Amish Mafia (2012) s03e02 Episode Script

You all ready to do this? Tonight on "amish mafia" When you're in a field where no one's around you for Miles, things can get pretty wild.
Making money is the most important thing to levi.
Every few years, the amish leaders of the amish aid get together to discuss what's going on and what's going on in the amish community.
We want to try and find out as much information about that meeting as we can.
There's not much more I can do, legally, for you.
Go to jail or cooperate.
Not on me.
I can't believe I just sent Steve off.
On an airplane for the first time.
I'm gonna go flirt with some hot, English guys.
Don't keep your head up too high.
You're still working for me.
You're not working for yourselves.
I'm not asking you.
I'm telling you.
Yes, there really is an amish mafia.
Yes, sir.
What am I being pulled over for? You were going 65 Miles an hour in a 30.
Your right-rear taillight is out.
What are you in such a hurry for? I didn't know it was a 30.
Not on me.
All right.
Let's go.
Just start it right there.
Should I put my full name in? Yeah, you have to put your full name in, not "big Steve.
" No.
What destination? Where are you going? Philadelphia.
No, that's where you are now.
You're not nervous to get on here, are you? No.
I think it's very weird that levi sent Steve to Iowa.
I don't think Steve's ever left Lancaster before.
You all right? Yeah, I'm all right.
I don't know why levi would have sent an amish guy on a plane.
Bishop's gonna come after him again.
It was stupid, but I'm not taking the fall for this one, at least.
I can't understand why stuff is so complicated.
In the English world.
In the amish world, it's not like that.
The English people are a little bit more lazier than the amish.
It's usually against the church to go on a plane, but levi asked me to do it, and I'm doing it.
It's very rare.
That an English person will convert to being amish because it's such a big sacrifice.
You have to give up your English way of lmng.
All the modern conveniences that you're used to They're gone.
And you can forget about nice clothes.
And getting your nails done.
The amish people really aren't that receptive to newcomers.
In order to convert over into the amish, you have to get permission from the bishop.
You have to confess your sins to the amish church and live the amish lifestyle for at least a year, and you have to learn Dutch.
There are some good reasons for joining the amish.
I think some people are looking for a stronger sense of culture and community.
You have to learn the amish ways, especially being a woman.
You have to learn to cook, clean, can food.
It's not easy being an amish woman.
Esther? I really like it.
It's beautiful.
Thank you.
You want to step inside? He's videoed it now.
You can see him from here.
He has a flip cam out.
I think that's it.
Get the license-plate number.
What do you want? I've known about Wayne's secret girlfriend a long time.
I'm the one that put aluminum siding on his girlfriend's parents' house.
Merlin's been like a family friend of mine.
For a very long time.
He's always been very nice to me.
I know Wayne really doesn't like him, but really, that's his business.
Merlin's always been really a sweet guy.
So, how long has it been since you've been in a buggy ride? Since I was like 7.
Was it this cold? I don't remember, honestly.
Wayne thinks that he's outsmarted me by being in charge of amish aid.
God has inspired a plan in me.
To go after Wayne's number-one weakness.
Being amish, my parents always told me when you take a girl in a buggy, it's important that you use your body heat to keep each other warm.
One of the most intimate things an amish man can do for a woman is take her out on a buggy ride.
This is something that Wayne's girlfriend has no idea about, but I'm sure Wayne does.
Let's take the blanket, and let's tuck you in a little bit here.
Okay.
Let's warm you up.
Here.
There we go.
How's that feel? Better.
Are you warm now? A little bit, thank you.
You still look cold.
You can scoot a little closer if you want.
I'm all right.
Merlin has known my family for a very long time, but he's been very flirtatious with me.
Have you ever been with a stallion like this? No.
- Come on.
- I'm like a bronco! The lord told me in my heart I need to keep my enemies close, but the women of my enemies even closer.
I know it's cold, but you can scoot as close as you like.
I'm a guy.
You don't have to be afraid of me.
As soon as I realized that Merlin wanted to give me a little bit more than just a buggy ride, I asked him to take me home 'Cause I was starting, definitely, to feel a little uncomfortable.
What happened? The English kids threw mud at you.
Try and relax.
I'll go take care of this.
This isn't the first time that I've heard this happening.
I think it's the same kids, and I think I know where they are.
I mean, you can't be throwing mud pies at buggies and expect that nothing's gonna happen about it.
You know, when you do that kind of thing, it can scare the horses.
They can run off the road, have a crash, and I've heard a lot worse things lately.
One officer tells me in his 30 years in law enforcement, he has never seen the amish targeted by a drive-by shooting.
The horse died before a vet was able to arrive.
That's definitely them.
If they didn't do anything wrong, they wouldn't be running.
Hold on.
What are you gonna do? What? You know what you've been doing.
Come here.
What the did you think was gonna happen? Mud pies on there.
You made a really big mistake.
See how many times you throw mud at a buggy again.
Pretty hard for you to throw mud at a buggy when you're in one of these, huh? I don't see how he can't tell his friends.
Someone's gonna find him there, 'cause he's not getting down by himself.
Every few years, the amish leaders get together.
I'm gmng these amish kids a chance to cut loose.
Levi wants me to bring an amish girl home from Iowa.
Take a moment to locate the exit nearest you.
If needed, oxygen masks will be released overhead.
To start the flow of oxygen, reach up and pull the mask towards you.
I'm going to Iowa.
Okay.
Yeah, I'm going to Iowa, too.
I mean, we're all going to Iowa.
Okay, okay.
Well, he's huge, so he's like 6'3", and I don't think he could really fit in the plane.
Like, he was ducking when he walked in, and I was like, "please don't sit next to me.
" He seemed nervous.
Are you nervous? No.
Why? Are you nervous, too? Uh no.
I want to go see Caleb, 'cause I've been hearing stuff about him Stuff that I didn't tell him to do.
Gone his own ways, and it's not a good thing.
I got some payments that need to be collected, and I'd like for you to go do it.
Keep it quiet.
Nothing loud.
Levi called me so we could meet.
I'm not sure if he wants to give me a hard time about spreading manure over that guy, but the fact of the matter is I got the job done.
I got an envelope full of money for levi.
So levi's probably gonna run his mouth, like he normally does.
I'll give him the money, and then, all of a sudden, he's gonna get real quiet.
The problem's gonna be solved.
Gmng levi money is like gmng a baby a pacifier.
Hi, Caleb.
What's going on, levi? How's business? You getting stuff under control? Yeah, absolutely.
Kind of getting a little ballsy out there.
It's really not the way I told you.
You got to do the things the way I tell you.
You're getting a little too far here.
I just don't want to bother you with, you know, some of the smaller details.
Oh, you're bothering me if you're doing things wrong.
That's bothering me.
It's gonna get you in trouble.
At least some stuff's going good.
Looks like a good bit of money.
Well, some of those guys that didn't want to pay ended up paying up.
No more collections.
Just throw a field party.
You'll be so far back in the woods, you can't possibly get in trouble.
Well, a field party is exactly what it sounds like.
It's a party in the field, and it is crazy.
When you're in a field where no one's around you for Miles, things can get pretty wild.
It's drinking, drugs, sex I'm telling you, it's pure amish craziness.
I've been to field parties, and they've had over 1,000 people there.
It can get pretty dark in amish country, so these amish kids have been known to sneak off in the corn fields.
You don't know who's hooked up with who until the sun comes up.
Many amish marriages start in a corn field.
I used to say that I met her in the corn field.
All right.
Don't keep your head up too high.
You're still working for me.
You're not working for yourself.
I know.
I hear you.
I've been doing this for years.
I know how to do things the right way.
Some of these young guys think they can do the way they want to do it.
They think they're cool and they're tough, but they're not as tough as they look.
He's going a little too far.
He's doing things his own way, and he's getting out of hand.
He's a big show-off.
But he gave me an envelope.
It had a good bit of money in it, and money means everything.
Let's just find out what they're saying, what's going on.
Good.
It's been a long morning.
We're both very tired and a little stressed out.
We're just looking at some serious things here, and as I said, gentlemen, we're just exhausted, guys.
We'd really like to go and get some rest, okay? I appreciate it.
Please respect our privacy, please.
Okay.
Thank you, thank you.
I brought sausage and cheese and stuff.
He said it was his first flight, and he seemed a little nervous at first, but he was fine after a little bit.
Kept saying, "it's just like a bus," and that's what I said, too.
I was like, "it's just like a bus ride.
" Thank you.
Good luck with your mission.
I hope I see you sometime.
Good, how about you? Take me to this address.
We've gotten some information that levi is gonna be having a meeting with some other indmduals from outside the area.
They're gonna be coming in here shortly, and we want to try and find out as much information about that meeting as we can.
The guy I'm going to see now I know pretty well.
He's definitely power-hungry, and the information that he has could hurt the organization.
Just stay here.
Hi.
Hey, John.
I just need to talk to you real quick.
I don't have no warrants out, so what are you doing on my porch? No, no.
I know you don't have any warrants out yet.
But, you know, we want to give you the opportunity to come talk to me.
Why would I have to come talk to you guys about it? Hey, just to help yourself out.
Well, I'm not that kind of person.
I hate this guy.
Me and him got a long history together.
I'm not doing him any favors.
Now with John being gone, who knows? We don't know if he's gonna have to do jail time or not or, if he does, how long.
Everything's just kind of up in the air right now.
What do you mean you're not that kind of person? And I'm not doing that.
I'm sorry.
I'm not a rat.
I'm not a rat.
I'm not a rat.
Listen, listen, listen, listen.
All right, calm down.
All right.
I may have only gone to the eighth grade, but I'm not dumb.
I know what this guy wants.
He's trying to ask me to be a rat, which in the amish, we call it a "rot.
" Don't come to my house and tell me to calm down.
You're on my porch step here.
I ain't got no warrants.
I ain't got nothing.
So I'm not scared to tell you off.
I heard there's some rumors going on that levi is gonna have a meeting going on with some amish indmduals coming in from out of town.
Can you tell me anything about that? I don't know what you're talking about, so why don't you see your way off the porch and have a nice day? They're already asking me when the next party is gonna be.
This particular situation could call for some jail time.
Just stay outside here, just stop in the vehicle.
I'll be right out.
Get away from the door! Stop! Stop, stop! Stop! What are you doing? Get out of here.
Go, go.
Every few years, the amish leaders of the amish aid get together to discuss what's going on and what's going on in the amish community.
The leaders meeting is called the So, this year, I'm gonna have it in my area.
I'm gonna have it in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
We haven't had a meeting in Lancaster since Esther's dad, Mr.
schmucker, was in charge.
Other leaders' meetings, I usually had to sit in the car while Merlin went inside.
Now I finally get to have a say.
It's a very important meeting.
Nobody knows where we're at and where we're gonna be.
They never know.
And the cameras will definitely not be welcome inside.
I'm sick and tired of hearing about Mr.
schmucker.
I run this now.
I don't care what he did.
I'm going into Steven breit's office.
My lawyer called me.
He wanted to have a meeting before the court date, probably go over some paperwork with me and let me know what could happen.
I mean, we've gotten out of stuff like this in the past.
I'm pretty confident he'll be able to get me out again.
All right, John, have a seat, please, and let's talk.
This particular situation you gotten yourself into could call for some jail time.
It's some serious jail time, and that concerns me.
I think I've done all I can do.
I've spoken to my contacts.
I've met with the police.
I've even spoke to members of the prosecutor's office.
I can't tell you what's gonna happen.
I don't have a crystal ball.
There's not much more I can do, legally, for you.
Your choices are go to jail or cooperate.
Those are your options.
Nothing really interesting I mean, nothing really exciting.
Potential jail time, of course, like the last couple times.
I don't even know.
I don't know what to think.
I don't know.
We're gonna go.
We're gonna get faced and Whoo! Whoo! See? I was wondering if you would give him a second chance.
You got a lot of nerve.
The party's going great.
I'm gmng these amish kids a chance to cut loose.
My lawyer said I'm looking at potential jail time, but I don't want that to happen.
I think the best chance I have to stay out of prison is to get closer to levi so I can keep an eye on him, and Esther is gonna help me do that.
Darn it, John, you shouldn't be outside.
What are you doing here? I haven't been able to tell levi about John, because there hasn't been the right time for it, but John needs to lay low, because if people see him and tell levi before me, that could be big trouble.
I would like you to talk to levi to try to get me back in.
We're not gonna do this again.
This is a great place you have here A lot better than the old place.
If levi's willing to give you a house, I bet you he's willing to do anything for you.
People can't just do stuff for each other out of the goodness of their heart? I mean, they can, but levi usually does it for some reason.
And I didn't come all the way back from north Dakota for nothing.
I came all the way back here to start over in the group.
I'm not asking you.
I'm telling you.
And if you don't tell him, I'll go tell him about your double life.
She lives half of her life amish and the other half English.
This is it.
We're ready.
We're done.
We're gonna go.
We're gonna get faced and Whoo! Whoo! See? Hey! And I'm gonna go flirt with some hot, English guys, and I'm gonna dance.
I need Esther to use all of her charm to convince levi to let me back in the group.
My freedom depends on it.
You're gonna go tell him.
No, you're gonna go tell him.
You've run out of time.
After the nice, romantic buggy ride, I want to bring Wayne's girlfriend a nice, romantic gift Something that is widely cherished in the amish community.
I want to bring her a peacock feather.
The peacock feather is one of the many traditions.
That go into amish dating.
A peacock feather is similar to flowers, but it has an added meaning because it's so much harder to come by.
Listen, let me tell you about peacock feathers.
Not only have I given them, but I've been raising peacocks just for this sole purpose.
Gmng a peacock feather means you want to park your buggy in her garage.
Amish dating is usually run by the parents.
And set up after church.
The parents naturally want to keep their eye on things.
So that nothing funny happens.
Amish dating is very similar to English dating, but there's less action At least when the parents are around.
Come on, there.
Giddyap, giddyap.
I want Wayne to know that I haven't forgot about him.
Wayne's girlfriend She may not know what this peacock feather means, but he will.
I just want him to remember that I know about his double leben.
This is all part of a chess game.
I want to make sure that I get into Wayne's head.
If God wants me to sleep with Wayne's girlfriend to save the amish community, that's a sacrifice I'm gonna have to make.
Hello.
Hey.
Come on in.
I wanted to come and tell you and let you know that John's back in town.
What, you don't think I know that? I mean But I just wanted to tell you.
After what John did to protect me, I owe it to him to try to get him a job with levi.
He needs a job.
He needs to help with helping the family out.
So you're asking me? I was wondering if you would give him a second chance.
You've got a lot of nerve.
Y'all ready to do this?! Field parties are different from hut parties because they're never in the same place twice.
The church can't find out where you are.
I don't know.
I think you might be afraid.
I think I owe you a $5 back.
No, no.
I'm just kidding.
I'm keeping that.
Aw! There you go.
Thank you.
Thank you! Give her an extra glow stick.
Thank you.
The party's going great.
It seems like every kid in the area is here.
Making money is the most important thing to levi.
Ready? I'm gmng these amish kids a chance to cut loose.
They're having a great time.
They're already asking me when the next party's gonna be, and I'm gonna charge even more.
Do it again! I guess I'll take him back.
I'll let him work for me.
What's that? Oh, it's just a feather that Merlin gave me.
You give somebody a peacock feather, it means they want to be with you.
I said, "why?!" In the amish community is that we do not date outsiders.
We've been taught growing up.
That the English world is corrupted, and it only leads to temptation and leads you straight to hell.
Dating an English person.
Is strictly forbidden by the church, and if you're dating an English person, you're lmng a double leben.
If you dare date an English person, the church will condemn you for bringing the sins of the outside world into the amish church.
My neighbor was once caught with an English girl, so the family moved all his clothes, dresser and everything, out into the backyard so that the church wouldn't shun the whole family.
If you're dating an English person, you can pretty much count on being shunned.
Esther.
I need levi to get John back in his crew before John starts talking too much and saying things that he really shouldn't be saying.
Can you guys please back up? Go.
I just came to see if you made a decision yet about whether or not John can work for you.
I'm sure you're not in a hurry, but I kind of need to know.
Like, John's my family.
He's always gonna be my family.
And, you know, you guys are both somebody I care about.
I never hated John.
It's just the stuff that he did and he got led into.
But he never could handle big jobs and never could really do small jobs, and he always stole money from them.
What he's done to me was not good at all, and I normally don't bring people back.
I guess I'll take him back.
I'll let him work for me.
Trust me when he gets back, it's not gonna be easy work.
He's gonna be in the for a long time, until I can trust him fully again.
Oh, I'm sure he expects that.
And I don't need you behind him all the time and say, "give him this.
Give him that.
" It's gonna be my choice, not yours, 'cause I'm not going through this again.
I can get levi to do whatever I want.
Ever since we've been teenagers, he has never been able to say no to me.
I'll consider it because of your family.
Well, you sure picked a hell of a spot to meet.
Yeah.
Figure stay out of the public's eye a little bit.
He's trying to get me to be a rat.
I don't want to be a rat.
Being a rat in the amish community, it's one of the worst things you can do.
If church or the amish community finds out I'm being a rat and talk to the English world about the amish community They might end up sending me away again.
The information that you shared panned out about the field party.
But I don't want to go back to jail either, 'cause, I mean, levi He's done a few things to me.
So, I got to say payback sucks at that point.
What's up? What's that? Oh, it's just a feather that Merlin gave me.
Merlin? I thought you said you wouldn't see Merlin again.
Yes, he took my girlfriend out to dinner behind my back while I was at work.
Yes, he did.
You're my girlfriend! Why the hell would he give you something like that? If you give somebody a peacock feather, it means they want to be with you.
To me, it says, "I'm gonna kick somebody's ass.
" Merlin is gonna pay for crossing the line into my personal life.
But before I take care of him, I have to make sure this conversion happens fast, before amish aid gets taken away from me.
The next time I see you, you better be wearing the head covering.
This is bull Esther finally did what I asked her to Got me a job with levi.
It's about time I get the respect I deserve.
Hey, levi.
How does he keep finding us? Hold on, hold on! Why? I said, "why?!" Next week on "amish mafia" You're letting things get out of control.
Levi is just preoccupied.
With everything that's going on.
It seems like his needs come before the community's.
We could get married eventually at some point.
It's against the law to have weapons of mass destruction, but no one said anything about cow farts.
I'm used to dealing with everybody shutting me down, and it's my turn to be on top now.
We got meth in the community.
I'm gonna end it now.
