All Good Things

Come on, you can do this.

I wouldn't be asking you to do it if I didn't know exactly how it was gonna go.

What has gotten into you?

- Nothing. - This isn't like you.

Just you say you know how it's gonna go,

but you don't.

- I do. - No, you can't.

- We've never done this before. - See, that's just not true.

We may not have done this exact scenario, but we've run a bunch just like it.

The field changes, but the game is the same.

This doesn't feel the same.

All right, Lucky. Listen to me.

There are more good people in the world than bad,

and the good people, the regular people,

they're wired to help when they see someone who needs it.

Someone will help you.

Easy for you to say.

You think it's easy for me to do this?

To ask you to go out there?

Because believe me, it's the last thing I want to do.

So you're worried?

Of course. I worry about you.

Why?

I thought you knew exactly how this was going to go.

Lucky, whatever it is you're thinking, get it out of your head.

Do not fuck with me.

Not today.

It's not worth the risk.

Just thinking I'd like to get out of here alive.

You want out, this is out.

What if he's not here to make a deal?

Then I'll do what I gotta do.

You sure about this?

Which part?

All of it.

Well, she'll have the money.

I should be coming.

Well, you weren't invited.

I found this.

In Cary's things.

Thought you'd want it.

Hey, Dutch.

How you doing?

Living the dream.

Good morning.

Is she wired up?

She is.

Okay. Let me walk you through this.

Now, I know Agent Rand's probably gone over a lot of this with you already,

but just to reiterate,

you're not alone out here.

It'll be just Agent Rand and me. The team's a mile out.

We can hear and record everything from your transmitter.

What we need you to do is to get the elements of the crime on tape.

You don't give them anything

until you've got Whittaker verbally confirming awareness of the gas scam,

and that he profited from it.

Scheme and intent. Got it.

Exactly.

Got your safe word?

Yes.

Say it.

- Genius. - Use it in a sentence.

Doesn't take a genius to work out if you're using a safe word

it's probably a little too late.

All right, this is your spot.

All right, we'll be right there.

Clear line of sight to you.

All right. See you on the other side.

Are you sure she can do this?

She's fine. She's good.

Hey, she doesn't look fine to me.

She won't cave.

You're awfully quiet.

I'm thinking.

About what?

Prison.

I don't think I ever really thanked you for getting me out.

No, you didn't.

Well, it came with a pretty big string attached.

I'm nothing if not consistent.

I'd like to think you would have done it anyway.

I'm so sorry it took me so long to track down the money.

Target approaching the meet spot, 500 yards out.

All right, people. Showtime.

Well, you weren't seeing clearly for a little while there.

Your boy was in the mix.

And while I didn't ask you to put him there,

I just want you to know that I'm very sorry about how it all shook out.

I know I should have said that sooner.

Sentiment is difficult for me.

My father beat every last bit of it out of me before I hit puberty.

It's why I never had kids.

But you did have a kid, Wayne.

That was your choice, not mine.

You knew where I stood on that.

I think it would serve us both well

to look forward from here on out, not back.

Don't you agree?

Yes, I do.

So this is the girl who caused all this trouble?

You're not what I pictured either.

No, I bet I'm not.

I feel for you, Lucky.

You shouldn't be in this spot right now.

I mean, it wasn't you who stole my money. That was your old man.

He did it right under your nose, didn't he?

Yeah.

And how'd that work out for him?

From what I hear, you're a very smart girl.

If things had gone differently, you could've been working for me.

No, thanks.

I know how you treat the women who work for you.

- She's gonna blow the whole thing up. - She's fine.

She's just settling in.

Funny that we've never met before.

I feel like I've been hearing Cary talk about you forever.

All good things, I'm sure.

Well, you would come up when we were talking about having kids.

Cary said he wanted a girl

because he didn't think he'd know how to raise a son.

He just couldn't figure out why his father wanted nothing to do with him.

He was worried that whatever that broken thing was in his father

would be in him too.

I guess we'll never know now, will we?

I told him he was better off not knowing what a piece of shit you are.

But you should know,

when Cary stole that money, he wasn't stealing from me.

Or Priscilla or John for that matter.

That was his special way of saying,

"Fuck you, Wayne."

What is she doing?

I don't know. Something's up.

And you have used up the last shred of my patience.

Like you said, we haven't met before.

But I'm going to give you a friendly piece of advice.

Money only means so much to me.

There's a principle here.

That's something a two-bit hustler like you will never understand.

And if you push me to the point where I think

that I will derive some measure of satisfaction from killing you,

I will consider it well worth the price.

So I ask again.

Where is my fucking money?

Okay.

What is that?

Well, it's all there.

Ten million dollars.

Minus a few thousand. Cary had some expenses.

You converted the money to crypto?

Not me. Cary.

I don't recall you mentioning this particular detail

when you asked for this meet.

Slipped my mind, I guess.

So, the account will have a seed phrase.

I take it you've brought that as well.

Yes, the seed phrase is how I'm walking out of here.

You see, right now it only exists in one place.

So, I walk away safely.

You get your money.

Or I have my guys come over here, cut you open,

and remove your organs one by one until you give me the seed phrase.

- That's definitely another way to go. - Lucky, this wasn't part of the deal.

She didn't say anything about this.

Well, I didn't think I had to since Wayne already knew.

Right, Wayne?

What?

Wayne knew the money was converted into crypto,

same way he knew how to find Cary in La Jolla.

What the hell is she talking about, Wayne?

The same way he knows the FBI is here,

listening to every word we say.

His buddy, Agent Kershaw, told him.

So as long as we're all here,

why don't we just get this out in the open, shall we?

That's a bad idea.

You got a better one?

Billie...

Don't move.

Don't you fucking move.

Well done, Lucky.

Just figured I'd level the playing field.

I'm guessing you didn't know about Kershaw either.

Whatever game you're playing here, Lucky,

it's not gonna go the way you think it will.

Well, I don't know exactly when Kershaw joined the team,

but I'm assuming it's pretty recent,

because otherwise Wayne would have stopped you getting arrested

that day with John, right?

You know the drill.

Remove your weapon, drop it on the floor.

You had Rand, I had Kershaw, and around we go.

The danger in being as smart as you are

is that you get used to being the smartest person in the room,

and then when you're not, you turn out to be woefully unprepared.

Bring him out.

You didn't think I'd just show up

without taking protective measures of my own, did you?

If you hurt him, your money is as good as gone.

That's cute. That's cute.
