The Bag or the Bat

"The Bag or the Bat" is the pilot episode of the Showtime original series ''Ray Donovan'', and premiered on June 30, 2013. The series premiere was directed by Allen Coulter and written by series creator Ann Biderman. Prior to the premiere television airing, the episode was uploaded to YouTube by Showtime and was previewed over 150,000 times.
The pilot episode introduces all members of the main cast as well as a number of recurring characters. The titular character of Ray Donovan (played by Liev Schreiber) works as a "fixer" for Lee Drexler (Peter Jacobson) and Ezra Goldman (Elliott Gould), cleaning up serious situations for elite Hollywood players. Donovan is aided by his team of Avi (Steven Bauer) and Lena (Katherine Moennig), and works to balance his demanding job schedule with his family life. His wife, Abby (Paula Malcomson) is aware of her husband's profession, as are their children Bridget (Kerris Dorsey) and Connor (Devon Bagby). Ray's brothers Terry (Eddie Marsan) and Bunchy (Dash Mihok) run a local gym, using their skills as past boxers to make a living. Also at the gym and in training is their half-brother, Daryll (Pooch Hall). The series begins when Mickey Donovan (Jon Voight) is unexpectedly released from prison 5 years early and is anxious to reunite with his family. Ray is responsible for his father's incarceration and will stop at nothing to protect his family from Mickey.
==Plot==
Mickey Donovan is released from prison in Walpole, Massachusetts, after serving 20 years of a 25-year prison sentence. Immediately following his release, he is driven to a church where he shoots and kills a priest (James Mathers).
In California, Ray Donovan works as a fixer for Hollywood's elite figures. He receives a phone call from Deonte Frasier (Mo McRae) who asks for his help with a dead girl he woke up next to after a night of partying. Ray sends Avi to the hotel, where he cleans the room and calms Deonte. Ray then drives to meet with his boss, Lee Drexler, who needs him to fix a situation involving Tommy Wheeler (Austin Nichols), a young movie star and closeted homosexual who is rumored to have picked up a transvestite hooker. Ray decides to merge the two cases and replace Deonte with Tommy, clearing Deonte of any involvement with the dead girl and drawing attention away from the rumors about Tommy. With Lena acting as Tommy's publicist, the swap is successful, and Tommy is taken to rehab to complete the ruse.
Lee sends Ray to see Stu Feldman (Josh Pais), a big client who needs him to keep an eye on his mistress, Ashley (Ambyr Childers). While spying on her at her Malibu beach house, Ray sees another man (Collin Christopher) masturbating while watching Ashley do yoga. The stalker, unaware of Ray's presence, runs back to his car and drives off, but not before Avi notes his license plate number. Ray, going against instructions from Stu and Lee, warns Ashley about her stalker. Ashley, who knows Ray from a prior case, tries to seduce him before experiencing a seizure.
Meanwhile at the Donovan gym, Ray's brother Terry, a former boxer now afflicted with Parkinson's disease, trains Daryll before receiving a call from Ray. Terry tells Ray that their brother, Bunchy, has suffered a relapse. Bunchy gets a call from Ray after attending a support group for victims of molestation by priests, and is eventually tracked down by Terry. Terry and Bunchy are involved in a bar fight and are bailed out of jail by Ray, and after returning to the gym Terry informs Ray that Mickey has been released from prison. Ray is also told that Daryll is their half brother, being the son of Mickey and an African-American girlfriend. Ray leaves the gym and arrives at the stalker's apartment, where he offers him "the bag or the bat". The stalker chooses the bag, and Ray dyes the stalker green and warns him never to go near Ashley again or Ray will beat him to death with the bat.
Ray arrives home to find Ashley talking with his wife, Abby. Ray drives Ashley home and warns her to stay away from his family. When driving home, Ray gets a message from Abby telling him not to come home. He stays at his personal apartment, where he breaks down after flipping through old family photos and sees picture of his sister, Bridget (Natalie Ciulla), who committed suicide while intoxicated. When he passes out, he has a nightmare where he sees his dying mother being given communion, and relives being molested by a priest. The nightmare ends when he sees Bridget commit suicide. Ray goes home in the morning and, after trying to fix his strained relationship with Abby, tells her that his father has been released from prison and is coming to California. At a party at Lee Drexler's house, Stu tells Abby that Ray had sex with Ashley, his mistress, and Ray breaks Stu's hand in retaliation.
That night, Ray and his brothers wait in the gym for their father. Mickey arrives and accuses Ray of framing him for a crime that jailed him for 20 years. Mickey then tells his sons that, after he was released, he killed the priest that molested them when they were children. When Mickey asks how his grandchildren are, Ray threatens to kill him if he goes near the kids, and then leaves. Ashley sees her stalker on her balcony and Ray severely beats the man with a baseball bat, but does not kill him, as we find out later in the series. Mickey, after using cocaine with Bunchy, goes to Ray's home and introduces himself to Abby, and his grandchildren, Bridget and Conor.
