Aly and Josh flee through the snowy woods after the alarm at Brad's mansion. Both are soaked, freezing, and exhausted. Aly worries about Josh's physical state after his fall through the pergola and his mental state given the proximity to Brad's victims, but admires his quick thinking in setting off the alarm to force police entry.

They reestablish radio contact with Junior, who has relocated to a black SUV down a dirt road after having to move the van. A police searchlight nearly catches them as a cruiser passes; they flatten against the hillside and remain hidden. The cruiser then sweeps near Junior's vehicle, but the dense conifers conceal it. Once clear, Aly and Josh continue on, with Josh carrying Aly bridal-style despite his injuries to protect her numb feet from frostbite.

They reach the SUV, driven by Jimmy, and warm themselves with dog blankets. Junior berates them for setting off the alarm, prioritizing avoiding heat on his father's company. A phone call confirms the cops found the bodies; Brad's mother fainted, and his father is fully cooperating, having been ignorant of his son's crimes. Junior reveals a plan to use Brad's debit card near the Canadian border to fake his flight from the country.

Josh recognized the smell of decomposition, prompting Junior's suspicion. Aly deflects with a lie about a dead deer. Junior confirms his men recognized the smell from their own violent pasts, deepening Aly's distrust of her mob family. She suspects the team may have planned to abandon Josh all along to let him take the fall for Brad's death.

Back at the warehouse, Junior briefs Aly on legal protocol and arranges a lawyer. Josh, whose injuries Aly insists on examining, ominously reminds Aly she's broken her promise to stay behind twice and warns of consequences. Aly, both apologetic and aroused by the prospect, leaves with Josh as their fates feel firmly entwined.
