American Soul (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 7 - Nothing to Fear - full transcript

Previously on American Soul...

Kendall, I like you, but...

Uh, no, I-I get it.

What exactly
you gonna do, Jeffrey?

Damn sure ain't
your father's son.

You see anything,
you blink the high beams twice.

You put a BOLO out
for a '63 Chevy II Nova.

Find that car,
we find our killer.

Jean is with Right On! magazine.

Ms. Jones is here
to interview me

for the December issue.



Soul Train bus tour.

I'm taking the show
across country.

It's gonna be massive.

If you move to Los Angeles,

baby, we won't make it.

♪ ♪

♪ Uh-huh, huh, huh, huh ♪

♪ Let me tell ya now ♪

♪ When I had you to myself ♪

♪ I didn't want you around ♪

♪ Those pretty faces always
made you stand out in a crowd ♪

♪ But someone picked you
from the bunch ♪

♪ One glance was all it took ♪

♪ Now it's much too late
for me to take a second look ♪



♪ Oh, baby,
give me one more chance ♪

♪ To show you
that I love you... ♪

- What's good, dawg?
- What's up, man?

Here, take your stuff.
You owe me 75 cents.

Uh, actually,
can you take that for me?

I got to go drain the river.

Way too much information, man.

I second that emotion.

Well, look what we have here.

How you doing? My name's Fresh.

Whoa, whoa. Where the hell

- you think you're going, son?
- Got to use the bathroom.

Not here.

Come on, sir.
I'll only be two seconds.

Colored bathroom's around back.

Just dig a hole and squat.

I said put that down!
You're gonna pay for everything

you touch, now, put it up on
the counter where I can see it.

Uh-uh.

You heard Don,
no drinking on tour.

- Reflects badly on the brand.
- Uh-uh.

You cannot take that from me.
I'm legal.

- It's my constitutional right.
- Call your congressman.

You booze, you're benched.
End of story.

16 hours on a bus playing
glorified babysitter?

This isn't drinking,

- it's survival.
- I like your hair.

- Yeah? I like your hair, too.
- Hey.

The hell do you think
you're doing,

- talking to this boy like that?
- Boy?

Who you calling a boy?
I'm a full-grown man.

Calling you a boy, boy.

Yeah. Take this boy away, boys.

I'm-a catch you later.

Get the hell back inside.

Guys, come on.

On the bus, come on.

Afternoon.

You people never listen.

Where you going?

- Kendall's not on the bus.
- Hurry up.

Last call, everyone on the bus!

Wait, wait, wait.

Hey, Wally, hit the horn.

We got company.

Kendall, what's taking so...

Everybody settle down.
Settle down.

How about you get off the bus
now, boy? Come on.

I'm talking to you.
Get out here!

Outside now. Both of you.

Outside! Move.

We got to roll.
This shit's getting hot.

- What about Kendall and Simone?
- Everyone settle down.

I'll show these crackers
what's up.

Back up! Get back!

- Back up! Back up.
- Let's get out of here.

- Won't be no trouble.
- What's going on out there?

Get away from the bus!

Damn it, Fresh. Give me that.

What are you, nuts?

Get out of here!

Oh, shit. Everyone down!

They're leaving us!

We got to get the hell
out of here, Simone! Come on!

We'll go back for them,
I promise.

♪ ♪

Red, I'm home!

Don!

Welcome home, baby.

Mm! Hmm.

- Huh. Oh...
- Merry almost Christmas, baby.

I know you didn't wrap this.

It's an answering machine.

If I call, and you're out,
it will record

my message on the tape.

That way, you'll never miss me.

Well, no machine in the world
can't stop me missing you,

but thank you, baby.

You gonna tighten me up later?

Don't I always?

So when's the bus getting here?

Mm.

Few hours.

Got to stop by the station
to meet Phil.

But I wanted to get in early
to see you and the boys.

Maybe go house hunting.

Well, now,
that's my gift to you.

I've already bought
the perfect place.

- You...?
- Yeah.

Where?

Ta-da.

You bought this house?

- With my money?
- Our money, Don.

Red, this place is good
for the insurance peddler

and the grocery girl, but
we aren't those people anymore.

Look, I like working
at that store.

And I like this place.

It's been good to us
when times weren't.

I did what was
best for the family.

And don't ask me
to be sorry about that, Don.

Mwah.

Ugh!

You want to walk
a little faster?

Those fools might
still be coming.

What? So now you're not
talking to me?

Look, I was not about
to piss my pants

- for some country-ass Klansman.
- You think this is a joke?

We are in the middle of nowhere,
it's freezing

and if we don't make it
to Chicago,

we might lose Soul Train.

Hey. Where you going?

What do you think you're doing?

Gonna ask for a ride.

And what
if he's one of them, huh?

How are you gonna
outrun bullets?

I am not gonna miss
this tour stop, Kendall.

I'll take my chances.

It's gonna be
a cold day today, sis.

Why don't we get you something
to eat, huh?

Uh...

Stay right here, okay?

Shh.

Just keep walking, man.

Uh, excuse me.

I'm Simone.

This is my brother Kendall.

Nick.

If you guys are here to rob me,

two cats in Wichita
already beat you to it.

You a musician?

All my life.

Folk and rock, mostly,

- but I gig all over.
- For real?

We're actually about to cut
a record out in L.A.

- Gonna be gold, for sure.
- Oh, yeah?

- Yeah.
- Well, what are two future gold album recording stars

doing in the middle
of hickville?

We were on our way to Chicago,
but we missed our bus.

You wouldn't happen to be headed
that way, would you?

Nah, I'm not going that far.

But I could take you as far
as McLean, if that helps.

- Yes. Thank you. Yes.
- Yes. Yes.

You sure you're not
gonna rob me?

Only if you don't rob us first.

That your Chevy Nova out there?

- '63 blue Chevy Nova?
- Yeah. It ain't for sale.

That's cool,
'cause I ain't buying.

I've been looking for that car
for a long time, Mr. Tucker.

Who the hell are you?

Detective Patrick Lorraine.

Gonna need you to come with me
down to the station

and answer a couple questions.

Officer Wills!

She'll take care of Aiya.

You should go ahead
and put that down.

What's this all about?

Let's not start off
by lying to each other.

Are you coming quietly or do you
want to get your sister upset?

♪ I'm so tired
of being alone... ♪

Hard to believe

that this is where it all began.

Still remember the day
you pitched me the idea.

You said that a show called
Soul Train would never work.

Boy, was I wrong.

Don, you know
I'm a straight shooter.

- Mm-hmm.
- Sit. Sit, sit.

So I'm just gonna come out
and say what's on my mind.

Wouldn't have it any other way.

25% of Soul Train belongs to us.

♪ I want to come back,
show me where... ♪

You suing me, Phil?

Well, hopefully,
it doesn't come to that.

That whatever you create,
we own a piece of it.

♪ So tired of being alone... ♪

I didn't sneak it
into the fine print, Don.

It's always been there.

♪ Soon as you can... ♪

If you want a fight,
we can fight.

But it'll drain you financially,
and you'll still lose.

♪ I love you so... ♪

Do what you got to do, Phil.

♪ You don't want me no more ♪

♪ Hey, hey, hey... ♪

This is Sandy.

This is Jamie.

Okay, but why do I care?

Because John McMartin was
Sandy's father

and Jamie's husband.
You murdered him.

I didn't kill nobody.

All right, then who did?

Your vehicle matches
the getaway car.

You have ties to our known
lead suspect.

We found this in your bumper
this morning.

Confession's good for the soul,
Jeffrey. Talk to me.

Okay.

But you might want to call
somebody to pick up Aiya.

You'll be here for a while.

Thank you, thank you.

Okay, okay.

Oh, by the way, man,

uh, here's a little something
for gas.

It's all I got on me.

Forget the bread.

Karma. It's what pays us back
one way or another.

Well, I called ahead
to the hotel,

- let everybody know we're okay.
- Oh, great.

Well, now we just
got to catch the bus.

And pay for it
with what, Kendall?

Well, if you guys are up for it,

there's a little club in McLean,
we can make some quick cash.

If you're good.

- Yeah?
- You want to...?

Do it.

♪ So darling, darling, stand ♪

♪ By me, oh ♪

♪ Stand by me ♪

♪ Won't you stand by me? ♪

♪ Stand by me, stand by me ♪

♪ Stand by me ♪

Ooh!

Well, cats and kittens, it looks
like we got ourselves a gig.

- Yes!
- Well, all right!

So I'm going shopping
with Joyce tomorrow.

- Joyce?
- Uh... you know she your favorite.

- Raymond's doing good in school.
- Mm.

Good.

Real good.

You're pretty quiet tonight.

- You okay?
- Yeah.

Ah, it's just work.
That's all, baby.

- Hmm.
- Mm.

- Not too tight.
- Well, the tighter the braid,

the bigger the fro.

Now, what's wrong?

Phil is trying to shake me down
for a piece of Soul Train.

Yeah, that smells like Phil.

I talked to Miles.

He said their case is strong.

I could lose, Red.

Now you listen to me.

Nobody can take
Soul Train from you.

You are Soul Train.

Yeah?

- That's why I love you.
- I love you.

Mm, that's why I love you.

What's wrong, baby?

- I heard that noise again.
- What noise?

It's like a possum or a raccoon
or something that's scratching

- inside the walls.
- Tony, go back to bed.

There's nothing to be afraid of,
all right?

Look at me. Do I look worried?

All right, when I look worried,
then you can worry.

Now get your butt back to bed.

Look, I'll put him down.

Come on, baby.

Mac, I'm telling you,

these guys are the real deal,
man. And-and,

I wouldn't have brought 'em here
if I didn't think this crowd

wasn't gonna love them, man.
I almost fell out

of the car, man,
they're so good.

Nick. These boys
will chew them up

- and spit them out if they soft.
- Mac!

Have I ever lied to you?

Hey, you of age?

This here ever work before?

You heard of Dugan's
in Hollywood?

- Yeah.
- Stop by next time I'm there.

If you can get a seat.

Three songs, 20 bucks.

$30 for an hour, you got a deal.

You won't regret it, Mac.

We got a show.
Now get backstage.

- Have a good show, guys.
- Come on.

Dugan's, huh?

So that's how you got so rich.

- JT know?
- He knows.

JT and I don't have secrets.

Hey, man, you hungry?

Nah, I'm good, man.

Hey, look, I know where
you coming from, JT.

I grew up a few blocks
from here.

I know exactly how hard it is
to get out the streets.

Especially with a mom on drugs
and a dad in prison.

How about we stick to subjects
you actually know about?

All right, fair enough.

I think

that Latch's boy,
Reggie Michaels,

was the triggerman.

And I think you know that.

I'm not after you, JT.

Just give me Reggie and you can
go back to making music.

Living life with your friends.

Hi, I'm Simone.

Uh, this is my brother Kendall,

our friend Nick.

And we're gonna sing
some songs for you guys.

Who asked you to?

I didn't come here for this...

Two, three, four.

Uh... can you make that out

- Anita? That's an odd name.
- Uh, no.

I'm Darryl...

Anita's my girl.

S-She loves you, and Simone.

I got a message from Simone,
she'll be here tomorrow.

They're safe.

What do you do at Soul Train?

The hard stuff.

Thank you so much.

Anita?

I thought you said
you were sick.

I... felt better.

he'd give me a ride over.

Hey. How old are you, really?

17.

Wow.

There's a whole world waiting
for you when you're ready.

Yeah.

You could be a star, Simone.

You just got to be willing
to put you first.

What's up, little man?

Man, what is this?

Maurice here is up for parole
in 18 months.

I told him I'd put in a good
word if he set you straight.

It's been a long time.

How's your mama?

I got a baby sister now.

Oh, yeah? Got to send her
a card or something.

You think a few letters
make you a better father?

How about writing when you not
looking to make parole?

What kind of trouble you in?

- I'm not...
- About to be in more trouble if you don't start

telling me the truth.

How do you do it?

How do you live a life
with blood on your hands?

Everybody got blood
on their hands.

It's just a matter of degrees.

I... I can't sleep.

Always looking over my shoulder.

I got caught up
in this robbery...

Keep your mouth shut.

Don't make the mistakes I made,
'cause once you do,

ain't no going back,
now, you hear me?

I would tell you don't do
the crime, and stay out of here.

Seeing as how I'm too late for
all of that, I'll just say this:

whatever you do, you got to lie.

Go on the run.

You got to out every last man
in your crew.

You do whatever it takes
to stay the hell out of here.

I'd rather you die first.

Prison don't reform nobody.

All you can be in there is
the worst version of yourself.

So you stay quiet,

and you stay free, son.

Thank you.

- Phillip.

It's good to see you.

- It's been a long time.
- Too long.

But you're as beautiful as ever.

Well, keep talking,

Well, how about right now?

Madam, what is your pleasure?

There they are.

Hey, we circled back twice
looking for you two.

- Yeah.
- Sorry. -You guys okay?

- Yeah.

redneck western thrown in.

What's up with her?

Your clothes are on the bus.
Go get changed.

Okay.

But today I'm paid to be Tessa,

and if she were here,
she'd ask you what's wrong.

So...

what's wrong?

- It doesn't matter.
- It should.

You're one of the best dancers
on the hottest show on TV.

And that's all anyone ever seems
to care about.

Maybe.

But dozens of those people
came here to see you.

Not Don.

Not The Five Stairsteps.

Definitely not the white guy
in the three-piece suit.

You.

And, um...

- thank you.
- You don't have

to thank me. I had a blast.

You're a really good dancer,
Darryl.

Keep it up.

Wait.

Feels like everyone's mad at me.

I wasn't mad. I was worried.

I was worried about you, too.

Still am.

Okay?

Talk to me.

Back in Texas...

...my baby brother
was gunned down

in front of our house.

He died in my arms.

Being on that bus,
seeing all those guns...

- Hey. Hey.
- I didn't know where you...

Hey, I'm here now.

Okay?

You're not alone.

I like you, Kendall.

And I haven't liked someone
in a really long time.

- Shut up.
- No, I-I promise you.

Hey, baby.

What are you still doing up?

Too scared to sleep in his room.

Tony. Aw.

Now, what did Mama tell you?
Hmm?

It's probably just a squirrel or
something, but it's nothing...

- Come on, Tony.
- Don.

I got it. What did I tell you?

Come on. Don't be scared.

It ain't nothing but a possum.

Now, you took a train across
country trying to be a man.

This is what manhood is,
defending what is yours.

No matter what it takes

and no matter
who tries to take it.

Hold it.

Shoot.

Pull the trigger, Tony.

Now!

Give me that.
Go upstairs.

Hey, Captain,
I'm in the middle of...

I know what you're doing,
Detective. But I thought

you might want to have a look
at this first.

You're a good detective,
Patrick,

and you'd make
a great lieutenant.

First Negro lieutenant
on the force.

But I'm not up for promotion.

You are now.

I need men I can trust

with the future
of this department.

As far as the public
is concerned,

the men responsible

for Officer McMartin's death
are dead.

This case is closed.

Lieutenant.

Mr. Cornelius is here
to see you.

Mm.

Great party last night, Don.

- Great party.
- Well, I'm glad

you had a good time.

I think the tour ended
on a high note.

I'm headed back to L.A.,
but I wanted

to give you your cut.

Glad you came around.

Nice when things end the way
they started, two friends

- wanting the best for each other.
Mr. Stewart,

-you've got a call on line three.
- Excuse me, Don.

Oh, please.

- Phil Stewart.
- Hi, Phil.

Hey, Ted. Good to hear your...

Yeah, well, maybe not so much.
We're pulling the plug

- across the board.
- T... N-No.

- W-Wait a minute, Ted. I...
- No, you wait.

We had a deal,
and you broke it.

Now that's not the kind
of arrangement

-we want to deal with. Have a good day.
- I see.

That was Ted Banks
from Woolworths.

They just pulled their ads.

Mr. Stewart,

Sears and Marshall Field's
are holding,

and Mr. O'Hare is on line two.

Thanks, Cindy. Um...

What did you do?

Well, they know
what I know, Phil.

I'm Soul Train.

If I go,

it's over.

You'd really burn it all down?

I gave you your shot, Phil.

You turned down my offer
to go national.

Keep the Chicago show going,

and we'll all make money
for a long time.

Or...

we can watch it burn together.

JT.

Thought I was under arrest.

Not today. Come on.

Thanks again
for all your help, JT.

Ready?

You wanted to see me, Marty?

Yeah.

I wanted to, uh...

Well...

Go to page 80.

I didn't want to put them out
before...

Aw, hell, Delores.

I'd trash them all
if I could afford it.

Listen, maybe...

maybe you go home
early today, huh?

My shift's almost over.

I'll be fine.

Hi.

Hello. Oh!

- We love you, Simone.
- Aw, thank you.

You're so sweet. Thank you.

Aw, I love you, Chicago.

Bye, Simone!

Girl, quit showing off.

Bye, guys.

Oh.

Thank you so much.

Bye, ladies.

My little sister's growing up.

It's got to happen sometime.

Cool with that.

Just stop the lying.

You don't want to be
that person.

No guns, no booze.
You all know the rules, right?

Hey, kids.

Chop-chop.

Hey, baby.
Can you hand me those shirts?

Who the hell is Ilsa DeJarnette?

- Hmm?
- What are you talking about?

Who is she, Don?

She's nobody, Red.
It's just business.

- All right?
- No, are you sleeping with her?

It's not what
it looks like, Red.

- Okay?
- No, I need the truth, Don.

And you know what? It ain't even
about you cheating,

because I've lived with that
for years.

But you embarrassing me
in front of my coworkers?!

The whole damn country, Don?!

- I can't deal with this right
now, Delores. I will no-Oh, no. he

- I got to catch a plane.
- Oh, no. No.

- We deal with this now.
- Like I said,

- we'll deal with this...
- You hear me, Don?

I knew this was gonna happen.
Don't walk away from me.

- You hear me talking to you.
- I said it's not what.

- Baby, I said it's not what it looks like.
- W-Don, wait a minute.d.

- All right? Already said it.
- Don! If you walk out that door,

you are choosing Soul Train
over this family.

We'll talk about this later.

Don. Don!

Don.

- Next time on American Soul...
- So, you're willing

to do six cities a week
for a year,

- but the thought of us...
- This has nothing

- to do with you.
- It never does, Tess.

I will not let him
drag you into everything

your father and I fought so hard

to keep you out of.
You and Jeffrey are over.

Just looking out for your mom,
Kendall. She wants you to stay.

And if you really cared
about my mom,

I wouldn't be
the only one leaving.

There's a lot of talk
in these streets, JT,

-and most of it says you a snitch.
- And what do you say?

- You should have taken the deal, Don.
And I got no problem

with the competition, but this?
This is war.
