Victoria Long, David Smith, Chelsea Davis, George Patrikis, and all other people they caught were transferred to the base of the Army of Chaos. They will be held as prisoners until Sarah finds the ti to deal with them.
Sarah promised to Gabriel that nothing will happen to Victoria without his knowledge. He hoped that Victoria will snap to her senses and realize her mistake. In that case, Gabriel will get on his knees and beg Sarah to forgive Victoria. Of course, this should not be a problem when they find Aiden, and if Aiden is not found, Gabriel is aware that no amount of begging will save Victoria.
"You are just leaving here?" Victoria hissed at Gabriel while two n in black suits dragged her toward a black van that was parked in front of the Cliffside Villa.
Gabriel looked at Victoria helplessly and his heart cracked. Her fierce attitude told him that she is not close to seeing what a ss she caused. "What do you want to do, Vicky? Even if I can bail you out, I wouldn't."
"What?" Victoria barked at Gabriel.
"Vicky... Use this ti to think if your ten years by my side were worth it. Did you ever love ? Or were you with for benefits from the beginning? Do you know that your greed cost lives? People died, Vicky. You can't fix that!"
"That is all your fault! If you didn't give your position to Steve, I wouldn't do this!"
Gabriel could not believe that Victoria is blaming him for this. "My only fault is that I didn't see how you are with only for benefits."
"Where are you going?!" Victoria scread after Gabriel who was walking away back inside the villa. "Stop! You can't leave ! I'm your wife! … Let go of ! Where are you taking ? What…?" Her screams stopped when they knocked her out.
When Victoria regained her consciousness about one hour later, she found herself in a dark cell with no one else around, and no one to answer her questions.

Sarah, JoAnna, Sophia, Jeff, and Felix are in a jet with their kids, heading toward Europe. Nannies are also onboard, and so are Michael, Oni, Ron, Zula, Zack, and Masika who are sleeping in the back of the plane. Everyone is exhausted.
"We should let her sleep…" Sophia reminded JoAnna who was looking at Sarah. "She didn't get a shut-eye for more than a day."
Sophia rembered that Sarah always slept easily in a plane, and seeing her like this curled up in a half-reclined seat, Sophia rembered a skinny pre-teen. Sarah didn't change much, yet she is a completely different person.
"We should all sleep. We have three more hours until landing, let's use it." Jeff said while carrying sleeping Alice to the back of the plane where the bedroom is. Valentin is sleeping in a separate cot, so that the other kids don't squish him. Jayden, Lia, and Adam are sprawled on the bed with their limbs over each other. Jeff found a spot to put Alice and observed them for a mont before walking into a reclining chair next to JoAnna.
Jeff left the White corp. in the hands of Oscar who will have Leah and Pam to help him. Charlie and Steve promised that all their resources can be used if needed and that they will keep an eye on a few kids who stayed behind at the Cliffside Villa.
Emma, Tiffany, and Bridgette assured them that the Golden Ocean Resort, LA dical Center, and Blanc will work as expected and that they should only focus on their mission: getting Aiden back.

"Do you have sothing for ?" Sarah asked Mishi, Lucija, Petar, Emir, and Tereza when they t in the living room.
"Don't you want to have lunch first?" Mishi responded to Sarah with a question.
"I'm not hungry. What do you have?"
Based on their expressions, Sarah understood that they found sothing and that it's not pleasant.
They moved to the study room with JoAnna and Sophia.
"All the code you gave us is clean and we traced the activity from the server that accepts SOS signals." Mishi said and showed on the screen a map of Europe. "This is from where the signal originated…"
Sarah frowned. "Croatia?"
"It seems that Nick is behind it." Lucija said in a small voice.
Everyone knew that Sarah has a soft spot for Nick. He left them and Sarah always hoped that he will change his mind and return to their group.
Over the years, they tracked his hacking activities and they all believed that Nick is practicing in order to be worthy of a rematch with Aiden.
Mishi cleared his throat to get Sarah's attention. "We checked a number of caras in the area and confird that at the ti when the hack happened, Marija was with Nick. We are keeping an eye on their current locations. Nick is in Split, while Marija is in Belgrade."
Sarah gritted her teeth while the information that Marija and Nick were part of the plot sank in. Sarah knew that Marija is not a good person, but Nick… he is naïve and easily deceived.
"Thanks, everyone. I will take it from here." Sarah said as she stood up.
JoAnna and Sophia followed after Sarah.
"Who is Nick?" JoAnna asked. They t Marija at Sarah's and Aiden's wedding, but they never t Nick.
"He used to be a part of this group. When I introduced Aiden, he was unable to accept it and he left." Sarah explained.
"What's next?" Sophia asked.
"I want you to get in touch with Angelo. Ask him to bring Nick and Marija here. He has n in those areas. I will continue working on Eve…"
Sarah wanted to work on Eve in the plane, but she ended up sleeping off.
She decided to enable GPS tracking and automatic wireless charging first, because those two will be necessary for her to find Aiden. She tried nurous tis to locate him based on the GPS tracking in his ring but was unable to get a signal. That can an only one of the two: either the ring needs charging or the signal is being blocked.
Sarah is aware that wireless charging has limitations. Felix managed to get the wireless charging work with most of the existing electrical infrastructure, as long as it's newer. She hopes that they don't end up taking Aiden to an isolated place with old electricals, or without electricity. If they take him to a place similar to the one where Hong used to live, the ring will not charge, and she can forget about using it to locate Aiden. However, she will not give up hope that this will work because it's the only thing preventing her from plunging into insanity.
With the code Mishi and the gang cleaned up, restoring so basic defensive capabilities for Eve will not be difficult. Sarah only needs to put it together. And she needs to keep busy in order to prevent herself from falling apart.
