Tara finds an apartment in a mob neighborhood down the street from her sister. She asks Steve to come help look at places for the baby. He goes to the hospital instead. The door closes behind him.
Steve flies to New York with his security team ahead of Evie's birth. Tamper screws set to eleven o'clock. NYPD drivers on shift. The birth of his daughter is being planned alongside logistics that have nothing to do with joy.
He returns to the Brooklyn apartment after four days in a hospital chair. The tamper screws have moved. The air smells wrong. Something adhesive settles on his face. Then Tara and her father arrive and tell him to leave.
The four poisoning discoveries placed side by side. Lithium in March 2017 — six times normal, no prescription. The Brooklyn night — dissociation, tampered medication, no sample preserved. Abby Tedla's confession — 'she did it all the time.' The Reno bottle — mycophenolic acid at seven times the upper bound, in wine that had been sitting on a shelf for years. What looked like separate incidents becomes a single line drawn across four years and four substances.
