Ray calls Mickey back and asks him what he wants and what his end game is.
Its simple: $3 million and three passports for himself, Bunchy, and Maria.
Back at Sandys house, Mickey is having a lot of fun messing with Jay.
Apparently, Mickey is harboring a lot of resentment about his script being changed.
Hes completely unhinged, and it looks like he could kill Jay at any moment.
Ray doesnt want to do it, but he has to go to Winslow for the money.
It looks like Internal Affairs wants Mac to collect evidence of other corruption within the police ranks.
Then there are two different stories of violence.
The first sees Smitty panicking after an early morning phone call.
It turns out that Smitty has a bit of a past.
He took money from loan sharks and gave away drugs for free thinking thered be no consequences.
Finally, that brings us to Terry.
I guess this is Terrys life now.
Its some midlife crisis, thats for sure.

Alright, back to the main story of the episode.
Ray puts together the $3 million with the tracking machine and meets Bunchy in a bar.
If you take this money, you and him are the same to me, says Ray.
Bunchy does seem to regret having to do this, but he sees no other option.
He doesnt want to lose his daughter, and Mickeys the only one whos offered him a way out.
Hes in too deep now, and he has no choice but to go through with Mickeys plan.
While they get wasted, Bunchy executes the final stage of the plan.
The problem with all of this?
It means Bunchy cant keep an eye on Mickey and Sandy.
She sees the $3 million sitting on the table and decides to make a run for it.
You have to assume that this isnt going to end well.
Its a feeling that certainly cant last; no good feeling ever does onRay Donovan.
