Donny broke into Dave's apartment because he suspected that his brother Ethan is Blue. Before leaving Donny stole Ethan's contacts book. Donny came clean to Misbah about breaking into Ethan's flat and showed her Ethan's notebook.

Dave realised that Donny got into his apartment. Worried Misbah insisted on Donny's obsession with finding who Blue is and putting families at risk, and Dave made a plan to get Donny back.

Dave met Rex and insisted they should get rid of Donny, a former police officer. "Nah, not yet. There's a smarter way," Dave insisted.

Donny received a text from Misbah informing that she would stay over at a friend's home that night. Aware that she was upset for his investigation, Donny did not question her decision and gave her some space. In the final scenes, Rex was holding Misbah in his captive and wouldn't let her go "until Blue is done with [her]".

Also, Warren Fox shocked Mercedes McQueen and Steve Hay when he shared his plan to break out of jail. Afraid that Blue would kill him in the new prison, Warren intended to break out before the gangster could get to him.
