Cut to Sister Pete in her office with Beecher and Mukada. She tells Beecher she's arranged for visits with Holly three times a week. The words are still suspended in the air above her head when we hear Vern say "mail." Beecher flies across the room and attacks Beelzebub. Sister Pete screams for the guards to break them up and says to take poor Beecher back to Em City. Schillinger: "Wowee, got quite a temper, hasn't he?" We insta-cut to Beecher seeking an audience with Pancamo, who is lying on his bottom bunk pondering the beauty of his massive upper body. Beecher wants a favor. He asks him to kill Hank Schillinger, and fires Pancamo up by explaining how Vern and Hank kidnapped the children and got off on a technicality. Pancamo sums it all up by pointing at Beecher and saying, "Dat sucks." Pancamo wonders how he can be certain Beecher isn't also working with the hacks and won't ultimately turn him in. Well, you see, because Tobias plans to also kill Vern. Pancamo agrees that this exonerates him from karma. Price? One thousand for Pancamo, and a thousand for the job. We see Said looking at them from afar.
Cut to Beecher getting ready for the visit with Holly. He's all decked out in a polo shirt and watered-down hair. In walks Said to tell him he saw him with Pancamo. He knows Beecher is up to some kind of murdering mischief. Said tells Beecher that the madness will never end. That killing Beelzebub will not avenge his son and will not help Holly adjust. I, for one, feel for Beecher. We see Beecher go into the playroom area, and Holly runs over to greet him. She's definitely a punkin. So cute! He sweeps her up and has flashbacks to the last time she visited with Gary. We then see Hank hugging Vern, and Hank lying in a street naked and dead. Naked? Yeah. We realize from this helpful montage that Tobias is having a moral dilemma about killing someone's son.
We go to Beecher with Said, talking about this new revelation. Said is in full agreement and is appropriately posed in his Allah-knows-all half-perched position with a thoughtful head tilt. Beecher runs to Pancamo to call off the hit. Pancamo is playing cards in the main area and thanks him for the prompt payment...but the hit has already taken place. Bullet thru the brain. No one will ever find the body.
Cut to solitary, where Rebadow is told it's time to rejoin the flying monkeys. I pray that we are not treated to a full frontal. Someone hears my prayers, because it doesn't happen. My twitching, thankfully, subsides. We go to Querns in his office with Rebadow explaining that violence is down 92 percent; Rebadow is apparently the one who's screwing it all up. Querns threatens to send him to Gen Pop if he doesn't get a handle on his recently found inner demon. Querns seems to have qualms. Rebadow walks through Em City accompanied by calls and crows of the other inmates, who seem to be vastly amused by the murderous antics of our resident son of Spam. As he enters the pod, Busmalis greets him with a Drunken Fist-style stance. Rebadow seems to genuinely ask for forgiveness, when suddenly he clutches his head and yells in pain. Go to Busmalis pacing in front of the Em City gate. He sees Querns. Querns tells him it's a brain tumor. Busmalis asks to see him, since he didn't shake his hand in forgiveness. Querns says no. Busmalis pleads. Querns: "No."
