Excuse me? I said Ms.
Archer had an affair with the head of the KGB for, like, 30 years.
Yeah, until he got blown up, Which was actually my fault.
Because she was busy having choke-sex with a murderous cyborg, who then became the new head of the KGB, Until I built a sexier one out of illegal Soviet parts and a corpse.
There was no shortage of dead bodies around ISIS! One of which belonged to the prime minister of goddamn Italy.
Oh, Jesus, I forgot about the Giant pol farm in West Virginia.

Oh.
Because speaking of sexual assault Which time? Because for one of 'em, I've got a pretty good excuse, Can I stop you? Please? That's what he said, Inappropriate.

No, no, no, no, no, taking a federal agent hostage is a separate charge.
Oh.
Well, then perhaps we should get him back on the phone.
I don't There's no need to bother the Look, if you'll just sign this form Doo-doo-doo, "in lieu of criminal prosecutions for doo-doo-doo treason, “I hereby forfeit ISIS headquarters, "and also agree to permanently cease and desist "any and all ISIS operations" Or face a mandatory sentence of life in federal prison without parole! "Signed, Malory Archer.
" Oh, my God! No! Uh-uh! Nope! Because correct me if I'm wrong, but that entire document is completely unenforceable! I correct you.
You are wrong, For God's sake, Sterling, it's the government.
Even if it weren't legal, they'd enforce it.
Hey, save it for four-ninths of the Supreme Court.
Oh, shut up.
And unless there's anything else? Uh, just this, releasing the Bureau from any claims relating to the death of your employee, Brett Bunsen? Oh, my God! What? Beakers boss! Bunsen frickin' Honeydew! Whoo! Oh! Oh, that was figuratively killing me.
I can't believe they're taking our building.
Screw the building.
What about our jobs? Oh.
And our health insurance, Which I'm pretty sure I'm gonna need.
I'll be your doctor.
Well, if I want Hitler's DNA spliced into him, I'll give you a call.
Yeah, I'm around.
Well, as for me, I think I'll start shopping my memoirs, How does the title Secrets and Silk grab you? Tightly, by my childhood's throat, Oh, you're just jealous.
Yeah, jealous of my fallback career, As what, an actual acorn? As America's number one country singer! And kudos, but for the rest of us, trapped in the realm of possibility I'm gonna be bigger than Mac Davis, and Mac Davis can totally suck it! And you can all suck it, because I am gonna play professional lacrosse.
Okay, even if that were a real thing ls it not? you are way too old.
I am not Oh, my God, I am way too old.
Welp, hope I'm not too old to get back into underground fighting.
Darn, all those jobs are awesome.
And by awesome, you mean delusional, Because it's gonna be hard to go back to an accounting firm after this job.
Especially after Mother gives you a shitty reference, Mother, do that.
I meant it'll be boring.
Although, I guess I could always go back lo being a defense attorney.
When were you ever a lawyer? Lana, we had long talks about this.
How I wen! to night school to pass the CPA exam because I was so burned out defending scumbags as a public defender? Numerous long talks! With me? Oh, for Well, don't come crying to me when that fatherless kid of yours buys a gun and steals a car, and he tries to run, but he don't get far! In the ghetto Where Mac Davis sucks it! You done? Are you done? Again, seriously asking, Yes.
So I guess we should talk about the elephant in the room, Namely What are we gonna do with literally, not figuratively, a ton of cocaine.
Well Oh, come on! What, Lana, we must be talking Wholesale? Uh Fifty, sixty million? Wholesale.
So what, we form a cartel? Well, how hard could it be? I mean Don't! If Mexicans can do it Fifty million dollars, Lana.
We sell this, and we're out.
I promise.
Dr.
Krieger has devised a way to transport the cocaine undetected.
You're probably gonna want to try to minimize the sweating.
We are gonna go ahead and take the cocaine and the money.
What do you mean "counterfeit"? The Yakuza? Amphetamines! Well, Pam screwed the Yakuza out of a million bucks of amphetamines.
So now they're gonna cut her head off, Baby, please don'! go Get down! Baby, please don't go Ron! Yeah, this is actually a little harder than I thought.
Because I don't fly.
