**FADE IN:** **EXT. ATLANTA STREET - DAY** Jonathan is walking, trying to clear his head. A black van screeches to a halt beside him. Two men in tactical gear jump out and grab him. From a car down the street, Reign watches it happen. REIGN (into comms) They have him. Go. Suddenly, chaos erupts. A garbage truck, driven by one of Reign’s men, plows into the van. A multi-car pile-up ensues. In the confusion, Reign’s team, disguised as civilians, extracts Jonathan from the wreck. **INT. GRIMY APARTMENT - LATER** Jonathan is pushed into a small, squalid apartment in a rundown building. The windows are boarded up. JONATHAN What is this? Where are we? REIGN (from the doorway) An old safe house. Off the grid. No tech, no connections. She closes the heavy steel door. A series of locks click into place. JONATHAN (CONT’D) Reign, you can’t keep me here! REIGN (through the door) I’m not keeping you here, Jon. I’m keeping the key in its box. This is your life now. Until I say otherwise. Jonathan pounds on the door, but it’s solid steel. He’s a prisoner. For his own protection. **SMASH CUT TO BLACK.** **ON SCREEN TEXT: TO PROTECT THE KING, THE QUEEN BECAME HIS JAILER.** **END OF EPISODE 13**
