All language subtitles for Rust Creek (2018) (ENGLISH)

Hi, Sawyer. It's Cindy Mansfield

from Landler-Bayne calling.

I just wanted to confirm
your interview this week..

- Yes.
- We are looking at a few other candidates.

But as you know we were all
very impressed with the work

you did last summer and we
have a great feeling about you.

I've emailed you all the details

so we will see you on
Wednesday, 9:30 a.m.

at our offices in DC Safe drive!

State police are on the scene

rerouting traffic
to surface streets

that's gonna create a
little bit of chaos here

but that's holiday
traffic for you.

Yeah, it's a
nightmare down there.

Just in time for Thanksgiving
weekend, unfortunately.

Rerouting.

If you're traveling around that
area, your best bet is to stay

as far away from the
highway as possible.

We will keep you
informed throughout the day

only on 1270 WLUN, Kentucky.

Okay, would you rather
have a room full of pennies

or a stack of pennies as high
as the Empire State Building?

Uh, I think I'd
take the big stack.

I'd be rich.

Weak.

Rerouting to Washington, DC.

In 30 miles, turn right.

In 500 feet make a right turn.

Make a right turn.

It's not even a road.

Guess we're
taking the next right.

Make a U-turn, if possible.

Give me better
directions, if possible.

Make a U-turn, if possible.

Turn left.

Think they seen us?

Okay.

This doesn't make any
sense. Just reroute me.

Yes! Suck it, phone!

You need some help there, miss?

Oh, no. I'm fine. I'm
just stretching my legs.

Yeah. And your map.

Right. I'm just
getting my bearings.

Yeah, we seen you
up there and thought

maybe you was having
some sort of trouble.

Oh, no. I'm... I'm
just passing through.

You sure you're okay?

You look a little upset.

And these woods, they
can be a crazy place

especially if
you ain't familiar.

I guess I'm a little
frustrated, you know.

These maps aren't super useful.

Ain't that the truth.

So... so that's it then?

You're just a tourist
passing through here?

Yeah? Well shit, if it's directions
you're looking for, me and Buck..

That's my brother Buck there.

We lived here our whole lives.
So we can get you most anywhere.

Uh, well, um, do you know
the best way back to 64?

I-64?

That's quite a ways.

You're lucky you ran into us.

Yeah.

'Cause there ain't but a couple
roads run through these hills

and well, you know, you got
yourself turned around nowhere.

Alright. See here? Right here.

You just keep on this way

and you'll make yourself
back to the highway, okay.

But you'll be
backtracking quite a bit.

Well, guess I'm
taking the scenic route.

Yeah. I guess you are.

Alright.

Oh, hey, hey! Almost
forgot. Your map.

Oh, thanks.

Say, you won't make it
anywhere before sundown

and we live just up a ways.

So how about you come
on over for some dinner?

- Holli, shouldn't we just...
- Oh, he ain't going anywhere.

What do you say?

Thanks, but I really should
be getting going, so...

No.. That... that... that
might not be the best idea.

I mean, you got lost driving around
here and that was in broad daylight.

And you don't wanna be
out here after dark, trust me.

Listen, no offense, but you
are starting to make me feel

very uncomfortable right now.

Is that a fact?

Well, listen, we just want
you to, uh... uh, be comfortable.

That's all we want.

And it's gonna get real
cold out here real quick.

So why don't you just come
on back up to our place?

We'll have a drink or two

maybe, you know,
smoke a little somethin'?

It'd be like a little party.

Yeah? Come on, let's all..

Goddamn! Bitch cut me!

Yah!

- Now hold on a second, honey.
- Fuck off!

Get that knife away from her!

She's gettin' away.

That way. That way.

- You sure?
- Yeah. Come on.

Okay. I can figure this out.

Yeah.

Definitely.

Shit!

It's going to be fine.

Everything's going to be fine.

Fording County Sheriff's
Office, Deputy Katz speaking.

Hold on.

Sheriff, line one.

This is O'Doyle.

Hey, sheriff

this is Penny from
the Charleston office.

I have a stranded vehicle report

for that two-five-oh
county road.

If we could get your
registration report

as soon as possible, our
office is gonna be closed

due to the holiday.

Penny, could you, uh, could
you hold on a minute, honey?

Mm-hm.

What she want?

Uh, just an abandoned car.

Uh, it got me thinking.

That, uh, hanging
fella, the Hispanic.

- What's his name?
- That's Edwin Garro.

Yeah, yeah, that Garro fella.

We should see if he had any
vehicles registered in his name.

Check them against
abandon vehicle reports.

You think this might be his car?

No, no, timeline's all wrong

but maybe something
got picked up last week.

Uh, it's a long shot, but, you
know, due diligence and all.

I'm on it.

Hello, Penny. Yeah,
I'm sorry about that.

Uh, so you say
it's up on 250, huh?

Hey!

Okay.

Hey! Over here! Help!

Ah.

Ow.

Phew!

Well, dangit!

You're just as quiet
as a cottonmouth

when you wanna be, huh?

You here on official
business, sheriff

or this is just a social call?

I ain't here to take a bunch
of lip, you can count on that.

I got a call about an
abandoned vehicle

at the bend, down by Rust Creek.

Well, as you can see, we
prefer to abandon our vehicles

right here at home.

Well, I just seen you and
Buck tramplin' up from that creek

every damn day, so, uh

when I get a call
from the state police...

State? What do the
staties gotta do with it?

Nothing, yet.

If we seen
something I'd tell you

but the plain fact is
we weren't up there.

Now you can come out
here puffing up your chest

all you want, but it
don't change the facts.

Boy, you must think I'm some
kinda a prize dummy, huh?

Well I got news for you..

Easy, sheriff!

Jesus!

You a bit, you a bit
jumpy, Quickdraw.

You hurt there?

Huntin' accident.

Oh, you're bleeding right there.

You should get that stitched up.

It's just a scratch.

Did you get that scratch
up by Rust Creek?

Like I said..

...we ain't been
up there in days.

Alright, well..

I tried.

I tried.

Ah.

Oh, shit!

Ow. Good as new.

Everything's fine.

Somebody will see the car..

They'll find me here.

I'm in the fucking woods.

Whoo! Holy shit!

- Ha-ha-ha!
- That was amazing!

That shit was amazing!

Did you see that fucker fly?

Come on, Buck.
Let's go check it out!

Ho-ly shit.

Will you look at this? We
bull's-eyed a goddamn oak tree!

They ain't never gonna
send nobody this far off road.

Ah, shit. Now all we
gotta do is find that bitch.

She was cut pretty deep, Holli.

She ain't gonna last
out here too long.

Can't we just go back...

Not until they find a
body we're gonna have

O'Doyle and the staties
up our asses, Buck.

But if they find her, won't they
be all over the place anyway?

No, not all over.

Just around where
they find the body.

Get it? Good.

Come on, we'll
start at the creek

work our way back down the road.

- Fuck.
- Move your fat ass. This way.

Let's go.

Come on, now watch
your steps there, Buck.

Oh, my God!

Oh.

Come on.

Ain't even dry.

Come on.

Come on.

Oh, come on.

Come on.

There.

Mom.

Uh, if you ever get
this somehow, I..

...I wanted you to know that..

...I... I should..

Who are you?

Oh, my God.

What are you doing out here?

God!

Who the fuck are you?

You were supposed to drink that.

Stay the hell away from me.

Put that down. Put that down.

Take another step and I'll
throw this in your fucking face.

- Careful now. That's my..
- I'm serious, motherfucker!

I'll burn your fucking face off!

What the fuck..

- Hey! What was all that about?
- Hey.

Oh, just sheriff stuff.

Did you ask them about that SUV?

Um, I didn't know you were
taking on "The Big SUV Case."

I... I'm just curious. You know,
d... did they have an alibi?

Alibi for... for what?

For whatever was
going on with that SUV.

Nick, do you, do you have
such an abundance of free time

that you need to invent
crimes to investigate

just to stave off the boredom?

No, sir, I just...

Because if you do, I would
love someone to tackle

"The Case of the Moving
Violations Paperwork

That's Backed Up
to Early October."

Point taken, sheriff.

But that SUV thing, I mean,
doesn't that seem odd to you?

A vehicle like that, abandoned,
in the middle of the day

no driver in sight?

Are you second guessing me, son?

No, sir. But..

Speak plain.

You do have a way
of treating the locals

with a certain deference.

Nick... you're a good deputy.

You're a good man.

I appreciate your commitment.

So I'm just gonna
say this one time

and I think it oughta be enough.

Chief.

Indian.

Mind your place.

And, uh, as far as them
Pritcherts are concerned

I've been arrestin' them boys
since they were in grade school.

And they are
trouble, that's for sure

but they ain't got the brains

between the two of
'em to be dangerous.

And moreover,
that mysterious SUV

moved along some time yesterday.

- Oh.
- Yeah.

Oh.

Yeah.

Likely just run out of gas then?

Likely.

Oh.

Okay.

Say, sheriff, do you
have any objection to me

calling the registered owner?

You know, just to put
this whole thing to bed?

Uh, if it'll give you
some peace of mind, son

go right on ahead.

Right.

Eat this.

Uh-uh. Knock it off.

You lost blood.

You need to eat.

I need a hospital
and the police.

Eat.

Suit yourself.

What's your name?

I'm Sawyer.

- Sawyer Scott.
- Shut up and eat.

I go to Centre
College. I'm a senior.

I was on my way to DC
for a this big job interview

and my stupid GPS got me lost.

These two guys jumped me.

I'm sure my friends
are worried about me.

And my parents..

Quiet.

...and if you
could just untie me

and take me to the
police, you'd be a hero.

Shh.

I wouldn't even mention the..

This.

Might even be a reward.

Somebody help me!
Somebody help me!

If they find you
here they'll kill you.

Keep quiet, or I can't help you.

There he is.

Serious as ever. Hello, cuz.

Hollister. Buck.

What happened here?

Aw, just some
horseplay. You know.

Sorry we ain't been
up to visit more.

Things just been
kinda crazy lately.

- Okay.
- No, no, it ain't.

We're family. No
excuse. You know.

- So, how'd the last batch go?
- No problems.

And the yield was what
we thought it would be?

More or less.

So we should be on
target for S... Saturday?

Uh-huh.

I get low on sudo
and some other stuff.

We're all set with that.

We'll be back up tomorrow
with more sudo, ammonia,

matches, whatever.

I'm good on ammonia

but I'm gonna need more lye.

You burned through that
shit pretty fast, didn't you?

Well, hell. What Lowell
wants, Lowell gets.

Ask him about the girl, Holli.

Oh, yeah, about that.

Seems some girl went missing
up here a couple days ago

and Sheriff O'Doyle

he nearly crawled
up our ass about it.

I don't suppose
you seen anything?

I ain't seen no girl.

Okay. Do you mind if
we take a look around?

- Free country.
- Yeah. It is at that.

Nothin'.

What's eatin' you?

Tell me, cousin

how many times me
and Buck been up here

since we got
this trailer set up?

Dozen or so.

And every time we do, uh, I mean

hell, even Buck could tell you.

What's the first
thing that we do?

Go in and have a beer.

Right.

Right.

But today when we come up here

and you step outside to meet us

and stand there the whole time

in the middle of
the fucking rain

like you're some kinda
goddamn guard dog.

You got something to say?

I think I'm saying it.

We tracked that girl
up here yesterday.

Trail went cold not a
hundred yards away.

You found yourself
some fun, didn't you?

Didn't you, huh?

I had a accident
with the lye is all.

Place is full of fumes.

Lowell..

...it hurts my feelings
when you treat me

like I'm some kind
of goddamn idiot.

Now, how about we go on inside

and have a look.

She ain't in there.

Oh..

You shouldn't be here.

You're hurting me.

Better me than them.

Next time I tell you to stay put

you stay put!

- Suicide?
- Yeah.

So you think it's
just coincidence

that this Hispanic
fella from out of town

offed himself right when
we got Mexican drugs

flooding the state?

I... I couldn't say.

But in Fording County

suicide seems to
make a lot more sense

than some cartel gang thing.

Maybe. That doesn't
sound right to me.

So, we gonna
wait on the coroner.

Now also, Penny from
Dispatch wanted me to follow up

on an abandoned vehicle.

Oh! That wasn't nothin'.
Moved on the same day.

Oh, well, uh..

Well, you got something
to add, deputy?

Uh..

Go on, Katz.

That vehicle was registered
to a couple over in Paducah

but they gave it
to their daughter.

Now, she's over...

Why don't you
just get to the part

where you tell us the bad news.

The driver's name
is, uh, Sawyer Scott

and apparently nobody
seems to know where she is at.

She's missing?

Well, her roommates said
that she was going home

for Thanksgiving,
but her folks said

that she was staying on campus.

When was the last
time she was seen?

Monday morning.

Monday morning?

I... I just got off the
phone with the mother

and she said that the girl's
not answering her phone.

Look, that was before you
send out your storm troopers

start trampling out
people's flower beds

and kicking down their doors.

Let's just make sure she's not

passed out in Virginia
Beach somewhere.

Jesus Christ, O'Doyle

you think I enjoy
doing your job for you?

I'm not about to send my men
traipsing through the woods

on Thanksgiving
if I don't have to.

But you better get a
line on this girl soon

or you gonna have
state police choppers

blocking out the sun down here.

- Deputy.
- Sir.

- Sorry, sheriff...
- Save it.

We got a picture
of this missing girl?

Pretty clever how you
burned through them ropes.

- What is that stuff?
- Lye.

- Is that some kind of acid?
- Base.

Burns like acid.

Bases burn too.

And the milk,
that neutralized it?

Milk ain't acid enough
to neutralize lye.

You'd need something like..

...like vinegar
to neutralize lye.

So why don't you have
some vinegar handy?

You know what happens when
you mix an acid with a base?

Neutralizes it?

Yeah, with so much heat

it burn you worse
than the lye did.

Thought you were a college girl.

I'm not a chemistry major.

Well, that's why milk's better.

Less reaction.

Still burned quite
a bit, thank you.

Why do you know so
much about this stuff?

I've been cooking meth
since I was 14 years old.

You learn real quick
what all can burn you.

You know..

...if you let me go I
won't tell them anything.

You say you're trying to help
me, but you're holding me here.

Can't do it.

I promise I won't
tell anyone anything.

If you just let me go.

We're five miles
from the nearest road.

Twenty from any kind of town.

I got no car.

You wouldn't make it a 100
yards the shape you're in.

And even if you did,
the first person you met

would like as not hand
you right over to Hollister.

Bullshit.

- You just wanna keep me here.
- Quit it.

You can't keep me here forever!

I said quit it.

You wanna try your luck
out in them woods, go on.

Hollister and Buck are going
into Charleston this weekend.

They'll leave their truck
at their mama's house.

I'll go down on
Saturday and I'll borrow it.

And then I'll take
you someplace safe.

Out of Fording County.

I might need some help with
this one, heavy as a mother..

Jesus Christ! O'Doyle?

I got some plain
questions for you

and I want some plain answers.

- Is this about that car?
- Hell with the car.

Now, I got the state police
asking about a missing girl!

We did what you
told us, sheriff.

Son, if you'd done
what I told you

they would've
found that girl's body

somewhere down in
Jonesboro County by now.

I still don't know what the hell

you dimwits were thinking.

I told you, okay,
she come up on us

when we was
burying that bag of shit.

And we thought
she seen somethin'!

Well, she seen something now.

At this point, don't
it figure she already

out there in them
woods froze to death?

It don't matter if she's
out there dead in a gully

or singin' on Bandstand.

Without a body, these woods

is gonna be crawling
with state police.

Well, she ain't been found,
okay? So, she's likely dead.

The birds will be at her by
now. She'll be easier to spot.

We'll go out again tomorrow

after we run this
stuff up to Lowell.

How's your cousin doing?

Weird. Like, I don't
even know him.

What I meant was,
are we still on schedule?

Hell, you know that ol' boy
don't do nothin' but cook.

Big batch here, but
we'll be right by Saturday.

We'd better be.

Breakfast is peaches or bologna.

What are you doing?

Cuttin' matchbooks.

- What for?
- Cook meth.

I thought meth was
made from, like..

...ephedrine and Drano.

And matchbooks.

Why are you making meth?

Isn't everyone doing heroin now?

- I read.
- Can't cook heroin.

How many of them do you need?

Lots.

And what do you do when
you have them all cut up?

- Mix that shit in.
- What's that shit?

Why do you ask so
many damn questions?

Never mind.

Just thought I might
learn something.

So..

...you don't really
know what you're doing.

You're like one of those
European pop bands

that sing in English
but don't actually know

what any of the lyrics mean.

You sure ride high

for a girl who
jammed her wet hands

in a bucketful of lye yesterday.

I wasn't being
condescending. I'm just saying.

You know, it's amazing they got
you doing all this complex chemistry

and you don't even
have to understand it.

That ain't condescending?

So... I've been
thinking about your plan

to borrow your truck.

I just don't know I should
stay up here for that long.

I mean, it's okay
for a backup plan

but, you know, if you can
get me to a phone, then...

Bad idea.

If I'm here when those
guys come back...

It's safer to keep you here
than to try and move you.

I'm not really a
sit and wait type.

You don't say.

Listen, I just think I can come
up with a more proactive way to...

Hey, would you hand
me that pitcher right there?

- Why is it so cold?
- Just pour it in here.

Real slow.

It's cold 'cause the acetone
inside, it's evaporating..

...sucking away the energy
from what all it's touchin'.

Mix that with the matchbooks,
separate the red phosphorous.

Then I'm gonna
mix that with iodine

to get hydroiodic acid,
which I need to cook meth.

So you do all that for
just one ingredient?

That's the job.

Like a bunch of little
science projects?

Combine this ingredient,
separate that one.

Yeah, and just about every
one of them will kill you.

Every one of 'em
is either corrosive

flammable, both.

Methanol, acetone,
glycol, butane..

You thought that lye was tough.

We used to cook with this.

Anhydrous ammonia.

In here it's just a liquid

that'll burn your
skin right off.

Room temp, it
turns into poison gas.

One spark..

Hollister will be here soon.

- Oh, God.
- Lowell.

Low-ell.

Low-ell. Low-ell.

L-O-L.

L-O-L. Get it?

Hey, L-O-L!

Where you at?

- Hey.
- Just put that down there.

- Eh, what's cooking, Lowell?
- Try not to breathe.

- Shouldn't we get masks?
- But I just got the one.

- Best unload quick.
- Jesus Christ.

Thought you were gonna
wait around back of the trailer.

What if Hollister had
come down here?

Or Buck?

What if they'd come
behind the trailer?

Well, I could have
kept 'em from there.

You gotta learn to sit still.

So, that road I came
from is, is that way?

And that little
town is that way?

Yeah, that's Boone.

But the nearest road is Bishop

that way, to the east.

You fixing to
make a break for it?

Your call.

But if you're just restless,
I can put you to work.

I know, I know. I'm sorry.

I know what I said but..

Baby, this girl
is still out there

and her mama's been
callin', just worried sick.

We'll have plenty of
other Thanksgivings

but this girl won't if
we don't find her soon.

- Nick!
- Y... yes, sheriff?

What are you still doing
here? It's almost dinnertime.

Well, I... I was just..
It's okay, I'm just..

No, no, the hell it is!

It's your first
Thanksgiving together.

You go home have
dinner with your wife.

- But if I don't finish...
- That's an order, deputy.

I think I can muddle through
without you for an hour or two.

Bring me back a plate.

- Go! Go, go go!
- Okay. Okay.

Thank you, sheriff. Uh, babe,
sheriff's sending me home for dinner.

Just, uh, give me, give me 20.

You gotta speak up a bit.

Yeah, I'm getting in
my cruiser right now.

Whipped cream?

No, baby, no stores
are gonna be open

around here on Thanksgiving.

Well, who says you need
whipped cream with pumpkin pie?

No, I ain't driving all the..

Oh, wait. Hang on, babe.

I think I got some
cream in the office.

I said I think I got some c..

Jenna, my phone's about to die.

I'll be home soon.

I love you too.

..tired of excuses, Hollister.

You come up with that fucking
girl's body, alright, or so he..

Listen, this is my
goddamn retirement

and if you screw it up,
believe me, you will not live

long enough to regret it.

Hey, Nick.

Uh, look, I... I
can understand..

Just, you know, hearing
maybe half of that conversation

it could be misconstrued.

Right.

Come on, really?

Nick, look..

Well, let's just sit down
and talk about this.

I can hear you just fine
from over here, sheriff.

You're not even gonna
give me a chance to explain?

I mean, I..

Easy now.

You'll have your
chance to explain.

But right now I'm
walking out of here

and you're not stoppin' me.

It don't have to
be like this, Nick.

I'm sorry, sheriff.

But whatever you're into

you're gonna have
to answer for it.

Would you rather have
a room full of pennies

or a stack of pennies as tall
as the Empire State Building?

Never mind.

- I'd rather have the stack.
- What?

I'd rather have the
stack of pennies.

Real tall.

A stack isn't many.

The Empire State Building's
like a 100 stories high.

More than that
can fit in a closet.

If I had a stack of
pennies tall as that

it'd be the most incredible
thing you ever saw.

Right here, in the
middle of the Blue Ridge

pennies to the sky..

People'd come from miles.

Hey, what day is it?

Thursday.

Thanksgiving.

I guess you'd be
with your folks, huh?

Actually, I was
ditchin' them this year

for a stupid job interview.

I know.

And the worst part is I
didn't even tell them why.

I was too embarrassed
in case I didn't get the job.

All that scrambling around..

...all my plans.

What does is matter now?

My wife used to say

"Man plans, God laughs."

Yeah.

Sounds like something
my mom would say.

Always talking about God's plan.

Sure don't seem
like much of one.

Sure don't.

Bury him deep.

Don't just run him out
past that Sycamore Line

and kick some dirt
on him. You got it?

- What about the girl?
- You still got her wallet?

Mm-hm.

Alright, I got an idea
how to keep the staties

off our ass, for the
weekend at least.

But we still gotta find her.

Do not talk like that, okay?

Don't worry about it.

I'm gonna get to the
bottom of this, okay?

I'm sure that, uh, Nick is fine.

I'm sure there's a perfectly
reasonable explanation..

Hold on, I... I just, I'm in the
middle of something, alright?

Uh, Jenna, uh..

I'm gonna go right now
and take care of this.

I will call you soon as I know
somethin'. I promise. Okay.

Bye.

Jesus Christ

I do not have time
for your foolishness

this morning, Douglas.

My deputy is MIA.

His wife's been calling
me non-stop all night.

Between her and
Sawyer Scott's mother

I... I cannot go five minutes

without an
hysterical phone call.

- He been gone long?
- He, uh..

He left here yesterday afternoon

nobody's seen him since.
I mean, I... I'm concerned.

Well, good news is I'm
here to lighten your workload.

I'm taking over on
that missing girl.

Now, my team's heading up
here now to do a proper search

of those woods up by Rust Creek
all the way through to Blackridge.

Okay, well, it's no
secret I don't like that

but, uh, I guess
it's for the best.

Mm-hm.

Got my own missing
person to deal with now.

Okay, well, uh, you
just give me a minute

I'll head out with you,
I'll debrief your men,

and I'll catch 'em
up on what we know.

Look, that ain't gonna be
necessary. They got the report.

I got this girl's parents
comin' over from Paducah.

I... it's fine, it'll
just be a minute.

Just gonna check
Nick's locker here.

See if he took his civvies with
him or if he's still in uniform.

Really, O'Doyle, we
can handle it, alright?

I appreciate the offer.

Oh, what the hell..

Oh, man.

Well, I'll be goddamned.

Though we have not
yet determined the nature

of the relationship

we do believe that
Deputy Katz is involved

in Scott's disappearance.

His cruiser was found this
morning in Jonesboro County

so it's a good bet
he's fleeing the state.

So, we're going to
extend our search west

until we find this man.

Now what?

That's it.

In 20 minutes, you'll
be an official cook.

- That ain't so hard.
- Ah!

You think you can
sit still 20 minutes?

I don't know.

Well, I think I might be

starting to get used
to the quiet country life.

Inside.

Stay by the back door.

And if there's trouble... run.

Hey there, son.

- How's the cook?
- Fine.

Hm.

Well, I just thought I'd
come up here to check on ya.

And you done it.

That's close enough.

Wh..

What, you're giving
orders now, is that it?

I just don't like nobody
disturbing my cook's all.

Huh.

Well, let me tell you somethin'.

I got a lot invested
in this here.

And, uh, if I wanna go
inside and take a look

what y'all up to,
I'm gonna do that.

You ain't.

You forget who
you're talking to?

I'm the chief,
you're the Indian.

My kitchen..

...my rules.

You know, you ain't the
only cook around here.

So, why don't you just set
that gun down and make nice?

Don't kid yourself, boy.

I could put two in you
before you could even

get them barrels
up above your waist.

Lucky for me you're standing
next to a drum full of ether.

Too dangerous to keep inside.

One spark from, say, some
buckshot hitting the metal..

Hm.

Wow.

A Pritchert with some brains.

Lord help us all.

Alright, well..

You just mind you get
this cook done right.

Next time I come up here..

...I'll know where I stand.

Was that your boss?

He sounds like an asshole.

He's the worst kind
of snake there is.

Don't rattle before he bite.

- Doesn't look like much.
- It'll do.

How much more do we need?

Nine, ten more cooks.

That's gonna take all day.

Best get to it then.

But if you get asked,
just remember..

Escorting a prisoner
for interview. I got it.

Suspect.

Escorting a
suspect for interview.

Don't forget to shave.

And keep him in the back seat.

How come I gotta sit in back?

On account of when'd you ever
see someone that wasn't police

riding in the front
of a police car?

You ain't police.

That's why he's got the uniform.

Dangit!

Now just remember,
don't give them anything

until you get the money.

- I won't.
- You..

You count out all
that money, alright?

Don't get lazy and
let 'em short you.

Why don't you just
come do the thing yourself

if you're so damn
nervous then, huh?

'Cause that's
what I got you for.

So don't screw it up. Alright?

We got one chance to show
these boys we can compete

with them Mexicans.

Lowell cooks glass twice
as good as any Mexican.

Yeah, well that's the only
reason he ain't in the ground.

You know, he pulled a
shotgun on me today?

It's still burnin' me up.

Yeah, he's been
real touchy lately.

Don't even invite us
in for a drink no more.

Alright, well, let's do this.

Alright.

I'mma go inside and change.

I'mma go sit in the back.

Not very green.

Well, if you dump it on the
land, it stains the ground red.

Like having a big meth
lab sign in your front yard.

The creek washes it clear away.

By tomorrow, you'd
never know it was here.

So that's it, huh? All done?

Yeah.

I thought you'd be relieved.

I am.

So, once you got me out
of your hair, then what?

I've been thinking about
what your mama said.

And about how
cuttin' up matchbooks

is part of making meth.

You doing a lot of thinking.

I guess so.

I got this idea they're
kinda connected, you know?

I don't got it figured
out in my head yet, but..

...it's like..

Like, in our life,
everyone we meet

is a chemical reaction.

They change us
and we change them.

'Cause we changed, we
can go on and have different

reactions with other people.

And we don't always
know how it will end up.

We don't.

Like the matchbooks,
they don't know

how they're gonna end up.

But just 'cause we
can't see a plan..

...that don't mean
there ain't one.

Anyway, it made me feel
a little better about things..

...thinking it all fit
together somehow.

Cousin.

It's nice to see you too.

Hi, L-O-L.

Hey.. See, hey, hey!

Ain't you gonna say
nothin' about my duds, huh?

Nice duds.

We'll be back
tomorrow with your cut.

You're welcome.

So that's it?

All clear?

Well, we should probably
lay low for a little bit.

I'll go pick up the
truck around noon

and drop you off
with the state police.

What'll I tell them?

Tell 'em the truth.

I'll be cleared out
of here by dark.

You're leavin'?

It's time.

You can only sit still so long.

Besides, there's too many
ghosts in these woods.

I guess I can
give this back now.

Keep it.

A conversation
piece, for all the friends

you're gonna make in DC.

Yeah, I'm not so sure
that they're gonna..

You old dog.

This explains everything!

Well, you could've just told me.

- He didn't want to share.
- And he shouldn't have to.

So what if we seen her first?

That don't mean nothin' to me

when it comes to Cousin
Lowell's happiness.

N... now, now, now you just,
you just hold on there, Lowell.

You proven to be pretty
untrustworthy lately

and I don't think we
can leave it up to you

to do the right thing here.

So this little lady..

...is just gonna have
to come with us now.

Take a seat, Holli.

We ain't got time to be havin'
this conversation, Lowell.

Make time.

Won't take long.

Sawyer, honey..

...you mind heating me
up a cup of that coffee?

It's okay.

Just fetch the coffee.

I swear I should've known.

We been all through
these goddamn woods.

Here's the thing..

...I know what has to get done.

And I'll take care of it..

...in my time.

But for now..

...would you just let
me have some fun?

I mean, you see how
trained I got her, don't you?

That's it, baby.

Now, get over here
and sit on my knee.

Goddamn!

You sure do got some things

to teach me, boy.

And the thing is,
if it was up to me...

- Holli?
- H... hang on, Buck.

I think there's
something wrong...

Hang on a second,
the thing is though

it ain't just up to me..

But, Holli, the microwave..

Come on!

Please!

I can't.

You remember Bishop's Road?

I can't..

You're gonna be okay.

Run!

Easy now.

Don't do nothin' stupid.

Yous about all the
stupid this family needs.

Why'd you go and do all this?

For some girl?

What does it matter?

It's done.

Sheriff.

Jesus! That fucking Lowell.

She was here the
whole goddamn time.

- Is the meth..
- The cruiser, down the way.

Thank God.

That girl run off, O'Doyle.

Through them woods

headed toward Bishop's Road.

I'mma go after her.

- You circle around the road.
- Okay.

And I'll flush her out to you.

Yeah, yeah, that's, uh..

...good thinkin' there.

Don't forget your gun there.

Right.

Fuck!

Go on, pick it up.

Come on, boy.

O'Doyle..

Ah..

You can't.

We're partners.

Go ahead.

I won't.

I won't, I won't do it.

You can't shoot
me if I ain't armed.

You think I'm concerned
with the forensics

on a known felon shot
outside a burning meth house?

Son, I just wanted you to feel
like you had a fighting chance.

You didn't.

So you're saying..

...this Lowell Pritchert guy..

...was holding you?

No, not holding me. Hiding me.

Oh, okay, from, uh,
from these other fellas

that was after you.

Why aren't you calling this in?

He could still be alive.

Hold on now there, miss.

No sense in callin' anything in

until I get all the facts.

So these other fellas, uh..

...was it just the two of them?

Hmm.

Buck and Hollister.

They all work for somebody
else but I never saw him.

Shouldn't you at least
call an ambulance

or back-up or somethin'?

Well, now, here's the deal

you're just gonna have to
trust my way of doin' things

'cause around here..

Well, I'm the chief..

...you're the Indian.

So, this third guy,
you never saw him?

Did you get a name?

No.

A voice?

- Um, what?
- A voice?

Did you hear him? What
his voice sound like?

Oh..

I don't know, just..

...just normal, just
a normal voice.

Hmm. So you wouldn't recognize
him if you heard him again.

No.

I definitely wouldn't know.

I think we're gonna
walk the rest of the way.

Come on now.

Just go on down a
little further there..

...down by the water.

They call this Rust Creek..

...because of all the
clay deposits up the hill.

Turned the water red.

And they mined up all
the clay before I was born.

That name stuck though.

Let's go on now.

Okay.

Okay.

You don't have to do this.

Hm.

In the water.
