Lang is upset that Luciano isn't waiting for them to learn together, but Luciano claims he called Lang a bunch of times (og did streamer awards voting when luciano called). Luciano and Harry arrive, they chat about how some of Cypress got robbed last night doing sanitation, and this was the third or forth time it's happened. Luciano approved the clap back, and they've had 2-3 fights with the Manor since last night. Arush confirms that he even solo fought some of them this morning.

They gather up with Clark and Ilya and do some rounds, finding a blue-ish car by the food court. They hold up the driver, but he's just a civilian lawyer. They continue the convoying, Arush tells them about a rap event they're having in Vinewood today. They roll up and wait patiently outside the event until suspicions raise and the gunfight begins. Lang flanks on his own with a shotgun, taking out a car and then grappling to a roof. Lang takes out another, but the police arrive, so he hides in the hills in a bush. The police survey the area and gather up both Manor and Cypress, eventually standing on the hill and chatting, right beside the bush that Lang is laying in. Someone spots him and he takes off, grappling away into the hills.

After getting patched up, Lang goes to the psychiatric ward and takes a mental break before trying to rejoin the group.
