Contraband Page #2

I'm one drink away

from the worst day

of my life.

What should I do?

MAN:
Sitting in

this circle that's had

that same thought, right?

That's all you gotta do,

is work the steps.

CHRIS:
I'm not

doing another run.

No f***ing way.

I could probably get us

the buy money, no problem.

No, I finally got

something going.

I'm not going to

chance f***ing it up.

It's not going away, Chris.

MAN:
Does somebody

want to share?

Sebastian? Want to share

a little bit with us?

Okay.

Oh, yeah.

Go do your thing.

You don't want

to stick around?

No, I get

far too emotional

hearing that story.

Hey, everyone, I'm Sebastian.

ALL:
How are

you doing, Sebastian?

What the hell happened?

Walter died last night.

Briggs came to the hospital.

He said it was all on me.

I keep

getting calls, Chris,

and they're talking about

how they're going to

f***ing torture me.

I'm shipping out in

the next couple of days.

I'm not coming back.

Do me a favor,

and don't tell Kate.

Not until I'm gone.

When I stopped

doing runs,

you promised me

you were gonna

stay out of this sh*t.

What do you want me

to say, man?

Not a f***ing word!

I didn't have

anybody to tell me

I was f***ing up. You do!

And you put your sister

and the boys in this sh*t?

What the f*** is

wrong with you?

(RAP MUSIC PLAYING)

Whoa.

You don't come

to my f***ing place.

I just came to tell you

that I'm going to have

your money within a month.

Just stay away from Andy.

I ain't waiting that long.

Well, I ain't paying

if he's dead.

If a guy dies

owing something,

his family inherits

the debt.

So I'll give you

two weeks.

If not,

I'm going to come

after the both of you.

Then, all the way

down the line.

I'll come asking

your wife for it,

your kids...

(GRUNTING)

Do you think

you're the only guy

with a f***ing gun?

You'll get your

f***ing money.

But if you ever

mention my wife

and my kids again,

you're done.

You hear me?

You are f***ing done!

GIRL:
Daddy.

BRIGGS:
It's okay, sweetie.

Go back inside.

It's okay, sweetie.

Daddy and I were

just playing, okay?

It's okay.

Yeah, we're just playing.

Yeah, me and Daddy

were just f***ing playing.

Get up there.

Yeah, we'll play again.

Daddy is okay.

It's all right.

What the f***

are you looking at?

(SHIP HORN BLOWING)

CHRIS:
You stay in the car,

I'll go talk to her.

ANDY:
Okay.

JEANIE:
Hey, Chris.

Hey, how are you?

Hi.

Hey.

Everything okay?

Yeah, I just wanted to

talk to you for a minute.

Okay.

(SIGHS)

I got to get on

the ship with Andy

and try to fix this.

Are you f***ing kidding?

What am I going to do,

let him go alone?

No, we're going to

think of something else.

There's nothing

else to do, okay?

I hate to tell you,

but that little

dumb f*** has put us

in the worst

possible position, okay?

And if they don't

get the money from him,

they're coming after us.

So what else

do you want me to do?

You know what

I don't want to do?

I don't want to f***ing

visit you in jail like

we're visiting your dad,

and raising

those kids on my own.

So it's my...

I don't want to

fight with you

about this, okay?

I know what I'm doing,

all right?

Will you just trust me?

Please?

Nothing is going to happen.

All right? I promise.

Mmm.

(INMATES TALKING INDISTINCTLY)

BUD:
That shitbag

Briggs was here

for a couple of years.

He tried to smash

some guy's head in

with a cinder block.

Look, I mentioned

this to Sebastian.

We're doing another run.

Can you get me

on your old boat?

You mean the Borden?

(CHUCKLES) Remember

when you were little,

you and Sebastian,

you broke into

McTier's warehouse,

stole all that

Mardi Gras jewelry,

and you came back

to the house with a great

big box of them beads?

You thought

they were diamonds.

(LAUGHING) You were

grinning like you just

won the f***ing lottery.

And you said,

"You don't have to work

on that boat no more."

I always think about that.

The proudest day of my life

was when you turned legit,

and you started your own

business, and you got

out of the life.

I know you got to do

what you got to do.

I got it.

Family is family.

I'll get you on the boat.

But you get in,

you got to get back out.

CHRIS:
Me and Andy are

shipping out to Panama

with the Borden.

SEBASTIAN:

The old man's boat?

Yeah, he got us on.

What about Captain Camp?

I know. I know.

Don't worry about it.

What's this?

What's what?

Every time I come here,

you got new sh*t.

I'm getting it together,

I'm getting the place ready.

It's a bad-ass coffee table.

That is not for shoes.

I must be out of touch.

I don't know

what's bad-ass anymore

because this looks

cheap-ass.

You're turning

into The Birdcage.

(LAUGHING)

I mean...

So who do we know

in Panama?

Are you going to

go see Ruben?

Dude, no drugs.

What else has that

kind of profit margin?

Edwin is in Panama.

Currency?

We have to bring back

a sh*t-ton to make it

worth our while.

All right, so I'll

bring back a sh*t-ton.

Okay, 15 million on

four stacks this big.

It's like the size

of a Mini Cooper.

Where are you

going to hide it?

That's my problem.

I need the Borden's

crew manifest.

Oh, God. You got to be

kidding me.

Oh, I like Tarik Mortin.

He's a horrible chef,

but he's great on runs.

Le Cloud's a f***ing drunk.

Newlywed?

He's not great on runs,

but we've known him

a long time.

Olaf's solid,

we need somebody

in the engine room.

Well, it's no A-Team,

but it's the best we can do.

Come on, work your magic.

Make the call,

get me a TWIC card.

Hi, sweet pea.

I need you to

push through a TWIC card

for Chris Farraday.

I got your message.

It only took you

three years to call me?

Are you back in business?

No, no, no, no, no.

I need something, though.

Remember our last run?

The funny money?

I need that exact

same sh*t by next week,

but a lot more.

Four times as much.

And we need a van big enough

to transport it, okay?

Okay. I'll be here.

Come on, Mikey!

What's funny money?

Huh? Nothing.

That's just

work stuff for Dad.

Have you ever been

convicted of espionage?

Just answer yes or no,

we'll get through this

really quickly.

No.

Sedition, or conspiracy

to commit espionage,

sedition, treason?

Together?

I received your

shipping application, Mr...

Lakowski.

Mr. Lakowski.

Seor Lakowski,

I'm getting you

a 20-foot standard dry.

Would you like us to load it?

No, I've got somebody

to take care of that.

I just need the container.

Okay, we'll leave

the container

standing by for you

at the port of Panama.

And what are you shipping?

A van.

Here you go.

It takes money

to make money, baby.

Thank you.

Don't sink, Daddy.

Okay, buddy.

You're going to

miss my playoff game.

I know. I'm sorry.

Your mom is going

to take lots of

pictures for me, okay?

You guys are in charge

till I get back.

I love you, guys.

Just come home, okay?

Thank you for

doing this, Chris.

I love you.

Love you, too.

It's going to be okay.
