"We also learn who the mole in the Dark Hearts is, Eryn (Margarita Levieva), a scrappy woman with long, beautiful hair and a snakebite piercing. She's also the partner of the Dark Hearts's leader, Jayson. She wants revenge on the gang for killing her lover, Robbie's brother, hence why she's working with Robbie's crew. The problem is that the Dark Hearts now know there's a mole. How long does she have to live? The odds aren't great."
"Freddie Frias is a rival Black gang leader whom they want to recruit to be on the lookout for their stolen fentanyl. He jokes about the "Halloween crew" that's been knocking off their houses. Instead of immediately agreeing to help them, he tells them a story. No white knucklehead wants to buy from him. Once, white drug dealers in the Dark Hearts even pissed all over him. If they want his help, he wants 50 percent or to piss all over them."
Task pulls back on its most compelling elements and focuses on exposition and setup for future developments. Robbie targets the Dark Hearts because they killed his brother, and Eryn is revealed as the mole inside the gang, driven by revenge and endangered now that the Dark Hearts suspect a leak. Robbie and Cliff attempt to move a fentanyl haul through Ray, a former cellmate. Gang dynamics complicate plans when rival leader Freddie Frias demands fifty percent or humiliation in exchange for assistance. The task force pursues Peaches' co-workers for leads, and Aleah confronts a harasser during their investigation.
