We're Both In Too Deep

Transcript

Hey. Hey. Wake up.

Oh, good, you're coming around. Shh, shh, shh, shh. No, no, don't—shh.

It's okay, it's okay, shh. Yes, yes, yes, you're tied to a chair. Just—I'm working What? I'm not going to hurt you, okay? No, no, look at me, look at me.

I'm not going to hurt you. I'm here to help you. Yes.

They put chloroform over your mouth and brought you here. Yeah, your cheek hurts because you took a hit first. I don't know what happened before that.

I only saw the last punch and the chloroform. You might be banged up, I don't know. They don't typically beat people up while they're unconscious because there's no reaction, so there's no fun in it for them, so you're probably okay, but I don't want to find out until I get you out of here, okay?

It doesn't matter who I am. Just consider me a friend, okay? Now let's get these off.

They're going to be back any minute. Um. Yep.

You do remember me correctly, yes? Well, this is how I dress and how I do makeup and how I do my hair when I'm not arm candy, so. Ugh, don't use that word, I'm not his girlfriend.

Ugh. Well, I mean, technically I am, but more like a servant, so. Why am I helping you? Oh, I know how bad it'll be for me if they find out.

Believe me, I know. Um. Alright, you want to know? Pumpernickel.

Yep, that's what I said. Pumpernickel. Yeah, I'm in deep too.

Three years now. No, no end in sight. I've been bringing down the bigger guys from the inside, and nobody's been any the wiser.

Yeah. Well, I'm kind of in the perfect position. Because I'm just a ditz, and nobody ever listens to me.

Oh, honey, can I have that diamond? It's really pretty, and I think it would go with my car. Yeah.

So, nobody listens to me, nobody pays attention to me. They talk about things when I'm in the room, and I'm just window dressing. So, I have a lot of information that they don't realize I have, and I've been using it.

But if they find out that's what I've been doing, I'm done. No. I may as well do as much good as I can before that happens.

My team, my captain, it's been three years. Most of them have been transferred in and out, moved on. I still touch base, but the check-ins are brief and perfunctory.

They know I'm out here, they know I'm alive, but I haven't needed anything in so long, it's like I don't exist anymore. I don't even know how I would get out if I wanted to. If anything went down, they wouldn't get here in time.

Okay, we got to get you out of here. Can you stand? Are you okay? Like I said, they don't typically hit people while they're unconscious because there's no payoff on that.

These are wonderful people we're dealing with. So, you should be able to. ..

Okay, good. I can't go with you. I can get you out, but I can't go with you.

No. Because after everything I know he's done, after everything I've seen, after everything I've heard, after everything he's done to me, I'm going to bring down the son of a bitch before I go. And I don't have enough yet.

I don't have enough to keep him behind bars for the rest of his life, and I don't have enough for his bigger associates to turn on him yet. That would be my preference, honestly. I'm not a violent person by nature, but if some of the bigger guys decided he was the leak and wanted to do something about it, I probably wouldn't say no at this point.

Oh, I know what he does, but everyone else does his dirty work for him. His hands are clean. It can't be.

.. No, no, it can't. ..

I'm not getting into this. I don't have enough. But when I do, even if it kills me, I'm bringing him down.

Okay, can we walk and talk, please? Quickly. They're gonna come back soon.

Yeah, they're pretty good at knowing how long the chloroform lasts. I woke you up a little bit earlier than typical to get you out of here. Let's go.

Okay, walk and talk, walk and talk. Let's go. So, what do you mean that's how your cover was blown? Yeah, you've been in for quite a while.

No, I heard his reaction when he found out that you were not who you said you were. He was shocked. You held your cover well.

That also means that it was about to get really bad for you in that room, but what happened? You went for it. He didn't do that hit himself.

No. No, he sent three guys to do that one. He did.

You were one of them. You're kidding. Yeah.

Okay, keep going. Keep going. The door's right there.

Go, go, go, go, go. We can talk about this when we get out. Shit.

No, there's footsteps. Go, go, go, go, go. Don't talk.

Just run. I can't. I can't go with you.

No, I'm not. You have enough. What do you mean you have enough? Okay.

You promise. You promise you have enough to bring him down. Okay, let's go.

I don't. Okay, go, go, go. Well, it's not much, but it's home for tonight.

Sorry, I didn't know I was going to be leaving, so I didn't think to grab cash or anything. I just had what I had, and this is all we can afford. Yeah.

Okay, so start talking. We couldn't talk on the bus, and it's been two hours, so can we get some details? Because I just left my undercover operation.

Probably put a price on my head, and I need to know what you have. Yeah, you said that. He was at that hit.

He pulled the trigger himself. He never does that. He what? That ring's been going for years, even before my time.

I could never figure out how it closed, who closed the loop. You figured that out? I, you know what? I get it.

I don't want to know what you had to do to figure that out. Just, just don't. You don't have to tell me that.

Okay, so you have proof of this? Like, you have hard evidence that is not going to get thrown out, is not going to disappear, as in it's not a person, and it's already been sent in. Shit.

No wonder you were tied to a chair. Okay, um, I mean, that alone, once they start digging into that, his men are going to squeal like fucking pigs. Oh my god.

I don't know what to think. Um, no, I'm, I was in so deep, I thought nobody gave a shit. For a good reason.

I mean, you play the part long enough, that's what you become. I was abandoned to that life, to him, and it makes my skin crawl that I spent three years there. Are you going to check in? Okay.

Um, I just have my, my burner that I keep on me at all times. Here, go ahead. Yeah, you text whatever you gotta text.

Thank you. I couldn't keep going like that. No, no.

And to be honest, when I found out you were a cop, I wanted to get you out before they took you out another way. Because I know what it's like. And you shouldn't be abandoned like I was.

Oh god. What are we going to do? We have no money, we have nothing.

Is your team going to actually show up? Because mine wouldn't. Um.

Wow, that was fast. Two hours. They'll be here in two hours.

Shit. All right, well, good. We have two hours to hope that they didn't follow us.

I don't think they could have because nobody saw us leave and they didn't see us get on the bus. The bus just kind of showed up. So, we're good.

Um. Oh, that cut on your face is terrible. Hold on.

Let me get something for that, okay? I'll be right back. It's amazing what a little soap and water will do to make you feel better.

Here, let me. May I? There.

Get that off of there. Yeah. Get all that.

Yeah, that. Thank you for getting me out. For taking me with you.

I know I said it already, but it's just starting to sink in that I'm out. I don't know what that means, I don't know what tomorrow's going to bring, but for right now, I'm free. And that's huge.

So, thank you. Okay, that's fair. Fair trade for getting you out as well.

We worked together. We made a good team. Yeah.

Yeah. I don't know what we would have done otherwise. Well, I know what would have happened otherwise, but.

There. Is that okay? Does that feel better? Okay.

Okay. No, no, don't apologize. There's a lot of adrenaline right now, and it was nice.

It was really nice. Really, really nice. Yeah.

Sit down. On the bed. Good.

Yeah. Sit down. On the bed.

Good. I'm not too heavy, am I? You kind of had an ordeal? Okay.

Oh. Let's get these off. Let's get these off.

What? Yeah, I'm sure I want to do this. I'm sitting in a little weird motel room in the middle of nowhere with a guy I kind of have known for a few months in a weird situation, and I'm free for the first time in three years.

There's a lot going on. So, yeah, I want to do this. And what I'm feeling under me right now, as I'm sitting here straddling your lap, tells me you do too.

We'll deal with tomorrow, or later, later, tomorrow, whenever, I don't care. Right now is just right now. Feels good when I move my hips against you.

I just want to feel something good after the garbage I've dealt with for the last three years. No, on my back is fine. Take my pants off.

Yeah, yours too. No, there's no time. Just do it.

Oh. Oh. You're being very gentle, kissing down my neck like that.

And my stomach. Yeah? Spread my legs, huh? Oh, your tongue.

Yes. Yes. Yes.

Oh, God. Yes, lick me. Lick me.

Oh, God, that feels so good. What? You're watching me? Don't make me self-conscious.

Oh, yes. Oh, God. What? Question.

Now? Can't we play 20 questions later? You were literally just.

.. Okay, I'm listening. Oh, that.

Well, valid question.
