As we left off last week it looked like Nancy and Andy were about to be busted with bags of marijuana after their van was ticketed and booted due to unpaid parking tickets (thanks to the license plate Silas stole). In this week's episode, the two super sleuths wait for the cops to leave and are now in the market place for a new set of wheels, and a way out of town... again. To quote Nancy, “Goodbye Seattle, it never even rained. What a rip off.”
As Doug digs what appears to be his own grave, he tries to re-discover his faith – you know ‘cause he “tried to read the Bible, but it always felt like a much less awesome Lord of the Rings.” The Man above answers his prayers as his life is spared when OnStar calls Andy’s phone and provides the van's location to Cesar (note to those on the run: a hotel pen is as much of a dead giveaway as a pre-programmed GPS, so use neither).
With ice coffee in tow -- you know money’s tight (or product placement is nigh) when Nancy drinks McDonalds instead of Starbucks -- the duo waits for the bus home. Andy begs to be released from Nancy’s hold, wanting to hear that they will never be together. Nancy explains that they all die and she likes Andy too much to want him to die.
The Botwins throw another problem on the pile as they discover that one of the maids at the hotel has been stealing Nancy’s drug money. The two go at it, and Nancy emerges from the room with a little bloody feather earring – now we know where Shane gets it from.
As Nancy notices Doug in the back of Cesar’s car she knows it’s all over and that they’re about to get caught. Crisis mounts as the Sheriff’s department and child protective services arrive, and seize Shane. Nancy, literally backing herself into a corner, locks herself in a room and sits on the floor looking disheveled as an angry earring-less maid pounding at the door. Is there anywhere left to run?
