All language subtitles for The Equalizer s04e04 Eighteen with a Bullet

I don't want to be alone.

Gina, you won't be.

He specializes in teenage girls. They
end up with a heavy habit and a lot of

memories.

It's my daughter. She's in trouble.

I am not going to let you destroy
Beverly Weaver as you destroyed Gina

Where is she? I think she's dead. Don't
worry.

I'm going to take care of you. You are a
parasite.

Take a good look at yourself.

You were going to ruin me!

Never been lost before.

All you wanted came to you.

You never see how people change when
trouble's around.

I know at times I've been untrue.

Many times I failed you.

But underneath this stony cast is a
delicate heart.

You and I have searched the darkness.

Light a fire just to watch it burn.

We could try to think so simple.

Watch the lights take a different turn.

We made it this far. We can see out the
rest.

To admit that you're wrong is the
hardest thing you can do.

Take a good look at yourself.

Okay, here she is, folks.

New York's hottest 18 -year -old. The
lady whose chops have been knocking your

socks off.

Beverly Heats.

You are crazy, aren't you?

Guilty. And you are going to a party.

Now let's go dazzle them.

You know, I've never had a birthday
party where I didn't know anyone.

They want to know you. They previewed
your record and loved it. You know what

that means?

You are happening.

Happy birthday, kiddo. Happy birthday,
kiddo.

Hey, look sexy, Gina.

Oh, hey.

talk to you gina great to see you how's
it going oh great hey you know i spoke

to a producer about you this morning
he's interested very hey greg hi david

give him a couple of days and then send
him a tip at that last demo we did he'll

be on the phone with an offer like that
yeah right and the text in the mail man

you never quit do you come on you

know these things take time

Look, why don't I drop by your place a
bit?

We can talk.

You do that, Greg.

You do that.

Hey, you're Gina Ross, right?

I have all your records.

So you're the new meal ticket, huh?

Yeah, but that's supposed to be.

Hey, what's that supposed to mean?

Hey, Gina, we have to go.

There's someone I want Beverly to meet.

Now remember what I said.

That's it, Gina.

Please, fail me this.

I'm on my way. Chill out. Gina, this
looks terrible. What happened? Gina's

having a tough time lately.

I'm worried about her.

She'll snap out of it. She's a tough
kid.

You know what? I remember when her first
record went gold.

I came down there at 16.

Can you believe that? 16.

That's way too big.

So can you.

Better.

I don't really think so.

Absolutely. You see these things?

They know.

They know that you are going to be the
biggest thing to have the same since

Madonna. Do you believe that?

I don't know. I guess so.

Okay.

You know what?

I think on your 18th birthday, you can
drink 18 glasses of champagne, don't

You're too serious to pick up on me like
this.

It's your birthday.

I don't want to fight.

We'll talk about it later at home.

Why I let her get to me like this.

Mother's no more button to push.

Mine was an extra, Dad.

Still is.

She could give you a slap.

It never was like this before.

We used to get along great.

What happened?

Ever since my record... Hey, hey.

Lighten up on it, then.

It's not easy for your mother.

Big adjustments.

I know, but she thinks she'd understand.

I mean, this is a big night for me,
Greg.

I know.

That's why I'm not going to let anyone
spoil it for you.

Including your mother.

Can I smile?

That's it.

That's it.

Hot coffee?

You're beginning to sound like my
mother.

Not yet.

Thank you, Greg.

It's my daughter.

She's in trouble.

Well, what kind of trouble, Mrs. Weaver?

No, no, please. I can't discuss this
over the phone.

I was on my way to work, but then I
just... I couldn't face work, and so...

right, all right.

I understand.

Can you tell me your address?

Yes, I live at 305 Riverside Drive.

All right, I'll be there in about 20
minutes, all right?

She needs to be nurtured, not used up
and thrown away.

Tell me, Mrs Weaver, when your daughter
signed this contract with the man,

Rivers, did he apply any pressure in any
way?

Did he make any promises that he
couldn't fulfil?

No. No, no, it was all completely legal.

Well, Mrs Weaver, your daughter is 18
years old. I don't quite see exactly

I can do.

Besides which, you haven't told me the
whole truth, have you?

Your daughter had some other problems,
didn't she?

Yes.

After her... After her father died... I

went out with a lot of different men.

One of them became my manager.

I used to be a singer, like Beverly.

I was gone a lot of the time.

While I was out of the house.

Are you trying to tell me that he
molested her?

I wanted to kill him.

I guess I'm sure you did.

Did you call the police?

Yes.

And I just make things worse for
Beverly.

For months, she didn't come out of her
room. She wouldn't talk to anyone.

I can't lose her again.

So you've discovered anything?

Will change my opinion of the world of
rock and roll?

Uh, no.

And if Greg Rivers were your manager,
your opinion would be even worse.

He specializes in teenage girls, ties
them up in long -term contracts. He gets

all the cash, they end up with a heavy
nose, having a lot of bad memories.

If they're lucky.

Meanwhile, Mr. Rivers, I presume, goes
on to other victims.

You got it.

This is where we're going.

Make your own video.

Rivers is the nastiest thing to crawl
the gutter since he's playing. His

favorite toy is a 9mm Luger. And he's
connected.

He's got his hooks into people all over
the city.

This guy we're about to meet used to be
the hottest DJ in the big app.

Hit it!

What exactly is this place?

Every teenager's dream, McCall.

For $29 .95, it can lip -sync your way
to immortality.

My goodness me, just think of it. When I
was a child, the great excitement was

to play a few cents and go into a booth
and have your photograph taken.

Things change.

You know, I really have tried to like
this kind of music.

Mr. Grant.

Yesterday I had ten Tina Turner's. Today
everybody wants to be Robert Palmer.

How can I help you, Mr. Cole?

Can you tell me about Greg Rivers?

I first met Mr. Rivers right after I had
been promoted to program director at

WZAD.

Nicest guy I ever met.

Until I refused to program one of his
acts.

Then I started getting threatened phone
calls.

Then it was my car, windows, doors,
everything smashed.

And every time something happened, Greg
would show up, smiling.

And he'd ask me, shouldn't I change my
mind?

But you didn't change your mind.

No, no, I was a real tough guy.

But then the heavy pressure time came,
and next thing I know, I'm out of a job.

Everywhere.

And Greg Rivers' little client, Gina
Rock, had massive airplay and a hit

Sometimes I wish I had just played the
damn song.

I would say on balance that you did the
right thing. Yeah, I'm a real hero.

And working here is my reward.

See you, man.

It doesn't have to be.

It's going to be wonderful.

That's Reese.

Mine too.

It's Gina.

Hello. Where the hell were you last
night?

It was late. I didn't want to disturb
you.

Thanks, Greg.

Thanks for looking out for me.

You and me have been through some times,
huh?

Some real times, right? Sure.

What are you saying?

I'm saying don't jerk me.

people that would like to know about
some of those times. How, like, maybe a

or a reporter would like to know the
real Greg Rivers story.

And, oh, I know it all.

Don't I?

Look, if you've got a problem, we can
work it out. Oh, yeah, we can work it

Sure we can. That is why you are coming
over here now.

Tell Beverly I'll be back.

Something's come up.

Sure.

Not walking.

I did what you said.

All the sessions, all the tours,
everything you wanted. And it got you to

top. It got me a $700 a week habit and a
voice I don't even recognize.

That's not true. Your voice is fine.
Listen to me.

You and Little Miss Meal Ticket are
through, okay?

You are not pushing me over like all the
others because I know every little

sleazy thing you've done.

The payoffs.

The drug deals.

I own you.

You are staying with me.

Gina.

I fought for you.

I got you to the top.

And I'm going to make sure I get you up
there again.

Look, I know times aren't so good now.

But we'll get through it.

Sure, Beverly's a meal ticket.

But that's all she is.

The important thing is nothing has
changed between us.

Don't touch me.

Hey, we used to talk about this.

Remember?

We said if one of us got in a jam, the
other would be there.

Remember?

One more time.

Miles, where's Greg?

He said he'd be right back.

Find my baby a good place to sleep next.

All

right,

that was a hit single from Beverly Heat,
which is zooming up the charts. Right

now it's at number 18 with a bullet
beside it, which means it is headed

for number one and seated right next to
me here in the studio.

is the lady who sings it, and if you
were sitting where I'm sitting, you

know why her last name is Heat.

Well, thank you. It's great to be here.
Well, it is great to have you here, and

it is call time, which means this is
your chance to talk to a star. So get on

your phones, give us a buzz, and
experience a little live heat. Okay,

caller number one. Go ahead.

Hi, Beverly.

Hi. So I just wanted to say that,
Beverly, you are too cool.

Well, thank you.

Hey, thank you.

Don't forget, folks, Beverly's next
gig...

Saturday night at the China Club, so be
there, okay? It looks like we got

another caller.

Okay, let's hit that one, shall we?
Okay, go ahead.

Hey, Beverly.

I'm your number one fan.

Well, hi, number one fan. How you doing?

Yeah, I love your new record.

Well, thanks.

You know, I love your voice, too. You
remind me of another singer.

Really? Who?

Gina Rocks.

Wow, I think she's great. Thank you.

Yeah, I just hope that what happened to
her doesn't happen to you.

The guys are cranked. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

I can't wait.

Sorry about that, folks. Looks like we
lost our connection, but hey, that

stuff's gonna happen. That's all right,
because we got another caller standing

by. Hello, go on. You are talking to the
hottest heat I know.

Beverly Heat, okay?

Watch my lips.

the photo session half an hour ago.

Are you okay?

Greg, what happened to Gina?

What do you mean?

I mean, she was the best and then she
just dropped off the charts.

What can I tell you?

She hit a rough spot and then wouldn't
listen to anybody but herself.

Because I'm going to take care of you
every step of the way.

You've been under a lot of pressure.

There's no one who's made it to where
you are who doesn't need a little help

once in a while.

Let's put the sparkle back in your eyes.

Hey, what did you say?

You said you were going to take care of
me.

Every step of the way.

I'm sorry we can't do that.

We're going to somewhere rather
important.

It's not going to take us very long.
When we get there, I think you'll

understand why.

Who are you?

My name is Robert McCall.

I represent somebody who cares for you
very deeply.

Wants to make sure that no harm comes to
you.

Where are we going?

We're going to take a look into your
future.

Why don't you just relax, Bevan?

Just relax.

That's where you've always wanted to be,
Beverly. You're in the home of a star.

The home of Gina Rocks, to be precise.
Why don't you have a good look around

you?

This is where Gina lives?

Yes, it is.

Do you know how much money Greg Rivers
made out of her? Well over a million

dollars. Do you know how much money she
made?

$122 ,000.

Do you know what she did with the money?

I went out of here.

You're not going yet.

There's nothing I think you should see.

That money, Beverly, went into her arm.

And that is precisely what is going to
happen to you on your star ride with Mr.

Rivers.

Where is she?

I think she's dead.

And I think that Greg Rivers killed her.
That's a lie. It's not a lie.

I think he bled her dry.

And then after he finished telling her
how much he loved her and taking her

money, he threw her out.

No, Greg wouldn't do that. Wouldn't he?

Well, now, why don't you ask him?

And when he tells you that she
disappeared to feed her habit, why don't

him why a heroin addict...

would leave that behind.

Beverly, come on.

Don't you see what's going on here?

Who do you think sent this guy? Who
wants us apart more than anything?

My mother.

Absolutely. Where else could they be
from?

She wouldn't do that, Greg.

That's horrible. He said you tried to
kill Gina.

She's going to win, isn't she?

She's got you right where she wants you.

Well, then what happened to her?

How the hell am I supposed to know?

Beverly.

Beverly.

Beverly.

Gina is a very sick girl.

Addicts like her, they disappear into
the streets.

That's exactly... what he said you'd
say. Because it's the truth.

For God's sake, Beverly.

If Gina were dead, where are the police?

Where are the, I don't know, things that
go on if there's a murder?

Please.

Think.

Did you sleep with her?

Manage singers.

I never get emotionally involved.

You're the first.

Listen to me.

Don't let your mother destroy us.

That's what she wants to do.

Break away from her.

Who the hell are you?

Oh, I am someone you really wouldn't
want to get to know.

What are you talking about?

I am not going to let you destroy
Beverly Weaver in the same way that you

destroyed Gina Rocks.

In fact, I'm about to destroy your
little world. Peace by Nazi peace.

You are a parasite.

You are the worst kind of scum
imaginable.

From now on, there is one thing you can
count on in your life.

You can count on me being a part of it.

My name is Robert McCall.

Testing. My name is Robert McCall.

Why'd you do it, Greg?

Why'd you do it, Greg?

Why'd you do it, Greg?

Why'd you do it, Greg? Why'd you do it,
Greg? Why'd you do it, Greg? Why'd

you do it, Greg?

Why'd you do it, Greg?

So is revenge sweet? Why?

I don't know.

I'll tell you one thing, though.

Sure like to be around in rivers.

Here's how I doctored this tape.

Come on, come on.

Hey, are you okay?

Yeah, sure.

What are you talking about?

Nothing, I... I'm fine,

okay? Just fine. Get in. Go.

Give him a couple minutes.

Then hurry.

Hey, do you think you should be doing
that?

Hey, Bev.

29 years old, all right.

SRO tonight.

It's going to be a great show.

Great show.

This is the story of the real Greg
Rillers.

Deception. Greg Rillers.

Real name is George Simmons.

What the hell? I'm Gina Rooks.

1977, extortion.

1979,

statutory rape.

1981, appearing.

1984, you're in. Tom, what is this? Turn
it off! Turn it off!

1986, attempted murder.

Hello, Beverly. Welcome home.

Where's my mother?

What's happened?

Your mother is in a safe place, I have
to assure you.

Please don't worry about her.

You've had a terrible time lately,
haven't you?

It will soon be over.

Now, you're a very strong lady, and I
need your help.

You have a concert tonight, don't you?

And I'm sure that your inclination is
not to be there.

But I need you both to be there.

Please.

Will you help me?

Fine, I have to.

I don't care what it takes. Just get her
back here now.

This thing must stop.

Yeah?

Greg?

If I think I'll... Listen to me.

Give me a chance to explain.

It's okay.

You don't have to.

I'm sorry.

You have to believe me.

I'm very, very sorry.

I know.

Listen, I freaked out, but I'm okay now.

You know, I'm not a kid anymore.

I know how things are.

Where are you?

Tell me where you are. I'll send a limo.
I'm okay, Greg.

I'm all right, really.

I want to do the concert tonight.

That's my girl.

I knew you wouldn't let me down.

I couldn't do that.

I know how much it means to you.

After this, why don't we take a little
break?

I know this great place in Vermont.

Sounds fantastic.

Listen, I have to go warm up.

So, um, I'll meet you at the club, okay?

Sure, sure. I'll send the sound
technicians over there right now.

No, no, I can handle it.

It'd be better if I did it alone.

So, Beth, I'll meet you there.

Beverly? Beverly?

Hello?

This is gonna be all right.

You and I are birds in the ocean.

Like fire, you walk, you burn.

You and I are birds in the ocean.

Hello,

Greg.

Why'd you do it, Greg?

Why?

I didn't.

It was just a good time.

You know, like Vermont.

You tried to kill me. No, I didn't.

I just wanted the best for you. You
wanted me dead so no one would know who

really are.

A murderer.

A murderer.

No. A murderer.

A murderer.

A murderer.

No!

You deserved it!

You were going to take me down!

You were going to ruin me!

I've earned what I've got, and I'll keep
it.

Put the weapon down, Mr. Rivers.

Please, put the weapon down.

Please, don't give me an excuse.

Put it down now on the table.

Thank you.

It might interest you to know that the
police found Gina's body today.

Carl, I think I'd better go.

I'll talk to my mother, Astor.

I have a son.

And Scott has made all sorts of
mistakes.

Oh, goodness knows, I've had my share
more than my share.

But you know, we love each other.

In spite of all the flaws, we love each
other.

Your mother loves you.

I've known that about her from the
minute I first met her.

I don't want to see her.

Not after everything I've done.

She must feel... She feels love.

And gratitude that you are alive.

Do you really think so?

Oh, come on, Beverly. What do you think?

You take care of yourself and keep
singing.

It is good for the soul.

I will.

Thank you, Mr. McCall.

I want to go home.

People change when trouble's around.

I know at times I've been untrue.

Many times I failed you.

But underneath this stony cast is a
delicate heart.

Take a different shot.
