469 return to Albuquerque

Jimmy didn't let Tony off easy; he had gone too far this time. When arranging the round-trip route for himself, Tony never mentioned he would come for backup. Now here he was, in the dead of night, with two men guarding the tunnel entrance. When caught, Tony actually claimed he was there to back him up. Was that how one was supposed to provide backup? What on earth did he mean by that?

Dragging Tony to the entrance, Jimmy threw him down before climbing down himself to retrieve his bag. He searched all three men, confiscating their guns, IDs, cell phones, keys, and such, stowing them all in his bag. Jimmy then climbed back to the surface, covered the entrance with the wooden panel, camouflaged it with soil and turf, placed a stone on top, and walked over to a car parked nearby.

Jimmy had not found the car keys on Tony, but upon opening the car door, he discovered the keys had never been removed. It seemed Tony hadn't been very careful.
