Original subtitles

Woo-hoo!

Sir, this is a private course. No, no. What the? Is that me? Tell him you're my

friend. Yeah.

You are dedicated. We're friends.

As long as the moon shall rise.

As long as the river flows.

As long as the sun will shine

As long as

the grass shall grow

What?

Is that gin not taste?

It's diaper cream and WD-40.

Ooh la la.

I ever told you about this truck?

You have.

First of all, it was my daddy's.

This is where it broke down in 84.

Why was he driving in the middle of the field?

He died of a heart attack after that.

I never moved it.

Put it on blocks when the tires went bad.

Mm-hmm.

I'm making daddy's chili for the cook-off this year.

Judge, I've got things I've got to get to back at the office, so if we could

just... What's Bob planning on cooking?

Well, you know, I don't know, so... I'd really like to know what Bob's cooking.

I've got to know my competition.

See, I'm angry with you, but small talk soothes

me, fella.

Don't you want to soothe me?

I think he's making a chili con carne thing this year. Well, it's in his

blood.

He got the recipe off the internet.

But he always puts in his little special ingredients.

Which are?

Between us.

Couple spoonfuls of tang.

I love that.

See, that's inventive.

Bob is an inventive son of a gun.

Don't I know it. Was it his bright idea to arrest the governor's journalist

friend?

Well, I did not know that he was friends with the governor. So it was you.

Lee Raybone is an unstable gentleman.

He accosted me. Started yelling about Nathan Spence and scaring all the show

lambs. Hell, he nearly shat his pants right near the patty toss.

He's not well.

I did not think that Donald Washburn would be friends with someone like that.

You didn't think at all, Bella.

Never do.

Luckily, I took care of it.

Got the writer eating out of my hand.

Cleaned up your mess.

You're welcome.

Jed, all I do is clean up messes. Then why is that journalist poking around

now? A junkie dying in county isn't enough of a story. So what else aren't

you and Bob and your dumbass cousin telling me?

Something funny?

Oh, Jed.

You know, you bring me out here to your daddy's dusty-ass truck, and you talk to

me like you're my daddy.

Or my softball coach.

But you need to remember something.

It's me and my boys keeping that farm working.

We do all the work while you're sitting pretty on that bench collecting all this

money. I know how much cash is coming in.

And our piece of the pie is looking mighty slim.

Now you want me to thank you?

Oh, God. Hey, hey, first off, there's... Oh, don't slam

Daddy's door.

Yeah, that's really good. Marty, Marty, somebody's got to like this story.

This is Pulitzer Prize winning material. And I think my friend, Marty Bruner,

should get the scoop.

So this is the gift? Yeah.

Me doing more of your work again? No, no, I can't do it because of her.

All right?

Thanks. Thanks.

Because of my good friend, Ginger.

The lawyer?

Yes.

The escaped convict is the heart of the story. All right? And if I expose that,

I expose her. And I don't want to do that. I mean, I can't do that because I

promised her I won't. All right? But I can't just sit on this story. All right?

There are lives at stake.

Well, that's a pickle.

No. This is not a pickle. You remember what you said to me.

About Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder and that terrible song.

Ebony and Ivory? Yes, you said... Are you comparing me to Stevie Wonder? You

can be Paul McCartney if you want. Even if I write this thing, Lee. Which I'm

not going to. Okay.

She'd still be exposed.

We're causing all that noise!

Swing that hammer and drive that steel.

I've got to make the money for another meal.

And lift that tie from the plain sand.

The work is the lot of a poor man.

Hey, you break it, you buy it, sweetheart.

When the poor man works.

he won't enslave the poor man go to an early grave a boss man he don't give a

hand

Fuck. You left the fucking keys out again.

That ain't gonna work.

There you go.

Go get him. Little dude ball.

Come on.

Give any thought to colleges?

Yeah.

That's all anyone ever talks about.

Well yeah, people want you to live out their dreams.

You saying I shouldn't go to college?

No, I'm saying if you don't want to, don't.

But the fact of the matter is, you've got to figure it out for yourself.

In case your mom or your dad figure it out, or some old man like me.

You.

You know, I think you're a good man.

A good man is not what I am often accused of being.

Then they don't know you.

People are many different things to different people.

There's some people I have hurt.

Yeah, but I think Dad was wrong.

He's right to him.

And I have hurt your dad.

That much is true.

Yeah, Dad and I clash a lot.

That's because you're alike.

Me and him were the same way You're a ray bone through and through and days of

old now when the Scots went to war Wait, you mean like in Scotland? Yeah

Scotland. Well when we went into battle We play the bagpipes

Just sounds scary sounds like a gutshot jackrabbit, but not to

us Scots

Bagpipe music was not meant to scare the enemy. It was meant to inspire the

Scots.

You go into a situation with anger, that's only going to make

you small in the feeling.

You need to march into battle with light in your eyes, understanding in your

heart.

Then you might be getting someplace.

People might listen to you.

People might hear you.

Bagpipes.

Yeah, bagpipes.

Lee fucking Raybon.

This motherfucker is blowing up your phone and you don't have Miko's number

even saved.

What's that about?

Look at me. This is a big misunderstanding.

Yes, I worked on Miko's case, but I am a busy woman. Do you know how many cases I

work on in a month? Clients come and go. I have no idea how to reach most of

them. Miko.

Could be anywhere.

You know that me and Miko were acquainted.

As good friends as a guard and a prisoner could be.

You think I don't know about you?

Oh, no,

you thought he kept that to himself?

You thought you could fuck a prisoner and he would just keep your secrets?

Miko showed me every text, every dirty line.

He said that you just needed him so bad because you were so lonely.

It was just you and your cat.

God, what's his name?

Atticus?

Well,

it looks like you may have confiscated a phone, so...

Good job, I guess but You and he were not friends you're not

a person people trust I mean I can tell that you don't have any friends.

I mean I this is not a place that women come In any form

Calm down calm down that was really good though. I

was so close

All right, I'm gonna go calm down

Thank

you

for that

I get it.

We all have shitty bosses.

That's not my boss.

You're not the boss.

How'd it go with Judge Jed?

About how you'd expect.

Not a big talk.

What does he know?

Nothing.

Who's at the top?

By the way.

What?

If this thing goes all the way to the top, who's pulling the strings?

Look, I don't know who the boss is, but it's not him.

Does he know that?

We talk a lot.

I don't know exactly, but I know how to find out.

Follow the money.

Bingo. I hope he was at least polite.

He was kind of being an asshole, honestly.

Did he fucking threaten you?

Oh, Danny, come on.

Men like him, that's how they are.

We gotta just stay focused on us and the task at hand, right?

You're right.

Your boyfriend is a fucking fugitive. So, why don't you just call him up

like you do every night and this whole thing will be over with.

First of all, not my boyfriend.

And you think this whole thing will be over with?

How'd it go with the mom?

It went pretty quick. It was, uh, nice and clean.

Mm-hmm.

Anyone see you?

Nobody.

Lonnie, who do you think takes the fall for shit like this, huh? Trust me, it's

not the boss, and it's not the boss's cousin. Trust you.

You shot me in the fucking neck.

Trust you?

Yes. Okay. I am sorry I shot you in the neck. I shot you in the neck because I

thought that you were trying to break into my fucking house.

What would you do in that situation?

Huh? Give the guy flowers and a back rub or a shot in the neck? I bet a shot in

the neck.

Yeah.

Do you hear back from my cousin?

Yeah.

I got it all taken care of. What do you think McMahon is going to give you at

the end of this?

Hmm?

He already killed a guard out here.

But you knew that.

He will do the same to us.

He will take us out. Me first, and then you, Lonnie.

He'll fucking bury us in the woods.

What?

Lonnie! You little bitch!

Fuck! Oh, shit.

Go. Do not have the fucking keys, Lonnie. Did you find the correct keys? I

know, I know how to call her. Fuck, I'm killing you.

Lonnie, show me.

Holy shit,

oh my god. Holy shit. I thought I was reversing

Holy shit. Oh my god.

Fuck.

He's good. Yeah, I think just, just, just.

He's trying to kill us, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's breathing.

Yeah, great, great, great. I'm gonna reverse.

Fuck that guy.

You know, Mac and Bob, they're always giving me a hard time, and Bella doesn't

do anything about it either. You know, if she wasn't there, I'd beat their

fucking asses.

Like, the other day, he told me that my mouth looked like a tiny

sideways vagina.

And he started calling me.

Puss mouth.

I mean, he was laughing so fucking hard he gave himself a nosebleed. And you

know what? It's like, even if I do have a quote-unquote puss mouth, you don't

leave me out of the planning. I'm a smart guy.

You know, I'm smarter than Matt.

I don't know. I just wish we could have avoided all this. Why would they need

prisoners from Boontill?

What?

Why would McMahon need to transport prisoners from Boontill to...

fresh start in woodrell if they already had plenty of workers at the county jail

oh those uh those boom hill boys those aren't those aren't workers honey those

are enforcers enforcers yeah how do you how do you train a dog that's

misbehaved you go out and you get a bigger and meaner dog and and those boom

hill boys are the biggest and meanest there are you know it's it's a

requirement at fresh start to be down on the workers

Hey, look, if you have any more questions, just, I don't know, let me

know. I'll answer them. Yeah?

You're welcome, by the way.

For kidnapping me?

No.

For hitting Mac with the car.

The other kidnapper?

Yeah.

And bravely saving your life.

No, listen, I understand attorney-client privilege.

That's not the thing. The thing is, I need to know who owns Fresh Start

Industries, all right?

That's all. It's a simple question, and it's a matter of life and death, okay?

Hello?

Fuck!

Dan, why couldn't you narrow down this list of lawyers? I mean, who has this

many lawyers?

Don't you have, like, five lawyers?

No, I just have Damon, and he's on retainer, all right? I don't pay Dan.

Isn't that your lawyer girlfriend?

Okay.

Are you okay?

Oh, nice. Yeah.

What happened?

I'm fine. I'm fine.

Yeah. No. You know what? I'm actually fine.

I'm good, I think. Yeah. So what happened?

The...

Oh, so they just wanted me to call Miko. But I'm like, I actually can't get a

hold of Miko. I don't know where Miko is. I don't know Miko at all. But

foremost, the smell of that place. It's like hot dog water.

Which place?

Spam. It's not Spam, exactly. What place?

McMahon's house.

You went to McMahon's house? McMahon's home. How did that happen? It's

beautiful. I was brought there. Did he force you?

No, no, no, I wasn't forced. I just didn't want to go, and they put me in

the car against my will.

Let me see. Are you hurt?

Lonnie hit McMahon with his car, but he didn't die, so that's good. I'm a little

hurt. Well, I did that, but that part hurts a little bit.

All right, listen, I have the first aid kit in the bathroom.

Oh, you know what this is? Is it used floss?

Is that a smell? Is used floss even a smell? It's not a good smell. All right,

listen, just have a seat. All right, I'm going to get you some water.

What's that?

Oh. It's me.

Uh, why am I... Why am I...

on your red string murder-she-wrote wall.

It's not a murder-she-wrote. It's just, you know, I'm a visual thinker, you

know, and I'm just trying to make sense out of everything. It's like, it's all

just pieces of a puzzle, and I'm trying to make the puzzle fit. No, you're not a

puzzle piece, but it's just...

Didn't we say we would keep each other's secrets? Yeah, and I am keeping your

secrets, all right, but I'm not keeping McMahon's secrets or Fresh Start's or

the Sheriff's Department's secrets, all right? I'm just trying to step back, all

right? People have been killed, all right? You're not trying to step back

and figure it out? I think that you have a relationship with Miko, okay? You do,

and that obscures your objectivity. It does.

Okay, no, and so I'm just trying to take a step back. Yeah, Miko killed that kid.

McMahon would handpick guys to be enforcers, I guess.

Just people to beat the shit out of workers and keep them in line. And by

the way, McMahon and Nico, very close friends.

Really? I guess, yeah.

Okay, that's serious. Well, he did know my cat's name.

Hey, you cannot believe a word out of a man's mouth. You don't know why he's

saying what he's saying. You don't know what... I don't know anything.

I don't know anything.

I don't know who Miko is, and I never did, I think.

Yeah, so I really don't know anything. God, I really thought I did, and I just

didn't know where else to go, you know? I don't know why I'm here. Because I'm

your friend. I couldn't go home, right? Like, where do you go when you get... Of

course not.

can kidnap you come here where do you go with me all right this is where you're

supposed to be here with me yeah you're okay

i promise it's okay all right

you know what it is

it's pigs and sausages it is vienna sausages you're right you're right all

right I'm going to go get a first aid kit. All right, I'm going to put some

cream. Is it so weird if I take a shower in your house? No, it's not weird at

all. Tell me you have a shower. I have a shower and I have clean towels, I think.

They're on the shelf right in here.

Okay, you all right? Yeah.

Yeah, all right.

No, listen, and don't be discouraged by the dishwashing soap. It's the same as

body wash.

No, you know, the body wash thing is like a total fad.

And there's hand sanitizer and you can sanitize any body part.

They were on the hook.

I don't know, it seemed clean-ish.

Yeah, they're mostly clean.

You look, um... Like you.

Um, can I have a... Do you have a drink?

Right, a drink.

Uh, yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Two, six, two.

You like fireball Breaking

and

entering can land you in print. I'm just It's not breaking and entering if you

have Sally's emergency key.

And this is an emergency.

Rainy day bottle.

Oh, today was very rainy.

I will replace that.

Delicious. There you go.

Thank you.

To the truth to the truth

You

know what once you tell me one what one

one truth yes after okay, uh Sometimes I sniff my own boots. I do it every

morning. I kind of like Something about the intersection of the leather and me,

I guess. I like it. Okay, drink. I don't love the Beatles.

They're fine.

They're great.

It's not love. No.

We can move on. Drink.

All right.

Sometimes I think my friend Jesus dying saved my life.

Truth.

I don't want kids remotely at all.

I'm worried about passing down the whatever from whoever.

Still not totally sure all the worst stuff missed me.

No, come on. You're a good person. You're a public defender.

Come on. No.

I'm a terrible person. No.

Don't say that.

Your client's lucky to have you. Yeah, you mean Nico is lucky I'm such an

idiot.

That's not what I said. I know it's not what you said, but I'm saying, fuck, I

was so goddamn certain that I knew him. Like, I was so sure.

I mean, my instincts, our instincts are all we have. Like, who am I if I can't

see clearly? That was supposed to be my superpower.

Like with you.

No.

I really see you.

For what it's fucking worth.

What do you see?

I see all the leaves.

I see you at 8 and 15.

Horny stoned with a terrible haircut exactly and I see you at 20 Writing

your manifesto manifesto is a strong word Is that I did write an

indictment of the capitalist destruction of music and the visual arts? You know

you get the idea. That's a manifesto. Yeah, I guess so I see you now

What do you see right now?

Do you think that I don't know that your insane conspiracy war isn't a half

-written story already?

I think that I can't fool you, and I don't want to.

What if I asked you to let it all go?

The story, the truth about it all, would you do that for me?

I'll try.

Would you?

For me?

For you?

Yeah.

Yes.

This asshole.

Good morning!

Whalen says you're selling shit in front of my store?

Huh? Yeah, no, that's what Whalen says. Well, Whalen is mistaken.

I'm cutting out soon.

Oh! Oh, really?

You're leaving?

Yeah, yeah. All with one condition.

I need to get to my storage unit. I've got a present. I know, you've got a

present for Francis, right? I remember.

And then you will leave. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

I saw a girl leave this morning dressed like that bow-legged Annie Hall.

What?

What are you talking about? Annie Hall wasn't bow-legged.

There's nothing wrong with a bow-legged woman.

Your first girlfriend was bow-legged, that Reed girl.

You were pretty serious about her.

Katie Reed? We were five years old.

She wasn't bow-legged, and Annie Hall is not bow-legged. Ginger is not bow

-legged. What kind of name is that?

What, Ginger?

Yeah. It's French or Norwegian or something.

Your name's Frog, all right? So I wouldn't throw stones.

So she's your lady.

No, no.

I mean, maybe.

I don't know.

It's none of your business, okay? It's just we, you know, we enjoy spending

time together.

So much so that you let her leave alone in an unmarked car.

I was sleeping, and I'm sure it was an Uber, not an unmarked car.

Jesus.

Rayvon men like chasing a lot more than we like to keep them.

That affliction is hereditary, of course.

I'm sorry to say I have passed it down.

Well, I appreciate the input, but you and I are not the same.

Aside from your mother, I was a hound.

Like a damn dog with two tails. I never met an itch I didn't want to scratch.

Thoroughly and to completion.

Helen Francis changed all that.

Yeah. Look how good that turned out.

Yeah, thanks to you.

Thanks to me.

It wasn't my idea of you coming and going as you please, breaking her heart

every other month. That's not me, all right? You couldn't even be there for

her at the end.

I wish I could have been.

Well... You could have.

Yeah, if I weren't in that ward that you put me in. No.

Locked in there, prodding me, poking me, zapping me a time or two.

All the while you were poisoning her against me in her final hours. Listen.

You went to the hospital in 2004.

No. Yes, and mom died in 1997.

Ergo, that's true. Well, you pulled into this store right here.

We're almost there. You want to see me urinate all over your car seat here? I

don't think that would represent much of a change in terms of ambience. All

right, first, we're going to turn.

We're turning, all right?

All right.

Everybody's going to pee.

Were you listening to me believe myself?

I most certainly was not.

That stream's strong as a horse, isn't it? It's loud, too.

Can we go now? What are you doing? Gotta get my rations first.

Payday and jerky's all I eat on the road.

Rations? You know that I know that you weren't in Vietnam.

Well, you don't know. We could put in that damn bookstore of yours. Is that a

lot or a little? Do the math, son.

Do the math.

Your mother was a very pretty young woman when I met her.

Why don't we save the small talk?

How do you save small talk? Don't you mean stop the small talk?

Exactly. You know, you're a lot like your mother.

Not real good at conversation.

Not real good at accepting life on life's terms.

The difference between you and me is I let life happen and I adjust. You try to

control it.

That's what I guess people would kill.

At least they did in Vietnam.

Okay. Here we go. There.

Oh, fuck that. Oh, what? No, they don't. That's like Poke Salad Annie. Don't stop

that. I don't want Poke Salad Annie. This classic swamp music. I don't like

that song. You know, our people come from the swamps.

Raybon? That's deep in the Atchafalaya. Come on. Poke Salad Annie, please. I

long don't say, baby.

Happy?

Oh, yeah.

Made the alligators look tame.

Poop salad, ain't it?

Poop salad, ain't it?

If a pat said it was a shame, cause her mama was a-waking on a chain game.

Suck a little poop salad, too.

No one even me a measure.

Pull over right there.

Right here? Yeah, pull over right there. All right, all right.

All right? Okay.

What's this?

Ain't that something?

Gone to hell.

What, we used to live here? Yeah, four years before your mother made me move y

'all to Tulsa.

You don't remember any of that?

Not really.

Had a porch swing, long gone now.

Old man lived over there across the street, old man McDaniel.

He used to come over and sit over on the porch.

Sometimes when we wasn't even here.

He didn't talk very much.

He could talk like Donald Duck.

You got a big kick out of that.

No, like that?

He called him Ca-Duck.

Ca-Duck.

Ca-Duck McDaniel.

He used to sing Jesus on the main line all the time. That wasn't my favorite

tune.

But he loved it.

It smells different now.

Here, let's go eat.

You'll have the cheeseburger.

As will I.

It's best around.

As long as that griddle is still the same.

Some bitch was seasoned back in the biblical days.

Hello, gentlemen.

What can I get you?

We'll both have the cheeseburgers.

Good choice. Onions, tomato, pickle?

Yeah. No tomatoes for me.

What's your name, darling?

Kathy Garner. And you?

I'm Lee Raybon. This is Lee Raybon Jr.

He's a writer.

He won an award.

Is your mama Ida back there? Tell her to leave Ray Bonds here.

Ida was my grandma.

She's been gone a long while now.

My mama passed a few years back, too.

Do you know him?

I knew your grandma in days of old.

They were some special ladies.

Yeah. We miss them. Yeah.

Y'all good with waters?

I reckon I am.

Yeah, water's fun. Thank you.

When I got sweet on your mama, she worked here.

Waited tables.

Really? Yeah. She was 16.

Poor as a church mouse and skinny as a switch.

I used to sit right here until she paid attention to me. Finally one day she

did.

And we walked from here together one day to her house.

And I thought I was poor.

Oh, mercy, those people didn't have two pennies to rub together.

She paid for the whole family.

Don't you have anything to say?

Why'd you leave?

I mean, that's...

All I seem to remember is you leaving and coming back.

Well, we're always leaving and coming back, aren't we? I mean, that's what we

do.

Isn't that what you do?

Leave, come back.

Leave and come back.

Hey. Who's this?

You. Oh, it's not me. It looks like a girl. Yeah, well, your grandmother

wanted a little girl grandbaby, so she went out and bought you a bunch of

girls' clothes and put them on you and had your picture taken.

It was disturbing.

You know, I hadn't seen any of this before you put me in the hospital.

Tell me the truth.

Is that why you came back here, just to stick it to me for hospitalizing you?

Is that what we're doing?

Because if that's the case, it can end right now. I am not sorry for putting

you in there.

I don't care if it was hard. I don't care if it was horrible.

You were out of your mind. You were absolutely unreachable.

And I think somewhere in there, you know that.

Look, I'm not going to apologize for doing the right thing.

Uh-huh.

Oh, your treasure? What is it?

It's a present for Francis, not you.

Okay, great.

What do we have here?

Probably just a bag of antivirus by now.

We're going to have to find out.

They don't make it like they used to.

You know how many psychiatrists it takes to change a light bulb?

How many?

One.

But the light bulb really has to want to change

All right, this is the last stop before Tulsa. Are you sure you don't want to

go? I can control my own bladder schedule.

Thank you very much.

Okay.

It wasn't all that bad in there.

What? The hospital.

I... I... I might have needed a rest.

I'm sure I did.

The Lord told Noah to build him an archy, archy. The Lord told

Noah to build him an archy, archy. I have 15 bucks on the pump out there.

Make it out of every archy, archy children of the

Lord. The animals that came in, came in by Tuesday, Tuesday's

animals. They came in, they came in like roosies, toosies, hippos, peacocks,

kangaroosies, roosies, children of the Lord.

Not much for these suckers, huh?

Yeah, okay. You know that song?

You didn't go to Sunday school?

Well, my dad was a, he was a preacher.

He was a fake preacher, but.

Preacher, nonetheless, there's four books.

It rained and it poured for 40 daisies, daisies. It's

great talking to you.

Drove those animals crazy, crazy, crazy children of the...

Get you the good beef sticks. You're gonna like them.

Hey, Dad.

Rise and shine, huh?

I'm not driving to Tulsa alone.

Dad?

Robin Hood and Little John walking through the forest, laughing back and

forth at what the oven has to say.

Reminiscing this and that and having such a good time. Oodle-lolly, oodle

-lolly, golly, what a day.

Never ever thinking there was danger in the water. They were drinking, they just

guzzled it down.

Never dreaming that a scheming sheriff and his posse was watching them and

gathering around.

Robin Hood and Little John running through the forest. Jumping fences,

dodging trees, trying to get away.

Contemplating nothing but escaping, finally making it. Oodalally, oodalally,

golly, what a day.

Oodalally, oodalally, golly, what a day.
