Daisy tells Charlene that when she was cleaning up the blood at the scene of her husband’s murder, she found a little cross figurine. Charlene found one too. They keep the crosses on them. They are confused because their husbands didn’t own any crosses. They wonder if the dead Black man left them there.
Detective Hind drives with Ed and Jim to Money. They agree that they all joined the force so they could avoid having only white people be the only people licensed to carry weapons as law enforcement agents. A Mississippi police officer pulls them over. When they show the officer their badges, he says he should have just shot them. They continue with their drive.
