Arush and Lang chat about how the Roulette Table got stolen, potentially an inside job. Lang visits Bazim in Medical, speaking about the serial trash thrower who keeps decorating his tower in trash. Lang and Clark wish Bazim well, if he were to pass on.
Lang cleans the trash off Bazim's tower, CJ calls to meet. CJ shares that Skipper learned that Andi is using Leon from Cypress as a spy. CJ thinks that Andi is gathering information about different things, like the Cave. Lang thinks it's a distraction, but suggests that she speak to Andi. Lang thinks that Eliza is on Survival now that he realizes that Andrew is gone for that, too. Lang doesn't want radios used in New Babylon, Bazim wants to sue Lang for his Militia job back, CJ's going to put more hands on Project Winter to get things moving. Lang hates Skipper's name being involved in anything, so CJ begins redacting his name from stories and questions.
Lang meets with Luciano, Luciano tells Lang that J Murda did a motorcycle drive by earlier, he's the same man they had locked in the cell last night. Lang asks about Skipper's involvement, but is disappointed when Luciano tells him that he's not around too much. Lang runs into Sunny who's been gathering trash in a recycling area by the entrance, he's suspicious of the serial trash thrower. Lang meets with the Merchant's Guild, reading through Frank's newspaper (hot dog Frank). Arush gets details for his club house construction contracts.
Luciano calls to give Lang a bullet that they got from Larry Knox, it has Lang's name written on it. Lang wants to use it and shoot Larry with it, Luicano agrees. Lang helps make some gold and BBL trades for Arush, Klevin, and Jesus. Buddha will be taking a break from streaming around nopixel V testing time, unsure when or how long it will be, but a fair warning.
Saab begins the town hall meeting by rallying the mood and announcing a new locksmith job available to a civilian. Lang calls out Zeek for being useless and wanting to have a trial, but deciding not to. Lang calls out Skipper for being useless and abandoning CJ as a leader. Saab tries to speak up for Skipper, but gets sent to the shame pit for mentioning 'Dark Saab'. Lang reminds everyone that when he's not around, Skipper and CJ are meant to be the marduks. That should be relevant for responsibilities AND for progress. Lang tells everyone about 'The Great Babylonian Games', warning of the living loser being exiled. The Pirates ask about if they can run the games multiple times or during a schedule that works for everyone, Lang isn't worried. The Militia warns of the drive bys, and puts out a bounty on the serial trash thrower now renamed as 'the vandal'. Clark is leading the investigation on the missing roulette table. Lang starts a new segment of every meeting where CJ and Skipper must come to speak on their duties. CJ reminds people to share contracts, and that there will be a trial once people return from Survival. Skipper takes requests on how to motivate the people, delivering a powerful speech that specifies the re-construction of the church.
Luciano ends the meeting by informing Lang that Edgar was cooking meth at the Ashen Tree, they head over in haste. They find some leftover trash, noting that it's probably from when they last cooked. Lang and Luciano chat about Survival, reflecting on how good Andi would be in New Babylon. Lang gathers up some BBL and gold to convert, and then calls Skipper and CJ to come learn so that he doesn't have to do it himself. They're supposed to be the only people buying gold bars for BBL from the people, so they must maintain that rule. Zeek comes to trade some gold, OTT suggests holding people accountable to unfinished contracts.
