As Carl is confirmed a member of the LDS Church on Sunday, his younger brother, Todd, seeks retribution for the death of Carl's friend. The gang responsible for the shootout corners Todd and stabs him to death. The police inform Carl and his grandmother Mae of Todd's death later that day. Carl digs up his weapon and hunts down the man responsible for Todd's death with fellow gang members. Though they find the man, Carl reneges his desire for vengeance and lets him live, leaving another gang member to kill the man to Carl's dismay. Distraught, Carl returns to the ocean in which he was baptized, throwing his gun into the wake.
