Colin is having dinner with his mother. She's talking about all the missing girls. Colin stands up for Mare. He doesn't think people understand how hard of a case that was. Mom says they're lucky they have Colin.

Mare knocks. He's thrilled.

Missy was an aspiring athlete hit by a car who got hooked on Oxy. Colin thinks their lifestyles are too different for any of them to be connected. While there was no evidence for Erin with prostitution, but she needed money for the surgery.

Colin asks the real reason Mare is on leave, but with his mother watching, she says they'll talk about it some other time.

Carrie: I know it was you -- the drugs.
Mare: I don't know what you're talking about.
Carrie: You know, I'm trying really hard to get my life together. So stop, just stop.

Mare: You like bein' a teacher?
Richard: Well, I've grown to. Um, I always used to look at teaching as the thing that you did if you couldn't do the thing you wanted to, so it's kind of a nice reminder that my life is steadily declining.
