The brothers check into the Dew Drop Inn motel, where Richie watches over their hostage while Seth goes to give his ex-wife Vanessa her share of the money. Freddie consults Professor Aiden Tanner, an expert on Mayan religion, to find out more about the significance of the ritual killings he believes Richie to be responsible for. The Fullers' trip to Mexico is delayed when their RV breaks down.
