The next episode of "Ray Donovan" season 4 will see Ray (Liev Schreiber) working his way around the news going around about the murder he is responsible for.

The trailer for episode 9 "Goodbye Beautiful" shows Sonia (Embeth Davidtz) breaking the news to Abby (Paula Macomson) that Ray killed "an important man" and warned her that her family is in danger.

Of course, the fact that Abby is alive is already something here as her fate was uncertain when fans last saw her. Although she made it, she never seems to run out of problems, as "Ray Donovan" season 4, episode 9 will give her a really big one.

On the other hand, Avi (Steven Bauer) and Lena (Katherine Moennig) push Ray to eliminate Sonia so that they won't have to deal with her and the possible headaches she will give them.

However, as teased in the "Ray Donovan" season 4, episode 9 promo, Ray is not willing to kill her because she has a child. "What about your kids, Ray?" Avi asked.

At this point, Lena and Avi start to think whose Ray's loyalty lies. In the trailer, fans will even see him speaking to the art dealer, who is urging him to kill Vlad (Richard Blake) instead.

"I have nowhere to turn. Get rid of Vlad before my uncle finds out what you did," Sonia tells Ray, who seems to be out of options now. However, it looks like Sonia has some tricks up her sleeves too.

Meanwhile, "Ray Donovan" season 4, episode 9 will also see Mickey (Jon Voight) return to Primm. He brings along Bunchy (Dash Mihok), who is not too eager to join him.

Either way, it looks like Mickey will be able to get what he came for. It remains to be seen how it will turn out for Bunchy though.

"Ray Donovan" season 4, episode 9 airs Sunday, Aug. 21 at 9 p.m. ET on Showtime.
