True Detective

You all right, bud?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Worried about the other kids?

How much longer do I have to go to school?

A while longer, sorry to say.

You got that camping trip coming up next weekend, huh?

That'll be fun, right?

Hey, you like your new kicks?

All right. Go on, pal.

Mom or Richard will pick you up.

I'll see you in two weeks, yeah?

Head up.

Strong.

Hey, I love you, buddy.

Now be proud.

Hey, Chad. Nice sweater.

I really like it.

Oh, and I like your shoes, too. They match your hair.

- It's great. - ( bell rings )

Ray: It wasn't an incident.

She was-- she was beaten.

Raped.

I'm sorry, I need to ask.

Your wife, was she pregnant at the time?

We think so.

You were trying a long time, right?

Mmm.

Your son was born nine months after what happened?

And they never caught the man who did it, correct?

No.

They never caught the guy.

And how is the relationship with your son?

It's good. It's real good.

I mean, he's a-- he's a true-blue kid.

You know? I have--

I bought us-- I got us these digital recorders.

You see? So we can send each other letters, like,

and express stuff, talk.

Book said that can be effective, so...

So why do you feel your visitation rights

should be expanded, Detective Velcoro?

Well, how about I raised him alone

for two months when she took off?

You know? It was me and him.

She comes back, she's talking divorce.

Did either of you request a paternity test?

No.

My son is my son.

They're gonna ask that question.

More rudely than I just did.

Look, you're not getting--

there's me and him and I'm his dad.

And I just need you to come up with something, all right?

You might have the wrong idea.

Why? You like paying taxes?

Just...

You were with LA Sheriff's Department

eight years before Vinci PD.

Anything there gonna hurt you?

No.

I welcome judgment.

Deputy Velcoro, right?

This filth hurt your woman.

We know this guy.

Tell me.

Sometimes everybody's not always on the same side.

Fine, it's business.

But this... no.

Fuck that.

Some things don't stand.

What do you know about it?

Frank: Fits the description, right?

My people know him. He's not with us.

Amphetamine freak.

Bragged about it, said, well,

matched your wife's account.

How do you know my wife's account?

This is only information, man.

Shit in the air.

I'm sharing with you.

I wanted to do this.

And now it's done.

That's it.

What do you want from me?

Me?

Yeah.

Not a thing.

Maybe we'll talk sometime.

Maybe not.

Your wife, she doing better?

- ( door opens ) - ( bell jingles )

Did you go to sleep?

No. Big day.

All the marbles.

Suits you better than you think.

Behold what was once a man.

You think I should have sprung for the country club?

Don't put on airs.

You don't need to fake anything.

You're better than that.

Frank: Caspere pitches at developers.

Russians in for five.

Somebody taking Osip through customs?

United Ambassadors are meeting him at the ramp.

Maybe I should have gone to the airport.

Don't want to look hungry.

Never do anything out of hunger,

not even eating.

What?

The fuck? An eight-part series?

Blake: Talks city corruptions, sweatshops, nothing on us.

Nothing, huh?

What's Osip gonna tweak from this?

That we're not buttoned down at the least.

Could put Tom or Ivar on the reporter you want, but I think--

No, get Velcoro.

He won't get carried away.

If this story gets play, there could be a state investigation.

But I'm saying you're not touched.

This place is built on a codependency of interest.

Worries me, you talking so stupid.

Everybody gets touched.

Steve: Hey, hey, I'm sorry.

Look, don't let that ruin it.

Just-- it took me by surprise was all.

You know? I didn't expect that.

Forget it. Don't worry about it.

Oh, come on, we don't have to stop, right?

You know, it's just I wasn't really ready.

I didn't think-- I mean, I don't know.

Do you-- do you like that?

Sometimes.

Okay. I just didn't think that most women--

you know, you, would-- I'm just used to--

you know, I mean-- have you done that a lot?

Let's not talk this to death.

Hey, I still got some time before I report.

Yeah, I've got to get ready for work.

Can we talk? Please?

I mean, forget this, what just happened.

You know, I think this is good, right?

Depends on what's expected.

Well, I wanted-- I mean, I thought,

you know, maybe we could talk about taking things forward.

Steve, you're a nice guy, but right now is not the time

you want to have this conversation.

Okay. But if you--

Can you get your stuff? 'Cause I gotta get going.

Yeah.

Sheriff's Department!

- Yo, what's this? - Hands! Hands! On your knees.

You running hookers?

Officer: Right there! Stay there!

- ( screams ) - Sheriff's Department!

Hands up! Get up! Get up!

- Clear! - All right, everybody out.

Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Come on.

Officer: Right here, right here. Let's go, move, move.

Officer #2: Clear in the back.

We ain't broke no law of yours.

Got IDs for these girls? Visas?

They American, that what you mean?

Who here is an American?

Say "I am an American" one by one.
