JEFF (CRYING): Please...
Please, forgive me!

- I'm sorry!

Please!

Please forgive me!

CHARLES: Grab your toolbox.

I wanna cut off his eyelids!

- His eyelids?
- I wanna watch him suffer.

Come on!

I thought you wanted me to sh**t him

after he was done digging the hole.

I changed my mind.

JEFF: I, I, I, know. I'm sorry.

- I need to breathe.
- Thank you.

- Please.
- CHARLIE: Hold up. Hold up.

Hey, uh, I think we're
going to call this off.

What, no eyelids? Just sh**t him?

- No, I-I don't want him dead.
- Thank you.

I thought you said you wanted
to watch him suffer.

I know, but, um, he's asked
for my forgiveness.

Y-you know, he made some valid points,

so, uh, I'm forgiving Jeff.

- You're forgiving Jeff.
- I'm sorry I f*cked your wife.

He's sorry he f*cked my wife! (LAUGHS)

You know, and she's
no saint either, okay?

There's a whole history
we don't need to get into.

I... I think I just overreacted.

I heard about that.

Heard about it. But you weren't there?

No.

Well, we heard that you were there.

I wasn't. Because no one survived.

How would you know that
if you weren't there?

I saw it on Citizen App?

Can you tell me what that pin says?

Mm-hm.

Any idea where we found it?

Well, they do hand them
out at banks back home.

- Hank...
- After you pay your debts.

Well, we found that one
in the trunk of a car

next to a detective's dead body.

Wow.

Wow.

Wow. (LAUGHS)

What the f*ck?

That is super f*cked up. You know?

What does this have
to do with monastery?

We think the cases are linked.

And we can put you outside the monastery

a few days before the sh**ting.

Touché.

Dr. Watsons.

Yes.

These two cases are linked.

Same man who sh*t at monastery

is also f*cking idiot

My patience was here.

Now, it's here.

Just tell us, Hank.

His name is...

- the Raven.

- It's a fake name.

You're saying this...
Raven k*lled Detective Moss

- and sh*t up the monastery?
- HANK: I know he did.

Anytime someone compromises
Chechen operation,

he's sent down by top
brass to take care of it.

And he never fails.

You know, you should
really Wikipedia "raven."

You'll see the name works on,
like, three different levels.

Okay, where do we find him?

The name is not just random
is what I'm saying.

MAE DUNN: Mr. Cousineau,
thank you so much for coming in.

We've been spending the last six months

putting our case together,

and we have some information for you.

Now, I want you to look at

That's the man, and he
is connected to Barry.

That man, Mr. Cousineau...

is a Chechen assassin
they call the Raven.

The what?

He k*lled Janice.

Yeah, we cleared Barry.

Ever since I met that punk,

bad things have happened to me.

The love of my life, dead.

My acting class, dead.

Mr. Cousineau, you of all people
should know what it's like

to be accused of a crime
you didn't commit.

left a pretty big audition...
