JJ is sitting on the edge of the hot tub, his feet in the water. Cora is sitting next to him, splashing her feet around in the water. Pope and Kie are testing out the winch.
"How's it feeling?" Pope asks.
"It feels good." Kie says.
"Okay, I'm gonna pull you down."
"Okay."
"John B pulling a Houdini." JJ comments.
"Yeah, where is he?" Pope asks. "I got my scholarship interview tomorrow morning. We got to get this done."
"Speak of the devil." JJ says, seeing John B walk towards the chateau. "Hey! Dude, I set up the entire winch to pull up the gold and everything."
"No, he did not. I did that." Pope corrects as Cora giggles.
"Hey, John B." Kie says as the boy just storms into his house without a word.
"Okay, that's it?" JJ asks.
"Uh... what's that all about?" Pope asks.
"I was gonna ask you the same question." JJ says, getting off the hot tub and lifting Cora up, putting her on the ground. The four walk into the chateau and John B is rummaging around for something.
"You all right, man? What-- What's up?" Pope asks.
"What are you looking for?" Kie asks. John B goes over to the pull out bed and lifts the mattress up, grabbing JJ's gun. Cora frowns, shuffling closer to Kie.
"Bro, what's going on, man?" JJ asks. "John B, what do you need the gun for, man?" He asks, walking closer to John B. "Talk to us!" He exclaims. Cora yelps when John B shoves JJ onto the bed.
"John B, chill!" Kie yells. "What are you doing?"
"What, are you JJ now?" Pope asks as John B throws him into the table. Cora jumps, wide eyes staring after the boy.
"Shi-- are you okay?" Kie asks him.
"John B, what the hell are you doing?!" Kie asks, she chases after him, Pope close behind.
"We're fine." JJ tells his shaking sister. "Stay in here." He rushes out.
"John B, what the hell?!" Kie yells as they get outside to where John B is on JJ's bike. Cora runs outside, going up to the other three.
"Ward knows about the gold! He killed my dad." John B states making the others freeze as John B speeds off.
"John B!" Kie shouts, running after the bike, the two boys following, though they quickly stop.
"Shit!" JJ exclaims.
"J." Cora nervously calls.
"I told you to stay inside." JJ quietly chides, though he doesn't sound that angry. He walks over and picks her up, knowing she's freaked out.
"Is he gonna go kill Ward or something?" Cora asks.
"Wha-- no. No, he's not-- John B's not gonna kill anybody." Kie denies.
"What about Rosie?" Cora asks making the three teenagers' hearts drop.

Rosie is packing her backpack, getting ready to head to the chateau. She planned to go to the chateau by herself today, easily knowing the way there. She looks up when someone knocks on her door and opens it, the girl straightening up when Ward walks in.
"Hey, sweetheart." Ward greets, putting the glass of water he has on the nightstand. "I need to discuss something with you." He shuts the door.
"I was just leaving." Rosie says, grabbing her backpack.
