He threatens her with his gun, taking away her weapons.
- Helena Bertinelli leaves her apartment to find newspapers reporting that her father Guido, who she thought was murdered years ago, is alive. She calls her family's lawyer, Donald Campbell, who admits that her father is alive, and promises to arrange a meeting. Helena is suspicious of his use of the word 'we.'
- Suddenly, Omerta appears, firing his weapon into what she thought was her father, but was actually some kind of robotic creation intended to deceive her. Omerta shoots at her aimlessly, trying to wound her, and get some of her blood. She escapes through the window, and climbs down the fire escape, but finds that he car has been rendered useless. She steps in front of a cab, and forces it to drive until she feels safe.
- Later, Helena is received in Campbell's office, where he leaves her alone with her father, saying that he has to take care of some contracts. Over the course of her conversation, Helena contemplates Campbell's use of the word 'contracts' in a legal context, when her father would have used it to refer to mob hits. She recalls that she had heard Omerta use the word in a legal sense, and comes to realize that Campbell and Omerta are connected somehow.
