All language subtitles for Murder in a Small Town s02e01 Acts of Murder

Garrett, it's okay.

Just tell me what's happening. Shut up!

Stay out of it, Denise.

I have the rest. I just think I can get
her the rest. Give who?

The rest of what? I can handle it. Can
you?

Don't you touch me!

After seesawing back and forth all
night, Cassandra Lee takes the final

statement.

This

is

amazing. And it is thanks to all of you.
Especially your campaign manager.

Yes, yes, especially my campaign manager
and friends. Thank you, Phyllis.

And thank you to everyone who went door
to door, who gave out flyers, who spread

the word. And thank you, Carl, for just
believing in me.

So now I take your faith and I go to
work and I will do my damnedest.

They killed him.

Oh, my God. I don't know what to do.

I do.

This is not going to work. Yes, it will.
It has to. No, no. It's too obvious.

People are going to know I did this.

No, you did not.

What? You didn't kill him.

Because... Because killers did. What?
But Garrett...

What's up to his eyeballs in something?

Denise, we both know that.

It's shady stuff with very shady people.
And what happens when shady people get

killed?

The police go looking for criminals.

Well, Garrett wasn't a criminal. Yes, he
was.

Okay?

Now let's go.

Hey.

It's okay.

It's gonna be okay.

Oh, no. What are you doing up?

I was bringing you room service.

I should not have had all that
champagne.

If there was ever.

A night to be dancing on tables.

I danced on a table?

You don't remember?

Honey, you were so sexy.

Okay, why are you so cheerful?

86 votes!

Lance Lively!

I can't believe I won.

Mm -hmm. By so little.

At least I kept it suspenseful.

Oh,

God. Mm -hmm.

You gonna pick that up?

It's not my phone.

Wait, what is my phone doing there?

Oh, you don't remember, huh?

I'm sorry, Dan's on the kitchen counter,
too.

I remember.

God,

who is calling at 8 a .m. on a Sunday?

Welcome to Public Life, Counselor.

Cassandra Lee?

Garvey, right?

That's me, Garvey. Officer Harry.

Night shift guy, yeah.

And you are? Jackson. Layla.

Oh, yeah.

Good to be working with you.

Just spent a couple weeks, so still
getting up to speed with names.

Busy night?

Yeah, I was pretty quiet for a weekend.

A few fights, some DUIs, one drunken
disturbance.

Some guy claims a buddy showed up at his
house drunk and threatening, terrified

his wife and kid.

You need to check it out? They got a
name and address, but they couldn't

the drunk guy.

All right, I'll follow up. All right.

Hey, Corporal.

You planning on getting dressed first?

Yeah. Yeah, just as soon as I get
showered. Uh -huh.

You working today?

Uh, no, not a chance. I'm just checking
on the files.

All right, later then. Bye.

Darby?

New gal seems chipper.

Gal? Oh, sorry, the new corporal. Uh
-huh. Well, the chief worked with her in

Mississauga. Her dad was actually one of
his mentors, and he thinks she's

terrific. Well, best of all, she's here.

With Yen and Poco on detective track and
Kendrick and Langley, the rest of us

are left scrambling to cover shifts.

That's true.

True, Robbie.

Ooh,

incoming, Uncle Fred.

You beautiful, dangerous man.

He had a smoothie for breakfast because
he knew you'd be here.

I got you covered, friend.

Come to papa.

Sophie, I've got something for you.

Thank you.

Got your parents all to yourself for
once, huh?

Liza is 15 now. We are officially
cringe.

I think I saw her over there with her
friends.

Do you know any of those friends? Never
seen them before in my life.

All right, then.

Frederick?

Massage.

See ya.

See ya.

Answer it.

Hi. Morning. Is Garrett Walker home?

Garrett? No, I'm afraid not.

Why? Is Garrett your husband, ma 'am?

Yes. We've had a complaint. A man named
Raj Kohli said Garrett came to his house

last night and caused a disturbance.

Well, Garrett's a drinker, so he doesn't
know what to make at home.

He'll probably roll in around me and ask
him to call me.

Yeah, of course.

Thanks.

Good job.

They're already looking for him. Okay,

they'll find him, they'll make their
assumptions, and you play dumb.

Oh, my God. He deserved it.

Okay?

Okay.

Some of these are really good.

Yeah. A bit picture postcard, though.

You know, all seascapes and sunsets.
Well, that's kind of where we live,

Oh, Cassandra, congratulations.

Oh, thanks, Devin.

Well, these are pleasant.

See?

We're looking for inspiration.

Holly's term, photography project.
Problem is we can't find anything ugly

enough. Not ugly, just interesting.

Images of the Sunshine Coast, but I want
them to be different somehow.

Well, come by the library. I've got a
couple.

Are these all your work?

It's a mix. My own and some I've
collected over the years. That's

That's one of your mom's.

I've never seen that one before.

Councilwoman. Just who I wanted to see.

Congratulations. Now, I need your help.

My neighbor has a rooster.

Real piece of work.

Shirley Allberg.

She spent time here years ago.

I knew her.

Just a lovely human being.

She used to camp out at Half Moon Bay
with that strange, watchful little boy.

He hardly said a word.

But he watched out for her.

Chief Allberg.

Mayor Allman.

It's nice to see so many people out
today.

We should find time to chat. Now that
I've been re -elected, we can move

with your jurisdiction expansion.

It will be a challenge, but I know
you're up to it.

Where is Dursley?

Count the woman, Cassandra.

Congratulations.

We will have our differences, but we
will work through them. I am sure we

try.

I'm delighted to be working with you.

Spending money on the arts.

Here with our family doctor.

I survived.

God, so much for a day off. Should I
wear a chainmail or a Kevlar?

A couple of hikers spotted it earlier
this morning. They're the ones who

it in.

Plates registered locally.

Garrett Walker.

What complaint from this morning?

Someone was in there.

Left a whole lot of blood.

It's a strange place to dump a car. It's
not remote enough to stay hidden for

long. Someone was in here.

The question's who?

Let's check on the friend who made the
complaint.

If Garrett had stashed a body, why dump
his car?

He might have got interrupted or...
Well, Garrett was in the trunk.

Have friends just go over the vehicle.

Meantime, we talk to the wife.

Sorry to bother you again, Mrs. Walker.

Yeah, I'm not sure I want to know what
he did this time.

Um, you still haven't heard from
Garrett? No.

Mrs. Walker.

We found your husband's car abandoned in
the woods a few miles from here.

Abandoned? No sign of your husband,
though.

Where is he?

We don't know.

Is it common for your husband to be out
all night?

Yes.

Sometimes, but... Jesus, I went to the
grocery store. I got some of the Cosmic

Crisps. They were on sale. I'm not sure
if you like those ones. This is my

sister, Marita Solway.

I was just stopping by.

Is something... They found Garrett's car
in the woods, but not Garrett.

Oh, strange.

Can you think of anybody who might have
wished him harm?

No. He's fun and generous.

Isn't that right, Em?

Yeah.

Look, this isn't any of my business,
so...

Generous with friends, maybe.

I mean, a guy comes into a little money,
and does he take his wife on a

vacation? No.

He spends it on a new toy.

He really loves boating, so last year he
bought himself a new speedboat. Yeah,

he's never taken my sister out on it.

Not once.

I don't really like the water, so... Did
your husband have enemies?

I don't know. Probably.

Garrett has another side to him.

That's all I'm saying.

Thanks for your time.

We'll keep you informed.

Okay. This is my direct line in case you
think of anything.

Hey.

I smell the bleach.

Cleaning dip?

The sister.

She's intense.

I almost got a whiff of Madea.

Mayor Holman.

Christy, please.

So your art center, is that just
campaigning, or are you serious about

resurrecting the project?

Well, the arts are a big part of why
people love living here, not to mention

potential tourist draw.

Even though it would be enormously
expensive?

Then we'll suck tax dollars away from
other priorities.

What do you mean?

You're a priority.

Oh.

So you're not giving up. Nope. Nope.
Even as a little girl, you were very

bright. So creative, but stubborn.

To be continued.

Yeah. My best to your mom.

Yeah.

You and Garrett Walker are friends?

Um, drinking buddies, I guess.

Not as much since I had the kids.

Mr. Coley, walk me through exactly what
happened when Garrett showed up at your

house. I have a cousin who's a doctor in
Seattle.

He told me a couple of key Huskies were
going to be out this weekend.

Well, I mentioned that to Garrett, and I
guess he took it as a hot tip, placed a

big bet against Washington.

But the kids did end up playing.

Huskies won.

Garrett lost huge.

And he came banging on your door.

After that, my wife and me went to bed,
got up early.

Toddler's going through sleep
regression.

So Garrett is a gambler.

Is it a problem?

Well, he took it up a notch a year ago.

I think he dug himself a hole.

Look, I don't know this for sure, but he
might have gotten himself mixed up in

something.

Something?

One night he was wasted.

Mentioned doing favors for someone with
his speedboat.

What kind of favors?

Yeah, maybe it was nothing. I shouldn't
have said that.

Am I in trouble?

Boss, Coast Guard. They think they found
Gary Walker's boat.

Your medical examiner's on the way.

Quite the first case.

They must have doused him in gasoline.

This is bound with wire.

It was floating out by Brockton Point.

Gary Walker?

My God.

Most likely.

Dental records confirm it's Garrett
Walker.

Cranial trauma, blow to the head.

Enough to kill him?

Enough to knock him out.

He was also stabbed multiple times in
the chest.

Before or after the blow to the head?

Impossible to know.

But he didn't die from the stab wounds
either.

We found smoke in his lungs.

He died of smoke inhalation.

The fire on the boat.

Third time's the charm.

Where's his ankles?

It doesn't look like rope.

Wire wrap?

That's not something you'd commonly use
on a boat.

I wouldn't, of course.

I don't execute people.

Hey, boss.

Forensics matched the DNA from the body
to the blood in the car. Garrett was in

his own trunk.

So, where did he go from there?

Have forensics wind on their perimeter.
Get tracking dogs out. Let's figure out

what happened between the car and the
boat.

Sometime in the past year, Garrett
leveled up to a fancier speedboat. I

know how he paid for it. His friend, Raj
Kohli, thinks Garrett may have gotten

himself into something shady, doing
favors with the boat.

The drugs would be obvious.

Let's take a look at cases going back
two years, see what comes up.

Time to bring Denise in.

What's going on? I asked, but the
corporal wouldn't... Chief Albert, did

find him?

I'm afraid I have some bad news, Denise.

Your husband, Garrett, is dead.

Oh, my God.

Uh, where?

How? Somebody set his boat on fire.

He was on it.

What?

Oh, my God.

Any idea who might have done this?

No.

Did your husband have ties to criminal
organizations?

Of course not.

No, I... Who told you that?

A friend of his suggests he got mixed up
in something shady.

Any idea what that might have been?

No.

I mean, I... I wondered where he
disappeared to on that boat, but I... He

talk about it.

Garrett was assaulted before he was
killed on his boat.

Someone cracked him over the head,
stuffed him in the trunk, stashed the

Whoever did that probably thought they
killed him.

I loved my husband.

Your house smelled of bleach, Denise.

This morning, like someone was scrubbing
floors.

It was my cleaning day.

What do you suppose we'd find if we got
a warrant?

Forensics combed through your house.

Why would you do that?

Blood spatter.

Nearly impossible to eliminate.

Even with bleach.

One tiny little drop.

That's all it takes.

I think I want to see a lawyer now.

We'll have to cut her loose for now.
Let's give her a ride home.

Check. And tell her not to leave town.
Be careful.

Her husband's killer's still out there.

This where he mortars Bob?

Yeah, right over there.

Oh, man.

He seemed like a decent guy.

Get out of the air last night by any
chance?

I hadn't seen him for a couple days.

Nor his boat.

What couldn't you tell me about him,
Pete?

I minded my own business. He minded his.

I wondered how he could afford that
boat.

Extracurricular activities.

Well, it's the coast.

It's possible.

How about his associates, people he'd
meet up with?

Garrett came and went, but he was always
on his own.

What about his wife?

Denise? Not a boat person.

Denise's sister, though, she was down
here once or twice.

Marita? She works at the landing just up
there.

Rita is a bit of a firecracker.

In fact, she and Garrett had a dust -up
about something a couple months back.

Rita was screaming at him.

Thanks, Pete. Anytime.

Medea, character in Great Tragedy,
famous for, oh, famous for taking brutal

revenge on her husband.

Huh.

So, I've been checking the listings.

Don't worry.

I'll find something.

Oh, not if you don't look. How do you
feel about living above a butcher?

Ick.

I know the perfect place.

Phyllis. Not right now.

Tenant. Oh.

Hi. No, Layla is looking for an
apartment.

Perfect. My carriage house suite is...

I've had it up to here with crappy
tenants. The last one's just been three

months around.

It really is.

It's a great apartment.

I appreciate the help, thank you, but
I'm fine.

Okay.

Thanks for trying. Yeah, of course.

Gift course?

You're looking at it.

Look, I like people, including Phyllis,
even though she's... Well, you know.

All Phyllis, all the time.

But when I go home, I want it to be my
place, not just someone's upstairs room.

I don't think she means for you to...
Appreciate the help.

Yes, but I will find something that
feels right.

Thanks.

You play with fire, I guess you're going
to get burned.

Was Garrett playing with fire?

$100 ,000 boat?

Garrett does not have that kind of
money. What do you think?

You didn't like him much, did you?

I did.

Once. I mean, he was a hard worker.

Sweet to my sister.

But then he, uh, changed.

What were you and Garrett arguing about
a couple weeks back at his boat?

Uh, I just... I just see him coming and
going all the time while Denise was at

home alone, and one day I got fed up
with it.

You think she deserved to be free of
him?

Was that a crime?

No.

But attempted murder is.

Someone clubbed him over the head,
stuffed him in a car trunk.

Who would do that?

I gotta get to work.

Pop by sometime.

Have a beer.

How did we not know he was insane?

No, but this is good.

Someone else set fire to his boat with
some cut -rate Viking funeral. Why did

you hate him so much? Because he was a
dick, Denise, and he was cheating on

I saw him with another woman, okay?

Down by his boat.

I confronted him about it, but he denied
it, of course.

Plus, he was working out all the time,
and that's the first thing a man does

when he starts cheating. He starts
working out. I should know. Clint was in

best shape of his life when I found out
he was screwing a pharmacist.

I'm sorry. I didn't want to tell you.

Garrett hated going to the gym. I saw
him pass by the landing every time I

worked the early shift carrying a gym
bag.

What gym bag?

What exactly was Garrett doing with this
boat?

Running drugs? Last night he said he
screwed something up. He said, I have

rest. I'll just, I'll give her the rest.
Yes. The rest of what?

He didn't say.

It was either drugs or money.

With the gym bag.

Do you think it's still here?

What are we supposed to do?

Is this the hand we've been dealt, Dan?

So we play it.

Finders keepers.

I had double cream.

You rock.

And that oat latte?

I didn't know you delivered.

I don't, but I wanted to talk to you.

Guess what I'm doing Friday night?

What?

It's none of your business.

I won't ask about yours, and you don't
have to ask about mine.

I'm not looking for a new Bessie. I've
got loads.

What I'm looking for is a decent tenant,
and a tenant who's also a cop.

Bonus. Plus, my suite is completely self
-contained. You won't even know I

exist. Until you run out of coffee, and
then, by all means, please feel free to

knock on my door.

Thanks so much for coming in, Chief.

I know you're a busy man.

I'm about to get busier.

Take it as a compliment.

Your success rate in solving major crime
investigations?

Superb. So we can now streamline
regional policing at significant cost

efficiencies. So Earls Cove, Powell
River, Madera Park, Corpus Bay, all

of their police departments will answer
to you now.

They'll take care of the day -to -day
issues, of course.

Traffic, complaints, minor issues. But
you will coordinate major

Well, for that, I'm going to need
additional staff.

Of course.

Preliminary estimates based on
historical crime rates.

A man who comes prepared.

Population's growing.

I'm already down one officer.

We're maxed.

Tell me what you need.

Six additional officers.

Six? Minimum.

I would love to just say yes.

But? My problem is competing priorities.

Councilwoman Lee, for example, wants a
major bump in arts funding.

The founder can be compelling, as I'm
sure you know. Well, arts funding,

your concern, not mine.

Everyone's concerned.

I think I can leverage you for new
officers.

For? That'll help, but... But the thing
is, I'm going to need your help first.

Cassandra is wonderful, energetic,
idealistic.

But we have practical exigencies to
consider. This new

art center dream, for example, is
costly.

However, if you can get her to back
off... Excuse me?

Then I am almost sure I can get you four
extra officers.

Oh, you help me, I help you, we help
each other.

The Gibsons way.

My sergeant, I gotta take this. Oh,
well, then off you go.

Please, keep up the good work.

Hey, Sid.

Hey, how'd it go with the mayor?

She may be a challenge.

What have you got?

The boat.

Garrett bought it at a dealer in
Everett, paid cash.

That's a lot of cash.

Man, his name, narcotics investigations
past two years, nothing's pumped.

Well, who says it's local? Narcotics
investigations are usually

Cartels, bikers.

I'll check with the bigger PDs. Try
Richmond or Vancouver.

I got a friend in Seattle.

Tracking dogs picked up Garrett's trail
in the woods and followed it to the

western edge of town. And we got a hit
of CCTV footage from yesterday morning.

The walking dead.

Behind Gibson's Park Plaza at 6 .12 a
.m. Good work.

Oh, it gets better, Chief.

Security cam footage at a gas station.

Wes Gibson, 20 minutes later.

Well, that looks like a planned meeting.

License plate matches to a local owner,
Susan Baylor.

Ms.

Baylor? Mm -hmm. I'm Chief Auburn. This
is Corporal Jackson.

We have questions to ask you about Gary
Walker.

The contractor?

Why?

I'm afraid he's dead.

That's awful.

What happened?

How did you know Gary Walker?

I hired him to redo my stairs last
summer.

When's the last time you saw him?

August, when he finished my stairs.

That's my nephew.

Tony's staying with me.

Did you know Gary Walker?

Never heard of him?

I gotta get to the shop. I'm late for my
shift.

What shop's that?

Coast Auto Body.

Can I go now?

Sure.

Late last summer. That's the last time
you saw Garrett Walker?

Yes.

We have a CCTV footage of you and
Garrett meeting just outside a gas

yesterday morning.

Miss Baylor, we're gonna...

Had to ask you to come with us.

You may have been the last person to see
Gary Walker alive.

Except for the person who killed him.

Any idea who that might have been?

None.

All right, yeah, I met with Gary
yesterday.

Why would you lie about that?

We had an affair.

I knew he was married. I didn't feel
good about it.

So when he called me yesterday, I went.

But it was only so I could tell him it
was over.

I wanted to put you and Garrett
together.

What did you see in him?

You know, I'm not really sure.

And you didn't wonder yesterday morning
with the way he looked?

He said he'd gotten into a fight, wanted
to sleep it off at my house. I said no.

Look, I have no idea what happened with
Garrett.

I don't consort with murderers. I'm a
businesswoman.

You own a string of private ATMs and
some retail and service shops.

As I said, a businesswoman.

Chief, he said to interrupt if Seattle
called.

I went back ten years. No Garrett Walker
has ever been connected to a Seattle

drug smuggling investigation.

Sorry about that, chum. I know you
wanted more.

Wait, try the same search before Susan
Baylor.

I'll get right back to you on that.
Thanks. Take care, buddy.

You're crazy busy. I'm crazy busy.

But we have to eat sometime.

Good for you, John.

Lunch? If not, dinner.

Okay, breakfast.

My place or yours?

I saw the mayor this morning.

And?

She wants me to convince you to ditch
the art center.

Otherwise, no additional officers.

Unbelievable. I'm not going to do that,
obviously. But I'm in a spot, because I

got... I have four new towns to cover.

I'm understaffed already.

You could say no to the new
jurisdiction.

That's not my call.

Besides, you want it, don't you?

A chance to solve everyone's crimes.

Okay. Well, listen.

It'll swear itself out. I'll find a way
to bring the mayor around. I know.

Christy Holman.

Meaning?

You don't know what you're up against.

Just wait.

Okay. Hey, boss. Oh.

Sorry, Sandra.

Don't be.

Layla's found something.

I'll see you later. Yeah.

I took a look at Susan Baylor's business
holdings in addition to the stores and

ATM. She's also the sole owner of Coast
Auto Body.

Except it might be someone else's shop.

Sarge knows them.

Rennie Curvers.

He's the manager.

He used to be a full -patch biker.
Presumably still is. Those guys never

retire. They just get too old to ride.

Now suppose Garrett Walker was doing
favors for the bikers. Run in.

Drugs, money.

He screws up, calls Susan Baylor for
help. She meets up with him and tells

to get lost.

Well, she tells him to lie low, she'll
handle it. And then calls Curvers. Yeah,

go talk to him. Okay.

Charlie, what do you got for me?

That's not anywhere.

Not here either.

Sid Sokolovsky.

Looking good, bud.

In a minute, Curvers. And it's Sergeant
Sokolowski, or sir.

We've been talking to the owner.

Miss Baylor? Sure.

She's the owner on record, anyway.

Which means her name is clean. No
criminal convictions, unlike you.

Now, how did she wind up in business
with a full -patch biker?

Gave up that life years ago, Sarge. Sure
you did. What can you tell us about

Garrett Walker?

Walker? He worked for Millie ten years
ago.

He's good with his hands. When was the
last time you saw him? Can't remember.

Of course.

Where were you Sunday morning?

Seven to noon.

Tony, get out of here.

Sunday morning, huh?

Don't think I was in church, Sarge.

Now, Tony and I, we went fishing.

Ain't that right, T?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Anything else?

I'm going to get a warrant.

Come back. Search the premises.

Good luck with that.

What the hell is that?

Bogolowski.

She what?

I'll be right there. Serge?

Liza's school. I gotta go.

Oh, you have got some nerve. You drag me
down.

You leave me sitting in this tiny
little... I'm calling from Seattle.

Tell me about your biker connections.

My what? Do I look like I hang around
bikers to you? Your business partners

Ronnie Curvers.

He runs a shop for me, so what?

Your nephew works for him. Saw the gear
walk a few years back. All connected.

It's a small town. For God's sake.
Garrett's boat was paid for in cash.

Easy when you have a cash business like
private ATMs.

Here's what I think.

Garrett ran dirty money from Seattle to
Gibson's.

Biker cash to be laundered through your
businesses.

But Garrett screwed up.

He gambled away some of the money.

Got clubbed over the head, stuffed in
the trunk of his car.

What, you think I did that?

No.

But he called you first thing the next
morning.

How am I doing so far?

I think it's an entertaining story.

I think you told him you don't.

Go to the boat and lay low.

And then you called Rennie Curvers.

Seattle Financial Crimes have had you on
their radar for two years now, you and

Curvers.

You're bluffing. It's all coming down,
Susan.

Which one of you gets smart and cuts a
deal?

If I'm in your shoes, thank God I'm not.

I don't go down for 25 years for
running, Curvers.

Freda.

Will you give us the police? Are you
insane?

No, we need to go.

No more waiting.

We need that money now.

Take Ted or go to the house.

If anyone's there, you deal with them.

People are looking for that. I know
that. Serious people.

Garrett worked for bikers. We don't know
that. The hell we don't.

Dan, the tune bank, full of cash.

Enough to start new lives.

I don't want to start a new life.

You do.

And so do I.

This is our ticket.

But we have to go.

Now.

Let's get a unit to the Walker house.

Is Sid back?

Not yet.

Something came up. I think his daughter.

What is it?

Jack.

Two women.

There's this place in New Mexico. It's
off -grid and it's gorgeous. Me and

went there before I figured out it was a
pig. But that's where we'll go.

We'll start fresh. Marita, have we
thought this through? We both deserve

But the money... The money belongs to
us.

Marita.

Do not answer that.

Denise, it's Chief Auburn.

Uh... Someone's following us. Two
bikers.

Where are you?

Don't tell him that. We're going east on
the 104 past Miller Bay Road.

A duffel bag of money.

I brought it for you from the trunk.

See you and your sister at the station.

Seemed like such a good idea.

No, Mar, it didn't.

Are we okay?

I mean, our bots are looking at two,
three years in jail. No, aside from

Golden.

Rennie Kerbers has been cussing
downstairs.

Good work. Hey, boss. Can I get you for
a minute?

Is everything okay? Yeah, I just want to
apologize. I'm sorry. You needed me

here. No, we've got to wrap. No worries.

Layla told me the lies of school called.

Showed up drunk.

And then now she's suspended.

And I was... I really thought we had
turned this corner.

Say, go home.

No, you need me here. They need you
there.

We'll manage.

I'm all the girls.

Liza and I had the best relationship. We
were the closest.

I'm so angry with myself. I let her down
somehow. I don't know, but I did.

The hell you did.

That's not something you do to anyone.

Go home, Sid.

These are great.

Thank you.

I can't wait to see what you come up
with.

Neither can I.

Well, when the project is finished, you
might want to consider an exhibit.

At the library, maybe.

Hey, Dad, there's half a pot of mac and
cheese on the stove if you're hungry.

Starving.

The mayor.

God bless you. You know, somebody should
put up a stand for you.

I have been thinking since you told me.

Well, good. So you're going to do what
she wants?

All hope abandoned. You enter here.

You're not backing down either. Heck no.

But realistically, we may have to
compromise.

Speak for yourself.

But it's okay. We'll survive.

That's why I wanted to tell you,
whatever happens, whatever gets said,

through it. Deal?

Deal. Okay.

Okay.

Then bring it on.
