Billy was trying to get answers from the Nurp Perp, but first, Big Hack showed up to spoil the party, then the Jerboa shadows appeared. Several bounty hunters, including Lincoln, an unknown man with six-shooters at his sides and a giant lizard on a leash, hit the Nurp Perp’s neighborhood looking to cash in on a $50k bounty on Billy’s head, a bounty set by Dante Oganov to get revenge on Billy. Another bounty hunter — known to Lincoln as “Boss Hawg” — also hit the neighborhood. While Lincoln sent Shitbird to hunt for Billy, Boss Hawg hit the 7-11 parking lot to talk to Butch and Money Monday, who, along with Big Hack, are members of the Rolling Outlaws gang that wants Billy to pony up five gees.

Pragman, a bounty hunter wielding a pair of old-school Western six-shooters using a lizard-like “hound” to track his targets, cornered Billy in the Nurp Perp’s alley. Pragman was about to shoot Billy down, but the Man in Gray used his crossbow to shoot one of the guns out of Pragman’s hand. The Man in Gray claimed the Billy bounty for himself and told Pragman to either walk away or drawdown. Meanwhile, unaware of the faceoff between Pragman and Lincoln, Rolling Outlaws gang members Butch and Money Monday talked to Boss Hawg about joining forces to track down Billy. But wait, there are more bounty hunters in the neighborhood — the sword-wielding Flechette Sisters and the sorcerer Oleus Oakbeard are also hunting for Billy. Now Billy -- and the Nurp Perp -- can do nothing but watch as Billy’s fate is decided for him.
