In Chapter 10, the absurd nature of much of the underlying black comedy is emphasized with the death of Bucket, the Boss' henchman. After staking out a supermarket where Beauty buys supplies and then trailing her back to her own farm, Bucket commits to action and drives his car onto the Beauty's property. He hops out waving a gun and immediately demands Allan and the rest give back the stolen money.
