A sick individual named the street Edgewood Way, and he put it half a mile

from Edgewood Lane.

Huh?

It's crazy.

He got me out here in this creepy, confusing -ass suburb.

I'm serious, though.

I feel like a sore thumb out here.

All right, baby.

All right, I'll talk to you soon.

See you.

Okay, so this is mine.

It's like a fucking hedge maze out here.

I think it said left on... What

was that?

Peacock?

Okay. I just keep on walking. I don't do nothing stupid. I just keep on.

Fuck this. I was about to go to the other way. I can't.

Not today.

It's not me.

You know how they like to do motherfuckers out here, man. I'm gone.

Come on, brother.

Brother. Brother.

Kindia.

Kindia.

What's it going over there?

I'm good.

You got your toothbrush?

Yeah. Do you have your deodorant? Yeah.

Do you have your cozy clothes?

Got that.

Okay, give me a minute. You gotta pry something out of your dad.

Do they know I'm black?

No.

Should they?

It seems like something you might want to know.

Mention. Mom and Dad, my black boyfriend will be coming up this weekend, and I

just don't want you to be shocked.

That he's a black man.

He said I was the first black guy he ever dated. Yeah, so what? Yeah, so it's

uncharted territory for him. You know, I don't want to get chased off the lawn

with a shotgun.

You're not going to. First of all, my dad would have voted for Obama a third

time if he could have.

Like, the love is so real.

I'm only telling you that because he's definitely going to want to talk to you

about that. And it will definitely fucking suck.

But that's because he's a lame dad more than anything else.

They are not racist.

I would have told you.

I wouldn't be bringing you home to them. Think about that for like two seconds.

Thinking. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Good.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

no.

How can I get in trouble for patting down an old lady?

It's standard procedure.

Gary just think as an elderly bitch's elderly, she can't hijack no

black. See, wait, wait, wait. I know you're laughing. I'm serious, man. The

9 -11 is going to be all some geriatric shit.

Straight up.

Look, man, that's what I'm looking at this weekend.

Remember, no human food.

He's got IBS. Damn, see, give me some type of credit.

Okay, I don't get shit you do.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, all right. No, I accept your apology.

It's all good.

How are Miss Rosie doing?

She's good. She's driving.

Can I talk to him? No. I'd like to talk to him, too.

Hold on, hold on.

Hi, Rod.

You know you picked the wrong guy, right?

Oh, yeah, of course I know that. This is all just a play to get to you.

Okay, get going, girl.

You don't manage it because you never take my advice.

Like what?

Like don't go to a white girl parent's house.

What you doing, licking your balls or something?

Yeah, bye.

Chris.

Smuffler hung up on me.

You're jealous.

I'm not jealous.

Stay here.

What?

What are you doing?

I don't know.

Well,

maybe he's gone, you know.

Chris.

So in the future, the number to call is Animal Control Services.

Sorry about that.

So are you guys coming up from the city?

Yeah, yeah. My parents are from the Lake Ponico area.

We're just heading up there for the weekend.

Sir, can I see your license, please?

Wait, why?

Yeah, I have state ID.

No, no, no. He wasn't driving.

I didn't ask who was driving. I asked to see his ID.

Yeah, why?

That... Doesn't make any sense. Here.

No, no, no. Fuck that. You don't have to give him your ID because you haven't

done anything wrong. Maybe baby, he's okay. Come on. Anytime there's an

incident, we have every right to ask. That's bullshit.

Ma 'am, the... Everything

all right, Ryan?

Yeah, I'm good.

Get that headlight fixed. And that mirror.

Thank you, officer.

What? It was hot.

Hot? I'm not telling anyone to fuck with my man.

The groundskeeper.

Are you ready?

I'm kidding. You called me Dean and you hugged me, my man.

How are you? I'm good. How are you? We're huggers.

My mom, Chris.

Nice to meet you.

Anyway,

yeah.

Come on in.

So

how did you

drive in?

It was fine.

We actually had a deer.

What? Yeah.

Is it dead? Yeah.

That's horrible.

Yeah,

it just frucked us out.

Yeah, it came out of nowhere. We got it pretty good.

Yeah, it must have frucked you out.

Frucking weird.

You know what I say?

I say one down, a couple hundred thousand to go.

Yeah. No, I don't mean to get on my high horse, but I'm telling you, I do not

like the deer. I'm sick of it. They're taking over. They're like rats.

They're destroying the ecosystem.

I see a dead deer on the side of the road. I think to myself, that's a start.

I don't even understand that. I'm just saying. You know what? I am grateful for

what you've done today.

I don't like them.

We got that.

Okay. Yeah. All right. You guys look so wiped out. Yeah. Yeah. So

how long has this been going on, this thing?

How long?

Four months.

Five months, actually.

She's right. I'm wrong.

Attaboy. Better get used to saying that.

Please. I'm so sorry.

Oh, yeah. I'm sorry. She's right. I'm wrong.

See? Does he have an off button? That's exhausting.

I know, and I want to give you a tour.

Can you, like, unpack first?

You want to unpack?

Before the tour?

This is Missy's office.

Take a look. appointments in there.

He's a therapist, right? A psychiatrist, yeah. Yeah, it turns out people up here

are just as messed up in the head as they are in the city. This is Jeremy.

This is Rose's little brother. There he is.

I've heard stories.

Yeah, I bet you have. He's studying medicine now. He wants to be just like

old man.

You'll meet him. All right, cool.

He's up in Bali.

That's pretty eclectic. I'm a...

I'm a traveler, and I can't help it.

I keep bringing souvenirs back.

It's such a privilege to be able to experience another person's culture.

You know what I'm saying? Mm -hmm.

Oh, you're going to love this.

My dad's claim to fame was beat by Jesse Owens in the qualifying round for the

Berlin Olympics in 1936. Those are the ones where... Owens won in front of him.

Yeah, what a moment.

This perfect Aryan race bullshit.

This black dude comes along, proves him wrong in front of the entire world.

Amazing.

Tough break for your dad, though.

Yeah.

He almost got over it.

Uh, that's the basement. We had to seal it up. Some black mold down there.

My mother loved her kitchen, so we keep a piece of her in here.

Georgina, this is Chris. This is Rosa's boyfriend.

Hi.

The garage goes under the sink, and now for the piece de resistance.

The field of play.

I love it. The nearest house is across the lake.

Total privacy.

What? Come on, I get it.

White family, black servants. It's a total cliche.

I wasn't going to take you there.

Well, you didn't have to, believe me.

No, we hired Georgina and Walter to help care for my parents.

When they died, I couldn't bear to let them go.

I mean, boy, I hate the way it looks.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

By the way, I would have voted for Obama for a third term if I could. Best

president in my lifetime, hands down.

I agree. Yeah.

So what do your parents do, Chris?

Uh, my dad wasn't really in the picture. My mom passed away when I was, like,

11. Oh, I'm sorry. How did she die?

Hit and run.

That's awful.

Yeah, I'm sorry to hear that.

You were young.

Actually, I don't remember a lot from that time, so... Well, that's okay. We

don't have to talk about that.

You smoke, Chris?

You doing something a little bit over there?

I'm quitting.

Dad, this is why I don't bring people to the house anymore.

That's okay. We're not judging.

It's a nasty habit, though.

You should have Missy take care of that for you.

How?

Hypnosis. She developed a method, and I'm telling you, it works like a charm.

Wow. Some people don't want strangers messing around in their heads, guys.

Listen, Chris, I thought it was total...

Bullshit. I smoked cigarettes for 15 years. I loved every goddamn puff I

She puts me under once.

The sight of a cigarette makes me want to vomit.

Okay, fall back, Dean. It's a service we provide.

I'm good at you, Lisa.

Thank you. Well, smoker or not, we're thrilled to have you up here for the big

get -together.

Wait, holy shit, that's this weekend?

Yes. Well, let's get together.

I'm Stuart. It's Rose's grandfather's party.

My dad would throw a shindig once a year, get all his friends together.

Bocce ball, badminton.

Wait, why didn't you guys tell me about this?

Well, it's the same day every year, sweetheart.

No, it's not.

Actually, it is.

Is it really? Yeah.

We just kept it up because after they died, it felt like we keep them close to

us.

Oh, Cortina.

Why don't you go lay down? Just get some rest.

Yeah, I think I will.

Good.

What's up, Pam?

Hey, Care Bear.

Hi, darling.

Nobody answers the door around here.

Hey, Rosie.

Why would I lie? I love it.

Did she tell you about her toenail collection? Oh, my God.

What? Oh, my God.

She used to bite them off, suck on them, and save them in a jewelry box.

No, I didn't. I don't know what you're talking about. That is really

No.

Fucking hate you. Okay, here's a good one.

Let me set the scene.

It was our junior year.

Rose has a crush on this guy, Connor Garfield. No.

Connor Garfield? No.

Mom? No, I know.

Jeremy, stop.

No, no, no. These are good. These are good. We got it. I want to hear it.

Rose, where are your manners?

Our guest wants to hear the story. Please.

Thank you.

So Connor's from out across, right? You're a kid, like 6 '3". He's pretty

right? So we threw this party. You threw a party.

I think my parents were in Greece or something.

We raided their liquor cabin. We're all shit -faced, like 15 of us. Oh, my God.

Tell me this isn't true, Rose.

I filled the liquor bottles with water.

Let me finish.

Uh -huh. Go ahead.

It's all right. So, I'm upstairs, hooking up with the hottest girl in

Jane Deal. Oh, my God. You realize you're coming off as, like, the world's

biggest douchebag right now, right?

So, Connor starts banging on the bathroom door, right? I open it.

Blood's gushing from his mouth. And he's screaming his fist up at my fucking

tongue off, right? You get it? Okay, okay. To be fair, it was my first kiss,

he slipped some tongue, and I was not expecting it. It was a reflex. I'm

A reflex that I have since gotten rid of. Yeah.

No.

I'm going to go get dessert and maybe clean it up a little bit.

So, Chris, what's your sport?

Football? Baseball?

Basketball.

You an MMA fan?

Dude.

Dude, what?

What? Hey, Jeremy, why don't we let someone else have the floor for a

You're dating my sister, right?

He's dating my sister, you had your chance.

I can't get to know the guy.

You mean like UFC?

Yes. Yeah, nah, too brutal for me.

Do you ever get in a string fight as a kid?

I did judo after school, first grade.

Aw. You should have seen me.

Judo?

With your frame and your genetic makeup, if you really pushed your body,

and I mean really trained, you know, no pussyfooting around, you'd be a fucking

beast.

Carrot cake.

Ooh. Hi.

Carrot cake.

What did I miss?

Oh, a whole bunch of nothing. You talking about sports?

Hey.

The crazy thing about jujitsu is strength doesn't matter, right?

It's all about this.

It's a strategic game, like chess.

It's all about being two, three, four moves ahead.

Stand up.

Jeremy, no karate at the dinner table. It's not karate, man.

Yo, I got a rule. No play fighting drunk dudes.

Jeremy.

I wasn't going to hurt him.

Who was gonna put you in a fucking headlock?

What is his problem? He's never treated any of my boyfriends that way. Ever,

ever, ever.

Mm -hmm.

Oh, my God. And then my dad was the my man stuff.

My man, my man. I don't think he's ever heard that or said it, and now he

just... It's all he says.

Yep. Oh, and my mom being rude to Georgina? What the fuck was that about?

That was so crazy.

How are they different than that cop?

That's the fucking bummer of it all.

Mm -hmm.

Mm -hmm.

Anything more you'd like to add?

I told you so.

I didn't want to say it. I didn't want to say it.

I didn't want to say that.

I've noticed that.

I am sorry.

No, no, no. Come here. Come here.

Come here. I'm sorry.

What?

Why are you saying sorry?

I brought you here, and I'm related to all of them. No, it's fine. It's fine.

Yeah? Yeah.

How are you so calm?

Honestly, it's nothing.

I like you on your racial flow, though.

Is this a racial flow? Racial flow. I feel on a racial flow. Do it.

Oh, fuck.

The party.

I'm back in the B. You're so white. You look so white.

It's all good.

Yeah? Yeah.

You know, with my genetic makeup, shit can go down.

I'm a beast.

I'm a beast.

Okay.

Huh?

Do you realize how dangerous smoking is?

Yeah.

Come in and sit with me, please.

Just for a little... Please.

Thanks.

So you're comfortable enough, right?

Perfect. Thanks.

You want to know how it works?

You just dangle a pocket watch in front of people's faces, is that it?

You watch a lot of TV.

When I was a kid.

Ah, now you're feeling very sleepy.

We do use focal points sometimes to guide someone into a state of heightened

suggestibility. Hide and suggestibility.

That's right.

That's right.

Do you smoke in front of my daughter?

I'm gonna quit, I promise.

That's my kid.

That is my kid.

You understand?

What about your mother?

What about her?

Where were you when she died?

I don't want to think about that.

Watching TV.

You hear the TV?

What do you hear?

Rain. Rain, it was raining.

You hear the rain?

You hear it? Find it.

Chris, look at me.

Found it.

Where was your mom?

She, uh... She was coming home.

She wasn't home.

From what?

What do you do?

Nothing.

Nothing?

I just sat there.

You didn't call anyone?

No. Why not?

I don't know. I just thought that

if I did, make it real.

You did nothing.

You did nothing.

Now, sink into the floor. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Now you're in the sunken place.

What's up, man?

Working you good out here, huh?

Nothing I don't want to be doing.

Yeah.

I didn't get to meet you, actually, up close. I'm Chris.

I know who you are.

She is lovely, isn't she?

Rose?

Here she is. One of a kind.

Top of the line.

A real doggone keeper.

Right.

Sorry about last night.

What?

My exercise.

I didn't mean to scare you.

Yeah.

Yeah. And did it work? It won't work.

You were in Mrs.

Armitage's office for quite some time.

Oh, yeah.

I guess I had too much of that wine last night. I can't really remember.

Well, I should get back to work and mind my own business.

I think your mom hypnotized you last night.

What?

When?

I went out for some air last night, and I run into her, and... I can barely

remember anything, but now the thought of the cigarette makes me want to throw

up.

Oh, my God.

I'm sorry.

I can't believe she did that to you.

I had some fucked -up dreams.

What'd you dream?

I was in a hole or something, and I couldn't move.

Oh, God, that sounds terrible.

I'm sorry.

Hey, uh, what's Walt's deal?

What do you mean, his deal?

I just talked to him, dude. The whole vibe's hot now.

Did he say something?

It's not what he says, it's how he says it, you know?

Hmm.

Maybe, maybe he likes you.

Maybe, maybe he's jealous or something.

Are you fucking with me?

No.

So you think I've, you think I've got a chance then?

Put in a good word.

I will, I'm going to talk to my dad about that. That's not. Oh, don't talk

your dad.

It's fine, it's fine. It's not a big deal. It's not a big deal.

Forget about it. It's done.

Oh, boy.

Oh, man.

It begins.

Are you ready for this?

Yeah.

I'm not.

There they are. Oh.

Don't die.

All right.

Want to do that again?

Yeah, just smile.

Yeah, there you go. There it is.

Oh, look, it's the Greens.

Gordon and Emily, this is Chris. Chris, this is Gordon and Emily Green.

Chris, nice to meet you. Nice to meet you, Chris. Nice to meet you indeed.

Oh, that's quite a grip. Thank you. You too, man. You ever play golf?

Once. A few years ago. It wasn't very good.

Gordon was a professional golfer for years. Oh, he didn't? Well, I can't

swing the hips like I used to, though.

But, uh...

I do know Tiger.

Oh, that's great.

Gordon loves Tiger.

Oh, best I've ever seen, ever. Hands down.

So, Chris, let's see your form.

This is Nielsen and Alisa.

Hey, how you doing?

So, how handsome is he?

Are you?

Oh,

not bad.

Hey, Neilson.

So, is it true?

Is it better?

Wow, wow.

Wow!

Periskin has been in favor for the past, what, couple of hundreds of years?

But now the pendulum has swung back.

Black is in fashion.

Pardon me, I'm going to take some pictures.

I've been going.

Good to see another brother around here.

Yes.

Of course it is.

Something wrong?

There you are.

Can you do something with this?

Yes, yes.

Oh, hello.

I'm Philomena, and you are?

Chris, Rose's boyfriend.

Fantastic. You two make... A lovely couple.

Hey. Where are my manners?

Logan. Logan King.

Chris was just telling me how he felt much more comfortable with my being

That's nice.

Logan, I hate to tear you away, dear, but the Wincotts were asking about you.

Well,

it was nice to meet you, Chris.

Goodbye.

Ignorance.

Who? All of them.

They mean well, but they have no idea what real people go through.

Jim Hudson.

Chris. I know who you are.

I am an admirer of your work. You have a great eye. Wait.

Jim Hudson?

Hudson Galleries?

Leave me the irony of being a blind art dealer isn't lost on me.

How'd you do it?

My assistant describes the work to me in great detail.

You've got something.

The images you capture, so brutal, so melancholic.

It's powerful stuff, I think.

Thank you.

Used to dabble myself.

Wilderness, mostly.

I submitted to Nat Geo 14 times before realizing I didn't have the eye.

I began dealing, then of course my vision went to shit.

Yeah.

I know.

Life can be a sick joke.

One day you're developing prints in the dark room, the next day you wake up in

the dark.

Genetic disease.

Shit ain't fair, man. Oh, you got that right. Shit ain't fair.

We'll be right back.

What the fuck left me out there?

Look at this.

She unplugged my phone.

Who? Georgina. I came here to talk to Ron and I got no juice.

So you think she did that because... Maybe she doesn't like...

the fact that I'm with you.

Really?

It's a thing.

So you are so sexy that people are just unplugging your phone?

Forget it, never mind.

No, no, no, stop.

Don't... Don't do that. Don't... Okay, okay. I'm sorry. It's all good, right?

Well, they got you on display now, huh?

It's weird, man. There's people here, too. It's like they haven't met a black

person that doesn't work for them.

Yep, you're in it.

Oh, so shit.

I didn't want to tell you.

What?

I got hypnotized last night.

Nigga, get the fuck out of here.

Yo, yo, yo, yeah, yeah, it's a quick smoke, but it's Rose's mom's a

psychiatrist, so... Bruh, I don't care if the bitch is Ayana Van Zant, okay?

She can't fix my motherfucking life. You ain't getting in my head. I know, shit.

I'm sure it worked.

Bro, how you not scared of this, man?

Look, they could have made you do all types of stupid shit. They'd have you

fucking barking like a dog, flying around like you're a fucking pigeon,

ridiculous, okay? Or, I don't know if you know this, white people love making

people sex slaves and shit.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they're not a kinky sex family, dog. Look, Jeffrey

was eating the shit out of niggas' heads, okay?

But that was after he fucked their heads.

Do you think they saw that shit coming?

Hell no.

I guess I'm gonna just suck a little dick, maybe jiggle some balls and shit.

No, they didn't get a chance to jiggle shit because their head was off their

fucking body.

Yeah, they still sucked the dick, but without their heads. It was fucking

detached head shit. You know, that's Jeffrey Dahmer business.

And thanks for that image right there, man.

Hey, man, I ain't making this shit up. I saw it on A &E, man. It's real life.

No, and it's the black people out here, too. It's like all in Mr. Movement.

Because they probably hypnotized.

Uh -huh, uh -huh, uh -huh.

Look, bruh, all I'm doing is connecting the dots.

I'm taking what you presented to me, okay?

I'm gonna tell you this. I think that mom is putting everybody in a trench,

she's fucking the shit out of them. Thanks, Rod Black.

Hello. Fuck, hi.

I owe you an apology.

How rude of me to have touched your belongings without asking.

Oh, no, it's cool. I was just confused.

Well, I can assure you.

There was no funny business.

Allow me to explain.

I lifted your cellular phone to wipe down the dresser, and it accidentally

undone. Yeah, I... Rather than meddle with it further, I left it that way.

How foolish of me.

It's fine.

I wasn't trying to snitch.

Snitch?

Rat you out.

Telltale.

Yeah.

Oh, don't you worry about that.

I can assure you, I don't answer to anyone.

Right.

All I know is sometimes there's too many white people I get nervous, you know.

Aren't you something?

That's not my experience.

Not at all.

The Armitages are so good to us.

They treat us like family.

about Jazzy Owens.

Come on.

Hey,

hang on. Chris. Chris, I want to introduce you to some friends. This is

and Marsha Wincott, Ronald and Celia Jeffries, Hiroki Tanaka, and Jessica and

Friedrich Wald.

Too many names to remember, but hi.

Do you find being African -American has more advantage or disadvantage?

Then we're gonna walk.

Walk.

It's a tough one.

Yeah, I don't know, man.

Hey.

Yo, my man.

They were asking me about the African -American experience. Maybe you could

this one.

Oh.

Well, well.

I find that the African -American experience for me has been, for the most

very good.

Although I find it difficult to go into detail as I haven't had much desire to

leave the house in a while.

We've become such homebodies.

Yes, yes, yes. But even when you go into the city, I've just had no interest.

The chores have become my sanctuary.

Get out.

It's all right, man. Get out!

Yo! Yo! Kill me! Kill me!

Get the fuck out of here!

These are great anxiety, which can trigger aggression.

Yeah, but, like, randomly attacking other people?

It's not random. You know, it was your...

Flash. That's what set him off.

Well, how's he doing?

Much better.

I imagine that I owe you all an apology.

No, no, no. We're just very happy that you're yourself again.

Yes. Yes, I am. And I thank God for you for calming me down.

I know that I must have frightened you all quite a bit.

Especially you, Chris.

Oh, I'm sorry.

The flash, I didn't know.

Of course not.

How could you have?

And you shouldn't have been drinking either.

Yes. Well, I'll have to let you all get on the rest of the night without the aid

of my marvelous wit.

The whole ordeal has made me quite a bit exhausted.

Well, then you just get some rats.

It was nice meeting you.

Chris.

Yeah.

Something to lighten the mood?

Yes, yeah. Let's get this party back on track. How about sparklers and bingo?

We're going to go on a walk.

You sure?

Shall we?

My cousin's epileptic. That wasn't a seizure, right?

My dad's a neurosurgeon, and that's what he said it was. I was inclined to trust

him. That wasn't a seizure. What was it then?

How long have you known that guy?

I met him today.

Why?

I mean, this is going to sound weird, but when he came at me,

it felt like I knew him.

Like you met Logan before? No, I don't know Logan. I knew the guy that come at

me.

I think your mom got in my head, right?

I think she got in my head.

Yeah, and it worked, I thought. No, it did not.

It didn't work.

She got in my head, and now I'm thinking all this fucked up shit that I don't

want to think about.

Like what?

You want to go.

Without me.

Whatever you want.

I told you about that night my mom died.

When I didn't call 911, didn't go out looking for her.

Yeah.

When I went by in two and three, I just

sat there.

I was just watching TV.

There's nothing you could have done.

I found out later I had to...

She had survived the initial hit.

She laid there bleeding by the side of the road, hold of a woman.

That's how she died an early morning, cold and alone.

And I was watching TV.

That was time. That was time. That was time.

There was a time when somebody was looking for her. There was a time when

nobody, nobody, nobody was looking for her.

You're all I've got.

I'm not going to leave you without you. I'm not going to abandon you, okay?

go home.

This sucks.

This sucks. Let's go home. I'll make something up.

Aren't we?

Good night, Chris.

Great to meet you.

That's Drake.

Drake.

Andre Hayworth.

Used to kick him with Veronica.

Veronica's from what?

Teresa's sister that worked at the movie theater on 8th. Yeah.

Yeah, that is him. That is him. But wait, wait, wait, wait.

He's so fucking crazy.

Yo, he's different.

No shit.

Why is he dressed like that? It's not that. It's everything.

He came to the party with a white woman like 30 years older than him. Sex slave!

Shit, his battery must have fucking died.

Hey, handsome.

What are you packing?

Rosie, we gotta go. We gotta go now.

Okay. Okay.

Is everything okay?

We're in the car.

We gotta go right now. Is that okay? Okay, yeah. Let me go get my bag. Okay.

Hey, are you ready?

Yeah, I'm just looking.

Just looking for my camera.

It's right here.

Have you got the keys? I'm going to put the bags in the trunk real quick. Okay.

Yeah, they are in here somewhere.

It's just a matter of finding them.

Yeah. Can you open it?

Yeah. Yeah. Okay.

It might take me a second.

Hey, uh... Well, you can't find those keys.

No, I can never find them. Let's give it some more.

Yeah.

Let's get a kiss.

Yo. Yo, man.

Where you going? The party was just getting started. Just putting bags in

car, man.

Would anyone like tea?

No, I'm good. We leave it, actually.

Really? Why? Is something wrong?

Both. His dog got really sick, so he has to be at the vet first thing in the

morning. Oh, yeah.

Oh, how terrible.

Rose Keith.

What the... Rose?

What is your purpose, Chris?

What?

In life.

What is your purpose?

Right now, it's finding those keys.

Yeah?

Huh.

Fire.

It's a reflection of our own mortality. We're born, we breathe, and we die.

Rose?

Even the sun will die someday.

But we are divine.

We are the gods.

Trapped in cocoons.

Rose.

They don't know where they are. Rose?

Rose! Rose, give me those keys!

Rose, give me... Give me those keys. Rose, now!

Now, the keys!

Oh, be careful, bro. What the fuck?

I didn't do anything.

What the fuck?

Where are your heroes?

You know I can't give you the keys, right babe?

Shit. Is he hurt? Did you see him drop?

Yes, I did.

Jeremy, grab his legs, please. Take him downstairs to Dean. Help him.

I can get him alone.

No, you can't. You've already damaged him enough.

Okay, fuck.

Okay.

Mine just hurt.

You were one of my favorites.

You hear that, Chris?

Huh? One of my favorites.

Hey,

it's Chris. I need to get away from the phone. I just want to talk to you.

Peace.

Chris!

Yeah.

Me too.

Is there anything more beautiful than a sunrise?

Hi.

I'm Roman Armitage.

And if you're watching this, you're probably wondering what's going on.

There's no need to worry.

Let's take a walk.

You have been chosen because of the physical advantages.

You've enjoyed your entire lifetime.

With your natural gifts and our determination, we could both be part of

something greater.

Something perfect.

The coagula procedure is a man -made miracle.

Our order has been developing it for many, many years.

And it wasn't until recently it was perfected.

By my own flesh.

and blood.

My family and I are honored to offer it as a service to members of our group.

Don't waste your strength. Don't try to fight it. You can't stop the inevitable.

And who knows?

Maybe one day you'll enjoy being members of the family.

Hello. Williams.

Rod Williams.

From TSA?

Yes, ma 'am.

Well, we know all TSA issues should be brought up with your authorizing

Yes, ma 'am, but this is not TSA business.

Okay, don't call me ma 'am.

Otherwise, you're not going to get along.

How can I help you? Rod Williams from TSA.

All right, here it is.

My boy Chris has been missing for two days.

Your son is missing.

Oh, no, no, no. Not my son.

My friend. He's 26.

His name is Chris. Chris Washington.

He left on Friday with his girlfriend, Rose Armitage.

She's white.

Thank God.

Look, Chris was supposed to come back on Sunday, right?

And I've been watching his dog, Sid.

That's Sid.

Cute, right?

So Chris sent this to me from his girlfriend's parents' house.

See, that's Andre Hayworth.

Okay, somebody we knew from back in the day.

Apparently, he's been missing for six months in some affluent suburb.

You don't look so missing to me.

That's because we found him, right?

But Chris says he's acting real different.

Different how?

This dude is from Brooklyn.

Huh? He didn't dress like this.

I didn't used to dress like this.

Plus, he's married to a white woman twice his age.

And that would explain the clothes.

All right.

Oh, Lord.

Rob Williams.

I know, I know, I know. Okay, I'm trying to work towards this.

Look, what I'm about to tell you is going to sound crazy.

You ready?

All right.

Try me.

I believe they've been abducting black people, brainwashing them, making them

work for them as sex slaves and shit.

Sorry about the shit.

Sorry.

Then he sent me some weird pictures. I'm like, oh, man, that's Andre Hayes'

work. This dude's been missing for six months, right? So I do all my research,

you know, because as a TSA agent, you know, you guys are detectives. I got the

same training, you know.

We might know more than y 'all sometimes, you know, because we're

some terrorist shit. But that's a totally different story.

So, look, I go do my detective work, right?

And I start putting pieces together.

And this is what I came up with.

They're probably abducting black people, brainwashing them, and making them

slaves or sex slaves, not just regular slaves, but sex slaves and shit.

See, I don't know if it's the hypnosis that's making them slaves or whatnot,

all I know is they already got two brothers we know, and it could be a

bunch of brothers they got already.

What's the next move?

And don't ever, ever say that I'll do nothing for you.

All white girls, oh, they get you every time.

Yo, um, Rose,

it's me, Rod.

Hi.

Where's Chris?

He left two days ago.

He left?

Yeah, he got all paranoid and then he freaked out on me.

And then he just got in a cab and left his phone.

Wait, you haven't seen him?

No, he never came back here.

Oh, my God.

Look, look, I've been calling his phone a bunch of times.

Matter of fact, I went to the police.

What did you say?

I just said he was missing.

Oh, good.

Let me ask you something.

What cab company did he use to leave you? Oh, gosh. I don't know. I

guess maybe a local one, or I guess he could have called an Uber.

Um, wait, I am so confused.

Oh, you confused? Oh, okay.

Confused. You know something? Me too.

Could you hold on one second?

Okay. Okay, hold on.

You lying bitch. She is lying like a motherfucker. I know that TSA shit

this motherfucker's life.

Fuck, I got you. I'm going to record your ass.

I'm going to record the shit out of you. You talk too goddamn much. You're going

to say something.

Record.

Speaker.

Unmute.

Uh, Rose?

Uh -huh?

Um, so last time I talked to Chris, he told me your mama hypnotized him.

Rod, just stop.

Huh?

I know why you're calling.

Why is that?

It's kind of obvious, don't you think?

That there's something between us?

No, what you talking about, girl? I called you about Chris.

No, Rod. Whenever we'd go out, I remember you looking at me.

What the fuck you... No, Chris is my best friend. Hey, look, if you did

something to him... I know you think about fucking me, Rod.

Ain't nobody thought about fucking you. What would you say for stupid shit? What

the... You ass. Fuck you. I didn't want to... Fuck you. Bye.

Shit.

God, she's so... She's a... She's a... She's a genius.

Hey,

Chris. How's it going, buddy?

You can answer. There's an intercom in the room.

Where's Rose?

Oh, you dirty dog.

You're one of the lucky ones, trust me.

Jeremy's wrangling method sounds way less pleasant.

I'm supposed to answer an E.

outstanding questions, concerns you may have so far.

Apparently, our common understanding of the process has a positive impact on the

success rate of the procedure.

You could give a shit, right?

Okay. Let me just tell you what it is.

Phase one was the hypnotism. That's how they sedate you. Phase two is this.

Mental preparation. It's basically a psychological pre -op.

Pre -op. Or phase three.

The transplantation.

Well, partial, actually. The piece of your brain connected to your nervous

system needs to stay put, keeping those intricate connections intact.

So you won't be gone.

Not completely. A sliver of you will still be in there somewhere.

Limited consciousness.

You'll be able to see and hear what your body is doing, but your existence

will be as a passenger.

An audience.

You'll live.

The sunken place.

Now you're in the sunken place.

Yeah, that's what she calls it.

Now, I'll control the motor function, so I'll be... Me.

You'll be me.

Good. Good.

You got it quick.

Why black people?

Who knows?

People want to change. Some people want to be stronger, faster, cooler.

Black is in fashion.

But don't, please don't let me in with that. You know, I could give a shit what

color you are. No.

What I want is...

want those things you see through.

No more?

We'll be right

back.

Jeremy?

You fucker!

Don't listen to me.

Don't listen to me.

9 -1 -1, what's your emergency?

I'm at the emergency tower.

My name's Karen.

I'm sorry, sir. Can you repeat that?

I'm at the emergency tower.

God bless you.

You...

Get him, Grandpa.

I love you. I love you.

Shit!

Chris!

I mean, I told you not to go in that house.

How do you find me?

I'm T .S.

Motherfucking A.

We handle shit.

That's what we do.

Consider this situation.

Fucking handle.

India.
