Elias : Have you talked to Avery?
Victoria : No it's been awhile to be honest.
Elias : Do you still consider her your best friend?
Victoria : Of course I do! I miss her so much. Just that our conversations are always so long. I don't have much time to talk to her but I'll look for a time.
Elias : How's her mom?
Victoria : Still very sick.
Elias : Do you think she'll go to Missouri?
Victoria : Avery? I can almost assure you she wants to. It's probably the dick of her husband not letting her.
Elias : He's here.
Victoria : Enzo is here in Italy?!
Elias : Yes
Victoria : But Avery?
Elias : She's in Miami with some friends.
Victoria : Enzo let her go to Miami but not to Missouri?
Elias : If she'd go to Missouri, she'd go alone. Enzo doesn't like that.
Victoria : True

Everyone : Si (yes)
Enzo : Who is your leader?
Guard : The Dragon...
Enzo : Identity?
Guard : We don't know. We swear we don't know!
Enzo : Where does The Dragon go to?
Guard : We don't know what they look like. We don't know the gender. They communicate with me through phone calls. They use a distorted voice.
Enzo : Luc--phone ring-
Enzo : It's Lara, she better have something important!
-phone call-
Enzo : This better be important!
Lara : Vicky is in Italy! In your territory to be specific. She moved over there three years ago. Right after your wedding.
Enzo : Send me her location.
Lara : On it! -ends call-Enzo : Everyone drop your guns.

And they all did. They all fear Enzo.
They obeyed him without hesitation.Enzo : You! Stand behind Luciano.
Guard : Si...
Enzo : Now we kill them all Luc.Miami, Florida
Nathan : Is this your first time on a boat?
Avery : No but it's been awhile.
Nathan : Do you travel often?
Avery : No not really. Whenever Enzo has to go elsewhere, he doesn't take me. It surprises me he left me here.
Nathan : You don't have much freedom or choice do you?
Avery : His life takes that away.
Nathan : That's why you say you feel trapped? It's the life you live in.
Avery : Enzo is an important man in the business. He always has people behind him. Sometimes they try to use me to get to him. That's why I'm never alone. I don't have much control over my freedom.
Nathan : It must be hard.
Avery : You have no idea. On top of that I don't love him and-
Nathan : ...
Avery : It's not easy. My attempts to escape always fail. He'll find me anyway.
Nathan : I'm sorry you live like that.
Avery : It's okay......there's nothing I can do.Venice, Italy

Enzo : For how long?
Victoria : Three years
Enzo : The time I've been married for.

Enzo : No I didn't bring her.
Victoria : Give her hugs and kisses from me.
Enzo : It was nice seeing you. -walks away-O U T S I D E
Luciano : I don't think Vicky is a suspect. Everything she said is true.
Enzo : Just keep an eye on her. You never know.
