The Latin phrase "Quo Ego Vado Vos" (Where I am going, but you?) implies a set of characters in constant motion. This applies especially to the peripatetic train ride of Em and Cal as they move towards the holding tank of Nick on the Austrian-Chech border near Schonberg.

Gramps has successfully removed Flynn to an old family farmhouse, and he rescues Flynn from a wolf. Gramps also prepares his rifle in the event of an assault, and he makes a phone call to Dr. Jack. Is this wise, given Jack's unstable background with drugs and his bereavement after the death of his Alice?

Meanwhile, Crown questions Gunnarsen's ex-lover, the law professor Michelle Saban, Crown is interested in learning how Gunnarsen had paid off substantial debt. Of course, Michelle lets her ex-lover know about the interview, and Gunnarsen retaliates by reminding Crown about his poor judgment in carrying on with the investigative reporter Erica Lyle.

On the frenetic train ride, Em confesses to Cal that she once wanted to be a ballerina. There follows a pas-de-deux on the train when Em and Cal have to fend off attacks from a waiter and a couple of thugs, whom they succeed in escorting off the moving train.

When recovering, Em and Cal are intimate in their compartment after Cal has opened up about how he inadvertently shot a kid while on tour in the Middle East, trying to support a supply team. In order to save the life of his buddy Hold, Cal was forced by Armstrong, his superior, to kill the kid. Cal reflects on how Armstrong was a "monster." He and Em conclude that "everyone has a monster inside them."

When they finally arrive in Schonberg, just south of Innsbruck, Em and Cal find the rooms of the facility to be empty. Along with other victims, Nick is being transported in a large moving van. Clearly, the building was being used as a diabolical holding tank for the victims who will be losing organs in the dastardly Meridan enterprise of trafficking in body parts.

"There was a new guy. He'd been with us a while..."

Lazy writing. Unmotivated sex scene (Aw hon, you're a murderer? Let me come straddle you).

Ready to take a hike? (Start out sprinting)

(Throws affair in his face) (He storms out) (She looks frustrated that didn't go like she expected)
