05x02 - The Overpass

Post by bunniefuu »

Announcer: Previously on Republic of Doyle.

[Bang. Bang.]

Jake? What?

You're alive!

Tell me this wasn't about a girl.

Sort of.

Kiss, kiss, kiss. Yes b'y.

Smallwood: You turned down the Federal

Task Force Job.

I promoted you to be my number one.

What's not to like here?

Mal: Charlie Archer. He's a biker from Montreal connected to some U.S. syndicates.

You're suspended.

Until further notice.

You disappear like that again, don't bother coming back.

I will never leave your side.

♪I just want to celebrate
♪Another day of living.

Jake: Stanley.

If we get out of this alive, I swear I'm gonna k*ll you myself.

Why did you knock me out?

I didn't knock you out.

But if those fellas catch up with us, they're gonna knock us both out for good.

You're a dead man, Doyle.

You gotta be kidding me.

It's music. It helps me think.

You touch that again, I'll cut your paws off.

Is that you or your father speaking?

If he ever said that to you, he was wrong to do so.

Game over, Jake.

This looks fatal.

Just saying.

Jake.

Jake!


Jake!!


♪Oh yeah
♪Oh yeah
♪Oh yeah

Stanley: This is gonna be awkward for you, but I think you have me confused with some one else.

Jake: Stanley Westcott.

Chief witness in the Big Charlie Archer trial.

Remember Big Charlie?

Sorry. I didn't catch your name.

My name?

Jake Doyle.

And don't waste your time trying to talk yourself out of this crap.

Wait. I've never heard of this large Charlie fella.

I mean, do I look like a biker to you?

You look like his accomplice that made a deal to testify against him.

And then took a run for it. Look, buddy.

I was hired to find you, which I did.

And take you back to St. John's, which I will.

So what can I say?

Stanley. It sucks to be you.

No, no, no.

I didn't defraud anyone.

Oh, you didn't? You mean you're innocent?

Get in.

Rose: Any word where Jake is?

Mal: None.


But he's a big boy.

I'm sure he can find his way here from Corner Brook.

Hey.

You need something, honey?

I'm bored out of my scull. As you know, I'm suspended.

I know. I know. You okay?

No.

It's such a load of crap. I can't even tell you. But --

I'm fine. Whatever.

I'll see you guys later.

Mal: She's taking more after her uncle than her grandfather.

That's never a good thing.

She just needs to learn to be a little more disciplined in her approach.

It's all Jake's fault.

[Phone rings.]

Play nice.

What do you want?

I got our guy.

I got Stanley Westcott.

What do you want? A cookie?

Just get him to town. No shagging around.

What is wrong with you? Aside from the obvious of you-- just being you.

The only way we can collect that ten thousand dollar fee is if you get him to St. John's.

I got our man. It's a done deal.

Okay? And nobody wants that money more than me.

Hey. Sorry to bother you.

Is that Leslie's voice. Is she there?

Let me check for you.

I gotta take you both to the station.

You know what? I'd like to see him drive all the way out here in the middle of nowhere to get you.

You know why? Because he wouldn't.

Arrgh.

Stanley.

House: Mr. Doyle.

I need a favour.

I need you to bring Stanley Westcott back to Corner Brook immediately.

Excuse me?

This is Crown Prosecutor Maria House.

Look. I know you're just doing your job.

And that your son Jake is currently transporting him here.

But that can't happen.

Why is that?

I've just filed new charges against

Big Charlie and Stanley Westcott in Corner Brook.

New charges.

Charlie Archer. A.K.A. Big Charlie and Stanley operated two call centres.

One here and one on the West Coast.

So he broke laws in both cities.

But why would it matter to you if he's tried in Corner Brook or St. John's?

House: No one knows this case as well as I do.

And it has to happen in my jurisdiction.

Please. Would you call your son?

I don't actually remember his number. It just says Jake in my phone.

House: We're not done here.

So make yourselves comfortable.

I need a space.

You can use my office.

Des: Twenty six.

Twenty seven.

[Phone rings.]

Hello.

Mal: I don't want to know. Whatever it is--

Just stop it.

No, I'm just exercising. But I've only done my legs and arms.

And if I don't balance it, I'm gonna look like a triangle.

Sixty one.

Work on your figure later.

I need you to look into a Crown Prosecutor.

Hey there.

You didn't happen to see this guy around, did you?

He's about six feet, really annoying. He's got this--

"Everyone thinks I'm guilty, but I'm actually I'm innocent" complex.

Did I mention he's a massive tool?

If I go back to St. John's, Big Charlie will k*ll me.

Big Charlie doesn't like it when his partners turn on him.

We're not partners.

I worked for him.

I'm just a software guy.

Yeah. Sure you are, Pally. Come on.

Take it easy.

Come on!


I get motion sickness. I know my rights.

Well, I know your rights too.

In fact, I have a written copy on hand for situations just like this.

Good, I'll show you the section I'm referring to.

Come on, Jake!

In case of emergencies.

This will not help my motion sickness.

Yeah, well the exhaust fumes will take the edge right off.

Leslie: Make yourself at home, why don't ya?

Have you ever worked with this Crown Prosecutor before?

Years ago, when she was an up-and-comer.

She's a maverick and she can make life tough for all of us.

Look, I know you have a history with Big Charlie.

Wouldn't it be great to bring him down?

I can't say that it wouldn't.

Play nice with House and we will.

In one sweep.

[Phone rings.]

Jake? Where are you?

Just checking in. I'm on a case.

I heard.

Listen. There's a lot of interest with this you're bringing in.

And we both know what Big Charlie is capable of.

There's no way I'm gonna run into that moron. Big Stupid--

Charlie--

Stanley: [on walkie] Why are we stopping?

Shut up!

You shut up.

No, Leslie, not you. Hold on.

Jake!

Charlie.

Jake Doyle.

Have we ever got some business to discuss.

Nice car there, old man.

Get out, Jake.

I get it. It's new, but it's supposed to look old.

I appreciate the design, but personally, I'm a bigger fan of the original myself.

I said: out.

Word of advice. Next time.

Don't get out of your new car before the fella you're chasing-

[GTO revs.] gets out his own.

[Tires squeal.]

Stanley: I'm gonna throw up. But don't stop!

Jake: Oh. This isn't good. Hang on.

Stanley: Jake. Jake. Can you hear me?


Find. Stanley. Westcott.

Don't worry Miss House, I'm on it.

This one's personal for me. Me and Jake go way back.

Trust me when I tell you.

He'll never reach the overpass.

Well he better not.

Stanley:[on radio] Jake, can you hear me?

Jake: [on radio] I can hear you! Shut up!


He's using the radio.

Idiot.

Jake. I don't wanna die like this.

[Horn honks.]

[Horn honks.]

[Horn honks.]

[Tires squeal.]

See. Charlie. I get out first. This is how it's done.

Jake Doyle. Once again, you're sticking your nose into my business.

[Walkie noise.]

What was that?

Uh, just the engine settling down. Speaking of--

You upgraded your two wheels to four and you got rid of the denims.

I mean,the scam business must be treating you well.

Easy t*nk.

t*nk?

I don't run with the Chevaliers any more.

I'm a legit businessman now.

Right. So--

I know you're after Stanley Westcott and a ten thousand dollar payday.

But I'm here to
tell you that it's in your best interest to not get involved.

That kinda sounds a bit like a thr*at.

I don't know what you've heard about Stanley.

But he can't be trusted.

He's trying to pin this call centre crap on me.

I just wanna ask him why?

And you brought t*nk along to take notes, did you?

Look, just tell us where Stanley is. We can clear this whole thing up.

I don't know what the hell you're talking about.

But if I come across a fella named Stanley, or whatever, I'll give you a call.

Remember what I told you.

He can't be trusted.

Come here.

Arrgh.

He's not gonna give up.

Leslie.

Phone.

Now.

Tinny: Hey. Where are you off to?

We should do something.

I'm just about to run to work. Well, work related. I mean, not that you couldn't relate. I mean, you will work again.

You know, just not this week.

I'm suspended. Not fired.

Relax.

[Phone rings.]

Jake.

Des.

I need you to look into Charlie Archer.

Find anything you can on him.

Big Charlie? The biker?

Yeah. He's shifted gears and now he's behind this scamming in some call centre.

Just -- Get on it right away.

Ah, Tinny!

Did you really just say that to me?

I'm on it. Not Tinny. The call centre. Bye.

A case?

I'm in.

I'm not really sure I feel comfortable. Somehow I feel like this is gonna get me into trouble.

If I don't do something, I'm gonna lose my mind.

Fine. But-- if Jake catches us, I don't know you.

Okay.

[Phone rings.]

Stanley: So-- Who's Leslie?

Girlfriend? Wife?

I noticed a lot of calls from her. If you want my advice--

I don't.

You should talk more.

Most of your calls only lasted a couple of minutes.

And all those texts.

So impersonal.

Oh my God.

Seriously. I mean, if she means something to you, you gotta work for it.

We're both busy.

Okay? She's a cop. And I got my own--

A cop?

Wait, wait, wait. We're so not talking about this.

Even still-- You're lucky.

All these years, I never met the right one.

Buddy, I'm not your therapist.

I didn't take this gig to sit here and listen to you.

Maybe someday, when I'm cleared of all charges.

You took a deal to testify against Charlie Archer.

And then you ran away with a boat load of money.

You're guilty. You might as well deal with that.

You think whatever you want. All I ever did was work for him.

So what did you do, anyway?

He paid me to write a few lines of code.

It optimizes the credit card charging process.

You mean, optimize the best way to rip a bunch of innocent people off.

No. I was always clean. But can the script be used to automatically make extra charges to the customer's credit card? Yes.

So do you actually have any real evidence against this guy or is it just your word against his?

Oh, I've got evidence.

I can tell you that.

I can also tell you if we don't stop soon, we're gonna have a problem.

Excuse me.

Oh my God!


Oh, you're disgusting.

Tinny: This place is totally shut down.

Oh, no that's okay.

There's still some computer equipment here that I can access.

See, if I can find some traces of some old code, I might be able to see what Stanley was up to.

You look really amazing, by the way.

The suspension. It really suits you.

Thanks Dezzy.

You're looking pretty fit yourself.

Yeah?

So how's Grayson doing--

By the way.

He's planning a trip-- for us to meet his folks.

I think it's too soon, though. What do you think?

Oh, well, I think that--

[Sound of door.]

Someone's coming.

Don't worry. I got this.

Okay, but remember -- discretion.

Excuse me, Sir. Can I have a word or two?

[Whispering]
Oh Tinny. Not the badge.

[Phone rings.]

Hello?

What have you found out on House?

Ah, not much. Almost zero.

What have you been doing?

Jake needed me to do a thing.

Oh, well if Jake needed you to do something, then --

Yeah, I knew you'd understand.

No, I don't understand!

What did you find out on House?

Okay. Details are scanty.

But I did learn that House brought charges against Big Charlie four times.

How did those cases go?

All mistrials.

Odd.

Keep looking into House. I'll be in touch.

Okay.

I wonder where Jake is.

Yeah.

Crown Prosecutor Marie House wants Stanley returned to Corner Brook.

Something about new charges.

We think she wants to rig the case.

She has a history of mistrials with old Charlie.

Jake: She's not the only one.


Big Charlie is after him too.
I'm telling you.

There's more going on here than this whole thing about Stanley testifying.

Rose: Where are you at now?

Jake: Goobies. And I'm almost home.

Which is good.


Because aside from you, Dad, this fella Stanley is one of the most annoying people I've ever met in my entire life.

Mal: Conduct yourself accordingly.

Tinny does not need to see any more of this kind of behaviour from you.

So that's what this is about.

Tinny being suspended. Look. This is your fault. Alright?

You're the patriarch. This crap flows from the top.

I'm not the one who can't get someone from point A to point frickin' B.

Oh, I can get him there You wanna make a bet?

I'll bet you the full commission you can't get him to the police station by end of day.

Mal!

Jake: Ten thousand bucks?

Easy money for me, old man.

Is that Jake?

Yup.

Jake?

Stanley!

Where you running to?

You gotta stop running away from me.

We've been through this before, like, twenty minutes ago.

All this crazy driving. I get disoriented.

And I don't have my motion sickness pills.

Right. Turns out you're a very popular guy.

You're wanted in Corner Brook now. A whole slew of new charges.

Oh, not me. That's all Big Charlie.

Right.

Well, I don't care.

Because our destination is St. John's.

That's where my payday is. Whether you like it or not.

Stanley: Final warning.

I do get extreme bouts of motion sickness.

Oh my God. You're like dealing with a six year old. Come here.

Give me your arm.

Is this really necessary?

Ah, yes. It is necessary.

Because I don't trust you.

May cause drowsiness. Good.

Come on.

It's odd of your old man to gamble with you like this.

A father is supposed to instil a moral compass.

I suppose your old man was perfect, was he?

He was pretty close.

Until my mom d*ed.

I was only nine.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that. My mother d*ed when I was young too.

It's okay.

He ended up turning to the bottle for a bit of comfort.

I couldn't blame him for that. Likely why I never had kids.

So is this Leslie someone that you see bearing children with?

Would you just take those pills. In fact, take all of them, if you can, now.

But these make you sleepy. You could have gotten the daytime ones, you know.

Yeah. I know.

What's going on?

Stanley: How ironic. We where just at a gas station.

Breathe on me.

Excuse me?

Oh my God. You reek of gas!

What the hell? Did you siphon all the gas out of my car?

I'm sorry. I can't go to St. John's.

I think it's time we got out of the car and you got a little bit of exercise.

You think House has given up?

Doubt it.

Clever.

House heard everything.

A little help would be great.

No, no. You gotta work up a sweat.

Get all the gasoline out of your pores.

[Phone rings.]

Sorry. I gotta take this.

Don't worry.

I'm headed back to town at a full clip.

House knows your location.

She might be sending someone after you.

Doesn't matter, okay. I am definitely gonna win this bet.

Hang on for a second.

Stanley: This looks bad.

Jake: Toby Quinton.


We went to the Police Academy together.

Dear God. You were a cop?

What are you doing?

Get in.

Toby Quinton?

Jake! What?

How are you? What are you doing?

Look. Not a lot of time to talk. See that guy right there?

He's coming for you.

He wants Stanley.

I don't have him, Jake. You do.

He's in your car, you idiot.

He's in my car?

Hey b'ys! How are you doing?

That's Big Charlie Archer.

He is very dangerous. You gotta take him down. Listen to me.

I'll get Stanley to safety. Go! Now!

Jake! I can't. I don't even know what you're talking about.

Jake? We need to talk.

Give me your keys. Quick.

I'll get Stanley away. Go! Go!

Ah, sir. I'm gonna ask you to step back, now. Please --

I just need to talk to Jake.

Quinton! You gotta do something. Do something! Give me the keys.

Shut up!

I am an officer of the friggin. Court!

Do not push me.

Quick. Keys!

Alright. Down on your knees. Now!

Please. Before someone gets hurt.

I just need to talk to Jake.

Stanley: That wasn't nice what you did to that sheriff.

You confused him.

Yeah--
Well he's easily confused.

And trust me, he's not such an angel.

He was the biggest bully in our class in the Academy.

If I was you, I'd take a look in the mirror.

What the hell is that supposed to mean?

You might see a little bully staring back at you. That's what it means.

Look at this. A standard sheriff dash camera.

Is it recording?

Not anymore.

So destructive.

[Phone rings.]

Excuse me.

Dad. You were right. House sent a sheriff after us.

But we gave him the slip.

Good.

By stealing his car.

Not so good.

The pressure of this bet is getting to you.

The sheriff was Toby Quinton.

Quinton?

Is that the guy that flunked the RNC Cadet Program three times?

And I was there for the last go around. He hates my guts.

I wonder why.

The point is, he's not gonna report it because it will make him look stupid.

House says it's to make sure he gets convicted.

But to send a sheriff after you?

You mentioned-She was a part of some other trial involving Big Charlie, right.

Maybe she's being paid to throw the trial.

There's something more going on here. Just keep me posted.

Will do. Oh, and Son.

Tick tock.

He is unnecessarily hard on you.

Do you have an off switch?

Let's go.

Mal.

Your not going anywhere.

House is charging you both with obstruction of justice.

I'm sorry.

You're under arrest.

Tinny: What are you doing, anyway?

I found the bank account where the extra credit card charges are being sent to.

Now, it's just a matter of finding which bank.

And running a code tracker to get the PIN. And then --

Bob's your uncle.

I gotta say. That's pretty impressive.

Ah, yeah. Very funny.

No. I'm serious, Des. You do a good job.

Really?

Wow. I'm so used to your--

sarcasm. You're compliments.

They feel unnatural.

Really. I mean--
You're talented.

I'm lucky -- We're all lucky to have you around.

And I'm starting to see that more and more.

[Phone rings.]

Thank you.

[Ring]

Aren't you gonna get that?

Nah. It's just Grayson.

He'll call back.

[Computer sound.]

Is that it?

Huh? Yes. Oh, uh. Yes.

And now to use the PIN to open the account.

It's empty.

Are you sure it's the right account?

Yeah. The money was deposited. One point five million.

But it's since been withdrawn.

We need to find out who withdrew it.

Port Aux Basques?

That's in the opposite direction.

So we're not going to St. John's?

Oh, buddy. We're going to town.

But Quinton doesn't need to know that.

So you want the sheriff to find the information.

You're a smart guy. Did you learn that from your dad?

He can't be all bad.

He's not that bad.

I can see that.

I've been working with my dad a long time.

I've learned a lot from him.

Wait, wait. How do you keep doing this to me?

We're not talking about this.

It sounds like he did okay, for a single parent.

Jake: A motorcycle.

That's from one of the Chevaliers. That means that Big Charlie is still a Chevalier.

Come on.

Motorcycles are death on wheels.

No way. I'd draw the line here.

You look very manly.

Now get on.

[Sound of bike starting up.]
What the--?

Hey!

Hey. It's me. Don't be mad. But-

I lost them. But--

I got it under control.

You are an idiot Quinton.

You really are.

[Screaming]
Don't call me that!

I need that phone.

Malachy Doyle.

You give me Stanley Westcott.

And I will drop the obstruction charges.

I wish I could help you.

What are you doing?

You're under a lot of stress.

I get that.

This hasn't been easy for any of us.


You need a hug. Come on. Come on.

There you go. That's it.

Yeah. All right. See? Isn't that better?

Um.

Yeah.

I believe I've made my point.

Uh.

Give me Westcott. And you can go.

I gotta say. That was pretty hot.

You think that was hot? Check this out.

All this forced air isn't good for my sensitive duodenum.

Do not throw up on my back, Stanley.

I can't help it. It's coming up.

Jake: Hang on.

Stanley: It's coming.


It's coming!

Get away from me.

[Phone rings.]

Yeah. What's happening?

House wants to charge us with obstruction.

Now I see where Tinny gets it. From you.

Shut it.

We have something on House. Seems she's had several email money transfers in the past number of weeks.

They're all for the same amount. Eleven hundred dollars. And --

It looks like they're going into a business account.

You think that Big Charlie has been paying off House?

Mal: We're not sure. But it seems strange that she's putting it into a business account. Not some untraceable one.

But it does explain why House wants Stanley so bad.

Big Charlie is paying House to pin this all on Stanley.

You're definitely on to something, okay. So just stay on House.

Mal: Will do.

In the meantime, son. I know this wager is taking its toll on you. You're off your game.

There's no shame in backing out right Well, a little shame.

But you're used to that.

Not a chance, old man. Okay. I am nearly home free.

[expl*si*n.]

Stanley.

Did you see that?

Why did you do this?

I told you Jake. I'm not going to St. John's.

Jake: That motorcycle was owned by those bikers, okay. When they get over here, they're--

Son of a bitch!

Arrgh!

Mal: We need to find out what House is doing.

And I think I know how.

Hood: Sorry guys.

I need to take you to get processed.

Hood.

Daniel. We need to see Leslie.

Now.

Don't you think a motorcycle woulda come in handy right about now?

I told you I get motion sickness!

But I see your point. And I got a bad knee.

Not so fast.

Jake: Come on!

Gimme that!

Stanley: Do something!

That's your plan?


You're gonna call in air support?

Something like that.

[Sound of flare sizzling.]

Here we go!

[expl*si*n.]

Stanley: That's it!

I'm proud of you son.

Feels good, doesn't it?

Come on.

You know, if I had a son, Jake, I'd like him to be like you.

Tinny: I was able to get the bank manager to go through the security footage to see who withdrew the money.

They're sending it over now.

Wow. You must have been pretty persuasive. They never do that. Tinny!

You used your badge again. You can't be at it.

It's okay. Don't worry about me.

And--maybe-- the badge doesn't fit.

What?

I mean, it's in my blood to be a P.I. right?

And we make a good team.

[Computer sound.]

Oh. Ah! There it is. There it is.

It's Stanley Westcott.

I gotta call Jake.

Jake! Jake! Stanley took the money. I miss you.

Whew!

You need a better service provider.

I meant what I said.

That I wish I had a son.

You know, all this brings out a lot of regrets.

Why do I feel some big, you know, confession coming on?

I have regrets, Jake. In my personal life.

But I'm innocent of these charges that are against me.

I don't care. And you know what?

I know there's an entire other reason why you were trying to get away from me.

Here we go--

Arrgh. It's Big Charlie.

Just--

Charlie. Good news. I found your guy. But he's a bit of a runner.

Charlie: Get him t*nk.

Very disappointed, Jake, that you didn't take my advice.

You'd be surprised at how often I hear that.

Well, you know, I admire your determination. So here's what I'm gonna do--

I'm gonna give you fifteen thousand dollars to walk away.

That's five thousand dollars more than you stand to make turning Stanley in.

Something tells me you're just not gonna take no for an answer.

Let me get the cash.

[Punch]

[Punch]

There you go.

Watch yourself.

Charlie: t*nk!

t*nk! Your boss! He's in the car. He's gonna die.

Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!

Stanley: What now?

Jake: Stanley buddy. It' look like our luck has just changed.


Come on!

This is crazy!

Well Jake. This is where you get off. Or don't get on, as it were.

Great father you'd be.

Whoa!

[Tires screech.]

Stanley, I tell ya. If we get out of this alive I'm gonna end up k*lling you myself.

Where are we? Why did you knock me out?

I didn't knock you out. But if those fellas catch up to us, they're gonna knock us both out for good.

You're a dead man Doyle.

You gotta be kidding me.

It's music. It helps me think.

If you touch that again, I'll cut your paws off.

Is that your or your father speaking?

If he ever said that to you, he was wrong to do so.

Game over, Jake.

This looks fatal.

Just saying.

Jake. Jake!


Jake!

[Crash]

So this bet with Jake.

You're really sticking it to him.

You know it's just transference, he's not responsible for Tinny's suspension.

I know dear. But it's such a great stress reliever.

Ten thousand dollars is a lot of money.

You know Jake's the best. He might just win the bet.

I'm counting on it.

Malachy Doyle. Are you getting soft on me?

He needs the money right now.

I can't just give it to him. He'd never take it.

Hey, hey, hey. What's this?

A survey.

House commissioned an opinion poll to see if she'd win her district in a provincial election.

She's running for office?

Is the P.I. business that bad?

Jake: Okay, look. For the last time. You knocked yourself out.

I wouldn't hit you.

[Phone message sound.]

Des: Jake! Jake! Stanley took the money. I miss you!

Jake: You did scam the money from the call centre.


You lied to me.

I didn't scam anyone except Charlie.

The code sent the stolen client's money to his account.

So what? You stole from him.

My plan was to return it and testify against him.

I told the Crown I had solid evidence against Big Charlie for all of it.

But you don't have any evidence? Another lie.

I manufactured evidence. But his lawyer will blast holes through it.

And once the Crown finds out I don't have proof, Big Charlie will walk.

And I'll go to jail for a crime I didn't commit.

You know what? None of this is my problem anyways. Okay?

All I gotta do, is just get you to St. John's.

Stanley: You okay, Buddy? +++
Yeah, I'm just a little drowsy.

Did you drug me?

I told you to get the daytime ones.

Des: A month ago, Stanley Westcott withdrew the bilked money from a bank in Bay Roberts.

And then was picked up an hour and fifteen minutes later at Goobies.

The police never found the money on him, which means he stashed it somewhere in between.

True.

But, he wasn't planning on getting caught. So chances are-- he hid the money before the cops grabbed him.

Which means the money is somewhere in Goobies.

I'm gonna text Jake and let him know.

So. You're still alive.

Yeah. I was just helping Des with something.

I was able to switch some shifts around.

And now I'm off tomorrow. So we could leave tonight.

As long as there's nothing stopping you.

No.

Not unless-- you need me.

Naw. We've done all we can now.

It's up to Jake.

Great.

Well, I'll pick you up at your place in an hour.

Bye.

What are you doing?

Jake, I'm truly sorry. I really wish I could let you take me in.

And get that money.

Hey! Hey! Hey! Take it easy.

I told you he was trouble.

[Phone rings.]

[Slurring]
Leslie.

Jake. Are you okay?

It kinda feels like you've been avoiding me all day.

No, I'm good.

You know what? I really love...you.

Ah, Jake?

[Knock, knock, knock.]

Looks like it's my lucky day.

Quinton?

You had me headed out to Port aux Basques.

It's beautiful there this time of year.

No it's not.

You wanna get out of the car?

I was--

I was drugged.

Gotta tell you, Jake.

I've been dreaming about this moment for a long time.

You realize how creepy that sounds?

And here you are.

Literally gift wrapped for me.

I think the word you're looking for is figuratively, but-- whatever.

You have been a thorn in my side for a long time, Jake.

If you're thinking about trying something, I know I'm a little messed up, but don't forget I can still kick your--

[Punch]

Ye-ew! Man. That felt great.

Arrgh.

Quinton: You're under arrest for D.U.I.

Yeah. A bunch of things wrong with that.

I wasn't drunk. And I wasn't driving.

Details.

Oh. And you're not a cop.

Thanks to you.

Woulda made it that last time. Guaranteed.

Except for that one little hiccup.

Hiccup? You sh*t our instructor in the foot.

You told me it was empty. You looked me in the eyes and said: Quinton, the clip is empty.

I said the clip was empty, but there's one in the chamber.

See if you want to be a cop, you gotta check those things.

It was my dream, Jake.

Real law enforcement. Now you're trying to ruin my life again.

Yeah, the whole stealing your car, kind of thing, that was Stanley's idea.

And you were directly responsible for wrecking two others.

I had to use my supervisor's car.

This is your supervisor's car?

Ah --

Oh God.

What's going on back there?

I get motion sickness whenever I'm in the back seat.

Remember that time, after that party--I threw up in your car?

That was you?

You better not throw up in my boss's car.

I'll try not to, but -- Oh--

You're not giving me another choice.

Toby--

Whoa.


Get out and get in the front.

Don't try anything or I'll sh**t you in the foot.

Oh, that would be very poetic.

Oh my God, Quinton.

What did you do to the door?

Oh no. What?

[Crash]

You'll be alright.

[Phone rings.]

Hello.

Charlie: Stanley says that you know where the stash is.

But in case it's another one of his lies, I need you to bring it.

When you do, you can have Stanley back. I won't be needing him any more.

It turns out that he's got nothing on me.

Alright fine.

Meet me at the Goobies gas station. We'll do the exchange there.

Breaking into my briefcase?

What were you thinking?

I am a Crown Attorney. Do you have any idea --

[Phone rings.]

Don't even think about it.

Mal.

I'm sorry. I have to.

It's not like we can get in any more trouble.

Jake.

Tell your son--

No problem.

We'll send help soon.

Everything okay?


It's gonna be.

Leslie. Jake's gonna text you an address.

Okay.

Sergeant. Hold on.

I want Stanley Westcott. Or you're going to jail.

I don't think you're gonna be charging us with anything.

He's right. So stop playing politics.

Would you give us a second?

This was really informative.

So I throw my hat in the political ring.

Happens all the time.


It's not illegal.

No. But obstructing a case to score points in your riding is.

High profile case where you're in the news every day can only help in an election bid.

Well.

It looks like It's my word against yours on that.

Rose: True.

But--

We do know about those individual campaign contributions all for the same maximum amount.

Again, nothing illegal about that. But I think the press is gonna have a field day with this story.

You've made your point.

One more thing.

Jake needs you to make a call.

You okay, Stanley?

I don't see my money.

Relax. You'll get it. I know where it is.

Right Stanley?

Alright.

Hand over Stanley.


Fine with me. Take him.

He's going to jail after the trial, anyway.

Although according to him, this is actually really his money.

Seeing as he was behind the entire scheme.

What?

Yeah. Stanley said you were just the muscle, as usual. This whole thing was his idea.

That's why his testimony is crap. He had nothing on you.

I didn't tell you that, Jake.

I didn't tell him that.

This idiot. He talks a lot. Trust me.

He just designed the code.

He didn't know that me and my g*ng were gonna use it to steal clients money.

Now hand it over, now.

[Sirens]

Oh, hey. Perfect timing.

Stanley here will be awaiting trial from a jail cell.

No.

I think you're the one who's going to jail.

You see. There's a little camera there in the dashboard of this police car.

And it kinda caught your whole confession.

Did you get all that Quinton?

Loud and clear. Got it all on tape.

Afternoon fellas.

Let you slip away once today, but not again.

What is this?

Shut it.

That's what it is.

I want you two to cuff yourselves together.

Get down on your knees.

You got this Quinton?

Oh, I more than got this.

Listen. With all your help here.

I'll talk to the cops.

And maybe you'll get another sh*t at the Academy.

You're not going anywhere, Jake.

I'll sh**t your tires out.

Is he serious?

Oh, I'm more than serious.

[Click]

[Click]

Jake: Remember.

I told you. You always gotta check--

The chamber.

The chamber. That's where the b*ll*ts go, buddy.

Let's go get that ten thousand dollars.

Thanks for bringing my car back.

It ain't over, Jake!

[Tire squeal.]

Damn it!

Stanley: We hit the overpass pretty soon. You're gonna win this bet.

What are you doing?


Go on. Get out before I change my mind.

You're a good man, Jake.

Sweet gesture, but unnecessary.

We have the evidence.

Big Charlie's gonna be going down. I'm not.

Are you sure?

I mean, you can stay on the run until all the charges are dropped.

I'm sure. You deserve your payday.

Thanks for everything.

Thank you for an interesting road trip.

Well, the best part is-- All those people get their money back.

Now, I know you don't want to hear this, but--

You should really call your girlfriend.

Yeah. If I still have one.

I hope your father is proud of you, Jake.

He is.

And Stanley. I hope some day you have a family of your own.

Heh, heh. I lied about that.

I have three sons, two daughters, all in university.

Very successful.

Unbelievable.

Thanks.

Hi.

Sergeant Bennett.

Tinny. You know my name. We're both off duty here.

Yeah. I've been off duty all week.

But you already knew that.

You got a lot of potential. But you're still a rookie.

And you're developing a bit of an attitude.

If you say so, Sarge.

Cut it out. And quit acting like a rebel.

The Force has no place for it.

So think long and hard about your future.

You'll have a good one if you don't mess it up.

Hey. I thought you were leaving with Grayson.

Are you okay?

I wasn't feeling too hot.

Well, you look hot.

See you guys.

Is she okay?

I think so.

Come on back here. Tell me again how you saved the day.

Well, son. I'm impressed.

And a bet is a bet.

You get the full fee.

You know, either you're getting soft in your old age--

Or you wanted me to win that bet.

No Jake. You get the cash. You won the bet fair and square.

Whoa.

Sorry.

Mal: Jake.

Meet Inspector Smallwood.

So you're the Jake Doyle, huh?

I've heard a lot about you.

Yeah, well. I've never heard of you, so-- Nice to meet you.

Inspector, have a drink on us.

Jake: Yeah. Sure. Why not?

Ned will set you up all the way over there.

Thanks Malachy. I think I will. See you around, Doyle.

What a tool.

This is why you have no friends. You're lucky to have Leslie.

[Phone rings.]

Ah, speak of the devil.

Well, hello, Leslie Bennett. Are you--

[Beep]

Hello? Leslie?

It doesn't feel so good when you got someone hanging up on you all the time, does it?

No.

No, it feels awful and terrible. And I'm--

I'm really, really sorry about that.

How about I make it up to you?

I'll take you to a really nice, quiet place. Very close.

Like upstairs and we can-- We can make out?

No.
