"No, Klein was hopped up on painkillers." "They say he's going to do some serious time, so..." "Yeah, that sucks, man." "Yo, should I not be drinking this?" "This job, you're definitely going to need some drinks, my man." "The key is knowing how to limit yourself."

"And no, I'm better than throwing another clown party." " Throwing a party, though?" " Yeah." "Yeah." "It's Jakes' birthday on Saturday." "Last year, we threw him a surprise party." "Freaking awesome." "So we're going to do it again." " That's great, man." " Yeah." " He hated it." " Yeah, like Dodgers-Giants hate." "Oh." "Usually, Charlie spearheads this kind of thing..."

"Let's roll." "Hi." "Thought you weren't supposed to be out for a few more days." "I checked myself out, against medical advice." "You shouldn't be here." "You should be in bed." "Yeah."

" Looks like it's just me and you." " Hey, Johnny, did she say anything to you?" "About what?" " Are you..." " No." "You dirty little dog." "No." "Never mind." " Hey, where's Briggs?"

"Hey, Jakes." "For real, come here, son." "We never just sit and talk anymore, bro." "Remember back in the day?" "We used to just hang out and talk and..." "You used to let me braid your hair?" "You ordered without me?" "Oh!" "(LAUGHS)" "It's just like the FBI to keep your Mexican counterparts waiting." "Yeah, well, we like to give you fellas a little space to take bribes and plant evidence." "I planted evidence in the kitchen." "They undercook their steak." "Anything on the Jangles front?" "I have nothing new." "Yet he continues to be elusive prey." "Well, everybody's looking for him, they just don't know who to look for." "How long you been chasing him?" "Longer than I care to admit." "Well, I don't want to sound like a dick, but you got nothing on him?" "And what about your man, Odin?" "Then we share the same frustration." "Listen, Bello's not talking unless we give him his walking papers." "Does he know Caza will kill him inside?" "He knows, and he doesn't care." "We got no leverage on him." "Everyone has a weakness." "Something they care about that's above them." "Someone, perhaps." "There's always a way to break a man." "Hey." "Hey, man." "How's the surf today?" "No waves today." "Just floating." "It's good to see you back, Mikey." "Anything good on?" "No, I'm just sitting here trying not to bleed on the couch." "Want to see?" "Yeah." "Ah, man." "How many stitches?" "11." "Well, don't quote me on this, but I think that's a new house record." "Yes." "Count each one of those sutures as a badge of honor, okay?" "Except the guy that did it is still out there." "If we were meant to get Jangles, we'd have got him." "You're good with that?" "Oh, we can push and pull and stamp our feet, but the universe does have a will unto itself."

" No beans." " That was before." "Now Mike the Marine's facing consecutive lifetimes in a federal bed and breakfast." "You think Bello will give up Odin so I can cut a deal?" "He likes you, doesn't he?" "Yeah." "There's no way Mike's cover held up during that arrest, Charlie." "No, Bello saw an agent mirandize me." "You were losing blood by the pint." " I don't think you were..." " Mike, are you made or not?" " I'm clean." " The kid's literally busting at the seams." "Charlie, he takes so much as a gut punch in the cafeteria, guess what?" "He's going to bleed out all over the county's fine linoleum." "Stop trying to make this decision for him." "This might be our last chance to finally nail Odin." "Come on!" "What do you say, stitch?"

"I won't coddle you or patronize you with an apology." "You are a man, a soldier." "Did I hold a gun to your head?" "On several occasions, yeah." "These are hard walls." "I understand." "Did you talk to the feds?" "What do you know about the feds?" "I know they offered me the presidential suite of jail cells if I gave them information on Odin." "That's information you do not have." "And that fact may yet prove to keep you alive." "Not me." "Keep you alive." "They know you have it."

"Get him out of here!" " You put me in here!" " Get off!" " I'll kill you!" " Get him off!" "I trusted you!" "Get him the hell out of here!" "How did he get in here?" "Get out!" "I'm so sorry to ask you this, but could you hold the tip of my measuring tape?" "No, for real." "This is not sexual at all." " Just hold the tip of it, please." " Johnny, what are you doing?" "I'm measuring dimensions." "I'm pretty sure bounce housing is an outdoor activity." " Oh, are you pretty sure?" " Oh, I'm pretty sure." "'Cause I'm about to blow your freaking mind." "You're about to blow something." "And it's not my mind." "Paul!" "Johnny, where's Briggs?" "I don't know." "What's up?" "Paul?" " You okay?" " Paul?" "I'm fine." "I just think I..." " Paul!" " Whoa, hey." "Come here." "God!" "Hold on to me." "Charlie, what happened?" "He's fine." "Paulie!" "Chuckie, relax." "My ears work faster than my legs." "Okay?" "Whoa, whoa." "Warren, you are unwell, my friend." "The guard brought Bello in while we were sitting there." "He started attacking Mike." "It had to be an Odin thing, 'cause nobody showed up for the visitation." "Charlie, pause." "You know, you were right." "We should've never put him in there." "BRIGGS:" "Yeah, you think?" "Tora!" "Tora!" "Tora!" "Huh, Mikey?" " Yeah, Mikey, I gotta move that couch..." " Johnny." " (CELL PHONE RINGS)" " I can put it somewhere else." "It's the Bureau." "Hello?" "Now?" "Yeah, no." "Yes, sir." "I'll be right there." "That was Clarke." "He wants me to come into HQ." "For what?" "He didn't say." "Well, if it's Clarke, it's got to be about the Bello bust, yeah?" "Son." "You better pop some pills." "You're about to get a medal." "Hope they don't take my picture."

"I was a little kid with big dreams." "I really never expected a commendation for busting Bello." "Oh, no, no, no." "I wish this concerned a commendation." "Badillo's reports on you lately have been less than glowing." "He indicates you've been repeatedly insubordinate." "I have been tirelessly subordinate, despite his increased zealotry and paranoia." "Does it also say that he put a bug in my room?" "As a matter of fact, it does." "Do you have any sense as to why he may have done that?" "Yeah, he thought I was either unwilling or too inept to handle my assignment." "Are you?" "Unwilling or inept?" "No, sir." "Have you, and I quote," ""'Fallen under the winsome sway of Agent Paul Briggs"'?" "That's ridiculous." "Well, I'm not here to come down on you." "What's this about?" "Badillo left his office three days ago." "Hasn't been seen since." "What are you talking about?" "Tracked his cell records, bank records, all inactive." "Can you account for the whereabouts of Agent Briggs these past few days?" "You think Briggs is responsible?" "Well, that's what we need you to ascertain." "I'm sorry, but this is..." "This is crazy." "I don't even think Briggs knows Juan exists." "Well, we don't know that." "What we do know is that Badillo checked out a Morantz PMC340 receiving unit on his last day." "Yeah, an auto mount." "He thought Briggs might be working with the Caza Cartel." "He'd hoped that he'd self-incriminate." "And if he did pursue Briggs in order to record that admission?" "His disappearance would be on tape." "Where's Juan's car?" "It's unclear." "But you're close to Briggs, and that's a good place to start looking." "We've all got a lot of respect for the work Briggs has done for the Bureau." "But I think it's time we determine if he's that guy, or is he that guy." "Homeboy tried to sabotage me, but I am un-sabotage-able." "You know what, Johnny?" "We love you, but you are eminently sabotage-able." " Self-sabotage don't count, son." " Self-sabotage absolutely counts." "What are you doing, bookworm?" "Going over the detention center's incoming calls." "I'm trying to isolate who put in Bello's visitation request." "That's pretty much the most boring thing I've ever heard in my life." "There are some things that are more important than your bounce castle, Johnny." " JOHNNY:" "Are there?" " Uh-huh."

"I thought, after this morning, we were past all that." "I'm not going to let you die in the living room, Mike, but I can't watch you play best friends with Briggs, not after what you told me." "It's complicated." "No, it's not." "You're sitting down there, lying your ass off, to the only people who give a shit about you..." "Briggs is a junkie, Paige." "What the hell are you talking about?" "He's a heroin addict." "Recovering." " Bull." " It's not bull." "I followed him to a Narconon meeting in San Diego." "Is that why you're investigating him?" "No." "The Bureau thinks there's more." "Is there?" "My supervising agent, the one who set me on Briggs, is missing." "And they think Briggs might have done away with him." "This is a bad joke." "I wish it was." "I wanted to be an FBI agent my entire life." "I finally made it, and then I got this assignment, and the longer I stayed here, I realized it's wrong." "But I am an FBI agent, and this is my job." "Briggs isn't a murderer." "I don't think he is, either." "Then you gotta tell him." "What if we're wrong?" "I guess, I don't really like birthdays either." "Fear of death, and all that." "I hear you." "Plus, you know, the kid, he noticed some gray in my beard." "That flipped me out." "How is the boy?" "What is his name?" "Daniel?" "He's good, man." "He really is." "You got any kids?" "Yeah, I had a wife and kid." "A son, actually." "But I screwed it up." "She tossed you out?" "No." "No, I walked." "Birthdays, man." "Birthdays are tough." "They just remind me how bad I shit the bed, you know?" "Marks another year that I don't get to spend with my family."

" Uh-oh." "Yeah." "We're having some problems." "Well, yo, man, if you want to work it out, what are you doing here?" "Hey, she wants the night, I give her the night." "But I'll be there bright and early." "You know, the thing is, if you don't fight for something you want, you end up alone." "You know what?" "I think I'm going to get up out of here." "Feel like you're going to make that surprise party after all." "Hey, maybe I got a second chance to not end up alone." "Oh, no, no, no, no, no." "I got it this time." "Okay, Sherlock, time for a break, huh?" "You need to get your mind off of Odin." "I'm not letting this go." "You know what, sugar, you could be doing this work anywhere in the house." "But you're sitting down here for a reason." "Yeah, you know what?" "You're right, I am." "Maybe I'm just hoping that you'll put your head in this and help me, maybe participate in this case."

"I'm surprised you wanted to see me." "We are both full of surprises, aren't we?" "The white boy." "The Reservist Marine." "When I say it now, at least my sleep will be more restful." "In here?" "I doubt it." "I still see Eddie at night." "We came to this country together." "He was my only friend, and I his." "All this time, I thought I'd killed him." "You did..." "You put a gun in his hand, and you told him what to do with it." "No." "No." "No!" "No." "You killed him." "He was a human sacrifice at the altar of your sacred badge." "That's absurd." "Where were you when drugs were being dealt?" "Or when men were tortured and killed?" "You did not stop me because it did not serve your purposes." "I wanted to stop you." "But I had orders." "Orders." "My men follow orders too." "The only difference between you and me is that I will pay for my sins." "We are done here." " Yo, Briggs." " Hey, yo, what's up?" "We gotta talk." "Sounds serious." "Hit me." "I've been investigating you for the past three months." "Hmm." "You're not surprised?" "You know, top of your class at Quantico." "Should've been able to write a ticket to whatever detail you wanted." "Instead, you ended up here." "I knew something was up." "Now, if I was a good detective," "I would ask you, why would you assume I was here to investigate you?" "But you are a good detective, Michael, which is why you've uncovered my penchant for powdered opioids, right?" "Which pretty much confirmed the investigation, yeah." "Yeah." "Pretty much did." "So I've got to ask." "What did you turn up?" "Just that." "You've told me now." "I assume that means that the investigation is over, yeah?" "I wish it was." "Why don't you sit down?" "The agent that gave me this assignment, he's missing." ""'Missing."'" "And Clarke thinks you're responsible." "I'm not in the agent disappearing business, Mike." "I know that." "That's why I'm telling you." "He wants you to prove this?" "Yeah, they think he might have been wearing a wire, and that the disappearance might be on a tape in his car." "Okay, good." "Well, what's your SO's name?" "Juan Badillo." "I've never even heard of the guy." "Briggs, I'm gonna start looking for this car." "I'd really love your help." "No." "No, it'd look like a cover up, Mike." "Right." "Still..." "I'm sorry." "Thanks for telling me." "Even if it was a few months late." "You think Odin Rossi is an FBI agent?" "Yeah." "I mean, I had my suspicions, but now I'm pretty damn certain." "It wouldn't be the first time I see corrupt police." "I found this in the hotel room." "It's got a little pinhole camera with a video transmitter." "I don't know, I think, you know..." "Odin screws over Caza." "They send Jangles to come and get him." "He puts that in a hotel room, tries to put a face to the name." "This plan, was it successful?" "Did he put a name to the face?" "I pulled the plug right before you got there, so if Jangles got there before us, then he saw his face." "If we find this dirty FBI agent, perhaps he could lead me to Jangles, sí?" "This agent, what is his name?" "I don't have a name." "Okay, well, tell me when you do, because I can help you." "Of course you'll help me." "We're in this hunt together, right?" "Yeah." "Perfect." "So, how do we proceed?" "So why did you tell Briggs you were investigating him?" "I told Briggs because I wanted to see the look on his face when I said the name "'Juan Badillo."'" "And what did you see?" "MIKE:" "He had no vdea who he was." "Ripped By mstoll"
