Go get your a*s inside.

Ask the guys that are
dusting for pubes

lying around?

I can't just go there, Joe.
Talford knows I'm helping you.

She's just
lady-copping the sh*t out of me

right now with head games.

- Shouldn't have told her
you knew me.

- Hey, you don't know
this woman.

She was just waiting
for me to lie to her.

- Dad, maybe Sergeant Talford
might help us.

- No.
She wants to use you as bait.

That's what the f*ck
she wants to do.

- No, no, no, she found
two dead bodies in our house

and she only questioned us
for, like, what, 15 minutes?

- I don't know, Joe.
Jenn might be onto something.

I mean, I watch "First 48,"
and normally

when they bring people
into the investigation room,

they're there for, like,
five, six straight hours.

- Mm-hmm.
Something's up with her.

I think she might
want to help us.

- She is not.

Now how long is
this whole "CSI" bullshit

gonna be happening
at the house?

- Not long.

Our guys are terrible at it.

But the Shaveys are gonna be
posted up there indefinitely.

Talford knows the Russians
are watching your house.

It's just a matter of time
before she knows why.

- Then maybe we beat her
to the punch.

Tell her the truth.
Dad, half the truth.

There aresome guys
trying to k*ll us.

- Not to mention
that crazy hit-b*tch.

- And that crazy hit-b*tch.

If I ask
Sergeant Talford for help,

maybe she'll let us

and then we'll
have the Shaveys protect us...

so we'll have
police protection outside

while we look for the money
inside.

No.
