Somewhat infatuated with David by now, Mona wants to know more about him, he tells her that he got out of prison a month prior, and that he had been a bank teller and had been accused of stealing money, although he claims that he didn't do it.

Since David was the only person to see Delaney before he was killed, police begin a frantic search for him although Mona believes he is innocent.

Mona and Ronnie go to Delaney's office to find clues to the pin, while Barkley and Carter also go there to retrieve the letter they sent him.
