All language subtitles for Stumptown - S01E13 - The Dex Factor

Previously on "Stumptown"...

It's a peer-to-peer group
that I go to.

You should come.

Vets and active military
from all over the country

drop in whenever
they're in town.

It's no big deal.

The people I work for?

They're into something
way bigger.

I wanna know what else
they're up to. I wanna
know the bigger play.

We stumbled into something
above our pay grade.

Heroin.

Hoffman,
we have a problem.

How'd your crew
score the heroin?

They told me they boosted
a delivery truck

and the drugs
were on the back.

Arrieta.

You're a jackass
and you're dirty.

You're on the take with
whoever got their heroin stolen?

What's the plan now?

I get someone
to front as a buyer.

We need your help, Dex.

Rear view mirror?

Check.

Side view?
Check.

Brake?

Check.

Turn signal?
Check.

Seat belt?

Check.

Hands?

Check.

Okay, buddy.

Let's eat.

Here you go.

Mm-mm-mmm!

For you.

Mmm. Good burger.

Dex, when do I
get to drive?

Ansel, slow down!

Well, don't look at me!
Look at the road!

Look at this

I don't want to die.

I don't want to die.

All in good time, buddy.

All in good time.

Can you explain this?

It looks like
an application.

With your handwriting
on it.

Well,
I helped fill it out.

So, it was your idea?
Did I say that?

Well, he got it
from somewhere.

Well, maybe
he's sick of having people

drive him around
all the time, okay?

He wants
a little independence.

And I think that's normal.
No, it's dangerous.

Don't you think you're
overreacting just a little bit?

It is my job
to protect him.

Fine.
Then don't sign it.

Yeah, sure.
Make me the bad guy.

Well, I'm not
his legal guardian.

So yes, it's up to you.

Look, Ansel likes cars.

He wants to drive.

Guess what?
Your brother's a dude.

Am I interrupting?

Yeah.
No.

Either way,
let's get started.

Name?

What're we,
role playing now?

Just answer
the question.

Chrystal.

Chrystal what?

Is this jackass for real?

She just call me
a jackass?

Look, the less
we know about each other,

the less chance
we rat each other out

if one of us gets pinched.

And the fact
that you guys don't know that

tells me you're
a bunch of chooches.

All you need to know is
I have a million dollars cash

not far from here.

And you,
you have a ton of heroin

that you need to unload
before you make a stupid mistake

and end up in jail
or dead or worse.

And trust me,
there is a worse.

So...shall we make a deal?

I mean,
she had me at "chooches."

Don't underestimate
these guys.

They're in
over their heads.

That makes them
unpredictable.

Once you meet Leo,
you wait for him to call.

If he does
Wild guess

I give them the money,
and I take the drugs.

Is the sarcasm
really necessary?

This is serious.

I know.
One last thing

What's this?
Basic boilerplate stuff.

Protects the department
against lawsuits

in the highly unlikely event
that you're killed

Or maimed.

I had to sign one, too.

Maimed?

You'll be in and out.

No one's getting maimed.

Table is dirty.

Must'a just happened.

No, there were 10 spots,
right in front.

And for a half a block walk,
we park for free.

Can I help you?

Yeah. What kind of food
do you serve here?

Burgers and fries.

It says so right there
burgers and fries.

I asked him.
He works here.

I'm looking him
right in the eyes.

I ask him a simple question,
yet you have to answer.

You know,
you could be Stephen Hawking,

I could ask you
about string theory,

she'd answer for you.

Well, where do you
want to sit?

Uh...

Oh, now he wants
my opinion.

Yes.
Like I want gout.

You know what?
Sit where you like.

I cede to you
that awesome power.

Thank you.

Let it be
on your tombstone.

"Here lies Morris Zivkin.

His life? Meh.

But at least he sat
where he liked."

Well, believe me, if I went to
my grave tomorrow...

...you'd come with me,
out of spite.

What's up?

Tookie, Grey left me
in charge. I need your help.

So, I understand your client
has agreed to cooperate.

If his conditions
are met.

You say that
like you have leverage.

My client's taking a huge risk
talking to you.

Your client took a huge risk
when he went on the take.

He has information.
We want assurances.

Federal pen, out of state,
and I want protective custody.

Not my call.

Cosgrove has pull.

Yeah, but you
burned that bridge.

You tell me
what I need to know,

maybe I'll put in
a good word.

"Maybe's" not good enough.

Maybe...

I open these blinds.

The whole squad room sees you
in here, no union rep.

You know cops
they talk, they gossip.

I wonder how long
before those people you work for

find out
that you ratted them out.

Last chance.

Where are they?

Detective, if you think

you are going to
threaten my client

Seattle.

They work for people
who work for people.

It's like one of those
Russian dolls.

What do they know
about the heroin?

They know
it's gone missing.

They coming
to get it back?

Not personally.

Too smart.

So, they send a contract man
to retrieve it.

Or the money
it was sold for.

Or kill whoever took it.

How long do we have?

These people,
they don't mess around.

So if you're gonna pull a sting,
you better do it fast.

Hey.

Hello.

This is Chrystal.

Chrystal.

Ah! Well,
you must be Leo.

I hear good things.

Grey's word
goes a long way with us.

Well, Grey is
a man of his word.

If he wasn't,
I would not be here.

I got a question.

Okay. Shoot.

It's more of
an observation.

I don't see a lot of women
doing this kind of thing.

I thought it was
pretty progressive up here.

Turns out that chauvinistic pigs
are alive and well in Portland.

What'd you call me?
Sit down, Scuzzy.

Man, don't worry about it.
I ain't gonna hit a lady.

Well,
I can take care of myself.

Oh, I wasn't talking
about you.

Ooh.

Wow.

Well, you run
a tight ship.

Back off, Scuzz.

Sit down.

Well, uh,
money is ready to go,

if you're ready to
show me the product.

We'll keep you
in mind.

There's some other interested
parties we're talking to.

Well,
you better talk fast.

I go back to L.A. tonight.

Well, what's the hurry?

I value my life.

You talk to people, they talk,
word spreads.

People you ripped off might want
their product back, right?

So, you wanna do business
with me, give me a call.

You have until midnight.

Pleasure.

Everything
is falling apart.

Look at them.

I'll deal with them
in a minute.

What's our
biggest problem?

Corduroy, with sweater-shoulder
wrap-around. My God.

Ansel, you're looking at
the worst type of customers

in the foodi-verse.

Watch and learn, kiddo.

Ma'am, sir, I understand
you have some issues

with the service.

You call this service?

My
His hamburger is raw.

And my
His fries are cold.

And my soup
Never came.

Can I speak?

My deepest apologies,
but you're in luck.

Your meal's on the house.

Our meal is terrible.

His hamburger
is still mooing.

Not that meal.

The meal I'm about to prepare
just for you.

Tacos chicharon,

with my signature mole

and drinks on the house.

What do you say?

Hey, I found the courier.

Yeah, he stopped to
deliver a package

and left the keys in the van.

When he came out, it was gone.

Yes, sir. He told me
where the van was stolen.

Uh, good news is
he never reported it,

so I'll have
a leg up on the police

in tracking it all down.

Other than that,
he didn't have much to say.

I'll call you
when I have the next update.

What if he's just
not ready?

Then he's not gonna pass the
driver's test. That's it.

And then the problem
will solve itself.

It's a non-issue.

You guys want to finish that?

The bait's on the hook.

So, now we wait?

No.
Now Grey goes in,

and he, uh,
closes the deal with these guys.

If I go in too hard,
it'll blow the deal.

They'll go with Dex.
She made the right impression.

I think they're just
super scared

and they want to
get rid of the stuff.

Don't blame them.

The guys who lost the drugs

are sending someone
to get it back,

and they may be in town
already.

Well, that's not
disconcerting at all.

Good thing we signed
the waiver.

Either of you wants out,
now's the time.

Is that funny?

No, that's not funny, no.

But, I mean,
this is kind of funny.

What is?

This. Us.

The three of us
standing here together.

We're working
together now.

I mean...

It's a little awkward.

Yeah. I think it it
I think it...

Why?

Why?

You were both inside of me.

I mean,
not at the same time.

Group hug, I think?

Uh...

Let's take a selfie,
just so

Least t-take okay,
fi fi high fives.

Okay.

Hey, Dex.
Poppy, hi.

I wasn't sure
you'd be back.

Yeah. Me either.

Uh, but I was in the
neighborhood, so, you know?

I'm glad you're here.
Poppy, you're up.

Yeah.
Um, sorry.
I got winners, so

Oh, no worries.
I'll catch you later.

Good.

Hey, what
can I get for you?

Hey, uh,
whiskey neat, please.
Coming right up.

Howdy.

Hey.

I'm Violet.

Dex.

Dex.
Interesting name.

Oh, it's, uh,
short for something.

Hmm.

It's a long, excruciatingly
boring story.

The corps didn't teach you
how to embellish the truth

to make yourself
half interesting?

How'd you know
I was a Marine?

Bootlaces.
Jarhead wrap-around.

Old habits.

And, uh, you
let me guess.

You're, um, Army.

Is it that obvious?

Who else would be stupid enough
to insult a Marine?

How long were you in?

14 years, CID.

Criminal Investigation.
Interesting. Where?

Slums of Manila,
the favelas of El Salvador.

Anywhere our boys,
mostly boys...
Mm.

...were behaving badly.

You?
Marine intelligence.

Hmm.
That's an oxymoron.

Touché.

Stationed where?

A little Iraq.
Mostly Afghanistan.

Good times.
Mm. The fun zone.

And now?

Medical sales.

Oh. That sounds...

Boring. I know.

I prefer boring
these days.

So, uh...

You come to
a lot of these things?

Uh, no. This is my,
um, second time.

Just looking for people
Like me?

Normal people
wouldn't understand.

So you're...abnormal?
Oh, deflects with a joke.

Well...

Yeah, I was in that stage
for a while.

You've seen stuff.

I can tell.

It's all there
behind the eyes.

But you don't wear it.
Don't brag about it.

Probably have
a few commendations

lying in
a junk drawer somewhere,

out of sight, out of mind.

Ironic how they give medals

for things you're trying
to forget,

things you did
for the right reasons,

but that you can't forgive
yourself for

am I in the ballpark?

Pretty much, yeah.

You know, wherever I am,
traveling around the country,

I check into
one of these groups,

and it's like friends
wherever you go.

Hmm.

Well, I'll buy you a drink,
friend?

Sure. As long as you
don't bust my chops.

My drink. Sea-breeze.

Oh. Uh, grapefruit,
cranberry, and vodka.

Celery stalk.

Well, you're army,

so I guess something super
fruity makes perfect sense.

Mmm. I am stuffed.

This meal was
Delicious.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Okay.

I think
I have them covered.

You saved my butt.

But I know them
from somewhere.

I can't quite place it,
but I'm sure I know them.

You okay, Took?

I really could have
taken an Uber.

Oh, it's no trouble.

Besides, you're staying
in Snob Hill.

If you're living in style,
why not travel in style?

Sorry, are you laughing at
my sweet, sweet ride?

You are very funny.

I'm just gonna
Yeah, it's broken.

It You just got to
let it play out.

Gotcha.

So, um,
you going anywhere after?

Got a nice bottle of Carignan,
if you wanna

I wanna.

What's Carignan?

Sweet.

Beats a hotel.

For a few nights.

Gives me the illusion
I'm home.

Love all this
retro stuff.

Feels like I'm walking
into someone's life

you know, someone hipper
and much more stylish than me.

Ooh. Bender.

Cool.

Maybe later?

Uh...

I mean, seriously,
one is creepy. Four?

Novelty gifts
for clients.

Ah.

It's a long,
excruciatingly boring story.

The view sucks.

Yeah.
It's terrible, right?

What you were
saying before

about not being able
to forgive myself.

Yeah, well, look, there are two
types of people in the world.

Those who fight their demons
and those who embrace them.

Which one
do you think I am?

Only you can answer that.

But, um...

maybe not tonight.

I don't even have
your number.

Hmm. Here.

Add yours to my contacts.

Okay.

You want to know something kind
of cheesy but completely honest?

Sure.

I feel like I could
float away right now.

Really cheesy.

I feel the same way.

Dress that line, Mister.

Redo those buttons.

Dress that belt buckle!

Straighten that cap.

What's that on your chest,
Cheesecake?

It's a flair pin, sir.

A flair pin?

On your uniform?

It's a cheeseburger.

You will report
to this restaurant

tonight and every night
at 19:00 hours.

And without that flair pin!

Tookie.

Sorry. Be right back.
Excuse me.

Bad review.

"The mole was delicious
and well-prepared"...

Keep reading.

..."if you've just emerged
from being trapped in a well

for four years,

having only subsisted
on insects, rainwater,

and various types
of mold."

Yikes.

"Bad Alibi is simply
the worst kitchen

serving the worst food
in Portland."

It's that married couple
from Hell.

They're talking about
my mole.

But they said they like it.

That's what cowards do.

Smile to your face
and stab you in the Yelp.

Grey's gon gonna be mad.

Hey, one bad review
won't kill us, alright?

I know them from somewhere.

Hey, what's up?

Gotta get
my application in

for an exchange program
next semester.

The Wi-Fi here sucks.

Hey, Max.
Hey.

What you doing?
Nothing. Just thinking.

Oh, yeah?

What you thinking about?

Douglas, Arizona.

What's in
Douglas, Arizona?

Nothing.

I mean, uh, maybe
a few good places to eat.

An old movie theater.

You like old movies?

Max, you have a way
of talking around things.

It's just one of those places,
you know,

that no one really goes to,
so...

I was thinking maybe no one
would really look for us there.

God, I feel like
the school principal.

Catching you two
under the bleachers.

Suck it, Scuzz.

Looks like someone needs
to go to detention.

Or get expelled.

Alright, first of all,

your metaphors suck.

And second of all, Scuzzy,

you remind me
of one of those guys

who's just dying
to get his ass kicked.

And I'll tell you,
I'm happy to do it.

Mm-hmm.

Ow.
Whoa. Hey.

How's that?
Huh?

How's that? Yeah?

How's now?

Is there a problem here?

No, there's not
a problem here.

Grey's trying to get
in your girl's pants.

Is that true?

Well, first of all,
as a general rule,

you shouldn't listen
to guys named Scuzzy, Leo.

Max?

Leo, we're all trusting
you have this handled.

So if you're about
to crack up here,

you better tell me
right now.

I'm sick of this crap.

I'm out.

Not doing it.

You sure about that?

'Cause I want to go
with your buyer.

Hate for you to miss out
on that finder's fee.

Yeah, that would suck.

Have her here tomorrow
with the cash at noon.

That's a deal.

Because if I go
to Paris,

then the credits
won't transfer.

That's why.

Thank you!

Mom.
What a jerk.

Mom!

Mom!

I'm going to Madrid
or I'm not going anywhere.

Excuse me.

You're excused.

Uh, don't move.

You have a rather large bee
on your neck.

Uh, what? Where?
Uh, don't move.

Seriously.

Just, uh, right there.

Ow!
Oh, my God.

Did it sting you?

What the hell
did you do to me?

Oh, why don't you just, uh,
lie down here for a little bit.

There you go.

Madrid.

You stole a van.

That van
had product in it.

My employer wants his,
uh, product back.

Feel this?

That's a blow torch.
Oh, my God!

Which I can fire up right now,
or you can spare yourself

No, I want to
spare myself!

I-I definitely want
to spare myself!

Start talking.

I'm in this crew.
We steal cars.

We didn't know that
the van had drugs in it.

But we took it
as a goof.

But yeah,
we have the drugs.

The guy in charge, Leo

y-you want me to give you
his full name,

age, telephone number,
what?

Uh, later.

So, Leo's gonna sell them.

But he brought this new guy
into the crew Grey.

Grey's bringing up
the buyer.

But Leo's setting him up.

He's gonna keep the drugs.

He's gonna take
the buyer's money

and kill Grey.

But Grey
doesn't know that.

I would think not.

You want to tell me
where this is going down?

You show the cash
and leave.

You're not there
for the exchange.

Grey can handle
the logistics.

That's what you say.
And you clear out, okay?

This cash real?

Yeah.

Grey, you give her
like five minutes to leave

before you ask
to see the drugs.

As soon as the drugs
are presented, we move in.

Everybody clear?
Yeah, clear.

Clear.
Alright. Sit tight.

Cool.

It's crazy, right?

Yeah.

Anything I should know?

Uh, no. I don't know.
Like what?

Like something
you're not telling me.

I can tell
you're hiding stuff.

Me?
Yeah.

No.
I'm I'm good.

Okay, so, um,
the woman in the gang,

the pretty one
with the dreadlocks

Those aren't dreadlocks.

I knew it.

I knew it.

Here's the truth

she didn't want to be involved
in any of this.

Why do men do this?
She's under Leo's thumb.

The whole savior complex thing
is so played out.

It's just not fair to her
to go down with him on this.

She still has you
on the hook, Grey.

What are you talking about?

She does.

She's playing you.
No, she

Yeah, she is.
No, she Okay.

She does not have me
on the hook, okay?

She just
She just doesn't.
Yeah. Okay.

But...
Mm-hmm.

...if she could fall off
the truck somehow, safely,

when all this went down,

that'd be great.

And how are you
gonna pull that off?

Grey, we got to get you ready,
go get a wire.

Yeah. No, I was just
gonna zip it.

I'll get that side.
That side...

I can take it.

I got it. Thanks.

You got it.
Yeah.

You got it.

You said one bad review
won't kill us.

Sorry. I was lying
to make you feel better.

You should be chef.

Huh.

Joyful Enrichment!

I remember who they are!

It was before PDX Mex.

Back when I was
the Big Mensch-ilada.

I got this catering gig for
a mental health retreat.

And these people
stiffed me on the bill.

When I made noise,
they threatened

to report me
to the health department.

That's them. They killed
the Big Mensch-ilada.

Couples therapists.

I know
what you're thinking

how do a couple of phonies
like this

give life advice
to people?

You know what
the answer is?

Because the world sucks
sometimes, hermano.

Can we egg their house?

I understand your frustration,
but we can't.

And where did you
come up with that?

When I played soccer
at school,

one of the dads said
a mean thing about me.

So Dex egged their house.

Of course she did.

Why so grim?

You guys look like you're
going to the electric chair.

We can do this
in my office.

Sounds good.

Grey:
Nice meeting you guys.

Hey, it was really nice
to meet you.

Yeah.
Take care, Max.

Well, hot damn.

This is where
I delegate.

Meet you at the spot?

Sounds good.

Pleasure doing business
with you.

How do you know her?

I think we're done playing
"get to know each other."

You want to do a deal
or no?

I don't know what you're doing
here, but you need to leave.

I can't.

Dex
My best friend
is back there.

Please.

You need to go.

I don't want
to have to kill you, too.

Okay.

Okay.

Quickly.

Alright.

So, uh, where do you
want to do this?

Here.

Here?

You keep the drugs
in the office?

No.

But the money stays here.

Come on, man.

You are not that stupid,
Leo.

Move.

Where's Max?

Ladies room?
I don't know.

Turn around.

Turn around.

Sorry, dude.

Portland PD! On the ground!
On the ground!

-Portland PD!
-Drop the weapon!
Drop the weapon!

-Freeze!
-Get on the ground!

-Put your hands up now!
-You! Don't move!

Get on the ground!

Put your hands up!

On the ground! On the ground!
Don't move!

Where's Grey?

And the girl?

Cops. Great.

We're never gonna lose them
in this piece of

Hey!
She don't look like much,

but she got it
where it counts, kid.

Hey.

Hey, Dex, will you
do me a favor?

Hang on.

Officer #1:
Exit the vehicle immediately!

Slowly!

Put your hands
where I can see them.

Slow.

Ma'am,
this is police business.

Now, if y'all
please step aside.

Sue Lynn:
I don't think so.

It's the law, ma'am.
Not here.

You're on the rez now.

But this man is wanted.

Do you have a warrant?

We were in pursuit
well before

Regulations dictate you
contact tribal police.

Did you?

I think we'll take that
as a no.

Officer, you have
no jurisdiction here,

pursuant to any number
of self-governance treaties

I'd be more than happy
to cite.

Okie dokie.

Thank you for that.

Hey, uh, thank Dex.

I owe her.

I think we all do.

You're welcome
to pass through.

But she needs
to keep moving

before the police realize
I just lied to them.

Understood.

Wow!

Oh, my God.

So, I guess
you're good to go.

Yeah.

Hey, are you sure
about this?

'Cause I could talk
to the cop,

and, uh, maybe he can make
a deal for you.

I'd be looking at time
regardless.

You could come with me.

No, I can't.

I've been on the run
before.

There's no peace in it.

You know, you're
not gonna last long.

Tending bar.

Living a square life.

It's not for you.

So...

...whenever you do
decide to bolt,

just, um, don't
beat yourself up.

Seriously?

I give you my truck,

and that's the last thing
you want to say to me?

If you're ever in the mood
for an old movie,

you know where to find me.

See you around.

The drugs were found
stashed in the warehouse.

And, uh,
Charles "Chaz" Wyatt

he was found dumped on the side
of the road, alive.

So he's already
lawyered up.

And the hit-woman,

or the alleged hit-woman,
that Dex gave us

well, she was staying at
an Airbnb under an alias.

The phone she gave Dex was
a burner, so she's in the wind.

Nice job on this, man.

Aw, thanks, Hoffman.

As promised, you get
a cut of the street value

of the confiscated drugs
for $35,000.

35 thou

Why did you haul ass
out to the reservation?

Well, I had a gun
pointed at me, you know?

I had a chance to run
for my life, so I took it.

You know, it's like
the old saying goes

it's better to ask
for forgiveness

than, uh,
to ask for permission

to get shot and killed.

Hmm.

And Max wasn't with you?

Which one is Max again?

'Cause Crime Scene
found this note

on the warehouse floor...

"My truck. Now.
Meet you there soon."

Looks like
your handwriting, Grey.

No.

Oh! Charades.

This was from Charades from
a couple nights ago.

Max was my partner.

Perfectly good explanation.

Hope she was worth it.

I'm just kidding, man.

That'd be
