DARRYL: We're not staying here.

Why the hell would you take him to that school?

RAYNA: The moment you lost our life's savings, and the house,

and everything we built,

you gave up every right to make any decisions for this family.

I may have lost it, but need I remind you,

I built it in the first place, and I'll do it again.

You know what, Darryl?

I spent the last twenty years

living every single day for you and the kids.

I quit school to raise a family.

Never pursued my own career because you said

you were going to take care of us. And now...

I have nothing.

So, you go ahead, you fix it.

I'm going to take Myles to school

until I figure out what the hell I'm going to do!

Rayna-

Go!

(Horn honking)

(Country music playing softly over radio)

(Door opening)

Your mom's outside waiting.

Do I have to?

Yeah.

You okay, Dad?

Yeah, I just need to get to work,

so I can make some money, so we can get out of here.

Are we staying here long?

Hell, no.

You better get going.

(Country music playing softly)

Have a great day.

Don't bother taking off your coat.

Here's your coffee.

You need to go see Rowan about a job.

Who?

Rowan - my son, the Chief.

He'll set you up.

(Chuckling) That's real cute.

Don't patronize me.

You need to put your big boy pants on and go get a darn job.

I've got it figured out. I'm good.

Don't look like it to me.

Band office is up the road,

left at the church.

Well, get going. I got stuff to do.

And make sure you bring my mug back.

DARRYL: Thanks, Molly.

(Indigenous singing)

(Henry speaking Anishinaabemowin:)

(Rock music playing)

The conference call with the Minister is at four, Tuesday.

I booked your post-election golf trip,

and I took care of Buckets.

You won't be seeing his name on the ballot.

ROWAN: Don't need to know the details, bro.

Nothing a case of beer couldn't fix.

And I've saved the best for last.

Hit me.

We got a 50K donation for the youth centre.

Completes the financing.

Right on!

Where'd that come from?

From a band member living overseas - Mitch Nanibush.

Owns a company called Nanibush Satellite Industries.

Never heard of him.

Well, let's make sure, Nanibush,

his name is all over the place.

(Knocking)

Hey, Brother-In-Law.

I was expecting you.

Uh, Nathan, this is my sister Rayna's husband, Darryl.

Hey, look I can see you guys are busy,

but maybe have a drink sometime.

A drink... I just got out of detox, Bro.

I'm on the red road.

Oh, I am so sorry. I apologize.

Just kidding. Jeez...

Molly said you need a job?

So, let's do an interview.

So, this isn't bad, huh?

It's not exactly Sinclair.

Pretty sure they don't have a robotics team.

It's just temporary.

Just try and make the best of it.

Okay? I'm going to figure this all out

and we'll be home in no time.

Promise?

Promise.

Hello. You must be Myles and Rayna.

Hi.

I'm Allison Sevenet, the Principal.

Hello.

Tara has told me all about you.

Tara?

Your sister.

We're good friends.

And Myles, wow, your Sinclair Academy transcripts

are very impressive.

Thank you. Miigwech.

Let's get the paperwork started.

(Rock music playing on radio)

Hey, Lyle.

(Speaking Anishinaabemowin:)

No, Lyle, it wasn't part of the deal; it was the deal.

We put the notice in the newsletter remember.

Hey! We paved roads and we got a health centre with that deal,

and everyone got a freezer.

(Sighing)

(Muttering)

What was that all about?

NATHAN: Last term, Rowan made a deal with a logging company

for 10,000 acres.

We paid for a whack of infrastructure with that money,

and as a bonus, we threw in a freezer.

You wouldn't believe the chirping.

And it didn't pan out?

Most people use them as garbage lockers,

so the bears can't get into them.

There's bears here?

They're sleeping, dude.

Our curriculum follows

the provincial standard.

We've adapted the pedagogy to incorporate one hour

of our language in each day.

That's wonderful. I've been trying to learn,

listening to CDs

and my Dad's radio show.

That's great. Henry is amazing.

What about you, Myles?

Do you know any Ojibwe?

(Speaking Anishinaabemowin:)

Holy crap!

What? You've been listening to those CDs for months.

Surprised you're not further along by now.

Thanks.

Yeah.

Looks like he'll do just fine.

Shall we go and introduce you to your new classmates?

Yeah, sure. Why not?

Okay.

?

ROWAN: Mike. Edward.

My brother-in-law Darryl Keetch.

Gentlemen.

ROWAN: These guys are Band Councillors.

This better be good.

I rescheduled a massage to be here.

It's your father-in-law, my Dad Henry.

Pop, this is Rayna's husband Darryl.

Hi.

(Speaking Anishinaabemowin:)

Pleased to meet you.

Ah, does he speak...

English? Yeah, but he won't speak Settler.

Ten years of residential school caught up to him,

now, it's all Nish.

Nish?

Like "Anishinaabe".

Ah, got it.

Thanks.

Come on.

I'll show you how to bait a hook, work a tip line.

Hello?

Rayna!

Hi!

I'm Rhonda. This is my place.

Oh.

Hey,

sorry 'bout your ceremony. It was so nice...

till Molly made a scene.

Must be fun living with her, eh?

Yeah.

My auntie, we call her "Bird". Her real name's Brenda.

Her three kids went missing in the Scoop.

Each one of them,

right from the hospital,

every damn time.

That's terrible. Did they ever-

No, nothing.

She drank herself to death.

Never drank a lick before that.

Broke her heart.

That is so sad.

Yep.

Sure wish Molly would lighten up,

seeing as how it worked out for her,

be grateful that you've come back.

Here's hoping.

I hope things work out with your hubby there.

Huh.

Oh.

Coffees are on the house.

Thanks.

"Keetch"? I don't recognise that name.

Where you from? Zibi?

It was Keetchimong, but I changed it to Keetch

when I became white.

What?

Guys, I'm kidding.

(Chuckling)

You got us, man.

So, are you status?

Nope.

No shit.

That makes no sense.

I didn't need one.

I'm self-made,

no strings attached, no handouts.

You know being status is about our rights?

The shit our parents fought for,

what they went through.

Sure, if that's what you want to believe.

Holy, you are white.

(All chuckling)

Hey, we gonna do this interview?

This is the interview, dude.

Okay.

So, what do you do? Business-wise.

Do it all - investments, mergers, start-ups.

I build companies.

What kinds of companies?

Import, export,

transportation,

even had a cannabis distribution company

with a couple of dispensaries.

So, how'd you lose all your money then?

It's the rez, man - everyone knows everything.

Hey, look.

I didn't lose my money. My money was stolen.

Those are two very different things.

(Chuckling)

Yeah, we all know how that feels, eh, boys?

(Chuckling)

Hey, you think we could do this interview somewhere else?

I'm freezing.

Step inside our boardroom.

?

Hey!

Rayna!

Miigwech. How are you?

I have no home. I have no money.

I'm sharing a room with Darryl.

We're all in Molly's small house.

Everyone knows my business.

It's- it's really disconcerting.

That's why I live in town.

This place is a fish bowl.

I don't wanna sound all complainy, but Molly is...

Next level passive aggressive?

Pretty much.

I thought she'd be happy that I'm back home, but...

it seems like she hates me.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

Look.

RAYNA: "I feel like the luckiest mother on the planet"?

"My baby girl is at home, where she belongs."

What the hell?

"I have so much in common with my girl".

Wow. Really?

See?

She just... doesn't have the tools

to show you herself, but believe me,

as her daughter, I can tell you,

she loves you.

She just never really dealt with her shit.

Wow.

Maybe you should spend a little less time there.

There's a job board at the Band office.

There might be something there for you.

Maybe.

Tara, someone just left this girl.

Unless you need a business consultant

or an investment specialist, I don't know what I can offer.

You know what?

I think we can find something for you to consult on.

Say, man, you want a beer?

Ah, no. I'm not much of a day drinker.

But... I do have these.

What's that?

Edibles. Want a gummy?

Mmm, candy.

Don't mind if I do.

All right, man, tell us more about

the weed distribution industry.

What do you want to know?

Come on, come on, stay with me.

Here's the Naloxone.

Call an ambulance.

Tell them we got another overdose.

Come on. Come on.

NATHAN: This is nice.

Yeah,

it's big and fruity...

kinda smooth and silky,

almost... opulent.

(All chuckling)

I took a sommelier course a few years back.

(All chuckling)

I don't know much of what goes on around here,

but I'm surprised you guys haven't jumped on

the weed train yet.

We're working on it.

We're in the process of drafting our cannabis law,

and then we have to have a vote.

There's a lot of steps.

Are there regulations on the reserve?

NATHAN: The sale of cannabis requires a provincial permit

under Federal Law, and...

we have inherent rights

that neither government wants to acknowledge.

If you do it right, like legitimately,

you can make money hand over fist.

Be nice to have a piece of that.

We don't have the start-up capital,

and there's no way to convince members to invest in cannabis.

If you have the profits,

the jobs are there, guaranteed.

That'd be nice.

It would also help put the whole freezer thing behind me.

But where do we get the capital? How much do we need?

About $200,000.

(Chuckling) It's not happening.

What if I came up with it?

You just told us you were broke.

Yeah, I'm broke, but I can consult on your behalf

and connect you with an investor who'd be all over this.

And what do we do with the money?

You open up a dispensary.

You think you can close this?

Ah, give me a sec. I'll find out.

(Camera shutter clicking)

MAN: Well, I hope they lock him up and throw away the key.

DARRYL: Took me for six mil.

Shit man, I am sorry.

So, listen, I'm staying at my wife's reserve,

and the chief is my brother-in-law,

and he wants to get into the weed game.

Like, an Indian Reserve?

DARRYL: Yeah. It's a First Nation.

They call it Beezee.

Okay, okay. I'm intrigued.

First dispensary on the reserve.

No regs, no red tape. Huge return.

Interesting. Interesting.

MAN ON PHONE: What are you thinking?

Well, I need 200 K from you and I've got about $150

in furnishings in storage. All set?

Okay. You turn that around in three months

and you have a deal.

Ninety days? Okay.

It's a five banger, trust me.

It's a sure thing.

Okay, so, I'm heading to Cabo this evening.

You give me a guarantee on your end

and I'll make it happen by the end of the day.

Okay. Got it.

Yeah. You'll hear back from me by the end of today.

(Indigenous drums sounding)

(Indigenous singing)

?

(Indigenous singing)

?

(Indigenous singing)

?

(Indigenous singing)

Hey, shit-head?

I'm talking to you, city boy.

Are you deaf? I'm talking to you.

Mind if I take this?

(Indigenous singing)

Can we trust this guy?

He just told us he was broke.

(Door opening)

I locked down the seed money.

Oh, yeah!

They want five times return on their investment.

You guys put up the security.

This is a lock.

Okay, look, were interested.

We'll bring it up at the next council meeting.

That's not going to work.

Why not?

They need an answer by today.

Well, we have quorum here.

Nate, is there anything else we need to consider

before passing a BCR?

Well, ah... (Exhaling sharply)

We can use the investment timeline

as a reason for a quick decision.

And if you guys are in,

I'm sure the other councillors would be on board, right?

Agreed?

Agreed.

Wait, what? That's- that's it?

You can do that right now, right here?

We have the rights to determine the laws of our community.

And besides, once people see the cash flow,

these people will be kissing my feet. Am I right?

Let's frame the resolution, bud.

(Clearing throat)

Whereas, under section 7.2-A,

of the Binesizhaabose - Beezee -

First Nation Land Code,

Beezee First Nation, may make laws

for the development, conservation,

protection, management,

use and possession

of the Beezee First Nation-

Move it along, Nate.

The Beezee First Nation

hereby enacts this cannabis law.

All those in favour?

All those against?

Be it finally resolved, the Beezee First Nation cannabis law

is hereby adopted by Chief and Council.

Welcome to the party, Darryl.

The jobs yours, if you want it.

What? Just like that?

You came in and asked, didn't you?

Are you offering me the job because Rowan's my brother?

You're the only applicant. It's been posted for months.

Oh.

The Lodge isn't that busy this time of year,

but I'm sure you'll find something to do there.

It's a training program,

skills development. Take advantage of it.

I'm not sure it's really me.

Okay. If you change your mind, let me know.

Thanks.

ROWAN: Go ahead. Take it.

DARRYL: Uh, aniin.

You want to say, "chi-miigwech".

Chi miigwech.

Doesn't he want a ride?

No.

Okay, well, as soon as you guys secure a space,

I'll broker the deal for the gear.

You're going to run things, right?

Uh, yeah. Okay.

Oh, ever cute.

Hey!

Hey.

So, did my son look after you?

Sort of.

Let's just say we made a mutually beneficial agreement.

MOLLY: Ah, what does that mean?

That means, that Rowan's going to win the election

and I'm going to make a lot of money for us and the rez.

As long as you don't drag the reserve into bankruptcy.

Well, you see, Darryl, Molly's got pull.

We'll be out of your hair in no time.

Ah, don't be silly, happy to have you here.

Aren't you happy for Darryl?

I got a job, too.

MOLLY: You did?

Mm-hmm. I'm going to be managing the Beezee Lodge.

Really?

Well, I hope you know which end of the toilet brush to hold.

Hey, so, uh, did you catch the fish yourself?

Uh, no. I got that from Henry.

I hope you know how to skin a fish 'cause I ain't touching it.

Hot dogs it is, then.

Hey, honey.

Oh my God, Myles, your face! What happened?

Mom, mom, mom!

I got hit by a basketball. It's no big thing.

You all right?

MYLES: Yeah.
