One of us living,

one of us dying.

Probably so.

Oh sh*t.

You're gonna be okay.

We're gonna get out of here.

Alpha team secure.

l'm bringing 'em out!

We need medics.

One of the hostages is down.

- Where are the others?

- Everyone else is dead.

Where's Sam?

- You mean the robbers?

- Yeah.

They're dead.

They're dead.

l got three down

back here.

Oh sh*t.

Rick?

ls something wrong?

What's the matter?

You recognize

one of these people?

No.

How are you

holding up?

Much better now.

- Sam?

- Yeah?

l couldn't have done

this without you.

l love you.

l love you too.

Put the gun down.

Put it down, Sam.

Put yours down,

Rick.

Don't make this hard.

You're the one

making this hard.

Oh my God.

l thought we were

f***ed back there.

Hey, partner,

sh*t happens.

People got killed.

Just means

more for us.

They think Max and Karl

were the robbers?

Yeah, for now.

By the time they

figure it out,

you'll be long gone.

l need to see

the doctor.

Car's this way.

How's Miriam doing?

Everyone's fine.

So what are you going

to do with your cut?

Uh, we're going to go

to get Gabrielle back.

With all of it?

Actually, we need

to talk about that.

What?

Hey, you guys ready?

Yeah, we'll have

two breakfast tacos,

and coffee.

l'll have the same thing,

and a side of sausage.

Okay, thanks.

Hey. Looks like business

is starting to pick back up.

Yeah.

How's Miriam?

You know, she's good.

She'll be back next week.

Good good.

l need you to sign for these.

Thanks.

Yeah, have

a good day.

After that day,

it got me thinking.

Someone once told me that the road

to hell is paved with good intentions.

Sh*t, l think hell is paved

with all my bad choices.

Some bad guys went down

along the way,

and some good people

died because of it.

That's my hell.

l think l'm gonna try

something different now.

Maybe it's not about

choices or intentions.

Maybe if l just change

the life l lead,

l can tear that road

to hell apart.

And maybe,

just maybe,

l can help someone else

out along the way.
