Animal Kingdom (2016–…): Season 2, Episode 7 - Dig - full transcript

The guys contemplate how far they'll go to help Smurf eliminate Javi. A shaken Nicky and J inch closer together.

Your wife, nobody's seen or heard
from her in two-and-a-half months.

I will find out what
you did to her.

How much you want, Javi?

300 grand.

I'm sorry, Smurf.

You think I came all this
way for 25 grand? Huh?

For the last goddamn time,
where's the real money?

- I swear! I swear!
- How'd you hurt your leg, eh?

Nicky.

- Who took Nicky, J?
- Javi.

Tell me where you
are, we'll come get you.



Trailhead and Ash.

It's where we buried him.

- Who?
- Javi's father.

Working on a yacht?

I tell you what, you're gonna
make the world's worst waiter.

Then I'll bartend.

Here.

Are you kidding me with this?

Smurf, again.

Yo.

So, soon as we get the schedule,

we'll pick the party
with the highest rollers.

I'll do the few events,
see what we find.

Yeah.



Just make sure you don't get
your ass fired on the first day.

So, what's up? Are we
gonna need everybody on this?

I'm on the inside.

I'll kill the engine and the radio, you
three with guns to fleece the guests.

Someone has to
distract the Coast Guard.

Don't even bother with
that. She's looking for me.

"911"?

Yeah, she probably
forgot the Wi-Fi password.

Why's she so pissed at you?

It's the same old shit.

When Mama calls, just
throw the phone in the fridge.

Problem solved.

Yo, we keep this job
between us till we're solid.

- Yeah, I'm cool with that.
- All right.

Hey, it's Deran.
Leave a message.

Go get your brothers.

I can handle it here.

Turn on the perimeter
alarm, watch the cameras.

You feel better, baby? Let
me get you some ice packs.

How do I find Javi?

Take a deep breath.

J, what you're
feeling now is shame.

There were four of them.

There was nothing
you could do. Nothing.

Get in.

You okay?

You talk to anyone?

Did you call anyone?

Did you call anyone?

- No, just Smurf.
- Good.

You understand why we
can't go to the cops, right?

- Yeah.
- Did they hurt you?

Hey, you're safe now, okay?

- I gave him your number.
- Who?

The guy in charge. He had a gun.

- It's okay.
- I'm sorry.

It's all right.

J?

Hey.

Who were those guys?

Did they hurt you?

Well, he just put
a knife to my neck,

but they didn't...

they didn't do anything.

I'm sorry, J.

You're okay.

- It's okay. You feeling better?
- Yeah.

You know, we're never gonna
let anything happen to you.

You know that, don't you?

Thank you.

I need to talk
to J for a minute.

Why don't you go
take a nice hot shower,

and I'll have Craig bring
you some oxies, okay?

- Okay.
- Thank you, baby.

J, let's go.

Pope fill you in on
what happened?

What's Javi got on you?

Uh, Louis was this
dude, he was Javi's father,

and he used to run
with Manny and I.

We pulled a bank job.

It was supposed to be super easy,
but we had an unexpected visitor.

We had a hero
with a concealed .45.

Hero fires, hits Lou in the gut.

Lou has a shotgun,
takes hero's head off.

But Lou's already bleeding
out from the gut wound,

and he's not gonna
make it, hospital or no.

So Manny just put
him out of his misery.

And then we drove the body

to a construction site that,

I don't know, someone just knew

they were pouring a foundation
for a house the next day.

We buried him under it.

You told us Lou ran
off with the money.

Javi is threatening to go to the police
and let them know where the body is.

- So pay him.
- I tried.

- How much does he want?
- He wants 300K.

Except Jake put a gun in my
face and took off with my money.

Why the hell would
you trust Jake?

I didn't have any
options, did I?

Where'd you get 300K?

My savings.

You think he's coming back?

No, he's gotta know
we'd be waiting for him.

So, what if the
cops find the body?

It's been 20 years
it's been in the ground.

And this, this Manny guy's

- the one who shot him, so...
- With my gun.

He tossed it in with the body
and told me about it the next day.

Too late to do anything.

The cops can link
you to the gun?

Yup.

So what do you
want us to do about it?

We have to deal with Javi.

- Deal with him?
- Yes.

You were gonna pay him this
afternoon, just pay him now.

Yeah, Nicky gave him my number.

If he reaches out, maybe there's
still a way we can negotiate.

This has gone way past that now.

For you it's gone way
past that. Not for us.

They almost killed J.

But they didn't.

He's all right.

And what do want
us to do exactly? Huh?

What, you want us to hunt
down this guy with assault rifles?

For some bullshit that you did,
that has nothing to do with us?

Do you have any idea what
your life would have been like

if I took a murder rap when
you were five years old?

Yeah, well, you know, foster care
would've been better than this shit.

You think so?

I'll tell you about it sometime.

Well, J,

looks like your uncles don't really
give a damn about you, does it?

Nobody's saying that, Smurf.

You're saying that
a group of people

can come into our house
and beat the shit out of him.

We're trying to figure it
out. No one is saying that.

If that were you lying
there by the pool, -

would we even be

- having this conversation?
- We don't just kill people.

I mean, I'm not finishing this
conversation with her here,

so let's figure this
out on our own.

Just remember, Javi is
not a little kid anymore.

He's angry and unstable.

This doesn't end
until we end it.

Make up your minds.

Yeah, he's been following
her and threatening her

ever since Manny's funeral.

And you didn't say shit?

She asked me not to.

You probably should've shot his ass
when he was in the goddamn house,

'cause then maybe we
could say it was self-defense.

- Deran.
- What?

I'm just saying, if any
of us had been here,

- we wouldn't be having this problem.
- What the hell was I supposed to do?

Come on, four guys with guns?

- Yes. Yes.
- All by myself.

- That is what you do in that situation.
- Hey!

Leave the kid alone.

- I'm not killing for her, Pope.
- And you don't have to.

All right?

- We call the shots now.
- Yeah, he's right.

Look at her.

She thinks we'll do it. She
thinks we'll do anything for her.

I'll tell you one thing,
I'm not doing life in prison

for some 20-year-old bullshit
that has nothing to do with me.

Me, neither.

We move the body.
We take the leverage.

I saw the neighborhood
when I picked up Nicky.

We gotta get around the
homeowners, but we've done riskier jobs.

No, man, I steal shit for money.

- I don't kill people for money...
- Guys, if she goes down for this,

she could bring all
of us down with her.

- She won't flip.
- Oh, what is wrong with you?

What is wrong with you,
Pope? I thought you hated her.

- No one in this family is going to prison.
- Oh, yeah?

- Not if they don't have to.
- When you went to prison,

- she was relieved. She was relieved.
- Deran, shut up!

She's not going to prison.

So?

- We're not killing anyone.
- We're gonna move the body.

What?

He can't threaten you if
he doesn't have anything.

We're gonna move the body.

J's gonna be pissing blood for
weeks. This isn't just about leverage.

That's the best
you're gonna get.

And when he comes back?

If he comes back,
we will deal with it.

- And you have to pay them.
- Pay who?

Deran and Craig want to
be paid for their services.

I'm paying my sons to
keep me out of prison?

Do I have a choice?

- No.
- No.

That's a nice way
to run things, Baz.

Try and get some rest.

Hey hang back a
minute. I gotta talk to you.

I need you to take
point on this one.

Oh, she's just trying
to get in my head.

No, man, listen.

I got pulled over
this afternoon.

Yeah, I'm trying to stay calm and the
guy, he starts asking me about Cath.

Then he says he's gonna
find out what I did to her.

Man, she had a bank account
she never told me about.

She hasn't touched
it since she left.

- Jesus.
- Yeah.

Anyway, I can't
go near the body.

I'm not sure if they're
watching me or not.

Yeah.

Yeah, okay.

The cops think she's dead.

What do you think?

Yeah, I think she's dead.

Hey.

Hi.

Oh. Thanks.

I should have been here.

I'm sorry.

- Beer?
- No, no.

You know what, I'm...

I'm kind of tired.

Yeah. Uh, okay.

- I'll come and check on you later.
- Hmm-hmm.

Thanks.

How's she doing?

You think they're
gonna come back?

No. Not tonight.

Pope's been walking
around with that shotgun.

What? You think they would've
killed Smurf if she was here?

That's why he's got the shotgun.

Hey.

I'm gonna take the couch
tonight. Smurf gave J my room.

I'll sleep with Lena.

So, look, did Javi say
anything else to you?

Um...

Anything you can tell us that
would help us? Anything at all?

Smurf was supposed to
pay them, but didn't show.

They came here
looking for money.

What'd you tell them?

They had Nicky
in the other room.

I told them there was
cash behind the dryer.

That's good.

You should've told them sooner.

Don't let Smurf get you killed.

You played it right, man.

If you'd come out shooting, you
and Nicky would both be dead.

Get some sleep.

You know, I expected this halfway
bullshit from your brothers, but you...

A cop stopped
Baz this afternoon.

They think he killed Cath.

- Smurf up?
- No.

You been sitting here all night?

We need the concrete saw
and the sledgehammers back.

Okay.

You get the truck?

Yeah, I talked to
Nico. We're all good.

This is how it starts, you know.

We do this for her,

next thing you know, we're right
back here and she's running shit.

Get the tools.

Anybody want scrambled eggs?

How was the couch? Okay?

I'll see you in a
couple of hours.

Could you take
Nicky and J with you?

Javi's not coming back.

I know, but I don't think
they should be here alone.

We leave in five.

Come here.

Ally said she'd take
you to the beach.

Okay? Here you go.

Hey.

Come here.

Come here.

- I'm gonna be back tomorrow, okay?
- Okay.

Okay.

I've been gone a lot, right?

It's okay, you can say it.

- Yeah.
- Okay.

We'll do something together this
week. Just you and me. How about that?

Why?

Why? Because I'm your
dad and I want to, that's why.

- Okay.
- Okay.

I'm sorry this is so last
minute. I won't make a habit of it.

- I don't mind. See you tomorrow.
- Okay.

Javi?

Where?

All right, you guys go wait over
there. Don't touch anything. Come on.

Cops don't know anything.

If they did, you'd
already be in cuffs.

What if they arrest Baz?

Are they gonna find a body?

Then we don't have anything
to worry about, do we?

Hey, no one will
tell me anything.

What are we doing here?
What are the tools for?

Yeah.

You know, I went
for Smurf's gun.

And I would have used it. I just
couldn't figure out how to load it.

I never want to
feel like that again.

Hey. You remember when we were
kids we used to fight over the Game Boy?

Smurf would make us hit each other
over and over again till one of us quit?

Yeah.

I always used to kick your ass.

Well, you were scrappy.

No, you were huge, even when
you were six. You used to let me win.

I didn't want to kill you.

Smurf would get so pissed. She
thought I'd never learn how to fight.

She'd sic Pope on you.

Well, don't feel bad.

I was bigger than him, too.

It's funny, you know, Smurf
was always talking about

how we have to have
each other's backs.

But she loved it when we fought.

Yeah.

It's Nico.

Hey.

- What's up, man, we good?
- It's in the alley.

All right, let's go.

- Uniforms?
- In the back.

All right.

All right, so we'll drop the car off
at the airport long-term parking.

You can pick it up
tomorrow morning, okay?

No blood in my truck.

Just picking up some
old shit. Thanks, Nico.

I got a couple more
things to do in the office,

- then we'll get out of here, okay?
- All right.

Okay, so the
bullets are in the clip.

You push that in there,
all the way until it clicks.

- Hmm-hmm.
- Right, now...

Pull it up.

Keep your finger
on the side there.

Okay, now you're gonna
wanna pull back the hammer.

A bit harder, there you go.

Okay, now it's ready
to fire, so be careful.

Well, how do I aim it?

- See these white dots?
- Hmm-hmm.

You wanna line those up,

point where you
wanna shoot, okay?

Bring your elbows in. Turn
your body to the side a little bit.

There you go.

And then, when you're ready,

you just keep firing
until the clip runs out.

Thank you.

Don't let Deran
see that in here.

Put it away.

Gotta go.

That's the one.

Are you sure?

I haven't been here in 20 years. I
wasn't expecting to come back, either.

We're not going in
unless you're sure.

That's it, that's the one.

It's right next to the drainage ditch
on the southeast side of the street.

- Whose idea was this place?
- Jake's.

He was working some
construction in the neighborhood

and he knew they were
pouring the foundation.

I thought you ran that crew.

Manny shot him.

Jake buried him.

And you just watched?

I'm sorry to hear about Julia.

What the hell are
you doing, Javi?

You remember this place?

Used to smoke a
lot of shit down here.

You, me and Pope.

Yeah, I remember.

She tell you about my dad?

Yeah, she did.

What did she say?

What, "Manny did it"?

She shot him in
the back of the head,

then threw his body in a hole,

and then told me my
dad was a piece of shit

who ran out on me.

Okay, so what do you want to
do about it? You want to kill her?

'Cause we're never
gonna let that happen.

So if you want something
else, let's start negotiating.

Man, you know...

Every birthday,
Christmas, I thought, well,

"This is it. This is the year
my dad comes back for me."

And I thought 'cause she took
you in, she'd take me in, too.

Bro, I spent the last 20
years wiping Manny's ass

and doing small-time 211s in
the middle of goddamn nowhere.

Smurf seems like she's
just doing fine, man,

like she didn't lose no sleep.

So, do you want to go back to Arizona
with nothing, or do you want to get paid?

I already tried.

I asked for money.
She didn't show.

She's not running things
anymore. I can get you the money.

Keys to the kingdom, huh?

How does Pope feel about that?

Well, he doesn't feel great
about you threatening Smurf,

I'll tell you that.

Look, you took
25 from the house,

it's gonna cost at
least 10 to fix the wall,

plus the bullshit with
the kid and the girlfriend.

- Let's call it 200.
- No, no, four.

She doesn't want
to give you anything.

Dude, I can't go back to
my crew with 200. Come on.

I'm trying to help
you here, man.

It's 200 or it's nothing.
Those are your choices.

What do you wanna do?

Remember when your
dad used to get loaded

and kick the shit out of
you in front of Smurf's yard?

You've come a long way
from crying yourself to sleep

and pissing the bed, man.

Good for you.

'Cause, you know, shit didn't
turn out so well for me, or my dad.

It's all right.

You know, Manny
used to always say that

Smurf will climb over her own
kids just to keep from drowning.

You be careful, bro,
that's all I'm saying.

You're not even her kid.

So, do we have a deal?

Good.

The body's buried
along the back wall.

- How deep did you bury him?
- Just about two or three inches.

We thought the concrete would save
us, and we didn't have that much time.

- The gun with it?
- Should be.

- "Should be"?
- It is.

I'm sorry, baby, would you
give us another second, please?

I'm not stupid. I know who
you are. I know what you do.

You're right. You're a smart girl,
and we should tell you the truth.

Thanks.

But not now. Next time.

Now, do you have someplace
else you can sleep tonight?

- Yeah.
- Okay, go get packed.

- Tools?
- Yeah.

- Truck?
- Parked it down the street.

You gotta pay Javi.

Two hundred instead of three
because of what he did to J.

I know you don't like it
and you don't have to,

but it's what we gotta
do right now, I'm sorry.

And it's fair, Smurf.

You owe him.

Okay.

When?

Two hours.

Smart.

All right, let's go. I'll
meet you at the van.

Are you sure you
should go with her?

She's not going alone.

What about the cops?

- If I get a tail, I'll lose it.
- Yeah.

- Good luck.
- You, too.

So, where'd you get
the money to pay Javi?

I told you, my savings.

Hmm, that's bullshit.

You've been
skimming off our work.

I'm the only one in this family who
can see past the next goddamn party.

Okay. All right, so
time to dip back in.

Do I drive you to a
bank? How does it work?

You really think I
have more, don't you?

Jake took everything I have,
and Javi cleaned out this house.

Well, didn't you boys just come
into, uh, a bit of church money?

Smurf, you've
gotta be kidding me.

Or we could show up with
nothing and see how he takes it.

You're paying me back
before they know it's gone.

If you have to sell the
house, you're gonna do it.

- Yeah, it's clear.
- Let's go.

Hi. Good afternoon, ma'am.

Uh, there were reports
of a gas leak in the area.

We're gonna have to ask you to leave
while we make sure everything is okay.

The bruises will get worse
before they get better.

And you're gonna need
proper stitches in that leg.

I can do it for you if you want.

It's up to you.

I know you think
we should kill him.

But have you ever hurt somebody?

Really hurt them?

Doesn't feel like
you think it will.

Thank you.

Okay.

Down there on the
left. I'll get the tools.

- Got a new car?
- It's a loaner.

Challenger needs
a new transmission.

Baz, how do you know we're not
driving straight into an ambush?

He'll take the money.

Somebody following us?

Just being careful.

Yup, pipe.

Bingo! Pipe.

We got a hit.

Gun.

Shit, how much gas did
you guys pour in here?

All right, let's tear it up.

Stop.

What's going on here?

Wait here.

What's he doing here?

There's two of you.

Are we gonna have a problem?

Why don't you tell her
to get out of the car?

Javi.

I've got your money, right here.

- I want to talk with her.
- Javi.

Your dad's been
dead for 20 years.

She is never gonna
say she's sorry.

Take the money.

Yeah.

Gun.

That's it.

What, did this guy only have
one foot? We're missing one.

Shit.

Oh, man.

It's not here.

Keep digging.

We have the gun.

- Huh?
- We're not leaving without a goddamn foot.

Get out of the way.

Guys, we got a
bunch of neighbors

on the front lawn
asking questions.

Pope.

What do you want me to do?

Maybe it's not even here.

It's gotta be there.
Where else could it be?

I'm telling you, cops
aren't gonna ID a foot.

Let's just leave it.

Shut up.

Okay, well, we have about 1
5 minutes before the old lady

calls dispatch and
finds out there's no leak.

I'm going as fast as I can.

Wait.

Hey, is that it?

- There we go.
- Good job, bro.

Let's get the hell out of here.

Bag.

- Javi?
- Get out of here, go.

I really do owe you
an explanation, huh?

You know all that bullshit
about me not having any room?

That was just silly.

I didn't take you in
because you were worthless.

You were stupid and
angry and impulsive.

Just like your father.

Jesus Christ!

Bury the body over the fence.

Get rid of your gun.

Here you go.

That's it. That's
all you're getting.

- Is it all in there?
- It's there.

The other 50 is in a
building on Ventura.

It's called the
Lisbon. Mailbox 5 C.

Get it out of there tonight, and
get yourself out of California.

Well, we're all done in there.

We had to, uh, dig up part
of the floor to get to the pipe,

but, uh, dispatch will give you a
call, send someone out to patch it up.

But thank you so much,
you've been very kind.

Don't expect me to help you
when this comes back to bite us!

I'm not doing it!

You wouldn't do what
needed to be done.

- I found someone who would.
- We have the body!

He was gonna take the money!

I mean, what?

He wasn't gonna stop, Baz.

Oh, my God, Smurf,
you don't know that.

- You don't...
- His own crew knew that.

They wanted the money,
he just wanted revenge.

And it wasn't very difficult

to convince Deek
to take him out.

I mean, come on, Smurf.
We grew up with that kid.

He was like family to us.

And "like family" isn't family.

Yeah.

You are family.

Come on.

So, what did you say?

"There's an eight-foot
hole in your ground. Sorry"?

No, I told her, uh, dispatch
would give her a call.

We're uh, gonna send over
Ronny to come fix it tomorrow.

You know, Fat
Ronny, our best guy.

Everything all right?

What do you want
us to do with this?
