Memory of a Killer

Do you know about The Ferryman in Greek mythology?

Previously on Memory of a Killer.

He carries souls across the river.

You're a stone-cold killer just like me. (Grunts)

He takes a man from life to death.

We can all tell a lie,

but to be that lie 24/7 like a freakin' avatar.

I mean, that is, somethin' else.

I am amazed by people who can just shed their old skin.

Makes you wonder who else is wearing a mask.

I want a gun.

I need you to teach me how to use it.

I need to take control.

Dad? Who's Dutch? What-- What's done?

I know you work for The Ferryman...

and you're gonna take me to him.

- Hey. - What's with the 9-1-1?

My boss changed plans.

She's coming back early, so I had to move fast.

225 rounds, premium hollow points, 1280 fps,

no paper trail.

And...

And...? And what, Wesley?

Well, I-- I'm sorry.

What the hell? Get in.

What's this? Get in the back.

Stay outside.

Get over here.

Who's The Ferryman?

I don't know!

You work for him.

I told you,

I don't even know what he looks like.

He contacts you, doesn't he?

Not directly.

I get coded messages.

How many people does The Ferryman have working for him?

You must have a meeting place somewhere.

What's your name?

They call me Herc.

What's your real name?

You won't get anything from that.

How do I find him?

Kill me.

You would rather die than tell me?

You have no idea what you're dealing with.

If I talk, it's not just me who suffers.

It'll be my family,

my kids.

The Ferryman doesn't just kill you.

He erases everything you ever loved.

Everyone who ever mattered to you.

And he makes sure you watch it happen.

The Ferryman is a man...

and men bleed.

If you're The Ferryman's next target,

you're the one who's bleeding.

I'm gonna give you one more chance

to tell me how he contacts you.

Three...

Two...

One.

Someone will be by to clean up the mess.

Where would he take the bullets

once he picks them up from here?

I... I don't know.

I just once I heard him mention something

about an old power plant.

A power plant?

Yeah, um, out in the Bronx, but that's all I know.

I swear.

That guy just wasted his life for absolutely nothing.

No. I've heard stories...

horrible stories about The Ferryman...

the things he can do.

Yeah, right.

Wait 'til he finds out what I can do to him.

Hey, it's open. Come in.

Hey. Hi.

You brought the bagels.

I gave a dozen to the cops outside.

They still seem like they're doing a really good job, yeah?

Ah. They're great. 24/7. At least two of them at a time.

Oh, I've got the crib in the car.

I was going to set that up today.

Yeah sure. No, that's fine.

What's going on?

Nothing. Nothing. It's just...

it's, you know, it's Sunday, right?

It's our morning breakfast ritual

and she made other plans so...

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, it's just that...

- Hey. - Hi, Dad.

- Good morning. - Um... good morning.

It's the only time they have available.

It's okay, it's okay... it's just like,

I just feel like with everything going on,

you know, it important that we keep these rituals.

It's just yoga, you know. Not a big deal.

Yeah.

Yeah, it's just yoga.

Uh, well, I might as well just go to the gym then.

Stop. No, it's fine.

Seriously it's okay.

Okay.

You know what? No, I-- I can make you one.

- I can stay for a minute. - Okay.

You want cream cheese?

- Please. - Yeah.

I forgot to ask you--

- Oh watch it! - Oh my God.

Put your thumb up on the outside.

Okay. Dad, I know-- I know how to cut a bagel.

Oh my goodness, I can't watch you cut that.

See? It's done. It's okay.

It's fine. It's done. Um.

Yes.

What was up with that call the other day?

Yeah, you know I uh, upgraded my phone

and the font was just so small I kept misdialing people.

I think you were like-- you were like

the third one I misdialed.

Okay so, just make the font bigger.

Yeah, I know now. Now I know.

Right.

Okay, bye. - Bye. I love you.

- Bye. We'll see you later. - See you.

Enjoy the bagels.

We will. Thank you.

So how's everything goin' with you and him?

Yeah no we're... we're in a good place.

Yeah. Everything's back to solid ground so...

yeah.

- Good. Mm-hmm.

And how's everything else?

Right. Um, yeah, you know, a friend of mine actually

recommended a podcast which has been really helpful.

Yeah, it's... it gives insight

into processing trauma and-- and violence and all of that.

So, yeah no, I'm... I'm good.

Everything's really good.

Good.

Okay, well I'm gonna go.

I'll see you later.

Oh hey, I'm gonna put the crib together today.

What room do you want it in?

Oh! Just set it up in the office.

We'll figure it out later.

Okay.

Thanks, Dad! - You're welcome.

Cease fire!

I'm sorry about the timing.

No, it's okay. Thank you for meeting me.

Work's been crazy. This was the only window I had.

I know. I appreciate it.

I really want another lesson.

What's with the yoga outfit?

Wait. Does Jeff know you're here?

Look, I don't sleep anymore.

I don't eat.

I'm not going to sit in that house

feeling like there's something I can do.

I know. You're going through a lot right now.

I was a sitting duck once. My mom was, too.

I think you should talk with your family

about what you're going through.

What you're thinking.

My dad won't understand.

He's a copier salesman

who sits on his ass all day making calls

trying to sell people something nobody needs anymore.

My husband sits at home all day doing whatever he's does.

I'm not waiting anymore. Those days are over.

Sorry I...

I have to take this.

Yes.

Wait, when?

Okay.

Sorry to have to cut this short.

I just got some information about the man who shot at you.

I need to ask you to come with me.

Okay.

Nice hotel.

You think I'd pass for a guest?

With those shoes? No way.

I paid three hundred bucks for these.

You overpaid. Now focus.

Let's go over this again. Who's the target?

Name is Katherine Morton.

Arms dealer. She's staying here.

Supplies weapons to crime families, terrorists,

you name it.

The lady's old school too.

Only meets up in person, no emissaries, no middle men.

Never without protection.

She's got security around the clock.

They even sleep in the same suite as her.

Remember the arms deal is set for tomorrow.

Dutch wants us to take her out before the deal is done.

I remember.
