- Okay.

(gentle music continues)

- [Torsten] Oh, Jennifer, I was thinking

of coming by your office today.

I know you've forbidden me but I assure you I'll be good.

I'm so scared why people never see each other anymore.

What happened with the human contact?

Or was it never there (chuckles)?

Anyway, I need you darling.

Hm, totally.

(gentle music continues)

(lid thuds)

(washing machine beeps)

(doorbell rings)

- Miss Sutton?

- Yes.

- I'm Detective Santoro from the CCV Homicide Division.

- What's this about, Detective?

- [Detective Santoro] Do you have a minute?

I need to speak to you.

- About what?

- You're the reporter, right?

- Well, yeah.

- Have you heard about the two murders

about the women that worked at Rigby's?

- Rigby's?

- You wrote that financial inaccuracy article

about Rigby's Corporate awhile ago.

- Yeah.

- Do you have a minute?

I'd like to come in.

- I'd really rather not.

- This is very important.

- Look, give me about 20 minutes.

Meet me down at the park.

- These two women, Tina Rockford and Susan Combs worked

at Rigby's and they were murdered in the same vicinity.

- Yeah, it seems like a robbery to me.

- Highly unlikely.

They were both killed with a razor and a weapon

we can't identify and look, similar blunt trauma.

- Well, how does this involve me?

- Well, I know you cover business now,

but when you were in the crime division,

you're always like two steps ahead of us.

I mean, you knew details and facts

that us detectives didn't even know.

- God, I hate business.

- For example, the Fallbrook murder.

You knew the murderer left a bag of jelly beans behind.

That wasn't even public knowledge.

- Well, I can't divulge my source.

- So you have a source?

- Look, why should I help you, Detective?

- Well, maybe if we team up,

you can give me some intel off the record.

- Mother fuck, I don't have time for this.

I've gotta go.

(birds chirping)

- To be continued.

(pensive music) (shutter clicking)

(Rick exhales)

- Yo, no soliciting.

- No, Ma'am.

Miss Sutton?

- Wait, how do you know my name?

- I, I, I...

I've something...

- Oi.

- Wait, wait, no, please.

I, I, I show you this, just please hold on.

(Jennifer groans)

- Fuck off.

- [Rick] No, stop.

(Rick panting) (gentle music)

(phone ringing)

- This is not what I ask you for.

I ask something you're writing

and you basically give me a generic review,

like some novice Yelper.

- Look, I hear you, but I've been working really hard.

I'm meeting your deadlines.

I'm giving you the filler content, but for my bigger pieces,

I just can't rush stuff like that.

- I know this is adjustment for you.

I know, but cooperate is up my ass right now

and I am paying you a pretty penny to be the best.

Now, faster!

- Yeah.

- I always believe in you.

Always have.

- [Torsten] Jennifer?

- [Receptionist] Sir.

- What is this shit? - Sir?

- [Torsten] Jennifer!

- Who is this asshole?

- Oh, shit. - Where's my baby?

- Sir, you can't go in there. - Where's my girl?

Jennifer. - Can you go call the cops?

- Okay. - You can't just come

to my job like this, I've already told you.

- I told you I needed you.

I need you to come with me now.

Come on. - No, absolutely not.

You can't be here. - Come on, Jennifer.

- No. - Come on, let's go, let's go.

Get your hands off of me.

- Calm down.

Don't make the troubles here.

Fuck out of here.

- Hey. - Get your hands off me.

(fist thuds)

- [Jennifer] Oh my God.

- Shit.

- What are you doing?

You can't just- - Who's that asshole?

Get your hands off me!

- No, you guys, just, hey! - Get off, buddy!

- [Jennifer] Stop!

Stop!

- Get him! - Stop!

- [Torsten] Jennifer!

(solemn music)

- I like what you have presented to me.

It's all in order, everything.

Except there's one thing.

- [Vanson] Mm hm?

- I don't like the dollar amount.

You can do better than that.

- But Mr. Willis, it's far more than your company is worth.

- Oh, so I see you're gonna be insulting are you (chuckles)?

Well, you can insult my wisdom and my experience

that I use for rich, hard cash as I build assets

so that you Orientals can end up with a lot of money.

- We don't mean it this way, Sir Willis.

It's just that, well, today is a new world.

It's different.

You gotta get with the time.

- We know you've been cooking your books, Willis.

- Oh, so you're gonna be insulting again, are you?

Well, guess what?

The deal is off.

Who needs you anyway? - What?

- We don't need you.

- Wait.

Maybe we could spice it up a bit.

We know you want our social media tech manufacturing arm.

Don't you?

- Yes, I do.

- Well, then it's all yours.

- Plus an additional 13 mil.

How does that sound?

- Orientals want to meet in a cancer burger joint.

What's in it for you?

- Meat is everything.

(Roger chuckles) (Vanson chuckles)

- [Roger] You know what?

- You're going to like it.

- I think you're right.

We have a deal.

All we need is one more deciding vote.

Hey, baby.

- [Narrator] In the year 1730,

during the rein of the Emperor Yongzheng,

one of the early emperors of the Manchu Qing dynasty,

many whom for which were recruited

by the Emperor, (phone vibrating)

and were told how to use that fearsome weapon,

the flying guillotine.

The purpose of this was to suppress

and cure the borders of the former Ming dynasty.

And many of those- - Jennifer, baby,

I miss you so much.

- Listen, I told you not to call my phone anymore.

- Jennifer?

(dial tone humming) (pensive music)

Shit.

(line trilling) (pensive music)

- Stop calling my phone.

(pensive music)

- Jennifer?

Jennifer?

Oh, fuck.

(phone thuds)

(pensive music)

- I'm so glad to see you.

I am so glad that you changed your mind.

The deal is gonna go through and it's gonna be great.

I really appreciate it that you're gonna

come through for this. - You're bloody perfect.

- And-- - Die!

(eerie music)

Jennifer?

- (sighs) You came here early.

It went so well.

Thank you so much for helping with that vote,

because it's gonna be a great deal.

I can hardly wait to see what's gonna happen.

- It's gonna be just-- - Filthy spy!

(Georgina screaming) (eerie music)

(upbeat music)

(shots firing) (upbeat music)

(doorbell ringing)

- Jennifer, Jennifer, please, please,

you need to listen to this time.

There's been more murders.

You need to let me in you, please.

- I can't help you, okay? - It involves, you, okay?

You need to let me in, please.

- Look, go to the cops.

I have no information for you.

- No, no, you need to know. - They'll help you.

- No, please, you need to know.

I need to tell you, please.

- I don't get it. - Please.

- [Jennifer] How does this involve me?

What do you need from me?

- If you let me in, I'll tell you.

Just-- - I really don't have anything

for you. - I want to help.

- I've gotta go. - Please.

- I've gotta go to work. - No.

- I can't help right now. - I wanna help.

Please, let me, listen to me!

You need to let me in.

You need to listen to me, just one minute.

Give me just one minute,

please, please. - Cool it.

Okay.

(Rick panting)

(birds chirping)

- We really shouldn't meet outside about this.

- Well, I wasn't about to let you in my house.

What is that?

(Rick coughing)

- Okay, so these (coughing)...

Okay.

So, these four girls, what do you see?

- Well, nothing out of the ordinary.

Beautiful, young, probably hooked

on drugs and hey, they're dead.

- Well, yeah, they're dead.

But look, look, all four died the exact same way,

and look at the dates.

It began after your story ran

and the employment of each girl, Rigby.

After your story on Rigby ran,

all of these Rigby girls are now dying.

- Hold on.

- [Rick] They're all roughly the same age

and they all go to the same school.

- No, no, no. - Your story set

- This is a joke. - it in motion.

What do you mean what does it have to do?

It began with your story. - You're trying to say

I run an article on some small mom and pop business

that's going under and having financial crisis,

and now I'm to blame for these girls going down.

Your little conspiracy- - You have everything

to do with it.

You have everything to do with this.

You started it when you ran your story.

- You're just looking for a little attention aren't you?

- Attention?

I didn't even wanna meet outside.

I wanted to keep this private.

I don't want any attention.

The second I have attention, I might be on this list.

I probably already am just being seen with you.

Don't you get that your story is what triggered this?

And then boom, dead, boom, dead, boom, dead, boom, dead.

Somebody in there is bad.

That's why everybody, there's somebody connected to them.

I don't know

who exactly that's-- - You're kidding?

I have nothing for you, all right?

This sounds like some weird conspiracy,

you're trying to throw me into it.

I don't need any more attention right now, okay?

Things are kinda crazy. - Throw you into it?

- Yeah. - This person is gonna

go after you next. - First of all,

I'm not gonna die.

I didn't start anything.

You want to take it up with somebody?

I see you already have Santoro's contacts

and good buddy, - Santoro?

- He's a detective.

Take it up with him.

Look- - This guy's connected

to the Rigby's.

- I don't want anything - This guy's connected.

- to do with this, all right? - This is about you,

you need to. - No.

(birds chirping)

(Jennifer sighs)

- The boss is in an extra special mood today.

- Oh, great.

- I'd watch out for him.

- Here's the files you asked for.

- Thank you.

(Jennifer sighs)

(energetic music)

(shots firing) (energetic music)

(cell door clanging)

(eerie music)

- [Torsten] Jennifer (exhales).

Baby,

I want to kill you,

murder you.

(Torsten exhales) (eerie music)

(food crunching) (Jennifer's tongue clicks)

(Detective Santoro knocking)

- Hi, Jennifer.

I tried calling, but you didn't pick up.

I don't wanna take too much of your time, but can I come in?

You always work here in the dark?

- [Jennifer] So?

- I'm actually here to help you.

- Why do you wanna help me?

- I like your work.

- Hm, come on, dude.

- Okay, I need your help.

I know you have your own deep throat,

but I don't want you to reveal the source.

I just need your help on something I'm doing.

Maybe in return, I can help you.

Such as that Omega fortune Chinese company,

you're writing about.

- Look, I need some fresh air.

(eerie music)

So these methods that you use,

I mean, they basically add up

to physical assault and extortion.

Look, I know you beat those kids

in Chinatown to get that intel before that CEO confessed.

Everyone knows you did that.

- That's exactly what I'm saying.

I mean, I know what we do, how we do it,

I'm not proud of it but we always catch

the bad guy in the end.

- [Jennifer] Not always.

- (chuckles) That's what I like about you.

You're not cruel like us.

You're more sophisticated, something our department lacks.

- So let me get this straight.

You wanna trade intel with me from tortured people

in order to help me with my Omega article.

(shutter clicking) (eerie music)

- No, no, not tortured, more like influence

under strong circumstances.

- Same thing.

- Yeah, I know.

Listen, there was another murder today.

Same thing she was, worked at Rigby's, different franchise,

same ownership, same age as the others.

Her name was Molly Fernwood.

- Shit!

(eerie music)

(buzzer buzzing)

- Hey, guard, when is it chow time?

I'm hungry here.

Come on, man!

(eerie music)

Oh man, thanks a lot, man.

I'm hungry.

I haven't eaten for two days, man.

What's goin' on?

Thanks a lot, man. - You're welcome.

- Appreciate it.

Mm.

Mm.

Real good.

Mm.

Mm.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

(man sighs)

(phone vibrating)

- Shit.

Of course.

(Jennifer exhaling) (phone vibrating)

Yeah?

(Torsten sighs)

Tor?

Is that you?

- Jennifer, baby, I miss you so much.

- God (sighs).

No.

- [Torsten] Jennifer?

(phone vibrating)

- What do you want?

- [Tprsten] You.

I want you, all of you.

- Ugh.

Look, it's not gonna happen.

Are you drunk?

(Torsten sighs)

- [Torsten] I will take you.

- Tor, get lost buddy.

- [Torsten] Jennifer!

- Fucker.

Shit.

(Jennifer sighs)

(crickets chirping)

(eerie music) (heartbeat pounding)

(eerie music) (man choking)

(eerie music) (heartbeat pounding)

- Well, I mean, I've been in this area a lot lately

because I'm investigating two different murders.

- I know of the murders.

- I know you have and my thing is that

like I said earlier before, I've always admired you

and I always feel like you're always

two steps ahead of the curve.

And with me with homicide, we come in,

a lotta times evidence is gone,

witnesses are gone that we wanna talk to.

But you as a reporter, seem like you get

in there early enough and I just wanna find out,

is there anyone that maybe I've missed?

- I don't really know what you want from me.

I don't think I can help you with this specific case.

- I think we can work together.

- Look, I'm really just kind of a lone ranger

when it comes to this sorta thing.

I work alone.

- Yeah, don't we all?

(Jennifer sighs)

Anything else that you can tell me?

Anything out of the ordinary or anything?

- I mean, there's been this weird dude

coming around my house, just conspiracy vibes,

knockin' on my door.

He just won't fuck off really, but that's it.

I have nothing.

I have nothing for you.

- What does he look like?

- Just your typical, sweaty guy that thinks

he knows how to uncover all of this mess

and I'm just not interested in talking to him.

- Well, that's very helpful.

See, I feel like if we work together,

we can find out the truth behind these murders,

get the facts. - I've got enough drama

in my life right now.

I really don't need to go down this road, okay?

So, I don't really know how to put it for you.

I have nothing for you.

- Look, the only thing I'm asking for is just think about it

for a couple of days, okay?

- Well, I've got a lot to think about friend.

- We all do.

I'm trying to get to the bottom of this.

Let's just try to do something

before something else happens.

That guy comes back, let me know.

(eerie music)

(food crunching)

(Jennifer sighs)

(phone ringing)

- Hello?

(eerie music) (birds chirping)

- [Victoria] Miss Sutton?

Miss Sutton?

- Yeah.

- Victoria Harris.

- And how do you know me, Victoria?

- I've read your articles about the whole mess at Rigby's.

I knew Tina Rockford.

In fact, I was really good friends with Tina Rockford.

- Look, I'm sorry about your friend,

but why are you coming to me with this information?

- The thing is, the week before she was murdered,

she wasn't herself.

She was just so, so restless,

and she kept referencing this woman named Gretchen.

- Gretchen?

- Yeah.

Gretchen was paying her for information

on Rigby's except it seemed like

she kept wanting more and more information from her.

The whole thing just seemed kind of disingenuous.

The day before she died, she wasn't herself.

She kept speaking nonsensically.

The whole thing was just really awful,

and I'm kind of scared.

(solemn music)

(phone ringing)

- Yes?

- [Gretchen] I have something you want, my dear.

- What's this about?

- [Gretchen] Meet me at the lab's warehouse at 3:00 p.m.

- I'll be right there.

(eerie music)

Hello?

- [Gretchen] Jennifer?

Jennifer?

- Gretchen?

(eerie music)

- Well, that's not my real name,

but let's just stick with Gretchen for now.

- Why meet here?

- Isn't this a glamorous atmosphere?

I figured it was time for a meeting tete-a-tete.

You know, face-to-face with all the hacking and all.

- Look, you want something more from me, right?

Money?

Could you just tell me what you know about the murders

of Tina Rockford and Susan Combs?

- No need to jump ahead.

Let's just say the plot's thickening, new players involved.

Agatha Christie didn't introduce new characters

this early in the second act,

but I know who you've been talking to lately.

- Okay, Miss Marple.

Just name your price.

Look, I don't want this fucking job.

My boss is an asshole and he's all over me.

And now I'm standing in some random warehouse meeting

with strange people.

I must have a death wish.

- I'm gonna make you a star with this, Jennifer.

Think Allah, Woodward and Bernstein.

- Okay.

- I'll meet you again in two days with an update.

Any place you choose,

I just needed to find out

what (speaking in foreign language)

you have meeting me here.

And now I see that you're

a real trooper dedicated to your craft.

Not easy in these crazy times.

- Hey, wait.

- You'll be hearing from me.

Toodlaloo.

It's Detective Santoro.

- Hey.

- [Detective Santoro] I couldn't track you down.

I thought maybe you took a sick day.

(Jennifer chuckles)

- I did not.

- [Detective Santoro] Can you talk?

I wanna share some info on all this.

- That sounds great.

How 'bout later?

a older fella, Mav Berger.

He was an electronics tycoon,

and ever since then we kept in contact

and he sends me a case of wine now and again.

- No bribe.

- Ha.

- I'm joking.

I sure do like a fine wine.

(Detective Santoro chuckles)

My mother used to cook the best pasta.

She used to get this amazing Chianti too,

from the local grocer, Mr. Vera.

It was bottled in Naples.

- Oh, is that where you're originally from?

- My mom was Greek

and my father's second generation Italian,

so I guess I'm one up on the culinary upbringing.

- Do you always cook in your jacket?

- I do, I shower and sleep in it as well.

I also cut the grass in it, too.

(Detective Santoro laughs)

I think I pulled it off this time.

Like really.

(gentle jazz music)

- No, no, no, no, no, not while I'm tipsy, Mister.

- Oh, you're more tight lipped than Woodward and Bernstein.

Tough girl you are.

- Well, it's like the oath of a journalist.

You've gotta protect your sources to the very end.

- What if your child were in danger?

- I don't have a child, I have cats.

- Hm, what if your job were in peril?

- I would take my money and I would

go to an island somewhere for awhile.

- Well.

- Hey, what are you lookin' for there, Detective?

- I'm just curious where

such award winning information comes from.

- Hm.

Well, what can I say?

People just trust me.

- Hey, does that thing work?

- You like popcorn?

- Yeah, I sure do.

- Well it works.

Shall we? - Yeah.

and many of neighbors fell from the new weapon.

Those who escaped went into hiding.

It was to seek these remaining rebels out and kill them,

that the governments and the noted masters

of flying guillotine Fung Sheng Wu Chi.

(gentle music)

- So, is this what you call inconspicuous?

- I like the peace here.

- I like the dark noir.

Factory was dark.

What makes you so sure we're not being watched?

- Look around, there's nobody ever here.

- Oh yeah?

Help!

Help!

Okay, you're right.

- Okay.

So, tell me a little bit more about the murders

and those innocent girls dying.

- Why jump the gun?

- Well, because I'm tired and I'm hungry and quite frankly,

I've given you enough money by now

to not have to meet you in person on the daily.

- They weren't so innocent.

There were whistle blowers deeply involved,

more than you think.

Tina Rockford, she had her hands in a lotta things.

- She was just a young burger flipper.

- (chuckles) Youth, today.

They lead double lives, triple lives.

And that burger flipping,

it was just a guise so that

you wouldn't realize what she was.

- Meaning what?

- Meaning a little intel collector.

Smart little cookie.

She even had her own pimp.

(eerie music)

- This place is kinda creepy.

I mean, couldn't we have just met

at a coffee shop or something?

- Doesn't really fit in with my work,

especially with the nature of our business here.

Are you sure you're ready to take this on?

- I mean, how hard could it be?

I need the cash and you need the info,

seems pretty straight forward to me.

- There are risks involved.

Honestly, you're pretty young

and I was having second thoughts whether

to bring you into this world but-

- I know I look innocent,

but really I have more life experience than you think.

I mean, plus, if anything,

if I might be able to help us out,

people never suspect the young girls.

(Gretchen chuckles)

- I like the way you're thinking.

Maybe you are suited for this sort of thing after all.

It's all there.

- Okay.

- [Jennifer] Hm.

- Apparently, she was in high demand.

Pimp Johnny was convinced she had connections high up

in the food chain.

- It's not like you're any cleaner.

I know how you get your intel.

Shady shit for sure.

- Tell me where it shines in this world.

Look at you.

What do you do?

You report on the dirt?

- Yeah, but I get to go home

and take a shower at the end of the night.

Okay, just name your price.

- The dossier you have on Victor Jensen,

the CEO of Precise Industries.

- But that guy is just a small time entrepreneur dude.

- Right.

Okay, so he doesn't mean anything to you.

No harm, no foul, right?

You hand it over to me and I'll hand

over information to you that is so fantastic,

you'll cream your jeans.

Hint hint, it's not just about the Rigby chain.

It's about the Chinese.

- Wait, and the girls?

- Uh huh.

- Wait, you're gonna extort Jensen.

Fuckin' I knew it.

(Jennifer sighs)

Let's not get too chummy, now.

- We've been chummy for a good part of five years now.

We've been in bed together fucking this whole time.

You just never knew.

Hm.

See you tomorrow.

Dossier.

Intel disc for you.

Toodlaloo.

- You people are responsible for this.

My daughter, my beautiful, sweet daughter.

She's gone.

She's gone!

- I'm sorry for your loss, Sandra.

Your daughter was a very special girl,

but we're gonna do everything we can to make this right.

Now, is there anything in her last few days

that could help us piece together this tragedy?

- Nothing's gonna help.

My baby's gone for good.

She had her whole life ahead of her

and gone in the blink of an eye.

- Sandra, I know this is really difficult

and I can't even imagine the pain you're in right now,

and I know she would want us to catch

whoever did this crazy, horrible crime.

- Did she mention anything

that will help us bring this fucker down?

- Nothing too outta the ordinary.

Normal teenage stuff.

She had been a little sketched out about her job.

So, she was looking for something else.

- Did she mention anything else about her work environment?

- She said management was under stress.

Also, she found some packages

that were out of place and a strange shipment

of sorts that made her uncomfortable.

(eerie music) (packaging rustling)

- Did she mention anything about

what might've been in them?

- I really don't think that's really important right now.

I mean, did she mention any names

or like a description of anyone that maybe

was at Rigby's that may have seemed out of place?

- No, nothing.

All I know is innocent girls are dying.

My little girl is gone, Detective.

I think I need some air.

- We're gonna do everything we can to get this killer.

Okay?

Thank you for coming in and answering our questions.

Here's my card.

Please, if you need anything, call me on my direct line.

- Yeah.

(eerie music)

- Hey, what the fuck was that all about?

You totally stonewalled me about those boxes.

We coulda used some information about those.

- Oh no, I was just tryin' to keep us on track and any way,

these interrogations they're short anyway.

We need proper facts.

I apologize for that.

Can I buy you a drink and make up for it?

- No, I'm gonna stay in tonight.

I have a lot of work to do.

(eerie music)

- Hey, Billy Boy.

- Hey Jennifer, what's up?

- What a fucking day.

- Oh yeah?

- Yeah. - Why?

- No, no.

You ever feel like you're just stuck?

I don't know.

I just, I've gone down every avenue

with the story I'm working on

and nothing seems to be clicking.

Maybe I'm just drained.

- Mm, well, when that happens,

I usually just step away from my desk

when I feel overwhelmed.

I definitely know what you're going through though,

with all the deadlines and everything.

- I haven't been here that long

and it feels like boss man just keeps dumping shit on me.

Like more and more and more, deadline, deadline, deadline.

- Well, you know how he is.

He's gonna work ya around the clock.

That's his MO.

He's not afraid to do it either,

and you're a very highly skilled person,

which is why you're here after all.

- I guess I still have some adjusting to do.

I'm not used to being so tethered to something.

- Why don't you let me know exactly

what you're hoping to find.

Scribble down some names for me and I'll see

what I can do to dig up some information.

- Really?

- Yeah, but definitely let's keep it under wraps.

- Well, I really appreciate that Billy.

- [Man] You never should have left me in charge.

- I didn't.

(eerie music)

Shut up.

Okay, where are you, Jennifer?

Jennifer, Jennifer, don't let me down.

Come on.

(eerie music) (heartbeat pounding)

- [Man] Gretchen.

- What are you doing here?

- [Man] You spy!

You filthy dirty spy!

(Gretchen screams) (dramatic music)

(eerie music)

(keyboard keys clacking) (upbeat music)

(air whooshing)

- Oh!

(chuckles) Jennifer.

- Hey.

- (chuckles) Startled me.

- What you got for me?

- Well, not much, but I did find this out

that you might find interesting.

Tina Rockford, it turns out has

an alias named Madeline Thompson.

At least that's what her social media profiles

and some of her online accounts suggest.

Meanwhile, I also found this out,

that recently she has taken a number

of exotic trips around the world

to like Bali and Dubai, Honolulu.

The list goes on and on.

- Must be nice.

Think she got a sugar daddy?

- Yeah.

And the question is one or two?

- And?

- Well, I did a little more research

and this will surprise you.

It turns out that she has a gentlemen,

riddle man keeps coming up as part

of her life linking the two of them together

and apparently he is this mogul

of Rigby Food Distribution empire

and that's her exotic ticket outta here,

and his name is Roger Neilson.

- Oh my God, you're the best.

Thank you so much.

- Oh, you're welcome.

- You mean the world to me.

I can't believe all the work you're putting into this.

I have a surprise for you.

Are you ready?

WrestleMania tickets, all yours.

- Oh, you don't have to tempt me with a good time.

- You're the best, thank you.

- Oh, you're welcome.

(keyboard keys clacking) (upbeat music)

(birds chirping)

- Oh, God.

(birds chirping)

(Jennifer sighs)

Where are you?

(eerie music) (birds chirping)

(Jennifer screaming faintly) (eerie music)

(man yelling faintly) (eerie music)

(heartbeat pounding)

- How are you feelin', sweetheart?

Are you hungry?

- I've been better.

- Here's some tea, maybe?

It's comforting.

I'll get you some pain meds to help with the pain, okay?

- Yeah, thank you.

Thanks.

- Oh, okay.

I'll leave you two to visit for a few.

Make sure you try to eat somethin', okay, hon?

- Okay.

- [Detective Santoro] Jennifer, I came as soon as I could.

- Thanks.

You really didn't have to come all this way.

- Are you kidding me?

Of course I did.

- What's that?

- I brought you some food.

Food in these places can be pretty terrible.

- Thanks.

You really know how to cheer a girl up.

- It's the least I could do.

Jennifer, do you remember what happened to you?

- Of course I remember.

I mean, I was attacked by some fucking goon.

- I know this is hard,

but do you remember what he looked like?

- Look, I know it's your job and all,

but I really don't feel like being interrogated right now.

You know, I've already given my statement

to somebody else this morning, anyways.

- You gave a statement already?

To who?

- Yeah, they didn't waste any time.

It was somebody from your office.

I'm pretty sure my boss was all over him

to get this shit sorted out.

And I was so loopy when I came in here

that it just all seemed like a blur.

- Hm.

(Jennifer sighs)

- Are you okay?

- Yeah, yeah, I'm all right.

It's just, I'm still upset about

this whole situation and look, I'm so sorry.

And we're gonna do everything we can

to get this son of a bitch.

- Hey, don't you worry.

I'm gonna be fine.

And I put up a good fight, so he just caught me off guard.

It'll all work out.

What's that for?

- Look, I really think you should

have this on you at all times.

- I don't really think that's a good idea.

- Look, I'm gonna do everything I can

in my power to protect you, but I'm still worried.

Okay?

I mean this situation's gotten all outta hand.

I wanna make sure you're okay at all times.

(gentle music)

I care about you so much, Jennifer.

(gentle music)

(eerie music)

- Where's my money.

- [Man] Shut the fuck up.

(eerie music) (man choking)

(man laughing faintly)

(eerie music)

- [Rick] Please!

- No.

- [Rick] Please!

- No.

- It's important!

- [Jennifer] No!

- Please, I'm begging you.

I just need to talk.

Just for a minute (gasping).

- You don't give up easily do you?

- Okay.

Have a look.

See, these are the girls.

(shutter clicking)

They all worked for Rigby.

- Wait, go back.

What the hell is that?

(shutter clicking)

- Yo, creep! - Oh no, no, no, no.

It's not what you think.

No, no, no.

Look, look.

(shutter clicking) (air whooshing)

(Rick panting)

See, I think you might be in grave danger.

- How long have been observing me?

(Rick panting) (eerie music)

(phone vibrating)

Oh.

Hey, Detective.

- [Detective Santoro] I wanted to extend

the offer to buy you a drink.

- Look, I already told you I had so much to catch up on.

My boss is all over me right now.

Especially after my little hospital stay.

- [Detective Santoro] Still?

- Mm hm, behind, behind.

- [Detective Santoro] I'm being very polite.

- I mean, I could use a drink.

- [Detective Santoro] You wouldn't regret it,

Detective's promise.

(Jennifer smirks)

- Okay, I need like an hour.

- [Detective Santoro] Last Call,

it's a bar near year office.

- All right, I'll see you there.

Okay.

(gentle jazzy music)

Hm.

Hey, thanks for being so persistent.

I think I really needed this drink after all.

- It's great to see you again.

- Yeah, it's been a really crazy week.

I mean my boss is goin' kinda nuts

and things are just gettin' really weird.

- It's always good to get out.

- True.

Cheers. (glasses clinking)

Is that beer any good?

- It's an IPA.

You know what's funny?

That they taste different

in the winter time compared to summer.

- Huh. - And I don't know why.

- Maybe it's just the hops

and how they- - Yeah.

- Hey Captain Catfish,

you lose your phone in a bowl of rice?

- I think you got the wrong guy.

- This note is legal tender for all debts,

public and private. (heartbeat pounding)

Ours is private and you owe me at least 500 more of these.

(dramatic music)

- Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Hey, hey, hey!

(foot thudding) (dramatic music)

- You showed off to the lady- - Shut the fuck up!

- [Man] I was only-

- Shut the God damn fuck up!

(dramatic music)

- [Man] If you were any real cop

you'd arrest yourself for larceny.

- What is going on?

- Oh, he's just some fucking crack head.

That guy's crazy.

I've taken him before.

I'll just call some backup to clean him up.

He's not gonna be a problem anymore.

- Oh my God.

This week has just been getting so fucking weird.

- It's okay, everything's all right.

(gentle jazzy music)

(eerie music)

(keyboard keys clacking) (eerie music)

- [Man] Billy, you old sly.

Come out and play with me and we'll

be friends forevermore. - Hey, I recognize you.

(Billy screaming) (dramatic music)

(crickets chirping)

- [Man] Jennifer?

(wolf howling) (pensive music)

(gentle music)

- Let me get one more.

- [Bartender] I'm afraid we're wrappin' it up, buddy.

Time to get goin'.

- Just one more and then I'm out of here.

- [Bartender] I can't serve you anything

but water at this point.

- Bullshit, that's fuckin' bullshit.

- [Bartender] All right, time to go.

- Fuck you, man.

Fuck you.

(man vocalizing faintly)

This sucks, how you doin'?

That guy is somethin'.

All I wanted was one more fuckin' drink.

I'm never goin' back to that shit hole again.

(man vocalizing faintly)

Where the hell am I?

- [Man] Torsten?

- [Torsten] Who said that?

The owner?

- [Man] Torsten?

You bloody loser. - Who the fuck are you?

(Torsten choking) (eerie music)

(heartbeat pounding)

(man laughing faintly)

(man vocalizing faintly)

(shutter clicking) (pensive music)

(dramatic music) (Rick choking)

- Dickhead.

(pensive music)

(Detective Santoro knocking)

- [Jennifer] Joey.

Oh my God, what happened?

Oh my God, are you okay?

- Yeah.

- Oh, shit.

You look horrible.

- I don't know.

I was driving headed to your house.

I had to stop and get gas

and I don't know what hit me.

I heard this crash.

I don't remember what happened,

but the bastard took my wallet.

- Did you call anybody that the cops...

- That's funny.

That's why I love you, Jennifer.

That's why (laughs).

You're not nutty, you're Jennifer.

- You're nutty, relax.

Be right back.

Get some rest. - Okay.

Jennifer (chuckles), you're so good and wholesome.

(Joey sighs)

(eerie music)

(Joey humming) (eerie music)

To us.

(glasses clinking)

And me being your bodyguard forever.

- Oh yeah?

- Yeah.

- I think you hit your head pretty hard or somethin'.

- Yeah, I did (chuckles).

Well, I was driving around some vineyards earlier

and I was thinking maybe someday

we could live on one and maybe breed the perfect grape.

- [Jennifer] Hm.

(Joey chuckles)

- Have some cats.

Okay, it's okay.

Can't leave here right now.

Okay, it's okay.

Have some conventions.

- You're silly.

(Joey chuckles)

Almost.

I tell ya, those guys on the force, they're all corrupt.

And those politicians,

they screw over small businesses, corporations.

They're making us addicts.

(eerie music)

It's all right.

Everything will happen soon.

Everything will be better soon.

Soon, this will all happen

and we'll be free at last.

What are you saying? - I'm hot.

- I can't hear you. - Yeah.

- There we go, let's go over here.

We're gonna walk there aren't we?

Come here.

You stay right there.

Stay right there.

(eerie music)

(Joey chuckles)

(heartbeat pounding) (eerie music)

(Joey humming) (eerie music)

(Joey chuckles)

You blacked out.

You should watch what you're drinking.

You never know where drink might be spiked.

- (sobs) Joey.

What the fuck?

- [Joey] Yeah (chuckles).

(Jennifer sobs)

- Why?

(Joey chuckles)

- Oh, maybe you thought I was someone I'm not.

Hm?

(Jennifer screams)

Stop your crying.

We're in love.

Listen, listen.

(cat hissing)

Fuck off, pussy.

(air whooshing)

Will you marry me, Jenny?

Will you marry me?

Tick, tick, tick.

(air whooshing)

Will you marry me?

(Jennifer sobbing) (pensive music)

Answer me!

Answer me now!

- (sobbing) No!

No!

No, no!

(eerie music)

(Jennifer groaning) (eerie music)

- Come here, Jennifer.

My parents owned the best cattle company,

and they made a lotta money until

the middleman and a sale and they took all their money.

All their money.

We had nothing to show for it,

and my parents, they would teach me

all the fundamentals of how to be a good person

and loving someone, loving anyone,

and then they screwed us over.

We had so much money.

(laughs) Oh now you got something to say, huh, Jenny?

No, no.

I'm not gonna stop.

I'm having too much fun.

(eerie music)

And then all of a sudden the world is changing.

People can clone anything.

Plants, cattle, even us.

Jennifer, you're the writer, though.

You can write things.

- Why? - Why can't we rely on you?

We relied on your stories.

(eerie music) (heartbeat pounding)

You let my family down!

I got one more thing to say to you.

One more thing to say!

(eerie music) (Jennifer screaming)

This is your last deadline!

(Jennifer screaming) (heartbeat pounding)

(cat meows) (dramatic music)

(Joey screams) (dramatic music)

- This is the moment I've dreamed of.

(elbow thuds)

(eerie music) (heartbeat pounding)

- I worked so hard.

I'm to gonna screw it in the end.

- All you did was run a business (speaking faintly).

- It's all your fault.

(dramatic music) (heartbeat pounding)

(Jennifer screaming) (dramatic music)

Hey Jennifer?

Look at the clock.

You have one more minute.

One minute to decide.

Is it gonna be eternal love or eternal death?

Huh?

Answer me.

Answer me.

Answer me.

Answer me, bitch!

- Fuck you!

You never fucking learn do you?

You did all this for your selfish fucking needs.

You piece of shit and your fucking family.

All I wanna do is go back to my normal life.

Forget all of this stupid shit.

(eerie music)

(dramatic music)

(heartbeat pounding)

(shot firing) (gentle music)

- Holy shit.

(gentle music)

(gentle music builds)

Hi.

- Hey.

You're lookin' good.

- Thank you, Miss Sutton.

- It's Jennifer.

- Jennifer.

- How are you?

- Good.

Thank you for helpin' me get the new job.

- Yeah, of course.

How's it going?

Are they treating you good?

- [Rick] Yeah.

Dale, he's a good man.

- Hm, he is.

- So, I heard you're leaving?

- Yeah, it's time to move on.

- Oh.

- I really did give it my all,

and I think maybe the world is a better place

because of what we do sometimes and maybe not.

Sometimes it's just best not to know.

- Mm, I think it's always better to know.

- You're so naive sometimes, you know that?

- So, are you gonna write a book or something?

- No, no book.

I think I'm just gonna go and live my life for a change.

- Dale, he's helping me to speak more to people,

now that I don't live behind my camera so much.

- That's good.

I think that's good.

Keep it up.

- Thank you, Miss (chuckles), Jennifer.

- Is everything okay?

- I think I need a new belt.

I've lost some weight.

(Jennifer chuckles)
