"Pits and Peaks" is the fifth episode of Mike Tyson Mysteries season four, and the fifty-fifth overall. It aired on July 14, 2019 on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim block. It was written by Hugh Davidson, Larry Dorf, and Rachel Ramras, and produced and directed by Jeff Siergey.
Marquess finds out his bank account in Scotland has built up to five million dollars, but needs a living relative to access it.
Detailed summary
The team is relaxing over the weekend, which Mike thinks he coined the term for. Meanwhile, Deezy is looking at the Nevada State Treasurer's Office's website for any unclaimed funds. He discovers that Mike has nineteen hundred and eighty-one dollars coming to him, which he wants to put in Yung's name. Deezy then looks up Marquess's name to discover that he has three million, four hundred and twenty pounds (which converted is almost five million dollars) being held at the Royal Bank of Scotland. The team flies to Scotland to pick up his money, even though there was a woman on life support who needed their help.
In Scotland, Marquess finds out that he can't claim the money because he's been classified as deceased, but Ian Douglas, his great-great-great-great-grandson can. Marquess finds him at a fish factory in Glasgow, where he talks Ian into helping him out. They make a pitstop at Ian's flat where his family lives in squalor, and Ian has to take a nightshift at a hospital removing rectums from cadavers. Yung convinces Marquess to split the money, to which he begrudgingly agrees.
When Ian hears this Marquess will be sharing two and a half million dollars, he's so happy that he heads back to the fish factory to tell them that he plans on sharing the wealth with all of his fellow workers. He gets everyone to cheer for Marquess, who's more interested in just getting to the bank before it closes. As Marquess tries to get Ian moving, Ian accidentally slips over some fish guts and into the machine which creates a bloody mess all over the team, who are shocked and horrified. Except for Pigeon who's finds it to be the peak of his day, following the pit of his day being accidentally almost cooked alive by Mike.
Memorable quotes
Mike: See, this is why you put in all that hard work during the week, to get to the end of the week. Or as I sometimes call it, the "weekend." What do you guys call it?
Marquess: I call it the weekend.
Mike: Shut up!
Marquess: No, Michael, I think everyone calls it the weekend.
Mike: I just said shut up. Now, shut the fuck up! You're ruining my weekend with all your jibber-jabber. Weekdays are for jibber-jabber, weekends are for... Wait, what are they for, Marquess?
Marquess: Uh... Rest and relaxation?
Mike: Yeah, that's right. Rest and relaxation. I love hearing you talk, Marquess. It relaxes me. Put me in that weekend state of mind.
Mike: Marquess, what's your last name?
Marquess: Well, for starters, "Marquess" isn't my first name. As I have said on numerous occasions, my name is John Douglas. My title is "Marquess of Queensberry." And because "Marquess" sounds like "Marcus," and because you are all monstrously ignorant and lazy, you call me "Marquess." And because I don't give a shit anymore, I respond.
Pigeon: Yung, now be honest. You're a lesbian aren't you?
Yung: It's none of your business. Okay? And I don't believe in labels.
Pigeon: Well, I do, sister. So, what's your poison? The penis or the vagina?
Yung: Well, if anything, I identify as pan.
Pigeon: Wait, What? Mike, did you know this? Did you know that your daughter is pan?
Mike: Like a pan? A frying pan? Like her face is like a frying pan? Yeah, of course I know that. When she was little, I used to call her "Frying Pan Fran." You remember that, Yung?
Yung: Yeah.
