Mike hallucinates seeing Page, Johnny, Charle and Dale as they each talk to him. He squeezes Paul's hand hard as he vomits into the bucket. Covered in sweat, the group then dumps Mike in a bathtub full of water and ice. In his dream, Mike runs and follows a red robin before it flies away.

Finally, Mike wakes up  and describes the team as the ugliest angels he has ever seen. Paul reminds Mike that he has risen from the dead twice now. 

With the sting operation in place, Germaine finally shows up at the deal. a mysterious woman shows up and interrupts everything with her badge. Dale tries to stall but the deal goes through. Unfortunately, Amber has to go to prison.

Amber thought they ere friends, since she tried to save Charlie's baby. Though Charlie loses her cool, Dale wants to know about the baby. 

After Mike gets himself back together, he tells Paul that he has to try. Paul promises that if he smells Mike relapsing, he calls everything off. Mike pays a visit to Logan and spots something in a photograph.
