PLOT[]
Hailey befriends her next door neighbor, a military veteran named Matt who suffers from PTSD from his time in the war while also working as a security guard alongside his friend Lee to protect an arrogant rapper. One night while Hailey's mom, Abby is gone, Matt helps come over to release a spider from Hailey's apartment as he stays over to keep her company and bonds further with her. Matt helps Hailey with homework and even buys her new clothes after witnessing her being bullied in the hallway by other teenagers for her outfit. Hailey tells Matt that her and her mom are in hiding from her father, an ex-convict named Vance who has been tracking them down causing them to constantly move around while Matt tells Hailey how he struggles with PTSD after killing an enemy during the war which was witnessed by the man's daughter. Hailey tells him that a good heart deserves a fresh start as Abby angrily throws out Matt, telling him that he is a bad man and forbids the two from hanging out.
Matt goes to work security for the MC but decides to abandon him, wanting to follow Hailey's advice while refusing to be security when all the MC does is pick fights with random strangers as Lee also abandons the MC. Lee drives Matt back to his apartment, where he gives him $1,000 as he knows he is struggling and wanting to look out for him as a brother. Matt hears commotion in Hailey and Abby's apartment, witnessing Vance trying to attack the two women. Matt fights Vance and has the upper hand at first until Vance gets him on the ground, attempting to strangle him. Hailey hits Vance with a plate as Matt knocks Vance to the ground just as the police arrive and arrest him. Abby apologizes for the way she treated Matt, saying that he truly is a good man and thanks him for his help. Matt gives her the $1,000 that Lee had given him to help her with moving though he thinks that she won't have to worry about Vance tracking them down anymore now that he's arrested. Abby decides not to move as she feels safer living next to Matt and the episode ends with the three of them dancing along to "Happy" in the apartment.
