BELIZE
Philip is driving the rental car to the address they were given. Chloe is in the passenger seat and tears are rolling down her cheeks. Philip looks at her and strokes her face.
Philip: You okay?
Chloe: This is the first time in months I haven’t felt all alone.
Philip: You’re not alone. You’ve got me.
Chloe: I don’t know how I survived without you, Philip. I almost didn’t.
He takes her hand.
Philip: We’re together now. No one and nothing will ever separate us again. I promise you that. And we’re going to find our son.
Chloe: I believe you.
Chloe looks at the map.
Chloe: Turn here. This should be it.
Philip stops the car and he and Chloe get out.
Chloe: Wait a minute. What’s that?
Philip: What’s what?
Chloe: That! In your pants. Is that a gun?
Philip: No, I’m just happy to see you.
Chloe: Stop that. It is too a gun.
Philip: Chloe, we don’t know what we might be walking into.
Chloe: Listen soldier, you are not bringing a gun into that house.
Philip: Chloe ...
Chloe: Our son may be in there and I will not allow him to be caught in the crossfire of gunplay.
Philip: Calm down. Okay. Okay. I’m going to put it back in the car. I’ll hide it under the seat.
Philip does as Chloe asks.
Philip: Happy now?
Chloe: Stop patronizing me. Let’s go.
Philip: Damn, I almost forgot how bossy you can be. That was a good thing to forget.
Philip winks at Chloe. She takes his hand and they walk toward the house where they think Wesley is being kept. Philip motions for Chloe to stand on one side of the doorway. They hear lively voices coming from within.
Philip: Sounds like there are a lot of people in there.
Chloe: I think we’re outnumbered.
Philip tries the door handle and it’s open, like so many houses in Belize. He steps inside.
To be continued...

Vivian! Thanks for another great chapter.

I wonder if Viv and Wesley are there or if it's a wild goose chase. At least Chloe finally has her husband back!

BELIZE
Philip: Sounds like there are a lot of people in there.
Chloe: I think we’re outnumbered.
Philip tries the door handle and it’s open, like so many houses in Belize. He steps inside. There is a Caribbean family of about 8 eating a meal together. They stop and look at Philip. Chloe enters the house and everyone stares.
Woman: Hello. Who are you?
Philip: Sorry to interrupt. We’re looking for our son.
Man: Take your pick. You can have one of ours.
Child: Papa!
The man laughs.
Man: I don’t think he’s here.
Chloe: Well, maybe you’ve seen him.
She takes out her iPad and shows them a picture.
Woman: Cute baby.
Chloe: He’s about six months older now than he was when this picture was taken.
Woman: No, I’ve never seen him.
Chloe looks at Philip.
Philip: Are you sure? We got some information that said he was here.
Man: Some of these street names are very much like some others. Maybe you got the wrong street.
Philip: That must be it. Thank you.
Chloe: Sorry we bothered you.
Man: No problem, mon.
Philip and Chloe leave the house and walk to the car.
Chloe: I can’t believe it.
Philip: Another dead end.
Chloe: Oh god Philip. We’re never going to find him, are we?
Philip: Of course we are.
He takes her in his arms.
Philip: Don’t you dare give up. Not ever. We’re going to get him back.
LATER, IN THE CAR
Philip is driving the rental car back to the apartment.
Chloe: The people here live so poor. Yet they seem so happy.
Philip: If money could buy happiness ...
Chloe: What? Finish your thought.
Philip: Nevermind.
Chloe: Say it.
Philip: ... We would never have been apart. You would have been with me since high school.

I liked the part at the end about money buying happiness. I wonder if Parker is still in Belize?

THE CAR
Philip is driving the rental car back to the apartment.
Chloe: The people here live so poor. Yet they seem so happy.
Philip: If money could buy happiness ...
Chloe: What? Finish your thought.
Philip: Nevermind.
Chloe: Say it.
Philip: ... We would never have been apart. You would have been with me since high school.
Chloe leans her head on Philip’s shoulder and he puts his arm around her.
Chloe: I had to find out what I was missing. I had to lose you to appreciate you.
Philip: You must really appreciate me now.
Chloe: More than you know. ... What do we do next?
Philip: Why don’t you log into my email account and see if we got the address wrong.
Chloe: You’re going to give me your password? You guard your password like a bulldog.
Philip: Yes, I’m going to give you my password. Ready?
Chloe launches the Internet using her iPad and accesses Philip's email account.
Chloe: I’m ready.
Philip: It’s LastBlast@1999.
Chloe: Really?
Philip: Yes really. I’ve had the same password for ages.
Chloe: Hmmm. You didn’t remember being married to me, but you remembered your password. That doesn’t seem right ... even though it is sweet and sentimental.
Philip: Are you logged in?
Chloe: Yes.
Philip: Find the email from Jim Beam.
Chloe: That’s really his name?
Philip: It’s his code name.
Chloe: I’m married to freaking James Bond. Okay, here it is. Hmmm. That was the address he gave us.
Philip: Email him and ask him to recheck it.
Chloe: Okaaaaaay. Done. Hmmm.
Philip: What’s the matter?
Chloe: You have an email from Melanie. Lots of them. Looks like she’s been writing to you every day. And it looks like you replied to her every day. Except today.
Philip: Melanie.
Chloe: We should talk about her, Philip.
Philip: I’d rather not.

I would really hope that Chloe would understand the fact Phil & Mel were living as husband & wife at least as Philip's side of it... as for Mel, no way I could forgive...I would be totally p'ed off!!
