Recoil Page #4

---

Dad, could you leave

the hall light on?

You know there's nothing

to be afraid of, right?

Um, wait, I'll be right back.

And thank you for my party.

You're welcome.

I love you.

You're carrying'?

Really?

Ryan, can't you stop being

a cop for one day?

- Oh! Good shot!

- Matty, come on!

Come on, Mom!

I'm sorry.

Take as much time as you need.

Where are they?

I can't do that.

The FBI and the ATF got

a previous investigation.

Besides, those three are

just local muscle drill-heads.

We're gonna find the rest of them,

the ones that got away,

the ones that planned it,

and those a**holes are going to pay.

You have my word.

Where are they?

The sheriff wasn't too helpful.

No, my dad is just afraid.

What, does the MC

have something on him?

A long time ago...

The Circle used to

protect this town.

This was before Drayke took over

and started running guns.

And then Rex came home

with the recipe for meth.

Hope was like a frog in water.

You turn up the temperature gradually,

the frog doesn't even

know he's cooking.

I'd say the temperature

is damn near boiling now.

Varrett?

That you?

Stay away from the windows.

Get down.

When I give you the signal,

turn the lights off.

Okay.

Now.

Wow.

Thanks.

You know that door

wasn't locked, right?

Let go of me!

Let me go)!

F*** you! Ryan!

Let me go, you f***ers!

F*** you!

Let me go!

Ryan! Ryan!

No! No!

Ryan!

Darcy?

Darcy!

Hutchins, grab some men

and get down to the motel now.

They took her. I know it.

Look, just relax.

We'll get her back.

Dad, we have a situ...

Sheriff Cole, we have

a situation at the motel.

I need you. Over.

Sh*t.

Where's Darcy?

You know, my brother's sick. I know.

But he's family.

He shoulda never been left alone

with those girls.

Someone was supposed to be

watching him, so that's on me.

I'm gonna enjoy killing you.

Well, unlike Rex, you know,

I don't like hurting women.

But, unfortunately...

prospect there does.

Keep your f***ing hands off her.

Get off me!

Now you and I...

we got a score to settle, don't we'?

Ah.

I know.

I can feel that pain,

that pain of being hurt.

The pain of somebody

hurting the ones you love.

I'll see you again.

Hello again.

You ain't so tough now,

are you, muscle man? Huh'?

Hoo!

You know...

You know, you really

surprised me the other day,

out of nowhere.

You got a pretty strong

chin there, big guy.

Unfortunately, that's not really

gonna help you now.

You know, if it were up to me,

I'd just...

cut you into little bits

and feed you to the pigs.

But, uh, Drayke wants you alive.

I guess Papa wants to teach you a lesson

for what you did to me.

So, uh...

So I'm just gonna go back there

and have a little fun

with your girlfriend.

What do you think about that?

Keep your f***ing hands off of her.

She liked it the last time.

But before I go...

all right, I... I wanna

do something for you.

You know?

I wanna leave you with a little, uh,

souvenir, all right,

of your time here in Hope

with The Circle gang.

So just, uh...

just hold still, 'cause this

is gonna leave a mark.

Oof! Oh!

Aah!

Darcy.

Darcy.

- Darcy.

- Darcy!

Thanks.

You Okay?

I'm good.

Okay, okay.

Okay.

Keep going.

Dad?

Dad?

Look, I'm sorry about

your father, Deputy,

but I need you to stay focused

because you're no good to me angry.

He thought he'd take

himself out of the picture

and I'd just leave,

get away from Drayke.

All he did was give me a promotion.

We're gonna need an army

to get into that boat.

Well, looks like we've got one.

What do you think

this much product is worth?

Jesus!

Gotta be millions of dollars in here.

Impressive, isn't it?

Hide.

Yeah, that's right, Darcy.

Hide.

Ryan?

Just do it.

You remember me now?

First I didn't recognize you.

I'm not that good with faces.

Texas cop... with a family.

Ryan Varrett.

You were on a list.

I thought you were dead.

So... what's this, vengeance?

You kill my brother? You kill me?

Did you hear them scream?

Or did it happen too fast?

What does that do to a man?

You're about to find out.

Okay.

So it's an eye for an eye, huh?

You killed my brother.

So, technically, we're even.

- I made a mistake.

- Oh, yeah'? What's that?

I shoulda killed your ass first.

- Argh!

Argh!

Get up!

You should make sure he's dead

They always...

Straight through,

straight through!

Over here!

Good job in there.

Hey...

Are you sure you're

gonna be all right?

- Yeah, I'm okay.

- Okay.

You staying in Hope?

Where else am I gonna go?

You?

Yeah.

Town needs a new sheriff.

Well, I think you'll make a great one.

You fleeing the scene?

You gonna arrest me?

Oh, definitely.

But not today.

Why not?

I got no evidence.

It seems the folks of Hope

have taken a liking to you.

There's no accountin' for taste.

You were a good cop.

You only take out

the bad guys, I get that.

But sooner or later,

somebody's gonna get hurt,

somebody like Darcy.

And I can't let that happen.

I'll see you around.

Not even a goodbye?

I'm bad at goodbyes.

Well, you're not very good

at hellos, either.

So where are you going,

Ryan Varrett?

Just gonna ride off

into the sunset?

Eventually.

You gonna be okay?

Mike used to say

the worst thing about shooting a gun

was the recoil.

It bruises you.

The marks stay around for days.

But then, after a while,

you get used to it.

It doesn't bruise you any more.

And shooting a gun

just becomes reflex.

Mike sounds like a smart guy.

Yep.

Send me a postcard.

Let me know where you go.

I will.

Okay.

- Take care of yourself, okay?

- I will do my best.

Well, I think that just might do it.
