Original subtitles

No!

Cut!

Damn it. We didn't get the shot. I told you he has to fall out of the frame. You

can't track him to the pad.

Let's do it again.

No, like, in a second.

Uh, hey, Rip, you good to go again or not?

No, not with this.

It's too old.

I'm not doing this again, bro.

Hey, you said he was a pro. Let me see what I can do. Yeah, just get him back

after this week you're both done.

Rick!

Randy, what do you got?

Yo, Colt Tevers.

Fall guy.

You know it. See, I knew you would, too. Lead majors, baby.

Listen, I'm just calling to see if you're digging that job that I sent you.

Missing stuntman.

Yeah, Hale Ripley. Listen, I'm kind of a big fan of this guy.

He's one of the first black stuntmen to make it out of his hometown.

Got a ton of credit, dog.

He was based in Hollywood for a while, and now he's in Detroit doing this low

-budget indie movie.

Who am I missing after a big stunt?

Who posted the reward?

Girlfriend. Laura.

Offering $12 ,000.

All right, I'm not too far away. I'll head there now. Thanks, Rainey.

Laura. You must be Colter Shaw. Thanks for coming.

So your boyfriend's been missing since last night?

Yeah, the motorcycle's not on the lot. The phone goes to voicemail. He hasn't

come home.

He doesn't do this.

Got it.

Does he have any other family?

He's got an ex and a son in his 20s.

The ex hasn't heard from him, doesn't seem to want to, and I left a message

his son to call me if he gets in contact with him, but I haven't heard anything

back. Are they close, he and his son?

Not really.

Dalton doesn't visit much, rarely calls.

I don't think he's too happy about it, but I let it be his thing.

Okay. And the last time anyone saw him was when he left the lot, when he walked

off the set? Yeah. I don't know what made him mad this time, but he said this

production was a mess.

Unsafe, long hours, cutting corners.

He actually said he was going to try to get me on this movie, but after the

first day of shooting, it changed his mind. You're in the business as well?

Yeah. It's kind of how we met. I do stunt crash driving. He's a high -fall

on this production, but he can do anything else.

Well, he used to.

When we first started working together, I could tell that he was struggling, so

I brought him to an N .A. meeting.

Was it pain pills?

Pretty common in our line of work.

We've all been through it.

Knees, titanium shoulder, pins in his back.

So a chance maybe that your boyfriend relapsed? He was fine when I saw him

yesterday.

You know, we went to a meeting first thing in the morning, like always.

What about the lot on set? Any problems there? You having any problems with

anyone? Yeah. I mean, everyone.

Except maybe the caterer.

You know, he wasn't one to give it a shot.

Did anybody see anything? Anybody have any idea where he might have gone, what

he might have done?

His stunt partner helped me sneak onto the lot, but someone spotted me.

I didn't even get a chance to see the trailer.

Some rent -a -cop put hands on me and said he'd call the police if I tried it

again.

Something happened to Ripley after he walked off set.

These people are hiding something. I can feel it.

Okay.

I'm going to poke around and see what I can find out.

You got a laminate? I didn't know I needed one.

You can't, sir.

It's a closed set.

Right. Oh, got it. Okay, I was just looking for Hale Ripley.

Yeah, no, he's not here. Do you want to maybe talk to his department, Ed?

Stunt department, right? That's Jake Harris.

I can call him. That's the best I can do.

Jake Harris.

Okay. No, I'm good, actually. Thank you very much.

Appreciate you.

Security.

Yeah.

Looking for Hale Ripley?

Not here.

She's cool. Uh -huh. Don't worry about it.

Stay down.

Stay there.

He touch you?

No. You take anything?

No, I said I didn't want to.

Come here. Hey, hey, hey!

What the hell is this?

You Jake? You the stunt coordinator?

Yeah. Yeah? Okay. I don't think you'd like what's going on inside the trailer

here.

You're fired.

Go!

Are you okay?

Head to the med tent. I'll be with you in a second, alright?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Who the hell are you?

Walter Shaw.

I'm looking for Hale Ripley.

You a cop?

I'm not a cop. No, his girlfriend hired me to find him.

He didn't make it home from work last night.

He was upset, so he walked off the set.

Not that last stunt. It was rough.

Ripley, man, he was all over the place.

Distracted, kept checking his phone.

I don't know what was going on.

Followed him out to the trailer, and that just set him off.

Said he was going to go talk to the producers.

About the stunt?

Probably. These people, they're not the kind of people you want to piss off.

You got the name of that producer?

Yeah.

Okay, Bennett Cranston.

So, our producer on this movie has priors for racketeering, intimidation,

looks like ties to some organized crime outfit.

So he's washing his money through his film?

Well, he's not doing it to win an Oscar, I'll tell you that.

It doesn't seem like the kind of guy Ripley should have rolled up on.

No, it does not.

All right. The stunt coordinator said that Ripley was in his phone all day.

find anything on that?

Okay.

Got nothing.

Maybe he was waiting on a call that never came.

Where can I find this Cranston guy?

Let's see.

Okay. Looks like production got him a place in a fancy high -rise downtown.

Sending a pin you away now.

I got it, thanks. Find out who he's working for, will you? Oh, you better

believe I am. Thanks, Randy.

Hey, were you able to set up that dinner for tonight with Maxine?

Yes, corner table 7, Pamela Victor. Great.

You ready?

More or less.

More would be better.

Maybe you can pull together a one sheet of where we are with those cases that

she wanted us to look at. It's already in your book, but I'll make you a copy.

Also, I already finished going through the batch of files that they sent over

last night, so.

Look at you grinding.

I love it.

And I've been to six episodes of that tower of God you put me onto.

After I finished.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

I'll tutor you later.

Baby steps.

Baby steps.

You're welcome.

Here to pick up some film hard drives from Mr.

Cranston. Sign in.

Suite 610.

Suite 610?

Yes. All right.

Thank you.

What you got, Big C?

Andy, hey, I'm still at the producer's house.

Looks like Ripley confronted Cranston. I don't think things went well. The place

is a mess.

I'll send you an image right now.

Oof. What do you need?

We might know where they took him.

I can do that.

Okay, Cranston's phone's offline.

What about the two guys who dragged him out?

Oh.

I'm getting a hit on one of them.

Gage Mueller.

Looks like he's got ties to the same organized crime gang that Cranston does.

Can you get a location on his phone?

Okay. It's in an industrial zone.

Just sent it to you.

On my way. Thanks, Randy.

Where's Ripley?

I don't know.

Did he do this to you?

The dude is off his rocker.

I saw you and your men drag him out on the surveillance.

How'd he get the upper hand?

I was sending him a message.

I wanted to scare him. Get him up!

You really should have known better than to try something like this.

He was threatening to shut down your production, right?

Working conditions?

No. He wanted his Dodge Charger back.

Why'd you have his car?

Because it wasn't his anymore.

I bought it two years ago when he bottomed out.

He was desperate for cash.

But he had this Dodge Charger that he'd customized with a Hellcat Redeye crate

engine.

Worth a fortune.

So he gets the drop on you, he brings you here, makes you give him the car,

right? Right.

But you don't know where he went?

I do not know.

Uh, you can't just leave us here. Door's open.

Cold turn.

Randy, did you see any details?

A car that Ripley took.

Whoa.

Custom Dodge Charger.

Hey, if you're gonna boost the whip, might as well be that one. Yeah.

Did you find it?

I'll find it.

See what I can do.

Got a hit in the charger.

Location coming your way.

All right. Thanks, Randy.

Hi. Sorry. Have you been waiting long?

Just a bit.

I need a drink. What are you having?

Um, nothing yet.

Hi. Are you ready to order? Just drinks. Belvedere triple rocks.

And I will have a glass of rose then, please. Thank you so much. Thanks.

So, um, let's just get into it. Here are the highlights so far.

Um, there are some informal statements that have great lifting.

Or I'd be happy to talk you through them if you prefer.

No, I'm sure it's great. I just, um... I don't want to talk about work right

now. I just... I just need a minute and that vodka.

Everything okay?

No.

I just, um... I just got a call from the credit card company flagging a

fraudulent charge at the Radlow Suites.

Oh, my God.

The Radlow.

My husband and his Pilates instructor, Carly with an I, they

ordered cheeseburgers and tater tots.

Wow.

Thank you.

Classic.

Right? Yeah.

I mean, I knew it, but...

I didn't know it.

Sometimes it's easier to just ignore it than admit that there's a problem.

I would refer you to a couple of good divorce attorneys, but I'm assuming you

already have a list.

Oh, no, I'm not going to do that.

It's way too easy.

I'm just going to play along, fully protect my money and my assets.

And then I'm going to shoot him in the head.

Figuratively, but maybe literally.

We'll see.

You know, I had a client once who sold her husband's entire watch collection on

eBay for a dollar.

Ooh. Mm -hmm. Now you're talking.

Mm -hmm.

Any other ideas? Because I want him to hurt.

And slowly.

Hey, Laura. We tracked the charger location.

I'm almost there, but it sure seems Ripley was desperate to get that car

Talked about how much he loved that charger.

He did all the work on it himself, but I don't know why he would try to steal it

back. In a custom car like that, it's worth a lot of money.

He ever mention anything to you about maybe having money problems?

No. I mean, he lives paycheck to paycheck, never has extra, but he always

by. Maybe he's hiding something from you?

Yeah, he's old -fashioned like that. He likes to pretend that he can fix

everything. Yeah.

All right, let me see what I can find out. Thanks, Laura.

Whoa. Where'd you come from? You all right? Yeah. Yeah. No.

That was awesome, bro.

That was freaking lit, dude.

Oh, I almost had it.

Hey, you want to go again?

No. No, I do not want to go again.

Where'd you get this car?

Oh, I just picked it up.

Yeah. Yeah. I got a killer deal on it, too. Hey, Ripley. Sell you this car?

Yeah.

You see Brakes out here?

Often? No, I mean, his kid is a regular, but this is the first time I've seen

the old man. He showed up, he just smoked us. So his kid races out here?

Yeah, I mean, Dalton's pretty mid, but hey, I don't mind taking money off of

him. Think he's in some kind of money problems, got money issues?

He definitely loses a lot more than he wins.

What about Ripley? He win any money? How much did he win?

Well, he took down three races today, so that's got to be 25 grand easy.

Then he said he needed to sell the car. No questions asked.

Okay. You know where he went from here?

Nah, bro. He just... Took the cash and he booked.

You're okay?

I think so.

All right.

Be safe, all right?

Okay.

So you've been listening to me all night.

You gotta give me something.

There's something to give.

Officially, I am not seeing someone. And the last one was... It ended pretty

complicated, so... Hey, thank you.

All right, so give me details.

Elliot.

That's it? That's all you're going to give me?

We had a good thing going for a while, you know?

Who ended it?

Nobody, really.

He was shot, I was abducted, and then I...

Watch someone executed right in front of me.

But you probably already knew that, didn't you?

I didn't know the details, but... Yeah, I mean, I heard a little bit of it.

Well, then you get it.

You can't really go back to, hey, you want to grab dinner and a movie after

that? So...

So what about you?

Honestly, I'm fine.

I'm much better than I was.

Work is great. You know, I'm surrounded by great people, and you throw in a

couple of drinks in a one -night stand every once in a while, and your girl

couldn't be any happier.

We need... We're lawyers.

We read people for a living.

I went through something horrible, and it was really, really hard.

And then I had to move on.

I know, it's just that when people tell me they're happy, I don't really believe

them.

Because nobody's ever really completely happy, you know?

That's true.

That's true.

But I'm good.

Really, I'm fine.

Randy, did you get my text?

Ripley's been racing the charger because he needs cash.

I think it's his son Dalton who's having money issues.

Hmm.

Let's see.

You are correct.

Looks like he's been wiring his son Dalton some money, thousands of dollars

and there, more frequently over the last few months.

And what do you got on him?

I'm seeing a steady stream of payments to online poker and sports betting.

He holds back taxes, pinion garnishments, credit cards maxed out,

tickets. And he's got liens on his bank account from bad loans.

So Dalton gets in too deep, right? So his dad starts racing, makes some money,

then sells the charger to bail his son out.

Okay, so Ripley gets the money, pays the debt. End of story, right?

Yeah, I don't know about that. He's had the money for, what, a couple hours now,

right? I think he would have told Laura if it was over.

We're missing something.

I've been going through his social media here. Looks like he runs with a crew.

Hold on, let me see.

So, Don's a stunt guy, too.

Must be a family business.

I see what you mean about the crew.

They run some names.

Yep, all coming up stunt guys with a lot of criminal records.

Death, carjacking, assault.

So he's in heavy with this crew, okay.

I need to talk to somebody who knows this world.

Yeah, no doubt.

Yo, Virgil.

What's this?

For my son, man.

I don't know what you got him into this time, Virgil, but this money, it buys

him out.

I'm serious, man.

You and my boy, you are completely done.

Too late for that.

The thing's already going down.

Besides, even if I let Dalton out, I'm still going to need a driver.

I'll do it.

You're going to take his place?

Okay.

But if you step in, you better follow through.

There's no turning back. Yeah, I know, man.

And I got it.

But if you screw this up for us, your son is a dead man.

I think your boyfriend was involved in some pretty dangerous stuff. I think he

was trying to protect his son.

Ripley never said anything about it.

I didn't know he and Dalton were so close.

Did you know that Dalton was running with a pretty dangerous crew?

No. No, I didn't. Take a look at this right here.

Tell me if you remember or recognize any of these guys.

Yeah, a few of them. All wild and unprofessional.

This guy, Virgil Dean, he's a hand -to -hand combat guy. Same as Dalton.

But I've seen him cross the line, put a guy in the ER.

Is this who Dalton's mixed up with? I think so. This guy's got a record.

Yeah.

Word is he has a smash -and -grab crew on the side.

That's got to be what they're caught up in. Take a look at these photos here.

You recognize where this place is? There's a lot of photos of all of them

Yeah, it's an abandoned warehouse by the river.

I went to a party there once.

Wasn't my theme. Left. Okay, I need to go check it out. I'm going with you.

I know this group. I can help.

Okay, yeah, let's go.

You can't be in here. Yeah, I know, but I got lost, and so I just thought

that... There it is.

Nice.

What do you got?

Transit times.

Delivery routes.

What are they planning?

I need to knock off an armored car.

What?

It's all right. It's okay.

I'm here to help.

Who's this?

He's helping me find your dad.

Is he here?

Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

They tied me up and left with him. They're going to knock off an armored

We're just in way over his head.

I owed him money.

And he told me I had to be his getaway driver.

Tell your dad?

I didn't know what else to do.

He was about to film a big stunt, but he told me to just stay low and

let him deal with it.

Your dad tried to pay off your debt.

The money wasn't enough, so he took you to your place as a getaway driver.

Yeah, we'll call it. We still don't have enough time to waste.

Oh, wait, wait.

Let me help.

All right, listen. You're not going to do it my way, okay?

You do everything I say, you understand?

God.

Let's get to them before they get to that truck. Can you move? Yeah, but I

they cracked the rim. Here we go. Come on. Let's go.

Less than a minute to go.

Get ready, boys.

Man, this is not going to go down the way you think it is, Virgil.

And it's not too late for any of you guys.

Come on, Virgil.

We're on.

Listen, don't forget what happens if you blow this.

You'll never see dull again, okay?

So shut up and drive, pops.

Let's go, boys.

They are.

Go, go, go.

Get out. Come on, come on. Get out, get out.

Get your keys. Get them out.

Move. Move.

Open the back.

Cover. Open the back.

Come on.

Let's go. Get in there.

Stay here, okay? Yeah.

All right.

Get some coverage!

Shut up! Get through here!

I got you, I got you

Hey, man. Good morning. Hey.

Laura told me you were coming.

Hey, Laura!

You know, you want a beer?

It's, um... They're fake, but it's either that or water, so... I'm good.

good. Thank you. I got to hit the road soon, so... Yeah, I know how that is.

Look, man, um... I really didn't mean to drag you into all this.

Maybe I should have went to the cops earlier. I don't know. Just... I was

looking out for my boy.

You're his dad.

You don't have to explain yourself. I get it. I still feel like I owe you,

though.

I owe you.

Thank you.

You know, I don't know how this would have gone without you.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

It's a team effort, though.

Really. So what's next for you two?

I got a gig.

Laying down a bike.

Only I'm getting paid this time. Okay.

Me, I'm going to sit right here and not do anything. Stay out of trouble. You

might actually enjoy that.

You know, actually, me and my boy are going to take the charger out, have a

little alone time, one -on -one. So the charger, you got that back?

Yeah. Yeah, the guy sold it to took the same price for it as his.

Just want some free driving lessons on top.

All right.

So it all worked out?

It did.

You do me a favor.

Will you please take care of each other?

be safe take care you
