As Helena turns around, she sees a woman behind her, the woman is George's sister, Jenna. 'What the hell are you doing in my house, Detective?!' shouts Jenna. 'I... I'm sorry' Helena manages to get out as she catches her breath. 'Why are you sneaking around in my house, huh? I nearly knocked you out!' says Jenna. 'I am just looking for clues' says Helena, now with her hand on her chest, 'just anything so I can get your brother out of prison and clear his name' she says. Jenna picks up the flashlight, then walks a few feet to the kitchen door and flips on the light switch. 'Well, why break into my house rather than ask me directly?' asks Jenna, who is a bit calmer now. 'I'm sorry, Miss Rogers, but I didn't see any other way. I just really want some evidence' says Helena, who lowers her hand and takes a step forward from the closet.
'Okay, but I told you everything I know and I don't think you will find any "evidence" of any sort in my house' says Jenna, as she walks to a table and takes something out of a draw. She takes out a pack of cigarettes and pulls out one, 'Got a light?' she asks. 'Sure' says Helena as she hands Jenna a pack of matches. Jenna lights her cigarette, 'I know about George's medical history, I paid a visit to Blueberry Medical Clinic. The nurse was reluctant to give them to me' says Helena. Jenna now sits down on a wooden chair and continues to smoke, just giving the detective a look then blowing out and looks forward. 'I need you to be honest with me, Jenna, and together we can get your brother free and catch The Collector' says Helena.
'Together? You cops are all the same, it's just about the job for you. Just get my brother free and forget The Collector' says Jenna. 'That's not true, I do care about you and your brother, George, and I just want justice served, meaning the innocent stays safe and the guilty put behind bars. I am risking my career here' says Helena as she goes closer to Jenna and leans slightly towards her, trying to gesture how genuine she is. Jenna takes a second to look Helena up and down, blows out smoke again then says; 'You got in trouble for working on this case?'. 'Well, yeah, actually I was never even on the case, just observing, and now I am on temporary suspension because the police chief found out I am not letting up in regards to this case' says Helena. Jenna chuckles a bit and smiles mischievously at Helena, 'Oh, so you kinda like a rebel right now' she says.
'Yeah, I guess so' says Helena. 'Okay, I'll tell you everything, just take a smoke with me first' says Jenna. Helena now looks confused, Jenna smiles and points to the table drawer, 'Take one for yourself and give me a new one then we smoke' she says. 'But I don't smoke' says a nervous Helena. 'I didn't either until a few days ago' laughs Jenna, 'come on, just one' she says. 'Okay, okay, just one then, but you have to tell me everything, alright?' says Helena. She takes 2 cigarettes out of the pack and hands one to Jenna, then Jenna lights Helena's cigarette and she coughs almost immediately, but as the 2 are talking by the table with Helena standing and Jenna sitting, their backs are towards the backdoor area, and by one of the windows, a dark figure is standing there, just watching them. Helena suddenly feels a chill in the back of her neck and looks back at the backdoor area, but there is no one.
Back at the prison, George is sitting at a table with D, Marcus and Keith in a cell and playing cards. This is an obvious perk provided by D, who is the boss, allowing them to bend the rules. Keith plays his hand, 'Take that bitches!' he says. The guys are also smoking while playing, Marcus hands a lit cigarette he's just smoked to George, who just lifts his hand and shakes his head. 'Alright, so you don't smoke? Cool' says Marcus. D is looking each of them in the eyes now, while they all await his turn, then he plays his hand, putting down the hand of cards and spreading them so everyone can see, all while still looking his opponents in the eyes. 'Shit, this nigga wins every damn time' says Keith. Everyone puts down their cards and D gets up from the table. 'What we gonna do about that other thang, D?' asks Keith.
