S1 E15Unfinished Business

Just take the mob out of it.

What? Take the mob out of it?

Hear me out. Isn't this just a breach of contract?

These guys had a deal, right? And your boy, Ray, he lived up to his end, but Moscone didn't. And for that, there's not a court of law in this world this lady can go to.

Which is exactly the kind of case we take.

Oh, come on. I don't--why Teresa?

I don't know. Well, her man's gone to jail for fifteen years, and she's waiting for him. For fifteen years. Do you have any idea how hard it is, to wait for someone?

Yeah, okay. Yeah, okay, let’s go rob Nicky Moscone, a guy who kills people and lives in our city. Yeah, let's do that.

…Oh, and then there's the FBI parked around the corner.

FBI? Where?

See that crappy van? Says "Plumber"?

Mm-hm.

Did you say "plumber"? That's their cover? Aw, aw, that is so cute. It's like it's 1978 all over again.

Relax. We're with the bureau. Howdy. Special Agent Thomas. This is special agent Hagen. She's fresh out of Quantico. I'm showing her all the hot spots, you know. Uh-Huh. Oh, by the way, we got your memo. We're moving it up the chain.

What? Hey. G-great. Thanks. Well, come on in. Sorry about the heat, and the smell.

Huh. How did he know that?

Oh, the field guys are always sending memos. They just need validation.

I saw some rubber gloves. What do you do with those?

MMcSweeten

Oh, actually, we've just been kind of blowing them up and playing volleyball. But, uh, yeah, if we need to do any kind of investigation…

All you have to do is rip them on my flash drive and run.

I don't have to type anything, right?

No, just plug it in. It does the rest.

All right, 'cause you know I just learned the Photoshop thing you told me.

I-I know. Baby steps.

So I just plug it in.

[Eliot walks into the server room, only to discover that the audio is on cassette tapes]

Now, audio files, they can take a little while to run, but, uh, the servers are pretty loud, so that should give you some cover.

It's tapes.

Wha-hold, wait. Did y-you just say "tapes"?

I just said "tapes"!

Cassette tapes?

Your little thing, it's not gonna work.

But at least you ain't got to type nothing.

Hardison, how am I supposed to get out of the FBI offices with a box full of surveillance tapes, huh?

Punch somebody!

[Threateningly] Oh, I'm gonna punch somebody.

Can you break the codes?

The codes? The codes to the Cayman Bank and Trust, where the Cali cartel and the African dictators keep all their dirty money? The ones that Moscone changes anytime he damn well pleases? Like, it's c-come on. Dude, are you kidding me?

You know, you're-you're very negative lately.

Yeah.

And the sass, it doesn't-doesn't help.

[As they listen to a recording of Moscone and his wife arguing]

It's a bit like an opera, isn't it?

You mean 'cause I want to run away?

Sophie. Where are we at?

Huh? I don't know, Nate. I think you need to ask yourself that question. You called me, remember? And now we're working together every day. I don't know what you want. And to ask me that dressed like a vicar? You're a very strange man.

No, no, no. I meant where are we at with finding the money?

How are we doing? How's the search?

I haven't started yet.

Okay, you know, I haven't gotten one answer I was looking for today. What is it that you're doing? What's going on?

I'm cutting onion, deveining shrimp, uh, pan-searing some scallops. I've got 200 people I got to feed, all right? Back off.

Okay, okay. Hmm.

What, you think the only thing I know how to do is bust heads?

No, well, yeah.

Look, hold a knife like this—[forehand grip]—cuts through an onion. Hold a knife like this? [switches to a backhand grip] Cuts through, like, eight Yakuza in four seconds. Screams, carnage. People are like knives. Everything is in context.

Hey, we find the money, we get out before it starts. You know, I swear, I never understood the lengths people go with these things. I mean, the endless--you know, the dresses, and the endless toasts, and the crying. And, and, you know, it's just--it's unbelievable to me. And everyone has a role to play, right? And the bride and groom at the end of the day, they go home with a pile of cash. And if you really think about it, the whole thing is just a giant, giant con.

Well...aren't you romantic.

I take it you've never been married.

No.

Ever come close?

No.

What was her name?

There was this girl I grew up with. But anyway, she married somebody else, so...

Hot damn. What did you do?

What did I do? I liberated Croatia.

Oh, see, now, me, I would have just got fat and started up a comic book shop. That's you and me right there.

I know that you're in charge of the bridesmaid dresses, but why are you wearing one?

A bridesmaid dress is like an all-access pass at a wedding. Plus, I kind of said something and the maid of honor cried, and Sophie said I should make it up to her.

Looking much, much better in the same dress? Yeah, you let me know how that goes.

You really think I look good?

[After setting the corsage] And now you're perfect.

What is it? I've got bacon on.

The butcher is here.

Does he have the baby lamb chops?

No, the Butcher of Kiev.

Think he'll recognize you?

[Flashback]

BKButcher of Kiev

I kill you!

[End Flashback]

Yeah, I think he'd remember me.

Why are y'all looking at me? Okay, look, the guest list didn't raise any red flags with the feds.

[In the FBI Van]

MMcSweeten

Looks like Steve and Scott Miller arrived.

There sure are a lot of Millers at this wedding.
