"How's it feeling?" Pope asked Kie who was up in the setup they had made to pull out the gold

"Feels good" she replied

"Taking you down" Pope announced

Meanwhile JJ and Blake sat on the edge of the new jacuzzi drinking beer.

"John B pullin' a Houdini" The blonde said

"Yeah, where is he? Pope asked

"I haven't heard from Sarah either so probably together" Blake announced walking towards Kie and Pope

"Well, I got my scholarship interview tomorrow. We gotta get this done!" Pope complained just when John b appeared from the street

"Speak of the devil. Hey! Dude, I set up the entire winch to pull up the gold and everything" JJ announced as John b passed by all his friends not even looking at them

"No, he did not. I did that" Pope corrected Jj

"And I helped" Blake added

John b was not stoping, he didn't even look at them so forget about listening.

"Okay, that's it?" JJ said confused when John b entered The Chateau

"Uh... what's that all about?" Pope wondered

"I was gonna ask you the same question" Jj responded

"Same" Blake said too

The four pogues went inside the house following John b to try to guess what had happened to him, but he was just looking for something through all his stuff.

"You all right, man? What's up?" Pope followed him

"What are you looking for?" Kie tried to get him to speak

Finally John b found Jj's gun hidden inside the couch and took it.

"No no no, leave that John b" Blake stepped forward

"John B, what do you need the gun for? Just...No!" Jj tried to stop his friend but John b didn't even flinch

"Talk to us!" Jj exclaimed when John b shoved him aggressively

"John B, chill!" Kie exclaimed

"What do you think you're doing?" Blake placed herself infront of him blocking his way

John b didn't even care and shoved her out of the way as he had with JJ and Pope.

"Hey man! What the hell are you doing?" Jj went after him

"You okay?" Kie asked Blake

"Yeah yeah, c'mon" she replied walking out of the door after John b

When the four got out of the house, John b was already in his motorbike turning on the engine.

"John B, what the hell?" Kie exclaimed

"Ward knows about the gold. He killed my dad" John b told them

And with that he was gone, leaving everyone behind.

"Shit!" JJ groaned

"What do we do?" Kie asked the pogues

"I think we should go to Tannyhill before he kills Ward" Blake told them

"Yeah, let's go"

"What now? We just go up to the front door and ask, "Hey, have you seen John B?"" JJ asked when the pogues pulled up to Tannyhill

"Look, he lives at Tannyhill now. It's plausible. Look, we can play dumb" Kie said
