I'll take the rod

and write a check here.

You have a pen?

Thank you.

Yeah, sure enough. You betcha. Okay.

You know, I've never seen you

around here, Mr...

Buzzin.

Buzzin Frog.

Born on the shores

of the Euro Larvae River in Rapala.

Couple of husky jerks...

...brought me to Slimy Slug,

South Dakota.

Up there by Timber Doodle?

The Zebco brothers, Smithwick...

...and Salty Dog Shrimp...

Ohh!

I can't go fishing this afternoon.

I've got a big meeting over at...

...Menzrum.

I'd forget my genitals if they weren't

SuperGlued in between my legs.

Water-skiing accident.

Freeze, Harrison!

Don't move.

You know, I've never seen you

around here, Mr...

Buzzin.

Buzzin Frog.

Born on the shores

of the Euro Larvae River...

...in Rapala.

Up there by Timber Doodle?

...Salty Dog Shrimp.

I've got a big meeting

over at Menzrum.

There's got to be something here...

...some clue, somewhere.

- Ryan.

- What are you doing here?

- How did you get in?

- The door was open.

I locked that door.

A key.

Lauren is missing. She gave you a key,

sent you to do evidence housecleaning.

No, I painted Hibbing's portrait.

He gave me this key to let myself in.

I have no idea where Lauren is.

The killer could be stalking her.

Stalking, schmalking. She lied

about me on the witness stand.

She set me up to come here

the night of the murder.

She couldn't do anything like that.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda.

She dida!

I understand her.

You see, I think she's my sister.

Sister?

It's like a brother,

only you do each other's hair.

I think she's in grave danger.

I came to look for clues.

Ryan, I know you're innocent.

You really mean that?

This is not just

another way to meet guys?

I'm a friend.

I wish that we could be friends.

But women and me...

...are like water and fire...

Wet and flammable.

No, no.

You hang out with me...

...and you're going to get hurt.

No.

It was all mine.

The city was at my feet,

spread out like an oyster.

People bravoed, they ovated.

I was somebody,

I was a contender.

Now all I've got

is a one-way ticket to Palookaville.

It's got to be that the answer

is here somewhere.

The party...

...drinks, drinking...

...the bar.

There was something

about the bartender.

Close your eyes.

The bartender!

Hibbing's killer!

You...

...with the killer.

Good Lord!

The bus stop at Helm's

is the 5:
50 express.

It stops right in front

of the Goodhue house.

Scour the entire area.

Orono, chase the car

and put it in park.

Bagley, I want everyone interrogated.

I want surnames, last names,

given names, confirmation names.

Give me photo analysis,

footprint analysis...

...DNA, bra sizes.

I'll check out

who belongs to this truck.
