	— Barry and Rafe

The Heist is the second episode of the second season of Outer Banks. It is the twelfth episode of the series overall.

Synopsis

With time running out, John B and Sarah strike an uneasy bargain, while Kiara, JJ and Pope search for evidence that could implicate Ward and Rafe.

Plot

Sarah sets off the water sprinklers. This allows her to interfere with the phone signal and nicely block her father from discovering that she and John B are alive. Sarah and John B are safe for the time being.

Kie, Pope, and JJ record Gavin and Ward’s meeting. With the meeting quickly turning heated, Ward shoots Gavin in a bid to save his son from imprisonment. Whilst all this occurs, the gun falls down a drain, and Kie screams out to Ward that he’s a murderer. Forced to flee from Ward, the recorder gets broken. The trio argues who is to blame, but had Kie not shouted "Murderer", they wouldn’t have been forced to rush off.

Sarah offers Terrance and Cleo 10 million each to help her and John B escape from the island. With nobody in sight, the cops are unsurprisingly finding it hard to believe claims that Ward has killed Gavin. With the recording of no use, it seems that all hope may be lost. That is until Pope states that they could get the gun from the drain.

Ward gets Rafe to help get rid of Gavin’s body. Sarah calls her sister, but her stepmother Rose is listening.

Sarah talks through the plan. Cleo explains how she became involved with Terrance. Her father left, her granny died, and it led to her meeting Terrance. She advises Sarah not to trust him.

JJ, Pope and Kie search for the gun in the north drain. However, the gun hasn’t washed out with the trash. Kie is left to crawl the drain and retrieve it. But they’re not the only ones searching for the gun! Rafe has reunited with his old buddy/enemy Barry. Hearing Kie’s screams from inside the drain, Rafe instructs Barry to flush her out. Knowing doing such a thing would kill her, Barry refuses. Rafe doesn’t mind and he flushes the water.

With the water flushing through, Pope and JJ rush to a manhole and save Kie from certain death. Climbing out, Kie has the gun! Taking the gun to the Sheriff, they are quickly thrown out of his office. Despite this, the Sheriff searches the tracking number and learns that the gun belongs to Ward.

In the Bahamas, Ward’s joined by Rafe. He shows his son all the gold he has, stating that there’s half a billion which saved the family from near ruin. Stubby watches as both Ward and Rafe leave with the gold. They drive straight into a trap as young children trap their vehicles and slash tires. Spotting a way out, Ward and Rafe continue with their journey.

Terrance and Cleo hold Ward and Rafe at gunpoint. Ward catches Sarah running to the truck. Whilst he is overwhelmed with happiness, Rafe is not so much. He goes to shoot John B, misses, and John B drives off with Sarah. With Ward’s escort soon chasing after John B and Sarah, they soon lose them. Sarah reveals that she has been shot.
