Mayor of Kingstown (2021) s04e07 Episode Script

1
This here's a new kind of boldness.
[INTENSE MUSIC]
We inbound, Mike.
[DISPATCHER] 911. What's your emergency?
- Bunny got shot.
- Is he alive?
So fucking far.
[KYLE] They put me in Gen Pop.
I'm in the fucking yard, Mike.
Got to get you back to your nest.
- They're taking me back.
- Kyle, don't go.
- I got to go.
- Put yourself in the fucking
No! [SCREAMING]
[GRUNTING, SHOUTING]
Callahan's got your back.
[DOOR BUZZES]
You have my attention.
I know you got your thumb
on the scale for Bogotá.
I know the cartel has
its sights on Moses.
- I want Frank Moses arrested.
- I can do it.
If you get Kyle back in Ad Seg
and Callahan goes in Gen Pop.
- We're gonna take down Moses.
- What about tonight?
Catch and release.
I've got to bide my time.
Gun! Fuck!
[CALLAHAN] Protect our own, Kyle.
By any means fucking necessary.
When's the last time
someone did that for you?
[CALLAHAN] Country roads ♪
Take me home ♪
To the place ♪
I belong ♪
West Virginia ♪
Mountain mama ♪
Take me home ♪

- [FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
[GRUNTS SOFTLY]
Heading back to population, brother.
I wish we had more time.
[FOREBODING MUSIC]
[HANDCUFFS CLICK]
[WAGNER] Inmate secure.
Pop the cell.
[CELL DOOR BUZZES]
[CELL DOOR SHUTS]
No goodbyes?
No fond farewells?
Well, least you could
do is offer a fucking,
"Thank you, Merle, for saving my life."
Yeah. I'm seeing
the similarities now, you and Mike
ungrateful, graceless cunts, the lot.
Oh, there you are. [CHUCKLES]
What have you learned?
Your brother can't protect you.
That's lesson one.
But I can. I did.
Lesson number two.
Lesson three.
I offer my hand once and only once.
Reject it? You reject me.
Reject me? Reject the Brotherhood.
Do that
and you're all shades of fucked.
Mike took my hand, did
things in my service,
survived because of those things.
You?
Mike didn't steer you away
from me to keep you safe.
He did it 'cause he's fucking selfish.
Regrets his past and didn't
want you to repeat it,
but who the fuck is that for?
Who's it benefit, you or him?
Fuck you, Merle.
I'm gonna do my time.
Pray I see you on the fucking outside.
Yeah.
I don't see you
breathing free air again.
Shit's not trending the McLuskys' way.
You locked up,
your brother dead, brains
on the fucking wall.
And your poor, innocent mom.
What would sweet Saint
Mariam make of you now?
Under control. Just let it ride.
You can't choose family, Kyle.
You can only choose your friends.
Take my hand, you survive.
Don't?
Well, shit.
You might as well knot up
your sheet and end it now,
'cause you're not gonna make it.
Then end it.
Now.
Do yourself that favor.
Because I am gonna get out of here.
I can walk through walls.
And you don't want to live
to mourn another brother.
You know, Merle
you talk a lot
fucking talk, talk, talk,
talk, talk
but don't say shit.
Mike played you.
You got baited out of retirement
and blown the fuck up.
You're half a ghost already.
I'm not taking your hand
'cause you don't matter.
You don't factor in fucking life,
inside or out.
My brother Mitch, he's remembered.
My mother always remembered.
And me and Mike, we'll be remembered.
But you?
You're a fuckin' footnote.
And you're gonna die
long before me or Mike.
That
That's the most I've ever heard you say.
I'll tell Mike "hello" when I see him.

- [STEVIE] Hey.
- Hey.
You okay?
- Yeah. I mean, fuck, I've had
- [PHONE VIBRATES]
some fucking close calls
in my life, but this was
Hold down the fort.
[SIREN CHIRPS]
Fucking bullshit.
- [EXHALES SHARPLY]
- Mikey. Fucking suicide mission.
That fucking Colombian
fucker wanted Moses dead,
escape plan optional.
Where's Moses now?
I fucking stashed him. He's
in Planted in interrogation.
Keep him there as long as you can.
I mean, I can keep him there
for fucking personal safety,
but it's not gonna last long.
This fucker doesn't like cages.
Well, name someone who does.
Look, don't cut him loose till I say so.
Tell him it's my call.
Yeah.
[PORTENTOUS MUSIC]
What's that look for?
It's my fucking face.
Give me a few hours.
[ENGINE STARTS]
You know, Hobbs, I really
don't like getting burned. Okay?
And you burned me and you
burned my leverage with Moses.
Do you have any idea what that cost me?
Don't come crying about the cost, Mike.
Okay? Not when you've
got what matters
Kyle is alive.
Yeah, he's alive, but I made promises
that I cannot keep.
It's greater good, Mike.
I did what was necessary.
You did what was easy.
What was expedient.
You proved yourself to me.
I proved myself to my
people. And, Mike, I have to
- prove myself to my people.
- Mm-hmm.
Kyle is safe and sound.
Far as Moses goes, you
can control that narrative.
You are nothing if not persuasive.
Next time you're playing chess, Nina,
just let me know that
we're fucking playing.
Might save us some blood.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
[ENGINE STARTS]
Look at him. [CHUCKLES]
Attaboy, Reed!
Don't encourage him.
What? He's fearless. Look at him.
Reed! Too high, bubba.
No, come on, Patty, he's fine.
Yeah, everybody's
fearless till they fall.
[PHONE VIBRATES]
What are you doing? Already?
You didn't say how the arbitration went.
Yeah, it's, uh, you know, it's pending.
Listen, it's just a matter of time.
We're outnumbered, outgunned.
Can't keep me on the bench forever.
How are you holding up?
Yeah, I'm good.
I'm good. I'm in a good place.
You sure?
'Cause the Scope's not covering.
Yeah, well, I mean, listen, all that's
gonna get better when
you and Reed come home.
[MELANCHOLY MUSIC]
[RAPID FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
Dad, did you see me?
- You saw?
- Ah! You know I did, brother.
[LAUGHS] That was
awesome. Come here, man.
[GRUNTS] My fearless boy.
Man, you're good at that.
Here, come here, give me another one.
Go on.
Hey, good morning.
Fuck off, Mike.
- Hey, fuck you, too.
- No, I can't even talk to you.
- What'd I do now?
- You've got some fucking balls
showing up here. You
come in to fucking gloat?
What I don't even know what
the fuck you're talking about, Evelyn.
Mike, I got a missing fucking witness.
You don't have to guess too hard to know
- how that went down.
- I see.
Right. Okay.
So, what's that got to do with me?
Is he dead?
There are things I do not do, okay?
There are lines I do
not cross. You know this.
- So, one of your minions?
- Or
- I wouldn't put it past Ian.
- Or, more likely,
your witness bolted, got spooked.
Don't act like it doesn't
happen every other fucking day.
Huh?
If you lost your witness,
if he's in the wind, right,
what the fuck you got,
besides no witness?
No Ian, no Robert. Huh?
I'm spinning off the
fucking planet here, Mike,
and it's just wrong, it's just wrong.
Well, I'm not saying it's not.
But you got to clear this
shit off your board, okay?
You got to forget about
this Robert shit, all right?
- I have a tonic for all this.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
- Is it vodka?
No.
It's the biggest conviction
of your career, however.
You want to keep D.A.? That's a lock.
- Governor, Senate seat.
- Mike
- cut the shit, man.
- What do you want?
No, it's no joke. I
can gift wrap a whale.
You understand?
You just got to cut Kyle loose.
You're not hearing me, Mike.
I don't trust you anymore.
It's Frank Moses.
The man has never been prosecuted.
He's never been arrested.
I can give him to you.

[PRISONER] It's a colder
climate for you here at the Bay,
huh, Officer Breen?
- What the fuck you say?
- I say, colder climate for you
- here at the Bay, Officer.
- Quiet, inmate.
I mean, no available cunny
- up in this bitch. I know
- [DOOR BUZZES]
this one's not spreading her legs
- for you.
- [BREEN] Easy detour
to the infirmary, motherfucker.
Oh, so tense.
Been a long time since
you had a release, huh?
You missing out on all that
wanton action from the women's pen?
All right, that's enough.
[PRISONER LAUGHS] Oh
Is this fucking news,
Breen, huh? You forget to tell
your lady friend here
about all your hobbies?
Better when they can't
say fucking no, ain't it?

Hey, what the fuck you snooping for?
Sorry, not snooping, I-I just

Motor pool's low on gas.
Torres asked when the next delivery is.

Tomorrow, 1300.
Thank you, ma'am.
The fuck did I say?
Thompson, didn't I not just
send you home 30 minutes ago?
What, are you off or
you milking the clock?
Y'all got to be out the damn door
or on your shift, no in between.
Show me some damn hustle, gentlemen.
Also, anyone on F block,
I want walk-throughs every hour.

Jackson, what the hell?
Sorry, sir, it just
just kind of snuck up on me.
Clean that shit up.
And get the fuck out of here before you
plague the whole prison.
Goddamn.

- Hey.
- Make sure to kill the cameras.
- Copy.
Mayor of Kingstown.
Yeah. King of Detroit.
[CHUCKLES]
King of a whole hell of a
lot more than that, Mike.
Which is why this
where I find myself
this does not fucking happen.
Yeah. Shit went sideways, didn't it?
Ooh, that's a fact
and an understatement.
"Enter through the
front, exit out the back."
- Those were your words.
- Well, that was the plan.
Was it? 'Cause they were
waiting to ambush me,
right where you told me to go.
The cartel has eyes
out. It's that simple.
I mean, better to happen in here
- than on the street.
- [CHUCKLES] Oh.
You revisionist motherfucker.
Colombians tried to take out Bunny.
And now you. The math's
not that complicated, is it?
Bunny may never see
another sunrise, Frank.
So it's up to you to push back.
And how do I go about doing that?
They burned one of your shipments.
You burn one of theirs.
[CHUCKLES]
Bait them across the line,
then we kill them all.

[DOOR OPENS]
[IAN] Hey, I'm coming in, fucker.
- Don't shoot.
- [DOOR CLOSES]
So where you at?
Oh, let me guess.
[CHUCKLES]
You're watching the
Dog fucking Whisperer?
- Yeah. It's what's on.
- You don't even
have a fucking dog,
Robbie. Jesus Christ.
Unless it moved out, too.
That's not very fucking funny, Ian.
I'm just fucking with you, Robbie. Fuck.
You got to laugh or you're gonna cry.
- I saw Patty and Reed today.
- Good. Robbie,
your suspension's gonna lift.
You're gonna go back to work.
Everything's gonna go
back to normal, right?
They upheld my fucking suspension, Ian.
Don't know for how
long. Tired of waiting.
Apparently won't let me back
in 'cause Evelyn's got a gun
to KPD's head. I can't
apply anywhere else
with this bullshit hanging over me.
She's coming after me for doing my job
that I risked my life for every day
- and that I fucking loved doing.
- Yeah.
[GRUNTS SOFTLY]
Look. It's gonna work itself out.
- It just is.
- [REFRIGERATOR DOOR OPENS]
Oh, yeah, when? Fucking how?
I mean, I might as well
be the one in fucking prison, right?
- Robbie, fuck that noise.
- [BOTTLECAP CLATTERS]
You're not a goddamn victim here.
Mike chose the side
of fucking evil, Ian.
Wasn't for him and Kyle, I
wouldn't be in this situation.
I would be on the job
or I would be here
with my wife and my son.
Instead, I got fucked, and an ex-con
who is connected to every
fucking gang in town,
everybody that drops
- No.
- he walks around
- with fucking impunity.
- What the fuck
you want me to say, huh?
Life's un-fucking-fair.
Now, you got dealt a
bad hand. We know that.
Fucking toss that shit,
shuffle and you deal again.
- You know that.
- Fuck you, man.
I can't even get in the goddamn game.
- Come on. Come on.
- Because of Mike.
He's doing this, Ian.
- He's fucking doing this.
- It's not a fucking
conspiracy. Nobody's aligned
against you, Robert. Fuck.
Mitch would never let this shit happen.
Never. He was a cop,
and he would never
fuck over another cop.
- Yeah.
- And when he got popped, what did I do?
- You made it right.
- What'd I
- You made it right.
- Yes, exactly. I made it right.
I fucking helped my brother.
I killed for Mike McLusky.
And now I'm the fucking forsaken.
This is gonna pass.
You got to fucking trust me.
It is going to pass.
Yeah, it will. If I make it pass.
Like, you and me we took action
and we made that shit pass.
And if Mike passes,
then so do all the fucking
problems in this town.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Hey. What do you got?
Shipment arrives tomorrow, 1:00.
That's good.
- And my brother?
- He's safe in Ad Seg.
Was Gen Pop a clerical
error or something more?
I'm handling it.
Was it Hobbs?
Look, no one's gonna
know it's you, okay?
Hobbs knows I gave the
nod for the grenade attack.
Bunny finds that out, I'm I'm dead.
I gave you the dope shipment.
Hobbs finds that out
Look, Hobbs doesn't know
shit, okay? Neither does Bunny.
And if any of this if any of it
lands on their radar
I'll handle it, all right? I got you.
My brother's the most
important thing here, okay?
I hear you, Mike.
I hear the words you're saying.
Yeah, and?
They just words.
Look after him, I look after you.
That's how this works.

happening.

Sometimes it's just too much.

It's all good. Mikey, hang on.
- Hey.
- All right,
red line drills! Let's go!
How goes it?
Fuck, it's the pursuit of excellence,
- Mikey.
- Yeah.
All right, what do
we got on the shooter?
Fucking Homeland
Security fucked this up.
They had him, had his
prints, let him go.
This fucker didn't come back
for the goddamn interview.
Yeah. Well, cartel B-squad, isn't it?
Are we happy Moses is alive,
- or what the fuck?
- Yes.
Yes, we're very happy he's alive,
at least for now.
If we play this right,
we hand Moses to Evelyn.
He goes in, Kyle comes out.
Kyle's got to be fucking relieved, no?
He doesn't know. He won't talk to me.
It's all better, anyway.
- Fuck.
- Don't get his hopes up.
Well, look, I'm gonna set
this motherfucker up, okay?
And you're gonna knock him down.
- Do you see it?
- Yeah.
- 'Cause I do.
- We got Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- We got this. Mikey, we got
- Okay. Good.
Listen to me. Fucking, we got
a goddamn problem with fucking Robert,
all right? We covered
our fucking asses here,
and the KPD's not gonna reinstate him.
And he says if KPD
doesn't reinstate him,
Patty's not gonna come back
Well, she didn't leave him
- 'cause of job security.
- He's losing it.
He's fucking losing it. He's
getting worse, not better.
He's an unstable fuck right now.
Okay. Look, we're almost
- in the clear here.
- He knows,
but he is not listening
to reason, Mike. He is fucking saying
crazy fucking shit.
- It's unpredictable.
- About Evelyn?
You.
- It's all about you.
- Aw, fucking
All fucking No, all his problems
start and end with Mike fucking McLusky.
- Well, get in line.
- It's ugly.
Brother, it is fucking
ugly. I don't know what
he's gonna do, Mikey, but it's not good.
He could make a move fucking tomorrow.
Every man's got their
fucking breaking point, Mike,
and he has fucking crossed it.
Do you hear what I'm saying to you?
[OMINOUS MUSIC]
We can't look after him anymore.
All right. Let's go.
[DERRICK] Hey, in the front.
I said the heaviest crates
go in the front,
toward the cab. Come on.
I remember all we had
was a stick and a prayer.
[CHUCKLES]
Benton Street days.
City still found a
way to take even that,
didn't they?
I remember when my pops got home.
He sat at the kitchen table,
the notice in his hands.
"Eminent domain."
They said it like they
was doing us a favor.
That broke my pops.
Broke our neighborhood.
Gone, like it wasn't even there.
Just words on a piece of paper.
Words didn't take Black Bottom.
People did.
- Men with plans.
- Hmm.
Men who knew we couldn't fight back
hard enough to make it cost them.
[DERRICK] Let's fucking move.
Don't got all day.
Come on.
You trust him?
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
[FRANK] We own his ass, LJ.
It's better than trust.
We're gonna make them
feel the cost, Frank.
We gonna teach those
motherfuckers a lesson.
No, we ain't teaching shit.

they got equipment.

and cut one down for the
road hockey, if you want.
Nah, I don't want your sticks.

letting the heat out.

[MIKE] Yes, hi.
- I'm not from the county.
- [CHUCKLES]
And, um,
this is No. Honey, no.
You can't start from the top, right?
That's when we get the
tangles all the way down.
You can have the last
slice if you want it.
[MIKE] Uh, it's okay.
I'm, uh
I just wanted to drop off the sticks.
Yeah.
All right, time to brush teeth.
- Let me finish this chapter.
- No.
In bed, now.
- Yeah, now.
- Uh-uh.
I'll walk you out.

you for reality, does it?

You lonely?

Well
the kids can't be bought.
Definitely not Lucas.
- Apparently.
- Not Lucinda. Maybe Molly.
What about Mama?
She's very expensive.
Yeah.
Should I have brought another stick?
I wish I could tell you
it gets easier, this job,
that you can get used to it.
There's just no guarantees, are there?
I've dealt with
workplace bullshit before.
Like, personalities and whatever,
but this?
This is another level.
Yeah.
All right.
Your turn.
What is it?
I'm working on getting Kyle out.
- I'll tell him.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
- It's through the courts.
So he doesn't have to do anything.
I'll make sure he knows that.
Call ahead next time.
I'll dial down the chaos.

Please don't do that.
But, yeah, I'll call ahead.

I want to protect that.
So whatever went down, you don't
have to be the one to go down with it.
Yeah, Mike, still don't know
what you're talking about.
Look, you want to play games, Nina,
go ahead, play some fucking games.
But you lost a shipment, okay?
And someone's got to own that.
Someone not you.
You got loyalty, but don't
let it cloud your judgement.
Every choice you make,
every line you cross,
erases behind you, let
the fallout spread beyond.
Don't pretend otherwise.
I don't pretend, Mike.
There's always repercussions,
fucking chain reactions.
And you think, what you
think maybe I don't know that?
You think I don't lose sleep every night
because of this shit?
Well
just check your loyalty at the door.
Your people don't give a flying fuck
who falls for this,
just as long as someone falls.
It can't be you.
You're not replaceable.
If it happens again
It won't.
I do not like losing, Mike.
You haven't lost yet.
- Damage control ain't winning.
- No.
But it means, after a sleepless night,
you can still see the sun.
That's something.
