## Plot

Flashback to Dante in Mexico, October of 2005. His father, Mazo takes him away from his friends for a trip to Boyle Heights, which is a neighborhood in Los Angeles. He tells him that the time for games is over. Juan Diego feels that Mazo is treating Dante harshly, so he takes him out trick or treating. When he comes back with candy, Mazo takes one of the pieces that Dante was eating and gives it to the dog, saying, "Never give away something you love".

Back in the present, Ben is examining the gun that Mazo gave him and he writes the serial number on the business card that Garrett left him. He then heads up to the vineyard where he encounters Mazo and tells him that he needs to speak with Juan Diego about going to San Diego.

Ben asks Juan Diego for permission to take Frank’s body back to San Diego with him to give Katie and Jill closure. Juan Diego refuses, but he does give Ben permission to go back and see his family. As Ben is leaving, he is introduced to the Zamora family – including Silvia, who is a cousin.

In San Diego, Jill is frantic with worry and Ben tries to console her even though he knows what has become of Frank.

Homeland Security agent Holly Vincent is approached be a senior agent who demands to know why she doesn't know who was behind the operation that ended with two dead ICE agents and the escape of a senior member of the Cartel that she is investigating. There is an implied threat that her job is on the line unless she can find out how it happened.

Ben visits Javi's wife and learns that she had been told that the cabin was nearly finished and that Javi had been taking lots of cement with him when he went down to work on it. Ben begins to suspect that Javi may have been involved in more than simply building a cabin.

Later that night, Ben goes back to Valerie's house and sneaks into the garage to gather more information. He finds some notes that lead him to an old warehouse. Unknown to Ben his truck has a tracker on it and he is being followed by Sultan who is monitoring his activities.

In the warehouse yard, Ben finds a tunnel opening inside an old school bus. He heads down and follows the passageway to a steel door that he cannot open. However, he does find a plastic bag with someone's head in it. As he crawls back up into the bus, he is surprised by Sultan who takes him back down into the tunnel where they break down the steel door.

Waiting on the other side of the door is Dante, who demands to know what Ben is doing. At gunpoint, Ben tells them about Mazo and his agreement with Javi about the guns. Sultan and Dante don't believe him but they let him go and Dante tells Sultan that he is responsible for making sure Ben gets the guns to Mazo.

Ben returns to the CBP station to return some equipment that was found at Javi's house, but instead, he is taken into custody by Homeland Security agents.

Meantime, Dante tells Mazo that he knows about the guns and demands that his father tell Juan Diego about them. Mazo refuses, but Dante tells him that if Mazo doesn't tell Juan Diego, he will.

Now in handcuffs, Ben is taken into a classroom where he is questioned by Holly. She lays out all the evidence that they have about Ben's involvement in recent events. Seeing no other option, Ben offers himself up as an informant so that he can help bring down the Zamora Cartel.
