Billy and Bates' long-time acquaintance, Joey "Douchebag" Kincaid, is released from prison early and asks to be a part of the Death Squad. Billy reluctantly agrees, and the three of them make a plan to meet with the gun dealers John has met. Unfortunately, the night before, Billy learns that the Mako Staple factory, the only place he's worked since failing out of college, has burned to the ground. He unloads the guns, and pours himself into a bottle of scotch.
