Willoughby brings Mildred in for questioning after she injures her dentist in an altercation in his clinic. Mildred is also visited by her abusive ex-husband Charlie, who hurtfully blames her for their daughter's death. Dixon is vexed by Mildred's lack of respect for his authority, and counters by threatening Red, who rented the billboards to her, and arresting her friend and co-worker Denise on trivial marijuana-possession charges.
