People ran towards the ruined car and tried to save whomsoever is inside. Meanwhile, Murphy doesn't stop; he is able to regain control of the car to escape the scene, which he does in shock.

Man: (opens the car) Oh god! A child is in the car.

Thick white exhaust started to come out of the car due to a coolant leak.

Man 2: Pull them out (He says as people pull Hope and her son from the car).

Hope and Randy seem unconscious: they are not responding. They are being rushed to Blue heaven hospital.

AT THE HOSPITAL

Doctor: Do you know these people? (He asked as Hope and Randy are taken into the emergency room on stretchers).

Man 2: No, they were being knocked down by a...

Man 1: (Interrupts Man 2) I have the patient's phone.

Doctor: Okay, so what about the person who knocked them down?

Woman 1: He got away.

Nurse 1: Take her this way. Take him that way (She pointed).

Nurse 2: Okay.

Both of them were quickly placed on a recovery process.

Murphy, on the other hand, is smart enough to cover his tracks. He rushes into a chemical store and demands a bottle of Ammonia which he rubs inside out his car to obliterate any trace of his fingerprint.

He stops by a less busy area and pulls out his plate number. He takes valuable items from the car and leaves the car behind. The hood, bumper, and light blinker of the car is already damaged
As Murphy walks away, an old man sitting outside a small ranch across the scene calls out but Murphy does not listen.

Old Man: Hey! Hey! you can't keep this car here! Who are you?

Murphy walks faster and faster as the man gets closer. Suddenly, Murphy runs away, and because the man is old, he doesn't catch up with him.

Mr. Dickson Wallace had already sat on his dining chair, ready to have dinner when his phone rang.

IN MURPHY'S HOUSE

Murphy: Oh god! No! No! (He cries out having realized what he has done and what would happen to him if the police find out he is responsible for the accident). Ah!!!!! (He screams aloud).

Meanwhile, Natasha calls him on the phone at the time but he ignores the call. He quickly rushes into the bathroom, washes off the blood from the injury he sustained on his legs; he pulls off his clothes and resorts to the shower.

IN THE HOSPITAL

Policeman 1: We are doing all we can to find out who did this.

Dickson Wallace: (Traumatized) Uh uh...... (He can't say anything meaningful).

He just sits down on a chair thinking about how devastating the situation is, knowing that if he loses Hope and Randy, then he has lost everyone he ever loved.
