Tell Me Lies, Tell Me Stupid Little Lies

Red calls Vincent from Chicago with good news and bad. The bad is that the bosses want to double the skim, to ease their nerves on how things are going down there. The good is that as long as "the sandwich" keeps coming back, they won't replace Rizzo. Typical management! Don't fill the position and expect everyone else to take up the slack!

At the sheriff's office, Catherine wants to question Savino: "The longer we wait, the more time he has to cover his tracks," she says, but Ralph doesn't figure Savino will just give it up or anything. Unlike most suspects? Ralph says Savino talks a lot, but doesn't say anything, which is why, I suppose, we've had fewer scenes of the two of them going jaw-to-jaw lately.

Dixon comes in, having tracked the phone number to a shipping company that went belly-up, so he and Ralph leave to go check out the address. As soon as they're gone, Catherine picks up the phone and calls Savino's office.

At the shipping company, Ralph and Dixon find a bunch of stolen cars and a bunch of mechanics who scatter as soon as they see the law arriving, but they do manage to flush out Eddie, which makes sense since he's the only other person involved we've seen. Although I'd kind of like to check back in with the redhead from the garage.

Back at the hotel, Vincent's got a box of cash and jewels that belonged to Rizzo that he gives to Mia and says the rest of his things are being boxed up for her to do with what she will. As for the job, she notes that with her dad out of the way, he's got free rein at the Savoy so expansion can't be far off, plus he'll be running the Tumbleweed. So she'll run the count room, but she also wants to be head of casino operations. She knows Chicago wants twice the skim, so he can't afford any mistakes and needs someone he can trust. "Now, more than ever, you need me," she says. "Now, more than ever"? How about "At the end of the day"? Does Vincent need her "going forward"?

Eddie denies messing with Pete's car and says Pete really didn't want to have anything to do with the car theft ring, but he needed money. Eddie doesn't know what for, though.

Savino shows up at the sheriff's office, having been summoned by Catherine, and if he and Jack want to keep things quiet, maybe they should stop staring at each other so weirdly. Anyway, Savino pleasantly tells Catherine Rizzo was a friend and he'll do anything to help, which is why he's (pretending to be) offended when she tells him he's a suspect. She says even though he thwarted her earlier investigation, his "day of reckoning" is still coming." She threatens to get word back to Chicago that Laura was her informant and it disgusts Savino that cops would... well, you know, act like gangsters. "Any time you want to confess your sins, you let me know, Mr. Savino," says Catherine. Savino says she doesn't have the guts to make his kids orphans, and stomps out. Well, that was useful!
