All language subtitles for Murder in a Small Town s02e08 Masterpiece

You don't have to do this.

If you let me go, I won't say anything
to anyone.

You have no idea how important you are.

Consider it a peace offering.

Thanks.

We can now do some time.

I said some things last night. You did?

Yeah. I'm tired.

And I'm angry.

Because I'm thinking I'm more than I can
handle.

So I'm pissed about the budget.

But I understand where you're coming
from.

You just hate me.

Yeah. But I love you.

Yeah?

I got three feet of paperwork to go
through, so... Okay.

Call me when you have some time.

Go.

Good morning, Chief.

How's morale?

Well, all things considered, Turcotte
and Sweetie called in sick.

And the corporal just called, said she's
on her way over. Yeah, she'll be on

desk till the investigation's complete.

Should I call a search?

Oh, he's been doing doubles for over a
month. If anybody deserves a morning,

it's him.

Same as you, boss.

Oh, one more thing.

Uh...

I asked her to wait in reception, but...
Chief Alberg.

Cute.

Assistant Attorney General Lonnie Sue.

What can I do for you, Miss Sue?

Tommy Cummins, the serial killer.

What about him?

Last night, the Attorney General made a
deal.

Cummins agreed to divulge the locations
of his remaining victims.

Closure? Well, that'll be good for the
families.

What's that got to do with me?

He'll only give the information to the
person who arrested him.

That's you.

Let's see, in the last 72 hours, I've
had two abductions, an armed robbery, an

officer -involved shooting, and, uh,
well, I'm critically understaffed.

General Stone is close with Beth
Falconer's family.

They've waited eight years to bury her.

The AG would consider this a personal
favor.

Why the rush?

Louisiana's looking to extradite
Cummins, and it's a... Death penalty

Who broke her the deal?

Cummins made legal counsel.

How did he see him?

Like a man trying to avoid 2 ,000 volts
of electricity.

We'll fly to Seattle. Cummins will give
the locations on the map simple as that.

We'll have you back this afternoon.

Nothing simple with Cummins.

Brett!

You almost ready?

I don't want that.

Well, I made it, and you're eating it.

So what's it about this time? Our
meeting with the principal?

Don't know. What'd you do?

Would you maybe like to try Military
Academy?

So that's the solution.

Get my head blown off. No more Brett. No
more problem.

Well, your father went to Military
Academy, Brett. And you know what? Leave

dad out of this.

Mom?

What? Good morning.

He guaranteed the budget would pass.

And it will eventually. I'll just tweak
some line items and trade some horses.

Eventually, too late.

What? Have you done, Natalie?

Robert went and signed a deal for Bridge
Financing.

If we don't break ground in 30 days, we
forfeit control of the company. Of home

and developments?

God, your husband is an idiot.

Agreed. But what you need to do now is
just stop telling me what I need to do.

Natalie, I am in a position of trust.

We did not have this conversation.

And I will fix it.

You know... Coming!

You know how much this company means to
me.

I will fix it.

Hey!

Hey, I can run back in and grab you one,
if you want.

You know, 16 billion of these cops
and... 16 billion what?

Yeah, I don't remember.

So, you're okay then?

I don't know.

You guys shot someone?

Courtney Andreola. She was 32.

No kids. Her dad lived in Iowa.

I guess she was a blackjack dealer out
in Vegas before she crossed paths with

some guy who, um... I guess we all make
our choices.

You guys sure made yours.

Lethal. Force, that's the term, right?
When the SWAT team goes all Hulk smash?

Vanessa, I didn't have a choice.

Wait, did you pull the trigger?

She had a gun pointed at the back of
Sergeant's head in front of a fundraiser

full of civilians.

No, you know what? I'm sorry. I just
have to get to work.

Has he had many visitors?

Steady stream of documentary filmmakers
until the warden cut him off.

Documentary filmmakers?

They're calling him the canvas killer.

How about we take the show on the road
and get you home?

I'd shake your hand, but, uh... Where's
the first victim?

Hi, Tommy.

It's good to see you. You look good, all
things considered.

How's prison?

You're not my friend.

To be frank, you look better than I'd
hoped.

Where's the first victim?

How's Holly doing?

She's still pursuing photography, I
hope. You know, I meant what I said.

kid could be very special.

Don't test me, Tommy.

By 90, this is the Kwame Parkway. Head
north to Southeast 96th Street. Drive

about a mile.

Grave should be on the south side, top
of the hill.

Clear marker?

Unmarked grave.

You don't want a good cadaver dog.

Where's the second victim?

Second victim, Tommy.

Hey,

that's very good, Carl.

Very good.

Corrupt police chief plots to kill the
lover of an opera singer so he can have

her all to himself.

I lived for art.

I lived for love.

How is Cassandra doing?

Councilwoman Lee now, right?

Bravo. You've got to give her my best.

Now, are you two still together? Because
I know there was a little bit of

trouble there. I'm not doing this,
Tommy.

Doing what? Having a civil conversation?

Trading personal information for the
location of your victims.

Oh, okay.

Somewhere near Ellisville.

I'm going to need more than that.

Well, see, that's the thing.

I can't give you much more than that.

Not with this map. Hey, you know what
would be so much easier?

If I could just show you where they are.

Well, that's not going to happen.

Oh, but that's not really your call,
though, is it?

Frank.

You see, Carl, this is just, this is
really important to me.

This is kind of my life's work, so I
want this thing done right.

Or not at all?

Absolutely. I'll give you your prize.

Sounds as we go.

This is a mistake.

We've got armed guards, an armored
vehicle. If we leave now, there's no

a word to leave to the press. You do
realize that he's planning something?

Well, he's a serial killer.

I'd be more surprised if he wasn't.

But realistically, what can he do?

This is our chance to give closure to
these families.

Your chance.

Really? You give that up?

I'm going to need to take another look
at his cell.

The more I know about his state of mind,
the better prepared I'll be.

I'll make sure that someone moves him
out.

May I?

Thank you.

Uh, Corporal.

How are you?

You know, I've had better days.

They want you to fill this out by the
end of the day.

Protocol.

Is the sergeant? No, the chief gave him
the warning. And he's in Seattle, the

chief, talking to a serial killer.

Well, let's hold down the fort.

Where you get his art supplies?

One of his many admirers.

I know this.

Proigo's nice judgment.

Souls of the damned being condemned to
hell.

It's not finished.

We confiscated his art supplies two
weeks ago.

There was an incident. What kind of
incident?

He stashed a phone in his cell. Wouldn't
tell us where he got it. So the warden

revoked his privileges.

Why didn't you tell me about the phone?

We're telling you now.

Do we know who he was talking to? The
best digital forensics figured was

burner.

Look, we really need to get moving.

Perfect. Stuart, the warden approved you
and Burns for escort.

Okay, I'll prep Cummins for transport.

We'll need tools.

Shovels, pry bar.

Yes, sir.

You need access to the tool shed.

You look like Saint Michael.

Awaiting the dragon.

Shielding humanity from darkness.

Phone records have been sent.

We think if circumstances were
different, that we could have been

You only call one number with that
burner.

My mother. Your mother's dead.

That's right. I keep forgetting that.
Yeah.

So it must have been someone else.

Don't worry. Mom died of natural causes.

The calls follow the schedule.

Same times, same duration.

I'll have my team establish point of
purchase for the burners, have the

send me the visitor log.

I'll try and cross -reference. Candace
Vaughn is her name.

I offer you that in the spirit of our
agreement.

And because I can't stand to see you
suffer like that.

She's an innocent.

It's actually kind of the reason why I'm
doing this.

Who is she?

She wrote me these beautiful letters.

Thoughtful, intelligent. Now, I really
think that you would like her.

A person groupie.

I didn't pick you as the type.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

Not a groupie.

It's more like a guide.

I've really missed our conversations.

Why, you don't believe me?

I don't trust much of anything you say,
Tommy.

You have trouble with trust, don't you?

It's gonna cost you in the long run,
though.

With Cassandra.

You probably already feel that coming,
don't you?

You nervous, Tommy?

I just have to go to the bathroom, Carl.

Candace Vaughn. I'm already on it. We
need to find out everything we can about

her. As soon as I have something, I'll
have something.

Hey, you got the name? Chief?

Isabella, I need you to look into a name
for me.

Candace Vaughn.

You got it, Chief?

Uh, looking now.

Hold on.

Yep.

The van that just drove by.

What? Was it a press van?

I swear I saw one just like it outside
the detention center when I arrived.

Well, no one knows about this trip. We
only knew ourselves two hours ago. No

but Cummins.

Who should say how long he's been
working with this Candace person?

One, we confiscated his phone two weeks
ago.

Two, he hasn't had visitors since.

Three, he hasn't made calls on the
prison phone. And four, A .G. Stone only

the deal last night.

What if he's working with somebody on
the inside?

Maybe Tommy predicted everything you and
your boss were going to do.

and set this date months ago.

You have no idea who you're dealing
with.

Hey, Corporal?

Corporal?

Sorry.

Uh, sorry, what?

Uh, Elsie Sokoloski. Sure, Sarge's wife.
She just called. She wanted to know if

Sarge made it in this morning.

She didn't see him last night, assumed
that he'd come home late and left early,

but now he's not answering his phone.

Okay, car trouble?

Yeah, but wouldn't you just call for a
ride?

Well, let's just check the GPS when his
car gets to be safe. No, you can't. It's

a loner. His car's in the shop.

It's the chief.

Okay, well, don't mention anything until
we know what's going on. Yeah. Okay.

Chief? You get that photo I texted you?

Uh, Bravo, Romeo, Quebec.

Three, four, six, five.

Cascade your car rentals out of Everett.

Um, I'll reach out to the company and
see what they'll tell me without a

warrant. Tell them it was rented to a
Candace Vaughn, V -A -U -G -H -N -C -F.

Maybe they can confirm it.

Uh, Will, do you have an address?

No, just a name and a number for a
burner.

Carl, you ready?

I gotta go.

We gotta find the Sarge.

Yeah.

Hey, Paradise.

I should have seen it when I buried her.
It was so beautiful.

Landscape with the Good Samaritan.

Grand Brand. It's a painting.

See, a man who understands and
appreciates... Does Good Samaritan have

Well, I'm sure she did.

What can a name know, right, Carl?

She had $30 in her wallet. I remember
that.

Here we are.

I start digging.

You've lost weight.

What are you doing here? Hi, Mom. It's
so good to see you. I haven't seen you

ages. You were supposed to be in Spain.

Yes, well, I got the crew short.

Mrs. Lee?

Welcome home. Thank you, Bree. It's good
to be home.

I got tired of the high seas, that's
all.

Mm -hmm.

Now, I am starving.

Have you had lunch?

I'm working, Mom.

No, you should go. I can cover you till
you're back.

We've got a body.

What made her the Good Samaritan?

It was dark and raining.

My car had broken down.

She offered me a ride.

Where am I homie?

Nice name.

$30.

Well, I'm not a thief, Carl.

I'm calling forensics.

Oh, you never forget your first.

According to the rental company, that
man was supposed to be on the lot this

morning. They're trying to get a hold of
the employee who closed up shop last

night. They give a name for that
employee?

No. They want to talk to her first to
make sure this isn't some kind of

misunderstanding. What about Candace
Vaughn?

I found six people with that name in the
state and 72 in the country.

Let's get moving, Carl.

We've got quite a drive in front of us.

Stay on the rental company.

Will do.

Tell me about the next victim.

Victims, Carl.

Plural.

This isn't about atonement. This is an
exhibition.

Corporal, you're going to want to hear
this.

Ms. Sokolowski.

Liza called her dad last night. She
needed a ride home from a party out in

bush. Soon, like, what time?

I don't know, midnight?

He'd have to take Cypress Valley Road.

Yeah, except he never showed up. And she
got home at what?

4 a .m. And went to sleep.

I never heard about it until 10 minutes
ago. You know what? It is probably just

car trouble.

Mm -hmm.

Cell reception is terrible out there if
his car broke down. I'm going to go take

a look right now.

Uh, who else was at this party, Liza?

I don't know. A bunch of kids. Go
inside. Write down names.

I don't even know half of them. Your
father's missing.

Your mom is right.

We need to talk to anyone who might know
anything.

Danica must have been there. Right? The
two of you?

Because they used to know mom. I'm
calling her mother.

Five, 36, 37.

It's right about there.

You remember the name of this victim?

She was my last before I moved to
Gibson's. I remember that.

I'll call it in.

Sounds good.

Well, I can hear your ears grinding,
Carl. Why don't you just ask me your

question? All the victims of yours that
I know of you staged to resemble

paintings. Why bury these ones?

Well, that's disappointing, Carl.

What, are you looking for some little
pattern?

Like a modus operandi?

That's how you live your life.

Boring.

See, to me, this is a creative process.

It's a collaboration.

And they belong to me forever.

Marianne Nichols.

Is that her name?

Not one of mine.

Who is she?

She asked my point. The name itself
doesn't mean that much until I say Jack

Ripper.

You can call them victims all you want.
These are my muses.

We've got something.

You know, I heard what you said about
this being an exhibition.

You're right.

What kind of artist would hide his work
from the world?

I'm at Pseudo Lake. There's no sign of
him, but I'll keep looking on my way

back. Hang on. I've got another call.

Layla, I'm going to have to call you
back. Don't worry.

I'll keep you updated.

Thank you.

Compliments to the chef.

You were looking forward to this trip
for ages. You just decided to hop off in

Spain? Too much of a good thing.

So, tell me, how is your police chief?

He's fine.

Maybe you'll let me meet him one of
these days?

Well, you're never here.

Yes, well, at least I get to see him on
TV.

Looking very grave and masterful.

What about the two of you? How are you
two doing?

What is wrong?

Well, why don't you tell me?

Nothing.

Fine. There's just a bit of work
friction. Between a cop and a librarian.

It's my other job.

Town council.

Gibson's PD took on investigations for
smaller towns up and down the coast,

which means that they need more police
officers, which means that Carl needs

more money. And you voted down the
budget.

Christy told me.

How long have you been back?

Yesterday. And you've spoken to Christy
Holman already?

She called me.

Because we're friends.

She's also my doctor. She asked you to
talk to me about the budget. She told me

what you had done, and I'm not judging,
but we both know how stubborn you can

be. Wait.

You're a doctor?

Yeah.

Routine checkup.

Not to worry.

Pieces. Well, significance arises from
interpretation.

So what does it represent to you?

Come here.

I gotta tell you, Carl.

I will forever be grateful to you.

You set me free.

I'm afraid there's a misunderstanding,
Cummins. Oh, no.

No misunderstanding.

You freed me from my double life.

Oh, this lying.

When I talk to Candace now, I can be
fully,

completely myself.

I bet you have no idea what that feels
like, do you, Carl?

I may look like a prisoner, but I
wouldn't trade my chains for yours.

Yeah. Meredith.

Boy, that's... Yeah.

Beth Falconer was one of Cummins'
suspected victims. She disappeared eight

ago.

Meredith is Beth's sister. They're
practically twins. I'm sending you her

now.

It's a trap!

This is my show, not yours.

Hey, I hope you can make it for the next
act.

What if I see one cop, one helicopter?

They'll be held to pay.

Come on.

Got

it.

Okay, start the IVs. I'm on my way now.

Crispy. Uh, baby on the way. Gotta get
to the hospital. You have a problem? You

talk to me, not to my mother.

Helen asked how you were doing on town
council, and I gave her my honest

assessment. If you've been willing to
compromise... I tried again and again

again. We could have worked together. We
could have teamed up to resolve this

budget. I could have even helped you get
some funding for the library.

Quid pro quo.

It was called cooperation.

You know, I don't know why you don't
change your vote anyway, given the news.

What news?

You haven't heard.

Sergeant Sokolowski.

Overworked, exhausted, his car went off
the road.

Oh, when?

Last night. They just found him an hour
ago.

Is he okay?

We hope and we pray.

I'll check in on him when I get there.

I'm getting angry.

You're okay.

I'm okay.

You're okay?

Okay? I got this. Go. Go!

You escaped on foot.

Send an ambulance.

Hurry!

Police! Drop the weapon, Meredith.

How do you know my name? I'm not asking
again. Drop the weapon.

Hands over your head.

May the copper cloud tell me, come in.

And you're Beth Falconer's sister.

You've been tracking us all day.

You can't respond.

Follow the directions.

One, every four hours, as needed.

And try to avoid alcohol if you can.

Aren't you a hoot?

This should help with the pain, but we
need to run more tests.

So we don't even know what this is.
Well, we will know more after the CT

I mean, for now, we don't want to panic.

Have you told Cassandra?

I don't want her worrying about me.

You should tell her.

My sister was never found, okay? I
wanted information.

He'd never tell me, no matter how hard I
tried.

The grenade in that coffin, he tell you
to put it there? What? No.

He wanted me to secure a vehicle, then
drive him to Canada.

I was going to take him prisoner.

Make him tell me more about this.

He ever explain why he picked this
location?

He just said the mind is its own place,
and in itself can make a heaven of hell

a hell of a place. Paradise lost.

He's recreating Dante's Inferno. This is
Tommy's journey into the underworld.

Did he tell you where he wanted to meet
you?

There's an access road a few miles north
of the I -2 interchange.

I'm parked at a junction. He said to be
there by nine.

What are you doing?

I've been in this location office. This
will be here in 15 minutes. You tell him

what he told me.

You can't...

You need to get back.

You need a break, Corporal.

There's too much to do.

You know that.

Can you just sit down for a second?

I don't know if anyone else is saying
this to you, but you need to see

Look, I get it.

Cops, you gotta be tough as old boots,
except you bleed the same as anyone, and

the stuff that you go through.

Go ahead.

Tell me my own business.

I was out for six months.

A couple years back.

When my partner was killed.

Stress leave.

I... I didn't realize.

And I don't think it helped.

I might as well have just powered
through.

I just heard. It's here.

Indestructible. The doctor says it's
going to be okay. Oh, thank God.

We made it in time.

He's in there resting.

Me meaning Lava?

No, he had some help from my friends.
Except none at all from town council.

I heard part of your speech online.

You know, I admire a woman who kicks
butt even when it's my own butt.

Look, I get it.

You took a stand, made your case.

Power to you.

Um, is Carl... He's in Seattle sorting
out Tommy Cummins.

Tommy Cummins. He doesn't know about the
sergeant. We thought he's got enough to

deal with. Yeah, of course.

Lies, take your sister to the cafeteria.

I'll join you in a few.

Alfie, I am so sorry.

That was for my husband?

Yeah.

A bouquet of Frosties would be better,
but all things considered... Big Raph

wants... Sid?

New. At town council.

Impressive.

Did I miss tea with you and my mother?
It was a house call. She was dropping

her prescription.

Pain relievers. It might make her a
little bit drowsy, so don't let her

Yeah, sure, because she always listens
to me.

Christy, what's going on?

Oh, I'm calling an emergency meeting
tomorrow, town council, to ratify the

budget. I need to fix it, allocate the
monies correctly.

Okay, I'll see you there.

Hey!

You're so funny!

Normally my mutants plead for their
lives.

Please know where I am.

You need to let me out right now.

Let me out!

And you still have hope that they're
going to save you, huh?

You know, I had great hopes for this
piece.

And I thought I was going to have to
abandon it.

But that's the funny thing about hope,
isn't it?

Even when you know it's all over, your
hope

Stays alive.

Very. What?

Black. Breath.

Hi, I was starting to think I wouldn't
hear from you. I got pulled into

something.

So you're... Yeah, Layla told me. Where
are you?

I just wanted to apologize for a lot of
things.

I gotta go.

Carl, what's going on?

You're the love of my life.

You've made me feel more alive than I
ever thought possible.

And I need you to know that.

Whatever happens.

You're freaking me out right now. What
the hell is going on, Carl?

Carl!

Well,

well, well.

Look who's here.

You know, this used to be a storage
facility owned by my family. You can see

I've made some changes.

Put it down.

Welcome to hell, Carl.

Let her go.

Oh, it's him, all right.

Your savior has arrived, just as we'd
hoped.

What are we doing here, Tommy?

Don't insult me, Carl. You know what
this is.

I needed you to see it.

Dante's inferno!

Bingo!

Let me be your Virgil, Carl. Let me
teach you something.

She is right on the edge.

Oh, my God, don't you feel alive?

We can only truly feel alive, Carl, in
the face of death.

Backup's on the way, Cummings. Uh -oh!

We're defined by our choices, Carl. Now
the choice is yours. Me?

Or her.

Hang on!

You okay?

You okay?

Oh, Candace, I knew I could count on
you. Good job!

Good job!

His family owns the warehouse.

He's been sashing these bodies for God
knows how long.

They've hunted 16 so far.

Once the bodies have been identified,
I'll notify the families.

You can start with Meredith Falconer.

We found Beth's ID.

I'm gonna go see Cummins.

What are you gonna say to him?

Louisiana was his choice.

Hey.

He's still sleeping.

The doctor said he needs more than
anything, so...

Don't bug him.

Sounds like good advice.

I really thought he wasn't coming.

I thought he would just leave me out
there.

I just thought that's stupid, right?

No, no, no.

We all have stupid thoughts, okay?

It's just part of being human.

I'm awake.

I wanted to see you.

God, am I ever glad you're here.

You look awful.

I'll go take a shower. No, Carl.

Please don't go.

Sit.

Are you okay?

Tommy Cummins.

Yeah. I was asked to do a job and my God
told me to say no, but I just couldn't

resist.

I almost got people killed.

You thought you were going to get
yourself killed when you found him?

We never walk away angry, okay?

Agreed.

And you never get yourself killed, okay?

Yeah, I'll do my best.

Good morning. Sorry I'm late.

Oh, you're allowed.

Oh, hey, hey.

Someone left.

This for you. It was sitting on the desk
when I arrived.

I don't know who left it.

Oh, my God.

What? It looks like someone hacked the
mirror.

Hello. Next Tuesday.

What's this?

I'm waiting for the right moment.

I'm going to need to take your
fingerprints.

Murder in a Small Town.

All new next Tuesday on Fox.
