Twilight Ride (2023)

[bunniefuu]

(reel spinning)

(wind blowing)

(gravel crunching)

(g*n shot fires)

(soft music)

I wrote you a letter

Explaining the ocean of you

How it parted into the

waters of the unknown

The open blue

Well, I was anchored,

I was hidden down

I was swaying, but I was

sound about the truth

And you were floating on the dancing

Shattered impression of the moon

Oh, describe to me that

feeling of breathing in

And seeing the only

place you've ever loved

I know 'cause I've been sinking

Into the depths of you from being

The only thing I can think of

I

I

(light music)

(patron speaking unintelligibly)

What's your poison?

Ginger ale.

Sure.

(light music)

You're a Lacey, right?

Chris's brother?

Yeah.

You guys friends?

I know who he is.

Everybody knows everybody

around here, right?

Wouldn't happen to know

where he is, would you?

No,

sorry.

So if you were me,

where would you start?

(door creaking)

Derek? It's been a f*cking minute, man.

How you been?

- Doing all right.

- Yeah.

You probably know why I'm here.

sh*t, yeah, man.

I heard.

Chris ran away from home

like a lost puppy, huh?

Yeah.

Can't imagine why though.

You heard anything?

Nah.

He seemed good the last time I saw him.

When was that?

What are you, a detective now?

Nah man, I'm just trying to find him.

Talked to him a couple

weeks ago and he was fine.

I don't know what to think.

Maybe he took off like you did.

I told Chris I was leaving,

and that was different.

You didn't tell anyone else though.

You left a lot of

disappointing folk behind, man.

I think most people around

here were glad to be rid of me.

One less Lacey, right?

Nah man, nah.

I don't know about all that.

Well I gotta bounce.

Need anything?

No, thanks man, I'm good.

Well if you do,

you know where to reach me

and I'll hook you up for old time sake.

[Derek] Thanks.

(light music)

(knocking on door)

- Howdy.

- Oh sh*t.

Oh sh*t man.

I didn't mean to hit him that hard.

Guess I don't know my own strength.

Must have been all those

years playing T-Ball as a kid.

T-ball is for pussies.

Hey, what's your problem with T-ball?

Did you really think

I wouldn't have someone waiting

at the back door for you?

You really are as stupid as they say.

[Criminal] f*ck you pig.

You're making my d*ck hard.

Get up!

Get up!

(uneasy music)

(gate creaking)

(uneasy music continues)

Got in last night and couldn't

even come see your mother.

[Derek] How'd you know I was here?

A little bird flew through

the window and told me.

Is that how you found

out Chris was gone?

A little bird?

No, a friend of mine knocked

on the door and told me.

[Derek] Surprised you

were able to answer it.

What are you doing here?

I'm worried about him.

Chris never just takes off like this.

I take it you don't

know where he is either?

Nope.

That boy's all kinds of f*cked up

because of you.

His big brother left him all alone.

Right.

Everything's always my fault.

So what else is new?

Power ain't working.

Probably need to pay the bill.

That'd be my guess.

You always were a smartass.

You want a line?

[Derek] No.

You sure?

I won't charge ya for it.

How kind of you.

No.

Suit yourself.

I've got some things to take care of.

If you hear anything about

Chris, could you let me know?

Sure.

I'll send a pigeon.

(uneasy music continues)

Afternoon, beautiful.

Good afternoon.

You and Gordo take down another one.

Yep.

They're like dandelions.

Rip one out, got two more

popping up the next week.

What did this one do?

Little b*stard swiped a pile of booze

from Frank's Liquor store last week.

Oh, that was him?

Serves him right.

Oh, and I had some paperwork.

- Excuse me.

I was wondering who I could talk to about

reporting a missing person.

I'll take care of it.

Just follow me.

So I presume you're here to

report your brother missing.

Yeah.

How'd you figure that?

Well, you've been gone

for quite some time,

coming back into town to

report a missing person,

I assume it's a family member.

And your mother with her

chemical habits isn't too mobile.

Makes sense.

So you haven't heard anything,

any idea where he could be?

I was gonna ask you the same thing.

I mean it's no secret in town

that Chris likes to get high.

Maybe he finished his oxy off

and went out to get some more.

Well that definitely didn't happen.

Definitely.

Why not?

Because I know three

or four people in town

who he could have got it from.

I've only been here a day

and I've already been

offered discount drugs.

Interesting.

Care to mention any names?

It's not the reason I'm here.

Listen,

let's get you to fill out that form.

We'll get your brother in the system

and if you have any questions or concerns

you can just let me know.

Sure, thanks.

(soft music)

Kate?

What's for dinner?

[Kate] I'm making casserole.

Be ready in about half an hour.

Ah, casserole.

Hey.

How was your day?

[Marshall Lloyd] Like any other.

You taste like orange juice

and yet I don't see a glass anywhere.

Well detective it maybe

is in the dishwasher.

I bet it is.

Remember Derek Lacey?

Showed up at the police station today.

Really?

In cuffs?

No, he's,

seemed to have cleaned himself up a bit.

He was asking about his brother.

[Kate] What about him?

Apparently he's missing.

Is that really unusual

for a Lacey though?

No.

It's only unusual for

a clean and sober Lacey

to show up at a police

station speaking coherently.

So what did you tell him?

We'd fill out the

missing person's report.

I'd let him know if I heard anything.

There's only so much I can say.

Not gonna tell him

his brother's probably

in a ditch somewhere.

(light music)

(phone vibrating)

Hello?

[Marshall] Derek, it's Marshall.

Whereabouts are you right now?

Who is this?

[Marshall] It's Detective Lloyd.

We spoke yesterday at the station.

Right.

What's going on?

[Marshall] Got some news

in regards to your brother.

(light music continues)

What happened to him?

We found his body on a farm

about an hour outside of town.

And the initial conclusion is suicide.

Suicide, how?

It was a g*nsh*t wound to the head.

We also found some needles

and some small bags of heroin on him.

And those, those might have

been contributing factors.

That doesn't make any f*cking sense.

Chris never touched heroin.

Derek, it's possible

you didn't know Chris

as well as you thought you did.

Maybe you didn't f*cking know him.

He's my brother.

I know he wasn't sh**ting up heroin.

I'm just telling you the facts I have.

I'm sorry, Derek, I really am.

(quiet music)

[Derek] Nice place.

Yeah, it's a little rough, but

police don't f*ck around with it.

So I do most of my business from here.

Is there something you needed

or you just need to take a load off?

I just need to know a few

more things about Chris.

[Sully] I wish I could help you,

but I told you everything I know.

Humour me.

I know you hung out with

him sometimes, right?

Yeah, from time to time.

[Derek] Who else did he run with?

The usual,

the guys you already know.

Was he sh**ting up heroin

when you were with him?

- What?

- Was he f*cked up a lot?

What kinda sh*t was he into?

I don't know.

What the f*ck do you

think I am, his diary?

I don't know what he was doing.

We got high from time to time,

but nothing heavy like that.

Never bought heroin off you or coke?

[Sully] No.

Never?

Never.

You're not lying to me, are you?

Yo, I've known you all my life.

Why would I lie to you about this sh*t?

Chris was my friend and if I

knew some sh*t, I'd tell you.

Well, apart from you,

I don't know where anyone

would get heroin in this town.

Man, why keep going on

about this heroin dog?

They found his body with

needles and some heroin on him.

But I've never known Chris to sh**t up.

I'm pretty much the

only game in town, man.

If someone else was selling, I'd know.

At least I hope I would.

(phone vibrating)

Gotta take this.

Business.

(phone vibrating)

Sully?

Hey Sully.

(uneasy music)

(tense music)

(g*n shot fires)

(tense music continues)

(g*n shots firing)

(tense music continues)

(g*n shots firing)

(tense music continues)

(g*n shot fires)

(Derek breathing heavily)

(soft music)

[Waitress] Hey, Marshall.

Can I get you anything?

[Marshall] Just a coffee,

with a little bit of milk, thanks.

You still okay?

I'm good, thanks.

Hear anything about those two guys

we found at the crack

house on Mill Street?

No, what happened?

A little bit of a shootout.

Two dead bodies in the house.

Yeah, I've had a few things

go down there in the past, but

nothing that went quite this sour.

Look, if you need help,

you gotta talk to me.

I'll do what I can.

But if I find out you're involved in this,

two dead bodies,

you're the one I'm gonna be investigating.

Derek, you're gonna get

yourself arrested or k*lled.

Don't gotta worry about that.

Look, I don't wanna

get a phone call tonight

that another Lacey's dead because

he's chasing after his

brother's non-existent k*ller.

It was a suicide, Derek.

That's it.

Oh, you don't want to get that call?

[Marshall] No, I don't.

Then stop making me do your job for you.

Or keep your f*cking phone off.

(light music)

[Waitress] There you go, Marshall.

Guess I'm buying his.

(light music continues)

f*ck.

(uneasy music)

(rap music)

Everything happened, you heard

Then it get back to the groove

Watching

(artist singing indistinctly)

Basement

You can afford my arrangement

(artist singing indistinctly)

Word on the beat

(artist singing indistinctly)

Had to get back to the basics

(artist singing indistinctly)

Nothing to do, scare

Seen it before, I know that

(artist singing indistinctly)

What you been trying to prove

Holding your wink and a clue

(artist singing indistinctly)

[Derek] Ginger ale?

Sure.

(rap music continues)

Ready to go, ready to go

Ready to go, ready to blow

Ready to go, ready to blow

Ready to go, ready to blow

Ready to go, ready to blow

Ready to go

You come here a lot?

It's 50 for a half hour

and if you blow in 10

minutes, you get no change.

How about I ask you a

couple of questions instead

and if you give me some good information,

I'll pay you the 50?

And don't worry, I won't ask for change.

What do you wanna know?

I'm trying to figure out

what happened to Chris Lacey.

Did you know him?

Chris Lacey?

Yeah.

That f*gg*t k*lled himself at some farm

up near Sherman's Creek.

Why don't you give me that 50 bucks?

That f*gg*t?

Did you and him have some issues?

He was a p*ssy, man.

Who gives a sh*t about

Chris Lacey anyways?

Get him outta here!

Ready to go, ready to blow

Ready to go, ready to go

Ready to go

(Derek groaning)

(soft music)

So what's going on with

those two dead hoodlums?

Any leads yet?

We're working on it.

I know you're working on

it, but what's the latest?

Have you found Sully Barnes yet?

Dad, you're retired.

You don't have to keep trying

to solve my cases for me.

Yes, I'm retired,

but that doesn't mean I

can't still be useful.

I'm fine, thanks.

Let's just leave work at work,

shall we?

[Robert Lloyd] I'm not trying

to undermine anyone here.

(phone vibrating)

Who's that?

Just Gordo.

So much for leaving work at work.

About the case?

Maybe.

He just said it's important

and he wants me to meet him.

Is it okay if I just step

out for a little bit?

You're gonna go anyway, right?

[Marshall] It could be important.

All right.

Thanks babe.

(soft music)

It took you long enough.

I was in the middle of

dinner with my family.

And your daughter's not your family?

My real family.

Okay, so you're still an as*h*le, I see.

What do you want?

Kate thinks I'm out with

Gordo right now, so?

How do you plan on keeping this a secret

from her for the rest of your life?

It, it's a small town, Marshall

and people are gonna

start talking eventually.

No they won't.

What's there to talk about?

There's no evidence that Zoe's my kid.

You coming here,

bringing me money,

sneaking in my backyard.

Resemblance maybe?

It might be easy for you

to keep her distance when she's a baby.

But I mean, what are you

gonna do when she's grown up

and she lives five minutes down the road?

I'll live.

- Okay.

- As usual,

you're gonna find some other as*h*le

and he can be her dad.

f*ck you.

That's bullshit.

That's bullshit.

You may be an as*h*le

but I know you have a heart

and you wouldn't be able to stomach

passing your daughter in the street

knowing she knows you

as some d*uche bag cop.

Look, I didn't ask for this, okay?

You wanted to have the kid.

This mess is on you.

I give you money so you

can keep your mouth shut.

You can do whatever the

f*ck you want with it.

Why don't you help

me keep my mouth shut?

What do you want?

A couple hundred should do.

I've got 50 bucks on me.

[Eva] No, a couple hundred should do.

Don't be f*cking ridiculous.

Oh, ridiculous?

Oh no, okay.

I can be ridiculous.

What does that mean?

I'll just, you know, ask

Kate for the money, so.

Yeah, that's what you'll do.

And cut off your one source of income.

Yeah, it's called

child support, as*h*le.

Gimme the phone.

Gimme the,

gimme the f*cking phone!

I've got 50 bucks on me, okay?

I will get you more tomorrow.

(uneasy music)

Turn around.

Don't you f*cking dare.

I'm not here to k*ll you, m*therf*cker.

If I was, the back of your head

would be in that cupboard right now.

I swear, I don't know

what happened to Chris.

Don't feed me that sh*t.

How'd I find myself on the opposite end

of two trigger men the other night?

And you were conveniently

nowhere to be found.

I don't know those guys, man.

I'm telling you.

I'm not buying it!

Now to make sure you

don't do anything stupid

like last time,

toss your phone and your piece over here.

(footsteps)

[Sully] Hey.

What you doing daddy?

Nothing, we're just having a snack.

Can we have a snack too?

Sure.

Just make sure it's quick, okay?

Come on.

Is that necessary?

The last time I was with you,

you tried to have me k*lled.

You need to start talking.

- What do you want to know?

- Everything.

Who were those two guys?

[Sully] I don't know their names.

Work for the same guy I do.

And who's that?

I ain't no snitch.

You can tell me, Sully.

Vlad.

Vlad?

- Yeah.

- Last name?

I don't know, something f*cking Russian.

Everyone calls him Vlad.

And why would this Vlad guy want me dead

or were they there for you, Sully?

No, I'm pretty sure

he was there to off you.

Just don't know why.

Bullshit.

Man, I swear on my kid's life, man.

What, you've been away for four years.

I don't know how the f*ck he

would even know who you are.

Clearly someone told him.

Maybe he thinks you gonna start selling.

You gonna step on his territory

and sh*t, I don't know.

Did Chris work for him too?

No.

Chris sold pot, nothing major.

Then Vlad k*lled Chris?

[Sully] What, I didn't say that.

Yes you did.

If he sends two guys to k*ll me

'cause he thinks I could

potentially sell on his turf,

then he sure as sh*t k*lled Chris

for actually selling on his turf.

Yo, that's your logic, not mine.

How do I find this guy?

He runs a club in the city.

The Blue Room?

Yeah, try there.

I already did.

Why do you think I look like this?

Where does he live?

Does he have a phone number?

He does all his business from the club.

And he calls me from burners

to set up some meetings.

But I can't get a hold

of him unless he calls.

You know what to do

when he calls then, right?

[Sully] What?

Tell him I wanna meet.

He doesn't want to meet you.

He wants you dead.

Think those two guys you k*lled

are the only employees he got?

And who you got rolling with you?

Huh?

Man, that ain't enough.

This may be a small town,

but he ain't small time.

His father's some Russian mobster, man.

Well, I'll have to be careful then.

Getting yourself k*lled

ain't gonna do sh*t for Chris, man.

Might help his reputation.

Maybe people look at him different.

If they know what really happened.

Man, who cares what other people think?

You knew the real Chris.

That's all that matters.

Sometimes I don't think I did.

Marshall.

Derek.

Should you be drinking?

Should you be f*cking off?

I'm off duty.

I know who k*lled my brother.

[Marshall] Oh yeah?

Yeah, some Russian named Vlad.

And how did you come to

this conclusion, detective?

Because those two dead guys

you found the other night.

Apparently they thought

I was gonna be there.

They were sent there to k*ll

me on behalf of this Vlad guy.

I'm failing to see how this relates

to your brother's death.

Come on, put two and two together, man.

They k*lled Chris because he

was selling in their area.

Plain and simple.

You don't have to be a

master f*cking detective

to figure it out.

Just do some real police work.

f*ck off Derek.

What do you want me to do?

Arrest some guy based

on a theory of yours.

Where do you come up with this sh*t?

Sully told me.

And he just spilled the beans?

Everything he told you,

anything he wanted to know?

He had some incentive.

That's useful evidence,

testimony forced out of a

drug dealer at gunpoint.

- It's the truth.

- It's useless.

So you're not even gonna pursue it?

I'm giving you a gift right here.

Let me tell you about gifts, Lacey.

My father worked in this

department for 30 years.

He basically helped

every single f*cking person in this town.

And the year before his

retirement, his good friend Ray

from the autobody shop up on Yarmouth,

he decides to give my

dad a retirement gift.

This car my dad had his eye on.

And all of a sudden, all these people

used to be so thankful and appreciative

start calling this gift a f*cking bribe.

Soon enough, that's all

anyone can talk about.

All the way up to the chief.

And where does that land my dad?

Out of a job,

out of a pension.

And now he's just a

jobless, penniless old man.

So you'll have to forgive me if I,

if I don't accept your gift today, Derek.

So you're not gonna look into this?

Look into what?

You are, you are lucky that

I put up with you this long.

You know why no one's ever

given your brother's suicide

a second thought?

Huh?

'Cause we were all basically just

counting down the days

for a low life drug dealer

from a family of f*cking junkies...

A person's not their family.

Chris wasn't our f*cking parents.

Do you understand that?

Why don't you look at

yourself for a second?

Are you your father?

Police captain Robert Lloyd

puts away the bad guys

and pretends to be an upstanding citizen.

Must have been tough

growing up with a mother

who was constantly walking into doors.

Watch your f*cking mouth.

Is that who you are, Detective Lloyd?

Are you your father?

If you're not gonna look

into this, then I will.

[Vlad] Where the f*ck have you been?

I've been trying to get a

hold of you for two days now.

I'm sorry man.

Lacey was looking for me.

I had to lay low.

[Vlad] I don't give a f*ck

who was looking for you.

I was looking for you.

Who do you think is more dangerous?

Me or Lacey?

No, I'm sorry man.

I'm sorry.

But there's something I gotta tell you.

I told Lacey you sent

those two guys for him.

Yo, he was gonna k*ll

me in front of my kid.

I had to tell him.

[Vlad] What else

exactly did you tell him?

And hey, be honest with me.

(soft music)

[Marshall] Hey.

You're drunk.

(soft music continues)

I f*cked, I f*cked up.

(soft music continues)

Just

sh*t is so f*cking crazy at work.

And I,

it seems like a million

things are going on.

You know, I.

I f*cked up, okay?

Yeah, it's okay.

[Marshall] It's okay?

You get it, you know.

Yeah.

That's why I love you.

You know that, right?

You forgive me?

Maybe.

Maybe?

Yeah, maybe.

(soft music continues)

[Derek] Hey now.

Jesus Christ.

[Derek] This isn't where

you live, is it Marshall?

Did you follow me here?

[Derek] Does your wife

know what you do here?

- Get off my car.

- Or what?

You gonna arrest me?

Huh?

Cause a big scene so all the

neighbours come out and watch?

No.

You definitely don't want that.

What do you want?

I want you to do some

f*cking police work.

Find this Vlad guy and make him talk.

Because if you don't want to do that,

then I might just have to talk.

Okay, I'll look up this Vlad guy.

Alright?

That's all I ask.

Drive safe, Marshall.

(engine starting)

("Cello Suite No. 1 in G major,

BWV 1007 I Prelude" by Bach)

(g*n shots firing)

("Cello Suite No. 1 in G major,

BWV 1007 I Prelude" by Bach)

(child crying)

Do it.

Come on Vlad, let's just go.

She's seen our faces.

I'm sorry.

I'll wait in the car.

(child crying)

(g*n shot fires)

(child crying ceases)

(phone ringing)

Hello?

[Marshall] Hope you're

hiding someplace good.

What do you mean?

I mean I'm standing in

Sully's bedroom right now.

What happened?

He was shot multiple times

while lying in bed with his wife.

She's dead too.

What about the kid?

Also dead.

Listen, I'm gonna do some

digging on this Vlad guy.

I'll keep you informed.

I can't make any promises though.

Thank you.

(uneasy music)

f*ck.

We are looking for our friend.

Derek Lacey.

L-A-C-E-Y.

Could you tell us what

room he is in, please?

[Clerk] Lacey?

Oh yeah, Derek Lacey.

Room 112.

Just in the back over here.

Much appreciated.

[Person On TV] I hope

this doesn't become

a regular thing, all right?

(phone ringing)

Hello?

[Clerk] Mr. Lacey.

There are two men here looking for you.

Is one of them a cop?

[Clerk] I don't think so.

They were acting a little weird,

so I sent them to the wrong room.

Thank you.

(phone dialling)

(phone trilling)

Marshall, you need to get the f*ck down

to the Casablanca right now.

There's two guys looking for me.

[Marshall] Okay?

Yeah, just, just sit tight.

We're like five minutes from there.

We'll be there soon, okay?

(uneasy music)

(phone ringing)

(tense music)

(sirens wailing)

Drop the f*cking g*n!

Show me your hands.

- Drop the g*ns.

- Hands!

Show me your f*cking hands.

Turn around.

Turn around.

Hands behind your backs.

You here working for Vladimir Golovin?

Who?

Oh, you don't know who that is?

No, I only work for me.

And what do you pay yourself

in Twinkies and hand jobs?

Funny.

Derek, it's Marshall.

Coming in.

You look comfortable.

Another 30 seconds,

you would've had another

body to deal with.

Two, if I got really lucky.

You did get really lucky.

No bodies and now we

have someone to question

about your brother's death.

Not that they're gonna

give us anything, but.

Stick a g*n in his face.

That usually works.

Well, not when you're a cop.

They tend not to think

you're gonna sh**t them.

Did get some information

about our friend Vlad.

Oh yeah?

His last name and address.

Went by there earlier today.

Wasn't home.

So poked around, peeked in a few windows.

Not not sure anyone actually lives there.

Also went by the club,

he didn't show up either.

Where does he live?

Why, so you can show

up with your shotgun?

Yeah, I'll handle it, Derek.

So where do we go from here?

Where do we go?

I'm gonna continue my

investigation into Vlad.

I'm gonna find you a new place to hide.

You're not safe here anymore.

Do you mind if I ask you something?

[Marshall] Sure.

Why are you so eager to help me now?

Basically had to blackmail

you before to get you to help.

Now you're all about finding Vlad.

What changed?

Yesterday morning, I

saw a six-year-old girl

dead on her own bedroom floor,

still clutching a bloody teddy bear.

It made me think, you know, if I,

if I had my own daughter,

someone did something like that to her,

I'd do anything to get her justice.

Just like you're trying to

get justice for your brother.

Oh, hi there.

You are so precious.

How old is she?

She's just over two months.

She's so cute.

What's her name?

- Zoe.

That's a really pretty name.

I've been trying to get my husband

on the baby train for a while now.

He doesn't really seem interested.

Too busy, I guess.

Can be hard work.

Understandable.

I think if he saw Zoe here

though, he'd come around.

Travis.

Travis Anastos.

Anastos.

Anast,

Anastos.

That's, that's Greek, right?

Yeah.

Have you ever used one

of those escort services?

No.

Just between you and me, there's,

there's no one behind

the glass or anything.

I mean, come on, you're

not a very attractive guy.

You must have paid for companionship

at least once or twice.

No, I haven't.

Well, it's interesting,

these escort services

on their websites,

they let you know

what the different girls

will do, what they look like.

But they, they use this code

like DFK.

You know what that means?

[Travis] No.

Deep French kissing.

That sounds pretty nice, eh?

I bet you haven't had

some of that in a while.

What else, what else?

CMD.

Any guesses?

No.

Carpet matches drapes.

You know, hair colour.

- Hmm.

I don't know why anyone would

care about that, but that's,

that's just what it means, Travis.

But my personal favourite is

if they're willing to do Greek.

You must have some guesses on that, right?

Yeah, I got a couple guesses.

It means they'll let

you f*ck em in the a*s.

I gotta ask you as a, as a Greek man,

is that painful?

I mean, I can't imagine

putting anything in my as*h*le,

let alone some other guy's fat d*ck.

f*ck you.

[Marshall] Come on,

Travis, we're both men here.

Does it hurt?

I wouldn't know.

You will soon enough

when you're locked up

in county, won't you?

A few people there that'll

give you many lessons.

So how about this?

I'll come visit you in a few months

and we'll see if you have

any answers for me then.

I got a better idea.

Why don't you

get your partner

to shove his baton

right up your a*s.

Then you'll have all the answers you need.

I mean, come on.

What is this?

I have a point here.

The point is you can

avoid some unpleasantness

if you just, if you just talk,

answer a few questions.

What do you have on me

that you can keep me in jail?

What do we have?

Well, you're carrying

an unregistered firearm.

That's a criminal of fence.

Then there's plenty of

property damage to the motel.

Threatening the motel clerk.

- Of course.

And then there's all

the cocaine we found.

f*ck off.

There wasn't any cocaine on me.

No, but in your car

there's quite a bit actually.

And that's probably good

for what, 10, 15 years?

A long time.

I mean, there's only like

20 cops in this town.

It's not like they're

not gonna listen to me.

I mean, I could let you go

free right now if I wanted.

What do you want?

Vladimir Golovin.

What about him?

Where does he live?

He has an apartment

over on King Street.

Sixth floor.

Alright, that's something.

That's something.

[Person On TV] I

think the baby's coming.

[Person On TV] What?

I see the powers back on.

Yep.

[Person On TV] Are you kidding me?

Do you mind if I ask you something?

You are gonna ask

either way, aren't you?

Who do you buy from?

What do you care?

Just curious.

I know Sully stopped selling

to you a long time ago.

I was gonna get some coke from him, but

he got k*lled the other day.

Really?

Yeah.

Some guys came into

his place and shot him.

No, I know he's dead.

I mean, you really gonna buy some coke?

Ah, come here.

Can you just tell me please?

Get over here.

The prodigal son returns.

Don't make a big deal outta this.

Just tell me his name.

A little line first.

It's okay, you go for it.

Come on.

Do one with your ma then I'll tell you,

Please don't do this to me.

[Norma] One line.

(Derek snorting)

[Norma] Attaboy.

What's his name?

One more and then I'll...

f*ck you.

[Norma] I promise.

One more and that's it.

If you don't, I'm gonna

dump that whole f*cking bag

in the toilet.

[Norma] I promise.

(Derek snorting)

What's his info?

- It's on the fridge.

- f*ck.

His name and address are both there.

Kate.

Kate, it was a stupid mistake, okay?

It was an accident.

An accident?!

f*cking her multiple

times was an accident.

What the f*ck is wrong with you?

[Kate] Don't!

What the f*ck were you thinking!?

Do not f*cking talk to her.

You talk to me.

I'm owed an explanation.

What do you want me to say?

I'm,

I'm a f*cking idiot.

I f*cked up.

I'm a piece of sh*t.

You know that, right?

I did, I don't know.

I just don't know what I can say

that's gonna make you

feel any better right now.

Why did you do this?

Why did you do this?

Marshall,

I loved you.

I cared about you.

I was here at the end of it every day.

Even when you were off

doing your police work,

I was the one who was f*cking here.

So

I wanna know why.

I don't know, it just happened.

(Kate sobbing)

Kate.

- Don't f*cking touch me.

Don't.

(Kate sobbing)

Are you happy now?

What the f*ck is wrong with you?

You're pathetic.

Is this your idea of being a good mother?

Yeah?

Your life's so f*cked up,

you have to f*ck up everyone else's?

Listen, I don't want to,

look at me, look at me.

I don't want to hear from you

or see you anywhere near my f*cking house

or my family, my real family.

Get the f*ck outta my house.

(door slamming)

f*ck!

(solemn music)

(knocking on door)

Derek.

Jesus.

Derek.

Derek, wake up.

What's up?

What'd you do?

Nothing.

What'd you find out?

Nothing, forget it.

Wait, what'd you find out?

Found out you're a f*cking junkie.

So why don't you stay with your mom

and do what you do best.

I'm coming with you.

No, I've had enough sh*t

for one day, all right?

Please.

Don't leave me here.

Okay, come on.

[Derek] Where are we going?

[Marshall] I'm taking

you a friend's place.

[Derek] I've got a lead on Vlad.

We should go there instead.

You need to get some rest.

It can wait till tomorrow.

He could be gone tomorrow.

Could be gone today.

We'll wait.

Go get some sleep.

Take care of yourself.

Tomorrow's gonna be a big day.

[Person On TV] One of the things

that they mentioned in the book...

(chips crunching)

You know what would be nice?

If you get some of those in your mouth.

Last time cleaning lady

had to clean up chip crumbs

from all over the f*cking couch.

She's the cleaning lady, that's her job.

(chips crunching)

(TV playing in background)

(uneasy music)

- Vladmir Golovin?

- No.

Who the f*ck are you?

Detective Marshall Lloyd.

Why don't I take a step inside?

Got a warrant?

I got a warrant

full of f*ck you.

Why don't you show me around?

Got some ID I could see?

Ricky.

I am just gonna keep looking around, okay?

Officer, don't look around too much,

or we're gonna have to call the cops.

I am already here.

Just looking for your friend, Vlad.

Keep showing up to his houses.

He's never home.

That's unfortunate.

Next time you see him,

tell him Detective Lloyd

wouldn't mind having a word.

I have a few questions to ask him

about the m*rder of Christopher Lacey.

You wouldn't know anything

about that, would you?

No sir.

I didn't think so.

What's in that bag?

[Ricky] What bag?

The one you keep eyeballing back there?

That one?

Nothing, just school books and sh*t.

School books?

Well, well Ricky.

I love learning.

So would you mind if I took a look in,

flipped through some of them?

How about you take a seat on

the couch while I do that?

How about you take a seat on the couch

and sit on your f*cking hands?

Yeah, nice and slow.

Nice and slow.

That's a lot of homework, Ricky.

[Ricky] sh*t.

I'm gonna take this and

if Vlad wants it back,

he should gimme a call.

Detective Marshall Lloyd.

Okay, Ricky?

(uneasy music)

f*ck.

Hey,

what the hell are you doing?

Can't walk around the streets

carrying a f*cking shotgun.

This is how I get answers.

I was just inside, he's not there.

So where to next?

The way I figure it,

he's only got so many places to hide.

So how about you and me

go check out his house.

If he's not there,

we'll go to the club.

Just you and me?

I don't know if you realize this,

but nobody else knows I'm helping you out.

They know I'm looking for Vlad,

but only in connection

to Sully and his family.

As far as the department's concerned,

your brother k*lled himself.

That's it.

Why don't you go check out the house?

I gotta grab a couple things

from my mom's before we go.

What things?

You got your trusty shotgun here.

What else could you need?

Don't worry about it.

Wait a sec.

Take this.

Take it,

just in case anything

happens between now and then.

Thank you.

Try to hide that f*cking shotgun.

[Derek] Will do.

Where do you think you're going?

I've got things to do.

You score some blow?

[Derek] No.

Don't lie to me.

I'm not gonna take it all.

I just want a little bump.

I don't have any f*cking coke.

I went to your dealer's place

to try and find the guy who k*lled Chris.

And, and did you find him?

I think I know where he is.

You k*ll that son of a b*tch, Derek.

You show him what the Laceys are made of.

Get off of me.

Chris was nothing like you.

Neither am I.

(solemn music)

Derek, pick up.

(solemn music continues)

f*ck.

(solemn music continues)

[Derek] Police! Put your

hands where I can see 'em.

You're not the f*cking police.

[Derek] I've got a shotgun

pointed at your face.

So get on the f*cking ground.

(rap music)

No g*n?

- No, nothing.

All right, stay put.

I got a friend watching the front door

to make sure no one else comes in here.

You make a move while I'm not looking,

he'll sh**t you square in the face.

Got it?

- Got it.

White girl too

(artist singing indistinctly)

Where's Vlad?

Which one of us has a f*cking g*n?

- I'm not telling you sh*t.

- I'm not f*cking around here.

Call of duty

(artist singing indistinctly)

He upstairs.

Right, get on the ground.

(artist singing indistinctly)

Police will be here any minute

so don't you f*cking move.

RIP to Lottie J

And my brothers

(uneasy music)

Who is it?

It's Officer Marshall Lloyd.

Open up Vlad, it's over.

We know you k*lled Sully and Chris Lacey.

Bullshit.

Show me some ID.

[Derek] I'm gonna open the

door and toss my badge in

for you to look at, okay?

Okay.

(tense music)

I've been carrying this

around a week looking for you.

So you better f*cking

believe I'm ready to use it.

Now, you're gonna tell me everything.

There's nothing to tell.

That was my f*cking brother you k*lled.

Start talking.

- Please.

- Derek!

We've got him, okay.

Lower your weapon, let me take him in.

- Don't let him k*ll me.

- Shut up!

Don't talk to him.

You talk to me and only me.

Tell me what happened.

[Marshall] Put the g*n down.

If you take another step closer,

you're gonna be cleaning

his head off the floor.

Tell me what happened.

You're going to k*ll me either way.

I'm gonna k*ll you right f*cking now

if you don't answer me.

Derek enough.

Why'd you k*ll him?

Answer the f*cking question!

Because he wouldn't sell.

[Derek] What do you

mean he wouldn't sell?

Everybody knows Chris was dealing.

He wouldn't sell our sh*t.

Coke, heroin.

He wouldn't sell it.

That's f*cking it?

You think I run this whole thing?

I've got people I work for too.

And when Chris refused to work with us,

he was spiting in our faces.

My bosses told me to make

an example out of him.

So I did.

If I didn't,

I would be the one laying

dead in the f*cking field.

An example?

You made a f*cking example out of him?

Derek, come on.

Please.

I'm not a bad person.

I was protecting my own life.

Say it.

Say you k*lled him.

Say you f*cking k*lled him.

I k*lled him.

[Derek] Louder.

I k*lled him!

I didn't have f*cking choice.

Did you hear that, Marshall?

Loud and clear.

Now put down your g*n

and let me arrest him.

You k*lled the only family I had left.

Do you have family?

Do you have family?

Yes.

Yes.

(tense music)

Good.

(g*n shot fires)

(solemn music)

(soft music)
