Ray asks Elliot to do him a favor, which was to do something to do with the migration system. Elliot agrees to do it and before Elliot was about to start Ray warns him not to fool around and look at what he did for a living. The migration system had to do with the website Ray was running. Elliot begins his work and arrives at a block where he needed permission to the encrypt data. So Elliot asks Ray that he needs to meet with the previous person that was helping Ray with the websites. Ray hesitates and says to Elliot that wasn't he a master with theses kinds of things. Elliot says he needs to meet the previous person. Ray agrees and introduces the previous person. His name or he was referred to as Rat Tail because of his pony tail. When him and Elliot were working, Elliot noticed that half his face was beat up.
