Shooter (2016) s01e09 Episode Script

1 BOB: Previously on "Shooter" - That's six shots.
1,500 yards.
- What's that guy's name? - Lon Scott.
- He's a hell of a shooter.
If we don't start working together Together? I know you're onto Lon Scott, and you are going to need help.
Just because you realized you're expendable doesn't make us partners.
It doesn't mean we don't need to be.
- I need a path out.
- Find Payne.
Get the thumb drive.
I'll fund your IRA.
- [groans.]
- God, you're a dumb-ass.
The thumb drive? LON: They hired Swagger to kill us.
Now he's gonna kill them instead.
You arranged this with Swagger? Worth the risk in order to get my shot at him.
For years, I wanted to be as good as you, but we both know I'm better now.
I'm the sniper.
You're just a marksman.
You could be implicated, too, Lon.
Anhur is all over that thumb drive.
- You know Swagger's here, right? - I had hoped so.
- Why? - Because you failed.
Now I'm gonna finish it.
- Swagger still lives.
- It's being handled.
I don't like the unknown.
Then get out of the espionage business.
Perhaps we'll dig a hole for you, Mr.
Meachum.
Swagger's gone.
He's got Annex B.
KRUKOV: Our mutual friends will not be pleased.
Good-bye, Mr.
Meachum.
Hey, you remember the old Ranger station? Are we in trouble? BOB: I need you and Mary to get there as soon as you can.
Can you slip away quietly? Yes, definitely.
Where are you going? You've always covered for me.
I need you to do it this one last time.
Can I speak to Julie? Simon Porter.
She knows me.
You've got one second to get your foot out of my door - before I break it.
- LON: What do you want, Porter? Julie Swagger's gone.
I'll have someone there within the hour.
Mama needs you underneath the bed, all right? You can't come out until Mama comes back for you.
- Okay? Promise me.
- Promise.
[door shuts.]
- JULIE: Hey! - [gun shots.]
[dramatic music.]
[cell phone vibrating.]
[gun cocks.]
NADINE: Okay.
Howard says we should report them officially kidnapped, and the FBI can start a coordinated operation and find them.
No.
You're underestimating the bureau.
What am I supposed to say when he calls back? I said no, God damn it! I want to find them, too, but we have no chance without help.
We do if we strike first.
You're asking me to violate my oath again.
I'm not asking you to do anything.
- The door's right there.
- Swagger, I Nothing comes before my family! Not the law, not your conscience, not your case.
You can't save your family by killing everyone that stands between you and them.
Maybe, maybe not.
Who are you calling? The asshole who started this.
[cell phone vibrates.]
Hello? We can meet, or I can hunt you down.
All right.
Text me the location.
- I'll come alone.
- I really don't give a shit.
Just be there.
Bob Lee? It's Swagger.
He wants to cut a deal.
- You should get going.
- PAYNE: Yeah.
You didn't really want to be a part of this anyway.
Right? I don't know why you brought this asshole back.
Eat my dick.
Jack, despite his manners, is a value to me.
Especially now.
Don't keep Swagger waiting.
PAYNE: You won't regret giving me a second chance, Lon.
Just focus.
We need to finish this.
Mrs.
Swagger, you're even more beautiful in person than you are on TV.
- And you are? - Someone that can assure the safety of your family.
- As long as you play nice.
- Get them in the van.
Hey, where the hell is Meachum? [Meachum groaning.]
He's alive.
Yes, but he won't be for long.
He crossed one bridge too far.
Good-bye, Mr.
Meachum.
[dramatic music.]
I know you wanted to meet a few hundred yards away.
But that rifle you're carrying tells me it's wise to stop you here.
This needs to end peacefully.
Peace stopped being an option when you put hands on my family.
That wasn't me.
Bob Lee NADINE: Drop your weapon.
[tense music.]
You trained her well.
[grunts.]
Where is my family? What'd I teach you? Take your emotions out of it.
If I was being led by my emotions, you'd be a pile of red dirt right now.
It's Mary and Julie for the thumb drive - and the diamonds.
- Let me guess.
You'll give us your word that everything will go smoothly? I know my word doesn't mean shit to you [panting.]
But they want what they want, and they're willing to do whatever it takes.
They're not fucking around.
They buried Meachum for letting that thumb drive get away.
And what do you get out of it? - I disappear.
- What? With the diamonds? All this for money? All this so my wife and I can make it to safety and build a new life.
And you get it out of her head, you're not collaring these guys.
Annex B for your family.
Do you understand? There's no other play.
Fine, but you play for my team until this is over.
ISAAC: Agreed.
If Daddy had to run If he had to crawl both: If he had to swim 100 rivers Just to climb 1,000 walls Always know that he would find a way To get to where you are [clapping.]
That was beautiful.
Don't stop because of me.
I can't wait for him to get his hands on you.
[chuckles.]
Yeah, well been there, done that, and I'm still standing.
Well, I'm sitting, but - Mommy, I'm scared.
- No.
Don't be.
I'm right here.
You're not the one who should be scared.
Hold it.
How did our friend take the news? Meachum is no longer my problem.
He failed us one too many times.
That seemed inevitable.
Are you my problem, Lon? [chuckles.]
You mean because you hired Swagger to kill me for $10 million? Yeah.
My understanding is, you made the same deal.
When you want to kill a wolf, sometimes you need some sheep.
[door opens.]
Was disarming me really necessary? I don't trust you.
- You spoke to Swagger.
- He's on a long gun.
I'd stay away from any windows.
- He's outside right now? - Yeah.
And he has Special Agent Memphis with him.
KRUKOV: I don't care who's with him.
Is he willing to give us Annex B? As soon as his family is free, yes.
Evidence first, then family.
We are holding all the cards.
Swagger doesn't care about the computer file.
ISAAC: He cares about being double-crossed, and we haven't given him a reason to trust us.
If he was worried about trust, we'd already be dead.
Set up the deal.
He's gonna want to know that his family's alive.
Looks like we have a deal.
That's the first good thing I've heard all day.
He has us scoped right now, doesn't he? Yep.
I can feel it.
My God, it's exhilarating.
Lon, it's really not.
Isaac would be first.
He's smart under fire, calm.
Krukov would be next.
He's FSB, so he's well-trained.
Lon Scott would be last.
He's got good instincts, but he has no idea what to do when the target fires back.
He'll freeze up and I'd smoke him.
He won't do it, even though he's dying to.
NADINE: Bob Lee.
Think about Julie and Mary.
You start shooting, they'll kill them.
Bang.
Bang.
Bang.
Bullet is forever.
ISAAC: You tell me to meet you here, then you make me wait? Gotta to make sure you weren't followed.
You chose to hole up in an FBI front company, and you're worried about me compromising security? Look around.
That op is over.
Enough.
Is my family alive? Call this number.
Let me call it in.
Calling the FBI is not a part of the plan.
You're not dictating the terms.
[phone dialing.]
Hey, it's Memphis.
Yeah, let me get a trace on a number.
Okay, thanks.
804-026-1378.
Okay, we got it.
[cell phone vibrates.]
[Julie whispering.]
Bob Lee, I've missed you.
Put my wife on the phone.
Well, you could at least ask me politely.
Put my wife on the phone now.
Honey, it's for you.
- Bob Lee? - BOB: I'm here, Julie.
Baby, I'm so sorry.
I don't know what happened.
- We were - Baby, stop it.
You didn't do anything wrong.
Is Mary okay? Yeah, of course.
She's your daughter.
She'll be better when she gets to see you.
Let me talk to her.
Okay, hold on.
Mary, it's Daddy.
Daddy Where are you? I miss you so much, kitten-mouse.
I'm gonna see you real soon.
When? WOMAN: Ooh ooh ooh Tonight.
I promise.
WOMAN: Ooh ooh ooh Remember, Daddy loves you both so much.
WOMAN: Ahh ahh - We love you too.
- JULIE: Hey Daddy! Mary? Julie! PAYNE: All right, so, you got what you wanted.
Put my wife back on the phone.
PAYNE: We'll send further instructions.
It's okay.
It's okay.
WOMAN: Maybe I'm not scared Daddy's gonna come for us.
I promise.
WOMAN: What you're thinking now You've seen me here Did you get it? WOMAN: And held me miles away Okay.
Thanks.
83 Bowan Road, Arlington, Virginia.
It's in an industrial park owned by Anher.
All right.
FBI better not come.
You're jeopardizing everything.
- We have a deal.
- A deal? You really think they're gonna let you walk away with the diamonds after I'm dead? You think I'm getting too emotional.
They don't trust you.
Hell, they probably don't even like you.
One way or another, this ends in blood.
Look, all I want to do is get as far away from here as I can and never come back.
If you just gave me what I want, I'd be on my way.
I'm not giving you shit! You lit the fuse when you drove down my driveway and you're gonna see it through to the end.
That's true, but I don't see a way we walk out of this alive.
I get my wife and daughter back.
She gets the evidence.
Then, you can fuck off with your diamonds.
They're never gonna let that happen.
Look at it this way, Isaac.
What choice do you have? Did things go as expected? PAYNE: Yeah, he took the bait.
I'm sure he got a trace on the call.
He'll be coming for his family.
How soon do you think we can expect Swagger? PAYNE: My guess is, they should be here within the hour.
You want me to stick with the plan? Yeah.
I'm on my way.
Make sure we lead him to the right room.
Copy that.
Happy hunting.
[dark music.]
I need you to get all of this.
MP-5s, pistol ammo, rifle ammo, thermal scope.
A 50 cal? If I sign out this much firepower, it's gonna raise eyebrows.
I don't care.
Call it in.
We'll pick it up at the armory on the way.
Okay.
Isaac, go get the thermals.
You can scope out from across the street.
Julie and Mary will be on a floor that's got heavy security.
Wouldn't it be smarter to put me on overwatch? I want you where I can see you.
So you want me to provide overwatch? No, that would give up your position.
I need you to guide me to family and keep up an eye out for any surprises headed our way.
Okay, what about what she can't see? What do you think I'm bringing you for? Are you going somewhere? Have a drink, Grigory.
Relax.
I will have a drink when this business is over.
And since we're now partners, I think it's not out of the question for me to want to know what you are planning.
You're not my partner, and I suggest you show a little more gratitude for the hospitality I've shown you.
I am very grateful, but as you guessed, I must confess that I will be much more comfortable if you would allow me to send some of my people along with you to assist.
So you can get your hands on your precious Annex B? That's fine.
Tell them they're under my command.
But Swagger's mine, so make sure they stay out of my way.
Of course.
Just remember, we did not start this as a way for you to prove you are as good as Swagger.
This is about the map of the world.
I'm better than Swagger.
Get out of my way.
[dark music.]
Only seeing one guard on your side of the building.
He's approaching the door.
Then, it's all clear on this side.
BOB LEE: Okay, copy that.
Travel to location B.
Copy that.
She knows how this is gonna go down? She knows what I am.
- [gunshot.]
- Oh! BOB LEE: How we looking on that side? NADINE: You're clear past the next two landings.
ISAAC: One guard at a back door holding two high-value assets? No way.
They're not assets.
They're my family.
And if they're in here, we're gonna get them.
And if they're not? Then a lot of people are gonna die for no reason.
MAN: I'm in a rave, jump Touch mic and make the place, jump When you hear the bass, jump Mandem, jump, gyaldem, jump NADINE: No heat signatures on this level.
Keep moving up.
MAN: Tell a man take time, jump Mandem, jump, NOV said jump Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump NADINE: I've got thermals on the next level.
MAN: NOV said jump NADINE: Left corridor.
Straight ahead.
30 yards.
We're in.
I see several armed guards on the other side of the building, top floor.
- Any sign of Julie or Mary? - NADINE: Can't tell.
They're too close together.
BOB LEE: Okay.
We're headed that way.
MAN: Wanna act hard, but you won't get a chance So take a chance, blud, know your stance And my lyrical daps from LDN, not France Cut that front.
Don't be careless.
Just try and keep up.
NADINE: They're moving.
- BOB LEE: Moving where? - Away from you.
Towards the west exit.
MAN: NRG in a room, I'll maximize [gunfire.]
They're moving Julie and Mary, let's go.
MAN: I'll blow your mind, jump when I'm inside Okay, I can make out ten guards, but I don't see your family.
BOB LEE: Copy.
We need to take one of them alive, - find out where they are.
- ISAAC: With you.
[gunfire.]
MAN: Touch mic and make the place, jump When you hear the bass, jump Mandem, jump, gyaldem, jump [gunfire.]
MAN: NOV, I bring vibe, jump Tell a man take time, jump Mandem, jump, NOV said [gunfire.]
No, he's mine.
[gunshot.]
I wanted him alive! That wasn't me.
BOB LEE: Payne set us up.
Julie and Mary were never here.
They lured us in here so Lon Scott can get a clear line of sight.
NADINE: What's going on? BOB LEE: Lon Scott's set up on us.
- You got to move.
- Copy that.
I'll get out of sight and guide you guys out.
[dramatic music.]
LON: I see you.
All right.
Wave me over.
Just do it.
There you go.
- [gunshot.]
- [glass shatters.]
Son of a bitch.
- Clear.
- With you.
[dark music.]
KRUKOV: My men tell me Swagger still lives.
I would've had Swagger if one of your men hadn't gotten in my way.
Your obsession with Swagger has clouded your judgment.
I'm starting to wonder who I've more to fear from, him or you.
I think you should leave.
I think you are probably correct.
Thank you for your hospitality, Mr.
Scott.
Any time.
Someone gonna say something? - Leave it alone.
- We need a new plan.
Not to sound like a broken record, but there's no reason not to call in the bureau.
- I can think of a few reasons.
- I didn't ask you.
I care about saving Bob Lee's family.
Then you should know the second Lon Scott gets wind this thing has gone federal, he'll disappear, and what do you think happens to Julie and Mary then? It's not your call.
Isaac's right.
If the feds get involved, I'll never see my family again.
I've got a different idea.
Sorry about your lunch choices.
I'm not much of a cook.
How do you expect us to eat those with our hands tied behinds our backs? They told me to bring you food.
That's food.
[cell phone vibrates.]
- MARY: Mommy - Hey.
KRUKOV: Lon Scott is out of control.
Oh, yeah? Well if you feel that way, Grig, perhaps you should take it up with him.
You really want your fate tied to such a man? PAYNE: Look, if you'd have just paid me, you wouldn't be in this jam.
So quit your bitching.
Lon has a score to settle, and I'm not crossing it.
You have already crossed it.
Yeah, and he let me back in.
So I'm gonna be a good little soldier from this point on.
KRUKOV: I'm glad to hear it, but even the most loyal soldier needs someone to cover his flank.
Even you must realize you're expendable.
[chuckles.]
[dramatic music.]
- Tell Lon Scott I'm here.
- MAN: Hold it right there! Sir, Bob Lee Swagger's here at the gate.
He wants him brought inside.
Do you guys all have the same tailor? Where do you hide the protection? MAN: Shut up.
You're wearing Kevlar, right? MAN: Keep walking.
BOB LEE: Just answer one question.
Is it that Kevlar level 3A, the good shit? [all grunting.]
[gunshots.]
[all grunting.]
- [gasps.]
- You know who I am? Tell Mr.
Scott I'll be in his office.
I know the way.
Is my family alive? It's never been my intent to harm them.
Are you here to kill me? I don't talk about killing, Lon.
I just do it.
I'm clearly more than just talk as well.
You saw what I did to the Ukrainian president.
Too bad everyone thinks the U.
S.
president was the target.
Hey, congratulations on making the most-famous missed shot in history.
[chuckles.]
I'm planning an even longer shot, one that will be a world record.
Oh, yeah? I think your daddy's money has given you false confidence.
Well, my daddy's money didn't give me ability.
You of all people should know that.
Oh, come on, man.
The Black King, your special bullets I could hand you a Stradivarius.
Doesn't mean you'd play like Paganini.
- I don't speak trust fund.
- [chuckles.]
I'll ask again.
Is my family alive? Reaching for my phone.
You could've recorded that at any time.
Speak to them.
- JULIE: Hello? - Baby Bob Lee, hey - Is that Daddy? - Where are you? JULIE: Can you see us? - Yeah, yeah.
- JULIE: Yeah, where are you? I'm right there with you, Julie.
- Believe me.
- Okay.
- Daddy - We love you very Uh.
Where are they? They're safe, and they'll remain safe.
That's disappointing.
This isn't a game, man! It's my family! You let them go, I'll give you that shot you've been hoping for.
I swear.
Once I know they're safe, I'll stand there and let you pop rounds off all day.
You in or not? 'Cause I'm gonna keep coming until I either find them or die, but chances are, it's gonna be someone else's kill, not yours.
Be at the Great Meadow Golf Course, one hour.
If you bring the evidence, you have my word I'll release your family.
You don't give a shit about the evidence.
You're right.
I don't.
I never have.
You can leave the way you came in.
He'll be here.
He never could follow orders.
You want to leave? Go ahead.
You know, if Bob Lee can learn to work with me, you can too.
[laughs softly.]
I wouldn't take his lack of hostility as trust.
All right, ladies, cheer up.
We're going to see your daddy.
Really? Oh, honey, I would never lie to you about something like that.
[dark music.]
- ISAAC: You make a deal? - Yeah, a bad one.
But it's the only chance of saving Julie and Mary.
The exchange is gonna go down at the Great Meadow Golf Course.
We gotta move.
We're gonna need the 50 cal.
Lon Scott wants to take me out with a long shot.
With his skill, he could be shooting from almost any distance with a line of sight.
Don't worry about saving me.
Just make sure Julie and Mary get away safe.
Hey, if something happens to me [engine turns over.]
[phone vibrating.]
- PAYNE: Hello? - KRUKOV: You're on your way? Yeah, but I just want to make sure you realize that if you do this, Lon's coming after you next.
Just focus on getting that evidence and escaping without getting killed.
Oh, don't worry about me.
I figured out a way to make sure I stay alive.
[phone vibrates.]
NADINE: Lon could be set up at any number of possible positions.
He's not near us.
What we're looking at is over 2,000 yards away.
We'd have a hard time seeing him if he was out in the open.
You can make a shot that far? No.
You know what? I'm gonna cover the other side.
It's the only way in.
At least we won't be surprised.
- I have eyes on an SUV.
- ISAAC: Do you see the driver? NADINE: No, I can't make out anyone inside.
Something's up.
A van just pulled up.
What the hell is happening? I don't have a clear view.
It seems like some sort of transfer.
Whatever it is, I don't like it.
[engine turns over.]
Okay, the van's pulling away.
I'm gonna follow the SUV.
No, I need you here.
I have to go.
Damn it.
[phone vibrating.]
[dramatic music.]
So your husband thinks he's a real bad-ass, huh? He practically walks on water? - What'd you do with Mary? - Shut up.
Your husband's gonna die today, Julie.
[grunts.]
[Payne grunting.]
No, no, no.
Stop! What do you think? Do you like it? It was the best I could do on such short notice.
I was gonna use the tape on your head, but I didn't want to mess up your pretty hair.
PAYNE: Okay.
Let's go.
Keep your mouth shut.
Where's my daughter? [muffled screaming.]
- Where's the evidence? - Goddamn it, where's Mary? Hey, you may want to back up there, Bob, before it gets messy.
Okay? If I fall, my weight will pull the trigger, and I'm pretty sure it will decapitate her.
Shit.
Okay.
Payne, where's my daughter? Well, she's a hell of a lot safer than she would be here.
Trust me.
Hey, come on, man.
You had to know you wouldn't live past this moment, right? [bullet whizzes past.]
[gunshot echoes.]
[panting.]
Son of a bitch.
Go.
Bob Lee, go, please.
Baby, it's gonna be okay.
You got to trust me.
[bullet whizzes past.]
[gunshot echoes.]
Well, we both know he's got you bracketed now.
I want your last thought to be about what I'm gonna do to her after you're gone.
Go, go! Please.
Go find Mary.
Go! You've got to trust me.
[explosion.]
[explosion echoes.]
[panting.]
I guess he found my bullet.
What the hell are you doing? [inhales.]
[exhales.]
[gunshot.]
[groans.]
I got it.
Baby, I got it.
[Payne groaning.]
Here.
Here.
[screaming.]
Let me do it.
[Payne groaning.]
Aah! I'm only gonna ask you this once.
[screaming.]
[Payne groans.]
Where the hell is my daughter? [laughs.]
You'll never shoot.
[groaning.]
You're a housewife.
I'm a Swagger.
We have to find Mary.
We have to.
Some man took her from the back of the a van a few minutes ago.
- Look, we have to get her.
- We are gonna get her back.
- We have to.
- Okay? - No, no.
No.
- Yes, yes.
Calm down.
If we lose our heads, we lose everything.
No, listen, listen, you don't you don't know where she is.
You don't know who took her.
What's going on? We have to go to the FBI.
- You do that, they'll kill her.
- What? - Sweetheart, he's with me.
- What? - It's complicated, honey.
- What? - It's complicated.
- No, it's not.
That is the asshole who started all of this.
And I'm the asshole who's gonna help end it.
We got to clear this location now.
No, I don't trust him.
I don't trust him.
You don't have to trust him.
Trust me.
If I didn't think he could help us get Mary back, he wouldn't be here.
[cell phone vibrates.]
- Hello? - NADINE: Thank God, you're alive.
Someone took Mary.
I know.
Krukov has her.
I followed them, but I've gone as far as I can go.
What do you mean, "As far as you can go"? You lost them? No.
I'm Where are they? [unintelligible chatter.]
She's in Russia.
