The Red Road (2014–2015): Season 1, Episode 2 - The Wolf and the Dog - full transcript

Ah!

Come on.

Ah!

Hey, what's going on?

Nothin'.

You and your sister can
stay home from school today.

Stay here with your mom, okay?

Kate: What's happening?

Nothin', it's okay.

Hello?

Hello?



I think I killed it.

Rachel said it was
a dog or a deer.

You talked to Rachel
about what happened?

- When?
- I'm not gonna drink anymore.

Never again, I promise.

What were you drinking?

I didn't smell any booze on you.
It didn't seem like you were drunk.

- It's all gone now.
- Well, what was it?

- Where'd it come from?
- What difference does it make?

You're sayin' you were
drunk and you weren't!

Look, what were you...
What were you gonna do?

What were you
gonna do with my gun?

Is something going
on I don't know about?

Harold, you said you understood.



We talked about this already.

About what?

Last night when you
came in here, I told you...

that Rachel told me.

Rachel told me to take the gun.

Sylvia, it's Harold.

Uh, no. Jean, um...

she fell off the
wagon last night.

It was pretty bad.

I know, I know.

Um... I gotta get to work.

I don't think she should
be alone. Could you...

Thanks.

Sounds the same as it used to.

You know, I can fix
this up if you want me to.

I'm on my way out. I'm
going to see the police.

Yeah, what about?

That woman hittin' my car.

You ready?

We gotta go.

I need to talk to you about
what happened last night.

Go warm up the
car. I'll be right out.

You're gonna make
this lady look guilty.

Okay by me.

That boy could die.

They had to put him out this
morning to keep his brain from swelling.

Frank and Iana are a mess!

Yeah, but Jean didn't do it. I
ran into her right after I left here.

We were catching up.

We used to see each other a
little bit in high school, remember?

She's married to a cop, so
you know I'd be the first to say so

if I thought she
did it, but she didn't.

She got kids.

She would've stopped.

All right, forget it. You
go talk to the police.

They'll fix it up. They
always do, right?

Damn it!

Harold: Okay, so we
know that this college kid

was last seen on Deer Hill Road.

So we'll move along
the same perimeter.

Okay, and then, Vic...
Vic, you wanna come here?

Vic's gonna help us
with the search today.

He's gonna lead us through
all the old mining areas,

make sure that we stay safe.

Now, if this kid is out
there, chances are he's hurt.

Okay, he's gonna be
caught up in something.

And it will get cold tonight.

So, uh, just make sure
you guys dress accordingly.

Sorry, you wanna just
show 'em those areas?

- Yeah?
- Man: Harold, how's shit town?

Same as you left it.

Are you playing
detective over there?

Somethin' like that.

You find anything on him?

Well, nothing in Jersey, but
I went the extra mile for ya.

Called around and
found a Phillip Kopus

who did six years
down in Florida.

Got out last month.

Convicted of engaging
in a criminal enterprise.

Criminal enterprise?

Part of a larger
drug trafficking case.

That's all I could find out.

Captain Warren: Harold?

- Got a second?
- Man: Hey, you there?

Uh, thanks, Martin.
I owe you one.

Yeah, you bet.

There was a hit and run up
in the mountains last night.

Victim's still in the hospital.

Lenape kid named Paul Morgan.

That was the lawyer
for the victim's family.

She says she's got witnesses

saying Jean was the driver.

- Jean?
- Yeah.

- My Jean?
- Yeah, your Jean.

And you believe it?

I'm just telling
you what she said.

Well, Harold, whatever this is,

I want you to know I
take care of my men.

But I can't do that if you're
not bein' straight with me.

So, if there's anything
you wanna tell me,

now would be the
time, and I'll protect ya.

God as my witness.

I told you about the trouble
we've been havin' with Rachel.

Jean, um...

I guess she drove up there...

- Jesus, Harold.
- She got into it with the boy's mother.

She was really driving
around up there?

Yeah, I mean, she might've
made some enemies,

but she sure as hell
didn't hit anybody, Cap.

All right, okay.

But this lawyer's startin'
to make some noise.

The whole tribe's up in arms. You
know they love playin' the victim.

Okay.

Harold.

Mind if I send somebody to
take some photos of the car?

Wanna nip this thing in the bud.

Yeah.

Sylvia: I called
the store for you.

I told them you were sick.

You're gonna have
to start thinking about

how this is affecting
the rest of us, Jeanie.

Kate and Rachel especially.

It's not just you.

And your father has
an election coming up,

and all the incumbent
state senators

are gonna be fighting
to keep their seats

with this re-districting thing.

Your father's gonna want
you back in AA immediately.

Did you put something
in this? It tastes old.

You want me to make a fresh pot?

I wanna be home.

You are home.

No, I wanna be in our
house where Brian was.

- Yeah?
- Good afternoon, Mrs. Jensen.

- Oh, my God.
- No, no, no, no, he's fine.

He's fine. Um, I'm sorry.

- We... he didn't tell you?
- No.

We're supposed to come by and
take some pictures of the vehicle.

- Pictures? What do you mean?
- Sylvia: Jean?

Hey, guys.

You're early.

Harold, what's going on?

Nothing. It's, uh...
we'll talk in a minute.

Come on.

Hey, I'm real sorry
about this, Harold.

- Yeah.
- Just following orders.

Yeah, I get it, I get it. You
wanna just make it fast, okay?

Yeah. Come on.

There you go.

Hey, Harold, can we get
some more light in here?

Harold?

- Sorry, what?
- Can we get this door open?

Need some more light.

Thanks.

What is that?

Is that a Savage .310?

Uh, yeah.

I think we got what we need.

Great.

Thanks, Harold.

- Take care.
- Yeah.

All right.

Why are they looking at my car?

I called David. He's
coming over with a lawyer.

No, no, no, no.
That's not necessary.

- I think it is necessary.
- I have this under control.

What do you have under control?

Come here.

Some people are saying that...

That you hit somebody,
but it's... it's fine.

The car is fine. It wasn't you.

It wasn't fine, Harold.
When I hit the dog, I felt it.

No, no, baby.
You're tired, okay?

You're under stre... you're just
tired. You're not thinkin' straight.

Hello?

Damn!

Okay.

- All right, I gotta get to work.
- Okay.

- Okay?
- Yeah.

Girl's voice: Mommy?

Girl's voice: Mommy?

Mommy?

Mommy, it's almost time.

- Come on, man, what was that?
- Hey, little cowboys.

Wanna try a real gun?

Look at that.

Whoa.

There you go.

- Oh, almost.
- My turn.

You ever been to juvie?

My brother went.

- He said it sucked.
- Well, he wasn't lyin'.

I was in there when I was
a little bit older than you.

I met some guys worse than
anybody I ever met in state prison.

And the guards,
they're all pervs.

You almost had that one.

I heard y'all saw
who hit your buddy.

Yeah. You tell the police?

I told my dad, and
he called the police.

- Did you give a statement?
- Not yet.

Well, be careful if you do.

They love twistin' things.

Hey, how old do you gotta
be to ride on public lands?

Used to be 16.

What is it now?

Still 16?

That's what I
thought. Watch this.

I'm glad Sylvia called me.

I don't even know
why we're doing this.

She's been shaky all morning.

The longer she waits, the
guiltier she's gonna look.

This is necessary.

Irv knows what he's doing.

- About what time?
- 5:00.5:00 or 6:00.

- And you said it was dark?
- Yes.

Sun goes down
about a quarter to 7:00.

You sure it was
between 5:00 and 6:00?

Maybe it was later.

Hey, it's okay. It's not a test.

I just want you to be
as specific as possible.

What was your purpose
for driving out there?

I was looking for Brian.

- And who's Brian?
- He's my twin.

I, um... I think my
client misspoke.

Her... her brother's deceased.

Sorry.

- It's hard to think.
- It's okay.

I was looking for Rachel.
My daughter, Rachel.

I could hear her
calling for me...

screaming.

She can't hold her breath
as long as Brian can.

She's a little girl.

She can talk without
opening her mouth.

Let's... let's stop.

My client's understandably
under a lot of stress.

I... I think that we
need to postpone.

Hey.

I wanna go to our house.

Uh, honey, are
you... Are you sure?

- Mm-hmm.
- O-okay.

Uh, why don't you head
out to the car with Harold?

And... I just have to
talk to Bill for a minute.

It's okay.

- Let's... come on.
- Irv, come with me.

It's okay.

Mike: A party for
Rooster Garret in 110.

Excuse me, who
are you here to see?

Mike: Party for my
Uncle Rooster in 110.

Phillip: I set up a big buy.
We need a lot of product.

- You trust the guard?
- Mike: Yeah, I used to sell him meth.

He just wants a piece
of whatever we get.

Phillip: You go scope out
where they keep the pills.

Man on TV: The Lenape
community is up in arms.

Police have not made any comment

and have not identified
any suspects as of yet,

but they do have both sides of
the road blocked off right now...

You get that scrip?

Yeah, boy charged
me 200 bucks for it.

You gotta take it to
Campbell's Drugstore in Airmont.

The pharmacist
there is in on it.

Your dad know about this?

Once Jack finds out about
how much money we're makin',

he ain't gonna care
how we made it.

I ran this game
before down in Florida.

It works.

Marie: Junior, don't forget.

The one on top is special
for Paul's mom and dad.

And put these cookies on top
so they don't get crushed, okay?

Hey, you're not comin' with us?

Uh, no. I can't.

I got petitions to organize

and they have to be
in by the end of the day.

So just, um, tell Frank and
Iana I'm thinkin' about 'em,

and I'll definitely
come by tomorrow.

Hey, so how come you
never told me about your son?

Never came up.

Wasn't a secret.

I had him when I was young.

Were you scared of him?

I'm not scared of anybody.

Was he like me?

Nobody's like you, June.

But I guess you both had
some bad luck early on.

Don't have much in
common besides that.

Man: Get that engine warmed
up so she don't stall up on the hill!

- And don't touch the radio.
- Yes, sir.

He come to see you?

- He didn't ask for anything.
- Of course he didn't.

He'll wait a few days
till you offer it to him.

If he had any love for
you, he'd leave you alone.

Hey.

Um, our credit card
machine is down.

So, if, uh, you have cash,
we can fill it for you now.

Um, your co-pay is $200.

It's a nice racket
you got goin' here.

Sir?

- Thank you.
- Thanks.

See you soon.

I don't need checkin' up on.

Why don't you head back to
Brooklyn and tell him that for me?

Here for my annual flu shot.

Never seen her so
happy to be here.

She's probably not anxious
to face the girls after last night.

Bill said there were witnesses.

It's all smoke.

Nobody's come forward.

I guarantee it was a
Lenape that ran that kid over.

I know how they feel about
the police, but accusing her?

That's disgusting.

I'll do 'em one better.

I'll make sure that
federal recognition bid

ends up right in the toilet.

- Evening.
- What do you want?

I need to know
where your son lives.

Junior lives with me.

No, your son Phillip Kopus.

Why is it okay for you to show up at
my house in the middle of the night?

- What's wrong with you?
- I understand how you must feel.

- Really?
- Yeah, I am on your side, okay?

- I think we want the same...
- I doubt that.

Hey, ma'am? Ma'am?

Ma'am?

Are you sure you're all right?

You should
probably see a doctor.

If you think you're
gonna keep me quiet

about the way your wife was
actin', you're wasting your time.

I'm still thinking about
givin' a statement.

Okay.

Well, I'm happy to put you
in touch with the detective

who's heading up
the investigation.

But if I'm not mistaken...

you didn't actually
see her hit anybody.

And they're gonna wanna know
why you took so long to come in.

You don't scare me.

I'm not trying to.

I'm just trying to
keep you informed.

Please leave.

Funny, I don't see
Phillip up there.

Get out!

Get out of my house!

What were you dreamin' about?

My wallet's on the dresser.
There's no pills in the house.

I brought my own.

You're gonna need
somethin' for the pain.

- Open up. Open up.
- Mm-mm.

Open up.

Open. Good boy.

Good boy. Swallow.

"Crooked Pharmacist ODs."

- You like that headline?
- Mm-mm.

So, you're gonna do
exactly what I say?

Good. Here's what I say.

Every Friday I'm gonna
send someone to your place,

and every Friday you're
gonna give him 1,000 pills.

- I'm only skimming half that.
- Bullshit!

You're skimming
twice that, at least.

And if you call the police,

if you do anything
but what I just said,

I will come back and I will cut
your head off while you sleep.

You don't want that, do you?

- No.
- Shh. I know.

Hey.

Kate: She's sleeping.

Some kids at school are
saying she hit that boy.

Lenape kids?

Yeah, their parents are going
after your mother to get to me.

They hate cops,
okay? Just ignore them.

This is all gonna
be over soon, okay?

- Give me your phone.
- What? Why?

What do you mean,
why? You know why.

Give me the phone or I'm gonna
smash it into a million pieces!

Give me the... hey, hey!

Rachel!

You okay, Dad?

Have some fries.

Let's get a few things clear.

Has anybody come in to
make an official statement yet?

Long as we have an
understanding, nobody ever will.

What do you want from me?

You're gonna have
to take it as it comes.

What, you want me
to look the other way?

While you do what, exactly?

You don't get to know that.

You're sacrificing
for your wife, Harold.

Sacrifice hurts.

You try contacting my wife
or any member of my family...

I don't have the slightest
interest in your family.

So, where'd you find
my gun the other night?

Jean gave it to me.

Well, I got it
back now, don't I?

You think Jean
did it, don't you?

Wait.

Nah, you know she did.

I can see it.

I didn't think so at first.

But I guess after marrying you,
havin' those kids, she's changed.

She's innocent.

You're gonna have
to get better at that.

At what?

Lying.

She's guilty.

You wouldn't be sittin'
here if she wasn't.

And I gotta tell ya...

it has me feeling a little torn
because I knew that kid that got hit.

No.

You don't feel shit.

You don't care about anybody.

You need something.

That's all.

And you don't
care how you get it.

I could say the same about you.

Frank.

- Hey, Mike.
- Hey, Frank.

Hey, I need you to help
me out with somethin'.

Yeah, whatever you need, man.

I wanna get a look at
that lady's car, all right?

I drove by there.

I'm pretty sure they
got it in the garage.

All right.

You wanna go?

Phillip: That lady's
husband's a cop.

I don't think gettin' locked
up's gonna help your son, Frank.

My son.

My son might die, and that
lady's gonna get off scot-free?

Jesus, you changed, man.

So, are you gonna
help me or what?

I'm sorry, man. I can't be
messin' with the cops, bro.

I'll find somebody else, then!

Woman on phone:
Walpole Police Station.

Can you connect me with
Officer Harold Jensen, please?

Who can I say is calling?

Yeah, it's a friend.

If you get caught inside
the school, is it a big deal?

So why haven't you
been texting me back?

Oh, my father took my phone.

What?

I've been texting
your dad all day?

Oh, I hate the world!

I don't care about
anything but you.

I wanna do it.

- Are you sure?
- Mm-hmm.

Let's go! Let's go!

What the hell are you doin'?

Don't you touch me.
Don't you touch me.

Okay, who are you?
What's your name?

Frank Morgan.

Kate: Dad?

Katie, get inside.

Get in the house now!

Go.

I'm not movin'.

I'm in the right.

I wanna see the car.

You wanna see it?

Here.

You satisfied?

I catch you anywhere
near my house again,

you better believe
I'm taking you in.

You're goin' to hell.

So is your wife.

Aw, baby. Come here.
Come here. Come here.

I'm sorry.

Okay. It's okay. It's okay.

I got this, okay?

He's just confused
right now. He's upset.

Everything's under
control, okay?

I need you to believe that.

All right?

You just stay strong
for your mother.

Just don't be walkin' home
alone right now on your own, okay?

- Okay.
- Can you do that for me?

Okay, I got this, though,
okay? Everything's okay.

- Okay.
- I need you to know that, all right?

- 'Kay.
- Yeah, I got ya.

Now, come on, let's, um...

let's go upstairs.

You want tea?

Girl's voice: Can you find me?

David: Irv? Yes.

Rachel?

David: Really?

Yes... no, I just wanna...
How... how'd it go?

Well, how bad was it?

I don't know why she said that.

No.

No, no, she's here.

Y-yes.

All I wanna know is
how you're gonna fix it.

Girl's voice: I'm
waiting for you.

Yeah, Irv, I'll...
I'll get back to you.

Girl's voice: Do you
know where I am?

Sylvia: Jean?

Come back downstairs.

Jean?

Jean?

Jean?

Sylvia: Jean, open the door!

Sylvia: David.

David.

Girl's voice: Mommy,
open the window.

Help me.

Come outside.

Girl's voice: You won't fall.

You won't fall, I promise.

- You won't fall, I promise.
- Jeanie, Jeanie!

Sweetie, sweetie.

Come here. Honey?

Honey, you have to be careful.

You have to be careful.

Are you all right?

Man: Now, your father-in-law
agreed to pay out of pocket.

So you should say good-bye.

You're gonna upset
her if you prolong things.

She'll be safe here.

They're kicking me out.

So, I'm gonna... I'm
gonna come back

first thing in the
morning before work.

We can have breakfast
together, okay?

- Hey.
- Can't you just take me home?

Well, you're not gonna
get better at home.

There is no better.

This is me.

This is the only me there is.

I don't want to be
away from the girls.

I don't belong here.

I know you don't.
I know you don't.

But it's gonna be for a little
while. It's not gonna be long.

You promised me
you wouldn't leave me.

- I'm not leaving you.
- Yes, you are.

- I'm not leaving you.
- You are leaving me

because you're gonna go
home and I'm just gonna be gone,

and the girls are gonna hate me.

No, they're not.
They love you, okay?

- I love you.
- Then why is this happening?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I wanted to see
my old alma mater.

A lot smaller than I remember.

I got in my first
big fight over there.

The fights were
bigger than the games.

You know, I knew
this kid who went here.

I used to love gettin' him stoned
just to hear the crazy shit he'd say.

During the games, he used
to sit on the visiting side,

cheer his ass off for 'em.

He'd get beat up every
week during football season.

Couldn't fight to save his life.

Probably the toughest
guy I ever met, though.

I used to love fightin' for him.

So, how long you been
seein' her? Cop's daughter?

A couple months.

You guys havin' fun yet?

I don't know.

You don't know?

How do you not know?

You forget? You have black-outs?

No.

That's what I thought.

What are you
bein' all shy about?

You should be shoutin'
that from the mountain tops.

I like her.

I don't talk about
her like that.

That's good.

Good man.

Come on, let's go.

I told you I don't
need checkin' up on.

Ah!

Wanna get some drive-thru?
