The Road to Hope

Summary Face was already enjoying the possibilities of spending the profits from a no-sweat $300,000 job offered by a foxy millionaire when Hannibal guesses correctly that it must be a trap by Decker. Hannibal goes to collect the money dressed as a bum, but a real bum gets the briefcase and is arrested by the MPs. He is then erroneously sprung by the other team-members, while Smith checks out a restaurant where the bum told him to ask for a certain Wiiliam to get free food. Hannibal finds himself in the hands of a dodgy group of mission-running criminals who give him a full medical exam, then orders him to dig his own grave. He escapes and tells the team they must be after homeless mens' identities, which they sell for a small fortune to criminals. The team sets up their own 'mission' run by "Reverend" Face and "Evangelist" Murdock to in an effort to draw potential victims away from danger and attract the goons. This sets more in motion more than the team bargained for. References to the series of "Road Pictures" featuring Bob Hope and Bing Crosby are sprinkled throughout.
