He wakes up and sees that he is tied with Detective Morda Wayne (Michael Jai White), the same detective who handled his sisters molesters case.
Rajbir gets all worried that he will die this time, Wayne tries to console Rajbir and know what he is talking about. Rajbir tells Wayne about his last encounter with Mr. N. He says he was trapped with Nayeem and Anthony and they have to kill a person they believe who has killed before, he survived after killing Nayeem and Anthony but he believes Mr. N now knows that he is the person who had killed before and is brought here for a second time to be killed. Wayne is surprised by learning this and asks who he has killed and Rajbir tells that he is the person who killed the molester shocking Wayne. Wayne says after they are done with this he have to deal with police for that murder.
After some time Mr. N welcomes them and says that as Rajbir is an experienced player it will be unfair to Wayne to play by the old rules. He says that they are in the top floor of a lodge and they will live if they come out alive of the Lodge from the front door, it's so easy it's just that the lodge is full with criminals who are in this for monetary rewards to stop them. A gas knocks out them both unconscious when they wake up they are untied and they both start exploring the place.
They carefully start coming down and checking room to room to see if there is an exit but it is totally locked. They came in a room with nearly 10 men, they start identifying Wayne as the detective who put them behind the bars. They start attacking them but Wayne manages to fend them off. As they clear the room with a lots of trouble a announcement from Mr N comes saying that the reward will be doubled if they bring the dead body of this two, Rajbir seeing the accumulating criminals suggests that instead of fighting that they should make a run for it and Wayne agrees. They run frantically and didn't care for their environment so without checking they run in a room whose floor is destroyed and they both fall.
While they are down masked men approach them, then beat them and drag them to another room where they are handcuffed. Mr. N voice comes back, he says that Rajbir has told it himself why he is here but it would be fair if they know why Wayne is here and reveals that Wayne is a close friend and associate of the molester, they both where involved in the recent kidnappings and with Wayne being a part of the system they kept themselves safe from the Law. With revealing that N remotely removes Rajbir's handcuffs and enraged Rajbir starts beating Wayne while Wayne tries to reason with him after few minutes Wayne Handcuffs are also remotely removed and he gains the upper hand in the fight with Rajbir he says that he will kill him to avenge his friend. He starts whooping Rajbir and throws him around, Rajbir fells down two floors below, Wayne finds the stairs and goes to the floor where Rajbir fell to check but Rajbir is not present there.
After searching for some time Wayne sits down, a dressed Katrina Sawyer(Gina Carano) comes behind him and tells Wayne that she has what he need and asks him to follow her which he does. They enter a scented, well decorated room and Katrina offers him drugs which Wayne takes revealing them to be ecstasy. Katrina calls in few girls inside the room who start seducing Wayne, slowly they tie him down and move away and Katrina comes forwards and sits on him, while undressing him she reveals that her sister was also a victim of Wayne and his friend crimes but she couldn't live the life after it and committed suicide. Katrina tone and face becomes angry from seductive and he starts punching Wayne.
After furiously trying Wayne is successful in breaking his bounds and starts fighting Katrina. They go toe to toe, both replying back with punches and kicks of their own. Suddenly the battered floor gives up on Katrina breaking up and Katrina legs getting stuck in the holes. Wayne comes near Katrina to deliver the killing blow but from the back he is hit by a steel pipe a falling down Wayne turns to see Rajbir holding the rod. Rajbir grabs a piece of wire and wraps it around Wayne and kills him in the same way he killed the molester and Nayeem. A crying Rajbir after killing him gives out a scream and leaves him. He helps Katrina get out.
They both are met by Mr. N to which Rajbir asks what is this and Mr. N replies that it is justice done the right way. All the people killed by Rajbir were murderers, Anthony killed his grandfather and Nayeem was responsible for the death of an aspiring actress. Mr. N says that they are now free to go but they can always return.
