Back at the police station
Evan: Who are you?
Norm: I'm a lawyer, Norm Donahue.
Evan: But I didn't call any lawyer.
Norm: I know, but I have my reasons for being here.
Evan: Did you say your name was Donahue?
Norm: Yep.
Evan: You wouldn't happen to be related to--
Norm: Cody is my brother, the one you framed.
Evan: Then why do you want to help me?
Norm: To be clear, I am not doing any of this for your benefit.
I'm trying to get information on who tried to kill my brother.
Evan: I'm going to say this up front, I didn't have anything to do
with what happened to your brother. I admit that I bought that gun in his name, but that was it.
Norm: With the charges you're facing, rubber checks and money laundering, I'm guessing you will get some serious time.
Evan: I figured that.
Norm: But, if you tell me everything you know about B.P. Charles, I can try and arrange a plea deal.
Evan: What's there to know, he's dead.
Norm: Let's not pretend.
Norm pulls the photographs of B.P. out and puts them on the table.
Norm: You can't tell me that's not B.P. Charles.
Evan: What if it is?
Norm: Now is not the time to play games. You can either tell me what you know or risk spending a very long time in prison.

Lynette is at the CoffeeRoom when Greg comes in and approaches her.
Greg: We need to talk.
Lynette: I got few minutes before I have to leave, so sure.
Greg: It's about what happened last night.
Lynette: You've been thinking about it?
Greg: Yeah, I didn't get any sleep at all. When we kissed it felt so right, but at the same time I knew it was so wrong.
Lynette: Me too.
Greg: I'm starting to think I shouldn't counsel you anymore. I mean, as I doctor I'm obligated not to get involved with a patient.
Lynette: The kiss was just an impulse.
Greg: I think we both felt something. Besides, it's not just the kiss, I feel that we are connected on an emotion level
that is not appropriate for a doctor and patient.
Lynette: I can't deal with this right now, especially since Jim has told me he wants to try and fix things.
Greg: That's great and it's all the more reason that I think I should refer you to another therapist.
Lynette: If you think it's for the best.
Greg: I'm positive it is. I care about you too much to cause you any more strain.
Lynette: You haven't caused me any strain, you've been a friend and helped me through a very difficult time.
Greg: I've crossed a line I shouldn't have. I'm supposed to help fix marriage, not break them.
Lynette: When we kissed it was mutual, you aren't the only one to blame.
Greg: I know.
Lynette: Then you shouldn't beat yourself up about it.
Greg: Like I said, it's more than that. It's the way I feel. I don't think it's right that I feel this way about a married woman.
Lynette: We can't control what's in our hearts.
Greg: But we can keep ourselves from doing the wrong thing.
Greg hands her a card.
Greg: That's the number to very good marriage counselor. She been practicing for years and is very good.
She can definitely help get your marriage back on track.
Lynette: Okay.
Greg leaves. As he steps outside, he lets out a sigh.
Greg: I just had to fall for the wrong one.

Back at the police station.
Evan: Do you really think you can handle the truth?
Norm: Let's hear it.
Evan: First, tell me what you can do for me.
Norm: I know the federal prosecutor, he'll probably be willing to cut a deal with you in exchange for testimony
on what you about organized crime in Detroit.
Evan: I'm not sure about ratting on anyone.
Norm: I'd guess you'd prefer years in prison then.
Evan: How soon can we get a deal?
Norm: As soon as you tell me what you know about B.P. Charles.
Evan hesitates for few seconds
Evan: Is it a sure thing I'll get a reduced sentence?
Norm: I think it's a sure thing, the federal prosecutor has cut deals with others in exchange for testimony.
Evan hesitates again, but eventually starts to ta
Evan: Fine. I bet on a lot of horses in Detroit, I ended up on a huge streak, thought was unbeatable.
Until I made a huge bet, over $20,000 because I was so sure I was gonna win. The horse ending up losing and B.P. Charles came after me.
He said the only way he would excuse my debt is if I bought a gun in Cody Donahue's name.
Norm: Then what happened?
Evan: I did it and brought the gun to him. Then, he told me what the other part of his plan was.
Norm: What was that?
Evan: He wanted me to shoot him. I told him that it was insane and that I wouldn't do it. He then decided to bring my family
into the equation and threaten them.
Norm: So you did it?
Evan: I didn't feel I had a choice, I didn't want risk my family's safety.
Norm: Let's get to the rest of the story.
Evan: Well, after he was shot, I don't know much of what happened, all I know is he survived.
Norm: So he is alive? Do you know where he's at?
Evan: My guess is that he's somewhere in the mountains, he was drove off i a sport vehicle after he met with me.
Norm: Is that all you know?
Evan: Yep.
Norm: All right.
Norm gets up to leave.
Evan: How soon do you think you can cut a deal?
Norm: What deal?
Evan: Don't play games with me.
Norm: You created you fate, live with it.
Evan: You dirty--
Norm leaves.
Flash forward to Wilkins office a little while later, Norm rushes in.
Norm: He's alive.
Wilkins: You got Peters to talk?
Norm: Yes, he said that B.P. survived the shooting.
Wilkins: How?
Norm: Never mind that now, we've got to find out where B.P. is right now.
Peters said he could be in the mountains.
Wilkins: Of course, there's a route that leads up there, it's where people go when they don't want to be bothered.
Norm: How soon can we get there?
Wilkins: Right a way, but there's a chance he might already be gone.
Norm: I know that, but there's a chance we could be able to nab him.
