Filthy Rich (2020) s01e09 Episode Script

1
The path that you chose for me,
but to where, to what?
I'm trapped, and
I'll never be free.
A man is dead.
Reverend Thomas paid
your pilot to take a dive.
It was really a suicide mission.
My grandson, missing.
Was any of this
part of your plan?
You made your choice, and
you will let me make mine.
It's called an abortion.
The Lord and I
may not forgive you!
Are you tricking me?
Are you testing me?
Because I will do
whatever it is I have to do.
Mommy's gotta take
care of some business.
I gotta make one more move.
It's all been
leading up to this.
You're a liability.
No, I'm the witness!
- Call 911!
- The baby's coming.
Speak to me, Lord.
Go on, now. Speak to me.
I said speak!
A child is lost.
No.
Not lost.
Taken.
34 hours ago, our baby
boy Jesús was kidnapped
by a man called Hagamond Sheen.
Now while the police
and the FBI search
for this criminal,
I want to assure him
that the strength of my
family's faith will prevail
and bring Jesús back to us.
Our hearts are shattered.
My friends, we need a miracle.
Thank you for the tip.
This is all my fault.
I went off with a man, and
I left Jesús alone.
The only judgment
that matters is God's,
and he forgives.
It's what he does. Trust me.
How are you not mad at me?
Hey, look, no one is
gonna punish you any more
than you are punishing yourself.
And frankly, we do not have
time to indulge that right now.
God loves me, God loves
you, and your phone is ringing.
Save Jesús, this is Rachel.
I took things too far. I
pushed the wrong people.
First time I put
on a pair of gloves
at Primo Manolito's gym,
do you remember
what you told me?
You said if you're
still standing,
you're still fighting.
- And he's out there, Ma.
- I wish I could believe that.
What was all that talk
about being a guerrero?
Now if you give
up, I've got nothing.
Please.
Please don't take my hope.
These pitiable
people don't realize
that with your
glory as my shield,
they can never touch me.
That thy will shall be done,
and thy faith in me
And thy faith in me rewarded.
Thank you, my savior.
Hey, it's me.
You need to come
over after the fight.
I have some really big
news about your dad
and what happened, okay?
See you soon.
He never said what it was?
The big news about Eugene?
- No.
- Eugene's death
Luke's murder, Becky's
attack, now Jesús?
Hagamond Sheen is
connected to all of it.
When I was at Luke's,
he showed me something.
He was putting
together a crime board.
Hagamond, the 18:20,
the Reverend, Eugene,
me, you, Margaret,
we were all on it.
He believed that my
father was murdered.
He told me the same thing.
If I had been there,
he'd still be alive.
No, he wouldn't.
You'd both be dead.
I don't know where I belong.
Where can I go?
There's no safe place for me.
There are people who
need you right now.
Like it or not,
since Eugene died,
there are more
folks in your life.
Some you've touched,
some that have touched you.
Be there for them.
I'll dig in,
see what the police
found at Luke's.
I can't help but wonder
if I had given birth
while that man was still there,
that'd be my baby
that was taken.
The Lord kept her safe.
I have to believe it's 'cause
he wants us to work things out.
Be the family we're
supposed to be.
But you and I are not
meant to be together.
You need to see that.
A child's missing.
You should go help.
I love you, Beck.
Were you hurt?
No. I'm fine.
Okay.
I really appreciate
you bailing me out.
Seriously, I do.
There's something
I need to tell you,
about me.
- Um
- Mark Conley.
Jason's brother.
The police, they
told me everything.
You should've let me rot.
I couldn't do that
to my son's brother.
You knew him better than anyone.
There's a part of him
that lives inside you.
Share him with me.
I lost my child,
but I found you.
What was I thinking,
giving you the
key to the room
I didn't protect you.
It was supposed to be me.
Self-flagellation is
not a good look on you.
He wasn't surprised to see me.
He was looking for me.
The whole world's gone to hell,
and you act like
it's just another day.
All my selfish concerns,
my wants, my fears
They don't matter anymore.
She is everything.
So I guess it's a good thing
that I'm out of
the picture then?
Does she have a name?
I'm not ready to tell her
who she's supposed to be yet.
A name is the first thing
that defines a person.
It defines them forever
without their consent.
I want her to be free as
long as she possibly can.
That's sweet.
You taught me how
lovely it is to be free.
- And how dangerous.
- I want to be there for you.
Let me.
You have a savior complex,
just like everybody else.
No, what we had felt special.
Being with you
that's the wrong place for me.
And Eric?
I don't want to talk
about your brother.
You know, I know what it's like
to grow up without
a father in your life.
Don't put her through that.
I'm not saying go back to Eric.
Just make room for him.
You should go home.
I don't have a home. Never did.
Just different walls
and different roofs.
I feel sad for you, Ginger.
I always have.
Back at you, girl.
Ruling it a robbery.
Fifth one this
month in the area.
Have your folks removed anything
from the apartment?
Just the body.
Everything else is as it was.
Anything comes up, you call me.
Margaret, I'm here
for you and your family.
I'm ready to go on the
air whenever you want.
- Please leave.
- I know you're upset.
But, Margaret, you need me.
Need you?
Our baby may be
dead because of you.
Jesús isn't dead.
Hagamond would
never harm that child.
He's a zealot he believes
he's the witness
from Revelations
sent by God to put
Christ back on the throne,
and as insane as it sounds,
he believes that Jesús
is our savior returned.
Why are you so sure about
a madman's intentions?
This is not me, Margaret,
it's the 18:20.
You're fired.
You can't fire me.
You need me.
I leave, my ministry follows.
I forsake any that follow you.
You're canceled, Preacher.
Well, hell's bells.
You came back.
You don't know me.
You used to worship here.
When I was a child.
We used to worship here too.
Ain't this the laugh.
Rich man, poor man,
both of us wind up back
here looking like ten miles
of manure-strewn road.
God's funny like that, ain't he?
She cast me out like
yesterday's garbage.
Who am I without my ministry?
You're a man who rose
from poverty to abundance
and inspired millions in Christ.
Remember where we came from.
Our parents, if you
could even call them that,
their drunkenness,
the hand-me-downs,
days without a meal.
Our faith and your talent,
that's what lifted
us up from despair.
Don't blame me.
Don't blame me for
what he did to you.
It's gonna take me some time
before I can fully
trust you again.
But you're my family, Paul.
Without Eugene Monreaux,
where would we be?
God always has a plan.
Eugene finding us in that
double wide was part of it.
Margaret firing you now,
that's a part of the plan too.
Good things are coming for you.
The baby is a sign of that.
Yeah, I'd like to
believe that, but
You have to stay
strong in your faith.
Your flock will follow
you, and together,
we are going to build a
new and stronger covenant.
Hagamond, I'm told
you're a true believer.
A man of God.
And I know that sometimes,
we all can twist the
meaning of God's words,
turn them into our own
needs and convictions.
Yes.
Truth be known,
I, too, have been
guilty of that myself.
We're all human,
with all of the flaws that
come with our condition.
But our baby boy,
he's not your savior.
He's but a child,
and God will tell you
to return this child to us.
Yes, thank you
so much for the tip.
We'll pass that along.
Okay, well, bless you.
I can tell that you're
uncomfortable.
They're all staring at me, Rose.
They know what I've done.
I have to go.
If you're looking
to forgive yourself,
you're not gonna
be able to do that
unless you know that you
did everything you could
to fix the situation.
Save Jesús, this is Rose.
- Eric, please talk to me.
- I can't.
- I'm so sorry for what happened.
- Rachel, forget it.
- I'm sorry for what we did.
- Rachel, just forget it.
I need you
I need you to look
me in the eyes.
And tell me that
I'm not a bad person.
Rachel, you're an angel.
You're the only good
person I've ever known.
Thank you so much.
I will pass that on.
And have a blessed day.
How was the wake?
It was a wake.
It was terrible. How are you?
I mean, I'm just doing my
part like everybody else.
No, I mean, how are you
feeling after New York?
Well, I'm feeling guilty,
I'm feeling sad, anxious,
but all of that is about Jesús.
So, yeah, I am feeling
a lot of things today,
but I don't think any of them
have anything to
do with New York.
You sure?
Answer your phone.
Will you please write legibly?
Well, thank you. We
appreciate your prayers.
You saw Jesús in Cancún?
Two weeks ago.
That's not him, but
thank you for calling.
Thank you so much.
Hey.
Does anyone want some coffee?
- No, thank you.
- I'm good.
I'm gonna get some coffee.
If you could just
answer on the first ring.
How are you doing?
I just got back from New York.
I just got out of jail.
I can't believe you
beat up that jackass
to defend my honor.
I mean, he had it
coming, and thank you.
But please don't do
anything like that again.
I reacted badly, I know that.
Um, but there's something else.
When the cops came for me,
I told them who I really am.
You told them
you're Mark Conley?
The lie had just gotten so
big, it was killing me inside.
I mean, the consequences
of keeping it going,
I-I couldn't anymore.
So what happened in New York?
Save Jesús, this is Rose.
Heavenly Father,
I'm humbled in my faith
in the knowledge
that if you are for me,
who could be against me?
This is but a test
of my resolve.
Like the prophets before me,
I will rise to the greater glory
that you have destined for me,
for my sister and the baby
And for my ministry.
I can feel it, Lord.
You need help.
Let me help you.
That's what you
said the day we met,
and then you gave me the book.
You taught me how
to read it correctly
in order to find
its deepest truth,
and I did.
You misunderstood me.
No, you misunderstood.
You're up in here praying
about God's plan for you,
but what your soft
mind can't fathom
is that God's plan for you,
Reverend, was to birth me.
Come on, now.
Hagamond, I am a simple
man, and so are you.
No, I am bringing
prophecy to fruition.
You're not the
witness, Hagamond.
You're not the witness.
You're my greatest sin.
You played your part well, Paul.
Time to go home.
Heavenly Father,
forgive me, for I have
To all of the people
looking for my son,
thank you.
I'm just a kid from
New York, you know,
and, um, what you're doing
Hagamond Sheen, my name
is Yolanda Rivera Candalaria.
Jesús is my grandson.
You're looking at
a broken woman.
My heart and my spirit
are broken by you.
And I should hate you,
but something in me tells me
I should try to understand you.
You need to tell me what
happened in Colorado.
You're not pregnant
anymore, are you?
No, I'm not.
How are you feeling about that?
Like I hated going
through it without you.
Please, I'm begging you.
If you have a drop of decency,
please find it, and please
Please bring Jesús
home to us, please.
Bring him back to us, please.
Please.
The leads keep coming up empty.
The FBI says that
after this many hours,
that there's little
No, we keep going.
We never give up.
Eric, I need you.
We need everyone.
You too, Ginger.
No, you don't want me.
All of this, all
that's happened,
I'm poison.
Don't you ever say
anything like that
about yourself ever again.
With Becky and Luke. It
was supposed to be me.
He was looking for me.
If that is true, then you
being here, right now,
that proves God
wants you here with us.
- Now, where's Rose?
- I'm right here, Mama.
Rose, I need all of
my children with me.
I keep waiting for a miracle.
Now it's time to make one.
You know, I remember once
sitting in that pew over there,
knowing that there
wasn't gonna be
any food on the
table afterwards,
and praying for
some kind of miracle
to fill our stomachs.
And church lets out,
and we go to our car,
and guess what we find?
A car full of groceries.
Like manna from heaven.
That miracle, that
was my mother.
She did that.
Your mother was
a bona fide angel.
Always there for everybody.
You know that car out front?
Yeah, what about it?
- Reckon we could hotwire it?
- No need to.
It's my car.
I mean, she runs like
a three-legged dog,
but she gets you where you go.
No more hiding.
Let's pray.
Dear Lord, our Father,
hear us united in our cause
to bring an innocent
home to safety.
A man who, through his pain,
trespassed on our family.
Show this sinner, Lord,
the power that is yours.
Soften his heart so that he
may see the error of his ways.
Preach.
Fill our hearts with
your spirit, Lord.
Praise the Lord!
- Hallelujah!
- Praise the Lord!
Hear us, Lord.
We pray not just
for our lost child,
but for all lost
children the world over.
Children who have been taken.
Children without a home.
Show them your love.
Bring them peace.
Bring them home.
Bring them to a place
where they are nurtured,
dignified, and sanctified!
Amen!
Amen.
Hallelujah.
One way to Vegas.
Before, when you woke me up,
you were praying about
God's plan for your life.
Think you found it?
You forget how to talk or what?
Howard!
It's okay.
I think maybe we've
found our purpose.
That said, I think we
ought to ease out of here.
I'm ready, my Lord.
Let's celebrate!
Making these miracles,
well, it's exhausting.
I think that we
could all use a rest.
And frankly, I need to
change these clothes.
Thank you from the
bottom of our hearts.
God bless you all!
And we're out!
What?
She says thank you
for being such a badass.
None of this would've happened
if I'd been there like
I was supposed to.
- Stop saying that.
- No, you fought for my baby.
And you put
yourself in the ring.
And I will never forget that.
Not ever.
We should count our blessings.
As Margaret says,
the Lord certainly works
in mysterious ways.
Yeah, he brought my baby back.
And now you own 16%
of the Sunshine Network.
Wait, what?
I made a deal with Don
Bouchard after the fight.
I took his shares,
and now they're yours.
That's why you thought
this was all your fault.
The things you do for your kids.
I splurged on the good stuff.
Well, not every day
a psychopath's killed
and a missing child is saved.
And you gained 10
million new subscribers.
I think maybe you
need a vacation.
Yeah, I may go on one
of those rich people trips.
How do you think I'd look
on a private island in Belize?
- Lost.
- Rich, lost, and happy.
That's my new mantra.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
You were amazing out there.
Well, we all came
together in God's will.
You could've left, Ginger.
You chose to be
a part of this family,
and you will forever
have a home here with us.
Thank you.
Let's go out to the
camp this weekend.
Spend some time,
get to know each other.
Like we should've
from the beginning.
I'd like that.
We'll leave in half an hour.
Okay.
I need to talk to you alone.
Mama, I've
I've done a horrible thing.
You know, something
Something unforgiveable.
Well, whatever you've done, son,
Franklin, he can fix it.
God forgives,
and this family is
blessed in his eyes.
So, I'm gonna
tell you this thing,
even though it means
I might lose you.
Colorado.
My brother
well, your brother
He told me, when
he first woke up
The first thing he
saw was Eugene.
He saw Daddy?
And I've never
really had much faith.
I mean, not really.
But when he told me
that he saw Eugene
I believed him.
And then when he said he
wanted to see him again
Right then, I knew
what that meant.
Jason asked me to
help him move on.
So I did.
He was ready.
I helped my brother die.
Mark.
What would God say about that?
I mean, I would
never speak for God,
but, speaking for myself,
I think that you are generous,
and loving and wonderful.
You're kind.
The world is a
scary place, isn't it?
Yeah.
It really is.
That reporter, Luke,
he was trying to ruin everything
you and I have been
working so hard to fix.
He had us up on his
wall, like criminals.
And I tried to explain to
him youyou did not deserve
to be up there with
Daddy and all of his sins.
You didn't, but he
would not listen.
I was just trying to
take your picture down,
and Luke got in the way.
Then he grabbed me,
and so, you know, I shoved him,
then he fell back, and there was
there was this
crack, and a whimper,
and there was blood.
- There was so much blood, Ma.
- I'm sorry.
And I ran like a coward.
I left a man to die.
I left a man to die alone, Mama.
Just tell me what to do.
I don't know what to do.
Eric, you listen
to me carefully.
Right now, your job
is to be with Becky
and your newborn baby girl.
Now, you stop crying.
Stand up straight.
No son of mine is a killer,
and no grandchild of
mine will grow up fatherless.
Yeah, but, Mama
I will fix this.
Go home.
Your voice is really beautiful.
You sing, and, I don't know,
it's like I hear the
sound of grace.
I'm such a sinner.
You want to see my list?
So you cheated on
Becky with Rachel.
You made a mistake.
You don't know anything.
I know scripture,
and there isn't a sin
that can't be atoned.
Think about King David.
Cheating on his
wife with Bathsheba.
That man killed people.
And yet, not only
is he forgiven,
but he is favored by God,
because his good deeds
outweighed his transgressions.
Yeah. Yeah, I'm not King David.
No, but you are a decent man,
who wants to do the right thing,
like be a father to his kid.
Becky wants
nothing to do with me.
Can't blame her.
I didn't know our dad.
I only knew the
version I saw on TV.
Kind, funny,
probably always
smelled like vanilla.
But since I got to New Orleans,
people keep telling me
about all the awful
things Eugene did,
things that the Eugene in my
head wouldn't ever have done.
But he did. He did.
You need to go home.
You gotta be exhausted.
Luke's legacy.
Where did you get all these?
Eric. Stupid.
Has he told anyone else?
No.
Good.
As long as he keeps his
head down and his mouth shut,
it should all blow over,
but none of this can be here.
You leave it be.
You've taken care of enough.
This is the hardest
day of your life.
I got this.
You want to know the
hardest day of my life?
That was December
2nd of last year.
The day Eugene died.
He was wearing
his usual cream suit
with a fresh white
pocket square.
We rode home from the studio.
We were listening to Patsy
Cline's "I Fall to Pieces."
It's vivid in my
mind, photographic.
They say trauma does that.
How God has tested you.
It is a miracle that
you're still sane.
But, December 1st.
Now, that's what I'm
having trouble with.
The day $15 million
was transferred
into the bank account
of Eugene's pilot.
Tell me something, Franklin.
Why would Eugene pay a dead man
the day before he dies?
I remember a
different day, Margaret.
Your debutante ball.
We were supposed to meet
for a picnic down by the river,
but you never showed.
Franklin? Where are you?
You were dancing with Eugene
while I was choking
on my own blood
Franklin!
Courtesy of your fine
husband and his friends.
He is the father of my children.
He is the father
of many children.
How he treated you with
all those other women.
Damn it, Margaret!
Everything that I have ever
done was in your best interest!
I have always done
my best for you!
Really?
Then why didn't you name me CEO?
You and Eric weren't ready.
I know this business
better than anyone,
how it was built, how
it sustain, and yes,
I know where the
bodies are buried.
Now, why was I passed over?
You're not blood, Franklin.
Well, there it is.
Trust me, I knows I's the help.
I am the only man
that's ever loved you,
but if you try to take
me down for Eugene,
I will take your son with me.
- You get out.
- Yessum.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Intense day?
That it was.
Do you really think
Hagamond killed Luke?
That not your theory anymore?
It's just the knock on
the door is bugging me.
Hagamond Sheen
was a professional.
When he grabbed me,
it was quick and silent.
So why, with Luke
You're gonna make
yourself crazy with all that.
Sometimes the simplest
answer is the answer.
Yeah, but the simple
answer doesn't make sense.
Do you know where Margaret is?
I was supposed to meet
her, go with her to the camp.
And, I don't know,
I'm actually looking forward
to being in that house with her.
Do you believe that?
Margaret won't be
up for that after all.
But I'm supposed
to wait for her.
You'll waste your
life waiting for her, kid.
You're family now.
We're millionaires now.
What the hell are we
doing in this dump?
Thanks for driving us.
Yeah, it's the least I could do.
- Hey, there.
- My God.
I totally forgot
you got out today.
There was a lot
going on. It's okay.
I got a ride. An old
friend surprised me.
An old friend?
What's that smell?
- I'm cooking.
- You cooked?
For three?
Hello, Ginger.
I hate to ask for more, God
You've already given so much,
but I need another sign.
I need you to show me
that a mother's way is right.
Rose!
Rosie, is everything all right?
Yeah, I couldn't be better.
I'm getting married.
