10:29:44. A whole commercial break later, Carl finally reaches the front gate, where Stokes gives him a hard time about how long it took him to get there. Stokes seems pretty angry about it, too. But what we're going to learn about Stokes this hour is that he's angry about everything, all the time. Carl nervously asks Stokes for the routing documents as he opens the gate. Stokes can tell he's nervous, and asks in a not-so-friendly way, "How's your wife?" Carl says she's fine, and he didn't tell her or anyone else about this. "Why would I?" he asks rhetorically. Stokes angrily wonders why Carl seems so nervous. Carl stammers that he was expecting a simple pickup, and here's Stokes with a small army. He claims he just doesn't want to get caught, is all. Stokes tells him it's cool, then orders everyone into the vehicles -- including Carl. Carl weakly protests that he should finish his rounds, but Stokes insists. Angrily.
Watching from the window, Kiefer mutters, "Dammit." "Forget about him, Jack," Tony advises. "He was dead the minute he stepped out that door. You and I both know that." Even if it did take him a full five minutes to amble from the shack to the front gate that's less than a hundred yards away. At 10:31:47, the three trucks rumble onto the lot: two SUVs sandwiching a semi tractor without a trailer. I guess they're going to just drag the container out of there. The hail of sparks that results from that shouldn't attract too much attention.
