The next day, their departure is thwarted when Brian, another of Logan's brothers, slashes their tires and attacks Marcus for sleeping with Kara and giving her cocaine. They return just before dawn but are spotted by the B&B owner's young son. Marcus recovers the bullets, using a knife to dig Vaughn's bullet out of the boy's skull, over Vaughn's objections. They return to the village and are invited to dinner by Logan and his cousin Al Logan asks if Marcus can help him find investors who might revitalise the community.
