Tensions with Diamond and a lack of options push Angel to make a big sacrifice for her family, where she learns the game of survival behind bars while entrusting her foster sisters to Dutch.

Angel is forced to protect Sheree, Milk and Rain from Detective Monroe and other dangers as Diamond finds a way to ward off social services.

Angel comes into her own when she meets Diamond, a ruthless hustler who teaches Angel how to survive and fight back against her abusers -- but that vengeance comes at a high cost.
