Ice (2016) s01e09 Episode Script

The Cut

1 Previously, on Ice [Ava.]
: Sarah asked me to come by and get her things.
Listen to me.
You keep your fucking nose out of my marriage.
Are you threatening me, Cam? I need him gone.
[Lady Rah.]
: Pieter has something of mine that I have to ensure is safe before his departure, so we wait.
Jake and Freddy, we were friends at one point.
I know the way they think.
I know their world, so when it comes to this case, I am an asset.
[Ava.]
: You need to find a new supplier.
[Freddy.]
: I'm pretty sure I can get a meeting with someone who can help us get into the Russian syndicate.
It's called Kocoma.
[Freddy.]
: Natalya Brekov.
We'd like to start with a million-dollar purchase.
[Cam.]
: We have a problem.
Freddy and Ava, they're off to Kocoma.
They've set up a buy.
We have to eliminate every single one of their suppliers.
Passports, please! No, we, uh, we just went through Immigration.
We're fine.
Turn around.
You're under arrest.
Get me something I can use a soft, fleshy spot something that he holds dear.
[gunshot.]
You've found her? Yes, and she's in good health.
She's been in Los Angeles ever since Mr.
Van De Bruin arrived.
My faith is restored.
When can I see her? We have to pay our friend who found her first, then he will tell us where she is.
Give it all to him and make it fast.
Time is running out.
May God give you the wind at your back, child.
I owe you so much.
[banging.]
[Ava.]
: Hello? Can anyone hear me? We need water! [banging.]
Hello? [loud banging.]
Can anyone hear me? We need water! [banging.]
We need water! You know, they're probably just out picking up Chinese food for us or something.
You all right? Sorry, dumb question.
It's been 12 hours since we've seen anybody.
You ever been to jail? And what do you think? I don't know.
You could have some weird, dark past I don't know about.
Come to think of it, there was a string of murders in the Southern California area right before you hooked up with Jake, and I was always - suspicious.
- [laughs.]
Oh, you must be cold.
Come here.
Um I should have offered this to you like, 10 hours ago.
There we go.
Watch out for the, uh - Yeah.
- The hepatitis streak there.
I'm kind of freaking out.
Yeah, me too.
You really don't think Natalya set us up? No! No.
She's making $100,000 on every million, 10% of every sale.
Why would she do this? She's not going to let us rot in here.
What I'm really worried about is missing this meeting.
You don't get second chances at a place like Kocoma.
If Natalya stole our money, Kocoma doesn't matter.
We need to get the fuck out of here.
Yeah.
Well, I've got an idea.
Do you have a hairpin? 'Cause [giggles.]
[Lady Rah.]
: Motherfucker! Are you out of your fucking mind? I told you to watch him, not kill him.
Let's be perfectly clear about what you said.
You said you wanted to hurt Pieter, and we both know what that meant, so what difference does it make if it was now or later? Because you don't do anything unless I tell you to! Never! Do you know what happens if Pieter finds out? Hmm? Palesa is dead, I am dead, and you are very fucking dead.
So you better pray he doesn't.
Tell me no one saw you.
- Somebody might have - Someone what? Someone might have seen me.
There was a car in the garage.
Well it won't be long until Pieter or the cops find that someone.
I need to find my daughter and get out of this fucked-up country.
I'll deal with you later.
Now get out of my sight.
[screams.]
[.]
I'm talkin', he talks I listen GPS on my position Just livin', just hanging out with the opposition Can't take the heat get the fuck out the kitchen Stupid y'all think I'm just spittin' I belong in prison Crazy by my own admission on a mission So grab a podium, audience Let me tell the public that I'm self-destructive I ain't lookin' for no help Fuck it Looking for a way to get high I'm still alive Six million ways to die Still a few more left to try 'Til I'm finished Devil's got a hold on me Devil's got a hold on me Devil's got a hold on me We have very little time.
Well, Ava and Freddy are being detained in Moscow, just long enough for them to miss their appointment.
You really think that'll be enough? We cannot afford to have it go through.
Kocoma won't like being stood up.
They'll have to forfeit the diamonds, so you see, I killed the deal.
I did exactly what you asked me to.
What's wrong? Yesterday Vincent was murdered.
- Jesus - Assassinated.
Didn't stand a chance.
The police have no idea.
Not a clue.
Do you have an inkling as to who may have been behind this? - It's got to be Lady Rah.
- No, no.
She's not that dumb.
Okay, um [exhales.]
I mean, what are we going to do? I I guess we do like we did in Algiers.
We adapt.
Gael, Vincent's brother, is coming here.
- Maybe we could work with him.
- Fuck me, why? I don't know, Cameron.
I do not know! Why not kill me? Because when I find them they will wish that they had killed me.
Well this better be important, Jacob.
It's time.
For a swim? To kill Pieter.
I believe I've already told you calm the fuck down.
I am fucking calm.
I also know that the timing is perfect.
Okay? My family is out of town, and besides, Rah I thought that you wanted this? Lala killed Vincent.
Now, why would she go and do something like that? I don't know, Jacob.
She fucked up.
Or maybe she's setting you up.
What do you mean? You know she's fucking Cam, right? [laughs.]
You you don't know that? So you think that she's working for Cam? Well, I can't imagine it's love.
Look I thought she was working Cam for you, but either way, it's all the more reason to deal with Pieter now.
I am this close to finding my daughter.
So no.
We wait.
Okay.
We wait but you better find her fast, because if he comes at me again I'm going to put him in the ground.
Let's go.
Gael, my partner, Cameron.
Cameron, - Vincent's brother, Gael.
- My condolences.
Your brother was a fine man.
Yes, he was though I never accepted his lifestyle.
Well Vincent was not very fond of your lifestyle either, Gael.
- Then we'll leave it at that.
- Thank you.
Thank God our mother, may she rest in peace, isn't alive to see this.
The murderer must be dealt with.
- It will.
- Now you give me a name, or you give me a body, - and you do it soon.
- Cameron is dealing with all that, and nothing that you say or do can make it any more urgent than it already is.
In the meantime, I will make all the arrangements to send my brother home.
[sighs.]
Who do you think there is in the Venezuelan government who can be our liaison? Miguel.
- Miguel? - He worked directly with my brother.
They were close perhaps closer than you think.
- Is the security is in place? - Yes at the agreed-upon price.
Excellent.
Thank you.
[door closes.]
[Cam.]
Please tell me you ain't trusting that drug-dealing fuck? No, Cameron but we cannot cut him out.
His cartel controls most of the Venezuelan government, and we need them to operate the mine, so whether we like it or not, we're doing business with Gael.
We adapt.
Yeah, I guess we do.
- What the fuck? - Are you responsible for this? Of course not.
Listen, I know that you're angry, but we need to leave to go to the Kocoma appointment.
All right, hold up, Hoss.
We've been stuck in this room for 15 hours, so tell me what the fuck happened! Your good friend, Alexi, came to me in L.
A.
, asked me to kill the deal.
Alexi? Apparently, he wasn't acting on his own accord.
Looks like an inside job.
- What do you mean? Ins - [Natalya.]
: Someone in your company, but we'll talk about it later.
We need to go to the Kocoma appointment.
Should I feel nervous? I feel nervous.
Just keep your eyes open for any escape hatches, just in case, but after the night we had, can you blame me? [speaks Russian.]
[responds in Russian.]
All right! Gentlemen.
Natalya! [speaks Russian.]
[speaks Russian.]
These are my associates, Freddy and Ava Green.
- Ciao.
- Welcome to Kocoma.
- Thanks.
- Please, sit.
It will be just a moment while I retrieve your package.
Okay.
After you, please.
[scanner beeps, door unlocks.]
Nobody smiles in your country.
Just saying.
Oh According to the communication I received, you have selected lot number 107.
Thank you.
[muttering.]
There's right, there's Yeah, these are them.
[exhales.]
This is going to be fun.
They're beautiful.
[Man.]
: Excellent.
[Ava.]
: You're sure you're okay with this? [Freddy.]
: Yes! We need to celebrate our new Russian pipeline, and I think this is the perfect spot.
It's not an excuse to start drinking again.
I know, Ava.
Watch.
Watch how I order.
Excuse me, sir? A glass of bubbly for the lady, and I will have a bubbly water.
- See what I did there? - Very good.
Thank you.
Oh, yeah I think I'm going to call Jake and tell him the news.
I think you should.
I think you should! Definitely.
He might be a little um upset, but it's good news, right? - It's great news.
- It's good news.
He's going to love it.
I can't believe you'd lie to me.
You told me you were going somewhere safe.
[Ava, on phone, slight static.]
: I didn't lie to you.
I can't even hear you! Where are you right now? I'm in a bar, and I said I didn't lie.
Well, you sure as hell didn't tell me that you were going to Russia to buy diamonds - with company money.
- It's a good thing.
We needed a supplier, and now we have one.
You forgot this.
Hi, Jake.
Was that my brother? Yes.
What the hell is going on between you two, Ava? - You're joking, right? - What? What's he saying? [Jake.]
: Oh, please.
You take my daughter away, and then you bring Freddy in to live with you, and then now you guys have run off to Russia together, so what is it? [Ava.]
: Come on, Jake! You sound ridiculous.
We're trying to save the business.
No, you have no idea what you're doing.
Kocoma is totally legit.
[Jake.]
: That may be, but the mob controls everything that goes in and out of that country.
Besides, you had no right to do it.
You know, maybe I should have come to you first, Jake, but how could I? You don't want me to be a part of this business, and neither does Cam.
He made that really fucking clear the other day.
What the fuck are you talking about? [Ava.]
: I was at Sarah's, and he took his gun out, and he threatened me, told me to stay away from the business.
I don't deserve that.
Just I've got to go.
Av Ava! Goddammit, man! Did Cam really threaten you? I don't know.
You know, he's kind of hard to read, but it sure as hell seemed like it.
You think he tried to kill the Kocoma deal? I don't know.
I don't think so.
I don't think he would I don't know.
I'll find out.
- Anyway, I don't want to think about it.
- Yeah, me neither.
- We should be celebrating.
- That's right.
We should be.
Another for the lady.
[Cam.]
: Ain't bad stones, huh? What do you think? Jesus What the fuck are you doing here? You can't just turn up without calling first.
Cam, listen to me.
- I'm in trouble.
- Calm down.
Now sit, breathe.
- I don't want a seat! - What the fuck's happening here? It was Rah.
- Rah killed Vincent.
- Jesus Christ, what? And now she's setting me up to take the fall, and Pieter, he's going to want me dead.
- He's going to kill me.
- Shut up! Now we can turn this to our advantage, but you've got to do exactly what I tell you to do.
Do you understand? Good.
[giggling.]
Yeah.
Yeah, Jake, that's what I do.
I bring all my ladies to Russia.
[laughing.]
We're going to be We get a cement room with a bucket.
Do you like that? "Stop laughing!" We swore we would never mention the bucket! I know! Never.
It's our secret.
[giggling.]
Thank you - by the way.
- For what? What do you mean, for what? For For doing that.
For encouraging me.
For thinking that I could get this done.
I mean Jake and Cam would have obviously killed it, and That means so much to me.
- Come on.
- It really does.
You did the same for me.
You believed in me when nobody else thought I had value in the company.
You really do.
[laughs.]
[laughs.]
You do! That was that was Sorry.
I wasn't - It's okay.
Come on - Oh, man, I'm tired.
You must be tired, too.
Amazing stuff today.
I was I'm going to hit it.
I'll see you bright and early, though.
Freddy [Natalya speaks Russian.]
[knocking.]
[knocking.]
Oh, good.
I was hoping I had the right room.
Um - am I bothering you, or ? - No, not at all.
Come inside.
Okay.
I just wanted to, uh say that I know this didn't go, you know, as smoothly as either of us would have liked, but I want to assure you that I'm going to, you know, iron out the wrinkles.
I'm sorry, I have a very strict boundary.
I don't talk about business after hours.
Oh.
Yeah.
That's probably a good rule.
Um, all right, sorry.
But if you'd like to join me for vodka I'm sure we could find something else to talk about.
Where'd you put it, old man? Isaac where'd you hide the stone? Where'd you hide the fucking stone? Come on, come on, come on.
Come on, just fucking tell me.
Give me a signal.
What are you doing in here? Ah I'm just having a chat with your father.
Did you threaten Ava? What are you talking about? You fucking heard me.
Did you threaten my wife? Whoa, whoa, if you're going to come at me, get your facts right.
No, I didn't threaten Ava.
I didn't touch her.
I warned her to stay away from Sarah, told her to keep her fucking nose out of my marriage.
You see, what happens between a man and a woman, it's nobody else's business.
You should know that.
What about your ex-wife and Freddy? They seem to be spending a lot of time together.
You know, like you said, our marriage is none of your fucking business.
My relationship's none of your fucking business.
You know, I know it was you and Pieter who tried to kill me.
You shut your fucking mouth, else I'll pull your tongue out, and I'll feed it to the fucking dogs.
How can you accuse me of this shit, Jake? Now, come on.
You know, all I've ever done is try to protect you and Freddy, you know? You're my family.
[Jake.]
: Family? No, Cam.
We are not your family.
Not anymore.
I want you gone.
Fuck you.
- Morning! - Morning.
Ah, you mind if I hit this? That's good.
- That's really good.
- Have you been drinking? No.
No.
Okay, I had a couple, but it was only because I was with Natalya.
- I didn't want to be rude - Jesus Christ.
- Look - You were drinking with Natalya.
We were talking business, and I we have to go? Look, it was business.
- I was talking business with her.
- We've got to go.
And I had a call - [Natalya.]
: Good morning! - Hey! Natalya! We're just heading off to the airport, so Thank you so much for all of your help.
Hopefully, it will go smoother next time.
- Yes.
- Yeah.
Well, I need to get my things.
We need to get going.
We'll speak to you back in Los Angeles.
Yeah.
- Freddy? - Yeah? You'll sort out your business, right, for next time? Definitely.
[Cam.]
: You have to hear what she's got to say.
And what is it? Lady Rah is the one who killed Vincent? She said she wanted to stomp your heart out with a stiletto, but that she can't because you have her daughter, so she wanted to take what you loved the most.
Really? And she said that to you? I wouldn't lie.
Tell him about the stones.
Rah has a relationship with a nun from Sierra Leone - who brings in diamonds.
- A mule.
So? She is using the money from those diamonds - to find her daughter.
- Is she? [Lala.]
: And once she has her, she's going to have you killed.
She's made a deal with Jake.
Thank you very much for this.
You have been very helpful.
If you would excuse us, please? Jake is a member of your family, Cameron.
What am I to do, then? Fuck him.
He pushed me out of the business.
He's already dead to me.
And if you're not able to acquire your wife's 25%? What then? I'll deal with Sarah, you know.
I got it in hand.
All right, I'm going to head in, get these stones to start working for us.
- Should be fun.
- Okay and will you look into the Alexi thing? Yeah, on it.
Hey Yeah? I think we should talk about what happened with Natalya.
Well, I never kiss and tell.
It's not funny, Freddy.
You could jeopardize everything we've been working for.
I know, I understand, but I've got it under control.
You're drinking again, so I don't think you do.
I'm not drinking again, Ava.
I drank again, once.
I messed up, you know? But what do they say, "three steps forward, two steps back," right? I think you should probably look for another place to stay.
Why is that? Because I told you you could stay here as long as you were clean and sober.
I don't know if you're not ready yet.
I hope that's not the case, but I need to stick to my word.
Yeah, yeah - so you want me out tonight, or ? - No.
No, you can stay here another night or two until Cool, I'll look for a place.
Based on what we heard over the wire, I had the staff pull Ava Green's records to see how deep she was involved.
Anything interesting? Do you want to explain to me why you made several calls to her cell? And if you did call her, why didn't you share that with the task force? I met her before I was involved in the case, and I broke it off immediately when I realized she was involved with the Greens.
We should've been informed, but since we weren't, you have severely compromised our case.
I'm taking charge of this investigation effective immediately.
So what's my position? None.
You're fired.
[phone vibrates.]
Sister Judith? Raawiya, I have someone who wants to talk to you.
Momma? Palesa! Hey, baby.
How are you? You can relax now.
She's safe.
Thank you.
Raawiya, listen very closely.
It won't be long before Van De Bruin finds she's been freed.
So you have to act fast, for her safety and mine.
Can you come and get her at the church? At the church? Yes at the house of God.
The house of God.
Yes.
I'll be there.
We'll be waiting, but come quick, Raawiya.
This better be good, Rah.
Here.
Okay, what's up? I found my daughter.
All right, where is she? Sister Judith said she was at the church, but she was lying.
She won't be there.
Okay, and how do you know she was lying? Because she called me by my formal name, and she would never do that.
It's a code that we have and she said "house of God.
" - Meaning? - In Sierra Leone, we never use that term, always "church.
" "House of God.
" It means they're at Pieter's house.
Okay.
What's the plan? [Freddy.]
: Alexi! Freddy Green.
How's the whiplash? [Alexi, on phone.]
: Why are you calling me? Yeah I just wanted to call and say thanks for doing that job for us.
It went perfectly.
[Alexi.]
: Job? What are you talking about? You knew about this job? Of course, I knew about it.
I was the one that had Cam reach out to you.
[Alexi.]
: Yeah, no shit? Cam didn't tell me nothing about you.
Well, glad it came out good for you.
- Freddy, you there? - All right, man.
Well, I just wanted to say thanks.
I've got to go.
[Cam.]
: Freddy! Freddy! Come here.
We've got to talk, Freddy.
Your brother, he's he's gone off the rails, you know? Maybe it's because your dad died.
I don't know.
He's trying to get rid of me and Sarah He doesn't want to get rid of Aunt Sarah.
Why should I take the fall for this mess? I mean, you started it when you killed Avi.
I'm just trying to protect you.
Did you kill The Baker? [Cam.]
: No, I didn't kill The Baker.
[Freddy.]
: Tell me about Kocoma.
Well, they're well, they're a solid syndicate, yeah.
They can't give us the deal I got with Pieter Van De Bruin.
Tell me about Kocoma! I know what you did, Cam with Alexi.
Okay, kid, uh listen close.
I got one objective here and that's to stop your dad's company from going belly up and because of that, I've had to do some moves that you might not understand, so wind your neck in if you're questioning my motives.
Maybe that's true.
Maybe it isn't.
Either way, my dad he left you out of the will and I've got to respect that.
And that deal, with Kocoma? It went through.
So you see, it's the Russians, and not Pieter Van De Bruin, that will save this company and you're no longer a part of it.
While I'm picking up Palesa, I need you to get to the church.
Sister Judith has some more stones for us, and we're going to need them.
All right.
Good and then meet me at the airport.
Where are we going? I will tell you when we get there.
Look I'm really sorry about what happened with Vincent.
It's okay.
You have always been very loyal to me.
You made a mistake.
I take care of people who take care of me.
Better head to the church.
[Pieter.]
: It's a ritual.
Words giving meaning to action action giving substance to words and I shall be the high priest.
No mistakes tonight.
[door unlocks.]
Hello? Sister Judith? [grunting.]
[grunting.]
[crunching sound.]
Sister Judith? [gasps, chokes.]
I knew it was you who had killed Vincent the moment I watched those spurious words tumble out of your mendacious little mouth.
Did Vincent see you coming? [breathes shakily.]
Did he suffer? Do you? [Lala gasps.]
Give it to me, Lala.
- Give me your last breath.
- [gasps, chokes.]
There.
[exhales, choking.]
[Judith makes muffled sounds.]
[Jake.]
: It's fine! It's fine.
It's fine.
I'm going to get you out of here.
This is going to hurt.
There we go.
Who are you? A friend of Rah's.
Hang on a second.
- Where's the girl? - He took her.
- [Jake.]
: You're free to go.
- [Judith.]
: Watch out! [two silenced gunshots.]
Where's Palesa? Where is she? They took her right after you spoke to her.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
It's okay.
We'll find her.
[sobbing.]
Oh, God Have faith.
You guys have got to get out of here.
Rah, you lost her once.
You found her.
You can find her again, okay? But now you've got to go.
Come on, let's go.
Let's go.
Here we go.
What about you? When the time is right, I'm going to fucking kill him.
Good.
Isaac, my old friend, you cunt.
You promised me 25%.
Instead, you give it to your loon of a fucking sister.
Why? You fucking liar! Fucking liar! You're shit! Shit family! Fuck you! [shatters.]
Cunt.
You know [urinating.]
I spent five years in an Algerian shithole for you.
Oh yeah, just so you could be with your sweet wife and your two fucking kids.
Two fucking pricks! Your fucking family.
You shit.
You shit cunt! You fucking shit cunt! You fucking lied! You fucking lied to me! You fucking liar! Liar! Fucking lied to me! I'm coming.
I'm coming for it, Isaac.
I'm fucking coming for it now.
I fucking promise you.
I fucking promise you.
Cunt.
I'm fucking coming for it now.
Fucking coming for it.
Is Palesa safe? Good.
Thank you.
Well, so much for no mistakes.
Freddy, hi.
It's me again.
I, uh I'm just I'm just checking in.
Call me back.
Get off me.
Fuck off me! I'm fucking leaving! Okay? Don't want to be in your stupid fucking bar anyway.
[belches.]
Oh, fuck.
Fuck you! [coughs, retches, vomit spatters.]
[groans.]
[gasps.]
So sorry to wake you like this, Ava, but I need to get a message to Jake and I thought probably this might be the quickest way.
Gentlemen? You know what to do.
No! No! No! No!
