It’s morning! Craig wakes up and heads to the bathroom to have his morning pee. As he is relieving himself he starts talking to a guy who is handcuffed in his bathroom. They start talking about the missing Wayne and his drug company. They mention somethings about a mafia and two guys named Nulla and Zero. The bathroom guys tells Craig that Wayne must of did something wrong and that’s way he is missing or most likely dead. He also tells Craig that he wants to see Zero but then instantly flips out saying that he can’t return home. Craig leaves the bathroom obviously over the situation.
Charley and Hal are driving over to me the one cop Hal trusts. While they are driving, Charley zones out thinking about Rayflo and his lies. Hal senses Charley’s worry over Rayflo and starts feeling guilty about the situation. Charley assures Hal that Rayflo’s not returning has nothing to do with him. It is he (Charley) who Rayflo is avoiding. They arrive at a scary church. As they wait for the cop to arrive, Hal recalls when he met Charley for the first time. Charley starts to recall the meeting as well and remembers the paperwork Hal had spilled on the floor and instantly grabs hold of Hal’s shoulder. He asks Hal if he knows anything about Vassalord (the last thing Miranda said before being killed). Hal states he doesn’t know anything about it. He was just delivering the papers to Father Mailer per his father’s request. Then someone overhead says that Hal is a liar. It’s Craig. He informs both Charley and Hal that he feels that Hal was involved with the sale of the drugs. He continues by saying that even though Hal may not have known what the drug was specifically for he knew something was going on because ever famous person he met ended up dead.
Hal breaks down into tears. In his mind he thought the drug was designed to cure people and those who died where incurable but after processing what Craig has said he starts to realize that his father may actually be a murderer.
Craig and Charley sit down to talk. Craig informs Charley that a man named Zero approached Nulla for a sale but for some reason Wayne and the others disappeared around this time along with their failed attempt of kidnapping of Hal. Craig tells Charley that he is going to Italy to infiltrate the organization to find Wayne and get some information.
Hal tells Craig not to waste his time trying to save his murderous father. Craig tells Hal not to worry. He will have a strong and powerful priest with him. Needless to say Charley is surprised by this bit of information. Charley reluctantly agrees to go with Craig. Hal also decides to go to Italy as well
Charley calls Rayflo to let him know that he will be going to Italy with Hal and Craig and to take care while he’s away. Rayflo comments to himself “Guess it’s time I made my move.” He sees Barry’s “thing” on his shelf and tells Barry he has a fun new game for them to play (he says all this while giving Barry the finger)
In Italy we me a man name Mr. Liu who kills a former employee for being a traitor (ruthless) After killing this traitor he is transported to his next location. One of his associates tells him about an American who wants to met with him. The associate shows Liu a piece of paper with the number 86 on it. This number correlates to the number tattooed on the bathroom guy’s butt in Craig’s room. Mr. Liu is now very interested in meeting with this American aka Craig.
When Mr. Liu returns to his office he is informed of a new rookie added to the organization. He has other pressing matters on his mind (Craig) and tells his associate to handle the situation.
