[bunniefuu]

(man sniffs)

(banging on the door)

(man coughs)

[Man] What the f*ck is going on?

Oh sh*t.

- sh*t.

- Go, go, go.

[Man] Maddy, wake up.

Maddy, Maddy, it's the cops.

You gotta get the f*ck out of here.

sh*t, Maddy, wake up.

Maddy, wake up.

Maddy!

(door smashes open)

- Let me see your hands!

- Wake up, Maddy, wake up!

- Get away from her!

- She's not waking up!

- Hey, what's her name?

- She's not waking up, man.

[Man] No, no, I didn't

give her anything.

[Cop] Hey guy, what's her name?

- Maddy.

- Maddy, can you hear me?

[Man] Get your hands

off me. Maddy, wake up!

[Cop] Maddy, if you can

hear me, take a breath for me.

[Man] Get away. No, I

didn't give her anything.

[Cop] Don't give me that, bro.

(crosstalk)

[Man] Maddy, wake up. Wake the f*ck up!

[Cop] Come on. Big

breath, Maddy, big breath-

- [News Reporter] This

is the south La Copa home

where 17 year old Madeline

Deegan was found dead

a few weeks ago.

It's known by some as a frequent hangout

for illicit drug use and drinking.

It was the focus of a raid

the morning Deegan's body was discovered

leading to the arrest of six

adults and three juveniles.

Because of the mix of

drugs in Deegan system,

charges were discussed

but were not pursued by law enforcement.

Her death has been ruled accidental

and no further investigation

will take place.

Her father, Tacomish Tribal

Police Sergeant, Elan Deegan,

and her mother...

(tense music)

(dog barking in the distance)

(vegetables crunching)

(deep quick inhale)

(tense music)

Maddy!

(door squeaks)

Bug.

(deep breathing)

(deep panting)

My daughter was r*ped and k*lled.

I know who did it.

I thought I needed your help.

I was wrong.

(tin can rattling)

Yeah, they don't stick around long.

These kids find an empty spot to party.

The cops get called after a couple nights

and they move on to the next.

Trying to find someone

who even knows this kid

is hard enough.

Good news is, I think this will help you

when we do find him.

You've got a tracking app and everything.

Yeah, I know, it's a fossil,

but it's undetectable if anyone finds it.

All you gotta do is log

into your email and voila.

Keep the "do not disturb" on.

You don't wanna answer this one?

Okay.

I also got a long life

battery in there, just in case.

Just make sure to keep it charged.

Hey, Deegan.

You know we're gonna find

this little f*ck, right?

Are you smoking now?

You smell like it.

I gotta go.

Vacuum cleaners?

Been a little slow here lately.

You're selling vacuum cleaners now?

What of it? You want one?

Ow.

(country rock music

playing in the background)

[Whit] You're getting good.

You did exactly what you

told me, no more than 10 bucks.

I said a few bucks.

You know we could quadruple

the amount of money we make.

Let's not get greedy, babe.

I gotta cash these, he's got his limits.

Well, can I meet this mystery man then?

I got my limits too.

You got a real problem

trusting me, don't you?

Don't act like this is

all for me, all right?

Fine. Can we just not

do it 50 feet from work?

This is stupid.

These people are f*cking ret*rds.

They don't know what's going on here.

Let's go to your place then.

That's not what I meant.

This stuff really stresses you out, huh?

No, it's not that.

I just, um...

The kid I think, think I can find him.

How?

- Just... Nevermind, okay.

- Yeah.

Listen, if you like, we

could come back to my place.

We could talk about it.

We go to your place too.

Oh, I have this rule, I

don't take work home with me.

Oh,

a rule.

(heaving breathing)

Knocks me off of my feet

every time I see him

Handsome

Handsome man

I don't even know his name

I don't know where he lives

(moaning and groaning)

But he's still to blame

For all the misery he gives

Because he's handsome

Oh, so handsome

(glass shattering)

Gentle and sweet

Knocks me off of my feet

every time I see him

Handsome

(moaning and groaning)

Handsome man

Handsome man

(dog barking)

Who can he be

Ooh, he's just right

(moaning and groaning)

Just right for me

'Cause he's handsome

Oh, so handsome

(heavy breathing)

- Daddy.

- I'll get her.

Okay, I got it.

[Looney Tunes Character]

Pull a knife on me, would ya?

Why you...

[Levi] So that's the plan, huh?

Give the tracker to some criminal.

He's not what you think,

okay? He grew up here.

He knows a lot of people.

I'm gonna use that.

[Levi] So, hmm, okay,

so you get close to him

and he helps track the kid.

Basically, what you're telling me is,

you're playing this guy?

I mean, if that's what it

is, just f*cking say so.

I'm gonna take any

opportunity I can, all right?

I was gonna ask him to do it last night,

but yeah, it wasn't the right time.

[Levi] Just watch your back.

Not everyone is looking

out for your best interest.

Hang on, hang on, what is this?

Just got our first tracker location email.

Has the phone's out in Eagle's Nest?

You holding out on me?

Who'd you get the phone to?

[Andi] sh*t. sh*t.

[TV Actor] Anyway,

it's just a rough sketch.

Pretty small mouth, eh?

Oh, well.

[TV Actor] Give her that Crawford smear.

This will give her the heat between here.

We are on the wrong track.

She still looks surprised.

(cellphone vibrating)

[TV Actress] Mr. Smith is not in.

[Andi] How'd you get my number?

I got word you had a car break in.

[Andi] Oh yeah? What about it?

You should have called me first.

[Andi] Elan, how do you even

know about it? I didn't...

Look, it's fine. It's probably

just some stupid kids.

No reason to call, actually,

No? That doesn't sound like you.

[Andi] Elan,

I'm kind of in the middle

of dinner right now,

so I gotta go, okay?

All right, here, here's the thing.

Tribal PD did get a call last night.

A good Samaritan who

witnessed the break in,

called it in with a description.

We got an ID on them.

Some woman who's been around your casino

and her junkie boyfriend.

They've been arrested a couple times

at an abandoned place

a couple of miles out.

Had it's fair share of

bust over the last year,

you know, druggie squatters and whatnot.

We keep breaking them up, but

they just keep coming back.

Elan, I appreciate what you're doing,

but I can take care of it.

[Elan] You know, that's

not how this works, right?

You are such a...

Cop.

Listen, I, I'm already here, all right?

I know this isn't my area,

but I had a couple of minutes to spare.

Yeah, of course, you're already there.

All I'm trying to do

is help you get your stuff back.

And...

It's good to hear your

voice again, by the way.

[Andi] Well, I gotta go.

So let me know if you find something.

(rain pattering)

(thunder rumbling)

(cellphone ringing)

Deegan here.

I'm coming out.

What'd you find?

What's with the...

Just tell me what you found.

This is how you greet

me? It's been 11 months.

Recognize it's chicken

scratch on the pages.

[Andi] Is that it?

Assuming they stole the phone,

it's already been sold to trade it up.

(cellphone vibrating)

Who's that?

No one.

Wait, what is this?

Hey, just don't worry about it.

I know you've been keeping

tabs on me, I'm not stupid.

- Define keeping tabs.

- With Levi.

He's almost as bad liar as he are.

So you are working with him?

That's about the stupidest

idea you've ever had. Levi.

You know, you and I,

we don't exist anymore.

So what I do and who I work

with is none of your business.

(thunder clapping)

Look, please stay out of it.

I know you're just doing

your job or whatever,

but I don't want you to

go out of your way for me.

Maddy wasn't my blood,

but I was her father.

She took my name and I-

I know.

I know.

(thunder clapping)

You left everything, me, our home.

I don't even recognize you anymore.

I don't need your help.

(rain pattering)

(car door slams)

(front door slams)

(tense music)

The person who stole my

bag with the tracker,

she's been prowling

the casino for a while.

- Yeah, what about her?

- I can't be sure,

[Andi] But I think I've

seen her daughter there too.

Somehow she knew Maddy.

How'd you find all this

out, huh? Some woman stole it.

And how the hell would

you know they're related.

[Andi] I don't sleep much, Levi.

Well, as your service provider,

I strongly recommend that you

visit that tracker location.

You said this kid's a dealer.

Well, it might be a connection there

if your thief is a dope head.

I looked it up.

The partial number leads to

an HD Maritime Solutions,

whatever that is.

No listing for that either.

You listening to me?

Yeah, I'm here.

Look, Deegan, I know how you

get, all right? Understandably.

Now this is an emotional

time right now, I get that.

But I, I don't want you

getting all distracted

and, and unfocused, okay?

This is, it's, it's really critical

that you follow these leads.

[Andi] Shut up and gimme a second.

[Levi] Oh, come on, what's the holdup?

She may be the last person

to see my daughter alive.

[Levi] And you don't

know that, all right?

Okay, look, I'm not

gonna go to another house

it turns out to be some

vacated druggie hangout.

[Levi] Whatever, fine. You

do what you want, all right?

But you're running the show around here

and I'm just here for my enjoyment?

You said HD Maritime?

[Levi] Maritime Solutions, yeah. Why?

Deegan?

Can you send me that

address? I know that name.

(tense music)

(papers rustling)

(tense music continues)

Oh sh*t.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

Oh God. Okay.

sh*t!

Oh God.

Hey!

Please. Oh God.

(gasping)

b*tch, you're on private property.

(groaning and gasping)

(grunting)

(coughing and gasping)

(door creaking)

[Harland] What the f*ck?

God damn tornado's been in here.

Who's is all this?

[Man 2] What do you think?

[Harland] That's ruined.

Add that to the list.

Just bulldoze this to the ground.

[Man 2] What's that?

I think I may have found the source.

Is she dead?

You wanna check? Be my guest.

[Vagrant] Get him off of me.

This is my house, m*therf*cker!

[Harland] Really?

Who do you send your

mortgage payments too?

- We have rights.

- You've been misinformed.

- I found it.

- See this? Look familiar?

[Harland] My son had it.

And to my surprise, a picture

of you on my property.

Another picture of you.

Terrible photo there.

And your girlfriend, hmm?

You know if I had to guess

I'd say you probably lifted it

then traded up for that

little toxic c*ck

your girl in there took.

[Vagrant] No, I didn't steal anything.

Yeah, of course you didn't.

You and your corpse bride

in there are here illegally.

This is my house, not yours.

So I'm not laying a finger

on that carcass in there.

But you are gonna drag

her a*s out right now

before she starts decomposing,

leaking fluids everywhere.

f*cking hear me, boy?

[Vagrant] You can't do this

man. f*cking sue your a*s.

I'll be in here and your sh*t

will be out on the street.

You and your little spick buddy.

(groaning and grunting)

(tense music)

Excuse me, do you know a Harland Dunn?

You just call me when you lonely

(Buster's Place by Keith Stone playing)

(patrons chattering in the background)

Harland, right?

I know you?

Is that your boat out there?

Could be. Why?

I think you should tell me

how you put this whole

thing together exactly

'cause it still seems

just a little bit odd.

The phone has a tracking app.

Call the cops?

Is that what you prefer?

Hell no. I'm just curious.

I wanted to take care of it, you know?

Why get him involved.

Look a little dazed.

I've never been really good on boats.

Not even moving.

Remind me never to ask you to

help me dump a body at sea.

Her you go.

[Andi] Did you find this

at the abandoned house?

Yeah. Excuse me for one second.

(banging on the door)

Racking on a basic.

(girl singing)

It's my birthday baby,

time to bring a cake in

[Robby] Yo, what the

f*ck? What you doing?

What if I told you no one

comes down here but you?

Now get your chill baby outta here.

I don't wanna see her again.

I see the concentration camp

still on f*cking lockdown.

I see-

- Put your shirt on, all

right? We got company.

[Andi] So what do you do exactly?

Maritime supply. You

know, maintenance, repair.

What do you do?

I, I work at a casino.

Oh, so you got kids.

[Andi] What about you?

So you live here alone?

Robby.

He stays here from time to time.

My boys had run-ins with the wrong people.

So I'm, you know, trying to

extricate him the best I can.

Sometimes the apple doesn't

fall apart from the tree

and sometimes it doesn't fall at all.

I see.

All right.

Hey, I'm sorry about the trouble

my impromptu tenants caused ya.

Get that for ya.

Constellation prize.

Better than cardboard.

Sure we haven't seen each other before?

I think I just have one of those faces.

Thanks again.

Sure.

(tense music)

- Levi-

- Before you say anything.

[Levi] Why is Elan calling me

asking if we're working together?

How the hell does he know?

Just hold on a second.

Listen to me.

[Levi] When you said you,

you did your own homework,

I thought you meant on your own.

None of that matters.

I know where he is.

I found out where the kid is.

That, that's great.

[Levi] But if, if I know your ex,

it's just going,

None of this matters.

It's a stupid power trip.

[Levi] Wait a second,

wait. You knew about this.

You knew he was on this whole

scheme and you didn't tell me.

We are so close.

We have been working on

this that for months.

[Levi] That's it. It's over.

This is over. I, I'm done, okay?

I, yeah, I think you should

seriously consider it too.

Levi, li-

Levi!

[Harland] Hey.

What the f*ck? Get the f*ck-

- Perfect. You stealing again then, huh?

Get the f*ck off of me, dude.

That woman's sh*t was

stolen from her car.

And why am I finding her phone

with dope head glamour

photos in your room, huh?

Man, eat a d*ck, b*tch.

I didn't steal sh*t.

(groaning)

I met your funky-a*s

customers at the house.

Tell me, what's the going

rate for a two bed one bath

on the east side?

You're a f*cking property agent now?

You're about an inch for

being homeless yourself, man.

Because there's nothing I can do for you

when you're out from underneath my roof.

Look, it's my boy, Spoons, okay?

He bartered with a couple dope fiends

and, and, and I paid him some cash for it.

That's it.

Yeah, sure it is.

No, that's the f*cking truth, man.

Yeah, and I also know

that you two dumb asses

are running a homeless

shelter at my property.

Man, you got me here

22 hours a f*cking day.

When do I have time to

go to my old crib, man?

Don't ice me like I'm a f*cking punk.

You're the f*cking hypocrite.

And you are outta here tonight.

You're going to my place.

Yo. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

You're kidding me, right?

I can't trust you, Robby.

This is how it's gonna be.

- No luck finding your bag?

- No.

If I told you the latest ticket cow,

would that make you feel better?

Why are you doing this... stealing?

'Cause I need it.

Gracie needs it

Because you could get a

different job when they paid more?

Right. Okay.

What about you then?

- You know why.

- I'm not sure I do exactly.

Before you said it was

about scraping enough cash

to put this kid in jail, right?

It doesn't really seem

that way to me anymore.

I think you enjoy it.

I think you enjoy breaking the rules.

That's the kind of person that you are.

My options are limited.

What are you getting at, exactly?

I need your help.

I want this kid to feel what Maddy did.

I want him to know that he can't get away

with something like that.

So what you're asking

me to what, what...

You're asking me to k*ll this kid?

He's not a kid, technically, okay?

I can't do it by myself.

Sell this f*ck off to you.

Look, Andi, I'm, I'm not a

hit man. I'm not a hit man.

I realize that, but listen to me.

We can make it look like a break-in.

I have this whole thing figured

out, I know how to find him.

Andi, are you outta your f*cking mind?

You just got mental.

I thought you said he

f*cking deserved this.

I thought you said if you ever met him,

you'd punch a hole in him and

wear him like a sock puppet.

That's what you said to me.

That kid is a thug.

He's probably running around

with a bunch of like murderers

and rapists and sh*t.

You know, you don't know

what he's capable of.

Where are your f*cking ba*ls, Whit?

All right. All right.

We're not talking about this here, okay?

You want, you wanna f*ck

first and then we'll chat?

Because we can do that.

[Film Actor 1] Last thing they told me

was that they thought you

were missing on her own.

[Film Actor 2] Is that what you think?

[Film Actor 1] To tell you the truth,

I don't think about it too much.

I try not to.

Wendy's gone and that's

the way it's gonna stay.

[Film Actor 2] Well,

do you mind if I ask you,

was she acting strangely at

all before she went missing?

[Film Actor 1] I mean,

there is something...

Sorry, I know you.

I'm bad with names, but Nadine, is it?

Natalie?

That's not my name.

Peter Shepherd. Shepherd Cadillac.

Your husband's Frank.

We met a while back.

Can you leave me alone, please?

No, no, I'm sorry.

Look, I know it a few years

ago, but how's Frank doing?

It was her, right?

Well, that one is 1,295,

but this weekend we're

doing a special for $1,100.

Yeah. Yeah, dual suction motor

and yeah, I, I gotta call

you back in a minute, okay?

I found him. The cell phone worked.

Oh yeah. Yeah, that, that's great.

But I'm in the middle of

trying to keep the lights on.

Levi, we need to move

on this because he can-

- Ah, did you not hear me before?

I have heard what you said.

- He might leave tomorrow.

- I can't help you.

Levi, f*cking listen to me!

What exactly are you going to do?

Call the cops? Beat him up?

The police won't pursue it.

You're chasing your tail.

So you've just been taking my money

for the last six months then, huh?

Oh, you, you want your money back? Fine.

Worth not having this on my conscience.

I don't want the money back.

I need your help one last time.

I've seen it with my own

eyes. They're criminals.

I need a recording,

one we can plant.

A bug?

If I can get proof and show someone,

you and I can put him away.

Look, I'd give it to you,

but you can't set it up yourself.

I swear to God, if

you help me with this,

you will never see me ever again.

(tense music)

- Is that the boat?

- Yeah.

- What's going on?

- Keep going.

What are you doing?

Like walking through a f*cking drug deal?

Let's get the f*ck outta here.

Let's go.

(boat engine revving)

We need to go.

[Andi] Hey, calm down.

Have a good life, Deegan.

We don't know who that was.

It could have been anybody.

Yeah, I'm not sticking

around to f*cking find out.

Take your money.

Levi, please

(car engine starting)

Let it go.

Get out of my f*cking truck!

(tense music continues)

Hey.

[Cheryl] No chicks. Move the f*ck along.

I got 50 bucks.

A hundred?

I don't eat no p*ssy,

b*tch. Just an FYI.

I just need some company.

Meet me in room 118.

Room's 30 bucks.

Okay.

(tense music)

(muffled talking)

(police siren wailing in the distance)

(knocking at the door)

Come in.

What are those?

Amy's right here to help them.

That's a pretty necklace.

Where'd you get it?

[Cheryl] Don't remember.

- You got a name?

- It's Andi. What's yours?

- You got a preference, Andi?

- No.

You one of those?

- I just wanna talk.

- Right?

All right, f*cking talk then.

Who's the guy in the other room?

He's just a friend.

He don't like me talking

about him, though.

- So do you have a family?

- Maybe.

Do you have a dad or a mom?

I need to know if you know somebody.

His name is Robby.

Robby?

Why you wanna know about him?

(banging on the door)

[Kay] Yo, you still here. I

told you to go the f*ck home.

What? Are you on your

own program now, huh?

Why the f*ck I always feel

I gotta babysit you, b*tch?

I told you to take a hike!

So grab all your pink,

furry sh*t and bounce!

Is this your f*cking mom's or something?

- No.

- What the f*ck is up?

I paid, okay? We're good.

Stay put.

So what's up with you?

Is this your first time?

You kind of dope?

I don't know though. Something

ain't clicking, right?

Like bumping uglies is what's

on your mind right now.

What the f*ck is you doing here?

She just wanted to chat.

Chat? That's it?

Want a little chitty-chat?

Is you a cop or something?

- No.

- Is she a cop?

I'm not a cop.

You smell like one

except for them tatts.

You sure in as hell look like one?

I look like a lot of people.

Kay, come on.

(gasping)

Kay.

(coughing)

See, this sh*t is fake.

That's fake as the re-

(screaming)

(tense music)

(door slams)

(water running)

(gasping)

To hell with this.

- Yeah?

- You awake?

- I wanna see you.

- Right now?

Is that okay?

Hey.

Why do you go to the

movies all the time alone?

Why do you ask?

It's just strange.

You were right.

I don't know what I was thinking.

Especially at the casino

Andi, I'm quitting.

What?

Yeah, think it's, I

think it's run its course.

Wait a minute, I think...

What do you think about Arizona?

- I don't know, it's hot.

- Well, not always.

More than most places.

Why are you asking me about Arizona?

Would you ever want to go there?

Like to visit? No.

To live?

What are you saying?

Well, Renee's moving to Phoenix

and Gracie's going with her.

And if I want to see her, again,

then I'm gonna have to go with her.

When?

Soon.

Why are you asking me?

It's a lot easier if you come with me.

I don't know.

Think about it, okay?

And think about this.

In 20 or 30 years when

California falls into the ocean,

Arizona property value's gonna skyrocket.

(somber music)

[Film Actor 3] You'll

get a second chance

with Father Thomas.

Well, it's, it's

complicated. Him and witches.

You may have heard something

about his relationship

with Hester.

Tabitha, listen to me.

[Tabitha] Sorry. Yeah, I'm listening.

I have to...

- What I miss?

- Ssh.

Did Melanie drop you off?

No, it was just some guy that I know.

What boy?

Mom, I'm trying to watch the movie.

(emotional music)

I'm sorry, bug.

God damn thing.

Hey, when are we gonna get

one of them whatchamacallits?

You know, it's a lot of

names for a 72 hour period,

especially for such a small space.

[Cop 2] Well, it's easy

when you don't spend the whole night.

[Cop 3] How many in number 118?

Eleven. Three on Monday.

Nothing?

The camera's garbage.

- They're the worst.

- What? I like-

- Are we doing this?

You saying what I think you're saying?

Yeah. If the offer still stands.

- Yeah. Yeah.

- Okay.

We, we should celebrate a couple shots.

No, another time.

She's not in my arms

Harland, someone's here to see you.

Thanks.

- Swiss army knife.

- With your name on it.

Yeah, I toss them out all the time.

Fishermen like to cut

line. Pop beers with them.

And now a weapon of choice.

You and I know you got a sheet.

Why don't just tell me

who you've been handing

these out to recently.

And you can be on your merry way.

Hell if I know, it's

been a couple months.

You just said you hand

them out all the time.

You know what I mean?

Tossing the people on the water.

- New clients

- And their names.

Look, friend, I don't

keep a roll of decks.

I wouldn't call myself

a savvy businessman.

But if you're looking to

dig into every single person

in my network,

you're gonna upset a

lot of perfectly legit

working class guys

who I'll have to deal with later.

And may I say thank you for

coming here of all places.

You'd rather do this at your residence?

The blood came off a young hood.

So if we could prevent some

kind of provocation by arrival

or whatever this is,

it's gonna save me a lot of work later.

Look, I'm not here to tie you to anything,

but you get no sympathy from

me for the inconvenience.

I just want peace and

f*cking quiet on the res.

I'm sure you want that too.

[Levi] Don't make me

[Motivator] With selling

yourself and your business.

Why you selling, most important?

Look at like learning a new language.

It's total emotional.

It's not just part of a 9 to 5 job.

It's a whole different approach

to people, relationships,

and your lifestyle.

sh*t man, I, look, look,

if this is about the other

night, I, I already fired her.

(g*n fires)

[Motivator] Assertive

what others have to offer.

Five, six, seven, eight, nine,

10, 11, 12.

I'm really close to home.

Eleven.

Hello?

[Harland] Andi, it's Harland.

Bad time?

How'd you get my number?

[Harland] Terrible control

of information at the casino,

I must say.

Sorry, I know this is

strange or I don't know,

maybe you're used to it,

but I wanted to call and

see how you're doing.

I'm good.

[Harland] I was afraid I

wasn't gonna get a chance

to ever see you again.

Listen, I, I found the

adapter for your phone.

I would've just delivered it in person,

but it'd probably be impolite

to just stop by your place unannounced.

Thought instead, we

could meet up somewhere.

Yeah, I already have an

adapter. That's not mine.

[Harland] No, no, it's,

it's definitely yours.

Why don't I meet you and you can grab it.

Yeah, now's not a really good time.

[Harland] Andi, I don't wanna lose it.

I'm really afraid I might lose it.

Come on, only take a sec.

[Andi] I know you

don't wanna hear from me,

but if you're at your office or home,

you need to leave right now.

(tense music)

f*ck, Levi, why aren't you picking up?

(tense music continues)

Levi!

(gasping)

Oh!

Andi!

(papers rustling)

Well,

you look like a reasonable person.

I can't figure for the life of me

why you want me in your life so badly.

My daughter was r*ped and

k*lled. I know who did it.

I thought I needed your help. I was wrong.

What, what made you think I

was like your final solution?

I don't know, I was just stupid.

You got that part right?

That woman, the junkie,

she was still alive.

What did you do with her?

You were there.

Hmm, St. Joseph's

not a monster.

Get up.

You rattled the hornet's nests, hmm?

The reason your friend down there

is wrapped in plastic and not you

is his admirable desire to

keep you out of harm's way.

[Radio Controller] Suspicious activity

reported at office lot 301 Olympic Avenue.

This is two Lima two,

I'm just up the road heading eastbound.

I can be there in a minute or two.

[Radio Controller] Two vehicles on site.

A blue late model 40 two

door and a gold 90 sedan.

Copy.

Because of you, I've, I've

been dragged into a matter

I don't care to be a part of.

And because I'm involved,

my partner is now involved.

And that's where the bigger problem lies.

Did you really think this little get up

is gonna fool anybody, hmm?

Just 'cause you cut your hair,

put some sh*t on your face.

I've never met you before.

Never?

That little charity shindig

at Cedarbrook, remember?

Been a while, hasn't it?

Hey, how's it going?

Honey, I want you to meet someone.

What are you gonna do to me?

This was about my son.

It's not about some

punk at a motel, was it?

Don't lie to me.

(tense music)

(muffled scream)

(knocking on window)

What are you doing here, sir?

I work here, seor,

waiting for someone inside.

- You work here?

- Yes. (speaking Spanish)

Let me see your license.

Think I left it inside the building.

You don't have it on you?

Keep your hands where I can see them, sir.

My id.

I don't care, I need to see your hands.

Did you hear me? Do it now.

(muffled scream)

I'm not gonna say it again!

Put your hands on the wheel!

Do it now!

Hello officer.

You work here?

Yeah, me and my colleague,

we were heading down to

the bar down the road.

Last I checked, this was

Levi Denk's place, where is he?

Yeah, he, he, lease it to me.

Do you wanna come inside?

It's all right.

(tense music)

Bleach, but more problems.

- You just moved in?

- Just last week.

I will show you the paperwork,

but everything is still at our old office.

- Okay.

- Who, who are you calling?

Your subletter, I've

known him for a few years.

(cellphone vibrating)

It is fine. You two have a good night.

Listen to me,

your car's gonna be down the road

a couple miles at the liquor

store if you want it back.

Now, you know that tonight

serve as a little learning

experience, right?

Because if I ever see your devious

c*ck sucking face again,

you understand, right? Good.

(tense music)

f*ck!

(coughing and gasping)

(water running)

(thunder rumbling)

Andi!

(door creaking)

(thunder rumbling)

(knocking at the door)

[Elan] Andi, you in there?

What the f*ck, man?

Who are you?

I'm Whit, Whitney Harrison.

I'm a friend of Andi's.

Andi, it's important that

I talk to her. Where is she?

Wish I knew, man.

[Elan] When did, you see her last?

Last night. Who, who are you exactly?

I'm her ex-husband.

Thought you were in Florida?

And an attorney and not a-

Cop?

Listen, I don't know what

the f*ck going on here,

but I'm pretty sure you just

came in here unlawfully.

And if I know Andi as

well as I think I do,

she'll have an issue with us, okay?

Exactly, how well do you know her?

Not sure I follow.

Natalie, how long have you two been-

- Natalie? Who, who's Natalie?

Get out.

(car engine starts)

Come on, get out.

Are you are just gonna

leave and not say sh*t?

I know, Whit, I know.

Where were you?

Could you, you can't even say.

I'm afraid to be home right now.

Somebody after you?

Who's Natalie?

You know what? I don't even

think it f*cking matters.

Just tell me one thing that's true.

You owe me that much.

I'm a teacher. I was a teacher.

Maddy's dad made me quit

and a year later he left.

[Whit] So the cop, he's

your second husband then?

He talked to you?

Andi, what the hell's going on?

I wanted to tell you.

What about Maddy? Is she a lie too?

I would never lie about her.

Why you in trouble?

Jesus Christ, you just

completely full of sh*t,

aren't you?

You know what? I decided

I'm going to Phoenix alone.

I don't know if it was ever

your intention to follow

through with this, but I

gotta think of Gracie now.

Leave it at that.

Can I at least say goodbye to her?

I really hope you find

what you're looking for.

Definitely in her debt.

(emotional music)

[Announcer] You're

watching KJMR News at 11.

[News Presenter] Good evening,

a deadly fire in La Copa

takes two family members.

The latest details coming up.

But first, has the spike of

the synthetic opioid, Fentanyl,

now surpassed all other types

of drug use in our area.

The f*ck are you doing here?

Checking on your mom.

I think I'm stupid, don't you?

How is she?

Not good.

Your friend Robby, I

need to know where he is.

It's Cheryl, right?

How you know my name?

Front desk sign in.

Cheryl, it's really important-

- Don't f*cking touch me, yo!

Why are you following me

laying all this

cross-examination sh*t on me?

What the f*ck are you looking at?

This b*tch is harassing me.

All right, I'm sorry.

You're right, I shouldn't

have touched you.

I think you knew my

daughter, Maddy Deegan.

See, I'm not a cop.

(rain pattering)

That necklace?

I didn't steal it, okay?

She gave it to me.

Why?

You really want me to f*cking answer that?

I only knew her a few weeks.

The police talked to you?

Yeah, they tried to.

There wasn't nothing to talk about.

They was trying to point

their finger at somebody,

but there wasn't no one to point it at.

Robby, he's the one?

What'd you say your name was again?

Natalie.

Right.

Look, Natalie,

you know she OD'ed, right?

Yeah.

And that them two was together?

Yeah, they found her next to him sleeping.

That's about as much

as they could tell me.

No, I mean like they was together.

Robby was her boyfriend.

You knew that, right?

I mean, seriously, they,

they got high together

like all the time.

I'm, I'm honestly surprised

it didn't happen sooner.

- Pull the car over.

- Huh?

Pull the f*cking car over.

Jesus. All right.

Okay,

I need you to tell me where your pimp is.

He ain't my f*cking pimp.

Don't you f*cking lie to me, okay?

I know you are conditioned

to say certain things

and that's fine.

What you are doing,

honey, it's only a matter of time for you.

Are you trying to protect him?

Tell me where he is.

(tense music)

I am probably the last person

that you expect to see.

Gimme one good f*cking reason

why I shouldn't jump across this table

and choke the life outta you.

If you do that, who's

gonna pay your bail?

(club music with beat)

Hey. Hey man, have you

talked to Kay lately?

- Who?

- Kay, man.

He's blowing my f*cking sh*t up

saying something about

giving the jump outta county

on some possession charge.

Dude, he wants to, he

wants to see me, man.

Look man, don't f*ck with

that again, bro, all right?

You know that n*gga ain't

looking to catch up.

No f*cking sh*t, man, but

I can't just ignore him.

Hey, look baby, baby.

Hey, go over there, go over over there.

I don't know man, okay? I don't know.

Kay, what's up fool? I saw you called.

Yeah, it's been a while

man. It's been a while.

I thought you bugged

out on me or something.

Oh, you know, man.

Yeah, I'm around.

Yeah, I'm just chilling my homies, dude.

Yep.

Hey look, I, I'd really rather

not tell you that right now.

Hello?

Kay?

Kay?

(crowd chattering in the background)

It's one in the afternoon, you know?

What do you want?

He here?

What you been saying?

You think I talked to him about you?

[Robby] Well, he seems

to think I'm the reason why

he got locked up.

What you want me to say, fool?

He gets an idea in his head and it sticks.

How the f*ck did it get in there?

Hey, somebody saying something.

You two, you spell tight and sh*t,

why don't you call him and ask him?

I haven't seen him in six months, n*gga,

Why the f*ck would I say sh*t?

f*ck!

(knocking on the window)

You wanna know where

he is? There you go.

(water running)

[Maddy] Hello?

Be right down.

(indistinct muffled talking)

(tense music)

(country rock music playing)

I'm telling you this will

go a whole lot smoother

if you had another smoke to roll.

Forget it.

What are you doing?

I'll see if he wants to smooth sh*t out

or if he's trying to get the jump on us,

but better have it and not need it, right?

I know Kay, this n*gga's not

someone you just talked to.

Something's up, man. I know it.

I'm all willing to take

a b*llet for a good reason,

but this sh*t don't seem sane.

Yo, you want him to show up unannounced?

sh*t.

Yeah, we got madden bandage on him, man.

I know this b*tch, he's

got no one up in his crib

except for maybe a couple nasty-a*s hoes.

You good, brother?

[Andi] sh*t.

(tense music)

- What the f*ck you doing?

- f*ck him, man.

I am f*cking tired of this bullshit.

You with me or not?

(door breaks)

(g*n fires)

(g*n fires)

Oh f*ck.

Oh f*ck.

(tense music continues)

Robby!

(car brakes screech)

No, no, no, no, no. Oh f*ck.

(car tires screeching)

Oh God.

Robby!

[Cheryl] Robby?

Come on. Get up.

Get up, come on, let's go. Get outta here.

[Cheryl] What the f*ck, man?

(door slams)

(cellphone ringing)

- What?

- Turn on the radio, 95.9.

(radio scanning)

[Radio News Reader]

Authorities are responding

to a tip received just moments ago.

Again, police are looking

for another g*nman

described by witnesses as a

Caucasian male, shaved head,

in his late teens or early twenties.

He left the scene in a dark

colored Hyundai and police are-

- f*ck!

(tense music)

(cellphone ringing)

[Robby] I already know who she is.

Robby, where are you?

The old place.

Dad, I'm hurt real bad.

There was a car.

I'm so sorry, dad.

It's okay. Listen, you

call an ambulance, okay?

I cannot do that.

They'll track me. You have to do it.

Robby!

Yeah.

Is she there?

Yeah, she's here.

- Is anybody else there?

- No.

[Harland] Put her on the phone.

Listen to me,

you know this isn't gonna

solve your problems, right?

He's just a boy who made a mistake.

He's the reason she's

not here. Your son.

[Harland] Natalie, right?

You're not gonna get yourself

dirty. That's not who you are.

Now listen to me, do one decent

thing and call an ambulance.

You don't who I am.

Right, you win, okay? You beat me.

But do you understand

what's gonna happen to you

if you don't help my son?

I'm sorry, Harland,

he's already dead.

You f*cking...

When I find you and you

know I will find you.

I will rip your God

damn f*cking heart out!

(tense music)

(screaming)

I didn't, I didn't mean to let her die.

(somber music)

This states that everything you told us

to your knowledge is factual

and that you're willing to go to court

testifying to the same if required.

Will you sign this?

Are you sure there's

nothing you want to tell us

about Natalie Deegan

or what happened to Kay Brown?

This is your last chance?

Sorry, I never met her.

(knocking at the door)

Higher, baby, than any mountain

Deeper than the deepest sea, oh yeah

I want, I want you to hold on me

Oh my darling,

Darling, darling oh

my, eternally, oh yeah

Listen

You gave me all the love

I need, oh yes indeed

The way you kiss me,

My darling, darling, darling,

darling, it's heavenly

Oh, the last night, baby,

You gave me your love so willingly

And forever the feeling will

linger on, for eternally

And baby, baby, baby

I know, oh I know

The love we have for each other

Is stronger, yes it is

Than any limb on a tree, oh yeah

And when you kissed me

And leave me
