Lethal Weapon (2016) s02e22 Episode Script

1 MIRANDA (ECHOING SOFTLY): There you are.
I've been waiting.
Do you still love me? (ECHOING SOFTLY): Of course I do.
MIRANDA: You were supposed to be here.
Right? That's what you said.
Do you not want to anymore? I do.
Then what's keeping you, baby? It's time.
Be with me.
(DISTORTED GUNSHOT FADES) (SIGHS) (GROANS SOFTLY) (CHUCKLES): Morning.
Morning.
Do I look different to you? Riggs, you are looking at a very wealthy woman.
You remember my family estate in the hill country? You mean the little cabin on the pond? Yeah.
Well, a family the Steadmans, I believe, sound adorable just put an offer on it.
And from this, you're rich? No.
From this, I can pay off a little debt.
So that's nice.
Right? Yeah.
I always liked that little place.
Yeah, me, too.
It would have been nice for Ben to grow up there.
Skipping stones.
Me baking pie.
You shooting squirrels on the porch.
Wow.
What? (CHUCKLES) Well, the mere mention of a future together, and you just totally froze up.
I did not freeze up.
That's just my natural posture.
- You're starting something.
- I'm not.
- I-I'm not.
- Ah.
Okay, fine.
It is a little weird that you don't even have a drawer here.
Hey.
I keep a pile in the bedroom.
Okay? I just didn't want to take up, you know, space.
I was trying - to be a gentleman.
- (CHUCKLES): Oh, a real gentlemen.
All right, how about this Miss Molly Hendricks? (SOUTHERN ACCENT): May I keep some underpants in your credenza? - Would that be all right? - (MOCK GROAN) Martin Riggs, you know just what to say to a girl.
- Uh-huh.
- Mm-hmm.
MURTAUGH: Hello? (SINGSONGY): Is it safe? (CHUCKLING) Is what safe, baby? (CHUCKLES) Acting all casual.
I see.
That's how we're gonna play it.
(CHUCKLING) Mom, what's he talking about? No clue.
The only question is when is my surprise party? Your birthday's in September, big guy.
No, my party because I was promoted to captain.
I know you all - are planning something.
- I'm out.
Baby, I can tell you, no one is planning a surprise party.
- Right.
- Okay, do you want a surprise party? No, - of course not.
- Hmm.
Really? I mean, but in the event that you did, - Uh-huh.
- I mean, let's keep it classy and elegant, - Okay.
Mm-hmm.
- you know, like the man himself.
So where are we on the fondue situation? - (LAUGHING) - Hmm? Huh? You are unbelievable.
And you just changed your password.
Yes.
For work.
I think that weasel, Alan, hacked into my accounts.
- Really? - Mm-hmm.
That's a crime.
TRISH: What are you doing? MURTAUGH: I'm sending Bailey an e-mail.
We'll have her check your computer, make sure no one messed with your accounts.
You can do that? Can I do that? Come on.
(CHUCKLES) It's good to be captain.
Ah, still detective for one more day.
(LAUGHS) Did you tell your partner? No.
I mean not talking about the important things is the basis of our relationship.
Roger, you have to tell him.
Not everybody likes surprises.
(SEABIRDS SQUAWKING) (KNOCKING) Yeah? Hey.
You busy? Just trying to figure out what to put in a drawer.
Yeah, well, at this point, anything would be an improvement.
At Molly's house.
A drawer at Molly's house.
You know, so I'm gonna keep some socks and, you know, Cheez Whiz.
A sundry drawer.
(CHUCKLES): Okay, that's a big step.
You're evolving.
And, you know, in life the cycle of life sometimes you got to move on.
Yeah, I know.
(SNIFFS) It sucks.
No, not always.
Sometimes change is good.
But the beauty is we always have (SNIFFS) the memories.
Here.
What the hell is that? It's the history of us.
Uh, no, thanks.
Riggs, it's a gift you can't give it back.
Look, Rog, I'm sorry.
I I got enough useless crap as it is.
Useless? This is our memories! Mine are right up here, bud.
Besides, we're gonna make new ones, right? So No, we won't.
Because (CLEARS THROAT SOFTLY) I'm gonna be captain.
Oh.
Yeah, I know.
- I heard, captain thing.
- You know? - Yeah.
- I painstakingly put together a symphony of our mementos, and you, nothing in return.
You mean in terms of, like, a gift? - Yeah.
- A gift.
Oh.
Well here we go.
- Here's a grenade.
- A grenade? Why do you have a grenade? Well, for emergencies, obviously.
You know what? I'm done.
As captain, this kind of recklessness will not stand.
Get down! I knew I should have texted you.
Yeah.
Okay, no wrong answers.
Who wants to kill Riggs? Flores Cartel.
That's already on there, like, five times.
New pitches only.
Scorsese's right.
We can't just focus on hardened criminals.
This guy pisses people off all day long.
We have to cast a wider net, people.
Remember when you bathed in that public car wash? - That guy was mad.
- Yeah.
He was upset, but I don't know if he was upset enough to, like, take me out.
AVERY: What is this? Someone took a shot at one of our own, and we are not going to eat, sleep or make love until the perpetrators are brought to justice.
Really? You liked it? You bought it? You bought it? Hey, I got chills.
I'd vote for you, Cap.
- So, where are we with this? - All right, we got two shooters, hosed it down from long range.
- Is it a professional job? - If it was a contract, these boys better not quit their day job.
Do you want me to get you a protective detail? It's policy.
I have to ask.
Let's just say I can't wait for them to take another shot.
Oh! The donut guy.
I had this whole situation with this, uh, Boston cream deal.
- Put him up there.
- All right, donut guy.
All right, now we're getting somewhere, guys.
- Who else wants to kill me? Let's go.
- MOLLY: Uh, Molly Hendricks.
How about we go look at - some campaign buttons.
- MOLLY: Went by your trailer, saw you did some remodeling.
Oh.
(CLEARS THROAT) (CHUCKLES) Just a case of the Mondays.
Uh, it's Thursday.
Start talking.
Um, look some clowns used my trailer for target practice.
All right? Not a big deal.
It's not a big deal? Who would do that? Well, apparently, my Texas charm doesn't translate as well here in Los Angeles.
Look, it's fine, all right? Why'd you go by the trailer? It's nothing.
We can talk later.
What are you talking about? You've come all the way down here it's something.
Well, I was about to sign those escrow papers.
- Mm-hmm.
- You remember the Steadmans? Of course.
They're the adorable couple.
Right.
And we're kind of adorable, too.
So I was thinking, why can't we be the Steadmans? Are you wanting to commit identity fraud? (SIGHS) I want you to move to Texas with me.
And Ben.
See, I-I started thinking about all of it, and you could get your job back, my business is on wheels, and it just felt so real and so right.
And if you say no, we'll just pretend this conversation never happened.
But, God, I hope you don't.
Um, what about the palm trees and the sunshine? I thought you liked it here.
I do.
I do.
But it's it's not home.
Can I think about it? Hold up.
You didn't flat-out reject it or freeze? I am calling that a win.
Okay, take your time.
But, uh just ask yourself something: what's keeping you here? There's all these people that want to kill me.
- Really nice.
- Oh.
I promise, Riggs, everyone will still want to kill you in Texas.
- Right.
- You can bet on it.
See you later? See you later.
MURTAUGH: The man cannot survive without me.
I practically saved his life today.
TRISH: I heard.
From a text.
"Someone tried to assassinate Riggs.
All good.
" I erred on the side of brevity, because I just wanted you to know that we're both okay.
Baby please be careful.
Both of you make it home, and there'll be a party waiting.
Ooh.
Okay, well, I want to approve the guest list.
(LAUGHS): Mm, it's just you and me.
But, um there will be fondue.
Mmm.
Well, then I better take my Lactaid.
(LAUGHS): Oh, my God.
That is not sexy.
Oh, sorry.
But I am gonna take it, because you know what happens to my stom Okay.
I love you.
Bye.
Hey, so, we got a hit from the bike a neighbor saw outside of Riggs' trailer.
It's registered to a corporation.
You want me to go with Riggs? It being your last day and all? Yeah.
But you know I can't let you do that.
(CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING) I know why you're so quiet and grumpy.
You're gonna miss me.
I understand I'm missable.
But you could still come by and harass me and - Molly asked me to move to Texas.
- Really? Where? Her family's got a little cabin out on a lake out there.
You know, probably could get my old job back that is, assuming my new captain puts in a good word for me.
You're serious? You're really thinking about giving all this up? Yeah.
Why not? You are.
Come on, Rog, last case let's make some memories together.
(CLASSICAL MUSIC CONTINUES) Hey, isn't that, uh? RIGGS: The meth-dealing Nazi you dunked in eggnog? I think it is.
You know, I almost didn't recognize him.
Whatcha gonna do? Watch this this is art class.
RIGGS: Oh, now, yeah, Hitler.
Now I recognize him.
Gentlemen.
Why am I not surprised to see you underdressed and vandalizing art? Well, we were just in the neighborhood, and I am infatuated with your interior design.
Well, see, someone redecorated my trailer, and it is a mess.
MURTAUGH: Ugly.
There's glass shards and bullet casings everywhere.
Blech.
- Can you help him? - Not sure I can.
Well, see, there was this Harley that was kind of parked out front, just lingering about before the incident, and it just so happens that it's registered to this very address.
Well, I don't drive a motorcycle.
But I know someone who does.
Huh.
Can we get security? (PEOPLE MURMURING) NATHAN: Hey, let's go, pal.
Martin? What the hell are you doing here? Your son and Detective Murtaugh were just asking about your motorcycle.
(LAUGHS SOFTLY) Well, I should've known.
Why? What happened? Well, apparently, you tried to kill me.
MURTAUGH: Hey, Riggs.
Let's go get a warrant, do this right.
But it wouldn't be the first time you tried that, would it, Pops? Wasn't me.
I came to your trailer to talk to you.
Thought you might be able to help your little brother.
He's now in county lockup.
Like father, like son.
Okay, why don't we take this family therapy somewhere else? Let's go.
(GUNS CLICKING) - WOMAN: Oh, dear.
- MAN: Stay back, stay back.
All right, easy, guys.
Come on, let's not get agitated.
Stand down, boys.
His bark's worse than his bite.
Hey, Rog? Correct me if I'm wrong, but is it or is it not illegal for a felon to carry a firearm? Mm-hmm.
You're gonna bust me on a parole violation? Nah.
When I take your ass in, you'll be wearing a toe tag.
Would've been nice, you know? What's that? You know (CLEARS THROAT) Move back home, live a simple life with Molly.
You can still have that.
Come on, I can't take this war between me and my dad back to Texas.
Why is it easier for you to believe your father wants to kill you than to believe he doesn't? (EXHALES) His eyes.
The night Jake shot him.
You just never forget the look in a man's eyes who wants to kill you.
It's like a reptile.
Cold, and void of love, you know? Focused.
I'm not asking you to forget it, and I'm not asking you to forgive him.
(GROANING): Oh, Lord, then, what are you asking me to do? Just don't be all shrinky, just for once, say it.
I'm asking you to forgive yourself.
For what? I didn't do anything, I was a kid.
Exactly.
You had a gun pointed at your father, you had the chance to shoot him, and you did nothing.
Why? Why didn't I kill my dad? (LAUGHING): That's what you're gonna ask me? I don't know.
God, 'cause I was 'Cause I was scared, I was weak.
'Cause I was a 12-year-old boy, and he's my dad.
I mean, he was supposed to protect me.
But he didn't.
(CRYING): No.
And every day since then, I Every day since then, I regret not killing his ass.
But until you forgive yourself, you'll never have the peace that you need to move on with yourself, and with Molly.
(EXHALES, LAUGHS) (SNIFFLES) I don't know.
I just can't shake this feeling I'm gonna get another shot at it.
(GLASS SHATTERS) What the hell are you doing here? Where's my security? I sent the boys home.
You? They work for me.
I need bail for my boy.
He's stuck in prison.
Couple million ought to do it.
And, what, you think I have it in my robe? No.
But I was thinking you might call that lawyer, who's laundering all your money.
So you overhear one conversation, and you think you understand how it all works? Eh Little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
Yeah.
(EXHALES) I'm, uh not a learned man, but I am trying to improve myself.
(GRUNTING) Now.
I sure would appreciate that introduction.
BAILEY: Hey, Riggs.
We got the forensics from the beach.
Tire treads do not match your father's.
He didn't do it.
Hmm.
Okay, so that didn't get the reaction that I was hoping for, but maybe this will.
Beach treads indicate racing tires.
Two KTM Dukes were reported stolen yesterday, one red, one black.
The red one was just spotted outside of a bar called The Late Shift, downtown.
Nice work, Bailey.
Look, don't tell Rog, all right? He's made it this long without getting himself killed.
I'd hate for something to happen on the last day.
What? I don't want to fill out the paperwork.
I won't say a word.
You won't say a word about what? Oh, nothing.
Nothing you need to worry about.
I wasn't worried.
And now I am.
Bailey? Um well He ruined it, didn't he? (SIGHS) There's a surprise party for you, at your house.
Okay? Chocolate fountain, the whole thing.
Really? Yeah, hey, look, you better act surprised when you walk in the door.
Did I tell you? Don't try to pull one over - on Roger Mayfield Murtaugh.
- They can't pull one over one me.
Ah, you better act surprised.
Ah.
(LAUGHS) Have some unis follow him.
I don't want him out there without protection.
Aye, aye, Captain.
"Yes, sir, Captain.
" We're not pirates.
Yes, sir, Captain.
(ENGINE TURNS OFF) (MUSIC PLAYING FAINTLY NEARBY) (INDISTINCT CHATTER INSIDE BAR) Hey, guys, how are you? Look, I found this beauty parked out front.
I was wondering who it belonged to.
No? All right, here-here's another one.
Who in here tried to kill me this morning? Just let me see a show of hands.
Come on, guys, I'm sure there was a contract, which means you didn't get paid, because I'm still alive.
Right? Let's go ahead and get this over with so you can go back to your lives.
I'm not gonna be able to go back to mine; I'll be dead, of course.
What the hell are you doing on my bike? Wait a minute, this is your bike? Damn right it is, now get your ass off it.
I'm-I'm sorry, just out of curiosity, you didn't try to kill me this morning, did you? No, but I'm just about to.
(ENGINE REVS OUTSIDE) You know what? I'm gonna need to borrow this, sir.
(ENGINE STARTS, REVS) I'm a nice guy If you catch me in the right mind But otherwise, I might ride darker than the night sky Mobbing with a tight tribe feeling likewise 'Bout to light five Molotovs flying through the windows of your high-rise I want to watch it all fall - (HORNS HONKING) - To the ground Tear the city up, tear it all down Ring the alarm till the sirens sound Everyone was rioting and running all around Ring the alarm till the sirens sound Everyone was rioting and running all around Ring the alarm, ring the alarm.
(SHOUTS) (GRUNTS) Hey.
Who tried to kill me? Hey! Was it Nathan Riggs? Was it my dad? (MUMBLING): It wasn't What? It wasn't you.
It wasn't It wasn't you.
I'm home.
All by myself.
Guys, I hear you breathing.
(PHONE RINGING) (LAUGHING): Oh, this is amateur hour.
Hey, Riggs.
Rog, it wasn't me.
- You're the target.
- (GUN CLICKS) (GUNFIRE OVER PHONE) (SCREAMING) Roger?! MURTAUGH: So I guess this means I'm not gonna get the chocolate fountain? Surprise.
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh.
Do not touch that rug.
That's a limited edition microfiber.
Put it back.
Murtaugh, there's blood and human viscera on it.
That's nothing a little seltzer can't handle.
- (PHONE RINGING) - Seltzer? Yeah.
Hey, Trish.
Oh, God, Roger.
Are you all right? Baby, my heart is racing.
I could feel the bullets whizzing by my head.
What if you were home or the kids? We weren't.
The kids are with my aunt.
They're perfectly safe.
God, I'm just glad we're done with this.
With what? All of it.
Everyday worry that you're in the field, constantly putting your life on the line.
All of it.
Yeah.
It's over.
I just got to head back to the precinct to make a list of the suspects.
- You know? - Okay.
I'm leaving the office now.
- I'm on my way.
- Okay.
(CHUCKLES) Hey, baby.
It's 12:01.
You're not a detective anymore.
You made it.
Yeah.
I made it.
See you, baby.
(MAN SPEAKING SOFTLY NEARBY) $2 million right now.
(QUIETLY): Alan, what are you still doing here? ALAN: Even if I wanted to, I couldn't get you the money tonight.
NATHAN: Why is that? ALAN: Because I don't have access to the accounts, okay? Only Trish Murtaugh does.
Murtaugh? Her husband a cop? Yeah.
And she changed her passwords this morning.
So I'm gonna need a little more time.
If Trish can get me the money, what do I need you for? ALAN: Whoa, hey, what's with the gun?! I said I'd get it for you.
- I just need a day - (GUNSHOT) (DOOR OPENS) RIGGS: Scrapbooking on company time again.
You know the department frowns on that.
I'm going through some old case files looking for suspects.
- Any luck? - Nah.
But my first order as captain is to rename this the Murtaugh Wing.
Put away a lot of bad guys, buddy.
Mm-hmm.
And there's always more.
Well, that's the gig, isn't it? Not for me.
Not anymore.
Someone almost took me out tonight and I-I can't escape this feeling that What? that being captain puts me one foot closer to the grave than any bullet ever could.
Well (CLEARS THROAT) If it's any consolation there's not a cop in this building that doesn't respect you.
Thanks, man.
And it only took you two years and a one-way ticket out of here to open up.
You still going? I don't know.
What? Why not? Hard to move forward, Rog, when you can't let things go.
I get it.
You can't leave me behind.
Perfectly understandable.
That's not what I said.
Your-your mouth is not saying it, but your eyes are telling me everything.
Mm.
What are my eyes telling you right now? They're saying, "I love you, man.
" You're delusional.
You know, if you make someone say they love you, it's not - Guys.
- (CHATTER QUIETS) You need to see this.
Records from the hitter's burner phone.
Several calls from a law firm.
What firm? Your wife's.
(ELEVATOR BELL CHIMES) She's still not answering her phone.
(PHONE RINGING NEARBY) Wait.
I hear it ringing.
(PHONE RINGING) MURTAUGH: She was recording something.
Stay in there, Rog! ALAN: I don't have access to the accounts, okay? - Only Trish Murtaugh does.
- Riggs.
Riggs! It's your dad! What? He's got her.
What the hell is he doing with my wife?! I don't know, Rog.
Look, just calm down.
What the hell is happening?! I don't know, Rog, but obviously he needs something from her.
- We'll get her back.
- How? You gonna call him? You gonna talk to him? No, you can't call him.
- Riggs, this is Trish.
- He's not gonna listen.
So then what? What?! He took something you love.
We take something from him.
NATHAN: I need $2 million transferred into my account.
TRISH: All this time, Alan was laundering money.
He put out the hit on my husband.
NATHAN: Hey.
Quit stalling.
Are you gonna kill me after I make this transfer? Would knowing make it any better? No.
(TYPING) It's done.
Well, I guess we're all finished here, boys.
Let's make a move.
Step out of the car.
Turn around.
Turn around! You don't have to do this.
Please, I (CRYING): I have children and a husband.
It's not personal.
You just got caught in the middle of something.
- (GUN CLICKS) - (CRIES) (PHONE RINGING) Yeah.
Dad, you-you got to help me.
Son? RIGGS: Hey, Pop.
How you doing? What the hell are you doing, Martin? Ah, just thought it was time for a little family reunion.
Hey, Riggs.
I know, Rog.
The only thing that matters is getting Trish back.
(SNIFFS) Let's talk inside.
Out here is fine.
Love what you've done with the place.
Let's just get this over with, all right? Thought we might have a drink first.
I don't do that anymore.
Make an exception.
Might be the last time we see each other.
I'll be sure to celebrate after.
Suit yourself.
Here's to family.
Now let's talk terms.
Trish for Garrett.
Nothing to discuss.
There is one thing.
When we leave here today you won't come after us.
That's a big ask.
I'm not asking.
I'm telling.
How's that? Well, you got to think about that girl of yours.
Molly and her son.
The thing is, son I can get to them any time I want.
Any time.
Now you want that drink? Easy, Riggs.
Take it easy.
Come here.
Baby, you okay? - Yeah.
- (SMOOCHES) Did they hurt you? Are you okay? I'm okay now.
I'm okay.
(HELICOPTER WHIRRING) (GUN CLICKS) Rog! - Get Trish out of here! - Why? Go! (TIRES SCREECHING) (SHOUTS) (GRUNTING) (TIRES SCREECH) Baby, can you drive? - Yes.
- I got to go back.
Hey.
Bring him back.
Copy that, beautiful.
(GRUNTING) You're still a little rabbit, aren't you? (CHOKING) - (SHOUTS) - Dad! - Dad! - (GUN CLICKS) (LAUGHS) Don't miss.
Pull it! (GUNSHOTS) (GASPING) NATHAN: Garrett! Get back here! Garrett! (GRUNTING) Didn't raise much of a fighter, did you? (GUN CLICKS) (GRUNTS) - (GRUNTS) - Riggs, Riggs.
You okay? (GROANS) (GRUNTS) Did you blow up my trailer? No, tha-that was like that when I got here.
(KNOCKING) - Hey.
- Hi.
I hear congratulations are in order.
You're moving.
Excited to get rid of me? - Sure.
- Good.
So when do you and Molly hit the road? Tonight.
She's at home, packing up.
Shouldn't you be helping with that? Uh, no heavy lifting.
Doctor's orders.
How are you holding up? Um, I'm all right.
I do have a couple of therapists in Texas I can recommend.
You know, I was thinking more of, like, a long-distance relationship.
- Might be in order.
- Call me anytime.
I'm terrible at good-byes.
Me, too.
I'll see you around, Doc.
(KNOCKING) Hello? Rog?! You decent?! ALL: Surprise! (HORNS BLOWING) (CHEERING) Monty, my man.
All right.
So no one went to work today, is that - is that what we're? - We just thought We all thought that you deserved a proper send-off.
And we couldn't get our money back for the chocolate fountain.
- That sounds about right.
- (CHUCKLES) SCORSESE: Speech, speech, speech Um (CLEARS THROAT) look, um this is all very touching.
And, uh, I'm glad I wasn't armed.
So, good? (OVERLAPPING CHATTER) Go ahead, man Yeah, huh, huh, huh, huh - I'll be right back.
