Synopsis: - During the Depression, in retaliation against the Monolith’s attacks, the Rocco family forces Rabbi Rava to create another golem. A battle between this golem and the Monolith ensues resulting in the new golem trapped under molten iron and thrown in the bottom of a bay. In the present, Tilt and Alice are adjusting to the news of Tilt having HIV. They stop off at a Chinese restaurant where the evil golem, still dormant, is being used as a statue. Billy Eng is there to collect money from the owner. When the owner refuses, Billy shoots him, igniting a gas pipe, and there is an explosion. The evil golem wakes up.
