Plot

Fuches' schemes finally catch up with him. The Taylor's hunt for Barry, and Barry plans to re-connect with old friends.

Summary

At the outskirts, Fuches tells Taylor's sister, Traci and her biker gang that Barry was supposed to install a hot tub for Taylor nearby and instructs them to confront Barry about it, giving them his address. Suddenly, one of the gang members pulls out a gun and shoots Fuches in the chest. The gang then leaves, leaving Fuches lying on the ground, bleeding.

Albert continues investigating with the police, refusing to believe that "The Raven" or Hank would be involved in Fernando's murder, deeming that a person with military background was involved, only to realize the profile of the killer matches Barry's description. He visits Sharon, the widow of Barry's military friend, Chris, to inquire about Barry's whereabouts. Albert is surprised when she tells him that Barry is now taking acting classes and she suggests they should meet. She calls Barry, telling him she is organizing a charity dinner for veterans and wants him to attend that night, which he accepts to do.

Despite cancelling her show, BanShe tells Sally that they want her to work on another project and she is hesitant to accept the offer.

NoHo Hank is depressed on finding out that his operation was raided by the cops and that Cristobal was straight and married the whole time and discusses his problems with a local beignet worker named Mitch. Mitch tells Hank to work with him instead, however, Hank makes up his mind to go to Bolivia and rescue Cristobal.

Tom Posorro informs Gene that Bob Jacobson, a powerful producer, wants him to lead his own streaming series, Gene Cousineau MasterClass. Gene will accept but only if Annie works on the project. Annie refuses to work with him, although she is moved when Gene offers to give her all his potential money. Back at the outskirts, a man finds Fuches and takes him to his house, where he is tended by his family. He is contacted by Jim (Robert Ray Wisdom), father of Janice Moss, who wants to meet with him to discuss new information. Enjoying his new life and having fallen in love with the man's daughter Anita, Fuches hangs up.

Sally meets with Morgan Dawn-Cherry, a BanShe executive. She offers Sally a place in the writer's room in the series that replaced Joplin on the homepage, as she feels Sally could improve its critical reception. Sally considers this a downgrade but Lindsay convinces her to accept the job, as she will earn a good reputation with the executives. At the house, Fuches talks with the man, who notes that Anita seems to improve his life, revealing he knows about Anita's feelings towards him and tells him he's a good man, although he tells him he must follow any "sign of God". Fuches then sees a newspaper depicting Barry and Gene and steals the man's car. He then calls Jim back, wanting to meet with him to discuss crucial evidence on Janice's murder.

Traci's gang break into Barry's house, finding some evidence of his whereabouts. They intercept him while he is driving to the dinner, exposing their intentions in front of him. Barry flees, hitting a biker but crashing his car. He then steals the motorbike but is recognized by the bikers. He then drives through the Interstate 710N and a chase ensues, with Barry managing to leave the freeway while the bikers crash into cars. Barry's bike runs out of gas just as Traci is nearby, forcing him to hide in a used car dealership. Traci arrives on top of the dealership and starts firing, until she is killed by the owner with a shotgun. As the police sirens are heard, Barry leaves the dealership.

Barry makes it to Sharon's house, and eats a beignet. He investigates the events and finds that the bikers were connected to Taylor. He also finds Fuches' fake contact card on the table, before seeing Sharon coldly staring at him. He soon falls unconscious shortly after realizing Sharon poisoned the beignet.
