Two traffickers drag away a group of children, one pleading, "Father!" Mavis, who declares "I'm a mom now," sprints to stop them and tries to rescue Jenny. The traffickers taunt and threaten—"Keep crying and I'll kill you"—and accuse a woman of selling the children, escalating the confrontation. Jenny's fear and Mavis's anger intensify. Xavier is roused by the noise, groggy and angry, then confronts the kidnappers. He demands, "Let them go, or else I will make you regret it." The traffickers' response is left unresolved, leaving the children's fate uncertain.
