Episode 5 of "Two Weeks to Live" kicks off with a bombshell revelation from Jay, who confesses to the group that he cunningly planted the tracker within a shipment destined for one of his unsuspecting clients. This misstep leads the nefarious duo of corrupt cops astray, straight to the wrong doorstep.
As Jay sits, head bowed in contrition, he acknowledges his deceit and offers a heartfelt apology to the assembled group. Tina, her fury palpable, stands poised, fingers twitching dangerously close to her weapon, ready to end it all for Jay's betrayal. But fate intervenes in the form of a phone call—or so it seems. It's not Beth's soothing voice on the line, but Brooks's sinister tones, the consequences of Jay's greed finally catching up to him.
Tina seizes the phone, her resolve hardening, and assumes control of the precarious situation. With a steely determination, she agrees to a rendezvous with Brooks, the exchange of money looming large. Clicking off the call, she leaves no room for hesitation.
In the tense silence of the diner's parking lot, Jay, driven by desperation, takes a leap of faith and initiates a FaceTime call with Beth, his heart on his sleeve as he proposes marriage. Yet, Beth hesitates, her doubts mirrored in her uncertain gaze. Jay's heart sinks as he hangs up, defeated. In that moment, Nicky emerges from the shadows, offering a comforting embrace that speaks volumes.
Meanwhile, Kim, keenly aware of Brooks's approach, sets out with the bulging bag of cash, a target on her back. Faced with the corrupt officers, Kim prepares to relinquish the bag, her fate hanging in the balance. But Tina, sensing the imminent danger her daughter faces, springs into action, sweeping Kim into the car and speeding away, narrowly escaping what could have been a deadly encounter.
An exhilarating chase unfolds, ultimately bringing Brooks and Thompson to a grinding halt. Tina, momentarily safe from the fray, makes a swift decision to steer off the beaten path and set up camp in the wilderness. Under the starlit sky, profound revelations surface as Jay imparts uplifting words, stemming from an unexpected quarter – none other than Tina herself. Their conversation intertwines with a secret pact forged between Brooks and Thompson, plotting to undermine their ruthless boss, Terri, and divide the spoils evenly between them.
Elsewhere, Kim's heart opens wide as she leans in for a kiss with Nicky, but the tenderness is shattered when she discovers Nicky's intrusion into her personal space – a perusal of her diary. The betrayal cuts deep, and Kim, her trust shattered, turns on her heel and strides away. Little does she know, as she rushes towards their destination, Brooks and Thompson have cunningly planted a tracker on her car, their eyes fixed on her every move.
