Tommy updates Kate.

After killing Benny, Tommy drags his body into his place. He contacts BG who doesn’t answer to find out what to do with the corpse. Tommy ends up finding someone else to help him get rid of the body.

His mother Kate picks him up and he tells her Ghost killed Keisha. She consoles him.

Elisa Marie is at Benny’s place. When Benny doesn’t show up the next morning, she tells her aunt she suspects something bad happened. But her aunt tells her not to worry because Benny is a tough guy.

Tommy wants to leave New York.

Not too long after, Vincent and his crew pull up to Benny’s place. He tells Benny’s sister that he doesn’t know where Benny is. She’s not buying this because she knows Benny recently checked Vincent in front of his crew. So she figures Vincent would want revenge.

Vincent denies this and offers protection until Benny returns. But Benny’s sister says he’s only doing this because he’s afraid of what her Uncle Carlo will do to him.

While Tommy is eating breakfast with his mother, he tells her New York isn’t safe for him anymore. He wants to move to LA and start over. Kate isn’t feeling this. She doesn’t want to have to find another coke dealer, nor does she want him to leave his family behind.

The recording is discovered.

The news then reports Ghost is running to become the next lieutenant governor. This angers Tommy and Kate tries to calm him down. She reminds him that Ghost has had his back for years and they are brothers. Tommy isn’t feeling this and says Ghost has taken everything for him.

Kate doesn’t believe Ghost killed Keisha. But Tommy says that she doesn’t know the new Ghost. And he’s going to kill him.

Back at her uncle’s place, Elisa Marie plays the recording of Tommy killing Ruiz. Her aunt overhears this and asks where she got the audio from. But Elisa has her own questions and asks why her aunt didn’t tell her what Benny was into.

Her aunt says the women in the family have to be strong in order to survive.

Elisa says that she recognizes the man in the recording’s voice and his name is Tommy. She believes her father had proof Tommy killed someone so Tommy killed him. And she doesn’t believe Ghost had anything to do with Proctor’s death.

So her aunt says they need to take the recording to the head of the family, Carlo. Elisa hopes Tommy is dealt with quickly.

Tariq updates Tommy.

Elisa and her aunt meet with Tariq. He hears the audio and says he doesn’t recognize any of the voices. Tariq also says that he doesn’t know who Ghost or Tommy is. After he offers to take the audio home so Tasha can hear it, Elisa’s aunt shuts this down. She questions how Tariq knew to leave the condo for hot cocoa not long before Proctor was killed. He says he just wanted hot cocoa.

Elisa’s aunt says she believes Tariq got word from Tommy about what was getting ready to go down. But Elisa doesn’t believe this and says Tariq is her friend. Her aunt doubts this very much. She tells Tariq to leave and keeps the recording.

Tariq meets with Tommy and tells him about the recording. He believes Elisa got the recording from Proctor and Tariq wasn’t able to retrieve it. But he knows where they are staying. Tommy is shocked the recording is still out there. And he needs to pay Elisa a visit.

Tasha’s earring reappears.

Tommy shows up to listen to Ghost make his announcement speech and leaves early after security keeps looking at him.

After walking out, he runs into Blanca. She wants help to find Keisha’s murderer. She says Ghost has an alibi but he may have still have something to do with it. If Tommy testifies, she’ll let him off the hook for Poncho’s death. She also has a witness who knows about his warehouse.

Tommy acts unmoved but calls BG again. He leaves a voicemail accusing him of being a snitch. He looks at the bag the police put together at Keisha’s crime scene. He sees Tasha’s earring, it’s from the pair Holly stole years ago.

Tommy confronts Tasha.

When Tommy rolls up on Tasha and tells her he knows she killed Keisha, he pulls his gun out on her. She gets scared and tells him to look at the paperwork. Keisha signed paperwork agreeing to flip on Tommy.

Scared for her life, Tasha says Keisha was going to leave with Cash. And Keisha told her she signed to protect Cash and Keisha tried to pull a gun out on her first. Tommy isn’t convinced. Tasha breaks down in tears and begs for her life.

But he doesn’t kill her. He just leaves her apartment with no words.

Back at Benny’s place, Elisa hands a copy of the recording over to her aunt. Before leaving out, her aunt tells Elisa there are people there to protect her outside.

Elisa is kidnapped.

Tommy and Ghost meet on a rooftop. They have a tense conversation about Proctor not getting rid of the recording. Ghost says that he’s moving on from Tommy and he doesn’t need Tommy. It’s Tommy who needs him.

Tommy pulls out a gun on Ghost and shots come from another direction. Both men take out their guns to take down the shooters.

Tommy shoots down one of the shooters (played by comedian Cedric the Entertainer). He gets away by car.

After escaping the gunfight, Tommy goes to Benny’s place and kills Vincent’s men outside. He goes upstairs and tells Elisa he doesn’t want to hurt her. He just wants the recording. She’s scared to death, so Tommy tells her to just come with him.

In the car, Tommy tells her he knows she met with Tariq. Elisa says a copy of the recording was made and Carlo is her great uncle.

Elisa gets more information.

Back at Tommy’s place, Kate comes over and is surprised to see Elisa there. Tommy asks Kate to just watch Elisa until he gets back.

Tommy calls Benny’s sister and says he will let Elisa go if he gets both copies of the recording. He watches on from outside. Vincent tells Carlo that Tommy is Teresi’s son. Carlo says it’s on Vincent to bring Tommy to him because he entertained him in the first place.

While Kate plays in Elisa’s hair, she tells her James is like a second son. When Elisa asks if James has a nickname, Tommy comes back in before she can answer. He has Elisa and Kate hide after there’s a knock on the door. It’s Paz and she demands he kills Jamie because he killed Angela. Tommy is in disbelief and asks her if she really wants him to kill Ghost. He tells her he can’t do this and makes her leave.

Kate and Elisa come back out. And Kate says that it looks as if Tommy isn’t the only one who wants to kill Jamie, unknowingly confirming to Elisa that Jamie’s nickname is Ghost.

Elisa and Tommy bond.

Tommy and Elisa leave and she tells him she doesn’t know how things are going to play out for either of them when it comes to her Great Uncle Carlo.

She sees the engagement ring intended for Keisha. Elisa also overheard Kate talking about Cash. So she asks if Tommy was going to propose to Cash’s mom. She’s sad her mother is dead and both talk about how hard it is having drug addicts as mothers.

Elisa later asks if Tommy killed Proctor. Tommy doesn’t answer and says that Proctor was dirty and a lot of people had a reason to kill him.

Elisa says she knows who Proctor was really was. And he left her mother to die. She knows he did it to protect her. She has nobody now that Benny and Proctor are gone. Elisa feels all alone.

Dre forces Tommy into action.

2 Bit calls Tommy from his prison cell. He tells Tommy that BG was killed by Dre.

Tommy realizes Dre is still alive and he needs to stop him from killing Ghost. He tells Elisa to go back to her aunt and tell her he didn’t harm her.

He later meets with Tariq and tells him he’s looking for Dre. Tommy realizes that Ghost didn’t kill Keisha or shut down the warehouse. Proctor is the one who betrayed him. But Tariq feels like Ghost really did betray all of them. He’s disappointed Tommy doesn’t want to kill Ghost anymore.

Tommy tells Tariq he doesn’t have all the details about Ghost. And he should be careful because he didn’t find out he didn’t have all the details about Teresi before he killed him. And he has to live with that regret every day.

He knows Dre is about to try to kill Ghost. They need to save Ghost and make a trap for Dre. But Tariq doesn’t want to help. He’s okay with Dre killing Ghost. In his opinion, Ghost should die.

Vincent reappears.

Before Tommy can drive off, Vincent and his crew show up. They have a huge gun fight and Tommy takes out all of Vincent’s men. Before he kills Vincent, Vincent tells Tommy that Tariq told him where to find Tommy. But Tommy doesn’t believe this.

Tommy makes it to Truth and sees Dre sitting in his car outside. He runs in and sees Ghost on the ground dying from a gunshot wound in his chest. Ghost says Dre didn’t shoot him.

Ghost dies in front of Tommy.

Tommy tells Ghost he’s not going to die, but Ghost knows otherwise. Tommy looks up and sees the killer. Stunned by this, he intends to kill them but Ghost tells Tommy to “let it go.” He cries as Ghost dies.

He runs off before the police enter the club.

Kate goes off.

When Tommy gets back to Kate’s place, she’s in tears and says she knows he killed Ghost. She accuses Tommy of always being jealous of Ghost but Tommy says he’s never wanted anything Ghost had. He didn’t kill Ghost either.

Kate is furious and she says she doesn’t need Tommy anymore because Ghost left her money. He can go to hell or to California for all she’s concerned. She hands Tommy an envelope from Ghost and tells him to leave.

Tommy clears out his apartment and gets in what appears to be his old car. Ghost seemingly had his car restored after filling it with bullet holes.

Seconds later, 2 Bit calls again. He says that it was Spanky who snitched and he just got sent home one day after talking to the feds. 2 Bit also killed Dre for Tommy. Tommy is thankful for the information and says they are good now.

Elisa and Tommy meet one last time.

Tommy rolls up on Spanky and kills him after Spanky confirms he snitched.

Later on, he pulls back up to Benny’s place. Elisa hands over the recording and the recording of Tommy killing the homeland security agent. She tells him she knows he killed Proctor. Tommy says it doesn’t matter but she can come find him to get revenge if she’s feeling some kind of way.

He gets back in his car to drive out of the city. The radio discusses Ghost’s murder and speculates Tate may replace him as the new running mate.

Tommy decides to play “Regulator” and drives off with a smile on his face.
