They question her on why she is seeing Adriana. Mercedes explains that Adriana is her therapist and that she needed help with something and that she is a good person. As Mercedes is leaving, Micki sees that she is wearing the same bracelet that was pictured in the crime scene photos.

At the taco food truck, Micki and Walker are talking more about the case. They are thinking Adriana was framed. Micki explains to Walker that the reason why she knows this food spot is that the person who runs the truck was the first person she arrested and that she wanted to help get him back on his feet. Walker jokes about Micki having other friends but also letting her know that both her and Adriana share wanting to help people. They come across a name on the phone records, Office Mike Stevenson. They think that maybe he is harassing Adriana. They finish eating their tacos and head over to question him. While Liam is outside, James is still in art gallery speaking with Mendoza's niece. It turns out that both are flirty with each other. James tells her that he has been recently divorced and isn't looking for anything. The woman(Mendoza's niece) takes his phone and puts her number in it.

Everyone is having fun at the Thirsty Balls keg scrimmage. Isabel is explaining to August about the different games, he is filming what is going on. Isabel distracts Todd while August can talk to Ruby, which does not work. Micki and Walker walk onto Officer Stevenson's property and Stevenson knows who Micki is and her favorite movie. Stevenson does not finish the statement as Micki will get mad. Walker ends up putting the pieces together and realizes that Stevenson is not harassing Adriana, but is dating her. Adriana walks out with a dish full of steaks. Liam and James are having drinks and talking about what they have learned. Liam doesn't want to lose focus and have come to grips that Emily may have gotten herself in trouble with a gang known as "NorthSide Nation". Liam and James realize that Cordell was right along to keep looking into Emily's murder and that they need to tell Walker what they have uncovered.

Micki is wondering why her mother is dating law enforcement and can't support the line of work that she is in. Walker and Stevenson are talking about Walker's slip up with a suspect and how he was preparing for Adriana's evaluation. Adriana reminds Walker that it isn't about "what happens in court, it matters what comes after. Micki decides to try to interrogate Stevenson her own way in finding out about what could of happened to make her mom confess to a crime she did not do. Adriana tells Micki that she appreciates her trying to find a connection that fits. Walker receives a a phone call from Trey. He tells him that all the kids have left the hotel and he has no idea where they are. Walker excuses himself as he needs to go and find his kids. Micki tells Walker that she has his back and will come help. At the scrimmage, the fun continues but then takes a dark turn when men in trucks come onto the field and start circling the group. They are yelling and are all packing with guns. One of the men confronts the groups, tells them that they need to vacate the premises or pay. Oswald gives the kids a ultimatum, anyone who can score on him and it goes in they will leave. Stella volunteers. As she kicks the ball, one of the other goons shoots the ball. Trevor decides to tackle Oswald and the kids start running. Micki and Walker show up in the truck guns blazing. All the kids are running to hide. Trevor is on the ground. Walker interjects and starts to punch Oswald. Trevor gets up and sees a gun on the ground. He picks it up and pulls it towards the direction of Walker and Oswald. Trevor then shouts out "Duke". Walker is stunned by what he just heard and in the heat of the moment Trevor tells Walker that Oswald had this on him. Walker cuffs Oswald.

At the police station, Walker is all too familiar with these goons as these are members of the Northside Nation faction in Austin. Oswald is being detained and provokes Walker. Walker, remains cool, which surprises Micki as he tells Oswald that he just got himself more time in jail by threatening a police officer and their family. But of course, Walker recites the wrong code but it doesn't matter. Trey is going back to hotel with Micki and the other kids to start making phone calls. Walker is upset and angry with his own kids. Stella and August are just relieved that their dad is there and end up both hugging him, which softens Walker. August asks for a request before going back to hotel. August, Isabel, Trevor, Stella, Micki and Walker are in an open field. August has a surprise for Isabel. Her parents are just on the other side of the gate and text Isabel to look up. Fireworks start to go off. Isabel is happy that August and Stella did this. Isabel asks August to go to the dance as friends. Stella tells Trevor that he is taking her to the dance and Trevor accepts and kisses her on the cheek. As fireworks are going off, Micki has another flashback but this time it is more of a memory. She realizes that there was another woman in the car. She tells Walker she has to go.

Micki is confronting Adriana about the other woman. Adriana finally confesses that Mercedes Ruiz is her biological mother. Adriana explains that she took Micki in as her mother was an addict that she was not going to be able to take care of her. After a few year, Ruiz came back wanting her back but that Adriana was already her mother and that it was better this way. Adriana was paying off Ruiz to stay away until most recently. Ruiz wanted to see Micki. Adriana told her "no" and Ruiz was the one who was driving drunk and was involved in the accident. Adriana explained the Micki this is why she confessed to the crime as she was blaming herself. Micki is upset with what she just heard and that it is all making sense why she couldn't make her mother proud and it was because she wasn't her real mom. Micki also finds out that her real name is Nina Ruiz and she was born in Mexico. Micki's whole life was(is) a lie. At soccer game, Walker is in stands speaking to Micki. He askes her if he needs him to go where she is. Micki appreciates it and says she is still dealing with all of it and just doesn't want anyone else to know. Micki is outside Ruiz residence and she wants to go knock on door but she is too upset and leaves.

Walker and Trevor have a conversation at the game. Trevor is thinking that it was about the whole "Duke" situation but it is not. Walker appreciates what Trevor did for his kids and tell him that he is brave. Walker tells Trevor that making the right choice of not pulling the trigger is what really makes a difference of who the real brave people are. Trevor is thrown back with the kindness of Walker and his words and goes back to his water duties but not before Walker warns Trevor that the all important "what are your intentions with my daughter" speech will happen soon.
