Well, guys, now that the whole Josh thing

is off the table,

we're back to square zero.

So, what? We're just...

We're supposed to go back to trial? I...

We know how that's gonna end. I can't...

We need to figure out another game plan.

Game plan? We have nothing.

Well, let's figure it out.

Hopefully, we still have a little bit of time.

I'm really sorry about all this, Murphy.

When I let Trey get away, I didn't think...

Anyway, I'm sorry.

It's fine. I mean, let's just...

Can we just think, please?

It actually isn't fine.Max...

This should've been over. Done.

But here we are.

Glad Trey's having a great day, though.

I apologized. Cool, thanks.

You guys, my deal is done

if we don't take down the Bolt operation

in the next, like, day.

So, I say we get a warrant for the club.

Get something there.

It's clean. Trey knows what he's doing.

Everything there's legit.

So, how are we gonna get him?

I know y'all want Trey

to go down, okay, and...

and he will,

but if you want to stop Bolt, for real,

I think we got to bust them both

at the same time.

Trey and this investor dude.

Why at the same time?

We can't risk them warning each other. I mean,

Trey can do this on his own,

and so can this investor.

I mean, he'll just find another Trey.

Both too smart.

I thought Trey didn't know who this guy was.

Yeah, well, I'm pretty sure he was lying.

I can get it out of him.

And then what?

I doubt there's any dirt on this guy,

whoever he is.

We-we get this investor

to sell to us,

we set up, like, a sting or something.

You think you can actually get him to sell you drugs?

Like a mountain of drugs? Because that's

what we would need.

Yeah.

Okay.

You're gonna need money, a lot of it,

and I can't get it from the department.

We'll figure it out.

Uh,

keep in mind, Sarah and myself are officers of the law.

We cannot be a party to anything illegal.

Okay. Okay, then, uh,

what if we set everything up,

and then you guys come in and do the arrests

after the deal's done?

We'll have to run it by the chief first,

but shouldn't be a problem.

We good with that?

At this point, yeah, sure.

Okay, Darnell, you go figure out who the investor is.

Max and I will figure out how to get the money.

Then we'll... wait for your call.

So, remember how you got that 200 grand to bail me out?

Wait, so you're a CI? Where did that money come from?

And everyone knew but me?

That's why you needed "space"?

That's why you sent me and Lesley away?

Oh, my God.

You know, she dragged me to frickin' Anguilla.

I'm sorry you were dragged to Anguilla, Felix.

It was horrible.

I didn't sleep at all,

I'm extremely sunburned,

and then I was alone the whole time because she met

some girl, so...

Well, where is Lesley?

She's... had to "take a nap"

when she heard you were coming, so...

Okay, well, I should probably talk to her.

I haven't really spoken to her since...

well, everything.

Do you mind?

Yeah, no. Should. Yeah?

Anyway...

Um, about the money,

I need you to go back to that family friend...

What's that on your finger?

What?

Um...

Yeah. Max-Max and I are...

are... getting married.

How's your nap?

Wonderful.

I'm really sorry

about the way everything went down.

You were...

are...

this incredible person, and...

you didn't deserve this.

It was always her, wasn't it?

Come on, just be honest with me, you owe me that.

Yeah.

I can't help it.

It was, it is, it's always gonna be.

It's my lot in life.

You could've just told me that.

Saved me some time.

Just sort of realized it.

I always knew.

On some level. I just...

I don't know.

Heard you met someone in Anguilla.

Don't.

We're not friends...

yet.

Yet?

Will you say something?

Anything?

Felix?

I mean...

I've always wanted you to be happy, Murphy, and...

...you've never looked happier, so...

Congratulations.

Thank you.

But I swear to God I will murder you if you ask me to be, like,

your maid of honor or something.

Well, anyway, I don't want to see you get married in prison,

so of course I'll help you.

Hey, Murphy.

Hi.

You guys want something to drink?

Oh, sure. Thank you.

Um...

W... With the money?

Um...

You remember Jimmy McKay?

I actually got the money from his niece.

I think she has a crush on me. - Yeah.

Well, maybe we can use that.

Hey.

Hey.

Come in.

So, now you want me to steal

even more cash from my uncle?

Yes. Please?

Look, I-I wouldn't ask you

unless it was, like, a real emergency.

What's the emergency?

Um...

I can't tell you.

What about your sister? She's rich.

Yeah, for reasons that are way too long

and boring, uh, to explain,

my sister is not gonna give one red cent

to this mission.

Mission?

Seriously...

...who are you these days?

I don't know.

I'll get you the money.

I feel a little dirty.

Oh, you're more than a little dirty.

Seriously? You're the one who was working with the cops.

Was, dude. Come on.

He's clean.Good.

You're really letting this whole thing

go to your head, you know that?

You want a drink or something?

Sure.

So, uh, Nia's people,

they're in.

They're down to work for you, man.

Are you serious?

I mean, they haven't had anything to sell in months,

and they definitely heard of Bolt.

Course they have.

Everyone has.

Pretty impressive, I got to say.

Mm.

Pretty good at my job.

And so humble.

Man, shut up.

You know, I still

can't believe you got some rich dude

to get his hands dirty in something like this.

He doesn't get his hands dirty.

That's the whole point. I've never even met the guy.

So, what, you just talk to him on the phone?

No, not even that.

He's an investor.

That's it.

Hmm.

Man's probably never even seen a Bolt pill.

But you must've

spoken to him when he found you.

Nah.

♪

I known you for too long.

I know when you're lying at me.

And I deserve to know who I'm getting into business with.

It's my ass now, too.

Man, I'm not lying.

All right?

Okay, Trey.

Then I'm out,

and I'm taking Nia's people with me.

I can just start my own thing.

Fine.

♪ ♪

Couple of months ago, I had a chemist make the pill, right?

Built a makeshift cookhouse,

sold it to a couple people I used to deal coke to,

to test it out.

One of them was this really rich politician guy,

Jimmy McKay.

He liked it so much, he told me he wanted to invest.

He's an invisible partner.

Hey, Uncle Jimmy.

Oh, hey, you going out?

Yeah, just going to see some friends.

Well, have fun, kiddo.

This guy's really powerful.

Like I said, he's richer than God.

Well...

I found out who the guy is.

Who is it?

Wait, you guys actually got the money?

Yeah. I'm basically a prostitute now.

What? Who is it?

It's this dude, uh,

Jimmy McKay. Apparently, he's this rich poli...

Whoa, whoa, whoa, I'm sorry, did you say Jimmy McKay?

Yeah.

You know who he is?

Yeah, since I was, like, two.

And, ironically, the guy who owns this money.

Oh.

Sorry, I-I-I'm having trouble wrapping my head

around the fact that Jimmy McKay

is tied into the drug world.

He's not.

Apparently, he doesn't even know anyone besides Trey.

Trey just used to sell him coke,

and Jimmy thought Bolt was an easy way to make money.

Are we really gonna try to buy drugs off this guy

with his own stolen money?

No, because I'm telling you

Jimmy McKay's not gonna get involved in a drug deal.

He's like the most powerful guy in Chicago.

It's just... He's not.

Well, we'll have to put him into

a position where he's forced to.

How? Are you listening?

The guy is squeaky clean.

At least on paper.

Yeah, Trey says he stays far away.

Wants no part of it.

Then let's use that.

Meaning what?

Meaning, he doesn't want to get his hands dirty,

then let's get his hands dirty.

That's not a terrible idea.

You know, Trey says he's taking a pretty big cut.

I think I can work with that.

I know how to manipulate Trey.

How much of a cut did you say that Jimmy guy's getting again?

20%.

Told you it was steep.

Steep? Bruh, this is how much

you're giving him every month.

It's obscene.

You said yourself he's richer than God.

And you're the one who set up this entire system,

the labs, the laundering, all of it.

And this guy, who had nothing to do with any of it,

and already has all the money in the world, is taking 20%?

Come on.

Yeah...

But, I mean...

I didn't have anything when we started.

I needed his help to get things moving.

Look around, bruh.

It's moving.

Look,

he just took advantage of you.

He needs you, not the other way around.

Tell him, I don't know, five percent

or you walk.

I don't think he'll go for it.

So what?

His loss.

You can run this on your own now.

Hello? Hey.

It's Trey Williams. Listen,

20% isn't gonna work for me anymore.

From now on, you take five.

Five? Five.

The answer is no.

Then I walk.

Come on, man.

We're making so much money.

Don't mess up a good thing.

My mind's made up.

Well, then, you pay me back my investment.

Fine.

Great, now I've got to give this guy back 500 grand.

You don't need to give him a dollar.

Let's mess with him a little bit.

You know I got you.

Okay.

Hello, Mr. McKay. I left your messages on the desk.

Mm-hmm.

And, uh, this package just came for you.

Thank you, Berta.

thought about that before trying

Not really my problem.

Flush them.

I am not gonna flush all this money down the toilet.

I don't really care what you do, man. I got to go.

Wait. Good luck.

Hello?

Hey.

How did it go?

It's done.

Now we got to get that dude to sell the stuff to us.

Yeah.

Okay, we just got to get him alone, right?

We got to figure out how to get access to his schedule

or something. Well, I almost worked for the guy,

maybe I can get that job back.

Okay. Yeah.

How-how-how would you do that?

I'll call Felix. Okay.

See if his grandma can call him for us.

Okay, I'm on it. Call you right back.

Come on, you need to call Gran.

She likes you more.

Don't even look at me.

I'm not helping you guys with this idiotic plan.

You'll never outsmart Jimmy.

Well, we can at least try.

Have fun with that.

Les.

You're asking me to help the person

that Max just cheated on me with.

I'm not a robot, it's gonna take me a minute

to get over it.

Look, I know it's complicated

for a myriad of reasons, but...

you said it yourself, I mean,

someone should not go to jail for something they didn't do.

And that's exactly what's gonna happen to Murphy

if we don't pull this off.

Just... please.

Whatever.

How is everything, Ms. Bell?

Wonderful, thank you.

Actually, the chicken is a bit dry.

I'm so sorry. Would you like something else, ma'am?

No, I'll stomach it.

Thank you.

So, Gran, uh...

We have... Actually have something

we need to talk to you about.

Oh, always an angle with you, Felix.

Lesley?

Oh, good, an ambush.

Oh, no, it's just, um...

You remember Max Parish?

He was supposed to work with Jimmy McKay and, um...

Never showed up. Right. Yes.

Anyway, he would love a second chance to...

A second chance?

I don't think so.

Gran, please. Uh...

You two only call me when you want something.

I thought you actually wanted to have lunch.

We do.

But if you could just call Jimmy and ask him to...

I'm not doing

anything for you two ungrateful kids.

I've done enough.

Actually, you will be doing this

particular thing for us.

Is that so?

We're working with the cops to take down Jimmy McKay.

Felix. And we know that when they dig deep enough,

your name will come up.

You have some shady real estate dealings with him, I believe?

It is not my job

to ask questions, it is my job

to protect my family's fortune.

That's not gonna hold up in court.

We can get you protection if you help us though.

So you're blackmailing me?

Oh, we learn from the best.

It's Mavis Bell.

Good. And you?

Excited to have you on board.

I'm excited, too, sir.

I have access to everything.

Calendar, contacts, everything.

Wow. Okay.

Um, where's he gonna be tonight?

Well, after this dinner, he has drinks at The Valderoy,

which is a bar downtown.

And guess who else will be having drinks there, too.

Okay.

Okay, all right, Murph?

Are you sure you can do this?

Don't worry, I'm just gonna flirt with him a little bit.

His penis will not go near me.

Felix, you know what your job is, yeah?

Easy peasy... get Caitlin out of the house somehow,

and then get my grandma

to invite Jimmy's wife to the lake house.

Yes. And all I have to do

is get him to take me to his place.

Pretend to take this Bolt pill.

Then convince him to sell his stash to us.

Uh, do you need some help?

Oh!

Uh, no, I'm great, I'm good. Thank you.

If you could just grab the bartender for me,

that would be great.

Yeah.

How about I grab a drink for you instead?

Even better.

Mm-hmm.

we could go to my place.
