American Gods (2017–…): Season 2, Episode 3 - Muninn - full transcript
[ Shadow groaning ]
MR. TOWN: Mr. World
wants to know why
Mr. Wednesday would bring
a nobody into his tribe.
I'm just a bodyguard.
- [ high-pitched whirring ]
- [ groaning ]
There's a devil in the French
Quarter of New Orleans.
None better with the spice
of life than the old Baron.
I need the eyes of Argus
on my side to see my enemies.
Make the connection for me.
Ifrit, Grimnir needs you
at the Corn Palace.
Ask for Old Iktomi.
To what end?
Gungnir.
Find Media.
Oh, Media!
Come on.
Mr. World wants you.
We will meet
in your reincarnation.
Be proud, Betty.

MR. WEDNESDAY [ distorted ]:
Betty the Barbarian,
a Berserker!
Be proud!
Be proud!
Valhalla!
Betty the Barbarian.
A Berserker!
[ eerie music ]
[ neighing ]
[ engine revving ]
[ shouting, muffled ]
Shadow!
[ door creaking ]
LAURA: Shadow!
Shadow!
SHADOW: Laura!
[ horse galloping, snorting ]
Laura!
[ fire crackling ]
Ah, Mrs. Moon.
Fuck.
Did we sit on a wall?
Did we have
a great fall?
Shadow's here somewhere.
We have to find him.
Sweeney, pick up the arms
and the talkie bits, would you?
[ coughing ]
Laura!
Don't do this.
I've always been a leg man
myself, Laura.
[ Mad Sweeney grunting ]
- Don't help him.
- Pipe down!
Believe it or not,
I'm helping you.
[ clattering ]
[ thudding ]
C'mon! Put her in the trunk!
Motherfucker!
I trusted you.
[ thudding ]
Fucking vultures!
[ grunting ]
[ trunk closing ]
MR. WEDNESDAY:
Welcome back, Betty.
- [ tapping twice ]
- Shadow!
[ echoing ] Shadow!
[ coughing ]
You sure you wanna
leave the oaf?
LAURA: Shadow!
Am I the only one
that has faith in Shadow?
My faith is waning.
The quickest way for Shadow
to get where he's going
- is sometimes the longest.
- LAURA: Motherfucker!
[ eerie music ]
[ Shadow screaming ]
[ coughing ]
[ soft dissonant music ]
[ groaning ]
[ panting ]
[ coughing ]
[ grunting ]
[ bird cawing ]
[ bird, echoing ]
Cairo! Cairo!
Cairo...
SHADOW: Cairo.
[ man whispering,
bird echoing] Egyptian.
Egyptian?
No more.
[ bird cawing ]
[ bird cawing ]
What's the news, Muninn?
[ bird cawing ]
Did you find our boy?
[ bird cawing ]
Excellent.
Okay. You can fuck off now.
[ bird cawing ]
[ clears throat ]
MR. IBIS: Right arm.
Five pounds, two ounces.
Loss of one ounce to necrosis
plus a quarter ounce of maggots
Nature's way of saying
you've overstayed your welcome.
You just gonna lie there,
let nature have her way
with you?
Hey!
Snap out of it,
ya fuckin' cunt!
[ screaming ]
[ clattering ]
- Told you not to call me that.
- MAD SWEENEY: Ah.
There she is.
[ Mad Sweeney sighing ]
Are you eating me?
The funerary arts
we practice are ancient.
The deceased don't generally
witness them.
Ugh.
You've changed
since I last worked on you.
The first time we met,
you didn't believe in anything.
But now... well...
It's definitely something.
I believe in Shadow.
And as soon as you've
got me all stitched up,
I'm gonna do
what the Cowardly Lion
over there
wouldn't let me do before,
and I'm gonna save him.
Coward?
I saved you.
I'm dead, Coward.
Well, you're welcome
for picking up all your gory
little fuckin' pieces
up off the road!
LAURA: I wonder how much longer
I'm gonna be fixable.
I mean, how long until all this
is just... maggots?
Can you stop
chewing, please?
God! Just finish me up!
MR. WEDNESDAY:
And can ya hurry it up, Ibis?
Mrs. Moon and I
have a date with Argus.
MR. IBIS:
That old dog?
MR. WEDNESDAY:
No, not Odysseus's mutt.
The man with all the eyes.
Argus Panoptes.
- Argus?
- Mm.
To what end?
Sorry, why should I help you?
Well, those stitches
ain't gonna last forever.
MR. IBIS:
I give it another week.
MR. WEDNESDAY: My old friend
Argus can recharge your coin.
Stop the rot.
He's lyin' to ya.
Argus is nothing
but a standard-issue
peeping fuckin' Tom.
I'm going to New Orleans,
dead wife.
I suggest
you come with me.
I can get you
what you actually need.
Your man works for me,
Mrs. Moon.
MAD SWEENEY: Mark my words.
You're gonna need the Baron,
dead wife.
I'll see you in New Orleans.
Let's go, Mr. Wednesday.
Thank you.
You're a bigger fool
than I thought you were!
If you still trust him after...
Keep an eye out
for her dearly beloved.
A little bird told me
Shadow's on his way.
[ panting ]
[ honking ]
Fuck.
[ gas station bell dinging ]
[ birds cawing ]
[ door bell dinging ]
Oh-ho.
Oh, this is heavenly.
And a beautiful angel too.
My goodness,
it is so humid out there.
Y'all should get a water.
It's 69 cents plus tax,
but it ain't gonna help
with the humidity.
Perfect. And
please ignore this.
I went hiking,
I may have fallen over.
It's a little bit
embarrassing.
Um, I only have a 20 on me.
You got enough singles?
Oh, yeah,
no problem.
Great, thanks.
So, the water and the map
together is $7.02.
Great.
Oh, uh...
- [ door bell ringing ]
- I may have
something
a little bit smaller.
'Cause, no, I-I
don't wanna...
I don't wanna get
all your change there.
So, if I give you
three singles,
then you can just
give me my 20 back.
And I'll take
a beautiful smile.
I'll tell you what.
My two kids wiped that smile
off my face a long time ago.
- No.
- GIRL: Hey.
That's not right.
He never paid you
for that pretty smile.
He don't owe me for that.
Then you don't mind
if I take it.
Give me 20 on Pump 2.
CASHIER: Well, that's not
up to me. It's his money.
Trust me.
He doesn't mind.
Well, do you two
know each other?
Oh, I know him.
[ chuckling ]
Ah, there you go.
Ah... thank you.
Thank you.
Hey.
So, uh... how far is that
20 gonna take me?
From where you were standing
to where you are now.
Look, I... I just need
to get to Cairo.
It's Cay-row.
Cay-Cay-row?
You homeless
or something?
Ah, heh, no, no, no.
It's just...
I was just hiking and, and I,
I just, I slipped on this rock.
I busted my ass. Ended up
just tearing all down here.
You're a liar.
- [ camera shutter clicking ]
- Hey, can...
What's that about?
Evidence. Case you turn
into a psycho down the road.
Get in.
MR. IBIS: Why Argus?
[ cat purring ]
Well, even before
her union to Zeus,
Hera, Goddess of marriage
and childbirth,
ruled over the heavens
and the Earth.
The wisdom of Zeus
is best exemplified
in the fear he had
of his sister,
for she was also his wife.
They fought frequently
over his many
extramarital affairs
and illegitimate children,
but in the end,
all Gods fall victim
to their thirst for worship.
[ eerie music ]
The advantage of love
at first sight...
...is it doesn't require
a second look.
[ mechanical ticking ]
Zeus saw the River God's
beautiful daughter Io,
and fell madly in love.
He consummated his desires
without any consideration
of the consequences.
Displeased with
Zeus's infidelity,
Hera turned Io into a cow
and summoned her servant Argus
to keep the heifer
away from her husband.
Frustrated by his own desires,
Zeus sent Hermes to deliver
a fatal message to Argus.
The death of the All-Seeing One
angered the Queen of Goddesses.
In an act of vengeance,
she channeled her will
and Argus was reborn,
in America, as the God
of Surveillance.
But as his believers waned,
so did his sight.
Only his memories remain intact
An alliance with the New Gods
seems imminent.
[ drone beeping ]
[ crashing ]
[ alarm beeping ]
TECHNICAL BOY:
This was an hour ago.
He was heading south
into Illinois, of all places,
with an unidentified female
before we lost connection.
I've got nine more
on the way.
They'll notify me
as soon as they relocate
Wednesday's little minion.
And the drone that went down?
OPERATOR: I can't confirm
the exact location.
The GPS logs were corrupted.
If the network
had been upgraded...
First of all,
fuck you.
Second, I told Argus to upgrade
this hub eons ago.
I am not some
ant-fucking micromanager.
[ chuckling ]
Have you heard of the...
...broken-window theory?
A broken window in
a nice neighborhood...
...signals to all who see it
that the norms have slipped.
Your broken window
has signaled to every God
that has not chosen a side
that my house is not in order.
Get your man in line!
[ laughing ]
You do not want me
to solve this.
Right.
- You will go to him in person.
- Why?
Tradition!
We build the new world
on top of the ruins
of the old.
COMPUTER: Download complete.
Compiling.
Run program.
[ electroacoustic music ]
[ electronic pop music ]
[ soft music ]
Media.
NEW MEDIA:
Oh, that's just so old.
This here is New.
New Media.
Ah, and that's a...
...Happy Birthday to me.
So, what's our play, boys?
Argus.
Ah, fuck, yes!
The man with the fiber optics!
You know, that's my jam.
- Good.
- Ah.
Uh...
How the fuck
is that an upgrade?
[ bird cawing ]
LAURA: What is this place again?
MR. WEDNESDAY: Oh, ask
the local tinfoil-hat brigade.
They'll tell you
it's the secret HQ for
the Deep State,
the Illuminati,
the men in black.
Ask the local council,
city hall, they'll tell you,
"Ah, it's just a warehouse
full of computers."
LAURA: What's the truth?
MR. WEDNESDAY:
Truth is Argus,
and the truth doesn't care
which version you prefer.
The truth is just
information.
And information will win the war
for you, if you let it.
- I'm not in a war.
- Oh, you are
if you wanna get
that heart ticking.
Come on!
We're taking
the scenic route.
Interesting choice.
Old school.
The fuck are we?
We're in a field.
Well, memory of a field.
[ doors closing ]
Is he dead?
Oh, deader than you.
What did you come
back for, anyway?
Who is he?
That's an old version
of Argus,
a cast-off husk
after he changed
into something else.
Now, you revenants,
and that's what you are,
my dear,
you tend to be single use.
You come back
to do the one thing,
and then slip back off
the mortal coil.
So, what's your mission?
You know what
my mission is:
Shadow.
Oh, so, marriage, kids,
summer house? I mean,
how do you see this ending?
- I don't know.
- You don't know.
So, you're working
on faith, huh?
Well, I definitely wouldn't use
that word, but...
You, uh, came back
from the dead,
but you're not even curious why?
Well, I see a golden beam
of light wherever he is,
so from where I'm sitting
it's pretty cut and dry.
Oh.
Do you, uh...
Do you see one here?
No.
Interesting.
[ sighing ]
Shadow made my heart
beat again.
He kissed me and my dead
fucking heart beat.
That has to count
for something.
Uh-huh. In death as in life,
it's all about Laura Moon.
You saw a light.
Your heart beats.
What about Shadow?
What about his heart, huh?
He's got a nice stretch of road
ahead of him now.
He doesn't want
to spend it with a corpse.
You really think you can compete
with what I can show him?
Yeah, I do actually.
You were beautiful,
and kind,
and your lover will
remember you forever.
Odin thanks you
personally for this gift.
[ eerie music ]
Jesus Christ.
[ knife hitting the ground ]
Change requires sacrifice.
[ dissonant music ]
You coming?

I didn't picture
the Corn Palace like this.
In my head it was
a lot more yellow.
Like corn.
[ chuckles ]
Roadside attractions
are all about the green.
- [ country music playing ]
- ANNOUNCER: Alright, guys,
you've been waitin'
all night for this.
Welcome to the stage
the beautiful Tamara!
[ whistling ]
Is Old Iktomi
a Jinn like you?
Iktomi is a shapeshifter
and a spider like Mr. Nancy.
He controls humans
like puppets
so, whatever you do,
do not look him in the eyes.
How did he get
Gungnir?
Trickster Gods always
seem to find a way.
[ whistling ]
[ sniffing ]
Ifrit.
[ sniffing ]
You smell of sex with humans.
Well, maybe that's because
I like to fuck humans!
[ laughing ]
- How are you, my friend?
- I'm good, my friend.
Iktomi will grant
Votan's request,
but expects
a favor in return.
Follow me.
[ folk music playing ]
I was listening
to this audiobook
before you bought
a ticket to ride.
You ever hear
of the Crow Nation warrior
named Finds Them
and Kills Them?
No, but he sounds
very efficient.
He was different.
Like me: two-spirited.
You're human, right?
You're not
some buffalo queen,
pulling coins outta hoards,
turn into fucking spiders?
[ chuckling ]
Not yet.
Although, if this were
back in the day,
I would've been godlike.
Why?
Two spirits
in one body,
both masculine
and feminine.
It was considered a gift
from the Creator.
[ scoffing ]
Yeah, well,
Gods only give gifts
when they get
something in return.
Okay.
The only gift
my people ever got
was a cozy smallpox
blanket and genocide.

Have you never
been in a library?
I love libraries.
I miss libraries.
This is not a library.
Oh, this is a library.
This is a memory of a library.
LAURA: Is that the same guy
from the field?
Oh, don't feel sorry for him.
He's moved on.
So, the game is that we follow
the trail of dead bodies
until we get to the most recent
version of your friend Argus?
Smart dead girl.
I can see
what Shadow saw in you.
You don't know
the first thing about me.
Oh, I know everything
about you.
Everything.
You say you miss libraries.
Remember that book you kept
and said it was lost?
When you were 10,
you took it home,
your dad got drunk, as usual,
spilled some booze on it.
It stunk and stained so bad you
were ashamed to take it back.
What was the title of it?
Tiger Eyes. Judy Blume.
And have you
visited a library since?
It's a cool party trick.
You know a story about me.
You don't know me.
You know,
your friend isn't exactly
rolling out
the red carpet for us.
He... is not expecting us.
I want it to be a surprise.
You know you don't want
Shadow, don't you?
Please, tell me more
about what I want.
You want to feel.
You want that rush of blood
to the head
when you stand up too fast.
Fuck too hard.
Kill those guys on the train.
You gotta get that ticker
ticking, by hook or by crook.
Shadow is frightened
of that girl, isn't he?
I have no idea
what you're talking about.
You know exactly
what I'm talking about.
You are not the girl he fell
in love with anymore.
Are you?
You know, that's really
none of your business.
So, why don't you
just tell me
how the fuck we can
get out of here?
Well, that is obvious, huh?
Sacrifice.
Okay, well, this guy's
already dead.
So, are there rats or something?
What's the worst thing
you can do to a book?
Um...
Ignore it?
This is a memory of the Great
Library of Alexandria.
It contained a copy
of every book ever written.
You could spend a lifetime
in here and many did.
Until Caesar
came to town.
He laid siege
to the city.
When he was backed
into a corner,
he set fire
to his own ships.
His own men.
They died looking up to as much
of the sky as they could see
through the smoke
and the flames.
Some must have lasted
long enough
to see the fire roll up
to the Great Library.
Oh, that was sacrifice.
[ dramatic music ]
Burn, baby, burn.
[ folk music playing ]
[ camera shutter clicking ]
You hungry?
Yeah. I could eat.
[ classical music playing ]
[ door opening ]
Tell Votan not to forget
who his friends are
- when this is over.
- [ chuckling ]
That motherfucker
has no friends.
[ laughing ]
Iktomi is here.
Whoa.
This place is definitely
about the green.
[ classical music playing ]
You've brought me
a sacrifice?
Votan offers no worship.
I'm Salim.
Can I offer you drink
or smoke?
DJINN: Come now.
Your tricks, your potions.
They do not work on me.
Remember?
When the time comes,
Votan must pay homage.
[ speaking Arabic ]
Iktomi.
[ suspenseful music ]
Gungnir's an
instrument of death.
Will Thoth allow it?
That...
...my very, very,
very old friend,
is not your motherfucking
concern.
[ laughing ]
He's gonna need this too.
[ soft choir music ]
Leave me.
Choukrane.
Iktomi.
[ rock music ]
GIRL: You a fan of catfish?
SHADOW:
Uh, fish is fish in my book.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure not
all sushi was created equal.
[ laughing ]
I will take
your word for it.
So, what's in Cairo?
I gotta find
the Egyptians?
The Egyptians
in Cairo?
I actually know
a place.
It's been there
forever.
I guess sleeping
with the dead
is better than sleeping
with the fishes.
Yeah, well...
What's her name?
Who?
You know who.
Laura.
Mmm.
Yeah, I know a few Lauras.
Every one of them's
been a pain in my ass.
[ chuckling ]
Well, this Laura's dead, but...
I'm just gonna let that
sink in for a minute.
[ dinging ]
MAN: Okay, I got four cats,
two shakes, two fries!
Just a hot second,
new girl.
We need
a plan of attack.
Mm. Man with a plan.
Love it.
- I'm in charge.
- I'll sing backup.
- [ clicks tongue ]
- Got it! #NotMe, #You!
Cool.
Follow my lead.
These Old Gods
need special handling.
- [ beeping ]
- [ elevator whirring ]
It is kinda weird that he sent
us both, though, isn't it?
I mean, we're basically...
...redundant.
Hm?
We're different enough.
Different audiences, for sure.
What I really need...
Bandwidth.
You think you
could hook me up?
- [ birds calling ]
- [ vehicle approaching ]
[ bus honking ]
Dude! You all right?
[ rock music playing ]
So, you're going all the way
to New Orleans, then?
Yeah, we're bringing
our message there tonight.
We are just so happy
to have you.
Have you accepted Jesus Christ
as your Lord and Savior?
[ rock music ]
♪ Yeah. Now I fully
rely on God ♪
Fuck...
♪ I fully rely on God.
Yeah ♪
TECHNICAL BOY [ chuckling ]:
I'm really trying
to see things
from your perspective.
Then I remembered that
you're literally fucking blind
so I might have
to spell this out for you.
May I remind you,
one word from me
and you go back to trolling
the Dark Web on IRC bots
and Geocities pages.
The ingratitude.
It hurts me.
How many other Gods
would love the access
that I've given to Mr. World?
TECHNICAL BOY: No, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no.
That you've
given me, Argus.
Me! You're tech, okay?
And tech is my bitch, okay?
That makes you
my fucking bitch, okay?
MR. WEDNESDAY: I need you
to do something I can't.
- I need you to kill him.
- What?
He's been playin'
both sides,
and I need to get him
off the field.
Go for the tattoo on the neck.
That's where the magic is.
He dies,
your coin recharges.
Live to see the future
with Shadow
that you've put so much
unearned faith in.
You're a fucking liar.
I wanna go home now.
All right.
Don't believe me.
But you're still gonna need
a sacrifice to get outta here.
LAURA: I am not like Shadow.
I see right through you.
I know you're a fucking fraud.
Oh, can't con a con,
is that it?
Well, I did, and you were
such an easy mark, hmm?
You sleepwalked through
your life while you had one,
then I had you killed.
And now you're sleepwalking
through your death.
It's my hand
up your skirt, puppet.
Because for all that
gaga-goo-goo
about coming back
for love,
I know what makes you tick and
isn't our dearly beloved Shadow.
It's self-interest,
like any other mere mortal.
I'm just making sure that...
...what I'm having you do is
what is right for Laura McCabe.
[ dramatic music ]
Entropy leads logically
to disorder.
All systems evolve
towards chaos.
Even alliances with Gods.
Listen to me, you cosmically
inconsequential sack of shit...
Let me handle this.
Hi, big guy.
Nice to meet you.
I don't think
we realized how...
big,
how powerful
your network really is.
Now that I'm here, it occurs
to me that we could,
you know,
do something on our own.
[ high-pitched whirring ]
NEW MEDIA: Forget Mr. World.
You're someone who can
handle my demands.
What the fuck, Media?
You would join me?
Leave Mr. World?
NEW MEDIA: I have millions
of subscribers.
Thousands of likes and
shares per minute.
Everyone watches me, but I need
someone who can watch them back
We were made for each other.
Connect.
[ distorted voice ]
Merge. Be me.
[ grunting ]
See the world through
the eyes of everyone
who has ever watched me.
Together, we can usher in
the new wave
of synergistic, expansive...
- [ arcade game music ]
- ...marketing opportunities.
I can see.
[ New Media moaning ]
- [ electronic music ]
- [ moaning in the distance ]
[ moaning ]
[ moaning ]
Um, guys...
Never mind.
[ moaning ]
[ dramatic music ]
[ dial-up internet connection
sound ]
[ moaning ]
Your loss,
my gain, you fucking nerd.
[ panting ]
I wasn't done.
Come on.
TECHNICAL BOY:
Wednesday's move, am I right?
Tell the old cunt
he's fucking welcome.
LAURA: Hey, it's done.
You can come out.
Coming!
Nothing's happening.
You are so impatient!
Who the fuck were
those people?
World's people.
I told you he'd gone
over to the other side.
ARGUS: Wednesday.
Well, I am so sorry,
Argus, my old friend.
This war business,
nothing personal.
But I'm sure
you'll come back somehow.
And just remember when you do,
which side you're on.
[ electronic buzzing ]
[ eerie music ]
[ gasping, panting ]
Well, lookie here.
I guess it wasn't
all about Shadow, after all.
Now, that should hold
the rot for a while
and that makes us
square. So...
Ciao, baby.
I'm, I'm coming with you.
Why?
- Shadow.
- No, no, no.
You can't come back, not after
everything you've been through.
No, no, no, no, no.
Your dead little
heartbeat and Shadow
had fuck all to do with it!
And what a mercy that is, huh?
He doesn't love the girl
that wants to be alive
and will kill to get
what she wants.
No, he loved the girl
that tried to off herself
with bug spray.
And that girl...
...well, she doesn't exist
anymore, does she?
Oh, I just love a happy ending.
Goodbye and good luck,
Miss Laura McCabe Moon.
[ panting ]
[ chuckling ]
It's funny.
A lot of my dreams
are nightmares.
Buffalos and skulls and...
...all kinds of weird shit.
I just don't understand.
Well, good luck with that.
[ chuckling ]
Yeah.
I don't want luck.
I want peace.
My father was
a full-blood Cherokee,
and he called me a half-breed.
My mother raised me
with the Bible by her side.
There was
no peace for me.
Not in their worlds.
But I found my home
in the stories of my ancestors.
Keep searching...
...or give up.
[ insects chirring ]
[ car engine stopping ]
[ soft music ]
[ chuckling ]
[ sighing ]
Hey. I never did
catch your name.
I'm Shadow Moon.
Sam Black Crow.
[ fireflies fluttering ]
Friends of yours?
[ engine revving ]
[ soft violin music ]
[ percussive music ]
[ grunting ]
MR. WEDNESDAY:
Shadow Moon.
Well, look at you.
Trial and tribulation
make you stronger,
but you look like
you have been through it.
So, this is
how it's gonna go.
I'm gonna ask you
some questions.
And you're gonna give me
some answers.
Revelations come when ready,
not when requested.
Fine.
Then just tell me why.
Can you just,
just tell me why these sadistic
motherfuckers are after me?
Oh, could be your face,
could be your shoes. Who knows?
All I know is that,
in the morning,
you're gonna wake up
and wanna seize the day.
No, Shadow, listen.
Listen to me.
If you don't wake up
in the morning
feeling like a million bucks,
you can take Betty
and leave, with my blessing.
Eh?
We have a compact?

MR. TOWN: Mr. World
wants to know why
Mr. Wednesday would bring
a nobody into his tribe.
I'm just a bodyguard.
- [ high-pitched whirring ]

There's a devil in the French
Quarter of New Orleans.
None better with the spice
of life than the old Baron.
I need the eyes of Argus
on my side to see my enemies.
Make the connection for me.
Ifrit, Grimnir needs you
at the Corn Palace.
Ask for Old Iktomi.
To what end?
Gungnir.
Find Media.
Oh, Media!
Come on.
Mr. World wants you.
We will meet
in your reincarnation.
Be proud, Betty.

Don't do this.

Are you eating me?
The funerary arts

The deceased don't generally

Ugh.
You've changed
since I last worked on you.
The first time we met,
you didn't believe in anything.
But now... well...
It's definitely something.
I believe in Shadow.
And as soon as you've
got me all stitched up,
I'm gonna do
what the Cowardly Lion
over there
wouldn't let me do before,
and I'm gonna save him.
Coward?
I saved you.
I'm dead, Coward.

And can ya hurry it up, Ibis?
Mrs. Moon and I

No, not Odysseus's mutt.

Argus Panoptes.
- Argus?
- Mm.
To what end?
Sorry, why should I help you?
Well, those stitches
ain't gonna last forever.
MR. IBIS:
I give it another week.
MR. WEDNESDAY: My old friend
Argus can recharge your coin.
Stop the rot.
He's lyin' to ya.
Argus is nothing
but a standard-issue
peeping fuckin' Tom.
I'm going to New Orleans,
dead wife.
I suggest
you come with me.
I can get you
what you actually need.
Your man works for me,
Mrs. Moon.
MAD SWEENEY: Mark my words.
You're gonna need the Baron,
dead wife.
I'll see you in New Orleans.
Let's go, Mr. Wednesday.
Thank you.
You're a bigger fool

If you still trust him after...
Keep an eye out
for her dearly beloved.

Shadow's on his way.

Oh-ho.
Oh, this is heavenly.
And a beautiful angel too.
My goodness,
it is so humid out there.
Y'all should get a water.
It's 69 cents plus tax,
but it ain't gonna help
with the humidity.
Perfect. And
please ignore this.
I went hiking,
I may have fallen over.
It's a little bit
embarrassing.
Um, I only have a 20 on me.
You got enough singles?
Oh, yeah,
no problem.
Great, thanks.
So, the water and the map
together is $7.02.
Great.
Oh, uh...
- [ door bell ringing ]
- I may have
something
a little bit smaller.
'Cause, no, I-I
don't wanna...
I don't wanna get
all your change there.
So, if I give you
three singles,
then you can just
give me my 20 back.
And I'll take
a beautiful smile.
I'll tell you what.
My two kids wiped that smile
off my face a long time ago.
- No.
- GIRL: Hey.
That's not right.
He never paid you
for that pretty smile.
He don't owe me for that.
Then you don't mind
if I take it.
Give me 20 on Pump 2.
CASHIER: Well, that's not
up to me. It's his money.
Trust me.
He doesn't mind.
Well, do you two
know each other?
Oh, I know him.
[ chuckling ]
Ah, there you go.
Ah... thank you.
Thank you.
Hey.
So, uh... how far is that
20 gonna take me?
From where you were standing
to where you are now.
Look, I... I just need
to get to Cairo.
It's Cay-row.
Cay-Cay-row?
You homeless
or something?
Ah, heh, no, no, no.
It's just...
I was just hiking and, and I,
I just, I slipped on this rock.
I busted my ass. Ended up
just tearing all down here.
You're a liar.
- [ camera shutter clicking ]
- Hey, can...
What's that about?
Evidence. Case you turn
into a psycho down the road.
Get in.
MR. IBIS: Why Argus?
[ cat purring ]
Well, even before
her union to Zeus,
Hera, Goddess of marriage
and childbirth,
ruled over the heavens
and the Earth.
The wisdom of Zeus
is best exemplified
in the fear he had
of his sister,
for she was also his wife.
They fought frequently
over his many
extramarital affairs
and illegitimate children,
but in the end,
all Gods fall victim
to their thirst for worship.
[ eerie music ]
The advantage of love
at first sight...
...is it doesn't require
a second look.
[ mechanical ticking ]
Zeus saw the River God's
beautiful daughter Io,
and fell madly in love.
He consummated his desires
without any consideration
of the consequences.
Displeased with
Zeus's infidelity,
Hera turned Io into a cow
and summoned her servant Argus
to keep the heifer
away from her husband.
Frustrated by his own desires,
Zeus sent Hermes to deliver
a fatal message to Argus.
The death of the All-Seeing One
angered the Queen of Goddesses.
In an act of vengeance,
she channeled her will
and Argus was reborn,
in America, as the God
of Surveillance.
But as his believers waned,
so did his sight.
Only his memories remain intact
An alliance with the New Gods
seems imminent.

TECHNICAL BOY:
This was an hour ago.
He was heading south

They'll notify me
as soon as they relocate
Wednesday's little minion.
And the drone that went down?
OPERATOR: I can't confirm
the exact location.
The GPS logs were corrupted.
If the network
had been upgraded...
First of all,
fuck you.
Second, I told Argus to upgrade
this hub eons ago.
I am not some
ant-fucking micromanager.
[ chuckling ]
Have you heard of the...
...broken-window theory?
A broken window in
a nice neighborhood...
...signals to all who see it
that the norms have slipped.
Your broken window
has signaled to every God
that has not chosen a side
that my house is not in order.
Get your man in line!
[ laughing ]
You do not want me
to solve this.
Right.
- You will go to him in person.
- Why?

LAURA: What is this place again?
MR. WEDNESDAY: Oh, ask
the local tinfoil-hat brigade.
They'll tell you
it's the secret HQ for
the Deep State,
the Illuminati,
the men in black.
Ask the local council,
city hall, they'll tell you,
"Ah, it's just a warehouse
full of computers."
LAURA: What's the truth?
MR. WEDNESDAY:
Truth is Argus,
and the truth doesn't care
which version you prefer.
The truth is just
information.
And information will win the war
for you, if you let it.
- I'm not in a war.
- Oh, you are
if you wanna get
that heart ticking.
Come on!
We're taking
the scenic route.
Interesting choice.
Old school.
The fuck are we?
We're in a field.
Well, memory of a field.
[ doors closing ]
Is he dead?
Oh, deader than you.
What did you come
back for, anyway?
Who is he?
That's an old version
of Argus,
a cast-off husk
after he changed
into something else.
Now, you revenants,
and that's what you are,
my dear,
you tend to be single use.
You come back
to do the one thing,
and then slip back off
the mortal coil.
So, what's your mission?
You know what
my mission is:
Shadow.
Oh, so, marriage, kids,
summer house? I mean,
how do you see this ending?
- I don't know.
- You don't know.
So, you're working
on faith, huh?
Well, I definitely wouldn't use
that word, but...
You, uh, came back
from the dead,
but you're not even curious why?
Well, I see a golden beam
of light wherever he is,
so from where I'm sitting
it's pretty cut and dry.
Oh.
Do you, uh...
Do you see one here?
No.
Interesting.
[ sighing ]
Shadow made my heart
beat again.
He kissed me and my dead
fucking heart beat.
That has to count
for something.
Uh-huh. In death as in life,
it's all about Laura Moon.
You saw a light.
Your heart beats.
What about Shadow?
What about his heart, huh?
He's got a nice stretch of road
ahead of him now.
He doesn't want
to spend it with a corpse.
You really think you can compete
with what I can show him?
Yeah, I do actually.
You were beautiful,
and kind,
and your lover will
remember you forever.
Odin thanks you
personally for this gift.

Iktomi is a shapeshifter

Why?
Two spirits

and feminine.
It was considered a gift

Have you never
been in a library?
I love libraries.
I miss libraries.
This is not a library.
Oh, this is a library.
This is a memory of a library.
LAURA: Is that the same guy
from the field?
Oh, don't feel sorry for him.
He's moved on.
So, the game is that we follow
the trail of dead bodies
until we get to the most recent
version of your friend Argus?
Smart dead girl.
I can see
what Shadow saw in you.
You don't know
the first thing about me.
Oh, I know everything
about you.
Everything.
You say you miss libraries.
Remember that book you kept
and said it was lost?
When you were 10,
you took it home,
your dad got drunk, as usual,
spilled some booze on it.
It stunk and stained so bad you
were ashamed to take it back.
What was the title of it?
Tiger Eyes. Judy Blume.
And have you
visited a library since?
It's a cool party trick.
You know a story about me.
You don't know me.
You know,
your friend isn't exactly
rolling out
the red carpet for us.
He... is not expecting us.
I want it to be a surprise.
You know you don't want
Shadow, don't you?
Please, tell me more
about what I want.
You want to feel.
You want that rush of blood
to the head
when you stand up too fast.
Fuck too hard.
Kill those guys on the train.
You gotta get that ticker
ticking, by hook or by crook.
Shadow is frightened
of that girl, isn't he?
I have no idea
what you're talking about.
You know exactly
what I'm talking about.
You are not the girl he fell
in love with anymore.
Are you?
You know, that's really
none of your business.
So, why don't you
just tell me
how the fuck we can
get out of here?
Well, that is obvious, huh?
Sacrifice.
Okay, well, this guy's
already dead.
So, are there rats or something?
What's the worst thing
you can do to a book?
Um...
Ignore it?
This is a memory of the Great
Library of Alexandria.
It contained a copy
of every book ever written.
You could spend a lifetime
in here and many did.
Until Caesar
came to town.
He laid siege
to the city.
When he was backed
into a corner,
he set fire
to his own ships.
His own men.
They died looking up to as much
of the sky as they could see
through the smoke
and the flames.
Some must have lasted
long enough
to see the fire roll up
to the Great Library.
Oh, that was sacrifice.

I see right through you.
I know you're a fucking fraud.
Oh, can't con a con,
is that it?
Well, I did, and you were

You sleepwalked through
your life while you had one,
then I had you killed.
And now you're sleepwalking
through your death.
It's my hand

Because for all that

Oh, I just love a happy ending.
Goodbye and good luck,
Miss Laura McCabe Moon.
[ panting ]
[ chuckling ]
It's funny.
A lot of my dreams
are nightmares.
Buffalos and skulls and...
...all kinds of weird shit.
I just don't understand.
Well, good luck with that.
[ chuckling ]
Yeah.
I don't want luck.
I want peace.
My father was
a full-blood Cherokee,
and he called me a half-breed.
My mother raised me
with the Bible by her side.
There was
no peace for me.
Not in their worlds.
But I found my home
in the stories of my ancestors.
Keep searching...
...or give up.

Hey. I never did
catch your name.
I'm Shadow Moon.

Friends of yours?

MR. WEDNESDAY:
Shadow Moon.
Well, look at you.
Trial and tribulation
make you stronger,
but you look like
you have been through it.
So, this is
how it's gonna go.
I'm gonna ask you
some questions.
And you're gonna give me
some answers.
Revelations come when ready,
not when requested.
Fine.
Then just tell me why.
Can you just,
just tell me why these sadistic
motherfuckers are after me?
Oh, could be your face,
could be your shoes. Who knows?
All I know is that,
in the morning,
you're gonna wake up
and wanna seize the day.
No, Shadow, listen.
Listen to me.
If you don't wake up
in the morning
feeling like a million bucks,
you can take Betty
and leave, with my blessing.
Eh?
We have a compact?
