As Max takes a taxi home to his apartment, he is followed by two of Angelos men in an ambulance. He gets the drop on them and drives them off, though they claim not to be after him. Max calls Riton and warns him not to go with Angelo, who had just asked Riton to do a job with him. Max and Riton go to Maxs spare apartment, which Angelo does not know of. Max assures Riton that the bars of gold which the two of them had stolen some weeks or months prior are safe in a special car in the parking garage, but berates him for mentioning the gold to Josy, who had then told Angelo.The next morning, Max leaves early and takes the gold to a fence. He is told that the money will take a while to procure. He returns to his apartment to find that Riton has left. Max calls Josys hotel to find that Riton was there, but was recently taken away in an ambulance presumably the one used by Angelos men earlier. He briefly and bitterly considers leaving Riton in the lurch, as his incompetence continually hinders Max. Loyalty prevails, though, and he sets out to recover Riton. ........
