[bunniefuu]

Previously on Neagley…

[Neagley] When did it start?

Me not wanting to be touched.

I actually discussed

the haphephobia thing with my dad today.

- And what'd he say?
- That he didn't remember when it started.

He was lying.

- [Calvin] What is it?
- [Neagley] It's some kind of powder

I got in the mail.

Tommy Crane sent me that envelope
to give me a message.

We're never gonna know what it was
until we get on site.

Keno, you have one easy job. Get in,

find out why Tommy Crane
would send me rye flour,

- then you come home.
- What's up?

I was wondering if you guys
maybe needed any help.

[tense music playing]

Keno. There's someone I want you to meet.

I know exactly who you are.

So I need to ask you one thing.

Why shouldn't I k*ll you right now?

She's sighted in.
She's got that cop with her again.

When you have the shot, take the shot.

[Cole] Would you like to find contentment
at Echo Canyon Farm?

Enlightenment is yours for the having.

Would you like to find contentment

Enlightenment is yours for the having
at Echo Canyon.

[Pierce] Lawrence Cole?

Do I know you?

Not yet, but this seems very interesting.

I'd love a bag of your delicious carrots.

And a moment of your time.

- [♪ The Band sings "Up On cr*pple Creek"]

So, how do you know who I am?

I know a lot about you.
More than you can imagine.

Associate professor of English at DePaul,

till you flamed out.

Tried your hand at folk singing,
that went nowhere.

And then an office equipment

leasing business in Santa Fe and a

so-called real estate firm in Tallahassee.

All failures.

Yeah, I've had many lives,

but, uh,

everything that's happened
has led me here.

A greasy spoon

in bumblefuck, Illinois?

Leading Echo Canyon Farm.

If you don't mind me asking,
who the f*ck are you?

Because a hundred dollars doesn't buy me

having to listen to your insults.

I'm actually impressed by you.

Yes, you've declared bankruptcy
three times,

but that's not a bad thing.

Means you're not scared of taking risks.

That you got the heart of an entrepreneur,
just not the brain.

Well, as long you're not insulting me.

Look, I got enough brains
for both of us, Lawrence.

I can get an influx of capital
to you and your farm.

You'll be able to upgrade to new cabins,

a pavilion, common rooms.

You can grow the best crops
for your customers

and you and all your friends.

My flock.

My mistake.

But you got, what…
a-a dozen followers drinking the Kool-Aid?

By the end of the year, you'll have 80.

You'll be turning people away.

Why are you so interested
in me and my farm?

Because you have steady access
to a resource I need,

and you got lucky.

Years ago, you bought

the perfect piece of real estate, and now

it is about to make you and me

very, very rich.

[uneasy music playing]

Money.

It corrupts.

Only in the best ways.

Get down!

sh*t.

What? What?

Saw something on that roof.

sh*t. f*ck.

What are you doing?

Show me that pretty face.

f*ck.

- It's our friend from the morgue.
- Neagley!

[intense music playing]

sh*t.

No, no, we can't jump down.
We'll be out in the open.

- Could be a trap.
- I'm going.

I'll cover you.

Davos!

Throw out your g*n and show me your hands.

He's gone.

How'd he get off the roof?

Scaffold. Shed blocked our view.

He's military.

Made a field dressing. He has training.

Unless his training was at Johns Hopkins,
he doesn't have a lot of time left.

Then we stay on him.

If we get to him first, he'll talk

Nothing. Because it's all over.

The "right now"…

[unsettling music playing]

Don't.

Please.

[click]

Never forget how you feel right now.

How happy you are to still be alive.

Remember that

when you're working the fields
for 12 hours straight

or when you're exhausted
from slinging pig sh*t.

Remember that you want to live

and that Echo Canyon is the right path

and that I am the portal to that path.

I didn't ask for this gift.

But I'm thankful for it.
I'm thankful I got this gift,

and so I use it.

I use it the same way MJ

had to use his gift to play basketball.

I use it the same way Dennis DeYoung
had to use his gift

to create the band Styx.

I have to use my gift

to save us all.

Welcome to my family.

Yeah, th-thanks for having me.

- Arms out.
- It's for your own good.

We have strict rules about

what is and isn't allowed at Echo Canyon.

That includes processed food.

You need to focus on putting
good energy into your body

and only engaging in healthy connections,

not digital ones.

Easy, bro.

- Excuse me?
- Yo, he made

a healthy connection with my nuts.

Mason is just being thorough.

We have many recovering addicts here,

and we have to ensure
there's no contraband anywhere.

So, that's prescription.
It's early onset arthritis

- in both my knees. Really. It…
- Strike one.

Let me explain to you how it works here.

We have acolytes…
people like me and Mason…

who have ascended
under Lawrence Cole's teachings.

We help him run the farm and the family.

Then there are neophytes. These are people

who are still learning,
but through sacrifice and hard work,

they may ascend one day as well.

And then

there's you, a probationer.

If we ask you to mend a fence
at 4:00 a.m.,

it is expected that you will do so
with a smile.

It's harsh,

but, Keno, in a month,

you will be thanking us for your new life.

But this is a commitment,
and it needs to be agreed to.

Yeah, okay.

Perfect.

At the end of the ten days,
there is a decision ceremony,

and then, hopefully,
you'll become a member of the family

and graduate to neophyte.

But none of that will happen if there's
any more rule-breaking. Do you understand?

- Absolutely. 100%.
- [Judith] Good.

So you agree then,

that if in future
you're caught with cigarettes,

that a fair punishment would be
that food is withheld

until you've eaten the entire pack?

[dark music playing]

- You're messing with me.
- I assure you I'm not.

We're doing something here.

We are ascending.
And we'll do it as a family,

so we have to be on the same page.

Is this an equitable punishment…
no food until every cigarette is consumed?

Yeah, okay, but I'm-I'm
not gonna smoke again,

- so it's not an issue.
- Good.

Echo Canyon's making you
a better person already.

[door opens]

f*ck, Neagley.

[indistinct police radio chatter]

- I-I will, sir, I will.
- Thank you.

- You better treat it right.
- Hey.

Finally. Why are we still here?

There's an alert out for Davos
and a heads-up at every area hospital.

So? We both know he can't go
to a hospital with a g*nsh*t wound.

My lieutenant's insisting you go down
to the district to give your statement.

- Are you kidding me?
- Come on.

Look, it's not my call.
It's not even my lieutenant's call.

What the hell is the deputy chief
doing at a crime scene

where no one even got k*lled?

I don't know, but he's pushing
for you to come in.

It's a statement, Neagley.
It'll take an hour, tops.

An hour? Davos could be a corpse by then.
We don't know

how much blood he's lost.

Look at the guy,
with his little hat and white shirt.

When was the last time you saw him
outside a rubber chicken banquet?

Deputy Chief Plemel gets what he wants.
No questions asked.

The question that should be asked
is why he's pulling me

off the fresh pursuit of a sh**ter to
give a statement that could be done later.

- It's hinky, doesn't track.
- It doesn't have to. He's the boss.

- What's the holdup?
- I'm not going anywhere.

I didn't commit a crime.

A witness at the salon across the street
saw you fire first.

At a man who was sighted on me.

Detective, did you see the man
on the roof point a weapon at her?

I saw he had a g*n when we got
onto the roof. He fired at us then.

[lieutenant] That's not what I asked.

Did he threaten Ms. Neagley
while you were both on the ground?

I didn't see him aim a weapon

- at her at that point, but he…
- [lieutenant] Thank you.

Get her a*s down to the station.

[tense music playing]

Look, post-sh**ting protocol

- includes taking…
- Don't.

- Not if you know what's good for you.
- What are you mad at me for?

Look, you were military. I got orders.

I was military. And in the 110th,
we had each other's backs.

You didn't have my back.

Well, I'm not here to have your back.

I'm here to work a case with you
'cause people have been k*lled

- and we can catch who did it.
- And to make your bones

and lose your nickname, and that's
not gonna happen if we let Davos get away.

And it's not gonna happen if I defy orders
and get kicked back down to patrol.

You can't believe this is just protocol.

Ah, what do you know about
what I believe, huh? You barely know me.

Aw, sh*t.

Know you well enough
to know you're gonna be pissed.

Yeah, about what?

- Neagley!
- [propulsive music playing]

Neagley!

Hey!

f*ck.

[AI female voice over intercom] What
do you see?

[Doyle] My father.

[whimpers]

He's coming out of the kitchen.

With a knife.

He thinks my mom's been cheating.

She's crying.

[whimpering]

[AI female voice] Can you
see it happening?

[Doyle] I see it.

I feel it.

[sniffling]

I smell the casserole burning.

[AI female voice] Why is it burning?

Because Mommy's on the ground.

[crying]

Fail. Fail.

Again.

[mug shatters]

The only thing you f*ck seem capable of

is failure.

We-we get a little closer each time.

[Doyle] I'm afraid.

Dad yells to look away.

Look at this guy.

Is he ready to get back
to the board meeting?

- No.
- No, no.

Can he get behind the wheel
and drive home to his wife and kids?

- Uh, no.
- No.

He's out of his f*cking mind.

We need people

to process the drug in 30 minutes.

Not an hour.

Not 45.

Not however long
it's gonna take Buzz Aldrin

to get back to Earth.

[Doyle continues quietly whimpering]

What number formulation is this?

Uh, 91.

Ninety-g*dd*mn-one.

[scoffs, chuckles]

Four years

I have been down in this hole
with you people,

and we still aren't hitting the mark.

The board of directors is this close
to pulling funding,

and then all of this…
the research, the money,

the thousand-odd days I've spent with

this wingnut and his g*dd*mn
flower power crew up top…

This is Pierce.

Find him first.

Hey.

You tried to have her shot

in the middle of Chicago

while she was with a cop.

You told me to take care of her.
Make up your mind.

She's looking into us.
She's roped in the police.

That's why I wanted her run off the road.

It has to look like an accident.

f*cking incompetent.

[ominous music playing]

Ask him if he can hear his mother crying.

[phone chimes, vibrates]

What?

Cops are here asking about you.

Not surprised.
I'm kind of on the run. Is York pissed?

Think he's covering for you.

When was the last time
you heard from her?

I don't know. Couple days ago.

She doesn't really have a set schedule,

- you know?
- Must be nice.

- [York] Mm.
- So, any idea where we can find her?

What's with the urgency? I mean,

it sounds like it was self-defense
and she was with one of your own.

- We just want to talk to her.
- Didn't answer my question.

I'm usually the one
who asks the questions.

[scoffs] Yeah, me too.

- I was on the job in New York, 25 years.
- [Murphy] Yeah, I know.

Until you got run out
for tipping your elbow, right?

[glasses clatter softly]

I'm ten years clean.

You want to see the chip?

Make sure to call us when she shows.

They're leaving.

Good. Now help me find Davos.

- There's that charm.
- I'll be nice later.

Right now we have a window to find him.

He's got a gusher of an arm wound
and not a lot of time to get sewn up.

Where does he go for treatment?

Pharmacy?

You didn't see the blood pool.
Self-care is not an option.

[urgent music playing]

Physician's office?
Hold the team at gunpoint,

force them to patch him up?

Maybe, but that's a big roll of the dice

that a GP has what he needs.

Barely spoken to the woman.
As you know, I'm not a fan.

All right, listen, these cops
who were here… they weren't good guys.

They were zombies.
They got nothing behind the eyes

and they got their sights set on Neagley.

when I wore a badge.

She has a problem.

You hear from her, you have her call me

right away.

If she calls, I'll let her know.

- Right away.
- Mm.

You hear all that?

- Yup.
- I'm not enamored

with having to lie to my boss…

you know, the guy
who's actually paying me.

My knowledge is payment.
That was the deal.

Bullshit. When this
Echo Canyon thing's done,

there's something
I want to talk to you about.

That will be the payment.

Help me find out what that farm
is hiding, I'm all yours.

- Has Keno checked in?
- I'm not expecting him for a few hours.

Check your phone.

[Hudson] Come on, let me in.
I know you're there.

I'm not gonna arrest you, all right?

You know what kind of an as*h*le
you made me look like?

The kind of as*h*le you were acting like?

I was doing my job.

How'd you know I was here?

I knew you'd want a g*n.
Figured a retired cop would have one.

Come on, leave the g*n. Let's go.

Unless you're willing to use
severe physical force bringing me in…

which I doubt because you know
I did nothing wrong… shut up and help me.

I don't see you reaching for your cuffs.

Yeah, well, you're putting me
in a bad spot.

No, your superiors are.

They're trying to keep me from Davos,
which isn't gonna happen

because you're gonna help me track down
whichever shady doc

is treating him, probably as we speak.

How the hell do I help with that?

There are people you know
who know the Chicago underworld

who could point us in the right direction.

My cousin? No. That's not happening.

Well, I'm gonna go talk to him.
You can come or not.

Well, he won't give you anything for free.

Then I'll owe him something.

[Mickey] What makes you think

I would know where to find a sawbones?

Uh, 'cause you're a professional scumbag.

[chuckles] Have a nice day.

Look. I don't care about your guys' beef,

and I'm sorry things got physical
the last time,

but we're here, hat in hand.

Maybe we can do something for you?

Oh, yeah. What you got for trade?

Well, I got "f*ck you."
Got an extra "f*ck you" in my pocket.

You know what,
I got a case of "f*ck you" in the car.

Ah, it's a shame. Think I could've helped.

Gimme two.

Come on, we'll find the doc another way.

You use any of these guys?

[chortles] Well, not two of 'em.

- Why not?
- Because they're dead.

Heart attack. Covid.

Look at that.

I just shortened your list by 25%.

Any of these doctors have kids,
age 16 to 20?

What does that matter?

When your kids are young,
college is a theoretical.

When they get older,
it's a bill you have to pay,

and you do stupid sh*t to make money.

Looks and smarts.

You watch your f*cking manners.

Ooh. I hit a nerve.

Teenage kids.
Any of these doctors have them?

Yes. But no more free tastes.

Midazolam. Perfect sedative for a surgery.

I see you've had some suffering.

Yeah, not for a few weeks now.

- You too?
- Not for a few years.

didn't look like an acolyte.

What goes on there?

The barn's not for neophytes.

Not even supposed to go near it.

It's all for the project
at the sister farm.

What sister farm project?

It's a project to bring renewal
and betterment to mankind

through Lawrence's teachings.

The barn is where you're prepped
before you get sent to the sister farm.

Lawrence must personally invite you there.

You can't just take a look?

It's not for us to question Lawerence.

Just finish that and then we'll eat, okay?

Mandy.
You were on laundry duty last night?

Yeah.

[Mason] You never cleaned out
the lint trap.

Could've burned down the entire farm.

Judith wants to know…

are you incompetent or just stupid?

Um… I-I didn't know. I'm sorry.

That doesn't answer her question.

Stupid, I guess.

Leave her alone or you two won't be

Oh, you'll win, but you ain't

You shouldn't have done that.

You're a probationer and they're acolytes.

They're assholes.

You let people walk all over you, it's
real easy to become the world's doormat.

Thank you for sticking up for me.

Let's eat.

Yeah. [chuckles]

[Davos groaning softly]

He's half-baked.

Let's do it.

Theodore.

Nice to know the name of the guy
who's been trying to k*ll me.

I don't feel good.

Then you should want to cooperate
so we can get you to a doctor

that doesn't use Glade PlugIns
in his operating room.

[Neagley] Army Rangers?

The 78th?

You with them in Ghazni?

[suspenseful music playing]

That's a yes.

This isn't the first time
you've had to deal with real pain,

is it, Theo?

Ghazni, Afghanistan, '05?

I can tell from the magnesium burns.

You don't need to fight me.

I was a soldier, too.

I know about the 78th.

You guys were tough.

Your platoon was out sweeping for
a Taliban leader when you ran into a trap.

Heard the IED was some old

Russian-made magnesium that

took out half your squad.

The ambush took out the other half.

Only three survived.

Guess you were one of 'em.

[grunts softly] I don't want
to talk about that.

I'm guessing,

after the attack,

you got your medical discharge,

some meds, and was dropped off
in the civilian world,

only to find that…

there wasn't a great market
for trained K*llers.

So you took whatever job you could find,

spent all your time on hold with the VA,

hoping they could stop your pain,

and every loud noise
sounded like a g*nsh*t.

Then along comes Lawrence Cole…

…who offers you comfort

and family at Echo Canyon.

And you jump at the chance,

even if he makes you do things
that you don't want to do anymore.

Like make you his personal k*ller.

Was your partner Ford
with you in Afghanistan?

He used both of you.

He's going to cure Ford and me.

He's going to save everyone.

How?

[Davos] He's working on the cure.

For all of us.

He's a portal of truth.

He could cure you.

I've been watching you for days.

You got no life,

no friends.

Just work and home.

Solitary.

Alone.

Did Cole send someone
to run me off the road?

Did Cole send you to k*ll Charlie Halle
in the trailer park?

Did you know Charlie had a little girl?

And you took her father away.

I took a lot of fathers away.

Did Lawrence Cole have Tommy Crane k*lled?

It broke Tommy's parents.

They deserve to know what happened to him.

Did Cole have Tommy k*lled?

Y… Yes.

[whispers] Lawrence, forgive me.

Did you do it?

[regular volume] He wanted Tommy dead.

Tell me why.

Oh, d…

Please.

Please, I need a doctor.

Tell me.
Tell me why Cole wanted Tommy k*lled.

Hey.

I'm gonna grab your arm
if you don't move that blade.

He is our ticket. He is evidence.

You cannot k*ll him
and we cannot let him die.

[scalpel clatters]

Hey, hey. Theo.

Hey, hey. Stay with us.

Will you testify to what you just told us?

That Cole had Tommy Crane m*rder*d?

[crying] I don't want to k*ll anymore.

We've got our witness.

[sirens wailing in distance]

Someone in the department
thinks like we do.

Or they were tipped off
to where Davos would go.

We got to get him out of here.

- Nah, you're spinning.
- The fact that they got to him

this fast while trying
to keep me from finding him…

it's hinky.

I'll write up a report,

and I'll get Davos' statement
as soon as he's out of surgery.

Here. Put these on.

- Excuse me?
- I'm facing a ration of sh*t

'cause you got away.

Let me put on a show.

I tracked you here, I'm bringing you in.

You're out in an hour.

Hold this. It's important.

- [Murphy & Shepherd] Hands up!
- Hey, hey, hey,

hey, hey! Easy, boys.

I tracked her here.
Bad guy's cuffed inside.

You tracked her here?

How?

Good old-fashioned legwork.

How'd you end up here?

[chuckles softly]

I get a real bad feeling from that guy.

Yeah, on this, I don't disagree.

[g*nshots]

sh*t.

Stay here.

[tense music playing]

Hey, hey, hey. What the f*ck's going on?

He… he reached for my g*n.

He was half-sedated.

That's what happened.

He reached for the g*n.

I saw it.

He reached for the g*n.

I need an ambulance now
at 234 Logan Avenue.

You heard from Neagley yet?

Radio silence.

[phone vibrates]

Where the hell were you?

You were supposed to call 30 minutes ago.

They don't bake. Okay? It's all low-carb
and gluten-free and sh*t.

They don't have any rye flour on the farm.

Then why did Tommy mail some to Neagley?

'Cause he's a dusthead.

He sent it for a reason,
and you were sent to the farm to find out.

Look, I'm working on it, okay?

The whole place is crazy.
They have all these rules.

And there's some weird barn
no one's even allowed to look at.

Dudes in suits come and go out of it,

working on some sh*t
they call the project.

Sounds like you need
to check out that barn.

They're clearly hiding something in there.

It's in the middle of a field a couple
hundred yards away from the main compound.

I'd be spotted in seconds.

- Not in the middle of the night.
- Yo,

how about we pull the rip cord
on this thing and I get out of here?

Keno, you can do this.

You're making progress.
You got to follow this thread.

I'm not a cop.

I'm not a PI, okay?

No, you're a guy who owes a fortune
on the street that you can't pay.

Now, how can you get to that barn?

I'll figure it out.

Okay.

Okay. Good.

You're doing a good job.

Be careful.

Yo, don't do that.

All right? You yell at me one second,
kind of make fun of me,

and then you pretend to be my friend
'cause you want something from me.

Just like all the mean pretty girls
in school did.

Keno, let me be clear.

I'm not your friend.

I barely know you.

But I don't want something
to happen to you either.

Two things can be true at the same time.

So, please, keep your head down
and be safe.

And thank you for the compliment.

I didn't compliment you.

I said the mean girls in school
were pretty and that you were mean, too.

Two things can be true at the same time.

Touché.

- [keys jingle]
- [lock clicks]

Thanks.

You can go.

- No charges.
- That easy?

An Army vet with no priors
and the alleged victim is dead?

A.D.A. thought Plemel was out of his mind
for even bringing you down here.

Little light.

Not giving your g*n back in the station.

You look through this?

I am a detective.

That have anything to do with your dad
lying to you about your haphephobia?

Maybe.

There's stuff in there about your teachers
being worried about your behavior

when you were six.

What happened when you were six?

No clue.

You really interested?

Or just trying to deflect from the fact
that your friends ex*cuted Davos?

They are not my friends.

Who's the cop that shot him?

- Murphy.
- Who the hell's Murphy?

He's Deputy Chief Plemel's godson.

Plemel didn't want me to come after Davos

'cause Lawrence Cole
was worried I could get him to talk.

And so he made it
so he'd never talk again.

Look, I said something today
that I regret.

You were right.

Moving forward,

I have your back, Neagley.

Someone comes at you, they come at me.

Full stop.

Okay.

Same.

So…

…now we know Cole is able to do more
than k*ll people on train tracks

and trailer parks.

He's got enough juice
to pay off cops to take out witnesses.

And Tommy must have been a witness
to some sh*t on that farm.

And I still have no idea
why he was even there in the first place.

Guess we're back
to the one lead we have.

- Rye flour.
- Rye flour.

[cheering, applause]

[cheering crescendos]

[shouts]

My family.

What a beautiful evening.

What a lovely night

we get to spend together.

I am honored

to have been put on this Earth for

the sole purpose of caring

and providing for you all.

And part of that is rewarding you

for the loyalty

and the love you have shown me

and each other.

So…

like Sir Elton John,

my gift to you tonight…

is my song.

There's nothing here.

Well, keep looking.

I mean, there's nothing
to keep looking at, bro.

It's a barn.

And there are guards packing heat outside.

What the hell is that noise?

What's going on?

There's a goddam elevator
coming up out of the ground.

It's got someone on it.

Aw, dude, he's naked.

Oh, f*ck.

- What?
- He f*cking saw me.

Hi.

You know, you're
kind of standing at attention there.

You want to go
get some pants on or something?

Want to see something cool?

Keno.

Talk to me. What's going on?

No, don't…

[Doyle panting]

Nothing hurts anymore.

Oh, Christ.

What did you do?

[Doyle] I don't feel any pain.

Yeah, you will tomorrow.
