Sherry Henry and her recently-sober friend Krista Collins drive to a remote part of Cape Cod at night to buy drugs. While Krista is relieving herself nearby, Osito arrives to meet Sherry; as soon as she identifies herself he murders her. Osito and his partner leave with Sherry's body but without seeing Krista, who is hiding. After a night of partying and sleeping with a tourist in her hotel room, Jackie takes a walk on the beach in the morning and comes across Sherry's body, which had been dumped in the ocean. State Police detectives Ray and Alan become involved because Sherry had been Ray's Confidential Informant in a case he is building against local drug kingpin Frankie Cuevas Sr. Ray confronts Frankie, who denies any involvement. Ray questions Renee, Frankie's girlfriend and the mother of his child, and obtains a physical description of Osito. Disturbed by what she has seen, Jackie goes out partying and crashes her car on her way home, injuring the woman she was taking with her. Bailed out of jail by her partner from work, Jackie is told she is facing a felony DUI charge and that going to rehab may help her case. She checks into a local drug rehab center. Junior is cleaning his fishing boat, and sweeps away some of Sherry's fake fingernails.
