My name is abby mills, and I've come home to harper's island.
My best friend was supposed to marry the girl of his dreams,
but something terrible has happened.
Murders that echo the island's tragic past.
seven years ago, john wakefield killed six people.
My mother was one of them.
*****
it's happening again.
Previously on harper's island:
State police will be here first thing tomorrow morning.
there's a book.
It's all pretty burned up.
Keep it safe.
My mom-- when she was younger, she had an affair with wakefield.
They had a child together?
I could be john wakefield'saughter.
- Madison's gone. - She has to be around here somewhere.
No, she's not here. I've looked everywhere.
We need help finding madison.
Can you see anything?
I think it's a car.
- Madison. - Mommy.
- Did you like the game? - What?
The game. He said you'd like it.
- The man who took me. - What man, madison?
Your dad, abby. You know, the sheriff.
Mom.
Mom, really, I'm okay.
The sheriff didn't hurt me. It was just a game.
I know, you told me that, but you never told me what kind of game it was.
It was for abby.
He said that when she found me, I'd get a prize for being brave.
I see.
Did he tell you what kind of prize it would be?
He said that daddy would come back.
Oh, well...
I'm just so happy that you're safe.
- When? - I don't know.
She was still warm when I checked for a pulse.
You know abby's dad, right?
YeP.
In what world would he take a little girl?
Look, if the sheriff knows abby is wakefield's kid, I don't know,
maybe it broke him or something, and this is his way of punishing abby.
Yeah, but it doesn't punish abby. It punishes us.
Don't let it bother you.
I just can't see my dad doing any of this.
I mean, king madison, the killings.
He spent the night in the clinic.
Jimmy, can you fit us all on your boat, take us to seattle?
- Yeah, yeah, we can do that. - Good.
Bring only what you need. We're leaving the island.
I'm just going to go get some gas, okay?
- Henry, what's going on? - you coming?
Katherine's dead. We found her in the solarium.
I'm sorry, there's nothing we can do for her now. We need to get to the marina.
- How? - Doesn't matter.
No, the hell it doesn'T.
- She was alive, like, ten minutes ago. - And now she's dead.
And we need to get to the marina.
You think the killer's still here.
Yeah. Get maggie.
My dad's at the clinic with cal and chloe.
It's okay. We'll pick 'em up on the way to the marina.
Let's go home.
Adam-12. Washington state trooper, code five.
Jd dunn.
He's 23, history of mental illness,
institutionalized back in '04, no criminal record.
Why would this kid kill a real estate mogul like thomas wellington?
Why a pod?
- Why not a school or a herd? - What?
Why do you do that?
Change the subject when I'm talking to you?
This is exciting to you. You're new.
Pick up a killer and bring him to justice.
I'd rather enjoy the scenery.
Fine.
What's a head spade?
They use it to decapitate whales.
- That how wellington was killed? - Yeah.
A guy named wakefield used one of those on the island six or seven years ago.
You think it's connected?
No, wakefield's dead.
all right, here we go.
Hello?
Thank god.
How's my dad?
Where is he?
- Where's my dad? - I don't know.
You don't know?
I patched him up, I gave him a sedative to sleep, and then we...
It was my fault. I was scared.
Cal sat with me, and then I guess...
I'm sorry, we fell asleep.
Was he strong enough to walk?
It's hard to say. His oxygen tank's gone.
I'd say he's weak, probably disoriented.
We'll find him.
Washington state police. San juan. Go ahead.
San juan dispatch, this is coulter.
We're 10-23. The sheriff's here to meet us,
so we'll give you a call back once they've transferred the prisoner to our custody.
Copy that, officer coulter.
Morning, sheriff.

Harper's Island Season01 Episode10
You ever actually shoot anything before?
Yeah, all the time.
Halo, bioshock, gta.
I'm guessing that doesn't really count.
You guys ready?
Abby's dad is gone.
I'm sorry to hear that.
We should get to the boat.
You guys go ahead. I need to find my dad.
- I need to know what happened. - Are you saying madison lied?
No. I'm just trying to understand.
Last night,my dad was trying to get me off the island.
Why would he want to keep us here now?
I gave up on "why" a couple days ago.
His house is close. Maybe he's there.
If I'm not at the boat in time, do what you have to do.
- I'll go with you. - Henry.
- Trish, she can't go alone. - Yeah, what if...
- what if her dad is the e whs doing all this? - We don't know that.
Sully, take everyone down to the dock.
I'm going with you.
You going to wait for us?
never seen that before.
I think it's the state troope.
Abby said they were coming to collect jd first thing.
- First thing's a little late, huh? - Yeah.
Jd's going home in a body bag.
Let's just make sure the rest of us don't then.
Do you really think we're going to make it to the mainland with all those swells?
Don't even think about it. We're all going together.
We just got to fill up.
Cast us off, shane.
Abby, he's not here. We got to get down to the marina.
We have been through all of this.
Not all of it; there's got to be something that proves it.
That proves what-- who your dad is, that he didn't take madison?
Either, both I'll take anything.
Is this him? John wakefield?
Yeah.
Come on, it's time to go.
Henry.
These are the tunnels under the candlewick.
This is how he was getting in and out.
It's got to be your dad.
Madison and shea are waiting.
Abby... we got to go.
- 'cause that would be too easy. - What is it?
- There's no power. I need to go fire up the generator. - All right.
so, you ready to go home?
What about daddy?
Dad's not going with us.
Come on, man.
Come on, man, fire it up!
let's go! What are you waiting for?
They're dead, man. The cops are dead.
- Fire it up! - Okay.
jimmy, get out of there!
- Jimmy! - Abby!
- Ab, no! - J-jimmy!
Let me... jimmy!
Henry, let me go, please!
Jimmy, jimmy!
There's nothing you can do.
Go! That way, go! Go!
Go, go, go, go, go, go!
go, go, go!
- henry! - I'm fine.
Here. Abby, go! abby, run!
Let's go. Come on, let's go. Get inside.
Go, go, go, go, go, go.
Go. Go, go.
you saw something.
You knew something was wrong. Why did you leave jimmy alone?
- I didn't realize until... - you saw something!
- I tried to warn him! - Okay!
Okay, the-the state cops will be here soon.
This will be all over.
The cops are dead, man.
- What? - Saw their bodies in the water by the docks.
They're both shot in the chest.
Oh, my god.
Everything was screwed.
The fuel pump didn't work.
The generator was fritzed.
That's when I saw the dead cops, and then I knew, so don't come at me.
- What about the sriff? - Could he have done that?
Hell, yeah!
We don't even know where he is.
What, he's missing?
Well, he... he could barely walk.
Cal, you saw him.
He was weak. Took his oxygen with him.
- You mean like one of those tanks? - Yeah.
there was one on the dock. Right by the generator.
none of this proves he did anything, abby.
How much proof do you need?
We should get that looked at.
There should be a first aid kit in the kitchen. Come on.
Try not to put weight on that leg.
Well, it's no sacred turtle.
We're lucky we weren't all on that dock when it blew. We'd have been wiped out.
Man, that's not luck. That's a plan.
He wanted us dead, we'd be dead.
Maybe he just wants to keep abby here.
- Who, the sheriff? - Who else?
She tries to leave, he blows up the docks.
Wakefield did the same thing seven years ago.
Blew up the docks.
Yeah, only this time our guy took out all the boats, too.
You know what? We are screwed.
Wait. There's another boat.
Cal rented it for us.
It's at some private dock on the other side of the island.
Cal, what about the sailboat?
Couldn't we use that to get off the island?
It's big enough, yeah. If we could all just get to it.
Yeah, if we could just make it across the parking lot.
We can't all go.
We don't even know if it's still there.
I'll go.
I'll sail it back to the marina and meet you.
No, it's too dangerous.
It's not a problem. I'll go.
Henry, you can't run on that leg.
I mean, shouldn't somebody go who has the best chance of getting there?
What about him? He can sail. He knows the island.
I'm not going out there, getting shot. Thanks, though.
Henry, what are you doing?
- Get away from the door! - Just shoot.
We don't know who it is.
- Hello? - Who is it?
It's nikki.
Did you guys break in? What... what are you doing here?
Us? What about you?
I heard the explosions. I saw the fire down at the marina.
There's no power anywhere, and...
there's a generator here. I didn't know where else to go.
Maybe he's gone.
He's not gone.
Somebody was shooting at us, and we think it was thsame person that blew up the marina.
Maggie maybe he's only after you-all.
He's not interested in us locals.
Jimmy was local.
Tell me.
He was on his boat when it happened.
The explosion?
Oh, my god.
I never told him how I felt, ever.
I just always expected him to be there waiting for me.
And now he's gone because of me.
No, no.
If I hadn't come back, none of this would have happened.
Ask them.
You didn't cause this.
Nikki...
it's my dad.
They're saying it's my dad.
I just can't see him doing any of this.
I just...
what?
You haven't seen your dad in a long time, abby.
After it all happened, something broke.
That's nikki's car.
You can drive it to the boat.
How do we know when to meet him at the marina?
You can send up a flare.
Can't see a flare from here.
What about an air horn?
Yeah, let's just blast an air horn.
Make sure the killer knows we're escaping.
Sully, it's all we've got. There's no radio.
One more thing. Who's going with cal?
I am.
You want this to actually succeed, right?
Where are you going?
I'm going home-- he didn't touch nikki, he won't touch me.
Maggie, you can't go out there.
This has nothing to do with me.
Maggie.
Oh, what the hell? Let's just leave.
Be my guest.
Sorry about jimmy.
I know you guys were good friends.
You know, they charge 14 bucks here for a shot of this stuff. I...
I don't see what all the fuss is.
You're probably a scotch man, huh?
Probably sip it all swell-style and say things like "fruity" and "smoky."
Man, why do you do that?
Isn't today bad enough without picking another fight?
I'm not picking a fight.
That's all you do.
You insult me, trish.
You talk trash about anybody who wasn't born on this island.
Is it really that great being a local?
Man, this place sucks.
I only say you guys suck more 'cause you choose to come here.
Why in god's name would you want to get married here?
Believe me, I'm having second thoughts.
listen, if we're going to get out of here, we're going to need your help.
I'm not going anywhere.
You keep talking about going home.
I am home.
Yeah, well, your home has been turned into a graveyard,
and no matter what you think about me and my friends, we're all in this together.
Thought you didn't like it.
I don'T.
Jimmy drank scotch.
I'm having a drink for jimmy.
This should warm you up.
Why does everyone think I'm cold?
I could make iced tea.
No, I like this.
Can I ask you something?
My dad hurt his leg really badly yesterday.
He... he could barely walk.
Did he seem okay to you?
I don't know. I couldn't tell.
It was dark down there in the tunnels.
I guess he was okay.
It's just, I'm worried about him,
because I can't find him now.
I'm worried about my dad, too.
You know, when I was in the tunnels, it-it was hard to see.
I wonder...
are you sure it was my dad who took you there?
Stay away from her! Just stay away!
I-I'm not hurting her.
Shea, remember, abby's the one who found her.
And now she's quizzing her about her dad?
Maddie's been through enough!
There's someone on the roof.
What?
it's him.
don'T.
There could be fuel.
He might be setting the place on fire.
At least he'd blow up.
We can't just leave her out there.
We don't have a choice.
cal, if you drop another one, this bar is gonna ignite.
Got to use rum for the wicks.
- You guys sure this is gonna work? - Yeah.
We need a distraction to help get sully and cal to nikki's car.
We making bombs or bubbles?
Alcohol burns real fast.
Soap gives it something to stick to, acts like napalm.
We were all in the same frat.
Mm, ain't she beautiful?
Another bottle.
Now we wait for dark.
Chloe?
I'm sorry.
Sorry? For what?
Bringing you to this wedding.
yeah.
Of all the weddings I've been to, this one ranks near the bottom.
the only one worse was my mother's fourth marriage to an irish clogger.
Stop doing that.
Doing what?
Pretending to be brave.
I don't want you to go looking for that boat.
I know. I don't want to, either.
I want to be right here with you for the rest of my life.
will you, um, will you do something for me?
You hold this?
'Cause when I get back, I have something to ask you.
danny and I will light up the beater truck.
- Once the smoke starts... - run.
- Run your ass off. - Got it?
Is it reliable?
She's perfect.
You just need to jiggle it.
Jiggle it. Got it. I'm driving.
Ready?
We need more.
no sign of our guy.
Let's do this thing.
don't forget, jiggle it.
Sorry about... that.
It's cool.
Uh, just bring it back in one piece or I'll kick your ass.
- It's time. - Yeah.
Wait.
Go.
Cal!
Right. America. Other side.
where is he?
- Come on! - I can't see anything.
come on, come on!
Jiggle it!
come on.
- Yes! - Okay.
Did one of them get hit? I-I couldn't see.
I think I saw blood.
Chloe, there was too much smoke.
They did it. I think they're gonna make it.
They'll be okay.
Why did we stop?
Ah, you're totally bleeding out.
No, no, no! We need to get to the boat.
You need a doctor.
I am a doctor, and I'm ordering you to get us to the boat!
I'll be right back, okay?
Will she be okay?
Nothing's gonna happen to her, sweetheart.
Everything's gonna be okay.
It's safe now.
Daddy's gone.
And when I ask mommy where he went, she won't tell me.
No one will.
Where do you think he went?
I think he's dead.
come on. Stay with me, cal.
All right. Okay.
All right, I'm gonna keep you warm, keep you talking, uh...
keep pressure on the wound.
You need to remove the bullet.
Right. Uh, okay.
I'll bandage you up, and I'm gonna go get the doc, that old dude.
What's his name?
Well, then I'll be dead.
No. Look, the last time I played doctor was in grade school.
I-I can't do this.
Well, this is different.
I'm gonna teach you.
Something's wrong. It's been hours.
We got to give them more time.
But what if they're hurt? I heard the shots.
Why is he doing this?
we got company.
It's coming right at us.
wait, wait, hold on, shane. There's something on the hood.
That might be a bomb.
No, it'S...
it's a body.
it's jimmy.
he's alive.
Take my gun. Abby, abby, take my gun.
- Shane, get his feet. - All right, all right.
- Come on, come on, come on. - Easy, easy.Two, three.
Come on. Come on!
Put him on the table.
- Careful, careful, careful. - Yeah.
Easy, easy, easy, easy.
How did he survive the blast?
I mean-I mean, we saw the boat...
I yelled. Maybe he jumped.
Where's the first aid kit? Chloe?
Maybe someone else was driving the truck.
Oh, come on. Sheriff's truck, sheriff's awol.
What do we need, a burning bush?
- Why did he let him live? - What the hell?
He didn't work at the hotel, did he?
It's mine.
Room 209.
Did you give it to him?
No, no.
I left it in the room; I was never going back.
Well, what's it doing on jimmy?
It's a message. Don't you get it?
Sheriff drives in here in his big ol' truck with the lights blazing.
It's maximum effect. The dude's having fun.
It's a game.
He wants you, abby.
He wants you to go back there, back to the candlewick.
No way, no way. It's too dangerous.
And-and how do we know that's what he wants?
He knows how you feel about jimmy.
He let him live, brought him here.
It-it's a peace offering.
Look, he's your dad, okay?
Maybe he just wants to talk.
He may be her dad, but if he's been killing people, do you really think he just wants to talk?
What do you think he wants?
- I don't care. I say we all go and end this. - Yeah.
no, nobody can end this but me.
You're not going alone.
Trish is right-- this is between me and my dad.
If you or anyone else comes with me, we're all dead.
It's not your key, henry. It's hers.
Stay here and wait for the signal from sully and cal.
I'll get back as soon as I can.
- I can't let you do this. - Henry, I came back here to face him, didn't I?
Now I just need a gun.
It is you.
Abby...
- did you get jimmy? - What?
Is jimmy safe?
Yeah.
But you knew that.
Thank god.
He kept his end of the deal.
What are you saying?
It's john wakefield.
I made a deal with him...
to keep jimmy alive.
John wakefield is dead.
You killed him, remember?
I shot him.
But I never found his body.
I buried someone else.
Why should I believe anything you say?
Because this is a trap.
I'm a trap. U have to leave.
No.
I'm not a little girl anymore.
You can't just send me away!
Don't come near me!
What is it?
I have to tell you something.
I lied.
Lied about what, honey?
Abby's dad didn't take me.
My new friend did.
He said I had to lie to abby.
Those were the rules.
He said if I didn't, mommy would disappear like daddy.
Madison, who's your new frie?
Wakefield is alive. I swear it.
No. You're-you're obsessed with wakefield.
And seeing me brought it all back.
- Is that why you said mom got what she deserved? - Abby, just go.
I don't want you to see this.
- You found out mom had a child with him. - That's what he wts.
- That's why you sent me away. - No, god, no.
Am I wakefield's child?
No! You're my daughter! Mine!
Don't you ever forget that.
Dad...
no, don'T.
It's too late for me.
- Jimmy loves you. - Dad...
you two can have a life together.
Deal you made with wakefield, was it your life for jimmy's?
No, abby... don't watch this.
It was john wakefield who was driving your truck.
He dumped jimmy at the cannery.
Abby, look at me.
This is wakefield's game.
He uses everything we love against us to take us out one by one.
This will never be over until he's dead.
- I couldn't do it, but you're strong. - No.
You can finish wakefield.
Dad...
I love you so much.
dad!
it's you.
You look just like your mother.
