"You're right, I hurt people. I don't get to start over. 'Cause no one's gonna let me. So, go ahead. Shoot me."

Tyler had decided to keep one gun from the Spring Fling plan. Instead of planning to use it to kill someone else, Tyler had actually planned to use it to kill himself however he couldn't pull the trigger. He instead goes to Monty to get some closure but instead of finding that, Monty tells him nothing happens without Bryce giving the go ahead. Tyler should get over it.

Tyler goes to look for Bryce, believing he is now behind the assault on him. He finds Bryce in a motel, watching porn and smoking. Bryce tells him to shoot him as no one is going to miss him now. Tyler decides not to shoot him.

Clay starts to worry that Tyler will turn himself into the police, putting Clay in danger of having Bryce's murder pinned on him. Him and the rest of the group keep closer eye on Tyler and when Clay spots a paper bag on Tyler's person, he freaks out. Tyler starts to feel Clay's trust in him lessen.

Flashback. Jessica is working at the Crestmont theatre. Tyler has come in and watch her during her shifts, creeping her out so she would ask Alex to come in too during her shift. During Jessica's shift, a meeting is due to take place at a new club, Hands Off Our Bodies. The club is designed to disband the toxic culture at Liberty High and give support to survivors of sexual assault. Tyler joins the club as an ally however he doesn't reveal his own experience.

Present day. Clay heads over to Tyler's to find the gun. He comes across an image of Bryce's body on Tyler's laptop. Tyler discovers Clay in his room and insists that the image is not what it looks like. Tyler explains that he found Bryce like that in the river and made an anonymous call to the police. He then states that the only reason he was down at the river was because he wanted to end his life. Tyler thanks Clay because had he not seen Bryce's body that day, he wouldn't have made the decision to want to live and get better. Tyler then shows Clay what was actually in his backpack - an old camera that Clay had thought looked cool.

Flashback. Clay and Ani are in the beginning of a relationship. Ani was used to walking home however Clay didn't like the idea of her doing that at night so he gave her his old bike. Ani was so moved by Clay's kindness that she had cried.

Present Day. Justin insists that he will dispose of Tyler's last gun. Instead of throwing it away, Justin threatens his mum's ex-boyfriend, Seth. Seth tells him that if he gets shot, it will all be over for Justin.

It's revealed that Bryce wasn't shot but beaten to death. The police begin a search for a murder weapon in the river - the same river Clay dumped Tyler's guns. The police also find vials of an unknown substance in Bryce's car, news that freaks Alex out.
