Killer
* Jaric Pessod
Motive
* Naing: Jaric! How could you kill your own neighbour?!
* Jaric: Excuse me? I'd never do such a thing!
* Naing: Yeah, right! You used your own necklace to strangle him!
* Jaric: What are you talking about?!
* Naing: Cut the crap, Jaric! You left your fingerprints on the rope you hung Agent Blennington on after killing him!
* Jaric: Well, well...it seems you really are as smart as everyone's been saying...
* Naing: What the hell are you talking about?!
* Jaric: I've heard a lot about you, detectives, and now that I finally get the pleasure of meeting you in person, I must say I'm quite impressed!
* Jaric: Even our own leader spoke so highly of you! You know how rare that is?
* Naing: You're a Liberator, aren't you? 
* Jaric: I sure am!
* Naing: So why'd you kill Tom?
* Jaric: Why'd you think I killed him? He got Ari arrested!
* Jaric: You see, our leader cares very much for Ari. He's even left her everything in his will. 
* Jaric: He wanted anything that had to do with Ari's arrest arrested after several attempts to break her out ended up failing.
* Naing: Why are you guys doing this?! What's Hamad planning?!
* Jaric: I can't tell you that, but what I can say is this.
* Jaric: The storm is coming, my friend! And I think it's best that you get out of its way before it's too late...
* Naing: You'll have to explain that to the judge then! Let's see what he thinks about this little storm!
* Jaric: Nah, I can't do that...I've got more to do!
* Jaric: holding a smoke grenade See you later, detectives!
* The smoke distracts Naing long enough for Jaric to run away undetected.
The Storm's Arrival (1/24):
After Jaric escapes, we go to Ari's cell and tell the prison staff to keep transferring her to various different locations to minimize the chances of her escape. However, before she goes, she says she wants to talk to us. Ari tells us that despite her beliefs still remaining the same, she's willing to team up with us against Hamad. She said that he's become such a monster that it's too much for even her. She tells us that despite Hamad's efforts, she knows he's trying to lure her out of prison to kill her so there won't be anyone to challenge him for the head of the Liberators. Ari is then transferred and we tell everything to Jamal. He says he wouldn't trust Ari as far as he can throw her but that if she's willing to give information, he's all ears, as it's been impossible to get a single word out of her for the two years they've had her behind bars. We then get a tip from Julio about the murder of a DPM agent in one of St. Lucia's beaches and we rush to the scene immediately.
