Big Sky (2020) s02e10 Episode Script

1 Previously on "Big Sky" Son of a bitch! Someone was looking for me.
Someone like Ronald Pergman? That RV it's been sitting there for a while.
Registered to a guy, reported stolen from a gas station.
Let's pull the gas station surveillance video.
What do you want me to do with this guy? Kill him.
- Is there a dead man in there? - Nope.
You're a traitor.
Huh? It's not what you think, man! It's not what you think! - We need your help.
- We did something wrong.
"I would like my money, pretty please, - with sugar on top.
" - I don't have your money.
You got 24 hours.
We're looking for Bridger Ryan.
I don't know who that is.
- I messed up so bad.
- We'll take care of this.
I hope you're gonna do what we discussed.
I don't know the correct dose.
A killing dose.
You are an unfit mother! Aah! No! We're getting out of here.
Okay.
Be right back in two shakes of a lamb's tail.
Don't leave me with him.
It's okay.
I'll protect you.
Ew.
Phoebe We're going to Alaska when this is all over.
What if I don't want to go to Alaska? Then you'll miss out on all the fun.
We're going to live in a cabin.
Going to be paradise.
That doesn't sound like paradise.
Arthur has a plan for us.
Okay? We just need to make sure he gets better.
Stop calling him that.
I know his name his real name.
I'm sorry that I lied to you.
It won't happen again.
I promise.
Honey, I know.
Why don't you watch one of your videos? That's a good idea.
And I will be right back.
Do you wanna sing a song? No.
Why would I want to sing a song? The wheels on the bus go round and round Round and round I don't think that would work.
Well, I'm gonna protect you and your mother, Phoebe.
I don't think so.
You're going to die.
I had a dream about it.
None of my dreams ever came true.
My mother always said it's a sin to talk about your dreams.
She called them "dirty movies.
" Rising body count and no one behind bars.
You can imagine the kind of political pressure I'm under.
These kids are at the center of everything.
Their testimony gets me close to an arrest.
Bridger Ryan was a student here.
He was with Gary Klevorn at the time of the murder.
And Bridger gave the initial description that matches Ren Bhullar's brother, Jag.
Oh, well, that's just great.
Now we got two Bhullars in town.
Why haven't you brought him in? We need to get eyes on him.
You, wait? Since when? Ha ha.
So the cartel did come looking for their drugs and money.
If we want these bodies to stop dropping, I think this T-Lock is the key.
Let's hope you're right.
Thanks for sitting down with us again.
Max is just trying to do the right thing.
And what about you? You told me T-Lock found the drugs.
That was a lie.
I was protecting my daughter.
Or maybe you were trying to cover for your boyfriend.
When was the last time you talked to him? Has he reached out to you? - No.
I - My mom's telling the truth.
Look, Max, I know you mean well, but you don't understand how many people got hurt 'cause of your actions.
I do.
I know.
I know, and I'm sorry.
I wish I could just take it back and do it over again.
T-Lock taking that money is a serious problem, and the cartel is not gonna stop until they find him.
Did they shoot Bridger's karate instructor? These are not the sort of people you want to mess with.
Hey.
Hey, don't worry.
I'm gonna do everything I can to try to keep you safe.
What do you think? I think they're scared, as they should be.
Let's get a unit on them, 24/7.
I already looked into it.
Tubb says we don't have the resources scraping butter on too much bread.
Are those his words or yours? I added the last part.
"Scraping butter on too much bread" that sounds pretty good.
Okay, well, let's get a drive-by going, at least.
Hey, what's the holdup on that stolen RV? The surveillance footage.
I'm pushing, - but they've got this whole protocol - Well, just keep pushing.
Cassie deserves answers.
Hoyt, just because someone stole an RV - doesn't mean they killed somebody.
- Doesn't mean they didn't.
Just chase them down.
Hoyt Dispatch.
This is Deputy Poppernak.
We're on it.
What's up? Jag Bhullar.
Lock it in.
Okay.
Let's say you were right and Ronald killed my father.
Whoa.
That's not exactly what I said.
- You implied it.
- Okay, but, to be clear, I-I told you I can't shake the feeling that Wolf Legarski is connected to Ronald somehow.
That's it? What I mean is, maybe he really knows where Ronald is or is helping him.
What about the cereal thing? Well, yeah, okay, there's that, too, but none of it matters.
Even if Wolf is helping Ronald or working with him, why would Ronald risk so much to kill your father? Wolf's ranch.
Where is it? Cassie, there's no way I'm letting you go there alone.
Okay.
Then we go together.
Have a good night's sleep? Bob here is feeling generous.
He, uh, brought you a last meal.
Let me out of here.
You're never getting out.
I-I can get you your money back.
D, I can help you.
Shoot him in the gut.
Let him bleed out.
- My pleasure.
- Listen, I I-I can help you restart your entire operation, D.
- Do it.
- Whoa, okay.
Dietrich, you got this all wrong.
I'm a cop.
D! Okay? I'm a cop.
Well, he's lying.
I'm not I'm not after you, okay? I'm after the Bhullars.
Come on.
Let's kill this soft son of a bitch.
They're They're gonna wipe you out.
And maybe I can help you get them first, hmm? We don't need your help.
You could be the only game in town! 'Cause you said it yourself! Come on! I'm the only shot that you got.
Ugh.
So much natural light.
Tonya, I love it.
Luckily, the guy who was gonna buy it died.
Donno.
Have some respect for the dead.
Sorry.
Tonya, ever heard of 4-ANPP? No.
My family imports it in bulk from Delhi.
They truck it to a plant in Brampton, and poof out comes 40 kilos of synthetic fentanyl.
Only problem is that we've had some trouble getting it into the States.
Here? You wanna manufacture here? Local hub for the entire Mountain West.
I even hired a chemist.
Med student, good Indian family, living out his parents' dreams at U of M.
We just got to figure out shipping.
I need safe and secure transport.
I think I might know some people.
- What would we do without Tonya, hmm? - Mm.
Let me see what I can do.
Where's she headed off to? None of your beeswax.
Dhruv, Donno, give us the room.
I already told you, we are not setting up shop here.
It's a bad idea.
Okay.
Well, why don't I call Dad, walk him through the numbers, see what he thinks? Wouldn't do that.
Why? You afraid it's a good idea? You need to learn to stay in your lane.
I don't work for you.
I work for Dad.
Same as you.
So don't talk to me about lanes.
No, it's not the same.
Know your place.
Helena Sheriff's Department! Easy, boys.
Told you I'd see you again.
I'm here for these two.
We're gonna have a little chat down at the station.
Let's go.
Aah! - Were you careful? - Yes.
Always.
Let me see.
It's bad, isn't it? I'm gonna make it better.
I promise.
Then we leave for Alaska? You want that, don't you? Us, together as a family.
Our little home at the end of the world.
Safe and happy.
I do.
I'm gonna go get some supplies.
Okay.
Phoebe, come on.
Manager to aisle 3.
Manager to aisle 3.
Pharmacy, pick up 2.
Pharmacy, pick up line 2.
Why are you helping Ronald? Because we're a family.
Ooh, look what I found.
New red barrettes.
I don't want a red barrette.
I wanna go home! Well, that's exactly what we're doing, Phoebe.
We're helping Ronald so we can all go home, right? Wait, miss, I need to see what's in your bag.
Is there something wrong? Bag, please.
Mom.
It's okay, honey.
I'm just talking to this nice man.
I need to see what's in that bag.
Sure.
Yeah.
Andy.
Andy that's a strong name for a strong man.
Okay.
If you don't let me go, I'm gonna scream or stab you in the balls.
I haven't really decided yet.
You're crazy.
But I really, really need those things, Andy.
Okay? Now be a good boy.
My mistake.
- Have a nice day, ma'am.
- Mm.
Thank you.
Come on, Phoebe.
Phoebe.
Come on, honey.
Come on.
This has been fun and all, but you don't have anything that could keep me here.
In fact, I'm doing you a favor.
I can walk my handsome self out of here whenever I want.
The only place you're going to is prison.
It's just a matter of how long.
You cooperate, answer a few questions, maybe we can knock off a decade, even two.
Ah.
Ah.
Lawyer.
We have a witness that puts you at the dojo.
Lawyer.
How does it work? Do you take orders from your father? L-A-W-Y-E-R.
Or does your sister tell you what to do? Do you kill for her, Jag? Are you her little B-I-T-C-H? Lawyer, please.
He didn't give you much.
Nothing except that cocky smile.
He does have great hair.
Uh, what are you talking about? Profiling.
Men with great hair have an overabundance of confidence, which can be used against them.
Also, his posture I don't like it.
- Let's go check on our witness.
- Yeah.
I need you to find me drivers who can ship across state lines.
What's the cargo? Remember what I said about no questions? If I don't know what's in the box, then I ain't drivin' it.
You just find me the drivers, and I'll get you some answers.
It don't work like that, Ton.
Well, Bryce, the people I work for don't like questions.
Matter of fact, they chop people up who ask questions.
Uh, okay.
No.
No, no, no, no, no.
I'm out, then.
No, you're not.
You'll be well compensated.
Drive your truck.
Shut your mouth.
Be on time.
Now, do we have a deal? Sounds like I ain't got a choice.
You're right.
You don't.
I'll be in touch.
Housekeeping.
Are you okay? - Go away.
- I can call an ambulance.
Aah! Aah! Help! Aggie? Oh.
How are you, Bridger? Holding up okay? Yeah.
And your sister? Yeah, she's fine.
We brought in the men who killed your karate instructor.
We just need you to confirm their identity.
Are these the two who were at your dojo? The ones who killed Gary and tried to get to you? Uh, no.
Those aren't them.
Those aren't the guys.
What? Yeah.
Never seen them before in my life.
Hope you got everything you needed.
Bridger, what really happened? - Excuse me.
- Did the cartel come here and threaten you? Uh N-No, I I was mistaken about my last statement.
Um It was hard to tell exactly what happened.
Bridger, I need you to tell me the truth.
An innocent man was murdered.
Hey, we're done here.
You have his statement.
He didn't see anything.
No one here is on trial.
We gave you our statements.
Honey, go to your room.
After you.
You going somewhere? Thanks so much for stopping by.
Look, Bridger, we can protect you.
- You just have to trust us.
- You have our numbers.
Call me directly from here on out.
They got to the family, made Bridger change his statement.
Can we prove that? Of course not.
Damn it, we needed that witness! What about T-Lock? Anything? Not yet.
How about your friend Travis? What about him? Maybe he could help.
You know he's undercover.
I don't want to put him in any more risk.
Jenny, right now, we got nothing.
I'd say it's worth that risk.
Call you later.
A "thank you" would be nice.
What are you talking about? I got to that kid Bridger's parents.
The lawyers fixed it for you.
Thanks, Ren.
You're always looking out for me.
Okay.
We're not doing some sort of group hug.
What's next? You gonna tell Dad? Depends.
You trash my idea to move operations here? I won't have to.
It's a bad idea.
Kinda like shooting up a dojo? I knew you were unhinged and lazy, but straight-up stupid? Name-calling.
Well, that's productive.
Look, Dad wanted the money.
We do what Dad wants.
Yeah.
Kinda done with that.
What are you saying? You'll see.
Ren.
Ren! What the hell is that supposed to mean? What day are we talking about again? The day an RV was stolen from here.
Or does that happen a lot? You'd be surprised.
Whoa.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Stop, stop, stop, stop.
Whoa.
Holy moly, mother of mackerel.
We got ya.
Where's Ren? Gone.
You know my sister always up to something.
How about you? Productive day? You could say so.
You want some Scotch? It's a 12-year-old single malt.
No, thank you.
I actually don't drink.
I'm five years sober.
Mm.
I admire that.
Especially since we're gonna be in business together.
My sister thinks highly of you, and I can see why.
She's told me so much about you.
I can only imagine.
Um, handsome, charming, et cetera? I'm kidding.
I know exactly what my sister thinks of me.
Brothers and sisters.
It's complicated, you know.
Yeah.
I have a sister who's difficult.
See? You get it.
Ren also told me about the ranch how you not only found it but even helped her close it.
- That's right.
- That is impressive.
Especially in this market.
You must be some sort of real-estate whiz.
I wouldn't say that, but it helps to have a local.
But why a ranch? She has her plans.
I think.
Or a plan.
I think you should talk to her about it.
Loyalty.
I admire that.
But here's the thing, Tonya.
We are on the same team.
And I can only help if you open up to me, Tonya.
So why don't you walk me through the plan? Mom? This car belonged to Wolf.
Right? And Wolf was a mean, mean man.
And this was his.
We're not mean like Wolf, are we, Phoebe? That's right.
Okay.
Stay in the car.
What's the matter? Just stay in the car for a minute, okay? Okay, Sweetie.
So, there's been a change of plans.
We're not gonna stay here, because this place, it doesn't have a pool, it doesn't have pancakes or french toast for breakfast, so Okay.
Um, I'm gonna need you to be a good girl, and I need you to sit down, okay? Just Just relax a minute.
Hi.
Okay.
- Mom? - What What is it, honey? Okay, Ronald Ronald, I need you to get up.
I need you to get up, okay? I need you to get up.
Okay.
Okay, baby, wait.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
You're okay.
- We got to get up.
- Okay.
Okay.
Honey, grab your backpack.
Come on, quick.
Open the door.
What? You look like hell.
Yeah, well, back-to-back all-nighters.
- I remember those.
- Mm.
Cheers.
Did you hear anything about Bridger Ryan? Right into business.
Okay.
The Bhullars got to him and his family.
He recanted.
I had to let Jag go.
That's what they do.
They wouldn't go after his family, would they? They will if they have to, yeah.
But let's hope it doesn't come to that, right? I got nothing on Jag Bhullar without Bridger's statement.
That money ever turn up? No.
Where are you at with it? A guy named T-Lock has it.
A local lowlife who's dating one of the kids' moms.
You know him? Nope.
Why? Just wondering.
Uh, can we can we, um I'm sorry.
Can we talk about something other than work? Please.
Please.
I have an idea.
- Oh, yeah? - Mm-hmm.
I have an idea, too.
You're coming with me.
Oh, yeah? W-What is this?! What? Did you tell Ren about this? - Nope.
- You sure? I know when to keep my mouth shut.
All right.
Well Go ahead.
I know you have thoughts.
She's not gonna like you going behind her back.
Maybe.
Then again, I don't really care.
What is it with you two, anyway? She would eat you alive, bro.
Don't even go there.
I respect her.
She's got skills.
Yeah, okay.
Well, next time you're simping, ask her about Billy.
Old boyfriend.
Dead boyfriend.
Ah! Get out of my shot.
Okay, come on, darling! Sat siri Akaal, uncle Ji.
Welcome to Montana, Dad.
Lucky you showed.
Oh, yeah? And why's that? Well, Bob lost our bet.
He was having doubts about our deal.
Said you wouldn't be back.
Really? Well, here I am.
What'd you lose? Chance to turn your piggy ass into kielbasa.
Careful now, Bobby boy.
See, you're getting all jittery.
You don't want to do that when you're this close to the prize.
Yeah, about that.
Taking down the Bhullars.
I want the old man Veer Bhullar.
Sounds personal.
Maybe.
Well, how 'bout you tell me where my money is first before we go tilting after Veer Bhullar? 5.
56 77 grain full metal jacket.
I am good up to 600 yards.
No need to get our hands dirty if you let me do what I do.
Yeah, this is not a gopher shoot, but Oh, I see you like it up close and personal, huh? Okay, we're getting sidetracked.
My money? T-Lock has it.
- Oh, that's funny.
- Yeah? Yeah, considering that was the guy you were supposed to kill.
It's ironic.
Mm.
Don't suppose you know where he is.
No.
I'm gonna let you figure that out, D.
I, uh, can't wait to show you both around.
It's a really lovely time of year.
Ah, gorgeous.
The mountains? You know, I really want to see a buffalo or bison.
Do you say both? Bison.
Better.
Puttar, I'm not a tourist here.
You called.
Here I am.
Yeah.
I heard about your run-in with the police.
Oh.
You, uh You heard about that? Yeah.
Anything you need to tell me? Eh, it's nothing to worry about.
Well, then why am I worried? How's my Reenu? She's fine.
You watching out for her? Yes.
- Don't lie to me.
- I'm not I'm trying, Dad, but it's hard.
Ren mushkil bun di ah.
What did he just say? He said that Reenu is being difficult.
That's a surprise.
She is your sister.
End of story.
Yes, I understand.
- Do you? - Yes.
Is there a good spa around here? Oh, yes, Veery, we should get that couples' massage.
I'll have someone arrange it.
Okay.
So you were saying about Reenu? She doesn't want my advice or yours.
So So nothing has changed.
But But the good news is, you know, I have a plan.
Well, there's a first time for everything.
Right, Dhruv? No, no, tell us.
Tell us What is your "plan"? - I can tell you about it later.
- No, no, we'd like to hear it now.
Here? Alicia, why don't you listen to your book on tape? I finished it.
Put on your Alanis.
Oh.
Do you guys like Alanis Morissette? "Jagged Little Pill"? Best album ever.
- I mess with Alanis.
- Alicia, honey, honestly, it doesn't matter what they like, so, please, just for my son's sake.
We We have business to discuss.
Of course, dear.
- You happy? - Yeah.
Go on.
Okay, well, it's, uh, radical, it's innovative, it's not without risk, - but, uh I feel like - Dhruv, does he have a plan or not? I have a plan! Why Okay.
I'm gonna make a long story short we build a manufacturing and distribution hub right here in Helena.
It's gonna serve the Mountain Northwest.
We decentralize our operations.
In one move, we avoid all border patrol.
Law enforcement here is a joke.
Land is cheap.
So all we have to do is hire a chemist and harness a transportation network.
We got to expand, Dad.
I think there's merit here.
Yes, it's very good, Jagat.
Very good.
I tried reaching Bridger Ryan again, but the entire family's gone.
Well, can't blame them.
Well, without Bridger, we got nothing on the cartel.
And what if they threaten the other kids? Sorry to interrupt.
I got something you're gonna want to see.
I chased down that surveillance footage - from the gas station.
- And? - Oh, my God.
- Is that who I think it is? - Ronald Pergman.
- I'll issue an APB.
I got to get ahold of Cassie.
- I'll check in with you in a bit.
- Okay.
Yeah, Dispatch, put an APB on Ronald Pergman.
Are you sure about that? Yeah, I'm just, uh, telling you what Jenny told me.
It was Ronald in a stolen RV right next to our office.
I think you should call her.
She really wants to talk to you.
Uh, I'm I'm with Lindor right now.
We're just looking into something.
- Okay, but are - I'll talk to you later.
There's no doubt it was Ronald.
This isn't gonna be a friendly visit.
The last time I was here, he made it clear I wasn't welcome.
Okay.
Let's do this.
Something happened here.
All his animals are gone.
There's nobody here.
That's a weird bunch of items to keep together.
In his book, Wolf mentioned having a "rewards table" to train a The cereal.
Company, it seems, always arrives when you have the most cleaning to do.
Where's Ronald Pergman? We know he was here.
How? Damn Cocoa Chunks.
Where is he? - Gone.
- No, where is he? If you want my help finding him, you can start by lowering your weapons.
Mom.
Mom? Mom, are you in here? No.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Can you file that for me? Well, they put out the info.
Hopefully something pops.
Hey, Max.
What's going on? Please! Please, you have to help me! Some Something bad happened to my mom! - Wait.
What happened? - Something happened to my mom! I don't Max?
