Cora holds Pope's hand as they walk out of The Wreck and towards the dock.
"Just for the record, I never doubted them." JJ states.
"I owe you five bucks." Kie admits.
"Hey, Kiara, I do need those setups done by five!" Anna yells out.
"There are other people that work here." Kie calls to her mother.
"But ain't none of them my children!"
"I feel that." Pope says. "On a deep, emotional level, I understand that." Cora giggles at him.
"So, are we going to the Bahamas or what?" JJ asks as they sit on the dock.
"Dude, there's no way we're getting to the Bahamas." Pope says.
"John B's gonna get nabbed sooner or later. So if we're gonna clear his name, we need to have done it, like, yesterday." Kie states.
"I'll tell you how we do it." JJ says.
"Oh, so you have it all planned out?" Pope asks.
"As a matter of fact, I do." JJ says. "We kidnap Rafe."
"I'm sorry, what?" Pope asks.
"We kidnap Rafe, tie him up, and stick the gun in his mouth and just wait until he starts squawking." JJ says.
"That doesn't sound fun." Cora says.
"It's not supposed to be fun. Well, for him, anyway." JJ says.
"You know, torture's a war crime." Kie says.
"I thought it was a good idea." JJ says.
"So how exactly do you plan on clearing John B's name from a prison cell? Because that's a felony." Pope states.
"All right, well, what do you got, Pope?" JJ asks. "I was just trying to keep it simple. You know, one stop, and we're done." He says, sitting down.
"Guys, all we need is a material witness." Pope states. "We saw Ward's plane fly right over our heads with the gold inside of it. He didn't fly it. If somebody else was flying it, they were there on the tarmac. They saw Peterkin get murdered. We just have to find whoever that was and get them to confess on record."
"How do we do that?" Kie asks.
"A little light espionage." Pope says.
"A little ghost recon." JJ smiles.
"Woogity-woogity." Pope says, wiggling his fingers.
"Give me some woogity, baby!" JJ exclaims, the three teenagers doing the little handshake.

"If this guy flew planes for Ward, he's gotta be pretty tight lipped." Pope states as Kie drives the car. JJ and Cora are sitting in the backsea.
"So direct approach gets my vote, then." JJ states, loading the gun.
"JJ, no."
"No! What?!"
"Guys! We gotta keep this simple or we'll never get John B off." JJ says.
"Or we just tickle the wire." Pope says.
"What?" Kie questions.
"We tickle the wire." Pope says. "I plant my phone in his car, and then we listen in on your ear pods." He explains as he puts the ear pods in his ears. "Say something." He holds his phone out to Kie.
"Something." Kie says into the phone, Pope hearing it through the ear pods.
"Okay, we have audio." Pope says.
