Previously on "Claws"...

We set the Coombses up to be killed.

No, we set them up to go to jail.

Listen, You guys, we didn't know any of this was gonna happen, okay?

But it did.

Okay, and now Jenn has to live with the fact

that her husband is a murderer.

He killed my foster parents.

Okay, but Jenn doesn't know that. Right.

And she better never find out.

How is your boyfriend, Desna?

His name is Roller, right?

I didn't know you knew him.

Roller: Look, listen to me.

You gotta go to your art show.

I shall go to Art South Beach,

Mr. Emerson, with you as my muse.

Roller: Miss Honeychurch, I...

- Des! - What?

Oh, shit.

Detective Arlene Branch.

Nice to meet you.

That's those real-estate people?

Why'd you do that?

Dean: They... they hurt me when I was little.

Desna said one day karma was gonna get them,

and karma did.

Dean: Des... Des, I-I-I need your help.

Uh, my... The answer is yes.

You need to put some clothes on.

No, my... my performance piece at Art South Beach

dictates that I be nude,

and... and so I need to know if my body

is up to artistic standards.

Are my pectorals symmetrical? Your what?

Des, my chest.

But... Yes, Dean, it's fine.

Yeah, no. Oh, what about my glutes?

Yes, all your shit is poppin', now cover it up!

Ahh. What are you doing?

Uh, No... nothing. I'm just taking, uh...

just taking the edge off, you know,

because of the... the, um...

'Cause of me, the Georgia guys

are coming in on the new clinics,

so I thought I deserved a reward.

Said the crackhead.

To the alcoholic.

I get you a big house,

more money than you ever dreamed of,

and you're treating Desna like shit?

What's your problem?

Desna killed Roller.

She set up the Coombses to take the fall,

and you killed the wrong people.

Jenn!

Desna: Jenn, please, let me just talk to you.

- What, Des? - Listen to me.

What could you possibly say?

Listen, Roller kept treating me like shit,

telling me to stop asking him

for the money that he promised me,

and I snapped.

- I can't believe you killed him. - I thought I did,

and the next thing I know,

he was on top of me, beating the life out of me.

And Virginia shot him to save my life.

And... and... and I knew if Uncle Daddy found out,

he would kill both of us,

and he was getting closer every day.

So you just set up two innocent people.

They were monsters.

Dean was...

he was a sweet, weird, innocent kid.

And the shit they did to him?

He let them do it to him

so they wouldn't do it to me.

He was protecting me, and he didn't tell me.

- I didn't know. - Yeah, but after all we been through,

you could have told me.

You're supposed to trust me.

I didn't want you to live the rest of your life

lying to Bryce over what I did.

I'm sorry.

I love you.

Honey, please,

please tell me you can forgive me.

I don't know, Des.

Listen, um, I got you this.

It's one of those, uh, nose clamps, you know,

'cause all the best-dressed mermaids

in Weeki Wachee are wearin' 'em, girl,

come on now.

Thanks.

You know I can't be a mermaid, right?

I know that life can be hard,

and having a dream can pull you through the worst of it.

Is that why you pretend to be other people?

You need to remember something,

when you get older,

you deserve a good person

who treats you with love and respect.

So do you.

All right.

Excuse me? Shall we?

We need to recommit to our sobriety.

We've got too much to lose.

We'll go to a meeting in the morning.

And I'm gonna reconnect.

I'm not gonna let all this Uncle Daddy shit

get in the way of us.

And, hey, you have to talk to me

if you have something you need to.

Excuse me, Clay?

Is now a good time for us to talk?

I mean, maybe we could...

What's on your mind?

You and me,

we spent our whole lives being told we were nothing,

that we would never be nothing,

And that we should be happy

with our little piece of nothing, hmm?

We both had to scrape, fight, and pray our way

to creating better lives for our family.

You did that.

And I want to do the same.

I want to create a better life for me and Dean.

I just...

I want to stop washing your money.

Well, if you ain't gonna do it, who's gonna do it?

Toby.

You know he's got the brains for it.

Well, it would give him something to do

other than ask me how his titties look all the time.

You got it.

You know, just remember that, uh,

new businesses fail all the time,

so if things don't work out,

I'm here for you.

Okay, okay.

Just 'cause he said no this time

doesn't mean that he won't say yes the next time.

That's true.

I'm out.

- What? - He let me out.

Oh!

Yes! Oh! Oh!

Can y'all believe that? Oh, my God.

Oh, no.

our ass-kicking business maven

and loving mother protector

to all of us in this island of broken toys.

I am.

I can't say that stuff anymore.

Um, My name is Gladys Coleman Pirette.

I started working with, um,

the pubic hair of incarcerated women

not because it's controversial,

not because it was a comment on

the, uh, patriarchy desiring to police female sexuality,

but, uh, because I thought it was pretty.

And curly.

And I-I-I liked the way

that it... it catches the light, so...

I'll be right here, okay?

Right here.

Okay.
