Jet tells Teddy that it will take a week to wire the place and that they want hidden cameras. Teddy tells Jet that he already has them installed and that he also has a hidden casino room. Later, before the operation started, Teddy arrived late and claimed that he wants to be prepared in case something bad happened and brought a gun. Jet and Reyes don't let Teddy keep the gun. Jet also finds Teddy's passport in his bag and Teddy thinks that they don't know who they are dealing with. Bell then watches through the cameras as Reyes greets Seamus into the bar.

Murphy warns Teddy and becomes suspicious that he might be up to something. Teddy then walks away nervous. Later, when the fight begins at Teddy's bar, Teddy shows up and says that he has the money before a man enters and starts shooting at Murphy. (OC: "Punch Drunk")

After Jet gets found and Seamus gets shot by Stabler, Thurman meets Bell at the hospital to tell her that Teddy has escaped and orders Stabler to find Teddy. During Teddy's escape, Teddy manages to get a guy to help him before removing his ankle bracelet and calling someone.
