"They're going to be looking for the four of us together now," Jameson says as they exit the tunnel. "We need to split up. You and Mia head south, Dom go east, and I'll go north to lead them away."
"No," Mia says as she shakes her head.
"James is right," Brian says as he looks at Mia. "Look how lucky we just got. What happens next time? We have no choice but to split up."
"I'm pregnant," Mia says causing Brian and Dom to freeze, while Jameson smiles. Mia looks between Brian, Jameson, and Dom. "I already lost my family once. I'm not going through that again."
"Are you kidding me?" Brian asks as he grabs Mia's arm.
"No," Mia answers him with a smile before he kisses her then hugs her.
"I'm not going anywhere. Okay?" Brian tells her causing her to smile before he wraps an arm around her waist.
"James? Dom? Promise me we stick together," Mia says as they turn to face them.
"I promise," Jameson tells her before they walk over and pull all of them into a hug. "Our family just got bigger."

Hobbs' team collects evidence from where their targets had been staying. "Something doesn't add up," Elena says as she looks through a file, causing Chloe to nod in agreement. "The Toretto's and O'Conner. They stay when they are supposed to run, they steal gas then give it away? Now they're killing federal agents? It doesn't make any sense."
"Here's what makes sense," Hobbs says as he takes the file from her before throwing it. "All these people are names on a list. They come up, we take them down. Not a phone call more, not a bullet less. Wilkes, we get anything?"
"Standard forensics. Shoe prints. Hair and fiber. Prints are all over the car," Wilkes answers him before bringing him some papers.
"Anything else?" Hobbs asks as he takes the papers.
"Yeah, we tracked the owner of the vehicle ID," Wilkes answers him. "There are a couple of shell companies in between, but we finally traced it back to a corporation owned by investor down here named Hernan Reyes."
"Investor?" Chloe asks as she raises her eyebrows. "If there's anything illegal happening in Rio, Reyes is involved."
"Okay, then so are we," Hobbs says with a nod. "If he could get us any closer to our guys, I want everything on him. Chato, you're on the roof. I want you on overwatch in case somebody comes back for something. Mac, give me a cross check on Reyes, full specs. If he goes to the john, I want to know how many times he shakes it."
"You got it, boss," Mac says before he walks over to the computer.
"Wilkes, Fusco! Let's put all this mess back together," Hobbs orders as he looks around at the car pieces.
"That's going to take a while," Fusco says as he looks between the car and Hobbs.
"Then you better get started," Hobbs tells him. "They were taking apart this car for a reason. Let's put it back together and find what's missing."

Jameson picks them up some beer and food before finding them a place to stay for the night. Mia sleeps on the only cushioned chair in the room. Brian stands in the doorway as he watches Mia sleep. Jameson and Dom stand on the balcony as Jameson stares at the chip in his hand. "Hey, Dom, James, what do you remember about your father?" Brian asks as he sits in a chair out on the balcony.
"Our father," Dom says thoughtfully as he leans against the table that's on the balcony. "He used to...he used to have a barbecue every Sunday after church. For anybody in the neighborhood. If you didn't go to church, you didn't get any barbecue."
"Every single day he was in the shop, and every single night, he was at the kitchen table with Mia helping her with her homework. Even after Mia went to sleep, he'd stay up a few more hours so he could learn the next chapter and help her the next day," Jameson explains as he and Dom share a smile. "I remember everything about our father. Everything."
"That's just it," Brian says as he looks down. "I don't remember shit about my dad. I don't remember him yelling. I don't remember him smiling. To be honest with you, I don't remember what the hell he looked like. I don't remember. He just...he just was never there."
"You ain't going to be like that, Brian," Dom tells him as he looks over at him.
"Besides we'll kick your ass if you are," Jameson says with a smirk before walking over to the window and looking at his little sister. Brian goes back to looking at Mia, knowing they can't keep living the life that they are living.
"We can't keep running, James, Dom," Brian says as he looks over at Dom and Jameson. "We got to get out. We got to get out now."
"You're right. Here's how we're going to do it," Jameson says as he holds up the chip. "We're going to use this. We're going to do one last job. We're going to take all of Reyes' money. Every dime of it, and disappear. Forever." Jameson sets the chip down in front of Brian and Dom.
"New passports. New lives with no more looking over our shoulder. And we're just going to buy our freedom," Brian explains as he agrees with Jameson's plan.
"That's right," Dom agrees.
"You realize we're talking about going up against the most powerful guy in all of Rio?" Brian asks Jameson and Dom, making sure they didn't want to back out.
"Yes, we are," Jameson answers him with a smirk.
"Then we're going to need a team," Brian says with a smile.
