If I didnt own the place, Id sue, she quips when Ray shows up.
She just wants to know who was sent to intimidate her.
Ray says hell take care of it, and he leaves Lena in charge of Winslow.
Just as the mayor is about to get all self-righteous, Ray punches him in the throat.
A Girl Named Maria feels like the most significant episode of the season sincethe premiere.
One of those storylines is Mickey, Bunchy, and Marias life on the run.
Decked out in their fake priest outfits, they get to work.
Things go south quickly though, as a passenger pulls out a gun and points it at Mickey.
The three of them all threaten to shoot each other before Bunchy convinces Mickey to leave everything behind.
He doesnt want to kill anybody, and somehow he manages to talk Mickey down.
This one goes without a hitch, and the two make off with a bag full of cash.
The thing is, this isnt a win for Bunchy without Maria.
When Bunchy shows up later, reveling in his moment, every good feeling vanishes.
Theres no compromise to be had; Bunchy is broken, and Teresa says she never really loved him.
The kicker though is Teresa leaving with Maria, and theres nothing Bunchy can do about it.
Things arent going so well.
With that in mind, Mac lies to Ray.
Ray calls in a favor, asking him to get NYPD security camera footage from outside Winslows building.
Mac calls him back and says that unfortunately, the cameras out of order.
So what exactly is going on?
Well, when Ray confronts Mac about the lie, Mac freaks out.
The question is, how far will the mayor go to stay in power?
How many lines is he willing to cross?
One things for sure; this feud isnt coming to an end any time soon.
Learning that the mayor controls the cops doesnt deter Winslow.
So, well go after the cops, she says.
Ray seems hesitant, but hes all in with Winslow and Novak at this point.
That might not be in his best interest though.
Rays pretty good at getting out of jams, but this is a big one.
