Animal Kingdom (2016–…): Season 4, Episode 6 - Into the Black - full transcript

Smurf learns of a new threat to the family. Craig tracks down Frankie. Deran makes a dangerous decision so he can protect Adrian.

That's 150 grand
less than we agreed on.

I spoke to Rahul.

He needs a couple of weeks
to get the balance.

Your watch. Are you joking?

Pay your bills, shithead.

Adrian's working with Jack.

You should have told me
he was your boyfriend.

Deran Cody.
He's got a record.

I know you've been
moving shit for Jack.

Yeah, and that is my business,
so back off!

Come on, badass.
Get up.



Hey. Can I crash here tonight?

Do you think people can change?

Janine's got an idea for a job.

There's a hippie compound
out in Laguna Beach.

They're sitting on
a ton of cash.

Your mother was diagnosed

with an aggressive
and advanced melanoma.

She has... cancer.

What about my brothers?

What are you gonna tell them?

I'm not.

And neither are you.

Here you go.

Thank you, baby.

State Police have got
someone talking to them

about you and your boys.

Who?

Somebody close to your family.

Where did you hear that?
I was The Cove tonight

with some of the guys
who were still on the force.

What do they got?

I don't know.
Probably not much yet.

Yet?

What are you waiting for?

You waiting for them to show up
at my door with a warrant?

Is that what you want, Neal?

Take it easy.

If I start asking questions,
people are gonna get suspicious.

Not my problem, baby.

I'll find out what I can, okay?

Is there any chance of this
blowing back on me?

Anybody else
know about our arrangement?

Any of your boys?

Your deep concern for my welfare
is very touching, Neal.

Come on, Smurf.

I'm giving you the heads-up,
aren't I?

I always protect my people,
baby.

I'm not your people.

Course you are.

I cooperated.

I'm supposed to be done now.

You're not done
until I say you're done.

Next time he calls you,
you answer him.

I don't know what you think
I can help you with.

Deran's not involved
in anything illegal.

He... He's a guy who owns a bar.

Deran's mother
had him and his three brothers

pulling robberies for her ever
since they were in junior high.

Well, he hates his mom.

And maybe she did have him
doing stuff as a kid,

but he doesn't want
anything to do with her now.

If that's what he's telling you,
then he's lying.

So, I looked at your sheet...

got a couple of
dipshit offenses as a minor,

and I don't know
what kind of jam you're in

where you're smuggling coke,

but you're not a bad guy,
Adrian.

The Codys are dangerous.

They're violent criminals.

Including your boyfriend.

You recognize this guy?

It's Benito Oxcama,
they call him "Ox"?

Cops found his body
in a Mexican landfill.

He's been dead awhile.

Ox goes back a ways with Deran.

They spent time together
in juvie.

Looks Ox maybe
outlived his usefulness.

Deran's not who you think he is.

If you ever lie for him,

you ever say
he's somewhere he wasn't,

that makes you an accessory...

to assault, robberies,
and murders...

all of it.

You can help yourself here...

Just don't wait too long

'cause we're moving
on this thing.

We're taking down Jack Muntean's
warehouse today,

make sure
you're nowhere near it.

Hey.

Where were you?

I went for a run.

At 6:00 in the morning?

I'm in training.

I thought we were done
with this shit.

I went for a run.

That's bullshit.

Are you cheating on me?

Yeah. Yes.
I-I'm cheating on you.

Um...

I meet an elderly gentleman

under the pier
every morning at 6:00 a.m.,

and I-I got the day started
with a toothless blowie.

I couldn't sleep, alright?

Got the North Shore
coming up in a coupl'a weeks.

I actually have
a decent rating now,

so I'm feeling like
I got something to lose.

Okay?

Alright.

I'm gonna up and shower.

Morning, baby.

Morning.

What happened to your face?

I got sucked punched outside
a club by some drunk asshole.

Did you?

You might want to put
a little aloe on it.

I need you to do something
for me, J.

Okay.

Someone is talking to the cops.

Someone very close to us.

Have you boys been cautious?

Who else knew about
the Frankie job?

No one, I don't think.

We used to be much more careful
about who we trusted.

Now, I need you to find out
who your uncles are talking to.

And phones.
We all need new phones.

Go out, buy a bunch of burners,
and just pass 'em out.

Pope and Angela...

They seem pretty close.

If someone is talking,

youare gonna handle it.

You want to know what it
feels like to be in charge, J?

This is what it feels like
to be in charge.

"Crest"?

You need someone to drive you?

Mnh-mnh.

Aren't you supposed to
feel sick after?

Hey, baby.

Want me to fix you some eggs?

Uh, no thank you.
I'm good.

I got to go.

It's hard to stay sober
in this house.

Can't reach for a can of soup
or a cup of coffee

without coming across an oxy
stash, a fifth of Jack...

Jesus, what happened to you?

I got in a fight.

I'll be fine.

Why are you here?

Needed a place to crash
until I get back on my feet.

And this was the best place
you could think of?

Why are youhere?

Your mom lived in poverty to
keep you away from these people.

My mom lived in poverty
because she was a junkie.

But you know
all about that, right?

She was an addict.

She was sick.

And I did the best
I could to help her.

And now what?

Are you helping Pope?

Pope and me got history.

Smurf owes you, J.

I came here for you.

You're following her.

Smart.

I don't need your help.

Yeah, you do.

Who else can you trust?

What's up?

So, Smurf wants me
to spy on you guys.

She what?

She wants me to look into
who everybody's talking to.

She's thinks we're not keeping
secrets as well as we should.

Why would she think that?

She thinks somebody's
talking to the cops.

What'd she say?

She wants us all
to use burner phones.

And she wants me to "handle"
the person that's talking.

She's just playing you.

If she actually thought that there
were someone talking to the cops

she would call us all together,
get us talking,

and probably send us out
for blood.

Where is she right now?

At the house.

Yeah, see? How worried
could she actually be?

If she thought
there was a threat,

she'd be out asking questions,

talking to her cops,
sending Pope after somebody.

It's all good.

So why did she send me out
for the phones?

I don't know.

Honestly, she's probably pissed that
we pulled that job with Frankie,

and this is some kind of
bullshit, petty revenge.

I don't know.

Just stay clear of her today.

Hand out the phones.

Go back tonight,

tell her you talked to everybody
and didn't find anything.

We pulled a job with
someone we know nothing about.

Look, man, how many times are you
gonna let her pull this shit with you?

This is what she wants.

She wants us to
drive ourselves crazy

trying to figure out
if there's actually a threat.

It's bullshit. She's not wrong.

Pulling the job with Frankie
was sloppy.

Okay, you want to bring that up
with Craig?

That's what I thought.

If you want to keep chasing
bullshit for Smurf,

that's fine with me.

Hey.

What's going on with you two?

You know,
she treats you like shit,

but it's you she comes to
when she needs something.

It's always been that way.

Well, I'm the oldest.

It's more than that.

Do you remember
when Scotty Yuhas

pulled Julia's bathing suit off,
wouldn't give it back to her.

She had to run across
the whole beach

in front of everybody
just to grab her towel.

You beat the shit out of Scotty.

Julia was furious that
it made things worse for her.

But Scotty never tried
anything like that again.

I got to train.

Sure.

- Yo.
- Yo.

You whipping up some eggs?

Yep.

Well, J's got a burner phone
for you.

A burner, why? I don't know.

Uh, Smurf's got him
jumping through hoops

'cause she thinks someone's
talking to the cops about us.

Poor kid.

Uh, you want some coffee?

Yeah, sure.
Here.

You haven't heard anything,
right?

What, about someone
talking to the cops?

No.

Why, you think it's got
something to do with, uh,

that job we pulled with Frankie
or what?

Uh, I think Smurf's
jerking us around

because we pulled the job
with Frankie.

Okay. But I don't know.

You think she'd have the kid
doing all this shit

if she thought it was real?

Yeah, well...

Is someone crashing
on the couch?

Yeah, me.

Did you hear about Jack?
Hey.

Hi.How are you?

DEA raided Jack's place
this morning.

Well, yeah, you surprised?

He's been moving blow and meth
overseas.

His dumb ass got greedy.
Yeah, and he's no genius.

Oh.
More customers for me, though.

Are those eggs for me?

Yeah. Do you mind
if I pass today?

My heartburn's just acting up.

All good.Thanks.

See you later.

Hey, you want eggs? Thanks.

It's good to see Renn.

Yeah, she, uh,
she needed a place to crash.

She kept it.

The baby? Yeah.

You want some hot sauce?

It used to be a dairy farm,

but the commune's been there
for years.

They're hippies? They're drug dealers.

They preach that no possessions
unity of man bullshit,

but they're about the money.

There's at least 10 grand around
all the time

for when society collapses
from commercial excess,

all that hippie shit.

There's a dirt road

that cuts through the woods
behind the compound.

That's our way in.Mm.

Thank you... Mm-hmm.

...Pam.

You're welcome... mm...

Jake.

You look like a Jake.

Is that a good thing?

Uh-huh.

You wanna pay attention?

I can do both.

Security.
Security?

Yeah. Thought this was supposed to be
an easy score.

It will be.

If we're gonna risk
people shooting at us,

we might as well hit
another bank

where we know what to expect.

She didn't say
there was no security,

she just said
it's nothing we can't handle.

It'll be a little tight.

Alright, are you a...

Are you a hard stick?

Do your veins roll?

How would I know? Hmm.

Ah.

I'll be with you in a sec,
Mrs. Morris.

Trexall's a good one,

might make you feel
a little nauseous, though.

So, let me know if you
start to feel dizzy or faint.

It isn't supposed to
cause hair loss,

in case
you were worrying about that.

I wasn't.

You can relax.

Is that your Jag
in the parking lot?

Yes, ma'am.

I can tell, suits you.

I'm stuck with a minivan.

I hate it,
but at least it's red.

I've been dying
for something new,

but my grandkids need
something they can all fit in.

I have six.

Jack's place got raided.

Is that gonna blow back on you?

I stopped doing runs for him,
so I should be fine, right?

That depends how long they've
been investigating him,

and if he's willing
to make a deal.

Don't they usually arrest
everyone at the same time?

Smurf thinks
someone's talking to the cops.

Really?

She got J running around
passing out burner phones.

Everybody's
on high alert right now.

What do you think?

You think it's true?

I don't know.

Jack knows we're together.

There's no way
that he says anything

that sends Smurf or Pope
his way.

Cops have been on him
for a long time.

Hey.

Has anybody talked to you?

No.

Just be careful.

Okay.

I'm serious.
Yeah.

I'll see you tonight.

♪ You're leaving with snakes,
and I'm leaving with tits ♪

♪ You're never around
when I get my fix ♪

Really, Craig?

Wouldn't return my calls.

Figured this way you'd show up.

You screwed me.

I screwed you?

You went behind my back
to Smurf.

You stole Rahul's bike
and his watch.

What the hell were you thinking?

He owed me money.

Now we're even.

He shorted 150 grand,

so you steal a $200,000 bike
and a million dollar watch?

How is that even?

You know how hard it was

to find a buyer who was
willing to pay more than 30K

for that piece of shit watch?

You sold it already?

Yeah. Bike, too.

Get the watch back.

And how am I
supposed to do that?

Figure it out.

You burned an entire network
for me.

No one connected to Rahul
will work with me now. Yeah?

Well, now I got Smurf up my ass
about pulling an outside job.

You should never
have kept her in the dark

about the job
in the first place.

How do you think
that makes me look?

Who cares?
I do.

She's your mom,
she'll get over it.

I need her to know
I'm a professional.

So that's what this is about?

All that talk about
how I'm good at what I do

and how you brought this to me
and not the Codys...

and you were just
trying to get in with Smurf.

That's not all
I was trying to do.

I meant what I said about you.

Did I mess up?

You won't even look at me.

Did I say too much before?

No.

Where are you going?

I have a fight.

Can I go with you?

I won't be in the way.
I-I promise.

We're all being
optimistic here, right?

But the reality is

we may not be around forever.

I know I've done my job well.

I wasn't one of those women
who coddled her children,

but they still depend in me,
Grandma.

The child care costs are crazy,
and they both need to work.

No way they could survive
without Molly's income, too.

Jeff works at the base.

Long hours, the overtime
is great, though.

How 'bout you, Janine?
Any kids?

A-Are you okay?

What are you doing? I'm leaving.

But you're not done yet.
You bet your ass I'm done.

I'm gonna take this one, okay?

We're better off with small arms
on this job.

Let the other guys
carry the heavy stuff.

I can handle it. Ain't about that.

Hey, I still don't know
exactly what we're walking into.

I've got faith in your plan.

But if we end up
having to haul ass,

I don't want you lugging a gun
that weighs as much as you do.

Here you go.

That's you.

Should you still be dealing?

Hey, you know,
Jack getting busted

means the DEA's gonna be around.

Probably a good idea to lay low.
Unh-unh.

Jack was putting shit on planes
like he's Pablo Escobar.

I've a select group of customers
I sell to.

I know them, they know me.

You realize a kid named Crest

is gonna get the shit
kicked of him at school, right?

That list
was supposed to be private.

Well, then you shouldn't leave
it out in the open, then.

Oh, is that where I left it?

Huh.

You know, if you get busted,

you'll be giving birth
to little Colgate in prison.

It's Crest like a wave,

asshole.

You'll need to come up

with something to do for cash
when it's born anyway.

I am?
Right?

No, really? Like what?

Well, you can't have a kid
toddling around all this shit.

Mm. So, serve cocktails
at the Marriott?

This is what I do, Craig.

This is how I make my money.

It's not like I have
any other skills.

Okay.

Are we going in?

I don't really want
you to see me like this.

It's... It's gonna be bad.

You mean, like, bloody?

Sometimes.

I can handle a little blood.

You don't scare me.

You're not gonna scare me.

Wait here.

Thanks.

Can I help you? How you doing?

Um, I'm supposed to
pick up my grandmother

from her appointment
this afternoon.

I left my phone at home.

I was wondering
what time she'd be done.

Sure, what's the name?

Janine Cody.

Uh, she left already.

She did?

Yeah, she cut her chemo short
toady.

Left a few minutes ago.

Uh, maybe she called an Uber.

Yeah.
Yeah, she must have.

Okay. Thank you.

You ready?

You ready?

Come on. Fight!

Remember me?

Open your mouth.

How does it feel to have
something in your mouth?

Hmm?

She had a lot of shit
in her mouth.

Alright, that's it.
Let's go!

Back up, back up!

Drop it. Now.

Clear!
Back to the van.

We got to go!

What are you doing?

Ah! Shit!

Let's go.

I did this to you.

Go! Go now!

Go, go.

Go get in the shower,
I'll get you some ice.

So where'd she go?

Nowhere interesting...

went to a nail salon
then got groceries.

Okay.

Here you go.

She has cancer.

She won't let me
tell my brothers.

We're closed.

I said we're closed!

Jack Muntean got busted.

It's not a good time right now.

The cops raided his place today.

Yeah, I heard.

Did your brothers hear?

What about your mom?

Come on.

'Cause you know
who didn't get busted?

Your boyfriend.

You got something to say,
just say it.

Jack's going away,
Adrian's free and clear.

So either he's working
with the cops

or it's easier for someone
to think that he is, right?

Someone like Pope.

What do you think Pope would do

if he found out Adrian
was talking to the cops?

What do you want?

$20,000.

Okay.

And this ends here?

I give you my word.

Sorry it had to go down
like this.

I wish we could've pulled some more
jobs like the old days, you know?

But you don't wanna do that.

I got to eat, too, man.

Hey.

Hey.

So, it's a boy, huh?

What?

Well, Logan...

Max, Ford, Crest...

They're all boys names.

Yeah...

it's a boy.

Got any blow left?

Why?
How much?

Some.

I'll take all of it.

What happened?

Smurf heard
someone was talking to the cops.

Him?

I confronted him about it,
and he came at me with a gun.

The cops get anything from him?

No.

Damn it.

Well, we'll put
in the board bag.

We'll carry him in my truck.

There's bleach in the cabinet
next to the sink.

Get it. Oh, and we got to
get rid of your gun.

Yeah.

His gun, too.

Get the bleach.

I want a name.

I'm working on it.

Work faster.

Well?

Nobody's talking to anyone...

except the one
we already know about.

I'll take care of her.

No more mistakes, baby.

We don't have the time.

Let's do it. Come on. Here we go.

And here it comes.

Oh, shit.

I know, I know, stop crying.

There we go.

Look at that... good as new.

Shit.

That's why he hit banks.

They got guns at banks, too.

Yeah, but it's not their money.

Lot less likely they'd use them.

How much do we usually make
when we hit a bank?

Hmm?

Two or three grand.

We made $8,000 today.

So, I'm gonna call this
a success.

Janine, we need to talk.

How deep is supposed to be?

Just dig until
you can't see out of the hole.

This is new for you, right?

It's weird, you know?

I thought I'd feel something,
but I don't.

I don't feel anything.

It's the adrenaline.

You'll feel it tomorrow.

Were you gonna blow
that guy's brains out?

No.

Did you see the look
on his face, though?

Who is he?

A friend of my mom's
from when I was younger.

So it was personal?

Yes.

Hmm.

Jobs can't be personal.

You make 'em that way,
shit goes south.

If there's someone
you owe a beating...

Or, shit, if there's someone
you need to kill,

just tell me and we'll go do it.

But don't bring it into a job.

We have to trust each other.

You're either in 100%
or you're out.

It means
you never lie to me again.

I'm in.

You just get home?

Can I join you?

Since when do you have to ask?

I love you.
