As Frank is about to enter the courtroom to defend Bogdan's decoy Martin Kodres, Brian calls and tells him to come see him at once, or he will skip town. Frank hurries to his hotel, where Brian tells him he has Bogdan's phone and that it contains evidence linking an up-coming drug deal directly to Waldman. Brian is the only one capable of deciphering the codes, and Frank tries to convince him to witness. Brian refuses, and Frank has to rush back to the courthouse. During recess, Frank overhears Waldman order a hit on Brian, and he calls Sara.

Frank is secretly preparing his old colleague Fredrika for Daniella Ayala's appeal. While Frank grows optimistic, Waldman grows nervous, and he orders a hit on Ayala, hoping to get her before she gets out. Meanwhile, Sara meets with one of their father's old colleagues and uncovers the identity of a woman in a photo, standing next to her father.
