Kingdom (2014–…): Season 3, Episode 5 - Please Give - full transcript

I've never broken down before.

I always hold up.

I've always been proud of that.

Hey.

Hi.

I never looked down the road,

forward or back.

There's nothing to see, zero visibility.

That's how I live.

Yeah, you can have a strategy, but...

forget about a plan.



Forget about what you want in life.

You don't know.

Focus on yourself.

Be honest.

Assess who you are...

...who you're with.

Are you alone?

Do you deserve to be?

Where do you fit into this world?

How are you gonna survive?

Maybe you won't.

Maybe good things are coming.

And then let it go.

Don't examine it. Don't take it apart.



Just accept it.

You gotta think like a Stoic...

...which boils down to enduring
life's ass-whippings

without complaint.

That's how I live.

I put my head down and I fucking grind.

But don't ever think you're safe,

'cause when your head's down,

that's when you get caught.

And we all get caught.

Well, shit, I thought we had fun.

Well, shit, we did.

What time is it?

Too early.
You should go back to bed.

You were snoring like crazy last night.

I took a pill.

It's worse when you drink.

When are you
coming home tonight?

I don't know.

You should eat without me.

I'll call you later.

Bye.

Bye.

Alvey, how are you?

You tell me.

According to the MRI,
you have a lot of scar tissue...

uh, primarily around
your neck and rotator cuffs.

Not unexpected given your line of work.

What I'm not seeing is
any real structural damage,

bulging discs or joint arthritis.

Really nothing that would account

for the type of pain you're describing

or the tingling
and weakness in your hands.

Well, I'm not making this shit up.

I mean, what the fuck could it be?

I can't say for sure,

but I want you to see a neurologist.

Why?

Think of this as a murder case.
We're just eliminating suspects.

What do you think it is?

Don't know.

Come on, I'm not gonna fucking
sue you or anything.

Just tell me what you think it is.

I'm not seeing anything here
that leads me to a diagnosis.

Well, you must have a theory, Doc.

I mean, you're sending me
to a neurologist.

We're just covering our bases.

Look, I'm a fighter, man.

I-I-I...

You think maybe it's ALS? Parkinson's?

Those are very rare diseases.

I've had a lot of concussions,
more than I can count.

And some of these symptoms are
in line with... with...

Alvey, you're getting way ahead
of yourself.

Tell me it's not.

Tell me it's not.

You can't.

Let's investigate this a little further

before you start to panic.

You're gonna see Dr. Amato at UCLA,

and we'll get to the bottom of this.

In the meantime, stay off
the Internet. Try to relax.

Yeah.

- You want a Xanax?
- Yes.

All right. Jesus.

How you doing, sir?
Sorry to bother you like that.

- How are you today?
- Good.

My man reading the Bible.

Um, my name is Leonard. This is Jacob.

- What's your name?
- Ryan.

Ryan. Ryan, nice to meet you, man.

- Hey, is that your car out there?
- Yeah.

It's sick, man. What... what
kind of wheels you got on there?

I don't know. It came like that.

- Oh, it's a V8, right?
- Can I help you... Leonard?

Yeah. Um, we're from

the Reading Lights
Child Literacy Program.

What we do is take inner-city children

who don't have the methods or means

to obtain a proper education

and we get books in their hands.

We'd like to know if you'd be willing

to make a small donation
to help that cause.

I'm so sorry, man. I'm in a hurry today.

But, you know, it seems like
a good cause, man.

- Good luck, dude.
- You're not interested

in helping a child learn to read?

I mean, you've obviously
been blessed in your life.

You can't give a few dollars?

We need a credit card.

Then I can't help you, man. I'm sorry.

Come on, man, you got a credit card.

How'd you buy that big-ass TV
back there?

Okay, okay, you guys need
to get off my property.

You got so much,
and you can't give a little?

That's fucked up.

You need to go.

Goodbye. Thank you.

- Rafael, are you done?
- Yeah.

The first one was 14 pounds.

Thanks, man.

- Hey, man, can I get a, um...
- burrito?

Thank you. You have salsa?

We all have demons.

Greed. Jealousy. Rage.

These demons whisper.

They whisper vice into our ears.

Alcohol.

Drugs.

Doughnuts.

These vices

are the devil's tools of oppression

that stand between us...

and our loving God.

We have a guest today.

Please introduce yourself.

My name is, uh, Dominick.

- Hey, what's up, man?
- Yeah, man.

You guys can call me, uh, Dom.

I'm, uh... new to Los Angeles.

Ryan, uh, was kind enough
to invite me here.

We're blessed to have you, brother.

What vice does
the devil tempt you with, huh?

Women.

The wrong women.

We're always filling
up that cup, aren't we?

It's never enough.

Maybe it's because you don't feel loved.

But, brother... you are.

God loves you, Dom.

Know that.

Know it.

Hey, girls, family meeting.
In the living room now.

What'd they say about Terry?

Would you get them all in here, please?

Guys, Christina wants to talk to us!

What's up?

Where's Haley?

- She's doing a show.
- Okay, everybody, take a seat.

First off, I'm not your maid.

Pick up your stuff or I'm giving
it all to Goodwill.

Is Terry okay or what?

Yes. He's gonna be
in the hospital a few days.

What's wrong with him?

He has Hepatitis C,
which he's been ignoring,

and that's very dangerous.

You... you all have to be tested.

He wears condoms, and you can't
get it through blowjobs.

I-I don't care.

You're all getting tested
every two weeks.

You girls have to think about
your life after this.

If you get something,
nobody's gonna want you. Okay?

Now... You two, uh,

you two have a cam show at 5?
What are you doing?

Uh, if we're not shooting
till later, I'm gonna nap.

Or you could squeeze in a solo show.

Just do a half an hour.

- Fine.
- Thank you.

Okay, 7:00 on the dot.

And pick up your shit.

Before we go, Ryan would like
to say a few words

for a friend of his
who's going through a hard time.

Young man named Keith. Ryan?

Thanks. Yeah. Keith's a buddy of mine,

uh, I met right after prison, and...

We were roommates.

Um...

He... he had some...

He's kind of a weird guy.

Definitely some strikes
against him.

So he's fat.
He's low-level sex offender.

He can't socialize for shit. And he's...

And I'm pretty sure he's never been laid

or... even close.

He killed a man.

He's, um...

He's killed two men.

And I don't know why.

And I'm not making excuses
for what he did.

He's gotta pay for it,
and... and he will.

His life... his life is over.

Um... But... I do question God.

I question what my friend's life
was supposed to be about.

Was nothing supposed to go his way?

Was he supposed to...

was he supposed to see
his mother murdered?

Was he supposed to be
a target his whole life?

Made fun of. Humiliated. Left out.

Just lonely as shit.

'Cause if he was, I mean,
he fucking nailed it.

Um...

He had no one.

I just...

It's hard for me to understand

why God would put someone on this Earth

just to suffer.

Hmm. Wow.

We can't understand.

Um, but it's okay.

It's okay to question God. I do.

God has a plan.

And He has a plan for Keith, too.

Ryan...

Trust.

Trust.

Prayers sent for brother Keith.

Let us pray.

I believe in God...

...the Father Almighty,

creator of Heaven and Earth

and Jesus Christ, His only son...

Bring it on, bitch!

Move the head.

...high for the fence.

Stand up! Stand up! Stand up!

Lay down! On the side! On the side!

Go!

Fuck is this?

Hey.

Thank you. Take care, Nicole.

What's up?

The fuck's that?

Protein powder?

Did you tell Dom he could
sell that in my gym?

No. What are you talking about?

What am I talking about?

You didn't see
the fucking gigantic stand

- right by the door right there?
- No, I didn't.

I'll handle it.

- Where the fuck is he?
- He doesn't have class until tonight.

You better take care
of this fucking guy.

I'm telling you, I got him up to here.

Okay.

Hey, wait.
Nate got offered a fight. CFL.

- When?
- Saturday.

With who?

- Charlie Nauta? He's 6-0.
- Yeah.

Yeah, I know. He's tough.

They need an answer by tonight.

Did you talk to Nate?

He wants it. And he can make weight.

Good.

- Great.
- I'll get him ready.

You better hope you
find your boy before I do.

Hey. I really appreciate today.

Yeah, man.

How often do you guys meet?

Twice a week. I don't always go.

Well, it's good to know
it's there, right?

You get that... get that tune-up.

Get right with God, you know.

Yeah, I guess so.

What the fuck you smiling at?

- Oh.
- What?

Oh. You're a very interesting
cat, brother.

You have layers to you.

You know that?

Some people might see that
a certain way.

You know, they say you're cocky,
you got that little swagger.

I can tell you're humble.

You hold yourself to a higher standard.

And maybe that rubs people
the wrong way. Fuck 'em.

All right? Fuck 'em.

I don't really give a shit
how people see me.

I saw that, um,

that video piece they did of you
and your pop a while back.

Remember that?

Oh, that's just some...
you know, just promo shit, man.

Yeah? It spoke to me.

My pops got sick, and, um...
You know, he... he...

yeah, he suffered a lot
before he passed...

You want another drink, then?

- You okay?
- Yeah.

Yeah. Hey, let me get...

- I'm gonna get this. Hey...
- I... I got it.

I got it. I got it. I got it.
What is it, Blood and Sand?

- Fuck is that? It's Voodoo Juice.
- Voodoo Juice.

- Not too sweet.
- Yeah, yeah.

Sorry, wrong answer.

All right. You ready to go home?

- Leg!
- Uhh!

Lift! Nice! Nice! Nice!

Off the fence. Off the fence.
Move it around. Move it around.

There we go. Go, go.

Work the body! Work the body!
Work the body!

Come on! Come on! Nice!

Go for the leg!

Work that leg! Work that leg!

Time, time, time, time, time,

You okay?

Come on! Open the doors.
Open the doors.

Get back to work! Get back to work!

Back to fucking work!

All right, give me a minute,
then get out of here.

Hey. What's going on?

I can't train.

Why not? Are you hurt?

- Call Garo.
- Why?

I'm fucked up.
You gotta get me out of this.

Alvey, this is a million-dollar fight.

I don't give a fuck
how much money it is.

If I can't train, I can't fight.

- I'm not gonna fucking embarrass myself.
- Why can't you train?

I don't know.

Just fucking call Garo,
all right? Call him.

Just fucking call and tell him I'm hurt.

- Tell him... tell him...
- I'm not doing that.

- Tell him I tore up my fucking back.
- I'm not gonna do it. I'm not doing that.

Fuck the 10%, Lisa.

Just fucking call Garo.

If you don't fucking call Garo,
I'll call him. It's your choice.

That medication that you
were on, it was for a reason.

- You have a chemical imbalance.
- No, Lisa, that's not what it is!

Now either you're gonna
fucking call Garo,

or I'm gonna do it myself.

I'll do it.

Good. Tell him I apologize.

I know it's a big fucking card,
and... and... and...

I don't know what else to say.
I don't know what else to say.

Okay.

- Yeah.
- Hey. I'm sorry I missed your call.

Uh, you missed a couple of 'em.

Yeah, that's my bad. My bad.
Poor choice.

What's going on with you?

Where are you?

I'm grabbing lunch with Ryan.

Are you fucking kidding me?

He asked me to come to his Bible study.

I don't know what you want me to do.

When are you coming in?

Well, I got a... I got a class at 8.

Uh, well, come see me before. Okay?

Am I in trouble?

Mm, we're gonna have
a little conversation about

the fucking protein powder
display you put up.

What about it?

I'll talk to you
when you get here. Okay?

Hey.

This guy bothering you? Huh?

Not yet.

I gotta go. Lisa's calling me
back to the gym.

Hey, man, do you mind finding
another ride?

I... Katie's getting off
in a couple hours,

and she was begging me to stay.

I-I don't wanna disap...
You know, I can't just...

- Jesus Christ,
- I want your fucking life. Look at that.

- For Katie.
- It's for Katie.

Hey, Katie? This is
a prizefighter right here.

You're gazing upon greatness.

Yeah, I'll keep that in mind.

You have a good time, huh?

Yeah. Hey. Hey, Dom.

It was good
having you there today, dude.

Um, I'm sorry about your father.

- Thanks.
- Yeah.

Hey, I-I wanna... I wanna come
again, if you don't mind.

- Any time.
- All right, cool.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Hey, uh, Dom.

Hey, why is... why is Lisa
calling you back to the gym?

You know, you don't have a class
till 8, right?

She's mad at me.

I put up the, uh, the display
of my protein powder.

I didn't ask her.
So it's fucking on me, right?

- That's it?
- Yeah. That's it. Why?

Yeah? Well, it's just, Juan saw
you guys leave the other night.

I was seeing if it was
something more personal.

No. We just had a drink. That's it.

Cool.

Hey, it's me. Um, I'm just checking in.

We're on lunch right now,

so I just thought
I'd try and... and catch you.

Um, it's a, it's a TV show about...

World War II nurses at a Nazi hospital,

but they're spying for the Americans,

And everybody's fucking each other.

Lot of costumes. Lot of costumes.

But, um, I spoke to the producer.

I told him that you were an actress,

and he said that he'd keep you in mind.

So, you know, who knows where
that could go?

We'll see.

Anyways, the P.A. said that they
are going to wrap early tonight,

so I'd love to just be able
to give Maya a kiss

before she went down.

But if obviously it's too late,
then that's fine, too.

I love you.

Bye-bye.

Okay, girls, listen up.

They have you for three hours.

That's all they paid for,
that's all they get.

If they try get you
to stay longer, tell them no.

We've shot here before. They're cool.

I'm not finished.

They try to ask you to do something

you're not comfortable with,

politely tell them
to fuck right off and call me.

They did not buy the right
to do anything they want to you.

Got it?

Text me the second you're done.

Bye.

See ya.

Hey.

Sorry I'm late. Had to get my car.

You really pissed about this?

Yeah, I am.

That's why your shit's out here.
I want it gone now.

I apologize. I should've...
I should've asked you.

You're not sorry.

I am sorry. I should've gone
through the proper channels.

- Yeah.
- I just...

I thought you were in charge.

Oh, no, I am in charge,
and you work for me.

You're not gonna manipulate
this situation.

I'm not.

- Yeah, you are. I know exactly what
you're doing. - No, no, no, no. I'm not.

I don't appreciate you
questioning my character, okay?

"Your character"?

- That's not fair. That's not fair.
- Give me a break.

Listen, I'm not I'm not trying
to fucking manipulate you!

I'm trying to get fucking paid!

You know what? Fuck this. Fuck this.

I'm sorry. Come again?

What are you saying?
What are you saying? Fuck what?

You leave me alone right now?
Leave me alone.

I need you to take off
for a couple of days.

- Can't afford it.
- I'll pay you.

No, fuck that, I earn my money.
I work for it, right?

- Yeah, I need you to stay home.
- Why?

'Cause I need you to stay out
of Alvey's way

- for a couple of days.
- Why do I gotta do that?

I don't know. So he doesn't
fucking murder you?

I'll talk to him right now.

- I'll talk to him man to man, right now.
- God. No.

- Where is he?
- Dom. Dom, go home. Dom.

I got respect for him. Where is he?

I need you to get the fuck outta here!

Okay.

I'm actually right around
the corner from you.

You alone?

- Uh-huh.
- Oh.

I think you should come see me.

I should?

Can I give you a bit of advice?

You know, just for the next girl.

Oh, please.

Women don't like to be told
what they should do.

Just...

get the fuck over here, all right?

I got a good bottle of wine.

I can't stay long.

I'll take what I can get.

Have you ever been knocked out?

Never ask a man that.

You know, when I was in high school,

my friends and I used
to choke each other out.

- Why would you do that?
- To get high.

You wake up, you wouldn't know
what had happened.

Always made me feel like
I was gonna come.

Actually, it made you feel like
you were gonna die.

Ohh. I hope it feels like that.

I've never hit anybody in the face.

You'd love it.

Don't you feel bad?

- About what?
- Well, hurting people.

- Do you feel bad when you make a drink?
- That's not the same.

I bet you've ruined more lives
than I have.

Probably true.

Tell me what it's like.

What does it feel like to...

...commit violence?

- I can't.
- Why not?

It's a matter of personal context.

My experience would be
different than yours.

Does it feel...

powerful?

Sometimes.

Sometimes it makes me feel sick.

I've never even slapped anybody.

Do you want to slap me?

Can I?

No. I don't get hit for free.

The fuck?

Fucking hit me. Fucking hit me!
Fucking hit me!

- Yeah, you like that?!
- Yeah.

- ♪ The younger the couple, the tighter
the squeeze ♪ -

Aah!

Hey, come on!

- ♪ Cha, cha, cha, ra-cha-cha,
cha-cha, cha ♪ -

I love these.

Any idea why your mom sent 'em?

Not a fucking clue.

Oh. Maybe she's reaching out?

When was the last time you two talked?

Two... three years ago, maybe?

- Alvey.
- What? It's not me, it's her.

You know, she's... she doesn't
approve of the man I've become.

Well, she's an old lady.

I am an old man.

Are you gonna call her?

Mnh-mnh.

Not a chance. She wants
to talk, she can call me.

I'm not gonna... decode
her cryptic bullshit. No.

Anyway...

I was cute, huh?

What were you doing out tonight?

- Just minding my own business.
- Oh.

We're still gonna do that "don't
ask, don't tell" bullshit, huh?

How are your hands?

My hands are killing me.

My hands are killing me.

- Everything fucking hurts.
- Did you see a doctor?

I did see a doctor.

And he... makes a guess

and then he passes you on
to another doctor.

It's a fucking joke. Big scam.

I'm sorry. That's frustrating.

It's not that bad. I'll be okay.

This makes it better.

- Fuck!
- Hey! Don't...

- Fucker!
- Stop! Stop! Stop!

Put the fucking gun down!

I forgot the code for the alarm!

Easy. Easy.

You wanna put it down?

Jeez.

How did you get in here?

Made a key.

You made a fucking key?
What is wrong with you?

I made a key.

Give me the key.
You don't need a fucking key.

Okay. You wanna put the gun down?

What are you doing here?

I came to apologize to you. Okay?

And listen, I was unprofessional

and I was act... I was acting
like a knucklehead.

You know what I mean?
It's just hard, you know,

when someone's wagging a finger at you.

You know, you know you're wrong. Right?

Jesus Christ.

And my pride got the best of me.

You know, just...

I'm sorry.

Yeah, it's fine. Shit happens, right?

I still need you to take some time off.

Yeah. And when you come
back, clean slate, okay?

Cool.

- It's done. Thank you.
- You scared the shit out of me.

You fucking
scared the shit out of me.

Hey, can I ...can I ask you a question?

Sure.

Why are you so cold to me?

I'm not being cold.

You act...

- you act like nothing happened.
- Why are we talking about this?

Am I... am I... am I missing something?

- God, please, stop talking. No.
- No, all I'm saying...

Am I missing something here?

I mean, weren't... weren't we
just fucking in the...

- in the parking lot? You know what?
- Please stop talking.

Just please.

If I remember correctly,
you were eager to fuck.

You were eager to fuck me.
You had my cock in your mouth

- before the car was...
- Fuck you!

Okay, listen. Um, I'm gonna be
really clear with you.

We fucked once.

It will never happen again.
Do you understand that?

Whatever you want. You're, you know...

- You're in charge.
- And no one can know about it.

Mm-hmm.

Great.

I don't know how long
that's gonna be for.

What? Hey!

What? What do you mean?

Somebody saw me and you
leaving the other night,

and they told Ryan.
He asked me about it.

- What did you say?
- I said we had a drink.

- And what the fuck did he say?
- He didn't say shit. Okay?

- He just gave me a fucking look.
- Oh, fuck.

Yeah, that's fucked. Really fucked.

It's fucking you and Ryan,
you and Alvey, me and you.

It's fucking dramatic, man.
It's fucking too much.

I can't deal with this fucking bullshit.

Shit.

Fucking...

Fucking...

Amy.

- Amy, come on. What are you doing?
- I waited so you could say goodbye.

You're not going anywhere.
Where you going?

Home. I'm going home.

You are home.

I'm going to Madison to be
with my parents.

- But not tonight. Not tonight.
- Yes, tonight.

I waited so that you could say goodbye.

You're not driving tonight.

Hold your daughter, Jay. We're leaving.

What?

What are you gonna say this time?

Pfft. Come on.

Go hold your daughter, Jay.
We're leaving.

Amy.

Amy, just please.
Please, please, please, please.

Why do you still talk to me?

That's a loaded one.

I wasn't good to you.

Hey, I was too high to notice.

I've been thinking about you
a lot, you know. A lot.

Our marriage.

How bad I treated you.

I know I put that needle
in your arm, Christina.

I know I did.

I have to go.

- Thanks for the wine.
- Take the bottle.

That's okay.

Let me walk you to the car.

Alvey...

I've slept on streets
you wouldn't drive down.

I can walk to my car alone.

Get some sleep.

Mm.

Motherfuckers.

What the fuck?

Fuck.

How the fuck...

Piece of shit.

Aah!

Look out! Go! Go! Go!
Go! Go! Go! Go!

Fuck!

Go! Go! Fence! Jump the fence!

Move! Move! Move! Move!

Aah!

The fuck off me or I'm-a fuck you up!

9-1-1 emergency. Hello?

I have, uh, I have a guy
who needs help right now.

I need an ambulance right away.

I got... This fucking guy broke
into my house,

and I fucked him up really badly.

He's not fucking moving right now.
Fuck!

I need an ambulance to come
take care of this guy.

He's unconscious. He's outside.
He's unconscious.

He's not... he's not breathing.
I don't know, man.

I... He's not breathing
and he's not fucking moving.

What do I do? It's my fucking...
it's in my...

it's in my front yard.
Just fucking trust me

and get an ambulance here
as... as fast as you can

so you can figure this shit out.

Motherfucker. Wake up,
motherfucker. Can you hear me?

Fuck, man! Come on!
Come on, fucking wake up, dude!

This... Hey! Hey!

Okay, listen... okay, listen...
listen to me. Listen to me.

This motherfucker is going to die, okay?
