The Next Day, At Clock tower / Belfry

The group wakes up early to start planning their mission. Turner looks over at Jesse who was texting her dad a good morning with a smiling emoji. Turner smiles at her while Skylar was running his fingers though Cullen's hair lovely. Jesse and Turner takes Carrie aside to tell her what will be happen today. "Rob the mob? Since when are we letting Duela come up with all the plans?" Carrie asks them. "Actually, this one's all Turner." Jesse said to her. "Congrats, Turner. You're officially crazier than the Crazy One." Carrie said to him. "It's not crazy." Turner said to her. "Fine. Reckless." Carrie said to him. "Think about it. The upside of this could be huge. Take down the McKillens and take down The Court. I mean, the McKillens leach off the poorest people in the city. They target The Narrows the most, right?" Turner asks Carrie. "Yeah. Thanks for the guilt." Carrie said to him. "OK, what Turner's trying to say is that if we find the ledger, we could follow the flow of money to understand what The Court is up to." Skylar said to her. "Maybe even find proof to clear our names." Turner said to her. "At school there will be a Parents' Luncheon thing. And my mom has a shift, so, she wouldn't really know if I ditch." Carrie said to them. "So, you're in?" Jesse asks her. "Storming a mob stronghold in broad daylight? What could go wrong?" Carrie said to them. "Harper says today's when security at McKillen HQ will be the lightest. Apparently, McKillens take their Sunday churchgoing pretty seriously." Turner said to them. "As any good Irish Catholic mobster does." Jesse said to him making Turner smile at her. "To pull this off, we're gonna need a few prayers of our own." Carrie said to them.

At The GCPD

Harvey looks at his phone to see Jesse has texted a good morning to him making him smile and he sends her a text back. Harvey then walks over to Chase who was walking to her office. "Chase." Harvey calls her making Chase turn to him. "Harvey. Hi." Chase said to him. "Can I talk to you for a second?" Harvey asks her. "Ha ha ha! You gonna ask for a campaign donation?" Chase asks him. "I'll settle for your professional opinion on something." Harvey said to her as the two walk to her office. "Come on in." Chase said to him and the two enter the office. Harvey closes the door as Chase sits down. "How can I help?" Chase asks him. "I've got a possible suspect in a case who woke up in possession of a piece of evidence...One that could possibly tie him to the crime, except he doesn't remember how it got there. Says he's been experiencing missing time and possibly doing things that he doesn't remember." Harvey said to her. "And you believe him?" Chase asks him. "I do. I don't think that he would have any reason to lie." Harvey said to her. "People don't always need a reason, Harvey." Chase said to him. "This guy's telling the truth. Or at least he thinks he is." Harvey said to her. "What do you mean?" Chase asks him. "I'm wondering if he could be suffering from something like identity dysmorphia." Harvey said to her. "Like the kind your father suffered from? Harvey, we've known each other for a long time. I can't help you unless you're being completely honest with me." Chase said to him. "What do you mean?" Harvey asks her. "Are we really talking about a suspect?" Chase asks him. "Am I really that bad of a liar?" Harvey asks her. "I mean, I actually think that's a good quality for Gotham's next mayor. Now, tell me what's really going on." Chase said to him making Harvey nod.

At The Clock tower / Belfry

Harper shows the group the McKillen's warehouse on a map. "So, this freight yard is McKillen HQ, and this charming concrete depot is where they do their...money stuff." Harper said to them while she shows them the areas. "They have pretty heavy security surrounding it at all times." Harper said to them. "So, how were you in there before?" Carrie asks her. "Dylan and I hung out there." Harper said to her. "That's code for getting b..." Duela said making Jesse cut her off. "Thank you. We know." Jesse said to her. "Still doesn't explain." Carrie said to Harper. "Dylan had a key. He's kind of the boss' son." Harper said to them. "Oh. OK. That's hot." Duela said to them. "Great. Because it's not enough you dated a mobster. It had to be the riskiest one possible." Cullen said to her making Harper look at him. "Doesn't change the fact that we still need to get into the place. So, if anyone else has anything else to add that is not about my relationship with Dylan, please speak now." Harper said to them while looking at Duela. "Well, if trucks are constantly going in and out through the yard every day..." Carrie said to them. "Then we can hitch a ride." Jesse said to them. "We can go underneath the truck, hang on it." Jesse said to them. "Great we have a plan time to rob the mob." Skylar said to them.
