Henry helped translate while Sarnoff talked but got confused when Sarnoff started using medical terms. He then told Maya that if you want a body fixed or gone, you call Sarnoff. Maya asked if he wanted her fixed or gone and Henry said they are starting with fixed then going from there.

Before looking through, Henry said that if Bonnie found out Maya was back and did not come to see her, it will break Bonnie's heart. Maya claimed that her feelings were not her business, but Henry disagreed.
Lopez refuses to help
Henry then looked through the telescope to see that Maya pointed it at the Fisk Shipping Yard. He looked at her in annoyance and said how he figured she needed more from him than stitches. She asked for just one shipping car to send Kingpin a message. However, Henry refused, saying he will not bring a war to Tamaha or the people he loved.
