Hightown

Previously on Hightown...

My name's Jackie Quinones,

National Marine Fishery Service.

I'm the one who found Sherry Henry on the beach.

And I went kinda crazy after that.

Hi, I'm Jackie. I'm an alcoholic.

So you want me to be your sponsor?

- Yeah. Would you do that? - Yeah.

I told you about the body on the beach.

I need to look into that.

Sherry Henry told me so much about you.

Who do you think put your cousin Jorge in Concord?

How's your baby mama holding up?

- It's gonna be 300. - State Police.

Just got you for prostitution.

- I just wanna talk to you. - I'm not a snitch.

I talked to Frankie's baby mama.

She gave me a description

of a huge black male from somewhere else.

That's Frankie's lieutenant, Osito.

I need to know if any cops been coming around.

- Yeah. - I want you to get close.

I know about Sherry, Junior. I know you dumped the body.

I can't help you if you don't talk to me.

I don't want your help.

The shit that Junior took

was a mix of dope, carfentanyl.

First case on Cape Cod.

I think I got a line on Frankie

and Osito's supplier, Wayne Grassi.

The carfentanyl connection.

Y'all wanna tell us where you keep the stash?

Fuck off.

State Police! Hands up!

I will help you, too, if you play ball.

I'm listening.

You heard what uncle said.

People here are soft. We're gonna take over.

Ray Abruzzo, you tell that peckerwood I don't forget.

You keep pissing off the brass,

and one day, they're gonna give me your job.

Renee Segna told me how you've solicited her

for a sexual relationship.

You're suspended without pay.

We're dropping the charges against Frankie Cuevas.

We can't have this coming out at trial.

I wanna help.

Fishery Service liaison to the Narcotics Unit.

I'm gonna make sure you spend

the rest of your life in a cell.

No, 'cause you didn't. I would tell you.

I'm a good friend, I would tell you.

So are we doing this or what?

- See ya, man. - I don't know.

Come on.

I mean, I'll do it, I don't care.

Guys, this is stupid. I mean, it's freezing. It's--

What if we promise not to tell anyone your dick is small?

Yeah, no, it's-it's not that. It's just cold.

- Okay, all right. - Bro.

I'm wasted, I'm doing it. Don't wuss out.

I'm not wussing out.

Okay, let me-- let me check Sharkster, okay?

We're, like, totally getting eaten by sharks.

No, I think we're good, actually.

There's only been, like, two sightings all of October.

Shark season's almost over.

All right, well, I'm going in, so...

Fuck it, dude.

Yeah, fuck it.

You ready?

Oh, wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait. Wait.

Let's take a picture.

Of course.

- All right, good? - Let's do it!

Whoo!

I still don't see anything.

Be patient.

I don't wanna be patient. It's fucking Halloween.

It's only three o'clock.

Yeah, three o'clock on a Halloween.

That's, like, five o'clock on a regular day.

What are you, 12?

What do you care about Halloween for?

We're gonna tag some sharks, and then we'll go home.

Why are we obsessed with sharks all of a sudden?

Because they're beautiful, majestic creatures, Jackie.

Oh, jeez.

Administration wants all the great whites geo-tagged

before our next tourist season.

You're getting paid to be out on the boat either way.

What do-what do you care what you're doing?

Come on, Ed.

Please?

Well, Linda did ask me to stop

and get some Baby Ruth, and you know

CVS will be crazy if I go too late.

It'll be crazy.

Let's wrap it up!

Yes!

You got any big plans for Halloween?

Let me guess, you're gonna be a Goblin Pussy?

You get it?

You're gonna be gobbling pussy?

And we're done. Hello? HR?

Fine. Whatever. Like you're so PC.

Hey, uh, seriously...

...you gonna be good tonight?

'Cause, you know, I just can't--

I-I can't do that again.

I'm gonna be good. I promise.

You don't have to worry about me.

I promise.

Okay.

Hey, Chief. Happy Halloween.

You expecting any trouble tonight?

Nah, tourists are gone, everything's boarded up tight.

I think I got it under control.

All right.

Jack, take it easy tonight.

So yeah, I got 50 days today.

And that's a fucking miracle.

I mean, I don't--

I don't come from people who get sober, you know?

I don't think I even knew what that word meant.

I mean, my dad's been fucked up my whole life.

Um, but he's cool.

He is who he is. This isn't about him.

I don't have to take his inventory anymore, right?

Um, yeah, but for me, sobriety's been good.

It's been good.

The last 50 days have been good.

I mean, it's been hard, you know.

Most of you knew Junior.

Um...

you know, and I feel like...

...I feel like I could've done more,

should have, you know.

You know, he was-- he was like my brother.

But he was also one of us.

Um, but here's the thing.

I don't think he'd want me to dwell, you know?

I think he'd want me to--

I think he'd want me to keep moving.

Because you're-you're either

moving away from your last drink

or towards your next one.

Or something like that, I forget.

I don't know. Vince told it to me.

He's always giving me lectures.

Um, yeah, so...

anyway, thanks.

Thanks for my sobriety, and thanks for my life.

It's all I got.

You sounded real good up there.

Thanks.

But how you really doing?

Ah, Jesus. Here it comes.

You get yourself a sponsor yet?

Did you start your fourth step?

You know I got shot?

And I'm working two jobs now? I'm busy.

Ain't nobody in P-Town working one job.

Me and my husband have five jobs between us.

Oh, my God, I love you, but have you ever considered

Codependents Anonymous?

I've been a proud member of CoDA for 17 years.

Of course you have been.

I'm sorry. You're perfect and I suck.

I have somewhere very important to be, and I gotta change.

Ha. Never change, baby.

Hey, girl.

I need a drink. I'll be right back.

Hey! Fred!

Jackie! How you doing, girl?

You know, rent is due tomorrow.

Thank you for shopping.

All right, cool.

Mrow! Richard Simmons!

Yes, please.

I haven't been touched in months.

Oh, come on, I don't believe that.

Look at those buns.

Oh, don't tease me, girl. These buns are tired.

Listen, baby. Can you do an eight ball?

- For you? - Yeah.

Well, since you're such a good customer, that'll be $300.

Hey, look, can you give me your number

for when this place closes up?

It's gonna be a long, cold winter,

- you know what I'm saying? - Yeah.

I know, it's gonna be fucking miserable.

Here, call me.

All right.

Yeah, and this is where Daddy catches the bad guys.

Uh-huh.

- And break room over there. - Oh.

Office down this way.

Ah.

Okay, Sergeant Alan Saintille.
