Synopsis: The measure of the man is how many heads he has hunted in the Central Park. And you also get all the heads the victim has managed to gather. A man who is fairly close to the top of the ranking gets upstaged as another competitor makes a valuable kill, but he has a clever plan to get to the top spot in one sweep.
