Murdaugh: Death In The Family (2025) s01e03 Episode Script
Kokomo
1
[Mallory Beach] Paul, slow down! Stop!
[Randolph Murdaugh]
If he was driving the boat
when they hit the bridge,
boating under the influence,
- causing bodily injury.
- He could go to prison.
[Alex Murdaugh] I've got the Alvarezes
about to walk in,
so all I need from you is
to float me a loan for the credit cards.
[Luna Alvarez] Do a lot of your
clients do this, structured settlements?
Most all of them. It's the best way to
protect your money.
Hope he doesn't think he can
buy himself out of trouble.
After this, never again.
Any word on Mallory?
We found her. Her body was
discovered five miles out.
Goddamn it, Paul!
I said get the hell out of here!
[Alex] He's a good kid.
He's got a good heart.
We're gonna get
through this, as a family.
[newscaster] In a stunning development,
a grand jury has indicted
19-year-old Paul Murdaugh,
the son of prominent
lawyer Alec Murdaugh,
in connection with the
February boat crash
which killed 19-year-old Mallory Beach.
Murdaugh is scheduled
to appear in court later today.
[echoing] Murdaugh is
scheduled to appear
[friends shouting]
[voices overlap, distort]
[boat motor roaring]
[indistinct chatter]
[chatter, laughter]
All right, Paw-Paw.
Uh, this here's Dick.
He's the best of the best, okay?
You listen closely to what
he says, all right?
You're gonna be okay.
I'll leave you to it.
You got it.
Now, we're gonna have this wrapped up
before you can say "boo," son, okay?
You just follow my lead, you got it?
Now, the judge will be here in a minute,
and you don't need to say a word, okay?
[muffled] I will do all the talkin'.
They're gonna read the charges,
and then we'll get to setting the bail.
There shouldn't be too much to discuss.
It's all just a formality.
Oh, here he comes.
- Ahem!
- [bailiff] All rise.
[Dick Harpootlian] Paul.
Paul.
- Paul!
- Hmm?
[Dick] [clear] Stand the fuck up, son.
[camera clicking]
- You're good.
- [Megan Burchstead] Morning, Your Honor.
First up for your consideration today
is the indictment of Paul Terry Murdaugh.
He's indicted on two counts
of felony boating
under the influence
causing bodily injury,
one count of felony boating
under the influence causing death.
[muffled] He is presumed innocent.
He is pleading not guilty.
He should be afforded release
on his own recognizance.
[Burchstead] [muffled] There is some
concern about danger to the community.
[Dick] Mr. Murdaugh is a member
of a highly respected family
in our community.
The family assures me
that he will be under
constant supervision.
I'm gonna set a personal
recognizance bond
in the amount of $50,000.
[gavel bangs]
[spectators chattering]
[Dick] [echoing] See?
What did I tell you?
Easy.
Is it over?
[audio muffled, distorted]
Good morning to the loveliest
lady in Hampton, huh?
[groans]
Aren't I just such a
lucky son of a bitch?
- Something smells good.
- [gasps] No, Alec!
- No!
- Oh, come on. That's delicious.
That was for the Beaches.
I'm part of the Meal Train.
I was about to drop that off to Renee.
That's good, but you can't be taking
around sympathy casseroles there now.
- Why?
- Why?
Because it looks like you got somethin'
to apologize for, and you don't.
[Maggie Murdaugh]
People are blaming Paul.
You want us just to hide out here
in this house?
- You think that sends a better message?
- No!
People online today said that Paul
could get sentenced to 70 years.
No one's doing 70 years, okay?
Dick and Jim are the best
lawyers in the state.
They gonna get this case dismissed
and people are gonna move on
to the next thing.
And, Mags, all this worrying
ain't doing you any good.
Yeah.
But I got to get to work,
so I need my medicine.
Oh.
[sighs] Okay.
[pills rattle]
So far so good?
I'd be lost at sea without you, babe.
All right? Don't you worry, okay?
Mwah.
[dramatic music playing]
No, Go-Go.
One of these years,
you'll put your clothes in the hamper.
Go-Go, I can do that.
[Gloria] I've got it.
You know, one of the most
beautiful things about the Lord
is if you ask for
forgiveness, He'll forgive you.
Yeah, I'm not sure God's
listening right now.
Oh, baby, He's always listening.
You know, I know you're not
much for church,
but I go every Sunday with
the boys if you feel up to it.
Okay?
You think about it.
I know Mallory is somewhere
in heaven, baby.
So don't you worry.
Yes, ma'am, I'll spell that out for you.
A-L-V-A-R-E-Z, Alvarez.
But you telling me it's in process
doesn't tell me when my clients
are gonna get their money.
I mean, this They're tryin'
to keep the lights on.
They need that 750,000.
No, hey, whoa, whoa. Now what say I come
after your
big old insurance company
for interest and penalties
on this payment, huh?
How's it gonna look when
your boss finds out
you were the one draggin'
your feet on this?
I look forward to hearing from you.
These goddamn fuckin'
insurance companies, man,
I tell you.
[exhales]
Any problems?
No, bo, just pick up a package
deliver a package.
Ain't nothing else to know.
You seem all stressed out.
Troubles got you down, bo?
Oh, man, what hasn't got me down?
All right, one Big Red special, Mr. Alec.
Whoa! You mean one Big Daddy special.
I'm not callin' you Big Daddy,
no matter how many times you say it.
[laughs]
Oh, man, it just seems like
all this boat crash bullshit's
got everyone out of sorts.
I mean, Maggie's got a problem
with me most days of the week.
Paw-Paw doesn't come out of his room.
Buster ain't been home for
a visit since I don't know when.
Seems like everyone's
just stuck in the mud.
Show 'em the magic, bo.
Show 'em the what?
You are Alec-goddamn-Murdaugh.
Just show 'em the fuckin' magic, man.

starting law school this year.
Still trying to figure out
what to focus on.
Mm.
Did you ever think about a career?
Well, I I had a ladies' shop
called Branches in town.
But it took too much time
away from the boys.
[Brooklynn White] Mm.
You know, you have to sacrifice
a lot of things
to make them the men that
you know that they can be.
But seeing them shine,
everything that you gave up
to get them there,
it's all worth it.
How are things physically
with you and Buster?

I would love that.
These Murdaugh men, they're tough.
So you gotta be tough right back.

You gonna jump in?
Scared?
There ain't nothing to be scared of.

- Hey, your kid's a natural.
[waves crashing]
[Reiki healer] Do you have an intention
for today, Margaret?
Oh, it's Maggie, actually.
Oh. Thank you for letting me know.
Do you have an intention, Maggie?
Okay, so I just exhaled
a white golden light
through your crown chakra,
down your spine,
just to see how energy
is flowing through your body.
I do not feel you grounded.
I do not feel you present in your body.
All of that from touching my head.
What I am hearing right here
is disappointment.
Hmm.
Wow.
Hm. The energy here
it feels like
[inhales sharply]
like anger.
Why am I angry?
I am being asked to ask you
to see the bigger picture.
[hands rubbing]
What bigger picture?
That we are all so vast.
You are vast, Maggie.
I am?
This is a gift.
A sunstone.
[inhales sharply]
It manifests personal power.
And expanded consciousness.
[hands rubbing]
Oh, I feel like I'm opening up a cage.
Like you've been in one of those, um,
those-those travel cages like,
like an animal would be in.
But the door was never locked.
You were always free.
[ambient dinner music playing]
[Alex] Mm.
[cutlery clatters]
Mm.
[chomping]
[knife cutting against plate]
You want a bite?
No, thank you.
You want something else?
- No.
- Oh, come on.
[lips smacking]
Nothing is too good for my lady.
[Alex chomping]
[Velcro tears]
It's way too high, Mama.
[Gloria] Oh, it's just
hot out today, baby.
You ever make that appointment
with that, uh,
cardiologist in Charleston?
Oh. You know they
charge an arm and a leg.
It just It just didn't seem worth it.
I thought Miss Maggie said
she would pay for it.
They got a lot going on.
And anyway, you know how
they can be, so
Mama, this ain't going away by itself.
- [laughs] Oh, God!
- Yeah?
Hey, I take care of me.
Okay?
[Alex] Cheers.
[glasses clink]
You and Mama have a good dinner?
- Oh, it was real nice.
- Yeah?
Yeah.
You, uh
You take Brooklynn to that,
uh, what you call it?
- Katsuya.
- Katsuya.
Yeah. She likes sushi.
Yeah, I never did understand
that whole raw fish thing.
- No.
- Right there, bo.
Right there.
I wonder what kind of trouble
they're gonna get up to tonight.
I don't mind that one in the blue.
You and me both.
[both laugh]
Ooh! So, Paul make it to dinner tonight?
- No. No, he bailed.
- He did?
Yeah, I'm not sure where he's at.
I can't seem to do a thing right
with that boy.
Oh, come on, you do plenty, all right?
Paul's just
- You know, Paul's just Paul.
- Yeah.
I mean, still, I wish
I don't know.
You've been having a good time,
though right?
- Yeah, we're having a great trip.
- Oh, nice.
I'll be lucky if I get to do
the same for my family someday.
[laughs] Oh, come on.
You deserve it. You do.
I mean, getting into
law school like that,
carrying on the family line.
Real proud of you, Buster.
Thanks.
Go on.
Go on. Get on up to your room
and show that little lady
of yours a good time.
I can stay and have
another drink with you.
No, go on. She's waiting for you.
All right.
I love you, Dad.
I love you too, son.
- I'll see you in the morning.
- Yes, you will.
[exhales]
- [customer] Hi.
- [bartender] Hi.
Um, I'd like a Reposado
on the rocks, please,
with a slice of orange if you have it.
- Yes, ma'am.
- Thank you.
At least they have decent tequila here.
[chuckles]
- Thank you.
- [bartender] No problem.
Oh, I hate places like this.
Me too.
Bunch of my girlfriends
wanted to do a weekend away.
I guess this place was easy, but
I wish we had gone on
more of an adventure.
[Maggie] Mm.
You travel a lot?
Yeah, I used to.
For work.
Mm.
I miss it.
What do you do?
Pediatric cardiologist in Chicago,
but I used to work for
Doctors Without Borders in my 30s.
- Mm.
- Took me all over the world.
That must've been hard on your family.
Mm. I just brought my daughter
with me wherever I went.
How'd your husband feel about that?
[laughs]
I've never been married.
I adopted Sophie when she was a baby,
and it's just been the two of us
ever since.
I'm sorry. I assumed.
[scoffs] Please, it's fine.
So why didn't you ever marry?
I guess I, uh
never met anybody I wanted
to spend that kind of time with.
Hmm.
What about you? Are you married?
No, I'm divorced.
- Congratulations.
- [Maggie chuckles]
- Kids?
- [sighs]
No kids.
What do you do?
I'm a landscape architect.
- Wow.
- Hmm.
Yeah, I spent this last year on
this really big job in Atlanta,
and my sister said, "You need a break."
So she surprised me this weekend.
- That's sweet of her.
- Yeah, it is.
But to be honest,
I'd rather be at my beach house
with my dog.
It's, you know, really
the only place that I can be.
Just be.
Mm, sounds lovely.
Life is not perfect.
But
it is good.
And that makes me happy.
It's weird how it all happens, isn't it?
Nothing's what you think
it's gonna be like
- when you're younger.
- Lord no.
I'm Sara, by the way.
I'm Margaret.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
- Fucking Australia!
- Let's fucking go, boys.
Cheers.
Hey! Hey!
[Angus] Ladies, he's fucking buying.
This guy right here.
- [grunts]
- Hey, get a fucking video.
- Here with our new mate.
- Hey!
This man's a fucking champion.
Epic number of tequila shots,
and he's still standing.
- Fucking hilarious.
- [Paul] Oh, you know
- what would be fucking funny?
- What's that, mate?
Yo, punch me in the face.
- [laughs]
- You crack me up, mate.
No, no, no, no, no, no. Fucking do it.
- Fucking punch me in the face.
- We're not gonna lay you out.
Come on. Come on, you pussy.
Punch me in the fucking face!
- Chill.
- Easy, mate.
Come on, you little chickenshit
kangaroo fuck.
- [Jack] Stop.
- [spits]
Fuck
Is that all you got, you fucking pussy?
Come on!
[grunts]

[Gloria] Oh.
Hello?

Paul?
Are you okay, baby?
Go-Go, what's it like in hell?

[Gloria] I Uh
God forgives you.
- He does.
- [sniffles]
No, no, no, no, no. He
He doesn't.
He does not.
[Gloria] If you accept His love
in your heart,
He'll take care of you.
Um
I don't think I have a heart.
You love me, baby. I know you do.
And God sees it, too.
He sees you every day.
Okay?
So you just have to let Him in,
and He'll look out for you.
You promise?
Oh, I promise.
Okay.
Okay.
[Gloria sighs]
[keys jingle]
Okay, I want you to give
those customers that big,
beautiful smile, okay?
Mm-hmm.
And don't pack them bags
too heavy for people to carry.
Oh, I made you bologna and cheese,
extra pickles, just how you like.
Thank you, Mama.
You're gonna have a
great first day, baby.
I know it.
[starts ignition]
[Maggie] Paw-Paw,
you're all black and blue.
- Those bruises aren't getting any better.
- I said I'm okay.
[Alex] Mama, I'm just gonna call Bruce.
Are you sure that's okay?
I could get you some ice.
[Paul] No, I said I'm okay.
[Maggie] That's good.
Did you check the account? Oh, yeah.
Listen, take what you need,
pay the credit cards.
Leave the rest for the Forge account.
All right, you know it. All right, well,
you just gotta trust in that
Big Red magic, bo.
[chuckles] I will. I'll see you soon.
[Alex sighs]
- Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!
- [cutlery clanks on glass]
I'd like to propose a toast.
This is the last meal
of the Murdaugh family vacay for 2019.
And I hope you've all enjoyed
yourselves, I really do.
Now Brooklynn,
it's been great gettin' to know you,
darling, it really has.
And I hope you know
we all love you, all right?
Buster, big man, I know you're
gonna continue to make us proud.
Hell, he gonna probably
end up right at the top of his law class.
I hope so.
To my wife.
- To my Maggie.
- Hmm.
I love you, baby.
You are the most beautiful woman,
and all that an old man
like me could hope for.
And to Paw-Paw, we love you, son.
We do.
And here's to weathering the storm.
Cheers.
- [all] Cheers.
- [Alex] Come on, get in there.
[glasses clink]
- [whistle blows]

Bo, this is for you.
[whistle blowing]
[blowing whistle]
Ooh. Whoa!
[sound muffled]
[boat motor roaring]
Whoo!
Get Get off. Get the fuck off of me!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa!
- [music stops]
Jesus! Chill.
- You okay?
- Yeah.
What the fuck's the matter
with you now, huh?
This a little bit too much fun
for you, bo?
You can't enjoy yourself
unless you're ruining shit
for everybody else, is that it?
- Fuck you.
- Fuck me? Fuck you!
- [Maggie] Hey, hey, hey.
- No, no, no, no, no.
You got any idea, any idea
what this thing costs?
How hard I got to work
to bring you on a trip like this?
I didn't ask to fucking come here!
And all you got to do is
to sit back and enjoy yourself.
But, oh, no.
You got to be a little pussy
- Okay.
- in case for just one fuckin' minute,
we all forget what a gigantic
fuckup you really are.
If I'm such a fuckup, why'd you
give me the keys to the boat?
You' saying it's my fault,
you little piece of shit?
- [Maggie] Alec, it was an accident.
- [Alex] Hm? No, no, no, no.
Get over here, you little fucking pussy.
Say that to my face.
- Get the fuck over here, big boy.
- It's nobody's fault. Okay?
- It was an accident.
- No, you
No, you're just as bad as he is.
What are you saying?
Yeah, you just want to pretend
nothing bad happened.
Baby, I'm on your side.
We're all on your side.
We're trying to be understanding.
You don't want to understand shit.
No, all you care about
All you care about is how things look
to your fucking friends!
Paul, lay off, all right? Lay off, okay?
- You're embarrassing us.
- [Paul] Oh, am I?
Am I embarrassing you?
Who the fuck made you the president?
When are you gonna realize you're not
the only person in this fuckin' family.
Don't fucking talk to me
about being in a family, bo.
You're never fucking around.
You know what it's like for me
to be in the house
with the two of them when you're gone?
How fucked up it is? No, you know what?
You're right. I don't give
a fuck about you,
because you don't actually give
a fuck about me.
[Maggie] Shh, shh!
Baby, you've been through a lot.
And your daddy and I, we are
gonna make sure that all of this
misunderstanding goes away,
but it's gonna take some time.
Oh, my God! Mama, what is
the misunderstanding?
I'm the reason that Mallory is dead.
Okay?
Okay?
And it's not going away,
because that is what happened.
- No
- It happened. That's who I am now.
[sighs]
Hope your family enjoyed
their stay, Mr. Murdaugh.
We sure did.
Uh, it put on this.
[cell phone vibrates]
One second.
Gabriel, how the hell are you?
Hey, listen, yeah, I'm sorry
I didn't get back to you sooner,
but I've been out of town on business.
No, no, no, it hasn't.
Settlement hasn't hit the account yet.
I know, I do. These
These insurance companies,
they move like molasses.
But, you know, not to worry none, okay?
I'm gonna I'm gonna
keep right on top of it.
All right, okay, but listen.
No, I know how bad you
need the money. I do.
And you and Miss Luna
are always on my mind.
Just, just know that, alright?
Yeah.
I will. I'll be sure to let you
know as soon as it comes in. Alright.
Good morning.
Oh, good morning. Look at my new shoes.
What do you think?
Oh, I like them.
Yeah, I got them this morning
at the gift shop.
Thought I'd try something new.
Y'all ready? Loading up the car.
Yeah, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Did you get your photo yet?
[scoffs] Let's just go, Alec.
No, we don't. Mama likes to get
a little family picture
at the end of every trip.
Okay, come on, Paw-Paw,
let's get up. Come on, come on.
- [Maggie] Come on.
- [Alex] Come on, Brooklynn, let's do this.
- Get in here. Okay, big buddy bo.
- [Buster] Come on, bo.
- You mind gettin' a picture of all of us?
- It's one picture, come on.
[Alex] Hey, my man, you mind taking
a photo for us, bo?
Come on, Paw-Paw, get in here
and take a photo with your mama.
- Come on.
- No, Brooklynn, come on.
- Get in here.
- [Brooklynn] You sure?
Of course, we want you in.
All right, we ready now?
All right, everybody
say, "Kokomo!"
[all] Kokomo!
[insects chirruping]
[Alex] Hey, Go-Go.
Mr. Alec, how was the trip?
Oh, we had a great time, Go. We did.
I mean, it was
I mean, if I had to say anything
I think we might've had
too much of a good time.
- If you catch my meaning.
- Oh!
[laughs] I think I know how it is!
- Yeah, I bet you do.
- [both chuckle]
Oh, yeah.
Well, listen, Go, we got
in pretty late last night,
and I was too tired to bring in the bags.
If you wouldn't mind just
unloading them from my truck.
- Help me get a jump on my day.
- Oh, sure thing.
All right All right, then.
All right, I'm off.
Oh, and hey, Go.
I think Maggie might've
got you something.
You might want to
check on the table.
[cell phone chimes]
"Off on the way should go,
and even when they're old,
they will not turn from it."
Fair enough.
[Mark Tinsley] Uh-oh. Hey, hey.
Oh! Hey!
If it ain't big-game-huntin' Mark.
- How are we doing?
- How it do, bo?
Can't complain.
You want a waffle taco?
- No.
- Oh, come on, I insist.
- No.
- Come on, get a bite.
Trying to look out for my health.
Too bad.
- Brought extra gravy, huh?
- [laughs] I did, I did.
You remember when we went
huntin' with those Lambert boys?
Little one shot the big one in
the foot with my daddy's 10/22.
[laughs]
I still think he walks funny.
I offer to carry him on my back
every time I see him.
- You do not!
- I do.
Good thing he says
no. He's a big ol' boy.
[both laugh]
Mm.
What brings you in, Mark?
Well, you heard I was representing
Renee and Phillip Beach.
Yes, sir, I did.
And let me tell you,
I was very happy to hear
they're being represented
by such a righteous attorney as yourself.
Thank you.
[sighs]
The Beaches feel like
Mallory had her whole life
in front of her.
She did.
I'm sorry, but they decided
to file a lawsuit.
I got a process server waiting outside.
Figured you'd want to finish
your breakfast.
- That's mighty kind of you.
- The least I can do.
I do. I appreciate it.
But listen, there's no need to apologize.
We're gonna get all this sorted out.
Great.
I'll be waiting to discuss the settlement
once you got your ducks in a row.
Enjoy those tacos now.

[suspenseful music playing]
Sub extracted from file & improved
[Alex] [echoing]
It won't happen again.
I promise.
They need to pay.
You need to resolve this.
It's starting to feel like the walls
are just getting closer and closer
and I can't breathe.
[Randolph] The only cards
you're playing with now
is the hand that you dealt yourself.
[Mandy]
We have their attention now.
We keep up the pressure, and that's
how we're gonna end up with the truth.
[Alex] Whatever happens,
we gotta have each other's backs.
Family first.
What kind of man would let this happen
to his family?
Somebody's out there huntin' us.
[Randy] The state grand jury
is opening an investigation
into a possible cover-up.
Do you have any idea
the damage you've done?
Your sons love you.
Please, pull yourself together.
- [Randolph] You're a Murdaugh.
- [dog barking]
The truth is irrelevant.
[Mallory Beach] Paul, slow down! Stop!
[Randolph Murdaugh]
If he was driving the boat
when they hit the bridge,
boating under the influence,
- causing bodily injury.
- He could go to prison.
[Alex Murdaugh] I've got the Alvarezes
about to walk in,
so all I need from you is
to float me a loan for the credit cards.
[Luna Alvarez] Do a lot of your
clients do this, structured settlements?
Most all of them. It's the best way to
protect your money.
Hope he doesn't think he can
buy himself out of trouble.
After this, never again.
Any word on Mallory?
We found her. Her body was
discovered five miles out.
Goddamn it, Paul!
I said get the hell out of here!
[Alex] He's a good kid.
He's got a good heart.
We're gonna get
through this, as a family.
[newscaster] In a stunning development,
a grand jury has indicted
19-year-old Paul Murdaugh,
the son of prominent
lawyer Alec Murdaugh,
in connection with the
February boat crash
which killed 19-year-old Mallory Beach.
Murdaugh is scheduled
to appear in court later today.
[echoing] Murdaugh is
scheduled to appear
[friends shouting]
[voices overlap, distort]
[boat motor roaring]
[indistinct chatter]
[chatter, laughter]
All right, Paw-Paw.
Uh, this here's Dick.
He's the best of the best, okay?
You listen closely to what
he says, all right?
You're gonna be okay.
I'll leave you to it.
You got it.
Now, we're gonna have this wrapped up
before you can say "boo," son, okay?
You just follow my lead, you got it?
Now, the judge will be here in a minute,
and you don't need to say a word, okay?
[muffled] I will do all the talkin'.
They're gonna read the charges,
and then we'll get to setting the bail.
There shouldn't be too much to discuss.
It's all just a formality.
Oh, here he comes.
- Ahem!
- [bailiff] All rise.
[Dick Harpootlian] Paul.
Paul.
- Paul!
- Hmm?
[Dick] [clear] Stand the fuck up, son.
[camera clicking]
- You're good.
- [Megan Burchstead] Morning, Your Honor.
First up for your consideration today
is the indictment of Paul Terry Murdaugh.
He's indicted on two counts
of felony boating
under the influence
causing bodily injury,
one count of felony boating
under the influence causing death.
[muffled] He is presumed innocent.
He is pleading not guilty.
He should be afforded release
on his own recognizance.
[Burchstead] [muffled] There is some
concern about danger to the community.
[Dick] Mr. Murdaugh is a member
of a highly respected family
in our community.
The family assures me
that he will be under
constant supervision.
I'm gonna set a personal
recognizance bond
in the amount of $50,000.
[gavel bangs]
[spectators chattering]
[Dick] [echoing] See?
What did I tell you?
Easy.
Is it over?
[audio muffled, distorted]
Good morning to the loveliest
lady in Hampton, huh?
[groans]
Aren't I just such a
lucky son of a bitch?
- Something smells good.
- [gasps] No, Alec!
- No!
- Oh, come on. That's delicious.
That was for the Beaches.
I'm part of the Meal Train.
I was about to drop that off to Renee.
That's good, but you can't be taking
around sympathy casseroles there now.
- Why?
- Why?
Because it looks like you got somethin'
to apologize for, and you don't.
[Maggie Murdaugh]
People are blaming Paul.
You want us just to hide out here
in this house?
- You think that sends a better message?
- No!
People online today said that Paul
could get sentenced to 70 years.
No one's doing 70 years, okay?
Dick and Jim are the best
lawyers in the state.
They gonna get this case dismissed
and people are gonna move on
to the next thing.
And, Mags, all this worrying
ain't doing you any good.
Yeah.
But I got to get to work,
so I need my medicine.
Oh.
[sighs] Okay.
[pills rattle]
So far so good?
I'd be lost at sea without you, babe.
All right? Don't you worry, okay?
Mwah.
[dramatic music playing]
No, Go-Go.
One of these years,
you'll put your clothes in the hamper.
Go-Go, I can do that.
[Gloria] I've got it.
You know, one of the most
beautiful things about the Lord
is if you ask for
forgiveness, He'll forgive you.
Yeah, I'm not sure God's
listening right now.
Oh, baby, He's always listening.
You know, I know you're not
much for church,
but I go every Sunday with
the boys if you feel up to it.
Okay?
You think about it.
I know Mallory is somewhere
in heaven, baby.
So don't you worry.
Yes, ma'am, I'll spell that out for you.
A-L-V-A-R-E-Z, Alvarez.
But you telling me it's in process
doesn't tell me when my clients
are gonna get their money.
I mean, this They're tryin'
to keep the lights on.
They need that 750,000.
No, hey, whoa, whoa. Now what say I come
after your
big old insurance company
for interest and penalties
on this payment, huh?
How's it gonna look when
your boss finds out
you were the one draggin'
your feet on this?
I look forward to hearing from you.
These goddamn fuckin'
insurance companies, man,
I tell you.
[exhales]
Any problems?
No, bo, just pick up a package
deliver a package.
Ain't nothing else to know.
You seem all stressed out.
Troubles got you down, bo?
Oh, man, what hasn't got me down?
All right, one Big Red special, Mr. Alec.
Whoa! You mean one Big Daddy special.
I'm not callin' you Big Daddy,
no matter how many times you say it.
[laughs]
Oh, man, it just seems like
all this boat crash bullshit's
got everyone out of sorts.
I mean, Maggie's got a problem
with me most days of the week.
Paw-Paw doesn't come out of his room.
Buster ain't been home for
a visit since I don't know when.
Seems like everyone's
just stuck in the mud.
Show 'em the magic, bo.
Show 'em the what?
You are Alec-goddamn-Murdaugh.
Just show 'em the fuckin' magic, man.

Oh, thank God. I finally have
a woman to talk to.
[Maggie laughs]
But I don't know anything about you.
Tell me all about yourself.
Um
well, I am excited about
starting law school this year.
Still trying to figure out
what to focus on.
Mm.
Did you ever think about a career?
Well, I I had a ladies' shop
called Branches in town.
But it took too much time
away from the boys.
[Brooklynn White] Mm.
You know, you have to sacrifice
a lot of things
to make them the men that
you know that they can be.
But seeing them shine,
everything that you gave up
to get them there,
it's all worth it.
How are things physically
with you and Buster?
Oh, um, yeah, he's a He's a gentleman.
[sighs] Oh, good.
He's always been such a good boy.
Oh, I was worried that maybe
his eczema would be acting up.
No. No, seems to be okay.
All right.
Can I give you some advice?
I would love that.
These Murdaugh men, they're tough.
So you gotta be tough right back.
[attendant] Margaret?
Margaret? Mrs. Murdaugh?
Oh! Oh, yes, sorry, that's me.
Must be time for my "rikishi,"
or my "rikshi-see"?
I don't know, whatever it's called.
It's part of my healing
transformation package.
Ooh.
- Okay.
- Perfect.
Okay, I'll see you on the other side.
- Yeah.
- Eat a cookie for me.
[Paul] Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.
- Come on, tell us. You two were dancing,
and then a fucking second later,
you were gone, poof!
- Yeah.
- Fuck off.
No, no, no. People deserve to know.
Did she give you a blowy in the bathroom?
[Paul] Yeah, she did.
You got her number? It's your shot, bo.
[Angus] What What's with
this "bo" business?
Uh, I don't know, it's just what we
What we call each other
where I'm from, bitch.
Oh, like "mate" or something.
Yeah, but it don't mean, like,
fucking or nothing.
[all laugh]
Mm
I'm gonna get us another round.
Yeah, okay, bo.
[Paul] Yo.
Sir?
Sir.
- You wanna talk about it?
- About what?
You fucking love fishing.
Uh, nothing to talk on.
Uh, yeah, three lagers.
You can just, uh, put 'em on my room.
- Thank you, sir.
- It's a real buzzkill
for everybody to have to worry
about you all the time.
I'm trying to help, man.
Okay, go finger-blast
your girlfriend, bo.
What the fuck you still doing here?
The fuck am I still doing here?
I'm looking out for you
'cause you can't take care
of your fucking self!
We came here to have a good time.
Go have a good time. I'm good.
Go.
Being related to you is
fuckin' stressful, bo.
Thank you.
Yo!
[pop music playing]
[Alex] What is the damn holdup?
What's going on, little bo?
You gonna jump in?
Scared?
There ain't nothing to be scared of.
You know, you just gotta take the plunge.
You gotta get on in and get some.
[chuckles]
Tell you what.
How about I stand right about here?
Does that feel good?
You can do it.
You think so?
Oh, I know so.
Yeah, I'm right here.
I'm gonna catch you, okay?
I'm not gonna let anything
happen to you, I promise.
Are you ready?
All right, let's do this.
Okay, one
two three!
Come on, yeah! [laughs]
There you go. I got you.
I got you, I got you.
- I did it!
- You did do it.
- That's right.
- Daddy! Dad, I did it!
- [Alex] Who's your dad?
- [dad] Whoa!
Brady, did you jump in?
Let's get you up.
- Little man was real brave.
- Nice work!
Good job, Brady!
- Thank you.
- Hey, your kid's a natural.
[waves crashing]
[Reiki healer] Do you have an intention
for today, Margaret?
Oh, it's Maggie, actually.
Oh. Thank you for letting me know.
Do you have an intention, Maggie?
Okay, so I just exhaled
a white golden light
through your crown chakra,
down your spine,
just to see how energy
is flowing through your body.
I do not feel you grounded.
I do not feel you present in your body.
All of that from touching my head.
What I am hearing right here
is disappointment.
Hmm.
Wow.
Hm. The energy here
it feels like
[inhales sharply]
like anger.
Why am I angry?
I am being asked to ask you
to see the bigger picture.
[hands rubbing]
What bigger picture?
That we are all so vast.
You are vast, Maggie.
I am?
This is a gift.
A sunstone.
[inhales sharply]
It manifests personal power.
And expanded consciousness.
[hands rubbing]
Oh, I feel like I'm opening up a cage.
Like you've been in one of those, um,
those-those travel cages like,
like an animal would be in.
But the door was never locked.
You were always free.
[ambient dinner music playing]
[Alex] Mm.
[cutlery clatters]
Mm.
[chomping]
[knife cutting against plate]
You want a bite?
No, thank you.
You want something else?
- No.
- Oh, come on.
[lips smacking]
Nothing is too good for my lady.
[Alex chomping]
[Velcro tears]
It's way too high, Mama.
[Gloria] Oh, it's just
hot out today, baby.
You ever make that appointment
with that, uh,
cardiologist in Charleston?
Oh. You know they
charge an arm and a leg.
It just It just didn't seem worth it.
I thought Miss Maggie said
she would pay for it.
They got a lot going on.
And anyway, you know how
they can be, so
Mama, this ain't going away by itself.
- [laughs] Oh, God!
- Yeah?
Hey, I take care of me.
Okay?
[Alex] Cheers.
[glasses clink]
You and Mama have a good dinner?
- Oh, it was real nice.
- Yeah?
Yeah.
You, uh
You take Brooklynn to that,
uh, what you call it?
- Katsuya.
- Katsuya.
Yeah. She likes sushi.
Yeah, I never did understand
that whole raw fish thing.
- No.
- Right there, bo.
Right there.
I wonder what kind of trouble
they're gonna get up to tonight.
I don't mind that one in the blue.
You and me both.
[both laugh]
Ooh! So, Paul make it to dinner tonight?
- No. No, he bailed.
- He did?
Yeah, I'm not sure where he's at.
I can't seem to do a thing right
with that boy.
Oh, come on, you do plenty, all right?
Paul's just
- You know, Paul's just Paul.
- Yeah.
I mean, still, I wish
I don't know.
You've been having a good time,
though right?
- Yeah, we're having a great trip.
- Oh, nice.
I'll be lucky if I get to do
the same for my family someday.
[laughs] Oh, come on.
You deserve it. You do.
I mean, getting into
law school like that,
carrying on the family line.
Real proud of you, Buster.
Thanks.
Go on.
Go on. Get on up to your room
and show that little lady
of yours a good time.
I can stay and have
another drink with you.
No, go on. She's waiting for you.
All right.
I love you, Dad.
I love you too, son.
- I'll see you in the morning.
- Yes, you will.
[exhales]
- [customer] Hi.
- [bartender] Hi.
Um, I'd like a Reposado
on the rocks, please,
with a slice of orange if you have it.
- Yes, ma'am.
- Thank you.
At least they have decent tequila here.
[chuckles]
- Thank you.
- [bartender] No problem.
Oh, I hate places like this.
Me too.
Bunch of my girlfriends
wanted to do a weekend away.
I guess this place was easy, but
I wish we had gone on
more of an adventure.
[Maggie] Mm.
You travel a lot?
Yeah, I used to.
For work.
Mm.
I miss it.
What do you do?
Pediatric cardiologist in Chicago,
but I used to work for
Doctors Without Borders in my 30s.
- Mm.
- Took me all over the world.
That must've been hard on your family.
Mm. I just brought my daughter
with me wherever I went.
How'd your husband feel about that?
[laughs]
I've never been married.
I adopted Sophie when she was a baby,
and it's just been the two of us
ever since.
I'm sorry. I assumed.
[scoffs] Please, it's fine.
So why didn't you ever marry?
I guess I, uh
never met anybody I wanted
to spend that kind of time with.
Hmm.
What about you? Are you married?
No, I'm divorced.
- Congratulations.
- [Maggie chuckles]
- Kids?
- [sighs]
No kids.
What do you do?
I'm a landscape architect.
- Wow.
- Hmm.
Yeah, I spent this last year on
this really big job in Atlanta,
and my sister said, "You need a break."
So she surprised me this weekend.
- That's sweet of her.
- Yeah, it is.
But to be honest,
I'd rather be at my beach house
with my dog.
It's, you know, really
the only place that I can be.
Just be.
Mm, sounds lovely.
Life is not perfect.
But
it is good.
And that makes me happy.
It's weird how it all happens, isn't it?
Nothing's what you think
it's gonna be like
- when you're younger.
- Lord no.
I'm Sara, by the way.
I'm Margaret.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
- Fucking Australia!
- Let's fucking go, boys.
Cheers.
Hey! Hey!
[Angus] Ladies, he's fucking buying.
This guy right here.
- [grunts]
- Hey, get a fucking video.
- Here with our new mate.
- Hey!
This man's a fucking champion.
Epic number of tequila shots,
and he's still standing.
- Fucking hilarious.
- [Paul] Oh, you know
- what would be fucking funny?
- What's that, mate?
Yo, punch me in the face.
- [laughs]
- You crack me up, mate.
No, no, no, no, no, no. Fucking do it.
- Fucking punch me in the face.
- We're not gonna lay you out.
Come on. Come on, you pussy.
Punch me in the fucking face!

Come on!
[grunts]
Let's get the fuck out of here, man.
[slurps]
Oh, thank you, bo.
[sighs]
Thank you.
[electronic music playing]
Can I buy you a drink?
- What?
- I said
I'd love to buy you a champagne!
- I'm all good, thanks.
- Yeah?
I'll get you a bottle!
It's okay!
- You staying here?
- I'm sorry, I can't hear you.
I was just saying, you got a room here?
You staying at the hotel?
I think you're in the wrong place.
[Alex] Oh, come on. Let's just have a
- No, it's okay.
- No?
[electronic door lock chimes]
[breathing heavily]
[objects clattering]
[Alex exhales]
I know you're awake, baby.
[chuckles]
- [groans]
- I know you're awake, baby.
- Mm-hmm.
- [grunts]
You wanna have a little playtime?
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Come on, I want you

Oh!
Oh, shit. Fuck, yeah. I fucking did.
Oh!
We still got it, baby.
We still got it.
Yeah, that was great.
[Alex sighs]
I love you, baby.
[Alex exhales]
[line ringing]
[cell phone vibrating]
[Gloria] Oh.
Hello?
[Paul] [on phone] Go-Go?
Paul?
Are you okay, baby?
Go-Go, what's it like in hell?
Oh, honey, it's so late.
Do you think it really hurts?
[Gloria] I Uh
God forgives you.
- He does.
- [sniffles]
No, no, no, no, no. He
He doesn't.
He does not.
[Gloria] If you accept His love
in your heart,
He'll take care of you.
Um
I don't think I have a heart.
You love me, baby. I know you do.
And God sees it, too.
He sees you every day.
Okay?
So you just have to let Him in,
and He'll look out for you.
You promise?
Oh, I promise.
Okay.
Okay.
[Gloria sighs]
[keys jingle]
Okay, I want you to give
those customers that big,
beautiful smile, okay?
Mm-hmm.
And don't pack them bags
too heavy for people to carry.
Oh, I made you bologna and cheese,
extra pickles, just how you like.
Thank you, Mama.
You're gonna have a
great first day, baby.
I know it.
[starts ignition]
[Maggie] Paw-Paw,
you're all black and blue.
- Those bruises aren't getting any better.
- I said I'm okay.
[Alex] Mama, I'm just gonna call Bruce.
Are you sure that's okay?
I could get you some ice.
[Paul] No, I said I'm okay.
[Maggie] That's good.
Did you check the account? Oh, yeah.
Listen, take what you need,
pay the credit cards.
Leave the rest for the Forge account.
All right, you know it. All right, well,
you just gotta trust in that
Big Red magic, bo.
[chuckles] I will. I'll see you soon.
[Alex sighs]
- Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!
- [cutlery clanks on glass]
I'd like to propose a toast.
This is the last meal
of the Murdaugh family vacay for 2019.
And I hope you've all enjoyed
yourselves, I really do.
Now Brooklynn,
it's been great gettin' to know you,
darling, it really has.
And I hope you know
we all love you, all right?
Buster, big man, I know you're
gonna continue to make us proud.
Hell, he gonna probably
end up right at the top of his law class.
I hope so.
To my wife.
- To my Maggie.
- Hmm.
I love you, baby.
You are the most beautiful woman,
and all that an old man
like me could hope for.
And to Paw-Paw, we love you, son.
We do.
And here's to weathering the storm.
Cheers.
- [all] Cheers.
- [Alex] Come on, get in there.
[glasses clink]
- [whistle blows]
- [upbeat calypso music playing]
Bo, this is for you.
[whistle blowing]
[blowing whistle]
Ooh. Whoa!
[sound muffled]
[boat motor roaring]
Whoo!
Get Get off. Get the fuck off of me!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa!
- [music stops]
Jesus! Chill.
- You okay?
- Yeah.
What the fuck's the matter
with you now, huh?
This a little bit too much fun
for you, bo?
You can't enjoy yourself
unless you're ruining shit
for everybody else, is that it?
- Fuck you.
- Fuck me? Fuck you!
- [Maggie] Hey, hey, hey.
- No, no, no, no, no.
You got any idea, any idea
what this thing costs?
How hard I got to work
to bring you on a trip like this?
I didn't ask to fucking come here!
And all you got to do is
to sit back and enjoy yourself.
But, oh, no.
You got to be a little pussy
- Okay.
- in case for just one fuckin' minute,
we all forget what a gigantic
fuckup you really are.
If I'm such a fuckup, why'd you
give me the keys to the boat?
You' saying it's my fault,
you little piece of shit?
- [Maggie] Alec, it was an accident.
- [Alex] Hm? No, no, no, no.
Get over here, you little fucking pussy.
Say that to my face.
- Get the fuck over here, big boy.
- It's nobody's fault. Okay?
- It was an accident.
- No, you
No, you're just as bad as he is.
What are you saying?
Yeah, you just want to pretend
nothing bad happened.
Baby, I'm on your side.
We're all on your side.
We're trying to be understanding.
You don't want to understand shit.
No, all you care about
All you care about is how things look
to your fucking friends!
Paul, lay off, all right? Lay off, okay?
- You're embarrassing us.
- [Paul] Oh, am I?
Am I embarrassing you?
Who the fuck made you the president?
When are you gonna realize you're not
the only person in this fuckin' family.
Don't fucking talk to me
about being in a family, bo.
You're never fucking around.
You know what it's like for me
to be in the house
with the two of them when you're gone?
How fucked up it is? No, you know what?
You're right. I don't give
a fuck about you,
because you don't actually give
a fuck about me.
[Maggie] Shh, shh!
Baby, you've been through a lot.
And your daddy and I, we are
gonna make sure that all of this
misunderstanding goes away,
but it's gonna take some time.
Oh, my God! Mama, what is
the misunderstanding?
I'm the reason that Mallory is dead.
Okay?
Okay?
And it's not going away,
because that is what happened.
- No
- It happened. That's who I am now.
[sighs]
Hope your family enjoyed
their stay, Mr. Murdaugh.
We sure did.
Uh, it put on this.
[cell phone vibrates]
One second.
Gabriel, how the hell are you?
Hey, listen, yeah, I'm sorry
I didn't get back to you sooner,
but I've been out of town on business.
No, no, no, it hasn't.
Settlement hasn't hit the account yet.
I know, I do. These
These insurance companies,
they move like molasses.
But, you know, not to worry none, okay?
I'm gonna I'm gonna
keep right on top of it.
All right, okay, but listen.
No, I know how bad you
need the money. I do.
And you and Miss Luna
are always on my mind.
Just, just know that, alright?
Yeah.
I will. I'll be sure to let you
know as soon as it comes in. Alright.
Good morning.
Oh, good morning. Look at my new shoes.
What do you think?
Oh, I like them.
Yeah, I got them this morning
at the gift shop.
Thought I'd try something new.
Y'all ready? Loading up the car.
Yeah, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Did you get your photo yet?
[scoffs] Let's just go, Alec.
No, we don't. Mama likes to get
a little family picture
at the end of every trip.
Okay, come on, Paw-Paw,
let's get up. Come on, come on.
- [Maggie] Come on.
- [Alex] Come on, Brooklynn, let's do this.
- Get in here. Okay, big buddy bo.
- [Buster] Come on, bo.
- You mind gettin' a picture of all of us?
- It's one picture, come on.
[Alex] Hey, my man, you mind taking
a photo for us, bo?
Come on, Paw-Paw, get in here
and take a photo with your mama.
- Come on.
- No, Brooklynn, come on.
- Get in here.
- [Brooklynn] You sure?
Of course, we want you in.
All right, we ready now?
All right, everybody
say, "Kokomo!"
[all] Kokomo!
[insects chirruping]
[Alex] Hey, Go-Go.
Mr. Alec, how was the trip?
Oh, we had a great time, Go. We did.
I mean, it was
I mean, if I had to say anything
I think we might've had
too much of a good time.
- If you catch my meaning.
- Oh!
[laughs] I think I know how it is!
- Yeah, I bet you do.
- [both chuckle]
Oh, yeah.
Well, listen, Go, we got
in pretty late last night,
and I was too tired to bring in the bags.
If you wouldn't mind just
unloading them from my truck.
- Help me get a jump on my day.
- Oh, sure thing.
All right All right, then.
All right, I'm off.
Oh, and hey, Go.
I think Maggie might've
got you something.
You might want to
check on the table.
[cell phone chimes]
"Off on the way should go,
and even when they're old,
they will not turn from it."
Fair enough.
[Mark Tinsley] Uh-oh. Hey, hey.
Oh! Hey!
If it ain't big-game-huntin' Mark.
- How are we doing?
- How it do, bo?
Can't complain.
You want a waffle taco?
- No.
- Oh, come on, I insist.
- No.
- Come on, get a bite.
Trying to look out for my health.
Too bad.
- Brought extra gravy, huh?
- [laughs] I did, I did.
You remember when we went
huntin' with those Lambert boys?
Little one shot the big one in
the foot with my daddy's 10/22.
[laughs]
I still think he walks funny.
I offer to carry him on my back
every time I see him.
- You do not!
- I do.
Good thing he says
no. He's a big ol' boy.
[both laugh]
Mm.
What brings you in, Mark?
Well, you heard I was representing
Renee and Phillip Beach.
Yes, sir, I did.
And let me tell you,
I was very happy to hear
they're being represented
by such a righteous attorney as yourself.
Thank you.
[sighs]
The Beaches feel like
Mallory had her whole life
in front of her.
She did.
I'm sorry, but they decided
to file a lawsuit.
I got a process server waiting outside.
Figured you'd want to finish
your breakfast.
- That's mighty kind of you.
- The least I can do.
I do. I appreciate it.
But listen, there's no need to apologize.
We're gonna get all this sorted out.
Great.
I'll be waiting to discuss the settlement
once you got your ducks in a row.
Enjoy those tacos now.
[country music playing]

[loud crash]
[dogs barking]
[tense music playing]
Mama! Mama! Go-Go fell!
[suspenseful music playing]
Sub extracted from file & improved
[Alex] [echoing]
It won't happen again.
I promise.
They need to pay.
You need to resolve this.
It's starting to feel like the walls
are just getting closer and closer
and I can't breathe.
[Randolph] The only cards
you're playing with now
is the hand that you dealt yourself.
[Mandy]
We have their attention now.
We keep up the pressure, and that's
how we're gonna end up with the truth.
[Alex] Whatever happens,
we gotta have each other's backs.
Family first.
What kind of man would let this happen
to his family?
Somebody's out there huntin' us.
[Randy] The state grand jury
is opening an investigation
into a possible cover-up.
Do you have any idea
the damage you've done?
Your sons love you.
Please, pull yourself together.
- [Randolph] You're a Murdaugh.
- [dog barking]
The truth is irrelevant.
