Charlie's Angels (2011): Season 1, Episode 1 - Angel with a Broken Wing - full transcript

Once upon a time,
there were three young women

who got into very big trouble.

The first was a Park Avenue
princess turned thief.

The second was a Marine
decorated for valor,

court-martialed
for a deadly mistake.

And {he third was a
dedicated police defective

turned dirty cop.

They each made mistakes,

but I gave them a second chance.

And now they work for me.

My name is Charlie.



Angels, you 're looking
for a 16-year-old runa wa.

Her name is Sarah Daniel.

She's being held captive
in a room

somewhere in the Falcon Hotel.

A notorious child traffickr
known as Pajaro

is attempting to sell he.

You have to find Sarah
before it's too late.

Oh! sorry!

I managed to kill your martini

and mortally wound your shirt.

God.

It's not, uh, it's not fatal.

Can I buy you a drink?

Yeah, I am...
I am such a klutz,



I'd probably spill it.

One fashion emergency
is enough for tonight.

Take good care of her.
I won't be long.

Thanks.

Okay, ladies.
Time to fly.

You bug Mackal's phone?

With one hand behind my back.

You in position?

Almost.

Headed towards
the service area now.

Gloria,
has the buyer's rep touched down?

Walking off his G6 as we speak.

Welcome to Miami,
Mr. Fisk.

Thank you.

Lgoz' Fisk.
I'm leaving the a/rpz' now, Kate.

Abby, get Bosley in position.

I'm on it.

Bosley?

Bosley!

Adult swim is over.

Excuse me, ladies.
Duty calls.

I'm meeting Pajaro's
broker in 20 minutes

to pick up the package.

I'll e-mail you a picture now.

I think you'll approve.

Bosley, you all ready?

Okay, Gloria.
I'm wired in.

Bug is active.
I'm ready to track the calls.

Okay, I'm going off-road.

What are you doing?
Where do you think you're taking me?

What?

Where's Pajaro's broker
keeping the girl?

I don't know, I swear.

Okay! Okay!

The Falcon Hotel!

I'm meeting him at the bar.
A guy named Mackal.

Once it's confirmed
by boss' wire transfer,

he'll give me instructions how to
get the package out of the hotel.

She's not a package.

Her name is Sarah.
She's 16 years old.

I'm just the middle man.
I'll do anything.

You're gonna make a phone call,

and you better be Oscar-worthy.

It's Fisk.
The limo never showed.

I'm jumping in a cab.

I'll let my guys know.

He's calling the hotel room.
Locking down the signal.

Yeah.

Sit tight. Buyer's rep
is running late.

I got it.

He called room 2819.

Get visual confirmation
Sarah's in the room.

Satellite camera coming online.

Okay, you got three
guys in the room.

They look heavily armed. Sarah's
on the bed. She's bound and gagged.

Okay, Abby, ready to do
some housekeeping?

Dropping in now.

- Who is it?
- Room service.

Um!

Let's go.

Shh. It's okay.

You're safe.

Okay.
There we go.

Who are you?
You don't look like cops.

We're not.

We're Angels.

CHARUE". I spoke to Sarah's
parents, Angels.

They are incredibly relieved to
have her back safe and sound.

Well, now that Mackal's

been hiding behind
an army of lawyers,

what are the chances he'll
flip on his boss, Pajaro?

It's doubtful
Mackal's even met him.

You do realize the irony of that
coming from you, right, Charlie?

Oh, Miami PD's been trying
to nail Pajaro for years.

He doesn't leave any footprints,
electronic or otherwise.

He's a ghost.

Ghosts aren't real.
This guy is and he needs to pay.

Don't lose sight of
what you accomplished tonight.

Sarah's safe
because of you three.

And, of course, you, Bosle.

Good night, Angels.

Good night, Charlie.

Okay, time to get the party on.
I'm serious.

I'm gonna have to pass.

Hmm?

L, uh, got
a previous engagement.

Poolbabes?

Um...

Good night.

Ooh!

Okay, well, where
are we celebrating?

Uh, Tidepool, Ripcord?

Or if we go to The Deck,
I can score us a VIP table.

Sounds good.

Oh. ls your favorite
bartender working tonight?

So funny you should ask.

Actually, his shift does
not end until 5:00 a.m.

Hmm.

What? He's single, he's
straight, and he has a life plan.

Mixing mojitos.

No. He is saving his
money to buy a boat

and sail around the world.
That is a plan.

You do realize
that is not a life plan.

Okay, fine.
He's a dreamer, and that's sexy.

Please, please, come with me.

Actually, guys,

I think I'm going to skip
the velvet rope tonight.

No, you're not. Come on.
You're coming with us. Let's go.

No. No, no, no, no.
Really, really.

I'm completely beat.

You guys go.
Go and have a margarita for me.

We will have
two margaritas for you.

You're missing out.

I found these in your trash.

When you said your
dad was reaching out,

you didn't say it was a full-blown
letter writing campaign.

The Great White Shark of Wall
Street can be relentless,

even in captivity.

And I threw them in there
for a reason, Detective.

Good night. I'll catch
you ladies tomorrow.

It is tomorrow.

Come on.
It's your dad.

I used to steal Warhols
to get that man's...

Gloria!

Please tell me
she's not really gone.

And that I'm just gonna
wake up and see her again.

You know,
I never thought my heart could...

hurt this much.

She doesn't Even have any
family that we can call.

We were her family.

She was our sister.

How's Charlie?

Devastated.

Losing an Angel
is his worst nightmare.

It's mine, too.

We're gonna find out
who did this.

If it's the last thing we do.

Nothing here.

We're good.

They just walked in.
Hold on a second.

We're clean on this side.

Can we have the room?

Phil, let's get out of here.

Clear the room.

Okay, Charlie.

CHARUE". Bosley updated me.
Thank God you're okay.

Who were those people?

It's just a precaution.

They're sweeping the agenc.

I sent teams
to your homes as well.

You think we're being targeted?

I can't confirm that you're not.

Gloria was family,

and her murder
is our most personal cas.

I need to know
you're up for the fight.

Bring it on.

Just remember,

you're angels of justice,

not angels of vengeance.

Check this out.

I gave the cops access to
all of our security cameras,

except these.

Sending it to you now.

This is half an hour before
you guys left the building.

Check out the woman on the
motorcycle scoping Gloria's car.

She split right
after the explosion,

didn't call 911 or stick
around and wait for the police

and talk to them.
She just... took off.

What's that's shadow
on the back of her neck?

Look at the ink.

Same as Gloria's.

Means they were members of
the same car boosting crew.

I don't get it.
Gloria waved good-bye to that life

when she enlisted
with Uncle Sam.

Bos, run her face

against the Miami-Dade
auto theft database.

Log in under
Detective Ray Goodson,

badge 4-1-9-7-6.

You're ex-fiance?

Yes.

Guess I can take
impersonating a police officer

off my bucket list.
Password?

Always uses his birthday.

12-4-80.

Access granted.

Eve French.

Pleaded no contest

to grand theft auto
and manslaughter in '05.

Stole a Lamborghini,

got into a high-speed chase,

ended up hitting a cab
and killing the driver.

Did four years at Tallahassee
Women's Correctional.

How long she been back in Miami?

Paroled six months ago.

Lives on a houseboat,
Biscayne Marina.

Why would she want Gloria dead?

Let's go ask her.

Whoa, whoa.
Remember what Charlie said.

What? These are just
conversation starters.

Guys.

Just... be careful.

For me.

Okay, calm down.
We just wanna talk.

Try knocking next time.

Why did you kill Gloria?

I didn't.

Then why were you in stalker mode
outside the agency last night?

We caught you on tape
fleeing the scene.

That doesn't make me guilty.

Innocent people
don't usually run away.

I'm not playing this game.

Gloria was like a sister to me.

We need to move.

NOW!

All right, we got 'em!
We got 'em.

Oh!

Ah!

Who were those shooters?

In case you missed it,
they tried to kill me, too.

Look...
Easy, Abbs.

Let's do this
back at the office.

No, she starts filling in
the blanks right now.

I got a text from Gloria.

She wanted me
to meet her after work.

Then why not come in instead of
lurking around on the street?

I'm shy.

Hey, did she say
what she wanted?

Personal case
she was working on.

She wanted to show me something.

Deal with them or come with us.

It's your call.

You girls decent?

Yeah, I just updated Charlie.

I've got Gloria's phone records.

She texted Eve
at 12:35 am.

Wow. She wasn't lying about
your mad hacking skills.

Okay, uh,
I'm not a big fan of the "H" word.

It's like telling Picasso

he's good at throwing
paint onto a canvas.

Wait. Gloria talked to you
about us?

Said you were the best
crew she Ever had.

She never mentioned you once.

That doesn't mean
we weren't close.

I met Gloria when I was five.

St. Theresa's Orphanage
in El Salvador.

How did you end up
in Central America?

My parents were aid workers.

They were killed in the
civil war down there.

When I got to St. T's,

Gloria took me under her
wing and protected me.

Wow. From orphan
to car thief to jailbird.

You should have
your own reality show.

I'm not bitter about the
cards I've been dealt.

If you wanna survive,
you have to adapt.

Is that what
you're doing right now?

I know you're upset because
Gloria came to me instead of you.

But the fact that your feelings
are hurt isn't my problem.

Ding ding!

Love a catfight, but, ladies,
please, back to your corners.

Mmm.

Eve, according to
her phone records,

you two have been
talking a lot recently.

Yeah.
When I got paroled,

Gloria was helping me
get back on my feet.

I swept her hard drive,

if she was working a case on her
downtime, she left no trace.

Do you have any idea
what she wanted to show you?

No, but I think we should
go check out her apartment.

Let's do it.

Since when can the cops
spare extra uniforms

to babysit a victim's apartment?

Let's find a way in.
Yeah.

That's Gloria's balcony,
third floor.

Ladies, I got this.

Hand me the Prada.

Abby put the "cat"
in "cat burglar."

Now the doughnut patrol
makes sense.

Somebody made it a crime scene.

But why trash her place?

They even gutted her gator.

I gave this to her
last Christmas.

This is pointless.

I wouldn't say that.

You grow up in an orphanage,

you learn how to hide
things that are valuable.

Hey, guys.

Since when did
Gloria have a cat?

She didn't.

Yeah, she's allergic.

Then what's she doing
with a kitty litter box?

That's my girl.

Nuns force you to be crafty.

It's a class-A floor safe.

Blast-resistant, biometric lock.

Last time I cracked one of
these, it was under two minutes.

But that was after two Cosmos,
and I was hanging upside-down.

I know this box.
This was her mom's.

At St. T's orphanage,
she never let it go.

It's a DNA analysis report.

Came back yesterday.

Gloria had two samples tested.

A flake of blood from the box

and saliva from this shot glass.

Let's see.

Club Cypher.

That's on 10th and Collins.

The two samples match.
I wonder who the big winner is.

This is Nestor Rodrigo.

Why would Gloria
be tracking him?

Oh, my God.
She found him.

Found who?

Pajaro.

How do you know about him?

It's a long story.
But I had no idea she tracked him down.

Time-out.
Rodrigo's a multimillionaire.

He throws more white
parties than Diddy.

You sure he's Pajaro?

I swear on my life.

We need to call Bos.

Yeah, we need
to loop in Charlie.

H! C
Drop the gun! 9y ome on!

- Give me your keys.
- Eve.

Eve, what are you doing?

Keeping a promise I made
to Gloria a long time ago.

I'm serious.

What promise did you make?

To kill Pajaro.

Eve, put the gun down.

Let's just talk this through.

There's nothing to talk about.

That's why Gloria called
me the other night.

So what's your big plan?

Roll up to Club Cypher
and blow Rodrigo away?

He has to pay.
We loved Gloria, too.

We wanna get justice,
but this isn't the way to do it.

You have no idea what he's done.

How about trafficking
underage girls?

He was behind a case
we just broke.

16-year-old runaway.

We managed to help her,

but there were others
we couldn't save.

We can rescue them,

then take down
Pajaro's entire operation,

but not if you kill him.

He can't hurt another girl.

He won't.

You have our word.

All right.
I got confirmation.

The prints on that shot
glass are Nestor Rodrigo's.

Just so we're clear, Eve,

you're accusing one of the biggest
developers in South Florida

of trafficking kids.

You're sure
this is the same guy?

Before Rodrigo
was on magazine covers,

he led a death squad
in El Salvador.

I know because I saw
him with my own eyes.

Gloria dared me to sneak into
the chapel at the orphanage.

Th ere was a wooden angl
0n {he altar;

and we were gonna carve 0 ur
initials in {he back 0f it'.

That's when the trucks came.

Pajaro was there to steal the girls...

And he murdered
the nuns and the boys.

They wore masks and
attacked without warning.

Wait.

If Rodrigo wore a mask,
how can you be sure it's him?

I have an angel
to thank for that.

We hid under the altar.

Gloria was clutching
her butterfly box so fig,

I thought she'd break.

Pajaro came in
to search the chapel,

and that's when I saw his face.

And so did Gloria.

I knew what he was
gonna do with us,

so I hit him with the angel.

And then we ran for our lives.

The faces of the girls
we left behind still haunt me.

Is that why you and Gloria
made your pact to kill Pajaro?

I get it.

You wanted him to pay.

How are we gonna nail this guy?

We aren't.

Abby, Bos, and I
will take it from here.

What?

This isn't about revenge, Eve.

If we're gonna shut down
Rodrigo's operation,

we need him alive.

About tonight, I'm sorry.

Too late.
You're benched.

Rodrigo's been giving the cops
the middle finger for years.

We don't exactly
play by the rules either.

Yeah, we're angels, not saints.

I ran Nestor Rodrigo
past' my intelligence sources.

Let me guess.
He's squeaky-clean.

Spotless.

Sarah Daniels is the only
one 0f Pajarois victims

that has ever been saved.

Abby, was she able
to give you any insight?

She said she was chained
to some other girls.

Most of them
were speaking Spanish.

Here's an interesting fact.

His foundation builds
orphanages in Central America.

Rodrigo must be using it

to funnel girls into the
country for trafficking.

I squeegeed his database.

Somehow he's keeping all of his
illegal activity off the grid.

The man runs a criminal
enterprise in the 21st century.

The information has
to be there somewhere.

Actually, it's in someon.

Her name is Nadia Kozlov.

She has a photographic memory.

One of my buddies at MIT
told me about her.

Thought she was an urban legend.

She absconded with $14
million from the Russian mob.

Rodrigo '5 bodyguards are-n
'2' only for his protection.

They're for hers.

They go with her everywhere,

except inside his
star island compound.

Did we say that
you were benched or no?

Actually, I thought Miss
French could assist you.

Gloria was
the only family I had.

I wanna help.

It's fortunate for you that
I believe in second chance.

Don't let me down.

I won't.

Is this okay with you guys?

It's Charlie's call.

According to his Twitter feed,

Rodrigo is hosting
a charity fund-raiser

at his mansion tomorrow night.

Theme is Heaven and Hell.

Sounds like
we'll blend right in.

Big party,
lots of security distractions.

We go undercover and grab Nadia.

Hate to buzzkill the plan,

but don't you think police
might consider that kidnapping?

The police need evidence.

I only need certainty.

Nadia is the besz' way f0
link Rodrigo f0 his crimes

and take him down.

Watch your backs, Angels.

Good-bye, Charlie.
Thanks, Charlie.

Good-bye, Charlie.

Bye.

FiLalalalalalalalaa

There's Rodrigo.

Bos, are you set?

Truck's in position in
the back by the bathrooms.

Once the spray
hits Nadia's stomach,

she'll start cramping
within 30 seconds.

When she heads to the bathroom,
that's when we 'll grab her

and get her
to the catering truck.

Eve, stay on Rodrigo.
Let us know if he moves.

Got it.

Abbs?
Hmm?

You wanna take the
first shot at Nadia?

She's right by
the ice sculpture.

Hmm.

Can hardly tell the two apart.

Looks just like her.

Abby Sampson?

Bridget and Priscella.

Uh, Dalton Prep?

Uh, yeah.
The Wentworth sisters.

Sure. Hi.

It's been, uh,
it's been forever.

Yeah, cute outfit.

Uh...
Are you one of the servers?

Yeah.

Yeah. Recession's
a bitch, you know.

Oh. Considering
what your father did,

I'd call it payback.

Do you know how much money
he screwed our uncle out of?

Uh, noidea.

L, uh, lhaven%
spoken to my dad in...

Oh. That's for
my Facebook page.

I'm sure all your
old Dalton friends

would love to see
what you've been up to.

Yeah.

Blini?

Ooh! Yeah.
Oh, sure.

Thanks.
Bye.

You are so welcome.

Nice friends.
Yeah.

You all right?

I will be in about 30 seconds.

Oh, my God.

Instant Ex-lax.

Well, at least we know
the gut juice works.

No wonder Gloria liked you.

ABBY". You're up next, Kate.

Hots (Yoeuvre?
No, thank you.

We missed our window.

Time for Plan B.

As in, uh, Plan Bosley?

Whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

We never fully
discussed Plan Bosley.

Well, we know her deal with
Rodrigo is strictly business.

But Charlie's intel suggests

she has a healthy appetite
for the opposite sex.

I'd say Bosley trumps
Beluga any day of the week.

I'll meet you
at the catering truck.

All right.

287.

That's the total
number of guests.

58 servers, 29 busboys,
16 valets, two ice sculptures,

and one very beautiful woman.

What are you?

Doctor, lawyer,
internet billionaire?

Starving grad student.

My buddy's one of the caterers,

so I tagged along
for the free food

and to watch the rich and
famous in their natural habitat.

And what do you think
of the wildlife so far?

Just got more exotic.

Guys, Rodrigo's on the move.

He could be looking for Nadia.

Bos, time to put
the party on wheels.

Get Nadia to the catering truck.

Why don't we find a place
with a little more privacy?

Yeah. The guest house is on
the other end of the compound.

My buddy's catering
truck's right there.

Down and dirty's not my style.

Okay. Okay.
Not down and dirty.

We'll keep it nice and clean.

You have five seconds to
tell me who you really are.

Fine.

I'm a heartbreaker.

Nice job, Casanova.

Took you long enough.

Guys, I lost Rodrigo.

Never mind.
We go! Nadia.

Just get changed and get
the hell out of there.

On!

See? I knew the devil
would get me eventually.

Eve, where are you?

Coming.

Eve, we have to move now.

I'm delayed. Don't wait.

Let's go.

I kept that as a reminder

of when I let two
little girls get away.

You killed my best friend.

It was her own fault.

She should've
left the past alone.

Nadia's missing.

Your past is about to
catch up with you,

Pajaro.

Hmm.

Oh!

Eve, can you hear me?

What have we here?

You're full of surprises.

Eve, are you there?

Once I bring the ice
princess out of sleep mode,

she's all yours, Detective.

Hi.
Easy.

The captain hasn't turned off
the "fasten seat belt" sign.

Where are you taking me?

You're 25,000 feet
above the Atlantic

en route to Saint Petersburg.

Ripping off a Russian crime boss

wasn't exactly
the smartest idea.

Petrovski sent you?

These days, he hires pretty
girls to do a man's job.

You hear that, Abbs?

She called us pretty.

Such a sweetheart.

Whatever he's paying you,

I'll double it.

So turn the plane around.

Rodrigo grabbed one of our team.

Where would he take her?

As soon as we land in Miami,

l'll tell you.

You're lying.

She'll be dead by then.

It's my best offer.

Here's some
in-flight entertainment.

It's a home movie of the last
guy who crossed Petrovski.

Hope you're not squeamish.

Now that guy is
an artist with a nail gun.

You think that scares me?

Hmm?

Well, you should hear
what he has in store for you.

If it makes you feel any better,

he's all bent up about having
to kill his little babushka.

Isn't that what
he used to call you?

How did you know that?

Enjoy your flight.

Oh, wait.

Flamingo Boatyard.

He would have taken
your friends there.

Okay, Bos, it's time to bail.

Don't open that door!
Are you insane?

Hey, relax.

At least you're not in coach.

Who took Nadia?

Tell me where they took Nadia.

Who took Nadia?

You had enough? Hmm?

Just getting warmed up.

"Just getting warmed up".

Oh, my God. Look.

This is where Rodrigo must be
storing the girls he traffics.

Eve's running out of time.
We gotta move now.

New plan.
You get the girls.

I'll get Eve. Go.

Who took Nadia?

Tell me who took Nadia!

Who took Nadia?

Nadia's not as tough
as this one.

She'll break.

Time to slash and burn.

And kill her.

Bos!

Come on!

You'll spend the rest
of your life in a cage.

That's what you deserve, Pajaro.

A- ha.

Thought I might find you here.

Gloria's uncle used
to own this garage, right?

Yeah. I rebuilt my first
engine here when I was 13.

But you're not here
to talk about cars.

Charlie told me he called you.

Came by to see if you've
considered his offer.

Yeah. Um...

I'm just not sure
why he'd want me.

Well, he keeps his criteria
close to the vest.

My bet, he's impressed with your
abilities to adapt to situations,

your above average
driving skills,

and the fact that your employment
options are extremely limited.

Mmm, yes,
is that how he got you?

I was staring at a 20-year
sentence for tax fraud.

Planted a virus
in the l.R.S. mainframe,

skimmed a penny off
everybody's tax return.

My own personal
stimulus package.

I've already done my time,

and working for a voice in
a box isn't really my style.

First rule of
the Townsend Agency,

zero face time with the boss.

Tell him I appreciate the
offer, but it's not for me.

You know why Charlie
calls the women

who work for him "Angels"?

Why?

Because they show up
when you least expect it

when you need them the most.

Trust me.
I'm no angel.

Why?

Because you have a past
you're not proud of?

Look at this
as your second chance,

like the one you gave Gloria.

She was with you the night
you were arrested,

but you let her walk away from the
accident before the cops showed up.

She had always protected me.
I wanted to protect her.

Besides,
she's the only family I had.

We're a family, too.

I think you could use
one of those right now.

It's Charlie.

Take my advice.

Answer the call.

J" Don't need your sad fae

The hours can be long.

And Kate can be really bossy.

Oh! And Abby
will overshare

and want to borrow
all your clothes.

She's right, and I totally
have dibs on those shoes.

Just remember.
We earn our wings together.

I'm ready.

Welcome to the Angels.

Somebody would like
to say hello.

/ trust'
you "re all enjoying my yacht'.

It's amazing.

The only thing we're
missing is the owner.

We were hoping you would drop
in on the celebration, Charlie.

Not today, Angels,
but know I'm always a phone call away.

Cheers.
