9-1-1. What's your emergency?
Welcome back to That Wee Woo Show,a podcast where we watch and discuss
episodes of the A B C show, 9-1-1.
I'm Ellen.
I'm Alice.
And I'm Bex.
Thank you to everyone who's been listeningto our episode so far and who has rated us
on their favorite podcast listening app.

(00:36):
Uh, we really appreciate it andwe hope that you're having a
great day, whatever you're up to.
This week we are continuingwith the, um, the heist that we
started in the previous episodes.
Uh, so let's find outhow that all went down.
Alice, do you wanna tell us whathappened last time on 9-1-1?
Uh, yeah.
So last week on 9-1-1, Michael andBobby went camping with Harry to keep

(00:59):
traditions alive while Maddie and Chimneytook the next step in their relationship
with exchanges of I love yous.
Although Maddie's was under duress asthe dispatch center was taken hostage.
Which is pretty much exactly whatthe summary, the official promotional
summary for this episode was.
Yeah, Maddie fears for herselfand her coworkers when the

(01:20):
call center has taken hostage.
That was it.
That was all we got, which wealready knew from last week.
What we didn't know from last weekthough, were the possible triggers for
this episode, which are as follows.
We have a minor car accident.
Uh, the aftermath of, we don'tactually see the car accident.

(01:41):
There is the generictrigger warning for cops.
There is gun violence.
There is a hostage situation.
There is threats of violenceand actual physical violence.
Workplace under threat.
There is an onscreen shooting.
There is the use of an EpiPen anda character being resuscitated.

(02:05):
Yeah, it's a very, um, actionpacked episode, this one, isn't it?
Lots of stuff packed.
It's so action packed.
Not enough talking, too much action.
You, you've just wrote writtennotes for the whole thing.
Um, it's, uh, it's an interestingepisode because like the other heist
episode that, or, maybe unlike theother heist episode that we've had

(02:26):
before, this one is just all, um,basically one day, one kind of event.
It's not like things that happened later,it's just the whole thing is one day.
So yeah, I think the pacing worksreally well for this because it's
just all one emergency rather thanhaving different bit different scenes

(02:47):
Before we start.
The Wiki would like us to know that thisepisode, which is about 9-1-1 dispatchers
being taken hostage, um, aired duringNational Public Safety Telecommunications
week, a special week celebratingand thanking 9-1-1 dispatchers.
Oh, well that's nice.

(03:10):
Just the irony.
I'm not sure if it's good timingor like really bad timing.
I don't know.
I just found it ironic.
I'm sure they did too.
Yeah.
Like, thanks?
That was really the only bit of triviathat I felt worthy of passing on.

(03:30):
Yeah.
Other than that, the, uh, titleof the episode is "The Taking of
Dispatch 9-1-1", which is riffing onthe film, The Taking of Pelham 123.
I think we mentionedthat in the last episode.
We mentioned that last episode.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Um, so at the beginning of this,we do have like a, a brief repeat

(03:53):
of what happened last time,but we get extra, extra sort of
introductory information at the start.
Well, interestingly, there was nopreviously on 9-1-1 and there was no
kind of reminder of where we left it.
It jumped straight into the newinformation, which I thought was

(04:15):
an interesting choice, consideringthat I think there was a two week
break at this point for these guys.
Right.
So the last thing...
that would've been nice tohave a bit of a reminder.
Yeah.
I mean, there, there was always therisk that, you know, someone sat
down, turned on expecting to see9-1-1, and instead they see like
Tiffany and Greg and like, wait.

(04:36):
What, where's my 9-1-1?
What am I watching?
Oh God.
Did it get canceled over two weeks?
They did go back into what happened inthe, at the end of the last episode.
Yeah.
So we kind of did geta recap a little bit.
We do.
It's, it's done quite well.
So we start with the, the classic heistmovie, introducing the members of the

(04:57):
crew with the, um, with the very, the,the classic, every time a new character
comes on screen, we get the, the freezeframe with very stylistic freeze frame,
with different coloring, um, and theirname and their role in the heist.
And just in order to speed this up,'cause we've got a lot to get through

(05:19):
in this episode, um, I'm just gonnago straight through and we meet
Tiffany, the driver who is late.
That's kind of the reoccurring theme forher, that she just has no concept of time.
We re, we remeet Greg, whois the captain of the heist.
We meet Ellis, who is his lieutenant,Oliver, who's the muscle and

(05:39):
Foster, who is the artillery.
So he has the weapons
Foster, AKA Voldemort.
Um, the actors who play these guysare, I don't know how you would say it,
they're in a lot of tv, like, and film.
One of, they're likea voice actor as well.
Like he's does a lot of game work.

(06:00):
The only one I recognized wasthe guy who plays Ellis, um,
who is called Assaf Cohen.
Assaf.
Okay.
Um, he was in Supernatural in thetaxi driver episode, um, where
Sam had to go to hell to rescueBobby's soul and take him to heaven.
Do you remember that one?
Oh yeah.
He was like the guy whowas the taxi driver.

(06:21):
But no, um, the others have beenin various things, like some of, a
couple of them were in, um, the, oneof the Thor movies and there's, you
know, a few others that have been in.
In Marvel, other movies as well.
And they've been in lots of tv.
So, you know, these are, you know,
working actors,
experienced actors.
Yeah.
Uh, once Tiffany has picked up all ofthe members of the crew, we see them in

(06:43):
the back of the van, Foster is passingout weapons, and we see that they're
dressed in, uh, black uniforms and they'reputting LAPD badges onto their jackets.
They then, uh, roll up intoa, I'm not entirely sure
where they are at this point.
Some kind of underground something.

(07:05):
If Alice, you recognize it.
'cause you said that you've beendriving around LA quite a bit in GTA.
Do you have any idea where
Yeah, there were a whole bunchof, um, there were a whole bunch
of locations at the start ofthis that I recognized from GTA.
Um, I think this was justlike under an overpass.
Okay.
Like it's just one of the tunnels.
I've definitely gone through it in GTA,but it's just like one of the tunnels.

(07:28):
But I dunno why there's no traffic there.
Yeah, I was looking at itthinking it was quite deserted.
Like why is it so quiet down there
constantly throughout this episode.
Like it's 8:00 AM on whateverday this is in LA and there is
almost no traffic on the roads.
Yeah.
Um, but yeah, definitely thereare no cars in this tunnel.
There is a giant tractor trailer,like giant B dub truck which

(07:51):
has LAPD cruisers inside it.
And we meet the final two membersof the heist, which is Van Cleef
and Arpels who are our thieves.
I'm wondering if it's actually like theback of a loading dock 'cause I'm just
rewatching it and there's like big, likewarehouse doors along it, but either
way it's like somehow very secluded.

(08:13):
Another random little fact aboutthis cast, um, Arpels heislayed
by a guy called Orson Chaplin,who is Charlie Chaplin's grandson.
Oh,
wow.
So there you go.
Uh, Greg is setting everybody up.
They get radios, they get administratorlevel key cards, which will get them

(08:39):
through every door at the call center.
And we are told that they have60 minutes to get in and out.
So then everybody gets into backin the van or gets in one of
the cruises and they head off.
Yeah.
And they're showing up to, to dispatch.
And they, it seems the guy at thefront desk had been expecting them.

(09:01):
They, they said that the,the ride alongs are today.
And he's like, yep, okay.
I'll just buzz you up off he goes.
Yeah, he actually swipes theminto the elevator that he uses.
His key card opens the getthe elevator door open swipes.
His card hits level three with theintention that they then have to have an

(09:26):
express trip, and the only place that theycan go is level three security measure.
That seems pretty reasonable.
Mm-hmm.
Except as soon as the doors shut,Greg whips out his key card and
overrides the security guard's keycard and takes 'em to level two first,
which apparently is the server room,
which is apparently where they keep Terry,

(09:48):
his little enclosure.
They scatter food down there.
Yeah.
And he like.
Oh, I thought Ellis asked if he's Terry.
Okay.
I thought Terry introducedhimself when they walked in.
He is like, Terry Flores,can I help you guys?
I'm like, well, that's a reallyweird way to to say hello to someone
when they come into the room.
But no, it was said,

(10:10):
although I don't know who else wouldbe down there, but yes, they have
to double check to make sure thatthat is actually ter um, Terry.
And because it is Terry, hegets a gun shoved in his face.
Lucky Terry.
Oh yeah.
So poor Terry is under siege.
He's like a hostage now.
Mm-hmm.
Um, the rest of the other three of themcontinue up to the actual dispatch floor

(10:34):
and Sue meets them at the elevator.
She knows that they're there.
And Greg even asked her like,how do you know we were here?
And then she does a little exposition elike, oh, this is my little tablet here
that shows me everything I need to know,and I know I can see everything with this.
And Greg's very interestedin how that works.

(10:58):
At, it's at this point that themath stops mathing in this episode,
because Sue says, and we remember herfrom saying from last week that she
thought that there were five of them.
Yeah.
But so far we, we've seen GregEllis and Oliver got out at

(11:18):
the service room, and we had
two, there were two more guys.
There were five of them in the elevator.
Right.
And then two got out in the server room.
Yeah.
We suddenly got, we've got, we haven'tbeen introduced to one of them.
So we've got Greg Foster and Goon number.
Really?
Yeah.
Okay.

(11:38):
I mean, there is rant.
They're all just like, youknow, middle aged white guys.
I, I don't like, I can'tkeep track of them.
There's too many of them.
Yeah.
Literally.
I have no
idea.
But we don't know this episode.
We don't know them at all.
We know their names, but that's it.
Yep.
Um, but yes, after we have been toldthat there are five of them again

(12:01):
and we start counting and it's prettysoon the math's gonna stop mathing.
Um, we do start looping back into,um, catching up to where we were
in the last episode of "Pinned".
So we see Maddie arrive at work andsay hi to Jake, the security guard
before she gets in the elevatorand heads up to the dispatch floor.

(12:22):
Uh, we have a brief look back inthe server room where Terry is doing
some things to the servers, um, whileEllis is pointing the gun at his face.
Um, he's trying to get Terryto take the system down.
He wants everything to go down, andTerry's like, 'Dispatch gonna go down,"
and, and, um, but Ellis knows that'swhat's gonna happen. He's like, they,

(12:47):
"it's gonna be down for seven minutes.
It just tell them it'stemporary maintenance."
The gun is, is very convincing.
So Terry does, as he says.
Um,
but it must take a few minutes for theactual reboot to kick in because we now
get a repeat of Maddie walking out of theelevator greeting Josh telling Josh that

(13:12):
things got kinky with a pelvic splint lastnight with Chimney, um, making note of the
quote unquote "big police presence", whichwhen I watched that again, I went, Maddie,
there's, you've only seen two of them.
How is that a big policepresence when you've seen
literally two cops on the floor?
Then we cut back to moreheisty stuff, which is, we need

(13:36):
to get Jake out of the way.
So Jake down in the lobby behind asecurity desk, gets a phone call from
Terry, who like, "oh my God, dude,I'm so sorry. I just locked myself out
of the server room. Can you come letme back in, um, right now, please."
And we find out that he's makingthis phone call under supreme duress
because he literally has the barrelof a gun pressed to his temple.

(14:01):
Yeah.
This episode's gonna be a lot of cuttingback and forth between the different
things that are going on in the heist.
And there's not heaps ofdialogue, but it's good.
Um, no, no.
It works really well.
No,
which makes really hard when I'm writing.
Yeah.
It's, it's just hard to describebecause there's, you know, stuff,
so much stuff going on all the time.
Yeah.
And in multiple places.
So,

(14:21):
and honestly, the, the first partof this episode where it's all
of this stuff that's a replayfrom Pinned, I haven't bothered.
To go into detail.
'cause I'm just like, like this part, Jakelocks the front door so that nobody can
get him in while he's not at the securitydesk and goes up to let Terry back in.
Meanwhile, we get a replay of Maddie'sconversation with Chim on the phone where

(14:42):
they're talking about the hotel room
Yeah.
And how the conversation'snot no longer safe for work.
And while that's happening, Jake hasreached level two and is rather confused
because if Terry locked himself out ofthe server room, then where is Terry and
why is the server room door wide open?

(15:05):
Yeah.
So he does come in and seesEllis and Terry, um, and with,
and the gun pointing at him.
Um, but they, but Oliver, who mustbe the other guy who was up in there?
I can't,
Oliver.
Ellis and Oliver went up.
So, yeah, Oliver.
Okay.
So Oliver tackles him.
And knocks him over and theydrag him behind the servers.

(15:28):
So
yeah, we haven't gotten to that part.
So we've just got, they,um, they knock him out.
Okay.
Getting ahead.
And then we go back down to dispatchand we catch up to the end of "Pinned."
So Maddie goes to her station.
Sue brings Officer Brown over, um, tointroduce Maddie to her ride along.

(15:51):
Josh has his, uh, mug drop momentwhen he recognizes Greg and Terry's.
And then, um, Maddie has to end her phonecall by telling Chim that she loves him
by telling Howie that she loves him,
telling Howie that she loves him.
And then that's the title card.
So all of this happened is likethe most chaotic, cold open

(16:15):
that an episode could have.
Yeah.
So when we come back from the title card,Terry's system reboot has kicked in and
that's why all the computers suddenlygo black, which kind of clears that up.
'cause from, from the end of"Pinned" was like all of a
sudden the computers go black.
Why do the computers go black?
Because Terry rebooted the system.

(16:37):
Yeah, it's good timing really,because he just kind of revealed
himself to the, to everybody
very dramatic.
And the, the computers went downand he went, "Oh, there we go
ladies and gentlemen. We aretaking control of this facility.
Do not move or you will be shot."
So, so this is terrible.
Extremely dramatic.

(16:57):
The poor, the poor 9-1-1, you know,dispatchers are forced to step away from
their computers and yeah, sort of herdedup with the guys who've got the guns.
Then we go back to the server room whereJake's unconscious body is dragged away
and they're gonna grab his uniform.

(17:18):
Yeah.
So Oliver is left behind to takeJake's uniform with the idea being
that Oliver is going to replaceJake down on the security desk.
Ellis takes Terry to take himback upstairs so that all the
hostages are one in one place.
But as he's leading Terry or forcingTerry towards the stairs, uh, they hear

(17:40):
a gunshot and Terry looks freaked out.
Ellis also looks a little shocked,and you kind of get the impression
that that wasn't supposed to happen.
And the implication, at least that Terrytakes away is that, and I think maybe
Ellis as well, is that Jake just got shot.

(18:01):
Yeah.
Yeah.
As far as we know, Jake's now dead.
Yeah, Jake got shot.
Poor Jake.
Um, so they've lined them up, um, allthe dispatchers and they're making
them empty their pockets, and they wantall the cell phones and everything,
and he gets along the line to Linda,and Linda has an epi pan in her hands,

(18:23):
and she says, I'm allergic to bees.
Um, and Foster, who's the guy who's makingthem do this, tells her that bees are the
least of her troubles today, sweetheart.
So makes,
I mean, to be fair.
Like, are there gonna be bees in dispatch?
I don't really, I mean, I, you, Iget You are attached to your EpiPen.
Yes.

(18:43):
But you just never know, I guess, but
More like, no, this thing's expensive.
You can't have it.
So yeah, she drops Chekov'sEpiPen into the, the waste paper
bin that they're handing around.
Um, Terry is, Terry and Ellisarrive and Terry gets shoved into
the lineup with everyone else.

(19:05):
Yep.
Um, and Sue is trying to be brave and Suetries to take control of the situation
and she tells Greg that somebody'sgonna notice when 9-1-1 stops answering.
But Greg has an answer for that.
He's like, "You had asystems crash, it's fine.
Valley's picking up the slack,your server's coming back online,
and then everything will be fine.

(19:29):
You're gonna get back to work.
But we are going to be supervising,we are gonna be monitoring all
the calls and approving allresources that you send out."
He also says that because the callvolume is usually low this early in
the morning, they don't need all thedispatchers on the floor at once.
So they split them all up.

(19:49):
Yeah, when he said that, I waslike, oh my God, what's he gonna do?
They're gonna shoot all of them,
You're gonna shoot some of them?
But no, they just take himinto the, into the corridor
and make 'em sit down and wait.
They split them all up.
So Sue ends up sort of on the floorat all times so that Greg could keep
an eye on her because he's obviouslyrealizing that she is the one in charge.
Um, and then they rotate between havingsome of the dispatchers at their stations.

(20:15):
There's a group of them in a conferenceroom, and there's a group of them down in
the corridor that Maddie goes into whenshe's trying to take private phone calls.
Yeah.
And Greg says that they're, they'reonly gonna be there for an hour, then
they're leaving, and if anyone triesanything... um, and Jamal goes, "You'll
shoot us?" and they're like, no.

(20:35):
And then they, one of the guys goesand just punches some other person
who's near Jamal and he's like,"We'll shoot the person next to you."
So we immediately get the idea that fothis was Foster, this is the gun guy.
He's going to be the loose cannon.
He's the one that doesn'tseem to mind hurting people.
I will say this for Greg, as muchof a dick as he is, he doesn't

(21:01):
seem to want to hurt people.
Yeah.
Like he's threatening.
He doesn't mind roughingyou up a little bit.
Like he's gonna haul you aroundand throw you around, but he,
he doesn't actuallywant anyone to get shot.
Shot.
Yeah.
He's got his plan.
We're just gonna come in,do our plan and get out.
Nobody's gonna get hurt.
It's fine.
This is gonna be a victimless crime.

(21:22):
Yeah.
He doesn't want more heat on them.
Ah, so are we, okay, sothey're in the corridor
and Maddie and Josh get, get put together.
Yeah.
And Maddie asked Josh, "how, howdid you know you dropped the guy?
Like you dropped the mug before theypulled the guns out," and Josh tells
her that he recognized Greg, this isthe guy who beat him up on the date.

(21:47):
And Maddie says "they, they targetedyou because you work here." So Josh
is like, "oh, this is all my fault.
We have to warn someone." AndMaddie says, "I already did.
I just hope he gets the message."
And then we cut to Chim,who is, who is so confused.

(22:08):
He is just, he is, he's tryingto talk himself out of panic.
Getting worried.
Yeah.
Like, yeah,
like he's more talking to himself.
He's, that's weird.
Like, is that weird?
That's weird, right?
Yeah.
I love that we do get a shot.
'cause he sent Maddie a series oftexts that she hasn't answered to it.

(22:30):
And the longer that she doesn'tanswer, the more texts he sends.
So he is blowing up her phoneand it's like, um, "Hey, that
was unexpected, but great.
Okay.
Maybe a little weird.
Call me when you can, Maddie.
Is everything okay?"
Yeah.
So the longer it goes,like he is spiraling.

(22:50):
Um, so he tries to call her and itgoes straight to message bank, which is
weird, but he is like, no, you're think
voicemail.
It's fine
if you're gonna be picking onme last week for Australianisms
Message Bank is voicemail.
What Telstra uses call their voicemail.
Telstra is one of the major carriersfor, um, it's like your AT&T in
America, but we, it's Telstra

(23:14):
for us.
So Chim gets a voicemail andthen we get a commercial break.
But after the commercial,Chim's still spiraling.
Like he's literally typed nine oneone into the phone and he is like,
"no, I'm not gonna be that guy.
Don't do it.
Don't be that guy.
Don't do it.
Don't do it."
He is trying so hard not to
do it.
And then calls 9-1-1,
I just, part of me wants toknow what would've happened if

(23:37):
actually everything had been fine,
literally I was about to say that.
Like, "Hey, I just wanna talk toMaddie." "Um, she's dealing with a
high, like with a hostage situation.
Like, can can she call you back?" "Oh yes.
My bad.
Sorry."
9-1-1. What's your emergency?
Hey, um, can I talk to Maddie please?
Can I talk to Maddie?
If Maddie's not availablecan I talk to Josh?
Uh,

(23:58):
like Sue writing Maddie up, like "can youtell your boyfriend not to call here?"
Um, but that doesn't happen.
But no, 9-1-1, there's likea recorded message that says,
sorry, we're experiencing ahigh call volume at the moment.
And Chim's like, it'seight in the morning.
What the hell?
So he calls...
'cause the last time they got...
someone

(24:18):
else,
that message was during theearthquake when the cell towers
got absolutely knocked out.
Unless you were Maddie and youhad magic cell phone powers,
magic baby delivering cell phone powers.
Yes.
Uh, so he.
Since he can't get through to one Buckley,he decides to try the other Buckley.

(24:39):
He, Chim answers like greets himby saying, "How come 9-1-1 doesn't
respond when I call?" And Bucksays, "Is that some kind of riddle?
Like, who watches the Watchmen?"Chim's like, "Neither of
those things are riddles."
Uh, so they, yeah, he's calling9-1-1 and he is got the high volume

(25:03):
message, but nothing's happened.
Like, did I miss something?
He's like,
which then it makes sense why he'scalled Buck because I'm guessing the
buck has been on shift while Chim wasoff shift having his date or something.
So if there was somethinghappening that would warrant high
calls, buck would probably know.

(25:23):
Mm-hmm.
That's the way I'm rationalizing this.
Aren't they normally alwayson shift together though?
It's fine.
Buck took up an extra shift.
It's fine.
Just keep going.
He probably was just outof the shops or something.
I dunno.
But the, the funny thing I thought wasthat when he was walking, like walking
around his apartment on the phoneand he, and he just walks past this

(25:46):
bike that's just hanging on the wall.
And I was like, whoa, that's, that's cool.
But like,
I love that decor, like it's purely decor.
We've never seen Buck on a bike.
Well,
not yet,
but yeah, he never uses it.
But
yeah, it's, it's purely decor.

(26:06):
It's there.
It's really cool.
Yeah.
It's, it's small room storage for bikes.
You hang them.
Yeah.
That's what my brother did at his, um,apartment when he lived at the apartment.
Very cool.
Anyway, so yeah.
Buck's trying to talk him,talk Chim out, down, basically.
Well, no, I, I love this cause he, Buckis concerned that Chim is calling him.

(26:26):
And then he's even more con confusedwhen Chim reveals that the whole
reason that he's calling Buck is, "Yoursister told me that she loves me." Yep.
Chuck's like "Wasn't that the wholepoint of the date last night?"
And Chim has to explain like yes and no.
"Look, she made this big deal abouthow she couldn't say those words to me

(26:48):
and then she says those words to me,but then hangs up on me. That's weird."
Yeah.
And Buck's like "this notsounding like it's emergency.
Like what?
Why, what's what the hell?" Andthen Chim's like, "You know what?
Forget it." And then he just hangs up.
Yeah.
He realizes as he is talkingthat he sounds insane, but he
is like, I swear I'm not insane.
However, I feel insane.

(27:10):
Alright, so back on theactual dispatch floor.
Um, 9-1-1 is working again andthe dispatchers are taking calls.
Um, um, and.
Linda is, has taken a call where therewas the, uh, the car accident, right?
There was a, an accident on the cornerof ninth and Los Angeles Street,

(27:32):
and then Ellis, he's basically justtaken over the whole of dispatch.
Right?
He's, he's, he's like really good at this.
Like he seems professional.
He's got Linda's special little pad.
Um, and yeah, he's theone who is monitoring,
he's like running the whole thing.

(27:52):
Yeah, he's doing Sue's job andyeah, he's doing really good job.
He's got really goodcustomer service voice.
You would not know that hehad taken everybody hostage.
He sounds very professional, um,except for the fact that he literally
yanks the headset out of Linda's ear.
Um,
yeah.
Kind of rude,
which I don't understand why Linda has aheadset in, because apparently everybody

(28:14):
in the room can hear every single call.
Because the person on the, the,the caller, the 9-1-1 caller says,
um, that they're calling from thedowntown, the corner of ninth and Los
Angeles Street, Sue and Ellis, whoare on the other side of the floor.
Their heads whip around so fast.
I'm surprised they don't need to....
Yeah.
They can also hear it somehow

(28:34):
see chiropractors becausethey've heard that.
I'm like, how did you hear that?
It was in Linda's ear.
Neither of you haveheadsets on at this point.
Um, at which point Ellis literallybounces across the room and yanks
the headset from Linda's ear sothat he can take over the call.
Um, it's not quite Gloria bad, but he'spretty much just, "can you guys just
push the cars outta the intersection?"

(28:56):
Yeah.
Like you guys do it.
Bye.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But he does tell themthat help is on the way.
Like they're gonna send someone
help is on the way, dear.
Uh, and he tells Linda thatno one goes into that area.
Yeah, they do say that it's,now it's time to rotate.
So they grab the people who havebeen sitting at the desks and

(29:21):
take them to the corridor orwherever they were stashing them.
And other people are, you know, madeto come and answer calls instead.
And Linda's like, tells Maddie orwhispers to Maddie as she goes past,
"They don't want anyone downtown."
Yeah.
So now they know wherethey're trying to protect.

(29:43):
Meanwhile, downtown, 'causeof course she's downtown.
Yeah.
Right in the middle of everything.
Athena always not realizingthat she is, but she is.
No, no.
Um, Athena Athena's cruising in hervehicle talking to May, um, updating her.
Apparently the menfolk are ontheir way back from the campsite.

(30:06):
And then Athena has to cut theconversation short because she is now
on the corner of ninth and Los AngelesStreet, and she has come across the
multiple vehicle collision, whichlooks like it's just a fender bender.
It's not really as severe asLinda was making it out to be.
Yeah.
And the peop, there are peoplepushing the cars out of the

(30:27):
intersection as Ellis asked them to.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And two people arehaving an argument like,
oh, I love these twoyelling at each other.
They're like, it was yellow.
It
you jackass.
It was irresponsible.
Athena's like, why don't you each go toyour own car and we will sort this out?

(30:48):
And then the guy's, like, we were inthe same car, and the woman that's
yelling at him sort of points athim is like, that's my husband.
Yeah.
Um, and Athena's just like, okay.
So obviously she hasn't, she'sjust come across this accident.
She wasn't called to come here by 9-1-1.
Yes.
So the woman's confused is like,"why isn't that why you are

(31:11):
here? Someone called 9-1-1."
So the, so Ellis gets on the radio andasks her, they're requesting you at
like Sunset for an assault and battery.
So off you go, you know,
way further away.
Go away.
Yeah.
Athena's like, "I'm at ninth and LosAngeles, there's an accident here." And

(31:33):
Ellis is like, no unit's already on route.
Get outta there.
Just please leave.
Please leave.
So she leaves and I think as sheleaves the, the woman who was
involved in the accident, it's likerolling her eyes going, whatever.
Just,
we'll keep moving the cars outta the way.
I guess.
She's not having the best day.

(31:55):
And then we.
Realize as after we have seen Athena drivethrough the very, very empty, very, very
quiet streets of Los Angeles, that Ellisis watching her car on his magic iPad.
So he has seen that she has respondedto the call and that's why he
has requested her to attend theassault and battery down on Sunset.

(32:17):
Yeah.
So she gets out of the way andwe get, and we see Tiffany who is
in the van still, and Ellis tellsher that she's clear for delivery.
So she grabs a box from her passengerseat and gets out of the van.
Um, she goes over,

(32:38):
yeah, she's driving like a, a whitepanel van, which at the moment says
that she's from Marathon couriers.
At the moment?
Delivers.
Does it change costume?
Yes, it does.
Right.
Okay.
I think they've got like magneticstickers and they keep changing the
stickers on the side of the van,depending on what Tiffany's doing.
It's very clever.
They thought of everything.

(32:58):
Yeah.
I mean, it's a, it's areally complicated plan.
Tiffany's just in a white, um,polo shirt, so, and a white cap.
And she keeps changing the badgeson her shirt and cap, depending
on what van she's driving.
Interesting.
Yeah.
Um, but she delivers a box to whatessentially looks like a fire door that

(33:21):
has no sort of external way of gettinginto a building, which seems a little bit
suss until you realize what she's doing.
Yeah.
So she puts the box down andadjusts it until she's happy.
Like, I don't know how she getsthis angle just right, but.

(33:42):
It overloads, the security camerathat's on the side of the building
that's across the intersection.
Um,
yeah, there's something in the box
and it kills it.
Yeah.
So it was at this point that I was like,if they've got this technology that can
disable a camera just by shining a laserat it or whatever they're doing, why do

(34:05):
they need guns to get into the dispatch?
Like, it just seems likeunnecessarily risky.
Yeah, I was the same.
I was like, what?
Why do they need dispatch?
I don't understand.
But I mean, it's to keep the, 'cause it,it triggers off the alarm when the cameras
go down, which is what we see next.
And they need to keep the, they need tokeep the cops away from the investigating

(34:27):
the alarm until they're like, it's,it, it's so complic complicated.
The plan is very convoluted.
I ju I don't know.
It, it worked, it would've worked if,if it hadn't been for those pesky kids.
I.E. Chim and Buck.
Pretty much.
Yeah.
So, yeah, she overloads the thing,the, the, the alarm goes off and

(34:49):
Sue gets a, a, you know, here's thesound that the iPad makes, which is
an automated alarm and says that,you know, that's a security alarm.
We usually send someone to that.
So this is, um, a little bit of a,a funny point because when Tiffany
disables the security alarm, the camerapans up from where Tiffany was to do

(35:14):
a long lingering shot on a specificbuilding, which is meant to be the
scene of where the heist goes down.
And I was pretty sure that if I had been.
Los Angeles native that Iwould immediately go, oh,
hey, it's that building.
Um, because it felt like it had,
it's quite a, um,distinctive looking building.

(35:35):
Exactly.
But being Australian, I have nofucking clue what that building is.
So I did a, I took a photo of it andthen I, like Google Image, searched it
and found out that it is the Walt DisneyConcert Hall, the LA Philharmonic.
You know what's funny is I recognizedit from the Get Smart movie.

(36:02):
I just assumed it wasan actual art gallery.
Are you saying it's notan art gallery at all?
It's just,
it's not an art gallery.
It's like a concert hall building.
It's a concert hall.
Um, so that's like the,that's like hilarious.
'cause I love that the fact that the.
Um, they've got all this, like real lateron it becomes that they display the art
like they display pictures at a school.
Like they've got the art lining, thehallways of this, um, concert hall.

(36:25):
Like you have the art lining, the,the hallways of a primary school.
Um, but we'll get back to that'cause I think that's hilarious.
But the point that I wanted to makehere is that it is the Walt Disney
Concert Hall, but when we get ashot of Sue's magic iPad, it comes
up as the Pacific Concert Hall.
Because I'm guessing Fox didn'twanna pay to name drop Walt Disney.

(36:49):
Yeah, fair enough.
Fair.
Which is amusing because now9-1-1 is owned by Disney.
Well, it's owned by ABC, but Disney hadthe rights to stream it in Australia.
Um, ABC is owned by Disney.
ABC is also owned by Disney.
Excellent.
Yeah.
So yeah, I thought that was,is, that was quite funny.

(37:12):
But anyway, um, so with the securityalarm going off, which everybody in
the room thinks is so funny, oh my God.
There's a security that's goneoff in first of grand, whoever
thought that would've happened, Gregalerts the Rover team to go fetch.
They rotate out the dispatches.

(37:32):
Um, and we cut to 19124 Sunset,where Athena has been sent by Ellis.
I can't believe their streetsare so long that they have like
a 19,000 addresses on them.
That's crazy.
I mean, we do have that in Australiaon, on long highways, for example,

(37:54):
but not in a middle of a city.
Yes.
As far as I know.
I don't know.
Anyway
If you had a road longenough to, to warrant that.
You'd suddenly get cross streets andit would change names and then start
Yeah, it often changes namesbefore it gets that high.
All right, so Athena shows up, um,and there's already police there that

(38:18):
the guy who's, what, what is that theofficer's name who we see all the time?
Williams!
My friend.
Officer Williams.
Yeah, he's there.
Yeah, he's there all the time.
Um, there's, she's sort of looking at,she doesn't even get out of the car.
She just looks at them and goes, "Youmean to tell me it took four of you to
subdue a two person brawl and then youcalled for me?" And Williams is looking

(38:41):
at her going, "We didn't call you." SoYeah, obviously the, all of the cops
that were hanging around, um, the guysin dispatch have just sent them all to
this place to get them out of the way.
I think so.
Yeah.
Um, dispatch, uh, the other officer,so not Williams, there's another
one there who is, um, not currentlyapprehending one of the suspects.

(39:07):
He blames dispatch on having a, uh.
A late night last night and Athenacalls back to dispatch to like,
"Hey, is there any reason that we'reall having a party out on Sunset?"
Um, the call goes through to Jamal thistime and Ellis immediately takes over.

(39:29):
Yeah,
with his amazing customer service persona.
Like, "so sorry Sergeant, we'rehaving some technical difficulties.
Apologies for the mixup." Athena's like, "Yeah.
Okay, cool.
By the way, that car accident iseverything fine?" Like "Everything's fine.
Don't you worry about it."
Like, yep.
Ignore the car accident.
Don't think about it.

(39:49):
These aren't the droidsyou're looking for.
Yeah, he's really good at it.
Maybe if he is a good boy inprison, they'll let him be a
dispatcher when he gets out orwork in some sort of call center.
I dunno if he'll getthe security clearance.
Or maybe he can work for like the,an internet provider call center

(40:13):
maybe.
Um, okay, so at the concert hall,which is not Coldwell Disney Concert
Hall, in this, uh, universe mm-hmm.
Um, we, we have, we the security lettingthe, the thieves, who it is are called
Van Cleef and Arpels, um, letting them in.
And they're saying that like, weneed to, we need to check with, with

(40:38):
dispatch to make sure, um, you guysare, you know, allowed in or something.
Is that what they say?
That "we need verification beforeyou, we let you in," basically.
You can't come in unless weknow that you're really here for
Security is a little bit like hesitantto let Van Cleef and Arpels in there.
Like "guys, the, um, thecameras went down for a minute.
It's fine.

(40:59):
It was probably just a power surge.
We told the securitycompany, everything's fine.
Y'all don't need to come in.
Um, and, but if you are gonna be here,we need to contact dispatch to get
the authorization and verificationthat you are, who you say you are
before we let you into our concerthall," which is apparently now a

(41:20):
low grade impressionist art museum.
So apparently within the concerthall, it's not, it's not even just
art on the hallways, the walls of thehallway and in the lobby it isn't.
They're claiming thatthat's an actual museum.
It's Museum one 11, but it's justthe lobby of the concert hall.

(41:43):
Oh, right.
Yeah.
Okay.
Still not gonna be high enoughsecurity for all of the impressionist
artists that they've got.
'cause there's, I don't even know how muchone of those pieces is gonna be worth.
Van Cleef does give his verificationto the security officer.
It's at the end of his rifle and itgoes straight into the back of his head.

(42:05):
Yes.
He doesn't shoot him, hejust hits him with it.
He
just, yeah.
Um, and then both securityofficer, other guy.
Yeah.
He just gets a gun pointed at himand then they both get duct taped
and tied up in the men's bathroom.
Yep.
So they head out the back where, orto a loading dock of some sort, um,
where Tiffany is waiting and shehands them some bags to put things in

(42:30):
and off they go to do the thieving.
See, and now the van that Tiffany'sin says, Harmony Sound Transport.
Oh, right.
Which would make moresense at a concert venue.
Hey.
And the, because we see later on,like, they put the artwork into sort
of big black cases, which kind oflook like sound equipment cases.

(42:54):
So Josh is taking a call.
And from this woman who is callingbecause they put green onions in her
omelet and she told them that she wasallergic, but she's not actually allergic.
She's not actually allergic.
But they didn't know that.
And Josh is like, "What thefuck? Like you can't, you can't

(43:15):
call 9-1-1 because someone madeyou the wrong breakfast order."
And like it's bad enough.
He has to put up with being held hostage.
Now he has to deal withnonsense 9-1-1 calls.
That's, yeah.
He looks so nervous and just like,really, seriously, is this what
you're coming to me with right now?
I know.
I feel awful for Josh.

(43:36):
It doesn't help that Greg, who apparentlycan hear this call as well, comes over
and kind of whispers in Josh's ear andkind of shoves this back in his face.
He's like, "Do you still feellike you're making a difference?
I bet this woman really thinksyou are. God, what is that word?"
And then we get a flashbackback to Greg's date.

(43:56):
Um, with Josh where Josh was sayingthat, you know, being a 9-1-1 dispatcher,
you know, he'll never be rich, butat least he'll be "worthwhile".
Yeah.
It's, they made theflashback and everything.
It made you skin crawllike it's really well done.
It's just like he's whisperingin his ear sort of thing.
It's like, oh, horrible.

(44:18):
But it does, Josh does, it motivates him.
Yeah.
'Cause he tells the woman that making a false report to 9-1-1 is a crime
and he's going to send the police.
But as he's talking, he'sback spacing out her current
location, which is Wilshire again.

(44:38):
I don't know which one.
'cause there must be likeseven of them at this point.
Um, and starts typing a different address.
So he, Greg asked him if he feels betterand he says, you feel better, big guy.
Josh is like I do.
So they, they put, they rotate themout, basically grabs Josh and Jamal

(45:00):
and sends them back to the holdingplace and grabs two new people and
Jamal's sort of questioning why theykeep moving them around like this.
And Maddie says, it's sothat we can't make a plan.
We can't, like none of us knowthe full details, so we can't
decide what to do basically.

(45:21):
Yeah.
They're keeping them separate long enoughso that they can't really chat in theory.
Makes sense.
And she looks over to see that Terryis sort of shaking basically in place.
He's not looking well.
Maddie asks him if he's okay and he says,"I don't wanna die in here." And mad

(45:43):
tries to reassure him, but he said thatthat's when he said that "Jake's dead.
They shot him," and.
Everyone's sort of shockedwhen they hear this.
And, um, Jamal says theyhave to get a message out.
And then Josh says that "a womancalled about onions in an omelet.
And I dispatched an officer,", andMaddie says, "To the restaurant?" And he

(46:07):
goes, "Not exactly." So then we cut toChim, who is on the phone to Buck again,
because clearly he can't let this go.
He's worried he's
still, he's still spiraling, but he'sgone beyond just trying to call Maddie.
Now he's considering storming the 9-1-1dispatch center to talk to Maddie.
Face to face.

(46:27):
Yeah.
Um, and Buck is now kind of on board withthe panic because he's now tried calling
Maddie and Josh isn't picking up either.
Um, which, you know, justseals the deal for Chim.
Um, he says, "Now I'm definitelygoing," but before he can go,
there's a knock on the door.
Um, and Buck is stilllike, he's still spiraling.

(46:51):
He's like, "What if something is wrong?
Maybe we should call the police." Chimanswers the knock on the door and says
"Somebody already did." And we pull backto reveal that it was Athena standing
at his door looking as surprisedto see Chim as Chim is to see her.
Yeah, I guess she hasn'tbeen to Chim's place before.

(47:14):
I don't think so.
I can't imagine why.
I actually saw an interesting commentonline when I was looking up just stuff
about this episode where basicallylike if you get put in a hostage
situation and they're not wearing masks,that's when you should be panicking
because it means that they don'texpect anyone to identify them later.

(47:38):
Oh, I think Maddie says somethingabout that later on, doesn't she?
I'm not too sure, but yeah, Maddie'sdefinitely like panicking a bit.
Yeah, Linda starts like, "Whathappens when it's time to leave?"
And Maddie's like, "They're not goingto, they're not gonna wanna leave
behind a room full of witnesses."
Yeah.
It's very concerning.
Hmm.

(47:59):
So Athena has called her captainto just discuss it with her.
Uh, and Chim is in the backgroundtalking to Buck on the phone still.
Um, and Buck keeps askinglike, "what is she saying now?"
Yeah.
Buck's very involved in this now
and Athena tells Chim that she, thecaptain doesn't think that there's

(48:25):
like, an "I love you" is not greatevidence for something being wrong.
So.
Um, but Chim's like, but they sent youdown to my apartment for an assault with
a deadly onion that feels more convincing.
So they're gonna try.
She says, oh, she's gonna talkto operations and see if we
can get eyes on the building.

(48:46):
And this is when Buck sort of buttsin because he's on speaker now,
so he can talk to Athena as well.
And he says he's, he's been obviously beenwatching too many, um, heist movies, and
he knows what's the, what the deal is.
He's like, "Oh, we can't just send in theswat. If there's someone inside the call

(49:07):
center doing something, they'll know we'reonto them." So Athena decides they're
gonna go for a drive and "Talk to youlater, Buck," and buck's like, "No, don't
hang up. Don't hang up!" But he hangs up.
Chimney hangs up, and then Buckwaits like all of three seconds
before going like, fuck this.

(49:28):
Grabs his keys, grabs hisjacket, and he's out the door.
Yeah.
Like, oh man, Buckley,don't do something stupid.
You're gonna do something stupid.
I know you're gonna dosomething stupid, but
That doesn't sound like Buck.
Buck doesn't do something stupid.
No, he's gonna be abig damn hero about it.
Okay, so it's go time.
It's go time at the concert hall.

(49:51):
At the concert hall slash museum, we geta quick shot of the security desk showing
the interior cameras, um, losing signal.
So Van Cleef and Arpels are, um,completely unsupervised as they
run around and start pullingpieces of art off the wall.
The only one I actually looked upwas the one that we see Van Cleef

(50:16):
actually pull off the wall to startwith, and that is a Degas piece
called Woman Viewed From Behind.
And ironically, she is at a museum.
But, so she's looking at art and thenshe's being painted looking at art,
which then hangs in a museum where peopleare looking at her, looking at art.

(50:37):
It's like one of those picturesthat just keeps going and going.
Mostly, I just wanted to make sure thatit was actually an impressionist art.
'cause I didn't trust thatthe 9-1-1 writers would pick
impressionist artists to hang intheir impressionist art gallery.
But it was,
yeah.
And it's weird because when he, ashe pulls it away from the wall, these

(51:00):
little like balls come out of it.
I could not figure outwhat the fuck they were.
No, I was just assuming itwas like something that would
trigger the alarm system.
I think they're, um,just to help it hang up.
Oh.
But he's got like thelittle dentist mirror.
He sort of runs it along the bottom at theframe to find the little balls and like.

(51:23):
What?
If anybody knows anything abouthanging art in lobbies of concert
halls,
hang on.
Hang.
Lemme me check the thing.
'cause I used to hang art at work.
Okay.
But if you do hang art in lobbies ofconcert halls, especially impressionist
art that you know needs full security,um, is this how you would hang it?
Would you have these little ballbearings tucked behind the frame?

(51:45):
Would that be enough tokeep it secure for you?
Oh, it's lit. I think it'sliterally just to keep the frame
straight by the looks of it.
What the fuck?
Like weights in the in?
Yeah.
Like not weight.
It's just stopping the framefrom like going down the wall.
Yeah.
Like to tipping away from where it's hung?
Yeah.
Hmm.

(52:06):
Um, okay.
But while this ishappening, the needle drop.
Yes.
I was a little bit disappointedthat it wasn't the remix.
'cause I love the remix.
Yeah.
So we've got "A Little LessConversation" by Elvis playing.
Yeah, the remix is good.
You're right.
But this is the original, so we do geta little more action, um, in that we, we

(52:28):
see the thieves cutting the, um, artworksout of their frames and wrapping them
up in and putting them in their boxes,trunk, things that look like music
cases and wheeling them down to the van.
Um, and in, in in between that, wealso see what's happening at dispatch.

(52:49):
So they're directing all the trafficaway and swapping dispatchers in and out.
So I dunno how often they'reswapping them around, but it seems
like it's fairly, it's only a fewminutes at a time kind of thing.
Yeah,
it does seem pretty quick, yeah.
We also find out that Van Cleef and Arpelsare not going as fast as Greg would like

(53:09):
them, because remember, they've gottabe in and out in under an hour and.
When they get a status report from Roverteam, which is Van Cleef, Arpels, and
Tiffany, Tiffany reports back that they'veonly got four pieces of art, which is
apparently only a third of their list.
Um, and the reason that it's takingthem so long is it's taking, uh, longer

(53:32):
than they expected to get the art outof the frames, and Greg's just like,
well then take the fucking frames.
And Tiffany says, no, we can't do thatbecause the trackers are in the frames.
Take the frames we're going to, it'sjust going to put a big beacon on
where the artwork is being taken.
Um, and Greg's just like,I don't fucking care.
Just go faster.

(53:54):
We're on a time crunchier woman.
Um, and everyone's getting very antsy.
Yeah, a little bit worried about this.
Chim's also looking really worried.
Chim's looking worried.
Athena is, uh, asking him.
She's, she says, "You'requiet. Should I be worried?"
It's like.
Well, my girlfriend is stuck inthe dispatch with potentially,

(54:18):
we don't know what's going on.
Um, are you not worried?
But anyway, um, Chim's does say thathe's freaked out and "At least now
I've got a partner in this," andAthena's like, "We are not partners.
You are here.
So I can keep an eye on you and makesure you don't do anything foolish."
And speaking of foolish,

(54:39):
a, a fool in a Jeep.
Very familiar Jeep, I swear "Fools"was a couple of episodes ago, but, um,
yeah, very, very familiar Jeep overovertakes the squad car at high speed.
Yeah, in the middle of this, I don't know.
I mean, I'm, I'm assuming he, he wasdoing it on purpose to get them to stop.

(55:00):
Yeah.
Yeah.
He was getting Athena's attention,
but um, she's like, "Isthat who I think it is?"
But yeah, she pull over the, pullsover the Jeep and as she goes to like
the driver's side window, Buck's,just like, "Okay, now don't be mad."
He's still so terrified of her.
I love it.

(55:21):
But yeah, so he gets shoved intothe back of Athena's Cruiser and
Chim's just like, "Hey, Buck,"
Once again, I have the big question markof did Buck get handcuffed because as he's
being shoved into the back of the cruiser,Oliver has put his hands behind his back.
Yeah, just like he did whenhe was put into hospital jail.

(55:43):
Why would she handcuff him though?
I dunno.
But he has, Oliver has this thing ofwhen he's in trouble with Athena, he
just, like the submissive part of himjust kicks in and he puts his hand
behind his back, which just makesit look like he's been handcuffed.
He's not.
That's just like the Oliver Starkacting choice of when faced with the
Wrath of Angela Bassett, I'm goingto like roll over and show my belly.

(56:04):
Yes.
And she does say to them, "Did youtwo tell anyone else what's happening
at the call center?" And they bothlook like naughty little boys.
They're like, no.
She says, "Good, because I'm runningoutta room in here." So they head
towards dispatch and Ellis uh,notices on his magic tablet that, uh,

(56:28):
Athena's little car is coming back.
So he said, tells Greg, "Hey,we've got a problem here." And
Greg's like, they're all "Yeah, I know.
We're already, we have a problem.
I knew we've got a problem." andEllis is like, "no, new problem."
Another problem.
Yeah.
And she's, they work out that she'sactually pulling into the, you

(56:50):
know, here and Athena's ears prickup and, sorry, Sue's ears prick up.
She's like, "what's happening?"
We gonna get rescued?
So Athena is gonna go in and takea look around and see if everyone
forgot to charge their phone.
The security camera at the frontpicks up on her, and Oliver is at
the front desk and he sees that she'scoming in and tells them on the radio

(57:15):
every time we, we say Oliver's somewhere.
I'm just like, think you mean Buck,
yeah, I know.
No, I actually actually mean Oliver.
Oliver, the bad guy.
I'm really surprised that theydidn't go, like, it's obviously Van
Cleef and Arpels are a, a pseudonym.

(57:35):
I am really surprised they didn'tgo like full Reservoir Dogs and
just have them all named a color.
'cause we had Officer Brown atthe beginning, so I don't know why
they didn't just keep with thatand have everybody have a color
name or have some kind of fun name.
Yeah.
Rather than their actual government names.
Yeah.
But anyway, Oliver sees Athena approachingand he is like, "guys, there's a cop

(57:57):
coming. What do you want me to do?" Um,
yeah.
And she see, she said, comes in andsays, "I'm here to follow up on a call.
Do you mind if I go up?" AndOliver just goes, "Yeah, sure."
Yeah.
Literally just okay.
It's so funny
He just panics and goes, okay, okay.
And then she walks away and his facejust goes, what the fuck did I just say?

(58:19):
Yeah.
Like, what the fuck do I do now?
Um, she's coming up,
Foster's the, the gunman, Voldemortas Alice has been calling him.
He's got a really simple solution.
Just shoot her.
Yeah.
Way to go Voldemort,
which everybody, yeah.
And he's like totally on boardwith like, Oliver's like, okay.

(58:40):
Uh, well he is like,
at first he says, are you serious?
Yeah.
And Foster's like, yeah,just, just shoot her.
Um, and Oliver, is.
"Yeah. Yeah. Okay." Pulls his gun out.
Um, Ellis and Greg aren't involvedwith that, so he's like, I didn't,
Ellis's didn't sign up to kill acop, and Greg agrees, like none
of us signed up to kill a cop.

(59:01):
He obviously doesn't know about Jake.
So he does, he's not, he doesn'trealize that they possibly already
have a fatality on their hands.
He thinks everything's above board.
But Sue is listening to them arguingbackwards and forwards, and she decides
that she has a really simple solution andshe can get rid of her, her being Athena.

(59:23):
So Sue calls Athena by her call sign.
Um, and tells her they've got areport code of a code 77 at Eagle
Rock Lanes, which is hilarious thatthere is a street called Eagle Rock.
Eagle Rock Lanes.
Um, but yes, so Athena turns aroundbefore she gets into the elevator and

(59:45):
says, "oh, I'll have to follow up later."
And Oliver's like quicklyhiding the gun again.
Yeah.
Is that's a Athena goes,"I hope your day is quiet."
It's a really clever move on Sue's partbecause we later find out that the code
that she gives Athena was also a warning,but even Sue herself going over the radio
would immediately throw red flags upbecause Sue is not a dispatcher anymore.

(01:00:09):
She doesn't work the radios.
So for Athena to hear her voice over theradio, she knows that something has gone.
Yeah, Greg says that she dida good job and Sue doesn't
wanna see anyone getting shot.
And tells
he seems very impressed with Sue.
They don't even check the call sign.
Yeah.
He's like, okay, yeah, that'sthe, I'm sure it's fine.
He just "What's the code 77?"And Sue says, "oh, urinating

(01:00:31):
in public or something.
Mm."
"It's been a while since I workedthe radio." Which should have been
like the immediate, like, what doyou mean you don't work the radio?
Yeah.
But anyway, Athena immediately getsin her car and calls Eileen and it's
like "Sue Levins is on the radio,um, and she's giving me the code 77,"

(01:00:56):
and Chim goes, "what's a code 77?"
Apparently.
And this is an accurate codeaccording to the Wikis page.
Um, a 77 is ambush, proceed with caution.
Yeah.
Hmm.
I don't remember this scene at all.
How, how have I missed a complete scene?

(01:01:17):
She's poking under the, under the hood?
Yeah, she's got the hood open.
Um, basically Athena realized that they'reusing CAD to track her movements, which
means that she's pulling out the GPS fromher car so that they can't track her.
Yeah, that's the wholepoint of that scene.
So yeah, she pulls out the GPS, thescreen goes blank, so she's like done it,

(01:01:42):
which sounds like a really goodidea, except then she suddenly
goes completely blank off Ellis'sdisplay and he starts freaking out.
'cause he should still be able tosee her and he can't see her anymore.
But while Ellis is panicking, Chimis starting to panic even more.
Yeah, he is like, no, Buck tells him that.

(01:02:03):
"Don't be worried.
Um, Maddie is smart.
She can take care of herself until helpgets there." And Chim's wondering, um,
you know, "Nobody inside the buildingknows that we are coming for them.
And what if they get tired of waiting?"
So he, like, they know something'shappening in there now, but
they have no idea who is doingit or how desperate they are.

(01:02:26):
Yeah.
So, yeah, Ellis is freaking out andwe do, and we do find out that Linda
and Maddie are also wondering what'sgonna happen when they get tired of
waiting, you know, if they killed Jake,Maddie says they're not gonna wanna
leave behind a room full of witnesses.
Ellis is seriously freaking out aboutthe fact that he can't find Athena.

(01:02:46):
Foster is just like, "If you let Olivershoot her, we wouldn't have this problem."
And Ellis is like, "you can't just solveevery problem with by killing people,"
and Foster's like, "oh, maybe not, butit would've solved this problem." Um.
He pulls his gun on Ellis andEllis responds by body slamming him

(01:03:09):
through a conference door, conferenceroom window, which is not good.
You don't really want to see your, um,your hostage takers kind of fighting.
No, they're losingcontrol of the situation,
Massively losing control,
and Greg is losing control of them.
'cause he's, he can't break them apart.
He's yelling at them to knock it off.

(01:03:30):
He's trying to pull them apart.
Meanwhile, Terry has realizedthat everyone is distracted and
he's eyeing the fire alarm on theother side of the dispatch floor.
And when Greg wades into the fray totry and stop Ellis and Foster from
like, doing whatever they're doing,he starts sprinting across the floor.
Yeah.
And they, they do noticethat he's doing that.

(01:03:52):
Greg tries to stop him and Foster,who's the Voldemort guy, um, tries
to like, aims his gun towards him andhe would've shot him, but Josh came
along and tackles him and he does firethe gun, but he doesn't hit anybody.
Thank goodness.
No, the shots go wild

(01:04:13):
and so Foster hits Josh with thebutt of the rifle and Josh ends
up with this big like blood comingoutta the side of his head basically.
But the poor guy's already healingfrom a massive head injury.
I know.
Poor Josh.
Now he's got anotherconcussion to deal with.
Greg's trying to, desperately trying toget back in control of the situation.

(01:04:36):
He's like, get back to your stations,and he's, Ellis is, he tells
Ellis to take Terry downstairs tosee if he can find the cop car.
So I think they're gonna tryand reboot the system again to
see if they can get it working.
Yeah.
Meanwhile, Tiffany is not doing her jobbecause she doesn't answer the radio

(01:04:59):
straight away and when she does she tellsGreg that she needs another 30 minutes.
So his in and out and under 60, isthat like, that's not happening.
They've blown their schedule anda lot, but the longer they stay,
the more risk, the greater therisk is that shit's gonna go wrong.
It's already started to go wrong.

(01:05:19):
Yeah.
Like it's very quickly they'relosing control of everything.
Yeah.
The good thing is that when, um,they rotated everyone out, Maddie
and Linda are now back together
and they're plotting.
They are,
Maddie reckons she couldfake a heart attack.

(01:05:41):
Um, and then they could usea defibrillate defibrillator.
And Linda says on all of them,if it's like there's only.
What three?
No, there must be four of them up therenow, if there are five altogether,
I don't know, we've, we've lostcount of how many people there are.
Um, yeah, there's an amount.
There should be Greg's just gonedownstairs with Terry, so there should

(01:06:05):
be Foster and Ellis and Goon Number One.
We haven't seen Goon Number Onesince all this went down, but he
should be up there as well, so thereshould be three of them up there.
Okay.
Meanwhile, the LAPD have mobilized andthe, um, fire department I guess as well.
Um, they've near, near the dispatch areathey're all kind of gathering, getting

(01:06:28):
ready for them to make their move.
They're closing down somestreets and getting ready
for the SWAT team to move in.
Um, everyone is off their GPS andcalling each other individually
rather than the radios.
They, they have a plan.
Yeah.
They, they've worked, they've sortof worked out what was happening.

(01:06:49):
Like they've, they've workedout that there were sit alongs
scheduled, but um, none of the nameson the list actually checked out.
So there are five bad guys insideand Chim says that we've got
no plan to get our guys out.
And Athena says, "No, we have aplan. We just don't like it." Yeah.
I said, there's a lot going on here.

(01:07:10):
There's um, a guy comes up tothem and he is from the, he's from
Valley Communications, so he usedto work in the other dispatch so
he knows what's happening inside.
And Buck and Chim are justwatching all of this happen.
Just going, oh my God,what is happening here?
Buck says, "I'm sorry Ithought you were crazy."

(01:07:32):
Yeah.
And Chim says, "I'm sorry that Iwasn't." We jumped back over to dispatch.
Um.
Just to check on everyone.
Josh is okay.
Foster is not.
Foster is completely losing his shit.
And that was pretty much it.
That's all we got.
Yeah.
He like knocks everything off the desk.

(01:07:52):
Yeah.
It was just a quick checkupto be like, Hey, Josh is okay.
By the way,
Josh is okay.
Things with the hostages.
Her hostage takers are not,whatever fuse that they had is
getting very, very short right now.
Um, so whatever LAPD and SWAT are gonnado, let's hope they do it soon 'cause
I don't think this guy is gonna beable to keep his cool for much longer.

(01:08:12):
So Dave and Athena are working it all out.
Maynard, who's the, thechief, the police chief.
So she's explaining, she's doing.
Giving us the, the low down and,and Chim and Buck at the same time.
So explaining what's happening, um,
Chim and Buck in this scene, it'sso funny because they're standing
next to each other and Buck isa full head taller than Chim.

(01:08:36):
Yeah.
Like the size difference has neverbeen so obvious until this moment
and I was just like, oh my God.
And even, even Maynard is, is verytall as well, and she's standing
next to Chim and he looks tiny,
just right down down he's beenhanging with Maddie mostly and
they're very close in height.
Yes.
Then just Oliver and his a million limbs.

(01:08:58):
I thought it was more interestingthat for some reason Maynard is
allowing them to participate in this.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Why, why haven't they been sent away?
They're not on duty.
I guess they're dispatchers, so they'rejust like, eh, you can just hang around.
They're not on shift, they're in theircivvies, but she's actively, like,
they, she leaves Athena and Dave todo their plotting with all of the, the

(01:09:19):
9-1-1 like logs and things like that.
And she specifically asks Chim,um, how are the RA units going?
Yeah.
It's like, it's like Chim'ssort of looking after the, the
paramedics who are arriving.
Yeah.
Which is great.
Uh, even though he is not on shift,
I guess they like Athena's like, look,these two aren't gonna like give it up.

(01:09:43):
So we may as well just include them,
give him something to do,keep him outta trouble.
Otherwise Buck's gonna bestorming the dispatch by himself.
Literally
He would do that.
Absolutely.
So we had the 1 22 and the 133 RA units have just shown up.
Um, Buck is more interested in the busfull of people that's just rolled in,

(01:10:06):
um, which Maynard tells Buck and byvirtue of Buck as the audience that
they are the off duty 9-1-1 dispatchersbecause as soon as they take back
the call center, they're gonna needto get 9-1-1 back up and running.
And the hostages are not gonna be any, inany condition to continue to take calls.
So they're gonna swap'em out for these guys.

(01:10:29):
Um, yeah, which is very good
planning.
But Chim's a little bit surprised,like, it's like, "What do you mean
when you take back the call center?
You're not gonna like, negotiate withthe hostage takers?" And Maynard's
like "They don't wanna negotiate.
If they wanted to negotiate,they would've reached out to us.
They would've made ransom demands.
Um, we're just gonna go in andtake it by force before they

(01:10:50):
even know that we're coming.
If we do it right, it'llbe, you know, painless."
Chim's like, "if we don't do itright?" She says, "Well, that's why
I need to get all those RA units."
Mm-hmm.
Uh, so Ellis is in theserver room with Terry.
Terry does not know whyall cops have disappeared.

(01:11:13):
I mean, Ellis, I think you can probablyfigure it out if you thought about it,
but, Foster comes in and he's, he'strying to work out what's going on,
and Ellis tells him that the policecar, that police, that one police car
is not the only one that's gone dark.
And so Foster says "It's time to cut ourlosses." So they tell Terry to stay there.

(01:11:36):
I don't know why they're leaving him onhis own without any supervision, but,
But see, the funny thing is I,I was like, yeah, why Terry?
Why aren't you, why are you staying there?
Because it then cuts from that scene.
We go back up to dispatch floor,but then we cut back to these guys
and it's like a millisecond later.
So even though it's like stay here,when we come back, they're still

(01:11:56):
in exactly the same position andwe continue their conversation.
So it doesn't even havea chance to go anywhere.
But while Foster and Ellisare like considering their
options down in the server room.
Um, Maddie is sowing theseeds of discord in Greg.
She wants, he's freaking outbecause Tiffany said that it

(01:12:19):
was gonna be 30 more minutes.
Now he can't get Tiffany onthe phone, on the radio at all.
Yeah.
And Maddie takes this opportunityto ask if she can check on Josh.
'cause she used to be a nurse and she'sconcerned that he has a concussion.
Um, Greg says that he, she cancheck on him when they are done and
Maddie's like, "When's that gonnabe? You said it was gonna be an

(01:12:40):
hour. It's been longer than an hour."
And Greg points his gun at herand says, "You sit down and
shut up. I will worry about thetime." Maddie grabs hold of that.
It's like, "oh.
So you are worried, youknow, that makes sense.
'cause you know, all yourfriends keep disappearing.
Are they even still in the building?"
Yeah.
Maddie's poking fun here, whichis kind of funny to watch, but.

(01:13:03):
Also Maddie, please don't hurt yourself.
Yeah.
I mean, so fact, Greg doesn't seemto wanna hurt anybody, but he's
getting really stressed and youdon't want him to snap on you.
Yeah.
So Foster and Ellis are still havingtheir argument in the server room.
Oh, not, they're not arguing, they'rejust deciding what they're gonna do next.
I think so, yeah.
Um, Foster's like, "We cango down the back stairs.

(01:13:24):
I have a car waiting around the corner.
We can split up the art and go ourseparate ways." And Ellis is like,
"You've got a car parked down the street?
You you were alwaysgonna double cross Greg?"
And Foster's like, "Wait, you weren't?"
Yeah.
Isn't that how theseheist movies work though?

(01:13:45):
Everyone's double, triplecrossing each other.
Everyone double.
Yeah.
Everyone's in for themselves only.
So we are gonna go, we're gonna go backand forth really quick in this part now.
So we then go back up to dispatch floorwhere Greg is still, like stressed
out about Maddie's starting to dragher across the dis dispatch floor.
As he passes her, Linda suddenly collapsesoff her chair and falls to the floor.

(01:14:11):
And then Greg starts freaking outbecause like, as I said before,
he doesn't know about Jake.
He's assuming thateverything, everyone is okay.
Like he's stopped people from being shot.
He's stopped the cop from being shot.
He did not sign up for people gettingshot and he did not sign up for
one of his hostages to die on him.

(01:14:32):
Uh, we're going back down tothe server room for Ellis.
Yeah.
He's like, "You can't just sell famousworks of art on eBay." And Foster's
like, "You can't sell 'em from prisoneither." So I don't know why we needed
to see them saying that, but okay.
They're still trying to get out.
Um, yeah, back in dispatch, Lindais gasping on the floor and Maddie

(01:14:55):
gives her a, a wink and taps theside of her nose and says, "oh no,
she's having an allergic reaction!"
Oh, no, Linda's dying.
Greg's like, "Allergic to what?"
Yeah, unfortunately, Gregdoesn't just go along with it.
He wants to know what she'sactually having a reaction to.
And Maddie's like "Bees?"

(01:15:19):
but there were like imaginary bees,
thankfully.
And then Sue, like Sue, yeah.
Looks around the room andgoes, "Um, um, um, um, latex!"
Yeah, I'm sure it's the gloves guys.
Um,
you know, you've been manhandling Lindafor over an hour now, but she's only just,

(01:15:39):
it's that, all that exposure to Yeah.
Yeah.
But Maddie's very, you know, she's abetter actor than the rest of them.
She's like, "She's gonna die if shedoesn't get her medication!" And so Greg
is like, "Fine, just go and get it."
At this point, they don't even care.
They're like, do whatever we, yeah.
Don't care.

(01:15:59):
I just don't want a death on my hand.
If I'm going to prison, I wanna goto prison for thievery, not homicide.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So Maddie runs in and like dumpseverything out, um, of the little
bins that they've put all theirbelongings in and finds the EpiPen while
Greg's shouting at her to hurry up.

(01:16:20):
Uh, and she runs back over to Linda.
But instead of putting the EpiPenin Linda, she grabs Greg and
stabs him with it in the wristand it just makes him fall over.
Yeah.
'cause he just got a massive dose ofepinephrine, which he did not need.

(01:16:40):
Um, so Maddie takes the opportunityto take his gun off him and strip
him of all his weapons, at whichpoint, Goon Number Two comes running.
And I'm looking at this guy going, wait,I haven't seen, wait, is that Oliver?
No, that's not Oliver.
He's still down in the security.
Is that, no.

(01:17:01):
How did the thieves get to,we've never seen this guy before.
Really?
So this is where I'm saying, yeah, thisis where I'm saying the math isn't math
because this is not Goon Number One.
'cause Goon number one was a Latino,or at least a person of color.
This guy is like Aryan Nation poster boy.
Which that like, that means thatthere were, I, I don't know.

(01:17:24):
I've, it's late.
My, I don't even know the math anymore,but just, uh, yeah, random goon.
I wasn't, I was not keeping trackof any of this, so I believe you.
Yeah.
You know, you know that...
when you say you've neverseen this guy before,
never seen this guy before.
And he's all like, "Hey, what's going onhere?" Um, at which point Jamal jumps him.

(01:17:46):
Yeah.
And they just grab the, the guns off him.
And so now all of thedispatchers have all the weapons.
So they've like taken over.
They're doing this thing again where, um,they finally get on top of a situation
only for the real rescuers to arrive.

(01:18:07):
So in the server room, um, Ellissays into the radio, um, Rover crew,
change a plan, leave the Van Gogh.
And so the, the thieves stop andlook at each other and they're
like, are you sure about this?
Because it's coming from Ellis too.
Why are they not waitingfor Greg to confirm?

(01:18:30):
Yeah.
Also, why is Greg not hearing thisradio communication and going, "What
the fuck do you mean leave the VanGogh? There was no change of plan."
Well, he's got his hands full oflike, you know, random extra people
in the dispatch center that hedoesn't know why they're there,

(01:18:51):
because we know that they canhear everything because Oliver is
sitting behind the security deskgoing, "Wait, there was a Van Gogh?"
I love that
laugh.
Um, but Van Cleef apparentlydecides that Ellis's word is good
enough and tells Arpels, okay, yep.
We're, we're going radio to Tiffany.
"Tiffany start the van. We're comingout hot." Um, and as they start to

(01:19:14):
leave the museum inside a concerthall, um, we see the security
cameras start to come back online.
He said he yells, "we're coming outnow. Get the van ready." They come out
into the loading dock where the vanshould be, but instead of a van, there
is a bunch of police waiting for them.
So they skid to a stop and get arrested.

(01:19:36):
Hooray!
Um, but he's still,
but as they get, he's still, yeah, he'sgot his, um, he's holding the radio.
Think he still has, he stillhas his finger on the, um,
broadcast button on the radio.
So Oliver and all of a suddenGreg for some reason, um, can
hear that he's getting arrested.
Oliver starts freaking out.
Yeah.

(01:19:57):
Foster freaks and starts running.
And when Ellis asks like,where the fuck are you going?
Foster's just like, I'm goingwhere there are hostages.
Yeah.
I mean, I assume he's, he's hoping to grabsomeone and you know, threatened to kill
them.
He's trying to find, he's tryingto find a human, human shield.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Literally just trying to find ahuman shield, which is lovely.

(01:20:18):
And then things just start going wrong.
Foster braces back up to thedispatch floor to get his hostage,
um, and nearly get shot by Sue.
Oh yeah, she's mean!
She warns him that the nextshot is gonna go into his head.
Oliver tries to run out the frontdoor of the, um, the lobby, um, and
skids to a halt when four laser sightssuddenly appear on his chest from

(01:20:43):
the snipers across wherever they are.
Um
mm-hmm.
So he gives up,
Greg starts going into cardiacarrest because the whatever is
in the EpiPen, what's it called?
Epinephrine?
Epi.
Epinephrine.
Epinephrine, yeah.
Uh, stopped his heart or something.
Uh, he's, you know, in trouble.

(01:21:04):
Yeah.
And Josh is not having that.
Maddie said she must have hit a vein.
'cause I'm assuming the epinephrineis meant to be intramuscular.
Um, where if she has hit a vein and sentit directly to his heart, it's probably
more than like a normal heart can handle.
So, yeah.
But Josh is like, "No, youare, you are not going to die."

(01:21:26):
"You don't get to die."
Yeah.
It looks like Josh is goingto like stop Maddie from...
yeah.
'cause Maddie starts doing CPR.
Maddie starts doing compressions.
Yeah.
Um, so it looks like Josh is tryingto stop Maddie from doing CPR, but
instead he starts doing CPR and heis like, "no, you don't get to die."
Well, he's going to, ifyou do CPR like that, Josh.

(01:21:46):
Oh, it's awful CPR.
Oh, it's so bad.
Like, at some point it lookslike he's just like gently
massaging, um, Greg's chest.
Yeah.
Like I'd say he's doing hisbest, but I don't think he is.
No, I mean, we've had this discussionbefore how, you know, the actors cannot
actually do CPR fully because theyare, you know, going to injure the

(01:22:10):
person that they are doing the CPR on.
Um, but there's, you know, attemptingto look like you're doing CPR and
then it's whatever Brian's doing.
Yeah.
Uh, but just as Josh, Joshstarts doing CPR and then
the SWAT team arrive,
then power cuts out.
Yeah, power cuts out.
Yeah.
Um, Sue realizes what's going down andshe yells at all of the dispatchers

(01:22:34):
who have picked up the guns to put themdown because she doesn't want them to
be shot by SWAT as potential hostages.
Hostage takers.
Yeah.
See, this is what I mean.
Like they've just taken control of thesituation and then the SWAT team come in
and they're like, "oh, drop your guns!"
I think they made it worse becauseSue had foster under control, but

(01:22:56):
as soon as Foster sees SWAT come in,he's like, "I'm not going back. I'm
not going back. I cannot go back,"and then commits suicide by cop.
Yeah.
He grabs a gun and just charges at them.
Yeah.
He doesn't even attempt, he doesn'teven attempt to shoot at them.
It's just he knows that if he runs at themholding a weapon, they will just fire.

(01:23:16):
Yeah.
So they kill Foster andan RA that comes in.
Yeah.
Bye.
Um, they're all, it is sort of when theSWAT team comes in, there's like this,
the tense music kind of stops and there'sthis like really calm, kind of quiet music
over the top and it all goes slow motion.

(01:23:39):
And all of the dispatchers arelooking like, so relieved, but
also like extremely traumatized.
Mm. Uh, which is understandable.
Um, so they, arrest all of the, thebad guys and they take the dispatchers
outside and then we see the replacementdispatchers filing in and picking up

(01:24:02):
the earpieces and going back to work.
So they're filing in andstarting to go back to work.
And Greg is still being worked on
Yeah.
By the, by the paramedics.
Yeah, paramedics came in, thankfullywithin like a second of a paramedic
doing actual chest compressions,they managed to get a pulse back.
Yeah,

(01:24:22):
yeah, yeah.
So he's gonna make it.
So he's gonna be fine.
But yeah, you can see the, thedispatchers kinda look around going,
what the fuck happened in here?
I'm sure they had beenbriefed on what's happening.
Why is there blood on the floor
Outside Maddie is looking, youknow, very traumatized and, but

(01:24:45):
she see, but Chim sees her andruns over and they have a big hug.
Oh yeah.
They have this moment where they'reboth searching for each other
and I'm just like, oh my God.
I wanna cry because I love them so much.
Yeah.
While they're having their reunionbucks on the other side of the street.

(01:25:06):
And Sue, who has somehow managed tomake her way out of the building,
been cleared by LAPD and walked andwalked around to the other side of
the street, um, to talk to Buck.
And she asks him, or she saysto him that she's surprised that
he's not over there with Maddie.
Um, yes, Sue is actually lookingperfectly fine after all this,

(01:25:30):
all that she's just been through.
She's quite chipper.
She's good.
She's a tough cookie,
but yeah, she's lookingincredibly refreshed.
Yeah.
She's calm and collected.
Yeah, she's good.
She's fine.
Maddie looks like she's beenput through the ringer twice.
Yeah.
And she's surprised that Buck'snot over there with Maddie.

(01:25:52):
And Buck says, "She alreadyhas everything she needs."
Yeah.
Aw,
She has Chim.
She's fine.
So now we come to the partwhere, where everyone has to
explain everything to Buck.
As we had with the last heist,
but it's not even everyone has toexplain everything to Buck, it's like

(01:26:13):
everybody knows what's going on andthey're just telling the story to each
other over and over and over again.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Everyone is a part of this explanation.
How the fuck does Harryknow what's going on?
I love that.
Like, they were like, oh shit, we hawe need to pay Peter for this episode.
But Bobby hasn't been in it, sohe, they just sort of shoehorn

(01:26:34):
him in at the end as well.
Yeah.
I'm surprised they didn't bring like Henand and Eddie in just to add everyone in.
They, they don't have to pay him.
He is not a producer.
It's fine.
Oh,
but wouldn't that have made sense ifrather than having Maddie and Chim and
Buck and Josh sit around rehash thiswhole situation amongst themselves.

(01:26:56):
If they're back at the 118 and likeEddie and Hen are sitting there with
like their mouths dropped open, like,what the fuck happened to you, Chim?
Yeah.
That day off.
He's right.
That would make more sense forhim to be explaining it to them.
That would be way more, thatwould make way more sense.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But that's what we get to be fair,Ryan's gonna be very busy next episode,

(01:27:20):
so he probably deserved a day off.
Oh, you know what?
They were probably filming next episodewhile they were also filming this.
Yeah, that would probably make sense.
He's got the B unit,the A unit's doing this.
Yeah.
Or the B unit had this andthe A unit was out with Ryan.
Well, at least to start with, Bobbydoesn't seem to know what exactly happened

(01:27:42):
because he asks Athena, so they're sittingaround the table like the Bathena family.
Um.
"How did you know themuseum was their target?"
And Athena is quite happy to spill thistea and she says "The car accident."
So she explains that like, I don'tknow if we need to go through all of

(01:28:06):
this because there's quite a lot ofdialogue and we, we already know it all.
But anyway, she explains that they hadn'twanted her there because it had to be
something that was near downtown area.
And she, she found out that thealarm had gone off at the, um,
museum from the dispatch logsand they almost got away with it.
But they have a little, a little bitof back and forth, like a quick fire

(01:28:30):
series of scenes where, um, each ofthe guys in the, in the gang says that
they want a lawyer except for Greg.
Except for, and they, I love thatthey include Foster in this because
it's like Ellis is like, um, youknow, "I would like to invoke my sixth
amendment right to council. Like, justgimme a lawyer." Oliver's like, yeah.

(01:28:52):
Not talking with a lawyer.
Van Cleef lawyer, Arpelslawyer, goon lawyer, foster
body bag, doesn't need a lawyer.
And then Greg actually says, "I don'tneed a lawyer." And he's in hospital bed.
Oh no.
He's like, I'm folding.
I'm good.
I am cutting a deal.
I'm gonna sell everybody out.
Yeah.

(01:29:12):
I wonder if that's why Greg didn'twant the, um, like didn't wanna
kill anyone this whole time.
'cause he is like, yeah, if I get caught,I'm just gonna send them down the river.
Oh yeah.
100%
That was always his plan.
Yeah, he was, he was gonna cut a deal.
He was gonna get like minor offenses,but he would not be able to cut the
deal if he had a homicide on his hands.

(01:29:32):
Yeah, right.
Um, but he immediatelystarts singing like a canary.
It's like, it wasn't, um, the detectiveswho were interviewing him at bedside, like
start telling us about the security guard.
And Greg's like, "Oh, that wasTiffany's idea." And the two detectives
look at each other and like, what?
Greg's like, you didn't find?
Yeah.
Who the fuck is Tiffany?

(01:29:52):
Greg's like, "You didn't findTiffany?" And they're like,
"who the fuck is Tiffany?"
And then we get Tiffany, who isstill in her little white panel
van driving down the street.
Um, but we get an updatedintroduction to her.
She is not the driver anymore.
She is the brains of the operation.

(01:30:15):
And I love that her needle dropis The Zombies, "She's Not There"
because it's the whole song.
She wasn't there.
Yeah.
It's the whole song is about,you know, when you're trying to
find someone, they're not there.
Which was exactly what was goingon with Tiffany in this heist.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So now we go to Maddie telling what...it's basically Maddie, uh, Chim and

(01:30:37):
Josh telling what happened to Buck.
Because I don't know how Chim knowsall about what happened, but he does.
No, he, yeah.
So Tiff Tiffany was the mastermind.
She hired Greg.
Greg hired everybody else.
Um, but Greg didn't knowthat Tiffany was the boss.
He just thought that she was the driver.

(01:31:00):
Yeah.
So yeah, Tiffany useda voice like disguiser.
So they had no idea.
And then when Greg was puttinghis team together, um, their last
driver, uh, died in their last heist.
So she came highly recommendedas a replacement driver.
Except she recommended herself.
Yeah.

(01:31:21):
Yeah.
Oh, so they targeted, um, Joshto get inside the security
sent, like in inside security.
And that's what Buck, that'swhat Buck thinks, at least.
Yeah.
But Josh says, no, not exactly.
Tiffany already had someoneinside, Jake, the security guard.
Uh, he was the inside man.

(01:31:41):
He was perfect.
Um, but apparently Jake, um, andTiffany also were getting it on.
Yeah, Jake was too perfect.
And he was too perfect.
Yeah.
'cause I think Tiffany hooked up withJake the same way that Greg hooked up
with Josh, like they started online datingexcept Tiffany fell in love with Jake.

(01:32:04):
Mm-hmm.
I do love that what sold Tiffany onJake was when he said, when she showed
up for their first meeting face toface, and she was late of course.
'cause apparently she's always lateand Jake's just like, "you know, I
think people get a little too hungup on watching the clock and being on
time. You know?" You can literally seeTiffany's panties drop at that point.

(01:32:31):
Which then completely ruined herplan because she was just going to
use Jake and let him take the fall.
But now he was her boo, so she wasn'tgoing to, you know, do him wrong.
So they needed did another fall guy.
So that's where Josh came in.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So they st they couldn't steal his badge.
They just borrowed it, copiedit, and then returned it.

(01:32:53):
So he got his wallet backwith all his cards inside it.
Um, so they didn't suspect anything.
They show extra footage from when Joshwas getting the crap beaten out of him.
So he's riding on the floor in pain and,um, Greg has got like a card reader and
he's going through all the cards in Josh'swallet and scanning them into this card

(01:33:15):
reader before putting them back in hiswallet and tossing it on the ground.
So then we get the explanationof what happened with Jake.
So Jake,
did not die.
Uh, he was, he, he didn't die.
He was taking his, um, uniform offto give it to Oliver, and then he
pulls his gun out and shoots the floorand scaring the shit out of Oliver.

(01:33:35):
Um, and he's like, "what the hell?"And Jake's like, "oh, I just, I
need, I'm just trying to sell it."
So he made his escape at that point.
I'm guessing he didn't hang around.
Um, and
yeah, Josh says when the other guyswere in position inside, um, Jake was
free to sneak out 'cause no one wouldnotice that he was not there anymore.

(01:33:56):
And he went to the not WaltDisney Center concert hall and
uh, hooked up with Tiffany.
Like literally.
'cause that point where Tiffany wastelling Greg like, I need 30 more minutes.
That's 'cause they werehaving sex in the van.
Yeah.
Not because Van Cleef andArpels were having any trouble.
That was the pointwhere they, disappeared.
They took off with the paintingsand everyone else was left.

(01:34:17):
So they're about to head off on a train,they're going to take off with all of the,
the paintings on a train, like as you do.
I mean, I guess it's the callbackto the, um, actual original movie.
Right.
Which was involving a train.
I think it's also because if they wenton an airplane, they would have to check
those large crates and they wouldn'tbe able, they would have, they scanned,

(01:34:41):
they would get to go through security.
They would be out of their line of sight.
Whereas if they're going on a train,they would know where they were
and no one's going to touch themuntil they load them off again.
Yeah.
But before they can pull itoff, um, Athena apparates,
she really does
as she does.

(01:35:01):
It's just what she does.
Yeah.
You know how Athena be,
she's done it on a train before.
Yeah.
But "Your, your trip's been delayedby about five to 15 years." Yeah.
And um, they all get arrested.
Yes, because apparently while Tiffanywas smart enough to re, to remove
all of the art from the frames,because the frames are the ones

(01:35:23):
that have the GPS trackers in them.
Um, Jake didn't turn off the GPSin his phone, so they tracked his
phone because he kept it on him.
But how did they know, I guess, um,Greg must have sold him out as well.
Oh yeah.
I'm gonna say he was likesinging like a canary.
Yeah.
It probably also helped that when theywent and like cleared dispatch center,

(01:35:46):
they would've said, like, Terry would'vesaid to them like, "they shot Jake!"
And they go down to the servant room.
They're like, oh dude,there's nobody in there.
Yeah.
Where the fuck, Jake?
He's dead.
Yeah, there's like a bullet,there's a bullet hole in the
floor, but there's nobody there.
And then, so her plan was always todouble cross the rest of the team
because Yeah, because it turns out her,the driver who died in the last one

(01:36:12):
was her dad, and they just left him.
Yeah.
And then after all that Harry pipes upwith, "Wow, I guess there really is no
honor among thieves." And the rest ofthem, sort of, everyone's just like, what?
Okay.
And have a laugh.
I mean, he's right.
What a weird thing for him to say.

(01:36:34):
Oh, right.
So the explanation's done.
Now we go to Maddie taking herdrawer that Chim has offered her,
oh no, she's not taking a drawer.
She's taking his entire closet.
Like she is literally removinghis clothes from his closet.

(01:36:55):
So she's not moving in, right.
She's just bringingsome of her things over,
some of her things over
"Some of my things," she says.
So he, he now brings up this case again,everyone wants to make a deal except for
Jake who wants to fight it out in court
because he was crazy in love.
So he wasn't thinking clearly.

(01:37:16):
Yeah.
And Maddie knows what that's like.
Aw,
Aw,
so cute.
She tells Chim that, "I'm reallyglad you got my message." And his
response is, "I love you too."
Aw.
And then they take a break from clearingout the closet and get it on instead,
Maddie removes even more Chim's clothes.

(01:37:38):
Not just, not just the ones in the closet.
The ones on his body.
Yes.
Oh dear.
Poor Chim has nowhere to put them.
So did you enjoy this heist betterthan the um, "Ocean's 9-1-1" episode?
See,
because you hadreservations about that one.
No, but "Ocean's 9-1-1"was not a heist movie.

(01:38:00):
"Ocean's 9-1-1" pretended to be aheist movie, and it started with
a heist, but it was actually amystery and it was a bad mystery.
Whereas this one was an actualheist, we got to watch the
crew try to pull off the heist.
Well, actually we did see them pulloff the heist, so yes, I enjoyed this

(01:38:21):
one much, much more than I did....
Yeah, I love this episode.
Did the mystery one Yeah.
Of "Oceans 9-1-1".
I forgot how much I liked it too.
And then, yeah, when I waswatching it, I'm like, yeah,
this is actually like real cool.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This is what I wanted.
Well, actually, what I wanted from "Oceans9-1-1" was the 118 to be pulling off
the heist, but like, yeah, this is fine.

(01:38:42):
I'll accept this as well.
Well, it had, it had everything, ithad like the tension, like everyone was
not quite sure what was gonna happennext because the guys were losing
control and we, you know, we didn'tknow what they were gonna do next.
Mm-hmm.
Um, it had good pace all the waythrough and resolved in a good way.
It didn't have any Henor um, Eddie at all.

(01:39:05):
It did not, I dunno.
Which is a downside.
Aisha, I don't know what Aisha wasdoing this week, but that's fine.
She might've been takinga well deserved break.
We said Ryan was probablyoff shooting something.
People are allowed to take time off.
So speaking of, um, Eddie, what arewe, what are we doing next week?
We are beginning
again?

(01:39:25):
We haven't had Eddie begins yet.
Then it's next week is "Eddie Begins".
Um, the official promo that was sentout says that Eddie's journey to
rescue a boy from a well turns intoa mission to save him himself from
his past, which sounds very dramatic.

(01:39:46):
Yes.
Um, triggers for anybody who hasn'tseen Eddie begins before and wants to
watch it for the first time, but wantsto know what they're gonna be in for.
Includes, uh, discussions of cancer,uh, claustrophobia, specifically
being buried alive, child at threat.
Drowning threat of drowning,uh, gun violence, a helicopter

(01:40:10):
crash, depiction of war and PTSD.
Wow.
Fun times.
Yeah, it sounds like a complicated one.
There's a lot in this episode.
I can't wait for Ellen to see it.
It's so good.
Okay.
It, you guys are hyping thisone up a lot like and have been

(01:40:30):
That's really for some time.
Yeah.
So I'm looking forward to it.
But have we ever hyped up anepisode and you've then watched
the episode and gone, why wereyou making a big deal out of that?
No, I do believe you.
I do believe you.
You haven't let me down yet.
Yeah.
Yet
Alice, we need to just find arandom 9-1-1 episode and just

(01:40:51):
start hyping the shit out of it.
Just to throw off the track.
No.
What we need to do is just talkabout how shit, like some of
the really good episodes are.
And then I'd be watch them going,whatcha talking about This is great.
Like, like "Jinx" in seasonfour is so shit like.
It's actually the worstepisode ever, ever.
Oh.
So we're just, we are justgonna, we have to watch it again.
We're just gonna gaslight Ellen.
Excellent.

(01:41:11):
I'm always up for agood set of gaslighting.
Yeah.
"Jinx".
Oh, thanks guys.
Fuck.
We have to watch "Jinx" again.
Shit.
For fuck's sake.
Okay, I'm gonna remember that one now.
No, you won't.
It's fine.
It's not like you're onethat edits these episodes.
It's a long way away.
Potentially, actually,speaking of a long way away.
Um, not a long way away.

(01:41:33):
"Eddie Begins" is episode 15, which meanswe only have a few left in this season.
Yeah, we are nearly done.
