Animal Kingdom (2016–…): Season 3, Episode 10 - Off the Tit - full transcript

When are we, uh,
gonna see our cut?

J's kind of holding all
our ends at the moment.

J's holding our money
for safekeeping?

Yes, that's correct.

Yo, I got you, I
got you, I got you!

He needs a hospital.

No. No, no. It's
a gunshot wound.

- The ER will call the police.
- He's not gonna make it!

Linc: How is he?

Deran: You know, the one
decent person in my life,

and you... You...
chase him away.



I just fixed your mess!

DCFS has determined

this living arrangement is
not in Lena's best interest.

- We're going to remove
Lena at this time.
- Pope: No.

- She's not going anywhere.
- Mr. Cody.

It's in her best
interests... And yours...

To not make this scary for her.

You're gonna go with
these people, okay?

I'm... I'm gonna come get you.

Don't be scared.

Better be good news, Pete.

Well, there ain't
no sign of him yet.

Then why are you calling me?

Look, the early bird
gets the worm, you know?

I just wanna let
you know I'm on it.

Tina followed them
out to the desert.

Didn't see Marco.

Going back today
with a couple of guys.

Don't come back without him.

Oh, hey, baby.

Hey.

Did you spend the night?

Yeah.

[Smooch]

Did your friend stay over?

- Who?
- Mia.

Oh, no.

She's welcome anytime.

Thanks.

I'd like to meet her.

I'm sure you would.

J: You look like shit.

Are you sleeping in your car?

Occasionally.

What, you don't make
enough at the garage

to rent your own place?

I'm saving up for a
mansion in the Hills.

Did you figure out
what you're gonna do?

About Smurf?

All right, dude. Why am I here?

You can shovel that shit
in your face without me.

- [Chair scrapes]
- No, wait.

I just...

I need you to find
out what Pete's up to.

Why would I do that?

Just what he's doing for Smurf.

I heard her talking to him
on the phone this morning.

Something's up.

We gonna be partners?

No.

[Scoffs]

So, then, what's in it for me?

I could rent you a place, maybe.

Unless you'd rather
keep sleeping in your car.

Linc: Thank you, baby.

[Indistinct chatter]

Hey, hey, Linc!

- Yo, that guy
that got shot, man...
- No. No.

- Keep your voice down.
- Look, man,
that was my friend,

not... not Deran's, all right?

Deran doesn't even know him.

I don't care.

Look, I caused the
shitstorm, man, all right?

- I screwed up.
- [Sighs]

Dude, you did me a favor.

Seriously, that's not my life.

W-We're straight. I'm
not gonna say anything.

Look, Deran likes
you, all right, man?

I don't want to
ruin that for him.

I have a patient.

[Sighs]

Hey, will you... will
you just think about it?

It's about time you started
chipping in for groceries.

Yeah.

[Coffee pours]

How long you planning
on hanging around?

[Exhales] I don't know.

Probably a while.

- Spend some more quality
time with Deran.
- [Dish clatters]

- [Drawer opens, closes]
- Him and me are
really hitting it off.

I mean, it goes deep, 'cause...

we even got the same haircut.

Is that so?

You know, I never knew
haircuts were hereditary.

[Mug clatters]

I hope you're not planning
on staying here, baby.

Nope. Gettin' my own place.

- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

First and last month's
rent, security deposit?

You got all that cash?

Yeah, I got it.

Oh, yeah.

- From the job, right.
- Yep.

Morning.

Hey!

[Dish clatters]

[Coffee pours]

I'm going for a swim,

and then I'm
gonna smoke a joint.

You're welcome to join me
once you're done reminiscing.

- [Door slides closed]
- "Reminiscing"... That's an
interesting way to put it.

So the boys gave you your
cut of the money already, huh?

No, but they will.

[Chuckles]

You were always
such a trusting man.

Yeah. And then I met you.

You're never gonna see
a penny of that money.

Yeah, I will.

Honor among thieves.

Shit like that, huh?

Now, if you want me to talk
to them for you, I can do that.

No, no. I don't want you
talking to them, okay?

Nobody hates you
more than those boys.

Really?

With the possible
exception of me.

You raised some smart kids,

and they know not

[Exhales deeply]

You're not gonna screw

No.

Okay. I'm sorry I even asked.

You just know how she is.

I just... I spend a

I'm tryin'.

Yeah.

You're not gonna

Me, too. I think it's...

Which means, you know...

[Exhales sharply]

I'm gonna need

Yeah, and you'll get your cash.

Yeah, but, like, I need it...

I'm gonna need it now, dude.

I gotta, like, put a,

I... I know, but J is in
charge of this job, okay?

Every time I talk to
you about money,

that kid's Goddamn
name comes up.

Because, Billy, that's
how we work, okay?

Someone is in
charge of the cash,

and then they launder it,

and then they dole it
back out to everybody else

so they don't go spending it all

- and end up on a cop's radar
or some shit.
- Okay.

Okay, that's just how we work.

Why don't you just
give me J's number

so I can talk to him directly?

Hey.

So, what, you want to see

This place is for sale.
Think I might buy it.

So you dragged me

to talk about
commercial real estate?

Well, you need money.

I need someone to
take care of this place.

You want to run cash
through this place?

Why not?

'Cause it runs on quarters.

It's gonna take you forever.

$15,000 a month.

Okay.

Laundering money
through a laundromat.

That's kind of poetic.

[Chuckles]

There's something else
that I might need you to do.

[Indistinct conversations]

You know, I might have
fixed things with Linc.

I went by and talked to him.

I felt bad, man,
but you know what?

- I think he might
be coming around.
- Stop, okay?

- I didn't like the guy.
- You like him.

No, I don't. You like him, okay?

Maybe you should date him.

Wearing his stupid hats and
taking him surfing and shit.

You know what?

Just... I... I don't
need your help, okay?

I don't need your help.

Renn's pregnant.

No. No, it's... it's

Okay, good.

Well, you dodged a

my hips, of my hips ♪♪

♪♪ Will your lover caress
you the way that I did? ♪♪

He cleared out the bar safe.

♪♪ I did, I did, I did ♪♪

I knew it.

♪♪ Will you notice
my charm... ♪♪

If you knew it, why
didn't you say anything?

Because there are a lot
of things about your father

I didn't want you to know.

Like what?

That he actually wanted me?

'Cause I know that.

I know he wanted to take
me with him when I was little.

He did.

He did take you with him.

He called me eight hours later

and told me I could get
you back for $1 million.

♪♪ Will he treat you like
shit just the way that I did? ♪♪

He wound up settling for
$600 and a bag of smack.

♪♪ I don't blame you ♪♪

♪♪♪♪

Some people just aren't
meant to be parents.
