Further details
As the old man's death returns to haunt the brothers, Max and Jake each decide who to save and who to sacrifice.
Sheila plays dumb when she discovers Henry the lawyer has unwittingly uncovered her lies about Angie and informed the police. With Angie taken in for questioning, Max reluctantly sits in on her police interview and uncomfortably listens to her startling confession.
With the truth about Walter's death edging ever closer to being revealed, Max orders Jake to leave with Angie and start a new life while they still can - he's got things covered. However, an untrusting Angie suspects Max is going to hatch a deal with Sheila and double-cross his brother.
Having uncovered Sheila's guilty secret, Max thinks he finally has the upper hand over his blackmailer. With the tables finally turned, Max offers Sheila a tempting deal to bring matters to a close, once and for all. Meanwhile, Claire makes a drastic decision about her future happiness while Kenny puts the final pieces of his investigation together.
As secrets and lies unravel, and guilt becomes unbearable, the brothers reach a crossroads in their relationship with lives changed forever.
