The fuck is wrong with you Matt?

Matt.

Come on, get up.

Come on.

What did I tell you

about drinking

in front of my fucking son?

Come on. Get the fuck up, Matt.

Yeah, get up.

What's going on?

It's your fucking brother.

He's totally wasted again.

No, you got to go screw. Come on.

Where's he supposed to go?

I don’t fucking know. He's a grown man.

He's going to have some money saved up or something.

We can't have this shit going on here anymore.

Matt. Matt.

Why’d you have to go and do this again?

Here’s your bag, man.

It's weird to think

that just two months ago,

I was fighting the Taliban

high in the mountains of Afghanistan.

Two months ago, I’d close my eyes at night,

fearful I may never open them again.

It's weird to think

that just two months ago,

I came home.

Home to my sister,

to my baby nephew,

to quiet Sunday mornings.

I'm not myself yet.

So here I am in a motel.

God knows where.

Trying to find my way.

It's 2 a.m...

Usually the booze and the pills knock me out just right.

But not tonight.

Tonight, the nightmares are back.

It's always the same.

Ramirez

pinned down, screaming for my help.

There's nothing I can do.

It's 2010.

I'm home to a wrecked economy.

What few jobs there once were

have vanished.

Least for me.

I mean, I'm a guy who spent his last

few years a nomad, a savage

living in the mountains, killing for survival.

All they see in my eyes is rage.

I mean, how do you ask a guy like that

to bag your groceries, to take your lunch order?

They don't see a hero.

They see a guy

they wouldn't trust to drive their children to school.

Hey, handsome.

Hey.

I’m Brandi.

Brandy, huh? - Mhm.

Like the booze?

It’s with an ‘I’ at the end.

Oh, all right.

You got a smoke?

No. Uh, sorry. I just, uh.

Just killed the last one on the way over here.

‘Kay... I probably have one in here,

it’s just such a fucking mess.

Looks like a fucking black hole.

Oh! Mhmm.

So what’s a nice guy like you doing in a shithole like this?

I’m new in town thought I'd meet some new people.

Lucky you,

you met me.

So, why’d you pick this dump?

Uh, I was in Afghanistan, and...

Crashed at my sister's for a little bit,

but her boyfriend's not a big fan of me, so...

Kicked your ass to the curb?

Yeah, something like that.

- You were in Afghanistan? - Mm hmm.

Like shooting guns and shit?

Yeah. - Oh...

A real American hero.

Yeah.

I can't even get a job right now, Brandi.

So I guess I'm not much of anything, am I?

So, what's your name?

I'm Matt.

With an ‘M.’

Brandi with an ‘I.”

Well, Matt with an ‘M,’

you seem like a nice guy.

I bet I can get you a job.

Really?

I know some people here.

You're shitting me.

Why don't you take down my number?

Alright.

Give me a call tomorrow...

You want to just give it to me, or?

No, I got a piece of paper in here.

Okay.

Mm hmm!

Alright...

Give me a call tomorrow.

Okay.

- Nice meeting you. - Yeah, you too.

Hey, what's up, Brandi, it's Matt, uhh.

Just calling about that job you mentioned last night.

Hey, Brandi, it's Matt.

It's about 3:30. I'm just, uh, just checking in again.

Hey, it’s Matt.

Uhh, we met last night, bar parking lot.

I called, you didn’t answer.

Really?

Yeah, no problem. I’ll see you in a little bit.

Hi Bill. Hey, darlin.

Matt Benning. - Bill.

Nice to meet you.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

How are you around firearms?

Uh, I spent the last four years in the Army, sir.

I'm going to offer you a job.

The easiest job in America.

Look at-- All you've got to do is if anything weird

happens in here, you call me on my cell phone.

A hobo outside is takin’ a shower in his own urine,

you call me. Or if...

If the cops come in here. You call me.

You got that? Now, here's a, here's a scenario. A purple

and blue giraffe walks in and starts

scratching his butt on the doorframe.

What do you do?

I'm not sure I follow you on that.

You call me on- you call me on my cell phone.

I’m here with you.

It's, it’s real simple, uhh...

Show me your index finger. All right.

- That, is your trigger finger? - Yes sir.

And also, you use it, if anything out of the average

or out of the normal happens around here,

you use it to...

Call you on your cell phone, sir.

Absolutely.

- I got it. - Okay.

He’s a smart guy.

Yeah, you did good.

You got the job, son.

You start tomorrow night.

- How's that? - Thank you, sir.

- All right. - Thank you.

I got to go in the back room and go over some receipts.

I’ll see you tomorrow night, son!

He's cool.

He's the best.

I dunno how to run this thing. I never use one of these before.

Don’t worry about it. You'll get the hang of it, and

nobody comes around here the day shift.

Monotony.

If you didn't know the definition of that word,

working at this place sure would have

been a great way to find out.

The highlight, of course, was when Brandi would stop in

to check in on me.

Matt!

Technically, she was my supervisor.

Where did you get this thing?

Uncle Bill left for a week, so I let myself borrow his car.

Close up. Let's go for a joy ride.

Uh, Brandi. Uncle Bill’s not paying me to go on, joyrides.

First of all, he's not going to find out.

And if he did? He wouldn’t give a fuck.

I guess technically you're my boss a little bit.

Would you say that?

Fuck, yes, I'm your boss.

Get in the car. You.

I just wish you remembered the tense things.

If it’s windy, this thing’s gonna blow around everywhere.

Like this?

Brandi!

Hey, what’s up?

I was looking for you everywhere.

Sorry. I guess I thought I'd make it back before you woke up.

Nah, it's all good.

See those rocks,

up there? It’s where I scattered my mom’s ashes.

I was all by myself. Didn’t even have a funeral.

Had to pick up her ashes from the county coroner's.

I thought that's where she would wanna be.

You've uh... picked a really beautiful spot.

I really wish we could’ve had that

normal mother-daughter relationship.

Yeah, I wonder where my buddy, Ramirez is buried at.

El Paso, probably, near his family.

Who was that?

Friend from the war.

One day he’s just gone.

Yeah, I know how that goes.

Victor Hollow’s EA calling, how may I help you?

Wow, finally, I've been on hold for like 45 minutes.

Sir, how can I help you?

I need to talk to somebody about changing my meds.

They aren't working right.

Sir, what kind of medications are you taking?

Certalene, uh, Trezadone...

Oh, okay, uh no.

You gotta call a behavioral medicine

service provider for that.

This is not the right place.

How are you doing?

I'm about to bash my head through the wall.

Been listening to that hold music for almost an hour.

Oh, you finally decided to call them?

Are you gonna pay for that?

It's been expired for a week.

You should be paying me to get rid of it.

You’ve reached the behavioral medicine

service providers.

No one's available to take your call.

If this is a psychiatric emergency.

Please hang up immediately and dial 911--

Why don’t you just stop taking the medication

so that you don't have to drive all the way over

to see, a bunch of doctors that don’t

- give a shit? - Hey check this thing out.

It’s sick, no?

Let's go look at it.

Hey, oh. What’s up?

- Are you Matt? - Yes, sir--

- Hey what's going on? I'm Mike. - Nice to meet you.

- It's my wife. - Hey.

- How's it going? - This is the culprit, brother.

Right here. Yeah?

- Yeah. - Looks good, man.

Brother she's indestructible. Listen honey in 30 years

you’re gonna hear the same old B.S. all day.

Yeah. This is way before GPS. I thought

I was totally fucked.

Yeah, but I, you know what?

I-I remembered about a place called

Holston Wells. Abandoned ranch out the middle of desert.

A huge water tank still stands there.

- Really? - Yeah.

Always filled with water, man.

Maybe the rain fills that up or something...

- Do you want a beer? - Yes.

Got the tags for it? Registration and everything?

Yeah. Linda! Linda,

honey, you got the tags?

Yeah, yeah. I’m coming!

Thank you, ma'am.

I’ll give it to you for 900.

Bargaining is supposed to be the other way around.

Oh, is that how it works?

Yeah, yeah. He's supposed to be the one

bringing the price down. Oh, is that our deal?

Well, she's the boss...

I’m getting paid in a couple days.

You know what?

What do you think? Yes?

No? Maybe? She's... the boss says yes,

- bud, you’ve got a deal. - Alright, alright.

This is age 40. For the past two weeks.

Ey, you know, her uncle Bill’s out here?

He's out of town don’t worry about it.

Where's Brandi, for that matter?

I been calling and calling her and she’s nowhere to be found.

Just so we get this dirt bike with her.

Uh, she does that sometimes. Get used to it.

Get yourself out of it, man.

Hello? Oh, hey, Mike.

What's up, man? How are you doing?

I'm good. I'm good. So you. You-uh...

You still want get this bike?

Oh, yeah, for sure. Hey, I'm

sorry I didn't call you back sooner.

My, uh, girlfriend sort of disappeared on me

for a couple of days.

She, uh. She's going to be right down there.

Bro, listen, I just got home from work.

I can come pick you up my truck.

Thank you.

I'll take good care of it.

Oh, look, who came back from the dead.

Yeah, I left you a bunch of messages.

You had a lot of work to do.

Okay.

Yeah, yeah, sure.

I’ll head over.

Hello?

You've got to be fucking kidding me.

I got to wait two months to see a doctor.

that’s nearly 3 hours from here?

Okay, I guess I'll see you in a couple months.

Who was that?

Clinic finally called back.

Why do you take those pills?

Every time I ask you this,

You either change the subject or turn the television on.

Why’re you always pestering about that shit, huh?

Why are you always evading the question?

Why’re you always trying to bore into my mind

like some kind of termite?

Maybe I don’t tell you, because it's

none of your goddamn business.

Matt, Matt. That's not what I was trying to do. Like,

how long have you known me? You don't trust me?

I'll tell you what I think it is.

You want to feel like you're rescuing some wounded

little puppy.

- I ain't your fucking puppy. - No!

Alright?

I’ll take a shower myself.

Adults suffering from kidney disease.

Please ask your doctor-

Emily is mourning the loss of

25 year old Gary Jensen from apparent suicide.

He was a Calvary Scout in the first Armored

Brigade, recently returned from Afghanistan.

It looks like sunny ahead for the rest of the week.

Tommy Rains has our forecast.

Look who came crawling back.

I'm sorry for prying earlier.

I just, I see you hurting and I want to know

if there's something I can do. I get it.

You've been through a lot and you don't like to talk about it.

It's just when you wake up

in the middle of the night from those nightmares...

All I’m saying is, if you talk about it,

maybe you won't have to take that shit that the VA

Doctors give you.

The second before I open my eyes...

It's like I'm right there again.

I just can’t shake the terror I saw in his eyes.

He didn’t wanna die in those dusty mountains.

Bullets smashing to dust

that hit the rocks all around me.

I watched as his life bled out of him.

So I can let what happened paralyze me.

Or I can numb myself.

God knows what these pills will do to me long term.

And I know for sure the booze ain't no vitamin drink.

But for now, it's what works.

What are you hoping for at the V.A. clinic?

I'm hoping for a miracle, Brandi. I’m hoping

I walk in there, one day

and the doctor sees straight through me.

And just like that, all my problems are gone,

nothing but blue skies ahead.

I won't be some hollowed out shell, floating.

You gotta stare that shit straight in the face.

You gotta get through the side, you keep taking-

You know, sometimes it really pisses me off

when you talk about shit

you don't understand, Brandi.

You know, there's mornings I feel like taking a machine

gun and blowing this entire neighborhood to shit.

Other mornings, I can’t even get out of the bed.

You've been through what I've been through.

You wouldn't think it was so easy.

You think that you have it rough

because your mom died when you were deployed?

You ever been locked in a room and your mother's

boyfriend is insistently tapping on the door?

Your mom, she's so fucking high,

she doesn't even know where she is.

You know he's going to get in. He has before.

I might as well just have the fucking door unlocked.

He smells like cigarettes, booze.

You know what’s because it's happened before

and it's going to happen again and again and again.

Mom never stood up to him.

It's like a fucking circus animal. Anything for her

little treats.

I didn't know, I’m sorry.

Who's calling you?

Oh, I don't know.

It's Uncle Bill.

I got to go.

Yeah, go.

How many times do I got to tell you? Huh?

Don’t come around here.

Don't you ever come around here.

I don't need your goddamn business.

Need your help, Uncle Bill! Come on, man I know I got no money.

I know. Didn't mean to piss you off, or anything.

Took you long enough.

Who's that? Is that the cops?

No, it's better. It’s the US Goddamn Army.

Put your hands all the way high. Put them up!

I didn’t hurt nobody, man!

Raise your hands and come over real slow. Yeah.

We don't want to do anything stupid or I’ll fucking

- blow your brains out. - Come on man.

Listen to me. Put your hands up or I will shoot!

I didn't do anything! - Hey! Watch it.

Hey, put your fucking hands up!

Put them up!

Let's see how he does without a shoulder, huh?

Like that! How about the other shoulder?

- Yeah? - Stop, stop, stop.

You know, he was a pretty good guy

before the meth rotted out his brain.

Some people just can't handle the fun, hey?

Here, clean up the mess.

Yeah.

- Hey. - Hey.

Who was that guy?

We worked together.

Because what if we go to the bar?

Yeah, I'm down. - Yeah?

Yeah. Perfect.

You're so fucking gross.

You uh, you know, actually?

It kind of seemed like it was going to rain.

So what if I give you a ride back to your place?

What's going on, Brandi?

When you get a text, you disappear for a couple

of days sometimes. What's going on?

It’s Uncle Bill.

Yeah, Uncle Bill.

Uncle Bill, Uncle Bill, I keep hearing that.

No, he just wants me to do somethi--

How do, how do I know--

How do I know it's not the guy from the grocery

store you meet up with?

Fuck you, Matt.

You know how hard it is to keep a job around here?

If I get a text message, I've got to go.

Do you get that?

Yeah.

Yeah, I got it loud and clear.

I got it.

Matt...

Look.

Hey, what's up?

Hey, you got rid of that guy?

What the fuck is it to you, you asshole?

So are you coming up for some fun?

I got the money.

I’ll be right there.

Hey...

What's up?

Your wife around?

No, no, she left. She's gone.

We had a fight. She took the kids to their grandparents.

Serves you right.

Hey, Brandi.

Uh, this is probably like the fourth message I'm leaving you.

I'm sorry about what I said... a few days ago.

I'm going to go to the bar.

If you, uh. If you want to meet up.

I'll give you $5.

If you give me a ride.

Why don't you ask somebody here with a car?

It might be a little bit easier.

They're all creeps.

Plus, riding your bike looks cool.

You don't have to pay me anything.

I, uh, where are you're trying to go?

A couple of miles out of town. Gonna catch

up with some friends.

Have you ever been on one of these before?

Wouldn’t be my first.

That's a yes?

Yeah, hop on.

Matt Benning. Hey, Matt Benning.

Nice to meet you.

You uh, you care to shoot?

Sure. See those six plates

down there? Lock them down.

You a veteran, Matt Benning?

- Oh, man. - Huh? Come on!

If I was, I wouldn’t have any money to pay you with if I lost.

Oh, brother, you don't need any money out here, loser has to

wear the fox only.

Todd! Do a little dance!

So what do you say, Matt Benning? You game?

Huh, I am.

Oh, you pulled that last one again!

That looks like... you’re wearing the fucking fox!

Give us a fucking show.

Shake that fox tail!

You got some smooth moves, brother.

Shit. I got some, uh...

Some other friends.

Very uh...

What do I say? Eccentric bunch.

And yeah, and I think you'd be very interested in meeting them.

One of them especially.

Kit Kat!

Oh man.

This is a good friend of mine, Matt Benning.

Well, hello, Matt Benning. Uh huh.

You wanna go for a walk?

I’ll show you around.

Matt Benning, Release Theater Caveman.

You ever seen stars like this?

Nerve standing province...

Winter high in the mountains.

Shit.

What's so funny?

It’s just that... line usually works on city folk.

You known Jason a long time?

He was in the military, huh?

Yeah.

He joined the Navy when he was 17.

Did some special ops shit.

Real badass stuff,

he never talks about it.

Yeah, those guys get into it.

Yeah.

And then he got out and did some deep

water, oil welding on the oil rigs.

He’s always pushing himself to the edge of death.

And then he came out here.

Well, if we're going to hang out here for a bit,

we might as well get comfortable right?

I'm sorry, I can't be doing this.

I- I’m, I'm seeing somebody.

She disappears on me all the time, but she's--

she's my girlfriend. So...

She disappears on you?

Yeah.

Yeah, she's a-- she does. All the time.

So who's your girl you're seeing?

Girlfriend?

Her name's Brandi.

Brandi Wells, you... you know her, or something?

Just go up to the window.

Look inside, take a look.

Just do it, It's my uncle's house.

You're not going to get shot.

I just want you to see it for yourself.

How long has this been going on?

Always.

Her mom's boyfriend got her

into it when she was in high school.

Look, I'm not saying give up on her.

I just want you to know what you're dealing with here.

Hey.

Oh, you need a ride again?

Where’s you end up this time?

Yeah. Yeah, I'll head over there.

Right.

Beautiful view, isn't it?

I swear, you act like you've never seen

a pile of rocks before, Matt.

I dunno, I can stay out here all night. Watch the stars come out.

Oh, I couldn't.

I got to get back to town. I have things I’ve gotta do.

We've been riding that dirt bike of yours for hours.

Really?

What kind of things?

- Just-- - Yeah, What if...

I told you, for instance, I lost the keys to the bike?

- Huh? - Don’t!

What the fuck, Matt?

Swear to God if there are

rattlesnakes in here, Matt, I’m gonna kill you.

No, Matt!

Matt, give me the fucking keys.

No, Brandi.

Why are you being such a bitch?

Why are you in such a hurry to get back into town?

I dunno what kind of weird caveman rape fantasy

you’re trying to work out but it's not

going to fucking happen.

Give me the keys!

Brandi, no. Why are you in such a hurry

to get back to town?

None of your fucking business.

You know, secrets are like spiderwebs Brandi.

- What? - The invisible threads

are everywhere. But you don't realize they’re there

until you run straight into one of them.

- Are you fucking high? - But once you run into

that first thread, the entire spider web becomes apparent to

you, all interconnected.

Why are you so desperate to get back into town?

Fuck you, I'll start the bike myself.

I don't know how to work this thing.

Oh my God, why are you doing this, Matt?

Why are you in such a hurry to get back into town, Brandi?

Huh?

I’ll just fucking walk home.

You're just going to ignore me?

You know, you're like, 2 hours from anywhere out here.

Hey, hey, Turn around. Look at me.

I know you're a fucking drug addict!

You're a drug addict. You're a drug addict.

What’s that quart of whiskey you drink every day, Matt?

Or those pills that you take

one after another, like fucking pez?

Just because you have a doctor's note doesn't

mean you're not a junkie.

So why don't you get off your high horse

and tell me the truth?

Oh, cat’s got your tongue?

I know the truth.

You're too big of a fucking pussy

to handle What happened to you in Afghanistan?

That's the fucking truth.

I'm a drug addict.

Who the fuck are you to judge me?

I brought you out here because I wanted to help you Brandi!

What the fuck is wrong with you? Huh?

What's wrong with you?

Oh... it's amazing.

It's like being dead for 10 seconds.

I swear. You have to try it.

Brandi, you got to stop. Your mom died from this shit.

You got to stop.

Hey...

Don’t listen to me when I get like that, okay?

Hey, at least I feel things, Matt. Not like you

some overmedicated fucking zombie.

Mm-mm.

That’s not me.

I'm burning.

Burning my way through life.

I'm going to come out the other end,

either a whole new person or nothing but ashes.

But you?

Sweetheart, you're never going

to feel a goddamn thing

taking all those fucking pills.

Come here.

Come here, I wanna feel you next to me.

So good.

Bye, Brandi.

Goodbye.

Pathetic.

Hi, Matt.

What are you thinking?

Pack of smokes?

A pack of smokes, please.

Here you go.

How you been?

- Oh, I'm good. - Going to the party tonight?

- Can we take your car? - Yeah.

Oh, good. Let's go. Bye, Matt.

Matt!

Matt!

Matt!

What? I need to talk to you.

What do you need, Brandi?

Brandi, I don't have time for this,

shit right now.

Matt.

Brandi, what's going on?

Brandi, Brandi, Brandi, Brandi...

I tried to go to Chad’s

to get money, he said he owes me.

Who? Who?

Brandi, what is going on? Look at me.

Chad... Chad tried to rape me.

He tried to rape me, Matt.

Come on, come on.

Brandi, I said, isn’t he fucking weak?

What the hell's wrong with you?

Hey, hey! Matt! That’s enough.

What is this?

Don’t worry about it. I know this place really well.

Sit down.

No.

Sit down.

You have to try it.

Come on.

Sex is so much better when you're on meth.

It’s so much better.

Come on.

It's good.

It’s good, right?

After I started using meth...

things finally started to make sense.

How you doing?

Uncle Bill's irrationally

overconfident personality.

I got a little treat here for you.

Brandi's disappearing acts.

But first you got to do a little favor for Uncle Bill.

By now, I was totally hooked.

It was their plan all along.

Find a wounded soul they could make their puppet.

I've got a package.

That I need delivered across the desert mountains to a

very dear friend of mine.

How much?

30 k.

It's deposited, that lying piece of shit, now--

But I didn’t care.

It's all the same to me.

- The inconsistency of the product.

I wasn't cut out for a normal life.

It turned out.

I don't want you to buy into any of that shit.

I want you to get the money in your hands

or get the hell out of there.

- You understand? - Yes, sir. Yeah.

All right, now, you get back here unscathed.

There's a grand in it for you.

The grand and the product.

Same deal we got going.

Oh. Oh, my

entrepreneurial little junkie.

All right, I'll tell you what.

If you take the whole deal in product,

I'm on.

You got it.

All right.

Look, it's getting late.

Like we said. No roads.

All desert.

Yes, sir.

Alright!

Let’s shoot guns.

Polish your guns, bend over!

I love that little thing.

But yeah, you know what you’re doing.

I don’t understand how we don't have

any fucking money,

when Uncle Bill gave you something to sell?

Because I took- I took it all in product. You got to sell it.

Who the fuck am I going to sell it to?

I don’t fucking know--

You do-- Daniel. I can. I can. I can call uh, Daniel. Uhh...

Sell it to Ryan.

He was buys a lot. Sell it to Ryan.

- Shit doesn’t even fuckin-- - That’s why we need to sell it!

I can't do everything around here. Okay?

That's what we got to sell. Some of it.

You can't do everything around here?

Are you fucking kidding me?

Get the fucking phone to work so that

I can sell it.

What the fuck are you doing, Matt?

Why are you making so much noise?

I'm trying to clean this fucking mess, Brandi.

I found an ad for a rehab place, I’m fucking calling them.

Where are you gonna get money for rehab?

You...

You want to live your life like this, huh?

People like you and me, we don't belong

in cookie cutter houses.

Wake up, you little lovebirds.

I’m coming in...

Wake up in there.

Brandi...

I brought you a little present. Here you go.

Oh, Kilo...

You know?

Uncle Bill...

You know what?

Target practice.

Yeah... When do I get to play?

Well, honey, this is a little too much gun for you.

But look, I got something perfect for a young lady.

Now, look. You line those two up and squeeze it...

Sque-- There you go!

That's it.

Here, here, now.

Left arm darling, here. Here you go...

Squeeze it.

Squeeze it. Real gentle.

Yeah, that's it.

Real gentle...

Where is she, in the John?

I’unno.

I think it's time we had some fun.

Brandi, get your ass out here!

Hey! Stay down.

Stay the fuck down!

Piece of shit!

That was fun.

Y'all have a nice afternoon.

Fuck you, Matt.

You still upset about the other night? Hm?

It was a test.

Test of your loyalty to our family.

I'm turning 60 something in a couple of days.

I got to get out of this fucking place tonight.

There's a place about five and a half hours from here.

The most beautiful strippers in the whole Western Hemisphere.

I'm going to get me some.

I'd like to take you with me...

But I need you to do me a favor.

I need you to go to the plaza.

Make a delivery, take the cash,

and then you slit his throat.

You kill that son of a bitch. Huh?

That son of a bitch?

He's been buying from the Mexicans.

Now, you do that for me,

and you’ll be my favorite.

Where is he?

Hmm?

Is he here?

Where is he? Hm?

Where’d he go?

Where is he?

Hey, I'm calling to report a methamphetamine manufacturer

and dealer.

His name is Steven James Osmond.

He goes by Uncle Bill.

He's got an abandoned trailer out in the Dead Horse Salt Flat.

The place should be covered in his fingerprints.

No, there’s nobody else I can think of.

Call fucking Ambulance you fucking moron!

Oh, you’re at Brandi’s house?

Start breathing. Come on, sweetie. Come on!

Brandi, come on! Brandi!

Brady, wake up. Shit, Shit.

Call the fucki-- I told you to fucking ambula-

Dude, I can’t! I can’t go back to jail, dude!

Call a fucking ambulance! I can’t!

I told you to call an ambulance!

I can’t go back to jail! I told you, man.

We’re torn up, man! Alright, hi.

Uh, I’m at 1128 Willowbrook Lane.

I'm-I'm reporting a drug overdose. Yes.

Send an ambulance as soon as possible.

She's not breathing. Yeah.

Send an ambulance. Alright.

Jump... Get out of my way, real quick.

Let us, let us get in there! Let us get in there.

Pinpoint.

Still no pulse.

Alright, we can start loading her up

and getting her out of here.

I got the backboard. Yep.

Hey, you get in the back, with us, okay?

That’s good stuff.

Just- just the usual, man.

Cool Thank you.

Hey, man!

Yeah...

So I heard you got ice?

I don't know what you’re talking about.

Yeah, well, a spark?

No.

I’m a friend of Ryan's.

How do you know Ryan?

Good boys. We grew up 1990. Back in the day.

Yo, I’m looking for the sponch.

You got the sponch?

This can be as painless as you want it to be!

I'll hurt you. Hit this mother fucker! Hit this!

Fuck.

Your demons finally caught up to you, Brandi...

I have to say goodbye here.

With only your mother’s ashes as our witness.

Who knows where life would have taken us.

If I don’t do something, Brandi...

soon I'll have a funeral lonelier than this.

I'm going to get rid of all that shit

I have Brandi.

Gonna go deep, deep into this desert until I run outta gas.

The desert’s either going to kill me or cure me.

It's the only choice I have.

You know I’ll always love you.

Fuck.

Fuck!

Fuck!

These may be my last few days.

I'm hallucinating.

Withdrawals are hell.

I can't find water where I thought it'd be.

I'll try and gain altitude.

Might have better luck there.

They may find my body here.

This note pinned to it.

Know that there's dignity to that.

Don't feel sad thinking of your little brother

lost alone in this vast wilderness.

Know that I'm fighting

with the last of my strength to see you again.

To see my little nephew.

There is no surrender.

This fight is my only and last chance.

I can already feel the demons

getting quieter.

Mm hmm.

Victor Howl Station, you by an Altec?

I literally have Moses

coming down the fucking mountain.

It looks like a lost hiker.

Going to need now to our... state road

51 mile marker 41, about a half mile east.

Alright, sheriff, stand by for fire.

Looks like a 25 year old male.

Possible heat exhaustion.

What's your name?

Uh, Matt Benning.

Matt, go ahead and take off that blanket for me.

You do you guys... could I just have some of that water, please?

Absolutely.

Go, go ahead and take off that blanket.

Yeah, and-and that backpack.

That's alright. Just leave it. Come on over here.

You don’t have any weapons on you, do you?

- No, sir? - Come on over here.

I've got, uh, just got a pocket knife right here.

Okay. All right. Just gonna check you real quick.

All right.

You know, get your fingers together, like you're praying.

Okay.

Man, what are you doing?

Just detaining you.

I don't know who you are.

Okay, come on over here.

Have a seat inside.

It's nice and cool.

Just relax.

Why didn't you tell me about this?

Is it registered to you?

Yes, sir. Yeah, it-it should be.

No bullets in there, I used them all.

It should be, or it is registered?

Uh, should be--

Am I gonna find a Meth that goes with this?

Is this your ID?

Yes, sir. That’s me.

Looks like there’s a missing persons report on you.

An Ashley Sullivan filed it.

You know her?

Yeah, she's my sister.

The guns registered.

You have no warrants. Good.

Before we call your sister, can you tell me one thing?

Sure.

How did you end up out here?

Because I just can't put the 2 and 2 toge--

Sometimes, man, you just got to

take matters into your own hands.

Filled up my dirt bike’s gas tank and headed straight

for the desert.

Without a couple of gallons of water, you know,

I was high as fuck. Didn’t seem crazy at all.

I was flirting with death, hoping for it.

Maybe. I don't know.

Figure I had a 50/50 chance of getting out of here alive.

Why would you purposely strain yourself out here?

Cold turkey wasn't for me, man.

I-I-I knew I'd always find a way to get more drugs.

You know?

Afghanistan taught me about the desert.

At least out here I’d have a chance.

Withdrawals, maybe they wouldn't get the better of me, you know?

Well, you are one lucky son of a bitch.

Your sister is gonna be happy to hear from me.

Yeah, she probably will be.

Yeah. Sheriff Cooper here.

We found your brother.

Yeah, he's fine.

A little dehydrated.

Looks like he was doing some detox thing out here.

Yeah, well, there's a lot

we don't know about our family members.

Yeah. Now, how far are you from here?

5 hours?

Yeah, we can keep him here for a bit.

Okay. Just relax, have some water.

Victor Howell Station. You got a E.T.A. on fire?

About 25 minutes out, over.

10-4, thanks.

Billy. Billy, it's me, man. Open the door.

Open the fucking door, Billy. I know you’re in there.

Open the door.

Billy!

Billy.

Hey, this is Matt from Veterans Outreach Center.

I'm over at 1476 Horatio Street.

I've got an opioid overdose,

just administered naloxone, left nostril.

Yeah-yeah, it's Billy.

That kid just came back from deployment seven months ago.

Yeah, I'll see you in 9 minutes.
