Walker, Texas Ranger (1993–2001): Season 2, Episode 3 - In the Name of God - full transcript

I can't believe that
termite's doing business

in my territory again.

I must not have explained it to
him clear enough the first time.

When you say "explain,"
you talking about the time

you put the snake in his house?

I said someone put
the snake, not me.

Right.

All right, what are we gonna do?

We're gonna climb down.

No, wait, wait. I got the plan.

What plan?

We're gonna push this boulder
down the hill with your truck.

Yeah, that way, we'll give
them a bang for their buck, man.

Won't work.

What do you mean, it won't work?

See, that's what I mean
by, "You never listen to me."

You're too stubborn.

It will too work.

All right, come on, baby.

Check this one
out. This is a beauty.

I got three more cases of these.

But you gotta order now.

Drop your guns, guys.

Walker?

Would you mind
tying them up, Cobalt?

I'm a little tired.

With what?

Be creative.

Belts. Belts.

Come on!

Walker, here we come!

Waaah!

Woo-hoo! Here we come!

Look out!

Baby, what a ride!

I told you he was crazy.

But determined.

Told you it wouldn't work.

What do you mean?

I'm a little late,
but it worked.

No, it didn't.

Yeah. Where's the other guys?

They ran off.

Do you mind staying with
the guns and the money

while I go chase them down?

Okay.

Keep your hands on the wheel!

The hell I will.

You just violated the sanctuary.

I don't care what I'm violating.

I'm getting my daughter, Emmi.

There's no one
here by that name.

That's a lie! Go home!

You're not wanted here.

Not without Emmi.

Stop that! That's my dad!

All right, let's go.

It's all right.

Everything's under control.

Emmi.

Oh, my God.

You shouldn't have
come here, Daddy.

I had to, baby. I
can't let you do this.

I am old enough
to decide for myself.

No, you're not.
You're still a child.

I just turned 18. I'm
a woman now and...

And I'm carryin'.

That's all the more reason
for you to come home.

Damn to you who covets the lamb.

She's chosen us now.

A flower that's come to seed.

I suggest that you leave.

We have her best
interests at heart.

Is that why you put her out
on street corners, begging?

Raising money for the flock.

It's God's work.

What kind of church
do you call this?

Guard towers? Razor wire?

It's more like a prison to me.

It's a haven of peace.

Protecting us from the beast.

Outside is Satan's
world and here, it's clean.

No crack. No
HIV. No rock'n'roll.

And no freedom.

I want my daughter back.

She's just reached
her 18th year.

Let it be her decision.

Tell me, child.

Do you wish to
depart with your father?

No.

I made up my mind.

This is my home now.

Go home, Daddy,
and forget about me.

I'll pray for your soul.

Emmi.

No.

Come on, now.

Quiet. Here she comes.

Surprise!

Congratulations, hon.

The even years
are always the best.

Twenty-eight winters. It's
a good year to have babies.

Happy birthday.

Walker, whose idea
was this, anyway?

Uh, it was Trivette's.

You big fibber. It was his.

You've been so busy with
this Hansen murder trial...

Yeah, we figured if
we didn't do something,

you'd end up sticking a
candle in a cupcake at home.

Yeah, the torrid nightlife
of the big city DA.

You got my number.

Oh, here.

Oh...

What is this?

It belonged to Aunt
Ruthie, Uncle Ray's wife.

It was her good-luck bracelet.

That's Indian medicine.

It'll bring you love
and happiness.

Oh, it's beautiful.

Oh.

Thank you. Mwah.

All right, come on. Make a wish.

What are you smiling about?

I'll bet I know what
you wished for.

What I wished for
was my key witness

who failed to show today.

Why? What happened?

He doesn't want to get involved.

And all the marshals
were busy with other things.

We'll serve that subpoena.

Couldn't ask you to do that.

Okay. What's the catch, Alex?

Catch? No catch.

It's just you guys have
more important things to do.

It'll be a birthday
present. Who is he?

His name is Luke
Meggs. He's a hog farmer.

On the morning of the murder,

he was out collecting
swill to feed his stock.

He saw Hansen run
from the murder scene.

Only now, he won't
come forward to testify.

Okay, what is it
you're not telling us?

What am I not telling you?

That's what I'm
afraid to find out.

Leave her alone. Why are
you always so suspicious of her?

Thank you, Trivette,
for trusting me.

Yeah, no problem. Piece of cake.

Okay, traitor.

I want some cake.

I knew it.

I wonder which one's Meggs.

I'll take the little guy.

Lute Meggs?

We have a bench warrant

which requires you
to appear in court

to testify in the state's
case against Clyde Hansen.

Man, like I told
them other four guys,

I ain't testifying.

Other four guys?

You hear me?

I ain't goin' nowhere with you!

Guess what?

He ain't going with us?

You got it.

Hey.

You know who we are?

We're Texas Ran...

Oh, man.

I don't think it's sinking in.

We can do it the hard way.

Meggs, get down from there!

Uh-uh.

No way, man.

Meggs, get down from there.

Get down.

Do you got him?

Do you got him?!

I got him! I'm cuffing him!

Oh, man, his wrists are too big.

Stop! Let me go!

Get his arm.

I got it. Okay. I got it.

Stop. Let me go.

Cuff him.

Let me go! All right!

Got him? Yeah.

Okay. Relax, Meggs. Relax.

Too suspicious, huh?

Miss Cahill?

I'm Hank Berrigan.

You're the district
attorney, right?

My God, what happened to you?

Come in.

Then when her mom
died, Emmi just went wild.

She wouldn't listen to nothing.

She wouldn't listen to nobody.

It... It's like...

sh-she blames me
for Laurie's death.

Then she runs off
and joins this cult.

Some sort of religious group?

Oh, hell, that's just a cover.

I mean, they call it
Heaven Compound,

but this Deacon Bodie,

he just uses people for begging.

He uses women too.

Emmi's pregnant.

How old is she now?

She's 18. I-I mean, all
the young women in there,

he's got 'em all carrying.

He runs the place
like a warlord.

All the other people in there,

they're all old,
except for the guards,

and they're just
a bunch of cons.

Mr. Berrigan, I'd
like to help you,

but right now, I'm in the
middle of a murder trial.

And besides, you said yourself,

legally, she's an adult.

Ma'am, I-I wouldn't be here

if I wasn't desperate.

It's just that...
I lost my wife...

and I don't wanna
lose my daughter too.

All right. I'll go out there

and I'll see if
she'll talk to me.

Thank you.

Whew!

What is that?

Whoa!

Where have you fellas been?

You smell like a
packing house in July.

It's not us, it's him.

Man, I gotta get outta here.

Ah, man, that's terrible!

It's every dadgum one of you.

That's what it is.

I'm gonna have to
burn these clothes, man.

Where do you get the
time to eat Chinese food?

Hey. I thought Rangers were
supposed to be tough, guys?

Get us a fumigator, fellas.

That's what we need most.

You smell like you got a
possum under each arm.

My best shirt.

Excuse me, but is
this New Canaan?

Yes. Are you looking
for Deacon John?

No...

The pretty ones always
come looking for him.

Actually, I was looking
for Emmi Berrigan.

Hunters.

I'll take you to Emmi.

Have you lost it?
That's live ammo!

Hey, how they gonna
train if their powder's dry?

I want these men to smell death.

Come on, keep down and rush!

Got some trouble
on the compound.

Some woman
assistant DA showed up.

She's talking to Emmi.

She breached the perimeter?
How did that happen?

I don't know. She
wants to see you.

Tell the men to stand down.

We'll finish the exercise later.

Come on.

All right. Stand down!

Regroup!

I am alive.

Oh! Isn't he just to die for?

Deacon, um, this is Alex Cahill.

Daddy sent her.

And Alex, this is
Deacon John Bodie.

What brings you
here to see Emmi?

Actually, I'm here on
behalf of her father.

He wants to press charges
for aggravated assault.

Well, I assume you have
witnesses to prove that.

You see, the way I saw it,

Mr. Berrigan tripped
getting out of his car.

Is that the way it
happened, Emmi?

Look, Miss Cahill,

I know my daddy
doesn't understand,

but I don't want any trouble.

This is my home now.

All right. Fine.

I'll be happy to leave.

But first, I'd like to
talk to Emmi in private.

Fine.

Inside the compound,
if you don't mind.

Let go of me!

Miss Cahill.

He was only concerned
for your safety.

Once that gate locks
down for the night,

it gets charged
with 10,000 volts.

So open it.

It's on a timer.

So when does it open again?

Six a.m.

Spend the night in
heaven, Miss Cahill.

I need to get to a phone.

We have no phones
and no television.

We have the Bible.

I think you're making a mistake.

You're wrong about
the deacon, Alex.

He loves me. And
he loves us all.

You can go back now, child.

I'll see her out.

But I wanted to say
goodbye to Alex...

Ah-ah-ah. Do what
the deacon says.

Sure.

Well, take care, Alex.

You too.

Well, now. You've had the night

to talk with the girl.
Are you satisfied?

Yes.

Satisfied that you've
committed a felony.

What are you talking about?

Statutory rape.

Emmi just had her birthday.

She's seven-months pregnant.

She also told me about
the paramilitary drills,

lack of sleep. You're
using mind control

on Emmi and about
half the people here.

It's a pity you feel that way.

What are you doing?

Giving you time to reflect.

Are you crazy? I'm
a district attorney.

This is kidnapping.

Man's laws pale
in the eyes of God.

Take her away.

You can't do this!

Oh, you'd be
surprised what I can do.

Let's go. Come on.

Hey, loosen up.
I said, I'm going.

We're lucky the DA
got a continuance.

But if Alex doesn't
show up soon,

I know that judge is
gonna order a mistrial.

It's not like Alex.

She'd never miss a court date.

Especially this one.

I called her apartment,
checked her office.

Nobody's seen
her since yesterday.

You heard Hansen
swear he wouldn't stand

for a conviction. Yeah.

You think that now we got
Meggs, he'd make a move on Alex?

He's killed three already,
and his gang's still at large.

Let's get out to her place.

Fellas, be careful. Let
me hear from you, will ya?

How'd you know that was there?

I've been over here a few times.

Oh.

To discuss cases.

Yeah.

God, Alex is neat.

She's wearing her bracelet.

Then she was home last night.

Seems that way.

Alex, this is Walker.
We got Meggs.

Call me before court.

Miss Cahill, this
is Hank Berrigan.

Did you get back
from Decatur yet?

What happened out at
the compound? 555-5736.

Who's Hank Berrigan?
What's the compound?

It could be that religious
cult down in Decatur.

Let's call him.

555-5736.

What the hell are you doing?

You locked up that DA?

Damage control.

She was gonna file charges.

Well, as your lawyer,

I am telling you
to let her go now.

Kidnapping is a federal crime.

We don't need the feds out here.

What's the
difference? Later, now.

Confrontation's inevitable.

Hey, whoa! Wait a minute!

This is me you're
talking to. Remember?

Bodie, I knew you
before you found Jesus

and learned how
to shoot a Mac 10.

Well, I get the feeling

that you're not a true
believer, Brother Webber.

Brother Webber?

Look, when I signed onto this,

it was nice and tight.

You held the Bible,
I kept the books.

We roped in the old
folks for their savings,

and the kids brought
us cash off the streets.

1.2 million that first year,

and all of it tax-free.

Donations and penance
from my brethren.

Yeah, well, your brethren,

half of them are knocked up now.

And those mercs you
brought in are about to blow,

especially Luther.

I don't like him
and I don't trust him.

Listen to me, you
disbarred hack.

It is your soul that
cries out for redemption.

And it is for the
blessed, like myself,

to show you the way.

The days of wrath
are coming, my friend,

where the wicked shall
burn in the fires of Gehenna.

But you have nothing to fear.

For the deacon protects you.

Okay, Bodie.

And to put it in terms
that you can understand,

we just brought
in 10 more retirees.

We are close to 3 million, 6.

If that DA wants to shut
down our escrow accounts,

she can.

Now, we don't want that, do we?

I can see why Berrigan
was so spooked.

This Deacon John Bodie

must think he's Lord
of the Flies, man.

Did you run him through NCIC?

Yeah, but "Bodie"
must be an alias,

'cause I got zip.

Hey. Hold it right there.

What's your business
here, Ranger?

Intruders outside the main gate.

Roger. We got lockdown in here.

You stay there.

No!

Let me outta here!

That looks like our boy.

Rangers. See
what I'm telling you?

It's high voltage.

What can we do for you?

An assistant district
attorney, Alex Cahill,

was out here yesterday.

She was visiting
an Emmi Berrigan.

That's right, they spent
about an hour talking.

Then Miss Cahill took
Emmi back to her father.

Is there something wrong?

Not if you don't
object to a search.

Feel free to walk
the entire compound.

There's just one thing.

What's that?

Because of the children,

we ask that you keep
your weapons outside.

Not a problem.

Hello.

Has anybody seen Emmi today?

No.

Emmi Berrigan?

No. Uh-uh.

Hi. Excuse me,

have you seen this
lady around here?

Hm?

Uh-uh. I ain't see her.

How 'bout you?

Well, I hope you enjoyed
your day in heaven.

Like I said, nothing to hide.

Right.

Remember his face, Luther.

His is the face of
death and destruction.

Hey, what's with you?
You never give up your gun.

Bodie's fingerprints.

Now we can run them

and find out who
this guy really is.

Yeah, and then what?

Then we're gonna get a warrant

and tear this place
apart, piece by piece.

She's in there.

I know it.

Hey.

Fingerprints came
back from Athens.

This Bodie's got a rap sheet
as thick as the Old Testament.

Real name is
Dwayne Tyrell Blaine.

Did time for armed
robbery, assault and rape.

Did his last stretch at Eglin

for possession of
stolen weapons.

So that's where he
got his old-time religion.

Yeah. He's got a mail-order
doctor of divinity degree.

Now, this guy, Morgan
Webber, was one of his cellmates.

He's a disbarred attorney.
He did a nickel for fraud.

Specialized in bilking old
folks out of their pensions.

So now he's at New Canaan
pulling the same scam.

Now, let me ask you something.

You wanna hit a
fortified compound

because of a
white-collar warrant?

No. I wanna hit it to
get Alex outta there.

Well, we don't
know that for sure.

I know it for sure.

Now, didn't you say

that Bodie did time
for stolen weapons?

Yeah.

Look, I'm just telling
ya, cop or no cop,

the guy put a damn
snake in my bed.

And that's the end of
that little bedtime story.

Cobalt.

Yeah?

Come here.

Got a deal for ya.

What do you want?

There's a religious
cult out in Decatur

run by a Deacon Bodie.

Real name: Dwayne Blaine.

I want you to go out
there and sell him guns.

No way, man.

If you do this, I'll have the DA

drop all charges against you.

Look, no deal, okay?

Look, I-I know that
guy from prison, right?

He's nutso.

There's no way
I'm going out there.

Suit yourself.

Naaaah! Get that
maniac outta here, okay?

Look, I-I-I'm not
telling you nothing.

Understand? Nothing!

"N-O" spells "no," end of story,

I ain't going to the compound!

The book says the day
is coming, my friends.

Now, the apocalypse says

that the beast will
come in many forms.

It's coming.

He will wear the
face of four horsemen:

Pestilence... disease...
famine and war.

Oh, yeah. WOMAN: Amen.

That is why we have drawn
in here behind these gates.

For protection!

Amen.

Praise God!

You are my children.

You are my lambs. Our flock

must continue to grow.

We must welcome newcomers
and help all devotees,

showing them how to surrender

their old, ill-taught
prejudices.

Amen.

To accept...

and embrace the
love and totalness

of being one with us.

Who is your father?

You are.

Who loves you
more than your own?

You do!

Alex?

They told me you weren't eating.

I'll eat when I'm
on the outside.

You know, I'd hoped
that my words today

might be inspirational to you.

Inspirational?

You are the sickest human
being I have ever met.

What you are doing to these
people is unconscionable.

You know, Alex... frankly...

your cynicism hurts me.

Are you always this difficult?

Only when I'm being
held against my will.

Well, restraints can be lifted.

You know...

we could use a strong
legal mind like yours

here at New Canaan.

So let me get this straight.

This is a job interview.

You know, lady, you're bitter.

Hell hath no fury, right?

Oh, you wanna know about hell.

I'll teach you about hell.

If you don't get
with this program,

I mean right now,

I'm gonna send
you there real soon.

You got me?

Yes.

I can't hear you.

Yes, yes, okay.

Okay.

Hold it right there!

Easy, guys.

Let's go.

Walker!

Walker!

Walker!

I love you.

No.

One, two, one, two.

Sounds good.

Stick that in there.

Did you have to tape
it to my chest hairs?

No.

Button up.

Jeez. S-S-So, what now?

Do I just go in there
on foot, or what?

Not a problem.

Trivette, give him your keys.

What? What about your truck?

They've already seen my truck.

Now, come on.

Oh, man.

Listen, if there's so much
as a scratch on my car,

you're gonna be dead dog
meat, do you understand?

Yes, sir.

Sorry, we're closed.

Just tell Dwayne that...

Tell Deacon Bodie Cobalt's here.

I got a Cobalt here.

What are you doing here?

Hey, Dwayne, is that any way

to say hi to your old bud, huh?

Lose the con talk. I got
something going on here.

I'll ask you one more time.

What are you doing here?

I'm just trying to sell you
some more hardware, man.

I-I got a new ship...

Listen to me, you
little hemorrhoid.

I want you back in
that car and outta here.

Listen. No lie, man.

I've got some really
high-tech artillery here.

It's the best.
T-take a look, huh?

In my office.

Hey, hey, Dwayne,
uh, you know what?

I just remembered I
left something in the car.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

What's the matter with you?

What, are you carrying?

I don't allow guns in my office.

No, man, it's
nothing like that at all.

Tell you the truth, I
haven't been feeling...

He's gonna blow it.

You know, little stomach
problems and everything.

And I got something
in the car...

Wait a minute, you little worm.

He's gonna find the wire.

What are you wearing, huh?

A wire?

You're wearing a wire on me?

It sure is.

A wire!

Get this cockroach
out of my face.

I mean now!

Dwayne, they were
squeezing me real bad, man.

You know I'd never turn you
over on my own. I swear it.

There's no swearing
allowed in here.

Come on, Dwayne.

Hey, man. You know
me better than that, man!

We're bros, man!

He's gotta go down, man.

Let's think this out.

What are you gonna
do with that, man? Huh?

Oh, it's just a little Q&A here

with Luther, me...

and I think you'll find
our style electrifying.

Hey. Hey, man,
anything you wanna know.

What can I tell ya, huh?

How many are they?

They're just two.

Aah! God!

Don't do that, man.

Please don't do
that. That hurts.

How many?

I swear to God, man,

there's just a
couple of Rangers.

They're all alone
in a pickup truck.

They got a couple of .44s
and a riot gun. That's it.

How much do they know?

They... They think you
got that lady DA in here.

You know, I don't think
they're sure about it,

but I swear to God,
even if she was here,

I was gonna put you
on to the wire, Dwayne.

I was gonna jam 'em up.
Work a double-cross! I was!

Cobalt. Cobalt, man, hey.

Don't lie to me. Okay?

See, cause I'm plugged
into the truth now.

I see things.

Hey, I can tell, man. I
can really tell that, Dwayne.

And I wanna swear to
you on my mother's eyes,

I would never give you
up, Dwayne, never, never.

You better be
straight with me, man.

Come on, man. If you're not...

you'll get the
shock of your life.

Okay, we got Alex
in there, Emmi,

and three hostages now,

if you wanna count Cobalt.

Make that two.

Looks like he's
leaving in a real hurry.

Get outta there.
Get out, Cobalt.

What the hell are you doing?

I'm getting outta here.
That's what I'm doing.

Did you see Alex?

No, I didn't see nothing. I
don't know nothing, all right?

Cobalt, don't lie to
me! Okay, okay, man.

I didn't see your lady DA.

But you're gonna need an
army to take that place, man.

What's with doing the Indy 500?

Hey, I wanted out.
He gave me out.

I wasn't gonna stick
around to find out why, man.

But he found the wire!

Why'd he let you
go so easy, Cobalt?

I don't know, man. I
just don't know, all right?

He knew we'd chase him.

Get the DA. I'll
lose her on the road.

Bodie. Bodie,
think for a minute.

She is a district attorney.

That's like killing a cop.

The cops won't hesitate in
killing a man of God, huh?

You're taking me
with you, aren't you?

No, there's no time,
child. I'll send for you.

I'll send for all of you
when I find a new place!

You can't do this, Bodie.

The baby! You're my whole life.

Sweetheart, God helps
those who help themselves.

Bring her out!

Close those gates!

Sheriff's deputies!

Stay here, Hank.

We'll serve the warrant

and see if they send Emmi out.

If not, we'll search the place.

The girl's father's with them!

Daddy! Daddy!

All right. Seal the exits
and break out the 60s!

You guys come with me. -60 mm!

Keep your wits about you, now.

Give the alarm!

Break open the armory.
We're under attack.

Ooh!

Return fire!

They got shotguns out there!

Tell Luther to bring out the DA.

Bring the girl out.

The tower!

Hold your fire!

Hold it!

How bad is it?

Bad as it could get,
Ranger. And then some.

Where's the bullhorn?

Front seat.

Bodie!

What is it, cop?

In half an hour, there'll
be 50 armed men here

surrounding the perimeter.

You know what will happen.

Yeah. I'll die a hero.

No, you'll just die.

Is that what you want?

What I want is a chopper

and enough fuel
to reach the border.

In return for what?

I got a lot of innocent
people down here.

If I don't get what I want,

I'm gonna start
executing one every hour.

Starting with her.

One hour from now, or she dies.

There's gotta be a way in.

This compound's
less than a year old.

We've got six minutes.

We need to buy some time.

You got five
minutes to live, lady.

How does it feel?

You kill a DA and you're
signing your death warrant.

Well, if I don't,
I'm signing it too.

Still, it'd be a
shame to waste you

before I've had a chance.

A chance for what?

To show you why all
those little girls down there

think I'm the Second Coming.

You're a pig!

Well, that may
be, but I'm alive.

And in four minutes
more, you'll be dead.

We got the chopper
for you, Bodie.

How do I know you're not lying?

Because I don't
want anyone killed.

They're putting larger
fuel tanks on the chopper

so you can make it
all the way to Mexico.

How soon?

Well, not until morning.

They're flying it
in from Fort Davis.

No way!

Those terms were unconditional.

A chopper now, or she dies.

You just do what
you have to do, Bodie.

Well, what's it gonna be, Bodie?

Freedom or a slab
down at the morgue?

All right.

But if this is a
scam, she's dead.

So, what's our next move?

We wait until dark,
then you and I go in.

Uh, Ranger, that fence
is hot enough to cook ya.

Sheriff, I want you
to contact DWP

and have them turn off the
power grid at exactly 12:02.

You got it? 12:02.

You got it.

Hey, partner,
that's pretty risky.

Who's gonna check to
see if the electricity's off?

You're the rookie.

Yeah.

Post five out of power!

Let's get that
power back on, boys!

What the hell is going on?

Get the generator up, now!

I knew they couldn't be trusted.

It's that Ranger.
It's that Ranger.

He's up to something.

Just take it easy, man.

Maybe it's just what
it is. A power failure.

Well, if I go, it all goes.

Look, man. Don't
blow it now, huh?

Now, pull yourself
together. This is perfect.

They can't see you
in the dark either.

Look, we've got all the money.

While everybody's
running and gunning,

now is the perfect
time to use that tunnel.

Just you and me.

Post two more men on the fence!

Or just me.

Thanks for the
advice, counselor.

All right, look alive.
Gunshot. We got gunfire.

Hey! Stop or I'll shoot!

Aah!

Nice shooting, Tex.

Check at the south gate.

Watch out!

Check those guys over at
the fence when you get back.

All right, I'll see you
next time around.

Both of 'em. Yeah.

Oh, it's gonna be okay.

Walker's here.
It's gonna be okay.

Don't let anybody in.

Sorry I didn't have time
to convert you, my dear.

I do love a good challenge.

I'm sorry, I just can't
leave any witnesses.

Especially the unconverted.

Go to hell.

You first.

What do you think you're doing

going on a dang-fool mission
without letting me know?

Don't you ever do that again!

Okay?

If you won't, I will.

Mm.
