Stan gets out of the car and walks around to the passenger side. He tells Ahmed to "get out" and they walk in front of the car.
Back at the reception site Holder asks Mitch about Stan's interaction with Ahmed. She gets irritated when he references Stan's "past." A phone rings on the tables (probably Ahmed's) and we see Royce put it into his pocket. Holder walks over to Royce and says that if he doesn't tell him where Stan took Ahmed he could be facing jail time himself.
Amber tells Linden some positive things about Ahmed, adding "please don't let that man hurt my husband."
Standing in a pouring rain San tells Ahmed what it's like to be the father of a girl. Ahmed turns to him and swears he didn't hurt Rosie: "This is all some terrible misunderstanding. I'm going to be a father." Stan walks back to his car and gets inside. His phone rings.
Amber admits that the night of the dance she drove to the school. She was paranoid about her husband being surrounded by 17-year old girls with "perfect bodies" and sat in the parking lot. She tells Linden she had a miscarriage the previous year and is not supposed to be on her feet and isn't allowed to lift anything. When Linden assures her that Ahmed couldn't have let Rosie into the home that night Amber suggests a man named Muhammad that Ahmed had recently been studying the Quran with. He has a key to their apartment. Linden spots a Quran on the table from with the address of a Seattle mosque (Green Lake) inside. A furious Ahmed walks inside and demands that Linden leave
Outside Linden calls Holder, who says that Stan has returned alone. He points out that Linden has a plane to catch.
Linden and Jack arrive at the airport and sprint to the counter. They have missed their flight and Jack reminds Linden she owes him $50 million.
In bed Mitch asks Stan if the police think Ahmed did it. He ignores the question and confesses he feels as if he failed as a father by not keeping Rosie safe. Mitch comforts him as one of their sons climbs into bed with them after having a nightmare.
Following the debate fiasco Jamie tells Richmond he must distance himself from Ahmed. Richmond resists, saying he put pressure on the superintendent to have Ahmed removed from the All Stars program without being charged with anything. Jamie thinks that by protecting Ahmed Richmond may be costing himself the chance to win the election and help many more people. After Jamie leaves Gwen promises Richmond that she supports his decision. They begin to have sex and look over at the mayor's newest TV spot that rips Richmond for supporting Ahmed.
Mitch's parents come to visit. They are worried about the boys and are critical of Terry for not doing enough to help. Ahmed comes up and Mitch's mother says she isn't fond of the fact that so much "mixing" happens in public school.
Jamie and Gwen don't know where their candidate is. Jamie says Drexler is unhappy he's donated to a campaign that doesn't seem to be trying to win. Jaime and Gwen don't seem to be getting along. Gwen noticed an open envelope addressed to Richmond from a Washington women's prison.
Linden tells Regi that Rick isn't taking her calls. Regi's worried about Jack. She says she's done with being a cop and just wants to finish the case. Regi points out that she's acting the same way she did during another case during which time she nearly lost custody of Jack.
Linden drops Jack off at a paintball outing with some friends. She sits in the car and calls Holder. He tells her they were unable to get a warrant for the Ahmeds' apartment because of a witness issue. Oakes is mad that Ahmed was leaked as a suspect. Linden watches Jack have a tough time with the paintball experience and hops out to give him a quick tutorial about aiming.
Linden goes into the office. Oakes says the neighbor who said he witnessed the body being moved has a history of mental illness. Linden says Amber could not have carried a body and tells Oakes about Muhammad. She also tells him about Stan's past. Holder (who had no idea Linden missed her flight) walks in.
Richmond visits the home of his deceased wife's mother. They talk about the fact the drunk driver who killed her daughter is about to be up for parole. He's not sure if he'll attend the hearing. Richmond is struggling to forgive the woman and she wonders if, based on his campaign, perhaps he also unable to forgive himself.
Mitch's mother answer the phone when yet another member of the media calls about Ahmed. Mitch says the police have told them nothing about Ahmed. Her mother makes a crack about Stan.
Stan takes the boys out to fly a kite. They want to know how Rosie died. Stan tells them a bad man killed her. They ask if the bad man will kill them and he promises them he won't let anything happen.
Mitch asks Royce about his information regarding Ahmed. Royce says his friend told him Ahmed took Rosie to a special room at the school. He tells her about the offer he made to Stan regarding "taking care of" Ahmed.
In the car Holder ribs Linden about Rick and how he must feel about being stood up so many times. He thinks she doesn't really want to get on the plane.
Linden and Holder visit the Green Lake mosque. They remove their shoes and are greeted by an Imam named Gelabi. He says Ahmed is new to the mosque. Gelabi is irritated that a girls from his community went missing a week ago and there doesn't seem to be anything being done. He doesn't give them much help, saying there are about 40 men named Muhammad who worship at the mosque. On their way out Linden sees that someone has placed an address in her shoe.
Gwen and Jamie tells them the mayor has called an emergency meeting of the city council to freeze funds to Seattle All Stars. Jamie says the way to save the program is to ask for Ahmed's resignation. Instead Richmond addresses the council and tells them that the kids in the program do not deserve the punishment they are about to levy.
Mitch rebuffs Stan's attempt at intimacy. On her way out he door she turns and says "I'm sorry. I'm doing the best I can."
Linden and Holder follow-up on the address they were given at the mosque. Linden leaves Rick yet another voicemail while looking for the entrance. She says she's sorry and wants to talk to him so she can schedule another flight. They spot the door in a dark alley. Linden references probable cause before Holder invents hearing something and kicks in the door. They are walking into the back entrance of what appears to be a old butcher shop of some sort. They come upon another locked door and Holder manages to break the padlock. They walk inside a pitch-black room and stare intently at something.
We see Mitch watching the Ahmeds from the street. The council approves revoking the All Stars' funding as the mayor watches with a smile.
As Linden and Holder explore the room we spot someone with an assault rifle. All of a sudden the room is flooded with FBI agents who force the cops to the ground.
