The Waiver Wire Episode 8: Better Call Saul

Despite squeezing a Week 10 win, D'justin Barksdale finds himself in 8th place.

But perhaps the most troublesome fact, is that he is dead last in points scored, by a large margin.

His troubles are about to turn from bad to worse as we head into Week 11.

As he's finishing up his pickup from Oakland, he is suddenly pulled over by SFPD.

D'justin Barksdale

Yo, where my lawyer at?

I'll have him explain to you what racial profiling is.

Police Officer

Sir, we need you to step out of the car.

We got a tip about possible drug trafficking.

D'justin steps out of the car and notices another car pull up.

The SCGD unit reveal that they are behind the tip.

D'justin is arrested for possession with intent to sell.

Det. Tai

Here we are again, D'justin.

You just can't seem to stop getting in trouble.

D'justin Barksdale

Lawyer.

Det. Tai

We're just getting started Just.

You're in some real deep shit this time.

D'justin Barksdale

I'm sick of your games.

What? You want me to write another letter?

Lt. Kevin

No game that we need to run.

You got popped with a kilo of coke.

Det. Tai

But that wasn't your fault.

You did everything right.

Drove the speed limit, checked your lights.

So how did we know when to pull you over?

Someone else fucked up.

You follow?

But it's you that they're gonna blame.

And it's you that gonna do the time.

D'justin Barksdale

I want my lawyer, mother fucker.

Det. Tai

That'll be Levy, right?

The guy who's getting paid by your cousin.

Yeah, he's looking out for your best interest.

D'justin Barksdale

More than you.

Det. Tai

Oh, I'm looking out for your best interest, D'justin.

Because if you don't cooperate with us,

you're going to jail for a long, long time.

I mean, with your prior record, recent run-ins with the law.

You're looking at 20 years, minimum.

But we're giving you a chance to walk.

You know what we want.

Jesse Barksdale and Kenneth Bell.

It's in your best interest to look out for yourself, kid.

D'justin Barksdale

I ain't saying another damn thing to anyone, except my lawyer.

Det. Tai

As you wish.

Lt. Kevin and Det. Tai get up to leave.

Det. Tai

Oh and by the way.

Your boy, Stevens.

Shot dead in the low rises.

That's how y'all take care of your own, right?

D'justin Barksdale

You a lying mother fucker...

*Commercial*

*Commercial*

Kirk Cousins returns to The Mustangs with some shocking information.

Kirk Cousins

I've found the Greek.

Kirk Cousins

Son of a bitch is my brother in law.

The 2017 League Champion,

Rocksonberg.

The Baugh

I want everything we have on Rocksonberg.

We're going to gather the evidence and indict The Greek.

Bring it to a federal judge to initiate a search warrant.

This is it.
This will lead to the end of last year's Champion,
and the apprehension of President Donald J. Trump.

D'justin Barksdale

It wasn't me who fucked up.

Kenneth Bell

Oh, really?

So who did?

Why the fuck are we here?

Maurice Levy

All you gotta do is keep your head up for a little while longer.

We got a good shot of bringing you home at the bail hearing.

D'justin Barksdale

Then what?

How we gonna make all the shit in the back of the car disappear?

....

Where's Stevens at?

Where's the boy, String?

Kenneth Bell

D'justin. Shut your mouth.

D'justin Barksdale

Where's Erik?

That's all I wanna know.

Maurice Levy

Kid, you better think.

D'justin Barksdale

Where the fuck is Erik?

String, look at me!

LOOK AT ME!

WHERE THE FUCK IS ERIK?

I don't want this payless wearing mother fucker representing me!

I'm gonna get my own lawyer!

I'll call Saul Goodman.
So why don't y'all make like a tree,
and get the fuck outta here!

I don't need you mother fuckers.

Kenneth Bell

Alright, you stupid mother fucker.

You made your decision.

D'justin Barksdale

Yeah, I made my decision.

Where's Stevens at?

WHERE'S STEVENS AT, STRING?

STRING!

WHERE THE FUCK IS ERIK?!

*Commercial*

*Commercial*

We return from commercial with a shot of the Hall of Justice.

The Mustangs are in the court house to speak with a federal judge on signing off on a search warrant on The Greek.

None other than the Honorable Brett Kavanaugh.

The Baugh
Your honor, in this file, we have everything we need to create a search warrant for The Greek aka Rocksonberg, last season's WCC Champion and a leading distributor of methamphetamine in the San Francisco Bay Area.
 We believe this search warrant will lead to the arrest and apprehension of one of the most dangerous Fantasy Managers in the league.
Arresting him would end his playoff run and stop him from repeating as Champion.
And we believe we can blow the top off an investigation that could lead to the impeachment of President Trump.

Judge Kavanaugh
And you're sure you want to pursue this?
Baugh, you may be opening Pandora's Box should you go through with this.
If you go after the President, he will surely go after you.
Not to mention the shitstorm from the media once they find out you have evidence against the President.

The Baugh
Well, I'm not planning on starting a press conference.

Judge Kavanaugh
Very well.
I'll have this completed and on your desk by the end of the day.

The Mustangs leave.

Judge Kavanaugh decides to make a phone call.

Rocksonberg

Yes.

Judge Kavanaugh

You've been made, "Greek".

On my desk right now, is a file with damning evidence that would put you away for life.

There is nothing I can do to stop this file from being pushed through.

I can buy you some time, but it's only a matter of time before they catch you.

And if you are in police custody, he will have you killed.

So my advice is... you better disappear.

Now.

Rocksonberg quickly hangs up and dials another phone number.

Rocksonberg
Uhh... hi. Yeah, I need a uh, new dust filter for my Hoover Max Extract Pressure Pro Model 60.
Right now.
