Ozark (2017) s03e06 Episode Script

1
[MARTY] Okay, our partner
thinks that she's a good hire,
- and you weren't at that meeting.
- No, I was at the casino
covering your ass.
Well, I wasn't exactly on vacation.
- No, I know that.
- I was under a great deal of pressure.
Yeah, but you made a
huge unilateral decision.
[SUE] Wendy, did why do you
feel so resistant to hiring,
- um Maya?
- Maya. Maya. Maya.
This isn't about her résumé, is it?
It's personal for you.
No, no, no. No, not at all. I just
I just think that it is a huge risk
to put somebody with such radically
different viewpoints from ours
in a position of power in our
life. Like, I understand
I understand you are under
a lot of pressure, and I am
I'm so sorry you went through that,
but Maya is not the answer
to any of our problems.
Fine. Our partner thinks that she is.
Yeah, well, I disagree.
[SUE] Good. Good communication.
Can you access some feeling words?
I'm scared!
I'm fucking terrified, actually.
[SUE] Ooh, those are strong feelings.
Let me tell you why
you're scared, Wendy.
You don't believe in your husband.
- Yet, I have kept us safe this entire
- "Safe"?
For some reason, you think
that you're somehow incapable
- You think we're safe?
- I do think that we're safe.
[WENDY] Ha!
- Gonna help me out here, Sue?
- Yeah! That'd be great.
Can you explain to her that
everything that I do is for the family?
Oh, and can you explain to him that
that is complete bullshit?
I think that the two of
you are doing a terrific job
at talking this out.
Really? 'Cause I feel like
we're going in circles.
So, please weigh in.
You gotta have something to say.
I do, actually.
What does it say about a marriage
when a husband and wife both
try to bribe the therapist?
You're both paying me off.
There. I said it.
- What the fuck is wrong with you?
- Fuck's wrong with you?
- You did the same goddamn thing I did.
- Once!
- Once!
- You're a fucking beauty.
Because I was worried when you
came back with that crazy idea,
and I wanted Sue to
work a little harder.
You people don't make
it easy for anybody.
Just shut the fuck up, Sue.
No, wait. Have you been
doing this the entire time?
Are you that insecure?
No, I'm that ignored, Wendy. You
wanna know why I'm bribing this woman?
It's because you're completely
incapable of listening.
This is my only chance to convince you
that what you are doing
is putting us in danger.
First, you force us to stay here.
Second, you dig us in so deep,
we're never going to get out.
And now I discover that you've
been pouring your heart out
on the phone every night to Navarro,
interpreting his fucking omens.
What is wrong with you?
- You get how dangerous that is?
- You're listening to my calls.
Wanna know what happened to
the maid that lost the teeth?
- You're jealous.
- He killed her.
You're jealous, that's what this
is about. You can't keep up with me.
- Give me a fucking break.
- No, you can't. You can't keep up with me.
And I have one sliver of success,
and you, you lose your mind.
"Success." Chopping the balls
off a horse. Is that success?
- Come on! I didn't know.
- [MARTY] Exactly.
Your ambition makes you reckless.
You go into business with a drug lord,
what did you think was gonna happen?
- My ambition?
- Yeah.
You're so arrogant, you think
you can flip an FBI agent.
Do you know how crazy that sounds?
Is it crazier than killing someone?
Don't you dare.
Don't you I didn't kill Cade.
No, you had somebody else do it for you.
- For our family.
- And I stayed with you.
Oh, wow!
Well, does that make
you a big fucking hero?
I only did what I did
because you didn't have
the balls to do it yourself.
No, I was busy trying
to get us the fuck out.
- They would've found us.
- No, they wouldn't.
We'd be dead by now
if you'd got your way.
You'd say anything to
justify what you did.
I don't know how you live with yourself.
- You're an ungrateful prick.
- You did exactly what you wanted to do,
- and you always have, haven't you?
- That is not true.
Gary, Navarro, another
casino, a horse farm.
You put everything before the family.
I am trying.
I am trying to build
a future for our family
out of the mess that you created.
[STAMMERS] And you're too
narrow-minded and jealous to see it.
Right, yeah, and you're
just a fucking scary,
selfish, power-hungry fucking bitch.
Great. Get the fuck out. Do it.
- I don't need you.
- [DOOR OPENS]
- I don't even fucking know you anymore.
- [DOOR SHUTS]
[SIGHS]
[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]
[MARTY] Obviously, we need to discuss
doctor-patient confidentiality.
I mean, I don't have to tell you.
Breathe even a word of this
to someone, it's got some
pretty nasty implications
for your career.
And for you and Wendy, I imagine.
[MARTY] Hmm.
How much money do you want?
It's not about money, Marty.
How much?
A shitload.
Mm-hmm. Yeah, that's what I thought.
Get in the car, Wendy.
You're gonna walk home?
Home is a 43-minute walk from here.
By the time I get there, I want you out.
[SAM] Thanks.
What's with all the federal agents?
All good, Sam. Casinos are regulated.
Regulated how?
Just regulated.
What are they regulating?
[SIGHS] They're called
compliance officers.
All normal. Just don't look
like you're trying to lose.
Look like you're having fun.
- [SAM SIGHS]
- Fuckin' smile.
[GAMBLERS CHEERING]
Hey, you know what this is?
I could not care less what it is.
It's a bill from my
body shop for $7,800!
For bird shit?
For a custom paint job on my Trans Am.
A little steep, don't you think?
Considering the car is not
worth hardly half of that.
Well, that's what it's gonna cost you.
You and me are even.
Call the Audubon Society or some shit.
Better yet, the casino gives loans now.
I can get you an application.
Hey, this whole anti-authority
thing you got going on,
it's gonna get you hurt.
You're fucking touching me.
I'm making some changes
with tomorrow's drop.
I already talked to my boys.
The abandoned stadium
off of Woodrow Wilson.
- It's quiet.
- No.
The drive-in in Branch. Got it?
What the fuck is your problem?
That stadium is a good drop.
No, the last time you picked,
your crew tried to fuck with me
and jeopardized a
shit-ton of money, so
And you ain't a fucking authority!
You heard from Omar?
If you're wondering if
he's still angry with you,
yes, he's still angry.
Next time I give you
advice, listen to it.
- Mmm.
- I know. We need a new machine.
I should probably let you know, Marty
and I are taking some time apart.
Why?
We had a fight.
- What kind of a fight?
- A big one.
You're not splitting up, I hope.
No. No, I don't know.
He was being a dick,
so I tossed him out.
You know how it goes.
I do.
I also know to never underestimate
the power of somebody moving out,
however briefly.
Well, we're still business partners.
Everything will function
exactly as it has before.
I just don't have to deal
with his shit right now.
You say that, but the
first time you [SIGHS]
Jesus Christ. The
fuck is she doing here?
I want to talk to your boss, alone.
Where's Zeke?
- With my lover.
- Oh, right.
It's summer vacation.
Don't you worry about Zeke.
He is safe and sound and
none of your business.
Judge told you that.
What do you want, Darlene?
I've re-planted my crop.
We're back in business.
I came about our distribution deal.
Are you out of your mind?
You can't plant poppies
that close to the casino.
This is my land.
We'll be up and running in four months.
You killed 57 people
when you spiked our dope.
Junkies.
That is dirty water under an old bridge.
I don't care. Your deal went away
the second that you crossed the cartel.
[DARLENE] You burned our fields.
You took our land for this
monstrosity of a casino.
Whose profits you enjoy.
And now you're going back on your word?
You made a commitment. You owe us.
The last thing that we promised
you was to spare your life.
Don't make us go back on that one.
Now get the fuck out of my office.
Broken promises got consequences.
Bring 'em on.
[MARTY] You had a guy killed, Wendy.
Does that weigh on
your conscience at all?
'Cause I don't see it.
And now I'm I'm weak,
because I've got a soul.
That's rich.
You're so
so calm, so cold after Mason's death.
Like it never fucking happened.
Well, we could have gotten out.
It all would have worked,
but you didn't want that.
I saved us, you pulled us
right back into the shit.
Now I gotta save us all over again.
And I'm fucking arrogant?
Are you fucking kidding me?
I'm doing exactly what you wanted.
You wanted me to step
up, I'm stepping up,
and you cannot even back
that one goddamn play.
You think I'm gonna apologize
for protecting my family?
You're out of your mind.
You're out of your fucking mind.
Hi.
Hey. How are you doing?
Uh, not great, actually. Wendy and
I had a fight, if you must know.
Sorry, that sucks.
Yeah, I was thinking that, um,
I might go check out that place
that they put you up in. Do you like it?
Yeah, it's great.
As long as you don't
care about aesthetics.
Or comfort or hygiene.
Uh, it's got a roof though, right?
[MAYA] Hmm.
- What's this?
- It's a confession.
All you gotta do is sign.
Oh, yeah. I gotta I gotta
check with Wendy first. Okay?
[MAYA] Is this what
you're fighting over?
It is part of it, uh, you
know. She'll get there.
- I just need a little bit of time.
- You know what this looks like, right?
It looks like I'm stalling, but I'm not.
I just moved out of the house, so
Look, I went out on a
limb to get you this deal.
Just look at it. Cross out
anything you don't like.
[STAMMERS] Can I be honest with you?
I don't know yet.
Uh, I don't I don't trust you.
Okay.
You know, there's a big risk for
me, and you can dress it up as safe,
but we both know it's not that simple.
- And everything I know about the FBI
- You haven't had good agents on your case.
Well, are there any? You know, I mean
Evans is out for blood, and
Petty was a sociopath.
You know, he, um, he got one
of my people hooked on drugs.
Yeah, I know. I'm sorry. Look,
I will deny ever saying it.
Agent Petty, dick. Agent Evans, dick.
Shouldn't even be on your case.
Especially not when the two
of them were sleeping together.
Completely unprofessional.
But I'm not them.
But how do I know that? You know?
I don't know that.
You know, this is
this is a two-way street,
and I tried to prove to you that
I want to do the right thing,
that you can trust me,
and you turned me down.
And so now you gotta prove
to me that I can trust you,
and until I do, and
until Wendy's on board,
I cannot sign anything. I'm sorry.
You know, I mean, I want to work
with you, but not at any cost, so
[DARLENE] You ever notice people
don't honor their word anymore?
Well, I've done everything I can
do for you and baby Zeke, Darlene.
Not talking about you.
The cartel's breaking their
agreement to distribute my product.
Can you believe that? The nerve.
Well, I don't know what
I can do about that.
I can't arrest people
for not doing crime.
How many people you
got working under you?
Ten. Count the reserves.
How many you trust?
Your kind of business? Three, four.
That'll do, for a start.
We can always recruit.
People around here trust the police.
[SIGHS] Darlene, no.
No, come on. There's
limits to what I can do.
Who sets those limits? Not you.
[SIGHS] Darlene, I
cannot be slinging dope.
Are you kidding me?
How am I even supposed to ask 'em?
You can stand there and refuse me
after all I've done for you?
Jacob's still warm in his grave,
- and you want to cross me now?
- No.
I'm gonna need some time.
Get 'em primed.
Figure it out.
You got three months.
And whatever arrangements you
have with the Byrde family
that's over.
No more protecting them.
- You got me?
- [DOOR OPENS]
[DOOR CLOSES]
[SIGHS]
I thought I told you
to stay away from Erin.
Hmm. She called me.
Well, then don't pick up.
This is a bad idea.
Uh, A of all, he brought us
beer. B of all, it's summer,
and C of all, you're not my mom.
He's not a nice guy, Erin.
[ERIN] He's nice to me.
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
[ERIN] Mm-hmm.
- [TOMMY] Okay, iron lung.
- [ERIN LAUGHS]
[TOMMY] Wait, did you even inhale it?
[ERIN SCOFFS] Come on, Jonah.
- [TOMMY] It's good weed. Inhale it.
- [ERIN LAUGHS]
[INHALES]
- [COUGHING]
- [LAUGHING]
- [ERIN] Are you kidding?
- Would you cut it out? He's 14.
Come on. You're having
fun, right, buddy?
Does anyone wanna play a
drinking game called "Suck It"?
No!
- Actually I got a better idea.
- [ERIN LAUGHS]
[ERIN] Come on, Charlotte.
[CHARLOTTE GASPS]
[TOMMY CHUCKLES]
Wanna hold it? It's safe, I promise.
We should go.
Uh, I'm not ready to go.
Yo, if you want, I can
just ride with Tommy.
[TOMMY] Hmm. Thirty-ish
feet right here, right?
Hey, mind pointing that down, dude?
Why? Think I'm gonna shoot you?
Who'd load my fucking truck?
Oh, Jesus. Come on, Erin.
This is fucking crazy.
Let's go, Erin.
"Let's go, Erin."
God, you're such a pussy.
- Does anybody hear a pussy talking?
- Screw you.
Oh, my God. Pussy stood up to me.
Can you shoot a gun, pussy?
- Wanna try?
- [JONAH] Yeah.
Don't.
Let him.
[JONAH] Okay.
You get three shots. You hit one
bottle, I'll give you 20 bucks.
If I hit all three?
That's a nine millimeter, kid.
It kicks.
Okay.
My turn.
- God!
- [BOY] Jesus.
What the fuck do you think you're doing?
Calm down, okay? I was
- [CHARLOTTE SIGHS]
- Okay.
Put it on your head.
No! You put the fucking gun down!
- [TOMMY] Do it.
- No! Jonah!
[TOMMY] Could be fun.
Come on.
- Try it.
- No!
- [SIRENS WAILING]
- Fuck!
[MAN] Drop your firearm.
Hands in the air!
[MAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY
OVER POLICE RADIO]
We know anything more? [SIGHS]
[WENDY] Mnh-mnh.
[MARTY SIGHS]
Where are you staying?
Uh, at the Howling Creek,
where Maya's living.
[LAUGHS] Perfect.
[CHARLOTTE] I'm sorry. I
thought I had it handled.
Well, you didn't, did you?
[WENDY] Were you drinking, too?
[JONAH] No, I wouldn't.
[WENDY] Oh, good. So it was
just the pot and the guns, then.
Charlotte, I've got a question.
Why didn't you leave? You had a van.
Erin wouldn't leave.
- Okay, you can't make your own
- Wendy, a word.
Okay.
In my car. Now.
Can I ride with you, Dad?
Oh, uh, you should go
in your mom's car. Okay?
- Why?
- It's okay. We're just we're
- We're
- Having a
- A thing. Here we go.
- thing.
What kind of thing?
[WENDY] In my car. Now.
All I asked was for your
kids to show her around.
Charlotte tried to keep
Erin away from that boy,
but she couldn't exactly
explain why now, could she?
- Oh, I see. So this is my fault.
- I'm not saying that.
She has never been
in any trouble before.
The first thing Erin said to
Charlotte when she got here
was that she wanted lose her
virginity and could Charlotte help.
So she drove her to the middle of
nowhere with some low-level mobsters?
That's nice work.
If Charlotte hadn't stayed with Erin,
God only knows what would
have happened to her.
Look, we are all upset here
You know something? We may have
dipped our toe in the friendship pool,
- but I'm not sure we're gonna swim.
- Oh, fine with me.
[EVANS] What the hell
happened out there?
- [TOMMY] I got them loosened up.
- [EVANS] No, you got them arrested.
- Look, I'm working the lawyer's kid.
- Yeah?
Yeah, and I'd say I'm
doing pretty damn good.
Okay? She can't stand the Byrde kids.
She hates her mom.
- And she loves me.
- Are you sure about that?
Today she told me she's a virgin.
So, what do you think?
Just don't knock her up.
[RUTH] He's sorely fucking mistaken
if he thinks that I'm gonna pay
for that piece of shit car of his.
[SIGHS] I shouldn't have messed
with him. I didn't realize.
No, fuck that. It was funny.
[LAUGHS] He's a piece of shit anyway.
Maybe, but you gotta be
careful with guys like that.
No, he can't touch me.
I'm like a made woman over there.
If his boys try any shit
tomorrow, I swear to God
No, stop it.
Don't worry so much.
I can handle it.
[PANTING]
Are you okay?
It's not you.
- [BEN EXHALES]
- Um
I'm the only girl here. [SIGHS]
[EXHALES] I just drank too much.
That's all.
[BEN GROANS]
You are so fucking beautiful.
Yeah, okay.
I'm sorry.
You know, someday
you're gonna meet a girl who's so dope
that you won't need to
shoot a gun to impress her.
You think Dad's moving out for good?
I don't know.
Let's just try to get some sleep, okay?
Hey, Maya, good morning.
Let me give you a hand
with that. It looks heavy.
Thanks. Dryer's busted.
[MARTY CHUCKLES] I don't
know what you expect.
[MAYA] Hmm. You got a suite.
[MARTY] Yeah, well,
that's what they call it.
[MAYA CHUCKLES] You
should try the buffet.
Looks like they washed the food
a couple times to keep it fresh.
[MARTY CHUCKLES]
Did you forget something?
Nobody tells you you're gonna
be sick the whole damn pregnancy.
Yeah, you know, um
when Wendy was eight
months pregnant with Jonah,
she threw up in my shoe at a party.
[LAUGHS]
That was fun.
So, how's that going, with Wendy?
I'm here, aren't I?
- Marty.
- Yeah.
I'm due in six weeks.
It'd be good to know
you're safe before then.
- [MARTY] Have a good day.
- You, too.
[ENGINE STARTS]
[ENGINE STARTS, REVS]
[HELEN] Please tell me that you
did not have sex with that kid.
Since rumor has it that
was your summer project.
Where'd you hear that?
[SIGHS] We should talk about this.
There are things that
you should know. Things
Things I can explain.
Is there more coffee?
Put the phone down. I'm trying
to have a conversation with you.
- And I need a cup of coffee.
- [EXHALES] There's more in the pot.
[SIGHS]
Okay.
So what do you like about this kid?
[ERIN] His big dick.
Really?
- And you're not seeing him again, either.
- Why?
Oh, because he drives a truck?
You're such a fucking snob.
Because he took you to a beach
to get high and shoot guns.
I don't understand you.
Erin, this just isn't
you. Why didn't you leave?
I didn't have a car.
You had a phone.
There wasn't any service.
You're grounded. Do
not leave this house.
Where are you going?
Alligator Cove. See
if there's any service.
Fucking bitch.
[CELL PHONE VIBRATING]
Wendy Byrde.
Jim. Do you have a few minutes?
There's something I wanna run by you.
You hit a dead-end with the Fed.
No, something else.
I've been thinking about
Charles's foundation,
and I want to set up something similar.
Well, uh, something, uh
bleeding-heart and liberal, I imagine?
Peace and whales and
socialized dentistry?
Oh, no need to sound so disgusted.
We do live in a purple state,
and I know you like to have
your finger in every pie.
Yeah, yeah.
What do you need?
Names.
Anyone who turned down
Charles, I suppose.
Well, that's a short list.
- Donors and politicians?
- Yeah.
I'm looking to spend first.
- You know, raise support.
- What is this all about?
You're not running.
I just want to send some money
in the right direction, Jim.
Somebody's gotta make
this place livable.
- Certainly won't be you.
- [LAUGHS] Yeah, all right.
Well, I can pull a few names together.
And a list of people you
can't go after. Agreed?
Agreed.
Hey, thanks, Jim.
[CHUCKLES]
[WENDY] Fuck.
- [PILL BOTTLE CLATTERS]
- [BEN GROANS]
You flushed your meds.
[BEN CLEARS THROAT, INHALES]
- No.
- Do not lie to me.
[BEN GROANS]
[CHUCKLES]
I met somebody.
Oh, I'm really pleased
for you. Go get a refill.
Those drugs fuck up every
human impulse I have.
It's Ruth, isn't it?
You gonna tell me to stop seeing her?
'Cause I won't. I like her.
So do we. She's very important to us.
She's important to me, too.
Well, then do the right thing
and get back on your meds.
You listen to me
You cannot fuck this up!
You always think the worst of me.
Yeah? Then don't prove me right.
[MARTY] So, I'm wondering, uh,
how we can make all this go away.
[SIGHS] I don't know
what you're talking about.
Well, I think, obviously, the
arresting officers were not aware
of our relationship.
I'm asking if you can fill them in.
Well, I looked at the report
and it looked to me like
your kids were treated fair.
I'd have kept them in overnight.
They were high, shooting guns.
- I understand, but, um
- But what?
They're just gonna have to take
their chances like everybody else.
That's the way you wanna play this?
Yeah, it is.
Now, if you don't mind
I got a lot to do.
This summer just keeps fucking us.
[DEALER] Craps. Snake eyes.
- [WOMAN] Come on. It's time to quit.
- [SAM] I'm almost done.
- [WOMAN] You're gonna lose it all.
- [SIGHS]
[WOMAN] You got a problem, Sam.
Come on. Come on. Come on.
Eight is the point.
Jade, can you just let me
gamble in peace? Please?
[DEALER] Seven, out.
[WENDY] People think they can
handle this, but they can't.
It's not you. It's everyone.
[RUTH] I get it. You don't
want me dating your brother.
You think I'm not good enough.
- Is that what it is?
- No. No, that's not it.
Ruth, he's bipolar.
Do Do you know what that means?
It is It is
It's complicated, and it
is it is very messy.
So, you think he'd be
happy that you're here?
Honestly, I'm hoping you won't tell him.
We have a very narrow window here
where Ben can get back on his
meds and level himself out,
and without them, he's
he's dangerous.
To himself, to you, to everyone.
Dangerous how?
[SIGHS]
Okay, so, look.
For us,
it would take something pretty, um,
serious for us to explode, right?
- Mm-hmm.
- Okay, not for Ben.
When he's not on his
medication, he he loses
he loses all sense of scale,
all sense of perspective. He
You know, tiny problem,
gigantic reaction.
I mean, sometimes, he's reacting
to no problem at all, and
And then
sometimes, it's
What?
His judgment is completely impaired.
And there is no point in
trying to figure this out.
There's no logic to it.
And he's he's had
girlfriends before. [SNIFFLES]
Girls who really loved him, and
He's great.
He's one of my favorite
people on the planet.
But there is no amount
of love that can fix this.
He needs medication to function.
When he doesn't have it, he gets sick.
He gets very sick.
Every time.
So I am asking you, as a friend.
I am asking you
as my friend.
Help get him back on his meds.
Or don't see him.
[ETTA JAMES' "I'D
RATHER GO BLIND" PLAYS]
[POT CLATTERS SOFTLY, LIQUID POURING]
Something told me it was over
So, uh, you wanna give me a job?
Part-time, after school.
Tending poppies.
I've heard stories about those poppies.
- Yeah, well, maybe they're true.
- [THREE] Hmm.
[WYATT] Hey, you can live
here too, if you want.
There's a cabin right up the hill.
So, you and me, we'd bunk together?
Nope. Cabin would be yours.
What about Ruth?
- Ruth's a grown-up. She'll be fine.
- [THREE] Hmm.
You have hardly touched your stew.
- You want some mustard in it?
- Uh, yes, please.
So, where are you living?
Up here?
It's a big house.
Thank you.
Oh.
Stew's delicious, by the way.
Reveals the tears that was on my face
Yeah
[RUTH] You're gonna break
your fucking knuckles.
What happened?
Something weird's going on up
there with Wyatt and Darlene.
Weird how?
[SNIFFS]
I think they're fucking each other.
[BOBBIE GENTRY'S "FANCY" PLAYING]
Lord, forgive me for what I do
What's a four-letter
word for a Mongolian hut?
Yurt.
[DARLENE LAUGHS]
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
Is he here?
'Cause I'm not leaving
until I talk to him.
Well, you might be standing
there for a long time.
[WYATT] It's okay.
It's fine.
What are you doing here, Wyatt?
Come home.
You don't have to talk to me.
You don't even gotta see my face.
[SIGHS]
I've thought about this
conversation a hundred times.
I've rehearsed it.
Rehearsed what?
Are you fucking her?
I'm not coming back, Ruth.
I have a good home here,
a real job on the land, and uh
I think it might be good if
Three came and stayed here, too.
You don't have to be here.
Why are you doing this?
'Cause I know if it were the other way,
I know you'd do the same.
No, I wouldn't.
'Cause I'm happy now.
And I was miserable.
Are you gonna ruin this?
Are you gonna ruin this for me
like you ruined everything else?
You don't know who this lady is.
- Oh, stop it.
- No, she kills people.
She kills people,
and she buries them on that hill,
and she spikes her own heroin
And you killed my dad and lied about it.
So, where does that put you?
Are you better than her now?
[WYATT SCOFFS]
You
ruined my life.
Is that simple enough?
I love you. Don't you understand that?
Go home, Ruth.
[ENGINE STARTS]
- [HELEN] Marty.
- Yeah, I'm still here.
I just checked. It's not us.
Then who the fuck is it then?
I don't know, but it's not us.
Where are you exactly?
Uh, I'm out in front of a dollar store,
in a mini-mall, corner
of Hawk Nest and Parkway.
Is there a back door?
Um, there's an alleyway,
so there must be.
Go inside. In five minutes, Nelson
will pick you up and take you home.
[MARTY OVER PHONE] Uh, okay, but
right now, I'm not living at home.
- [HELEN] You are tonight.
- [KNOCK ON DOOR]
Is Ben here?
He's downstairs.
[RUTH PANTING] I don't
care if we can't fuck.
I just want to talk, okay?
Okay.
[SOFT MUSIC PLAYS OVER RADIO]
What's going on?
I saw Wyatt today.
Up at the Snell place.
What happened?
I ruined his fucking life.
Hey.
Hey, no, you didn't.
What? How?
[BREATH TREMBLING] I just
I just, I
I I I fucked it all up.
[SOBBING] I I might
I might as well have put
him in that psycho's bed.
Shh. Come here.
Shh.
[SNIFFLING]
[RACKS ROUND]
What are you doing here?
Helen didn't call?
- No.
- That's great. I'm being followed.
Who's following you?
I don't know, but I gotta
spend the night here.
Well I'll leave, then.
You can't. Helen's orders.
Wendy, I don't want this
any more than you do.
[JONAH] Dad?
- [MARTY] Nobody leaves.
- [CHARLOTTE] Why?
- Can we be in our rooms?
- No.
- No, I want you where I can see you.
- [CHARLOTTE SIGHS]
Now do you believe it wasn't you?
Shut up. [LAUGHS]
[PANTING, MOANS]
I could put my drone up.
No, thank you.
Nelson's got us covered.
- [INDISTINCT CLATTER]
- Jonah, it's your turn.
If we survive the night,
are we still grounded?
Yes, absolutely.
You know, I forgot to tell you.
We're starting a charitable foundation.
So, maybe you guys could
think about some of the
causes you'd like to support.
That's a great idea.
You could hide dirty
money as cash donations,
and I guess you'd pay
less money on tax, too.
Right?
It's not for that.
It's real.
There is some good we can do.
[WENDY] Hmm?
Well, I think that that's a
very good idea, Mom. [CHUCKLES]
Go.
I did it.
You think, uh, grounding works?
As a principle?
About as well as prison does.
What do we do?
Are you kidding? We ground them.
Remember in Chicago, when
they were, like, ten and seven,
and they wanted to know
what, uh, murder was?
Vaguely.
And Jonah asked if someone was driving
and they hit somebody who was walking,
was that murder?
And I said, "No, it was manslaughter."
And he kept saying it
over and over again.
"Manslaughter, manslaughter."
- Why are you remembering this now?
- [CHUCKLES]
And Charlotte realized it was
"man's-laughter."
It was funny.
You can't You can't sleep out here.
Just come to the bedroom, take the bed.
I'll throw some cushions on the floor.
It's fine.
It's a house made of windows.
I'll sleep in the loft.
[CHARLOTTE] What about the war on drugs?
- [WENDY] Funny.
- [CHARLOTTE SNICKERS]
[JONAH] Or animals?
We could save native birds.
[WENDY] Nice.
There's women's issues.
[WENDY] Mm-hmm.
What'd she say?
[SIGHS] Three SUVs
left early this morning.
They were going north,
and Helen seems to think that
they're headed to Chicago,
so we're all clear.
So so that's it?
[MARTY] Seems like it.
[CHARLOTTE SIGHS]
I was tired and fell
asleep. [CLEARS THROAT]
The drop is still on.
You know where it is?
Uh, yeah. The drive-in, in Branch.
Okay. Do you want some coffee?
[STAMMERS] No, I'm good. I should
probably get going, you know.
[WENDY] I'll take her coffee.
[CHARLOTTE] Hmm.
He's off his meds.
Hey, what's the range on your drone?
Three miles, about.
You wanna take a drive with me?
I'm grounded.
So?
You still have her there?
Yep. She's, like, two miles ahead.
[BEN] They better not fuck with her.
You know,
the two of us
we should drive
cross-country with the drone.
[LAUGHING]
Lots of crazy-ass people
in every city and town.
- Whoo!
- [LAUGHS]
Maybe next summer?
Yeah.
That'd be awesome.
[BEN] Do you see her?
Fuckers.
[TOMMY] Go to the back.
You fuckers gonna make me
walk all the way over there?
Dicks.
[CELL PHONE VIBRATING]
Oh, come on.
[VIBRATES]
- Get the fuck out of there.
- I don't have time for this.
Something's fucked up. Run, now!
