Titus heads to the Watering Hole. He has always been suspicious of the bar and of Jasper because the establishment makes more money than it should. It is common knowledge that Jasper sells methamphetamine, but Titus hasn’t been able to stop him because others in the community who don’t want Jasper to be stopped keep intervening. Now, Marquis has gotten into a fight with some men named Austin and Brent who are friends of neo-Confederates such as Royce Lazare. Titus takes Marquis to the holding cell and learns that Marquis fought the other men because they called Titus a racial slur. Marquis believes that Titus is too hard on himself, and states that it’s not Titus’s job to fix everything. He also believes that Titus will not stay in Charon County forever.
Titus gets an anonymous phone call from a person who is disguising their voice. The person is also intoxicated and is waffling over whether to share a tip that might be helpful in the murder case. The caller states that they helped a man build a strange building that was decorated with disturbing images of angels, then hangs up before Titus can find out where the building is located.
