[ music playing ]

[ crying ]

Kai, this was
in your mother'’s hand
when she passed.

I am so sorry.

Your mother was
our spiritual leader.

We looked to her for guidance,

as one day
we will look to you.

When you are ready,
of course.

Kai, I'’ll fine out who did this
and put him away forever.

But this is an opportunity
for you to change

and start a new life.

Take it.

[ horn honking ]

He'’s gonna keep doing that.

[ horn honking ]

- [ horn honks ]
- Come on, guys.

I gotta get to my appointment.
I need my check.

You'’re a good daughter
coming here.

Not good. Guilty.

My mother was the spiritual
leader of our village.

She believed so much
in the power of the old ways.

She fought so hard
to keep tradition alive.

She spent all her time
using that to help people.

But me?

I drank, I stole,
ran with gangs.

Classic cries for attention.

You never though about

following in her footsteps
after she died?

I believe in a gun
and a badge.

The rest got buried
with her.

[ horn honking ]

And if he honks one more time,

I'’m gonna bury him, too.

Let'’s go.

Yes.

Dispatch: All cars
to the White Reef Resort.

- Homicide reported.
- Oh, no, no, no.

Hey. You guys done already?
That'’s cool.

Sorry, I just--
I hate cemeteries, you know?

I have this recurring nightmare

where everybody
I'’ve ever arrested

crawls out of their graves
and tries to eat my arms.

If you guys can get me
to my appointment quick enough,
I can tell that to my doctor.

We'’ll drop you off right after
we stop by the White Reef.

Wait, no.

- How'’s you guys know?
- They text us now.

[ monitor beeping ]

ETA ten minutes,
White Reef Resort.

My name is Alex Walker.
I'’m ex-DEA.

I quit the agency
because my friend and partner
betrayed me.

One of my first assignments
took me to an isolated beach

right here on this island.

I sold what little I had

and bought myself a gift shop.

Just peace.
No stress, no drama.

Boy, was I wrong.

[ radio chatter ]

Must be some mess in there.

Good.
I need something decent.

Ocampo keeps sending me
on these nuisance cases.

- Mm-hmm.
- Last night,

he sent me on a lead
that turned out to be a cow

tied up to a power line.

You still got paid.

I get any more broke,
I'’m going to start having

to give massages
to Taiwanese accountants
in the lobby.

- Oh, my God.
- What? No.

I'’m not really
gonna do that, Kai.

Man, I may have to do that.

I'’ve hit rock bottom.

Listen. All right,
I'’ll have dispatch
let Dr. Patel know

that we'’re going to be
a little late.

Ten minutes?

15?

Detective.

Man: Detective!

Ocampo:
There he is!

The man. The myth.

Chief. How you doing?

You still hiding behind
a desk pushing papers?

Do you see a desk anywhere?

I see it right here.

Oh! Hey, kid.

Huh?

You visit and Ocampo
is the one you see first?

Someone at the hotel
tipped him off.
There was a car waiting.

Ahh. Hard to be
the chosen one, hmm?

You want the title, take it.

My case load is murder,
literally.

I had to book a flight
to get away from the bodies.

Someone'’s watching you.

- Alex?
- Yeah. No, I know.

I just--
I dropped a seashell.

Oh. Got it.

Alex Walker,
meet César Rabara.

Walker.
Kai talks about you a lot.

Oh. All good stuff, I hope.

I call him to vent.

She says you'’re resourceful.

He'’s my mentor.
We have no secrets.

Ocampo: César!

You got a minute?

I told the men
you'’d take a look.

For old time'’s sake.

Oh, sure.

Coming?

This guy bats a thousand.

I bat a thousand.

Almost a thou--
high fours easy.

- Now you'’ve hit bottom.
- Who is this guy?

Making Kai laugh.
Kai doesn'’t laugh.

Rabara caught
her mother'’s killer
15 years ago.

- He get a conviction?
- The guy shot himself before
they could arrest him.

Rabara'’s case was bulletproof.
Got him transferred to Manila.

Drove Ocampo crazy.

He thought
the promotion was his.

Where are you going?

To watch Rabara do his stuff.

Come. Maybe you
can learn something.

Oh, I'’m gonna learn something?

Our victim'’s
a visiting professor.

He'’s mid-draft in a book
about pre-colonial
mythical traditions.

The assailant is local.

Fragments of kaningag,
a cinnamon plant
unique to Cebu.

Not present
are victim'’s shoes.

The killer didn'’t like
that an outsider

was poking around
the old villages.

The professor'’s kalangaytotems

were thrown against the wall.

In pre-colonial times,

these birds were everywhere.

Now they'’re threatened
with extinction,

much like
the old way of life.

Not that our perp
is stuck in the past.

He has one foot firmly
in each world.

He removed the bullet.

My guess--
wiped all fingerprints.

The killing
was execution style,
premeditated.

He wanted to stop whatever
our professor was publishing
from getting to press.

The question is why.

Figure that out,
you have your killer.

One other thing.
He'’s short.

5'’4".

Angle of trajectory.

[ monitor beeping ]

Sorry, sorry. Parking meter.

César, you'’ve got to stay on
and work the case,

remind Manila how
we do things on the island.

Chief, it'’s my time off.

Come on.

- What'’ll it take?
- Mendoza.

I'’ll take the case
if she'’s on it.

She doesn'’t have
the experience.

Kai or I'’m out.

All right.
It'’s just the three of us then.

Mendoza, you'’re on the case.

Thanks for that.
I'’ll put feelers out

for anybody who matches
your description.

- Not yet.
- Why not?

There'’s one detail
I left out in there.

The killer'’s a cop.

One of us did this?

Meet me at the station
in two hours.

Don'’t talk to anyone.

- Your boy'’s wrong,
and he'’s way too nice.
- Here we go.

The only people that are
that nice are car salesmen
and serial killers.

- You'’re afraid.
That'’s what this is.
- What?

You think he'’s gonna solve
this case faster than you can.

- I'’m not--
- No, sorry. We are gonna
solve it faster.

- That'’s just--
- What'’s gonna happen? Yeah.

Go massage a lawyer.
I have police work to do.

It'’s not lawyer, okay?
It'’s accountant.

And I'’m not gonna have
to do that.

I'’m probably
not gonna have to do...

I was wrong.
That was the rock bottom.

Ernesto,
he'’s Barbie-dolling her.

Barbie-dolling?

It'’s when you turn
someone'’s head around

so they see everything
backwards,

and then you melt the hair
and make the eyes really big.

You take something nice
and you turn it into something
terrifying and insane.

Don'’t-- the girls on the block
had dolls, I had a lighter.

- Alex, you blew up
her last undercover sting.
- I--

- Don'’t blow this one.
- He'’s gonna blow it
for her, man.

Ocampo'’s gonna
have her chasing

electrocuted pigs
for 20 years.

- They were cows.
- Whatever.

The guy'’s wrong,
and the proof...

...is in that room.

Let'’s see what happened.

Professor'’s writing his book.

Assailant enters.

Scary birds are still there.

Bang.

Hold on. Back up.

The blood.

Pattern'’s wrong.

Why didn'’t the blood
drip on the carpet?

There'’s no blood.

Where'’s the wastebasket?

- Really?
- Just doing a little yoga.

It'’s called the Happy Turtle.

You have no restraint,
do you?

- I do not.
- Why can'’t you leave
anything alone?

- This isn'’t about me, Kai.
- It'’s always about you.

- Well, he'’s got it wrong.
- Maybe you'’ve got it wrong.

- I don'’t have it wrong.
- Here we go.

Look at the blood pattern.

- And where'’s the wastebasket?
- Maybe the maid took it.

And just didn'’t bring it back?

Where are you supposed
to put your Kleenex

- or your murder weapon?
- You are a child.

I'’m not--
you'’re the child!

Good comeback.

I'’m telling you, man,
they got it wrong.

- Maybe.
No one bats a thousand.
- Thank you!

The splatter is the key,
all right?

If that computer was open
when the professor was shot,

that would have blocked some
of the blood, but it didn'’t.
It'’s all there on the wall.

That means the computer
was opened after he was shot.

The killer staged it.

He wanted us to see
what was on the screen

so that we'’d go the wrong way,
which Rabara did.

Can you get your hand--
can you get that computer
out of evidence?

I don'’t know.
Ocampo gets territorial
when Rabara'’s around.

Just don'’t let him see you.

Look, man, if we can figure
this out before them,

we can get Kai back
on the right track.

There'’s a problem
with the spatter.

There'’s evidence
of high impact velocity,

but something is off.

You should do it.
You know why?

Closer in height
to the killer?

That, and you'’re
a better shot.

But this is checked out to you.
I need to get it reauthorized.

- It doesn'’t matter.
- It'’s protocol.

Kai, there'’s a killer
on the loose.
Shoot the damn gun.

Harness a little of that girl
that I used to lock up

in juvie every weekend
when she was 14.

Perfect.

Sometimes you have
to let go a little
and trust your gut.

- Is that real blood?
- Always use real blood.

It'’s more accurate.
What do you think?

I think we need to get ahold
of the professor'’s computer.

Ocampo:
Make sure that it is done
as soon as possible.

Alamares,
what are you doing?

Making sure everything'’s
logged right.

I heard Manila'’s
paying attention now
that it'’s Rabara's case.

It'’s not Rabara's. It'’s mine.
Manila should know that.

- Got it, boss.
- Stay clear.

- That goes for everyone.
- Yes, sir.

- Hey, man.
- Hey. Be careful.

Ocampo'’s putting barbed wire
around everything.

- You own an iron?
- Yeah, I own an iron. Why?

You always look like
a thrown-out napkin.

How are we gonna make it
look like--

like it hasn'’t been
tampered with?

Let'’s see what the professor
was working on when he got shot.

"Similar to how
the Spanish were threatened
by pre-colonial mythology,

some youth moving
from village to city life

were angry toward
old traditions

and aggressive instances

of violent rejection
has occurred."

- That'’s weird.
- It'’s true.

The Spanish thought
the old ways were witchcraft

when they were really
just about finding a balance
between good and evil.

The thing that really
pissed them off was

the village leaders
were women.

That'’s just stupid.

Your doctor ever bring up
toxic masculinity?

No. Not that history
is stupid, man.

That'’s "Yay, women," okay?

I'’m saying the way
this is written.

Look at this.
Youth "were angry toward"?

Maybe hostile toward.
And then "instances"
conjugated in a singular?

There'’s no way
a professor wrote this.

I'’m tell you right now.
There'’s gotta be something else.

There'’s nothing.
No other files.

That'’s 'cause
you'’re thinking like a cop.

Or a killer.

You got to think
like a professor.

Or better yet,
how about an ex-DEA agent

that has to make his word count
on his dream journal.

You copy, you paste.

Your doctor falls for that?

Nobody wants to read
what'’s inside my head.

It'’s like if Stephen King
wrote a romance novel.

When you copy something,
it stays in the clipboard

until you replace it
with something else.

If we want to see
what the professor
was working on,

I mean, really working on,
all we have to do
is press paste.

"An impression from evidence
gathered in Cebu

will reveal the true killer."

What killer?
And what impression?

That'’s what we gotta find out.

The professor was working on
a murder case.

Hey, subpoena
his phone records.

Find out everybody
that he interviewed.

Ocampo will never
sign off on that.

- We could ask Rabara.
- No, no, no.

We'’re not going to
ask Rabara, okay?

He'’s just gonna--
he'’s going to want to do
all the interviews

and he'’s just
gonna mess everything up,

and then good luck
getting your evidence then.

That would have more weight
if you didn'’t just
tamper with evidence.

We gotta come at this
another way.

Search for all incoming calls
to the island, okay?

Anybody that called
the professor'’s number.

Ocampo has access
from his office.

- Good luck, buddy.
- Yeah.

Ocampo:
Make sure that it'’s done
as soon as possible.

- Chief?
- Do everything you can.

- Computer'’s gone.
- What?

César: Let'’s calm down.
I'’m sure it's just somewhere.

It has to be somewhere.

You guys request this?

Didn'’t realize you had
a courier service.

You run a tight ship here.

You know what they say.

What?

That I run a tight ship.

- You good?
- Yeah, great.

I said stay away
from this case.

Sorry, boss,
I was stalling.

You said you'’re the face
of the investigation.

I figured you didn'’t want them
looking at a key piece
of evidence without you.

Won'’t happen again.

It better not.

Three, two, one.

Mendoza,
let me see that laptop.

According to the records,
the professor called
the rental car company,

hotel, hotel, the airline.

- How'’s Kai?
- Seems tense.

Thank you.
Well, that'’s because
she knows something'’s wrong.

Nothing Rabara'’s gonna find
is going to lead them
to a Gloria Bautista.

- Who'’s that?
- Somebody the professor called.

Look it up on your phone.
Let me know.

It'’s Bautista.
B-A-U--

I can spell Bautista.

Can you spell orangutan?
Hmm?

I'’ll give you a hint.
There'’s no G.

- There'’s one G.
- O-R--

Gloria Bautista,
age 53.

She lives ten miles
from here.

Tomorrow we bring Kai
with us.

Why?

It'’s always better if a woman
interviews another woman.

You mean it takes her away
from Rabara.

Exactly.

- [ grunting ]
- Kai?

Ernesto wants you to follow
a lead with us.

There'’s no "us."

You'’re not on this case.

In fact, you'’re not
even on the force.

I know, but I'’m trying to help
because I'’m thoughtful.

You'’ve never thought about
another person in your life.

Okay.

Sorry, bud.
Mind if I cut in?

Listen, Kai, all right?

I'’m worried about you.

[ grunts ]

You don'’t need to worry
about me, Alex.

I'’m a big girl.

Besides, I'’d rather play
with someone who respects me.

Is that better?
Are we cool?

'’Cause we got a solid lead.

[ grunting ]

We have our own leads,
thanks.

Yeah, I know you do, all right?
But yours are wrong.

I don'’t need you to come in
and be the hero.

- I can handle myself.
- I'’m not trying to handle you.

[ grunting ]

Then what are you doing?

I don'’t know.

- I just got a feeling.
- It'’s called arrogance.

I'’m pretty sure
it'’s something else.

[ grunting ]

- I know you, Kai.
- You know me?

[ grunting ]

You have no idea who I am.

When my mother died,

when my mother was murdered,

Rabara gave me something
that no one else could.

Justice.

He let me see that
it was possible to get it.

And to give it.
Changed my life.

Gave me a purpose.
Made me stronger.

I'’m not saying
that you'’re not strong, okay?

I know that you'’re strong.

I'’m just saying maybe

you'’re blinded by emotion.

- Blinded?
- Yeah. I--

[ grunting ]

Then what am I not seeing?
Please tell me.

Other possibilities.

It'’s called the Angry Frog.

Now come with me.
It'’s one lead.

[ groans ]

- Don'’t tell me what to do.
- Okay.

You came to this island to get
out of the police business,

so get out.

They couldn'’t
get your shoes clean,
so I bought you new ones.

Oh, how thoughtful.

He'’s thoughtful, huh?

Guy'’s a tool.

I don'’t-- I don't know how
he ever solved a crime.

Rabara grew up in the villages,
so he knew everyone.

Applying forensics in a place
usually policed by superstition,
he cleaned house.

Well, there'’s more to it
than just forensics.

[ British accent ]
Ms. Bautista.

Professor Thornton.
We spoke on the phone.

This is my research
assistant Fidelio.

Fidelio, yeah.

You sounded different
on the phone.

[ clears throat ]
Well, a little bit
of a head cold.

Apologize for that.
Is-- can we step in, please?

It'’s a lovely place
you have here.

Kalangay. Beautiful.

And in remarkable condition.

Well, some of us still hold on
to the old ways.

Mm, a good thing that is, huh?

If not, my work
would be impossible.

Ms. Bautista,
did your husband believe

in the old ways as well
before he passed?

Professor,
why did you come here?

I told you on the phone

I have no interest in talking
about my husband'’s suicide.

It'’s been 15 years,

and I just want to forget.

I understand.

But if I may ask,

are you absolutely convinced
it was suicide?

You already asked me that
on the phone,

and I answered you.

- Right.
- Please stop torturing me.

I'’m sorry.

I need you to leave,
please.

I need to lie down.

And, Professor,
please don'’t call me again.

That kalangay totem,
it'’s almost identical
to the professor'’s.

Yeah. Suicide in a Mactan
village 15 years ago.

Same year Kai'’s mother
was killed and her killer
committed suicide?

It'’s too coincidental.

And as you said,
the totems match,

which means they were both
from this village.

But what did the professor
want from her?

I don'’t know yet.

The only thing I'’m sure of
is these cases are connected.

We need to see
the original case files.

Kai: [ sighs ]
It'’s execution style,

but the detail of the wound
tells us more.

There'’s no evidence of anxiety,
no drift in aim.

The shot was right through
the middle of the head.

- Which means?
- Which means this guy'’s
killed before.

He'’s a cop.
Could have been
in the line of duty.

I crossed that with anybody
who'’s trained in crime scene
collection procedure.

- The wiped prints.
- I pulled anyone between
5'’3" and 5'6"

who grew up in a small town

but moved to
a metropolitan area.

A foot in both worlds.

Came up with ten suspects.

We need to narrow it
down further.

What about motive?

Stop the professor
from publishing the book.

That was just a book.

His theories
weren'’t even new.

We'’re overlooking something.

What? He'’s a white guy
from England.

The only connection
to the material

is that he'’s been here.

Hang on.

He'’s been here
on this island for months.

So?

He'’s been looking
at evidence on violence

towards pre-colonial
traditions.

Maybe in the process,
he stumbled upon
the perp'’s first murder.

The killer finds out
someone knows his secret,

he wants to take him out.

That'’s his motivation.

We need to get
these guys in here.

- Not yet.
- Why not?

Because if
the killer'’s motivation

is to cover up an old crime,

there'’s another lead
that just became very important.

What?

Not here.
I'’ll tell you on the way.

[ door opens, closes ]

[ footsteps approaching ]

[ door opens, closes ]

The murder of Diwata Mendoza.

The last person to check it out
was the professor, a week ago.

Bingo.

He was looking into her murder
and he found something.

Do Rabara and Kai
know about this?

Not specifically,
but Kai thinks the assailant

killed the professor
to cover a past crime.

Yeah, like killing her mother.

This is what
the professor stumbled on,

this marking right here.

Is that the death blow?

No, maybe part
of the struggle.

Struggle with who? Gloria?

[ grunting ]

I don'’t think Gloria
was strong enough.

Then her husband.

[ grunting ]

[ thud ]

I don'’t think it was
either one of them.

The professor didn'’t get
an impression, he saw one--

a physical impression,

enough to cause
Diwata'’s scalp to bruise.

I know this.

- Paper?
- Over here.

This is an unopened
receipt pad.

You do actually
sell things here?

Just draw it, man.

César:
We make a good team.

- You can'’t beat history.
- Our history sucks.

- [ chuckles ]
- It'’s pain and death.

- Oh.
- Screw our history.

You know,
I spent so much time

resenting my mother
for never being around.

She was always going
from house to house,

one crisis to another.

Some of them spiritual,
all of them crazy.

Or at least
that'’s what I thought.

But now I know
what it really was.

She just really loved
her people.

She just wanted them
to feel safe,

whatever that looked like.

You know, she just--
she just couldn'’t help herself.

- She was almost like a--
- A cop.

Yeah. Hey, thank you
for sticking around.

It'’s nice to know
there'’s one person on my side.

Just try to get rid of me.

- Alex, you know what this is?
- Yeah.

Kai'’s ring.

I got this mark from her
when we were sparring.

We'’re supposed to believe
Kai killed her own mother?

No.

But somebody wants us
to believe that.

[ phone beeps ]

[ line ringing ]

- Come on.
- [ phone vibrating ]

- [ phone beeps ]
- Who'’s that?

No one important.

She'’s not picking up.

This is not good, man.
It'’s not good.

Has anyone seen Mendoza?

Uh, she left with Rabara.

Do you know where
they went?

No idea.

This is all the evidence
that points to the killer.

Alex, Kai fits all of these.

Yeah, so does Rabara.
Look at this.

That was taken 16 years ago.

16 years ago?

That'’s a year before
Kai'’s mother was killed.

Look at Rabara'’s hand.

- It'’s Kai's ring.
- No. It'’s his.

When Kai'’s mother was killed,

the killer took all
of her jewelry.

The only piece they found

was the ring
she was holding in her hand,

Everybody assumes it was hers.
What if it wasn'’t?

What if she grabbed it while
she was fighting for her life?

[ grunting ]

Rabara killed Kai'’s mother.

Yeah, and he'’s gonna kill Kai.

I know where.

I don'’t understand.
What are we doing here?

This is the lead.

This is my mother'’s cemetery.

Trust me.

Rabara killed Kai'’s mother,

framed
Gloria Bautista'’s husband,

- then made it look
like a suicide.
- Yeah, exactly.

But why did
he kill Kai'’s mother
in the first place?

She figured out
he was framing people.

That'’s how he bats
a thousand, huh?

You make up a crime
and you blame it
on somebody else.

That'’s why Ocampo
was going through
all of his past cases.

He'’s always known
something stinks.

The professor saw
a picture of the ring
and he pieced it together.

Rabara had to take him out
or he would have
gone public with it.

But the only problem with that
is you create another loose end.

But if he cleans that up,
then he'’s in the clear forever.

But that means you have
to get another person to take
the fall for three murders.

- Kai.
- Yeah, he'’s gonna frame her.

And he'’s gonna kill her.

Someone'’s playing with us.
I'’m going back.

No, no, no.

No. This is a joke.

Where did that lead come from?

Did Alex send this to you?

I bet you it was Ocampo.
He'’s doing it again.

Come on.
Do you see any cow anywhere?

A cow?

In a power line? Remember?

I didn'’t tell you about that.

Sure you did.

You called in that lead.

You made sure I was alone
when the professor was killed

with no alibi.

You brought the actual gun
to the firing range

and made sure
I was the only one
who touched it.

You collected his actual blood
from the crime scene

and put it in a dummy'’s head

just so you could get
the DNA evidence on my shoes.

You'’re framing me
for his murder.

Well done, Kai.
I knew you'’d figure it out,

though it took you longer
than I thought it would.

You know what your problem is?

You want too badly
to believe in things.

You'’re like your mother
that way.

Know what your problem is?

You stand too close.

[ grunting ]

Now that'’s the Kai I remember.

[ grunting, yelling ]

I missed this rage.

Nice to see it
come out and play again.

It'’s too bad
you can'’t control it.

It'’s going to get you
killed some day.

[ grunting, shouting ]

[ screaming ]

You made me trust you.

You made me think
you believed in me!

And the worst part is

you made Alex right!

[ gun cocks ]

Over there.

Over there.

- [ siren wails ]
- The cemetery.

He'’s going to make it
look like a suicide.

Why would Kai kill herself?

Guilt over her mother,
you know?

I mean,
it'’s a believable story.

She kills the professor
to keep him from exposing her.

An old friend comes into town

kicking up all these
feelings of remorse.

Everybody'’s seen her
acting strange,

so she ends it all,

alone, in the only place
that she can'’t escape.

It'’s perfect.
Except for one thing.

She'’s not alone.

Kneel.

Rabara:
Diwata Mendoza.

How I miss
her judgmental stare.

You know what the irony is?

Your mother and I
were in the same business,

ridding the world of evil.

The only difference
is I created mine.

You'’ll never get away
with this.

Get away with it?
I'’ll be decorated for it.

Don'’t be so sure.

Why me?

You were my friend.

You were my family!

Why would you do this?

Because he killed your mother.

And he'’s gonna frame you
for it, too.

No.

No one would ever believe
I would do that.

Everybody knew you hated her.

I didn'’t hate her!

Maybe you don'’t now,
but I was there.

Remember?
You made her life miserable.

If I hadn'’t killed her,
you would have.

Kai, don'’t.

Kai, put the gun down.

When I was 15,

he told me he would
give me justice.

Now he can.

Yeah, but that isn'’t you.
You'’re not a murderer.

Maybe I am.
I don'’t know anymore.

You have no idea

what it'’s like
to be stabbed in the back

by the one person
you trust.

Yeah, I do.

And betrayal eats you alive,

but you can recover.

You pull that trigger,

and there is no coming back,

and you can trust me on that.

You become someone else.

Yeah? Who is that?

Me.

Look,
I'’ve made bad choices,
bad decisions.

I'’ve let people down
that cared about me,
that depended on me,

but that is not you,
all right?

And you know that.
Ernesto and I know that.

Your mother knew that.

So, please, huh?

Put the gun down.

Let'’s lock this guy up
and throw away the key.

What do you say?

Kai:
You have the right
to remain silent.

- You'’re weak.
- [ grunting ]

I said silent!

Book him.

Love to.

I'’ve been waiting
20 years to do this.

Lock him up.

Why doesn'’t this feel
like a victory?

Maybe a victory
is somewhere else.

I knew he didn'’t do it.

He loved your mother.

I loved your mother.

She was very important
to all of us.

Your smile reminds me of her.

Thank you.

I guess we'’re both
victims here.

Not anymore.

No, not anymore.

[ music playing ]

[ sniffles ]

Mom, I'’m gonna make you proud.
You'’ll see.

[ music continues ]

I wish you could have
seen this island before
all the developments.

I did.

It was a special place.

Still is a special place,

even under all the mega resorts
and the nightclubs...

and the memes.

A meme'’s a thing,
not a place.

Man, no wonder no one
will drive me there.

Speaking of which,

how about giving me a ride
to my appointment?

How about I call you a cab?

- Call me a cab?
- Yeah.

After I talked you
off a ledge?

You'’d be a murderer right now
if it wasn'’t for me, huh?

Let me explain
to you something about
human interaction, okay?

When someone gets you
out of the electric chair,

you'’re obligated to give them
a ride wherever they want
to go for, like, a month.

- Why don'’t you just buy a car?
- '’Cause I can't
afford a car, okay?

I'’m rubbing attorneys,
remember?

Kai:
You own a gift shop, Alex.

Alex: Yeah, well, come in
and buy something, Kai.

I got snowglobes, man.

I got suntan oil.
