It’s the last day before the showdown, and both Harvey and Trish have to face some hard truths. For Trish, she is starting to see that her brother may not have been the perfect young man she thought he was. For Harvey, it’s that there isn’t as much in his life to settle as he thought there might be. And for both, it’s the very real fact that the town they call home has very little regard for either of them. This penultimate issue sets up everything before the real final showdown begins.
