- [Reporter] Wisconsin DNR provided an update

on chronic wasting disease in deer across the state.

Chronic wasting disease, or CWD,

is a neurological disorder found in white-tailed deer.

Clinical signs of-

(meat plopping drowns out reporter)

No fear of humans, teeth grinding,

notable weakness,

drooping of head and ears, excessive thirst,

difficulty swallowing,

rough, dull coat,

walking in set patterns, nervousness,

loss of coordination,

excessive salivation,

diminished tone of facial muscles,

excessive urination,

severe emaciation and dehydration,

and inability to stand.

CWD is easily spread from animal to animal and is deadly.

Experts are still studying the impact

of the disease on humans,

but they haven't ruled out the spread from animal-

(Paul's breathing and chewing drowns out reporter)

Waushara County saw our first case

of the rapidly spreading illness.

Hunters are reminded to keep their deer tags visible

and to register deer after they've been harvested.

Experts say you should always get your deer tested

for CWD to keep those numbers down

and to avoid potential spread from ingestion of venison.

Wisconsin DNR reminds hunters

to test for chronic wasting disease.

- [Evan] I'm begging you to not leave this weekend.

I got a sweet gig lined up at Uncle Bibs.

You know the one down in Milwaukee

with the giant tongue behind the bar?

Yeah. That guy said he'd pay us 500 bucks each.

- [Charlie] I already made the plans, Evan.

- [Evan] I never ask you for anything.

- [Charlie] A rent check every month.

- [Evan] Yeah, well, pretty soon you're gonna be paying

that rent in full.

I ain't gotta be affording shit.

- [Charlie] Okay, get a real job.

- [Evan] Says you, generational parasite.

I mean, come on though.

We got a good thing going

and you're gonna throw it all away for what?

Some townie chick?

- [Charlie] She's talented, dude.

- She served you drinks at the ski shack.

- Yeah, and, you know, one of the best weekends

I've had in a very long time.

- Mm.

So it's worse then.

You're gonna ruin our partnership for a good fuck.

- Men have done worse for good sex.

And it's not just that though, her vocals are insane.

She wants to record an album.

- Hm.

Is she from there?

- [Charlie] Yeah. Why?

- I'd be careful with that, man.

My cousin Bobby linked up with a girl from the Northwoods.

He has six kids now.

Six, said his mother-in-law

practically held him down and forced him to-

- Dude, I'm not gonna marry the chick.

- Well, I hope not.

But can you just hear me out?

- No, I'm not debating you on this anymore.

I gotta go.

- You leave and it's over.

- You need me, bro.

I'll be back Sunday.

Please water the plants.

Thank you.

(crickets chirping)

- You'd think with all the girls there are that-

- Yeah, I know, but this one's got to be different.

She's got to be little, and cute,

and sweet, intelligent.

- Anything else I can get for you?

Food? Shot?

- You wanna pour me a free shot?

- Nobody else in here.

- Hey!

(door thumps shut)

You're pouring out free shots, Mike?

- Whatcha doing here, Paul?

- What do you mean "What am I doing here"?

- Hey, I can't keep serving you free drinks.

You're gonna get me fired.

- I'm not looking for free drinks.

- [Mike] What are you doing here then?

- I need a job.

- I'm not gonna hire you.

- Come on, Mike.

You got yourself working every shift for the last six weeks,

and you got a runaway bride seating customers most nights,

and it's slower than an old person on the freeway in here.

I'd bring you some customers, huh?

Hey, load the gun.

Fire away.

I'm right here.

- [Mike] We don't hire felons.

- Ah, come on.

Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike.

That was almost five years ago.

I should be able to serve some drinks.

- I'm sorry. It's company policy.

- Don't fuck with me. I'm starving.

A guy can only eat venison so many times.

- Venison?

Paulie, we talked about this shit.

You can't be eating that.

Deer at your spot ain't good.

- Says you.

What am I supposed to eat?

- You know Big Eddie?

Guy with the sweet ice shanty over on Irogami?

- Yeah.

- Dude shot himself last week.

- So.

- So he was eating venison

from some deer he killed over in Plainfield.

Guy went fucking nuts.

- Okay, so what the fuck do you want me to do, Mike?

- Sell your land.

- Can I get my check?

I ain't leaving 'cause you're here.

I ain't scared of you.

(gentle music emanating from TV)

(gentle music continues emanating from TV)

(boot heels thumping slowly)

- If you ain't scared,

why don't you come over to my place

and drink the liquid from glow sticks?

It could be like old times.

- [Mike] Leave her alone, Paul.

- Offer stands.

But seriously though, how do you know that guy?

- Uh, went to my high school.

- Oh.

(glass shatters)

Well, um, Evan gave me an ultimatum.

He said if I came here, he's dissolving the band.

- And you came anyway?

- Last year?

Five, maybe 10 grand tops.

- [Welfare Operator] Yes, I see you turned in

your tax return as well.

- Yep, a couple weeks ago, like I said.

- [Welfare Operator] What are your monthly expenses?

- I, uh, I ran out of a small inheritance

around the start of the year and I,

I got into some trouble some years back.

So finding work has been...

- [Welfare Operator] So you haven't bought anything

in the last month?

- Gas. Water maybe.

But most of that I stocked up on a while ago.

I, I don't got running water at home.

I am really on my last leg here, lady.

- [Welfare Operator] We'll review your application

and give you a call when there's a decision.

- And how long will that be?

- [Welfare Operator] Normal lead time

is around one to two weeks.

- One to two weeks? No!

No, I need the card now.

I, I haven't eaten.

I, I haven't eaten real food in three days.

- [Welfare Operator] I'm sorry, sir.

That's just not how this works.

- Well, now I have to steal groceries!

Is that what you want? - No, sir. I-

- No. Well, that's what you're gonna get!

Hi.

- I was hoping to talk to Miriam.

- Y'all didn't do enough talking last night?

- Well, I'm afraid I offended her or something.

I wanted to apologize, first off.

- Okay.

Uh.

That's very nice of you.

But, uh, unfortunately, you picked the wrong time right now.

Um, Miriam's taking a nap.

- That is unfortunate.

- Uh, hey, how do you know Miriam?

- Oh, everyone in the county knows Miriam Fadin.

- I didn't realize she was so famous.

- What do you want, Paul?

- I need a favor.

Hoping I could talk alone.

I don't wanna scare your friend.

- It's fine.

It's fine.

(tense music)

What do you want?

- [Paul] Can you put in a good word with Mike?

- [Miriam] Why would I do that?

- I'm starving, Miriam.

Your word would go a long way.

- Can't do it.

- Please. I'm begging you.

- Call Quest Card. - I did.

My application doesn't get processed for another week.

(Miriam breathing shallowly)

- What the fuck was that?

Did you tell him where I live, Miriam?

Miriam?

- Paul killed my dad!

- He what?

- It was an accident.

They were working the same line.

- Oh.

Oh my gosh, Miriam, I, uh.

I, I'm sorry.

I didn't, um...

But when did that happen?

- Five years ago.

I'm sorry. You shouldn't have to deal with this shit.

- Miriam, where are you going?

- [Miriam] On a walk.

Don't follow me.

- 19-year-old Paul Pilcrow, a machine operator,

was charged yesterday with manslaughter

for killing the father of former County Queen Miriam Fadin.

Mr. Dane Fadin, a maintenance manager

at LockingGrip Incorporated,

was performing routine repairs

on a large floor-standing drill press

when the machine suddenly turned on

puncturing his skull and killing him.

Ms. Fadin, also an employee

of LockingGrip Incorporated at the time,

immediately called for help.

She was too late.

Mr. Fadin was already dead.

Investigators say Mr. Pilcrow did not follow

lockout/tagout procedures for the machine.

- Hello?

- [Charlie] Dude, you're never gonna believe this.

- You met her parents already.

- [Charlie] No.

- You want me to be the best man?

- Dude, stop. It's weirder than that.

Her dad died in a factory accident and she found him.

- Just now?

- No, like five years ago.

This guy, Paul Pilcrow, he did it.

And now he's coming around asking Miriam to help him,

like, get a job or something.

- That is some backwoods townie shit.

You gotta get the fuck outta there.

- No, dude.

Well, no, it's not like that.

He didn't do it on purpose.

- What did I tell you?

It's weird up there, bro.

Nothing good happens north of Madison.

- Okay, dude, that's really xenophobic.

- You think they like us?

You don't need to get involved with that shit.

They're gonna turn you into furniture.

It's not too late to come back for the show.

- Dude, I'm not coming back.

- Do I need to come get you?

- I don't even know why I called you.

- Because you love me.

- Goodbye, Evan.

- [Evan] Bye, Charlie.

(gentle music)

(birds chirping)

- Mom, I can't just hang out with you all the time.

It's exhausting.

- [Mom] You said you were only staying one night.

- I said I was staying the weekend.

- [Mom] You told me one night.

- No, I told you the weekend.

- [Mom] Well, we're out of groceries

and I can't drive anymore in my condition.

- You think I don't know that?

You think I don't know you have fucking Huntington's, Mom?

We literally talk about it every day.

I'm literally feeding you meals.

- [Mom] I never wanted it to be this way.

I just need some groceries in the house.

- I will get you groceries on Sunday.

You have enough.

- [Mom] I really don't. I don't.

We don't have anything I can eat on my own.

- [Miriam] I really don't care.

- [Mom] You don't care?

- God, I fucking hate this place.

- [Mom] You're lucky we can afford to live anywhere

after the accident.

- No thanks to you.

Paul's out of prison, by the way.

He came to Charlie's house.

I'll come home.

- [Mom] You don't have to stay.

- It's fine. I'll just come home.

- [Mom] All right, I'll see you in a bit.

- Bye.

and make something of myself?

What do you do that's so much better?

Just because you're satisfied to sit here all your life

you think you can laugh at me?

Well, someday you won't laugh at me.

I'm going out and have a real life!

I'm gonna be somebody!

I'd say give her a good dose of sulfur and molasses.

Can we talk about this?

- It's not up for debate.

- Please?

You sounded good today.

Like,

really good.

(clothing shuffling)

I'm sorry about your dad.

- You don't have to be sorry.

He was a dick.

- But if you want to-

- Do you think any of the lyrics need any work?

Please don't.

I, I, I know it's terrible to come back here,

but I, I don't got nowhere else to turn.

I, I haven't had a decent meal in...

Look, I, uh, I found this ring on the side of the road.

And I don't know whose it is,

I don't know where it's from,

but I, I wanna sell it.

They'll ask too many questions at the jeweler,

and I ain't looking for trouble.

I know you have money.

Would you buy it off me for like 300?

It's gotta be worth at least a thousand.

- So you really haven't eaten anything?

- The bag of chips Miriam gave me and a little venison.

But when my deer went bad.

You see, I, I don't have a fridge.

Um,

I, I, I don't live here all the time.

It's my parents' place.

But, so like, I can't pay,

I, I can't keep you anything permanent.

But, I mean, I could pay you something to chop my wood

if that would be okay.

- Like split logs? - Yeah.

- Sure. Yeah, yeah.

I can do that. - Cool.

The axe and the logs are out back.

I'll bring you some water.

I used to love coming here as a kid.

I loved the freedom.

Being away from the city.

I mean, how can there be any problems by the lake?

Getting lost in nature.

I, I, I know that's not the case now.

Hey.

Thanks for the help.

It's 500.

- I only asked for...

Thank you.

- Where are you living these days, Paul?

- I got some land up in Plainfield,

just a mile west of Taterland Farm there.

- Yeah. How's that?

- No running water

and the shitter's been full since October.

- How many tours?

- Tours?

- You were in Afghanistan?

- Oh.

Yeah.

I don't like talking about my time in the service.

You think I can get another one of those?

- Yeah.

- Hey, uh, well, this is gonna sound weird,

but do you wanna come in and shower?

(birds chirping)

(shower water pattering)

- [Miriam] Sorry for acting mean earlier.

- [Charlie] I'm used to it. It happens.

- This place...

Does it give you inspiration?

- Yeah!

(both chuckling)

You're the one with the notebook.

- Uh, you're the one with the accolades.

- No, I wrote, like, four good songs.

- Four more than me.

- So,

you're really sure that you don't wanna sleep with me?

- Uh, only if we finish an album.

Even then,

still a maybe. (chuckles)

(tense brooding music)

Um, do your parents know you're here?

- Paul's gonna be done soon.

- Just answer the question.

- You want the truth?

- Always.

- This place is too small for them.

- Too small?

- Yeah. That's my hunch.

Probably outgrew it.

(Miriam laughs)

- You're serious?

- Yeah.

- Uh, I couldn't even tell you the last time

we were here together.

- Wow.

(tense brooding music)

(phone buzzing)

Uh, I gotta take this.

- Who is it? - Just a sec.

Yo.

What? No, dude, you're not coming here.

No, not tomorrow either.

(fire crackling)

- Thanks again for the shower.

And the beer.

- Your productivity today was unmatched.

- You could've rented a splitter.

- Eh. Where's the fun in that?

(fire crackling)

- To new beginnings.

(fire crackling)

(Miriam sighs)

(cans tapping)

(fire crackling)

(fire continues crackling)

- Do you still live on a farm?

- Not anymore.

State took over and planted trees.

Imminent domain.

- Eminent domain?

- Yeah. That.

Fuckers.

- Why'd they take it?

- Reforestation, they said.

A bunch of bullshit.

The state don't like my family.

(fire crackling)

My great-granddad didn't pay his taxes.

- Mm.

(fire crackling)

- So you guys play music?

I, uh, saw your equipment over there.

- Oh, yeah, um, just messing around a little.

Uh, we actually came out with a single yesterday.

- [Paul] Can I hear it?

- Yeah. It's on Apple Music, Spotify, wherever.

(fire crackling)

Or we could play it live.

- I'd love to.

- Right now?

- [Paul] Why not?

- We don't have to.

- It's fine.

- Okay.

Uh, I'll go get my guitar.

(fire crackling)

(fire crackling) (soft tense music)

(Miriam breathes deeply)

- Why'd you do it?

- Do what?

- Why did you watch him die?

- I, I thought that's what you wanted.

- Why would I want that?

- You were talking about how much you hated him.

You, you say he stole your dignity,

your childhood, everything.

You said you wanted him to die.

Said you wouldn't mind if someone let him die.

Remember?

You told me at lunch that one day.

I remember.

You were, you were having a salad.

You never ate like the other guys.

Suppose you wanted to get out.

(fire crackling) (gentle solemn music)

(fire crackling) (gentle solemn music)

(Paul coughs)

- (sniffling) Where you going?

Don't have anywhere good to go.

Sit down.

(suspenseful music)

- You had the keys.

(Miriam scoffs)

I know you unlocked it.

- I didn't. - Then who did, Miriam?

It sure as fuck weren't me!

I, I wasn't even in the area when Donny got to the setup.

I locked that press.

I locked that press every fucking time!

That press was my living.

That press...

(gentle tense music)

- Probably forgot then.

- No, I gave you the fucking keys!

(gentle tense music)

You know, they never found them keys.

(tense music)

I know you did it.

But, you know, I liked you good enough.

I did my time.

I didn't deserve it,

but I fucking did it.

(tense music)

(Miriam sniffles)

(fire crackling)

- Sorry.

It was upstairs.

You going somewhere?

- Oh, just stretching the legs.

- I was gonna say, you gotta stay put, my guy.

You're getting a free show.

Playing live.

Ready?

(exhales) Okay.

(fire crackling)

Oh gosh. - I'm uh...

It's fine. Thanks.

- Yeah. - God.

- Well, uh, I should get going.

- You don't have to go.

Oh, you could spend the night.

- I, I... There's no point

and no sense in driving 30 minutes in the dark.

- I couldn't. You guys have done too much.

- Please. I insist.

- [Paul] I don't wanna intrude.

- [Charlie] It's totally fine.

- Let him go if he wants to.

- Okay.

It's really no problem.

(fire crackling)

- You guys are giving me a reason to live.

(fire crackling)

I'll stay.

- What are you doing?

- Making coffee?

- No. What are you doing here?

- What do you mean?

- [Miriam] Charlie doesn't want you here anymore?

- He asked me to stay over.

- Not for coffee.

(water boiling)

He's too nice to say it to your face,

but he doesn't want you here.

He paid you $500 to not burglarize his place,

but I saw you steal a bottle of booze last night.

He's gonna call the police

if you're still here when he's up.

(Paul scoffs)

- That's too many grounds.

- You have no idea what I've been up to.

You, you would've never met Charlie if it weren't for me.

Huh?

You would've been rotting in a fucking prison cell.

But I took the hit.

Me!

And you just,

you just treat me like dirt.

- You are dirt!

(coffee pot shatters)

(tense music)

(water boiling)

(door thuds shut)

- Miriam?

Oh, what happened?

Where's Paul?

- Just left.

- Did he do this?

(faucet whooshing)

- He was outside my door last night.

- Uh, what?

Okay.

You could sleep with me if you'd like.

- You can't invite him back.

- Miriam, he's, he's got no running water.

- Charlie, don't ask him back, he,

he licked my blood.

- He what?

- Yeah, after I fell, he...

- Okay, well, he was probably drunk.

- Why are you making excuses for him?

- No good deed goes unpunished.

- [Miriam] What?

- No good deed goes unpunished.

I'm trying to do something nice for the guy.

- He killed my fucking dad.

- He's still a veteran.

- How do you even know that?

- He, he wears the hat.

What? Do you want me to go ask him for his papers?

- He's not a veteran. He just wears the hat.

- How do you know? - I grew up with Paul.

He's a chronic liar!

- Well, how am I supposed to know that?

- I don't even know what the fuck I'm even doing here.

- Wait, we're making music.

- You're not.

You're being charitable to a felon.

- Okay. Okay.

You wanna make music? Let's go make music.

Oh, holy shit.

Holy fucking shit.

- What?

- Maggie Rogers shared our song on Instagram.

- You're lying.

- No, I'm not kidding.

My manager emailed me.

She wants to meet you.

Maggie.

- Are, are you serious?

- Yeah. Come look.

(bodies shifting on furniture)

- Oh my god.

Oh my god! Ah! (kisses smacking)

It's happening.

- Yeah.

(rifle cocks)

(rifle blasts)

- Charlie?

- [Charlie] Yeah?

- [Miriam] I'm going for a run.

(suspenseful music)

- What?

- I have to.

Too excited to sit in the car that long.

- Okay, uh, I'll finish packing and I'll just wait for you.

- I'll be quick. - Okay.

(truck engine humming)

(alcohol sloshes)

(Paul coughing)

- I'll be a shit-covered dick.

Fuck.

(Miriam catching breath)

- No, thanks.

(alcohol sloshes)

- Hop in.

I'll take you back.

- Go home, Paul.

- (laughs) Not, not yet.

I gotta see if Charlie's got more jobs for me.

- He doesn't.

(Paul laughs)

(truck engine rumbling)

(tense music)

- Who, who are you texting?

- Charlie.

- Do you mind?

We're having a conversation.

- I'm asking if he has anything for you to do.

(phone buzzes) (shower water pattering)

- Come on, I'll take you back.

- I'm gonna finish my run.

- No, no.

I'll drive you.

Hop in.

- I'm good.
