Recap of Episode 2

The previous episode of City on a Hill Season 3, titled A Program of Complete Disorder, was directed by Christoph Schrewe and written by J.M. Holmes. It aired on Sunday, August 7, and featured Jackie driving to work where he tried to find out what really happened to Dominique, but failed.

He then approached two FBI agents and helped them with one of his old cases and since everything was transactional for Jackie Rohr, he used this exchange to get the information he was seeking. Meanwhile, Victoria shut herself in her room before making an escape with Moustafa's help.

Ward was still at his father’s home and was unable to accept his father’s decision of not wanting to seek treatment. He fought Louie about his penchant for going after police officers and Franklin intervened. He told his sons that they were so wrapped up in their own worlds that they did not even consider that they both could be right.

He urged Louie to think about the whole city and country, not just his immediate circle, and understand that there were problems with the establishment. Franklin then turned his focus to Ward and told him that it was hubris on his part to think that he could usher in real change in Boston.

On the other hand, at the initiative where Jenny volunteered, she kept bumping into Doyle. Doyle had no idea about the history between Jenny and her father and concluded that Jenny must be lacking a good relationship with the man. Much to Jenny’s horror, Doyle showed up at her doorstep with her father one day and invited himself in. He prowled around Jenny’s house as if he owned the place which made Jenny angry and attacked him, forcing Doyle to intervene.

Meanwhile, Siobhan continued to struggle with her trauma as she prepared to take on the powerful company running Big Dig. One night, she woke up from a nightmare and tried to reach out to Ward for comfort before realizing that he was still at his father’s home. Ward tried changing his father’s mind about treatment but failed again and he later died that night.

Elsewhere in City on a Hill Season 3 Episode 2, Chris Caysen attacked Rick Dunleavy. Victoria’s whereabouts became the prevalent mystery of the episode after she ran away from her home. Jackie visited the boy at his college and threatened him but got nothing of importance, making him realize that Moustafa really loved Victoria.

Later, during a conversation with Letitia, Jackie realized that he had made a fundamental error in his investigation. Dominique was Victoria’s only friend besides Moustafa and it made sense that she would be at Dominique’s apartment.

Jackie brought both the girl and the evidence and the wine bottle that Sinclair brought with him when he went to see Dominique before her death, back to his employer. Towards the end of City on a Hill Season 3 Episode 2, Sinclair gave him a BMW car to buy Jackie's silence.
