Thank you, myself.

Thank you, Andy.

Whoa, check this out.

I was going to buy you a drink, but with all that cash, maybe you should spring.

The homeless shelter is down the street.

How about a real drink?

Barkeep.

Champagne. Perrier de Jouer.

I want the world to know... Hello, Bobby.

Is everybody here? Waiting on you, Miss Brie.

Brie! You're coming.

Get in here, girl.

Cheers.

I love you three.

And you know you're the soul of American free enterprise incarnate. The blood of

Morgan, Frick, and Carnegie is coursing through your veins.

But I would like to see what we have to show.

We're 12 hours on the assembly line, ladies. Let's see it. Yes, Mr. Park.

Right away, Mr. Park.

What's going on, ladies? Could I join the party?

Zero barbarians at the gate.

Andiamo, Bobby.

Roger, boss.

Don't try to talk it down, why everyone bags on

my town.

Stand and see, it works for me.

Take a look around,

it's just another day in LA.

Be more than me Anybody who makes me is free

Someday With one

ear left down Just another day, oh

I was bowling with this guy who works for Alejandro Cruz.

Name? Rudy Valdez. He says there's a big drug sale about to go through.

Right here at the beach.

A million dollars.

We'll assume Cruz is sell -side.

Who's the buyer?

See, now, this is the weird part.

Rudy don't know.

It's some new player nobody's heard of.

And? That's it?

Yeah, I'm working on it, okay?

Look, you need to work a little harder. Bring us something we can use, okay?

Yes, sir.

Need you guys to do the same thing.

Lieutenant, we can't handle our own cases. This cruise is a big fish. The

is feeling some heat on it. Therefore, so are we, all right?

Looks like you got a visitor.

Probably an emissary from the chief.

Go to work.

It was Saturday afternoon, middle of the day. He asked me up to his place.

Is that good or bad?

Just that I was asking myself.

So I went.

It was bad. So what happened? I mean, did he make a move or... He asked me to

his laundry.

No. What did you do?

Oh, I did it all right.

I set a match to his hamper.

Chris, Corey.

What's up, Lieutenant?

I'm not so sure myself. There's an FBI agent in my office. He wants to see the

two of you.

Great. And I'm the whacked out fed.

Man, we're really attracting the insane.

Spook Quill on the beach, Enright the DEA maniac. Oh, the worst was your pal

from Metro.

Don't even remind me.

Although there was that FBI agent who worked the bomber case with us.

Agent Stone, right? Yeah, he was pretty cute.

Yeah, kind of cute, actually.

Kelly McNamara. Do you remember Agent Stone? Sure.

Hi. How you doing?

Great. Good to see you both.

What's up?

Miss Hundred was passed at the beach last night.

It's counterfeit.

We've all been trained to spot bad currency.

This one looks fine.

This is a real hundred.

Compare them.

You see that line of microscopic print right next to the... Yeah, what about

Look at the phony now.

It's not there. The line of print's missing.

Exactly. Without a glass, you could never tell the difference.

The counterfeiter who's making these is very sophisticated.

Do you have any idea who he is?

We're calling him Rumpelstiltskin.

What's that supposed to mean?

Rumpelstiltskin, the malevolent gnome who turned straw into gold.

Very good, Officer McNamara.

All we know about he and his people is they hit a large urban area, flood it

with counterfeit hundreds, then move on as quickly as possible.

Who are his people?

Well, apparently in Dallas he had a couple of beautiful women pass in the

hundreds. How do they actually do it?

Clubs, restaurants, bars, anywhere there's a high cash turnover.

That's great. Beautiful girls hanging out in clubs in L .A. Should be easy to

spot. For an FBI agent, you should know a lot about counterfeiting. Been working

very closely with the Secret Service on this. They knew I teamed with you guys

before, so they asked me to liaison.

What do you propose, Agent Stone?

There's been a cluster of these hundreds near the beach area. I was hoping

Officer Kelly and Officer McNamara could go undercover.

That's asking a lot. I'm already shorthanded as it is. This guy heads my

personal most wanted list.

He's going to be in town three days tops.

Kelly and McNamara showing me the ropes.

I think we can nail him. Could you possibly go along with me on this one?

All right.

Three days.

I'll set you up. Come on.

Come with me.

Look forward to working together again.

That was a pleasant surprise.

Yep.

I've really grown to love that face of yours, Benjamin. It speaks of our great

tradition. Industry.

Thrift.

Husbandry. And those eyes.

So full of wisdom, yet sparkling.

Merry.

What is it that you're thinking about that gives you such a countenance?

Is it Parisian women?

You cad?

Hello.

Not now. I'm working.

Please let us in.

No. We'll do anything.

Anything.

Anything.

I'm creating wealth here. I'm empire building. I don't think Rockefeller and

Huntington had to put up with your sort of fleshy distractions.

Oh, no. Out.

Now.

No.

There's no time for this. You'll ruin everything.

It's so damn important anyway.

Only the most perfect series of counterfeit currency ever created. Well,

wrong with the bills we've been passing?

Those were merely child's play.

This new series is my greatest work ever. It's a magical synthesis of the

spiritual and material.

Artist. And besides, these bills aren't perfect. We will end up dead or in the

pokey. We're about to make a deal that will enable us to retire in style.

Now leave me alone, you bimbos.

Naughty, naughty. He said the B word.

You didn't mean us as women.

I didn't mean it. Just leave me alone so I can keep working.

All right, lad.

We'll leave you alone.

That tickled.

Let it go.

Terrible. All the bills are kosher. None of them were passed on by gorgeous

women. Don't worry, Officer Kelly. We'll get them.

Don't you think that we should move on to first names?

Absolutely. I'm Tim. Chris.

So, how are the tips?

Rotten and a broken streak of tightwads.

Hey, guys.

Any action?

Oh, tons.

Let's see. I broke up two fights, tossed out three drunks, called the cops on a

hooker. Unfortunately, every hundred I got was as good as gold.

What do you guys say?

I can sure use one.

Um, not for me, thanks.

How about a Coke or something?

No, I'm fine.

Hungry? Federally subsidized shore leave?

Oh, my God. You weren't in the Navy, were you?

Absolutely, Lieutenant Kelly.

You didn't mention that before. What did you do?

Flew F -14s.

Persian Gulf?

There and out of Pearl.

I was stationed in Pearl for a year.

Cried when I had to be shipped out. The shore patrol had to drag me on the

plane. Hawaii's great.

Did you ever make it up the Kona Coast?

Once. Pretty close to paradise.

Ever hit Roxa?

You went to Roxa?

What's Roxa?

Strip joint.

Coming over to the stage.

God, where have you been?

I have to be careful.

Does he suspect anything?

No. Relax, will you?

Did he hurt you?

No.

Did he, you know, did he touch you?

Well, yes, he did, maybe.

I'm sick.

He touched me everywhere. He touched me here.

Then he touched me.

Here. He touched me here.

I can't wait to kill him.

Stop waiting.

Look, there'll be time for that in Cancun.

Sorry. We have to postpone the hit.

Lasso's hatching's a big scheme. It says it'll be the score of a lifetime.

Wait, what score? Where? I don't know.

Nikki, I do love you.

Chris, where have you been at 2 .30?

Yipe.

So, how long did you stay last night after I left?

Till 3.

3?

Time was just whizzing by.

Chris, Corey, you want to come up a minute?

Yes, sir.

So, did anything besides talk happen?

Not yet.

Look, there's just too many places Rumpelstiltskin can pass these bills.

Lieutenant Palermo has a good suggestion.

Instead of concentrating on a few spots, let's throw a wider net.

Three of us dressed to party at as many places as possible.

Beats waitressing.

Let's do it.

No, I'm feeling open.

Yeah.

The terms sound fine.

I'll meet you first.

Okay. Adios.

I own you.

Hello. Let's go. What are you guys doing? Suit up.

It's only four o 'clock in the afternoon.

You're not a vampire.

A little daylight won't kill you.

What, joining a combat?

Maybe your fantasy is out of it.

All that aside, I'm proud to announce that you'll all soon be leaving the

workforce. This big transaction goes down day after tomorrow in the old

yard behind the graffiti pit, 10 a .m.

We have to get up at 10 in the morning?

No, you actually have to get up at 9 to be there at 10.

Can't we just keep doing what we're doing and sleeping?

Ladies, understand this.

This is how great wealth in America is created.

You find one great opportunity and you seize it.

Like Bill Gates.

Like Ted Turner. See it like this. You don't let me down.

You don't let yourselves down.

And you don't let our traditions down.

And you will never have to work again.

And, um, this big transaction, Lassie, is what exactly?

Some things still must remain a secret.

All right, then, tough guy. Would you be a dear and make yourself youthful?

Del

Toro!

Callaway!

Where you guys been all day?

Looking for you, Artie.

What do you got?

I've been hanging with my boy Rudy all afternoon.

Where is he now?

You should bust him.

What for?

Because he's carrying a bunch of smack.

We could take him in and trade up for crews.

Make your chief mighty happy.

That'll be fun.

What do you got?

Nothing. You must have ditched the junk.

Woo!

Fat city make me feel okay.

Lady in Chicago, she makes me lock the door.

Judy up in Jersey Rock, we're all not alone.

But it's all right, okay.

Sometime I just run away.

I run.

Yes, I run.

Back to New Orleans. Smoky jungle breeze.

To the women simply weep.

Santa Monica Police Department.

I need to see that last $100 bill you just took here.

This bill's counterfeit. I'm going to have

to take it with me.

I'll give you a receipt.

Here's my card.

I'll be in touch.

Okay, the deal's happening the day after tomorrow

at 10 o 'clock in the morning at some old service yard behind the graffiti

Okay, and what is going down exactly?

Laszlo's still not saying, but I'm guessing it's some kind of drug swap.

We'll let him do the deal, and then we'll kill him back at the hotel.

What about Bobby G?

I'll take care of him.

How? You don't want to know, so don't ask.

And Sheila and Lana and... Please.

Do you still have the key?

Oh, yeah.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Hola, Senor Cruz.

Where's Parks?

I'm Parks.

You?

Oye, Rudy, this guy looks like the pizza boy.

Are we having a problem already?

Yeah. I don't know you.

Nobody I know knows you.

I don't know you either.

But, uh, we're broadening our circle of acquaintance, and I think that's

healthy. Would a punk like you get a million dollars?

I have influential friends.

And all that should really matter to you is that my money's good. See, we're not

really building a long -term relationship here, amigo.

Okay.

But it goes down just like I said.

Or else not even these influential friends will be able to help you out.

You know what?

I'm loving you.

Get off!

He got upset.

So he ditches his plane in the middle of the lake.

What's the matter?

I found one.

Trumple Stillskin's all right.

Did you get a look at him past it? Oh, a woman, mid -twenties. Looked like a

swimsuit model out of uniform.

Well, that's good, Corey. Why are you so glum?

I lost her. She passed it to the bartender. I went to go get it, and she

away. So we'll put you with the sketch artist in the morning. And this is the

closest we've been yet. This is good.

What do you say we all have a midnight supper here on Uncle Sam?

No, I'm going to go home.

I'm beat. Oh, come on, Corey. Stay.

Yeah, please.

You two go ahead.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Night.

Man, I'm starving.

Hey. Any luck?

Nothing. Me neither. And I've rousted every lowlife sleaze I know.

I'm beat.

Ditto.

What? Check that out.

No way. She's homeless. Look at the dress.

Let's find out if we've got somewhere else to go.

Miss.

Miss, get up, please.

Miss.

She's dead.

What are you doing here? Did something happen?

No, nothing's happened.

Nothing bad, nothing... This is weird. I shouldn't have just shown up like this.

What do you want?

Just to talk.

About the case?

About anything but the case.

Well, I thought you were interested in Chris.

No, no. I mean, Chris is terrific. I like Chris. I hope we can stay friends,

she's just not my type.

And I am?

Yeah.

I think. Maybe.

Man.

I'm sorry. This is stupid. I should have waited until the case is over. This is

really unprofessional.

Shut up.

Excuse me.

I said...

And it's changed me, being a cop.

In what way?

Growing up with my father being a cop, and my grandfather, and my big brother.

And my mother dying when I was young.

I wanted so much to be like them.

And I always felt left out.

Sure. I mean, they've been great for the most part, but it was such a

fraternity, and I don't know about the girl.

Yeah, I've noticed.

But I always wanted to be tough.

You know, I loved how they could walk into a tight situation and take control

and not be intimidated.

No, you can't. Well, yeah, I mean, there's still a little fear to deal

I can handle myself pretty well.

It's funny, because in an odd way, I kind of had the same situation.

I mean, my dad was in the Navy, and his dad, and so forth, back to Noah and the

USS Downpour.

Is that why you joined?

Absolutely. It was always considered inevitable.

Once I got in,

It was not for me.

How did your dad take it when he bailed?

We didn't speak for a year.

Wow.

And now?

He's going to respect my choice, and I care a lot less whether he approves or

not.

Ow.

It's 3 a .m.

I should go.

I crashed in on you to keep you up half the night.

Good night, Corey.

Good night.

Aren't you forgetting something?

I don't.

Did you find this in her purse?

She didn't have one.

Idea, wallet?

Nothing. So where'd the bill come from?

It was tucked up in her address.

The M .E. found it when he started examining her. What's the big deal with

bill anyway?

It's a counterfeit.

What?

No way.

Yep, she probably had a whole roll of them in her purse.

I appreciate it, guys.

No problem. Yeah, sure thing.

Any leads on that drug deal?

It's all dried up, Lieutenant.

Keep looking into it.

What do you think?

Robbery? Or internal dissension?

That's close, Steve.

Just the eyes further apart and thin out the face a little bit.

Any empathy?

Oh, no.

I've been looking at him for hours.

How about the sketches?

Steve's just finishing up now. He's pretty close.

So have you seen Tim this morning?

He's with the lieutenant.

Listen, Chris, there's something I want to talk to you about.

Corey, Chris.

We think there's a connection between Rumpelstiltskin and the body of the

in TC down on the beach.

How so?

She was carrying this on her.

Rumpelstiltskin?

Unquestionably. So the girl was part of a sales force.

Why was she killed?

I don't know. Let's just keep hitting the books. It'd help a lot if we could

a name to the woman you saw last night. Then what do you want us to do tonight?

Wait for the night shifts to come back. We'll circulate the dead girl's picture

and Corey's sketch.

Thanks, dude.

All right, here's our girl.

Lana!

Sheila?

What's going on?

Where is everybody?

Gee, Laz, you do care.

It's eight in the morning. Where have you been?

Laz, we've got some unhappy news.

Where's Bree?

Bree? See, now, Bree had become a bit of a problem. She was scheming with this

drip named Nicky Mink.

To do what?

Well, kill you and take over your operation.

It's true, boss.

They were going to cut off your head with a machete. Oh, God.

Yeah, but chin up, Lassie. Your girls took care of it.

With Bobby's help.

What did she do?

Cut her throat.

Bree's dead?

Totally.

What'd you do with her body?

We just dumped her in front of a bakery.

Like the tart she is.

What about this, um, this Nikki?

Nikki will be no problem.

Oh, what the hell.

We'll be long gone by the time these dingbat beach cops figure anything out

anyway. Robert, please fire up the jacuzzi.

I'm feeling stupid.

I think Chris left before I could tell him.

You're a good friend.

She's a good friend.

I don't want to hurt her.

We haven't really done anything yet to hurt her.

But we're going to.

Is this really a good idea, Corey?

I'm not... I'm not thinking about where this is headed.

For once, I just want to close my eyes and go.

Even if... Even if...

Tim, my whole life I've been a good girl. I've done the

right things.

I've followed all the rules.

And now I just don't care.

This could affect your career.

I don't care.

Flyers are ready and the night shift will already be on.

We should go.

Right.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

What

are you doing?

What we do every night. Not tonight.

We can't take a risk on you being spotted and tied into Bree's death.

Man, are you paranoid.

No.

I'm prudent.

Besides, we need to plan for tomorrow.

Right. Well, if we're going to plan, why don't you tell us what it is that we're

doing?

Tomorrow, we will be buying one million dollars of pure heroin from a very

creepy Colombian gentleman.

And we'll do it with those perfect new bills that you've been cranking out.

Precisely. And then we'll just sell it to our little pal in Detroit.

Where it will have the approximate street value of... $18 million.

Wait a minute. What if the Colombians find out that the bills are bogus? What

are they going to do? Cry to the cops that they sold their heroin for funny

money?

We will be so far gone.

They will never find us.

You are so hot, Laszlo Park.

So are you.

No.

Can I do the wrap?

That can never happen.

Hey, Grants.

Can't you see?

Grants written all over my face.

You know, I've eventually got to get back to D .C.

And your point would be?

Well, I'm just, I'm just thinking what happens then. I mean, you know.

Why are you smiling at me?

Because I'm not thinking about tomorrow.

I'm thinking about right now.

Chris, come here.

Where have you been?

I got to talk to you about something.

Not now. Yes, now.

All right.

What's the news flash?

Tim and I... We're involved.

What do you mean, involved?

I mean the whole thing.

Fireworks, woman candles, bells, whistles, you name it. You and Tim?

Yeah. When?

Last night.

Look, Chris, I'm sorry.

Yeah, sure.

It just happened. There's just something so strong between us and... Man, this

is sounding so horrible.

Maybe because it is. Oh, come on, Chris.

Oh, come on, Corey. You know that... You knew how I felt about him.

What? How about the way I felt?

Oh, no. Wouldn't want to stand in the way of that.

That's not fair, Chris.

Look, I didn't want it to be like this.

Maybe you should have thought of that before.

Chris, wait.

What's your name?

Mickey. Mickey.

Who did this to you?

Lana.

Who did this to you?

Sisters.

Who are they?

Come on.

Trimble's soul skin.

Why?

I like your security force.

Give me a break.

Where's the smack?

You let her talk?

We both talked, though.

It's the 90s, man. What can I say?

Now, where's my drug, Rudy?

It's all good, boss.

Now, where's my cash?

It's so fast.

Oh, you don't trust me.

What is it Reagan said?

Trust would verify Reagan.

You don't say anything against Reagan, man.

Len, take it easy.

Is this one of the ones that did it to you?

Yes.

Lana. Is this her sister, Sheila?

No, Beth.

Bree.

Did the sisters kill Bree?

Bree.

Now you, Lana, get a little fella his money.

What happened to trust but verify?

Knock yourself out, Hector.

Where'd you get the hundred dollar bill?

Where can we find him?

When?

Today.

Million dollar.

There's a big drug deal.

Where's the deal going down?

The old service yard.

Defeating pit. When is that?

10 a .m.

It's 10 .15.

The permac's here. Get in here.

Picky picky.

We have a deal.

Vaya con Dios, amigo.

Are your ladies for sale?

That's not funny.

Too bad.

Federation stone, come out with your hands in the air.

We're saying goodbye, Elliot, and that's... Got a minute?

Get the hand up, hand up, hand up, hand up.

Chris, come on in.

I can't stay.

I just wanted to come and apologize.

You want to apologize?

Yeah, I'm not proud of the way I reacted the other day.

I should have talked to you before anything happened. I'm not proud of

Well, sometimes things just develop.

So I'm learning.

I want you to be happy.

I'm glad if you are.

Thanks, Chris.

I've got to get back to D .C.

I'll put it off another day.

I know.

You know.

Well, it's hardly a surprise.

You seem to be taking it very well.

Well, I promised myself I was going to enjoy this and see where it goes from

there. Can you keep that promise?

Oh, my powers of self -control are excellent.

So I've noticed.

Don't count on it.

Look down at me, it works for me.

Take a look around, just another day in LA.

Anybody

see

more than me?

Anybody?

PC is free!

Someday.

What if it's down?

It's just another day.
