Original subtitles

You've made her look like she's asleep.

Thank you.

Plum, our favorite lipstick.

I don't remember telling you that.

Well, that's why I always ask for photos. It helps with the little

details.

Just like her real hair before the cancer.

I always use the same wig maker. She's very good.

You build a picture?

I try.

Are you happy with everything?

Yeah.

It's just like you knew her.

The real her.

I'd just like to sign at the bottom.

Okay. Thank you.

Now, as I, uh...

Explain. The cremains will have to be specially treated so they can become

possible, as you've requested. So you're looking at a minimum of two weeks, I'm

afraid.

We're going to plant a magnolia tree.

Sorry? A magnolia?

For Jasmine's mother.

Yes, good choice. Good choice.

The tree's flowers represent dignity and purity, I believe. Very nice.

Baby, all right?

Jasmine. Just leave me alone.

I made you your favorite.

Bought you some more food, babe.

You haven't touched your food again.

Morning,

baby. Hey.

I'm fixing your favorite.

Eggs over easy and bacon crispy.

I can't find Mom's scarf.

The blue silk?

You check the car?

Oh, I'll do that.

You call work back, babe?

Yeah.

I quit.

You did what now?

Calvin. Jazz, come on. I can't go back right now.

I just can't.

Okay, well, how long?

You must have a time frame in mind, right?

Jazz, you barely eat, sleep.

I don't know what to do.

Do we need help?

Like a grief counselor.

Can they bring Mom back?

What about me?

What about us?

Don't I count for anything?

I left her to die all alone.

I should have been here.

You weren't to know.

The doctors didn't know. They said it came on suddenly. I should have stayed

that last time I came home. I should have stayed right here.

Jess. I thought we had years.

How could I have been so stupid?

Look, I know you feel broken.

But we don't have to be broken.

I know. I need to get through this on my own, my own way. By beating up on

yourself? You think that's what your mom would want? Stop it. Jazz, I'm just

trying to help. You can't fix this.

I don't want to have to think about you and your feelings.

There's no fear.

Look.

Go back to the city.

I need to stay here.

I need to sort out mom's stuff, collect her ashes. We can go back together, deal

with all of this. Oh, just stop. Why not? Please, just stop. Jazz, just

listen to me. I want you to go. But you're not thinking straight. Just

listen to me, please. Please, I just, just stop.

Sure this is what you want?

I can't drag you down with me.

Come here.

I'm gonna call you every day.

Just pick up.

Hey, hey, hey.

I do. I just need time.

Steak and fries.

Every time.

Don't you get bored?

Uh-huh. I like what I like.

Got a friend?

Don't eat circles.

Peas, sprouts, even apples. I mean, come on, look what he's missing out on.

Chef's got a whole new menu. Let me get it for you. No, no, thank you. Oh, come

on, make him happy.

He loves when regulars try his new stuff.

Hello, Jasmine.

Maybe this?

Yeah.

Blue was her favorite color.

Yes, I think that's a perfect choice.

Here, let me put your mother's name on it.

It's ready for your mother now.

How are you, Jasmine? Are you coping?

Not so great, to be perfectly honest.

I guess you're used to, you know, in your line of work.

You know, when two people shared a special connection, and that's what I

see with you and your mother.

Not everybody has that in life.

You and your mom?

She, um... She passed away a few years now.

Oh.

Very well suited to this industry.

She never really settled in this country.

I'm sorry.

You have no need to apologize. Like I said, not everyone has the same

connection.

You're lucky, that's all.

Uh, right.

I didn't want to take up any more of your time. Oh, listen.

What about that pot of tea, I promise? Oh, no, no, you don't have to. Please.

When my mum died, I found a tremendous comfort in talking.

I think we humans, we just don't talk enough. I think sometimes we just need

the right person to listen.

Here we are.

Now.

She was...

She was everything to me.

She had me young.

Too young, really.

Had to cope all by herself.

She was funny, you know?

Strong.

And, like, super protective.

I told her I hated her.

God, so many times.

I never meant it, but I knew it hurt her.

And now I can't say sorry.

I've got all the sorries and I've got nowhere to put them.

Uh, you have been...

Really kind, but I... I don't want to take up any more of your time. No, you

are very welcome, believe me.

Now, you don't have to, but would you like to help put your mother's remains

into this?

Some people find it helps with closure.

Yeah.

Yeah? Yeah, sure, sure. OK, we're just through here.

The formaldehyde, you get used to it.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Like I say, you get used to it.

Yeah, I'm not sure I'd ever get used to that.

Over here is where I reserved your mother prior to her final showing.

It's Kelvin.

You want to get that?

Um, no, I won't. I'll call him later. Okay, so let's get to Mum.

I must say, I'm surprised Kelvin isn't here.

It's a big deal.

Your mother's cremains.

Well, actually, he wanted to.

And her name is Carol.

Carol Sutter.

Have you chosen a spot?

What?

The tree.

The magnolia tree?

You know what?

You're right.

Kelvin should be here with me. He wanted to.

I'm gonna come back with him.

You're leaving without Mom?

Please stop.

She wasn't your... I'm gonna go.

Thanks. Really.

How are you feeling?

It's okay. It's all right.

I'm not going to hurt you.

I'm not going to hurt you. Listen.

You're going to have bruises. May I make some suggestions for when you're in

there? You're crazy sick.

No, no, no. Listen.

Listen. I'm not going to hurt you.

Like I said, you're going to get used to things down here.

Let's get you up.

Up we get.

There we are.

Easy. Here.

Here.

Come on. You know you want to.

Come on.

Look at her.

It wasn't so bad, was it?

Things will get easier.

Let's get you out.

Come on.

Here we go.

Let's get you down.

Is he unmoved?

Don't worry about them.

They do that from time to time.

Muscular contraction.

Simple biology.

If you just perch yourself there...

Let me out of here.

Please.

I'll just go home.

I won't say anything to anyone.

I think we both know that's unlikely.

No, seriously.

I'll remember how kind you were about Mom.

Yeah. You've made a mistake, like, a really bad mistake, but just let me walk

out of here.

And I can forgive a crazy moment. We all do crazy things sometimes.

You're alone here with a bunch of dead people. It's bound to, you know, you'll

mess with your head.

Yeah, well, people did always say that about me and my family, yeah.

You have family here?

Oh, not anymore.

I'm all on my lonesome.

People will.

Come looking for me.

Okay. Kelvin won't stop.

No, I think he might.

Why? Why would he?

Because he thinks you committed suicide.

No. No, he knows I wouldn't.

Does he?

Why are you doing this?

Why me?

I like you.

And I'm hoping if you give me a chance, you might get to like me too.

Now... Are your legs feeling heavy?

Whoa! Oh yes, there we are.

There we go, let's get you up.

Let's get you up.

It's okay.

Don't fight the drugs.

I follow every time. I'm very particular with my special friends.

First, I carefully wash and dry each part of it. Very gentle.

There's no need to rush.

Next, I remove any makeup. You see, I need a clean canvas.

Meet you all pretty and looking at your best.

Perfect.

No,

no. No, darling.

Don't talk, don't move.

You're dead.

I called about viewing the place.

The landlord is so sweet, but the boyfriend?

He seemed dangerous.

Have you owned this house for long? The original landlord just disappeared.

Wait, what?

I did some investigating.

I'm gonna figure out what happened. I found blood!

She's dead.

Oh my god.

Oh, don't worry.

She was a bit single.

Black tenant.

Watch now. Only on Lifetime.

She was.

Everything to me.

Would you like to help with your mother's remains?

You know what? I'm gonna go.

You know, when I first saw you, I knew you were the one.

Why are you doing this?

I like you. You might get to like me, too.

Kelvin!

You just need to give us a chance.

Get me out!

Girl in the Coffin. Watch now.

Only on Lifetime.

No. Jess?

Jessie.

You are never getting that butt into those.

They'll stretch.

Unlike my self-esteem.

Self-esteem's overrated to my mind. Oh, have you tried it?

Uh-huh.

And now the flies.

How about you fly?

You're a terrible mother.

Oh, I'd be good if I had a halfway decent daughter.

I'm actually a great daughter. Oh, yeah?

I'll be the judge of that.

Oh, no.

No, don't you dare.

You're a great daughter. Oh, who just busted pants.

It was all fair.

Jasmine! Where are

you?

I am so sorry. That was a long time, wasn't it? I had a funeral service.

You're a monster.

Don't say that.

Why do I have to stay in this thing?

Well, it's to protect you.

It's a coffin for dead people. Yes, but you won't get hurt when you're in there.

Here, take a seat.

Well,

may I?

When I'm not here, if you're in there, then I know.

You'll be safe.

So you locked me in for hours and hours with nothing for me to do or think about

except my mother.

I didn't think of it like that.

I just like the thought of you in there.

These two, my whole body feels stiff.

Tell us what happened.

Look, the deal was she'd answer my calls no matter what.

Every morning, every evening, and then she stopped.

And that was a few days ago.

Anything online?

Social media?

Nothing. She hasn't used any of our cards either.

You've checked in with friends, family?

Yes.

What about hospitals?

Look, after I called you, nothing.

Shouldn't you be out looking for her?

You say her mother died recently?

Miss Sutter wanted to be alone to deal with her grief.

Yeah, but this is different.

You say you were still calling at least twice a day.

What are you guys going to do to find her?

We're going to check with local police stations, see if anything's been called

in. I'll put out an alert for Miss Sutter with patrolling officers.

And that's it.

You clearly stated your partner wanted privacy.

Sure.

Yeah, use my words against me.

Officer Blass will take a full account of your own location and activities for

the past week.

So I'm a suspect now.

It's routine, sir.

I need to freshen up.

Oh. Yeah, um, padding might help.

Well, I have more upstairs. No, no, no, that's...

That's plenty.

Okay. I'll just be in the bathroom.

Alright.

These things take time.

People will come looking for me.

Let me out!

What do you want from me?

The clown was waiting for me.

The baby, it's coming.

Get the hell out of me new movies watch now

The

funeral

guy was the last to call her

Closed coffin.

Have you thought about flowers?

Perhaps we can keep it as simple as you like. Wouldn't have to cost much.

No flowers.

Pop wasn't that kind of guy.

Hated fuss.

Well, did he like his sports?

Did he have any hobbies?

I'm thinking of a keepsake that we can place on the coffin during the service.

It'll just be us, and our aunt and a few cousins, as fast as possible.

Okay.

Excuse me.

I think that's everything.

I'll show you how. Thank you.

You do know this seems a

strange kind of life for most people.

What did your friends think?

What friends?

You try telling kids at school that your mum and dad are morticians.

You live above the family business.

No, these were my friends wherever I've lived.

Must have been lonely.

Yeah.

You know, the body's coming from the coroner's with her.

No matter how she scores a death, heart attack, whatever it is, I'm the last

to see their face.

I look into their eyes.

And I swear most people die alone in this.

I learned that when I was young.

I'd sit up with the bodies sometimes all night. I didn't want them to be on their

own.

One time there was a boy who was much older than me and his parents just left

him and went back to work.

They left him there all day, all night.

And I didn't want him to be on his own.

It's all laid down next to him.

And I pretended to be dead as well.

Just cleared my head.

No thoughts.

Just calm.

And it was beautiful.

Anyway, I'm the last to hold their hands.

Like mom.

Yeah, like mom.

This is the one.

I work from this. You know this, the plum lipstick.

Clients never notice things like that, but you did.

You get what I do.

Do you think she was lonely?

Well, I guess it's what you think.

That's what really matters.

It's the never of it, you know?

Yeah.

Yeah, I was with my mum when she passed over.

Saw the regret.

A struggle.

One minute she was with me and the next... gone.

I remember closing the coffin lid for the last time and thought... I'll never,

ever see you again.

Hello.

Mr. Trevor, right?

Yes. I don't know if you remember me, but I came here not too long ago with

Jasmine.

Yes, the Sutter service, right?

Calvin, wasn't it? Calvin.

How can I help you, Calvin?

Can I?

Do you mind if I come in?

No. No, not at all.

Jasmine Sutter, she came in to collect her mother's cremains well over a week

ago now.

When she came in, how did she seem?

Seemed all right?

Well, she was upset, which is understandable, of course.

Did she look like she could... I don't want to say it.

Take your time.

You deal with grieving folks all the time, right?

Like, you know, you'd call someone.

A significant other.

Cops, maybe.

If you thought someone was a danger to themselves.

Well, if you're asking me, did I think Jasmine committed suicide?

No. Possibly. Yes.

No. You asked the question. I'm giving you an honest answer.

Family photo album. Did Jasmine ask for that back?

Did she take it with her?

Yes. Yes, she specifically came and asked for the photo album.

Jasmine was looking for a silk scarf that belonged to her mother.

I was wondering if she left it here.

Possibly could be. I don't know. Cleaners don't always hand everything

in. I'm ashamed to say.

Now, if you'll excuse me, my dinner's going cold.

Sorry to butt in on your evening.

Perfectly fine.

I'll show you out.

You haven't finished your dinner.

What did you say to Kelvin?

He, um... He thinks you committed suicide.

No, he doesn't.

What did he say?

Did he call the police?

Um, no.

No, he didn't mention the police.

What did he say?

He thinks it's time he moved on.

He's leaving?

Yes darling, I think he is.

You're lying.

You and your mother look so happy.

Don't you stomp off on me! Get your ass- Back in the house. It's not a house. A

prison. I'm not your little girl. You can tell what to do anymore. Well,

you're in my house. I don't want to be in your damn house. Well, take it up

with the law.

You ungrateful little... You're the... Don't!

I am your mother.

Not a bitch.

And I'm not the enemy.

God.

Mom.

Mom. What?

You need more than me.

A hobby.

A man. Oh, right. So now you know what I need.

Whoopsie-doo.

You think it's been easy for me?

I can't beat everything.

I can't.

I was the worst daughter.

I'm sure that's not true.

She gave up everything for me.

Never got the chance at her own life.

She was everything to me.

Would you like to help with your mother's remains?

You know what? I'm gonna go.

You know, when I first saw you, I knew you were the one.

Why are you doing this?

I like you. You might get to like me, too.

Elvis!

You just need to give us a chance.

Stop it!

Girl in the Coffin. Watch now.

Only on Lifetime.

He was screaming at me in the street. I was so scared.

Yeah. Maybe I was too strict.

Don't say was like that.

You're still that bitch.

It was only fear, you know?

Yeah.

They put you in my arms.

Only a young thing myself didn't hardly know what to do.

My mother wouldn't even talk to me.

Oh, but I wanted you.

From the minute I knew, I looked down at you, those eyes.

looking back at me, and I thought, you.

There you are.

Like I've been waiting for you all my life.

And I thought, oh, if a bull elephant crashes through that wall right now,

one.

Elephant's one thing.

Guess I'm trying to tell you, I really tried to fight this thing.

I know, Mom, but you gotta keep trying.

You've been a great daughter.

Will you stop with all the past tense?

We've got ears, okay?

Maybe even, you know, a cure in that time.

Okay? Let's just stop.

Sure.

Okay.

You ready?

You don't seem yourself.

You've been very quiet the last couple of days.

Now, would you like to get out of here for a bit? Watch me work?

Come on.

Hey, I... You got this, right?

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

This must be some mistake.

Afraid not.

Miss Sutter's ID was found in her bag, and her coat was found washed a little

further downstream.

I'm so sorry.

I don't believe it.

Obviously, we're still looking for a body.

She's not dead.

There's something freaky about the funeral home we used for her mother.

The guy there, he made my skin crawl.

The way he was looking at Jasmine.

Here we go.

Now, the mouth is a simple fix. What we do is we take a threaded

needle here and we will go up.

Through the glottal region, and we'll come out of the nostril.

Sharp tug, the mouth snaps shut.

We tie a strong knot, and it's all tucked inside the nostril, out of sight.

Now, this lady's a little riper than I would like, so here's the fun part. We

would mix the shades to get the right skin tone, and it's brilliant, this

stuff they make these days. It's like velvet.

Feels like skin. Feel that?

He was the last person to call her.

So you see that number? It matches the business card.

So I went around there.

I know.

But I had to.

He said to me that she came to collect her mother's ashes.

But before I left, the urn was still there. Why would this guy lie?

He made a mistake.

Checked his records.

Her name, the date, everything.

Maybe she couldn't have faced taking the ashes away in the end. No, no, no.

Because that's all that was on her mind since the funeral service.

If Jasmine was... If

Jasmine was gonna... She would have taken the urn with her.

Officer, please, you have got to come and check this guy out with me.

I don't think that's... Please.

All I'm asking for is a knock on the door.

You ask a few questions, and I'm out of here.

What do you think?

I think she's dead.

Yeah, but she still wants to look her best.

I see... I see what I do as a form of art.

Other people don't, but I do.

I mean, you said it yourself.

You don't... You're friends.

You don't actually... You haven't...

With the dead bodies... No.

No, how could you think that? Goodness me, no.

I didn't make weight today. Are you following our meal plan? Yes, always.

At least your parents' hopes and dreams don't rely on you being perfect.

Prom queen and winning the regatta, none of that's going to happen if I let

anything. What? Three over. That's impossible.

Kat, are you aware you're pregnant?

No one can know. How are you going to hide a whole pregnancy?

You cannot compete if you don't make weight.

Our prom queen, Kat Walker.

Someone call 911!

Crowning at the prom.

Watch now.

Only on Lifetime.

No.

No.

Turn around.

Turn around.

Come on.

Well, looks like he's out. No.

Try again. He'll be there.

Come on.

Sit down.

Sit down.

Hello. How can I help?

Nothing to be concerned about, Mr. Trevitt. Just a routine call.

Do you mind if we... Please, come in.

Like I say, just routine, Mr. Trevitt.

Any last contacts of Miss Sutter?

Oh, so she's still missing.

Some personal items were found in the river.

You did have your concerns.

It's just sad. It's so sad.

We just want to smooth out a bit of confusion on one point. You told me

Jasmine came to collect her mother's ashes.

Did I?

Yeah. Did I?

Well,

if I did, I'm not quite sure what it has to do with this poor girl's suicide.

Do you mind if I check your records, sir?

Not at all.

I'll go fix them.

Here we are.

Dear, I told you.

I'm sorry, I'm not sure I'm understanding your point.

Well, the point is, if Jasmine came to collect her mother's urn, why didn't she

leave with it?

I'm correct in thinking that is Carol Sutter's remains.

Mrs. Sutter's remains have yet to be delivered.

What?

Yes, I can show you. Give it a look.

Why would you call Jasmine if the cremains weren't delivered yet? I just

wanted her to know that they would be arriving shortly.

So, Miss Sutter came for them early, despite you told her they weren't ready?

No, you misunderstand. She came for her family photo album.

You remember, you were asking about it.

Well, if that's everything.

What was that?

Ah, that.

It was my cat.

Your cat?

That's a lot of noise for a cat, Bill.

She's always knocking things over.

I must have left the door open when I rushed up here.

You want to go close the door?

Maybe we should go check it out, officer.

I'd rob her if you didn't.

Respect for the dead.

We'll get out of your hair, sir.

Thank you for your time. Thank you.

You will let me know if anything crops up.

Sure will.

There's still something off about him. I tried.

Kelvin,

there's nothing I can do without a warrant.

You know he bravely lied to us.

There must be something you can do.

But you got how creepy the guy is, right?

Kind of in the job description.

Yeah, but more.

She wouldn't.

Not without a note.

She wouldn't do that to me.

What would you do?

I certainly wouldn't break in there.

Wouldn't leave my car too close either.

I'm right here, Jasmine.

I know what you're thinking. Can I make it through that door before he catches

me?

But your instincts are saying that would be a very silly thing to do.

So you've got a choice.

You can have a run or you can stab me.

But with an instrument like that, you'd have to be very precise.

I'm going to get it just this spot right here, just above my collar.

I have to warn you, Jasmine, there's going to be a lot of blood.

and arterial bleed.

So it'll spurt and pump in rhythm with the heart.

What is your choice?

That's all right.

Hey, it's all right.

Shh, shh, shh. Okay, okay. Don't be hard on yourself.

Go on.

You know, it's much easier when people are actually dead.

All right, let's get you back downstairs.

Come on.

Hey. Just get away from me.

Can we talk?

Go talk to your friends.

Well, I do talk to them all the time.

Just because I couldn't kill you, it doesn't... You couldn't kill me. That

means something.

It means nothing!

I take good care of you, don't I?

You prisoner.

Don't you get that?

You didn't invite me here. I didn't ask to stay.

You just need to give us a chance.

What us?

You locked me in a damn coffin and you... You do God knows what with dead

people. But I have you now.

Got any time limit to this?

Not really.

So, you put me in a coffin.

Dead bodies everywhere.

I'm never going to see the sun again.

I'm never going to see Kelvin again.

If he's over me, how come he came back?

I would have thought that's the police lady's idea.

Maybe she made him come. Maybe they suspect.

You're a liar.

You know, when I first saw you, I knew you were the one.

Whoop-de-doo.

Lucky me.

A day's gonna come.

And you'll want to stay here.

There'll be sun, and we can go for nice walks, and we'll be a family.

Your parents.

They... They worked you like a mini version of them.

You were so alone, you thought dead people were your friends.

In another life, I might even feel sorry for you. I don't want your pity. I just

want you to like me.

You can't make people like you. But you didn't kill me.

So... Because I didn't kill you, what, that means I must like you? People have

to choose to stay together.

You said your own mother's house felt like a prison.

All those nasty things you said.

Stop. All those sorries, nowhere to put them. Stop it. You push your own mother

away, and you push Kelvin away. No, no, no, he loves me, I know, I know. Your

mum loved you.

Too late now, she's gone. Stop, stop.

It's too late.

I'm here.

I'm here.

And I can take the pain away.

I really can.

I just need that trust.

It's alright.

I was going to wait to show you this but...

It's

Mum.

Did you... Did you win?

No.

No.

No.

Now you can talk to her anytime you like.

We could be together.

A real family.

I'll give you a moment.

I remember, Mom.

Okay.

Here's what I need.

You to go back to your life.

To Calvin.

He knows I have to stay. No, you don't need to be here.

You've done all you can. Mom.

No one can take away the time we've had together.

Mom, please stop.

All I ever needed to know that you're going to be okay.

And I do know that now because of you and Kelvin.

He's your rock, you're his rock.

All a mother ever wanted for her baby girl.

If I go soon, when I go,

I'll go happy.

Because I know there's someone out there who loves you just as much as...

Mom, we're talking. No oceans.

You're not going anywhere. A whole ocean out there.

You're not going anywhere. Listen, I need you to listen. Can you do that? I'm

asking this one time.

Can you do that?

I'm listening.

Live your life.

Yes, you and Kelvin together.

Mom.

You live.

You live and be happy.

As I go on, you.

Look at me.

I need you to promise.

I promise.

I get your intention, Bill, but I don't want Mom in that place.

I thought you'd be happy.

She wanted to be cremated.

A tree planted.

Right.

Well, we could plant a tree together.

You know, it really does take a while for cremains to become possible.

Understood.

Darling would you like to watch me work some more?

Sure.

There you are.

You look tired.

a tendency to consume me.

You need to relax.

I don't have to be dead.

I'm not sure I can do this. Of course you can, Bill.

It's why you wanted me here, isn't it?

It's what you dreamed about.

Someone to take away all that loneliness.

No, Bill.

It's just you and me.

My warm skin.

My heart beating alive.

Blood rushing through my veins.

Uh-uh. You don't need photos.

You're allowed to touch.

Feels good, doesn't it?

You shouldn't have come back.

You shouldn't have come back.

What was all that about?

What?

Running out like that without a word.

I, uh... You got scared.

I did.

I guess it's a big deal, dealing with a real person.

You said I was a monster.

That was then.

So what changed?

What you did for me for mom I'm not saying

it was the right thing to do but And it's not what she wanted but

Thank you

You'll never like me not really

what makes you so sure I Didn't think this through

rushed it

Just a middle book.

No end game. Yeah.

That's real life, Bill.

We go all over the place.

We go up and down and round and round.

End up where we started half the time.

Why do people do it?

I lived with Mom.

I loved every bone in her body and

hated those bones just as much the very next day.

What Kelvin you'll be thinking about?

I love him.

I'll always love him.

Even if he forgets you?

Could you love me?

Maybe. Don't you want to know how it feels?

What do you mean?

Bill, you know what I mean.

You spend your whole life wondering.

peace, calm.

Nothing can hurt us in the end.

We can let go.

Just let go.

All the loneliness, the hurt, the pain.

None of it matters anymore.

Perfect.

You know you want to.

It's okay.

Close your eyes.

These are gonna be so good.

Feels good, doesn't it?

All the people you did this for

and nobody to do it for you.

Fuck you.

Fuck you.

It's okay.

Shh.

It's okay.

Just close your eyes.

Don't move.

Don't speak.

You're dead, remember?

Yeah.

That's right.
