'Average Joe': High Stakes and Hidden Secrets

As tensions rise in episode seven with Angela's captivity and a shocking revelation comes to light, Joe faces a dire choice between loyalty and love.

Touch is preparing to get out of the hospital when he gets a call from Joe telling him that he got the money. Joe said Leon wasn’t picking up the phone. We know what, but they don’t yet. In case you forgot, the last time we saw them, Angela was in Arina’s trunk and Jen found Leon at the wheel of his car, severely injured.

Joe finds Cathy at the unfinished home they’ve been staying at to give her the news and show her the proof. Cathay points out that it’s only $1 million but Dimitri said Teddy stole $10 million and she wants to find the rest of it. Realistically, they will need it because what they have right now isn’t enough to run. Joe thinks they should be happy with what they got but Jen busts up the fun with the bad news about Leon and Angela. The good news is, she has Leon with her and he’s obviously hurt, and might have a concussion, but he’s not going to die.

'Average Joe': Joe Learns A New Term That Saves His Life

Angela, on the other hand, is a different story. Nicolai and Arina have her tied up and are interrogating her. She’s a tough cookie, though. She’s not complying with Arina’s demands for info about who killed Dimitri and they torture her.

Touch finally gets home and finds Pam there because she’s putting pieces together and wants to know why Touch has been so shady. She handcuffs him and uses his drugs as leverage—because you know he has a habit—to try to get him to talk. He’s tight-lipped at first, but we’ll have to see how long he can hold out talking to her because Pam is determined af. She’s going to wait until he starts going through withdrawals and can’t think straight enough to withhold information.

Joe finally gets the call from Nicolai that his wife is in danger and that causes him to reveal that he killed Dimitri. Joe asks for him to trade his wife for him and that he’ll show him how he buried Dimitri’s body. Nicolai agrees to meet up. Leon, Cathy and Jen try to talk him out of it but he doesn’t see any other way to get his wife back.

Back to Pam and Touch. Pam asks for his help because she wants Nicolai and everything he ever loved to burn. He seems to give her a non-verbal answer that means no, but we’ll see because they need Pam’s help. Plus, she got a hold of Touche’s phone and a text from Joe and crew comes in about Operation Angela. By this point, Touch has passed out so while Pam knows they’re mixed up with Nicolai for sure, she’s flying blind because Touch didn’t give her any info she could work with.

As Nicolai, Arina and hostage Angela wait for Joe in a diner, Jen shows up when she shouldn’t have and complicates an already terrible situation. She says she has to tell Angela something and we don’t hear what she says but Arina then snatches her up and takes her away. Jen calls Joe crying and says she had to do what she did because it was the only way to save them.  Nicolai tells Joe to get his wife from the diner because she’s not in good shape and we end the episode with Angela revealing that he has to save Jen because she’s pregnant.
