*chuckles at the tool comment and nods* yeah youre right, that would be pretty bold to just walk in and announce. Youre also right about both Chet and Garrett being too scared of you to even get near the courthouse...

*sighs also turning to see the gathered people munching on popcorn in the booking room* yeah a volunteer would be good... *turns back to Brian* as for one or both of those two coming in here and just flat out saying what they have in mind... *chuckles* I wouldnt put it past Chet to do just that, you know sometimes hes not the sharpest tool in the shed...

*sighs seeing the concern and pats cellmate on the back* Come on Brian you arent out of friends! Youre one of the coolest people in Hazzard and I refuse to believe youre friendless! Being a spy is a pretty serious business and frankly its a huge matter of trust... *thinks a moment* who can we use? *strokes chin a moment thinking*

Daniel is around Brian... and the fact hes a fresh face would make him perfect to see whats going on... *turns to Lizzy Davenport* You lied about the pie? Thats cruel and unusual punishment for a jailed man...*turns back to Brian* original loyal spy? *thinks a moment* Who did you have in mind?

*puts hands up* Okay okay okay! youre right... she probably said yes to distract me so I wouldnt be thinking of ways to break Chet into a thousand pieces once we get out of here...Who can we trust? ...*thinks a moment running hand over mouth then grins* AHA!! I know who we can use!! Daniel!!

*shrugs* well hey its not every woman who can shoot and cuff! I consider it a big talent... *watching as Brian paces* A month? Nah you wont be subjected to this for a month, we might have dinner a lot sooner than that!

*the reaction to the words snap the vision of dinner with MaryAnne, eyes widen at the spewing coffee and the exclamation* Brian, geez whats the matter with you? You dont think MaryAnne would like that?

*Scoffs* like Id have doe eyes for you... *chuckles sitting on the bed* hey its not my fault you offered the moon for your bail! *watching the black clad man drinking his coffee* I just thought that since you know your cousin best youd help me... *Still watching thinking a moment...* I can see us at dinner and what if I say... I think you're amazing, youve got so many talents, brains, beauty, and a deep knowledge of firearms! Watching you hold your gun does something to me...

*grins and shrugs his shoulders* just....sweet talk her in general! Shes willing to have dinner with me! *still grinning at the fact MaryAnne said yes, then watches Brian with the coffee and takes a cautious step back* so are you going to help or not?

*makes a surprised noise at the tug and finds self face to face with obviously unhappy cellmate* So I take it this would be a bad time to ask you to help me sweet talk your cousin?

*wince at the swat and rubs the blond head* Oh yeah its been sooo easy offering and volunteering imprisonment to try and get your butt out of here... *grins again at MaryAnne's answer* Slimeball? Masher? Just because I want to take a lady to dinner?

*grins wider* All right deal! Anyplace or wherever, just name it!

*gives a grin walking up to the bars, uncrossing arms* Ohhh Ive got an idea... a more personal offer like dinner, soft music, candlelight....

*listens to the bail and nods then eyes flick to MaryAnne* Im sure thatd be fitting for him but what about me?

*Crosses arms over chest nodding in agreement about the stalling, also waiting for MaryAnne to make up her mind*

Whoa! Brian!!! *reaches around and tries to pry enraged man off the bars, but its like wrestling a grizzly bear* Hes not worth you hurting yourself trying to squeeze through steel bars! *Finally gives a strong tug and pries Brian off of the bars and pulls him all the way back til own back is to the wall* When we get out of here, hes going to remember who we both are! That I can promise you!

*stands up and goes to stricken cellmate and reaches out patting the back* steady now... deep breaths... *reaches into inner pocket to take out flask* here....

*scoffs* of course he doesnt deserve to! He can barely spell Lord of the Outlaws let alone take the title.. *crosses arms over chest glancing up at Brian*

*looks up at Brian* Think of it like this man, if she lets Chet be Lord of the Outlaws and he messes up the town... *grins spreading his arms* neither one of us can be blamed!

*sighs at the shove inside, then turns to see cellmate and sits down on the opposite bunk, leaning over covering face with hands* Yeah for my own good... *says then leans back against the bars*

*gaze still locked, leans face closer, closing the distance between the two...* If thats what you want me to do...Ill do it... *whispers the answer*

*still meeting the blue eyes of MaryAnne, not listening to anyone else and their comments, focus is solely on her, swallows hard at the touch along the leather jacket...* You know the answer to that MaryAnne... *says sincerely*

*maintains the locked gaze and swallows hard, giving a nod* you know I would...

*eyes locked with the blue eyes of MaryAnne and gives a nod* yes...anything...

*gives a little grin, gaze bouncing to both Coltranes, the gaze lands on MaryAnne and the smile fades* Youre right Id be suspect number one....but to me itd be bigger treason to take that title from Brian when you know that him behind bars wont be a permanent thing...*eyes still locked on MaryAnne* Id do anything for you to not take his title from him....*says softly, tone sincere* anything....
