No Escape (2023) s01e05 Episode Script

Ketamine

- Everything that went down
in Bali Keys is my fault.
- Skipper, there's
a boat following us.
- Even at full throttle,
we can't outrun them.
- There's an opening!
- Shit,
I don't think we're gonna fit.
[boat crashing]
[people yelling]
- Everybody down.
Guys, stay quiet.
- Where is Denny's
fucking place?
[grunts]
A weak fucking hypocrite.
- Joe, you're right.
I am weak.
Pack your shit up.
Get off my boat.
- Someone has to tell Lana
that there are certain things
you can't outrun.
To prove to you
that I'm on your side,
I'm not gonna show this photo
to the Australian police.
- Why am I the only one
who keeps having these--
these nightmares
about what we did?
[dramatic music]
- We could be heading
right into a tropical storm.
- What choice do I have,
wait here
for them to come back
and slit our throats?

- Gotta stem the flood.
- Give him the signal.
- [grunting]
- [shouts]

- I couldn't stop it.
I'm sorry.
They're all dead.
Don't you lock the door ♪
- Oh, God.
[laughter]
Oh, wow.
- She's bringing it behind.
- Here, here, here, here.
- Oh, no.
- Oh, no. Oh, wonderful, Kitty.
Well done.
- I didn't know you could cook.
- [laughs]
- Well, I can't.
- It looks so good.
- Right.
- Ah-ah-ah-ah.
- Oh, I wish it could be ♪
- OK.
- Christmas every day ♪
- Right.
[clears throat]
- Let the bells ♪
- We're a family, right?
And we share our sins together.
[music distorts]
Confess, Kitty.
[ominous music]

- Let go of me.
- Kitty, confess.
- Let go!
- Confess!
- [panting]
[boat creaking]

[dramatic music]

[exhales sharply]

- You OK?
- Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I'm fine.
- You sure?
- Mm.
[banging on door]
[person speaks indistinctly]
- One sec.
- Shell!
[banging continues]
- Hey. Hey.
- Hey.
- I'm--I gotta--
Shell, I was--
I'm sorry, Shell.
- For what?
- This bad shit,
it's all my fault.
I--I--you know, I deserve it.
- You don't, Shell.
You're a good person.
- How'd he get like this?
- You are a good person.
- Well, we--
we were celebrating.
[laughs]
- Celebrating what?
[body thuds]
- Oh.
- Just being alive.
- Whilst you're on watch?
Go. Go, go, go, go.
- All right. All right.
Hey.
[knocking]
Heinrich, wake up.
- Denny.
Denny.
- [moans]
- Hey.
I'm gonna take that.
Do you want some water?
You OK?
- Oh.
- Do you want to get up?
- Helen.
Helen, baby.
- Oh, come on.
Come on.
[both groan]
- I should have just
gotten you a cat
because you always
wanted a fucking cat--
- Hey, whoa, whoa.
Hey, hey, hey.
- Kitty--Kitty, I'm--
Kitty, I'm sorry.
- Come on.
All right, taxi for one.
Come on.
- Where are we going?
- We're going to bed.
- Oh.
- [singing in German]

Hey! Yeah.
[singing continues]
[tense music]

Come on.
[singing continues]
And again.
[singing continues]

- What's he on about?
What does that mean?
- That we're fucked, Lana.
- Four knots.
- Is that good?
- No wind.
We can't sail.
- Because
karma stole our wind.
- Just stop it
with the karma bullshit
that Joe was banging on
about, please.
- No.
No, Kitty.
It wants us.
You're cursed.
- This is the curse, is it?
What the hell?
- It's for my knee.
- And Aaron has a bad knee,
too, does he?
- How much did Aaron have?
- We're way off course.
What the hell was he doing?
- We're being chased, Shell.
He--he wanted to put them
off the scent.
- But using most of the fuel
going in the wrong direction.
What the fuck, Aaron?
- He got us away, didn't he?
- Away from where?
How are we supposed
to get to Palau now?
We're stranded 200 miles
from any land.
- We'll use the last
of the fuel to find some wind.
- It's too risky.
We could be left out here,
stranded with nothing.
We should wait for the wind,
and it'll give us some time
to check the patch.
- Wait to get caught?
That's a bad idea.
- All our ideas are bad.
- That's what
we're doing, Denny.
If Aaron wakes up
and decides to do
something different, fine.
Until then,
we're doing it my way.
[engine shuts off]
- Fine
Captain.
[dramatic music]

- No more horse tranquilizer.
- Hey.
Hey, I need that.

[person breathing heavily]

[ominous music]
[Florence & the Machine's
"Prayer Factory"]

- All the things
that I ran from ♪
I now bring as close
to me as I can ♪
Ripping hotel sheets
with gritted teeth ♪
My montage of lost things ♪
My shiny ♪
Trinkets of grief ♪

[boat creaking]
- I need to check the weather.
- Right.
- Oh, I--I know the water
and food supplies
are running low,
but could you check,
see exactly how low?
[boat creaking]
[tense music]
- Confess, Kitty.
Kitty, confess!

[eerie music]

- How's the patch looking?
- It's not pretty,
but it should hold.
- Denny, what are we doing?
- What do you mean?
- I thought we had a plan.
- We do.
I'm just worried about Aaron.
This is not good.
- He's just drunk.
He'll be fine.
- He's an addict, Lana.
Trust me.
When he falls off the wagon,
things get very bad very fast.
- That's all the more reason
to get away from him.
When we get to Palau,
and we sell the diamonds--
I mean, he treats you
like shit, anyway.
[sharp bang]
- He's still my brother.
I owe him.
You understand, don't you?
[solemn music]
Is she OK?

- I don't know.
You can ask her yourself.

- It's a bit early.
- Never too early.
- [chuckles]
Is everything OK?
I won't tell Shell
if you don't.
- I think we're both
on Lana's shit list.
- Mm.
- What, do you want me to
apologize for voting you off?
- No, hey, it's fine.
No hard feelings.
- Since we're
already in trouble--hold that.
- bit more than that.
- Just for starters.
- [laughs]
[boat creaking]
[door clicks shut]
[objects clattering]
[suspenseful music]

[object thuds]

[sharp bang]

- Hello?
[sharp bang]

[door banging, creaking]

[lock clicking]

- [whispering] Don't scream.
- After Palau,
after what happened
We decided to head
straight home.
[sighs] But the terrorists
must have been tracking us
all the way
from the Philippines.
By the time
we spotted them, we--
[sighs]
We couldn't outrun them.
[sighs]
And
you know, Aaron
Well, he told everyone to hide
while he got the tender ready.
But they slit his throat before
he could get there, so
Then they searched the boat
and found the others.
I mean, I was
a fucking coward, Lana.
I stayed hidden,
even when I heard the shots.
And I knew they must
all be dead.
I justhid.
They had so many guns.
I just--
[sighs]
[dramatic music]
And then when I came up,
the
boat was empty.

All the bodies
were in the water, and
there was blood on the deck,
in the cabin.
And I just
gunned it of there.
'Cause--

I don't know.
I just took the tender
in case they came back.

Fuck.
Keeps going round in my head.
Should I have
done something or--
I don't know.
There were too many of them.
[sighs]

I'm sorry, Lana.
I'm sorry I couldn't save her.

- [moans]
I--
I think I need--
I think I need to go.
I think--

- No, no.
- Wait. Wait.
- You need to stay here.
- Look, I just need to talk
to her real quick, OK?
She's upset.
Please.
- [exhales sharply]
- Hey, wait.
- [breathing heavily]

[camera shutter snaps]
- Here she is. Here she is.
[reporters clamoring]
- Are you connected
to the boat?
- What happened to the rest?
Are you the only survivor?
- Can I just get one quote?
Miss! Miss!
[clamor continues]
- Hey, Lana.
Lana.
It's all right.
Just--just breathe, yeah?
It's OK, all right?
Just--come on.
Just put--put your hands
on the ground.
- [exhales heavily]
- Just feel the ground.
That's it.
Just feel the ground.
- Oh.
- Shh, it's OK.
Breathe in.
Breathe in.
Come on.
It's OK.
- [breathing heavily]
- It's OK.
- Oh, Joseph, he was--
he was right.
He was right.
What?
How did you get here?
- After Shell dropped me off
at the village,
I swung back over,
and I hid here in the store.
- You're a fucking nut.
- Hey, hey.
You can't tell them I'm here.
- Yeah, I can. I have to.
- They'll fucking kill me.
Aaron, he's a psychopath.
If you tell him I'm here
I'm dead.
- Don't be stupid.
He's not gonna hurt you.
- Are you sure about that?
[boat creaking]
- OK, there's no one here.
You're gonna have
to hide in my cabin.
Come on.
Come on.
Quick, quick, quick.

- Aah!
- Shell.
Hey--
- What are you doing?
- You know, I couldn't convince
them to rig the sails, but
maybe they'll listen
to you, Captain.
- [laughing]
- For God's sakes, Kitty.
- [slurring]
Oh, come on.
Gimme it.
[laughs]
Gimme it.
- Go on.
- [sighs] Kitty, stop this.
- Whoo!
- Come on.
Come on, all work, no play
makes you so neggy.
Come on, Shell.
Join in.
- Captain.
Captain.
- Come on.
- Captain. Captain.
- Whoo!
- Come on, Shell.
We've got nothing else to do
now we're stranded.

[cheers, laughter]
- Yeah!
- Whoo!

[laughter]

- Hey!
- Ah!
- Hey!

[dull thumping]
[muffled shouting]
- [snoring]
[boat creaking]
[grunts]
[muffled shouting]
[groans]
[breathes deeply]
- Yeah!
[muffled shouting]
- There's no way that you're
gonna make it to Palau
without Aaron seeing you.
- I'm really sorry to put you
in this position.
- What did you think
was gonna happen?
- Maybe I wasn't
really thinking.
- Why are you actually here?
- I came back for you.
I'm sorry.
I was--I was worried about you.
You're just not safe
with these people.
- What are you talking about?
- They don't care about
anyone but themselves.
But you're different.
You're a good person.
- Where did you get that idea?
[scoffs]
- The tragedy is,
you can't even see it.
[tense music]

I shouldn't have come here.

I know I have no right
to ask you to help me.
But you're helping me
right now,
which shows
that I was right about you.

- Whoo! Whoo!

[shout echoing]

- [moaning]
[echoing]
- Hey.
- Hey.
- You OK?
- Yeah, I'm fucking great.
- [chuckles]
- Hello.
- [laughs]
- [laughs]
- How about you?
- Oh, no.
No.
- We shouldn't leave
anyone out.
[laughter]
Oh, yes.
Fucking kiss him.
Oh! With tongues too.
With tongues.
- Doesn't mean anything.
[laughter]
- OK.
OK.
Oh, there was tongue,
believe me.
- Come on. Come on.
Honey.
- So what?
- Hey.
[grunts]
- Yeah?
- That needed to happen.
[laughs]
- [groaning]
- Mm. My bedtime, I think.
- [chuckles]
- [groans]
- Turn the music off.
Aaron's gonna be cranky enough
when he wakes up.
- [grunting]

[thudding]
- [groans]
[grunts]
[door clicks shut]
[knocking]
[knocking]
- Fuck.
- He's here?
- Yeah. Hide behind the door.
Get behind the door,
quick, quick, quick.
- Hey, I think
I need backup up there.
They're all out of control.
- Yeah, well, you're an adult,
so I'm sure you
can handle it yourself.
- I am sorry about earlier.
I just got a bit
freaked out by Aaron.
- Yeah, sure.
It's fine.
- It's just, when he needs me,
I don't know if I can just
leave him, you know?
Come here, you.
I do want to be with you, Lana.
- Look, I--
- [chuckles]
- What?
- You are still with me,
aren't you?
- Yeah.
Yeah.
- I know it's complicated,
but I do need to know
If you still got my back.
- Of course.
I just think Aaron's gonna
wake up in a minute,
so I don't think
we should risk anything.
- You're tired?
- Yeah.
- Me too.
- Tired.
Yeah.
OK.
I'm gonna go to bed.
- Good night.
- Night.
Good night.
[door clicks shut]
[sighs]
- Thank you.
- Fuck you.
You cannot stay in here.
- Why?
Because of him?
You know you're not the first
girl he's done this to?
- Done what?
- Well, the charm,
the exciting secrecy.
Then he gets bored of them,
and they disappear.
- Well, I'm still here, so--
- Yeah, for now.
- Just get out of my way.
- I should have known.
You're like the rest of them.
- Move.
- [groans]
What?
What do you want?
- [laughs]
[muffled music]

[tense music]

[gasps]
Lana!
Lana.
Lana!
Lana.
- Shh.
- Please, Lana.
- Kitty.
Kitty. Kit.
- Kitty, Kitty, Kitty, Kitty.
[shushing]
Kitty.
- [screams]
[crying]
- Aaron!
- Oh, what the fuck?
- [laughs]
- Hey, man, what the fuck
are you doing here?
- I see you're still a--
you're still a little--
you're her puppy dog, right?
[laughs]
That's nice.
- Hey, Aaron!
- What the fuck?
- That's nice.
Whoa.
- You should shut your mouth.
- I see you've been
spending too much time
with these Neanderthals.
You start to sound like them.
[speaking indistinctly]
- You're a fucking dick,
you know that?
- Shell, he's trying
to wind you up.
Hey, Aaron!

- Oh.

Where have you been hiding,
Joseph?

With her?
- I hid in the galley store.
- [sighs]
Why the fuck would you
do something
like that, Joseph?
I see.
Oh, that's very fucking sweet.
But as you know,
she's fucking my brother.
Mm.

Well
[gun clicking]
- Aaron.

- I want an answer.
I told you to get the fuck
off my boat, hmm?
Why are you still here?

- [exhales sharply]
OK.
- Aaron, Aaron, Aaron.
Come on. Come on.
Calm down, man.
Just put the gun down, man.
Calm--just calm down.
- I'm here
because I'm guilty too.
I agreed to keep the badge.
I am as responsible for
that boy's death as you are.
It will forever stay with me.
It will haunt us.
And that's why I'm here,
because we can't
run away forever.
You must see that.
We--we have to pay.
- We've already given
the money and the jewels back.
- I don't need money,
stupid Shell!
I'm talking about justice.
- Justice?
- So when we get to Palau,
we must hand ourselves in
to the authorities,
take our punishment.
- In prison?
- A small price to pay
for true freedom.
Otherwise, you'll always
be running, Aaron.
- Sorry, I am not
- No, no, no.
Wait, wait.
Wait, wait, wait.
- Going to prison
- Aaron, no, no.
OK, OK, listen.
- For you or anybody else
on this fucking boat.
- You have the greatest need
for absolution.
The boy who died is not
the first ghost to haunt you.

- And what the fuck
is that supposed to mean?
Hmm?
- What's her name?
What's her name?
What's her name?
Was it Helen?
- Aaron!
Hey, hey, hey.
No.
- Aaron, stop!
- Aaron, get off!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Aaron. Aaron, no.
[gun cocking]
No!
[body thuds]
- Get up!
- Aaron, no, no, no.
- Stop.
- Up!
- Aaron!
No.
[body thuds]
- He stays in there
until Palau.
- No, you can't do that.
- If anyone
tries to let the fucker out
I will shoot them.

- Put the gun down, Aaron.
- Hmm?
- Aaron, put it down, OK?
It's OK.
- Just walk away, Lana.
Walk away.
I warn you.
Walk away.
- No, no.
Lana, don't.
- [yells]
- [grunts]
- You're all going to jail,
you fuckers!

[static crackling]
[touch tones beeping]
[both grunting]
Fucker!
Don't move!
Hello!
Mayday.
[touch tones beeping]
Mayday!
[static crackling]
[touch tones beeping]
[static crackling]
[electricity zapping]

- All right, get down.
Get down.

- Where's he gone?
- That was nice
and fucking stupid.
- You can't just
lock people up.
- Now he's got a gun.
- We need to find him.
I'll get some light.
- I'll talk to him.
- Sure.
If you find him
before Aaron does, yeah.
- Come on, mate.
Joseph.
We should sort this out
together.

- Joseph!
He's gone under.
The current dragged him down.
- Joseph!
- Joseph, can you hear us?
- Here's the gun.
Did Joseph fire it?
- I don't know.
I just saw him in the water,
but I can't see him
anywhere now.
- Joseph!
- Hurry up. Get the flares.
Come on, Heinrich.
Where are the lights?
- Joseph!

- Denny, get the tender ready.
We can use it to search.
- Yeah.
- I'm gonna need more light.
Put up a flare or something.
- Aaron.
- What?
- Fire the flare.
- Aaron.
- Yes.
- I need help here.
OK?
- Good.
- Joseph!
- Heinrich, hurry up.
- Yeah.
[flare whooshing]
[flare explodes]

[engine rumbling]

- We need to talk
about what happens now.
- We need to keep looking.
- He wasn't wearing
a life jacket.
He wouldn't--wouldn't
have survived this long.
- Well, we should put out
a signal or an alert.
- We do that,
we may end up dead or in jail.
- Yeah, but we can't
just leave him.
- He shouldn't have been here.
- Officially, he wasn't.
He wasn't on the manifest.
- According to the logbook,
we left him in the Philippines.
- We can't just pretend
that he didn't exist.
We've got to do something.
Heinrich?
[scoffs]
Shell, come on.
- We need to talk
about what happens now.
- No. There should be a vote.
- No.
- We should vote.
- No, fuck voting.
This is a clear call.
This wind might not last,
and we'll be stuck again.
- [clears throat]
Come on, Aaron.
There must be something.
- Listen to Shell.
Use the wind.
- No.
No!
- It's my boat.
It's my decision.
[dramatic music]

Put the gun
where I can't find it.

- All right,
let's rig the sails.

- Come on.

- Hey, someone's got
to get around the side there.
Can we get somebody
on the side?
[indistinct chatter]
- Do you want a drink?
- Mm-mm, no.
[indistinct chatter]
- I'll get you a tea.
- [sighs]
Oh, I'm sorry.
- No, you don't need
to be sorry.
[liquid pouring]
- Hasn't happened
since Mum left.
Thanks.
Why are you being so nice?
You must hate me
after what I did.
- Shit happened.
It's in the past.
And I could never hate you
Even after what you did.
- Those fucking diamonds.
- Shh.
- I'm gonna tell
the police everything.
It might help them catch
whoever did this.
- Let's take a minute
here now, OK?
- Tell them it was all me.
I don't care
if they lock me up.
- We just took a bag.
That's all we did.
I know, Emma.
Kitty told me.

The police asked about her,
about who the fifth person
on "The Blue" was.

But I gave a different name.
They won't find out
what she did back in the UK.

She said she--

She said she wanted you
to be free
and happy.

Hey.
You OK?
- [groans]
What?
- [sighs]
[sighs]
- Joseph. Joseph.
Is--
Where's Joseph?
Where's Joseph?
Did he--
- Wait.
Wait, what--
What do you remember
about what happened up there?
- Did I--
Did I do something?
- Kitty--
[chuckles]
- Denny, tell me.
[boat creaking]

- I mean, it's not the first
time it's happened, right?

- Fuck.
[sighs]

Yeah, OK.
[sniffles]
Did Ikill Joseph too?
Did I?

- Look, I--

Kitty

I won't tell
anyone.
- Sadly, based
on the new information
we've just received,
we're not expecting
to find any more survivors.
This is--well, it's
- You don't have to talk
to them if you don't want.
- Dennis, I would love
a picture, please.
[reporters clamoring,
camera shutter snaps]
Is this a criminal
investigation?
- Was anybody else involved?
- Are you sure that you
can't make a statement?
I know you
- Dennis, can you tell us
what happened on "The Blue"?
- Look, I appreciate
you've all got papers to sell.
- He tells quite a story--
an attack in the darkness,
ruthless gangsters,
a massacre from which
only he escaped.
I was hoping you
could shed some light
on a bit of a puzzle, though.
The ballistic report says
that all of the bullets
and the bullet holes
found in the boat,
the bullets that must have
been used to kill your friends,
were shot
from a small-bore revolver,
Smith & Wesson.
[gun cocking]

Usually criminals
among my countrymen
would prefer automatic weapons,
so
it's strange.
- So what are you saying?
- Perhaps your friends
didn't perish
in quite the way
he's telling it,
assuming they really are dead.
- Why would he lie?
- I thought you might know.

- No. No.
Denny wouldn't do that.
- You sure?
- Emma?
- You got my number.
- Let me begin by saying
that these two days--
- Look, look, look, look.
There he is. There he is.
There's Dennis and that girl.
Dennis! Dennis!
Can you come here?
Dennis?
- Dennis? Dennis, please.
Just one more minute.
Just one more question.
[reporters clamoring]
Dennis, please.
Just want to ask one
more question.
- [muffled]
No more.
Take them off. Thank you.
Stay there, please.
[clamor continues]
- [sighs]
- Mum and Dad are cool.
You can stay as long
as you like.

- Thanks.
- They're so happy
one of us is alive,
I think they'd agree to
anything

Even if I'm not
their first choice.

- You must have been
so scared
All those men with guns.
- Yeah.
I can't stop seeing them.

I'm so happy you're here.

I don't know what I'd do
if you weren't.

- I'm so glad I'm here too.
