Shane's Break With Vic
After the Strike Team robbed millions from the Armenian mob, authorities began an investigation that continued to build up until Lemansky, unable to handle the tension, burned all the cash in a furnace. Lem agreed to transfer off the team once the Armenian situation had been resolved. However, when Acevada told Vic that the Strike Team would be disbanded with only three members left, they asked Lem to stay. When an argument between the team breaks out, Shane tells Lem that the only reason they want him to stay is so the team isn't shut down and Lem takes off in a huff. Ronnie goes after Lem to try to calm him down leaving Vic and Shane, the two best friends, to air their grievances with each other; Vic's jealousy over Shane spending so much time with Mara and Shane's issues with Vic taking the side of other people, despite them being best friends. When Shane calls Vic a bad father, he pushes Vic past the point of no return and Vic tells him to leave right now, while he restrains himself due to their years of friendship. Shane takes off and the Strike Team is disbanded.
