Stubby!

We gotta move. We
gotta move. We gotta move.

We'll try to make it to
the treeline. Let's go.

- They're not coming, are they?
- Shut up!

I'm not gonna leave you.
I'm not gonna leave you.

Ah!

Ah!

Have a seat, Corporal.

These are the three marines
you killed last night.

Charlie Company.

You were supposed to
rendez-vous with them.

That right?

- Yes, sir.
- But you got ambushed

and you got lost.

You had PFC Studemeyer
with you, is that correct?

- And he was already wounded.
- Yes, sir.

Why'd you open up on
your own men, Corporal?

I, um...

I heard the claymores.

We were trying to make the treeline.

And I heard a knock against a tree.

That's what they do.

It's a signal you hear
that they've got you.

Bullets are next.

But you were looking
for Charlie Company.

Did it not occur to
you this might be them?

We were taking fire. Stubby got hit.

Did you even try to
identify yourself to them?

No, there...

I just reacted. It was dark.

I couldn't see anything.

Well, I'll be sure to
tell these men's families

that it was dark.

I don't understand
why I'm still here, sir.

I gave Staff Sergeant
Lewis my incident report.

If I'm being court martialled, I
mean, you're from command, right?

I'm Special Forces.

- Vern Lang.
- I don't understand.

- Am I being arrested?
- Well, it depends.

- On what?
- On me.

Nobody likes to hear
about friendly fire.

Not the families, not the command.

Not the men you serve with. Nobody.

Ain't that a great sound?

That is the sound of going home.

- I don't understand.
- I've been reading about you.

From San Diego. Camp Pendleton.

- Before that, Stanford.
- What's going on?

We're just getting to
know each other, that's all.

Exemplary military record.

Super intelligent. Resourceful.

What branch of Special
Forces are you with?

I've been working on
your incident report.

It says you engaged the VC in the dark.

PFC Studemeyer was
killed in a firefight...

along with the three
marines from Charlie Company.

That you were the sole survivor.

I'm even recommending
you for a Bronze Star.

But you and I both know now...

that you failed to identify
yourself to Charlie Company.

That you failed PFC Studemeyer,

whose life you were responsible for,

and that you killed those three marines.

As of today, you belong to me.

Oh, don't look so glum. I'm
giving you your life back.

You're getting another
opportunity to serve your country.

When I call you...

and I will call...

... you will not even think
about saying no to me,

or all of this comes back.

- Are we understood?
- Yes, sir.

Good.

Yeah? Okay.

Stanley Pritchard's appeal

was rejected today by a Virginia court.

Pritchard was convicted in the
Petersburg Draft Board raid

that saw a security guard
die of smoke inhalation

after a fire set by peace
activists got out of control.

Pritchard has refused to
name the others involved,

but law enforcement officials
say the investigation is

not over.

In other news...

Ruby? Could I get a word, please?

Sure. Okay, so everybody
knows their job for the march.

Orgono, you informed the businesses

- along Elliott Street, right?
- Yeah.

Mr. Hardware Store wasn't too happy,

but he's never happy, right?

Tina? Those buttons should
be ready at the printer's.

- I'll pick them up.
- Right. What's up?

I need to get home.

Travis Hunter. He was called
up for a second tour and bolted.

He's going to be at the
Lock and Bar in Blaine

at 8 o'clock tonight,
waiting for someone

to escort him across the border.

The problem is that
the people I usually ask

are not available, and I
was questioned last time

I crossed the border.

They're watching for me now.

So send Orgono.

I need a mom, someone
who won't attract attention.

Orgono's going to be
searched every time.

Look... Sandro,

you know I'll do anything
for this committee,

but I'm not going back
across that border.

People cross that border every day.

I can't! Ted has a work thing,

and I have to go with him.

Ruby... please?

If we let that kid down,

- if no one shows...
- I understand.

It just can't be me.

I'm sorry.

Ralph! Bastard.

Ralph left his Lyndon
Johnson doll in the bathroom,

- sitting on the toilet!
- It's not a doll, it's an effigy.

Okay, we're gonna be late for sure now.

- I know. I just have to change.
- Honey?

I wish someone would draft
Ralph so he could go to Vietnam

and annoy the shit out of
the Viet Cong instead of me.

- Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey.
- Give me this.

I got a job today.

- Really?
- Yeah.

It's at the bank. It'll
be good experience.

Just don't tell Mom.

Well, you're supposed to be
concentrating on school, right?

Hey, Mom! Guess what?

Ellen got a job oppressing
the poor at a bank.

- What?!
- Uh, just keep getting ready!

And you still owe me last week's
correspondence coursework.

And tonight, okay,
you stay in, you finish it.

Where are you going anyway?

Oh, it's a... work reception.
Government sponsored night.

An awkward evening of
explaining particle physics

to a bunch of drunk politicians. Honey?

Honey?

Please, try not to kill
each other while we're gone.

Oh, and what's this I hear about a job?

Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.

- Let's go. Go.
- We're gonna have a talk

- about it when I get home.
- Mm-hmm.

Yeah. Yeah, I saw the news.

I mean, the appeal was worth a shot,

but Stanley would never have a chance.

They showed him in leg irons, Ted.
It's just... heartbreaking.

Stan Pritchard is a
tough son of a bitch.

He said he wouldn't talk, and he didn't.

And whatever evidence the FBI had,

they laid it out at the trial,
okay? So, it's over.

Hey, just make an effort here. Okay?

I mean, this... it's important.

- I know, yeah.
- Okay.

Okay.

Thanks.

Can I, uh, get you a drink?

I'd love one.

Mrs. Howard.

Mr. Parker.

Nice of you to take time out from
your many volunteer activities.

Wouldn't miss it.

I hear there's a peace march planned.
You thinking of attending?

Well, I organized it, so yes.

Um, I wouldn't mention
it to Deputy Minister Swan.

Or any of them, really.
Not good to mix politics...

With politicians.

- With science, I was gonna say.
- Ah.

Excuse me. I'm needed at the podium.

Courage.

One of them asked me to use
our lasers to cut his lawn,

I swear to God.

Ah, Ruby, you've met Quinn. Right?

- Right. Hi. Nice to see you.
- Charmed, I'm sure.

Could I get your attention please?

Ladies and gentlemen,
what a tremendous day this is.

So great to see you all here.

Without your help and support

for the Browning Research Centre,

so many stunning new innovations
would never be realized.

With our partners in government

and the private sector, we
are charting new territory

- in laser technology.
- I'm gonna go.

What? Why? No, you can't
go. He wants me to speak.

It's safer for everyone.
I... I'll phone for a taxi.

I... I'll see you at home.

Dr. Howard's ground-breaking work

with electron beam stabilization

is getting us to our goals quicker
than anyone could have imagined.

Dr. Howard, please share
some of your innovations.

Sandro, it's me.

Um... thank you Dr. Parker.

It's so nice to see so many
familiar faces here tonight.

You got a light?

Yeah.

Thanks.

What do you want?

- Does it matter?
- Do you have drugs on you?

Because if you do, I'm
calling this off right now.

I'm clean.

I had a last toot for the road.

Kind of a big deal I
don't get to go home again.

- Are you ready to do this?
- Yeah.

Red and white van, parked out back.

Okay. Here we go.

You're my nephew, Travis Ansell.

You're from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.

Hi, there.

We just went down to that new emporium.

They had a great sale on toilet paper.

Turn the engine off and
step out of the vehicle.

Both of you.

I said both of you.

- Are you high on drugs?
- No.

You're gonna come inside and we're
gonna see what's in your pockets.

- Don't touch me.
- Hey, hey, no.

It's okay, my nephew's just
not feeling very well. He's...

You're gonna go through this
door and we're gonna search you.

Jesus!

Get in the van!

Get in the van!

What the hell was that?
Just let them search you!

I couldn't. I'm holding.

Look, we have to get off the highway.

Hang on!

Okay. Red and white
Fargo van. '65 or '66.

- That's right.
- That's the plate number?

- Yes.
- And the woman driving,

- mid-40s, blonde hair.
- And the guy was a hippie

- low-life, high on drugs.
- Well, he can't be that high.

I mean, after all, he did bust your nose

and dislocated your buddy's arm, so...

Are you guys trained
in this shit at all?

- Seriously.
- Shut up.

I'll run the plates.

So, an unarmed hippie with
drugs in his pockets reduced

two border patrol agents.
You think they'd be at least

- a little embarrassed about that.
- Yeah, you'd think.

Not so much.

Alright. Let's find the van.

Yeah, let's do it.

But, wait. How did
you morons get in here?

You don't talk to me!
Ever! You understand?

If you touch me,

I'm gonna shove this shit
down your throat!

- You're a psycho, man.
- Yeah.

So, get out of here.

Hey, fire guy! Wait up.

Whoa! Shit, shit, shit.

Sorry, sorry! I... I... I

You're kidding. Those jerks?

- Ralph.

I like that. That's solid.

My name is Destiny.

- Mm-hmm.

- Seriously?
- Yes. Seriously.

We've got the police

looking for us now! You have no idea

the danger you have put us in.
Me, my family the committee.

That was unbelievably stupid.

Didn't it occur to you that
carrying drugs across the border

while you're illegally entering
a country might be a bad idea?

Look, if you wanna just go
your own way now, that's fine.

And how is that supposed to work?

You have no idea where you are.

The police pick you up,
we're both in trouble.

Sandro's gonna kill me.

I envy you. I really do.

I mean, just travelling...

living in your car.

My parents are stuck

in some pre-industrial
revolution time warp. You know?

It's all like, pigs
and chickens and church.

- Really?
- Yeah.

I had to get away.

So, how did you end up in a
school with a bunch of jerks

like that, huh?

My parents, they moved
from the States a couple years ago.

I don't really...

- fit in here.
- Yeah, no kidding.

It's a good thing. Come on.

Thanks.

I, um... I probably need
to... to get back home, so...

Well.

Okay.

You're up late.

I have a paper due,

Hmm.

Has Ralph gone to bed?

You could say that.

Hey.

Hi.

Uh... so, who are you?

Oh, I'm Destiny. Ralph invited me over.

Oh, okay. I'm, well, I'm...
I'm Ralph's... I'm his dad.

Cool.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

Does your mom know about her?

I thought Mom was with you.

- She's not here yet?
- Nope.

Hey, Sandro, it's Ted.
Is... is Ruby there?

Uh, where is she?

Oh, my God. Okay. Okay.

Uh... call me as soon
as you hear from her.

Yeah.

It's committee work.
Everything... everything's fine.

Um... you hungry?

So, do your parents
know that you're in Canada?

- I left a letter.
- Do they know about the heroin?

It doesn't matter.
I won't see them again.

Parents don't give up
on their kids that easily.

I won't see them again.

I read that...

you studied engineering at Stanford.

- Is that right?
- Yeah.

And that you were on the track team?

Travis...

If you want our help,

we can give you your life back again.

Give you a purpose. But
you gotta quit the drugs.

And you gotta do it today.

Right now.

I'm not gonna leave you.
I'm not gonna leave you.

Stubby!

Here's a news bulletin from
the National Radio Service.

Excitement at the border

last night as two Canadian
border patrol agents

were assaulted. There were
no arrests at the scene,

and the police are still investigating.

Meanwhile, Pierre
Trudeau caused a stir...

Dad?

What kind of committee
work was Mom doing?

Was that her in the news story?

I really hope not.

Yeah?

Thank God.

Okay, I'll be right there.

She's all right. I'm picking her up.

A red and white Fargo van...

- Mm-hmm.
- ... license 6-8-9-7.

Yes, that's mine.

Were you in the van last night?

No, it was stolen.

Were you planning to report that?

Well, um... sometimes,
I let people use the van.

So, you lent the van to some friends.

Yes, to the Ramirez family.

They, um... they lent it to Leonard Cho.

And Leonard, he parked
it behind the... Five Cs.

And when he came out, the van was gone.

- Stolen?
- Well... or borrowed again.

- But I don't know by who.
- I see.

There's gonna be a peace march?

Yes.

Who's this blonde woman?

I... I don't know.

A lot of people joined
us in the street that day.

Okay. Well, thank you.

Pleasure.

He knows exactly who
had that van last night.

Uh-huh. And he was lying
about the blonde woman too.

Unit 2-6.

- 2-6.
- We have a location

for plate number 6-8-9-7.

Go ahead.

- Ted...
- Hey.

- Hi.
- Hey. Oh.

- I'm so sorry.
- Yeah, what the hell happened?

We've got a problem.

Travis.

- Morning.
- Good morning.

I'm really excited about this job.

I'm studying economics at university.

Isn't that wonderful.

So, Ellen, we like to start our
new girls with an orientation.

The tellers are the face
of the company and, uh...

I can't help but notice
you're not wearing any makeup.

Even though your shift
hasn't begun, we...

encourage our girls to look
their best at all times.

Oh, okay. Right. Sorry.

Luckily, Bridget is
also starting this week,

so you'll have company
in deportment class.

- Nice to meet you.
- You as well.

- If you'd just like to join us?
- Mm-hmm.

- Toilet paper smugglers.
- Nothin' worse.

Well, there was that big
sale down at that new emporium

down in Blaine.

Oh, yeah?

Well, that means she's local
if she knows about that.

Maybe she goes down,
picked up some toilet paper

and she gives a hippie a ride back.

He freaks out 'cause he's
got dope in his pocket.

Kind of an overreaction.

A lot of beat between those
two border patrol guys,

suggests some kind of
training to take 'em both down.

Yeah. And she gets back in
the van with the hitchhiker.

- I wouldn't do that, would you?
- No way.

Okay. She didn't go
down for toilet paper.

She went down to actually get this guy,

and he's got a reason to not
want to be questioned.

It's not bad. So, what
do we do with the van?

Put it in lockup. It's evidence.

Or...

give it back to Father Perez.

I mean, sooner or later,
he's gonna go to this lady

and ask what happened
to all this toilet paper.

I like that.

So, this is just temporary.

Sandro and the committee
will get you set up

in a safe house as soon as
things have quieted down.

It's pretty rustic,
the chairs are broken.

But for now, this'll have to do.

I appreciate it.

Is there... coming
down off of the drugs,

is there something that could help?

Just have to ride it out.

We had an agreement, Ruby.
No more high-risk actions.

It wasn't supposed to be high-risk.

Well, two border patrol agents
were assaulted and injured.

I bet that the FBI are gonna
wanna take a good look at that,

and you better hope they
don't connect you with it.

- Completely unnecessary risk.
- I know.

And you didn't tell me you were going.

I know. And I'm sorry about that.

But Stan Pritchard is
going to prison for 8 years.

- Yeah.
- And what am I doing?

I'm standing at some...
insufferable cocktail party.

It's an important work function.

While some kid who's just
had his life ruined in Vietnam

is waiting on the other
side of the border

- for somebody to give a shit.
- Yeah.

For somebody to reach out
and offer him some protection.

I wasn't gonna sip my martini
and pretend that I didn't know

he was there.

I'm sorry, but I would do it again.

You know, there was a time

when we both would've gone.

- So, what's the plan?
- We hide him and we make up

a backstory and then we
blend him in to the community.

Jesus, Ruby, he's a drug addict.

And obviously, he... he can be violent.

You really wanna introduce
that into our lives right now?

I told him he had to quit
the drugs and if he doesn't,

we move him on. Sandro will help us.

Ted...

nobody planned this.

It just happened.

Alright.

I was worried sick, by the way.

They ran it up onto a
log. Got it high-centre,

but Ross here straightened
out your tire rod. He's...

- He's quite the mechanic.
- Well, it's just a hobby.

If you notice a shimmy, though,
you should probably have it replaced.

That's good to know. And thank you.

Um...

Do you know how the
van came to be there?

We were gonna ask you the same thing.

Ah, no. Uh, sorry, I have no idea.

Maybe just some
stoners out for a joyride.

- Yeah.
- Anyway, I'm sure you will

let us know if anything occurs to you.

- Yes! Of course. Thank you.
- Thanks, Father.

Thank you.

So, uh, sorry, Destiny.
I... I still don't quite understand.

Where do you live exactly?

- Thanks. Um, in my car mostly.
- Hmm.

Yeah.

- Thanks.
- Yeah, she's gonna be

staying with us for a while.

After that, though,
I'm heading to Long Beach.

I heard that a bunch of rave-heads

have set up this community out there,

kind of like Guam Two.

You've probably read
B.F. Skinner, right?

Uh... yeah, she has.

Anyway, uh, I think it's so
cool what you're organizing

for National Action Day.
Ralph told me all about it,

and I don't know, I admire you so much.

Man, this is how you get
people to rise up, you know?

So, um... do your parents
know where you are?

Mm-mm. No. That'd be bad.

- Hey!
- Hey.

- Hey.
- Here, honey.

Oh, thank you.

What?

You got a bit of...

It's called makeup.
A lot of grown-ups wear it.

You know what? I think it looks nice.

Thank you. It's for an actual job
where they pay me actual money.

You look like a clown.

I don't know how you expect to
work and carry a full course load.

Because I'm a hard worker,

unlike my constantly stoned brother.

Why would you choose a bank?

You're so much smarter than that.

Look, I know money is a dirty word,

but people actually use it,
and if you don't have it,

you end up like Ralph.

Well, at least I'm not indentured

to the morally corrupt
corporate overlords.

Okay, okay. Who wants water?

Yeah, thanks.

You know... none of
us will be totally free

until we overthrow the whole system.

Right on. Ellen...

You gotta...

- You gotta open your mind.
- Yeah, and you need to get one.

And by the way, I live here.

Where do you live, exactly?

- My brother's room?
- Help me.

- The shaggin' wagon in the yard?
- "Shaggin' wagon".

Okay. You know what?

I can't spend another
night listening to you two.

I'm going to the cabin tonight.

No!

Uh...

Listen, everybody needs to
stay away from that cabin

- for the next couple of days.
- Why?

Oh, my God. You brought him here.

- Brought who?
- The guy from the radio...

- Ellen, don't overreact.
- Overreact?!

It became a complicated situation.

That was you? Mom, that was you?

- Yes.
- That's so cool! Wow!

- It's not cool, Ralph!
- What do you mean, "not cool"?

Stop. Not a word to
anyone. You too, Destiny.

- It's very important.
- Dad, she tried to save...

- Ralph!
- Ralph.

Fine.

- That must be Sandro.
- Okay.

Will you please sit down?

- That her?
- Yup.

So, Father Perez did lie about
knowing that blonde-haired lady.

Imagine that,
getting lied to by a priest.

Why'd you open up
on your own men, Corporal?

Did you even try to
identify yourself to them?

As of today, you belong to me.

When I call you...

... and I will call...

you will not even think
about saying no to me,

or all of this comes back.

How long have you been using?

I started in Nam, last year.

Okay.

You're here now. You're in good hands.

We have a network of
immigration lawyers,

counsellors, safe houses.

You can work, go back to
school, whatever you want.

You're getting your life back, Travis.

Kicking the drugs is the first step.

We're saying he's my nephew
out here from Dartmouth

- looking for some work.
- Okay.

Yes. Yes, I'll talk it
up at the demo tomorrow,

that Travis has been here for weeks,

and if the police start asking around,

there'll be more people
to vouch for him. Yes.

Good idea.

You just lie low for now.

- Alright?
- I will.

Okay.

Drop it.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Chief! The...

We're 90% sure Ruby Howard
was the woman in the van.

And a search warrant of the property
probably turns up the young guy.

I said drop it.

Sir, two border agents were assaulted.

- We can't just let that go.
- Do I have to tell you

all the reasons for my decisions?

No. I don't.

Drop it.

I do not like being told to sit one out.

Yeah, I know, but the chief drop it,

maybe we should drop it. We
can get in a whole lot of shit.

It's not right.

Maybe we can go to the demonstration.

You know, see who's there.
Just for fun, like.

- That could be fun.
- Yeah.

Look, if the police find
him, if it comes down to that,

you have to... tell them

that you were coerced, that...

you went down to Blaine to shop,
that Travis jumped into the van,

and... he forced you to
drive him across the border.

- Look, I'm serious.
- Ted... he's just a scared kid.

You could see it in his eyes.

Whatever happened to him in Vietnam...

- changed him.
- Well...

I don't think you know
anything about this guy, so...

just don't get attached, he's trouble.

Look...

I know I shouldn't have
gone there last night, okay?

And I'm sorry.

But seeing Stan on the news

and then dealing with Parker, I just...

I felt like I had to do something.

- You know what I mean?
- Mm-hmm.

Are we okay?

I think you need to go to
the demonstration tomorrow.

Just business as usual, and...

Because if you don't show,
it's gonna be noticed. So...

National Action Day Against
the War in Vietnam

has seen demonstrations
mounted in major cities

and small towns around the world.

The streets in Washington,
Chicago, New York are choked

with protestors. There are
reports of demonstrations

in Europe, Canada and Asia as well.

Hey, hey! LBJ! How
many kids did you kill today?

Hey, hey! LBJ! How many kids

did you kill today? Hey, hey!

Police presence in
virtually every instance

has led to confrontations
with protestors.

... LBJ! How many
kids did you kill today?

We will not tolerate lawlessness.

We will not endure violence.

It matters not by whom it is done,

or under what slogan or banner.

It will not be tolerated.

This nation will do whatever

- it is necessary to do...
- Spread out!

... to suppress and to punish

those who engage in it.

Hey, hey! LBJ!

Anti-war marchers in several cities

burned effigies, trying to
prevent police and firefighters

from dousing the flames.
Scuffles broke out

and we are hearing reports
of widespread arrests.

- ... kids did you kill today?
- Let's go!

Go! Go! Go!

- Ralph!
- Let's go!
