FUBAR (2023) s01e05 Episode Script

Here Today, Gone To-Marrow

1
[ominous music playing]
Tom Welling, Brandon Routh,
Henry Cavill, Tyler Hoechlin.
[man screams]
Okay, now from best to worst.
Christopher Reeve, Tom Welling
I'm back. Sorry for the delay.
Where were we?
I don't wanna do more magazine quizzes.
[Tina] Come on, just a few more questions.
Why are you so determined
on distracting me?
Well, there's a small issue
with the Great Dane.
Exactly how bad is your heart condition?
Emma and I, we gotta track down the MNR.
Aldon, Roo, you find the Dane,
fly him back to prison,
and swap him out for Barry.
Only 45 minutes to head count.
We gotta steal a car and hit it.
[tense music playing]
[Tina] Officer Brunner?
- Yes.
- Yeah.
DOD rushed satellite tracking
of the reactor's nuclear signature.
It pinged 12 miles east of your location.
- Sending coordinates now.
- Copy that.
[Aldon] Here's the search perimeter.
He doesn't have an ID,
so he won't go to the airport.
Seaport's a no-go.
He'd need money to buy a stowaway slot.
There's no chance we're finding
that toe-blasting bastard by sunrise.
Just call in the NIS already.
You really wanna flag the Greek government
that we smuggled
a nuclear reactor onto their soil?
You're just scared of your ex.
She sang me the entire
Mamma Mia! soundtrack on my voicemail.
I'll play it. It's 57 minutes.
I love crazy women.
Can you give her my number?
Good call on the seaport.
I get motion sickness.
Whoa!
It's just a teddy.
We thought you were cool, Dane.
I am cool. It's just I knew
I was going back to prison again.
No way you'd leave Barry in danger,
and I'd already set up the meet,
so you guys would figure it out, so I ran.
Then it hit me,
what kind of life is that for my family?
To be a fugitive
from NIS and Interpol and CIA?
Better to go back and finish my sentence
than curse my son with a life on the lam.
I can get anything I want in prison.
Oddly enough, the only thing I can't get
is a teddy bear that doesn't have
a glory hole cut out the bottom.
Maybe you could just give that to my son.
Be happy to.
My empathy for you died with my toe.
Now come on,
you're going back to Turkey, turkey.
I read this thing about a doctor
that regrew a guy's penis
on the guy's arm.
- Maybe you could grow your
- I'm gonna kill him.
[Tina] Good news, they found the Dane.
They're on their way.
[alarm blaring]
[uptempo instrumental music playing]
They better hurry
'cause inspection just started.
There it is, end of the street.
Tina, what's the intel?
Address has SARs on everything,
from stolen cars to stolen guns
to stolen people.
It is bad mama-jama territory.
- Be careful.
- [Aldon] Backup's on the way.
Just gotta steal a car first.
[Luke] Boro's meeting in 30.
- We gotta go in there now.
- [Aldon] Copy.
Emma, be safe.
I'm good.
Sure seem concerned
about my daughter's safety.
What?
Comms. Static.
Everyone is gonna be strapped inside.
I'm point.
Your AOR is behind and right,
and mine is ahead and left.
But watch your six.
Remember that time
we sang "Teddy Bear Picnic"
at the father-daughter talent show?
- Yeah.
- That was harder than this'll be.
Let's fuck 'em up, Dad.
[Greek folk music playing]
[in Greek] Maybe it's a computer.
Or part of a rocket or something.
[hard rock music playing]
Oh shit!
If you go down to the woods today,
You'd better go in disguise ♪
For every bear that ever there was ♪
[grunts]
Today's the day
The teddy bears have their picnic ♪
[man 1 grunts]
[man 2 grunts]
That's the way
The teddy bears have their picnic ♪
Picnic time for teddy bears ♪
To have a lovely time today ♪
Watch them, catch them unawares ♪
And see them picnic on their holiday ♪
[both grunting]
If you're dancing
Through the woods today ♪
You'd better not go alone ♪
It's lovely down in the woods today
But safer to stay at home ♪
For every bear that ever there was ♪
Will gather there for certain because ♪
Today's the day the teddy bears ♪
[man screams]
[song ends]
[Emma panting]
- [in English] Are you okay?
- All in one piece.
So is this.
Aldon, we got the package.
Coming to pick you up for the meet.
I don't think the idea's gonna fly
of Aldon posing as Dane's personal valet.
I mean, I know Boro well enough
that if he doesn't see a dude showing up
that looks like Zach Galifianakis,
he's gonna drive right by.
We gotta prove to him
- that the Great Dane is there.
- [man grunts]
[man groans]
[in Greek] Hey.
[rhythmic instrumental music playing]
You kinda look like someone I know.
[in English] All right.
Hurry up
because if anything happens to Barry,
I will get you transferred
to an even worse Turkish prison.
The one with no windows
that only gets Showtime.
Understood.
But first I want you to have this.
I got it at the sundry store
where I found the teddy.
It goes on your piggies
and strengthens the toes you have left.
Wow, I don't even know what to say.
It's fine.
Are you shitting me?
You think you can win me back
with an impulse CVS buy?
Get in the vent.
I'm gonna hesitate
next time I think of buying you a gift.
Get in the vent.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Emma in Greek] Keep it together.
[Aldon in English] Mr. Polonia.
- Right on schedule.
- Who the hell are you?
Emissary of our friend, the Dane.
His test results are pending,
so he's keeping his distance
for your safety and his.
If he got his most elite client sick,
he'd be ruined.
Never seen the Dane so tan.
Greek beaches, am I right?
[in Danish] Great Dane, my friend,
when you're feeling better,
how about we party again
like old times, eh?
[in Greek] Fire some
finger guns.
Those are jazz hands!
Finger guns!
[Boro laughing]
[in English] That's my Dane. You madman.
[Geiger counter beeping]
What's wrong with him?
[groans]
Your father-in-law's stupid crack wax
isn't holding his wound shut.
He's bleeding.
Don't open the box! [grunts]
Dad.
[guns firing]
[Boro grunts]
[both grunt]
Aldon, we're on our way.
I got it handled. Get Boro. [grunts]
Shit, he's all over the place.
[exhales]
Let's see what you got, big'un.
[both grunting]
[Aldon grunting]
[Barry] Tina,
I want you to know
- You're not the Great Dane.
- I know, right?
[screams]
[both grunting]
Why won't you go down? [grunts]
[Aldon grunts, groans]
[Aldon yells]
- [gun fires]
- [muffled] Oh no!
No. Oh God. Dick on my face. [grunts]
[panting, spits]
What?
[tense music playing]
Diana?
Mamma Mia ♪
Here I go again ♪
My, my, how can I resist you? ♪
- [engine revs]
- Called it.
[dramatic music playing]
Shoot him in the calf.
We got to find out who his buyers are.
[music builds, ends]
- [doors open, close]
- [suspenseful music playing]
- [snoring]
- [Luke] See?
Just like the girl from the prom.
Boro passed out on animal tranqs,
Jenny Pepperman drank two Michelob Lights
and rode her bike into Willow Pond.
Exactly.
[Boro snores]
[Barry straining]
- White Lotus!
- [man grunts]
[Barry breathing heavily]
Don't molest the dead. It's gross.
- I didn't mean to.
- Relax.
It's not like anyone's gonna miss
Old Cavity-Search Constantine.
Hurry up and get that body up here.
I'll hide it behind the vent
near Cyrus the Cannibal's cell.
We are gonna have to take a couple bites
out of him just to sell it.
[chuckles] I'm joking.
But we will have to fit that large man
through this small hole.
[Barry] Tina
I haven't been completely honest with you.
When I said I wanted to impress you
because you were new on the team,
that was a lie.
I wanted to impress you because I
like you.
And the problem is,
I'm not the most impressive guy.
I'm a mediocre oboist
who's auditioned for Wheel of Fortune
four times and never been picked.
Despite that, I was wondering
if maybe when we get back,
you wanna go on a date with me.
[chuckles]
I thought you'd never ask.
I'll see you when you get back.
And Barry, Pat Sajak's a dick.
[laughs]
I know you were really scared today.
I wanted to be brave, but, you know,
Turkish prison.
You don't understand what I'm saying.
And who is braver?
The guy that does something
that he's not scared of,
or the guy that is scared of something
and does it anyway?
You were badass today.
I'm proud of you.
Thanks, Luke.
[sniffs]
What's that smell?
White Lotus by Elizabeth DuVray.
- It ruins the moment.
- [door opens]
- How's the prisoner?
- Roo just showed him her toe.
Pretty sure that violates
the Geneva Convention.
[Aldon groans]
- That ape banged you up pretty good.
- No, no, no.
It's just a strained rotator cuff.
Used to happen all the time
when I played ball.
Just gotta tough it out.
[winces, groans]
[Luke] You should put some ice on it.
- Now.
- [Aldon] Yes, sir.
Okay. [groans]
Great. Good thinking.
[door closes]
If you go down to the woods today ♪
- You're sure of a big surprise ♪
- [Luke laughs]
- [Emma chuckles]
- We should have won that talent contest.
Rachel Dunlop
with her stupid magician father?
- Such bullshit.
- Your mother was really mad.
Her getting up and booing
when they got the trophy.
[both laughing]
You asked before if I would have taken
a desk job to keep your mother.
I should have taken a desk job.
I should have scrubbed toilets.
I should have dug ditches.
I should have done anything
to hold on to your mother.
[gentle piano music playing]
Would you do the same for Carter?
I won't have to.
I'm not gonna make the same mistake
as you and Mom.
I don't wanna hurt him.
Remember when you were little
and you gave Oscar a piggyback,
and he fell
and started crying and screaming,
and the doctor asked me to hold him down
while he's putting the stitches in him?
I couldn't do it.
I couldn't stand the idea of hurting him,
so I sat in the car
while your mother did it.
Oscar called her "Mean Mama" for a week.
Pain is part of love.
Barry went to prison for Tina,
and he just likes her.
And the Dane went back to prison
because he loves his son.
It broke my heart
when your mom and I got divorced.
She didn't wanna divorce you.
She just wanted a present husband.
And I couldn't be that.
So
I let the marriage go.
For her.
And if you love Carter,
you would do exactly the same thing.
The longer you drag it on,
the more you're gonna hurt him.
It's just my opinion.
But I know
it is your decision.
[light instrumental music playing]
[music ends]
- [phone vibrates, rings]
- Oh.
- Is Boro talking yet?
- [Dot] No.
But right now I'm more concerned
with why my top operative
thought it was a good idea
to hire his ex at his cover job.
- You know?
- [Dot] I'm a regional CIA director.
I know your milk's gone bad before you do.
I also know Tally's been poking around
Merry Fitness' paperwork.
[Luke] Tally was trying to get a job,
and I'm trying to win her back.
So, um, I know it was not a smart idea.
No, it wasn't.
But we may be in the clear.
Seems she's stopped digging.
[door opens]
[ominous music playing]
I'm not so sure about that.
We have to talk.
Before you say anything,
let me explain to you
[exhales] It's Romi.
[melancholic music playing]
She's sick.
[Sandy sniffles]
I don't know, some kind of
adverse reaction to the chemo.
She's gonna need bone marrow
sooner than we thought.
I hate that I wasn't a match.
- How's your donor drive idea?
- [Carter] I talked to the superintendent.
He hasn't gotten back to me yet.
Um, I do know that they tend to worry
about liability issues with these things.
A child is dying.
I know. I told him it was for my niece.
I begged him.
Said he had to talk to the lawyers.
Look, if your school district
got behind this,
we could reach 10,000 people in a day.
I swear to you, I am doing the best I can.
Okay, look, I gotta take another call.
Just get it done.
[Carter] I will do my best.
- I I love you
- [line beeps]
H Hello?
[slurping]
[Luke] Hi, Kyle.
I'm Samantha.
- Wh What the hell is this?
- Hi, Kyle.
Oh, I get it.
You're her old man,
but you can't raise the kickstand anymore,
so now you just like to watch?
We're here about Sandy Yoon.
The woman you knocked up and ghosted.
Okay, in my defense, the condom broke.
It's not my fault the chick kept the kid.
She's not some chick.
She's my daughter-in-law
and the mother of my grandchild.
Her name is Romi, and she has leukemia.
She needs bone marrow.
You might be a match.
Hey, even if she's not lying
and I was this kid's dad
No, my son is her dad.
He's been Romi's father
since he met Sandy,
eight months pregnant and alone,
crying in the romance section
of a bookstore, thanks to you.
You're just a sperm donor.
Now you're gonna be responsible
for the first time in your life,
and you're gonna help my granddaughter.
And my niece.
And my grandniece.
Thanks, Kyle.
I'll get this to the lab.
We're gonna let you know
if you're a match.
[Dot] Before we begin,
I've just been informed, unfortunately,
no one in this regional branch
is a match for Romi.
But I've personally reached out
across the agency.
We're getting more swabs as we speak.
Thank you very much, Director.
I appreciate your support.
Now, let's focus on Boro.
Boo!
That guy sucks.
[Dot] As an enemy combatant,
Mr. Polonia has no rights
under the Geneva Convention.
Technically, since he's in transit,
we could hold him indefinitely.
Boro has ties
with multiple terrorist groups
interested in purchasing his weapons,
from the Middle East, to the Far East,
to right here at home.
He's sitting on a trove of intel,
and we need to do
whatever it takes to mine it.
As such,
I've submitted a request to the DOJ
to employ enhanced
interrogation techniques.
We're awaiting a PDD.
- You down with PDD?
- Yeah, you know me.
Presidential Decision Directive
for authorization for torture?
That's a line that government
should never cross.
Is that why you're against it,
or is it 'cause it'd be used against Boro?
What does that mean?
I'm just saying, you paid for his school,
you looked after him from afar
I mean you have a soft spot.
[scoffs] That's ridiculous.
He was a kid that needed help.
That's it and that's all.
He was, and now he's a dangerous man
with dangerous friends.
I say we turn the screws on him.
[Luke] It's always easy to support torture
when you haven't seen it
from five feet away like I have.
I agree with your dad, Emma.
There are parameters.
In the canon of most superheroes,
they only torture as a last resort.
Oh, ixnay on the nerd itshay.
[Aldon] I agree with Luke.
I think there are better ways
to get info out of someone.
You gonna honeypot Boro?
I'm just saying,
you don't run headfirst into torture.
It's a big step.
I spent months on this guy's compound.
I know him better than anyone here.
Boro only understands violence.
So let's give it to him.
It physically pains me to say this,
but Princess Emma's right.
This dickbag tried to kill
almost everyone in this room.
How are Covergirl and I
the only one with balls in here?
[Dot] Well, the point is moot
till we get that PDD.
In the meantime,
I'm putting Carlson on standby.
Carlson? Ooh, that guy be creepy.
Excuse me, sir. Excuse me.
You didn't corral your cart.
- Carts go in the cart corral.
- What?
Your cart rolled off
and it dinged my PT Cruiser.
Piss off.
Boy, that just creams my corn.
[man grunting]
[man groaning]
[phone vibrates]
Yello. Norm Carlson here.
Outstanding.
Yeah, I just re-upped on supplies too.
- [Norm grunts]
- [man groans]
[door opens]
[footsteps approaching]
Look at this.
A reunion.
Me, Finn, Danielle,
whatever your real names are.
I invited you into my home,
clothed you, fed you.
And you, Finn, I never once lied to you,
not even when I said I loved you.
I looked up to you,
and you kill my only living parent.
Now you chain me up.
Tell me, who's the bad guy?
The one selling nukes to terrorists?
- Now listen to me, Bengal
- Don't "Bengal" me.
Let me ask you something.
Did you ever care for me at all?
Or were you just acting
to curry favor with my father?
And once you killed him,
you took care of things for me
out of guilt to assuage your conscience.
I cared for you then,
and I care for you now.
That's why I'm trying to tell you
that there's a man coming
to inflict tremendous pain on you.
Pain unimaginable,
using methods that slide through
the tiniest loopholes in our legal system.
I'm fighting to stop that.
[Emma] And I'm cheering for it
like it's homecoming.
I don't care if a Ginsu knife salesman
shoves his entire sample case
up your ass to get you to talk.
Danielle, bring it down a notch, okay?
[Boro] Listen to the man, Dani.
I am a shark.
You caught a shark. Good for you.
But play my way,
and I can catch you many blue whales
who all wanna get their fins
on my suitcase bomb.
The auction is in stasis.
One signal from me,
I could lead them all right to you.
What are the conditions?
Captivity on my terms.
House arrest in Bora Bora,
assets remain untouched.
A waterproof ankle bracelet
for dips in the ocean.
Still a prison,
just surrounded by white sands
instead of iron bars.
And when we say no?
My buyers are off in the wind,
get their nukes elsewhere,
and you have countless deaths
on your hands.
You'll be lucky if we get you
a six-by-eight in Leavenworth.
[phone vibrates]
We will consider it.
Come.
[door opens]
Hey. What are you thinking?
We're not making a deal with him.
Kyle is a match.
[Tally exhales]
Creamer. We need creamer.
Yes.
Your mother's freaking out.
You don't look too good either.
Well, I got a sick kid
and a frantic wife at the hospital.
- What if he says no?
- He's gonna say yes.
What if he wants to see Romi
or wants visitation?
What if he wants custody?
[Luke] Romi is your daughter.
Get your act together and calm down.
You hear me?
I'm gonna help Mom in the kitchen.
[exhales]
[in German] Sissy.
[Donnie in English] Sorry I'm late.
- Oh, hey.
- Oh.
Emma, Barry, Luke.
- Bean dip.
- Yeah.
Thanks very much.
Very kind of you to drop this off.
[spluttering] No, hold on.
I was invited to be here.
You must be confused
because this is family only.
- Barry's here.
- Well, Barry's family.
Damn straight.
- What's going on?
- He's just dropping off bean dip.
No, no, no, no.
I invited Donnie here for support.
I don't want Kyle to feel like
he's walking into a buzz saw
with all the people around here.
It's on a need-to-be-here basis.
Okay, Luke, please.
How do we even explain
Donald's relationship to Romi?
- Mom's husband's mother's boyfriend?
- [Tally] I'll take care of it.
Tally, it's fine. I don't wanna make
a difficult situation worse.
I'll be the bigger man and go.
- Can you walk me out?
- Sure.
- I'll, um, call you tomorrow.
- Yeah.
You must be Kyle.
Yeah. Hi.
Do the right thing.
[Tally] Kyle, hi.
It's nice to meet you.
Please come in.
[tense music playing]
[exhales]
[music builds, ends]
- I'll do it.
- Thank you.
But my buddy's a doctor,
and he told me there's risks.
Infection, nerve damage
My livelihood could be impacted,
so I think it's only fair
that we discuss cost.
Our insurance covers everything.
I don't mean the cost of the procedure.
I mean my cost.
Missed work, recovery time
- How much?
- Hundred fifty thousand.
[exhales] We can't afford that.
Mm. Pretty nice house.
You got a couple cars in the driveway.
You can figure it out.
I'm not gonna risk my life for nothing
just to save some kid I've never even met.
- You sneaky son of a bitch.
- Emma.
He doesn't give a shit about Romi.
He's doing this for a payday.
Emma, you hit him, he walks out that door,
and Romi doesn't get what she needs.
Think it over. You have my number,
and you have my number.
What just happened?
- Oh, now you talk.
- What does that mean?
Your kid is sick,
and you stand there and say nothing.
- Emma, that's not helpful.
- Dad told me to stay calm.
Who are you to talk to me like that?
You don't have a child.
You don't know what I'm going through.
Just shut up, Emma.
- Don't talk to your sister like that.
- Of course you stick up for her.
She's the son you always wanted.
[Tally] He's gonna be okay.
Luke, you're gonna have to sell your ship.
[Luke] It won't fetch
the kind of money he wants.
- [Tally] Really?
- It could take months to find a buyer.
What about a second mortgage?
- We already took one out years ago.
- Oh.
[Tally] What are we gonna do?
Don't worry.
I'm not gonna let anything happen
to our granddaughter.
I promise.
Okay. [exhales]
Oh my God. [breathes shakily]
What's a kindergartener doing
with a six-figure uncut diamond?
This is just a little souvenir
from Antwerp.
I felt bad that I missed her recital.
Antwerp? Is that a conflict diamond?
If you call killing a bunch of guys
in a warehouse a conflict.
I mean, It's no big deal.
It's no different than me
getting you the necklace for graduation.
You mean for missing my graduation?
Because all your gifts
were apologies for you being gone.
I see what this is all about.
You wanted to go after Boro,
you wanted to kick Kyle's ass,
and you couldn't do either,
so you're pissed off at me.
You could not be more off base.
I feel bad for you.
All the mistakes you made
with Oscar and me,
you're making the same ones with Romi,
and you don't even realize it.
God forbid something happens to her,
and you'll
You'll have blown your second chance
at getting it right.
[gentle piano music playing]
Hey, hey! Look what I got.
Found it at a tag sale.
I was looking for something
to cheer Romi up.
A rocking horse? Carter, the kid
can barely lift her head off her pillow.
I know, it's just for when she's better.
- Are you okay?
- Not really.
You said you'd do a donor drive,
not not do arts and crafts.
Okay. I Wow.
Um, I really thought
you said Kyle was a match.
I never said he'd donate,
and now he won't until we pay him.
I didn't know that.
It's fine. We'll
I will make some more calls.
I'm spinning a million plates,
and I just asked you to handle
this one thing.
Okay. Okay, okay. Look, look.
Em, you are somebody
who likes to control everything.
From academics, to your career,
to picking a handsome fiancé
who just kind of goes with the flow.
I think you're having a hard time
with the fact that
you can't control Romi's illness.
So why don't you stain this horse with me
and just take five minutes
to think about something else?
Right.
Yeah, okay.
'Cause the one thing every sick child
wants is a toy from the Renaissance.
I was just looking for someone
who could lighten my load a little bit.
No, no. Wait, Emma
[footsteps departing]
Nice to meet you, Mr. Polonia.
Name's Norm.
That art store has so many things
and so many aisles.
I had a dickens of a time
finding the right glitter glue. [chuckles]
Someone should make an app for that.
Norwegian krumkakers.
My mormor's recipe.
Let me know if you want me
to pop one in your mouth for ya.
Suit yourself.
This is worth $300,000.
All you have to do is go to the hospital,
take some tests, make a donation,
and this is yours.
I'm gonna walk into
that jewelry store over there.
Guy says it's real
you got a deal.
Oh, no backsies.
If you say yes,
the doctors are gonna set
everything in motion,
and they're gonna kill
Romi's immune system.
If she doesn't get a donation
within the next 24 hours, she'll die,
and so will you.
I know. Nothing's gonna happen to the kid.
I knew we could trust you.
[Norm] I know this looks pretty,
but there's a unique blend
of bonding agents to these art supplies.
They're gonna feel like
a line of fire ants
marching right up your ding dong.
Now let's get those slacks off.
Stop. We're pulling the plug.
I have a 24-hour cancellation policy.
You will be paid in full.
Boro,
let's cut a deal.
- What the hell?
- An extradition order came down from OFAC.
We lose custody of Boro in 48 hours.
I have to make a deal.
This is horseshit!
Tell OFAC to O-fuck themselves.
See, I don't get the luxury
of flying off the handle,
being unprofessional,
and cursing at my superiors
when I don't get what I want.
We have him right in that room.
You can't
It is not your place to tell me
what I can and cannot do, Officer Brunner.
And let me be clear,
you raise your voice again
to me in my building,
you'll have a choice
between tech support and unemployment.
Am I clear?
Yeah.
You okay?
[Luke] What the hell is
the Office of Foreign Assets Control doing
sending a South American terrorist
that was arrested by Americans in Greece
to Zimbabwe, of all places?
Boro supplied the explosives
that were used in a terrorist attack
in Harare four years ago.
There's enough corruption there.
He will most likely buy his way
out of incarceration within weeks.
But the US wants to play nice
with the Zimbabwe government
to access lithium mines
in the Masvingo Province.
It's always about money, isn't it?
If we want Boro's buyers,
there's no time to waste.
He will cooperate if we agree
never to prosecute him for crimes,
known and unknown,
prior to the date of the agreement.
So if we discover that he blew up
an orphanage a year ago,
we couldn't touch him?
Correct.
But we don't have to tell him
about the extradition order to Zimbabwe.
Once his African pals drop all the charges
against him, he'll be a free man.
Free to continue business as usual.
Free to be nailed for whatever
twisted nonsense he gets up to next.
All right, it's not perfect,
but I'm trying to turn chickenshit
into chicken salad here.
Maybe you can explain that
to your daughter.
Emma's having a real tough day.
She's so pissed about Boro
and very upset about Romi.
Not an excuse.
I'm telling you as her senior officer,
not as her father,
keep her in line.
[Luke] Understood.
But I hope that you know
how good she really is.
She's invaluable to the team.
She's a quick problem-solver.
She has guts. She has great instincts,
and I'm saying that as a senior officer
and as her father.
Thank you for the evaluation.
You're welcome.
And thank you for being on my side,
eighty-sixing the torture.
Oh, I didn't take anybody's side.
Frankly, I'm the only one in this building
who's earned the right
to have an opinion on torture.
[dramatic music playing]
This was not an IED, was it?
Whatever they did to you,
you obviously withstood it.
You did your duty.
Whatever happened to you is your business,
but this conversation never took place.
Thank you.
I'll owe you one.
[Luke] Steak from Mastro's,
milkshake from Bob's Big Boy.
Now, talk.
Uh, the buyers and I communicate
via an encrypted dark web message board.
They're pinged
once I upload an authentication video
of myself with the bomb
to prove it's operational.
How do you prove it's operational?
State-sponsored satellite,
one of America's many enemies,
one of my many allies.
It can trace the bomb's
unique nuclear signature
and send verification to the buyers.
All I need is my weapon.
Your suitcase nuke has been disarmed,
but it still has active nuclear material.
But we won't allow an enemy
to ping our HQ.
- We shoot the video off-site.
- Fine by me.
Once the video is online,
interested buyers will confirm
with ice cube emojis,
indicating everything's cool.
You track their IP addresses,
exact locations, commence raids.
I promised you whales.
My customer list
is a who's who
of the world's baddest leviathans.
I'm sorry that you turned out this way.
I turned out this way
because you killed Omar Polonia.
He was a dangerous man.
But by killing him, I deprived
a little sweet boy of his father.
I thought I could fill that space
with peanut brittle and gifts
and sending you to school,
but every kid needs a father figure there.
So quality time with you
would've made me a different man?
Quality time is a lie peddled
by busy parents to alleviate guilt.
It's quantity time that counts.
So you're there for the wounded knees,
and doing science projects,
falling asleep watching cartoons together.
I'm sorry I deprived you
of all of these wonderful things.
Do you regret killing my father?
No, but I regret what it did to you.
- I still think this deal's a mistake.
- I know.
That's why I want you to sit this one out.
Go to the hospital and support the family.
They need you there.
Plus, you're too upset and distracted
right now to be in the field.
I've been working Boro for months.
What did you tell me
about choosing work over family?
It's too late for me, but not for you.
Take Aldon with you to the hospital.
Aldon, get your shoulder checked.
Injured, you're no good to me.
Yes, sir.
And Roo and I,
we're gonna take Boro upstate.
Oh yeah. Tag team back again.
Keep me updated, okay?
Yeah.
- [Luke] Come.
- [Roo] All right.
[suspenseful music playing]
[door closes]
[Luke] Okay, Boro, time for your close-up.
As soon as this video is posted,
our source will confirm that this device
contains legitimate nuclear material.
Interested parties, you know the drill.
Bonne chance.
[camera beeps]
Okay, the video will be uploaded
to the darkest of the web in a minute.
[phone ringing, vibrating]
What's going on?
Kyle flaked. No one can find him.
[Luke]
I knew that SOB couldn't be trusted.
Get in touch with Ops.
They know where he is.
Okay.
[Luke] Now, Emma, just be smart
with the way you handle him.
Just keep your cool.
We still need his help.
Yeah.
- [line beeps]
- [Emma sighs]
[softly] Fuck.
Director, Boro's video
is live to the underworld.
We'll be tracking scumbags in no time.
Copy that.
Dot's on her way.
What's up with Kyle?
Got him.
Car's parked at a bar in Chappaqua.
The Roundabout.
- That's where we met him.
- Thank you, Tina.
Jeez, little girl's dying,
this guy's pounding brewskies?
Just drive faster.
Hey, uh, just wanted to say
thanks for helping us track Kyle,
and sorry for pushing our second date.
Second?
First one only lasted two bites of pizza
before we got the call about Romi.
But if I say our second date,
it moves things forward.
And I, uh want things to move forward.
Same.
Whenever you're ready for date número dos,
you know where I'll be.
[computer beeps]
[dramatic music playing]
Ice cube in Yemen.
Everything's cool in Syria.
[exhales]
- You're in the wrong place.
- Shit.
My father gave you something valuable.
Now you have to give
something valuable to us.
Actually,
I don't have to do anything, okay?
Hey, man, kudos for getting
those tests done. Takes guts.
But I'm guessing once the docs listed
the cover-their-ass,
one-in-a-million procedure risk,
it got too real, and you ran.
And there's no shame in that, man.
You're human.
But that kid is your responsibility
I'm just a sperm donor, like her pop said.
And as such, I'm under no legal obligation
to follow through.
My buddy did two years at Touro Law School
and he told me so, so
Oh, what'd your buddy say
about stealing diamonds?
That possession is nine-tenths of the law.
- Oh.
- Look, I'm planted here, okay?
What you gonna do about it?
I'm gonna strike your Adam's apple,
making it impossible for you to talk.
Your head'll drop instinctively,
and we'll drag you out of here
like you're our buddy on a breakup bender.
In 30 seconds,
you'll be in the trunk of our car,
in five, you'll be wishing
you'd come voluntarily,
and in two, I'm hitting ya.
Oh, you mean business, huh, sweetheart?
- [grunts]
- [Aldon] Okay, here we go.
Oh, sorry, folks.
Girlfriend dumped him tonight, huh?
One too many. [laughs]
There we go.
- Sending coordinates in Mukalla.
- Ditto for Damascus.
Units from Al-Tanf and Lemonnier
are incoming.
[Barry] SEALs have landed in Islamabad.
- [Dot] Hold until all units are in place.
- [phone ringing]
What's going on?
- We picked up our friend.
- [muffled grunting]
He's still a little hesitant.
- [Kyle] Hey, let me out of here!
- Uh
Just figured a a workout
might clear his mind.
Bringing in a personal trainer.
Norm?
It's your call.
I trust your instincts.
- [Kyle yelling, hitting trunk]
- Thank you.
[Kyle] Goddamn, let me out!
[phone vibrates]
- Brunner.
- The favor you owe me?
That was fast.
[Luke] We need to use Merry Fitness
for personal reasons.
I need you to turn a blind eye.
[Dot] Asking for permission?
Forgiveness.
It's for Romi.
We never had this conversation.
[man] Don't you wuss out on me.
We're gonna pry that door open,
find those sales files
that prove that they're liars,
and then we're gonna take them
to the Chamber of Commerce.
- Hm.
- [exhales]
- You ready?
- Yeah.
- I think so.
- Okay.
[car approaching]
Get down!
[tense music playing]
What's going on?
[phone beeps]
Jesus, Mary, and Jehoshaphat.
[Shawn] I think they're doing
more than just fudgin' sales.
And we got it all.
[Dot] Last troops are getting in position.
Be ready on my signal.
[muffled grunting]
[Emma] I'm sorry, what?
I can't seem to hear you.
You gotta speak up.
Fuck you!
- [doorbell rings]
- [banging at door]
Norm, hi. Come on in.
Boy, you guys calling
sure lifted my loafers.
- It's so good to feel needed.
- Hey, Norm.
Think you can get some viable bone marrow
out of this cat?
Absitively posolutely.
The procedure's easy enough,
according to Wikipedia.
[muffled] Wikipedia?
Don't worry, just joshing.
I read an article
in The New England Journal of Medicine.
I read most of it.
Per your request for propofol,
my supplier, the Great Dane,
is completely off the grid,
so we're going to have to do this
the old-timey way.
- Buckle up, boy-o.
- [speaking unintelligibly]
[Emma] Now, you're gonna have the instinct
to go to the authorities
when all of this is over,
but if you talk to anyone,
we're gonna have to track you down,
take you again.
What'll happen to you after that
will be infinitely worse
than what's about to happen to you.
I'm sorry.
The thing is
you should've just gone to the hospital.
[muffled whimpering]
[whimpering, crying]
Hi. I'm Norm.
We're going to be working together today.
Hope you don't mind,
but I always like a little bit of music.
["Peace, Love, and Understanding

Medevac is gonna be here within minutes.
- Great. Now let's get after him.
- The chopper already left.
Within seconds, they'll be on a plane,
and within minutes,
they'll be over international waters.
- There still might be time.
- Maybe.
There's definitely gonna be
enough time for me to see Romi.
My family needs me now.
I got to go.
[whimpers]
[distant sirens blaring]
- Hey. I heard the procedure went well.
- So far, so good.
- She's a tough kid.
- Well, just like her aunt.
- So the hospital's none the wiser?
- Nope.
Barry loved wearing an EMT uniform
and driving the ambulance
Motor Pool gave him,
so, yeah, win-win.
Oh, good for him.
You read the debrief?
Boro got captured on purpose
to steal the nuke back,
and appears all the IP addresses
were spoofed by Cain.
Totally useless to us.
Theory is Boro got suspicious
when Dane called,
so he embedded a tracker in his body,
so his team could stay
in striking distance.
I wish we could've been there,
could've done something.
Then we wouldn't have gotten
what Romi needed.
And you were right,
we had to go the brutal route.
Maybe, but my dad was right too.
Torture is very real
when it's five feet in front of you.
Aldon, I
For all that you did, thank you,
sincerely.
You were having a rough day.
I figured you could use someone
to lighten your load a bit.
[light instrumental music playing]
- [Carter] Hey.
- Hey.
You guys You came over together?
No, we, uh, ran into each other
in the parking lot.
Uh, I'm gonna grab a coffee.
- Good to see you, Carter.
- [Carter] Yeah, you too.
And, uh, nice horse.
Yeah, thanks.
Hey.
I'm really sorry
about how I acted yesterday.
- The horse really does look great.
- It's unfinished.
I spilled the bottle of stain
you bought for Nana Pat's clock.
Then I called the store
you said you got it from.
They said they don't carry it.
They said nobody does
'cause it was banned
by the Environmental Protection Agency,
and that it's only available
in Central Asia.
- What are you insinuating?
- I don't even know.
You You tell me.
You think they'd admit to selling
illegal products over the phone?
I don't know,
I asked the clerk to grab the best stuff,
she pulled it out of the back.
That's it. That's the story
behind the mysterious wood stain.
Okay, if you say so.
Okay, you know what?
Carter, I just tried to do something nice.
If you're gonna be weird about it
I'm gonna go see Romi.
[Luke] Hey.
Hey.
[Carter exhales sharply]
- What's up with the pony?
- Something I was fixing up for Romi.
I think
Emma's being unfaithful.
What makes you say that?
[Carter] She's kind of distant,
and she was making excuses
for running off.
Do you think there could be someone else?
Honestly
I don't know.
I just know that Emma has gone through
a lot these last few days.
And I know that she loves you.
I love her.
And I don't wanna lose her.
So I'm all ears, Mr. Brunner.
What do I do?
I know what it's like
to lose a woman that you love.
If you feel like she's slipping away
fight for her.
- How's our little angel?
- [Tally] Better.
She'll be here for a couple of weeks,
but the doctors say
she's getting stronger by the minute.
- That's good.
- I sent Oscar and Sandy back home to rest.
I'll stay here till she wakes up.
I'm gonna stay here too.
I want Pee-Pa
to be the first face she sees.
She okay?
[slow piano music playing]
I don't know.
You're very tired.
You've been through a lot.
You need some rest.
Why don't you close your eyes
a little bit?
There you are.
[phone chimes, vibrates]
I've been wondering,
how did you manage to pay off Kyle?
I didn't.
I changed his mind.
Hm.
