Furies (2024) s01e05 Episode Script

1
[moody, dramatic music playing]
[thunder rumbling]
[Lyna] Justice doesn't exist
in the underworld.
The Fury doesn't serve justice.
She punishes.
The only law in the underworld
is the law of retaliation.
[thunderclap]
[groans faintly]
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
[inhales]
And the whole body for a betrayal.
He who disobeys, pays his pound of flesh.
- A criminal lives and dies for honor.
- [alarm buzzing]
And there's nothing honorable
about being in a cage.
[thunderclap]
Imprisonment is the weapon of the weak.
[moody, dramatic music continues]
A weapon unworthy of the underworld.
[door slam echoes]
Better death than prison.
Yet, it was to the confines of a cell
that Selma condemned her brother.
Locked away in here
for 20 years, in secret.
Will he recognize me?
Will he even want to see me?
What will I say to him?
Something like
Hello.
[music becomes quiet]
I'm Lyna.
Your daughter.
[chuckles] Hello, my love.
[music builds to a climax]
[music fades]
[metallic door slams]
- Do you want to
- You want
[both chuckle]
- Go on, I
- Oh no
[both chuckle]
[Lyna chuckles]
It's not easy, huh?
What's the best way
to get to know each other?
Asking, uh,
"What's your absolute favorite meal?"
"Favorite soccer team?" [chuckles]
"Favorite ice cream flavor?"
Pizza, PSG, pistachio. The three Ps.
Same here.
[both chuckle]
Like father, like daughter.
And, um,
I had I had a bunch of questions,
but my mind is just
We'll take our time.
Lots of catching up, right?
Mm.
You were as tall as that stool
last time we met.
[chuckles]
I haven't grown much since, apparently.
No, but you've changed.
You look a lot like your mom.
[dramatic music playing]
Forgive me.
[sighing]
I've been here for too damn long.
- Forgot how to be human.
- Mm.
- I got carried away.
- Huh.
I sent a photo to the Guerrabs'.
To me, really?
The last one I had.
They never mentioned?
[sighs]
I can't be mad at them.
I can.
[Driss sighs]
The way you just tilted your head,
its oval shape,
even that little mole on your nose.
That's her.
All of it.
Except for that.
Even as a kid, you were a daredevil.
You had to fall down to see if it hurt.
But you'd always get up again.
Tell me about you.
[dramatic music continues]
[sighs]
I show up here with a bunch
of things to tell you
so you'll know who I am, you know?
[sniffs]
Turns out I don't even know
where to begin. It's so stupid.
From the beginning, my love.
[tense music playing]
Tell me what you did last week.
We'll see where it takes us.
Oh man, last week?
It wasn't the best.
7 DAYS EARLIER
[music intensifies]
[music becomes ominous]
- Dating a cop? Really?
- [music stops]
[chuckles]
Your grandma woulda
had a heart attack.
Yeah, Selma also wasn't happy about it.
Did she let him live?
Mm-hmm.
What was he doing in jail?
He's not a dirty cop, is he?
No.
Mm, he's in trouble
because he fell in love with me.
Men close to The Fury always
have a bit of a hard time, you know?
- But I tried to protect Elie.
- [camera shutter clicks]
[dramatic music playing]
[buzzer rings]
[metal door sliding]
[door shuts]
[music becomes tense]
[music intensifies]
[music becomes quiet and mysterious]
[typing on cell phone]
TO LYNA: WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
FOR HIM TO GET STABBED, BITCH?
- [message send alert]
- [scoffs]
- [girl giggling]
- [rock music playing]
Thomas?
Thomas, I'm home.
Okay, okay, don't yell.
I'm here, I'm here.
You're all dressed up,
what's gotten into you?
You look cute.
My birthday was three weeks ago.
- What's going on?
- Nothing special.
[chuckles]
Nice, she took her shoes off
before stepping on the parquet floor.
- Shhh.
- I like that. Who is this girl?
- Is she a stranger you picked up?
- Cut it out. You're annoying.
- She's a stranger?
- Yeah, but I didn't pick her up.
In fact, she picked me up.
- Can I see her?
- No, no, don't start.
- What? The detective stuff?
- No, worse, the big sister stuff.
- Fine, sounds good. No interrogation.
- No interrogation.
- I'll just have a little look.
- Wait! Stop! Wait!
- It
- [rock music stops]
Hello.
["How Can I" by Ian Moore playing]
I helped myself. [giggles]
[gun clicks]
[Thomas]
Lyna, this is my annoying big sister.
Sis, this is Lyna, my lifesaver.
[giggles]
Showing up at a cop's house
is not reasonable.
At all.
But hey, that's a compliment.
No one too reasonable changes the world.
- Why did he say
- "My lifesaver"?
Yeah. I walk out of class, I see my bike,
and it's completely stripped.
No seat, no wheels,
it was pretty much gone.
[inhaling]
At least the bike lock was there. [scoffs]
- Where are the police when you need them?
- [Thomas chuckles]
- That's when Lyna showed up.
- [Lyna chuckles]
With her car.
A sporty, powerful, amazing car.
You didn't think that was weird?
You looked so lost.
[both chuckle]
I felt bad for him.
And then we just hit it off.
[glass rattles]
- Oh, I'm sorry, I
- ["How Can I" stops playing]
[tense music playing]
Damn it.
[Lyna] Thomas is nice.
He went to get some ice.
Wine stains suck, but nothing like blood.
Move.
[Thomas whistling]
Your brother adores you, you know?
You're his hero.
He told me about your parents, so sad.
Then I remembered you're a real scumbag.
Okay, fine.
Enough with your show of strength.
Elie?
He gets out. Innocent.
An unfortunate administrative error.
- It's not that simple.
- It's not?
I'm going out tonight, with Thomas.
I get to choose where.
We might get back late,
and Thomas might not come back at all.
[Thomas whistling]
[rock music playing]
You okay?
I I got a call from work.
[chuckles]
Let's meet up another time.
Okay. [chuckles]
[distant siren blaring]
[lively, bluesy music playing]
[Driss] And did it work?
Yep.
[buzzer rings]
[panting]
[door thuds]
Would you do it?
[music stops]
Her brother, would you do it?
Would you go after him?
No. No, of course not.
Lyna.
Look at me.
Would you have done it?
Maybe, yeah.
[moody music playing]
I had to do something for Elie.
But I'm not like that, y'know? It's just
It was the best move I could come up with.
And all I wanted was to go back
to who I was before.
[moody music continues]
Say something, Elie, please.
- So you're involved in all this.
- No questions, is that possible?
It wasn't a question.
If I'd asked the right questions when you
got out of prison, we wouldn't be here.
[shudders]
What's that?
Did you get that
when you went to see your mother?
Or from the guy with the tattoos?
I was an idiot.
I made bad decisions. I messed up, I know.
I thought that
[sniffles]
I don't know, that [sniffles]
I was strong and didn't need anybody.
But I love you.
And I need you.
I don't know if this can work,
but I need to believe it will.
Do you think it's still possible?
[music fades]
[shudders]
No questions, okay,
but no more lies, Lyna, please.
[exhales deeply]
["Live Tonight" by Trev playing]
[Lyna gasps]
I've got it, don't you see? ♪
I've got everything you need
Our thing ♪
I like him.
You're lucky to have found him.
Your hands, come here.
You see this line here?
That's your fate line.
I was born without one.
So, when I turned 15,
I took my father's razor,
and I drew this one.
To become the master of my fate.
You're on the outside,
but are you free?
- If my heart stops beating
- [bleeping]
everything I know
about the underworld gets out.
[dramatic music playing]
[camera shutter clicking sound]
[bleeping]
Quite the life insurance.
Yeah. That's what I thought too.
[music fades]
4 DAYS EARLIER
["Live Tonight" by Trev playing]
[Lyna] For a moment, I thought
I could leave it all behind me.
You've been here for three days, and my
kitchen's already a mess. You know what?
You love this mess, right?
- I love this mess. Coffee?
- Yup.
You're still wearing that?
Of course I am. I told you to get one.
But you wanted a mug.
Now you see me looking stylish
and you're jealous.
[chuckles]
[cell phone rings]
[rock music fades]
Yeah.
Uh well, I'm supposed to be off today.
Okay, I'll take care of it.
Of course. Okay.
Duty calls, babe?
Just my boss being, uh, well, a boss.
A little background check,
should be quick.
Watch out, your webcam is on.
[chuckles]
[computer bleeping]
LAST NAME - FIRST NAME - SEARCH
Oh hello, Big Brother.
That's the guy's whole life.
Yeah, it's all in there.
So
Let's see, we've got his
personal and criminal records,
tax info, food allergies?
[chuckles] Yeah, the prison
cafeteria files, that's why.
[dramatic music playing]
INCARCERATIONS
HAUTS DE SEINE PRISON
PARIS LA SANTÉ PRISON
[Driss] So, that's how you did it.
That's how you found me.
I knew you were out there somewhere.
I couldn't help it. I had to see you.
[Driss] I'm sorry, you know?
You try to fix everything [inhales]
and I screw it up, as usual.
But Dad
[sighs] I've done some bad things,
then you called me "Papa"
and everything changed.
[breathing deeply]
You know, I wanted a different life
for us. A life of our own.
Far from the underworld,
The Godfathers, my sister.
[music becomes quiet and mysterious]
I made bad decisions.
But you, tell me more.
ORSO: ARE YOU OKAY?? WHERE ARE YOU??
I NEED TO TALK TO YOU
Yeah, well,
that wasn't a very good decision.
Two guys at the same time?
Well, not at the same time.
- Let's say that's, um
- That's what?
Not very smart?
- Horrible?
- Human.
[officer] Give me your hands.
[mysterious music continues]
Before I was with your mother,
I was engaged, I was very much in love.
What made you choose her?
I didn't have to choose.
Kahina showed up
and she swept everything away.
[chuckles]
I didn't really have to choose either.
2 DAYS EARLIER
[music becomes ominous]
SURNAME: LE GALL
FIRST NAME(S): NILS
It's Elie. Can you do me a favor?
An urgent ballistic analysis.
Thanks.
[ominous music continues]
[text alert]
[Mr. Parques, chuckling] Adorable.
[text alert]
[moody, dramatic music playing]
- [bird chirping]
- [music fades out]
[Mr. Parques] The odds of being hit
by lightning are one in a million.
- But I happened to be hit three times.
- [distant thunder rumbling]
Love strikes, like lightning.
It's an accident
that always leaves a mark.
[ominous music playing]
I didn't come here to talk about poetry.
Yet, you came here and told me "Lyna ran
away. I need you to hunt her like prey."
An alexandrine couplet.
- Betrayal is poetic in some way.
- [music fades out]
It's a weapon reserved
for your closest relationships.
This ain't betrayal.
I wonder what your boss
would say about that.
You don't betray friends,
you save them from themselves.
And if you don't wanna be hit
by lightning, stop having picnics outside.
And another thing. Some advice for you.
Don't fuck me over.
Mm.
- The kid dies, and everyone's a winner.
- [chuckles]
- [tense music playing]
- [distant thunder rumbling]
[dramatic music continues]
[Lyna] After Orso,
I should've suspected
he would come for me.
I didn't think he was capable
of pulling a hit in the middle of Paris.
[music intensifies]
[music fades]
[muted audio] Maybe we should
get some croissants too?
You know what? I'm not that hungry.
[echoing thud]
- [normal audio] Uh, can we have sugar?
- No problem.
- You want some sugar? No?
- No. Thanks.
[Elie] Now we've got all these bookstores,
coffee shops Thank you, gentrification.
[tense music playing]
[muted audio] It's all changing,
you know, so fast.
[Elie continues chattering indistinctly]
[music intensifies]
[music softens]
[footsteps]
[music stops]
[ominous, dramatic music playing]
[gunfire]
[man screams]
[people scream]
[grunts]
[grunts]
[motorcycle engine revs]
[rapid gunfire]
[grunts]
[engine shuts off]
[music fades]
[panting]
[dramatic sting]
[grunts]
[panting]
- [tense, dramatic music playing]
- [rapid gunfire]
[gun clicks]
[gun clicks]
[music fades]
[Lyna panting]
[whistling]
[mysterious music playing]
[music fades]
[panting]
What the hell was that?
Why did they come for me?
Not even a thank you?
You weren't protecting me,
just your shitty little secrets.
[bleeping]
Forty-eight beats per minute?
Well, that's not possible.
You're a nervous wreck,
you're at least at 150.
Who could be at 48 BPM?
Oh, well, me.
How did
[Selma] You want me to explain
how I hacked your watch?
It's gonna be long and boring,
but, oh well. Okay, so the first step is
Since when?
Two hours
after your heroic departure, I'd say.
Yeah, give or take.
You could've been done with me
and given Parques a free pass.
So, why did you let me live?
The world would be less
interesting without you.
[dramatic music playing]
But for your own good and for mine,
you're going away, very far. For good.
With time, training and experience,
you would've made an excellent Fury.
Maybe even better than me,
but that remains to be seen.
Here.
[music fades]
I'm gonna miss ya.
- No!
- [fist thuds]
You can't trust her.
Selma's moves are always deliberate.
She took risks for me.
She had nothing to gain from it.
She definitely has something
to gain from it.
Do you know something she doesn't?
[mysterious music playing]
Look at me.
If you tell her, you're dead.
Do you understand?
- Just think. Do you understand?
- Stop!
[exhales] I worry about you, that's all.
She does too.
It's a bit late for that.
- It's her fault the Guerrabs are dead.
- [mysterious, dramatic music playing]
When they heard that Selma
wanted to reclaim her heir,
they panicked.
They wanted a different future for you.
But no one can oppose The Fury.
Embezzling The Godfathers' money
and stealing the Bible
of the Six for protection,
that was a means to get
out of the underworld.
They must've partnered
with the wrong person.
A traitor who decided to get rid of them.
[gun blast]
I'm sorry,
but Selma's the one who set it all off.
Try to remember.
Besides Parques, what did you talk about?
Take care of yourself, kiddo, okay?
Promise?
[mysterious, dramatic music continues]
[Selma clears throat]
[music fades]
It's far.
Yeah.
I don't even
speak the language. [chuckles]
I'm sure you'll learn.
It could get tedious there, stay busy.
[music stops]
[faint, mysterious music playing]
Hey. Forgetting something?
The message you found
that night at Fehim's, what was it?
You see?
PLAN THE WEAPON DELIVERY.
UNMARKED TRUCK. A1
[Selma] I'm talking to you.
Um
It was a delivery for The Duke.
After Fehim's archive,
this is where he'll be hitting next.
No.
This is where I'll kill him.
[music becomes intense and ominous]
[Driss] Okay, so she's going there.
And after that, who did she talk to?
Answer me, who did she talk to?
I don't know.
[Driss] Something else happened, right?
Something you're not telling me.
- Where's my cell phone?
- Here.
Give it to me, I have to call The Fixer.
MISSED CALL
SURGEON HERPOUX - CLINIC - PAPOU
You shouldn't be here.
They're waiting for you
for an operation, or an exam
Give it to me.
Goodbye.
[Lyna sighs]
[Driss] Your mother had that same look
when she was hiding something from me.
That was all.
I mean it.
Did she gather a team?
Prepare her counterattack?
- The Olympus, were they informed?
- I don't know.
- [sighs]
- Yeah, probably.
But I had more important things
to settle before I left.
- [door opens and closes]
- [music stops]
[footsteps approaching]
Are you okay?
- Sorry, Elie, I
- I'm writing a report, come on.
- No.
- I didn't ask. That's our deal.
No questions, that's what you want.
We can leave, the two of us. Far away.
[tense musical flourish]
Look at you.
[dramatic music playing]
You have a gun on you?
I'm doing this for the Lyna
I fell in love with.
[music intensifies]
- Lyna!
- [gasping]
Lyna!
I'm sorry!
- Lyna!
- [music becomes melancholic]
You shouldn't have gone back to see him.
- And you shouldn't have come here.
- [music fades]
You should be far away.
I had to meet you before leaving.
I came here to meet my father
and to say goodbye to him.
Your time's up, ma'am. It's over.
I still have an hour.
Lyna.
You should leave.
[ominous music playing]
Come on. [grunts]
Is this what you're looking for?
I've been thinking it over
What are the chances that all the guards'
uniforms are freshly washed the same day?
And that all the prisoners, except you,
have brand new sneakers?
Your prison looks like a staged set,
a charming mise-en-scène.
But there are some mistakes.
Small details.
[tense music fades]
There's another guy I met
who likes mise-en-scènes.
Masks, spectacular entrances
[beeping]
He hit me and then left me
in the middle of a fire.
[clicking]
Even your guns are fake.
Lyna.
[sighs]
It wasn't meant to go this way.
You are my daughter, that's for sure.
So Darius embezzled
The Godfathers' money for you?
And you killed him?
[gun blast]
- Yeah.
- [music intensifies]
But that's a discussion
we'll have another time.
Thanks to you,
I'm one step ahead of Selma.
The Fury dies today.
Goodbye, my love.
She stays alive.
[buzzer ringing]
[ominous, tense music playing]
[ringing continues]
You guys are in deep shit, you hear me?
You don't realize it yet, but you are.
- Come here!
- [Lyna grunts]
[intense, dramatic music playing]
[screaming]
- [dramatic action music playing]
- [people grunting]
[screams]
[man grunts]

[electrical zapping]
[electrical zapping]
[grunts]
[groans]
[screams]
[buzzer ringing]
[dramatic action music stops]
I'm sick of this shitty town. Damn it.
Nothing ever happens.
Yep.
For sure.
[Lyna pants]
[gasping]
Cell phone.
- Hm?
- What?
What are you doing?
[tense music playing]
[cell phone rings and connects]
- Selma! Selma!
- [Selma] I don't have time.
I do not have time.
It's an ambush! Driss has been getting
out of the prison! He's the masked man!
He knows you're waiting for him,
he's coming to kill you.
- Selma!
- [static on phone]
Damn it, can you hear me?
[tense music playing]
[bleeping]
[heart beating over bleeping]
[heartbeat and bleeping speed up]
[dramatic music playing]
Scooter.
- Really?
- Yeah, really.
Thanks!
[bleeping continues]
[scooter engine revs]
[heartbeat and bleeping slow down]
[heartbeat flatlines]
[music fades]
[ominous music playing]
[breathing heavily]
[music fades]
[tense music playing]
[Mr. Parques sighs]
Okay?
Now you get me?
[snickers]
[keys rattling]
[lock clicks]
[Mr. Parques] Shhh.
[Mr. Parques tuts]
[pants and coughs]
[melodic, dramatic music playing]
Now you know who you belong to.
[music intensifies]
[music continues]
[music fades]
