After Itchy takes the $50,000 from Tracy, he steals a car and heads out of town. Junior and Tess spot him and chase him in a borrowed car. Itchy hits a cow and loses control of the car and crashes. The owner of the car is killed in the crash. Itchy douses him with gasoline and sets him afire to mislead the police into thinking he died in the flames. Itchy flees and then realizes he has left the money behind.
