Make Yourself at Home (2025) Movie Script
(suspenseful music)
(suspenseful music intensifies)
You do this all the time to here.
Take you to the door, man.
Buy all the time. Get outta here.
Will a burger work?
Alright, have a good day.
(suspenseful music)
Oh, we can fight her.
Get you ass over here.
(fists thuds) (woman screams)
(suspenseful music continues)
We begin this morning With
yet another heartbreaking story
from our city's streets.
Another homeless individual
has been found murdered,
adding to the grim total
that continues to rise.
This latest victim, whose
identity is yet to be confirmed,
was discovered early this
morning on the city's south side.
This makes the fourth and fifth victim
- Hey, Baby.
- In just the past four weeks.
Hey, mom.
A little more about this early, isn't it?
By those living on the street.
Community advocates have more protection.
It's the news, mom,
besides, don't you want me
to be informed?
I'm just saying,
you need to be careful what
you're feeding your mind,
especially first thing in the morning.
Fine.
- Hey.
- Hey, baby.
Hey, dad.
Okay, what did I miss?
Not much. Mom thinks I'm
working my brain with the news.
Well, gotta stay informed.
See, mom, that's exactly what I said.
But still, you don't
want to feed your brain
that negativity so early.
Dad. I am gonna be home late.
I have to work on my project.
What project?
Her little photojournalism thingy.
I told you, daddy,
I'm focusing on the
abject poverty in our city.
Don't you remember?
Oh, right. Taking
pictures of the homeless.
Maybe you should wait until
I get home. I can go with you.
No, dad, I'm not a baby. I'll be fine.
No one is saying you are.
We're just saying with
all that stuff going on.
And that's why it's so important.
I mean, they already have it bad enough
and now somebody is preying on them.
It's sick.
Child, it's just a school newspaper.
What your mother it means is.
Dad, stop it.
I know exactly what she means.
Oh, I said what I said.
What?
- It means a lot to her.
- You're too soft on her.
I'm too soft on the both of y'all.
If you know what's good
for you, happy wife, happy life.
Nah, I'm more of a happy
man as God's playing kind of guy.
Hmm. Is that right?
Well, I have a surprise
for you when we get home.
- Oh really?
- Oh yeah.
(camera ticking)
Innocent, how long we gonna be out here.
Until I get all my shots.
You see how that doesn't
answer my question, right?
This is fun, Toby. Come on.
You come on.
Listen, I only came down here
so you wouldn't be here by yourself.
And I appreciate it,
but what good would the
judge should be if I didn't get
the pictures that I needed?
These homeless people,
they gonna beat your ass
if they catch you trying
to take their picture.
They'll never know I'm here.
You don't think they see
that expensive ass camera
you got?
- Mm. That reminds me.
- What?
I gotta turn on my hotspot.
You know the camera
only ought to uploads picks
when it's connected to the WiFi.
Oh, okay. I get it.
So if it gets stolen, you'll
still have your photos.
- Mm-hmm.
- Smart.
I know, but I don't
have to worry about that
because you'll protect me.
Right, lover Boy?
Shit, I'll show your ass which way to run
and you better keep up.
I could always outrun you, Toby.
That's count. Maybe when
we were like nine years old.
Nine years old. Okay, whatever.
But for reals, if I left you down here,
Ms. Carrie would kill me.
I'm more afraid of her than
I am of any of these people.
Well, she doesn't think
I should be down here.
She's right.
No, she doesn't understand.
But when she sees it's in
the newspaper, she'll get it.
It's just a school newspaper.
- You sound just like her.
- Great minds.
Great minds!
- Man, come on, let's go.
- I hate her. I hate her.
(door knocking)
- Come in.
- Good morning, pastor.
Oh sister Penny.
You look nice today.
Thank you.
These expense reports are ready for
the trustee board meeting.
I thought you might wanna look over them
before I turn them in.
- Anything interesting?
- They're expense reports.
How interesting could they be?
The demand for the expansion
of the shelter is growing.
It's gonna cost a little
more than we budgeted.
So you may want to talk to
them about diverting more funds.
I mean, we can try it,
but you know how they are.
And then after that, we're gonna have
to draft up new proposals
for the city, the county,
and the local municipalities.
And also next week you have a meeting
with the city comptroller's office
and the mayor's legal counsel.
You okay, pastor?
Oh, I mean, yes, of course I'm here.
Honestly, I don't know.
You ever feel like God is testing you?
Sure. I mean sometimes.
What, what's the matter?
I don't know. It's just
this homeless situation.
I mean, we've been
blessed with a solid team
and we have more than enough resources
to build two or three new shelters.
But there's all these politics
and bureaucracy in the way.
Yeah, but that's out of your power.
I mean, but that's what
I'm saying. God is in control.
Right? And he cares for the least of these.
- [Penny] He does.
- Right.
Then why would he make it so hard for us
to look after these people?
I just feel like I'm on a hamster wheel.
Roadblock after roadblock. It's too much.
Isaiah, listen to me.
You have led the church
through ups and downs before.
This is no different. Okay?
I'm confident that the Lord is going
to grant you all the answers
that you're looking for.
You just have to hold fast to your faith.
Faith.
I'm sorry, Penny, I didn't
mean to drop that on you.
No, it's okay.
I guess a man of the cloth
isn't supposed to have doubts.
Right?
Well, whoever said
that has obviously never
been a man of the cloth.
- Penny?
- Yeah.
What'd I do without you?
I have no idea.
Okay, I'm gonna get
started on these proposals
and then I'll send you my notes via email.
You might have to burn
the midnight oil on this one,
but we got this.
Okay?
Okay.
- Penny?
- Yeah.
Before you go, if anything comes up
or if you need anything,
just gimme a call or a text.
- Okay, Isaiah.
- Bye, Penny.
Bye.
Tell me how to do me.
Ain't never I been doing me.
You know what I'm saying?
Tell me how to do. Me either.
Well, well, well, what
do we have here? Huh?
Ain't that woman a long?
Hey, it's a like freeway.
I'm just being a little friendly.
Ain't never wrong with that.
Hey, sweetheart. Huh? Where you headed?
Looking all fine and shit.

You ain't gotta be mad and shit.

Oh, that's where we going.

Next time you want to be hospitable

Huh? You ready for that thrust?
You ready to feel it? (Coughs)
Don't mind that cough. I just

(air whooshing) (siren blaring)
I can't believe we've
been out here all day.
I know.
I can't wait to get some food with you.
- Hold on.
- Yeah.
Let me see that photo.
Oh gosh.
Oh wow.
- What?
- That looks really good.
Style. You think so?
Hell yeah. You got an off of this?
Thank you. It's gonna
be a really great piece.
- I can feel it.
- I think so.
What's wrong?
I'm gonna give him something.
Excuse me, sir.
- Yes.
- What are you doing?
Mind if I, oh, can you
gimme a second, please?
I'm gonna show you something.
Are you sure about this?
Thank you very much. Is that me?
- Yes.
- What if others try to.
Toby, relax please.
Here go sir.
Thank you very much.
You have a nice night. Okay.
Toby, why are you being so extra?
I just need a couple more pictures. Okay.
Can you stop acting scared.
- Scared?
- Yes. Scared.
Did you forget about the
murder out here in these streets?
No, I haven't forgotten about the murder.
And I also haven't
forgotten who the murder is
preying on, Toby.
This is important. Take a look around.
They have nothing.
Okay? Okay. You're right.
Just promise me you won't get me killed.
Maybe. Just kidding.
- Of course. I promise.
- Thank you.
Oh, you ain't going nowhere with that.
You stand right here. Hear
me. Oh. Oh. Come here.
- Come here.
- Get off of me.
Come here.
Oh, you bit me my chest,
you freaking motherfucker.
Oh, I knew you was nasty.
Come your ass. Come here. Gimme
(fists thuds)
No, you around a fight there.
Oh, come here. Come here. Oh. Oh.
I kill you, bitch. Huh?
Help, help.
Innocence.
That's your back with me.
Hey, stop, stop.
You mind your business.
You, bitch, you stabbed me.
Leave alone. Go away. Leave alone.
Oh. I'm coming back for the head.
Go away.
- Leave her alone.
- Go away.
Ma'am. Ma'am. Ma'am, are you okay? Ma'am?
Can you, can you speak?
Come on, let's go.
We can't just leave her out here.
I told you, I told you we
shouldn't have come down here
in the first place and now this?
She's gonna die to just call the cops.
That's not our problem.
Tody, just call the
cops. She's not breathing.
Yes, we have a lady.
She's not breathing.
She's down. She can't breathe.
Help.
- Innocent.
- Innocent.
- Innocent, baby.
- Mom.
- Oh baby. Okay.
- Yes, I'm fine. I'm fine.
- Sure.
- Yes. Yes.
What happened?
I mean, it all happened so fast.
We saved a woman's life.
- You did what?
- Woman, please.
You gotta do something.
- No. He tried to rape me.
- Ma'am.
- No, he tried to kill me.
- I know, I understand.
Please just, just give
us time. We'll find him.
Bye, Mr. and Mrs.
Worker. My, my dad's here.
Bye, sweetie.
- What is, what's going on.
- Ma'am?
Hi - Sir.
- Hey, how's it going?
- Detective Stevens.
- Okay.
- Is this your daughter?
Carrie Rucker and
Isaiah Rucker, my husband.
Yes, this is our daughter
and that was her friend.
Okay, well, your daughter was part
of a assault earlier today.
She was just there. She
helped out our victim over here.
So we brought her down to the hospital just
to make sure everything's okay.
But she's not hurt.
Now, our victim, on the
other hand, she can't,
or most likely won't say too much.
Can you blame her
for not trusting the police?
Innocent?
- Hey, baby.
- Show some respect.
No, no. It's, it's okay. It's cool.
It's the relationship between police
and homeless is tenuous to say the least.
And even with the murders going on,
they're still a little bit reluctant.
But at this point we gotta
focus on the matter at hand.
So is there anything you can
tell me about the man in the alley?
The man in the alley.
The man in the alley.
He was, he was short.
He was African American.
I don't, I don't know. I have pictures.
I have pictures. A second.
Okay. Look, look.
Here he is. Oh, whoa. Well, kind of. Okay.
I hope it helps.
No, this, this, it's perfect.
But I'm gonna need the
memory card for evidence.
- Wait, what? You can do that.
- Is she in trouble?
- Dad? It's okay.
- Baby. Are you sure?
Yes. I wanna help.
I don't think so.
Besides all the photos are
backed up in the cloud anyways.
- Thank you.
- All right.
And I have your information,
but if you think of anything
else, please just let me know.
Thank you.
- Thanks again.
- Thank you.
Y'all have a good one. Thank you.
You should have come straight home.
I told you I had an assignment.
You had us so worried.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Not as sorry as you gonna be.
We are just happy that you're okay.
Isaiah, don't downplay the situation.
She needs to understand the seriousness
and that she could have
put herself in danger.
I mean, I agree, but maybe we should
talk about this some, in some other place.
- Fine.
- Hmm?
Let's go.
Alright, come on. Let's go.
Hey. No, no, no, no.
We can't go. Yeah, I have
to make sure she's okay.
She's
- Are you the family?
- No, sir.
I believe she's homeless.
Got it.
That can explain why she was
reluctant to give us anything.
She would barely tell us her, her name.
- Is she okay?
- She, she's fine.
She's going to be fine.
The injuries that she
have are very, very minor.
We will be discharging her
out very, very soon though.
Discharging her.
You mean sending her
back out on the street?
I'm very, very, very, very sorry.
There's no other medical
attention really cried for for her.
What are you suggesting?
We can't keep her here though.
She has nowhere to go, mom.
She can go to a shelter.
No. I checked the
numbers earlier with Penny.
That is our church. Your
church that built that shelter.
And you're telling me that they won't make
an exception even for you.
I mean, it doesn't
work like that, Carrie?
No special treatment.
Well, what about other shelters?
I mean, I mean, tonight is
one of the highest demand days.
I don't think so.
I dunno. I dunno about this.
We have to do something.
Or is all that doing good
for the least of these, just talk.
- Innocence.
- Innocence, baby
Innocence.
Welcome.
(phone ringing)
This is Penny. I gotta take this.
All right, Trudy, make yourself at home.
Mom, do we sell those clothes we were
gonna give to the shelter?
Yeah. They're in the closet upstairs.
Can I go check and
see if there's anything
that'll fit Ms. Trudy?
Yeah, sure.
You know your daughter saved my life.
She's a good girl with a big heart.
Sometimes too big. I
mean, she's just a teenager.
She shouldn't be out in the streets trying
to be a hero.
Look, I know you don't want me here.
I overheard your
conversation at the hospital.
It wasn't like that.
No, it's cool. I understand.
I wouldn't have invited me
either. I mean, look at me.
I'm toe up from the flow up.
But in all honesty, I
really do appreciate it.
Thank you.
Listen, I don't mean
to be insensitive to you
or your situation, but I don't know you.
I have Miss Trudy's clothes.
Hey Innocence, we trying to
show Miss Trudy on guest room.
Come on, Ms. Trudy.
Isn't it a little late for
Penny to be calling?
Well, she gave me
an update on the shelter.
And a text wasn't sufficient.
- You good?
- Honestly, no, I'm not good.
Because it's feeling like
you're bending over backwards
to a accommodate a whole
lot of other women right now.
Oh, come on, Carrie. That's not fair.
Part of my job, part of my
calling is to be a servant, babe.
You know, when you marry me, you have
to share me with other people.
- And now my house too.
- It just wasn't right.
Look, a space will come available
in the morning at the shelter.
We can place her there.
She'll be fine. We'll be fine.
And things will go back
to being normal. Okay?
(footsteps clanging)
She's settling in, and
about to shower too.
Probably been a while.
Just keep an eye on her.
(door knocking)
- Yes.
- Dinner is almost ready.
Okay. I'll be out in a few minutes.
- Can I help?
- No, thanks. We got it.
Ms. Trudy, do you wanna see my photos?
You took all those downtown today?
Mm-hmm. I did.
All right. Time to eat.
(gentle music)
Father God, Matthew 25:40 says,
and the king will apply, Truly, I tell you,
those who have done the least
for these brothers and sisters
of mine did for me.
That is our charge.
But not often our practice.
Today, we thank you for
giving us the opportunity
to share what we have
with another of your children.
Thank you for the food
we are about to receive,
for the nourishment of our bodies.
In Jesus' name, and for his sake
and his grace, Amen.
- Amen.
- Amen.
Everything looks so good.
I bet you're pretty hungry, huh?
Yeah. I just love the taste of meat.
I, I mean, steak. It's really
good. Thank, thank you.
Well, thank you.
So, you really do have a beautiful home.
Thank you. It, it
wasn't always this nice.
Isaiah and I come from
very humble beginnings.
We had to fight and scrape
for everything we have.
Everything.
- So you're fighters, huh?
- We're hard workers.
It would appears so.
So what do you do for a living,
if you don't mind me asking?
Well, I'm the lead pastor of a church.
- A man of faith.
- A family of faith? Yes.
And what about you, Ms. Rucker?
Do you work at the church too?
Oh, no. My job is much more boring.
I work in HR, but I'm
volunteering at the church
each and every week.
- Children's ministry?
- No, security.
What she means is that she coordinates
with the greeters and the ushers.
And part of their job is to wash the door.
Keep the undesirables out, right?
Exactly.
No, that's not it. I
mean, all the welcome.
We just can't be too sure
or too careful, should I say.
It makes sense.
It's been, what, about 20
years since I started New Hope
Church to think we only
began with five members.
Yeah. Year in and year
out. God has blessed us.
Our congregation and
the communities we serve.
Can't relate.
I had a rough life.
Well, how did you become homeless?
Innocence.
Innocence, come on baby.
Don't be rude.
I wasn't trying to be rude.
I'm just simply interested in her story.
I'm sorry, Ms. Trudy.
You have nothing to apologize for.
Let's just say life has been unkind.
It doesn't have to be.
I'm hoping to bring more awareness to
how the system has
made it difficult for you
and for others like you.
You really are a precious young woman.
You see the world through such pure eyes.
What's wrong with that?
Nothing. It's just, it's a little naive.
- Excuse me.
- Don't take it like that.
Naivete is good in children, idealism.
You can believe that the
world will be a better place.
Honestly, I, I envy young innocence.
I mean, the world can be
a better place if people just
pull their weight and put
their hands to the plow just
One if more people lend a helping hand.
Can I ask to a question, Trudy?
- Shoot.
- Oh, are you a believer?
- Dad?
- It's no judgment.
- It's just a question.
- Stop.
I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.
I'm not uncomfortable. It's okay.
I, I actually welcome this conversation.
I believe in God, just not
so sure he believes in me.
Are you offended?
No. Not offended at all.
We just want you to be
clear about God's love for you.
Oh, I'm clear. Believe me.
I understand better than you think.
- Really?
- Absolutely.
I mean, God brought us here today. Right?
Exactly.
It's truly a blessing to be here.
If you didn't come along when you did, I,
I just don't get very many
opportunities like this.
Good food, company,
clean clothes, a bed.
Thank you.
- You deserve it.
- How do you know?
What do you mean?
How do you know that someone deserves,
I don't know, say kindness?
Well, Christ teaches
us to be kind to all our
brothers and sisters.
No matter what.
No matter what.
- What about evil?
- What about it?
I've just seen some really evil things.
Evil people
On the streets, I'm sure you have.
Yeah, like that man who tried to hurt you
and take advantage of you.
Exactly.
Makes you wonder if
there's people in the world
who deserve to receive
kindness at face value.
Okay, well, praise God
we haven't run into anyone like that yet.
- Who wants ice cream? I do.
- I do.
It's sherbert.
Okay. I like sherbert. I can do that.
Yay.
What flavor is it?
Orange, duh.
Alright. That's my girl. (Laughs)
So like I was saying, so I
had a leg bust wide open.
I'm talking from the east side to the west.
I'm giving shorty the time of her life.
When she look at me. You know what she say?
What you say?
You sure you know what you doing?
- Huh?
- This a real fine engine.
You done fired it up?
(all laughs)
No. What that, that's
what she saying. Huh?
Oh my mama, bro.
So I look between her
legs. Look that dead eyes.
I said I could tell nobody changed the oil.
And this in a motherfucker wild.
I done gave you lying.
What? No, Tim. I lying.
Hey.
The only thing I be lie about
is lying down these holes.
You know what I'm saying? Lying down.
- Saying bitch.
- Damn, Hank.
What the hell happened to you?
Huh? Y'all seen that bitch?
- Oh, what?
- Who? Who?
What the?
You know what bitch I'm talking about.
Oh, that fine as bag lady
that been around here lately?
- Huh?
- Bag lady.
That fine. I ain't gonna lie. She fine.
Where she at? Huh?
I don't fucking know. Huh?
Y'all know where she at? Huh?
Tell that bitch when I see her
I'm gonna slit motherfucking throat.
I ain't gonna lie, Hank.
You might have to chill, bro.
Like bird on the street,
police looking for your ass.
I don't give a fuck.
You, you need to get
that checked out there.
Don't fucking touch me.
Hey, don't talk to him like that.
You better get the fuck out my face.
I ain't scared of you will hank.
Hey ain't big Hank.
I ain't gonna lie, the
only thing big on him
is his attitude.
You know? I already don't like him.
He ain't nothing big on that boy.
I do not like that boy.
Look at, look at him.
I cut him.
I hope they cut the other side.
He ain't be no good at all. (Laughs)
Keeping limping pimping.
Your leg gonna be dead like mine.
- Lose legged.
- Ain't be no good.
Look, all I'm saying is
that this generation
has zero attention span.
Now, that's something I can agree with.
All their social media,
it's killing their minds.
Do you have a different perspective, Trudy?
Perspective? Nah.
That's not true.
Everyone has a perspective, miss Trudy?
Yeah, what do you think?
I, I don't know. It
just all seems so trivial.
It's hard to see anything
other than what's in front of you.
When you've seen what I've seen.
- Hardships.
- Deaths,
bodies lying in the streets.
Innocent, baby, I think
you should go upstairs.
Mom, I'm almost an adult.
No, Innocent, mommy's right.
Seeing the death of a body. That's sad.
But witnessing the death of a mind,
it's truly heartbreaking.
- Heartbreaking. Huh?
- Mm-hmm.
Though the worst would
be to see a soul die,
don't you think, Pastor Rucker?
I mean, sure.
The Lord would desire
that none of his sheep
find themselves in a wilderness.
For I'm the good shepherd
who lay down his life
for the sheep, for the hired
hand is not a shepherd.
For when he sees the wolf coming,
he abandons the sheep and runs away.
John, chapter 11.
So are you a shepherd
Pastor Rucker or a hired hand?
I would never abandon my flock.
- That's admirable.
- What about you, Trudy?
Are you a sheep or you a wolf?
Well, I'll take these.
- Oh no, you don't have to.
- Oh, it's okay.
It's the least I can do.
- Thank you.
- You are welcome.
(phone ringing)
Penny. What you got?
Oh, that's fantastic. Okay.
We will make the arrangements.
All right. Thank you. Penny.
What'd she say?
There's a bed open at the shelter.
That's great. This
will be so good for her.
They'll get her the help she needs.
(suspenseful music)
Why are you going through our drawers?
I, I, I was just looking for
a sponge to wash the bowls.
I hope I wasn't outta line.
Oh, you must certainly are outta line.
I get that you're being thankful.
But this, this isn't appropriate.
My apologies. I was just
trying to make myself at home.
I guess I'll pack my things
and get out of your hair.
- Trudy. It's okay.
- No, it's not okay.
I'm sorry that I got agitated.
But when you're guessing
someone's home, it's impolite to go
through their things.
Next time just ask.
Well, I guess you don't
have to worry about it
next time, right?
It would seem Penny found
a spot for me at the shelter.
She did. We'll give you a
ride and get you all settled in.
Well, thank you guys so
much for your hospitality.
Dinner was amazing.
And I haven't had sherbert ice
cream since I was a teenager,
so thank you.
Was it as good as you remember?
Better?
Honestly, the thing I
remember most about that day
is it's the first time I
ever played spades.
What? What did I say?
You said the magic words, spades.
Dad, mom, can we play please?
I don't know. We, we should
be getting her to the shelter.
Mom. Come on. It's
always just the three of us.
You never have a four.
Come on, Carrie, please.
- Come on, Carrie.
- Ah, okay. Okay.
Innocence to the table.
Dang. I call D for a partner.
You got a be girl. I'll get the cart.
Well, I guess it's just you and me.
Yes it is.
So what you got Carrie?
- Hmm. Man. Three tops.
- Damn, that's it.
Language. We got a
minor at the table, remember.
- Mom, I'm not a child.
- Girl, you are a child.
First is the D-word and next
thing you gonna be walking
around talking like you Cat Williams.
Wow. The D word.
Nobody even knows who Cat Williams is.
We know who Cat Williams is.
Whatever. Whatever.
You know what I'm going for nine.
Nine. Dad, what? Are you sure?
- Nine.
- Look, I don't even know
why we even playing this hand.
We already know. Gonna win.
Well, you better wear that I with pride.
Oh, well. Ah. Where you going?
I need to go grab my
things. I got about 10 minutes.
I'll be right back, okay.
And when I come back, it's time to go.
You know where to find me.
Make sure you keep in touch.
Okay? Well gimme a hug at least.
Thank you so much for everything.
- Stay safe.
- I'll try.
Whoa. Time really got
away from us. Want a drink?
- Sure.
- All right.
When the world says cheers.
So do you ever get that itch?
- Itch?
- What do you mean?
Well, you know exactly what I mean.
I mean, you've been married
practically your whole life.
Nah, I'm a man of faith
that you so eloquently put it.
Besides even if I wanted
to, who would've the time?
So you wanted to, I mean, you haven't
always been a man of faith.
High and mighty.
I'm not high and mighty.
So you've thought
about it. Never acted on it.
No. I'm just clean as a whistle.
I don't believe that.
You ain't never stepped
out on her boring ass?
- Yeah.
- Not once.
She's not boring. She
does have a nice ass though.
- There it is.
- That what is
The lust?
This is silly.
I don't even, I, I
shouldn't even be talking
to you like this. I don't know you.
But don't act like you don't like it.
The danger, tiptoeing
up to the line of taboo.
But why does it matter anyway?
You're not gonna see me after today, right?
- Okay. Cards on the table.
- Cards on the table.
Cards on the table.
I want to have something with someone else.
But that was before Carrie.
I once had something with someone else.
That's so clinical. Come on Pastor Rock.
Was it good?
- It was real good.
- So what happened?
She had an opportunity
to take a pastoral job
in another city.
Oh, church lady.
Yeah. It was a long time ago.
It was the past. I'm
happy with my life now.
Are you?
So we're good to go.
Hey, babe.
I was thinking it's getting pretty late
and it sounds like a storm is brewing out.
Maybe Trudy should stay here tonight.
(thunder clapping)
What?
I mean, we were already planning a habit
and the, we know the guest
room is already made up.
We just take it in the morning.
Fine.
Gimme some of that brown.
Like a ladies bad bitches now.
Gimme some of that. Yak.
I'm gonna show you how to, eh?
Yeah. Oh. Huh?
You hear that?
Sound like coming from over
there? Over there? Over there?
Yeah. I'm, I'm gonna check it out.
You stay. Well, you can't go nowhere.
No, I can't move.
What the fuck? It's somebody in there.
- Help me, please.
- Oh shit.
- Hurry big up.
- It's Hunk.
Please.
Hey, free. Oh.
Just because things don't fit
inside your perfect little box
doesn't mean that it's wrong.
She's been through a lot, Carrie.
No, that's what I'm saying.
She doesn't talk like a homeless
person though. You know?
She talks like a
professor or a philosopher,
even a theologian.
You don't think that's strange?
I mean, I would imagine she
ain't always been homeless.
Perhaps she attended college
before she fell on hard times.
You can't judge her.
(camera clicking)
(Innocent screams)
I am really, really sorry.
I should have asked you first.
You're right. Did you
even get my best side?
Well, did you?
Oh, come on. What are
you waiting for? I got you.
So what are you thinking?
- Sit right there?
- You want me right here?
Yeah. All right.
But what's life without a risk
Like what's Mike without a chip
I guess I'll never know
Pass a cup, I need off
You got me going through my camera roll
And not only tell my siz
when your cameras roll
I have been waiting so I can put CD on
I think that you are loud
but I need to carRy on
aLWAYS HAD TO CARRY ON
How can you be so trusting?
'Cause I have to be.
Don't you remember where
I was when I was found
less than a year outta
seminary, addicted, evicted,
And on the street.
If it wasn't for Pastor Levo finding me
and putting me back in the right spot,
I would've never start at that church.
I would've never met you.
And without you, I wouldn't
be the man that I am today.
- Is that right?
- That's right.
If you gimme a kiss, the jukebox plays.
- Oh, the jukebox.
- MM-HMM.
All right. Lemme see what you got.
- I love it.
- You Love me?
- Yes, I love you.
- I love you too.
You really do have a good eye.
- You think so?
- Absolutely.
Is this what you wanna do with your life?
Mm-hmm.
I wanna tell stories with
my photos. Stories like yours.
Could you pull up the
photos from the street
you took today?
- I wanna see those.
- Of course.
- What do you think?
- I think
you're gonna make a great photojournalist.
(kettle whistling)
It's just the kettle.
Kinda.
I really do miss a good cup
of tea. It's been a long time.
Years.
I don't drink tea.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I guess I shouldn't have presumed.
You know what?
It's okay. I'll drink it. That
was really sweet of you.
Do you mind if I ask you a question?
Shoot.
Did you used to have a job before?
I did.
I guess you could say I was
something like a scientist.
I researched human behavior,
specifically how people
react in adverse situations.
Okay. Like a psychologist.
I guess you could
say something like that.
That sounds really interesting.
You think so?
- Yeah. Do you miss it?
- No.
You can't miss that which was never lost.
What do you, what do you mean?
My work still continues.
- Really?
- Yeah.
- What you?
- Different sample,
same study.
I don't, I don't feel Okay.
Just relax.
Wait, wait. Did you
Don't be scared.
You know, you and me we're just alike.
Oh, yes, you are.
We both use
our art to show our truth.
Thank you so much for
sharing yours with me.
I can see exactly who you are
through those innocent brown eyes.
Now I'll return the favor
and show you my truth.
(suspenseful music)
That's great.
(door knocking)
Innocent.
- Hey, mommy.
- Don't this
(mom screams)
Fucking bitch.
Always fucking shit up.
I gotta be sweating and shit. Fuck wrong.
Sorry, I got something
for your ass. I'll be right back.
Detective Stevens. We found him.
- Found who?
- Big Hank.
- Where hell is he?
- The hospital? Come on.
Don't stop.
Right there. Right there.
Oh, oh. Baby.
Right there. Don't stop.
Come on. Don't stop.
Good evening, Reverend.
What the, what the fuck are you doing?
I'm just trying to show my appreciation
for your hospitality.
Carrie.
Forbidden fruits.
I'm so, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
I didn't want, I didn't want.
Nobody did, Carrie.
If you had a filth of force.
Well, I'm sure he has.
Well, at least I can only hope
he's come as hard for you.
What's wrong with
you? Why you doing this?
The same reason
anybody ever does anything.
Because I can.
Is this a robbery? You want money?
I can give you money. I
can give, gives you money.
I don't need your money.
Then what the fuck do you want?
I've spent a lot of time preparing
to express my masterpiece.
- Masterpiece?
- My art.
All the bodies, the victims.
It's all led up to this.
Understand.
I want to complete my masterpiece.
By the end of the night,
I'm gonna kill one mind, one
soul, and one body. (Laughs)
Aw, I don't you cry.
Don't you cry.
I can't believe you would do this.
Oh, well, believe it, honey.
I know something you don't know
and you might not believe it.
Do you wanna tell her or should I?
I don't know what you're talking about.
Oh, don't you do that.
You know exactly what I'm talking about.
Tell her about your little queen.
What's her name, Isaiah?
Shawn. (Laughs)
Aw, so sad.
And you thought you could trust him.
You think that you're gonna
turn me against my husband
for bringing up his past?
You got to try harder than that.
Challenge accepted.
Okay, now I'm gonna untie your feet.
If you try anything,
I'm gonna blow your
motherfucking brains out right here.
You understand? Don't you understand?
- Yes, yes.
- Good.
Now let's go see your daughter.
Don't fucking touch her.
Better not fucking touch her.
Say something. Now be
a good boy and shut the up.
I'm so sorry.
Let's go see your daughter now.
Okay.
(mom sobbing)
- Baby.
Baby. Wake up, baby.
Oh, relax. Relax. She's alive for now.
- You're a psycho.
- Aww. Thank you.
Okay. Enough of that. Come on, get up.
Let's go have a conversation
About what?
How I invite you into my home
and then you turn around and do this.
Brought me in.
Oh no, honey. This was inevitable.
Oh, so now you believe in faith.
Miss me with all that religious bullshit.
God didn't bring us together.
Technology did.
See someone with a name
as unique as innocence is
so easy to find on social media.
Look, you guys are so cute here.
Don't look at her. Yeah. See that one.
This one right here, though.
This one is my favorite.
How'd you, how'd you get that?
Yeah.
No, I actually envy you.
You have a good man, a nice family.
Kick ass home. I mean,
like this. This is amazing.
You truly are lucky.
You mean blessed?
No, I'm gonna stick with lucky.
I prayed for Isaiah.
God answered my prayer.
Maybe you are blessed and
God answered your prayers.
Tell you what, he doesn't
do that for everyone.
I think that sometimes
people don't have faith.
They don't believe.
Faith. Is that what it is?
Yeah, that's right. God hears you.
And he's always listening.
Whatever, Carrie.
Those people with faith
they'll see an answer to their prayer
then those without, they miss the message.
Shit, fucking bullshit.
So you just gonna sit up here and tell me
that if I'm homeless and
I pray to God for a job
and he doesn't give it to me,
it's because I don't have faith.
Is that what you saying?
The Bible also says that
faith without works is dead.
Okay, so either way it goes, I'm the one
to blame for my situation.
And God gets the praises.
You wanna fuck this?
Let's go.
Go? Go where?
Well, I need to finish a
job that I started earlier.
And because of you, I need more morphine.
I'm not going anywhere with you.
Okay, fine. You stay there.
No, no. I'll go. I'll go.
Don't. Don't hurt her. No.
You'll go?
Yes. Yes. Go. Just don't hurt my baby.
Please don't hurt my baby.
Okay. That's what I thought.
- That's what I thought.
- Okay.
Let's go.
Oh, almost forgot, Mrs. Rucker,
may I please borrow one
of your knives? (Laughs)
I'm just fucking with you.
I got enough in my bag.
Let's go.
- Get in the trunk.
- Please, don't
Carry, get your ass in the trunk.
Go get your ass in the trunk.
I'm be I got time schedule,
goddammit, get in the truck.
Watch your head.
(engine roaring)
Help.
Jesus, I need you
after all.
After all, your name is for your kingdom.
Please God, don't forsake me now.
We always talk about what they'll do
with a million dollars.
They don't, they don't know
about old freeway. Huh?
Freeway had a million
dollars. Me had Hank talking.
Sam came and messed it up.
Ride a little bit for old freeway.
It's the new freeway, you know. Fuck Hank.
He always ditching me.
So it's just me and you
tonight just saying to you.
Ooh, it's just me and you.
Just me and you.
It's just me and you
Just me and you
Oh. You scared the outta me.
Don't play like that.
Go fuck around and find out.
Shit, what you, what you
doing down here anyway?
Look, I'm sorry. You want a little swig?
Yeah. Okay. Look, come on.
I know a spot. (Suspenseful music)
Crazy.
(man screaming) (horn blaring)
Oh, Reverend Rock.
There you are. My
delicious chocolate lollipop.
Are you ready for round two?
Don't touch me.
Oh, come on.
Don't act like it wasn't the best head
you ever had.
Besides, now that Carrie's
tied up in the trunk of your car,
she can't fuck up the vibe.
What did you do to my wife.
Ugh. Settle down.
So did God answer your prayers?
Did he?
Is that what this is about?
Proven that God doesn't exist.
No.
I actually grew up in a Christian home,
went to church in
everything, believe it or not.
It's incredible how it formed
me to be who I am today.
Let me ask you something.
When did you know you were
supposed to be a minister?
How old were you?
I was 13 when I gave
my life to Christ, 24 when
I was called into ministry.
Thirteen, huh?
I was 16 when I killed my first victim
who was a boy I liked.
What did he do to
make you want to kill him?
Nothing. You're not
listening, Pastor Rucker.
I'm trying to get you to
understand that I know
what it's like to be called.
Saying God called you to kill that boy.
I'm saying that you
asked me if I believed in God
and I told you that I did.
The same God who called you, called me.
Oh, see, you don't understand.
Well, I'm gonna make you understand.
Just enough to keep you
relaxed so you're not a threat,
but alert enough to know
exactly what I'm about
to do to your family.
Now it's time to add my
first stroke to my masterpiece.
Innocent.
Thanks.
Yeah.
This way to start the weekend.
How many does that make?
- 10. Since March.
- Any info on the victim?
Not much. I mean, obviously homeless.
The one lady who would
speak with me said he goes
by the name of freeway.
Do you, do you think
that this could be another
victim of Big Hank?
I don't know.
- Hey, see these stab wounds?
- Mm-hmm.
See how they kind of angle
up upwards toward the throat?
Means whoever did this
was most likely shorter.
- Mummy.
- Rise and shine.
Miss Trudy, what are you
doing? What are you doing?
Why am I tied up? Why?
Oh, don't worry about that, darling.
It'll all be over soon enough.
Trudy, where are my parents?
Well, they're a little preoccupied
at the moment, but no worries.
I have prepared a nice meal
and we'll all sit down at the
table together as a family.
A family. What is wrong with you?
Wrong with me?
Well, it's actually quite a
few things wrong with me.
Oh, me.
But not the things you think.
You know, earlier you asked
me why I was homeless.
That's, that's, that's not what I meant.
I didn't, I didn't mean like that.
I was just interested in your story.
Then I'll tell you my story.
Let me ask you a question.
Has your father ever touched you
Touch me? What do you mean?
I mean, like inappropriately.
Of course not. No.
Mine's dead.
It was my stepfather.
I was 10 years old the first time.
He would wait for my mother to go to sleep
and he would come into my room.
He called me his pretty little princess.
And I was too young to realize that
a grown man, a father,
you should never, you should never
kiss a little girl's neck
or a little girl's collarbone
or a girl's lip,
little girl.
I tried to tell my mom, I did,
and think she would believe me.
I was about your age when
I finally stood up for myself.
- What did you do?
- Oh, I hurt him.
I hurt him to the point to
where he would never hurt
another person like that again.
No, No.
After that, you know, I
spent a couple years in juvie.
You know, one thing
led to another, and voila,
here I am.
Like, Judy, look, you
don't have to do this.
You have a good heart.
You have a good heart, Judy,
Your daddy probably
never touched you like that
because he doesn't
think you're pretty enough.
It's okay. We can't all be
daddy's pretty little princess.
Ooh, a makeover.
No. (Screaming)
Ah. See what she doing?
What?
(Innocent screaming) (phone ringing)
Ah. Oh, it's Helpy.
It's a little bit late for a
boy to be texting you,
don't you think?
What would your parents say?
- Oh no.
- What's the passcode?
- No.
- What's
No.
Right now?
Of course, now. You
know where the call it.
Like, okay. Okay. Okay.
(phone chimes) (Innocent crying)
It is a tragic scene
here at Railroad Tracks
in Third Ward, police have
confirmed that the victim,
a homeless victim, where going believed
to be in their thirties was found
with over 20 vicious stab wounds.
Investigators are treating
this case as a homicide
and are currently following several leads.
No one saw the attack take place.
The police are urging
anyone with information
to come forward as they
piece together the event that led
to this senseless act of violence.
Innocent.
Shit.
Innocent.
Innocent, Innocent.
Ah, hurry.
(knife clangs)
Sorry, sorry.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
(man crying)
Hey, what the fuck is going on, man? Hmm?
What the fuck is going on?
What's going on is
you're about to be charged
with assault, maybe murder.
Wait, wait, wait. Murder?
I didn't fucking kill nobody.
Let me guess. We got it
all wrong. You're being set up.
Like I said, I didn't touch nobody.
I didn't assault nobody,
and I am damn sure ain't kill nobody. Hm.
We have witnesses, Hank.
Ooh, those kids. Hm?
Those bastards ain't
show up until afterwards.
Wait a minute, Jesus.
Is that a confession?
I think it is.
Oh no.
That ain't what I'm saying.
Showing the post to tent.
She look familiar.
Is it ringing a bell?
What the fuck.
That you, Hank, that
you assaulting the victim.
That bitch ain't no victim.
Y'all don't know her like I know her.
Let me guess. She asked for it. Huh?
She wanted it.
She was asking for it, changed
her mind, maybe got upset.
So you attacked her.
Oh man.
I'm not saying it like that, man.
That's kind of what I'm hearing though.
But you not listening to me.
Okay, Hank, I'm listening.
(meal sizzling)
Delicious. Okay.
(fist thuds)
Reverend Rucker, you
managed to set yourself free.
- We will remember you.
- Oh, wouldn't you
like to know.
(body thuds) (man screams)
It's like a little bitch.
Can't even save your family.
He can't expect us to
believe that ridiculous story
that she tried to kill him.
I mean, I'd almost feel sorry
for the guy if he wasn't about
to get a one-way ticket
to three hots and a cot.
That's kind of a fucked up
thing to say. Don't you think?
It's not like it isn't true Detective.
I mean, sure, prison sucks,
but he's at least gonna
have four walls and a bed.
Think about the alternative.
He could be dead.
I mean, did you see his knife wounds?
Knife wounds?
- Doc. Doc?
- Yes. Yes. Detective.
What is it?
The homeless guy in
there, his, his wounds.
How did he get them?
- I told you a knife.
- No, no.
Not that it's. Here. Here.
The lacerations.
Oh yeah. Yes.
Did they happen the same way?
In fact, the exact same angle.
He was telling the truth.
Son of a bitch.
That means the woman is
not the victim, she's the killer.
The woman that was here earlier today.
- Yeah.
- That family took her home.
- Oh shit.
- Oh shit.
Nothing like a nice family dinner,
wouldn't you say, Pastor Rucker?
Would you like to lead us in prayer?
Oh, are you not talking to God now?
Come on Rev, give us
one just for all time's sake.
Go to hell.
Dear Lord, your word says
the thief comes to steal,
kill and destroy.
But I have come so you may have life
and have it in full.
Oh, you a clever motherfucker, huh?
- John 10:10.
- Seems fitting.
All right. Enough of this shit.
Let us eat.
It smells delicious, doesn't it?
Trudy, please, just
let me and my family go.
Can't do that.
I must complete my masterpiece.
It's delicious.
Okay, it's your turn.
Now. Open wide.
Eat, eat, bitch.
(suspenseful music)
(Innocent sobbing)
All right, pastor, your turn.
Open. Open your mouth.
Ah. (Chuckles)
So it's an old family
recipe, okay, in a sense.
And I think that you will enjoy it.
Bite, bite.
Come on. I promise it's good.
A little bit more. Come
on, gets a little bit.
Aren't you glad Toby
could join us for dinner?
Toby?
Oh, you don't have to
look too far. It's right here.
(all coughing)
Toby, it's sick. You're
sick. You're so sick.
Aw, thank you.
See, if it hadn't been for you,
I would've just cut out his heart.
You know, trust me, there's
no coming back from that.
So you are welcome.
How could you, how could you do that?
Damn.
After everything you've been through?
(Judy laughs)
Wait, wait.
You believe me?
Oh, honey, my father never touched me.
No, no. He might be a bit of
an asshole, yes, big asshole.
But all in all, he's a really good guy.
I mean, he paid for my college.
Even even helped me through grad school.
Aw, Innocent.
You really shouldn't be so trusting,
especially with random
homeless people you just met.
Yeah, and then the kicker,
convincing your parents to take me in.
If I had the chance and
the choice to do it again,
you best believe I would.
Well, surprise. I'm not homeless.
Never have been. Nope.
It was all just a disguise
so that I could really fit in,
you know, with my prey.
A wolf.
This is 45 L15. We are en
route to 12597, 10 minutes.
We're gonna need some backup.
(siren blaring)
You killed those six homeless people.
Six. I killed dozens. I'm
a fucking angel of death.
It's okay. Oh, it's okay.
When God get to killing
people, it's okay everybody.
Oh, God's will.
What you're doing is not the will of God.
Everything I'm doing is in God's will.
He's the one who created
me. He made me like this.
He made me a killer.
And fortunate for me, no
one cares about the homeless.
I mean, people say they do, but
They are people.
Disposable people.
You walk by them people every day
and no one ever engages, right?
No, 'cause y'all don't give
a fuck about their stories.
That's not true.
I've been fighting to make
things better for the homeless.
You have no idea what I've done,
the sacrifices I've made.
Oh, but I know exactly what you've done.
The question is, does Carrie
know what you've done?
What you and Penny have done.
Isaiah, what is she talking about?
- She, she's talking nonsense.
- Oh am I?
Wow.
How about we examine evidence?
Let's see here.
Thanks. Please.
So if you look here,
you see?
Read that right there.
Please. No, stop.
Isaiah, is this saying
what I think it's saying.
- I can explain.
- Yes, explain,
Pastor Reverend good for
nothing. Trifling sack of shit.
Minister Rucker, explain how you
and Penny have been
funneling money from the church
to pay cricket City officials.
Explain that
Dad.
Beb, please.
It was the homeless shelter.
Everything was wrapped up
in bureaucracy and corruption.
We needed ordinances and permits.
But the other real estate
companies had the advantage
because they were willing to give money
to special causes under the table.
So you chose to be corrupt with them.
The people needed us, they needed me.
You stole from the church,
you stole from God's people.
I did what I had to do.
You should have trusted God.
I did trust God.
Year after year I trusted
him. I prayed to him.
I was faithful to him.
And all I wanted was for
him to be faithful to me,
to trust me, to open the doors
so I could better serve His people,
His people.
No, obstacle after
obstacle, barrier after barrier
until I took matters into my own hands.
I got this shelter built me.
Said, don't talk to me about trusting God.
It was all me.
And apparently Penny.
Maybe, you know, don't understand.
I can't even look at you.
Please God. No.
Why? While we listen.
While we listen. This is all my fault.
Everything happened because of me.
I could have prevented
this. Yes, it is my fault.
No, baby. No, it's not
your fault. It's her fault.
It's all her fault. It truth is fault.
Oh, I can not have imagined
tonight going more physical.
It's going to be okay, baby.
You know what?
We're almost there.
Gonna be fine, baby.
The point that I complete my masterpiece.
One mind, one soul, and one body.
You want this body?
Fine. Take it, you coward.
You know, you've
been talking shit all night.
And you been hide
behind that gun all night.
You are right.
(gun firing) (thunder clapping)
Carrie, Carrie.
The fuck did you do?
Aw, don't cry.
My masterpiece is complete.
One mind, one soul,
and one body.
- Police.
- Gun, gun
Drop your weapon.
(gun firing)
Dispatch, send immediate medical support
to my physician, asap.
I got you right.
You okay?
Okay.
Fuck, I lost her. Goddammit.
Dispatch, I need an APB.
I got an African American
woman with braids, green shirt,
black pants, and a backpack.
I want everybody on this.
(woman panting)
Shit.
(engine roaring)
(fist thuds)
Stop, stop, help me, please,
please help me.
Please help me. I just need a ride.
I just gotta get outta here, please.
Hey, hey. What's going on? Are you okay?
He beat me. He is trying to kill me.
I gotta get outta here
before he finds me. Please.
Hey, listen, this, this,
this isn't my car, so, so,
so I don't know if I can
give you a, a ride, but,
but I, I could call 911.
No, no, they, they're
not gonna do anything.
All they're gonna do
is send me back to him.
= Hey, hey, everything's okay.
Everything's gonna be okay.
I'm gonna give you a ride. Okay.
And where do you need to go?
I have family on the side.
(man grunting)
Thank you. Couldn't
have done this without you.
(engine roaring)
Somebody help. Help.
Somebody help me.

You do this all the time to here.

Will a burger work?
Alright, have a good day.
(suspenseful music)
Oh, we can fight her.
Get you ass over here.
(fists thuds) (woman screams)
(suspenseful music continues)
We begin this morning With
yet another heartbreaking story
from our city's streets.
Another homeless individual
has been found murdered,
adding to the grim total
that continues to rise.
This latest victim, whose
identity is yet to be confirmed,
was discovered early this
morning on the city's south side.
This makes the fourth and fifth victim
- Hey, Baby.
- In just the past four weeks.
Hey, mom.
A little more about this early, isn't it?
By those living on the street.
Community advocates have more protection.
It's the news, mom,
besides, don't you want me
to be informed?
I'm just saying,
you need to be careful what
you're feeding your mind,
especially first thing in the morning.
Fine.
- Hey.
- Hey, baby.
Hey, dad.
Okay, what did I miss?
Not much. Mom thinks I'm
working my brain with the news.
Well, gotta stay informed.
See, mom, that's exactly what I said.
But still, you don't
want to feed your brain
that negativity so early.
Dad. I am gonna be home late.
I have to work on my project.
What project?
Her little photojournalism thingy.
I told you, daddy,
I'm focusing on the
abject poverty in our city.
Don't you remember?
Oh, right. Taking
pictures of the homeless.
Maybe you should wait until
I get home. I can go with you.
No, dad, I'm not a baby. I'll be fine.
No one is saying you are.
We're just saying with
all that stuff going on.
And that's why it's so important.
I mean, they already have it bad enough
and now somebody is preying on them.
It's sick.
Child, it's just a school newspaper.
What your mother it means is.
Dad, stop it.
I know exactly what she means.
Oh, I said what I said.
What?
- It means a lot to her.
- You're too soft on her.
I'm too soft on the both of y'all.
If you know what's good
for you, happy wife, happy life.
Nah, I'm more of a happy
man as God's playing kind of guy.
Hmm. Is that right?
Well, I have a surprise
for you when we get home.
- Oh really?
- Oh yeah.
(camera ticking)
Innocent, how long we gonna be out here.
Until I get all my shots.
You see how that doesn't
answer my question, right?
This is fun, Toby. Come on.
You come on.
Listen, I only came down here
so you wouldn't be here by yourself.
And I appreciate it,
but what good would the
judge should be if I didn't get
the pictures that I needed?
These homeless people,
they gonna beat your ass
if they catch you trying
to take their picture.
They'll never know I'm here.
You don't think they see
that expensive ass camera
you got?
- Mm. That reminds me.
- What?
I gotta turn on my hotspot.
You know the camera
only ought to uploads picks
when it's connected to the WiFi.
Oh, okay. I get it.
So if it gets stolen, you'll
still have your photos.
- Mm-hmm.
- Smart.
I know, but I don't
have to worry about that
because you'll protect me.
Right, lover Boy?
Shit, I'll show your ass which way to run
and you better keep up.
I could always outrun you, Toby.
That's count. Maybe when
we were like nine years old.
Nine years old. Okay, whatever.
But for reals, if I left you down here,
Ms. Carrie would kill me.
I'm more afraid of her than
I am of any of these people.
Well, she doesn't think
I should be down here.
She's right.
No, she doesn't understand.
But when she sees it's in
the newspaper, she'll get it.
It's just a school newspaper.
- You sound just like her.
- Great minds.
Great minds!
- Man, come on, let's go.
- I hate her. I hate her.
(door knocking)
- Come in.
- Good morning, pastor.
Oh sister Penny.
You look nice today.
Thank you.
These expense reports are ready for
the trustee board meeting.
I thought you might wanna look over them
before I turn them in.
- Anything interesting?
- They're expense reports.
How interesting could they be?
The demand for the expansion
of the shelter is growing.
It's gonna cost a little
more than we budgeted.
So you may want to talk to
them about diverting more funds.
I mean, we can try it,
but you know how they are.
And then after that, we're gonna have
to draft up new proposals
for the city, the county,
and the local municipalities.
And also next week you have a meeting
with the city comptroller's office
and the mayor's legal counsel.
You okay, pastor?
Oh, I mean, yes, of course I'm here.
Honestly, I don't know.
You ever feel like God is testing you?
Sure. I mean sometimes.
What, what's the matter?
I don't know. It's just
this homeless situation.
I mean, we've been
blessed with a solid team
and we have more than enough resources
to build two or three new shelters.
But there's all these politics
and bureaucracy in the way.
Yeah, but that's out of your power.
I mean, but that's what
I'm saying. God is in control.
Right? And he cares for the least of these.
- [Penny] He does.
- Right.
Then why would he make it so hard for us
to look after these people?
I just feel like I'm on a hamster wheel.
Roadblock after roadblock. It's too much.
Isaiah, listen to me.
You have led the church
through ups and downs before.
This is no different. Okay?
I'm confident that the Lord is going
to grant you all the answers
that you're looking for.
You just have to hold fast to your faith.
Faith.
I'm sorry, Penny, I didn't
mean to drop that on you.
No, it's okay.
I guess a man of the cloth
isn't supposed to have doubts.
Right?
Well, whoever said
that has obviously never
been a man of the cloth.
- Penny?
- Yeah.
What'd I do without you?
I have no idea.
Okay, I'm gonna get
started on these proposals
and then I'll send you my notes via email.
You might have to burn
the midnight oil on this one,
but we got this.
Okay?
Okay.
- Penny?
- Yeah.
Before you go, if anything comes up
or if you need anything,
just gimme a call or a text.
- Okay, Isaiah.
- Bye, Penny.
Bye.
Tell me how to do me.
Ain't never I been doing me.
You know what I'm saying?
Tell me how to do. Me either.
Well, well, well, what
do we have here? Huh?
Ain't that woman a long?
Hey, it's a like freeway.
I'm just being a little friendly.

She don't look like she need us, man,
I don't even think she could talk.
You doing too much of
it. Huh? I think she like me.
Ain't that right, cutie

Oh, that's where we going.

Next time you want to be hospitable

Don't mind that cough. I just

I can't believe we've

I know.
I can't wait to get some food with you.
- Hold on.
- Yeah.
Let me see that photo.
Oh gosh.
Oh wow.

- That looks really good.
Style. You think so?
Hell yeah. You got an off of this?
Thank you. It's gonna

I'm gonna give him something.
Excuse me, sir.

I'm gonna show you something.
Are you sure about this?
Thank you very much. Is that me?

Thank you very much.
You have a nice night. Okay.
Toby, why are you being so extra?
I just need a couple more pictures. Okay.
Can you stop acting scared.
- Scared?
- Yes. Scared.
Did you forget about the
murder out here in these streets?
No, I haven't forgotten about the murder.
And I also haven't
forgotten who the murder is
preying on, Toby.
This is important. Take a look around.
They have nothing.
Okay? Okay. You're right.
Just promise me you won't get me killed.
Maybe. Just kidding.
- Of course. I promise.
- Thank you.
Oh, you ain't going nowhere with that.
You stand right here. Hear
me. Oh. Oh. Come here.
- Come here.
- Get off of me.
Come here.
Oh, you bit me my chest,
you freaking motherfucker.
Oh, I knew you was nasty.
Come your ass. Come here. Gimme
(fists thuds)
No, you around a fight there.
Oh, come here. Come here. Oh. Oh.
I kill you, bitch. Huh?
Help, help.
Innocence.
That's your back with me.
Hey, stop, stop.
You mind your business.
You, bitch, you stabbed me.
Leave alone. Go away. Leave alone.
Oh. I'm coming back for the head.
Go away.
- Leave her alone.
- Go away.
Ma'am. Ma'am. Ma'am, are you okay? Ma'am?
Can you, can you speak?
Come on, let's go.
We can't just leave her out here.
I told you, I told you we
shouldn't have come down here
in the first place and now this?
She's gonna die to just call the cops.
That's not our problem.
Tody, just call the
cops. She's not breathing.
Yes, we have a lady.
She's not breathing.
She's down. She can't breathe.
Help.
- Innocent.
- Innocent.
- Innocent, baby.
- Mom.
- Oh baby. Okay.
- Yes, I'm fine. I'm fine.
- Sure.
- Yes. Yes.
What happened?
I mean, it all happened so fast.
We saved a woman's life.
- You did what?
- Woman, please.
You gotta do something.
- No. He tried to rape me.
- Ma'am.
- No, he tried to kill me.
- I know, I understand.
Please just, just give
us time. We'll find him.
Bye, Mr. and Mrs.
Worker. My, my dad's here.
Bye, sweetie.
- What is, what's going on.
- Ma'am?
Hi - Sir.
- Hey, how's it going?
- Detective Stevens.
- Okay.
- Is this your daughter?
Carrie Rucker and
Isaiah Rucker, my husband.
Yes, this is our daughter
and that was her friend.
Okay, well, your daughter was part
of a assault earlier today.
She was just there. She
helped out our victim over here.
So we brought her down to the hospital just
to make sure everything's okay.
But she's not hurt.
Now, our victim, on the
other hand, she can't,
or most likely won't say too much.
Can you blame her
for not trusting the police?
Innocent?
- Hey, baby.
- Show some respect.
No, no. It's, it's okay. It's cool.
It's the relationship between police
and homeless is tenuous to say the least.
And even with the murders going on,
they're still a little bit reluctant.
But at this point we gotta
focus on the matter at hand.
So is there anything you can
tell me about the man in the alley?
The man in the alley.
The man in the alley.
He was, he was short.
He was African American.
I don't, I don't know. I have pictures.
I have pictures. A second.
Okay. Look, look.
Here he is. Oh, whoa. Well, kind of. Okay.
I hope it helps.
No, this, this, it's perfect.
But I'm gonna need the
memory card for evidence.
- Wait, what? You can do that.
- Is she in trouble?
- Dad? It's okay.
- Baby. Are you sure?
Yes. I wanna help.
I don't think so.
Besides all the photos are
backed up in the cloud anyways.
- Thank you.
- All right.
And I have your information,
but if you think of anything
else, please just let me know.
Thank you.
- Thanks again.
- Thank you.
Y'all have a good one. Thank you.
You should have come straight home.
I told you I had an assignment.
You had us so worried.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Not as sorry as you gonna be.
We are just happy that you're okay.
Isaiah, don't downplay the situation.
She needs to understand the seriousness
and that she could have
put herself in danger.
I mean, I agree, but maybe we should
talk about this some, in some other place.
- Fine.
- Hmm?
Let's go.
Alright, come on. Let's go.
Hey. No, no, no, no.
We can't go. Yeah, I have
to make sure she's okay.
She's
- Are you the family?
- No, sir.
I believe she's homeless.
Got it.
That can explain why she was
reluctant to give us anything.
She would barely tell us her, her name.
- Is she okay?
- She, she's fine.
She's going to be fine.
The injuries that she
have are very, very minor.
We will be discharging her
out very, very soon though.
Discharging her.
You mean sending her
back out on the street?
I'm very, very, very, very sorry.
There's no other medical
attention really cried for for her.
What are you suggesting?
We can't keep her here though.
She has nowhere to go, mom.
She can go to a shelter.
No. I checked the
numbers earlier with Penny.
That is our church. Your
church that built that shelter.
And you're telling me that they won't make
an exception even for you.
I mean, it doesn't
work like that, Carrie?
No special treatment.
Well, what about other shelters?
I mean, I mean, tonight is
one of the highest demand days.
I don't think so.
I dunno. I dunno about this.
We have to do something.
Or is all that doing good
for the least of these, just talk.
- Innocence.
- Innocence, baby
Innocence.
Welcome.
(phone ringing)
This is Penny. I gotta take this.
All right, Trudy, make yourself at home.
Mom, do we sell those clothes we were
gonna give to the shelter?
Yeah. They're in the closet upstairs.
Can I go check and
see if there's anything
that'll fit Ms. Trudy?
Yeah, sure.
You know your daughter saved my life.
She's a good girl with a big heart.
Sometimes too big. I
mean, she's just a teenager.
She shouldn't be out in the streets trying
to be a hero.
Look, I know you don't want me here.
I overheard your
conversation at the hospital.
It wasn't like that.
No, it's cool. I understand.
I wouldn't have invited me
either. I mean, look at me.
I'm toe up from the flow up.
But in all honesty, I
really do appreciate it.
Thank you.
Listen, I don't mean
to be insensitive to you
or your situation, but I don't know you.
I have Miss Trudy's clothes.
Hey Innocence, we trying to
show Miss Trudy on guest room.
Come on, Ms. Trudy.
Isn't it a little late for
Penny to be calling?
Well, she gave me
an update on the shelter.
And a text wasn't sufficient.
- You good?
- Honestly, no, I'm not good.
Because it's feeling like
you're bending over backwards
to a accommodate a whole
lot of other women right now.
Oh, come on, Carrie. That's not fair.
Part of my job, part of my
calling is to be a servant, babe.
You know, when you marry me, you have
to share me with other people.
- And now my house too.
- It just wasn't right.
Look, a space will come available
in the morning at the shelter.
We can place her there.
She'll be fine. We'll be fine.
And things will go back
to being normal. Okay?
(footsteps clanging)
She's settling in, and
about to shower too.
Probably been a while.
Just keep an eye on her.
(door knocking)
- Yes.
- Dinner is almost ready.
Okay. I'll be out in a few minutes.
- Can I help?
- No, thanks. We got it.
Ms. Trudy, do you wanna see my photos?
You took all those downtown today?
Mm-hmm. I did.
All right. Time to eat.
(gentle music)
Father God, Matthew 25:40 says,
and the king will apply, Truly, I tell you,
those who have done the least
for these brothers and sisters
of mine did for me.
That is our charge.
But not often our practice.
Today, we thank you for
giving us the opportunity
to share what we have
with another of your children.
Thank you for the food
we are about to receive,
for the nourishment of our bodies.
In Jesus' name, and for his sake
and his grace, Amen.
- Amen.
- Amen.
Everything looks so good.
I bet you're pretty hungry, huh?
Yeah. I just love the taste of meat.
I, I mean, steak. It's really
good. Thank, thank you.
Well, thank you.
So, you really do have a beautiful home.
Thank you. It, it
wasn't always this nice.
Isaiah and I come from
very humble beginnings.
We had to fight and scrape
for everything we have.
Everything.
- So you're fighters, huh?
- We're hard workers.
It would appears so.
So what do you do for a living,
if you don't mind me asking?
Well, I'm the lead pastor of a church.
- A man of faith.
- A family of faith? Yes.
And what about you, Ms. Rucker?
Do you work at the church too?
Oh, no. My job is much more boring.
I work in HR, but I'm
volunteering at the church
each and every week.
- Children's ministry?
- No, security.
What she means is that she coordinates
with the greeters and the ushers.
And part of their job is to wash the door.
Keep the undesirables out, right?
Exactly.
No, that's not it. I
mean, all the welcome.
We just can't be too sure
or too careful, should I say.
It makes sense.
It's been, what, about 20
years since I started New Hope
Church to think we only
began with five members.
Yeah. Year in and year
out. God has blessed us.
Our congregation and
the communities we serve.
Can't relate.
I had a rough life.
Well, how did you become homeless?
Innocence.
Innocence, come on baby.
Don't be rude.
I wasn't trying to be rude.
I'm just simply interested in her story.
I'm sorry, Ms. Trudy.
You have nothing to apologize for.
Let's just say life has been unkind.
It doesn't have to be.
I'm hoping to bring more awareness to
how the system has
made it difficult for you
and for others like you.
You really are a precious young woman.
You see the world through such pure eyes.
What's wrong with that?
Nothing. It's just, it's a little naive.
- Excuse me.
- Don't take it like that.
Naivete is good in children, idealism.
You can believe that the
world will be a better place.
Honestly, I, I envy young innocence.
I mean, the world can be
a better place if people just
pull their weight and put
their hands to the plow just
One if more people lend a helping hand.
Can I ask to a question, Trudy?
- Shoot.
- Oh, are you a believer?
- Dad?
- It's no judgment.
- It's just a question.
- Stop.
I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.
I'm not uncomfortable. It's okay.
I, I actually welcome this conversation.
I believe in God, just not
so sure he believes in me.
Are you offended?
No. Not offended at all.
We just want you to be
clear about God's love for you.
Oh, I'm clear. Believe me.
I understand better than you think.
- Really?
- Absolutely.
I mean, God brought us here today. Right?
Exactly.
It's truly a blessing to be here.
If you didn't come along when you did, I,
I just don't get very many
opportunities like this.
Good food, company,
clean clothes, a bed.
Thank you.
- You deserve it.
- How do you know?
What do you mean?
How do you know that someone deserves,
I don't know, say kindness?
Well, Christ teaches
us to be kind to all our
brothers and sisters.
No matter what.
No matter what.
- What about evil?
- What about it?
I've just seen some really evil things.
Evil people
On the streets, I'm sure you have.
Yeah, like that man who tried to hurt you
and take advantage of you.
Exactly.
Makes you wonder if
there's people in the world
who deserve to receive
kindness at face value.
Okay, well, praise God
we haven't run into anyone like that yet.
- Who wants ice cream? I do.
- I do.
It's sherbert.
Okay. I like sherbert. I can do that.
Yay.
What flavor is it?
Orange, duh.
Alright. That's my girl. (Laughs)
So like I was saying, so I
had a leg bust wide open.
I'm talking from the east side to the west.
I'm giving shorty the time of her life.
When she look at me. You know what she say?
What you say?
You sure you know what you doing?
- Huh?
- This a real fine engine.
You done fired it up?
(all laughs)
No. What that, that's
what she saying. Huh?
Oh my mama, bro.
So I look between her
legs. Look that dead eyes.
I said I could tell nobody changed the oil.
And this in a motherfucker wild.
I done gave you lying.
What? No, Tim. I lying.
Hey.
The only thing I be lie about
is lying down these holes.
You know what I'm saying? Lying down.
- Saying bitch.
- Damn, Hank.
What the hell happened to you?
Huh? Y'all seen that bitch?
- Oh, what?
- Who? Who?
What the?
You know what bitch I'm talking about.
Oh, that fine as bag lady
that been around here lately?
- Huh?
- Bag lady.
That fine. I ain't gonna lie. She fine.
Where she at? Huh?
I don't fucking know. Huh?
Y'all know where she at? Huh?
Tell that bitch when I see her
I'm gonna slit motherfucking throat.
I ain't gonna lie, Hank.
You might have to chill, bro.
Like bird on the street,
police looking for your ass.
I don't give a fuck.
You, you need to get
that checked out there.
Don't fucking touch me.
Hey, don't talk to him like that.
You better get the fuck out my face.
I ain't scared of you will hank.
Hey ain't big Hank.
I ain't gonna lie, the
only thing big on him
is his attitude.
You know? I already don't like him.
He ain't nothing big on that boy.
I do not like that boy.
Look at, look at him.
I cut him.
I hope they cut the other side.
He ain't be no good at all. (Laughs)
Keeping limping pimping.
Your leg gonna be dead like mine.
- Lose legged.
- Ain't be no good.
Look, all I'm saying is
that this generation
has zero attention span.
Now, that's something I can agree with.
All their social media,
it's killing their minds.
Do you have a different perspective, Trudy?
Perspective? Nah.
That's not true.
Everyone has a perspective, miss Trudy?
Yeah, what do you think?
I, I don't know. It
just all seems so trivial.
It's hard to see anything
other than what's in front of you.
When you've seen what I've seen.
- Hardships.
- Deaths,
bodies lying in the streets.
Innocent, baby, I think
you should go upstairs.
Mom, I'm almost an adult.
No, Innocent, mommy's right.
Seeing the death of a body. That's sad.
But witnessing the death of a mind,
it's truly heartbreaking.
- Heartbreaking. Huh?
- Mm-hmm.
Though the worst would
be to see a soul die,
don't you think, Pastor Rucker?
I mean, sure.
The Lord would desire
that none of his sheep
find themselves in a wilderness.
For I'm the good shepherd
who lay down his life
for the sheep, for the hired
hand is not a shepherd.
For when he sees the wolf coming,
he abandons the sheep and runs away.
John, chapter 11.
So are you a shepherd
Pastor Rucker or a hired hand?
I would never abandon my flock.
- That's admirable.
- What about you, Trudy?
Are you a sheep or you a wolf?
Well, I'll take these.
- Oh no, you don't have to.
- Oh, it's okay.
It's the least I can do.
- Thank you.
- You are welcome.
(phone ringing)
Penny. What you got?
Oh, that's fantastic. Okay.
We will make the arrangements.
All right. Thank you. Penny.
What'd she say?
There's a bed open at the shelter.
That's great. This
will be so good for her.
They'll get her the help she needs.
(suspenseful music)
Why are you going through our drawers?
I, I, I was just looking for
a sponge to wash the bowls.
I hope I wasn't outta line.
Oh, you must certainly are outta line.
I get that you're being thankful.
But this, this isn't appropriate.
My apologies. I was just
trying to make myself at home.
I guess I'll pack my things
and get out of your hair.
- Trudy. It's okay.
- No, it's not okay.
I'm sorry that I got agitated.
But when you're guessing
someone's home, it's impolite to go
through their things.
Next time just ask.
Well, I guess you don't
have to worry about it
next time, right?
It would seem Penny found
a spot for me at the shelter.
She did. We'll give you a
ride and get you all settled in.
Well, thank you guys so
much for your hospitality.
Dinner was amazing.
And I haven't had sherbert ice
cream since I was a teenager,
so thank you.
Was it as good as you remember?
Better?
Honestly, the thing I
remember most about that day
is it's the first time I
ever played spades.
What? What did I say?
You said the magic words, spades.
Dad, mom, can we play please?
I don't know. We, we should
be getting her to the shelter.
Mom. Come on. It's
always just the three of us.
You never have a four.
Come on, Carrie, please.
- Come on, Carrie.
- Ah, okay. Okay.
Innocence to the table.
Dang. I call D for a partner.
You got a be girl. I'll get the cart.
Well, I guess it's just you and me.
Yes it is.
So what you got Carrie?
- Hmm. Man. Three tops.
- Damn, that's it.
Language. We got a
minor at the table, remember.
- Mom, I'm not a child.
- Girl, you are a child.
First is the D-word and next
thing you gonna be walking
around talking like you Cat Williams.
Wow. The D word.
Nobody even knows who Cat Williams is.
We know who Cat Williams is.
Whatever. Whatever.
You know what I'm going for nine.
Nine. Dad, what? Are you sure?
- Nine.
- Look, I don't even know
why we even playing this hand.
We already know. Gonna win.
Well, you better wear that I with pride.
Oh, well. Ah. Where you going?
I need to go grab my
things. I got about 10 minutes.
I'll be right back, okay.
And when I come back, it's time to go.
You know where to find me.
Make sure you keep in touch.
Okay? Well gimme a hug at least.
Thank you so much for everything.
- Stay safe.
- I'll try.
Whoa. Time really got
away from us. Want a drink?
- Sure.
- All right.
When the world says cheers.
So do you ever get that itch?
- Itch?
- What do you mean?
Well, you know exactly what I mean.
I mean, you've been married
practically your whole life.
Nah, I'm a man of faith
that you so eloquently put it.
Besides even if I wanted
to, who would've the time?
So you wanted to, I mean, you haven't
always been a man of faith.
High and mighty.
I'm not high and mighty.
So you've thought
about it. Never acted on it.
No. I'm just clean as a whistle.
I don't believe that.
You ain't never stepped
out on her boring ass?
- Yeah.
- Not once.
She's not boring. She
does have a nice ass though.
- There it is.
- That what is
The lust?
This is silly.
I don't even, I, I
shouldn't even be talking
to you like this. I don't know you.
But don't act like you don't like it.
The danger, tiptoeing
up to the line of taboo.
But why does it matter anyway?
You're not gonna see me after today, right?
- Okay. Cards on the table.
- Cards on the table.
Cards on the table.
I want to have something with someone else.
But that was before Carrie.
I once had something with someone else.
That's so clinical. Come on Pastor Rock.
Was it good?
- It was real good.
- So what happened?
She had an opportunity
to take a pastoral job
in another city.
Oh, church lady.
Yeah. It was a long time ago.
It was the past. I'm
happy with my life now.
Are you?
So we're good to go.
Hey, babe.
I was thinking it's getting pretty late
and it sounds like a storm is brewing out.
Maybe Trudy should stay here tonight.
(thunder clapping)
What?
I mean, we were already planning a habit
and the, we know the guest
room is already made up.
We just take it in the morning.
Fine.
Gimme some of that brown.
Like a ladies bad bitches now.
Gimme some of that. Yak.
I'm gonna show you how to, eh?
Yeah. Oh. Huh?
You hear that?
Sound like coming from over
there? Over there? Over there?
Yeah. I'm, I'm gonna check it out.
You stay. Well, you can't go nowhere.
No, I can't move.
What the fuck? It's somebody in there.
- Help me, please.
- Oh shit.
- Hurry big up.
- It's Hunk.
Please.
Hey, free. Oh.
Just because things don't fit
inside your perfect little box
doesn't mean that it's wrong.
She's been through a lot, Carrie.
No, that's what I'm saying.
She doesn't talk like a homeless
person though. You know?
She talks like a
professor or a philosopher,
even a theologian.
You don't think that's strange?
I mean, I would imagine she
ain't always been homeless.
Perhaps she attended college
before she fell on hard times.
You can't judge her.
(camera clicking)
(Innocent screams)
I am really, really sorry.
I should have asked you first.
You're right. Did you
even get my best side?
Well, did you?
Oh, come on. What are
you waiting for? I got you.
So what are you thinking?
- Sit right there?
- You want me right here?
Yeah. All right.
But what's life without a risk
Like what's Mike without a chip
I guess I'll never know
Pass a cup, I need off
You got me going through my camera roll
And not only tell my siz
when your cameras roll
I have been waiting so I can put CD on
I think that you are loud
but I need to carRy on
aLWAYS HAD TO CARRY ON
How can you be so trusting?
'Cause I have to be.
Don't you remember where
I was when I was found
less than a year outta
seminary, addicted, evicted,
And on the street.
If it wasn't for Pastor Levo finding me
and putting me back in the right spot,
I would've never start at that church.
I would've never met you.
And without you, I wouldn't
be the man that I am today.
- Is that right?
- That's right.
If you gimme a kiss, the jukebox plays.
- Oh, the jukebox.
- MM-HMM.
All right. Lemme see what you got.
- I love it.
- You Love me?
- Yes, I love you.
- I love you too.
You really do have a good eye.
- You think so?
- Absolutely.
Is this what you wanna do with your life?
Mm-hmm.
I wanna tell stories with
my photos. Stories like yours.
Could you pull up the
photos from the street
you took today?
- I wanna see those.
- Of course.
- What do you think?
- I think
you're gonna make a great photojournalist.
(kettle whistling)
It's just the kettle.
Kinda.
I really do miss a good cup
of tea. It's been a long time.
Years.
I don't drink tea.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I guess I shouldn't have presumed.
You know what?
It's okay. I'll drink it. That
was really sweet of you.
Do you mind if I ask you a question?
Shoot.
Did you used to have a job before?
I did.
I guess you could say I was
something like a scientist.
I researched human behavior,
specifically how people
react in adverse situations.
Okay. Like a psychologist.
I guess you could
say something like that.
That sounds really interesting.
You think so?
- Yeah. Do you miss it?
- No.
You can't miss that which was never lost.
What do you, what do you mean?
My work still continues.
- Really?
- Yeah.
- What you?
- Different sample,
same study.
I don't, I don't feel Okay.
Just relax.
Wait, wait. Did you
Don't be scared.
You know, you and me we're just alike.
Oh, yes, you are.
We both use
our art to show our truth.
Thank you so much for
sharing yours with me.
I can see exactly who you are
through those innocent brown eyes.
Now I'll return the favor
and show you my truth.
(suspenseful music)
That's great.
(door knocking)
Innocent.
- Hey, mommy.
- Don't this
(mom screams)
Fucking bitch.
Always fucking shit up.
I gotta be sweating and shit. Fuck wrong.
Sorry, I got something
for your ass. I'll be right back.
Detective Stevens. We found him.
- Found who?
- Big Hank.
- Where hell is he?
- The hospital? Come on.
Don't stop.
Right there. Right there.
Oh, oh. Baby.
Right there. Don't stop.
Come on. Don't stop.
Good evening, Reverend.
What the, what the fuck are you doing?
I'm just trying to show my appreciation
for your hospitality.
Carrie.
Forbidden fruits.
I'm so, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
I didn't want, I didn't want.
Nobody did, Carrie.
If you had a filth of force.
Well, I'm sure he has.
Well, at least I can only hope
he's come as hard for you.
What's wrong with
you? Why you doing this?
The same reason
anybody ever does anything.
Because I can.
Is this a robbery? You want money?
I can give you money. I
can give, gives you money.
I don't need your money.
Then what the fuck do you want?
I've spent a lot of time preparing
to express my masterpiece.
- Masterpiece?
- My art.
All the bodies, the victims.
It's all led up to this.
Understand.
I want to complete my masterpiece.
By the end of the night,
I'm gonna kill one mind, one
soul, and one body. (Laughs)
Aw, I don't you cry.
Don't you cry.
I can't believe you would do this.
Oh, well, believe it, honey.
I know something you don't know
and you might not believe it.
Do you wanna tell her or should I?
I don't know what you're talking about.
Oh, don't you do that.
You know exactly what I'm talking about.
Tell her about your little queen.
What's her name, Isaiah?
Shawn. (Laughs)
Aw, so sad.
And you thought you could trust him.
You think that you're gonna
turn me against my husband
for bringing up his past?
You got to try harder than that.
Challenge accepted.
Okay, now I'm gonna untie your feet.
If you try anything,
I'm gonna blow your
motherfucking brains out right here.
You understand? Don't you understand?
- Yes, yes.
- Good.
Now let's go see your daughter.
Don't fucking touch her.
Better not fucking touch her.
Say something. Now be
a good boy and shut the up.
I'm so sorry.
Let's go see your daughter now.
Okay.
(mom sobbing)
- Baby.
Baby. Wake up, baby.
Oh, relax. Relax. She's alive for now.
- You're a psycho.
- Aww. Thank you.
Okay. Enough of that. Come on, get up.
Let's go have a conversation
About what?
How I invite you into my home
and then you turn around and do this.
Brought me in.
Oh no, honey. This was inevitable.
Oh, so now you believe in faith.
Miss me with all that religious bullshit.
God didn't bring us together.
Technology did.
See someone with a name
as unique as innocence is
so easy to find on social media.
Look, you guys are so cute here.
Don't look at her. Yeah. See that one.
This one right here, though.
This one is my favorite.
How'd you, how'd you get that?
Yeah.
No, I actually envy you.
You have a good man, a nice family.
Kick ass home. I mean,
like this. This is amazing.
You truly are lucky.
You mean blessed?
No, I'm gonna stick with lucky.
I prayed for Isaiah.
God answered my prayer.
Maybe you are blessed and
God answered your prayers.
Tell you what, he doesn't
do that for everyone.
I think that sometimes
people don't have faith.
They don't believe.
Faith. Is that what it is?
Yeah, that's right. God hears you.
And he's always listening.
Whatever, Carrie.
Those people with faith
they'll see an answer to their prayer
then those without, they miss the message.
Shit, fucking bullshit.
So you just gonna sit up here and tell me
that if I'm homeless and
I pray to God for a job
and he doesn't give it to me,
it's because I don't have faith.
Is that what you saying?
The Bible also says that
faith without works is dead.
Okay, so either way it goes, I'm the one
to blame for my situation.
And God gets the praises.
You wanna fuck this?
Let's go.
Go? Go where?
Well, I need to finish a
job that I started earlier.
And because of you, I need more morphine.
I'm not going anywhere with you.
Okay, fine. You stay there.
No, no. I'll go. I'll go.
Don't. Don't hurt her. No.
You'll go?
Yes. Yes. Go. Just don't hurt my baby.
Please don't hurt my baby.
Okay. That's what I thought.
- That's what I thought.
- Okay.
Let's go.
Oh, almost forgot, Mrs. Rucker,
may I please borrow one
of your knives? (Laughs)
I'm just fucking with you.
I got enough in my bag.
Let's go.
- Get in the trunk.
- Please, don't
Carry, get your ass in the trunk.
Go get your ass in the trunk.
I'm be I got time schedule,
goddammit, get in the truck.
Watch your head.
(engine roaring)
Help.
Jesus, I need you
after all.
After all, your name is for your kingdom.
Please God, don't forsake me now.
We always talk about what they'll do
with a million dollars.
They don't, they don't know
about old freeway. Huh?
Freeway had a million
dollars. Me had Hank talking.
Sam came and messed it up.
Ride a little bit for old freeway.
It's the new freeway, you know. Fuck Hank.
He always ditching me.
So it's just me and you
tonight just saying to you.
Ooh, it's just me and you.
Just me and you.
It's just me and you
Just me and you
Oh. You scared the outta me.
Don't play like that.
Go fuck around and find out.
Shit, what you, what you
doing down here anyway?
Look, I'm sorry. You want a little swig?
Yeah. Okay. Look, come on.
I know a spot. (Suspenseful music)
Crazy.
(man screaming) (horn blaring)
Oh, Reverend Rock.
There you are. My
delicious chocolate lollipop.
Are you ready for round two?
Don't touch me.
Oh, come on.
Don't act like it wasn't the best head
you ever had.
Besides, now that Carrie's
tied up in the trunk of your car,
she can't fuck up the vibe.
What did you do to my wife.
Ugh. Settle down.
So did God answer your prayers?
Did he?
Is that what this is about?
Proven that God doesn't exist.
No.
I actually grew up in a Christian home,
went to church in
everything, believe it or not.
It's incredible how it formed
me to be who I am today.
Let me ask you something.
When did you know you were
supposed to be a minister?
How old were you?
I was 13 when I gave
my life to Christ, 24 when
I was called into ministry.
Thirteen, huh?
I was 16 when I killed my first victim
who was a boy I liked.
What did he do to
make you want to kill him?
Nothing. You're not
listening, Pastor Rucker.
I'm trying to get you to
understand that I know
what it's like to be called.
Saying God called you to kill that boy.
I'm saying that you
asked me if I believed in God
and I told you that I did.
The same God who called you, called me.
Oh, see, you don't understand.
Well, I'm gonna make you understand.
Just enough to keep you
relaxed so you're not a threat,
but alert enough to know
exactly what I'm about
to do to your family.
Now it's time to add my
first stroke to my masterpiece.
Innocent.
Thanks.
Yeah.
This way to start the weekend.
How many does that make?
- 10. Since March.
- Any info on the victim?
Not much. I mean, obviously homeless.
The one lady who would
speak with me said he goes
by the name of freeway.
Do you, do you think
that this could be another
victim of Big Hank?
I don't know.
- Hey, see these stab wounds?
- Mm-hmm.
See how they kind of angle
up upwards toward the throat?
Means whoever did this
was most likely shorter.
- Mummy.
- Rise and shine.
Miss Trudy, what are you
doing? What are you doing?
Why am I tied up? Why?
Oh, don't worry about that, darling.
It'll all be over soon enough.
Trudy, where are my parents?
Well, they're a little preoccupied
at the moment, but no worries.
I have prepared a nice meal
and we'll all sit down at the
table together as a family.
A family. What is wrong with you?
Wrong with me?
Well, it's actually quite a
few things wrong with me.
Oh, me.
But not the things you think.
You know, earlier you asked
me why I was homeless.
That's, that's, that's not what I meant.
I didn't, I didn't mean like that.
I was just interested in your story.
Then I'll tell you my story.
Let me ask you a question.
Has your father ever touched you
Touch me? What do you mean?
I mean, like inappropriately.
Of course not. No.
Mine's dead.
It was my stepfather.
I was 10 years old the first time.
He would wait for my mother to go to sleep
and he would come into my room.
He called me his pretty little princess.
And I was too young to realize that
a grown man, a father,
you should never, you should never
kiss a little girl's neck
or a little girl's collarbone
or a girl's lip,
little girl.
I tried to tell my mom, I did,
and think she would believe me.
I was about your age when
I finally stood up for myself.
- What did you do?
- Oh, I hurt him.
I hurt him to the point to
where he would never hurt
another person like that again.
No, No.
After that, you know, I
spent a couple years in juvie.
You know, one thing
led to another, and voila,
here I am.
Like, Judy, look, you
don't have to do this.
You have a good heart.
You have a good heart, Judy,
Your daddy probably
never touched you like that
because he doesn't
think you're pretty enough.
It's okay. We can't all be
daddy's pretty little princess.
Ooh, a makeover.
No. (Screaming)
Ah. See what she doing?
What?
(Innocent screaming) (phone ringing)
Ah. Oh, it's Helpy.
It's a little bit late for a
boy to be texting you,
don't you think?
What would your parents say?
- Oh no.
- What's the passcode?
- No.
- What's
No.
Right now?
Of course, now. You
know where the call it.
Like, okay. Okay. Okay.
(phone chimes) (Innocent crying)
It is a tragic scene
here at Railroad Tracks
in Third Ward, police have
confirmed that the victim,
a homeless victim, where going believed
to be in their thirties was found
with over 20 vicious stab wounds.
Investigators are treating
this case as a homicide
and are currently following several leads.
No one saw the attack take place.
The police are urging
anyone with information
to come forward as they
piece together the event that led
to this senseless act of violence.
Innocent.
Shit.
Innocent.
Innocent, Innocent.
Ah, hurry.
(knife clangs)
Sorry, sorry.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
(man crying)
Hey, what the fuck is going on, man? Hmm?
What the fuck is going on?
What's going on is
you're about to be charged
with assault, maybe murder.
Wait, wait, wait. Murder?
I didn't fucking kill nobody.
Let me guess. We got it
all wrong. You're being set up.
Like I said, I didn't touch nobody.
I didn't assault nobody,
and I am damn sure ain't kill nobody. Hm.
We have witnesses, Hank.
Ooh, those kids. Hm?
Those bastards ain't
show up until afterwards.
Wait a minute, Jesus.
Is that a confession?
I think it is.
Oh no.
That ain't what I'm saying.
Showing the post to tent.
She look familiar.
Is it ringing a bell?
What the fuck.
That you, Hank, that
you assaulting the victim.
That bitch ain't no victim.
Y'all don't know her like I know her.
Let me guess. She asked for it. Huh?
She wanted it.
She was asking for it, changed
her mind, maybe got upset.
So you attacked her.
Oh man.
I'm not saying it like that, man.
That's kind of what I'm hearing though.
But you not listening to me.
Okay, Hank, I'm listening.
(meal sizzling)
Delicious. Okay.
(fist thuds)
Reverend Rucker, you
managed to set yourself free.
- We will remember you.
- Oh, wouldn't you
like to know.
(body thuds) (man screams)
It's like a little bitch.
Can't even save your family.
He can't expect us to
believe that ridiculous story
that she tried to kill him.
I mean, I'd almost feel sorry
for the guy if he wasn't about
to get a one-way ticket
to three hots and a cot.
That's kind of a fucked up
thing to say. Don't you think?
It's not like it isn't true Detective.
I mean, sure, prison sucks,
but he's at least gonna
have four walls and a bed.
Think about the alternative.
He could be dead.
I mean, did you see his knife wounds?
Knife wounds?
- Doc. Doc?
- Yes. Yes. Detective.
What is it?
The homeless guy in
there, his, his wounds.
How did he get them?
- I told you a knife.
- No, no.
Not that it's. Here. Here.
The lacerations.
Oh yeah. Yes.
Did they happen the same way?
In fact, the exact same angle.
He was telling the truth.
Son of a bitch.
That means the woman is
not the victim, she's the killer.
The woman that was here earlier today.
- Yeah.
- That family took her home.
- Oh shit.
- Oh shit.
Nothing like a nice family dinner,
wouldn't you say, Pastor Rucker?
Would you like to lead us in prayer?
Oh, are you not talking to God now?
Come on Rev, give us
one just for all time's sake.
Go to hell.
Dear Lord, your word says
the thief comes to steal,
kill and destroy.
But I have come so you may have life
and have it in full.
Oh, you a clever motherfucker, huh?
- John 10:10.
- Seems fitting.
All right. Enough of this shit.
Let us eat.
It smells delicious, doesn't it?
Trudy, please, just
let me and my family go.
Can't do that.
I must complete my masterpiece.
It's delicious.
Okay, it's your turn.
Now. Open wide.
Eat, eat, bitch.
(suspenseful music)
(Innocent sobbing)
All right, pastor, your turn.
Open. Open your mouth.
Ah. (Chuckles)
So it's an old family
recipe, okay, in a sense.
And I think that you will enjoy it.
Bite, bite.
Come on. I promise it's good.
A little bit more. Come
on, gets a little bit.
Aren't you glad Toby
could join us for dinner?
Toby?
Oh, you don't have to
look too far. It's right here.
(all coughing)
Toby, it's sick. You're
sick. You're so sick.
Aw, thank you.
See, if it hadn't been for you,
I would've just cut out his heart.
You know, trust me, there's
no coming back from that.
So you are welcome.
How could you, how could you do that?
Damn.
After everything you've been through?
(Judy laughs)
Wait, wait.
You believe me?
Oh, honey, my father never touched me.
No, no. He might be a bit of
an asshole, yes, big asshole.
But all in all, he's a really good guy.
I mean, he paid for my college.
Even even helped me through grad school.
Aw, Innocent.
You really shouldn't be so trusting,
especially with random
homeless people you just met.
Yeah, and then the kicker,
convincing your parents to take me in.
If I had the chance and
the choice to do it again,
you best believe I would.
Well, surprise. I'm not homeless.
Never have been. Nope.
It was all just a disguise
so that I could really fit in,
you know, with my prey.
A wolf.
This is 45 L15. We are en
route to 12597, 10 minutes.
We're gonna need some backup.
(siren blaring)
You killed those six homeless people.
Six. I killed dozens. I'm
a fucking angel of death.
It's okay. Oh, it's okay.
When God get to killing
people, it's okay everybody.
Oh, God's will.
What you're doing is not the will of God.
Everything I'm doing is in God's will.
He's the one who created
me. He made me like this.
He made me a killer.
And fortunate for me, no
one cares about the homeless.
I mean, people say they do, but
They are people.
Disposable people.
You walk by them people every day
and no one ever engages, right?
No, 'cause y'all don't give
a fuck about their stories.
That's not true.
I've been fighting to make
things better for the homeless.
You have no idea what I've done,
the sacrifices I've made.
Oh, but I know exactly what you've done.
The question is, does Carrie
know what you've done?
What you and Penny have done.
Isaiah, what is she talking about?
- She, she's talking nonsense.
- Oh am I?
Wow.
How about we examine evidence?
Let's see here.
Thanks. Please.
So if you look here,
you see?
Read that right there.
Please. No, stop.
Isaiah, is this saying
what I think it's saying.
- I can explain.
- Yes, explain,
Pastor Reverend good for
nothing. Trifling sack of shit.
Minister Rucker, explain how you
and Penny have been
funneling money from the church
to pay cricket City officials.
Explain that
Dad.
Beb, please.
It was the homeless shelter.
Everything was wrapped up
in bureaucracy and corruption.
We needed ordinances and permits.
But the other real estate
companies had the advantage
because they were willing to give money
to special causes under the table.
So you chose to be corrupt with them.
The people needed us, they needed me.
You stole from the church,
you stole from God's people.
I did what I had to do.
You should have trusted God.
I did trust God.
Year after year I trusted
him. I prayed to him.
I was faithful to him.
And all I wanted was for
him to be faithful to me,
to trust me, to open the doors
so I could better serve His people,
His people.
No, obstacle after
obstacle, barrier after barrier
until I took matters into my own hands.
I got this shelter built me.
Said, don't talk to me about trusting God.
It was all me.
And apparently Penny.
Maybe, you know, don't understand.
I can't even look at you.
Please God. No.
Why? While we listen.
While we listen. This is all my fault.
Everything happened because of me.
I could have prevented
this. Yes, it is my fault.
No, baby. No, it's not
your fault. It's her fault.
It's all her fault. It truth is fault.
Oh, I can not have imagined
tonight going more physical.
It's going to be okay, baby.
You know what?
We're almost there.
Gonna be fine, baby.
The point that I complete my masterpiece.
One mind, one soul, and one body.
You want this body?
Fine. Take it, you coward.
You know, you've
been talking shit all night.
And you been hide
behind that gun all night.
You are right.
(gun firing) (thunder clapping)
Carrie, Carrie.
The fuck did you do?
Aw, don't cry.
My masterpiece is complete.
One mind, one soul,
and one body.
- Police.
- Gun, gun
Drop your weapon.
(gun firing)
Dispatch, send immediate medical support
to my physician, asap.
I got you right.
You okay?
Okay.
Fuck, I lost her. Goddammit.
Dispatch, I need an APB.
I got an African American
woman with braids, green shirt,
black pants, and a backpack.
I want everybody on this.
(woman panting)
Shit.
(engine roaring)
(fist thuds)
Stop, stop, help me, please,
please help me.
Please help me. I just need a ride.
I just gotta get outta here, please.
Hey, hey. What's going on? Are you okay?
He beat me. He is trying to kill me.
I gotta get outta here
before he finds me. Please.
Hey, listen, this, this,
this isn't my car, so, so,
so I don't know if I can
give you a, a ride, but,
but I, I could call 911.
No, no, they, they're
not gonna do anything.
All they're gonna do
is send me back to him.
= Hey, hey, everything's okay.
Everything's gonna be okay.
I'm gonna give you a ride. Okay.
And where do you need to go?
I have family on the side.
(man grunting)
Thank you. Couldn't
have done this without you.
(engine roaring)
Somebody help. Help.
Somebody help me.
