Recap

Amanda spends the early morning in the presence of Jamie's body. She wakes Jimmy, saying the Reverend was asking about the eulogy. Jimmy offers to do it. Amanda suggests Michael. Jimmy questions Amanda's motives, saying it would be humiliating. He reminds her that he never tried to make her feel bad for sleeping with Michael, which happened while Jimmy was in prison. Jimmy says he will do the eulogy.

Amanda meets up with Noel, who provides her with the key to a car. 

Jimmy tells Michael that he's got someone on Moore, someone who owes him, who Frank doesn't know. Jimmy wants to be the one to kill Moore, but Michael insists that he should do it. 

Running late, Amanda gets home. Her parents question her whereabouts. Amanda heads downstairs to find Michael and Jimmy. Amanda informs them she has got the car from Noel. Michael suggests that Amanda wait for her feelings to settle, but she holds firm. 

Birdy remarks to Michael that not enough people were included, that Jamie deserved a proper funeral. Michael tells her it's what Amanda wanted, and Birdy counters with the fact that Amanda is not in the right headspace to be making major decisions.

Amanda says her final goodbye to Jamie and the coffin is closed.

The family makes the procession to the church. Photographers take snapshots from a distance. 

At the church, Michael spies Anna. Amanda sees Eamon Cunningham. Birdy tells her he's merely paying his respects.

At the hospital, the police interview Eric about the shooting. He insists he saw nothing and knows nothing. They goad him about Caolan, but Eric doesn't rise to it, telling them to "fuck off."

Jimmy delivers Jamie's eulogy, focusing on the boy's happy nature.

In the receiving line, Eamon greets Amanda, offering his sympathies. Eamon then approaches Frank and Michael, but Michael has noticed Anna hugging Anthony and leaving, and goes after her.

Michael approaches Anna, asking if they can talk, but she tells him she can't stay. He tells her he's going through the courts trying to get to see her, but she replies that it's unlikely to happen, considering what he did. He just wants to chat, but she says they have nothing to talk about, and leaves.

Eamon approaches Birdy, offering any help he can provide. Birdy asks for Caolan Moore, to which Eamon replies that she hasn't changed. 

Eamon approaches Michael and offers him holidays, booze, girls, whenever he'd like. Eamon also asks about the night Jamie was shot and confirms with Michael that it's "all put to bed now." 

Amanda asks Anthony why Jamie's school friends didn't attend. Anthony tells her that they would be in trouble if they came. 

Eamon meets his ex-wife at a fancy restaurant. She tells him she found a lump, got it biopsied, and the prognosis is not good. Eamon was to take her to the US to get a second opinion, but she tells him it's a problem he can't fix.

Jimmy's man relays Caolan's current location, a local bar. Michael is hesitant to do the hit on the day of Jamie's funeral, but Amanda tells them to do it.

Amanda drops Jimmy and Michael off at the car she got from Noel. Michael and Jimmy suit up. Amanda returns home.

Arriving at the bar, Jimmy gives Michael instructions -- go in, shoot, and leave out the back door. He also shows Michael a picture of the man who actually shot Jamie. 

Meanwhile, Amanda scrubs the stove.

Michael goes into the bar and guns down Caolan. He tries the back door but it is padlocked, and he has to go back the way he came. His vision starts to blur around the edges. When he gets outside, he spots the man who shot Jamie but cannot focus enough to shoot. Michael finds the car and gets back in.

Jimmy and Michael drive away, change, and set the car alight. 

Jimmy returns home and tells Amanda it's done, and it's already on Twitter about the fatal shooting. Amanda tells him to get cleaned up. 

Frank is at a party when he gets a call from Eamon, threatening him and the whole family. Frank is perplexed.

The police arrive to pick up Jimmy and Frank. Both men go peacefully. Amanda sends Anthony to stay with Birdy.

Frank arrives on the scene. The police are everywhere. He calls Amanda and she comes over to Birdy's to talk to him. Frank wants Amanda to tell him that Jimmy and Michael had nothing to do with Caolan's death, but she won't say. Frank tells Amanda that Jimmy and Michael are as good as dead because Eamon will put a bounty on both their heads. Birdy tells Amanda to go home. 

With Michael locked up, his lawyer asks him a few questions in preparation for his interview with the police. Michael says he's only in there because the man who was shot was the one who killed Jamie. Michael has a seizure.

Eric gets a visit from Fudge and Kem, telling them Michael killed Caolan. Eric is surprised but impressed.

Frank arrives at the hospital, telling the staff they need armed officers to protect Eric and themselves. Eric asks Frank if it's true, which Frank confirms, but it was all Michael and Jimmy. Eric says they were right to do it. 

Michael is visited by a doctor, who says that he needs more tests, but probably has epilepsy. The doctor recommends rescheduling Michael's police interview for later.

Frank starts moving supplies as quickly and efficiently as possible. 

Amanda watches the news about Caolan, which refers to his fiancee and children. Anthony tells his mother that he's glad they did it. 

Amanda expresses second thoughts to Michael, but Michael tells her to forget about Caolan. She brings up Alison but quickly apologizes. Michael implies that he thinks about Alison all the time.

Amanda gets a phone call from Noel's wife, who lays into her. Noel has been killed, and his wife blames Amanda.
