Everybody Hurts
1
[JUDGE PETTIGREW]
Bail's gonna be $500,000.
[CLERK] The accused
must appear in court,
or the deed to the Abbott
ranch will be forfeited.
Billy, baby! You were shot!
And who did this?
Well, that's a hell of a
twist this story just took.
What are you gonna do now, Wayne?
I will render vengeance
on my adversaries.
Well, there's a snack
if I ever seen one.
Wayne Tillerson.
- Where are we going?
- We're goin' somewhere special.
As some of you know,
my granddaughter, Amy,
went missin' last night.
- I made some flyers in the hopes
- First the mother, now the daughter.
[PARISHIONER 1] How awful.
[PARISHIONER 2] Her son
killed the Tillerson boy.
I can hear everything you're saying.
Don't be an asshole.
Amy's missing.
I can't leave, Maria.
I understand.
- And would I know your dad?
- Yeah.
His name's Royal Abbott.
I came through the same hole you did.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]
[WIND CHIMES CHIMING]
[LEADER] The Universe chooses
women who are worthy
of healing.
Women who humble themselves,
ready to devote their entire beings
to the path to salvation.
The Universe has neither
a beginning, nor an ending
but it is filled with
boundless opportunity
to grow
to heal
to learn every secret
the Universe has to offer,
and I promise you this,
those who devote
themselves to the message
will have the mysteries of
the Universe revealed to them.
But, for now
we heal.

- You okay?
- [CECILIA ABBOTT] Yeah.
You were tossin' and turnin' real bad.
[ROYAL GRUNTS]

Amy was here.
Alone.
It was like she walked all the
way from the edge of the world.
[EXHALES]
[GRUNTS]
[HEAVY BREATHING]
She was here, but the house wasn't.
Had all been plowed to bits.
Every corner of it.
And she kept sayin', uh, "Fix it."
"Fix it."
[CECILIA] Our house was gone?
Nah.
It was just a dream.
[DOOR CLOSES]
Hey!
- Where you goin'?
- Church!
Readin' the Bible's made her curious.
And you're okay with her goin'?
I talked to her, called the pastor.
Hey, Autumn? Remember
what we talked about!
[ROYAL ABBOTT] Is she walkin'?
- She miraculously heal overnight?
- Doubt it.
I'm gonna make some coffee.
- We gotta get ready for court.
- Alright.

Yep, I'll see you there.
Alright.

Not really.
You?
Not really.
[SLIGHT CHUCKLING]
That was my dad.
I gotta, uh
gotta go to court soon.
You wanna come?
I don't think that court's a good time
to reintroduce myself to your parents.
- Right.
- Yeah.
I'll just hang
here until ya get back.
[LAUGHING]
Amy being with Rebecca
isn't the greatest thing,
but it's one less mystery to solve.
Yeah.
[MARIA OLIVARES] You okay?
- Mm-hm.
- Good.
Go get ready, and wish for the best.

Let us know if anything changes.
I appreciate all you've done for my son.
Thank you.
I believe that he will be healed.
After all, you're back on
your feet after your stroke.
If that isn't a miracle.
Yes, yes, yes. A miracle.
Thank you. Goodbye.
Goodbye? [MUTTERING]
Where are they goin'?
His care will not be the
responsibility of a stranger's hands.
Falls to us.
Whoa, to us?
[SCOFFS] Dad, I I'm not a nurse.
You're his brother.
Blood takes precedence over everything.
- Dad, we have money.
- We've got?
What we've got is a
responsibility to get Billy better.
Okay.
Let me let me focus
on the West Pasture.
- I can handle the Abbotts.
- Okay, where do we start?
Hm?
You show me that you can
take care of your brother
and then maybe we'll have a conversation
between two grown men
about the West Pasture.
I've got a date with the Abbotts.
What's goin' on?
Deuteronomy, son.
Take care of your brother.
The pastor's gonna come by,
and don't let him Jesus it up
in here too long with his flock.
[TODD BARNEY] Good
morning, Judge Pettigrew.
It is always a pleasure to stand
before a distinguished
judge such as yourself.
Mr. Barney, where is Perry Abbott?
[TODD] Your Honor, these are
extraordinary circumstances.
Amy Abbott went missing three days ago.
Her father is beside himself with grief,
and he's chosen to try
to find his daughter.
Is this true, Mr. and Mrs. Abbott?
Yes. Yes, sir.
According to Deputy
Catlett, there are witnesses
that indicate Amy Abbott went willingly
with her mother that night at the rodeo.
Is that true?
I'm gonna take your silence as a "yes."
If your client knew this,
there's no excuse for
him not being here today.
So, did Perry know?
[ROYAL] Your Honor,
my son is a good man.
Ya know, he knows the difference between
- right and wrong
- My son was a good man too,
but he's no longer here
'cause he was murdered.
[JUDGE PETTIGREW] Mr. Tillerson, please.
- [WAYNE] I was under the impression
- Your Honor, my son went to go
make amends to his wife
and bring home his child.
- doesn't commit murder!
- Mr. Tillerson!
Royal, sit.
Your Honor, let's not
try Perry in this moment.
Today is about the Abbott Ranch.
You're correct, Mr. Barney.
Perry Abbott is in
violation of his bail.
His failure to appear will be
considered a notice of forfeiture.
[SIGHS] Mr. Abbott, your
appeal to the court, while true,
seems like a stall tactic.
Therefore, you will
repay $500,000 by Monday
or the deed to your
ranch shall be forfeited.
[BANGS GAVEL]
[SOLEMN MUSIC PLAYING]
- This your doin', Wayne?
- [TODD] You're not helping, Rhett.
Your Honor, there's absolutely no way
they can make that payment by Monday.
Perhaps your client should
consider their options.
Cecilia, Royal
I'm sorry.
- [RHETT] Hey, you son of a bitch.
- [ROYAL] Hey, hey!
No, that's what he wants.
That's what he wants. Don't.
Thank you, Todd. We'll call ya.
Uh, Rhett, why don't you bring
Maria over, your girlfriend.
We'll, uh, make use of the
ranch while we still have it.
Yes, ma'am.
♪
[WAYNE TILLERSON] Retribution, Royal.
For Trevor and for Billy.
[ROYAL] You know what's the worst
thing to happen to your boys?
They were born to you.
[TRUCK RUMBLING]
Thanks.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Welcome. Cecilia said you were coming.
I-I meant to ask you
before, are you okay?
Oh, I-I'm a little banged up.
I'm okay. I'm Autumn.
Welcome, Autumn.
I wanted to apologize for the other day.
Oh, we all have our weak moments
even when we think we're
doing the right thing.
Are you talking about
me or the congregation?
Well, no one, no one's perfect.
Autumn, Autumn, have you ever
been a part of a church family?
[AUTUMN] Uh, no, I've been in a cult.
Pastor Ken, we're ready to go.
Oh, I'll be there in
a minute. Thank you.
Let me ask you. What
brings you here today?
Ephesians 4:11.
"And he gave some,
apostles; and some, prophets;
and some, evangelists; and
some, pastors and teachers."
I think the idea of a mentor,
of a teacher, really appeals to me.
Well, I-I don't think
I've ever heard anyone use
that verse as a reason to join church,
but now you've got me fascinated.
One step at a time is
always the smart way to go.
Shall we?
[CAMERA CLICKS]
[PERRY ABBOTT] Ain't
exactly my best picture.
Yeah looks like you
just got outta county.
Smilin' wasn't big in our household.
I tell you what,
you and I go down to
the Handsome one day,
grab a beer,
you can unload all the
bad Royal stuff on me.
But until then, you
need to start fittin' in.
Plus, I want you to meet someone.
Last time you said that
it was Wayne Tillerson.
[YOUNG ROYAL] Not this time.
[GEORGE JONES & TAMMY WYNETTE:
"GOD'S GONNA GET'CHA (FOR THAT)"]
- Well, hey there.
- [PERRY] Hey.
You're never gonna know which
one's the best until you try it on.
- May I?
- Sure.
[HUSHED] Let's try this one over here.
Here.
Wow! That Stetson has your name on it.
You know, a cowboy with the wrong hat
is a man who just has no
sense of place in this world.
[WOLF-WHISTLES]
[PERRY] I think I'm
more of a Cattleman man.
Well, alrighty then.
Let's see here.
Ya know, my ex-husband
was a Cattleman man.
- That could be why he's my ex.
- [LAUGHTER]
[YOUNG ROYAL] Uh, Mrs. Thurbee,
you flirtin' over there?
Well, I gotta keep myself vibrant.
- Yes, ma'am, you do.
- Aww.
Howdy, Royal.
Ben, this is Mrs. Thurbee.
- We've known each other for
- D don't you dare.
- Yes, ma'am.
- [MRS. THURBEE LAUGHS]
Hey, this store's been in her
family almost 80 years now.
- Yep.
- It's nice to meet you, ma'am.
I appreciate you helpin' me.
[MRS. THURBEE] [LAUGHS] Alright.
Here, let me take those
and ring 'em up for ya.
Thank you, ma'am.
Uh, Mrs. Thurbee, before you go,
Ben, wanna show her that photo of yours?
Now, Mrs. Thurbee, you know everyone
that comes through this town.
By chance, have you
seen this young lady?
No, I can't say I have
but sure is a lovely family.
- Has she gone missin'?
- Yes, ma'am.
Oh.
Well, sometimes, people
find the space they need
and they work it out.
Then they come back.
Give it time, alright? 'Kay.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
That right there, you
just met my grandniece.
That's my last livin' relative.
Does she know?
[YOUNG ROYAL] Doesn't have a clue.
How'd you find her?
I did some diggin'
through the town archives.
Isabella, my sister
she got married when she was
15 to a man 10 years her senior.
Had to.
They had two kids. One
of them had a daughter.
That's Mrs. Thurbee.
- Why'd you bring me here?
- Look, I had to make a choice.
Okay, I could either
keep livin' in the past
or I could accept what happened.
But just because that's the
way it played out for you
doesn't mean it's what's
gonna happen to me.
It ain't always about what's
happenin' to you, Perry.
Okay?
- Mrs. Thurbee.
- [MRS. THURBEE] Yes?
- [YOUNG ROYAL] What'd I owe you, ma'am?
- [MRS. THURBEE LAUGHS]
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
- [WOMAN] No!

It's time for my cigarette!
You keep dullin' me
with pills so I forget,
but my mind is sharp.
I can see the clock right over there.
How many times do I have to tell ya?
Sally
what's the fuss?
All I want's the one cigarette
I ask for every single day,
and it's always a fuckin' fight.
- It's a fight to keep you healthy.
- [SCOFFS]
The good Lord done punched my ticket.
'Less he's gonna give me my time back,
let me just enjoy what I can enjoy.
[AUTUMN] Makes sense to me.
Hello, I'm Autumn.
Mustang Sally.
What if I told you that
you're disrespecting time?
The fuck's that mean?
And this behavior is
stealing time from you.
How the hell you know all that?
[AUTUMN] It was shown to
me by someone who was sick
of the same shit that you're sick of.
Who knew that God and the
Universe give time to some of us,
and we're the ones that have to
figure out how to make it count.
You know you're gonna
get your cigarette, so
what are you fighting over?
What are you so frightened of?
And why should you be given more time
when you're the one that's wasting it?
[MUSTANG SALLY CHUCKLES]
How come you can't be smart like that?
- [LAUGHS]
- [PASTOR KEN] Okay.
- [LAUGHING]
- Okay, Sally.

We can't ask these folks for money.

[CECILIA] And Wayne's got
his hands in Pettigrew.
- Wayne wants the West Pasture.
- [CECILIA] No, he wants to tear us apart.
That's why we have to
ask some of these favors.
- People owe us.
- [KNOCKING ON TABLE]
We've built goodwill with the bank.
And they got a lot more money
than any of the people
on this piece of paper.

Now where were we?
Sorry.
Uh, as we were sayin',
we are completely willing
to take the high interest rates
because of the extraordinary
circumstances
And we have the titles to our trucks.
The problem is you don't have
collateral for this size a loan.
We're very aware of that.
Lindsay my family's
banked here for 80 years.
My daddy, your daddy,
they were good friends.
Durin' the recession, when
your daddy went house to house,
beggin' his customers
to stay, we stayed.
We did not even give
it a second thought.
This moment, this is
the other side of that,
when your daddy went house to house.
Loyalty has to be more
than a word on your banner.
I need you to remember when
the Abbott word was enough.
The Abbott name, it's

Well, do you believe there's something
wrong with sitting in silence?

All she needed was a little
bit of human interaction.
Autumn, what you said to
Sally didn't really help her.
I mean, five minutes with Sally and you,
you feel like you're enlightened?
Why do you think that Jesus
was nailed to the cross, Pastor?
Because he was the son of God.
He was crucified for speaking the truth.
I think it scared you.
I think you were scared by how I
made that woman listen to the truth.

to her was dime store therapy.
Sally suffers from a

morning, Judge Pettigrew.
It is always a pleasure to stand
before a distinguished

Mr. Barney, where is Perry Abbott?
[TODD] Your Honor, these are
extraordinary circumstances.
Amy Abbott went missing three days ago.
Her father is beside himself with grief,
and he's chosen to try
to find his daughter.
Is this true, Mr. and Mrs. Abbott?
Yes. Yes, sir.
According to Deputy
Catlett, there are witnesses
that indicate Amy Abbott went willingly
with her mother that night at the rodeo.
Is that true?
I'm gonna take your silence as a "yes."
If your client knew this,
there's no excuse for
him not being here today.
So, did Perry know?
[ROYAL] Your Honor,
my son is a good man.
Ya know, he knows the difference between
- right and wrong
- My son was a good man too,
but he's no longer here
'cause he was murdered.
[JUDGE PETTIGREW] Mr. Tillerson, please.
- [WAYNE] I was under the impression
- Your Honor, my son went to go
make amends to his wife
and bring home his child.
- doesn't commit murder!
- Mr. Tillerson!
Royal, sit.
Your Honor, let's not
try Perry in this moment.
Today is about the Abbott Ranch.
You're correct, Mr. Barney.
Perry Abbott is in
violation of his bail.
His failure to appear will be
considered a notice of forfeiture.
[SIGHS] Mr. Abbott, your
appeal to the court, while true,
seems like a stall tactic.
Therefore, you will
repay $500,000 by Monday
or the deed to your
ranch shall be forfeited.

Every move you've made
since you were a child
was born of selfishness and self-pity.
Selfishness?
Ever since I was a child,
I've run this ranch,
day in and day out.
And all I ever wanted
from you was a fuckin' hug.
[SHOUTING]
That's what you wanted, huh?
Me to give you more excuses to blame me,
to blame Billy for what you've become,
but I'm not gonna give 'em to ya.
Do you know what my
mother used to say to me?
She told me that the oldest son's duty
was to take over from his father,
uh, grow what he inherited,
and make a mountain out of it,
- even if all he got was a molehill.
- [SNIFFLES]
And the youngest son's
duty, the youngest son's duty
was to love his parents,
to tend to them until
their blessed golden days.
But you know what the middle
son was supposed to be?
He's supposed to be a
secret insurance policy.
A very special rip cord to be
pulled in case of emergency.
And today, you showed me
your parachute, it won't open.
So, you tell me, why do I have a need
for you?
Hm?
[LUKE CRYING]
[LIGHT, TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Trevor
- hated you.
- Mm.
- And I hate you.
- Mm.
Is that your truth?
Makes no difference as
long as you're in my house
beggin' to be recognized.
Tell ya what, you don't have to worry
about takin' care of Billy anymore.
Why don't you just go
be with your mommy
if that's what's in your heart.
- You wanna know what's in my heart?
- Mm-hm.
I'll show you what's right in there.
- I'll show you.
- I can't wait.
In the meantime, why
don't ya figure it out
with your friend, Luke up there.
