Kim drove past the Knight's Inn and felt a compulsion to stop and help a confused-looking man in an ill-fitting suit. Christopher revealed himself and deputized Kim into his investigation of the death of the Jade Emperor's personal servant. While she was there, she suddenly heard Johnny's ringtone. He was sitting in Kim's passenger seat, invisible. The call was from Jewel, who was nervous because Marvin had failed to meet up with her after his call earlier. Johnny teleported to Jewel to discuss it.

Kim agreed to drive Christopher to the Night Circus lot so he could investigate the scene of Lu Xiaofeng's death. Johnny teleported there with Jewel to plan for the impending transfer of Truth, and was accosted by Christopher to explain killing the dragon. Johnny was able to convince Christopher that Lu Xiaofeng was working against the cause of Order, represented by Kim and Johnny, who appointed themselves, because "this is America."

Now amenable to working with Kim and Johnny, Christopher returned to the motel to make a report to the Emperor. The Emperor insisted he remain in the city to restore order. Kim and Johnny agreed that it was time to recruit Grayback's pack to help keep Truth out of Jennifer's hands. Kim drove Johnny, Jewel and Christopher to Johnny's storage container. It was time to work some magic.

Johnny dug into his trunk looking for a worthwhile gift to offer Grayback. He happened to have just the thing in the trunk of his car: a tomahawk peace pipe. When he tried to summon a spirit to enchant it, though, he instead summoned Nayenezgani, who proceeded to walk away without speaking a word.

Jewel and Kim left to track down Cecilia and Wraith while Johnny and Christopher drove to Grayback's garage. Grayback was very impressed by Christopher's etiquette and accepted Johnny's gift, and agreed to help protect Truth. He was skeptical when Christopher described Johnny as an "agent of Order" though.

Kim made a stop at a bar (?) so that Jewel could talk with Matteo. Matteo insisted that Jewel still owed him for sneaking into the Night Circus without a ticket, and suggested (what?) to discharge that debt. Meanwhile, Kim was able to get in touch with Cecilia and Cashed in a Debt to get her to bring Wraith to Vivian's house to protect the handoff.

Johnny and Christopher also went to Vivian's, and again Vivian was very impressed with Christopher, although she also questioned Christopher characterizing Johnny as an agent of Order.
