Madison and Travis arrive at Calvin's house looking for Nick.

Nick calls Calvin repeatedly and eventually meets with him at a diner. Calvin questions Nick about why Madison and Travis had come to see him and Nick swears he's said nothing about Calvin's drug business. Calvin appears to comfort Nick and asks him "how long it's been", meaning since Nick last had any heroin.
