[SHAUNA] Lottie is dead.
[MISTY] What good is a DNA profile
without samples to compare it to?
[CALLIE] Someone left this for you.
Maybe whoever sent
it had something to do
- with what happened to Lottie.
- The brakes
[YELLING]
the freezer, now this?
Both of you pack a bag.
Someone is trying to kill us.
[VAN] Fuck, it chose.
Well, it chose someone.
[VAN] I can't do this.
Can we just enjoy the time we have left?
Taissa, she met up with
Charlotte the day she died.
[LOTTIE] Were you outside
last night eating dirt?
The People v. Benjamin Scott.
We find you guilty.
Why can you not just
let me fucking die?!
Thank you.
[MISTY] What did you do?!
[LOTTIE] Shauna will lead us.
When people die out here, we honor them.
So tonight we'll honor Coach Scott, too.
What about Natalie?
[SHAUNA] Natalie will prepare the feast.

I guess it's like they say.
The heart wants what it wants.


[BIRD CAWING]
[FEEDBACK OVER HEADPHONES]
I think it might be the most
beautiful thing I've ever heard.
Well, had I known how
much hiking was involved,
I might have chosen
a different specialty.
But I'm really glad we're out here.
And they're out here.
- Hey, babe.
- Hmm?
How do you think Kodi
got all those scars?
[LAUGHS]
[HANNAH] Special forces?
[EDWIN] Nah, probably a motorcycle gang.
Sasquatch.
You'd be surprised how many
things out here can kill a man.
Hey. Whoa, whoa. Whoa,
whoa. Hey, wait
Jesus Christ, you
almost took my ear off.
Yeah, but it was his heart.
- Aw, shit.
- [KODI] Hungry?
Oh, God.
[SIGHS]
[WINCES]
Fuck.
Oh, great. Thanks.
Told you to size up.
Hannah, since you can still walk,
do you mind getting us some plates?
Dinner's on the house tonight, everyone.
The wilderness provides.
I call this dish "Peter."
Hmm. A guide and a personal
chef? How lucky are we?
I'm good.
You know you're gonna run
out of those at some point.
Well, the last team hid
a stash somewhere, so
Hannah, do you know
where my field manual is?
[PULSING MUSIC]
Hey, hey, hey, hey. Be careful, man.
- Those are expensive.
- Yeah, it's gonna rain.
Didn't think you'd want all your
knobs and whirly bits getting wet.
What? There's not a cloud in the
[THUNDER RUMBLING]
[RAIN PATTERING]
So, Kodiak your parents
named you after the bear?
Chewing tobacco.
Did you grow up out here?
How'd you get into
this backcountry stuff?
Followed a buck into the
woods with my bow and
never came out.
You're not gonna give
me anything? [SCOFFS]
How did you hook up with the university?
You don't seem like the type
to have found our project on GeoCities.
- Geo-what-now?
- [SCOFFS]
Oh, no, guys, I'm a frog expert.
You didn't know that?
Did you guys hear about those frogs
that were looking for a leader?
It's a true story. So,
Zeus, he got them a log.
And they're sitting on
it, and they're bitching.
They're like, "We need a real
king. Someone who takes action."
So Zeus was like, "Fine."
Got them a heron. You
know what the heron did?
Eats them all.
[EXHALES] Glad to know that we
have a real expert in our midst.
You got me. I don't
know shit about frogs.
I mean, other than they're delicious.
Do know a little bit
about horticulture though.
Grew it myself.
Pine flavored.
Want to join us, Edgar?
- Edwin.
- What's that?
It's Edwin. My name is
Edwin, you know that.
[KODI] It's nice.
["FLY" BY SUGAR RAY PLAYING]
[KODI] So let me get this straight.
So your frogs, they stay
frozen for seven years.
And then thaw out just to
have a summerlong frog orgy?
[LAUGHS]
Uh, it's a little more
complicated than that.
- It's a mating event.
- Mm-hmm.
[THUNDER RUMBLING]
You two are real
perverts, you know that?
[SCOFFS] Just Hannah.
I was studying toad secretions,
like a normal person,
but she kept going on
and on about these guys.
Some folks from the
university came out years ago.
But the Arctic Banshee Frog
has never actually been recorded before.
No kidding.
And it will never be recorded again,
- unless this rain lets up.
- [CHUCKLES]
Put your arms around me, baby ♪
You knew it was gonna start.
Do you know when it's gonna stop?
Who can predict the future?
[HANNAH LAUGHS]
I got an idea. [GRUNTS]
Why don't we, uh, why
don't we call Mrs. Cleo?
[HANNAH LAUGHS]
Who?
The 900 number psychic? [GIGGLES]
Wait, wait, wait, wait, babe.
Hold on, I was just kidding.
This is for emergencies
'cause one call from this thing
- is like half our budget.
- It's not gonna go through.
We're not high enough.
Oh, no, no. We are plenty high.
We have to have a clear line to the sky.
- [BEEPING]
- [EDWIN] Okay.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
You're pushing so many buttons.
Besides, this is an emergency.
Is Kodi gonna find himself
a Mrs. Kodi? [LAUGHS]
Pretty sure the future Mrs. Kodi
is already working one of
those other 900 numbers.
- Let me, let me just try it.
- I it's not
I'll try. No, no, I know how to do this.
- [LAUGHING]
- I got to talk to someone.
Guys, guys, guys. That's way too rough.
[HANNAH LAUGHING]
[EDWIN] Guys
[HANNAH LAUGHING]
[MUSIC STOPS]
Shit.
[STATIC CRACKLING]
What's the matter with
you? This is our lifeline.
Relax. I'm your lifeline.
[HAUNTING MUSIC]

[HANNAH] You're being really rude.
- He's trying to help us.
- [EDWIN] I'm not being rude.
I'm being rude 'cause
he's being rude first.
[HANNAH] He's not being rude
at all. Stop acting like
[EDWIN] He's got this
whole tough guy thing.
He's, like, being really
macho and fucked up.
[HANNAH] He is a tough guy.
[EDWIN] Look, when we
woke up this morning
I looked at the map
again and I'm pretty sure
we're supposed to be
going south right now.
This is his job. Just let him do it.
Yeah, but what makes
him an expert, you know?
It's not like there's
professional certification
for "Mountain Man," or whatever.
I don't know. That crossbow
stuff seemed pretty legit to me.
[EDWIN] You're being
a smartass right now.
I'm trying to be serious. Okay?
Well, what do you want to
do? Want to go off on our own?
Well, no, I just
I think we should raise
our concern a little bit.
Here. Maybe I'll show him the map.
Maybe, uh, maybe I'll
show him this compass.
- No.
- [KODI] Anytime, guys.
[SIGHS]
I think we're going the wrong way.
Is that all?
- Excuse me.
- There you go.
Uh, don't listen to him. He
dropped out of Boy Scouts.
Look, all I'm saying is this
guy could rob and murder us,
and nobody would ever know.
We don't know anything about this guy.
See how evasive he was every
time you asked him a question?
All he gave you was that
story about libertarian frogs.
- [LAUGHS]
- [SCOFFS]
Hannah. Hannah, what if he
broke the phone on purpose?
You're paranoid.
'Kay. You guys done with the murmuring?
You're smitten.
[HANNAH] Hey, Kodi. Keep
an eye out for streams.
I'm hoping for some hatching tadpoles.
[UNEASY MUSIC]
[INSECTS CHIRPING]
Hey, look at this.
You're going through his stuff?
His name isn't Erik, Hannah.
Well, maybe he bought it secondhand.
Just put it back, before
[SNIFFS]
What?
Is that ?
It-it smells like, um
- Barbecue?
- Yeah.
Yeah. That means there's people nearby
and there's strength in numbers.
I think we should go find them.
Wouldn't recommend it.
This far from civilization?
I don't care. I'm gonna go check it out.
[QUIET, PULSING MUSIC]

[HANNAH] Slow down.
It's really dark.

Not just a mom who had

[TAPE PLAYER CLICKS]
[SOMBER MUSIC]

[KNOCKING AT DOOR]
[SHAUNA] Ugh. What?
Are you gonna be a while in there?
Should I just use the
bathroom in the lobby?
No, no, no. Wait, wait, wait, um
[WATER STOPS RUNNING]
- Hey.
- Hey.
You should not be
spending time in the lobby.
Especially not to go to the bathroom.
What?
We are hiding here from a murderer.
Well, I mean, you sent me
down for snacks yesterday.
Circumstances have changed, okay?
Well, then, hey, where are you going?
I
I have to make some phone calls.
You cannot make them from here?
Okay. Oh, so you get to
just go whenever you want
and do whatever you
want, tell me nothing.
But me, I'm stuck here in this
poorly furnished shit
box sitting on my hands?
I'm protecting our family.
Okay
Look, I appreciate that secrecy,
that's your love language.
But you know that Callie
is missing even more school
and you do recall that I run a business?
You should know by now
that I got your back.
Are you going to let me help you?
I don't deserve you, you know?
- No, don't be ridiculous, no.
- Mm-mm.
Nope, you're the love of my life.
There is something that
you could do for me.
Keep an eye on our daughter?
I always I always keep an eye on her.
I mean it, Jeff.
She is really smart and
she has a lot of questions,
but for her own safety
she needs to back the fuck off.
That goes for you, too, sweetie, okay?
Hey, why don't you
[MUFFLED] order room service?
- [JEFF] Hmm.
- [SHAUNA] That's fun, right?

Misty? You fucking psycho.
Your nation thanks you for your service.
Keep an eye out for that 1099.
[DOOR CLOSES]
Hey.
God, haven't you ever
heard of a phone call?
What the hell?
I could ask you the same question.
What are you talking about?
Yeah, what are you doing here?
I'm here to look your
girlfriend in the eye
and ask her why she failed to mention
that she met with Lottie in
person on the day she died?
- What?
- You did?
So it looks like there's two
of us who would love to know
why you left that
information out the other day.
Wasn't anyone's business.
I met up with her to have
a private conversation.
It certainly doesn't
suggest that I killed her,
if that's what you're implying.
You're right. Implications
are for the timid.
Taissa, did you murder Lottie?
- Why would I?
- [MISTY] Well, you lied,
and you do have a history
of doing crazy shit
and not even knowing about it.
You think she could've
done it, don't you?
No.
See?
Besides, it's obvious whoever
sent that tape to Shauna
is the one who murdered Lottie.
Tape? What tape?

head to camp, right?
No, we go deeper.
We got to get help. We
got to use the sat phone.
- We got to call
- The broken sat phone?
Maybe I can fix it.
I mean, we can't just
keep going randomly, we'll get lost.
We got to get our supplies.
[KODI] No supplies are gonna save you.
You're gonna have to
survive on instincts.
And you wanting to go back to camp
makes me think you don't have any.
Stick with me or you're on your own!

I just need you to know that I love you.
[ELEVATOR DINGS]
I just need you to know that I love you.
[TAISSA] Shauna?
You're leaving?
What is she doing here?
She's here to help us.
Shauna, what's going on?
Okay.
[ELEVATOR DOOR CLOSES]
There was more than just what Lottie did
on that tape.
One of them recorded a message on it.
[QUIETLY] Um, for her kid.
She had a kid?
- [SIGHS] Fuck.
- No. No.
The important thing is
[SIGHS] that woman
Hannah
had a daughter.
Who somehow got hold
of a tape of what we did
and is out to punish us.
A-And you're going to
To stop her. What else?
Oh, great. I'm sensing cleanup.
I'm sorry, did I ask for your help?
Oh, not yet,
but if past is prologue, you will.
Late, and rudely.
Uh, Misty's right, Shauna.
Your track record's iffy.
What are you planning
to do to this woman?
I'm gonna sit her down
and have a gentle, reasonable
conversation with her.
[SCOFFS]
She's already tried to kill me, so
What?
My brakes?
Oh.
So now that wasn't me?
Yeah, sorry about that.
So the brakes, the freezer,
the fucking spooky phone in the toilet.
Y-You know what? Mock me all you want,
but I'm not gonna sit around
and let myself end up like Lottie!
Now, if you will please just let me
We're going with you.
What? We don't even
know where she's going.
[SIGHS] Richmond, Virginia.
Yeah. It's pretty far.
Van's right. We're coming.
And while we're at it, maybe
I can be the last person
to hear this tape.
[QUIET, TENSE MUSIC]
[HANNAH ON TAPE] And even if I am gone,
my love stays with you.
And no one can take that away.
No one.
Okay.
I love you.
There was no mention of any
offspring in her obituary.
That's because it was a teen pregnancy.
The daughter never even
had her mother's name.
I found the birth record
in Hannah's hometown, and
it wasn't too hard to find
a current address from there.
You did all that?
[SHAUNA] Yes, Misty.
I know how to google
and make phone calls.
But still
why didn't we know about
this kid in the first place?
Well, someone did.
They managed to smuggle
a tape out of there.
Gen and Melissa got
pretty close to Hannah.
[VAN] Yeah, but they're both dead.
Okay, so there are two mysteries.
One, who brought the tape
back from the wilderness,
and two, why would Hannah's daughter
wait 25 years to come
looking for revenge?
What are you getting at?
[SCOFFS] It just
doesn't quite make sense.
You accused me of murder two hours ago
and that didn't make sense.
Touché.

Would you have wanted to hear it?
Why wouldn't I want to hear it?
Because you chickened out.
Even though the universe is telling us
loud and clear what we need to do.
So I went and talked to Lottie about it.
Remember what she said
that night Natalie died?
She said It was happy with us.
Oh, God.
Please, not this again.
You're improving.

We all know you killed Lottie.
How could you say that? How
could you even think that?
[SIGHS]
[QUIETLY] There's DNA evidence.
Lottie stayed at my house, okay.
She was probably covered with my DNA.
This was collected from a location
that's indicative of a struggle.
What, like, under her nails?
Is that a confession?
No.
What about
this receipt
from your vehicle that
proves that you went
into New York City the
day that Lottie died.
What is your problem?
Van is back there dying,
and you're just sitting
out here accusing me
of murdering one of our oldest friends.
Well, it's only because it's
recently come to my attention
that you don't even know
what friendship means.
I can't fucking believe you.
And I don't believe you.
[INDISTINCT P.A. ANNOUNCEMENT]
I'm getting a Coke.
I would offer to get you something
if I weren't such a terrible friend.
[TENSE, DRAMATIC MUSIC]

[VEHICLE ENGINE STARTS]
[SCOFFS]
[MONITOR BEEPING]
I wish you would've let me help you.
This is exactly what we didn't want.
[PATIENT] Ring, ring,
motherfuckers. Ring, ring!
[NURSE] You okay, sir?
[PATIENT] Oh, the devil's calling!
[NURSE] Can I get a
hand over here please?
[PATIENT] The devil's calling you.
[SCREAMS] You can't take me!
- You can't take me! [GRUNTS]
- [NURSE] Grab his left arm.
[OVERLAPPING SHOUTING]
[PATIENT] I don't want
to go again. [SCREAMS]
Hey! I don't want to go.
I'm gonna fucking kill that guy.
Don't.
Ow. It was just an expression.
Is it?
[SIGHS] I'm sorry.
Just relax.
I'm right here with you. You see?
[LOTTIE] Take a breath.
Now what do we hear?
[GASPS]
Did you hear that?
[EERIE, SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]


Look at you.
You're afraid.
We never actually cheated death.
It was always an even trade.
What are you doing?
Why-why are you doing this? Stop it!
What are you doing?!
What are you doing?!
[DOCTOR] Heartrate's
spiking. O2 sat dropping.
Increase oxygen, please.
[MONITOR BEEPING RAPIDLY]
Don't worry. I won't
let them take your eyes.
It is you. How long has it been you?
This isn't the end for
us. You're not gonna die.
No, I don't want to talk to you, please.
I-I-I need her right now.
But I'm the one who can save you.
Save me? For what? For who? Please.
[DOCTOR] She's gonna need a transfusion.
Ma'am, do you know her blood type?
Um, O-O positive, I think.
Van. Van.
Listen to me, Van. Van!
I promise you, you are not gonna die.
[CRYING]
[MONITOR BEEPING STEADILY]
I understand everything
It's been saying to me.
Do you hear it now? Good.
If-if I close my eyes
[LABORED BREATHING]
We're gonna try again.
- Okay. Are you ready?
- [PANTING]
[SCREAMS] Stop! Stop!
[GEN] It must be barbed.
[WHIMPERING]
We're hurting her more every
time we try and pull it out.
What's the plan?
I don't care anymore. Just get it out!
I think we need to push it through.
- Okay?
- Mm-hmm.
[SCREAMS, CRYING]
Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.
Can I help?
Haven't you done enough?
Those strangers, they
were gonna ruin everything.
Go fuck your blood-dirt, Lottie.
[GRUNTS]
Ready?
Okay.
[SCREAMING]
[EERIE, TENSE MUSIC]



Hi.
I'm Hannah.
Weird time for a pillow fort.
I think we got bedbugs.
[SCRATCHING]
Huh?
Stands to reason.
This place is a dump.
Oh, yeah. [CHUCKLES]
Enjoy your vermin, Joels.
Dad, I don't think it's bedbugs.
Well, what, then? Fleas?
I think that weird things
happen sometimes when you're
trying too hard to fight
the way things actually are.
I mean, we keep telling
ourselves that Mom
is a basically good person,
and that all this bad
stuff that happened to her
couldn't be helped, but
what if she's actually a bad person?
Did Mom ever mention crossing paths
with any frog scientists
when she was out there?
Sorry, frog scientists?
In the fall of '97, two
researchers and a guide
disappeared without a
trace, less than 100 miles
from where the Yellowjackets'
plane went down.
Callie. [SCOFFS]
[SCOFFS] I mean, that's
Terrain like that?
It's very easy for someone to get lost,
and they'd never find the body.
And 100 miles, that-that's-that's
[GRUNTS] that's a long way. I mean,
incredibly unlikely that they
would've even seen each other.
But that tape that Mom got sent.
I think it's a part of
that research project.
And Mom and Tai and Van
they all knew exactly what it was.
So, what, you think your
mom and her friends
Dad.
I think we both know, deep down
they could've done it.
