Bloodline

John, Kevin and Meg try to get their lives back in order as the family comes to grips with the truth about Danny.

Their support will be important if you decide to run.

Well, we'd be willing to negotiate.

Jesus Christ. Is he dead?

Just tell me where you are.

Your blood work shows you didn't have a heart attack.

- Did he talk to anybody? - What if there's evidence?

I think it's better if no one ever knows John or Danny were here.

We're taking him down to Radiology for some tests.

- Where are you going? - I'll be right back. Um...

Not surprised, after last night.

There were people coming.

John, Meg and I had to make some decisions.

Let's do this and get out of here.

See you back at the house.

Then they're gonna want to sit down and talk to him.

I'll tell him to wear it.

and I know Robert was so thrilled.

I don't know how you can talk about deserving anything.

It's not very pleasant.

we all bear some of the blame.

John, what is it?

What direction is that?

Chelsea O'Bannon got a message from Danny.

He's linked to Wayne Lowry.

- This is just rabbit food now. - You agreed to eat healthy.

Danny’s past and present troubles became a threat to the Rayburns. Sally confronts her family.

Go to New York, Meg.

Because I can't.

Yeah?

Thanks for your help, Frank.

But...

My brother took it.

It'll be my daughter's word against his.

You want my help?

Son of a bitch showed up at my shop this morning.

Then, why are we talking?

Fuck!

Go there. Please.

(Man) Oh, FD was on the scene. It's just a bonfire.

Hey, John.

I fell in with some bad people.

but since I used the inn to bring the drugs through...

(Kevin) Son of a bitch.

Not forever. Just until things calm down.

(John) You expect me to forget about this?

I was always protecting you, always standing up for your fucking mistakes.

Beg me!

After John confronts Carlos about Danny’s illicit behavior, John, Kevin and Meg figure out a plan to save the family.

No, I didn't. But he talked to me about it.

Leave him alone.

I'm not saying that. Okay? I'm just saying it's fucking hairy right now.

Is there something on your mind?

No. And she can't. Legally, the less she knows, the better.

- We didn't fucking do anything. - It doesn't matter.

I can try to manage the situation.

I came straight to you, Clay.

I'll get a team together.

Maybe. But I doubt they're gonna believe your answer

Okay.

Meg, what are we doing? Maybe this wasn't a good idea.

Didn't quite turn out that way, though, did it?

Wanna know when that happened? For real?

You were too scared of breaking the fucking rules.

Don't, uh...

Where are we going?

I... thought that, you know, I could make them understand.

You know, we'll work it out. But let's go.

- I'm taking a trip. - Really?

It's your case now. I'll help you as much as I can behind the scenes.

- What kind of truck? - Um, a pick-up, but, like, old.

Listen, as soon as you see them, you give me a call.

She was off Big Torch. We're bringing her in.

As Meg and Sally move forward with the wedding plans, John and Marco's investigation points them in Danny's direction.

You two been hanging out?

Nothing but a few empties, an old boom box, and those.

If he had anything, do you think you'd be standing here?

No. Come on, Mama. I'm not gonna put that thing on right now.

who Lowry is using to offload his narcotics.

Oh, yeah. Deliveries have been fresh, they've been on time.

Looks like O'Bannon has gotten involved with some pretty stupid shit.

I never thought that you'd be interested in the big-firm, 90-hours-a-week shit.

It's over, but I'm sor...

You know his voice well enough to make a positive ID?

Oh, hey. I didn't see you.

- Still running that hotel? - Oh, yeah.

I'm just... Just working the steps.

Did you ever send somebody to talk to him

This goddamn family is gonna have to stop treating him like an outcast.

Rent, and then some.

(Door closes)

Oh, it's always about Danny.

He's got a job.

Good. We'll move this shit tomorrow.

All available units, prepare to block the road.

so I followed Rafi to the bait and tackle shop.

The DEA gets involved in John's murder case. Tensions rise between Meg and Danny. John digs into Danny's past. Sally reminisces.

I think we saw each other this morning.

I got two dead girls. I think this guy's involved in it.

Maybe you've seen them.

- Yeah. Imagine that, man. - (John laughs)

No, she wasn't upset with me. She was upset with you.

Hey. What do you think about maybe expanding the dining service?

No more business talk tonight, okay? I'm having dinner with my son.

I tried making a pie once, actually, and it kind of tasted like a brick.

Yep. He's changing the menu. He wants to open the restaurant to the public.

That's lazy technique.

He taught her how to fillet fish. I don't think that's considered hanging out.

(Diana) You got it, Dave. See you next year.

You know, for coming to apologize in person.

Whoa, babe. That's a generous pour. Three fingers?

- It was two years ago. - Mm-hm.

I hardly think I'm the person putting ideas in her head.

Did Mom and Dad pay for it? No, they didn't.

- Get out of here. - You fucked up my car. I know you did it.

I don't know who owned it, but he ran it.

You're the lawyer. What do you call that? Negligent?

- (Man) You saw the car hit your brother? - (Young Kevin) Yes, sir.

Then how do you know?

John Rayburn. Yeah, he talked about you. Cop brother.

Hey. You two come join us. Grab a chair.

What about my sister?

No, you're right. You're right.

So he stole painkillers from a pharmacy. He got caught selling them.

Whatever.

That's the story that your father liked to tell.

Yeah.

Kevin recovers at Sally's house after he's robbed. Danny makes a deal with Carlos. John and Marco identify one of the murdered girls.

Sit down. I'll buy you a beer. Pull up a chair.

- I just had all the fun. - Keep it.

Yeah. I just...

My sister put her ass on the line for you.

Excuse me, sir.

She never...

He says he knows where it is.

Oh, no. They're gouging us.

You're Aaron Davis, right?

You saved me.

Fuck.

- I love you. I love you. - Work. It's always work.

(♪♪♪)

walks right up to me, I'm working on an engine,

(Sighs)

They were just looking for some money, you know? It was just a burglary.

I'm sorry. I should have called you first.

Hey, go easy on that.

(Marco) And this is where you met, right?

Mr. Rayburn, it's a small town.

- I'm so sorry, Mr. Rayburn. - Fuck.

Hey, what do you think happened with Kevin?

- You've got a small-town mind-set. - (Laughs)

Hey, buddy. Can I get some shots over here?

(John sniffs)

You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Fuck you.

That is such a dominant name. That's very powerful.

Mom,

And you didn't let me down.

The fucking family business.

- What's that? - Think I'm gonna fucking let you drive?

(John groaning)

Whew. Shit.

That's Janey's birthday party, right? Sorry I couldn't have been there for that.

Mom?

And when are you gonna do that?

No, you didn't see him after you went to sleep, okay?

- Yeah, I know. And so do I. But... - All right.

John and Marco get a lead in their investigation. Meg does her best to help Carlos. Kevin comes clean with Danny.

How did that go?

Where are we?

He cut me out of his will.

It's simple, it's safe. I'm not gonna do anything to fuck that up.

- What are you gonna tell Danny? - Nothing.

I can't do it all today. It's a process.

Good. So you don't give a shit that Kevin dropped her off, right?

♪ Time is lost, no time at all Throw it in a garbage can ♪

And your dad decided he had to have a new shirt.

He didn't have to steal anything, because I stole it for him.

Yeah... Hey. Don't give him

You want me to get rid of this guy?

All I was trying to do was get my money back from this guy.

No, Mrs. Rayburn. You don't have to do that.

This land is all she's got.

How's my sister doing?

Well, good for him. Good for him. Does he work for us now?

(Laughs) I'm afraid that just isn't possible.

You have to be sure Belle doesn't file for divorce before that comes through.

If it's okay with you guys, it's okay with me.

The man was very particular about who he let in.

- In which case, Danny... Okay. - Kevin, I said it's fine.

Whatever fucking docks they unload their shit at.

So, who the fuck are you?

Yeah, you were.

John wants to keep Danny in the fold, but Danny learns an awful truth about the past. Meg takes on a new client. Kevin's personal life takes a turn.

I was just wondering how you're doing, that's all.

Huh. Serious? In one night you'll make, like, I don't know,

I... have no plans.

♪ You gotta push yourself again ♪

He liked you. Your family was always very good to him.

Kevin, sooner or later someone else is gonna come in.

He was having his injuries examined. I talked to him in the examination room.

I could show proof of the meetings. I can take a test, blood, whatever.

No. You know Danny. Danny's Danny. Thank you.

If you were, you'd understand that what he's convicted of is only a fraction.

(Clears throat)

that I'd like to talk to you about.

Clarifies things, right? It makes sense.

Well, the business is ours now. As long as we all agree, we can do what we want.

- (Man) We're out. - Where to next?

Fox in a hen house. Like a Cookie Monster, and a... What do you call it...

Same. What's going on?

You got it?

(Cop 2) Get your hands up! Up where I can see them!

and pushing, until they start investigating Sarah's death.

Give me the gun, Danny.

Uh...

A sudden tragedy unsettles the Rayburn clan. While searching for evidence in his case, John finds something disturbing from the family’s past.

He said he didn't want to be buried in the ground,

Everyone thinks they have something to say, and it just goes on and on.

- How you guys doing today? Got plans? - Yeah.

I didn't even know you had all of these.

I mean for your plans.

So you don't think I should say anything?

a long time.

Come on. He must've told you stories over the years.

which wasn't necessarily saying much.

and he asked your Uncle Tuck and Aunt Lynn if they knew where she was.

No, this was rural Texas, late '50s.

He used to laugh about that.

Thanks.

My brother Danny told me that I should wing this.

because all he had... was nothing.

There he is. Bobby's boy.

Well, sure, that'd be great. I'd appreciate it. Thank you.

What the fuck is wrong with you? I'm at my father's funeral.

no ID, burns over most of her body, washed up in the Mangrove.

- I don't remember. - Was your hair pink?

Fuck you.

What's he doing?

Your father was my good friend, but he had a mean streak.

The family adjusts to Danny’s new role at the inn. John and Marco discover a burned boat connected to their murder case.

Cobbled together from God knows where.

Guess not.

Possibly, and/or immigration.

I thought maybe you might have changed your mind, so I didn't file it.

That's what you told me.

Dr. Sachs, he wanted us to put in a new jack plate

I'm sorry, but it's just not gonna happen.

- Heads up! - Go number two!

I think somebody's trying to get me drunk. Oh, look.

Have an overnighter with her best friends.

I'm at the Oceanside Marina. Can you make it down here?

Oh...

Personally, it'd be great to have someone like you.

with this same exact chemical marker is south of Marathon.

Please, after you.

The big questions here are salt or no salt.

My bad. So, what are you doing home?

It's great to see you up and back in action, Pop. It really is.

Yeah.

Everything's consistent with the other girl, except

Okay, okay, ladies. No, no, no. There's nothing to be scared about.

- How...? "I've been in the bend"? - Uh-huh.

You know, there's no bullshit.

Take this.

Why don't you show me what it's worth to you?

With Robert’s condition uncertain, Danny re-considers staying in Islamorada. Meg’s personal and professional obligations become overwhelming.

I'm working surveillance tonight. What are you doing up?

I'll crank up the AC.

Mm-hm.

I'll think about it.

Dad may not be able to do the things around here he used to be able to do.

Yeah. You're gonna have to do it without me.

My father helped create these regulations.

Meg's bringing me everything I need.

with dad being in the hospital and all?

- Don't you have a wife to go home to? - Yeah... Please.

- Mister? - Oh, I gotta go.

All she ever wanted was to include him.

With Dad in the hospital, I don't want people knowing.

You guys are, like, the best couple I know.

How are you?

But I, uh... I rewrote it all.

Oh, yeah.

If Dad wanted Danny out of the will,

"Angelfish."

Do you ever wonder what I'm left dealing with?

Why would you say that?

- Is that you? - Yeah.

He can't help it. It's like a fucking disease.

Because no one's ever good enough for her.

I did, but this must've been dated wrong.

Come with us.

- Stop? - Stop.

- We'll finish talking later. Yeah? - Yeah. Be careful.

I went to a hotel for one night because it was hot here.

An accident exposes old wounds, complicating the already difficult situation between Danny and his family.

Yeah.

Because I was all alone. There was no one here to undress me.

But these things happen.

I can't take this anymore.

Sharp, okay?

let me introduce you to Juanita Doe.

Because you look like shit.

I wanted to say goodbye. Wanted to shake hands.

- Yes. Mr. Rayburn's in the E.R. - Why?

You kidding me?

I'll call the staff and get the place ready for tonight.

Well, John, who, you know, asked Dad...

So, uh, I told him there was no hard feelings.

- Can't tell me you believe this. - You don't know what the fuck...

Tomorrow is not a fucking option, okay?

Rayburn.

I'll check on them and take pictures on my phone so I can show my mom.

But he left early, took his stuff, and I haven't seen him since.

- Yeah? - You let Dad take the fall?

Did he...? Why did he stop? Did he see...?

No! No, Dad!

Before you die.

Trouble starts when oldest son Danny Rayburn comes home for the 45th anniversary celebration of his parents' hotel in the Florida Keys' Islamorada.

Do me a favor. Let Mom know you're here. I gotta go to the bus stop.

Next stop, Islamorada.

Uh, give me a call when you get this, would you, please?

You said the grouper was fresh.

and the best-looking group of rope-pullers ever in one place.

I was wondering if you heard from him.

I've been headed here, like a freight train.

Well, hold on. Hold on.

Is that true, really?

Just walk away. Just walk away.

I mean, what did I know about raising babies or running a hotel or anything?

There's something else I wanna say, and I'm not quite sure how to say it.

Here you go.

The AC in the guest room's on the fritz. Gonna have to use the fan.

And, uh, if you think it's shit, let me know.

Obviously. So I was hoping you would talk to him.

And then, you know...

I realized that she was doing it so, you know, I'd get mad and I'd hit her.

"You better calm the fuck down. I will just leave."

Call in the ME. Get a team down here.

I'll live with it.

Danny helping to run the family business?

Danny, I'm just saying that your family...

- Enough, all right? - You gotta say, "Fuck my family."

Oh, man. I do. Heh.

Dad gave me his answer.

The bonfire's tonight. The pier dedication's in the morning.
