Later, Coty personally murders Gavin so he will never talk again. Distraught and alienated with Harry, Grace attempts suicide. She continues to have encounters with the young boy Peter who seems to know more about what is going on then Grace does. Meanwhile, Kreutzer sends Harry and Paige to Kyoto, Japan to talk business where he persuades them to find a mysterious "Go chip". Harry is taken and tortured by mysterious contacts over what he knows about Wild Palms. Back in L.A., Grace is visited by Eileen Whitehope, Gavin's widow, who also alerts Grace to a danger in her own home. Elsewhere, Chickie Levitt is imprisoned by Chap Starfall, an erstwhile pop star reduced to lounge singer status until the Wild Palms group "revives" him, where he tries to find out more about Chickie's work. Grace confronts Josie about the fact about Coty not being her biological son. Also, Harry visits Eli and learns more about the Friends group. Written by Larry B. See less
