Arvok prepares for First Blood, killing a tetrapteron and painting his face with its blood. He is still conflicted about going through with the plan. Norm accompanies Hale to an old mine and sees that the Na'vi youth have destroyed much of the equipment as a way of letting off steam. Hale's men then begin firing their weapons at the old equipment, which shocks Norm. Hale invites him to take a turn for some stress relief, but Norm refuses, and Hale joins in without him.
