Van and Deaq talk to Bree out in nature somewhere. Van says that they lied, and they aren't johns. They're pimps. Bree is confused. Van explains that they want to take over Nathan's operation. Bree is relieved, because she thought maybe they were cops. Van and Deaq laugh uneasily. Van asks Bree to help them out. Bree refuses, because she doesn't want to take Nathan on. She just wants to take the money and run. Deaq starts yelling at Bree and Van pulls him off. Bree thanks them for saving her earlier, but says she's done doing what others say. Van and Deaq walk off to have a private conversation. Van says that the plan is not working. Deaq says that she'll soon figure out that they're not pimps, because a pimp would kick her ass. Van says that if they can turn Bree, Nathan is a goner. Yeah, we got that when you said it, like, three commercial breaks ago. Deaq says that if they hand Bree off to Billie at this point, she'll clam up and then run off to Mexico. Can't they threaten her with prison time or something? Deaq hates not having a plan. Van thinks they got Bree into a safe position, so they did their jobs. Deaq thinks Bree should be begging to help them because they are good pimps. Van asks if Deaq has a plan. Deaq says that Bree won't cooperate because she thinks she has a way out, using Giddings's money, so they need to make her think she has no way out. In the background, Bree chain-smokes. Deaq explains that they should make Bree think that Giddings won't come through with the dough, and Van will turn her over to Nathan. Then when Billie swoops in, Bree will testify because she has no other viable option.
Van and Deaq pull up to a restaurant somewhere with Bree in the back seat. Via split screen, Deaq says that they have to be cold, and asks Van if he's "pimp enough to get the job done on her." Isn't the whole "pimp" thing kind of played out? Although I guess if you're talking about, like, actual pimps, it's a different story. Deaq walks into the restaurant and finds Nathan sitting alone at a table. He turns and asks Tommy if his chest is okay. Deaq sits in the booth with Nathan and claims that he has something that will hurt Nathan.
Outside, Van goes back into pimp voice as he calls Giddings and says that Bree will be calling Giddings shortly, and Giddings needs to tell her that he's not giving her the money, and then Van will leave Giddings alone. Giddings hangs up and takes a swig from a flask. Inside, Deaq tells Nathan that Bree sold him out and told Deaq how she and Giddings bugged Nathan's house and set him up. Bree calls Giddings to ask him to send the money someplace else. Giddings says he won't send her the money, and he doesn't want to see her again. Inside, Deaq says that since he's confirmed that Bree knows nothing about Deaq's business, Nathan can have her. Deaq tells Nathan that Bree is outside. Giddings tells Bree that he can't help her and she should stop calling him, and hangs up. Van sees Deaq and Nathan walking out, so he grabs Bree by the hair and pulls her out of the car and pushes her toward Nathan and Tommy. Tommy grabs Bree and wrestles her toward the car. Deaq and Van get in their car and pull out. Van's all sad as he says that Billie promised to signal them when she has Bree in custody.
