All language subtitles for The Gates S01E07 Digging the Dirt

Previously on The Gay Question.

Come on.

Don't call me again.

You have to tell her now. Because any
male she comes in contact with could be

mortal danger.

They have no idea what your tea is doing
to them. What's with the whole we and

they thing? Welcome to suburbia, where
everyone uses their perfectly manicured

nails to scratch each other's eyes out.
I'll need a vial of your blood for the

spell. Of course. You see, gentlemen,
everyone has secrets that need

I'm sorry, Nick.

We can't let you leave.

What do you mean?

Come on, Claire. It'll be fun.

I'm having it catered by that Spanish
place. There'll be tapas, sangria.

It's really important to me.

Good. I will see you around here.

Seems like your little housewarming
slash pool party is shaping up to be

an event.

I just hope everyone gets along.

This can be so clicky sometimes.

It's like, Karen won't talk to Claire,
Devin won't talk to Vanessa. It's like a

whole... Do I sense an ulterior motive?

Yeah, stop the texting. I'm inviting
lots of people.

Hey, did you get any sleep?

You're in nightmares again, huh?

I'm fine.

In this job, it's supposed to be less
stressful than Chicago.

I'm fine.

And I gotta go.

Eyes open. Always wear your vest. Call
for backup. I love you.

I love you, too.

Claire, just go to the party and try not
to let Karen Kresge get under your

skin.

Karen and her lot. There is nothing
worse than that rancid dog smell.

All right, well, just go, play nice.

We need to be normal right now.

Nick.

What, right away?

How clandestine.

Isn't it a bit paranoid?

We saw Buckley's home movies. You ask
me, we haven't been paranoid enough.

What do you propose we do about it?

He's got something on us, I say we get
something on him.

Make it an even playing field.

Check that out.

W .R. Harrison, the developer who co
-founded the gates of Buckley. That's

before my time.

Harrison died a few years after the
gates opened. He falls down some stairs.

But right here, the coroner's inquest.

Something about it. It's a little too
little too neat. I think missions of

murder. That's not enough to go on is it
so we dig?

Dylan we dig till we get something
better. You're in the gates board It

you access to bank statements to
contracts right push Dylan

You have your community well Buckley is
not a vampire and if I start digging

around the board, but can you find out
the risk we take?

Otherwise, we've got Buckley's threats
hanging over our heads for the rest of

our lives. You want that?

Dylan.

All right.

I'm in.

I'm in.

I'll be in touch.

Hey, Dr. Pegg.

Yeah, look, I'm sorry to call you on
vacation. It's just I'm getting some

side effects from those pills.

Keep taking them till you get back?

I don't know if I handle... I don't know
if I can handle that.

Yeah.

Okay.

I've been looking for you. I'm late for
class.

Andy, I just want to know why you're
avoiding me.

I thought we had something, and things
got weird the other night, and now

You wouldn't understand. Try me.

I can't.

Beastly boy.

You're exactly what I've been looking
for.

Chief Monahan, what an unexpected
pleasure.

Here for a men's facial?

A little massage?

Uh, actually, I wanted to ask you a few
questions about your ex -husband.

Frank?

Please tell me he's in lots and lots of
trouble.

That's him.

W .R. Harrison.

He was a friend of my father's.

He didn't have any children of his own,
so he sort of doted on me.

I introduced him to Frank.

Back when I still had no idea what kind
of man my husband really was.

Frank had big dreams, but small pockets
and no connections.

That's where Uncle Billy came in.

That's what I used to call him.

So how would you describe the
relationship between Frank and Mr.

they get along?

You're fishing.

What are you trying to catch?

What's out there.

I can tell you this.

Frank and Uncle Billy had a huge falling
out right before he died.

Looking back, I think maybe Uncle Billy
learned about Frank and Vanessa's

affair.

Things between them got ugly.

And then Uncle Billy had an accident,
and Frank got everything he wanted.

Full control over the gates and 100 % of
the profit.

Nobody found that suspicious?

Uncle Billy had a bad hip, and I was
young and naive.

By the time I found out what Frank was
capable of, well, who'd listen to the

ravings of a scorned woman?

Claire.

Oh, you brought a case.

You okay?

Yes, I'm...

Perfect.

Thank you so much for coming. This
really does mean a lot to me. Oh, I

have missed it.

Although I may not stay long, I'm a
little bit sensitive to the sun and I'm

afraid I don't swim.

Oh, well, really?

Have you seen some of the outfits?
Because trust me, none of these women

going anywhere near the water.

Hey, Lee, you came.

Yeah, and I brought margaritas. Oh.
Figured you'd need them.

Oh, I'm so glad. I didn't think you'd be
into this sort of thing.

watching stressed out trophy wives get
catty with underfed divorcees. Who

doesn't love that?

Yeah, I was kind of hoping this party
would bring people together.

Sarah, what a beautiful backyard.

I brought venison.

Deesha, let's start up the grill.

I should get out of the sun.

You invited Claire Radcliffe and Karen
Kresge to the same party?

Yeah. I think this is going to be good.

What did you dig up on Buckle?

Okay.

Look, Devin may think Buckley killed
Harrison to get control of the Gates

profits, but the numbers don't add up.
If anything, Buckley is underpaid for

position.

It's all very proper.

Is it public record? No, better than
that. I paid a visit to Buckley's CFO,

Lloyd Foster. Now, he's been here since
day one.

The lion's share of the profits from the
Gates, they don't go to Buckley, they

don't go to Devin, they don't go to
anyone else. Instead, 80 % ends up here.

The Gates Trust. So, killing Harrison
doesn't free up a penny for Devin or

Buckley? No. No motive, no murder.

Well, at least that's what they found
Carter.

What if it's not about money?

Hmm?

Devin said Harrison and Buckley had a
falling out before he died. What if...

What if Buckley kills Harrison over
anger?

Well, how do we prove that?

Lloyd.

Guy's been here since the beginning,
right? Maybe he has some insight.

andy are you okay i'm fine you're not
fine you're acting strange look i told

i'm fine we're not together anymore
leave me alone

Venison? Bloody rare, just the way you
like it.

You're in an interesting mood.

Full moon?

Okay, can you explain that?

Some things are beyond explanation.

That's a nice effort. I can't remember
the last time anyone brought those two

and their friends together.

So how are you? Is the case everything
you've been hoping for?

Yeah, no, this place is amazing.

The people need a little work.

I'll be right back.

You know, she doesn't fight.

Karen Kresge?

Take your word for it.

Look, Claire, I may be pushing. I do
that.

And to be honest, when I first met
Karen, I really didn't like her that

either.

She's a good person.

Just go over there and break the ice.

For me.

I will say hello.

I'll be cordial.

Did she stop?

Thank you.

Look,

all my favorite ladies in one place.

You invited Devin?

Yeah.

It's hot today.

Who's ready to jump in the water?

I appreciate what you're trying to do
here.

But I have to go. I can't do this.

Thank you for seeing us, Mr. Foster.

I understand Harrison and Buckley had a
disagreement before Harrison died.

Was it over the affair with Vanessa?

That's the rumor.

See, Harrison was very fond of Devin, so
if he learned that Buckley had been

unfaithful... Must have gotten ugly.

Apocalyptic.

Whatever the issue, Harrison was so
distressed, he threatened to shut down

gate. He could do that?

He had me working on the details.

And then... And then Harrison died.

So sad, the way they found him.

Face down at the bottom of his
staircase.

Lloyd, I'm going to need access to the
records from that year.

Copy of Harrison's will.

Absolutely.

Dating in the internet era is a
revelation.

I get 100 messages a day.

Eliminate the losers. There's still
dozens of handsome, successful men who'd

kill to meet me.

Karen, darling, you should give it a
whirl. No need to grow old sad and

Sarah? Something wrong?

Nothing. This entire party was a huge
mistake.

I just want everyone to get along.

It's because you're sweet.

You know, Nick came into my shop today.

He was asking about Frank. So
mysterious.

Well, I'm sure he had his reasons.

But what were they? That's the question.

What cookie jar did Frank stick his
grubby hands into this time? And more to

point, is he going to get caught?

For once.

Well, Nick doesn't really talk to me
about it. And if he did, you wouldn't

anything, right?

Confidentiality. Oh, I almost forgot.

I brought you something.

My specialty.

A little calm in a difficult day.

Last chance.

Anyone? Venison?

Isn't that a little obvious?

Suit yourself.

So you found this company in the Gates
records.

Yeah. And this river trade land
management, it gets paid directly from

to the state.

Yeah, a quarter mil a month.

It was a codicil added to Harrison's
will requiring the payments.

It was added a week before Harrison
died.

It doesn't look like any office of
Buckley's.

Abandoned.

Not exactly.

Well, looks like the only thing this
place does is drain money from

estate.

It's a rent receipt, payment by wire
transfer from a numbered account in the

Dutch Antilles.

This is Shell Company 101.

I've seen this before.

What? I've, um, I've done this before.

Broken into an empty office of a non
-existing company?

No, set up an empty office for a non
-existing company.

My, um...

My people, they tend to outlive their
identity.

So, every decade or so, we have to
reinvent ourselves.

New name, new town, new birth
certificate.

Otherwise, you never age.

People become suspicious.

Exactly. And when one's garnered a
certain amount of wealth, one prefers to

retain it. So, empty offices, shell
companies, codicils to wills.

Which raises a very uncomfortable
question. If we're trying to prove that

Buckley killed Harrison, what if
Harrison isn't dead and instead is

own money to himself?

Right.

What if Harrison is like you?

We should meet.

Absolutely.

the phone.

What's your number?

Hey, Devin, you left your bowl at my
house. Oh, sorry. I'm busy. I'm gonna

leave. Don't be silly.

Let's sit. We'll have some tea.

I love this tea. I can't get enough of
it.

That's because of the secret ingredient.

Sorry if I ruined your party.

Oh, no, don't be ridiculous. I'm sorry.

You're the one that got thrown in the
pool.

My party was doomed from the start.

I swear, Devin, I'm never going to
understand this place.

The mysteries that make life
interesting.

Speaking of which, any news on Nick's
little investigation into my pig of an

-husband? Yeah, you know I can't really
talk about that.

Of course you can.

It's just the two of us.

You simply have to tell me everything.

I asked him to look at the gate's book.

And also Harrison's will.

I found all sorts of strange things.

Go on.

In Harrison's will, the first thing I
noticed was the claws.

I had it right before he died.

Thanks for the tea. Forget all about it.

Hello, is this Beastly Boy?

Henry.

You have such a nice voice.

I can't wait to meet you.

Andy. No, Andy. Come on. No, Andy, wait.

I said go away. You can't avoid this
forever. Rhett, go away. I don't want to

talk to you. No. Leave her alone. You
don't know what you're doing.

Rhett. Back off.

Rhett, no.

You happy now?

No, no.

I get so lucky.

Someone like you in the mud like me.

I picked you because you're not like the
other boys.

You're different.

I don't know about that.

Don't worry.

Different is exactly what I'm looking
for.

You can show your true self to me.

I don't believe we're doing this.

I don't know what we're doing.

Don't we need a court order or something
to exhume a body?

A tobacco?

I have you.

Look, we need to know if Harrison's dead
or alive, right?

The only way to do that is dig.

So we dig.

Check the right hip socket.

That hip was replaced.

Yeah, it's artificial.

It's Harrison.

Well, so much to my theory.

You know what?

Turn his head over for a minute.

I want to check something.

You serious?

Thought you'd be okay with dead things.

Right there, you see that? The impact
wound on the skull.

That doesn't happen if you fall down a
flight of stairs.

My friend, there's no accident.

Anything you want to tell me?

I smelled you when you came in the door.

I smelled you.

I can explain.

I am working very hard to keep a promise
that I made to you.

So whatever it is that you're doing...
We're protecting our family.

Buckley is blackmailing me.

That woman I killed to save Nick, he got
it all on video.

He saw you?

Yeah.

He showed the recording to me and Nick.

What did he want?

Money?

We have money.

He wants silence.

Cooperation.

But listen, Nick and I, we have a plan.
We're getting the dirt on Buckley.

Leverage. Leverage?

Frank Buckley.

The man who welcomed us here with open
arms caught you murdering a woman inside

the gates.

And all he's asking is that you follow
the rules.

And you want to...

Dylan, I don't understand.

You're always the one who's saying,
think of us.

Think of Emily.

Imagine the consequences.

You might want to heed your own advice.

Try to put an end to this.

Up, slow poke.

You'll miss the first bell.

That was sort of my goal.

Wow.

Real shiner.

Told my mom I ran into a door.

I don't think she believed me. You don't
have to lie about what you did. That

was cool.

I got my ass kicked.

And that's not even the worst part. I
was trying to protect Andy.

But she acted like I did something
wrong.

I don't get her.

Look, I don't know what's going on with
Andy lately, but I know she cares about

you.

So don't give up.

Yeah, if you say so.

I definitely say so.

Hey, Dylan, it's Nick.

Look, why don't you come down to my
office? Nick, I'm out.

What do you mean you're out?

We agreed.

It's just too risky.

I think you're making a mistake.

Or maybe he's the rational one, and
you're making the mistake.

I'll call you back.

This investigation of yours, it needs to
stop.

You're trying to blackmail me into doing
it.

What I'm doing isn't blackmail.

It's an intervention.

You both made serious missteps, and you
need to know that you can't get away

with that sort of thing here.

When are you going to wake up and
realize you have a good thing here?

And stop screwing it up?

Is that what Harrison was doing?

Screwing it up?

Harrison, what are you talking about?

You talk about helping people.

Protecting what you built. I think you
murdered Harrison.

I think you bludgeoned a feeble old man
to death in his own home.

You think I killed Harrison?

He's like a father to me.

Everything I am today, I owe to him.

I could never have hurt him.

I know he was trying to close the gates.

Look, he was angry.

He was confused, but... He was no threat
to anyone.

Even if I believe you didn't do it,
somebody murdered your friend, your

Do you want to see justice?

Of course I do.

I'm going to have my people talk to me.
No.

No.

Let me do my job.

Normally I'm not big on bads, but it's
pretty nice.

That's because you don't have to pretend
with me.

You can just be who and...

What you are.

I've been looking for someone like you
for a long, long time.

Somehow I doubt you have trouble getting
anything you put your mind to.

You'd be surprised.

My life has been a series of
disappointments.

People have hurt me.

Well, anyone that hurts you, you just
point me in the right direction.

I know how to make problems go away.

You're sweet.

Not very subtle, but sweet.

So, there is a way you can help me.

You tell me what to do.

More bubble?

It's not so much what you can do, it's
what you can give.

My eyes.

Dylan? Dylan, are you home?

Christian, it has to stop.

The freckles, the flowers, everything.

Karen, you can't come in here. I don't
need permission to enter a house, unlike

some people.

Why do we act like this with each other?

Jessica.

I can't.

It's Sarah. She's in trouble.

She's been drinking Devin's tea.

I think it's starting to have an effect.

What do you suggest we do?

First, I help you clean this up.

And then we talked to her.

Together.

They're so nice.

I knew if you just spent some time
together, you guys would get along.

Sometimes it takes an outside point of
view to spot the obvious.

It's good to have someone like you in
the gates, Sarah.

Someone without the prejudice that the
rest of us carry around.

Still, um... We do have a confession to
make.

This isn't entirely social.

Sarah, how long have you been drinking
Devin's tea?

Oh, well, pretty much since I got here.

It's so relaxing. It's great. It's like
having two glasses of wine without the

hangover.

And I imagine that it probably works
better now than when she first gave it

you?

Well, yeah, that's true, but...

Sarah, what we're saying is things that
seem too good to be true usually are.

Especially when they involve Devin.

We can't go too deep into it, boy.

There were no signs of forced entry.

Had to be someone Harrison trusted.

Like Buckley.

Exactly.

Maybe for me it was a lie.

You put together all the financing and
show how that... Payments from

stable funneled into River Trace
management.

I'll do everything I can.

Good. Thank you, boy.

Trust me.

You want me to solve Harrison's murder?

You're going to be a hero.

Brett, please.

No, listen to me.

For two minutes, and if you don't like
what I have to say, I swear I'll never

speak to you again.

Two minutes.

I finally understand you.

I know you think I don't, and at first I
had no clue, but now I get it.

Brett, I don't think you understand. No,
I get it, Andy.

I get that everything going on with you
is happening because you're different.

Different in a way you think no one else
could ever understand, but I do.

I understand.

I

understand

because I'm not human.

You're not alone, Mindy.

You never have to feel alone again.

Started with my mom.

Right on cue, Lloyd.

I can explain.

Aren't we?

It's you.

You're the one.

You changed Harrison's world and you
killed him.

It's been you all along.

You're just like Harrison.

Never leave well enough alone.

I brought this to clear up some loose
ends.

Freeze!

Gun on the ground! On the ground!

Get on your knees.

Get on your knees. Hands behind your
head. Against the desk.

You set me up.

Set you up?

Face down at the bottom of the stairs?

Those crime scene photos were never
released.

You gave yourself away, you idiot.

You're welcome.

Coming through.

No, wait.

Wait.

Give me a minute.

If you let me die, then you would have
been free of this place.

The thought crossed my mind.

Go. Don't try to stop.

Let's load them up.

Well, I'm just wrapping things up now.

Yeah.

I'll call you back.

Okay. Hi.

Mrs. Buckley, what can I do for you?

I just came from the hospital. Frank
asked me to stop by.

He says you're planning to leave the
gate.

Well, I'm thinking about it.

That's a shame.

Frank spent a long time looking for
someone like you.

Someone who'd fit in here.

I think he found the right man.

Yeah.

This place isn't what I expected it to
be.

You're afraid of the gates, of Dylan and
Claire and the rest, because of one

word.

Vampires.

But Sarah and Claire, they're friends,
and Dylan risked everything for you.

So what if they're not monsters?

What if they're just people with...

Unique differences and difficult
histories who need your help.

What if the gate isn't a trap?

What if it's a calling?

What if this is where you're meant to
be?

If the gates are such a wonderful place
to live, then why all the secrets?

What is Frank trying to protect?

Me.

He's protecting me.

I'm the reason Frank fought Harrison's
plan to close the gates.

And the reason Frank worked so hard for
our special residence.

Because I'm one of them.

I'm a vampire.

The truth is, everything that Frank has
ever done for the Gates, he's done out

of love.

That's the real secret of this place.

Love.
