Episode 4: Audio Sabotage

Tom, Drew and Nate don't argue and discuss episode 4 of Lethal Weapon the TV Series. Drew gets in big trouble again and Nate's audio messed up his audio again somehow for half the episode.

## Episode Summary

Nate struggles with yet another new audio issue. Tom uses his experience with YouTube searches to give a learned perspective on certain aspects of the episode. Drew wants to film Funerals.

Riggs and Murtaugh chase after a group of Burglars that has recently been hitting houses in the area, and are able to capture one of them, a bodybuilder known by his YouTube handle the "Big Black Hulk".

Cruz joins up with the department full time for some reason, which Detective Bailey isn't so sure about.

Roger Jr. (Murtaugh's son) keeps getting taken for rides but then booted out in bad neighborhoods, and because of that, eventually, Riggs and Murtaugh find out about his Valet friend, Marcus, who turns out to be the missing link to the burglaries.

The Valets would pass the addresses of rich guests on to the Burglars, who would then rob the Locations when no-one was home. They find out through Cruz's C.I. that all the Valets all work for one Man: Marshawn Wiley, the Big Black Hulk's old Basketball Coach.

Just as another robbery is about to needlessly turn into a double homicide/execution, Riggs and Murtaugh crash through the window and shoot or incapacitate many of the bad guys. After they fight their way into the street, Marcus gets a little shot by Coach Wiley, but Clayne is able to tackle the Coach shortly after and arrest him.

The episode ends with Roger and Martin being cleared by Dr. Cahill for future work, which they celebrate by going back to the barber shop from the opening and opining on the "situation" in Riggs' face.

## The Leftist Angle

There goes the Neighborhood? Not in my back yard!
Just because someone drives a Tesla doesn't mean they're rich and deserve to be robbed and murdered.

## Clayne-foreCasting

Drew reveals some sneak-peek exclusive information about a Lethal Weapon-meets-MCU crossover. Nate is supportive of Drew's episode, unlike Tom. Tom mentioned there would be a future episode devoted to the Evil Boy. Nate hints at an upcoming ClayneCast Livestream in which the hosts re-watch these episodes (potentially at twitch.com/ClayneCast or YouTube). Whatever it takes.
