Who is it?
- Who's there? - It's JJ Maybank.
Can I just talk to you?
I need to talk to you.
Oh, it's you.
Yeah.
Come in. Come… come in.
Look at you.
What a night, huh?
Let's, uh… let's get you a towel.
Is there news?
Wh… What?
They found the amulet, I assume? Too late for Wes, I'm afraid.
No, it's actually not about that. It's…
It's actually about you.
Me?
Yeah.
Okay. I just…
Yeah. I frickin'… I…
Okay, I don't know how to ask this, really, but…
Am I, um…
Are you my father?
Your father?
Uh…
What a thing to ask.
Yeah.
I guess you're right. It is odd.
But, uh, okay.
Um…
I got this letter, and I ca--
And Wes Genrette wrote it, and I couldn't make any sense--
Wes wrote you a letter?
Wow, he really…
He really wasn't there in the end, was he?
Look, JJ, you seem like a fine young man.
I'd be… I'd be lucky.
But…
don't you already have a father?
Luke.
Except he was the one that told me…
After I got the letter from Wes,
he told me that you gave me to him
after Larissa died.
Luke told you that?
Extraordinary.
Forgive me, but he's got kind of a checkered past, hasn't he?
Fugitive, I believe. Drugs?
Yeah.
No, I guess you're right.
Can you just tell me what happened to that baby, then?
My baby.
He drowned.
They never found the body.
Imagine that.
Not being able to bury your own child.
If you couldn't find him,
do you think that baby might have survived?
That that baby is me?
Let's go! Let's go!
Let's go! Move! Move!
Groff is somewhere on this island.
- And he killed Omar. - Hurry!
We keep the oath.
Let's go!
Bring him to me!
JJ, I don't know what Luke told you.
And if I…
If I had someone like Luke for a father, I guess I'd want to swap him out too.
But I…
Look, JJ.
We all draw certain cards in life.
I mean, I wish it weren't so. I really do. But…
Pick it up! Check that house.
Oh no.
What? What was that?
- That's a warning… from Demp. - Get on the ground!
A warning for what?
Trouble. Come on, follow me.
What do you mean, "trouble"?
What's happening?
- Can you tell me what's going on? - Stay away from the window!
I assume you know how to use one of these?
What is this piece of shit? It's rusted shut. You can't even open it.
Oh. Here.
It's been a while since I handled one.
You got ammo?
One round.
Come. Lucas, spread out!
Go around back.
All right, then. Twenty-five yards.
- Whites of their eyes. Good luck. - No, no, no. You keep it.
No, I'm not keeping this. Whatever this is, this is not my fight.
It is now. Come on.
Groff!
Chandler Groff!
- JJ! - JJ!
Dude, where is he?
We gotta find him before the cops do.
JJ!
Hey, you okay?
Yeah.
I'm fine. Just a long night.
Groff!
Chandler Groff!
I know you're in here.
You're a dead man.
- Okay, that's it. I'm out. - JJ, don't!
What? I got my boat.
They'll have that covered. I've got a skiff, up by the north end.
- Come on. Follow me. - North end?
- Gonna find you! - This way.
Where is he?
- I don't see him. - Through here.
Groff!
This way.
Groff!
In here. Shh!
Hurry up!
- ATV? - No time. They're coming.
Come on, in here.
- What are we doing? - Shh. Against the wall. Against the wall.
- We're sitting ducks, man. - Shh.
Check the other side.
No sign.
- This way. Come on! - Let's go back.
- Check by the docks. - Hurry up, let's go!
You got the keys?
In the ignition.
Buckle up.
They're over there! Hey!
They've got two more in the garage. Let's go!
Come on!
Where we going? Where we going?
Straight ahead. Just through those trees there.
Ah shit, they're on us.
Watch it. On your left.
Yes!
Good driving.
Stop right here.
- This? - Yeah.
- We lost them. Come on. - Who are those guys?
Don't worry about it. Let's keep moving.
There she is.
- This is the skiff? - Yeah.
- When was the last time you used this? - It's been some time.
Albatross?
That's the boat that Larissa drowned on.
I thought it sunk.
Yeah, that's Larissa's boat. It was recovered out there.
"Recovered."
- When was the last time it was serviced? - I don't know, JJ.
You don't know.
Okay.
What do you know?
Jesus.
Okay. Let's see. Hope it works.
Piece of shit.
Come on.
This way.
Piece of--
Yeah, okay. That's not happening.
Hey, where are you going? What… what are you doing?
Tide's coming in. So that current is going to push me straight across.
Tide? The current in that channel is dangerous.
That's why we have the boat.
I dunno what you did to these guys, but they're not after me.
- They're after you. - JJ?
Wait, please! That's where the Albatross sunk.
I… I can't… I can't go in that water.
I'm sorry.
But I can.
JJ… JJ, wait!
They're coming! I can't… I can't make it without you!
JJ!
JJ, please!
JJ, I'm your father!
JJ.
I'm sorry, JJ.
I don't know why I couldn't tell you.
Either you're lying to me now, or you lied to me then.
- Easy, son. Easy. - Which is it?
Run.
Nope. Nope.
Hold steady.
You again.
Hold on to him.
How you doing, buddy?
You miss me?
Now, there are responsibilities and expectations to maintain your freedom
until the trial.
And during the pretrial phase, I advise you to distance yourself
from those individuals who have contributed so much
to your troubles.
Damn straight.
Now, until your trial, you'll be required to reside with your parents.
- Yes. - To wear a monitoring device.
What? Monitoring device?
These conditions are not meant as a punishment
but as an opportunity for you
to demonstrate your commitment
to accepting responsibility
for your actions.
Good luck, young man.
Pope.
Pope, you heard the judge. No contacting your friends.
You okay?
Yeah, I'm okay. I'm all right.
All right? That ain't jewelry on your ankle, son.
Now, you heard the judge.
Get a move on.
Hot stepping.
Cleo, you know we love you.
You're like family.
But you heard the judge. You and Pope cannot be talking right now,
and definitely not here.
Maybe we all need a reset.
For how long?
Well, at least until the trial.
Let's go.
You take care, baby.
Let's go, move your ass.
- Get up there. Let's go.
- Easy, easy.
All right.
Get his ass in there.
Take this.
Come on.
Don't bother.
It's useless.
We're locked in.
Okay.
Can you just tell me what the hell is going on?
One of those guys was after the amulet. I know that. So, who are they?
Mercenaries.
From North Africa.
Mercenaries.
Fantastic. Great. And what the hell do they want with you?
They think I stole from them.
And did you?
I was trying to help them.
It was all… It was a misunderstanding.
Related to your mother, actually.
It's tangentially, in a way, going back to the Genrette family about 300 years.
If you look at Blackstone and the entire heritage--
Okay, can you stop… lying to me?
Okay?
You're overcooking it, man.
Did you know that you do a thing when you lie? You speed up.
- Do I? - Yeah.
You know how I know that?
I do the same thing.
Huh.
I mean, everything you've told us is a lie. The ghost, the curse.
Why did you do that?
Because you're trying to throw us off the scent
of what you're actually after.
You and Wes both.
Yeah.
But Wes said he actually saw a ghost.
A little… a little theater.
A mannequin.
White dress. Rattling the chains, that sort of thing.
Not bad for a Kook.
Oh, thank you.
I would've done the same thing.
Maybe a little fog machine or something.
Fog machine…
Apples and trees, I guess.
Right.
Apples and trees.
Yeah.
- Oof. This place is trashed. - Jesus.
JJ's long gone. We should get out of here.
And go where? They're probably already bulldozing Poguelandia.
That means JJ's slashing tires.
That's actually pretty likely.
Hey. You okay?
Yeah. I'm… I'm… I'm… I have to… You know, I'll be right back.
His dad comes back
and the next thing you know,
sells the house right out from under him to the Kooks of all people.
I mean, Luke makes my dad look like the father of the century.
That's crazy to think about.
And he might not even be his…
What?
Nothing.
What did you say?
Goat Island.
I think I know where JJ went.
- What are you talking about? - I'm gonna go get Sarah.
Yeah, I'll just wait out here with the police.
Mmm.
Ah. One second.
- Are you in there? - Yeah, um…
Okay.
- Look, I think I know where JJ went. - Okay.
And I can explain on the way.
Okay.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
Wha--
What is that?
Is that yours?
Mm-hmm.
So…
Are you sure?
Well, I took both for confirmation.
Mm-hmm.
John B?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah. For sure. Like, does he know?
Oh no. I just found out.
Oh.
Yeah.
Impeccable timing.
I mean… homeless.
Broke again.
- Chased by killers. - Mmm.
I don't really know how it could get better.
It would be, like, super great if maybe you could find, like, one positive thing.
You're gonna be an amazing mom.
And John B loves you.
- Obviously. - He's gonna be an all right dad.
Whoa.
And you have all of us.
They say it takes a village.
Yeah.
- Okay. - You're gonna be okay.
I love you.
I love you too.
Auntie Kie.
Whoa.
Auntie Kie.
- Whoa. - Everything's got to go.
- It'll just get loaded. Thank you so much. - Yeah, of course.
Oh, there he is. King of the Pogues.
Are you happy, man?
Huh? You had your little freak-out and now we got to deal with it.
I mean, do you ever think about the consequences of your actions?
You know what? I really don't want to talk about this now, Topper.
I can't wait until I take over Poguelandia.
Oh man.
- What did you say? - Oh, all that yesterday?
- Mm-hmm. - Whose idea do you think that was?
Great piece of real estate sitting there.
Just looking forward to tearing all that jerry-rigged bullshit down.
So you burn my house down and now you want to take my business?
Well, I mean, somebody was gonna do it, right?
You can go around busting windows and whatever,
but at the end of the day, John B, Kildare is for the Kooks.
He's gonna be happy, I swear. He's probably gonna…
Your time's up.
No, no, no, no, no.
Oh, hey, Kie. Hey, Sarah.
Looking good.
Hey, John B, not a good time.
"Looking good"? The lamest thing you've ever said.
- Bitch. - Go.
- Wait, when are you gonna…? - I'll just tell him later.
If Groff isn't going to inherit the land, he definitely can't develop it.
Which means you just straight up stole the money.
Do I look like the kind of person who needs to steal?
You tell me.
I used to clean houses for a living, and now I sell them.
Do you know how I got here? By being smart and careful.
I don't steal.
You gonna shoot me now that I've exposed your scam?
The legal contract.
Sit down.
Sit.
Me, Chandler, Goat Island.
We're all about to make a lot of money. So shut up and be grateful.
I could ruin you and your family in three phone calls.
I gave you a legit opportunity and you took it.
You played your boyfriend. So don't get all holy about it now.
Please leave a message.
Chandler, we have some very impatient investors.
They have some questions that need answering. Where are you?
Load it up, boys. At sunset we leave for Morocco.
It's not as simple as that, JJ. Will you please try to understand?
Understand that you abandoned me?
- Only came back when you needed something. - Okay.
Yeah, I understand that.
If you want to hold that against me, that… that is your right.
But, from the moment I saw you,
JJ, I knew I needed… to tell you the truth.
But why leave me?
Why?
Will you look at me?
Look at me.
Back then, when your mother died,
I was in no shape to take care of… anyone. I…
I thought it was for the best.
So the best was the Cut?
With Luke?
Wow. That's a high bar.
I screwed up.
I know that. I'm sorry.
It's what I do.
I don't… think things through.
But I've spent every day since then trying to figure out how to… fix it.
- That's why I came back. - No.
No, no. You just came back for treasure, and that's the truth.
- Don't even try. - I came back to find you.
I came back to help you.
You're my son, JJ.
We're a family. I…
That… that crown they're after,
that is our birthright.
That is our legacy.
We are so close.
I think they have the key to finding it on this boat.
And I came back to get it.
For both of us.
Okay.
So, you're telling me that JJ thinks that Chandler Groff, the heir to Goat Island,
is his real dad?
I don't know, maybe.
And I wouldn't have even told you, but he's been freaking out
ever since he got that letter, and I know that's where he went.
I'm worried.
Why would the Genrettes keep that a secret for so many years?
People keep secrets for a lot of reasons.
Okay, well, it's the last place we've looked, so dealer's choice.
Pop, I'm sorry. I know I messed up.
I know I messed up, but that is my brother.
What am I supposed to do, just watch him get lined up and shot?
- What would you have done? - I know you love your friends, son.
But there's gotta be a limit.
I mean, what is that on your ankle, son?
You could have been shot, Pope.
Now, I was talking to Uncle Roger.
He thinks we can work out a deal with Judge Holden,
who's a reasonable man.
Now, from what I'm understanding, they'd dismiss the charges, Pope.
But in return, you're gonna have to pledge yourself
to… to God and country.
The Marines?
I'm supposed to be going to college. I don't wanna go into the military.
Well, you should've thought about that last night.
You don't have a choice anymore. It's either jail or the Marines.
Now, listen, Pope, you're just gonna need to get your head around this.
And you can go on now.
There's a lot of junk that ain't got done around here because of you.
Psst.
- Hey, bad man. - You aren't supposed to be here.
You want me to leave now?
As much as I hate to say it,
I think the Marines might be my best option.
And basics, it's only three months.
You could stay here. Work for Pops.
Mmm.
I think it'd be too weird without you.
Hey.
This ain't gonna be the first time I'm out on my own.
I'm gonna be okay.
I know.
Showtime, boys.
Come on, Groff.
It's okay, son.
What is that?
Wait. Kill the engine. Kill the engine.
- We said we'd bring him. - Oh God, it's JJ.
And that's Groff.
Those are the guys from Charleston who took the scroll.
The scuba guy.
What do they want with JJ?
- I don't think it's JJ they want. - You've got it all wrong.
I don't like you, Chandler.
But this you brought on yourself.
You was just a grifter rotting away in a lockup in Tangier.
We come on in and get you out.
We welcomed you in like a brother.
Yeah, you knew Blackstone, but we had the captain's log.
We got you out of jail. We offered you a share.
Did you smile on your good fortune? No.
You faked joining us.
You stole from us.
You took the captain's log and kept it for yourself.
When we sent our man in to retrieve what you took,
you killed him.
You left him to rot in the dunes.
You killed one of our own.
You know the punishment.
That's right.
We could, like, ram 'em. Create a distraction.
Ram that?
- No, it's not even gonna leave a dent. - I don't know. Just trying to think.
- We gotta help JJ. - Wait. Guys. Guys.
We have these. We have gasoline in the back.
That's psychotic.
Let's find some rags.
I didn't kill anyone.
I was helping you. And I found something.
Found something new. You should be thanking me.
Should I?
Oh.
Thank you, then. Thank you for your help.
- I've been fixing your mistakes. - Enough!
He's a liar. Hand me a machete.
Wait, wait. You don't understand.
I… I had nothing to do with Omar.
But I know who killed him.
It was this kid. Right behind you.
He told me he did it.
He's who you want.
He killed Omar.
Hey, Blondie.
Do you know this joker?
Is he a mate of yours?
No.
- Not really. No. - Huh?
What's your game, then?
Got no game… in this.
I was just running an errand for him.
If you could just politely drop me back off with my friends,
that would be appreciated.
It's one of those situations of wrong place, wrong time.
Hmm.
There you go, then. What should we do with you two?
We're going to use the fire to distract them.
He'll get free, jump over, and we'll go grab him.
I'm not worried about that. Easy-peasy.
- Easy-peasy. - Yeah.
Just don't hit him with the bomb, please. I'd like him in one piece.
Don't hit JJ with the Molotov cocktail. Gotcha.
- All right. Anybody got a lighter? - Yeah, right here.
- Just be careful, John B. - This is gonna have to work.
- Let me do it. - Why?
Why do you think?
Didn't I promise we'd avenge Omar?
That's right.
Didn't I say we'd come back for Groff's head?
Yes.
We have the scroll. And soon we'll have the crown, won't we?
Yeah.
And more money than any of us have ever seen.
Shit, shit, shit.
But first, justice.
- They're both liars. Kill them. - Wait, wait, wait!
Oh my God.
Oh God!
Oh my God!
- John B! - Oh my God!
Oh shit!
Shit, shit. Sarah, Sarah…
What the hell?
What is that?
- See it? - Who's out there?
- You threw it up, dumbass! - What do we do? The boat's on fire.
You idiot! You almost killed us! Are you okay?
- I'm fine just… God. - Oh God!
That was a terrible idea.
- I miscalculated. - My God.
- Are you trying to kill us? - Identify yourself.
- I'm so sorry. - Jesus.
A blind bat could've thrown that better.
- Shh! - I got an idea.
JJ has that rubber slingshot thingy.
Don't get it wet. I got it.
We need another bottle.
You have ten seconds to explain yourself, or we start shooting.
Okay, clear.
- Hey, Kie. You ready? - Yeah. Hold on. Two seconds.
Five more seconds.
Further this time.
Lightner?
Bye-bye.
Shit!
Watch out! Move! Move! Move!
- Holy shit! - It worked.
- Let's go. - Let's go get JJ. Go, go, go.
Get out of the way!
Oh my God. That guy's on fire. Holy shit.
Oh, shit!
Don't let that kid get away!
Where did JJ go?
I'll find him.
Circle back around.
Jesus!
JJ?
John B!
Oh.
- Hey, it's me! It's me! - What are you doing?
- What're you doing? I know! - We gotta go.
- Get out!
They're outside the door. Just keep going up.
Yeah.
Go, go.
- Hey, John B, lock it! - Oh shit.
Not that way.
Hey, it's clear over here. Let's go.
Hold on. Grab that tube.
That must be the scroll that Sarah saw.
- Holy shit. - Hurry up!
- Don't let them go! - Oh no. Oh, machete.
- Let's go, come on! - I'm coming!
Oh God.
Hey!
- You got a plan B, John B? - We got one option.
I see them.
Oh my God.
- Okay, screw it. - Screw it.
Shit!
You see them?
There they are!
Get them!
Go! Punch it, Kiara! Hit it!
Here I go!
- You okay? - Yeah.
Oh shit.
Go, go!
Are they following?
Not yet.
I think we're out of range.
Okay. I got the scroll. I got the scroll.
- What is it? - That leads to the Blue Crown.
I thought I was gonna die.
- No shit. - Back in the G game, baby!
Oh!
