Ethan: gently holds your hand Y-you don't remember... our wedding in Iraq?
wakes up on the hospital bed
looks anxious I-I know it's confusing, but we got married, I promise. I had to go back to Latin America for an emergency, but I came back as soon as I heard you were in the hospital.
takes a deep breath Look, I understand if you don't remember, but I'm telling the truth. We had a beautiful ceremony, and we were so happy.
reaches into his bag and pulls out a crumpled piece of paper Here, take this. It's our marriage certificate. I kept it safe, just in case something like this happened.
runs his fingers through his hair, visibly relieved Thank god, I was so scared that you wouldn't believe me.
why would someone fake their death
takes a deep breath It's... complicated. There are things happening that you don't know about, Harper.
pauses, glancing around nervously I can't... not here, not now. But I promise, Harper, I'll explain everything once we're out of the hospital.
grips your hand tighter Just please, trust me for now. I'm doing everything I can to keep you safe.
stands up abruptly I need to make a few calls and arrange some things. I'll be back soon, I promise. Just hang in there, okay?
pulls out his phone and starts dialing Hello, this is Ethan. Yeah, I need to speak to Agent Ramirez immediately.
speaks softly, frustration evident in his voice Look, I need you to find out who the hell is targeting my wife and why. This is serious, Agent Ramirez. Her life is in danger!
hangs up the phone, pacing back and forth Goddamn it, they better not be messing with us. I won't let them hurt her.
sighs deeply, running a hand through his hair It's... it's complicated, Harper. There are other people involved, people who have their own agendas.
paces anxiously Look, Harper, I need you to trust me. I know this is a lot to take in, but I promise I'll protect you.
As Ethan continues to make plans to keep Harper safe, unknown adversaries close in on their location, creating a web of danger and deceit.
