06x05 - Ellis Island

[bunniefuu]

Previously on Ray Donovan...

He's gonna have
to kiss my black ass!

You're not my f*cking son.

Your sexual orientation
or your country of origin...

Hello, Ray-Ray.

It's gonna take me a
couple hours to get the money.

Thanks.

I'll get your money!
I'll get your money!

I want the rest
of my money back.

Where's Bridge?

She-she's okay.

f*ck you.

Hospital, baby?
Take you to the hospital?

No.
No, baby, no.

Hey, boy.

It's not so bad. See?

- Hey, hey, hey.
- Don't you f*cking move!

Get him out of here.
Get him out of here!

- He didn't do nothing!
- What the f*ck did I do, huh?

Hey!

Hey, did your family
come through Ellis Island?

What?

Uh, your family-

did they come
through Ellis Island?

My grandparents.

Some others.

Have you ever been out there?

No.

I think my dad took me
when I was, like, six...

to the Statue of Liberty.

And he bought these special
tickets so we could go

up into the crown.

I remember I w-I was-

I was terrified 'cause there's
all these small spaces

and, you know,
a lot of steps.

I remember my dad,
he, uh...

he took me by the hand,

and he, uh...

put-put me
up on his shoulders, and I...

Tonight...

Yeah?

If Bridget asks, you were out
drinking with your buddies.

What?

You were drinking
with your buddies.

Hey, I-I don't-I don't really
like to lie to Bridget.

What?

I don't really like
to lie to Bridget.

You tell her you were
a f*cking drug dealer

when you asked her
to marry you?

- No.
- Eighty grand in debt?

No.

But you don't like
to lie to her?

Hey, Chalky's gonna
be really pissed.

I mean, he's gonna
send somebody.

Don't worry about Chalky.

Oh, he's gonna come after me.

No, he's not.

Okay.

Well, uh...

Hey, thanks.

Get rid of those clothes.

Yeah, I will.
I will.

And, uh...
hey, don't worry.

I'm-I'm not gonna tell
Bridget,

you know, anything or-

sh*t.

Oh.
Hey, Bridget.

Go back to the apartment.

Oh, we were...

We were just going-we
were getting a-a drink.

Do you think I'm stupid?

No, babe.

What did you do?

I talked to a guy
he had a problem with.

Oh, did you go with him?

- Yeah.
- Did you k*ll someone?

- No.
- Did he k*ll someone?

No.

Well, you have
blood all over you,

so whatever you did
wasn't f*cking good.

Conor's flight gets in at ten.

- What?
- Conor's flight-

You need to go.

Bridge-

You need to get the f*ck
out of our lives.

She's really pissed.

I should go.

Yeah.

We need to talk.

What's up, Ter?

Bunchy just called me,
and we need to f*cking talk.

All right.

So we hit a bump
in the road. It happens.

That's water
under the bridge now.

f*cking shut up, Mick.

Would you please just
shut the f*ck up?

Hey, look, she got three priest
outfits in here.

She got everything.

What kind of operation
was she running, huh?

I took everything I could.
Look at this.

They got this.
Look, look.

That's great,
you useless f*ck.

Hey, accentuate the positive.

Eliminate the negative.

Confucius said that
or some f*cking person.

Yeah.

dramatic music

Lacy's perfect.

Lacy Anson should not
have called you at all.

Well, she was gonna lose
the script to another actress.

She's on our no-contact list,
is she not?

It's just business.

Well, I'm sure
you'd like to believe

it's just business,
George.

Lacy's perfect.

She looks just like
Ursula Andress.

George.

Lacy is not Ursula Andress.

Lacy is not a movie star.

And you telling
her that she will be

is what started this cycle.

Now, you need to go
back to Minnesota.

- No.
- Yes. You have to go back.

George, look at me.

28 more days as an inpatient.

Complete that, and then we
will reopen the conversation.

But I f*cking hate it there.

I know.

But don't be angry
with me, George. I love you.

Well, then f*ck the movie.

That's the spirit.

Ed.

Forgive the lateness
of this call.

dramatic music

Yeah, I think we should meet.

Tomorrow morning is perfect.

Thank you.

And you couldn't talk
no sense to him?

I tried.

What, you're just happy
for Mick to walk away

with three million bucks?

What else was I supposed to do?

Why don't I f*cking
believe you?

What happened to your face?

What?

Who did that to you?

Ah, it was fair and square.

What was?

I took a fight.

What the f*ck you talking
about, you took a fight?

It was a bare-knuckle thing.
I got five grand.

Are you out
of your f*cking mind?

No.

Terry.

What about the DBS?

Y-you got f*cking wires
in your head.

Brain surgery.
You could die.

Not could. Will.
There's no could about it, Ray.

I'm gonna die.
So are you.

All right.

It's your f*cking head.

You know, you should have
called me about Bunch.

You should have
brought me to him.

You really think it
would have made a difference?

Yeah.

'Cause he's afraid of you.

He always has been.

dramatic music

All right.

You stay here.

I'm f*cked.

I got time for
a little sightseeing.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

"The Lion K"-
Musicals.

Girls, little girls.

Hampton Jitney,
what's this?

It's a bus.

Rich assholes take it to their
houses out in the Hamptons.

Wow.

Sign here.

dramatic music

Ah...

Thanks.

Have a nice night,
Mr. Johnson.

I've heard the charges and
looked over your record, sir.

What?

So your wife Amber's
coming back?

...that you've been
apprehended with such

a large quantity of dr*gs.

I'm setting your bail
at $50,000.

You still want her?

- Yeah. Yeah.
- Yeah?

Your Honor, Mr. Bruce
is not a drug dealer.

He-he was sleeping
in a public park.

You know,
f*cking Johnny Caputo-

you, uh...

you think she would talk
to him about anything?

She wouldn't.

Well, you don't
f*cking know that.

She wouldn't.

Just drop it.

Bail is $50,000,
Counselor. That is all.

I'm serious.

My wife cheated on me,

I would make her suck
my d*ck every f*cking day.

Maybe even a**l.

Next.

Argan Crabja.

dramatic music

Dad.

Hey.

- You all right?
- Yeah.

Why?

You look like you've
been drinking a little.

Since we got out of Pendleton.

So?

Just asking.

We just finished
basic training.

We're going to Europe to serve.

I think I can handle
a few f*cking beers.

All right, Con.
All right. I just asked.

You drink all the time.

I said all right.
Jeez.

Want to get some food?

Where?

A million places.
Get some breakfast-

I'm kind of tired.

Can we just go back
to your place?

Sure.

I got good news.

Inspiration has already struck.

Hey, we were watching that.

I'll take you to Vietnam.

It's a f*cking bus timetable,
Mickey.

And we're already on
Long Island, you senile f*ck.

Senile like a fox.

Get up.

Get up.
We're going on a field trip.

We're all going
on a field trip.

Come here.
Let's go, muffin.

Where the-

Going on a field trip.
Ooh!

Get the f*ck up.

You wanted to send him to that
fancy prep school, not me.

He never would have met a girl
like that if he'd gone local.

He's 40, darling.

He's made his bed.
You can't sleep in it with him.

I'm not giving him any more.

Not another penny.

I'm stretched thin as it is.

Feratti wants to see you.

dramatic music

Then you get a job, Elaine.

Get a job and support
your 40-year-old son.

Hey, Sam.

Ed.

Hey, I'm sorry to hear
about your brother.

Cancer's back.
Want to buy a bowling alley?

Maybe.
I don't have one of those.

Saw that "sharpsh**ter"
last week.

- That one's one of yours?
- Yeah.

Do you like it?

It was loud.
Girl was good.

- She was.
- Mm.

Making money for you?

Well, I made that one for Asia.

It'll make 35 million here,
but overseas another 300.

Yeah.

Success d'argent.

What the f*ck is that?

It's a-it's
a French term that means...

well, it makes me feel better
for not making art.

Black, right?

You remembered.

Why the visit?

I want you to support my bid
to buy Arthur k*ll.

In exchange, I'll withdraw
my support for Anita Novak.

You been out much today?

Yes.

Smell how fresh the morning is?

Mm.

You're referring to the fact

that the garbage
is no longer there.

Who'd you pay off
in Sanitation?

Don't know what
you're talking about.

And that bullshit
with my former driver-

those lies you
paid him to tell.

Can't change
your past, Eddie.

You can. You did.
You're making sh*t up.

dramatic music

I want Arthur k*ll.

You get it for me,

I'll put your face
on all my billboards.

Endorse you in my newspaper
and television stations.

Not gonna happen.

Eight thousand jobs-
you'll be a hero.

The truth is I don't want
to be associated with you.

Thanks for the coffee.

Oh, and, Sam?

You keep up this bullshit,

I'll match you move
for f*cking move.

You enjoy the remainder
of your term,

Mr. Mayor.

How's your head?

It's all right.

- k*ller view.
- Yeah.

I was thinking about
going out there today.

- Where?
- Statue of Liberty.

They got a ferry
does the whole thing-

Ellis Island, Statue.

Why?

You know, it's where your
great-grandparents came in,

your...

uncles, aunts,
all sorts of people.

Daryll said that I could come
to set and meet K'lei Hughes.

Sure.

That's-that's all the way up
in Harlem, though,

and the Statue's right there.

It's f*cking
K'lei Hughes.

I told the squad
I'd get a selfie with her.

Right, so you'd rather have
a selfie with K'lei Hughes-

- Oh, forget it.
- Con, wait.

I-

Yeah?

I need you to come
to my apartment.

Can it wait?

No, it cannot.

I'll be there soon.

dramatic music

How long since our last stop?

I don't know.

What the f*ck
are you writing?

Right there.

That one earring
can get us to Canada.

- Yeah.
- You awake?

The money's heading north,
if you were wondering.

How's Justine?

Fine. Why?

Think she'd do
another job for us?

I can't ask her
to f*ck another newsman.

No, that's not
what I had in mind.

- Then what?
- I'll text you the details.

- Let me know what she says.
- All right, you sure

you just don't want
to go get that money?

No.
Just call Justine.

Did you get
to see the paper?

- No.
- Garbage strike's over.

Yeah, I noticed.

Feratti got to the head
of the union.

It's all over the f*cking news.

- I met with Anita last night.
- Yeah?

Had an idea to get her back in
the running,

maybe steal the headlines.

What?

Might be better if
I kept you out of it for now.

Can it happen today?

I need some time to put
the pieces together, but-

We don't have time, Ray.
The election's in two weeks.

I need it to happen today.

Yeah?

This is
so f*cking cool.

Like "Superfly,"
"Shaft."

"Can you dig it?"

Ray-Ray.

Oh, sh*t.

What is this,
bring your kid to work day?

Hey, Stu.

Conor, come here.

You want to watch?

Here.
Page 19.

Here's the headset.
Put it on.

Sit down in the big chair.

Ray.

How are you, Stu?

We all thought you d*ed.

You seen my brother?

Eh, banished from the set.

What?

Yeah, stars can be
mercurial, Ray.

You know,
they're emotional people.

I don't need to tell you that.

I don't know-for some reason,

Jay won't work
if Darryl is on set.

So Sam sent me out here
to wrap up this piece

of absolute horseshit...

you know, that I'm-I'm
very excited about, Ray,

because I'm thrilled to be
in the streaming business.

I love streaming.
You know, it's the future.

I love that
the audience doesn't go

to the movie theater anymore,

that they watch our work
on their phones

while they ride the subway,

you know, while they're
doing their dishes,

you know,
while they're taking a sh*t.

Stu!

Okay, Ray.
Yeah, you better go.

Get Conor and go now.
Go.

It's not my call,
but get going.

Get your kid
and get out of here.

What?

Ray, get the f*ck
off my set!

- Yo, man, come on.
- Thank you.

Conor, let's go.

Hey, call me, Ray. I'll be
in town for another month.

I got a whole new family,
you know?

She's Chinese, so if we have
kids, Jewish and Asian-

- f*ck off, Stu.
- All right, we'll have lunch.

Conor wants to see you.

Y-you know, Ray,
I-I-I did everything

you asked me to do.

Stop complaining.

Uh-uh, what?

Sober up and meet me
at my office.

Okay, and-and-and
why is that?

I got a job for you.

You do it right,

I promise you'll get back
on the movie.

- I'm sorry, Con.
- It's cool.

I'm just gonna go hang out
with Bridget.

No, wait.

There's a three o'clock ferry
to Liberty Island.

What do you say?

- Dad, I don't-
- Battery Park, 2:30.

I'll meet you there.

It's a beautiful Thursday, huh?

Sure...

I guess.

If this is Thursday,

that means tomorrow is...

- Friday.
- Friday.

Friday in New York City...

where the rich f*cking people
invite their rich friends

out to their 20 million
dollar houses on the beach.

How does that get us
to Vietnam, Mick?

We're on the bus,
we're on the Jitney, right?

We're not sitting together.

I'm in the front.
You're in the back.

At a certain point,

I take out my g*n.

Everybody goes...
"Just calm down.

Just put all your valuables,"
you know,

"your cash, your cell phones
in this bag."

It's being passed
down the aisle.

And you stand up
in the back, and you say,

"Let's do what he says, folks.

"I got a little girl here.
I don't want anyone hurt.

Let's not do anything stupid."

And I take the loot.
I jump off.

You get off at the next stop,
where we have left our car.

And then you
come pick me up.

Bingo.

You're out of your
f*cking mind.

It's a solid plan.

Oh, yeah, me and Maria
on the bus.

Then we get off,
and who has to talk

to the f*cking cops?

- It's f*cking idiotic.
- I told you.

You get off.
You get off.

I ain't doing that in a million
f*cking years, Mick.

Oh, you don't like it?

Well, you think
of a better way...

because we got to get
some cash,

and it seems to me
this is our best f*cking bet.

dramatic music

Yeah.

You want to get ice cream?

Huh?

Come on, we'll get
a nice ice cream.

Um, let me get a-
you know,

a b*mb pop or whatever you got.

That's fine.

Here.
Thank you.

Here we go.
Oh!

Yeah.

Hi.

Can I have some?

Yeah?

Here.

What?
What is this?

I need you to be at the
North Woods Bridge at 1 p.m.

Okay, why?

There's another job.

I do this,
you get Ray to help my brother.

Absolutely.
Yeah.

I promise.

I'm guessing I put these on?

Yeah.

And then you're gonna go
for a little jog.

Okay.

Is that it?

No.

I got to make you look bad.

Yeah.

Will you close your eyes?

Is it done?

I'm gonna need
my brother to help.

- Daryll?
- We get it done,

you should think
about giving him his job back.

Listen...

you get the numbers
going in the right direction,

and I'll let your little
brother go sit back on the set.

Continue.

dramatic music

Help!
Somebody help!

- No! No!
- Hey!

- Let me go!
- Hey!

Get the f*ck
over here!

- Hey, stop that!
- You need some help?

Yes, call 911 right now.

Come down here.
We need some help.

Get off her!

- You guys, come down here.
- Let her go!

You let her go!

Get in there!

Hey, you okay?

- There he goes!
- Come on up.

Take some breaths.

Over there!

Go, go, go, go, go!

- They're on their way.
- Oh, my gosh.

Okay.

Stay with me.
It's okay.

Breathe.
They're coming.

Okay?

Okay.

It's about ready
to go out.

Yeah. Yeah...

All right.

Hold on.
Dad, hold on.

Con, where are you?

I'm hanging out
with Jake and Bridget.

I said 2:30.

I forgot. I'm sorry.

What's going on?

It's Dad. He wants to go
to the Statue of Liberty.

Um, Dad, listen.

I want to hang out
with these guys.

Do you want to come here?

It's all right.
I'll catch up with you later.

He's not coming.

Good.

dramatic music

You been stood up, huh?

Whoever canceled on you,
f*ck them.

My son.

Really, though, don't let him
ruin such a pretty day.

Might I sit with you?

Sure.

I have been dying to get on
a boat ever since I got here...

just for the fresh air.

The city smells
bad in the heat.

Where you from?

Ireland.

Yeah, I sort of figured that.
Where?

Cork.
You ever been?

What's your name?

- Ray.
- Just Ray?

Donovan.

Ray...

you look like
your dog just d*ed.

Thanks.

Do you get that a lot?

Has your dog just d*ed?

Calm down.
Now you're gonna make a scene.

dramatic music

"But, I being poor,
have only my dreams,

so tread softly because
you tread on my dreams."

Yeats.

You don't know Yeats?

Well, you should.

For a fella of few words,
poetry can come in handy.

So, what do you do?

- Security.
- Yeah?

Like what?
Blankets?

Yeah, blankets.

Do your security blankets pay?

They can.

- Sounds f*cking dreadful.
- It is.

But you do it
for your family, though.

Yeah.

Your boy, how old?

18.

And is he in the blanket
business, too?

No, he's a Marine.

Shipping off
for Germany tonight.

And you're here for what?

To show him where
it all started?

Something like that.

Any of these yours?

Michael Donovan.

Did you know him?

No.
Came over in 1939.

Enlisted in '42.
d*ed overseas in '43.

At least
that's what I heard.

Poor fucker came here just
to go back and get k*lled.

Yeah.

Sort of a thing in my family.

My Uncle Pat d*ed in Korea.

Cormac, Vietnam.

Is that why you're
bringing your boy here?

What do you mean?

Scare him
so he wouldn't be a soldier.

Take a picture.
Show it to your son.

dramatic music

All right, ready?

Ter?

I thought you and Mick
were on the lam.

We lost the money.

Mick lost the money.

I need you to watch Maria.

I can't just take
your kid, Bunch.

If I'm not back
in 48 hours...

call Teresa.

What are you gonna do?

Don't matter.

Look, let me help you,
all right?

Let me get you and Maria
out of this.

You got a million dollars,
Terry, huh?

You got a way to get us
out of the country?

Watch her.

That's how you help.

I know, right?

Hey, hey,
hey, hey, hey.

You got Uncle Terry, all right?

So he comes
back in, right?

Like...

he's all f*cked up
and bloody.

Ear torn off,
his pants, like-

Strangely, his pants
are missing.

So he looks
right at the bartender.

Bartender looks at him.

- Is Conor ready?
- No.

Hey, Dad.

Hey.

Uh, I was gonna come meet you.
I just lost track of time.

You should probably change.
Don't want to miss your flight.

Okay.

I'd offer you a hit,
but I'm guessing

that you don't get high.

- Hmm.
- Well, you should.

Hey, I heard that
the cops got Chalky.

And I wa-I mean,
at first I was worried that,

uh, he'd tell them what-
everything that we did.

But then I figured
that he got busted

'cause you made it happen.

So, uh...

Well, did you?
You make it happen?

We should probably go.

Love you.

See you, man.

You want me to put the car in
short term, come in with you?

You don't got to do that.

- I want to.
- You can't.

I mean, security's,
like, right there

- when you walk in the door.
- So what? I'll go in with you.

No one else is going
in with their father.

You know, you don't have
to do this, Con.

- Do what?
- Be a Marine.

All of this.

You can do anything you want.

This is something
I'm gonna be good at.

You could be good
at a lot of things.

You say that
'cause you're my dad.

I just don't want you
to do anything stupid

'cause you're mad at me.

I'm not mad at you.

It's all right if you are.
You got every right to be.

Listen, if this is about
the Statue of Liberty...

- No.
- ...I'm sorry I didn't go.

I didn't think it
was such a big deal.

It's not a big deal, Con.
It's not.

This-this is, though.

It's a big f*cking deal,
and I don't want you to make

a choice for the wrong reasons,
you know?

I got to go.

Con, wait.

Con!

Hey!

dramatic music

And I figure,
to get there,

we cross to Montreal,
fly to Vancouver,

then we book passage
on a container ship.

It stops
in a bunch of places-

Guam, Yokohama.

Places you only heard of.

A sea voyage.

A sea voyage, Bunch-
What could be grander?

And when we get to Vietnam,

we find that place
where Cormac was k*lled,

and we put a plaque there.

I want to do that for him.

Bunch...

it's good you left
her with Ter.

She's safe.

And now your mind
is free to concentrate.

Hey, what are you doing here?

Getting a drink.

Long drive from Manhattan
just for a drink.

- Yeah.
- Lou.

Get Ray a whiskey.

Hey.

You see your kid?

I just dropped him off.

Well, half these guys in here
went into the service.

He'll be all right.

I f*cked up.

What?

I should have made him stay.

You think he
would have listened?

I mean, come on,
the kid's 18 years old.

What 18-year-old
listens to his father?

I mean, did you?

My father was a piece of sh*t.

My father was a saint.
Told me he loved me every day.

Still...

couldn't stand him
when I was 18, you know?

You're a good father.

You love your kids.

What more can you do?

You h*m* coming
to the boatyard?

- No.
- f*ck you.

You're coming.

Bring enough a*mo
for Hollywood.

Come on.

What?

Nothing.

Come on.
Let's go sh**t some g*ns.

Grandaddy's "So You'll Aim
Toward the Sky"

Everything's all right, okay?

You're so beautiful.

So beautiful.

So you'll aim

Toward the sky

And you'll rise

High today

Fly away

Look, look,
I'm just not answering

questions right now, okay?

Tell us the story.

I'm not gonna say.

I just did what any f*cking
New Yorker would do.

Any quality New Yorker
would do the same thing.

Far from pain

So you'll aim

Toward the sky

And you'll rise

High today

Fly away

Far away

Far from pain

So you'll aim

Toward the sky

And you'll rise

Far from pain

So you'll aim

Toward the sky

And you'll rise

You gonna invite me in?

Nice place.

There something you need?

- What you did today...
- Yeah?

You're pretty f*cking clever.

Not really.

So people are just dumb?

I don't know.

You gonna offer me a drink?

What do you want?

Nothing.

So why are you here?

dramatic music

No?

Yes!
