The episode unfolds in the glitz and glamour of a casino, where bride Becca (Olivia Hendrick), adorned in her wedding finery, and her bridesmaids engage in an array of daring challenges. Becca hesitates, visibly uncomfortable, when tasked with snapping a selfie in the men's restroom. Her friend, Elisa Richards, eggs her on with playful persuasion. Summoning her courage, Becca steps inside just as a man exits, leaving her bridesmaids to wait anxiously by the door.
Inside, Becca applies a coat of lipstick, the metallic clang of a stall door echoing eerily behind her. As she turns to investigate the noise, her eyes widen in horror upon sighting a hand dangling limply from one of the stalls. With trembling hands, she pushes open the door to reveal Rex Blackley (Derek Smith), lifelessly slumped on the cold tiles. A piercing scream escapes her lips, echoing through the casino's marble halls.
Elsewhere, Thony De La Rosa (Elodie Yung) is jolted awake by a nightmare, her heart pounding in her chest. She quickly composes herself before joining her family in the cozy warmth of the kitchen. Fiona (Martha Millan) offers her a steaming cup of coffee, while Chris (Sean Lew) reveals his plan to surprise Camila (Esmeralda Camargo) on her birthday by personally arriving. He enlists Jaz (Faith Bryant) to drop him off at the bus station, and Fiona gifts him a jar of her homemade sour sauce as a token for Camila. Jaz teases him about potentially moving in with her, and Fiona inquiries about his plans to return for his GED, to which Chris nods, mouth full of toast. Fiona tries to console Thony, urging her not to dwell on Rex's untimely demise.
In a separate scene, Jorge Sanchez (Santiago Cabrera) presents Chief Wovoka (Eugene Brave Rock) with the blueprints for his lithium mine, dedicating it to his late wife Vanessa. Wovoka, serene in his belief, assures Jorge that Vanessa resides peacefully in the spirit world. Jorge shares the heartbreaking tale of how her untimely death prevented him from fulfilling his promise to leave the cartel. He points out the desired location for the access road on his land, etched meticulously on the blueprint.
During a rideshare journey, Sonoma Spear (Carrie Lazar) catches a glimpse of a brochure advertising "The Cleaning Ladies." She informs Fiona about an upcoming large event, and Fiona confidently reassures her of their capability, boasting of their stellar 5-star Yelp rating. Sonoma requests their presence at 5 PM sharp.
At the hospital, a pregnant Patty (B.K. Cannon) groans in discomfort, complaining of a persistent headache. Thony checks her blood pressure, which reads an alarming 157/99. Dr. DuPont (Daniel Bonjour) inquires about any sudden weight gain and examines her legs for edema, to which Patty jests about it being her "factory setting." The doctor sternly reminds her that her vitals are no laughing matter, fearing preeclampsia. He 24-hour observation orders, with Thony soothing Patty by assuring her it's merely precautionary. After ordering blood work and exiting the room, Carlos (Miguel Lepe Jr.) wonders if the doctor is angry. Thony quips that it's just his "factory setting," but later confronts DuPont for his rudeness towards Patty. He criticizes her and Carlos's eating habits and orders Thony back to work. She mutters "cretin" under her breath, seeing things with frustration.
Enter Assistant District Attorney Joel Herman (Robert Cicchini), who introduces himself to Thony and shows her a photograph of the deceased Rex. She feigns ignorance, denying recognition. Later, in the cafeteria, Joel reveals that a bride stumbled upon Rex's body in a casino restroom. Thony admits to giving his wife $50,000 but insists she never knew him personally. Joel produces texts suggesting Rex was offered the same sum for a driving gig at Jorge's business on the night of the shooting. He recalls her collaboration with the FBI to bring down Ramona Sanchez and speculates that the cartel might have coerced her into this act. Thony vehemently claims that both the FBI and the cartel have threatened her, vowing never to be manipulated again. Joel questions why she continues to allow the cartel to exploit her, his eyes probing for answers.
JD Harris, portrayed by Ryan Sands, censures Fiona for her tardiness to Jaz’s FAFSA meeting, kindly extending an invitation to move in and lend a hand. She respectfully declines, citing her recent acquisition of a prominent new client. Asserting her desire to be by his side, she expresses the need to prove her self-sufficiency first. He reassuringly responds that everyone acknowledges her immense capability.
Meanwhile, at the San Bernardino Rest Stop, Chris engages in a phone conversation with Camila, omitting any mention of an impending visit. He subsequently boards the bus, leaving unspoken sentiments behind. Elsewhere, Fiona arrives to collect her weekly earnings, only to find Elwood (Michael Vincent Berry) withholding $800 from her $1,700 total, leaving her visibly agitated. Elwood explains the intricacies of his task—locating, copying, and manipulating individuals' driver’s licenses using Photoshop. Demanding her full earnings, Fiona faces a veiled threat from Elwood to rent out Blanche’s driver’s license to someone else. In frustration, she grabs his tacos and storms out.
At West Valley Community Hospital, Patty vents about DuPont’s perceived judgment, though he proves correct in his assessment. Her overeating might have endangered her unborn child. Thony offers reassurance, stating that the baby is fine and the blame doesn't lie with Patty. Curious, Patty inquires if Thony has ever faced a similar ordeal, to which she replies negatively but empathizes with her guilt. Suddenly, Patty suffers a seizure. DuPont springs into action, rendering aid swiftly. Once Patty stabilizes, DuPont credits luck for his timely intervention, but she counters by sharing her knowledge of Luca De La Rosa’s seizures stemming from CNS infections. With compassion, he tasks her with administering magnesium sulfate.
Elsewhere, Jorge watches a news bulletin announcing the discovery of Rex’s body in a casino bathroom. El Don (Danny Pardo) reveals that Neto’s soldiers strategically placed the body to be found, yet Jorge justifies Neto’s demise due to his betrayal of Sin Cara. El Don warns of dire consequences if the police trace Rex’s body back to them. Jorge then mentions Wovoka’s consent to build an access road through Paiute land, emphasizing that the mining commissioner’s approval is crucial for the lithium mine’s opening. El Don remarks on divine providence watching over the project, prompting Jorge to urge him to exert pressure on their contacts within the DA’s office for timely updates on the investigation.
At Sonoma’s residence, the Cleaning Ladies are at work when Sonoma accuses Fiona of stealing $1.17. Fiona magnanimously offers to complete the job without charge, but Sonoma threatens a negative Yelp review and orders her departure. However, Samentha (Jenelle Baptiste) steps in, returning the missing money, explaining she had forgotten to put it back on the dryer. Fiona forgives her and subtly captures a photo of Sonoma’s driver’s license before leaving.
In a heart-wrenching scenario, Chris catches Camila kissing another man (Ben Darby), watching helplessly as they depart together. Later, Thony informs Fiona that the DA intends for her to frame Jorge for Rex’s murder, unaware that Fiona was the one who, in her view, mercifully ended Rex’s suffering.
Back at the hospital, DuPont recommends an emergency C-section for Patty, asking Carlos to prioritize between Patty’s life and their unborn child. Carlos fears Patty’s eternal resentment but Thony assures him of her understanding of his love. Carlos, with tears in his eyes, beseeches Thony to save his wife.
Fiona dials Chris's number, and he admits with a tone of astonishment in his voice. Chris mentions the possibility that he might have to extend his stay for another night. Elsewhere, DuPont informs Thony that Patty and the baby have arrived safely. He extends an invitation for a drink after their shift, which Thony eagerly accepts.
Moments later, Joel Herman arrives at Thony's location and inquiries about Rex Blackley. Joel unveils a startling revelation: Rex was injected with a deadly chemical cocktail. He finds it intriguing that she is present where the drugs were discovered. Joel insists on inspecting her inventory, presenting her with a warrant as proof of his authority.
Meanwhile, a detective named Larry S. White II keeps a close watch on Thony from his vehicle, muttering under his breath that she's in deep. El Don informs him that Neto's men have been dealt with decisively. Thony seeks to confront Jorge, who drops a bombshell: the DA possesses photographs of her money drop, and Rex's phone records link him to that very location. Thony warns Jorge that the authorities are currently searching the hospital. She declares her intention to fabricate a story if called to testify.
Jorge confronts Thony, his voice rising in frustration. He accuses her of failing to report a violent crime and questions whether Rex asked her to end his life and why she obeyed his request. He forces her to repeat the oath she took as a professional. Jorge warns her that everyone thinks they can lie in court until they actually try.
As Thony exits, El Don tells Jorge that their entire project could be jeopardized if the body is traced back to them. He suggests eliminating the cleaning lady, but Jorge reminds him she's a doctor with a son. Cowboy strikes up a conversation with Thony, asking her why surgeons wear green. He explains that it makes blood more visible.
Thony receives a call from Joel, who warns her that her life is in immediate danger and advises her not to enter any vehicles. Joel sends her a graphic image to illustrate how the cartel treats its associates—a picture of Dr. Podesky, lifeless and dead. In the elevator, Jorge confronts Thony once again, stating that either he or she will face arrest for murder. He proposes that she stay at a safe house in Albuquerque until the storm passes. Thony begs them not to separate her from her son, her voice filled with desperation.
She screamed, demanding that Jorge marry her so they could avoid testifying against each other in court. The detective reported to his team that the targets were on the move. When the vehicle was intercepted, however, Jorge and Thony were nowhere to be found. Instead, Thony was busy arranging their trip to the marriage registry office. Upon arrival, Jorge and Thony found themselves confronted by a long queue. Jorge remarked that even after obtaining the marriage license, they still needed to visit the church. Fiona suddenly appeared, questioning what Thony was thinking, as this would only drag her deeper into the cartel's web. When they finally caught up with Jorge, he informed them that the police had issued warrants for their arrest. Fiona offered them $900 to expedite their way through the lengthy queue. She also mentioned bringing a wedding dress. Meanwhile, Joel learned that Thony and Jorge had just appeared in the marriage registration database. His assistant, Sabrina Saleha, inquired whether they should dispatch police officers to the scene. Jorge believed they should already be at the church by now. He stated that a marriage was only legitimate after signing the certificate at the church. At that moment, an Elvis impersonator (Daniel Durston) began hosting the wedding ceremony for Jorge and Thony. Elvis tried to coerce them into kissing before signing the certificate. To expedite the process, Thony kissed Jorge. By the time the police arrived, the marriage certificate had already been signed. Jorge and Thony were arrested and separated into different patrol cars. In the interrogation room, Joel told Thony that he sensed she might have been forced into the marriage and offered to assist her. Thony, however, insisted that she had proposed, as she deeply loved Jorge. Shortly afterward, Jorge walked in as Thony's lawyer. Joel vowed to uncover who had killed Rex and warned them that their marriage could constitute obstruction of justice. Elsewhere, Chris was hanging out with friends. Drawn by his own music, he began to dance between speeding vehicles. Thony asked Jorge if they truly intended to take her to a safe house. Jorge remained silent.
