Animal Kingdom

This thing is happening, with or without you.

You're breaking up with me?

You don't know what's going on here.

- You're using her, right? - Yes.

- There's 5 grand in there. - I can't take this.

You already did.

Your friend Vin just came to my house.

How does he know where I live?

Catherine's not your wife.

Maybe you just thought I'd never get out,

so you promised me shit you couldn't deliver.

I'm about to present you with an opportunity.

How'd you like to make some real money?

Catherine, you okay?

- Is he your boyfriend? - He's a brother.

If that happens again, you can call me.

Can you be my friend right now and not a cop?

So, the last people to inform on the Codys burned to death.

_

Damn.

This place hasn't changed since we were kids,

right down to the busted cameras.

So, you're saying a monkey could do what we just did?

Yeah. He goes in, he steals watches and iPhones and shit.

Sounds like Internet bullshit to me.

Then why did I see it on TV?

Well, how does he know what to steal?

Because he's got a guy training him to do it.

What if he sees something a monkey wants more than an iPhone?

Comes back to the guy with, like, a nut and a pencil?

I think you're reading into it too much.

It's just a good story. I wanted to tell it to you.

I don't know. I found it a little undermining.

You know what? Maybe you can get a monkey when you get your cut.

Yo, we clear half of what Baz thinks he will tomorrow,

I'm buying a new Ducati.

1299 Panigale.

And a boat. You?

I'm thinking maybe a condo

and some stocks through Smurf's guy.

Seriously?

Yeah.

It's called forward thinking, bud.

We're adults.

If we do this right, no one on the base knows anything's missing.

It takes months for the ATMs on the ship to get through all that cash.

Except for bad lieutenant here. He knows.

When does the cash arrive on the base?

Tomorrow. It's only there for a day.

And that's our window, when it's in one of these buildings here

before it gets put on the ship.

Not "one of these." It's Building 13.

Right.

Any alarms?

Yes.

The doors, windows?

- Mm-hmm. - Fire?

Yeah, why?

The sprinklers.

What about the perimeter of the base?

- Cameras and military police. - How many cameras?

A lot.

There's no blind spots in the fence.

And once we're inside?

No cameras, just patrols.

Oh, no problem then, just patrols.

It's just patrols.

What about the gates?

Civilian access here for all the businesses on the base,

including paintball.

All IDs run through NCIC.

So no criminal records.

Vehicle searches?

In and out, even for officers.

Paul, what's that gate right there?

That is the Navy nod to community relations.

That's a bike path,

cuts through the middle of the base.

Could we get the money moved to Building 15?

I can't do that.

You said most of the supplies for the ship are stored in 15.

Provisions, not cash.

If I start redirecting the money,

when they investigate, it leads right back to me.

There's gotta be a way.

Hell no! Absolutely not!

Lovers' quarrel?

Let's take a break. I'll put out lunch.

You cutting all your classes or just mine?

You wearing a wire?

I made a buy from an undercover cop.

Then this detective comes along and says

there's a way I don't get charged with a felony.

She talks about you, J.

And the danger you're in at your family's.

No, no, no, I was not in any danger until you got me to talk on a wire.

Josh, this detective has been investigating your family a long time.

Look, if I don't give her more soon, she's gonna know something's changed,

and I'm gonna go to jail.

That's your problem.

What if there's a way out for both of us?

You said they're planning something, right?

If I call this detective, and you tell her everything you know,

make it clear that you're not involved.

Then what?

Then they'll get arrested.

You'll get witness protection, and my charge will go away.

Do you think that it's that easy?

You don't know them.

They find out that I talked to the cops,

you have no idea what they'll do to me.

Hey. You're scared.

That's normal. I get it. You got a lot on the line here.

This thing is in motion.

Look, we can stop this.

- No, you don't want that. - Yes.

No, you don't. You don't want that.

You don't want that. Everything you told me about the ins and outs of the base,

you made it happen.

- Are you threatening me? - No, never,

because you want this.

- You want what's on the other side. - Screw the money.

No, it's not about the money.

Well, yeah, it's about the money,

but it's more than that.

It's pushing back.

It's going 130 instead of living your life,

filling out forms, taking shit from people

that should be taking shit from you.

Come on, I need the cash in Building 15 to get it off of the base.

That's not possible.

Okay, look.

What if it's not your idea?

Think about it.

What if you're just solving a problem?

We got company.

What's she doing here?

That's all we need, Nicky finding her father here with us.

- Go get rid of her. - Me, how?

She's a teenaged girl, baby. Figure it out.

- Hey! - Hey.

You looking for J?

No.

I was just gonna hang by the pool.

Can I still do that?

You can, or you can come with me to San Onofre.

- Yeah, hell, yeah. - Okay.

Whoo!

Paul's reconsidered.

I've got it covered.

He'll move the money?

Well, one of us needs to get on the base... today.

Really? And how is that gonna happen?

No one with a record can get past security,

and you don't want your fake IDs in the system before tomorrow.

Right.

But are you sure everyone in this family has a criminal record?

Tools only, right?

- No guns, like we agreed. - No guns.

I will not get caught smuggling guns on the base.

Right.

And the money will not be in the car when I drive it back home?

Like we agreed.

If the money's in that car when I get it back,

I will throw it in the base incinerator.

Absolutely.

Hey.

J.

We gotta talk to you.

Come here.

What's up?

Come sit by me, baby.

You got a criminal record, honey?

You sure?

Not even for jacking a stereo, nothing?

Scoring for Julia?

No.

Okay.

We need you to do something for us.

It's important.

The warning signs are loud and clear.

Guys like Pope turn violent.

You're in danger.

I know.

Listen, you're... y-y-you're not on your own.

You trust me, right?

Good. Good.

'Cause, um, I think I know somebody who can help you.

What's going on?

Hello, Catherine. Detective Sandra Yates.

What the hell, Patrick?

I came to you as a friend.

We need to talk. I'm investigating the Codys.

- This was a setup? - Just hear her out.

Just give us a minute.

Just listen.

I'm not saying shit to you.

Janine Cody killed your parents.

You think you can handle this?

Yeah.
