## Plot Summary

Jane looks through papers when she is approached by Jasper, who knows that she is still seeing Nick. Martin walks in and says that he told the board Jasper would be hosting the company Christmas party since Jane would be joining him in Oslo. Jasper leaves and Martin tells Jane to relax, since she needed to take care of herself. He hands her a drink as he takes one as well, asking how her hand is. She says that it is better and says that she was so clumsy. Martin asks if Nick had given her the idea to ruin her career, saying that nobody would hurt her anymore because she belongs with him.

In the present, Jane visits Quellcorp, where she sees the man that was at her house. She walks in a room and sees Jasper waiting for her. He tells her that she looks good, while she says that he looks like their father, which he does not like. They reminisce about the past and Jane asks where her daughter is. Jasper says that he does not know why she left, but thinks it is because of how little Jane has told her, not even having seen her play. Jane says that those are the rules of witness protection and Jasper says that now that their father is dead, he was in charge now. Jane threatens to ruin his political career with one phone call, but Jasper tells her not to try it so Jane says that she is trying to find her daughter. Jasper says that she might be trying to find Nick, but Jasper says that his security is at his disposal at any time. She sarcastically says that he really redeemed their family and leaves.

Charlie is called by Jane; he picks up and is told that she needs help. She tells him that Andy is missing, so he tells her to call the FBI, since that was what they did. Jane asks if the Marshal assigned to her daughter could still be in contact with her, but he says he does not know and says that they are done since it is not a good time. However, Jane begs him to help her out.

Andy walks into Michael's hotel room, finding the suitcase. She opens Michael's laptop, but hears noise coming from outside. A group of people walk into the room and take the suitcase. After that, Andy leaves the room and follows the group, chasing after them with Michael's van.

Jane visits her family's columbarium. She tries calling Andy once again and leaves her a message saying that she is in San Francisco and looking for her. She tells her that she has lost many people and does not want to lose her as well, asking for her to call her back.

In the past, Jane cries as Andrew approaches her at Martin's funeral. Jasper and Nick talk while Jane realizes Andrew is high. She says she did not know what Grace was going to do and asks Nick what his conversation with Jasper was about. Andrew says that Jasper is worried that the Army of the Changing World would go for him next. However, Nick says that the FBI was alert after everything that had happened. Jane tells Nick that they do not need money, but he says that it is not about the money, but people knowing what they stand for, which Andrew agrees with. Jane tells him that he would get caught but he says that he was just getting started.

Nick puts a mask on, walking towards a protest which supported Reagan and the fight against AIDS, joining them. He grabs a suitcase full of money and throws a smoke bomb, which alerts an FBI agent. They follow him, but are not able to find him thanks to his mask.

At a convenience store's parking lot, Andy makes her way to the woman who had taken her bag, but walks back to her car after putting a large nail on the floor to pop one of their tires. The man who was with the woman walks back and they get ready to leave as the tire pops. Andy follows them.

Jane gets a text from Charlie telling her where Michael was staying. She walks into his hotel room and finds a note written down. She calls Charlie, telling him that he was right. He tells her that Michael was supposed to be on a flight to Atlanta, but never showed up and did not log in some evidence after having read her WITSEC report, which he was not authorized to do. After her call, Jane looks up Eli Wexler's address.

Andy follows the people who took her suitcase, who were now stopped due to their flat tire. Police officers stop and ask if they needed some help, also asking if the man had run into some trouble after seeing the marks on his face. Andy gets into the trunk while the couple was distracted.

Jane remembers when Nick introduced her to Eli and taught her how to use a gun before getting out of her car and greeting him in the present. He does not recognize her, but allows her to go in his home when she introduces herself. She says she is sorry about Clara, but Eli says that she had never sent a note and wants to know what she is doing there. Jane says that she is looking for Andy and mentions that maybe Andy should have stayed with them. Eli says that if she wants somebody to let her off the hook, he could not help her.

Jane leaves his house and gets a call from Charlie, who says he is headed to the airport because Michael was in critical condition at San Francisco general and a woman matching Andy's description was there when paramedics showed up. Jane thanks him and gets in her car.

In the past, Jane makes it to an abandoned train station, where she meets with a man who takes her to Nick. She tells the group which included Andrew that she brought as much food as she could and assures Paula that she made sure she was not followed. Paula says that she did not want to kill anyone, but Nick says that everybody should settle down.

Jane tells Nick that maybe they should make it all stop, saying good daughter was unstable to the police, but Nick says that only she and Nick would be fine. Nick says that they would let Maple-crofts go the next day as Jane walks into the room where she is being kept. Jane gives her water as john and Quarter look and see that they were followed by cops. Shooting starts and Maplecroft wields a weapon, which she stabs through Nick's left hand. After that, Nick slits her throat using the knife in his hand. Paula tells them that Quarter had been shot as she sees that Maplecroft was now dead. Nick removes the object from his hand and tells Jane to get moving. The group moves as the FBI chases after them and in the end, they manage to make it out of there.

In the trunk, Andy's phone starts vibrating and the car stops. The couple tells another man that they had car trouble, but the Marshal that was following them was out of the way. Andy gets out of the trunk with the suitcase and is shocked when the man shoots the couple. She gets under the car as the man opens the trunk and closes it, calling and telling someone else that the suitcase was not there. When the man leaves, Andy gets out from under the car.

Andy is called on her cell phone. She walks into a restaurant and sees Jane there. Jane walks up to her and they hug. Andy says that she is okay, but Jane says that she does not look it. Andy wonders how she had gotten Michael's number to which Jane replies that Charlie had given it to him. Andy asks Jane about everything she had now learned and Jane admits everything is true. Andy wonders if Nick is her father and Jane says that he is, also admitting she was part of Nick's group because she did everything he wanted until he killed Martin. She also says that she never told Andy because she was scared of Nick showing up. She tells Andy that as long as she is alive, she can testify against him and kept the money from Maplecroft's ransom because she figured that if Nick found them, they would need it. Andy wonders why Jasper wanted it and says that somebody had tried to kill her in order to get it, which shocks Jane. Andy says that she would be calling the FBI, but Jane says that Nick is out there and tells her to disappear. However, Andy says that there had been some kind of leak with the Marshals because everywhere they went, they had been able to be found. Jane tells her to leave, but Andy says that she would not let it go, so Jane accepts and says that they would go to the nearest police station and call the FBI. Jane tells Andy that she would go to the restroom and asks Andy to pay. However, Andy goes to the bathroom and sees that her mother was not there and was already leaving. Andy reaches her and stands in front of her car, so Jane tells her that she needs to go and leaves her at the diner.
