All language subtitles for Blue Ridge s02e06 Montagues and Moonshine

What's that light up, yonder?

On that there porch?

Tis the break of dawn, and Juliet's my
sweet tea sunrise.

Wake up, sugar, and outshine that ornery
old moon. Cut!

Cut! Cut! Dean, no.

No. No? No. Oh, no.

You have got to make us feel the
anguish.

Of Romeo's very soul. You're not just,
I'll call it out to Juliet.

What is that light?

Up yonder on that there porch.

Tis the break of dawn.

And Juliet's my sweet tea sunrise.

Wake up, sugar.

And out shine that ornery old noon.

Yeah, you get it?

You get it?

Oh.

Ah.

So go slower. No!

God bless America, Dean.

Do you think our director takes himself
too seriously?

I don't know. He did act in an episode
of Sheriff Lobo.

I heard it was like two lines and he was
ten years old.

What is your motivation?

Hmm?

You were a person. I didn't even thought
I'd get into acting, but you didn't want

to give us a try. Oh, gosh.

Not your motivation.

Romeo's motivation in this scene. What
is Romeo's motivation? Right, no, I... I

want some... Oh, sweet tea. It's not
here, Dean.

It's not? It's right there.

Look at that beautiful woman.

That's your own wife.

Yeah. Dean.

Yeah.

You wanna... You wanna try it again?

Yeah. Yeah.

Let's do it, Dean. I believe in you,
buddy.

Show me Romeo.

Romeo's dead.

Here she is.

Hey,

Maddie.

Follow me.

Okay.

A sandbag fell and hit him right on the
head.

Are you okay?

Yeah. Yeah, no. I don't know. I've never
had a sandbag drop to my head before,

Sheriff.

You don't think it was intentional, do
you?

Probably just old equipment.

Actually, the rigging is new. It's an
automated fly system that...

Lifts and lowers pieces on the stage.
And you are?

Hayden Frazier. The director?

Ha!

Ronald. Director.

Zach eligible.

He is just the stage manager. No, but
I'm also the prop department, costumes,

lights. He's also Romeo's understudy.
And I was also nowhere near the system

control panel, by the way. So who was
near the system control panel when this

happened? That'd be me, Sheriff.

Connor. I'm the producer. Thank you for
coming.

This isn't your typical crowd.

Yeah, first and probably last time
financing one of these.

So, you were near the control panel when
this incident happened?

Yeah, I had just showed up, but I didn't
touch anything.

Okay.

Want to show me the control panel?

Over here.

Come on, Ronnie.

Here's the cookie. Come on.

Hey, what's happening?

Error code, I think.

All right, first things first, shut this
thing down, and then get someone out

here to fix it.

Well, if Romeo is fine, then as they say
in the theater, on with the show.

As they say in the sheriff's station,
safety first.

All right, you good?

Yeah. Stay away from falling things.

Okay. And for the time being, why don't
you go back to doing things the old

-fashioned way?

My hand.

That's being purist. I love it. I love
it.

You got that?

Yeah.

Dad? Yeah.

Dad,

are you sure nobody could have done this
on purpose?

Dropping a sandbag on someone's head is
how you hurt somebody in a dime store

now.

Yes. How's it going, Dixie?

Dixie?

Dude, come on.

Okay.

We've been out on a couple of dates, and
I think she's really sweet, and I kind

of like her.

Okay. But we're keeping it under wraps
for now, okay? So please don't talk

about this around the station.

Thank you.

I just got a report about a white sedan
swerving pretty dangerously over on

Ellen Road.

Possible DUI, I guess.

All right, let's go.

I didn't feel the engine, sir.

Huh?

I need you to turn off the car right
now, sir.

Have you been drinking, sir?

I just had one drink. I promise,
officer.

It was just one drink.

You know, everything just started
spitting, and I didn't know where

I was.

All right, let's have you step out the
car.

He said he only had one drink.

Do you believe him? We do.

I mean, as you can see, there's not much
gone.

Plus, there was no open containers in
the vehicle.

And he was coming straight from a sales
call at a home in Toccoa. I guess he

sells encyclopedias.

Anyways, I called and confirmed he was
there. And sober.

Whoa.

Oh, this is a moonshine. This is rocket
fuel.

He said those jars were sounding like
hotcakes out of the back of a minivan in

Fraser County.

Well, contact Frasier PD and get Sheriff
Emerson on the phone for me.

Dad?

Hey, shouldn't you be at school?

I've got off-campus lunch today.

Oh, you came to have lunch with your old
dad?

Not exactly.

Can we talk?

Sure. What's up?

Okay, last night I checked the sandbag
that hit Dean, and I noticed it was way

lighter than the other one.

So I looked inside, and the sand was
mixed with sawdust.

Okay. So I went back this morning to get
a sample for you, and now that bag is

refilled with only sand. So what are you
suggesting?

Maybe somebody wanted to hurt Dean, but
not necessarily kill him.

Or maybe the lighter sandbag caused the
malfunction, and that's why they

replaced it.

No, I mean, you always tell me to trust
my instincts, Dad, and something about

this, it feels off.

Well, for us to consider it more than an
accident, we need actual... Evidence.

That's how police work works.

Hey, boss.

I got Emerson on the line for you.

I gotta take this.

Have a good day at school, Matty.

You can't bring that in here, Sheriff.
As you know, shine's illegal here in

Blue Ridge. I'd have to report you to
the... to the deputy, maybe?

I just got off the phone with Sheriff
Emerson.

Said that someone is selling this very
potent moonshine out of the back of a

van. Hmm.

Don't say.

And we reached out to neighboring
counties who have the same issue. That

whoever buys it is getting knocked out
flat.

And? What?

Does that got to do with me?

Oh, I'm glad you asked. Even though this
project doesn't have an official name,

people are calling it after its creator,

Boostin' Juice.

Well, we just have to thank the good
Lord that it hasn't found its way into

our fine town.

Well, it seems as though the distiller
of this Boostin' Juice is avoiding Blue

Ridge.

Well,

As the owner of a bar, which is a
legitimate alcohol trade business, I,

for one, oh, I sincerely hope you catch
these rogue vagabond

moonshiners and bring them to justice,
Sheriff. That's exactly what we intend

on doing.

It's good to see you, Dixie.

Dixie?

You know where my knucklehead nephews
are?

Booster said they were off to make some
cabbage.

Cabbage.

That boy could screw up a one-car
parade.

I mean, I'm pretty much the only real
actor in this entire county.

No offense.

So I'm taken.

Just because Ronnie teaches acting at
Ridge Creek Community College, he gets

the direct?

She was the cast.

I mean, Dean is terrible as Romeo.

Well, Janet's pretty good as Juliet.

Oh, I'm sorry. Just because she plays
Juliet, he gets to be Romeo because

they're married?

It's literally nepotism.

Hey.

Hey, hey. You know where Juliet's knife
is? It's missing from props. No, and

we're in the middle of something.

Yeah.

Okay, actors are not supposed to touch
props unless they're using them in the

current scene.

Theater 101!

Is it true the only reason Dean got that
part of Romeo is because he did some

work for Connor for free?

Okay,

you'll regret it.

You hear me?

It's not a joke.

The thing was a total train wreck, but
now ticket sales are picking up just

overnight. The whole town is talking
about this handbag incident.

Yeah, I kid you not. If the dude had
actually died, we'd have a hit on our

head.

you idiots up to.

Just make another batch.

A boosting juice.

I told him Tyler T. Sean sounded better.

I'm famous now.

Everybody's talking about me.

Oh, yeah, you are, including the
sheriff.

Listen, you hayseeds.

The whole point of breaking the law is
not getting caught.

What, you think bank robbers put on ski
masks because they're going skiing

afterwards?

I thought it was all about branding.

I mean, McGrath is making money hand
over fist with a Carolina blue bourbon.

And like you always say, our product is
superior.

Now, it would be un-American if we
couldn't get to the people.

I mean, maybe we could even get a
license.

Moonshine ain't supposed to be legal.

It's moonshine!

I think moving forward, we just need to
be careful and calculated in our

deliveries.

What exactly you got in mind there,
Uncle?

Y'all hear tale of a cinematic classic
called Smokey and the

Bandit.

You were found leading over the victim.

I went in to go talk to him about a
scene, and when I opened the door, there

he was with my knife in his back.

You mean Juliet's knife?

Yeah, but, um,

well, it's also my knife.

Your knife?

Yeah, it's a BYOP production.

You bring your own prop, so we brought
it from home.

So you're using real knives in the
production?

Ronald was a stickler for authenticity.

I ran over to go check on him, and then
she started screaming.

Okay, you two stay here. My deputy has
to come over and get a full statement

from the both of you. Don't move.

Hey. Please shut down.

Didn't you hear what the director said
yesterday?

The show must go on. It mustn't, and it
won't.

Please cancel.

Hey.

You okay?

Yeah.

Seeing a dead body can be very
traumatizing.

So if you need to talk to me about
anything, I'm here for you.

I know.

Thanks.

I do need to talk to you.

So I did some investigating.

I heard Janet and Ronald talking in his
office, and then she ran out crying.

Okay. Yeah, and that stage manager,
Hayden, he was very mad that he didn't

get the part of Romeo.

And I heard Connor talking about
something on the phone, about how an

actual death would increase ticket
sales.

Oh, and Dean and Ronald were arguing in
his office about something that needed

to end right then.

or else he would regret it.

Anything else? Yes.

Hayden was in charge of the prop, and
just before the murder, he went around

asking where Juliet's knife was, giving
him plausible deniability.

Plausible deniability?

Yes. Plausible deniability.

That's where he set things up to save an
airtight alibi.

Good job.

I'll take it from here.

Okay. Well, if you need any more help,
you know where to find me.

Yeah. At home, studying.

According to all these statements,
Ronald was an egotistical jerk.

Just about everyone hated him.

Oh, yeah.

He told me my acting made Steven Seagal
look like Laurence Olivier.

For the record, I didn't kill him.

With so many potential suspects, it's
going to be easier to figure out who

didn't want him dead.

You want us to follow up?

Now, I'm going to take point on this
Shakespearean tragedy.

I want you guys to shut down Boots and
Juice.

I'm getting calls from all the local
sheriffs. They want to know why I'm

allowing a Blue Ridge criminal to run
havoc throughout their town.

I mean, if Jeremiah knows we're onto
him, he's probably just pumped the

brakes himself, right?

No.

Jeremiah, he fancies himself a redneck
Don Corleone.

Dollars of donuts is going to raise the
stakes.

You're going to need the bus booster to
make it stick.

We have witnesses that they saw you
leaving Ronald's office in tears.

You're also the one I found over the
body.

And the murder weapon belongs to you.

I know it looked bad, but it wasn't me.
I had just walked in there and found the

body. All right, let's start with why
you were leaving Ronald's office in

tears. Ronald wanted me to convince Dean
to drop out of the play.

He said my husband was ruining his
masterpiece.

Why would you agree to that?

I know it sounds silly now, but Ronald
promised that he would rewrite the play

so that my character didn't die in the
first act.

It's been a while, but doesn't Juliet
die in the end?

Not in Romeo and Juliet.

Ronald wanted to write something that no
one would see coming, a twist.

That Romeo was the killer.

And you told Ronald you would do that?

No, no, of course not. I could never do
that to Dean.

And how did Ronald take that?

Well, he was upset. He was very angry
with me, and he started yelling at me.

I left in tears.

I am an actress.

I take classes at the community college.

You were arguing with your husband,
Dean? What was that about?

Just typical husband and wife stuff.

We had been struggling to connect.

I mean, it's no secret that Dean isn't a
great actor, but he was in the play

because he wanted to spend time with me.

This is going to be easier than we
thought.

It's on the go.

Come on out.

It's hot.

Let's open it.

Hey, uh, deputies, is it illegal to sell
stuff at the flea market in Ellison

County?

Sit down,

sit down.

We're rolling now, baby.

It's like Smokey and the Bandits.

Sheriff. Do you mind if I come in?

No, no, not at all, please.

Well, how can I help you, Sheriff?

Well, do you mind handing me that loaded
handgun in your back pocket?

Yeah, sorry about that, Sheriff.

After somebody tried to drop a sandbag
on my head, I couldn't shake that

feeling that maybe I'm next.

Maybe the killer would come and finish
what they started.

I understand that you and Ronald got
into an argument in his office

yesterday.

Argument? No.

You yelled, he ends it or he regrets it?

Oh, no, we were just running some lines.

Running lines?

Yeah, yeah, just, I mean, he had a
script revision and he wanted to hear me

say it.

I have them right here if you want to
see them.

I practice them.

So you partnered with Connor to get the
part?

You did some free work to get the role?

I'm an engineer by trade. You know, I
did some work for him in the past. I did

a complete overhaul on his reservation
system over at the Blue View, and I

automated part of his Carolina blue
bourbon distillery.

So how much would something like that
cost?

$20,000, give or take.

That's a steep price for a role in a
community play.

Not that steep if it means getting
closer to life.

I kind of had a rough patch in the last
little bit, and somehow I thought that

maybe if I was in the play, that would
help save the marriage.

You know, she's the love of my life.

And I've always known that she's been,
like, way out of my league. I guess in

the last couple years, maybe she figured
that fact out as well.

Started to grow a little more distant.

So I thought that, hey, you know, maybe
if I could be her Romeo, she'd...

somehow remember that she's my Juliet
and I could reignite the spark a little,

even if it meant me embarrassing myself
in front of the whole town.

But what I didn't want to do was
embarrass her.

And I did that a little, so that's why I
agreed to drop out of the play.

You dropped out of the play?

Yeah.

Yeah, Ronnie said that if I agreed to
drop out of the play, then he would

rewrite the first act so that Juliet
didn't die.

You have any idea who'd want to hurt
Ronald?

Or you, for that matter?

Hayden. Stage manager.

He definitely hated me for getting the
role.

He hated Ronnie for him giving it to me.

I don't know, maybe he messed things up
with a sandbag trying to get me out of

the picture and decided to... Get rid of
Ronnie instead.

I thought you were more of a Louis
L'Amour man.

It's research.

I'm seeing if anything clicks.

Dad, you aren't going to believe this.

Mr. McGrath is letting Hayden step into
direct. And he's now playing Romeo, too.

Don't you think that gives a motive?

Romeo and Juliet are canceled.

Mr. McGrath said this was just a speed
bump.

So? Don't you think that confirms
Hayden's motive?

I mean, he was... This isn't some
theatrical whodunit, Maddie.

This is a real-life murder, murder.

With real-life consequences.

I know that. I... I was just trying to
help.

I can't believe we actually got a tip on
our hotline.

Where are you, ma'am?

This is a big one.

What do we tell?

None of them.

I have no idea.

The play's been canceled.

No, no, no, no, no. Mr. McGrath said we
need to keep rehearsing. He said you

were the best detective and you would
catch the killer soon.

Looks like your attempt to stab everyone
in the back got you exactly what you

wanted.

I mean...

Sure, maybe figuratively, but not, you
know, literally.

Look, the truth is, I was hoping this
thing would flop, so Ronnie would get

canceled from the local directing pool.

You're not a fan?

I mean, he got all his gigs because he
teaches theater at the community

college? I mean, are you kidding me?

He also got fired from his previous job
for dating one of his students.

Look, now I'm stuck trying to salvage
this dumpster fire of a script. It's a

lose-lose for me, okay? Because if they
play tanks, I'm the scapegoat. And if

it's a big hit, well, guess what?

It's a long, slow clap for Mr. Orson
Welles' wannabe.

Well, your fingerprints were found on
the murder weapon that you said that you

misplaced. Well, I'm the prop master, so
if they weren't on the weapon, I would

be a little confused.

Wait, let me ask you this, prop master.

Okay. Why use real knives?

Ronnie said it looked too fake and
demanded realism.

As if anybody would ever notice. I mean,
most people in Blue Ridge think Hamlet's

a fancy omelette.

If you want a real suspect, just go over
there, knock on Conor McGrath's door,

and say, hey, McGrath.

Yeah.

He barely knew the victim.

Well, Ronnie lied to him to get him to
fund the entirely unnecessary fly

system.

He also went way over budget, got Mr.
McGrath to cover the excess.

Speaking of which, I got a peek at that
little budget.

Ronnie was really splurged on himself in
someone else.

He bought tickets for flights to Myrtle
Beach last week on the production dime

for research.

I'm telling you, if I caught on so easy,
I promise you Conor McGrath would.

He doesn't just give away money. You
know the guy, okay? And if you cross

him, what do you think's going to
happen?

Anyway, I believe that's what you refer
to as motive.

Who's the new muscle?

My nephew.

Where's Kansas?

On assignment.

So let's talk about Ronald and your
whereabouts at the moment of his demise.

Why would I kill my director, Sheriff,
and jeopardize my whole production?

Because the play was losing money hand
over fist. Not for nothing, as they say.

But I could afford to lose this amount
of money on a hundred plays, so, you

know. Okay, then revenge.

You hate being cheated.

And Ronald, well, he was using your
money for first-class flights, five-star

resorts.

You can do better than that, Sheriff.

Let me tell you a story I know about
you.

About me?

Yeah. Oh.

Well, I love a good story.

You were an outstanding pitcher in high
school.

I saw an article up in the museum.

Now, your senior year, you picked sixth.

No hitters in a row.

In the last game of the season, you were
going for number seven, which would have

been the state record.

Now you got to the last out.

Now this wasn't just a no-hitter.

It was a perfect game.

And up steps Steve Elliott to the plate.

Now Steve Elliott's the big slugger for
the other team.

So you throw the first pitch.

And he lays down a punt to screw up your
no-hitter.

Safe.

There goes your streak.

There goes your perfect game.

That is a good story.

That's only the first act.

So you graduate, you leave, and go make
a fortune. But Steve Elliott, he stays

in town, he opens up a family
restaurant.

He does pretty well for himself until
the crisis of 2008.

His restaurant goes into foreclosure.
Tragically.

Now the whole town, they agree, they're
not going to bid on this.

At the auction.

They're going to take care of their own.

But in the last minute, there's a
bitter.

You.

You bought the restaurant for a song.

And then you bulldozed it.

And donated the land to the town.

Under the condition they would build a
new baseball field.

I love baseball.

It's America's pastime.

We should catch a game sometime.

What's your alibi?

Two things. One, I was in a meeting on
the other side of the county.

Ready, honey? Two, as a lover of the
arts, there is more

than one reason to finance a play.

You ready for dinner, my lady?

Mm-hmm.

Hello, Sheriff.

Let's get Italian.

Italian sauce.

I did not see that coming.

What?

I just haven't gone out and actually
just had fun with anyone in a while.

A long time, actually.

And not with a guy who took me anywhere
other than suds and buds.

I'm having a really good time, too.

Although, our relationship is definitely
a little complicated.

You and your boss, me and my boss.

If you ask me, it's kind of like we're
two star-crossed lovers doomed by the

strong ties to their family.

Except for that doesn't work out, so...

Dixie.

I've been thinking about this for a
while now.

And Jeremiah, I mean, he's pretty much

involved with every bad thing that
happens here in Blue Ridge.

And I get what he means to you. I know
he helped your family a lot.

So I would understand if, I don't know,
maybe right now you just...

Thought maybe we'd be better as friends.

Is that how you really feel?

No.

Honestly, that's not what I want.

Well, neither do I.

Well, good.

Well, good.

Liv.

If you promise me that Jeremiah won't
get in trouble...

I think I know where the next shipment's
headed.

I promise.

Mom said you wanted to see me?

Yeah. Yes.

Uh, will you have a seat?

Am I in trouble?

No.

In fact, I've run into a dead end on a
case, and I really could use someone

with a fresh perspective, someone that
is clued in to everything that's

happened.

That is, if you're still willing to help
me.

Well, of course I'll still help you.

Great.

Let's get to work.

All right. So we're looking at...

Let's go over this one more time.

We got four sets of fingerprints on the
murder weapon giving us four prime

suspects.

Janet, Dean, Hayden, and Dwayne.

It is not Dwayne. Dwayne said he used a
knife to cut his bologna sandwich.

Now I'm starting to think that you're
right all along about the fan bag. It is

related. What if Hayden, who was in
charge of the panel, tried to knock Dean

out so he could take the lead? And when
that didn't work out, he killed Ronnie

to get both parts. That's right.

But what about Janet and Dean?

Well, I don't see their motive. They
have nothing to gain from Ronnie's

death.

But Dean, he seemed genuinely afraid for
his life.

But what about the argument I heard?

Marital issues.

We all have them from time to time.

And I heard Dean and Ronnie arguing,
too.

Well, Dean said that they were running
lines because they were given a rewrite.

And Jenna confirmed the rewrite, and
Dean, he gave me a copy of the script.

Dean is not a good enough actor to pull
off what I heard. He was legit angry.

Probably because it's your warrant.

Judge Lehman signed off?

Sir? You're able to join up?

I'm going to pay Jeremiah a visit.

Go. I'll stay here and study the
evidence.

Let's roll.

Jeremiah, we got a warrant.

We're coming in.

One, three.

One, two, three.

Clear. Clear.

Clear.

Looks like they hightailed it out of
here.

Huh.

Go get the toolbox. Let's break this up.

All right.

Close to juice.

How's it going?

It'll be all messed up by tomorrow
morning, but it's just a little extra.

Hmm.

How'd you know the plan was working,
Uncle?

Well, boys, I may have let it slip to
Dixie as to the whereabouts of our small

operations in hopes that she would pass
on said information to that deputy that

she's been seeing.

By the way, I've known about from day
one.

So, gentlemen, at this point, it looks
like Jeremiah Hughes

is going national.

Yep, Jeremiah Hughes is on the loose.

After he left, I kept looking at our
suspects, and I couldn't come up with

anything. So I stopped thinking like a
detective and started thinking like an

actor. I like where this is going.

Okay, this is a script revision Dean
gave you. He said Ronald rewrote the

script. And that's what I heard from the
hallway when he said it ends now.

Right. This is Ronald's official script.

I mean, he tracks everything.

Every dialogue change, every new stage
direction, and every single rewrite in

this.

Guess what?

Those lines aren't in here.

Also, every cast member was required to
get a headshot for the board.

Me, Sherry, Aiden, Dean, even Dwayne.

This is the one for Janet.

That's the hotel room.

And if you look real closely at the
floor, you see two things.

A monogrammed overnight bag.

With the name Ronald O'Malley.

And that's the script.

He took the photo. He took the photo.

There's your motive.

Great work.

Now we just got to find the star-crossed
lovers.

Yes, and it's a good thing rehearsal
just began, and I know exactly where

Juliet is.

I already know you took theater classes
at Ridge Creek Community.

Yes.

I'm going to go on a limb and say that
Ronald is your teacher.

Yes.

Who took that photo?

Ronald?

When and where was it taken?

A few weeks ago in Myrtle Beach.

He was so cultured.

So different.

He said I had the it factor. And that he
believed in me.

And that's all I ever wanted.

I went to go tell him I was in love with
him and I was going to leave Dean.

And then he told me that I was just a
showman.

So that's the real conversation that you
had at the office where you were crying?

Yes, yes, but I was hurt and devastated,
but I didn't kill him.

If anything, it made me realize what a
good man I have in Dean.

Someone willing to look like a fool for
me.

Does Dean know about the affair?

No, no, and it would break his heart if
he finds out.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Dad!

Listen to him. Nobody.

Get back.

Dean, you don't want to do this.

Put it down, Dean.

Put the gun down.

Put the weapon down. You drop it.

Drop it. It's understandable.

Your wife was having an affair.

Yeah, I knew it the second I looked at
him.

Wait, put his hands on you.

That's why you got the part of Romeo.

To get in between the two of them.

We get it, Dean. That's why you did all
that free work for Connor, right?

Put it down.

Put it down. Okay.

You know, it was really clever how that
