All language subtitles for Shell

No, I can't.
I can't get them off.

No. No, they're everywhere.

I can't.

No! Don't call the police.
I can't call anyone.

Come and get me.

No, I'm not.

I feel like you're not
listening to me.

Hello?

Hello?

Anybody there?

I called 911.

They're on their way.

Breaking news at this hour.

Actress and activist
Jenna Janero

is officially considered
a missing person.

Neighbors heard
sounds of distress...

Your kids want
something sweet for breakfast,

but you want to make sure
they stay healthy?

Meet Gardner's Diet Bananas.
That same delicious taste,

only half the calories.

...now the CEO of the largest

health and wellness
brand in America,

Zoe Shannon will be sitting down

with Sally Jones
to talk about Shell,

the company that promises

to keep you looking
younger forever.

But coming up after the break,
self-driving cars

are getting more Americans
to where they want to go,

but can they also
lead to cancer?

That story and...

We have arrived
at your destination.

Have a safe day.

So, how did it go?

Oh, I'm just going in now.

Okay.
Clearly, studio movie,

but they're really open
to a discovery here.

Director is excited to meet.

Well,
I really feel like

I connect with
the character and...

- Love that.
- We believe in you, Sammy.

Okay, well,
I'm getting in the elevator,

- so I might lose you.
- Break a leg, kiddo.

Bye. Bye.

Holy shit. Samantha Lake?

Samantha. Hi.

Hi. Wow.

Oh, wait, um, it's...
It's Chloe.

Chloe, yes.
Yes.

Chloe Benson?
Right.

Redmount Road?

Oh, my God, yes.
You used to babysit me.

Wow, oh... Yeah.

Jesus, you got really, uh...

I mean, you're big
or grown-up.

Well, it's been,
like, ten years.

Has it really been that long?

What are you doing here?

Wait, are you reading
for this, too?

That's crazy.
I'm not reading.

- I'm meeting with the director.
- Oh, cool.

Mm-hmm.
What part
are you meeting for?

I didn't know you wanted
to be an actress.

Oh, I don't, really,
but my management

wants me to diversify
my social audience,

so it's basically more
exploratory at this point.

Wonderful.
Yeah.

Okay.

Samantha Lake?

That's you.
That's me.

Break a leg.

You, too.

Can't wait to tell my folks
that we ran into each other.

They're gonna die.

Hey, guys.

Samantha. Yay, we love you.

Aw, thank you. I love you, too.

Well, we are up against it,

so are you cool
to just dive right in?

Oh, yeah, uh... Wow, okay.

Whoa. Sure.
Uh, is the director, um...

Oh, ultimately, he wasn't able

to make it work
with his schedule,

but he will be watching
everybody's tapes.

Oh, okay.

Yeah, I'm sorry. I just...

I'm so... I thought
this was just a meeting, so...

My... That's what my agent said.
I wasn't, um, ready to read.

Everybody's reading.

- Everybody's reading. Right.
- Sam.

Long time.

Yeah, it's good
to see you again.

Did you, uh, take a break?
'Cause I feel like

I... I haven't seen you
in a minute.

Yeah, no. No, no break.

Okay,
should we get started?

Yeah.

Take this off,
just to get comfortable.

Just... Okay.

Um...

- In my own time?
- Whenever you're ready.

I wanted to be noticed.

I'd wanted it for so long.

I was really willing
to do anything.

And to be anyone, just...

just have another person
look at me.

Really look at me and think
that I was funny or...

I was clever or...

...pretty.

I guess I just wanted you
to look at me

and see someone else.

And I thought
that I would be noticed.

I thought
that I would be seen.

That people would look
at me and I'd think,

"They know.
They know what's in there.

They can see me."

Sounds really foolish,
doesn't it?

I guess I am foolish.
Otherwise...

I wouldn't be here,
sitting in front of you...

asking you to give me
another chance, Your Honor.

Yeah.

Sorry. I didn't cry.

I think I should've
cried, maybe?

Sorry. I didn't cry.

I think
I should've cried, maybe?

Such a great instinct.

- We got it, though.
- Maybe just...

Should I...
Do you want one more?

I'm happy to just do one more,
if you want.

- You know what? I...

- I thought it was great.
- Great. Awesome.

- Perfect. Thank you.
- Okay.

Thanks so much.
Good to see you.

Thank you, Sam. Great stuff.

Good actor,

but you'd never get
the studio to sign off.

- She's what, 40-something?
- I know.

I was just thinking
the same thing.

Do you want
to grab some lunch?

I'm gonna have Benji
go get something for us.

I want you to take a look

at this next girl, Chloe Benson.

She's a tad young for the role,
but stunning.

- She just tested for, uh...
- Hey, guys,

I'm so sorry, just,
I forgot my... my phone.

Okay. Really great to see you.
Thank you.

Good to see you...

You.

You are so fucking good.

You know that?
"Singular Samantha."

They're going another way
on the movie, but...

- Who got it?
- Uh...

I don't think they made
that call yet.

They're looking
at someone who is, um...

Less experienced.

Oh. So, younger?

Fresh face.
Right, well, the character

is a divorced
single mother of two,

so I don't know how young
they can go, but...

Um, well, look,

I'm glad we're here because
I wanted to talk to you guys.

I may not even be...
This is a very
competitive landscape,

and I've always tried
to be honest with you.

You've never really gone
for the nips or tucks,

and I get that.

I respect it.
Thank you.

And I can say this to you,
woman-to-woman.

With all the
developments lately,

we're seeing new demands
on talent to meet...

enhanced standards.
To meet an expectation.

Wow. Okay.

Nobody's asking you
to lose weight.

Mm. Mm-mm.
I love that you have a...

I love that you don't have
a traditional body type.

We need more women like you.

- Thank you.
- I love it, too.

Just for the record.

We want you to consider

- some treatment options.
- Oh, yeah. Yeah.

What about the Shell clinic?
Oh, yes.

Yes.
Sorry, what about it?

Yeah, we represent
them now for branding.

We can have the office
set something up.

Oh, I...

Thank you, but I don't know
if I'm... I'm there yet.

Maybe down the line...
Everybody does something.

There's no shame in it.
Right.

Give it a shot.
And if it doesn't work,

well, it doesn't work.

Okay, uh, yeah,
I mean, I'll think about it.

What do you know about Shell?

I know it works.

Do you remember Jen Bryer
from seventh grade?

Yeah.

I saw her at Gelson's last week.

Looked like she was still
in seventh grade.

Isn't it kind of like,
I don't know, un-feminist?

Zoe Shannon's, like,
the richest woman in America.

And she looks fucking hot.

That's feminist as fuck.
I thought you hated her.

I mean, everyone has
to say they hate her,

- but, like, obviously obsessed.
- Yeah.

Do you want to get
a drink after this?

I can't.
I have that date tonight.

With who? Tattoo guy?
Yeah.

Hot.
Oh, yeah.

So, with the IPO...

That's "initial
public offering."

Mm-hmm.
- That's what that means.

Uh, we're probably gonna be
moving forward.

And most importantly,
I'm gonna pay back my dad.

I'll take this for you.

Thank you.

That's amazing.
Yeah, you...

A little something in...
What? What is it? Oh.

Yeah.
Oh, really? Oh.

Oh, is it... oh, God.

Don't look.

- Is it gone?
- Yeah.

Thanks.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, you got it.

Hey, so you look
so familiar to me.

What is it that you...
you do again for a living?

Oh, I'm an actress.

No way.
Yeah.

Mostly television.

I knew... I knew
that I recognized you.

Really?
Yes. Absolutely.

What... what have I seen you in?

- Oh, probably nothing.
- Well?

Uh, I was on a show that was
quite popular for a while.

It was called
Hannah Got a Heart.

Oh, yeah, no, I know that show.

Uh, the girl
with the talking heart.

Yes.
Yeah.

The previous
heart's owner talked to her.

Hilarious.

- What was that like?
- Oh...

Uh, it was the first pilot
I ever did

that got picked up,
so that was good.

Then I got to work
with all these

really experienced
people, and...

But, I mean, it was a bad show.

Right?

Oh, um, well, no, it's...
cheesy, yeah, for sure.

But I got to do
what I loved, so...
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, but it was a bad show.

Why would you want to be
on a bad show?

Yeah.

I liked it.

I had a really
good time tonight.

Really?
Yeah.

Oh.

Well, I had a nice time, too.

Good.

Oh, sorry.

Did you, um, feel that?
It's just, um...

I have psoriasis.

It's kind of embarrassing.
It's not contagious or anything.

Oh.
Yeah.

Sometimes when it rains,
it flares up a little.

- Oh, that's... that's cool.
- Yeah.

Is it?
Yeah, no, I just, um...

It's not, like, all over
my body or anything.
For sure.

It's, like, in certain spots.
Yeah.

Yeah, no, actually,
I just, um...

I have to be up pretty early
tomorrow, so...

Oh, you... you do?
Yeah.

Yeah. Um...
Okay.

So...
All right. That's fine.

Yeah. Yeah.
Maybe some...

- other time?
- Yeah.

Okay.
Totally. Would love that.

'Cause you have to get up early.

Yeah. Super early.
Okay.

Thank you.
Mm-hmm.

First things first.

You say you've had
the treatment yourself.

Yeah. Yes, I have.

So, I have to ask,
how old are you, really?

I knew you were gonna
ask me that question.

I just turned 68 in May.

- You look amazing.
- Thank you.

But you'll admit,
there's an awful lot of secrecy

about your business.

All I want for our clients
is to free them

of self-doubt and inhibition.

To make them feel good,
feel better,

inside and out.

I mean, you can't fight
the future.

And the future is here.

Welcome to Shell.

We hope you enjoy
your visitation.

Thank you.

Hi. I'm Samantha Lake.

I'm here to check in
for my appointment.

Wonderful. So, I'll just
need your signature

on a few things, okay?

This is our
non-disclosure agreement...

to protect our more
high-profile clients.

Right. Mm-hmm.

Your doctor will be able

to answer any questions
in your consultation.

We'll just need that signature,

and you can make your way over
to the changing station.

Thank you.

Um, ma'am?

That way.

Hello. I'm Dr. Thaddeus Brand,

and I'm here to tell you
about Shell...

fish.

There are organisms existing
in this world today

that do not experience
the process known as senescence.

Put more simply,
these creatures...

the jellyfish, the common hydra,

flatworms, sponges, axolotls,

the lobster...

these creatures do not age,

thanks to the telomerase enzyme,

which protects the ends
of their chromosomes.

Several years ago,
I discovered a unique linkage

between crustacean enzymes

and the exoskeletal
growth process.

By introducing
a genetically altered version

into human cells,

we were able to arrest
the outward signs of aging...

Ms. Lake,
if you'd like to follow me,

I can escort you
to the changing station.

Okay.
...at Shell,

immortality begins today.

Hold on one second.

Ms. Lake?

Hi. I'm Dr. Hubert.

We're a little early,
but I can change the...

No, actually, I was just
looking for the, um...

You know what? I'm sorry,
Doctor, this just...

This isn't for me, so...
I see.

Is it all right if I ask why?

It's just a little...

Ah, spooky?
Yeah.

Yeah, I get that.

Look...

why don't we have
a conversation,

and if you're still
having any doubts afterwards,

I will walk you out myself.

We also have amazing ice cream.

I was treating this burn victim.

This is an image of the damage

right before her
B-One procedure.

That is two weeks after,

and after her first
skin shedding,

no markings anywhere.

In a few months,
it was all gone.

That's impressive.

The treatment doesn't just
halt the aging process.

It facilitates cellular repair,

making it more durable
for the skin to actually heal

and... and be faster at it.

The psoriasis, how long have
you been dealing with that?

A while.

I mean, it's like, you know,
it comes and goes.

Well, I see no reason
why we can't

eliminate flare-ups altogether.

Is it dangerous?

The procedure? 'Cause,
you know, I've heard stories.

We had one patient
whose head exploded,

but that was
a technical malfunction.

Highly unlikely
that's gonna happen again.

That was a joke, by the way.

No, I know.

I mean, it is a surgery.
There's bound to be some risks,

but it is completely painless

and it's far less invasive
than Botox or LASIK.

- I had LASIK.
- Yeah, I see that.

You know...

new patients come in here
all the time,

and they want, like,
bigger muscles

or higher cheekbones,
and I can't help those people.

But if you're interested
in moving forward,

your psoriasis will fade away,

you will be healthier
and you'll feel better.

If you're consistent
with the treatment,

in 20 years,

you will not look one day older
than you do right now.

So, what flavors do you have?

Flavors?

Ice cream.

This will allow you time

to relax

as the serum is delivered
intravenously

and begins to work its magic.

Following your I.V. treatment,
you will be taken

to the rebirth chamber
for the next stage

of your Shell experience.
Once the procedure begins,

our exclusive
laser technology...

Sam?

- Jesus.
- No way.

Can you believe this?

No, I can't.

Isn't it wild
when you just, like,

keep running into someone?

Yeah. Yeah, it's unsettling.

Totally.

I heard you got that movie.
That's...

- I mean, wow. Congrats.
- Oh, the movie.

It sucks, I can't do it.

You can't?

I'm not supposed to
tell anyone yet,

but I think I'm gonna be
the new Catwoman.

- What?
- Isn't that crazy?

Jesus. Yeah.

Such a bummer.
It was a really cool script.

Yeah.
Mm-hmm.

Aren't you a... aren't you
a little young for this?

Young for what?

For the treatment.

I mean, you're what, 22?

Mm-hmm.

Oh, sorry.

Sorry.

I'm just... I think I'm nervous.

You probably won't
remember this,

but when I was a kid,

you took me to this
swimming class

and we were all supposed to
jump off this diving board,

I was totally freaking out.

And you said this thing
to calm me down.

It was so simple, you said,

"Maybe you're not as scared
as you think."

And you were right.

I jumped and I was fine.

I still say it to myself
sometimes when I get nervous,

which is a lot.

I don't know.

Maybe you're not as scared
as you think.

Maybe you got this.

Nurse,
how we looking?

Levels are good.

We're gonna get
started, okay?

Okay, Doctor.
See you on the other side.

I think we should begin.

System on.

Initializing body scan.

It's all over. You were great.

Did it go okay?
Without a hitch.

I had some weird dreams
during the procedure.

Yeah, it's completely normal.
It's just the anesthesia.

And that is not permanent.

It's just to cover up the scars
until it heals.

And you see the psoriasis
is all cleared up.

Just be careful
on your way down.

Nurse, can you sign out
Ms. Lake for me?

Someone at reception will
schedule a follow-up,

all right?

Is that it?
You are good to go.

Thank you, Doctor.
How do you feel?

I feel good.

Hi. I'm Samantha Lake.
Hi.

And I'm here to pick up my cat.

- Okay. What's the cat's name?
- Salem.

Like Sabrina.

Hmm?

Sabrina
the Teenage Witch.

She had a cat named Salem, too.

Yeah.

No one has ever gotten
that reference.

I get the reference.

Yeah.

Yes, you do.

Shut the fuck up.

You think you'll actually
get to meet her?

Well, it's at her house.

Yeah, but there's probably
gonna be, like,

a lot of people there.

You need to text me
the whole time.

Okay, I'm done.

You go ahead. I'm staying on.

Freak.

My babies. Happy holidays!

Oh, gosh, you look gorgeous.

Did you end up
getting divorced?

I know. I know, I'm so happy.

Come on.

I've seen you. I've seen you.

How are you? Happy holidays.

Hi!

How is your, um...

So, how's your family?

- Oh, they're doing...
- They're great.

They're great. Wonderful.

Um...

Excuse me one second.

You go get a drink. You, too.

Samantha Lake. My God.

I heard you came
into the clinic.

I told the guys
I wanted to meet you.

When my mother was sick,

we watched every episode
of your show.

Oh, wow. Um...

I'm so embarrassed.
No, don't be.

I mean, sure,
it's a little cheesy.

We fucking loved it.

Plus, it kept us from cutting
each other's heads off.

And you look...
exactly the same.

Oh, well, thanks to you.
Stop it.

Who did you have? Tennyson?

Uh, Dr. Hubert.

The best.
Plus, he's, like, hot, right?

Um, yes.

Walk with me
while I check on the kitchen.

Okay.

- How tall are you?
- Five-three...

Oh.
...and a half.

I'm five-eight.
Just reached it this year.

Grew, inch and a quarter.

You got taller?
Yeah, every skin cycle.

I mean, you wouldn't think that
that little extra would matter,

but, ooh, let me tell you.

Nobody said
it would make me taller.

Mm, mm, mm! Oh!

So fucking good.

Um, you don't cook?
Do you cook?

No. I mean, not like you.

I have watched your entire
Chef Class series.

Aw, you're so sweet.

Well, I love learning.

Just last week, I was
at this Greek fishing village

learning how to make
a traditional stifado,

but we did it with fish.

Oh!

Anyway, next time you're here,
I'll make it for you.

Wow. Well, I don't know
what that is,

but I feel like
I'm going to love it.

How do you not know her?

- I've never seen her.
- She was on the Heart show.

Oh.
Mmm.

It's like
a guilty pleasure.

Don't you think there's a...
Samantha.

Honey, look over here.

Don't we look related?

Oh.

Ki... Kind of.

Like we could be cousins.
Maybe.

Second cousins.
Yes.

Absolutely.
See?

I knew it.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I see it.

Let's all thank our lovely host
for this gorgeous meal

with these gorgeous faces.
We love you, Zo.

Thank you. Bon appétit.

Bon appétit. Cheers.

Hmm.

This is delicious.

What is it?

Mm. It's me.

Yeah, really.

Normally, we throw out
the old skin,

but it's very protein-rich,
almost no fat.

Well, almost.

Wow.

I think this is the best
you've ever tasted.

Mm, you would know.

I've had a lot of her.

Mm-hmm.

You like it?

Mmm.

Beautiful.

Touch of gray,
the wrinkles around the eyes.

Mm.

It suggests a depth and sadness,

don't you think?
Yeah, totally.

Yeah, but for a woman,

I mean, you chose
the perfect moment.

You're glowing head to toe.
Thank you.

We...
Thank you.

Okay, we're going swimming.

Okay.
Join us.

Creep.

I'm so sorry. I was just...
I was looking for the bathroom.

It's fine.

All these people...

Sometimes I just need
to center myself.

Um, I think I might head...
head out soon, so...

Oh, you're not gonna bitch out
already, are you?

I have to f...
I have to feed my cat.

I remember the first month
of treatment

was the most fun I ever had.

You don't feel that way?

I do feel it.

But, um...

When I first told my mom
I was moving to L.A.,

she said,

"No matter how much
you doll yourself up,

they'll still notice
that you don't belong there."

Mm. She sounds like
a real bitch.

I think she's probably right,

'cause I'm always the girl
with the run in my tights

or the food in my teeth.

I don't see any food
in your teeth.

You are the personification
of pulchritude.

Good word, huh?
It means "beauty."

I love it
'cause it sounds disgusting.

You need to get out
of your head, Sam.

When you understand
how others perceive you,

it's much easier
to get what you want.

I want you to do something
for me.

I want you to look
in this mirror...

and do not leave this room
until you make yourself come.

- Zoe, that's...
- Yes.

You got it.

I want you to see how I see you,

how the world will see you
going forward.

Confident.

Strong.

Sexy.

I'll know if you didn't do it.

At that rate, it's just so late.

One moment,
everything was perfect,

and then... we met.

And it all just fell apart.

I just wanted for so long
to be noticed.

I wanted them to look
at me and think...

that I was smart or...

funny or...

...pretty.

I guess I just wanted you
to look at me

and see someone else.

And that's a cut!
We've got it.

Thank you.

Good job, Sam.

All right,
moving on. Scene 11's next.

I was looking for you.

Come inside. The kids
are gonna play us something.

Okay.

Mm.

They're so good.

I MEAN, I'M...

...speechless.
I know.

Well, Rafi is the dark horse.

He wanted a harp.

And we were like,
"What about a cello?"

And... But he wanted that harp,

so I got him a fucking harp,
and he actually plays it.

How are your kids so young?

It's the B.I.

Keeps your uterus
fresh as a daisy.

Ronny didn't want children,

but I knew I would wear him down

one day.

Luckily, we waited.
It's a real time suck.

Mm-hmm. Where is Ronny?
I don't think I've met him yet.

Oh, no, we don't
live together. No.

We're...
non-domestic co-parents.

People think it's weird,
works for us.

We still sleep together.

Hey, Doc?

Mm-hmm?

What's taking so long?

Patience.

All good things come
to those who wait.

But I'm starving. Hurry up.

What about Hubert?

Oh. I'm...

I don't know.
Yes. He is age-appropriate.

He's attractive. He's smart.

He's rich.
Exactly.

I think he can do
way better than me.

Oh, he'd be lucky to have you.

What? You're in this cool
new movie, you're...

funny, and you're...

Well, okay,
you're not that funny...

...but you're hot.

Thanks.

You're way too nice to me.

No.

We're friends.

Friends tell each other
the truth.

Can I tell you a secret?

Oh, yeah.

So, Shannon isn't
my real last name.

It's not?
Mm-mm.

No. My real last name?

Zilt.

It's Zilt?

My last name is Zilt.

It's awful.

It's, like,
Norwegian for "venison."

- Like the meat?
- Like the meat.

Changed it my senior year,

never looked back.

Well, my name's not
my real name, either.

You see?

We're both pretending
to be someone we're not.

I like you.

Thank you.

We should be friends.

Best of friends.

Please.

You two are inseparable.
I've been replaced.

You literally have no good
snacks anymore.

It's all Shell food.

- It's healthy food.
- Exactly.

You're turning into Zoe.

Soon you'll be
60 percent flaxseed.

Look, if you don't want to do

this assistant thing,
it's totally fine.

You volunteered, but if
you're not comfortable...

No, no, no, no.
Wait. No. I do.

Okay, well, maybe start
with the unpacking, then.

Okay. Geez Louise.

Aw...

Look at this.
This is not unpacking.

This is looking at things.
No, no. Look.

I look terrifying.
Yeah.

Well, we both do.

Mm. Skinny, though.

Well, we were 12, so...

...everyone's skinny.

What's that?
What's what?

On your neck.

What do you mean?

What...?

That?
Yeah.

Do you feel that?
Well... Yeah, what is it?

Is that a mole?

I don't have a mole there.

So, is it a bite?

I don't know.

Can you feel that?
Yeah, don't touch it.

I don't know.
Get that checked out.

Okay.
Okay.

Okay, can you please continue?

You were on a roll there.
Yes. Yes.

Of course.
You had one thing out.

Uh-huh.

Where do you want all these
precious photo albums to go?

Um... try the living room.

- Thank you.
- Got it.

All right.
I'm gonna count to three, okay?

'Kay.

You know what?
This is a sticky guy.

Three. Two.

Got it.
Ow.

Now, I'll run a biopsy.

But I don't think this is
any cause for concern.

It's too early for
the molting thing, right?

Correct.

Though the coloring
is a little unusual.

This is just excess skin.

It might spread a little more
before it dissipates,

but this is totally benign.

Okay.

I'm going to prescribe you

a topical cream,
to be on the safe side.

Also, on the back
is my cell phone.

Just in case there's a moment
where you, you know...

In case I wake up
with six toes?

Exactly.

I'm Detective Flores.
This is Detective Abramson.

Nice place.

Thank you.

Uh, I'm still unpacking,
but, um...

Sorry, do you want a coffee
or tea, or can I get you...

We won't take up
too much of your time.
Okay.

You're a patient at
the Shell clinic, correct?

Yeah. I was just there.

Oh.

And you also had an appointment
on the 12th of December, right?

I'd have to check.

Sorry, am I in trouble
or something?

Well, I hope not.

Did you have a conversation
with another patient

when you were visiting that day?

Chloe Benson?

Um, I signed an NDA,
so I don't think...

Is everything all right?

Ms. Benson's missing.

- Missing?
- Yeah.

That day at the clinic,
that was the last time

- anyone saw her.
- Wow.

We checked with all her people,
and no one's heard from her.

Including you, I'm guessing?

Yeah.
We spoke to her family.

They mentioned that you two
had reconnected, so...

we were just wondering
if she'd reached out.

Um...

No. We don't know
each other very well.

I was her babysitter.

A long time ago, obviously,

so, yeah.

No. Sorry.

Hopefully,
she'll turn back up.

But if she happens to reach out,
do us a favor and call directly.

Okay.

My wife and I are big fans

of Hannah Got a Heart,
by the way.

Oh.
It's a nice show.
It's very funny.

Thank you.
Well, all right.

Honestly,
maybe they're not real cops.

They're probably competitors.

I've heard stories--

scams, spies,
trying to scare people into

spilling info
about the procedure.

They've been trying to figure
out our formulation for years,

and they cannot get
the science right,

and I've heard
they've made people sick.

Like, deformed. It's...

abhorrent.

These people will do...
They'll do anything.

Gracias.
They seemed like
real cops to me.

Well, honey, you can be
overly trusting.

Yeah.

Maybe you could talk
to someone, you know,

find out if Chloe's okay.

It would just...
It would make me feel better.

Consider it done.

Mm. I have to get this.

You. Want to go away
next weekend?

St. Barths?

- Mm.
- Hey, I'm on.

How's your cabana boy?

I thought you'd be arrested
by now.

Okay, just don't do anything...

Disarmed.

This is an emergency.

You must connect me with the
city electrical generating...

Shit.

Oh, my God.

What are you,
hitting the bottle again?

Huh? You a little drunkard?

Okay.

Hello?

Sam?
Yeah?

I didn't know who else to call.

Something's really wrong
with me.

Who is this?

They're always watching, Sam.

Chloe?

Chloe?

They're always watching.

Sam, what time was the call?

9:00, 9:30?
It was around 9:00.

Yes, on her home phone.

Copy. Yeah.
We can't get around that?

All right, got it.

Yeah, thank you for checking.
All right. Bye.

It was a blocked phone number.

So it was probably just
someone prank-calling you.

I don't know, I mean, why would
she have your home phone?

You're scratching a lot.
Can I get a coffee?

Sorry, I just didn't sleep
at all last night. Thank you.

Yep.

Sam? Ten-minute warning.

Just a minute, please.

And they're waiting for you
in hair and makeup

whenever you're ready.

Sam?

Hey, sorry.

- Your latte, madam.
- Thank God.

- Do you have any Advil?
- Ooh. Um, I don't,

but I can go ask the medic
if they have any.

Yes, yes. That would be great.

Thank you.
Okay.

Oh, also,
your Vanity Fair interview's

happening like now.
Okay.

He's been waiting for a minute,

so you might want
to go outside...

Can we please just
reschedule that?

Sam, it's Vanity Fair.

Hi. Hey. Um, we're almost ready.

Would you like me to have
wardrobe grab your shorts?

Um, is it a medium?
Uh, a medium and a tight. Yeah.

Okay. So, are we gonna see
the shorts on screen or what?

I don't think so, but I...

Well, it doesn't matter,
then, does it?

It's cool, Sam. You can wear
the sweats in this one.

Thank you.

Sammy, Sam, Sam. What's up?
Hey, hey.

All right, here we go.

Let's lock it up. Roll sound.

Seventeen, take one. Marker.

- Okay.
- And action.

So, are you gonna
arrest me or what?

I'm thinking about it.

Now, that's a cut.

All right, we're gonna go again.

Hey, that was really good,
but we need a beat

before the kiss.
I took a beat, yeah?

Right, but a longer beat.

Okay, longer beat.
Just say "longer beat," yeah?

I took a beat.

Yeah. Um, do you mind,
in the kiss,

just a little less
breathing on me?

Because I'm not
feeling too great.

I'm... I'm kissing you.
I got to breathe.

Yeah, that's true. Okay.
Yeah. Yeah.

All right,
we're gonna go again...

It's fine.
...Let's lock it up. Roll sound.

Seventeen, take two. Marker.

Okay.

And action.

Um...

So, uh... so, you gonna
arrest me or what?

I'm thinking about it.

What the fuck? What the fuck?

Did you see that?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Was that blood?

Sam?
Sam, you okay?

Sam?

Sam? Sam?

Hi, Samantha.

Simon from Vanity Fair.
Hi.

I was hoping we could
get an interview...

What the fuck?

What is this?
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.

I'll get you a towel
in just a...

I'm so sorry.

Please don't print that.

Sam.
No.

Sam. Sam. Sam.

You okay... Do you want me to

get you a medic or something?
No, leave me alone. I'm fine.

Sam.
I'm fine.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Sam.

It's Bob.

We just wanna make sure
everything's okay.

I just need some privacy.

Please don't come in.

Sure thing, kid.
Anything you need.

Anything at all.

Where is she?

Sammy?
I'm here.

I got your message.

I'm so sorry.
No, no. I'm here, baby girl.

I didn't know what to do.

Zoe, I think something's
really wrong with me.

All right.
We'll take care of that.

We'll take care of that.

Thank you.
Okay. We'll clean it up.

All right?

We'll clean it up.

This is my driver, Cornelius.

I called the clinic.

They're sending someone
right away.

Whatever this is, we'll fix it.

Did you speak to Hubert?

No one told you.
Um, he was let go.

Let go? Why?

Some blowup with Brand.
Who the fuck knows?

I'm gonna make you some tea.

Thanks.

Rosa, can you bring us some tea?

Yes, Miss Zoe.
What about Chloe?

Did you hear back about her?

Hmm?

The girl who went missing.
Oh, Chloe. Yes. No.

I asked around, and apparently,
she moved to Paris.

Paris?

Some modeling job, I think.
Huh.

Maybe we should reach out
to her directly,

because if the same thing...

happened to her...
I'm not gonna call

some random girl in France
that I don't know

just to make you feel better.

Look,

you're freaked out
about your skin.

I get it.

I'm gonna go check on that tea.

Where'd you go?

Sorry,
I just had to use the bathroom.

Try this.

It'll make you feel better.

What?

Don't like it?

No, it's... still hot.

Who'd you call?
Hmm?

Hmm?

When I was in the other room,
I heard you call someone.

Sounds like you called
a couple people.

Unless you were just
talking to yourself.

Oh, maybe.

I'm sorry,
I am a little out of it.

But no, I didn't...
I didn't call anyone.

So, I think that
maybe I should go.

You mind if look at your phone?

What?

Well, I mean, if you
weren't talking to someone,

do you mind if I take a look?

If you're telling the truth,
you can call me a crazy cunt,

and we're done with it.

I want to go to a...

Sam.
I want to go to a doctor.

Honey,

you need to stay here.
No, I'm...

- I want to go to a hospital.
- Take a deep breath.

Take a deep breath.

Why... why are you doing this?

Doing what?

Trying to keep me here.
You sound paranoid.

I'm acting like someone
who cares about you,

which you probably
don't understand

because your mother raised you
to feel shitty about yourself.

Sorry. It's true.

You need someone you can trust
and who knows.

I don't know if I do...

trust you.

Wow. Okay.

That's fucking ungrateful.
I'm sorry, I just,

I know you feel like...
You don't know how I feel,

and you don't care or you
wouldn't be turning on me.

Turning on you?
Yeah.

This isn't about you.
This isn't about me?

What do you think would happen
if you walked out of here

with these disgusting things
on your body?

You think that would
help my stock price?

You think that would be good
for my fucking brand?

You know what they call a woman
trying to improve themselves?

A punch line.

Every botched Botox injection
is a cautionary tale.

"Oh, God, did you see
what they did to her face?

It's so sad."

And then, if you let
nature take its course,

you're dismissed
as "old" and "irrelevant."

"She aged gracefully."

Now, that's just
another way of saying,

"She is wrinkly and unfuckable."

But we have a solution now.

We can maintain
our sexual power,

and we can live
without judgment.

So I am asking you...

nicely...

do not fuck all this up.

Rosa!

Oh, fuck!

Get in! Get in!

Sam, come on! Get in! Get in!

What is happening? Sam.

Ow! Ow, fuck.

Are you okay? Okay.
Go, go, go.

Go, Lydia. Go!

Okay, okay.
What the fuck, Sam?

What is going on?
Fuck.

Why are there people
chasing you?

Okay. Oh, fuck.

What is that?
On your hand. What is that?

Oh, shit.

Sam, is that from the treatment?
I don't know.

You're gonna be okay.

Was that Zoe's house?
Yeah. Yeah.

That was a cool house.
Yeah, it's really cool.

Yeah, it was cool.
Fuck.

Are you sure you don't want me
to go in with you?

I'll be all right.
Just stay here.

Okay.

I'm sorry. I didn't get lunch.
You want to order something?

What happened to your ankle?

Have you seen this before?

Mm.

I think this has something to do
with why Chloe disappeared.

And now it's happening to me,
and I'm...

I'm scared that
they're gonna do something

to try to keep me quiet.

I need your help...
Slow down. They?

Yes, Shell. Zoe Shannon.

"Zoe Shannon," Zoe Shannon?

What do you think would happen

if you walked out of here

with these disgusting things
on your body?

You think that would
help my stock price...

Mm-hmm.
...you think that would

be good for my fucking brand?
Stop the recording.

What?

You can't record people
without their knowledge.

California state law.

Aren't you worried
about the NDA?

Fuck the NDA. I need a doctor,
and I need protection.

Just think about this carefully.

Nondisclosure agreements
are a powerful document.

You know, in fact,
you've already put yourself

at significant legal risk.

You might want to reconsider.

You're in a tough spot.

Don't make things
harder for yourself.

You work for them.

Look, we can take you
someplace safe,

get you help right now.

All that stuff about Chloe?

It's true. She's missing,

and we want to find her
for her own protection.

Just like we want to help you.

Hi.

Samantha,
you're sick. Okay?

I don't really think that
there's much of a choice here,

is there?

I mean, given the specificity
of your condition?

I think we should get you back
to full health,

and then you can explore
your theories.

Okay.

Okay. I'll pay.
You can ride with us.

I'm just gonna use the bathroom
before we go.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, fuck.

Shit.

Mm. Flores!

Hey.

Move!
What the fuck?

Get out of my way!
Taxi2Me.

Get the fuck
out of the way!

Taxi2Me!

- Hey, hey! Hey, hey!
- Stop! Move! Move it!

Don't know
where she went. You see her?

Abramson! Over here!

Hurry up!

- There she is!
- Oh, fuck. Goddamn it!

Come on.

Welcome to Taxi2Me.

You are in a 25-mile-per-hour
driving zone.

Please buckle up

for your safety.
Faster. Can you go...

Excuse me, could you
go faster, please?

You are in

a 25-mile-per-hour driving zone.
Go faster, you fucking fuck.

It sounds like you want

to submit feedback
about my driving.

Is that correct?

Please remain seated
with your seatbelt fastened.

It appears you are trying

to use manual drive.
Yes.

No problem.
You can sign up

for free using the Taxi2Me app.

Are you fucking kidding me?

Please do not
damage the vehicle.

That's her right there!

Speed up a little bit.

Whoa, slow down, slow down.
Right... right there.

Why are you driving
so fucking slow?

Hey, pull over. Pull over.

Pull over!

Uh, speed up right here.
We can cut her off at the light.

Prepare to stop.

Traffic light ahead.

Light, light,
light, light, light!

Jesus Christ.

Accident ahead.
Would you like to reroute?

- You'll save seven minutes.
- What?

Yes, yes, yes, yes,
yes, yes, reroute.

Rerouting now.

You lost 2.8 pounds.

That means you lost 1.12%

of your body weight, giving you
an overall total of 6.42.

Alicia, that puts you

in last place
of the leader board right now.

You are in jeopardy of being...

Do you have any ice cream?

Come on in.

Whatever's happened to Chloe,

Zoe knows.

I know there's something
she's not telling me.

Sorry, I just, I didn't know
who else to call.

Okay. I don't mean to scare you,
but we don't have much time.

I got to get you to the clinic.

And the drive is long,
so let's go.

Come on.
No. Fuck that. Do it here.

Painkillers. You'll need 'em.

All right.

Here we go.

This is to help you breathe
and protect your eyes, okay?

Breathe normally.

I'm gonna put you in now, okay?
Give me your hand.

It's okay. It's okay.

Keep going. Keep going.
We have to do this. Come on.

It's gonna be a little bit more
than you want.

Just, you have to sit.

There you go.

There you go.
You need to go down.

You need to go down.
Just go down.

I'm gonna push you down, okay?

I'm sorry,
but we have to up the pH levels.

I know it hurts, Sam. I know
it hurts. No. It's okay, Sam.

Trust me. It's almost done.

Breathe. It's okay. Breathe.

Breathe.
Keep breathing for me, okay?

It's almost done.
It's working, Sam.

It's working.

Oh, I should've knocked.
I'm sorry.

It's gone.

Thank you.

Oh. Just sucks
you don't do sprained ankles.

This is for you.
Oh. Breakfast in bed.

All I had to do was grow
a bunch of scales.

Well, it's good you came
when you did.

Yeah.

Look, I'm just gonna say it.
I'm really sorry.

There were a lot of things
I didn't know about

what they were doing, and...

kind of talked you
into the treatment.

I... I just feel, if I knew...
Well, you're right.

It is all your fault.

That's coffee.

Um, I'll be right back.
Okay.

How do you take your coffee?

Just take it black, please.
Thank you.

Oh. Scared me.

Why do you have
a prescription bottle

with Chloe Benson's name on it?

Okay.

I can explain.
Great.

I mean,
Chloe was one of my patients,

and her skin began to calcify,
just like yours,

and...

you know,
she came to me for help,

and we...

started a relationship.

Yeah.
Oh.

I don't know.

Listen, I know it sounds crazy,
but I love her.

God help me, I still do,
even now that she's...

Even now that...
that she's what?

Okay. I'm sorry.
I can't actually talk

to you about this, so...

Did you do something to her?
No.

I tried everything I can
to stop it,

but I might have made
things worse.

I don't actually know. I...
Where is she?

Stop this for a second.
You can't see her.

She here?
Sam. Sam, you can't see her.

Okay?
Chloe?

You can't... Sam.
Samantha, stop this.

Chloe?
Come back.

Sam. Can you just stop
for a second?

Chloe, can you hear me?

Chloe?
She can't hear you.

Chloe.
Stop.

I'm trying to protect you, okay?

Hey, just please stop. Stop.

Just stop, I said. Stop.

I don't want anyone
to get hurt, okay?

- Let me go.
- Okay?

Fuck. Fuck.

- Chloe?
- Sam!

I don't know
what they'll do to her.

- Sam!
- Chloe?

Sam! Open the door!

Sam? Open the door.
Open the door.

Fuck.

Who are you people?

Where am I?
My name is Randolph Chan.

I'm a lawyer
for the Shell Group, and, uh,

this is Dr. Brand,
our CEO and founder.

Let me be the first
to say that I am truly sorry

for what you experienced.

We were all as shocked
and disturbed as you

to learn
of Dr. Hubert's actions.

- Where's Chloe?
- Oh.

Uh, you'll be pleased to know
she's safe and sound.

She's, uh, here at the clinic
with our finest doctors,

where she'll receive
the best medical care she can.

Under the circumstances.
What happened to her?

Well, um, like you, uh,
Ms. Benson suffered

some unfortunate side effects
from her last procedure.

In certain patients,

these epidermal calcifications
become somewhat irregular.

We were very transparent
about the risks involved.

If you had read

your nondisclosure
agreement carefully,

it was right there
in plain English.

I don't care what it says.

I will talk... to an attorney.
I will talk to... reporters.

- Go ahead.
- I... I...

Lawyer up, Sam. Call the press.

Let's see where that takes you.
I... I...

I don't think it's gonna take
you anywhere very lucrative.

Especially considering
that you will not have a career

to support yourself,
not when we're done with you.

And then your psoriasis
will return.

Along with relentless
cell deterioration,

crow's-feet, saggy skin,
gray hair. Come on.

On and on and on.

Um, in...

anticipation
of your discretion, uh...

we put together a proposal,

including a generous
share package

and life-long treatments
at the clinic, free of charge.

- No...
- Fuck, Sam.

Don't be so naive.

People die every week
on penicillin.

Every move forward
in medical science

has consequences,
but the health benefits?

They're undeniable.

Is the science perfect?
Not yet.

But when you want
to make an omelet,

you got to...
Kill some people?

Take the offer, Sam.

You have a chance
to be a strong woman

achieving full potential.

And you get to look
amazing doing it.

- Why?
- Because you can, uh,

realize success. To be accepted.

Why?
Why what? Stop saying "why."

Why is it necessary?

Now you're just being obstinate.

No, I really want to know.

Why do I have to care
whether I look amazing or not?

Oh, Sam.

Because we're animals.

There's only so much room
at the top of the food chain.

So you care what you look like

because how you look
determines who survives.

And you care, or you wouldn't be

sitting here right now.
Mm.

You need me
to believe that, right?

Because if I didn't,

or if it...
if it wasn't true, then...

you'd have nothing.

Can you even imagine it?

A life that wasn't
just lived on the surface?

I bet you can't.

Zoe Zilt.

So, in regards
to your little offer...

...I'm good.

Thank you.

I'm going home,
and I'm taking Chloe with me.

She's not going anywhere.

Make the call.

Bring her in.

I hope
you're not squeamish.

Hubert's attempt to remedy

Chloe's symptoms
only accelerated her mutation.

As with the other
affected patients,

we see the same pattern
of runaway calcification

and cell replication.

But in this unique case,
the growths are so extensive,

the new enzymes have overpowered
her cellular structure.

She's no longer human.
She's something more...

crustacean.

I think we can both agree
that she...

Chloe needs to stay here.

At the clinic,
where she's receiving

expert medical attention.

Chloe?

That glass doesn't break, right?

Oh, fuck!

Shit.

Shit.

Sam!

Sam! Sam!

Open it. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

I thought you forgot
all about me.

No, of course not.

Are you okay?

No, I'm not fucking okay!
All right. Stupid question.

Okay, so we have to
get out of here

because Chloe turned
into a giant lobster

and she's running around
trying to kill everybody.

What?

Shit.

Come on, come on.

Where do you ladies
think you're going?

Oh, give it a fucking rest, Zoe.

But, Sam... the optics.

Samantha.

It hurts me...

when you turn on me like this.

I saw myself in you.

Sure, I'm taller, I'm richer,

I have better business acumen
and upper arm definition.

But we wanted the same thing.

A friend, a gal pal,
someone to confide in.

You know it was me, right,
who got you cast in that movie?

No one would hire you,
not even after the treatments.

And I felt bad.
I had pity for you

because your life,
it's just so pathetic.

I should have known
you weren't built a winner.

Mm.

You think I just had
all of this handed to me?

You got to take it.

How's that
for upper arm definition?

Oh, fuck.

Oh! Sam!

System on.

Sam!

Sam!

Sam.

Sam, come... Come on, Sam.

You should've called me.

I didn't want to scare you, Mom.

You can call your mother
anytime,

no matter what happens.

Thanks, Mom.

Aw.

I'm gonna go find that nurse.

And a stiff drink.

So funny.

That, of course, was a scene
from Hannah Got a Heart,

the show that
first introduced us

to the incomparable
Samantha Lake.

Let's start with the book,

Skin Deep, The Rise and Fall
of a Cosmetic Empire.

I know there are various
lawsuits that still

need to play out,
but tell us about it.

I truly hope that
my story and this book

can serve as
a cautionary tale and...

I don't know, maybe give people
a little bit of hope.

Does it surprise you

that Shell continues to be
a successful business?

People want to look good.

- Right?
- Yeah.

I get it. So do I.

It's no longer
the most important thing

to me in my life.
Mm.

And...
I'm a lot happier for it.
