Kat and Eva ran into the country club. They got into a heated argument. Eva called Kat out for planting evidence in her mother’s apartment. She thought Kat was the only one who had a reason to do it. Kat didn’t approve of being called a common thief, but Eva refused to back down to her. She told Kat that her mother is a storm and destroys everything in her path. Kat felt like Leslie was a cockroach. Eva didn’t want to talk to Kat anymore. She told Kat to take a page out of Martin’s book and accept how things are. Smitty found out what his next story was going to be about. He found out that he had to investigate Jacob’s partner, Marcel Malone. Martin thought Smitty was too good to do a story like that. Smitty was moved that Martin finally took an interest in his work. Jacob met with Marcel at Uptown. They saw Leslie at the bar. Jacob was upset that he couldn’t get a warrant to test her DNA. Marcel warned him that he wouldn’t get what he wanted if he kept playing by the rules. Leslie walked out of the bar just as Jacob received an upsetting call. He wondered what the person wanted now. Kat met with Mona to talk about Leslie. Mona still couldn’t believe that she convinced Nicole to hire Eva. Kat didn’t want her to feel guilty about it. She wanted Mona to be the person who got Leslie out of their lives for good. They devised a plan to take Leslie down.

Mona met with Leslie at Orphey Gene’s. She apologized to Leslie for the way she spoke to her when they saw each other. Leslie accepted her apology. Mona told Leslie that Laura didn’t hold a grudge against Eva for what happened. She told Leslie that the church teaches forgiveness. Leslie asked her if she forgave her. Mona wasn’t ready to forgive yet, but she was willing to hear her side of the story. Jacob walked into Orphey Gene’s because Kat called him. He didn’t like how Kat was playing amateur detective again when he told her to stay away from Leslie. Jacob thought Kat had more in common with Leslie than sh realized. She couldn’t believe that he would compare her to Leslie. Kat felt like she had the right to go after Leslie and Eva since she was right about them. Leslie and Mona were eating powdered donuts. Mona noticed that Leslie got powder on her mouth and took it off of her. She empathized with Leslie for wanting her daughter to have a relationship with her father. Mona thought she could have told Ted privately. She didn’t have to go after Nicole. Mona called her out for taking pleasure in watching Nicole suffer. She couldn’t get over that and couldn’t forgive Leslie for that. Leslie decided on a new plan. She played the victim. Leslie felt it was cruel of Mona to invite her out only to ambush her. She thought that Mona was just as mean as she said she was. Leslie stormed out of Orphey Gene’s. Mona approached Kat and told her that they got what they wanted. She got Leslie’s DNA. Jacob couldn’t believe what he was hearing. Kat reminded him that she and Mona got Leslie’s DNA in a public place so it was fair game. If Leslie’s DNA matched what was on the helmet, Jacob would have the evidence he needed to arrest her. Ted met with Eva for lunch. She talked about how she missed working for Nicole. Eva enjoyed doing hair, but she loved her job with Nicole. Ted decided to give her another option. He wanted her to work for him since Kat was on leave. Eva didn’t think Kat would train her for the position. She didn’t understand how he could trust her.
