The Mu’tafikah hold a meeting and discuss future excursions for recovering art. Berbelang explains how they will execute a mission at the Center of Art Detention. Berbelang lists an extensive collection of works that they must recover. Some group members are suspicious of Thor because he is white. Fuentes tells Thor that if it wasn’t for Berbelang’s approval, he wouldn’t be part of the crew. The members discuss various ways in which white people have pillaged their ancestral homelands. Thor follows Berbelang out of the meeting and tells him that if he’s going to be a distraction, maybe he shouldn’t be a part of the operation. Berbelang questions Thor’s commitment, and Thor defends himself and his motives, but the others do make him feel like he doesn’t belong.

Berbelang and Thor enter a restaurant. Berbelang is overcharged for his coffee by the white worker but he pays calmly. He then shares a story about how Faust relates to the Mu’tafikah doing business with a white man. Berbelang emphasizes the importance of eradicating any sense of white supremacy from Thor’s mind. Berbelang leaves, and the restaurant worker insults Thor for associating with a Black man. Thor tells the worker that his father owns this restaurant chain, and the worker then kindly offers him more coffee.
