Billy and the rest of the mobsters learn of their failure to escape the prison and the brutal murder of Arlington in the real world. Upon learning this, they set out to kill him again. Whether they succeed is entirely player-determined. After they succeed in killing Arlington, the cycle restarts all over again with the same events repeating exactly the same way, with them having no memory of what happened. If Billy and the rest of the mobsters are killed, then the cycle is broken.
