Previously on Blackstone

I wanna get high, do you?

Wake the fuck up. Natalie's gone.

You wanna be next?

Have you told Cecil you've been seeing me?

No. You tell your Dad?

We had a commitment to get a condo together.

Remember our "fuck nest"?

The second he fucking got sick

you ran against him and stole his fucking life!

He should have supported me but he didn't.

I kept Cecil out of that band office

I kept Cecil out of that band office

and what did I get for it? I got fuck all!

Whatever you've got going with Andy,

it is not worth losing your company,

it's not worth going to jail for.

What happens if that shit gets out, huh?

Every fucking thing we've worked for will be gone!

I gave you every fucking thing!

Fuck you, Dad.

Fuck you, too.

You tried to make changes and they voted you out.

They don't want change.

Help the ones who are asking to be helped.

So how can you help us?

Daddy, daddy!

Daddy, daddy!

I'm frustrated too! My ex-wife is living in the city

with some guy who's looking after my daughter!

Maybe this was a lost cause.

Grandpa? Grandpa!

Moshom!

Hey.

Mom! Mom, I need help!

What the fuck is all this shit?

Wanna file this for me, Teresa? Thanks.

Victor.

I'll be in in a sec.

Andy.

I was very sorry to hear about your father.

My condolences to you and your family.

Hi Teresa.

Those two are going to be difficult.

What's this shit I hear about her

What's this shit I hear about her

starting programs down at the band hall?

What the fuck is that all about?

Hey. It'll keep her ass out of here.

Well put an end to it.

End it how?

Make the room unavailable.

I don't know, paint the fucking thing.

That'll tie it up for a couple of weeks.

It might be good to keep her happy.

Are you out of your fucking mind?

I'm just saying. She still has her supporters.

And you're starting to act like one.

You better get your ducks in order, buddy boy.

Bring this box.

Are you okay?

Like, with your Moshom and stuff.

Yeah.

It's okay to care.

Dad's having a wake for him at the house tomorrow.

They didn't even really get along.

Do you want me to be there?

Hey, nice to see you back home.

Hey Cecil.

Beautiful flowers.

Thanks. I'm just trying to clean it up here,

you know, make it a bit more welcoming.

I heard you're, uh, cutting hair again.

I heard you're, uh, cutting hair again.

Yeah.

That's good. I got some letters for Leona.

Oh.

Andy has told Teresa to forward all the band mail

with her name on it.

But of course she passes them on to me.

Andy's going to have to do a lot more than hide her mail.

I mean, he has got to live up to his promises.

'Cause I, for one, I'm not going to put up

with his shit no more.

Then you'll have to speak up and get involved.

'Cause too many people in this community turn a blind eye.

'Cause too many people in this community turn a blind eye.

Yeah, you got that right.

So, uh, you wanna dig some earth with me?

I don't know... I'll kill your flowers.

Well then.

Now that we're all solemnly convened here,

let me be the first to inform you that the new rec centre

will be constructed by Walt Andrachuck's company,

Brevner Construction.

Now some of you many know Walt.

The previous council kickstarted his proposal

by a $100,000 payment.

by a $100,000 payment.

So, uh, we're pretty much committed to him now.

I don't know if you all knew, but this is a joint effort

with the federal and provincial governments.

Blackstone has committed $500,000, the province a mil and a half,

and the feds will pick up the rest.

And of course the rec centre planning committee

will administer the funds?

The rec centre planning committee...

You know, that's a noble idea,

but I propose that we dissolve this committee immediately

and let the band council do all the decision making.

We organized this meeting.

We organized this meeting.

You can't dissolve the committee. It's in the bylaws.

That's right. The new ones that Leona put in place.

To ensure accountability.

And I for one, don't want to see them removed.

Let me remind you that the band members

voted Leona and Victor here off of our council.

And just like the last Chief here had the right

to introduce those little experiments,

I retain the right to kill them.

I believe the community has spoken clearly in its vote.

They like things the way they were before they were changed.

They like things the way they were before they were changed.

Well then. It looks like the committee

has been officially dissolved.

What?!

We haven't even started.

You can't do that.

Come on, Andy.

You're not going to get away with this.

I'll do whatever the fuck I want to do.

What are you doing? Why'd you leave?

It's obvious he's not going to listen to anything we say,

and I have to set up the band hall.

and I have to set up the band hall.

And you're just going to let him get away with that?

You can't expect to win any arguments with him, Victor.

The least you could do is put up a fight.

Andy's Chief. It's his decision to make.

And he's not going to get a reaction out of me.

Right now, my focus is on these kids,

that's where I can be of service.

Whatever happened to leading by example?

All we can expect from Andy

is another empty lot of concrete pilings.

You should get your cousin to add me.

She ain't gonna add you, she doesn't like you.

Yes she does.

Hey, she likes me, man.

Whoa, where'd you come from, man?

Get your head back in there. Shit.

How does she live with herself?

I don't know.

Leona should've had her put away, too.

I seriously don't like that wo-- oh shit, there she is.

Bitch.

What the fuck did you just say?

You better watch your mouth, you little skank.

Fuck you.

Fuck me.

Oh, shit!

Yo bro, get your camera.

I will kick your fucking ass.

Hey, where you going? I thought you were just getting started.

You guys are assholes.

Oh shit.

I'm gonna put this on the internet.

You'll be famous real soon.

Do it again, do it again. Stop and pull your hair,

rip your clothes off...

Can't wait to get this on the internet.

Yeah, we're gonna be famous.

I can be there at five o'clock.

But you make sure you're going to be there.

No, I can't be there earlier, and I can't be there later.

I said five o'clock. You be there, I'll be there.

I'm only doing this once.

You bring it, I'll be there. Look...

Yeah.

Listen, I'll call you back. Alright. Bye.

What the fuck?

You like toys?

I like to play.

Hmm.

Do you like playing with your brother's toys?

Hmm?

I'd have to say yes.

I need an advance on my cheque.

I need an advance on my cheque.

I've done E.

Been on that trip. It's a fun ride, eh?

It's like cruising the love boat.

Yeah!

But of course, nothing is free.

What you're trying to escape

What you're trying to escape

soon catches up to you.

It doesn't take one hit anymore.

Now you're on to two.

Eight kids died last week, from E on a res out east.

Picture eight of your friends in here, all of a sudden, gone.

Look. I'm not here to preach.

I've fucked up.

Almost died from an overdose, been to jail...

Did too many bad things to count. I'm not proud of it.

As a matter of fact, I'm ashamed of it.

But I got serious.

Found out I could still be a clown without the drugs.

Now I travel all over North America, making people laugh.

Now I travel all over North America, making people laugh.

I made over three hundred thousand dollars last year.

If someone like me can make something of himself,

anyone can.

But you can't do it getting high

on gas, pot, E, crack and booze.

Thanks, Dan.

Good luck with everything with them, eh?

Thank you so much.

Alright.

Alan. Do you have a second?

Yeah, sure.

I'll be right out.

I was really sorry to hear about the passing of your grandfather.

Thanks.

Look, if there's anything that you ever wanna talk about,

I'm here.

I'm not the chief anymore. I'm just Leona, okay?

Alright. Thanks for coming today.

See ya.

Hi.

Hey.

Hm.

My name is Josh, I'm from Blackstone and this is my home.

I roam these roads alone.

Nobody steps close on this microphone.

I spit so out-wicked in my monkey-dome

I get so wicked, my mind's so complex. What's next?

Spittin' ex. Wickedest rhyme over the wickedest smoke fest.

Who wants to come test their luck?

They'll get fucked up, and rocked, get hit in the ditch,

be it the bitch, and die like a snitch

No one's bein' twitch, get hit with the witch

nobody doesn't get their liquor's

getting lizards off the street

getting lizards off the street

You want beat?

Nobody wants peace, but war. Who wants more? Nah.

Shit man, that's pretty good.

You should like, do something with that. You're...

I'm surprised, man.

Fuckin' rights, man.

That guy was fucking funny, man.

Until he started going on with that E shit, like...

I heard they're hitting, like, three of them at a time.

That's too much.

Yeah, man, like, definitely something

put in that shit, though.

That's all I know. Bro.

Hey, you feel like doing something? Come on...

Hey, you feel like doing something? Come on...

I'm outta here.

What's wrong with her?

So you, um, come by just to give me my mail?

No.

I've been thinking about joining the rec centre committee.

I think that's great.

Why don't we talk more about it at home?

You don't want me on it? Or--

No, no. I didn't say that. It's just, I...

No, no. I didn't say that. It's just, I...

I don't know how long there's going to be a committee.

Andy wants to dissolve it.

What? He can't do that!

Yeah. He can.

Are you serious?

Mm hmm.

Nothing's been done yet, so why don't we talk more

about it at home. See what we can do?

Yeah. You know, that bastard better fucking build it.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey Carla.

Hey Carla.

Hi.

So, I was thinking, if you don't want me to come tomorrow,

I'll understand.

The whole community's invited. It's a wake.

I'm not talking about the whole community.

I'm talking about me, and my grandfather.

Cecil wants to come?

Is that okay?

Sure. I'm just a little surprised.

Sure. I'm just a little surprised.

What will your Dad think?

Don't worry about my Dad.

I'm... not sure what to do with life.

It's okay that you don't know yet. I mean, you're young.

It's okay that you don't know yet. I mean, you're young.

Start by trying a few different things and see what you like.

It's not like there's a lot of choices around here.

Well, we're going to change that.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Daryl know you're here?

I'm here for both of us.

He seemed kinda pissed about not being included last time.

He wanted me to take care of our situation,

so I'm taking care of it.

Don't worry about it. You'll get your money next week.

Meantime, I want you to drop a load of lumber off

at Blackstone, so it looks like we're, um,

you know, making some progress.

Progress?

Yeah, like we're actually building the fucking thing.

Look, it's my company on the hook here, huh?

Look, it's my company on the hook here, huh?

I get paid to do a job, I don't do it...

there's legal ramifications.

In all the years we've done business,

have you ever had any fucking legal ramifications, Walt?

No....

It's just... it makes no sense why I'm dropping off lumber

if I'm not going to build something.

It makes no sense why Blackstone keeps paying me.

Well call it a fucking favour then.

And why I do these things,

and how I pay you for the strip bar,

are none of your concern.

are none of your concern.

Pfft. Yeah.

Well that's all fine and dandy

'til I've got a law suit on my hands.

Aw fuck, there you go with the legal shit again.

What is it with you?

I didn't like that broad showing up here. That changed things.

Well that broad isn't Chief anymore. I am.

So we'll just call Blackstone's money my money.

Shit. You're telling me you can do whatever the fuck you want?

Shit. You're telling me you can do whatever the fuck you want?

Well, yeah.

So are we good?

Yeah.

We're good.

You question my business ethics again,

I'll snap your fucking neck.

What?

Great show, Angel.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Hey, uh, did you mean what you said?

Absolutely, darlin'.

Promise?

Hey, I'm not my brother.

No.

How about we put some furniture in that condo of yours?

Make it look real nice?

Make it look real nice?

Mm hmm.

Take care of some of those bills for you?

That's what I need.

Is that what you need?

Mm hmm.

Oh!

There's no better recipe than your Kokom's.

I promise you that.

Tell me about her.

I told you a thousand times.

Tell me again.

Well, she was graceful...

Do you miss her?

Sure I do. But she's still around.

Sure I do. But she's still around.

Every day I see her in the little things,

like these cookies.

But she wouldn't like it so much

that we made them for Tom Fraser,

I can tell you that.

Why don't you come with me?

To the wake?

Yeah.

That's not possible.

Why not? Alan said it would be okay. He invited us.

There are some things that should remain unspoken.

There are some things that should remain unspoken.

It might look worse if you don't show, don't you think?

Yeah. I'll think about it.

Hey!

Hey.

How's it going?

So, I've been really thinking about the rec centre committee,

So, I've been really thinking about the rec centre committee,

and I need to be a part of it.

For Natalie.

I can't help but wonder if she'd still be here if it was built.

Well, Victor's organizing a meeting outside the council.

I'll let you know when you should be there.

You know, seeing all those kids at the band hall today...

You know, seeing all those kids at the band hall today...

that was really something.

What is it?

Gaming commission approved our grant.

What grant?

For the rec centre.

Well that's great. What's the problem?

Andy doesn't know I went after this.

This is money he didn't account for.

This is money he didn't account for.

It's enough to cover Blackstone's investment.

If he gets a hold of this,

he's going to funnel it somewhere else.

Well. Can't let him have it.

Do you know what kind of programming

we could do with this?

Did you hear me?

Where you going?

I gotta talk to Victor.

Hi, thank you. Thanks for coming.

Hi.

Maybe we're early.

I suppose. Hi.

Hi.

Cecil.

Sheila!

I don't know what to say. Thanks for coming.

What the fuck is going on out here?

What are you two doing here?

We brought some food for your guests, Andy.

Can we have a minute?

At least invite them in.

Please?

Alan.

Come on. Come on.

You know, you've got a lot of fucking nerve coming out here

to mourn my father's passing, Cecil.

Maybe we didn't see eye to eye, me and your father...

See eye to eye with him?

See eye to eye with him?

You criticized everything that he did.

And now you bring me an offering of what, cookies?

It's my Kokom's recipe.

Sorry for your loss. Come on, Sheila.

I want to talk to Alan.

You stay the fuck away from my kid.

What do you mean?

Don't you play dumb with me young lady.

Now take your cookies and get the fuck out of here.

Hey, what did you say to them?

Listen to me, I don't want you hanging around with that girl.

As a matter of fact, I want you to stay away from

that whole fucking family, you hear me?

Andy.

What?

What do you think?

Andy wants to dissolve this committee,

and if we sit back and let him, I can guarantee you

that that rec centre will disappear.

We need to get more people involved and push back.

Where does Norma and Greg stand on this?

They're outnumbered on the council.

They may as well not be here.

Well, what about a protest?

Protest?

Yeah, protest. I mean, we get the people out,

we shut this shit down.

You think you'll find people who will do that?

They may have voted for Andy but it doesn't mean

they don't still care.

they don't still care.

Well everyone agrees we need a rec centre.

Mm hmm.

Yeah.

Well that's about the only thing we do agree on.

We need to show Andy that the community is not only watching,

but that they're engaged in the decisions his council makes.

Exactly. Which is why, if we have a protest,

it'll be fucking grass roots, man.

Show him what we're made of, huh?

Joey, don't say nothing, and don't fucking move.

Excuse me, gentleman, but you might want to move.

Excuse me, gentleman, but you might want to move.

Hey get the fuck out of here

before we drop that coffin on your fucking heads!

Thank you!

Andy!

Set 'er down, boys.

What the hell you doing? You sick fuck!

The old man's going in the ground tomorrow.

You didn't want to come to his wake. So I took the wake to you.

Listen.

We've both got our own ways of dealing with that, alright?

This is not the place or the time.

Take him home.

You made your point, alright?

Show the man respect. Take him home, Andy.

Take him home.

Well, load him up, boys.

Victor.

There's something you should know.

What's that?

Andy paid for his votes.

That's nothing new. Everyone knows how Andy operates.

They don't know he's building a strip club in the city

with his brother. Plans on using money from Blackstone.

You know this for a fact?

Debbie told my wife about it.

Not the money part, but where else is he going to get it?

Who else knows about this?

I don't know. I'm telling you...

Look. You've got to keep quiet about this.

I'll look into it.

Alright.

You're right. That was a little messed up.

I didn't mean to fuck your shit up like that.

I was just trying to include you.

Yeah?

Like you included me in your meeting with Walt?

What did I tell ya, Andy,

about leaving me out of these meetings?

Well, did you want me to get him his money, or what?

Well, did you want me to get him his money, or what?

I was just making arrangements.

You're acting like a fucking woman.

Yeah? Speaking of fucking women, Andy,

that Angel is one hot piece of ass now ain't she?

Fuck man, I had no idea. I mean, what... amazing.

What are you talking about?

Oh, you know what I'm talking about, Andy.

You know what I'm talking about.

It's been three months.

I just take it day by day.

Thank you, Vince.

Okay. We still have a few minutes.

Umm.

Gail, would you like to share something?

No.

Okay.

Anybody else?

I'd like to say something.

Many years ago I, uh, struggled with the bottle.

A lot of you don't know this,

because like most alcoholics, it was something I hid.

I lost someone close to me,

and alcohol numbed my feeings.

and alcohol numbed my feeings.

What I would like to say is, don't be hard on yourself.

We have to take responsibility, but that doesn't mean

beat yourself up with past mistakes.

There's a wonderful word, uh, perseverance.

We have all, each of us, failed.

And we have all, by the mere fact that we're here,

And we have all, by the mere fact that we're here,

have been given another chance.

To persevere and find peace in our lives.

We're blessed, all of us.

We're blessed to be alive.

Leona) Thank you, Cecil.

Come in.

How you doing, brother?

How you doing, brother?

Not such a great day, huh?

I want you to look me in the eye

and tell me you didn't do what you said you did.

Why?

What the fuck do you care?

You don't pay her furniture off, you don't pay her bills off,

you do nothing.

You gotta learn to take care of your girls, bro.

You gotta learn to take care of your girls, bro.

Just tell me it's a joke and I'll let it go.

Nothing's a joke, Andy. Including bringing Dad in here.

I just wanted to get together and say our goodbyes.

That's it.

You know, all these years,

I've given you the benefit of the doubt.

I figured you got your story, Dad's got his story,

and somewhere in the middle is the truth.

So I just stayed out of it.

Until you show up on his deathbed,

Until you show up on his deathbed,

trying to pay off your fricking debts.

I didn't take a cent from him.

All I want is to hear you tell me you didn't fuck her.

Alright.

The truth is,

I didn't fuck her.

I didn't fuck her.

I was just shitting you.

Spoken like a gentleman.

See you around.

I called city planning myself.

And they just offered it up?

Nope. I told them I was the insurance broker

and I needed to verify an address of the development.

and I needed to verify an address of the development.

And they gave it to you?

Yeah, they gave it to me.

Too good.

And guess who the contractor is?

Walt.

Andrachuck, yeah.

They're doing a development together.

Another one of his brother's strip clubs.

So, who the hell is Walt Andrachuck?

He's a builder. A corrupt one.

As soon as that grant money drops, it's going to disappear.

He has to do something illegal with it first

in order for us to implicate him.

Yeah, well waiting for him to fuck us

is not something I'm willing to do.

Me neither.

So then, what are our options?

Where the fuck's Carla?

I don't know.

Let's listen to my station.

Okay, no, stop it!

Hey, Hey, I'm trying to drive here! Let's listen to mine!

Enough. Enough! I don't want to listen to your music.

Your music sucks!

Stop.

Hey, hey, hey!

Where you been?

Nowhere.

I left you a message.

I was busy.

Busy? Doing what?

I do have a life, Mo Mo.

You know, maybe I just don't want to do drugs

every minute of every day. Have you ever thought of that?

No, I haven't, actually.

What is her problem?

Who cares, man?

Hey Teresa, uh, what are you up to?

Just shredding.

Shredding what?

I don't know. Andy just wanted them shredded.

Why wasn't I told about this?

We were just told to paint.

What's going on now?

Andy has decided to paint. The hall is closed for a few weeks.

In other words, he doesn't want you here.

Yeah.

Well he's in the office right now, shredding files.

What files?

I don't know. Whoever knows with that guy?

Have you had enough yet?

Yeah, I've had enough.

I feel so bad for that teacher.

He was getting picked on by everybody.

He was getting picked on by everybody.

Whatever. It serves him right for coming to this school.

Everyone doesn't listen to him because he's such a weirdo.

He's just so tall and awkward looking,

it's just like-- what the fuck is this?

Shit.

Oh, check it out.

Holy shit. Look at his wheels.

That's a nice ride.

Your man looked like

he had a little bit of a spaz attack there.

Shut up.

Listen, I need you to take the pile of gravel there

around front and grade it, ok?

Couple hours, we'll knock off, you think you can handle that?

Ah, fuck me.

Alan called.

So what.

So you couldn't just talk to him?

You had to embarrass him in front of his friends?

No, you know what's embarrassing?

Watching him run around with Cecil's granddaughter.

Get a tow truck over there and give him his wheels back.

This is between me and my son. Stay the fuck out of it.

This is between me and my son. Stay the fuck out of it.

Is he losing it? I mean, who does stuff like that?

Don't worry about it.

I am worried. He's your Dad. And he hates me.

I'm not going to let him control me anymore.

Screw him and the truck, I'll get my own ride.

Looks like you guys need a ride.

Yeah man, looks like a fucking canoe.

Yeah man, looks like a fucking canoe.

If you guys need me to hook you up with some wheels,

just text me or something.

We'll put some Ds on that bitch.

And I don't mean you.

We're going to walk. Thanks, guys.

Alright then.

Alright.

Let's get out of here.

Yeah, I gotta get the fuck out of here.

She's driving me up the fucking river.

Hey, hang on a sec. I gotta go.

What the fuck are you doing out here?

We got a problem.

What is it?

I got a visit from that Leona bitch and Victor.

They know about the new strip club,

they know everything. You funnelling funds, all of it.

They said they're going to go to the cops.

Look. First off, any and all money paid to you

by Blackstone came from her.

If they were going to do something,

they would've done it already, Walt.

They're trying to smoke you out.

Well, it worked. I don't want any more of Blackstone's money,

Well, it worked. I don't want any more of Blackstone's money,

you hear me?

I took your word for it the first time

that it wouldn't be a problem. Well, now it is.

Fine. I'll give it to you personally.

They're going to come after you.

Find yourself another contractor.

Listen to me, you fucking sawed-off pecker head.

My brother and I gave you a hell of a lot of money

and I expect you to finish what you started,

you fucking understand me?

Are you fucking crazy?!

I'm done with you, Andy.

Walt...

Walt!

Walt!

Don't fuck with me, Walt!

Do you ever knock?

What do you want, Vic?

What I want, you can't give.

I beg to differ. I'm a pretty resourceful guy.

Oh yeah?

How about governing Blackstone with some integrity?

How about governing Blackstone with some integrity?

Can you keep your dirty little fingers

out of the band's accounts?

Can you stop paying your supporters

with bribes and backdoor deals?

Or stealing from us to pay for your brother's strip club?

Is it Leona you want?

If you've got something to say, say it.

That's it, isn't it.

Oh shit, I should've seen that coming a long time ago.

Get out.

Get out.

Here's the deal, Victor.

If you're even thinking about fucking with me,

whatever it is that you want, I'll take it all away from you

so fast your fucking head will spin.

Your daughter's entire future is ahead of her,

and mom and her seem to be doing very well.

So if I were you, I suggest you take my advice

and back the fuck off.

and back the fuck off.

You've been warned.
