Stephanie's return creates trouble for Tim's relationship with Zoanne.
Jamie Harper teams up with Jason Bard and has corrupt superiors Marcus Wise and Roman Cavallo arrested for inciting gang violence.
Spoiler is shown to be in league with the false Red Robin, actually Robin's old enemy the General. The General tries to shoot Spoiler in the head, but she dodges and gets hit in the shoulder.
