Shit.
Things always got complicated with Vic.
That's the rest of it.
Is there a problem?
What's your poison?
Whiskey neat.
A little hair of the dog, eh?
You want me to see if I can get you in?
Yeah.
I know some people at the top.
Is there an initiation process?
Good morning, gentlemen.
Hey, look who's here.
Hey Vic, come on, open up.
Yeah, we're thirsty.
Take our money, Vic, please.
I open at noon.
Same as always
Morning, Michelle.
Hey Vic, how are you doing?
What'll you have?
I'll have an Egg La Honda and a cup of Joe.
Horseradish and mayo on that?
You bet your sweet ass.
And with the eyes closed, let's take one last moment
to remember not to do harm,
to yourself, to others.
Thank you for your practice.
Namaste.
Hiya, Vic.
Blake.
How ya doing?
I'm doing alright. I'm getting by.
And you?
Same.
You still running Apple Jack's?
Opening up as we speak.
How about you?
Still teaching people how to stretch?
You know, there's a little more to it than that?
I had a shrink who told me to go to yoga once.
That was the last time I talked to him.
But hey, whatever gets you out of bed.
Well, it helps me sleep through the night, you know.
That is a feat.
I wish I could watch you sleep through the night.
What do you want, Vic?
I need your help.
I thought we agreed it would be better
if we didn't see each other.
I know we didn't end things on a good note.
Yeah, you could say that.
You must think I'm a really horrible person.
I don't think you're a horrible person, Vic.
It's just you and I when we get together, it's like,
we're like live wires.
Yeah, but you must admit the sparks are pretty exciting.
If you won't help me, maybe you'll help my brother.
Ryan went missing a few days ago,
and today I got a weird letter.
I'm worried something might have happened to him.
Well, this sounds like a police matter, Vic.
I don't know what you want me to do about it.
I don't need the police, I need you.
Come to La Honda.
I can't, now it's just not a good time for me.
Well, you know Fallujah wasn't exactly a good time
for me either.
But I was there for you.
Good bye, Vic.
Shit.
OK, Vic.
You win.
I had six hours on the drive north
to come to my senses before she was close enough
to pull me back in.
But one thing kept me going.
Semper fi.
It didn't matter that she was toxic or that
she threatened to kill me when we finally split up.
What mattered is when I needed her most,
Vic was there.
She'd never let me forget that.
But the closer I got and despite my better judgment,
there was something I couldn't deny.
I was excited to see her.
God of love,
it's Cupid, right?
One, two, three, four, this puzzle says it's four letters.
Try Eros.
Eros, of course.
It's Greek, not Roman.
There you go.
I'll give you a couple of minutes.
I'll just have a Cobb salad and some water, please.
OK.
Can I get you anything else?
Well, actually I'm hoping you can help me with something.
I'm looking for a friend of mine, Ryan Taylor?
Yeah, I know Ryan.
Sometimes I wish I didn't.
He's better in small doses.
Yeah, small doses.
That's a nice way of putting it.
When was the last time you saw him?
He was in here a few days ago with Coops.
Coops.
What did they talk about?
Ryan was going on and on about
how he was onto something big.
Maybe Coops could help me find him.
Maybe.
He works over at Duarte's, you could ask him.
Duarte's, OK, thanks.
You're welcome.
Thanks for your help.
You're welcome, thank you for your help.
Have a good one.
Oh hey, Rita, how was everything?
Do you always gossip this much?
Excuse me?
You just watch your mouth
about things that don't concern you.
OK?
Rude.
So reservation for four at 6:00?
You got it, thank you.
Hi, welcome to Duarte's, will you be dining alone?
I'm looking for Joe Cooper.
Oh, he just finished his shift,
which means you'll find him at the bar.
What'll you have?
Lagunitas.
Much obliged.
Thank you.
Are you Joe Cooper?
Yeah.
Blake Baker, how you doing?
A lot better now that I'm finished with work.
Hey, I'm looking for a friend of mine.
Oh yeah, who?
Chances are I might know him if he lives around here.
Yeah, Ryan Taylor.
The less I know about where that douchebag is
and who he's with, the better.
That's kind of funny because I heard that you two guys
are into something together.
Oh yeah, you heard that?
I don't know nothing about that.
Ah, I'm just,
getting this impression that you're bullshitting me.
I don't give a shit what impression you get.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'd like to finish
my beer in peace.
Actually, I do mind, Coop.
So what if you do?
Get the fuck out of my face!
Oh fuck!
We don't want any of that in here.
Let him go, or I'll call the cops.
Go ahead, call them.
Do you feel that?
I could tear your shoulder right out of its fucking socket.
Do you feel it?
Now talk to me.
Alright, shit!
The last time I saw Ryan he was talking out of his ass
about making a move to the big time.
OK, so what did you say, Coops?
It's taken me a long time to turn my life around.
I don't want to book a ticket back to San Quentin
because of that fuck stick.
Who's his supplier?
I doubt he even exists.
Who would trust him to run a major drug operation?
I wouldn't trust Ryan to tie his fucking shoe.
Hey, uh,
the beers are on me.
You're the first dead man to buy me a beer.
Motherfucker!
Joe, it's Rita.
I'm gonna keep an eye on your new friend for a while.
Keep you posted.
Did you ever see an elk fuck a priest?
Not today.
You guys the welcoming committee?
Yeah, I'm the mayor.
I'm the governor.
And I'm in need of another drink.
May I have another delicious alcoholic beverage?
Yeah, sure thing, Lucas, just give me a minute.
I'll have the bartender's choice.
You came.
I did.
- Ooh-rah. - Ooh-rah.
Jesus.
Just a minute, Lucas.
- Ooh-rah. - Ooh-rah.
Hey, this bar is a historical landmark.
Take those shoes off, or get the fuck out.
I see you haven't lost your charm.
Well, these douchebags from over the hill,
they come in here and scuff up my floor with their shoes
on their way to the shitter,
and they don't even buy a fucking drink.
I swear to God if we had one of those Purge days
where all crime was legal, I'd take out about
20 of those Silicon Valley twats with my truck.
Amen to that.
Muchas gracias.
Hm.
It's good to see you, Vic.
It's good to see you.
So you guys get laid last night or?
- Well, not together. - No.
Why ask me up here to do something
you can handle yourself?
What are you not telling me?
There's a lot of things I'm not telling you.
But if you stick around, I might be willing
to share my secrets.
I'll stick around long enough to help you find Ryan.
But that's it, then I'm gone.
I'm going home, I'm going back to L.A.
Thank you.
Where are you going?
I'm tired, I'm just gonna relax.
You can chill out here, drink on the house.
You need some R&R, you know my place is only
two blocks away.
I can't relax with you around.
I know.
Yeah.
Seeing her again brought back memories,
so I went to clear my head.
The more I thought about her reasons for wanting me there,
the less they made sense.
I could have left then, I should have left,
but there's a big difference between knowing
the right thing to do and actually doing it.
I should never have come.
So Egg La Honda and a coffee
will be $6.50, please.
There you go.
Out of 10?
Good morning.
Where'd you sleep?
Out among the redwoods.
I'm going over the hill to run some errands.
You wanna join me?
No, I'm good right here.
Then can you come over in a couple of hours?
I've got something I need to show you.
Will you come?
Yeah, OK.
Sweet titty pie.
What do you think?
Let's see where he goes.
Beautiful, huh?
Dude, I've been shooting this coast for over a decade.
Hey, isn't this where that big drug bust just happened
somewhere around here?
Yeah, right over there.
The rumor is that some dipshit drove down on the sand
and got stuck while they were loading.
Some dipshit, huh?
He probably got himself killed.
He's camping just outside of Sam MacDonald.
Yeah, you're on tonight.
Make sure you come heavy.
It was my mother's.
He never took it off.
Wake up, Vic, Ryan's dead.
You need to go to the police.
Let's go, I'll take you.
I ain't going to the police.
Why?
Because what I'm about to do is illegal.
You knew, didn't you?
I suspected.
Bullshit.
You knew.
You knew, and you know who killed him.
Don't bullshit me, Vic!
You knew!
I knew.
That was your fucking plan all along.
To bring me up here and uproot my life
to help you kill the people who murdered your brother.
Is that so crazy?
Yeah, it's fucking insane.
We're civilians, we can't go around killing people anymore.
We made promises to each other back then.
That day.
You told me you'd always have my back.
I'm a Marine, not a mercenary.
Mercenaries kill for money.
This is about honor.
I don't kill at all.
Not anymore, can you understand that?
Then back me up.
Be here with me.
I can't, I'm trying to be a different kind of person.
I'm sorry.
You and me, we're a team, Blake Baker.
We're at our best together.
Yeah, and our worst.
San Gregorio.
Your coffee's ready.
What's your poison?
Lagunitas.
Okey dokey, smokey.
Were you working here Tuesday morning?
Sure was.
Did you happen to notice anybody
mailing anything unusual?
You mean, like, a necklace?
Yeah, yeah, that's it.
Do you remember who it was?
Yeah, don't know his name, but a hella good tipper.
I'm wondering if you could do me, like, a big favor.
The next time he comes in here,
would you call me?
No need to let him know we had this conversation, alright?
Whatever floats your boat, man.
Thanks.
Ryan was gone, and he wasn't coming back.
There was no reason for me to stay.
I did my part to help.
Come morning, I was going home.
Three, four, five.
Ah.
Who sent you?
I'm not gonna ask again.
Fuck you!
Vic.
Hello again.
Is anyone else here?
Nope, just me and the boys.
I'm gonna need your help.
You need a drink.
Listen to me,
I just killed two men.
Who?
I don't know.
I've never seen them before.
They slashed my tires, come on, let's go.
Gentlemen, would you mind holding the fort down for a bit?
Do I get to drink on the job?
I insist.
I'm in.
Feel free to take all the time you need.
And don't give him any more.
You still got it, Sergeant.
We should go to the police.
What, I was defending myself.
You have no idea what's going on up here.
Why don't you enlighten me?
I'll explain everything later.
Come on, we gotta roll.
What if someone heard the gunshots?
You were too far out of town
for most people to hear.
Those who could probably don't care.
Someone always cares when you fire a gun.
Even if they did, they'll assume someone
was firing off rounds in the woods.
Happens all the time around here.
What the hell is going on?
I'm guessing you've talked to Joe Cooper.
Yeah.
How'd you know?
Word is he's upped his game from weed to the harder stuff.
The guys we dropped off were a couple of burnouts.
They'd kill their own kids for a little bit of meth.
I guess Joe didn't like our conversation.
Let's see how he likes the next one.
How are the cops involved?
Joe's partner, Rita,
she's a cop.
Jesus.
Thanks for having my back.
Thanks again, guys.
Yeah, no problem.
I'll drink on the house whenever you need me to.
Good night, Tom.
Just set him here on the porch.
What?
It's not the first time he's slept out here.
There you go, buddy.
Sweet dreams.
Night cap?
I'd love one.
So what have you been up to?
How's your family?
You seeing anyone?
What's her name?
Joe Cooper just put a hit out on me.
I'm not interested in Joe Cooper.
He's a D-league operator, shit,
he's probably shitting himself right now as we speak.
All we have is the here and now.
The present.
Isn't that what you teach?
Teach people how to breathe, how to relax.
So just show me how you breathe.
Vic.
Goodnight, Vic.
Her name's Jessica.
She'll never know you like I know you.
Good night.
I didn't come to La Honda out of loyalty.
Vic was an addiction, and the longer I stayed
the more likely a relapse was coming.
Are you sure about this?
Trust me, they'll never know what hit them.
Then giddyup, motherfucker.
Shit.
Put your weapon on the ground.
Set it down, and we'll talk.
Motherfucker.
Let's get her in this.
What are the shovels for?
Joe and Rita require TLC.
Cover 'em up.
I thought we left this shit in Iraq.
Hey, Lucas!
It's not a hooker, Mom.
How would you like drinks on the house tonight?
Yeah.
The catch is you've gotta get your truck right now.
Where's the car and where do I tow it?
You're the shit, Lucas.
There's always something you miss
when you cover up a crime.
We covered up two.
It was only a matter of time before someone
started asking questions.
Hey, baby.
Jesus.
You alright?
Where were you?
Getting groceries.
Are you seriously walking around town
after what just happened?
I can take care of myself.
Then why am I here?
Just because I can take care of myself
doesn't mean I want to.
If last night repeats itself, you're the only one
I want backing me up.
We need to get out of here, Vic.
We need to leave La Honda.
I can't.
Why not?
I was there the night my brother screwed up on the beach.
I picked him up.
Goddammit, Vic.
What was I supposed to do?
He's my brother, was I supposed to leave him stranded?
Jesus Christ.
He stuffed his backpack full of weed,
and the cartel thought he was trying to run.
So I told him to take it back.
I killed my brother.
When were you planning on telling me this?
I didn't want you to leave.
The cartel is probably watching us right now.
If we lay low, this will blow over.
If we run, they'll suspect we're up to something.
No, we gotta get out of here.
We'll take our chances, we'll leave at night, let's go.
No!
Cartels, dirty cops, fuck 'em!
They'll either come after us, or they won't.
This is my home, and I ain't running from anybody.
Are you?
I assaulted Joe Cooper in public,
and now he and a local cop were missing.
We had a day, maybe two, before the cops
came looking for us.
And even if we someone flew under the police radar,
we still had the cartel to deal with.
The only sane thing to do was run.
We could stay in La Honda, start a life together.
Start a life together?
I haven't seen you in five years,
and you follow it up with this.
Start a life.
You're afraid, aren't you? You're gonna back out.
The things I did up here,
I did because I had to.
I don't want to be that way anymore.
What do you want to do?
I know a place
where we can go,
just lay low until things calm down.
Let's go.
Alright.
We'll go tomorrow.
Let's go tonight.
Let's go now.
Just let me stay another night.
Alright.
One more night.
Hey, Vic!
You got a minute?
Sure.
Who's that?
My neighbor Bruce.
I'll come with you.
No, no, it's alright.
Go raid the fridge for something to grill.
It's alright, he's harmless.
Be right up.
Hey, Bruce.
What's up?
Oh nothing, just wanted to make sure you're alright.
I'm fine, why do you ask?
Well, the thing is I could've sworn I heard gunshots
coming from your place last night.
Maybe some kids blowing off M-80s in the street.
What are you gonna do?
Sure it was, my mistake.
Anything else?
Yeah, I think so.
What's that?
Well, you see, I was out on my porch last night,
and I didn't see any kids in the street.
But I did see you and your friend tear out of here
right after those M-80s went off.
And you didn't get back until dawn.
Which made me wonder what was so goddamn important
that it took you all night to get done.
What do you want?
Well, Vicki, you and I never had any problems, right?
I'd like to keep it that way.
Right, and how do you propose we do that?
Enjoy your day, Bruce.
Hello?
Yeah, hold on.
Don't be too long.
Yeah?
Yeah.
I'll take care of it.
Two sixes.
Three fours.
Three sixes.
Bullshit.
Ha, fist your ass.
Thanks, Pat.
Lucas, my man, the Prius is looking great.
Thank you so much.
You know me, Vic.
Always happy to help a friend,
especially one who gives me free drinks.
You know what, free drinks on the house tonight for Lucas.
Really?
That's what I said.
Enjoy your night.
I intend to.
We are hindering our ability to defend ourselves.
This is only our second drink.
Doubles.
Look who forgot how to drink.
- Ooh-rah. - Ooh-rah.
Three threes.
Bullshit.
Did you say three threes?
Oh fuck.
This morning was amazing.
This morning happened under extenuating circumstances.
Hmm.
Bottoms up.
I'm pacing.
I'll take it if he don't want it,
the drink.
Drinks on the house tonight for Bruce.
Is anybody paying?
You'll be if you don't button your lip.
Why is Bruce drinking on the house?
Because he agreed to mind his own business.
What the hell? Drinks on the house for everyone tonight.
- Yeah, right on! - Yeah!
Greatest bartender in all the world.
You guys are amazing.
Vic,
part of me is glad I came here,
even with everything that's happened.
Maybe because of everything that's happened.
But I don't trust you.
And I really wish
that I could.
I was thinking about what you said the other day
about becoming a better person.
And I thought maybe we could become better people together.
I want to, I just don't know how to do it.
You're bullshitting me, right?
Blake, if there is a chance that
this could work between us...
I love you.
Fuck, you're the only one for me.
Let's get out of here.
You still got it, sergeant.
Vic never talked about it, but she'd been having
nightmares since the war.
Hey,
hey Vic.
It's OK.
You're alright.
You're gonna be OK.
I'm not going anywhere.
Fuck me.
Did you see the way she looked at me?
You don't like me much, do you?
I'm tapping out.
Give yourself a $100 tip.
For sure, Bruce. Get home safe.
Hey, do you need a lift?
Say what, man?
I said, do you need a lift?
Oh no, I'm just up the hill.
You sure? It's no trouble.
Fuck this hill.
I slept better that night than I had in years.
For a moment I forgot what happened over the past two days.
I was just...
happy.
This is nice.
I missed you.
I missed you, too.
On my way to get breakfast,
I almost convinced myself that I could make a life
with Vic in La Honda.
Almost.
Yeah, he fell over the rail
and broke his neck in the creek.
Bruce was pretty annihilated last night.
I heard they found two more dead bodies
thrown off a cliff by Pomponio.
Really?
Yeah, shit's getting a little Ted Bundy around here.
You came.
Be here with me.
This is my home.
We could stay in La Honda, start a life together.
Where's my breakfast?
I recall mention of an Egg La Honda.
I didn't get them.
Am I mistaken or am I detecting a bit of
a chill in your tone?
Oh no, you're not mistaken.
And here I thought I turned a corner with you.
Are you gonna tell me what's making you upset
or am I supposed to guess?
Your neighbor Bruce is dead.
How?
Oh, come on, Vic.
You must think I'm really stupid
that I can't connect these dots.
What are you talking about?
I'm talking about murder.
You gonna to deny it?
I was with you all night.
Which means you had someone else do it for you,
which means...
Go on, I can't wait to hear what it is
that you think I'm up to.
OK.
This was a murder made to look like an accident.
That's not something you trust someone else to do
unless they're a pro.
Why would I be associating with professional assassins?
Because you're a fucking drug dealer.
I'm a businesswoman who's diversified her interests.
Goddammit, Vic.
It's not like I'm slinging heroin or meth.
A little pot never hurt anyone.
Six people are dead!
Bruce was trying to blackmail me.
I was defending us.
You were protecting us, that doesn't mean
you go and kill him.
If I thought I could trust him,
he'd be breathing right now.
But Bruce is a wild card, and I can't trust
a wild card, not in this business.
Was Ryan business?
Ryan made his own bed, there was nothing I could do.
And that's why you're not worried.
Because you're working for them.
They're a necessary evil as we become the pipeline
from Santa Cruz to the city.
I knew that Joe and Rita would move against us
sooner or later, and that's when I realized I need
a partner to make this work.
I got big plans for us, baby.
I don't give a shit what your plans are, Vic.
I did not sign up for this.
Well, it's too late now, you're up to your neck in it now.
No.
I am done.
You're done when I say you're done.
Don't bet on it.
Oh, I'll bet my life on it.
Because we'll always have Fallujah.
What the fuck are you talking about? That was war.
Things happen in a war.
Oh, you don't have to convince me, I'm on your side.
But the courts might see things a little differently,
especially considering the efforts we took to cover it up.
Why are you doing this to me?
Did I ever hesitate to help you?
Did I ever question your ethics?
No.
You know why?
Because I've got your back.
And you'll have mine.
These past few days have proven you're the perfect man
for the job.
Hell, you're the only man for the job.
But I don't want it!
It's alright if you don't like the work.
I don't like it either.
But these next few years we'll make more money
than we ever dreamed of.
After everything that we have done,
what we've seen,
what we lived with every day,
we've earned this.
We deserve this.
Not like this.
The guilt will pass, trust me.
What about becoming better people?
We'll have time for that.
But we've got a lot of work ahead of us.
And I'm starving.
Can I get you an Egg La Honda?
I've lost my appetite.
I'll get you one for when it comes back.
Was last night business or pleasure?
Last night was love.
Hello?
Hey, it's Lindsey from the San G Store.
Is he there?
Sure is.
San Gregorio Store.
Hey there, is he still in there?
Roger.
Thanks.
Are we friends again?
You say you own me?
Well, I own you.
If I'm going down, I promise I'm not going down alone.
What's that supposed to mean?
I mean I'm gonna have a lot to say
if the police show up at my door.
Remember who I work with.
Who you work for.
How fast do you think they're gonna to sever ties
if the DEA starts sniffing around?
Or what if the county sheriff's office gets a tip
about the location of two buried bodies?
You'd be digging your own grave.
I'm digging it anyway.
This is disappointing.
I thought we had something.
Oh, you've made it very clear where we stand.
Well, let me be clear. Fuck you!
If I knew you'd be so sensitive,
I would have watered down my sales pitch.
You're poison, Vic.
And I don't want you in my life.
What a nasty thing to say.
Yeah.
So long, Vic.
Fuck.
Yeah.
I've got one last job for you.
San Gregorio Store.
Hey, is that him just leaving?
Yep.
Alright, thanks.
Thanks a lot.
No problemo.
Don't fucking move.
Turn around, slowly.
You got a phone?
- Yeah. - Let me see it.
Slow, slow.
Give me another.
You sure?
Give me another!
Pat, just,
I'll finish your drawer.
Just give me another drink, and get out of here.
Are you sure?
Stop asking me if I'm sure.
Give me another drink, and get the fuck out of here.
You're the boss.
That's right.
To Sergeant Baker.
Ooh-rah.
It was you or him.
Bar's closed!
Fancy meeting you here.
Hey, Vic.
Have a seat.
Put your hands on the table.
I was under the impression that we wouldn't be
seeing each other anymore.
What changed your mind?
I took that from a friend of yours.
How did you find him?
Does it matter?
I suppose not.
So what do we do now?
Now you tell me why you did it.
Does it matter?
Yeah, it matters.
Because I love you.
And I thought that maybe somewhere under all your crazy,
that you love me too.
I do love you.
You put a fucking hit out on me!
You're here to kill me,
and yet you claim to love me.
You forced my hand.
You forced mine.
No, you could have just let me go.
You know I wouldn't have said anything if
you just let me be.
You know I can't let you go.
Aah.
I'm sorry.
I always thought it was gonna end like this.
Only, I thought it was gonna be the desert.
We'll just have to settle...
for a redwood.
I missed the action.
I missed the fight.
Yeah.
Me too.
I'm glad I get to die with you.
I wouldn't have it any other way.
