Clarissa dragged the unconscious hostage upstairs and made her way to the roof.

From there, she could see that the crowd had backed far away, and her gun had limited range, making it hard to hit anyone. However, she shouted down, threatening to shoot if anyone approached the house. Since her hostage was unconscious, Clarissa had her hands free to call Mr. Dunn, asking him to come rescue her. She didn't want to die or take everyone with her she wanted to escape. She had a small helicopter and thought if Mr. Dunn flew it over, he could help her get away.

She begged her mother not to try and escape because it was pointless. There was no way out for Clarissa tonight. Clarissa looked down at Kathryn, briefly considering shooting her own daughter. Pedro watched anxiously, ready to protect Kathryn, even if it meant risking his own life.

But Clarissa hesitated. She couldn't bring herself to shoot Kathryn, even though they didn't share the same values or mindset.
