No Escape (2023) s01e07 Episode Script

No Escape

- 14 hours ago, a distress
call was picked up,
and "The Blue" was found,
no one on board.
There's something
I'd like you to hear.
- "The Blue"--
we're in trouble.
We need help.
Can you hear me?
- Hey, what did you find?
- They're uncut diamonds,
they're worth 1 and 1/2 mil.
- He's got this
idea that there was
something dodgy about that
money we found.
It was a setup.
- Was it?
- I don't know.
- Miss, take my hand!
This is not a place
for tourists.
- It was a ransom,
paid by our family
to get back their kidnapped son
from the BLF.
- He wasn't just my brother.
He was my captain.
- It's actually my wife's
anniversary tomorrow,
the night she died.
- You think we can trust him?
- What the--
- Stop!
- Aah!
- She's dead.
- Confess!
- We are murderers.
Confess.
- Confess!
- No!
- What are you doing?
- I need you to jump.
Anything is better than
staying on this boat.
- I killed Joseph. It was me.
- Kit, you need to jump.
- You're safer without me.
- I'll wait for you.
- What's going on?
- Got a survivor.
- Kitty and the others?
- I couldn't stop it.
- It's very brave
for you to come here.
Now tell me everything.
- You told me that I pushed
Joseph, but I didn't.
- It's okay.
- It was you.
[suspenseful music]

- What are you doing?
- Nothing, nothing.
See?
- You lied to me.
- No, put that down.
- You lied to me.
- Kitty, put the knife down.
- You killed Joseph! Not me!
- Put it down.
- Denny.
- Aaron, Aaron!

- Hey, why's the door locked?
- Don't you fucking dare.
- Aaron.
- Kitty, put it down.
- Aaron, we need to call
the police,
and we need to
get to shore now.
Now!
- What's going on?
Come on, hey, hey.
We need to talk now, okay?
All of us.
- No, he killed Joseph, not me.
- He didn't.
- He did.
- Hey, just think about
what you're saying, Aaron.
- It was me.

I killed him.
[Florence & the Machine's

- 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 ♪
- Give me the knife.
[boat creaking]
What's up with the gun?
Did you kill someone, Den?
You know you can be a very
persuasive piece of shit.
- Oh, persuasive.
So, what, this is my fault?
- Yeah, partly, partly.
- Don't you try
to screw me here.
Okay?
Joseph deserved to
go in the water.
He would have put
us all in jail.
You did what needed to be done,
like I'm doing now
like I did with Helen.
- You won't go there.
- Cleaning up after your mess,
making it look
like you were never there.
- We both know
why you did that,
you deceitful piece of shit.
- Why? Why?
'Cause she OD'd and then
you ran, left her dead--
pregnant and dead.
You left me to fix it.
- Don't, Den.
- Like we need
to fix this now
right now.
- You really think
that helped me, hmm?
All your life, all you done
is lie to me
screw me over--
scams, fuck people over,
fucked me over, Helen!
- You fucked
your own life, Aaron.
Maybe you should be
in fucking prison.
I mean, that'd make you
happy, wouldn't it, Kitty?
No, don't even fucking--
- Tell me the truth!
Tell me!
For once in your life,
tell me the truth.
Hmm?
- What?
I cleaned up the mess your
junkie ass left, that's all.
- Say it.
Say it, Denny.
- What? Say what?
- Say it!
[dramatic music]

Say it.

- Who do you think
was there for her, Aaron?

- [groans softly]
- It wasn't you.
You fucking ignored her.
She was so lonely
- [exhales loudly]
- She took an overdose.
And then you left her
and the baby to go cold.
It's a shame
a real shame.

I'd love to have been a father,
but my baby died with Helen.

- Aah!
- [gasps]

- I made mistakes, Den,
but it's you who made
the biggest of them all.

- You're okay.
You're okay.

- Back in the Philippines,
our theory
was that Navarro tipped
someone off
about the drop point
for the ransom--
a Westerner with
gambling debts.
- Denny.
Yeah, Denny steered us to it.
He used me to steer us to it.
- Because
he knew exactly where it was.
- Oh, wait.
This whole thing was all him.
- Yeah.
So you see why he
might act ruthlessly?
It's to cover his tracks.
- Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
I left Kitty alone with him.
He's--
- This
[scoffs]
This man,
this Dennis Winbourne,
he is dangerous.
But I'm out of my jurisdiction.
And the Australian police
are not exactly my friends.
- Wait, so what are you saying?
He--he can walk away and
I have to forget about Kitty?
- Dennis lied about so much.
Who knows what else
he might be hiding?
- Well, then we have to make
him tell the truth.
- Then I need more evidence,
something that proves
that "The Blue" was involved
in what happened in Bulakan.
- Okay, okay.
Uh, if
if we get him
and if he goes to jail
What happens to me?
- If you help me,
I can get you to
the Philippines as a witness.
- And after that?
- The legal system
in the Philippines,
in my country,
it's a little bit more porous.
After you testify,
you can slip away.
- And you can make that happen?
- I want justice, too.
- [sighs]
[exhales deeply]
I have what you need.
[sniffles]
I have evidence.
But we've got to go
back to the house.
[sniffles]

- What's going on?
- Nothing.
Just couldn't sleep.

[liquid pouring]
[bottle clatters lightly]

- It's late.
You should come back to bed.

- Yeah.

[door opens]
- Hey, what's wrong?
- [gasps]
Uh
watch the door.
- Hey, hey--
- Just watch the door!
He killed--he killed Aaron.
[grunting]
Shell!
[rock music on headphones]
- [singing along]

- [breathing heavily]
Shell.
Okay.
[beeping, static whirs]
Hello. This is "The Blue."
This is "The Blue."
We need help. We need help.
Come on, this is an emergency.
Come on!

- It's fine.
[ship creaking]

Here
[sniffles]
This'll keep you safe..

- H-hey, Denny?
- Ric.
- Hey, Den.
What's happening, man?
- Ric?
- Den.
- Hey. Ricky?
- Yeah, what's going on?
- Um
hey, Kitty cut Aaron, Ric.
He's unconscious.
He's bleeding, Ric.
Please, I need help, Ric.

- [breathing heavily]
Oh, my God.
Aaron.
You
you murdered Aaron?
- That's a fucking lie, Ric.
- This whole time,
you're playing with me.
- Don't say that, Ric.

- Kitty! Kitty!
Aah!
[beeping]
- Hello? Hello?
Can you hear me?
Come on!
- MOL Triumph to "The Blue,"
reading you.
- H-h-hello?
We're in trouble.
We need help.
Can you hear me?
Fuck, can you hear me?
Hello?

- You should have stayed
away, mate.
[Ric grunting]

- Oh.
[Ric grunts]
Why didn't you just stay away?

- [grunts softly]
- [gasps]

Yeah.
- Are you able to give
your position?
[static whirs]
- Position?
I don't know our position.
Oh, God. I don't know--
I don't know where we are.
Oh, God, he's dead, he's dead!
Please, can you hear me?
Please!
Come on, plea--

[mutters defeatedly]
[static whirring]
- [whispering]
Kitty, Kitty, Kitty, Kitty
Kitty, Kitty, Kitty,
Kitty, Kitty, Kitty.

Kit

What are you doing, Kitty?
Kitty.
- [screams]
No, please! No, please!
[device beeps]
No!
Aah! No!
[crying]
No, please!
You think I want to do this?
[rock music on headphones]
- [humming along]

Aaron's dead because of you
all because of you.
- [crying]
Please, Denny, please.
- I wish you had just
killed yourself.
Stupid bitch!
[gunshot]
- [whimpering]
- Get the fuck away from her.

Back up, Denny.

Back up, Denny.

- I didn't do it, Shell.
- He did. He did.
- Get on your knees.
- I tried to save him.
- I said get on your knees!
Kitty
the, uh, inflatable lifeboat,
go get it.
It's behind me.
It's under some tarp.
Go!

Do you see it?
- Where is it?
- It's underneath the tarp!

Now get up.
I said get up!

Are you done?
- Am I tying it to the side?
- Yes.
- Okay. Okay.
- Back up.

Keep backing up.
- [grunts loudly, shouts]

I did it!

- Denny
now get down there and get in.
- I didn't do it, Shell.
[gunshot]
- I said get in!

- You're killing me.
- We're not safe
while you're on this boat.
So get in.

Kitty, throw in the line.
- We're in the middle
of nowhere.
No one will find me.
You know I'll die out there.
- We'll get help
when we're on the shore.
- We are not murderers!

I'm not.

[distant thunder rumbles]
- I need more time.
I understand.
- [breathes deeply]
- Hey.
[thunder rumbling]
Where are your parents?
- Oh, they've gone away
visiting my uncle.
We have the place to ourselves.
- Yeah, I was actually
thinking I might head--
- Hey, Lana, um
We got to get serious here.
Come here.
[knocks on table]
[scoffs]
[thunder rumbles]
All this shit
I just
[sighs] I just want to get
out of here.
- Hmm.
- Out of Oz.
[exhales sharply]
[thunder rumbles]
Out of Townsville.
Get back out there
two dots on the horizon.
- But
I don't have any money.
- But we do have
the diamonds, right?
[thunder rumbles]
- No.
No.
I-I don't
- Where are they, Lana?
- They're on--
they're on "The Blue."
- [chuckles]
I don't believe you.
- They were causing
so much trouble,
I just didn't want anything
to do with them, so I
um
I hid them.

- Where?
- Um
in the storeroom.
- In the storeroom?
- Yeah.
[thunder rumbles]
- Let's get them now.
- The
the boat's blocked off.
The police are there--
- Let's get them now.
Come on.

[keys jingling]
[car door opens, beeping]

- This is crazy.
It's too dangerous.
- Just relax.
Like we work here.
Look
forensics are finished.
The search has been called off.
Security is going
to be way down.
- It's still a crime scene,
so if they catch us--
- They'll give us a warning,
then they'll send us home.
- No, stop!
- What the fuck are you doing?
- [sighs]
I can't get arrested.
- Lana
don't let everything we've been
through be for nothing.
- Then you do it.
But if you force me
onto that boat, I'll scream.
- Then scream.
[distant chatter]
Remember, I know
what you've done.
So you go telling tales
you suffer.
[whistling]
[chatter continues]

- Miss, can I help you?
- Yeah, uh, just looking
for the reception desk.
Actually, um,
I have just noticed
the guy wandering down there.
Looks a bit dodgy to me.

[phone beeps]

- Thought you were going to run
out on me.
- Yeah, well,
I had to get rid of him.

- Kitty, wake up.
Kitty.
Over here.
- [groans softly]
[clears throat]
- Get the emergency flag
from the sail locker.
I'll turn the boat around.
We get closer, we improve
our chances of being seen.
[sighs]
- Where is it?
- The autopilot's been shifted.
This whole time
we've been circling.

- Shh.
- You thought Aaron's watch was
on "The Blue"?
- Yeah.
I knew he would have wanted me
to have it.
- Oh, and rather than call us,
you decide to sneak
into a secure crime scene.
- Well, to you
it's a crime scene.
To me, it's my brother's boat.
- Let's cut the crap, Dennis,
all right?
You're lying
about why you came here,
and you're also lying
about what happened
on that boat, too.
- No, I've told you the truth,
right from the start.
Am I being charged?
- Not as yet.
- Well, then I
I'd like to go home, please.
- Wait, wait.
Hello?
[door closes]
Anyone home?
[beeping]
It's in the bottom of here,
but I don't know
if I can reach.
- Let me, let me.
[object clatters]
What am I--
- It's a key, there.
I was worried that someone was
going to go through my stuff,
so I just hid it, and I--
- Wait, what--what's this?
I thought we were getting
diamonds.

- What?
Wait.
No, no, no, no, no.
- Wait. Uh
- No.
You work for them.
- Yes.
A long time ago.
But with those people,
once is enough.
Tell me, what's this?
- No, I trusted you,
and you said you were
going to help me.
- Trust?
You people come to my country,
fuck everything up,
then you complain
about the mess you made
like you're the victims.
[shouts in Tagalog]
- Y-yeah, that's why
I want to get Denny.
I want to make this right.
- What about you, Lana?
What you did--
who will put that right?
You think I want to do this?
You think I give the orders?
These people, this BLF--
they make my country bleed.
So, if I don't do
what they say,
my family will die.
My son will die,
all because
of the diamonds you took.
You understand now?
- I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.
[device beeping]
- Wait.
[device chatters indistinctly]
- Fuck.
Shit.
[sighs]
- [gasps]
- I told you not
to trust this guy.
What?
- You set it all up
The diamonds
Navarro.
- Have you been listening
to his bullshit?
[sighs]
Trying to trick me
again?
I-I, uh, couldn't find
the diamonds--
- You need to tell me
what happened to Kitty,
'cause she's all I've got.
She's my family,
so you need to tell me.
You need to tell me.
Did you kill her?
Did you?
- The Kitty thing, um
Fuck. Uh
No.
- No?
- No, I didn't kill Kitty.
- She's alive?
- Yeah.
- She's alive?
The last time you saw her,
she was alive?
- Sure, yeah.
- Well, then she's
going to die out there, so
We need to tell the police.
We need to tell them the truth.
- Oh
- And it's my fault,
so I need to--
- Oh, fuck, what are you--
No, hey, no.
You tell Craven--
- Kitty got into
that because of me, so
- Fuck, well,
that's a stupid idea.

- You're insane.

Help me!
- I don't want to
hurt you, Lana.
I just

[scoffs]
I just want to talk.

You know, we could
have done it, Lana--run away!

It would have been amazing.

But you would just
not let it go.

All about Kitty.

Oh, it must be hard

Knowing she's out there
Somewhere.

I just want to be with Lana.

- Denny!
Denny, Denny.
Denny, stop it.
Stop now!
- Please.
- Give me the gun.
[gunshots]
- [screaming, crying]
- Stop.
Please, stop, please.
[gun clicks]
Denny, stop!
[both sobbing]

[sobbing continues]
- It's okay. It's okay.
It's okay. It's okay.
- Kitty, we need--
we need to get off the boat.
We need to--
- Okay.
I'm sorry.
- We need to get off the boat.
- Okay, okay.

[both sobbing]
I'm gonna put you in the raft.
Okay, okay.
[sobbing continues]
You're gonna get in.
Come on. Come on!

Please!
- No! No, no.
Denny, please.
Hey!
Listen to me!
Listen to me.
You're going to need someone
to help sail with you
to Townsville, aren't you?
Hey! Listen to me!
- Shh.
- You're gonna need
someone to help you sail,
and I can be that person.
Okay?
I can help you.
I just want to be with Lana.

- Reyes.
Okay.
Come on.
Oh, come on.
[gasps]

[door thuds lightly]

[lock clicks]

- You know, you act like
this is all about Kitty.
Whose fault is it all, really?
Oh, no, that was you.
It's all you.
- You!
It was you!
- Yeah? Yeah, it's me?
- Yeah.
Fuck you!
- Abandon her
for a bunch of diamonds,
then hide them from her!
Oh, no, that was you.
That was you.
- Well, do it, then.
Do it.
[chuckles]
- You know, we really
are the same, Lana.
You don't see it?
Because I did, I did,
straightaway.
You did whatever it took
to save your own as,
no matter who got hurt!
- [shouts]
- Even your precious
best friend.
I love that about you, Lana!
But everything great
is just as difficult to realize
as it is
rare to find.
- [screams]

Kitty.

- What the fuck
happened here, Emma?
- My name's not Emma.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.

Sandra hated me
from the minute I came
to live with her.
I don't think I was
what she expected
from a good little girl.
Kit made me feel
wanted and
loved.
We just looked
after each other.
And then when it happened
and Sandra fell,
I knew I couldn't let
Kit take the blame.
So I just got this
idea in my head that we
run away
and be together, just us.
- Stand by.
- I just wanted her
to myself.
- He's not breathing.
- But
Whatever has happened to Kitty
is my fault.
- Well, what you told us
checked out
with the UK
crime scene report, so
- I think you need to restart
the search now.
- That's the first thing I did.
That's why I went back out
to the house, to
give Dennis another shake,
but I never dreamt--
- That stuff that Denny said
about the--
the attack on the boat--
- Well, so far, we're
operating on the assumption
that the whole thing
was staged.
Dennis shot
"The Blue" up himself
and then dumped
any of the evidence
that contradicted his story.
When he was happy with the way
everything was set up,
he then set "The Blue"
on a course to Townsville--
make sure she was found.
And then he got
in the tender
waited to be rescued.
- He took Kitty's phone.
Why?
- Souvenir, maybe.
Or to find you.
- Sorry, Mariel.
I'm really sorry.

- So, if I am under arrest,
I get to make
a phone call, right?
- Yeah.

[cell phone ringing]
- Hello?
Lana?
- You were right.
We started this,
and I just--I want it to end.
I don't want anyone else
to get hurt, so
Townsville bus station.
You'll find
what you need there.
And there's something
for Joseph's sister as well.
- Where to, mate?
- The bus terminal.
- Really?
Okay, thank you.
Lana, you are not going
to believe this.
I've just been told
we found a survivor.
- From "The Blue"?
- From "The Blue."
She's being flown in right now.

[object rattles]

- [sighs]
- I'm so sorry.
[breathes deeply]
- Hey, Kitty.
Kitty, jump!
Kitty! Kitty!
- I just want to be with Lana.
That's all I want.
No one is going to know
what you've done.
- [scoffs]
You must really think I'm--
- [screams]
[crying]
- I just want to be with Lana.
I just want to be with Lana!

Lana
Lana
[gunshot]
- Kitty!
[sobs]
He threw her body
in the water.
[crying]

She saved my life.
- Yeah
mine, too.

[car door opens]
[car door closes]

- I don't think I would've
survived all the Sandra stuff
if it weren't for you.
- Yeah, you would.
And, anyway,
we're connected here
joined forever.
I'll always be there
for you, right there.
