S1 E15Unfinished Business

[about dropping a bullet on Winn] I told him the next one might be coming a little faster.

GGarrity

Deputy, that might just be the coolest thing I've ever laid ears on.

JBJeremy Barkley

Who are you?

GGarrity

Detective Garrity, Lexington PD.

JBJeremy Barkley

And I'm FBI. Wait your turn.

He's got the ice-cold, remorseless bottle-blond shit-bag killer doing scut work.

Deputy, are you accusing me of being a fake blond? Because if you need me to prove it to you, I might be inclined to break you over that step ladder, ride you down like a teaser pony, and paint this room an entirely different color.

Now, that is the Wynn Duffy I remember.

You concerned about me, Raylan?

Little bit. The S.S. Quarles is going under. You best swim like hell to get clear or the whirlpool will take you down with it.

I believe they disproved that on MythBusters.

DBDelroy Baker

[to Ellen May] See, darling, you got to understand, business is always gonna triumph— [Ava shoots Delroy in the chest with her shotgun]

Well, Mr. Napier, I'd like to think that if I was behind an attempt on your life, at the very least I would've messed up your hair.

My question is, does Mr. Napier know the name of the company that fired Shelby from his security job? Well, I'll save you the trouble. The name of that company was Black Pike Coal. Now, do you want us all to believe that Shelby here's a dishonest man because Black Pike tells us so? Do you think that Shelby's the only man in this room been done wrong by a coal-mining company?

TNTillman Napier

Mr. Moderator, how many questions you gonna let this convict ask?

Mr. Napier, everybody here knows that the only men the company doesn't do wrong are company men. And you stand up there with your slick haircut. You look down on Shelby because this man works for a living. You talk down to me because I've been in trouble with the law. Well, you know when that trouble began? Why don't you ask your good friend Harvey Jones? He was there. He was on the line when we struck out at Eastover Brookside, Duke power scabs, and gun thugs coming after us with bicycle chains and bats! Trying to run us over in their cars! And I know that you weren't there, Mr. Napier...but there sure were a lot of men there who looked like you. Men standing on the company side, laughing at all us hillbillies who were just trying to stand up for what we believed in. Now, I'm not saying you're a bad man, Mr. Napier. That, I don't know. But what I do know is that you've been feeding too long at the public trough. Now, I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm gonna say no to the company man. I'm gonna say no to the lawmen who disrespect the rights of the people whose taxes pay for their salaries! And I'm gonna say no, I'm gonna say no, I'm gonna say no to Sheriff Tillman Napier, who laughs in our faces while he makes money off our backs!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, you taking actual shot glasses? No, no, no, put those back and pull the goddamn Dixie cups that I brought! Oh, good lord... shot of the cheap stuff for every vote and shot of the good stuff if they bring a friend.

Now make sure you water down that cheap stuff enough so it lasts.

The boys I hired, they know what they're doing.

Alright, Arlo's got a guy hauling folks out of Paden Holler.

That's good, and Emmett Holler?

Well, Arlo's gonna make that run himself.

Arlo's driving a bus? Oh shit, well there's some folks might not make it to the polls.

Ava, baby, how are things on your end?

Oh, the girls are excited to practice their constitutional right to vote, and to give a free hand job for every vote cast for our man, Shelby. They already gave out blowjobs to a couple boys Napier was counting on to haul for him... and convinced them to take the day off.

I'm not sure I oughta be listening to this.

Well, Shelby, now this is the nature of Harlan County politics. The people of Harlan County are ready for a change, they deserve a change, and we gonna win this thing.

Damn straight.

Yes we can!

You're a lucky man, Mr. Quarles. You get to come all the way down here, a place you got no right being. You get to eat our food. You get to drink our whisky. You get to look at our women as you try to take it all for yourself. Why, you know what you are? You're a conquistador. Only we are not your savages. And now you get to leave with your life. Well, I'm hard-pressed to remember the last outsider in your line of work can say that. I hope you've enjoyed your stay... and you never forget who packed your bags.

Mr. Quarles, maybe it is time you leave Kentucky.

I got nowhere else to go.

[Someone knocks on the door. Wynn goes to check]

It's some kid.

See what he wants.

Can I help you? (Donovan backs him up with a gun in his hand) Good call.

Yeah. (pause) Oh! There's a young man with a gun in our trailer, Wynn.

Yeah, I noticed.

Did- did you do something to upset him?

I don't even know him.

DDonovan

You and me got a friend in common.

Oh yeah?

DDonovan

Brady Hughes.

Who's Brady Hughes?

DDonovan

...Go ahead. Tell him.

You're friends with Brady?

DDonovan

Friends enough to know that the last time anyone saw him was with you, getting into a car together.

Brady is a beautiful soul.

DDonovan

I don't want to hear your bullshit!

What would you like to hear?

DDonovan

The truth! I want you to admit that you killed him.

But that's not true.

DDonovan

Then where is he?

I don't know.

DDonovan

Yes, you did! You killed him, and I want to hear you say it.

And then you're going to kill me?

DDonovan

Say it!

How old are you, son?

DDonovan

Old enough-

19? 20? I was 14 years old when I killed my first man. I was given a choice: I would do it myself, or they would do it for me.

DDonovan

You took him from me.

...No. I didn't. My father was a heroin addict. (gets up) He wasn't necessarily an evil man, but he couldn't kick his addiction, couldn't hold a job, either. But to feed his addiction, he used the resources at his disposal.

DDonovan

I don't care about your shit!

Luckily for my father, he had a very... pretty little boy. And plenty of men were willing to pay for my company. What is your name?

DDonovan

Donovan.

That's what it was like for me, Donovan, for many years. (approaches Donovan) And then one day, a man named Theo realized what was happening. You see, Theo believed deeply in family, and one afternoon, an associate of Theo's picked me up from school, and we took a ride in his Cadillac to a warehouse. Theo ushered me in, where inside, on his knees, was my father. I was 14 years old, and I remember how it felt... to suddenly be free. You see, Donovan, I understood your friend Brady. I knew him without really knowing him, do you understand?

DDonovan

Then why'd you hurt him?

"Hurt him?" No, son, I never hurt him. I did everything I could to help him. (points Donovan's gun away and hugs him) And then I set him free. I set him free.

I'm sorry, we're closed.

Sure doesn't look closed.

Yeah, well, we are. We're closed.

Oh, that's right. He's the bouncer now.

Wynn, take him out of here.

I voiced my concerns, and they fell on deaf ears.

You got two minutes-

Marshal, aren't you going to ask me what I want?

I don't think I will, no.

There was an election today in Harlan County, and your man Boyd Crowder pulled a fast one on me. He slipped that hillbilly rug right out from under my feet.

I'm just gonna file that under "Who Gives A Shit?"

Well now, usually I'd be in a position to handle something like that, (snorts) because that's what I do. But then I got to thinking, I'd still have to worry about incurring your wrath.

I'm sorry, my wrath? Uh, you don't need to worry about that. You guys can take each other out.

And your father?

Sure, him too. Take 'em both out.

And that's why you are the way you are, Raylan. 'Cause your daddy's a criminal.

That's it, your two minutes are up.

I understand you've been snooping around about my friend, Brady Hughes.

Brady Hughes? Who's that, that the street kid you killed?

(gets up) You know, I decided upon something tonight, Jim Bob.

Did you?

I did... but I wanted to come down here and talk to you myself, right out of the horse's mouth.

I'm sure that wasn't necessary-

I'm gonna kill you, Raylan. Maybe not tonight, maybe not tomorrow, but some day you'll be walking down the street and I'm gonna put a bullet right in the back of your skull and you're gonna drop.

[Raylan draws his gun and fires it into the ceiling.]

US Marshal! I want everyone out of the building, right now! Get your stuff and get out! (Quarles laughs) Why wait?

Okay, you had your fun. Let's go-

I'm not going anywhere. Neither are you. So how long do you think it'll take before the cops get here?

Mmm, they may not even come. I did show my badge.

And how do we do this?

You draw. I put you down.
