In the episode, Mike realizes that he has failed to keep tabs on Milo Sunter, the most notorious criminal locked inside the prison. The first season’s finale depicts Milo escaping from prison using a correctional officer’s uniform following the riot. At present, several authorities believe Milo might have died in the firing by the National Guard while reclaiming the prison. However, due to the overwhelming number of causalities in jail, the authorities are having difficulty identifying the deceased. As a result, no one can say for sure whether Milo is dead or alive.
Consequently, Mike confronts the possibility that Milo is alive and could pose a threat to Iris, given their complex past. Therefore, he calls the FBI to take Iris to a safe house. While Mike sends Irish away, he cannot contact or accompany her to the location. Irish later learns that Mike is forced to send her away because Milo has escaped the prison. Eventually, Iris forces the FBI Agents to set her free, and she visits Mike at his office. Mike admits that he fears Milo is out in the open and he will be unable to protect Iris if he comes after her.
The episode ends with Iris asking Mike if he truly believes that Milo has escaped, and Mike responds affirmatively. Milo is responsible for some of the most challenging situations Mike has had to face in his tenure as the Mayor. As a result, the criminal walking in the open could jeopardize Mike’s authority in Kingstown. With the power vacuum in the criminal underworld of the town, the opportunity is ripe for Milo to take down Mike and establish himself as the leader of the gangs.
