It turns out that the camp is illegally harvesting marijuana, and killing off anyone who tries to flee. Ray manages to escape, and convinces the local law that he is a decorated Purple Heart veteran.

Ray is placed among the crew as a consultant, as is the survivor. Unfortunately, one of the scripted procedures causes the lining of a PVC pipe to give off fumes which induce homicidal mania and delusions. Ray starts to fall victim to the fumes, but the survivor of the first mission, recognizing the symptoms, manages to recover and supply Ray with an oxygen mask.

The garage worker's sister is concerned that her brother is going to blow it: he doesn't seem to realize that quitting the day after you rob your boss and going crazy spending the money on coll stuff is a bad thing. She contacts Ray, who pretends to be another dimwitted crook and tries to get the two criminals out of trouble. The brother's buddy tries to double-cross them, and eventually despite Ray's best efforts to work things out, the sister is killed by the Mafioso Godfather.

The First Time is Forever
A TV reporter, whom Ray refuses to help because he thinks the man is only interested in a big story, is killed. His daughter contacts Ray, who takes the case out of guilt. As Ray investigates, he is plagued by nightmares of himself walking through a crowd of faceless men to kill someone on the steps of a capital building: apparently a flashback of some sorts to the first man he ever had to kill.

A series of mysterious accidents surround the site, and tempers are flaring. Drawing upon his favors, Ray goes undercover as an archaeological professor. He eventually manages to uncover the hidden site and resolve matters between the land developer and the tribe by convincing the former to make the sacred ground part of the building without disturbing it. Ray leaves, with the tribe members (and perhaps the audience) left to wonder if he was some kind of incarnation of the Neniwa.
The Second Finest Man Who Ever Lived

Night Maneuvers
Ray is contacted by a rebellious student at a military academy who believes he witnessed his classmates murder a man. Going undercover as a military instructor, Ray investigates and finds out that one of the drill sergeants has created an elite cadre of special students who are willing to go out and use their training to kill drug dealers and other criminals. Ray and the student have to flee, and a cat & mouse chase ensues as the sergeant and his students chase them through the forest.
Cry Wolf
Ray gets drawn into a case of a drugged-up TV star, Ty Gardiner, who tries to hire him despite Ray's misgivings. Turns out Gardiner's name and celebrity were used by his unscrupulous partner to rip off both the Mafia and the Yakuza. Now that the partner has disappeared, Gardiner is left holding the bag with both sides trying to kill him, and the Feds looking for him as well. Ray's attempts to negotiate the matter aren't helped by Gardiner, who fancies himself the big dramatic hero that he plays on TV. Ray manages to set up both the Mafia and the Yakuza to shoot it out with each other, using Gardiner as bait so that he isn't wanted by the Feds. In the subsequent shootout Ray and Ty both end up in hospital beds, with Gardiner hatching another nutty scheme.
Blood Money
With the aid of former client Chief Riskin, Ray comes to the aid of a principal who is trying to keep the gangs, lead by former student and current criminal Floyd Wilson, from overrunning his school and corrupting three students that he has high hopes for. Ray uses his own version of "tough love", basically kidnapping the three boys and first having them thrown in jail and then locking them away from Wilson in a private home from one of his "favors". Eventually one of them goes to Wilson, who has killed the principal. Suspecting the other two, he gets his gang together to kill them, only for Ray to step in. Wilson is put away and the three boys go on the straight and narrow.
Anytime, Anywhere
Hired by a woman to help locate her father and other missing MIAs, Ray travels to Vietnam to recover a statue which holds a vital list. However, the local authorities are out to stop him. Ray just avoids dying in an explosion, but is blinded by the blast. Wandering the streets, he is taken in by a blind Vietnam vet who teaches him how to function despite his temporary blindness. Ray manages to find the cab where the statue was left, and escape with it just ahead of the government goons as his vision recovers.
Caper
In this parody of a Mission Impossible episode, Ray is contacted by the daughter of a Russian scientist who wants him to help her father defect. In the first few minutes of the episode, Ray precisely details how their plan to rescue the father from an ocean liner will go. Unfortunately, then the mission starts for real. The sneak thief he had planned for the caper can't get out of jail, and puts Ray in contact with his idiotic cell mate/robber. They can't convince the ship's captain that his papers are out of order, leaving their own disguised captain to wander haplessly around the ship. The guard whom Ray has a beautiful woman set up to seduce turns out to be gay. The plans to climb up the side of the ship go awry when a monsoon hits. And so on. Ultimately the mission succeeds anyway, thanks to a fake customs office that Ray set up in advance. As the rest of the team says they'd like to do this again, Ray winces in pain.
One Way Ticket to the End of the Line
Ray is hired by a woman who needs his help to find her father, a crop duster pilot who became involved in a territory war between two rival marijuana-growing gangs in the back-country. Despite a treacherous DEA agent, Ray manages to find the father, who is still alive, and break up both gangs.
