Previously on Saints & Sinners...
[Ella Screams]
[Gunshot] [Man Grunts]
- Listen, Jabari, everybody knows that you hated her.
- I didn't kill Angela.
- Dr. Layne, where did they move Miles?
- Code gray, code gray!
- Where are you going?
- I'll call you.
- Bari, please!
- We got a name, Ray Ray Jenkins.
We're moving forward with the arrest.
- What is this?
- Tactical plans, all of it.
- I need you to give this to your boss.
[Door Bursts Open]
- Police, remain where you are!
- Damn it!
He knew we were coming!
- I didn't come here for no violence.
- I'm not looking for a daddy, Rex.
But does Jabari know that you killed his, though?
[Ray Ray Chuckles]
Rex Fisher, speechless.
From what I understand, this is a new look for you.
I mean, you said you wanted to talk, I'm listening.
- All I'm doing, man, is trying to find some common ground.
To make peace--
- There ain't gonna be no peace.
Because me and you are at war, Rex.
And just because some old bitch popped up talking about,
"Hey, this your daddy and this your son"
don't change nothing for me.
- Well, for me, it changes everything.
- What about Jabari?
Does it change everything for him when he finds out that his OG, who raised him,
put his daddy in the dirt?
- What the hell are you talking about, boy?
- That don't sound like denial to me, Pops!
See, I know all the facts.
My man Marshall, he...
He cleaned for you.
Now, you and I both know he didn't make all that up.
- Marshall...
Was a desperate old fool, that's what he was.
- Mm-hmm.
- Lost his touch.
That's why he was running behind you young bucks trying to clean things up.
[Ray Ray Chuckles]
And he was trying to keep that money coming in
so he could get his mother's heart medicine and put food on his table.
He would've said anything or done anything
to keep that paper coming.
That's who Marshall was. - Damn.
This is, it's actually sad. I...
I didn't know Jabari's little ass had you shook like that!
I mean, you're a little soft for a punk that ain't even yours.
You really don't want this to come out, do you?
[Rex Scoffs] Huh?
- You ain't got no proof.
- I don't need no proof.
- Yeah, well, Jabari's not gonna believe a damn thing you say
because he knows he can't trust you.
- Right, right, right. Well...
Here's the thing, Rex.
- What's the thing, bro?
- All I have to do is make him a little suspicious, just a little.
Once he second guesses you for one second,
that's when I drop in that little mustard seed of distrust.
Then, everything changes.
Can never go back.
I mean, hell, look at Paige and Jabari.
(chuckles) It's a mess over there.
- You keep playing these games...
Your luck is gonna run out.
- Luck.
Luck is for people who ain't good.
I'm very good at what I do.
Plus, I'm having so much fun.
You know, the stolen UpSurge thing, that was...
That was light.
- Yeah. - Mm-hmm.
- You, Jabari, Marshall, Ella...
You're all pieces of my game.
- Here's what you need to remember.
Son or not.
As you keep making your moves, I won't hesitate to take your ass off the board.
- Damn.
Well...
I guess you don't know this about me yet.
[Gun Clicks] But um...
[Suspenseful Music]
I'm already off the board a little bit.
Do it.
[Ray Ray Chuckles]
Man, you ain't my daddy 'cause I'd have shot your ass.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
[Ray Ray Grunts]
- [Ray Ray] Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Don't touch him.
- Come on.
Come on.
- He good, he done.
- Y'all remember something, boy.
Next time, your ass better kill me.
[Gun Thuds]
[Ray Ray Laughs]
I won't have to, Rex.
Now, you might wanna leave before we show you what these things really do.
- [Rex] Yeah.
I'll see you around.
- He really hit me, man.
[Ray Ray Laughs]
* Go lift your hand, give God the praise
* I fell so hard
* Lost my faith in God
* I couldn't even pray
* So I say [Gun Clicks]
[Gunshot] * We're just sinners saved by grace. *
- Tony...
- No, no, I don't, I don't need excuses.
I need answers.
Somebody tipped off Ray Ray.
The man is laughing at us.
I need everyone connected to this operation questioned.
Anybody with any knowledge of it.
Best case scenario, our correspondents are sloppy as hell.
Worst case, we got a mole.
- Tony, I mean...
It's OK, it's gonna be OK.
We just have a momentary setback.
- Setback?
Ella, this is an embarrassment.
Ray Ray saw us coming a mile away.
- Which means he's getting too comfortable.
He's gonna slip up and make a mistake.
[He Groans]
- After what happened to Richards and Ross being released,
our task force is this close to being disbanded.
We're about to lose this case, Ella.
- I won't let that happen.
We won't let that happen.
- We need a win.
- And we'll get one!
Look, I'll enlist my contacts.
Now, some of them might be a little unsavory
but I'll see what I can find out about Ray Ray's whereabouts.
- No.
No, we're closing ranks.
Going forward, only the people we know we can trust
will have any insight into our movements.
- Tony, we have the same goal.
We're a team.
I trust you.
And I can honestly say I've never had that before.
I mean, a partner that truly has my back.
- I trust you too. [Kisses]
- We will get Ray Ray, OK?
We just have to trust each other.
And together...
We can't lose.
Oh, no.
Not here.
Not now.
- Let's dissolve out of this clip into that one.
And then we got a commercial coming in 90 seconds.
- Hey.
- Look what came for you today.
- What is this?
- Go ahead and open it and find out!
- "Congratulations!
"In recognition of your outstanding news coverage,
"WQCL is the recipient of the Broadcast Award."
- (laughing) Amazing, right?
- Yeah!
- It's a very prestigious honor
only given to a few stations nationally.
I mean, we stood out because of our coverage on the organ ring.
Right, w--
It says here there's an award ceremony.
- Yeah, and it's being held right here in Cypress.
You know what? I was thinking that,
you know, as two co-owners of this station
that don't have official plus-ones,
that maybe, we could go together--
- Thank you for the invite, I appreciate it.
I already have someone in mind for my plus-one.
[Nervously Laughs]
- Oh, of course.
As a matter of fact, I have someone in mind, too.
- Great, well, I look forward to seeing you there.
- Likewise!
Oh, look, I have a meeting so I'll see you later?
- OK. - OK.
[He Sighs]
Ella!
Looks like our partnership is paying off already.
What are you doing next week?
[Tamara] I'm telling you, Josie has him.
He's been in an induced coma for months.
He didn't just get up and walk away.
- Would anyone else have a reason to abduct Mr. Calloway?
No! No one else.
Look, you're wasting time, OK?
Miles needs to be under the care of professionals.
They just gave him the medication to bring him out of the coma.
He's not in any position to be on his own.
He can't even defend himself!
- Defend?
Are you saying that Josie might be a threat to Mr. Calloway, that she might harm him?
- No, of course not... Not intentionally.
[He Sighs] OK.
O-OK, things have obviously been intense between us recently and...
Josie definitely wasn't thrilled about me moving Miles to Florida
but she loves him.
She would never hurt him.
Now, look, Miles is in medical danger.
You just need to find him and bring him back to the hospital
so he can get the care he needs, OK?
- We're gonna continue our investigation.
We'll be in touch, Ms. Austin.
- Thank you.
[She Exhales]
[Heart Beating]
[They Struggle]
[Squelching] [He Grunts]
[Heartbeat Quickens]
[Miles Grunts]
- Wait--
[He Gasps]
[Tense Music]
[Sinister Music]
Bari!
You're home.
Are you staying?
- I don't think so, I just came to get a few things just in case, you know...
- You have to stay.
We have to fix this-- - Babe.
I don't know if we can fix this.
- Baby, remember what you said to me when you found out
Angela might be pregnant?
We've faced death.
Compared to that,
we can do anything
if we're together.
So, let's do it, baby. Let's get through this together.
I got a call.
You know the man that held me hostage in a facility, Dr. Ross?
He's been released.
- What?
How?
- I don't know, the police didn't tell me anything.
The lawyer said that he might've turned or testified
against someone higher in the organ ring.
- Who the hell is higher in the organ ring
than the person slicing up the bodies and taking the damn organs?
- I don't know, babe.
It's just between that damn deposition and now this release,
I just feel like...
Like he's out there.
Like he's after me.
It's, I've lost so much.
My time, my...
- Your what?
- My eggs.
Baby, when I was in there, he ran experiments on me.
He did things to me I didn't even know.
[Bag Thuds]
(voice breaking) I may not have kids ever again.
[Tender Music]
- Sh, sh, sh, sh...
- (crying) Baby, he mutilated me!
- Babe, babe--
- He mutilated my body! - No, no.
- Listen to me, you're fine baby.
You're fine, I'm here. I'm here for you.
It's gonna be OK.
We're gonna be OK. OK?
Breathe, breathe.
[She Breathes]
I love you.
OK?
[She Exhales]
[She Sighs]
- I just need to know that you and I aren't broken.
That I haven't lost you, too.
- Baby.
We aren't broken.
You're my wife, my life, my love.
We can never be broken.
- I got you.
[He Grunts And Coughs]
Now, the doctor said that you're gonna have
some difficulty breathing, OK? [He Clears Throat]
Your lung's punctured.
[He Coughs]
You just need to rest... [He Grunts]
and it'll heal. - Right.
[Clears Throat]
Can I get some water? [Clears Throat]
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.
[He Grunts]
Alright.
- I got you. - OK.
[He Coughs]
- There you go.
[He Groans And Sighs]
OK.
[He Grunts]
Here you go, I got you. - Thanks.
- I rented this place so you could have some peace and quiet
while you recover.
- I appreciate it.
(coughs) You really came through for me!
- And I always will.
Oh, I have something for you!
Hold on!
[Rattling Sound]
[She Laughs]
[He Scoffs]
This is for you
so that you can get around on your own when you get your strength back.
See?
- Wow.
[She Laughs]
You thought of everything.
- I'll make us some lunch, alright?
- Can I borrow your phone?
I wanna... [Clears Throat]
I want to call Tam.
[Clears Her Throat]
- Why?
- I want to see if we can, ahem, arrange for Austin to come over here. You know?
I miss my son.
- Hmm.
Of course but, you know, it's been hard to nail down Tam lately.
She's been so busy with UpSurge. - (coughing) Mm-hmm.
- But, uh, I'll give her a call after lunch
and set up something for you and Austin.
- But...
- Ahem!
- Right now,
I just really think you need to focus on your recovery
and getting your strength back.
OK? - Yeah.
Yeah. [Clears Throat]
- OK.
- You're right.
- I'll make you a sandwich. - Alright.
[He Coughs]
- I'm just glad to see you and Paige have patched things up
and got back together, man.
- Yeah, you're just glad to have me back out your house!
- That's not true, man, I enjoyed having you.
I'm just kinda old to have a roommate, you know what I'm saying?
[He Laughs]
- Yeah, yeah.
- But you know in a way, it kinda worked out.
I got a target on my back.
That whole thing with Ray Ray is starting to escalate.
- Yeah, Ray Ray, yeah--
Why is your new son everywhere in my life right now?
- I know.
I'm telling you now, Jabari,
we gotta steer clear of him, man.
Paige, too.
He's playing games, Jabari.
He's trying to get inside of your head, mess with your mental.
Trying to do the same thing with me.
- Yeah, well, look we good.
So, he gonna have to regroup on that one.
- Yeah.
Well, like I said, we good.
Is that what you came over here to talk about?
I just wanted you to know I had a chance to look into your father's prison record.
I don't know about all that, uh, those redacted papers and all that stuff
but I do know that the D.A. that tried your father's case?
He resigned shortly after your father's release.
So, I don't know, maybe they had something on him
and that's why he had to let Bishop out.
- So, you think the D.A. might have messed up something?
- I don't know.
D.A. might have trumped up the charges, you know what I'm saying?
It ain't the first time a Black man got screwed by the system.
- And that's probably how he got the early release.
- I don't know, me and your daddy ain't talk about specifics.
I mean, we was just glad to have him out.
But it could be one of those things where justice
was finally served, you know what I'm saying?
- Hmm, maybe.
Did you go see Marshall before he hung himself?
[Tense Music]
- Who told you that, Ray Ray?
Huh?
You see what he's trying to do, Jabari?
He's trying to push your buttons.
Get you to do something stupid so he can swoop in on Paige.
That's what he's trying to do.
- Did you go see Marshall?
- Yeah, I did. Ain't no big deal.
- You told me you didn't know him.
- You know, man, let me say something to you
about street stuff, you know what I'm saying?
Marshall was old school, and the kind of work that he'd do,
you ain't supposed to know him.
You understand what I'm saying?
It's a hard go.
Me and Marshall go way back, bro.
And when you started talking about him
it made me curious about how he was doing.
Prison can be hard on old dogs like Marshall.
So, I figured he could use a friendly face.
That's all that was about.
We good?
- Yeah, we good.
- You want a drink?
- Yeah, I'll have one.
- Good.
There we go, Jabari.
Got some good stuff, too.
[Tense Music]
- Josie?
(whispering) Josie...
Oh, God.
[Phone Vibrating]
[She Scoffs]
[Vibrating Intensifies]
[Phone Clicks]
[Phone Vibrates]
- Not now, Rex. [Phone Clicks]
I'm here!
[Door Creaks Open]
[Suspenseful Music]
Oh...
So you, uh, relocated?
- Yeah.
I decided I really like Cypress.
It's close to family.
- Hmm...
- What's that saying again? A family that prays together--
- Kills together, yeah.
Look, Ray Ray, I'm not here to waste either one of our time, OK?
I gave you that tip about the raid on Juicy's.
So, that should make it very clear that I'm not trying
to get you apprehended by the authorities.
- That was very thoughtful of you.
I mean...
Except the fact you tried to kill me also.
- Yeah, but you did the same thing.
I mean but look, we're still standing, you know?
Hey, it happens.
[He Chuckles]
I'm just trying to protect my family and now, that includes you.
So, giving you that heads up on that raid, it cost me
and it could cost you too because I'm this close from getting that case
taken away from my task force.
- OK, so exactly how's that cost me, Auntie?
- Well, because women are missing, Ray Ray.
The authorities will not stop and if I'm gone,
you have nobody to watch your back and believe me,
they will just send somebody else in to bring you down.
Hell, I need a win.
We both do.
- Right place, right time.
I've got your win.
I'm sorry, our win.
Come on out!
- Well, I'll be damned!
[Eerie String Music]
Have you seen Ella Johnson?
I got a message she was here.
- Special prosecutor Ella Johnson is here
with what she's described as a massive breakthrough in the organ ring investigation.
WQCL has the exclusive.
[Ella] I am so happy to announce that this morning
my task force received a tip regarding the whereabouts of a very high-profile abductee
in connection with the organ ring.
We were able to track the abductee to what we believe is the ring's base of operation.
The investigation uncovered intel that the operators of this ring
have now fled the state. However, we will be working tirelessly
with federal authorities to track them down.
So, as far as we can now see,
the state of Georgia is safe again.
- Yeah, but are they safe from your ass? That's the question.
- Exactly.
[Anita] Special Prosecutor Johnson, can you tell us?
Who is this high-profile abductee?
I am so glad that you asked that, Anita.
Because I wanted to present this news exclusively to WQCL
because it affects one of your own.
I am happy to announce that with the assistance
of Athens, Georgia entrepreneur Raymond Jenkins,
we have found and we have rescued
one of Cypress's own Angela Parks!
- What the hell?!
- And we are so proud and grateful to reveal
that the child that Angela is carrying
is thriving and doing well.
[Intense Music]
[Anita] Well...
This is a WQCL exclusive.
We'll be right back.
[Miles Groans]
- Slow down, babe.
Look, don't overdo it.
OK, there's no need to rush.
The whole point of this place is so that you can take your time
and fully recover.
- I know, but I need to get better for Austin.
I don't wanna scare him seeing me like this.
[He Grunts]
- Look at me, look at me.
You could never scare him.
OK?
- Yeah, you're right. [Panting]
Hey, uh, ahem, maybe we should...
call him, you know?
Call Tam, a video call?
[Stammers] I'd like to see him.
Yeah. - Hmm.
- Ahem, yeah, OK um...
You just wait here and I'll go and get my phone.
OK? - Mm-hmm, OK.
[He Pants]
[He Groans]
[He Coughs]
[Dramatic Music]
Rex, Rex, don't hang up.
[Rex] Yo, yo, yo.
Josie.
The last time we talked, I told you we needed to have limited contact.
Why are you calling me?
- I need you to get a plane ticket for me and Miles.
You and Miles?
Where the hell are you going?
- Anywhere! Look, I don't care, just out of Georgia
and away from Tam.
[He Scoffs]
[Hammer Thuds]
- Josie.
You sound crazy.
I got Miles out of that state hospital for you.
Put him in one of my safehouses.
I ain't no damn travel agent.
- Look, Rex, Rex, please!
- I can't help you, Josie.
The police are hunting for your ass.
Don't you understand that?
So, this is the last time we are talking,
at least until the heat is off of you.
- Wha-- [Stammers]
- Good luck out there.
- Rex, Rex!
Damn it!
[Shoes Scuffing]
Oh!
- What's wrong?
- Nothing! You know, I was just trying to call Tam but I can't get any reception.
I think it's the service out here.
But, look, you know what? You've been working way too hard, baby.
Let's lay down for a nap, OK?
OK? - Yeah, let's, uh...
Sounds good.
- Come on, I've got you.
- You have jeopardized this entire investigation.
What the hell were you thinking?!
- I was thinking that the public needed to know that we rescued Angela Parks,
our most high-profile abductee!
- I didn't authorize a rescue attempt!
And I didn't authorize you to go on TV.
You have gone completely rogue, Ella!
- Well, if me going rogue means we're getting things done, then so be it!
We saved a woman's life!
You should be thanking me!
- Thanking you?
You have ruined the entire case
we were building against Ray Ray!
- You had no evidence, no leads.
Dr. Ross is your only witness and he's an unreliable psychopath at best!
And I don't remember you consulting me
about releasing Ross despite him terrorizing my daughter!
Look, Angela Parks is at home safe
and so is her unborn child.
This is a win!
- Angela Parks is home safe under some very suspicious circumstances
that I don't understand and you haven't bothered to try to explain.
But what I do understand is you have managed to turn our prime suspect
into a damn hometown hero.
- All I did was follow the evidence.
And if it leads us away from Ray Ray, then so be it.
This is a victory, Tony. Act like it!
(sighs) You know,
I think we both deserve a drink.
You are welcome to join me.
- No thank you.
If you can run rescue ops alone,
then you can drink alone, too.
- Oh, whatever, Tony.
- Welcome back, Angela!
- Anita, thank you.
- Look at you, you're just such a hero!
- A hero?
- Mm-hmm.
- I'm just happy I was able to keep the little one safe.
[Anita Sighs]
Ooh, well today's been overwhelming.
I'm gonna go catch my breath.
- Of course! Go get settled.
But remember, we need to set up that interview soon.
On camera.
Good to have you back.
[She Laughs]
[He Chuckles]
- That was quite the performance.
Oscar worthy, really.
- Well, you wanted a show.
You got one.
- I wanted ratings, and you and Ray Ray have been delivering for months.
- Just as we promised.
- Well done. [She Laughs]
How's the baby?
The baby's doing just fine.
Don't worry.
Your baby cousin's playing a starring role in the next phase of our plan.
Oh, Jabari!
(laughing) I'm safe!
- You showing up here with Ray Ray?
You were safe the whole damn time!
- What do you mean--
- You, the both of you. Y'all planned this!
- Jabari, I fought so hard to protect our child.
So, yes, I escaped my abductors
and, yes, I'm so grateful I was able to turn to Ray Ray
because he helped me and our baby get back to you safely.
Why aren't you happy?
- Happy?
Happy?
You had people thinking that I killed your ass.
Look, is that even my baby?!
- Jabari!
That's no way to talk to the mother of your child.
Angela has been through enough.
- I can't believe that you would attack her like that.
What is wrong with you, Jabari?
[Jabari Chuckles]
- OK, this is not over.
She's playing you.
She's playing both of you, all of you!
[She Cries]
- You're OK.
[Miles Coughing Loudly]
- Baby?
[Coughing Fit Continues]
[Miles Panting]
[Coughing Louder] Babe, baby, baby!
Are you OK, are you OK?
- (struggling) I'm having trouble breathing!
I think I need a doctor! [Coughing]
- No, no, no, no, no...
[Coughing]
You're OK. Look, I ordered you an inhaler
and it should be ready at the pharmacy.
It's... I'll go pick it up.
I'll go pick it up now, OK?
[Coughing] Oh, baby!
- Please, hurry!
[Coughing Harder]
[Panting And Coughing]
- I'll be right back, OK?
[Door Closes]
[Coughing Softens]
[He Grunts]
[Receiver Thuds]
[He Pants]
[Dark String Music]
[He Pants]
(shouts) H-Hello?!
Hey!
Anybody hear me?!
[Uneasy Music]
Hey!
[Ray Ray] Of course they thought I did it.
Now every time somebody gets shot, they pointing at me.
I'm like, "I'm not that violent."
I'm all about nonviolence, especially--
- We need to talk.
- I'm sorry, I'm actually in the middle of a conversation right now.
Ooh!
- Trust me.
It ain't worth it.
- OK, OK, OK.
Can y'all just give me a second? I'm sorry.
I know this is so ratchet, please forgive me.
- You lied to me.
- I never lied to you, I just didn't reveal the truth.
- You made me think that bitch was dead.
Why?
What was that all about?
We always said we weren't gonna lie to each other.
- Oh, promises?
So, now, we're talking about the promises we made to each other?
What about the promises you made to me before you started messing with Jabari?
- That's ancient history!
You know the situation with Jabari was complicated.
None of the decisions I made were easy!
- We all make choices, Queenie.
Gotta live with 'em.
- Or die with them.
Angela being alive is a complication.
I don't need anymore complications.
- "Complication."
Why?
Is it because of her little bundle of joy?
Is that complicating your happy home?
- You're messing with my marriage!
- I don't give a damn about your marriage, Paige.
You didn't invite me to the wedding.
So, you damn sure ain't about to invite me to the divorce.
- Don't touch me!
[He Chuckles]
All of this is you trying to get back at me
for choosing Jabari over you.
- Maybe just a little.
But remember, you called me.
Now, I'm just doing what's best for me.
Angela's more valuable to me alive than dead.
If that changes, I'll let you know.
But, hey, look.
At least Jada may finally get the little brother or sister you always wanted for her.
Congratulations!
- Thank you so much for staying late and doing this for me.
Things have just been so crazy with the upcoming relocation.
- And...
Boom, there we go.
- Oh. [She Chuckles]
Wow, thank you! [She Laughs]
Really, I...
M-My son Austin got a hold of my old phone
and tried to take it apart.
I thought he'd locked it forever.
Didn't want to lose those old contacts, you know?
- For sure.
[She Laughs]
You know, actually, I...
I think your role is indispensable.
You know, we should really talk about a compensation package for your relocation.
- (chuckles) That would be amazing!
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, great, we'll schedule it.
- Awesome, thank you!
- But in the meantime,
do you have an extra one of those that I can have to unlock the phone,
you know, just in case?
- Uh, here we go...
Here.
- Oh, God, thank you!
[She Laughs] - Thank you!
- Thank you.
Drive safe! [She Chuckles]
[Rex Muttering]
- Sit your ass down!
- You could've just knocked, Pops.
[Chips Rattling]
- What's your angle, player?
You got Angela popping up from the dead like a damn cockroach
and you got Jabari close to the truth about his father.
What you want, man?
Huh?!
- I mean, you done came in here making all this noise,
got your gun on my man.
Seems like you want something.
But I can guess what it is.
You want to make up with your long lost son.
Hmm? Make up for lost time.
I mean, the apple don't fall too far from the tree.
So, I get it.
Oh, seriously, Rex.
Think about it.
Me and you together.
This Athens and Cypress thing is small fries.
We can do some real big things, man.
I'm talking global.
- So, you want to collaborate now?
You wanna partner up?
Is that what you want to do?
(clicks tongue) I wasn't born yesterday, Youngblood.
So, I'ma ask you a question.
What do you want?
- I just want what Jabari has.
A clean rap with the community.
A gangster-ass daddy to go around and clean my mess up behind me.
And that fine ass wife that once belonged to me.
I'ma, I'ma need that back.
That's it.
- What the hell does that have to do with me and all the chaos you've caused?
I will blow his head off.
[Gunshot]
[Object Clangs]
- It's simple.
I need you to kill Jabari
before he finds out what you did and kills you first.
[Dramatic Music]
[Angela Chuckles]
Welcome back.
You're looking healthy.
- No thanks to you.
- Gotta say...
I started to think you weren't actually pregnant.
Figured that was just another one of your lies.
- No need to lie when the truth is such a blessing.
I'm just happy that I was able to make it back
in time for Jabari to raise his child.
I mean, you and I both know the bond between a child
and his father is so precious.
Unbreakable!
[Angela Sighs]
- That's the thing, Angela.
I don't think you want an unbreakable bond with my husband.
Because that means you have a bond with me.
And me?
I'll break you.
[Angela Chuckles]
[Cackling]
- You tried that already, remember?
And I must admit, you calling Ray Ray was a nice touch.
But that's just another man of yours I have no problem getting to see...
my side of things.
- Keep messing around.
Baby or not,
you're gonna see the wrong side of a grave.
- Ooh!
Always with the threats!
Maybe I should check the status on that restraining order.
- Baby girl, I ain't worried about that paperwork.
You were safer when I thought you were dead.
Don't play with me...
or my family.
- Look, too many things just don't add up.
Ray Ray was obviously tipped off about the raid.
He taunted us about it,
and then he comes parading in with Angela Parks, who's been missing for months,
and he's the savior of Cypress.
[He Chuckles]
Yeah.
Yes, yes, of course, Commissioner.
I think all the incidents are connected.
And you and I both know who connects them.
Ella Johnson.
I want your best men on Ella.
If she's involved with Ray Ray and this organ ring,
I need proof, and fast.
Who know what else she's been getting away with right up under our noses.
You are going down, Ella Johnson.
[She Sighs]
- Did I see Paige stop by your office earlier?
- (sighs) Yeah.
I guess you couldn't be bothered to see if I needed an assist.
- I figured I'd sit back and wait and see if there was gonna be any fireworks.
- Or gunshots.
[She Laughs] - I've been there.
- Mm-hmm.
Alright, where is he? I'm tired.
- He's--
- Enjoying the fruits of Levi's labor.
And I see you keep WQCL well stocked around here.
- For special occasions, breaking news stories, exclusives...
[Liquid Pouring] - And what about awards?
- Yeah...
I've been known to break out the good stuff when I receive an honor.
- [Ray Ray] Hmm.
Well from what I hear, WQCL has a real big one on the way.
- The Broadcast Award. - Uh-huh.
- For the coverage we did on those missing women.
- [Angela] Mm-hmm.
- [Ray Ray] Hmm.
What do you know, we have a former missing woman right here.
- Present and accounted for.
[Both Chuckle]
- Sounds like something we don't want to miss, man.
- Indeed.
I'll get you both your tickets.
And I'll get you what I promised.
- My man.
- I hope you know what you're doing.
'Cause there's no going back after this.
- Oh, I do.
- Here's to a night to remember.
- Hey!
I picked up your inhaler plus a few extra things that I'd thought you'd like.
- I need to talk to Tamara.
[He Coughs]
It's late, Miles. Let me call her tomorrow--
- I need to speak to her.
Now.
- I called her repeatedly.
OK, she's busy. She's running UpSurge.
All I keep getting is her voicemail.
[Miles Coughs]
- You're lying.
- What? - You're lying.
- Miles-- - What is this place, huh?
Huh?
You didn't rent it... [He Pants]
so we could have "peace and quiet" for my recovery.
(panting) There's an entire armory...
inside that closet, Josie. [He Clears Throat]
- Miles.
Look, this isn't--
- No, what is this?!
[He Coughs] - This is a friend's place, OK?
They loaned it to me and I borrowed it
for exactly the reasons that I said that I did.
[Stammers] Look, I just...
Look, I just want to take care of you, baby, that's all--
- Then let me speak to Tam.
Let me speak to Tamara, hmm?
- No.
Why?
You cannot talk to her for exactly
the reasons that I told you that you couldn't!
- I'm not doing this.
- Wait, wait, no, Miles.
[He Grunts] No!
Miles, what can she do for you that I can't, huh?
- Get out of my way! - What has she ever done
for you that I haven't?!
Miles, stop! - Get out of my way!
Move!
[He Coughs]
- You're not going anywhere!
[He Coughs]
