No one could see a resolution.

While Rory returns to Ireland to inflict his various forms of retribution, Nealen ascends to fill his boss's seat. As Nealen's obsession haunts him, he conspires with Rory to bring the troubles to America. His goal! to stir the passion of Irish-Americans and to get the U.S. involved.
