Recap
Hammer and Doreau grab a drink after work when a drunk hits on a waitress. Doreau manages to restrain Hammer from shooting the man, so Sledge uses a water hose from the bar to wet the man down. Afterward, Doreau berates Hammer for his lack of sympathy but he's unimpressed. They spot thieves breaking into an art gallery but as they go in they notice that the thieves' car belongs to the FBI. Going into the gallery, they spot the two men searching the owner. Hammer and Doreau draw on the men and the owner, Jean Claude, thanks them and then slips away into a private room. He removes the plates from a counterfeit machine while the two men identify themselves as FBI agents after an international counterfeiter. Jean Claude drops one plate and leaves, Doreau comes to investigate. She pulls a counterfeit bill out of the machine and finds the plate, then heads back. The FBI agents demand to see Hammer's badge, which he forgot to pick up. Doreau finds Jean Claude and orders him to surrender. Jean Claude manages to drop a mobile on Doreau's head, knocking her out. Before he can grab the plate, the FBI agents arrive and he runs for it...Read the full recap
