"You can get it to me, I'll…"
Black Bird
"figure out a way to move it in here."
Black Bird
"All right, I'm on it."
Black Bird
"You know I wouldn't ask you to do this if--"
Black Bird
"I'm not-- I'm not gonna let you down."
Black Bird
"[Lauren] We left you a few messages."
Black Bird
"Which I planned to return."
Black Bird
"You wanna discuss, uh, Rayna Rison?"
Black Bird
"[Lauren] Yes."
Black Bird
"The prime suspect walked."
Black Bird
"Why?"
Black Bird
"Truth? We never had much on him."
Black Bird
"But most folks who worked the case were sure he did it."
Black Bird
"-You? -At the time? Yeah."
Black Bird
"Now, I've come to thinking it was a--"
Black Bird
"a boy she was seeing two, three years back."
Black Bird
"He up and did a pointless, horrible thing."
Black Bird
"And got away with it for now."
Black Bird
"Do you remember the name "Larry Hall" in connection to the case?"
Black Bird
"[sheriff sighs]"
Black Bird
"I ruled Hall out."
Black Bird
"-But he confessed to it. -He did."
Black Bird
"You found evidence in Hall's van connecting him to Rison."
Black Bird
"[sheriff sighs]"
Black Bird
"Birth control pills with Rison's name?"
Black Bird
"A bottle of birth control pills."
Black Bird
"Keep your birth control pills in a bottle, Agent McCauley?"
Black Bird
"I presumed someone meant to write "pack," or "case.""
Black Bird
"No. It was a bottle with a dubious-looking label on it. Here."
Black Bird
"I checked every pharmacy for 75 miles."
Black Bird
"Couldn't find a prescription for birth control medication in Rison's name."
Black Bird
"Then, we, uh, checked her blood."
Black Bird
"Found trace amounts of Accutane, some acetaminophen, some THC."
Black Bird
"But no progestin or anything found in birth control medication."
Black Bird
"[Lauren] But when you questioned Hall?"
Black Bird
"He confessed. He told a great story."
Black Bird
"[chuckles] He was convincing enough that I thought,"
Black Bird
""Shit, what if this wack job told the same story"
Black Bird
"to a gullible reporter or cop?""
Black Bird
"I thought, "Shit, I better cover my ass here.""
Black Bird
"You, uh, look into the whereabouts of Hall the night Rison was killed?"
Black Bird
"Haven't locked them down yet."
Black Bird
"I did."
Black Bird
"He was at a Civil War reenactment in Ohio. Few hundred miles away."
Black Bird
"Found witnesses, even a picture. [sighs]"
Black Bird
"I have a picture of Hall and the witnesses."
Black Bird
"Because I manned 600 miles in over 100 hours working on Hall."
Black Bird
"I had to sit in front of a budget committee six months later"
Black Bird
"and explain why I wasted taxpayer money in a cratered economy"
Black Bird
"to ascertain the innocence of a serial confessor."
Black Bird
"So, that was fun."
Black Bird
"Larry Hall planted fake evidence on himself"
Black Bird
"for a crime no one was looking at him for."
Black Bird
"Ask yourselves, what kind of human being does that?"
Black Bird
"[sighs]"
Black Bird
"[Jimmy] Real arrowheads?"
Black Bird
"They were all over the woods behind my parents' house."
Black Bird
"So, some Indian, like, a hundred years ago,"
Black Bird
"shot at some deer and missed,"
Black Bird
"and you found his arrowhead in the pine needles?"
Black Bird
"Well, it's more like 150 or 160 years earlier."
Black Bird
"[Jimmy chuckles]"
Black Bird
"The Miami were wiped out in 1812 at the Battle of Mississinewa."
Black Bird
"How do you know all this shit?"
Black Bird
"The-- I-- Well, I'm part Miami on my father's side."
Black Bird
"Yeah, I'm part Fort Lauderdale on my mother's."
Black Bird
"So, you found some arrowheads?"
Black Bird
"And small coins."
Black Bird
"The base of a lamp. Had to be about 100 years old."
Black Bird
"[Larry chuckles]"
Black Bird
"Unless you're in, like, New York City or Chicago, the world is fields."
Black Bird
"They're everywhere. Behind everything."
Black Bird
"Next time you're in a plane, you ought to look down."
Black Bird
"It's just patches and patches of open land."
Black Bird
"[exhales deeply]"
Black Bird
"And all those fields, they got things under 'em."
Black Bird
"History. Just gotta dig it up."
Black Bird
"Oh, I miss the smell of fields in winter."
Black Bird
"It's kind of metallic."
Black Bird
"Hmm. Yeah, I miss October, November smells."
Black Bird
"Trees. Wet piles of leaves."
Black Bird
"Can be hard sometimes to pass a field around Halloween, you know?"
Black Bird
"Friday nights? Football."
Black Bird
"Th-- Oh."
Black Bird
"Because you played f--"
Black Bird
"Yeah, that was the only…"
Black Bird
"I don't know."
Black Bird
"Lie I ever loved."
Black Bird
"Why-- Why-- Why was it a lie?"
Black Bird
"That life would always be that good."
Black Bird
"I'd get the girl."
Black Bird
"We'd go off into our happy ending together,"
Black Bird
"and she'd love me forever."
Black Bird
"What was her name, the girl? What girl?"
Black Bird
"I-- I don't know. I never met her. I just thought that was the deal."
Black Bird
"You did something really well, that girls really liked to watch you do…"
Black Bird
"and then the girl showed up."
Black Bird
"And you were rewarded with her for life."
Black Bird
"What can I say? I peaked in high school. [sighs]"
Black Bird
"Well, at least you had high school."
Black Bird
"Pretty sure I peaked in the womb."
Black Bird
"[laughs]"
Black Bird
"Oh. What happened, Mr. Carter?"
Black Bird
"Last night's hockey got a little intense."
Black Bird
"Which is why you should stop playing hockey."
Black Bird
"[sniffs] Come on, Larry. You got your two o'clock."
Black Bird
"Would you leave a bookmark in there?"
Black Bird
"-Yeah, sure, man. -Thank you."
Black Bird
"They cracked my cheekbone so I could still work. Where's my money?"
Black Bird
"Won't be money. It'll be product, and I'll need to move it."
Black Bird
"How are you gonna do that, Jimmy?"
Black Bird
"If I can get it in, I can move it fast. Get you your ten grand in a day."
Black Bird
"And the Latin Kings? Black Guerrillas?"
Black Bird
"The ones who will shank you before you sell your second gram?"
Black Bird
"That's who I'll sell to. I'm not trying to deal grams."
Black Bird
"I'm trying to unload a single kilo to a single buyer at a hell of a discount."
Black Bird
"When will it get here?"
Black Bird
"Hopefully, tomorrow."
Black Bird
"No more fuckups. No more changes to the plan."
Black Bird
"His name is Jimmy?"
