Episode Title:
Archer Dreamland: No Good Deed.
Episode Description:
Archer is in a coma as a result of the gunshot wounds he sustained from Veronica Deane. While in the coma, he dreams he is a private-eye set on finding justice for his murdered partner Woodhouse, following his comatose self unconsciously hearing from Malory Archer of Woodhouse's death. Archer butts heads with detectives Figgis and Poovey (who is a man in Archer's dream, though he still retains Poovey's female face, makeup and voice). Archer interrogates Woodhouse’s dealer Krieger, a bartender at a club owned by the crime boss known as Mother. Impressed with his experience in the war, Mother agrees to help Archer find Woodhouse’s killer but, in exchange he must get information on Len Trexler, the biggest mob boss in town. While spying on Trexler’s second in command Dutch Dylan, Archer runs into Poovey and together they clumsily stop Trexler’s sex trade scheme. Poovey is sent to help find jobs for all the abducted women, while Archer returns to his office only to find that it has been ransacked and Woodhouse’s envelope of clues has been stolen. Charlotte VanderTunt enters, and hires Archer to murder her.
