Meanwhile, the gangsters give the order for everything to go back to normal. Dan goes to the office, daughter Cindy goes to the rendezvous. Of course, they are not allowed to say anything, otherwise another family member will no longer be alive. The atmosphere in the Hilliard house is slowly but surely coming to a head...
