Previously on Fortunate Son.

These are the three Marines
you killed last night.

You will not even think
about saying no to me.

- Yes, sir.
- Travis Hunter.

He's going to be at the Lock and Bar

- in Blaine at 8:00 tonight.
- Ready to do this?

What kind of committee
work was Mom doing?

We've got a problem.

- What happens now?
- Let the committee help you.

- My name's Destiny.
- Destiny.

Hey, hey! L.B.J.!

- You started a fire!
- Stop!

_

Hey, the man is over there.

Does it hurt?

- Take a seat right here.
- You came in from Cam Ranh?

- Yeah.
- When did you sleep last?

I don't know.

Two days, three days?

No one in your unit would
give you new clothes?

They're gone.

My unit, they're all gone. Sir.

Have you ever had chlorpromazine before?

We'll get you calmed down first,

then we'll figure out how to get
you back on your feet. Come on.

Did you talk to Verne Lang?

I don't know who that is, son.

He's, uh...

I don't know for sure. CIA, maybe?

He's supposed to tell me
what's going to happen next.

Have you met anyone in
this army who could tell you

what was gonna happen next?

Hot as hell in this country.

Oh, I see you finally
found yourself a beer.

It's a step in the right direction.

Thought you were sending me home?

No, you're all messed up.

You need to take some
time, get yourself together.

I don't understand what's happening.

The doc said he'd never heard of you.

You got a girl at home, Travis?

No, sir.

You know, I did for a
while but no, not anymore.

_

- Hey.
- My dad's gonna kill me.

Your dad should be proud of you.

It was a peace march.
It's your democratic right.

Ruby Howard? Come with me.

Miss Howard.

Ross McLeod and William Sullivan.

Please have a seat.

I'd rather stand.

Okay. Well, good news.

You're being released.

I should never have been
arrested to begin with.

We have a right to peacefully
protest an unjust war.

Absolutely, except
for the fighting thing.

- Your guy started it.
- Well...

You know what? He kind of did.

But then there's the whole setting fire

to the President of
the United States thing.

That's not the president. It's an effigy.

It's a symbol of the oppressive power

of the military-industrial
complex. That's what we burn.

Miss Howard, you do realize

that the Vietnam War is not
really a Canadian thing, right?

It's between the Americans
and the North Vietnamese.

It's not really our deal up here.

- It's everyone's deal.
- Yeah, okay. Listen.

Since we have you here,
we thought you might want

to tell us about what happened
at the border the other night.

You went down to Blaine

for some toilet paper,
there was an incident.

Some border agents got assaulted.

- Was it me?
- Hmm, I don't know.

The description fits someone
who looks quite a bit like you.

A lot of people look like me.

No, I wouldn't say that.
Would you say that?

- No, definitely not.
- Well, you're mistaken.

Okay, how about this?

How about we get those two
border agents to come down here

and identify you and see
if they are also mistaken?

- That is a swell idea.
- Go ahead.

Look, Mrs. Howard.
We're really more interested

in the guy who did all the... You know.

Y'know, maybe he was high on drugs.

You know, some hitchhiker you picked up,

he did something
unexpected at the border?

No blame on the driver
in that case. Really.

If you have a case,

I think you should go
ahead and charge me.

Okay. You're free to go.

Oh, I'm not going anywhere

until you release
everyone who was arrested

at that demonstration today.

- Oh, for God's sake.
- So, she refuses to go

until everybody else has been released.

We're the police, dammit! It's our jail.

We decide who stays and who goes.

And I thought I told you to
stay away from Ruby Howard?

Yeah. When you told us to drop it,

we understood that to
mean the border thing.

She got picked up at the peace rally.

For fighting with police officers.

Right. A completely
different circumstance.

Get her out of here.

- Is that clear?
- Absolutely.

Fine. The thing is, if we
get physical and she resists,

then we'd have to charge
her with... I don't know,

- what would we charge her with?
- Resisting release?

Look, I want her out of
here, please! So just do it!

This is a violation of my rights.

Hey, hey!

All of those demonstrators
must be released immediately.

Have a nice day, Mrs. Howard.

You need to sign.

I'm not signing anything.

Does that hurt?

Yes. They were going after Ralph.

I had to step in. He would
have fought with them.

And you didn't?

Ted.

They questioned me about the border.

- I think they know it was me.
- And they let you go anyway?

Yeah, it was...

It was weird. They
just sort of backed off,

but they were very interested in Travis.

Do they know who he is?

I don't think so, as far as I can tell.

- They think it was about drugs.
- That's good.

- We have to try to get those kids out.
- No, no, no.

Not tonight, okay?

Woo!

That was so crazy!

Yes! I mean, my mom is in jail!

That was awesome!
I love your mom. Don't worry.

- We're going to get her out.
- Really, how?

I met this guy, this amazing guy.

- Oh, okay.
- No, not like that.

I mean, not that it matters,
right? Monogamy is so bourgeois.

But not like that.

He gave me something amazing.

I have a surprise for you.

What is it?

Chimes of freedom, baby!

You'll see. Come on, let's go!

Okay.

Hey, hey, warrior mom returns! All hail!

- Hey.
- Hey!

- What is this? Come on, Mom.
- That's what happens

when you fight with the police.
It's nothing. Where's Ralph?

Oh, he went to go find Destiny.

You let him go?
I said everyone stays home.

What do you want me to do, tie him up?

Look, I'm glad you're home
but I have work tomorrow.

So, Dennis is driving back
from Pemberton tomorrow

and he has agreed to be the
group's defence attorney.

- Nice.
- You know, we have

to keep pressure on the police
until they release the rest.

Yes. Phone train is in motion,
and I got a crowd of people

showing up at the
police station tomorrow.

Terrific, that's good to hear.

Everyone, please, enough for one day.

- See you guys tomorrow.
- Yeah, you bet.

- Have a good night, Ruby.
- Ted.

'Night, guys.

Ted, I need to go to the cabin
and make sure Travis is okay.

Yeah, I'll go with you.

Travis?

Hello?

Oh, dammit.

He's probably out
getting high somewhere.

His stuff is still here.

What are you doing?

Ted, you can't just
rifle through his things.

Actually, yeah, I can.

We don't know anything about this guy.

I just want to make sure
he doesn't have a gun

- or something.
- What's that?

It's a Bronze Star.

Ralph.

- What are you doing?
- Come on.

- Where are you taking me?
- Come on!

- You'll see.
- Sorry.

- Come on, come on!
- Yeah.

What is this place? Huh?

- It's locked.
- That's what the key's for.

Okay.

- You ready?
- Yeah.

- Oh, my God...
- I know, right?

- Holy shit.
- Don't drop that.

Move, jerk face.

- Hey.
- Barbie robot.

Hey! I thought we agreed not
to set Lyndon Johnson on fire.

It's an effigy.

You kind of have to set it on fire.

Anyway, where were you last night?

Uh... I was with Destiny.

It's not like I was in jail or anything.

I wanna see some real progress

on your correspondence courses today.

- Seriously?
- Seriously.

- That's how you want me to spend my time?
- Mm-hmm.

The pigs are holding dozens
of innocent protestors

- in jail right now.
- Eight.

Eight, whatever. How can you...

treat this like it's a normal day?

A demo is being organized

at the police station.

People will be there
to represent our side.

But not you. Not this time.

Well, don't start in on me next.

This is how I'm expected
to dress at the bank.

Ellen...

Ellen! Honey...

It's not the clothes, I just...

I feel like we're not
on the same team anymore.

Like you just watch what goes on here

- like it doesn't concern you.
- And that's a surprise to you?

Yes.

I didn't wanna come to
Canada in the first place.

Well, you've made that pretty clear.

- But I guess what I'm saying...
- I don't wanna spend

every Saturday with a
picked sign in my hand.

I know that that feels like the
good old days to you, but not to me.

You used to join in like it...
wasn't a chore to you.

I don't wanna live like this anymore.

I don't wanna worry about
who's getting arrested

or how to end the war

or how to... vote out
a corrupt administration.

This is the stuff

- that really matters, Ellen.
- No, it's not!

What really matters
is passing my courses.

And getting a decent job.

And... somehow getting a real life.

This is real life! I don't
know why you can't see that.

What are you doing out here, Travis?

You gotta go back to that house.

Are you listening to me?

You gotta let Ruby help you.

You're all messed up, Travis,
and she's gonna want to fix you.

What do you want from her?

Her committee is bringing

draft dodgers and deserters like you

across the border.

They are hiding enemies
of the United States.

Ruby Howard...

was an agitator in Princeton.

And she is deep in the thick of it here.

I want you...

to get contact names for everybody

on both sides of the borders.

Who's coming across, who's helping them

and where the safe houses are.

And Ruby'll have an address book too.

And I want all those names and numbers.

- You understand?
- Names and numbers.

Names... and numbers.

Come on.

Come on, buddy.

You gotta get to know
everyone in her family.

Alright?

Earn their trust,

and then they'll talk.

It's time to give up the drugs, Travis.

You got work to do.

What do you want?

We're gonna get the others out of jail.

Mom doesn't know about
it, but we have a plan.

That's fantastic, Ralph.

You know, the best part
about having a secret plan is

you don't tell your sister,

'cause she really
doesn't give a rat's ass.

Man, what the hell happened to you?

Ellen, you used to care
about the real stuff,

not just how you look

- and the money.
- I grew up.

No. You sold out.

Oh, yeah. That's what
happened, I sold out.

Only I didn't get a
very good price, did I?

Mom's disappointed in you.
There's a war going on

right now, and you
just checked out on us.

Ellen, we used to have
family solidarity. Remember?

You think I ruined family solidarity?

You ever ask yourself why
we moved to Canada?

Dad's job.

Dad had a job. A good job.

What do you think Mom was doing
on all those out of town trips?

I don't know. And neither do you.

You're so full of shit.

You are.

Are you lost?

You could get killed walking
in the middle of the road,

- you know.
- Sorry.

You must be the guy from the cabin.

It's okay, I know who you are.
I'm Ruby's daughter, Ellen.

Travis.

You shouldn't be out wandering
around. The cops could

pick you up and that'd
be bad for everybody.

So, were you in school
before you went to Vietanm?

Stanford.

Junior year, electrical engineering.

So what, you couldn't
get a student exemption?

I didn't try. I volunteered.

Why?

My father's a veteran.

Korea. Felt like it was my duty.

Wow. Well, if you're such a patriot,

what're you doing here?

Sorry. That was rude.

I was in Vietnam for 18 months

and I watched my best
friend die in front of me.

I stopped believing there was
a good reason to be over there.

You asked why I was here...

For all the trouble
I'm causing your family,

you deserve an answer.

Get in. I'll drive you back.

Wow, it's so cool to
meet you, man. Come in.

I really, really admire
what you did at the border.

You know, you totally took

control when the pigs
tried to strong-arm...

Ralph, will you give us
a few minutes, please?

- Yeah, sure. Alright.
- Thanks.

Nice to meet you, man.

You disappeared last night.

Were you out looking for drugs?

Yeah. I'm not gonna lie
to you. I went to get high.

You made a commitment to
me to get off the drugs.

I know...

and I'm sorry.

I was arrested at the
peace march yesterday,

and they questioned me
about the border incident.

They let me go, but they are

definitely still looking
for you, so it is not safe

for you to be here anymore.

And with the drugs, I
just can't... have it.

I understand.

I messed up, it's my fault.

It turns out this wasn't
as easy as I thought.

Well, I won't abandon you.
The committee will take over

from here. You can stay at the church.

I should get my things out of the cabin.

I'll go with you.

Do you want me to wait 'til it's dark

before I go to the church?

I should call Sandro and
give him some warning.

You know, maybe...

you should just stay here tonight,

until the committee can
decide what to do with you.

Yeah, whatever you want.

- I think it's best.
- Okay.

Do you have enough food?

I'm... not real hungry.

You should try to eat.

Look, I didn't mean to
put your family at risk.

You know, I never wanted that.

Yeah, but how does he know?
You don't even know his name.

Well, he works for

- that's how he had the key.
- Right.

He knows all about Che Guevara
and the people's movement.

I mean, Ralph, this is
how it started in Cuba.

You know, acts of defiance,
blows against the system

- that build momentum.

Have a nice day.

My feet are killing me.

I know, mine too. Oh, she's coming.

Thank you and have a great day.

I find a slight head tilt

when you say it makes
it that much warmer,

especially for the male customers.

Yes, okay. Uh, Mrs.
Montgomery, I was wondering,

um... would it be possible
to sit in on one of

the investment review meetings
with the assistant managers?

Just to listen at the back
of the room kind of thing.

Well, aren't you the go-getter.

Say, I was wondering, that woman

who was arrested at the riot,

- not one of the kids...
- The peace march, you mean?

Riot is what it was.

Anyway, her name was Howard, I think.

That's not, uh...

- No. No, I don't know her.
- Well, that's good.

People are acting so crazily these days.

Good afternoon. How can I help you?

Dear Lord. What did we
do to deserve hippies?

You know, we should be fighting

this war right alongside the Americans,

not protesting it. It makes me sick.

Ooh, I see Mrs. Howard is back.

She must really love this place.

Better keep an eye on her,
make sure she doesn't try

to sneak back in.

Get out of here.

There.

That's where the pigs come in and out.

I'm guessing the cells are here.

How much should we use?

Enough to blow a hole in the wall.

Like how much is that?
I mean, we don't really know.

- Right?
- Well, let's use it all.

There's no use doing it if
we don't do something big.

Yes, I will call you
when I know something.

Yeah. Okay.

That was the border guys.
They wanna know why we haven't

made an arrest.

Kelly's making us look bad.

We could try and force his hand.

We could try and ID the guy.

I mean, he's gotta be at
the Howard house, right?

Beats hanging around here.

Come on.

Hey!

Hello?!

Don't do that here!

- It's public property, pig.
- What did you say to me?

Um, I said, uh, pig! Oink, oink!

- Come on!
- Oink, oink, piggy!

Can you believe that?

It's not public property!
It's police property!

Easy, big fella. Blood pressure.

There's a park around the corner!

Yeah. Come on.

You were young once too, right?

- Uh, I wanted to...
- Dr. Howard. Dr. Howard.

Give us a moment, Quinn.

- Page 12.
- Yes. I'm sorry,

I still don't have the
proton stabilizer results yet.

I'm... still struggling
with contaminant issues.

As you are aware, we
have made commitments.

I understand. Still working on it.

By the way, I saw your wife on the news.

Our sponsors are very
sensitive to controversy.

You are a very talented
physicist, Dr. Howard,

but you are not irreplaceable.

Your wife needs to find
a less public hobby.

Okay.

Look, you don't wanna
mess with this stuff

if you're tripping, seriously.

Maybe you could help us?

Yeah, sure.

Yeah, I can take this
to the cabin with me.

No, this is... this is
our blow to strike.

Okay.

Wait, wait. You'll help us, right?

Yeah. Sure.

When you come down.

- Hey, look.
- What? Oh.

Is that him?

Well, it fits the description we got.

Kelly will have to give
us a search warrant now.

They've got C-4 explosives and caps.

- They could do some real damage.
- Okay.

Well, what do you want me to do?

- Help them.
- They wanna set it off

at the police station.

Let 'em make a big noise.
The bigger, the better.

Why?! What good does it do?

You don't ask me why questions, son.

You just help them make
a big noise. You got that?

Hey.

- Ever been here before?
- No, no.

It's kind of, it's kind of hard to find.

It's a little out of the way.

There's a room in the
back, gentlemen's club.

But we could just have a
drink here, if you'd like?

Or...

You don't have to
stay if you don't want.

Uh...

Well, maybe just a drink here.

- Sure.
- Okay.

- A drink here is perfect.
- Alright.

And don't worry, there's no floor show.

Okay.

It's late.

Just had some drinks with colleagues.

Oh, by the way, Parker
threatened to fire me today

- unless you find a new hobby.
- Hobby?

That's what he called it, yeah.

Parker doesn't get to tell
me how to live my life.

I guess I don't need to
remind you what it would mean

for this family if I
couldn't work anymore?

Parker's a failed scientist,
a jumped-up administrator,

he shouldn't be telling
anyone what to do.

It's called having a job.
You do remember that, right?

I mean, we had careers other than
smuggling deserters at one point.

I told Travis he had to leave,

if that's what this is about...

No, no! What this is about is that
I like my job, I'd like to keep it

and I actually do
important work at Browning.

I'm not just bringing home a paycheque!

You know what?

I'm sick of being
undermined in my own house.

It's our house

and the committee work is important too.

Yeah, yeah. I know, I know. It's just...

... so hard to argue with peace.

How many did you have tonight?

Not enough.

Just go! There's tons of room.

Hey.

Two pounds of pressure on the cap,

and the whole thing goes up.

Hey, where are the other
two? I thought there were six.

Yeah.

Yeah, we wanted to save some for later.

What are you going to do with them?

I don't know, there's
always another reason

to blow something up, right?

So, how do you set it off?

Timer. You got to walk
it over, then keep going.

Don't run. Just walk away.

You have 15 minutes to get clear.

- They're dropping the charges!
- What?

- Yeah.
- That's great.

Hey! Dennis said the
police work was so bad,

the prosecutor could not proceed.

So, are they out yet?

No, they're being processed right now.

- Great.
- Um... We thought it would be

a good idea to make a
statement to the media.

- Yeah.
- And they asked for you specifically.

No. No way.

That's okay. I'll do it.

- Is everything alright?
- Yeah.

- Takes a toll sometimes.
- Hmm.

- Hey!
- Hey!

- Awesome.
- Yeah!

Are you sure you want to do this?

Yeah, absolutely.

You too? You in?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm in.

Here, give me the bag. I'll do it.

No, wait. They might
recognize you from yesterday.

I'll do it.

We all go in different
directions, alright?

You ready?

- Yeah.
- Go.

Destiny. Hey, Destiny!

Hi. Is Ralph with you?

I don't know. Stay away from
the back of the building, okay?

Why?

Just tell everyone to stay away.

Detective Sullivan.

There's a bomb by the back
door. Brown leather bag.

It won't go off.

The caps aren't hooked up.

He's right, it's not connected.

We're all clear.

Shit. That bag came from our house.

Oh, no. Tell me it wasn't Ralph.

Non-violence, Miss Howard?

We took you at your word.

This was not us. We
don't know who did this.

Well, my partner and I
will find out who it is.

And if either of you are connected,

I'll be very disappointed.

I'm going to kill him.

Hey, hey!

Just give me a second. Hey!

Look, something went
wrong, it didn't go off!

I wired it just like
you said. I even got help

- and everything!
- Hey, hey, hey.

Be cool.

Well, do you want me to do it again?

- I've got four left.
- Hey.

Meet me tonight at River Park, alright?

- Yeah.
- Go.

I said no. She wanted too
much money for a quickie.

How did you get those explosives?

- Was it Travis?
- No!

- Destiny?
- Oh my God.

It was Destiny, wasn't it?

Ralph, do you have any idea
what could have happened?

Innocent people could have been killed!

We were trying to do
something meaningful.

- Meaningful?
- Ralph, there is no meaning

in violence.

It does nothing but
create more violence.

I will not let you be that person!

Why would you get to decide who I am?

Hmm? The world needs revolution, Mom!

Revolution that I want
to do. Like Che, like Mao!

I need to do it! Like us.

Ralph. You have no
idea what you just did.

You have single-handedly discredited

everything we have been working toward.

Did Travis help you?

- Did Travis help you!?
- Yes!

You, out.

Come here. Come here.

What are you doing? Let go.

Do you want to go to prison?

Because maybe you should, then
maybe you'd learn something

about the worth of a human life.

Have you ever seen an
explosion where people get hurt?

Because it is not like cartoons,

where people come stumbling
out with their hair sticking out

in funny directions.
I don't know, was that...

was that what you thought
you were gonna see?

No, of course not.

Because people come out in pieces!

They have body parts missing.

A bomb is not a political statement.

A bomb that hurts people
is an act of pure evil.

Who convinced you that
this would be a good idea?

Did you help my son with that bomb?

Did you?

Yeah.

So why didn't it go off?

You're a Marine Corporal.
You know ordnance.

If you helped them set that
bomb, it should have gone off.

So why didn't it?

They didn't know what they were doing.

They were going to kill
someone, maybe themselves.

This way they hand the
C-4 back to the police,

no one gets hurt.

My God.

What were they thinking?

Well, they're kids.

They got high, they got excited.

And they wanted to do
something to make a difference.

You know, the real question is,

who told them how to get the C-4?

You saved my son's life. Thank you.
