Peacemaker 1x02
Continuing from 'A Whole New Whirled'.
Chris calls Harcourt, yelling, "What the fuck is Project Butterfly?", as he has just been almost killed by one and then exploded her with the sonic boom. He's going back to her apartment to get his shit - as he's running around in his underwear and the helmet. Harcourt gets halfway dressed and runs down to Leota's hotel room, where she tells Leota that Peacemaker's just killed a butterfly and that Leota needs to drive.
Credits!
Chris struggles into his too-tight uniform. Harcourt wakes up everyone else. Leota tells Harcourt about her dogs.
Evergreen PD detectives arrive at the apartment building, then Harcourt and Leota roll up. Meanwhile, Chris takes a bunch of the dead lady's CDs and records, cookie cutters ("I see cookies in my future"), and also finds a weird device with glowing blue symbols. He takes this, too. Harcourt calls to tell him the cops are there, and he asks her to look for Eagly. "Roll down the window, stick your hand outside, and then crinkle a bag. He'll think you have chips." "Why are you feeding him chips?" (this becomes a running joke)
Chris looks out the window and now the cops know he's here. There's a bunch of "search the apartment building stuff", and Chris gets into a different apartment, where he takes a couple hostage, but rather ineptly. He hits on the wife, and she hits back. The couple then argues about Foster the People and whether or not the wife wants to bang Peacemaker while he ties them up. He then jumps off their balcony onto a different balcony, and continues this - but shoddily. How he isn't breaking all his bones, who knows.
More cops arrive. Chris lands on his bad shoulder. Harcourt tranqs a bunch of the cops so Chris can get to the car (and Eagly, too). They take off - even Harcourt is smiling.
Meanwhile, Economos has changed the car registration from Chris' name to... Auggie's! So the cops go to Auggie's and he continues to be a racist fuck (one of the detectives is Asian). He says it's Peacemaker's car and they're like "Did he get out of prison?" as they walk back to their car.
Murn yells at Economos for changing the registration to Auggie's name as everyone else walks into HQ.
Economos sews up Chris' cuts and they insult each other a while. Chris still doesn't know what the butterflies actually are. Harcourt is sure that someone's feeding information to the butterflies, and thinks it's Waller, then thinks it's Leota. Eventually Peacemaker remembers he left the dossier on who they have to kill out at the butterfly lady's apartment, and she read it. Murn is Not Pleased. Then he finds out there were witnesses (the couple that Chris kidnapped) and is even more Not Pleased, and tells Leota to go bribe them.
IT'S TIME FOR ADRIAN!! Peacemaker returns to his trailer, puts on one of the stolen records, cries, and yells at himself (he's realized he sucks!). Vigilante appears at the window (it's still broken) and Peacemaker accuses him of having his dick out (he doesn't) mostly as a cover for his crying, and there's a whole Louis CK conversation that Vigilante doesn't get because he's dumb AND doesn't watch the news.
Chris says he wasn't crying, he was doing face exercises, and Vig is like, "Can you teach them to me?", earnestly because he is stupid. (I say this with love.)
Leota bribes the witness couple, who are down for it.
Vigilante offers to help Chris clean up his trailer - still a mess from when the cops tossed it four years ago - and puts some stuff away while they have a discussion about how Chris doesn't even know who Vigilante really is. Vig picks up a fleshlight and doesn't know what it is, then asks how Chris got out of prison.
Chris is starting to have conflicting emotions about this whole killing for the government thing. Vigilante attempts to offer some sympathy but he is a psychopath and doesn't really have emotions. Chris makes this face:
Because he does feel bad now when he kills someone by mistake. Vigilante wants to celebrate Peacemaker getting out of prison, but Chris can't go, he has to study the dossier of the senator he has to kill. "I've been saving up appliances, ever since you were arrested," Vigilante sing-songs.
Chris cannot refuse. They go shoot up old blenders and toasters while a rock cover of One Direction's "Drag You Down" plays.
The witness couple ID Auggie. He gets arrested.
Leota tells her wife she and their small dogs should go to a different hotel, Keeya is not pleased.
Back at Peacemaker's trailer, he takes a hit off a joint. Which he passes to Amber - the wife of the witness couple - who then offers it to Vigilante. Who is still wearing his mask. This is happening. He says he can't believe weed is legal and that he would have killed them for smoking it two years ago.
Chris looks at the thing with the glowing blue symbols as they sit in bed. It opens up into a tiny spaceship in his lap.
In jail, Auggie's white power friends go all white power, because he's the costumed racist White Dragon. :-/
A metal cover of Foster the People's "Pumped Up Kicks" plays over the end credits.
