- No, baby.
He didn't hate him.

Dimitri didn't love you.

He used you.

Look at my fucking hand.

This is what your boyfriend

Joe, you need to tell me
what really happened here.

- I told you
what really happened.

What, you don't believe me?
Look at my hand.

- I'm trying to here, Joe,
but--

- But what?

- So our daughter's boyfriend,

the sweetest kid
that I have ever met--

- He wasn't.

- His father is head of
a Russian crime family,

and your dad, Teddy,
was his drug mule

who stole $10 million from him?

- And a Lamborghini.

- And a Lamborghini.
- Yeah.

- And so this crime boss
sends his son

all the way to Pittsburgh
just to date our daughter

just to get close to you?
- There you go.

- To see if you know where
Teddy hid the money

before he died.
Is that right?

- Yes.
Thank you.

You finally get it.

- No!

No "thank you," Joe.

Because you sound insane.

- Of course I know
it sounds insane,

any less true.

The one goddamn time that
a white police officer

could be useful to us,

cut the motherfucker in.

- Why would you do that?

- We had to.

He was gon' call it in.

- You mean to tell me that
the police could be helping us,

but you thought it best

to pack our daughter's
dead boyfriend

in the back of
your plumbing van

and bring him home to us?

- We had a plan.

- It was Joe's plan.

- Joe's plan?

- Nigga.

- I'd really like to hear
Joe's plan.

- [chuckles]
So would I.

- Well, uh, we--
we were gon' drive the bodies

up to the, uh, reservoir

and then, uh, weigh 'em down
with some bricks

that we got from Leon's store.

- Oh, so you just
giving our shit away now?

- I thought we'd sink
the bodies and then just

try and find out where the--
where the--where the--

you know,
where the $10 million is.

- That is the dumbest idea
I have ever heard.

- Bitch,
I could not agree more.

- Thank you.

- The reservoir is where
the whole city gets

its drinking water from.

You contaminate it,
they drain it,

then they find
your little Russian friends.

Game fucking over.

What we need to do is
chop these fools up.

- Ch-chop--chop--

chop up what?
- The Russians.

I saw it on one of
my murder shows.

You cut the body parts up

and then you smear
peanut butter on them.

- Peanut butter?
- Yeah.

Skippy, Jif,
whatever the fuck we want.

Then we take the pieces
deep in the woods, right?

Bears, coyotes, they come and
scoop all the body parts up

'cause they love
the peanut butter.

You'll never see them
motherfuckers again.

- We are not
chopping anybody up

because I'm calling the FBI.

- I wouldn't do that.

- Watch me.

- Ange, don't.

- Why?
- Why?

Because I killed two men
in my father's office.

That's why. And--

- And I shot a motherfucker
in the head.

- And that part.

We went too far.

- Joe, listen to me.

This is not who we are.

This is not our life.

We are not people who shoot
other people in the head

I'm sorry. No.

Uh-uh.

get arrested, right?

- It's self-defense, Cathy.

And even so,
I will get him out.

- OK, yeah.
Go ahead. Call the FBI.

They're usually pretty cool
about Black men

who admit to
killing white people.

[line ringing]

- [sighs heavily]

[call hangs up]

I'll step back for a minute,

but you got to tell me

how we gon' get out of this.

- We get rid of the bodies
and then look for the money.

- That's right.

- Look, with $10 million

we can make some moves.

- Moves?

We could pay off the house.
- Mm-hmm.

- Pay off Jenn's tuition.

We can get you
the doctors you need.

- Specialists.
- Specialists!

You could finally
be healthy for once.

- In worst case scenario,
if we find the money--

I cannot believe
I'm saying this,

but we can always give
the money back to the Russians,

if that's what it'll take
to make them go away.

- You would do that?

- I would do that.

- And if anything goes wrong?

- That it's over. It's done.
It's done. It's over.

- And Jenn's safety?

- On my life, ain't nothing
gonna happen to Jenn.

Ain't nothing--nothing's
gonna happen to Jenn.

- No. No, Cat.

What Angela said is right.

We, um--

we are not these people.

Our lives are not perfect,

but we're doing OK.

Right?

The store is not doing great.

But we can turn that around.

Baby,
as long as we have each other,

we have everything.

It's not fucking true.

I hate the life we have.

Do you want to know
what I do every day?

I sit in that fucking
hardware store,

and I try to come up with
reasons not to kill myself.

And I'm out of fucking reasons.

$10 million out there,
