On a dark road, a convoy from the FIRM is driving when Karl, Slade, Larson, Valentine and Burt set a trap. They cause two cars to explode which forces the convoy to stop and the convoy members are then shot to death. Karl and the others then steal the Mongoose, a laser weapon from one of the convoy vehicles. Slade picks up the badge of one of the dead FIRM operatives named Patrich Coe and tells Karl stealing a weapon wasn't part of the deal. Slade wants to renegotiate the deal and Karl warns him not to get greedy. Karl, Slade and Valentine test out the Mongoose for Leo Martin and Karl offers to sell it for 10 million dollars. Leo accepts Karl's offer and tells him he is to deliver the weapon to an Eastern Bloc country. After Leo leaves, Slade approaches Karl and again wants to renegotiate how much he is paid for being part of the theft. Karl threatens Slade and after he walks away, Slade looks at the FIRM badge he took. He contacts the FIRM and offers to give up Karl's name in exchange for 1 million dollars. Later, Stringfellow Hawke walks up to Louise Mackey and tells her he and his friends are looking to try out for the stunt positions. Slade and Hawke use code words to identify themselves to each other and Slade hands Hawke an application with the words barn 5:00 pm on it. Slade goes to the barn and as he is waiting, is killed by a hay grapple.
