The story begins with Melina working at a restaurant in Portland, still haunted by the nightmares of the past six months. She had moved there to escape her troubled past in LA, but little did she know that her past would catch up to her. When her friend Jane asks her to cover a shift at the bar and lock up, Melina agrees, unaware of the danger that awaits her.
As she is about to leave the restaurant, Thomas and his men appear. His once-loving eyes now burn with rage as he demands to know where his money is. Melina tries to explain that James took everything, but Thomas is not convinced. He orders his men to take her, and she is drugged and kidnapped, waking up in a dark, windowless room underground.
