Harper's Island s01e13 Episode Script

Sigh

My name is Abby Mills, and I've come home to Harper's Island.
My best friend was supposed to Marry the girl of his dreams, but something terrible has happened.
People are being killed and John Wakefield is alive.
And his intent is killing us all.
There are only a handful of us left.
We don't know who to trust or where to turn, but we have to stick together and fight back if we don't want to die.
Previously on Harper's Island: My mom loved my dad.
She stole from me, threw away my child.
How do you even know she had your child? Because I found him.
I found a boathouse.
There's a radio.
Mayday, Mayday.
This is Harper's Island requesting immediate assistance.
Over.
This is U.
S.
Coast Guard.
Give us your location.
Over.
You saved us.
Henry, Wakefield escaped.
We have to go.
I know; I gave him the key.
Sully was right.
Wakefield has an accomplice; it's just not Jimmy.
Hey, Dad.
Come on, I'll take good care of it.
But you're not going to use it.
Want to bet? I'm going to practice so much, when you get back next summer, I'm going to totally kick your butt.
Abby, don't say "butt," and it's not polite to brag.
Okay, Dad.
But I will kick it.
I think your folks are here, Henry.
Come in, it's open.
Hey, JD.
Well Well, you guys are off early this year.
Yeah, well, Karen's ready to get back.
Well, we got to get these two ready for school.
Summers seem to go faster every year.
Hey.
Have a safe trip.
Come on, Henry, we can't miss the ferry.
Okay, Dad, just a second.
I've been thinking maybe we should take a little trip ourselves.
The real trick is getting Sarah to come with us.
Something about this place Come on.
Henry Dunn.
Your dad's going to be so mad.
It's okay.
I don't want you to go either.
Yeah, I just wish I lived here all the time like you, Abby.
I mean, you don't know what it's like.
Tacoma is so Boring? It's just not here.
Me, too.
Henry James Dunn, get over here now.
See you next summer.
You cared for her.
She was harder than the others.
She served her purpose.
Nothing else matters.
I know.
Danny put up much of a fight? He didn't embarrass himself.
Trish's sister and the girl got away.
Henry! Trish! Coast Guard's on their way.
We only have a couple of hours.
Shea? What are you doing? John Wakefield escaped.
What? How? I don't know, we just we think someone's helping him.
Yeah, Jimmy.
It's got to be.
No no, he's with Abby.
They sent us here to find you.
Okay, so what about the others? Where's Danny? He helped us escape.
He was fighting Wakefield.
No.
Oh, son of a bi! Damn it! Hey, whoever's out there, come in.
This is Harper's Island.
Over.
This is Coast Guard dispatch.
Go ahead, Harper's Island.
Yeah, the guy we captured-- Wakefield-- he's out.
You hear me? He's escaped.
We need everything you got and we need it right now.
How close are you guys? Did you get that? Come in.
Copy that, Harper's Island.
We're still fighting weather here.
Chopper's waiting for clearance.
We're getting off this island.
Henry! Trish! Abby, I want to find them, too, but calling out is only going to draw Wakefield.
I know.
Henry would do it for us.
Oh, God.
Oh, God.
Now is your time.
Everything that we planned.
You know what you have to do.
I have to kill Abby.
Harper's Island S01 E13 Final Episode What are you doing? Just keep heading east.
No, no, no, you have to come with us.
Not with Wakefield still out there.
Then we all stay.
I mean, what about Trish? I can't just leave her here.
Your priority is to get your little girl off this island.
Now, Shea, crank that sucker.
Thank you and tell Trish that I I will.
Now go.
Henry! Maybe he went back to the boathouse.
He knew Sully was there.
No, he wouldn't just leave Trish.
Trish is dead, just like we're going to be if we don't get out of here.
We have no weapons.
We're sitting ducks.
Let's just go back to the boathouse, please.
Come on.
This is Harper's Island.
Come in, Coast Guard.
This is San Juan Sector 324.
Go ahead, Harper's Island.
Yeah, I think I talked to you before.
This is Chris Sullivan.
That's correct, Chris.
Over.
Yeah, well, listen, there is a small boat coming your way, heading east.
Shea Allen and her daughter Madison are on it.
You guys got to pick 'em up.
Roger that, Chris.
Small craft with two people heading east off of Harper's Island.
Over.
Yeah, roger, whatever.
When the hell are you guys getting here? I'll get back to you in a second with an ETA.
Over.
Yeah, thanks.
Take your time.
Henry.
Damn it.
You scared the hell out of me.
Man, am I glad to see you.
Did I hear right? Shea and Madison got off the island? Yeah.
Look, Wakefield escaped.
I had to make sure they were safe.
Wait, what? Why didn't you go with 'em? And abandon you? I I'm impressed.
Seriously.
That is quite possibly the stupidest thing you've ever done.
This is San Juan Sector 324.
Are you there, Chris? Over.
Yeah, I'm here with Henry Dunn.
A Coast Guard chopper should be there in 45.
Cutter's on its way, too.
Over.
Okay, 45.
We got it.
Roger that, Chris.
The chopper will set down at the marina.
Can you and Henry get there? Over.
The marina.
Yeah, you got it.
Hang in there, Chris.
We're on our way.
Over.
Hey, thanks, man.
I appreciate it.
Okay, what about Trish? She's somewhere in the woods; we got separated.
You really think Danny's gone? He was fighting Wakefield, so Okay, okay, first Trish, then we find Abby and Jimmy.
Okay.
Trish! Trish! Hey, you sure this is the way she ran? Just doesn't feel like we're close to the Candlewick.
You know what I don't get? How Wakefield escaped from that jail cell.
He must have had help.
Yeah, but who? One of us, had to be.
Well, Jimmy wasn't anywhere near the jail and he's the only one I can buy.
What about Wakefield's kid? He could've done it.
Then, he's a ghost.
'Cause there is no way in hell this guy slipped past us.
I locked Wakefield up.
I could've slipped him the key.
Okay.
For argument's sake, let's say this psycho has a son.
Are you saying he's a whack job like his old man? Maybe he's just really pissed.
Guy's got a lot to be pissed about.
No, we have a lot to be pissed about.
But if his mom abandoned him gave him up for adoption, let him be raised by some loser family who never bothered telling him he wasn't theirs.
Life's hard.
Grow a pair.
I know I'd be pissed.
He was lied to his whole life.
If my real dad showed up, told me the truth, set me free, hell, I'd be grateful.
I'd want to help him get revenge.
Dude.
You're creeping me out.
You're right.
Sorry.
Trish! Hey.
Well, where the hell are they? The boat's gone.
Well maybe they're safe.
Maybe they're going to make it.
Coast Guard, this is Harper's Island.
Come in.
So we can signal them.
This is San Juan Sector 324.
Over.
This is Jimmy Mance and Abby Mills.
Where the hell are you guys? Chopper's on its way.
Less than 40 minutes out.
You need to meet your friends at the rally point.
Over.
Friends? Chris Sullivan and Henry Dunn.
They were instructed to go to the marina.
Oh, God.
They're alive.
Why don't we just head to the sheriff's station? Trish went there looking for Danny.
Danny's dead.
You don't know that.
So is Trish.
I killed her.
Hey, shut up, man.
Seriously, just shut up.
I killed my brother, too.
At the marina.
In the rain.
Remember? Abby almost caught me.
Okay, what are you doing, Henry? I don't Coming clean.
It's time to start a new life.
You're my friend.
You deserve to know before I Well, look, it's not like I killed them all.
My dad did a lot.
Your dad is dead.
I went to his funeral.
Oh, no, man, not that guy.
Not that liar.
My real dad, John Wakefield.
He's the only person who's told me the truth.
No.
Y-y-you've been my best friend since junior high.
Yeah.
Oh, come on.
Henry, don't.
Sully.
Don't make me shoot you.
I decapitated Reverend Fain.
I harpooned Richard Allen.
Stop it! I even stabbed Katherine in the Candlewick while everyone was running around looking for Madison.
Pretty exciting stuff.
Do you want me to kill you? Hey, here's something funny.
Do you remember that money we found? It was Uncle Marty's.
He wanted to invest in Malcolm's brewery, be the big hero, save the day.
I wanted Malcolm to find the cash, see what would happen.
He made good beer, didn't he? You son of a bitch.
Sorry.
Hey, Dad.
John Wakefield's right behind you.
How stupid do you think I am? Pretty stupid.
You never should've dogged Trish.
Time to ring the bell.
This way.
Henry.
Whoa, whoa.
Oh.
I just saw Wakefield.
He can't be far.
We just came from the boathouse.
Where's Sully and the others? I haven't seen them.
I've been looking for Trish.
Have you seen her? Henry Trish is dead.
Where? She was right here.
She was right here, right? Maybe she's still alive.
Wounded.
We have to find her.
Trish! Henry, Henry, we checked.
She was definitely gone.
Don't you tell me she's gone.
-Don't tell me she's gone, Jimmy! -Henry, Henry.
It's true.
You might not want to hear it, but Jimmy's telling the truth.
I have to find her.
Henry! Harper's Island, this is San Juan Sector 324.
The chopper is approaching the rally point.
20 minutes out.
Over.
Doesn't it seem weird to you Henry wasn't with Trish? You heard him-- he's been looking for her.
They must have gotten separated.
I'd never leave you alone like that.
I'm so sorry.
No, no.
Abby, get out of here! Henry, wait! Henry, now! I don't have a shot.
Coast Guard.
Has to be.
Abby, signal for help! Go! Henry! She's getting away! Now finish it.
Abby! Where's Jimmy? Wakefield got him.
I'm so sorry.
Do you know where we're supposed to meet them? Chris Sullivan and Henry Dunn.
They were instructed to go to the marina.
The marina.
But the guy on the radio said he talked with you and Sully.
Where's Sully and the others? I haven't seen them.
I've been looking for Trish.
You said you hadn't seen Sully.
I haven't.
Abby What's wrong? It's okay.
It's over.
Henry Not her.
Henry.
No Abby The way he looked at you.
Abby It's you.
He's dead.
I finished it.
No, not you, Henry.
Oh, God! Mrs.
Allen, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting.
Did you find anyone else? Mrs.
Allen, would you mind if Agent Perez borrowed Madison for a few minutes? I'll be right out, honey.
He's going to tell you everyone else is dead.
Isn't he? Madison.
What about my sister? We believe Wakefield intentionally burnt the church down.
You're saying that Trish was I'm so sorry.
Your sister and Henry Dunn died in the church.
Traces of blood and bone indicate that several others also perished in the fire.
We've completed our search of the island, and we found over 20 bodies.
We've been able to ID most of them, but Wakefield John Wakefield.
We found his body in the foyer of the church.
It appears he failed to escape after setting the fire.
You're sure it was him? Yes, ma'am.
He was badly burned, but it was him.
John Wakefield is dead.
My deepest condolences.
Other than a handful of locals, you and your daughter are the only survivors of Harper's Island.
Hey, there.
Didn't think I'd be this nervous.
Y-You want something to eat? No.
It's okay.
I'll explain everything.
What did you do? I chose you.
Over him.
Wakefield's your father? No more secrets, Abby.
You stay away from me.
Abby, there's nowhere to go.
I-I'm not going to hurt you.
Abby.
I'm sorry it's worked out like this, but it's going to be okay.
It's still me.
And I can wait.
We have all the time in the world.
Just like you wanted.
Remember when we were kids how we used to hate that I had to leave? I don't want you to go either.
But you'll be back next summer, right? Yeah.
Do you remember what you said to me? I wish you could live here with me forever, just the two of us.
Now we can.
You and me.
Alone.
No.
Abby.
Just come downstairs when you're ready.
Abby? I'm coming up.
We were kids.
Don't blame me for what you've done.
Hey.
You're sick.
You need help.
You were going to marry Trish.
The wedding was the only way I could think of to get you back to the island.
Everyone's dead.
They had to go.
They were in our way.
Wakefield killed my mom and dad.
She was your mom, too.
She threw me away.
You're my brother.
I can do the math.
Abby, it doesn't matter.
No one else knows.
Hell, the Dunns never told me.
You know how that felt? I don't care how that felt.
All right, all right, you need to know this now.
I want to tell you everything-- how I learned the truth.
I met Wakefield the day of the rampage.
I didn't know he was my father then.
But when I looked at him there was a connection.
Connection? With the man who hung my mother from a tree? Kind of weird, huh? I was inspired by the guy that everyone else feared and hated.
Abby, you don't need that.
You knew Wakefield was alive all these years? That my dad hadn't killed him? Yeah.
How? About a year after the rampage, he tracked me down.
He told me I was his son, that he'd been searching his whole life for me.
Do you know how powerful that is-- that kind of love? This feels great.
We should have had this talk a long time ago.
No, the Henry I know isn't a killer.
I've always had certain impulses.
I just didn't understand them until I met my dad.
The sheriff was right about Wakefield being at those murder scenes in Seattle and Tacoma.
He just wasn't the one doing the killing.
It's harder than you think.
You couldn't do it.
You couldn't shoot Wakefield.
It takes practice.
I've known you my whole life.
Abby, it's all over.
It's done; I'm done killing.
I am not my dad.
He thought you had to destroy the one you love to be complete.
He wanted you to kill me.
But I could never do that.
I could never do that.
That's how I'm different from him.
He chose death.
I choose life with you.
I love you.
No! Abby! Jimmy.
You weren't supposed to find him.
Let him go.
My dad wanted to kill him a long time ago, but I wouldn't let him.
You used Jimmy.
Every time he showed up, it made him look more guilty.
You and Sully were ready to blow his head off.
You should be thanking me.
Stop lying, Henry.
Why is he alive? He's not.
None of us are.
As far as the world is concerned, we all burned to death in a fire.
What did you do? Provided closure.
The police will find blood samples to support our deaths, and no one will come looking for us.
They'll find my father's body in the fire as well, and the legend of John Wakefield will grow, and he'll be remembered Why is Jimmy alive? No more secrets, remember? Shea and Madison got off the island.
Wasn't part of the plan.
They know that somebody let Wakefield out of his jail cell.
You're setting Jimmy up as Wakefield's accomplice? I'm doing it for you.
For us.
So that no one will come looking for us.
So that we can live our lives together.
Jimmy will sign a confession.
No, he'll never do it.
No.
Yes, he will.
Yes, he will.
Now that he's seen you.
He'll do it for you.
And then, what? Then, you'll kill him? Look, Abby, I've had to make a lot of hard choices for us to be here.
He's the last one.
I swear.
No Oh, God! Oh, God! I know this is hard on you, but we've both had to make sacrifices.
It's going to be fine.
Oh, God.
I just want things to be the way they were.
Before all of this.
They will be.
Jimmy agreed to sign a full confession.
It's all working out, just like I promised.
But he won't sign it unless I let him say good-bye to you.
I can't.
You have to.
I'll wait for you downstairs.
Ooh, careful.
Let me get the door.
Say good-bye.
Abby.
I'm sorry I left.
I thought about calling every day.
That's enough.
I love him.
Oh, I shouldn't have done that.
Uh come on, let's go.
Get the hell away from her! Abby! Abby! Abby! Stop! Would you? If anyone else is on the island, they're miles away! Abby! Wait! Abby! Abby, stop.
I didn't want it to be like this.
I know what you did.
You told Jimmy you'd kill me if he didn't sign a confession.
Abby, I could never hurt you.
Everything that I've done, I did for us.
I'd die without you.
Is that why you have that boarding knife? There.
Now do you believe me? You and this island are my home.
You're the only thing that makes sense to me.
None of this makes sense.
You destroyed everything I ever loved.
No, but you have me! I don't want you! Jimmy.
Jimmy, are you okay? No.
Abby? But I love you.
Henry bear, baby face, I love you and can't wait to marry you and spend the rest of my life with you.
Cheers.
Henry, Trish whatever, you guys are getting married-- that's great.
Have you seen these bridesmaids? I am going to get so much action at this wedding.
Henry, Trish, congratulations.
I'm so happy for you.
You know, I haven't had a girlfriend in a while, but I hope maybe soon to turn that corner and settle down and make a commitment like you have.
Henry, I'm-I'm proud of you, man.
Trish, Henry, congratulations.
You guys look great together.
Not-not as good as probably Trish and I.
Hey, um, congratulations, Trish, Henry.
I'm really happy you guys are getting married.
Not not real great thing that you had it on a boat, Henry.
You know, I don't handle this kind of thing real well.
Trish, you are so lucky! Henry's so hot.
You got to him before I did.
I'm so pissed.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm not going to hit on your husband, but, um, have such a great life together.
I'm so happy for you.
Trish and Henry, I just wanted to say congratulations.
I'm I'm terribly excited for you and excited to be here and very grateful that you let me come.
Um, I wish your wedding and-and all of that, um, just the best, and I hope it lasts a very long time.
Okay.
Uh, Henry and Trish, I, uh I hate cameras, so I'm going to keep this really brief.
Um, everything I have to say to you I've put in a little poem, which I will give to you later.
And, um yeah.
You guys are great.
That's it.
Hey, babe.
You're probably sick of hearing it, but I love you.
And I'm going to treat every moment with you as if it were my last.
Let's get married, huh? I'll see you there.
