The Terror (2018–…): Season 2, Episode 7 - My Perfect World - full transcript

Consequences for noncompliance
is what there needs to be.

It was just two stupid words on
a stupid paper.

I had a sister,
died many years ago.

Her name was Yuko.

Children can't be raised on the streets.

Taizo. Is that...
The name she gave you.

She's my blood.

You're nothing.

What are you
doing out here?

Just enjoying the great
American landscape.

Again.



She still hasn't
written me back.

Is there...

any way I can call her?

Does Bowen have
a direct line?

Chester,
I can't let you do that.

They'd ship us both
to Tule Lake.

Bowen records everything
in that office.

Hey, instead of that,

maybe you should talk
with your parents?

You know who I mean.

Was that Toshiro coughing
the last few nights?

Walls are so thin
I could hear him.

Asako-san and Henry-san
are looking after him.

But you're still
their son.



If I had known who I was,

whose son I really was,

I could've protected Luz,

and our boys.

If they hadn't lied to me
my entire life.

It's a beautiful
day today.

The Gallegos

are finally painting
their front porch.

Pink.

I guess Marta finally
got her way after all.

Luz.

You need to get out.

Meet new people.

I don't want you
wasting your life

just wallowing
in misery.

Thanks.

I'll take it
under consideration.

Did you have dinner with
that young man from church?

Julio?

I prefer to eat at home.

You can't expect
someone like Julio

to come along every day.

He's from a good
Catholic family,

and since he just moved here
for medical school,

he doesn't know...

That I got knocked-up

by a Japanese man

and ran away with him?

I told Julio you'd be happy
to have dinner with him,

and I'd prefer
to not be made into a liar.

Yup.

He sent
another one.

You collect these
like paper dolls.

and I am sick of it.

Chester.

Package for you.

From Los Angeles.

Hey!

What do you think
you're doing?

You don't have permission
to exit this gate!

Stop,
or I'll shoot!

If you want to shoot
a sergeant in the back,

it's fine by me, private.

Stop right there!

Transport's here.
Let's go.

Chester,
what happened?

Your lunatic son
tried to go AWOL.

I heard he pulled
the same trick

in Guadalcanal.

In English.

Where are you
taking our son?

Well, he's lost his privilege
to be here in my relo center.

There's another
facility

at Tule Lake,

for agitators.

Please,
Major Bowen,

have mercy.

He's been through so much.

He is a soldier, like you...

I have
shown him mercy,

too much of it.

Nakayama,

it's gonna
be a while, son.

You got anything

you wanna say
to your parents?

My parents are dead.

Go on, move out!

Asako-san,
it's getting worse.

Hey.

What's wrong
with him?

I don't know.

He's burning up,

and he can barely breathe.

It hit my block
last night.

22 and 23 today.

No one knows
what to do.

Where are the doctors?

There's only two
and they're both sick,

so it's just...
it's whoever volunteers.

Tell your boss

that he needs to get
the sick to a hospital,

or get real doctors
in here.

Ken, he's not really the type
to listen to advice.

I know you like the safety
of being Bowen's pet,

but if he doesn't do
something quick,

people are gonna die.

Hey!

What are you doing?

That's
a men's barrack.

That better not be
what I think it is.

What is that?

Where are you going?

Oh, you just gonna ignore me?

I'll show you
who runs this place, huh?

I gotta crap.

Out there or in here,

up to you.

I heard
in Guadalcanal,

the mosquitos
crawl up your ass.

Is that true?

Sure.

You done already?

Stop!

Freeze!

I'll blow your head off!

Major Bowen, sir?

There's been an outbreak.

No one knows what.

People are running fevers,
fighting for breath.

Mostly the children
and the elderly.

I tried to inform you
last night,

but I couldn't find you.

Oh, I was, um...

I was out.

You'll have to forgive
my current state.

I... have no idea
what's come over me.

Well, there's
something spreading.

It could be TB,
maybe influenza.

I hope you're not
infected...

Why are they
doing this to me?

Major, the infirmary,

it needs...

Every other thing
your people do

is some kind of
superstition.

Bock-a-moany this.

Yoo-rye that.

Hell, I can't even
get half of them

to look me in the eye.

At first, I thought maybe
it was out of respect or fear,

and, frankly,

either one of those
is fine with me.

Sir, you run a good... center,

but we're not built to handle

an outbreak
of this scale.

We don't have the supplies
or the personnel.

Can we at least transfer
the children to a hospital...

The reason they won't
look me in the eye

is because they know
something that I don't know.

Now, until somebody tells me
what kind of evil spirit

or oriental magic tricks
are taking over this place,

nobody's leaving.

Your people made this mess.

Now you gotta live with it.

What the hell
happened to you?

Amy! Amy, hold up.

Did you talk to Bowen?
What did he say?

He said no.
I tried.

"I tried" isn't gonna
save these kids.

Are we supposed to
watch them try to breathe

until they can't?

Ken, I can't talk right now.

You have to
do something.

I'm trying.

Why don't you
do something.

Or maybe you're just
all talk?

Asako-san, Henry-san,
can we speak a moment?

What's wrong?

It's Chester.

Chester?

Is he all right?

Nobody knows.

Who sent you here?

What?

These are staff quarters.
Who let you come over here?

No one.
There's a medical emergency...

- Did she send you?
- Who?

What does she want
with me?

Does she want revenge?

Is that it?

You tell that demon

that this place
wasn't even my idea, okay?

This is just my goddamn job.

You think I like being locked up
with the rest of you?

Listen to me,
there's a medical emergency...

What does she want from me!

You want a demon?

Now you got one.

I hope I didn't
talk too much for you.

I... I'd like
to see you again,

if that's okay.

Don't worry,

I wasn't gonna try
to kiss you.

I'm not one of those guys

with ten gals
lined up for dates.

I like you.

You don't know me.

I'd like to.

Your father says

you haven't been
out a lot.

That you were gonna
be a nun before the war.

I think that's...
honorable.

Thank you for dinner, Julio.

I should call it a night.

I'm just saying...

I don't want to rush you
into anything

you're not ready for.

I appreciate that.

Good night.

Good night.

You never answered
my letters.

I couldn't even
open them.

Why not?

Because I knew,

if I opened them...

I'd hear your voice again.

I never got to see you...

Don't.

The girl you loved?

The one who loved you?

She's buried,

with them.

Everything about you hurts me.

Do you know who I was
an hour ago?

Sweet, quiet Luz,

on a date with a guy
who thought I was...

I was scared of kissing him,

and I was thinking,

if I smile enough
for this Julio,

he'll never expect me

to ever say or feel
anything real with him.

I could marry a man like that.

If that's
what you want to do...

if that's who you really are,

then do it.

But I don't think that's you.

I'm so tired.

I wake up in the morning,
and it's like I can't breathe.

I can't be here
anymore.

I don't have anything
to give you.

I'm not asking you
for anything,

but...

if you would just
let me help you now,

I promise you, I will.

Whatever you need.

Like what?

I've got this.

My old professor
kept it good as new.

If you could have
a free ride,

to anywhere,

where would you go?

Major Bowen?

Sir?

It's Amy Yoshida.

They're asking for you
at the office.

Who followed you?

Ken.

What are you
doing here?

Shh. It's like you said,

someone's gotta
do something.

Oh, God.

What did you do to him?

I stopped him
from killing me,

and once he comes to,

I'm going to make him
call in some ambulances.

Ken, you can't be doing this.

Do you know what's going
to happen to you?

What's gonna happen

to everyone
in the infirmary

if I don't do this?

They'll die, all of them,

because everyone's
too goddamned afraid

to do the right thing.

I tried.

I really did.

Thanks for that.

Get back to work
before you get into trouble.

Recess!

Recess, children!

Everybody outside.

What?

Hi, Lorraine.

Neville County Hospital, please.

One moment.

Neville County Hospital.

Hi. This is Miss Yoshida
from Major Bowen's office

at Colinas de Oro.

The Major would like
to request the transfer

of two dozen patients
from the relocation center.

We'll require ambulances
right away.

See you at the gates.

Thank you.

What's going on?

Flying planes
into aircraft carriers.

Making snacks out of the enemy.

Taking military officers
hostage.

Is it the Japanese blood
that makes you all that way?

It's eating at you, isn't it?

How you treat us.

You wish there was a demon,

some inhuman enemy.

It'd be so much easier
for you to live with yourself.

What I've done

is honorably supervise

and maintain a federally-ordered
relocation center.

There's cases in
the courts right now.

We'll all be out of these camps
within a year.

Are you really going to keep
lying to yourself

that what you've done
is honorable?

Or are you gonna come with me
to your office,

pick up the phone,
and call an ambulance

so innocent people
don't die?

The second
we walk in that building,

they'll be on you
like flies on shit.

And if they are,

I'll shoot you.

Then who's gonna call
the ambulances?

You think of that?

Then maybe I'll shoot you
in the gut right here.

I'll get the ambulances
to come that way.

Do it.

I was at Belleau Wood.

Under Pershing.

I'll bleed my guts out
before I surrender to you.

Ken! It's me.

- Open up.
- Are you alone?

No.

Gimbel's with me.

I'm sorry.

Anyone comes in,
I shoot the Major!

Ken, don't!

It's over.

The kids are going
to the hospital.

Come in.

Just you.

Anyone else,
and there's blood.

Do as he says.

It's locked.

The ambulances
are on their way?

Yeah.

I called for them.

You have no authority
to do that.

I know.

I used yours.

It's not her fault.

I told her
that I'd kill you

if she didn't
make the call.

She did it
to protect you.

She'd never
cross you on her own.

Gimbel,

when this boy places
his weapon on the floor,

I want you to stand down.

Then you can cuff him.

Nice and gentle.

Go on, call him.

Okay.

You can come in.

Be careful this side.

Oh, and just so you know,

I never bought
any of that ghost business.

First thing
you're taught

if you're
taken captive,

is to act crazy.

Throws everything
out of whack.

I'll keep that in mind
at Tule Lake.

Yeah.

You do that.

Miss Yoshida, with me.

Sir, he only wanted
to get medical help

for those who needed it.

If you could maybe take that
into consideration?

I already have.

Fellas...

you're needed inside.

Get him to the ground.

Hey, what are you doing?

Hey!

So his name was Jirou?

Yeah.

I have a brother.

Somewhere.

Did another family adopt him?

It just says

he was sent to
a children's hospital

at eight months.

After that...?

So if he's alive,

he's probably in some camp,

under an adopted name,

wondering why
he's always felt

like half of him's missing.

Anyway...

it's nothing
for you to worry about.

Care to tell me
where I'm taking you?

Aguayo.

New Mexico.

Why there?

It's where
my mom grew up.

My father used to send us there
in the summer.

My abuela and I
would make birria

and pray to the saints together.

My cousin, Hector,
would trap rabbits.

He said it was
sweeter than goat.

My brother hated it.

He missed the city.

But to me,

it was like a dream.

Well, let's go, then.

This soldier's certainly
feeling better.

No more coughing.

It's a blessing
Major Bowen is in charge.

He personally
made sure

that everyone received
the best care.

Yes.

Very lucky.

Do you mind bringing me
that Mercurochrome?

Bandages
could use a change.

Come on, you don't wanna
stand over there.

You know, they wanted me
to switch barracks.

Ha.

Retreat now?

I don't blame you, sweetheart.

Men like that take advantage
of the vulnerable.

I know at heart
you're a good girl.

You could have sent him
to prison like you promised.

He put his gun down
and surrendered.

Here's the lesson...

some dogs
you just have to put down.

It's safer this way,

trust me.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

He didn't leave you
any more choice than he left me.

I knew you were
one of the good ones.

I always trusted you.

Abuela!

Chester...

You didn't have to,

but I'm glad you did.

So I was thinking
I'd keep driving east,

see the country,

maybe find a city

where Taizo Tanabe
can find some decent work.

Stay.

Here?

My family, um...

There's a lot of work.

Luz? Is that you?

Who are you?

Did Chester send you?

What has he done
with my daughter?

You need to leave.
