Elsewhere, Kevin isn’t impressed to find a delivery truck blocking the entrance to the garage. He knows it is Tony’s doing but initially decides not to say anything. As time goes on, however, he gets increasingly angry and demands it be moved. When Tony refuses, Kevin takes the matter into his own hands. Where will this dispute end?
