St.
Abba what? St.
Abba Hour.
He had his hands cut off.
Then he was tied to the tail of an ox and dragged through the city.
- Wow.
- Then they threw him in a pit of poisonous snakes.
But none of them bit him.
And that's when his mom, Theodora, showed up.
Did she rejoice in his strife too? Yeah.
'Cause he loved God so much and all.
- [ Chuckles .]
- So they put red-hot iron rods in her side.
Then they threw them both in boiling oil.
Now, that's a tough day at the office.
Guess what.

[ Barks .]
Hi.

How much do I owe you? I just had to meet the woman who's so nice to my uncle.
Oh, Clay's studying about saints in school.
He's in a play tomorrow.
- Who's your favorite saint? - St.
Pauli Girl.
Your uncle talks about you all the time.
Oh, that can't be good.

The one they hold prayer meetings for every Wednesday.

Shoot-out at the O.
K.
Corral.
Victim points his gun at the cashier, gets about 300 bucks.
Exits.
Stops a carhop.
Wants the root beer float on her tray.
Customer in that truck has a gun.
Confronts our victim.
Victim turns.
Points his gun at the armed customer.
- Customer shoots.
- Victim steals $300 and a root beer float? - Best root beer floats in town.
- Got three eyewitnesses who support the shooter's story.
You might want to take a look at this.
- It's wood.
- Shit.
- This thing looks real.
- This thing looks like a .
45.
[ Henry .]
No I.
D.
He had an almond a pocketknife, several bobby pins a compass and a tennis ball.
Almonds, tennis ball, bobby pins? What, is somebody stealing second base? - Sgt.
Gumshoe's secret sign.
- Cartoon character.
My niece loves him.
My son is obsessed with him.
He solves crimes by using cool tools like a tennis ball or almond or the bobby pins.
An almond? Let's get a look at this guy.
Can I ask you a few questions? I'm deaf.
Do you read lips? Sorry.
I-I don't know sign language.
[ No Audible Dialogue .]
Did you see what happened? Was he alone? You've seen him before? Three times.
When? Uh-huh.
Was he with somebody? White guy? Uh- Hooded sweatshirt, sunglasses? How old? What time did they get off the bus? What time did they get off the bus? What time did you see them? All three times? What'd they do? Then what? [ Chuckles .]
Why do you sit here every day? I don't know.
Are you? No! Write down your name, phone number, address.
- Why? - Because.
I have to write a report.
You have a nice day.
He made at least three dry runs with an unknown male, then pulled the robbery solo.
- Faking type thing? - Maybe.
- You got a quarter on you? - Yeah.
Yeah.
Looks like he's in his 30s.
Not sure of his developmental age.
Well, we gotta get bulletins out there to work sites, homes schools in the city that the intellectually disabled- Aw, shit.
The media.
Let's just blitz the media.
No need.
The media's all over this.
Listen, the victim had a Gumshoe kit on him.
That didn't make sense, because ''he saves the day and bad guys pay.
'' ''He's the best, makes the arrest.
Rights the wrongs all day long.
'' [ Together.]
''With bobby pins and pocket knife, he will be your friend for life.
'' I know.
I hear it all the time when I babysit my niece.
- Amy? - Amy is 1 6! - Sixteen? - That's right.
What are you doing back here, man? What happened to getting your real estate license? Yeah, you haven't met Denny yet.
She's almost four.
Says she wants to be a police officer when she grows up.
-Just like Aunt Kate.
-Just like Sgt.
Gumshoe.
We've got Sgt.
Gumshoe sheets, underwear, lunch box.
That's all my sons wanted for Christmas last year.
- Boys.
- Civilian shooter checks out so far.
He had a permit for the gun.
He's pretty shook up.
Yeah, I'll talk to the D.
A.
's Office.
See how he wants to proceed.
You know, if somebody in a mask pointed this at me, I'd shoot too.
Where'd he get this? Did he buy it? Yes, Grace? Rhetta says it's hand-carved and painted.
Not manufactured.
- Yes, Bobby? - Victim could've carved it himself.
If he did, that's one thing, but if somebody else did and put it in his hand, that person is going down.
- Do we have any bus camera video? - Working on it.
- Yes, Ham? - A guy in Robbery says he's got something for me.
I'm gonna head up and get the details.
- Hey, man.
I was coming up.
- I told you I was coming down, dog.
You've taken three jobs off my desk, boy.
I could kiss you.
- [ Laughing .]
- Hey, get off me, man.
What are you doing? - Hey, man, how's Darlene? - She's good.
She's good.
Yeah.
Good, good, good.
I saw Patty last week over at Target.
Had a case of motor oil in one hand and three cartons of Virginia Slims in the other.
That's my mom.
What you got for me? You got a similar M.
O.
working? Yeah.
It's three hits in five weeks.
He's a white male.
Wears a homemade paper plate mask.
Used a gun.
- Mm-hmm.
- Take a look.
The first one's right here.
It's an ice cream parlor.
Stole 500 bucks and walked out with a gallon of chocolate.
Second one's a candy store.
Stole 3 50 bucks and a container of black licorice.
- Mm-hmm.
- Last one's over here.
It's a dry cleaners.
Big hit, man- 1, 1 00 bucks.
And walked out with an entire gum ball machine.
Chocolate, licorice and a gum ball machine.
- And a root beer float.
- They thought junkie.
Yeah.
I would have too.
The first robbery was at May and 63rd.
- Second was on North Villa, south of 63rd.
- Mm-hmm.
Third was on Portland, one block north of 63rd.
Today, corner of 63rd and Meridian.
- So he started on May, traveled west on 63rd.
- Mm-hmm.
First hit was probably closest to home.
So red is state, blue's private, green are schools.
And around 63rd and May- - Four schools, two group homes.
- Yeah.
[ Chuckles .]
I'm Detective Hanadarko.
This is Detective Dewey.
- You in charge? - I'm the care provider here.
This a private group home? Yes, for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
- Is there something wrong? - Do you recognize this man? That's Georgie.
GeorgieJones.
What happened? Is he okay? He was killed this morning.
Shot in a robbery attempt.
Georgie didn't have any money.
How long did Georgie live here? - Almost two years.
- [ Growling .]
- Bang! - [ Woman .]
Oh! [ Man Groaning .]
- Georgie.
- This is wood.
Georgie.
Georgie.
Georgie! Georgie! Georgie! - It's okay, Andrew.
Andrew? Andrew! - Georgie! Georgie! - It's all right.
Come on, baby.
- Georgie! - No! No, baby! - GeorgieI - GeorgieI - NoI No, baby.
It's okay.
It's all right.
They sedated him.
We can't talk to him till tomorrow.
You could've shot him.
He's lucky you just tackled him.
- We tackled a five-year-old.
- You thought he had a gun.
Ham looked like he was gonna cry.
So what do you think is going on? Andrew and Georgie were friends- roommates.
- Butch and Sundance.
- And the Unabomber.
Andrew had on a Sgt.
Gumshoe ring too.
Andrew's paint job isn't as good but I think these are carved by the same person.
Woman in charge said no way they could've carved 'em.
I mean, shit.
- Look at this detail.
- Mmm.
Ham's right.
Looks like a .
45.
Speaking of Ham- What's going on with Butch? - Speaking ofJack St.
Clair.
- Who? My next-door neighbor's nephew's in town for a few days.
And cute.
Did you just say cute? [ Chuckling .]
Oh, God.
Andrew Richards.
Parents dead, one sister.
- We're tracking her down.
- What is this? A gang of mentally challenged adults let loose on some kind of crime spree? - What kind of place is this? - A nice one from what we could see.
But we want to check the employees- Woman in charge, Toby McKees.
But we want to get a warrant, go back.
And search the bedroom of an unconscious, mentally challenged suspect? And the rest of the place.
Somebody working there could be involved.
- Are Georgie and Andrew capable of a ruse like this? - McKees says no.
But Georgie went to get coffee this morning with his Best Pal, David Hanks.
They signed out 7:33.
Never checked back in.
And the robbery occurred at 1 0:30 a.
m.
Right.
And ''Best Pals'' is this program where- I know what Best Pals is.
I used to be a Best Pal.
It's a volunteer thing.
I was lousy at it.
What about the mask? Did they make it in art class? No formal classes.
They make stuff together there sometimes.
But nobody recognized the mask or the gun.
They have access to carving tools? You know, knives, chisels? [ Laughs .]
It'd be a blood bath.
- What? - Get the warrant.
But be nice.
All right.
How long you been Best Pals? Almost a year.
But today's the first time you picked up Georgie for coffee? Yeah.
We, uh, usually go out for pizza.
Do something on the weekends.
I had a, uh,job interview in his neighborhood.
I had a little time.
So we got coffee.
- You bring him home? - Yeah.
- What time? - Uh, about 8:30.
I watched him walk towards the door.
Towards the door? Not through it? God.
God.
I was running late.
- But I always just dropped him off.
- You stoned, David? - Uh, no.
- No? No.
Because I think you went home after the interview and got stoned.
How long you been out of work? Oh, a couple months.
Name, phone and address of the interview.
[ Clicking .]
Hey, what-What's with all the almonds? Oh.
Um, he hits the bad guys with them.
And then- [ Gobbling Sounds .]
eats the evidence.
[ Both Laughing .]
- Hey, it's a cartoon.
- Shh! What? He's sedated.
She said we couldn't wake him up with a power saw.
- Hey! - Hey! Hey! Hey, what-What would you do if- if you had a kid, and he had an extra chromosome? What if we're short a chromosome? Really, you know? To have a pocketful of edible evidence- - I mean, how fun is that? - I know, but your kid's gotta sleep with guard rails the rest of his life because he might fall out of bed and crack his head open.
- That ain't fun.
- If he's my kid, he's my kid.
I'd do the best I can.
So would you.
Yeah, I know, but I mean, wouldn't you just flip out just a little bit? Oh, shit, yeah.
[ Laughs .]
I dated a guy in junior high school with a mentally challenged brother.
- Really? - He put his hand down my pants one day.
The brother, not my boyfriend.
He was already putting his hand down my pants.
- You tell him what happened? - Yeah.
Mistake.
He kicked his ass.
[ Recorded Voice .]
They call me Gumshoe, Sgt.
Gumshoe.
- Quick on the draw, Gumshoe's law.
- [ Laughing .]
From the caper on North Villa.
- Caper on Portland.
- Wow.
Okay.
Where's the money? Yeah, or the shit they spent the money on, unless it's this Gumshoe stuff.
You want to go get a beer after this? I got Clay tonight.
He needs a bathI King Boy.
King Boy.
I love you, King Boy.
I love you, King Boy.
I love you.
[ Clay .]
Has anyone ever counted the stars? [ St.
Clair.]
I did.
When I was eight.
Fell asleep counting around 2,200-something.
Nah, there's too many to count.
Too many to see.
The longer you look, the more there are.
[ Exhales .]
We better get going.
Paige wants you home by 1 0:00.
Why can't I stay with you? Gotta work early.
Chet says you're investigating that shooting at the barbecue place.
Said he saw you on the news.
- Cool! What is that? - Great Orion Nebula.
It's a huge cloud of gas, dust and plasma about 1 ,500 light-years from Earth.
Aunt Grace, you have got to look at this.
I'm looking.
You can see it with the naked eye.
Look-Right below Orion's belt middle bright spot on the dagger.
[ Clay .]
I see it.
How did God ever decide which stars are gonna be constellations? Well, the ancient Greeks decided.
Long time ago.
They were the first people to draw lines between the stars- like, connect the dots- and give them names.
But God put the stars in the right place so they connected.
Well, if you think about it you could take any bunch of stars you like make them into anything you want.
Like those could be a '67 Camaro.
And those- those- Those could be a TV remote control.
[ Clay .]
So those stars down there - They could be Owen Field.
- [ Laughs .]
- Big bang.
Nucleosynthesis.
Condensation of matter into stars.
It's amazing.
All those stars.
- And how little we know about it.
- Yeah.
God's the only one who really knows.
And saints know, I bet.
What do you figure, Aunt Grace? Hey, you get ripped apart by meat hooks, you better have some payoff.
[ Laughs .]
So- Sounds like you're an expert on the big bang.
[ Door Opens .]
[ Keys Clatter On Tabletop .]
Hey, Gussy! - [ Panting .]
- [ Whines .]
- How you doing? - Great, Earl.
I'm going to bed.
You ain't gonna take the edge off with half a bottle of bourbon? I might have a beer.
Oh.
Well, nothing wrong with that.
I'll have one with you.
I'll stick with water.
Now that I'm thinking on it why'd you leaveJack at the door? And why ain't there clothes strewn all over the furniture while the two of you make like gymnasts on the couch or on top of the TV? - You know Jack? - Well, I just met him.
Just like you.
Seemed like a nice guy.
- He's an atheist.
- Well, I kinda figured that out.
- Night, Earl.
- Night, Grace.
[ Gus Panting .]
This is gonna get interesting, huh, Gus? Yeah.
[ Chuckles .]
Yes, it will get interesting.
Interesting.
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
- Morning, Captain.
- Morning, Bobby.
- Bus video? - They're still pulling it together.
I'm going over there this afternoon.
Well, I read your report on David Hanks.
Not a fan, huh? Oh, he's a stoner.
He shouldn't be working with the mentally challenged.
- He has no record.
- Also has no money.
He's in debt 40 grand.
Well, the total on these jobs is only about $2,300.
What, is he starting them small and working up to a bank job? Maybe.
His interview was over at 9:20.
Plenty of time to put Georgie on the bus.
Hey, I went by the robbery location.
Showed 'em a picture of Georgie.
They all said that he came by a couple of times before the hit with a white guy who looked like the Unabomber.
- 5'8'' to six foot.
- How tall is Andrew? - He's 4'1 0''.
- David Hanks is 5'8''.
Maybe his Best Pal wasn't bringing in enough money.
He's grooming Andrew.
You know, the D.
A.
's going after a murder charge for whoever put that gun in Georgie's hand.
Andrew has to know who that is.
You do this every day? - I like your belt.
- Thank you.
- You must make lots of money.
- If I had a dog, I would buy it a ball.
Did you buy the gun you had yesterday? The one made of wood? - Do you have a dog? - Yeah.
His name is Gus.
- Gussy! - Yeah.
Georgie had a gun like yours too.
- That's pretty cool.
- Cool guns.
I like guns.
- Where'd you get 'em? - Hi, Stacy.
Hi, Andrew.
Um, guns are serious business.
Serious, serious business.
Did somebody give them to you guys? It's the law.
Quick on the draw.
It's the law.
- Yo, Andrew.
- Yo, Lance.
How you doing? Yo, Georgie's dead.
I'm real sad.
Me too, buddy.
I'm sorry.
- Yo, I have some gum.
Want some? - No, thanks, buddy.
- Bye, buddy.
Bye.
- All right.
- See you later.
- See you later.
You sure have a lot of friends.
Yes, I do.
Friends to the end, my friends.
Hey, guy.
Hey, guy.
Hey, guy.
My sister Faye has a bullmastiff-King Boy.
- You know why I keep my wallet on a chain? - No, why? Pickpockets! [ Laughs .]
[ Groans .]
Andrew threw an almond at someone who was making fun of him one time.
Couldn't understand why the guy didn't fall down.
Edible evidence, Sgt.
Gumshoe style.
Love it, man.
He couldn't plan something like this.
Follow directions on a bus? And he would never steal from someone.
- Why does Andrew wear the helmet? - Oh, seizures.
He falls down.
We just want to be careful.
- And who is ''we''? - Oh, me and his doctors.
So it's just you taking care of Andrew? Oh, and McKees.
That woman's an angel.
Faye, who are Andrew's friends? I mean, what does he like to do? He's not gonna know what to do without Georgie.
And, uh, everyone is Andrew's friend.
- The gardener's his friend.
- [ Laughs .]
- He likes dogs, loves dogs.
- Yeah.
- Sgt.
Gumshoe.
- Yeah.
His neighborhood.
The people know him.
They're sweet to him.
- Does he like guns? - Oh, yeah.
Our dad used to take him hunting.
Which my mom-Well, drove her crazy.
- But he was always careful.
- Yeah? My dad told him, ''Guns are serious business.
'' Where'd he get this gun? I don't know.
But I'd like to find out.
Do you have any other guns, Andrew? King Boy and Gus.
- Gus and King Boy.
- I have a gun.
But it's not wood.
Can I get one like yours? Guys, check it out.
It's helmet head.
Such a freak.
Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! No, Andrew.
Those boys are stupid.
I think your helmet's cool.
Okay.
I really want a gun like yours.
Who carved it? You can have my gun, Grace.
Hey, Drew! - What up? - Hi, Mr.
Ralphie.
Georgie's dead.
Mr.
Ralphie, Georgie's dead.
Yeah, I heard, man.
I'm really sorry, buddy.
- Here's some gum.
- Thanks, man.
- Are you okay? - Sad.
Real sad.
Yeah? Me too.
Well, come on.
Let's weigh this in, man.
See what kind of fortune you leave with here today.
This is my money.
My money.
Okeydokey.
We got one.
We got two.
We got three.
We got four.
And 1 8 cents.
That's not bad for a morning's work.
I'll buy you lunch.
[ Chuckles .]
See ya.
Bye-bye.
[ Ham .]
I understand.
I understand.
Okay, fine.
Fine.
Yeah.
What you got, man? Check this out.
I got Georgie and the Unabomber on the bus.
- Hold.
Freeze it.
Freeze it.
- You recognize him? Look, Andrew's got a couple sweatshirts like that.
It doesn't look like he's wearing a helmet.
That's not Andrew.
He's too tall.
When was this? Uh, day before Georgie robbed Barn Burners.
I also got him three other times with the same guy, same time.
- This is the day Georgie was killed.
- Okay, man.
I want this asshole.
What he did is the same as putting a gun in the hands of an eight-year-old kid.
Grace able to get anything out of Andrew? She's checking his routine.
Names of the people in his neighborhood.
- What about this Best Pal guy? - It's starting to look less interesting.
He's got testicular cancer.
Pot gives him an appetite.
Shit! So we got nothing! [ Acoustic Guitar.
:Folk Beat .]
- [ Man Singing, Indistinct .]
- [ Knocking .]
The crow said from the tree You would get home faster If you could fly like me Maybe so, she said - But I'm just takin'my time - Got something on the gun.
- Carved from oak.
- Oak? - Oak.
-Jack isn't here yet, and you're leaving.
- Please.
- No! - Please.
- No! You're not wearing that, are you? What about this? Hmm.
I want to know what's so special about this guy.
Ooh! Ooh- Here we go.
Nah.
Well, you're cooking him spaghetti.
- Come onI - Guy knows how to handle his telescope.
Yeah, the day that you don't sleep with a guy is the day I'll know it's serious.
I didn't sleep with him.
- I just didn't.
- Okay, who are you? And what did you do with my Grace? You know, you haven't had one drink since I got here.
He's kinda mysterious.
Like uncharted territory.
We talked on my back porch for four hours.
- You know? - About what? [ Gasps .]
This is pretty.
You find something.
- Yeah, not bad.
[ Laughs .]
- [ Laughs .]
Oh, come on! What did you talk about? - [ Knocking .]
- [ Inhales .]
Please, please, please, please please, please, please, please, please, please! Watch out for the dog poop.
[ Knocking .]
- Hey.
- See you, guys.
- I know Clay likes Spider-Man.
- I got a date, Ham.
No Clay.
Got a date.
- Get outta here.
I got a date.
- I heard.
- I got a date with an atheist.
- [ Chuckles .]
You're like a little kid, Grace.
You expect me to throw a fit? Maybe vomit pea soup, spin my head around a few times? So you don't care if he doesn't believe in God? Well, tell you the truth, it wouldn't be my first choice.
Aha.
That's what I thought.
But then I'd have made you a little taller and the oceans a little deeper.
And chocolate the major food group at the top of that pyramid thing you all got going on these days.
Well, it depends on what kind of man he is.
Is he kind, respectful, honest? And if he likes chili con queso, that's extra points in my book.
He thinks your boss is a manifestation of man's guilt, ignorance and insecurity.
I told him he left out manipulation.
Well, did you tell him about me? Well, why not? [ Chuckling .]
I didn't know you was a phony baloney.
[ Knocking .]
So stay.
MeetJack.
Show him your wings.
Well, the man gave credit for all the stars in the universe to gas.
I don't think he's gonna be too impressed with my wings.
[ Rushing Sound .]
- Grace getting anywhere with Andrew? - Little by little, yeah.
I think it's time to bring in a professional.
This is the way McKees said we'd get the most information.
Andrew needs to bond, get comfortable, to really have a conversation.
[ Barking .]
I got this for you.
It's a bullmastiff- like King Boy.
Made from tupelo.
Tupelo, easy to work.
Tupelo, not like oak.
Who taught you about wood carving? - She didn't teach me.
I watched.
- Who'd you watch? - King Boy's bigger than Gus.
- AndrewI - Yo, Andrew! - Yo, Lance.
Yo.
- That's a badass jacket.
- I give it to you.
No, no, no, man.
Uh, it looks too good on you.
I'll see you later, okay? Later, Lance.
Later.
You ever give Lance one of your sweatshirts? - Lance is my friend.
- I know, Andrew.
But did you ever give him a sweatshirt? King Boy needs a bath.
King Boy needs a bath.
Can I wash King Boy? So are you gonna pay me? Pay me to wash Gus? Whatever you think is fair, Andrew.
- Fif-Fifty dollars! - [ Laughs .]
Five dollars.
How about 20? And some wood carving lessons? - Okay.
- Who's gonna teach me? I'm washing you, Gus.
- So that I can have a gun just like yours.
- Oak.
Yeah.
Made out of oak.
Love you, Gus.
Love you.
- Can I have one of your sweatshirts? - Yes.
- Does Lance have one too? - [ Phone Ringing .]
[ Ringing Continues .]
Shit.
Sorry.
Jack, I forgot.
- You better have a good excuse.
- This case, man.
- Aw, I'm just giving you a hard time.
- [ Laughs .]
Think you're gonna be able to make it? Um- [ Country On Jukebox .]
Good God almighty, it's a beautiful day outside.
How you doing? Name's Earl.
[ Man On Jukebox .]
Rhythm bound on a Greyhound Memphis Rhythm bound on a Greyhound - Neat trick.
- Well, how do you know it's a trick? - What else would it be? - I don't know.
A modern miracle? [ Laughs .]
Nice.
Do you believe in magic? - Magic tricks.
- What about the magician? Sure I believe in him- or her.
Magic's still just tricks.
What would it take, hypothetically speaking- For me to believe in the supernatural? - In God.
- [ Scoffs .]
It's not gonna happen.
- I couldn't prove it to you? - How? Well, you're an astronomy buff.
- Maybe.
- So pick a star, any star.
- Rigel.
- Orion's left foot.
Good choice.
Let's say in the blink of an eye you and me found ourselves standing on the Rigel's fourth planet.
Which by the way is a very pretty little place.
What would you say about that? - Huaorani.
- Gesundheit.
They're a tribe that lives deep in the Amazon.
They were completely isolated from the outside world until 1 958.
What do you think they'd make of a cell phone or a laser? Or a television? So just because you can't explain it doesn't mean it's divine? - More or less.
- Well, how do you explain the human body? [ Scoffs .]
Come on.
Oh, well, say you're right- I am right.
It's been proven.
- Well, who designed evolution? - Look- You and I could do this forever.
I'm not gonna change your mind, and you're not gonna change mine.
[ Chuckles .]
I like your mind.
Not that it's up to me, but it's kinda interesting.
- I don't hear that much in the Bible Belt.
- Well, there you go.
I ain't from around these parts.
[ Laughs .]
We had dinner.
He kissed me good night and left.
I accidentally blew him off for lunch today.
- We're going to a movie tonight.
- Are you sure you're not sick? This is way too normal for you.
He's gotta go back to Little Rock tomorrow.
- I may drive up there with Chet this weekend.
- You're shitting me.
- [ Laughs .]
- Oh- - You should've seen your face.
- Grace! - Get any prints off the guns? - Yeah, but they were too smudged to read.
And Georgie's prints were on the mask, but that doesn't help you.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Wow.
Deja vu.
You know, you don't have to lie to me.
I know you got a life.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
Are you getting anywhere with Andrew? [ Laughing .]
Hell if I know.
I mean, the kid gives shit away to everyone.
He tried to give this kid Lance his jacket.
So you think he gave Lance his white sweatshirt? I don't know.
You think that's Lance? I think we ought to bring him in and find out.
I ran the names in Andrew's neighborhood.
- Nothing.
- Aw, shit.
Bunch of upstanding citizens- except one.
Ralphie, Ralph- - We got a couple questions for you.
- What kind of questions? We got some stuff working in the neighborhood, Ralphie.
Just want to see if you know anything, seen anything? Mind if I pat you down while we talk? I just want to be safe.
Sure.
No- No problem.
No problem.
- Step out a little bit for me.
- Okay.
- Everything cool here? - Yeah.
- Had a problem with anything? - No.
- Any kids hanging out? - No.
- Getting in trouble? You know what I'm saying? - Uh-huh.
- Okay if I check your pockets? - Uh, yeah.
Go ahead.
- You don't have anything that'll hurt me, do you? - Not a thing.
- Anyone break in? - No.
Robberies reported all over the area, man.
Okay if my guys look around? Make sure you're good? Well, you know, I ain't had no problems, but okay.
Cool.
I hear you got a couple beefs for burglary, Ralphie.
Yeah.
I've been out for seven years.
See, what I don't understand is why a grown man wears a Sgt.
Gumshoe ring.
Hey, man.
Drew gave that to me.
- So I put it on.
- Same with the sweatshirt, huh? - That's mine.
- How about this? It's not made of wood.
Aw, shit.
You're an ex-felon.
Got a gun.
[ Grace.]
Sorry, Ralphie.
Damn it.
Nice job.
Andrew said a woman carved the guns.
He said ''she.
'' I never carved a damn thing in my life.
He got the gun from someone he was close to.
It wasn't me.
- Hi, Grace.
- Hi, Andrew.
It was nice of you to give Ralphie one of your sweatshirts.
Ralphie likes my sweatshirt.
Here.
I give me to you.
This is me.
- It's me.
Oak.
That's me.
- It's beautiful.
- Where'd you get it? - King Boy got a bath.
He got a bath.
Were you with King Boy when you got this? My sister made me.
Made me.
That's me.
We gave King Boy a bath.
You're really talented.
Been carving long? - You know, we got your boyfriend in the other room- Mr.
Ralphie.
- He said it was all your idea.
It was his idea.
And we never thought that anyone would get hurt.
- He go on the practice runs with Georgie? - Yes.
How'd you hook up with Ralph? I met him one day when I was out with Andrew and Georgie.
He said, ''Hey, let's use Georgie and your brother to make us some money.
'' And you said, ''Okay.
'' Andrew was never involved.
Just Georgie.
Then why did he have this? He must've taken it from my studio.
We had to have a backup gun in case Georgie lost the first one.
How did you get Georgie to go along with you? Ralphie told Georgie that it was a Sgt.
Gumshoe special mission.
The gun was to protect him from bad guys.
It sounded so simple.
I never thought that Georgie would get hurt.
[ Sobs .]
What's gonna happen to Andrew? [ Rock .]
- [ Man .]
Standing on the corner - [ Knocking .]
Suitcase in my hand Jack's in his corset Jane - She's- - Hey.
- Hey.
- I'm in a rock and roll band - How was your day? [ Thunder Rumbling .]
- Long.
- Ridin'in that Stutz Bearcat,Jim Those were different times Let's take it easy tonight.
They studied rules of verse I was kinda hoping to see stars tonight.
I didn't bring my telescope.
SweetJane - SweetJane - I think you did.
- [ Both Laughing .]
- SweetJane SweetJane [ Grace.]
Oh, my GodI
Abba what? St.
Abba Hour.
He had his hands cut off.
Then he was tied to the tail of an ox and dragged through the city.
- Wow.
- Then they threw him in a pit of poisonous snakes.
But none of them bit him.
And that's when his mom, Theodora, showed up.
Did she rejoice in his strife too? Yeah.
'Cause he loved God so much and all.
- [ Chuckles .]
- So they put red-hot iron rods in her side.
Then they threw them both in boiling oil.
Now, that's a tough day at the office.
Guess what.
Oh! - [ Thunder Rumbling .]
- [ Whines .]
[ Both Giggling .]
[ Growling .]
Aaah! Aaah! Thank you, Aunt Grace.
This is so cool! Oh, wait.
We forgot.
- Aaah! - [ Cackling .]
- [ Groaning .]
- Die! Don't torture yourself too much.
I'm gonna take a bath.
- Order us some pizza, okay? - Yea.
[ Laughs .]
- [ Announcer.]
Back to pass.
Looks left.
- YeahI - Whoo! - I don't know how he held onto that one.
The ball was thrown behind him.
- Riordan had to stop and come back to his right.
- [ Knocking .]
- Pizza! - a minute and 35 seconds left in the half.
[ Barks .]
Hi.
- Hi.
Uh- - Is your mom home? She's not my mom.
Aunt Grace! - Hi.
- Hi.
I'm Jack St.
Clair.
I'm Chet Noble's nephew.
I think this is yours.
Come on in.
How much do I owe you? I just had to meet the woman who's so nice to my uncle.
Oh, Clay's studying about saints in school.
He's in a play tomorrow.
- Who's your favorite saint? - St.
Pauli Girl.
Your uncle talks about you all the time.
Oh, that can't be good.
- LittleJack from Little Rock? - Yeah.
The one they hold prayer meetings for every Wednesday.
- Yep.
- The atheist.
That's me.
Want some pizza? [ Acoustic Guitar.]
[ Man .]
So pretty and, oh, so bold Got a heart full of gold on a lonely road - She said, ''I don't even think that God can save me'' - Save me Am I gaining ground Am I losing face Have I lost and found my saving grace Thankful for the gift my angels gave me [ Accordion Playing .]

Shoot-out at the O.
K.
Corral.
Victim points his gun at the cashier, gets about 300 bucks.
Exits.
Stops a carhop.
Wants the root beer float on her tray.
Customer in that truck has a gun.
Confronts our victim.
Victim turns.
Points his gun at the armed customer.
- Customer shoots.
- Victim steals $300 and a root beer float? - Best root beer floats in town.
- Got three eyewitnesses who support the shooter's story.
You might want to take a look at this.
- It's wood.
- Shit.
- This thing looks real.
- This thing looks like a .
45.
[ Henry .]
No I.
D.
He had an almond a pocketknife, several bobby pins a compass and a tennis ball.
Almonds, tennis ball, bobby pins? What, is somebody stealing second base? - Sgt.
Gumshoe's secret sign.
- Cartoon character.
My niece loves him.
My son is obsessed with him.
He solves crimes by using cool tools like a tennis ball or almond or the bobby pins.
An almond? Let's get a look at this guy.
Can I ask you a few questions? I'm deaf.
Do you read lips? Sorry.
I-I don't know sign language.
[ No Audible Dialogue .]
Did you see what happened? Was he alone? You've seen him before? Three times.
When? Uh-huh.
Was he with somebody? White guy? Uh- Hooded sweatshirt, sunglasses? How old? What time did they get off the bus? What time did they get off the bus? What time did you see them? All three times? What'd they do? Then what? [ Chuckles .]
Why do you sit here every day? I don't know.
Are you? No! Write down your name, phone number, address.
- Why? - Because.
I have to write a report.
You have a nice day.
He made at least three dry runs with an unknown male, then pulled the robbery solo.
- Faking type thing? - Maybe.
- You got a quarter on you? - Yeah.
Yeah.
Looks like he's in his 30s.
Not sure of his developmental age.
Well, we gotta get bulletins out there to work sites, homes schools in the city that the intellectually disabled- Aw, shit.
The media.
Let's just blitz the media.
No need.
The media's all over this.
Listen, the victim had a Gumshoe kit on him.
That didn't make sense, because ''he saves the day and bad guys pay.
'' ''He's the best, makes the arrest.
Rights the wrongs all day long.
'' [ Together.]
''With bobby pins and pocket knife, he will be your friend for life.
'' I know.
I hear it all the time when I babysit my niece.
- Amy? - Amy is 1 6! - Sixteen? - That's right.
What are you doing back here, man? What happened to getting your real estate license? Yeah, you haven't met Denny yet.
She's almost four.
Says she wants to be a police officer when she grows up.
-Just like Aunt Kate.
-Just like Sgt.
Gumshoe.
We've got Sgt.
Gumshoe sheets, underwear, lunch box.
That's all my sons wanted for Christmas last year.
- Boys.
- Civilian shooter checks out so far.
He had a permit for the gun.
He's pretty shook up.
Yeah, I'll talk to the D.
A.
's Office.
See how he wants to proceed.
You know, if somebody in a mask pointed this at me, I'd shoot too.
Where'd he get this? Did he buy it? Yes, Grace? Rhetta says it's hand-carved and painted.
Not manufactured.
- Yes, Bobby? - Victim could've carved it himself.
If he did, that's one thing, but if somebody else did and put it in his hand, that person is going down.
- Do we have any bus camera video? - Working on it.
- Yes, Ham? - A guy in Robbery says he's got something for me.
I'm gonna head up and get the details.
- Hey, man.
I was coming up.
- I told you I was coming down, dog.
You've taken three jobs off my desk, boy.
I could kiss you.
- [ Laughing .]
- Hey, get off me, man.
What are you doing? - Hey, man, how's Darlene? - She's good.
She's good.
Yeah.
Good, good, good.
I saw Patty last week over at Target.
Had a case of motor oil in one hand and three cartons of Virginia Slims in the other.
That's my mom.
What you got for me? You got a similar M.
O.
working? Yeah.
It's three hits in five weeks.
He's a white male.
Wears a homemade paper plate mask.
Used a gun.
- Mm-hmm.
- Take a look.
The first one's right here.
It's an ice cream parlor.
Stole 500 bucks and walked out with a gallon of chocolate.
Second one's a candy store.
Stole 3 50 bucks and a container of black licorice.
- Mm-hmm.
- Last one's over here.
It's a dry cleaners.
Big hit, man- 1, 1 00 bucks.
And walked out with an entire gum ball machine.
Chocolate, licorice and a gum ball machine.
- And a root beer float.
- They thought junkie.
Yeah.
I would have too.
The first robbery was at May and 63rd.
- Second was on North Villa, south of 63rd.
- Mm-hmm.
Third was on Portland, one block north of 63rd.
Today, corner of 63rd and Meridian.
- So he started on May, traveled west on 63rd.
- Mm-hmm.
First hit was probably closest to home.
So red is state, blue's private, green are schools.
And around 63rd and May- - Four schools, two group homes.
- Yeah.
[ Chuckles .]
I'm Detective Hanadarko.
This is Detective Dewey.
- You in charge? - I'm the care provider here.
This a private group home? Yes, for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
- Is there something wrong? - Do you recognize this man? That's Georgie.
GeorgieJones.
What happened? Is he okay? He was killed this morning.
Shot in a robbery attempt.
Georgie didn't have any money.
How long did Georgie live here? - Almost two years.
- [ Growling .]
- Bang! - [ Woman .]
Oh! [ Man Groaning .]
- Georgie.
- This is wood.
Georgie.
Georgie.
Georgie! Georgie! Georgie! - It's okay, Andrew.
Andrew? Andrew! - Georgie! Georgie! - It's all right.
Come on, baby.
- Georgie! - No! No, baby! - GeorgieI - GeorgieI - NoI No, baby.
It's okay.
It's all right.
They sedated him.
We can't talk to him till tomorrow.
You could've shot him.
He's lucky you just tackled him.
- We tackled a five-year-old.
- You thought he had a gun.
Ham looked like he was gonna cry.
So what do you think is going on? Andrew and Georgie were friends- roommates.
- Butch and Sundance.
- And the Unabomber.
Andrew had on a Sgt.
Gumshoe ring too.
Andrew's paint job isn't as good but I think these are carved by the same person.
Woman in charge said no way they could've carved 'em.
I mean, shit.
- Look at this detail.
- Mmm.
Ham's right.
Looks like a .
45.
Speaking of Ham- What's going on with Butch? - Speaking ofJack St.
Clair.
- Who? My next-door neighbor's nephew's in town for a few days.
And cute.
Did you just say cute? [ Chuckling .]
Oh, God.
Andrew Richards.
Parents dead, one sister.
- We're tracking her down.
- What is this? A gang of mentally challenged adults let loose on some kind of crime spree? - What kind of place is this? - A nice one from what we could see.
But we want to check the employees- Woman in charge, Toby McKees.
But we want to get a warrant, go back.
And search the bedroom of an unconscious, mentally challenged suspect? And the rest of the place.
Somebody working there could be involved.
- Are Georgie and Andrew capable of a ruse like this? - McKees says no.
But Georgie went to get coffee this morning with his Best Pal, David Hanks.
They signed out 7:33.
Never checked back in.
And the robbery occurred at 1 0:30 a.
m.
Right.
And ''Best Pals'' is this program where- I know what Best Pals is.
I used to be a Best Pal.
It's a volunteer thing.
I was lousy at it.
What about the mask? Did they make it in art class? No formal classes.
They make stuff together there sometimes.
But nobody recognized the mask or the gun.
They have access to carving tools? You know, knives, chisels? [ Laughs .]
It'd be a blood bath.
- What? - Get the warrant.
But be nice.
All right.
How long you been Best Pals? Almost a year.
But today's the first time you picked up Georgie for coffee? Yeah.
We, uh, usually go out for pizza.
Do something on the weekends.
I had a, uh,job interview in his neighborhood.
I had a little time.
So we got coffee.
- You bring him home? - Yeah.
- What time? - Uh, about 8:30.
I watched him walk towards the door.
Towards the door? Not through it? God.
God.
I was running late.
- But I always just dropped him off.
- You stoned, David? - Uh, no.
- No? No.
Because I think you went home after the interview and got stoned.
How long you been out of work? Oh, a couple months.
Name, phone and address of the interview.
[ Clicking .]
Hey, what-What's with all the almonds? Oh.
Um, he hits the bad guys with them.
And then- [ Gobbling Sounds .]
eats the evidence.
[ Both Laughing .]
- Hey, it's a cartoon.
- Shh! What? He's sedated.
She said we couldn't wake him up with a power saw.
- Hey! - Hey! Hey! Hey, what-What would you do if- if you had a kid, and he had an extra chromosome? What if we're short a chromosome? Really, you know? To have a pocketful of edible evidence- - I mean, how fun is that? - I know, but your kid's gotta sleep with guard rails the rest of his life because he might fall out of bed and crack his head open.
- That ain't fun.
- If he's my kid, he's my kid.
I'd do the best I can.
So would you.
Yeah, I know, but I mean, wouldn't you just flip out just a little bit? Oh, shit, yeah.
[ Laughs .]
I dated a guy in junior high school with a mentally challenged brother.
- Really? - He put his hand down my pants one day.
The brother, not my boyfriend.
He was already putting his hand down my pants.
- You tell him what happened? - Yeah.
Mistake.
He kicked his ass.
[ Recorded Voice .]
They call me Gumshoe, Sgt.
Gumshoe.
- Quick on the draw, Gumshoe's law.
- [ Laughing .]
From the caper on North Villa.
- Caper on Portland.
- Wow.
Okay.
Where's the money? Yeah, or the shit they spent the money on, unless it's this Gumshoe stuff.
You want to go get a beer after this? I got Clay tonight.
He needs a bathI King Boy.
King Boy.
I love you, King Boy.
I love you, King Boy.
I love you.
[ Clay .]
Has anyone ever counted the stars? [ St.
Clair.]
I did.
When I was eight.
Fell asleep counting around 2,200-something.
Nah, there's too many to count.
Too many to see.
The longer you look, the more there are.
[ Exhales .]
We better get going.
Paige wants you home by 1 0:00.
Why can't I stay with you? Gotta work early.
Chet says you're investigating that shooting at the barbecue place.
Said he saw you on the news.
- Cool! What is that? - Great Orion Nebula.
It's a huge cloud of gas, dust and plasma about 1 ,500 light-years from Earth.
Aunt Grace, you have got to look at this.
I'm looking.
You can see it with the naked eye.
Look-Right below Orion's belt middle bright spot on the dagger.
[ Clay .]
I see it.
How did God ever decide which stars are gonna be constellations? Well, the ancient Greeks decided.
Long time ago.
They were the first people to draw lines between the stars- like, connect the dots- and give them names.
But God put the stars in the right place so they connected.
Well, if you think about it you could take any bunch of stars you like make them into anything you want.
Like those could be a '67 Camaro.
And those- those- Those could be a TV remote control.
[ Clay .]
So those stars down there - They could be Owen Field.
- [ Laughs .]
- Big bang.
Nucleosynthesis.
Condensation of matter into stars.
It's amazing.
All those stars.
- And how little we know about it.
- Yeah.
God's the only one who really knows.
And saints know, I bet.
What do you figure, Aunt Grace? Hey, you get ripped apart by meat hooks, you better have some payoff.
[ Laughs .]
So- Sounds like you're an expert on the big bang.
[ Door Opens .]
[ Keys Clatter On Tabletop .]
Hey, Gussy! - [ Panting .]
- [ Whines .]
- How you doing? - Great, Earl.
I'm going to bed.
You ain't gonna take the edge off with half a bottle of bourbon? I might have a beer.
Oh.
Well, nothing wrong with that.
I'll have one with you.
I'll stick with water.
Now that I'm thinking on it why'd you leaveJack at the door? And why ain't there clothes strewn all over the furniture while the two of you make like gymnasts on the couch or on top of the TV? - You know Jack? - Well, I just met him.
Just like you.
Seemed like a nice guy.
- He's an atheist.
- Well, I kinda figured that out.
- Night, Earl.
- Night, Grace.
[ Gus Panting .]
This is gonna get interesting, huh, Gus? Yeah.
[ Chuckles .]
Yes, it will get interesting.
Interesting.
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
- Morning, Captain.
- Morning, Bobby.
- Bus video? - They're still pulling it together.
I'm going over there this afternoon.
Well, I read your report on David Hanks.
Not a fan, huh? Oh, he's a stoner.
He shouldn't be working with the mentally challenged.
- He has no record.
- Also has no money.
He's in debt 40 grand.
Well, the total on these jobs is only about $2,300.
What, is he starting them small and working up to a bank job? Maybe.
His interview was over at 9:20.
Plenty of time to put Georgie on the bus.
Hey, I went by the robbery location.
Showed 'em a picture of Georgie.
They all said that he came by a couple of times before the hit with a white guy who looked like the Unabomber.
- 5'8'' to six foot.
- How tall is Andrew? - He's 4'1 0''.
- David Hanks is 5'8''.
Maybe his Best Pal wasn't bringing in enough money.
He's grooming Andrew.
You know, the D.
A.
's going after a murder charge for whoever put that gun in Georgie's hand.
Andrew has to know who that is.
You do this every day? - I like your belt.
- Thank you.
- You must make lots of money.
- If I had a dog, I would buy it a ball.
Did you buy the gun you had yesterday? The one made of wood? - Do you have a dog? - Yeah.
His name is Gus.
- Gussy! - Yeah.
Georgie had a gun like yours too.
- That's pretty cool.
- Cool guns.
I like guns.
- Where'd you get 'em? - Hi, Stacy.
Hi, Andrew.
Um, guns are serious business.
Serious, serious business.
Did somebody give them to you guys? It's the law.
Quick on the draw.
It's the law.
- Yo, Andrew.
- Yo, Lance.
How you doing? Yo, Georgie's dead.
I'm real sad.
Me too, buddy.
I'm sorry.
- Yo, I have some gum.
Want some? - No, thanks, buddy.
- Bye, buddy.
Bye.
- All right.
- See you later.
- See you later.
You sure have a lot of friends.
Yes, I do.
Friends to the end, my friends.
Hey, guy.
Hey, guy.
Hey, guy.
My sister Faye has a bullmastiff-King Boy.
- You know why I keep my wallet on a chain? - No, why? Pickpockets! [ Laughs .]
[ Groans .]
Andrew threw an almond at someone who was making fun of him one time.
Couldn't understand why the guy didn't fall down.
Edible evidence, Sgt.
Gumshoe style.
Love it, man.
He couldn't plan something like this.
Follow directions on a bus? And he would never steal from someone.
- Why does Andrew wear the helmet? - Oh, seizures.
He falls down.
We just want to be careful.
- And who is ''we''? - Oh, me and his doctors.
So it's just you taking care of Andrew? Oh, and McKees.
That woman's an angel.
Faye, who are Andrew's friends? I mean, what does he like to do? He's not gonna know what to do without Georgie.
And, uh, everyone is Andrew's friend.
- The gardener's his friend.
- [ Laughs .]
- He likes dogs, loves dogs.
- Yeah.
- Sgt.
Gumshoe.
- Yeah.
His neighborhood.
The people know him.
They're sweet to him.
- Does he like guns? - Oh, yeah.
Our dad used to take him hunting.
Which my mom-Well, drove her crazy.
- But he was always careful.
- Yeah? My dad told him, ''Guns are serious business.
'' Where'd he get this gun? I don't know.
But I'd like to find out.
Do you have any other guns, Andrew? King Boy and Gus.
- Gus and King Boy.
- I have a gun.
But it's not wood.
Can I get one like yours? Guys, check it out.
It's helmet head.
Such a freak.
Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! No, Andrew.
Those boys are stupid.
I think your helmet's cool.
Okay.
I really want a gun like yours.
Who carved it? You can have my gun, Grace.
Hey, Drew! - What up? - Hi, Mr.
Ralphie.
Georgie's dead.
Mr.
Ralphie, Georgie's dead.
Yeah, I heard, man.
I'm really sorry, buddy.
- Here's some gum.
- Thanks, man.
- Are you okay? - Sad.
Real sad.
Yeah? Me too.
Well, come on.
Let's weigh this in, man.
See what kind of fortune you leave with here today.
This is my money.
My money.
Okeydokey.
We got one.
We got two.
We got three.
We got four.
And 1 8 cents.
That's not bad for a morning's work.
I'll buy you lunch.
[ Chuckles .]
See ya.
Bye-bye.
[ Ham .]
I understand.
I understand.
Okay, fine.
Fine.
Yeah.
What you got, man? Check this out.
I got Georgie and the Unabomber on the bus.
- Hold.
Freeze it.
Freeze it.
- You recognize him? Look, Andrew's got a couple sweatshirts like that.
It doesn't look like he's wearing a helmet.
That's not Andrew.
He's too tall.
When was this? Uh, day before Georgie robbed Barn Burners.
I also got him three other times with the same guy, same time.
- This is the day Georgie was killed.
- Okay, man.
I want this asshole.
What he did is the same as putting a gun in the hands of an eight-year-old kid.
Grace able to get anything out of Andrew? She's checking his routine.
Names of the people in his neighborhood.
- What about this Best Pal guy? - It's starting to look less interesting.
He's got testicular cancer.
Pot gives him an appetite.
Shit! So we got nothing! [ Acoustic Guitar.
:Folk Beat .]
- [ Man Singing, Indistinct .]
- [ Knocking .]
The crow said from the tree You would get home faster If you could fly like me Maybe so, she said - But I'm just takin'my time - Got something on the gun.
- Carved from oak.
- Oak? - Oak.
-Jack isn't here yet, and you're leaving.
- Please.
- No! - Please.
- No! You're not wearing that, are you? What about this? Hmm.
I want to know what's so special about this guy.
Ooh! Ooh- Here we go.
Nah.
Well, you're cooking him spaghetti.
- Come onI - Guy knows how to handle his telescope.
Yeah, the day that you don't sleep with a guy is the day I'll know it's serious.
I didn't sleep with him.
- I just didn't.
- Okay, who are you? And what did you do with my Grace? You know, you haven't had one drink since I got here.
He's kinda mysterious.
Like uncharted territory.
We talked on my back porch for four hours.
- You know? - About what? [ Gasps .]
This is pretty.
You find something.
- Yeah, not bad.
[ Laughs .]
- [ Laughs .]
Oh, come on! What did you talk about? - [ Knocking .]
- [ Inhales .]
Please, please, please, please please, please, please, please, please, please! Watch out for the dog poop.
[ Knocking .]
- Hey.
- See you, guys.
- I know Clay likes Spider-Man.
- I got a date, Ham.
No Clay.
Got a date.
- Get outta here.
I got a date.
- I heard.
- I got a date with an atheist.
- [ Chuckles .]
You're like a little kid, Grace.
You expect me to throw a fit? Maybe vomit pea soup, spin my head around a few times? So you don't care if he doesn't believe in God? Well, tell you the truth, it wouldn't be my first choice.
Aha.
That's what I thought.
But then I'd have made you a little taller and the oceans a little deeper.
And chocolate the major food group at the top of that pyramid thing you all got going on these days.
Well, it depends on what kind of man he is.
Is he kind, respectful, honest? And if he likes chili con queso, that's extra points in my book.
He thinks your boss is a manifestation of man's guilt, ignorance and insecurity.
I told him he left out manipulation.
Well, did you tell him about me? Well, why not? [ Chuckling .]
I didn't know you was a phony baloney.
[ Knocking .]
So stay.
MeetJack.
Show him your wings.
Well, the man gave credit for all the stars in the universe to gas.
I don't think he's gonna be too impressed with my wings.
[ Rushing Sound .]
- Grace getting anywhere with Andrew? - Little by little, yeah.
I think it's time to bring in a professional.
This is the way McKees said we'd get the most information.
Andrew needs to bond, get comfortable, to really have a conversation.
[ Barking .]
I got this for you.
It's a bullmastiff- like King Boy.
Made from tupelo.
Tupelo, easy to work.
Tupelo, not like oak.
Who taught you about wood carving? - She didn't teach me.
I watched.
- Who'd you watch? - King Boy's bigger than Gus.
- AndrewI - Yo, Andrew! - Yo, Lance.
Yo.
- That's a badass jacket.
- I give it to you.
No, no, no, man.
Uh, it looks too good on you.
I'll see you later, okay? Later, Lance.
Later.
You ever give Lance one of your sweatshirts? - Lance is my friend.
- I know, Andrew.
But did you ever give him a sweatshirt? King Boy needs a bath.
King Boy needs a bath.
Can I wash King Boy? So are you gonna pay me? Pay me to wash Gus? Whatever you think is fair, Andrew.
- Fif-Fifty dollars! - [ Laughs .]
Five dollars.
How about 20? And some wood carving lessons? - Okay.
- Who's gonna teach me? I'm washing you, Gus.
- So that I can have a gun just like yours.
- Oak.
Yeah.
Made out of oak.
Love you, Gus.
Love you.
- Can I have one of your sweatshirts? - Yes.
- Does Lance have one too? - [ Phone Ringing .]
[ Ringing Continues .]
Shit.
Sorry.
Jack, I forgot.
- You better have a good excuse.
- This case, man.
- Aw, I'm just giving you a hard time.
- [ Laughs .]
Think you're gonna be able to make it? Um- [ Country On Jukebox .]
Good God almighty, it's a beautiful day outside.
How you doing? Name's Earl.
[ Man On Jukebox .]
Rhythm bound on a Greyhound Memphis Rhythm bound on a Greyhound - Neat trick.
- Well, how do you know it's a trick? - What else would it be? - I don't know.
A modern miracle? [ Laughs .]
Nice.
Do you believe in magic? - Magic tricks.
- What about the magician? Sure I believe in him- or her.
Magic's still just tricks.
What would it take, hypothetically speaking- For me to believe in the supernatural? - In God.
- [ Scoffs .]
It's not gonna happen.
- I couldn't prove it to you? - How? Well, you're an astronomy buff.
- Maybe.
- So pick a star, any star.
- Rigel.
- Orion's left foot.
Good choice.
Let's say in the blink of an eye you and me found ourselves standing on the Rigel's fourth planet.
Which by the way is a very pretty little place.
What would you say about that? - Huaorani.
- Gesundheit.
They're a tribe that lives deep in the Amazon.
They were completely isolated from the outside world until 1 958.
What do you think they'd make of a cell phone or a laser? Or a television? So just because you can't explain it doesn't mean it's divine? - More or less.
- Well, how do you explain the human body? [ Scoffs .]
Come on.
Oh, well, say you're right- I am right.
It's been proven.
- Well, who designed evolution? - Look- You and I could do this forever.
I'm not gonna change your mind, and you're not gonna change mine.
[ Chuckles .]
I like your mind.
Not that it's up to me, but it's kinda interesting.
- I don't hear that much in the Bible Belt.
- Well, there you go.
I ain't from around these parts.
[ Laughs .]
We had dinner.
He kissed me good night and left.
I accidentally blew him off for lunch today.
- We're going to a movie tonight.
- Are you sure you're not sick? This is way too normal for you.
He's gotta go back to Little Rock tomorrow.
- I may drive up there with Chet this weekend.
- You're shitting me.
- [ Laughs .]
- Oh- - You should've seen your face.
- Grace! - Get any prints off the guns? - Yeah, but they were too smudged to read.
And Georgie's prints were on the mask, but that doesn't help you.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Wow.
Deja vu.
You know, you don't have to lie to me.
I know you got a life.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
Are you getting anywhere with Andrew? [ Laughing .]
Hell if I know.
I mean, the kid gives shit away to everyone.
He tried to give this kid Lance his jacket.
So you think he gave Lance his white sweatshirt? I don't know.
You think that's Lance? I think we ought to bring him in and find out.
I ran the names in Andrew's neighborhood.
- Nothing.
- Aw, shit.
Bunch of upstanding citizens- except one.
Ralphie, Ralph- - We got a couple questions for you.
- What kind of questions? We got some stuff working in the neighborhood, Ralphie.
Just want to see if you know anything, seen anything? Mind if I pat you down while we talk? I just want to be safe.
Sure.
No- No problem.
No problem.
- Step out a little bit for me.
- Okay.
- Everything cool here? - Yeah.
- Had a problem with anything? - No.
- Any kids hanging out? - No.
- Getting in trouble? You know what I'm saying? - Uh-huh.
- Okay if I check your pockets? - Uh, yeah.
Go ahead.
- You don't have anything that'll hurt me, do you? - Not a thing.
- Anyone break in? - No.
Robberies reported all over the area, man.
Okay if my guys look around? Make sure you're good? Well, you know, I ain't had no problems, but okay.
Cool.
I hear you got a couple beefs for burglary, Ralphie.
Yeah.
I've been out for seven years.
See, what I don't understand is why a grown man wears a Sgt.
Gumshoe ring.
Hey, man.
Drew gave that to me.
- So I put it on.
- Same with the sweatshirt, huh? - That's mine.
- How about this? It's not made of wood.
Aw, shit.
You're an ex-felon.
Got a gun.
[ Grace.]
Sorry, Ralphie.
Damn it.
Nice job.
Andrew said a woman carved the guns.
He said ''she.
'' I never carved a damn thing in my life.
He got the gun from someone he was close to.
It wasn't me.
- Hi, Grace.
- Hi, Andrew.
It was nice of you to give Ralphie one of your sweatshirts.
Ralphie likes my sweatshirt.
Here.
I give me to you.
This is me.
- It's me.
Oak.
That's me.
- It's beautiful.
- Where'd you get it? - King Boy got a bath.
He got a bath.
Were you with King Boy when you got this? My sister made me.
Made me.
That's me.
We gave King Boy a bath.
You're really talented.
Been carving long? - You know, we got your boyfriend in the other room- Mr.
Ralphie.
- He said it was all your idea.
It was his idea.
And we never thought that anyone would get hurt.
- He go on the practice runs with Georgie? - Yes.
How'd you hook up with Ralph? I met him one day when I was out with Andrew and Georgie.
He said, ''Hey, let's use Georgie and your brother to make us some money.
'' And you said, ''Okay.
'' Andrew was never involved.
Just Georgie.
Then why did he have this? He must've taken it from my studio.
We had to have a backup gun in case Georgie lost the first one.
How did you get Georgie to go along with you? Ralphie told Georgie that it was a Sgt.
Gumshoe special mission.
The gun was to protect him from bad guys.
It sounded so simple.
I never thought that Georgie would get hurt.
[ Sobs .]
What's gonna happen to Andrew? [ Rock .]
- [ Man .]
Standing on the corner - [ Knocking .]
Suitcase in my hand Jack's in his corset Jane - She's- - Hey.
- Hey.
- I'm in a rock and roll band - How was your day? [ Thunder Rumbling .]
- Long.
- Ridin'in that Stutz Bearcat,Jim Those were different times Let's take it easy tonight.
They studied rules of verse I was kinda hoping to see stars tonight.
I didn't bring my telescope.
SweetJane - SweetJane - I think you did.
- [ Both Laughing .]
- SweetJane SweetJane [ Grace.]
Oh, my GodI
