Sweet/Vicious (2016) s01e01 Episode Script

1 [crickets chirping.]
[The Last Artful, Dodgr's "Squadron" playing.]
[thuds.]
[heavy breathing.]
[both grunting.]
Take whatever you want.
I have money.
We can go to an ATM.
- Truth or dare? - What? Truth it is.
Do you know this girl? - Do you know this girl? - That's just your lock screen.
Oh.
Dang it.
Oh, hold on.
Say her name.
I I don't know who that is.
- Aah.
- Try again.
Beth.
Her name is Beth.
You scared, Will? You feel powerless? Do I have consent, Will? I want you to think about Beth.
Think about the music you played to drown out her screaming.
The tears that filled her eyes when you held her down, when you forced yourself into her.
No, please.
Please, no.
I'll do anything.
[grunts.]
I'm sorry.
I thought no meant yes.
My bad.
You didn't stop when she said no, did you, Will? [grunts.]
No, no.
I didn't stop.
I didn't.
I'm so sorry.
I didn't mean to hurt anyone.
Please, I'm so sorry.
If you ever do to anyone else what you did to Beth, I will be back.
Call 911.
Tell them you've been robbed and you need a paramedic for your leg wound.
- What leg wound? - This.
[screaming.]
Don't pull that out till they get here.
It's gonna get messy.
[Kids' "Sleigh Bells" playing.]
Oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh [snoring.]
[Carnage's "I Like Tuh" playing.]
- Tuh - I like to Make money, get turnt I like to make money get turnt [knock at door.]
I finally caught up on "Game of Thrones.
" - Totally insane, right? - [chuckles.]
Um, is there a person in your bed? [snoring.]
[chuckles.]
[door closes.]
[exhales deeply.]
Your pants are over there.
Oh, cool.
- Hey, man.
I'm Evan.
- Harris.
Great.
Mm-hmm.
Well, this is pretty weird.
I'm gonna grab my pants.
- You want some breakfast? - Popcorn is not breakfast.
And it's 3:30 in the afternoon.
I like to make money get turnt I like to make money get turnt - See you around.
- Maybe.
Best first date ever.
- Wasn't a date.
- Eh.
[door opens, closes.]
- [phone chimes.]
- What? Nah, I love it.
You're making new friends.
Oh, Ophelia.
What did I say about hacking into my calendar to add your activities? Yeah, but I don't check my phone, and you do.
So this just makes the most sense.
That logic is absurd.
With that being said, you have an appointment with the school counselor at 5:30.
Oof.
You want me to come with? Nah, I'm good.
They're just gonna shout hypothetical punishments at me and say that I'm not reaching my full potential, which is crazy because yesterday I hit my 6-foot bong without coughing.
You hit LeBong James without coughing? Mm-hmm.
That's very impressive.
So you're not worried about today? My parents are huge donors, and I have a perfect GPA.
I still don't understand how you have such a high GPA without attending any classes.
If you turn everything in on time and take all the tests, class is optional.
Nope.
That is not correct.
Really? It should be.
Class is so tedious.
You are a ridiculous person.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
[upbeat music.]
[indistinct chatter.]
It's so gloopy.
[indistinct chatter.]
- Hey.
- Hey, there she is.
Hi.
[exhales sharply.]
She forgot about the meeting again.
No, I missed a meeting! I covered for you, duh, but what is the deal, girl? Honestly, it was just, like, a total brain melt.
Is Mackenzie really - Is Mackenzie what? - Um, I'm so sorry.
I completely lost track of time at the library.
You've missed three meetings this semester.
Zen out, Mack.
She lost track of time.
Fiona, fill Jules in.
Total crisis.
The party Saturday is cancelled.
Omega Theta's on social probation because Miles snapped a picture of Chloe Freeman's boobs.
Like, who hasn't seen Chloe Freeman's boobs? Wait.
What if we throw the party? It is absolutely forbidden for a sorority to throw a party.
I know the rules, but think about how legendary this would be? Yeah.
Having the party on home turf isn't such a bad idea.
- Right.
- It's definitely safer - for the sisters, Mack.
- I guess that's true.
And we don't call it a party.
It can be, like, a Zeta speakeasy.
- We could ban social media.
- Right.
Right, what happens at the party stays at the party.
Oh! We should get a baby goat.
Party mascots are huge right now.
Mm-hmm.
Fine.
I'm in.
- Both: Yay! - Hey, come on.
This is going to be sick.
And and you know what? It is time for the rules to evolve.
I already regret this.
What if the national chapter hears about it? My mom and grandmother are legacies.
They will find out, and I will If we get in trouble I will personally take the fall for it.
Oh, girl, I think your stress hives are coming back.
Damn it! I have to go get my cream.
Okay.
Stay calm.
It's Harris.
Leave me a message.
Well, that didn't go amazing.
One more infraction and I'm out.
I need some alcohol in my mouth hole, so meet at Beans? [Kendrick Lamar's "Backseat Freestyle" playing.]
Ophelia, drop the weed! All my life I want money and power Respect my mind or die from lead shower I pray my dick get big as the Eiffel Tower - Move! - Ophelia! It wasn't my joint! I I was holding that for a friend! My mind is living on cloud nine Ugh, is that tart? And zoom, zoom, I'm racing All you [ .]
is losers All my [ .]
is winners Kendrick have a dream What the [both grunting.]
[grunting, moaning.]
Tommy? [Tommy groans.]
Hey.
Whoa, whoa, I'm not trying to stop this.
[grunts.]
Ow, go back to him.
He he date-raped one of the girls in my dorm freshman year.
He's a garbage person.
Oh! You are so strong.
Oh, God, I taste the wall.
[grunts.]
Who are you? Ophelia, I know you're back there.
Go, now.
[groans.]
[grunts.]
Tight.
[panting.]
Well, clearly, this wasn't me.
[door opens, closes.]
Hey, buddy, you okay? Sorry about the chair.
Save it.
Look, I'm just gonna level with you, okay? I can't get kicked out of school.
I totally get how the whole weed-then-chair thing is a bad combo in terms of good behavior, but I really, I just yeah.
I want to ask you some questions about what you saw tonight.
Could you describe the assailant you saw this evening, like his height, his build? Any identifying features? Yeah.
I didn't see much.
He was wearing a mask.
He was tall.
You know, large build.
Not, you know, like not Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson big.
More like a young Mark Wahlberg.
- Young Mark Wahlberg.
- And he totally bolted soon - as he saw me.
- Great.
If you could just keep what you saw tonight to yourself.
Yeah.
You know what? I can do that.
I just I think it'd be fair if you do the same with me.
- Ophelia - Look, it seems to me that these burglaries aren't just a one-off.
Could really send some people into a panic if they found out that they were all related.
Could put a lot of pressure on you.
Like a lot - Fine, I will not report you.
- You're a good dude, Barton.
- Step away from my client.
- Seriously? I thought I was getting kicked out.
She's not your client.
You're a law student, - not a lawyer.
- What? It's actually all good, Harris.
Mm-hmm.
I'm gonna hold you to this.
Okay, good to see you, Harris.
Have you seen this? [scoffs.]
Please.
Some rich white boy got his ass beat, so the school springs into action to find his assailant.
Do you know what Dean Charles said about my boy Skinny Jeff who got mugged last year? Nothing.
He didn't even sit down with him.
What if it wasn't random? There are two frat guys.
And another thing.
Where is the article about all the minorities getting jumped? Wait, what do you mean two? Cone of silence? So after Barton ate sidewalk, I dipped into the alley near Founders Hall and dead-end into Tommy Cope, you know, the ass-clown in Omega Theta? And he is getting his ass handed to him.
It was so brutal, Harris.
I I've never seen anything like it.
Leave this alone, Ophelia.
Promise me? This is not something your parents can buy your way out of.
Okay, what makes you think I was gonna do anything? Bitch, please.
Have you met you? Whatever comic book scenario you're playing out in your head right now, quit it.
This is dangerous and stupid and crazy.
Okay, I promise I won't do anything dangerous and stupid.
- And crazy.
- Well, one can only do so much.
[upbeat music.]
What are you doing? Mackenzie, so Jules has been late a few times.
Don't spy on her.
Mackenzie, don't.
Oh, oh.
Oops.
It's open now.
She's on academic probation? Did you know this? No way.
No, if she were on academic probation, she would've told me.
Her scholarship would be in danger.
This is serious, Kennedy.
The whole house could get put on probation.
Okay.
I'll talk to her.
Just please go take a shower.
And a Xanax.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
[soft percussive music.]
- Something I can help you with? - Oh, Barton, thank God.
Have you seen a diamond earring? I was wearing my grandmother's diamond earrings last night, and I woke up this morning and I realized one of them is gone.
I need your help.
Please.
If I lose, this I will be a full six feet under.
Okay.
Um, I mean, haven't seen an earring in a Barton, Barton, come on! Get your head in the game here, man.
I used your bathroom last night.
Maybe it's in there.
- You used my personal bathroom? - Hey, this is no time to reminisce.
Go check it.
Barton! Okay, yeah, I'll check my bathroom.
Jesus.
[door opens, closes.]
[suspenseful music.]
- Oh, found you, Sasha.
- [door opens.]
Yeah, just leave it right there.
- I didn't see any earring.
- Found it! [chuckles.]
By my desk? Ooh, it's really pretty.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
See you later.
Have a good-bye.
Uh, good day and good-bye.
[suspenseful music.]
Hey.
Is Sasha around? I have her necklace.
Sasha dropped out last semester.
Dropped out, like, gone? She just Skyped with me from New Jersey.
I'd say that's gone.
Shit balls.
I think Fiona's sleeping with the TA in our English class.
She's always going for extra help, but her grades haven't improved at all.
Hello.
Giving you important Zeta goss here.
I need you focused.
Hey, where's your necklace? Hmm? Dang it.
I must have forgot to put it on after I showered.
Hey, I need to tell you something, but please know this comes from a place of love.
I know what's going on.
Okay.
Let me explain because there's so much that you don't know and I saw the letter from the school, Jules.
The letter from the school.
You don't have to cover anymore.
I know about the academic probation.
Wow.
It's not really the reaction I was expecting.
Jules, come on.
You could lose your scholarship.
I get why you don't want the sisters to know.
I do, but why wouldn't you tell me? Is there something else going on? You know, I wanted to tell you so many times.
I was just embarrassed.
Girl, please.
How many times have I crawled in your bed at, like, 2:00 in the morning, crying over school or Nate or whatever? Okay, how about I set up some house study nights? No one even has to know it's for you.
- Babe.
- Oh, babe.
[chuckles.]
Hey Jules.
Nate! You ready for the game Friday? - You know it! - Yeah, you're the man! - Go Wolverines! - Whoo! - Both: Whoo! - [chuckles.]
Have I told you how sexy it is when people call you the man? Well, keep how sexy you think I am in mind because I have some bad news.
I'm not gonna make the party on Saturday.
Oh, no.
I got to go visit Tommy in the hospital.
I totally understand.
How's he doing? - Not great.
- Yeah.
Yeah, the guy who jumped him really messed him up.
It's crazy, especially with everything that happened to Will Powell last month.
I'm bummed to miss the party, but you know I'll be over later, right? [chuckles.]
Oh, God.
I'm starving.
Do you want some fro yo? Yes, please.
Hey, will you promise me something? - Of course.
- No more secrets.
Okay? You have a problem, you come to me and we figure it out together.
- Deal? - Deal.
Okay.
[chuckles.]
[upbeat music.]
Dude! Again? Do you know what it looks like if a cop walks in here and you're getting ready for [bleep.]
Bonnaroo? Uh, like, were all about to have an awesome time at Bonnaroo.
- Clean it up.
- [bell ringing.]
- Hello.
- Hey.
We're looking for, um - How much do you need? - Hi.
- Just, like, a half an ounce.
- Speak up.
I'm not a cop.
- Both: Half an ounce.
- Do you not see me? I see you.
Where did you get those necklaces? Both: We're Zeta.
Oh.
Well, I actually don't think I have a whole lot on me right now.
I could drop it off later.
Yeah, cool.
The party starts at 9:00.
We're the big white house on Wythe.
Do you have a twitch or something? No.
[bell ringing.]
Both: Ophelia, we need to talk.
Oh, be serious.
I'm just a law student.
I can't help you if you get caught doing this shit.
You won't even use a public toilet.
You wouldn't last five minutes in jail, girl.
Okay.
I hear you.
Oh, thank you.
[chuckles.]
And don't think I didn't see you uploading those answer keys.
Stop using the store's internet to hack into Darlington's servers.
Crazy bitch.
Stressing my ass out.
[Smallpools' "Dreaming" playing.]
Hey.
[chuckles.]
Both: Hey.
Hello.
Hey.
Can we find you someone to bone tonight? You know, nothing takes the edge off.
Oh, I'm okay.
Honestly, totally fine.
There's no need for that.
Oh, come on.
Hey.
I've been looking all over for you.
Oh, hey.
You made it.
Hey, how was Tommy? He looks wrecked.
The guy that did this must've been huge.
God, who would do something like that? Hello? This is Jules.
Sorry.
What in the [bleep.]

" Not that I watch "Grey's Anatomy," 'cause I definitely do not.
- Shoot, I got you all wet.
- Oh.
No, honestly, I prefer it.
Helps the ladies see the goods better, you know? Well, I only talk to guys with nipples, so I have to admit, I was actually walking back there to talk to you.
- W why? - Nothing weird.
I've seen you at the cafe on Grand reading David Foster Wallace.
The book caught my attention, and then you caught my attention, and now I'm realizing I sound like a serial killer.
Great.
Oh, my God, hi.
Thank God.
- The goat shit in the foyer.
- [goat bleating.]
- Sorry.

Did anyone lose their necklace thing? I found this outside.
Yeah, Jules.

My necklace! Oh my gosh! - Thank you! - You're welcome.
I have to repay you.
Shots! No, actually, that's okay Oh, gross.
Is that water? What the balls? Why are you stalking me? Why are you pretending to be drunk? Oh.
I need you to listen very carefully - to what I'm about to say.
- Oh! If you interfere in my life again, I will have no choice but to hurt you.
Do you understand? So no shots.
Yes.
Yes, I understand.
- I do understand.
- Have you seen Jules? Get out of my house.

Grosser.

Three girls have now come forward claiming they were each separately attacked - and sexually assaulted.

An hour and a half tops.
- Okay.
- Love you.

I'm not saying I have sexual dreams about Ruth Bader Ginsburg, but I'm also not saying I don't.

[gasps.]
Oh.

- Is he - Yes, um I didn't mean to kill him.

Look, he said he was gonna kill you.
Are you crying? - No.
- No, no.
You you do this all the time.
This? No! No, I've never done this before.
[heaving.]
Will you stop throwing up? Stop crying.
I throw up when I'm nervous.
You crying makes me nervous.
Okay.
Just just just take deep breaths.
We're gonna be fine.
It was self-defense, and if we just go to the police No.
No, we're not going to the police.
They won't help us.
We're gonna c c clean this mess up, and and we're gonna get out of here.
- Okay, but - Gosh darn it, no police! [stifled chuckle.]
This this isn't funny! You're gosh darn right it's not.
[both grunting.]
[both breathing heavily.]
- Should I put on some music? - Yeah, that sounds good.
I ain't playing at all, bring out the body bags I'm about to kill 'em, deliver them to [Stephen Schwartz' "Defying Gravity" playing.]
Something has changed within in me Something is not the same I'm through with playing By the rules of someone else's game Both: Too late for second-guessing Too late to go back to sleep It's time to trust my instincts Close my eyes and leap Now I'm defying gravity I'm flying high defying gravity And soon I'll match them in renown And nobody in all of Oz No wizard that there is or was Is ever gonna Bring me down I hope you're happy Look at her, she's wicked Get her Bring me down No one mourns the wicked So we've got to bring her down Why are we stopping at a bar? There's a dead guy in the trunk, and we don't have a plan.
Hence the alcohol.
We go in, get a drink, figure out what the dicks we're gonna do with "Weekend At Bernie's" back there.
This is insane.
We we can't be seen by people.
I have blood all over my shirt.
I can't I can't go into that bar anyway.
If someone saw me, it'd be weird.
Zeta's don't really go into places like this.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know there were specific sorority sanctioned rules about where you can and cannot drink after murder.
- Absolutely not.
- Okay.
Well, just keep him company then.
[honky-tonk music playing.]
[grunts.]
Would you calm down? I promise no one in here knows you.
Two whiskey rocks.
- I don't drink.
- I didn't order you a drink.
- Thanks.
- Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
[inhales deeply.]
[exhales sharply.]
Are are you okay? I'm surprisingly okay, which is probably not okay.
But I just feel like I just railed a gram of coke to the face.
- Something you've done before? - No, no, no.
Amphetamines give me diarrhea.
- Wow, you just say anything.
- It is part of my charm.
Is that what your parents tell you? No, they tell me I'm a mistake.
How did you know I was there? You're gonna get mad.
I think we're past that.
I put tracking software in your phone at the at the party.
How do you know how to do that? It's my thing, I guess.
I I don't know.
I didn't have a whole lot of friends growing up and spent a lot of time in front of the computer.
Like, a lot of time.
So now that we're sharing, how do you know how to do what you do? I know how to do things most people don't.
There's stuff happening out there, and no one is doing anything about it.
People are just getting away with awful things.
I'm trying to make some of that right.
That's the plot of "Batman.
" Is is everything a joke to you? No, "Batman" is not a joke.
"Batman" is very, very serious.
So what do we do next? Well, there is no "we".
I work alone.
Okay, first off, that is something Batman so would've said, and secondly, that sure worked well for you tonight.
- I would've been fine.
- No, you would've been dead.
So, what, you want me to teach you everything I know? You want to be my Robin.
I mean, I wouldn't be Robin.
Robin's a bitch.
[chuckles.]
- No.
No, no.
- What? - What's happening? - Don't look! - Do you know him? Is he a cop? - Rats! - Did you say "rats"? - Oh, my God.
No, I just I met him this one stop looking! Ow! Oh, he's coming over.
Rats.
Both: Hi.
I never did get your name the other night.
I'm Tyler.
Uh, J Jules.
Hi.
[chuckles.]
Wow, you guys.
As thrilling as this is, and it is thrilling, I need another drink 'cause two is not enough.
[phone vibrating.]
Hey, this is Jules.
Leave me a message and I'll get right back to you.
Hey.
Where are you? You said an hour.
It's been, like, four.
I'm just getting really worried, so if you could give me a call.
Okay.
Now do you agree we have a problem? Yeah, we have a problem.
Yeah, I I do art installations on campus.
Oh, my gosh, the the tiny robots? - Yeah.
- Wait.
- No way.
- Are you just here by yourself? Nah, I'm waiting for my stepbrother.
Yeah, he's no less than 30 minutes late to everything though.
Why? Are you looking for an out already? No.
No, not at all.
Hey, I'm just busting your balls.
[chuckles.]
Wow, you have a killer smile, Jules.
[chuckles.]
We gotta go.
I'm gonna vom.
And you're gonna drive.
You get her number? Wow, I was just about to.
Thanks.
May I get your number? Yes, that would be great.
Thank you.
[ominous music.]
Great.
- Oh, is she okay? - Oh, she's fine.
Well, does are you gonna be all right? Yeah, she's fine.
She's just she's a vomit person.
Everything's fine.
Just definitely stay inside.
Good times Good times There's gonna be good times Good times - Um, where is the car? - I know there's gonna be Worth every date till we meetings Have to turn it up on weekends Bust a toast to your real friends [bleep.]
