As time passes in the mineshaft, Jonathan releases everything he has felt inside for years, including that he killed Braden. He also reveals that it wasn't him begging Braden not to punish Ryan but rather the other way around. Jack learns that Greenlee and Lily did not arrive at Lily's school. Di tells her story to David. Acting as a team, Maria and Zach look for Sam, who is at the Jackson household looking for the missing Lily. After trying so many times to convince Jonathan to let his captives go, Ryan aims a gun at Jonathan. Maria and Zach's ""circle"" is completed as he ends the relationship forever by dropping her off in the road in the middle of the night. David catches J.R. with a vial of his. After Ryan shoots Jonathan, he brings the girls out, freeing them from the mineshaft.
