S1 E15Unfinished Business

[Spots Lucas at the gate of Carrie's residence] Well, look who got out of jail... again. [Opens gate for Lucas]

So how you doing? You look better.

Yeah, I'm a real fashion plate. How about you?

What about me?

I hear you went native while I was away.

[Sighs] Yeah. That's one way of putting it.

You got another way?

Listen, Job, I tried to find you. We all did. After Dalton was dead...

You mean after you killed him.

I thought you were dead. I believed it. And then something... something inside me, it just... I gave up. I'm sorry.

Well, it could have been worse. Could have been 15 years. You never put that shit on me.

Rabbit fսckеd us.

Yes, he did. On my watch. Baby, all our bullshit... that's all in the past. You and me, we ain't ever getting that time back. So... what you really need to worry about is what's happening in the here and now.

What do you mean?

Our little friend is building a fortress and she is armed to the teeth. For what? Seems she feels the only way to honor her dead husband is to finish his war on Proctor herself.

[To Burton driving him] Mr. Watts has made provisions to keep all five facilities running around the clock. I'll need you to keep an eye on things. I don't trust him. If I don't deliver on my promise to the Colombians, Watts is gonna be the least of our problems. [Spots crowd at city hall] Stop the car. Stop the car! [Burton parks vehicle]

RReporters

[Kai walks to crowd of Amish] Excuse me, Mr. Mayor? Mayor Proctor, why are offices holding on with Rebecca Bowman's body?

What the hell are you doing, Miriam?!

MMiriam

We want her back, Kai! You can't keep her like this!

I'm not keeping her!

MMiriam

You can fix it!

Rebecca wasn't the only girl who was killed!

MMiriam

She's the only one we need to bury!

EElijah

It's not right keeping her body like that! It's disrespectful!

I'm gonna give you two minutes to get these men out of here!

EElijah

We will not leave without Rebecca.

You lost all rights to Rebecca when you shunned her! If you don't leave right now, I'm gonna have you dragged away and put into jail.

EElijah

We are not scared of you anymore, Kai. There's nothing else you can do to us.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. [Turns to walk into city hall]

RReporters

Mr. Mayor? Mayor Proctor...

[Turns speaking Amish to crowd] Go home! All of you! Get out, now! Or you will all go to jail! Go away! [Lunges at crowd with Burton thwarting him]

BBurton

Sir, sir. We should go inside.

[Walking into city hall to Stacy] I want these steps cleared right now! You understand?!

SStacy

They have a permit.

I don't give a shit!

[Brock gets into patrol vehicle and Lucas surprises him from the backseat] Hey.

Jesus Christ, Hood!

Afternoon, sheriff.

You have any idea how many laws you just broke?

You gonna arrest me again?

If you came looking for an apology, you're not gonna get one.

You know I wouldn't do the same thing. You would have shot me.

[Chuckles] Yeah, maybe. What... What do you want?

Heard there was another girl.

Yeah, 20-year-old college student.

Any leads?

Other than a six-year-old witness who can barely speak English, no. Nothing. You're not gonna stay out of this, are you? You know, I got to ask, you really didn't know she was pregnant?

No.

Must have been quite a shock. I'm sorry, Hood.

GGail

Is the sheriff in?

PSPolice station desk sergeant

Sheriff Lotus is in a meeting. Can I help you?

GGail

I have information he needs to hear.

[Approaches] Can I help you, ma'am?

GGail

He wants you to know he won't stop. Taking those girls was just the beginning.

What is this?

GGail

He wants you to see. You will all see. [Starts dousing herself in gasoline]

What the hell are you doing? Don't! No! Don't do it! [Woman lights herself up]

Shower's all yours. [holds out narcotic smoking pipe] Help yourself.

Not really my thing.

You know, I started out in undercover. Pretty white chicks have to go a little bit further to prove themselves. So it was either fսck 'em or smoke their shit. Sometimes it was both.

You don't have to explain yourself to me.

[Sighs] I've been meaning to kick it. But when you spend your days up to your neck in this shit, sometimes I got to get out of my own head.

Do I need to worry about you?

No. Might be nice if you did. Wow, you, my friend, have some intimacy issues.

Thanks for letting me crash. [Walks out]

Could have shared the bed. Just saying.

[Enters room] Burning the midnight oil, I see. This is not the place to talk business, Calvin.

CCalvin

That's fine because we no longer have any business to discuss. The Brotherhood no longer works for you.

Is that so?

CCalvin

Yes, that is so.

Well, that's unfortunate.

CCalvin

Not from where I'm sitting. I can't help but wonder what Watts will think about this. Well, why don't we ask him? [Produces Randall's severed head and places it on desk] What do you think, Randall? Seems the cat got Watts's tongue.

That's a bold choice.

CCalvin

Yeah. I thought you'd like that. [Sighs] So here's how it's gonna work. Everything that's yours is now ours. Warehouses, shipments, buyers, I fսcking want all of it. You can go quietly or you can go bloody, but either way you are gone. [Chuckles] You can keep the head as a souvenir.

What is it with this fսcking town? Can't we go one week without some mοtherfսcking army shooting at us?

Seems like you handled it fine.

That's because it's already become a mοtherfսcking habit.

Thank you.

Baby, there's a whole world out there.

So they tell me. [To Carrie] What the fսck happened here?

[In hushed voice] Proctor.

What are you doing messing with him?

Are you kidding me? You don't get to walk into my life every few years and question me.

Hey, hey, Deva could have been fսcking killed.

Get out of here.

Come on, Ana.

[Shoves him] Get the fսck out of here! Who the fսck do you think you are saying that shit to me?! Do you think I don't know what could have happened there?! You think I don't know what... [Lucas hugs her tightly with her crying]

Shh. Hey, hey, stop. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay.

KKim

Hello. Can I help you?

Kim Newton?

KKim

Yes. [Seated at table with Veronica] My parents were the ones that called the police. I was 15, Declan, he was 25. I was a quiet girl. You know, I didn't have many friends in school. Always the kid in the back row. Nobody really paid any attention to me. And then I met Declan. He told me I was beautiful and I could tell he meant it. I had never even been kissed before and here was this handsome older guy falling head over heels in love with me. And I understand now that I was young and impressionable and he manipulated me, but, you know... I still think he loved me and I know I loved him. So what happened? My dad found out. He wanted to go after Declan with a tire iron, but my mother convinced him to call the police instead. [Chuckles] Oh, I cried for days.

And the sеx? Was it perverse in any way?

KKim

It was intense, but, no, I wouldn't say it was perverse. Is Declan in some kind of trouble?

He's a person of interest. When was the last time you spoke to him?

KKim

The night he was arrested. After that, I never saw him again.

...

[Gets into her vehicle and makes a phone call]

Hey, it's Veronica. You disappeared on me this morning. But, anyway, I tracked down our statutory rape victim. She said all the right things, but my bullshit meter is ringing. Anyway, I'm going back to the hotel, so call me and I'll fill you in on my... [Kim appears at Veronica's window and smashes it]

...

[Wakes up hanging tied from ceiling in Declan's dungeon club] Oh, shit.

DDeclan

[Appears] I heard you were looking for me.

LLoera

Mr. Proctor.

Senor Loera. Good to see you again.

LLoera

I must admit I'm a little surprised that you were able to pull this off.

I don't promise what I can't deliver. Bring it up.

LLoera

Show me. Hi. [Truck door opens to reveal Carrie with three dead goons and the mafiosos all cock and aim their guns]

As long as we all whipping our shit out... [Camera reveals Job on top of Truck aiming his M60 gun at them] Emilio Loera, I take it?

LLoera

Who the fսck are you?

I'm nobody.

LLoera

You know my name, so you know who I am. Which means you know what kind of a mistake it would be to try to steal from me, right?

I wouldn't dream of stealing from you. No, I came here to provide you with a valuable service.

LLoera

Oh, yeah? Which is what?

I came to show you that Mr. Proctor was mistaken when he told you that Banshee was a safe place for you to set up your manufacturing. Very mistaken. I mean, if he had it so locked down, how did I steal this truck full of all these drսg?

[Raises gun] I'm gonna fսcking slit your throat.

LLoera

[Raises hand] Stop. [To Carrie] I suppose you have some fee in mind for this service.

No. Sometimes a service is its own reward. Just let my friend and me walk away right now and we'll call it even.

LLoera

[Laughs] Start walking.

You're not just gonna let her walk out of here?

LLoera

[Raises hand] Shut up. Hey, Miss Nobody. Did you really think that I was gonna let you leave?

No, actually, I didn't. [A rocket propelled grenade fired by Brock flies into truck and detonates it entirely]

[Lowers down PSRL-1 rocket launcher] That's right. Someone just blew up your fսcking drսg. [Job and Carrie run to Mercedes vehicle, drive it to pick up Brock]

Nice shot.

Thanks. You know, you really need to stop doing this shit.

You invited yourself.

I'm serious. It's become like a bad habit with you.

This was the last time.

I've heard that shit before. This is a very nice car.

BBurton

[To Kai] Ev... Everything I did... [Gasps] ...I did for you.

FRFlashback Rebecca

[On table] Untie me! Untie me, you son of a bitch!

FBFlashback Burton

[Sitting with hood obscuring eye] You're ruining him. I can't let that happen anymore.

FRFlashback Rebecca

He loves me! You... You don't understand! Don't do this!

FBFlashback Burton

He doesn't see you... but I do. [Leans into Rebecca with hood off] I... SEE... YOU...!

FRFlashback Rebecca

Burton, please!

FBFlashback Burton

[Voiceover yelling] I see you!

BBurton

[Repeatedly] I'm sorry.

It's okay. It's all right, Burton. It's all right. [Snaps Burton's neck]

[Lucas is in bathroom washing off blood]

Well, I should have known better than to let you go off like that. How'd your forensics team do? They found some skin samples. Probably gonna match Proctor's.

It turns out it wasn't actually him. It was Burton.

Burton?

Yeah. Guy with the glasses. His butler or whatever.

The butler did it? [Chuckles and walks into washroom] Seriously? Well, I should probably go arrest this butler Burton, no? [Lucas stares at her in an informal look of factual correction] Right. Should have guessed. Then I guess my job here is done.

Yeah, me, too. Me, too. It's about time I moved on. It's been time a couple of times, actually.

[Puts hand on his shoulders] Well, if you're ever in D.C... look me up.

I will. [She kisses him and walks away]

Let me see if I got this straight. Calvin got the jump on you, beat the shit out of you, then somewhere along the way, you remember you got a gun and you shoot him from 20 feet away. Is that it?

Yeah.

Bullshit.

Sir, ahem, I'm not sure what you're trying to imply, but...

I'm not implying anything. I'm saying it. You beat the shit out of Calvin and then you killed him for good measure. Hey, Bunker, relax. It's just you and me talking here, okay? Come on, sit down. [Sighs] I don't know what it is about this town, Bunker. What geographic phenomenon makes us a magnet for every scumbag and criminal East of the Mississippi. But what I do know is that to do this job, sometimes you've got to take off these badges and get bloody.

[Lucas, Job and Sugar are The Forge bar]

It's gonna be mighty quiet around here.

Don't even pretend like you're gonna miss me.

I was talking to Hood.

You know, I think I'm actually gonna miss this place.

I know I'm not. Sugar, it's been a thin slice of heaven.

I know you don't mean that.

It's true, I don't.

You in a rush?

Damn right. Every time I try to get out of this mοtherfսck¡ng place, some shit goes down and I get stuck in it. I'm getting while the getting's good. But before I do... figured I'd pay my tab.

[Opens duffel bag full of cash] Where the hell did you get this?

Now, you know better than to ask. Point is, you spent your retirement fund getting me out. Well, you're too old to be slinging drinks, so... Thank you. You know how to reach me?

[Scoffs] No one knows how to reach you.

He does.

Yeah, I do.

[Opens door] This is where I leave you. Banshee, Pennsylvania... Suck my tit! [Leaves and shuts door]

I was just remembering the first time you walked in here. I never could have imagined. You know, some might say you weren't all that bad at that whole sheriff thing.

Yeah, and other people might say I was the worst fucking thing that ever happened to this town.

Putting that badge on the way you did, I never thought you'd be walking out of here on your own two feet.

Neither did I. You know, I probably wouldn't if it wasn't for you.

You know you hid up on that mountain because you felt the need to atone for something. And for all we know, you'd still be there if Brock hadn't come and pulled you down. We are cons. We're made to believe that you pay for your sins by getting locked up. But maybe the way to redemption isn't hiding on the mountain. Maybe it's about choosing another road down here with the rest of us.

Maybe.

The past has kept you locked up long enough. Today there's really only one question left to ask yourself. What are you going to do now?
