Alicia has been hunting for her son Rob’s killer all season. While she doesn’t know who murdered him, she’s now targeting Reg, believing he’s responsible. The finale will reveal whether she succeeds in taking him down or if her plan backfires.
A Shocking Return for Nuck
The episode’s official synopsis teases that “a person from the past shakes up Nuck’s world.” Speculation points to Roselyn Perry, the widow of crime boss Douda, who Nuck killed in Season 6. If she returns, she could seek revenge, putting Nuck in grave danger.
