Jimmy Shan tries to convince his Lei Feng tong that recent beheadings are not the acts of Huo Yibai tong but he is ignored and the group decides to continue their war. After another beheading, the Sandman tells Jimmy to again try to get his tong to stand down as he is on the trail of the killer. After his latest kill, The Face returns to his apartment, removes his disguise, and babbles to himself in the mirror.
