A crowd watches as Alva offers a big reward to break the Frank Clan's blockade; Harold Simpson accepts the task and draws immediate hostility. The Frank Clan mocks him, vows he won't leave alive, then reveals a bounty on "the reckless guy" who spoiled their orphanage plans and threatens to chop off his limbs. Tension spikes when men seize the aloof Ms. Snow; bystanders plead, one shouting, "Leave my family alone!" Mike rushes in, and an antagonist snarls, "I'm doing all this to make you kneel... I'm gonna have my way with you!" The threat hangs unresolved.
