Once A Toretto, Always A Toretto

Tej starts walking over to his car from an ATM.

"Look at you, rolling in a Ferrari, pockets full of cash!" A man tells Tej in Spanish.

"Yeah, man. You used to be all Robin Hood, sharing all the money you got," Another man agrees in Spanish.

"You know what I'm telling you. Money changed you," The first man says in Spanish. Tej knew he had changed but it wasn't from the money, it was from a special woman leaving him.

"You're right. Money has changed me," Tej tells him in Spanish, giving the man what he wants. "I realized that money doesn't grow on trees. It rains from the sky!" Tej presses a remote causing the ATM to shoot out all of the money that is in it. Tej watches as everyone starts grabbing the money with a smile on his face before his cellphone rings.

"Hello?" Tej asks.

"It's Dom. I know I said we would be done after Rio but I need your help. It involves my sister, Catalina," Dom explains knowing that Tej had a soft for her.

"I'll be there," Tej tells him, knowing that he would do anything for Catalina.

Dom also called Rome, Gisele, and Han, who all agreed to come. Dom then decided that Brian and Mia deserved to know so he makes his way to their house.

"What do you think of this?" Brian asks as he shakes a rattle toy in front of Jack.

"He likes it," Mia says with a smile.

"Or this?" Brian asks as he holds a toy skyline car in front of Jack, who reaches for it. "Yes." Brian looks at Mia with a victorious smile causing her to smile. "That's my boy. All right, lets see how this thing flies." Brian throws a paper airplane before Dom pulls up in front of where the paper plane lands. "It's Uncle Dom. What do you know? Are you waving?"

"Hey Jack," Dom says with a smile as he gets out of the car.

"What's up, Uncle Dom? What's up, Uncle Dom?" Brian says for Jack as he waves Jack's hand around.

"Are you already pushing imports on him?" Dom asks as he sees the toy skyline.

"You say, 'Dad's not pushing anything.' He chose that car," Brian says as he looks at Dom, who has kneeled in front of them.

"We know he's an O'Conner, but I brought you something Jack," Dom says with a smirk as he holds out a toy Dodge Charger to him. Jack starts reaching for the car. "Yeah! He's also a Toretto."

"I don't know," Brian says as he takes the car from Dom.

"Luckily he has a couple more years to decide, right?" Mia says with a smile as she looks at Jack.

"I think he decided, Mia," Dom says as Jack plays with the car.

"I think it's time for his nap," Mia says as she takes Jack from Brian before going inside. Brian grabs some beers for him and Dom before they sit in some lawn chairs.

"It's weird, huh?" Brian asks as Dom takes a drink of his beer.

"What's weird?" Dom asks him back.

"We got everything. You know, down to the beer and the barbecue. But it's just..." Brian says with a chuckle and a shake of his head. "I don't know, it just doesn't feel like home. Maybe it's because, uh, you don't realize how much you appreciate something until someone takes it away. I don't know. The place has probably changed so much, you wouldn't even recognize it anymore."

"Yeah. Everything's changed," Dom says in agreement.

"So what's up with you? What's going on?" Brian questions him. Dom sighs before handing him the envelope that Hobbs had given him.

"Taken a week ago," Dom says as Brian opens the envelope.

"Diplomatic Security Service. Hobbs," Brian says before pulling out the picture and looking at it. "You know, I used to do this shit all the time as a cop. This is exactly what cops do. He's messing with your head. And using Lina to do it. Letty's dead, Dom."

"I need to know for sure," Dom tells him.

"Then I'm going with you," Brian states causing Dom to shake his head.

"You said you were going to leave this life behind," Dom tells him sternly.

"We both said that we were leaving the life behind," Brian argues with him.

"He's right," Mia says as she walks over, having been listening in to their conversation. "We're family. If we got a problem, we deal with it together. And I'll feel safer knowing you're all out there, watching each other's backs. You're stronger together. You always were. Now go get Letty and my sister. Bring them home."
