While investigating the Littleton "stick up boys," two brothers who murder and rob drug dealers, Allison develops an extreme sensitivity to light. Scanlon offers Allison sunglasses from the police lost and found and when Allison puts them on, she starts seeing strange floating numbers in front of everyone's foreheads that she realizes are the exact number of days each person has to live. Allison is worried because Scanlon's number has changed and now says he only has two days to live. Allison has a vision that a dirty cop, Aaron Carver, will try to kill Scanlon because Scanlon has a notebook of information tying Carver to the Littletons. Allison is able to warn Scanlon about Carver, but they still have no proof of Carver's intentions. However, it doesn't matter because at the police station Allison sees a floating "1" above Carver's head, indicating that he'll be killed by drug dealers before he can get to Scanlon. In a dream, Joe's father warns Allison to have Joe checked for heart problems. Sure enough Joe has high blood pressure and the doctor suggests Joe take up meditation to lower his stress level. The boss of Joe's company, Dan Burroughs, sees Joe meditating outside the building and says that he also meditates. Burroughs says he's impressed with Joe's work and invites Allison and Joe over for dinner. Allison has another vision in which Joe's dad admits to manipulating Allison in the earlier dream to help Joe get ahead at work.
