True Detective · Season 1, Episode 15

Amelia Reardon and Wayne Hays in “Unfinished Business”

The boys couldn't stop telling me stuff. I was pretty tremendous. I think I have a future at this. [sees him reading her book] You're reading it! Finally.

Yeah, I read it. Kept seeing my name. [pause] Are you drunk?

No! I had a drink at dinner. This detective took me out to eat.

Ah. Terrific.

I got a lot of info from him. Listen, her fingerprints were found just in the cosmetics aisle. Looks like she was probably a customer. They have the prior week's surveillance footage. I think they're going to let me look at it.

[angry but controlled] I didn't get any of the shit you wanted at Wal-Mart.

[confused] OK... did something happen? Are the kids alright?

The kids are fine.

Amelia Reardon': Are you alright?

I'm fine. But one thing? One favor? [throws the book across the room] Do not come bouncing in here, half in the bag, all giddy about this shit, alright? Can you do that? Can you summon the mental resolve to shut up about this shit with me?

If you feel this way, you don't have to talk to me like that. You can just tell me.

You've been told. Now, why don't you check on your kids, since you haven't seen them all day. They're supposed to be in bed.

Fuck off! I'm with them five times the amount you are for a job that treats you like shit!

I don't really feel like trading curses. I said my piece.

I'm not gonna stop, Wayne. [leaves]
