ALEC ALEXANDRA CARTOON_CHARACTER CONNIE CROWD CURATOR ELIOT FLETCHER HARRY JENNY NEIGHBOR NEWSCASTER PARKER PEOPLE PROTESTOR RIZ_MAN SOPHIE TODD HARRY You see, my whole life, I've prided myself on never picking a side. I'll help you hide the hundred million. Look at that. You think this was my first choice? It's insane! Cole's dead? I have to take something. SOPHIE Please, will you stop? SOPHIE Grifter. ELIOT Hitter. ALEC Hacker. PARKER Thief. PARKER We found other people who heard about us and were doing the same thing, so we recruited them. Now we have twelve active teams. ALEC Leverage International. PARKER And no shortage of rich bad guys. SOPHIE Sadly not. PARKER Hardison says it's because we live in the worst timeline. ALEC Well, we do. Hey. To Nate, yeah? One year gone but never forgotten. ELIOT To Nate. He was self-righteous. He was arrogant. I swear to God he made it up half the time, but... I miss the hell out of him. To Nate. Hey, no. Dude. You're a lightweight, man. I'm not carrying you out of here. PARKER Eliot and I do most of the traveling so he can check on his meat wagons. ELIOT Food trucks, Park. It's food trucks, all right? Started a chain of food trucks. Jobs for folks that get out of the military. It's good for them. It's a fresh start. PARKER But mostly we're just supervising the other crews. I can't remember the last time I was in an air vent. I miss vents. ALEC Hey, we built vents in the house so you could spend time in them. PARKER But I know those vents. There's nothing like the feeling of sliding into a hot, strange vent. To strange vents. ALEC Mm-hm. SOPHIE Why are you staying at home? ALEC You know, just working with refugee groups. Coordinating food drives to resettlement camps, getting medicine to aid workers. George Clooney's satellite that tracks all the war crimes? It's all software. Somebody's gotta run it. Age of the geek, baby. ELIOT Age of the geek, baby. PARKER Age of the geek. ALEC What about you though, hm? How you doing since, uh... you know. SOPHIE You know, I've just been doing this and that. PARKER Because you stopped returning our calls. ELIOT was very worried. ELIOT It's not... We were all... I'm gonna cut this with some food. Hey, I'll tell you what. I'll whip up some brunch for us right now. SOPHIE Eliot, my cupboards are bare. And you guys, you've got a plane to catch. ALEC Oh, no, no, no. I'll run to the store. PARKER Yeah-- SOPHIE Could you just stop? Just stop. PARKER We should steal something. ALEC That's it. That is it. That is it. That's it. SOPHIE No. I haven't... It's been years. ELIOT Sophie. This might be a nice distraction for you. ALEC Nearest art gallery? PARKER Boston Museum of Art. One point nine miles away. Just upgraded to a Glenn- Rieder Mark Four system. What?! CROWD Hey, hey, ho, ho! Fletcher's art has got to go! Hey, hey, ho, ho! Fletcher's art has got to go! PROTESTOR Maxwell's a murderer! He's a murderer! ELIOT All right, I count two guards in each gallery. PARKER See anything you like, Sophie? ELIOT I'm gonna go secure the exits. ALEC Hey, man, if you happen to find some water or some aspirin... ELIOT I told you, man! SOPHIE It's been eight years since I've done this. I need a sec. I can't do this. ( exhales ) FLETCHER No. This is ridiculous. This is idiotic. FLETCHER You're being an idiot. Don't walk away from me. The issues around my family have nothing to do with the art, my art. Why would you remove my name from the brochure? CURATOR I would think the protestors would make that clear. FLETCHER Do you want me to pull my Rembrandt from this show? Because I will. Harry? This is one of my lawyers. Fix this. HARRY Well, unfortunately the terms of your contract preclude removing the piece mid-show, but we can cancel the next donation. CURATOR Actually, we no longer want your money. FLETCHER Oh, you don't? You don't want my money? I've sponsored this museum for over a decade. I rebuilt that damn gallery! I'm calling the board right now. SOPHIE He's a treat. HARRY Well, the Maxwell family has donated millions of dollars to art museums around the world. Mr. Maxwell values his reputation as a collector above all else. SOPHIE Remind me, how did the Maxwell family make their fortune? Opioids, right? Wasn't it? HARRY Not one of the protestors, are you? SOPHIE I'm just here for the art. PEOPLE HARRY This is Mr. Maxwell's piece. SOPHIE Oh. HARRY You know, before he owned it, it was stolen. Back in, um... SOPHIE Two thousand and two. London. On a beautiful spring day. It was a bit of a rush job, really. SOPHIE No. ELIOT Hey. Um... Sorry if we pushed you to come here. It's just, we are worried. SOPHIE Not now. You're not gonna believe what's happening here. PARKER Oh, yeah. Somebody cut the cameras. They're gonna steal that Rembrandt. Probably set off the fire alarms for cover. So anyway, my psychologist says that-- SOPHIE Your psychologist? PARKER Dr. Novik. We helped her save some abused kids so she pays me back in services. ALEC Three. SOPHIE Two. PARKER One. SOPHIE I'm sorry, you're seeing a child psychologist? ALEC She likes the puppets. PARKER So much anger. HARRY People, people. There's no need to panic. Just head right for the exits. Right this way. SOPHIE Here we go. HARRY That's right. HARRY This is not what it looks like. SOPHIE 'Cause it looks like you're stealing a Rembrandt. And you've got a two-minute window, tops. Hurry on. HARRY Are you not gonna call? You want me to keep... Who are you? SOPHIE Who are you? PARKER Wilson, lawyer. HARRY That my wallet? ALEC Well, I hope so. It's got all your credit cards in it. Undergrad, Tulane. Oh, he's a New Orleans boy. Okay, law school, Harvard. Works at a New Orleans law firm. Your client list... Ooh. These are not good people. Harry, you work for some bad people. You shady. SOPHIE Hardison, he cut the cameras, but we should probably wipe footage of everyone in the gallery. ALEC I'm on it. Babe, give me a hardwire tap into the gallery Wi-Fi. SOPHIE She does that. Ooh. Looping the magnetic detector. I like that. I don't know that technique. Where'd you learn that? HARRY YouTube. SOPHIE Oh, dear. Exit strategy with those gates down? Ah. SOPHIE Employee access corridor. Nice. Parker. HARRY Is that my watch? SOPHIE He's not gonna learn unless he does it himself. HARRY Not gonna learn what? PARKER You have to check for weight triggers in the support wire. SOPHIE You were doing so well. He was doing so well, right? ALEC No, he wasn't. You know he's going to prison forever. SOPHIE Leave the painting. HARRY Leave the painting? SOPHIE The painting. HARRY The painting. SOPHIE We have to go. Right now they're overriding the fire alarm doors, the police are on their way, and an enterprising employee's gonna come running through your escape route. HARRY Well, can I at least get my--my-- my wallet. SOPHIE Where's Eliot? SOPHIE He's securing the-- ALEC Securing the exits. SOPHIE Well, now you're gonna have to carry him. ELIOT What? SOPHIE You wanted a distraction. He's the distraction. ELIOT Hardison, get the left side. I'll take the right. ALEC You hit him. ELIOT Hardison! Damn it, Hardison. ALEC Yeah, we caught him trying to steal one of the Rembrandts. ELIOT So he's a thief? SOPHIE No. I'm not sure what he is. Lawyer Mr. Wilson. Mr. Wilson. HARRY Sorry, I was just doing the math. I think we could protect about a hundred million dollars. You'll have to pay out the rest in settlements. FLETCHER No, no. I'm not settling anything. I am a doctor. I'm a patron of the arts. I'm not a drug dealer. My family makes medication for sick people. It's not our fault a bunch of addicts took advantage. HARRY You're omitting the bit where for eight years you misled thousands of doctors and patients about how addictive your opioid mixture was. FLETCHER Well, that's an exaggeration. HARRY You made cartoons. CARTOON CHARACTER I make the ouchie go away. HARRY There's memos. In that one, you talk about how much money you make selling drugs to wounded veterans. FLETCHER Where did you get this? HARRY Well, that doesn't matter. What matters is that the attorneys general from the seven states that are about to sue you, they have it. Now, my firm can help you hide some of your money, but you will pay out the rest, or, as outlined in this report, you're facing years of costly litigation against these media-friendly victims. If you agree, I'll help you hide the hundred million, and I'll seek out each of the litigants, and I'll talk them into settling. FLETCHER All right. You come very highly recommended. I'm glad to have you on my side. HARRY Oh, I'm not on anybody's side. I'm a lawyer. Cole Hoskins? My name's HARRY Wilson. I'm here to talk to you about your lawsuit with Libris Pharmaceuticals. JENNY Cole. Cole. HARRY Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. JENNY Go inside. I'll handle it. I'm his sister Jenny. I have power of attorney. The limp's from an IED outside Bagram. HARRY What about the power of attorney? JENNY After his third stint in rehab. Know any reason I don't beat you myself? HARRY Libris Pharmaceuticals wants to settle. JENNY Your medication turned my brother into an addict. HARRY Not my medication. Those are the people my firm represents. We've convinced Maxwell to pay out. But I gotta go back down there and tell him that you'll... put down the shovel, so to speak. JENNY We used to own a house, you know. Belonged to my grandparents. Had to sell the second time he was in rehab. HARRY Well, I promise you'll have enough to buy it back. I'll even help you with the paperwork. JENNY You bank a lot on that sweet-looking face, don't you? HARRY You have my word. And done. Now, only use these codes to move the money you want completely secure. As to our plan for the settlement... ( clears throat ) FLETCHER Oh, we're not settling anything. I'm not letting a bunch of nobodies ruin the Maxwell name. HARRY Um, I thought I explained, you're gonna spend millions of dollars litigating this for years. FLETCHER Millions I have. Years they don't have. No, you--you laid it out so beautifully right here. If I tie them up in court, eventually they're gonna settle or quit. Hell, because you got most of them to consider settling, I even know how much to lowball them. Now, when I spend the next decade donating to museums around the world, sharing the gift of my art, no one is gonna remember a bunch of penny-ante settlements strung out over years. These problems are gonna be forgotten, and my name will live on in those museums forever. Honestly, Harry, I... I could not have done this without you. Have a good day. SOPHIE So you felt guilty. HARRY My whole life, I prided myself on never picking a side. But I began to think all those years, maybe... maybe I had. ALEC Better late than never, I guess. ELIOT Lightweight. See? ALEC Hey, don't. Do not. Say, man, why didn't you just go for all his money? HARRY No. I'm the one who made it impossible to access. Bank of Malta. Voice passwords that change every twenty-four hours. Mm-mm. Besides... SOPHIE You wanted to hurt him. You know the money doesn't matter to him. The art does. HARRY He's got famous paintings hanging in galleries in Los Angeles, Chicago, New York... Eight museums all around the country, all with his name on the walls. That's all he talks about. ELIOT No, that's not right. It's not about the art. It's about this guy's name. That's what matters. SOPHIE It's his lost reputation. At the museum, he wasn't just angry. He was afraid. He thought he bought legitimacy, and he can feel it slipping away. And nothing hurts like feeling you're safe and then... having that taken away from you. PARKER So, are we gonna help this guy, or are we gonna bonk him on the head, Hardison wipes his ID and credit rating and we dump him in Venezuela? HARRY I'd like to vote no on that. ALEC You don't get a vote. Sit your ass back down. SOPHIE No. No. I'm retired. I haven't been on the con for years. PARKER But you spotted him prepping his heist without even trying. ALEC Yeah, you should have seen your face when you realized. You lit up. ELIOT Sophie, you're the one that made us bring him here. All right? Instead of leaving him for the guards. ALEC Hey, get the gang back together Star Trek style. ELIOT Even numbers only, baby. I can't believe I know that. HARRY Uh, excuse me. If I may... I think I've deduced that you are a group of thieves who were at the museum not to steal the Rembrandt. SOPHIE Who here hasn't already stolen a Rembrandt? PARKER Got three. Hat trick. HARRY But now that you've heard that the owner is vermin, you will help me ruin him? ELIOT You want our help or not? HARRY I can trust you? SOPHIE Sorry. That's funny. ALEC You can trust us on this? Probably. SOPHIE Hardison. We haven't even done background on the target. We don't know the mark. ALEC Are you trying to tell me you don't think you can cold read this Maxwell dude, Sophie? I once saw you predict a mark's weakness off of his driver's license photo. Come on, now. SOPHIE Maxwell knows his philanthropy can't outrun his scandals. You saw those protests. In theory... in theory... he's looking for the next big score. The one donation they can't take away from him that's gonna drown out all the negative press. HARRY Well, any man who's insecure about his name can never turn down an opportunity to be a hero. ALEC That's not bad, new guy. A hero-level donation. Stolen painting. SOPHIE A stolen lost painting, one specific to him, to hook him. A lost Rembrandt. A lost Rembrandt. Nate. Nate worked the case. Every insurance investigator has at some point. It's the white whale. The Gardner Heist. PARKER Highly overrated. Strong results, but amateur technique. ALEC Nate was still on Vista. What kind of ancient historical foolishness is this? ELIOT Nineteen-ninety, a bunch of thieves broke in and stole, like... PARKER Thirteen. ELIOT Thirteen works of art from the Isabella Gardner Museum. SOPHIE Including a Vermeer and Rembrandt's Storm on the Sea of Galilee. SOPHIE Yeah, that's it, Hardison. It's the greatest unsolved art crime in the world. Anyone, no matter their sins, who was to find and return just one of these paintings would be a hero. HARRY Well, anyone who claimed to return one of these paintings that later turned out to be a fake, their name would be ruined in the art world forever. SOPHIE Quite right. ALEC It seems like you're already halfway to a plan there, Ms. Devereaux. Way ahead of us. SOPHIE We'll do this one. Just one. And we're gonna need our Mr. Wilson. ELIOT No, no. SOPHIE We're rushed. He's already an inside man. We can use that. PARKER Yeah, and we can bonk him on the head later if we have to. HARRY Uh, thank you. That doesn't seem right. ALEC Hey, Sophie, come on. Say it. You know you have to. SOPHIE Let's go steal a stolen Rembrandt. PARKER Yes! ELIOT That's my girl. SOPHIE Whew. HARRY What just happened? SOPHIE So according to our Mr. Wilson, Maxwell is obsessed with these Monet sculptures, so there's no need to pressure him. You just ease into it. PARKER Sophie, I've been the roper for the last eight years. SOPHIE Yes. Yes, of course you have. PARKER And don't worry. I haven't stabbed anybody in a really long time, like a whole month. SOPHIE Parker, a month's not very long. PARKER It is when you're the one not doing the stabbing. FLETCHER Yes, my name is still on the wall, but they took it out of the brochure, and it is not on the placard. PARKER Yes, yes, it's a private auction, but we still need certification. FLETCHER I'm gonna call you back. PARKER You've got to be kidding me. Well, then find me another expert on Monet's collection. Well, it's invitation-only for a reason. They're the rarest pieces. ALEC Y'all better not be scratching my baby. ELIOT So we're not painting fakes anymore? We're printing them? ALEC Man, we gotta keep up with the times. Hey, go on and start that thing up. Go ahead. ELIOT Are you kidding me? ALEC I am not, sir. Yeah, see, this is my baby, all right? This is the 3-D printer I use for all my forgeries. And check it, there's this dope AI program from the Netherlands, right? I used that to teach this how to duplicate brushstrokes from great artists. I'm talking about masterpieces in four hours. HARRY Been doing this a long time? ALEC Oh, yeah. Since I was a kid. ELIOT Yeah, since he was an annoying, cocky kid that almost got us killed all the time. ALEC I was cocky because I was good. You were just cranky. HARRY And then you decided to help people. ALEC I didn't start out that way. I mean, I was really in it for the rep, PARKER for the cash. ELIOT I had anger issues I needed to work out. HARRY What changed? What happened? ALEC Uh... Us. We happened. ELIOT The only thing that stays the same is he gets the easy job. So a masterpiece in four hours. ALEC Excuse me? Did he just say e-e-easy? Bruh, I gotta fake a masterpiece from 1633. Not only does the painting have to look identical, the materials I use have to be identical. I'm talking about the canvas, the paint. You want to know where Rembrandt got his paints? Come on, come on. Excuse me, bro. Bro, watch out, watch out. Get a little history on this, brother. ALEC A'ight, see, Rembrandt got his yellow from soil only found in Cyprus. ALEC His blue from a stone from one mountain in Afghanistan. ALEC He got the red from these nasty little crunchy lice off a damn cactus in Mexico. ELIOT I got a sniper in Afghanistan. He can get you the rocks. I got a mob driver in Cyprus. He can get you the soil. I got a guy in Mexico owes me a favor. ALEC Oh, you--you know somebody who's nasty enough to pick lice off a damn cactus with his bare hands? ELIOT Yeah. It's a big favor. They asked him to dig his own grave, and I saved his life. HARRY How'd you do that? ELIOT I told 'em the check had cleared. The man could stop digging. ALEC Uh-uh. Mm-mm. ELIOT Canvas I can't help you with. ALEC All right. New guy, check the storage unit. HARRY Whew. Are these all stolen masterpieces in this closet? ALEC Don't be ridiculous, man. If they were stolen masterpieces, they'd be in that closet. Just check the dates on the back, man. Get me something from the 1630s that I can strip. HARRY Look. ALEC That's the one. PEOPLE ELIOT Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! No, no. Uh-uh. Y'all gotta get all this stuff out of here. TODD This stuff is going to auction in a few minutes. ALEC Hey, hey, is there a problem? TODD Yes, this man is... Who are you? ALEC The collection coordinator. Look, as Ted said-- ELIOT It's Todd. ALEC Todd. Todd. As Todd said, all this is going to auction in minutes. ELIOT Yeah. Y'all hear that high-pitched whistle? Your jockey pump failed. All right? Water's gonna come bursting out of these pipes at about 300 psi. TODD Is that bad? ELIOT Son, that's enough to tear a baby's arm off. ALEC Todd, a baby or, like, a toddler? ELIOT I don't know. Maybe a toddler. Maybe one of those pre-Ks. TODD What an unsettling metaphor. ELIOT Well, y'all can ride it out if you want, but if I was you, I'd try to get up underneath one of them big metal tables or something. TODD No, no, no. Get all this stuff out of here. Come on. Now! Now. Let's go. ALEC Hey, whoa. Hey, Todd. Todd. The auction must go on. TODD I take full responsibility for the safety of my people, and this art. ELIOT Well, there's a lot of pipes in the hallway, too, so you might want to just keep on going. ALEC Perhaps all the way down to the loading garage. SOPHIE Okay, places, everybody. He's coming. PARKER And item forty-four is sold for four hundred and seventy-five thousand dollars. Which brings us to our last item, a plaster minotaur by Rodin, once owned by his friend Claude Monet. PARKER This is a rare piece from the Musée Marmottan Monet in Paris that will only enhance its owner's collection and reputation. Let's start the bidding at one million. Do I have one point one? One two? One three? Do I have one three? One four. One eight. Two million. Do I have two point one? FLETCHER Two point five. PARKER Two point five million is the bid. Do I have two six? Going once. Twice. The item is sold, for two point five million. PARKER That concludes our auction for today. On behalf of Sommersby's, thank you all for coming. ELIOT Could have faked that minotaur and walked away with a nice painting. SOPHIE Nate never settled for nice. PARKER Looks like I have a minotaur. PARKER Yes, and... Oh. I'm afraid I can't sell this to you. FLETCHER Is there a problem? PARKER Your name has been flagged, Mr. Maxwell. Illiquidity. FLETCHER Really? I'll just call my bank right now. PARKER I'm afraid that's not the issue. The seller doesn't want his piece seized in a future lawsuit or bankruptcy. ELIOT Pardon me, do you have a deadbeat bidder here, because... Oh, no. You have fletcher Maxwell. More than a deadbeat. He's a drug dealer. FLETCHER Okay, this actually has nothing to do with-- ELIOT Now, I should demand a recount, okay, but since my guy's up here throwing blanks, I'll take it for two million. FLETCHER You're gonna pay for this. ELIOT Well, I can pay. Yeah, my money's good here. FLETCHER I don't care. Tell me how to find whoever flagged me. ELIOT This was a waste of my time. SOPHIE Mr. Gallagher, the Rodin is a rare one. The price that you put in for it-- ELIOT I don't care about the price, okay? I want big ticket items. Stop putting together these little penny-ante auctions or I'll send you back to that museum in Cleveland where I found you! FLETCHER Excuse me. FLETCHER Excuse me. ELIOT Come on. I gotta get back in there. PARKER No. She's sophie Devereaux. FLETCHER Are you okay? SOPHIE I, uh... Yes. Thank you. FLETCHER Is your boss always so charming? SOPHIE Oh. He has his good days. FLETCHER I'm fletcher Maxwell. SOPHIE Katherine Clive. FLETCHER Are you a Monet fan, Katherine? SOPHIE A fan? Well, he's my specialty. Why? FLETCHER 'Cause I think I have a business proposition for you. Can you be at my place around seven? No, it's completely professional, I assure you. SOPHIE I'll be there. FLETCHER Great. SOPHIE That was... exhilarating. ELIOT Yeah. I never doubted you. PARKER Yes, you did. FLETCHER Yeah, I need you to do a full security check on someone. Everything about them. Everything. FLETCHER You know your haystacks. SOPHIE You know, I stayed in Monet's house. I just had to see the light the way he did. FLETCHER How can you stand to be around that boss of yours? SOPHIE He got me out of Cleveland. FLETCHER Cleveland. Yes, that's twice I've heard that. The Cleveland Museum of Art's really more known for its Egyptian and Asian art, isn't it? SOPHIE You know, I've never had dinner with... FLETCHER With personal security? Unfortunately, a lot of unreasonable people blame my family for their own-- ugh-- misfortunes. Everyone's suspect. You see, I had someone do just a little bit of checking up on you. SOPHIE I don't like people poking into my personal affairs. HARRY Well, you're not required to like me. Ms. Clive has an excellent reputation with Impressionist collectors, but her research at Oxford was in Egyptian antiquities. She is one hundred percent legitimate. The boss, on the other hand... FLETCHER Hmm. Will Gallagher. His father was Irish mob. HARRY Who left his son a very corrupt trucking business when he died. Page three. You'll see that Gallagher's been suspected of being behind numerous high-price blind sales at auctions worldwide. SOPHIE You know I can't confirm that. FLETCHER These purchases don't make any sense. It's like he's almost buying at random. Why? SOPHIE I should go. This was a mistake. FLETCHER No, no, no, no, no, no. How would you like to oversee my Monet collection? I'll give you full control. The job's yours. I just need you to be honest with me about Will Gallagher. SOPHIE All right. If you'd never bought a piece of art in your life, and you suddenly tried to sell one for forty million dollars, then that would raise a few red flags, wouldn't it? HARRY The IRS would hound you to the grave. SOPHIE But if you already owned a collection worth twenty million, and you made it look like you flipped it for forty in a series of blind sales, then that would make you a savvy collector, wouldn't it? HARRY Why would he do that for a painting? And what previously unknown painting is worth forty million dollars? SOPHIE One that his gangster father stole thirty years ago. FLETCHER His father's Boston Mob? The Gardner Heist? Um, is it... SOPHIE The Rembrandt. FLETCHER How would you like to help me screw your ungrateful thug of a boss? SOPHIE You enjoying yourself? ELIOT I gotta get my trucking company up and running before Maxwell gets here. SOPHIE I told him the banks are about to seize your property. You're broke and you have to sell. ELIOT All right. HARRY Do I even want to ask to whom this building actually belongs? No? I didn't think so. ELIOT You know, this character you got me playing, the son of a Boston gangster, it's... no secret who you wrote this one for. You know, we never... we never really got to talk. If you ever want to... discuss... SOPHIE I think this is my way of talking about it. Through this. HARRY Nathan Ford? SOPHIE Choose your next words very carefully, Mr. Wilson. HARRY I saw his name on a document, I made some calls. Frankly, the stories are... incredible. SOPHIE He was a very brilliant, very angry man. HARRY May I ask? SOPHIE For a while, his family contained his anger and... then his son died, and he turned the anger on himself. When we worked together, it drove him, and he was relentless. Then he stopped being angry. But the damage was done. His heart burned too hot for too long. HARRY Well, I'm sorry. SOPHIE Don't be. At least he burned. FLETCHER Will Gallagher. Remember me? ELIOT Yeah, I remember you. You here looking for customers for your pain pills? Lot of bad backs in here. FLETCHER Actually, you're the one selling. And I very much want to buy. I'm talking about the Storm on the Sea of Galilee. Mm-hm. Your curator works for me now. I guess I outbid you on her, too. ELIOT Well, I got a lot of other buyers lined up. FLETCHER You don't. My lawyer, harry Wilson, he's already drawn up the evidence for the IRS. If you try to sell to anybody else, you're never gonna be able to save your shoddy little legacy. FLETCHER Relax. Relax. Painting's worth forty million and I'm gonna give you twenty-five. ELIOT You're gonna give me twenty-five million. FLETCHER Yes. You get to cover your very ill-advised art purchases, and you walk away with a nice profit. I'd take the win. ELIOT What are you gonna do with it? FLETCHER Oh, well, as a noted patron of the arts, I'm gonna give the painting back to the Isabella Gardner Museum as a public service to the lovely people of Boston. I'll be authenticating the painting at seven pm this evening. You get paid in full. PARKER You even made all the cracks from the paint aging. ALEC Yeah, I cooked it low and slow in the pizza oven. I made the cracks one by one using a ballpoint pen. PARKER Is that weird that I find all of that really attractive? ALEC I thank God every day that you do. ELIOT All right, get a room. I'm taking this. ALEC What, the... Wrap it first. ELIOT I know that, Hardison! SOPHIE Hmm. Nice. Eliot's food truck makes excellent cover. ALEC Oh, it's more than cover. ALEC It used to take a whole van. Now we can fit a mini-Lucille inside every food truck in the world. Please don't touch my stuff. HARRY Maxwell asked me to find an expert... to authenticate the painting. He'll buy it if you're with me. Wow. ALEC Yeah. Professor Michele Baptiste of the Sorbonne Art History Department, at your service. SOPHIE Oh. It's impressive how much better your accents have gotten. PARKER Pfft. ALEC Whatchu talkin' 'bout, girl? My accents have always been great. Baby, ain't they always been great? PARKER Sure thing. They always... Ooh. I gotta go... do that thing. Bye. ALEC Huh? HARRY Hello? FLETCHER Hey. It's Maxwell. No need for us to go to that meeting tonight. Mm-hm. I'm about to teach somebody a lesson. FLETCHER Maxwell just cancelled. ALEC Eliot, Maxwell cancelled. We're coming in. ELIOT Do not. Your cover ain't blown and I ain't down. You stay there. ALEXANDRA As I live and breathe. It is you. ELIOT I know you? ALEXANDRA Not personally. My company RIZ, we provide VIP security, cutting-edge data collection, threat analysis, blah, blah. I'll leave you a brochure. Your face didn't ping a single alarm. But I happened to glance at the file, and, well... I work in the field of violence. Not knowing ELIOT Spencer in our line of business, it's a bit like not knowing Rembrandt. You'll not be hustling Mr. Maxwell today. ELIOT So you've only read about me on paper. This a warning? ALEXANDRA Oh, no. It's an audition... for them. ELIOT Can we not do this? ALEXANDRA Ooh. Giving up already? ELIOT You got your boys two by two. I'm gonna start off with the guy on the left. I'm gonna send him into the big fella here and disrupt his attack line. By that time the guy on the right's gonna be on top of me, so I'm gonna dislocate his elbow, and use him to get closer to Taser boy. At that point Goldilocks should be coming around, but I'm gonna be too close to the beans, so he can't flank me. I'll move into the center and take them down one by one. The fight's already over. I'd just as soon skip the bruises. ALEXANDRA And now they're going to second guess every move they make, a fraction of a second hesitation negating their numbers. RIZ MAN Yeah? ELIOT Yeah. ELIOT Big guy's got potential. You can cut the rest. It's a lot faster in person, huh? Be seeing you. HARRY Well, maybe we can offer up another painting. SOPHIE No. Look, if Gallagher's blown, then I'm blown. This con is dead. ALEC Riz Security is one of those new, scary breed of ex-spy-for-hire firms. ALEC It's come up in the last ten years. They've got offices in London, Geneva, D.C. Damn, defense contracts? SOPHIE We've handled private security before. ALEC Mm-mm. No, no, no. These are the guys you call if you're a dictator and you want somebody disappeared. HARRY Yeah, these guys are past security. It's more like having your own private army. ALEC Smart thing to do would be to run. Put some space between us. You too. SOPHIE This is my home. This is our home. All of Nate's things are... ALEC And... SOPHIE Eliot! HARRY I didn't know! I didn't know! ELIOT Why should we trust anything coming out of your mouth?! How do we know this wasn't a setup? HARRY You think this was my first choice? It's insane! Obviously it's insane! Working with you people is insane. I tried. I tried to do the right thing, the right way. I wanted to make amends. I tried to track down everybody that Maxwell had... that I had hurt. HARRY Mr. Hoskins. Mr. Hoskins! NEIGHBOR They're gone. Been gone since the boy died. HARRY Cole's dead? NEIGHBOR Od'd. Hospital bills took what was left of Jenny's money. So the bank took the trailer. HARRY Where's Jenny? NEIGHBOR Don't know. You could try the women's shelter over on fifth. Maybe the overpass. Lot of homeless there. HARRY I gotta take something from him. If I... If I can't give them anything, and I can't be forgiven... I need to take something. I need to take something! FLETCHER Not at all. I'm pleasantly surprised. Mm-hm. HARRY You wanted to see me? FLETCHER So the... the funds will clear today. That's-- No, that's fantastic. Thank you. Yes, so my bank account routing number is thirty-seven-alpha-thirty-three, and the transaction password is two-two-one-six-four-eight-six-six. No, thank you. You've been incredibly helpful. All right, thank you. Buh-bye. Wow. That was my insurance company. They're going to be direct depositing a very comfortable payoff for the Rembrandt you burned. FLETCHER No, no, no. Harry. Come on. FLETCHER Someone wiped the security footage, Harry, so I can't prove it, but Gallagher was a fraud. That Clive woman's disappeared, so I'm kind of just left with you in the middle of all of this. FLETCHER Do you know how incredibly easy it would be to claim that you just broke in here, you're deranged, ranting about how I have to pay for my sins, because of all these deaths. Do you know what this gentleman will get if he shoots you in the head and then lies to the police? Time and a half. FLETCHER Excuse me. Yes? Mm-hm. All right. Sure. FLETCHER It's the museum. They're desperate to apologize for letting my masterpiece burn. I mean, obviously I'm gonna sue them, but... I can go listen to them beg. That'd be fun, right? Oh, and I called your firm, Harry. You're done. CONNIE And this was the residue test. CURATOR Mr. Maxwell... FLETCHER Please. Can I have a moment? To mourn. CURATOR Mr. Maxwell, this is Connie Lieu, from the insurance company. FLETCHER Hello. I just spoke to your people about my payout. I suppose you'll be joining me in suing the museum? CONNIE Why, exactly? FLETCHER You did just pay me a ginormous sum. I-I assume you'd like to recoup some of it. CONNIE Two things, Mr. Maxwell. First... CURATOR Why did you hire someone to burn a fake Rembrandt in my museum? FLETCHER What? CURATOR We tested the residue. It's a fake. ELIOT We're gonna need to come up with a Plan M. ALEC Why we gotta call it Plan M? You know my feelings about Plan M. HARRY You say this machine can duplicate any masterwork in four hours? ALEC Pretty much. HARRY Can you do that one? ALEC I like your style, new guy. Eliot, Plan S. For Hardison Survive, damn it. FLETCHER Pfft. No, no, no, no. No, no, no. I see what you're doing. No, it's a mistake. CURATOR You have no problem selling poison to people. I really don't put insurance fraud past you. CURATOR I bet you sold the painting, and then torched the fake to collect the insurance. FLETCHER Okay, Connie, that is ridiculous. I am fletcher Maxwell. I am a patron of the arts. Do you know that I have paintings hanging in all of the great museums in America? CURATOR Yes. I called the directors of all those museums to check your art, and Mr. Maxwell, we know they're all fakes. All of them. FLETCHER That's impossible. That is impossible. ELIOT What do you think about Harry's idea? SOPHIE I think why stop at one? You make eight. One for each of his paintings in the other museums. ALEC Well, sure, if I cut the print time in half, but they won't fool anybody. SOPHIE They don't have to. HARRY Wait a second, that's impossible. You're talking about breaking into eight of the highest-security museums in the country, swapping out eight masterpieces in twenty-four hours, that's... That's... Is she all right? ALEC Go ahead, babe. PARKER So... many... vents! ALEC Mm-hm. FLETCHER You take your hands off of me. I'm calling my lawyers. All of them. CONNIE Oh, Mr. Maxwell, I said two things. Second, my insurance company didn't give you a payout, so... who the hell were you talking to? You didn't give them your bank information over the phone, did you? FLETCHER That’s impossible. I just... FLETCHER What do you... what do you mean, "empty"? I just talked to you! No. I did not. I did not withdraw it. The... I with... Everything? What do you mean, "everything"? HARRY Hey! Thanks for letting me into your house! I just had to pick something up. SOPHIE Look on the bright side, Mr. Maxwell. You'll no longer be famous for being a drug dealer. You'll be far more famous for being the biggest fraud in the art world. ELIOT I believe that's the first time I've seen you smile. HARRY You know, I really wasn't too sure about the whole gloating thing, but you were right. Seeing his face was very cathartic. SOPHIE It's an acquired taste. I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed it myself. ALEC Hey, so, look. We found all the money that you hid for Maxwell, plus we sold the paintings to some, um... some of the homies. All right? Now we divvy that up between the families that he hurt. Won't make up for everything, but, uh... it'll make a difference. HARRY You didn't pay out to everyone? ALEC We couldn't find everyone. Oh, I'm sorry. Did you think you were done? Oh, if only you could find all the names. Then you could just move on. Harry, Harry. You didn't do just one thing wrong. You've been working on the wrong side for a long time, right? HARRY Yes, yes, I would have to say that. ALEC Yeah, so you don't get to just do one thing and claim you've repented. You see, in the Jewish faith... HARRY Jewish faith? ALEC My Nana leads a multi-denominational household, so... In the Jewish faith, repentance, redemption, is a process. You can't make restitution and then promise to change. You have to change first. Do the work, Harry. Then and only then can you begin to ask for forgiveness. You see that cowboy back there? Man, for the last twelve years I've seen him risk his life to save hundreds of innocent people who will never know his name, all that, and every single morning he still gets up, and you know what he says? I still got more to do. So this... This isn't the win. This is the start, Harry. HARRY He's not wrong. SOPHIE He's his father's son. NEWSCASTER the CEO of Libris Pharmaceuticals has become a fugitive. PARKER Maxwell pulled a runner. NEWSCASTER Maxwell was arrested earlier today on an array of charges including burglary and insurance fraud. NEWSCASTER Authorities say Maxwell fled his Beacon Hill estate hours after posting bail of two million dollars. ELIOT Where's he gonna go? The banks froze all his other assets. We have his secret money. He's done, right? HARRY We got almost everything. His family had one more emergency fund. It's not very much, but it's enough to disappear on. That's where he's going. ALEC Well, looks like we got more to do. HARRY The money's in Panama. He's going to Panama. We gonna go after him? PARKER Sophie? Your call. SOPHIE I said one job. But the job's not done. Grab your kit. We're going to Panama. HARRY Woof. ELIOT I got a tamale truck in Panama.
