When a guy in a Mercedes honked at him, Yan said nothing and biked away. Slung over his back was a messenger bag containing some clothes, a snack, and the omnibus edition of "Parker", written by Richard Stark and adapted into comics by Darwyn Cooke.

In this episode, Nat reads pages 1–51 of "The Hunter".
