Empty marries Bonnie to get his hands on her money and then forces her to ride in a travel trailer behind their car. He loosens the hitch, and the trailer is knocked loose by an overpass. The trailer rolls downhill and crashes into a high-voltage power line. Empty flees the scene and hides in a kid's tree house.
