‘Franklin & Bash’ Recap: Sh-t Was Weak, Bro

CASE #1 – Weird Superhero Faker Bro

So this was the big case that they spent most of the episode on and it was about a dude who was all “I AM A SUPERHERO” but it was just the guy from Rudy in a cape being all weird. He chased some criminal guy onto a roof and was like “FREEZE” and the bad guy was all “SUCK IT” so he was like “HI-YAA” and did some karate move and the criminal fell off the roof to his death so now Rudy is being charged with manslaughter or whatever and Hot DA who Bash used to bone is prosecuting him. The twist is that Rudy isn’t really a superhero he’s just a dude in a costume who doesn’t have any powers. Anyway so Franklin and Bash call him as a witness and are all “You’re just like a neighborhood watch bro” and he’s like “Yup” but then Hot DA cross examines him and is all “You are a dangerous vigilante with no respect for the law” so Franklin’s like “OBJECTION SHE’S BEING A TOTAL BITCH” but the damage was already done.

Things weren’t actually looking that bad because whatever it’s just manslaughter so Franklin and Bash got this BUT THEN Hot DA found a tape where Rudy was arguing with the criminal earlier so he had MOTIVE so she’s like “I want to charge him with murder now” and Franklin’s all “Ugh, she’s being a bitch again, Your Honor” but the judge thinks about it and goes “I will allow it because of the law” so BOOM MURDER TRIAL. So now things are looking bad and oh yeah I almost forgot earlier in the episode Sexy Investigator Lady went to the building where the fight happened and knocked on a dude’s door and the dude was a stoner so he was all “Whoa, dude, I am blazed” but it turned out he heard a thump on the roof so everybody was like “Hmm, what was that thump?” and so later they start snooping around and they find some of Rudy’s cape on another roof so they’re all “OK this is interesting.”

Then they ask Rudy about why his cape was on a different roof but he sticks to his story about saving the day so they call him as a witness again and go “Be honest, bro. You didn’t save the day. You were scared of the criminal bro so you jumped to the other roof to get away and he tried to jump after you but he fell and died” and Rudy was all “Wah wah yes I just wanted all my fake superhero buddies and also society in general to think I was brave boo hoo” so with this new evidence Hot DA drops the charges.

So basically Rudy is innocent because he was a total pussy. Weak sauce, bros.
