Leverage: Redemption, The Too Many Rembrandts Job
And no shortage of rich bad guys.
It’s because we live in the worst timeline.
One year gone but never forgotten.
He was self-righteous. He was arrogant. I swear to God he made it up half the time, but… I miss the hell out of him.
You’re a lightweight, man. I’m not carrying you out of here.
It’s good for them, i’s a fresh start.
Why are you staying at home?
It’s all software. Somebody’s gotta run it.
How you doing since, uh… you know.
You know, I’ve just been doing this and that.
I’m gonna cut this with some food. Hey, I’ll tell you what. I’ll whip up some brunch for us right now.
We should steal something.
This might be a nice distraction for you.
Hey, man, if you happen to find some water or some aspirin…
It’s been eight years since I’ve done this. I need a sec.
This is ridiculous. This is idiotic. You’re being an idiot.
I’m just here for the art.
It was a bit of a rush job, really.
Not now. You’re not gonna believe what’s happening here.
So, anyway, my psychologist says that…
I’m sorry, you’re seeing a child psychologist?
This is not what it looks like.
I don’t know that technique. Where’d you learn that?
You wanted a distraction.
You come very highly recommended. I’m glad to have you on my side.
Oh, I’m not on anybody’s side.
Know any reason I don’t beat you myself?
Well, I promise you’ll have enough to buy it back.
You bank a lot on that sweet-looking face, don’t you?
I… I could not have done this without you.
My whole life, I prided myself on never picking a side. But I began to think all those years, maybe… maybe I had.
And nothing hurts like feeling you’re safe and then… having that taken away from you.
So, are we gonna help this guy, or are we gonna bonk him on the head, wipe his ID and credit rating and we dump him in Venezuela?
I’d like to vote no on that.
You don’t get a vote. Sit your ass back down.
Yeah, you should have seen your face when you realized. You lit up.
I can’t believe I know that.
You want our help or not?
Are you trying to tell me you don’t think you can cold-read this dude?
He’s looking for the next big score.
Highly overrated. Strong results, but amateur technique.
I’ve been the roper for the last eight years.
And don’t worry. I haven’t stabbed anybody in a really long time, like a whole month.
Been doing this a long time?
I was cocky because I was good. You were just cranky.
I had anger issues I needed to work out.
What changed? What happened?
Get a little history on this, brother.
Are these all stolen masterpieces in this closet?
Y'all hear that high-pitched whistle?
What an unsettling metaphor.
More than a deadbeat. He’s a drug dealer.
I think I have a business proposition for you. Can you be at my place around 7:00?
No, it’s completely professional, I assure you.
Unfortunately, a lot of unreasonable people blame my family for their own… ugh… misfortunes.
I don’t like people poking into my personal affairs.
I should go. This was a mistake.
You know, we never… we never really got to talk. If you ever want to… discuss…
Choose your next words very carefully.
Is that weird that I find all of that really attractive?
Your cover ain’t blown, and I ain’t down. You stay there.
I work in the field of violence.
The fight’s already over. I’d just as soon skip the bruises.
It’s a lot faster in person, huh?
Smart thing to do would be to run. Put some space between us. You too.
Why should we trust anything coming out of your mouth?! How do we know this wasn’t a setup?
You think this was my first choice? It’s insane! Obviously it’s insane!
I tried to do the right thing, the right way. I wanted to make amends.
I gotta take something from him.
I’m kind of just left with you in the middle of all of this.
I can go listen to them beg. That’d be fun, right?
Please. Can I have a moment? To mourn.
You take your hands off of me.
Hey! Thanks for letting me into your house! I just had to pick something up.
I believe that’s the first time I’ve seen you smile.
You know, I really wasn’t too sure about the whole gloating thing, but you were right. Seeing his face was very cathartic.
It’s an acquired taste. I’d forgotten how much I enjoyed it myself.
Oh, I’m sorry. Did you think you were done?
In the Jewish faith, repentance, redemption, is a process. You can’t make restitution and then promise to change. You have to change first. Do the work, [name]. Then and only then can you begin to ask for forgiveness.
This isn’t the win. This is the start.
