Vambre and Prohyas pretend to be cops in order to shakedown dangerous pirates to locate a broccoli smuggler.


  • Good Cop/Bad Cop: Vambre and Prohyas spend a majority of the episode arguing about who's supposed to be the bad cop.
  • "The Reason You Suck" Speech: Prohyas gives one to Vambre when he gets tired of her criticizing his methods of being a different cop for the interrogation. Vambre feels guilty by the end of it which also leads to an "Eureka!" Moment to solve the smuggler case.
    Vambre: Och, I should just do the interrogation by myself. I can't believe you thought clown cop was a good idea.
    Prohyas: (angry) May I remind you that you had no interest in hearing me out before? You just bolted for the door with zero discussion. Why should you have all the fun on this mission? Just 'cause you read it in a book? Call me when there's a "Veronica Victorious And There's Two People On This Team", or "Veronica Victorious And This Business We Set Up Is Supposed To Be Fun For Both Of Us"! Want to go it alone? Fine. Then I might as well go home and play checkers with Grup. Maybe ''clown'' checkers!
  • Very Loosely Based on a True Story: In the end of the episode, Grup gives a message to the viewer claiming that the episode was actually true and the names haven't been changed to protect the innocent, apologizing for having forgotten that.
