Pretty Hard Cases (2021) s01e08 Episode Script
Flowers
1
Sorry I wasn't the greatest company.
- I'll make it up to you Friday.
- Actually, can't do Friday.
You have a date?
If you're ready to be real with me,
I will cancel those plans.
I feel like a real gangster,
talking business with
the infamous Randy Bowen.
But I am gonna have to have
a couple of my guys
thrown in the mix.
So, I want Jackie and Shaggy here
to be my point people.
- You got the money out, right?
- No. Cops got everything.
What are you doing here?
You said you'd have my money by Friday.
Please!
Best MDMA money can buy.
Randy Bowen, you're under arrest!
I don't even know who the hell
this Nelson guy is.
We do.
I saw the surveillance footage.
The guy was guilty.
But you beat up a kid!
You might want to take a look at this.
You went out for the DS job,
you didn't think to mention it to me?
We can talk about it over dinner.
Why don't you save it
for your new Friday night?
I didn't get it.
Want to get drunk?
- Yeah.
- Come on.
Okay. Okay.
What'd we do?
I don't know.
I'm still putting it together.
I hurt my lip.
My head is so so bad.
Oh, I remember now.
I bought this ugly-ass pantsuit
from Insta-Cart.
Okay.
Duff, what a
what am I doing in your clothes?
Well, at least you look cool.
I remember now.
We went to a pub, and then,
we got into a fight with
two girls in the washroom.
Oh, my God. We got into a fight
with two girls in the washroom.
Hm. Served them right.
Telling us we too old to do
a Toosie Slide. Pfft.
I'm so old I don't know
what the Toosie Slide is.
You remembered it last night.
- Wha
- Remember, we did this?
And then, you just, like,
hit it like that, one time.
I don't remember.
Pfft! I could go for some ketchup chips.
Oh, God!
I'm gonna be late!
- No!
- I'm gonna be late!
I'm gonna be, like, yeah,
this is a great first impression
on the DS, thank you very much.
What?
- Oh, my God.
- What?!
I think we did some
drunk dialling last night.
- What?
- I think we called Naz
and asked him if he had
Robin Hood by the bag.
Oh, God!
You bring out the worst in me.
No, you do that to yourself.
But one thing's for sure,
if we were 10 years old,
our parents would never
let us hang out together.
- Your parents would love me.
- They wouldn't.
Duff, I remember!
Gimme a beat!
Bing, bong, bing, bong, bing, bong.
Bing, bong, bing, goodni
You're already not on beat.
Oh, God!
I can smell your breath.
Ugh! I can taste it!
Anyways, I don't want
to come in, step on any toes,
rearrange the furniture,
but as an outside eye,
I do see room for improvements
in Guns and Gangs.
Excuse me. Uh, so sorry to interrupt.
Where is there room for improvement?
We could start by not being late.
Unavoidable. I do apologize.
Long coffee lineup, huh, Wazowski?
Uh
I would really like to say
that I am so happy
that you do not want
to rearrange the furniture.
If that's the case,
what I'm wondering is,
why did you actually rearrange
the furniture?
I was speaking metaphorically.
I did move my desk to a spot
that I thought was more accessible.
Uh, I like the new spot, personally.
Speaking in metaphor,
well, that risks misinterpretation.
You may feel that your desk
is more accessible,
I feel, and she definitely feels,
that it's a little bit "micromanagy."
All right. Well
If we're gonna get this
Stockwood crew wrapped up,
- let's get this show on the road.
- Okay, more figurative language.
- To be clear, he means let's
- Sam.
- Yeah?
- Let's get to work.
Yes.
Hey, Gabrielle.
Oh, hey.
I'm dying for ketchup chips.
Weird.
Me too.
Tsk! Ugh! Damn it.
Homicide, coming through.
Ms. Marks, you spent
the last couple of years
working for Randy Bowen
at his glass factory,
did he make any enemies?
I mean, nobody liked Randy.
- I already know that.
- Danica Marks.
Now, how are you out on bail again?
We found drugs on the body
of Randy Bowen.
Forensics confirmed it was MDMA.
This particular MDMA contains spores
from one Protea Grandicolour.
Who?
Proteas are a tropical flower.
Quite uncommon north of the border.
If you don't want to talk, that's fine.
I've already given this information
to my colleagues in Drug Squad
who are following up on it as we speak.
That's bad.
Very bad. We haven't released you,
in any way, shape or form.
You're staying in here.
Hey.
Did Homicide call you about
the MDMA capsules they found
on Randy Bowen's body?
No, why?
Uh, yeah, Jimmy took that one.
Your cocaine.
And Jimmy's weed.
Come on, you knew I found
Randy Bowen's body.
You didn't think to hand over
the file to me?
Nope. I didn't.
- Well, maybe you should have.
- Fine.
Take it.
Where's the file, Davidson?
It's on my desk.
Hey, Davidson, you didn't get
too far on this, did you?
Okay, that's I keep hearing that.
That's a
You hear that squeaking sound?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Are we gonna have to get pest control?
Is that what we need to do?
We might need to get pest control.
- Are you serious?
- Ah, squeakers.
You need help?
Yeah. Maybe you can pull up
all the flower shops in town
that sell Proteas?
Some kind of tropical flower.
They found pollen on the MDMA capsules.
So, we need to start
by finding a connection
between the flower shops
and Randy Bowen.
Maybe even pull in Hamm
Whoa. Where'd that come from?
No idea.
- Naz, it doesn't bother me.
- Are you serious with this? It's funny?
- Why don't you be funny with me, huh?!
- It's fine, it's fine!
It doesn't bother me.
Here, give it to me.
It's not 1982. This isn't Serpico.
I will not be bullied.
Go on snitch.
Ooh-ah!
Absolutely.
And you know what else, Davidson?
You act like a child,
I will have to tell the teacher.
- Ooh
- Asshole.
Ah!
- Yep.
- Do we know who did it?
I can't say for sure.
McConnell, Davidson.
Both of 'em!
- I'll open an investigation.
- Sorry.
I just can't believe that
there are cops out there
who think we should still be
covering up for each other.
I know, Kelly, I know.
You know, maybe you need a change?
Get out of Drug Squad.
There are other departments
you can do good work in.
Oh, no, no! It's not Drug Squad,
it's the entire mentality of this place!
Sorry.
Drug Squad is my home.
You know, me and Naz,
we bring a lot of integrity
to that team.
I just can't bail on him.
Fifteen years ago, I worked Vice,
and my partner was a racist prick.
He was a real bully.
He made me want to quit the force.
Right. So, what'd you do about it?
I became his boss.
And you still have
to clean up his messes.
But now, they pay me
a lot of money to do it.
A: why didn't anybody tell me
that a hangover feels this way?
B: Hamm is eating garlic bread
at his desk,
and it's just making me feel really
like, not good, like, really,
really nauseous.
And C: Detective Sergeant Greene
really seems to think
that he is my boss.
He is your boss.
Yeah, but he doesn't need to flaunt it.
Sorensen, he just, like, left me alone
and he kind of just, like,
let me do my thing.
Which you complained about ad nauseam.
I cannot believe I'm gonna
say this, but I was wrong.
Look, Nathan's a good guy.
He'll run a tight ship.
Perfect. That's great. You take him.
Anybody better than McConnell.
Sitting around, playing cards all day,
hiding rats in people's desks.
He put a rat in your desk?
'Cause of Keegan?
I f And I came in here with a
Duff, I'm s I'm so sorry.
That's all right.
- We used to it.
- Hm.
Anyway, I gotta get back to work.
Look, I found a lead on those MDMA pills
found on Randy Bowen's body.
Want to come?
I have to clear it with my
overbearing boss first, but yeah.
Hey, Kel?
I'll handle this, okay?
- Thank you.
- Mm-hm.
So, there are not many
flower shops in town
that carry Proteas,
especially this time of year.
But we did find
an interesting connection
between one flower shop
and your boy, Randy Bowen.
What's that?
When we were canvassing the area
after we found Randy Bowen's body,
I talked to a woman who actually
stayed at that motel
and she took a picture
of her fiancé
in the parking lot.
Why you would take a picture
in the parking lot is beyond me.
I mean, you could see the AC unit
Look at his complexion, like,
she needs to learn about filt
U-uh, anyhoo, this is Randy's room.
And this car was parked outside
for a few hours
three days before he was killed.
Okay.
Get over here.
I can't I can't see
the license plate.
- What does the sign thingy say?
- Ah!
That's Cortina Couriers.
And they have an account
with Gaia Flowers.
It's over on Wilson.
And Gaia Flowers carries Proteas.
Pro-te-as?
Proteas.
One of the only shops in town that does.
Okay. So, who's dealing the drugs?
Is it couriers, is it the flower shop?
Either, or.
And they could be in it together.
Okay, let's do this.
Let's go pay a visit to Gaia Flowers.
Naz, would you like to come along?
No, I can't, I, uh
I gotta go talk to Shanks.
She's investigating the department.
Investigating what department?
All departments.
Trying to root out this, uh,
old-boys' club
that seems to be rampant around here.
What old-boys' club?
It's not really a club,
it's more of a mentality, Barry.
People who ostracize and
intimidate anyone
who speaks out against a cop
that breaks the law.
Do you know any guys like that?
Hm. No I hate those guys.
Really?
Well, I mean don't we?
- Or-or do we like them?
- Anyway
when I'm done, Backbone Barry
and I over here will check out
- Cortina Couriers.
- Okay.
Didn't you say you're
a lone work addict?
Ouch!
I'm just saying.
Naz has done a lot of work on the case,
so I thought that maybe Oh!
Hey, DS Greene, we have a break
in the Stockwood case.
It involves recon at Gaia Flowers,
- so we were just gonna head out.
- Good. That's fine.
Just before you go,
I was wondering if I could
get your help solving a case.
I'm trying to identify
these late-night callers.
Hey, you!
Greene! Greeney-bean!
Bicycle shorts are dorky
and even I know that,
and I'm the biggest dork in town!
Bicycle shorts are so dorky,
plus you snore in your sleep!
Of course, he snores in his sleep,
'cause you can't snore
when you're awake.
- Yes, you can! I've seen it.
- No, you can't!
So, anyway,
you have good luck with whoever
your new Friday night is,
'cause whatever she is, she
can't hold a candle to The Duff.
Okay, okay, funny.
Ha, ha.
At least I was on your mind last night.
- Okay, maybe. A little bit.
- Duff
What?
I sounded really loose, like,
really relaxed.
- Maybe you should drink more.
- Maybe I should.
Uh-huh.
All right, let's head to Gaia Flowers.
You don't have to do this, you know.
It's not your mom's life
being threatened by the Mafia.
Yeah. I know. But
We're in this together, right?
You know, when my mom
does this MDMA deal,
she can get Buffalo off her back,
and then we can get out of this,
start fresh. Get our cut.
I think I gotta go to work,
or they're gonna kill me.
I gotta go hang out with
some really boring girls
and bag MDMA capsules, otherwise
I'm pretty sure
they're gonna kill me too.
- Hey.
- Hello.
I'm, uh, here to pick up
a Sunshine Special for
A. Conda.
A Sunshine Special
Yeah. There you go.
One Sunshine Special.
Cool.
- Thank you.
- De nada.
Hi! Yeah, those are for me.
I've been waiting out here
for over an hour already.
Anna Conda. Nice.
Your car is fire.
- Oh, hilarious.
- Loser, right?
I friggin' hate this town, man.
It's like a colonic,
without having to pay for it.
Oh, God.
Oh, it's Elliot. Hold on.
Shh, shh, shh.
- Hey, Mom.
- Hey, Elliot, how are you?
I'm driving your car
a lot.
- It's cool.
- Oh, yeah, really
it's not that bad, is it?
How are you? Are you doing okay?
Everything's all right?
How's living with your dad?
He's never around, so
I kinda have the place to myself. So
- Uh, I got a job too.
- What?
Elliot, you got a job?
That's so good! Where?
Uh
You know, I'll tell you
about it later, Mom.
I gotta go, but I love you, okay?
Okay. I love you so much. I miss you.
Okay, did I sound like I care?
'Cause I want to be cool,
like I don't care.
Yup. You sound like
you cared a little bit.
It's more believable, anyway.
He said my car was cool.
What? Pfft! Girl, he was lying to you.
There's nothing cool about that car,
which is why it suits you so well.
Although
last night, you were kinda cool.
Really? I was cool?
Like how? Like, how was I
- What'd I do? Like, what'd I say?
- W-w Not cool.
Not cool. You were
You were fun.
We had a good laugh.
That's great! Oh, God,
I wish I could remember it.
- Duff.
- Hm?
I think somebody has to go in there.
Can it be you?
Because I really don't want to move.
- Fine.
- Thank you.
Be right back.
I owe you.
Hola!
Welcome to Gaia Flowers,
where every bloom is a symbol of love.
- How can I help you today?
- Uh, I need some flowers
for a funeral.
Oh, I am so sorry. Who did you lose?
My third cousin. On my granddad's side.
Okay, well, uh, no matter
how distant, death stings.
Did you have anything in mind?
I don't know. Um
My cousin liked Proteas.
You got any of those?
I certainly do.
Very rare. Very beautiful.
Your cousin had excellent taste.
Ah!
Great. I'll take six.
Flowers
Bodhi, it's okay.
Just grab a broom from the closet.
The vase was old, baby,
I was due to replace it.
It's not a problem.
Ay, ay, ay.
It's the third one this month.
He's not the sharpest tool in the shed.
But he's loyal.
He comes to work every day, on time,
and stays until the last order
is filled.
Very hard to find workers like this.
And, uh who's delivering these?
Oh! We have a courier service.
Very reliable. Excellent drivers.
You're in good hands.
Okay.
I bet you some ketchup chips
it's that sketchy dude
he got working in the back.
Man, owner says he works
almost every day.
Bodhi something.
- I think we should run his name.
- Okay.
- Wai-wait, is that him?
- Uh, yep.
Well, well, well, will you look at that.
You were right! Okay.
Let's go arrest him, get him
to flip on the owner.
No, I don't think it's the owner.
I didn't catch that vibe from him.
Really? Is that what
your crystal ball says?
We don't have enough for an arrest.
W-we just witnessed a drug transaction.
No, we just witnessed Bodhi
put some "plant food"
into a bouquet of flowers.
Oh, I see, and he keeps
the plant food fresh
in his crotch. Great
Can we just do it my way?
I already got enough trouble
without you adding to it
'cause you gotta prove that
they should've made you the DS.
That is only a tiny bit
what this is about.
Look, how 'bout we just make it
about finding the drugs, okay?
How 'bout that?
And my crystal ball tells me
that that MDMA is connected to
Randy's murder.
Fine.
Let's follow that courier and
see where he's taking the drugs.
I saw your car out front.
Ah, yeah, it was a gift.
- I was gonna trade it in.
- Nice.
I think it's genius.
No one's ever gonna
pull you over in that thing.
Yeah, that's why I kept it.
Hey, uh
Randy's partner, Tiggy, needs to
you know, talk to you.
I don't know a Tiggy.
Uh, yeah, she's cool.
She's, like the brains.
Randy's just the muscle.
- So, who has the connection to Buffalo?
- That's Tiggy.
She wanted to fill you in
on a few things and
she told me to give you this.
Okay.
Thank you.
Wait. Where you going?
Duff, where are you going?!
Hey. Were you just trying
to deliver those to my address?
28? You Finley Silva?
Yeah, that's me. Thank you.
Thank you so much. Oh, my God!
Who are these from?
Beautiful!
Layna! Come on!
- Get up!
- No.
Come on.
You're forgetting that Randy was
a horrible human being.
Well, I was sleeping
with that horrible human being
for a month, so
I might've gotten a little attached.
Okay, well, he might've got
a little killed,
and now I gotta fix it, okay?
So, pick up that snotty tissue
and take the ugly snake
back to your room.
That's probably Nelson. Come on.
Hi, you must be Nelson. Come on in.
I gotta be somewhere in a half-hour.
Okay. We'll make this quick.
This is my sister.
She's a little down because
you know, Randy
fell off his perch, as they say.
But he brought me up to speed
on your business deal.
I know he fronted you 50,000.
I will be filling Randy's shoes.
I'm sorry. I don't understand.
Oh
I thought you'd have heard.
Randy's dead.
It's very sad.
But before that happened,
he said that you would be
upping your volume
and we will be bringing
your MDMA across the border.
See, Randy made this deal on my behalf.
Bill Misiano gave me the impression
that he was running things.
How do you know about Bill Misiano?
I didn't.
Until he reached out to me.
Said that he was Randy's
primary investor and
and that the 50 grand was his.
What?!
Misiano wants to work with me. Direct.
And I checked him out. He's legit. So
I'm not sure what you have to offer me.
I'm thinking the less people
involved, the better.
But my condolences.
Aw. Thanks.
I appreciate it.
What kind of person
leaves drugs on their doorstep
for an hour?
My guess is that kind of person.
Oh, girl, we are gonna rave tonight!
Good thing no one stole
your merchandise.
Tonight is your lucky night.
'Cause you, my friend, are getting
a personal tour of where we work.
Women are supposed to stick together.
I don't think that blanket
statement always applies.
Well, this place is sexist.
And I'm filing a lawsuit.
So, you think we wouldn't have
arrested you for drugs
if you were a man?
I think a man wouldn't have
spent a night in jail
with nary a tampon to be found.
I don't think a man would be
able to find a tampon either.
There you go.
I was being metaphorical.
That's probably why I didn't follow.
A man wouldn't need a tampon, would he?
Gender is more complicated
than that, Finley.
You should know better, you're a nurse.
I wonder what your bosses will think
when they find out you were
skipping work to attend a rave
wearing the worst outfit
in the history of the planet.
And now you've got a drug charge.
- Okay. This is vintage.
- Is it?
Yeah. And you're blackmailing me.
We're not blackmailing you,
we're offering you a deal.
Okay. Demanding a benefit
in exchange for
not revealing compromising
information about me,
that is blackmail.
God
Oh.
Check it out. It kinda is blackmail.
Oh. I don't feel good about that.
I don't feel good about that.
Maybe we should
- Yeah.
- Just leave. Yeah.
A criminal record is a bitch,
but I'm sure your job
will be fine with it.
Wait!
Where you going?
You don't want to tell us
who the drugs are from,
we got better things to do.
So, we're gonna do it.
Okay. I don't know who
the drugs are from.
But I can show you how I get them.
Phone!
It's all done through an app.
My friend told me about it.
You just order the Sunshine Special,
capitalize the Es, like this,
pay through the app,
drugs show up at your house.
Just like that.
Just like that.
Just like that.
- No, I hear what you're saying.
- That was a good little tag-team.
It was a good little tag-team, but Duff,
- I gotta be straight with you.
- What?
There is no way Lorenzo Day
doesn't know that his shop is
running drugs if people are
ordering them through his app.
We should've grabbed him and
Bodhi while we had the chance.
Apparently, you're dying
to say, "I told you so."
So, just say it.
- I am not a gloater
- Mm.
And if I was a gloater,
I'd be gloating all the time,
because even though people doubt me,
- I am usually right about everything.
- Oh, my God.
You're gloating about not gloating.
Huh. That's weird.
Looks like an outside site
has gained unauthorized access
- to Gaia Flowers' app.
- What does that mean?
Means the app's been compromised.
It's called a blunt-force attack.
Someone exploits a loophole
in the app's configuration
so they can manipulate it
to do what they want.
So Lorenzo could be innocent.
Hm. How interesting.
Okay, well who's doing it, then?
That's what I'm going to find out.
They deliver for Gaia.
Yeah, well, they also hacked
Gaia's app using an onion site.
I'm sorry,
can you translate that for us?
It means it's fake.
The top layer of the courier
site presents legit,
but underneath, it's linked
to the dark web.
When someone places an order
for a Sunshine Special
using the flower shop's app,
it alerts the Cortina website.
Okay, well, what about Gaia?
Nah, it just looks like
a regular order to them.
Except the Es are capitalized.
- Oh, my gosh!
- Yeah, to tip off Bodhi
that it's a drug order.
We saw him put the drugs
in the bouquet that we took off Finley.
Oh, so he's Cortina's inside man.
Oh, someone just logged on.
Wait, from the courier's?
Well, shut it down,
- they'll know we're cops.
- I know.
My IP's routed to look like
it's coming from Copenhagen.
- They'll think I'm a hacker.
- No, no, don't engage. Don't!
Stop. Don't engage.
- Do-don't engage!
- It's the only way to download
what they have on their server.
Ah. They're hitting me with malware.
Hit 'em back!
They're trying to intercept
the download.
- Oh! Press "escape"! Escape!
- They're trying to kick me out.
- Hit "escape" again!
- Okay.
What? They want to play, I like to play.
Okay, okay, okay.
Can you all stop pressing
"escape"? Please!
- Sorry.
- Sorry.
- Come on, almost there.
- You can do this.
Oh, come on, don't do this to me!
Whoo!
Now that, that is
a sport that I could watch.
I mean, what a rush, huh?
Am I right or am I right?
It's not a sport, ding-dong.
If it was, we just lost.
Not necessarily.
Did we get what we needed?
We sure did.
- Boom!
- Nice.
I want you to go through this
with a fine-tooth comb.
Owner, employees, everything.
I want everyone affiliated
with Cortina Couriers.
Yes. On it.
W-wait, why does it feel like
we're just, like, following orders?
'Cause he just did his computer magic.
- And he's your boss.
- Yeah, but I
It-it's still annoying.
What are you going through?
I am going through Cortina's
transaction history. You?
Uh, the employee list.
Well, that's gonna be easy.
Bunch of delinquents and degenerates.
Generalize much?
Reprobates, rapscallions,
hooligans, ne'er-do-wells,
layabouts, scallywags,
all great words, d'you notice that?
Sam
I was joking.
I'm having some fun.
Remember, it's me, it's cool, fun Sam.
I don't care about that.
Where did you say your son got a job?
I don't know. He didn't say. Why?
Because he's on this list.
That's a mistake.
I don't know.
How many Elliot Wazowskis are out there?
This is a mistake. Uh So
What are we gonna do?
No.
You aren't gonna do anything.
Maybe we could just
take his name off the list.
Are you really asking me to do that?
No.
Sam.
- I have to
- Wait. W-where you going?
- I just have to have a minute.
- Sam.
I just need a minute, please.
I Will you tell Shanks for me?
And just be the
W And because I-I
Can I? I have to have a minute.
Mm!
- Yeah?
- Steve?
Steve, where did Elliot get his job?
Some courier place, why?
I can't understand you.
What did you say? What'd you say?
I'm eating.
Listen. Listen to me right now.
Elliot might be dealing drugs.
Okay?
So, I need you to roll up
your lawyer sleeves
and actually defend someone.
What are you talking about?
Oh, my God, Steve, please!
I can't understand one word
that you are saying right now!
Hey, did you leave me
weird phone messages last night?
We need to bring in Wazowski's son.
Why?
We're chasing the MDMA found
on Randy Bowen's body.
It led us to a courier company,
and Elliot's name
is on the employee list.
M'kay. This is fine.
This is gonna be fine.
You keep her away from this.
I'll send Hamm out to pick him up,
bring him down here.
I don't think this is gonna be fine.
It's always fine. 'Till it's not fine.
Hamm! Where are ya?
You don't have
anything in the car, do you?
Nah. It should be fine.
I think I know this guy.
Hey, uh
- Was I speeding or something?
- No, no.
God, this thing is really small, huh?
Yeah
Um
You're gonna have to exit the car, son.
You don't have to do that. Come on back.
Hey, I'll call you in a bit, okay?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, go.
I hope everything's okay.
Yeah
- Hey, Sam.
- Hey.
We found your name on the
uh Cortina Courier employee list.
Yeah, I told you I got a job.
How do you do it?
How do you mess up every little thing
I have bent over backwards on?
I work my ass off.
I have given you
every opportunity.
- You take it all for granted. That you do!
- Wazowski. Wazowski!
- You've worked for nothing!
- Wazowski. Get your ass back in OC!
I'm gonna be taking him in Interview,
and you are not going anywhere
until we find out exactly
how you're involved.
- Involved with what?
- Go!
This is whack! I need to make a call.
No, you don't. Give me that.
Hamm, get her out of here.
And you, come with me.
Come on, Sam. Please.
We're gonna have a little talk.
Businesses tend to
criticize their competitors.
This is bad form.
Instead, we should praise
our competitors.
- Learn from them.
- Mom!
Cooperate with them to their advantage.
- Mom!
- It will help you
in the long run.
Jesus, Jackie!
Give me a heart attack, why don't you?
The cops just picked up Elliot.
Okay? I don't know what this is about.
They said they needed to talk to him.
This is about his job.
I bet you anything it's about his job
with the Cortina Couriers.
Bet the cops are onto them.
Okay. Whatever this is about,
this is not good.
We cannot catch a break.
No, baby.
This is our break.
You don't seem
to be the least bit worried.
Well, I don't really know why I'm here.
Listen, you might pull the wool
over your mother's eyes on the regular,
but you're not gonna do that with me.
We're gonna get real. Right now.
- Okay.
- Okay!
Are you still going out
with that Jackie Sullivan?
Is this about her?
'Cause she has nothing to do
with this.
Jackie's a good person.
- I mean she's amazing, actually.
- Wazowski!
I know you're not watching.
I know you're not in there, watching.
Because I distinctly told you
to stay away from this.
Told you.
- What's your job
- Come on. Let's go.
I can't.
What's the worst that can happen?
- He can be involved.
- Okay.
So, say that he is.
Does it mean that
you can't love him anymore?
Does it mean that you're a bad mom?
No.
We can love people who do bad things.
We just can't save them, Sam.
Come on, let's go.
Hey, uh, I found
something on Gaia Flowers.
It's a bill of lading.
A shipment of flowers is slated
to go to Buffalo today.
The truck'll be stateside by sundown.
Question is, are they delivering
drugs hidden in flowers,
or are they just delivering flowers?
Look, Bodhi Malvo took
the shipment order,
so my guess is they're exporting
across the border.
- Mm-hm.
- Randy Bowen was probably the connect.
- Yep.
- So, should we call it in to FBS?
No, I want to catch the driver
before he leaves the flower shop.
Okay. Let's get these guys.
- Yep.
- I'm gonna go with Duff.
Wazowski, look, I don't think
you should go.
Please.
Duff, please, I can't stay here.
Hey, look, it's me,
operating in the grey zone.
I'll follow your lead.
I promise.
- I promise.
- Okay.
- My lead.
- Yes.
- blind eye to anything.
- Nope.
Sit up straight, for God's sakes.
This is serious.
Tiggy?
Wh-what are you doing here?
What do you want?
It's more about what you want right now.
Or should I say need.
Bet you think you're clever,
side-stepping me,
making a direct deal with Buffalo.
But I happen to know
the police are onto you.
Your business is busted.
It was probably the cops
hacking the system this morning.
Goddammit!
Buffalo's expecting a shipment, right?
So, when that doesn't show up,
Misiano's not going to be happy.
Have you seen Misiano not happy?
It's not pretty.
But now, your business
is on the cops' radar.
One wrong move, and you all
go down in flames.
You make excellent product.
And I admire that. I do.
And in turn,
I hope you'll respect what
I bring to the table.
Importing,
exporting,
and information.
In the spirit of collaboration,
I'm willing to save your ass.
Of course
I'm gonna have to renegotiate
my cut. But
those are just details. Right?
Hey!
GTPD!
We have a warrant to search your van.
What's going on?
What's going on?!
Hey, careful with that!
You got anything?
- Not yet. Anything up there?
- Nothing.
Who's gonna pay for this?
Bodhi Malvo, open up.
GTPD. We've got a warrant
for your arrest.
- There's nothing here.
- This doesn't make any sense.
Where are the drugs?
No!
Great. Hm.
Must be hiding.
My favourite place to hide is the dryer.
Or somebody tipped him off.
- Naz?
- Yeah. Somebody tipped him off.
Yeah. I bet I know who.
Hey, don't go there.
It wasn't Elliot, right?
He's been with Shanks all day.
And didn't you tell me
Shanks took his phone?
It's okay.
Come on.
But I wiped it down clean.
If any mud gets on 'em,
I take 'em off right away.
Because, you know, there's nothing
like clean running shoes, right?
Ladybug, is that you?
Welcome to Buffalo.
Yeah, it's me!
Disappointed it's not your
new best friend, Nelson Lam?
What, are you kidding me?
I'm always rooting for you!
You should be thanking me.
If it wasn't for your little "ladybug,"
Nelson would be in cuffs.
The cops are onto his route.
Push came to shove,
Nelson would've turned you in.
Boys, see that? You see?
Are you listening to this?
This is what I'm talking about.
This, right here.
They're so sick and tired of me
going on about
"women this, women that."
None of them voted for Hillary.
How'd that work out for you?
I don't give a damn who they voted for.
I care that you tried
to double-cross me.
I don't want to work with men
I can't trust.
Well, Tiggy
I'm a snake.
It's a fact.
Everybody knows that about me.
I will take your ear off,
I will take your neck off,
unless you do things for me.
So, the question is,
are you gonna be my feast,
or are you gonna be my nest?
Nelson would've screwed the pooch
if it wasn't for you,
so now, he's my feast.
You saved the day, so now,
you're gonna be my nest.
That's it.
It's that simple.
Come on. Let's go have some fun.
Let's have a good time.
You-you deserve it. Come on.
Come on.
I needed that.
You know, as far as burritos go,
it's, like, it's not bad.
- You know?
- Mm.
- Your child was hungry.
- Uh-huh.
I drilled him for hours,
he never cracked.
What are you thinking?
I'm thinking that if he's lying,
- he's pretty damn good at it.
- I already know that.
Let's just keep an eye on him, okay?
Okay.
Eat all of it.
- I spent money on that.
- Yes, ma'am.
Oh, I think that's Dad.
He's probably outside. I'll
- Yeah.
- Elliot.
If you have gotten yourself
into something
that you can't get out of,
I can get you out.
I love you, Mom.
Okay? I really do.
I'll see you soon.
Yeah
Third cousin on your grandfather's side.
I have to admit,
your commitment to grief
was exceptional.
I'm Detective Kelly Duff.
Hello, Kelly.
We're investigating a courier company
that we suspect is trafficking
illegal narcotics
using your floral arrangements.
What?
I'm sorry. Am I in some sort of trouble?
- Do I need a lawyer here?
- No. But
we need to know everything you know
about the courier that picked up
your latest shipment to Buffalo.
Of course. I'll tell you everything.
But I was only there
for the second pick-up.
- There were two pick-ups?
- Yes!
Cortina, they called last minute,
they made special arrangements to have
the first half of the shipment
picked up an hour earlier.
Look, you see?
My employee, Bodhi Malvo.
He took care of everything.
Bodhi
Give me one second.
- Can I borrow this?
- Uh, of course. Yes.
- Uh, just
- Be right back.
Uh, okay. Um
Don't check the messages.
Did you?
- Do what?
- Did you go?
Mm. On occasion.
Okay, well, I better get going.
So
That's your new Friday night?
She could be.
She's not limiting things
to one night a week.
So, I snore in my sleep?
You've been listening.
Oh, I listen.
There's just an awful lot
you haven't been saying.
I didn't know about your promotion.
You didn't tell me
about your new Friday night.
Anything else you want to share?
Honestly, I didn't know you cared.
Nice flowers.
Sorry for your loss.
Yeah. So am I.
Do you see something?
Y I-I'm looking for the
other half of that shipment
- Lorenzo was talking about.
- Mm-hm.
Cortina's.
They didn't cross the border,
but look
There was another shipment of flowers
that went to Buffalo tonight.
- It was another courier truck?
- Nope.
Sullivan Logistics.
Tiggy Sullivan's company,
mother of Jackie Sullivan,
our key informant on the Stockwood case,
and your son's girlfriend.
I knew something was up with that girl.
- I knew it. I knew it!
- No, no, no, no.
'Cause we looked into Tiggy.
She was clean. She was spotless.
Now, she's about to be the stain
on both of our reputations.
- Tiggy Sullivan.
- Tiggy Sullivan.
Sorry I wasn't the greatest company.
- I'll make it up to you Friday.
- Actually, can't do Friday.
You have a date?
If you're ready to be real with me,
I will cancel those plans.
I feel like a real gangster,
talking business with
the infamous Randy Bowen.
But I am gonna have to have
a couple of my guys
thrown in the mix.
So, I want Jackie and Shaggy here
to be my point people.
- You got the money out, right?
- No. Cops got everything.
What are you doing here?
You said you'd have my money by Friday.
Please!
Best MDMA money can buy.
Randy Bowen, you're under arrest!
I don't even know who the hell
this Nelson guy is.
We do.
I saw the surveillance footage.
The guy was guilty.
But you beat up a kid!
You might want to take a look at this.
You went out for the DS job,
you didn't think to mention it to me?
We can talk about it over dinner.
Why don't you save it
for your new Friday night?
I didn't get it.
Want to get drunk?
- Yeah.
- Come on.
Okay. Okay.
What'd we do?
I don't know.
I'm still putting it together.
I hurt my lip.
My head is so so bad.
Oh, I remember now.
I bought this ugly-ass pantsuit
from Insta-Cart.
Okay.
Duff, what a
what am I doing in your clothes?
Well, at least you look cool.
I remember now.
We went to a pub, and then,
we got into a fight with
two girls in the washroom.
Oh, my God. We got into a fight
with two girls in the washroom.
Hm. Served them right.
Telling us we too old to do
a Toosie Slide. Pfft.
I'm so old I don't know
what the Toosie Slide is.
You remembered it last night.
- Wha
- Remember, we did this?
And then, you just, like,
hit it like that, one time.
I don't remember.
Pfft! I could go for some ketchup chips.
Oh, God!
I'm gonna be late!
- No!
- I'm gonna be late!
I'm gonna be, like, yeah,
this is a great first impression
on the DS, thank you very much.
What?
- Oh, my God.
- What?!
I think we did some
drunk dialling last night.
- What?
- I think we called Naz
and asked him if he had
Robin Hood by the bag.
Oh, God!
You bring out the worst in me.
No, you do that to yourself.
But one thing's for sure,
if we were 10 years old,
our parents would never
let us hang out together.
- Your parents would love me.
- They wouldn't.
Duff, I remember!
Gimme a beat!
Bing, bong, bing, bong, bing, bong.
Bing, bong, bing, goodni
You're already not on beat.
Oh, God!
I can smell your breath.
Ugh! I can taste it!
Anyways, I don't want
to come in, step on any toes,
rearrange the furniture,
but as an outside eye,
I do see room for improvements
in Guns and Gangs.
Excuse me. Uh, so sorry to interrupt.
Where is there room for improvement?
We could start by not being late.
Unavoidable. I do apologize.
Long coffee lineup, huh, Wazowski?
Uh
I would really like to say
that I am so happy
that you do not want
to rearrange the furniture.
If that's the case,
what I'm wondering is,
why did you actually rearrange
the furniture?
I was speaking metaphorically.
I did move my desk to a spot
that I thought was more accessible.
Uh, I like the new spot, personally.
Speaking in metaphor,
well, that risks misinterpretation.
You may feel that your desk
is more accessible,
I feel, and she definitely feels,
that it's a little bit "micromanagy."
All right. Well
If we're gonna get this
Stockwood crew wrapped up,
- let's get this show on the road.
- Okay, more figurative language.
- To be clear, he means let's
- Sam.
- Yeah?
- Let's get to work.
Yes.
Hey, Gabrielle.
Oh, hey.
I'm dying for ketchup chips.
Weird.
Me too.
Tsk! Ugh! Damn it.
Homicide, coming through.
Ms. Marks, you spent
the last couple of years
working for Randy Bowen
at his glass factory,
did he make any enemies?
I mean, nobody liked Randy.
- I already know that.
- Danica Marks.
Now, how are you out on bail again?
We found drugs on the body
of Randy Bowen.
Forensics confirmed it was MDMA.
This particular MDMA contains spores
from one Protea Grandicolour.
Who?
Proteas are a tropical flower.
Quite uncommon north of the border.
If you don't want to talk, that's fine.
I've already given this information
to my colleagues in Drug Squad
who are following up on it as we speak.
That's bad.
Very bad. We haven't released you,
in any way, shape or form.
You're staying in here.
Hey.
Did Homicide call you about
the MDMA capsules they found
on Randy Bowen's body?
No, why?
Uh, yeah, Jimmy took that one.
Your cocaine.
And Jimmy's weed.
Come on, you knew I found
Randy Bowen's body.
You didn't think to hand over
the file to me?
Nope. I didn't.
- Well, maybe you should have.
- Fine.
Take it.
Where's the file, Davidson?
It's on my desk.
Hey, Davidson, you didn't get
too far on this, did you?
Okay, that's I keep hearing that.
That's a
You hear that squeaking sound?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Are we gonna have to get pest control?
Is that what we need to do?
We might need to get pest control.
- Are you serious?
- Ah, squeakers.
You need help?
Yeah. Maybe you can pull up
all the flower shops in town
that sell Proteas?
Some kind of tropical flower.
They found pollen on the MDMA capsules.
So, we need to start
by finding a connection
between the flower shops
and Randy Bowen.
Maybe even pull in Hamm
Whoa. Where'd that come from?
No idea.
- Naz, it doesn't bother me.
- Are you serious with this? It's funny?
- Why don't you be funny with me, huh?!
- It's fine, it's fine!
It doesn't bother me.
Here, give it to me.
It's not 1982. This isn't Serpico.
I will not be bullied.
Go on snitch.
Ooh-ah!
Absolutely.
And you know what else, Davidson?
You act like a child,
I will have to tell the teacher.
- Ooh
- Asshole.
Ah!
- Yep.
- Do we know who did it?
I can't say for sure.
McConnell, Davidson.
Both of 'em!
- I'll open an investigation.
- Sorry.
I just can't believe that
there are cops out there
who think we should still be
covering up for each other.
I know, Kelly, I know.
You know, maybe you need a change?
Get out of Drug Squad.
There are other departments
you can do good work in.
Oh, no, no! It's not Drug Squad,
it's the entire mentality of this place!
Sorry.
Drug Squad is my home.
You know, me and Naz,
we bring a lot of integrity
to that team.
I just can't bail on him.
Fifteen years ago, I worked Vice,
and my partner was a racist prick.
He was a real bully.
He made me want to quit the force.
Right. So, what'd you do about it?
I became his boss.
And you still have
to clean up his messes.
But now, they pay me
a lot of money to do it.
A: why didn't anybody tell me
that a hangover feels this way?
B: Hamm is eating garlic bread
at his desk,
and it's just making me feel really
like, not good, like, really,
really nauseous.
And C: Detective Sergeant Greene
really seems to think
that he is my boss.
He is your boss.
Yeah, but he doesn't need to flaunt it.
Sorensen, he just, like, left me alone
and he kind of just, like,
let me do my thing.
Which you complained about ad nauseam.
I cannot believe I'm gonna
say this, but I was wrong.
Look, Nathan's a good guy.
He'll run a tight ship.
Perfect. That's great. You take him.
Anybody better than McConnell.
Sitting around, playing cards all day,
hiding rats in people's desks.
He put a rat in your desk?
'Cause of Keegan?
I f And I came in here with a
Duff, I'm s I'm so sorry.
That's all right.
- We used to it.
- Hm.
Anyway, I gotta get back to work.
Look, I found a lead on those MDMA pills
found on Randy Bowen's body.
Want to come?
I have to clear it with my
overbearing boss first, but yeah.
Hey, Kel?
I'll handle this, okay?
- Thank you.
- Mm-hm.
So, there are not many
flower shops in town
that carry Proteas,
especially this time of year.
But we did find
an interesting connection
between one flower shop
and your boy, Randy Bowen.
What's that?
When we were canvassing the area
after we found Randy Bowen's body,
I talked to a woman who actually
stayed at that motel
and she took a picture
of her fiancé
in the parking lot.
Why you would take a picture
in the parking lot is beyond me.
I mean, you could see the AC unit
Look at his complexion, like,
she needs to learn about filt
U-uh, anyhoo, this is Randy's room.
And this car was parked outside
for a few hours
three days before he was killed.
Okay.
Get over here.
I can't I can't see
the license plate.
- What does the sign thingy say?
- Ah!
That's Cortina Couriers.
And they have an account
with Gaia Flowers.
It's over on Wilson.
And Gaia Flowers carries Proteas.
Pro-te-as?
Proteas.
One of the only shops in town that does.
Okay. So, who's dealing the drugs?
Is it couriers, is it the flower shop?
Either, or.
And they could be in it together.
Okay, let's do this.
Let's go pay a visit to Gaia Flowers.
Naz, would you like to come along?
No, I can't, I, uh
I gotta go talk to Shanks.
She's investigating the department.
Investigating what department?
All departments.
Trying to root out this, uh,
old-boys' club
that seems to be rampant around here.
What old-boys' club?
It's not really a club,
it's more of a mentality, Barry.
People who ostracize and
intimidate anyone
who speaks out against a cop
that breaks the law.
Do you know any guys like that?
Hm. No I hate those guys.
Really?
Well, I mean don't we?
- Or-or do we like them?
- Anyway
when I'm done, Backbone Barry
and I over here will check out
- Cortina Couriers.
- Okay.
Didn't you say you're
a lone work addict?
Ouch!
I'm just saying.
Naz has done a lot of work on the case,
so I thought that maybe Oh!
Hey, DS Greene, we have a break
in the Stockwood case.
It involves recon at Gaia Flowers,
- so we were just gonna head out.
- Good. That's fine.
Just before you go,
I was wondering if I could
get your help solving a case.
I'm trying to identify
these late-night callers.
Hey, you!
Greene! Greeney-bean!
Bicycle shorts are dorky
and even I know that,
and I'm the biggest dork in town!
Bicycle shorts are so dorky,
plus you snore in your sleep!
Of course, he snores in his sleep,
'cause you can't snore
when you're awake.
- Yes, you can! I've seen it.
- No, you can't!
So, anyway,
you have good luck with whoever
your new Friday night is,
'cause whatever she is, she
can't hold a candle to The Duff.
Okay, okay, funny.
Ha, ha.
At least I was on your mind last night.
- Okay, maybe. A little bit.
- Duff
What?
I sounded really loose, like,
really relaxed.
- Maybe you should drink more.
- Maybe I should.
Uh-huh.
All right, let's head to Gaia Flowers.
You don't have to do this, you know.
It's not your mom's life
being threatened by the Mafia.
Yeah. I know. But
We're in this together, right?
You know, when my mom
does this MDMA deal,
she can get Buffalo off her back,
and then we can get out of this,
start fresh. Get our cut.
I think I gotta go to work,
or they're gonna kill me.
I gotta go hang out with
some really boring girls
and bag MDMA capsules, otherwise
I'm pretty sure
they're gonna kill me too.
- Hey.
- Hello.
I'm, uh, here to pick up
a Sunshine Special for
A. Conda.
A Sunshine Special
Yeah. There you go.
One Sunshine Special.
Cool.
- Thank you.
- De nada.
Hi! Yeah, those are for me.
I've been waiting out here
for over an hour already.
Anna Conda. Nice.
Your car is fire.
- Oh, hilarious.
- Loser, right?
I friggin' hate this town, man.
It's like a colonic,
without having to pay for it.
Oh, God.
Oh, it's Elliot. Hold on.
Shh, shh, shh.
- Hey, Mom.
- Hey, Elliot, how are you?
I'm driving your car
a lot.
- It's cool.
- Oh, yeah, really
it's not that bad, is it?
How are you? Are you doing okay?
Everything's all right?
How's living with your dad?
He's never around, so
I kinda have the place to myself. So
- Uh, I got a job too.
- What?
Elliot, you got a job?
That's so good! Where?
Uh
You know, I'll tell you
about it later, Mom.
I gotta go, but I love you, okay?
Okay. I love you so much. I miss you.
Okay, did I sound like I care?
'Cause I want to be cool,
like I don't care.
Yup. You sound like
you cared a little bit.
It's more believable, anyway.
He said my car was cool.
What? Pfft! Girl, he was lying to you.
There's nothing cool about that car,
which is why it suits you so well.
Although
last night, you were kinda cool.
Really? I was cool?
Like how? Like, how was I
- What'd I do? Like, what'd I say?
- W-w Not cool.
Not cool. You were
You were fun.
We had a good laugh.
That's great! Oh, God,
I wish I could remember it.
- Duff.
- Hm?
I think somebody has to go in there.
Can it be you?
Because I really don't want to move.
- Fine.
- Thank you.
Be right back.
I owe you.
Hola!
Welcome to Gaia Flowers,
where every bloom is a symbol of love.
- How can I help you today?
- Uh, I need some flowers
for a funeral.
Oh, I am so sorry. Who did you lose?
My third cousin. On my granddad's side.
Okay, well, uh, no matter
how distant, death stings.
Did you have anything in mind?
I don't know. Um
My cousin liked Proteas.
You got any of those?
I certainly do.
Very rare. Very beautiful.
Your cousin had excellent taste.
Ah!
Great. I'll take six.
Flowers
Bodhi, it's okay.
Just grab a broom from the closet.
The vase was old, baby,
I was due to replace it.
It's not a problem.
Ay, ay, ay.
It's the third one this month.
He's not the sharpest tool in the shed.
But he's loyal.
He comes to work every day, on time,
and stays until the last order
is filled.
Very hard to find workers like this.
And, uh who's delivering these?
Oh! We have a courier service.
Very reliable. Excellent drivers.
You're in good hands.
Okay.
I bet you some ketchup chips
it's that sketchy dude
he got working in the back.
Man, owner says he works
almost every day.
Bodhi something.
- I think we should run his name.
- Okay.
- Wai-wait, is that him?
- Uh, yep.
Well, well, well, will you look at that.
You were right! Okay.
Let's go arrest him, get him
to flip on the owner.
No, I don't think it's the owner.
I didn't catch that vibe from him.
Really? Is that what
your crystal ball says?
We don't have enough for an arrest.
W-we just witnessed a drug transaction.
No, we just witnessed Bodhi
put some "plant food"
into a bouquet of flowers.
Oh, I see, and he keeps
the plant food fresh
in his crotch. Great
Can we just do it my way?
I already got enough trouble
without you adding to it
'cause you gotta prove that
they should've made you the DS.
That is only a tiny bit
what this is about.
Look, how 'bout we just make it
about finding the drugs, okay?
How 'bout that?
And my crystal ball tells me
that that MDMA is connected to
Randy's murder.
Fine.
Let's follow that courier and
see where he's taking the drugs.
I saw your car out front.
Ah, yeah, it was a gift.
- I was gonna trade it in.
- Nice.
I think it's genius.
No one's ever gonna
pull you over in that thing.
Yeah, that's why I kept it.
Hey, uh
Randy's partner, Tiggy, needs to
you know, talk to you.
I don't know a Tiggy.
Uh, yeah, she's cool.
She's, like the brains.
Randy's just the muscle.
- So, who has the connection to Buffalo?
- That's Tiggy.
She wanted to fill you in
on a few things and
she told me to give you this.
Okay.
Thank you.
Wait. Where you going?
Duff, where are you going?!
Hey. Were you just trying
to deliver those to my address?
28? You Finley Silva?
Yeah, that's me. Thank you.
Thank you so much. Oh, my God!
Who are these from?
Beautiful!
Layna! Come on!
- Get up!
- No.
Come on.
You're forgetting that Randy was
a horrible human being.
Well, I was sleeping
with that horrible human being
for a month, so
I might've gotten a little attached.
Okay, well, he might've got
a little killed,
and now I gotta fix it, okay?
So, pick up that snotty tissue
and take the ugly snake
back to your room.
That's probably Nelson. Come on.
Hi, you must be Nelson. Come on in.
I gotta be somewhere in a half-hour.
Okay. We'll make this quick.
This is my sister.
She's a little down because
you know, Randy
fell off his perch, as they say.
But he brought me up to speed
on your business deal.
I know he fronted you 50,000.
I will be filling Randy's shoes.
I'm sorry. I don't understand.
Oh
I thought you'd have heard.
Randy's dead.
It's very sad.
But before that happened,
he said that you would be
upping your volume
and we will be bringing
your MDMA across the border.
See, Randy made this deal on my behalf.
Bill Misiano gave me the impression
that he was running things.
How do you know about Bill Misiano?
I didn't.
Until he reached out to me.
Said that he was Randy's
primary investor and
and that the 50 grand was his.
What?!
Misiano wants to work with me. Direct.
And I checked him out. He's legit. So
I'm not sure what you have to offer me.
I'm thinking the less people
involved, the better.
But my condolences.
Aw. Thanks.
I appreciate it.
What kind of person
leaves drugs on their doorstep
for an hour?
My guess is that kind of person.
Oh, girl, we are gonna rave tonight!
Good thing no one stole
your merchandise.
Tonight is your lucky night.
'Cause you, my friend, are getting
a personal tour of where we work.
Women are supposed to stick together.
I don't think that blanket
statement always applies.
Well, this place is sexist.
And I'm filing a lawsuit.
So, you think we wouldn't have
arrested you for drugs
if you were a man?
I think a man wouldn't have
spent a night in jail
with nary a tampon to be found.
I don't think a man would be
able to find a tampon either.
There you go.
I was being metaphorical.
That's probably why I didn't follow.
A man wouldn't need a tampon, would he?
Gender is more complicated
than that, Finley.
You should know better, you're a nurse.
I wonder what your bosses will think
when they find out you were
skipping work to attend a rave
wearing the worst outfit
in the history of the planet.
And now you've got a drug charge.
- Okay. This is vintage.
- Is it?
Yeah. And you're blackmailing me.
We're not blackmailing you,
we're offering you a deal.
Okay. Demanding a benefit
in exchange for
not revealing compromising
information about me,
that is blackmail.
God
Oh.
Check it out. It kinda is blackmail.
Oh. I don't feel good about that.
I don't feel good about that.
Maybe we should
- Yeah.
- Just leave. Yeah.
A criminal record is a bitch,
but I'm sure your job
will be fine with it.
Wait!
Where you going?
You don't want to tell us
who the drugs are from,
we got better things to do.
So, we're gonna do it.
Okay. I don't know who
the drugs are from.
But I can show you how I get them.
Phone!
It's all done through an app.
My friend told me about it.
You just order the Sunshine Special,
capitalize the Es, like this,
pay through the app,
drugs show up at your house.
Just like that.
Just like that.
Just like that.
- No, I hear what you're saying.
- That was a good little tag-team.
It was a good little tag-team, but Duff,
- I gotta be straight with you.
- What?
There is no way Lorenzo Day
doesn't know that his shop is
running drugs if people are
ordering them through his app.
We should've grabbed him and
Bodhi while we had the chance.
Apparently, you're dying
to say, "I told you so."
So, just say it.
- I am not a gloater
- Mm.
And if I was a gloater,
I'd be gloating all the time,
because even though people doubt me,
- I am usually right about everything.
- Oh, my God.
You're gloating about not gloating.
Huh. That's weird.
Looks like an outside site
has gained unauthorized access
- to Gaia Flowers' app.
- What does that mean?
Means the app's been compromised.
It's called a blunt-force attack.
Someone exploits a loophole
in the app's configuration
so they can manipulate it
to do what they want.
So Lorenzo could be innocent.
Hm. How interesting.
Okay, well who's doing it, then?
That's what I'm going to find out.
They deliver for Gaia.
Yeah, well, they also hacked
Gaia's app using an onion site.
I'm sorry,
can you translate that for us?
It means it's fake.
The top layer of the courier
site presents legit,
but underneath, it's linked
to the dark web.
When someone places an order
for a Sunshine Special
using the flower shop's app,
it alerts the Cortina website.
Okay, well, what about Gaia?
Nah, it just looks like
a regular order to them.
Except the Es are capitalized.
- Oh, my gosh!
- Yeah, to tip off Bodhi
that it's a drug order.
We saw him put the drugs
in the bouquet that we took off Finley.
Oh, so he's Cortina's inside man.
Oh, someone just logged on.
Wait, from the courier's?
Well, shut it down,
- they'll know we're cops.
- I know.
My IP's routed to look like
it's coming from Copenhagen.
- They'll think I'm a hacker.
- No, no, don't engage. Don't!
Stop. Don't engage.
- Do-don't engage!
- It's the only way to download
what they have on their server.
Ah. They're hitting me with malware.
Hit 'em back!
They're trying to intercept
the download.
- Oh! Press "escape"! Escape!
- They're trying to kick me out.
- Hit "escape" again!
- Okay.
What? They want to play, I like to play.
Okay, okay, okay.
Can you all stop pressing
"escape"? Please!
- Sorry.
- Sorry.
- Come on, almost there.
- You can do this.
Oh, come on, don't do this to me!
Whoo!
Now that, that is
a sport that I could watch.
I mean, what a rush, huh?
Am I right or am I right?
It's not a sport, ding-dong.
If it was, we just lost.
Not necessarily.
Did we get what we needed?
We sure did.
- Boom!
- Nice.
I want you to go through this
with a fine-tooth comb.
Owner, employees, everything.
I want everyone affiliated
with Cortina Couriers.
Yes. On it.
W-wait, why does it feel like
we're just, like, following orders?
'Cause he just did his computer magic.
- And he's your boss.
- Yeah, but I
It-it's still annoying.
What are you going through?
I am going through Cortina's
transaction history. You?
Uh, the employee list.
Well, that's gonna be easy.
Bunch of delinquents and degenerates.
Generalize much?
Reprobates, rapscallions,
hooligans, ne'er-do-wells,
layabouts, scallywags,
all great words, d'you notice that?
Sam
I was joking.
I'm having some fun.
Remember, it's me, it's cool, fun Sam.
I don't care about that.
Where did you say your son got a job?
I don't know. He didn't say. Why?
Because he's on this list.
That's a mistake.
I don't know.
How many Elliot Wazowskis are out there?
This is a mistake. Uh So
What are we gonna do?
No.
You aren't gonna do anything.
Maybe we could just
take his name off the list.
Are you really asking me to do that?
No.
Sam.
- I have to
- Wait. W-where you going?
- I just have to have a minute.
- Sam.
I just need a minute, please.
I Will you tell Shanks for me?
And just be the
W And because I-I
Can I? I have to have a minute.
Mm!
- Yeah?
- Steve?
Steve, where did Elliot get his job?
Some courier place, why?
I can't understand you.
What did you say? What'd you say?
I'm eating.
Listen. Listen to me right now.
Elliot might be dealing drugs.
Okay?
So, I need you to roll up
your lawyer sleeves
and actually defend someone.
What are you talking about?
Oh, my God, Steve, please!
I can't understand one word
that you are saying right now!
Hey, did you leave me
weird phone messages last night?
We need to bring in Wazowski's son.
Why?
We're chasing the MDMA found
on Randy Bowen's body.
It led us to a courier company,
and Elliot's name
is on the employee list.
M'kay. This is fine.
This is gonna be fine.
You keep her away from this.
I'll send Hamm out to pick him up,
bring him down here.
I don't think this is gonna be fine.
It's always fine. 'Till it's not fine.
Hamm! Where are ya?
You don't have
anything in the car, do you?
Nah. It should be fine.
I think I know this guy.
Hey, uh
- Was I speeding or something?
- No, no.
God, this thing is really small, huh?
Yeah
Um
You're gonna have to exit the car, son.
You don't have to do that. Come on back.
Hey, I'll call you in a bit, okay?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, go.
I hope everything's okay.
Yeah
- Hey, Sam.
- Hey.
We found your name on the
uh Cortina Courier employee list.
Yeah, I told you I got a job.
How do you do it?
How do you mess up every little thing
I have bent over backwards on?
I work my ass off.
I have given you
every opportunity.
- You take it all for granted. That you do!
- Wazowski. Wazowski!
- You've worked for nothing!
- Wazowski. Get your ass back in OC!
I'm gonna be taking him in Interview,
and you are not going anywhere
until we find out exactly
how you're involved.
- Involved with what?
- Go!
This is whack! I need to make a call.
No, you don't. Give me that.
Hamm, get her out of here.
And you, come with me.
Come on, Sam. Please.
We're gonna have a little talk.
Businesses tend to
criticize their competitors.
This is bad form.
Instead, we should praise
our competitors.
- Learn from them.
- Mom!
Cooperate with them to their advantage.
- Mom!
- It will help you
in the long run.
Jesus, Jackie!
Give me a heart attack, why don't you?
The cops just picked up Elliot.
Okay? I don't know what this is about.
They said they needed to talk to him.
This is about his job.
I bet you anything it's about his job
with the Cortina Couriers.
Bet the cops are onto them.
Okay. Whatever this is about,
this is not good.
We cannot catch a break.
No, baby.
This is our break.
You don't seem
to be the least bit worried.
Well, I don't really know why I'm here.
Listen, you might pull the wool
over your mother's eyes on the regular,
but you're not gonna do that with me.
We're gonna get real. Right now.
- Okay.
- Okay!
Are you still going out
with that Jackie Sullivan?
Is this about her?
'Cause she has nothing to do
with this.
Jackie's a good person.
- I mean she's amazing, actually.
- Wazowski!
I know you're not watching.
I know you're not in there, watching.
Because I distinctly told you
to stay away from this.
Told you.
- What's your job
- Come on. Let's go.
I can't.
What's the worst that can happen?
- He can be involved.
- Okay.
So, say that he is.
Does it mean that
you can't love him anymore?
Does it mean that you're a bad mom?
No.
We can love people who do bad things.
We just can't save them, Sam.
Come on, let's go.
Hey, uh, I found
something on Gaia Flowers.
It's a bill of lading.
A shipment of flowers is slated
to go to Buffalo today.
The truck'll be stateside by sundown.
Question is, are they delivering
drugs hidden in flowers,
or are they just delivering flowers?
Look, Bodhi Malvo took
the shipment order,
so my guess is they're exporting
across the border.
- Mm-hm.
- Randy Bowen was probably the connect.
- Yep.
- So, should we call it in to FBS?
No, I want to catch the driver
before he leaves the flower shop.
Okay. Let's get these guys.
- Yep.
- I'm gonna go with Duff.
Wazowski, look, I don't think
you should go.
Please.
Duff, please, I can't stay here.
Hey, look, it's me,
operating in the grey zone.
I'll follow your lead.
I promise.
- I promise.
- Okay.
- My lead.
- Yes.
- blind eye to anything.
- Nope.
Sit up straight, for God's sakes.
This is serious.
Tiggy?
Wh-what are you doing here?
What do you want?
It's more about what you want right now.
Or should I say need.
Bet you think you're clever,
side-stepping me,
making a direct deal with Buffalo.
But I happen to know
the police are onto you.
Your business is busted.
It was probably the cops
hacking the system this morning.
Goddammit!
Buffalo's expecting a shipment, right?
So, when that doesn't show up,
Misiano's not going to be happy.
Have you seen Misiano not happy?
It's not pretty.
But now, your business
is on the cops' radar.
One wrong move, and you all
go down in flames.
You make excellent product.
And I admire that. I do.
And in turn,
I hope you'll respect what
I bring to the table.
Importing,
exporting,
and information.
In the spirit of collaboration,
I'm willing to save your ass.
Of course
I'm gonna have to renegotiate
my cut. But
those are just details. Right?
Hey!
GTPD!
We have a warrant to search your van.
What's going on?
What's going on?!
Hey, careful with that!
You got anything?
- Not yet. Anything up there?
- Nothing.
Who's gonna pay for this?
Bodhi Malvo, open up.
GTPD. We've got a warrant
for your arrest.
- There's nothing here.
- This doesn't make any sense.
Where are the drugs?
No!
Great. Hm.
Must be hiding.
My favourite place to hide is the dryer.
Or somebody tipped him off.
- Naz?
- Yeah. Somebody tipped him off.
Yeah. I bet I know who.
Hey, don't go there.
It wasn't Elliot, right?
He's been with Shanks all day.
And didn't you tell me
Shanks took his phone?
It's okay.
Come on.
But I wiped it down clean.
If any mud gets on 'em,
I take 'em off right away.
Because, you know, there's nothing
like clean running shoes, right?
Ladybug, is that you?
Welcome to Buffalo.
Yeah, it's me!
Disappointed it's not your
new best friend, Nelson Lam?
What, are you kidding me?
I'm always rooting for you!
You should be thanking me.
If it wasn't for your little "ladybug,"
Nelson would be in cuffs.
The cops are onto his route.
Push came to shove,
Nelson would've turned you in.
Boys, see that? You see?
Are you listening to this?
This is what I'm talking about.
This, right here.
They're so sick and tired of me
going on about
"women this, women that."
None of them voted for Hillary.
How'd that work out for you?
I don't give a damn who they voted for.
I care that you tried
to double-cross me.
I don't want to work with men
I can't trust.
Well, Tiggy
I'm a snake.
It's a fact.
Everybody knows that about me.
I will take your ear off,
I will take your neck off,
unless you do things for me.
So, the question is,
are you gonna be my feast,
or are you gonna be my nest?
Nelson would've screwed the pooch
if it wasn't for you,
so now, he's my feast.
You saved the day, so now,
you're gonna be my nest.
That's it.
It's that simple.
Come on. Let's go have some fun.
Let's have a good time.
You-you deserve it. Come on.
Come on.
I needed that.
You know, as far as burritos go,
it's, like, it's not bad.
- You know?
- Mm.
- Your child was hungry.
- Uh-huh.
I drilled him for hours,
he never cracked.
What are you thinking?
I'm thinking that if he's lying,
- he's pretty damn good at it.
- I already know that.
Let's just keep an eye on him, okay?
Okay.
Eat all of it.
- I spent money on that.
- Yes, ma'am.
Oh, I think that's Dad.
He's probably outside. I'll
- Yeah.
- Elliot.
If you have gotten yourself
into something
that you can't get out of,
I can get you out.
I love you, Mom.
Okay? I really do.
I'll see you soon.
Yeah
Third cousin on your grandfather's side.
I have to admit,
your commitment to grief
was exceptional.
I'm Detective Kelly Duff.
Hello, Kelly.
We're investigating a courier company
that we suspect is trafficking
illegal narcotics
using your floral arrangements.
What?
I'm sorry. Am I in some sort of trouble?
- Do I need a lawyer here?
- No. But
we need to know everything you know
about the courier that picked up
your latest shipment to Buffalo.
Of course. I'll tell you everything.
But I was only there
for the second pick-up.
- There were two pick-ups?
- Yes!
Cortina, they called last minute,
they made special arrangements to have
the first half of the shipment
picked up an hour earlier.
Look, you see?
My employee, Bodhi Malvo.
He took care of everything.
Bodhi
Give me one second.
- Can I borrow this?
- Uh, of course. Yes.
- Uh, just
- Be right back.
Uh, okay. Um
Don't check the messages.
Did you?
- Do what?
- Did you go?
Mm. On occasion.
Okay, well, I better get going.
So
That's your new Friday night?
She could be.
She's not limiting things
to one night a week.
So, I snore in my sleep?
You've been listening.
Oh, I listen.
There's just an awful lot
you haven't been saying.
I didn't know about your promotion.
You didn't tell me
about your new Friday night.
Anything else you want to share?
Honestly, I didn't know you cared.
Nice flowers.
Sorry for your loss.
Yeah. So am I.
Do you see something?
Y I-I'm looking for the
other half of that shipment
- Lorenzo was talking about.
- Mm-hm.
Cortina's.
They didn't cross the border,
but look
There was another shipment of flowers
that went to Buffalo tonight.
- It was another courier truck?
- Nope.
Sullivan Logistics.
Tiggy Sullivan's company,
mother of Jackie Sullivan,
our key informant on the Stockwood case,
and your son's girlfriend.
I knew something was up with that girl.
- I knew it. I knew it!
- No, no, no, no.
'Cause we looked into Tiggy.
She was clean. She was spotless.
Now, she's about to be the stain
on both of our reputations.
- Tiggy Sullivan.
- Tiggy Sullivan.
