03. Domestic Terror

Marcus finally breaks his fever, but the physical recovery brings an unhinged psychological collapse. Refusing to eat and trapped in the suffocating basement, a broken Marcus aggressively lashes out at Reggie, screaming that he should have let Corey pull the trigger in the woods. Marcus attacks Reggie, who refuses to fight back, as Marcus begs him to just end his life. Outside, Paul's federal manhunt turns Newark into a police zone, raiding Marcus’s old blocks and choking out the remains of their empire. Meanwhile, Daniel's little brother, Mikey, struggles with a paralyzing sense of guilt after seeing Marcus's face on television, leaving him deeply tempted to approach Paul and confess everything he knows just to get justice for his dead brother.
