Charlie: Previously on Graceland...

So what now, boss?

Now, the truth has come out about me and Layla, Martun is not so happy with me.

Colby's dead, guys.

We b*rned the fingers on the wrong hand.

Colby was my fault, so what's the plan?

Ari has been supplanted by Toros Berbarian.

I want to work you under with him so that when Tevan Adamian dies...

We've got somebody on the inside.

I'm gonna need a hand on this pillbilly deal.

At some point, I got to introduce my West Coast money guy.

You know, anytime you need help, I got you.

I'm done with painkillers, Charlie.

Found it.

This about your crazy birds and numbers?

None of it's crazy.

I've been tracking an exchange on DarkMarquet.

An undisclosed parcel pickup here in Los Angeles...

Who the hell is that?

What, that's not your guy?

I mean, it's a guy, but that's a kid.

Mike: Gusti Kadek Pendit.

He's a repeat offender.

Briggs: Trespassing, petty theft, receipt of stolen property, vandalism...

I'm getting in the trunk.

This thing is bigger than I could have ever imagined.

It's a Soviet CW unit.

Your kid is rolling around with a WMD?

What the hell is he doing with that?

I think the better question is who the hell is he supposed to deliver this to?

Jesus, Mike, "Following direct exposure to sarin gas, victims suffer tightness of breath, nausea, drooling"...

Yes, I read the report.

"Soon, the victim loses control of the basic bodily functions.

There's vomiting, defecation, urination."

Briggs...

Finally, the victim experiences convulsive spasms.

Convulsive spasms and suffocation, and death occurs within ten minutes.

[sighs]

I know the symptoms.

It's a big deal.

Gusti is not a t*rror1st.

He moved here to become a stunt man, not to release chemical gas.

Uh-huh.

My guess: he's a middleman at best.

He's holding it.

Gonna deliver it to someone.

Well, then, that someone is our t*rror1st.

We have to notify the Bureau, the Department of Homeland Security.

No. No!

[tense music]

♪ ♪

DHS will just black-bag this thing.

Yes, the sarin will be off the street, but if Gusti doesn't talk, we never find out who the man behind the curtain is.

We cannot leave the gas in play and handle this by ourselves.

There's no way.

This case is real now because of what I saw.

We have to see it through.

I was meant to do this, Paul.

All right.

[footsteps descending stairs]

What the hell is this?

It smells like Hector's Tacos.

Oh, yeah. That's his daughter.

Paige: I'm pretty sure she's wearing Johnny's shirt.

She better not have gone upstairs.

I'm telling you.

I don't think either of them made it upstairs.

Yo.

Wow.

Oh.

Are you serious?

Get out, man. Come on. Get out.

Johnny, you better get this couch steam cleaned, you disgrace.

I didn't do nothing, Chuck. Get out of here. Come on.

Do you realize that Ms. Tacos is kind of just, like, roaming around the kitchen free?

Good for her.

Johnny, get her out of the house.

Get her out of the house.

No!

Weren't y'all the ones talking about, "Oh, oh, go off and get yourself laid"?

You said that, didn't you?

Yes, not by Lucia's twin!

And just, not on the couch, Johnny.

Okay. I can get rid of her.

But, uh, think aout what you're asking me.

You want me to get rid of Hector's Tacos, best Mexican food this side of Pico?

Is that really what you want?

Lordy! Lordy!

Hey, whoever's cooking is making a sweet, sweet siren song.

And it's Jenny. Hey.

Hey.

Just trying out a new recipe, making huevos rancheros with chorizo and home fries with fresh pico de gallo.

And for you, chilaquiles.

Thanks, baby.

Johnny, what are you up to later?

I was thinking about relaxing.

Do you want to help me out with something?

Yeah, this might take precedence over relaxing, Johnny.

Mike, you have to go to Miami with me today.

It's all lined up.

That's today?

Yeah.

I can't today.

You have to today.

I told them I was bringing my West Coast guy.

I can do it. Can they handle a black man?

Yeah. You sure you're available?

Oh, yeah.

So what exactly do you guys do?

If you had to guess, what would you say?

Do what?

p*rn?

No.

Wow.

Why?

Jakes: Maybe some of us.

You're attractive, you do business in Miami, and he wants to know if they can handle a black man.

She makes a good point, guys.

Uh, we're not... we're not p*rn.

I mean, it's fine if you are.

Uncle Tev asked you to be my babysitter?

No, he asked me to be your supervisor.

How about that, sweetheart?

Really? Okay.

It was about the conservation of energy, right?

That when you die, your energy has to go somewhere, so it, um... it measurably dissipates.

It really just was a shakedown.

So what, we just... we just walk away now?

That's it?

Hey.

Hmm?

What'd you miss?

It's a phone call, man, very important.

A phone call from who?

I promised the guy I don't tell anyone.

All right. All right.

Hey, but you're a good man, okay?

Okay, you're someone I can trust.

You're like a partner.

Yeah, I'll tell you. I'll tell you.

Yes. Yes.

Ari: Toros spent big time.

He even got one of those Japanese toilets... sings you a song while it cleans your butthole.

I bet he does.

You know, this should be yours, not his, Ari.

I can use a garden hose.

That's not what I'm saying, brother.

This is what I'm saying: you keep letting Toros take your territory, it is never gonna stop.

He's not reasonable. He has no respect, man.

Before you know it, it'll be a blitzkrieg, and you'll have nothing left.

Come on.

Let's get this over with.

Clear-Line Shipping earned me good money.

I can give you local 1010.

I can guarantee you a minimum of 100K...

[off-key piano chord]

I do believe that we're all aware that skimming union dues is an anemic endeavor.

The Sarkissians make their money in trafficking, yes?

What?

He's not wrong.

If you want Clear-Line, you got to make a good offer.

Margarian: "None for you."

"You drink too much and black out.

People end up dying."

What? What happened, boss? Did you insult you again?

Are you some kind of a prince?

Do you come from some kind of royalty that I should know about?

I'm sorry, what?

Every chance you get, you overstep me, and I'm wondering if you got some kind of a birthright that I should know about.

Well, Ari's my boss.

I am your boss.

I am Ari's boss.

What part of that can't you get in your head?

[speaking Armenian]

"He didn't mean anything."

[Toros speaking Armenian]

No!

He just said he's going to k*ll him.

Who?

Toros.

He's gonna k*ll our agent. We should call TAC.

No. We can't just barge in there.

We can't just sit here.

[both speaking Armenian]

Yeah, we're gonna see about that.

Is there something going here that...

Shut up, all right?

[knock at door]

Great... unexpected company.

Is this the 1010 local union rep or what?

What are you, a comedian?

Hey.

Hi.

What are you doing here?

You said you wanted to talk times and schedules, so I figured what better time than now?

Paige: I mean, I probably should have called, but, uh, you showed up to my office unannounced, so I thought I'd return the favor.

Oh.

You're all here.

Yes, we're all here.

Honey, it's kind of a bad time.

Yeah.

I think I'll go.

Ari: No, no, no, no.

We're gonna go.

We came here to talk business.

We're gonna leave because of a hookup?

I have a bottle of Arak at Ali Baba's.

We'll pick this up later.

You caused a little bit of a mess for me.

Yeah, I'm... I'm really sorry. I...

It's all right.

I didn't know.

I'm... we can do this another time.

No, no, no, no, come here. It's okay. You're here now.

Want to stay?

We'll make a night of it.

It drives me crazy. There's something about you.

Rougher than you can handle.

Hey, it's Briggs. Leave a message.

Briggs, it's me.

I figured out what's going on.

Two weeks ago, Gusti makes a deal online... the deal that I found.

He sends a photo of himself to a PO box.

In exchange, he gets a prepaid cell phone, no return address.

Couple days later, the shipping container shows up at the port.

He goes to the port, puts a cargo box from the container into his trunk.

He doesn't know what's in it.

He just knows there's 50K payable upon delivery, so he waits for the phone to ring.

And today, when we were in lockup, it rang.

Madison: Mike, are you okay?

Just a minute.

Mike.

Just a sec.

Listen, whoever's after this sarin gas is not giving up after one missed call, and the next time that phone rings...

I'm staying here tonight. Call me.

Paige, what happened?

You pushed Toros too far.

The translator said he was gonna k*ll you.

He did get a little handsy, and, uh, he likes it rough, but I played rough.

Blood everywhere.

Jesus, Paige.

Mm-hmm.

I mean, I apologized. He apologized.

But nothing kills the mood more than a trip to the ER.

Mm, I wish I could.

Charlie: House meeting!

Let's go!

Yo!

House meeting!

Whoa, whoa, what's going on?

We just got back from Florida with a haul of oxy.

My inventory log was crowded, so I decided to do inventory... 20 missing.

20 pills?

Yeah.

How?

No, the question is who?

Yay, house meeting.

Charlie's missing oxy, man.

Someone in the house.

Well, if oxy's missing, I think we all know who took it.

Madison: You really saved us back there, didn't you?

Gusti and me?

I really needed that pill, Mike.

I don't know how you knew, but thanks.

Don't mention it.

Let's just say I know the feeling.

You want some more?

[sighs] Do I want some more?

What are you doing?

Swallowing's fine, but, um, smoking...

Yeah.

No, thanks.

Want some?

No.
