From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series (2014–…): Season 1, Episode 2 - Blood Runs Thick - full transcript

It's about time.

- I could eat a horse.
- Okay.

- Anything?
- Just a beautiful morning in Texas.

- What is this?
- Those are two chicken tacos.

What?
That's what you ordered, right?

No, I ordered chicken tinga.

This is chicken mole.

Not to mention,
you put pico de gallo on them.

You do realize that mole is
the sauce, right?

You don't sauce the sauce, Seth,

unless you have no taste buds
or you fail to apply yourself.



I'm just glad it's not
beef jerky and squeeze cheese, so.

Five years is a pretty
long stretch.

Mmmmm.

What did you do
with all that time, anyway?

You know.

You got to do the time
or the time does you.

So...

I told some stories,
heard some stories...

- played dominos.
- You had five years to improve yourself

and you played dominos.

Is that why I risked my ass to
bust you out of that prison transfer?

This is what I'm talking about, Seth.

You fail to apply yourself.

If it had been me in there, I would
have gotten a degree.



- Really?
- Maybe in engineering.

If it had been you in there,

you would have got shived
on your first day

on account of your
piss-poor people skills.

I don't need people skills...

- I'm a prodigy.
- Oh, really?

Really?

Because you
pissed off everybody in the outfit.

Nobody in KC will touch ya.

Last I heard, you're living in
some shack in the woods near Emporia.

I guess that's how a
prodigy lives?

Is that... - First of all, who
are you hearing that from...

that Courtney Love that you
married for 10 seconds?

Hey...
Leave her out of this!

And second of all, do not dismiss the
importance of becoming self-sufficient.

Look at the world
around you, brother.

- It's coming apart.
- Really?

Oh, yeah.

- Yeah, doesn't look hunky-dory at all.
- Okay, see?

That's 'cause you've
been trapped in an 8x10 cell.

You can't even turn on the news these
days without seeing some new catastrophe

- of Malthusian proportions.
- Come on.

And the man who
cannot build his own shelter

or gut his own food is just
courting disaster.

What is that?

Oh, this?

This is my lucky blade.

I won that in a knife-throwing contest.

This is a knife?

Huh.

Well... how
do you open it?

ls there a button?

I rest my case.

So, they didn't have
any horchata?

- Her-what?
- Oh, come on, man.

Delicious agua fresca...

- made of rice, cinnamon and milk?
- Oh, Jesus Christ.

Okay, what the hell is it with you and
Mexican food all of a sudden?

I mean, seriously,
do you got some new broad in your life

you're not telling me about?

Is her name Carmen?

Does she run a burrito truck?

- What?
- Seth, all I'm saying

- is that you need to apply yourself.
- Apply myself.

Okay... Well, I'm about to apply my
fist to your goddamn face, okay?

Eat your food.

Just because I live in the woods doesn't
mean that I can't plan a job anymore.

You should have let me
plan this one.

Richard, listen to me.

Now, it is a beautiful day
in the lone star state.

So, why don't we
just celebrate my freedom

and the undeniable fact that
history is being made

right here, right now?

The Gecko brothers ride again.

- You got your balls on?
- Screwed on tight.

Any son of
a bitch messes with you...

You got my back.

Here's to getting rich and fat.

And dying in
the arms of a beautiful woman.

Good morning, sweetheart.

And now, on a serious note, folks,

the Department of Public Safety
has just put out an advisory

for two men reportedly behind a violent
bank robbery in Abilene this morning.

They're looking for two males, late 20s,
wearing dark-blue suits,

believed to be armed and dangerous.

♪ Oh come angel band ♪

♪ Come and around me stand ♪

♪ Oh bear me away
on your snowy white wings ♪

♪ To my immortal home I ♪

Guess I should have used some of that
collection money for singing lessons.

I don't think the congregation
could stand it, Daddy.

So, have you decided yet?

Are we going to the beach?

Well, I don't
likely know, Katie-cakes.

Why, do you want to go
to a beach?

What else is
there to do in Mexico?

Well, I'm sure there's
lots to do there.

They do have beaches, but they
also got mountains, deserts and ruins.

So, which one are we going to?

Wherever the wind takes us.

Come on...
Sing with me.

- ♪ I am weak but thou art strong ♪
- Yeah, right.

No, thanks.

♪ Jesus keep me from all wrong ♪

♪ I'll be... ♪♪
Who's that?

Nobody.

Is that that Winthorp boy
from church?

His name is Kyle.

And he just wants to
know when we're gonna be back.

Kyle can wait.

As a matter of fact, waiting
is a fine skill for him to acquire.

Haha, very funny.

Daddy?

This whole thing...

it's all so sudden, don't you think?

Well, I prefer spontaneous.

We're not gonna be gone
too long, right?

I mean, we got school.

Well, you and your brother
are both exceptional students.

So you'll catch up or you'll go
back to homeschool.

You're kidding me, right?

It's my senior year, Dad.

I have homecoming and-
and friends and...

I have a life.

You certainly do, with me and
your brother, right here on this RV.

Good Lord.

Light a match!

Only gonna get worse.

And by the time we get to Mexico,

this thing is gonna be running
on a whole different kind of gas.

You're disgusting.

I'm awesome.

Like these guys.

The Sacred One, The Hurricane.

Can you even read that?

I like the pictures.

You know that
stuff is rigged, right?

Yeah, but the rules are, like,
way looser down there.

Also, the more of a freak
you are, the more popular you become.

Hmm... well, then you're gonna fit
right in.

Give me that...
Give it back!

"Psalm 46, Verse 1."

Give it back to me, please.

You're like a classic Freudian
test case, you know that?

Preacher's daughter in love
with a boy who texts Bible quotes.

You write stupid Elvish poems.

And you're basically dating Dad.

Gross!

Remind me again why mom and dad
walked halfway across China to adopt you.

Hey, what's going on back there?

Uh, Bible study, Dad.

So, has he told
you where we're going yet?

Nope.

Don't you want to know?

Not really.

But this whole trip
is totally schizo.

Yeah.

'Cause you've been so normal
since mom died, right?

It's been just six months.

People get weird
when someone dies.

Weird like cutting your hair off
or getting drunk and stuff.

Not buying a junky RV, kidnapping
your kids, and running to Mexico.

All right...
We're not running.

And he didn't kidnap us.

He just... needs a break.

So cool!

Scott.

Uh, I think I hear a fire truck coming.

Yeah, well, we best
get out of their way.

This is Texas Ranger
Freddie Gonzalez.

I've got a ranger down, a 10-70,
at Benny's World of Liquor on 83.

It's Earl.

Earl McGraw.

Requesting emergency backup
and roadblocks at all points due south.

Suspects are Abilene bank robbers
Seth and Richie Gecko.

They're driving a black
1960s late-model Mercury cougar.

I'm 10-80 right now.

Texas Ranger...
Move over!

- Are you crazy?
- Move over!

- All right... let's move.
- All right!

Damn it.

Get back in your cars...
They already passed you.

How many cruisers you got?

Just the two right now.

Block up the 67 intersection.

Radio ahead to get someone at
the 153 and 158 junctions.

On it...
Let's get these moved.

Get me my six
as soon as you can.

What happened
back there?

Who we chasing?

Monsters.

That liquor store had to be
one of our top 10 best exits ever.

Maybe even top five.

The way that booze caught
on fire, it was like bananas flambé.

Even topped the bank.

That liquor store was supposed
to be a quick piss stop,

not a goddamn Lee Marvin moment.

And we're heading straight
for the border.

We got to get to El Rey
before the cops get organized.

You keep talking about that place
like it's the shit.

Well, that's 'cause it is.

El Rey means the King,
which is how we're gonna live.

If we ever make it there...
The border's still an hour and a half away.

By the time we get there, it'll be
swarming with badges.

Well, then, what
do you suggest, Einstein?

Lay low, ditch the heat,
let the heat die down.

There is no dying down.

You just jacked it up to high when you
turned that place into "The Wild Bunch."

Lee Marvin wasn't in
"The Wild Bunch."

It was William Holden.

And every job has
its necessary casualties.

No, Richard.

There was nothing necessary about
what happened back there.

There was nothing necessary
about what happened in Abilene, either.

What happened to you
in that bank?

You know, whenever I heard stories
in the clink about you losing your edge,

living out in the woods
like Grizzly Adams,

I never really believed them.

Nah, no way.

No... my brother's
not really a whack job.

- Don't call me that.
- Are you on drugs?

- What?
- You heard me.

What, are you tweaking?

PCP, dope...
what?

- You know I don't go for that shit.
- Then what the hell is going on with you?

You were supposed to crack the vault,
but you had to step away.

Why?

You used to be razor sharp.

That's why you were so
good with a blade.

You know, it's funny
that you should mention that.

Where the hell is my knife?

- I got rid of it.
- You did what?

I want it back.

Well, it's gone.

I swear to God, I couldn't tell
if you wanted to rape those tellers

or cut them to pieces.

Come to me.

- Something's coming.
- Something's coming?

What?
What are you talking about?

Something bad and you and the rest
are just a bunch of sheep

sleepwalking to the slaughter.

- Richie?
- Richie.

Ah, shit.

You hear it, too?

It's the girl.

The bank teller.

Remember?

Where are you now?

I don't know.

Somewhere on 83.

He won't tell us
where we're going, Kyle.

He keeps acting like we're on vacation,
but he packed all of our stuff.

It doesn't matter...
I'm coming for you.

Proverbs 3:15.

"She is more
precious than jewels.

And nothing you desire can
compare with her."

You're crazy, Kyle Winthorp.

Crazy about you.

I love you.

I love you, too.

I'll call you back, all right?

Dad, where's your wedding ring?

Oh, I, uh...

I pawned it to pay
for the Winnebago.

- You pawned your wedding ring?
- Yep.

Danny Green
gave me top dollar for it, too.

I thought about it long and
hard, believe you me,

but I remember
what your mother said.

"If I ever go before you do, don't sit
around moping about me."

So, you see, Kate, she
would have wanted us to do this.

In a way, this is her
gift to us.

Gives us a chance to explore
and maybe find our way home again.

Daddy, I'm sorry.

I guess I'll never really know what
it was like for you that night

and I understand you
not wanting to talk about it.

I already told you
what happened.

My brakes needed replacing, and I was
coming around that bend off Montgomery

- and I saw a deer and I swerved...
- That's not what I meant.

I meant about your
feelings, about how you felt.

About what you and Mom
were talking about

and why you were out that night.

Well, I don't
see why that matters.

Well, it matters to me.

Look, I know you like to grieve like you're
alone on an island sometimes,

but you're not.

We're here, too,
and we have a right to know.

What the frack, Dad?

. Okay-

This is the last time
I'm gonna say this.

I've told you both
all I care to say about that night.

Now, the subject is closed.

Nothing good is gonna come out
of dwelling on it.

Now, we're going on this trip
and we're moving on with our lives.

Is that clear?

You're right, Dad.

I won't ask any more questions.

I'll take it from here.

Y'all okay?

Look, I know you
must have been scared,

but you happen to hear where
they were headed?

I didn't hear nothing.

That's not totally true.

You've got to
forgive my friend, sir.

She's still all weirded out from the way
that freak was messing with us.

I just need to know if they
said anything before we got there,

anything about their plans.

Seth, the normal one, he kept going into
the back to talk to some guy named Carlos.

Y'all happen to catch
a last name?

No, sir.

But he seemed to
be the one planning it all.

The other one, Richie, he
was just psychotic.

The freak drew
on us with a marker.

Hold tight.

There you go.

Under the circumstances,
you did the best you could, Gonzalez.

I have reason to believe that
the older of the two, Richie,

he's the cartel
killer we've been after.

Now, hold on.

A second ago, they were
just bank robbers.

He drew the same
symbol we found at those crimes

on those two witnesses here.

That can't be a coincidence.

If I can just get a small detail
and some extra resources...

- No, there ain't gonna be no details,
- Sir.

- No resources.
- Sir!

Come on, son!
You know I have to take you off of this.

It's protocol.

There's a reason
we got protocol...

rules.

Not just to protect us from others,
but to protect us from ourselves.

That's not what Earl taught me.

Earl ain't here anymore.

Now, I know it hurts.

But trust me.

We are gonna get
those sons of bitches.

But right now, you need
to stand down.

Go and be with your family.

Can you do that for me?

Sir.

Officers.

We're never gonna
make it across the border

if she's back there making all that racket.

Yeah, this wouldn't even be a
problem if you hadn't have brought her.

If I hadn't have brought her,

we would both be pink mist
on the side of that bank in Abilene.

We do not take hostages
for a reason.

It gets messy, like Tucson.

- That was Tacoma.
- Whatever!

We should have
just left her at the door.

But for some reason, you had
to bring her along.

Nothing happened at that bank.

Then why did you
bring her to the bathroom?

'Cause I had to piss, all right?

You and your goddamn rice milk.

You came out of that john looking
like Jack fucking Torrance.

I want my knife back.

Something happened in that bank,

something that got you killing
and you haven't stopped since.

You can't trust him.

Now, you said something's
coming?

What's coming, Richard?

- What does that mean?
- Get rid of him.

You want me to kill him?

Kill Who?

Jesus, Richie,
who are you talking to?

Richie...

Stop the car.

What?

- No, I'm not...
- Do it now!

Oh, my God, Monica.

You are a treasure.

Yes, yes...
lindísima.

Morning, Violet.
Morning, Irma.

All right.

Happy Payday, people.

There you go.

For you.

- And...
- Always a happy day.

Buenos Dias, Abelardo.

Buenos.

Aren't you on vacation?

Yeah, tomorrow.

You and Leandro
must be, uh, really psyched.

You got a whole week
alone in Hawaii?

Huh?

Except you're not.

I am, it's just
things aren't great.

Ain't that why you
go on vacation?

Oh, my God.

My daughter's phone.

She must have left it in here
yesterday when she borrowed my jacket.

I'm telling you, Abe.

I may seem like I have it together here,
but the rest of my life...

Between a daughter who
thinks she owns my wardrobe

and a son who wants a rifle...

and a husband
who just got laid off...

work is vacation.

Good morning, sweetheart.

Monica,
I didn't get my paycheck.

You're gonna earn it today.

Surveillance drives.

Clear.

Richie.

You got something to say to me?

Okay, listen up.

Now, we are here to unburden
your vault of $30 million in bearer bonds

that I have it on very good authority
you received last night

bound for
oil companies in the area.

We're just gonna go ahead and
redistribute that wealth

in our general direction.

You people be nice
about it, nobody gets hurt.

Nobody gets hurt?

Lock the door...
Bring the guard.

Okay...
cell phones.

Come on.

Very good.

Where's your cell phone, sister?

In my purse over there.

- Did you pat down the women?
- I did.

I always pat down the women.

Relax...
I was a perfect gentleman.

You sure?

'Cause I've seen what time in
the slammer can do to a man's proclivities

and we're not deviants, Seth.

- Hmm.
- We're bank robbers.

Will you please go bust the back door
so we can have an easy exit?

Well, I'll be damned.

Now, there's always
a choice.

You can choose right now
to have this be a quaint little story

you tell your friends at parties
to help you get laid

or end up permanently
disfigured like your friend here.

Now, lucky for you all,
I did my homework

and all I need right
now is the vault combo.

I take it
you're Mr. Milburn?

You got to be shitting me.

What the hell are you doing?

It's horchata, man.
I found it in the kitchen.

Did you bust the back door?

Yeah, let's hit the vault.

We can't.

You cold-cocked
the guy with the combo.

All right, now Plan B.

Check the usual...

Hey!

Richie, pay attention.

She's the one.

Take her.

Please.

Hey!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, Richie!

One of these ladies knows it.

Richie, listen to me.

Put that down.

Stop!

I know the combo!

I'll give it to you, but you got to...

you got to promise
not to hurt anybody!

Hey, you stupid shit!

You could've killed us!

Hey, I'm talking to you.

Don't you walk away from me!

Goddamn whack job.

I'm not crazy.

Oh, so that's
how it's gonna be, huh?

You gonna kill me, Richie?

Like you were
gonna kill that teller?

They were right.

You really did
go soft while I was in...

Hey, I'm not done with you yet!

Okay, who's hungry?

Come on,
let's get something to eat.

You want anything?

I ain't hungry.

Suit yourself.

We're at some place called
Bob's Brisket off 83.

You on your way?

I'll take this seat.

There's some woods behind it.

Looks like
there's a service road.

I'll meet you back there.

That's pretty good...
Hand me the sauce.

Sí... Diga.

Hey,
it's me again.

You call a lot, Guero.

Yeah, well, I still got
10 million reasons for you to answer.

- What happened now?
- Richie happened.

I probably
shouldn't be saying this, but...

something ain't right with him.

He is fine, Seth.

Yeah, you keep saying that.

You keep telling me that I'm supposed to
trust him, but you're not here.

Listen to me, Seth.

I didn't front you for this job.

I fronted Los Hermanos Gecko.

And it's a package deal.

You got that?

Well, then help us get across.

Or guess what?

Neither you, nor I, nor him
will ever enjoy any of this money.

Do you understand
what I'm saying?

I'm working on it.

Now, wait a second.
Did...

Ha, I ran out of gas.

Hop in.

So, uh, so how
far are you going?

As far as you'll take me.

I can get you to Bob's Brisket,
about 10 miles down the road.

Oh, for a midday repast?

I don't know what that is,
sir, but I'm fixing to get my girl back.

You a religious man?

Yes, sir, I am.

Jesus Christ is the one,
true God.

Where I come from, there's many.

The soul chooses its god.

And it's what it does in its
service that gives that soul its flavor.

- Flavor?
- Oh, yes.

You never heard of that?

Souls are like Popsicles.

Some are sweet, some are bitter,
some are strong,

some are weak.

There's a whole rainbow
of kinds.

Might as well
come in a variety pack.

Yeah.

Yeah, cherry-lime, peach-mango,
banana-strawberry.

What flavor are you, Kyle?

Say what?

Cherry-lime.

You said you knew the combo.

I-I swear that's right.

At least it was last night.

What do you mean, "last night"?

There's a chance Mr. Milburn
may have changed it this morning.

What do you mean, changed it?

What is this, a, uh, Lando 190?

Got 6 wheels, 0-99 dial,
10 to 20 contact area.

Nothing to sneer at.

You're wasting your time.

Ah, you don't know Richie.

This one time, we pulled a job
on this rock star in New York, right?

He shall remain nameless for
statute-of-limitations reasons.

Anyway, the safe was in
Mick's studio, right?

The guy has, like,
an entire floor on Park Avenue.

Well, he's in there 2417, like, cutting
tracks or whatever the hell he does.

And he basically only ever leaves to go bang
his girlfriend in the next room, all right?

So Richie sneaks inside in this
giant-ass amp box, right?

- Shh!
- Sorry, buddy.

After, like, six hours,

the dude finally
leaves to go bang his girlfriend...

Set me free.

...35 minutes to crack
this particular...

Set me free.

Seth ...On a good day

So I put my hand on the fire alarm,
Ritchie gets to work.

Turns out, the safe is on the other side
of the wall from Mick's California King.

This chick is loud.

All right... I'm
talking rock-'n'-roll stuff.

It's nuts.

And obviously, Richie here
I mean, he needs quiet, right?

He starts timing his work
to their rhythm...

Set me free.

...we make off with a
deuce and a half in watches.

So, don't judge before you know.

Set me free.

Set me free.

Richie, are you okay?

I can't work like this.

Okay, okay...
I'm sorry.

It's my bad.
Just... just relax.

- We're...
- Don't talk to me like I'm a child.

Okay, we're cool.

I brought the drill
just in case, all right?

Now, go find some of that rice milk, take
her back to the hostages and just...

chill out.

I can crack a safe.

I can plan a job.

Please... don't hurt me.

Richie.

- You're right, you know.
- Shut up.

Cut her.

It's like he doesn't trust you.

If you know what's good for
you, you'll shut your mouth right now.

Are you sure you can trust him?

Cut her.

Cut her.

Please, no.

No.

I have a family.

Set me free.

You want me to set you free?

Please, I have a son
and a daughter.

It's all right.

Do it.

- What did you do?
- Me?

Give me that.

Shit!

Well, lucky for us
you busted the back door.

You didn't bust the back door.

Come out
with your hands up!

She knows.

Open it.

I know you can.

I'd rather watch you burn.

How'd you do that?

Got your balls on?

Screwed on tight.

Richie!

Put that thing down!

Why the hell would you
pick that up?

I thought she wanted me to.

She?

What's happening to me?

We'll stop.

- Right?
- Whadda you...

We'll stop, we'll, uh,
we'll ditch the car,

we'll get rid of the teller.

And whatever's
going on with you...

we'll fix it.

Okay?

Now, put down the goddamn dog and I'll get
you one of those Kahuna burgers you like.

Okay.

Hey, you all right?

What's all this?

That's the last bank footage they
got uploaded before they shot the drive.

I think one of these guys is the
cartel killer I've been after.

You been after?

Baby, I'm trying to get a lead here
before these guys disappear into Mexico.

Half the state of Texas
is sniff in' 'em out.

What are you gonna
do sticking your nose in?

I'll do plenty.

That's what I'm trained to do.

Trained by the best.

Baby, I know
you're all torn up about this.

But I worry about you going out
there seeing red.

You're gonna get yourself hurt.

512.

What?

512 days.

That's how
long I spent with Earl.

And that's just since we've
been partners.

Hell, I've known
that man since Little League.

He got me my first pair
of cleats.

I spent more time
with that man than anyone.

Including his family.

What about your family?

Okay.

Oh, I know...
Come here.

Yeah

You know, your daddy
can be a little thickheaded.

I love you and your mama more
than anything in this world,

but I made a promise to Earl.

Now, that don't look right,
does it, sweetie?

Says here Abilene PD
found all the employee cell phones.

So whose phone is that
she holding?

With a cute,
little, pink, bunny case.

I thought you grabbed
all the phones.

I did.

Mrs. Garza?

Well, if it ain't Tonto.

Where is she,
you son of a bitch?

She's a little tied up at the moment.

Let me make this real simple:

You touch her, I will personally
make sure you spend so much time

In the hole, your own brother won't
recognize you when you get out.

Well, you got to catch me first.

What are you thinking?

Did you get that, Tony?

- Got it.
- Yes!

Ferdinand?

I'm making pot roast.

I'll be home for dinner.

Careful.

Kate, come back!

Where are you,
Katie-cakes?

Kate, what are you doing?

Kate, what the hell?

You were gonna leave me, too?

What's going on here?

She texted him.

I saw her.

Tattletale.

Sorry you had to
drive all the way out here, son.

I do appreciate your concern
for my daughter, but...

this is a family matter.

It's-it's none
of your business.

All due respect, Kate
made it my business.

She's downright scared
the way you just packed her up

and took her out of her
life like that.

Now, listen, I know your
family for a long time now from church.

Now, I don't want to have to
call them up

on account of you giving
me any kind of trouble out here.

- Go ahead.
- Daddy, don't you dare.

Call 'em.

Now, Kyle, you're a good boy.

Don't do anything
to betray that.

You're the traitor.

Reverend.

What kind of man up
and abandons his congregation?

Abandons it?

What's he talking about, Dad?

He didn't tell you?

I talked to my mom.

He quit the parish for good.

You said it was just a break.

When were you gonna tell us?

Soon as the time was right.

But why, Dad?

Why would you quit?

Answer him.

Answer him, or I swear to God,
I will get in Kyle's truck

and I will never look back.

If you're a man of the cloth,
be it any cloth,

not a day goes by that
you don't look in the mirror

and wonder, "Am I a fraud?"

What are you talking about, Dad?

A shepherd can't lead his flock
if he's lost the path himself.

Are you saying that
you don't believe anymore?

I told you, come on...
Let's go now!

Let go of her.

Young man, let go of her.

Let go of her, young man!

Kyle, Stop!
Stop it!

Stop it!
What are you doing?

What has gotten into you?

Don't let him fool you!

He's my dad!

I want you to leave.

Now!

Fine.

So long.

You and your
rice-monkey brother.

No!

Bunch of freaks.

You deserve each other.

Let's go, kids.

Come on, let's go.

You've done good,
cherry-lime.

- Got your balls on?
- Screwed on tight.

Don't shoot or I'll kill her.

Please, no!

Hey.

Richie.

Here's to getting rich and fat.

And dying in
the arms of a beautiful woman.

That's right.
