Maddog residence, San Francisco. Outlaw and Saphire are seated on the living room couch talking. Reginald comes in.

"Excuse me sir, ma'am. Someone here to see you."

"Show em in."

The person who comes in makes Outlaw's jaw drop.

"Jonathan!"

"Hey Squirt. How ya doin?"

The two hug each other.

"Oh, it is so good to see you big bro!"

"Ahem."

"Oh. Saphire I'd like you to meet John Willis, my brother. John, this is Saphire, my girlfriend."

"You? With a girlfriend? I never thought I'd see the day!"

John and Saphire shake hands.

"I gotta introduce you the others."

After introductions

"So what brings you here?" says Silver

"I'm in trouble and I need protection." says John "This also concerns the Road Rovers."

"I'll contact them."

Later, the Rovers are on the screen.

"I used to be an aid to Drake Pennington, the oil tycoon."

" And most likely to become the next President." says Hunter

"While sorting his files one day I came across a tape incriminating him. It was a bribe from General Parvo. I took and left. Now Mr. Pennington's has hired someone to kill me."

"Who?" says Outlaw

"Harjo Dula."

"Huran Dula's brother." says Hunter

"Great." says Wesley

"Where is the tape?" says Hunter

"I hid it in a Mission."

"Get it and then come here, as fast as you can."

"You got it." says Outlaw

"Hold on, a mission?" says Beowulf

"Only place I could think of." says John

Somewhere on a highway, the Maddogs and John drive toward the Mission. They stop when they come to a railroad being blocked off by a stalled train. From all around gunmen come out and cover them.

"Try anything and your dead!"

Harjo Dula steps up.

"Where's the tape Mr. Willis."

"I'll never tell you."

"Take them."

Later, the Maddogs are tied up in one of the boxcars. Harjo holds John at gunpoint on the caboose and Outlaw is tied to a stake in the track.

"Tell me where the tape is or your friend here will be stretched to the limit."

"No."

"Have it your way. Start the train."

Slowly at first, the train moves forward and the rope begins to stretch. Outlaw groans as the rope pulls him.

"This is not going to be pretty." says Harjo

One of Harjo's goons looks down at Outlaw with a smug smile.

"Feeling the pressure? That is one tight rope."

The man pulls the rope with a finger to wobble it.

"Simkins no!" shouts Harjo

The rope snaps suddenly and Outlaw is free. He gets up and untangles himself and runs after the train. He gets on and decks Harjo. Harjo fires his gun pointblank at Outlaw. Outlaw kicks him and he falls off as the train goes on.

"You all right?" says John "Let me see. Wait. There's no wound."

"One of my specialties. Special healing ability"

"No way! How'd that happen?"

"When I assumed this form. Come on, let's untie the others."

Later that night, they camp out. Outlaw and John talk.

"So, do I hear wedding bells in your future?" says John

"You mean Saphire? Maybe. Why?"

"You really have a thing for her don't you? I remember when you wouldn't go near another girl."

"That was a long time ago."

"Yeah, I'll bet."

"So how are mom and dad?"

"Worried about you. They'd really like to see you again some day."

"Maybe when things quiet down. When you see them give them my love."

"Sure."

At another encampment, Harjo and several of his men are preparing to eat.

"Tonight gentlemen I've prepared a chicken dish you may find very tasteful." says Harjo "But first, a lesson. Mr Simkins can you tell me what's in this bottle?"

"I....don't smell anything."

"Very good. It's an experimental poison developed by GenPar Inc. It's ordorless, tasteless and undetectable."

"Pass the salt?" says Simkins

"Now, Mr. Simkins does not know it but his chicken absolutly reeks with it.

"Sir?"

"Pass the salt, please."

Simkins falls facedown into his plate.

"Chicken a la poison gentlemen. A good deterrent from doing something very very stupid."

Next day at the Mission, John and the Mother Superior talk.

"Thank you for hiding it for me Mother Anne. I can't thank you enough."

"No trouble at all my son."

"So why'd you hide it here?" says Outlaw

"It seemed like a reasonable place."

"Willis!" Harjo shouts from outside "I know your here!"

"How'd they find us?" says Wesley

"I don't know but they better not try anything in the Good Lord's House!" says Beowulf

"You three go on and try to round up his men. John, Saphire, lets go."

As the three are walking Harjo comes out of nowhere.

"The tape, Now."

"This is a Mission Dula!" says John "You wouldn't try anything here would you?"

"Don't tempt me. Besides I'm not much on religion. Now, the tape."

John sighs in resignation

"This way."

As they enter a modest looking bedroom Mother Anne comes out from behind the door and whacks Dula on the head with a frying pan.

"Mother!"

"Here's the tape. God be with you."

"Thanks." says Outlaw "I'll have the authorites pick him up."

The they leave, Anne looks at what she's done, then looks skyward.

"Forgive me Father, but that felt good."

RRMC. The Maddogs, Rovers, John and the Master are listening to the tape.

"Just take the money Mr. Pennington. And remember who put you in the oval office."

"Don't worry General I won't."

"Well done Mr. Willis." says Master "I'll send this to the proper people. You don't have to worry anymore about this."

"And I'm out of a job."

"Let's see if we can get you another." says Outlaw "Meanwhile, how about we catch up on family business.

"I'd like that."

The End
