Jay-Jay soon arrives and EZ immediately exits the trailer to confront him. Sofía waits inside but listens intently to their conversation. Jay-Jay explains his fellow prisoners were suspicious EZ cut a deal after failing to locate the prison EZ had been moved to. EZ claims that’s because he kept to himself, but Jay-Jay knows the feds don’t just escort a guy doing 25-to-life out of prison so he can join a motorcycle club. EZ threatens Jay-Jay after he asks what the club would do if they knew there was an informant amongst them. Jay-Jay explains he is not there to turn EZ in; he wants a job working for the club and he’ll do anything to make money.

Sofía drives to the clubhouse and finds Bottles, a Prospect for the club banging on EZ's trailer door. Bottles runs to her in a panic and says that someone needs her help. Sofía follows him and finds Lobo, another Mayan convulsing, a man next to him explains that he has overdosed on fentanyl. Sofía reminds Bottles that she is a vet and doesn't know what to do.

She years yelling outside and exits to find Tony on the floor with Bottles pointing a gun at him whilst Tony pleads that he just wants to speak to Sofía. She frantically explains to Bottles that she knows him and will hear him out.
Sofía demands to know what Tony wants and he starts to explain that whilst Sofía was in prison he would write to her every month, but she never returned his correspondence. Sofía admits that she never even read the letters and Tony tells her he shouldn't have had to carry the burden by herself. Sofía cuts him off and asks him what he wants. Tony sorrowfully recants that he has forgiven himself for not being there and Sofía should do the same. This causes Sofía to become emotional and she backs up and Tony tries to follow; this causes Bottles to jump in and pull Tony away and threatening him to leave the property. It is quite clear that Tony is Sofía's ex-boyfriend and the father of her dead daughter.
EZ returns home, Sofía immediately begins to hit him as she sobs, telling him that watching Lobo die bought back horrid memories of who she used to be. She laments on how she couldn't save her daughter either. EZ admits to her that the club is in a bad way and he should've told her the extent of their problems.

Angel tells Sofía aggressively that she has to get EZ to stop with the fentanyl as his actions are going to get everyone hurt. Sofía tells Angel that he should leave as he quickly apologises and begins to rant about how he should've just burned everything down. Sofía demands Angel explain what he means but he leaves the trailer.
Hearing the club return from business, Sofía exits the trailer and sees EZ parks his bike and stumble off, he is badly injured. He is quickly helped by Sofía who helps him shower and clean up. Sofía then assists EZ in walking in to the clubhouse, before they enter, she tells him that they need to speak about Angel as he came to speak to her earlier today and said some odd things.

Sofía goes to Tony's house and unloads on him about how he said that he forgives her, Tony sticks to his beliefs and tells Sofía that they were only kids and they can't blame themselves. Sofía furiously tells Tony that it was their one job as parents to keep Olivia safe and they failed. Tony tells Sofía that she is selfish for not appreciating that she is still alive. Suddenly, Tony's mother emerges and runs to embrace Sofía.
Sofía sits with Tony and his mother as they look through images of them and Olivia. Tony reminds her that she will never be truly gone as long as they remember her. He then begins to preach some Christian teachings to her as Tony's mother agrees. Sofía glances around at the various images that Olivia drew, still stuck on the fridge.
Sofía returns to the clubhouse, she puts the picture of her and Olivia inside her sun visor in her car. She sits with Bottles and tells him "She's gone, and nothing will ever bring her back. She is dead, and so am I." A confused Bottles listens, but says nothing.
"Her Blacks Crackle and Drag"[]

Creeper was killed in prison.
The club carry Creeper's casket to the clubhouse. Inside the clubhouse, the club listen to a eulogy by Yvette, Creeper's half-sister. Yvette says that when they were younger, their home life was very rough due to their mother's drug addiction, but Creeper always made sure that his siblings were fed, and had clothes. Yvette proclaims that she is so grateful for the Mayans, as Creeper finally found his home. She addresses them all by name.
EZ then addresses the crowd. He says "I killed my brother. I killed Creeper. It was on my watch. And I'll never forgive myself for that." EZ's weak way of admitting guilt, without giving himself away. A young woman emerges from the crowd, Santo Padre recognise her as Creeper's girlfriend, she approaches Creeper's casket and places her hands on him, before quickly leaving the clubhouse.
The club toast to Creeper's life, raising water bottles in his honour, dying as he lived, a sober man. Santo Padre carry the casket as Creeper is loaded in to the back of a hearse.
That night, EZ gets in to bed with Sofía. He is incredibly distant and says nothing to her.
