In Black Snow season 2 episode 5, James and Sam find Zoe’s unsolicited pictures on Sean's laptop. They dig into his connections with Sapphire Futures, a shell company he set up at his mother's behest. The laptop also contains records of Sean's fraudulent bookkeeping in a password-protected folder, which can get Julie in trouble with the law. She uses her connections to steal the laptop from police custody and destroys it in the microwave.

James informs Nadja that the forensic team has confirmed the human remains belong to Zoe, leaving her heartbroken. She later reconnects with her estranged son, Seb.

In the flashback scenes, Zoe discovers that Julie bribed a councilor to get the Mont Vista land rezoned from rural to residential, which resulted in Cody's family getting evicted from their home. She threatens to expose Julie if she does not allow her to delete her na*ed pictures from Sean’s laptop, but Julie refuses to comply. Zoe receives her inheritance money and leaves $10,000 to Cody’s mother, Mandy, to help her escape her abusive partner, Brad.

James comes face-to-face with his brother Richie, but he runs away in fear. He later confides in Dr. Nina that he used to lock his brother up in a cupboard to protect him from their father’s anger.

In Black Snow season 2 episode 6, Zoe may decide to confront her father about his affair with Gita or reveal the truth to her mother herself.

The finale will shed light on the events that led to Zoe's murder. Her anger at Sean over the pictures and Julie over the Mont Vista land could have led to a heated confrontation, which ended with Zoe's death. It is also possible that Joseph or someone else ended up taking her life by accident.

Furthermore, James will certainly run into Richie again, and hopefully, the brothers will be able to move past their troubled childhood and make amends with each other.
