But it is all subterfuge and Kemper tricks Wayburn and bolts. Wayburn tracks him down and shoots him dead (after the other shoots first) and takes the loot Kemper had stolen and was on his person at the time of the shooting. Wayburn disposes of the body (although the audience is not shown how or where). Roxie asks Barnaby to find Kemper or she'll have to forfeit the bond. She does not blame Wayburn and is quite solicitous of him. Wayburn tries to fence the loot but Sven Rolly, Kemper's former partner in crime, whom he also cheated, wants his share.
