Deep in Hell, Malebolgia gleefully details how Al is being groomed to lead Hell's armies. Meanwhile, in Heaven, Spawn is being interrogated about his clash with Angela. Back in the alley, Spawn spurns a plea for help from a down-and-out man. The man later commits suicide, leaving Spawn to ponder his earlier refusal.
