Animal Kingdom (2016–…): Season 5, Episode 10 - Relentless - full transcript

- One grand a month.
- I'm worth more than that.

One of you is sending
money to Indonesia.

Livengood's using
it as probable cause.

You'd want to know before
he drops a warrant, right?

Renn left and took Nick.

- She'll come back.
- I don't know.

You didn't see the
look on her face.

You sending money to Adrian?

The guy I use is untraceable.

What guy?

Guy over at the
liquor store on Ditmar.



I give him cash,

his connection in Jakarta
gives Adrian the money.

There's no trace.

I'm Billy, by the way.

Nice to meet you, Billy.

Taking her for a run
down to Mexico next week.

- You should come.
- I can't.

I've had a few
things go sideways.

I'm down a few contacts,

and it's harder to make
things happen that way.

J's the one who approached
me about the fence.

So why are you here?

You gonna kick me 30% of your take
between Pendleton and National City.

Deal.



Get out.

Please don't do this.

Hey! You can't
leave me out here!

Parker Freeman.
From Sun of a Beach.

I think there may have been
some confusion with my liquor order.

I just want my shit back.

Trying to pull some shit on me?

- What...
- That you were trying to set me up.

Wait a minute. I don't know what
you're talking about. Who showed up?

DEA. Livengood.

The only thing this guy
seemed to care about

was Deran.

How's the hand?

Better than their faces.

I got an idea for a job.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah, you... You
know what a hawala is?

No.

So, say you wanna send
money to another country, right?

No record.

You pay this guy, the hawala.

He's got another guy
in the other country

basically sitting on cash.

He sends that guy a text
with a code word and then...

The person you're
sending the money to

shows up with the code
word and collects the cash.

Yeah.

It's like an underground
Western Union.

Okay.

Jess, Adrian's sister, she was
using one to send him money.

Is she still doing it?

No.

So, what's the job?
We rip off this hawala?

Uh...

We'll talk about it later.

I got some bullshit I
gotta deal with at the bar.

Is there anything
I can check out?

Uh...

Yeah, there's a guy that works
out of the Aero Mart on Ditmar.

Maybe you can go over
there and check out security.

All right.

All right. I'll see you later.

Your truck's on fire!

Your truck is on fire!

What the hell?

Now, turn around.

Oh, God damn it.

Yeah, you get it.
Let's take a walk.

Nice and easy.

All right. Keep it up.

Say hi to my friends.

Nice truck.

What you got, big guy?

There it is. Cute gun, Sally.

Take his glasses off.

I can't see without my glasses.

No shit.

Cross your legs and
make yourself comfortable.

Whoo! Bingo, baby.

Goddamn druggie
freak, sons of bitches.

Here we go.

Top of the line VCR, baby.

Yeah.

Rendezvous back at your place?

Yeah, sure.

Uh, I can't, I
gotta meet Cheryl.

Uh, Cheryl kicked you out, Jake.

We're meeting up to talk.

Hey, it's fine. Leave him alone.

You can help me in the
morning, can't you, Manny?

Yeah, no problem.

Hey, yo, this place
is friggin' dope.

Hey, why doesn't
your brother live here?

Broken heart.

Why are you here?

You heard from Renn?

Not even a text.

What'd you do?

What'd I do?

Yeah, you must have
done something, right?

Would suck if your kid has
to grow up with a stepdad.

There wouldn't
be a stepdad, man.

Mine kicked me out after he
caught me goin' through his stash.

Thanks for letting
us crash here, dude.

Yeah, well, if you want to stay,

how about you just
stop talking, all right?

What's up?

I got to get rid of this truck.

It's going to be worth
at least 40 grand, right?

I can't sell it.

Some shit went
down in the desert.

What about the engine?

I don't wanna take any chances.

You want me to
take care of this?

No, I got it.

All right.

What's up, amigos?

I got VCRs, still in the box.

How much?

$400.

Hey, that's half off retail.

Hey, you got any of that,
uh... That X-rated stuff?

Hell yeah.

Buy a machine,
I'll throw in a tape.

$375.

Come on, man, you're killing me.

All right, come on, $375.

All right.

See that pretty girl over there?

She'll take care of you.

Here you go.

Jailhouse Moms for you.

And for you...

Let's go with Rhonda
Goes to Vegas.

Oh.

That one has a decent story.

- Thanks.
- All right.

Have fun, boys.

Well, that's it for this place.

I don't know where
else in Irvine to hit up?

No, it's fine. We're done. I'm
gonna keep this one for the kids.

Pricey gift.

Yeah, but worth every
penny if it shuts 'em up.

Here you go.

It's all there.

I know it is.

You gonna take Jake his cut?

Give it to his wife?

No. No need.

He'll come sniffing around as
soon as Cheryl kicks him out again.

I'll see you later.

All right.

Whoa.

What's going on?

Liquor board?

They just showed up and
started taking all the booze.

Excuse me. What's the deal here?

- You the owner?
- Yeah.

We got orders to
confiscate your inventory.

And why is that?

It's all in there.

What are you talking about?
This doesn't tell me shit.

Hold on. Whoa, whoa. You
got to let me read this first, man.

Hey, you interfere,
you're getting arrested.

That's bullshit! I'm up
to date on all my permits!

Take it up with the board.

It's those assholes from Sun of
a Beach down the street, huh?

All the information on your
hearing date is in the summons.

Shit.

They can just shut
you down like this?

Yeah, the liquor
board, they're low rent.

You give them $10, they'll
suck off their own fathers.

Receipt for your inventory.

You're shut down
till the hearing.

Have a nice day.

Hi, I'd like to send some money.

No problem. We do Western
Union and money orders.

Actually, I'm looking for
something a little more, uh, informal.

I think you have
the wrong address.

You've been
helping out my sister.

She comes in here and sends
money to our brother in Indonesia.

I just want to send
him some, too.

My sister's name is Jess.

And our brother's
name is Adrian.

We don't do names.

I told your sister that.
And now I'm telling you.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

What's your rate?

Five percent.

For sending or receiving?

Both.

Great. Well, I'm selling my car,
so I'll have 20 grand next week.

Too much.

Uh, ten?

A thousand dollars, max.

I'll pay your higher rate.
Make it worth your time.

Look...

I handle old ladies in New Delhi
getting grocery money from their sons.

Or people like your sister
sending 500 bucks at a time.

My friend,

we're in the Aero Mart.

Yeah. Thanks.

Candice, open up!

Look, I know she's in there!

Candice!

She's not here.

Oh, bullshit.

Renn?

I'm telling you, not here.

Then where is she?

She called me, said she was going
some place to get her thoughts together.

Which is where?

Somewhere away from you.

Renn?

Look, he's my son, and I have
a right to know where he is.

You got a look around.

Now leave.

Tell me where he is.

You're high right now.

This is why I wanted
the baby with me.

Oh, so that's what
this is about, isn't it?

This is about my daughter coming to
her senses and getting away from you.

- Pope.
- What's up, Ralphie?

I need to lose this truck.

Sorry, man.

Can't help this time.

What's up?

Can't do business with you.

To be honest,

can't even talk to
you, or your brothers.

Why is that?

No, tell me why.

You got heat on you, dude.

Bullshit.

It came from Pete.

The DEA?

He says we're supposed to stay
away from the Codys for a while.

Take the truck, Ralphie.

Get off my lot.

So it went

The children lost their minds

Beggin' for forgiveness

Was such a waste of time

And the bullets start to fly

And the bough's about to break

When you hear them cry

It's too much for me to take

They said the world does not

Belong to you

You are not the king

I am not the fool

They said the world
does not belong to you

It don't belong to you

It belongs to me

They said the world
does not belong to you

It belongs to me

Hey, Max, I've got your cut.

I boosted a bunch
of tools from a Sears

and I stuck up the night
manager of the video arcade.

What about those video machines
you were slinging out of your car?

That was in Irvine.

What? That's
outside of your turf.

My what?

You said to me
Pendleton to National City.

Irvine's outside of that.

And what do I look like to
you? A goddamn Thomas guide?

You live in Oceanside,
you pay me tax.

Get me the rest of it.

You like living
dangerously, blondie?

Long time no see.

Yeah, I've been down
in Mexico, on business.

How you been?

Busy.

So it seems.

You know, you're
going at Max all wrong.

There's an art to
handling hard cases.

Really?

- You can't be so mouthy.
- Oh.

You're telling me
not to be so mouthy?

Mouthy is one of my
areas of expertise.

Oh, Jesus.

You know what?
It so happens that

I might be in need
of a man's services.

My van over in lot C.

No.

Come home with me.

Hi, my name is Deran Cody.
You guys shut me down today.

Didn't give me any citation
or warning or nothing.

Did you pay the renewal
on your liquor license?

Yeah, they just came in
and started taking all my shit.

The board can suspend your license
at any time if you break the rules.

Okay. Well, I'm not
breaking any rules.

This isn't about breaking rules.
This is about some assholes

- Language.
- That opened up a bar down the street.

They are too pussy to do
anything about it to my face.

So now they're making
up some bullshit,

they come to you and you
guys are helping them out.

K-O-D-Y?

C-O-D-Y. My name's right there.

Hold on. I'll find it.

This is what they do.
They come down from LA,

they open up these bullshit
businesses, they kick out the locals,

then all the rent prices go
up. I'm sick of it. It's bullshit!

We got a problem out here?

No, there's no problem.

If I tell the hearing judge
that you came down here

- threatening people...
- I'm not threatening anybody.

Here it is. Notice
of suspension.

"Complaint initiated as a
result of a pending investigation.

Department referral
by Agent Livengood."

Damn, son, looks like you
done pissed off the wrong people.

They raided my bar.

They?

Liquor board.

All right, do I look like I
work for the liquor board now?

No, the DEA asked them to do it.

And the agent in
charge is Livengood.

Aren't you supposed to give us
the heads up on this kind of shit?

- Isn't that what we're paying you for?
- They didn't come through us.

If I had known, I would
have told you, I swear.

You said Livengood?

Livengood's a Fed. They
don't have to go through us.

All right, so how do I
get him off my back?

Were you doing anything through
your bar that could hang you up?

- Taxes or underage drinking, anything?
- No, no.

No, everything's legit.

All right. Well, if it
keeps coming up empty,

it's gonna get harder
for him to get it inspected,

and the courts will cooperate
so he'll move on eventually.

No, not eventually. I
need to work, okay?

I can't work with this guy on my ass.
You got to do something about this.

What you want me to do?

I don't know, cop shit!

Okay, look, there's a liaison.

It's a guy who coordinates
between the Feds and Oceanside PD.

I can tell him I heard a rumor the
DEA is pulling some cowboy shit.

He's not gonna like a Fed
closing down a local business

without going through him.

And that's it? That'll do it?

Yeah, I mean, it's going
to rein him in a little bit.

But really, if I were you, I'd think
about giving the DEA what they want.

Yeah, if I were you,

I'd do your goddamn job if
you wanna keep getting paid.

Pete around?

No.

- No?
- No.

When will he be back?

I don't know. What do you need?

Well, I need to talk to Pete.

About what?

About shutting his mouth!

You wanna get back in that
truck and drive away, cabrón?

I'mma coming back
here 'til he talks to me.

Yeah, well, Pete doesn't
have shit to say to you.

Nobody does.

Nobody does.

You tell Pete, if he hurts
my family's business,

I'll hurt his.

Mmm-hmm.

Yeah.

Gotta admit, this isn't what I thought
you were inviting me over here for.

Well, maybe you ought
to use your big head

more than your little head.

What's your name, again?

Billy.

Local entrepreneur.

Does that mean you hook up VCRs?

Yeah, I got my
fingers in a lot of pies.

But this video stuff
is child's play to me.

Helped to sort the AV system of

Bob Cacchione's crash
pad in Hollywood Hills.

Views from downtown to
the ocean, gold curtains...

You know what?

You kids wanna run down
to the vending machine,

and get some snacks
while I work on this?

Okay.

Oh.

Here.

Get that regular popcorn, though.
None of that cheddar shit, all right?

And some Bonkers.

- Get me some Bonkers.
- Okay.

Sorry about the cash.
I paid my mom's rent

- and I forgot to swing by the bank.
- All right, shut up.

Take those ridiculous pants off.

Where's Craig?

Texted him.

Renn took off.

With the baby?

Why?

It's pretty messed up
taking a kid from his dad.

Well, we don't know
what's really going on.

What's going on at your bar?

I went over there earlier
looking for you and it was closed.

Yeah, Livengood, uh...

Got the old liquor board to
come by and shut me down.

DEA guy?

Yeah, he's the... yeah.

Feds didn't even go
through the Oceanside PD.

They just went
straight to the board.

It's gonna be hard to pull a
job with the DEA watching us.

Yeah, I know.

Did you check out
the liquor store?

Yeah, there's not much there.

You're thinking about
robbing a liquor store?

The owner's a hawala.

A what?

He runs an illegal
international money service.

You've seen anything?

Bunch of Indian housewives and
old Mexican construction workers.

And then, I talked to the guy
sending off a few grand max.

What's up?

Where have you been?

Some motorcycle cop chased
me through a parking garage.

It's fine. He crashed. What
are you guys talking about?

I was talking about
robbing a hawala.

What if you need to move large amounts
of money without anyone knowing?

Maybe a rich guy in China or
Russia wants to buy a house in LA,

or finance a yacht, skip paying
his taxes, what do they do?

You're thinking
there's another guy.

He does what your liquor
store guy does, but it's bigger.

Exactly.

So, how do we find him?

We ask Frankie.

- You're still talking to her?
- Frankie?

Yeah, when was the
last time you guys spoke?

If you wanna buy a stolen painting or
a stolen Rolls-Royce, you need cash.

Frankie's gonna
know a guy like that.

So, you want me to ask Frankie whether
we can burn another one of her contacts?

Yes.

You all right, man?

Renn took off?

You told them?

Maybe you should go
home and just sleep it off.

Yeah, well, I can't
do that, man. All right?

There's too much baby
shit everywhere and...

Where have you been
sleeping the past three days?

Your place.

You don't have
the key to my place.

Yeah, well, man, you know, I was
mostly outside, still not big a deal...

- What do you mean "mostly"?
- Well...

I had to go and
take a piss, so...

How would you get
into the house to do that?

I busted a window,
man, all right?

- So, you broke into my house.
- Bro, it's not that big a deal, okay?

- I'll fix it, all right?
- It's all right. I'll take care of it.

You know, she's
gone, taken my son.

And you're here just getting
pissed about your goddamn window?

What's going on?

- Ralphie said no.
- What?

He wouldn't take the
truck. Says we got heat.

Pete Trujillo.

What are we gonna do about that?

Not sure yet.

We should try and figure
out that money transfer thing.

- Your hawala?
- Hmm.

What's your plan with the truck?

Tomorrow's recycling.
Scavengers will be out later.

Good idea.

Quiet! You'll get me in
trouble with my landlady.

Why did you move again?

I'm downsizing.

Yeah, I mean, no shit.

Looks more like you're hiding.

Hey.

Oh, you smell
like a cat litter box.

How long have you been up?

A couple of days.

Well you called. Now,
you're here. What's up?

Yeah, I was just, um...
Maybe, we could have some fun.

All right.

Come here.

Oh, now you're talking.

You look tired.

I just want Nick back.

Who's Nick?

My son.

You have a kid?

Yeah, it's complicated.

Maybe it's not, I don't know...

I don't know, she took him.

And I'm not sure if she
wants to be with me anymore.

Dream about Nick.

Hey!

What are you doing, y'all
getting some... some sodas?

All right, why don't you let...

- Uncle Max treat. Here you go.
- My mom already gave us money.

She did?

Wow, that's interesting.

I didn't think your
mom had much money.

Your mom owes Uncle Max money...

but she's not taking
Uncle Max very seriously,

so I thought maybe I should
come and talk with you kids.

Now, I know that may
sound a little funny...

but sometimes kids
just understand things

better than the
grown-ups do, you know?

Hi.

How old are you, honey?

You're a tough guy, huh?

Okay.

All right, I'll tell you what, go
tell your mom that Max said...

time's up.

Got metal.

Hola, señores.

You know what drives me crazy?

Huh?

Unforeseen obstacles.

You know?

You just wanna get on with
things. Life, work, family...

These little jackasses get
in your way, try to stop you.

Yeah, I know, like when you're
driving, and an animal runs into the road.

You swerve, maybe you spin out,
maybe you drive off the road and crash.

Because if you go
straight, you hit the animal,

a lot of blood.

You keep going.
Something like that?

Exactly.

So, if an animal gets in our
way, we're just run it over, right?

I thought you were sleeping.

Well, I was.

But now, I'm awake.

It's only been a
couple of hours.

That's all I need.

No, you need a week.

So, have you heard of these guys

where you got to move
money from one country,

like China, to
buy paintings or...

Rolls-Royces or...

You want to buy a Rolls-Royce?

No.

I just wanna know how I can get money
from China so I can buy a Rolls-Royce.

You know, move money
without people knowing.

Like havalinas?

You're talking about a hawala?

Yeah.

So you know any?

And I mean, big ones who
are sitting on a lot of cash.

What you're talking about...

it's dangerous.

What the hell, man?
Everybody out of here!

- Go!
- Oh, hey, man.

- You wanna play?
- No.

Craig said it was cool.

Yeah, Craig's an idiot.

Get out of here.
Go! Everybody leave.

Hey, can you drive us home?

No! Go back to school
or something. Go.

Goddamn it.

Hello? Who is this?

I talked to a friend. I
think I found a solution.

Yeah, what's that?

Look, I'm gonna need to present
it to all the Codys in person, okay?

Why?

Because your brother shows
up here saying one thing,

and then your nephew
shows up saying another thing.

I got to know
everyone's on board.

All right, okay. Mmm.

My bar, 10:00 a.m.
tomorrow morning.

No. In two hours.

What do you mean two hours?

Things are already in motion.

So just call your
brothers and J.

Two hours.

It's all set.

They'll all be there.

You sure we need all of 'em?

You wanna put pressure on one Cody,
you gotta get the other Codys to do it.

And you think they will?

I've been working these guys.
They only care about themselves.

None of them are going to jail for
Adrian Dolan. I promise you that.

See you in two hours.

Oh, yes. So soft.

Supple...

Like... Like a cheetah.

I mean, the spot...

So smooth.

Shut up.

Mom!

Oh, shit.

No. No, not yet.

Mom.

We can't do this.

Come on!

You expect me to put
my pants on with this?

Hey!

Where are the snacks?

What happened?

Hey, tell me.

The scary man.

What happened?

He wanted to buy us soda.

What else? Come here.

What else?

He said you owed him money.

Anything else?

He said, if you don't pay him his
money, he's gonna take us to live with him.

Hey, hey.

All right. Don't worry
about it. You're here now.

You're safe.

Hey, stop! Listen to me.

Wipe away your tears.

You look like a drowned rat.

Got the TV hooked up!

Yeah. Go play with Mr. Billy.

He's nice.

Yeah.

Let's go watch some Muppets.

Andrew, stop.

Stop.

Listen to me.

You know that feeling you
have in your chest right now,

like a ball of fire
burning in your belly?

Hmm?

I have it, too.

Don't worry.

That man is never
gonna bother us again.

What, they took the kegs, too?

Yeah, they took everything.

- Got any sleep?
- Yeah, I took a power nap.

So, what's the trail we've got?

I don't know. He just
said for us all to meet here.

Well, I spoke to Frankie.

She says she might know a
couple of those hawala dudes.

Good.

I didn't think you
heard anything we said.

Yeah, well, you thought wrong.

What the hell is this about?

Well, this is your last chance
to save your pathetic ass.

My friend here says
that we should talk.

$2.6 million.

That's how much my
investigation's cost so far.

Plus three years of my life.

You took that from me.

No, we didn't
take shit from you.

Adrian Dolan was the
key witness in my op.

And I want him back.

I can't help you there.

You can... and you will.

Or you'll be the
one doing the time.

If you had anything on us,
we'd be in custody already.

What I have is a local cop

that you dumb asses
thought you could turn.

What I have is a
federal-state relationship,

which means I have
an endless ocean of shit

that I can dump on your heads.

I made a phone call,
your bar got raided.

Another call next
week, it's your house.

And your dead mother's house.

And your dead brother's house.

And your bowling alley.

Oh, you guys ain't
seen nothing yet.

Liquor board, Oceanside
PD, state cops...

I work with them all...

and I will bring every one of them
down on you until the end of time.

Mmm-mmm.

Don't look at him.

Look at me.

Because I'm the one who's gonna
be in your nightmares every night.

I'm the one who's
gonna be haunting...

Dude never shuts up!

Honest truth...

I didn't know he was pulling
that liquor board shit, but...

it's when it hit me,

he was never gonna stop.

Meaning, he would have
gone to all of the local agencies,

IRS, immigration...

This guy was seriously pissed
about that Adrian business.

That's the problem with
these true-believer types.

Just, a bit much.

Goddamn it.

What?

You asked me to do
something, so I did.

Yeah, no, not this.

I had to get him
out here somehow.

So, I told him I've
been working you guys

and that I wanted to be a Fed.

You should have seen his face.

I mean, he practically
came in his skivvies.

I think I've, uh, proven
my usefulness to you guys.

This kind of service
comes at a higher price.

Five grand. Two grand
a month, going forward.

Great.

Oh, his car's outside.

We drove separately.

I saw him put his
keys in his pocket...

And the gun's a burner.

Think I'll keep it
safe... just in case.
