Help!

JACK: Where's Anna?

What?

JACK: Where's Anna?

Who the heck is Anna?

JACK MURMURS - Oh, you need to rest.

I need to find Anna... - Your muscles are in spasm.

He's hallucinating.

HE PLAYS DRUM

HE CHANTS

HE PLAYS NATIVE AMERICAN FLUTE

This woo-woo bollocks works then, does it?

SIREN WAILS

INDISTINCT CHATTER

Will she die?

This the reserve? - Mh-hmm.

BOY: Chief.

Cheers.

How'd I get here? - Hunters found you on the mountain.

My wife and daughter?

No.

You got something I could borrow, like a truck or something?

Ey h e e. - Alright.

Have you ever ridden one of those?

No problem.

Fuck's sake.

HE SIGHS

Fuck.

SHE SIGHS

SHE GASPS

How's your head? - Ah...

What? - I had to drag you down the mountain.

Where's Anna? - We don't know.

Oh, shit.

SHE GRUNTS

ANGELA GROANS Shit...

SHE GRUNTS AND GASPS

Angela, you almost died up there.

You rush out again and...

Thank you for saving my life up there.

How about I throw in some coffee too?

This was supposed to be my executive mansion.

I'm no longer an executive

so it's falling apart and the pipes are all frozen.

But the bright side is...

we have tonnes of firewood

and nobody knows we're here.

Thank you.

Mm.

Sorry, that's disgusting.

I've had worse.

Who'd you kill up there?

Whoever it is, I think your daughter has something to do with it.

And I'd be surprised if Jack wasn't involved.

Is that your husband's real name?

You kept calling it out in your sleep last night.

What do you want?

To feel safe.

What's that got to do with me? - Self-defence is one thing.

What the hell else have I become accessory to?

SIREN BLARES

What the fuck?

I had to call the police.

You did what?

My daughter's missing.

We found Anna.

Where is she? - She's at the hospital. She's alive.

SHE EXHALES

Thanks be to Jesus.

OK, OK.

DENISE: They said there's no brain damage.

Why won't they let me see her?

She has to answer a few questions first.

Questions?

Do you have any idea why Anna would do something like this?

No.

Is it OK if I talk to her?

Uh...

well, they said she, um...

bruised her throat, so...

speaking might be hard.

Angela, I have to ask you.

Where's the chief?

Uh...

I was gonna ask you the same question.

You drove away together.

From the scene of a shooting.

A shooting?

Constable McGillen.

He's not dead, is he?

He said you were there.

He's a monster.

Denise...

That's why Anna did this to herself.

She'd do anything to get away from him.

And I don't blame her.

SHE INHALES Hate this place.

Last time I was here I was told my son was dead

and now...

She's going to be OK, she's going to be OK.

Mrs Worth?

How is Anna?

I'm Sarah.

Sarah Nickel.

And this is my daughter, Rosa.

We found her.

ANGELA: You found her? - SARAH: Rosa did.

Shall I sit with you?

ANGELA: Everything's going to be alright.

All you have to do is get better.

Then we'll go somewhere, somewhere far away.

And forget about all this.

Anna, listen to me.

I left him up there

on the mountainside.

I made that decision. Not you.

Your father's past came back to hurt us, and he hurt us.

He killed your boy.

Almost shot you doing it, and that is why I left him up there.

But that's on me.

My darlin' girl.

We're safe now. - SHE SNIFFLES

I finished it.

What do you mean you finished it?

What do you mean?

HE PANTS

Woah.

Fuck's sake.

Fuck.

Woah, bollocks.

HE SIGHS

Oh, fuck off.

What did she ask you?

Anna?

The cop.

Did she ask about the cabin?

We talked about Anna.

Well, what did you tell her?

If you're so fecking worried about the cops, why don't you leave town?

What the hell's keeping you here?

You.

WOMAN: Can I get you anything else?

No, thanks.

SHE SIGHS

I saved your life

you saved mine.

We'requits. You can feck off with a clean conscience.

Christ, if I were you, I'd be in Acapulco by now.

While you make a deal with the Feds?

What?

Look, I know how this works.

I'm not a career criminal but I'm not an idiot.

If they back you into a corner, you're gonna snitch.

SHE LAUGHS

Go fuck yourself.

D'you know what they do to snitches where I come from?

I don't know anything about you.

She murdered him, didn't she?

Anna.

Then tried to kill herself.

You can trust me, Angela.

You have to trust me. We have to trust each other.

You wanna know what happened?

He taped us to these.

Then he, er...

hit me on the head with his sock full of billiard balls.

Then he stabbed me girlfriend in the thigh with a broken bottle.

Why would he do that? - Fucked if I know.

He must have had a reason. - You tell me.

Mr...? - Jackson.

Mr Jackson.

What brought you to Alberta?

Well, I suppose the love of a good woman

that and the chance to make a decent living.

Oh, I had big dreams for this place

till he shat all over them.

Why? - Well, I hate to disappoint you, sweetheart

but he's not just a drunk, he's a psychopath.

He came in here wasted, for starters.

Made some bizarre claims about men from his past.

I seemed to fit the bill, you know, being British.

I told him I...

I had no idea what he was on about, so...

so...

he...

I'll be alright in a minute.

It's probably just a touch of PTSD.

Mr Jackson. - Yeah?

Do I look like a douchebag in this uniform?

What?

Do I look like a douchebag? - No.

Are you sure about that? - Yes.

Then tell me the truth. Did you come here to kill the chief?

Don't be so daft.

You leave him and his family alone.

ANNA COUGHS

Does it still hurt?

Thanks.

I'm sorry.

Don't be.

This is pretty.

Oh, have it.

Oh, uh...

Thanks.

My mum gave it to me.

I... I don't want it anymore.

I often think about escaping.

Maybe I should be apologising to you.

Mm.

That would be weird.

Can you make her go away?

DOOR CLOSES

How is she?

Mrs Worth.

I bought some ice cream for her throat, and some new clothes.

She's too tired for visitors.

Last time I did this, she'd just had her tonsils out.

Did she, uh...

tell you she didn't want to see me?

Yeah.

Rosa?

Thank you.

For being her friend.

DENISE GRUNTS

Can you... you wanna help me here?

Nick! - Yes.

HE SHRIEKS - Oh!

Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry...

Why're you doing this?

It was an accident!

Taking me in.

Your place has stairs.

Guilt.

What?

You feel guilty

because the Lone Ranger you're playing Tonto to

shot me at close range and you haven't even suspended him.

I have to find him first.

They're making you chief, on account of my injury.

And because you're First Nations and female.

Come on, Denise, you know it's a political statement.

D'you want something to eat?

What I want is best served cold.

KNOCK AT DOOR

I'll get it.

Alright?

What?

Denise about?

What?

Your girlfriend. She lives here, don't she? - Yes.

What's the matter with you?

You shot me.

Where? - Outside Randy's.

Well, not in the head, then?

I must've been fucking plastered.

Oh, great. You're alive!

Where's my fucking family? - Where the hell have you been?

What happened to my fucking house?

What the hell are you doing with our new truck?

Can we talk outside?

JIM GRUNTS

Cheer up.

I've been shot in the leg, you don't see me complaining.

No, no, that is not yours, that's police property...

Well, you're not driving it, are ya?

When're you gonna chuck him?

What happened to you?

I dunno, I was hoping you'd tell me.

Me? I can barely keep up with you.

I covered up a murder for you. - Did ya?

I can't carry on like this.

At the very least, I'm gonna have to suspend you.

Which one?

Which what? - Which murder?

Oh, my God, are you telling me there's more than one?

Hang on.

Oh, you mean Elaine.

Did he steal my fucking gloves?

Big, black fella

come here to kill me.

I trusted you.

I hid evidence for you.

HE SIGHS That's good police work, that is.

Not where I come from.

What kind of man are you?

I don't know.

So, whatever followed you here, whatever you needed to do

to protect your family, I get it

but I need to know that it's over.

Well, I'm not gonna know that until I find 'em, am I?

So they're still alive, then, are they? - Yes!

They're safe? - From you.

You wanna do the right thing? - Always.

Just leave.

Is this cos I shot your boyfriend? - No.

So, er, where are they, then?

I don't know.

Are they in town? - I don't know.

At the hotel?

I don't know. - Hospital?

I don't know. - Hospital.

What the fuck happened?

So, you staying or you coming, or what?

Fuck!

Did you bring my clothes I asked for?

Love, you can't just discharge yourself. You're not well enough.

I told you I'm not sticking around here, Frank.

Hey, hey. - I'm scared.

Don't underestimate my nephew.

You're never going to see that kid again, Frank, and you know it.

So stop bullshitting us both and face the facts.

Sooner, not later

the man that stuck me with a broken bottle is gonna come around here looking for us

I don't wanna be here when he does.

I failed to protect you. - Yeah, you're damn right you did!

And I'm sorry.

When everything seems to be going against you, remember...

Remember what? - An aircraft takes off

against the wind, not with it.

What the hell does an aircraft have to do with this?

Henry Ford.

My point is... - My point is

I'm getting the hell out of here, now pass me my clothes.

Please.

Worth? Anna? Angela?

And you are? - Tired.

Anna's in the last room on the right, Chief.

Thanks.

ANGELA: I le ft him th ere to die.

For A nna.

Somebody had to stop him.

He destroyed our family.

He destroyed everything he touched.

I murdered my husband.

You asked me what happened on that mountain.

That's the truth.

SHE GASPS

No.

No.

Get off!

What?

Get off... - What have I done?

...me. - What have I done?

Get off.

Anna?

Where were you going?

Anna, I know this is hard.

First...

your brother, and then Whitey, and now your dad.

But you still have me.

You did this.

You set him off.

Jack.

And then...

you just stood there and did nothing.

While he pointed a gun at me and pulled the trigger.

You let him do it.

And you didn't stop me either.

Anna.

I'm... bad.

I know I'm bad.

But I'm so, so sorry I'm not who you thought I was.

But I can be...

who you want me to be.

From now on.

It's over between me and Jack and I am better now.

We are both better off without him.

Oh, my God, you still don't know.

Know what?

He's alive.

Wh... what?

Mum.

He's in the fucking building.

CAR HORN BLARES

You OK?

Dad, I came here to ask you what to do.

I hid this.

I did it to protect the chief of police.

Some men came here and tried to kill him and I thought I could help.

Dad, this is evidence in a murder investigation.

I'm breaking the law I'm supposed to uphold because a man needs my help

and I can't arrest him.

Because you taught me to listen to my heart.

So how can I possibly wear this star?

They want to make me chief.

What am I supposed to do?

Chief.

ELIZABETH: Will he find you?

Yep.

Jack.

Will he hurt you?

Not like you think.

So what are you afraid of?

Me.

What I'll do to him.

To punish him.

Maybe he could help us?

Help us?

He's a cop.

He could help cover this whole thing up.

Do you know what literature calls alcoholics?

"Architects of adversity."

"Children of chaos."

I call them bleeding lunatics.

Jack would solve our problems, alright.

But then he'd become our problem.

And if that happened...

you'd wish to Christ you were in jail.

CLATTER

Angela?

Angela?

CREAK

Angela!

JIM: Where is she?

I'm right here, you bastard.

Thank fuck for that. - Shut up.

Sorry. - Don't say a fucking word.

Go outside, look in his truck. You'll find a pair of handcuffs. Get them.

Call the police.

Tell them we've caught an intruder.

Call the police? - ANGELA: Yeah.

ANGELA: You've no idea, do you?

No memory at all of what you did.

She tried to...

hang herself, Jim.

Because of what you did.

Because of Jack.

There's no...

undoing what you've done, there's no going back.

There is no...

way that our...

little wee family

can ever be together again after this.

Why?

Why not?

Because Anna...

was the one who shot you.

She wants you dead.

So do I.
