Big Love (2006) s05e08 Episode Script

There's a church-inspired boycott.
Thousands of devout Mormons are shunning our stores like a leper colony.
We need to cash out while we still can.
They're a good family, bishop.
They don't deserve to be singled out by the entire city.
Perhaps you'd feel better if you unburdened yourself.
I'm worried about you and this Goji business.
You have more faith, hope and charity in your little finger than I've got in my entire body.
But you open yourself up to people who might take advantage of that.
Your teacher certainly has a crush.
What do you mean? I see the way he glances at me.
It comforts me, Bill Henrickson, that you will burn in hell.
Alby's already led you there.
What would your flock do if they found out their Shepherd had lain with another Shepherd? I guess the real question is, what kind of man are you? By the power vested in me I now pronounce you husband and wife.
Could you step outside? We believe you possess information pertaining to a statutory rape.
It's cold.
Can you watch them for me? Barb and Bill are still at the attorney's.
What are you making, Margene? You had breakfast.
Don't act like I didn't feed you.
Go sit.
Where'd your mom go? Down to the compound.
She got an urgent S.
O.
S.
before dawn.
Oh, hey, wait wait.
How's Gary? - He's good.
- Yeah? - Thanks for asking.
- I don't see him much anymore.
He's so busy at school and at work.
How's tutoring? It's going great.
I'm filling out an application for a math intensive in Boulder over spring break.
How's Mr.
Ivey? He's good too, I guess.
Is there something you're trying to ask me? Should there be? No.
Look, there is a lot going on right now.
I want to make sure there's nothing else I need to worry about on the horizon.
I understand.
There isn't.
Is she in trouble? Wash your hands if you're eating again.
They asked how Margene came into the house, whether I interviewed her, if we issued a 1099, and a million questions about her age.
And I-I said I wasn't sure.
Without a credible basis for suspicion, they can't just haul anyone in for questioning.
We can get the whole thing thrown out.
No, they did nothing wrong.
This isn't North Korea.
They're using Barb as a warning shot to me that they're coming after me if I don't shut up, stop saying we're Mormon and go back into our little box.
It's not just about you.
Well, who the heck else is it about? Barb.
You have become a person of interest as well.
For what? Procuring.
Like Brian David Mitchell kidnapping Elizabeth smart-- they charged his wife Wanda Barzee with accomplice to rape.
Pretty much the same thing here.
Barb, slow down.
Procuring.
It's ridiculous.
It's-- it's preposterous.
Yeah, well, Lee's face didn't look like he thought it was preposterous.
I didn't hear Lee say he thought it was preposterous.
They're cowards.
You know that.
When they can't win by bullying and intimidation, they fold their tents and go home.
I am a woman of deep and abiding faith who has tried to lead a righteous life.
And now I might get indicted for procuring and accomplice to rape.
You'd better hide the drano, Bill, 'cause I might drink it.
Listen to me.
They are not gonna prosecute.
I am a sitting senator.
It draws too much attention to the very thing that they want to go away.
Just hold tight.
Get in.
What's wrong? I can't do it.
We've all been warned not to talk to you.
Because I'm here bringing the truth? If he finds me, he'll lock me up.
Your husband is not gonna find you at the shelter.
How do you know? Because Safety Net has helped other women escape.
I have told you all this.
No.
I changed my mind.
I'm sorry.
Look, I was just like you-- scared, trapped, no better than a slave.
Look at me now.
I'm legally married.
I have nice things.
I live in my own house.
Don't you want a life like mine? Then get in the car.
Hi, Carl.
Everything okay? Uh, no.
Not particularly.
It's about Margene.
I need you to talk to her.
What about? Pam is knee-deep in that Goji racket of Margie's, and I'm trying to get her to quit.
And Marge keeps telling her to stay in.
Pam hasn't made a dime, and Marge keeps feeding her happy talk about hanging in there.
It's not right.
And you need to do something about it.
I need to do something? I'd talk to your husband, but he's too flippin' important these days.
Please help.
I'll see what I can do.
Can I talk to you for a sec? It's about our future, Don.
Something's come up, and it's not good.
I think I need to make some changes in my life too, Bill.
Okay, what kind of changes? Peg took me to see a doctor yesterday.
Are you all right? What is it? It was a psychiatrist.
I started spending a lot of time in my backyard alone in my bunker.
I sleep in it.
And I take these-- ativan-- to get out of the house in the morning, to calm me down.
Don, buddy, why didn't you tell me? What can I do? I can't cope very well anymore.
Well, let's get you some time off, do whatever we have to do to get you back on your feet again.
Don? I got an offer to sell my share of the business.
I don't know how to tell you this.
The buyer is Albert Grant.
Sell to Alby? Don, he tried to kill you.
I don't know what to do.
The shares are worth 35.
He offered me 80.
I don't care what he offered you.
You can't sell to him.
He called me three times.
His banker came to see Peg.
The stores can't make it, Bill.
How could you even think of doing such a thing? It's not a betrayal if you sell out too.
You're being tempted by the adversary, by Satan.
Have faith in us, in me.
I can't take it anymore.
I have to sell.
That's James and Jared, my sister's eldest.
And that's Krissie on her last birthday.
She's really pretty.
How many nieces and nephews do you have? Um, 12 so far.
Oh, that's almost as big as my family.
Yeah.
Hey, you two.
Sorry to interrupt.
Hello, Margene.
It's nice to see you again.
I told your mom I'd pick you up, and I got here a little early.
Mind if I watch? Not much to see.
That's okay.
Pretend I'm not here.
All right, move on to the next problem.
Come on, let's go inside.
I can't, Ben.
I just-- I can't.
Listen to me.
It's okay.
No one knows it was you.
But I know, and I hate myself.
I feel so guilty.
It's like "The Tell-Tale Heart".
Heather, you have to come in, because I can't go to your house, not after what your parents did-- calling the cops.
I only got about two hours of sleep last night.
I'm so sorry.
No, it's not just about you.
My gram's at a new home.
We're taking turns watching her until she gets used to it.
Last night was my turn.
Come on.
I just can't.
If this is weighing on you so much, then we have to do something.
I want to see Alby.
You're not on the calendar.
Madison? Open the door, Adaleen.
Think you can run me out of business if you buy my partner's shares? Your wife kidnapped another woman this morning.
Nicki and I have a vision for this place.
We're not backing down with Safety Net.
You will when the police come calling.
We're pressing charges this time, for kidnapping and false imprisonment.
I'm through with you undermining my authority.
Get out of here.
You listen to me.
Stay away from Home Plus.
Stay away from my partner.
He's not well, thanks to you.
Little by little, Bill.
Madison.
Your nephew says you had a relationship.
Those baseless charges were litigated years ago.
You have no proof of anything.
I do, Albert.
I have a copy of the check Uncle Roman paid my parents to get me to keep quiet and lie.
If you don't back off my stores, if you contact Don Embry again, your days as a so-called prophet are over.
I have no vision? I keep peace between the Greenes and the Walkers and the insane warring factions.
I am purifying the compounds.
I do have vision, yet I get spat on.
Well, it is time for that insolent suburban shopkeeper to go.
Go where? To his grave.
And I want you to dig it.
You'll contact him and tell him that you have information that is harmful to me, and that you're willing to sell it to him.
What kind of information? - Doesn't matter.
- But what if he asks? Listen to me.
It doesn't matter.
You'll ask him to meet you.
When? Tomorrow.
How much are you gonna pay me? Why is it always about the money with you? It's-- it's not.
But I-- I have to support myself.
I have a wife and child.
You don't understand.
I'll get you others, ones more supple and yielding, younger than Rhonda, more voluptuous, to receive your seed and grow your pride.
And $2000.
I need $10,000.
And I want $5000 of it upfront.
I'm not kidding around this time.
$10,000 cash, $5000 upfront.
Oh, where are you going? Oh, I'm-- gotta-- I'm meeting with my downline.
- How are things downtown? - Not good.
I don't want to discuss it.
Yeah, Bill called.
He said that he wants to have a sit-down.
Yeah, I really just can't talk about it.
Carl came to see me today.
He's desperately worried about Pam.
- Oh, she's fine.
- No, Margene.
We're getting stuck in the middle of a marriage that is unraveling, which is not a good place to be.
Oh, you're right, Barb.
Are we done? No, we're not.
Bill's incredibly concerned about your involvement with Goji, and so am I.
He told me and I checked it out.
But I gotta go.
Wait, who is that? Her name's Ileana.
Nicki rescued her.
All right, Marge, Marge, stop.
I need your attention.
You won't accept any criticism of Goji.
You shut down if we ask you questions.
You refuse the facts.
Listen to me.
Goji is fine.
So we're gonna drop this right now, okay? Now forgive me, there's something else I've got to do.
The tuition for the program is $2000.
Let's take it one step at a time.
I can't earn it because I had to quit my job so you could tutor me.
Well, your birthday's coming up.
Greg, it's too much.
You deserve to go.
Hmm? - The pizza's here.
- All right.
Where is she? She's not here.
Cara Lynn! She's not here.
Yes, she is.
I followed her to the courtyard.
And then I lost her.
And then I looked at the names on the mailboxes and saw yours.
Now I'm not a math wiz, but I can put two and two together.
And those are her shoes.
Cara Lynn! I know you're here.
Come out now.
You're her teacher.
This is so wrong! - There's nothing going on.
It's not what you think.
- Oh, please.
Oh, please.
Honest, really, we are just having dinner.
- You should be ashamed of yourself.
- I can explain.
No, Greg, don't.
You call him Greg? Get in the car.
Please, you've got to understand.
I love her.
Cara Lynn said that you'd be sympathetic, that if anyone could understand this-- put your shoes on, get your coat and get in the damn car! Don't you ever compare what you did with me and my marriage.
You are hiding out with an innocent 15-year-old girl! Are you crazy? What the hell were you thinking? Margene, if you could only-- do you have the vaguest idea of everything this family is facing right now? Just where have you two good-time gals been? At the mall.
Where are your shopping bags? We ate at the food court.
We didn't buy anything.
Margene, Cara Lynn has her studies and a big math test coming up.
You're right.
You need to study.
It would help if you thought about other people once in a while.
And you need to get to bed soon.
Thank you for not telling.
Don't think for one minute you're home free.
I just need to think of the best way to handle this.
I know what you think, but he's not a predator.
He's devout.
It was his first time too.
- With a student? - With anyone.
Oh.
How long has this been going on? - A few weeks.
- It's over.
Do you understand? Cara Lynn.
Mom, Aaron threw up on the bed.
Okay, babe.
Mom, Heather has something she'd like to say to you.
I'm so so sorry, Mrs.
Henrickson.
For what, Heather? It was all meant to be private.
Um, I was seeking counsel from my bishop because I was confused, and so I asked his advice about-- about what? I love your family.
And then at Christmas when Margene said that she was 16 when she and Mr.
Henrickson began to-- began-- my bishop called the stake president, who called my dad.
I think we'd better go.
Name-- Richard Kimble, doctor of medicine; Destination-- death row, state prison.
But laws are made by men, carried out by men.
And men are imperfect.
Richard Kimble is innocent, proved guilty.
What Richard Kimble could not prove was that moments before discovering his wife's body How are you? I'm in a bit of trouble, mom.
What kind of trouble? Marge was 16 when I married her.
Morning.
Who's he talking to? Lee Hatcher.
I see.
Yeah, I got it.
Okay.
All right, so where do we stand? They want to speak to Marge next.
They've issued a summons for you.
- A summons? - Tomorrow at 3:00.
A summons means this is official.
They're coming after us-- you, me, gloves off.
I'm not guilty.
Neither Bill nor I have anything to be ashamed of.
This wasn't rape.
All right, please do not use that word again.
Just call it whatever you want.
Do not use that word.
Whether it's real or whatever it is, we do not point fingers.
Why not? Now that we finally know how this got out there in the first place-- someone blabbering away at the Christmas table.
I won't go.
I just won't.
Let them come arrest me.
Let them make me go, drag me by my hair, I don't care.
I don't care.
They have the supposed hammer of child protective services.
You aren't seriously suggesting they'd take our children? At this point, Nicki, I don't know what could happen.
What do they even need her for anyway? Either they know she was jailbait or not.
And if they do, our goose is already cooked.
Well, you watch tv.
It's to get her to turn against us, to name names, to finger me, to rat us out to the coppers.
I feel awful.
I wish I could die.
I have no idea how to make this better.
I just-- this family has found unity in marriage and divorce and adoption, and if we have to find it in the face of an indictment, then so help me, we'll find it there too.
You've got to be kidding.
Okay, I need you to help me to keep this from spinning out of control.
How could you do something so totally outrageous? My mom divorced my dad because of you.
What could you possibly be thinking? I am so sorry.
And I am so scared.
You have to tell Margene to just let this go.
She can't tell Nicki.
My mom would totally freak out.
Who wouldn't? I'll talk to Marge, but only because I don't want my parents to know.
I'll handle this, but you have to stop.
- Cara Lynn, I mean it.
- Okay.
Look at me.
This is just so incredibly effed up.
Why'd you do it? He loves me.
I'd be happy to give you a ride to the bus station.
I checked the schedule and there's one that leaves for home in an hour.
There you are.
Hello.
Ileana says you're holding her against her will.
Ileana, how could you say such a thing? I'm saving her.
We have way too much going on, don't you think, to indulge in this? She'd like a ride to the bus station.
What? Why? I want to go home.
But the room at the shelter is ready now.
And social services have paid the first month's rent on a great apartment starting next week.
I think I miss my husband.
You mustn't call him for at least a week.
All right, Nicki, you can't save someone who doesn't want to be saved.
This is crazy.
And this isn't the time.
There is no right time or wrong time to save someone in need, Barb.
And it's important to me that our children know we feel that way.
But she wants to go home.
She doesn't know what she wants.
Who would? I am an advocate for the rights of women who can't stand up for themselves.
My work on that compound and in that shelter and Safety Net are my life, Barb-- giving forsaken souls a second chance.
Do you understand what I'm saying? Senator, Michael Sainte to see you.
Thanks, salty.
Hello, senator.
Heard you were gonna be up here today lobbying.
Stuart-- my intern.
- Stuart, Michael Sainte.
- Hello.
What can I do for you? I'd like to talk to you about the soccer stadium that Goji's building in Sandy.
We still need our variance.
I'm afraid that's a local issue.
You're the state senator from the district.
A nod from you would certainly help.
I don't think I can do that.
I hope you don't mind if I'm frank with you.
Well, that doesn't sound too good, does it, Stuart? See, I don't believe in your business model.
Well, that's awfully blunt.
I've heard it's a pyramid.
I see.
Margene said someone told her as much.
And you know what I told her? It isn't true.
I've built a billion-dollar brand with over a million sales distributors in over 30 international markets.
You know what else I said? Her family didn't sound too supportive.
Don't you ever go telling my wife we're not supportive.
You got that? There's a little buzz going on up here about you.
It's fresh buzz.
People who live in glass houses-- thanks for stopping by.
- Thank you.
- Thanks.
Blake, can I talk to you about a scheduling thing? Sure.
I want help on my Safety Net legislation.
It's locked up in committee and I-- the police paid me a visit about you.
What did they ask you? About your third wife and what I know about her age.
I told them I have no information on the matter.
Can you relay a message to the church? If my family and my wives are left alone and no charges brought, then I will resign.
I don't want my kids to see my wife charged as a procurer or me as a rapist.
Sister Henrickson, it's so nice to have you back with us.
Oh, thank you, bishop.
Are you all right? Would like to come to my office and share? No, thank you.
I'm fine.
They'll try to get you to elaborate, but you don't have to.
Remember, "yes," "no," or "I can't recall.
" Now what if they ask me to explain something? "Yes," "no," or "I can't recall.
" - Okay? - Yes.
- Sorry I'm late.
- She's never gonna be able to do this, Bill.
Yes, she will.
Keep rehearsing.
What if gets technical? Like, what if they ask me the difference between procuring and soliciting and befriending? They won't.
Detective Innis is tough, but he's by the book.
Why would you wonder about that? Because I was awake all night trying to think of everything they could think of, and I just started thinking about Ana.
What about Ana? I know you didn't procure me, but-- of course I didn't.
And I know you didn't procure Ana or recruit her.
It gets confusing.
What on earth are you talking about? You were the one who befriended her.
Well, that's not quite true.
You wanted her to marry Bill so you could have a friend.
Don't mischaracterize my position.
You did say that, Barb.
And we've certainly established that you do have a roving eye when you get lonely in your marriage.
Enough.
This discussion is pointless and it's over for good.
No, there's nothing pointless about it.
I'm up for procuring.
I'd enjoy the teensiest inkling of what she intends to say.
"Yes," "no," or "I can't recall.
" What if she does talk? To me, I mean.
What happens then? What are you saying, Nicki? Nothing, except I think I need my own lawyer too-- a different lawyer.
I'm not sure anyone here really has my best interests at heart.
Lee's been our attorney for over 10 years.
We have complete confidence in him.
Not me.
I haven't forgotten how I was maneuvered out of the financial privileges that come with being the legal wife.
Oh, I can't believe you're going there.
He ripped me off.
And it's easy for you to say.
You always get what you want.
You just got my husband.
And then you went and got resealed without me.
What, you thought I didn't know? You didn't want to participate.
And that absolves you of the decency of telling me it was happening? Because we didn't want to hurt your feelings.
Stop it.
I'm about to go into the jaws of a brutal police interrogation, and you're supposed to be reassuring me and preparing me.
Ali said was I want an attorney who's pro-me, not anti-me.
I'm just stating facts.
Mama, Madison came to me, not the other way around, and I introduced him to Bill.
Honey, I don't care who came to who.
I'm begging you, get him to go away.
The whole family almost split apart over that escapade.
Your father and I got your aunt Ida to send him packing, and your poor brother almost killed himself.
We are fighting for our lives on so many fronts.
It makes anything you and papa faced child's play by comparison.
And there is such a thing as justice, mama.
And sometimes the chickens do come home to roost.
Get out of here.
- It's important.
- Mama? Well, what is it? I'm very busy here.
Cara Lynn needs to see a counselor.
She already has a guidance counselor and she has a tutor.
She needs to see a psychotherapist.
You don't what you're talking about.
She needs to talk to someone about the death of her father.
She has me to talk to about that.
I've heard she's been having problems at school.
From who, her friends? She has no friends.
Well, if friends are like your Judas Heather, she's far better off without them.
Back off about Heather.
She didn't know what would happen.
And she will be welcome in these houses.
You know what, Ben? We're done here.
I don't believe in therapy.
People have to solve their own problems.
Cara Lynn's on the college track.
She's fine.
Maybe you're the one who needs to see a counselor.
She needs help.
If you're too blind to see that, maybe you don't deserve to be her mother.
If you don't find one for her, I will.
So how old were you when you began working for the Henricksons? I can't recall.
Well, where were you living at the time? In the wasatch trailer park.
And you were living with? My mom.
Margene, when you realized there was an attraction between you and Mr.
Henrickson, what did you do? I discussed it with my mom.
And what did your mom tell you? She told me Priscilla Presley was - and I should go for the gusto.
- Is that a confession? No, it's not.
Margie, how long were you working there before you began a sexual relationship? You can call me Margie all you want, but it's not gonna change a thing.
I can't recall.
- Who initiated it? - I can't recall.
- Really? - She said she can't recall.
Well, then maybe this will prompt your memory.
That's a copy of your birth certificate.
So let's start off with how old you are now, and we'll just work our way back.
Please.
Please, this whole thing is really just mean-spirited.
Marge, look, let's-- let's just forget about the legal questions for a minute, okay? On a personal level, didn't you ever ask yourself why they wanted you, why they targeted you? They loved me.
Because 16, 18-- either way you were young.
Do you ever think about how your life might have been if you'd never met them? Maybe there's another life for you now.
Are we finished? No, unfortunately.
We're just starting.
Is that you? Where are you going? Nowhere.
Have you seen Bill and Barb? Well, what's in the bag? She's sneaking off with something in her bag.
I'm not sneaking.
Yes, she is.
- Cara Lynn? - You have to tell her.
- Please don't.
- Tell me what? About Mr.
Ivey.
What about Mr.
Ivey? I'm in love with him.
No, it's a schoolgirl crush.
It's more than a crush, Nicki.
What are you saying? What does she mean, more than a crush? What does she mean? Who else knows? Only Ben.
Don't you dare tell another soul.
I don't want anyone to know how you've shamed yourself.
Nicki, they say they love each other.
I said we're not talking about this.
- Stop it.
- You're hurting me.
Not half as much as you've hurt me.
You are going to leave town or I am going to prosecute you.
I'm not going anywhere until you let me talk to her directly.
Sweetheart, are you all right? You are not going to talk to her.
And don't you dare call her sweetheart.
I'm okay.
I said no talking.
Then why did you bring me here? Because I want you to look me in the face and tell me it's over, so he can hear it.
- What if I do leave town? - No.
- What happens to Cara Lynn? - That's none of your business.
- You can't report him.
- Oh really? Just watch me.
I will be taken away by the state.
Is that what you want? Do you want to call even more attention to Bill and the investigation? If you cared what I wanted, you would have behaved differently.
She's bluffing.
Cara Lynn.
Reporting me will only ruin Cara Lynn's life as well as mine.
I will be 16 in four months, and I want your permission to get married.
Are you out of your mind? Never! After everything this family put itself through to adopt you? What is the matter with you? You're all smiley and nice and act like such a good girl, - and then you do this? - Nicolette, please.
You shut up.
I have devoted my life to destroying your kind.
- Please.
- No! Please don't do this to me.
Please.
They interrogated me for over five hours.
They had my original birth certificate.
What about me? Did they ask about me? They asked about you and everything else under the sun.
They asked about child abuse, how you treat the kids.
They asked about your relationship to Roman.
They asked about our access to UEB funds, whether we were living beyond our means.
This is outrageous.
Where have you been? Cara Lynn and I had to run some errands.
The net just keeps getting wider and wider.
They asked about the Greenes and the Walkers, what I knew about our relationship to them.
- Well, there is no relationship.
- That's what I said.
They think Safety Net is a cover for the prophets, when all we're trying to do is save wounded souls.
No, honey, we're not gonna lose the fight.
One way or another, Safety Net will go on.
I just don't necessarily know how.
I'll get Lee to find out fact from fiction, how much of this is scare tactics and how much is real.
But you should know I've offered to resign from the senate if they'll leave us alone.
After everything we've given up and sacrificed? If it'll keep this family from ruin, Barb, then there's no other sensible choice.
Alby's circling the business.
And if I go down, we're through.
The principle goes back to the dark ages.
Instead of being the man that led to its rebirth, I'll be the herald of its death.
Nicki, if ever there was a time to use your influence with your brother, this is it.
If you can take some of the pressure off Bill, you've got to do it.
We're hanging by a thread.
Hey, Nicki, I need to talk to you.
Verlan? Well, what is it? I can't talk long, but listen to me.
Alby wants to kill your husband.
How do you know this? Because he told me.
Because he thinks I'm gonna help him do it.
It's all right.
Don't worry.
He's a coward, and I'm not gonna do it.
But just be-- be careful around him.
Okay? You think you can kill Bill and your problems will be over? Your problems are only beginning.
Who told you such lies? Bud Mayberry is a liar.
My husband is considering resigning from the senate because of you.
The principle is dying because of your abuses.
I am struggling to raise my daughter.
You and your daughter are whores.
And your husband is a whoremaster.
We know why Lura really left you.
We know about Madison.
And we all know about your friend Dale, who would rather hang himself than spend eternity in outer darkness with you.
You'd better stay away from Bill and the stores and our family, because, believe me when I tell you this, we will destroy you.
Thank you so much for calling me in.
I am so sorry that Bill spoke to you like that.
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to apologize on his behalf.
This is isn't about that.
It's about you.
The Latter Day Saints believe in the power of redemption.
You must be under a lot of pressure.
Margie, you're a terrific saleswoman.
It's what you're born to do.
And I hate to meddle, but when people try to hold someone back from their purpose, maybe you have to ask who those people really are.
How many friends do you have? Pam.
One.
And you think that's normal? I don't know.
I used to have more friends.
But then you married into your family.
My sisterwives became my friends.
You sound pretty isolated, kept too busy, too tired and confused to question the truth.
Do you feel that way? Sometimes.
But I'm a mess right now.
I really am.
And now that you found goji, your family is fighting like the devil to pull you back in.
I believe that this is a battle for your soul.
Will you at least think a bit about what I'm saying? What are you saying? I'm saying that I think you're in a cult.
What's going on in here? Glory said that Nicki was here and that you and she were fighting.
Is this about Madison? I'm not stupid.
I know you.
I can see when you tense up.
Everything is fine.
You won't hurt anybody? Not seriously? No.
Honey? You talked to Michael Sainte behind my back.
No, he came to my office to see me.
Not to talk about me, he didn't.
And you said all those things to him about goji.
You had no right.
We're just so concerned about you, Margie.
Oh, I'm pretty concerned too.
Well, we have this literature we want you to look at.
- It's on cults.
- Oh my God.
No, it sets it all out.
You judge for yourself.
Does this organization separate you from your family and friends? Is there no tolerance for questions and critical inquiry? - Please don't.
Please don't.
- Or is the group's leader always right? He's says that you're a cult, that we are.
Us? Well, that's ridiculous.
We're not a cult.
We're a family.
Detective Innis says that you recruited me.
And Michael Sainte says that now you're trying to pull me back in.
Pulling you in? Do you believe that? - Yes.
- Do you? No.
I don't know.
Well, you'd better know.
You'd darn well better figure this out.
- Barb.
- What kind of hold does this ridiculous juice have on you? It's not about the juice.
It's not about the juice.
It's about feeling needed and valued and building bridges in Guatemala.
I mean, that juice has given me my faith.
That juice has given me the whole world.
We committed to loving you when you came into this family, Margene, regardless of how messy or painful things got.
It's love you can count on, no matter how many cans of that juice you sell or how many times you have to fall down and pick yourself up again.
After everything this family is going through, largely because of your actions-- I think I need to be with my babies for a while.
Is it done? Five feet deep, like you asked.
The plan has changed.
What do you mean? Meaning there's someone else-- an apostate.
Now.
Alby, come on.
I want my five thou.
What's the hurry? Don't you want the whole $10,000? Don't even think of running.
You want your money? Earn it.
You're not leaving me.
There are tapes of you reporting to me about your attempt to kill Bill's partner.
You're part of me now.
Well, we can't do this.
There's no strategy.
We need a strategy.
We're gonna get caught.
No one has ever been successfully prosecuted for anything that's ever happened on Juniper Creek.
You're gonna do it, and then it's done.
I thought long and hard about what you said.
And you opened my eyes to a wider world than I'd ever imagined.
And I'm gonna live in that world.
But my family is many things, but we are not a cult, and I cannot allow you to think that.
And I cannot continue to work for you when that's who you think we are.
Salty? Can I get you something from the vending machine-- a sandwich? I'm fine, thanks.
Senator Henrickson, I am a proud lifelong member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, but I believe everyone should get a fair shake.
Hang in there.
Thanks.
Lee, what's going on? I just talked to the DA's office.
They're going after you.
Me? Alone? You.
For what? Contributing to the delinquency of a minor, spiritual marriage, statutory rape.
What am I facing? Up to 20 years.
When? You're a big fish.
I'm sure they want to get it right, cross all the Ts.
There's an indictment panel called.
I would gladly stand trial and make a stand on polygamy or bigamy.
That's fair game.
I knew that going in, but not this.
Not rape.
This is a nightmare, Lee.
Yeah, I know.
Hey hey.
Remove the hood.
Remove the hood.
Oh God.
- Alby.
- Shut up.
- Alby, let her go.
- Shut up.
- She's your sister.
- Stop crying.
We can't.
Alby.
Remove the tape.
Do it.
Please don't.
I have no choice.
You do have a choice.
You do, Alby.
Remember that early spring when papa wouldn't let us go swimming because it was too cold? But we went anyway.
And I waded in too deep and the current swept me away.
But you ran in and pulled me out.
Do you remember? The same blood runs through our veins and always will.
I'm the one person who understands you.
You don't understand me, Nicki.
You can't possibly understand what I've been pushed to by the fallen world and your power-hungry husband! Yes, I can.
No, you can't! I don't want to die.
I don't-- please.
No no no.
This is who we are.
This is who we'll always be.
I don't want to kill you, Nicki.
You're my sister and I love you.
Lee said the indictment's coming down.
I'll be arrested.
And, Barb, you'll have to post my bail unless I get released on my own recognizance.
Then we have to start preparing for the trial.
I could get 20 years.
