Board meeting with Morales, Pancamo, and Supreme Asshole. They tell Sup that they will cut him in on the action if he "takes care" of Redding. Supreme agrees to this, but needs some time to get the job done. Morales tell him not to "wait too long," and to snap Redding's neck before he snaps theirs. Allah leaves the meeting, walks to the railing, and looks down at Burr, who sits at a game table and slowly looks up to return the glare.
We cut to the shower, where Hill sits in a chair next to his wheelchair and showers. Enter Supreme, who greets Hill and astutely observes, "Being cripple must suck." Then Supreme mentions Redding and feigns concern over the fact that the Italian twosome wants him dead. Hill comments that he's known Redding "all his life." And that he took care of Hill and his family when their father was killed in Nam. Supreme acknowledges this. "I know you have much love for him." He tells Hill to let Redding know about the plot against him, to which Hill suggests that Supreme tell Redding himself. Allah says he can't: "He won't let me near him." Hill says, "What about me?" He confronts Allah about ratting him out to the cops, to which Allah just says, "Bullshit." Hill gets himself in his chair and goes after Allah, who then knocks Hill out of the chair and kicks him several times in the upper chest like a midget pimp on crack. He stops kicking and walks out of the shower, leaving Hill just lying there.
Later, in the library, Burr approaches Supreme as he sits at a table just down from Keller, who seems SO engrossed in his book. Burr perches on the table and stares Allah down. "It takes a real man to beat a guy in a wheelchair." Allah denies it, saying he "never touched" Hill. "Just like you didn't kill Shemin and Brown?" Allah casts a look in Keller's direction and says, "I'm innocent of that…there are others who need to pay for that crime." Burr, undeterred, asks him about Daniels. Allah, fed up, says that Daniels laughed at him, so he got what he deserved. Supreme then exits, followed by Burr. Keller swallows hard, and for once it's because he's nervous.
Ryan and Keller, in Ryan's pod, discussing the situation. Keller tells Ryan that Supreme knows they killed Shemin and Brown, then pinned it on him. Ryan coolly says he didn't tell anyone. Keller points out that they were both guys Beecher slept with. Ryan, even cooler, says, "Maybe he thinks you did it…but not me." Keller looks at him. "You looking to hang me out to dry, O'Reily?" "No." Ryan says he'll talk to Supreme and report back to Keller what he does and doesn't know: "You can trust me, K-boy." Keller says he has no other option.
