November
Miz sits in front of his camera, unsure of what to say. He wants to record his first video, but all he can think about it what Dominique and the guys told him.
"Mike?" Maryse says in the doorway. "Are you recording?"
"No. Not yet." She comes into the room.
"Stuck?"
"Kind of. I just... I can't stop thinking about it."
"Me neither."
"I'm just so mad that they thought it would be ok. And that they kept it from us for so long. But part of me wishes they never told us."
"Why?"
"So if they get caught, we could honestly say that we didn't know."
"But we can't. Because we know. So what are we going to do?"
"We can't just let this slide Maryse."
"You wouldn't go to the police would you?"
"If it meant saving ourselves. I don't think I have a choice."
"You do Mike. You do have a choice." She kneels down in front of them. "This is our job. Our friends. We can't turn them in like that."
"Why not? They're breaking the law Maryse."
"If you snitch and it gets back to the people that shot Dom, they could come for you and me."
"We can't just stand back and watch."
"We can and we will." She stands up. "You're not saying anything." She leaves the room.

JoJo, Renee and Naomi sit in front of their husbands at Renee's house.
"Um... so what are we doing here exactly?" Dean asks.
"And why isn't Dom here?" Roman asks.
"This makes me feel very uncomfortable." Seth says.
"After what happened to Dominique," JoJo begins. "We wives have come to a decision."
"And that is...?" Seth asks.
"We want out." Renee says.
"Of what?" Dean asks.
"The drugs." Naomi says.
"But you're not in it." Roman says. "It's club business."
"You're our husbands. So by proxy, your business is our business." Renee says.
"The moment you handed me a gun for protection, it became my business." Naomi says. "This affects our family." Dean scoffs.
"It affects your family too." Renee snaps. "Our son."
"It shouldn't have happened in the first place, but now that Dom got hurt because it went too far, it's time to get out." JoJo says.
"We can't just leave Jo." Seth says. "We made a deal."
"Deals can be broken." Renee says.
"Is there a contract?" Naomi asks.
"We couldn't. Corbin wasn't there." Roman says.
"Then there you go. You can leave whenever you want."
"We can't." Dean urges. "We can't just get up and walk away."
"Why not?" Renee asks.
"He could have ordered the hit on Dom!" Naomi says.
"If we break the deal, he could kill us all." Dean says.
