One of Us Is Lying (2021) s02e08 Episode Script

Simon Says Game Over

Lean forward into cobra position.
Feel the life energy
flowing into your lungs.
So I hear you're fucking my dorm mate.
Whoa!
Giselle?
I'm pretty sure she started that rumor.
I caught her watching me in the showers.
I'm not gonna lie, it
was actually kind of hot.
Careful with her.
She's a total stalker.
That's why she's in here.
Are you jealous, Fi?
You know your charm doesn't work on me.
Yeah? Why's that?
Because I see the real you, Jake,
and you're a sociopath.
Someone's been working on
their words of affirmation.
Don't worry.
I'm sure this lakeside painting
is working wonders on you.
You'll be feeling things
like a real boy in no time.
Yeah, that's right, and
soon your violent urges
will be replaced with hugs and rainbows.
If only I'd taken an art class earlier,
Mr. Sheridan might still
have both his kidneys.
Well, that'd be a shame.
After what you told me, it sounds like
that pervert deserved what he got.
Maybe more.
And what about you, Jake?
You still haven't told
me why you're here.
- Why does it matter?
- It doesn't.
But it feels good to hear
you validate what I did.
Maybe I want to return the favor.
Whatever it is, you know
you can be honest with me.
There's nothing you could say
that would make me think less of you.
Try me.
Can you keep a secret?
I'll tell you what I did.
But you got to take
this one to your grave.
Are you sure this is the right way?
Yeah, I'm sure.
One sec. I'm sorry.
- Everything OK?
- Yeah.
Mm-hmm
You sure?
You look a little freaked out.
No, I'm I'm good. I'm good.
Good.
I'm not here. Leave a message.
Nate, please call me back.
You have to get out of there.
- Why is he not answering?
- OK, Bronwyn.
She's not gonna hurt him in
the middle of a restaurant.
It's gonna be fine.
So you never told me
where you were yesterday.
I was worried.
Yeah I had a, um, family emergency.
I was out of town.
You missed a lot of excitement here.
Did you know they found Jake's car?
Search teams have
been going out all day.
I guess they think he's dead.
That would look pretty bad for
you and your friends, wouldn't it?
What, Jake getting drunk
and driving off a cliff?
Is that what you think happened?
Probably, yeah.
I mean, the guy was a fucking idiot.
And an asshole.
Whatever happened,
he deserved it.
You're lucky you never knew him.
Did you?
I think we both know the answer.
So it was you this whole time.
- I thought we
- What?
That I was some innocent
misunderstood girl?
That we had a real connection?
That you broke my heart
by picking Bronwyn?
Don't do anything stupid, Nate.
If something happens to me,
that video gets sent to the cops.
You have to know I have
a failsafe in place.
OK. What do you want?
What do I want?
I want justice, an eye for an eye.
Simon says give me
whoever pulled the trigger,
and this is all over.
It was me.
Lying to me is a bad idea, Nate.
How about this?
I'll give you until tomorrow at midnight
to decide if you want to tell the truth
and sacrifice one of your own.
If not, I give the cops
the video of all of you in
the woods on Halloween night.
We're not scared of going to jail.
I know.
But gonna jail won't end the game.
There are lots of people
I can still play with.
Maeve and Kris seem fun.
It's your choice, Nate.
Now get out of my car.
- Janae, is that
- Jake's gun.
What is that doing in your pool house?
- Please don't freak out.
- Don't freak out?
- This gun incriminates us all.
- OK, I know.
I know. I'm sorry.
I should have told you at the time,
but I didn't know who I could trust.
I do now.
Why'd you keep it?
I thought we might need
it to protect ourselves.
- And here we are.
- No.
No way.
We are not doing self-defense again.
Addy, she's trying to kill you, OK?
You heard Nate an eye for an eye.
It doesn't matter.
I can't fit another
skeleton in my closet.
OK. Does she know for
a fact that it was Addy?
Well, she knew it wasn't me.
And she was in the woods.
She sent me the gun.
She's known it's me all along.
It's just more torture
making you hand me over.
Which means she might kill you,
whether we give you up or not.
And who knows if she'd stop there?
But using the gun's off the table.
- Got it.
- No.
There has to be another way.
OK, what if we can prove
that she killed Giselle?
- Turn her in to the cops?
- No.
The last time we tried
that, we found nothing
and TJ ended up in jail.
Last time, we were trying to
figure out who killed Giselle.
Now we know. We just need proof.
Right, but we don't have much time.
OK, so we divide and conquer.
We look into every
corner of Fiona's life.
We only have 24 hours,
but there is six of us and one of her.
Wait, guys.
What if there's more than one of her?
- Sorry, what?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
How did she know that you
knew she was Simon Says?
Um
Are you saying someone tipped her off?
Maybe.
Vanessa.
Hey.
What's going on? You OK?
You tell me. Is my life still in danger?
No? I I don't know.
You don't know. Great.
Yeah, real fucking comforting, Addy.
Well, we figured out who Simon Says is.
It's Fiona,
but she may not be working alone.
Who?
We don't know yet.
No, no, no, no, no. Who's Fiona?
Oh, Fiona Jennings.
Remember Simon wrote about her
stabbing her English teacher last year?
She was at Wild Awakenings with Jake.
Oh.
Oh, shit, her.
That's how Jake knew about her.
What?
Jake told Simon that on the Xbox.
OK, but that doesn't matter right now.
What matters is the
plan. What is the plan?
And how do we stop this bitch, Addy?
We are figuring that out.
For now, just lie low.
We don't have much time.
No, what do you mean "lie low," Addy?
Girl, we're gonna be good.
We watching "Drag Race."
We got, like, 20 episodes left.
It's gonna be fine.
Ugh!
Hey.
You OK?
Does it look like I'm OK?
How did Simon find out?
I have no idea.
It's like he's got eyes everywhere,
no matter how hard you
try to cover your tracks.
This was supposed to be a fresh start.
You were supposed to help me.
And I will.
We'll help each other, right?
Just like this summer.
You're my best friend, Fiona.
You're the only person I
can really be myself around.
We just have to wait
for this to blow over
before I can invite you
to sit at our lunch table.
And when will that be?
Soon.
Soon.
And in the meantime, I promise,
Simon won't get away with hurting you.
This is still gonna
be a great year for us.
OK?
OK.
Key.
People are so predictable.
OK.
Is it just me, or is this
place a little creepy?
Yeah, not just you.
Seriously, who lives like this?
Someone who doesn't want to be
seen for who they really are.
Ooh.
OK, there's nothing here.
What about this?
Proves she knew Giselle
at Wild Awakenings.
It doesn't prove she killed her.
Oh.
This was Jake's favorite movie.
Once again, people are so predictable.
It's Greece.
And that's Jake's handwriting.
- I don't get it.
- "Thanks for all the memories.
We made some great ones. J."
I knew it.
Fiona's the one who made
him the Greece picture.
She literally made memories.
So that's proof that they were
conspiring since the summer.
But it doesn't prove
that Fiona killed Giselle.
I hope the others have more luck.
OK, what exactly are we looking for?
Fiona had to cancel tutoring
a couple times for rehearsal,
so I thought there might be
a theater equivalent of a locker room.
You mean a dressing room?
Guys, over here.
This is what she wore on Halloween.
Well, it could have her
DNA on it, or Jake's.
- Yeah, but not Giselle's.
- Right. Shit.
Right, but it means
we're on the right track.
Yeah, almost.
Guys, she's stage manager.
Of course she is.
Which means
Stairs?
Well, this is all making sense
her being the stage manager,
pulling the strings
from behind the scenes.
- On brand.
- Yeah.
You think she could watch us from here?
Hack into the school's cameras?
And that's how she would keep
track of us doing her sick asks.
Yeah, not impossible.
Oh, my God. Guys
- Look at this.
- Jackpot.
OK, if this is linked to her phone,
we could have her location
history or texts with Giselle.
It could place her at the waterpark
the night Giselle died. Um
- Birthday. What's her birthday?
- I don't know.
OK, well, she's definitely a Gemini.
- What the fuck does that mean?
- June!
OK.
You really think you can guess?
It's worth a try, right?
Symbolism is
a literary device that
uses words or images
to convey intangible ideas,
such as themes and emotions.
The use of symbolism can add
depth, create foreshadowing,
or give the reader more information
about the plot and/or the characters.
So your task is to give three examples
of symbolism in the
text and what they use
Mr. Clay?
- Yeah?
- Going somewhere?
Really got to use the bathroom.
Sorry.
- Oh, my God.
- What?
- Oh, my God. What's happening?
- No, no, no, no, she's wiping it,
which means that there is definitely
something important on there.
OK, can you get it back?
- Guys
- I don't think so.
Guys, this probably also means
she knows we have her iPad, OK?
- So let's go.
- He's right.
- Just leave it. Come on.
- OK.
Maeve.
Sorry. Sorry.
- You guys OK?
- Yeah.
- Where is she?
- I don't know. And I don't want to find out.
- Let's just go.
- OK.
OK. Come on.
This morning, Maritime
search and rescue teams
recovered a body, which has just been
positively identified as Jake Riordan.
The Bayview senior has been
missing since Halloween.
Autopsy results are still pending,
but police believe the cause of death
was a gunshot to the chest.
More details to come.
OK, not to state the obvious, but
fuck.
If they have the body
and Fiona has the video,
it's over.
You could always hand me over.
So she can kill you
and turn us in instead?
- Guys, we still have time.
- To do what?
There's too much evidence
that we killed Jake
and none that she killed Giselle.
She won.
Unless
Unless what, Rojas?
We can't prove that she killed Giselle,
but what if we can prove
she killed Jake?
OK, why would anyone believe
that Fiona Jennings killed Jake Riordan?
Most of you have been
suspected of murder
enough times to be familiar
with this little love triangle.
All we have to do is prove that
Fiona had the means, motive,
and opportunity to kill Jake.
- So where do we begin, Bronwyn?
- With motive.
It should be easy to
prove that Jake and Fiona
were working together since last summer.
She had the postcard
from him in the bedroom,
plus the necklace from Wild Awakening.
We need more.
We have to prove that
she helped Jake hack
into "About That" after Simon died,
that she knew he killed
Simon and helped him frame us.
And she killed Jake because
he was about to be caught.
She knew that he was gonna
drag her down with him.
Would it help to upload Simon's
hard drive onto her laptop?
Yeah. If the hard drive
wasn't the one thing
that actually made it to
the bottom of the ocean.
You made another backup, didn't you?
That's great,
except we couldn't find her laptop.
Victor's has public Wi-Fi.
Doesn't that make it easy to
hack a computer on that network?
- Yeah.
- OK.
So what if we make it look
like Fiona was operating
from her dad's computer in his office?
I mean, the yacht picks up their signal,
which I now feel way less
guilty about stealing.
That could actually work.
I'll go with you.
All right, so that takes care of motive.
What about opportunity?
Well, she was at the Halloween
party in that dumb bear costume.
But if she had killed him
while wearing the costume,
then Jake's DNA would be all over it.
- So we can plant his DNA.
- Oh.
I really want this to work.
I just don't want to find
out have a little vial
of Jake blood somewhere.
Got to admit, blood is better
than where my mind went.
OK. both of you, disgusting!
I was actually talking about his hair.
His mom probably hasn't
thrown out any of his stuff.
I mean, what, she thought he
was alive until two minutes ago.
Cooper, do you think you
could talk your way in there
and get his hairbrush?
I'll go, but I could use backup.
After the whole fiasco
with Jake's watch,
Cole's not gonna take
his eyes off of me.
If you distract Cole, I can sneak in.
How's your mom?
But what happens if
we get caught by Fiona,
again?
Addy and I will follow
her. We can take my car.
And I'll just text you
if there's any issues.
- Addy can't drive.
- So?
So if something happens to Bronwyn,
we need someone who can take the wheel.
Maeve, come on. I'll be fine.
It's OK. Addy can go with Maeve.
I'll go with Bronwyn.
OK, so we keep eyes on Fiona
and we find an opening
to plant the final piece.
Where's the gun?
If the police find this in Fiona's car,
it should be enough to
put her away for good.
It's not gonna work without
Fiona's fingerprints on the gun.
It's gonna look like we framed her.
Unless
Unless we're not the ones
to tip the police off.
We could have Vanessa
explain our theory to Wheeler.
Fiona Jennings was in rehab with Jake.
She'll connect the dots
between Fiona and Jake
at Wild Awakenings,
so that when the police
find the gun and all this
other evidence we planted,
they won't know to bring it back to us.
That's perfect, Addy.
And when the cops realize
that Fiona had the means,
the gun, the motive,
her collab with Jake,
and the opportunity
her presence at the
party the night he died
they'll have no choice but to
take her seriously as a suspect.
OK. I feel like we're
forgetting one tiny detail.
- Don't touch him.
- What, why?
Don't touch him!
Fiona has a video of
you guys in the woods.
OK, so if the cops see the video,
we could say that we found
his body after she killed him,
that she lured us to the
woods to take the video.
We knew it would look
like we killed him,
so we didn't want to come forward.
Not perfect, but it's
the best shot we got.
And at least, if we go down,
then Fiona goes down with us.
She's a killer,
and this is the only
way we can stop her.
So if there aren't
any other objections
Guessing I don't get a vote.
Look, Fiona gave us until
midnight to hand Addy over,
so we only have until then
to put everything in place.
And that's not accounting
for whatever Fiona's planning.
Plus, we still don't know
if she's working alone.
She's at Victor's.
- We have to hurry.
- I'm going as fast as I can.
OK, Maeve, is it working?
- I think so.
- I really hope so.
Hold this.
Wow, Nate's really had an effect on you.
Maeve, I really hate to do
this, but how much longer?
I just need a little more time, Addy.
I have to admit, I'm impressed.
- I truly.
- Thank you.
Fuck.
- What?
- No, no. It's not here.
What do you mean, it's not here?
- It's not here!
- Bronwyn, where's the gun?
I don't know. I don't know!
All right. Great.
OK.
Let's go.
Maeve?
Why are we moving?
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
- What are you doing?
- We have to get up there.
- It's Fiona.
- What if she's not alone?
We need a plan. You
can't just run up there.
Oh, fuck.
I'm just gonna check,
because it has to be in here.
'Cause maybe you're
just blind right now.
Hey, hey, hey, guys. What's wrong?
- The gun's missing.
- What?
We put it in the bag.
- And it hasn't left my side
- No way.
Since we left the pool house.
- Could it have fallen out?
- No.
Someone had to have taken it.
Maeve, what's the plan?
Why do you have that?
It's OK, Addy.
You can come out.
It's over.
Maeve.
She's on my team now.
You're so fucked.
Bronwyn, there's just no way.
It was Maeve.
She didn't think our plan would work,
so she took matters into her own hands.
No. She she would have told me.
Wait. What if it's worse than that?
What if she's the one
that tipped off Fiona?
Oh, my God. I think I'm gonna be sick.
Wait, wait. Where is Addy?
Is she still on the
yacht with your sister?
Fiona, she wanted us to hand
over whoever pulled the trigger.
And Maeve changed the plan so that she'd
- be with Addy instead of me.
- OK. We have to go, now.
Come on.
Maeve, why are you doing this?
For fuck sake, Addy, stop making
this harder than it has to be.
Tell her. Tell her the truth.
I had to save my sister.
Bronwyn wasn't even there
when the gun went off.
That was all you.
How long have you been
working with this psycho?
- What did I say
- Ow.
About that word?
And you should be thanking Maeve.
She's the reason you and your friends
aren't behind bars right now.
Oh, and why is that?
Because after you convinced everyone
to turn themselves in, I
sent Simon Says a message.
I knew she would help.
If she wanted you in jail,
she would have turned you in herself.
So instead, you let TJ rot away in jail?
Mm, I see it more like you
guys aren't rotting away
in jail because of me.
Maeve was right.
I thought jail was too good for you all.
I'm more of a "death by
1,000 cuts" kind of girl.
And I have to admit,
I was impressed Maeve figured
out how to message me back.
Unlike your little murder friends,
I can recognize talent when I see it.
For a while, our interests were aligned.
Maeve wanted to keep you out of jail,
and I wanted to keep
playing with my toys.
But now that you know who I am,
I'm afraid playtime is over.
So what now?
Maeve and I made a deal.
Someone has to pay the
ultimate price for killing Jake.
And that someone is you.
And in return, your
friends stay out of jail.
So you're actually just gonna kill me?
There's no other way, Addy.
The best part is,
your friends will torture themselves
for the rest of their lives
for letting this happen to you.
And my work will be done.
No, Fiona.
I promise you that you will rot in jail.
Only if the police find
your body, which they won't.
I'm not gonna make the same
mistakes you made with Jake.
OK. I gave you what you want.
So now you're gonna delete that video.
Right?
Right?
Maeve.
Permanent delete.
Done.
I'm really sorry, Addy.
But one dead's better than five in jail.
Fuck you!
Oh, my God!
We have to get out there!
Your neighbors won't mind
if we borrow this, will they?
I've been waiting for this
moment for a long time.
You're finally gonna
get what you deserve.
You're so fucking pathetic.
What did you say?
You let your obsession
with a toxic shithead
turn you into a psycho,
which by the way, is
what you call someone
who plays Simon Says with their victims.
So just fucking accept it already!
Jake didn't turn me into anything.
He saw the real me.
And he loved me for it.
Jake was my person.
And you took him away from me!
Everything's ready to go.
It's time for our endgame.
Locker 102.
Send it.
It's done.
Yeah, well, this part is.
I have a feeling you and
I are just getting started.
God, I can't believe I'm
gonna get away with it.
We're gonna get away with it.
You should get back before
anyone notices you're missing.
Yeah, but I like hanging out in here
with you, you know?
Pulling the strings.
OK.
How about one dance, before I go?
You know I don't dance.
Come on.
- No.
- Yes, yes, yes, yes,
yes, yes, yes.
Everybody dances.
Watching you
and your little band of
murder friends have each other,
when you took him from me,
I couldn't stand it.
Now all I have left to fill
the void inside me are tears.
And I'm done crying.
Are you finished?
Yeah.
Simon says,
game over.
Are you fucking kidding
- What the hell?
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
- I'm really sorry, Addy.
- Oh, my God.
The plan wasn't gonna work
without her deleting that footage.
This was the only way to get that done
and get her prints on
the gun. I'm so sorry.
And yours.
Wrong.
I put wax on the fingertips.
The use this trick in
all the heist movies.
Maeve? Just fucking untie me!
OK, OK, OK, I'm sorry.
God, you could have warned me.
Finally.
OK.
- You coming?
- I can't.
One of us should stay
in case Fiona comes back.
But I trust you. Please, save them.
We will.
I promise.
Sit down, and hold on.
- Ow.
- I'm so sorry.
Fuck.
Ow.
How did she tie this?
- I'm really sorry.
- Ah, fuck.
- Can we hurry?
- Yes.
OK, let's
- Oh, shit, shit, shit.
- Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
No!
Fuck.
I think we're trapped.
Open the door! Fiona!
Fiona, open the fucking door.
Open the fucking door.
Let us out!
- Somebody!
- Please!
Fiona!
- Please, let us out!
- Fiona!
Please!
Maeve!
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
- Help!
- Help! Help!
No, no, no.
911, what is your emergency?
I'm really sorry, Addy.
You weren't supposed to get hurt.
You weren't supposed to get hurt.
Guys!
Addy?
Nate.
Hey, come on. We have to go.
- You OK?
- Up you go.
Addy Come on.
- You OK?
- Addy, can you make it?
- I'll be right back, okay?
- Wait. Wait, wait, wait, wait!
- What?
- The gun.
- The gun's in my bag.
- Where?
The gun's in the bag!
Buddy.
I got it! I got it!
Ahh!
Oh! My arm!
Ahh!
Help!
Cooper!
No, please.
Fiona.
Fiona!
Stop!
Stop.
It's over.
You must be devastated
about your friends.
I wonder which of them burned
and which of them drowned.
And your own sister,
betraying you like that.
Stay back.
And she wasn't the only one.
Did Nate tell you about us?
The cafeteria was just the beginning.
He didn't even need a
prompt from Simon Says.
Stop talking!
Maybe you two aren't endgame
like you thought you were.
OK.
So maybe my sister betrayed
me, and Nate did too.
But what I want to know is how
you forgave Jake for betraying you.
What are you talking about?
You don't know?
He told Simon all about you.
Vanessa heard it all
on the Xbox recording.
You're lying.
You're a hacker, right?
So you could have deleted
all of that evidence
about Jake and Simon from that Xbox.
But he wouldn't let you, would he?
You shouldn't be here.
You're getting sloppy.
Bronwyn and Nate are here.
I saw them.
I can help you fix this if
you just give me that Xbox.
I'm not getting sloppy.
You're being crazy
showing up here like this.
Fuck.
Fi, I'm sorry.
So the truth comes out.
I didn't mean it like that. I
Listen.
I'm gonna take care of this. OK?
Just like you've taken care of me.
Fi, I wouldn't have been
able to do this without you.
But I need to finish this alone.
OK?
I'll see you on the other side.
I promise.
He didn't want you to
see what was on the Xbox,
because he knew how you
get when you're angry.
I mean, Jesus, pushing
a girl off a waterslide
for overstaying her welcome?
She could have exposed me,
and you were getting too close.
You left me no choice.
Giselle's death was your fault too.
You want to know what
the saddest part is?
Jake didn't even trade your secret.
He just gave it away, so he wouldn't
have to pretend like he was
your friend for even one day!
So yeah, maybe I'm not a killer.
But I sure as hell know
how to twist a knife.
You're lying!
I'll kill you!
What was that you were saying
about twisting the knife?
- Freeze!
- Bayview PD! Don't move!
11-41, I need an
ambulance at this location.
- My friends.
- You're OK.
My friends.
An ambulance is on the way.
Am I a hero? Sure.
Yes, some people are using that word.
But the truth is, I just
did what I knew was right.
I'm just an ordinary girl who
believes in truth and justice for all.
Now, I know you never believed
that Jake was in Mexico.
But when did you first start to suspect
that Fiona was involved?
Well, if I'm being honest,
I always had my suspicions about her.
But you didn't raise your concerns
with police until a few days ago.
Why is that?
Well, at first it was just a hunch.
But
I knew if I wanted
to be taken seriously,
I needed proof.
Once I was able to show
the police the full picture,
they had no choice but to believe me.
And listening to you led them
to the indisputable evidence
that Fiona helped Jake
cover up Simon's murder
and then murdered Jake in cold blood.
How does that make you feel?
I'm just relieved that the
truth about Jake is out there.
And I'm hopeful that the
police will hurry up and drop
the charges against TJ Forrester,
who is so clearly another
one of Fiona's victims.
And if they don't,
will we see a Justice
for TJ campaign from you?
Well, I
I hope I don't have to.
But if that's what it takes,
absolutely.
Thank you, Vanessa, for
I don't want to talk to you.
You can't shut me out forever.
Are you serious?
Trust me, ignoring you is, by far,
the kindest thing I
can muster right now.
Bronwyn, your plan was not going to work
without deleting that footage
and getting her fingerprints on the gun.
- I saved you from
- You have no way of knowing
if that's true. And you never will.
How long were you talking to her?
How long were you going
behind our fucking backs?
I had to go behind your back
because you never listen to me.
I just wanted a vote.
No, you wanted us to
do whatever you said,
because you think you're
smarter than everyone else.
Trust me, I know that feeling.
But I never would
have done what you did.
You would be rotting in jail right now,
and Fiona would be walking around free
if I hadn't done what I did.
But instead, I'm lying in a
hospital bed lucky to be alive.
And so is Cooper.
You want me to put a ribbon on
you and tell you you're a hero.
You're not.
You tipped her off.
You're a traitor.
And I need you to get out of my room.
Bronwyn, I needed her to trust me.
Well, now I can never trust you again.
- Bronwyn.
- Get the fuck out of my room.
Get out!
OK.
You know, I'm a little
concerned about this one.
I do not know what Bronwyn's gonna say.
It's funny.
- OK, well it came from you
- I don't think you could say
Not
You OK?
I just don't know how I'm
ever gonna forgive her.
I mean, you almost died, Addy.
Yeah. But I didn't.
I'm still here.
I know.
Hey, Sleeping Beauty.
Hey, Dad.
The doctor says your surgery went great.
Yeah? What does great mean?
It means you can start
physical therapy in a month.
You know? If that goes well,
you might even be able
to play again this season.
I might?
What are the other options?
Dad, what is the worst-case scenario?
I need to know.
Worst-case scenario,
you don't ever get your
strength or speed back.
No.
No.
I'm not gonna let that happen.
I know.
You're a fighter.
Listen, kiddo,
I need to talk to you about something.
Yeah?
You know what? Never mind.
- It can wait.
- You sure?
Yeah.
Um, sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.
I could come back.
No, that's OK. It's all right.
Come on in.
Um I'm
Dad, this is, um
this is Kris,
my, um
my boyfriend.
Kris, this is my dad,
Kevin.
Hi.
Nice to meet you, Kris.
Nice to meet you, too.
I was worried he was gonna say friend.
Mm-hmm, me too.
Thank you for coming.
What am I doing here?
I need your help.
I didn't kill your brother.
A whole lot of evidence says otherwise.
But I have proof.
I tried to tell that
detective I have a video.
I heard.
You swore you have a
video showing Murder Club
standing over Jake's dead body
you hid inside the theater in school.
Yes.
I told her exactly where to look.
But she found the thumb drive.
It was porn.
That little bitch switched it!
The police need to talk to Maeve Rojas.
She has the real thing.
I believe you.
I don't think you killed my brother.
Look, if there is a video out there,
I will make sure the police find it.
Thank you.
Can I ask you something?
Sure.
I know Jake killed Simon.
I just I can't understand why.
You knew him better than anyone.
Do you know why he did it?
Maybe he knew Jake's secret,
the one that landed
him at Wild Awakenings.
Jake told you about that?
We told each other everything.
We were soulmates.
Thank you for loving my brother.
I'm gonna do everything I
can to get you out of here.
I promise, it won't be long.
OK?
Jennings, chow time.
Help.
I can't believe that
you went from not wanting
to be a part of this group to having
Nate live in your backyard.
I'd rather not talk about it.
Wealthy family takes
in misunderstood teen
with troubled and criminal past.
I mean, you're kind of
like the white Fresh Prince.
They can make a whole TV show about you.
They did. It's called "The OC."
Janae,
you sure your parents
are cool with this?
Apparently, the yacht
was a huge money suck.
The insurance payout was
big, but my dad felt bad
that it came at your expense.
I just wish they took
that kind of pity on me.
How long are you staying at Balmoral?
You'll be back for graduation, right?
If we even last that long.
Cooper.
Not the vibe.
OK, sorry. Sorry. You're
right. You're right.
I guess I've kind of just gotten used
to the life-or-death
stakes of our senior year.
Yeah, I feel like I'm
dreaming, or something.
Like, is this really over?
I think it is.
Well, then,
I guess Murder Club is adjourned.
So does "The OC" hold up?
Uh, mostly.
I mean, there are some cringey moments.
- Naturally.
- But I'm sure when the iPad babies come of age,
they're gonna think we're
pretty problematic too.
Just, um, one more thing.
A while back,
you asked me to do
something no one ever has.
And I just wanted you to
know how much it meant to me.
"Stay."
Um, here.
Think of this as a promise.
I'm not going anywhere, Rojas.
Nate
What's what's wrong?
I know you hooked up with Fiona.
Bronwyn. I'm sorry.
- Let me explain. Um
- Yeah, yeah.
We all make mistakes, myself included.
The old me wouldn't have
been able to get over it.
But Fiona's hurt all of us enough,
and I'm not gonna let
her take you from me.
Just promise me, from now on,
no more secrets.
I, Nate Macauley,
promise not to keep any
more secrets from you.
Come here.
You sure we're OK?
- Hmm?
- Yeah.
- This is exactly what I want.
- Mm-hmm.
You're the only thing that
makes sense in my life right now.
Everything else with
my sister and not knowing
where I'm gonna be in the fall
I just don't know what
the future looks like
Hey, hey, hey.
All we have to do is make it through
the next few months and graduate.
Then we'll have all summer
to figure the rest out.
OK?
Yeah.
Ha-ha-ha-ha!
Okay, what are they doing?
Okay, okay, we need
- Oh!
- Oh, that was close.
