"He seems sincere enough, like he is really sorry and really willing to do anything to make it work." Hailey starts talking about Jay out of the blue.

"Maybe I should give him a second chance." A few seconds later she adds.

Voight immediately pulls off to the side and stops the car, he then turns to Hailey.

"You want to give him another chance? Another chance to do what? Leave you? Hurt you? Make you cry?" Voight is clearly unhappy with the idea.

"I'm trying to look at the bigger picture. I'm trying to look beyond…." Hailey then gets cut off.

"The bigger picture is that he made you a lifelong promise and then left after a few months." Voight tone borders on the absurd.

Hailey thinks about it.

Voight is right.

Jay may not have left her, as in divorce her for another woman, but he did leave and not even talk to her for over a year. So, he did leave her.

She even became convinced that he is never coming back.

Hailey then wonders, what would have happened if Voight did not take her in like he did. What would have happened if Voight did not take her under his wing and look after her?

Would she still be sulking around the apartment, crying, and drinking all night long, slowly languishing away, both mentally and physically. Because of Jay?

She remembers how she ended up in the hospital that day she passed out in the office. She woke up in the hospital and then the doctor expressly told her that she must take better care of herself. And Hailey knows that if she went home by herself, back to her apartment again, things would have remained the same.

But it did not remain the same because Voight took her in, and now, she is all better.

If she was still on her own and Jay returned, she probably would have thrown herself at his feet because she would have been so weak by the time he showed up.

But that is not the case now, she is strong, she can think clearly.

Thanks to Voight.

So, she is willing take his advice on the situation he saved her from.

"You're right." Hailey nods and then looks over to Voight.

Voight then places his hand on Hailey arm and gives a squeeze.

"You want to go to the diner?" Voight asks as he pulls into traffic again.

"I'd rather get home and get this over with." Even though it is not evening yet, Hailey wants to get home and wait for those papers to arrive.

"What if he doesn't show? What is he doesn't want to sign the papers?" Hailey becomes anxious.

"Hailey, I can think of about 20 ways to make him sign those papers, so don't worry about it. Even if it is not tonight, it will happen." Voight assures her.

Hailey recalls how she told Jay that if those papers are not signed by tonight that she will tell Voight that he can do whatever he wants to.

She may not be on good terms with Jay. Yes, she is angry, furious even, but it won't sit well with her if he ends up somewhere in a ditch stabbed to death. Even worse if that happens because of her.

"I will deal with him from now on, so don't worry about it." Voight looks over to Hailey and can see she is contemplating something.

"I just don't want to hear that his mangled body has been found somewhere in a back alley." Hailey decides just to speak her mind. Just like Voight told her before, to speak to him about anything and not just to assume.

Voight looks over to Hailey to get her attention. "I'm not planning on killing him." Voight's tone is serious.

"Key word, 'planning'." Before Hailey never would have pushed back like this with Voight because that is dangerous grounds, but lately she feels like he will let her get away with murder. Metaphorically speaking.

Voight looks over to Hailey again and then without responding, he looks back to the traffic again.

"If I was going to kill him, I would have tracked him down the first day he showed up on my doorstep and made him dig his own grave before I put a bullet in the back of his head." Voight's tone clearly conveys that he is as serious as can get.

Hailey completely understands that Voight means every single word that just came out of his mouth.

Some silence passes.

"I can, however, make his life a living hell." Voight then adds a short while later.

Hailey does not respond, she knows that to be very true.

"I'm not hungry." Hailey comments as they pull up at a drive-thru.

But Voight proceeds to get food for two anyway.

When they arrive home, Voight takes a seat at the dining room table and eats his food while Hailey is nervously moving through the house. Then she is in her room, then on the couch, then pacing around.

"Hailey, come sit down." Voight gestures to the chair across from him.

"I can't sit still right now." Hailey refuses and continues walking around.

"I just don't want to make a mistake, that's all." Hailey says as she sits down anyway.

"He did it to you once, he will do it again." Voight calmly responds after chewing his food.

"What if he doesn't?" Hailey makes an argument for Jay.

"Hailey, he left you, alone, to cope by yourself. He didn't even keep contact with you." Voight's tone reveals his displeasure with Jay.

Hailey looks down at the table as she thinks about it.

"You couldn't eat, you couldn't sleep, and he was off somewhere not caring about that."

Before the discussion continues, there's a knock on the door.

Voight then gets up.

Hailey looks as Voight makes his way to the door and then she gets up and steps closer. Out of sight, but she wants to hear what happens.

The door opens Jay is on the other side.

"I just want to talk to Hailey one last time." Jay tries one last time, but he feels that he will be unsuccessful, especially since it is Voight that answered the door.

"She doesn't want to talk to you or see you ever again." Voight's tone is cold.

Voight then holds out his hand for Jay to give him the papers.

Jay stares at his hand for a moment and then he admits defeat as he then hands over the folder.

Opening the folder, Voight just makes sure that it is signed, because if he is going to have hunt down Jay tomorrow, he is really going to do something he may or may not regret.

After seeing Jay's signature, Voight closes the folder and is just about to close the door when Jay stops him.

"Tell Hailey to keep the ring."

"It's in the bottom of the river." And with that Voight closes the door and leaves Jay standing on his doorstep in the dimly falling snow.

Voight then finds Hailey waiting around the corner and then hands her the folder.

Hailey hugs the folder as she stays standing where she is.

"You ok?" Voight asks as he stops making his way back to the dining room table.

"Yeah." Hailey nods.

"Are you sure?" Voight asks at the lack of the response that he got.

Hailey then goes and sits down at the dining room table with Voight and then opens up the folder so that she can see it and let reality sink in.

"Are you kidding me!" The next moment Hailey exclaims in anger.

"What?" Voight looks up.

"Jay signed but he says that I filed for divorce under coercion and that he signed under duress."

Voight stares at the papers that are lying in front of Hailey.

"Now I'm going to kill him."

Hailey closes her eyes as she takes a deep breath. That is why Jay said to keep the ring.

"Where is he staying?" Hailey gets up, fully intent on going to sort this out right now.

"Hailey, you don't want to do that." Voight does not think it's such a good idea.

"Why not?" She asks upset.

"It's just not a good idea." There is a possibility that this whole thing may just blow up if Hailey goes and faces him in anger. Hailey has always had a good grip on herself but when it comes to Jay she lets him through her tough exterior and then she crumbles.

"I promise not to put a bullet in his head." Hailey sighs.

"It's not him I'm protecting." Voight then gets up and steps closer to her.

Hailey lets her head dip to the side as she smiles at Voight. She knows that he has her best interests at heart, but she can't see this being resolved unless she gets hands on about it.

"Sarge I'll be fine. I'll keep you on speed dial." Hailey tries again.

"You already have me on speed dial." Voight counters.

Hailey smiles again, she knows there is a way to get him to budge, she must just find it.

"You can take me there and wait for me in the car. And if I haven't returned within 5 minutes you can come in all guns blazing." Hailey assures Voight.

"Hailey, he is living with another woman." Voight then just comes right out and says it. He wanted to keep it from Hailey because it will upset her.

There is silence as Hailey thinks about what Voight just said.

"You're right, it's not a good idea." Hailey then goes and sits on the couch and turns on the tv, leaving Voight standing there watching her.

He was right, that definitely upset her. But he would rather have told her now than her showing up and that woman opens the door.

After Voight takes his plate to the kitchen and returns, he finds Hailey softly crying on the couch.

Something pulls at Voight's heart, he feels like he is the one that made her cry and he didn't mean to do that.

Voight takes a seat next to her. "I'm sorry."

Hailey turns and leans towards Voight and he takes the cue as he wraps his arms around her and holds her tight in a hug.
