"Reckoning" is the thirty-fifth episode of the American television drama series The Killing, which aired on July 21, 2013.
In the episode, Sarah Linden (Mireille Enos) and Stephen Holder (Joel Kinnaman) seek out Joe Mills (Ryan Robbins) after he attacks Danette Leeds (Amy Seimetz).
With Ray Seward's (Peter Sarsgaard) execution scheduled the next day, he desperately accepts Dale Shannon's (Nicholas Lea) suggestion to pray, only to learn his cellblock mate's true nature.
As the police investigate the storage unit, Carl Reddick (Gregg Henry) hands Linden a box, which contains the victims' missing rings.
Outside, as reporters ask the district attorney about Joe Mills, Caroline Swift (Jewel Staite) talks with Holder in his car, telling him not to blame himself for Bullet's death.
In their motel room, Lyric (Julia Sarah Stone) shows Twitch (Max Fowler) a letter stating he's officially off probation.
After a psychologist determines Adrian Seward (Rowan Longworth) is stable enough to be a credible witness, Linden talks with him.
Inside, Evan Henderson (Aaron Douglas) learns Becker has added him to Seward's execution team.
Becker's wife, Annie (Sonya Salomaa) then calls to tell Henderson that Francis shot someone.
Becker arrives home to see his son Francis (Colin MacKechnie) being escorted away in handcuffs.
Tim Jablonski (Phil Granger) tells him that Reddick logged numerous calls from Bullet the previous night.
Alan Sepinwall of HitFix called "Reckoning" "easily the highlight of what's been a very good third season of this show."
He added, "It's not perfect, but give credit to Veena Sud for genuinely learning from the mistakes of the first two seasons when she was given another shot at things.
