Sweet Tooth arrives in tandem with Stu, rekindling old alliances with John Doe and Quiet amidst nostalgic recollections of their past kills. However, the tranquil reunion is disrupted by Mayhem, who decides to sow discord among the competitors by spreading malicious rumors about one another.

Amidst this chaotic backdrop, a ray of hope shines through in the form of Mike, who astonishingly remains alive. He is overjoyed to be reunited with Stu, but their reunion takes an unexpected turn when Mike reveals his new partner, Dave. The duo now ride together, following an incident where Dave almost consumed Mike but was subsequently steered onto the path of redemption by Mike's intervention.

Unfortunately, Sweet Tooth casts a dark shadow over their joyful reunion, especially when they learn of Stu's alliance with the malevolent clown.

Mr. Grimm emerges soon after, accompanied by the formidable Boss Lady Raven, setting the stage for Calypso to step forward and initiate the proceedings. He declares to the assembled crowd that there will be a preliminary qualifying round before the main event commences. This round entails teams seizing a package and successfully conveying it to Tournament City. Only those who manage to deliver their packages unscathed and survive the journey will advance to the subsequent stage.

However, Mayhem unexpectedly joins the fray, appropriating one of the race cars and plunging into a chaotic gun battle. Upon witnessing a flare signal in the distance, John and Quiet swiftly conclude that they must return to her aid.
