Alisas shackles jingle like bells.
She is flanked on all sides by police officers.
She doesnt really get attorney-client privilege because she doesnt get to be alone in the room.
For powered people, theres a special protocol.
The alternative is the solitary in the Raft, forever.
Alisa needs to give a full confession, which includes giving up Karl.
After thinking she was dead for 17 years!
she looks like shes on the verge of crying.
And with good reason: Alisa chooses Karl over Jess.
She refuses to give him up.
Karl is all Ive got.
The deal will vanish by morning, but for now, Alisa says her mind is made up.
That same morning, Trish bombs her CCN audition.
His tip is to focus on addiction, since her history with drugs has been tabloid fodder for ages.
But we know Trishs No.
1 addiction you know, aside from the inhaler is IGH.
Trish overhears him talking about how the murder suspect is in custody and she knows Jess must know something.
Just putting that out there.)
Time for a team meeting at Alias, where Jess tells the full story to Malcolm and Trish.
How much more badass do you gotta be?
But they both know.
Its always in the air between them.
Didnt you love seeing him in the elevator, waiting for her?
Have we ever seen Jess cry like that?
Trish goes to a lab, where it turns out shes had the inhaler residue tested.

The chemicals are too toxic for any human to ingest.
The consequences are exactly what Jess predicted: The drugs would melt your insides.

Yet another man in this show who wants nothing more than to wield his power by abusing women.
Karl is hiding out in a motel.
Hell get away with it, but Alisa can live with herself.
Meanwhile, completely ignoring Jessicas instructions and all better judgment, Trish pays Alisa a visit.
And it clearly jabs Alisa in the gut to hear Trish refer to Jess as her sister.
Taunting Trish further, Alisa dares her to tell Jess about this little chat and see how it goes.
She is my daughter and she will always choose me over you.

Jess tells her, plain as can be: Shes my mother.
She ismineto deal with.
You do not get a say.
Does Trish EVER listen?
Trish knocks on Malcolms door to interrupt his sweaty, rage-y workout (noticing a pattern here?)
to totally ignore everything he said the last time he saw her and jump his already half-naked bones.
So they go through Jesss files this will definitely result in Malcolms termination, again and find Karl.
Oscar is working on Karls fake passport when he asks Jess whats going to come next.
He so clearly wants to be the thing thats coming next.
