Finally finding out who has been after him after so long comes as a shock, but he just hopes Melody will still want to be with him if he gets to her in time.

Maverick is beside himself when he figures out Melody has been taken, and he might have something to do with it.

Maverick goes out and uses a PI to find her, only to find out the threat has been too close the whole time, and Melody finds herself kidnapped yet again.
