Beacon Hills Sheriff Station

Stiles, Leo and Lydia follow Parrish into the sheriff station. "Your dad should be back within the hour. You want to wait in his office?" Parrish asked Stiles. "Actually, we wanted to talk to you..." Stiles said. "Privately." Lydia said. "Yeah." Leo said. The three of them go back into Stilinski's office, and they show Parrish the deadpool list. "This is a hit-list?" Parrish asked. "We call it a Deadpool. Recognize any of the names?" Stiles asked. "Yeah... the Sheriff had me run a bunch of these through the system last night, but we couldn't find any of them." Parrish said. Stiles looked at Leo. "Show him the other thing..." Stiles said. Leo flipped the page, showing Parrish's name.

"Okay... That's kind of terrifying." Parrish said. He then looked at the number beside his name. "What's the number?" Parrish asked. "That's how much you're worth..." Lydia said. "I'm worth five dollars???" Parrish asked offended. Leo shook his head. "Million. Five million!" Leo said. Parrish looked back down at the list. "I only make forty thousand a year! Maybe I should kill myself." Parrish said grimly. "That took a dark turn." Leo murmured. "I don't get it. Why... Why am I on this?" Parrish asked.

"Honestly...? That might be a question for another day. Right now, there's still another third of the list we gotta crack." Stiles said. "We need the third cipher key... But, we need help getting it..." Lydia said. "From who?" Parrish asked. "Meredith..." Leo said. "The girl from Eichen? The last time you saw her, you almost gave her a nervous breakdown!" Parrish said. Lydia scoffed. "Uh, almost!" Lydia said. "Plus, if you're in the room, she's more likely to talk." Leo said. Parrish looked at him confused. "Did you see they way she was eyeing you?" Leo asked. Parrish shrugged. "Not really." Parrish said.

"Really?" Leo asked. He looked at Lydia. "It was obvious, right?" Leo asked her. Lydia nodded. Leo looked at Parrish. "I was more focused on getting her to talk." Parrish said. Leo nodded. "Sure. That's what they all say." Leo said. "Let's just go." Parrish said. Leo smiled as Parrish walked past them. He looked at Stiles and Lydia. "You're welcome." Leo said. "What did you do exactly?" Stiles asked. "I embarrassed him to the point where he'll do whatever we want which leads to not talking about it anymore." Leo said. Stiles looked slightly impressed. "Cool." Stiles said. "Thanks." Leo said.

Later ~ Eichen House

Parrish, Leo, Lydia, and Stiles are at Eichen House waiting for the orderly to open Meredith's room. Brunski catches them and takes the keys away. "Oh, no. Not this guy..." Stiles said. "What the hell are we running here, a bed and breakfast? We do not just open the door for anyone with a badge!" Brunski said. "We need to talk to Meredith Walker. It involves a murder investigation." Parrish said. "Well, you can talk to her all you want, but these three? Especially that one? They're outta here." Brunski said, looking at Stiles more than Lydia and Leo. "They're crucial witnesses in an ongoing investigation. I wouldn't have brought them if it wasn't absolutely... crucial." Parrish said.

"Okay, Deputy. How about you come back with a court order, then I'll listen." Brunski said before looking at Stiles. "As for you, Mr. Stilinski... How about you come back with payment in full?" Brunski asked. Stiles looked down. "That's right-- Daddy may be the Sheriff, but he's late on the bills. I guess those government jobs aren't as reliable as they used to be, huh?" Brunski said. "But they do help when you need a favor... Like, how, a month ago, Canaan P.D. helped you get home after blowing 0.1 on a breathalyzer." Parrish said. "No..." Stiles said in amusement. "All right... I'm not against a little quid pro quo... Not at all... Not at all..." Brunski said embarrassed. He hands Stiles the keys, and as he walks away, Leo gives him the middle finger.

Stiles looked at Parrish. "You! You. I like you. I'm gonna keep you." Stiles said. Parrish looked confused and looked at Lydia and Leo. "It's Stiles saying that he thinks that's your cool and wants you around." Leo said. Parrish nodded before smiling. Leo shook his head smiling. "Alright. Let's go talk to Meredith. Again." Leo said.
