One of Us Is Lying (2021) s02e03 Episode Script

Simon Says Let's Get Personal

1
[UPBEAT LATIN POP MUSIC]

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

- [WHISTLES]
- The job's easy enough.
Might not be as lucrative
as selling drugs,
but at least you won't
get arrested, huh?
Right.
Unless those murder charges come back.
Which they won't.
Because Jake did it.
I remember when you thought I did it.
Whatever, TJ.
Table ten could use some water.
Why don't you go take
care of that me, huh?
So that's why we're here? Stalking Nate?
No. You wanna know why we're here?
Because as soon as his shift is over,
we're gonna go out to your boat
and clean out the freezer.
Are you insane?
The Riordans put out a cash reward,
Addy's outburst drew a
lot of unwanted attention,
and Wheeler has the watch, okay?
It's only a matter of time
before the police know Jake
[WHISPERING] Isn't in Mexico.
Bronwyn, I know that you like to think
that you're smarter than everyone,
but maybe take a look around.
There's people everywhere.
There's bars, there's
clubs, there's restaurants.
People are down on the promenade,
people are on the other boats.
Okay, at night?
Especially at night.
[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]
Plus this asshole.
[WHISPERING] We have to say something.
- No. Be cool.
- Yes, we do.
You're Jake's brother, right?
We can save time and cut the bullshit.
I know you're friends with Addy.
So I assume you knew
she was gonna pull that little
stunt at Vanessa's rally.
We don't know anything
about anything, really.
Mm. Let me fill you in.
My family's been through enough.
You're either with us
or you're against us,
and you made your choice.
So I just hope you're ready
to live with the consequences.

Coach Kilton, please
report to the AV lab.
[LAUGHS] Your reactions from the Tom
Prestin interview are so positive.
There's GIFs. Look, you're a GIF.
Yeah, but there's also comments
about me wearing the watch.
Only a few.
The watch story is getting
buried by Addy's freakout.
Really?
Yeah. She's a GIF, too.
Though not the kind I
wanna tell her about.
Damn.
Um, Coop?
- Coop. [CHUCKLES]
- Yeah?
Why didn't you tell me
that it was Jake's watch?
Oh, um
I guess I thought that you
might think it was weird.
- Well, it's kind
- Like
I know I'm not supposed to miss Jake,
because of what he did, but
Jake was my friend, okay?
It's it's almost like there are
two versions of him in my mind.
I don't think that's weird.
I know exactly what you mean.
Not to objectify you, but
you look really hot today.
- [LAUGHS] Don't be weird.
- Weird?
Would it be weird if
I kissed you right now?
So that's a yes?
It's just like, if
people see you with me,
- then they're gonna think
- What?
That I'm massively into you?
Good.
Oh, wow.
Okay, what do you think
Simon would hate more?
That you're, like, besties
with the people he despised?
Or you're hooking up with
the girl that he liked?
- [SLAMS LOCKER]
- Wow.
Just a little food for thought.
[TENSE MUSIC]
[PHONES CHIMING]

So you guys got different messages?
"Simon Says skip your
math midterm today."
"Kiss your tutor at lunch tomorrow."
And the rest of us got nothing.
- Right.
- Guys, it doesn't make sense.
Simon Says knows what we did.
Why would they want us to kiss someone?
They want you to kiss someone.
Look, I know it may seem random, right?
But think about the watch.
One second I'm wearing
it to school, no big deal.
Next thing I know, the cops have it.
- Nothing's random.
- No.
They're getting personal.
Trying to hit us where it hurts most.
By making you skip a math test?
Midterm.
And make Nate kiss Fiona?
I mean, is that really
gonna torture you?
Maybe this one's aimed at Bronwyn, too.
Why would I care?
I think this kind of petty
torture screams Vanessa.
Guys, what about Cole?
But why would he care
if I skip a midterm,
or who Nate kisses?
If both of these are aimed
at Bronwyn, what if it's Evan?
[CHUCKLES] No, no.
He's the least dangerous
person I've ever met.
Well, he is nerdy enough to consider
skipping a math test torture.
Whoever it is, they'll
be watching, right?
Evan is in my calculus class,
so I guess he would see if I skip.
Okay.
So we see if Evan's in
the cafeteria tomorrow
watching for Nate to
kiss Fiona.
So we're actually doing these?

Looks like it.

You coming?
Um
no, I'm not.
Are you sure you're okay with this?
We don't have a choice,
and my Yale application's
already in, so
No, no, I meant with mine.
Oh, um Well, it's not optional, so
And we're not together, right?
[TENDER MUSIC]
So you can kiss who you want.
Right.
Yeah, we're not.
Yeah.

[SIGHS]
[BELL RINGS]
[TENSE MUSIC]

Do you really think
Evan could be Simon Says?
I mean, he has motive
to hurt Bronwyn and Nate
and he's really smart, so
Yeah, but what about hurting us?
Well, we didn't get asks.
Maybe they're still coming.
Okay. Don't love that take.
But I guess our lives
can't really get much worse.
Um, your life has been
pretty great lately.
In some ways.
In the "non-blackmail, non-murder" ways?
[CHUCKLES] Yes.
And, you know,
in the Maeve ways.
Yeah.
I don't really see what
she sees in me, but
Are you kidding?
Janae, do you need a list?
'Cause I can give you a list.
- Please don't.
- Okay, well, now I have to.
First, you are the most
take-no-bullshit person
I have ever met, which
is incredibly sexy.
Second, you have this
weird dry sense of humor.
And maybe I'm not supposed
to say this, because feminism,
but you are so pretty
- and I really feel like
- Okay, you
stop.
Sorry.
Should I have not have said that?
No.
Or
I don't know.
"Pretty" just feels
weird.
But you are. You're so pretty, Janae.
Just feels really gendered.
What does that mean, for you?
[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]

It means that sometimes
I feel like a girl
and sometimes I don't.
And then sometimes I feel like
a boy and sometimes I don't.
And then sometimes I wish that gender
didn't exist.

You know?
- Yeah, totally.
- [BOTH CHUCKLE SOFTLY]

That makes sense for you.

Really?
Yeah.
[SQUEALS LIGHTLY] I can't
believe I'm saying this
out loud to Addy Prentiss.
- Hey!
- And it's going well.
[LAUGHS] It's going so well.
But what about Maeve?
Yeah, I haven't told her,
but I'm gonna tell her.
Just not yet.
- [PHONE CHIMES]
- Are you sure? 'Cause
Mm-hmm.
Oh, my God, Vanessa's going live.
We don't have to watch this.
We can keep talking about
Oh, about me? Absolutely not.
- No, thank you.
- [SIGHS]
Oh, God.
Today, I am here with a guest
who's going to change everything
you thought you knew about this case.
- What is she doing?
- Army, meet Giselle.
- Thanks, Vanessa.
- Oh, no, thank you, girl,
for coming forward.
Why don't you tell
everyone about yourself?
Well, I'm a senior, like you, from Slo,
and I guess I'm here
because I'm pissed off.
Mmm, girl, say more.
I saw your Justice for Jake rally
and what Addy said about Jake
Mmm, yeah, that mess.
That pissed a lot of people off.
I'm so sick of hearing
people talk about Jake
like he was this evil mastermind.
That's not the person I knew.
And how did you know Jake?
We met over the summer in Greece,
and we fell in love.
- [DRAMATIC MUSICAL STING]
- Addy?
But Jake was still with Addy?
Yes, he wanted to end things with Addy
but he was scared of
her and her new friends,
scared of what they were capable of.
And then he disappeared.
The police say he's in Mexico.
Do you believe that?
No, he wouldn't just vanish on
me like this without telling me.
I'm afraid the worst has happened
and that's why I'm here.
To help you find the truth.
And we will find the truth, together.
And we will get our #JusticeForJake.
Thank you, Giselle.
- Thanks.
- [PHONE CHIMES]
I knew I forgot to tell you something.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
Oops.

The police say he's in Mexico.
Do you believe that?
No, he wouldn't just vanish on me
like this without telling me.
Oh, yeah.
I'm afraid the worst has happened.
Everyone definitely thinks I'm dead.
Pretty soon, they're
gonna wonder who killed me.
- To help you find the truth.
- Gosh.
Who would they look at
first? [CLICKS TONGUE]
And we will find the truth.
Addy, you need to stop watching it.
[SIGHS]
Besides, what do we really
know about this chick, anyway?
She could be making it all
up, looking for her 15 minutes.
Eh, she's not making it up.
Just look at her.
She could give me
everything you couldn't.
No wonder he cheated.
Look at her.
That sounds like Jake talking.
Not you.
You are every bit as
hot when you wanna be.
I know this playbook all too well, baby.
Shitty men make
themselves feel less shitty
by shitting on amazing women.
Their voices get in your head.
[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]
How do I not hear that voice?
Look, sometimes you can't
block it out completely,
but you can make your voice louder.
And I know you can be, like
loud as hell. [CHUCKLES]
Plus, if what she's saying is true,
then you're not the cheater.
If Jake cheated first,
you didn't do anything wrong.
Hmm.
Yeah.
Yeah, I like that take.

[SIGHS]
[PHONE CHIMES]

[DARK MUSIC]

[INHALES DEEPLY]

What the hell?
Coop. Hey.
- Hey.
- Have you seen Addy?
Sadly, I doubt she'll come to school.
She'll wanna avoid the attention.
Or maybe not.
[SALLY SHAPIRO'S "JACKIE
JUNIOR (JUNIOR BOYS REMIX)"]

Whoa.
[THUMPING POP MUSIC]
Oh, oh, oh ♪

Jackie, Jackie ♪
I still wait by the phone ♪
Oh, Jackie, Jackie ♪
I don't wanna be alone ♪
So come along with me ♪
Okay, this is a choice.
And not a good one.
It looks like she's saying Jake's dead.

It was a Simon Says ask.
Obviously not my idea.

- Oh, my God.
- Move along.
The worst part is that everyone's
just gonna think I'm
upset about Giselle.
And you're not?
I mean, kind of.
But also it's good news.
'Cause if it's true and
Jake did cheat on me,
then TJ and I didn't
really do anything wrong.
That is an interesting reframe.
I just need to talk to her,
find out when it happened.
Wait, Addy, hold on.
Does any of this make sense?
Yeah. Because if Jake cheated first,
- then I'm in the clear.
- No, no.
I mean about Giselle.
She shows up here, she
says she's Jake's true love,
and that she thinks he's dead.
What if Simon Says put her up to this?
If the goal was to torture us
Giselle could be part of the plan.
Even more reason I need to talk to her.
We need to find out if she's legit.

Vanessa, I need you to
introduce me to Giselle.
I have to find out if she's for real.
Okay, Addy, I'm sorry Jake cheated,
but you're just gonna have to deal.
Just give me her number or
tell me where I can find her.
Why? So you can stalk her?
Please?
We used to be friends.
What do I get if I introduce you?
What do you get?
[TENSE MUSIC]
How's this?
You introduce us,
and I won't fucking kill you.
Wow.
You really are psycho.
But at least you give me great material.
So, yeah, sure.
I'll text you!

Are you sure you wanna be here for this?
Yes, I'm fine.
Seriously.
It's not like it has anything to do with
what's going on with me and Nate.
Right. Which is?
Not the point.
We should really be
looking for Simon Says.
Which we still think is Evan?
Yeah.
Is this like a kink of his?
Did Evan have a thing
for Jackie Kennedy?
Is that who I am?
Addy, yes.
Has anyone actually seen Evan?
- Oh, yeah.
- What?

- That's weird.
- That's very weird.
What if they're working together?

Evanessa.
Huh. He's the brains,
and she's the bitch.
Shh.

Nate. Hey.
Just go with me on this.
What?

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
Watch your back, Nate. She's crazy!
[ALT ROCK MUSIC]
Nate, is this some kind of joke?
[DEAP VALLY AND JENNYLEE'S "LOOK AWAY"]
- Why would you
- I'm sorry.

When she says when
she says it's okay ♪
This is heart, this is
heart this is heartache ♪

Look away, look away,
look away, look away ♪
Oh, my God!
[TENSE MUSIC]
Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING]

Okay, but what was weirder?
Nate kissing Fiona or
Vanessa kissing Evan?
Neither.
Both.
I don't know.
Yep, those are all the possible answers.
You're definitely fine.
Maybe I was wrong about
Evan the whole time
'cause he's definitely not the person
I thought he was if
he's hooking up with her.
I've always been better
than him at debate,
so I am gonna trip him up,
get him to confess to something.
What, that he's Simon Says
or that he's hooking up with Vanessa?
Well, it's the same thing, isn't it?
Simon Says I need to post
to all of my followers
that I got a text from Jake.
That he's in Mexico and
he doesn't wanna be found.
Whoa, what?
If I do this, the cops and Jake's
family is gonna want to proof.
I've got potential sponsors keeping tabs
on my social media, and something
Something like this
could ruin everything.
- Okay, we'll figure it out.
- "Figure it out"? How?
This is my life. This
is my family's future.
- It's not some stupid math test.
- Okay,
it was a midterm and I can't retake it.
Are you being serious?
- School is my sport!
- Okay.
I feel like you're not really
reading the room here, um
What if I sent you a text
so that you have something
to show when people ask?
I could use a VPN and make it
look like it came from Mexico.
- Is that something you can do?
- Mm-hmm.
[SIGHS] Okay.
- Thank you.
- [BELL RINGS]

Hey.
Hey.
- You okay?
- Fine.
We talked about this.
You told me to go through with the kiss.
Yeah, and you, like, really kissed her.
Went above and beyond. Good job.
I don't know what you
want from me, Rojas.
Figure it out, Macauley.
Here's a debate topic for you:
is torture ever justified?
What?
Today's topic is whether climate change
is the greatest threat
facing humanity today.
It is. Debate over. Now
let's talk about mine.
Is torture ever justified?
Yes or no?
That's not really how
debate works, Bronwyn.
But if you're at all confused about it,
maybe you shouldn't join
us for regionals next month.
Are you enjoying this?
Is this what you get off on?
Seeing you spiral? Not exactly.
Or is it for the attention?
[LAUGHS]
Because if there's one
thing you know about me,
and you don't,
it's I desperately need to
be the center of attention.
Yeah, maybe not you,
but your girlfriend certainly does.
- My what?
- Yeah, I saw you
making out with Vanessa at lunchtime.
[WHISPERING] Keep your voice down!
Where were you on Halloween night?
Of course you don't remember.

I was at the Fright Night
movie marathon at the Ritz,
the one that I'd bought us tickets to,
when we were dating.
I don't know who you
think I am, Bronwyn,
but I finally see you
for who you really are,
and it sucks.

Hey, G. Um, so this is Addy.
If you have a confession,
take it to the police.
- [LAUGHS]
- I didn't hurt him.
Then you drove him out of town.
He wouldn't just disappear on
me like this without a word.
Does that sound like Jake?
Running scared of me, of all people?
Can we have a few minutes to talk?
Please?
We're good, Vanessa.
Okay.
[POP MUSIC PLAYING ON STEREO]
I think Evan's telling
the truth about Halloween.
The screening was at midnight in L.A.,
so he couldn't have
made it there and back
in time to be in the woods.
Great, so we're back to square one.
[SIGHS]
Maybe Addy can find out Giselle's lying.
Maybe she is a Simon Says plant.

God.
I don't know how she can do this
and I couldn't even sit
through Nate kissing Fiona
for his stupid Simon Says ask.
Oh, my God.
She is human.
Ha ha.
Seriously, it would've
messed with anyone.
Right? I thought he was
actually gonna, I don't know,
give her, like, a peck.
I don't think Nate Macauley
knows what a peck is.
[CHUCKLES LIGHTLY]
I should have seen it
coming though because
I know I was never
gonna be enough for him.
I'm sorry, what?
Bronwyn Rojas thinks that
Nate Macauley is too good?
- Oh, my God! I can't!
- [LAUGHS]
So, what do you want?
I just want to know
what really happened.
You think I'm lying?
Do I have to tell you about
the scar on his inner thigh,
how he sounds when he comes?
I don't owe you anything.
Giselle, I just
I just want to know when it started.
When he was with you, he was
sending me these pictures.
I feel so stupid, I just
need to stop torturing myself.
I just need you to
tell me the full truth.
I took this one.
[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]
I loved that photo.
- He looks so
- Goofy.
Yeah. Exactly.

It was the second day of the trip.
Athens.

I couldn't stop looking at him.
And he looked up and saw me,
and it was lightning.
Two days?
Weeks before me and TJ.
I didn't plan it, okay?
Even after we got back to California
and things were still complicated
it felt worth it.
I told you what you wanted to know.
You tell me what I wanna know.

Is he dead?
[DRAMATIC MUSICAL STING]

You know Jake.
If he wants something, he gets it.
If he wanted to disappear,
make sure no one can find him,
he could.
Thanks, Giselle.
She's nothing like me.
But maybe Jake's nothing
like I thought he was either,
so it makes sense.
You really think she's
telling the truth?
Simon Says is good.
She could be part of the set up.
No.
No, she said stuff
that you would only know
if you really knew Jake, so
- Oh, ew!
- [CHUCKLES]
I'm so sorry. That
must've been so shitty.
It was.
Also, it wasn't.
I know this isn't the
best thing to admit, but
there's always been this
small part of me that thought
maybe this is all my fault.
I thought I'd cheated on Jake
and it turned then into this monster.
And he took it out on all of us.
And Simon.
That's fucked up.
And you know it's not true.
No, I know. Logically.

It's hard to shake
the feeling sometimes.

Jake really fucked me up.

It's taken me a long time
to be able to say that.

I'm okay.
- [PHONES CHIMING]
- Oh, fuck.
Cooper's going live.
Hey, guys.
Coop here.
Look, I know I'm usually on
here talking about workouts
and fastballs and, I don't know,
my pick to win the World Series, but
today I wanna talk about something else.
I can't believe he's
actually doing this.

I received a text from
Jake Riordan today.
And he informed that he was in Mexico
and that he doesn't wanna be found.
But I want his family and the
police to know he's out there.
If anybody has heard anything from him,
or anybody has seen him
or knows any information,
please, please come forward.
This is so fucked up.
Be a good teammate,
look out for each other,
take care of your friends,
and never lose hope.

Whoever Simon Says is,
they're getting more and more twisted.
Janae's the only one left.
Do you think it'll get worse?
Are you not worried?
No, I or, I guess
not. This sort of.
I don't know.
Those are all the possible answers.
Janae?
- What?
- Why are you being weird?
[SOFT TENSE MUSIC]
I got mine.
But you can save your breath
because I'm not gonna do it.
What do you what do you mean?
What was it?
Simon Says wants me to
graffiti someone's grave,
so obviously I'm just gonna, like,
deal with the consequences of that
because I am never doing that.
I'm so sorry, Janae.
But the consequences
are we all go to jail.
All of our lives are over.
So you'll have to do this
because we all did ours.
We're all in this together, Janae.
- We're your friends.
- No.
If you were my friend,
you would never ask me to do that.
- Janae
- [DOOR OPENS]
[SIGHS]
[LAID-BACK MUSIC PLAYING]
You haven't been fired yet.
I guess Victor hasn't heard about you
and his daughter, huh?
Do you want to do the tasting menu
or do you wanna do à la carte?

You know, it seems like you have a type.
Smart, hot,
way too good for you.
Fuck off, TJ.

Bronwyn.
I really wish I was surprised.
I I don't want you
to have to do this,
but I just knew Simon
Says was gonna check
to make sure it got done, so, um, yeah.
I'm sorry for how I reacted earlier.
"Beloved son and friend to all."
I mean, not how I'd describe him.
I guess I'm not the best judge, right?
- You were his best friend.
- Yeah.
Yeah, I was.
I was best friends with the guy
who planned this insane prank
gone wrong and who cared more about
fucking over the people he
hated than staying alive.
[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]
It's like I didn't really know him.

[SNIFFLES]
And it feels like he's
dying all over again.
[CRYING SOFTLY]

I didn't know him as well as
you did, but I do one thing.
I think that he'd find this hilarious.
You and me,
hanging out, working together,
- cuddling in a graveyard.
- [LAUGHS]
I think he'd fucking hate it.
Okay, but imagine how
much it's gonna cost
his parents to clean this up.
I think he'd be on board for that alone.
[CHUCKLES] Yeah.
You're right on that one.
His mom is gonna freak out.

And he would love that.

I'm gonna need some help.
- [LAUGHS]
- [PLAYFUL MUSIC]
It, um it could be
something meaningful,
like a tribute almost.
It's supposed to be a dick.

- No, we both go.

- Okay.
- You, there!
[SOFT TENSE MUSIC]
Hello, good evening, uh, sir. Officer.
This your work?
Can I plead the fifth?
[KNOCK AT DOOR]
You had enough fun for
one day, don't you think?
I'm here to apologize about that.
I'd really rather not keep
talking about it, Nate.
Look, Fiona, I I feel horrible.
I didn't I didn't mean
to embarrass you, okay?
You've been super good to me.
Who put you up to it?
It was a prank, right?
Some John Hughes movie dare?
I hate this school.
It was supposed to be my fresh start,
but that was ruined on day one.
I was just gonna keep my
head down till graduation.
Look, Fiona.
I get it, okay?
I'm so sorry.
I feel so stupid.
I thought we were friends.
We are.
I even kinda liked you.
[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]
I even kinda liked you too, Jennings.

Past tense?

Coop.
Hey. What's this video?
Did Jake text you?
Is this for real?
[SOFT TENSE MUSIC]
Listen, you hear from
that kid, you come tell me.
You don't go broadcasting it
for the whole world like that,
calling him your teammate.
- What were you thinking?
- I was thinking
that maybe someone
else has heard from him.
Or maybe that it'll help
the cops find him, or
Or maybe it'll make you look like you're
trying to help a fugitive.
Dad, it doesn't have to be a big deal.
Boy, you know better than that.
You know everything we built
can disappear in a second.
- Use your
- [KNOCK AT DOOR]
Get it.
Go on.
Cooper. How you doing?
Saw your post about hearing from Jake,
and I would love to look at your phone.
Go away. He doesn't have
to give you anything.
We're not involved in any of this.
Actually, your son claims that he
heard from Jake in Mexico,
so extremely involved.
And I've got a warrant.
The Riordans were only too
happy to use their connections
to get us in front of a judge quickly
and get that signed off, so

Go ahead.
Give it to her. Go on.
This could help us find
a killer on the run.

- You're not in trouble.
I'm sorry, can I read
that? That could be, like,
school or it could be
practice or it could be
Actually, no.
We can't have you delete
anything that might be useful.
I thought you said he wasn't in trouble.
I'm gonna take this down to the station
and I'm gonna use it to look
for the true origin of that text.
I'll get it back to
you as soon as possible.

So my Simon Says ask was
to deface Simon's grave.
Which I did.
- What?
- Yeah.
And then I got caught by a very
enthusiastic and self-serious
guard person at the cemetery
who notified Simon's parents
as well as my parents about
my artistic expressions.
And, well, the upshot is that my dad's
- coming home from Paris early.
- What? When?
Mmm, he's getting on
a plane pretty soon,
so he'll be home late tomorrow night
so the dead body on his boat's gotta go!
Do you not remember what
happened last time, Janae?
It's too busy on the water.
There's too many people to see us.
Once my dad gets back, there will be
no more chances to take the boat out,
so it's gonna have to be tonight
and we're gonna have to risk it.
We're gonna need Cooper.
Where is he?
We'll meet at the dock by midnight.
Can we find Cooper?
[TENSE MUSIC]

Okay, it's after
midnight. We have to go.
Addy and Cooper are not here.
We don't have time to wait, Bronwyn.
We have to be back by
the time the sun is up.
Okay.

Hey, I see them. Wait, guys. Wait.
Come on, hurry up!
- Let's fuckin' go!
- Let's go!
- You good?
- We're good.
Let's go. Go, go, go.
[TENSE MUSIC]

[BOAT ENGINE TURNS OVER]

How could you make this plan without me?
Cooper, we couldn't get a hold of you.
Because the cops have my phone.
What?
Detective Wheeler took
my phone into evidence
to see where the text really came from.
To find out where Jake really is.
We texted you where to meet us.
Wait, so Wheeler knows we're out here.
Guys, we have to go back to the dock.
- No. No.
- Please.
We have to see this through.
The cops could be waiting for us
by the time we get back there.
Well, good thing that we won't
have a dead body on the boat!
How could you guys
drag me back into this?
Addy, why didn't you come find me?
I'd be better of dealing
with this shit on my own.
Then do it.
Start tomorrow.

- Is this the spot?
- Yeah.
[ENGINE SHUTS OFF]
Let's go.
Can I have a second alone with him?
Are you sure?
- Yeah.
- The code for the lock is 3241.
[DARK MUSIC]

- Hey.
- Hey.
[SIGHS] I saw your texts.
Sorry I didn't get back to you.
Kind of did what you would
call a very Bronwyn thing
and tried doing Janae's
Simon Says ask for her.
Turned into this whole thing.
[SIGHS]
I hated seeing you kiss her.
I know I said I didn't care,
but it made me crazy.
You make me crazy.
[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]
And I know I told you to figure it out,
but if you haven't already,
what I want
is to be the only girl you kiss.

We have really bad timing, don't we?
[LAUGHS]
You mean pouring my heart
out on a boat with a dead body
isn't the best timing?
[CHUCKLES]

[SOFTLY] I love you.

[SOFT TENSE MUSIC]

[COMBINATION LOCK CLICKING]

[BREATHING HEAVILY]
Look what you've done.
What I've done?

I built my whole world around you.
And you were a lie.
You never loved me.

You loved controlling me.
And you had no part in that?

You never had a thought
of you own, Addy.
Always waiting around for
me to tell you what to do.
I knew something was off
when you were in Greece.
I knew in my gut that you
were with someone else,
but I didn't know how to
listen to my own instincts.
And whose fault is that?
All you ever did was lie.
And I got so used to
listening to your story
that I didn't know how to hear my own.
[SOMBER MUSIC]
[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
I'm not sorry that I shot you.

But I am sorry that you're dead
'cause I would've loved to
see the look on your face
when I become the person
I'm meant to be without you.

[EXHALES]
Guys.

[SIGHS]
- You okay?
- [SIGHS]
Yeah, I will be.

Kind of wish we had something to burn.
As, like, a ritual.
Like, cleansing.
Yeah.
Cleansing sounds right.
Maybe I should delete
all of Jake's pictures.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
[SCOFFS] Giselle took this one.
Can you believe that?
He was sending me
pictures that she took.
Wait.
Addy, this isn't Greece.
What? Yes, it is.
He sent it to me from that
trip and Giselle recognized it.
No, I recognize this site.
it was a final question in
last year's academic decathlon.
This is the Second Temple of Hera.
- It's in Italy.
- Are you sure?
Yes.
This is also Photoshopped.
Do you see how his shadow doesn't match
the buildings in the back?
Someone constructed this image.
- But if Jake was never in Greece
- Then Giselle was lying.
Why would he lie to
me about being there?
And why would Giselle
prop up the same lie?
I don't know. None
of it makes any sense.
Unless unless Giselle is Simon Says.
She's obsessed with
Jake, wants revenge
And she starts toying
with us from a distance
but then she wants to
escalate, so she comes into town
and steps up the torture.
And manipulates us into moving the body.
Which we do as the cops are
going through Cooper's phone.
Is that possible?
That Giselle set us up?
If we go back to shore
and the cops are there
[SIGHS] Then we'll know.
[TENSE MUSIC]

Oh, shit.

You ready?


It's over.
I think it's just getting started.
