Best episode of Lethal Weapon season 3? Maybe. Plus, get caught up with the resident incel of the left and his new living arrangement. And don't forget to order the new smokable preworkout: Cancelled by Clayne Cast.

## Episode Summary

The end of BREW? Worms in your meal perp? Russian assassins? This episode has it all, plus a discussion on the ethics of pimpin'.

Much like Murtaugh in this episode, Nate's stuck at home with an injury. Keep praying for Nay Nay and let's hope he's not acting as creepy as Roger in this episode. After recording over 50 episodes, he's finally learned how to use his Microphone! Sounds great Nate! Another Parallel to this weeks Lethal episode is Drew staying in a Motel like Cole, the only difference is the addition of an adult boy and gallons of yogurt. Tom continues to be a menace. Drew is in a bad mood because Nate was very rude to him right off the bat before recording the episode (see the ***EXCLUSIVE** BEHIND THE SCENES DRAMA* in the Watch-a-long on Patreon)!

Nate and Tom adore and love their wives, Drew hates his (training) wife.

### Father-Son-Updates

Brie Said „Me or the PS5” to Drew and well, let’s just say Drew and his son are currently playing a lot of video games. They've moved into a tiny motel room, where the father-son-duo sleep on the floor in makeshift beds of towels stolen from the housekeeping cabinet. Nate announces all this by reading an incredibly well written gossip article, and it looks like we've seen the last of Captain Marvel.

Tom's son will be studied by scientists.

The dads all have a hearty laugh at the thought of Drew setting the house on fire and abandoning his boy, leaving him to die in the fire because he's too busy watching Pepper Ann to notice anything wrong.

**Advice for saving leftist boys:** Tom says Retain. However, If you're going to watch porno & break retention anyways; just cum. If you’re gonna do it just do it. You don’t have to watch the whole movie.

### Episode Recap

In the tropical paradise of Malibu, the detectives commit multiple felonies while endangering everyone in the vicinity. Murtaugh hurts his back and is off that perc spying on other hotel guests, and Cole has some will they-won’t they moments with Erica, the ADA from the last few episodes. All this chaos is caused under the mantle of protecting a senator (who happens to be Erica’s mom!) from assassins sent by the Russian sate-owned oil company. We get a whole lot of flashbacks, RJ wants to start a weed store and eventually Cole saves the day and finally gets together with Erica.

As has become custom this season, the hosts barely talk about the LW episode. Although they don't give a rating, Nate says it's the second best episode ever. Must be that Katie Varney angle! She also wrote the best episode of the show, the Christmas episode in season 2.

The flashback gets interrupted by Cole, who is sitting next to Roger in this booth. They’re being recorded from multiple angles. He says it all start with a lean-in. We get a flashback to Cole talking about his dead mother to Erica, the ADA from the last few episodes. Her mom, a Senator, will be in town this week to talk at an environmental summit and wants to stop by the station to get a photo-op with some cops. Cole insists on meeting her because he says mothers love him. Erica says *everybody* seems to love him, and he suddenly starts to lean in as if to kiss her – but she stops his advances and suddenly, we’re back in the interrogation booth.
Surely, this is all very important.

We get a brief crime scene somewhere in the desert, where the detectives find a dead guy at the wheel of a crashed car with his pants down and coke on the dashboard. Only clue is a stiletto in the passenger seat, but Scorsese laments their helplessness without Murtaugh. Cole swears however that they will not bother Roger on his vacation.

Speak of the devil, Roger throws out his back at the pool being a jackass. Trish forces him to stay in his room, where he reads Tom Clancy books. He’s got a fancy new camera, and uses it to be a huge creep, spying on the other hotel guests out of his window.

Meanwhile, dozens of Callgirls, potential witnesses to the recent murder, have gathered in the LAPD station. Erica shows up and asks Bailey for some tea because her mother (the senator) actually showed up! When Bailey tells her she can find some in Avery’s desk, Erica says whatever they’re paying Sonya, it’s not enough. THANK YOU ERICA!

Anyway, Bailey tells Cole the “cocaine” they found on the dashboard was actually ricin. Cole walks into a room he thinks one of the Callgirls is in, but as misfortune would have it he walks into the room where the Senator is in! He calls her a prostitute and she gets all mad and leaves.

Murtaugh is off that Perc in his hotel room, still taking creepshots of the other guests. He spies on a family and sees two bellhops wheel in the room service, then says *“..and what did we order for lunch today”* in a very silly accent. But suddenly the bellhops whip out guns and yank shut the blinds. Murtaugh frantically takes pictures of it all and then calls Bailey and tells her to **SEND EVERYONE!!**

Bailey actually shows up and thinks he’s just confused. GOAT. He sent her the photos but they’re all blurry. She tells them the capitol police are here and will find anything if there’s something going on. They’re here because of senator Malick's aka Erica's Moms speech at the climate summit. Bailey and Trish leave him but suddenly he sees the dad from the family staring back at him from the room, before closing the blinds.

Murtaugh calls Cole and wants him to investigate, but Cole burnt a burrito and set of a fire alarm. This gives Murtaugh an idea, and he somehow stumbles outside and pulls the fire alarm near the family’s hotel room. While everyone escapes, he slips into their hotel room and rummages around. But unfortunately he drops his pills and when he groaningly gets on the floor to pick them up, he spots a bullet casing under the bed!

But before he can grab it, the actual Capitol Police show up and arrest him – and that’s how he wound up in the interrogation room.

Cole then tells his side of the story. One of the Callgirls identified their victim as a defense contractor called Dick Murphy. Cole finds out someone was actually using the dead guy’s badge this morning, and by chance runs into his imposter at the factory! A chase ensues but eventually, the bad guy pulls out an Uzi to shoot at Cole, then escapes on a motorcycle.

Cole "borrows" a prototype super-armored Hummer with a gun on top, and races after him. While all this is going on, the senator is being driven to the summit, with the guy interrogating our heroes in the present. We find out he's called Barret. Suddenly the two parties cross paths, and Cole flips over the Hummer, nearly missing the Senator’s car. So that’s how he got brought in, and how both of them ended up in front of Barret.
So Barret just lets them both off the hook!

Trish, Riana and RJ are in the very cool resort restaurant, when suddenly they start to argue about Rianas drinking, and Trish blames herself. A waitress brings their cocktails, but when Trish smells Rum in hers, she wants to send it back. However she suddenly changes her mind and decides to “have some fun” and takes a sip. She drinks a bunch of wine in the previous episodes so not sure why this is such a big deal.

In the Senators suite, Cole has a Chat with Senator Malik – who pulled his classified service record. She goes over all the places in the world he’s been, but even though it’s classified she says she knows how hard it is, and the baggage blah blah blah. She then asks him what *he* would do if someone like him walked into *his* daughters life. Deep stuff.

Cole rushes back to the station where Erica was waiting for him, and she confesses she’s been picking her cases to spend time with him. They almost kiss when she leans in but he pulls back oh wow how funny.

Murtaugh observes the kid from the kidnapped family spell *HELP* on the window with his breath and run away, when suddenly the dad closes the blinds again. Trish wakes up totally hungover and scolds Roger for using his camera to take pictures of boys again. She has to puke and runs to the bathroom, and Roger uses this chance to take his gun out and save that boy.

Scorsese gives Cole a presentation on the guy who Cole chased, because he left a *single* fingerprint at that huge factory, and says he’s a former Russian FSB agent called Adrian Sokolov who is in the country on a work visa from the Russian state-owned oil company. Bailey comes in and tells them Dick, the murder victim, was working on a secret 3D printed plastic gun. Cole deduces they’re going to use it to assassinate Senator Malick at the summit today, so he speeds over there.

He tells Roger that he was indeed right and there was some international assassination plot going on in the hotel and he’s uncovered it. They find out the dad in the room is called Stephenson. He was invited because he’s some big donor to the senator, but yesterday a man and a woman broke into their room and have been holding his wife hostage. The woman is going to pretend to be his wife to get into the summit, where she’ll use the plastic gun to kill the Senator!

They split up and Murtaugh goes to find the kidnapped wife but gets surprised by Sokolov, and they start to fight. Roger throws a bowl of mixed nuts at the guy and at some point Sokolov has him in a bind, lifts him, and like a miracle Murtaughs back cracks back into place. Relieved, Roger knocks out his adversary and thanks him. All the while this poor bound and gagged has to suffer his bad jokes.

Cole wants to warn the senator, but the Capitol Police won’t let him in. He sees her coming down the hall and runs over, but Barret and some other cops are there and try to stop him from preventing the senator giving her speech. He apologizes to the cops and then brazenly knocks them all out and kidnaps the senator. Erica follows as he pulls them into an elevator.

While they’re going up, Cole confesses a bunch of things to Erica because it may be his last chance. The doors open and a capitol policeman has a gun pointed at them, but suddenly he gets shot but the female Russian assassin with the plastic gun. Cole grabs it and tells the women to run, and then they fight for a few minutes until Cole wrestles the gun towards the assassin and shoots her in the stomach.

Senator Malick leaves, and Erica is mad zzzz.

We get back to the Murtaugh mansion, where the family has been kicked out of the Hotel a day early. Trish is still hungover but is glad to have her hopeless kids.
But after flying home from Malibu, they're not done yet! Cole invited them to crash at his pool, and they all go over to this Motel next to the interstate for a swim. Lovely. Erica calls Cole and when he steps inside his room for privacy, suddenly she's there. They kiss but are interrupted briefly by Rogers sreams of agony. RJ approached Roger about his weed store Idea and when Roger heard it he tried to assault RJ but threw out his back again. The end.

## The Leftist Angle

This episode discusses the age old question "*Is Pimpin' out a 40 year old boy leftist?*".

Nate suggests maybe his journalist friend Alex Press can investigate it.

While the jury's still out as to whether pimping is leftist, it is evident that limping is not. Sorry Nate.

Also, it appears from this week's episode of Lethal that Cole is leftist (because he has no problem with sex work).

## CCEUpdates/AMPDates

CCE presents a new smokable preworkout!

***Cancelled*** by Clayne Cast

Forget dry scooping, this is the new exciting way to start your day. This product needs to be smoked or snorted, it cannot be mixed with water or else it turns into a lump of cement. However, you are able to mix it with beer or other carbonated drinks, which it makes taste great and really gets you in the mindset to post something that will get you *CANCELLED*!

## Get to know your host(s)

Nate is known as the guy who takes the piss. He's a dick, it's his thing!

## Trivia

**Mustard** is a condiment made from the seeds of a mustard **plant** (white/yellow mustard, *Sinapis alba*; brown mustard, *Brassica juncea*; or black mustard, *Brassica nigra*). So it is a vegetable albeit a processed one.

Nate confirms Nants are real but denies playing an active part in their creation. Spermjacking is no joke. Some Nants remain alive, even though their numbers have been greatly reduced thanks to the recent California floods.

This episode once again lauds Keith for his service, and the hosts narrow down the timeframe for a potential show to watch after Lethal Weapon to about 2017-2018, when he was doing his best writing. Unfortunately they also are hit with the realization of how hard it is to find things on his site, as it lacks a search function. The the Magnum PI reboot is brought up as a candidate, but ass far as we can tell Keith only reviewed the first episode of it, and maybe did some reviews of an entire season rather than the individual episodes.

## Clayne Fore-Casting

There will be a big huge **ClayneCast Tour**, since we all have been asking for it!? Coming soon.

Drew (@CanadasHost) is taking your requests for tour locations. Nate's brother Ben (@BetrayedMan1990) is the new CCE Promo manager and head of marketing, reach out to him for advertising and sponsorships and keep sending follow requests!
