Asking for It (2021) - full transcript

After small town waitress Joey (Kiersey Clemons) is sexually assaulted after a date with her old friend Mike (Casey Cott), she befriends mysterious stranger Regina (Alexandra Shipp). Regina introduces her to The Cherry Bombers, an all femme gang including Beatrice (Vanessa Hudgens), Lily (Leslie Stratton), Sal (Radha Mitchell), Jett (Leyna Bloom), Angie (Lisa Yaro), Fala (Casey Camp-Horinek), and Rudy (Gabourey Sidibe). All suffering from past traumas, together they fight a misogynistic society by targeting violent frat boys, a corrupt police force of human traffickers led by Sheriff Morel (David Patrick Kelly), and the dangerous alt-right group MFM (Men's First Movement) headed by Mark Vanderhill (Ezra Miller). As Joey is drawn further into their chaotic world, Sal's old flame, Logan County Sheriff Vernon (Luke Hemsworth), investigates MFM, leading to a thrilling showdown.

Gentlemen and gentlemen,
Mr. Mark Vanderhill!

Men first! Men first!
Men first! Men first!

- Mark.
- Mark.

- I freakin' love you.
- Thank you.

You the fuckin' man.

- You, ha-ha!
- Love you.

The way you changed
my fuckin' life.

I have a message to spread
that I believe

can save thousands
if not millions of lives.

I owe everything to you, man.

He understands what I'm about,
and that's why I joined his movement.



We're a movement
that remains prepared.

Mark, you taught me how to
reclaim my power as a man.

You see it, you want it,
you take it.

Setting the example.

Mark saved me from
being a beta male.

That's natural.

That's an expression
of dominance.

The most important thing
that has happened...

It's a natural movement.

...is the creation
of the MFM.

MFM.

MFM, baby.

The male exerts dominance
over the female.

It's fucking science!



Oh, he's so sexist. Oh!

- Fuck these hos.
- Shut the fuck up.

Well, feminists claim
they want equality,

but what they really want
is power.

- "No" don't mean "no."
- "No" means try harder.

This is the sort of imagery the
liberal media doesn't want you to see.

White, straight men
enjoying themselves.

That's when those fucking
liberal pansies are gonna listen.

- And if they don't...
- Boom!

- Boom.
- My M4 Carbine rifle will do the talkin' for you.

Time to show these snowflakes
who's fuckin' boss!

You wanna know what we think
about your sensitive politics

and these issues, yeah?

Fuckin' that's what we think!

- All right.
- Thanks.

You goin' huntin'?

Oh, I just like
to stay prepared.

Okay, there's nothing
wrong with that.

Can I get a...

A cheeseburger deluxe,
bloody rare,

with barbecue sauce
on the side?

Hey, you know
your girl's order.

Yeah, I know
everybody's order.

Um, well, I'm gonna throw
a curveball at you

and get a slice
of cherry pie.

Honestly?

The cherry pie
is, like, kinda trash.

It's just like Foster's
and they microwave it.

But the key lime pie
is homemade.

Key lime sounds great.

All right, key lime.

Joey.

- Mike!
- Hey.

- Hey!
- Hey.

What...

- Oh, my goodness.
- Hi!

- It's so good to see you.
- You too!

You look amazing!

Oh! Well, thank you.

What are you doing here?

Um, I got into law school,
um, so my social life is over.

- Wanted to...
- Okay.

...come hang for a bit,
yeah.

So I graduated
a semester early.

- Cool. Good for you.
- What about you?

You know, just...
I'm just here.

- It's... It's awesome.
- Yeah, it's awesome.

Um, I'm havin' a party tonight.
Totally come.

It's gonna be just bonfire
and drinks and... yeah.

Sure. That sounds fun, okay.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- Well, I'll get out of your way.
- Okay. Okay, cool.

Yeah, I'll see you later.

- Okay.
- See you.

Bye.

- Uh, we good?
- Yeah.

Roll, roll, roll it.
I'm feelin' it.

And we're back, fellas.

It's Mark Vanderhill,
your b-b-boy.

Dr. Vanderhill here,
Vanderhill Files, part two.

Two. T-Two. Part two. Two.

In the field. All right, I wanna
review part one really fast

'cause it's important.

We talked about
identifying a target.

Ta... Ta... Tar... Target.

Janine is pregnant again.

- Alan and Marie's daughter?
- Mm-hmm.

- She just had one!
- I don't know why you surprised.

Alan and Marie
had 11 children.

They must think pretty high
of themselves,

assuming the world needs
that much of them in it.

- Hey, Pop.
- Hey, baby.

Ooh, I'm hungry!

Not too hungry to say grace.

The dishwasher
broke at work,

so Marco's got us
hand washing,

which is unfair,
'cause that's not my job.

It's not unfair, baby.
That's work.

Whoa, wait, wait a minute.

She a waitress,
not a dishwasher.

Now, Marco want her
to do more work,

- he need to give her more money.
- Mm-hmm. Thank you, Pop.

You're gonna spoil her mind
with that talk.

Marco's a bully.
Always has been.

You push right back
at him.

- Oh!
- I will, Pop.

Vanderhill Files, part two.
We're in field.

We talked about opener. Do you know
about the Vanderhill technique?

Sorry, don't mean
to alarm you.

Just... I gravitated
towards you.

Feels like you could
use a little somethin'.

You're a little messy,
but, you know, you're cute.

- Can you cook?
- No.

Oh, well, then that's
enough of that.

- You're beautiful, I mean...
- Thank you.

All the makeup. Is this your
natural skin tone or is it...

Is it a little darker
without the makeup?

Can I see?

You saw the negging work.
Negging kicks ass.

Neg... Neg... Negging.

Like you saw it, right?

You saw it, right?
Right? Right? Right?

I wanna show it to you
and I wanna give it to you,

so that you can use this tonight.

Yes.

Got you there. Nope.
You wish, motherfucker.

What about you?

You're not planning
on serving coffee

for the rest of your life,
are you?

Um...

Oh, sorry. Sorry.
I did not mean that like that.

No. No, you're not wrong.

I, um... I thought
about being a nurse.

You can get your license
without going to college.

Um, I know. That's weird.

Uh, so, yeah, I...
I can do online classes

and still go to school.

Oh, no, go to work.

That sounds like... That...

I mean, that sounds like
something you'd be amazing at.

You'd be great at that.

Thanks.

I feel kind of sick.

I need to go home.

You can crash here
if you want.

I like you
and I'm having fun,

but... I need to go.

Okay.

- Um, let me walk you home, okay?
- Okay.

I'm pretty sure
I pulled out in time,

but just in case,

you should probably
take Plan B.

Bye.

No.

No.

Joey.

So maybe there's
somethin' here after all,

despite the faults?

All right. And that's...

Right on my heart line.

And...

- And your name was?
- Tanya.

Tanya.

Mark. Mark Vanderhill.

Right, and that's
how we do it, right?

It's simple. It's easy.
It's nothing you have to think about.

Joey.

What happened?

I just hurt my hand.
Nana fixed me.

How you doing, Joe?

Just powering through.

You sound like Nana talkin'.

You know that strength that
your grandmother talked about?

That's how she survived.

But it was also
her only option.

I know.

She dealt with
it by dealin' with it,

whatever it was.

That don't mean
the same go for you.

There's different ways
to show strength.

That's all?

A cup of coffee,
black and sweet.

- Okay.
- Just how God made you.

Joey!

Sorry. Sorry, um...

It's okay. It's all good.
It's... It's all good.

Yeah, yeah.

- Are you okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine. I'm fine.

I just...
Can I get you a, um...

Jesus.

Thanks.

No problem.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Um, uh, no.

Uh, I am not fine.

You got plans tonight?

Um, no,
it's been a long work week.

Come get a drink with me.

I'm not really
in a social mood.

Well, if you change
your mind,

I'll be at yours at 8:00.

They use their
front legs to snare their prey

with reflexes so quick

they are difficult to see
with the naked eye.

This poor male cricket...

Hey, Nana, I'm goin' out.

Okay.
Who you goin' out with?

Uh, someone I met at work.

What's her name?

...its prey,
camouflaged by the green...

I don't know.

You don't know
your friend's name?

What kind of person
doesn't tell you their name?

You know, you can come up and knock
on the door like normal folks!

- Sorry.
- My gran.

- It's all good. Get in.
- Yeah.

Go inside!

I feel like I should tell you
that, um...

...I'm not gay.

Okay. I'm not tryin'
to sleep with you.

I just want to
show you something.

- Show me what?
- You'll see.

What's she singin' about?

Revenge.

I'm confused.
This is where we're havin' a drink?

Yeah. Come on.

Hello.

Fala, this is Joey.
Joey, this is Fala.

- This is her home.
- Hi, I'm Josephine.

- Nice to meet you.
- Good to meet you.

Oh. Oh.

All right,
come on, bitch.

Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa.

You want it
to have power.

You're right, Fala.

Is this like a secret bar
or somethin'?

Well, um, actually,
this place is usually pretty quiet,

but some of our friends are getting
married, so it's about to get wild.

You want to go
to that too!

I do, but, girl,
it's just the way how we gotta do this.

'Sup, Reggie?

Hi, guys.

Hello.

Can I have two whiskeys?

Don't worry.
We don't bite.

Thanks.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Ah.

How was that?

Good.

This is crazy.

But do you work here?

No, um,
I work for Sal and Fala.

We help people get out
of bad relationships,

get off the street,
um, teach self-defense classes.

Stuff like that.

All right, bitches!

It's time for Hexus!

Whoo!

Make some fuckin' noise!

On the count of three,

Hey, Reg,

Fully functioning

Ooh!

This will come in handy.

Who's the cupcake?

Oh, uh, that's Joey.
She's my friend.

- She needs to use your bathroom.
- Yeah.

Hey.

- I gotta run an errand. You want to come with?
- Yeah.

What is
all of this stuff?

Careful.
This is a pin camera, okay?

It records video, audio,

basically makes secrets
not so secret.

Right.

Hey, let's go.

What did she say?

Oh, uh, she said that
you're a good dancer.

Oh. Thank you.

Yeah, we're goin'
back there.

You got it.

Hey, will you wait here?
Babushka's kind of weird with new people.

Yeah.

Babushka, we're comin' in!

Don't shoot, Babushka.
It's Regina and Beatrice.

Let's go, Babbo.

Hey, Babbo.

I'll tell you right now,

this stuff was not easy
to come by.

My cardigan?

I like your, um...
all your patches.

You're wild, Babbo.
Okay, we gotta go.

Let's go.

I'd tell you to be careful
with that stuff,

but it only affects the Y chromosome.

You girls have a good trip.

We will, Babbo.

- And be sure and pull over if you're gonna sleep.
- We will, Babbo!

If you stop by Milfred Farm, pick me
up some of that strawberry moonshine.

- We will, Babbo!
- We will, Babbo!

One, two, three.

Crazy cat.

You want anything?

- No, thanks.
- Yup. I'm good.

I'm gonna take a leak.

Unfucking real!

You're gonna embarrass me like that.
Are you fucking serious? Huh?

Hey!

Look at me,
you fucking drunk!

Jesus Christ, you're sloppy!

Maybe you made your point,
yeah?

Nobody asked you,
soul sister.

Doesn't seem like
she's arguing much.

She's not arguing
because she's a fucking idiot.

Lucky I don't smack her
in the mouth.

Honestly, you're lucky I don't
smack you in the fucking mouth.

I'd like to see you try.

Fucking bitches!

Tonight's your lucky night,
asshole.

We're giving away
free etiquette lessons.

Next time
you gotta pay up.

You need a ride?

Well, I think
we deserve a shot.

Um, hey, do you think that what
just happened was, like, bad?

- You guys are not gonna believe what fuckin' happened.
- What happened?

I don't know. I'm like kinda shaken up.
It feels weird.

I don't think that there's anything weird
about making men like that feel unsafe.

What if the police
find out?

You think he's gonna
go to the cops

and tell them that he got
beat up by a bunch of girls?

Come here.

Listen, she doesn't belong
here and you know it, okay?

So I think we should just
send her home and move on.

Dude, what is your problem?

What?
Who is Tommy Collin?

He is this fucking ruthless fuckboy
we went to school together with.

What's my problem?
She doesn't fucking belong here, dude.

Nobody fuckin' belongs here.
That's the whole fucking point.

He just threw me
on the ground.

I feel like we've all paid our dues.
We belong here...

Paid our dues.
What does that even...

He was much more graphic.
We went to school together.

Smacked him in the fucking
mouth with a bar flashlight.

Knocked out four
of his fuckin' teeth.

And then, like,
it was denial and embarrassment,

and anger, then disgust.

Angie, we've been together
since foster care.

You know, we travel around the
world, fuckin' shit up.

- Ain't takin' no names.
- Da-da-da-da.

What are you sayin' about me
over there, sis?

I'm sayin' that I got
the beauty and the brains.

Oh, that's okay, but I got the fuckin'
right hook. Don't you forget it.

Turn that shit up!

Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to scare you.

Can I make you
some breakfast?

Well, Regina seems to have
taken quite a liking to you.

She told me
about last night.

You all right?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.

Did the violence upset you?

I, well, freaked out
and froze.

I wanted to help, but...

Violence can be
paralyzingly intense.

You were rightfully scared.

I guess.

But the girls weren't.
They just stepped right up.

But you'd, uh,
call the cops next time?

They aren't
gonna do nothin'.

What'd you say?

The cops aren't
gonna do anything.

Well, I couldn't
agree with you more.

The girls just knew
what to do.

I wish
I could be like that.

You can.

Eat up.

Uh, thanks for the ride.

Are y'all
hangin' out later?

We leave tonight.

Where are you going?

It's not all weddings
and parties.

We got work to do.

What kind of work?

Kind of like a
clean-up-the-streets program.

Like last night,
but all over the state.

Oh.

You gotta ask a girl.

I'm not gonna
make it easy on you.

You think I could come?

Yeah, I think you could.

- I mean I don't wanna intrude.
- Shut up. You're not intruding.

But just think about it.

If you're not cool with
what happened last night,

we can just hang
when I get back.

Cool. Okay.

Okay, bye.

Oh, oh, oh. Just let me...

- My seat belt. It was on.
- Yeah. Yeah, it was.

You said you were attacked
by two Black males

who mugged you
and then smashed your car.

That's exactly
what happened.

You can't smoke in here.

The thing is,
I don't see it.

I see you pinnin' a girl
pretty good

and then gettin' your ass
handed to you, though.

See, that... that...
that is irrelevant.

Those bitches still
have to pay for my car.

You know that intentionally misleading a
police officer is a felony, Mr. Miller.

Why don't we call it even?

You will hear
from my father.

Can't wait.

Hey, Grandma.

Uh, I just wanted
to let you know

I am goin' away
for the weekend.

Um, I'm goin' camping
with my new friends.

So we're just
taking anyone with us?

Look, she doesn't know
the protocols, Regina.

She's gonna get
somebody killed.

But I didn't want you to worry.

I'm in good hands.

I love you.

- You look great.
- Thanks.

- Yeah, I'm glad you came.
- Me too.

Yeah.

Hey.

You seem like a smart girl.

This is not a holiday.

- All right?
- Mm.

So if you're gonna be here,
you're gonna contribute.

You will be counted on.

All right.

Thanks, Sal.

Ever since we were little kids,
I've always been better

and I'm always
gonna be better.

Okay, shit-talker.

- Exactly. Get your ass, let's go.
- Yeah, whatever! Let's...

It's that time
of the year again.

We're hittin' the road tonight.

Now, the target
of our focus this year,

MFM, Men's First Movement.

Was your standard group
of passive fascists,

but they have recently
become involved

in a series of hate crimes
and various assaults.

Now, the leader
is Mark Vanderhill.

You wanna know what we think
about your sensitive politics

and these issues, yeah?

Fuckin' that's what we think!

Mark Vanderhill began
his illustrious career

four years ago
as an online pickup artist

under the name Arc Angel.

And we're back, fellas.

Back... Back... Back, fellas.

Six months after his show
on DH1 was canceled,

Mark unveils his new blog,
The Master's Burden,

in which he has undergone
not just a physical makeover

but a seemingly
ideological one as well.

Consent politics.
I mean, fuck.

Have we all become faggots
out here, fellas?

'Cause here's what I know.
You see it, you want it, you take it.

That's what the MFM
is really all about.

You know, you hear these
libtards talk about safe spaces.

They don't really understand
what that means.

This is a safe space.

Mark became an alt-right icon
and formed MFM

after a successful series
of lectures entitled

"The Necessity of Dominance."

That's the way we've done it
for thousands of years,

and there's nothing wrong
with that.

That's natural.

That's an expression
of dominance.

Every species on the planet
does it.

The male exerts dominance
over the female.

It's fucking science!

The way you gotta work
with the gun.

You do it quick
in a satisfying way.

Same way I've always
talked about with women.

Can't be too gentle
with them.

You gotta make sure
they understand

how you wanna use them.

And of course,
we expect them to fight back

because it wouldn't be any fun
if they didn't.

That's your fuckin' head!

Yippee ki-yay, motherfucker.

You've never even been outside
of this town before, have you?

I mean, my aunt lives
in Philadelphia.

Just stay the fuck
out of my way.

Their increased militarization
has been cause for concern.

The MFM has some of the
best shooters in the world.

He has had notable association

with mass shootings.

Whoa! Fuck, yeah!

He's also linked to the
bomber at the Ogden abortion clinic.

That's what we're fuckin' talking about.
You see that?

All investigations
have mysteriously ceased.

Perfect.

Seems like he might be gettin'
a little help from the inside.

The MFM is hosting a rally
in Littleson.

Littleson is the hub
of human trafficking

in this nation.

It is a town run by a deeply
corrupt police force,

the head of which
is Chief David Morill.

Now, that would be him.

Now, he's a very dangerous man.

It's so goddamn dark out here.

Hmm.

Thanks.

Wait, she can hear perfectly?

Lily?

Yeah, totally.

She won a singing competition
when she was younger,

released a whole bunch of songs,
got semi-famous.

One guy in particular
kept sendin' her stuff.

Eventually, he started asking
her a bunch of weird shit.

So she rejected him,
and then six months later,

he showed up
to one of her shows,

knocked her unconscious,

sprayed lighter fluid
up her nose and down her throat

and set her on fire.

Holy fucking shit.

Yeah.

In court, he said something
along the lines of,

"If she's not gonna sing for me,
she's not gonna sing for anyone."

I, uh... I won't tell her
that you told me that.

I wouldn't have told you
if I didn't know it was okay.

Right.

And you? How did you, uh...

How'd you
end up here?

My stepfather
murdered my mother.

And I couldn't forgive him.

Marney.

Here, sir.

Bring the truck around.
Gotta go check something.

Yeah.
Time to hit the streets.

What? We're not hittin'
anything, okay?

Just bring the truck around.

- Just go get the truck.
- Right.

Where are we?

Put your gun down,
Marney.

I'm in my legal right to put
down a pair of trespassers.

We're not here for you,
Fala.

You got some balls
showin' up here.

Fala, these MFM guys
are complete psychos.

And they're in deep
with the police.

Nice seeing you, Vernon.

You know, a while back,
federal office suspected

that cops in Littleson are
runnin' a human trafficking ring.

They sent an agent
undercover,

and she was a tactically
trained field officer.

She turned up
missin' a head.

I ain't willin' to let that happen to
Sal, even if you are.

All right?

Oh, my God. Shit.

Yo, don't say anything.

Just stay calm.

Let Beatrice do the talking.

Black folks get killed talking
back to the police around here.

How're we doin' today,
ladies?

Good.

What are you ladies
up to?

Just goin'
on a road trip.

Oh, yeah? Where to?

I asked you
ladies a question.

I'm sorry, Officer,
but, um,

you haven't explained
why you stopped us.

I mean, you didn't
just pull us over

because you saw
two Black women driving?

A lot of drugs
coming through here.

You, uh, mind
if I call...

State law says an officer
may not detain a motorist

for a period of time longer
than reasonably necessary

to complete the
investigation of a violation.

But you may not detain us
while you wait

for additional officers
to arrive.

You ladies
watch your back now.

Know your rights.

Oh, my God,
that was incredible.

How did you know that?

My grandfather was
a district court judge.

Sounds like a smart man.

He was a complete
and utter cocksucker.

I thank the stars every day
that cancer ate his brain

and every pedophilic
thought in it.

So, what are we doing?

- Police work.
- Right.

But we're out of Guthrie, so we don't
have any jurisdiction here, so...

We're keepin' the people that
live in our jurisdiction safe,

even if they go outside
of our jurisdiction.

Even if they continually
make questionable decisions

that put themselves
and others in danger.

Okay, yeah.
That's... That's much clearer.

Thanks.

Tensions are high after
disciplinary hearings at NCU

led to a unanimous decision
of non-conviction

by the disciplinary board.

The case at hand
was based off of claims

of sexual assault and rape

made against the NCU chapter
of the Pi Iota Gamma house.

The claim was made after
this photograph surfaced.

Members of the student body
were protesting

- as soon as the decision came in.
- We need to call Sal.

Pi Gamma! Pi Gamma!
Pi Gamma! Pi Gamma!

Clean it up! What the fuck you gawkin' at?
Clean it up!

Today, justice was served.

After three long months of
bullshit persecution and slander,

those fuckin' admin faggots
finally learned a lesson

that we have all known
for a long time!

You can't stop Pi Gam!

Pi Gamma! Pi Gamma!
Pi Gamma! Pi Gamma!

Pi Gamma! Pi Gamma!
Pi Gamma! Pi Gamma!

We're 24 miles away
from that.

You know anyone over there?

Rudy lives
in the next town over.

They're the ones
that sent the video to Lily.

We're not just gonna
let this go, right?

We can't be everywhere.
You know that.

Come on, Beatrice.
You know that shit was fucked up.

Look at what these boys
are doin' to girls out...

...complaints
of sexual assault and rape.

...complaints
of sexual assault and rape.

All right, enough.

We go, we talk to Rudy...

And we help.

I spoke to
three different girls.

The photo in the news
was just the tip of the iceberg.

Apparently, these guys
film everything.

They have a room in the house
called "the vault."

It's reinforced

and it has
its own security system.

This is it.

Distract and retrieve.

No, no, no. You would have
to find a way of bypassing

the house's security system.

Lily.

All right, girls...

we're gonna
have to move fast.

Regina and I
will take lead.

I think Joey
should roll with me.

I mean, college kids.
She'd be perfect.

Regina, she...
But she doesn't know...

I was asking Sal.

I can do it.

- Okay.
- Hey, I wanna do it.

Fine.

Let's go pick out
some clothes.

Beatrice tells me
you're going after MFM?

Sal, those aren't
some frat boys.

The cops, this whole town...

Grayson says people go
missing there all the time.

Sal, I'm always gonna
have your back,

but you need to know

this destruction,
the violence,

you know it's gonna
come back to you.

It always does.

You're just gonna
have to trust me.

We need to get invited inside.

- Hi!
- Hi!

They're frat boys,
so this shouldn't take much.

We were touring the campus and we heard
that this is the house to party at.

So, we were just wondering if
you guys wanted to throw down.

We got... We got all... We got the
other floors, got a bedroom and a bed.

- Oh, wow!
- Um, you know.

I did that.
I put the bras up there.

- I love that chandelier.
- Yeah, it's, like, arty.

I brought some of
my uncle's moonshine, you guys.

To you all getting everything
that you deserve in life.

- I'll take that!
- Yeah.

- Take that!
- Cheers!

I'm so fucked up. Oh, my God.

I know!

Um, can I use
your bathroom?

What the fuck?
How do you, like, chug a beer?

Back it.
Open the throat up.

- Show me.
- Okay, open the throat.

- You know all about that, right?
- I do.

Like that?

Oh, my God,
he's gonna beat you.

He's gonna beat you.

Loser!

Jett.

Motherfucker.
Come on. Let's go.

Sleep well.

Damn, Bea. Warn a bitch!

Where's Lily?

Joey, n...

Lily!

I'm sorry about this.

Lily! Okay.

Go, go, go, go!

Did you check the statewide
banner like I asked?

Yeah. No sign of what
you told me to look for.

Sure?

Yeah, only three crimes
have been reported

for female perpetrators
in the last two hours.

Uh, however, no signs
of "groups of women

committing revenge crimes
in a big group."

You wrote "group" twice.

Which is fine.

Reports of
an explosion in 2236 Connor Drive.

A group of women reportedly
fleeing the scene in a truck

in a big group.

That's half a mile
from here.

I haven't worn a dress
in a minute.

- I kinda like it.
- Yeah?

I mean, I've never had a reason to
wear something like this, but...

- I'll be right back.
- Okay.

Thank you.

- There was an explosion reported...
- You see this shit?

...at the Pi Iota house.

Many students are claiming
that karma is responsible

for the blaze.

However, arson is believed
to be at play.

So the question remains:

What does the face of karma
actually look like?

- Nice.
- Yeah.

Hey, Sal.

And let's not forget
that I almost lost

a fucking hand
getting some of that intel.

No, I know that, and you know I
don't give a fuck about the money.

I just don't want you
to get hurt.

That's it.

Come here.

Yeah, good work.

But we need to keep goin'.
We need to get to Cuzzo's joint. Come on.

Jesus fucking Christ!

Hello.

Hi, is this Mark Vanderhill?

Who's this?

This is
Sheriff Vernon Oakwood.

Oh. Right, well,
that's not uncommon.

Can I ask what you think
that has to do with me?

Okay. Well, look,
I understand you know her,

but you clearly don't know me!

'Cause if you knew
anything about me,

you'd know that I don't cancel
events for activist fuck-rags.

Let me explain
something to you.

I can't cancel an event just
because a woman has it out for me.

Okay?
Do you know who I am?

Do you have any fuckin' idea how
many women have it out for me?

So, listen, tell your friend,
who you know so well,

that if she wants to come and
learn the necessities of dominance,

I'd be happy to teach her.

Hello?

Morill!

That was
an out-of-town sheriff

sayin' there's some feminists
who want to attack my event.

I'd like you to be there.
I need additional protection.

Not just
fuckin' Alistair.

Phone call must have
really spooked you, huh?

Do I need to remind you
that the whole reason

why your operation
is even functional

is because
I told the mayor...

Officer Grumm,

take that bitch to the boat
before she dies out here.

Yes, Chief.

Let the boys know
they can take off

once you get her
on board.

Then take this bitch
to his circle jerk.

It's not a circle jerk,
all right?

It's a very important
Men's First meeting.

I expected more unity
from my brothers, okay?

Men First!

Redneck.

I don't see him.

Hold on. Hold on there.

What y'all doin' here?

We're here to see Cuzzo.

Well, well, well!

The Mad Maxines
find themselves in need

of a little help
from their friends.

Well, you know,
we must really be in trouble

if the only help we can get
is from the Little Rascals.

Always talkin' shit.
How're you, Sal?

Lily's hurt.

Boys, show our guest where
the medical supplies are.

Hi, I'm Joey.

Anthony.
They call me "Cuzzo."

- Cool.
- Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Um, do you all live here?

About two years now.

After the floods came,
this whole area was abandoned.

We've been here
ever since.

Uh, who takes care
of you guys?

- What?
- Don't let age fool you.

These are capable,
smart boys.

We grow our own food.

We make money
salvagin' materials and such.

I learned how to survive for
five years from Sal and Fala.

- Hmm.
- I gotta say I'm impressed.

I am.

It's a lot better
than a group home.

Yeah, that's the idea.

Yo, fellas!

Let's get the table ready
for dinner tonight.

I came up with the queer
pop all-star squad.

Oh, my God.
You're obsessed.

Ellen Ripley,
Sarah Connor, Clarice,

all the Disney villains... Ursula, Jafar, all of them.

Gandalf, Sherlock Holmes
and Harriet the Spy.

Don't forget Curious George and the
little white children of Narnia.

Oh, my God!

Hey.

Um, my friend thinks
you're pretty.

Aw!

You're gonna give those boys
a heart attack.

Fellas, pull up!

So may you
eat well tonight,

and if you do ever need us,
we'll be there for you.

Now let's eat!

He knows about Littleson.

He seems concerned,
even for him.

It's possible we may have
underestimated the situation.

Vernon knows
where we're going.

- Who's Vernon?
- He's a cop.

Why are we going
to Littleson?

'Cause that's where
Sal's goin'.

Who's Sal?

Who's Sal?

I'm gonna
tell you something,

- but I don't wanna hear another word about it, okay?
- Yeah.

I was graduatin'.
I was gettin' ready to go to the academy.

She'd already graduated.
She was so fuckin' smart.

And we had a thing.

He was very charming,
and he was very handsome,

and, shit,
I grew quite fond of him.

And so I asked her to marry me.

- Where?
- What?

Where did you ask her
to marry you?

On a Ferris wheel.

That's romantic.

I said yes, like an idiot.

I had no fucking clue
what I wanted.

You were in love.

Yeah.

Well... I got pregnant.

He was thrilled.
I was not.

We fought about it.

I did what I had to do.

He went and told my family,
who promptly disowned me.

We never did get married.

I met Fala instead.

- You still love her, don't you?
- Don't...

- What?
- Don't. You're gonna give me advice.

- Just don't.
- Sure. Sure. I get it.

Lockin' it up. It's...

- Just one thing, though. I...
- Nope, nope.

I could say this doesn't
matter, but it does.

Now, if any of you
wanna quit...

now would be the time
to talk.

All right.

I hope my nana's okay.

I am so excited
to see you all here tonight!

Whoo!

- Here's the man we've been waiting for.
- Yeah!

Gentlemen and gentlemen,
Mr. Mark Vanderhill!

Men first! Men first!
Men first! Men first!

Men first! Men first!
Men first! Men first!

Men first! Men first!
Men first! Men first!

- Men first! Men first!
- Soldiers. Brothers.

Okay, so not only
am I very excited to see

all these familiar faces here,

but I'm also even more thrilled maybe to see
some of the new faces I see out here, right?

Faces of people who...

who wanted to be here,

who wanted to be here,
but were afraid

to make their faces known!

I know about that fear.
That's what I wanna talk about today.

A lot of you might know me
from the Vanderhill Files,

if we've got any Fanderhills
in the building.

When I was a young man, I was
actually a very sad, very lonely kid.

I was rejected,
teased by my peers.

I was ignored by women who...
You know what they do.

They say they want one thing,
ultimately maybe they want another thing.

I was rejected by a culture
that, as I've grown older,

I've just watched it
become crazier and crazier

and more and more emasculated.

A culture in which every woman and
minority is a superstar by default.

Regardless
of their behavior.

No more insults, right?
No more slurs.

That's what they say. But somehow,
these certain words are approached

with more and more anger,
right?

No slurs, but we've got
these words now, like, uh,

I don't know...

Straight?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

I don't know. White?

Yeah.

- Man?
- Yeah!

Dirty words.

Now, I don't know if y'all here
are men of religion or science.

It doesn't matter.

You and I, we know.

We are men.

We're men!

We're men!

I'm not gonna be
sorry for that anymore!

I'm not gonna be sorry
for being white!

I'm not gonna be sorry
for being straight!

We brought this civilization
out of chaos.

We founded this country
on our backs,

and now, at the 11th hour,

with the work already done,

now they want a seat
at the table.

Now they want us
to give up power willingly

into the hands of people
who, I'm sorry,

are incapable of wielding it.

Well, brothers... brothers, let me say...

Over my dead body.

Over my dead body!

Men first!
Men first! Men first! Men first!

Men first!

Hey, y'all fellas. You may notice
the room may be gettin' a bit hazy.

But don't worry
about your lungs.

This stuff won't kill you.

It isolates chromosomes in human
DNA that are meant for reproduction.

Bobby,
we got a little technical something.

Making it an effective sterilizing
agent for male primates.

It shuts down cardio flow to your penis.

Side effects may include
no more erections ever again.

What the fuck is that?

Alistair, Alistair!
What the fuck is that?

So you don't have to
interact with women anymore.

Yeah. No more crying.

- No more makeup.
- No more periods.

Ew!

So, remember, boys, be nice.

Hey, be ready
to fly out of here.

As soon as Bea shows,
we're gone.

Yeah, baby!

There's nothin' I love more
than watching grown men squeal.

Watch out!

Come on, Bea, come on!

- I will fuck you, bitch!
- Come on, Bea!

- I will fuck you!
- We gotta go!

You know, sometimes you gotta
stop and smell the flowers.

Come on, Bea.

Are you crazy?

You just sterilized
a room full of men!

What more do you want?

I'm talking to you!

Fuck!

We don't have time for this!

Come on! Come on!

Bea, get in the fucking truck!
Get in the car! Joey, go!

Are you out of your mind?

- What is wrong with you?
- We're on the same team. Just drop it!

- No!
- Bea, you were makin' a play that you didn't tell anyone about.

Oh, of course, you rush to
defend your new friend, Regina.

- Oh, God!
- Don't worry about how many times I saved

- your fucking life or anything.
- Shut up!

- You are such a hypocrite!
- You are out of your league, bitch!

- Everything I have is because of me.
- So what?

- You... You were just gonna... You were gonna rape that man?
- It's accountability, okay?

And no one's gonna give it to
us, so we have to take it.

- Even if that means playing dirty sometimes.
- It is not the same thing.

I can tell it's hard for you to
wrap your head around the fact

that we can't always
talk shit out.

So sometimes you just
gotta fuck somebody up.

Yo, bro, chill!

Hey, fuck. Shit.

Joey!

Ah, fuck.

Hey.

We're exposed out here.
We need to get to Cuzzo's. Come on.

What are we doing?

We're doin' what
no one else will.

And, yo, you're not wrong about Beatrice.
She does fucked-up shit.

But she comes
from fucked-up shit.

And I'm glad that
you called her out.

I'm sick of fuckin'
doin' it myself.

Ow! Watch it.

No. I told you.

It was four Black ones
and, like, an Arab.

I'm sorry. I'm not sure
I know who you are.

Vernon Oakwood.
I'm the sheriff of Guthrie.

Guthrie? You're quite
a ways from home.

- Just followin' up on a couple of things.
- You're the guy who called me.

The one who told me
to cancel.

I heard about that. You seemed
concerned about some vigilantism?

That's right, I was,
but I don't know.

You made that call,
and now you're here,

a moment after
a terrorist attack.

Why don't you tell us
what you do know?

- Just followin' a hunch.
- What's her name?

Doesn't really seem
like her MO.

People change.

- Well...
- Don't you worry.

We take care of our
loose ends around here.

If she had somethin'
to do with this,

she's gonna be in a body bag
before sundown.

I was tracking them through
the surveillance cams.

Fifty miles from here.

One cam,
five miles down the road.

He's fuckin' full of shit.
I want you to arrest him.

I want you
to arrest him right now.

Listen, I know you got
some big-shot pride,

but you raise your voice to me
again, I'll kill you where you stand.

Get me some traffic footage
from every direction.

Yes, Chief.

Been a long couple
of days, huh?

I'm ready to go home.

You don't
have to explain.

When I first met Regina,
she was only 12 years old.

She'd already
killed a man.

At this point,

Regina is so used
to this life,

she doesn't even consider if
this is what she wants anymore.

Asking yourself
what you want,

listening to that

and doin'
what is right for you.

It's what
makes you strong.

We all understand
betrayal.

For some of us,
it was a system.

Maybe it was
our families.

Could have been
a stranger.

Maybe it was
an old friend.

We all know
why we're here.

Did I tell you
or didn't I tell you?

Yeah,
right here somewhere.

Whoo-hoo! Black attack!
Come on, let's go!

Boys, move.
Come on, come on.

- We gotta go. We gotta go.
- Come on. Come on.

Boys, move! It's time to move!
Let's go! Come on!

Boys, get everythin' together!

Okay, now listen.

You stay with the girls
and you get home.

- All right?
- Yeah.

- You got it?
- All right, all right.

Come on, come on, come on. Get the bags.
Take this one. Petey, you got your backpack?

- Move to the front. Come on!
- Get these boys right out of here.

No matter what.

What are you doin' here?

You still look good.

- You look like hell.
- Yeah.

I'm in better shape
than you are, though.

Deranged lunatic Morill's
tryin' to find you.

You came a long way
for a heads-up.

You really think that they're
gonna let you walk away from this?

These guys are
professional murderers, Sal.

They're comin'
for your blood.

All right,
let me take you in.

I'll get you to a... get you a cell,
get you safe. It's better than a morgue.

My knight in shinin' armor
comin' to save my neck

by choppin' off my head.

You can hate me all you want,
all right, just...

Oh, I never hated you,
dummy.

I just wanted you to
ask me how to help

instead of telling me
how you're gonna do it.

You really
haven't changed a bit.

- I can control the situation. Just trust me.
- Hey!

It's over.

They're coming!

How can I help you?

You still shoot
that pistol?

Get down on the ground,
or we will kill you!

Hey, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I know
what she meant to you.

Yeah.

You know, I do what I
wanna do no matter what.

And... it's not always cool.

I was completely
out of line back there,

and you were right
to have stopped me.

What are you gonna do?

Take the boys
to the Bomb.

Talk to Fala.

Figure out
what the next step is.

Yeah, we'll lead the way.

No, no,
we can't go back there.

Beatrice, we don't have time
for this, okay?

- We don't have time for this? What do you...
- Beatrice is right.

Regina, the man that killed
Sal, we gotta take him down.

War is upon us.

Today will go down in history
as the beginning of the end

for those who seek to destroy what
we have worked so hard to build,

these important and critical
structures of power.

Now, I'm on my way to convene with
some of my most trusted brothers

on our best course of action
going forward.

To my followers,
to my soldiers, know this.

Victory in this war
will be both bloody and sweet.

Know that I am personally
coming for you.

Fuck! Fuck!

How the fuck
did we let this happen?

After the chemical weapon
was released,

we tracked the suspects
to a nearby junkyard

with our fellow officers
from Guthrie,

who, I am sad to say,

have both been shot and killed
by these maniacs.

We were, however,
successful in taking down

the terrorist cell.

All the women responsible
for the attack in Littleson

have been killed.

That's all
I can share for now.

I bet you my boots
they're gonna try to find me.

So get out to the boat,
make sure everything's still on schedule.

I think you're gonna find
this was a big mistake.

I'll be there in an hour.

I got two more to load up
before the boat heads out.

You should have stuck
to frat boys and catcallers.

What are you
gonna do to us?

Kill you?

Nah.

Ten grand a head,
you're worth more alive.

Might have some fun with you
before I send you packin'.

Really, you're just
a fucking hired gun.

Power is defined
by the storyteller.

If my boat full of women makes
it from San Marco to Mexico,

I'll be rich.

That boat gets intercepted,

I'll be the hero.

Call me whatever you like.

Nobody cares
what some Black cunt said.

They care what I say.

You see, I can turn
a missing mother of four

into a dangerous prostitute
who's abandoned her children.

I can turn the heroin
that I bought

into the reason why
we shoot up a car full of spics.

I'm the storyteller!

I can make you moan
like the whore you are.

What do you say, Joey?

Enough
for a conviction?

Yeah.

Say cheese,
motherfucker.

- Get off me!
- Hey!

Like you said,
they won't believe us,

but there's no way
they won't believe you.

Fala said the
video's going crazy on the Net.

Yo, look at all this shit.
What the fuck?

These are ID's
of 20 different missing women.

I like to keep trophies.

Gettin' your dick wet
is one thing,

but takin' something from someone
that they don't wanna give you,

well,
that's really special.

- What the fuck?
- Joey, don't.

Someone took it from you,
didn't they?

I saw that same fear
in your friend's eyes.

She looked scared
when she died.

Let's give you
a fair shot.

You ain't got it no
more, old man.

Take him down.

We should go.

Not me.

What?

Come on.
You have to come with us.

Come on.

- I can't.
- No, you...

No, I can't.

Baby!

I didn't even know
you were here!

Mmm. Mmm.

Oh. Baby, what's wrong?

Nothin'.

It's just good
to see you.

How you feelin'?

Better.

- Pop.
- Hey.

Hey, you know somethin'?

I walked two miles every day
while you were gone.

- No, you didn't.
- Yes, I did. Two.

I got some
of this brown sugar butter.

You're gonna love it.

After breakfast,
we can walk to the store.

You won't believe how they've
changed some of the stuff.

Oh, and some of the people...

Joey.

- Can I come in?
- Uh, yeah, yeah.

Uh, can I get you
somethin' to drink?

It's good to see you, Joey.
I've been, uh... I've been meaning to...

to call you.

What'd you wanna
talk to me about?

Nothing. I just wanted
to let you know

that I was gonna be pretty busy
the next few weeks.

It's gonna be hard
to hang out.

Oh, you thought I wanted
to hang with you again?

No, I was not assuming that.

I just... I just wanted
to... to touch base.

Oh, relax.
That's not why I'm here.

All right. Um...

What's...

What's goin' on?

I've just been thinking
about the last time we hung out.

You know, the details,
they're, uh, a little foggy.

Yeah? Uh, which part?

Well, I remember
getting to the party.

I remember hanging out
and laughing.

I remember you were
being so sweet and...

...encouraging.

- And then, I don't know, that's when...
- You know what, Joey?

I have a phone call
for a big interview

that I really wanna get.

It's in,
like, five minutes.

Mike.

Would you like me to leave?

What if I said no?

What would you do
if I said no?

Oh, come on, you did it.
You can say it.

I raped you.

You raped me.

Did you think
if you never admitted it

that it never happened?

That if you left it
out of your story,

it would be erased from mine?

Silencin' the truth
doesn't mean it isn't there.

Doesn't mean it goes away.

And it doesn't let you
off the hook for what you did.

You raped me, Mike.

But you don't get
to tell my story.

I do.

So I'm gonna tell it right.

And don't forget.

I will be watching.

So be good now.

- Speaking of the news...
- Yes. Oh, my God, those girls in the...

I've been following this on
the news since the beginning.

I'm just gonna
start talking,

'cause I don't really
know where to start.

What those ladies did
was absolutely acceptable.

Honestly, I don't feel bad for
a second for what happened.

We live experiencing violence
all the fucking time.

And nobody cares.

And I'm so glad that these girls are
finally doing something about it.

As a survivor
of sexual assault,

I've been told my whole life
that I can't be angry.

You're gonna sit back
and take it?

There's
no accountability.

The system has yet
to protect me.

The system has yet to do anything
about what happened to me.

Those girls in that town,
they were like...

They finally
did something about it.

Taking the law
into their own hands.

Gives me permission
to feel everything

that up until now I've
been told I shouldn't feel.

So they destroyed
a little property.

Wait, but where do I sign up
to join the girl game?

Women are standing up
for themselves.

- Is that worse than what the boys were doing?
- Nope.

Passive resistance
is no longer an option.

And the death of that
sheriff means that things

are actually
gonna change.

- We have had enough.
- Yeah, we had enough.

- Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!
- Fuck men, yeah!

I'm just fuckin' thrilled that
there's a whole new generation

of badass women
out there.

Those fuckers got
what they deserved.

This time,
you're paying the price.

It's inspiring that people
are standing up finally.

- Yeah.
- Hopefully it will lead to some sort of change.

Those cocksuckers
deserved it.
