We now meet two more characters, KD and Mayhew, who are in a relationship. Mayhew is a police officer, and KD is an investigator. KD is following a case involving arms dealing and approaches The Continental, but Mayhew stops her before she enters the hotel. Later on, we meet two more characters, Miles and Lou, who are involved in selling guns and arms. Winston decides to help Frankie and borrow a car from his childhood friend, Charlie. Frankie goes to KD’s place looking for his brother and learns that they are also searching for him. Frankie used to work with them, but they haven’t heard from him in months.
Winston manages to find Frankie, and as they are being followed by Cormac’s men, Frankie and Winston must escape. Here, we are also introduced to Yen, who is Frankie’s girlfriend. Winston takes Frankie to Charlie’s place and assures them they are safe there. However, Charlie turns out to be a betrayer and provides information about Frankie and Winston to Cormac. Soon after, Frankie and Winston are attacked by a group of armed men. After an intense fight-and-chase sequence, they manage to eliminate all of them. Yen, Frankie, and Winston make it to the rooftop to find a helicopter for their escape, but in the meantime, Yen is shot by one of the sharpshooters.

Frankie jumps out of the helicopter with the box to save Yen and Winston, knowing that Cormac is pursuing him and the box. Frankie is shot and killed instantly, and the box is taken back to Cormac. When Cormac opens the box, he finds that the coin press is missing, and instead, there’s a monkey gesturing with its middle finger. In the last few minutes of the episode, we see Winston approaching KD and asking for a substantial number of guns. The episode ends here.
The show is incredibly fast-paced, and episode 1 was stunning. The superb action sequences and thrilling scenes are captivating. The series begins with a bang, and we hope that episode 2 will be equally massive as Winston seeks revenge against Cormac. With no prior experience in gunfights and combat, it will be interesting to see how he handles this challenge.
