Mortar
1 Previously on "Outsiders" - Help! - I found him! Big Foster all he knows is intimidation, violence.
And that is why I'm getting the guns.
You wanna purchase more firearms, bring me cash.
You guys looking for some shine? Stop doing business with the Farrells.
Aah! [Alarm rings, glass shatters.]
Oh, uh, Breece Dobbs.
He was the other one.
Whatever you're doing, it's not gonna end well.
All right? You gotta think about your family.
Fella just came in, posted his bail.
Seen Pat or Jake? They got them a bunch of kerosene.
- Sacred land, my ass.
- Sacred land! Come on! Ged-gedyah! - Ged-gedyah! - [Engine revs.]
- You okay, Bren'in? - Nervous about the wedding? You're not gonna go through with the marriage, right? The decision's been made, Asa, and it's real.
Unlike the pretending that you and I have been doing.
I have not been pretending.
Not for one second.
Tomorrow, just before he's taking his vows, I'm gonna kill him.
There are trying times ahead, and we need a Bren'in who cares more about his people - than he does about himself.
- Asa, stop it! Caught one up.
Please, on the lives of my kids, you'll never see me again! Guaranteed, I won't see you again.
- [Gunshot.]
- [Gasps.]
Don't nobody here say that this Bren'in don't protect this clan.
The dawn is up, there's fire on the mountain They'll have to answer for their crooked plan The hollows will surround them And they'll go runnin' Back to the wretched realm they came Nor will the dogs of hell refrain And the land will suffer those who paid [dog barking in distance.]
[Whispering, indistinct conversations.]
[Cellphone rings.]
[Ring, beep.]
Hello? Yeah.
Yeah, just one sec.
[Sighs.]
[Exhales.]
[Sighs heavily.]
Here.
I think I'm gonna sell the house.
- Why? - Because it's old.
I thought I could maybe get somewhere closer to you and the girls.
You know, I mean, if you want to, you can come and stay there with us, or we can come stay here.
Thanks, Wade.
I know you tried to get through to me.
I do thank you for it and Sure, Wade.
I'm gonna find the guy who did it.
And I'm gonna do what I can.
Oh, so, you're gonna do your job now, all of a sudden? Now that my Dad is dead.
- Hey, hey, hey, hilda.
- Thanks a lot.
No, let her, no you do not talk to your uncle that way.
Hilda, no.
You're allowed to talk to me that way.
You can say whatever you like.
If you're angry, you be angry.
Don't sit on it.
- Okay, it's not his fault.
- Don't bottle it up.
And you're right.
Hilda.
You're right.
I could've done something sooner.
Come here.
If you want to be angry, you can be angry, okay? [Crying.]
Come here, honey? She's fine.
Hey, you're okay.
It's all right.
It's okay.
Okay? - What's the matter? You're okay.
- Uh, Wade? [Dog barking in distance.]
That was the M.
E.
The bullet they found in him, it's from a Smith & Wesson, model 10, 1920s issue.
Same spec we recovered from the gun store robbery.
- What? - [Door closes.]
It was a Farrell that killed Breece.
I'm gonna do anything about this, I need to know what you know, so Did he say anything to you? I mean, did he tell you why he was getting together with those guys? I mean, did they say anything about why they busted up that store? Yeah, he said something about Moonshine.
He said that they thought that guy Donnie Was selling Moonshine for the Farrells.
That's what he said.
[Wind howling.]
[Bed creaking.]
[Breathing heavily.]
Come on.
Come on, come on.
[Whispers.]
Oh, come on.
[Breathing heavily.]
One second.
Mm.
- [Panting.]
- [Grunts softly.]
[Exhales.]
[Exhales deeply.]
[Exhales.]
[Inhales sharply, exhales.]
All my life I had the pick of any woman on this mountain.
I had a lot of them, I did, but [Exhales deeply.]
All except the one that I really wanted.
The one I got.
[Breathing heavily.]
The one that I dreamed of.
[Exhales.]
And now that I finally got her [Exhales slowly.]
This.
Yeah.
You were never Bren'in before.
And never when our fate you held in your hands.
It's a lot, Foster.
It's a lot to weigh down on one man.
You're good to me.
And I love you for that.
[Groans.]
You hungry? I made some stew.
[Cupboard opens and closes.]
[Exhales deeply.]
[Match strikes.]
[Knob clicks.]
- [Flames whoosh.]
- [Exhales deeply.]
[Breathing heavily, coughs.]
[Whispers.]
Shit.
Ah.
Good day, cousin Asa.
- How you doing? - Not bad.
You? Oh, anxious, I'd say.
[Coughs.]
Concerned about the life and Liberty of our people.
- [Explosion in distance.]
- Hear that? Yeah, it's kind of hard to miss, ain't it? Sounds like they're working double time.
Sounds like the clock is ticking away, and here you are fiddling with your toenails.
I have a plan, Foster.
You know, good things don't happen overnight.
Oh, but they can As in now.
I'm getting your point here.
Maybe I should go check in, see how things are doing down in Hades.
You wanna join me? Things don't always go so well for me down there.
They're gonna be looking for me.
It's not like I got a big edge on you, but, um, maybe I could put a little pressure on my sales agent.
- You do that.
- Yeah.
[Spits.]
This is your last chance to get this right.
I'll make sure I do the best I can for you.
Well, maybe, uh, maybe I could give you a little bit of help.
Phil'up, you wanna go with him? Um, I don't know.
That's, uh, that's a long way.
Well, I think he could use the company.
Phil'up here will go.
He's a big talker.
Keep you entertained.
Sure.
Uh, and you all come see me the minute you get back, right? All right.
[Coughing.]
[Rock music playing on radio.]
Why are we just sitting here? Shouldn't we go talk to Donnie about it? I mean, we can't go search the place without a warrant.
There was a Farrell selling shine down here a while ago.
I just don't think he's the murdering kind.
- Why not? - He was wearing a skirt.
I mean, for one thing, I mean.
Kilt.
I mean, not that it matters anyway.
- That's the one I tased.
- Yeah.
Yeah, right.
There's another one I came across that somethin' sick about him, like a wounded animal.
Nothing good about him.
- Yeah, I got this, boss.
- No, you go back to the station or you do what you need to do.
- I'm staying here.
- You sure? Yeah.
All right.
[Panting.]
[Groans and coughs.]
[Retching.]
[Groaning.]
[Groans, coughing.]
[Moans and grunts.]
[Groans, retching.]
[Coughs.]
[Groans.]
[Crows cawing.]
What are you doing here? Huh? You're not real.
Get out of here.
Go on, get out.
If you're real, say somethin', all right? If not, get the hell out of here.
[Grunts.]
[Vomits.]
[Exhales deeply.]
Oh, go on.
Get outta here.
Leave me be.
I'll bring weapons and ammunition late tonight or tomorrow morning.
Now while G'winveer's going about her daily tasks at the planthouse, I'll lie in wait for Foster to go on his morning hunt, and then I'll kill him.
What if he don't go for a hunt? Well, in that case, we have enough arms to overpower his sentries.
If we all do it together.
I ain't never shot no gun.
Don't even know if I can.
I'll show you, Krake.
I'll show all of you.
Then we're gonna surround 'em and we're gonna kill 'em.
We're gonna surround his guards and just start shooting our own? That doesn't sound perfectly thought through, Asa.
I know there are risks involved.
So if any of y'all wanna step away, now would be the time.
I ain't gonna judge you.
You won't judge us? You brought my boy's body back from the lowlands.
And I will always be grateful for that.
But we formed this group and brought you in.
We're of equals here.
That's our way.
Only now you're the one telling us the plan and making up the story.
When did that happen? I am the one returned.
The prophecy of lady Ray told it so.
And that prophecy is real.
Now I'm not asking you to believe me now.
When I bring you a whole load of guns, you'll see.
So wish me luck.
[Door creaks.]
[Rattling.]
You know, I used to watch you through the window before we was ever together.
You didn't know about it, did you? It's good to see you.
It's good to see you, too.
I'm glad you're safe.
Is this what you were looking for? This is witches' glove.
I've never tasted anything like it.
Now don't worry.
Just a touch.
You don't know everything that I do.
No, I don't.
I don't need to know everything.
All I need to know is that you are a healer and that that's for the opposite.
Are you killing him, G'win? Is that why he's sick? I'm gonna go now.
I come here to tell you that If you do that, if you walk through that door, there ain't no coming back from it.
[Door opens.]
[Door closes.]
[Door handle jiggles, lock turns.]
[Door creaks.]
[Gasps.]
[Whispers.]
It's a Farrell.
I know you.
Why don't you put that gun down? We ain't hurting nobody.
Neighbors saw you break in.
You got no right to be here.
No, no, no, see, nobody broke in.
Window window's wide open.
Ain't nobody break in.
Yeah, well, one of you just killed somebody, - so I'm taking you in.
- Wait, wait, he didn't do - hey, hey, step back, miss.
- [Yelling over one another.]
He didn't kill anybody, he was with me.
You don't have to do that! - [Grunts.]
- [Screams.]
[Grunting.]
Oh! - [Whack.]
- [Grunts.]
Aah! [Grunting.]
Hasil! [Door opens.]
- [Ball bounces.]
- Whoo.
What you got? - Hey! - About time.
What'd I tell you? What I tell you? [Engines revving.]
Whoa, whoa.
It's all right.
Ah, yeah.
[Engines stop.]
Keep your mouth shut.
I'm here to do business.
Yeah, Donnie said you might be out this way.
Better not just have a sack of shine this time.
Oh, no, sir.
I turn wine into paper.
[Playing video game.]
[rock music playing.]
[Whistles.]
Those are nice.
Bren'in gonna be real happy.
The hell he talking about? Oh, he's just excited about the purchase is all.
Oh, those aren't yours.
Okay.
Come with me.
Mongo he'll stay here.
[Gunfire continues on video game.]
What's wrong? Your shit's up here.
Yeah, I only had enough, uh, for seven based on the price from last time.
Look, why don't we do the exchange down here? You think you know my business better than me? Well, shit, wouldn't I be an asshole if I thought something like that? You sure would.
Look, guys, all I want is what I came here to buy, then [Makes whooshing sound.]
I'm gone.
What he came here to buy.
[Makes whooshing sound.]
[Chuckling.]
Here's your gun, asshole.
Oh, and I'll take my money, thank you.
You were never gonna sell us shit, were you? [Grunts.]
Get 'em out of here.
- [Groans.]
- Get up.
- Come on, get him up.
- [Gun cocks.]
[Groaning.]
[Rain falling.]
[Radio static crackles.]
Two suspects entering the store.
I need a car at the back of the building immediately.
Let me know when you're there.
- Copy that.
- [Static crackles.]
- [Singing indistinctly.]
- [Door bells jingle.]
Hey, hey, what the hey, man! What the hell what the what are you doing, man? Hey.
You piece of shit.
- The Sam hill you doing, man? - You set us up! What the hell you talking about? They took our money, they slapped us in the face, and sent us home.
Oh, you think I had something to do with that? - You're goddamn right.
- Trust me, friend.
[Panting.]
I may be dumb, but I'm not that dumb.
If I was gonna rip you off, it means you're never gonna see me again, much less sitting here working the store.
I told you not to trust those guys.
- So caveat emptor.
- Ah, shit! Hey, and don't forget, I lose on this deal, too.
- We both got screwed.
- All right, easy, easy.
[Rock music playing.]
[Box thuds.]
So what are we gonna do? I'll tell you what we're gonna do Jack squatly unless you got an army to go out there and attack those guys with.
This here is what's known as a life lesson.
[Sighs, panting.]
I'll be seeing you.
Copy that.
[Exhales.]
[Door bells jingle.]
Face down! Face down on the ground right now! Don't say a goddamn word.
I need a car out front.
Need a car out front right away.
[Radio chatter, siren wailing in distance.]
[Siren wailing grows louder.]
[Tires squeal.]
[Telephone rings.]
I'm gonna ask you one more time.
How long you been selling Moonshine out of the hobby shop? Did you ever meet a fella named Breece Dobbs? This is him right here.
We know Breece had it out with Donnie over selling your wine.
But now he's dead.
If you don't start talking, maybe I'll start thinking it was you.
I guess you don't care about spending the rest of your life in jail, 'cause that's what's gonna happen if you know something that you're not telling us.
That's called being an accomplice.
You speak english, right? I guess we're just gonna sit here all day.
[Telephone rings in distance.]
A lawyer.
[Door closes.]
Wondering what you need a lawyer for.
You done something wrong? I have a story I wanna tell him.
Well, you can tell it to me.
Well, it's about a stoned out cop ran over a nice young kid, killed him, tried to cover it up.
You want me to turn that on? 'Cause I will.
I ain't afraid of the truth.
You tell who you like.
I don't care anymore.
Why don't you just tell me what you want and maybe we can strike another deal? I ain't sure I really trust you in the deal department anymore, seeing as how I kept my side of ours, and you went and killed a man.
What are you talking about? Killed who? You recognize him? I saw him at the town meeting, but other than that, no.
I-I don't know him, no.
What's that on his face? Some kind of message? You've gained a little weight, Sheriff.
You're looking good.
What happened? You getting laid? Hmm? You think you're being funny? Why don't you shut your mouth? That's my brother-in-law you're talking 'bout.
- That's my family.
- Well, I'm sorry about that, but I warned him and everybody else not to go up there.
Well, our deal, whatever you might've thought that was, it's off.
I'll get you a public defender, but I'm coming after you for this.
I had nothing to do with this murder.
Yeah, well, good luck proving that.
You're off the pills and booze.
When'd that happen? When you fell in the mine? See, whatever happens up there, we know about it one way or the other.
The fate of Shay Mountain rests with us, Wade.
You and me.
So before you go and kill our paradise, that mountain wanted you to know what it felt like to die, and now you do.
You think on that.
[Groans.]
My guy doesn't know anything.
How 'bout yours? Well, he didn't kill Breece.
- Well, how do you know? - 'Cause I do.
Hey, what difference does it make? We know it was one of their guns.
A Farrell is a Farrell is a Farrell.
Am I right? What? I don't like hearing you talk like that.
Even if you wanted to try to pin it on him, he doesn't have a weapon.
D.
A.
would toss it.
[Sighs.]
So what are we gonna do? Just let 'em go? What? I know who killed your brother-in-law.
- Who? - Our Bren'in.
I can bring him to you.
You know the old Macgregor farm road off route 7? - Yeah.
- Tonight.
You'll get your man.
Oh, and, Wade, see this? This is an ancient symbol from the ruthark.
It means divine protection.
Whichever one of us it was that brought your brother's body down off that mountain, they wanted his spirit to be safe.
[Photo rustles, door closes.]
You know, I slept down here before.
It ain't that bad.
Really? Are you really saying this? I mean, what else are we supposed to do? It's not like we can go back to your place.
Your brother will call the cops on me.
I'm not sleeping down here like some homeless person.
Well, that's what we are.
[Container thuds.]
I thought you told me you had a house.
Your own house with a porch and everything.
Yeah, I do.
Just we can't go up there right now.
Why? You're always telling me how beautiful it is.
- I know.
And it is, but - But what? Do you have a better idea? - [Door opens.]
- Bren'in? [Coughs.]
Foster, we had us a major setback.
Oh, goddamn it.
I knew that you was full of shit.
No, we were ready to do business, and they ripped us off, stole our cash.
Why don't you tell me what the hell happened? It's just like cousin Asa says, Bren'in.
They pulled guns on us and they beat us.
Look, I made a gross miscalculation.
What the hell you doing up here? Why don't you stay down there and take care of it - instead of bothering me? - Because I can't do it alone.
All right, why don't you take Bhradain there, all right? Bhradain, you go, all right? Take him, take him.
[Coughs.]
And take my son, too, if you can find him.
Foster, listen to me, the only reason I came up here was to tell you one thing.
Your people need you.
Only the Bren'in can save us now, you understand? Only you.
- [Radio static crackles.]
- Wade to Dolan.
Wade to Dolan.
What's what's your status? In position.
Copy.
We're in position down here.
He give you a time? Mm, night.
- How you doing? - [Speaks indistinctly.]
Well, we got all set now.
[Chimes tinkling.]
[ATV approaching.]
[Engine revving.]
[Engine stops.]
All right, Joe Phil'up.
Let's go.
[Engines starting.]
[Engines revving.]
[Engines revving.]
[Urinating.]
[Zips pants.]
[Owl hooting in distance.]
[Crickets chirping.]
You hear anything? No.
Mm.
You know, um, when I was down in that, uh, the mine Uh I saw my wife.
[Bird calling in distance.]
And, uh, talked to her.
I mean, she was in another world.
She was good there.
She was all right.
[Engine revving.]
Foster, why'd you stop? What's wrong? [Engines idling.]
Foster! [Breathing heavily.]
We're not going this way.
We have to! It's gonna take too long otherwise! I don't care.
We ain't going this way.
- [Engine revving.]
- No, we have to go this way.
[Under breath.]
Shit.
[Engines revving.]
[Owl hooting in distance.]
[Breathing unevenly.]
They're not coming, Wade.
[Animal howling in distance.]
That him? That the guy who cut your bone off? This isn't a good idea, Foster.
He ain't gonna be alone.
And they're probably gonna be heavily armed.
Well, that's just fine.
[Spits.]
That's what we come here for.
[Coughs.]
This is a really bad idea look, we ain't going back empty-handed, all right? - Go talk to your boy.
- You kidding me? No, let's see how happy he is to see you now.
Go.
Go, go.
[Whispers.]
Go.
- Go.
- Ah, shit.
Bhradain, you go around back.
[Coughs.]
[Music playing faintly in earbuds.]
[Breathing heavily.]
Abel.
Are you nuts sneaking around here like that? - Listen to me.
Go inside.
- What?! Go inside and lock the door right now.
- Who the hell is - [Slashing sound.]
Aah! [Choking.]
[Grunting.]
Hey, hey, hey.
Three of you go inside, all right? See what they got.
See if big boy is right about them, okay? [Whispers.]
Hey, hey, hey, up, up, up.
[Breathing heavily.]
You're up to something, right? You up to something? - I can't figure it out.
- I ain't up to nothing.
You are.
It was you who set us up at that gun store and I know it.
And you're doing it again somehow.
They got a shitload more.
- Good.
Good, good, good, good.
- All right.
Watch they ain't no trap in there.
- [Whispers.]
Ah, shit.
- [Gun cocks.]
All right, now you, your time's come to an end.
We got everything that we need now.
Listen to me, Foster.
I want what you want.
- You got your guns.
- [Coughing.]
Right.
[Glass shatters, rapid gunfire.]
[Panting.]
- [Gunfire continues.]
- Aah! This ain't just me doing this.
I'm doing it for my queen.
That's right.
Your sweet love.
That young girl you left by the side of the road.
She don't just want you gone, she wants you dead.
- [Gun cocks.]
- Okay? Now you say goodbye.
I love you.
[Gunfire continues.]
I always will.
You're my son, Foster.
Ma.
What are you doing here? I only had one son.
But still, you were always my best son.
Why are you doing this, ma? What are you doing? Ma? - [Gunfire continues.]
- Ma.
Ma.
Oh.
Shh.
You're not feeling well.
Ma, what are you what are you doing to me? You chose such a fine woman for your bride.
I love her, ma.
[Laughing.]
You you aren't capable of such a thing! You're poison to all of us.
That ain't true.
I care about this family.
No, you don't.
You killed your son.
Elon is dead because of you.
I didn't.
He was my favorite son, and I loved him.
- You're a demon! - I ain't! No, I ain't! I ain't! I ain't, ma! No, I no, ma.
I ain't a demon, ma.

[Siren continues wailing.]
[Men shouting indistinctly.]
[Indistinct conversations.]
We there yet? A couple more miles.
Seriously? Hasil, I gotta stop.

It ain't a good idea to stop at night.
Why? Because things stay out the way if you're moving.
Now, come on.
Sally-Ann.
Hey.

Come on.
[Footsteps approach.]

Pleasure, Miss.

You, come on, over here.
And nobody sleeps tonight.
- You get that? Nobody sleeps.
- Yes, Bren'in.
[Breathing heavily.]
He scattered when things got rough, that Asa.
No surprise there, huh? [Coughs.]
I was gonna kill him, but I changed my mind.
Why? Were you scared? Why? What would I be scared of? His spirit.
Him not being buried in our earth.
No, his spirit left him when he left us.
I know that you never meant it when you told me you wanted him dead.
You was just biding your time for some reason.
[Coughing.]
He served his purpose.
I'm still gonna kill him.
You're the Bren'in.
Don't you say that.
I don't wanna hear that.
I know.
I know I am the Bren'in! All I wanna know all I wanna know is if [Exhales deeply.]
I just I just wanna know [Breathing heavily.]
[Belt thuds.]
[Keys jingle.]
[Switch clicks.]
And that is why I'm getting the guns.
You wanna purchase more firearms, bring me cash.
You guys looking for some shine? Stop doing business with the Farrells.
Aah! [Alarm rings, glass shatters.]
Oh, uh, Breece Dobbs.
He was the other one.
Whatever you're doing, it's not gonna end well.
All right? You gotta think about your family.
Fella just came in, posted his bail.
Seen Pat or Jake? They got them a bunch of kerosene.
- Sacred land, my ass.
- Sacred land! Come on! Ged-gedyah! - Ged-gedyah! - [Engine revs.]
- You okay, Bren'in? - Nervous about the wedding? You're not gonna go through with the marriage, right? The decision's been made, Asa, and it's real.
Unlike the pretending that you and I have been doing.
I have not been pretending.
Not for one second.
Tomorrow, just before he's taking his vows, I'm gonna kill him.
There are trying times ahead, and we need a Bren'in who cares more about his people - than he does about himself.
- Asa, stop it! Caught one up.
Please, on the lives of my kids, you'll never see me again! Guaranteed, I won't see you again.
- [Gunshot.]
- [Gasps.]
Don't nobody here say that this Bren'in don't protect this clan.
The dawn is up, there's fire on the mountain They'll have to answer for their crooked plan The hollows will surround them And they'll go runnin' Back to the wretched realm they came Nor will the dogs of hell refrain And the land will suffer those who paid [dog barking in distance.]
[Whispering, indistinct conversations.]
[Cellphone rings.]
[Ring, beep.]
Hello? Yeah.
Yeah, just one sec.
[Sighs.]
[Exhales.]
[Sighs heavily.]
Here.
I think I'm gonna sell the house.
- Why? - Because it's old.
I thought I could maybe get somewhere closer to you and the girls.
You know, I mean, if you want to, you can come and stay there with us, or we can come stay here.
Thanks, Wade.
I know you tried to get through to me.
I do thank you for it and Sure, Wade.
I'm gonna find the guy who did it.
And I'm gonna do what I can.
Oh, so, you're gonna do your job now, all of a sudden? Now that my Dad is dead.
- Hey, hey, hey, hilda.
- Thanks a lot.
No, let her, no you do not talk to your uncle that way.
Hilda, no.
You're allowed to talk to me that way.
You can say whatever you like.
If you're angry, you be angry.
Don't sit on it.
- Okay, it's not his fault.
- Don't bottle it up.
And you're right.
Hilda.
You're right.
I could've done something sooner.
Come here.
If you want to be angry, you can be angry, okay? [Crying.]
Come here, honey? She's fine.
Hey, you're okay.
It's all right.
It's okay.
Okay? - What's the matter? You're okay.
- Uh, Wade? [Dog barking in distance.]
That was the M.
E.
The bullet they found in him, it's from a Smith & Wesson, model 10, 1920s issue.
Same spec we recovered from the gun store robbery.
- What? - [Door closes.]
It was a Farrell that killed Breece.
I'm gonna do anything about this, I need to know what you know, so Did he say anything to you? I mean, did he tell you why he was getting together with those guys? I mean, did they say anything about why they busted up that store? Yeah, he said something about Moonshine.
He said that they thought that guy Donnie Was selling Moonshine for the Farrells.
That's what he said.
[Wind howling.]
[Bed creaking.]
[Breathing heavily.]
Come on.
Come on, come on.
[Whispers.]
Oh, come on.
[Breathing heavily.]
One second.
Mm.
- [Panting.]
- [Grunts softly.]
[Exhales.]
[Exhales deeply.]
[Exhales.]
[Inhales sharply, exhales.]
All my life I had the pick of any woman on this mountain.
I had a lot of them, I did, but [Exhales deeply.]
All except the one that I really wanted.
The one I got.
[Breathing heavily.]
The one that I dreamed of.
[Exhales.]
And now that I finally got her [Exhales slowly.]
This.
Yeah.
You were never Bren'in before.
And never when our fate you held in your hands.
It's a lot, Foster.
It's a lot to weigh down on one man.
You're good to me.
And I love you for that.
[Groans.]
You hungry? I made some stew.
[Cupboard opens and closes.]
[Exhales deeply.]
[Match strikes.]
[Knob clicks.]
- [Flames whoosh.]
- [Exhales deeply.]
[Breathing heavily, coughs.]
[Whispers.]
Shit.
Ah.
Good day, cousin Asa.
- How you doing? - Not bad.
You? Oh, anxious, I'd say.
[Coughs.]
Concerned about the life and Liberty of our people.
- [Explosion in distance.]
- Hear that? Yeah, it's kind of hard to miss, ain't it? Sounds like they're working double time.
Sounds like the clock is ticking away, and here you are fiddling with your toenails.
I have a plan, Foster.
You know, good things don't happen overnight.
Oh, but they can As in now.
I'm getting your point here.
Maybe I should go check in, see how things are doing down in Hades.
You wanna join me? Things don't always go so well for me down there.
They're gonna be looking for me.
It's not like I got a big edge on you, but, um, maybe I could put a little pressure on my sales agent.
- You do that.
- Yeah.
[Spits.]
This is your last chance to get this right.
I'll make sure I do the best I can for you.
Well, maybe, uh, maybe I could give you a little bit of help.
Phil'up, you wanna go with him? Um, I don't know.
That's, uh, that's a long way.
Well, I think he could use the company.
Phil'up here will go.
He's a big talker.
Keep you entertained.
Sure.
Uh, and you all come see me the minute you get back, right? All right.
[Coughing.]
[Rock music playing on radio.]
Why are we just sitting here? Shouldn't we go talk to Donnie about it? I mean, we can't go search the place without a warrant.
There was a Farrell selling shine down here a while ago.
I just don't think he's the murdering kind.
- Why not? - He was wearing a skirt.
I mean, for one thing, I mean.
Kilt.
I mean, not that it matters anyway.
- That's the one I tased.
- Yeah.
Yeah, right.
There's another one I came across that somethin' sick about him, like a wounded animal.
Nothing good about him.
- Yeah, I got this, boss.
- No, you go back to the station or you do what you need to do.
- I'm staying here.
- You sure? Yeah.
All right.
[Panting.]
[Groans and coughs.]
[Retching.]
[Groaning.]
[Groans, coughing.]
[Moans and grunts.]
[Groans, retching.]
[Coughs.]
[Groans.]
[Crows cawing.]
What are you doing here? Huh? You're not real.
Get out of here.
Go on, get out.
If you're real, say somethin', all right? If not, get the hell out of here.
[Grunts.]
[Vomits.]
[Exhales deeply.]
Oh, go on.
Get outta here.
Leave me be.
I'll bring weapons and ammunition late tonight or tomorrow morning.
Now while G'winveer's going about her daily tasks at the planthouse, I'll lie in wait for Foster to go on his morning hunt, and then I'll kill him.
What if he don't go for a hunt? Well, in that case, we have enough arms to overpower his sentries.
If we all do it together.
I ain't never shot no gun.
Don't even know if I can.
I'll show you, Krake.
I'll show all of you.
Then we're gonna surround 'em and we're gonna kill 'em.
We're gonna surround his guards and just start shooting our own? That doesn't sound perfectly thought through, Asa.
I know there are risks involved.
So if any of y'all wanna step away, now would be the time.
I ain't gonna judge you.
You won't judge us? You brought my boy's body back from the lowlands.
And I will always be grateful for that.
But we formed this group and brought you in.
We're of equals here.
That's our way.
Only now you're the one telling us the plan and making up the story.
When did that happen? I am the one returned.
The prophecy of lady Ray told it so.
And that prophecy is real.
Now I'm not asking you to believe me now.
When I bring you a whole load of guns, you'll see.
So wish me luck.
[Door creaks.]
[Rattling.]
You know, I used to watch you through the window before we was ever together.
You didn't know about it, did you? It's good to see you.
It's good to see you, too.
I'm glad you're safe.
Is this what you were looking for? This is witches' glove.
I've never tasted anything like it.
Now don't worry.
Just a touch.
You don't know everything that I do.
No, I don't.
I don't need to know everything.
All I need to know is that you are a healer and that that's for the opposite.
Are you killing him, G'win? Is that why he's sick? I'm gonna go now.
I come here to tell you that If you do that, if you walk through that door, there ain't no coming back from it.
[Door opens.]
[Door closes.]
[Door handle jiggles, lock turns.]
[Door creaks.]
[Gasps.]
[Whispers.]
It's a Farrell.
I know you.
Why don't you put that gun down? We ain't hurting nobody.
Neighbors saw you break in.
You got no right to be here.
No, no, no, see, nobody broke in.
Window window's wide open.
Ain't nobody break in.
Yeah, well, one of you just killed somebody, - so I'm taking you in.
- Wait, wait, he didn't do - hey, hey, step back, miss.
- [Yelling over one another.]
He didn't kill anybody, he was with me.
You don't have to do that! - [Grunts.]
- [Screams.]
[Grunting.]
Oh! - [Whack.]
- [Grunts.]
Aah! [Grunting.]
Hasil! [Door opens.]
- [Ball bounces.]
- Whoo.
What you got? - Hey! - About time.
What'd I tell you? What I tell you? [Engines revving.]
Whoa, whoa.
It's all right.
Ah, yeah.
[Engines stop.]
Keep your mouth shut.
I'm here to do business.
Yeah, Donnie said you might be out this way.
Better not just have a sack of shine this time.
Oh, no, sir.
I turn wine into paper.
[Playing video game.]
[rock music playing.]
[Whistles.]
Those are nice.
Bren'in gonna be real happy.
The hell he talking about? Oh, he's just excited about the purchase is all.
Oh, those aren't yours.
Okay.
Come with me.
Mongo he'll stay here.
[Gunfire continues on video game.]
What's wrong? Your shit's up here.
Yeah, I only had enough, uh, for seven based on the price from last time.
Look, why don't we do the exchange down here? You think you know my business better than me? Well, shit, wouldn't I be an asshole if I thought something like that? You sure would.
Look, guys, all I want is what I came here to buy, then [Makes whooshing sound.]
I'm gone.
What he came here to buy.
[Makes whooshing sound.]
[Chuckling.]
Here's your gun, asshole.
Oh, and I'll take my money, thank you.
You were never gonna sell us shit, were you? [Grunts.]
Get 'em out of here.
- [Groans.]
- Get up.
- Come on, get him up.
- [Gun cocks.]
[Groaning.]
[Rain falling.]
[Radio static crackles.]
Two suspects entering the store.
I need a car at the back of the building immediately.
Let me know when you're there.
- Copy that.
- [Static crackles.]
- [Singing indistinctly.]
- [Door bells jingle.]
Hey, hey, what the hey, man! What the hell what the what are you doing, man? Hey.
You piece of shit.
- The Sam hill you doing, man? - You set us up! What the hell you talking about? They took our money, they slapped us in the face, and sent us home.
Oh, you think I had something to do with that? - You're goddamn right.
- Trust me, friend.
[Panting.]
I may be dumb, but I'm not that dumb.
If I was gonna rip you off, it means you're never gonna see me again, much less sitting here working the store.
I told you not to trust those guys.
- So caveat emptor.
- Ah, shit! Hey, and don't forget, I lose on this deal, too.
- We both got screwed.
- All right, easy, easy.
[Rock music playing.]
[Box thuds.]
So what are we gonna do? I'll tell you what we're gonna do Jack squatly unless you got an army to go out there and attack those guys with.
This here is what's known as a life lesson.
[Sighs, panting.]
I'll be seeing you.
Copy that.
[Exhales.]
[Door bells jingle.]
Face down! Face down on the ground right now! Don't say a goddamn word.
I need a car out front.
Need a car out front right away.
[Radio chatter, siren wailing in distance.]
[Siren wailing grows louder.]
[Tires squeal.]
[Telephone rings.]
I'm gonna ask you one more time.
How long you been selling Moonshine out of the hobby shop? Did you ever meet a fella named Breece Dobbs? This is him right here.
We know Breece had it out with Donnie over selling your wine.
But now he's dead.
If you don't start talking, maybe I'll start thinking it was you.
I guess you don't care about spending the rest of your life in jail, 'cause that's what's gonna happen if you know something that you're not telling us.
That's called being an accomplice.
You speak english, right? I guess we're just gonna sit here all day.
[Telephone rings in distance.]
A lawyer.
[Door closes.]
Wondering what you need a lawyer for.
You done something wrong? I have a story I wanna tell him.
Well, you can tell it to me.
Well, it's about a stoned out cop ran over a nice young kid, killed him, tried to cover it up.
You want me to turn that on? 'Cause I will.
I ain't afraid of the truth.
You tell who you like.
I don't care anymore.
Why don't you just tell me what you want and maybe we can strike another deal? I ain't sure I really trust you in the deal department anymore, seeing as how I kept my side of ours, and you went and killed a man.
What are you talking about? Killed who? You recognize him? I saw him at the town meeting, but other than that, no.
I-I don't know him, no.
What's that on his face? Some kind of message? You've gained a little weight, Sheriff.
You're looking good.
What happened? You getting laid? Hmm? You think you're being funny? Why don't you shut your mouth? That's my brother-in-law you're talking 'bout.
- That's my family.
- Well, I'm sorry about that, but I warned him and everybody else not to go up there.
Well, our deal, whatever you might've thought that was, it's off.
I'll get you a public defender, but I'm coming after you for this.
I had nothing to do with this murder.
Yeah, well, good luck proving that.
You're off the pills and booze.
When'd that happen? When you fell in the mine? See, whatever happens up there, we know about it one way or the other.
The fate of Shay Mountain rests with us, Wade.
You and me.
So before you go and kill our paradise, that mountain wanted you to know what it felt like to die, and now you do.
You think on that.
[Groans.]
My guy doesn't know anything.
How 'bout yours? Well, he didn't kill Breece.
- Well, how do you know? - 'Cause I do.
Hey, what difference does it make? We know it was one of their guns.
A Farrell is a Farrell is a Farrell.
Am I right? What? I don't like hearing you talk like that.
Even if you wanted to try to pin it on him, he doesn't have a weapon.
D.
A.
would toss it.
[Sighs.]
So what are we gonna do? Just let 'em go? What? I know who killed your brother-in-law.
- Who? - Our Bren'in.
I can bring him to you.
You know the old Macgregor farm road off route 7? - Yeah.
- Tonight.
You'll get your man.
Oh, and, Wade, see this? This is an ancient symbol from the ruthark.
It means divine protection.
Whichever one of us it was that brought your brother's body down off that mountain, they wanted his spirit to be safe.
[Photo rustles, door closes.]
You know, I slept down here before.
It ain't that bad.
Really? Are you really saying this? I mean, what else are we supposed to do? It's not like we can go back to your place.
Your brother will call the cops on me.
I'm not sleeping down here like some homeless person.
Well, that's what we are.
[Container thuds.]
I thought you told me you had a house.
Your own house with a porch and everything.
Yeah, I do.
Just we can't go up there right now.
Why? You're always telling me how beautiful it is.
- I know.
And it is, but - But what? Do you have a better idea? - [Door opens.]
- Bren'in? [Coughs.]
Foster, we had us a major setback.
Oh, goddamn it.
I knew that you was full of shit.
No, we were ready to do business, and they ripped us off, stole our cash.
Why don't you tell me what the hell happened? It's just like cousin Asa says, Bren'in.
They pulled guns on us and they beat us.
Look, I made a gross miscalculation.
What the hell you doing up here? Why don't you stay down there and take care of it - instead of bothering me? - Because I can't do it alone.
All right, why don't you take Bhradain there, all right? Bhradain, you go, all right? Take him, take him.
[Coughs.]
And take my son, too, if you can find him.
Foster, listen to me, the only reason I came up here was to tell you one thing.
Your people need you.
Only the Bren'in can save us now, you understand? Only you.
- [Radio static crackles.]
- Wade to Dolan.
Wade to Dolan.
What's what's your status? In position.
Copy.
We're in position down here.
He give you a time? Mm, night.
- How you doing? - [Speaks indistinctly.]
Well, we got all set now.
[Chimes tinkling.]
[ATV approaching.]
[Engine revving.]
[Engine stops.]
All right, Joe Phil'up.
Let's go.
[Engines starting.]
[Engines revving.]
[Engines revving.]
[Urinating.]
[Zips pants.]
[Owl hooting in distance.]
[Crickets chirping.]
You hear anything? No.
Mm.
You know, um, when I was down in that, uh, the mine Uh I saw my wife.
[Bird calling in distance.]
And, uh, talked to her.
I mean, she was in another world.
She was good there.
She was all right.
[Engine revving.]
Foster, why'd you stop? What's wrong? [Engines idling.]
Foster! [Breathing heavily.]
We're not going this way.
We have to! It's gonna take too long otherwise! I don't care.
We ain't going this way.
- [Engine revving.]
- No, we have to go this way.
[Under breath.]
Shit.
[Engines revving.]
[Owl hooting in distance.]
[Breathing unevenly.]
They're not coming, Wade.
[Animal howling in distance.]
That him? That the guy who cut your bone off? This isn't a good idea, Foster.
He ain't gonna be alone.
And they're probably gonna be heavily armed.
Well, that's just fine.
[Spits.]
That's what we come here for.
[Coughs.]
This is a really bad idea look, we ain't going back empty-handed, all right? - Go talk to your boy.
- You kidding me? No, let's see how happy he is to see you now.
Go.
Go, go.
[Whispers.]
Go.
- Go.
- Ah, shit.
Bhradain, you go around back.
[Coughs.]
[Music playing faintly in earbuds.]
[Breathing heavily.]
Abel.
Are you nuts sneaking around here like that? - Listen to me.
Go inside.
- What?! Go inside and lock the door right now.
- Who the hell is - [Slashing sound.]
Aah! [Choking.]
[Grunting.]
Hey, hey, hey.
Three of you go inside, all right? See what they got.
See if big boy is right about them, okay? [Whispers.]
Hey, hey, hey, up, up, up.
[Breathing heavily.]
You're up to something, right? You up to something? - I can't figure it out.
- I ain't up to nothing.
You are.
It was you who set us up at that gun store and I know it.
And you're doing it again somehow.
They got a shitload more.
- Good.
Good, good, good, good.
- All right.
Watch they ain't no trap in there.
- [Whispers.]
Ah, shit.
- [Gun cocks.]
All right, now you, your time's come to an end.
We got everything that we need now.
Listen to me, Foster.
I want what you want.
- You got your guns.
- [Coughing.]
Right.
[Glass shatters, rapid gunfire.]
[Panting.]
- [Gunfire continues.]
- Aah! This ain't just me doing this.
I'm doing it for my queen.
That's right.
Your sweet love.
That young girl you left by the side of the road.
She don't just want you gone, she wants you dead.
- [Gun cocks.]
- Okay? Now you say goodbye.
I love you.
[Gunfire continues.]
I always will.
You're my son, Foster.
Ma.
What are you doing here? I only had one son.
But still, you were always my best son.
Why are you doing this, ma? What are you doing? Ma? - [Gunfire continues.]
- Ma.
Ma.
Oh.
Shh.
You're not feeling well.
Ma, what are you what are you doing to me? You chose such a fine woman for your bride.
I love her, ma.
[Laughing.]
You you aren't capable of such a thing! You're poison to all of us.
That ain't true.
I care about this family.
No, you don't.
You killed your son.
Elon is dead because of you.
I didn't.
He was my favorite son, and I loved him.
- You're a demon! - I ain't! No, I ain't! I ain't! I ain't, ma! No, I no, ma.
I ain't a demon, ma.
I ain't! I - [Speaking indistinctly.]
- No.
No, I care about this family! Ma, what are you doing to me? Tell me.
Tell me, what are you doing to me? Huh? [Flames whooshing.]
Ma! - Let me go.
- [Men shouting indistinctly.]
Bren'in.
Bren'in.
Foster! - Foster, let's go! - [Panting.]
[Explosion, glass shattering.]
[Flames crackling.]
[Garbled radio chatter, static.]
Gunshot fired.
Several are wounded.
Uh, repeat your transmission.
We we're not hearing you here.
- Repeat transmission.
- [Radio static crackles.]
Fully involved structure fire.
Three deceased.
Gunshot wounds.
[Siren wailing, engine revving.]
[Siren continues wailing.]
[Men shouting indistinctly.]
[Indistinct conversations.]
We there yet? A couple more miles.
Seriously? Hasil, I gotta stop.
Come on.
It ain't a good idea to stop at night.
Why? Because things stay out the way if you're moving.
Now, come on.
Sally-Ann.
Hey.
[Breathing heavily.]
We gotta keep moving.
Come on.
[Footsteps approach.]
This is Sally-Ann.
Pleasure, Miss.

[Breathing heavily.]
Put 'em over there in the corner, all right? Now, y'all gonna [Coughs.]
Y'all gonna be my sentry tonight, got that? Out there, okay? You out there.
You, come on, over here.
And nobody sleeps tonight.
- You get that? Nobody sleeps.
- Yes, Bren'in.
[Breathing heavily.]
He scattered when things got rough, that Asa.
No surprise there, huh? [Coughs.]
I was gonna kill him, but I changed my mind.
Why? Were you scared? Why? What would I be scared of? His spirit.
Him not being buried in our earth.
No, his spirit left him when he left us.
I know that you never meant it when you told me you wanted him dead.
You was just biding your time for some reason.
[Coughing.]
He served his purpose.
I'm still gonna kill him.
You're the Bren'in.
Don't you say that.
I don't wanna hear that.
I know.
I know I am the Bren'in! All I wanna know all I wanna know is if [Exhales deeply.]
I just I just wanna know [Breathing heavily.]
[Belt thuds.]
[Keys jingle.]
[Switch clicks.]
