In this episode of Movie Gumshoes, Jared and Jonathan investigate Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves starring Chris Pine, zeroing in on Edgin’s tragic mistake of stealing cursed gold from the Red Wizards, a decision that ultimately cost him his family. As they dig deeper, they’re sidetracked by the bizarre late-added cameo from Bradley Cooper, filmed after production wrapped, which Jared treats like a “patch job” not unlike the excuses cops make when they bend the rules. That spirals into a moral dilemma back at the precinct, where loose cash from drug busts tempts Jonathan to justify skimming a little off the top, only for Jared to draw a hard parallel: cursed gold or dirty money, it all carries consequences, and once you take it, it takes something from you in return.
