Police
Detective Zamora updates Hawkeye and Mockingbird on the results of the latest
investigation. Hit-man Reynaldo Cortazar was killed by a mysterious gunman who
left a symbol, a T in a circle, at the scene. Cortazar’s presence indicates
that the Stone Perfs gang is working for a much larger organization with
connections; “Circle T” is a wild card. Zamora warns Hawkeye that if he is
going to continue his anti-gang crusade, he will need clearer objectives and a
set of tactics if he wants to avoid dying. After he leaves, Mockingbird give
her own speech on why Hawkeye needs to be more careful….
Meanwhile
to the underworld, “Circle T” reveals himself to be the Terminizer, gunning
down Stone Perf punks on the streets of LA….
Lotus Newmark gives Prince Charming his orders and also a lesson on why he should
respect her. She catches him leering behind her back and she easily beats him
up with smooth martial arts moves, leaving a gash in his abdomen as a
reminder….
Hawkeye
patrols the streets at night, wondering whether there is any solution to the
gang/drug problem, unaware that the Terminizer is watching him. Hawkeye spies two
muggers robbing a young woman so he heads down and subdues them. The woman does
not want to call the police as she is afraid of retaliation by the gangs so
Hawkeye leaves them bound in the alley. But after the Avenger leaves, the
Terminizer shows up and executes the two helpless bad guys and leaves his mark
on the wall beside them….
Over
the next several hours, Hawkeye pursues his new strategy of constantly
harassing the gang members, unaware that the Terminizer always appears minutes
later to shoot the Stone Perfs. The next morning, Clint and Bobbi are talking
about his new strategy when they are interrupted by Wonder Man, calling their
attention to a news report on the TV. Discovering that gang members he has
subdued are being murdered, he is shocked….
