Once he arrives at his apartment, he notices an RCDEA van outside. Mike walks out and greets him.
Mike: Hey! There's the man! The one and only Shingle! This is the guy I told you about Nate!
Nathan: Hi Shingle I'm Nathan. Nice to meet you bro!
Shingle: Uh yeah hi bro.
They shake hands. The three of them walk to the van and get in. Mike and Shingle get in the back while Nathan starts driving.
Mike: So, what did you find out?
Shingle: They're probably the most rich business out there. They've made like 200 billion.
Mike: Interesting.
Nathan: So Shingle. Why did you come along?
Shingle: I'm a pretty moral guy. I've always wanted to do something like this ever since Mike got the job.
Nathan: Hey if this goes well maybe you can get one?
Shingle: Uhh, I'll think about it.
Mike: I think it'd be good to have someone with your morality on our team.
Once they get to Gibet City, they park at the mall.
Shingle: So uh, they hide out here?
Mike: Nah, they're in the desert. Just a mile out.
They get out the van and walk into the desert.
Nathan: So how are we gonna approach this? Does Shingle have a gun?
Mike: I brought him one.
Mike hands a pistol to Shingle. He appears to struggle holding it.
Nathan: Have you never held a gun before?
Shingle: Well, no. I...
Mike: He's always been a moral guy. He'd never kill anybody.
Nathan: He has a great mindset but for this job you're gonna need the pistol in case they try something.
Shingle feels awkward about this. Does he really have the right to take a human life? Whether it's in the name of the law or not it still feels wrong. Once they get out to the caravan, they notice the steam coming out.
Mike: Perfect time. They're cooking.
Shingle: Is this the right place? I mean they're billionaires. Don't you think they own a bigger property?
Mike: Nope. These ratbags cook out here. It's the most hidden place. At least they think.
Just that moment, someone looks out the window and quickly steps back.
Mike: There the sacks of shit are!
The three of them run towards the caravan.
Nathan: COME OUTSIDE NOW! THIS IS THE RCDEA!
Shingle: Should I say something?
Mike: Uh, just tell them to make it simple and that we don't wanna hurt them.
Shingle: Uh... we don't wanna hurt you! Just make it simple and come out!
Shingle points the gun at the caravan.
Mike: Don't. They'll do something if you point it. Just wait until they try and pull a gun out. They always do.
One guy comes out as another shouts.
???: Bro don't! Fucking retard!
Mike: Ahh, Matthew Chilton. You and your goons are under arrest.
Matthew: Hey fuck you man!
Matthew reaches into his back pocket and pulls out a TEC-9.
Nathan: Oh shit!
Matthew shoots at them hitting Mike in the leg.
Mike: Fuck!
He aims his pistol at Matthew and shoots, but he misses.
Mike: Fucking shit!
Shingle: Fuck man you okay?
Mike: I'll be fine, just shoot the fucker!
Matthew misses every shot. Shingle aims the pistol at Matthew's head. He shakes and is visibly nervous, but he pulls the trigger.
