  • misterwolf When Aaliyah looks at Orson's gun, she breaks down into tears after thinking about him. Bailey comforts her, before being called by Quinn for their location. The next morning, the girls allow Quinn to join them on their mission, before driving away. However, Sokolov appears and kidnaps them, and finally admits to his killing of Scott and orchestrating Jessica's hospitalization. Before he can kill Bailey to hurt Aaliyah more, the latter breaks free and disarms him before reclaiming her gun and engaging him a fierce gunfight. Although Sokolov wins, Quinn takes a fatal shot from him and narrowly saves Aaliyah and Bailey's lives while Sokolov escapes.

  • misterwolf Aaliyah buries Quinn and gives Bailey his gun, knowing that he will not need it anymore. Arriving in Russia, Aaliyah and Bailey rent a hotel room; Aaliyah tells Bailey it is her birthday, as she is now 18 years old. As a gift, Bailey gives her a promise ring. The next day, Aaliyah and Bailey track Sokolov to an abandoned bunker, and they are confronted by him and a still alive Tucker, his death having been staged by him and Sokolov.

  • misterwolf However, Bailey disarms Tucker and shoots him dead, while Aaliyah and Sokolov engage in a one-on-one fistfight. Aaliyah initially loses, but Bailey stabs Sokolov, allowing Aaliyah to gain the upper hand, only for Bailey to realize that the bunker has been rigged to burn down and that the door has been locked. Aaliyah fatally shoots Sokolov but decides to leave him so he can instead be burnt alive, saying "Killing you won't bring my family back. You can --cking suffer." She grabs an axe and breaks the door lock, enabling her and Bailey to escape just moments before the bunker explodes, killing Sokolov.

  • misterwolf In the aftermath, the girls have returned to America, in Pennsylvania. They visit Orson's grave, with Aaliyah "I love you dad.", and then reunite with Jessica; Aaliyah reveals her promise ring to her mother, and Bailey is given Jessica's blessing to marry her daughter when they decide that they are ready. Before the end credits roll, Aaliyah and Bailey play a piano that had belonged to Scott before his death, and coincidentally play the song he did when Aaliyah had come home to prepare for her first date with Bailey.
