History Recap / LeverageS01E08TheBankShotJob

* {{Meganekko}}: Sophie goes for this look as part of her cover.

* TheJudge: Roy.

* ItsAllMyFault: Michael is well aware of how his involvement with the meh dealers could get his mother killed and is forcing his dad to help him rob a bank.

Meanwhile, as the meth dealers arrive at the meeting spot, they are surprised to find Roy's bag contains more money than they asked for. Michael's mom tries to escape, but is stopped by the meth dealers. Eliot appears and [[CurbStompBattle beats up all of the dealers]]. Soon, Hardison knocks on the door to deliver some 'pizzas'. Judge Roy assumes it's from Nate's crew and allows them in. Sure enough, inside the pizza box is a pile of money. However, Hardison accuses him of being the robber. Roy realizes that Hardison is one of Nate's crew, but it's too late. Hardison signals Bill and his men, who enters the bank to arrest Judge Roy.

Judge Roy tries to explain the truth to Bill but finds the pizza box is missing while Hardison plays dumb about it (although [[TheUnreveal no one knows how the pizza boxes disappeared]]). Roy tells them that stole his bag of money but Bill finds his bag under the desk and opens it to find bags of meth inside instead. Roy denies that the meth is his, but Hardison accuses Roy's 'out-of-control' behavior on the drugs he's been taking. Roy decides to show Bill the Clarks but was surprise to discover Eliot and Parker instead. Turns out that they switched outfits with the Clarks when they entered the building with Hardison. The two would-be bank robbers, disguised as the paramedics team, waltz out of the bank while taking Nate to the ambulance truck, where Mrs Clark is posing as the driver. Nate weakly requests that they save the heartwarming reunion until ''after'' Nate has been hooked up to a morphine drop.

Back at the bank, Eliot and Sophie fabricate a story about Roy trying to rob the bank, backed up by the [[TheDogBitesBack bank employees]]. Judge Roy tells them to look at the footage -- but Hardison has already doctored the video to show the judge holding Nate at gun point and making the shot to Nate look deliberate rather than accidental. Bill believes it and arrest Roy for it while [[VillainousBreakdown Roy furiously denies it while being drag away]].

-->'''Bill''': Yeah I do, Roy. That's the problem.

* GenreSavvy: Derrick is smart enough to realize that Judge Roy's offer is too good to be true.

* FromCamoflageToCriminal: Clark, Sr. is former military, although he didn't ''want'' to be in this situation.

The team figure out that the robbers are Derrick Clark and his son Michael. It turns out that Michael has been involved with the Meth dealers. The weak before, someone ripped them off, and the gang blames Michael, who is innocent. They kidnapped his mom and demanded for a ransom of a hundred grand by 5 o'clock, or his mother dies. Nate and Sophie talk with the Clarks and gain their trust. The crew successfully takes Judge Roy's bag out of the bank and into Parker's hands, who passes it to Eliot at the meeting point. Judge Roy notices his briefcase has gone missing and begins to freak out. He attacks Michael, and in the attempt to disarm him accidentally [[OnlyAFleshWound shoots Nate in the shoulder.]] In a panic, Sohpie cries out Nate's real name, and Roy realizes he's been conned. He refuses to believe that their con has nothing to do with the Clark's robbery, and takes everyone hostage until he gets his money back. The bank employers tells him to let Nate go as he's bleeding, but Roy refuses to listen to reason. He discovers that both Sophie and Nate use earpieces. He takes them long enough to threaten their accomplices outside, demanding his money back, before destroying both earpieces and cutting the team off from their mastermind.

Meanwhile, as the Meth dealers arrive at the meeting spot, they are surprised to find Roy's bag contains more money than they asked for. Michael's mom tries to escape, but is stopped by the meth dealers. Eliot appears and [[CurbStompBattle beats up all of the dealers]]. Soon, Hardison knocks on the door to deliver some 'pizzas'.
