== Synopsis ==
Mike is desperate to confirm the source of a spate of bombings; he extends an unlikely olive branch.
== Plot ==
Kingstown is under lockdown following the police station bombings, with officers stopping and checking cars. Ian (Hugh Dillon) beats a potential informant for information, while Mike (Jeremy Renner) and Kyle (Taylor Handley) learn that two unexploded bombs provided the name John York. At a gas station, the police track down York and kill him, despite Mike wanting him alive for interrogation.
Mike believes Merle (Richard Brake), the Aryan Brotherhood's new leader, is behind the bombings and demands answers. After meeting with Kareem (Michael Beach), Mike confronts Merle, who shifts blame to his dead predecessor, Gunner. Mike demands a name within six hours.
Mike, Ian, Kyle, and Robert (Hamish Allan-Headley) pursue Macon (Keir O'Donnell), a scared drug addict involved in the bombings. With the help of his friend Stamper (Barrett Carnahan), Macon tries to flee but crashes a stolen car. Kyle impresses Robert by convincing Stamper to cooperate, hinting at his future on the SWAT team.
Bunny (Tobi Bamfeta) and his crew catch Macon after the crash and hand him over to Mike. On a rooftop, Mike interrogates Macon, who refuses to name Merle, boasting about his loyalty to the Aryan Brotherhood. When Macon taunts Mike about his past and the explosion at Mariam's funeral, Mike snaps and pushes him off the roof, killing him.
Mike later meets with Merle, hinting at their shared history and the need for future cooperation. He lies, saying the Crips killed Macon. Merle acknowledges the Aryan Brotherhood’s violent role in prison and agrees to work with Mike moving forward.
Meanwhile, at Anna Fletcher's (Paula Malcomson) arraignment, she admits to killing her son’s murderer and pleads guilty. Mike asks Evelyn (Necar Zadegan) to intervene, insisting Anna isn't a murderer, but Evelyn is too busy.
The episode ends with Konstantin (Yorick van Wageningen) hosting a party on his boat. Merle calls him, promising that their new alliance will lead to great things.
