Good Trouble (2019) s05e10 Episode Script
Opening Night
1
I got word from the network
that "Ferrets & Friends"
is getting canceled.
What?
I'm searching for Madison McClain.
SILAS: She left the
farm over two years ago.
I haven't heard from her since.
Where is she?
I have some information
that might help you.
Before I talk, I need you
to do something for me.
RANJIT: Let's talk about the opening.
We need to throw a launch party
that's like a a movie premiere.
It is on me.
I'm gonna pay for everything.
Are you gonna sign up
for Freestyle Roulette?
Luca, come on up.
And your opponent will be Riley.
- What's going on with you?
- Nothing.
Let's just do this.
EVAN: Mariana, why did I
go to that farm looking for you?
Because we used to be in a relationship.
I need to be able to trust you!
Just please go.

(CROWD CHEERING LOUDER)
Luca, you won the round! Congrats!
Well done.
I'm so proud of you.
Say cheese.
Yes, more of that.
Oh, this is cute!
("ALLÁ EN EL RANCHO
GRANDE" BY LOS JETS PLAYING)
Uh, no. Those go in the kitchen.
And that goes in the lounge.
Hey, man, can you grab some
of those boxes off the patio?
No can do.
Manual labor's not part
of the job description.
- DAVIA: Hi.
- Hi.
Uh, aren't you supposed
to be at rehearsal?
Yeah, I called in sick to help you out.
Well, you're the lead. Isn't
that gonna be a problem?
They have other stuff they
can rehearse without me.
Besides, helping you get ready
for the preview party is more important.
- So what can I do?
- Everything.
The The The cutlery
needs to be unpacked,
the plates are in boxes,
the chairs haven't been delivered.
- We're never gonna be ready by tomorrow.
- (CHUCKLING) Okay.
Breathe. (BREATHS DEEPLY)
- Hey, it'll all get done, okay?
- Well
It's all gonna be okay.
Okay.
Sorry, I'm a little early.
It's It's okay. No,
come in. Yeah, come in.
Um
I could've just dropped
it off at The Coterie.
(MALIKA SCOFFS)
Oh? So that's how it is?
Well, I won't let the
door hit me on the way out.
No, no. I'm sorry. (CHUCKLES)
Put that down. Put that down.
Yeah, I'm sorry, I don't
have anything to sit on.
You want something to drink?
MALIKA: No, I'm all right.
So how've you been?
- Good. Yeah. Good.
- MALIKA: Mm-hmm.
How about you?
Good.
ISAAC: Cool.
But, so, why are you moving?
Yeah, right, um change of scenery.
You know, just wanna
stare at new walls
that don't have bad memories attached.
Mm, I hope those bad
memories don't include me.
You know they don't.
Maybe I will have something
to drink. (CLEARS THROAT)
- Okay.
- No, I got it.
♪
You were in the hospital?
Yeah.
Anything serious?
I was in rehab.
So, we have a small problem.
How small?
The 50k payment
for the first six months
of lease is due tomorrow.
DENNIS: Yeah, I know. It's not a
problem. There's money in the account.
Actually, there isn't.
I, uh, took it out for the party.
You said that you were
paying for the party.
I am.
I am.
I'm just having a
temporary cash flow problem.
I mean, we had to pull
this thing together so fast.
- Then we cancel.
- We can't.
It It's all paid
for. VIPs are coming.
Dennis, this party is critical
to the success of the restaurant.
Well, there will be no restaurant
if we don't pay the lease.
Are there other people that
you can ask for the 50k?
(CHUCKLES) I've tapped
out all my resources.
You must know someone you could ask.
I don't anyone with that kinda money.
I invested 250k of my own money
to make this dream come true for you.
Time for you to step up!
We need the money. You need to find it.
(DOOR SLAMS)
There she is. Adam's mother.
Wonder how it went.
Let's find out.
I said stop!
(GUNSHOT)
JOAQUIN: Okay, I did what you asked.
I got your mother to come see you.
So what can you tell us about Madison?
Look
now that I've seen my mom,
I realize it would break her
heart if I told you what I know.
What? Whoa, whoa,
what're you talking about?
Adam, we had a deal!
No, no. Hey, you shot our friend.
He almost died.
I feel bad about that.
It was just meant to be a
warning shot to stop you.
You aimed at our backs
and pulled the trigger.
You know, and and
and if you really feel bad,
you'll help us find Madison
and stop protecting Silas.
That's what it's really
all about, isn't it?
Staying loyal to Silas.
Meanwhile, he let you
take all of the charges.
He's the real reason
you pulled that trigger.
Don't you wanna make him pay?
I'm sorry. I am.
But I can't tell you anything.
For my mother's sake.
Guards? We're done here.
N No.
I hope you rot in prison
for the rest of your life!
(INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING)
(WHIMSICAL MUSIC PLAYING)
ALICE: For everything,
there is a season.
A time to be born, a time to die,
and a time to fight
against the cancellation
of "America's Funniest
Ferrets & Friends."
We're gonna interview
people on the streets.
Fans of the show.
And kick start a
save-the-show campaign online
to pressure the network.
- Yes.
- All right. All right.
- Get your phones out.
- Okay, I got it.
- Where
- It's the red button.
Do you watch "America's
Funniest Ferrets & Friends"?
Oh, yes! I love that show!
Did you hear we might get canceled?
What! Why?
Hey, so, uh, uh, just a sec.
Um, let's see. Hold on.
Uh, okay, here we go.
Trying to get support for
the show. I'm wondering
Hmm, something's wrong here.
Let me see. Hold on.
- What can I do?
- Repost it on your socials.
- What are socials?
- No idea.
Excuse me, ma'am. I'm
just doing a small survey.
You know, I have arthritis.
Uh hmm.
Something's Oops. Damn it.
How do you feel about ferrets?
Ferrets? I'm obsessed with ferrets!
I'm a ferret fanatic!
I basically just watch ferret
videos all day on TikTok.
That's a little sad, but I'll take it!
If you love "America's
Funniest Ferrets & Friends,"
let us know it!
#saveferrets.
- Yeah!
- Yeah!
- Save us, please!
- Ferrets forever!
Please, save us. Save us!
I wish you had called me.
I mean, it's it's not your problem.
Not like that, it's
you know, just my thing to deal with.
I didn't want anybody to know.
- Does your family know?
- No.
No, it
You know, they don't
really know about therapy.
You know, that's just
not how I was raised.
I mean, we don't roll like that.
It's considered weak.
Yeah, but it's not.
I mean, getting addicted to Xanax
isn't something to be proud of.
MALIKA: Or ashamed of.
How long were you in rehab?
Three weeks.
I'm sorry.
What's the plan now for your recovery?
First, move outta here,
and then just get on with it.
You know, gotta get back to my business.
Dennis is opening a restaurant,
and the new launch
party's tomorrow night.
Everyone from The
Coterie is gonna be there.
They'd love to see you.
Will you come?
It was the first time
I've ever felt totally connected
to what I was dancing.
I'm happy to see you all lit up.
LUCA: It felt so good.
Like I was in the right place,
finally doing what I was meant to do.
That's beautiful.
Get a room.
After the party.
Now, chop-chop. Literally.
PHILLIP: Huh.
Everything looks amazing.
Oh, wow!
You've done a lot to this place.
Thanks, Dad.
And thanks for stopping by. Um
Well, it looks like you got
everything under control.
(CLEARS THROAT) Actually, I don't.
Um, some unexpected costs have come up,
and I'm gonna be
short on the lease payment
that's due tomorrow.
What do you need?
$50,000.
- (PHILIP EXHALES)
- I know it's a lot. I know.
But it would be a short-term loan only.
Thirty days max.
And I I hate to ask you.
I can absolutely do that for my son.
Especially if it's only for a month.
Give me the details.
I'll wire it to you today.
Thank you, Dad.
Yeah.
Let me show you the kitchen.
Yeah, yeah, I wanna see it.
We just added some equipment in here.
You okay?
Yeah, sorry. I
I shouldn't have lost
it on Adam like that.
No, it's it's totally okay.
Trust me, I wanna strangle him myself.
Just remember, the goal
is to bring Silas down.
(SIGHS) So what now?
(SIGHS) We talk to his mother again.
Maybe he'll tell her what he knows,
or at least she'll give
him permission to tell us.
Good idea.
(OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING)
We had such a good visit.
He asked my forgiveness for everything,
the lying and the stealing.
I don't know if I can ask him
to do something that might
get him in more trouble
than he's already in.
MARIANA: Okay.
What if this was your daughter,
and you didn't know
what happened to her?
Wouldn't you wanna know?
My sister went missing.
I didn't know where she was.
It was the worst feeling
ever. Not knowing.
Then I found out she's at the farm.
She's under the spell of Silas.
Just like your son was.
This This is Silas's fault.
He's getting away with hurting people.
Please, Mrs. Miller.
All right, I'll talk to him.
I'll tell him to tell
you everything he knows.
(PHONE VIBRATES)
Are you kidding me?
- LUCA: Hey-hey.
- Hey.
LUCA: What you looking at?
GAEL: Check this out.
Wait.
- Hold on. You did that?
- Yeah!
(CHUCKLES) No way, dude.
That's That's incredible.
- Seriously.
- Thanks, man.
It felt good to see
people enjoying my art.
Like I felt a little
less invisible, you know?
Yeah. I feel that.
Unfortunately, they painted over it, so.
(LUCA SIGHS)
Well, I'm, like, a huge fan
of the street art downtown.
And actually, when I was unhoused,
it would just give me a lot
of just hope and inspiration
- just to see it.
- GAEL: Mm.
Are you gonna do another one?
Oh, I don't know. I mean
Maybe. If I found a spot high enough
so they couldn't paint
over it so easily.
I would totally be down to help you.
I mean, if you want.
(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)
Thank you.
Hey, Mariana, I'll have that beta
feedback for you by the end of the day.
- Great. Good work.
- Great notes on the code review.
- It's working much better.
- Ah, good. Glad I could help.
Evan.
I'm back.
Back, like
back at work?
Yes.
Thank you for everything you
did while I was incapacitated,
but I can handle it from here.
Really? Your doctor said it was okay?
EVAN: It's not their call.
And I need to be back at
the helm of my company.
Especially after almost losing it.
I'm sorry that I didn't tell
you about our past sooner.
- Doctor said
- Doesn't matter.
Water under the bridge.
You can go back to Bulk Beauty now.
Take care, Mariana.
- Ladle, where's my mint?
- LADLE: Heard.
Come on! You can't hide out
in the kitchen all night.
You need to press the flesh.

(CROWD CHEERING, APPLAUDING)
So, is this the cast of the musical
I've been hearing so much
about from your lovely lead?
Yeah, she's killin' it.
Have you heard her sing?
RANJIT: I've not, but I'd love to.
Davia, why don't you sing right now?
Oh, no.
- No.
- Come on! I insist!
How about a duet?
I'd enjoy it.
RANJIT: I mean, the stage is open.
Okay, um
Sounds fun.
See? That's what I
do. I make shit happen.
Evan's back at work.
How do you feel about that?
Good. Fine.
Bullshit!
Sorry. This drink is strong.
I I'm glad that he's feeling better.
It's just
you know, if I'm not his
proxy, I'll hardly ever see him.
He still doesn't remember you?
(SIGHS) Nope.
I think I have to accept
that he probably never will.
Even if he does, we're
water under the bridge.
So
That's tough.
- I'm so sorry.
- We're sorry.
The good news is I can
come back to Bulk Beauty.
Right away.
Don't you think that you
should take a little time off first?
You've been running yourself ragged.
No, I'm I'm fine.
And I I want to work.
But there's no rush.
Why don't you take some time
to process everything that's happened?
Because there's nothing to process.
Evan's fine. It It's done.
But you really should talk to someone.
Okay, why why is everyone so
obsessed with me talking to someone?
How is wallowing in what
happened supposed to help me?
(DISTORTED CHATTER)
Mariana, just take a few weeks.
We want you back, but we want you well.
Hi, everyone.
Um, I just wanted to thank
you all for coming tonight,

Isn't the food amazing?

I, uh I didn't get a
chance to congratulate you
on winning the other day.
That's why you came here?
And I wanna know why you were so cold.
Is it because I canceled
our plans last minute?
Okay, you did not just
cancel them last minute.
You saw me cleaning the studio.
And you don't think that
I'm good enough for you.
Right?
No!
I don't think that.
I canceled because you lied to me!
You told me that you were
meeting with an agent.
What? To build yourself up?
My last boyfriend lied all the time.
He started with little things,
and then it got worse and worse.
And I am not going there again.
Okay, no. I am
I'm so sorry that I lied.
I should not have jumped to conclusions.

I'm sorry.

(DAVIA SQUEALS)
Uh, but there's something
we need to talk about.
When Malcolm and Julian dropped
by rehearsal and you were out,
it brought up a concern for them
that you might get sick
before the stage reading.
Okay, look
Look, I wasn't really sick. I just
I had to help Dennis with the opening.
I should've just told you.
Well, your absence worried them,
and now they want me to
cast an understudy for you.
An understudy?
I mean, are the guys
getting understudies too?
We have actors in the chorus
that can step in for them,
but Darla's the lead!
I mean, we need a backup
who can really step into your shoes.
Does this have anything
to do with the producers
not wanting me in the first place?
Not at all.
Just think of this as
an insurance policy.
You're still our Darla.

But then I tried to call her
back and she didn't answer.
Wonder what she wanted to talk about.
I don't know.
Uh, so Evan is back at Speckulate,

Hello, Mariana.
I got word from the network
that "Ferrets & Friends"
is getting canceled.
What?
I'm searching for Madison McClain.
SILAS: She left the
farm over two years ago.
I haven't heard from her since.
Where is she?
I have some information
that might help you.
Before I talk, I need you
to do something for me.
RANJIT: Let's talk about the opening.
We need to throw a launch party
that's like a a movie premiere.
It is on me.
I'm gonna pay for everything.
Are you gonna sign up
for Freestyle Roulette?
Luca, come on up.
And your opponent will be Riley.
- What's going on with you?
- Nothing.
Let's just do this.
EVAN: Mariana, why did I
go to that farm looking for you?
Because we used to be in a relationship.
I need to be able to trust you!
Just please go.
