Animal Kingdom (2016–…): Season 5, Episode 3 - Free Ride - full transcript

J's business secrets come to light. Pope mourns the loss of Smurf. Deran has to distract himself from his loneliness. Craig and Renn try to find a work/life balance.

Pete Trujillo has a job for us.

What's the job?

Smuggler's plane came down
in the San Bernardino Mountains.

- What's in it, drugs?
- Money...

- Why doesn't Pete just do it himself?
- It's too tough to get to.

Ropes, climbing gear. It's 20
miles away from easy vehicle access.

I don't get it. We used
to do this shit all the time.

And that's how I
ended up in jail.

What are you gonna do for money?

Trying some new
shit, been networking.

What else you got?



Even my ashtrays
are pure silver.

That Adrian is a
good-looking guy.

You can just spot them anywhere,
like airport security camera.

I didn't care about
you. I do now.

- Pull the trigger!
- Relax.

- Pull the trigger!
- Well, you want me to?

Get this crazy bitch
out of my house!

- Can't just leave her out here.
- What are we supposed to do?

Get out.

Where's Pope?

So we need to figure out
what to do with Smurf's ashes.

Do we have any
idea what set him off?

Did you get any of those
little chorizos at the store?

- Yep.
- Yes.



Oh.

Sorry, uh, didn't
mean to wake you.

Just need to get the blanket.

Got it in Taos on our honeymoon.

I was getting up.

We're heading back to
our place to get some chow.

You wanna come with?

No.

That was fun.

We should, uh... get
together again soon.

Sure.

Well, um, till next time.

Later.

Fleischer Hartman and
Jones, attorneys at law.

Gloria Hartman, please.

And who may I say is calling?

J Cody. I wanna talk about
my grandmother's estate.

Please hold.

Nice.

I got 'em from in front of that
fancy new spin studio on Mission,

the one with the
huge climbing wall.

People ride their
bikes to a cycling class?

All I know is they
use shitty locks.

Right, 150 each.

Hello, J. What can I do for you?

Hey, I wanted to see if
Pamela Johnson got in touch.

No, haven't heard a peep.

- Why not?
- It's a process.

You got an eye problem?

I can't help it.

Your boobs look
amazing right now.

Sorry, babies get
first dibs on boobs.

- Mmm-hmm.
- Mmm.

- Hey, man. Is Renn here...
- Get the hell off my porch.

It's Renn's porch, too, right?

- She's not here.
- Her car's here.

She's in there with the baby.

If you need Renn, call her.

Don't show up here again.

- Chill out, man.
- Go.

Yo, it's bad enough that you got that
dipshit Tonya coming around. But Z.Z.?

The guy's a walking
arrest warrant.

Goddamn it. Craig, I just
got Nick to start latching.

You said that
Tonya was a one-off.

So you want me doing this
what, on a corner somewhere?

What, Z.Z., seriously?

- Out. Fuera.
- What?

Whatever.

Boy, didn't I take that
knife from you once?

Uh-uh! Uh-uh.

That's your lunch
you're poking holes in.

Are you hearing this?

Sure, but lunch, knife...

Hey, do you have a hair dryer?

Where are you going?

- Out.
- Out where?

I got a lead on a job.

Julia, take your brother
into my bedroom.

Why?

Aunt Birdie's got some new
make-up in there. You can try.

Come on, Andrew.

A job, huh?

Uh...

I'm just checking
a few things out.

If anything pans
out, I'll let you know.

You get picked, I am not
taking care of your kids.

I'm calling family services.

Pam?

Do you think maybe you could lend
me a couple bucks just for bus fare?

My car finally
bit the dust. I...

Thank you.

- Bye!
- Bye.

Hey, man, I found your
toothbrush next to the prep sink.

Figured you probably didn't want

the health department
writing you up again.

Doing all right, man?

Uh, I'm gonna go grab that keg.

You look like shit.

So what's up?

You cool about
this Trujillo job?

They want to send a couple
of low-level douchebags

to go and look around.

If they don't find
anything, then,

well, cost of doing business.

We're stealing
cash from a cartel.

I just don't wanna end up headless,
hanging from a bridge somewhere.

They don't do that
shit up here, man.

- You know what a cartel actually is?
- Mmm.

Just baggage handlers and middle
managers, man, like a Best Buy.

A corporation, basically.

Yeah, well, corporations don't like
people stealing money from them.

They figure the losses
into their business models.

- Their "business models"?
- Mmm.

Yo. If anything's off,
we just walk away.

It's been a while.

You look good.

You too. What's this?

Jake got married.

- Congratulations.
- Thank you.

Who's the lucky lady?

- Cheryl.
- What do you want?

A horse?

- So what?
- It's a unicorn.

And it's worth $7,000.

You can get more of these?

Yep, and some gold and
some cash, other valuables.

Security? Smash and grab? What?

No guns, it's just
a quick in and out.

You sure?

Oh, you need to
check with your wife?

So you get to carry the drone and
I'm supposed to carry all this crap?

We can drop the gear
and free climb if you want.

Where were you last night?

- Out.
- Out where?

You told me to get you
a ride, I got you a ride.

Where the hell have you been?

I was looking for an ATM.

You know, that Union
76 card got declined.

Now this estate bullshit
is a pain in the ass.

And all the damn cards
are in Smurf's name.

Yo, is this a 23-inch frame?

They're all either
22 or 23-inch frames.

I raised the seat posts
as high as they'll go,

but the handlebars won't budge.

You'll be fine, man.

- Just ride it like a BMX.
- For 20 miles?

You're always bragging about
stamina, I'll let you prove it.

All right, let's just take
the dirt bikes, okay?

Wait, you wanna lower
a dirt bike off of a cliff?

It's a nice ride.

Yeah.

Stole it about an hour ago off a
lot on the 600 block of Tremont.

It was parked between two pickup
trucks, a blue Ford and a black Dodge.

All right.

So we ride in about 20 miles.

Rappel down to the plane, grab
the shit and get out. It's simple.

Simple? We could be out there all
day looking for this thing, you know?

No, we have the transponder.

And you're sure the owners of the
plane are at least a day behind us?

Yeah, according to Pete.

And if anybody does show up,

we're just three guys
mountain biking for the day.

Living room's around there.

There's shiny shit on the
tables. You've got three minutes.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

All right, let's go.

- You good?
- Yeah.

See you on the other side.

I'm sorry, Marcus
said I could sleep in.

- Hey!
- What...

- There's another maid.
- What the hell!

I thought you said it
wasn't too uphill this way.

Yeah, it's less uphill
than the other route.

You're getting soft, big man. You
can always use your granny gear.

Come on, we've gotta climb.

He's killing the bunny.

It's all right, baby.

One of them has to die
so the other one can live.

That sucked.

I think that's it, looks
like the tip of a wing.

No, it's too small.

- It's the right distance and direction.
- All right, get a little closer.

There.

Yeah, that's it. That's it.

All right.

Yeah, keep it going.

Bike!

When you're ready, Craig.

Oh, shit.

Pete say anything
about a dead guy?

Looks like the animals
have got to him.

Jesus.

Craig, come on,
let's get this shit out.

Got a crowbar?

Let's go.

Ah, shit.

Yeah, that ain't cash, J.

We can't even fit all
of it into the backpacks.

- Man...
- This is shit.

You said it was cash.

Did you know about this?

That drone isn't mine.

Oh, Jesus! Hey, what
are you doing, man?

You won't be able to hit
that shit from right here.

God damn it!

All right, let's pack this
shit up. Let's go on...

Oh, shit!

Get down!

No, man. They can't get down
here from up there. No way.

Maybe they'll find
another way down.

Let's get out of here.

Go, go, go.

Pope!

I'm at the rendezvous
point. What's up?

Dudes on ATVs coming
for us, definitely not friendly.

Do you know how many?

No, but they're looking
for a way off the ridge.

They'll probably head back to
the highway to catch the fire road.

I'm on it.

Damn.

I got one, other
one's headed for you.

Just meet us at the rendezvous.

Guys, one's coming
down from the fire road!

Yo, hold up.

Hold up, hold up.

- What?
- Doing it better.

I must have hit a
rock or something.

You got a snake bite.

You're not gonna make
it more than 50 yards.

Get down!

- You good?
- Yeah.

Cover me. I'll fix it.

Yeah.

We're seeing the shots
before we hear them.

Means he's a ways out.

Probably 500 yards.

But there's no way he
can hit us from that far.

He can if he's a good shot.

Guy's a low-level Sicario,
not a Special Forces sniper.

J, hurry up.

I think he stopped.

Come on, J. He's on the move
again. He's gonna try to outflank us.

Okay, we're good. Let's go.

Goddamn it!

No, we can do this.

Once we're down there,
we're home free. Come on.

Oh, God...

Okay.

- Okay.
- Ready to go?

Yeah.

Like dropping in on a half-pipe.

Yo!

I like this bike.

Well...

- We good?
- Let's go.

I've got a fence who'll
do us a solid deal.

- We can go now.
- I gotta split.

But how about I take the cash and
you guys take the jewels and shit?

- What?
- If someone says,

yeah, I saw a pretty
white girl with all your shit...

What can I say? I'm
pretty hard to forget.

You're pretty easy to forget.

Jewels and shit are worth
more than cash anyway.

It works out better for us.

Yeah, you'll get more than
six grand for all this crap.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, leave the gun.

Oh, no. I earned this.

Okay. Later.

Uh...

We can give you a ride.

- Oh, no, thanks.
- Well, just... Hey!

How're you doing?

I'm fine.

Are... are the kids okay?

Sure.

They're kids.

You just look tired.

Well, you look stupid, but
at least I can take a nap.

You look great. I mean,
you always look great.

If you need anything...

Not anymore.

What'd you think?

We're just gonna grab this
shit and not know what it was?

I knew you'd figure it out.

I thought it was worth the risk.

You thought it
was worth the risk?

You know how hard it's
gonna be to move this stuff?

It's not going to be hard.
I made a deal with Pete.

- Wait, you what?
- Pete's gonna move it.

It's all worked out.

What else you hiding from us, J?

He has a bowling alley.

J's got a bowling alley.

And a laundromat,

and a condo.

He bought it all with
money he stole from Smurf.

You own a bowling alley?

It will help us clean money.
So will the laundromat.

And the condo?

It's a good investment.

You stole from us?

I stole from Smurf.

That's the same thing, J.

Look, I did this to help us.

Bullshit.

- Are you okay with this shit?
- No.

But the score will
bring us a lot of money.

Pete will move it.
It's not our problem.

The DEA agent who busted Adrian
stopped by my bar looking for him.

What, is he tailing you?

No, he just showed up.

And now we have all
this coke in the house.

Well, what's he want?

He wants me to tell
him where Adrian is.

Okay.

Okay, well, okay. We're
not handling the coke.

So, you just play it cool.

And this DEA guy
will just fade away.

I was gonna tell them about the
properties when the time was right.

When your mom died...

Like...

what did you do?

I came here.

I'm not talking about that.

What are you talking about?

I don't know.

It's not how you play it.

Hi, babies.

Did you get a job?

Job wasn't right, baby.

I'll keep looking.

Heard something interesting.

Yeah?

My friend's house in
Baldwin Hills got robbed.

Oh!

Wow, that's crazy.

Let's go.

How stupid are you?

Why are you so mad about this?

Come on. I mean, the
house was just sitting there

with nothing but a couple
maids looking after it.

Well, what did they
think was gonna happen?

Do you know how long it took
me to get inside that man's house?

No... but it took me 30 seconds.

You're not getting it.

I'm not doing this piss-ant
bullshit the rest of my life.

I've been down that road.

You can run with whatever

wild and crazy idea just
pops up in your head.

- But I'm trying to build something!
- Hey, Pam. Look around!

Everything's gone to shit!

There is nothing left to build.

I want my cut.

- What?
- Finder's fee.

You found that house
because I took you to it.

I want my cut!

- Okay.
- Mmm-hmm.

Now pack your shit and get out!

Good, yeah.

Evening, barkeep.

Yes, we tracked you down.

We have a very
particular set of skills.

What can I get you guys?

Some more of what
we had last night.

- So a couple beers?
- Gin and tonics.

Uh, spoiler alert.

You are a good lay.

Amazing.

Thank you.

- I gotta go to the kitchen.
- Okay, uh, we're coming on strong.

It's just that... I mean...

Come on. Admit it.

That was great last night.

What the hell did
you do to Z.Z.?

What?

He's been telling
people you picked him up

and slammed him
onto the sidewalk.

Jesus.

I barely touched him.

Well, now my other clients
are afraid to come here.

Good.

You can't mess up
my business, Craig.

Well, then, don't do your
business in my house.

Our house. Fine, whatever.

- Just don't do your business here.
- Where then?

Look, we have no idea
who could be watching us.

And if I get busted,
that's one thing.

And it sucks.

But a boy can get by
when his dad's in the joint.

That's not true
if you get busted.

Fine.

I won't deal from the house.

You need to quit.

Quit?

And do what?

I don't know.

I don't know.

But I've got you.

I take care of myself.

How did you get that
back from Aunt Birdie?

Don't call her that.

He'll stop when it hurts.

Hi, Jake.

You guys all set?

Well, you can ride in the back.
But you gotta jump really high, okay?

That's a good jump.

There you go. Attaboy!

So... where to?

Oceanside.

Oceanside?

Hey.

Why there?

Um...

Could we just go?

Oceanside, it is.

You good, bud?

Mystery

Stirred something...

You want that, don't you, slut?

Yeah.

You're gonna watch.

What?

I said you're gonna stand over
there and you're gonna watch.

Listen, Blake.

Let's go, Blake.

No.

So?

It went good.

I knew you boys were up
for that mountaineering shit.

I'll bring it by tomorrow.

The hell you will.

I told you I'd move it.

Not hold it. It's too risky.

How long to move it?

Just got to find one buyer.

Wholesale.

Yeah, wholesale.

What'd you think? I got
guys slinging on the corner?

I own a garage, J.

Good job.

J?

Natalie. Hey.

Long time no see.

What are you doing?

Ah, I'm just hanging out.

This is J.

Smartest guy in the whole world.

I'll be right back.

So, have you heard
from Nicky lately?

No. No, not in a while.

She got married.

She's out in Barstow
now. There's a base there.

A base?

She married a Marine.

Right.

I hate to be the
bearer of bad news.

You look like you
could use a friend.

Shit.

I think...

I think I screwed up. Big time.

Get out.

What?

I said, "Get out."

Fire in a body

Fire in a heart

As we go together

As we come apart

I'll never know

Every shape you can take

Oh, I'll never know

Every shape you can take

I'll never know

Every shape you can take
