A drug lord wants the pretty GHS and kidnaps Xander when he is out with the baby, giving the baby over to his girl when Xander doesn’t co-operate to get him to give in.
Xander goes ballistic and rampages throughout the compound to get the kid back safely and then rips the drug lords mind apart to get where his other hidey holes are to destroy those as well using hellfire to burn all of them to the bedrock with the people in them who aren’t innocents, those he leaves outside the radius and calls the authorities for them
Afterwards he destroys the man’s pipeline and distribution network getting the word out to NOT mess with him.
Larabee’s team and Horatio are called in to try and calm Xander down but are told to bugger off, the man took the baby; they would get Xander calmed down in their own way, but until then GO AWAY!
Xander sends imps to every street corner drug seller in Denver until they turn themselves in and hellhounds on the distributors to get the word out to leave him alone and to never bother him again.
Xander gives the city a grant for more drug rehab centers to get teens off the streets and into rehab
