They have a day of paintball and skydiving planned, but the birthday boy doesnt seem too interested.

Hes a serious party pooper, huh?

Once theyre there, they wait for instructions, and Pope gets on Bazs case about calling Catherine.

Yeah, those two dont haveanybad blood brewing, right?

She walks in cool and confident, and they all realize Smurf was testing them.

J, on the other hand, is making a connection with Catherine.

When he gets there, though, he finds her overdosing on the floor.

So imagine Craigs surprise when he gets a phone call from a groggy Ren later that night.

She wants Craig to find whoever took off with her stuff and lay a brutal beating on him.

Craig buys him some alone time with a stripper, and things get weirdquick.

Pope is coming more and more unglued with each episode.

Js venting about the familys lack of focus on his dead mother, and Pope seems to agree.

Dead To Me ends on a note of instability (duh).

She keeps J close, though, telling him he can stay in the house with Nicky.

Quiet intimidation is Smurfs game, and it seems to be working.
