Let Me Be Your Black Dude

Charlotte from Lost: Meanwhile, I trip the radiation leak alarm, so everyone gets locked in together. I may not have learned that from Ben Linus, but I like to think he's nodding in approval, somewhere.

Meanwhile, at the precinct...

...

Recapper: Anyone? Bueller?

George: There's not enough coffee in the world.

Jim: Yeah. No.

Rachel: Oh fine! I'll do this?

Recapper: Who are you?

[Editor: She's the chick from Warehouse 13! Myka, I love you!]

Rachel: I'm Rachel Jacobs of Internal Affairs. There have been a lot of recent arrests involving perps who are brought in while still unconscious. I'm thinking we have a rogue cop on our hands. And while I don't know it, yet, every case is one into which Jim inserted himself. While I question George, Jim is secretly freaking at his desk. It's not too long before Davies and his minions overpower the cops who are bringing them in. Next thing you know, they've taken the lot of us hostage. In a police precinct. With live cops there and everything. Because they weren't cuffed. Oh my word, no wonder you all are so dispirited. Can I have coffee, too?

Recapper: You gotta earn it, first. We've been doing this for 13 weeks. You've been doing it for minutes.

Rachel: Fair enough. So anyhow, George and Jim manage to stay out of the bad guys' sight, and he and George cook up a little plan, where Jim is Bruce Willis in Die Hard (although far less appealing, yeah?) and George is... Um, am I allowed to say this?

Recapper: Yeah. Why wouldn't you be?

Rachel: I don't know. Maybe it's white liberal guilt, but I don't think I can do it.

George: Oh for Pete's sake. I said it myself. Here, let me do it. I remind Jim that in Die Hard, Bruce Willis had a black dude on the inside, and then I say, "Let me be your black dude."

Recapper: ...which is what you've been all along anyhow, right?

[Editor: Is this a bad place to point out that Bruce actually had a black dude on the outside, not the inside? Technically, he was the white dude on the inside. Although he also had another black dude down in the parking garage. ...I'll shut up now.]
