Reef Break (2019) s01e09 Episode Script

The Hohenzollern Collection

1 Previously on "Reef Break" FBI.
She's with me.
A little like the old days? Minus the part where you were pretending to be a crook and me actually being one.
I'm never gonna change, you know? That's why it didn't work.
This is not as casual - as we keep saying it is.
- Maybe.
- Your boyfriend's a cop, right? - Wyatt is not my boyfriend.
We are friends with benefits.
Isn't Petra Torrance your protégé? She lives in your house.
Oh, that's my house, actually.
Not anymore.
Nice weight distribution.
But your stance is a little bit wide, Cat.
Oh, well, thank you for the unsolicited critique.
I'm sorry is there something I can do for you? Betty Ann Miller.
Uh, okay.
And it's more of what can I do for you, Miss Chambers.
Have a seat.
Oh, for what? Story time? Call it whatever you want, dear.
I'm an insurance representative for the Hohenzollern family.
Oh, the Hohenzollern family.
That's well, your appearance here and the crochet, it all makes perfect sense now.
The Hohenzollerns are one of the oldest and most infamous families in Germany.
Recently, $8.
2 million worth of jewels have been stolen from their castle.
Well, that's a solid opener.
And you're here because Your reputation precedes you.
Somehow, the jewels have found their way - here to the Reef.
- Really? For a 10% finder's fee, I want you to steal them back for me.
Make it 20%, and I'll listen to the rest of your story.
Denian, you in here? Jones, you made it.
Now, this is Dr.
Jacoby the buyer I told you about.
So, these millions of dollars' worth of jewels.
I'm supposed to get them how, exactly? Even as we speak, a Russian operative named Jones, the man who stole those jewels, is selling them to a very wealthy businessman who is, in fact, an undercover FBI agent.
Uh-huh.
Last person that stared at me that long asked me to marry him.
Once the jewels have been seized, they'll be bagged and tagged, at your local Reef police department's evidence lockup.
I like this guy.
Now, how about we take a look at what I came here to see? And you will extract them from there.
Alright.
Why me? There's plenty of thieves and vagabonds on the Reef.
Yes, but none of them have your particular set of skills.
Well, I am a pretty good safecracker, if I do say so myself.
I meant playing both the RPD detective and your local FBI agent.
You're talking about my love life.
Pretty skilled at that, too, although I am only sleeping with one of them.
And what is to stop me from telling both of them about this conversation? $1.
6 million and your complete lack of conscience.
Wow Crochets by day, double-crosses by night.
You're redefining the middle-aged modern woman.
Where's the sapphire? We settle on a price for these first.
Not until I see the ring.
Now, how does 30% sound? Strange, considering typically, I have to haggle just to get 20.
I'm not the kind of guy that likes to screw around.
I believe in a fair price for a fair product.
You don't look so good.
You sure you're alright there, Denian? Just the heat.
I prefer less tropical destinations.
Hmm.
You wearing a wire? Go, go, go! Police! Put your weapons down! Wyatt! Heart attack! S.
W.
A.
T.
requesting ambulance at location.
He's gone.
How well did you know Denian? Never met the two-faced bastard before.
Don't much care he's dead.
Who hired you to steal the jewels? Steal? I found them in the park, mate.
So how'd you and Denian connect, then? Never did before today.
The meet was brokered by a, uh A broad, I was gonna say.
Like bloody Frank Sinatra.
You got a name? - A description? - Never met her.
So why'd you call her that, then? A broad? Spoke to her on the phone, mate, that one time.
Something about her voice reeked of gin martinis and menthol cigarettes.
Hey.
Why'd you go so easy on him? I believe him.
You know who he's talking about, don't you? Uh, give me an hour.
I want to run down a hunch.
Fine by me.
Hey, Cat.
Hey.
I got a call this morning from Jay-Row Wetsuits.
They've offered me to compete in the Honalua Classic.
Wow! Honalua! That's a regional PSA event.
You're not even on the tour.
Yeah, well, Lacey Rodes is out injured, so it opened up a second wildcard slot.
This is my big break.
But they don't pay for flights or accommodation or anything, so do you think I could get a loan from you? You're not ready.
Wow.
Listen, if you want a career, you do what the best do, okay? You work your way through the juniors, you qualify on points.
You let the sponsors fight over you.
Yeah, but if I win Honalua, I qualify automatically.
You're not gonna win Honalua.
You're not even gonna make it through the first heat.
They called me, Cat.
- They saw me compete at the Empire Pro.
- Yes! But you're not ready, okay? The wetsuit company wants to make money.
They're not paying your flight or accommodation.
It You're not ready.
Are you jealous? You know, maybe I am jealous.
Maybe I wish I could go back and do it the right way myself and I'd have a different career.
So, learn from my mistakes.
Here's my advice Work hard, qualify on points.
So, you're not gonna give me the loan? No, I'm not gonna loan you the money.
I'm giving you the right advice here, Petra! Betty Ann Miller.
Not even a "Hello.
" Oh, right.
Hello.
You look lovely today.
I especially like your hair, and that purple dress is my favorite.
Better? Back to Betty.
Middle-aged, hair that doesn't move, she crochets.
She's kind of got a "Stepford Wives" meets "Goodfellas" in a pistachio-green pantsuit kind of vibe.
Says she's an insurance agent.
You know her? That woman's called herself a lot of things over the years insurance agent, energy consultant, cultural attaché.
She's CIA, right? She's been off and on the Reef for years, has a way of getting exactly what she wants.
- Like you.
- Interesting.
What are you doing with her, Cat? I'm not Oh.
Hey, sis.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
So, I guess I'll just, um leave you two to it.
Uh You've been avoiding me.
Listen, our little rendezvous in the bathroom, it was I mean, it was really hot, but, you know, that's all it was sex in a bathroom stall.
That's all I can offer right now, like I said, - I'm I'm busy.
- Right.
Well, barring a reenactment, would it hurt to have an adult conversation every now and again? Conversation is overrated.
You seem kind of tired.
What's up? Thank you.
I was up all night working a case with Jake.
- What kind of case? - International smuggling.
International smuggling? What, like crocodiles and baby panda bears? No, come on.
It's much cooler.
It's a sapphire as big as the Ritz.
Really? Well, that is fantastic.
- What is? - Oh, I don't know just that you and Jake are working together, like, getting along, not fighting about me.
Whoop! Look at the time.
Have a good night.
I will call you.
- I wasn't - I will call you, I promise.
- Yeah, but I'm not - I promise.
I wasn't done.
Hello? I take offense that you would ask the Lieutenant Governor about me rather than just asking me yourself, dear.
Well, relax, Big Brother.
I'm all-in.
Good.
Meet me at Goldmere Beach in an hour.
Seems we have a bit of a ticking clock.
Your boyfriend's bosses over at the police station want those jewels off this island ASAP before somebody tries to steal them.
Yeah, I can't imagine why.
Hm.
Means the goods will be transferred to Munich sooner than I expected.
You have 48 hours before those jewels say bye-bye.
Who's that, the broad? Yep.
Maeve Devlin.
Old-school fence.
Always liked the high-end stuff.
Yeah, well, from her file, looks like she stopped being relevant back when Well, back when you still were.
You mean back in the day when it was just Cat and I and no you? Oof.
Moving on.
I think we should drop in on this Maeve.
Well, that's the idea.
But first, I checked Jones' cellphone records against Maeve's.
- Three calls this week.
- Yep.
And while I was doing that, what exactly were you doing? I was with my sister.
Oh.
You should've said.
How is Ana? You just said "Ana" instead of "Lieutenant Governor.
" Maybe I'm a better detective than you give me credit for.
So, what exactly are your intentions with my sister? You don't really expect me to answer that, now, do you? Yeah, good point.
Uh, Detective Cole? Got a Cat Chambers up front asking for you.
Oh, that's okay.
You can send her back.
I can't.
She's in handcuffs.
Come on.
Jake! If you two move in and get bunk beds together, I'm officially leaving the Reef.
Well, it doesn't look like you're doing much of anything right now.
Oh, you think this is funny? Well, kind of.
What'd you do, anyway? I ran a stop sign.
You don't get arrested for that.
Uh, well, you do if you rip up the, uh, officer's ticket and throw it in his face.
That stop sign was not there a week ago.
Look, just pay the disorderly conduct summons and you can leave, okay? Got 500 bucks I can borrow? Well, I got, uh Ooh.
$12.
Listen, there's an ATM a couple blocks away, okay? So could you hurry up? Because these cuffs are starting to hurt, and not in a good way.
Well, maybe we should give her some time to cool off.
What do you think, Special Agent Elliot? I heard criminals can find a degree of solace in the peace and quiet of a jail cell.
Wise.
Wow.
I expected this from him, but I didn't expect it from you.
Hey, uh, take her to the downstairs lockup, officer.
- It's a lot quieter down there.
- Are you kidding me? I am starving.
You want to get a bite to eat? You know what? I do feel kind of peckish.
You got to be kidding me.
You both suck! Uh, what are you looking at? What are you looking at? - Nothing.
- Nothing, huh? Never heard them described that way.
Let's go.
Bartender, I'm gonna need another martini.
You better get one for Special Agent Elliot, too.
Good to see you, too, Maeve.
Mm-hmm.
- Now, this is Detective - Detective Cole.
Always know your competition.
Right back at you.
So, what do you two fellas need with me? You know him.
Is that supposed to be a question? Oh, not when we have his sworn testimony and both of your cellphone records.
Ah, this younger generation.
They can't get to the corner without getting pinched.
So, who did you bust along with him? Okay, I'll play along.
Paul Denian.
How's the old fool doing? Well, he stopped getting older, for one thing.
Heart attack.
So his ticker finally gave out.
So, Denian was working for you? Busted him on a penny stock scheme a few weeks ago.
Was looking to work off his charges.
Creative, but lousy at math, that one was.
So, we got one in the morgue and, uh, one in jail, so I'm not sure what you need from me.
Well, Jones is just a worker bee.
- We're after the Queen.
- Okay.
So I got one in the favor bank.
Let's just say I made some introductions.
And? Jones got himself into some trouble a couple of years back in Moscow.
Would've found himself in Siberia without a coat, except he had a friend with access to the Kremlin.
What kind of friend? The kind that was born in St.
Petersburg, Florida, not St.
Petersburg, Russia.
Fine's been paid.
You're free to go.
Well, it's about time.
So, who paid it? Jake or Wyatt? One more guess.
Looks like I owe you 500 bucks.
- Consider it payment.
- For what? The answers you're about to give me, starting with how you managed to get yourself locked in jail.
Oh, that's gonna cost you more than 500 bucks.
First, you ask me about Betty, then you get yourself thrown in jail deliberately.
- What's going on, Cat? - Nothing is going on.
I ran a stop sign.
That's it.
You really don't want to tell me? Hey, thank you for bailing me out.
I owe you one! Oh, hey.
You know if you want to do a frontside 180 - Step aside.
- No, really, it's Watch and learn.
Watch the master at work here.
So Here's the deal.
You want to land it? Slide your front foot forward, keep your weight over the top of the board.
- You're welcome.
- Thank you! What the hell is that? What is this? Are you dealing? You wouldn't give me the money.
Besides, it's only Adderall.
- They sell it in school like Skittles.
- Really? Well, let me tell you something.
If you get busted and you will they will charge you for each individual pill, intent to distribute.
You go to jail.
You're just trying to scare me.
- I can take care of myself.
- Let me ask you something.
Where are you hiding these little pills? My boathouse? My property? Do you understand what that does? What position that puts me in? I have spent my whole life staying out of jail.
I sure as hell don't intend to go to jail 'cause you're an idiot.
Well, that's okay.
I didn't ask you to.
Thank you.
Whoa.
Well, hey, there, Betty.
Just you know, feel free.
Make yourself at home.
Where do you keep the Himalayan salt? Oh, you know, over here, right next to the arsenic, but choose wisely, because they're in the exact same jar.
Nice work at the precinct today.
Way to work your detective/lover.
I'm impressed that you're impressed.
But could you please not call him my lover? Red or white? - So, what'd you find? - Okay, well, the evidence is kept in a vault in the basement, which I could probably No, I could definitely break into it if I can get past the security cameras.
Well, maybe these blueprints will help.
Wow.
How'd I have my ways.
Alright.
This right here is a problem.
- Mm-hmm.
- The desk sergeant.
So you just need someone to run interference for you.
Well, yeah.
I mean, that would be great.
- Who is that? - Your interference.
Oh, hi.
Wow! I love what I did with the place.
But you know what? I think we need to focus a little bit more on this mess.
- Are you kidding me? - Don't worry.
Tori's here to help.
Deputy Chief of Station Betty Ann Miller, American Embassy, Moscow.
So, Jones was Betty's asset.
How's Maeve fit into all this? Doing what she does best coordinated the buyer, then profited from both sides.
Says here that Betty was recently in Munich.
Oh, well, that makes sense.
- Setting up the score.
- Yeah.
And the CIA, they have some history in running guns and drugs to fund black ops.
Stolen jewels just seems a safer way to go.
Right.
So, how do we track a spy who doesn't want to be found? Old-fashioned trade craft.
Shake the bushes, hit up the street cops, pass the photo around.
If someone's seen her, they'll talk.
So, let's go find this Betty Ann Miller.
Okay, that's your way in right there.
Alright, but look at this.
That tunnel does not show up on any of these new prints.
Oh, right.
Looky here.
Okay, see? It goes all the way up and into the RPD.
During the war, resistance members used to sneak in and steal the Japanese's weapons.
That's incredible.
So, how do I come into all of this? Alright, so, right here is a secret tunnel that goes all the way under and into the police department.
Mmm, no.
No.
No way.
I don't do tunnels.
Oh, I'm not even gonna touch that.
- Alright, so, look, right in here.
- Mm-hmm.
In the hallway, cameras, right? No blind spots none.
Which means I'm completely exposed.
So we need someone to distract the desk sergeant while I'm down there until I can get in and I can get out.
Okay.
It all makes sense now.
Who better to bewitch an alpha police officer than the princess of Reef Island herself? Excuse me.
Can I help you with something? Hmm.
Now what's got you all wound up? I, um I-I lost my dog.
What do you want me to do about it? I don't know speak to a detective? Isn't Isn't that what they do? Find missing dogs? People.
They find missing people.
- Or dead ones.
- Okay, well, what about a dead dog? What if my dead dog is missing? Look, ma'am, go to the ASPCA.
Or post some pictures on Instagram.
Worked for my kid when he lost his bike.
Did I say "dog"? I meant a cat.
Which is it? - Did it go "woof" or "meow"? - Both.
The The The cat ran out first because the the damn dog was chasing it.
Just a typical day at my house.
Now, hold on! This is a dangerous island for a cat.
Wolves, raccoons, mongooses.
You better get a description out of the little fellow right away.
We can put it on the radio.
Wait, um my cat has leukemia.
Stage five.
Yes.
Ah, the double-crossing CIA agent.
Isn't that a bit of a cliché? Can we bypass the witty repartee? It's fun and new for me, but it's a trifle bit exhausting.
Jewels, please.
How did you You know, if you pull the trigger on that, every cop in this place will be all over you I didn't hear a thing.
Did you? Nope.
Guess maybe not.
Tori Eastland, she's watching every camera in this joint, so you Jamming device.
Bought me 60 seconds.
Which is about all I need.
Ring, too, sweetheart.
Wow, you're a real mercenary.
But a rich one.
You know, it's nice to see that you haven't lost your touch.
Hey, listen, I know, a cold-blooded killer when I see one, and you are not it.
You know what, dear? You're absolutely correct.
No, no, no! No, no! I knew you were bluffing! Calling to ream me out some more? - No, thank you.
- Petra, listen to me.
Don't hang up, okay? Don't hang up.
Don't hang up.
I Do you want to learn how to break into a vault? Is that a trick question? Go to the beach house, okay? Under the sink in the kitchen are a whole bunch of lockpick kits.
This is the house that you accused me of stashing my drug empire in.
I happen to be locked inside a vault, and I can't breathe.
So could we fight about this later? So, jail time for me is a small price to pay to secure your freedom? You do see, like, the irony here, right? And I would be happy to discuss that with you once I'm out of the vault.
What's in it for me, again? More money than you will ever make dealing drugs.
How about that? Deal.
Where's the vault? Nothing yet.
It would be a lot easier if you had a photo.
- Oh, my God.
- What's wrong? Hey, hey, Petra.
Hey, I'm here.
Like, outside the door? Yeah.
Okay, well, it's about time.
I just This absolutely does not give you any kind of license at all to break and enter except for this one time.
- Understood? - Yep, loud and clear.
His little paws and whiskers out there all alone I want you to open the kit.
- It'll be okay, sweetheart.
- What What What was that? Did you drop it? Are you kidding me? - I can still leave, remember? - I'm sorry.
So some support would be nice.
Thank you.
- I'm fine.
- Okay.
Sorry.
Now, I want you to slide the tension wrench right Which one is that? It's It's the one that looks like the letter "S.
" Now, I want you to push the rake pick it's got the squiggly lines all the way in, as well.
Oh, crap.
Oh, crap, what, Petra? How can a steel pin break in two? Please don't tell me you broke the wrench off inside the lock.
Oh, well.
Oh, you know what? That's not funny.
That's not funny at all.
No, stop.
Whooooooa.
No, no, no, no.
- We got to get out of here.
- Oh, and this one here, is called Scratchy because she's got these, like, paws Oh, my goodness! Wow, I just realized they're not lost.
I just left them at the groomer's.
I-I'm so embarrassed.
Wow.
You guys have been such a rock for me in my time of need.
Thank you.
So, Betty Ann Miller.
Can you tell us what you remember about her? Oh, she was a straight 10, dude.
- Say what? - Oh.
Not like that.
That's what we call a great tipper.
Oh, right.
Well, besides that, did you notice anything else about her? Uh She kept her room clean.
Uh drank diet soda.
That's fantastic.
You've been a real help, Nate.
Come on, Nate, think.
Sorry, man.
She's just like a regular tourist here to see the sights and surf.
Whoa.
Hang on, hang on, hang on.
She surfed? She must have.
Never seen someone check out the tide so much.
At what spot? Going on a trip? Oh.
How did you find me? Well After I broke out of the vault, you mean? I knew that you weren't going to play your true hand until the very end, so you know, I made preparations.
Mm.
It's called a LoJack Bluetooth.
Look, there we are, right here on the beach.
A LoJack, huh? Good for you.
This little spot right here, this used to be the drop-off point for contraband and guns during the '80s.
Life was a bit simpler then, Cat.
The decade that gave us crack cocaine and John Hughes.
What are you doing here, Betty? This is my last rendezvous.
Mm-hmm.
I made a deal with some oligarchs.
They owe me a favor.
And in return, I get safe passage to a very glamorous but undisclosed country of our choosing.
If I'm gonna be forced into retirement, I'm gonna do it on my own terms.
Good for you.
So, the CIA is putting you out to pasture, huh? After a long, storied career - of loyalty and bravery - Mm.
I would have to say I think that really sucks.
I have great admiration for you.
You've got a very good head on those shoulders.
Likewise.
No one's given me a run for my money like you did in a very long time.
You should go.
Oh, no, I'm not leaving, - without my 30%.
- 20%.
30% after what you put me through.
Cat, I'm a woman of my word.
I'll wire you the money in two days.
But right now, you need to go.
Uh shoot.
What Are these guys with you? Well, if it isn't the devil in Dolce.
What, did you bring your daddy's security guards? What, are you gonna make a citizen's arrest? Won't have to.
By the time the police show up, they'll find the both of you shot dead, having turned on each other after stealing the jewels from lockup.
Revenge is frickin' awesome.
You're double-crossing me? Cat Chambers stole my house from me.
I'm sure as hell not letting her walk away with those jewels, too.
Jewels, please.
Thank you.
As good as these jewels feel in my hand, it feels so much better knowing that I outsmarted the Cat Chambers.
- Hands up! - Or not.
Officers, we caught these two trying to escape.
Stand down.
Turner? Put 'em where I can see 'em.
I'm not putting my hands up, Wyatt! Officer, cuffs.
You're gonna cuff me? Wyatt.
Oh, here we go again.
Do you mind getting my suitcase? Thank you.
You're here.
Hi.
The Governor has decided not to file any charges.
Ah.
Told you.
And he would like to thank you for your help in setting up this successful sting operation with the cooperation of the RPD, of course.
Of course.
I set up a successful sting operation with the cooperation of the RPD.
So could we take these off now? You can take them off.
The Governor also wants you to work with the RPD on tightening up their vault security.
- Oh, really? - Immediately.
That's all.
So, Fallujah, '03.
That was you, too.
The air is so dry there.
Everything chafes.
Tell me about it.
I just got a call from D.
C.
ordering me to cut you loose.
Ah.
Apparently, this was all an op of some kind, way above my pay grade, and for once, I'd prefer to keep it that way.
Oh.
You have changed.
Don't worry.
Your time will come, too.
Maybe it already has.
Not with her around.
She keeps you on your toes.
Look at you.
You're a hero all over again.
You're not doing too bad yourself.
And you get to walk out of here a free woman.
But I didn't get what I came for.
- You still got your pension.
- Ha! As hard as I've worked for Uncle Sam, you'd think they owe me something more.
So, where to now? Where every retired CIA agent goes.
Cable news.
Hm.
I wouldn't let that one get away.
Which one? Either.
Both.
I think you know.
See you down the road, Betty.
What? You're beautiful.
- You're drunk.
- I'm happy.
Ah, maybe a little drunk.
Hey, um let's stop hiding.
Let's tell the world that we're together.
You think so? What's stopping us? Your past.
My future.
You're saying no? I'm saying why now? We're doing pretty well with our own little secret.
Are you saying you're ashamed to be with me? - Is this a lost cause? - Yeah.
No.
Of course not.
That's silly.
Then why not now? The Governor won't like it, the FBI will put you on the hot seat.
Then we'll move.
You'll run for office somewhere, and I'll put in for a transfer.
The FBI have offices everywhere.
Hmm.
Now I know you're not serious.
I can't just move.
And you don't want to leave.
You love the Reef.
Try me.
Picture this.
Close your eyes.
Go on.
Close your eyes.
We're out having dinner at a restaurant, just like regular people.
Taking a walk on the beach.
Dodging raindrops.
Going for coffee.
I mean don't you want that? No second thoughts, nothing or no one holding you back? You're sure you're ready? Absolutely.
Can I think about it? So long as you say yes.
Jake! Be serious.
This is what I want.
So do.
Think about it.
Just don't take too long.
Ha! Hey.
You know something? I'm really glad you came back.
Thanks.
You really don't think I'm ready for that tournament? No, I really don't think you're ready for that tournament.
Look.
If you want to be the best, you got to put in the work.
You've got to focus.
You can't be getting distracted by dealing drugs and getting into trouble, you know? To be the best, you have to put in the work.
Nothing's changed.
I'm still gonna keep the drugs here, and I'm going to sell them.
No, you're not.
See, I, um I flushed them all down the toilet.
I should've left you in that vault! Ha! Oh my goodness.
- Hi.
- Hey.
You should, uh you should really lock your patio doors.
You should, uh, really not just enter people's houses without permission.
Isn't that called "unlawful entry"? Oh, you should call the cops.
What are you doing here? I'm here because we need to have that adult conversation.
- Do we? - Mm-hmm.
Do we really need to have - an adult conversation? - Oh, yeah.
See, I-I don't think we need to have an adult conversation.
We need to do this.
Mm.
Mm.
- Mm, Cat.
- Mm-hmm? Cat, wait.
Cat, wait.
Wait, wait.
Wait, wait.
Oh! You're no fun.
I'm not looking for fun.
I'm here 'cause I want to be with you.
Really? We're from totally different worlds, Wyatt.
It would never work in the long term.
I've been there.
Trust me when I say I know.
Okay.
How about this? I'm not going anywhere.
It's gonna take some time for you to come around to that, but I'll wait.
I'm not Jake.
I'm not that kind of cop, and I'm not that kind of man.
Really? Oh, yeah.
"Just between us girls.
