Grayson reaches the Rare Breed clubhouse, where he meets with Dome, the vice president, and Gremlin, his sergeant at arms. He hurts Dome by pulling his earring for letting a rival gang short them on a gun deal.
Grayson sees two prospective club members at the club table, Andy and Oscar. He says he wants them to go to the reporter’s house and see if they can find clues about a woman, Tangerine.
Ike and Buddy Lee go to their sons’ house and talk about their former mistakes as criminals. Buddy Lee’s prison time was the result of taking the fall for his half-brother, Deak, who would not have survived in jail.
They split up and search the house. Buddy Lee finds a picture of Christine, his ex-wife, and Derek. He remembers asking Christine to dance after meeting her. She had moved on during his second incarceration, and he hadn’t blamed her. Buddy Lee finds a notepad on the refrigerator that has a drawing of shoes, fruit, an arrow, and an exclamation point. He takes the note after seeing that it has a series of numbers on the bottom.
In a notebook, he finds the phrase: “Does she know?” with a sketched frowny face next to it (71).
