"Here's what I don't get." "We paid you to put this stuff inside the house." "It's of no use to me out here." "we weren't contracted to move contracted. have you ever been contracted to drop someone's shit on the front yard?" " Marty." " Work with me." "They forgot the toy chest." "The what?" "Charlotte's toy chest." "The one I made her." "How is that a priority?" "Okay?" "Sir!" "I want you to give me one example." "We'd like you to take everything that we own and dump it on our front lawn." "Make sure you don't put anything on the inside of the house." "and I'll drop it." "Right." "Can't do it." "It's never happened." "there's a number on the receipt." " You can file a claim." " Thank you." "I will." "you're just gonna leave now?" " Yep." " Dick." " Great." "I guess." " Do you..." "Supposed to be in the fucking service business!" "Just calm down." " Why should I calm down?" " Because you're gonna scare the kids." "At least I didn't tell them their father launders money for a drug cartel." "right now?" "Marty!" "Wendy!" "well..." "Everybody grab a box." "Let's go. let's just go over what you're gonna say when somebody asks you why you're here." "please." "Pretty comfortable in my driveway bed." "please." "This is important." "What do you say when somebody asks what you're doing here?" "We bought a resort called the Blue Cat." "That's exactly right." "We bought a resort called the Blue Cat. your job is to get your boxes up into your rooms." " Okay?" " What's Wendy's job?" "Getting groceries." "you're free to go find a real job and help out the family." " How long are we here?" " Is your cartel after us?" "pal." "we're only here a few months." "Why did you tell us the real reason we're here?" " Because you're too smart for bullshit." " Please don't pander." "I'm not pandering. the safer you'll be." "Is it?" "Or is it 'cause you wanted us to turn on Marty here?" "I found bus fares." "Caitlin said I could live with them... ma'am." "Her mother drinks every day." "But you are laundering money." "get their money back into the bank so they can pay their taxes." "I got a job interview." " What?" "How?" " Technology." "I can Uber. and I can use Buddy's car out back." " Do either of you want anything?" " Yeah." "Maybe you could pick up some pistachio ice cream?" "please?" "shit." "There's no Uber." "if you can wait." "listen..." "I know this is a bad situation." "I get it." "But we're all in this together." "We're gonna suck it up." "Whining's not gonna help." "That's your pep talk?" "grab a box." "You gotta be kidding me." "I would've said you're witty and handsome." "You can't do that!" " Watch me." " What the fuck?" "we were all involved." "We should at least get our cut." "It's just fair." "You spent $900 on Jack Daniel's and fireworks." "life's not fair." "You'll be thanking me when I parlay that coin into a better roof over our heads." "You're missing the big picture." "Pops." "She just doesn't wanna waste it." "Mm. every tourist on that lake's gonna be too drunk or lazy to leave their Grady-White." "Black Cats and bottle rockets fetch double." "Lady Fingers and inch-and-a-halfers go times three." "And the Jack?" "Predilection for sour mash doesn't make a man stupid." "Doesn't inspire confidence either." "Point taken." "Hmm." "you're not your daddy." "That's right." "he would have hung you out by your ball sack already." "You want me to tell him that you're disrespecting me?" "Didn't think so." "Keep it shut about Byrdeman's eight mil." "You don't wanna be fighting the whole town for it." "I'm telling Daddy." "fuck that." "How long we gotta feel bad about what he did?" "Don't start with that again." "I know." "There's gotta be a statute of limitations about this shit." "You're damn right there does." "Fuck me." "There you go." "Good mornin'." "gas tanks are filled." " That's a waste." " Why's that?" "no demand." "I'll worry about that." "It's a good song." "Did you pick it?" "It's a Tuck specialty." "There are easier ways to take over a business than getting punched in the face." "shouldn't it?" "That you're a lousy fighter?" "I'm willing to do whatever it takes." "Okay?" "Long as it's in pleated pants." "we need to increase traffic." "Um... what do we have that no other place does?" "an investor that knows absolutely nothing about the Ozarks." " And the cheapest gas." " We don't have the cheapest gas." "and it's our siren song." "they get ferried around." "So that's not our bread and butter." "What we're after... are the families with the credit card debt." "they raise their gas prices during the summer." "yeah?" "We lower ours. to keep pace. and we offer a burger and a beer for five bucks with every fill-up." "We buy the burgers at bulk so we're still in profit." "the busiest day of the week... we raise our price ten cents while still keeping the burger deal." "we start the cycle all over again." "they win." "Are you high?" "No." "you look high." "Oh." "I didn't sleep last night." "maybe listen to one of your business lectures." "That might do the trick." "Burgers really five dollars with a fill-up?" "sir." "what'll you have to drink?" "Bud is fine." "Hmm." "You guys doing some work on the place?" "That's the word." "Thanks." "♪ When the leaves are fallin' ♪" "♪ In the cold November ♪" "pal." "different letter." "You owe me a job." " What?" " Am I speaking Greek?" " You owe me a fucking job." " How do you figure that?" "It's not tough." "You got me fired from the last one." "You got yourself fired... when you stole from our room under the guise of diligent service." "Goodbye." "I'm not leaving without gainful motherfucking employment." "Why don't you use the 20 grand that you took from me?" "That should supplement your welfare." " I'm not a welfare bum." " No?" "There's a million other places you could probably work." "Not right before season." "All staffed up." "My daughter got an interview in under three minutes." "I doubt she got a rap sheet like mine." "you say that with such pride." "Martin... wouldn't you agree that it's always a good idea to keep your friends close and your enemies closer?" "you told your uncles to kill me." "Do you remember that?" "I am." "Isn't it better having someone working under you who knows all your dirty little deeds? Dick and Harry about the eight million cash you're swimming in." "Someone could get ideas." "Wanna take a little wade in that big pool of yours." "when it's all said and done... you'll find all your money's gone... with an anchor tied around your torso." "In theory." "Follow me." " What are we doing?" " Deposit this." " What?" "Why?" " Just do it." " Okay." "Good." " Good what?" "just committed an overt act." "Wh-What the fuck's that?" "See this camera?" "It sees you." "And it saw you just make that deposit. the feds consider that an overt act." "Makes you an accomplice." "so do you." "Does that mean that I'm hired?" "you can be my guest." "a man from Osage Beach was hurt in a boating accident late last night near mile marker four off the Gravois Arm." "Henry Bullock sustained several injuries when his boat struck a commercial dock." "where he has been pronounced stable." "The boat was severely damaged as well." "where the St. Louis Cardinals look to extend their three-game winning streak as they begin a..." ""I will stand up for God!"" "Fucking kill myself." "but she still could've given you a ride." "I am just as pissed at you." "whoa." "she's Mom." "The first name business stops right now." "That understood?" " And I want you to go easy on her." " Why are you defending her?" "I'm sure you could tell us stuff." "bad things she's done that would poison us on her." "Charlotte... you're gonna be late." "Hurry up." "Get in there." "This all sounds good." "would you consider yourself a self-starter?" "sure. or suck the air out of the room." "thank you." " Yeah." "Could you start this weekend?" "please?" "dude." "right now." "Hey!" "You just got hit by a girl!" " Did I just see what I think I saw?" " Yep." "Good shot." "You watching porn?" "No." "Just kidding." "you have any questions about this morning?" "I'm good." " You sure?" "you can just ask." "Yeah?" "Okay." "Charlotte won't even call us Mom and Dad." "I've never hated the sound of my own name more." "You should've seen her when I told her I couldn't get that ice cream." "It was like Medusa." "I almost turned to stone." "Most kids wish that their biggest worry was ice cream." "But this isn't their biggest worry." "not theirs." "it's all of our worry." "You know this could mess them up for life." "and... and he's fine." "a little adversity isn't..." "is not so terrible." " Adversity?" " Yeah." "Did either of us grow up with any advantages? - or failing a class." " I'm not saying that." "Marty." "You can't just rationalize this away." "and that's fine." "and I'm not gonna fucking lose them." "come on." "Where are you going?" "Wendy." "The Blue Cat alone is not gonna cut it." "Yo." "ladies?" "Fuck happened to you?" " Nothing." " Chick beat his ass." "Three." "Byrde girl." "You just gonna let that little piece get away with that?" "Boyd."

"Stand up and hit me... step away from my boy!" "man." "Chill out." "We're cool." "Chill out." "What is it this time?" "too?" "he's fine." "He's basically passed out." "Hmm." "What you reading?" "huh?" "except this one's non-fiction." "It's about when he had to write the movie for Moby-Dick for some hot-shit director." "Got no fucking rest." "Almost killed him." "You know what I read?" "My phone." "Texts." "That's fucking it." "I was thinking." " Yeah? I could maybe..." "borrow some to go someplace?" "Like a vacation?" "Florida or some shit like that?" " Sure." " Yeah." "maybe." "where are you gonna go?" "I don't know." "Well..." "Here's what I'll tell you... we're gonna get a lot more than 20 grand soon." "Okay?" "Wyatt... it's..." "it's good to be one of the smart ones." "Remember that." "Okay?" "...this season for the tri-county region." "The visitor bureau estimates high demand for boats and recreational vehicles." "So make those reservations soon." "a word from our sponsors." "and I'm here to tell you about an innocent animal who's suffering and needs your help." "food and love." "instead of changing the channel" "right now." "Marty." "Not you." "I don't trust you'll care for these animals." "they'll die." "pledge with me now to save these animals." "Just a small act of kindness can help save a life." "we'll send the..." "but still far too young." "They would only endanger themselves and give away her presence." "As prey migrate away from the drying plains... must the lioness venture beyond her familiar territory... into the territory..." "Goddamn it." "What is it?" "Fuck." "Nothing." "Get some sleep?" "but I feel fine." "What is that?" "Do you hear that?" "Jesus." "Fuck." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Oh." "my God." "That's disgusting." "you didn't..." "you didn't hear vultures in our backyard?" "No." "No." " I wanna know how this got here." " Maybe coyotes?" "Mm-mmm." "Mm-mmm." "Someone would've had to..." "drag it and then leave it." "I'll see if the old man's got a wheelbarrow." " Morning." " Mr. Byrde?" "Yeah." "FBI." "Oh." " Have a second?" " How's it going?" " All right." " Sure." "Absolutely." "What can I do for you?" "Bruce Liddell." "The disappearance?" "What do you mean?" "Exactly what I said." "Neither he nor his fiancée have been heard from in almost a week." "God." "When's the last time you two spoke?" "Um... uh..." "I think." "I'm not sure." "huh?" "11:47 p.m." "that sounds right." " That right?" "could be." "You spoke for a minute and 12 seconds." "What'd you talk about?" "we didn't." " You didn't?" "he left a message." "Uh... he said a lot." "maybe drunk. and I..." "I'd told him that... that I..." "I wanted to dissolve the partnership." "so maybe that's..." " Why'd you dissolve the partnership?" "I thought that..." "that he was maybe doing something illegal." "I don't know." "And why did you think that?" "'Cause he was..." "He just started acting different." "and..." "I caught him making a couple of calls in Spanish." " Do you know Spanish?" " I don't." "yeah." "and... and he was evasive." "uh... and... hermit crab." "isn't it?" "Dad's a drug dealer." "then I'm a user 'cause I take Advil." "Watch." "Those are Dad's coworkers." "Just stick with porn." "Seriously." "a little bit off." "honey." " Oh." "Thanks." " Hello." "FBI." " FBI?" "What's going on?" " Yeah." "We believe your husband's partner was murdered." "my God." "You said "disappeared." What makes you think he was murdered?" "How'd Bruce take it when you dissolved the partnership?" "like I told you." "So... that's why you emptied your bank accounts and left Chicago?" "sir." "I have a business opportunity here." "What are you implying?" "I think the two of you should know that Bruce was working with us... as an informant against them." "What?" "Who's "them"?" "Wendy." "You know." "Know what?" "shall we?" "right?" "the running." "Aren't you both tired?" "These people are murderers." "They skin people alive... or if... if they want someone to just... disappear..." "they dissolve their bodies in acid." "We all know the cartel killed Bruce." "Who's next?" "You?" "Your kids?" "You need to tell us what we want to know." "I don't know anything about Bruce's involvement with any cartel." "We can get you in witness protection." "Keep you safe. and... and we made a choice to move our family to... to a more peaceful place." "Did you have any idea he was working for them?" "What do you think?" "I'm so sorry." "I gotta get the rest of this shit off the yard." "You okay?" "I'm getting used to betrayal." " What are you doing here?" " Working." " What's it look like?" " I didn't hire you." "Take it up with Marty." "Would you look at that?" "Shit's so clean you can eat right off it." "I don't hire criminals." "all I've seen is a hard worker." "a series of off-season break-ins in Osage Beach." "Langmores." "a chop shop in Camdenton doing 15 cars a week." "Langmores." "I'm sensing a trend." "good. 'Cause I haven't even gotten to the aggravated assaults yet." "she doesn't work for the Blue Cat." "She works for me." "maybe you wanna talk to me next time." "just like businesses." "she is gone." "That there what you meant about another revenue stream?" "Pumping gas on a dock?" "Can't say as it makes me wish I'd gone to business school." "How can I help you?" "Don't tell me you don't recognize me. all full of ideas on how I should go about my business." "again?" "A silent partner?" "Secret Santa?" "It was... some kind of investor." "that's right." "You're funny." "son." "that you had organic pistachio ice cream." "Okay." "all-all I see is mint." "Please tell me you have some in the back." "no?" "No?" "Um... you made a mistake." " I drove an hour and a half to come to this particular supermarket because one of your employees told me that you had pistachio ice cream!" "I don't think you do!" "is..." "is mint the same as pistachio?" "ma'am." " Huh?" "Is it?" "Is it?" "it tastes nothing like pistachio." "and the other has nuts." "Can you not tell the difference?" "Because I sure as hell can!" "She was calm." "Like her hubby." "They were unified in their story." "I..." "Still not certain it was the right tactic." "they won't be watching the back." "And that's presumptuous." "I was going to stay." "and that is presumptuous." " Breakfast tomorrow?" " Too busy." "right?" "Because I don't wanna be seen in town with a fed? what?" "He's too insecure to eat breakfast by himself?" "Take care... agent." "Wendy!" "I don't wanna hear it." "I've had a shit day." "What was shitty about it?" "Marty." "I accosted a kid at a store over fucking pistachio ice cream." "it's not okay." "It's not okay at all." "And I..." "I'm not gonna be a victim over everything that happens." "Especially since I'm responsible for most of it." "what'd you say?" "What the hell are they doing so near our house?" "That's probably because Charlotte punched the older kid in the face." " What?" "When?" " Yeah." "I think. it doesn't work unless you tell me what's happening." "Okay." "Just did." "They're trying to intimidate us." "Dead animals pop up." "Now they're stalking us. um..." "I think yesterday." "Marty." " Okay." " Yeah." "right?" "you're right." "Hello?" "Sam?" "Sam?" "Hey!" "Welcome." "Thank you for... coming." "Oh." "That's a greeting." "just..." "Never mind." "Is there a problem with the house?" "Is it Buddy?" "Is he just..." "I was wondering if you might want or..." "or need some help?" "selling houses?" "no." "Of course not." "But maybe in the office." "I..." "I could help decorate the homes." "I'm good at that." "so... so let me level with you." "You've seen my inventory." "My niche is sort of rundown spots off the water." "And I was lucky to list Buddy's house. and she's... pretty territorial." "So..." "And here's the two-two pitch." "Got him with a short." "Hernández up with it and throws him out." "Another one-two-three inning for the young..." "and I'm here to tell you about an innocent animal who's suffering and needs your help." "shelter..." "Let's get some fresh air and figure out how to wash more money." "all right?" "dickhead." "Come on." "Bruce?" "What are the rules to this game?" "I don't know it." "A whole new game." "pal?" "buddy?" "I tag up?" "Do I steal?" "I need to play a little something different." "Tuck!" "buddy." "Fuck!" "♪ You always won ♪" "♪ Every time you placed a bet ♪" "♪ You're still damn good... ♪" "he said." "For the Lord rejoices to see the work begin." "To see the plumb line in Zerubbabel's hand." "God was telling Zechariah... to not worry what folks may think." "He would be there to help build it back up." "He said..." "Small beginnings can bring down mountains." "mighty mountain?" "you will become level ground." "And then..." "then he will bring out the capstone to the shouts of 'God bless it.' if you'd all open up your hymnals to page 139... let us join together in song." "Thanks for checking on me the other night." "What's that?" "When I was aspirating a lung." "Wasn't that you creaking around upstairs?" "Not checking on me?" "Sorry." "Buddy... any chance you could start throwing on some trunks?" "You got people in the house now." "Kids." "No." "Nice chatting with you." "The... the kitchen's right around here." "There's such a great feel to it." "It's the perfect starter home to raise a family." "hi." "Um..." " Hey." "who's the actual listing agent." "And they just popped in while I was setting up." "can I talk to you for just a second?" "Mm-hmm." "I'm sorry." "I just..." "I thought my furniture would be more useful here than in storage." "it's... it's great." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "I know how to sell the idea of a happy family." "Mom's gonna be pissed." "the kitchen is..." "is right around here." "Mm-hmm." " What?" " You're pretty." "You ever listen to old-school hip-hop?" "shit like that?" "but I will start." " It's my favorite swimming cove." "Okay?" " Okay." "you guys have fun." "one second." " Yup." "huh?" "all lit up." "maybe we don't even need it." "Look at all these people." "We're not even in season yet." "What do you think?" "You like the sign?" "Sure." "Sure"?" "That's it?" "What am I supposed to say?" "you did not have to take my money if you didn't want it." "I know." "Okay." "Don't get my hopes up." "we just..." "We needed a change." "And it's... it's a nice resort." "that's for sure." "they're great." "what's not to like?" "I know." "I..." "I know." "I have to call you back." "Let me call you back." "hey!" "Shh..." "Shoo!" "Fuck! it'll be you the vultures are picking at." "It's melted." "it'll be in the freezer when you want it." "uh... it's the... only bluff you couldn't fake." "You're still the same." " What is that?" "Is that Bob Seger?" " It is." "Do you even like Bob Seger?" "not anymore." "It's not enough." "It's not enough." "What's not?" "I gotta be something else." " Like what?" " I gotta man up." "I gotta..." "I gotta be something else." "It's..." "It's not enough." "Not in three months." "I gotta..." "I gotta take the fight to them." "I gotta get dirty." "I gotta... can you just dance? and don't stop."
