After the shootout, Bill visited Dwight and immediately accused Quiet Ray of being a possible suspect. While Dwight doubted that theory, he refused to rule anyone else out yet. Meanwhile, wealthy billionaire Bradley Van Heusen confronted Governor Clark regarding Dwight's dark criminal background.

Van worried that Clark underestimated how much real power Dwight held within the Mafia. While Clark remained committed to destroying Dwight's criminal empire, Van's doubts showed that their political partnership was growing tense.

The situation grew much more complicated when corrupt Detective Wozniak paid Dwight a visit. Previously, Wozniak sold confidential police intelligence to English Dan for $3,000 every week, and Dan's death cost him that profitable side business.

Looking for a new buyer, Wozniak revealed that the German Luger pistol used to murder English Dan was in police evidence, meaning investigators could eventually trace the weapon back to Dwight's protégé, Tyson. Wozniak demanded $20,000 to steal the gun back and solve the problem.

The detective also demanded another $5,000 to investigate the recent murder attempt on Dwight. The general accepted the offer to protect Tyson and uncover his attacker.

In Tulsa King's Dinosaurs episode, Tyson tried to capitalize on his growing rap career and social media momentum while Grace worked to get him signed to a record label. While the General was away in New York, Joanne led the rest of the crew to join the counterfeit wine auction and artificially drive up the prices.

Seeing a chance to show off for his online followers, Tyson continued increasing the price until he mistakenly placed the winning bid. Instead of earning a huge profit from unsuspecting customers, the crew ended up buying back its own fake wine for a final bill exceeding $2 million. The episode ended with Dwight facing an unknown enemy, strong political rivals, and Tyson's multimillion-dollar mistake.
