Wreck (2022) s01e06 Episode Script

Water off a Duck's Back

I should never have let you get
involved with the girl.
Clean up your mess.
These lies took you to some
secret room.
There's no windows and a hidden
door?
Pippa Walsh was my sister.
She's dead.
Sam chased her over the side
of the ship.
And the people on her list? They're
all gone.
We need to find the room that they
took you to.
Get some photos.
I want to know who he's talked to.
He hangs around with the girl,
Vivian.
I'm a whale, remember? Stay here.
Inside the walls.
Jesus Christ!
CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS
Mr Allen, my boys Your boys
screwed the pooch.
You have a lot of questions, Jamie,
and I'll show you the truth.
Who is that? Who is she?
Leila. She works in housekeeping.
Who are they?
You're supposed to run!
What's going on?
You're my birthday gift.
And they're letting me
open you early.
No.
PHONE BEEPS
Now, with your dominant hand
an inch from the
SQUELCHING
No, no, no.
You didn't get a good deal.
You were just fucked gently.
Trust me, I've been in the business
40 years,
Mush. Fire 'em quickly,
hire 'em slow. Sh!
CHOKING
INDISTINCT VOICE ON RADIO
Friend of yours?
She's up on the board.
Means she's been selected.
We offer an opportunity
for a selection of our top-tiered
suites to take part in a
one-of-a-kind activity.
Participants are picked
out during the first week.
Each one of our suites gets one turn
out there on the floor.
They're killing us for fun?
Hey, didn't say it was my idea
of a good time.
As you've seen, Sacramentum
is designed for easy extraction.
What's he playing at? You tell me.
In every society, there's always
been those expected to act not
as self-serving, but
self-sacrificing.
Velorum understand that killing is a
part of the human experience.
It's in our genes.
It drives societies.
It's a powerful thing.
Oh, and half the price of admission
goes into our nonprofit foundation.
Our guests like to give back.
The girl is in the hold and the
guests in suite four want a word.
Of course they do.
Make sure Is what happened
to my sister?
No, that really was Sam.
He let Pippa get too close.
She knew crew were missing,
knew about the walls.
She didn't get as far as you.
Nobody ever has.
I guess blind pig-headedness
runs in the family.
She was trying to stop you.
This is something Velorum have
been doing since 1893.
We survived the Great Depression,
two world wars, the financial crash.
I'm not sure what a chorus girl
thought she'd do to stop us.
Well, you were worried enough to get
rid of her.
She had a big mouth.
We suspected that she'd told
Danny Jones what she'd found out.
Danny had to go to.
Sam was supposed to send
pretty boy overboard.
But he managed to screw
that up as well.
And he got away.
Took a wrong turn.
Ran off the bridge.
Sam was told, "Don't shit
where you eat."
But he wouldn't listen.
It was all water off a duck's back.
Go wait in the mess.
Not so fast. He's needed on duty.
He's needed here.
Now, you know what they say.
For every back, there is a knife.
Your sister betrayed him.
Is this necessary?
Oh, I almost left out the best
part of the sordid tale.
Sam killed them dressed as a duck.
Stealth or a psychotic break?
Well, you decide.
I think he couldn't bear
to look them in the eye.
Right, Sam?
HE SCREAMS
Is this necessary,
Karen? It's necessary.
Your men understand.
It's no good closing the door
once the horse has bolted.
And you,
Jamie Walsh, you are a prized pony.
Please don't do this.
Please don't do this!
You can thank me later.
Now, I guess the only question is,
who else did you birdies sing to?
Don't do it out there.
We need to reset the floor.
Come on! Get off him!
Get off him!
Olly? Olly!
Vivian!
Jamie!
Jamie, what's going on?
I'll come back for you, Vivian.
I promise.
Argh, Vivian!
Jamie!
Jamie!
We haven't told anyone anything.
Please, this doesn't need Oh, put
a sock in it.
Look at me. Look at me.
Make this easy on yourselves, yeah?
Who did you talk to?
No one. No one.
I thought you were going
to say that.
Argh!
Oh, God.
Get up! Up there, now!
Open wide. Get it in there.
Argh! Get it in there.
Hey, hey! Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Whoa, whoa! Stop, please!
Last chance.
Please don't.
It's got a turn to it, eh?
Last chance! Tell me!
OK, OK. Too slow.
No!
You boys looking for us?
Do one.
Oh, fuck this. No!
No!
No, wait! Wait, wait, wait!
We need to get out of here. No!
No, Vivian! We'll find another way.
What the hell was that?
Something you should have done
months ago.
You've lost your touch.
What kind of show
are you running here?
Did you know you've got
dissident kids running riot?
I'll have someone's head for this.
That can be arranged.
I can assure you this is the first
and last time anything
like that will ever happen.
It is unusual for guests to start
relationships with crew they pick.
Let's stay solution-focused.
Thank you, Karen.
I said, "Thank you."
What can we do to make this right?
I want my turn.
Tonight.
I'll fucking kill them.
Fuck me sideways.
You OK? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We need to go back.
We'll be online soon, Jamie.
We can fetch help and we can
Vivian doesn't have time.
We're still cut off.
WiFi's down.
We're so close. We can go
back through the walls.
What? What are you talking about?
They'll be waiting for us.
The guests.
They killed that girl.
Like she was nothing.
Found out it's like a full-blown
operation.
What, are the four of us supposed
to take on those boys ourselves?
We need to call the police.
We'll be on land in the next hour.
As soon as we dock, we'll call
for help. It's over for them.
They are going to kill her.
RUMBLING
PA: Could all guests please
return to their cabins?
We hope to continue service shortly.
What's happening? They've stopped
the ship.
She's going nowhere, Karen.
Roger that, Captain.
There's more of them
than we thought, you know.
They've gone rogue.
Right, this is it.
Full lockdown.
We don't move another inch
until those rat-shaped shit stains
are in front of me. Understood?
This ends tonight.
We've got about two minutes
before those boys find us.
We can't just leave her up there.
There's got to be another
way to get back to her.
We can't do this on our own, Jamie.
No, we can't.
Not on our own.
DANCE MUSIC PLAYS
That had better work.
MUSIC TURNS OFF
BOOING
Go back to your room!
No one cares.
Please. We don't have long.
Quiet, quiet, quiet!
Settle down.
Come on, let the twink speak.
My name is Jamie Walsh.
My sister was Pippa Walsh.
She was an entertainer on here.
She went missing
about three months ago.
Velorum said that she jumped.
I knew I always knew
that she didn't.
And I was right.
Because she was murdered by officer
Sam Roakes.
She tried to do the right thing.
She found out that Velorum are using
us,
the people up top, the first class
guests, are paying to hunt us
on the ship.
LAUGHTER
CHEERING
FEEDBACK SCREECHES
She been on the wacky tabacki?
Jerome I don't know his second
name.
I should. I'm sorry.
He was from Paris.
He was a musician.
They killed him two nights ago.
Jerome
Laila Ramirez.
She was a waitress on here.
We just watched them hunt her down.
Danny Jones. He was a performer on
here.
I know a lot of you knew him.
That was Velorum too.
No. He jumped.
Daniel Regan.
Felipe Herrera.
Jessica Craig.
Pippa Walsh.
The list goes on and on.
None of them ever left the ship
alive.
We're disposable to them.
We're just bottom of the chain.
And they think that no one
will notice.
And it's true. They haven't.
Until now. It's been happening
right under our noses.
You just haven't noticed
because they keep us busy.
They work us to the bone.
They distract us with cheap booze.
And now one of us - Vivian -
is up there right now.
Up where?
First class. It's a space that they
use.
What space?
It's hidden.
If we don't do something
now, they'll kill Vivian
too. Go look outside.
Why do you think they've stopped
the ship?
We're trapped.
If this is true It's true.
Then what can we do about it?
We fight.
I'm scared.
Someone once told me that the best
way out is through and the only way
out of this is through.
But it has to be all of us.
We all have to fight.
That is their worst nightmare.
Us all standing together.
We have to save Vivian.
We need to go now
because she doesn't have long.
CHATTER
Du Pont.
Jerome's last name was Du Pont,
and he did go missing a few days
ago.
I'm with you.
Me too.
What?
He's telling the truth.
Danny didn't kill himself.
Fuck those bastards.
SHOUTING
Can you confirm you have no medical
impairment that might prevent
you from participating?
Great.
And you've opted for zero
sedation for your participant.
I want her to see me.
Sure.
Oh, and you've chosen the honeymoon
experience.
Nice.
Take your pick.
RADIO: Come in. Karen.
Karen, come in.
Why have we stopped?
It's all routine.
No need for concern.
That one.
I can't believe I was dating
a murder.
Don't. It's not like you were
exclusive or anything.
And in your defence, he was so fit.
Yeah, like I probably still
would.
You said it's the first class guests
who have been doing this, right?
Yeah.
So what about the regular guests?
We could wake them up and get
them to help.
It's not like they can all
be involved, can they?
Even if we do, there isn't
enough time.
Vivian needs us right now.
That service elevator's
the only way up to first.
ALARM BLARES
Shit!
Woo! This is the end of the line,
you set of bastards.
Paul,
or whatever your fucking name
is, your spanking comes first.
Why is the Glock 17
when you need one?
All right.
This is going as far as
it's going to go.
Disperse,
and you might have jobs
in the morning.
I don't know what the boy has told
you, but he needs measuring
for a straight jacket.
He's a fantasist.
Disperse now or we will use force.
Come on! Woo!
Come on. Let's fucking have you.
Here we fucking go.
Look at 'em. Knickers full of shite.
Playing with the baton gives me
a fucking throb-on.
Sorry. Beth! Sorry.
It was so nice getting to know you
guys. We'll do brunch, OK?
RATTLING
Never liked her.
There's no way we're getting
through these shutters.
Everybody, get back! Move! Move!
Move, move!
DOOR OPENS
COUGHING
It's OK - it's just smoke,
it's just smoke.
Jamie! Jamie! Jamie!
I see you've been busy. We're here
for our friend.
In ten minutes, your friend
will have had the chop
and all this tomfuckery
will have been for nothing.
We are proof. We have photos.
We have videos inside the walls.
Don't be a dick.
You've got a video of a ship
under construction and names
of runaways. That does not
a Panorama special make.
You're never getting
through here in time.
And once your gal pal is gone,
I'm going to raise this gate,
and I'm going to come looking
for you.
You saw how he took Sam out.
You're the dick
if you don't see that you're
as disposable as we are.
Was this all part
of his great plan?
Ask nicely.
Open up, you bitch.
Let a few more peel off
and then we'll get out there.
Scorched earth, lads.
Jamie! They're all running.
Where's Olly? I don't know.
I think he's gone.
Did somebody call maintenance?
CHEERING
What in Velorum's name
Where did he get that bloody saw
from? I don't fucking know.
I thought you'd ran off.
Can't get rid of me that easily.
In for the battle here.
Come on, come on
HE GRUNTS
Where are you going?
This is taking too long.
It's the only way. I've got to try
the walls.
The walls? No, no, they'll be
waiting for you in there.
Are you mad? What's going on?
He's going back inside the walls.
Are you mad? We're trapped here, OK?
This is the only other way.
Well, I'm going with you, man.
No, you guys stay here and keep
them occupied, all right?
These guys need all the help they
can get. Get to the bridge.
Find a phone. Get help.
Call everyone you can.
I'll be fine.
We are coming for you!
Up.
Karen, where you going?
Stand firm.
Right What you doing back
here?
Come on.
Get down there now.
We're going into battle.
Show 'em your war face, lads.
HE SCREAMS
Evacuate?
Not a chance.
We can't hold them off.
I've shut off the elevator,
but the Filipinos built the thing.
What are we going to do
when 3,000 guests wake up, wanting
eggs and bakey?
We've underestimated the lad.
You don't have the authority.
I say when we evacuate.
This is my ship.
The Sacramentum has fallen.
My boys need off your ship.
Your boys failed.
You have failed.
Congratu-fucking-lations, Karen.
Your ineptitude has finally
surpassed your irrelevance.
Get back down there and wipe
them out. Sir, no.
You're done.
Officer Beaker, I'm promoting
you to First Officer.
You're authorized to use
whatever force necessary.
Two words for when this is over.
Administrative fucking leave.
That's three words, you prick.
GRUNTING
RADIO: Everyone down to the I-95,
now!
We got a situation!
SOFT MUSIC PLAYS
Untie me!
Vivian.
What you doing?
What is this? Sh.
It's just us.
Why?
Why?
Why are you doing this?
Why not?
Untie me.
Where are you going?
SHE STRAINS
Get off me. Get off me.
What's she doing?
It's called foreplay, son?
Can I go back to the room?
Shut up, Nile.
This week? Are you telling me that
none of what we had, none of it was
real?
It's nothing personal.
Feels like it.
Feelings aren't facts, Vivian.
You're having an intense emotional
response.
And I get it. I do.
This is my first time too.
Why me?
Honestly, I've been on here before.
Watched this a lot.
And it's always the same.
Cowering, pleading.
I wanted my first time
to be special.
I knew you had fight.
You're lying to yourself.
You're lying to yourself.
You know that this was real.
You made me fall for you.
And all of that was just for this?
I don't think so.
Come on.
Why are you laughing?
Sorry, I
Sorry.
Honestly, the
look on your face right now.
Made it all worth it.
Come on, then.
What you waiting for?
Just do it!
Thank you, Vivian.
This has been really special.
No.
RIPPING
What are you doing?
I told you. Fight.
What?
You want to fight?
I love a bit of girl-on-girl.
I told you I'd find you.
A lesbian with a power tool? How
original.
Where is Vivian?
You really think you're going
to get out of this alive?
You're fighting a losing battle.
I seem to be doing all right.
You've no idea what's coming your
way.
It was Sam was a fuck up.
I'm not making excuses,
but it wasn't always that way.
None of us were.
Your sister reminded him of
who he used to be.
You were right when you said
we're all disposable to them.
I just don't think you realize
how right you are.
Your pal's through there.
Why are you helping me?
Because a good soldier knows when to
fight and when to surrender.
And these cockends owe me
a lot of paid leave.
Vivian!
Vivian!
Vivian!
SHE SCREAMS
SHE SHRIEKS Lily!
SHE SCREAMS
You're OK. Hey, hey.
You're OK.
It's going to be all right, OK?
Come in, Beaker.
What just happened?
Beaker, come in.
Beaker, come in!
Who's the boy?
Everybody, stay calm.
Calm? Steven, do something!
Please, just let my people get
the situation under control.
What people? Fuck this for a game of
soldiers.
It's OK. We're OK.
It's over now.
Vivian, hey, hey, hey.
Look at me.
It's over now. All right?
We're getting off of here and
we're going home.
I'm going to get you off of here.
We're going get you cleaned up.
We're going to go find the others.
We're safe now.
SHOUTING
BEEPING
You're finished.
The police will be on their way now.
You think these people care
about the police?
It's over. For you, maybe.
Velorum are done.
Velorum are bigger than you could
ever imagine.
You might have put the Sacramentum
out of action temporarily.
But did you really think we're only
doing this on one ship?
What? You are a drop in the ocean,
just like your sister.
Inconsequential.
You're nothing.
I'm so sorry.
It's all right.
ELEVATOR: Doors opening.
Everybody, be cool.
You all right, Jamie?
Not really.
We're here now.
Vivian.
You heard the lady.
Drop your weapons.
We've called in Mayday.
The police are on their way.
Not a chance.
SCRAPING
Party's over, kiddies.
Daddy's been up all night.
Drop 'em
or I'll split you in two.
Down, boy.
Piss off, Barbie.
I'll cut your arm off and
whack you with the soggy end.
Don't test me!
GASPS
Ow!
You? Me.
SHE SCREAMS
SAW BUZZES
You were wrong about Pippa.
She wasn't nothing.
She's the reason you've just lost
this ship.
You killed her.
You lot really don't think the
rules apply to you, do you?
You'll pay for this.
Yeah.
Yeah, I probably will, because
that's what we do, isn't it?
We all pay the price.
But you lot don't know what
consequences are.
Well, now you do.

He's dead.
Good.
I mean, he got the easy way out,
and Pippa died thinking
that she'd failed, but
Yeah, but you got what you came
on here for. You got the truth.
I know it sounds stupid, but,
you know,
a part of me always thought
that I'd be leaving with her.
That I'd, like, find her somehow.
It's not stupid.
You're going to make
sure that everyone knows
what she did and why she's gone.
The whole world is going to know
the name Pippa Walsh
and that's because of you.
That is because of us.
He's right about what he said,
though, isn't he?
About them not being scared.
Have you seen them in there?
They think they're untouchable.
They think they can just buy their
way out of anything.
This isn't finished.
Then neither are we.
Whatever happens next, I'm with you.
We will burn Velorum to the ground
if we have to.
They're not getting away with this.
What's going on?
I don't know.
We need to get out of here.
Let's move out.
