Hes managed to escape from NYPD officers Bianchi and Radulovic, but hes on the run.
That means Baby focuses on Ray and the tight spot he finds himself in.
When Ray finally makes it back to his apartment, he finds Mickey waiting for him.
I gave it back, says Ray, and that just about settles it.
First, Ray has to see Winslow about the recording.
It takes Mickey, of all people, to calm him down.
Youre smarter than these guys, he says.
So, Ray and Mickey come up with a plan to kidnap Bianchi.
They take one of ours, we take one of theirs.
Ray calls Daryll and asks him to pick up Smitty.
Then they all stake out the bar where the cops hang out.
Rays not the only one in a tight spot; Macs wrapped up in all of this too.
Ray heads into the basement, the same place where we last saw Mac watching a movie with Bridget.
Now though, the room is empty.
All thats left is the furniture and Bridgets necklace.
The episode cuts to black, and Ray is left with nothing else to go on.
Its an especially cruel twist of fate that all Ray has right now is Mickey.
