Shooter (2016) s03e13 Episode Script

Red Light

1 BOB LEE: Previously, on "Shooter" SOLOTOV: Atlas and the Swaggers have been interlinked since the beginning.
[GUNSHOT.]
BOB LEE: Brooks killed my father.
You're going to prison, not the Supreme Court.
Swagger! I run this country me.
Not you and your goddamn cabal.
For decades, presidents have told me the very same thing.
BOB LEE: Must be Atlas operations HQ.
I came here to take out the top of the food chain.
[DEVICE BEEPING.]
- [PHONE RINGING.]
- BAMA: Brooks is dead.
There is no Atlas.
- BAMA: You and I are not finished.
- I never said I was.
An event is imminent, right here in D.
C.
I need you to find out what it is and stop it.
You'll still have the problem of these evil forces - in the shadows.
- ALVAREZ: Unless you agree to shoulder the burden.
Sweetheart, this is the last thing - I need to do.
- I'm done.
Mary needs at least one parent.
- Don't give up on us.
- This is just who you are.
You're the man that runs towards a bomb and not away from one.
BAMA: If I'm willing to make that sacrifice with my family, what do you think I'd be willing to do to yours? You do anything to them, your body will hit the ground before you even hear a gunshot.
There's a 4-4 split on the court.
BOB LEE: Brooks would have made it 5-4.
Brooks dies.
There is no backup nominee.
But 4-3 would still win it for them.
They're gonna kill a Supreme Court Justice.
ISAAC: He's been building a bomb in here.
- BOB LEE: What's his target? - TEACHER: So, who's exced to go visit the Supreme Court today? - [ALL CHEERING.]
- NADINE: FBI! Evacuate the area! ISAAC: The explosion is a diversion to get the Justices evacuated.
- [DEVICE BEEPING.]
- Shit.
Mom! Mom! - Where you going? - Supreme Court! He's gonna pick up his target there! Nadine.
Justice, you've been ordered to evacuate.
Let's go.
[MUFFLED SIRENS.]
[MUFFLED SPEECH.]
[TENSE MUSIC.]
- I'll go with her.
- [GROANING.]
I'll go with her.
I I'm not gonna be much help - in a gunfight.
- ISAAC: Then don't get in one.
Bob Lee doesn't need a second gun, he needs someone to help him navigate that building.
[GROANS.]
Go.
Okay.
All right.
[GROANS.]
You, too.
Not a chance.
[RADIO CHATTER.]
MAN: This way, please.
Move towards the lawn.
This way, this way! Towards the street, please.
Toward the lawn.
Guys, this way.
This way please.
Not gonna work.
If you try any eyes-knees-groin, they're gonna think you're the terrorist.
The bus was a decoy.
I think the bomber went this way.
I gotta get in to this building.
You have any ideas? Yeah, follow me.
Move towards the lawn! - This way, this way - HARRIS: Uh, excuse me, hi.
We need to find, uh, Henry Van Tassell.
- He's an aide to Justice Stewar.
- Can't do it.
Building's being evacuated, sir.
Yeah, that's the problem.
He called me about ten minutes ago before the bomb went off He sounded scared; he said he was in trouble here.
So, look, do what you gotta do, we're gonna go look for him.
- Hold on - Anybody of value - has been evacuated okay? - No, you guys Keep the ID! Keep it, okay? We're not the bad guys.
Thank you.
It's a big place.
- Where's the judges' chambers? - This way, this way.
Come on.
[METAL CLANGING.]
[MAN SHOUTING.]
Wait, what's that? - [MAN MOANING.]
- BOB LEE: Shit - [GROANS.]
- BOB LEE: What happened? - You okay? - My head Who did this? I didn't get a look at him, but I need to get to Justice Gibson.
- Why? - [BREATHING HEAVILY.]
I'm her driver.
[SINISTER MUSIC.]
- This is ridiculous.
- Ma'am? Think we're outside the blast radius yet? Turn around.
I have work to do.
The evacuation protocols are very clear.
Don't talk to me about protocol, young man.
Protocol calls for my regular driver.
Yes, ma'am.
- Where are we going? - Arlington.
Oh, good.
I can stop by and say hello to my husband.
[SIREN CHIRPING.]
[SIREN CHIRPS.]
I'm not the Queen, get out of my way.
Ramiro, it's my lucky day.
Oh, is it? How's Dolores? Oh, she's always worried, you know.
Drag us out of our office for nothing.
HARRIS: Okay, so we know the evac location.
- What's the plan? - Find a radio and call it in.
Uh, we can't.
Coms are encrypted during a terrorist event so nobody can listen in.
What are you doing? Where are you going? - Improvising.
- What Are you gonna steal this cop car? - BOB LEE: Yup.
- What do I do? Report me and tell them where I went.
Okay.
[TIRES SQUEALING.]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
[INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENTS OVER PA.]
- Mr.
Johnson.
- Yes.
- Husband? - Brother.
Okay, uh, she's stable, but she's in bad shape.
Shrapnel grazed her carotid artery.
And that's the good news, 'cause three millimeters to the right and she would have died.
- She awake? - Uh, no.
You're you're welcome to stay.
Uh, or if there's a change, we can always try to call you, - but as you can see, it's - I'll stay.
All right, I'll let somebody know.
- Yeah.
- HARRIS: Hey.
News? She's stable now, but touch-and-go earlier.
[SIGHS.]
Jesus.
Um, I'm on my way.
I gotta walk, every street is gridlocked.
HARRIS: Looks like the target was Justice Gibson.
- They get her? - HARRIS: Not yet.
Bob Lee stole a police car and is driving it to Arlington.
He wanted me to tell you.
HARRIS: Isaac? ISAAC: I'm not going anywhere.
Tell Nadine I'll see her soon.
Yeah.
[PHONE BEEPS.]
[SIGHS.]
- What's this for? Swabbing for anthrax, Justice Gibson.
My understanding is it was a bomb, Corpsman.
Just a precaution.
Need your weapon and your mobile.
I'm responsible for the Justice's safety.
Not here.
I'm told you can make personal calls - from a secure line.
- Who would I call? I'd rather have a chat with my colleagues.
Where are we waiting? Just down the corridor here, ma'am.
You can stay here.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
I'm just going to go grab some paperwork.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC.]
[FLARE HISSING.]
Get into the safe room! Shit.
MAN: Stop.
- Hands up.
- All right.
- I'm SWAT, I'm off-duty.
- ID, now.
Okay, it's in my wallet.
- I'm gonna reach for it.
- Slowly.
MAN: This way, please.
Everybody inside.
[KEYPAD BEEPING.]
[GASPS.]
Wow.
Yeah, okay, now I'm scared.
[MONITORS BEEPING.]
[GROANS SOFTLY.]
You don't look so bad for someone who got shrapnel in their neck.
You look pretty bad for someone who didn't.
- How's the kid? - ISAAC: She's fine.
You saved her.
She's lucky.
Bad shit is always gonna happen, Nadine.
How we respond to it, that's what matters.
They killed my wife, I killed them.
That was the wrong play.
- We gotta take this all the way.
- [CHUCKLES.]
I'm not sure there's anyone left, Isaac.
There's always someone.
So, what, you want to take on the world? Yeah.
But in the right way.
You really want to do this? Become Atlas? POTUS practically engraved the invitation.
Like I told Gregson Nature hates a vacuum.
Somebody needs to fill it.
Where's Swagger? He got a lead.
Justice Gibson.
What what are you doing here? Because if he fails, they'll be here next.
You're in no condition to fight.
This reminds me of that bomb threat from two years ago.
At least that time we were locked down in our chambers.
I hate to say it, but there are worse places to die.
I'm proud of the work we do.
Some nutball wants to silence us, we must be doing something right.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
I need to see Justice Gibson.
No one in or out till all-clear.
I'm not asking.
[SINISTER MUSIC.]
Don't touch him! [GASPS.]
[TENSE MUSIC.]
[SIREN WAILING DISTANTLY.]
Shit.
[DEBRIS CLATTERING.]
He's got a suicide vest.
Jesus Christ.
Ramiro, the moment he opens the door, he's gonna blow that thing.
I don't think a fire extinguisher's gonna help.
It's over.
BOB LEE: Atlas is dead! You're doing this for nothing, man.
[PANEL BEEPS.]
[GRUNTS.]
Go, go, go! Go! Get out of here! [BOTH MEN GRUNTING.]
[SHRIEKS.]
[CRIES OUT.]
MAN: Homeland Security is set to hold a press conferen at 5:00 to address the atta He used to sleep through mortar attacks - at our base.
- NADINE: [LAUGHS.]
NADINE: At least he doesn't snore.
I see they kept your name out of it.
Yeah, FBI felt it would be too confusing.
They went with the less complicated version.
Hm.
Lone nutjob, huh? There was nothing to connect him to Atlas.
- How are you? - NADINE: [CHUCKLES.]
Couple of new battle scars, but alive.
And grateful.
You still planning on taking over Atlas? ISAAC: Not alone.
NADINE: Ah, the dead rise.
Atlas was a mistake.
But there's always gonna be someone - trying to run things.
- Might as well be the good guys.
Is that you? I think so.
NADINE: Any word on Bama? No, not yet.
- Where's Harris? - Apparently he started a new job, and he brought me flowers earlier.
[LAUGHS.]
- Classy.
- NADINE: And Julie? - That's where I'm headed next.
- Smart man.
Once you get that squared, we're accepting resumes.
BOB LEE: [CHUCKLES.]
It's tempting, but I think I'll pass.
I wanna focus on saving my marriage instead of the world.
She'll be happy to see you.
We'll see.
Take care of yourself.
Both of you.
Shit gets weird out there.
[MELLOW MUSIC.]
HARRIS: Red, thanks for coming.
I didn't come to see you, pissant.
- Where is he? - HARRIS: Camp David.
- Asked me to speak with you.
- Did he? Wanted me to thank you for your service.
Hmm.
My resignation.
- You gotta be shitting me.
- I'd offer you pancakes, but pretty sure the commissary's - done serving breakfast.
- I want to talk to POTUS, now.
He's spending the weekend with his wife.
Do-not-disturb kind of thing, if you know what I mean.
Enjoy your small victory, Downey.
I'll be back.
HARRIS: That's, uh, Deputy Chief of Staff Downey, Red.
And I doubt it.
Uh, the president has actually asked me to have the Department of Labor look into the use of undocumented immigrants in meat packing plants.
Specifically, in Texas.
Says they should go back 30 years if they have to.
I will burn this whole place to the ground, young man.
With what? Look around, Red.
You don't have any friends left.
Make sure you leave your government ID with the Secret Service on your way out.
[BRIGHT, TENSE MUSIC.]
Yeah.
Hey, you're home.
I'm so glad you're safe.
- Where's Mary? - She's with Anne.
They'll be back later.
She's missed you like crazy.
Yeah, we [TENSE MUSIC.]
Look, I'm I'm glad that you're home, but we still need to talk.
What is all this? I don't know what to do.
Baby, I don't want you to leave.
I know that, but what about everything with your dad? - It's done, it's over.
- Are you sure? The man who killed my father is dead.
- And what about Atlas? - BOB LEE: Atlas is finished.
Isaac and Nadine are working some angle, but it has nothing to do with me.
I don't I don't know how to trust you anymore.
I just don't.
That's fair.
But before you make a decision about us, there is one thing left to do, and I need you and Mary by my side to do it.
BROWN: This would have made Sam and your daddy both happy.
- BOB LEE: I agree.
- MARY: Don't you want to say something? Kinda think I've said all I can say, Mouse.
But this is the last time we're gonna see them.
You're right.
These two men raised me, Mary.
They both taught me everything I know.
Right from wrong, good from bad.
I loved and respected both of them in different ways.
Was Grandpa Earl a good dad? Like you? BOB LEE: He did the best he could.
Grandpa had a secret something that made him feel bad and sometimes that bad feeling came out as anger.
I never wanted to be that way.
That's over now.
Sam helped bring my daddy some peace and some peace to us too.
[MELLOW MUSIC.]
You ready? Okay.
[THUNDER RUMBLES.]
Hey.
Ignore him, all right? Just give me a minute.
[TENSE MUSIC.]
Unless you're here to confess to arranging my daddy's murder, you best leave.
I came to tell you this fight is over.
I'm selling the cattle company and walking away.
- From all of it.
- Bullshit.
Swagger, you beat me.
I've lost everything that was ever important to me, including my son.
- All of it was your choice.
- BAMA: And so was this.
I'm gone.
I just don't want to spend the rest of my life waiting for one of your bullets.
Then leave Texas.
Don't come back.
You don't deserve to stand on the same ground my dad's buried in.
NADINE: I see you've been busy.
ISAAC: It is amazing what you can do with a no-limit Amex.
Signed a lease, made it official.
What are we calling it? "Prometheus.
" You realize he was tortured for helping humanity, right? Thought it fit.
We're gonna need some staff and a CEO.
- That gonna be you, Captain? - I do have the experience.
Ah, but, uh, I have the money.
Okay, so, partners? Fifty-fifty? I handle the politics, you handle the missions.
Works for me.
- NADINE: What's that? - ISAAC: No idea.
Anyone else have keys to this place? There is no key, it's digital.
Present from Red? [TENSE MUSIC.]
What is it? It's the hard drive from the Atlas campus.
This is a complete record of everything they ever did.
Holy shit.
Looks like Carlita made it out after all.
Not sure if that's good or bad.
Guess we'll find out.
Jules? - What are you doing, honey? - Finishing the packing.
BOB LEE: Where's Mouse? JULIE: She's at Anne's hotel with her.
Please, Jules, let's just Look, baby, this isn't gonna work, okay? Why not? Because I saw the way that you looked at Red.
- I know what you want to do.
- Julie, it's over.
- He's leaving town.
- But you don't want it - do be over, do you? - Yes, I do! So you're just gonna let the man who's responsible for your father's death walk away? Come on, Bob Lee, you are who you are.
I am still the man you fell in love with, Julie.
- I haven't changed.
- I have.
I've changed.
[SOMBER MUSIC.]
So you don't love me anymore.
I will never stop loving you.
- Then don't leave! - I just don't love this anymore.
- It's gonna change, I promise! - Look, thank you for saying that, but we both know that's not true.
You know that there is nothing more important to me than you and Mary.
Nothing.
I do know that.
But our lives have revolved around you for so long.
We need a break.
[SIGHS.]
Just a break? I don't want a divorce.
I don't, but I don't know we need a reset.
Something.
Then I'll leave.
This is Mary's home.
I wanna know that the two of you are here.
We'll figure this out, okay? I'll tell Mary when she comes home.
No.
I want it to come from me.
I don't want her to think any of this is your fault.
'Cause it's not.
I'll get my things.
Crazy to think that a lifetime worth of work can be undone with a signature.
Cayman accounts set up? - As instructed.
- Excellent.
Well, then we're done.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
Have him come in the back way, honey.
It might be better if you left now, Mark.
[SIGHS.]
[FOREBODING MUSIC.]
You have an excellent reputation, Prosada.
What do they call you back home in Colombia? - El Carnicero.
- The Butcher.
I'm a butcher as well and when people pay me for meat, I deliver.
[CHUCKLES.]
You will have what you desire.
Hundred now, hundred when it's done.
Split it any way you want.
Just Swagger? Whoever's there.
No witnesses.
As you wish.
[SOLEMN MUSIC.]
I don't know how long.
You always go away, Dad.
And you always come back.
Yeah.
BOB LEE: This time's a little different.
Mom and Dad need some time apart.
I'm not going on a mission.
Where are you going? I'm gonna get a place nearby.
MARY: Why? BOB LEE: 'Cause we're gonna live separate for a little while.
What? Not not forever, sweetie.
Just until we get some things figured out.
'Cause you and Mom have been fighting? No.
[PHONE BUZZING.]
Not a good time, Sheriff.
You expecting any VIPs today? - Why? - BROWN: Just clocked a low-flying helicopter.
landed not too far from your ranch.
All right, send everybody you got to the ranch.
Anne, I need you to take Mary and get out of here.
- What's going on? - I think something's up.
Uh, can you just take her to the Sheriff's office and wait there? I'll call you as soon as I can.
Come on, Mary.
We're gonna go run - a little errand.
- What about Dad? Uh, I'll see you soon, sweetheart.
I gotta go check on Mommy, all right? ANNE: Yeah.
Come on, sweetheart.
[FOREBODING MUSIC.]
[TURNS KEY.]
Oh, shit.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
[LINE RINGING.]
[WATER RUNNING.]
[LINE RINGING.]
JULIE: This is Julie.
You know what to do.
[VOICEMAIL BEEPS.]
[BULLETS WHIZZING.]
[KEYPAD BEEPING.]
[PANTING.]
[TIRES SQUEALING.]
[RAPID GUNFIRE.]
[BULLETS WHINING.]
[EXCLAIMS.]
[BULLETS WHINING.]
[KEYPAD BEEPING.]
WOMAN: 9-1-1, what's your emergency? Hello? Shit.
[SIREN WAILING.]
MAN: 9-1-1 says they've got an open line at the Swagger ranch.
Sounds like a hell of a gunfight.
All hands on deck.
Call Testa and have his men back us up.
[CRIES OUT.]
[SIREN WAILING.]
[GRUNTS.]
[MOANS.]
[EXCLAIMS.]
Bitch.
[GRUNTS.]
You gotta be prepared, puta.
This ain't no bullshit.
Bulletproof.
Bad luck.
Is this bulletproof? [GRUNTS.]
[TENSE MUSIC.]
- Julie! - JULIE: Bob Lee! Julie! JULIE: Bob Lee! I'm in here! - BOB LEE: Baby! - [GASPING, GROANING.]
[SCREAMS IN PAIN.]
- Are there any more? - No, just two dead.
[GROANS.]
- Holy shit.
- Good hunting, babe.
- Where's Mary? She's with Anne and she's safe.
[GASPS, GROANS.]
Let me see that, let me see.
[GROANS.]
All right, it went all the way through.
- That's good, that's good.
- [GASPING.]
- You're gonna be okay.
- Baby, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I lost faith in us and in you.
Come on, don't think about that right now.
- BROWN: Bob Lee! - We're in here, Sheriff! BOB LEE: We need an EMT, but we're okay.
- Hey, make sure we got 'em all.
- BROWN: Done! No, no, no, let's wait for a stretcher.
No, I wanna get the hell out of here.
Okay, all right.
Let me help you, come here.
- [GASPING.]
- You're gonna be okay.
- I'm so sorry, baby.
- It's okay.
[BOTH BREATHING HEAVILY.]
It would have been better if I just left it alone.
My dad let this life consume him.
I'm not gonna be like that.
- I love you, and I love Mary.
- [GASPING.]
This is my life.
I love you too, baby.
[SIRENS WAILING.]
[SOMBER MUSIC.]
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]
- We're all clear, Sheriff.
- God damn.
It was a hell of a day.
[FOREBODING MUSIC.]
- All right - No.
No, your dad's gun.
I don't care about that.
I do.
[BULLET WHINING.]
No! No, no! Julie! No, no, no! No! God, no! No! No, baby, no! No! Help! Help! Help! Baby, don't leave me.
Don't leave me, baby.
Don't leave me! [WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY.]
Julie [WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY.]
I'm sorry.
- NADINE: How'd it go? - ISAAC: As expected.
Package got delivered.
The new guy did well.
It's gonna take me the better part of a year to get through all this Atlas stuff and undo it.
- Any word from Bob Lee? - No, he's been off the grid since Julie's funeral.
Got around-the-clock security on Mary and the sister-in-law.
- Nothing out of the ordinary.
- He'll resurface, trust me.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
Excuse me? Uh, I have a Harris Downey here? Send him in.
[CHUFFS.]
What's he want? No idea.
Want me to stay? Knowing Harris, he probably wants to talk about our relationship.
Yeah, please stay.
Have fun.
Uh [SCOFFS.]
- ISAAC: "HD.
" - HARRIS: Isaac.
- He is still so friendly.
- He is who he is.
It's reliable.
Hi.
So how's the Deputy Chief of Staff? Short on time, especially since, technically, I'm not even here.
The president's impressed.
He appreciates the way you cleaned up, didn't make a thing out of it.
Wanted to know if you'd take a look at that.
- We're pretty busy.
- The president's asking.
Personally.
[SIGHS.]
[TENSE MUSIC.]
- Jesus.
- Christophe Schneizer.
German nationalist.
Isn't it easier just to say "Nazi"? Mm.
And why would he be helping ISIL? He wants to be Chancellor.
Figures if he makes Merkel look bad [SCOFFS.]
You don't need us for this.
You've got the resources of the entire Federal government.
I do, and they all have names and fingerprints.
- Germany's an ally.
- Well, tell the Germans to deal with it.
Of course.
Then they would know that you've been spying on them.
I'm glad to see we can still finish each other's sentences.
Discretion's paramount.
You look great.
The job suits you.
Harris.
NADINE: If I do this you owe me.
What'd he want? Just wanted to make sure we knew the president - appreciated our work.
- That's it? - Could have called.
- Eh, what can I say? He likes me.
[TENSE MUSIC.]
[WIND HOWLING.]
[SIGHS.]
[MEAT CLATTERS.]
[PHONE RINGING.]
[PHONE CONTINUES TO RING.]
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
I wondered if you'd find me.
BOB LEE: I told you if you ever touched my family I would never stop looking.
BAMA: Don't suppose I can talk you out of this.
BOB LEE: No.
You can't.
[WIND HOWLING.]
[EDDIE VEDDER'S "LONG NIGHT".]
Have no fear For when I'm alone I'll be better off Than I was before I've got this life I'll be around to grow Who I was before I cannot recall Long nights Allow me to feel I'm falling I am falling The lights go out Let me feel I'm falling I am falling safely To the ground [VOCALIZING.]
