Tommy is blamed for the recent attack on Vic.

Vic is replaying Gloria’s death in his mind while he’s being patched up at the hospital. Walter says he’s not happy Gloria died. But he is happy that Vic survived. Vic fully believes the Serbs were behind the shooting. And Walter says they are working with Tommy. In fact, Tommy set all of this up and a sign was him letting Mirkovic get away. So it is time to get even.

D-Mac is counting cash for Tommy. He’s still unaware Tommy is his uncle. After counting everything, the business is already up over 18 percent from the previous day. Tommy tells D-Mac he’s the smartest kid he’s ever met. And even though all he knows is the street life, he can do much better. 

JP tells his father Herman that his grandmother’s death has made him reflect. He did call Kate to tell her who he was and what happened. She didn’t have much to say. But the whole situation has made him want to find his son Darnell and be a part of his life.

Claudia has doubts but Walter moves forward. 

Walter and Vic give Claudia a recap. She’s not convinced that Tommy hooked up with the Serbs to set up Vic and Gloria. But Walter tells her she needs to hurry up and pick a side. She’s either with them or against them. Interestingly enough, Walter seemingly gets Claudia on their side when he promises to let her in the war room this time. And she is also told to make sure Vic doesn’t try to get even with Tommy. Walter plans to handle Tommy himself. 

Walter later tells Paulie that they need to make another move on the Serbs and Tommy. Paulie says he doubts Tommy had anything to do with this. If he wanted Vic dead, he would have done that already. However, Walter isn’t hearing this. And he tells Paulie to call the “Four Horsemen” so they will have the manpower needed.

After the conversation with Herman, JP tries to call Kate, again. However, the phone number has been disconnected.

Diamond wants to make things right with Seamus.

D-Mac makes up with his friend Marshall after he’s also been betrayed by CBI. They have a plan to get revenge and it starts with Cousin Buddy.

When JP tells Tommy he called Kate to tell her about their grandmother Miriam, Tommy freaks out. 

The officer who has been blackmailing Seamus says he’s going to need $50,000 more.

While Jenard is talking about his plans to overthrow Diamond, he has no idea that Diamond was listening in. 

Seamus pulls a gun out on Diamond and is led to the CBI stash. After he blames Diamond for being put in the position to be blackmailed by a white cop, Diamond hands over $150,000 even though Seamus only demanded $100,000.

D-Mac and Marshall make their move.

Tommy finds Diamond at his favorite restaurant and tells him the Flynn family is blaming the recent shooting on him and the Serbs. They just brought in a few “heavy hitters” from Dublin. So he needs more manpower from Diamond. However, Diamond refuses to help out. And he’s also refusing to go back to prison for anyone.

After learning that he’s being pursued by the Flynn family, Tommy meets with the Serbs for some manpower. They agree to help after he also confirms that the Flynn family is coming for them as well. Plus, the shooter that killed Gloria is identified. Tommy takes him out as part of the deal.

Marshall and D-Mac meet with Cousin Buddy. They say they are the true Dahlia connect and Cousin Buddy will no longer have to deal with CBI. Buddy tells them to bring more drugs or set up a meeting with their connect to prove they are serious. If not, he’s killing them both.

D-Mac is shot.

Unfortunately, Claudia sees Tommy talking to the Serbs. And she takes this as confirmation that he did work with them to try to take out Vic.

Jenard figures out that D-Mac and Marshall got the Dahlia from Tommy. So they will all have to be dealt with.

D-Mac tells Tommy about the deal he has in the works with Cousin Buddy. Tommy says this wasn’t a good idea and it’s not safe. And Tommy wants to keep him safe because he’s Tommy’s nephew. D-Mac is in shock and he had no idea JP and Tommy are brothers. A car pulls up and people inside start shooting. D-Mac is shot and Tommy rushes him to the hospital. There JP meets Tommy and finds out the truth. 

The Flynn family meets with the Four Horsemen. Walter tells them that Claudia will be allowed in the war room. And she will be strategizing, something that has always been against tradition. And the plan is to kill all the Serbs and Tommy.
