Smuggler's plane came down

in the San Bernardino Mountains.

- What's in it? dr*gs?
- Money.

DERAN: Yeah, that ain't cash, J.

CRAIG: You know how hard it's gonna be

- Pete's gonna move it.

It's all worked out.

What else are you hiding from us, J?

He has a bowling alley.

And a laundromat, and a condo.

He bought it all with money
he stole from Smurf.

So... where to?

Oceanside.

I think I might have found us a fence.

It's through Frankie.

She wants % every transaction.

No, I'll tell him.

DERAN: Who the hell is Pamela Johnson?

She's one of Smurf's old pals.

Where's Pope?

So we need to figure out what
to do with Smurf's ashes.

Do we have any idea what set him off?

The DEA agent who busted
Adrian stopped by my bar.

And now we have all
this coke in the house.
