The pair glare at each other, but Tess tells the man to stand down, revealing that the guy is just "an old headache". While crossing through a bus, a smuggler gets in Joel's way. They discuss when their next shipment with Bill is due and how Bill "always finds something", although it is not always good.Once they fight through the Infected there, they go back within the walls and through the slums of Boston, one smuggler offering Tess a deal on their way, but she insists she is busy.
