Complete story — includes the ending

Before Gloria can resign, Dollard calls her after finding her number in the file and explains that Varga's infiltration of Stussy Lots is actually a tax fraud scheme. As Varga forces Emmit to sign Stussy Lots over, he gets a call from Nikki setting a meeting spot for him to get his records back, unaware that she has already sent them. Emmit grabs a gun, but Varga easily dispatches him and leaves him on the floor with the stamp stuck to his forehead. Wrench ambushes and massacres Varga's men at the drop point while Varga escapes up an elevator shaft. Emmit goes to Stussy Lots when he wakes up but finds that it has been sold to Goldfarb, who was working with Varga. Nikki confronts him, but they are noticed by a police officer. She and the officer shoot and kill each other, and Emmit flees to his wife's house, reconciling with her. Gloria admits to her son that she cannot explain why Ennis died, but unanswered questions are the nature of the world and people who love each other need to stick together. Five years later, Sy has woken up from his coma paralyzed, while Emmit has pled guilty to tax fraud and is given probation, having possibly kept Varga's money. At a family dinner, he is killed by Wrench. Gloria, now with the DHS, is called to interview Varga as he is caught flying in from Belgium. Varga insists to her that human beings have no value beyond money and that the past can be altered, neither of which Gloria believes. She promises him that he will go to jail, while he is confident that he will be let go. They then sit in silence.
