Jacob, Paul and Emma huddle up around a laptop and check out what the world thinks of them. Jacob doesn't like the photo of him that the news is using. Emma asks if they've heard from Raines, and Paul mentions the dead sorority girls. "Score for the village idiot," Jacob says. Emma asks Paul to go watch Joey while she humps Jacob. He leaves, reluctantly, and Emma asks Jacob if she's sure Paul is straight, since he's acting so jealous. Jacob says he's just having difficulty adjusting, since for so many years it was just the two of them. Emma says that this is what Joe wanted. Yeah, I'm sure Carroll's primary goal was to get Emma a cute pixie haircut and a boyfriend.
Flashback. Emma, visiting Carroll in jail, asks what he thinks of her hair. She says her mom thinks it makes her look like a boy or a lesbian. Carroll says her mother doesn't understand, and he likes it. Her hair is really cute. Kind of like Winona Ryder's when she was dating Matt Damon. He says he knows someone else who might like it, and she asks if he wants to set her up. Clearly she's angling for a jailhouse marriage here and a conjugal visit that might or might not get her eyes severed from her head. Carroll says he loves when she visits, but she needs to make more friends.
So then Emma and Jacob met in a café, and it was crazy cult love at first sight. Her contribution to his life (or maybe it was Paul's influence?) seems to be getting him to stop combing his hair like a Lego man. Back in the present, when Jacob has discovered hair product, they make out on a couch.
At Emma's old house, Riley says he has nine different people's handwriting and four people's prints. The masked man was living there, they think, from the unmade bed and reasonably fresh food. Ryan is fixating on a clipping on the wall about Claire filing for divorce from Carroll.
Flashback. Claire opens a bottle of wine and asks Ryan if it's okay that she's happy to be divorced. (I dunno. I have known some jubilant divorced ladies. And none of them were married to serial killers. That I know of.) She hands him a glass of wine and toasts to being a single lady, then asks Ryan to kiss her. They banter flirtily about how she's sure she wants him to kiss her, like, she's really, really sure, and then they kiss.
