Liam still can’t believe this is real. They reflect on the odds of him hitting Vinny of all people.

In the basement cage, Thomas commiserates with Justin about hating Bill, but urges him not to destroy Liam’s life because of it. Thomas rattles the cage and shouts, causing Justin to sigh; no one can hear him. Thomas offers to keep quiet about this “mistake” if Justin will just let him out of there. Justin pulls up a bucket and asks Thomas if he has any idea what it’s like to be him. Thomas replies, “Of course not.” Justin fumes about Bill treating him like a sidekick while teaching his long lost sons everything. “Passed me over… Hell no, man! Never again!” he roars. He won’t pass up this opportunity to get what he deserves. Thomas sneers, “So you’ll just let Liam rot in prison?” Justin chuckles; he learned from the best and won’t go back to being Dollar Bill’s doormat. Thomas warns the police will find out the truth — he will not be silenced.
