- Sheriff Bell is back at his office trying to do some work on the bad drug deal. His secretary informs him that every truck at the deal is registered under some dead person's name, so no help there.
- Apparently, a DEA agent has been asking about Sheriff Bell going back to the scene of the drug deal with him, but Bell wants nothing to do with it. Instead, he's going to head to the town of Odessa to talk to Carla Jean Moss.
- Sheriff Bell looks out the window and sees a truck driving by with a tarp blowing all over the place in the back.
- He drives after the truck and scolds the driver for not trying down his tarp tightly enough. Turns out that this truck has been ferrying bodies from the desert drug scene to the local morgue.
