JOHNSON : The family of a woman who died
after a botched police raid
intend to sue the city for $500 million ,
naming the city, the police department,
and the officers involved in the raid .
You're listening to WNYC and wnyc.org .
lt's 50 degrees right now.
We have cloudy skies over the city at 4:29.
Good morning . l'm Soterios Johnson .
[ Alarm beeping ]
[ Beeping stops ]
[ Moans, coughs ]
Remember to reset the clock.
Yeah .
-Thank you . -Look at this.
Almost 8% up from last year.
Yeah , but that's a nationwide trend now.
What are you thinking? More cutbacks?
l'm not sure.
We'll know more after this afternoon .
l caught the last 1 0 minutes
of your husband's documentary the other night.
Really interesting stuff.
l'll let him know. He'll be pleased .
lt's a real labor of love for him .
He was, what, the director?
Yeah , director.
Producer.
Writer. Voice-over.
lt's real low-budget stuff.
lt's tough to make a living in that business.
Oh , shit.
Kids!
Up! Up! Up! Up!
We're late.
Your mom forgot to reset the alarm again !
Dad , these shoes hurt.
Well , then change them .
Kristen !
Pour your juice, Jesse. Just pour your juice.
Oh , shit.
Dad , where's Mom?
She's in Cincinnati or Chicago. Someplace like that.
Oh , my God . lt's late.
l have to be at school early today.
That's not gonna happen .
Hey, Dad , do they have a Niketown in Milwaukee?
Actually, l'm just gonna call Mom .
Hey, Jesse. She is on an airplane, okay?
l know that. l'm leaving her a message.
Leah , l have to make a very big decision by this evening .
So let me ask you something .
What would you say if. . .
l offered you the VP slot?
Wow.
Do l have to say yes right now?
When do we have to be back?
We're booked on the 6:00 flight.
Let's stay over.
We'll discuss this over dinner.
COOPER: Tell them l'm five minutes away.
l've got the presentation . l'm ready to roll .
-KRlSTEN : Dad , we have to go. -[ Horn honking ]
-l really need some lunch money. -All right. l've got it.
[ Cellphone rings ]
Cooper's office. Jesse speaking .
-Hey, mom . -Morning , honey.
-These new shoes are hurting . -[ Horn honking ]
Okay, honey, we'll go this weekend and get you some Vans.
That's what you said last week.
-Jesse, we gotta go. -[ Horn honking ]
-See you later. Bye. -Good .
All right. Hang on .
Bye, kids. Love you .
Give me a hug . Let's go. All right.
Hold your brother's hand going out.
-Have fun . -[ Horn honking ]
Kristen , hold your brother's hand !
Cooper, what are you doing? lt's almost 8:30.
Well , we ran a little bit behind today.
Someone forgot to reset the alarm .
Jesse.
-No, don't go over that way. -Why not?
-Hey, asshole! -[ Horn blares ]
-Jesse, stop! Jesse! -[ Tires screech ]
[ Thud ]
Oh , my God !
Cooper?
Oh , my God !
Jesse!
Jesse! Jesse!
We've got to get out of the city.
How are we gonna do that?
So, what about my job?
Take a year off.
Write a book. You always wanted to write a book.
JESSE : So, Mom , how can we afford something so big?
We would get a lot of money for our house in the city.
Big houses in the country cost a lot less
than tiny houses in New York City.
COOPER: There are some houses that the bank has foreclosed on .
That means someone ran out of money.
So the bank can sell it at a really cheap price.
KRlSTEN : That's screwed up.
LEAH : So is your attitude, young lady.
[ Bell dings ]
MAN : l was reading the articles.
-Sure, you were. -l was.
Hi .
Could you fill it up with unleaded regular, please?
Sure.
l'm gonna stretch .
[ Groans ]
Do you want me to check the oil?
Oh , that's okay.
Great weather.
Yeah . Nice.
We're serving lunch .
Do you want me to tell you the specials?
Oh , that's all right. We already ate.
-KRlSTEN : Hey, Mom? -LEAH : Huh?
How many more of these stupid houses do we have to see?
This should be the last one.
l couldn't get it arranged to get inside.
We'll just take a quick look and be on the way home, okay?
Promise.
Where you guys headed?
Cold Creek Manor.
So if we just go on down the road here,
are we going the right direction?
Yeah . lt's about a mile that way.
Thanks.
-Wow. -Wow.
-Hey, don't fool with that. -Look.
-What? -lt's unlocked .
Here. Hold this.
JESSE : lt's unlocked .
What are you doing?
-Dad , we can see it from here. -Cooper.
-What? -We can see it right here.
We'll just take a look. Just take a little peek.
Nobody here.
Dad .
LEAH : Kristen , stay close to your brother.
COOPER: Stay together.
JESSE : Catch me!
COOPER: Kids, once again , don't go far.
[ Hinges creaking ]
LEAH : We are about to break the law here.
JESSE : Yeah , Dad . Let's break the law.
LEAH : We're gonna look around for two seconds.
Then we're out of here.
-[ Coughs ] -Oh , sorry.
Thanks, Dad .
What are these?
Those are farming . . .things.
For what?
For farming .
Yeah . Dad , we got that.
[ Birds chirping , wings fluttering ]
[ Piano playing ]
Can we buy this house, please?
lt's so cool . Can we?
l don't know. What do you think, angel?
lt's pretty cool .
Mom , what do you think?
We'll see.
[ Gasps, screams ]
We had no intention to break the law.
No harm done.
l didn't know the property was on the market yet.
Don't bother, young lady.
Mobiles do not function in Bellingham .
You folks gonna buy it?
-We'd like to. -We're thinking about it.
Well , if you decide to buy,
better you than some guru and his cult.
We could do with some new blood in the county.
You kids put your safety belts on , now.
COOPER: Seat belts. [ Clears throat ]
Okay, folks. Take care.
[ lndistinct talking on police radio ]
[ lndistinct talking , chain saw buzzing ]
Well , rather than cherry-pick the odd nice piece,
l'm willing to make a generous offer of $ 1 8,500
for the entire contents.
Excuse me. But l'm from New York, okay?
Go tell your father l need him down here right now.
COOPER: lt's a beautiful house. lt's a beautiful town .
-Dad . -Yeah?
Mom needs you .
ln a minute, Jesse.
She said she needed you now.
l know. l know. But l'm busy right now, okay?
Stan , Declan , this way. Come on .
All right.
Stan , put that box right up there.
Declan , take that box into the office.
''Grady''?
All this goes, too?
Uh , yeah .
l think so.
What about this room?
Oh , God , there's so many rooms in this house.
-Oh , boy. -Maps.
Paper work.
Maps and more maps.
''Hammerhand will find the weak. Hurl them down to rot and reek.
Bash your skull and toss you in .
Your pain is short. Your blood runs thin .
The strong are spared to breed and spawn .
Graze around the devil's yawn .''
What are you doing?
Just going over all these papers.
The kids are starving . Do you want to go eat?
Yeah . l'm hungry.
-Yeah , me too. -Look at this.
-ls that this house? -Yes.
-Look at that. -Wow.
That was taken in the '30s. Look at that car.
[ Both laugh ]
lsn't it great? Look at the yard .
Doesn't look like that now.
No. But it will again .
-Think so? -After you mow it.
Oh !
Let's go eat. l'm hungry.
Okay.
[ Chuckles ]
Kristen , would you mind hanging up the phone?
Where'd you get that jacket?
lt's Grady's.
Hot drinks. Who had the tea?
-Oh , she had the tea. -You had the tea?
-Yeah . -Tea for you .
And coffee for you . You wanting cream and sugar?
l'll take some cream .
How do they have any right to be dumping his stuff?
They bought it. They bought everything in it.
So? They could rent a locker.
They could put it in storage.
And the cream .
-Oh , thanks. -Great.
Food's okay?
-Yeah . Good . -Yeah .
l'm Cooper, by the way.
Ray Pinski . Great to meet you .
-This is Leah . Kristen . -Hi .
Jesse.
-Jesse? [ Laughs ] -Yeah .
-Kristen . -Ray.
-Ray? -Oh . My wife.
l'm Ellen Pinski . Hi .
This is our daughter, Stephanie.
Hi .
-Hi . Leah . -Hi .
Do you kids like horses?
Mom .
-COOPER: Oh , yeah . -Oh , yeah . Sure.
Well , Stephanie has a horse.
And l think he needs feeding right now.
Would that be okay?
Yeah . Sure. Hey.
Cool .
LEAH : Kristen , why don't you go, too?
Hmm? Go on . Go.
l said , ''go.''
Go. Now.
Why don't you leave that cellphone here with me?
lf someone calls, l can tell 'em where you are.
-They're at that age. -[ Sighs ] She's tough .
Kids love horses, though .
Well , basically, she loves cellphones.
But l'm hoping she'll move into horses eventually.
Hey, really, come on . Sit down .
Oh , good .
They're bonding with the Pinskis.
[ Laughs ]
-Five, actually. Five. -Five.
Then , you're locals, then , huh?
Well , l mean . . .
l don't want to go that far.
-But. . . -Yeah .
We've been here a long time.
Yeah . Takes time to get there.
l mean , we send everyone Christmas cards every year.
But haven't got one back yet.
Okay, this is a bit of a sore point.
But l don't think it's anything personal .
Did you guys get a card? l didn't get a card .
l got two cards.
Oh , you're kidding .
-You didn't get a card . -l got a card .
l didn't get a card . l'm so upset.
lt was about to fall down .
The ceiling was coming down .
Well , you're putting money back into the community.
Money back into the community.
-That's right, Cooper. -Money back into the community.
-We always say that. -Yeah .
How about that blue truck?
-Out front? -Yeah .
-ls it for sale? -Oh , yeah .
He wants the truck. You want the truck?
Well , l might, yes.
-We do? -We need a second car.
Well , that's news to me.
lt's a great truck.
lt's a beautiful truck. l'll do you a good deal on it.
Ray'll do you good .
-You better. -Oh , l will . [ Laughs ]
Could use a little work.
Okay, l want you to close your eyes.
Wonder what this could be.
Here comes a step.
Ready? Step.
Here comes another step. Ready? step.
-l'm stepping . -Whoa.
Okay, our ''neigh''bors are here.
Hi , Ray. Ellen .
-Good morning . -Hello.
What do you think Stephanie's holding?
Well , take a look.
-Oh , my God ! -[ Laughter ]
You guys are the best!
She likes it.
Well , what are you waiting for?
[ Neighs ]
RAY: See her eyes? They just lit right up, huh?
She loves it.
Want some coffee?
-Oh , l'd love some. -Come on in .
She's so surprised .
Hey, Ray.
Hey, good to see you .
COOPER: Okay. Have fun .
RAY: Don't tell me that you did this all on your own .
COOPER: This is my office.
-This is your office? -Yeah .
What's all this stuff?
lt's all things from the family that lived here before.
The Massies.
-Look at your garden . -What's this?
What's this? Final days?
Well , this is a time line of the Massie family.
That's incredible. What a project.
Well , it's what l do. l do documentaries.
-Yeah . -ELLEN : What's this?
Oh , that's the family that lived here before.
That's the pool .
Oh , listen , if you guys want to swim , come over to our pool .
That's. . .Grady.
-No, it's Lorna. -Where'd you get that?
COOPER: Oh , these tapes?
Yeah . They're gonna want that back.
Well , they can have it.
RAY: You just found the tapes here?
They were in a closet. We bought the house and the contents.
How much footage do you have?
Oh , miles and miles.
Hammerhand will bash your skull
and throw you down the devil's throat.
Hammerhand will bash your skull .
-Hey, Dad? -Yeah?
Thanks so much for Chester. l really love him .
l don't want any present for the next five years.
Yeah , l really believe that.
l'm glad , honey. Are you happy here?
l'm so happy. l really like Stephanie, too.
We like the same kind of stuff.
What about Jesse? Think he's happy?
l think he's happy.
But he's really into Grady and all his old stuff.
All his army garments.
Exactly.
lt's a phase.
l think it's really creepy.
Yeah .
Think he'll go to college like that?
[ Chuckles ] l hope not.
Think they'd send him back to us?
Yeah .
Actually, he'd probably like that.
Dad .
There's some really, really weird guy
looking at all your stuff.
What?
May l help you?
Excuse me.
l'm Dale Massie.
l used to live here.
Uh , Cooper Tilson .
Nice to meet you .
This is my wife, Leah .
Pleasure, ma'am .
Hey, young man .
That's Jesse.
-[ Clears throat ] Kristen . -Young lady.
Hi .
Do l smell burning?
[ Sniffs ]
What's cookin'?
[ Dale chewing loudly, silverware scraping ]
Mmm .
Mmm . Mmm .
[ Belching ]
That is so gross.
[ Jesse laughs ]
Mmm .
That was so tasty, Mrs. Tilson .
Thank you .
Okay.
Speech time.
LEAH : Kristen , Jesse. . .
why don't you go see how Chester's doing , okay?
Chester?
lt's a pony.
Oh . How nice.
ls it all right if l smoke in here?
Uh , sure.
Thank you .
lt's okay.
This.
lt's okay.
[ Chester whinnies ]
l screwed up.
Bank took everything . You bought it.
You're doing a great job.
This place is gonna be gorgeous.
Really gorgeous.
Look, uh , Mr. Massie. . .
Oh . Dale. Please. Call me Dale.
Dale, l feel . . .
Well , we feel bad .
lf there's anything that you want to take, go ahead .
lt's yours.
Please, don't feel bad .
A house is just a shell , right?
l mean , you live in it for a while.
Then things change.
Now it's yours.
l do have one question for you , though .
Do you know what you're getting yourself into?
Restoring this house?
-[ Chuckles ] -[ Exhales sharply ]
Yeah .
We. . .
We thought that it would take about two years
to just, you know, to get it kind of. . .
l just got out of jail .
Three years for an accident that wasn't my fault.
l need a favor.
l'm asking you both for a break here.
l really need a job.
Now, l know this house better than anybody.
l could help you fix it up.
We could start with that pool .
That is one beautiful pool out there, Mrs. Tilson .
My grandmother put that in in 1 926.
You know that?
l could have you and the kids in there
by Friday at the latest.
Really?
Mm-hmm .
l thought it needed relining .
Relining?
[ Chuckling ] What?
Who told you that? That's nonsense.
[ Clears throat ] Uh . . .
Well , okay.
Why don't we start out with the pool?
And then we'll see how it goes from there.
Thank you .
l think we're gonna be good friends.
l gotta use a rest room . May l?
Yeah , it's right out the hall and to the. . .
Well , you know where it is.
No sweat, Mr. Tilson .
Well , thanks again for dinner.
Yeah . Sure.
Sleep well .
lt's gonna be great.
Maybe you should offer him a ride.
Okay, be mean .
Where the hell is he going?
[ Sighs ]
Back to prison .
Nice.
Hello, stranger.
Hi .
l was just making something to eat.
Oh , yeah?
But l ran out of bread .
Mm-hmm .
You want some iced tea?
[ Dale grunting ]
Oh , you . . .Fuck!
[ Both breathing heavily ]
-l think he's a creep. -Kristen .
Do we have to have him around?
l told him that we would see how it went.
So we'll just. . .
-We'll see how it goes, okay? -JESSE : Yeah .
MAN : You ready, Dale?
Yeah .
[ Machinery whirring ]
All right. Kill it.
Ready?
Ready.
No peeking .

''Evil .''
Devil's throat!
You're it.
l'm not playing anymore.
-Oh , sore loser, are we? -Shut up.
[ lmitates gunshots ]
Hammerhand will bash your skull .
Hammerhand will throw you down the devil's throat.
Bash your skull . Bash your skull !
Shut up.
-[ Thud ] -Hey!
COOPER: Thus bringing active light where there was none.
Today, New York City has the world's largest concentration
of full and partial cast-iron facades.
Sorry to bother you , sir.
Yeah?
We're gonna need to spend a little money on the pump.
ls it okay to send one of the boys to the store?
-Sure. -[ Beep, video rewinding ]
Just give me a second , okay?
-No problem . -The best, from the 1 8 7 0s,
are in the SoHo-Cast lron district.
Cast-iron architecture was a mass-produced
American architectural . . .
[ Beep, video rewinding ]
New York, New York, huh?
You got a lot of great equipment.
American architectural innovation of the 1 9th . . .
[ Beep ]
[ Beep, video rewinding ]
Man , this room used to terrify me when l was a kid .
-lt was my daddy's study. -Cast-iron architecture. . .
How much?
Couple hundred , max.
-Here. -Thank you .
What do you make of these?
Uh , l don't know.
-You're a historian , right? -[ Sighs ]
-What do you think they're for? -l have absolutely no idea.
What are they for?
They're killing hammers.
Back in the day,
when Cold Creek Farm was in its heyday,
there were 20,000 sheep here.
Come the season , they were slaughtering 1 ,000 a day.
That's a lot of bullets, right?
So my grandfather and his blacksmith , they designed these.
Pretty cool , huh?
Check this out. Look at the spike.
Straight into the brain .
Small , little, clean hole right through the skull .
Bam .
No bone splinters.
And no pain .
Design got better and better over the years.
[ Sighs ] Then the bolt gun came out.
lt became redundant.
Seems to be one missing .
Yeah .
[ Paper rustling ]
What am l doing gabbing here? We both have jobs to do, right?
[ Children shouting ]
-JESSE : Hey, Mom . -KRlSTEN : Come in .
-Yeah , the water's great. -Oh , no.
JESSE : Okay, look.
lf you'll get in , l'll clean my room .
-Oh . -Okay?
-You never will do that. -[ Laughs ]
[ Lawn mower whirring ]
Aah ! Oh , it's really warm .
Okay.
Oh , it's nice in here.
[ Mower stops ]
[ Gasps, laughs ]
[ Laughing ] Hi .
Ah . Nice job.
Thank you , Mrs. Tilson .
lt's Leah .
-Like the jet, right? -[ Laughs ] Yeah .
Oh , we didn't know it was gonna be this hot.
l don't think your daughter likes me very much .
Oh . Sure, she does.
She's just a bit shy.
She's a pretty girl .
Yeah .
Just like her mama.
-The ball . -What?
-The ball . -The ball .
When do you get to see your children?
Not since the day their mother took off with them .
lt's a big country.
lf you want to disappear. . .
they just disappear, l guess.
l'm sorry. Must be hard for you .
-LEAH : Hey. -COOPER: Hey.
Come on in .
l don't know. Maybe later.
Yeah . The water's fine.
-l've got a lot of work to do. -Just fine.
[ lndistinct talking on police radio ]
So you did it.
Oh . Yeah .
Probably a foolish thing , but couldn't resist.
And Dale Massie's working for you?
Yeah .
Hey, can l ask you something?
Shoot.
Why was Dale in prison?
Uh , he had an accident with his car.
He ran some guy over, and the guy died .
Massie was sent down for manslaughter.
lt was before my time here. l was in the Army.
Okay. Can we go?
Yeah .
You met my sister?
-Yeah . Hi . -Hi . Ruby.
Nice to see you .
Oh . Who was Theodore Massie?
Dale's father.
Well , there's no record of his death .
[ Laughing ] Well , it makes sense.
He's still with us. Barely.
He's in the nursing home in Greensville.
He's a big asshole.
lt'll be a public holiday when that guy dies.
SHERlFF FERGUSON : Nice to see you .
Regards to your family.
KRlSTEN : Oh , my God ! Jesse, get out of the pool !
Just get out! Quick!
-JESSE : Mom ! -Jesse, hurry!
Get out of the pool ! Now!
[ Water splashing ]
Are you all right?
Take it easy, guys. l got him .
LEAH : Oh , my God .
l got him .
He's harmless, guys.
l promise you , Mrs. Tilson .
You don't need to be scared of this one.
-Triangle heads. -[ Gasps ]
Those you got to be careful of. Those are poisonous.
This one here. . . Twist him around .
This one here has got a straight head .
See, Jess?
You can touch him . l promise you .
Feel his texture. Feel .
Oh , hey, Mr. Tilson .
Hi .
-You want to hold him? -Oh ! God ! No.
-He won't hurt a flea. -No.
No.
[ Leah gasps ]
lf you folks are gonna live in the country,
you can't go around being scared of all God's creatures.
lt's the heat that brings them out.
[ Snake hisses ]
Come on , little fella. Put you back where you belong .
Are you okay?
Yeah , l'm fine.
There was a snake in the middle of the pool .
Jesse was right in the middle.
JESSE : Then Dale came up and got me.
And he took me out, and then he got the snake.
[ Bird calling ]
-Mr. Massie. -[ Grunts softly ]
Mr. Massie, you got company.
He's awake. He just needs time to revive.
[ Camera beeps ]
Dale?
Uh , no, sir. My name is. . .
Fix that lower gate?
Mr. Massie?
Them heifers get out?
A truck will kill one
or hurt it bad enough l'll have to put him down .
l'll be sure and check the gate. . .
Well , you better do more than check, you little bastard !
l'll whip you so hard , you'll shit blood ,
you lazy, good-for-nothing . . .
Mr. Massie!
l'm not Dale.
Huh?
My name is Cooper Tilson .
And l'm studying the history of Cold Creek Manor.
And l was hoping that you could talk to me about the place.
l don't talk to the government.
l'm not from the government, sir.
Chocolate cherries.
Chocolate cherries! Bottom drawer!
What are you waiting for, for Christ's sake?
Come on . Come on .
Okay. Okay. l'll talk.
Hoof-and-mouth . Wiped everything out.
Maybe we did cook the books a little bit.
What the hell you gonna do about it?
Nothing , sir. That was a long time ago.
Bang , went the hammers.
Bang , went the hammers down till they were all dead .
All of them .
Who was dead?
1 0,000 sheep in three days.
Bang . Next. Bang . Next. Bang . Next.
And he didn't have the stomach for it.
''Pooh . Pooh .'' [ Chuckles ]
Didn't even kill it.
Wriggling on the floor. Making noise.
l had to finish him off myself.
You see, you have to hold it like this, you know?
Pop. One bang in the head .
lt's better than a bullet. Cheaper, anyway.
And straight into the brain . Dead .
Give me another cherry.
Down the devil's throat. [ Chuckles ]
No spine is what happens when your mama's a whore.
Running off with any old cock of the walk.
Piss for brains as well .
Give me that.
Here.
They'll always be there, you know.
Thank the Lord .
Cold Creek Manor.
Tammy. Grady.
Lorna.
Give me another cherry.
l'm sorry, sir. They're all gone.
You little shithead .
Nurse. Nurse.
Nurse!
Now, Mr. Massie. What's all the yelling for?
COOPER: Thank you , Mr. Massie.
Give my regards to President Bush .
l sure will .
He means the older gentleman .
lt was lovely meeting you .
Thank you . You too.
Good luck with the house.
Thank you .
Nice to have a visitor, Mr. Massie?
He's from the President.
[ Chuckles ] No, he's not. He bought your house.
What you saying , you stupid little bitch?
He owns Cold Creek Manor.
What. . .
He. . .
[ Door closes ]
Dale!
[ Horse neighs ]
Cock-a-doodle-doo!
Oh , my God .
Wake up, sleepyhead .
Go lay an egg !
Roosters are boys.
Shut up!
Hey. Wake up!
Go away!
l'm gonna make breakfast.
Mmm .
-Ah . He makes his own breakfast. -Oh . Morning , Dad .
Whoa.
[ Coughs ]
[ Snake hisses ]
[ Sighs ]
Oh , Jesse. Jesse.
[ Screams ]
Oh , my God !
KRlSTEN : [ Screams ] Dad ! Dad !
Dad !
What?
-Dad ! -What?
There's a big snake!
There's one in my room !
[ Screams ]
[ All screaming ]
-Kristen ! Careful ! -Careful !
LEAH : Where's your brother?
Jesse!
LEAH : Jesse! Jesse!
-Oh ! Oh , God ! -Jesse!
-Oh , God ! Don't move! -Don't move!
-Don't move!
-Why?
-Just stay there! -lt's a snake.
[ Both screaming ]
[ Door slams ]
Oh , my God !
[ Both screaming ]
COOPER: lt's a wire. lt's a wire.
[ Rattling ]
[ All screaming ]
Come on !
[ Screams ]
Oh !
Calm down . Everybody, calm down !
Up! Up the stairs!
