"Yes. First his mother, than Tom, now we're dragging my colleague into this." He gestures to Sparrow's father.
Richard slowly blinks. "You dragged him in."
Stephen takes a step into the room. Lars shifts to be in the center of the doorway.

"Don't create lies." He gestures to Anthony. "Tell him so we can be done quickly."
Anthony looks straight at Richard. "I can't reverse the charge. They stand."
"But you could. If he would let you."
Stephen takes a couple more quiet steps in, placing himself close behind Angie. He smiles at her.

Anthony's eyes narrow. "No. It isn't possible."
"It is! Then I'll return mother and Tom and none of you have to see me ever again."
Stephen sets a hand lightly on her shoulder and leans to whisper. "Are you as lost as I am?"

"No." RIchard's father shakes his head. "You can't get away with this."
Richard frowns up at him. "But you can?"
Anthony's eyes widen slightly then narrow again. "Richard."
Stephen smiles at her and whispers. "Don't cry out. It'll just cause chaos." His other hand moves towards her back, a tiny hand gun slipping into his palm from his sleeve.

"No! I'm sick of this. Of the threats. Of being captured. Of worrying."
"Then return my family and go back to Babel," his father replies. "I'd be happy to leave you there."
"Sorry," he whispers. "Job's a job."

"I won't return them. I'll keep them until the charges are dropped. So you have to."
"No. I don't think I do." Richard's father looks towards Stephen.
He continues to whisper as he nods at Richard's father. "Earning some money so I can buy some beer tonight."

"You do. You have... you have until the end of the week." Richard sets his jaw.
His father smirks. "And you have until tomorrow."
"It won't come to that, will it?"
