Yellowjackets (2021) s01e10 Episode Script
Sic Transit Gloria Mundi
1
Obviously, we can't leave him here.
What did you need my help with? We need you to get rid of a body.
Nobody else knows about the blackmail? - Randy.
- Randy Walsh? He's my best friend, Shauna.
I had to turn to somebody.
- You lied to me.
- I made a mistake.
Well, apparently, so did I.
I need your help.
Somebody closed Travis's bank account, and I need to find out who.
Lottie's dreams and omens and whatever the fuck that is.
- What is it? - I think it will keep you safe.
My wife moved out.
I took a 15-year marriage, and set it on fire.
For what? We have dresses, we have booze.
- We can have a Moon Homecoming.
- A Doomcoming.
Has someone seen the mushrooms? Uh, yeah.
They're in the stew.
I think Misty poisoned me again.
I think she poisoned all of us.
- Misty, just stop! - Aah! I don't love you.
I love Paul! - Who's Paul? - He's my boyfriend.
Something's coming.
We won't be hungry much longer.
You took something that doesn't belong to you.
What? Hey! No.
Gloria? When? Last night.
Another stroke.
- And she was so young.
- She was 89.
I can't believe I didn't get to say goodbye to her.
Do you know if they'll be having a service? I was like a daughter to her.
Oh, that's okay, I'll just ask Kenny at the morgue.
He's always got the 4-1-1.
Anyways, I got to go.
Just came by to grab my Tupperware.
You ladies have fun.
- Ah.
- Here.
What, are you planning on taking home leftovers? Hmm.
I needed a cover story.
I got gloves, waste disposal bags, oxygenated bleach.
Why didn't we just go to the store? Because 12% of all killers are caught buying cleaning supplies.
Also, regular bleach leaves behind hemoglobin for the luminol tests.
This stuff is the good stuff.
Well, good to know, Misty.
Listen, before we go, I just want to go over the terms of our deal.
Oh.
What do you want, a blood oath from me? I said I would go, so I'm going.
Christ, I've been looking everywhere for you.
Are you all right? I Why wouldn't I be? Well, last night, I I'm fine.
No, a actually, I'm better than fine.
I finally got laid, so I'm fucking great.
Hmm? Look, I don't care about what happened with you and Jackie right now.
I just need to know that you're okay.
Travis, they had a fucking knife to your throat.
They were going to I don't know, but I know that I said I was fine, didn't I? I'm gonna go look for Javi.
He's not here? Well, do you want any help? Nope.
Well, aren't we a bunch of Gloomy Gusses.
Who died? No, but seriously.
Who is this guy? Misty? Really? This is your big brainstorm? Do you have a better idea? I think what you mean to say is, "Hi, Misty.
It's so great to see you after all this time.
Thanks for swinging by and helping us cover up a murder.
" Why does everyone keep using that word? It's not like I woke up this morning and thought, "Hmm.
What am I gonna do today? I know.
I'll find out my boyfriend is a creepy stalker and stab him to death.
" I'm going to prison.
I'm going to prison for the rest of my life.
No, you're not.
None of us are, as long you listen to me and do exactly what I say.
Okay? So, if you haven't already turned off your phones, I suggest you do that now.
Where's his? I I took it home, and I put it in my safe.
Okay.
As soon as we're done here, you're gonna go home, you're going to wipe it and destroy the SIM card.
All right? And then do the same thing to yours.
I didn't see any security cameras.
Did anybody neighbors see you come in here? I I don't think so.
Okay, great.
Then we're just destroying evidence.
Shauna, you're the best with a knife, clearly.
So you'll handle the body.
I mean, cut it up.
Oh, God.
Are you okay to do that? - Yeah.
- I'll help you.
So, then, it's just me and Tai on, uh, clean-up duty.
Oof, boy, he sure was a gusher, huh? Well, what are we waiting for, ladies? Let's suit up and get to work.
Thanks.
Do you still remember how to do that? It's just like riding a really gross, fucked-up bike.
So, after your boyfriend killed Travis, you didn't notice that he was acting weird? Natalie, stop it.
I was with him the day Travis died.
Okay? Well, he was working with somebody else.
That's so obvious.
I need to get my hands on his cell phone.
- I need to see his texts.
- Or maybe, it's just a coincidence.
And Travis did actually just kill himself.
All this time, you've been looking for some big conspiracy.
What if the truth is just that we're all fucked in the head from what happened to us, and you're searching for answers that don't exist? No.
That didn't occur to me.
Nat.
I know what it's like the numbness, the the paranoia.
Sometimes I look at the world around me, and it's like all the light has just gone out of it.
Maybe Travis just couldn't stand to live like that anymore.
Maybe you need to start trying to forgive him.
Ooh.
I just got the craziest case of déjà vu.
And here I thought the worst thing that was gonna happen to me this week was losing this election.
Well, I voted for you.
And I only registered so I could get jury duty.
When do they call the results? Tomorrow.
Oh, God.
Is that the ? The rest is, um, draining in the tub.
Okay, perfect.
So, when that's done, put it in a suitcase and bury it out at Hacklebarney Park.
I've got a shovel in my trunk, which you can borrow.
I do want it back.
And I took the liberty of packing up some of his clothes, some books and toiletries and stuff.
And I'll take this with me and get rid of it.
That way, if anyone comes looking for him, it just looks like he went on a trip.
And after that? I mean, what if an animal digs him up? What if a hiker's dog sniffs him out? Well, it won't matter.
I mean, torsos are useless.
Duh.
That's the whole point.
You only have to worry about the head and the hands.
So, what's the plan with those? Don't worry about it.
I'll handle that.
Hey.
I, uh, I boiled some drinking water, if you guys are as hungover as I am.
Has anyone seen Jackie? I have nothing to say to you.
To any of you.
I mean, what the fuck? Yeah, like you're so innocent.
Hey, I'm not the one who went completely fucking insane last night.
Right.
No, you were too busy screwing Travis.
Whoa, hey.
Look, I'm sure that we all said and did some stuff that we regret last night on account of the shrooms.
- So, I think that the best thing for us to do is just - Wait, wait.
Shrooms? Okay, yeah.
That makes sense.
Oh, shit.
The broth.
You drugged us? No, I didn't.
Okay, yeah, it was an accident.
- They were meant for Ben.
- Oh, my God.
Do you have any idea how crazy you are? They were my mushrooms.
And you stole them to put them in your stupid soup.
Besides, you know, none of this would have even happened if he wouldn't have tricked me into falling in love with him.
- Oh, Misty, would you - Wait.
Stop! Do you hear that? Oh, God.
Oh, my God.
Okay.
All right.
Everyone stay calm.
How the fuck are we supposed to do that? Who who has the gun? Where's the gun? Natalie has it.
We saw her.
Shauna, the knife.
Lot, don't.
- Lottie, what are you doing? - Shh.
Yeah All I wanna do is zoom-a-zoom-zoom-zoom And a poom-poom, just shake ya rump All I wanna do is zoom-a-zoom-zoom-zoom And a poom-poom, just shake ya rump All I wanna do is zoom-a-zoom-zoom-zoom What if they know it was us? Look, I mean, it's it's it's fine.
Come on.
Just act normal.
I'm fucking choking here, dude.
I I've been in, like, a million conversations.
Why can't I think of anything to say? Check baby, check baby, one, two, three, four There he is.
Oh, hey.
Your Highness.
Wow.
Somebody's been working out.
I mean, I've seen your commercials, but these days, with all the filters and the facetunes and the whatnot, you never really know.
- Hey, Allie.
- Oh.
Hi, Randall.
Where's Shauna? I haven't seen her yet.
You know, she's running a little late.
This place looks really great, by the way.
Thank you.
I feel such a sense of responsibility, you know? Not just as class chair, but as a member of the team.
I don't know if you know this, but I was supposed to be on the plane that day.
Yeah.
Right.
That must be, uh, weird.
It is.
These reunions are such an important way to honor the unique bond we all share.
Our trauma bond.
And this is the big one.
Ten who cares? Twenty everyone is busy with kids, careers.
But 25 that's reunion pay dirt, baby.
Tonight is gonna be special.
Shauna is coming, isn't she? You both did RSVP.
Yeah.
Uh, yeah.
You know, she'll be here.
I am so, so sorry for your loss.
I mean, I'm just devastated.
She was like a mother to me.
Which, if you think about it, kind of makes us sisters.
I'm sorry.
Um, who are you again? Misty.
Misty Quigley.
From Sunnyview.
I was your mother's nurse.
Or, as I like to think of it, her guardian angel.
Of course.
Well, thank you for coming.
I'm sure Mom was lucky to have you.
Oh.
I was the lucky one.
Well, she was really there for me when I needed it.
Always smiling, always laughing.
Well, not literally, of course.
After the last stroke, she pretty much lost all control of her facial musculature.
But you could still really sense her inner joy.
Um, I'm sorry.
Are you confused? My mother was Gloria DeGenaro.
May she rest in peace.
But I don't need your practiced lines Are you okay? How is it possible that this is the most scared I've been all day? Right? Oh, my God! Oh, hey, girl.
Hey! It's been forever.
What have you been up to? - Tell me.
- Um, yeah.
You know, gardening, PTA, dismembering my lover's corpse.
Oh, okay.
Come on.
Wait up.
- Wow! - Wow.
I said I would come.
I made a deal, okay? All right.
Let's fucking do this.
You gotta keep 'em separated Like the latest fashion Like a spreading disease The kids are strapping on their way to the classroom Getting weapons with the greatest of ease The gangs stake their own campus locale And if they catch you slipping then it's all over, pal If one guy's colors and the others don't mix They're gonna bash it up, bash it up, bash it up, bash it up Hey! Man, you talking back to me? Take him out You gotta keep 'em separated Hey! Man, you disrespecting me Take him out You gotta keep 'em separated Hey, they don't pay no mind You showed up.
If you're under 18 you won't be doing - Any time - How you doing? - Good.
- I can't believe you're all actually here.
This is gonna be so much fun.
Okay, let's get a picture.
Who can take a picture? Muriel! Muriel, get over here.
- Come on, photo of the year.
- Oh, with me? - Nobody blink.
- Hey Come out and play Here, I can help you with that.
I already got the fire started.
Yeah, right.
Like we're gonna trust you around the food.
Look, I'm just trying to help.
Okay? So just Oh, my God, Misty, just get the fuck away! Shauna, don't.
It'll make you sick.
Hey.
Come on.
Talk to me.
Why? So you get to tell me how dumb I am? You're not dumb.
I think something really, really scary happened to you.
And you're trying to deal with it.
I get that, but, Van I saw something, Tai.
After it happened.
I don't think I was dead.
But I wasn't really alive, either.
I think I was, like in-between or something.
You were in shock.
- Your body was - No.
I know what I saw.
I don't know what it meant.
But I know I saw something.
Something was out there with us.
Okay, so you had a near-death experience.
And now you believe in, what? Ghosts? Tree demons? Wood sprites? Come on Don't do that.
I get that you're scared, too.
But don't act like you have any clue what's happening out here.
Because you don't.
Van.
You believe that Sporty Spice is the most underrated Spice Girl.
You believe that Scully is way too good for Mulder.
- You do not believe in whatever this is - Yeah, well, maybe I do.
And if that's gonna be a problem then just say it.
Okay? No.
It's it's not.
It's, it's okay.
We're okay, okay? I wish I could say I remember him better.
You two were a lot alike, actually.
Why? Because we both loved you? He killed himself.
He really killed himself.
I know.
Kev? Are you coming? I got to go.
But, uh take care of yourself.
Okay? I hope you find whatever it is you really need.
Hi, uh, can I have, uh, two cabernets, a beer, and a white wine spritzer, please? Sup, foxy lady? Uh, you know what? Could you make that, uh, four tequila shots, doubles? Hell yeah! We partying tonight, or what? Um Shit.
He told you, didn't he? When she woke up late in the morning light If you ever tell anyone what the two of you did, I will fucking end you.
I will gut you like a pig.
And if they find your body, which they won't, it won't matter, because you will be un-fucking-recognizable.
Understand? So you're mad, then? Yeah, Randy.
I'm mad.
And I can't be mad at Jeff right now, so looks like it's you.
Thank you so much.
I get that.
Good.
You're a good friend.
All that she wants Should we wait for Natalie and Travis? Uh, you know what? I'm pretty sure they've got some stuff to sort out, so they can eat when they get back.
Lottie, last night you said we wouldn't be hungry much longer.
How did you know? I just did.
Yeah, it's called getting lucky.
The bear probably just smelled us and came looking for food, okay? Probably had something wrong with him.
It didn't look sick.
Honestly, at this point, I don't even think I care.
Can we just eat? Wait.
Should we maybe say something? Like, like thanks or grace or whatever? Yeah.
Just make it quick.
Okay? Lot? Let's join hands.
I love myself Ooh, shooters! I've never done one of these before.
Good call.
I swear to God, if one more person tells me I've been in their thoughts and prayers - I will - I want to make a toast.
I forget myself To old friends.
I don't want Anybody else, when I think about you Can I have everyone's attention, please? - Boo! - Shut the fuck up, Doug.
You're a grown man.
WordDefinition.
net defines a "reunion" as "a union that is happening again.
" "A convention of friends, relatives, or associates after a period of separation.
" And, indeed, a graduating class will forever be united by their shared high school experience.
But as the Wiskayok High Class of '96 we are united by something even greater.
Together, we went through a tragedy, and tonight, together, I'm hopeful we can finally, truly heal.
But in order to move forward, we must first look back.
Who can say where For this gift from the wilderness, we give our thanks.
Only time And who can say Thank you.
If your love grows As your heart chose? Only time To the spirit of the bear, who sacrificed so that we could survive, we give our thanks.
Thank you.
And to the ancient gods of the sky and the dirt, we give our thanks.
Thank you.
You didn't say it.
Jackie didn't say it.
They were our classmates, our teachers, our friends, but they were more than that.
They were strong.
They were courageous.
Only time They were, and they remain, a true inspiration.
Where the day flows? Only time No, I did not thank the dirt for bringing us a brain-dead bear.
What is even happening right now? The fuck is wrong with you all? It's fine, you guys.
She doesn't have to Oh, shut up, Tai.
Don't pretend like you weren't a part of it.
What, we're we're we're just not gonna talk about it? We just howl at the moon now and have fucking orgies? And somehow I'm the one who did something wrong? - Whoa, wait, what? - Jackie, calm down.
Don't tell me to calm down! What were you gonna do to Travis last night, Shauna? Answer me.
I don't know.
I don't remember.
Bullshit.
You had a knife to his throat.
If we hadn't come, you would have killed him.
Just shut up! None of this would have happened if it wasn't for you.
If you hadn't Hadn't what? Huh? Stolen him? Wow.
The irony.
Shauna was fucking Jeff behind my back, you know that? Yeah.
That's who's really responsible for her little bundle of joy.
It was you.
You read my journal.
How could you? You were my best friend.
You you you don't even like him.
And how would you know? You're so obsessed with yourself, I'm surprised you're aware other people even exist.
You know you never even asked me if I wanted to go to Rutgers? You just assumed I'd go wherever you wanted.
You tell me what to wear, what to do, who to hook up with.
I don't even like soccer! But you just get everything you want.
All the time like it's nothing.
And the rest of us, we're just extras in the movie of your fucking life.
Oh, my God, you're such a cliché.
Oh, is the, is the sad little sidekick mad? Did I force you to live in my shadow, Shauna? It must be hard being this jealous all the time.
What? You're so fucking jealous of me, you can barely breathe.
Are you quoting Beaches at me right now? What? No.
I'm not jealous of you, Jackie.
I feel sorry for you.
Because you're weak.
And I think that deep down, you know it.
I'm sure everyone back home is so fucking sad to be losing their perfect little princess, but they'll never know how tragic and boring and insecure you really are.
Or how high school was the best your life was ever gonna get.
Fuck you.
That's it.
You know what? That's it.
That's it.
Get get out.
Go on, get out! No.
I can't be around you, I I can't even fucking look at you right now.
Well, that sounds like your problem.
So maybe you should leave.
Maybe you'd be better off, since we're all so crazy.
Okay, everybody just stop.
- Nobody is going outside.
- Stay out of it, Coach.
You know what? Fine.
Jackie, come on.
Don't go outside.
Don't pretend like this isn't what you wanted the entire fucking time.
I don't even know who you are anymore.
Or maybe you never did.
Now, traditionally, we'd end tonight with a dance from our class king and queen.
But while she isn't here with us, I know that this is what Jackie would have wanted.
Jeff.
Shauna.
Get up here! Oh, no.
No, no, no.
Yeah! Yeah! You want to make a break for it? Yeah! Come on, you two! Get your butts on the dance floor.
Dance, dance, dance! Come on! Here we go! There used to be A graying tower Alone on the sea Are you all right? Um yeah.
The light on the dark side of me I'm fine.
Love remained a drug So, uh did you ? Like, did they ? Is he ? Yes.
I took care of it.
But, um I think the less you know about it, the better.
Baby, I compare you to a kiss Right.
You know, I think we're gonna be all right.
The stranger it feels, yeah.
Well don't hold out on me.
How was the reunion? It was, uh, it was amazing.
Sorry I slept in so late.
I'm a little hungover, to be honest.
- Mm.
- We did shots.
- Sounds pretty wild.
- It was.
I mean, it was just so fun to be with old friends, you know? And everyone wanted to talk to us.
It really showed me how people want no, need to hear my story.
But I'm still strapped to a bed here, so I'm guessing there's a "but" coming.
I want to do this.
I really do.
But how do I know that the second I let you go, you're not gonna What, gonna go to the police? Misty, do you know what I do for a living? Stick your nose into other people's business? I'm a fixer.
I clean up messes for the rich and the powerful.
It's fucking disgusting work.
I'd say it was soul-crushing, if I remembered what it felt like to have one.
And honestly, the kind of money we're talking about here, even my little slice of it I have done a lot of things that I cannot forget or undo, but at least I'd be able to stop adding to the list.
So if you think this little stay here at the Caligula Inn is enough to make me rethink our partnership, you haven't gotten to know me at all.
Hey.
I'm glad you called.
Sorry I wasn't there last night.
I just didn't think that, um you know.
How are you? Well, I'm working on my concession speech, so I'm sorry, Tai.
Are you? Look, I'm calling to let you know that, uh, I'll be swinging by later tonight to pick up some things, some clothes, toys for Sammy.
Yeah, of course.
Uh, I won't be there.
I have to be with my staff for when they announce the results.
You don't want me to be there.
I just think it might be easier for Sammy.
Right.
Is he there? Can I talk to him? He's actually on a playdate with, uh, a kid named Elvis, if you can believe that.
Look, I'll call you tomorrow.
You can talk to him then, okay? Okay.
I love you, Simone.
I'll call you tomorrow.
I parked your car out front.
I even filled up your gas tank - and topped up your wiper fluid.
- Misty.
What? - Misty! - Okay, fine.
I threw them out, but it's a disgusting habit.
And do you have any idea how bad those things are for you? Yeah.
It's why I do it.
Come on, you know I'm just gonna buy more.
Save me a stop.
So, what's our next move? Dr.
Phil? Oprah? Should I get a, um, uh, a publicist? Eventually, yes.
Uh, first, I'm just gonna call a few contacts I have at the big lit agencies.
But you let me worry about all that, you know, earn my keep.
You just, for now, start thinking about who you want to play you in the movie.
Meryl Streep.
No, no, no.
No.
Scarlett Johansson.
Okay.
Or who's the one in that thing, about, um, those rich ladies that kill that guy? Fuck.
Javi? Javi! Javi! I, uh I can't, I can't find him.
Well, he he might be at the cabin.
No.
Something happened last night.
Then I'll help you look.
I don't want your help.
I know.
I don't want your fucking help, Nat.
I know.
Mm.
I'm so sorry.
I didn't want to.
I fucking love you, Natalie.
What the fuck? Fucking bitch.
This good boy was actually a very bad dog.
Oh.
- I think we should get a cat.
- Hmm? I think cats are underrated.
Mm.
Yeah.
Well, I hope this cat behaves itself.
It'll wind up in the chili pot.
- Weirdo.
- Hey.
What's up, Kokomo? What is happening right now? - Just - We're watching television.
Why don't you join us? I have trig homework.
And this is weird.
You can sit down for a while.
Your homework can wait.
Now come on.
Come on.
I was about to make popcorn.
And now turning to the state senate race, where results are expected momentarily in Taissa Turner's effort to unseat incumbent Phil Bathurst.
Come on.
Get out here.
It's almost time.
Okay.
leaving her supporters' hopes tonight for victory remote at best.
Shh.
Everybody, quiet down.
This is it.
Now, with numbers coming in from precincts throughout the 31st district, it's starting to look like this race was much closer than anyone anticipated.
Just go talk to her.
I didn't know commercials still existed.
Ouch.
You know, I'm in a commercial.
In local news, authorities are asking for assistance in finding a Hoboken artist who's gone missing.
Sheriff O'Conner says Adam Martin, 36, was last seen Monday.
Concerned family and friends said they have not heard from him in several days, prompting them to alert authorities about his disappearance.
Of course I burned it.
But, um, then I added a whole bunch of butter, so it should be okay.
Okay, kiddo, why don't you go up to your room and grab some toys? I'm gonna get the suitcase from the basement.
No matter what, just know that we ran a good race.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
It's official.
Wow.
In a stunning upset, Taissa Turner has defeated incumbent Phil Bathurst to become New Jersey's first Black woman elected to the state senate.
Turner! Turner! Turner! Turner! Turner! Turner! Turner! Turner! Hey.
This is stupid.
I'm sorry.
Okay? I 'm really sorry.
Come inside.
Please? Thanks.
I was freezing out there.
I'm so tired.
Here.
This will help.
Hot chocolate? How? Where did you find this? Does it matter? - Shauna - It's fine.
It's all gonna be fine.
I love you, Jackie.
We all love you, Jackie.
You're the best friend I've ever had.
You know that, right? I know.
It's not as bad as you thought.
Is it? So glad you're joining us.
We've been waiting for you.
No.
Oh, my God.
It snowed? Holy shit.
Jackie! No, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no! No! No, Jackie! Wake up! No! Jackie, wake up! No! No, Jackie, wake up.
No! No No! Jackie! No.
Get the fuck out! Get out! No! No.
Stop.
Hey, you've reached Natalie.
You know what to do.
Natalie, fucking call me, goddamn it.
What the hell have you gotten into? Look, I did what you asked.
I dug into Travis's bank account and found out who emptied it.
I think someone's following me.
Who the fuck is Lottie Matthews? Versez le sang, mes beaux amis.
And let the darkness set us free.
What did you need my help with? We need you to get rid of a body.
Nobody else knows about the blackmail? - Randy.
- Randy Walsh? He's my best friend, Shauna.
I had to turn to somebody.
- You lied to me.
- I made a mistake.
Well, apparently, so did I.
I need your help.
Somebody closed Travis's bank account, and I need to find out who.
Lottie's dreams and omens and whatever the fuck that is.
- What is it? - I think it will keep you safe.
My wife moved out.
I took a 15-year marriage, and set it on fire.
For what? We have dresses, we have booze.
- We can have a Moon Homecoming.
- A Doomcoming.
Has someone seen the mushrooms? Uh, yeah.
They're in the stew.
I think Misty poisoned me again.
I think she poisoned all of us.
- Misty, just stop! - Aah! I don't love you.
I love Paul! - Who's Paul? - He's my boyfriend.
Something's coming.
We won't be hungry much longer.
You took something that doesn't belong to you.
What? Hey! No.
Gloria? When? Last night.
Another stroke.
- And she was so young.
- She was 89.
I can't believe I didn't get to say goodbye to her.
Do you know if they'll be having a service? I was like a daughter to her.
Oh, that's okay, I'll just ask Kenny at the morgue.
He's always got the 4-1-1.
Anyways, I got to go.
Just came by to grab my Tupperware.
You ladies have fun.
- Ah.
- Here.
What, are you planning on taking home leftovers? Hmm.
I needed a cover story.
I got gloves, waste disposal bags, oxygenated bleach.
Why didn't we just go to the store? Because 12% of all killers are caught buying cleaning supplies.
Also, regular bleach leaves behind hemoglobin for the luminol tests.
This stuff is the good stuff.
Well, good to know, Misty.
Listen, before we go, I just want to go over the terms of our deal.
Oh.
What do you want, a blood oath from me? I said I would go, so I'm going.
Christ, I've been looking everywhere for you.
Are you all right? I Why wouldn't I be? Well, last night, I I'm fine.
No, a actually, I'm better than fine.
I finally got laid, so I'm fucking great.
Hmm? Look, I don't care about what happened with you and Jackie right now.
I just need to know that you're okay.
Travis, they had a fucking knife to your throat.
They were going to I don't know, but I know that I said I was fine, didn't I? I'm gonna go look for Javi.
He's not here? Well, do you want any help? Nope.
Well, aren't we a bunch of Gloomy Gusses.
Who died? No, but seriously.
Who is this guy? Misty? Really? This is your big brainstorm? Do you have a better idea? I think what you mean to say is, "Hi, Misty.
It's so great to see you after all this time.
Thanks for swinging by and helping us cover up a murder.
" Why does everyone keep using that word? It's not like I woke up this morning and thought, "Hmm.
What am I gonna do today? I know.
I'll find out my boyfriend is a creepy stalker and stab him to death.
" I'm going to prison.
I'm going to prison for the rest of my life.
No, you're not.
None of us are, as long you listen to me and do exactly what I say.
Okay? So, if you haven't already turned off your phones, I suggest you do that now.
Where's his? I I took it home, and I put it in my safe.
Okay.
As soon as we're done here, you're gonna go home, you're going to wipe it and destroy the SIM card.
All right? And then do the same thing to yours.
I didn't see any security cameras.
Did anybody neighbors see you come in here? I I don't think so.
Okay, great.
Then we're just destroying evidence.
Shauna, you're the best with a knife, clearly.
So you'll handle the body.
I mean, cut it up.
Oh, God.
Are you okay to do that? - Yeah.
- I'll help you.
So, then, it's just me and Tai on, uh, clean-up duty.
Oof, boy, he sure was a gusher, huh? Well, what are we waiting for, ladies? Let's suit up and get to work.
Thanks.
Do you still remember how to do that? It's just like riding a really gross, fucked-up bike.
So, after your boyfriend killed Travis, you didn't notice that he was acting weird? Natalie, stop it.
I was with him the day Travis died.
Okay? Well, he was working with somebody else.
That's so obvious.
I need to get my hands on his cell phone.
- I need to see his texts.
- Or maybe, it's just a coincidence.
And Travis did actually just kill himself.
All this time, you've been looking for some big conspiracy.
What if the truth is just that we're all fucked in the head from what happened to us, and you're searching for answers that don't exist? No.
That didn't occur to me.
Nat.
I know what it's like the numbness, the the paranoia.
Sometimes I look at the world around me, and it's like all the light has just gone out of it.
Maybe Travis just couldn't stand to live like that anymore.
Maybe you need to start trying to forgive him.
Ooh.
I just got the craziest case of déjà vu.
And here I thought the worst thing that was gonna happen to me this week was losing this election.
Well, I voted for you.
And I only registered so I could get jury duty.
When do they call the results? Tomorrow.
Oh, God.
Is that the ? The rest is, um, draining in the tub.
Okay, perfect.
So, when that's done, put it in a suitcase and bury it out at Hacklebarney Park.
I've got a shovel in my trunk, which you can borrow.
I do want it back.
And I took the liberty of packing up some of his clothes, some books and toiletries and stuff.
And I'll take this with me and get rid of it.
That way, if anyone comes looking for him, it just looks like he went on a trip.
And after that? I mean, what if an animal digs him up? What if a hiker's dog sniffs him out? Well, it won't matter.
I mean, torsos are useless.
Duh.
That's the whole point.
You only have to worry about the head and the hands.
So, what's the plan with those? Don't worry about it.
I'll handle that.
Hey.
I, uh, I boiled some drinking water, if you guys are as hungover as I am.
Has anyone seen Jackie? I have nothing to say to you.
To any of you.
I mean, what the fuck? Yeah, like you're so innocent.
Hey, I'm not the one who went completely fucking insane last night.
Right.
No, you were too busy screwing Travis.
Whoa, hey.
Look, I'm sure that we all said and did some stuff that we regret last night on account of the shrooms.
- So, I think that the best thing for us to do is just - Wait, wait.
Shrooms? Okay, yeah.
That makes sense.
Oh, shit.
The broth.
You drugged us? No, I didn't.
Okay, yeah, it was an accident.
- They were meant for Ben.
- Oh, my God.
Do you have any idea how crazy you are? They were my mushrooms.
And you stole them to put them in your stupid soup.
Besides, you know, none of this would have even happened if he wouldn't have tricked me into falling in love with him.
- Oh, Misty, would you - Wait.
Stop! Do you hear that? Oh, God.
Oh, my God.
Okay.
All right.
Everyone stay calm.
How the fuck are we supposed to do that? Who who has the gun? Where's the gun? Natalie has it.
We saw her.
Shauna, the knife.
Lot, don't.
- Lottie, what are you doing? - Shh.
Yeah All I wanna do is zoom-a-zoom-zoom-zoom And a poom-poom, just shake ya rump All I wanna do is zoom-a-zoom-zoom-zoom And a poom-poom, just shake ya rump All I wanna do is zoom-a-zoom-zoom-zoom What if they know it was us? Look, I mean, it's it's it's fine.
Come on.
Just act normal.
I'm fucking choking here, dude.
I I've been in, like, a million conversations.
Why can't I think of anything to say? Check baby, check baby, one, two, three, four There he is.
Oh, hey.
Your Highness.
Wow.
Somebody's been working out.
I mean, I've seen your commercials, but these days, with all the filters and the facetunes and the whatnot, you never really know.
- Hey, Allie.
- Oh.
Hi, Randall.
Where's Shauna? I haven't seen her yet.
You know, she's running a little late.
This place looks really great, by the way.
Thank you.
I feel such a sense of responsibility, you know? Not just as class chair, but as a member of the team.
I don't know if you know this, but I was supposed to be on the plane that day.
Yeah.
Right.
That must be, uh, weird.
It is.
These reunions are such an important way to honor the unique bond we all share.
Our trauma bond.
And this is the big one.
Ten who cares? Twenty everyone is busy with kids, careers.
But 25 that's reunion pay dirt, baby.
Tonight is gonna be special.
Shauna is coming, isn't she? You both did RSVP.
Yeah.
Uh, yeah.
You know, she'll be here.
I am so, so sorry for your loss.
I mean, I'm just devastated.
She was like a mother to me.
Which, if you think about it, kind of makes us sisters.
I'm sorry.
Um, who are you again? Misty.
Misty Quigley.
From Sunnyview.
I was your mother's nurse.
Or, as I like to think of it, her guardian angel.
Of course.
Well, thank you for coming.
I'm sure Mom was lucky to have you.
Oh.
I was the lucky one.
Well, she was really there for me when I needed it.
Always smiling, always laughing.
Well, not literally, of course.
After the last stroke, she pretty much lost all control of her facial musculature.
But you could still really sense her inner joy.
Um, I'm sorry.
Are you confused? My mother was Gloria DeGenaro.
May she rest in peace.
But I don't need your practiced lines Are you okay? How is it possible that this is the most scared I've been all day? Right? Oh, my God! Oh, hey, girl.
Hey! It's been forever.
What have you been up to? - Tell me.
- Um, yeah.
You know, gardening, PTA, dismembering my lover's corpse.
Oh, okay.
Come on.
Wait up.
- Wow! - Wow.
I said I would come.
I made a deal, okay? All right.
Let's fucking do this.
You gotta keep 'em separated Like the latest fashion Like a spreading disease The kids are strapping on their way to the classroom Getting weapons with the greatest of ease The gangs stake their own campus locale And if they catch you slipping then it's all over, pal If one guy's colors and the others don't mix They're gonna bash it up, bash it up, bash it up, bash it up Hey! Man, you talking back to me? Take him out You gotta keep 'em separated Hey! Man, you disrespecting me Take him out You gotta keep 'em separated Hey, they don't pay no mind You showed up.
If you're under 18 you won't be doing - Any time - How you doing? - Good.
- I can't believe you're all actually here.
This is gonna be so much fun.
Okay, let's get a picture.
Who can take a picture? Muriel! Muriel, get over here.
- Come on, photo of the year.
- Oh, with me? - Nobody blink.
- Hey Come out and play Here, I can help you with that.
I already got the fire started.
Yeah, right.
Like we're gonna trust you around the food.
Look, I'm just trying to help.
Okay? So just Oh, my God, Misty, just get the fuck away! Shauna, don't.
It'll make you sick.
Hey.
Come on.
Talk to me.
Why? So you get to tell me how dumb I am? You're not dumb.
I think something really, really scary happened to you.
And you're trying to deal with it.
I get that, but, Van I saw something, Tai.
After it happened.
I don't think I was dead.
But I wasn't really alive, either.
I think I was, like in-between or something.
You were in shock.
- Your body was - No.
I know what I saw.
I don't know what it meant.
But I know I saw something.
Something was out there with us.
Okay, so you had a near-death experience.
And now you believe in, what? Ghosts? Tree demons? Wood sprites? Come on Don't do that.
I get that you're scared, too.
But don't act like you have any clue what's happening out here.
Because you don't.
Van.
You believe that Sporty Spice is the most underrated Spice Girl.
You believe that Scully is way too good for Mulder.
- You do not believe in whatever this is - Yeah, well, maybe I do.
And if that's gonna be a problem then just say it.
Okay? No.
It's it's not.
It's, it's okay.
We're okay, okay? I wish I could say I remember him better.
You two were a lot alike, actually.
Why? Because we both loved you? He killed himself.
He really killed himself.
I know.
Kev? Are you coming? I got to go.
But, uh take care of yourself.
Okay? I hope you find whatever it is you really need.
Hi, uh, can I have, uh, two cabernets, a beer, and a white wine spritzer, please? Sup, foxy lady? Uh, you know what? Could you make that, uh, four tequila shots, doubles? Hell yeah! We partying tonight, or what? Um Shit.
He told you, didn't he? When she woke up late in the morning light If you ever tell anyone what the two of you did, I will fucking end you.
I will gut you like a pig.
And if they find your body, which they won't, it won't matter, because you will be un-fucking-recognizable.
Understand? So you're mad, then? Yeah, Randy.
I'm mad.
And I can't be mad at Jeff right now, so looks like it's you.
Thank you so much.
I get that.
Good.
You're a good friend.
All that she wants Should we wait for Natalie and Travis? Uh, you know what? I'm pretty sure they've got some stuff to sort out, so they can eat when they get back.
Lottie, last night you said we wouldn't be hungry much longer.
How did you know? I just did.
Yeah, it's called getting lucky.
The bear probably just smelled us and came looking for food, okay? Probably had something wrong with him.
It didn't look sick.
Honestly, at this point, I don't even think I care.
Can we just eat? Wait.
Should we maybe say something? Like, like thanks or grace or whatever? Yeah.
Just make it quick.
Okay? Lot? Let's join hands.
I love myself Ooh, shooters! I've never done one of these before.
Good call.
I swear to God, if one more person tells me I've been in their thoughts and prayers - I will - I want to make a toast.
I forget myself To old friends.
I don't want Anybody else, when I think about you Can I have everyone's attention, please? - Boo! - Shut the fuck up, Doug.
You're a grown man.
WordDefinition.
net defines a "reunion" as "a union that is happening again.
" "A convention of friends, relatives, or associates after a period of separation.
" And, indeed, a graduating class will forever be united by their shared high school experience.
But as the Wiskayok High Class of '96 we are united by something even greater.
Together, we went through a tragedy, and tonight, together, I'm hopeful we can finally, truly heal.
But in order to move forward, we must first look back.
Who can say where For this gift from the wilderness, we give our thanks.
Only time And who can say Thank you.
If your love grows As your heart chose? Only time To the spirit of the bear, who sacrificed so that we could survive, we give our thanks.
Thank you.
And to the ancient gods of the sky and the dirt, we give our thanks.
Thank you.
You didn't say it.
Jackie didn't say it.
They were our classmates, our teachers, our friends, but they were more than that.
They were strong.
They were courageous.
Only time They were, and they remain, a true inspiration.
Where the day flows? Only time No, I did not thank the dirt for bringing us a brain-dead bear.
What is even happening right now? The fuck is wrong with you all? It's fine, you guys.
She doesn't have to Oh, shut up, Tai.
Don't pretend like you weren't a part of it.
What, we're we're we're just not gonna talk about it? We just howl at the moon now and have fucking orgies? And somehow I'm the one who did something wrong? - Whoa, wait, what? - Jackie, calm down.
Don't tell me to calm down! What were you gonna do to Travis last night, Shauna? Answer me.
I don't know.
I don't remember.
Bullshit.
You had a knife to his throat.
If we hadn't come, you would have killed him.
Just shut up! None of this would have happened if it wasn't for you.
If you hadn't Hadn't what? Huh? Stolen him? Wow.
The irony.
Shauna was fucking Jeff behind my back, you know that? Yeah.
That's who's really responsible for her little bundle of joy.
It was you.
You read my journal.
How could you? You were my best friend.
You you you don't even like him.
And how would you know? You're so obsessed with yourself, I'm surprised you're aware other people even exist.
You know you never even asked me if I wanted to go to Rutgers? You just assumed I'd go wherever you wanted.
You tell me what to wear, what to do, who to hook up with.
I don't even like soccer! But you just get everything you want.
All the time like it's nothing.
And the rest of us, we're just extras in the movie of your fucking life.
Oh, my God, you're such a cliché.
Oh, is the, is the sad little sidekick mad? Did I force you to live in my shadow, Shauna? It must be hard being this jealous all the time.
What? You're so fucking jealous of me, you can barely breathe.
Are you quoting Beaches at me right now? What? No.
I'm not jealous of you, Jackie.
I feel sorry for you.
Because you're weak.
And I think that deep down, you know it.
I'm sure everyone back home is so fucking sad to be losing their perfect little princess, but they'll never know how tragic and boring and insecure you really are.
Or how high school was the best your life was ever gonna get.
Fuck you.
That's it.
You know what? That's it.
That's it.
Get get out.
Go on, get out! No.
I can't be around you, I I can't even fucking look at you right now.
Well, that sounds like your problem.
So maybe you should leave.
Maybe you'd be better off, since we're all so crazy.
Okay, everybody just stop.
- Nobody is going outside.
- Stay out of it, Coach.
You know what? Fine.
Jackie, come on.
Don't go outside.
Don't pretend like this isn't what you wanted the entire fucking time.
I don't even know who you are anymore.
Or maybe you never did.
Now, traditionally, we'd end tonight with a dance from our class king and queen.
But while she isn't here with us, I know that this is what Jackie would have wanted.
Jeff.
Shauna.
Get up here! Oh, no.
No, no, no.
Yeah! Yeah! You want to make a break for it? Yeah! Come on, you two! Get your butts on the dance floor.
Dance, dance, dance! Come on! Here we go! There used to be A graying tower Alone on the sea Are you all right? Um yeah.
The light on the dark side of me I'm fine.
Love remained a drug So, uh did you ? Like, did they ? Is he ? Yes.
I took care of it.
But, um I think the less you know about it, the better.
Baby, I compare you to a kiss Right.
You know, I think we're gonna be all right.
The stranger it feels, yeah.
Well don't hold out on me.
How was the reunion? It was, uh, it was amazing.
Sorry I slept in so late.
I'm a little hungover, to be honest.
- Mm.
- We did shots.
- Sounds pretty wild.
- It was.
I mean, it was just so fun to be with old friends, you know? And everyone wanted to talk to us.
It really showed me how people want no, need to hear my story.
But I'm still strapped to a bed here, so I'm guessing there's a "but" coming.
I want to do this.
I really do.
But how do I know that the second I let you go, you're not gonna What, gonna go to the police? Misty, do you know what I do for a living? Stick your nose into other people's business? I'm a fixer.
I clean up messes for the rich and the powerful.
It's fucking disgusting work.
I'd say it was soul-crushing, if I remembered what it felt like to have one.
And honestly, the kind of money we're talking about here, even my little slice of it I have done a lot of things that I cannot forget or undo, but at least I'd be able to stop adding to the list.
So if you think this little stay here at the Caligula Inn is enough to make me rethink our partnership, you haven't gotten to know me at all.
Hey.
I'm glad you called.
Sorry I wasn't there last night.
I just didn't think that, um you know.
How are you? Well, I'm working on my concession speech, so I'm sorry, Tai.
Are you? Look, I'm calling to let you know that, uh, I'll be swinging by later tonight to pick up some things, some clothes, toys for Sammy.
Yeah, of course.
Uh, I won't be there.
I have to be with my staff for when they announce the results.
You don't want me to be there.
I just think it might be easier for Sammy.
Right.
Is he there? Can I talk to him? He's actually on a playdate with, uh, a kid named Elvis, if you can believe that.
Look, I'll call you tomorrow.
You can talk to him then, okay? Okay.
I love you, Simone.
I'll call you tomorrow.
I parked your car out front.
I even filled up your gas tank - and topped up your wiper fluid.
- Misty.
What? - Misty! - Okay, fine.
I threw them out, but it's a disgusting habit.
And do you have any idea how bad those things are for you? Yeah.
It's why I do it.
Come on, you know I'm just gonna buy more.
Save me a stop.
So, what's our next move? Dr.
Phil? Oprah? Should I get a, um, uh, a publicist? Eventually, yes.
Uh, first, I'm just gonna call a few contacts I have at the big lit agencies.
But you let me worry about all that, you know, earn my keep.
You just, for now, start thinking about who you want to play you in the movie.
Meryl Streep.
No, no, no.
No.
Scarlett Johansson.
Okay.
Or who's the one in that thing, about, um, those rich ladies that kill that guy? Fuck.
Javi? Javi! Javi! I, uh I can't, I can't find him.
Well, he he might be at the cabin.
No.
Something happened last night.
Then I'll help you look.
I don't want your help.
I know.
I don't want your fucking help, Nat.
I know.
Mm.
I'm so sorry.
I didn't want to.
I fucking love you, Natalie.
What the fuck? Fucking bitch.
This good boy was actually a very bad dog.
Oh.
- I think we should get a cat.
- Hmm? I think cats are underrated.
Mm.
Yeah.
Well, I hope this cat behaves itself.
It'll wind up in the chili pot.
- Weirdo.
- Hey.
What's up, Kokomo? What is happening right now? - Just - We're watching television.
Why don't you join us? I have trig homework.
And this is weird.
You can sit down for a while.
Your homework can wait.
Now come on.
Come on.
I was about to make popcorn.
And now turning to the state senate race, where results are expected momentarily in Taissa Turner's effort to unseat incumbent Phil Bathurst.
Come on.
Get out here.
It's almost time.
Okay.
leaving her supporters' hopes tonight for victory remote at best.
Shh.
Everybody, quiet down.
This is it.
Now, with numbers coming in from precincts throughout the 31st district, it's starting to look like this race was much closer than anyone anticipated.
Just go talk to her.
I didn't know commercials still existed.
Ouch.
You know, I'm in a commercial.
In local news, authorities are asking for assistance in finding a Hoboken artist who's gone missing.
Sheriff O'Conner says Adam Martin, 36, was last seen Monday.
Concerned family and friends said they have not heard from him in several days, prompting them to alert authorities about his disappearance.
Of course I burned it.
But, um, then I added a whole bunch of butter, so it should be okay.
Okay, kiddo, why don't you go up to your room and grab some toys? I'm gonna get the suitcase from the basement.
No matter what, just know that we ran a good race.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
It's official.
Wow.
In a stunning upset, Taissa Turner has defeated incumbent Phil Bathurst to become New Jersey's first Black woman elected to the state senate.
Turner! Turner! Turner! Turner! Turner! Turner! Turner! Turner! Hey.
This is stupid.
I'm sorry.
Okay? I 'm really sorry.
Come inside.
Please? Thanks.
I was freezing out there.
I'm so tired.
Here.
This will help.
Hot chocolate? How? Where did you find this? Does it matter? - Shauna - It's fine.
It's all gonna be fine.
I love you, Jackie.
We all love you, Jackie.
You're the best friend I've ever had.
You know that, right? I know.
It's not as bad as you thought.
Is it? So glad you're joining us.
We've been waiting for you.
No.
Oh, my God.
It snowed? Holy shit.
Jackie! No, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no! No! No, Jackie! Wake up! No! Jackie, wake up! No! No, Jackie, wake up.
No! No No! Jackie! No.
Get the fuck out! Get out! No! No.
Stop.
Hey, you've reached Natalie.
You know what to do.
Natalie, fucking call me, goddamn it.
What the hell have you gotten into? Look, I did what you asked.
I dug into Travis's bank account and found out who emptied it.
I think someone's following me.
Who the fuck is Lottie Matthews? Versez le sang, mes beaux amis.
And let the darkness set us free.
