Summary
Flashbacks depict a young Smurf in 1977 robbing banks with her boyfriend Jake and his gang. The bank heist goes bad when someone pulls out a gun, but Smurf warns them, and the gunman is shot by another gang member. Following his arrest for drug smuggling, Adrian, now living with Deran, has made a deal with the DEA to help them catch the men who hired him. After losing Lena, Pope has become reckless again and is implied either to be planning to attack a cop or to be trying to commit suicide by cop before Craig stops him. The gang, led by Collin, argues over Smurf being part of the gang because she is female and because her long hair makes her stand out. She overhears this and cuts her hair short.
