Through his journey Sam struggles to deal with his sorrow and guilt and something else he didn't expect - those seeking revenge. As he's pursued by a new generation of bad boys Sam sets about trying to get the message across to his pursuers that they should stop the violence much like Trife tried to tell him all those years ago.
