Part 3/8:
Following the plan, Pete collaborates with an operative named Stasz, who meets with a diplomat to repack the fennel. However, Stasz’s decision to bring liquor for the General creates a significant deviation from their plan, causing ripples of disruption. At a nightclub, after a tense negotiation, the buyer reveals he is an undercover cop, leading to an explosive confrontation that results in his death at the hands of Stasz.
In the aftermath, the General asserts that someone must take the fall for the cop's murder, lining wheels of manipulation into motion. Despite Stasz being the shooter, Pete is coerced into a five-year prison sentence to maintain cover and run the drug operation from the inside, all under the looming threat to his family's safety.
