When someone is indoctrinated into the Kings, they have to kill someone with a special red handled knife. Tina finds a knife like this in T's room and decides that she needs to hide it. She spends many days wondering if her brother really was a gang member like the press was saying. Later, it comes out that T took the knife from Junior after Junior cut the man for the Kings, because he thought that without the knife they couldn't pin the crime on Junior. They were wrong.
Later, Tina shows Ty the knife and they bury it in the cemetery so that no one will ever find it. They are in essence burying the hold that the Kings have on their families.
