Season 3 Episode 12: Nate and Drew v Tom

Its a low energy episode of Clayne Cast as watching every episode of Lethal Weapon has destroyed our minds. Worst episode of Lethal Weapon. Plus, Nate is going to space (Naliens?) and Nate and Drew have a new truce.

## Episode Summary

Naliens are Real?! Buckingheads versus Tom! The Wokies are reeeing!!

Tom's wrist hurts from crankin' off all day to AI deepfake porn of Nate and an Ant. This porno was very avant-garde however, as it not only showed graphic detail of the flipping and fucking, but also the aftermath; the Ant giving birth to Nants and raising them. Nate and Drew form yet another alliance and do battle with Tom. Nate ruined Levon's party by lecturing everyone on the Nants.

### Episode Recap

Another episode where Murtaugh is old and reluctant to accept it. Cole tries to juggle his love affair with Erica and be a good dad. Some bare knuckle boxing guys punch above their weight when one of them winds up dead. A lot of bad gaffs and a boring case of the week, except for the Swede and some ketamine. At least it's not another international CIA plot, just some yuppie drug dealers escalating their criminal behavior. Trish is running for some kind of public office, which Murtaugh approves of because he thinks it will benefit him. A boring filler episode that ends with Cole and Erica squirting ketchup and mustard on each other.

Episode Rating

 Nate

Apparently Trish wants Roger and her to slow down even though last episodes, she’s been trying to build up her own private law practice. What does anything even mean.

Cole wakes up next to Erica, they hooked up (last episode) but unfortunately his young daughter knocks and sees her, not amused.

Then finally we cut to some fight club-esque scene. A “swede” takes some money and guys are bare knuckle brawlin’.

Next scene, SWS and Rog show up at a gym, where Scorsese shows them one of the fighters, dead on the gym floor. The gym owner, Frank Hardy (Jason Gedrick), says the dead guy Mark was working with some rich kid investor, but he thinks its not a message, the people who he hung around with just wanted to get him home because they felt guilty.

Trish and avery at a lunch meeting. A rich lawyer lady comes and proposes to Trish to run for the ADA position but she is reluctant to agree.

In the morgue Scorsese shows Murtaugh the corpse and knows all about Ketamine but then THE GUTE shows up ! She heard about rogers signature move “the roger” and doubts he can actually pull it off these days. She pulled the file on Parker Adams (Rob Raco), the rich kid investor. Cole and Murtaugh check out his mansion, where a Bodyguard lets them in but suddenly Cole gets a call from the principle of Mayas school because she got into a fight during debate practice. Murtaugh investigates Adams and we see a nice Mustard AK-47 Lamp, very classy.

Suddenly Cole sees a vase fall over and drugs inside spill out, so of course a fight breaks out
Roger does “the Roger” but miscalculates the route and gets his foot stuck in the drywall.

Cole bloody and brusied arrives in school where the principle scolds him because his daughter punched some guy.

In the interrogation booth, the rich guy is snooty to Murtaugh so he confronts him with his file. Unfortunately he has trouble reading the fine print, and groans, because he’s so old. Eventually the rich shit reveals the victims trainer was having an affair with his wife.
Cole talking to his daughter reveals Erica isn’t really his plumber but she realizes its a lie and starts shit talking her dad, she doesn’t approve of the relationship.
Poor duck.

Cole and Rog go to scope out some Frank but suddenly some bad guys abduct him. They fight and Roger almost runs over Cole but then they save the trainer and the Gute interviews him. His bro got caught up with these rich guys and he keeps shifting the blame to them. Erica flirting with Cole more in the elevator Nate has a crush on her gooning in his cave. ARROW STOP HIM!
In the watchalong, Duck is going wild by now because this episode is so bad.

Erica just wants to Bang and dumps Cole, even though last episode she said the exact opposite (good call Nate).

Gute on the shooting Range with Murtaugh.
Sven Olsen is the Swede.
Lemme know when the bolo hits.

He comes home and threatens Trish with the lewd “roger” move and shows her his shooting range target. The Lido deck is where he wants to do things to her. Trish tells Roger about her career as the attorney to the district attorney job and he is not supportive as per usual.

In the gym, Frank punches a punching bag when it suddenly breaks, where he finds MONEY spilling out - the money Mark was killed over
He bags it, but suddenly Maria shows up. She got beat up by THE SWEDE ! Frank says he’s gonna take care of it for good and loads a pistol.

Erica consoles in Maya in the breakroom, zzzz

Murtaugh called in sick, so Avery visits him at the mansion and confronts him about his bitching to Trish. Roger says he’s loosing his grip but Avery shows him his old targets and has actually gotten better over the years.
Cole tries to be a good dad while telling his daughter a suspension from school isn’t vacation.

Maria shows up and tells Cole Frank is gonna shoot the swede and or the rich guys. Frank goes to the fight club and wants to give the Swede the money but he pulls out the gun. Of course he’s overwhelmed but instead of killing him on the spot, the swede says they will fight it out!

The Gute meanwhile has found the Swede’s address in Chinatown and heads over there with Murtaugh
Cole is there too and knocks out the bouncer and goes in. In the ring, two guys are beating themselves bloody while rich guys cheer.

In the back room, the henchmen try to squirt Ketamine into Frank but suddenly, Cole is there and also gets some, instantly being turned leftist.
Somehow he ends up fighting the Swede, in a ketamine haze while the rich people cheer on. Cole gets vision to Maya and smashes the Swede for his freedom. But not without loosing a tooth. When the Swede Pulls a knife, Roger performs a modified version of “the Roger” in slowmo  and saves the day.

He recounts the episode in gory detail and Scorsese asks how high he was. Murtaugh thinks he’s so cool.
Cole Drops off Maya at school and hugs. But that’s embarrassing so she runs inside.

Rog walks in on Trish and her now campaign manager woman and seemingly approves of the whole ordeal. He thinks this may somehow lead to a President Murtaugh!

Erica and Cole meet on his balcony and squirt ketchup and mustard on each other and that’s the end! Sorry they made you edit this Katie Varney  :/
