Durham County

Mike Sweeney is back on track. His wife Audrey is home and expecting a baby, his daughter Sadie is about to graduate from the police academy and is secretly expecting a child of her own with boyfriend Ray Jr. and Ray Prager has vanished without a trace. Now the superintendent of the Durham Police precinct, Mike is on the task force investigating the gruesome murders of two young brothers.

Mike learns that Katya is still missing and her credit cards have gone unused for 5 days, and brings Ivan in for questioning. Ivan reveals Katya is having an affair and probably shacked up with her new boyfriend. Mike decides to keep things friendly with Ivan to gain more insight. Meanwhile, Ivan is slowly coming apart and confesses his crime to Miro, who is barely shaken by his sister's death.

Mike believes Miro is running money through Katya's company and is involved in a gang war with the Chinese. When he informs Eva of Miro's hand in the McHalphie murders, she divulges that Katya knew about his dealings and threatened to out him. The police take Miro's computer for a forensic audit. Miro learns he is a suspect in Katya's death and begins to wonder if Ivan is setting him up.

Ivan and Sadie are livid when they see Mike leave Eva's house after spending the night with her. Holding on by a thread, Mike throws himself into his work and takes Ivan up on his offer to deliver information about Miro to the cops. Still unsure who to trust, Mike unfreezes Miro's accounts and releases Eva's computer to Ivan.

Consumed by grief, Mike tries to lay blame on Ivan for Audrey's death, but the autopsy confirms he was not responsible. As Maddie continues to take the reins with baby Charlie by appointing Ivan as godfather, Sadie is riddled with anxiety over her own pregnancy and her father's inability to comfort the family as they grieve. Meanwhile, Ivan sets Miro up to take the fall for Katya's death.

After spending the night purging his feelings about Sadie's work on the force, Mike stumbles into the station and tells Sabina and Samuel of Ivan's drunken confession the night before.
