'Guilt' Season 2's Finale Ships Everyone Out

We start the finale of Guilt where we left off at the end of the last episode, with Maggie, Jake, and Max in a warehouse. Maggie delivers a lovely monologue about family, with a flashback to Jake and Max parting ways before the elder McCall got arrested. Maggie said it broke her heart to watch, but she got over it. Max wonders why the Lynches were there before remembering they helped Jake set him up.

Jake returned to Edinburgh because the police notified him Max was hit by a bus. Max is annoyed he fell for it; however, Maggie is impatient for Max to reveal the details of his plan. Max explains the land is in Erin’s name; she is to pay him off. Only he can fix the deal, so he’s taken precautions. If something happens to him, there will be retaliation against the Lynches. Maggie says they’ve taken precautions, too; Max will go to Erin and say what they tell him as she departs. Left alone, Jake suggests Max should come with him to Chicago; he rejects Jake’s invitation, blaming everything that happened to the family on him. Jake leaves, with Roy taking him to the airport, bestowing the parting gift of a slash across the palm -- forcing him to hold the blade and get blood on the handle.

Max calls Erin, warning Maggie is heavily involved. Strategies are in place, and it’s just a race to the finish line. First, Max sees Davie (Simon Weir), the front for Phoenix, and offers to sell him Erin’s land for half market value. The man hesitates to cross Lynch, but Max says Roy will be in jail before word gets out. Davie asks if they have the church, and he lies that they do.
