Big Sky (2020) s03e12 Episode Script

Are You Mad?

You know, we have this man, Walter.
- Where did they catch that animal?
- Drop the act.
Sunny is Walter's birth mother.
Avery. Who's your friend?
You choose Cassie Dewell
over your own family?
Yeah, I am. I'm done.
I need protection
and I give you a much larger
slice of the pie
This thing with Avery
They're gonna come for him.
And then, they're gonna try to come
for you and Emily.
Oh, I love nutmeg, too, Emily.
How do you know my name?
- What is it?
- I just talked to Cormac.
Uh-huh. I'm gonna go meet up with Jenny,
bring Sunny in, get some answers.
You almost had me there, sweetheart.
Buck?
What the hell?
Buck?
You here?
Paige?
What happened to you?
You know damn well.
No, I don't.
- You sicced your psychotic
- Okay.
husband on me.
What the hell are you talking about?
Buck kidnapped me!
That's not possible.
He tried to kill me!
Where is he?
He's dead.
I killed him.
And I am going to
do the same thing to you.
Back up.
Get back!
Drop the knife!
Thank God y'all showed up.
Come on, Paige, put it down.
- No.
- Put it down.
It's over.
Hey, Dad.
Hey, honey. How are you?
- You good?
- Yeah, totally.
I'm just, uh, grabbing coffee
for everyone.
- What's up?
- Nothing.
Just calling to check on you.
- Like dads do.
- Okay.
Well, I'm about to lose a banana bread,
so consider me checked.
Can we talk later?
- Okay.
- Okay, bye.
Hey. What do you got?
Here's everything I could dig up
on the guy from the hotel shooting.
Oh.
Winston Turner.
Linked to murders and kidnappings
here in the States
and across the border.
He was muscle for a crime outfit
run out of Canada.
How does Avery figure into this?
That smug sonofabitch
saw an opportunity to steal $15 million
that wouldn't get reported stolen.
Maybe not to the police,
but this outfit?
They'll keep coming
till they get their money.
I expect they will.
Sheriff?
Hey, Madge.
Ooh, breakfast burrito time?
Kitchen's closed.
I stopped serving men in 1999.
Oh, huh. Good to know.
As for work,
Jenny has found Paige Alive.
Picked her up with Sunny Barnes.
Paige is alive?
EMTs are transporting her
to the hospital.
And Sunny is in holding here.
What do you remember about
where Buck took you?
Um
Underground.
In the woods.
Underground cellar
or more like a bunker?
It's It's kind of blurry.
I mean, I-I climbed out of there
and just started running.
I waved down a guy on the interstate.
I was
in pretty bad shape.
Yeah.
I saw.
Let me ask you another question.
Why not go to the Sheriff's Department?
Why go after Sunny?
Because she was in on it.
Paige, it seems to me
that you avoided the police
because of the stolen money.
Are you hearing anything
that I'm saying?
The psycho tortured me!
He had hearts in jars!
I'm sorry. Hearts?
Yes.
Like
human trophies.
And I wasn't his first victim.
You know, if I were you,
I'd be doing myself a favor,
and I'd start talking.
I don't understand.
He's really gone?
She said Buck's dead?
We're still trying to locate
where he took Paige.
What do you know about
the Bleeding Heart Killer?
Nothing.
I just can't believe this.
Okay, well, we have Paige's statement
saying that Buck kidnapped her
and tried to kill her
and that you knew all about it.
I tried to help her.
How?
By keeping her safe from the people
that she took the money from.
I bet Buck found her up at the camp.
You think he's capable of all this?
I don't know what to think anymore.
Except I do think it's time
for me to call my lawyer.
You're running out of time here, Sunny.
You gotta get out in front of this.
Said all I'm gonna say.
Okay.
Okay. Fine.
This is your one chance.
One last thing.
Paige is alive.
Proves Walter's innocent.
Least you can do is let my boy out.
That really what you're concerned about?
Maybe if I patch things up with him,
he can help us find out
where Buck's hiding.
If he's alive.
Let me see what I can do.
Yeah, you do that.
Buck Barnes. I can't believe it.
Yeah, it's him.
I had a feeling the minute
he lied about the truck.
We need to find this bunker of his.
So, Paige was hitchhiking
down Highway 15.
Well, that would put the bunker
in the forest north of here.
That is a lot of wilderness to search.
Well, we can narrow it down.
All these carvings happened
in the same general area,
sort of like a territory.
And if he was keeping trophies
in this bunker, then maybe
Maybe it's a treasure map. Yeah.
A sick and twisted one.
Mm.
Now we just need to
figure out how to read it.
What about Sunny?
Can't she help decipher any of this?
Mnh-mnh. She's a dead end.
She lawyered up
and claims to know nothing.
So her focus is on pushing
Walter's innocence.
And now that Paige has showed up
he's gonna be released.
You've reached Carla de Lugo.
Leave a message, and I'll call you back.
Uh, hey, Carla, um
Look, I-I know I've messed up.
But, uh
You and Emily mean everything to me.
And I know Beau
said some things about me,
but he doesn't know the whole story.
And I'm gonna figure this out.
I promise.
I made a call like that once.
In my experience, if you're
making a call like that,
it's already over, pal.
You're here for the money.
'Fraid it's too late.
I've been instructed to
blow your kneecaps off first.
You won't see any of the money.
Let me finish.
After your kneecaps, I'm thinkin'
I'll use a blowtorch
and a vice on your wife.
Your daughter?
Haven't thought of her treat yet.
There is just one thing that, uh,
you haven't thought of.
Really, pal?
What's that?
Me.
Wouldn't a gun have been easier?
Out of practice.
Had to be sure.
Still got it.
I mean, I suspected he was
up to something, but
I just can't believe it.
I know.
I'm truly so sorry.
I should've known.
I sh I should've seen it.
He fooled a lot of people.
There was this one time
we were hunting in Bitterroot Valley.
I couldn't have been
more than 10 or 11 years old.
Something woke me out of a dead sleep.
I went outside and saw
my dad just standing there,
staring at this patch of dirt
talking to something
in some kind of weird trance.
The next morning,
I went out and tried to look
at the patch of dirt,
he just said something bad had happened.
You know this isn't on you.
You were just a kid.
I think you should go home
and just take some time.
No.
I'm not going anywhere. I wanna help.
- Cormac.
- I gotta do something.
Okay.
These heart carvings,
I think they're a map
that could lead us to the bunker,
but so far, no luck.
That's 'cause you're missing some.
There should be one here.
Wait. Here?
And here.
So the bunker could be up here?
Yeah. Yeah, it could be.
I need to take this
to Jenny and Beau right now.
Yeah.
Hey.
It probably feels like
you want to push everything down.
Don't.
Feel it, all of it.
Trust me.
Come on. Get in.
It's okay. Everybody knows the truth.
Yeah. Come on, get in.
I'll take you home.
I'd rather walk.
What are you talkin' about?
Walk where?
Buck hurt Paige.
Yeah, they told me.
You gonna deny it?
I am not.
You were right about him.
I should've listened to you.
You're free now, and so am I.
Don't know for how long, but
we gotta think about our future, Walter.
We gotta make a plan.
But first, you gotta get in.
Come on, please, get in.
Cassie's on her way.
The SAR team's K9 unit picked up
Paige's scent out by the highway.
Must've been where she, uh,
stopped to look for a ride.
It's gonna be tough to locate a bunker
in these woods.
- Sheriff, do you copy?
- Hey, go for Arlen.
Dogs just lost the scent.
Copy that. Keep me posted.
We must be close. Let's fan out.
Yeah.
Hey.
Hey. The deputies down on the fire road
pointed me in your direction.
- Anything yet?
- No. No, nothing.
Okay, well, we were missing two hearts.
Here and here.
They're further out than the other ones.
What if the underground bunker
is outside of the cluster?
According to the map,
it's gotta be this way.
Okay.
Okay.
Last one should be somewhere here.
Right there.
Good eye. Yeah.
We're close.
Hey, guys.
You were right, Cass.
Bunker near the hearts.
Sheriff's Department!
Clear!
Paige was lucky
to make it out of here alive.
Yeah, there's definitely
a sign of a struggle,
but no sign of Buck.
Sonofabitch is still out there.
Hey, guys.
What the?
Blaire Lucan.
Oh, my God.
Aah!
Hey, hey, Lulu!
Oh, my God. Sir.
Sir, are you all right? What happened?
Where am I?
You're in the woods.
Well, you need a ride to the hospital.
You got a car?
Yeah, there's a turnout about
a quarter mile west of here.
- You think you can move?
- I don't I don't know.
- Here, let me help you. Come on.
- Thank you.
Easy, easy, easy, easy, easy.
Come here.
Come here, pup.
Ah, who do we got here?
Lulu.
Hello, Lulu.
Mm.
Everything's gonna be alright.
I'll call you as
soon as I can. Okay, thanks.
Hey. So the, uh, victim's name
is Gabriel Irving.
His neck was broken.
Looks like the, uh, killer
used his bare hands.
So, I just talked to his sister.
He hunts up this way.
His rifle and truck are missing.
Crime techs don't believe that the blood
smeared on his clothes is even his.
This is Buck.
You think he's making a run for it?
Maybe. I don't know.
Mm. I doubt he'll stray too far.
This is Buck's hunting ground.
What are you thinking?
We have to go back to Sunny.
She's gotta know something.
Yeah, you're right.
Alright, we'll set up
a grid search in case
Buck decides to ditch the truck
and escape on foot.
And he's badly hurt,
so what would be his next move?
Agh!
Okay. So I've got you a cellphone
and some new clothes, and
If we leave right now,
we can make Lethbridge by nightfall.
I'd like to have been in
one of these pictures.
Yeah, I would've liked that, too.
But it wasn't possible.
Why not?
Are you seriously asking me that?
I was trying to protect you, Walter.
Tell me the truth.
You knew Buck was bad all along.
You're wrong. No, I-I didn't know.
I mean, I knew about the drinking,
but I thought your father
had moved past that.
He's not my father.
Okay. That has nothing to do with this.
It has everything to do with it.
All that time that you
spent convincing me
that I was a rotten apple?
It wasn't me. It was you.
It was you and Buck.
How can you say that?
You made me into a monster
in your own mind.
Okay, honey, I don't know
where this is coming from,
but we don't have time with it.
We gotta get on the road.
Did you know Buck was there the night
Blaire Lucan was murdered?
I tried to tell you.
I tried, but you wouldn't listen to me.
Did you know?
Good Lord, no, I didn't know.
Buck's dead.
He's gonna have to stand before God now.
Cormac won't even speak to me.
So it's just you and me, Walter.
I don't need your protection anymore.
It's time to say goodbye.
No, Walter.
No.
Walter, please, don't do this.
Please. Goodbye, Mama.
No! No.
No.
You have eyes on the wife?
I do.
She appears to be a real boss lady.
She might do better
with a friendly chat.
Lay out the facts.
Wait on my word.
Okay. Cassie's on her way back.
It's gonna be a long night.
Do you want me to grab
some sandwiches from across the street?
You know, I'll go this time.
Get some steps in.
Okay.
Hey, just avoid the creeper.
Some guy in a suit
complimented my drink.
Who does that?
A weirdo. Yeah.
You man the fort and ring me
when Cassie gets back.
Okay.
Speak of the devil. Cassie?
Deputy Hoyt, I'm gonna tell you
the same thing I told the Sheriff
May we come in?
Sure.
You found Buck's body, didn't you?
No, ma'am.
We have reason to believe
that Buck is still alive.
How?
We can't discuss that with you.
Has he tried to contact you?
No.
If you're lying, we'll find out.
Don't have any reason to lie.
Okay.
Well, I'm gonna assign a unit
to your property.
For your safety.
Let us know immediately
if he contacts you.
Hi, there.
Trip to the dry-cleaners?
No, ma'am.
I hand-steam and iron all my clothes.
'Cept for my silk suit.
That's best left to professionals.
Right.
So then you're following me.
I wouldn't exactly call it that.
Observing.
Not after I make four left turns
and found you still
in my rearview mirror.
Just know that our next stop
is to visit my ex-husband
at the sheriff's station.
I hope you have a nice day.
Be safe out there.
You too.
Hi.
Hello.
You shouldn't have lied for me.
Well, if I hadn't, the, uh
bad guys would've kept looking for you.
But you would've spent
your whole life behind bars.
Wasn't so bad.
May I?
Your mom set me up, didn't she?
I don't know.
Buck's not dead.
I thought I killed him,
but one of the deputies said he's gone.
I don't want you to be afraid anymore.
I'm gonna take care of this.
Walter
I know what needs doing.
Just wait.
Don't you worry.
Right. Yeah, no, no,
I under I understand.
Okay.
Yeah.
Alright, bye.
What's going on?
Manhunt for Buck Barnes.
I'm a little swamped right now.
Can this wait?
No, it can't.
I got followed today, Beau.
And Avery left me some weird message.
Wait. Who followed you?
Some cowboy.
I'm telling you,
it really freaked me out.
Okay.
W-Where's Em?
- At work.
- Have you heard from her?
No, not since this morning.
I'm back.
Denise?
Emily?
Hey. Is Emily with you?
No, I-I was calling to see
if she was still at the office.
Well, I just I just got
here, and no one's here.
I mean, all their stuff is here, but
Something's not right.
I'm on my way to you right now.
Okay.
Oh, God. What do we do?
Listen to me. Stay here.
Keep your phone close to you.
I'm gonna go find her.
I promise. Okay.
Someone flipped the breaker,
cut the power,
and then broke in here. Great.
So no power, no surveillance footage.
No.
Okay. Let's think.
Why take Denise and Emily?
It's got to do with Avery
and the money he stole.
I need to find him.
Any idea where he might be held up?
- Carla will know.
- Do you want me to go with you?
No.
Get a response team ready, okay?
But I don't want anybody doing anything
without checking with me!
Where is she? Where is she?!
- Who?
- Emily!
- Someone took her!
- No.
I swear to you, Avery,
if anything happens to her,
I'm gonna destroy you.
Just wait, wait.
Look, I'm meeting Tony tonight,
to make the deal, alright?
Does he have them?!
I I don't know. How do I
Where's my daughter, Avery?!
I'm gonna go with you to this meeting.
I can't turn up with
law enforcement, can I?
- What?
- That'll be bad for everyone.
Look, everything's planned.
Let's just stick to the plan, alright?
You think that I'm gonna let you
freelance on this, Avery?
You're gonna wear a wire.
You're gonna wear a wire,
and I'm gonna listen to every word
that is said in that meeting.
I know you have no reason to trust me,
but you have to believe me
when I say to you
that that I
I want Emily back, too.
I want her back!
Then, man, you better start
listening to me.
You better start listening to me
and do exactly as I say.
Denise's phone was ditched
on the side of the road
half a mile from the office.
Wait. So we can't track them.
We'll find another way.
Hey. Yeah, someone just called in,
said they saw a man fitting
Buck Barnes' description
leaving the Four Corners Quick Mart.
I'll check it out.
You focus on Denise and Emily.
Any activity at Avery's house?
Nothing so far.
Hey. Did you find Avery?
Yeah, I found him.
Do you really trust Avery on this?
It's the best lead we got,
so I'm gonna have to.
So they took Emily as collateral.
Yeah, that had to be the move.
I cannot believe that I let this happen.
This is not your fault.
We'll get them back.
You know I'm here for you.
That's my baby.
It's your call.
Whatever you want to do,
I got your back.
I gotta play this thing out with Avery.
Okay. Then
Then that's what we'll do.
What's the story here, gentlemen?
Old husband bonding with new husband?
Came by to sample one of
Donno's famous sandwiches?
No, not exactly.
Yeah, I didn't think so.
Relax. I'm not here to arrest you.
Well, no sandwiches, no arrests.
I'm all out of guesses.
There's been a new development
with tonight's meeting.
My daughter has gone missing.
So has Denise. Somebody has taken them.
Put 'em on a milk carton.
Sounds like a job for law enforcement.
I know about your deal with Avery, okay?
And I need you to back him as planned.
He needs to make that deal
with this Tony, okay?
'Cause the only thing that matters to me
is that Emily and Denise
do not get hurt.
And what are we getting out of it?
No arrests. Thought we covered that.
And the money's yours.
All of it.
You got yourself a deal.
Then we're on the same page?
Emily and Denise do not get hurt.
Yeah.
Donno?
I don't like it.
In bed with law types
and sneaky English.
He probably hunts foxes.
One last job, Donno.
That's it.
Then we're out.
Scottish.
Tonya.
No serenade this time?
So, who are these, uh, guys, hmm?
Yeah, well, that's Tex.
And these are The Toronto Triplets.
I believe you're acquainted
with them, Donno.
They're not real triplets.
Ask about Emily and Denise, damn it!
He's letting us know
how many people are in there.
This is good.
Yeah, that sonofabitch thinks
he's a lot smarter than he really is.
Stick to the plan, Avery.
Stick to the plan.
Since my man vanished,
and your kneecaps
seem in fine shape, Avery,
I'm going to assume that you
offered Tonya and Donno here
a better deal than I did.
With money that don't belong to you.
Where's my daughter?
Where's my money?
You get half. That's the deal.
Really?
Only if Emily's safe.
And what if she's not?
I'm not gonna ask you again.
Where is my daughter?
Just put the gun away.
What the hell's he doing?
He's got a gun.
Hey, do we move?
Your call.
No, not until we get
a location on the girls.
Did you take his little girl, Tony?
What the hell is it to you, Tex?
"Take the money, take the ride."
I draw the line at kids.
The hell are you doing?
What's it look like?
You're welcome to shoot me in the back,
but I don't believe you will.
Adios.
Just put the gun away.
'Cause I've got a deal for you.
The only one you'll get.
Now, you prove to me
that you have the money
and that you can transfer our "half"
to us right now
and I'll tell you where Emily is.
Guns down, boys.
You too, Donno.
I think Avery's being very smart.
And we're even about to be friends.
All I have to do is enter
the amount and hit send.
Now you tell me where my daughter is.
Wow. You must really love that girl.
Yes.
Yes, I do.
- Move!
- Right behind ya!
Move in!
Well, now that we've got
the amateur out of the way,
I think we can, uh
You okay?
Yeah, I think so.
Cover me! Reloading!
I got you now!
Donno?!
No, no, no, no, no! No, no.
No, no.
I'm alright.
No.
Help!
Somebody help him!
You remember when you
When you stabbed me with that stick?
Of course.
Not killing you was the
best thing I ever did.
No.
No, no, no, no, no. Stay with me.
Okay, Donno, stay right here
and stay with me.
Look at me, please.
Please, somebody help!
Nobody move! Sheriff's Department!
Please help!
Hey.
We need a medic. Call an ambulance.
Where is she, huh? Where is my daughter?
I-I
I don't have her.
It was someone else.
Who? Who?!
What is it?
Multiple bodies down. We need
Buck has them.
Oh, that's good. Sing it, George!
Ain't this good?
Sunny and I danced to that
song at our wedding.
Man, oh, man,
she had white cowboy boots on
under that dress, the little minx.
Had 'em embroidered in blue
thread with our wedding date.
June 21st.
Summer solstice.
Longest day of the year.
You know what? You need to be quiet.
Listen to me.
'Cause I am the Alpha
and I am the Omega.
But right now, if you don't mind,
I've got an important call to make.
Buck? Buck, is that you?
Buck?
Are you mad?
