Old Wounds

1 [DOGS BARKING.]
Escaped prisoner David Slaney is still at large having escaped from Dorchester Penitentiary a few short hours ago.
Five years ago, Slaney went down and Hearn, he disappeared.
We're gonna have to put the past behind us.
- Stop! Don't hurt him! - [GUNSHOT.]
So no one else knows what we're doing.
There's no other way.
There's an actual manhunt for me! Wake up.
- [BUZZING.]
- [INDISTINCT INTERCOM MESSAGE.]
Remember me? I was there when your pal Hearn got away leaving you holding the bag.
Oh, I remember you.
You're that cop that was so drunk at the trial that you threw up over all the evidence.
[LAUGHING.]
What do you want from me? Well, I want what I know you want, David.
Can I call you David? Hearn's out there living it up, building an empire.
- You're in here.
- Look, you really think you're the first asshole to come in here and try this routine? You should look at your face.
I know Tommy Gabriel's guys been beating the piss out of you.
Tommy wants you to give him Hearn.
So you should ask yourself this question next time those guys are pounding you to within an inch of your life would Hearn hold out for you or would he just give you up? I don't even know where he is.
Maybe that's true.
I'll be honest, I almost believe you, but I know you can get in touch with him, which means that you and me [ROY COUGHING.]
you and me could find him.
[CONTINUOUS HONK NOISE.]

- It helps me think.
- What are you doing here? - Your pal Murrin called me, told me about the accident.
- Mm-hmm.
- So the plan was for Slaney to lead you to Hearn? - Mm-hmm.
- Without him knowing? But you picked him up, why? He was being chased by some hillbillies for a reward.
When I see he waved me down, I just I had to stop.
He thought I was one of them; he tried to jump out of the car.
He thought you were a hillbilly? Mm-hmm.
Get dressed, let's get to work.
"Let's" as in like us or together? Because you made it [PATTERSON GROANING.]
you made it pretty clear that you didn't want any part of this.
I did, but I changed my mind.
You still want my help? - Mhm.
- I took a week's sick leave, so I'm all yours, 'til you piss me off.
All right then.
[PHONE RINGING.]
- Lefevre.
- Hi.
How do you think I can help you? - Give me 500K.
- [LEFEVRE COUGHING, LAUGHING.]
500! Yeah, no, sure, I'll send that right along with a load of my ass you can kiss.
What? You don't like opportunity all of a sudden? - You've invested before.
- From what I hear, you got like a row of feds lined up bobbing for your head like an apple, so yeah, I'm gonna send you 500,000.
You let me worry about that.
Look, I wouldn't come to you if this was a risk.
It's a sure thing.
What is in it for me exactement? Six points.
Well, twenty points and maybe we can talk.
Look I know you got this granddaughter, and you wanna leave something for her.
Sorry to say, Lefevre, this might be your last chance.
You leave my granddaughter out of this.
You can't get the money together, I'll just go to someone else.
Screw you, I can get it together.
I said I can get it together.
It's what I like to hear.
My guy will be there to pick it up soon.
But he's gonna need a passport like the one that you gave me.
Just make sure the money's ready.
[GRUNTING.]
[WOMAN.]
: You're sure you're OK there, darlin'? You don't look so good.
I'm fine.
I just had a little car accident.
Nothing a nap won't fix.
TV gets the two channels.
Shower works.
Don't flush anything big down the toilet.
Plumbing seems to resist everything we throw in it.
[TV.]

- [TURNS OFF TV.]
- [DOOR CLOSING.]
[SQUEAKY DOOR OPENING.]
How long have you been sober? What? You think I didn't look into you before I came here? Two years, three months, sixteen days.
What else did you dig up on me? Hmm You've been riding a desk for the last few years.
From what I can tell, you haven't been doing much real police work.
And you were point on the Slaney-Hearn case five years ago.
I let Hearn get away, it's all true.
What happened? I was distracted.
I wasn't there.
I blew it.
[PHONE RINGING.]
Roy Patterson.
Yeah.
OK, good.
Good work.
Murrin tracked Slaney to a hotel out on Highway 2.
Owner called it in.
[INDISTINCT POP SONG PLAYING.]
They're looked after.
Yeah, well nothing says I love you like alimony and child support.
Yeah Well, I'm, um I thought you were a dentist with a house on the beach.
I mean, we are on the beach, and and I was a dentist.
But living like this is just so much more fun.
Is what you're doing gonna land us in a Mexican jail? 'Cause I hear those are tons of fun.
What? I-I know.
I would have to be an idiot not to know.
Because you see, the problem being with you, even just looking at you, you I can't explain the way it makes me feel.
I can't explain the way you make me feel.
We both tend to You know, we explain too much sometimes, don't you think? - [WOMAN LAUGHING.]
- OK.
I am in control of absolutely everything no matter what goes on around us.
OK.
Well, I don't like your buddy Hearn.
He's all bark.
Hearn? You think I'm afraid of Hearn? - [WOMAN CHUCKLING.]
- I can handle Hearn.
Don't worry, baby.
[SOFT MUSIC.]
[WOMAN GASPING AND LAUGHING.]
Oh, gee! Do you mind?! Lefevre is gonna give us the money.
Slaney is gonna pick it up.
And Hugo's close to a deal with his people.
Uh OK.
I know how many you sling.
I need your former self.
OK.
[WOMAN.]
: I love you.
[SLANEY.]
: I love you too.
[SIRENS BLARING.]
You guys, go in there! Ugh! They said the manager is on this floor, I'm gonna find her.
All right, I'll take the second.
[SIRENS BLARING.]
[INDISTINCT POLICE RADIO.]
[MAN TALKING INDISTINCTLY.]
- Just tell us what you saw.
- Yeah, uh Master key.
Slaney's in 213.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
[TENSE MUSIC.]
Hi.
I don't want Paul to see the dress before I'm at the altar, obviously.
Is he around? Can you help me with this? Sure, I just I'm gonna need some more light.
[ROCK SONG FUNK 49.]
[BY JAMES GANG.]
- Better help me with the dress.
- I sleep all day - Out all night - Don't tug on it and tear it.
- Just a slight pull.
- I know where you're going I don't think that's acting right You're gonna think it's showing - You're all set.
- Thank you.
- [KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
- Ma'am, it's the police! Open up! In here.
Left in a hurry.
- You're still there, Ma'am? - You're that guy, right? We both know what's on the other side of that door and what happens next.
I'm dropping out - [MAN.]
: Ma'am? - Just a second.
I'm getting dressed.
Don't misunderstand me You don't think I don't know your plan What you trying to hand me [SIREN BLARING.]
I'm guessing these photos are about your daughter.
She's still missing? [COUGHING.]
My wife my ex-wife she likes to stay on top of it hoping for or not, I don't know accident.
I don't know anymore.
Is that what this is about? Think getting Hearn will make up for it? I'm not an idiot.
I just wanna nail him so I can have a decent night's sleep for once.
Jennifer Baker's a single mom.
Slaney's not the father correct? No, he isn't, but he wrote to her every month while he was inside, and all those letters were returned unopened.
And I had them all pulled from the prison about a year ago.
Went through them all, it's a dead-end.
She lives in Newfoundland, and Slaney's never going back there.
What's this? The letter from the hotel.
- She moved.
- She moved.
You pine for a girl in prison, write her every month, not one reply.
She finally tells you she never wants to see you again, - what are you gonna do? - Well, oh, my God, I'd do the opposite.
I'd go right to her.
How far is the drive to Montreal? Are you driving or am I? [HONKING.]
[RAILROAD CROSSING BELL RINGING.]
[DIAL TONE.]
[COIN CLINKING.]
[PHONE RINGING.]
Took you long enough to get there.
Being an escaped con tends to slow things down a little.
If you're in a hurry, maybe you should have got someone else.
Relax.
I didn't make you bust out of jail, Slaney.
No, you just got me sent there in the first place.
1017, Morisette.
[SPANISH SONG PLAYING.]
And, uh, count the 500.
Lefevre, he's harmless but slippery.
You sent me to Montreal to pick up that much cash without any protection or a plan to get me out of here? [HEARN CHUCKLING.]
Uh, I have a plan.
Don't start acting like I should trust you all of a sudden.
You're still a pain in the ass, you know that? Tommy Gabriel and his brothers are gonna know that I'm out.
They're gonna be looking for me.
OK.
So then, you get the money and you get out as soon as possible, all right? No detours.
Alright? Ah, you're kidding me.
You're kidding me! How did you know she was in Montreal, man? Just watch yourself.
She wrote me.
Jennifer Hahaha! After all these years, you gotta be kidding me.
That funny to you? Haha! What? Wait, you don't know? Ah, Slaney, man, you're serious? Ah, ah I'm sorry, man.
- What? - Uh Oh, pal, I'm sorry.
She's married.
Yeah, a couple of months back.
I I figured somebody would have told you.
I'm sorry.
But, uh Hey, she's gone, man.
You're just gonna have to forget about her, move on, right? Slaney? Slaney, you go to her, you could blow this whole deal.
The days you tell me what I can and can't do are over.
Don't be a stubborn son of a bitch, you I'll call you tomorrow.
[GROANING.]
I trust you more than anybody in the world, man.
I got your back; you got mine.
We could build something big here.
- Something like what? - Haha! Ha! - Like a weed empire, man! - [BOTH LAUGHING.]
You know, meet a couple of girls, swimming pools, big houses.
[WOMAN TALKING INDISTINCTLY.]
[WOMAN.]
: No, you can't have it, you're too little.
Ahem! Well, look who it is.
Jennifer Baker.
The Slane? Oh, my God, it's good to see you! I haven't seen you since we were - In high school.
- Yeah.
[CHUCKLING.]
I asked you out, you said, "Maybe.
" And as I recall, you just up and moved away after that.
That was like three months later, but yeah, my dad, he got a job in Alberta.
Ah.
So, uh, my proposal wasn't the cause of your relocation? Believe it or not, no.
I wanted to ask you out since we were 9 years old.
You need to learn to move a little quicker.
Last I heard, you ended up with Jessica Shannahan, so looks like you got over me pretty quickly.
Oh, I never got over you.
[BABY COOING.]
Who's this little trout? That's Crystal.
Some eyes on you.
Like your mother.
You're looking for a wedding ring, you're not gonna find it.
- No, no, I was just - Her father, he's not in the picture, so - You - Whoo.
Oh, your ice cream.
What am I? After doing No, this is all your fault, - you were distracting me! - That was my big play: make you lose your ice cream so I could buy you another one.
Jennifer Juniper.
How are you? I'm good.
There you go.
We should, uh we should get the bus.
- It was really good seeing you.
- You too.
[JENNIFER.]
: On the monkey bars.
[JENNIFER TALKING INDISTINCTLY.]
We got him.
[JENNIFER LAUGHING.]
- [DOOR CLOSING.]
- I heard you on the phone.
Anyone ever tell you what happens to little girls - who eavesdrop? - Little girls? Man, you sure know how to talk to women.
- [ROCK MUSIC PLAYING.]
- Who's Slaney? He's the guy you and Carter have been talking about, right? What did I just say to you? - [LOUDER ROCK MUSIC PLAYING.]
- Hola.
Is that tooth still bothering you? - Uh-huh.
- 'Cause when I looked at it, I was like Oh, mio amore.
I think it's gotta come out.
What do you say? - Do it.
- Yeah, if I were you, I wouldn't be gentle.
He could use a jolt.
Do you think that maybe you could wait until you're finished before you get high? Oh, he's been high all day, why stop now? Open up.
Hmm! [CARTER SNIFFLING.]
Here.
I don't think this is gonna need stitches.
Ah! Ah.
- Ah! Argh! AH! - Oooh! - Oh, God! Dammit! Idiot! - [WOMAN LAUGHING.]
- Ah! - Just a little bit of blood.
You just have to Oh, God, man, let me I'm sorry about that, man.
I'm gonna go get some gauze.
Ada, would you clean him up? [GRUNTING.]
- It's rotten right through.
- That makes sense.
That girl in the photo, were you in love with her? Coke makes me chatty.
You know, Cyril said that he used to use teabags to numb the pain, but coke works way better.
I collect stories.
I want yours, so if I were you, I would just give in.
She was pretty.
Don't try that shit with me.
I'm not Carter.
I'm real.
You understand that? - Remember that.
- [KNOCKING.]
OK.
Let me take a look at it.
Let me take a look at it.
[WOMAN.]
: We saw him go in there, but are we sure - he's still inside? - He's still in there.
What are you thinking? I was thinking about your missing girl.
I was a runaway.
I was 14.
Took off to Detroit.
On my own.
You know I got my way into trouble.
Hmm.
Yeah, me with no discipline.
- Haha! - [SIREN BLARING.]
There was drugs, all that.
Anyways, I got busted on some bullshit thing.
It was a minor drug charge, and it felt like a major one.
The FBI used it.
They held it over me, flipped me.
After a while, I was recruited to DEA - full-fledged law enforcement.
- Whoa.
People sometimes they need to reinvent themselves for their own reasons.
[BUZZING.]
Just because she's gone from your life doesn't mean she isn't living.
That should give you hope.
Hope deserted me a long time ago.
I'm on foot.
[GUN COCKING.]
Well, well, well, if it isn't the convict of interest.
Hearn set this up so you could kill me? With friends like that He sends the most wanted man in Canada to pick up the money.
If you're not actually planning on shooting me, - would you mind not - Oh, yeah.
Sorry.
Ah, so [CHUCKLING.]
you bust out of the pen and you jump straight into the fire.
[SIGHING.]
Were you followed? - No.
- Yeah, like you would know.
The bad people in the city wanna see you and Hearn très dead.
I don't like me being here any more than you do, but I need that money.
You know, Tommy Gabriel is a much bigger deal than when you two ripped him off.
He and his brother moving a lot of shit for the Angels.
[LEFEVRE COUGHING AND GASPING.]
Emphysema? Yeah.
Yeah, I hear smoking's the cure.
You're just like my wife.
May she rest in peace.
- $500,000.
- Yeah.
Either give it to me or don't, it's up to you.
Get your picture taken, OK, in one of these photo booths.
You know the kind, right? And then you iron the picture on under the plastic under there.
The name in there is the one on the tombstone next to my wife's.
It's your name now.
Meet me in three hours at the gateway to Haven Cemetery, alright? You'll get your money then.
You were supposed to give me the money now.
Yeah, things change.
Hey, I can give you a pretty good deal on that.
They just fell off a truck this morning.
Got a full load out front.
Three hours.
Just be there with the money.
[CAR DOOR OPENING.]
Slaney's got a passport.
- What's with the doll? - Weird gift for Hearn.
Got a present for Jennifer's kid.
We gotta get surveillance up inside her apartment.
- How do you plan on doing that? - Oh, I'm not gonna do that, you're gonna do that.
[KNOCKING.]
Hi! Sorry, my husband, - he's at work right now.
- [PHONE RINGING.]
Can you hang on just one second? That thing has been ringing all morning.
Hello? Hi! [JENNIFER TALKING INDISTINCTLY ON THE PHONE.]
Whatchu doin'? Uh, just I have these books for you.
If your mommy agrees.
- Can I help you? - Hi! Yeah, I just was here to discuss this one's future.
She's quite the smart cookie.
Encyclopaedias, we can't.
We can't afford that right now.
Our prices are pretty competitive.
No thank you.
You should think about it.
Uh, Miss, your books.
Here, we gotta give this nice woman her books back.
Honestly.
No, it's policy.
I have to leave them as a gift because my boss thinks it'll make you call for more.
So just enjoy.
That was weird.
We're up.
Good work.
[KNOCKING.]
Oh, I get it.
Now you want 'em back.
[CARS HONKING OUTSIDE.]
Look how big you are, Crystal.
My goodness! Look at you.
Here, I got you this.
My dad bought me the same one, but I cut its hair off.
Keep your scissors away from this one.
- [CHUCKLING.]
- [SIREN BLARING OUTSIDE.]
[DOG BARKING OUTSIDE.]
[SLANEY EXHALING.]
She is just beautiful.
So are you.
I suppose congratulations are in order.
- It's a big step getting married.
- Don't you start with me.
Do you know that Child services came around? Right after you went down, they questioned whether I was a fit mother.
- [GENTLE MUSIC.]
- [SNIFFLING.]
Is he good to you? Why, he's not a fugitive for starters, - and she needed a father.
- That's not what I asked.
Why are you here? Do you love him? This is none of your damn business.
- Do you love him? - Yes.
Do you? Yes.
Just tell me the truth, Jennifer, please.
Do you love him? No.
[AUDIBLE BREATHING FROM DAVID AND JENNIFER.]
[SOFT MUSIC.]
You think I don't feel that? There's never been a day that I didn't wish you were here, but life isn't like that.
I knew you'd end up in prison or worse.
You promised to stay away from stay away from Hearn.
[JENNIFER MOANING.]
Promise? I don't care.
I don't care about any of that.
You and me Look at me.
You and me and Crystal, we leave.
Right now, we leave all of this behind.
[COUGHING.]
: Shit! If she says yes, we're finished.
- Forgive me.
- I do.
I don't care.
I don't care about any of that.
About money, about any of that.
Just I need you, I can't live without you.
You want me to take my daughter and live on the run? Like fugitives.
As fugitives.
Are you out of your mind? Please don't make me do this.
Please don't make me say this.
You know she has to be protected.
But I say no, where do you go? You go right back to him.
You go right back to Hearn.
And that can't be on me, David.
That can't be on Crystal.
There is nothing on you, what are you talking about? All this time, there has been something there's been something between us, and it's my fault because I thought I was protecting you.
Protecting me from what? Hearn.
He's rotten inside and out.
I don't want you talking about him.
I was at a party.
And I was drunk, and I was passed out.
And I woke up with Hearn on top of me.
And I tried to push him off 'cause at first, I thought he was joking.
And then I looked into his eyes and I saw who he was, I saw what he was.
And then he put his hand over my mouth and he held me down, and he just kept going.
When I was in jail? Before.
Before when? You mean Crystal, don't you? Finally.
I kept thinking if I just told you you never would have gone on that boat, you never would have got caught, you you never would have spent five years in prison.
No.
No.
You're wrong.
If you had told me, I would have done 30 years because I would have killed him.
I am only here because of you.
I had you here; that's the only reason why I'm alive, do you understand? I owe you my life.
I'm sorry.
I I love you.
- No.
- I will always love you.
No.
No.
You need to leave.
Please.
[JENNIFER SNIFFLING.]
You need to go home.
[DOOR OPENING AND CLOSING.]
[COUGHING.]
Mr.
Knight.
I never knew the guy, but his name is right next to my wife, so I see it every day.
"Douglas Knight," it's got a ring to it, don't you think? I don't mean to be disrespectful Yeah, well, then don't be.
What do you have on the old guy? It's Andre Lefevre.
He's a small-time bookie and money launderer.
Why is Slaney meeting him here? [DAVID.]
: If you don't mind where's the money? Behind the tombstone.
Yeah, "your" tombstone.
I'm assuming it's all here, I don't need to count it? [LEFEVRE CHUCKLING.]
May I ask you something? What's to stop you from just taking the money and disappearing? Oh, I'm gonna see Hearn, believe me.
We got a lot to talk about.
This woman, she was the smartest person I ever met.
I mean, except for one thing: she loved me 'til her dying breath.
Count yourself as one of the lucky ones.
[TIRES SQUEALING.]
Hey.
Does this look right to you? Cadillac? [PATTERSON.]
: Who the hell is that? That's Tommy Gabriel.
Well, this got a whole lot more interesting.
- [LEFEVRE.]
: Oh, câlisse.
- Did you do this? Non, c'est pas moi.
