THIRTY-EIGHT
One of Shaw's team members ejects a wire causing it to connect to the rocks on either side of the road. The front car drives into the wire causing it to stop and the trailer to raise before another member drives a tank out of the trailer leaving Tej stunned. "Uh, guys, we gotta come up with another plan," Tej quickly says over the walkie as he sees the tank, "They got a tank." Tej's eyes landed on Reyna's car, his worry for her only expanding as he knew she wouldn't back down from this, especially when innocents are endangered.
"I'm sorry, did somebody just say 'a tank'?" Rome asks over the walkie. Owen turns the tank gun towards the team before firing at them, Reyna and Brian quickly swerve around the damaged cars as Reyna clenched her jaw trying not to think of the innocents in danger so she could focus on the task at hand. "Who's got a plan B?" Rome asks over the walkie. "Plan B? We need a plan C, D, E. We need more alphabets!" Tej panics through the walkie making Reyna chuckle as she looked over at Brian.
"Hey, we do what we do best," Brian tells them, "We improvise, all right?" Reyna quickly swerves into the lane that the tank is in with Dom, Brian and Rome right behind her. While, inside the tank, Owen orders one of his men to take the tank on to the other side for some fun leaving Letty and Benny shocked and pissed. Rome is able to follow behind the tank as Jah follows Owen's orders ignoring Letty as she questioned Owen's actions who ignored the woman. "Be careful, guys!" Reyna says over the walkie, not wanting to lose anyone, "Take their attention away from the people!"
Rome speeds up in front of the front gaining Jah's attention, "We got one right in front of us." Owen smirks as he lowers the tank gun, "Boom!" Rome looks up and notices the tank gun, "Oh, shit!" Rome hits his brakes as Owen fires causing it to hit the front of him but the tank runs into the back of Rome's car. "Roman, you hang in there," Brian says over the walkie as he watches Rome, "Hang in there, man." Reyna lets out a breath as she watches Rome carefully trying to come up with a plan to help him.
Rome was panicking, "Somebody better do something! I got a tank on my ass!" He tries to restart his car in hopes to get out of the way of the tank. "There's got to be a break up ahead," Dom says through the walkie before he, Brian and Reyna speed up. Owen fires the gun at the bridge in front of them, the tank starts to break down the back of Rome's car before he sees a cable in the back. Reyna and Dom speed up to make it under the falling bridge as Rome climbs out of his car with the cable before attaching it to the tank gun.
Brian uses the fallen bridge as a ramp to jump to the other side, he then hits his brakes until he is beside the tank. Rome quickly jumps onto Brian's car before the tank crushes his car, Brian quickly gets behind the tank as Rome climbs safely inside. Reyna speeds up and takes the spot Brian was previously in as she watched the hatch open to reveal Benny, they made eye contact and he let out a breath before jumping onto her car and climbing in. "What happened to undercover?" Reyna asks him as she moves from Brian to get ahead of her. "Family is more important," Benny told her as he grabbed the walkie.
"Hey O'Connor, that mustang would make a nice anchor," Benny says over the walkie as Dom caught up to Reyna. "Yeah, I'm on it," Brian replies before he starts pushing the crushed car on the opposite side from the tank. Brian is able to knock the car over the edge as the cable wraps around a column. "What is she doing?" Rome asks Brian as they all notice Letty on top of the tank. Dominic quickly speeds up as Owen turns the tank gun towards him, "Letty!" Dom yelled out causing her to look over at him.
The crushed car catches causing the cable to tighten which causes the tank to start to flip. Dom quickly opens his door as he drives towards the rails. Letty is flung from the tank before Dom crashes into the rails and is flung from his car. Dom catches Letty in the air pulling her tight to his chest before landing on the hood of a car. Reyna pulls up next to them and rushes over to them to make sure they were okay, thankfully neither of them were badly hurt. She turned to her brother and wrapped her arms around his torso, "Welcome back, brother." He kissed the top of her head as he looked around at the team.

"I can't believe they stole a seventy-ton tank for a three-ounce computer chip," The Commander says as he, Hobbs and Riley look at the chip. "That three-ounce computer chip is more deadly than one thousand of those tanks," Hobbs tells him. "What about them?" The Commander asks as he looks over at Letty and Benny. "Not them," Reyna states protectively as she, Dom and Brian make their way over to them. "They were working with Shaw," The Commander argues back. "Was, but they've always been one of us," Dom tells him as Benny spoke with Letty.
"Let's give them a minute," Hobbs says to the Commander as he glances at Reyna who nods gratefully. Reyna turned to look at Benny who smiled up at her before focusing on keeping Letty relaxed. The Commander quickly walks away before Hobbs and Riley follow behind him. "Let's go process Shaw and his crew. I've never looked more forward to filling out paperwork in my life," Hobbs says as they walk into Owen's cell, who looked up at Hobbs with a playful smirk.
"Hey Roshani, Toretto," Hobbs yells as he escorts Owen and his crew into the room, "You need to hear this." Reyna and Dom stepped forward glaring at Owen with the team standing behind them. "You guys really think you've won," Owen says as he looks around the team, his eyes narrowing on Benny who held his head high. "The code you live by, it's the very reason why you weren't even in the game," Owen says before focusing his sole attention on Dom, "I told you exactly what I was gonna do if you didn't walk away, Toretto."
He smirked, "But you didn't listen. I told you I can reach out and break you whenever I want. And I have. Maybe you should call Mia." Brian glances at Dom and Reyna before grabbing his cellphone. "Mia?" Brian asks once the phone is answered. "Brian!" Mia yells as the phone is raised towards her. Before Brian could step forward, Reyna rushed towards Owen before punching him in the face with a satisfying crack causing him to stumble with a groan.
The Commander grabs Owen as Rome pulled Reyna back into Tej's arms. Owen spits out blood before he chuckles, "Fiesty." Reyna glared at him fighting every urge to rush him and kill him. "So, this is how it's gonna go down," Owen says as he looks from Dom to Reyna, "You're gonna cut me loose from these cuffs, you're gonna hand me the chip, I'm gonna walk out of here and you're not gonna follow." The Commander looks between them before glaring at Owen, "You must be joking."
"Look at her face," Owen says as he steps in front of Reyna, "Ask her if I'm joking." The Commander shook his head, "One hostage does not outweigh the threat to millions. I'm sorry, but this changes nothing." Hobbs quickly pulls his gun out of his holster before pointing it at The Commander's head. The soldiers around them quickly raise their guns as Dom signals for the team to not pull theirs. "It changes everything," Hobbs tells the Commander, "You tell your men to stand down." The Commander nods, "Stand down."
Hobbs turns to Reyna, "Rey. I need you to know, the moment we let him walk out that door with that chip, words like 'amnesty' and 'pardon' walk out with him." Reyna turned her gaze from Hobbs to Owen with a deadly glare, "Those words went out the day we were born." Hobbs motions for Riley to uncuff Shaw's team. Owen starts walking away before he turns back to them, "Coming, babe?" A couple of them looked at Letty but Reyna's eyes landed on Riley who smirked, "Of course. I wouldn't miss it for the world."
Hobbs looked from Reyna to Riley as the two women glared at each other. "Like I said," Owen says as Riley grabs his hand, "You were never in the game. If I see you on the horizon, I'll make the call and the girl is dead." Owen and his team walk away as Reyna took a deep breath. She turned to look at Hobbs who was quiet as he watched Riley walk away before turning to Reyna, "I'll be following your orders from now on." Reyna smiled lightly at his words before turning to the team, "Come on, we got a job to finish. Our way."
