Archer (2009–…): Season 13, Episode 8 - Episode #13.8 - full transcript
- This is it.
The slightest misstep
means disaster.
[tense musical sting]
[exhales]
ah, my best work yet.
- [sighs]
sadly, I think you're right.
- Another one
for the maybe pile.
Mmm.
- [laughing maniacally]
- cheryl, you know I love you,
but if you don't start helping,
I'm gonna snap your vertebrae
like pistachios.
- Aw, that does sound like love!
- Come on! We need 100 of those
by the end of the day.
- Well, since we're not
gonna make it anyway,
it won't matter if you eat one.
- You know I'm trying
to keep that under control!
[yelping weakly]
- why do you think I'm doing it?
- [screams]
- yaa... ah-ha-ow...
- [laughs]
I saw you lick crumbs
off your face... I win.
- You okay?
- Why was it so hot?
- Were you...
Wearing oven mitts?
- What are those?
Slater: Damn it!
What are you idiots doing?
- You tell us, ass-face.
You sawe're on a secret
mission to destroy fabian,
and we've been undercover
for three weeks in this bakery.
- It's a patisserie,
and it's not like I love
having you
mess up my profitable
side business.
- That you use
as a personal slush fund.
- Obviously, that.
Wait, where's the other guy?
Weird beard science dick?
- Everyone knows that
sourdough starter is alive,
but the question remains,
is it horny?
[glass shatters]
slater: Listen up.
Our intelligence says
that fabian will venture out
into the open soon,
then you'll kill him.
- Wait, this is
a straight-up assassination?
- What are you, children?
Yes!
He's blackmailed
the president of manatina
into declaring martial law,
and is turning the whole country
into his personal fiefdom.
- Why not just
have cia hitmen do it?
- First off,
the cia doesn't have hitmen.
Second, they're busy.
Third, we can't have
our fingerprints on this.
Unlike every pastry
you dingdongs make.
- Yeah, it'd be a real shame
if the cia got a bad name.
- All I'm saying is
that we can't have blowback.
So if I get captured...
- put a bullet in your head?
- No! Jesus.
Just rescue me.
You were way too quick
with that.
And the fewer cia people
we have involved, the better.
We might have a mole.
- Oh, you don't say.
- I mean, at this point
isn't langley
considered
a national wildlife refuge?
- You've got so many rodents
in the cia
that the "c" probably stands
for chuck e cheese.
- Why are you thinking
about chuck e cheese?
Because you want to go there
with a kid that you got tricked
into having, who no longer
sees you as her father?
Or maybe the other kid you had
with a hooker?
- Whoa.
Jesus, slater.
- The "c" stands for central.
It's a soft "c".
[phone vibrates]
all right,
let's go kill the guy.
[main title theme]
♪ ♪
s fabian is leaving
the presidential residence soon,
and the only route takes him
through the central square
and right by us here
at the confectionery institute
of the americas.
- Subtle.
- I don't do subtle.
- Has anyone ever explained
to you what a spy is?
- Has anyone ever explained
to you what alcoholism is?
- Yeah, like dozens of times.
- Okay, this is our killbox.
- Oh, great.
The only problem I have
with this is that it is insane.
You can't put a killbox
in a public square.
- Hmm, let me look.
Yeah, I can,
and if you don't want
to do this mission,
it is your god given right
as an american to go home
and face the crimes
you've all been framed for.
- Honestly,
not one of my favorite rights.
- Move over,
quartering of soldiers.
- This is president lucero,
until now,
a progressive reformer.
But she's been blackmailed
and possibly taken hostage
by fabian and a security team
led by
our friend ray gillette.
- [cheryl gasps]
hey, I know that guy!
- Look, cheryl, fairy stix!
- [squeals]
- I always carry some.
Continue.
- Wait, how are we gonna take
out fabian without hitting ray?
- I mean, he's being a douche,
but if being a douche
were a capital offense,
we'd have to carpet bomb
wall street.
- And frankly, seems expensive.
- Look, ray made his choice.
And this might be
our only chance
before fabian
solidifies control.
- Aw, but it's ray.
I just... [sighs]
I just put
so much awesome tech in him.
He's more machine now than man.
- Look, I get it.
I'm human.
And I'm sensitive
to your feelings here,
but if it comes down to it,
shoot fabian
through ray's goddamn head.
- What about her?
- She's not our concern.
It's the cia's policy
not to intervene
in other countries'
internal politics.
- Or you're hoping
this mess will get her deposed
and you can replace her
with a right-wing dictator.
- Touché.
- I think it's pronounced
pinochet.
- Whatever.
Be ready in half an hour.
- Not to be sentimental,
but if ray does die,
I'd like my stuff back
from his corpse.
[sadly]
did anybody bring a chainsaw?
- Everybody ready?
- Yeah, but it's weird
not having ray here.
- Come on, he'd probably
just make some crack
about how I'm unreliable
and drunk.
It's just so unfair.
- Yeah, he'd say something like,
"if only we had
to kill your liver,
we could just wait 10 minutes."
- aha, okay.
- Easy, 007 and seven.
- Okay.
- If I wanted a partner
that pissed,
I'd team up with your underwear
tomorrow morning.
- Okay, jesus.
Now I really do
want to kill him.
- Do you really think
he's gone bad?
- I mean, he did give
all our secrets to fabian,
and before that, he was working
at iia without telling us.
- And he was really touchy
about the snake bite thing,
and the spider bite thing.
I mean, come on, get over it.
I did, like, immediately.
- Okay, we'll have a better shot
at not killing ray
if we adjust these positions
slightly.
- I've got it, lana.
Here's what we do.
Okay, so the first task
is blocking the exit.
Cheryl, that's on you.
- "father of freedom,
may you stand and watch over us
until the last trumpet plays."
yikes.
- We're gonna need a trumpet.
Archer: Pam, after that,
you'll join cyril
at the entrance,
so they can't retreat.
- So we're, uh,
really doing this.
- No, you're dreaming.
That's why this doesn't hurt.
- Ah!
Archer:
Lana, you're eagle eye.
Call out threats.
[over radio] if you've got
a clear shot, take it.
Meanwhile, I will ready myself
for combat using
spiritual techniques
that owe much too
spartan and maori ritual.
Excuse me,
I asked for a martini,
not a liquid analog
of your character;
weak and disappointing.
Lana:
Archer, I'm seeing an alleyway
that's not on the map.
Could be
a possible escape route.
We should shift...
- Lana, quick question.
Are you laszlo toth?
- [sighs] I am not.
- Then why are you despoiling
my perfect work of art?
Fabian will be
in the middle of the motorcade
well past the alley.
[over radio]
it'll be fine.
Lana: Motorcade approaching.
Three cars.
30 seconds to contact.
- Let's pucker and poke her,
boys.
Lana: Come on.
- Really?
Cheryl: No!
- Look, as leader,
you need to clear
a new catchphrase with me
before you trot it out
in front of everybody
like a brain damaged
suicidal circus horse.
Wink your stinks,
no time to think.
- What did I just say?
Lana: Everyone shut up.
Cheryl,
are you ready to detonate?
- Ready!
Man: Miss?
- Less ready.
Not ready!
- Abort! Abort!
- Just throw it!
[brakes squeal]
[screaming]
- ha ha!
It was the last trump...
Oh, it hit the woodwinds.
[tires squeal]
[gunshot]
[tires squealing, crash]
archer: Converge on car two!
Lana: No, do not converge.
He might not be...
- ignore! Converge!
Also, abort that last order.
Just for spite.
- Nobody's here.
Lana: Come on, ray.
Bend down and tie
your shoe or something.
I don't have the shot!
I repeat, no shot.
Archer, the cafe!
[panting]
[door ringing]
- oh, you little...
- [shouts]
[dramatic music]
- can't say I'm sorry, fabian.
What the shit, ray?
You're gonna take a bullet
for this douchehole?
- Kinda hoping not to,
but I'm not the one
pointing a gun at me!
- He made the only
rational choice, archer.
You should do the same.
An entire country
at your disposal.
Every appetite fulfilled.
- Hah! My appetites will
never be fulfilled, fabian,
because I am ultimately empty,
is, I guess, what I'm arguing.
But it doesn't matter.
You can't do a hostile takeover
of a whole country.
You'll get thrown out
eventually.
- True,
if I didn't have leverage.
We discovered
the world's biggest deposit
of the rare earth metal
hexon downriver.
Thanks for getting me a sample
last time you were here.
- Come on, ray.
We have to save the agency.
It's mother's legacy.
That has to mean something
to you.
- Don't guilt trip me!
You didn't even come see me
in the hospital
when you got me bitten
by that snake!
- [chortling]
- and now you're giggling
about it!
- I am not.
Ray, I swear, I was thinking
of something else.
[laughing]
it was the spider.
- Well, now I found someone
who knows what loyalty means.
[grunts]
- sorry!
It was just the perfect moment
for that!
Ray: You idiot!
- Oh, I'm the idiot?
You just got double-crossed!
- I was playing him!
- But that doesn't make any...
Okay.
That might make a little sense,
but why didn't you kill him?
- Because I'm not gonna kill
the one person
who can actually
clear our names!
You think slater cares enough
to do it?
And now we don't even
have anybody on the inside!
- That's where you're wrong,
ray.
Slater has a mole!
- I'm the mole!
- Wow.
He was totally willing
to kill you to get to fabian.
- What a freaking shock.
I was trying to set this up
so we could capture fabian
and have him clear our names.
So you just made this
whole thing infinitely harder.
Ass.
- Well, obviously,
but what about... huh.
But wait, then...
Ah, shit.
- Well, yet another
successful mission
for the ass-for-head gang.
- Yeah, well,
maybe you could have told us
ray was your man on the inside.
- How would that have helped?
- Maybe they wouldn't
have almost killed me?
- No, I mean
how would that help me?
And how do we even know
you're not playing both sides
right now?
- Oh, don't answer
all at once, y'all.
- Ugh!
Now I have to bring in
an independent kill team.
- Where are you gonna find
an independent kill team?
- The cia!
We'll just make them all
change their shirts.
The point is,
you're all demoted to support.
- And if we don't agree?
- Good luck getting through
the airport metal detector
with my steel-toed boot
up your ass.
And even if you made it
back to america,
you'd still all be felons.
- Seriously?
- Oh, come on.
- Yeah, that's right.
Now I have to go talk
to the real professionals.
And get those
fucking muffins done.
- So y'all baking now?
- Shut up, ray.
- No, I won't shut up.
Can we at least acknowledge
y'all were wrong about me?
Do you honestly still think
I've gone over to fabian?
- And that's unlikely, why?
- Okay, that's fair.
But I'm back now,
and I think we should call it
"raydemption."
- how about possibly
not a raging asshole?
Emphasis on possibly.
- I like mine better.
- Look, it kind of seems like
we're cornered here.
So maybe we just do the job
and sort it out later.
- No. No, that is not
what we are doing.
Look, my whole with iia
was to go with the flow,
do my job, and go home.
And look where that got us.
There was no way we get out
of this if we just hope
things turn out okay.
We have to take control.
- Yeah, that's a fun series
of words, lana,
but so is mad libs.
- Okay, so how's this?
We pretend to work support,
go rogue, grab fabian,
get him out of the country,
and use him to clear our names.
- Well, that I do like.
You got a plan?
- Always.
- So to be clear,
are we or aren't we
playing mad libs?
Either way,
my response is boobs.
[dramatic music]
slater: Listen up failures,
what I need you to do
is nothing.
Sit here and smell each other's
farts until I say.
We may need you
for a distraction,
or something.
- Okay, we don't have much time
before the heavy hitters
get here.
- Uh, since it's my plan,
shouldn't I be the one talking?
- That goes against
my every instinct,
but we don't have time to argue.
So I'm gonna keep talking
because it feels natural.
Ray, you can't go in
because they know your face,
but you know the layout
and the security holes,
so you're gonna be crucial
on the radio.
We're counting on you.
Pam: Really?
Cyril: Good lord!
Cheryl: I mean...
Lana: Hey!
Ray risked his life for us!
So shut up and get going.
Hey, ray, I just wanna say
that I appreciate
the sacrifices you made.
- Finally, someone!
Thank you.
- But if you do betray us,
I'll flay you under
a lemon juice waterfall.
I'll make
an aztec blood sacrifice
look like a girl scout jamboree.
Now gulp and then say,
"yes, lana."
- [gulps] yes, lana.
Archer: Whew!
Oh, buddy, sorry about lana.
Because I think she was
a little too lenient.
And speaking of jamborees,
I will roast marshmallows
over your burning,
but still barely alive body.
- Y'all's level of trust
is truly inspiring.
[suspenseful music]
- ready?
- Uh, not sure.
You wanna give me a speech
about my plan before we go?
- Don't be petty, lana.
It's unbecoming.
- Don't forget your bag.
Archer: Ow!
[thumping]
[splash]

- Oh no, wait! That was my bag.

you've all been framed for.
- Honestly,
not one of my favorite rights.
- Move over,
quartering of soldiers.
- This is president lucero,
until now,
a progressive reformer.
But she's been blackmailed
and possibly taken hostage
by fabian and a security team
led by
our friend ray gillette.
- [cheryl gasps]
hey, I know that guy!
- Look, cheryl, fairy stix!
- [squeals]
- I always carry some.
Continue.
- Wait, how are we gonna take
out fabian without hitting ray?
- I mean, he's being a douche,
but if being a douche
were a capital offense,
we'd have to carpet bomb
wall street.
- And frankly, seems expensive.
- Look, ray made his choice.
And this might be
our only chance
before fabian
solidifies control.
- Aw, but it's ray.
I just... [sighs]
I just put
so much awesome tech in him.
He's more machine now than man.
- Look, I get it.
I'm human.
And I'm sensitive
to your feelings here,
but if it comes down to it,
shoot fabian
through ray's goddamn head.
- What about her?
- She's not our concern.
It's the cia's policy
not to intervene
in other countries'
internal politics.
- Or you're hoping
this mess will get her deposed
and you can replace her
with a right-wing dictator.
- Touché.
- I think it's pronounced
pinochet.
- Whatever.
Be ready in half an hour.
- Not to be sentimental,
but if ray does die,
I'd like my stuff back
from his corpse.
[sadly]
did anybody bring a chainsaw?
- Everybody ready?
- Yeah, but it's weird
not having ray here.
- Come on, he'd probably
just make some crack
about how I'm unreliable
and drunk.
It's just so unfair.
- Yeah, he'd say something like,
"if only we had
to kill your liver,
we could just wait 10 minutes."
- aha, okay.
- Easy, 007 and seven.
- Okay.
- If I wanted a partner
that pissed,
I'd team up with your underwear
tomorrow morning.
- Okay, jesus.
Now I really do
want to kill him.
- Do you really think
he's gone bad?
- I mean, he did give
all our secrets to fabian,
and before that, he was working
at iia without telling us.
- And he was really touchy
about the snake bite thing,
and the spider bite thing.
I mean, come on, get over it.
I did, like, immediately.
- Okay, we'll have a better shot
at not killing ray
if we adjust these positions
slightly.
- I've got it, lana.
Here's what we do.
Okay, so the first task
is blocking the exit.
Cheryl, that's on you.
- "father of freedom,
may you stand and watch over us
until the last trumpet plays."
yikes.
- We're gonna need a trumpet.
Archer: Pam, after that,
you'll join cyril
at the entrance,
so they can't retreat.
- So we're, uh,
really doing this.
- No, you're dreaming.
That's why this doesn't hurt.
- Ah!
Archer:
Lana, you're eagle eye.
Call out threats.
[over radio] if you've got
a clear shot, take it.
Meanwhile, I will ready myself
for combat using
spiritual techniques
that owe much too
spartan and maori ritual.
Excuse me,
I asked for a martini,
not a liquid analog
of your character;
weak and disappointing.
Lana:
Archer, I'm seeing an alleyway
that's not on the map.
Could be
a possible escape route.
We should shift...
- Lana, quick question.
Are you laszlo toth?
- [sighs] I am not.
- Then why are you despoiling
my perfect work of art?
Fabian will be
in the middle of the motorcade
well past the alley.
[over radio]
it'll be fine.
Lana: Motorcade approaching.
Three cars.
30 seconds to contact.
- Let's pucker and poke her,
boys.
Lana: Come on.
- Really?
Cheryl: No!
- Look, as leader,
you need to clear
a new catchphrase with me
before you trot it out
in front of everybody
like a brain damaged
suicidal circus horse.
Wink your stinks,
no time to think.
- What did I just say?
Lana: Everyone shut up.
Cheryl,
are you ready to detonate?
- Ready!
Man: Miss?
- Less ready.
Not ready!
- Abort! Abort!
- Just throw it!
[brakes squeal]
[screaming]
- ha ha!
It was the last trump...
Oh, it hit the woodwinds.
[tires squeal]
[gunshot]
[tires squealing, crash]
archer: Converge on car two!
Lana: No, do not converge.
He might not be...
- ignore! Converge!
Also, abort that last order.
Just for spite.
- Nobody's here.
Lana: Come on, ray.
Bend down and tie
your shoe or something.
I don't have the shot!
I repeat, no shot.
Archer, the cafe!
[panting]
[door ringing]
- oh, you little...
- [shouts]
[dramatic music]
- can't say I'm sorry, fabian.
What the shit, ray?
You're gonna take a bullet
for this douchehole?
- Kinda hoping not to,
but I'm not the one
pointing a gun at me!
- He made the only
rational choice, archer.
You should do the same.
An entire country
at your disposal.
Every appetite fulfilled.
- Hah! My appetites will
never be fulfilled, fabian,
because I am ultimately empty,
is, I guess, what I'm arguing.
But it doesn't matter.
You can't do a hostile takeover
of a whole country.
You'll get thrown out
eventually.
- True,
if I didn't have leverage.
We discovered
the world's biggest deposit
of the rare earth metal
hexon downriver.
Thanks for getting me a sample
last time you were here.
- Come on, ray.
We have to save the agency.
It's mother's legacy.
That has to mean something
to you.
- Don't guilt trip me!
You didn't even come see me
in the hospital
when you got me bitten
by that snake!
- [chortling]
- and now you're giggling
about it!
- I am not.
Ray, I swear, I was thinking
of something else.
[laughing]
it was the spider.
- Well, now I found someone
who knows what loyalty means.
[grunts]
- sorry!
It was just the perfect moment
for that!
Ray: You idiot!
- Oh, I'm the idiot?
You just got double-crossed!
- I was playing him!
- But that doesn't make any...
Okay.
That might make a little sense,
but why didn't you kill him?
- Because I'm not gonna kill
the one person
who can actually
clear our names!
You think slater cares enough
to do it?
And now we don't even
have anybody on the inside!
- That's where you're wrong,
ray.
Slater has a mole!
- I'm the mole!
- Wow.
He was totally willing
to kill you to get to fabian.
- What a freaking shock.
I was trying to set this up
so we could capture fabian
and have him clear our names.
So you just made this
whole thing infinitely harder.
Ass.
- Well, obviously,
but what about... huh.
But wait, then...
Ah, shit.
- Well, yet another
successful mission
for the ass-for-head gang.
- Yeah, well,
maybe you could have told us
ray was your man on the inside.
- How would that have helped?
- Maybe they wouldn't
have almost killed me?
- No, I mean
how would that help me?
And how do we even know
you're not playing both sides
right now?
- Oh, don't answer
all at once, y'all.
- Ugh!
Now I have to bring in
an independent kill team.
- Where are you gonna find
an independent kill team?
- The cia!
We'll just make them all
change their shirts.
The point is,
you're all demoted to support.
- And if we don't agree?
- Good luck getting through
the airport metal detector
with my steel-toed boot
up your ass.
And even if you made it
back to america,
you'd still all be felons.
- Seriously?
- Oh, come on.
- Yeah, that's right.
Now I have to go talk
to the real professionals.
And get those
fucking muffins done.
- So y'all baking now?
- Shut up, ray.
- No, I won't shut up.
Can we at least acknowledge
y'all were wrong about me?
Do you honestly still think
I've gone over to fabian?
- And that's unlikely, why?
- Okay, that's fair.
But I'm back now,
and I think we should call it
"raydemption."
- how about possibly
not a raging asshole?
Emphasis on possibly.
- I like mine better.
- Look, it kind of seems like
we're cornered here.
So maybe we just do the job
and sort it out later.
- No. No, that is not
what we are doing.
Look, my whole with iia
was to go with the flow,
do my job, and go home.
And look where that got us.
There was no way we get out
of this if we just hope
things turn out okay.
We have to take control.
- Yeah, that's a fun series
of words, lana,
but so is mad libs.
- Okay, so how's this?
We pretend to work support,
go rogue, grab fabian,
get him out of the country,
and use him to clear our names.
- Well, that I do like.
You got a plan?
- Always.
- So to be clear,
are we or aren't we
playing mad libs?
Either way,
my response is boobs.
[dramatic music]
slater: Listen up failures,
what I need you to do
is nothing.
Sit here and smell each other's
farts until I say.
We may need you
for a distraction,
or something.
- Okay, we don't have much time
before the heavy hitters
get here.
- Uh, since it's my plan,
shouldn't I be the one talking?
- That goes against
my every instinct,
but we don't have time to argue.
So I'm gonna keep talking
because it feels natural.
Ray, you can't go in
because they know your face,
but you know the layout
and the security holes,
so you're gonna be crucial
on the radio.
We're counting on you.
Pam: Really?
Cyril: Good lord!
Cheryl: I mean...
Lana: Hey!
Ray risked his life for us!
So shut up and get going.
Hey, ray, I just wanna say
that I appreciate
the sacrifices you made.
- Finally, someone!
Thank you.
- But if you do betray us,
I'll flay you under
a lemon juice waterfall.
I'll make
an aztec blood sacrifice
look like a girl scout jamboree.
Now gulp and then say,
"yes, lana."
- [gulps] yes, lana.
Archer: Whew!
Oh, buddy, sorry about lana.
Because I think she was
a little too lenient.
And speaking of jamborees,
I will roast marshmallows
over your burning,
but still barely alive body.
- Y'all's level of trust
is truly inspiring.
[suspenseful music]
- ready?
- Uh, not sure.
You wanna give me a speech
about my plan before we go?
- Don't be petty, lana.
It's unbecoming.
