Breakers (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 3 - Coup de grace - full transcript
Jack comes up with a plan to stop the murder from happening but things take a darker turn.
- Is this really necessary?
- Get in.
- My car is parked out front.
- Get in.
- I really don't
mind following you.
I mean, I can give you
the address to get there.
- I insist.
- Why were you here?
- I was on a date.
- With her?
- No, a different girl.
- Well, who was she with?
- Me.
It was a blind date.
- Ms. Ross.
- Oh
I'm not sure.
- You didn't see
her with anybody?
- Not exactly.
- Well, why was she here?
- I don't know.
- You don't know much, do you?
Now, where were you
exactly when you saw her?
Exactly?
- Outside of the bathroom.
- What?
- She was coming
outside of the bathroom.
- Wait here.
- How do I call an Uber driver?
- Sorry for the delay.
- Is this kind of slack attitude
we can expect from your
company during this situation?
- I have no time.
You can go to the south
east corner of the building
and find what
you're looking for.
Can I borrow a pen?
If you look into
Spockus Investments,
they're using it as a shield
company to hide losses.
It's great.
- Spockus?
- Yeah, someone's a
big Star Trek fan.
Also, you wanna gather
all the recyclables
from the building
and having your guys sift
through them because,
they're shredding the most
incriminating stuff first.
Next, my boss is
about to walk by so
this next part's not
gonna be pleasant.
- You're wasting your time,
my time, everybody's time!
There's nothing
to see here, Dave.
- My name is not Dave.
- 25th floor.
- Oh hey, man.
What are you doing
all the way over here?
- Listen, that girl Molly?
I want you to set us up.
- Really?
- Yeah. Sure.
- Okay, I'll see if
she's free tonight.
- She is.
- You sound really
optimistic about this one.
- Let's just say I have a
good feeling about tonight.
- Molly, yeah, it's Ryan.
Hey, are you free tonight?
- Yeah, we have a problem.
- Where is he?
- I don't know.
- Find him.
- Alright, you're all set.
- Great.
- Hey, I heard those SCC guys,
they went up to Bill's office.
- They did?
- Yeah.
- That is not good.
- Okay, yeah, not good.
What does 'not good' mean?
- It's not the best.
- So, I mean, does that
mean that it's the worst?
What? I mean...
- I don't know.
You didn't do anything wrong,
just keep your head down.
- I'm sorry, Howard
needs to see you.
- Why are they on
the 25th floor?
How do they even know
about the 25th floor?
What I don't understand is
how they can be
with you one minute,
and then prying through
every filthy document we got
the next minute.
And asking about
Star Trek!
- Who was that that
dropped you off there?
- Uber.
- What's wrong with your car?
- Nothing.
- Well, you didn't send
it to a mechanic, did you?
Those guys will nickel
and dime you to death,
at fifty dollars
for an air filter.
- The car is fine.
Hey listen.
The other day, I kind
of snapped at you and
I shouldn't have.
- I don't remember our last
meeting being uncordial.
- Let's just say,
in my head it was.
And I said some things,
and I was wrong.
- What's in the box?
- I got fired today.
- What?
- It seems like there
is a price to pay
for acting like a hero.
- I'm sorry to hear that.
- If I go on from this
point, where I am,
even if things are
left how they are,
if I win I still lose.
- You'll find another job.
I mean, I don't mean to
trivialize it, but you know
you're a bright guy.
- I just didn't think
things would get like this.
- Well, with life
there's bleak moments
and some of them are unbearable.
And sometimes I get to thinking
what am I doing still here?
The plan was for me to go first.
- What do you tell yourself?
- Well, that God's got a plan
and I don't get to know
what it is
I don't even get
to understand it.
My only concern is,
how do I attend to it?
Well, like I said,
you'll find another job.
Probably about in five minutes.
- Papaw, I need a favor.
- Go ahead.
- I need you to pick up my car.
- I thought you said that there
was nothing wrong with it.
- I did.
Nothing's wrong with it.
- Well, Okay.
I mean, you know you
can keep it here.
- I left it parked.
And, I don't really want people
to know that it's my car.
Also, I need to
borrow your truck.
- My truck?
- And this.
- Boy, what are you up to?
- Attending to it.
- Okay, but, I like that truck.
- Bathroom is for women.
You can use the
other one over there.
- Thanks.
I don't need to go.
- Then don't.
- Excuse me, Hi.
It's Molly, right?
- Yeah, yeah, I...
- I'm so sorry to
to do this
could you just check
the restroom for me?
- Oh..
- Tell me what you see.
Just go in the ladies room
and ask for Ms. Ross
- Ms. Ross?
- Do I know you?
- No, but it's important
you come with me.
- Do you know this guy?
- No. Come with me.
- Not now Molly.
You're on a date.
What if he shows up
and you're not there?
- What is going on.
- You're safe.
There's a guy outside
trying to kill you.
- Owwwwwwwww
- Hey, wait.
Who are you?
- Molly, what are you doing?
- How do you know my name?
- This is not a first
impression, okay.
- Are you my date?
- You
Whoa, whoa
- Keep your hands
out of your pockets
I can't believe you maced me.
- Now what?
- No we're leaving
- Who are you?
- I'm the guy
trying to save you.
This is the other guy.
Keys?
- In my pocket.
- Slow.
Slow!
Give them to her.
Get in.
Backseat.
- You do know that he
can still get out, right?
- Yes.
- Like there's
still a door handle.
- Keep walking.
It'll be loud.
- Alright, before anything else
I got to know, what's up
with you and that restaurant?
- What?
- It took me a while
to find you there,
in the women's room.
What's up with that?
- Why have you been
looking for me?
Did Mark send you?
- Mark?
Who's Mark?
- Are you with the FBI?
- No!
- Then who do you work for?
- Nobody.
Interion.
Actually, I was fired today.
I'm pretty sure
that's your fault.
- Why have you been
looking for me?
- Is there a rag or
something around here?
I need to wipe my face.
- I don't know.
This isn't my car.
Oh.
- Thanks.
- Why have you been
looking for me?
- Because somehow our
lives are inter-twined.
I don't know.
I do know that
potato-sack, back there,
is trying to kill you.
Why is he trying to kill you?
- Look I don't know you.
I have no idea who you
are or what you want.
For all I know, you
could be with them, okay.
- If I was with them you'd
be in the back of that trunk.
- Maybe.
- Maybe!
I just saved your life.
- I don't know that.
That whole thing back
there could've been staged.
- so let me
get this straight.
I get fired today.
I get my friends fired.
I finally track you down.
I stop the bad guy from
getting to you first.
You maced me, which feels
wonderful by the way.
I save you again,
and this is all
staged for your
viewing pleasure?
And I lost my hat.
That was a very nice hat.
- Wait, wait, wait.
You can't go, not yet.
- Listen, you have
serious problems.
- Are you gonna hit me?
- Yeah, if you come any closer.
- I gave you the bat.
- That wasn't your smartest
decision, now was it?
- Wow!
Just wow.
- Listen, I don't
want to hit you, okay.
I already feel bad
about your face,
so, just don't follow me.
- You can't go,
not til midnight.
- And why not?
- Because at midnight I
would have done my job
and you'll be safe.
And then you can go
wherever you want.
Go find some other nice
people to pepper-spray,
but I can't let you
leave until then.
- Why? What happens at midnight?
- I turn into a pumpkin.
please.
- You sound like a crazy person.
And, if I just walk away?
- Then I'm just gonna
have to come with you
and neither of us
will like that.
- My name is
Harper. Harper Ross.
- Get in.
- So where are we going?
- I don't know.
- You don't know.
- Hey, hot shot, he saw me.
He wasn't suppose to see me,
but thanks to you he did.
So I don't know where we can go
where you'll be safe.
- No, you're not with them.
Are you?
- I have an idea.
Hi, how are you?
- Fine?
- Sorry for showing up this
late, but you don't know me.
I'm a friend of Earl's.
- Yeah, I know Earl,
but he's never
mentioned a friend.
- I'm Harper.
- Jessica.
- Hi.
- We're in a bind.
Sort of a domestic
abuse situation and,
I was hoping, maybe we can
wait here for a little bit?
- What happened to your face?
- She a, pepper-sprayed me.
- It was an accident.
- We only need a couple
hours of your time
and we'll be out of your hair.
Earl said I could trust you.
- Okay.
- Can we wash up
in your bathroom?
- Sure.
- Earl says hi, by the way.
Sorry about all the towels.
- It's okay.
I can wash them.
- If the stuff doesn't come
out I'll reimburse you.
- So are you two
married or what?
- It's not like that.
- No, we just met.
- I don't like her very much.
Sorry.
Papaw?
- Don't hang up.
Do you know who this is?
- Yes.
- Do you know where I am?
- Yes.
Do you ever see those
flavors they list
on side of the dog food bags?
- I don't have a dog.
- I know, but you've seen
dog food bags before.
They got the flavors
listed down the side.
Chicken, beef, pork and
vegetables etc.
I was wondering, why
they have those flavors
listed on the side of the bag?
Because after all, it's not
like we're gonna eat it.
The dog eats it.
So, how would we know?
I mean it could say, steak
or lobster or alien food.
How would anybody know?
Not like the dog's gonna eat it.
They eat they're own doody.
It makes no difference to me.
- Why are you telling me this?
- It turns out, they have
actual taste-testers,
real people, like us
that's they're job.
They go and taste the food
and determine what
to put on the bag.
Dude, can you imagine
a job like that?
You go to a dinner
party, and they're like
what do you do?
And you say, I taste
dog food for a living.
Sorry.
- Those go in the pot.
They can trace that
to within the inch.
- Papaw, no one cares.
Don't leave the house.
If you see anything
weird, call the police.
And don't leave before midnight.
I'll be back.
- Papaw! Papaw!
Papaw, hey, wake-up.
Wake-up, wake-up.
Hey, hey, can you hear me?
Papaw, wake-up.
Wake-up Papaw!
- 9-1-1,
what your emergency?
Hello, hello? Hello?
Sir, sir, I need your location.
- My Papaw.
I just found him
dead in the backyard.
I don't know.
I don't know what happened.
It's just..
- Sir,
I can't help you
if you don't tell
me where you are.
- Wait, what time is it?
- It's okay.
It's not your fault.
You didn't know what
game you were playing.
I don't hold it against you.
You've got to be careful
with phones, though.
The pot thing, fantastic.
Why don't you set the bat
down and take a seat? hmm
And we'll have us a
little discussion?
I only have one question.
I understand Ms. Ross,
I even have some
respect for her,
scrooples are a
fine thing to have
when you know how to use them.
But I don't know you.
I didn't know you this morning.
You weren't a blip on my radar.
And now here we are,
and it has come to
this, and I'm wondering
where did you come into this?
- You wouldn't believe
me if I told you.
- You've told me you
met Ms. Ross before,
in a restaurant.
But you know what's funny?
When I ask her how you met
she told me,
actually she swears,
that she met you for the
first time this evening.
- I can see how she'd say that.
- That's too bad.
I liked your story better.
You know, I've always
been a romantic.
Who's this?
- My friend.
- She said she met
you an hour ago.
- A friend of a friend.
- Interesting.
Very interesting.
Now Ms. Ross, I'm
going to need the file.
Or he dies.
All of this
for something so small.
You know I always thought
of you like a daughter.
- No you didn't.
- But I did dear.
I did.
That's what makes it so tragic.
You always reminded
me of myself.
Heart,
ambition,
fortitude.
I'm gonna have such a hard time
talking with your
parents about this.
- At this point, I have no
reason to lie to you both.
And, I hope that you
believe me when I say that
I feel bad about what I've done.
I feel bad about you grand-dad.
I want you to know that
he was nothing but kind.
Betrayal's personal.
She crossed the line.
I can still respect her,
but she made a choice.
But for you both,
it's not personal.
It's just a bad beat.
We are creatures of
glory and horror.
That's just how it is.
- Get in.
- My car is parked out front.
- Get in.
- I really don't
mind following you.
I mean, I can give you
the address to get there.
- I insist.
- Why were you here?
- I was on a date.
- With her?
- No, a different girl.
- Well, who was she with?
- Me.
It was a blind date.
- Ms. Ross.
- Oh
I'm not sure.
- You didn't see
her with anybody?
- Not exactly.
- Well, why was she here?
- I don't know.
- You don't know much, do you?
Now, where were you
exactly when you saw her?
Exactly?
- Outside of the bathroom.
- What?
- She was coming
outside of the bathroom.

If you look into
Spockus Investments,
they're using it as a shield
company to hide losses.
It's great.
- Spockus?
- Yeah, someone's a
big Star Trek fan.
Also, you wanna gather
all the recyclables
from the building
and having your guys sift
through them because,
they're shredding the most
incriminating stuff first.
Next, my boss is

Hey, are you free tonight?

- Great.
- Hey, I heard those SCC guys,
they went up to Bill's office.
- They did?
- Yeah.

- Okay, yeah, not good.
What does 'not good' mean?

Sort of a domestic

If you see anything
weird, call the police.
And don't leave before midnight.
I'll be back.
- Papaw! Papaw!
Papaw, hey, wake-up.
Wake-up, wake-up.
Hey, hey, can you hear me?
Papaw, wake-up.
Wake-up Papaw!
- 9-1-1,
what your emergency?
Hello, hello? Hello?
Sir, sir, I need your location.
- My Papaw.
I just found him
dead in the backyard.
I don't know.
I don't know what happened.
It's just..
- Sir,
I can't help you
if you don't tell
me where you are.
- Wait, what time is it?
- It's okay.
It's not your fault.
You didn't know what
game you were playing.
I don't hold it against you.
You've got to be careful
with phones, though.
The pot thing, fantastic.
Why don't you set the bat
down and take a seat? hmm
And we'll have us a
little discussion?
I only have one question.
I understand Ms. Ross,
I even have some
respect for her,
scrooples are a
fine thing to have
when you know how to use them.
But I don't know you.
I didn't know you this morning.
You weren't a blip on my radar.
And now here we are,
and it has come to
this, and I'm wondering
where did you come into this?
- You wouldn't believe
me if I told you.
- You've told me you
met Ms. Ross before,
in a restaurant.
But you know what's funny?
When I ask her how you met
she told me,
actually she swears,
that she met you for the
first time this evening.
- I can see how she'd say that.
- That's too bad.
I liked your story better.
You know, I've always
been a romantic.
Who's this?
- My friend.
- She said she met
you an hour ago.
- A friend of a friend.
- Interesting.
Very interesting.
Now Ms. Ross, I'm
going to need the file.
Or he dies.
All of this
for something so small.
You know I always thought
of you like a daughter.
- No you didn't.
- But I did dear.
I did.
That's what makes it so tragic.
You always reminded
me of myself.
Heart,
ambition,
fortitude.
I'm gonna have such a hard time
talking with your
parents about this.
- At this point, I have no
reason to lie to you both.
And, I hope that you
believe me when I say that
I feel bad about what I've done.
I feel bad about you grand-dad.
I want you to know that
he was nothing but kind.
Betrayal's personal.
She crossed the line.
I can still respect her,
but she made a choice.
But for you both,
it's not personal.
It's just a bad beat.
We are creatures of
glory and horror.
That's just how it is.
