The woman, named Angela, was Malcolm's high school sweetheart who left him heartbroken, and Eddie isn't too thrilled to see her back in their lives.
As they try to figure out if Angela is the culprit, Malcolm starts to remember his past with her and wonders if he should give her another chance. Meanwhile, Eddie becomes increasingly paranoid and suspicious of Angela, convinced that she's only there to cause trouble. Tensions rise between the two friends as they try to navigate the situation, with Malcolm wanting to trust Angela and Eddie determined to prove that she's a thief.
At the same time, the bar is facing financial trouble and they desperately need the missing money to stay afloat. The pressure is on for Malcolm and Eddie to discover the truth about Angela before it's too late. But as they dig deeper, they realize that things are not as they seem and that the situation is more complicated than they initially thought.

Along the way, they also run into a few other familiar faces from their past, including a former high school classmate who has recently become a successful rapper.
Ultimately, Malcolm and Eddie come to realize that they have been holding onto grudges from the past that are preventing them from moving forward with their lives. They learn to forgive and forget the mistakes of their youth and focus on the present, which ends up leading to a surprising twist in the final moments of the episode.
