The story

With the project months behind schedule, studio executive Les Grossman gives Damien an ultimatum: get the cast under control, or the project will be canceled.

Unbeknownst to the actors and production, the group has been dropped in the middle of the Golden Triangle, the home of the heroin-producing Flaming Dragon gang.

Four Leaf is revealed to have hands; he confesses to Underwood that he actually served in the Coast Guard sanitation department, has never left the United States, and that he wrote his "memoir" as a "tribute".
