Hardware has been set up. Alva leaked information about gun-runners, knowing Hardware would show up to stop them. But, they were waiting for him, and he barely survives the fight long enough to kill them. Afterwards, Barraki visits Curt's apartment and discovers that he is Hardware. He explains how Alva had used him, and his plans for revenge. But, Barraki is horrified when Curt tells her of the people he killed without any remorse. Curt now has some doubts about his methods.
