Travis, we need to stay fit.
We're soft in the midsection, we're not gonna catch criminals.
We're eating sushi tonight. I hate sushi.
Look, you chose yesterday, man. I did not choose yesterday.
Yeah, we ate at Lettuce Kingdom.
I hate Lettuce Kingdom.
So do I!
So why did we eat there?
'Cause you're not happy
unless both of us are miserable.
Do you want to talk about this?
No. No. I do not.
I'm pretty sure we ought to talk about it.
All right, so we finally agreed to eat lunch at Fat Zack's.
Oh, I love that place!
Me, too. The problem is
the guys on the truck, they hate Wes.
How did the fight start?
It was an accident.
He did it on purpose.
Oh, wow.
It's your fault. It's your fault.
Not my fault.
Do you ever just come right out
and advise couples
to split up?
(slight accent): It is such an honor
to have you here.
Sir, when the hostess told me
the Mayor of Beverly Hills coming himself,
I personally asked to park your car.
That's great. Just be careful of the paint job, comrade.
You got it, sir.
(engines revving, tires screeching)
Don't kill me! Don't kill me! Take the car!
Please don't shoot!
Don't do anything stupid and no one gets hurt!
Except you, dickhead!
(tires screeching)
Common Law 1x04 Ex-Factor Original Air Date on June 8, 2012
It's called The Emperor Cleanse.
Senior partner at my law firm used to do it before big cases.
You combine kale, broccoli, spinach, carrots...
Wait, that's all you eat?
Yeah, for five days, yeah.
So it's like a hunger strike.
No, it's a cleanse.
See, I will be leaner, stronger, and faster.
You'll be a few days closer to a heart attack.
What the..?
(chuckling): Oh! Oh, Travis Marks.
What's happening, brother?
Hey, Phil.
Wow. Been a long time.
Well, it's five years, man. Can you believe that?
Wes man!
You still rockin' that GQ style, dude.
Phil, you're still talking like... that.
(laughing): Always with the charm, man.
You're looking good, dude. RHD suits you.
Thanks, man, you too.
Uh, last I heard, you were with the Beverly Hills PD, right?
So what are you doing here?
What, I can't stop by and see my old partner?
Come on, man! I-m-I'm-I'm kidding you.
No, our mayor got carjacked last night on your turf.
MO matches four we've seen so far in the 90210.
Still call it the 90210.
Hells, yeah, they all do.
They're putting together a joint task force.
The bosses are still working out the deets.
This is my, uh, wingman, Morgan Watkins.
The Ice Man.
Oh.
That's great, you took the nickname from Top Gun
and then you just kept it the same.
Fantastic, man. You haven't changed.
No, Morgan-Morgan here
used to play defensive back at USC,
and he's got uh, an MBA.
Hey, uh...
Heard a lot about you fellas.
Listen, I think it's great
you're working things out in couples counseling.
SUTTON: Hey, amigos! Five minutes.
Conference room. Bring a pencil and a positive attitude.
I see Drill Sergeant Sutton's coppin' a new attitude, man.
Very chill. I love it.
Hey, you're looking great, man. It's good to see you.
Yeah, yeah, you too, man. Good luck on the task force.
On it? Dude, I'm running it! I'm a lieutenant!
Oh! Lieutenant, huh?
Hells yeah. I'm killin' it at BHPD.
See you there in five.
I can't believe he still says "Hells yeah" all the time.
Who does that?
Maybe you can't believe he made lieutenant.
I mean, Phil? Can you?
Maybe his new partner's not holding him back.
MORGAN: We believe these five carjackings
are the work of one crew.
Now, our own mayor sustained a... groin injury
during the most recent robbery,
so this is top priority.
Phil?
Thanks, Ice.
All five men are connected
to a valet company called Regal Pacific.
They all worked all the events where cars were stolen.
All five suspects have criminal backgrounds...
You know what's weird about this?
Yeah, Phil's teeth.
It's like he had them whitened or capped or something.
No, these cars,
they're very high-end automobiles.
They're equipped with Lojack, GPS,
tracking systems,
but someone's stealing them; they're just disappearing?
It's hard to believe you can just jack
a Ferrari and drop off the grid.
These robberies are happening all over town.
You'd have to rent out, like, five different garages.
Unless you brought the garage with you.
No, no, no, no.
Phil doesn't like to be upstaged.
He wants the case solved, doesn't he?
Detective Kronish?
Wes-man Mitchell,
what's on your brain, broseph?
I was curious if you
had a description of this truck?
Uh, sorry?
What truck?
The truck.
The truck that obviously
they're loading these cars onto.
It's the only way thieves can both get cars off the streets,
and disable those tracking systems at the same time.
You know, the truck?
Pretty good theory, Phil.
Are these two men on the detail for the task force?
Uh, I was planning on using Decker and Kaplan, so...
I suggest you change that plan.
That's a great idea, Captain Hersh.
Uh, Mitchell and Marks
are a great asset to any investigation.
Will do.
Will do...
What the hell did you do that for?
What? Help with the case?
That's our job, isn't it?
You know I don't want to work with Phil Kronish.
As I'm sure you remember, things did not end well between us.
Travis... Wow, how awkward
was that for you on a scale of one to ten?
It's not like that; it wasn't awkward.
Oh, come on, that's like going to your high school reunion
and seeing your ex and finding out
she's all big and successful and has a hot new girlfriend.
You're right, that would be incredibly awkward.
Yeah, I bet you really regret it now.
Breaking up with Phil for Wes?
I remember the headlines.
The gentleman caller serial killer case
is what put you both in robbery-homicide.
And I bet it still stings for Phil. Oh, no way,
that was years ago; there's no way Phil's still mad.
No, he's absolutely still mad,
and I cannot believe you're actually going to drink that.
So, who smells the elephant poop?
It's not that bad.
Man, I'm talking about the elephant in the room.
You guys need to lighten up.
Obviously, there was some fireworks
last time we saw each other
Just want to say it's all good.
I couldn't be more psyched that you guys are working for me.
We psyched, too.
Yeah, yeah, we'd be happy to run that truck for you if you want.
The Emperor Cleanse, man. Morgan and I, we powered through that.
You're gonna feel like a freaking superhero
in a couple days; anyway,
the truck, you guys can hit that in a little while.
We've got the owner of that valet company coming in.
You're gonna want to stick around
and watch Morgan and I shake his tree.
We got a... we got a sick routine
all worked out. Uh...
MORGAN: Got some real hard cases working for you.
What, do you hire them right outside the prison gates?
Come on, Hoss, what's the deal-io with your employees?
Give Papa Bear the 411.
My valet company's legit, man.
Did you notice how he said
he's psyched to have us working for him?
Not with him. For him.
He's the head of a task force, Travis; we do work for him.
What's your deal? Why can't you just be happy
your old partner's doing well? I'm surprised, okay?
All of this Morgan and I this, Morgan and I that.
He knows you and I don't get along, man.
He's just trying to rub it in my face.
Okay, so?
So, as long as we have to work with him,
can we just try and get along for the next few days?
So you can look good in front of Phil? Freaky Phil?
Wes, I just don't want
to air all of our dirty laundry in front of him, all right?
Anyway, they're wasting their time with these valets.
They should be looking into the truck.
You want to look good in front of Phil,
solve the case.
Exactly how we got in trouble last time.
PHIL: That's gold.
WES: How you doing?
Hey, hey.
T-Bone!
Money!
You should have told me you were coming.
(laughter)
I don't know anything about any truck.
Even if I did, you're asking me to rat out a colleague.
That's against the code.
Code? I thought there was no honor among thieves, Money.
Whoa, whoa, we ain't thieves.
We just don't ask our customers a lot of questions.
All right,
so someone called you,
asked you to rig up a truck like that,
What kind of equipment would you need?
Uh, you need some hydraulic lifts
to be able to support the weight of the stolen cars,
some jamming gear to scramble GPS.
Big job, nice payday, actually.
If we found whoever bought those parts,
we got the guy who built that truck.
Could you write those items down on a list?
You're a cop.
That violates the code.
Can you write them down for your brother?
No problem, brah.
Thanks.
KENDALL: You want me to find out who bought all these parts?
Yeah.
Okay, that'll take a little digging.
So, how is it working with your old partner?
You heard about that?
Mm-hmm.
Everyone's saying that your old partner is new partner's hot.
What? Morgan?
Yeah, they're calling him, um...
Mm, you know what, never mind.
No, no, what-what are they calling him?
Travis 2.0.
Hmm.
2.0?
Yeah, you know, like, the new version,
the updated model.
So, so, so, like, better?
Well, 2.0 usually implies an upgrade.
Shinier. Yeah?
Got it. More powerful.
More refined, better.
Can we get back to the case?
All right, now, four of the carjackings
occurred in Beverly Hills.
They practically have cameras mounted
on every light in town.
So, I'm betting that truck shows up on camera
somewhere near each of the robberies.
Any one in particular? The first one
was on Little Santa Monica.
Okay, so here are the side streets
around each of the four robberies,
It's always there.
Look at that.
You can almost see the driver's face
on that one.
I can blow it up.
Thank you.
Okay, so a white guy.
He looks like he's in his 20s.
Yeah, we could do a composite sketch off that.
Yo, where'd you guys disappear to?
We've banging on the owner
of that valet company all day.
Hey, we've been working on the truck.
We, uh, you know,
we think, uh, we might have a picture of the driver right..
right there.
Oh, yeah, the truck thing, yeah, that's cool.
It's also priority number two.
We've got the owner to cooperate.
His company's working a party in the 90210,
and he's gonna let us run a sting tonight.
A sting?
That's a good idea.
It was Morgan's idea, man.
Yeah, we're...
(clears throat)
You need something, man?
Oh, no, I was just...
How tall are you? About five-eleven?
Six foot?
Six-four. Mmm.
Wouldn't have guessed that.
See-seem to carry yourself smaller.
Uh...
(clears throat) We're gonna use
a bait car to lure the carjacker out.
Yeah, I want both of you guys right in the thick of it.
You still think Phil's not holding a grudge?
It's a sting, Travis.
They need cops in the bait car to catch thieves.
(phone rings) I know, I know, but it's no accident
he's got us standing out here in these clown suits, man.
It's Kendall.
Kendall?
I got it. What's up?
Take care of it, buddy.
No tip.
(whispering) Travis. What?
We got a hit on that APB we put on the white truck.
One was spotted near Wilcox and Fountain.
There is a restaurant opening up near there.
Let's go.
That's not the way to the parking area.
Travis, where the hell are you going?
(dialing)
Get back here with our car.
(tires squealing)
Get out of the car. (grunts)
LAPD! Don't move.
(gunshots)
Get in the car.
Let's go.
Come on, let's get out of here.
Damn. You all right?
MAN: No, no, we're okay. Anybody hurt?
All units within two miles
of Wilcox and Fountain, I need you to be on the lookout
for two black SUVs and a white truck now.
DISPATCH: Copy that. (Sugar Ray's "Fly" plays)
(sighs) That's Phil.
Ignore that. You okay?
Yeah, you? Yeah.
("Fly" plays)
(groans)
(sirens approaching) You do realize
were gonna have to talk to him, right?
Phil's gonna be so pissed.
I wouldn't be surprised if he tries to get us suspended.
He won't suspend us.
It's not that bad.
I worked with this man for three years.
Trust me, you're about to see the real Phil Kronish.
(sighs)
PHIL: Where are we at? Well, we had
a shootout in the middle of Hollywood.
We have to...
I just...
Bring your hand to Daddy, bro.
Come on, don't leave me hanging.
That's it.
Okay, so y-you're not mad
that we got your car all shot up? Travis,
bud, it ain't my car; that's what repair shots are for.
Come on, dude, hey, we were in the wrong place.
It's time to put that valet theory on the back burner
and, you know, chase after this truck thing.
You guys got us closer to the bad guys.
We're a team.
It's all love, right? Come on, boom, boom.
Oh! Yow!
That's what I'm talking about.
It's very intricate.
You guys don't have a touchdown dance?
No, no, we do. No, we don't.
I am not... whatever that is, not gonna do that.
Ah, it's cool; we know you guys are still working stuff out.
You know what I... you know what I want
you guys to do.
I want you guys to, uh,
go over everything we've done so far.
Just get buried in that case file.
And tell me if there's anything BHPD has that'll tie us
to that, uh, that truck thing.
We'll bring in these guys together.
Sounds fair.
You sure you're cool?
Hey, I'll high five you again if you want me to.
No, I'm good. No.
You're the best.
You heard what just happened, didn't you?
He wants us buried in the case files.
That's just code.
He just put us on administrative detail.
Travis, he said review the file.
Why are you clinging so hard
to the idea that Phil's trying to screw you?
(sighs)
When I see my ex, all I can think about
is the alimony check I have to write here very month
and then I hate her.
I don't hate Phil.
Phil hates me.
RYAN: What makes you think that? Because.
You cheated on him.
And then
you dumped him.
And you were the other woman.
Hey, no, this is not my problem.
Travis is the one that's jealous of his ex.
I'm not jealous of Phil, I just feel like he's out to get me.
Well, sometimes when we think people hate us, it's actually
because we feel guilty about something we've done to them.
Is it possible that you feel guilty
for going behind Phil's back?
Seriously? You feel guilty?
Travis, we put a serial murderer in jail.
How would it be if you called Phil?
Went out for coffee?
Sat down and talked about it? Cleared the air?
Maybe even apologize?
Apologize?
Nah, we don't have that kind of relationship.
I know it can be very hard to make yourself vulnerable,
but it's usually worth it.
("Fly" plays)
That's Phil.
Shut up.
We were just talking about him and then he calls?
This is totally like The Secret.
Answer it.
(beeps)
Hello?
Hey, man.
Really?
Um, great.
Yeah, sure.
Okay.
Bye.
(beeps)
You want to share with the group why Phil called?
He asked if I would
grab dinner with him.
You know, I asked you here tonight because I, uh,
wanted to say I'm sorry.
You're sorry?
For what?
I-I was super pissed at you.
And it seems like you've been walking on eggshells
since we've hooked back up, and that's not right.
Look, Phil, I feel pretty bad about what happened, too.
No, no, no, no, it's okay, man.
I'm good with-with it all.
Things happen the way they're supposed to.
You know, I needed to burn out of LAPD
so I could land in a better spot.
(chuckles)
Well, you do seem happier.
Oh, man, this is...
I mean, this is the job I was meant to do, and Morgan,
he's like my brother from another mother, you know?
What?
That's not offensive, right?
Okay, no, Morgan and I, you know,
we're set for life on the partner front.
You know, I should be thanking you, dude.
Hey.
Boom.
You are gonna dig that.
Just wait.
Sugar Ray.
That's right.
Wow, this...
They're still doing it, huh?
If by still doing it, you mean kicking ass,
then hells yeah.
I burned that for you, dude.
Yeah, man, you remember how we used to crank those guys up
on stakeout? Ba-ba-bom...
Yes, yes I sure do.
Wow, thanks, you know...
That's, uh, thoughtful.
Hey, hey, once and for all, friends?
Boom.
Yeah, but baby steps, you know?
Baby steps, I can dig that. Awesome.
Oh, that works.
It really does.
Oh, yeah, it's good.
It's good they had dinner last night.
Yeah, I guess so.
Listen, I like the way you carry yourself.
You seem like a real grown-up with a lot of potential,
but you need to get rid of Travis.
He's like an anchor.
He just weighs his partners down.
I mean, once Phil cut him loose...
Phil's gone nowhere but up.
Hmm.
It's just a little professional advice.
Travis does drive me nuts sometimes.
I mean, there are some times I just wish I could
take him where they wouldn't find his body.
You know what I mean?
(laughs)
(chuckles)
But that's my partner.
Only I'm allowed to talk about him like that.
You don't know him, what he's done,
or what he's capable of doing,
so you should just shut the hell up.
That's some professional advice.
(laughs)
It's your career.
Hey, what did Iceman want, Maverick?
Oh, he was just checking in.
How did the apology go?
Did he forgive you?
Did you cry?
Dude, it wasn't like that.
Phil apologized to me.
He did?
Hmm.
Maybe he really is a different guy now.
Hmm, so I was right-- he's not even mad.
N-N-No, but he was mad.
He admitted it.
We've run this against every database we've got.
Not one single match.
This guy is just not in the system.
You surprised? These guys are good.
Why are you eating that in front of me?
I'm on a cleanse.
You see I'm cleansing, right?
'Cause it's good.
How's that coming along, anyway?
You feel, like, superpowers coming up?
I feel a powerful hunger.
Look, Mayor Barnes
is looking for an update on the case,
and Phil suggested you two.
Phil passed on an opportunity to suck up to the mayor?
Just saying.
I told you, it's like,
it's like this guy's not even mad anymore, man.
You want a bite?
Hmm?
I'm on a cleanse.
It's delicious.
(winces)
You sliced it again, Jeremy.
Golf sucks.
Golf is your ticket into the business world.
Go find Jeremy's ball.
Yes, sir. Cameron, show him how it's done.
Dad, you're an asshole.
Sorry to interrupt your family moment.
Who are you?
LAPD, sir, Wesley Mitchell.
This is Detective Travis Marks.
You asked
for an update on that carjacking ring.
Your secretary said we could find you here.
Right, right,
so why the hell haven't you caught these guys yet?
Well, we're still following a lead.
Nice.
(chuckling): That's my boy.
We believe the, uh, thieves are using
a white custom- rigged truck
to drive the cars away from the robberies.
A white truck?
I saw a white truck.
Why didn't my detectives ask me that?
'Cause they're both... It's a new theory, sir.
Uh, where did you see the truck?
I was taking a shortcut through an alley
on my way to the benefit.
The truck was idling there, blocking my way, so I leaned
on the horn.
The driver gave me the finger out the window.
Hmm. Huh.
Did you happen to see his face?
No.
Look, I got to go, but keep me posted.
I want to nail those bastards.
Nobody kicks me in the balls and gets away with it.
Jeremy, get out of the cart.
(sighs)
Did you just cover for Phil?
(phone ringing) We're good now, remember?
It's all in the past.
Yeah. Mitchell.
MORGAN: Mitchell.
It's Morgan.
I got your cellie from the girl in the computer lab.
What is it, uh...
Krystal? Yeah, Kendall.
Ah, that's the one.
You asked her to run down the name of a business
that bought all the parts to outfit that truck, right?
Yeah.
She just found it.
Excellent.
I'm gonna text you the address.
It's out in Palmdale.
Listen,
I feel bad about what happened between us earlier.
I talked to Phil, and we decided that you and Travis should get
to be the ones who run down the lead.
We appreciate that, Morgan, that's big of you.
Bring it home, brother.
Guess what.
Morgan just gave us the address
for the place that built our truck.
Know what I think?
Well, this is the address.
Does this look like the base of operations
for a high-end carjacking ring to you?
No, this looks like a place you hide out
and write a manifesto against the government.
There is a truck.
There's nothing painted on the side of the trucks
in the surveillance videos. No, there is not.
Maybe they cover it up or something
when they take it out for a job.
Well, let's take a look.
Morgan set us up.
You think?
(chicken clucking)
Oh, no, it was easy.
Mayor will be really happy to hear this.
Nice job, Lieutenant.
PHIL: It was a piece of cake.
MAN: Good job, guys.
(low, indistinct conversation)
MAN 2: Nice work, L.T.
PHIL: Please.
I don't get it.
Morgan said you gave him
the address to "Which Came First?"
I gave Morgan an address but not to a chicken truck.
I gave him the name of a business called Porch Dog Auto--
that's the name of the place
that bought all the truck parts--
and they arrested Wade Falk, the owner of the place.
They stole our lead.
Hells, yeah, they did.
Why did you give them our lead?
They outrank you guys.
The good-looking one told me to call him...
He's not that good-looking.
Ooh, smells like chicken over here.
(clucking)
(laughs)
You were right, they set us up.
No, I was wrong.
Phil's still mad.
TRAVIS: Well,
I opened up to Phil just like you said.
Worked out great.
Yeah, he completely boned me.
Oh, uh,
Wes, you said you thought
that Phil had perhaps genuinely changed.
Do you agree with Travis' assessment?
Oh, he boned us, all right.
I see, and how do you plan to respond?
TRAVIS: Bone him back.
Obviously. Twice as hard.
WES: You see, they think they got this case solved,
but they spent four hours interrogating
their suspect yesterday.
They didn't come up with anything.
Tomorrow we're gonna beat 'em to the punch.
Mm-hmm. Well, it's nice
to see you both presenting
a united front for a change.
But, uh, let me just ask: so a criminal is in custody,
am I right?
So how important is it
who actually makes the arrest?
In a cosmic sense,
not really, but they ran a game on us.
There's no way they're gonna get the last laugh.
But is it possible
that you're so determined to bone back because you're hurt,
because you offered your trust
to this man and he abused it?
It happened.
We got to respond, right?
Am I right, fellas?
(men murmuring in assent)
Well, you could choose to respond,
but that, it seems to me,
would just perpetuate the cycle of ill will,
or you could simply refuse to play the game.
Choose to be the bigger men.
Absolutely not. We choose to be the winning men.
I am way too hungry to be mature
about something like this.
(sighs)
Captain, you want to see us?
Yeah, come on in, have a seat.
Either of you two gentlemen meditate?
Uh...
I like to take five minutes each day
and just get some pure concentration going, you know.
Kind of cleans out the cobwebs,
and, uh, usually
my mind has to be free of conflict.
That's not happening today.
You pulled the Chicken Coop on my guys.
Phil, seriously?
Oh, Travis and Wes have been one up on me for a long time.
Now we're square.
Don't get righteous with me.
Before you were into all this Zen crap,
you used to know how to play dirty, you know.
Still do.
I was the best there was.
That little stunt you pulled on my guys yesterday--
Herlihy and I invented it, but here's the trick.
You guys blew your shot.
You had a half a day in the box with this Wade Falk.
Couldn't produce one name associated
with the carjacking ring.
MORGAN: That was just our first crack at him. We're holding Falk
for running a chop shop. As soon as he gets over here
from City Jail, we got all day to wear him down.
Do you?
My guys would have had him talking in ten minutes.
You know, you know, first of all,
nobody's better at leaning on a perp
than me and the Iceman,
and your guys won't get ten seconds with him.
Wade Falk is our collar.
Is he?
All right.
Here's a question for you.
When you guys were pulling this little scam
on Wes and Travis,
did you ever file the paperwork
releasing them from the task force?
(scoffs) W-We did-- you did that, right?
I was just about to put it in.
What are you thinking?
You didn't do it?
What are you thinking, man?
(arguing indistinctly)
I told you to do it.
(chuckles) Better luck next time, guys.
My guys are having their window with Mr. Falk right now.
Now get out.
Get out.
Yeah.
WADE: Man, what the hell is going on, man?
Yesterday two uniforms drove me
from the police station to the lockup.
How come I rate two detectives this morning, huh?
We just want you to catch up with an old friend.
Wade. What up, baller?
Heard you got yourself in some trouble.
I don't know how you run your show, Money,
but I don't make a habit out of talking to bitch-ass cops.
No offense.
Of course. Of course not.
You're O.G.
Mm-hmm. You stand tall.
But these two will be straight with you.
The brother?
He's my brother. Hmm.
The white dude-- tight ass... (laughs)
...but he's all right, too.
You're up on charges.
You talk to us about the truck,
we see what we can do about making them away.
Yeah, I built that truck.
It was a big order.
It was basically a chop shop on wheels.
WES: Okay.
Who'd you build it for?
I don't know. It was an anonymous transaction.
It's a service I provide for clients
who prize discretion.
Guy got in touch with me
through e-mails and disposable cell phones.
You had to have met this guy when you dropped that truck off.
I drove the truck where he told me to, Go on.
then walked 100 yards
away while two dudes checked it out.
One of them left the money behind,
then drove off in the truck.
Okay, what about the car they used to get there?
Mm, I saw that.
It was a Mercedes.
Midnight Blue LE-7.
2010 model.
And it had one of those funny "E's" on the plate.
Funny "E?" Yeah.
Did it look like...?
Did it look like this?
Yeah, that's it.
What does that mean?
Like, handicapped or something?
(sighs) Something like that, yeah.
The "e" stands for "exempt,"
so we know this is a government car.
Yeah, but L.A.'s practically broke. So is the whole state.
No way they foot the bill for a brand-new Mercedes.
The money's got to come
from someplace that has a lot of money to throw around.
Yeah.
Someplace like Beverly Hills.
Good place to start.
Oh, listen, look, I know
I shouldn't have trusted those BHPD guys.
I mean, Morgan is cute, but the other one, the dorky one,
Phil-- he has a manicure.
I should have known better.
Yes, yes. You noticed the teeth, too, right?
Mm, yeah.
Yeah? (muttering)
Yeah. Huh.
So, the city of Beverly Hills
has exactly one Midnight Blue Mercedes LE-7
in its fleet, and it is registered
to.... a name you might recognize.
Richard Barnes.
The mayor. SUTTON: You're not serious
when you tell me that the mayor of that town
is the head of a carjacking ring.
It sounds crazy to us, too.
Just because the car is registered to Barnes doesn't
mean that he's always the one driving it. Travis,
just please stop eating that in front of me.
Honestly, I think I'm dying.
I'm starving to death.
SUTTON: Hang in there.
You won't even be hungry
in another couple of days.
(beep)
Wait, wait. I think I know who's driving that Mercedes.
Where's that composite sketch?
Oh, sorry. You had it last. Where is it?
All right, hold on. I got it. Ah, under your food.
(beep)
That's the mayor's son.
Hello, Jeremy Barnes.
Look, the mayor's son finally found something
he was good that also pissed off his dad-- carjacking.
In fact, I'll bet he knew about all those events
because of his dad. TRAVIS: The mayor does get invited
to every big event in the 90210.
(sighs) Time to lay a trap.
TRAVIS: All we need
is access to his social calendar.
I can help you with that.
What are you gonna do, Cap?
You gonna walk up to the mayor and ask him
if he's got any interesting events this week?
Richard Barnes is ably assisted
by a lovely woman named Ivy
who's into numerology.
Never mind. I'll-I'll get you the info in a minute.
TRAVIS: We're gonna need
a pretty sweet ride to lure, uh, Jeremy
and his pals to come after us.
Uh-huh.
You okay?
I don't think I'm gonna make it.
Can't let you guys just take this car.
Just got out of the shop.
Plus, you guys don't even work for BHPD.
Oh, we're on a joint task force.
Under orders from Phil Kronish.
He told us we could requisition this car
for an important operation. You know Phil, right?
Yeah, sure. The "Hells, yeah" guy.
Yeah, that's his signature right there. Listen,
I can get him on the phone, but Phil's gonna be pissed
if you delay this op... Oh, he would go ballistic.
Yeah, I mean, just be quick about it, you know what I mean?
'Cause he likes to fire people that waste his time.
Remember that time with Deets? Oh, that was terrible.
That was ugly. What happened to that guy?
I guess if he signed the forms...
Smart man. Trust me, Phil Kronish--
he knows how to hold a grudge.
Boy, does he. You know?
Oh.
So, while Phil and Morgan are busy
beating their heads against the wall at RHD,
we'll be stealing their car to bust a carjacking operation.
As far as, uh, checkmates go,
I think that's a pretty beautiful thing.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah? Yeah.
What?
Nothing. I'm just-just wondering
how this is gonna play out for Phil at BHPD.
Not well. Also, not our problem.
Yeah, I know, I know. It's just that we did kind of trash
his career at LAPD back in the day.
Phil trashed his own career, Travis.
And what is happening right now?
Why are you being weird?
Listen, we got him on the ropes. We won.
Do we really need to make him a pariah at another department?
Dr. Ryan is in your head.
Kind of. Oh!
Well, yeah, she's in my head,
now, too.
Come on, we got a bust to make.
Bait car's here. Everybody in position?
MAN (over radio): All units, ready to roll.
Okay, it's go time.
Take care of my baby.
Yes, sir.
(engine revving)
(tires screeching)
Get out of the car!
Hey, don't shoot, man!
(click)
This guy's a cop!
Oh, so you do remember me.
(grunting)
Get down! Stay down! Get on the ground!
(siren blaring)
LAPD! (tires squealing)
Drop your weapon now!
Get down, down, down!
Turn over!
We good? Yeah, we're good.
Where the hell are they?
(sirens blaring)
(engine starting)
(sirens blaring)
(tires screech)
All right, Beverly Hills Police Department.
Step out of the vehicle.
Put your hands in the air.
(garbled radio transmission)
Jeremy Barnes, you're under arrest.
PHIL: Ooh, ooh, ooh, Jeremy, Daddy's gonna be unhappy with you, dude.
Hell, yeah, we got him.
(garbled radio transmission)
PHIL: Everybody's calling us heroes.
Morgan got a promotion. I don't get it.
We played you guys dirty, and you still beat us.
Why'd you cut us in on the bust?
Listen, I started this thing five years ago.
I figured, I should end it.
You should have listened to me about the missing girls, Phil.
Yeah.
And I shouldn't have told the whole world
that you didn't, so...
Look, you were my partner, and you deserved better.
Thanks.
Old times.
Yeah, all right.
BOTH: Boom, boom, whoosh, pow.
Yeah. Yeah.
Later. Yeah.
Those two are made for each other.
Yeah, I have to admit...
you handled that like a grownup.
I'm mildly impressed.
Yeah, wish I felt better about it, you know.
I mean, Phil says he's grateful,
but the guy stayed pissed at me for five years.
Yeah. Our paths are gonna cross again.
How do I know the whole thing doesn't just
start up all over again? You know what I mean?
You don't.
But if it does, I have a card we can play.
I looked into the records at USC.
No one named Morgan Watkins
ever played football there.
He lied on his resume.
Travis two point oh my ass.
Pretty good one.
You play for keeps, man.
Remind me never to piss you off.
You do piss me off, like, every day, but... Okay.
Yeah, but I mean, like, you know, really piss you off.
You really do piss me off every day, Travis.
Okay.
(sighs)
Listen, man, I've been thinking you know, partners--
we got to have each other's backs,
and if it means that much to you,
I'll-I'll...
I'll do the cleanse thing. Are...?
I'm done with the cleanse.
You didn't even last that long.
I lasted longer than you would have lasted.
(scoffs) I put my mind to something, I get it done.
