Kie, Sarah, and Rosie are standing around a small table at the anniversary party that Kie's parents are having.
"Are you kidding me? That doesn't even make sense." Kie says. "Ward is on this island? Like, the same island we are on?"
"Yes, he's back. Mm-hmm." Sarah nods.
"The second I see him, I'm turning him in, I swear." Kie says. "I don't know how you do it. Every time I wanna complain about my dad, I just think about your dad."
"Oh, glad to be of service." Sarah says.
"Works every time." Kie says. "It's great."
"I'm glad I could help." Sarah says, looking around. "You didn't tell me Topper was gonna be here." Sarah says after spotting the boy.
"Sorry. My mom invited, like, the whole island." Kie says.
"Shit." Sarah mutters.
"It's not a big deal." Kie dismisses.
"Shit."
"I'll keep him away."

"Here's the plan. Get the girls, go find Pope and Cleo, get down to South America as soon as possible. Cool?" John B asks they as they tie off the boat.
"Seems a bit vague, I gotta say, John B. Also, I don't got a passport, dog." JJ says. John B gets out of the boat.
"Hey, look, don't bore me with the details, all right?" John B asks. "We'll figure it out later." He says as JJ looks towards the party at The Wreck. "Hey, look at me." He whistles.
"Yeah." JJ turns back to him.
"I'm gonna get Sarah. You're gonna get Kie, little rendezvous mission. Back on the boat, get out of here." John B says.
"Look, the other day, Mike and I kind of got into a little bit of a tiff, all right? And if I go over there right now and Mike sees me, he's not gonna let Kiara out of his sight, boom. Mission blown, we can't go down to South America."
"Look." John B grabs JJ's head. "Just don't get seen."
"You're right. I'll stay here." JJ says.
"No. No, no. That's not what I was saying." John B says.
"I'll stay right here. I got your six." JJ promises.
"Yep. No, that's great." John B says.
"I'll keep her running, dog."
"Yeah. Yeah, great." John B rolls his eyes.

"Oh, great." Kie comments, noticing Topper walk over. "Um, well, we're gonna go over there." Kie points, grabbing Rosie's hand.
"Please don't." Sarah begs.
"We won't go far." Kie says.
"Okay." Sarah says.
"Just say the word." Kie says.
"Hi." Sarah politely smiles at Topper as he walks up.
"Hey, how's it going?" Topper asks.
"Good. How are you?" Sarah asks.
"Good. Um, I'm-- well, I don't wanna blow your cover or anything, so I'll just keep it lowkey." Topper says. "I know we're not public or anything. You know what I mean? Uh... hey, Kie! How are you?"
"Oh, hey. I didn't even see you, bro." Kie says.
"Uh, did you do these decorations here?" Topper asks. "It's beautiful."
