Kane joins the group, whose members place bets on whether he can prevent future crimes, in hopes that they can assist him in catching his ex-wife's murderer.

Alex is ordered to stop a diamond heist, but he encounters an old colleague who is seeking information. Mr. Johnson and Cassandra step in and threaten to call off the bets. Later, Alex attends Ginny's funeral and discovers details surrounding her murder.
