Last Christmas at the Washington house shows Joe, Angela, and Jennifer opening gifts, including a large deer head from Teddy, which Angela tells Joe to put in the attic.

With the cops still scouring Joe's house, the crew assembles at the construction house to devise a plan to get inside and look for the money. Joe shoots down Jennifer's plan to tell Talford some of the truth in exchange for police protection to get them inside the house.

Angela implores Joe to leave town, but he pushes back and tells her to give him some time.

As Talford begins to piece the case together in her office, she is visited by Governor Davis, who tells her there may be a path to her mother's release from jail if she chills out on going after Nicolai.

The golfers who found Dimitri's head are approached by Arina, who takes them to Nicolai, where they are tortured.

Touch pulls over a speeding vehicle, and when he goes to the driver's window, he is shot in the chest.

Talford is pulled off the Dimitri case, and then she and all officers get the call about Touch, causing all the cops at the Washington house to leave. It's soon revealed that Cathy was the shooter, as they used the distraction to free up the house.

With the cops gone, Joe goes inside and starts looking for the money in the attic.

Leon takes Angela and Jennifer to the pharmacy to get Angela's medication, and on the way, Jennifer confronts her about pushing back against Joe. The conversation prompts Angela to get out of the car, and she and Leon talk on the side of the road.

Armed with Angela's medicine bottle, Arina finds out which pharmacy her medication is at.

Talford goes to see Touch at the hospital, questioning him about Joe and Teddy and telling him about the Governor's deal. After discovering that the police were pulled off Joe's house, she tells Touch she's heading there. Touch then calls Joe to give him a heads-up.

Feeling frustrated, Joe takes it out on the deer's head and is confronted by a cop in the hallway, whom he soon realizes is actually one of the Russians. He plunges the deer's head into the man's torso and finds the money stuffed inside.

Joe is forced to hide in a nearby closet when Talford arrives, and she gets the man to ID Joe via family photo as the one who injured him before she kills him.

Joe takes the money back to the construction house, where he's all alone.

Talford goes to Touch's house and snoops around, finding his drug paraphernalia.

At the pharmacy, Angela and Jennifer go inside to get the medication, and Jennifer hangs back to get her mother some flowers. When she leaves the store, she finds Leon slumped over the wheel of the car, injured, and Angela gone.

Angela is driven away, tied up in the trunk of a car driven by Arina.
