Search Party (2016) s05e08 Episode Script
Song of Songs
Three days later,
the bus continues to burn bright
with an unusual range of colors
due to the hazardous pairing
of chemicals in the explosion.
- Hi, mom.
- Oh, Drew, honey.
It's just awful.
I'm so sorry.
All those friends of yours just burning to a crisp.
Yeah, thanks, Mom.
The death of Dory Sief and her band of popular followers Dude, dude, dude, dude, you could have burned alive.
You could still be burning alive just like, "Ahh! Ahh!" Reid, Reid, be sensitive! Everyone he knows is dead and he just lost his job.
Drew, honey, why don't you come home? You have nothing to live for anymore.
That's when people come home.
No, Drew can't come home.
We always have to be respectful of his sadness.
It sucks.
If Drew comes home, I'll kill myself.
- Stop.
- Ow! Son, it's time to come home.
Why don't you just rent a car and buy a bunch of granola bars and take a long, slow drive to Chicago? That's what I did when I was your age and all my friends died.
Yeah, I'll think about it, Dad.
Thanks.
I gotta go, though, so bye.
Bye.
Everybody be careful.
There might still be chemical activity.
I don't see any remains.
Could it have dissolved their bodies completely? I wouldn't think so.
Oh, shit.
Don't let this leak.
If they know we know they're not dead, they'll be harder to catch.
- Oh, good job, Pepper.
- Thank you.
Hi.
Oh, my God, hi.
Oh, my God, you all smell awful.
I know.
Sorry.
How was it? We almost didn't make it.
There's snacks, guys.
And hi, everyone.
- Everyone get a snack.
- I'm so hungry.
- How many days has it been? - Three.
- Wait, did everything change? - Who's famous now? We all need to get on antibiotics immediately.
Portia, you swallowed so much poo.
Good job, Drew.
Thanks.
There he is, John Halwood.
The man who impregnates you with a child that will bring about the end of the world.
But he's married.
Ugh.
No, not the dad.
The son.
Smug little asshole.
That's a child.
In the year 2041, when he's 30, he travels back in time to the year 2024 and he mates with you.
Oh, okay, so he has access to the time meridian.
Must be nice.
Honey, you feel like those women are staring at us? Which? Oh, yeah.
Kinda seem like it, doesn't it? Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Okay, she's coming over here.
John, it's me, Chantal.
Excuse me, how do you know our son? This has nothing to do with you all.
This is between me and my husband.
Husband? Well, friends with benefits, at the very least.
- What? - Jesus Christ, lady.
Excuse me.
You may try to manipulate me.
You may try to charm my pants off.
You may think I'm just a vessel for your disgusting plan, but guess what.
I'm strong.
So do yourself a favor and don't even try and seduce me in 2024.
Okay, honey, call the police right now.
Oh, the police.
They're not gonna do anything other than gnaw on your puny brain, sweetie.
Welcome to reality.
- Look at him.
- He doesn't give a shit.
I've got a gun in this bag.
Take it.
Do it, you're a perfect shot.
End this now.
- Oh, God.
- Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
No.
No.
He isn't worth it.
Let's just get out of here.
You know, but when you come for me, and you will, I'll be ready.
You bet.
- What was that? - Well, you tell me, young man.
Yeah, where do you know that lady from? They've landed.
Oh, it is so good to see you.
Thank you so much for having my family.
Oh, well, let's get y'all showered - Yeah.
- And then do hugs.
You're all welcome to stay for as long as you like.
Thank you.
I smell so bad.
- Enjoy.
- So good.
- Thank you.
- Joy.
- Have you had this before? - Yes, dig in.
Dig in.
Oh, you look like people who haven't eaten in three days.
Dory, have more lentils, girl.
You deserve it.
Hey, so, um So the pills are getting more and more valuable, right? Exactly.
Well, let me know if you need any help keeping them safe.
I'd love to kind of head up, you know, protecting them.
I'd love to be in charge of that it'd be an honor.
I think it's best if I'm the only one who knows where they are.
It's not that I don't trust you.
It's just that a lot of people are gonna be after this.
Right.
Mm-hmm.
That's so smart.
That's so smart.
But are they in the house? 'Cause I noticed they weren't in the car.
I looked in the car and I didn't see 'em anywhere.
So what's the next step in the revolution? Well, we're gonna get a good night's sleep.
Yeah.
And then tomorrow, we're gonna take the pills.
Are you saying that tomorrow, we're finally gonna become enlightened? Yes, we all are.
And then we're gonna distribute the rest to everybody we can, and the world will see that it is needed.
- Oh, my God.
- Yes! Oh, my God.
- Oh, wow.
- I'm, like, so excited.
I'm scared too.
It does feel scary just to jump right in, yeah.
I'm obsessed with you, I really am.
- And it's perfect.
- It's right before the fall.
Exactly.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- You found me.
- I found you.
When I look at the stars, I see you, Drew.
Everything has led to this moment.
In a way, I think I had to sit and stew in doubt so I could really understand what it's like to commit to something greater than myself.
Yeah.
To have and to know complete faith.
Now that I'm on this side, I feel so free.
I'm not gonna question anything anymore.
- Isn't that incredible? - Yeah.
I mean, the journey that it's taken for us to get here.
I believe I'm exactly where I should be.
I was put on this earth to be by your side, Dory.
It's always been about you.
Always.
That's cool though.
Ooh.
Sorry.
Yeah, I just got a It's still stuck.
I'll be right back.
Hi, Portia.
Hi.
You looked so beautiful tonight.
Aww.
My selfishness is showing.
- Is the bathroom - I think it was yeah.
- Hey.
Hey.
- Hey.
I, um I literally can't be left out of this any longer.
It actually really hurts my feelings, so I just wanna do this, get it over with, right? - Okay.
- Yeah.
If that's how you wanna express your love.
It so is, Dory.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Mm.
- Okay.
- Okay.
We'll have the alabaster game hen wagyu tenderloin with heirloom carrot puree, candied lobster roulade, organic vegan turducken, and we'll do a round of martinis.
Should we also do a bottle of champagne? Yes, a few, and I'll take a bottle just for myself to feel included.
You see, I just had my face diamond lifted this morning, and I I do want to feel included.
So we'll do a few of your absolute best.
The stuff you hide away until the richest people show up.
Money is no issue for us.
All right.
Very good.
And do you carry Hot Baby? Oh, the hot sauce just for babies? I don't think we do.
But I am familiar with it.
Well, you should.
I took acid and invented it.
I made this family rich off of it.
I'll have a case overnighted to the restaurant.
Really, it's no trouble.
Are you jealous that my husband is the inventor of Hot Baby? I am.
I'll be right back with your drinks.
- What in the world? - Who is Chantal with? - Turn me.
- Katherine, I can't see.
- Hello, everyone.
- Long time no see.
Who is this? This is Liquorice Montague, and she's a genius.
- Ah, fellow genius.
- Are you an inventor like I am? I'm here actually because I want your blessing on a very pressing issue.
Is that so? I'm asking for your daughter's hand in marriage.
- Since when are you a lesbian? - Shut up, Katherine.
This is much bigger than that.
Your daughter Chantal is going to give birth to the man who brings about the end of the world.
I'm sorry what? And the only way to stop her from mating with the father is to marry her so that she does not stray.
I tried to kill the father, but he's a child.
- I couldn't do it.
- Chantal, this is scaring me.
- Oh, stop it.
- He's only a child right now.
He'll be a man in a couple of years because he's gonna travel back in time from the future.
I wouldn't have sex with a child, Katherine.
Don't be insane.
This is confounding.
As you can see, this is time sensitive.
And I do not think it's right to move forward without your blessing, so do I have your blessing? I-I think it's up to Ted.
Ted makes all the big decisions for us now.
Well, all I know is, I've never seen Chantal happier.
So today's the day.
But before we take the pill, we have one last journey to go on together.
Before I died, I had a reckoning.
I was at an impasse with myself.
My ego had driven me to a place of such despair.
I was afraid to let go of my ego because it was my armor.
And I believe that is the space that you are all in now.
So what we are going to experience today Is a transformation of the ego.
And it's going to feel like pain.
But here's the thing: when you really investigate the pain You learn that what you are experiencing is actually the overwhelming support of love.
- Wow.
- So everybody lie down.
Put your hands by your side facing up.
And gently close your eyes.
And this is Dr.
Benny Balthazar? So the cause of death was ruled as a suicide as she jumped out of a window several stories up.
But the way the body's decomposing you gotta take a look yourself.
- Oh, good God.
- Yuck.
I know.
Imagine how I feel.
I haven't been able to talk about it with anyone.
Breathing in and breathing out.
Each breath in making you feel lighter and lighter Until you feel so light that you begin to raise off the ground.
You begin to feel your body separating from the ground.
Each breath in raising you closer to the sky, closer to the tapestry of the universe.
Breathing in love and lightness.
Breathing out any and all worldly attachments.
And then you notice a golden light shining from the top of your head.
Allow it to grow, filling the space above you and below you.
Allow it to flow all over your body, encompassing you.
Allow your golden light to mix with the light of those around you.
Flowing in a collective energy that reminds you of your deepest truth.
That we are all one.
Now quicken your breath.
Two inhales through the mouth and one out, like this.
Yes, yes, yes, keep breathing like that to create heat and energy.
Bring to the surface that which no longer serves you.
Your wrath, your envy, your pride.
Anything that you will not be taking with you on your journey back to love.
Bring it forward as we release all of our old selves in a scream from the depths of our souls in three, two, one.
You are now ready to take the pill.
So what's strange is that the color patterns started at the area of her wound and then dispersed outward from there.
- Wound? - Here.
- That's not a wound.
- It's a bite.
- I know.
I know it's a bite.
- I'm just it is also a wound.
Based on the blood pooling and rectal decomposition, I can't help but think that this person died before their recorded time of death.
So you think they were dead before they fell out the window? Hey, I just run the numbers.
I wonder if there's a place to get breakfast foods even though it's lunchtime.
- I don't know.
- I'm more of a lunch guy.
- Yeah.
- Hold up, I forgot my camera.
Wow.
Wow.
Mmm-mmm.
Mm-hmm.
This shit is happening.
Holy shit, it's happening.
I'm finally, like, truly, deeply happy! Oh, my God, I feel like I can feel my infinite soul and my body all being one.
- Can you believe it? - Oh, isn't it incredible? This is what I've been telling you about.
I love you.
I-I love everybody here.
I'm sorry, are they trying to have an orgy? Is that what that is? They're just being love, El.
It's so exhilarating.
Oh, don't you feel it? Yeah, I actually have to tell you something.
Tell me.
I can't be bruised by words anymore.
Mm-hmm.
I switched the pills.
What? Switched the pills.
No one is high off of enlightenment right now.
Everyone just ate a jelly bean.
It's fake, Porshe.
Look, look, look.
These are the real pills.
No, but I feel changed.
Right, well, don't you think it's cool that you could feel that way from just eating a jelly bean? Why would you do that? Because someone in my life needs them, and it's the only way I can fix a very sensitive family matter.
And please don't tell Dory, okay? She doesn't know.
I cannot believe you! Fuck.
I feel like I can fly.
Like I'm every person who's ever lived since the beginning of time soaring through the universe at the speed of light.
Ah, Drew, this is how it's supposed to be.
Yeah.
And I just want to share it with as many people as possible.
Will you come with me? - Right now? - I just I can't wait.
- Yeah, let's go.
- Yeah? Let's go! Let's go, let's go! Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
There are only eight pills in here.
Someone must have taken a real one.
Did the janitor come in and take the body away? There's no one else in the building.
It's just us.
You sure? Hello? Do you see anyone back there? Oh, God! Fuck.
Hey, babe, you okay? Oh, God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, no.
She's really sick.
Help! Help! - Mick, call an ambulance! - Just breathe, sweetie.
We're gonna get you some help.
Does anybody have any water? Okay, good.
- Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
- No, no, no, no, no, no! Get off.
Get off her.
- Hi, mom.
- Oh, Drew, honey.
It's just awful.
I'm so sorry.
All those friends of yours just burning to a crisp.
