A visit to a strip-club leaves Ray in a melancholic mood. He goes for a drive and encounters Negra and her friend, who have broken down. He gives them a lift, which does nothing to improve his mood. He winds up in Denny's All Night, where he sees Hopey and Goforth, and spends the rest of the night thinking about the past.
