[woman grunting]
[woman continues grunting]
[woman kicks] -[man groans]
[woman breathing heavily]
[tape screeches]
[both grunting]
[birds chirping]
[Greg strains]
[Greg] That's everything.
Uh, everything but the couch.
I can't even... -Oh, God. [chuckles]
Don't worry, Cass. I'll be back
for it soon enough. [chuckles]
I'm not sure why you hang on to that thing.
Right. -You could buy something better.
You know me.
When I find something I like
then, uh, I don't wanna get rid of it.
Like you two.
[all laugh]
[Jack sniffles]
[trunk shuts] -[Greg grunts]
Guess this is it.
I'm really gonna miss this.
Same, bro, same.
For eight years.
-Oh.
[Jack] We were kids when
we moved in together.
But we'll still hang. We're, we're family.
Yeah.
-I could stay, you know.
[laughs]
Not sure why we gotta quit the party now.
Well, we're getting married.
Mmm.
Growing up.
Yeah, growing up.
[sighs] -But cool forever?
Yeah. Cool forever.
-Cool forever.
[all laugh]
I love you guys.
On serious, Cass... don't
curb the couch, yeah?
You got two weeks.
-[Jack laughs]
And then its bulky ass will be right here.
[Jack laughs] Love you, bro.
[exhales deeply]
[Jack] Good morning.
Good morning. -Ooh, looks delicious.
So does breakfast.
Mmm. [kisses]
[chair screeches]
This time tomorrow, we'll be getting ready.
I know.
Well, don't act too excited.
I'm, I'm excited. See.
Do you wanna drive over
together to the church?
I thought the groom wasn't
supposed to see the bride
before the wedding.
You wanna follow tradition?
Mmm. [slurps]
Anyway, I was talking about this morning.
This morning? -To go over placement.
You playing with me right now?
Babe, I'm so sorry.
Like I-I forgot to put it in my calendar.
It's like, I'm juggling a
lot right now, you know that.
[scoffs] And I'm not? I'm...
running a whole business.
You know, it's this new supplier.
All right, this might be an
opportunity to get bumped up.
Look, whatever you decide, I'm good with.
Well, mark your calendar.
Tomorrow at 4:00 p.m. is our wedding.
Cass, I know that.
You know I know that, right?
Babe?
I'm sorry.
-[door opens]
Cass.
-[door closes]
[birds chirping]
[wedding chorus playing]
[door opens]
[door closes]
[Cassie murmuring]
[Greg] Hey, Cass...
Look at this place.
He sent you.
He sent me.
Unbelievable.
And he feels bad, Cass.
If this was important to
him, he would be here.
It is important to him. H-h-he...
he trusts you.
Did you just get off work?
Yeah. Still on night shifts.
I don't know why I'm putting
so much energy into something
that Jack doesn't seem to even really want.
It's like I'm twisting his arm.
We both know his parent's
divorce destroyed him.
He was never gonna lock a girl down.
And then he met you.
Did something happen when you
were on assignment in D.C.?
Like what?
He popped the question
right after he came back
from visiting you? I-I don't know.
I just felt like something
might have happened.
I guess he just realized
what's important to him.
Then why am I worrying?
Why do you think I've lived
with you guys for so long? Hmm?
The energy you two have, it's...
it's special.
You two are the best people I know.
[sighs]
Thanks, Greg.
-Of course.
[Cassie exhales deeply]
[laughter]
[Greg] Hmm.
[Cassie clears throat] -Uh.
[Greg sniffles]
So, uh... what are you thinking, huh?
Me laid out, front and
center on the cross, naked?
'Cause, um, I'll do it if you want.
Only if you want.
-[Cassie laughs]
I'm not telling what I like
You ever thinking twice?
[zipper closes]
Perfect.
Oh, you have got great taste.
Is that why you keep me around?
Well, that and you're the only
business partner who will tolerate me.
True.
So, tomorrow is the big day.
Uh-huh.
-Mm-hmm?
Yeah, it all just feels
like a little surreal.
Well, you know, I do know
one way to make it feel real.
We are putting on that dress.
[sighs] Ariel.
Nobody's here. And it's
like, the perfect thing.
You're wearing our own product.
It's like the best sales pitch.
Come on.
[sighs]
[Ariel] It's dress up time.
Jack still checked out?
-Mm-hmm.
What is that man's malfunction?
I don't know. I know he loves me.
I-I know. It's just,
sometimes I feel like he's
letting me plan a wedding for
me and he'll just ditch me.
Honey, we've been over this.
He's not gonna dip out.
He's done it before.
Oh, are you still pressed
over that Sylvia chick?
She's nothing.
Nothing?
He ditched me for over a year.
[sighs sharply]
[Ariel laughs]
Cassie...
no one is dipping out on that.
It is kind of nice, right?
That's what I've been sayin'. Oh.
[Ariel] What was that name of that girl
that Greg hooked up with?
- What was her name again?
- Stop. Don't do it.
You know, she had that snaggletooth.
[Cassie gasps] Snaggletooth May.
Yes!
-May!
Oh, my God, that girl was crazy.
But not as crazy as Crazy Sylvia.
Ooh, babe.
-[Ariel] Ooh.
I thought you said you weren't
bringing that up anymore.
I'm never letting that go.
Well, um, I guess that's
our cue to head out.
Yeah.
-[Ariel laughs]
It must be nice to have
friends who don't drink.
Your regular DD.
All right, let me call this car.
Why does it have to be a strip club?
It's tradition.
-Yes, Cassandra.
The commodification of women is tradition.
Okay, babe, I love you, you know that.
Nothing will happen.
-Okay, let's go.
[Jack] Yeah.
Aw, Greggy, are you, are you jealous?
Because, you know, you could
always give it a shot with, um,
with May.
Always great seeing you, Ariel.
And same to you. Have a good day.
Hey, um, take care of our man, yeah?
Yeah, of course. He's in good hands.
Have fun.
-Later.
Whoo! [laughs]
[both laugh]
[upbeat song in bar]
Yes! Cheers to the bride!
[all cheering] -[glass clinks]
Hmm.
Did it always look like this in here?
Yeah, but back in college
you were more focused on
what the bottom of the glass looked like.
True.
-Mm-mm.
Uh-uh, no, no.
Don't you be thinking about the boys, okay?
You got me right here.
Sorry.
-[Ariel] Mmm.
Just why the strip club?
[song on strip club]
Cassie's worried about you
getting cold feet today.
She was?
Sending me to help her out at the church?
And don't you worry, I...
I smoothed it all over.
No, I just had to pick up her ring.
I accidentally booked the
appointment at the same time.
Oh, I want to show it to you.
[laughs]
[Greg] Let me take a look at this.
[Jack laughs] -Nice.
How's it been having Greg out of the house?
Sometimes it still feels like
he's away on a travel nursing assignment.
Like, eight years is kind of a long
time to have the third wheel.
They've just been so close for so long.
And when my parents died, the
house felt so big and empty.
Those two moving in freshman year,
you know, really kept me from losing it.
It's like I told you, bro, it's your life.
You ain't gotta get married
if you don't want to.
I love her, okay?
You can love Cass without a wedding.
Love exists in many forms.
He's not the only family
that I met in college.
When I saw you senior year, I was like,
"Uh-huh. There goes my business partner."
Is it the hair? -I mean, obviously.
[both laugh]
You know, but seriously, all jokes aside,
I am just so glad
that we can all be there together tomorrow
as your family.
Thank you.
She, uh, she asked me about
when you came to visit me.
Asked if anything happened.
You didn't tell her yet?
-No.
No. A-and she doesn't need to know.
Don't you think she deserves to know truth?
[laughs] Look, just... just leave it.
Come on. I think Cass is cool.
Come on, I think she'd understand...
Just leave it.
She got...
-Leave it.
Hey, ladies. From the gentleman over there.
Thank you.
-[Cassie] Thank you.
- Girl, I guess I still got it.
- Oh, you've been got it.
Well, the way Jack's been
acting the last few days,
sometimes I feel invisible.
[Ariel] Still?
We had sex last night,
but after this drought,
barely feels like a consolation prize.
Wait, when did this start again?
Wedding planning.
[song on strip club]
[men cheering and howling]
[indistinct]
[Ariel laughing] -[phone
message tone chimes]
My, God.
Look at what Greg just sent me.
Oh. Oh, he's trying to
get you all riled up.
He's just joking around.
"Wanna join us?"
I don't get that guy.
He can be a little Greg
sometimes, but he's loyal.
So what made you choose Jack over Greg?
It just seems like he's
the one you wouldn't be
worried about running.
Greg and I almost hooked up once
back when Jack was seeing Crazy Sylvia,
but I kinda froze up.
I just really missed Jack.
So where to, huh?
Your house? Bermuda?
-[laughs] Bermuda.
That would actually be dope.
That's a good...
Yeah.
-I like that.
Yeah. There's another scenario.
What? What scenario?
How great have these last year's been, huh?
You, me, Cassie, all together.
Just don't deny it.
-No, I'm not.
It's been, it's been great.
Honestly, good times.
-Yeah.
Then why break something that ain't broken?
What are you suggesting?
The three of us, three of us can work...
and we can work forever.
Are-are you for real? What? [chuckles]
Look, I-I love you, man,
but we can't all actually
live together forever.
Bro, that's like...
After everything that we shared.
You know, I would have
thought you would get more
open minded than this.
Okay, you know, I'm-I'm
calling a Quick List.
What? No. Stop, stop.
All right, stop, you know.
Now come on, I want to make...
No, no, I'm-I'm good.
Hey, I wanna make sure
you get home all right.
I'll manage.
[sighs]
[door squeaks shut]
Jack?
[message tone chimes]
[typing]
[birds chirping]
[message tone chimes]
Ladies got the flow
the ladies got the flow
[Ariel] Oh, my gosh.
[gasps]
You're a miracle worker.
Ariel thought we should have
multiple drinks last night
and I didn't think we'd be able
to get rid of these circles.
Please don't blame me.
Blame the zetti that kept
giving us cocktails all night.
[knock on door] -Stop it. [gasps]
[Ariel] Oh. -Oh, maybe, it's Jack.
Okay, we spoiling the surprise now.
[door opens]
Oh. Well, hello, Nurse Greg.
Are you ready for us?
Have you heard from Jack?
What do you mean, have I heard from Jack?
Have you?
-Wait. What?
What's up? Where's Jack?
He said he'd be here hours ago,
but I can't find him anywhere.
I haven't talked to him today.
I've been worried, but I
thought he wanted a surprise.
He sent me a text last night,
"See you at church." It was so cryptic.
[Jack] It's Jack's phone,
I'm not here right now...
[sighs sharply] What happened last night?
We went to the strip club.
He grabbed a Quick List home.
A Quick List? You were
supposed to drive him.
Sorry, Cass. H-he was adamant about it.
I'm not sure why.
[sighs] Well, he didn't make it home.
[Jack's voicemail] I'm not here
right now, you know what to do.
I-I need to go check there.
-Wait.
What if he shows up here?
I'll go check the house.
Thank you.
[both nervously breathing]
- He stood me out, didn't he?
- No. No. Cassie, um...
He's been radio silent.
Okay? Maybe...
Maybe something happened.
We have to find him.
[smacks lips]
All right. Squad.
Squad.
[Jack's voicemail] Hey, hey.
It's Jack's phone, I'm not
here right now, you know what to do.
[door opens]
Anything?
[smacks lips and inhales]
No, uh, no one knows anything.
The girls, they called all
the hospitals in the area
and there's no patient
that fits that description.
[inhales] I called the police,
but there's not much more they can do
until he's been missing
for more than 48 hours.
They say in... most cases,
it's not a missing person's case.
Oh, God, Cassie.
I don't understand. Why
would he do this to me?
[knock on door]
[door opens]
Was he there?
No Jack.
Fucking asshole! I just knew it.
I knew something was up. I just knew it.
- It's time. Tell everyone to go.
- Wait. Cassie, are you...
Please, I can't possibly face them.
Would you please go and tell them?
I'll do it.
Thank you, Greg.
Yeah, I'll stay right here with you.
Thank you.
-[door closes]
Why would he do this to me?
Girl, I have no clue.
But you do not deserve this.
[sobbingly] Why? -Oh, God. I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Oh.
[all chattering]
I'm sorry. All right, man.
Thanks for showing up.
[knocking on door]
[door opens]
[door closes]
Everyone gone?
-Yeah.
[Cassie] You know,
I can't-I can't even get out
of this thing. If I had a pair of scissors,
I'd cut the whole damn thing off
into a million fucking pieces.
That'll be a shame.
It's a beautiful dress.
I don't ever wanna see it again.
Can I help?
-Please.
[Cassie] He didn't say anything last night?
He said he was a little
bummed to be the first one
from college to be settling down.
I thought it was all just talk.
[zipper opening]
Oh, oh, can you help me with the strap too?
I want you to know...
that I'm here for you.
Anything you need or want.
Thank you.
[sighs]
Cool...
-Forever.
[Cassie chuckles]
I'm uh, I'm glad you came back.
Thought I wanted to be alone, but...
[belt clinking]
[phone vibrating]
Hello.
[woman] Hi, is this Jack
Benson's emergency contact?
Yes. This is Cassie Tate.
[woman] Jack's been in an accident.
What?
[woman] Yes, we'd like you to
come down to County...
Oh, my God.
Yes, I-I'll be right there.
Hmm?
-[Cassie sighs]
What's wrong?
Hmm?
-[Cassie sighs]
Cass. Ca...
-[grunts]
Cass, what's going on?
Um...
-Who was that?
County Memorial Hospital in North Haven.
Uh, Jack's there.
He didn't stand me up.
H-hold on. I-I'll drive.
[Cassie sighs]
Jack.
Cassie.
I'm so happy to see you.
[shakily] What happened?
Some guy found me beat up
on the street and called
911, and I guess I got
mugged or something. I don't know.
[Cassie] Well, what
were you doing out here?
I-I don't know. I-I
don't remember anything.
Look at you.
-I could see him.
The cops are supposed to
stop by and talk with me.
[voice breaking] Oh, Jack, I'm...
I'm so sorry.
Yeah, I-I-I wish, I wish
I could have called.
By the time I got here, I was so out of it
a-a-and no one knew who to call.
And I lost my phone and by
the time I came to, it...
it was too late. I had...
I missed the ceremony.
I can only imagine what you went through.
Did you, um, did you think I bailed on you?
I should have had more faith.
No, no, no, it's, it's, my fault.
I-I shouldn't have given
you a reason to doubt.
Greg is here too.
[knock on door]
-[Greg] What's up, bro?
[huffs]
[exhales]
Glad you're okay.
What the hell happened last night, dude?
[exhales] Hell if I know.
You insisted on taking a Quick List home.
[Greg sighs] Man, you
know it's all my fault.
I should have made sure you got home safe.
No, it's just, it's just weird, man.
Like, I-I never black out like that, man.
I don't...
I don't understand.
That's, uh, Nurse Willa.
Hi. Hi.
Cass, uh, she's been
taking good care of me.
[chuckles] Uh, so everything's set?
All set. He's waiting
in the hospital chapel.
All right.
-W-wait.
[Cassie] What's happening?
[Jack] Cass, well...
Look, um...
I still wanna marry you
more than ever before.
Will you?
[chuckles]
Of course.
[chuckles]
[officiant] After all that you
two have been through today...
it is now my great pleasure
to pronounce you husband and wife.
You may kiss your bride.
Get over here.
Wait. Um...
[sighs]
[laughing] Thank you, Greg.
[Jack and Cassie laugh]
[officiant] You may now kiss the bride.
Come here.
[Jack] I love you. [Cassie] I love you too.
[both laugh]
[footsteps]
Greg.
[Greg laughs]
Hey, bud.
-Hey.
Come here.
-Thanks.
You good? How you feeling?
Not my best, clearly.
[laughter]
Where the hell did you go last night?
I don't remember, man. I really don't.
I thought you were just
saying that for Cassie.
No, genuinely, I've tried.
I-I can't remember anything about it.
Yeah. So you don't remember
trying to back out of the wedding?
I talked about that?
-Talked about it?
Jesus. Well, you're married now.
- How do you feel about that?
-[Jack] Really good.
Honestly, I almost died
and-and when I woke up,
all I could think about was Cassie, man.
Thank you for being there for her.
[laughs] Stop.
You're my best friend, right?
Yeah.
-Yeah.
I want to be here until you
get better, like always.
No, no, that's okay, man.
I mean, Cassie can take care of me.
[Greg] Really?
You're gonna ask your brand new wife
to stick around and rehab you?
Stop it, man. What kind
of honeymoon is that?
Well, I'm sure the, um,
insurance will cover a nurse.
That's what you wanna do?
Bring a stranger into your home?
You sound silly.
I'm a nurse, Jack.
I've always taken care of you.
You know, I can move back in,
at least until you get better.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's, um, actually really good, man.
Anything for you guys.
[indistinct]
[door opens]
Sorry, babe.
I hurt you? -It's okay. It's okay.
And I think the ride was
just a little bit more
intense than I expected.
Well, these will help.
You're due for another dose.
Those make me so sleepy, man.
That's a good thing.
I mean, your body needs
plenty of rest to heal.
Sleeping isn't exactly what I had in mind.
I could barely fluff your pillow.
You guys might wanna take
it easy for a little while.
Okay, now you're just
trying to kill me, bro.
It'll be worth the wait.
I could sub in in the meantime.
Greg, come on.
Joke.
[laughing] I'm joking.
Uh... here man, here you go.
All right, I'm, uh, I'm gonna
go move my stuff back in.
I figure I'll take the basement
and give you two newlyweds some space.
No. Basement?
-Stop.
[snaps fingers] I insist. All right?
Holler if you need anything.
All right?
-Okay.
[Greg laughs]
[Jack] Thank you.
Lay next to me. Come on.
Is that okay? -Yeah, yeah.
No, that's good.
[Jack exhales]
Feels so good to have you back.
Hmm.
Although...
I'm not gonna lie, you...
kind of smell... off.
[both laugh]
So you don't like the, uh,
strip-club-side-of-the-road-post-hospital
essence?
No, it's not my favorite.
-Okay.
[both laugh]
Really not wondering what
happened to you that night?
I mean, sure, yeah.
But I know I'm just kinda in a place
where I just wanna move on, you know.
I mean, the police are
doing all that they can
and even if they find
the guy, doesn't really
change anything, so...
happy to be alive.
Thank God.
-Mm-mm.
Oh, and I promise,
promise to devote every
second to you that I can...
once I can walk.
[both laugh]
Okay. Deal.
-Yeah.
[giggles]
[knocks on door]
Oh, that's quite the contraption.
[grunts]
Can't get these puppies wet.
I'm, uh, I'm gonna run and grab
your other prescriptions.
Okay, thank you, babe. Love you.
Bye.
Oh, and I ordered you a new phone.
It should be here this week.
Great. Great. Thank you.
Bye.
All right. Your throne awaits.
You sure I can't just, like,
hop in the bath real quick?
[chuckles] No.
Okay.
-[Greg] Come here, bud.
Yeah. I gotchu. [grunts]
[Greg] Okay.
[Jack groans]
Gosh, this is so humiliating.
Ah, well, nothing like
needing a little help
with what we call ADLs to humble us.
[chuckles] Yeah.
-[Greg] Here we go.
[shower running]
Hey, let me know if this
temperature's okay, all right?
That's actually really good.
[deeply exhales]
[Jack exhales]
All right.
[laughter]
You know, your mobility
is getting much better.
[Jack exhales]
That's it. Just that.
Just go ahead and relax for me.
You know, I, uh... really
appreciate you, man.
[laughs]
We made a pact. All right?
I don't forget that easily.
What were we, 18 when we did that?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Eighteen... when my mom died.
We made it through.
Everything happens for a reason, right?
[water splattering]
[Greg sighs] Well...
I'm gonna need to lift you
to take those boxers off.
Right.
-Okay.
I don't wanna get my shirt wet.
Right.
-All right.
[groans]
You got it? Yeah?
-Yep, yep, yep.
Yep, okay, okay.
[grunts]
[groans]
Okay.
-Just gotta...
Actually, I-I got it from here.
It's not like I haven't seen it before.
[laughs]
I got it.
Thank you.
Okay.
Well, uh... just holler
if you need anything.
[door opens]
[door closes]
[Greg] Hey.
Can I help?
Sure.
-[chuckles] Cool.
[TV running in other room]
Look at us.
Just like before, the
two of us cooking dinner
while Jack watches the tube.
[Greg laughs]
It's nothing like before.
Yeah, well, you're right.
Everything's changed.
Greg, stop.
My bad.
So, uh... we gonna tell Jack?
I-I don't know.
He might understand.
Or, uh, he could just get
angry and kick me out.
[sighs]
I feel awful.
We didn't know.
Maybe we could just let him
get a little better first.
Yeah.
We'll find the right time.
[munching carrot]
[laughs]
What's up, homie?
[Jack] Okay. Yep.
[machinery whirring]
[metal clanking]
[hammering]
[Greg] Cass.
Sorry.
Did I wake you?
-What are you doing?
Oh, I'm just fixing it up down here.
Jack said you wanted to.
It's 4 o'clock in the morning.
You know, how the night
shifts mess with my rhythm.
Right.
-[Greg] Oh, don't worry.
I'll keep it down.
Unless, of course, you,
uh, maybe like to help me.
Good night, Greg.
[laughs]
You okay?
Yeah.
[soft moans]
Let me know if I hurt you.
[Cassie moaning]
[breathing heavily]
Shh.
[Cassie moaning]
I don't know. Can I afford it?
There are a lot of copycats out there,
but this is one-of-a-kind.
I just don't know.
Oh, thank God coffee's here.
We will be just over here if you need us.
Take your time.
Thank you.
She's not engaged, is she?
-No.
Well, girl, what are you doing here?
I told you I'd cover the shop.
I know. I just wanted
to see a friendly face.
Oh, girl, I am so sorry.
This must be so hard.
And is Jack doing okay?
Luckily, yes.
So he said he had no clue where he was.
He says he doesn't know. But
girl, crazy lives out there.
Sylvia? How do you know?
I may creep on her
socials from time to time.
But Greg told me that Jack was
having cold feet that night.
He did, huh?
And now he's staying back at the house.
He's taking care of Jack.
But Ariel...
What?
[sighs] I feel crazy guilty.
Why?
After I thought Jack
stood me up at the church,
Greg came back and...
Oh, you and Greg...
In the Lord's house?
-Shh.
Uh, not you all. [chuckles]
I know. I feel terrible.
I mean, he took advantage of you.
I can't believe he would
do that to you and Jack.
Well, he didn't exactly take advantage.
I... I had a choice.
Uh, o-okay, well, does Jack know?
I just need Jack to get better
and then Greg will move out
and we can just forget about
it and go on with our lives.
Is that what Greg wants?
Look, I'm gonna be here for you.
Whatever you need.
Well, there is something.
[door opens]
[car door shutting]
She works here?
She used to.
Well, is she working today?
- She used to work on Tuesdays.
- And she's the crazy one?
I'm sorry.
You sure you wanna do this?
No. What other reason
would he be out here for?
Well, let's get it over with.
[door opens] -[bell jingles]
[door closes]
Cassie?
Sylvia.
Long time.
And I think we met before.
-We met once.
Ariel.
Jack was in an accident.
He's okay. It happened
somewhere around here.
He says he doesn't remember what happened.
I thought maybe he came to see you.
Why would you think that?
I thought maybe he wanted to... reconnect.
If he did, I wasn't aware of it.
I haven't spoken to Jack since we broke up.
That's nice, though.
Uh, yeah, we got married.
Well... congratulations.
Though you think he was playing you.
So that can't be too good.
But, um no, he wasn't with me at least.
So, is Greg out, then?
No. I mean, well, sort of.
He moved back in to help
with Jack's recovery
from the accident.
-Of course he did.
He couldn't let your
precious trio go anywhere.
He told me well enough.
What do you mean?
He basically told me that
he'd fuck me up if I stuck around.
Said there wasn't space for me.
I got tired of that guy always bugging me
and Jack doing nothing about it.
Anyways, I gotta go, but
I hope Jack gets better.
[door opens] -[bell jingles]
Is that true with Greg?
I mean, I knew he didn't like
her, but seems kind of extreme.
Huh. Well, at least
Jack's not messing around.
Yeah, but then why was he out here?
[keys rattling]
[car door shutting]
Greg, what are you doing?
Oh. [chuckles]
I, uh...
I just wanted to change the
vent before I went off to work.
It was getting a little stuffy in here.
Okay. -You, um, good for tonight?
I got this.
Well, call me if you need anything.
Okay.
[door opens]
[Willa sighs]
Hey, uh...
-Willa.
[laughs] Willa.
Yeah. You work here now?
I grab shifts where I can. Travel nurse.
[Greg] Yeah. Well, um, welcome.
How's your friend?
Doing better. Much better.
Yeah, he's so sweet.
Can't believe somebody
could do that to him.
Yeah, it's a crazy world.
[muffled] Hey, sweet cheeks.
Greg, have you seen the detective's card?
Jack said it was in here.
What, in his wallet?
No, I have not touched his wallet.
[Greg laughs]
Where's Jack? Still in bed?
Uh, yeah, but he's awake.
[Greg] Mmm.
Well, what do you say we go ahead
and wake him up and I'll get
him ready for the day, huh?
[vessels clanks]
[vessels clinking]
[indistinct chatter]
[footsteps approaching]
[Greg] Careful. Here you go.
All squeaky clean and ready for the day.
Are these all Jack's?
Oh, no, th-that's something else.
I'm starving you?
-Yeah.
No, hold on, bud.
-All right.
[indistinct chatter]
[shower running]
[ominous music]
Jesus, Greg! What the fuck?
[gasps] -Need a hand?
Get out!
Don't go through my things.
It's better that way.
Maybe get the fuck out of my shower. Yeah?
You sure?
Yes, I'm sure!
[laughs] Just kidding.
Hey.
-Hey.
Maybe it's time for Greg to leave.
Where's this coming from?
I guess I'm just... ready
for it to be just us.
Okay, well, I mean, if
you can take it on. Okay.
[Jack on video] I'll tell him.
[door opens]
[Jack on video] I'll
just speak to him, okay?
Hey.
-Hey.
Lunch almost up?
-Yup.
[bottle clatters]
Oh, here, let me get that.
No. I got it. Come here.
Pretty sure that's not
supposed to be in there.
I'm pretty sure you should
mind your own fucking business.
That's not for your friend, is it?
No, Willa. I just need to go ahead
and take him back to the
med room, that's all.
Well, I'd watch it if I were you.
You can get in a lot of trouble for that.
[scoffs] Can I?
[ominous music]
[car lock chirps]
[grunts softly]
[intense music] -[Willa grunts]
[screaming]
[both grunting]
[groaning]
[car door closes]
Uh, so, um... So, Greg, we've...
We've just been, uh, we've
been thinking a little...
- You sick of me already?
- Uh, no, no, of course not.
No, no, it's just, Cassie
feels like she's, uh,
she's good to take me on.
Really?
-Yeah.
Do you have any idea what it takes to care
for someone, Cassie? Huh?
Are you ready to follow this
man's medication schedule?
And, uh, what about when
he goes to the bathroom?
Hmm? You gonna be right there for him?
What if he fucking falls down?
Are you gonna be able to pick him up?
Yes. With a little effort, but yes.
You know, I don't think
you guys have really
thought this through.
Greg, y-you have been
so, so generous with us,
and it's just, we're thinking that
it's time for us to do
things on our own now.
Yeah.
-[sighs]
At least let me stay until I
finish the basement, all right?
Uh, it's almost done.
Okay, bud. Yeah, that's-that's fine.
[suspenseful music]
-[spoon clattering]
As always, Greg. [scoffs]
[ominous music]
Greg?
[thuds]
[gasping]
You went through my things again?
I was just putting your laundry on the bed.
Thank you.
-You're welcome.
How do you like it?
What? -The basement, silly. [chuckles]
Oh. Looking good. Yeah.
I gotta go to the shop
for a little bit, but, um,
you got Jack, right?
Of course.
[Cassie clears throat]
Well, um, I'll see you later, yeah?
[ominous music]
[Jack groaning]
[door opens]
Bro. Oh, stop, man.
I told you not to do this without me.
I'm just so sick of being down, you know?
- It's time for your medication.
- No, I don't need it.
We need to follow the schedule.
- No, fuck the schedule.
- Fuck the schedule?
- No, you need the schedule.
- Bro, look at me.
I feel fine.
Hey. Well, that was a hell of an entrance.
Something happened with Greg.
Oh, God, you didn't
fuck him again, did you?
No.
I found Jack's phone in Greg's things.
You know what we should try?
The basement stairs.
Okay. And?
The phone that went missing.
Oh. Oh!
Seems kind of sketch.
I got you.
I wanna show you the work I've done.
Why does Greg have Jack's phone?
That's what I wanna know.
Well, what are you looking for?
I don't know. Um, his texts, or, uh...
I should check his QuickLifts,
see where he went that night.
The trip was canceled.
Wait, Greg said he took a QuickLifts home.
I should go. I wanna talk
to Greg, see what he says.
You want me to come with?
-Um, no.
No, can you actually,
um, go to the strip club
that's where this trip was canceled?
See if anyone remembers
anything from that night.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
Okay, um, text me, okay?
-Yup, yup.
[dramatic music]
Jack?
Jack?
Jack?
-[ominous music]
Jack?
Jack?
Jack?
Jack?
What are you doing down here?
Jack?
Jack?
Jack?
Jack!
Jack!
Jack?
-Don't wake him.
He's exhausted from
walking down those steps.
What did you give him?
[scoffs] Well, I gave him his medication.
He's on a schedule.
What did you do?
I think you mean, "What did we do?"
Hey. I-it's not what you think.
Not what I think?
Oh, you think I wanna hurt
Jack, but I love Jack.
Look, and, uh, I don't
wanna hurt you either.
It's just a little prick, so...
[syringe clatters]
[screaming]
No! Get off of me! [whimpering]
[Greg grunts]
No! God!
No! Greg, please stop.
Don't do it, stop! [cries]
No, no. No!
[screaming]
Hi. Evening.
-Evening.
Um, is there, actually,
could I take a look at
the footage from those?
Oh. Not unless you have a search warrant.
Um, how about...
How you guys work. I got $200.
Just $200? [laughs] -What?
That's all the, that's all the cash I have.
It's the strip club. They have an ATM.
With those transaction fees...
Okay, all right. Can I just,
like, send you the money?
Yeah. Sure.
-Okay.
[eerie music]
[breathing heavily]
Jack.
-Cass.
What the fuck?
Greg's lost it.
Hey, fam. [chuckles] You're awake.
Greg, untie us.
Okay. Psych. [laughs]
Come on. All right, I-I
know this seems harsh,
but, uh, just hear me out.
Greg, I don't know what
the fuck's going on,
but let us go! Now.
No! No!
-Let us go.
Quit asking, all right? Both of you.
Before I give you each a paralytic
and you can't move at all.
I got sushi.
Your faves.
We're supposed to eat like this?
I'm gonna feed you. Here. [chuckles]
Open up.
-Mm-mmh.
Mmh.
-Come on. Open up.
You, bud?
Suit yourselves. [chuckles]
So?
What do you guys think?
The basement, huh? I fixed it up for us.
A little cozy, but it's
got everything we need!
Jack, we can watch all the games here. Huh?
We can have our movie nights.
Cass, you made me ready
for your work projects.
I know how important
those are to you, right?
And, uh, bedroom?
It's a king. So we're all comfortable.
This is one hell of a way
to ask for a three-way, man.
No. Oh, no. Not a three-way.
That sounds cheap.
I want us to be together in every way.
Sharing everything. Together.
It's not called a three-way
or-or even a threesome.
It's... It's, um...
Are you talking about a thruple?
Thruple! That's it. That's it.
The word sounds silly,
but the concept, it's...
It's hard.
Most people enter into
relationships willingly.
No, no. I want you to enter willingly, too.
Trust me. Trust me.
I just gotta show you guys that
this can work. I promise you.
You know, people get so
caught up in the social norms,
and you just gotta be open to it.
This ain't about social norms.
Greg, we're actually in love.
We're all in love, Jack.
No, we're not.
-Yes, we are!
And stop fucking denying it!
It's the three of us. Cool forever. Hmm?
Right?
'Cause you guys don't
even exist without me.
You need me to be you.
[exhales sharply]
I gotta go into work... bud.
I already told Ariel that you'll
be off tomorrow. [chuckles]
So she's not going to
be worrying about you.
But I don't want you guys to
get any bright ideas tonight.
[Jack] Greg. Please, come on, Greg.
Please don't do that.
Hey. Stop, stop.
-Don't do this, Greg.
Stop. It's not gonna hurt.
I would never hurt you.
Jack!
Relax, Cass.
-You fucker!
Nothing but a little sedative.
- No. Greg. No, Greg. No, no, no.
- Look, Cass, it's over.
Please. Please.
Please come work.
I just need you to keep an open mind.
No, don't. [whimpering]
Dream about it.
About us.
I love you guys.
[ominous music]
Hey, yo, Mac Man.
-Yep?
Show her the parking lot
footage from Friday night?
What time?
-Um, I'm not sure.
Maybe 11:00 p.m.?
[suspenseful music]
Stop.
Continue.
Oh, shit.
Jack.
[exhales deeply]
Jack.
Wake up, baby.
Can you wheel over here?
With your legs, yeah.
Like that, yeah.
Good.
That's it, baby.
See if you can, um, untie my foot.
[Jack grunts]
[grunts] I think I'm stuck.
This is so fucked.
How long has he been planning this?
I think... since he came home.
Look, Cass, look, I'm so sorry.
This is all my fault.
No.
I'm sorry. It's mine.
What do you mean?
Oh, God, this is so hard.
The night of the wedding,
after the guests left...
I slept with Greg.
What?
-I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry. It was a huge mistake.
It just, it just happened.
I would have never done it if I had known.
I thought you left me.
Something happened with Greg, too. In D.C.
What do you mean?
I hooked up with him.
-What?
You and... Greg?
I know. I know. I know.
I-I was trying to figure everything out
and I was confused about
us, about-about everything.
I was drinking a lot, and he made a pass...
and I let it happen.
I've asked you so many
times about that trip.
Why didn't you tell me?
To be honest, I'm not
sure how I felt about it.
Look, Cassie, this-this
accident has changed everything.
When I was out, I-I-I dreamt about you.
I-I saw, I saw our life
together, and there was no Greg.
Then why did we let him back in?
[doorbell dings]
Come on.
[knocking on door] -Cassie?
[phone vibrates]
Cass?
Oh, okay, okay.
Cass? Oh, God.
Oh, God, Cass.
Cass.
-[knocks on door]
Cassie?
Oh, she's gonna be mad at me for this.
[glass shatters] -[exclaims]
Yes!
Okay.
Cass? It's me, Cass!
Hey, Cass?
That's Ariel. -[Ariel]
Cass, where are you?
Jack?
Ariel?
-Ariel!
Cass? Jack?
Ariel!
-Cass?
Ariel!
Ariel, we're down here!
-Ariel!
[Jack] Ariel! [Cassie] Ariel!
Cass?
Ariel!
-Jack?
Ariel!
Cassie, oh, my God! What happened?
Greg drugged us and tied us up.
Help us get out of here.
Yes, yes. I got you. I got you.
It's okay. It's okay.
Huh? Uh-huh.
-Greg?
Did you come here to spoil
all the fun, Ariel? Huh?
I don't know what they told
you, but go ahead and tell her.
This is all a game.
-No, it's not a game.
He's holding us hostage.
I saw you.
-Saw me what?
I saw the footage at the strip club.
You drugged Jack and then
shoved him into your car.
- What is she talking about?
- It's nonsense.
It's, it's fucking nonsense.
What did you do to me?
What is your endgame, huh?
You wanna play house?
They tried to get away from you,
and you hurt them so you could get close.
Greg.
You know what your problem is, Ariel?
You talk.
You talk, and you talk,
and you talk, and talk.
You need to shut the fuck up already!
Ariel! Ariel!
[Ariel shrieks] -Ariel!
Get off!
-Ariel!
Ariel.
-Get, get off of her!
Ariel!
Stop it! Ariel!
Stop it, Greg! Stop!
-[Ariel grunts]
[Ariel exclaims] -Cassie!
[both panting]
[Jack] Greg, Greg, stop! Stop, stop.
[Ariel sobbing]
Greg, Greg, stop. Please.
Please, please, please.
The fuck! What the fuck? Stop!
Stop it, Greg!
Please. Please. Please.
Greg!
Fine. All right. What the
fuck are you doing, man?
It's fine, Jack.
[panting]
It's fine, Jack.
I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry that you had to see this, Cass.
She wasn't one of us, Ca...
[laughing] She wasn't one of us, right?
Don't be mad.
Greg. Greg, please.
Please don't do this.
-Shut your mouth.
It's fine. Cool forever?
-It's not fine.
It's not fine. -Huh? Cool forever?
No! No! No!
Please.
Where are you taking her?
[Greg] I'm dumping her.
[grunting and panting]
Cass! Cass!
[panting]
Fucking bitch ruined everything.
She was never one of us.
Look at me. Okay?
It's fine. [breathing heavy]
I'm gonna go ahead and give
you a little reversal agent.
Okay?
So that you can talk.
I got some things I wanna
say, and, quite frankly,
I'd like to know your thoughts.
[ominous music]
[Greg sniffles]
[chuckles]
You need your strength back, huh? I see.
Greg, please.
-[Greg shushes]
I told you. I'm not gonna let you go, okay?
I can always knock you out again.
All right. Fine. Here you go.
I'll go ahead and lock you in. Yeah?
[Cassie] Where's Ariel?
[Greg] She won't be bothering us anymore.
[sniffles]
I think...
I think it's time for
a family meeting, huh?
Huh?
You know, I thought I was gonna
have to hold a confessional.
But thank you.
Thank you. You guys did it yourselves.
And now that that cat's out
the bag and you guys both know
how much love you have for me
and how much love I share for you, hmm?
I think it's time that you
guys consider my proposition.
I wanna make you both so happy.
Both of you. I wanna make you happy.
Three of us can have it all. I promise you.
Black fucking picket fence.
The American dream, Jack.
I wanna, I wanna take care of
you guys like I did my mom.
[tense music]
But you guys are gonna
need to decide. Okay?
Are you in...
or are you out?
I'll let you guys stew on it.
Jack.
-What the fuck?
Let's consider his proposal.
What?
[tense music]
[door opens]
[Cassie on video] I mean...
Greg is great, right?
Yeah.
So maybe this could work.
You're... sure this is
what you really want, Cass?
[sighs] I think so.
Okay.
[suspenseful music]
[phone clatters]
[footsteps approaching]
[grunts]
[sighs]
Come to the decision? Hmm?
Hmm. We wanna give this a try.
Cool, right?
Yeah. Cool forever.
Cool forever.
Where, uh, should we start?
You wanna go to the bed?
Yeah.
Yeah.
[chuckles]
Yeah.
Yeah.
[grunts] We good.
Strong.
Don't get it twisted, all right?
I've hurt the ones I loved before.
Okay.
[Greg chuckles]
Um, Jack, too, right?
Yeah, I'll bring him over.
Here we go, bud. It's just
what we wanted, right?
Um, should I dance for
my two favorite guys?
Like the strippers at the club, right?
Yeah.
-Yeah.
And you have some music or something?
[Greg] Of course.
[Cassie] Hmm.
I like this song.
Great.
[button clicks]
Oh, nice.
A li-little louder.
Let's get lit
You say smoke will come
and surely take a hit
All right, Cass?
Mm-hmm.
Let's get so messed up
we forget what we did
And wake up to it yeah
Girl let's get lit
You say smoke will come
and surely take a hit
Yeah.
There it is.
Let's get so messed up
we forget what we did
Then wake up to it again
Girl let's get lit
Greg, come closer.
Mm-hmm.
I just wanna chill with you for a night
Have bunch of drinks go into the crib
I probably shouldn't be driving but
Oh well hop up in the...
I ain't trying to put
you under pressure
I could tell you want
me as bad as I want you
Um, maybe you two should,
should start first.
Of course.
[Greg] All right.
That's why I'm trying to party so hard
This, uh...
Greg, do you mind, uh,
getting the other one?
I don't mind at all, Jack.
All right.
We got to have one hell of a night
And I don't give a damn by the time
Let's get lit
You say smoke will come
and surely take a hit
I'm trying to be with you tonight
I never meant to hurt you, bud.
Yeah? -I never meant to hurt you.
Mm-hmm.
Girl let's get lit
You say smoke will come
and surely take a hit...
[suspenseful music]
Hold on. Wait for Cassie.
I'm right here.
[all chuckling]
This is it.
-Greg.
You've been so instrumental.
Oh, yeah?
How's that?
In bringing Jack and I closer together.
[Greg screams] -[Cassie gasps]
[Cassie whimpers]
-[Greg groaning]
[shatters] -[groans]
[indistinct yelling] -Yeah, okay. Yeah.
[whimpering]
[grunts]
[Jack] No...
Cass!
[Greg grunts]
[Greg screams]
[both grunting]
[squelching]
Cass.
[wheezing]
[Cassie panting]
How does that feel? Hmm?
Getting a taste of your own sick shit.
You sick, twisted fuck.
Let's go, baby, let's go.
[Cassie cries]
[Jack] Cass, Cass.
[Cassie shuddering]
Come on. It's okay.
[gasping]
[indistinct chatter]
Let's get the fuck out of here.
Oh, shit. Fuck.
Sorry, careful, careful, careful.
Okay, okay. I got you. Come on.
[both grunting]
-Sorry, one more.
Great. Okay.
Yeah, you cool?
Oh, cool forever.
Let's ditch that, yeah?
Yeah, yeah. We need our own thing.
Okay.
[siren wailing]
And neither of you had any idea
he was capable of something like this?
Nothing set him off?
No.
[indistinct radio chatter]
Why don't we finish this conversation
later at the station?
[indistinct radio chatter]
[calm music]
[birds chirping]
End of an era.
My goodness. [sighs]
What should we do with the basement now?
Ooh. Options.
-Ooh.
Workstation? Yeah.
-For sure.
[sighs]
That's it?
That's it, thank you.
[door creaks]
Goodbye, couch.
-Goodbye, couch.
He's finally gone, huh?
He's finally gone, babe.
It's you and me.
We got this.
-We got this.
I'll meet you inside. I'm
just gonna grab the mail.
Okay, yeah.
[tense music]
[instrumental music]
Here comes the bride...
Ring the bells There's a wedding
Time to get to the chapel
Something borrowed something blue
It's the color of romance
that makes me dance
All night through
So this is heaven
Knocking at the door
A wedding in June flowers in bloom
It's a swell time for lovers
No matter the weather
We'll always be together
I know dreams can come true
Ain't got no trouble
Got no care in the world
Surely everyone sees
Here the wedding bells ring
Ding-a-ling-ling
That fill the room
Will fill the home so
perfect through and through
A wedding in June flowers in bloom
It's a swell time for lovers
No matter the weather
We'll always be together
I know dreams can come true
