Outer Range (2022) s01e08 Episode Script

The West

1 People have told me that grace is a given thing.
That if you seek it, you'll find it.
When I was a kid, I'd go to church, and hear the pastor preach the word.
And he'd make me feel everything in my heart.
And everything in the world around me would have a little more meaning.
The world was a bright place.
It worked on me.
God was everything good.
Then, when I was eight years old, I shot my father.
When I watched that stray buckshot go into his chest and blow all his insides out his back, the world went black.
Like it had ended altogether.
It hit me that God is everything.
Everything good and everything bad.
I need guns.
We got them.
Come on in.
Hey.
Have you seen my dad? He's supposed to take me to school.
No.
Sorry about the fight.
You think you're gonna win? No.
Why? I feel like shit.
You kind of look like shit.
I think you're gonna win.
You think you're gonna stay here your whole life? Aren't you? Love ♪ Rising from the mist ♪ Promise me ♪ This and only this ♪ Holy breath ♪ Touching me ♪ Like a wind song ♪ Sweet communion ♪ Of a kiss ♪ Sun ♪ Bursting through the gray ♪ Enter in ♪ Reach me ♪ With a ray ♪ Silently ♪ Swooping down ♪ Just to show me ♪ How to give my heart away ♪ Once a crystal choir came down ♪ While I was sleeping ♪ And called my name ♪ And when they came down ♪ Nearer ♪ Saying dying is done ♪ Then a new song ♪ Was sung ♪ Until somewhere ♪ We live as one ♪ And still I hear their whisper ♪ You know we named them all? When I was maybe five years old, me and Dad named all the owls.
Every time he'd kill one, bring it home, pull it out of his gym bag Oh, I'd be so excited.
I remember sitting cross-legged on his lap on the floor right here saying all their names together.
That one's Prudence.
And that's Integrity.
And that's Hope.
You know what we named that one? What? Luke.
He was my favorite so we named him after you.
Does Dad know? Know what? About the hole.
Well, I think so.
Does he know what it's worth? What do you mean? I mean, whatever it is, it came out of the goddamn earth and it's worth something.
More than we even know probably.
I mean, there is a a mother lode of money just-just waiting for us.
A whole new goddamn frontier ready to be got.
And we could be first.
Hmm? The hole's gone.
- What do you mean it's gone? - It's gone.
Disappeared.
Maybe it's hiding somewhere else, I don't know.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Come on.
Come on.
Dad always told me he was gonna leave me the ranch.
I know you're super mad about that but I don't want you to try to kill him again.
So, if you don't, then you can have it.
It'll all be yours.
Isn't that what you always wanted? How long before a skipped bail goes to auction? Oh I need you to draw from the trust.
- No, I need the money.
- You do, huh? Mm-hmm.
Just get me the money.
Hey, Royal.
I'm looking for a hippie woman staying here named Autumn Rivers.
Um, yes - Yeah, Room 210.
- 210? Hey, we're all pulling for Rhett tonight.
Thank you much.
Oh, last time was, uh, last night.
Yeah.
Um I don't even remember what time, but, Kathy, I'm telling you, I'm worried because I went through town, nobody, nobody's seen hide nor hair of him, and I just I don't understand it.
I don't understand where he went, and, well, he's got to be back here.
- Have you told Rhett yet? - No, no, no, no, no.
Rhett-Rhett ri Rhett rides in three hours.
I'm-I'm not gonna tell Rhett.
No, no, Kathy, you don't understand.
Rhett, it's-it's No, no.
Kathy, do you understand that if Perry's gone, the ranch is gone! Do you get that?! Cecilia, are you all right? Cecilia? Hey.
- You okay? - Yeah, I'm okay.
Are you okay? Yeah.
It's just gonna be a while for the transfer to come through, so Okay, I'll wait.
Excuse me, you can't have that in here.
- What, the gun? Yeah, I can.
- Yeah.
No, I need you to step outside.
Please.
Open carry state.
- I need you to step outside.
- Why can't I wait inside? - I need you to step outside.
- I got a permit, so what's the problem? - Don't fucking tread on me, bitch! - What the fuck did you say?! - It's my goddamn right.
- What the fuck did you say? What, do you want to hold it for me then? I'm not gonna hold your fucking gun.
Are you fucking crazy? - Fuck you.
Fuck you, motherfucker.
- Go outside! Let me know when my fucking money comes through! - Royal's trying to kill you.
- I know.
Not gonna let that happen.

We found what he was looking for.
It's in the ground.
Huh? I think there's more of it.
Do you think it's valuable? Oh I think it's probably the most valuable thing we've ever seen.
I think it's gonna make me a fortune.
Well, get at it.
You figure out what else your dad knew and get at it.
I tried to kill him.
God, I want to kill him.
Did you hear me? No.
I didn't hear you.
Go get it.
I'm-a go get it.
Why are we doing this? So we can eat together as a family when your dad gets back.
- From the rodeo? - Mm-hmm.
But what if Rhett doesn't win? Amy, my family ate every damn meal together every day of the week, no matter what, because that's what families do, okay? Okay.
We're having quite a time at the Amelia County Rodeo Finals tonight, where the champ Matt Olsen now leads the bull riding with a score of 84.
Next up is the first ride for local boy Rhett Abbott, and here we go.
He's out of the chute.
Oh, he's getting knocked around.
He's hanging on, all right, he's hanging on.
And Rhett stays atop Turnbuckle for a great ride.
My God.
Oh my! An excellent ride on a damn mean bull and an impressive start for the son of the former champ, Royal Abbott.

Oh Yeehaw.
What is that? People have told me that grace is a given thing.
And if you seek it, you'll find it.
When I was a kid, I'd go to church and hear the pastor preach the word.
And he'd make me feel everything in my heart.

But when I saw that stray bullet go into his chest and blow all his insides out his back, the world went black.
Like it had ended altogether.
And it hit me that God is everything.
Everything good and everything bad.
You're my family.
And you pushed out that pain for me.
But I held on to it no matter.
And for my entire life, I was afraid of how it might bleed on to all of you.
And it has.
I tried to keep it secret.
I tried to protect you from me.
All of you.
And I'm sorry.
I want to do it different.
I don't want grace.
I just want my family back.
All I want is our family back.
Our family is gone.
It's all gone.
Our children are gone.
Amy's gone.
No, she's not.
