What?
- NOHO HANK (ON PHONE): I want to talk.
- (LAUGHS) Why, did you run out of rockets?
NOHO HANK: I have
something to offer you
to make peace.
Not interested in making
peace with you, Hank.
- NOHO HANK: I can get you Barry!
- (LAUGHS) Oh yeah.
- Bring him over.
- NOHO HANK: No, no, no.
I need you to come to my offices.
Fuck you, Hank. Come to your offices.
You shoot my ass off. Who
do you take me for? You?
NOHO HANK: He's on his
way here right now, okay?
Hangin' up on you, Hank.
No, no, no, no, no, no!
Look, look. You see that?
That's Sally Reed, his girlfriend.
And then, there's this little guy.
Is that his son?
NOHO HANK: That's right.
He'll be here any minute.
- I'm coming over.

NOHO HANK: You came
to LA looking for him,
didn't you?
Let me guess.
You were in a bad place
and you felt
like he was the only
one who could help you?
Good luck.
I mean it.
SALLY: Hank.
What's gonna happen to us?
It's not for me to decide.

JAMES BUCKNER: We'll make this brief.
With this new
information coming to light,
we're reopening the
Janice Moss murder case.
We now have reason to believe
Gene Cousineau was involved.
We were just talking about a movie.
BUCKNER: like to hear a few
words from Janice's father.
It pains me to say this
because I was tricked by the man.

But I believe, deep in
my heart, that Gene Cousineau
manipulated Barry
Berkman to kill my daughter.
For the past eight years,
he wasn't in hiding.
He was on the run.
And his ego brought him back to LA.
It got him caught. What I want
what I've always wanted
was justice for Janice.
(HEAVY BREATHING)
JOHN: Mom, please tell
me what's going on.
(SALLY SIGHS)
SALLY: We don't move around
a lot because of my
special job.
It's because we're fugitives.
Do you know what that means?
It means
people who are hiding from the police.
Your dad
Well, he escaped prison
and I ran away with him.
JOHN: Why was he in prison?
SALLY: Because he
killed a lot of people.
- JOHN: Because he was a soldier.
- SALLY: No.
Because he was a murderer.
And I'm a murderer, too.
I killed a man.
And
I deserve whatever happens to me.
But you don't.
You (SIGHS)
You're a good kid.
You always
do the right thing.
I know I never
really told you that before
but
you're a good person.
But I'm not.
(CRYING) I'm a bad mother.
(SNIFFLES, GASPS)
(SOBS)
(SOBS)
(GASPS) I'm sorry.
(SNIFFLES) I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
(SNIFFLES) I'm sorry, John.
(SALLY SNIFFLING)
Okay, just take her.
You, stay with the boy.
SALLY: (GASPING) No. No
- JOHN: Mom! No!
- SALLY: No! No!
- No! No! No!
- SALLY: It's okay! It's okay!
- JOHN: No! Mom! No!
- It's okay!
Mom!

(HEAVY SIGH)
Where's the kid?
No, okay Barry's almost here.
Alright? We got the girlfriend.
That's the dangling carrot.
As soon as he gets here,
then you can just
Bring him out or I walk.
(SOFT GASP)
(ENGINE REVVING)

(MUSIC FADES)
(SIGHS)
You're very lucky Barry
fell into your lap like this.
Seizing on luck
is part of my profession.
FUCHES: Well, yeah.
You're a businessman,
not some lowlife killer.
You got all this through hard work,
seizing on luck, and
as a tribute to the love of your life
who was murdered
by your enemies.
(HEAVY BREATHING)
(SCOFFS)
Denial, it's tough.
I used to think I was a soldier,
ignoring the fact that I'd
never fought in a
battle in my whole life.
I was a poser. Yeah.
And I fancied myself a mentor
(LAUGHS) fostering other
men's natural abilities,
but it wasn't until I was in prison
and I got beaten to
within an inch of my life,
day after day,
that I finally dropped the bullshit
and just accepted who I am.
A man with no heart.
I am nothing like you, Fuches.
You're a weak,
manipulative,
- pathetic little man.
- (FUCHES SIGHS)
New deal.
I walk away right now.
You'll never hear from me again.
All you have to do
is admit that you killed Cristobal.
Admit that you fucked up.
Admit
that you were scared.
That you hate yourself.
That there's some days
you don't think you deserve to live.
And the only thing
that'll make you forget
is by being someone else.
(GASPS)
He was the love of my life.
I know.
It wasn't supposed to happen.
It never is.
(MOUTHING)
I just wanted to be safe.
(SNIFFLES)
We all do.

(PANTING)
Lord, I'm gonna die tonight.
Please give me the
strength to sacrifice myself
so that my son can live
a long and pious life.
And that by doing this, all
my sins will be washed away
and I will be redeemed in Your eyes,
and I will be able to sit next
to You in my rightful place
in the kingdom of Heaven
for all of eternity. Amen.

I spoke to Cousineau.
I went to his house.
You went to his house?
He might go to jail for Janice's murder.
You need to turn yourself in.
Yeah.
I don't think that's
what God wants for me.
- (SIGHS)
- I went in there tonight prepared to die, and
for some reason, he spared me.
Honey.
I've been redeemed.
The only way to be redeemed
is by taking responsibility
for what you did.
And the only way to do that is
by turning yourself in.
You're tired.
I'm tired.
It's been a long day.
In the morning, we'll
get out of LA. Regroup.
We'll figure out the
next chapter of our lives.

It's me. Listen,
I-I hope you're not still on
the internet. Are you okay?
Those news trucks went away, so, uh,
you can come out now, if-if you want.
I made, uh, I made a bit of
a mess in the kitchen there.
I, uh, I owe you a new Vitamix.
So, so, listen, I'm gonna run out.
Uh, I'm gonna get you
a brand new one, so, uh,
I'm gonna be right back. Okay?
Listen, buddy, everything's
gonna be fine, I promise you.
J-Just keep your pecker up, okay?
Remember, you're not alone, alright?
(SUITCASE RATTLING)

John? John, it's Dad!
- TOM: J-Just calm down, please.
- Where's my family?
Hey, I know they're here.
Sally Reed. Blonde girl.
She's got a little boy with her.
I swear on my life,
they've never come here.
They've been talking to
Cousineau. I know they're here.
TOM: Please believe
me, they're not here.
- (PANTING)
- (DISTANT DOG BARKING)
Listen. Uh
Maybe, uh
maybe it's a good thing that you
that you came now, Barry.
You know, Gene
is in a desperate situation.
Gene's gonna go to jail.
He's being accused of all
the things th-that you did.
You're the only one
who can save him, Barry.
(TOM PANTING)
This is an opportunity
to do the right thing.
A-And you haven't
seen a little boy here?
TOM: I haven't.
I see.
You should call the cops.
TOM: The cops?
- I'm gonna turn myself in
- (GUNSHOT)
Ah
Jeez
- Oh, wow.

(INSECTS, BIRDS CHIRPING)

Oh, Robert. Uh,

- Oh, hey!
Hey, Robert. Nice to meet you.
ROBERT: I try to get
my students to come out
and support the theater kids.
It's, you know, it's a hell of
a lot easier when it's this good.
Aw, well, that's so nice of you to say.
I mean, not all year
groups are created equal,
so they're a really great bunch. Thanks.
- Thanks for coming.
- Hey, uh, do you wanna go get a drink
or maybe a cup of coffee or something?
No.
O-Of course.
Cool, okay. Nice to meet you, Robert.
Let's go, John!
Mom
Is it cool if I stay at Eric's tonight?
Yeah, it's fine.

I got no job. Got no family.

I need a community.
I keep having all these nightmares.
All the terrible shit I saw in combat.
It's really fucked me up.
I just wanna feel human again.
And I'm sick of takin' orders.
(BRITISH ACCENT) No orders from me.
But you will get a few notes.
Gene Cousineau.

creeps in this petty
pace from day to day.
It is a tale told by an idiot.
Full of sound and fury
signifying nothing.
(PANTING)
Barry, that was wonderful.
(MUSIC SWELLS)
The passion, the intensity.
You just had your first breakthrough.
I did what you taught me, Mr. Cousineau.
All that terrible stuff I told you?
I used it, and it worked.
I'm so proud of you.
What you did up there today was amazing!
Oh, thanks. I'm still
learning. I'm Barry, by the way.
Sally Reed.
MOVIE BARRY: Yeah, I know
who you are. You're like,
one of the best students in class.
Mr. Cousineau, you'll never guess

Ryan Madison?
Who are these two guys? Mr. Cousineau?
We're busy, Barry.
(MUSIC CRESCENDOS)
(DOOR SHUTS)
I'm sorry to tell you all
this but your classmate,
Ryan Madison, has been killed.

(MURMURING)
I'll help you solve this case
if you'll let me take you out to dinner.
(MUSIC CRESCENDOS)
Mr. Cousineau, what was that noise?
Oh, my God! What happened?
It doesn't matter. I need your help.
We need to get rid of the body.
What? I thought you
loved her! How could you?
They'll put me away for
this. Is that what you want?
I knew something was
up with you, Cousineau!
You owe me.
I took you in and helped
you become human again.
I fought for you. Now, it's your turn.
You're a soldier.
Now, do your duty!
(SIGHS)
I can't.
Not like this.
You're going to regret this,
Barry Berkman.
Barry Berkman
murdered Janice Moss in cold blood.
- That son of a bitch.
- MOVIE COUSINEAU: Then he kidnapped me,
threw me in the trunk of a car

You ruffled a lot of feathers.
- You're finished, Cousineau.
- (MOVIE COUSINEAU LAUGHS)
You know, Barry, none
of this would've happened
if you'd helped me clean
up that Janice mess.
I thought soldiers
knew how to take orders.
Sometimes, being a good
soldier means not taking orders.
