* Tony gets into a shootout with Stiltskin, the lead hitman, in a wine cellar. After the two trade fire for a moment, Tony looks at the shelf of wine bottles he's hiding behind, and realizes they're all in a row. He pushes the first shelf over, causing the other shelves to go BookshelfDominoes. Stiltskin is caught off guard, and Tony runs out and fires a shot while Stiltskin is distracted. A moment later, the last of the shelves comes crashing down on Stiltskin. It's not clear if Tony got him with his shot, or if the guy was crushed underneath the shelf, but either way, he's dead.
