At LAX Airport, Gudmund and his family wait for someone right outside of the airport. "Where are they, where are they?" Astrid asks.
"Come down, sweetie," Aurora says.
"There they are," Gudmund says, seeing three people coming down on the escalator. One of them is a man the same age as Gudmund, a woman three years younger than the man, and a boy that is eleven years old.
"Reidar," both Astrid and Ryan call to their third cousin and hug him.
"Marte," Aurora hugs her friend.
"Knut, great to see you again, buddy," Gudmund says, greeting his army buddy and second cousin. Knut Saksen grandpa Saksen and Gudmund's grandma Thoresen are brother and sister. "And you too, Marte and Reidar."
"It's great to see you and your family again," Knut says.
"Come on, let's get your things, and we can head on to the house," Aurora says, and the Thoresen family helps the Saksen family load their bags in the car.
Later at the house, the adults laugh, "I can't believe that you did that to Sigmund," Aurora says to both Gudmund and Knut.
"Well, he did say we wouldn't be able to make it for twenty-four hours in the woods," Gudmund says.
"Serves him right though, once we threw him into the lake," Knut says.
"But wasn't it winter when that happened?" Marte asks.
"Yeah, and once our dads found out, we had to stay out in the cold with just underwear on," Gudmund says.
"Weren't you guys sixteen when you did that?" Aurora asks.
"Yep, and Sigmund were nineteen," Gudmund says.
"I still say Sigmund deserved it after setting those traps and trying to scare us," Knut says and takes a sip of his drink.
"So, how is it up in Washington DC?" Aurora asks.
"Really nice," Marte answers, "And I am glad we can be on a break."
"We are thinking about moving down here in California," Knut says.
"Why?" Gudmund asks.
"My career. I spoke to your cousin," Knut says. "Hakon wants me to work at the Embassy of Norway in San Francisco."
"Wow," Gudmund and Aurora say.
"But you are already one of the bodyguards for the Norway Ambassador," Aurora says.
Knut smiles, "Yeah, but Hakon called me from his office at the Interpol saying that I would be needed out there. I did think that he wanted to be rid of me. But nope, he wants my skills for when the ambassador visits California."
"So, are you going to take the job?" Gudmund asks.
Knut walks to sit next to his wife and puts his arm around her shoulder. "I'll get a bigger wage, and we can be closer to you guys and Irene and her family."
Gudmund sits back in his chair and takes a drink of his soda. He looks out of the window and sees the kids playing in the yard.
Later, Gudmund and Knut are in Gudmund's home office. "Wow, you have lots of photos and awards in here," Knut says appreciatively. "So," he looks at his old friend. "What did you really call me here for?"
Gudmund pulls out the envelope he got five days ago from Xing-Fu and puts it on his desk. "I got this from a criminal my team was after five days ago. I've looked at it ten times, but I can't figure it out."
Knut opens the envelope and reads what the papers say. "This is written in Kven," Knut says.
"Kven… Sigmund studied those fifteen years ago." Gudmund goes over to Knut. "Can you read what it says?"
Knut starts to look over what it says. "A little bit, but why do you want me to look at it?"
Gudmund closes the door and the shade on his window. He walks over to Knut, "I've been getting some old evidence that Sigmund gathered on Klaus Krueger. I got a phone call back on the sixth from some guy from an untraceable phone. I ended up finding evidence that maybe Sigmund is alive."
Knut look confuses. "But we buried him and his wife. They are dead. What else do you have?"
Gudmund brings out the rest of the evidence he has gathered. "I still have some in my office at work. And listen to this video recording," Gudmund slides a DVD into the DVD player. He turns on the TV and starts the video.
The TV monitor shows Sigmund sitting in front of the recorder. "I am Sigmund Thoresen, and I have managed to gather a lot of evidence on Klaus Krueger and his empire. I have hidden many pieces of evidence all over the place in case he comes after me. I am making this video to help the ones that I choose to gather the evidence. That means my little brother Gudmund and my baby sister Irene," Sigmund says, and Gudmund stops the video.
"Sigmund put some clues in some videos and had them hidden away."
"Does Irene know about this?" Knut asks.
Gudmund turns to his friend. "I called her after I went to Sigmund's old cabin after I got that call. She didn't want anything to do with this, but I managed to get her to look at some evidence. I had a feeling she would hate me for sending her this, but I'll show her once she gets here. She'll be here this weekend with her family."
"Are your parents coming?" Knut asks.
"They were but called last night saying my grandparents are sick, so they are staying in Norway. Hakon is very busy with his job in the Interpol and the UN."
Knut thinks of something. "You talked to Hakon about your findings on Sigmund, right?"
Gudmund looks at him. "Yes, I gave him a call a week ago about it. He told me to keep him in the loop. I called you here because you work as a bodyguard to Norway's ambassador and still have connections to those that speak all of the languages from Norway. I only speak Norwegian."
"I thought your dad said if you didn't take a sedentary language from Norway, he would cut you off," Knut says.
"Well, I told him I would learn Japanese instead," Gudmund says.
"Nozomi speaks that, and you only did because of Aurora's foster dad." Gudmund looks at Knut, as he is right. "When are Irene and her family supposed to be here?"
"Later around dinner time, while you guys arrive before lunch," Gudmund answers.
Over at the pINPOINt HQ, Ashton is looking over some files. Maisie enters his office. "Ashton, we got an alert from one of your undercover agents."
Ashton looks up at her and asks, "Which agent?"
"Ethan Gray. He is undercover in the Purple Cougar Gang."
Ashton gets up. "Ok, let's check out what the alert is about," he says, and the two walk over to the monitor.
Maisie opens the alert, and it's a message from Ethan. "It seems like he made it up to the next rank. He'll be with one of the top gang members to make a drug deal. He doesn't know what the drug is yet, but he knows where and when it's going down."
Ashton looks at the whole message. "Ok, set a meeting up for him with Derek and Elena. We can have it tonight if Ethan can do it."
"Sending him the message, and we'll hear back from him in a bit," Maisie says. After a few minutes, Ethan messages back. "Ok. He can meet tonight at eleven."
"Good, I'll call Derek and Elena and let them know," Ashton says.
"What about Gudmund?"
"No, it's his day off. I'll inform him tomorrow. Be sure we get the information we need. We have to find out who the leader of the Purple Cougar Gang is."
Maisie nods and goes back to work on looking at the evidence that Ethan has gathered so far. Ethan has sent them lists of names and photos of each member with their ranks.
Later back at the Thoresen family household, they are eating dinner. Gudmund's sister Irene and her family arrived an hour ago. Irene's husband, Viktor, and their eleven-year-old son, Oddmund, are there too.
"So once Sigmund, Gudmund, and Knut got through the course, I went right after them," Irene says, telling a story. "My dad didn't want me to do it yet, but I wanted to show off my brothers and our cousin. And I managed to get through it faster than them."
"Weren't you fifteen at the time?" Aurora asks.
"Yeah, but I wanted to show my brothers and Knut that I am just as good as them."
Knut smiles. "Yep, she sure did and made us look like fools," he says and takes a bite of his pork.
Irene looks at him. "Really, I thought I made you look like a fool back when I beat your best score in the shooting ranges."
Knut rolls his eyes, "Man, it's hard to keep up with you, Thoresen, since both of our families go back four generations being close friends and families." He sets his fork down and looks right at Irene. "Ok, how about tomorrow? We'll see who's better? We'll go to a gun range and find out."
Irene smiles. "Deal, and how about we make a bet as well?"
Gudmund sighs and looks at his little sister and his closest friend. "Why is it that whenever you two are in a room together, it has to become a competition? Even when Sigmund was alive, it was with him too."
Both Irene and Knut look at him and agree. "Yeah, it always is, isn't it?" Knut says.
"I guess we got it from our dads. They always competed with each other too," Irene says.
Soon after dinner, Gudmund, Knut, and Irene are in Gudmund's office. Knut and Irene sit in chairs in front of the desk. Gudmund turns the TV and gets one of the DVDs ready to be played. He sits in his desk chair. "This one was labeled for Irene and me to watch. Knut, I want you to watch too as I am sure you are needed for this." Knut nods, and Gudmund presses play.
The video starts, and Sigmund sitting in front of the video recorder. "Gudmund, Irene, if you are watching this, that means you found my clues. And I am dead as well. I did, in fact, keep all of the copies of the evidence I have on Klaus, but I believe he isn't the one we really need. We need to take him down, but I have been studying some other cold cases, like Aimee Murphy's husband's death. I was looking through his case and found something. I noticed this one guy in some crime scene photos. He was there while the accident happened and didn't leave until after the scene cleaned up. I even found out that he was at the funeral too." The video shows some photos that show the accident of Oliver Murphy. In the photo is a red circle around a person.
After some more photos appear on the screen, Gudmund stops the video. "That picture… I know who that is," he says as his sister and best friend look at him. "It's Nevel Gustafsson, the son of Nils Gustafsson."
"Nils Gustafsson," Irene says, putting her hand on her chin. "I remember him. He killed Aimee Murphy, Ashton's little sister."
"Yep, and you both heard that Nils Gustafsson and his brother died not too long ago." The two nod and Gudmund presses play on the video.
On-screen, Sigmund appears again, "Ok, so it's been a while now, and I figured out that this guy's name is Nevel Gustafsson, and he is the son of this current leader of the Gustafsson family, the crime family that the pINPOINt been tracking down, and now we might be able to finally takedown, but pINPOINt is manly a task force for tracking down big-time criminals and solve big crimes. We solve cold cases and help take care of VIPs. But there is a person in my way to deal with Nevel, and that is Klaus. If I manage to arrest Klaus, I can get to Nevel. Nevel's father and uncle will indeed get in the way, but I'll make sure I get them too, so I am planting an agent undercover to be one of them. The date is currently October 23, 2010. I have his birth name, but I am not going to say his undercover name. I have his name in one of my files hidden in my office at my cabin."
The DVD ends, and Gudmund takes the DVD out. "There are ten DVDs in all that he made. I am going to go and check out the cabin later in the week when I can." Both Irene and Knut look at each other and then back at Gudmund.
"Let's see the next one," Knut says, and Irene agrees.
About one minute until eleven, Derek and Elena is waiting for Ethan. They are in Azusa, standing outside of a building. Derek looks around the area, "Where is he?" he asks.
"Derek, Elena," Ethan calls out from an alley. Derek and Elena walk to the alley and sees Ethan. "Sorry for keeping you guys waiting."
"That is ok, so what you got?" Derek asks.
Ethan pulls out a big yellow envelope and hands it to Elena, and she looks at what's inside. "Are these the members?" Elena asks.
"Yes, and I managed to figure out what the drugs were. But I found something else out that you might want instead."
"What would that be?" Derek asks.
"The Purple Cougar leader is going to be meeting some guy that will send some funding to the gang."
"What kind of funding?" Derek asks.
"The kind that will give them better weapons and drugs from all around the world," Ethan answers. "Also, I believe that they'll get a new base."
"Did you get the name of the guy funding their weapons and drugs?" Elena asks.
"Not yet. I still need to find out who the leader is. I got every member of the gang with their ranks, but there is one last person. But I can try tomorrow as they say I'll be at the location of the meet. The leader will be there, and so will his partner. It will be in Redondo Beach; I'll send the address later. With this meeting, there will be some weapons given to the Purple Cougar."
"Nicely done, Ethan. Good work and I am sure Gudmund and Ashton would be happy," Derek says.
"Thanks," he says and looks around quickly. "I am hoping that with this, I can be done. I do miss my family, and I want to go back to them. My youngest sixth birthday is in two weeks. I don't want to miss her birthday. I already missed last year, and I don't want to miss it this year."
"I understand, Ethan," Derek says. "I have a daughter as well; I would hate to miss her birthday. Once you get what you need from the Purple Cougar, just wait until after the meeting and then get out of there. Call me as soon as the meeting is over."
Ethan nods and hands them another envelope, "This also has the location of the house where the leader lives. I was able to get it without anyone knowing."
Elena opens the envelope and finds an address. "The location is in Beverly Hills," she says.
Derek looks at the address. "This is close to where Hazel's parents live." He looks back at Ethan. "Thanks, we'll try and get back in touch."
The next morning at the pINPOINt Headquarters, everyone but Gudmund is in front of the monitor. Maisie brings up on the monitor the list of the members of the Purple Cougar. "Alright, I was able to run their names through the police database along with the FBI list," Maisie says.
"Why the FBI list?" Ashton asks.
"Because two of them weren't in the police database," Nozomi answers and brought up the two. "Gabriel Brown and Scott Patel. The two are known to have murdered two federal agents last year. They are still wanted, and they have big rap sheets. Once they got named for murdering two federal agents, all of their records moved to the FBI database."
"Who did they kill?" Derek asks.
"Shami Khan and Jacob Aharoni. This happened a year ago," Maisie answers. "Shami and Jacob grew up together as best friends and brothers as they didn't have any siblings. They died when they went after Gabriel and Scott."
"Did Shami and Jacob have families?" Elena asks.
"Shami was married and had two kids, both boys. Jacob had two kids also, a boy and a girl. His wife passed away five years ago, and his kids are currently living with Jacob's former sister-in-law," Nozomi answers. "Gabriel and Scott never got caught because they disappeared."
"And now they are back with the Purple Cougars," Ashton says.
Then Gudmund, Irene, and Knut enter, and everyone looks at them. "I thought you were going to stay home on your weekend off?" Derek says.
"We decided to come by," Gudmund says.
"Irene," Nozomi greets Irene, and the two hug each other.
"Hey, Nozomi. I was hoping to see you at dinner last night," Irene says.
"Sorry, I was busy, but my family and I will come tonight for dinner if the offer is still on the table," she answers.
Irene smiles. "Great, I want to see your kids again."
Nozomi hugs Knut, and he hugs her back. "Nice to see you again, Knut."
"Same here, Nozomi," Knut smiles.
Gudmund inspects the information on the monitor. "What case are you guys working on now?"
"We got a message yesterday from Ethan Gray. He gave us lots of information last night from the Purple Cougars," Ashton answers. "At about eleven, he should be meeting up with some members of the gang and possibly with the gang's leader, so we can learn who he is."
"We have his address and know where the leader lives," Maisie says. "Ethan was able to swipe the address so he can give it to us. I looked up the owner, and this person appears."
The monitor shows a man in his early forties. On his face, he has a tattoo of a purple cougar on the left side. His right eye is pure white, and there is a scar across the eye. "His name is Carl Lundgren; he's been wanted for twenty years," Nozomi says. "He has done lots of crimes since he was younger. He has a long rap sheet and somehow managed to get free. He once took down fifteen cops at once and ended up killing five of them."
"Ok, now we know who the leader is; why are we still trying to figure it out from the meeting that Ethan is going to?" Gudmund asks.
Nozomi smirks a bit, "Because of this," she enhances another photo, and it's a woman about the same age as Carl. "This is Carl's wife, Su-dae. She is Korean. She is also part of the gang, and we believe she is also a leader."
"Do they have kids?" Irene asks.
"Nope," Maisie answers, "They never had any kids. I guess that's a good thing, right?"
"It is. If they had any kids, they would come after anyone who takes down their parents," Knut says. "I have seen it happen back in DC from time to time in all of the reports I get and background checks. I see many 'eye for an eye' types of kills."
Ashton pulls Gudmund to the side to talk to him. "So, did you show Irene and Knut about what you got so far on Sigmund?"
"Yes, and I think Sigmund has evidence on Nevel as well because he talked about the accident your late brother-in-law was in."
Ashton looks confused. "What are you talking about?"
"In this one DVD that we watched last night, Sigmund talked about the accident that Oliver was in. I got a feeling that maybe we should move the focus on Nevel instead."
Ashton starts to think. "I do want to take Nevel down for killing my sister."
"Also, what if Sigmund had evidence on Nevel and Klaus when he died?"
Ashton thinks aloud, "We didn't get any evidence that put Klaus anywhere near Sigmund and Trine's deaths. And Nevel did manage to frame his father for Aimee's death."
"Boss, you might want to look at this," Maisie calls out to Gudmund, and everyone gathers around. "We just got a message from Ethan; it says the meeting is going to happen early. He posted the place as well." She turns and looks at her boss to figure out the next steps.
"Locate the place and set up some officers wearing undercover clothing. Tell them not to attack until I give the order," Gudmund says, and he turns to his sister and best friend. "Would you both like to come?"
The two look at each other and back to Gudmund, smiling. "Hell yeah," the two say.
Later under Hermosa Beach Pier, Ethan is with some of the members of Purple Cougar. Three people walk up to them in black suits; two are males, and the third is a woman. The woman walks up. "Su-dae?" she asks, and a Korean woman walks up to her.
"Florence," Su-dae says.
"Did you bring what my boss asked for?" Florence asks.
Su-dae snaps her fingers, and one of the goons walks up with a silver metal briefcase. He hands it to Su-dae, and she takes the case from him. She holds it up and opens the case. Inside the case are lots of heroin. "This should be enough. Now, where is the money?" Su-dae asks.
"It will be wired to you. My boss wants to know what you did with your mole."
Su-dae scrunches her face up. "Mole? What are you talking about?"
Florence smirks, "The mole that is hiding in your gang, sending information to the cops," she says. "Like a spy member of Intelligence Criminal Police Organization, pINPOINt."
Su-dae looks back at the six members of her gang behind her then turns back around. "How did you figure out we have a mole that we don't know about?"
"My boss is a people person. He knows all. And," she snaps her finger, and one of her goons walks up and shows them a tablet. Video footage starts, showing Ethan meeting with Derek and Elena last night. Ethan's eyes widen, and everyone turns to him.
With the others, Gudmund is watching. "I think he got made," he says and grabs the radio. "Ok, everyone gets ready on my say. As soon as they pull out their guns, we go in. We can't let any of them getaway."
Ethan looks from the video to the others before him. Su-dae looks from the video to Ethan looking really pissed off. "You are a traitor," she pulls out an FN Five-seven.
"Now! Move out," Gudmund orders over the radio.
Police sirens start to be heard, and many officers are coming out of their surroundings. Florence, Su-dae, and their goons look around. Before Su-dae could do anything, Florence shoots at Ethan, and Ethan falls to the ground. She then quickly shoots the members of the Purple Cougars. "The deal is now off," she says and leaves with her goons.
Derek rushes over and kneels at Ethan's side. "Ethan, hold on, I am calling for help," he says. He pulls out his cell and makes the call. "This is Detective Fischer. I need a bus at the Hermosa Beach Pier. I got a wounded officer and a couple of wounded gangbangers." Derek looks at Ethan, moaning in pain.
Florence gets to the lifeguard memorial sculptures and gets jumped by Irene. Florence readies to shoot at her, but Irene manages to do a roundhouse kick to knock the gun out of her hand. "Who are you?"
"Major Irene Bergfalk," Irene answers.
Florence smiles. "Oh yeah, the little sister of Sigmund and Gudmund Thoresen. In fact, I have met your oldest brother before. I hope we take down your whole family soon."
Irene growls, "Don't ever talk about Sigmund, got it? Unless I have questions."
"But you do have questions," Florence says, smiling. "You want to know where this new evidence is coming from about Klaus. And you want to know if Sigmund is alive. And guess what," Florence puts her guard down. "So does Nevel."
"Then we'll be taking you in for some questioning on Nevel," says Ashton, as he has his gun out, pointing to Florence from behind.
Florence smiles, "You may arrest me, but you can't charge me." She put her hands up, and Ashton arrests her.
The others manage to capture some of the goons. Su-dae manages to get away, but they were able to identify her. Gudmund calls Aurora to get a warrant for Su-dae's arrest and to search her house.
Later in the interrogation room at pINPOINt headquarters, Florence is sitting in the middle of the room. Ashton and Derek enter the room with Knut. "Major Bergfalk isn't going to join us?" she asks.
The three look at each other and then back to Florence. "I figured maybe we could chat first. Now tell us, where is Nevel Gustafsson?" said Ashton.
"Not going to tell you. Where is my lawyer?" Both Derek and Knut look at each other and then back to the woman. "And why do you need to know where he is? What could he have done wrong?"
"He graduated from college early and is now the leader of the Gustafsson crime family," Derek answers. "His uncle and father died on the same day, then he became the leader of the family and graduated."
"He was done with that school a long time ago. He is super smart after all," she deflects.
Nozomi enters the room before they can continue, declaring, "Ashton, we have a problem."
The three leave the room and walk into the hall with Nozomi. "What is it?" Ashton asks.
"Florence's lawyer has arrived and demands that she is released," she answers.
"Well, he can wait until after we talk to her," Knut says.
"And Nevel is here too," she says.
"What!" The three men say, shocked.
"Nevel came with his lawyer, who is also Florence's lawyer. They are saying she didn't do anything wrong to be held by us."
Ashton grunts, "Look, we got her on dealing, and she shot an officer. We even got her running from the cops and trying to kill another cop."
"And those are just your words," says Nevel as he appears around the corner. Ashton and the others look up at him.
Ashton growls, "How did you get down here?"
"I got a pass from the front, and I want you to release Florence," Nevel says.
The lawyer hands Ashton a paper, and he looks at it. Ashton looks over it a couple of times and looks back at them. "You got to be kidding me. Are you really going to say that we have no evidence of what we saw? Florence was there, and we got video of her dealing with drugs."
"Did she complete the deal?" the lawyer asks, and Ashton looks at him.
"No, because she decided to shoot one of my undercover agents," Ashton says.
Nevel smiles. "Lieutenant Watson, I remember that you need the evidence that shows Florence is doing the dealing."
"I got video footage that shows that she was," Ashton's cell phone rings, and he answers it. "Yes, Maisie?"
"Ashton, something happened to the video footage on the drug deal," Maisie says. "It's not showing Florence, but it does show Su-dae doing the dealing and shooting Ethan."
Ashton can't believe what he is hearing and looks at Nevel, who is smirking. "Thank you, Maisie," Ashton hangs up. "Derek, let Florence go," Ashton says.
Derek releases Florence, and she hugs Nevel for freeing her. Nevel looks back at the four detectives. "If I were you four and the rest of your team, I would keep a closer eye on the Purple Cougar because I am sure at their leader's house, you might find something. Look in their basement; there is something you want to use to put them away for life."
After Nevel, Florence, and their lawyer leaves, Ashton calls Gudmund. "Gudmund, are you at Su-dae's house?"
"Yes, we just arrived. Why?"
"Nevel and his lawyer came and freed Florence, but he said something odd. When you search the house, check the basement. Knut, Derek, and I will meet you guys there." Ashton hangs up and turns to the three standing there. "Nozomi, go and work with Maisie and try and find out why we can't arrest Florence anymore. Knut, Derek, let's go back up our friends." The three nod and they all go right to work.
Gudmund arrives at Carl Lundgren's house. He looks at Irene and Elena, and the three nod. They get out of the car and walk up to the front door. Gudmund rings the doorbell and waits until Carl opens the door. With no answer, Gudmund rings the doorbell again. He looks at Elena. "Go around back and—" before he could finish, a gun fires. "You two go around to the back. I'll kick the door down," he says, and they rush to the back on different sides of the house.
Gudmund kicks the door in and readies his gun. He walks inside and keeps his gun up. "Carl Lundgren, it's pINPOINt," he calls out. He walks under an archway to a den and sees Carl lying on the floor. He walks up to him and checks his pulse. Dead. He hears something behind him and turns. He walks out of the room and starts to explore the rest of the house. Then, Elena and Irene enter through the back. They enter the kitchen and split up. Elena marches up the stairs to check the second floor. Irene stays on the main floor while Gudmund enters the basement to see what Ashton's message was about. Once in the basement, he sees that it's a nice rec room. "Ok, it looks like a normal basement, just like at my house." He walks to some bookcases and starts to feel around them to see if there is a door behind them. So far, none of the three have one. He goes back upstairs and sees both Irene and Elena. "Anything?"
The girls shake their heads. "We couldn't find anyone or anything," Elena huffs.
Irene sees Carl's lifeless body in the den and asks, "Is he dead?"
"Yep, a shot in the head. It seems that someone managed to getaway. I heard someone behind me, then he or she was gone."
"Should I call Chelsea to bring in her team?" Elena asks.
"Yes, and call Butch, too," Gudmund says and looks at his sister. "Irene, call the Beverly Hills PD and tell them to get here fast."
Later, Ashton, Derek, Knut, Chelsea, Butch, and the Beverly Hills PD scan the house and yard for any clues. Butch finishes going over Carl's body and places it into a body bag. Chelsea manages to find enough evidence in the computers that will put every Purple Cougars behind bars for life.
Irene walks up to her brother after she ends her call. "Gudmund, I just got a call from my team. We just gained evidence on several gangs and mobs in the Northern California area."
Gudmund looks confused. "How and where did your team get them?"
"They are mostly on the leaders, and they all came from some unknown, untraceable email addresses. Gudmund, they are on my top ten lists for Northern California."
Before Gudmund can say anything, his cell rings, and he answers it, "Gudmund." His eyes widen. "What? Ok, I'll call you back, Maisie." Gudmund hangs up and looks at Irene. "It seems like we also got our top ten also."
Later at the pINPOINt HQ, they are going over everything they gathered. Chelsea wasn't able to find a match to the bulletin, Carl. Butch finishes with Carl's body and ships it to the Los Angeles County Department of Coroners. Maisie and Nozomi manage to organize all of the new information they have gotten. Gudmund ends a call in his office and walks out.
He sees everyone working hard, and Knut walks up to him. "I just got off of the phone with the Norway Ambassador. He was planning on visiting Los Angeles with his family. I had to let him know what I was doing so the security team will be ready."
"Well, if he visits soon, let me know a week ahead of time, ok? I'll talk to the LAPD and LASD," Gudmund smiles. "Thanks for helping with our case."
"Sure, hope you guys catch Su-dae soon," the two shake hands.
Ashton walks up to them, "Well, Su-dae is still on the run and hiding somewhere, but we'll find her and put her away for good." Both Gudmund and Knut nod.
Later that night, Gudmund's family, Knut's family, Irene's family, and Nozomi's family are having dinner at Gudmund's house. Everyone is chatting and having a good laugh. Gudmund's house phone rang, and he answers it. "Hello, Thoresen Residence… Hey dad, what's up?" His smile fades away, "When did it happen?" After listening to his dad for a bit, he says bye and hangs up. He walks back into the dining room, and everyone looks at him.
"Hey, big brother, what's the long face?" Irene asks.
"That was dad on the phone," Gudmund begins, "Grandma and Grandpa Thoresen passed away this morning."
Everyone gasps. "How did they both die?" Knut asks, breaking the silence.
"They both had some kind of flu, and they died an hour apart," Gudmund sits down. "They went up to their room to rest for a bit. Dad and mom were in the living room when they went to take a nap. Five hours later, mom and dad went to check on them and found them not breathing. They died in their sleep an hour apart."
"Did dad say when the funeral might be?" Irene asks.
"It will be in a week," Gudmund answers. "I'll start booking flights in the morning."
"I got to call mom," Irene says and leaves the room.
"I'll come with you," Viktor says and follows his wife.
Aurora looks at the kids. "Astrid, take your brother and your cousins to the other room and play, ok?"
"Ok, mom. Come on, guys," Astrid says, and the kids leave the room.
Gudmund turns back in front of him, and his wife places her hand on his hand.
