Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

My girlfriend currently went through a divorce. In the divorce papers, the father is supposed to have the kids from Sunday evening to

Thursday evening. He's threatening to take the kids tonight and not bring them back. He also saying that if she doesn't bring the kids, she will be in contempt. She doesn't know what to do. Any advice?
