Michael VOs that although you usually want to go into the field with only trained operatives, sometimes you can't avoid bringing in a civilian. Cut to Madeline's house, where Jesse and Michael have just asked her to help them rob a bank. She's not exactly jumping at the opportunity. Michael explains that they really just want to steal one safety deposit box. Jesse explains to her that it's connected to the case he was working on when he got fired, and all Madeline needs to do is trigger the alarm so they can see how the guards react. "All you have to do is the one thing I can never get you to stop doing," Michael says, chivalrously lighting her cigarette for her. Between that and Jesse's cajoling, he gets her to agree.

Later, Madeline's entering the bank, while at the same time, Jesse goes in as a sandwich delivery guy. Michael VOs about how that kind of job doesn't require the same kind of background checks that bank guard does. So Jessie applied for a job as a delivery guy, got the job, and waited around for the guards to order food? Glad it worked out. As Jesse is allowed into the bank's guard room, Michael's VO adds, "It gets you the same access, plus a tip." Well, that explains how they afford all their munitions and surveillance equipment. Jesse passes out the sandwiches while, in the room where the safety deposit boxes are kept, Madeline lights up. Moments later, alarms start going off, and Jesse feigns docile submission as the guards launch into action. He can also see Madeline on one of the surveillance monitors doing her chimney bit and wonders if the guards aren't overreacting, but a guard says smoking in there is against state law; "She's doing jail time."

Outside, Jesse gets back into Michael's car, his every pore radiating "Oops." Michael freaks out at the news that his mom is getting arrested, because it's even worse than it seems; in addition to the Epic Son Fail of getting your mother busted by the fuzz, there's the fact that Madeline opened an account there, with her real name and address. Jesse joins him in panic and says they have to spring her before the cops get there. But then they turn to see her sitting on a bench outside the window, still smoking the same cigarette and explaining how she gained the guards' sympathy by acting the sad widow with pictures of her dead husband. "First thing Frank's been good for in thirty years," she says, which is a little harsh. Sure, he was an abusive dick, but Michael's also been using his dad's shit for the last three and a half seasons. "Get in the car," Michael says. His dad's car, that is.
