The sixth episode of "The Hunting Wives" reverts to 1999, where Margo catches a ride with a man named Dale. As he navigates his vehicle towards a secluded house, his unexpected touch on her knee shifts the ambiance dramatically. Just when tensions are at their peak, Kyle bursts onto the scene. Together, Margo and Kyle spring into action, pointing a gun at Dale, seizing his truck, and speeding off into the unknown. Desperate to make ends meet, they sell the stolen truck but their plight is complicated by Margo's unstable mother, who is promptly carted away by the police.
Cut to the present, where Kyle's demeanor is erratic and taut. He hastily throws on a pair of pants and addresses Sophie with unmasked sincerity, proposing a deal: in exchange for crucial information, he requires her to chauffeur him to a "friend's house." However, the tranquility is shattered by gunshots echoing through the air. As Kyle dashes away, clutching a sack brimming with cash, it becomes apparent that Sophie has unwittingly become his getaway driver.
Back at Kyle's abode, he confesses that the bag of money actually belongs to him—a hush payment meant to silence him. Kyle is well-informed about Sophie's past, revealing that on the night of Abby's demise, he narrowly escaped death due to a tainted batch of drugs. The physician in Alba further substantiates that Margo did indeed show up that fateful night.
Later that afternoon, after a compelling television interview, Margo receives a mysterious envelope. Inside, there are photographs of her and Brad, accompanied by a chilling message: "I see you." In a moment of vulnerability, Margo seeks refuge in Sophie, apologizing profusely for her past misdeeds and the frame-up. With tears streaming down her face, she sincerely pleads for a chance to rectify her mistakes. Instead of opting for the safety of the police station and truth, Margo and Sophie embark on an Amateur detective mission to uncover the real perpetrator behind Abby's murder.
Sophie makes her appearance at Starr's abode, where the veil of Abby's past begins to lift. Once, Starr and Abby shared an unbreakable bond, but their closeness shattered when Abby became entangled with Brad. Starr is visibly haunted by those bygone days, torn between sorrow and fury. Flynn speculates a potential link between the church and the murder mystery. Intriguingly, Abby's final phone call was to Pete, prompting Salazar to take matters into her own hands and delve deeper. It transpires that Pete is on a leave of absence, while Clint remains tight-lipped about the youth's background, casting further suspicion over the entire situation.
Margo turns her gaze upon her friends, suspicion gnawing at her. She insists that they all sign a non-disclosure agreement, determined to keep their secrets confined within their circle. Jill stands out as the lone holdout, her reluctance peaking when Margo demands that all photos featuring her be deleted as well. This demand proves too much for Jill, who storms out in protest.
Brad, too, is troubled by Jill's deceptive ways, particularly after learning about her conversation with Abby on the night she died. Worried about what secrets Jill's mother might be harboring, Brad seeks out Margo. The consensus seems to lean towards Jill discovering Abby's pregnancy and taking drastic measures to address it. Her evasive demeanor does little to dispel these suspicions.
Sophie ventures to Pete's residence next, where he reveals that Abby was far from innocent. He reveals her past abortion, claiming he tried to redeem her. This revelation casts a new light on their final conversation and Pete's subsequent outburst.
As Sophie departs, Pete's sinister charm ensnares Nina, and they embark on a trip to the fairground, their bond growing closer. Meanwhile, Salazar seizes the opportunity to rummage through Pete's trash in search of clues.
Unbeknownst to all, Pete spikes Nina's drink at the fairground and slips her into his car. When she spots Abby's sweater in the backseat, Nina's panic escalates, but her drugged state renders her helpless, and she drifts into unconsciousness.
