During the town fair, Chester is selling helicopter rides to the audience. As the Reverend is walking up to the helicopter ride booth, Kevin flies overhead with Winter in the helicopter. Kevin starts to circle the area dangerously causing people to duck down, including Town Lady and then flies off and continues to do risky moves. He finally lands and Chester yells at him for scaring away customers and the Reverend grabs Winter and tells her she wont be flying in a helicopter ever again. At their hangar, Chester tells Kevin he is the best pilot he ever met, but he has the responsibility to keep his customers safe and he is grounded from flying. He gets a call from Jake O'Donnell and tells him he wont take the job. Kevin tells Chester he promises to be safer and then asks if he can borrow the helicopter, but Chester tells him no. Chester then sends Kevin to pick up some lug nuts. Chester hears a helicopter land and readies a shotgun. Jake O'Donnell walks in to the hangar with Schecter and another man and greets Chester. Chester brings up how in the past Jake lied to him about his cargo and refuses to work for Jake again. Jake walks over to a photo of the two of them and a group of other pilots from their days working at Skyways at the Van Nuys airport. Jake tells Chester if he works for him, he will be able to retire in two years. When Chester again refuses to work for Jake, Schecter shoots Chester dead.
