12 Desperate Hours (2023) Movie Script
- Denny?
Denny?
Denny, look at me.
You don't have to do this.
You don't have to die here.
Morning, hun.
- You're up early. Thank you.
Have you seen my keys?
Right.
- Busy day today?
- You have no idea.
- I booked a sitter for tonight.
- 'cause?
- Date night.
- Right.
- Are we still on, or...?
- Yeah, yeah.
No, we're good, we're good.
I just...
I think I can get back
by like three or four.
- Forgetting something?
- What would I do without you?
- Walk to work on
an empty stomach.
- Yeah.
- Oh, seriously, bob?
- Can I just go bust
that thing over his head?
- No, I'll handle it.
- Okay.
- Oh...
- What is that?
- It's a... A
christmas present.
- Val, I thought we said
we weren't giving gifts
To each other this year.
- Well, we skipped it
for our anniversary
But I thought for
christmas we could still...
- Look, we're still under
water. We got so many...
Look, I'm sorry.
I just... I didn't
know, alright?
- It's no big deal.
- Let's not do this, okay?
Let's not have a
fight over nothing.
- Agreed.
I just thought it was...
Time for something
fun, you know?
Something to, uh... Remember
all our good times by.
Do you want to open it early?
- I'll open it later
tonight, date night, got it?
- Hey, mom.
What's for breakfast?
- What are you doing up already?
- The saw.
- Ah, well... Good.
Because even though
it's winter break
And you're stuck
at home with mom,
I have so many fun
activities planned for today.
We're gonna need that extra
time just to get to them all.
Including some
special reading time,
You and me, parker?
- Baby reading time.
- Spencer, we do not
bully in this house,
And if you are nice,
We are going to bake
christmas cookies at 4 p.M.
- Ugh...
- I... Di... Did?
- Mm-hmm.
- Not cu...
- Cut.
- Cut, cut do...
Dow... Down.
That ch...
- You remember to flip those
vowels and those consonants?
- Che... Che...
- Cherry tree.
- When christmas is over,
I don't want to
go back to school.
- I know it's hard but...
- No, you don't.
You're not there.
They just stare at
me and I'm just...
It sucks and I don't
want to go back.
- Parker, look at me.
I see you,
And you are an intelligent,
Handsome, hardworking young man
Who has so much to
offer this world.
And the world is so
lucky to have you,
And a lot of people were
exactly where you are right now.
Albert einstein,
Pablo picasso, even
george washington.
This is nothing
to be ashamed of.
It's just your brain is
focused on other things
Than what is necessary
for this task.
But you're going to
do great, I know it.
Let's try again.
- I did not cut down that...
Strawberry tree.
- Oh, ha, ha.
- Mom! Dad's on the phone.
- Keep working.
Hey, hun, what's up?
Hey.
Hey, you remember how I
said all the rain this month
Slowed us up on the
concrete work on the side?
- Uh-huh.
- Well, we really gotta
catch up by christmas so...
I'm just gonna have
to work late this week
Most nights and
including tonight.
- That's too bad.
- There's nothing I can
do about it right now.
We're just way behind.
- Yeah, no, I get it. I get it.
I'll see you when
you get home tonight.
- Val, come on...
ugh!
- Hiya, val. What
do you think?
I'm planning to turn the new
addition into a billiard room.
- That sounds fun, bob,
But um... The thing is,
The saw, it's really loud...
- Yeah, I know it's loud.
That's why I wear the ear plugs.
But it's the only
way to cut wood,
So what are you gonna do?
Uh... Anyway, I want to try
And get ahead of the weather.
Did you need something?
- I um... Am making lemonade
for the boys, do you want some?
- Oh! That'd be lovely.
- What's going on?
making lemonade, want some?
- Sweet.
- Yes, bob? Haha!
I'm coming, bob.
Sorry, did I... Did I take too
long to make your lemonade?
What would you like? Would
you like me to make a pie?
What would be good for you, bob?
- Get back!
Get back now!
Close the door!
Close the door!
- Mom?
- That's my son!
That's just my son!
- Is that it?
Is anyone else in
the house?
Is there anyone
else in the house?
- No, there's no one
else in the house.
- Anyone else in the house?
- Mom...
- No.
- You sit over there.
Sit there.
- Where, I don't...
- Not you, not you, not you!
Turn on the television!
- Okay.
- News! News! News!
- News?
- Yes, news.
Crazy day here,
it's the winter solstice,
The shortest day of the
year so prepare yourself
For a wacky weather
day, it's gonna be...
- You know, don't you?
- I... I don't...
- Yes, you do, you know.
I don't know.
- As soon as you saw my
face, you were terrified.
- It's the gun...
Because you have
the gun, that's all.
- Where's your husband?
- He's at work
But he'll be home soon.
- Good.
Who's that?!
Who's that?:
It's my neighbour.
I told him I'd make
him something to drink.
He's going to be expecting me.
- Enough!
Enough, okay?! Enough!
- Stop crying, okay?
What are you so scared of?
Did I ever do anything to you?
- He's just a kid. He
doesn't any better.
Please let me put
him in the other room
And then he'll be
out of your way.
- Go!
- Mom, what's happening?
- Just stay here, okay?
Everything's gonna be fine.
- Wait 'till dad comes home.
Dad will show him.
- Do not leave this room, okay?
Do you understand me?
You wait here until
I come get you, okay?
- That's enough, let's go!
- Mom...
- Okay. Just stay here.
You stay right in here, okay?
Shh.
I love my chocolate
chip cookies
- You should've just...
- Do you want money or
jewelry, credit cards?
I can give you
whatever you want.
- No!
- Then what do you want?
- I need to think!
I'm... I'm... I'm hungry!
I'm hungry.
- Okay, sure.
- I'm hungry.
Mmm. This is good.
You keep a nice house.
That boy's lucky.
You're... You're
raising him right.
You're protecting
him, caring about him.
You know, not...
Not
interfering too much
'cause you can't let other
people interfere in your life.
That's when your life
ain't your life no more,
You know what I mean?
- Mm-hmm.
- Mm-hmm?
- Yes.
- What's your name, anyway?
- Val.
- I'm denny.
who's that? Who's calling?
- I... I don't know.
Do you want me to get it or...?
- No! Don't get it!
Don't get it!
- Okay, sorry.
Hi,
it's the janes.
Please leave a message
after the beep.
Hey, it's me.
I know you're there, pick
up the phone, please.
Val, look, I just
want to explain.
Can you pick up
the phone, please?
Val?
- Mark?
- Hey.
Hey, babe, look I just wanted
to say I didn't realize
How big a thing
this date night was,
So I got a guy to
cover me tonight,
I'll be home before
the sitter gets there.
- No, it's alright.
If... If you have to
work late, I understand.
- No, no. Val, I'm trying.
- No, it's really...
- Can we just start over
today? Can we just do that?
- Really, it's fine.
I totally get it.
Val, I'm
going to be ho...
- Why did you do that?
- Now he'll definitely
come home, early.
And I need a car.
- There's a guy in the
garage! You can take it.
You can take it, you
can leave right now.
- Do I look stupid to you?
- No.
You look scary.
- Good.
You know I can't leave
you here to call the cops.
- Ah, thank god.
You... You could...
You could put me in the
bedroom with my son.
- They'll be looking for
me. I could get spotted.
It's too risky.
- Mom!
- Should I... Let's put
on that news again, right?
Mom!
- Whatever that thing was
that you were looking for...
Wait! No! Wait,
wait, wait, please!
Wait! I'm sorry.
It's my fault, I
should've told you.
- Don't ever lie to me, again!
- I promise!
- Bring him!
- It's okay, it's
okay, it's okay...
I got you.
Okay, there you go.
There you go. Take one.
See, isn't that better? Hmm?
- I'm scared.
- Oh, my boys.
I love you so much.
Spencer, I need you to take
care of your brother, okay?
You wait here until someone
comes to get you, okay?
- What?
- I need to know I can
Count on you.
- Where are you going?
- You are in charge now.
Spencer's in charge, okay?
Promise me?
You be my big brave boys.
You can be brave. I know
you're my brave boys.
- I'm promise.
- Shh, shh, shh.
- I love you, mom.
- I love you, too.
- Promise me you'll come home?
- I'm coming home.
I am coming home.
I'll drive you.
You said you needed a car
But you don't want to leave
me behind or get spotted.
Let me drive you.
You can lie in the back,
I'll take you wherever
you need to go.
Just leave my boys here, okay?
- You love them?
They love you?
- Of course.
- Let's go.
Don't try anything funny, okay?
Drive. Go! Drive!
- Looking good, cherie!
- Thank you, edna.
You guys out for
your morning walk?
- Gotta make sure his
ticker still works.
- Those two are
so stinking cute.
- Yeah.
Right up
here.
On the right.
Slow down.
Slow down!
Quiet. Go in really quiet.
Turn off the
engine. Turn it off.
how long
you been married?
- About 10 years.
- What do you think your
husband would've done
If he came home and found
me in his house with a gun?
- He would've fought you.
- That's what real men do.
We gotta fight for what we love.
You know?
Right?
- Oh.
Yes, that's right.
- Let's go.
Quiet.
Just be really quiet. Okay?
Knock, don't say a word, okay?
- Hey, man!
- Hey, mark. How you doing?
- Sorry, you got any
idea where val went?
- No, but she tore out of here.
- Huh.
Daddy! Help!
- Daddy!
- What is going on? Hey!
Mom's gone. A man took her,
she's gone. She's gone!
You have no right
to blame carly for what you did!
For what I did?
Don't you dare try
to pin this on me!
I did exactly what
you asked me to!
- You are going to go
bankrupt, you idiot!
All that money.
He thought he was so smart.
Who is it?
Coming, hold your horses.
What do you want?
Oh, it's you.
Get inside!
Get inside!
- Where's cherie?
- Would you like a cup of
tea or something, dear?
- Answer me, francine.
- Oh, you always had no sense,
But I thought you at
least had some manners.
- I'm so sick of your crap.
- Oh, what,
You too scared to talk to
me without your big gun?
- Shut up! Shut up!
- Yeah, and who are you?
I know we just met, but
you can do a whole hell
Of a lot better than this man.
She's
not my girlfriend.
I would never do that to
cherie, you know that!
- It don't matter.
Cherie's done with you.
My daughter finally
came to her senses.
What little of
them she ever had.
- You couldn't just
stay out of it.
You were always trying
to ruin what we had.
Why couldn't you
just leave us alone?
Just tell me where she is!
- I don't know what my
daughter ever saw in you!
Or what sob story you told her
To get her to feel
sorry for you.
Aw...
- You can't talk to
me like that, okay?
Not anymore.
- Boy, I don't see you at all.
You're insignificant.
A nuisance my
daughter stepped in
And should've
picked off her heel
And just walked right on past
without a second thought.
- Ma'am, that's not necessary.
- Yeah, what do
you know about it?
This man is a dead beat.
A good-for-nothing,
and he never will be.
- Please, I'd just... I'd
really like to talk to cherie.
- Well, I really
need to win lotto.
Oh... Ah...
Oh, I'm tired of this, denny.
You're a time burglar.
You just stole some
of my precious time.
Stole it right out of my life.
- I told you, you can't talk...
- Just like the countless months
You stole from cherie
and gd knows how many
From this poor woman who's got
about as much sense as you.
On account of the fact
she hadn't gotten up
And walked out of my house yet.
Now, you two, out of my house.
- Ma'am, I don't think you
understand the situation...
- Ugh, trust me, honey.
A worthless runt like denny,
You gotta put him in his place.
And that sure as heck's
not with my daughter.
Tea for two. Oh!
And none for you, little boy.
- Hey, dispatch, can
I get a tow truck
Down to the cold springs bridge?
Truck appears to be abandoned
And the batteries
are dead, over.
- Copy that, requesting
one now. Over.
- Oh, can you also run
the plates for uh...
Washington two, g-a,
one, two, three?
Over.
- Uh, doing that now.
Hey, you're near
wax road, right?
- Yeah, that's affirmative.
- We just got a call,
possible kidnapping
On wax and albright.
- Uh... I'm on it,
send me the address.
Are you okay?
Maybe we should go, hmm?
If you want a tell
cherie how you feel...
There are... There are
better ways to do that
Than what you are doing here.
- You're right.
- Mark! What is going on?
- I got home about
10 minutes ago.
Some guy busted in
the house, alright?
My kids are locked in the room.
Spencer, he says
a man came in here
With a rifle or a
shotgun, maybe sawed off
Or something like that.
But val's not here.
Val's gone! The truck's gone!
- Okay, okay...
- So, he took her with him!
- Mark, mark! Calm down. We
got it. We're on it, okay?
Dispatch, I need more units
on wax road right away,
And I need an abp
out on a vehicle.
- Copy that, units
en route, but dave...
- Yeah?
- We need to get you back
To cold springs
bridge right away.
- What, why? Over.
- Someone's been shot.
We're sending more units.
Just get on over there.
- Yeah, I'm on my way.
I'm sorry, mark,
but I have to go.
It's gonna be okay.
Look, I'm going to send
more units, alright?
- Hey!
Bob, you can watch my kids?
- Of course.
- Listen boys, I will be
right back, I promise you.
listen
to everything he says,
You stay with him,
be right back.
- Dad!
- I thought I told you to leave.
My stories are on.
Oh... Ahh...
Woo!
- When is cherie coming home?
Hey, please, I just... I
really need to talk to her.
- You're so stupid.
- Cherie doesn't live here.
She just told you that
'cause she doesn't want you
To know where she's at.
Cherie doesn't want you
bothering her anymore.
She's through with you.
Get it your thick skull.
I knew he was still alive!
Oh, that bolton is sick, I
knew it, I knew, I knew it!
Oh, my god.
Oh, yeah, you're gonna
have to marry her now,
'cause you're alive.
Oh, he's so handsome.
- Let's go.
Let's go.
- Yeah, you should buy her a
glass of wine, that's right.
Treat her right.
- Is there somewhere
else we need to go or...?
Can... Can I go home now?
Denny, did you hear me?
Can we go home now?
- I have no home.
- What are you doing?
- Give me your hand.
- Ah! What are you doing?
Denny, please.
- Give me your other hand.
- Ah! Denny, please.
Please don't do this.
No! Ow, ow.
- Shh...
- Why are you doing this?
You don't have to do this.
You don't have to
do this, denny!
- I just forgot my cap.
- Denny, wait!
Denny!
Oh!
Oh no!
- 911, can I have...
- Uh, yes, this is
francine bodine.
I want to report...
- Hi, there, uh... My mom
noticed that her neighbour
Didn't bring in
the trash and uh...
We were just wondering if
that's something that we
Could report 'cause it's just
starting to become a little bit
Of an eyesore and
starting to stink.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
- Put that down!
What is wrong with you?
You're acting like a fool!
Denny, stop it! Now!
Help me please!
Help me!
- Mark, get back
in your vehicle!
- I know it's her.
- It's not her.
Alright, it's not val.
- Oh...
Jeeze.
- Ain't nothing else down here.
- Where is she?
Where is she?!
- What happened?
- Just got my cap.
- Is she...
- Just got my cap.
Drive.
Drive! Go!
- Okay! Okay.
Can you
describe the weapon?
It...
It was a big gun
but short like...
Like the barrel was cut
off in the middle and um...
He uh...
The man, he was screaming.
He just wouldn't stop,
he just kept screaming
And screaming and...
- Hey, it's alright.
- Then what happened?
- We... We saw mom
drive away in the car.
He must've been in
the car with her.
Is he gonna hurt mom?
- No.
No, he is not.
- We won't let anything
happen to your mom.
She'll be home as soon
as we find her, alright?
- Come on.
Sheriff, hey!
Sheriff...
- The entire county
Police force is on it.
We'll find her, okay?
- Alright, dave.
- Mark, honey, what did he say?
- Hey.
- Oh... It'll be okay.
It'll be okay.
- I just feel useless, mom.
- I know.
- I can't just sit
here and do nothing.
- I've got the boys, you go, go!
- Thanks, mom.
- Love you.
- Keys?
I'm going to win cherie back.
Yeah, I think you're
right. You just...
You gotta fight
for what you love.
You know, I just...
I need a reminder,
Just how good we can
be together, you know?
And I'll clean up,
I'll get a job, I can be the
man that she wants me to be.
It's just...
I just
need to get to her.
I just need to get to her.
If I could get to her,
she'll understand.
She'll remember, you know how...
How... How good
we were together.
- I just want to
get home to my kids.
- Well, then, get out.
We're not done yet.
- Yo, denny, you're here early.
Want me to set you
up on your usual end?
- No, not... Not today, um...
Just... I was just
looking for cherie.
She coming today or...?
- Nope. I'm not surprised
you guys are looking
For some practice before Friday.
Hands of doom are top seed.
not for long.
Benny's wife can't
pocket to save her life.
who's your friend?
- Uh... She's just
helping me out
With something
special for cherie.
- You always were a romantic.
- Alright, see you.
I mean no matter what
fights we had out there
That got us out
of sync, in here,
We were always just
like...
We're an amazing team. You
should've seen us play.
Like we were just laughing
and drinking and...
Oh god, I love seeing her laugh!
She's just so beautiful.
The way she'd look at me.
Make me feel so good.
She used to make me melt.
Okay and even after we broke up,
I mean, she wanted to, you know,
keep the bowling team together.
- Denny, please,
Can I just make a phone call?
Can I make sure that
my kids are okay?
- Yeah, alright, make it quick.
- Thank you.
Hello?
- Spencer.
- Mom, where are you?
Are you okay?
- I'm fine, are you guys okay?
- Mom, the police are here,
everyone's looking for you.
Where are you?
- Uh, listen, everything's
going to be fine.
I am going to be
home soon and...
And we are going to have
the best christmas ever.
We are going to bake cookies
and, and pie and it's just...
- Alright, that's
enough. That's enough.
- I love you.
- Come on.
Hang it up.
Christmas dinner?
That sounds so nice.
Maybe me and cherie can come.
- Waterdrop nursing
home, how may I help you?
- Hi, uh... Is uh, jessica?
- Denny... You know we're not
supposed to take personal calls
During work hours.
- Yeah, no, no, no.
I know, I was just...
Is... Is, uh...
Is cherie...? Is she
in there today or...?
- No, she's already gone.
Don't call again, okay?
- What did he say?
- What do you think?
Same thing as always.
Trying to track you down.
- Well, thanks.
- Yeah.
- I should just let
it be over, right?
Yes, right, right.
Right?
- You did end it, right?
- Yeah.
Yes.
Told him I moved in with my mom
So he doesn't know
where I live anymore.
- Maybe get rid of those too?
- Hey, if he calls
again, can you just...
- I already know the drill.
This isn't the first time
I've run interference
Between you and denny, okay?
I just hope it's the last.
You can do so much better.
I'm trying.
- So, what do you think?
- About what?
- About cherie keeping
the bowling team together
Even after we broke up.
- Oh.
- I mean, it means she
still loves me, right?
Here, look.
Check this out.
Ah...
Where is it? Where
is it? Oh, look.
Okay, we used to have this
little pregame ritual.
it was so fun.
ahh!
- Ahh, come on, come on.
- You want to see
your kids again?
Do you?!
- Yes.
More than anything.
- Don't do that again.
- Where do you want to go?
- Everybody lies...
I bet she's in there.
Oh...
How do you... How do
you tell your husband
Like, how much you love
him?
Like how do you...
How do you...
How do you say that to him?
- Um...
I um...
I take care of little things
So he doesn't have to.
Like uh...
Sewing the holes in his socks
Before he even
knows they're there.
I try to make him feel special.
Plan time for just the two of us
Even when it's
crazy with the kids.
Sometimes...
People forget how much
they love each other.
Life, you know?
Gets in the way.
You focus on other things and...
Those feelings,
they... They get lost.
If you love her...
Try and get her to see you...
The way you see her.
- I do love her.
- Just, denny, please,
don't hurt anyone.
- I never want to hurt anyone.
Let's go.
- And we got an
abp on the vehicle
So maybe we'll get lucky,
but in case we don't,
We need check points on
every highway and dirt road
Out of this county.
Sheriff jones is gonna walk
Everybody through
the assignments.
- Okay, here's what we got.
We need checkpoints
here and here.
- I'm sorry, I just
couldn't stay in my house.
- It's okay.
The body's been identified.
His name was frank doheny.
His girlfriend said that
frank left early this morning
With a friend named denny.
Her description of him
Matches the one your son gave.
- Well, how the hell did
he end up at our house?
- We're not sure.
I tried to start that truck,
but it wouldn't turn over.
So, it's possible
that after denny ki...
After the vehicle's
owner was deceased,
Denny tried to take the truck,
But it wouldn't start,
so he took off on foot.
I mean, your house just
happened to be the closest.
I'm sorry,
But look, that doesn't mean
That this guy's done
anything to val.
- Oh, yeah, you think?
Guy blew a hole
through his friend,
What do you think
he can do to val?
- Denny, come on, man.
- I know, I know.
I just need to talk to cherie.
- Then call her,
like a normal person.
You can't keep showing
up here like this.
It's weird and creepy.
You need to stop acting like
such a psychopath, okay?
- You need to listen to me.
- I already told
you, she isn't here.
- I don't think
that you understand.
- Wait, uh... I get it.
Nobody wants to get
bothered at work,
But we are here on official
bowling team business uh...
We need to find cherie
because we are playing
The hands of doom this weekend
And uh... They are top seed.
- Well, I don't know anything
About your little
bowling thing, okay?
But she's not here.
- Okay, we'll figure it out.
We'll figure it out.
- Great.
- We'll figure it out, okay?
Come on.
- Thanks. Cherie, she hates it
when I fight with her friends.
You know what? Come on.
Come here.
I knew it!
I knew it! She was here just
like a half an hour ago.
She was just here!
I knew it! I knew it!
She was just here like...
What are you...
Where are you going?
- I'm just keeping watch.
- Okay.
Oh, yes!
Got it!
Okay.
Okay.
Okay, let's go.
Alright, let's go.
- What are y'all
doing back here?
- You lied to me!
- You need to leave!
- Know what happened
to the last person
Who lied to me about cherie?
- I've had enough! You need to
leave, I'm calling the cops.
you should try being a little
More thoughtful when someone
comes looking for a loved on.
Try using your eyes.
Can't you see what's
happening here?
Someone needs your help.
- Let's go, come on!
- 911.
- Yes, I need to
report something.
- Dave?
- Just got a call.
Denny's been spotted.
- But did they spot
val? Is she okay?
- We're not sure, I'll let
you know when we do, okay?
- Let me know nothing,
I'm coming with you.
- What's going
on? Where's mom?
- Sweetheart, you
father's gonna find her.
They'll both be home soon.
They will.
It's going to be okay. Spencer?
Spencer?
- Grandma,
Can we make cookies?
We should have them ready
before mom comes home.
- Can we please, pretty please?
- Honey, that's a great idea.
Let's make cookies.
- They'll be looking
for us by now.
You know, we gotta
wait until it's dark.
It'll be easier to
move around then.
I... Oh, I knew it. I knew it.
Not one other date
in two months.
Two months!
You know what that means, right?
You get it?
This... I mean this girl,
She is beautiful,
she could get a date
With any guy, any time.
She still loves me.
She still loves me.
- Now that you know that
she still loves you,
Maybe this isn't
the right approach,
Because what you're doing,
It could drive her away.
Maybe she just needs some
space. Just for a while, hmm?
- I know my girl.
I know my girl, no.
Too much distance does not make
the heart grow fonder, okay?
No, she needs to feel loved.
- But denny, what
about the pictures?
- I mean, look
how happy we look!
Look how happy we look!
Look at it, don't we look happy?
- Yeah, you do.
- That's... That's
'cause we were.
We took this trip to california,
We called it our honeymoon,
And we would just walk
the beach every day,
And we got like, the sand
between our toes and...
The water was so sparkly.
Cherie would say it looked
like dancing angels.
And we would watch
that green flash uh...
That's...
Oh, over in the
pacific they have...
Do you know there's
like this green flash,
Like, the sun comes down,
and then it goes like, pfft!
And it flashes.
- Oh, yeah.
- You know what I mean?
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
It was at pismo beach.
Which is the clam capital
of the world, the world!
- Mm-hmm.
- We always said that
we'd go back there.
I even have the postcard
that cherie gave me.
The exact spot. And uh...
It was just the best
week of our lives.
- But denny,
She put the pictures
in the trash.
- Yeah, but you don't know that.
That could've been a
janitor or that lying nurse.
I mean...
You saw her, there
was always people
Trying to interfere
in our relationship.
Always trying to get between us.
No, we're... We're going
to go back to pismo,
You know, we'll
have our honeymoon.
I'll get a job, you know,
everything will be great.
Everything will be great.
I just... I have to... I
just have to get to her.
I have to get near her.
I have to talk to her,
get her to understand.
And that's... I mean,
that's... I think that's why
We were brought like,
together. You know what I mean?
Like fate. Fate!
- Mom!
I brought your mail in.
Mom?
Mom?
Mom?
- Yeah, he came
here with a woman.
- Um...
Was that her?
- Yeah, that's her.
- Was she okay?
- She seemed fine.
- What do you mean by fine?
Was she scared, was
she hurt, was she...
- Mark.
- How was her disposition?
- Um, it was a little
weird at first,
But she actually helped calm
down that piece of crap.
The orderlies were gonna
kick him out of here,
But she stepped in.
- Val did that?
- Yeah, good thing too.
We didn't even know he was armed
Until we saw him
leave the building.
- Did you see the
weapon clearly?
- Yes, it was a sawed-off
shotgun underneath his jacket.
- Thank you so much.
- Um... Excuse me.
She dropped this.
I'm pretty sure it's for you.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
- "mark, I love you so much.
Take care of the kids."
I wish...
I wish.
- We got units concentrating
their efforts here,
And checkpoints all
over this county.
He's not going anywhere.
And that uh... That
wife of yours is a hero.
- Yeah, val's some
kind of woman.
I mean, she don't hesitate
to put herself in harms way
To protect a complete stranger.
But I'll tell you right now,
I just want her to do enough
to protect herself, you know?
- We'll find him.
- Sergeant, you there? Over.
- Yeah, go for corbin, over.
- We need you at a new location.
Another body's been discovered.
- On my way.
Yes, yes, yes!
This is it. This is
where she has to be.
Look, the motel
address right there.
This is where she has to be.
We could just go there.
- If she is there, then what?
- Then I'll tell her how I feel.
Go to california!
I'll live happily ever after!
- And me?
- Oh, you can go.
you can go...
Why are we on empty?
Why are we on empty?
- Um...
- You said you were never
going to lie to me again.
- I... I didn't lie.
- You said you were never lie to me again.
Why are we on empty?
- I didn't lie.
- Yes, you did lie to me, you
want us to run out of gas!
You wanted us to run
out of gas, didn't you?
yes. I did want to!
I did want to run out of gas
Because I can't keep
driving you around,
Watching you hurt people!
- Drive! Drive!
You drive now!
You drive now! We need gas!
Go get the gas!
Go get the gas!
Go get the gas!
Okay, give me some
money, hurry up.
- I don't have any money.
I didn't bring anything with me.
- Okay, give me the keys.
Alright, don't move.
- No, wait!
Uh... I'll do it.
I'll... I'll talk
to him, I can do it.
- Alright, no funny
business, or people get hurt.
- Okay.
- Hey ya.
- Hey.
- I'll take one of these
And 30 on pump six.
- Alright.
- Oh my... I um...
I think I left my
wallet at home.
Oh, duh.
Oh jeez, you know what?
I am right on empty,
I only live five
miles from here,
But I don't think I
have enough to get home.
I hate to ask this,
but is there any way
You can spot me the gas?
I'll go home and be
back in 15 minutes.
- Listen lady, this is a gas
station, it's not a bank.
- What's your name, jimmy?
Jimmy...
I got two little kids at home
And I need to get back or
they're gonna be scared.
- What do you want
me to do here?
You give me money,
I give you gas.
That's how this works.
- Jim...
I want you to take a long
hard look at yourself, hmm?
- Are you, like,
serious right now?
- Mmm. Yeah, you see this guy?
Look, are you looking at him?
- Yeah.
- Look at him.
- Yeah, okay.
- Look at him.
- Okay.
- Now, you tell me.
Is he going to be a
pompous jerk today,
Or is he going to
do something good?
Something special to help a mom
Get home to her two kids
before they are scared.
okay, okay, fine.
Fine, I'll put 30
on pump six, happy?
- Merry christmas.
- We broke up a few weeks ago.
Denny's always been troubled.
His mom ran out on
him and his brother,
And his dad was really abusive.
You know, he was in and
out of foster care...
And he ended up at
an all boys' home.
When he joined the army,
It only lasted a few months
Before he was
dishonourably discharged.
There was an incident.
A violent incident between
him and another serviceman.
- Your denny's girl, huh?
- Used to be.
- You're the husband?
- Yep.
- I hate him too, you know?
Biggest mistake of my life.
- Yep.
- His mom abandoned him,
And his dad used to beat him,
And then he was in the
foster-care system,
And then he joined the army,
and that was a disaster.
- I don't care.
He killed your mom.
Now he's driving
around somewhere
With a gun to my wife's head.
- I'm sorry.
- How'd you end up
with a guy like that?
- He wasn't always like that.
He looked at me like no one
ever looked at me before.
Do you know what it's like
to be loved like that?
To be needed like that?
- Hey, mark, you two
can't be talking.
We got a few more
questions for you anyways.
- Right.
I am sorry about your mother.
I'm sorry.
Yeah.
- If you find him, are
you going to hurt him?
- Not if we don't have to.
- I might know how to help.
- Do you know where he's going?
- No.
But he'll come for me.
He always does.
- She lives right there.
I bet she's in there right now.
- You can't just March right
in there with a shotgun.
- Keys?
Hello?
Hello?
- Cherie, it's me, it's denny.
- Denny, hi.
It's good to hear your voice.
How are you, how are you doing?
- I'm uh...
I'm really good.
I'm just... I've just been
thinking about you so much.
- Yeah?
I've been thinking
about you too.
- Really?
Ah. Oh man.
Um...
- Denny?
- No, I just...
I have so much I want to say.
- Me too.
Why don't we get
together and talk?
I miss you.
- Oh god, it feels really
good to hear you say that.
I um... I have this trip planned
And you're gonna like it.
It's our favourite place
in the whole world.
- Sounds really good, denny.
- You know the one, right?
Come on, let me hear
you say it.
Come on.
Please let me just
hear you say it.
- Yeah, why don't we...
Why don't we get together
And we can talk travel plans?
Where are you?
I'll come get you.
- Cherie, you know
I love you, right?
- I know you do.
Where are you?
- You still love me, right?
- Of course.
Just tell me where you are.
Line's dead.
- Got it.
- He's on this block.
Everybody downstairs now!
Go, go, go!
- Let's go.
- Can I get you anything else?
- No, thanks.
- What chapter are you on?
- Chapter 2.
He just cut down
the cherry tree.
- Oh yeah, I remember that.
You want to read to me?
- I did not cut down
that cherry tree.
- Good job. Alright...
- I'm sorry.
- I don't need your pity.
It just if she
doesn't love me...
What's the point?
And I'm not going
back in a cell.
I've done that.
I'd rather die here on
the streets just fighting.
This is it.
There is nothing left for me.
- Mark and me went
on a honeymoon.
To victoria island.
It was so elegant.
European almost.
We went sailing during the day
And ate ice cream walking
along the harbour at night.
The way he looked at me...
As if time stopped
just for the two of us.
But that was a long time ago
Before...
Kids and jobs and a mortgage.
- Life.
- It gets in the way.
You forget...
What you love and why even if...
Even if every day, it's standing
Right in front of
you when you wake up.
For christmas...
I thought I could get
mark something that would
Make him remember...
How he used to look at me.
How precious time is, how
it shouldn't be wasted.
- What did you get him?
- A watch.
- Denny, I don't even know if
my husband loves me anymore,
But I do know that all I want,
All I want right now
Is to get home to
him and my boys.
- You do what I say for just
a little while longer, and...
I promise
I'll take you home.
Alright?
- Okay.
Okay.
- Alright, drive.
- Where are we going?
- It's right up here.
Just keep going.
Come on.
Hey.
- Uncle denny!
- What's up, sport?
How you been?
- You should've me
at my last game,
Knocked out two homers!
- Oh, I'm sorry I missed it.
- You gotta come around more.
- Yeah, I'll try, bud.
- Come on in.
- Well, shoot,
If it ain't little brother.
- Hey, jesse.
- Hey, nash, why don't you
skedaddle for a little bit?
Go play video
games in your room.
- Yeah.
- See you, bud.
- Well, you uh...
You look like crap.
What's been going on with you?
Usual.
- Who's the lucky lady?
- Oh, it's my friend, val.
- Val.
Aren't you a little old
to be with this one?
- We're just friends.
- You get a job yet, denny?
Kidding, I know that's
never going to happen.
Well, you're lucky
you're here when you are,
Because carolee is
still at the grocer's,
So whatever you want, why
don't you go and spit it out
Before she gets back?
What do you need?
Did you get her pregnant?
- I said it's not like that.
- Yeah, I figured.
I mean, look at him.
- I need some
help. I need a car.
- Well, I've had it,
that's a new one.
Oh, boy.
- What in the hell
is he doing here?
- Trying to jack my new car.
- Ha! That's rich.
What's he want it for?
Another trip to
the clam capital?
that's really unnecessary.
- Yeah? And who are you?
The next hussy?
- I don't really have
anywhere else to go.
You're kind of my
only family, um...
- Hey, hey, hey.
Yeah, I mean, we're
family, right?
We're family?:
Yeah, we're family.
- So... Alright.
To family.
Yeah.
here you go.
Here you go, take it,
take it. Denny, take it.
- Take 'em!
Oh!
No, I'm serious this time,
you can have time, really,
Take them, take them.
Alright, that was it.
I promise I was just
Playing around with
you. Take it, please.
You and me, we ain't family,
And we ain't ever been a family.
- Mm-hmm.
- That's why we grew up
In the fosters.
Yeah. Look, take this
fiver, and get out of here.
that's
more than you deserve, denny.
You're a sinkhole.
You can't help but
get sucked down,
And you pull anybody
close on down with you.
You'll see.
Just like when you got
kicked out of juvie,
Or when you ran out of the army.
You come in here with
your little peashooter
And your tail between your legs
and you try to sink us too?
Uh-uh.
Now get out.
Get out of my house
Before I have jesse
whip your ass again!
- You two ought to be
ashamed of yourselves.
- Girl you better
watch who you're...
- You watch it! This
man, he is not perfect,
I know that, and so do you, but
dragging him through the mud
For your own amusement?
That's... That's just wrong.
He's your family.
Doesn't that mean
anything to you?
let's just go.
Denny...
- I have no family here.
- See you later, little brother.
- Denny?
Denny, you're not coming?
- No.
- Denny, don't do anything...
- You and your uh...
Your husband, I...
I hope it works out.
- Denny.
you can go home now.
Just go home.
answer the phone.
- What?
- Answer the phone.
- Okay, fine, I'll get it.
- Get it.
- Hey.
- Where's the remote?
- I don't know.
Hello?
Oh damn, yeah, we've seen him.
Why, what he'd do this time?
No!
- All I want is a ride.
All I want is a ride.
All I wanted was a ride!
That's all you had to do
Was give me a ride!
- Easy, easy, easy.
- You see me, you see me?
All I ever wanted was a ride.
- No!
- Just a little bit of help,
That's all I ever wanted.
- Denny! Denny, no!
- Dad!
- No!
- Hey, come on, it's
okay. It's alright.
- Denny...
- Sorry, sport.
- Let's go.
- You said you love your kids?
Should've gone home to 'em.
- I couldn't do that.
- 10-4.
- What's going on?
- We just got word
denny was seen
Over at his brother's house.
It's not far from here.
Come on, let's go.
- Alright, alright.
- Okay, okay, alright.
Just keep going.
- Where do you want me to go?
- Get down toward the river.
- Okay.
- Stop, stop! Stop, stop!
Uh... Okay, back up, back up.
- Uh, okay.
- Back up! Back up!
Back up! Back up!
Okay, uh...
Stop, stop, stop, stop!
- Which way do you

- Go straight. Go straight.
Go straight. Not too fast.
- Okay, okay.
- Okay, okay. Right,
right. Turn right.
Turn right, turn right.
- Ah...
- Stop, stop, stop, stop!
- Denny!
They're everywhere.
- Stop!
Denny tuohmy,
we have you surrounded!
Step out of the vehicle
with your hands up.
Let us see your hands!
- Stay back! Stay back!

Please!
- Put your weapon
outside the car!
- Get out or we will shoot.
- Denny, denny...
Denny...
Denny...
Look at me.
You don't have to do this.
You don't have to die here.
Denny tuohmy...
Throw out your weapon.
Get out of the car, now.

Think about what you're doing.

out of the vehicle
Or we will open fire!
- No, no, no! Nobody

That's my wife!
- Denny. Denny.
Think about the people
who care about you.
Hmm?
- Nobody cares about me.
- That's not true.
That boy, nash, he
cares about you.
Listen, I don't know
if you're going to get
The love you want from cherie,
but I do know that if you...
If you want a chance at that,
You have to start being the
man that she wants you to be.
The man you want to be, hmm?
The man who took
her to california
To see the flash of
green in the pacific
And the sand between your toes.
Okay?
- Uh, uh...
- Okay...
okay.
- It's okay.
That's it.
- Throw out your weapon! Now!
- Don't shoot him!
- Move! Go, go, go, go!
- Denny, slowly reach
out with your right hand
And open the door.
- Hands up! Hands up!
- Okay, okay, okay!
He's getting out!
He's getting out!
- Open the door
and get out slowly!
Look away from me!
- Get out of the car!
Put your hands up!
down on your knees!
- Stay on the ground!
- Belly down!
- Hands behind your
back. Don't move!
- Are you alright?
- On the ground!
- Denny, you have the
right to remain silent.
Anything you say can and will
Be used against you
in a court of law.

You don't have to do this.
You don't have to die here.
Morning, hun.
- You're up early. Thank you.
Have you seen my keys?
Right.
- Busy day today?
- You have no idea.
- I booked a sitter for tonight.
- 'cause?
- Date night.
- Right.
- Are we still on, or...?
- Yeah, yeah.
No, we're good, we're good.
I just...
I think I can get back
by like three or four.
- Forgetting something?
- What would I do without you?
- Walk to work on
an empty stomach.
- Yeah.
- Oh, seriously, bob?
- Can I just go bust
that thing over his head?
- No, I'll handle it.
- Okay.
- Oh...
- What is that?
- It's a... A
christmas present.
- Val, I thought we said
we weren't giving gifts
To each other this year.
- Well, we skipped it
for our anniversary
But I thought for
christmas we could still...
- Look, we're still under
water. We got so many...
Look, I'm sorry.
I just... I didn't
know, alright?
- It's no big deal.
- Let's not do this, okay?
Let's not have a
fight over nothing.
- Agreed.
I just thought it was...
Time for something
fun, you know?
Something to, uh... Remember
all our good times by.
Do you want to open it early?
- I'll open it later
tonight, date night, got it?
- Hey, mom.
What's for breakfast?
- What are you doing up already?
- The saw.
- Ah, well... Good.
Because even though
it's winter break
And you're stuck
at home with mom,
I have so many fun
activities planned for today.
We're gonna need that extra
time just to get to them all.
Including some
special reading time,
You and me, parker?
- Baby reading time.
- Spencer, we do not
bully in this house,
And if you are nice,
We are going to bake
christmas cookies at 4 p.M.
- Ugh...
- I... Di... Did?
- Mm-hmm.
- Not cu...
- Cut.
- Cut, cut do...
Dow... Down.
That ch...
- You remember to flip those
vowels and those consonants?
- Che... Che...
- Cherry tree.
- When christmas is over,
I don't want to
go back to school.
- I know it's hard but...
- No, you don't.
You're not there.
They just stare at
me and I'm just...
It sucks and I don't
want to go back.
- Parker, look at me.
I see you,
And you are an intelligent,
Handsome, hardworking young man
Who has so much to
offer this world.
And the world is so
lucky to have you,
And a lot of people were
exactly where you are right now.
Albert einstein,
Pablo picasso, even
george washington.
This is nothing
to be ashamed of.
It's just your brain is
focused on other things
Than what is necessary
for this task.
But you're going to
do great, I know it.
Let's try again.
- I did not cut down that...
Strawberry tree.
- Oh, ha, ha.
- Mom! Dad's on the phone.
- Keep working.
Hey, hun, what's up?
Hey.
Hey, you remember how I
said all the rain this month
Slowed us up on the
concrete work on the side?
- Uh-huh.
- Well, we really gotta
catch up by christmas so...
I'm just gonna have
to work late this week
Most nights and
including tonight.
- That's too bad.
- There's nothing I can
do about it right now.
We're just way behind.
- Yeah, no, I get it. I get it.
I'll see you when
you get home tonight.
- Val, come on...
ugh!
- Hiya, val. What
do you think?
I'm planning to turn the new
addition into a billiard room.
- That sounds fun, bob,
But um... The thing is,
The saw, it's really loud...
- Yeah, I know it's loud.
That's why I wear the ear plugs.
But it's the only
way to cut wood,
So what are you gonna do?
Uh... Anyway, I want to try
And get ahead of the weather.
Did you need something?
- I um... Am making lemonade
for the boys, do you want some?
- Oh! That'd be lovely.
- What's going on?
making lemonade, want some?
- Sweet.
- Yes, bob? Haha!
I'm coming, bob.
Sorry, did I... Did I take too
long to make your lemonade?
What would you like? Would
you like me to make a pie?
What would be good for you, bob?
- Get back!
Get back now!
Close the door!
Close the door!
- Mom?
- That's my son!
That's just my son!
- Is that it?
Is anyone else in
the house?
Is there anyone
else in the house?
- No, there's no one
else in the house.
- Anyone else in the house?
- Mom...
- No.
- You sit over there.
Sit there.
- Where, I don't...
- Not you, not you, not you!
Turn on the television!
- Okay.
- News! News! News!
- News?
- Yes, news.
Crazy day here,
it's the winter solstice,
The shortest day of the
year so prepare yourself
For a wacky weather
day, it's gonna be...
- You know, don't you?
- I... I don't...
- Yes, you do, you know.
I don't know.
- As soon as you saw my
face, you were terrified.
- It's the gun...
Because you have
the gun, that's all.
- Where's your husband?
- He's at work
But he'll be home soon.
- Good.
Who's that?!
Who's that?:
It's my neighbour.
I told him I'd make
him something to drink.
He's going to be expecting me.
- Enough!
Enough, okay?! Enough!
- Stop crying, okay?
What are you so scared of?
Did I ever do anything to you?
- He's just a kid. He
doesn't any better.
Please let me put
him in the other room
And then he'll be
out of your way.
- Go!
- Mom, what's happening?
- Just stay here, okay?
Everything's gonna be fine.
- Wait 'till dad comes home.
Dad will show him.
- Do not leave this room, okay?
Do you understand me?
You wait here until
I come get you, okay?
- That's enough, let's go!
- Mom...
- Okay. Just stay here.
You stay right in here, okay?
Shh.
I love my chocolate
chip cookies
- You should've just...
- Do you want money or
jewelry, credit cards?
I can give you
whatever you want.
- No!
- Then what do you want?
- I need to think!
I'm... I'm... I'm hungry!
I'm hungry.
- Okay, sure.
- I'm hungry.
Mmm. This is good.
You keep a nice house.
That boy's lucky.
You're... You're
raising him right.
You're protecting
him, caring about him.
You know, not...
Not
interfering too much
'cause you can't let other
people interfere in your life.
That's when your life
ain't your life no more,
You know what I mean?
- Mm-hmm.
- Mm-hmm?
- Yes.
- What's your name, anyway?
- Val.
- I'm denny.
who's that? Who's calling?
- I... I don't know.
Do you want me to get it or...?
- No! Don't get it!
Don't get it!
- Okay, sorry.
Hi,
it's the janes.
Please leave a message
after the beep.
Hey, it's me.
I know you're there, pick
up the phone, please.
Val, look, I just
want to explain.
Can you pick up
the phone, please?
Val?
- Mark?
- Hey.
Hey, babe, look I just wanted
to say I didn't realize
How big a thing
this date night was,
So I got a guy to
cover me tonight,
I'll be home before
the sitter gets there.
- No, it's alright.
If... If you have to
work late, I understand.
- No, no. Val, I'm trying.
- No, it's really...
- Can we just start over
today? Can we just do that?
- Really, it's fine.
I totally get it.
Val, I'm
going to be ho...
- Why did you do that?
- Now he'll definitely
come home, early.
And I need a car.
- There's a guy in the
garage! You can take it.
You can take it, you
can leave right now.
- Do I look stupid to you?
- No.
You look scary.
- Good.
You know I can't leave
you here to call the cops.
- Ah, thank god.
You... You could...
You could put me in the
bedroom with my son.
- They'll be looking for
me. I could get spotted.
It's too risky.
- Mom!
- Should I... Let's put
on that news again, right?
Mom!
- Whatever that thing was
that you were looking for...
Wait! No! Wait,
wait, wait, please!
Wait! I'm sorry.
It's my fault, I
should've told you.
- Don't ever lie to me, again!
- I promise!
- Bring him!
- It's okay, it's
okay, it's okay...
I got you.
Okay, there you go.
There you go. Take one.
See, isn't that better? Hmm?
- I'm scared.
- Oh, my boys.
I love you so much.
Spencer, I need you to take
care of your brother, okay?
You wait here until someone
comes to get you, okay?
- What?
- I need to know I can
Count on you.
- Where are you going?
- You are in charge now.
Spencer's in charge, okay?
Promise me?
You be my big brave boys.
You can be brave. I know
you're my brave boys.
- I'm promise.
- Shh, shh, shh.
- I love you, mom.
- I love you, too.
- Promise me you'll come home?
- I'm coming home.
I am coming home.
I'll drive you.
You said you needed a car
But you don't want to leave
me behind or get spotted.
Let me drive you.
You can lie in the back,
I'll take you wherever
you need to go.
Just leave my boys here, okay?
- You love them?
They love you?
- Of course.
- Let's go.
Don't try anything funny, okay?
Drive. Go! Drive!
- Looking good, cherie!
- Thank you, edna.
You guys out for
your morning walk?
- Gotta make sure his
ticker still works.
- Those two are
so stinking cute.
- Yeah.
Right up
here.
On the right.
Slow down.
Slow down!
Quiet. Go in really quiet.
Turn off the
engine. Turn it off.
how long
you been married?
- About 10 years.
- What do you think your
husband would've done
If he came home and found
me in his house with a gun?
- He would've fought you.
- That's what real men do.
We gotta fight for what we love.
You know?
Right?
- Oh.
Yes, that's right.
- Let's go.
Quiet.
Just be really quiet. Okay?
Knock, don't say a word, okay?
- Hey, man!
- Hey, mark. How you doing?
- Sorry, you got any
idea where val went?
- No, but she tore out of here.
- Huh.
Daddy! Help!
- Daddy!
- What is going on? Hey!
Mom's gone. A man took her,
she's gone. She's gone!
You have no right
to blame carly for what you did!
For what I did?
Don't you dare try
to pin this on me!
I did exactly what
you asked me to!
- You are going to go
bankrupt, you idiot!
All that money.
He thought he was so smart.
Who is it?
Coming, hold your horses.
What do you want?
Oh, it's you.
Get inside!
Get inside!
- Where's cherie?
- Would you like a cup of
tea or something, dear?
- Answer me, francine.
- Oh, you always had no sense,
But I thought you at
least had some manners.
- I'm so sick of your crap.
- Oh, what,
You too scared to talk to
me without your big gun?
- Shut up! Shut up!
- Yeah, and who are you?
I know we just met, but
you can do a whole hell
Of a lot better than this man.
She's
not my girlfriend.
I would never do that to
cherie, you know that!
- It don't matter.
Cherie's done with you.
My daughter finally
came to her senses.
What little of
them she ever had.
- You couldn't just
stay out of it.
You were always trying
to ruin what we had.
Why couldn't you
just leave us alone?
Just tell me where she is!
- I don't know what my
daughter ever saw in you!
Or what sob story you told her
To get her to feel
sorry for you.
Aw...
- You can't talk to
me like that, okay?
Not anymore.
- Boy, I don't see you at all.
You're insignificant.
A nuisance my
daughter stepped in
And should've
picked off her heel
And just walked right on past
without a second thought.
- Ma'am, that's not necessary.
- Yeah, what do
you know about it?
This man is a dead beat.
A good-for-nothing,
and he never will be.
- Please, I'd just... I'd
really like to talk to cherie.
- Well, I really
need to win lotto.
Oh... Ah...
Oh, I'm tired of this, denny.
You're a time burglar.
You just stole some
of my precious time.
Stole it right out of my life.
- I told you, you can't talk...
- Just like the countless months
You stole from cherie
and gd knows how many
From this poor woman who's got
about as much sense as you.
On account of the fact
she hadn't gotten up
And walked out of my house yet.
Now, you two, out of my house.
- Ma'am, I don't think you
understand the situation...
- Ugh, trust me, honey.
A worthless runt like denny,
You gotta put him in his place.
And that sure as heck's
not with my daughter.
Tea for two. Oh!
And none for you, little boy.
- Hey, dispatch, can
I get a tow truck
Down to the cold springs bridge?
Truck appears to be abandoned
And the batteries
are dead, over.
- Copy that, requesting
one now. Over.
- Oh, can you also run
the plates for uh...
Washington two, g-a,
one, two, three?
Over.
- Uh, doing that now.
Hey, you're near
wax road, right?
- Yeah, that's affirmative.
- We just got a call,
possible kidnapping
On wax and albright.
- Uh... I'm on it,
send me the address.
Are you okay?
Maybe we should go, hmm?
If you want a tell
cherie how you feel...
There are... There are
better ways to do that
Than what you are doing here.
- You're right.
- Mark! What is going on?
- I got home about
10 minutes ago.
Some guy busted in
the house, alright?
My kids are locked in the room.
Spencer, he says
a man came in here
With a rifle or a
shotgun, maybe sawed off
Or something like that.
But val's not here.
Val's gone! The truck's gone!
- Okay, okay...
- So, he took her with him!
- Mark, mark! Calm down. We
got it. We're on it, okay?
Dispatch, I need more units
on wax road right away,
And I need an abp
out on a vehicle.
- Copy that, units
en route, but dave...
- Yeah?
- We need to get you back
To cold springs
bridge right away.
- What, why? Over.
- Someone's been shot.
We're sending more units.
Just get on over there.
- Yeah, I'm on my way.
I'm sorry, mark,
but I have to go.
It's gonna be okay.
Look, I'm going to send
more units, alright?
- Hey!
Bob, you can watch my kids?
- Of course.
- Listen boys, I will be
right back, I promise you.
listen
to everything he says,
You stay with him,
be right back.
- Dad!
- I thought I told you to leave.
My stories are on.
Oh... Ahh...
Woo!
- When is cherie coming home?
Hey, please, I just... I
really need to talk to her.
- You're so stupid.
- Cherie doesn't live here.
She just told you that
'cause she doesn't want you
To know where she's at.
Cherie doesn't want you
bothering her anymore.
She's through with you.
Get it your thick skull.
I knew he was still alive!
Oh, that bolton is sick, I
knew it, I knew, I knew it!
Oh, my god.
Oh, yeah, you're gonna
have to marry her now,
'cause you're alive.
Oh, he's so handsome.
- Let's go.
Let's go.
- Yeah, you should buy her a
glass of wine, that's right.
Treat her right.
- Is there somewhere
else we need to go or...?
Can... Can I go home now?
Denny, did you hear me?
Can we go home now?
- I have no home.
- What are you doing?
- Give me your hand.
- Ah! What are you doing?
Denny, please.
- Give me your other hand.
- Ah! Denny, please.
Please don't do this.
No! Ow, ow.
- Shh...
- Why are you doing this?
You don't have to do this.
You don't have to
do this, denny!
- I just forgot my cap.
- Denny, wait!
Denny!
Oh!
Oh no!
- 911, can I have...
- Uh, yes, this is
francine bodine.
I want to report...
- Hi, there, uh... My mom
noticed that her neighbour
Didn't bring in
the trash and uh...
We were just wondering if
that's something that we
Could report 'cause it's just
starting to become a little bit
Of an eyesore and
starting to stink.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
- Put that down!
What is wrong with you?
You're acting like a fool!
Denny, stop it! Now!
Help me please!
Help me!
- Mark, get back
in your vehicle!
- I know it's her.
- It's not her.
Alright, it's not val.
- Oh...
Jeeze.
- Ain't nothing else down here.
- Where is she?
Where is she?!
- What happened?
- Just got my cap.
- Is she...
- Just got my cap.
Drive.
Drive! Go!
- Okay! Okay.
Can you
describe the weapon?
It...
It was a big gun
but short like...
Like the barrel was cut
off in the middle and um...
He uh...
The man, he was screaming.
He just wouldn't stop,
he just kept screaming
And screaming and...
- Hey, it's alright.
- Then what happened?
- We... We saw mom
drive away in the car.
He must've been in
the car with her.
Is he gonna hurt mom?
- No.
No, he is not.
- We won't let anything
happen to your mom.
She'll be home as soon
as we find her, alright?
- Come on.
Sheriff, hey!
Sheriff...
- The entire county
Police force is on it.
We'll find her, okay?
- Alright, dave.
- Mark, honey, what did he say?
- Hey.
- Oh... It'll be okay.
It'll be okay.
- I just feel useless, mom.
- I know.
- I can't just sit
here and do nothing.
- I've got the boys, you go, go!
- Thanks, mom.
- Love you.
- Keys?
I'm going to win cherie back.
Yeah, I think you're
right. You just...
You gotta fight
for what you love.
You know, I just...
I need a reminder,
Just how good we can
be together, you know?
And I'll clean up,
I'll get a job, I can be the
man that she wants me to be.
It's just...
I just
need to get to her.
I just need to get to her.
If I could get to her,
she'll understand.
She'll remember, you know how...
How... How good
we were together.
- I just want to
get home to my kids.
- Well, then, get out.
We're not done yet.
- Yo, denny, you're here early.
Want me to set you
up on your usual end?
- No, not... Not today, um...
Just... I was just
looking for cherie.
She coming today or...?
- Nope. I'm not surprised
you guys are looking
For some practice before Friday.
Hands of doom are top seed.
not for long.
Benny's wife can't
pocket to save her life.
who's your friend?
- Uh... She's just
helping me out
With something
special for cherie.
- You always were a romantic.
- Alright, see you.
I mean no matter what
fights we had out there
That got us out
of sync, in here,
We were always just
like...
We're an amazing team. You
should've seen us play.
Like we were just laughing
and drinking and...
Oh god, I love seeing her laugh!
She's just so beautiful.
The way she'd look at me.
Make me feel so good.
She used to make me melt.
Okay and even after we broke up,
I mean, she wanted to, you know,
keep the bowling team together.
- Denny, please,
Can I just make a phone call?
Can I make sure that
my kids are okay?
- Yeah, alright, make it quick.
- Thank you.
Hello?
- Spencer.
- Mom, where are you?
Are you okay?
- I'm fine, are you guys okay?
- Mom, the police are here,
everyone's looking for you.
Where are you?
- Uh, listen, everything's
going to be fine.
I am going to be
home soon and...
And we are going to have
the best christmas ever.
We are going to bake cookies
and, and pie and it's just...
- Alright, that's
enough. That's enough.
- I love you.
- Come on.
Hang it up.
Christmas dinner?
That sounds so nice.
Maybe me and cherie can come.
- Waterdrop nursing
home, how may I help you?
- Hi, uh... Is uh, jessica?
- Denny... You know we're not
supposed to take personal calls
During work hours.
- Yeah, no, no, no.
I know, I was just...
Is... Is, uh...
Is cherie...? Is she
in there today or...?
- No, she's already gone.
Don't call again, okay?
- What did he say?
- What do you think?
Same thing as always.
Trying to track you down.
- Well, thanks.
- Yeah.
- I should just let
it be over, right?
Yes, right, right.
Right?
- You did end it, right?
- Yeah.
Yes.
Told him I moved in with my mom
So he doesn't know
where I live anymore.
- Maybe get rid of those too?
- Hey, if he calls
again, can you just...
- I already know the drill.
This isn't the first time
I've run interference
Between you and denny, okay?
I just hope it's the last.
You can do so much better.
I'm trying.
- So, what do you think?
- About what?
- About cherie keeping
the bowling team together
Even after we broke up.
- Oh.
- I mean, it means she
still loves me, right?
Here, look.
Check this out.
Ah...
Where is it? Where
is it? Oh, look.
Okay, we used to have this
little pregame ritual.
it was so fun.
ahh!
- Ahh, come on, come on.
- You want to see
your kids again?
Do you?!
- Yes.
More than anything.
- Don't do that again.
- Where do you want to go?
- Everybody lies...
I bet she's in there.
Oh...
How do you... How do
you tell your husband
Like, how much you love
him?
Like how do you...
How do you...
How do you say that to him?
- Um...
I um...
I take care of little things
So he doesn't have to.
Like uh...
Sewing the holes in his socks
Before he even
knows they're there.
I try to make him feel special.
Plan time for just the two of us
Even when it's
crazy with the kids.
Sometimes...
People forget how much
they love each other.
Life, you know?
Gets in the way.
You focus on other things and...
Those feelings,
they... They get lost.
If you love her...
Try and get her to see you...
The way you see her.
- I do love her.
- Just, denny, please,
don't hurt anyone.
- I never want to hurt anyone.
Let's go.
- And we got an
abp on the vehicle
So maybe we'll get lucky,
but in case we don't,
We need check points on
every highway and dirt road
Out of this county.
Sheriff jones is gonna walk
Everybody through
the assignments.
- Okay, here's what we got.
We need checkpoints
here and here.
- I'm sorry, I just
couldn't stay in my house.
- It's okay.
The body's been identified.
His name was frank doheny.
His girlfriend said that
frank left early this morning
With a friend named denny.
Her description of him
Matches the one your son gave.
- Well, how the hell did
he end up at our house?
- We're not sure.
I tried to start that truck,
but it wouldn't turn over.
So, it's possible
that after denny ki...
After the vehicle's
owner was deceased,
Denny tried to take the truck,
But it wouldn't start,
so he took off on foot.
I mean, your house just
happened to be the closest.
I'm sorry,
But look, that doesn't mean
That this guy's done
anything to val.
- Oh, yeah, you think?
Guy blew a hole
through his friend,
What do you think
he can do to val?
- Denny, come on, man.
- I know, I know.
I just need to talk to cherie.
- Then call her,
like a normal person.
You can't keep showing
up here like this.
It's weird and creepy.
You need to stop acting like
such a psychopath, okay?
- You need to listen to me.
- I already told
you, she isn't here.
- I don't think
that you understand.
- Wait, uh... I get it.
Nobody wants to get
bothered at work,
But we are here on official
bowling team business uh...
We need to find cherie
because we are playing
The hands of doom this weekend
And uh... They are top seed.
- Well, I don't know anything
About your little
bowling thing, okay?
But she's not here.
- Okay, we'll figure it out.
We'll figure it out.
- Great.
- We'll figure it out, okay?
Come on.
- Thanks. Cherie, she hates it
when I fight with her friends.
You know what? Come on.
Come here.
I knew it!
I knew it! She was here just
like a half an hour ago.
She was just here!
I knew it! I knew it!
She was just here like...
What are you...
Where are you going?
- I'm just keeping watch.
- Okay.
Oh, yes!
Got it!
Okay.
Okay.
Okay, let's go.
Alright, let's go.
- What are y'all
doing back here?
- You lied to me!
- You need to leave!
- Know what happened
to the last person
Who lied to me about cherie?
- I've had enough! You need to
leave, I'm calling the cops.
you should try being a little
More thoughtful when someone
comes looking for a loved on.
Try using your eyes.
Can't you see what's
happening here?
Someone needs your help.
- Let's go, come on!
- 911.
- Yes, I need to
report something.
- Dave?
- Just got a call.
Denny's been spotted.
- But did they spot
val? Is she okay?
- We're not sure, I'll let
you know when we do, okay?
- Let me know nothing,
I'm coming with you.
- What's going
on? Where's mom?
- Sweetheart, you
father's gonna find her.
They'll both be home soon.
They will.
It's going to be okay. Spencer?
Spencer?
- Grandma,
Can we make cookies?
We should have them ready
before mom comes home.
- Can we please, pretty please?
- Honey, that's a great idea.
Let's make cookies.
- They'll be looking
for us by now.
You know, we gotta
wait until it's dark.
It'll be easier to
move around then.
I... Oh, I knew it. I knew it.
Not one other date
in two months.
Two months!
You know what that means, right?
You get it?
This... I mean this girl,
She is beautiful,
she could get a date
With any guy, any time.
She still loves me.
She still loves me.
- Now that you know that
she still loves you,
Maybe this isn't
the right approach,
Because what you're doing,
It could drive her away.
Maybe she just needs some
space. Just for a while, hmm?
- I know my girl.
I know my girl, no.
Too much distance does not make
the heart grow fonder, okay?
No, she needs to feel loved.
- But denny, what
about the pictures?
- I mean, look
how happy we look!
Look how happy we look!
Look at it, don't we look happy?
- Yeah, you do.
- That's... That's
'cause we were.
We took this trip to california,
We called it our honeymoon,
And we would just walk
the beach every day,
And we got like, the sand
between our toes and...
The water was so sparkly.
Cherie would say it looked
like dancing angels.
And we would watch
that green flash uh...
That's...
Oh, over in the
pacific they have...
Do you know there's
like this green flash,
Like, the sun comes down,
and then it goes like, pfft!
And it flashes.
- Oh, yeah.
- You know what I mean?
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
It was at pismo beach.
Which is the clam capital
of the world, the world!
- Mm-hmm.
- We always said that
we'd go back there.
I even have the postcard
that cherie gave me.
The exact spot. And uh...
It was just the best
week of our lives.
- But denny,
She put the pictures
in the trash.
- Yeah, but you don't know that.
That could've been a
janitor or that lying nurse.
I mean...
You saw her, there
was always people
Trying to interfere
in our relationship.
Always trying to get between us.
No, we're... We're going
to go back to pismo,
You know, we'll
have our honeymoon.
I'll get a job, you know,
everything will be great.
Everything will be great.
I just... I have to... I
just have to get to her.
I have to get near her.
I have to talk to her,
get her to understand.
And that's... I mean,
that's... I think that's why
We were brought like,
together. You know what I mean?
Like fate. Fate!
- Mom!
I brought your mail in.
Mom?
Mom?
Mom?
- Yeah, he came
here with a woman.
- Um...
Was that her?
- Yeah, that's her.
- Was she okay?
- She seemed fine.
- What do you mean by fine?
Was she scared, was
she hurt, was she...
- Mark.
- How was her disposition?
- Um, it was a little
weird at first,
But she actually helped calm
down that piece of crap.
The orderlies were gonna
kick him out of here,
But she stepped in.
- Val did that?
- Yeah, good thing too.
We didn't even know he was armed
Until we saw him
leave the building.
- Did you see the
weapon clearly?
- Yes, it was a sawed-off
shotgun underneath his jacket.
- Thank you so much.
- Um... Excuse me.
She dropped this.
I'm pretty sure it's for you.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
- "mark, I love you so much.
Take care of the kids."
I wish...
I wish.
- We got units concentrating
their efforts here,
And checkpoints all
over this county.
He's not going anywhere.
And that uh... That
wife of yours is a hero.
- Yeah, val's some
kind of woman.
I mean, she don't hesitate
to put herself in harms way
To protect a complete stranger.
But I'll tell you right now,
I just want her to do enough
to protect herself, you know?
- We'll find him.
- Sergeant, you there? Over.
- Yeah, go for corbin, over.
- We need you at a new location.
Another body's been discovered.
- On my way.
Yes, yes, yes!
This is it. This is
where she has to be.
Look, the motel
address right there.
This is where she has to be.
We could just go there.
- If she is there, then what?
- Then I'll tell her how I feel.
Go to california!
I'll live happily ever after!
- And me?
- Oh, you can go.
you can go...
Why are we on empty?
Why are we on empty?
- Um...
- You said you were never
going to lie to me again.
- I... I didn't lie.
- You said you were never lie to me again.
Why are we on empty?
- I didn't lie.
- Yes, you did lie to me, you
want us to run out of gas!
You wanted us to run
out of gas, didn't you?
yes. I did want to!
I did want to run out of gas
Because I can't keep
driving you around,
Watching you hurt people!
- Drive! Drive!
You drive now!
You drive now! We need gas!
Go get the gas!
Go get the gas!
Go get the gas!
Okay, give me some
money, hurry up.
- I don't have any money.
I didn't bring anything with me.
- Okay, give me the keys.
Alright, don't move.
- No, wait!
Uh... I'll do it.
I'll... I'll talk
to him, I can do it.
- Alright, no funny
business, or people get hurt.
- Okay.
- Hey ya.
- Hey.
- I'll take one of these
And 30 on pump six.
- Alright.
- Oh my... I um...
I think I left my
wallet at home.
Oh, duh.
Oh jeez, you know what?
I am right on empty,
I only live five
miles from here,
But I don't think I
have enough to get home.
I hate to ask this,
but is there any way
You can spot me the gas?
I'll go home and be
back in 15 minutes.
- Listen lady, this is a gas
station, it's not a bank.
- What's your name, jimmy?
Jimmy...
I got two little kids at home
And I need to get back or
they're gonna be scared.
- What do you want
me to do here?
You give me money,
I give you gas.
That's how this works.
- Jim...
I want you to take a long
hard look at yourself, hmm?
- Are you, like,
serious right now?
- Mmm. Yeah, you see this guy?
Look, are you looking at him?
- Yeah.
- Look at him.
- Yeah, okay.
- Look at him.
- Okay.
- Now, you tell me.
Is he going to be a
pompous jerk today,
Or is he going to
do something good?
Something special to help a mom
Get home to her two kids
before they are scared.
okay, okay, fine.
Fine, I'll put 30
on pump six, happy?
- Merry christmas.
- We broke up a few weeks ago.
Denny's always been troubled.
His mom ran out on
him and his brother,
And his dad was really abusive.
You know, he was in and
out of foster care...
And he ended up at
an all boys' home.
When he joined the army,
It only lasted a few months
Before he was
dishonourably discharged.
There was an incident.
A violent incident between
him and another serviceman.
- Your denny's girl, huh?
- Used to be.
- You're the husband?
- Yep.
- I hate him too, you know?
Biggest mistake of my life.
- Yep.
- His mom abandoned him,
And his dad used to beat him,
And then he was in the
foster-care system,
And then he joined the army,
and that was a disaster.
- I don't care.
He killed your mom.
Now he's driving
around somewhere
With a gun to my wife's head.
- I'm sorry.
- How'd you end up
with a guy like that?
- He wasn't always like that.
He looked at me like no one
ever looked at me before.
Do you know what it's like
to be loved like that?
To be needed like that?
- Hey, mark, you two
can't be talking.
We got a few more
questions for you anyways.
- Right.
I am sorry about your mother.
I'm sorry.
Yeah.
- If you find him, are
you going to hurt him?
- Not if we don't have to.
- I might know how to help.
- Do you know where he's going?
- No.
But he'll come for me.
He always does.
- She lives right there.
I bet she's in there right now.
- You can't just March right
in there with a shotgun.
- Keys?
Hello?
Hello?
- Cherie, it's me, it's denny.
- Denny, hi.
It's good to hear your voice.
How are you, how are you doing?
- I'm uh...
I'm really good.
I'm just... I've just been
thinking about you so much.
- Yeah?
I've been thinking
about you too.
- Really?
Ah. Oh man.
Um...
- Denny?
- No, I just...
I have so much I want to say.
- Me too.
Why don't we get
together and talk?
I miss you.
- Oh god, it feels really
good to hear you say that.
I um... I have this trip planned
And you're gonna like it.
It's our favourite place
in the whole world.
- Sounds really good, denny.
- You know the one, right?
Come on, let me hear
you say it.
Come on.
Please let me just
hear you say it.
- Yeah, why don't we...
Why don't we get together
And we can talk travel plans?
Where are you?
I'll come get you.
- Cherie, you know
I love you, right?
- I know you do.
Where are you?
- You still love me, right?
- Of course.
Just tell me where you are.
Line's dead.
- Got it.
- He's on this block.
Everybody downstairs now!
Go, go, go!
- Let's go.
- Can I get you anything else?
- No, thanks.
- What chapter are you on?
- Chapter 2.
He just cut down
the cherry tree.
- Oh yeah, I remember that.
You want to read to me?
- I did not cut down
that cherry tree.
- Good job. Alright...
- I'm sorry.
- I don't need your pity.
It just if she
doesn't love me...
What's the point?
And I'm not going
back in a cell.
I've done that.
I'd rather die here on
the streets just fighting.
This is it.
There is nothing left for me.
- Mark and me went
on a honeymoon.
To victoria island.
It was so elegant.
European almost.
We went sailing during the day
And ate ice cream walking
along the harbour at night.
The way he looked at me...
As if time stopped
just for the two of us.
But that was a long time ago
Before...
Kids and jobs and a mortgage.
- Life.
- It gets in the way.
You forget...
What you love and why even if...
Even if every day, it's standing
Right in front of
you when you wake up.
For christmas...
I thought I could get
mark something that would
Make him remember...
How he used to look at me.
How precious time is, how
it shouldn't be wasted.
- What did you get him?
- A watch.
- Denny, I don't even know if
my husband loves me anymore,
But I do know that all I want,
All I want right now
Is to get home to
him and my boys.
- You do what I say for just
a little while longer, and...
I promise
I'll take you home.
Alright?
- Okay.
Okay.
- Alright, drive.
- Where are we going?
- It's right up here.
Just keep going.
Come on.
Hey.
- Uncle denny!
- What's up, sport?
How you been?
- You should've me
at my last game,
Knocked out two homers!
- Oh, I'm sorry I missed it.
- You gotta come around more.
- Yeah, I'll try, bud.
- Come on in.
- Well, shoot,
If it ain't little brother.
- Hey, jesse.
- Hey, nash, why don't you
skedaddle for a little bit?
Go play video
games in your room.
- Yeah.
- See you, bud.
- Well, you uh...
You look like crap.
What's been going on with you?
Usual.
- Who's the lucky lady?
- Oh, it's my friend, val.
- Val.
Aren't you a little old
to be with this one?
- We're just friends.
- You get a job yet, denny?
Kidding, I know that's
never going to happen.
Well, you're lucky
you're here when you are,
Because carolee is
still at the grocer's,
So whatever you want, why
don't you go and spit it out
Before she gets back?
What do you need?
Did you get her pregnant?
- I said it's not like that.
- Yeah, I figured.
I mean, look at him.
- I need some
help. I need a car.
- Well, I've had it,
that's a new one.
Oh, boy.
- What in the hell
is he doing here?
- Trying to jack my new car.
- Ha! That's rich.
What's he want it for?
Another trip to
the clam capital?
that's really unnecessary.
- Yeah? And who are you?
The next hussy?
- I don't really have
anywhere else to go.
You're kind of my
only family, um...
- Hey, hey, hey.
Yeah, I mean, we're
family, right?
We're family?:
Yeah, we're family.
- So... Alright.
To family.
Yeah.
here you go.
Here you go, take it,
take it. Denny, take it.
- Take 'em!
Oh!
No, I'm serious this time,
you can have time, really,
Take them, take them.
Alright, that was it.
I promise I was just
Playing around with
you. Take it, please.
You and me, we ain't family,
And we ain't ever been a family.
- Mm-hmm.
- That's why we grew up
In the fosters.
Yeah. Look, take this
fiver, and get out of here.
that's
more than you deserve, denny.
You're a sinkhole.
You can't help but
get sucked down,
And you pull anybody
close on down with you.
You'll see.
Just like when you got
kicked out of juvie,
Or when you ran out of the army.
You come in here with
your little peashooter
And your tail between your legs
and you try to sink us too?
Uh-uh.
Now get out.
Get out of my house
Before I have jesse
whip your ass again!
- You two ought to be
ashamed of yourselves.
- Girl you better
watch who you're...
- You watch it! This
man, he is not perfect,
I know that, and so do you, but
dragging him through the mud
For your own amusement?
That's... That's just wrong.
He's your family.
Doesn't that mean
anything to you?
let's just go.
Denny...
- I have no family here.
- See you later, little brother.
- Denny?
Denny, you're not coming?
- No.
- Denny, don't do anything...
- You and your uh...
Your husband, I...
I hope it works out.
- Denny.
you can go home now.
Just go home.
answer the phone.
- What?
- Answer the phone.
- Okay, fine, I'll get it.
- Get it.
- Hey.
- Where's the remote?
- I don't know.
Hello?
Oh damn, yeah, we've seen him.
Why, what he'd do this time?
No!
- All I want is a ride.
All I want is a ride.
All I wanted was a ride!
That's all you had to do
Was give me a ride!
- Easy, easy, easy.
- You see me, you see me?
All I ever wanted was a ride.
- No!
- Just a little bit of help,
That's all I ever wanted.

- Dad!
- No!
- Hey, come on, it's
okay. It's alright.
- Denny...
- Sorry, sport.
- Let's go.

Should've gone home to 'em.

Over at his brother's house.
It's not far from here.
Come on, let's go.

The love you want from cherie,

You have to start being the
man that she wants you to be.

her to california
To see the flash of
green in the pacific
And the sand between your toes.
Okay?

Look away from me!

back. Don't move!
