A new recruit attacks Dominic, and his allies plot a midnight retaliation to teach the newcomer the rules. They debate limits—arguing that if the recruit makes the first move their response will count as self‑defense—while worrying guards might start asking questions. The planned confrontation escalates and someone snaps, blaming Dominic: "This is on you. You took it too far." Afterwards a man offers Dominic a way out: "If you want to walk out of here, come with me," adding, "I've seen the potential in you. If you want to make it out of here, do what I say." Dominic must decide whether to obey and leave or stay and face the fallout.
