BRYL: Any weapons, we're bringing them
all back to the station.
You see? We got a wrecking crew, too.
Judge's stupid fucking diary
has got to be here somewhere.
TRENNELL: Did you stop
at an antique shop
- on the way back?
- SWEETY: It's Mansell's.
Thought he was slick stashing it here.
If this gun were to show itself,
- where does that leave me?
- CAROLYN: Turn it in.
Let's get this cracker
off our backs for good.
You're marrying Sandy Stanton?
Sandy's very close with her brother.
Apparently he wants to meet me first,
so I say fine.
MAUREEN: Mansell, Stanton,
and the Albanian kid
have been inside nearly an hour.
Should be wrapping up.

Oh, look who's here. The Hat
shows up when all the fun's done.
Heard there was a fender bender.
Yeah, these two got
themselves Beverly Hills Cop'd.
DPD tracked the vehicle
to one of the properties
a warehouse building in Corktown.
So we land, right?
We find a dozen goddamn Albanians
carrying homeboy on their shoulders
like Christ off the cross.
We roll up like,
"Hey, guys, what's crackin'?"
They say, "Go fuck yourselves.
He fell down the stairs."
That clumsy Jesus now?
MAUREEN: Yep, shattered leg,
broken in five places at least.
BRYL: Get him to implicate Mansell.
Get this prick off the street.
Get him for ag assault
if not murder, right?
Be a star. Come on.
MAUREEN: We don't get Mansell in lockup,
Albanians are gonna tear
shit up going after him.
They're gonna try to get
to Mansell through the girl.
Yeah. How we feel about that?
Anybody but us know
about Del Weems' place?
MAUREEN: Just us chickens.
RAYLAN: So then check out
Sandy's last known address,
put a car on Weems' condo,
and maybe somebody
inside the casino as insurance.
WENDELL: Already on it.
Skender just got out of surgery.
Hey, give me two minutes with this kid.
WENDELL: Not gonna talk to you.
Only thing that can make
that boy sing is Toma.
What's a Toma?
Toma Kastiot, kid's uncle.
MAUREEN: Calls the shots for
the Albanians this side of the river.
What Toma says goes.

My own mother lived here.
[BILLIARD BALLS CLACK]
I bought the property
when it was distressed.
Distressed as opposed to now?
[SIGHS]
The clientele is very satisfied.
It is a pleasure to give back
to the community.
I hope someday I am cared for
with such, uh,
delicacy.
Yeah. It's peachy.
Uh, hey, listen, Toma,
sorry to hear about your nephew there.
Tough luck.
Ah, that leg, ouch.
[TOMA GROANS, SPEAKING ALBANIAN]
You want us to Google that or
TOMA: Uh, it means, um,
"You choose your friends,
but family is
thrust upon you."
My nephew Skender, he is femije idiot
an idiot man-child
with an unfortunate predilection
for bad decisions.
RAYLAN: Well, here's an opportunity
for him to make better decisions
helping us out catching
the dude who did this to him.
TOMA: I-I know you have come here
to get me to compel Skender
to tell you who has done this
so police can arrest
and serve justice as you see fit.
- He catches on fast.
- [LIGHTER CLICKING]
TOMA: Mm.
Of course, that justice
is really no justice at all.
It is, uh, only satisfaction
of a mandate
for the appearance of order.
But order and justice,
they are not same thing.
If I wanted to restore order,
I could, of course, instruct
Skender to cooperate.
But I am not interested in order.
Justice, however
justice is meted out in accordance
with the action it remedies.
And in this case
justice requires more than
the law is willing or able
to provide.
Well, fuck, that was a mouthful.
Let me get you to say that
again into my phone.
It'll play great at your arraignment.
Mr. Kastiot,
while we understand
where you're coming from
and respect the personal responsibility
you feel for your nephew,
imbecile or no,
we can't have everybody
in some kind of dogpile
running around
shooting at the wrong people.
I am not concerned with wrong people.
Who did this to Skender
did also unto me.
It is same thing.
I will look this shkertate
right in his eye.
[CHUCKLES] You hear that, Raylan?
You hear him gazing into the
eyes of some Russian dipshit
when what he should be looking
for is Clement Mansell.
Oh, come on, this is a secret?
Uh, Toma
What your nephew
doesn't want anybody to know
is that he got legged
by a fatback Oklahoma dickwad.
- RAYLAN: Give me a minute?
- BRYL: Sure.
[INDISTINCT PA ANNOUNCEMENT]
He was not supposed to tell me this.
The name is unfamiliar,
but, uh, these things
have a way of changing.
Look, I can't stop you from
doing what you're gonna do.
Even sympathize in a way.
But you also need to understand,
your place in line,
which is to say, me first.
After I'm done,
you can charge the shit heap
with felony assault,
but it ain't gonna mean much
if he's doing life.
- You understand what I'm sayin'?
- You tell me to get in line.
I say, "You want him,
you better find him quick,
or he'll be dead."

Thank you, Marshal Givens.
Perhaps our paths will cross again.

BRYL: You gonna yell at me?
I've never been much of a yeller.
BRYL: 'Cause what's not to like?
He's gonna find out anyway.
Either the Albanians lead us to Mansell,
or they turn him
into little, tiny pieces
done and done.
That's an optimistic point of view.
Another would be we just
put a hit out on our suspect.
BRYL: Excuse me for misunderstanding
that you had the willingness
to do what needs getting done.
I got no problem getting things done.
I do have a problem
rolling up on Mansell
facedown in a river shot to death
by some Albanian dipshits
when what we want
is for the man to be prosecuted,
forced to answer for his crimes,

in a tiny cell.
BRYL: Ah, that's another way
to look at it.
BESNIK: Let me be the talking one.
That means someone out there
is not being satisfied, okay?

Yes. One second, please, gentlemen.

Rehearsal starts in a few minutes,

We need to find her,
as she is not picking up phone.
RICK: Mm.
BESNIK: Can you please give us
her address, please?
I wish I could help you.
I really wish I could.
But, um, that old eye
in the sky right there
wouldn't look so kindly
on me sprinkling
employee information around.
You know, always watching.
- I see.
- RICK: Yeah.
Would a $100 bill make it easier?
Ooh, yeah, it sure would, bro.
But I tell you what
these guys would not like that.
No.
It's that employee policy.
We can't accept gratuities
on the casino floor.
I'm not happy about it either.
Tell you guys what,
why don't I get you guys
comfortable in the VIP lounge?
First Old Fashioned's on me,

RAYLAN: You're not wrong.
It seems your knucklehead client
may have crossed a line
with the local Albanian mob.
So you're here to question him
about a new complaint, is that it?
Uh, no.
The Albanian kid
whose leg he busted up
he ain't talkin'.
And so
RAYLAN: And so what that means, Carolyn,
is now, as we speak,
hoards of Eastern Europeans
are spreading across Detroit
looking to ixnay your client
and likely Sandy Stanton
and anyone close to him along the way.
Why, Marshal
I think you're trying to scare me.
I don't have to.
The Albanians should already do that.
Well, they don't.
Look, it's not for me
to tell you you're in

But I ain't been here a week,
and the shit I've seen
has certainly given me pause.
Marshal, this is my job.
I defend killers.
That's how I make my money.
- I understand that, but
- CAROLYN: And I don't know
whatever it is you got
going on in your head,
but Mansell has the right
the constitutional right
to representation.
And I am going to provide
said representation
for as long as he pays me to do so,
and nobody's gonna scare me
out of doing that.
Anything else you got to ask?
This is different,

I think you'll find there's
been a shake-up in personnel.

this particular lawyer is off-limits.

Now, I ordered this steak
black and blue.
Do you know what black and blue means?
- Means rare?

It does not mean rare.
I means goddamn bloody red.
So here's what I want you to do.
I want you to take this.
I want you to throw it in the trash.
Then I want you to get your chef,
have another steak,
smack that on the fire,
sing two verses
"Of Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground"
flip that sucker, sing the third verse,
yank it off, plate it,

time to head back to the Venus,

been a shake-up in personnel.

this particular lawyer is off-limits.
Run along, tell Toma

You understand, you are a value

somebody sitting outside my house?
Take it up with the judge, I guess.
