Honeymoon in Mexico

Ryan puts some Top Gun sunglasses on and grabs a lead pipe out of his jeep. A lead pipe? Is Ryan getting his deadly weapon ideas from Clue? Will Volchok retaliate with a candlestick in the library? I mean, I know Ryan left Newport in a bit of a hurry, but I really think he could have found a better weapon than that. Ryan walks into the bar and removes his sunglasses, making sure that any and all witnesses will be able to know exactly what he looks like. Brilliant! He finds a hallway behind the bar with a bunch of rooms in it. I guess it's one of those bar/apartment complexes. Ryan gets the lead pipe ready and bangs on a door. I'm sure he's just going to fix Volchok's plumbing.

The knock on the door interrupts Volchok's enjoyment of a 40 oz. He picks up a knife (I guess Miss Scarlet has the revolver) and heads for the door. It's the face-off we've all been waiting for! Ryan grows impatient and breaks the door down. But wait -- he finds himself in an empty room. Either Volchok moved out really fast or Seth tricked Ryan. It's the latter! While Ryan's throwing a hissy fit and slamming the lead pipe against a wall, Volchok opens the door to find Seth standing there. "I need to talk to you," he says. I'm shocked! I really thought Seth was stupid enough to give Ryan the real address and we were going to have to watch Ryan and Volchok have their little bad-ass fight. But no! I am surprised and impressed.

So is Volchok. In fact, he even says "this is a surprise." I guess he's been expecting Ryan to catch up with him sooner or later. He didn't think Seth would get there first. He lets Seth into his humble abode and asks Seth if he's alone and how he found him. Seth says he is, and the waitress at the bar told him. Volchok says the waitress's boyfriend wants to kill Volchok. He's just a regular Goodwill Ambassador, isn't he? Spreading joy and cheer all over the world. Seth states the obvious -- that Waitress's boyfriend will have to get in line behind Ryan for that. And Ryan's in town looking for Volchok, although he doesn't know where Volchok is. Volchok starts to pack and asks Seth why he's "looking out" for him. Seth says he's looking out for Ryan. And Volchok can run, but Ryan will find him again. Seth asks if Volchok wants to run from Ryan for the rest of his life. Pretty much, Volchok says. Seth says Volchok can turn himself in -- his father is a lawyer and he can help him. I'm sure Sandy will be thrilled to be volunteered for this. Volchok will have to go to jail, but it might be a "safe" jail. Because jails on this show are so safe. Seth urges Volchok to face up to what happened. "You didn't mean to kill her," he says. "I know. But she's dead. That's all that matters," Volchok says, and leaves.
