Good morning. It's five minutes to six and it's a beautiful election day here

in Los Angeles.

In one hour, polls will open to decide if Joe Perry will get four more years,

or if Councilman Richard Dreyfuss will be the new mayor of the City of Angels.

According to the latest polls, Mayor Perry is predicted to win in a

landslide. But Councilman Dreyfus remains confident that a massive

conspiracy will finally come to fruition, toppling Perry and placing him

in the mayor's mansion by what can only be described as a coup d'etat.

Will you be voting today?

Vote in our online poll.

Will you be voting in our online poll?

Vote in our other online poll.

It is 6 o'clock, which means it's time for Stink Bomb and the Monkey Man.

After the target is eliminated here, we meet Pepper at the rendezvous point

here. Restroom's here.

Wetzel's Pretzel's here. Copy that.

And what if LAPD decides to, I don't know, shoot us?

The only person that Mayhem Global was afraid of was you.

But now you're with us, right? If I wasn't, would I have gotten this?

Yeah, that turned out well.

Package for 24601.

Tribeca? It's me.

Sign here.

Thank you.

This is gonna work.

The only question is, are you ready?

I never thought I'd be on the wrong side of the law.

But that's where I find myself.

Nothing's gonna change that.

This changes everything.

You've got a visitor.

Hello? Kathy?

Oh, there's no Kathy here. Sorry, wrong number.

Kathy? Hey, Dad.

Tribeca, good news. The mayor's gonna let you go.

Pardon me?

The mayor is gonna let you go.

Eddie Pepper's prints were all over the murder weapon. So the only question is,

whose side are you on?

Giles, I am 100% committed to being a good guy.

And I was about to bust out of here anyway, so this just saves a step.

I knew it. Let's go.

Jason?

Angela? Could I see you two in my office for a quick powwow? It'll only take a

couple of minutes.

Sure.

What's with him? No idea.

The mayor's life is in danger.

I'm having Tanner and Hoffman transport he and his wife to a safe house at an

undisclosed location.

Oh. Should we know where that is just in case we need to get in touch with each

other? It's really best if as few people know the location as possible. It's just

I have Tanner's inhaler and I would just be a little worried if he had an attack.

It's really safest if I'm the only one who knows. Got it. Got it.

What's the address?

Uh, 113... Nice try.

Tribeca, I'm putting you in charge of security at the Biltmore Hotel where the

mayor's gala will take place.

We're on high alert since Diane Duran escaped from prison.

She escaped?

When? About an hour ago.

Smuggled out in a laundry bin, hijacked a van, mesmerized the driver with her

beauty. She could be anywhere.

Guy, I'll see if you can pick up her trail and, uh, neutralize her by any

means available.

She does.

Forget about Duran. Keep an eye on Tribeca. I'm telling you, Lieutenant,

she's not crooked. The gym teacher checked her out this morning. We cannot

take a chance with the mayor's life. If she is in on this, you have to be

prepared to take her down.

You're asking me to choose between the woman I love and the mayor who, well,

quite frankly, has done a pretty crappy job of running the city the last few

years. Hey!

That is our mayor you're talking about. How would you like it if you heard him

saying mean things about you?

I'm talking to you. Pretty bad, I guess. Alright.

Go play.

thanks sir

What are you doing?

Tribeca. You tailing me? Not at all.

I'm here to look at ballrooms for my high school reunion.

Didn't you grow up in Chicago?

Good point. No one's going to drive all the way out here. Well, I'll see you

later. Let me guess.

The lieutenant told you to follow me to see if I'm dirty.

Let me let you in on a little secret.

I am dirty.

Extremely dirty.

Like you.

You seem different.

All women should go to prison.

Hey, get a room!

Front desk is that way.

Okay, city view or pool view?

Um, either one.

Uh, let's see. I'm gonna put you by the pool.

Smoking or non-smoking? Sure. For an additional $89, I can upgrade you to a

suite. Whatever's fastest.

The upgrade is fast.

Great. But it won't be ready till 3. No, no, no upgrade then. No upgrade.

I'm gonna need a credit card for incidentals, please.

Take it.

Oh, I see you're a rewards club member. Would you like to pay with points? No,

just charge it. You have 19,000 points.

Sir, please just give us a room.

Hurry up!

Okay, but if you pay with points, you're eligible for free continental breakfast.

Just give us a room!

That would be a basket of fresh pastries, a hot pot of tea or coffee,

and a glass of fresh squeezed juice. Sir, I cannot stress this enough. We

just want keys to a room. Okay. How many keys would you like? One key, right now.

Oh, boy. Key reader's gone on the fritz. Dale?

Okay, I clicked on 601, then star, enter, and then print. No, no, that's

the old system.

Why don't I help you folks here at my station?

Oh, my God!

So sorry about that. Here you go.

Lieutenant Atkins recommends that you all stay in the safe house until any

potential threats subsides.

How do we even know these threats are credible?

We have multiple sources who have corroborated the threats.

Oh dear, that's terrifying.

Sir, ma'am, your safety is our highest priority.

And this is the only place the department can assure you that nothing,

absolutely nothing will happen to you. Well, I think it's lovely.

Do you at least know who's behind all this nonsense?

We believe it's an organization called Mayhem Global headed up by an ex-cop

named Edward Pepper and a former FBI operative named Diane Duran who escaped

from prison this morning. So you know nothing.

Great. We don't fully understand their motive, but we do know that they're very

interested in Dreyfus' victory.

And one thing that they're not interested in is whether you live or

die. If anybody kills my husband, it's going to be me.

This is ridiculous.

You can't tell me what to do. I'm a grown mayor.

And today is my reelection.

I've got a vote to cast, and I've got a victory party to attend.

Mayor Perry doesn't cower in fear.

Come on, Katie.

Okay.

No!

How in the hell did they get to the safe house?

No idea.

But we moved the mayor to our Arby's, hoping for better luck.

We came as soon as we heard, and then we left for the precinct. I'm tired of

playing catch-up with these guys. We need a plan.

And we need one before the mayor casts his vote on live TV at that elementary

school. How about this for a plan? The mayor casts his vote on live TV at the

elementary school.

Um...

That's a great idea, Tribeca, but just for the heck of it, why don't we keep

brainstorming? No, don't you see?

It's perfect.

We do exactly what Pepper's expecting.

We put the mayor where Pepper wants him, and then when the mouse goes in for the

cheese, we spring the trap. He eats the cheese.

Unless someone's got a better metaphor, we go with Tribeca's plan.

I got something with the fox and the chicken guy on the bridge, but it's just

not coming together.

Let's move.

Hey.

I noticed the lieutenant was playing the guitar.

Okay. Calm down, Detective. You got the job.

They're totally buying it. Remind me to give Jenkins and her creature shop an

attaboy. Will do.

It's incredible, isn't it?

Try back at Tanner. The package is coming inside.

Walk back.

What's it look like?

Is it for me? The fake mayor we made.

I see him.

Wow. Jenkins really nailed it this time. Remind me to tell him what a creature...

Already on it.

And where's the actual mayor?

Completely safe inside that soft top Jeep over there.

Oh my god, oh my god. Well, now it doesn't even matter if he wins.

City's not paying for that.

Mr. Mayor, you're all right? Yes, fortunately I went to go get a shave ice

at exactly the right moment. A shave ice in this part of town?

Durian!

Don't eat that, it could be poison.

Jenkins.

How the hell did Pepper know that the mayor was in that Jeep?

He's obviously got someone inside the police department.

I didn't do it? God.

Go to the dark side one time and suddenly you're that guy. Well, I'm

tired of hiding.

I'm the mayor of Los Angeles. And as of 10 o'clock tonight, I'm going to be the

mayor of Los Angeles. So you do what you need to do.

I've got a victory gala to attend.

Hang on, Joe.

I'm taking personal responsibility for your safety.

Detectives. I'm counting on you to bring down Mayhem Global.

And until then, I'm not leaving the mayor's side.

Tribeca, I think you guys better get down here and see this.

I think I figured out why the lieutenant's been acting so strangely.

What the?

If the lieutenant is here, who's protecting the mayor?

It's Eddie Pepper.

He's gonna kill the mayor posing as a lieutenant.

Eddie Pepper's in there. He's gonna kill the mayor. We don't have much time.

Let's rock and roll.

LAPD, step aside. The mayor's life is in danger. I'm sorry. We received strict

instructions not to let any police officers in the ballroom. From who?

You. Like, half an hour ago when you were kind of a dick about it. Well, I am

reversing that and ordering you to let us in. You said you would try to reverse

the order and we should ignore you.

Damn it. I'm one step ahead of me.

Okay. Well, thanks anyway.

Good night, guys.

What was that?

We're just gonna give up? So, Dreyfus is the mayor. They're all the same anyway.

No, we're not just gonna give up.

Tanner, come with me. We're gonna find a back way in. You two, get in that

ballroom.

Sorry, folks.

LAPD. I'm gonna need to commandeer your outfits.

Works every time.

Chucky?

There's Duran. Get over here.

Oh, sorry. This is what screened through me. Ladies and gentlemen, the final

results of the election are in.

There's the mayor.

He's with Pepper. Second runner-up is Abraham McCheese with 2% of the vote.

First runner-up with 12% of the vote is Councilman Richard Dreyfuss.

You know what that means, folks. It gives me great pleasure to introduce to

you the former and next mayor of Los Angeles, Mayor Joe Perry.

Atkins, have you lost your mind? It's not safe for you in there, Mr. Mayor.

I'm afraid you're not safe here either, Mr. Mayor. What the hell is this?

Sir, the Lieutenant Atkins standing next to you is not the Atkins you've come to

know and love, but rather a rogue police officer who left the force ten years

ago.

Sergeant Eddie Pepper.

God, it's good to be young again.

Now, I'm gonna have to ask you to drop your weapons, or I'm gonna drop your

mayor. That's ridiculous. There's four of us and one of you.

Make that two of us.

Drop your weapons.

We did it, Eddie.

We got the mayor.

How does it feel?

Feels pretty damn good.

How does it feel now?

Diane, I don't mean to micromanage, but you just shot me, not the mayor.

Tribeca. Angie?

Don't worry, Eddie.

I shot you through the fleshy part of your abdomen where there's no vital

organs. You'll be fine.

You sure?

Wait, if you're Tribeca, then who's... who's this?

But you had sex with me.

That is so unethical.

I would be extremely upset if I were actually Giles.

You were a masterful lover.

Well, I thought you were Tribeca, so there was an added level of kink to it.

Then who did I tie up?

My twin brother, Eric.

Remember him from season one, episode four? No, I don't really follow the

show. I'm just doing a cameo for a friend.

Well, he was established.

Mom says aye.

I think there's one thing you all overlooked.

Mom? What?

You never call me.

And I thought it would be fun to do something together. Wait a minute. Then

where is Giles?

The bigger question is, Tribeca, what the hell is going on?

It all started in prison.

Duran and I were going over Pepper's plan for us to break out and help him

kill the mayor when a package arrived.

Giles had overnighted our baby to me as a reminder of how much I had to lose.

This changes everything.

I suddenly realized I wanted baby Angela to grow up in a world with right and

wrong. with good guys and bad guys, and a mother who could tell the difference.

I easily convinced Diane Duran to come back to the right side of the law, and

together we hatched a plan to stop Eddie Pepper before he could kill the mayor.

Hang on a second.

You easily convinced Diane Duran to come back to the right side of the law?

That sounds ridiculously implausible.

It's a little less implausible if you consider that she was on the right side

all along.

Wait, so then who ended up having sex?

So, Giles, that means you had my back all along.

It's a pretty great back.

So what do you think? You want to catch criminals and raise a baby?

Sounds good to me.

You all right?

I think I'm just slipping into shock.

Thank you.
