Chapter 7 Summary

As the men reflect on the results of the conflict, the cowboy says he would like a chance to fight the Swede, where upon Scully continues with his role of referee and tells him that it would not be right. As the Swede enters the room from upstairs, he maintains his swagger, and asks how much he owes. The cowboy asks him why he is so happy, and as Scully immediately sees problems coming, he raises his hand for them both to stop. With that the cowboy spits carelessly into the cardboard box. Scully tells the Swede he doesn't owe him anything, and the Swede returns with the statement that maybe Scully is the one who owes him. As the Swede opens the hotel door to leave, he mimics the cowboy, saying, "Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!" with an ironical humor.
