Patriot (2015–…): Season 1, Episode 4 - John's To-Do List 5/18/12 - full transcript

In Luxembourg, Leslie attempts to set John up for failure by increasing his workload just as John's real job requires immediate and critical action. An old friend arrives and further complicates John's life.

Niles Cox up on the sideline.

Niles Cox shoots.

Goal!

Goal!

- Stop!
- Stay right there!

You wouldn't want
to be a Jaywick man

stuck in south Essex today.

Nastiest rivalry
in the Premiere League.

And the underdog, Jaywick
Sands, up by two goals.

Goal!

Jaywick Sands! The Big Man!



The Big Man!

Gravesroad. South Essex.

Jaywick Sands! Jaywick Sands!

Is wonderful! Is wonderful!

Big Man?

- Big Man?
- Big Man?

- Big Man!
- Big Man!

Big Man Niles Cox!

Big Man!

Hello. Here, please,
Big Man Niles Cox.

Okay.

Now, go back where
you came from Paki?

Is wonderful!

It's full of tits...



Jaywick Sands! Jaywick Sands!

Is wonderful! Is wonderful!

It's full of tits,
fanny, we're united!

Jaywick Sands is wonderful!

John.

I can take that from you now.

Thank you.

- You're staying here?
- Yeah, you?

I'm in the William
of Orange room.

I'm in Oscar, King of Sweden.

We could have met in the lobby.

Thank you.
The Cleric is indebted to you.

Leave your hotel tomorrow.

You'll transfer the bag
to Al-Mashad on the 19th.

Budy-buddy?

What?

Buddy-buddy With La Croix?

You're buddy-buddy?

Well, listen.

I'll be throwing five plates

of the Denon presentation
your way.

So you'll be performing that...

You'll be performing that for
Denon, for Lawrence, for all of us,

at 3 P.M. Luxembourg time.

That's 17 hours from now.

That'll give your buddy a chance
to see you do your thing.

I haven't prepared
any plate work.

Well, good luck.

Buddy.

What's with the gear?

The helmet helps
reduce the swelling

Steven will encounter
at high elevations.

- You excited about coming to Luxembourg?
- Yeah.

Don't lose your helmet, Steven.
I won't.

- Well, you did this morning.
- Just for an hour.

Hey! Don't sass!

Have you seen her?

Therapist girl?

I love her. I'm certain.

Hey, sweetheart.
Everything is cool.

Um, one good thing.

Um, I made a new friend

at this job.

It's a guy named Dennis.

Somebody shot him.

Hey, there's...

There's something
I've been meaning to tell you,

and it's kind of hard to say.

What are you worried about, hon?

He's not okay.

I wanna go and see him.

Look, I know he's in Milwaukee.

I could be three in three hours.

And how do you know this?

It's just... A dumb pen.

You brought it.

There's a woman in Europe.

She's investigating this thing...

This incident
that John's connected to.

She's gotten footing.

Nothing meaningful, but footing.

And, Alice, she cannot connect

the person that John's
positioned as right now

to John Tavner.

And she cannot connect him
to you.

It means his freedom.

Something happened,
and it means his freedom.

He called you, I know,
from this place on this night.

You've already broken the rules.

No, I didn't, Tom.

But John did.

For the first time.

We have this principle
we use when we're trying

to locate someone who doesn't
want to be discovered.

You are what you
can't stop doing.

What that means...

If we discover what someone
is passionate about,

then that person and that thing

will intersect.

Passion involves compulsion.

And people...
All people have compulsions

that draw them away
from their safety

and their best interests.

People and what they love
don't always intersect.

People and their compulsions do.

And John, well,
he's compelled toward you.

He's crazy about you.

And if this woman learns that
and follows you

to your impending point
of intersection,

well, then that's the end
of all of it, honey.

So, I'm sorry,

but I can't allow you two
to intersect.

I wanna look out for him.

Because...

Why?

Because I don't think anyone's
looking out for him, Dad.

I am.

I'll go to him now.

Okay, hon?

I'll go right now.

- Don't let go.
- I got you.

- Are you holding on?
- Yes.

- Dad?
- I'm here.

It's one man.

- And you say that he...
- Took off.

- With your attaché materials?
- Yes.

- Which are?
- Maps.

- Of?
- Lands.

Which?

I don't know
that I'm allowed to say.

- You are.
- Hot spots.

Madagascar.

Um, El Dorado.

That's a city of lore.

- What?
- It doesn't exist.

Yeah. Right.

I... I meant Spain.

I had so many maps in there...

Anyway, it was akin to...

Do you have purse
snatchings here?

Seldom.

Well, it was like that.

Akin to.

They just ran by,
snatched my bag.

That was that.

Did you fight?

I fought like hell.

I asked to interview you

because your attack happened
in the radius of a murder

on the same evening
of the murder

within the same hour.

Wow.

I'm afraid I told you everything
I can about that evening.

I can't believe all that money
fit in this pillow.

I may have seemed
a little nervous

back there at TSA.

It's cool.

I just want you to know that
fainting isn't a sign of weakness.

It's just a sign that your bod

doesn't have the support system

to cross the finish line.

Okay.

Thanks.

You have more than piping
on your mind.

Stressed?

So?

Can I show you something?

Something that helps me?

Let me see your Blackberry.

The day planning feature.
Let's take a look.

What's the most important thing
you have to accomplish today?

Do you remember
there was a sum of money?

I handed it off,
and we can't find the guy now.

So... what?

So I have to find him...

before he uses the money to...

I need to find him today.

Okay, what's the second
most important thing?

Probably Leslie's
fuckin' plate thing.

- Westphalia Odeon at the King Gerald hotel.
- What?

The conference is at
the Westphalia Odeon.

It's... It's wondrous.

It's... It's like
a hundred Harbaughs.

Great.

Fuck.

Hey, let's tackle it.

What's the first task today?

First task up?

Well, I have to capture a guy.

Tape him up. Yeah.

Then put him in this bag.

How long does that take
typically?

Taping a man?

I don't know.
I've never done it before.

Probably a lot.

It's probably hard.

You wanna put, like...

four minutes?

Whatever.

Well, I mean, it's not whatever.

John, we're making a schedule.

I'm just gonna put four minutes.

Hey, don't put "capture a guy."

Well, what should I put?

I don't know.

- Put "CG."
- Okay.

Good code.

For your ringtone,
I'm just gonna pick

a random reminder
from my cloud, okay?

What do you have
for the rest of the day?

- A lot.
- Yeah. Good.

Yeah, that's why
we're doing this,

so you can do a lot.

You are one minute
behind schedule.

I'm gonna grab Barros

and get him to Edward right away.
Then what?

And then I'll meet these
brothers sometime that day,

and I'll get them to take
the money I'm bringing over.

If I have the little brother,
right?

There's a threat.
If there's no threat,

they'll just keep asking
for the red bag,

or they'll go to the detective
and fuck everything up.

All right. Don't get defensive.

It's just a little weird,
putting a guy in a bag.

- You know...
- What?

That's not a fair
technique in an argument

to call someone defensive.

It's a great technique,

because they can't argue
with you after that.

They have to stop arguing
or they'll sound defensive.

Just make sure you get him
to Edward that morning,

because you have to get
to the bagman straight away.

- Hey, man.
- Hey.

- I'm glad to see you.
- Yeah.

- I gotta get this bag off.
- Yeah.

Yeah, I can't take it.

- What?
- Yeah, I can't.

- Can't what?
- Take the bag.

Fuck, man. What?

Yeah, can't.
Someone's following me.

- And I can't talk to you.
- Man. Fuck.

Yeah. Fuck.

- I got stuff to do.
- Yeah. It sucks.

You are 22 minutes
behind schedule.

Fuck, man.

Now, I'm sure the bagman
checked out of the King Gerald.

He knows you'll be looking
for him.

But you're gonna find him
that morning.

How? How would someone find you?

Well, if someone really knew me,

I post sometimes on
the same forum, I guess.

Neo-traditional music forum.

I'm in a fight
with this guy, Greg12,

about whether Willie Nelson
fucked up Pancho and Lefty.

Don't pick a fight with Willie.

I'm not.

Who doesn't love Willie?

No one. I do.

I'm not in a fight
with Willie Nelson.

I'm in a fight with Greg12,
because I like the original.

Someone could catch me
doing that,

fighting on that website,

and maybe find me that way,
if they knew me.

Well, stop doing that.

Yeah. I always plan
to... then I don't.

I want to get the final
word in with Greg12.

Greg12 is probably 12.

You want to jeopardize
everything

because of fight
with a 12 year old?

Yeah, I see your... Yeah.

So there's a noonday game.

The Jaywick thing?

He grew up in South Essex.

It's their rivalry game today.

Hemsby Palace.

If you're from that city...

You know how people say
"the big game"?

It's that kind of game.

You think he's going to
leave $11 million on its own?

And go to a bar
and watch soccer?

- Yes.
- Why?

The same reason you're fighting

with a 12 year old, I'd say.

It's only being telecast
at the one pub there.

The Bishop.

Jaywick Sands! Jaywick Sands!

Is wonderful! Is wonderful!

Jaywick Sands is wonderful!

It's full of tits...

You are one hour
and seventeen minutes

behind schedule.

Jaywick Sands!

Is wonderful! Is wonderful!

Jaywick Sands! Jaywick Sands!

Is wonderful! Is wonderful!

Um, hey! Hey, man!

Hey! That's my bag, man.

- Hey, sorry, man.
- Go away.

Wait, wait, wait. Come here.

You deliver food
for them, the Bishop?

Fish and chips.

- To where?
- Anywhere.

- Hotels?
- I can't say.

- I can't...
- This week? Any hotels this week?

I can't say, can't say.

Any this week?

- Any this week?
- Hotel Cortez, 604.

Fuck.

Confront Barros Brothers.

You are two hours and forty
minutes late for this task.

Meet Denon Team for drinks.

You are one hour and one
minute late for this task.

Leslie's Fucking Plate Thing.

The King Gerald Hotel.

This task is 27 minutes
from now.

He used his computer here
six days ago.

A Mr. John Tyhmens?

He fights with a little kid
on a website we like

about Willie Nelson.

He did that from here.

Last week. A Mr. John Tyhmens.

I checked on I.S.P.

We had no Tyhmens.

Mr. John Lakeman.

He resembles Mr. John Lakeman
who stayed here last week.

- Mr. John Lakeman?
- Mr. John Lakeman.

He is due back.

- Mr. John Lakeman.
- Yes. Today.

- This guy?
- Mr. John Lakeman.

Yes.

Good.

You can keep that.

You sure?

Sure. Do you like music?

Sure.

You're gonna like that.

Leslie's Fucking Plate Thing.

The King Gerald Hotel.

This task is two minutes
from now.

Hey, sorry, man.
I just slipped her.

Fuck.

Who's this guy?

This is my brother.

- Hey, man.
- This is my friend Dennis.

It's okay. He knows a bunch
of shit he shouldn't know.

I had to borrow his pee.

Never mind.

Hey, can someone take this bag?

Yeah.

Let's get in there.

You got a plate presentation
to make.

- Jesus, fuck.
- I got it. No problem.

I could fuck with this thing on.

Hi.

How are you?

You like music?

Great. Then you're
gonna love this.

- Crush it.
- Tie it down.

Fuck it.

That's the long
and short of it, folks.

And now to explain the core
of Donnely nut plate spacing

and cracked reconfiguration,

my associate, John Lakeman.

Hey, guys. Hey.

Ready to talk plate processing

and residue transport
plate funneling?

Why don't we start
with joust jambs?

Hey, why not?

Plates and jousts?

Can we couple them?

Hell, yeah, we can.

Want to know how?

Get this.

Proprietary to McMillan.

Only us. Ready?

We fit Donnely nut
spacing grip grids

and splay-flexed brace columns

against beam-fastened
derrick husk nuts

and girdle plate Jerries,

while plate flex tandems
press task apparati

of 10 vertpin-plated pan traps

at every maiden clamp plate
packet.

Knuckle couplers plate alternating
sprams from the T-Nut

to the S.K.N to the chim line.

Whoa.

Yeah.

That is the McMillan Way.

And it's just another day
at the office.

Yes.

How will you account
for lift slippage

if your girdle plate Jerries
cross the prim fixture?

You mean the prasm span
fixture rig, guy?

Yes. Sorry. Oui.

We haven't been using prims
since 2004.

This guy, right?

Let's get serious.

Hunched Howzer heat rails.

Let's talk about 'em.

I gotta get something back.
It's got my photo on it.

- Um, what?
- Something that's not normal.

I'm supposed to be
a normal piper here.

Get that safe open.

The 11 million bucks aren't in there.
It's too small.

His passport might be.
Keep him stuck here.

Weren't you supposed to meet
with this dude's brothers today?

I put it on his schedule.

What do you do
at the Milwaukee thing?

I'm a normal piper.

Mr. John Lakeman.

A police detective
left this for you.

We should just drop it
out the window

like in cartoons.

You know what?

I mean...

What?

I've just been wondering

in this moment
after you said that

why so many safes
fall out of windows

in cartoons.

Why the fuck are safes falling
out of windows so much?

Maybe the basis for that

is that that's how people
would get them open.

That could be
the basis for that.

Yeah. That's what I'm saying.

Maybe people were trying
to open them that way.

That forms the basis
for the cartoons.

Which, you know,

the best ones,
they always reflect real life.

Yeah, true.

- All clear! Go for it!
- Cool.

This is like MythBusters!

- Have you seen that show?
- What?

Have you seen the show
MythBusters?

- No. Is it good?
- It is.

What's the...
What's the basis of it?

Well, it's these two guys...

Well, it's a little team,

and, they put myths to the test.

Like...

Let me think of a good one here.

Um, man, I'm drawing a blank.

I watch this show all the time.

I can't believe
I can't know of one.

It would be like,

if somebody breaks
a window on a plane,

would that create a vacuum?

And they put it to the test.

Wow. Okay.

Does it?

Nope.

Okay, you ready for this?

Awesome!

Cartoons are right!
