Mary Kills People (2017) s02e05 Episode Script

Come to Jesus

1 [dramatic music.]
Travis? [car approaching.]
You put pento in his beer? I did.
Joshua! I can do this.
But the rest of it? The criminal shit, the bad shit that's my line.
Let's do the death retreat.
[inhales deeply.]
Okay.
- Ready? - Yeah.
Jess, I need to tell you something.
You're wasted.
What is wrong with you? Why are you acting like somebody else? My mom.
I feel like I never know what's going on with her.
I feel like she's always lying to me.
Ma'am, I'm Detective Ben Wesley.
I need to talk to you about your husband, Travis Bloom.
He's only been gone a few days.
He's disappeared for longer.
I'm sure he'll be back.
Well, we believe he's dealing drugs right out of this warehouse.
We're in.
Olivia's warehouse is completely wired for sound.
Good.
You were right about her.
And you were right about Mary Harris.
- You put a team on Mary? - Yeah.
He'll slip away now.
It's peaceful.
[breathing heavily.]
Go.
I just watched you kill someone.
I'm never gonna stop.
[soft resonant music.]
[sighs.]
Good morning.
Good morning.
I didn't know you smoked.
I don't much.
I keep quitting.
And then I start again.
I know it's bad for me, but It's addictive.
I know.
You know, yesterday with that kid Joshua.
Joshua.
I've never seen anything like that before.
You've seen people die, though.
Yeah, but not like that.
It was, um Peaceful.
[sighs.]
[cell phone buzzing.]
[breathes deeply.]
It's I'm sorry, it's work.
Should I be worried? Well, Joshua's parents covered for you.
[sighs.]
So did I.
Mary, if anyone finds out about this I can't protect you anymore.
I'd probably lose my job, you know? I know.
Come here.
I should go.
I should go.
Do you have to? Yes.
Unless you wanna tell me what happened to Travis.

[soulful music playing softly.]
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.
I almost forgot what a handsome bastard I am.
I don't know why you hide this face.
It makes no sense.
Ah, it did at the time, Tony.
[chuckling.]
Okay.
You sound like a man with a past.
I am.
But I'm ready to let it go.
The tragedy of this life is not that it ends so soon but that we wait so long to begin it.
You're not dying, are you? No.
No, no, no.
Quite the opposite, my friend.
I feel like my life is finally beginning.
[footsteps tapping.]
[shower running.]
[dramatic music.]
Mary.
[shower stops.]
I'm in your bedroom.
- What are you doing here? - You sneaky little bitch.
You got laid, didn't you? I don't wanna talk about it.
The best part about bad sex is actually talking about it.
It wasn't bad.
It was great, but it's complicated.
Because of your side job? And his day job.
But you're lovers in a dangerous time.
I have to go.
Hey, don't you wanna know why I'm here? - First thing I asked you.
- Yes, then I was momentarily distracted by the evidence of your illicit affair.
- Nicole.
- I need to talk to you about Jess.
Do you remember her? - Your firstborn? - What about her? She knows you're lying to her.
She knows you're hiding something.
She just doesn't know what.
- Did she say that? - Yes.
Okay, I'll talk to her.
Tonight.
Why not now? - Because she's at school.
- You could get it over with and see how it feels to be honest for a change.
What do you want me to do, pull her out of school and say, "Hey, Jess, I kill people"? I don't know.
Maybe.
Nicole, I gotta go.
What, are you going on a death? Des and I are doing someone a favor.
Does it still involve killing people? Mary! Listen to me for a second.
Do whatever you want.
You just have to decide at some point, how much are you willing to lose for all this? Your house? Your life? Your kids? [tense music.]
Sustainable development.
I think we should focus on water.
Water treatment, quality, access Are you even listening? Since this project is worth 50% of our grade, I really think we should start focusing.
I'll be right back, okay? Hey, girl.
I'm not your girl.
Okay, you're still mad.
Are you still mad at Jess? Whatever.
I'm over it.
Aha.
Just as I suspected.
You're cyber-stalking Jess.
Translation is, you're not over it.
Give it back.
Maybe I should like something.
- You're such a brat.
- Yeah.
Yeah, I know.
But the thing is, Jess isn't, and this whole thing is totally and completely my fault.
I was a drunk idiot.
Jess and I are not a thing.
Well, neither are Jess and me, so it doesn't really matter.
I thought you were supposed to be all, like, religious.
You know, like, forgive others for their trespasses and they will forgive us for ours? I thought you didn't believe in God.
I don't.
But you do.
Jess really likes you.
Stop being a dummy and go get her.
The shipment's in at, what, 6:00? I'll be back by then.
Test the product yourself.
Make sure we have the good stuff.
- Not like last time.
- Okay.
[ominous music.]
Any luck with Olivia Bloom? Well, there's been references to shipments and coded drug language, - but she's discreet.
- Ah, well.
You know the deal.
Sometimes it takes months to get a solid lead.
I'll stick with it.
Got an update for you on the Mary Harris case.
The Yangs gave us Joshua's laptop.
The history shows numerous searches on how to buy pentobarbital.
She's smart.
She covered her tracks.
I see.
So where does that leave us? Well, I had to take the spin team off her.
The Yangs are sticking to their story That they were alone.
Hmm.
Hmm.
How did she know we'd be there? Like you said, she's smart.
Or someone tipped her off.
- You wanna ask me something? - No.
I wanna tell you something.
Mary Harris is a criminal.
You know it, and I know it.
And we both know she killed Joshua Yang.
You sleeping with her? No.
[chuckles.]
Wow.
What about Travis Bloom? [chuckles.]
Not sleeping with him either.
[sighs.]
Mary Harris was hired to kill the guy, and no one's seen him since.
You honestly think she had nothing to do with this? You know, I never understood how you could eat like a construction worker and yet still look enormously pregnant.
I know, right? You can't even tell from behind.
My grandma says that means I'm having a boy, because a girl steals all your beauty.
Well, then it's definitely a boy.
Congratulations, Larissa.
You look wonderful.
So you're what, eh, five, six months along now, yeah? Actually, nine months.
Really? You're at nine months.
Nine.
Hang on.
I mean, well Well, that would mean Des, there's something you need to know.
[breathes nervously.]
I'm kidding.
[Laughs.]
I'm only six months.
Don't worry.
It's not yours.
I tried to wait for you.
Really, I-I did.
And then I met this basketball player, and next thing you know, I'm pregnant, and we're engaged.
Oh, wow.
That's a Congratulations.
[sighs happily.]
Yeah.
Thanks.
- Is that your grandma's file? - Yeah.
- So how's she doing? - Not good.
She's in agony.
All the time.
Every day.
She's 81, so they don't want to do a kidney transplant, and I guess she's just done.
She just wants it to stop.
"When she closed her eyes, she felt like he had many hands, "which touched her everywhere, "and many mouths, which passed so swiftly over her, "and with a wolflike sharpness, his teeth sank into her fleshiest parts.
" Ooh, that's my favorite part.
I love that.
I hear this is your favorite place to visit, Beth.
I may be blind, but I know the rhododendrons are in bloom.
And outside, the maple trees are turning orange.
And I can smell the last of the summer geraniums.
Being in here is like being part of the world again.
And I miss the world.
If it wasn't for this one here, I would've said good-bye a long time ago.
[sobs softly.]
I can't believe this little guy isn't gonna get to meet you.
You'll keep me alive in your stories.
[softly.]
I don't want you to go.
Remember to always love as deeply as you can.
[gentle music.]
Oh, be strong.
Be strong, like I taught you.
[sobbing.]
It it's time.
[sobbing.]
Shh, shh.
It's time.
[crying.]
Be brave.
Be brave.
Be brave.
I love you, Larissa.
[crying softly.]
Larissa? Are you gonna be okay? Yeah.
I just wanna sit here for a little while with her before I make the call.
Okay.
Okay.
What was that about? I don't know.
All of a sudden, it just felt too much.
Too much what? We just helped a dying woman say good-bye to her granddaughter in her favorite place in the world.
- It was perfect.
- Des, I'm scared.
Of what, getting caught? Of everything.
I know.
I No, you don't.
It's not the same for you.
I have kids.
My sister came by this morning.
She asked me how much I was willing to lose for this.
She doesn't understand.
You can't let your sister get in your head.
[suspenseful music.]
I need time to think figure it all out.
Of course.
You do what you need to do.
Thank you.
Hi.
Hey.
I've got something to tell you.
I got the condo.
Well, Kevin, that's great.
Mary, I'm taking the girls.
Not permanently, of course.
But home base is gonna be with me from now on.
- Like hell it is.
- Come on, Mary.
Since I've been here, you've been home how many nights? [exhales sharply.]
And you know what? It wasn't my idea.
Jess wants to move out.
[stirring music.]
Yes.
And Cambie wants to be with her.
Oh, so you've all talked about this.
Yes.
We have.
Wow.
She's just mad at me because of the party.
"Because of the party.
" There's more to it than that.
Okay, I wanna talk to her.
I have to fix this.
Where is she? In the backyard, with Heather.
Hey.
You still cool with me taking the fridge? Just take it.
Please.
You sure it was Naomi and not a clone? [chuckling.]
I'm pretty sure.
Although she was quoting the Lord's Prayer, so you know, I wouldn't swear to it.
You know I am sorry, right? I know.
[both chuckle softly.]
Jess? - Hi, Dr.
Harris.
- Heather, hi.
Can I talk to you for a minute? Clearly I have company.
I know.
So just say whatever you wanna say, 'cause I'm obviously gonna tell Heather anyways.
Your dad just told me you were thinking about moving in with him.
Yeah.
I was hoping to take you out to dinner tonight.
- Just you and me.
- Why? So you can try and convince me to stay or something? Look, I know I haven't been around much lately, and that's my fault.
I wanna change it.
Come on.
I'll make a reservation at Il Ponte's.
I love that place.
I always get a double order of the lobster ravioli.
And then I feel sick, but it's totally worth it.
I mean it'll probably be better than Cambie's stupid lentil surprise.
So you'll come? Yes, okay.
Yes.
Great.
- The things I do for you.
- [chuckles.]
I'm totally worth it.
[machinery beeping.]
Hey, Paulie, you wanna bring that over here? [tools whirring.]
Hey, you got a minute? - No.
- Shipment's here.
I don't need to be alerted every time a scheduled shipment arrives.
Driver's asking for you.
Did he say why? Said he needs you to sign off or something.
[ominous music.]
[sighs.]
[high heels clicking.]
[metal clanking.]
[gunshot, grunting.]
[gripping music.]
This is Wesley! Gunshot heard over the wire! Tac team, secure location! [tense music.]
Police! Get your hands in the air.
Get down! Get down! [men shouting.]
- Don't move, don't move! - [grunts.]
- Don't move.
- Get down! [dog barking.]
Don't move! [barking.]
Detective Ben Wesley.
One of you wanna tell me where your boss is? She's not here.
What time did she leave? No idea.
She doesn't stick around after hours.
Look, we're responding to a call we got about gunfire on the premises.
What? Who called? - I don't know, a neighbor? - We don't have any neighbors.
We got a call about gunfire.
We have to search the property, okay? You know, sometimes a box falls, oven tips over, makes a loud sound.
Maybe that's what they heard.
Seems like something you'd remember.
All right, well, since we're here, we're gonna search the property, okay? I almost forgot what it was like here.
We haven't been back since your dad and I Split up? Separated? Divorced? It was kind of like our family place, wasn't it? Do you remember the first time we came here? [sighs.]
No.
It was after your first big ballet recital.
You were turning seven.
I was eight.
Eight.
And Cambie [laughs.]
She was so jealous you got to wear your tutu to dinner.
[chuckles.]
Is this gonna be one of those dinners where you reminisce about the good old days, make me feel guilty? Why would that make you feel guilty? That's what you do.
I'm sorry.
If I do that, it's not on purpose.
[sighs, inhales sharply.]
Mom, nothing you say is gonna change my mind.
About moving in with Dad? Yeah.
I've decided.
Jess, you're my daughter.
So? So it means I'm gonna fight for you.
Any questions about the menu? Do you still have the lobster ravioli? We do.
We're famous for it.
Great.
We will start with a double order.
[laid-back rock music.]
[exhaling.]
Ooh! I needed that.
Mm, evidently.
Another? Wait, are you trying to get me drunk? 'Cause this is this is not gonna happen, and your phony British accent doesn't do it for me.
Oh, really? 'Cause Mary said when you went to visit her at med school, you had a a massive crush on me.
I believe you wanted to play with my ponytail? You know, if you and Mary think that some childhood crush is gonna convince me that your killing business is a good idea, you are so delusional.
She doesn't even know I'm here.
- And what is this about? - Read it.
What, are you opening up a spa? [chuckles.]
A hospice.
Except not just for people who are too sick to take care of themselves.
This is for those who've come to terms with their illness.
Mary and I are gonna stay still.
Plant roots.
Try to do this right.
Did Mary tell you that I went on a death with her? - [chuckles.]
- Estelle.
Yeah, she lived life to the fullest.
But she was ready to go.
'Cause I could see it in her strength, her peace.
So you get it.
Oh of course you do.
I mean, your mother No.
Estelle knew exactly what she wanted.
But my mother Joy used to say pain was inevitable and suffering was optional.
[chuckles.]
I'm sorry.
Her name was Joy? Yeah.
[chuckling.]
Joy.
Suicidal mother of two.
The thing is that she actually had some pretty good days, you know, days where she loved life.
You know, days where she loved us, even.
What if that day was just a really bad day? How do you know when it's the right thing to do? Because We don't decide.
Our patients do.
Can I tell you a secret? Sometimes when I come home late at night, I look into your room and watch you sleep.
That's creepy.
[chuckles.]
It is, a little.
[laughs.]
When I get to watch you just lying there, unguarded this beautiful, amazing young woman my kid I don't know, I feel I feel okay.
I know I've taken you for granted recently, and I'm sorry for that.
But, Jess, you and Cambie are everything to me.
Honestly, I can't live without you.
Okay.
You've made your case.
And I hear you.
Can we talk about something else, please? I like her, you know.
Heather.
I think we're in a good place now.
It it's been a little complicated.
Complicated can be good.
Sexy, even.
[chuckling nervously.]
Oh okay, Mom.
Was it like that with you and anyone? Yes.
[Chuckles.]
When? With who? Um a patient.
Last year.
He was, uh dying of cancer.
And I couldn't get him out of my head.
Wow, that That is complicated.
Did he die? Nope, he didn't.
So are you gonna see him again? [soft music.]
I want to.
Problem is, what I do is very important to me.
But it can be hard for other people to understand.
Why? Because you work so much? [cell phone ringing.]
Sorry.
It's okay.
You can get it.
It's fine, really.
[cell phone buzzing.]
Hello? Is this Mary? I need to talk to Mary.
Hello? Um, I'll be right back.
[suspenseful music.]
Maya? What's wrong? My mom's hurt, and she told me to call you.
Where is she, honey? Where's your mom? Please hurry.
Maya, listen to me.
You need to call 911.
No, no, she wants you to come over.
Okay Maya? Maya, it's okay.
It's okay.
I'll be right over.
I-I need to hang up now, but I'll be I'll be there soon, okay? Okay.
[breathing raggedly.]
There's been an emergency at the hospital.
I'm gonna give you my card.
You know the PIN, right? Wait, what happened? You're gonna have to take an Uber.
Are you okay with that? You're leaving? I'm sorry, baby.
I really I have to go.
[water running.]
[tense music.]
Hi, Maya.
Hi.
Where's your mom? She's in the back.
You were very brave on the phone.
Is my mom gonna be okay? - I don't know yet.
- You need to help her.
She's here, Mommy.
Thank you, Puffin.
Inside, all right? Go get ready for bed.
But I wanna stay out here.
Go inside into the playroom.
Watch something on the big TV.
- I'll be right there.
- Okay.
[breathing heavily.]
What happened? [clears throat.]
Help me, Mary.
I'm sure you don't wanna go to the hospital, - but the - No, no hospitals.
Too many questions.
[grunts.]
- Okay, you need surgery.
- [grunts.]
You.
You do it.
- No, that's not what I do.
- Yes, it is.
Tonight it is.
Anything you want, Mary.
All right? Anything you want, it's yours.
Just help me.
I don't wanna die, okay? I can't die, Mary.
[voice breaking.]
Who will take care of Maya? Please.
I'm gonna need supplies.
Whatever you're looking for, it ain't here, man.
What exactly am I looking for? We've searched the whole place.
Offices, trucks, boxes.
There's nothing here.
No drugs, no dead bodies, no sign of the missing husband.
- Boss, I know what I heard.
- I know.
You made a judgment call.
It didn't pan out.
I'm pulling the plug.
[sighs.]
[grunts angrily.]
What the hell happened? You called him? I need his help.
She's lost a lot of blood.
And the bullet is still I think it's lodged in a muscle.
And we're gonna take it out? Her daughter's inside.
She's eight.
And as you know, she doesn't have another parent to take care of her right now.
Pento? Okay, what are you doing? [whispering.]
She can't be awake.
Can I trust you? Do you have a choice? What are you doing? I believe they call it "drowning my sorrows.
" You wanna get messed up with me? [sighs.]
Not really.
Yeah, I didn't think so.
[glass shatters.]
[inhales deeply.]
Okay.
I take it dinner didn't go so well.
She just left me there.
At the restaurant? Yeah, she said there was an emergency at the hospital, like I'm stupid or something, like She obviously a hospital wouldn't video call a doctor, and it was, like, this little kid calling.
I feel like this battered wife.
Like, I keep going back and I think she's gonna be different, but then she just keeps punching me in the heart.
I'm sorry I told you to go.
[sobs softly.]
I just wanna move out of here and never come back.
I know.
I know.
Snap.
Jesus.
It must've nicked a blood vessel.
Help me.
Come on.
Tighter.
[exhales shakily.]
I've been here before.
We could let go right now.
I did it with Grady.
You did it with Travis.
It would solve a lot of our problems.
Is that what we do now? I don't know.
Are we killers? I don't wanna be.
Let's close it up.
Come on.
You wanna wipe it up? [soft dramatic music.]
Do you have anyone who can come over? Maya has a nanny.
She'll be here in the morning.
I'll let you rest.
And I checked on your daughter.
She's sleeping.
Thank you.
I want the bullet.
I know you didn't throw it away.
Who did this to you? Well there are two possibilities.
The first Travis.
That's not a possibility.
Shit.
I was hoping it was him.
Travis I can handle, but the people I work for [inhales deeply.]
Hey, unless you're God, you're always answering to someone.
And who are you answering to? You know, a cop came to my warehouse the other day.
[ominous music.]
My suppliers found out.
They don't like cops.
I should go.
What would I do without you, Mary? My guardian angel.
I don't think so.
But you are, Mary.
And I stand by my word.
Anything you want it's yours.
I want you to leave me and Des alone.
[chuckles weakly.]
You're so funny, Mary.
Really.
I've always liked that about you.
You know I've never saved a life before.
- How does it feel? - Like death.
But messier.
I can't do this anymore.
Can't you see? This is the problem.
Not what we do.
[mysterious vocalization.]
I know.
[melancholy rock music.]
If I lie well enough Will it bring me up? What do you say? Gonna let the truth Sit on the shelf What do you say? Hey.
Caught between A rock and a hard place - What was that for? - [sighs.]
I had a really bad day.
Tell me about it.
Is that blood? Yeah.
Then maybe you should go first.
Did you ever have a come-to-Jesus moment? Yeah, once or twice.
Why? I think I had one tonight.
What do you mean? I know how to get Olivia.
