Eddie Dial is a career criminal and robber who helped violent thief Victor Blanchard in blackmailing jewelry store owner Harold Gumbal via holding his dog hostage to force him to rob his own store. After Harold brought Victor and Eddie the jewels, they were immediately stopped by the property guard whom Victor shot after removing his mask. They then let the dog go but Victor shot and killed Gumball. They then stuffed Gumbal in the car, ditched their balaclavas, and dumped Gumbal in the woods. Thanks to Marty's "cheating", Eddie was immediately arrested, where he confessed to having a part in the robbery.
