It's the evening just before the trial. Linc is in "his" room right now. He's sitting on Luna's bed when his cell phone rings.

Linc: Takemitchy?

He takes the call and puts his phone to his ear.

Linc: Hey Takemitchy what's up?

There's a few seconds of silence when Takemitchy finally answers, but he seems very restless.

Takemitchy: We have a problem, Linc!

Linc: Hey, calm down, Takemitchy. Tell me what's going on.

Takemitchy: The others said I shouldn't tell you anything because you have enough problems with your family, but I think it's important that you know too. Baji... betrayed the gang.

Linc's face twists in shock.

Linc: What happened?!

Takemitchy: Some weird guy named Kazutora intercepted me at school and took me to the headquarters of a new gang, Valhalla, that's where I saw Baji beating someone from his division. That was the initiation ritual.

Linc: Wait... did you say Kazutora?

Takemitchy: Yes do you know him?

Linc: Takemitchy, Kazutora is one of the original gang founders as much as I am.

Takemitchy: What?! What happened that he betrayed the gang?!

Linc: It's been a while since the boys and I bought our bikes, but Mikey had a really slow scooter. It was just before his birthday when Baji and Kazutora wanted to steal his dream bike for him. But when they broke in, there was a dead person in the middle of the room. This person was Mikey's big brother. The problem is, the police arrived and arrested them both. Mikey's brother was killed with a bolt cutter, just like Kazutora had in his hands. They immediately locked him away, to this day Kazutora says it wasn't him, and each of us believes him.

Takemitchy: Wait I don't understand. Then why did he betray you?

Linc: No idea. The only thing I can think of is that someone visited Kazutora in the juvenile detention center and cajoled him. Mikey was never allowed to visit him, I visited him every week, but I couldn't visit him because of my "great" family. What's happening now?

Takemitchy: Toman wants to go to war against Valhalla.

Linc: When?

Takemitchy: In a few days.

Linc: I'm trying to get back to Japan as soon as possible and get Kazutora and Baji back.

Takemitchy: Alright Linc. Bye.

Linc: Bye.

Linc hangs up and lies down on the bed.

Linc: Those idiots.

---Timeskip---

It's the next day, Linc and the rest of the family are in the courtroom waiting for the trial to start. What surprised Linc is that the rest of the family came too. So Lori, Luna and Luan came to take part in the trial. But what is even more surprising is that the Santiagos and the Cassagrandes came along. His friends are in the audience, as is Ms.DiMartino. Linc sits at a desk with his attorney, Glynda Goodwitch. He wears a black suit. While the Louds sit at the other. Luna looks over and is shocked to see Linc.

Luna: Man, you weren't lying when you said our bro looked drastically different.

Lori: I know right! I was shocked when Bobby said he was in the store with him.
