He tends to be a rule follower.
But when it comes to Iris….
He’s breaking the rule for the person that has broken the rules for him so many times.

He recognizes that and it informs this level of determination that we’ve never seen Carlos have before.
What is Carlos thinking when he goes rogue to investigate what happened in that abandoned house?
Iris feels like no one believes her.
Even Carlos' boss is saying, “I don’t believe you.”
I’m going to go find her no matter what it takes."
Most people would not crawl into that tunnel without calling someone or getting backup…
It wasn’t just about Iris missing.
This is something planned, this is something premeditated.
So what will happen when Carlos wakes up?
And this boy’s going to be introuble.
Carlos is going to be in a place where he…. How do I say this?
He is in front of death.
