Sylder is being questioned about where he lives, what he does, and so on. He obstinately gives false answers, but the desk sergeant knows all the information anyway. When he is asked about prior convictions, he remains silent. The desk sergeant manages to get him to say that he has none and, seemingly content with that answer, fills it in on the paperwork. Sylder is then told by the jailer that someone wants to see him, a "fella named Gifford." Gifford decides to use his position of authority to exact some revenge on Sylder for punching him a few weeks ago.
