True Detective

Here she is, hon.

Thanks for lettin' me stay close.

Absolutely, just please don't tell anyone.

Sign here.

Be careful. It's hot.

("bury a friend" by Billie Eilish playing)

Alma: The doctor says we have to limit contact to 10 minutes.

He's still in withdrawal, so go easy on him, okay?

Alright.

Did you know Clark from before?

Otis?

Did you know him?

No... I knew about Tsalal,

but I didn't know the men there.

What did he want with you?

He was asking how I survived my injuries.

-(sniffles) -And how did you?

Fuck, man. Does it really look to you like I did?

Alright... where is Clark now?

I don't know.

Uh, you said...

you said that he was...

he was goin' back to the Night Country.

-I did? -Yeah, at the dredge.

-What did that mean? -I don't know.

-He was crazy as shit, man. -Alright, what else did he say?

-"She's awake." -Holden: "She's awake."

Said that a bunch of times.

He said, "I have to hide.

She's out there."

Creepy motherfucker.

Alright.

Let's talk about back then.

What happened on the day of your injuries?

Shit was 30 years ago.

What does it matter?

It matters. Tell me.

There was a cave-in.

Men died trapped in the ice.

We ran out for help...

but there was a blizzard.

I heard...

Otis?

...somethin'...

screaming, howling.

The other men started following the sound.

I tried to go after them and then...

nothin'.

-Nothin'. Wh-What does that mean? -I woke up in the hospital.

My eyes were burned, my ears, all gone to shit.

Alright.

Alright.

So...

this the cave system you were mapping?

Mm.

Can you point to where the entrance is?

It's right at the end of Bear Creek.

Here, but you can't go on your own.

The caves collapse.

That ice is like crawling on thin glass.

Yeah, well, you're gonna take us there.

I can't like this.

You're gonna be better in a few days.

That's not what I'm saying.

You can help me get well.

I can't get you heroin, you know that.

Your time's up.

Found the entrance. You sure you're up for this?

Yeah.

You wanna talk about it?

No.

Alright.

What's this?

That's your bag.

Please don't come back tonight.

-Wh-- No. Hold, Kayla, you can't-- -Please, just go.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, Kayla?

You can't just kick me out, Kayla.

This is my fuckin' family too!

Evangeline Navarro: So this cave is on Silver Sky property?

Liz Danvers: Yeah. They own the entire region.

How's Leah?

Eh, she's got a girlfriend.

So? I've had a bunch of those.

Yeah, I guess.

Girlfriend thing is okay. It's just...

Lee's turned into one of these crazy radicals

splashin' that black paint all over the place.

They're not crazy. It's the fucking water.

-I know, alright? I know. -It's poisoning people.

Evangeline: Is this it?

Oh, it, (sighs) it looks like somebody blew the entryway shut.

Because of course they fuckin' did.

-Fuck! -Hey.

Fuck this shit!

(melancholy guitar music playing)

crowd (chants): We were here before, gonna stay when you're gone!

We were here before, gonna stay...

...gonna stay when you're gone!

We were here before, gonna stay when you're gone!

all (chanting): Land back, water back!

We were here before, gonna stay when you're gone!

We were here before, gonna stay when you're gone!

We were here before--

Hello.

-Hey, Dad. -Hank Prior : Hey.

Hey, uh...

what, uh, what are you doin'?

Uh, just doin' some work on my truck. What's, what's goin' on?

Um... Kayla...

she thinks we need a little time apart.

-Hank: Oh. -And, uh...

I was wondering, if it's not too much trouble...

could I, could I crash with you?

Oh, uh... yeah.

It ain't exactly the Radisson, but come on over.

Peter Prior (over phone): Okay... great.

Probably, like, five minutes away.

Hank: Okay.

Okay.

-(call ends) -(phone beeps)

-(siren wailing) -(crowd chanting)

crowd (chanting): Land back, water back!

Evangeline: Hey, hey, hey! Move! Let him go!

Let him go now! Move back! Get down! Move!

Move! Hey, no! Break it up!
