Junction Page #4

Synopsis: Michaela, a lost and lonely young woman, gets a mysterious message from the father she never knew, sending her on a journey to discover twisted family secrets. As she uncovers each piece of the puzzle, she descends even deeper into their warped world of pilgrims and pyromania. Dragged out to the desert, and pushed to the very edge, Michaela is forced to make a choice: preserve the delicate web that history has woven for her family, or strike out on her own and destroy the cycle of evil in her blood. That is, if she can survive the fire.

And get all the information

on the car

The security guard towed.

And one more thing.

As soon as the media

gets wind of this

Things are gonna get tight

so get someone else

To set up an outer perimeter for

them.

I need you on the towed car

and community center.

Now.

You got it.

"Nice Place To Live."

So the sign says.

Where's the shrink?

Route one.

So much for therapy.

You want to rattle the cage?

Let them get the panic out of

their system first.

I don't want them to do

anything stupid.

They got a little girl in there.

I heard.

Dispatch said she was

the one who called 911.

You okay?

Yeah.

Let's get to it.

Donald.

Donald, think about this.

We have to be smart.

They've got us

completely surrounded.

There is no way out of this.

There's nothing to win here.

We can't keep them out and

we're not going to get away.

We have to turn ourselves in.

There's nothing stopping them

from coming in here

And killing us all!

Come on, man.

Be reasonable.

No one touches the phone!

Hey!

You guys suddenly an item?

Spot.

Don't act like

you can't hear me!

- Spot.

- What?

I don't need to tell you there's

a situation brewing outside.

Congratulations, you just did.

I think we can help each other.

How's that?

I could make sure you don't do

as much time as your friends.

How are you gonna help me?

I could tell the police you

were here against your will.

Go on.

I could tell them your friends

coerced you

And it wasn't until you felt

my daughter was in danger

Did you step up to try to

protect her.

And that's when

they tied you up.

All of a sudden you're not

a criminal, you're a hero.

And what do you want?

The DVDs.

I don't want that kind of

embarrassment for my family.

You want me to...?

Destroy them.

They have a word for

things like that, you know?

Suddenly you have morals?

Listen, he can get off on dead

baby seals for all I care.

Then what's your point?

Every time you clean up

his mess, you let it go on.

Do you want to

get out of here alive?

Because if your psycho friend

kills my husband,

I'm the only one

who can help you.

How do you expect me to...

In the same room as the DVDs,

there's a box labeled

"Backyard accessories".

You'll find lighter fluid and

matches for outdoor grilling.

Break them, burn them.

I really don't care which.

I'm tied up.

Get loose.

It doesn't have to be like this.

You don't have to make this

any worse than it already is.

You let me go now,

I won't press any charges.

Is that what they say?

Is that what the kids say

when you rape them?

Do they say, "please, if you

let me go I won't tell anyone?"

I've never raped anyone!

But you want to, don't you?

No!

No one has movies like that

unless they want to!

I would never hurt a child!

Liar!

Leave him alone!

Stop hurting him!

Enough!

Hide.

You know,

with you out of the way,

That little girl might finally

start telling the truth

About what's been going on

around here.

Kids are smart, you know?

Even if you haven't

touched her yet,

I bet she knows all about you.

- We need to speak with them.

- No.

No, no, they need to know we're

not with Donald on this.

We have to reach out to them.

No, we can't do that.

- They might shoot us.

- David, just...

Remember, in the papers

last month,

When they shot

all those guys downtown

Who tried to rob that bank?

They didn't even ask them

any questions.

They just opened right up

on them,

All of them dead.

It'll be okay.

We'll reach out to them first.

We can use your phone.

No!

Sorry, sorry.

There has to be another way.

Okay.

Okay.

I'll think of something.

Don't worry.

Hello?

How can we avoid a bad ending?

I don't know.

You tell me.

What's going on over there?

Oh, just a couple of buddies

having some soda,

Sharing some smiles.

Cute.

What's your name?

I mean, you can tell me that

right?

Donald.

Okay,

Donald.

I am not challenging

your reasons

For doing

what you're doing

But it's my job

to make sure

That no innocent people

get hurt.

What if they're not innocent?

Are you telling me that

that family

Has committed a crime and

you're the innocent party?

No, I came here to steal

a television to buy drugs.

But I've since learned that my

little soda drinking buddy here

Has quite a little history of

breaking the law.

Donald, if Mr. Tadesky

has broken the law,

Tell me about it.

Let me help, son.

I don't think you can help me.

I'm the only one

that can at this point.

Where's the little girl?

She's with me.

Let her out.

She doesn't have to be

involved in this.

Talk with you later,

Lieutenant.

Getting thirsty.

No, Donald.

Donald, let the...

Donald!

Donald!

Martin, get outta here.

Just a statement.

You'll get a statement

with the rest when I'm ready.

Now get out of here,

this is a restricted area.

Is there a girl in there?

Come on, we received a report

That a girl called 911

from inside the house.

No comment.

How are you coping, Lieutenant?

Come on,

give me a break.

Did someone say break?

Beat it.

Okay!

You okay?

Stop asking me that.

Stop making me ask it.

What do we have on

Connor Tadesky?

We haven't looked.

Maybe we should.

You don't believe this kid,

do you?

He's probably jerking us around.

He is jerking us around.

"Sodas and smiles?"

Come on, Charlie.

Focus.

Look, I know what's going

through your head.

Is that right?

- This isn't downtown.

- Jimmy.

What happened was unfortunate

but we were all cleared then,

Which means you gotta

be clear now.

Just pull up anything

you can on him, okay?

Fine.

I'll get someone on it.

Please...

Please...

Please...

Please...

No, no...

No.

Okay.

Okay.

Find any and all targets

and hold.

Confirm.

Confirm, affirmative,

in position.

Roger that.

This is Walters.

Is he in?

Phone, phone.

This is Lieutenant Tarelli.

Okay, here it is.

I want a camera crew

with a live feed.

I want twenty minutes to

tell everyone about this man.

You do that.

I'll come out

and all of this will end.

Donald, I don't know if I can...

Then we don't have a deal and

you're wasting my time.

If I can swing this

for you,

I'm going to need something

in return.

I'm going to need the girl,

Donald.

You'll get the whole package or

nothing when you deliver.

The end.

Mia?

Tai.

I'm getting the impression

you're not telling me something.

No, it's not that.

There's just been

some complications.

Maybe I can help.

No, there's nothing you can do.

Mia?

Where's my television, David?

I have it.

It's not in pieces, is it,

you tweaker?

David.

No, of course not.

David.

I called him.

I'll call you, I just need...

It's Lieutenant Tarelli.

W-, Was that Kari?

Uh, yeah.

Did she just say the word,

"Lieutenant?"

No, ummm...

Phone.

It's me.

Clean the shed.

Now.

I don't care

that it's your birthday.

Go down there and clean

the shed top to bottom

Or I stop paying the mortgage

now and forever.

Yeah, call me when it's done.
