The Terror (2018) s02e04 Episode Script
The Weak Are Meat
1 You're joining the Army? I'm a translator.
I won't see any combat.
Asako-san! Henry-san, he's here! I brought you some warm water to soak your hands and feet.
[WATER SPLASHES, BOWL CLANGS.]
She's just trying to help! [WIND HOWLING.]
I never used to believe in that old-country stuff.
Yurei be anywhere you go.
It follow you.
[WOMAN HUMMING.]
[CHESTER.]
: "Dear Luz, It's 3:00 a.
m.
here in Guadalcanal, and I'm wide awake.
You'll be glad to hear I'm far from the action so far that Colonel Stallings hasn't even told the Marine officers about us yet.
Something about keeping morale up.
My bunkmate is Arthur Ogawa, and we spend all day in our tent translating documents and fighting off malaria but for the life of me, I don't know why I can't fall asleep.
[WIND GUSTING.]
Six nights in a row, every time I drift off, I feel like the enemy is closing in on me.
That's when I think of you.
I'm not saying it's better back at camp, but at least I imagine it's calmer.
After Yoshida-san and Furuya-san, it better be.
I bought me a new camera in Australia, so expect some pictures soon.
" [CRICKETS CHIRPING.]
Hey! [FLASHBULB POPS.]

[PANS CLATTERING.]

The Terror: Infamy 2x04 The Weak Are Meat [LUZ.]
: "Dear Chester, I really ought to be writing two letters.
Some days I'm so proud of how smart and brave you are to have gotten a job that thousands of others didn't, and other days, I think I should have never let you leave.
I offered to come here for you, and then you're the one to go? Then I stop myself.
Every time I blame you for being selfish, I blame myself for blaming you and so it goes, until we go home whenever, wherever that is.
" Thank you.
"Did I ever tell you when I was little I used to sneak out of my house and look in the neighbor's window? I'd see them sitting at the table.
They were a big family, not like mine, and I remember, they always looked like what I thought a family should look like.
Together.
That's me these days.
Watching a Japanese family of 9,000 through their window.
I'm not laying this at your feet.
Honestly.
In fact, you're my best hope.
Someday, it'll be us, and our baby, on our little acre, and we'll be on the inside of that window.
" [INSECTS BUZZ.]
See anything? Nothing.
You? Still nothing on Admiral Takahashi.
But they'd never mention him by name, right? Did you sleep at all? I thought you were supposed to be good.
I wasn't going for art.
I I thought I saw something out there.
Like the enemy? Man, a camera flash is a sure way to get us sent home in a pine box.
No, it's not that.
It's Ogawa you ever hear of a thing called a yurei? Yeah, well, just what I read from those old Kaidan stories.
Why? Are you ghost-hunting now? Just from what you've read in those stories, what's a yurei usually after? Depends on its onnen.
It's like a crazed hunger for something.
Maybe somebody wronged it in its lifetime.
Whatever it is, it spends the rest of eternity trying to satisfy its onnen.
Can a yurei control other people? You know it's not real, right? Tell that to the Japanese soldiers.
It seems like every other letter is about a spirit of some kind.
[WIND GUSTING.]
I thought I weighed that down.
Ogawa you ever seen this before? No wonder the wind's been whistling through.
Something tore it open.
Like a crocodile? Or are you still on about the yurei? [SINGING QUIETLY.]
[HUMMING GENTLY.]
Yeah, it's moving.
I can feel it.
Yeah.
I'm a bit sad.
The baby's father? He's far away.
Oh.
Baby.
Happy.
I hope so.
Uh, I should get going.
[TOOLS CLANK.]
What's that? [RATTLING.]
[RATTLING.]
Arigato.
Arigato.
[TOY RATTLING.]
[PRIVATE.]
: Colonel Stallings is asking for you up at the main camp.
[WHITTLING.]
[FLAMES WHOOSH.]
[SOLDIERS COUGH AND GAG.]
[COUGHING.]
Colonel? Sergeant Ogawa.
Sergeant Nakayama.
I thought it might be time for you to see where your documents are coming from.
[GROANS OF DISGUST.]
[CHESTER.]
: What happened? Men die all day long out here.
There's so much that can kill you.
Malaria, cholera, all kinds of sand flies.
[FLIES BUZZING.]
How about a bullet to the head? Did the sand flies do that? You got any idea what your people do to our guys? My people are your people.
Easy, Matthis.
Colonel Stallings thinks these Orientals might be able help us find Sergeant Crittenden.
Lieutenant Oury's men have been in a pretty nasty skirmish with one of Admiral Takahashi's units by the Matanikau River.
I didn't realize how nasty until I saw this.
I figured it was time we worked hand-in-hand for a change.
How long's the battle been going? On and off for months, but it didn't get nasty till six days ago.
That's when we lost Sergeant Crittenden.
He went missing on a recon.
We took back a dozen of theirs, but still no sign.
Your Colonel says maybe there's something in the pile that can help track him down.
Do you know if Crittenden's alive? We don't.
Sometimes the Japs execute prisoners.
Sometimes they keep them alive and do a lot worse.
You know, if your men weren't so busy making letter-openers out of shin bones, they might have realized that a live POW would stand a better chance of telling us where your sergeant is.
Maybe even get us to Takahashi.
Is this boy supposed to be a translator or an officer? Work with what you got, Nakayama.
[FLIES BUZZING.]
[WATER POURING.]
[GRUNTS WITH EFFORT.]
Not everything's written on paper.
It's Wabun code.
[GRUNTS WITH EFFORT.]
Told ya, Oury.
One of my Japanese boys is worth ten of yours.
Better get back in there and see what else you missed.
You heard the Colonel.
Get in there! Chop-chop! [SOLDIERS GRUMBLING.]
[CHESTER.]
: "So you asked what it's like here.
It'd be a tropical paradise if nature could have its way, but apparently, it can't.
It's nice to hear everything's okay over there, that nothing crazy's happened.
I was hoping not.
I'm including a little something for you.
Maybe it'll make up for my dad being such a pain in the rear.
He's kind of stubborn, but then again, so are you.
Don't try to do too much.
I can't wait to see our baby.
I hope he gets your looks.
" What does he say? He's good.
A lot of names are cut out.
He sent this.
So handsome.
Like Gary Cooper.
Oto-san.
I suppose there is a part of you that still thinks of him as a little boy.
He is his own man now.
The baby? [BREATHING DEEPLY.]
Don't be scared.
Did Chester tell you about my mom? You need to think good thoughts.
How was it when you gave birth to Chester? Oh I don't remember.
It was so long ago.
[OPENING DOOR.]
Hello? This section's off limits.
Hey, you.
Do you understand English? [GASPING.]
[JOINTS CRACKING.]
[PANTING IN FEAR.]
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC.]
[BREATHING STIFFLY, GRUNTING IN PAIN.]
Nessler! Nessler, where you been? You missed your last shift! What the hell do you think you're doing? Nessler, get down from there right now! Nessler, get your ass down here right now! [MUSIC SURGING WITH DANGER.]
[GASPS OF HORROR.]
[BODY THUDS HEAVILY.]
[WHISPERS.]
Jesus [GASPS AND SOBS FROM CROWD.]
[SNIFFS.]
Which one of you Japs got him drunk? [MUSIC SURGING OMINOUSLY.]
[BELONGINGS CLATTER.]
[TEARING FABRIC.]
[SLAPPING HIM AWAY.]
Now do you believe me? Go talk some sense into him.
He likes you.
Miss Yoshida, you want to step outside? Unless you want tell us where the contraband saké is.
You're looking for a scapegoat.
Your man killed himself.
Sir Major, um this is my family's barracks.
I'm aware.
[CLATTERING.]
I tell you what, point out your bed, and I'll search it myself.
[YAMATO-SAN.]
: This for Obon.
What kind of bone? Obon.
Our custom to honor ancestor.
Sweep it.
All that spook shit.
That's not for Obon.
It's mine.
Made from camp property.
[FLOORBOARDS CLATTER.]
Holy Moses.
You got an entire still down here? Just for us.
No one else.
Bullshit.
There's explicit rules laid down by every block manager.
You wouldn't be hiding it if you didn't think it was wrong.
Let's go.
Hey, hold on, you got the wrong guy.
All the old man does is drink the shit.
I made the saké.
Walt Walt? As in Yoshida? Please tell me you didn't know about this.
She didn't.
Girls aren't allowed to touch the stuff anyway.
Look, I don't have time to adjudicate.
Take Yoshida to the stockade.
One's just as good as another.
Chester's father, Henry-san.
He hates me.
No matter what I do, he hates me.
Henry-san doesn't remember? You.
I don't remember him [SHORT GASP.]
[WHISPERS.]
Two Two baby.
Twins? Twins? What's wrong? Nothing at all.
It's wonderful.
Is it too much of a burden? We'll need two of everything, but they can sleep with me.
Don't worry.
We'll manage.
I need to write Chester.
I don't know what he'll say, but he's got no choice in it No! Not until babies born.
[SPRINKLING.]
What are you doing? Blessing our home.
Against what? Aren't twins supposed to be bad luck? That's what my dad used to say.
He said twins bring death and misfortune.
That's enough.
Be quiet.
There's no curse on my twins.
Do you understand? You can believe what you want, but no one is to treat my children like they're goddamned cursed.
[CHESTER.]
: "Dear Luz, another three days, still no sleep.
I've been stuck at my desk, searching for a sergeant from our company.
I think I might be going a little crazy.
" [PATTERING SOFTLY.]
[WIND GUSTING.]
Nakayama [ARTHUR'S VOICE.]
: Not so rough.
Take it easy.
You won't be able to translate anything if you manhandle it.
"I left my unit in a ravine near a cave natives call "Giant's Door".
They said the devil's camp was a kilometer due east.
I waited till nightfall to make my way there.
There were two devils in the tent.
They were too absorbed in their work to notice my arrival" [BLADE SLICING.]
[GASPING BREATHLESSLY.]
[GASPS AWAKE.]
"Giant's Door".
Ogawa.
I think I know what took Sergeant Crittenden and I think I know where he is.
[DOOR LATCH OPENS.]
[UNFOLDING PAPER.]
[READING IN JAPANESE.]
Wait.
Enrique is a good name.
I like it.
[SOLDIERS MURMURING.]
Sergeant Crittenden, it's okay, you're back with us.
[CRITTENDEN MUTTERING.]
We're gonna take care of you.
Can you tell us anything about your captors? Sergeant Crittenden [MUTTERING.]
Where did they find him? Where you said.
Giant's Door.
[CRITTENDEN MUTTERING.]
[REPEATING PHRASE.]
That's how they found him.
He was in a cave just talking gibberish.
He's talking in Japanese.
[CRITTENDEN MUTTERING.]
"You are a devil".
[CRITTENDEN MUTTERING.]
"A white devil".
Get him out of here.
- I don't want that Jap anywhere near him! - Hey.
Hey! Take your hands off.
Come here.
[RAGING.]
Hold him! Chester, easy.
[SPEAKING IN JAPANESE.]
What's he saying? "I will cut out your tongue".
[CRITTENDEN SPEAKING IN JAPANESE.]
"I will gouge out your eyes".
Chester, he doesn't know what he's saying! He's just spitting back what his captors said to him! [CRITTENDEN SPEAKING IN JAPANESE.]
[REPEATING PHRASE.]
[REPEATING.]
"The weak are meat.
The strong eat.
" [CRITTENDEN REPEATING PHRASE.]
[CRIES OUT IN PAIN.]

Okay, one step.
Okay.

: Is he okay? Is my baby okay? Is my boy okay? Tell me what [SCREAMS IN PAIN.]
What's happened to my baby? [ROARS ANGRILY.]

- I can't I want to see my baby.
No, I can't Just one more big push.

What's happening? Why are my babies not crying? What's happening? Let me see my baby.
Let me What happened to my babies? I'm sorry.

[SOBBING SILENTLY.]
[LUZ.]
: "Things are looking up here.
I'm due to give birth any day now, and I won over your dad.
I didn't think it was possible, but I did.
I told him we'd name one of the babies after him.
Yes.
Babies! We're having twins, Chester! Hikaru and Enrique.
Turns out, your father likes the name "Enrique".
Who knew? I can't wait for you to come home.
Me and the babies will be waiting for you.
In the meantime, send some more photos.
Your mom will appreciate it, and so will I.
Miss you.
A lot.
Love, Luz.

I mean, how's a fella supposed to tell? [SOLDIERS GUFFAW.]
[CRITTENDEN MUTTERS IN JAPANESE.]
Who let Crittenden out? He shouldn't be out.
[SOLDIERS SHOUT.]
Get him! Get him down! [CHESTER GRUNTS IN PAIN.]
Sarge, get in here! This is for you! [GROANING IN PAIN.]
[FIRE ROARING.]
[SOLDIERS SCREAMING.]
Get him.
Get him! - Get the medic! - Yes, sir! We're gonna need water over here! Too late, they're all dead.
Move, boys! Hustle! [CHESTER CRIES OUT.]
Sarge! Sarge! Someone get Crittenden a media.
- I got you now.

Are you hurt? Are you hurt? How is that possible? Are you hurt? No I'm fine.
Takahashi? [HUM OF CROWD.]
[HENRY SPEAKING IN JAPANESE.]

Someone needs to find Yuko.
We thought you were sleeping.
[LUZ.]

Who is Yuko? My midwife.
I told you.
She lives past the northeast guard tower.
Nobody lives in that part of camp.
Yes, they do.
Block 36, barrack 4.

Chester - [IN LOUD VOICE.]
Why're you saying it?! - [LAUGHING.]
I won't see any combat.
