A crowd of small-business owners confronts Raymond Kane after learning his company is an empty shell and unpaid orders. They surround him, demanding repayment—insisting these funds are their lifelines, citing families and a vendor's hospitalized mother. Voices rise; some threaten to stop him from leaving. Kane admits failure and apologizes, then makes a single plea: "Just give me three days." That promise becomes the episode's turning point, forcing creditors into a tense choice between detaining him now or risking a short deadline that will decide whether they get paid.
