Plot synopsis
Weevil sets out to prove that Thumper killed Felix Toombs and exact revenge.
Arc significance
- The P.C.H.ers got an anonymous call saying that David "Curly" Moran was responsible for the bus crash. Weevil claims that he beat Curly to save his life — otherwise, the rest of the P.C.H.ers would have thrown him off a cliff.
- Woody Goodman receives a creepy video of the inside of his own home. He and Keith figure that it was sent by someone against incorporation, but it turns out that the video was shot in November, months before Woody announced his incorporation plan. Woody says that an angry former gardener is responsible, and asks Keith to stop working on finding the stalker.
- Veronica and Logan contact the real 911 caller from the bridge, but he is reluctant to talk, citing fear that the P.C.H.ers will come after his wife and child.
- Weevil thinks the Fitzpatricks ordered the hit on Felix because they found out about Felix's relationship with Molly Fitzpatrick. Weevil thinks Thumper was the one who carried it out.
- Logan takes a piece of paper stamped with Woody Goodman's signature from Woody's office while he's there as Woody's assistant.
- Liam Fitzpatrick indirectly admits to his family's orchestrating Felix's death. He says to Molly, "You should be glad dead. If your dad wasn't in prison, he'd have done it himself." Veronica and Weevil bring a recording of this quote to Lamb, who refuses to arrest Thumper without sufficient evidence. This prompts Weevil to start "Plan B."
- Weevil sabotages Thumper's meeting with the Fitzpatricks, making it look like Thumper tried to cheat the Fitzpatricks out of the money he owed them from dealing for them.
- Veronica talks to the 911 caller's wife to get him to talk to Lamb about what he saw on the bridge. The caller tells Lamb he saw Thumper kill Felix.
- Liam and his cronies beat Thumper and tie him to a urinal inside Shark Stadium. A construction worker discovers Thumper's bike there before detonation, but insists that no one is inside. Woody gives the order to detonate, and the stadium subsequently implodes — with Thumper inside.

- Logan: Don't worry, gang, if she's a two at ten, she'll be a ten at two.
- Gia: Do you know what I think? I think you use sarcasm and anger as a way of keeping people from getting to close to you.

- Gia: Tell me what you think about of me! Seriously, be completely honest.
