Letting him go
By the end of it, they had no choice but to let the man go, they had nothing on him. It was embarrassing for them, they had to stand there and listen to the man yell at them and hurl insults because they took his car apart. They couldn’t do anything about it.
Ramirez knew that something was wrong here, but they didn’t find anything on the man or inside his car. Rick still smelt like there was something inside the vehicle, but they had no choice but to let him go for zero evidence. This hurt Rick’s reputation and was the first blow the duo received.
