Briefcase and bag by her side, Lauren is waiting for the jet to arrive. She is leaving California tonight, and not coming back.

"Miss Reed?"

She turns around and comes face to face with a short, scrawny man. He's one of Cole's men from his attire, and he's gesturing down at her hands. She is still wearing her wedding ring, the one that now belongs to the anonymous body with her face.
