Ozark (2017) s04e04 Episode Script
Ace Deuce
1
Thank you, Clare.
Hello everyone.
A few people have asked me
why the Byrde Family Foundation would
be willing to work with a company
like Shaw Medical Solutions
when many people today
feel that that company
is the cause of the problem
that we're here to fight.
And I won't argue with that.
They are culpable.
What I will tell you
is that it would have been easy
for Clare Shaw and her company
to pay their fines and move on.
Many pharmaceutical
companies have done just that.
They refuse to engage with the
communities that they've damaged.
They refuse to admit
they've even made a mistake,
let alone attempt
directly to put that right.
Clare Shaw has changed that.
She wants to make up for
the mistakes of Shaw Medical.
To put their money where their mouth is
and make a difference to the communities
that have been hardest
hit by the opioid crisis.
And that's why the
Byrde Family Foundation
is proud to work alongside Shaw Medical
to deliver three new regional
rehabilitation centers
right here in the Ozarks.
It is hard to find a
family in the Midwest
that has not been touched
by the opioid crisis.
Including my own.
My younger brother, Ben
has battled with addiction
issues his entire life.
That's why these centers
mean so much to me.
That's why I'm willing
to let Shaw Medical make
up for their mistakes.
If Ben had found
services like these as a younger man,
he would've gotten the help he needed,
and my family would know
where my brother is today.
Our hope one day is that
all families will be safe.
Thank you.
Um, you need to catch
the bus home today.
I thought you had SAT prep.
Mom needs me to cover the office.
What?
Prep's important. Don't skip
it just to make Mom happy.
I'm not. I'll make it up.
I will!
I gotta take this.
- Hello?
- Hey, I need you to come over.
We got too much fucking cash. We
need to think bigger on the refit.
I had to buy a second fucking safe.
I mean, it's a good problem to have,
but we gotta get it washed, you know?
I'll come over after school. We
can make a few night deposits.
That'll relieve some of the overflow.
Hey, uh, hold on one sec.
Hey, Janet Rae! Get your butt over here.
I got a complaint.
Cash missing from room 12.
What did you do?
I didn't take nothing, I promise.
Yeah, probably fell out
of a pocket or something.
You know, I I'll bet
they'll find it under the bed
when they get back from
the lake tonight, right?
I bet they will.
Good.
Hear what I gotta deal with?
If I thought I was gonna
have to run the place,
I would have bought a fun business
like a fucking jet
ski shop or something.
Why don't you hire a
manager? Someone you trust.
Who the fuck do you trust around here?
Then hire someone who's too stupid
to figure out what we're doing.
It's really great of you to think of me.
Mm. First name sprung to mind. I swear.
Thanks. Look, uh
I know I screwed up at
Lickety Splitz. I get that.
No, you screwed Jade.
There's a difference.
You were still a good manager.
- Yeah, did she tell you we broke up?
- No, we don't socialize.
By text. Yeah, by text,
and she pawned my mom too.
Your mom?
Yeah, there's this process where
ashes can be pressed into
Know what? I don't wanna know.
- Um
- No, no no!
- No! No! Fuck!
- No, no, no!
Uh, just come manage the Lazy-O for me
and you'll make more than
enough to make Jade sorry.
I don't care. Hire security,
do what you gotta do, but don't
let this happen again. Got it?
Okay, bye.
Do I need to worry?
About what?
About, you know, that.
What What Whatever
you're worried about.
That's the third time this month
we've had a shipment seized.
Wow. Another cash truck?
- Like they knew it was coming.
- Hmm.
Wow. Well, I mean,
maybe that's what
a very small percentage of
your annual revenue. Yeah?
Just maybe look at it as as
breakage, the price of doing business.
This is different.
It is usually DEA.
This time my guys saw FBI.
FBI? Hmm.
Maybe your fed can poke around.
Find out if there's an informant.
Uh
I'll ask.
Give me her number. I'll ask.
Oh, I I think she'll
she'll only deal with me.
Eyes on the road. Please.
Yeah, I'll ask.
Lift your arms.
All right, he's clean. Let's go.
Gotta check the contents
first. Open that one.
It's pure.
- Now that one.
- It's all there, man.
Let's just open it up.
Thank you.
We good?
Good. Okay, let's load 'em up.
Load 'em up.
And, uh, this is your,
uh your air waybill,
your customs manifest and
the dock receipt. Okay? So
All right?
News?
The shipment's on its
way to the factory.
When will we know for sure?
Once it lands in Springfield,
they'll log it into the system.
As long as nothing flags, we're fine.
I will call Business
Affairs in the morning.
You'll have your first
installment by 10:00 a.m.
That's wonderful. This is
gonna make a huge difference.
You know, even after my brother
dragged our family name through the mud,
my father was still reluctant to give me
my shot at running the company.
Don't worry.
Marty is very good at this.
He better be.
Whoa, wait, you're
- Yeah.
- Yeah!
Come on. You're comin' with me.
Sorry. Can't. Work shit.
This is your limo service.
You gotta see how it rides.
I'm guessing it rides
like a fucking car.
I'm not takin' no for an answer.
The truth is I'm fuckin'
banned. It's a long story.
Fuck them. As much cash as
we throw down at that place?
They're gonna have to let
you in with us. You! My man!
- Yes, Mr. Stone.
- You can cover, right?
Of course, Mr. Stone.
Of course he can cover.
You're gonna start calling
me Ms. Langmore now?
Well, I mean, it's Kerry Stone.
Eh, what the fuck.
- Right? I dunno.
- That's my motto.
- Don't fuck anything up.
- Yup.
Don't fuck anything up.
Hey, everything okay?
Ruth's here.
She's here with Kerry Stone
and a few other high rollers
and they say they won't
play unless we let her in.
Um, well, how how's she acting?
I don't know. Annoyed.
Impatient.
You know
like Ruth.
Ugh, for fuck's sake, Marty!
I just wanna play some
cards with my friends!
Charlotte, put her on.
- Hey, what's going on?
- Nothing is going on.
Jesus! And for the record, the fact
I'm not talking your high rollers
out of coming to your casino
is a reason to thank me,
not sic your fucking teenager on me.
I'm trusting you. Okay?
I'm just here to play cards. I promise.
Got it.
Tell Charlotte that I said it's okay
and that I'm on my way in, please.
Bye.
Move.
He's on his way.
That was Charlotte?
You should have said hello for me.
Hey, what what the fuck are you
doing? Trying to get pulled over?
Ah, why are you such a tight ass, Marty?
Ãndele.
Oh, thank you.
Cheers.
Here we go, Ruth! Come on now!
- Eleven!
- Whoo!
Yeah!
- Yes.
- Yeah.
Hey, Carla!
Looks like more fun of this side
of the tables. Is this for you?
No, that's for my friend Kerry here.
You're not gonna make
me drink alone, are you?
It's a bit early in the day for me.
Hit me, Carla.
Six. Easy six.
Yeah!
host to three new rehab centers.
A local businesswoman and
co-founder of The Byrde Foundation
- What else can I get you?
- Just a water. Thanks.
Byrde was proud to
announce their partnership
with pharmaceutical giant, Shaw Medical.
Hey, would you turn that up?
My younger brother, Ben
has battled with addiction
issues his entire life.
That's why these centers
mean so much to me.
That's why I'm willing to let Shaw
Medical make up for their mistakes.
If Ben had found
services like these as a younger man,
he would've gotten the help he needed,
and my family would know
where my brother is today.
What the fuck?
Our hope one day is that
all families will be safe.
I saw the, uh, press
conference today. Good job.
Thanks.
Um, you want to You want to
talk about the Ben of it all?
Not really, no.
'Cause it's a really, really bad idea.
No more bets!
Go again, go again. Hard six.
Yeah!
Oh my God!
- Whoo!
- Oh yeah!
- Oh my God.
- Yes!
Come on!
Oh yeah!
Oh!
I don't know! I don't know.
All right.
Nine!
Kerry?
Kerry!
Kerry! Kerry!
Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
Kerry! Kerry!
Fuck! Fuck!
Shit! Shit! Move! Move!
Open the fucking office!
Open the fucking office now!
Shit. Move!
Move. Fuck. Fuck.
You dumb fuckin' fuck.
What the hell happened?!
Kerry Stone OD'd, heroin,
but but but he's
he's gonna be fine.
And where did he get the heroin?
How the fuck should I know?
Really? You just happened
to show up at our casino
with a bunch of high rollers who
just happened to be doing heroin?
I trusted you, Ruth.
That's all you ever fucking
care about, isn't it?
How something affects
you or your business!
Somebody almost fucking died tonight!
Exactly. Because of you.
I saved him.
Do you ever get tired
of lying to yourself?
Don't talk to me about fucking lies.
So what should we say to the sheriff
when she asks us if we have
any idea how that man got drugs?
Wendy
Look, I don't want to see you
anywhere near here ever again. Okay?
Go home. Go home.
Go on!
What the hell are you
doing here at this hour?
We had a fuck-up and I wanted you
to hear about it from me first.
It wasn't her fault.
Kerry Stone OD'd at the casino.
Don't worry, I I covered our
tracks. Nobody will know it's our shit.
I knew bringing him
in on this was trouble!
I took care of it. I promise.
The rest of those guys just took
off before the cops even got there
and we didn't say shit.
Yeah. And we won't neither. Not a word.
You got that, Mrs. Snell. On my honor.
I do though,
just want to be sure that
my help is appreciated,
if you catch me?
Uh, I mean, if I'd known this
job meant lying to the police
Are you fucking kidding
me with this shit?!
What the fuck?! What the
actual fucking fuck, Darlene?!
I've been in this long enough to
know when I'm being blackmailed!
His kind doesn't stop.
Best field to bury
him in is Long Meadow.
Make sure you bring yourself some lye.
I am going back to bed.
Fuck!
Ugh!
Fuck!
What the f
You can crash at the
trailers tonight if you want.
Wam! Bam! Mon chat, splatch
Gît sur mon lit a bouffé sa
langue en buvant dans mon whisky
Quant à moi, peu dormi, vidé, brimé
J'ai dû dormir dans la gouttière
- Où j'ai eu un flash
- Hou-hou-oou-oou!
En quatre couleurs
Allez hop! Un matin une
louloute est v'nue chez-moi
Poupée de Cellophane,
cheveux chinois
Un sparadrap, une gueule de bois
A bu ma bière dans un
grand verre en caoutchouc
Hou-hou-oou-oou!
Comme un indien dans son igloo
Hi. I was wondering
if you could help me.
I'm a private investigator.
Ãa plane
pour moi, moi, moi, moi, moi
Ãa plane pour moi
Hou-hou-oou-oou!
How're you doing?
From around here?
We have a zero-tolerance policy
when it comes to illegal drug use.
The Missouri Belle has has
created over 350 local jobs, Ann.
I'd call that a positive
influence, wouldn't you?
Yes, and and that's
why our drug facilities
are such a a timely
addition to the community.
Y Yes.
Yes, that's right.
My brother Ben struggled with
addiction his entire life.
It was devastating.
The first time he OD'd, he was 17.
Our hometown didn't have the facilities
we're building now, I can assure you.
And if they did, you know, maybe
he would be here right now
and not missing.
Oh.
Well, thank you, Ann. That's
That's really That's really kind.
And thank you for letting us
tell our side of the story.
It'll It'll run tomorrow?
Oh, thank you. We
we really appreciate it.
Okay.
All right, thanks again. Bye.
Bye-bye.
What What was that?
You know, Wendy, you can't talk
about him like that. It's reckless.
What's going on with this?
Hmm? Can you tell me?
It's
good PR.
So, you haven't heard from him?
I'm afraid I didn't
even know he was missing.
Is that strange?
Going for so long without
having heard from him?
Uh, he had a job substitute
teaching last semester.
He'd come over Sundays.
We'd watch the Panthers together
after services, but, uh
he's not one for the phone.
Did you know he lost that job?
It was something about, uh
destroying student property and
assaulting a maintenance worker.
I'm only bringing that
up because I'm wondering
if he had a propensity
for that kind of thing?
Violence? I mean, anything
that might have led
to him being gone missing.
My son has had some issues.
His brain chemistry
Nothing you could do
anything about as a parent.
Just wiring.
It
No one's fault.
Then I suppose you couple
that with the drugs
- What's that?
- Your son's drug problem?
He didn't have a drug problem.
Your daughter's opening
up a drug treatment center
and she said one of the reasons
was Ben had a lifelong battle with drugs
and she wanted to help
families in the same situation.
Wendy said that?
She did.
Well
She lost the path a long time ago.
I wouldn't put much
stock in what she says.
Do you have any idea where
your son might've gone?
Maybe a place other
people don't know about?
I got a tank full of gas,
cat's with the sitter.
I'm happy to drive just about
anywhere, talk to just about anyone.
He bounces around a lot,
but he did have some people
in Wilmington for a bit
and he had one pretty
long stint in Knoxville.
That's where I'd probably start.
Sorry, it's, uh, afternoon, I get tired.
Of course.
Folks you spoke to at church
You mention this drug business?
No, sir. I did not.
Ruth Langmore?
Yeah?
Sheriff Guerrero. Hi.
Mind if I ask what you were doing
at the Missouri Belle last
night with Kerry Stone?
Gambling.
With a celebrity chef
and a guy who owns
part of a football team?
I guess so.
How do you know Mr. Stone?
I used to work at the
Missouri Belle and
I guess he liked me.
Does he hang out with a lot
of other former employees?
Couldn't say.
I heard you NARCAN'd him
back to life last night.
Guess he owes you one too.
How'd you know what he was on?
Lucky guess.
I took a look at your record, Ruth.
Petty theft, B and E,
driving without a license.
Not a thing on there you can't
leave behind if you want to.
But dealing drugs? Dealing heroin?
Thanks for the advice.
We good?
Not quite.
I'm having trouble tracking
down Mr. Stone's driver,
Brinkley Simmons.
You know him?
Mm-mm.
No fucking idea. Sorry.
I don't think he's local.
Okay.
You mind how you go, Ruth.
You bet I will.
Is everything okay?
She's just fishing.
I should get back home.
You can stay if you want.
No, it's fine. Darlene will be
worried. Could you, uh, give me a ride?
Sure.
Have you had any other
drug-related incidents in the past?
Certainly nothing nothing like this.
Just the occasional weed smoking
in the parking lot, that kind of thing,
and, uh, security usually handles that.
Anyone known to law
enforcement hang out here?
Known felons, parole violators, ex-cons?
Sorry to be playing catch-up.
Hazard of the acting sheriff gig.
No one we've been warned about.
What about Ruth Langmore?
- What about her?
- She was with the man who OD'd.
She used to work for you, right?
Yeah, she did.
Can you tell me why you let her go?
She quit, actually.
Said she was looking
for something bigger.
And what exactly did that
bigger thing turn out to be?
Uh, she bought the Lazy-O Motel
and, uh and she runs that now.
That's a lot of money
for a girl her age.
Well, it's, you know
Have you seen it?
Uh, we also, you know,
we were paying her
extremely well when she was here.
She said she was trying to
work with her cousin Wyatt.
He lives with Darlene Snell.
Maybe Darlene helped her
out with an influx of cash.
Honestly, I I I think
that, you know, it's just, uh
The, uh The Lazy-O is
You know, it's a shithole.
Excuse my language.
I'm pretty sure she probably just
qualified for a small business loan.
That's, you know
- Well, thank you.
- Mm-hmm.
This has been illuminating.
Yeah, okay, hope so. Please
enjoy the rest of your day.
Mm-hmm.
What the fuck was that?
I was just answering questions.
You're pointing her straight to Ruth.
We have no reason to protect her.
No?
Maybe you've forgotten
that our son works for Ruth.
Ruth goes down, he goes down.
Maybe it's the best thing for him.
Tell me you're fucking joking.
He's a juvenile. His record
will be sealed when he's 18.
All right. I'm not
having this conversation.
- We're losing him, Marty.
- And you want to just lock him up?
Is that what we should do?
He won't serve time.
We have connections.
Maybe one night in the sheriff's
lock-up. Then he'll be home.
I want him home, Marty.
I'm late for my own
felony. See ya later.
Hi, Santos.
Are you okay?
I'm well.
That's good.
Tell me what happened.
They had the road blocked.
We couldn't back out
and then they came.
Anyone new on the job?
No. The same as always.
How many FBI agents did you see?
I don't know. Three Maybe four.
Did you see a woman?
I don't know.
It's your job to fucking remember.
So don't play stupid. Talk.
There were so many agents.
I didn't see faces, just uniforms.
The police, border
patrol, the DEA, the FBI
He was facedown pretty fast.
Not surprised he can't identify anyone.
Can you get the body cam footage?
As part of discovery?
Shouldn't be a problem.
I want to see it the second you get it.
Hey.
Hey.
I'm sorry about last night.
I know.
Zeke's been missing you.
Hey, buddy.
Thanks for bringing him back.
I suppose you saw
Wendy Byrde on the news.
Yeah, I I've seen it.
Then you saw her tell that awful lie
about your boyfriend.
I'm sorry you had to
hear all this nonsense.
That snake of a woman
is a goddamn curse.
Do you know she stole my rehab plan?
I lost my permits.
I would burn her at the stake
if I didn't think the Devil
himself would come up and save her.
Yeah. I'll, um
I'll see you later, Darlene.
I'll see you later, sweetie.
Hey! I want you to
help me with something
for your cousin.
So, how was your stay, Mr. Stone?
Great, thanks.
That's good.
Hey, um, can I ask you
a personal question?
Sure. Why not?
Do you make paella?
I'm sorry?
See, I tried to make
paella for my ex-fiancée
and she told me that it
didn't taste authentic.
So I figured since, you know,
you're right here in front of me,
and you never know if
you're gonna get back
together with someone that you might
What are we talking about?
- A little chicken.
- Mm-hmm.
- Sausage.
- Yeah.
- Shrimp.
- Yep.
- Calamari.
- Oh yeah.
- Yeah. Maybe some chicken stock.
- Ooh, yeah.
- And tomatoes. Onions.
- Mm-hmm.
Exactly. Yeah.
- Garlic.
- Yeah.
- Mussels.
- Uh-huh.
Yeah. You're fuckin' smothering it, man.
Wow, um
Yeah, uh, thank you for that.
Yeah.
My driver quit. I'll
I'll take you to the airport.
You okay?
No. But that's not your problem.
I promise you'll be back in
a limo when you come back.
I'm not coming back.
It was just a bad night.
I'm going on 40.
And last night I almost
died in a shithole
casino in the middle
of shithole America.
I didn't climb out of a place like this
just to end up back in another one.
I'm sorry.
We're done.
Hello?
Jonah?
Yeah, this is Jonah.
Oh. Hey, Granddad.
You sound all grown up!
Yeah, I guess my voice has changed.
Is your mom home?
Yeah, she's right here.
Hey, Dad.
Were you planning on telling
me that your brother is missing?
I'm sorry. I guess I didn't
realize you'd be interested.
Do you have any idea
how it makes me look
to hear that from a complete stranger
in my own living room?
Wendy?
Wendy Marie, do you hear me?
Where the fuck are you?
I think we have a mole.
What are you talking about?
Remember that breakage
issue we discussed?
Cost of doing business?
Yeah. What about it?
Someone tipped the fucking FBI.
That is not possible.
She was at the raid. I have proof.
Marty?
Um, uh
You know, um
if if she was, you know, she
She's still She's
part of a task force.
So, you know, she can't
just refuse to do her work.
That would be too suspicious.
Why wouldn't she warn you?
I I don't know.
Maybe she didn't have time, or, you
know, the other agents were around.
You said you can trust her.
I can, and you know, we can.
No, no, no, no, no. Don't say "we."
There's no "we" right now.
Hang on a sec. Are Are you
accusing me of being the mole?
I I don't know where your
drops are. You know that.
Which is the only reason
you're alive right now.
Who else has access to her?
No one but me.
This is just This is
a fucked-up coincidence.
Okay? That's That's
That's all this is.
She got sucked up into the raid
as as part of the task force.
They're monitoring your men.
That's the only thing
that makes sense, okay?
But I'm gonna I'm gonna get
to the bottom of it, I promise.
I'm not making any more deliveries
until I know what went wrong.
And tell that Nazi to go fuck himself.
Ja Javi?
What is it? What'd he say?
He's not coming.
And go fuck yourself
Wendy, we have a problem. Um
Javi ID'd, uh, Maya
at the money seizure.
- And?
- And I I bought us a minute,
but he's not going to
make any more deliveries
until we find, uh, the mole.
I'll call Navarro.
I think you gotta tell Clare too.
Pretty sure she knows.
What the fuck are we gonna do?
I dunno. But, um, just,
can you reassure her?
And I'll I'll think of
something on the way home.
Bye.
- We'll fix this.
- You better.
Your foundation has made a lot of
financial promises in the last week.
You know I can't help you, Wendy.
Intervening will only raise
his suspicions, you know that.
Don't tell me you're afraid of him.
Wendy, is this going to be one
of those conversations, huh?
Where you try to tell me my business?
I just think it's time to think
about what your future looks like.
And what is that?
You want to be clean? Free? Clear?
You want your family safe?
What are you willing to sacrifice?
Who are you willing to sacrifice?
'Cause you'll never get that
future without giving something up.
In this future you talk about
You and I
Are we friends?
I don't know.
It's nice to hear your voice.
I'm not in the mood, Marty. Fuck off.
Well, I, um
I wanted to say, uh, sorry if
if I was too harsh last night.
Um
You okay?
What did you think of
me when you first met me?
I, uh I I thought that, um
I thought that that you were clever.
You thought I was trash.
I gave you a job, didn't I?
I made you give me that job.
Uh, yeah, because you were clever.
God's a motherfucker.
Isn't he?
Built me smart enough to
know how fucked up my life is.
But not quite smart enough
to haul my ass out of it.
Uh
I can help with that.
I, uh
I can I can get you a payday
that'll take you
wherever you want to go,
if you're interested.
Another Marty Byrde scheme.
That would make me a dumb
fucking fuck, wouldn't it?
I don't know.
Well
Go on.
What you got?
I want to buy your product.
Uncut, all of it.
You're fucking kidding me, right?
No. And I need it yesterday.
You a drug dealer now, or ?
It's not for me
Can we do a deal?
I don't know.
I'll have to think about it.
I got business partners now.
Okay.
Why the fuck did she lie about Ben?
I wish I knew.
Thank you, Clare.
Hello everyone.
A few people have asked me
why the Byrde Family Foundation would
be willing to work with a company
like Shaw Medical Solutions
when many people today
feel that that company
is the cause of the problem
that we're here to fight.
And I won't argue with that.
They are culpable.
What I will tell you
is that it would have been easy
for Clare Shaw and her company
to pay their fines and move on.
Many pharmaceutical
companies have done just that.
They refuse to engage with the
communities that they've damaged.
They refuse to admit
they've even made a mistake,
let alone attempt
directly to put that right.
Clare Shaw has changed that.
She wants to make up for
the mistakes of Shaw Medical.
To put their money where their mouth is
and make a difference to the communities
that have been hardest
hit by the opioid crisis.
And that's why the
Byrde Family Foundation
is proud to work alongside Shaw Medical
to deliver three new regional
rehabilitation centers
right here in the Ozarks.
It is hard to find a
family in the Midwest
that has not been touched
by the opioid crisis.
Including my own.
My younger brother, Ben
has battled with addiction
issues his entire life.
That's why these centers
mean so much to me.
That's why I'm willing
to let Shaw Medical make
up for their mistakes.
If Ben had found
services like these as a younger man,
he would've gotten the help he needed,
and my family would know
where my brother is today.
Our hope one day is that
all families will be safe.
Thank you.
Um, you need to catch
the bus home today.
I thought you had SAT prep.
Mom needs me to cover the office.
What?
Prep's important. Don't skip
it just to make Mom happy.
I'm not. I'll make it up.
I will!
I gotta take this.
- Hello?
- Hey, I need you to come over.
We got too much fucking cash. We
need to think bigger on the refit.
I had to buy a second fucking safe.
I mean, it's a good problem to have,
but we gotta get it washed, you know?
I'll come over after school. We
can make a few night deposits.
That'll relieve some of the overflow.
Hey, uh, hold on one sec.
Hey, Janet Rae! Get your butt over here.
I got a complaint.
Cash missing from room 12.
What did you do?
I didn't take nothing, I promise.
Yeah, probably fell out
of a pocket or something.
You know, I I'll bet
they'll find it under the bed
when they get back from
the lake tonight, right?
I bet they will.
Good.
Hear what I gotta deal with?
If I thought I was gonna
have to run the place,
I would have bought a fun business
like a fucking jet
ski shop or something.
Why don't you hire a
manager? Someone you trust.
Who the fuck do you trust around here?
Then hire someone who's too stupid
to figure out what we're doing.
It's really great of you to think of me.
Mm. First name sprung to mind. I swear.
Thanks. Look, uh
I know I screwed up at
Lickety Splitz. I get that.
No, you screwed Jade.
There's a difference.
You were still a good manager.
- Yeah, did she tell you we broke up?
- No, we don't socialize.
By text. Yeah, by text,
and she pawned my mom too.
Your mom?
Yeah, there's this process where
ashes can be pressed into
Know what? I don't wanna know.
- Um
- No, no no!
- No! No! Fuck!
- No, no, no!
Uh, just come manage the Lazy-O for me
and you'll make more than
enough to make Jade sorry.
I don't care. Hire security,
do what you gotta do, but don't
let this happen again. Got it?
Okay, bye.
Do I need to worry?
About what?
About, you know, that.
What What Whatever
you're worried about.
That's the third time this month
we've had a shipment seized.
Wow. Another cash truck?
- Like they knew it was coming.
- Hmm.
Wow. Well, I mean,
maybe that's what
a very small percentage of
your annual revenue. Yeah?
Just maybe look at it as as
breakage, the price of doing business.
This is different.
It is usually DEA.
This time my guys saw FBI.
FBI? Hmm.
Maybe your fed can poke around.
Find out if there's an informant.
Uh
I'll ask.
Give me her number. I'll ask.
Oh, I I think she'll
she'll only deal with me.
Eyes on the road. Please.
Yeah, I'll ask.
Lift your arms.
All right, he's clean. Let's go.
Gotta check the contents
first. Open that one.
It's pure.
- Now that one.
- It's all there, man.
Let's just open it up.
Thank you.
We good?
Good. Okay, let's load 'em up.
Load 'em up.
And, uh, this is your,
uh your air waybill,
your customs manifest and
the dock receipt. Okay? So
All right?
News?
The shipment's on its
way to the factory.
When will we know for sure?
Once it lands in Springfield,
they'll log it into the system.
As long as nothing flags, we're fine.
I will call Business
Affairs in the morning.
You'll have your first
installment by 10:00 a.m.
That's wonderful. This is
gonna make a huge difference.
You know, even after my brother
dragged our family name through the mud,
my father was still reluctant to give me
my shot at running the company.
Don't worry.
Marty is very good at this.
He better be.
Whoa, wait, you're
- Yeah.
- Yeah!
Come on. You're comin' with me.
Sorry. Can't. Work shit.
This is your limo service.
You gotta see how it rides.
I'm guessing it rides
like a fucking car.
I'm not takin' no for an answer.
The truth is I'm fuckin'
banned. It's a long story.
Fuck them. As much cash as
we throw down at that place?
They're gonna have to let
you in with us. You! My man!
- Yes, Mr. Stone.
- You can cover, right?
Of course, Mr. Stone.
Of course he can cover.
You're gonna start calling
me Ms. Langmore now?
Well, I mean, it's Kerry Stone.
Eh, what the fuck.
- Right? I dunno.
- That's my motto.
- Don't fuck anything up.
- Yup.
Don't fuck anything up.
Hey, everything okay?
Ruth's here.
She's here with Kerry Stone
and a few other high rollers
and they say they won't
play unless we let her in.
Um, well, how how's she acting?
I don't know. Annoyed.
Impatient.
You know
like Ruth.
Ugh, for fuck's sake, Marty!
I just wanna play some
cards with my friends!
Charlotte, put her on.
- Hey, what's going on?
- Nothing is going on.
Jesus! And for the record, the fact
I'm not talking your high rollers
out of coming to your casino
is a reason to thank me,
not sic your fucking teenager on me.
I'm trusting you. Okay?
I'm just here to play cards. I promise.
Got it.
Tell Charlotte that I said it's okay
and that I'm on my way in, please.
Bye.
Move.
He's on his way.
That was Charlotte?
You should have said hello for me.
Hey, what what the fuck are you
doing? Trying to get pulled over?
Ah, why are you such a tight ass, Marty?
Ãndele.
Oh, thank you.
Cheers.
Here we go, Ruth! Come on now!
- Eleven!
- Whoo!
Yeah!
- Yes.
- Yeah.
Hey, Carla!
Looks like more fun of this side
of the tables. Is this for you?
No, that's for my friend Kerry here.
You're not gonna make
me drink alone, are you?
It's a bit early in the day for me.
Hit me, Carla.
Six. Easy six.
Yeah!
host to three new rehab centers.
A local businesswoman and
co-founder of The Byrde Foundation
- What else can I get you?
- Just a water. Thanks.
Byrde was proud to
announce their partnership
with pharmaceutical giant, Shaw Medical.
Hey, would you turn that up?
My younger brother, Ben
has battled with addiction
issues his entire life.
That's why these centers
mean so much to me.
That's why I'm willing to let Shaw
Medical make up for their mistakes.
If Ben had found
services like these as a younger man,
he would've gotten the help he needed,
and my family would know
where my brother is today.
What the fuck?
Our hope one day is that
all families will be safe.
I saw the, uh, press
conference today. Good job.
Thanks.
Um, you want to You want to
talk about the Ben of it all?
Not really, no.
'Cause it's a really, really bad idea.
No more bets!
Go again, go again. Hard six.
Yeah!
Oh my God!
- Whoo!
- Oh yeah!
- Oh my God.
- Yes!
Come on!
Oh yeah!
Oh!
I don't know! I don't know.
All right.
Nine!
Kerry?
Kerry!
Kerry! Kerry!
Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
Kerry! Kerry!
Fuck! Fuck!
Shit! Shit! Move! Move!
Open the fucking office!
Open the fucking office now!
Shit. Move!
Move. Fuck. Fuck.
You dumb fuckin' fuck.
What the hell happened?!
Kerry Stone OD'd, heroin,
but but but he's
he's gonna be fine.
And where did he get the heroin?
How the fuck should I know?
Really? You just happened
to show up at our casino
with a bunch of high rollers who
just happened to be doing heroin?
I trusted you, Ruth.
That's all you ever fucking
care about, isn't it?
How something affects
you or your business!
Somebody almost fucking died tonight!
Exactly. Because of you.
I saved him.
Do you ever get tired
of lying to yourself?
Don't talk to me about fucking lies.
So what should we say to the sheriff
when she asks us if we have
any idea how that man got drugs?
Wendy
Look, I don't want to see you
anywhere near here ever again. Okay?
Go home. Go home.
Go on!
What the hell are you
doing here at this hour?
We had a fuck-up and I wanted you
to hear about it from me first.
It wasn't her fault.
Kerry Stone OD'd at the casino.
Don't worry, I I covered our
tracks. Nobody will know it's our shit.
I knew bringing him
in on this was trouble!
I took care of it. I promise.
The rest of those guys just took
off before the cops even got there
and we didn't say shit.
Yeah. And we won't neither. Not a word.
You got that, Mrs. Snell. On my honor.
I do though,
just want to be sure that
my help is appreciated,
if you catch me?
Uh, I mean, if I'd known this
job meant lying to the police
Are you fucking kidding
me with this shit?!
What the fuck?! What the
actual fucking fuck, Darlene?!
I've been in this long enough to
know when I'm being blackmailed!
His kind doesn't stop.
Best field to bury
him in is Long Meadow.
Make sure you bring yourself some lye.
I am going back to bed.
Fuck!
Ugh!
Fuck!
What the f
You can crash at the
trailers tonight if you want.
Wam! Bam! Mon chat, splatch
Gît sur mon lit a bouffé sa
langue en buvant dans mon whisky
Quant à moi, peu dormi, vidé, brimé
J'ai dû dormir dans la gouttière
- Où j'ai eu un flash
- Hou-hou-oou-oou!
En quatre couleurs
Allez hop! Un matin une
louloute est v'nue chez-moi
Poupée de Cellophane,
cheveux chinois
Un sparadrap, une gueule de bois
A bu ma bière dans un
grand verre en caoutchouc
Hou-hou-oou-oou!
Comme un indien dans son igloo
Hi. I was wondering
if you could help me.
I'm a private investigator.
Ãa plane
pour moi, moi, moi, moi, moi
Ãa plane pour moi
Hou-hou-oou-oou!
How're you doing?
From around here?
We have a zero-tolerance policy
when it comes to illegal drug use.
The Missouri Belle has has
created over 350 local jobs, Ann.
I'd call that a positive
influence, wouldn't you?
Yes, and and that's
why our drug facilities
are such a a timely
addition to the community.
Y Yes.
Yes, that's right.
My brother Ben struggled with
addiction his entire life.
It was devastating.
The first time he OD'd, he was 17.
Our hometown didn't have the facilities
we're building now, I can assure you.
And if they did, you know, maybe
he would be here right now
and not missing.
Oh.
Well, thank you, Ann. That's
That's really That's really kind.
And thank you for letting us
tell our side of the story.
It'll It'll run tomorrow?
Oh, thank you. We
we really appreciate it.
Okay.
All right, thanks again. Bye.
Bye-bye.
What What was that?
You know, Wendy, you can't talk
about him like that. It's reckless.
What's going on with this?
Hmm? Can you tell me?
It's
good PR.
So, you haven't heard from him?
I'm afraid I didn't
even know he was missing.
Is that strange?
Going for so long without
having heard from him?
Uh, he had a job substitute
teaching last semester.
He'd come over Sundays.
We'd watch the Panthers together
after services, but, uh
he's not one for the phone.
Did you know he lost that job?
It was something about, uh
destroying student property and
assaulting a maintenance worker.
I'm only bringing that
up because I'm wondering
if he had a propensity
for that kind of thing?
Violence? I mean, anything
that might have led
to him being gone missing.
My son has had some issues.
His brain chemistry
Nothing you could do
anything about as a parent.
Just wiring.
It
No one's fault.
Then I suppose you couple
that with the drugs
- What's that?
- Your son's drug problem?
He didn't have a drug problem.
Your daughter's opening
up a drug treatment center
and she said one of the reasons
was Ben had a lifelong battle with drugs
and she wanted to help
families in the same situation.
Wendy said that?
She did.
Well
She lost the path a long time ago.
I wouldn't put much
stock in what she says.
Do you have any idea where
your son might've gone?
Maybe a place other
people don't know about?
I got a tank full of gas,
cat's with the sitter.
I'm happy to drive just about
anywhere, talk to just about anyone.
He bounces around a lot,
but he did have some people
in Wilmington for a bit
and he had one pretty
long stint in Knoxville.
That's where I'd probably start.
Sorry, it's, uh, afternoon, I get tired.
Of course.
Folks you spoke to at church
You mention this drug business?
No, sir. I did not.
Ruth Langmore?
Yeah?
Sheriff Guerrero. Hi.
Mind if I ask what you were doing
at the Missouri Belle last
night with Kerry Stone?
Gambling.
With a celebrity chef
and a guy who owns
part of a football team?
I guess so.
How do you know Mr. Stone?
I used to work at the
Missouri Belle and
I guess he liked me.
Does he hang out with a lot
of other former employees?
Couldn't say.
I heard you NARCAN'd him
back to life last night.
Guess he owes you one too.
How'd you know what he was on?
Lucky guess.
I took a look at your record, Ruth.
Petty theft, B and E,
driving without a license.
Not a thing on there you can't
leave behind if you want to.
But dealing drugs? Dealing heroin?
Thanks for the advice.
We good?
Not quite.
I'm having trouble tracking
down Mr. Stone's driver,
Brinkley Simmons.
You know him?
Mm-mm.
No fucking idea. Sorry.
I don't think he's local.
Okay.
You mind how you go, Ruth.
You bet I will.
Is everything okay?
She's just fishing.
I should get back home.
You can stay if you want.
No, it's fine. Darlene will be
worried. Could you, uh, give me a ride?
Sure.
Have you had any other
drug-related incidents in the past?
Certainly nothing nothing like this.
Just the occasional weed smoking
in the parking lot, that kind of thing,
and, uh, security usually handles that.
Anyone known to law
enforcement hang out here?
Known felons, parole violators, ex-cons?
Sorry to be playing catch-up.
Hazard of the acting sheriff gig.
No one we've been warned about.
What about Ruth Langmore?
- What about her?
- She was with the man who OD'd.
She used to work for you, right?
Yeah, she did.
Can you tell me why you let her go?
She quit, actually.
Said she was looking
for something bigger.
And what exactly did that
bigger thing turn out to be?
Uh, she bought the Lazy-O Motel
and, uh and she runs that now.
That's a lot of money
for a girl her age.
Well, it's, you know
Have you seen it?
Uh, we also, you know,
we were paying her
extremely well when she was here.
She said she was trying to
work with her cousin Wyatt.
He lives with Darlene Snell.
Maybe Darlene helped her
out with an influx of cash.
Honestly, I I I think
that, you know, it's just, uh
The, uh The Lazy-O is
You know, it's a shithole.
Excuse my language.
I'm pretty sure she probably just
qualified for a small business loan.
That's, you know
- Well, thank you.
- Mm-hmm.
This has been illuminating.
Yeah, okay, hope so. Please
enjoy the rest of your day.
Mm-hmm.
What the fuck was that?
I was just answering questions.
You're pointing her straight to Ruth.
We have no reason to protect her.
No?
Maybe you've forgotten
that our son works for Ruth.
Ruth goes down, he goes down.
Maybe it's the best thing for him.
Tell me you're fucking joking.
He's a juvenile. His record
will be sealed when he's 18.
All right. I'm not
having this conversation.
- We're losing him, Marty.
- And you want to just lock him up?
Is that what we should do?
He won't serve time.
We have connections.
Maybe one night in the sheriff's
lock-up. Then he'll be home.
I want him home, Marty.
I'm late for my own
felony. See ya later.
Hi, Santos.
Are you okay?
I'm well.
That's good.
Tell me what happened.
They had the road blocked.
We couldn't back out
and then they came.
Anyone new on the job?
No. The same as always.
How many FBI agents did you see?
I don't know. Three Maybe four.
Did you see a woman?
I don't know.
It's your job to fucking remember.
So don't play stupid. Talk.
There were so many agents.
I didn't see faces, just uniforms.
The police, border
patrol, the DEA, the FBI
He was facedown pretty fast.
Not surprised he can't identify anyone.
Can you get the body cam footage?
As part of discovery?
Shouldn't be a problem.
I want to see it the second you get it.
Hey.
Hey.
I'm sorry about last night.
I know.
Zeke's been missing you.
Hey, buddy.
Thanks for bringing him back.
I suppose you saw
Wendy Byrde on the news.
Yeah, I I've seen it.
Then you saw her tell that awful lie
about your boyfriend.
I'm sorry you had to
hear all this nonsense.
That snake of a woman
is a goddamn curse.
Do you know she stole my rehab plan?
I lost my permits.
I would burn her at the stake
if I didn't think the Devil
himself would come up and save her.
Yeah. I'll, um
I'll see you later, Darlene.
I'll see you later, sweetie.
Hey! I want you to
help me with something
for your cousin.
So, how was your stay, Mr. Stone?
Great, thanks.
That's good.
Hey, um, can I ask you
a personal question?
Sure. Why not?
Do you make paella?
I'm sorry?
See, I tried to make
paella for my ex-fiancée
and she told me that it
didn't taste authentic.
So I figured since, you know,
you're right here in front of me,
and you never know if
you're gonna get back
together with someone that you might
What are we talking about?
- A little chicken.
- Mm-hmm.
- Sausage.
- Yeah.
- Shrimp.
- Yep.
- Calamari.
- Oh yeah.
- Yeah. Maybe some chicken stock.
- Ooh, yeah.
- And tomatoes. Onions.
- Mm-hmm.
Exactly. Yeah.
- Garlic.
- Yeah.
- Mussels.
- Uh-huh.
Yeah. You're fuckin' smothering it, man.
Wow, um
Yeah, uh, thank you for that.
Yeah.
My driver quit. I'll
I'll take you to the airport.
You okay?
No. But that's not your problem.
I promise you'll be back in
a limo when you come back.
I'm not coming back.
It was just a bad night.
I'm going on 40.
And last night I almost
died in a shithole
casino in the middle
of shithole America.
I didn't climb out of a place like this
just to end up back in another one.
I'm sorry.
We're done.
Hello?
Jonah?
Yeah, this is Jonah.
Oh. Hey, Granddad.
You sound all grown up!
Yeah, I guess my voice has changed.
Is your mom home?
Yeah, she's right here.
Hey, Dad.
Were you planning on telling
me that your brother is missing?
I'm sorry. I guess I didn't
realize you'd be interested.
Do you have any idea
how it makes me look
to hear that from a complete stranger
in my own living room?
Wendy?
Wendy Marie, do you hear me?
Where the fuck are you?
I think we have a mole.
What are you talking about?
Remember that breakage
issue we discussed?
Cost of doing business?
Yeah. What about it?
Someone tipped the fucking FBI.
That is not possible.
She was at the raid. I have proof.
Marty?
Um, uh
You know, um
if if she was, you know, she
She's still She's
part of a task force.
So, you know, she can't
just refuse to do her work.
That would be too suspicious.
Why wouldn't she warn you?
I I don't know.
Maybe she didn't have time, or, you
know, the other agents were around.
You said you can trust her.
I can, and you know, we can.
No, no, no, no, no. Don't say "we."
There's no "we" right now.
Hang on a sec. Are Are you
accusing me of being the mole?
I I don't know where your
drops are. You know that.
Which is the only reason
you're alive right now.
Who else has access to her?
No one but me.
This is just This is
a fucked-up coincidence.
Okay? That's That's
That's all this is.
She got sucked up into the raid
as as part of the task force.
They're monitoring your men.
That's the only thing
that makes sense, okay?
But I'm gonna I'm gonna get
to the bottom of it, I promise.
I'm not making any more deliveries
until I know what went wrong.
And tell that Nazi to go fuck himself.
Ja Javi?
What is it? What'd he say?
He's not coming.
And go fuck yourself
Wendy, we have a problem. Um
Javi ID'd, uh, Maya
at the money seizure.
- And?
- And I I bought us a minute,
but he's not going to
make any more deliveries
until we find, uh, the mole.
I'll call Navarro.
I think you gotta tell Clare too.
Pretty sure she knows.
What the fuck are we gonna do?
I dunno. But, um, just,
can you reassure her?
And I'll I'll think of
something on the way home.
Bye.
- We'll fix this.
- You better.
Your foundation has made a lot of
financial promises in the last week.
You know I can't help you, Wendy.
Intervening will only raise
his suspicions, you know that.
Don't tell me you're afraid of him.
Wendy, is this going to be one
of those conversations, huh?
Where you try to tell me my business?
I just think it's time to think
about what your future looks like.
And what is that?
You want to be clean? Free? Clear?
You want your family safe?
What are you willing to sacrifice?
Who are you willing to sacrifice?
'Cause you'll never get that
future without giving something up.
In this future you talk about
You and I
Are we friends?
I don't know.
It's nice to hear your voice.
I'm not in the mood, Marty. Fuck off.
Well, I, um
I wanted to say, uh, sorry if
if I was too harsh last night.
Um
You okay?
What did you think of
me when you first met me?
I, uh I I thought that, um
I thought that that you were clever.
You thought I was trash.
I gave you a job, didn't I?
I made you give me that job.
Uh, yeah, because you were clever.
God's a motherfucker.
Isn't he?
Built me smart enough to
know how fucked up my life is.
But not quite smart enough
to haul my ass out of it.
Uh
I can help with that.
I, uh
I can I can get you a payday
that'll take you
wherever you want to go,
if you're interested.
Another Marty Byrde scheme.
That would make me a dumb
fucking fuck, wouldn't it?
I don't know.
Well
Go on.
What you got?
I want to buy your product.
Uncut, all of it.
You're fucking kidding me, right?
No. And I need it yesterday.
You a drug dealer now, or ?
It's not for me
Can we do a deal?
I don't know.
I'll have to think about it.
I got business partners now.
Okay.
Why the fuck did she lie about Ben?
I wish I knew.
