Animal Kingdom (US) (2016) s03e04 Episode Script

Wolves

1 Let's talk about that business opportunity.
Some Vietnamese got a place over on Front Street in National City.
Pill mill.
If we don't pull a job soon, we're gonna run out of money.
I got something we can do right now.
J: This place pulls in over 100 grand a week.
Security bars on the windows and the door.
The bank.
Two guys inside, both with handguns.
We can't go in through the front.
They're just gonna lock themselves in the back - before we can even get to them.
- Yep.
You're Clark Lincoln.
You signed my KTM hat at the X Games in L.
A.
, like, 10 years ago, man.
I wore that thing till it fell apart.
You pulled a job? Who did you use? DERAN: Ox and Colby.
DYLAN: She took She took my coke, okay? [GRUNTS.]
Jesus Christ.
Hey, I'm Nicky.
I know.
Nicky, stop.
NICKY: Wait, w-what's going on? I'm I'm really sorry about earlier, okay? MIA: I need a place to crash.
I'll have to ask Smurf.
Smurf's in jail.
I'll take the couch.
She stares deeply Locked inside me Burnin' brightly One they know that I cannot take Waitin' for it all to begin Every night now, they'll win Come and meet my black hole Got a big black hole Got a big black hole I've got a big black hole I've got a big black, big black hole Got a big black hole inside of me [BOTH PANTING.]
[BOTH MOANING, GRUNTING.]
[BOTH BREATHING HEAVILY.]
[PANTING.]
[SHOWER TURNS ON.]
GOODWIN: My client has been here for weeks and the evidentiary hearing keeps getting pushed.
Come on, Jackie.
We requested extra time to research applicable law.
Bullshit.
She can't do that.
They can.
They can, but not forever.
Now, let's, uh Let's talk about my 995 motion.
Your 995 The stuff about probable cause isn't enough Why haven't we been given the ballistics report yet? You will.
There's a process.
Listen, you wanna go to the mattresses over a reasonable basis test I think you haven't released the ballistics report because you don't like what it says.
As you can see, my client is understandably passionate about her defense.
Now, getting back to P.
C.
Have you looked for other suspects? We're comfortable with our theory of the crime.
Then why do you have a state detective present at my legal conference? What's the matter there, Pearce? You run out of illegals to round up down at the 7-Eleven? This isn't helping.
I'm asking the questions that you should be asking.
Let's make this simple, Jackie.
Evidentiary hearing and discovery this week, or release my client.
Goodbye.
Oh, my God.
Bacon is ridiculous.
- Still there? - Mm.
J: Third day in a row.
NICKY: Is that why we're, uh, buying groceries we don't need? Something like that.
So what's the job? Come on, J.
It's better if you don't know in case the cops show up.
No.
I can contribute.
There will be something for you.
So, what's the deal with, uh, Mia? What? The girl that, uh, cold-cocked a drug dealer.
The girl you let sleep on our couch.
- She's a friend of Smurf's.
- Oh, really? Smurf and an 18-year-old chola are friends? Look, she's who I have to pay to protect Smurf in prison, okay? But you can't tell the others that.
If they find out that that's where the money's going We just don't need the drama.
You know, they're all gonna think that you're doing her.
[SIGHS.]
GOODWIN: You should let me do my job.
They don't have a damn thing on me.
You sure? The bullet that killed Javi Cano did not come from my gun.
GOODWIN: I'm going to assume you're speaking hypothetically because, absent evidence, the only way someone would be certain of that is if they were present at the time Mr.
Cano got shot.
And I'm certain you are not gonna tell me that.
What is your plan? Accusing them of withholding exculpatory information is serious, especially when you do it to the D.
A.
's face.
- Am I wrong? - That isn't the point.
No, it is exactly the point! All right, listen.
Let's say, hypothetically, they are trying to find something else to charge you with.
Will they? No.
Great.
Then you have nothing to worry about.
[DOOR CLOSES.]
I can't keep the delay tactics going forever.
I have surveillance on her boys now.
I need more time.
Yeah, we'd all love a little more time.
Unfortunately, there's this thing called the Constitution.
You can't keep people in prison indefinitely until you find something else to charge them with.
One of the bullets in Javi Cano's head was from Smurf's gun.
You mean the one that entered after he was already dead? I've got a dozen other cases in front of this judge.
I am not blowing my credibility with him over this.
Mm.
No cilantro.
CRAIG: Oh, and O.
J.
You know, some guy came into the bar the other day asking for a screwdriver with turmeric in it.
Turmeric? Wow.
Family breakfast.
What's the occasion? CRAIG: [EXHALES SHARPLY.]
[EXHALES SHARPLY.]
Who's that? Just a friend.
Tapatío.
You got someone staying here? People don't stay here.
CRAIG: I have people stay here.
Girls you bang.
Was that police tail still on you this morning? Third day in a row.
No one else has a tail? - CRAIG: Unh-unh.
- You sure? Yo, if J can spot a tail, I sure as hell can.
Okay.
Good.
So there's one tail.
Let's take it to the garage.
Okay, so, the truck's gonna be there, right? CRAIG: The truck will be there.
Car's insured? Yes, the car is insured.
Because I'm not an idiot.
What? Someone asks if I've done a basic, obvious task, it implies I'm being an idiot.
Well, you're not being an idiot, but you are being a little bitch.
Why, because I'm the only one that thinks this job is bullshit? Oh, here we go.
A security guard outside, J's got a tail literally waiting for us to come out right now.
I'm just saying, those sound like significant risk factors to me.
J: I know.
- It's covered.
- Yeah? Okay.
It's covered.
- CRAIG: [COUGHS.]
- It'll be fine.
Yeah.
[EXHALES SHARPLY.]
POPE: You know the night before a job, you invite someone into the house? It was a last-minute thing.
Yeah, it was.
It was.
You know what you're doing? The steel door Which way does it swing? Toward the back.
You are 100 percent about that? Because Deran is right The second the guys hear something on the inside, they're gonna make a move.
I vouched for you on this.
I saw a panic bar.
You know, the thing in the middle of the door I know what a panic bar is.
Well, I saw one, okay? The door swings toward the back.
And how far from the back wall is this door? 18 to 20 feet.
I got this.
Okay.
Okay.
CRAIG: Yo, bitchin' ride.
Could've gotten a Porsche.
You wanna pay 25 percent of that? POPE: How'd you get this thing past emissions? - I know a guy.
- What, a guy with a broken smog checker? It starts and it goes.
It's perfect.
[ENGINE STARTS.]
[ENGINE STARTS.]
We got him? We got him.
Grey sedan.
POPE: Yep.
CRAIG: It pisses me off.
The tail.
He's supposed to be a professional.
See without being seen.
It's just, you know learn your craft.
That girl you have at the house - Mia? What about her? - Yeah.
DERAN: Yeah, I know you didn't go to high school with her.
She's got juvie written all over her.
What's her deal? I, uh I hooked up with her at a party.
But you can't tell Nicky, okay? I told her I'm just helping a friend out.
Okay, you know what? What we do is hard enough without relationship problems.
Shit'll ruin your life.
I'm handling it.
But thanks.
[ENGINE SHUTS OFF.]
DERAN: We're in position.
You awake over there? CRAIG: Yeah, I see you.
Okay, good.
All right, we're waiting on the signal.

False alarm.
Nothing was stolen.
Nobody tried to steal anything.
PEARCE: Last I checked, calling in a false alarm was a felony.
[SIGHS.]
The phone that called it in? Burner.
The car accident? They exchanged insurance info.
- And they filed - Got a police report to submit to the insurance company.
Yep.
So the Cody family's 40 miles from home, all this crap happens and for no reason.
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS.]
Does it seem odd to you that a nutritional supplement store has got security doors and barred windows? Let's take a walk.
[DOORBELL RINGS.]
Hello.
PEARCE: Bee pollen.
I hear it's a superfood.
[POUNDING IN BACKGROUND.]
Thank you for your time, ma'am.

How much is Smurf getting paid? Zero.
Look, we've all got bills to pay.
Okay, well, I have employees to pay.

Split it between the three of you.
Let's go.
[GLASS SHATTERS.]
[ GRIZFOLK'S "TROUBLEMAKER" PLAYS ON JUKEBOX.]
NICKY: After how we met, I was surprised to see you had a regular job.
What did you think? I don't know.
Like gun runner or fighter pilot or who knows what.
Turns out it's mufflers.
You're my troublemaker Who's Little Pete? - Big Pete's son.
- [CHUCKLES.]
No, he's my cousin.
I've been there a couple of years.
But I've been working since I was little.
Had to.
So, uh, yeah.
Not a gun runner.
And collecting Smurf's protection money.
That's why J lets you stay at the house, right? Your back is made of gold I take on extra work sometimes.
And you get that work from your cousin.
Sometimes.
Are you, like, in a gang? [CELLPHONE VIBRATES.]
Are the Codys a gang? We're a family.
Hmm.
And you're a part of that family? Well, J and I have been together for two years.
[CELLPHONE VIBRATES.]
You're my troublemaker How'd you meet? I was trying to buy a beer, and I had this really crappy fake ID, and the guy wouldn't sell it to me.
So J comes in, he puts $5 on the counter, and says, "We're taking the beer.
" Bad boy.
Yeah.
I had never seen him outside of algebra.
Hell, I had never ever heard him talk before.
But we go behind the liquor store and drink beer and make out.
It was awesome.
Hm.
And what? Y'all been thick as thieves ever since, huh? Well, J and I have been through a lot.
I was there when his mom died.

NICKY: They really wanted me to go with them, but it was like, "Seriously, Dad? Guam?" It's like an airstrip and two hotels.
[THE SCORE'S "REVOLUTION" PLAYS ON JUKEBOX.]
Where the hell is Guam? Somewhere in the ocean.

When I was growing up, it was the only DVD the group home had.
And I watched it over and over again.
And all those years are history now It never made any sense to me.
She gave it all up to grow legs, be with a dude.
- When she was a fish, she had everything.

[KEYPAD BEEPS.]
[LOCK DISENGAGES.]
BILLY: Yeah, so Frankie and I have been just driving up and down the coast.
CRAIG: Doing what? Uh, I wouldn't even know where to start, man.
You know, I heard Smurf got busted.
And, uh, I just thought it might be a great time to catch up.
'Cause, you know, she never really wanted me around.
And I hate to speak ill of the incarcerated, but Smurf could be a real ball buster.
All right, I gotta go.
[EXHALES SHARPLY.]
BILLY: Hey, man, you okay? Yeah.
It's no big deal.
You're my father.
As opposed to the hundreds of other guys that banged Smurf.
[SIGHS.]
Right.
I just thought maybe, you know, you might need a kidney one day.
[ENGINE STARTS.]
All right.
See ya later.
NICKY: Oh, I wanted to win that jacket.
ERIC: I bet it was super hot.
- It had fringe.
- [LAUGHS.]
I sold 149 boxes.
No one was even close to me.
But the night before we handed in our tallies, Kaylee DelNero's dad bought 150 boxes from her.
- [CELLPHONE VIBRATES.]
- He was a lawyer.
Oh.
Douche.
Well, I found out the morning of the check-in.
- Mm-hmm.
- So, I go up to him all sad "No one bought any cookies from me.
" [SIGHS.]
- Damn, Pete.
- And he buys two boxes right there.
You can't just leave a voicemail? - Boom.
151.
- Yeah.
Because I was with somebody.
You made a point of selling two boxes to the father of the girl who was going to beat you? Listen - Eat it, Kaylee DelNero.
- I heard some interesting Cody stuff.
You don't step to this Brownie.
[BOTH LAUGH.]
Nicky, you're really funny.
Ha, yeah.
No, seriously.
You're funny.
You're really interesting.
Oh thank you.
[CHUCKLES.]
They seem harmless.
They're not.
What do you remember about him? I remember him laughing while he took a piss in the kitchen sink.
I remember he's an asshole.
And I remember Smurf kicking him out.
Get rid of them.

Hey! Asshole! - Get up! - What? Jesus.
Why are the two burn-outs sleeping next to the pool? Because I didn't want them sleeping on the driveway.
Why are they here at all? Deran should get the chance to know his father.
- I told you to get rid of them! - Oh, you "told" me? - That's right! - Is that right?! Yes! I told you! God damn it! God damn it! Mollies from the pill mill? Those two shouldn't be here! It's fine, man! I've locked the door.

That's great.
My lawyer needs to see you.
Yeah, I'll pay him a visit soon.
It's hard to run a business all by yourself, isn't it? Everybody chipped in.
And they all took the right dose? 'Cause, you know, if you take just a little bit more than you should, it can be very dangerous.
Everyone's good.
[CHUCKLES.]
Tell me some other news.
Um We have a visitor.
Oh? His name's Billy.
- Billy? - Deran's dad.
Billy is in our house? Yeah.
