7. TERMINATED

[MUSIC] Previously on Homecoming. [MUSIC] Temple. >> Hello, this is Colin Belfast. >> Yes. >> I need to update you on Heidi Bergman. There are indications that the medication has been partially metabolized over time, and when combined with certain auditory prompts. >> Colin, Colin, you some real fucking words. Somewhere in the past five years, what the medication has worn off, is that what you're telling me? >> There is some indication of that, yes. >> And the memories? >> Well, with targeted prompting, we will be- >> So they come back. >> That seems to be the case, yes, but only partially, okay? And not with any coherence. Barring external confirmation, I don't- >> Postural confirmation, what does that mean? >> Well, her form of clients are all overseas, aside from crews. >> Walter Crews, what's the status? >> Well, his current whereabouts are, they're unconfirmed. After the overdose, we thought it best to sever all involved. >> So you have no idea where he is? >> But Crews' condition, given the dosage he received, he's in no state to provide- >> You mean his condition last time you saw him? >> Yes. >> Which was five years ago? >> Which was caused by the medication, the one you just told me where it's off. >> Well, yes, but currently there are no concrete indications that we're under any- >> Okay, I'm getting off the phone. There is no weed, Colin. This is your- >> I don't have the means to manage this. >> That's right. >> Well, I recommend that you find the means. [SOUND] [MUSIC] >> Ariel, honey, I'm right in the middle of a work thing. >> Oh, I'm so sorry Mr. Melta, I just thought my father might want to know that the daughter is married and- >> Darling, darling, anniversary can be difficult. Okay, there could be a lot of pressure. And you and Vikas, you've had a, you've had a really rough- >> Beautiful, everything's about him, but there's- >> Okay, Ariel, I really don't have- >> There's nothing wrong with me, it's like looking to my heart, there's nothing. >> Well, there's nothing wrong with- >> It's black, black. >> Okay, listen, I really want to talk to you about this, I do, I've got a really important meeting, I'm right outside, right at the door. And I need to go in, okay? >> Okay. >> My whole year kind of depends on this meeting, but I will call you back, okay? >> Seven minds, it doesn't matter. >> Hello, honey, Ariel? >> I'll take a- I'll take a lo and star and a tequila. >> Yeah, you got it. >> Oh, man, it's been a long time coming. >> Yeah, you just get back? >> Just stepped off the plane, yeah, a couple of my buddies over there where I was fighting. They said the second you get off the plane at the base, you go straight to the spur. >> You're in the right place. >> Mm-hm. >> Oh yeah, woo. Yeah, you know what, there's a friend of mine, he just got back to, I wonder if he's been through here. His name's Gravy, Jacob Gravy. >> Gravy? >> Yeah, good friend of mine. >> Yeah, you guys in the same unit? >> It's more of a, I'm not really a liberty to say, actually, intel, kind of. But I love to catch up with him, though, if he's- >> Yeah, that's for sure, he's- >> The thing is, the reason I don't just call him myself, that's my god damn phone, I had all my numbers. >> Yeah. >> How did it with my gear, my kit? >> And it was this enormous dust storm and our whole, you know, post got totally covered in sand, and I lost my phone. >> That sucks. >> Sure does. Have you seen him, though? >> I have. >> You have? >> Mm-hm. Get some over there, isn't it? >> What? >> Oh shit, yes, at the pool table? >> Yeah, then in here, pretty much three days straight, seems a little edgy. >> Right, right. >> That sounds like Jake, that's him in the wrench, yeah, you guys are friends, you said? >> Yeah, well, briefly, for a time. >> Well, why don't we get him over here? >> No, no, right. >> Hey, gravy. >> No, okay, that's- >> You got a visitor. >> That was good. >> What? >> There's a guy up here since he knows you. You know, it might be good for him, top to the old friend. >> Mm-hm. >> Can I help you, sir? >> Hey, gravy? >> Hey. >> Jacob. >> Yeah. >> It's me. >> Dwight. >> No, you? >> It's me, Jimmy. >> That's a goal, man. >> It's good. >> Come on. You don't remember me. >> No. >> It's Jimmy from the program. >> The program? >> From my- >> Homecoming. >> Oh, man. >> Yeah, man, we were in the same subgroup. >> Right, right. >> Okay. >> But you really don't remember me? >> No. >> It's no sweat, bro. You know what? I'd forget me, too. But I just got back, and I guess I wanted to see a familiar face, and someone said you'd like to hang out here, so you know what? Sorry, man. I'll quit bugging you. >> No, it's okay. It's probably my fault. >> My memory is a little- >> No. >> I know what you mean. >> Some gaps, right? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Me, too. Anyway, that explains you. >> Hey, you want another? >> No. >> No. >> Okay. >> Mmm. >> Oh, man. Good old gravy. [laughs] Well, it was a good time, some you and me, and- >> Walter. What about Walter? Walter Cruz, remember him? >> Walter? >> Yeah. He was in the program with us. And homecoming. >> Huh. >> Do you remember him? >> Why are you whispering? >> What? >> When you say homecoming, you're whispering, isn't it? Secret. >> No, I'm not whispering. I'm just looking for Walter Cruz, and I'm wondering if- >> Okay. >> What? >> Because we're friends, all of us. >> Walter and you and me, we went through that place together, man. And now I haven't heard from him in a long time, and I'm worried about him. So you were saying you'd seen him? >> No, I wasn't. >> Have you seen him, no? I'm looking for him. >> Yeah, I can tell. >> Hey, look, look, man, I know you're having a tough time, mentally. I mean, with your memory and everything, me too, it's nothing to be ashamed of, but Walter, he needs, he needs help. That's why I'm trying to find him. Us brothers, we gotta take care of each other. >> Hey, you guys want another? >> Sure, yeah, if Jacob. >> No, he's got a head out. >> Well, could I just get a number for you? >> He's got a head out. >> Maybe you've seen him, Walter Cruz. >> It sounds like you better start moving. [MUSIC] >> Operations, this is Becky. >> Becky, hi, it's Colin Belfast. >> Good afternoon, Mr. Belfast. >> Hi, my name is Temple, is she available? >> Did you have an appointment? >> This is regarding a special assignment. Becky, directly from Temple. >> Well, there is an open slot on. >> No, Becky. >> Tuesday 345, call back. >> Becky, Jesus fucking cried. I don't have time to beg for this. This is minute to minute shit. Please. Becky. >> Very well, Mr. Belfast. I need to confirm your bio-dact. >> Come on. >> Do we really need to go through every-- >> Please, three ascending notes in your phone. >> A sending-- >> Begin after the tone. >> [SOUND] >> [SOUND] >> Temple. >> Ms. Temple, hi, it's Colin Belfast. >> Yes. >> I just wanted-- I don't have a lot of time, but I wanted to update you on the current situation with crews, and give a tick talk of the next 36 hours as far as support staff. >> Support staff, what are you talking about? >> Or just with an eye toward closing this out. In the next 36 to 48 hours. >> You've located crews? >> Essentially, I've established a very strong lead. >> Where is it? >> Well, that's why I'm calling Ms. Temple to let you know that I'll have that information within the next day. >> So you don't know. Colin, if we don't find crews, they'll be consequences. You understand that, right? >> No, of course. >> Others will be looking. We need to find them first. >> That's what I'm trying to tell you. I'm out here in-- I don't know. Valetho. >> Valetho. >> California, there's a base nearby. And I've located a close associate of crews. >> What associate? >> Another homecoming client from the same cohort. A Jacob Gravy. >> Gravy, that's a name. >> Jacob Gravy, yes. He's briefly back in the states on leave, so we have a window. Now, I'm certain they've been in contact, you know? We just need to apply the right kind of pressure. >> Colin, hang on. So you're saying-- >> It'll be a very straightforward, siop's kind of thing. We call this guy Gravy, and breathe into the phone, send him some weird mail, maybe sitting a van outside his house. >> Colin, you know, just-- >> What do you want? Are you having some kind of a mental breakdown or something? >> This Gravy, he's extremely malleable. He'll break quickly, I'm sure of it. >> Colin, this is your plan for solving a problem, stalking a client who's somehow managed to not lose his mind the first time around. >> No, I'm talking about very light pressure, very discrete. I can run this myself. Give me 10, 15 cane, petty cash. I know who to call. Totally professional. >> Colin, stop. >> No, real pros, I'm talking. They do this kind of thing in their sleep. Here's what we're going to do. You're going to come back to the office tomorrow morning. >> No, but he's here. Gravy's here. >> No, no, no, I need you to come into my office immediately. >> Why? >> We can talk, once you're back. >> No, let's just talk now. >> This is the kind of talk that's best done in person. >> What kind of talk? >> The kind will have once you're here. >> Are you firing me? >> It's just a conversation comment. Look, we'll have lunch. We can have lunch in my office on Monday. >> You know what? You can't fire me. You can't. >> I can't. >> No. >> Why not? >> I mean, we're in this together, aren't we? >> Is that a threat, Mr. Belfast? >> No, no. I'm just saying that. >> Okay, Colin, we can do this the hard way. You are hereby terminated, effective, immediately. >> No. >> If you'd like to standard exit procedures, please report to the office on Monday. If you do not appear. >> No. Please, look, we don't have to do the siops thing. Okay, that was just an idea. But let's talk. >> Colin, let's talk about. >> It's over. >> Look, look, I admit there have been errors. Okay, I understand why you might feel my performance has been lacking, but I just need a little more time, Ms. Temple. I'm talking. I'm talking, I'm talking. >> My conversation is over. Don't call this number. >> Ms. Temple. [BEEP] [MUSIC] >> Yes? Hello? >> Ms. Bergman? >> Yeah. >> I guess I'm Audrey Temple. I'm the operations executive at Geist, Emergent Group. >> Yes? >> You know what that is? >> No, I don't. >> Geist administered the Homecoming Initiative, where you worked? You were a counselor there? >> No, I don't. But I don't. I still think I should be speaking to you. >> Who told you that? >> I'm being guided. Like a proper authority. >> Oh, them. If I were you, I'd be a bit skeptical of government employees showing up after the fact and acting high-minded about the horrible things that took place at their direct request. That is not why I'm calling. >> I'm sorry. Who are you again? >> I'm Audrey Temple with a Geist Group. We administered Homecoming. I explained all this to you already. >> And why are you calling? >> Right, exactly. There we go. The reason I'm calling is that it has fallen to me to mop up this whole Homecoming mess. >> I really don't remember any of it. >> Right, you're memory. I've got that here. >> Uh-huh. So you know there isn't very much I can tell. >> How about Colin Belfast? Do you remember him? >> Colin? >> He was your supervisor at the initiative, pushy, and competent, really insecure. >> No, I know the name. He was, I remember the name. >> Wow. He was really going to be, okay, that's what we're going to do. I am going to brief you. I'm going to get you current. And then we're going to talk about the next steps. Does that sound okay? >> No. >> I've seen a case against you. We'll look so called case. It's all trumped up bullshit, no basis in reality. >> No. >> Reality of the situation was this. You were working in an unhinged, abusive environment. You were pressured repeatedly by Colin Belfast to disregard the well-being of the menu we're working with. >> No, I was there. I misled the client. >> I thought you just said your memory was shot. >> It is. >> Then don't tell me what happened. I know. I've seen the documents. Do you remember arguing with Colin Belfast numerous times? >> Maybe there's flashes sometimes. >> Well, let me tell you you did. You argued with him constantly. You know what you were trying to do? >> No. >> You were arguing on behalf of the men at every turn for their health and their safety. >> Really? >> Yes. You identified what was wrong and you were trying to stop it. >> Really? That's true. >> Yes. There's no question. Okay. Good. So now that we're current, let's talk about the next steps. Walter Cruz. He was one of your clients. He's missing. >> Walter? >> Yes. Walter Cruz. I know you two are close and we need to bring him in. >> Bring him in where? Why? >> I know you two are close. Homecoming is a production of 'Give Me A Beat'.
