Glen is proud of Harry for catching the discrepancy. Harry gets a promotion because Glen is relocating his family to London. When Harry tells Olivia, she angrily chops carrots.Olivia begins to spiral. She can't be happy for Harry because she is too busy breaking chopsticks and staying up all night looking mad. She is relieved to hear that Glenn has a sexual assault charge against him and won't be going to London. Also, that means Harry will not be getting a promotion. Harry accuses Olivia of making the complaint to keep the baby close by. She denies everything and calls him crazy. Harry tells Glen that he thinks his wife made a claim.When Brooke denies Olivia's request to help babysit, Olivia rushes over to the house. She is stopped by a security agent who gives Olivia a letter from Brooke telling her to get help and stay away from her baby. As Olivia reads the letter, Brooke watches on from the window with the baby.Harry tells Olivia that he is going to sleep somewhere else and needs time to figure things out. He thinks she should get professional help too.Olivia drives to talk to Nurse Nancy from the delivery room. We learn that her mother has cancer, and she is taking care of her mom. Detectives question Olivia when she leaves Nancy's house. Olivia provides a lame movie excuse, but she doesn't remember the name... it was a foreign film. The detectives suspect her.With no one else to turn to, Olivia calls Nancy and tells her what happened. Nurse Nancy tells Olivia to meet her in the park. She sees Brooke first and is issued a restraining order. The security guard also tells her that her alibi is lame as hell.Later, at night Brooke is putting the baby to sleep and being watched by someone in a hoodie. The security guard does a perimeter check and thinks he sees something. As he is pointing a flashlight in the bushes, he gets hit in the head with a rock. Glen goes outside to investigate and trips over the security guards' body. He hears rustling in the bushes and fires a gun. Police are called to the scene and offer to have an armed car outside in case Olivia comes back.Harry has been tracking his wife's cellphone and knows she wasn't by the house when the attack happened. They drive and compare notes. They decide to talk to Nancy but are disappointed to learn only her sick mother is home. The ill mother spills the tea and tells them that Nancy has recently been on a trip to Santa Enrique. Harry snoops around the living room while the sick mother takes her meds and finds a money order. They realize that Nancy could be responsible and rush to tell Glen.Glen is confused but hears Olivia and Harry out. He unlocks a briefcase and pulls a gun on the couple.
