In The Dark (2019) s04e10 Episode Script

Who's that?
It's Trey.
You're running all of this?
How?
How? How did you do all this?
I'm a little offended
that you're so surprised.
I guess that explains
why we're not dead.
Yeah.
If you two were anybody else
Why the hell'd you bring us here
in the first place, bro?
Because the one thing I don't
have is people on the inside.
We're not gonna flip on the cops.
It's over, Trey.
We didn't know it was you.
It sucks, but
it is what it is.
Wait. Okay? Let's just
think about this.
Trey, he's like family to me.
Do you hear that, guys?
The cops are here anyway,
it doesn't matter.
I thought that was a possibility.
Is your girlfriend out there?
Yeah. Why?
Here.
Put her number in.
I don't want her involved, man.
Don't worry.
Nothing's gonna happen.
I just need to buy us some time
to get us out.
We can meet up later to discuss
you guys working for me.
No.
No, this is insane.
- Just put her number in.
- Do not.
- No, Darnell.
- D.
Come on.
What the hell is happening?
Darnell, no.
Call her.
Tell her we'll kill them
if they step foot in here.
Oh, my God.
What? It's the only way
to stop them from bursting
through those doors
in the next two minutes.
Hello?
We have Murphy and Darnell.
Take one step through those doors
and we'll kill them.
Do-do not step foot in here!
Gene!
Gene!
Gene.
They'll shoot if we go in.
I think she stopped them.
At least for now.
Darnell, we have him.
The guy in charge of
this entire thing. Come on.
"The guy in charge"?
- Murphy, it's me.
- I don't care.
We have no relationship, Trey.
You sold me out to save yourself, okay?
You remember that? Or did you forget?
Seriously?
Yeah. Seriously.
We got the place surrounded!
Come out with your hands up!
So, what's the plan?
- Shut up, Darnell.
- Well, first,
I need to know Murphy's
not gonna sell me out.
Oh, I sure am.
Murphy, come on. It's Trey.
You know him. He doesn't deserve prison.
But I do?
You want me to sacrifice
my freedom so he can have his?
Ah. Turn me in so you
don't have to do time.
That's the deal, isn't it?
I can give you all the
freedom in the entire world.
How much you want?
20 grand? 30?
50? Let me just get the money
and you can think about it.
I've been down this road before.
Trust me, with cops,
you'll never be free.
Turn me in, they'll want
the man above me.
Turn him in, they'll want someone else.
They'll have you by your balls
for the rest of your life.
Just take the money
and run.
But hang on.
Let me think.
Sarah, we got to move in.
Darnell's in there. They'll shoot.
We won't let that happen.
But they can't get away.
We got to go. Got to move. Move.
Move. Let's go.
Hands up!
Where the hell did they go?
They went that way!
I think to the basement.
Go! Go!
- What happened?
- Uh, a couple of guys
in-in masks, they held us at gunpoint.
- Murphy?
- Yeah.
You okay?
Yeah.
Watch your step right there.
There's a little slope on the driveway.
Murphy.
Oh, thank God.
Thanks, man. Yeah, sure.
Hey. I'm just glad you're okay.
Yeah. Come on.
Oh, God.
I'm sorry.
We're engaged now.
You don't get to ship me off anymore.
We're in this together.
- Yeah.
- Like, for real.
I know.
You're right.
Excuse me, I'm-I'm what?
Hello?
It was Trey.
What was Trey? What?
The guy we were looking for,
the head of Bolt is Trey.
And he gave me this not to turn him in.
Whoa! Whoa, whoa, my God.
And-and you just took it?
No, Max. I left it there.
According to Trey,
the cops had me by the balls.
Okay. Just put that down.
There was no guarantee
I'd be free after this.
So let's just go to Canada
or Mexico, like you said.
Wherever we want, Max.
Okay.
What?
- Yeah, let's do it.
- Really?
Yeah.
- Are you serious?
- Yeah.
Yeah, I'm serious.
Come here.
I love you so much. I love you
Mm, mm, mm. Mwah.
Yet again,
another raid that results
in absolutely nothing.
I know, but I think we're really close
to finding the head
of the Bolt operation.
You haven't made a single arrest.
Not a single one
You are honestly telling me
you can't find
some kids selling this thing?
We were trying to do things
a little differently.
No one asked you
to do things differently.
Actually, you did.
Well, then, my mistake.
I'm sorry
but you're done.
What?
I'm putting Peters in charge.
Peters?
You're actually going through with this?
Cool. He's an idiot, but
Well, fortunately for me,
your opinion doesn't really matter here.
I'm putting you on traffic duty for now.
In the meantime,
your performance is under review.
What, like, speeding tickets?
Yep.
Gene's one step up from a meter maid
and I'm basically
a giant pariah to the department
for even being associated with him.
Sarah, I am so sorry.
No, you don't have
anything to be sorry for.
This is all on me.
So, uh, what happens to Murphy's deal?
The new chief, uh
He'll, uh
he'll have to catch up
on all the classified cases
in the next few days.
Once he gets to Murphy's,
I'm sure it will be dead
since she hasn't held up
her end of the deal
and she'll go right back to trial.
- So, I called that I.D. lady.
- Mm-hmm.
She said she could hook us up
later today with new passports.
Okay. Great.
Uh, just don't forget to
print Pretzel's thing, okay?
- Yeah.
- Thank you.
Hello?
You still planning on running?
Yeah, why?
You better hurry.
Once the new chief reviews your case,
you're going back to trial.
There's got to be
something that you missed.
See, I really don't think there is.
See, that's what makes me mad.
My gut tells me
that there's got to be evidence
in that cabin she was holed up in.
Well, why don't you guys go there?
We did.
Believe me, we didn't find anything.
Well, you never had me there.
No, we just had
an entire search crew, detection dogs.
But you didn't have me.
Yeah.
The thing is, even if we,
even if we did go,
we'd have to figure out a way
to get in and not get caught.
Well, shouldn't be too hard.
Well, why?
Well, Felix and Lesley
left with their suitcases.
Okay. How do you know that?
Uh, well, I sort of hacked
into her door cam footage.
Oh.
But it was to find
any information I could.
Yeah, of course. S-So
you just sort of hacked it?
No, completely.
I completely hacked
into her door cam footage.
And the app enables me
to unlock the door.
So please don't judge me.
Wow.
Okay, so,
even if we did find something there,
we would still need,
like, a warrant, right?
We already had one.
So if we do happen to find anything,
we just futz around
with the timeline a wee bit.
Okay.
Oh, I need to take this. Sorry. Okay.
Hey, man, what's up?
Simmons demoted me.
What?
- You're joking.
- Yeah.
I don't really want
to talk about it, but
look, for what it's worth,
I gave the new chief
the recommendation to keep you on.
Well, I mean, thanks, mate,
but are you okay?
Uh, it's whatever.
I'm on traffic duty.
Damn.
Okay, well, listen, call me later
or we can get a pint or something.
Yeah, will do.
Okay, so we're supposed to grab
our passports in 20 minutes.
Then we head to the border.
Which border? Hot or cold?
Um, uh, hot?
Mexico it is.
I am honestly happy
to never see Chicago again
for the rest of my life.
Uh
You know what, can we can we,
can we actually make a stop?
A stop? I-I don't think
we have much time.
Please. It's-it's really important.
What, your parents?
No.
There's someone to see you.
Hi.
Hi.
What do you want?
Um
Well
I just
You said you needed me,
and I'm sorry, I haven't
been there, but
I have to go.
For a long time.
Right.
Because you killed someone.
Uh, no, I
Love that you're still lying to me.
I'm not lying.
Whatever.
Now that you're here,
could you do me a favor?
Could you get me
some more of those pills that I took?
My friends won't do it.
What?
That landed you in the hospital.
So? It was worth it.
No, it wasn't.
Yeah, it was.
To just not care
about anything that happened?
I-I get it. I get
how good it feels to not feel anything,
to numb everything,
but that doesn't end well.
Okay? Look what happened to me.
Really?
You can't do this anymore.
You could die.
Don't you get it? I don't care.
You don't mean that.
I do.
I actually do.
Don't say that, please.
If you're just gonna lecture me,
I have my dumb uncle for that.
You can go.
Text from Amber.
On my way home from school now,
can I bring you anything?
Please leave me alone, Murphy.
Please.
Just leave me alone.
We can't go.
What?
That drug really messed her up.
It ruined her. She's willing
to throw her life away.
I can't let Trey get away with that.
I thought I I thought we
I thought we could just run away
and then I would not
think about it, but I
I can't.
She's messed up.
If you don't want him
to get away with it,
then he won't.
Okay?
Serious?
Yeah.
I love you so much.
- I love you too, Murph.
- Thank you.
I'm gonna call Gene, okay?
There's a step there.
You look like you're having fun.
Yeah, just pulled over
an 82-year-old woman
trying to make it to her
grandson's soccer game.
Really fighting
the good fight, you know?
What's up?
Um It was Trey.
- Who was Trey?
- In the club.
It was Trey, and we let him get away.
- You what?
- It wasn't my idea.
No, wait a minute, I don't
I don't want to hear that.
Do you understand, I lost my job today?
- We can still get him.
- No, we can't!
Okay, I know I recognize
you can't see me right now,
but I am far from anything
that resembles power.
Who cares, you're still a cop right?
I-I obviously made a mistake.
But Trey is the one
that's killing people.
Killing kids.
Okay? So, yes, he-he got away for now,
but now we at least
know who's running this thing.
Don't let him get away
because you're mad at me.
You're better than that.
Come on, Gene.
I'm on thin ice right now with my boss.
I got to make my stupid ticket quota,
but I'm-a call you when I'm done.
Thank you. Thank you.
I'm not doing this for you.
Uh, anyway, y-you can't tell Darnell.
I know.
Hey.
Hey.
You okay?
I don't know.
Yeah, I get it.
We got into this
because we actually wanted
to make things better.
And it turns out
that it's just red tape and corruption
at the top.
And for what?
Maybe I'm done.
Done?
No. No, you can't quit.
Come on, Sarah.
I just can't believe
I did this to Darnell.
So, you're thinking about quitting?
I don't I don't understand.
There's only so much that he can take.
Sarah
No, look, I am not the kind
of person that throws away
her whole career for some dude, but
We're not even doing any good anymore.
So what's the point?
So let me get this straight.
You're thinking about walking
away from your job for Darnell?
My job almost got Darnell killed.
- I know, but
- I am the reason for that.
- No, you aren't.
- I am.
I put him in a really,
really dangerous situation
because I thought
it could help our investigation.
If that's the kind of person
that this job turns someone into,
I don't want it.
I care about this person.
A lot.
Don't throw your career away for him.
It was Trey in the club.
Darnell let him go.
What's going on?
You tell me.
I really wouldn't know.
It was Trey.
Sarah
Don't even. Don't even.
You made a total fool out of me.
God, I really trusted you.
I thought that
We Clearly, we're not.
I can explain.
Oh, you can explain?
Why don't you explain it
to all the parents
who will never see their kids again,
thanks to your buddy.
I feel sick for them, I do.
But I am telling you,
this is not Trey's fault.
- Oh, my God.
- You're a cop.
You see things as either good or bad,
but it's not like that.
God, I'm such an idiot.
I thought you'd turned a corner.
I have.
This is a joke.
You claim that you want to help
all these street kids.
It's not about that.
You actually want to clear your guilt
because you think
Tyson's dead because of you.
Go to therapy or something
and leave me out of it.
Just get out of my house.
Are you sure this worked?
She won't see us on the door cam?
- See? We're nowhere to be found.
- How did you do that?
I don't reveal my secrets.
Okay, so what are we looking for?
Drugs, guns.
Anything to incriminate Murphy.
Okay. Yeah.
All right. Here we are.
Uh, carpet's kind of
torn, so be careful.
Cool place.
Yeah, my brother owns it.
He's redoing it right now,
so he said we can hide out here.
Watch your step here.
God, it smells so bad in here.
Ooh. Sorry.
Okay, so
What you, what you thinking?
About? What are we What?
What are we thinking?
How you plan to take Trey down.
We know who it is now, so go arrest him.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay, see, unfortunately,
that requires evidence.
Something we would have had, had we, uh,
caught him in the act
of holding you hostage.
Okay, I Please, can we move on?
- Okay.
- I apologized, Gene. I'm sorry.
I sort of lost my dream job
because of it,
so, uh, forgive me if I don't
give you a hug just yet.
- What do you want me to say?
- Guys, stop.
If Murphy doesn't hold up
her end of the deal,
the chief will revoke it.
So we have to figure
this out in a hurry.
Trey gave me 50 grand.
What?
He gave me hush money.
Can we check that for
fingerprints or something?
Trey touching $50,000
isn't illegal, Murphy.
Well, clearly product
or money from selling product
is gonna pass through
the club at some point,
so maybe put a surveillance team on it.
Oh!
Thank you for that tip.
I know how to do my job, Max.
Mm. Look around, man. I'm at the bottom.
I can't put any teams on anything.
But for the time being,
I can still make arrests.
So if we catch Trey
in the act, I can charge him.
We just don't have a ton of protection,
and we're going after
a pretty big beast here.
So if we're gonna take a shot,
we can't miss.
Hey! Josh.
I found something.
Get down here.
There's, like, a-a bag
that looks like drugs, I think.
It was shoved behind the shelf.
Here, let me see. Let me see.
This looks like drugs, right?
Yeah, hold on.
Holy Whoa.
Okay.
Oh, my God.
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to get you excited.
Oh, my gosh!
Josh, what are you doing?
Josh?
What's wrong?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Okay, thank you, Dr. Meyers.
What did he say?
Uh
Uh, he said it was
stress-induced blindness.
I-I knew it was a thing, I just
it never happened before.
- So, stress.
- Yeah, makes it worse.
It's back a bit now,
but the doctor says I need
to find some coping mechanisms.
Otherwise my condition will
degrade at a more rapid rate.
What?
Murphy has taken so much from me.
My job.
My my sense of purpose.
You know, my sanity.
And now
I'm gonna let her take
what little sight I have left.
I mean
I think I I have to stop all this.
Yeah, probably.
You know, all I wanted this
whole time is just the truth.
The truth.
You know, I needed
to hear her say what she did.
And I know that sounds stupid,
but I just, I
I needed it.
And I thought maybe if we could,
if we could get enough evidence
or-or something
she'd have to admit to killing Nia.
You know, admit that she used me.
Well, I guess I have
to get used to the fact that
I'm not gonna get that.
The truth.
But you know the truth.
Whether or not she admits it,
you know it.
Just roll it, all right?
- Where?
- Right Okay, just do a squat roll.
Okay. Both hands, both hands. Let's go.
Start on the floor? MAX: And
Yeah, on the floor.
And go.
Slippery.
Did I win?
- Why? Why are you laughing?
- Yeah, you won.
I won? Yeah.
Oh, hey. Mm-mm.
I didn't sign on
to watch you two make out.
Okay, okay, sorry. Where were we?
Oh. S-Someone's at the door.
Oh. Sarah.
- What?
- What is she doing here?
Um, I told her where we are.
What happened to "no one can know"?
It's fine. I know we can trust her.
Door's open!
We may have a problem.
I confronted Darnell,
and it didn't go well.
I don't know what he's gonna do next.
Oh, my God.
You're back.
I want in.
You playing?
You know I'm not.
Okay.
You know
I don't know how smart it is
to be operating out of here,
considering the cops
just raided this place.
They can raid it as much as they want.
We're clean here. I'm not stupid.
So, about you being
my eyes on the inside.
Here's what I need from you.
I don't think I can make that happen.
Sarah and I just broke up.
But I know they don't
have anything on you.
I want to help you run this place.
Cool.
I could use the help.
I don't know if you could tell, but
business is going really well.
Yeah, clearly. Clearly.
How the hell did all this happen, man?
Who's, who's running this?
I'm running it.
But there's this rich
white real estate guy,
he's funding the entire operation.
Word?
With money like his,
we can get things
off the ground pretty quickly.
So what's his cut?
20%.
But we make 48 bucks on every pill.
So, wait, I sold Bolt.
It's 50 bucks.
You're saying it costs
two dollars to make?
Fentanyl's cheap.
Fentanyl.
Yeah. It's, uh
economical.
Yeah, but I mean
You know, kids are taking
this thing, too, dude.
So?
It's just business.
Anyway, do you think you could
get me some of Nia's guys?
I'm running way more product
than I've got the manpower for.
I got you. I got you.
Let me just call some people up.
I'll hit you up later.
All right.
Don't bills have, like, serial numbers?
- Can we use that?
- To do what?
To-to trace them back
to wherever they came from,
or something?
It's not like a GPS.
And I'm not like a cop.
But why why am I the only
one coming up with anything?
- The only one?
- Do you have anything to offer?
Absolutely not.
- What did you do, track me here?
- Sarah
- I'm serious. Leave.
- Listen to me. Please,
- just hear me out.
- She said leave, man.
Please, just hear me out.
Trey thinks I'm in with him, okay?
You wanted your eyes on the inside?
I'm deep on the inside.
I don't care.
Sarah, I swear to you.
I'm with you guys.
All right?
You were right.
About everything.
Trey's cutting his pills with fentanyl.
He knows he's killing kids.
Murphy told us it was your idea
to let him walk this morning.
I know, and I was wrong.
I got caught up in my emotions.
Something I think everyone here
has done at least once or twice.
Look, I already found out
more about Bolt
in one meeting with Trey
than the entire time
we've been working on this.
He's got some investor,
some rich real estate guy
who's funding it all.
If we can figure out who that is,
we can cut the entire thing
off at the source.
How do we know you're not lying?
I know you have no reason
to trust me. I get that.
But I swear to you.
I swear on Tyson's grave, Murphy.
I am with you.
I'm with you.
He's telling the truth.
We literally have nothing else, so
Fine, we'll work with you.
But you know taking
down the Bolt operation
means taking Trey down with it, right?
I know.
I'm-I'm sorry. Um
Are any of us capable
of tracking the finances
of every real estate mogul in Chicago
to see if they're laundering money?
I might know someone who can do that.
No.
No, we-we can't.
- Sorry.
- You want to go back to prison?
Okay.
I'll, uh, I'll call him.
Hey, mate.
Hey, you busy?
Still want to grab that pint?
Yeah. Yeah, I can do that. Where?
I'm telling you,
he's not got gonna help us
if he knows you gave me a deal.
He probably will. He's a
creep who's obsessed with you.
Well, I don't want
to lie to him anymore,
and he's not gonna believe
you're just helping us.
He will if I tell him it's about Chloe.
He knows how much I care about her.
I should have just been honest
with him from the start.
Okay, you girl.
Look, we just need to tell this dude
whatever he wants to hear.
What he wants to hear is that I'm gonna
rot in prison for the rest of my life.
We all know he's not gonna
accept anything other than that.
- He's crazy.
- He's here.
- Hey, man.
- Hey, man.
You all right?
Hey. Thanks for meeting me, man.
I've had a brutal day.
- I know you have too, sorry.
- Oh Yeah, no, it's cool.
Uh, but I have to say, I'm not
much of a bowler these days.
Hey, Josh, listen.
What the hell is going on?
I knew if I told you I was
with Murphy, you wouldn't come.
Yeah, you're absolutely right.
What's she doing here?
She's helping me
with the investigation, okay?
- Just give me a second to explain.
- Helping?
- You-you gave her a deal?
- No.
- That's why she got a mistrial.
- No.
- Okay.
- So you're doing this
out of the kindness of own heart?
Yes, I am!
- Sure.
- She is.
- Josh, Chloe was in the hospital
- You're lying!
I'm not listening
- to a word you say.
- Josh.
And you, I can't
believe you did this to me, mate.
Josh.
Josh, stop.
Josh?
Josh?
You all right?
Let me help you.
All right, we're gonna turn left here.
There's a wall to your
right. There you go.
It's m-my eyesight.
It'll come back in a minute.
This happened earlier today?
Yeah.
You
You really, you really didn't
give her a deal?
No. No, man, I w I wouldn't do that.
So she really is doing
all of this just for Chloe?
Yeah.
Wow.
Well, I'm sorry, man.
I'm sorry, man, I didn't believe you.
Of course you wouldn't
do something like that.
- I just I, uh, I'm sorry.
- Mm-mm. Mm
It's okay. It's okay.
I do want to help you, though.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
But I'm gonna need something
from Murphy first.
There's a chair right in front of you.
There you go.
I'll give you guys some privacy.
What can I do for you, Josh?
Admit that you killed Nia Bailey.
That's what you want?
Yes.
Are you really this petty?
- Come on.
- Petty?
You think that this is petty?
Listen, listen, I just,
- I need the truth.
- You want the truth?
The truth is,
I didn't kill her.
I've never killed anyone.
But w-why are you still lying to me?
I'm not lying, Josh.
I'm not lying. I-I don't
Listen, I spent my entire
career trying to catch Nia.
- My entire career trying to catch Nia.
- Yeah. Mm-hmm.
And-and-and
you just, you used me.
Hmm.
Well, I didn't use you.
I actually liked you.
- Sure.
- I did.
You were like this
this sliver of-of good and
Um, I mean, I
I fell for you.
Then you turned into a complete psycho.
You're the reason I'm
this complete psycho.
I think it was kind of brewing.
See, I really liked you, too.
I mean, I-I really liked you,
and-and that's why all of this,
all of this, that's why
it was so hard on me.
Yeah. Okay.
I hear you.
Um
I guess, for what it's worth, uh
I'm really sorry.
What are you doing?
Wow. I
I think about you so much.
The way you smell.
The way you The way you taste.
Josh, come on.
What? It's okay.
It's okay, look this is
Hey, come on.
Get off me, you freak.
