Gina tried to catches her breath while they headed back to the van. JJ slipped his hand into hers and lightly kissed her forehead. "Are you okay?" he asked quietly.

She nodded her head and looked up into his blue eyes. She ran her thumb along the new cut on his cheek from where the gunman had punched him. "The real question is, are you okay?"

"I'm fine," JJ forced a smile. "This is nothing new for me." Gina's heart broke for him all over again as they climbed into the front seats of John B's van.

"Welcome to crackhead waste land," Sarah muttered as they pulled up to the gunman, Barry's, house. It wasn't really a house, more like a really run down trailer, but that was what it was like living on this side of the island. While the Kooks were living in their million dollar mansions, the rest them were left to fight over scraps.

"I don't know about this, man," Pope worried.

Usually, Gina thought Pope was just over reacting but this time she agree with him. Whatever JJ had planned was gonna get them all in serious trouble.

"Dude, why are we at Barry's?" John B asked.

"This'll only take a second," JJ replied as he got out of the van.

"Where the hell do you think you're going?" Gina called out the window.

"Yo soy justicia," JJ replied.

"Did you glean anything from that?" Pope asked, also leaning out the window.

"Well, now we know JJ at least sort of paid attention in Spanish class," Gina's eyes still watched as the blond entered the run-down house. "But other than that, no."

"You know somebody should probably--" Kie started to say.

"Yeah, Gigi and I got it," John B replied as the two of them got out of the van and followed JJ. That was the thing about John B and Gina: they had been friends for so long that they didn't even have to talk to know what the other one was going to do, they just somehow knew. John B might have been an idiot, and Gina might want to hit him across the face most of the time, but he was still her best friend.

"I know you got a stash around here somewhere," JJ muttered as he dug through Barry's cabinets.

"Yeah, so what's your plan, slick?" John B asked.

"Well, as thou hath stealeth from us, we shall stealeth from ye," JJ said in a terrible accent.

"Yeah, well, that kinda got lost in translation," John B rolled his eyes as JJ continued to tear the place apart.

"An eye for an eye, you guys," JJ responded, finally looking at them.

"Okay, that's great, babe," Gina said sarcastically. "But what happens after you rob a drug dealer, huh? Cause I don't think you thought this through at all."
