Jordan watched in disgust at this show of male testosterone in the middle of a serious situation. "Oh, no!" She wailed putting her hands on her face. "What is it? What's wrong?" Andy rushed to her side fearful she might be hurting. "I forgot about my date tonight." He jerked back as if struck. "Is that all? God Jordan I thought that you might have been hurt or remembered something." "I did you dope!" She snapped in irritation at his belittling comment. To actually think that she was superficial enough to be worried about a date at a time like this was more than irritating. "I meant that he was here." "Who?" He looked at her in confusion. Jordan turned a guarded stare toward Andy. "Clark." She said his name flatly. "Jordan what are you talking about?" She rolled her eyes in exasperation. Are all men this idiotic at a time like this? She thought to herself. "I'm saying that Clark was in this room with me. That's how I found all of those explosives. He pointed them out to me and then we heard a noise so I hid in the closet. I'm not sure what happened after that it all seems to be a blur. I called to him but he didn't answer and I came out of the closet to search for him. I found Mrs. Sparks and that's when I got hit over the head." Andy along with two officers listened to her story. "There's nothing else you can think of like a shape or the sound of his breathing?" Jordan shook her head slowly. Officer Greer stepped in before Andy could question her further. "Well I think we have enough to go on for now. If you'll come with me Ms. Mackenzie I'll give you a ride back to your hotel and do a security check as well.

Jordan walked over to Mrs. Sparks who was strapped to a gurney waiting for them to take her to the hospital and gave the older woman a hug. "I'm very sorry this happened to you. I promise I will do everything in my power to find out who did this." She turned to look at Andy. For a long moment all she could do was stare at him because she was not sure just how she felt at that moment. Her heart told her to trust him but her instincts and head kept telling her that Andy was part of this thing somehow. He spoke first saving Jordan from having to do it. "I will check on you tomorrow and let you know how Mrs. Sparks is doing. I know that you don't believe me especially after tonight but I had nothing to do with what happened to you." Jordan gave a slight nod of her head but was not sure what she believed. She simply told him good-bye and for him to take good care of Mrs. Sparks. Andy watched her leave the crowded room with Officer Greer and felt his heart drop. I have to prove to her that I'm not involved and that we were meant for each other he thought. He knew she was the one the first time he watched her walk along the beach.
