The story so far
Everything you need before watchingThugs bag David and dump him in Brad's office. Plastic sheeting covers the floor; David has seen Dexter and thinks this is a kill room. Brad laughs: he is installing a skylight. Then he wants his money. David swears he was robbed. Brad offers a win-win: mule a load up from Mexico by Sunday, debt forgiven, courier fee attached. David hears federal crime and twenty-five years. Brad reminds him he has no choice.
