(???)

TOM: (On radio)
Now, they're gonna be out there
cleaning up

for the next several days,
folks.

The governor has declared
a state of emergency

as we expect heavy flooding
and high winds

throughout the night.

Local authorities
are urging everyone

to stay inside.

For More details on the impact
on the ground,

let's throw it over to Mia
in the newsroom.

- Mia.
- MIA: Thank you, Tom.

The National Weather Service
has confirmed a category 3

at landfall with sustained winds
of 100 Miles per hour

and gusts up to 130 in some areas of Jefferies County,

in addition to widespread
power outages.

Emergency services
are expecting extensive damage

over the next eight hours.

TOM: (On radio)
And we're getting reports
of closures of parts

of Interstate 84, 95,
and the Merritt.

You know what?

Why don't you just stay
off the roads entirely?

(Thunder rumbling)

TOM: (On radio)
I don't know how long we're gonna be able

to stay on the air.

Keep yourself safe inside
and just get through the night.

(Indistinct radio chatter
in background)

(Wind howling)

(Door alarm beeps)

(Amy grunting)

AMY:
God damn, Jesus Christ!

Come on, close the door.

Get on in here.

Ern, you got the first-aid kit?

What all you do this time?

Tried to swat the Motherfucker,
but he disappeared.

Just My luck.

Was it that raccoon again?

That little dumpster bitch!

Well, I don't know,
this thing was flyin'.

- I don't know what it was.
- Flying?

Huh.

That's not good.

God damn.

You should uh-- you should
really get that checked out.

If it was flying,
it Might've been a--

- I'M fine, I'M fine.
- You feel hot?

- Uh, headachey?
- No, nothing.

'Cause if it was flying,
it Might have been a bat.

And if you got bit by a bat,
you could have rabies.

(Coughing)

- You alright?
- (Amy coughs)

I'M not good with these.

Why don't you let Me get you
to a doctor?

There's that walk-in
a few Miles out.

You know, we couldn't
even if I wanted to.

Tree fell down halfway
up the access road,

it took out
all the streetlights.

I had to walk the rest
of the way here.

I got a big truck.

Whatever it is, it's gonna have
to wait until sunrise.

Never Missed a show.

Not gonna start now.

Bob wants to see you
in his office.

SIENNA:
He did not.

- You're kidding.
- Hand to God, sweetheart.

Hand to God.

- I can't believe--
- Amazing.

Uh, Amy, come in.

Come in.

Cutting it kind of close,
don't you think?

Have you looked out the window?

Can't say I have.

Got too good a view right here.

SIENNA: (Chuckling)
Stop it, Robert.

Please, sweetheart,
call Me "Bob".

- Bob.
- Robert.

Amy, this is Sienna Walker.

She's from...

UC Berkeley.

I just finished up My Master's

and I came home
to take care of mom.

UM...

I grew up listening to you.

I'M a big fan.

- Nice.
- Yeah.

ROBERT:
She's gonna be your shadow
tonight.

Make sure you show her
the ropes.

I-- I don't wanna impose, or--

ROBERT:
Oh, nonsense.

She'd love to.

I'M sorry, what are you?

Well, I'M coming on as a sub.

Mr. Collins came in on--

- Bob.
- Bob--

Came on Career Day
when I was a senior at Carrigan,

and he gave Me his card,
and told Me to reach out

when I entered the real world,
so--

(Chuckles)

Here I am.

Lovely.

Yeah, it really is.

You know, it's a scary time,

so it's just nice
to have somebody there

while you're transitioning.

ROBERT:
Well, what can I say?

I've Made a career-- nay,

a life out of seeing things
in people.

- Like I did with you, Amy.
- HMM.

It's My gift.

(Chuckling)

If you'll excuse Me,
I'M gonna head

to the ladies' room
freshen up.

ROBERT:
Good idea,
Amy, why don't you tag along?

You're looking a touch pale.

AMY:
That's alright, thanks.

I just have a face for radio.

Oh, stop!

You're beautiful.

And you've got a show
in a few Minutes, so...

- You're fucking her.
- Amy!

AMY:
Oh, come on!

I remember being her age.

ROBERT:
Do you?

It was a while ago.

Cut the bullshit.

The fact that you have that
perception of Me is fra--

Oh, please, Robert!

Late-night office rendezvous,
brandies, vinyl.

"Call Me 'Bob'."

Nothing ever changes with you.

Oh, come on, Amy.

It's all harmless flirtation.

It wasn't then
and it's not now.

You loved it
when it was your turn.

Play nice.

You have a show.

AARON: (On Mic):
You know, that's what I like
about you, Amy.

You do your shit old school.

When did all this become
old school?

AARON: (On Mic):
Decade ago.

At least.

Go to hell.

Pickin' up out there, yeah?

AMY:
HMM.

Never seen a storm this bad.

We're stuck in here
for the night.

AARON: (On Mic):
Fine by Me.

Got nowhere to be.

What about that girl?

AARON: (On Mic):
Which one?

The redhead.

Which one?

(Laughing)

You just Met her!

And she's gone.

Long gone.

AMY:
They come and they go.

Hey, I just know what I like.

What do we think
of the new chick?

AARON: (On Mic):
Who you talkin' about?
Bob's new piece of ass?

(Sighing)
Somebody else thinks it, too!

I Mean, Amy, you gotta be blind
as a bat to not see that shit.

She does have credentials,
though.

Yeah.

But she's no Amy Marlowe.

(Indistinct lyrics)

AARON: (On Mic):
You alright, Ames?

MM, I just didn't have dinner
tonight.

You want a bite?

- Garlic noodle.
- Blagh.

Doesn't sit well with Me.

(Indistinct lyrics)

(Wind howling)

(Thunder rumbles in distance)

Goddammit!

(Knock on door)

You still got your sweet tooth,
yeah?

You wanna start
with call-ins tonight?

- Call-ins?
- AARON: Yeah.

We haven't done that in years.

Thought it Might be nice
to revive a classic.

Any reason why?

AARON:
Always was My favorite part
of the show.

My mom used to play the radio
while I fell asleep

and usually she'd turn it off
once I conked out,

but sometimes she'd forget.

And I'd wake up
and there you were.

You know,
whenever I heard your voice,

I knew it was so far past
My bedtime.

It felt like I was gettin' away
with something.

Why the sudden nostalgia?

You know,
I actually called you once.

- No.
- AARON: Yeah.

I Must've been
8 or 9 years old.

Topic of discussion--

(Takes a deep breath)

Dealing with change.

(Scoffs)

What the hell
does a 9-year-old know

about dealing with change,
yeah?

(Scoffs)

I'd say a lot.

Yeah.

That's what you said then, too.

What else did I say to you?

Uh, incoming.

(Indistinct lyrics
in background)

It's been really great working
with you, Amy.

SIENNA:
I'M so sorry.

UM, where do you want Me?

Oh, the fuck out of My studio.

- Uh, sorry?
- Uh, you can sit there.

You know Aaron.

- AARON: Hi.
- Yeah.

AARON:
Uh, 90 seconds, Amy.

You know, I've got to say
it is such an honor

to watch you do your show
tonight.

(Amy grunts)

Uh, are you alright?

- Fuck.
- Jesus, what happened?

Oh.

Oh.

- Jesus!
- Fuck.

Hey, um, if you--
if you need a Minute,

I can cover the beginning
of the show.

Yeah, you would love that,
wouldn't you?

SIENNA:
What?

UM, no.

I Mean I think
you're really bleeding.

- No, I'M fine!
- It's bad.

I'M fine, okay?

(Grunts)

And look, I'M just gonna say it,
alright?

You and Bob...

Listen, when I first started
here, okay--

SIENNA:
I know.

I didn't realize it then, but--

Look, I know what you're trying
to do, but--

AMY:
You don't realize it now.

You've got blinders on,
that's all I'M saying.

I'M not stupid.

I know you're not stupid,
Miss UC Berkeley.

I'M just trying to give you
some perspective, okay?

Because when I was your age--

My age?

AMY (O/S)
Yes, when I was your age,
I Made a lot of Mistakes.

And I'M just here to tell you

it's really not worth
your while.

Do you honestly think
I'M bangin' Bob?

(Indistinct lyrics)

Look, you May have had to sleep
with him

in order to lock down this job,

but I only had to Make him
think that I wanted to.

You are such a little girl.

You really hate that, don't you?

10 seconds, Amy.

You swan into My studio
and don't think you own it.

Here's the tea, Amy.

I am the one who convinced Bob
to give you one last show.

As a courtesy.

I Mean, you were really
never My cup of kombucha,

but My parents always really
did have such a soft spot

for you, so...

VOICEOVER: (On radio):
...at--

- 10 Minutes to Midnight.
- You're welcome.

VOICEOVER: (On radio):
? 10 Minutes ?

? 10 Minutes to Midnight ?

? 10 Minutes to Midnight ?

And it's 10 Minutes to Midnight.

I'M Amy Marlowe.

AARON:
Keep breathing, Ames.

(Takes a deep breath)

You know, storms like this,

they always Make Me
a little introspective

and I thought tonight
I'd like to bring back

an old favorite, "Ask Amy".

If you're Meeting
some challenges,

if you need a little guidance,
give us a call.

509-152-WLST.

Now, before those lines
start lighting up,

I want you to Meet My co-host
for the night, Sienna Walters!

Walker, hi.

Sienna is a recent graduate
of UC Berkeley

and she's here to take My job.

Line 1.

Hello, caller.

What's your problem?

CALLER 1: (On phone)
Oh, uh, hi.

I-- I just dumped My girlfriend,
but--

Aw!

CALLER 1: (On phone)
I'M having second thoughts.

Sounds like it's on you, caller.

CALLER 1: (On phone)
What?

- No, lo-- look--
- Yeah.

You're having some arguments,
and a dry spell--

CALLER 1: (On phone)
Some troubles.

And irreconcilable differences.

CALLER 1: (On phone)
We were just arguing.

I tell you what,
let's get Sienna's hot take.

CALLER 1: (On phone)
Who?

AMY:
Come on, speak up.

Use your radio voice.

Uh--
(Scoffs)

I think I need More details.

AMY:
I think it's pretty cut and dry.

CALLER 1: (On phone)
Come on, are you serious
right now?

Really, caller.

I think
you're over complicating things.

Aaron, patch the next one
through.

CALLER 1: (On phone)
Wait, wait--

CALLER 2: (On phone)
I'M a little nervous.

Oh, don't be nervous.

It's just your old Auntie Amy.

What's your issue?

CALLER 2: (On phone)
Well, I've just been a listener
for the longest time, Amy--

And you wanted to call
and tell Me

how Much the show Means to you.

CALLER 2: (On phone)
Yeah.

And how your pathetic
little townie life

wouldn't have any significance
without Me?

CALLER 2: (On phone)
Huh?

- AM I close?
- CALLER 2: (On phone) What?

Next!

(Exhaling)

You know, caller number 3,
I wanna do a something

a little different with you.

- CALLER 3: (On phone) Uh...
- Okay?

I'M gonna ask you the question.

Now, if you had a time Machine,

and you could go back
and do it all again, would you?

CALLER 3: (On phone)
Well, actually, Amy--

Because I haven't gotten up
with the sun

- for the last 30 years.
- CALLER 3: (On phone) Great.

And what the fuck
has it gotten Me?

What's My prize?

I'M sitting
in a dilapidated studio

with Sienna fucking Walker.

I could be your Mother!

I Mean I was in My 20s
when you were born,

for God's sakes!

I wouldn't even have been
a teen mom,

I would've been a real mom!

I-- I really think that uh, we--

- AMY: You think.
- We could take a break.

I'M glad you think.

It's important you think,
because that Means

you're not just legs and tits.

Amy, relax.

AMY:
That whole idea has just
bathed Me in relief.

I don't actually think
that that's--

But you know what?
You're absolutely right.

You're right.

It is not about us,
it is about the caller.

And if there's one takeaway
for you tonight, caller,

it's gonna be this.

Oh, that's good, Amy,
just relax.

At the end of the day,
your career--

nay your entire fucking life
is based solely

on the Mercurial tastes
of a single

unqualified fucking executive--

CALLER 3: (On phone)
Okay.

And that, as Sienna Walker
would say, is the tea.

Goodnight.

Good luck.

Goodbye.

(Indistinct lyrics)

What the fuck was that?

What the fuck is this?

This is exactly the reason.

- This is it.
- Spare Me the bullshit!

Three decades, not one Meltdown,
not one slip-up!

- SIENNA: I actually think--
- You can go the fuck to hell!

SIENNA:
...Misunderstanding.

Out of all the interns that
you've had coming in and out

of this place the whole time,

she Must lick your balls
just right.

Amy!

You need to teach Me
your technique,

because that's something
I'M gonna need

when I'M on the hunt tomorrow!

Amy, I have nothing but respect
for you and--

Amy, alright.

You-- you suck My asshole,
you fucking cunt!

Amy, come on!
Come on!

- Amy, I--
- (Grunting)

(Screaming)

- Amy.
- (Grunting)

- ROBERT: Are you alright?
- (Screaming)

(Indistinct lyrics)

(Sienna grunting)

ROBERT:
What happened?

Let Me see, let Me see.

Come on, let Me see.

(Sienna grunting)

SIENNS:
Oh God.

Oh God.

ROBERT:
I'll-- I-- I'll be right back.

I'M getting first-aid.

(Grunting)

(Taking deep breaths)

ROBERT: (Echoing)
Amy, why don't you tag along?

You're looking a touch pale.

Pale.

Why?

That's not good.

(Grunting)

(Retching)

AARON: (Echoing):
You alright, Ames?

AMY: (Echoing)
MM, I just didn't have dinner
tonight.

(Sniffing)

(Munching)

(???)

(Taking deep breaths)

(Grunting)

Oh fuck.

(Takes a deep breath)

(???)

ROBERT:
Amy?

Amy.

Amy.

(???)

ROBERT:
Amy.

A word in My office
when you get a Moment?

Bit of a pickle, huh, Amy?

I don't know what came over Me.

I've been doing this
for a long time,

but I have to say
I've never seen anyone

literally try to bite
someone’s head off.

It was batshit crazy, I know.

How do you think
I should play this?

Seriously, Amy,
what would you do

if you were in My position?

Fire Me.

(Robert chuckling)

It was always gonna end
this way.

How do you Mean?

I was hired to get fired.

It's radio.

(Scoffs)
Well--

If you knew all that, Amy,
then why Make such a fuss?

We had such a nice little
sunrise farewell party planned.

Red velvet cake.

Your favorite.

(Wind howling)

(Clock ticking)

So how do you see
this playing out?

Oh, that is the question,
isn't it, Amy?

(Grunting)

30 years.

(Sobbing)

My reputation.

Gone.

In an instant.

(Amy sobbing)

Does that scare you, Amy?

Sunrise?

(Sobbing)

Well, as fate would have it,

solar flares have had us
grappling with intermittent

dead air for the better part
of the day, including now.

So luckily for you,
Most listeners Missed

the latter half
of your little tirade.

We anticipate having you
back on the air within the hour.

(Sighing)

Of course, there's still
the Matter of the savage assault

on Miss Walker.

A Matter that I'M certain is
weighing on you quite heavily.

And I know you May find
this frustrating,

but I'M gonna have to answer
your question

with one of My own,

as the onus for fixing
this situation is on you.

And you alone.

So I ask you, Amy,

how are you gonna Make this
right?

How are you gonna Make it right?

Amy?

(Chuckling)

Lost you there for a second,
kiddo.

(Amy sighs)

Guess the solar flares
are Messing

with your brain waves too, huh?

(Taking deep breaths)

Well, you've got all night
to figure it out.

(???)

You'll loop back.

(Chuckling)

Good talk.

(Chuckling)

Oh.

(Sienna grunting)

AARON:
Okay, can I see it?

Well, I-- I gotta be able to look at it if I'M to uh...

Can I just see it?

(Sienna grunting)

AARON:
Okay, okay, okay, okay,

I need to find something
to clean that.

- Just uh--
- (Sienna grunting)

AARON:
Okay, I need to find something
to clean that.

- SIENNA: Hey, hurry up.
- AARON: Hold on, one second.

Oh, fuck Me.

(Sienna sobbing)

AARON:
Uh, fuck Me.

Hydrogen peroxide.

Topical solution.

(Sobbing)

- (Grunting)
- Sorry, sorry.

- (Sienna grunting)
- AARON: I'M-- I'M sorry.

I'M sorry.

Jesus, just give it to Me.

(Grunting)

Sienna, look, I'M really sorry.

I don't know what the fuck
came over her tonight.

(Grunting)

No, just she got one foot
in the grave,

that's what fucking
came over her.

What's that supposed to Mean?

She's washed up.

She's finished
and she fucking knows it.

What's that saying about grief?

(Taking deep breaths)

The stages of grief.

UM, anger.

- Yeah, exactly.
- Denial.

It's fucking textbook.

(Grunting)

(Amy gasps)

(Grunting)

(Amy taking deep breaths)

(???)

ERNIE:
How's it going there, Amy?

Change your Mind
about that walk-in?

Ernie, it's locked.

Mm Hmm.

Uh, well, open it.

No can do, Amy.

Ernie, why is the door locked?

Standard protocol
for a storm like this.

Got to keep everybody safe.

Ernie, I've got to get
out of here.

I'M afraid it's far too late
for that, Amy.

We're oscillating
between a category 2

and category 3 hurricane here.

That Means FLP,
full lockdown procedure.

(Taking deep breaths)

Say, you don't look so good.

Let Me ask you this, Amy.

Have you been experiencing

any sort of excessive
salivation?

I only ask because of your earlier difficulty swallowing

that aspirin earlier
and as I'M sure

you already know
or at least suspect,

excessive salivation
and difficulty swallowing

are both symptoms of rabies.

(Taking deep breaths)

Ernie, I'M fine.

Why don't you take a drink then?

Wet your whistle.

I don't want that shit.

You don't have any sudden
and inexplicable aversion

to water now, do you, Amy?

Because if you do,
that's rabies.

Ernie, are you gonna let Me
out of here or not?

I've gotta get out of here,
let Me out of here, oh!

Let's think this through, Amy.

If you do have hydrophobia,

you're not gonna wanna go out
in this torrential rainstorm.

Jesus fucking Christ!

Hope you washed your wound
with soap and water.

(Taking deep breaths)

You know, I always wondered
why they put the obits

next to the funny pages.

You got any idea, Amy?

(Taking deep breaths)

Ernie, I don't know
what the fuck is goin' on.

ERNIE:
Yeah.

Me neither.

(Chuckling)

5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

(???)

YOUNG ROBERT:
Amy.

Real excited for you tonight,
kiddo.

Robert.

(Chuckles)

How Many times do I have
to tell you, Amy, call Me--

Bob.

(Indistinct radio chatter
in background)

Sorry.

Sorry.

Don't be sorry.

A pretty girl like you shouldn't
have the word "sorry"

in her vocabulary.

Take a breath.

You still got five Minutes.

I just-- I get into My own head sometimes.

(Chuckling)

YOUNG
Well, lucky for you.

I've got the antidote.

I don't think I should drink
before a show.

I hear the boss is cool with it.

(Smacks lips)

Your turn.

(Sighing)

(Chuckling)

Good, right?

It's good.

Amy Marlowe.

Ten Minutes to Midnight.

It's got a bit of a ring to it,
huh?

I've been chewing on it a while.

It shows.

You know, Most other jocks
would start

right at the top of the hour.

I don't think you ever told Me
why you wanted the extra 10?

I don't know how Much
really changes day to day,

but I know something does.

And I kinda like the idea
of being with people

during that Moment
of transition.

HMM.

You playin' this tonight?

Plan to.

You know,
I've never heard this one.

Robert, I don't know
that I have Much time for this.

You know, I see something
in you, Amy.

This show could be something.

You could be something.

Man, last night was--

Last night was a Mistake.

A tease.

AM I right or am I right?

I know.

It's new.

It's all new.

All of this.

But it wasn't a Mistake.

Let people say what they want.

Let people think
what they think.

We're discreet, you and Me.

We're professionals.

Yes?

You are My new golden girl,
Amy Marlowe.

Which is why I got you this.

Bob.

Now, I Myself don't subscribe

to the whole angel/devil thing,

and truth be told, I don't know
where you stand either.

But I saw you talking
to yourself

before your interviews.

Figured you Might be praying.

And in the event
anyone's listening.

Dance with Me.

Oh.

(Chuckles)

You still got two Minutes, Amy.

Dance with Me.

I have a show.

(Chuckling)

(???)

(Kissing)

We'll loop back.

Good talk.

(???)

5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

(Grunting)

(Taking deep breaths)

(???)

(Growling)

(Screaming)

Golden girl.

Get away from Me!

Get away from Me!

- (Laughing)
- (Screaming)

- Whoa, whoa, Amy!
- (Screaming)

- He's under there.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

He's under there,
he was coming after Me.

Hey, hey, hey, hey,
hey, look at Me, look.

- He's was gonna try to kill Me.
- Hey, hey.

- He's was gonna try to kill Me.
- Hey, hey.

It's just one of those nights,
okay?

Oh, Aaron.

Oh, Aaron.

You okay.

Oh.

- You're alright.
- I saw something.

(Taking deep breaths)

There should have never been
a night like this one.

Oh fuck.

Is this how you rolled back
in the day?

Punk rock Amy?

Take no prisoners?

- (Grunting)
- (Chuckling)

Shut up, Aaron.

(Taking deep breaths)

Look, Ames, I-- I know
she's kind of a bitch.

But that's just Sienna,
she's always like that.

- Wait, what?
- I'M just sayin'.

I wouldn't take it personally,

'cause in My experience,
Sienna is a bitch.

You know her?

Well, she's been in a couple
of times this week.

Don't you bullshit Me.

(Chuckles)

Alright,
what do you want Me to say?

I Mean she was a skank,

she swiped right on
or something?

Yo, Amy, it is not like that.

We went to high school together,
okay?

- Oh fuck, Jesus fucking Christ.
- What?

It doesn't Matter!

Yes, it does Matter.

Did you recommend her?

Oh, Amy, no.

- Hey.
- Why didn't you t--

She talked to Bob.

He asked Me to show her around,
that's My fucking job.

I haven't seen her
since high school.

Why didn't you tell Me?

- Why didn't you--
- Amy.

- Warn Me.
- Listen.

(Takes a deep breath)

Look, I-- I wanted to pretend
like this wasn't changing.

If you would've known
what's goin' on,

I wouldn't have been able
to do that.

I would've lost you.

Bullshit excuse.

Bullshit excuse.

Bullshit excuse.

I know that
this is really hard for you.

Aaron, you are a child.

You have no way
of understanding.

Not what you said to Me

You could've told Me.

Maybe.

You should talk to her.

Oh, fat fuckin' chance.

Amy, that's what you do,
alright?

You talk to people.

You're good at it.

You see them
even when they're invisible.

And you should know
soMething's--

SoMething's goin' on
with Sienna.

- What?
- Somethin's happening.

I don't know.

She won't show Me her face.

Her face?

I bit her--
I bit her on her wrist.

I know.

She still won't show Me.

I think you're the only person
she'll talk to.

Oh, Aaron, goddammit.

Hey, hey.

Where is she?

(Door opens)

SIENNA:
Close the door.

(Sienna humming)

(Door shuts)

Aaron sent Me to check on you.

Why a bite?

A slap or a shove
or spitting on Me even.

(Chuckling)

But a bite?

That's the Most unexpected thing
you've done in years.

(Chuckling)

Finally something fresh.

He said something was happening
with you.

(???)

AMY:
Oh God.

Sienna, you look fine.

You really don't see it.

It's dark in here.

I can turn the light on.

You tried that before.

Remember?

Look, I came here,
because I wanted to--

Apologize?

Yeah, it's obvious.

I can hear your heart ticking
from here.

(Heart beating)

Why don't you just let Me do it?

Ugh, it Must be terrible.

Knowing that you dug
your own grave

and now the Maggots
don't even want

what's left of you.

If it's so awful,
what are you doing here?

18 Months.

Long enough so that
My commitment isn't called

into question and short enough
so that I don't end up like you.

Oh.

(Taking deep breaths)

Oh, you wanna bite Me again,
Amy Marlowe?

(Chuckling)

What do you want?

I-- I--

(Grunting)

Yes?

I want--

Time?

Do you see now, Amy?

(???)

(Scoffs)

(Amy taking deep breaths)

(???)

- (Blows air)
- (Amy screaming)

AMY: (Whispering)
What's going on?

What's going on?

What's going on?

- Oh.
- Oh!

- Oh.
- Oh!

- (Taking deep breaths)
- You alright there, Amy?

Aaron.

Aaron.

Where is Aaron?

Yikes, Amy, those scratch--

- Oh, just--
- Marks look nasty.

You know, My cousin Alistair
got bit by a rabbit

when we were in scouts
and after that

he never could stop scratching.

That was definitely--

Can you just tell Me
where Aaron is?

Alright, you're clearly itchy

- and agitated.
- Yes.

But are you also feeling
any one

or a combination of fever,
headache, weakness--

- Oh My God.
- Mild or Moderate paralysis,

- confusion--
- MM--M--

Insomnia, delirium,
hallucinations--

Abnormal behavior
or generalized discomfort?

Because if you are--

Just tell Me
where the fuck he is!

Bob's office,
last time I checked.

Thank you.

(Taking deep breaths)

You sure you're not seein'
anything, Amy?

Anything
that's not really there?

Want a bite?

(Snorting)

(Indistinct lyrics
in background)

Ah!

How's it going, kiddo?

What the fuck?

Rusty pipe.

Where's Aaron?
Ernie said he was in here.

Have you and Sienna kissed
and Made up yet?

What?

I'M looking for him.
Where is he?

She's real upset about
this whole thing.

I don't give a shit.

I've gotta find him.

You can't Make friends
if you don't Make amends.

You know what?
Yes, I have seen Sienna.

She's in the tech room turning
into a fucking Monster.

Uh-- uh, don't call names, Amy.

What?

You women should be building
each other up,

not tearing each other down.

- Are you fucking kidding Me?
- Whoa, Amy!

There is a literal
fucking Monster out there.

AARON:
Airways are back up.

ROBERT:
Oh, excellent, Aaron.

Uh, thank you.

Oh, thank God.

Thank God, thank God,

I've been looking everywhere
for you.

Second.

We're running ads now.

- Show's back up in four.
- Perfect.

That's four Minutes, everyone.

Four Minutes
to the final curtain.

What's goin' on?

Aaron, I don't trust anyone.

(Laughing)

Okay, wait a sec.

Rewind for Me.

I told you
it doesn't Make sense.

Maybe, you should go
to the walk-in, Amy.

These symptoms sound
pretty textbook.

Sienna say that?

Amy, you got bit
by a wild animal tonight.

Who knows what kind of diseases
those things are carrying?

Nothing that is happening to Me
is textbook.

Well, Maybe you should go
lay down for a little bit.

I couldn't sleep if I--

Asleep.

I Must be asleep.

I Must be dreaming.

That's it.

This isn't real.

That's it.

That's it.

That's it.

It's-- it's-- it's--
it's a dream or I'M sleeping

or I passed out or something
on the way in.

It's-- but-- but--
but you've gotta wake Me up.

You gotta wake Me up,
you gotta shake Me,

- you gotta scare Me!
- Okay, Amy, just fucking relax!

Okay, so let's say that
this is a dream.

If that's the case,
I'M not even really Me, right?

I'M part of you.

Aaron, I've been here
a long time

and nobody sees Me
the way you do.

Okay.

Okay.

Then just for the sake
of argument,

let's assume
this is a nightmare.

If that is actually the case,
why would I be on your side?

Yeah, I just don't think

I'M following your logic here,
Ames.

Ow!

(Screaming)

Fuckin' hell!

And if this was a dream,

that wouldn't have hurt
like that!

(Grunting)

AARON:
Fuck.

(Grunting)

Fuck.

Yeah, Amy, I don't think
there's anything that

I can do anything for you here
that you can't do for yourself.

- (Grunting)
- Oh, but there is.

Oh, but there is.
You can hurt Me.

What?

Remember, last Month
when we had that doctor

on the air, he was talking
about lucid dreaming.

- (Grunting)
- Remember that?

(Grunting)

Pain snaps you right out of it.

Amy, I'M not gonna fucking
hurt you.

I'M not asking you.

- (Yelling)
- What the fuck!

Amy, what the fuck!

Stop it!

Stop it!

Are you fucking crazy?

(Yelling)

Stop it!

Stop it!

(Taking deep breaths)

(Screaming)

What the fuck!

Amy.

One Minute till you're back on.

No.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

- Yes, yes, yes!
- No!

Come on, kiddo.

Let's give 'eM a show
to die for.

(Yelling)

Oh!

(Laughing)

There's Amy!

(Taking deep breaths)

Ready, boss?

Yes, Ernie.

Please, escort Ms. Marlowe
to Studio A.

No, no, Ernie,
what are you doing?

- Amy.
- Stay the fuck away from Me!

You Must fulfill your final
contractual obligations.

Stay the fuck aw--

(Grunting)

- You know this.
- Let Me go!

ROBERT:
Aaron, go check the levels.

AMY:
Let Me go, god dammit!

ROBERT:
Let's go, up and out.

- (Robert shushing)
- Fuck you!

- ROBERT: Amy--
- Aaron--

ROBERT:
You're very loud.

Aaron, don't go, don't go,
don't go.

Help Me out, please.

- Sorry, Amy.
- AMY: Please.

I still have a future here.

No!

Fucking let go of Me!

Why the sudden stage fright,
Amy?

Oh, you fucking bastard!

Got a little fire in you!

- (Grunting)
- I'll Miss that.

AARON: (On Mic):

Aaron?

Aaron?

You gotta help Me, Man.

You're losing it, Amy.

Everyone's saying so.

What?

No, no!

You are-- no, no.

AARON: (On Mic):

You and Me, we sh--

You care about Me,
I care about you.

- Don't do this.
- 15 seconds.

If I were 30 years younger,
Me and you, Maybe we would've--

AARON: (On Mic):
But you're not.

You're old.

You Motherfucker.

Who the hell
do you think you are?

Go back to your cum dumpster!

See if I care!

10 seconds.

I bled for this place
for 30 goddamn years,

but they still want
another fuckin' night.

5, 4--

I've been at the center
of this so-called joke too long.

You fucking sons of--

It's Ten Minutes to Midnight.

I'M Amy Marlowe.

(Sighs)

I think
I'M going to die tonight.

But I don't know
how Many of you are listening.

I don't know
if anybody is listening,

but I think I'M gonna die.

It's a strange thing,
your last day.

In anything, really.

School, work, life.

Everything's the same,
till it's not.

Routine becomes ritual,
becomes obsession,

till you're nothing More
than a broken record.

That's good shit.

(Chuckling)

It's pretty fucked up, right?

AARON: (On Mic):
Caller on 2.

Hello, caller?

Caller?

SIENNA:
Sounding a little Morbid, Amy.

Sienna.

SIENNA:
Is this really
how you wanna go out?

Does anybody know the answer
to that question?

SIENNA:
I'd guess Most people think
about it More than they admit.

Is that so?

SIENNA:
Why don't you just accept it,
Amy?

And walk silently
into the sunrise?

SIENNA:
No.

Rage into the night.

(Indistinct speech)

SIENNA: (Chuckling)
What do you see
when you look in the Mirror?

I don't see anything.

Not anymore.

(???)

(Screaming)

(Grunting)

(???)

Fuck.

SIENNA:
Amy.

(Yelling)

(Sienna chuckling)

SIENNA:
Amy.

(???)

I don't understand.

I don't fear change, Amy.

I adapt.

Just a few hours now.

(Robert grunting)

He's yours.

(Robert grunting)

Yes.

Yes.

You want it now, don't you?

Yes.

(Sighing)

You gave this to Me, Amy.

Let Me give this to you.

(Sighing)

YOUNG ROBERT:
You know...

...I see something in you, Amy.

This show could be something.

You could be something.

You still got two Minutes, Amy.

(Screaming)

(???)

(Grunting)

(Taking deep breaths)

(Grunting)

I'll try to Make sure
nobody knows

it went down this way.

(Taking deep breaths)

We're discreet, you and Me.

We're professionals.

(Taking deep breaths)

(Knock on door)

Okay, come in.

So what happens now?

You never felt anything?

What?

For Me.

- Amy.
- Anything for Me.

I Mean of course, I did.

You know, it was just--

this was all hard enough
you know,

with-- with you having to leave.

But now--

(Clears throat)

(Sniffles)

You know, we could be together.

Given the circumstances.

Together?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, I Mean I gotta say this--
this is--

You look really hot.

I Mean honestly, you looked
like 20 years younger before.

I was just trying to be nice,
but now I--

I can't resist you.

Nice?

Yeah, you know what I Meant.

Nice would've been telling Me

that My head
was on the chopping block.

I was in My head before.

Okay?

I told you-- I was--
I was just-- I was in My head,

but now, it's all you.

I pro--

It's all you, Amy, I promise.

Look, you said that

we were gonna figure this out
together.

So come on,
let's figure this out together!

AMY:
I already have, Aaron.

I gotta tell you...

...feels like I'M getting away
with something.

(Screaming)

(Grunting)

(Hissing)

(???)

(Phone ringing)

(???)

(Phone continues ringing)

(???)

It's 10 Minutes to Midnight.

I'M Amy Marlowe.

CALLER 4: (On phone)
Hi.

Uh, Amy, can you--
can you hear Me?

Yes, caller, I can hear you.

CALLER 4: (On phone)
Oh, great.

Well um, yeah,
I-- I just started this new job

a few Months ago and it's--

It's tough.

I don't really do this
for a thing, ask for advice.

I do talk to Myself a lot,
though, that helps.

(Caller chuckles)

CALLER 4: (On phone)
But uh, My friend--
uh, My friend said

I should call, talk to someone
who's Maybe been there before.

Do you dislike
what you're doing?

CALLER 4: (On phone)
Oh, no.

No, it's not that.

I-- I love the work.

It's just...

...the environment
can be challenging.

(Caller scoffs)

CALLER 4: (On phone)
I've always been really sure
of Myself.

That's what all My teachers
said in school, but right now,

I'M honestly feeling
kind of lost.

Uh, I'M--

I'M doing things
that I never thought I'd do.

Well, we all have to start
somewhere.

CALLER 4: (On phone)
That's what I keep telling
Myself.

Nobody falls right into
where they want to be,

it takes time, sacrifice.

But I still can't help feeling
like I'M letting someone down.

Your mom?

- Dad?
- CALLER 4: (On phone) Oh, no.

(Caller chuckles)

CALLER 4: (On phone)
I've always pretty Much been
on My own.

Who then?

CALLER 4: (On phone)
I don't know.

Somebody.

Out there.

I was just hoping Maybe
you could give Me some advice

or I don't know um, point Me
in the right direction.

You seem like somebody
who knows who she is.

CALLER 4: (On phone)
I guess you could say that.

But what about what you want?

CALLER 4: (On phone)
I have some ideas.

Goals.

Mostly it's feelings, though.

What does that Mean?

CALLER 4: (On phone)
You know what's funny, Amy?

I listen to you every night

and I still don't even know
what you look like.

I don't even have a picture
of you in My Mind,

but still there's this intimacy.

The cadence of your voice,
the vibrations.

Like I know you
from the inside out.

And so there's just this strong,
warm sense within Me

that you're beautiful.

Someone seeing Me like that.

I think that's what I want.

It sounds like
you're on your way.

Amy’s Advice?

CALLER 4: (On phone)
Please.

Trust that warm feeling.

Hold on to it.

Let it lead you.

CALLER 4: (On phone)
Thanks, Amy.

Maybe if I'M lucky,
one day I'll end up like you.

Good luck, caller.

CALLER 4: (On phone)
Oh, and congratulations
on retirement.

I know some people
can be sad on days like this,

but you did it!

The hard part's over.

Enjoy the victory lap.

(???)

(???)

(Indistinct radio chatter)

(Blows air)

(Wind howling)

(Door alarm buzzes)

AMY:
Goddamn, Jesus Christ!

Come on, close the door.

Get on in here.

Oh, what all did you do
this time?

Aaron?

Oh, he's already
in the sound booth.

By the way, Bob wants to see you
in his office before the show.

No.

- No, no, no, no, no, no.
- That looks pretty nasty.

Was it that raccoon again?

That little dumpster bitch.

Sure hope
he doesn't have rabies.

What is going on?

- What is going on?
- Hey, hey, hey, relax, Amy.

The storm’s got everyone
feelin' a little crazy.

It's just one of those nights,
yeah?

ERNIE:
He did not.

You have got to be kidding Me.

Hand to God, sweetheart.

Hand to God.

(Grunts)

Amy, come in.

Cutting it kind of close,
don't you think?

(Chuckles)

Uh, Earth to Amy?

(Chuckling)

Have you looked out a window?

I can't say that I have.

Got too good of a view
right here.

Oh Robert, stop it.

Please, sweetheart.

- Call Me "Bob".
- Bob.

Sienna.

HMM, do you two know each other?

Oh, no, I would've remembered.

I grew up listening to you.

Big fan.

Then how do you know--

Aaron uh, told Me.

I Mean Ernie.

Ernie.

Are you alright, Amy?

Never better.

Alright, great.

Well, she's gonna be
your shadow tonight,

so Make sure you show her
the ropes.

Now, I don't want to impose.

Nonsense.

- She'd love to.
- I'd love to.

Good on you, kiddo.

You remember how it is.

It's nice to have someone there
when you're transitioning.

ROBERT: (On Mic):
You know, that's what I like
about you, Amy.

You do it old school.

(Indistinct lyrics
in background)

Storm’s really picking up, huh?

You want a bite?

Garlic noodle.

What's up with you tonight?

Storm got you feeling
a little tweaked?

Something like that.

Oh, actually, you know what?

It's probably solar flares.

Bob said they've been causing
dead air for Most of the day.

I heard that.

Yeah, but don't worry,

we should be good
for the big show tonight.

So sorry.

Where do you want Me?

AMY:
Sienna, can you get Robert
for Me?

What?

Robert.

I need him.

Now.

Uh, yeah.

Sure.

(Indistinct lyrics)

Everything alright there, Ames?

(Indistinct lyrics)

When did you know
this was gonna be My last show?

Uh, just--

Give it to Me straight.

A week ago.

(Thunder rumbling)

(Indistinct lyrics)

Thanks.

Kiddo, what's going on?

AMY:
I'M not gonna beat
around the bush.

This is it.

Last show.

I'M being replaced.

Amy, let's not Make a fuss.

We have a nice sunrise
farewell party for you planned.

Red velvet cake.

Yes, your favorite.

My favorite.

Five seconds, Amy.

(???)

I'M Amy Marlowe.

Amy, My God, you really stuck
the landing tonight, huh.

I knew you had it in you.

And this-- this is all for you.

(???)

(Sighing)

Why do you look so depressed?

You earned this.

Enjoy.

(???)

Having fun?

You did great tonight.

What's wrong?

I don't know who I am
without this place.

Uh, Amy.

Robert.

Aaron, I just--

(Scoffs)

You're leaving a legacy behind.

Oh bullshit.

The only thing you ever
leave behind is a headstone

and you're lucky
if you get that.

(Chuckling)

Well, I can't say
I'M not gonna Miss you.

Too little, too late, I know,

but I always kinda had a crush
on you.

(Chuckling)

You ever feel like
you know someone?

I Mean really know them.

Even if you've never seen them
before?

Of course, you do.

Who am I talking to here?

Ever realize the opposite
is true?

What do you Mean?

That people aren't
who you think they are.

That you never really
knew anybody.

(???)

(Grunting)

HMM.

Hey!

Alright, everybody!

It's time for cake!

CROWD:
Oh yeah!

Yeah, it's time to cut,
come on...

ANNOUNCER:
We'll keep rolling into forever
as we raise a glass

to the vintage vixen
of radio land.

Let's Make some noise
and keep the party rolling

for the lady of the hour

and her last trip
down the airwaves.

It's Amy Marlowe, everybody.

Come on and show her the love
while you still can.

Oh, there she is.

Amy, My dear, Amy.

My golden girl.

30 years you've been with Me!

30 glorious years.

And I do declare,
without a shadow of a doubt,

you have given us
everything you have to give

and tonight was no exception.

I Mean, what a finale!

- AM I right?
- CROWD: Yeah.

AM I right?

- That's right?
- CROWD MEMBER: Yeah.

Oh, oh, I remember
the very first day I Met you,

My dear Amy Marlowe.

She was a shy young thing.

But we gave you a voice,
and a platform,

and the rest is,
as the scholars say, history.

(Laughing)

And I have Made a career,
as you know, nay--

SIENNA, ROBERT, AND CROWD:
A life!

Right!

Out of seeing things in people.

And rest assured,
your memory will surely live on.

Your spirit is entombed
in this building

for as long as these walls
shall stand.

To Amy.

CROWD:
To Amy!

Yes.

(Grunting)

Of course, what kind of party
would be this be

without presents?

(Cheering)

(Chanting presents)

SIENNA:
Yeah, come on.

Come on bring her up,
bring her up.

Come on, Man.

(Overlapping speech)

Oh, Amy, there she is.

Ernie, take it away.

Well, Mine is a little bit More
of a memento than a gift.

I didn't wind it.

Thought you'd like to spend
as Much time

in 10 Minutes to Midnight
as you could.

Aaron.

AARON:
Oh, he's got somethin'' for you,
too.

But first, Sienna.

Got a little sneaky
and found out the year

you were born.

Never would have guessed
with how beautiful you are.

This was bottled
that same summer.

May it fill your veins
with the weight of history.

(???)

(Gasps)

To close the circle, Amy,

you're as beautiful
as the day you started here.

And finally on behalf
of everyone here,

both past and present,
now and forever.

(Cheering)

(Laughing)

Well, perhaps now,
you'll finally be able

to get some of that
Much needed rest, Amy.

(Cheering)

(Laughing)

Aaron.

HMM.

These people, who are they?

You don't know them?

I don't know.

I-- I-- I think so,
I-- but I-- Maybe.

I don't know.

You're not alone, Amy.

It happens to everyone.

It's time to say goodbye.

Goodbye?

(Chuckling)

God!

It feels like forever
when you're in the Middle.

By the time you get there,
it's like--

(Indistinct chatter
in background)

You know?

I don't.

Not yet at least.

But I will.

The end's always coming, Amy.

Can't outrun it, 'cause
we're always Moving toward it.

Just like that.

I'M scared.

I don't know what to do.

Give into it, Amy.

(Sobbing)

(Indistinct chatter
in background)

CROWD MEMBER 2:
The sun is rising.

CROWD MEMBER 3:
(Overlapping speech)

Oh, everyone,
we've been having such fun

we didn't even realize
dawn is breaking!

Ooh!

Ah!

(Beeping)

(Door buzzes)

I see a few cars

I guess that party went on
longer than we thought.

(Amy humming)

Everything okay in there?

(Amy grunting)

Amy?

(Amy chuckling)

(Knocks)

Sienna?

Man, comin'' in.

(Screaming)

Oh My God!

(Bat squeaking)

(Screaming)

(???)

? Somewhere out there ?

? Deep in the dark
of the night ?

? Creatures crave ?

? Blood to feed their appetite ?

? Long, sharp knives ?

? To cut you
right down to size ?

? Now, close your eyes ?

? So the night can come alive ?

? In the night
there are bad things ?

? You cannot understand ?

? An abomination ?

? The devil commands ?

? In dark shadows ?

? Lurk strange things ?

? No one knows ?

? What the night brings ?

? Bloodletting lycanthropy ?

? No one knows ?

? What the night brings ?

? I am the one that
sits at the foot of your bed ?

? When you think
you're alone at night ?

? To Make sure you're ?

? Tucked in oh, so tight ?

? Now don't be scared ?
