05x03 - Firecracker

[bunniefuu]

Male announcer: Previously, on Republic of Doyle.

It's all Jake's fault.

This crap flows from the top.

You're developing a bit of an attitude.

Think long and hard about your future.

Maybe the badge doesn't fit.

We're all lucky to have you around.

Thank you?

I know you have a history with Big Charlie.

I want this for you.

Jake Doyle, huh?

Nice to meet ya.

♪[Percussion music]

Jake: Hey.

Stundarse. You're losing her.

Des: I'm sorry. I'm going as fast as I can.

You should just give up.

[Horn honks.]

I can't! Jake'll k*ll me.

Jake: Less talkie talkie.

More runnie runnie.

Des: I'll get her! I'll get her.

Just stop me.

Des, are you crying?

You hear that, Dad?

Des is crying. Do you hear that?

No! Mal. My tear ducts get sensitive when I run fast. Okay?

You knows that.

Yes. Here with the client. Just FYI.

Yeah, Des. You hear that? We're here with the client.

Stop embarrassing the team.
And--

You know, do better.

Bite me. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. That's not me.

Are they always like this?

Oh no.

This is pretty good for them.

Not exactly filling me with confidence.

Oh, they're very good at what they do.

We'll get your employer's items back. Not to worry.

You really think this kid is thief responsible for all those break-ins?

Well, she was loitering in the neighbourhood, when she started running.

And she matches the description of the girl who hit the last two houses.

She's our girl.

I hope you're right.

Otherwise we'll both be unemployed.

[Horn honks.]

Oh my God! I'm gonna die.

Jake: Dad. Des is testing our health insurance Meaning: I'm going to kilo k*ll.

What?

She's gone.

Jake? Jake she smoked bombed.

She smoke bombed, Jake. She may have powers.

Repeat: She may have powers.

Des. Shut up.

Des. She doubled back to where I am right now.

I got here. Just watch and -- learn.

[Bang]

[expl*si*n]

Dad. Call an ambulance.

An expl*si*n went off inside the house.

The girl is unconscious, but she's gonna be okay.

[Car tires squeal.]

Sorry.

Did you just steal my handcuffs?

Fraid so. And these.

Hope it's a standard transmission.

Come on. I just saved your life!

You're gonna leave me handcuffed outside a burning house?

Have some faith in your regional fire department. But thank you.

You're a good man.

That is a lot of car for a little girl. So you--

[Tires squeal]

[Sound of sirens.]

Dad! Help.

Grayson: Nice job, man.

I mean, Jake.

Really though. Saving a young girl from an expl*si*n.

Pretty bad ass.

I'm not surprised.

Yeah. Did you find my car yet?

Are we looking for your car?

I mean, if not. I'm your guy. I'm on it.

You're dating my niece, right?

Let me tell me something.

You mess this up with her. Cop or no cop.

I'm coming for you.

Constable? Could you give us a minute?

Gladly, Yeah.

Thank you for that. So, you look great, by the way.

What do you want to do?

You wanna go do some, you know, stuff?

We need to talk.

Now.

So, that could have gone better.

You know? Maybe with some sort of apprehending and recovery of the stolen items, I mean.

We'll get them back.

The expl*si*n slowed us up a little.

Yeah, and the running.

You know, I just don't have the cardio for it.

My legs won't really--

Yeah. I get that. But my boss won't.

And he cuts the cheques.

So full payment is contingent on recovery of the stolen items.

[Beep]

And he just touched down. He was away on business.

He's not gonna be happy.

What is it he does again?

Clark Cooper?

He's the Senior VP of Operations for the Bank of Newfoundland.

And he's not one for bad news.

Yeah. And if you could just send us the list of the stolen items-

Yeah. I'll email it to you.

I'll try to talk to him to explain things.

But I know from experience.

You have about an hour.

Or he'll fire you.

Jake: Are you mad at me?

Leslie: I'm not mad.

Jake: Just so you know --

I saved a little girl from an expl*si*n today.

And you know what?

Leslie, I'm having a hard old day, b'y.

Jake, I'm not sure how to tell you this.

Are you breaking up with me?

You're breaking up with me.

I know. It was just a matter of time.

You're obviously way too good for me.

Leslie: No. Jake.

I'm late.

What do you mean, you're late?

You mean, you're late?

Yes. As in--
I'm late.

Are we having a baby?

Shhh. Look. I don't know. Okay.

I haven't taken a test or anything.

But I'm never, you know... late.

Are you sure? I mean--

You know, some women, when they have trouble down below-- it's not necessarily pregnancy related.

[Phone rings.]

Bennett.

I'm on my way. I just gotta make a quick stop first.

That was forensics on the expl*si*n.

It was set, for sure.

They're working to find out what primer was used.

I don't care. Can you tell me when you know something?

When are you gonna know? Are you gonna know?

Are you gonna tell me about it?

Trust me.

You'll be the first.

I gotta go.

So what? Am I gonna have a little girl? Or-- maybe a---

Son?

What did you just say?

Mal: Did that expl*si*n loosen something?

Are you okay?

Jake: I'm fine. Alright? Just What did you find out?

Mal: We've got about an hour to catch that girl and get our client his boss's belonging back, or we're fired.

Jake.

You almost exploded to death. Okay?

This is your father.

He was worried about you.

Maybe, when you have a family of your own some day, you'll understand.

What's that supposed to mean?

What? Nothing. What?

Something?

Nothing. Okay.

So I identified that little girl who b*at you up and stole your car, as Sloane Daniels.

She's been in and out of juvie for stealing a Metrobus, vandalizing a Marie's, and she assaulted a bouncer at Liquid Ice.

Reminds me of you.

Ha ha.

It says here that she lives in a group home.

Mal: Which one?

Des. Which one? Pay attention, will ya?

Will you give the little fella a second to check?

What is your problem?

Patience. Ever hear of it?

Deadly song.

So, it says here she lives at Naomi Centre.

So I'll text you guys the info.

And...

I might, um I might just hang back.

And fill Rose in on the details, if that's okay.

I don't care. Just run through the surveillance van video, okay?

Someone had to start that fire.

Maybe we got luck and caught someone.

Yeah. Okay.

See? You're breaking his confidence because you have a zero tolerance policy.

And that's why nobody likes you.

Wow. This place is a mess.

Are all kids this dirty, or what?

The big ones, like you, are the worst.

Jake: This mattress.

Someone's been ripping this to pieces.

Dad. There's a young fella on the porch.

I don't suppose you wanna go after him.

Mal: A perk of fatherhood.

You go burn off some of that hostility.

Jake: Stop running. I am not in the mood!

Philip: Leave me alone!

Don't move.

Stay still.

[Click]

Now.

Who are you and what do you want?

Why do they always have to run?

♪

[Tires screeching.]

[Phone rings]

Rose.

Leslie just called here looking for you.

She said you're not picking up your cell.

Did she say anything? Did she want anything?

What?

Nothing.

Look. I took a picture of some douche bag, who was breaking into Sloane's room.

I'm gonna send it to you. Can you look into him?

And get Des to look into the surveillance video.

And see if he can find any Bugden's Cabs, okay?

One just almost ran me over.

And I saw it, like, twice today.

It could be something. It could be nothing.

Speaking of Des.

Have you noticed that he's been acting strange?

Even for Des?

Why would I ever notice anything like that?

If you want I'll, you know keep an eye on him. Or-- whatever.

I'll call you later.

Yeah, sure.

Hey. Des, honey.

Jake wants you to look at some surveillance footage about a Bugden's cab.

Are you thinking about the parallel?

You mean the multiverse universes parallel?

No. Of course you don't mean that.

You were talking about my time in the group home.

It's okay, honey.

You two share a similar past.

I mean, you both spent a lot of time in that system.

You know this girl.

I am that girl!

I was that girl, a guy. I'm a man.

Look.

When you grow up in that environment.

And don't get me wrong--

Because there are lots of amazing people who work in those group homes.

And they really try and help.

And thank God that they exist.

But--

But it' not exactly ideal.

No. It's not.

And--

And sometimes you make decisions.

And choices that you wouldn't necessarily make if you had someone looking out for you.

And Sloane?

She needs, like a Doyle family.

You and I can both relate to her.

And I think that we can help her.

You're a good fella.

Cooper: Hello?

Is this Doyle and Doyle Investigating?

And Courtney. Yes. Yes. And you are?

Clark Cooper.

Your services were acquired by William Bastion?

I'm sorry, but as you can imagine, we can't reveal anything about any of our clients.

Cooper: I'm Bastion's boss.

I'm the one footing the bill.

Well, this seems to be all in order.

And a signature. That's always good.

Cooper: Bastion said he hired you to track down my missing belongings.

Until we identify that you're exactly who you say you are, we can't discuss this case with you.

You're fired.

That cheque should total the complete amount of what our contract entails.

Mister Cooper. Is there a reason why you want to terminate our contract?

Nothing serious was stolen.

I'm certain you have more pressing issues to deal with.

Why don't I have Bastion call you to wrap things up?

Good day.

Did he just take that photo that Jake took?

Yeah. Yeah. He did.

And there's a whole lot wrong with that guy.

Listen, I'm gonna call Bastion. You go follow him.

Oh, I'm on it.

Oh. Ah... Inspector.

What's going on with the Jake Doyle expl*si*n?

Cole's notes?

The techies haven't leaned a lot.

But we now know the expl*sive devise was prepped just minutes before Sloane got there.

So the culprit left the scene just before we arrived.

Anything else?

One of the components used was starting fluid.

It's a bit of an odd choice.

You know what I'm going to say?

No. I don't. What?

Before I hired you--

Gave you this promotion, some people warned me about your connection to Jake.

And how your personal life might cross over into your professional.

You're an excellent cop.

I'm just telling you to be careful.

But I want you to know that I trust your judgement.

And I won't be meddling in your personal life.

Just watch yourself.

Point taken.

Good.

Oh. Ahh...

Topic change. Um...

I hope this isn't an odd request, but--

I'm hosting a dinner this weekend for the senior staff, and some of my up and coming stars like yourself.

That's really nice of you to ask.

I always feel a bit uncomfortable around the Brass.

Like it or not, Bennett, some day you'll be the Brass.

Jake: Where'd you get all that?

Did you find it under the floorboards there?

How'd you figure that out?

Raising three youngsters will teach you a thing or two about hiding places.

I guess you're right.

Hey.

I know some of these things are shiny, but-- try and stay with me here.

Just leave me alone, will ya?

So what do you think?

Most of this stuff from the houses she robbed?

None of it looks very valuable.

Mal: That list that Bastion emailed us.

Mostly items of sentimental items on it.

Where did this one come from?

That was hidden with the others.

Jake: This girl.

She looks really familiar.

Whatever that guy was looking for --

How much you wanna be it's in this pile?

[Phone rings.]

Yeah.

Okay. I have to whisper.
'Cause I'm on a stakeout.

And it's awesome.

Des, being annoying is a choice. So what do you want?

Be nice, will ya?

Des: As per usual,

I've been monitoring your credit card activity.

I actually have a an alert on my phone.

Really, now shut up and hurry up.

There was a charge at a Poutine Restaurant near Patrick Street about five minutes ago. I think it's Sloane.

So not only did this girl steal my car, she's also using my credit card.

I'm gonna--

Don't be too hard on her. Okay? She needs our support.

I gotta go.

Des--

Des hung up on you?

And he is as loyal as the day is long. Or was, anyway.

Take that as a sign son.

First of all, he was on a stakeout. Second of all --

You're really getting on my nerves today. So knock it off.

Yes b'y.

[Click]

Philip: You Cooper? You call for a cab?

You don't remember me.

Ha, ha, ha. How about now?

Look man! Alright. I'm not afraid of you.

Good boy. Because we're taking a drive, you and I.

We're gonna meet your partner.
And have a little chat about what you two did.

Now get in there.

He means Sloane?

[Click]

Seriously, where's your head today?

What's going on? Tell me.

Wow. Leslie broke up with you, right?

Well, we both knew this day would come.

It's not that. It's something else.

Jake: There's my car.

I got this.

Sloane: He did well for himself.

Jake: Hey!

You little sh*t. Remember me?

[Locked door sound.]

See I knew you'd get out of those cuffs alright.

Out of my car. Now.

She's got some serious guts. Really, really tight.

But I gotta say--

Your brake pads are shagged though.

[Squealing tires.]

See if you had kids, you'd have known that was coming.

Breaks work fine to me.

Okay. You got me.

Jake: Unlock the door.

Get out.

Man, you're some stubborn.

Don't slam my door.

Did you steal anything?

No! I will not have sex with you for twenty bucks!

No no now... Don't be at that.

Pervert!

No! Now that's not what, no.

Just get--Look.

She stole my car.

It's not what it looks like.

Okay? She stole my wallet and my car.

That's my car. What do you think? She owns that car?

Get out of my face. The lot of ye.

See? Just--
Mind your own...

I know you had this. Ha ha.

I can't believe you got you dad to stop me from bullying you.

Mal: She has a point, son.

What did you do to my trunk?

Nothing.

No by, knows you didn't.

Oh my God...

Leslie: His name is Clark Cooper.

He's a senior VP of operations of the Bank of Newfoundland.

He's our client. Bastion's Boss.

He hired us to recover some of his belongings that were stolen.

I'm going to check with Rose. See if she knows what happened to him.

The items. Were they stolen by Sloane?

I don't know. It looks like it.

Sloane: I know my rights, I've been read them many a time...

Police brutality.

This is obviously a total frame job.

Do I have to you know run out and buy some little people clothing?

Are we having a baby or what?

It's not a great time to ask.

But I'm pretty sure

I'm not ready to be responsible for a kid.

Especially-- one that turns out like that.

Jake: Well they don't start that way.

I mean, you got to raise them first.

And besides Sloane is a good person, okay?

She may be a thief but she's not a m*rder*r. I know that.

It doesn't look good.

She's a lead suspect in the arson.

And now one of her robbery victims was found dead in the back of your car, that she was driving.

Yes b'y Leslie. She stole my car, k*lled Cooper, stuck him in the trunk.

And then she stopped for a bit of Poutine.

Why would she do that?

I don't know, she's a kid.

I haven't taken the pregnancy test.

Yet.

Is that, like, a comment on the would be father or...

I just haven't had a chance.

I'll take it when I get back to the station.

[Sound of GTO engine trying to turn over]

Sorry!

You're going to need to get this looked at, Doyle.

The clutch is a little arsed up.

Why is he --? Why is he in my car? Why is he in my car?

I gotta take it in.

It's a crime scene.

Here.

Take the bus.

Just got off the phone with Rose.

Cooper paid us.

And then fired us just before he d*ed.

What?

That's got to be some kind of record, I mean even for us.

Yeah? We're officially off the case.

No, no Dad. Look. We gotta stay on the case.

We've got to prove Sloane's innocence.

If we don't, it's going to ruin her whole life.

[Sound of GTO trying to start.]

Almost got it!

♪

Nothing in here worth k*lling over.

Yet a man is dead and a girl's room torn up.

Someone is looking for something.

Des: Yeah, but what?

Jake: This woman she looks familiar.

Frame seems a little different then the rest.

That's Sloane's mom. I checked with the group home.

Ellen Daniels, but I don't think that's part of the stolen stuff.

Ellen Daniels?

I went to high school wit her.
Do you remember?

I use to hang out with her all the time.

I can't believe that her daughter ended up in this kind of mess.

You heard from Bastion?

I've been trying to call him. But he hasn't been picking up.

And now is boss is dead. Bummer.

Bastion: Clark's... Dead?

Rose: Mr. Bastion.

I'm so sorry.

That, that girl Sloane.

She stole from him.

But I didn't think she'd k*ll him.

Sloane didn't k*ll anyone.

Mal: Did Cooper have any enemies?

No. I know everything about him.

He, he wasn't the easiest guy to work for, but he was a banker.

I mean everybody kind of hated him.

But not like that, you know?

Not, not enemies.

We know for sure that Cooper was b*ating the crap out of this cab driver.

Don't you think that could possibly make an enemy out of someone?

Rose: I called the group home. He use to live there as a minor.

His name is Philip Sinnot.

Does it ring any bells?

No. I, I don't know, I've never heard of him.

This is so sad.

Cooper's house gets rob when he's on vacation and now this?

We did manage to recover his stolen items.

Is there anything in here worth k*lling for?

Bastion: No... I think they're just sentimental junk.

I'll see it gets to the proper hands.

Thank you.

Cooper was robbed when he was out of town, yeah?

Yeah.

So were the owners of all the other houses, Sloane robbed.

Who else would know?

If you were leaving town?

Whoever take you to the airport.

Your Mom!

No Des. Cab Driver.

Let's go see Leslie. See what Sloane has to say.

Think I have an idea of how to get closer to this cab driver.

Let me guess.

You're taking a little trip?

Yes Hi, I'd like to order a pick up for about twenty minutes from now.

And I have a specific cab driver in mind.

Philip: Hi.

Hi.

Airport?

Yeah.

Heading anywhere nice?

Just out of town for the night, to see a friend.

Be back tomorrow morning.

So your husband got the place to himself tonight?

Um...

Actually...my, um, my husband passed away a few years ago...

I'm sorry for your loss. I, I didn't mean it...

It's just with, ah... such a big house.

It's just me in there with a bunch of, drab antiques and art.

See that?

See the patience?

People respond to that.

Want some paper, take a few notes?

You take notes!

What?

That's your comeback?

Okay, okay.

What is up with you?

Kids.

Kid, the little she, the kid.

What are you guys doing here?

It's a long story.

It always seems that way with you okay, huh?

Jake.

Inspector.

Leslie: Are you going to say anything?

Cause if not, you are looking at a long time.

You and Jake.

You two...

Are a couple right?

Excuse me?

I found a photo of you in his wallet.

That's so sweet.

He's a decent fella. He saved my life.

Did you know your mother?

Your father?

Here we go. Psyche 101.

You know, you act pretty tough for a girl who's up for m*rder.

Fine, lets proceed.

I knew my mom, a bit. Not my dad.

They're both dead now and...

Here's some advice.

Mr. Jake doesn't seem like your type.

Why's that?

I don't know.

He's dangerous.

Which I can totally tell you're into.

But... he's also decent.

Like really, really good.

And you seem like you fall for the not so decent guys.

Well, you know, if you don't tell me what happened--

How you ended up with a stolen car, and a body in the back...

I had nothing to do with the dead guy.

You're going to end up in a place where the only boys you see for a long time are the guards on duty, you got me?

How's it going in there?

She's a tough nut. Does she have a guardian?

Not really.

We seem to be it.

Do you mind if I go in and take a sh*t?

Your call Bennett.

Don't mess this up.

You are seriously messing up my day.

I'm messing up your day?

I know you didn't k*ll anyone.

But I need your help to prove it.

Now you gonna throw me a bone here. or what?

No one asked for you help.

Lets start with the robberies.

So what? You wait for people to go on vacation before you rip them off?

That way they won't walk in on ya while you're pulling a job.

I mean that's, that's pretty smart.

I'm clever. What can I say?

So you do it all by yourself do you?

Yeah.

Really.

Who's this guy?

I don't know.

I think you do.

His name his Philip.

And I caught him trashing your place looking for all that crap that you stole.

Now Philip here--
He will throw you under the bus to save his own skin.

A man is dead, for something that people think that you have.

I'll protect you.

I just need you help.

I didn't even want to steal stuff.

Philip is my ex-boyfriend. He forced me to do it.

He said we'd get away.

If there's some special item, he probably has it.

Oh.

So I've been looking into Cooper's financials.

He hasn't been paid for weeks and then got a lump sum from the bank.

Sounds like severance pay.

Why'd he get fired?

Fraud. I talked to Walter, he owed me a favour.

And apparently the bank has been investigating Cooper for stealing two million pounds by skimming cash deposits.

Wow, that's what everybody's after.

Two million pounds is like, over three million Canadian.

That's enough to k*ll for.

Yeah I'm, I'm gonna text Mal and Jake and update them.

Do you think that Sloane found the money?

I don't know. But--

Don't you think it's weird that Bastion didn't mention this?

Maybe we should take a closer look at him.

I'm on it. Oh. And it turns out, that Walter didn't owe me a favour.

So he's coming to dinner all next week.

Well, you're cooking.

Yes, I will cook.

You must be one of them bad santas.

Ooof!

Oh...

Get up.

Have a seat.

Now, you're gonna answer--

[Slap]

Look at me.

You're gonna answer a few questions, or I'm gonna skin you alive.

And I'm going to feed you to a kennel of starvin' dogs.

I don't know what you're talking about, alright?

A kennel of starving dogs?

He's a little off today.

What I mean is: I wanna know: Did you set the fire, that nearly k*lled me, with this starter fluid from your car?

Oh, like, not anyone else has that?

Mal: That's true. But--

Not many people have a record for setting four fires with it.

Wait, those files they're suppose to be sealed alright.

I was in Juvie.

Oh yeah they're sealed with cops and courts.

But do I look do I look like a cop?

Does this look like a court?

Open your mouth.

Open your mouth!

Lets see if this will set fire inside of his gut.

Okay, okay. Look, I-- so I lit the starting fluid

I didn't know it was going to go up like that.

I was just trying to scare Sloane.

I found out Sloane was skimming from me.

That's what I was looking for at the group home.

My share of the money.

Plus, she broke up with me.

Mal: Your share of the two million pounds?

Pounds of what?

Jake: Pounds. Sterling.

It's British currency.

No look, it was only two thousand dollars.

Mal: What about Cooper?

We know he put two and two together.

And figured you robbed his house while he was away on vacation.

He confronted you.

And then he forced you to drive him to Sloane.

[Slap]

So you k*lled him?

What? No. That's not what happened alright.

Look, I did drive him. But not to Sloane.

He wanted to see some preppy looking guy at the bank.

And then the two of them got in a fight and--

I took off and I've been working non stop until then.

Check with my dispatcher.

Mal: We did.

You booked five fares. You had plenty of time.

You said that Cooper got in a fight with some preppy guy.

Is it him?

Yeah that's him!

Look I'm sorry alright.

This wasn't suppose to happen.

I was just doing whatever Sloane was telling me to do.

I loved her.

I'm an idiot.

If Sloane is the one behind all this, I'm the idiot.

Yes you are.

Yo, you're welcome.

Who's this?

Consider it a welcome back to work gift. Free collar.

Jake: He's the guy that set the fire that almost k*lled me.

Plus he's a witness in the Cooper m*rder.

Where's Leslie? I phoned this in for her.

She's in the interrogation room. I'll take him from here.

I want a lawyer.

Jake?

Tell me what's going on.

I'll-- tell ya, over a pint.

Or maybe a cigar?

You know just--ignore that. Just forget I even...

Am I interrupting?

I was just processing Sloane's paperwork when I caught her going through my desk.

Looking for a pen.

Well she's very sorry.

Aren't you Sloane?

Whatever.

You're free to go.

But I don't want to see you back here again.

[Door slams]

That girl is really, really testing my patience.

Speaking of testing--

Did you happen to take that little, you know test we were gonna take?

Okay. I just want you to know, that no matter what happens, if this happens, I'm more than, okay with all of it.

It's okay Jake. We're just gonna take it one step at a time.

And your car is free to go.

Okay.

We're working on a theory.

Your former client...

Bastion?

Yeah. A few of his co-workers said they saw him get into a fight with Cooper right before Cooper d*ed.

Right?

Yeah, yeah.

Maybe and Bastion stole the two million together.

And then Cooper cut Bastion out.

Bastion kills Cooper and now he's on the run with the two million pounds.

Maybe.

Thanks.

I'll see ya.

Mal: Tough day huh?

It's alright I've had worse.

You wanna talk about it?

No but-- Ummm. Can I have a hug?

Awww...

[Clinking sound]

Sloane: That works.

That was smooth.

You know, Bennett should really lock her desk.

Keys! Right now, missy!

Sloane, give me the keys!

Sloane! Watch out!

Officer! Somebody stop that man!

Jake?

Yeah...

It's Sloane.

Bastion grabbed her in the Sedan.

License plate 8ZP 230.

What direction were they headed in?

Away from the station. East.

On it.

[Screeching tires]

Son of a bitch!

Anything?

No.

That was the group home.

They haven't seen Sloane all day.

If he got all his items back, then why did he kidnap Sloane?

Bastion must not have the stolen money.

Whatever Sloane stole, it could lead him to the money.

What could it be?

I quadruple checked there list. We got everything back.

Jake: Not everything.

There was one thing on the list that Bastion didn't get.

Mal: The frame.

Maybe Sloane stole this from Cooper's house.

What's so valuable about it?

Bastion: Apt question.

[Sloan coughing]

Mal: Sloane.

Where is she?

She's fine.

She better be.

Whoa. You guys need to learn how to relax.

Seriously.

Why don't you put that g*n down and we'll talk about it.

You're hysterical.

So here's the deal. The girl's fine.

But she's gonna need you to get there soon, or she won't be.

Toss me the frame.

Des.

[Sloane coughing]

Thanks.

You know I really gotta commend you guys on your diligence.

You get fired from the job, yet you finish it.

I'll send you the address where to find her.

Keep an eye on your phone.

Des.

You follow that piece of crap.

[Message sound.]

Alright. I got the address.

Lets go.

Jake! Faster!

Hang on Dad by we'll get there, we'll get there.

If Leslie's pregnant, you should know:
You're a good man. You'd be a great Dad.

Are you after going soft in the head or something?

I say one nice thing!

I'm just saying you could have lost your mind.

It happens to people, especially your age.

Okay, you'd be a terrible dad. You happy now?

[Tires squealing]

Mal: This is the address.

Jake: She better be here.

[Sloane coughing]

I'll check the side door.

[Glass breaking]

[Coughing]

[Jake coughs]

You okay?

[Coughing]

Hang on, hang on.

[coughing]

[Clicking sound]

♪ [Music crescendos]

Just duck your head.

[Tires squealing]

[Crash]

Everyone okay?

Fine.

Yeah.

She'll live.

Thanks for the save.

Jake: Listen carefully, the guys that locked you in that garage...

Bastion. Did he tell you anything?

He was just asking about some stupid frame.

I told him you guys had it.

What did he want with it?

Unless he had some weird obsession with that photo of my Mom in it--

Nothing. I don't know.

Where'd you get that frame?

I may have borrowed it from that dead guy, Clark's house.

[Phone rings.]

It's Rose. Yeah?

I examined the photos Des took of the frame.

Jake: What'd you find?

Rose: A tiny hole built into it.

What for?

A lens.

There was a hidden camera in the picture frame?

Mal: So Bastion must have planted it in Cooper's house to record something, But what?

Hopefully not the old guy doing it.

Jake: Thanks Rose, I'll call you back.

Whatever it was, he was looking for something.

Ah!

You're good with computers, right?

Okay, hold on b'y, hold on.

Can you fix it?

Yes! Just, just, just give me a second.

Okay, okay. Yeah that should do it the memory was corrupt.

You know I'd love it if you weren't pointing that thing at me.

Consider it a warning.

Meaning, you better hope this works.

It does. Just look.

You know, I gotta say-- you should really stop abusing people.

It's going to come back to you.

Thanks for that. Really.

Okay, okay.

[Sound of car door]

Where did you get it exactly?

Right here.

And which way was it pointed?

Right there.

Maybe Cooper was seeing someone he shouldn't of been.

And Bastion wanted some evidence, to blackmail him.

Sloane: Good scam.

Yeah. I got a feeling...

This would be a little more profitable.

Bastion: You guys really don't know when to stop.

Bastion, put the g*n down.

Shut up!

Now I'm gonna take that money. And I'm getting out of here.

Buddy you k*lled your boss and you nearly k*lled her.

You think we're gonna just let you walk out of here?

We know you planted that camera in Cooper's house.

To rob him, before he cut you out of the deal.

Then Sloane stole the camera.

Sorry about that.

Cooper and I were together to pull the whole plan off.

And yeah, he tried to cut me out.

What else could I have done?

Not k*ll him?

Unlock the safe.

Code's on there.

Do you know how to work this?

[Beeping]

Not a bad pay-day.

And well deserved.

Fill it.

[Sound of zipper]

Dad.

Okay guys, come on.

Now there's enough money in there for all of us.

Why don't you just, just take your share and I walk?

What do you say?

Ah, sold.

I wasn't talking to you.

That's too bad.

Because we would have made a really good team.

I mean I'm older than I look, and a little wiser.

Kid, get the hell--

Oh!

Okay, that's, that's quite enough of that.

That had to hurt.

Look Pally. You really did have this coming. Get up.

Now what--

Where's Sloane?

Jake: She took the Money.

Stay with him.

You know, they need to put a bell on you, or something.

Wait! Please don't run again okay?

I'm still sore from the last time.

And then Jake is going to have to do all the running.

And I'm going to get fired.

Not my problem.

Hey, hey, hey.

I'm sorry. Look.

I know you had a rough go. But the Doyles wanna help you.

I don't need their help, Slim.

Where you headed?

Would you believe a sleepover?

No.

Give me the bag.

Bastion's plan wasn't that bad, if you want to take off and let me go.

Fine.

Really?

Just be prepared to always be looking over your shoulder.

'Cause the cops will never leave you alone.

I'm not afraid of the cops.

You're right.

The cops will be the least of your problems.

And with your attitude and bad habits and all that money, you're gonna attract the worst kind of people.

Look at me.

And you exactly what I'm talking about.

It's not like I have much of a choice Jake. Do I?

Lets make a deal.

If you stick around, I promise I'll always be here.

If you call me, I'll show up. Simple.

What do you think?

Think it's time you start trusting someone?

I got you something.

Take it.

My number's programmed inside.

Mine too.

I guess, we can try things your way.

Jake: I think you might also want this.

What's this?

Folic acid? Prenatal vitamins?

Yeah. I know your supposed to take them, like ten months before you actually get preggers, but...

You know I wanted to--
I wanted to get you something.

And I got no idea what I'm at here Leslie b'y.

That's really thoughtful of you. But I'm not pregnant.

Are you sure?

Is that okay?

You look sad.

Well, you know, forgive me for wanting to be forever linked through eternity through our offspring.

But ah, yeah maybe a little.

I figure the more babies I make ya have now the harder it'll be for you to leave me later on, which is inevitable.

Pure strategy on my part.

You're going to be an amazing Dad you know, it's just...

Not now.

Okay?

Go on now, I've got work to do.

It's the weekend. Do you wanna...? What do we...?

Shouldn't we have plans or...?

I just got this work dinner thing.

It's nothing you gotta worry about.

You're free.

Good. Great.

I'll talk to you after.

We would like two glasses of champagne, Ned.

What's the celebration?

You're looking at the newest Big Brother in St. John's.

Well congrats. What are your parents gonna name the kid?

No. I signed up with a group home.

That deserves champagne?

That's more like a club soda type celebration.

Just get the drinks Ned.

Thank you.

Don't mind him.

I'm so proud of you.

Thanks.

So what's this I hear about you hanging out with my uncle?

More like making an ass out of myself?

I don't know. I guess I was, just trying to impress him.

Tinny: What? Why?

Because he's important to you.

And you're important to me.

Well, that's pretty sweet. But completely unnecessary.

I don't care what Jake thinks of you.

Mal: You started already without us?

Oh, just getting warmed up hun.

We're gonna go get a table.

Grandchildren in my future?

No.

Likely for the best.

You're hilarious.
