As he hung up the phone, the officers eventually found Lenny, but they stopped momentarily. They moved closer to the ex-Blue Ranger, and the lead officer took him and just as they were going to handcuff him, Jaguar, who was badly battered from the beating, came in front of the officers. "Wait, before you arrest him, please let me speak to him," he said.
"But, Mr. Baptiste, he might attack you. We have to take him to the station," the officer said.
"I know, but please. Just give me time," Jaguar said as he tried to reach for Lenny, "Len-", but his hand was slapped away.
"Don't fucking touch me, Jaguar. Just leave me alone," Lenny said as he looked at the officers and walked up.
"Go ahead. Arrest me, I... don't care anymore," the ex-Ranger said, his voice sounding hollow. Almost all of his emotion was gone, just not caring about what's going to happen to him now.

"I know. He and I had a nice little chat, minus the nice." Methos responded. "As promised, I come with news. First, I found the location of Zephyr's London factory. Unfortunately, that's the good news."
"Well, lay it on us. Whatever it is, it can't make this day any worse." Paul sat down, waiting to hear what else Methos had to say.
"Be thankful you didn't make a wager. By a stroke of horrible luck for the lot of ya, SPD is in town, specifically the Yellow Ranger, Lenny's former friend. There was a fist fight in a local pub and now local authorities are also looking for Lenny. Given his penchant for trouble, it wouldn't surprise me that they found him by now."
"Fuck!" Paul kicked the closest chair. "I knew his shit was gonna get us in trouble." Paul ran his hands through his hair. "Never mind that for now. Where is the factory?"
"Buckingham Palace...." Methos finished.

Kestra just sighed and shook her head. "Great...the fucking most impenetrable place in all of London. That's gonna be fun."

The police handcuffed Lenny and hauled him away while Jaguar watched, wanting to do something but stated silent. As Lenny was placed in the patrol car and hauled to the station, he thought about how Omar had betrayed him and there was no possible way in getting back to the team, for they had already moved on without him.

Corrie shook her head at the thought of Lenny but shrugged to herself knowing he is the reason he is in any mess. Then the location was spoken. "Wait, how the hell do you expect us to pull that off? I second Kestra on this one." She said confused.

On the way to the station the patrol car made a stop near the Buckingham Palace which Lenny looked at the beautiful palace until he began to have a feeling something wasn't right. As the patrol car pulled away, turning to the station and making a another stop, Lenny reached for his back pocket and took out a small switchblade and began to pick at the cuffs for a brief minute until they unlocked, freeing himself from the captivity.
He slowly opened the door of the patrol and tries to get out, but one of the officers spotted him. "Hey, you! Stop!" he shouted out as he and his partner came out of the car to stop him. But as he reached for him, the former dealer, punched the first officer and flipped the other.
"Sorry, but I ain’t gonna go down. Not when I want to get this over with and be out of everyone's hair when I am done," he said before leaving, as the two officers fell unconscious. Running his way to the Buckingham Palace, he stopped for a moment.
"Okay, I know the Palace is beautiful and all but something tells me that it ain't all glamor and shit, but what could it be?" he asked himself.

"Well, if you're Zephyr, it's a perfect hiding spot. Buckingham Palace already has it's own protection, but mix that with DRAGO who operate unknown beneath the surface..." Methos admitted. "And unfortunately, because of Lenny being a bloody idiot, your window to attack it is shrinking."
"Making this much harder than it had to be." Paul slapped his hand across the nearest table out of frustration. "Everyone's gonna be on high alert for us, so sneaking in will be next to impossible." The team leader sat down, knowing this was going to be tough to pull off.
"Wait. Maybe we can use this to our advantage. If the feds and DRAGO are both coming after us, we can use that to help bring down that factory. Although best case scenario, if we succeed, it won't be pretty the next time the US and England have to do business."

"If my hunch is correct, there's gotta be something here. As much as I don't care anymore... my gut is telling me to go find out what is going on behind closed doors. Probably something that asshole Zephyr is planning something worse...," he said as he looked for any clues, not wanting to police to find him. Without his morpher, Lenny would be powerless, however, his past experience in boxing would be handy if he gets caught.

"Hey you!" One of the palace guards spotted Lenny looking around. He and one of his fellow guards approached the criminal before he could get inside. Unknown to the former Ranger, when he called Omar, it led to him and the Rangers being discovered and in terms of the CIA, they wasted no time in alerting their counterparts from across the pond with him being recognized. While the two guards were approaching Lenny, one of them began calling local authorities, alerting them of who they found.
"We saw your face on the tele. Can't have you sullying our streets." He said, aiming to detain him while the police were on their way. For Lenny, he had two options, either fight and get humbled by the eventual numbers against him or run and try to figure something else out.

"Hate to break it to y'all, but you can detain me later," Lenny said before flipping over the guards and throwing a sweep kick on their legs, knocking them over, "Gotta find out what's happening here!" he said before running off to find what was inside the Palace.

Unfortunately for Lenny, the numbers would soon become too great for him to overcome. More guards came out to aid their colleagues with several of them actively restraining him, leaving him helpless at the moment. What he didn't realize was that this commotion would indirectly help the Rangers, whenever they would arrive. Hopefully, this period of being restrained and then detained would allow for the drug dealer to reflect.

Lenny tried to escape, but with the overwhelming amount of guards coming in, he had nowhere to run nor to fight. As he tried to fight off the restraint, he began to think about everything that had happened and what Methos had said to him as well as the Rangers. Even though he has every right to feel hurt by the people around him in the past, his behavior is what caused the problem and he knew he had to come to terms that there are people that do care about him, but because of the trauma and hurt, he had pushed them away. He mentally cursed at himself, and after what he did, there was no way they would let him back in. He began to accept his wrongdoings and he had to make the biggest choice of his life.

"What did you have in mind?" Methos asked.
"If we go in like gangbusters and everyone is focusing on us, the feds and DRAGO will eventually turn on each other. If it turns into a free for all, we can slip down to the lower levels, find their factory and blow the place sky high." Paul laid out his chaos driven plan.
"So best case scenario, your plan works, London loses a historical landmark, and tense relations between two countries for at least the next decade. Worst case scenario, there's massive casualties, including the four of you."
"You make it sound so sexy." Paul quipped. "If anyone has a better idea, speak now or forever hold your peace because we have to go." He looked around at the rest of the team, seeing if anyone else had any input.

While Lenny was caught in the restraints, Jaguar finally arrived to see what was going on and he just cringed. "Lenny!" he shouted out and when Lenny heard Jaguar, he had an idea, he knew that he was going to get himself arrested, but it was the only way. He slams his head onto one guard and elbows him, freeing himself, he looks at the guards. "As much as those guys don't want me back, This might give them the chance to break in. Something is going on in that palace. I just know it," he said before turning to Jaguar.
"And you, get the fuck outta here, now! You gotta quit following me like a lost puppy!" he shouted out.
"Not until we talk! We need to settle this now!" the former SPD Ranger shouted out.
Lenny just ignored the Yellow Ranger and looked at the guards. "Hope this gives them time!" he said, looking at the guards. "Come on!"

Wayne shook his head sighing. "I have nothing..." He said knowing time was of the essence as he registered the plans.
