It's disappointing that the ongoing season of Mayans M.C. will be its final run, but with three episodes in, it is safe to say that viewers are in for a brilliant conclusion. This show is a spinoff of the Sons of Anarchy. It has guns, drugs, motorcycles, gangsters, and a ton of drama.

This episode, titled Do You Hear the Rain, saw Emily asking EZ to get her a car which can not be tracked. She wanted to use it to escape with her son because she was feeling threatened by the dangerous Miguel.

This episode was directed by Danny Pino and written by Vivian Tse. It aired on May 31, 2023, on FX.


Mayans M.C. season 5 episode 3 recap: Why did Katie get fired?

The episode began with the Mayans wrecking a secure facility and stealing a truck full of supplies for making drugs. They even kidnapped a guy named Elio, the drug maker. Emily was trying to escape with her son from a grocery store. However, she failed because Miguel had a bodyguard and a nanny accompanying them.

At the police station, Katie got yelled at by ATF agent Melissa Lydecker for going to see Creeper in prison. She was fired after Melissa confiscated her gun and batch.
