There are no wrong answers.

It's a persuasive essay.

All you got to do is pick a side and support it

well, that question makes no sense.

It's just exponential growth.

I'm gonna go with a, sadiated.

I know what exponential growth is,

but nobody would make an initial deposit of $3,000.

It's way too low.

Number 32, what is the value of x?

Every time that you say x, it always just reminds me

of my ex.

Pro.

Satiated.

No, con.

Preppy student: 16.

14.

Who invented the telephone?

Recrimination.

- Alexander Graham bell. - Xander Graham bell.

What's up? Yeah.

Good. Good, good, good.

Hiya, hiya, hiya!

Yeah! My dad collects 'em.

This thing is worth like, six figures or something.

Ethan: Reconciliation.

It's like when you were beefing.

But then you come back together and like,

now you're all chill.

- That's great. - Mmm.

Mother in a fuzzy coat: Catherine loves having you as her tutor.

What's your process?

For me, it's about connection.

Your hair looks great.

Very good.

You missed that one last time.

Reclusive.

Redolent.

Redundant.

Repetitive, annoying.

Wait, how much are nickels again?

Hiya, hiya, hiya, hiya, hiya!

All right. Time's up. Let's go.

Already?

I can tell you right now...

My dad works at jp Morgan...

Fast-talking student: And if there's an imaginary number in the denominator,

then you multiply

the top and bottom by the complex conjugate.

Hello.

Your raspberry leaf tea.

Thank you, sir. Good for the uterus.

Ah.

Mmm.

Mm.

You're really gonna drink that in front of me?

I waited three months.

Oh. Where's the solidarity?

I left it somewhere.

Oh.

I talked to my dad today.

Yeah?

And did he mention that a child born out of wedlock was illegal

in most states until recently?

Did you tell him?

Ethan.

I will.

I promise.

Yeah?

Are you gonna make me do the baby meditation again?

No. Didn't like your voice.

Well, I didn't either.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Now dip me.

Whoa!

Careful. I'm pregnant.

I've noticed.

Morning, morning.

Hey, Jeremy.

Morning, Rick.

Ethan, Ethan, wait.

Finish your examination, I'll be right back.

Hey, Chris wanted you to call him.

I was gonna text you.

He has something for you.

He say what it was?

Not sure.

Thanks.

Mm-hmm.

You look pretty.

Thanks.

All right, where were we?

Chris: Ethan!

Are you at a party?

No, no, I'm across the pond making deals happen, man.

All these shipping magnets, they want their sons

to go prison.

It's definitely an emerging market.

Chris: Cool!

Hey, listen, have you ever had blood sausage?

Ethan: Yes, I have, Chris.

They make it super fresh here.

Daria said you got something.

Chris: I got an email this morning.

Summer gig, might be a great way to keep you afloat

through the fall.

'Cause I know you need that dinero, baby.

What is it?

Chris: They asked for you by name.

You're tutor famous, man.

It's probably a referral from lombardis,

Goldman sachs connection.

I don't know.

All I know is they're offering you $2,500 a day.

Holy shit.

Chris: Yeah, I know.

Listen, the only thing is they're gonna pay you

under the table.

You're gonna stay on premise for a week as a trial basis.

Of course.

Chris: They've got some sort of tutor bungalow.

Um... who's the family?

Chris: Details are sparse.

But it's definitely vip and it definitely starts asap.

Look, buddy, I've got to go, man.

Important meeting I gotta get to a donor and everything.

I'll call you later. Okay?

All right. Ciao.

Sorry.

Daria.

This feels strange to be leaving right now.

I know.

I mean, hey, at least it gets you out of unpacking.

I don't want to get out of unpacking.

I mean, yeah, like it sucks.

All I want to do is, is nest.

But you know, it's fine. Right?

You're not gonna be there forever and...

We need the money.

We need the money.

And I mean, it does kind of seem like the universe is just

handing you this thing.

No.

So, you've got to take it.

You've got to go.

Handing us this thing?

Yes.

Mr. Campbell?

That's me.

Thank you, sir.

Thanks for the ride.

Hi.

How are you, sir?

Thank you.

Phew.

It's this way, sir.

Okay.

Where does this go?

Back to the horse stables?

Mm.

Thank you.

Hello.

You must be sir Jackson.

You must be Ethan.

Well, that is correct.

It's a beautiful house.

Do you know what we're supposed to be working on?

Usually, I get a little more information.

You took the sats in the fall? Yeah?

Yes.

How'd you do?

I don't know.

It wasn't good.

Like 1100s, 1200s?

I don't know.

I can have my dad's assistant forward them to you

later tonight.

Great.

All right.

Let's try a practice test.

We'll see how you do.

All right. This is the test.

You'll have 25 minutes, 20 questions.

Remember, take your time.

And clock starts now.

No Wi-Fi.

Jesus.

Very curious, aren't you?

Huh?

There's a whole series on geriatrics.

Sorry if I was bothering you.

I didn't know anybody else was in here.

I'm Ethan.

You guys live here?

Yeah.

Well, I'll be here, too, for a week.

Do you guys know um, if there's a landline or...

A landline?

Ethan: Cell service is a little bad.

None of my texts are going through.

Maybe try by the pool.

Service is usually best out there.

Appreciate it.

Sorry for bothering.

Jenny: You could try the Wi-Fi.

What's the password?

The Butler has a phone.

Ethan: Butler has got a phone. Good.

No, Ethan, that's the password.

Thank you, guys.

Done.

Well...

I'll have to ask you, have you seen this test before?

No.

Okay. Maybe you're a math whiz.

Let's get you on the writing section.

For this, you'll have 35 minutes.

I hope you like Russian literature.

Right this way.

I'll show you your room.

Sure.

Already? That was quick.

I'm timing you still.

I am timing him.

Here's your room, sir.

The sessions are separate, 2:00 P.M. every day.

Your bedroom is right through those doors.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Ethan.

How are you?

You're kind of old to be a tutor, right?

Um, well, that's debatable, I guess.

How did you become a tutor?

Uh, flashcards. Pretty much mainly flashcards.

It's a party.

I can see that.

Have fun.

I will.

Party on.

Ethan.

Ethan.

Annie: I mean, maybe he's one of those perfect-score kids

and they just wanna make sure.

I don't know though.

They made it sound like he failed in the spring.

Annie: Well, I don't know.

Maybe he gets anxious on the real thing.

Maybe.

Annie: How's the house?

Well, you tell me.

Whoa, whoa. What was that?

Ethan: Own personal pool table.

Are you serious?

Ethan: I walked into a room earlier and it had like,

50 motorcycles in it.

What? 50 motorcycles?

Mm-hmm.

Annie: Have you met the parents?

No, but I met the Butler.

Annie: The Butler, shut up!

Wow.

Well, the kid is giving me sort of a strange vibe.

Like, he's got to be on the spectrum or something.

Annie: Sounds like some kind of mad genius.

Well, I hope he's mad genius.

Annie: Well, I mean, sounds like a pretty easy week.

Yeah.

Annie: Take that money and run, baby.

I guess, I've got to stop thinking like

I have to do this instead of I get to do this for us.

Exactly.

You get to have your own pool table.

It's pretty cool.

Ethan: Yeah.

Ethan: How's the little romance killer doing?

Oh my god, stop saying that.

It's not funny.

Ethan: I'm just kidding.

Ethan: We should probably get some sleep.

See how tomorrow is.

Mm-hmm. Yeah, me too.

Ethan: I hope I can call you with some wonderful stories

of all my...

Okay.

Ethan: Adventures.

I'll talk to you tomorrow.

I love you.

Ethan: Okay. Sleep tight.

Bye.

So, what do you like to do?

What do you mean?

Like in school, what do you like?

Math, English.

Ethan: You like music?

Everyone listens to music.

Ethan: What do you listen to?

A little bit of everything.

Little bit of everything.

Who is that guy?

Oh my!

Jackson: He's my cousin.

He summers with us.

And I'm... I'm an only child, so he's like a brother to me.

What's your dad do?

Jackson: I'm not allowed to say.

You can't tell me what your dad does?

What about your mom?

Um, sh...

They sent her away.

Sorry.

What kind of pictures do you take?

I saw your camera.

People mostly.

Jackson: You ever take pictures of your students?

No.

That'd be a little weird.

Mostly an abstract photographer.

Jackson: Did you go to school for it?

No, I did photo journalism in high school.

And that just kind of stuck, caught the bug.

Jackson: What about the baby? Was it planned?

How do you know about the baby?

Are you worried about having a bastard?

Excuse me?

Jackson: Well, you're not married, right?

I'm just curious.

Let's focus on work.

What's up?

Aren't you late for something?

We actually don't start until 2:00 today.

Oh.

You want a ride?

I'm all right.

Come on, get in the car.

Okay.

You like teddi?

She has to obey me.

You can have her.

I got a girlfriend. Thanks.

Jackson told me that your lady is pregnant.

So, this could be your last chance.

Jenny: How's Jackson doing?

I mean, after all that he's been through.

Ethan: What do you mean?

What did he tell you?

That his mom was sent away.

Gavin: Yeah, you could say that.

You could say that.

And... boom.

Done.

Hey, will you take my picture?

Not in a creepy way, but professional.

Got to grade this.

Please?

Okay. Where do you want to?

Don't do that.

Um, just relax.

Be comfortable.

Just be real.

Got ya.

Also, guess what?

What?

The rest of our session has been cancelled.

No, it hasn't.

Gavin: Not yet.

Well...

We're just trying to figure out, what's your price?

You won't get in trouble.

His father doesn't know anything.

What if I give you a $1,000?

Jackson, that's ridiculous.

I can't take your money.

Come on! A 1,000 is like nothing.

Maybe for you.

How much? 3,000?

I'm not naming a number.

5,000.

Going once.

Going twice?

5,000.

Deal.

Sold.

Phew. That was easy.

I thought you'd make me work for that.

But tomorrow?

Just when you've thought you've seen it all.

They say we might find out the sex at our next visit.

Ethan: Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa! I'm so excited.

Should I um, wait until you come back? Or?

Ethan: Absolutely, you better.

You okay?

Annie: I'm fine.

Just... just missing you.

Ethan: Well, I miss you, too.

It'll just be a few more sleeps.

We'll be together.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay.

Ethan: I love you.

I love you, too.

Ethan: Okay. Goodnight.

Night.

Can I come in?

Sure.

I'm sorry.

I lied.

My mom, she never got sent away.

She left.

Oh.

Go on.

Usually, people just nod and check out.

It's been super hard.

He's never liked me, my dad.

And it's only gotten worse as I've gotten older.

I'm not living up to his expectations.

My dad's horrible.

Racist, angry, drinks all the time.

I never know what version of him I'm gonna get.

I still haven't told him I have a baby on the way.

My mom took off when I was 10.

She couldn't handle it.

It's probably the hardest thing I ever had to go through

was losing her.

I just try and remind myself that we're all just broken.

We can really only just try our best.

I'm sure your dad loves you, Jackson.

He probably just has a really strange way of showing that.

You listen.

You must be a really special person.

What the fuck!

Oh.

Jesus Christ!

Thanks for being my stand-in birthing partner today.

Yeah. Duh!

I love that they had orgasmic birth on the syllabus.

You believe that?

I could not believe.

But I wouldn't get your hopes up.

Kinda hoping.

I don't know.

Honestly.

I always feel like I'm supposed to like stop

and do triceps dips there.

No, no.

I can never do.

Mm-mm. Mm-mm.

You need to enjoy being pregnant, enjoy this bod.

Yeah.

Eat what you want, girl.

Don't work out.

Yeah.

Ethan will love it.

What?

Nothing.

I don't know.

I'm just obsessing again.

Sculptor girl?

Yeah.

I don't know.

Maybe it's the hormones, but it's just... I'm still angry.

- You know what I mean? - Yeah, yeah.

It's just... it's so fucking cliché like, hooking up

at an artists' retreat?

Really?

I know.

It makes sense to be angry.

It's like everything changes when you have a kid.

He's not just your husband anymore,

he's the father of your child.

Yeah.

Well, I mean, we're not married.

But, but I hear you.

Okay.

Hey.

Yeah?

I talked to my dad.

He said we can have a special dinner tomorrow

to celebrate the final session.

He gets in by early evening.

Well, we hardly did any work today.

Well, he doesn't know that.

He's excited to meet you.

I have to leave right after our session.

Come on! Just stay a little.

You're so cool.

I... I want to get to know you.

Jackson, this is a job. Okay?

I don't know what you thought it was,

but I'm your tutor.

I'm not your friend. Okay?

Have a good night.

Jackson?

Jackson?

Jackson?

Jackson?

Which problem are you on?

We only have two hours left today,

and I want to get some good work done.

Okay?

Okay. Okay.

Look, hey, just relax.

Relax.

Just breathe.

Calm down.

Look, I'm sorry about yesterday.

I didn't mean to upset you.

But I do have to get home.

I have plans with my girlfriend.

Okay.

And I do think that you formed

a slightly unhealthy attachment to me.

I just want to get to know you.

What's wrong with that?

I saw the pictures on your computer.

You shouldn't be on my computer.

I know.

I came to find you last night to apologize, to say I'm sorry.

No.

I'm sorry.

Do you want to talk about it?

I think if we...

Jackson.

Hey, Jackson.

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Jackson! Hey, stop!

Stop, stop, stop.

Hey, stop it.

Jackson.

Jackson!

Jackson?

Jackson!

Hello.

You must be Jackson's father.

Well...

I'm sorry, he's an emotional kid.

Yeah.

Uh, you know, he was doing great and then...

And just all of a sudden he got...

Upset.

Yeah.

You know how they prep soldiers for target practice

in world war ii?

I do not.

They'd spin them around in circles

until they got dizzy.

And then... then they'd make 'em fire their weapons.

Don't go easy on him.

He has to be able to perform at all times.

I found that out the hard way.

Hey, sorry, I'm not gonna be able to make it

to dinner tonight.

That's okay.

Oh, okay.

It's a beautiful painting.

You can have it.

Come on.

Seriously.

We've got three more around here somewhere.

Hey, Chris.

Ethan. Nailed the presentation.

Montclair, New Jersey, it's gonna be a goldmine.

Ethan: Chris, listen.

No, you listen.

I just got a phone call from Jackson's father.

Ethan: Yeah, before you say anything...

They want you to continue through the summer, my main man.

They think it'd be good for Jackson

to have someone around, you know, keep him company.

I... I don't know, man.

Chris: They're offering you triple your day rate moving forward.

Chaching!

Make your year in a month.

Oh, Chris.

Chris: You're welcome.

I'll take that as a yes.

So, we found out the sex.

Don't pause like that.

Come on!

We are having... A boy.

We're having a little Ethan.

Yes! Oh, I knew it, I so knew it was gonna be a boy.

Yeah.

Whoo!

I'm not cheering the boy part, specifically.

I would have cheered either way.

He's very woke.

You do?

Congrats, you guys.

Oh, we're so excited for you.

That's amazing.

Thank you.

We're really excited.

Um, we have an announcement to make, too.

Ah, we're moving to Portland.

Wow! Okay.

So, it's really happening.

Josh: Yeah.

Miriam: Hey, um, we are not going to leave

until the baby is born.

I would never do that to you.

Josh: Yeah.

Oh my gosh.

I'm gonna miss you guys so much.

Miriam: Ah, I'm sorry.

It's okay.

Miriam: I'm sorry.

It's okay. It's okay.

I can't say that I didn't see it coming.

Hey, how's... how's work?

I bet you got some crazy shit.

Yeah, but I put up with it, because the pay is good.

Well, tell them my favorite one.

Oh, which one?

Oh, you know.

Miriam: Tell us.

Oh, the one where the girl uh...

The girl threw her textbook at me...

- And called me “white trash”. - White trash.

- Mm-hmm. - Miriam: Oh my god.

Annie: Yes.

And the Russian oligarch that flew me to London

to take his son on a college tour

and the father that screamed at me to not tell him

how to raise his fucking kid...

Yeah.

Um...

Annie said you have a new student who's, oh,

interesting, I guess.

Yeah.

He's um... Yeah, he's interesting.

He's um, obsessed with me.

He's a... in a total stalker sort of way.

You know, "Ethan, you're so cool."

"Man, you really listen."

And he starts waving money in front of my face

at any moment like he can fucking buy me...

- Like I'm... - Miriam: Okay.

Some kind of whore.

He had pictures of Annie and I on his laptop.

And then we're working on a section

and he makes one mistake and he starts flipping out

in some sort of... Sort of a psychotic like,

bipolar episode.

He's such a weird little kid that I don't know how

he lives with himself.

Ethan?

Huh?

We get it.

Jackson.

Ethan: Hey.

We were just talking about someone else.

No big deal.

Annie: Jackson, hi, I'm... I'm Annie.

Ethan... Ethan's told me a lot about you.

Uh, you like this place?

I... I think the food here is divine.

Mmm.

Yeah, it's good.

It's um, it's expensive.

Good.

What are you doing out here so late?

Well, I'm 17, Ethan.

I have a life.

Of course.

My family owns three buildings on this block.

We're here on weekends.

Oh.

Great.

Well, it was so nice meeting you.

Annie: Nice to meet you, too.

Every single time that you drink,

you embarrass me and you embarrass yourself.

Annie: God, I hate it when you get like that.

It was a mistake.

Annie: No, it's belittling.

I'm sorry.

And it reminds me of your dad.

I'm sorry.

God, they're just kids, Ethan.

They can't help if they come from money.

Even if they're a little bit messed up,

it's not their fault.

Annie, I'll apologize to him the next time I see him.

Annie: Yeah. Okay.

Hey, what's up?

Jackson: Hey, change of plans.

My dad has a thing in the city and I need to be there.

Can we push it back and meet at our townhouse?

I was actually just about to head out there now.

I'm uh, just waiting for the car.

Jackson: No, I called them.

They'll pick you up at 2:00.

Feel free to let yourself in.

Okay. Cool.

Hey, I mean, I just wanted to say sorry for...

Jackson: Let's just talk later.

Okay.

Jackson: See you soon.

Okay.

Hello?

Hello?

Hey.

Jackson: We're running late.

Traffic.

I didn't know this was gonna be an all-afternoon thing.

I told Annie we'd get dinner.

Jackson: Have something to eat if you're hungry.

I let you some fruit.

Yeah, I see it.

Thank you.

I'll be here.

Hello?

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

Annie?

Where were you?

Jackson never showed up.

For seven hours?

He called, said he was gonna be late,

left some fruit for me to have and I passed out.

Passed out?

Ethan, you're soaking wet.

Because I woke up in a lake, Annie.

That's crazy.

What are you saying that he... You're saying that this kid,

that he drugged you?

Well, I don't know what to tell you,

because that's what happened.

Okay.

Well, you uh, you missed our doctor's appointment.

Goddamn it, that was...

Yeah, it was today. Yeah.

Oh, and some woman called for you.

Who?

I don't know.

I don't know, Ethan.

She hung up every time that I asked.

That's... what's her number.

I'll call her back.

Oh my god. Ethan, don't walk away from me.

Who was she? Who was this woman?

Why is your hair wet?

Annie, you're jumping to conclusions.

I think that I have a right to be suspicious

given what's happened in the past, Ethan.

You say that you're gonna be in the city

and I can clearly see that you're in long island.

Look, I know that you have my tracker on your phone.

I asked you to keep it there.

I'm the father of our child and I have nothing to hide.

Ethan, that's crazy.

What are you... What are you saying?

That... that... that why... Why would this kid drug you?

Why have some random woman call the house?

What do you want me to say, Annie?

I don't...

Huh? I'm trying to find answers, too.

I don't know what happened.

You clearly don't trust me.

Hmm. This is interesting.

Tetrahydrozoline found in nasal spray, eye drops,

tasteless, causes lack of consciousness

and coma.

Uh...

That's probably what he gave me.

And I have such a headache.

Another side effect.

♪ She's standing 2 feet away ♪

♪ her high heels aross the marble floor ♪

♪ I see her evryday ♪

Jackson: Have something to eat if you're hungry.

I left you some food.

Jenny: Teddi, teddi, take his shirt off.

Jenny: Jakson, hurry. Take the photo.

Hey.

Ethan: Hey.

How'd... how'd the pictures turn out?

Ethan: They're all right.

Yeah, you get anything good?

Ethan: Not really.

I'm sure there must have been something good in there.

I'm sorry, Annie.

I don't want to fight.

I don't want to fight either.

I'm sorry, too.

Let's go to bed, okay?

I don't know, Ethan.

Maybe, maybe he's not getting your texts.

I mean he could be on vacation.

Yeah.

But what kid with a pulse these days doesn't check

his phone for a week?

Well, did you try calling his dad?

I didn't get his information.

Maybe it's a way of firing you.

I mean, you were kind of a dick to him at the restaurant

that night.

Yeah.

But hey, I called his school this... this morning.

No Jackson goes there.

Ethan, why are you obsessing over this?

- Look, it's good... - I'm not. It's just...

It's good if you don't go back out there because...

It's just been...

- Guess what? - Frustrating. What?

Then you get more Annie time.

Right?

Don't worry.

It's okay.

Let it go.

Shake it off.

Chris is calling.

Hey.

Chris: Ethan, how are you?

I was just about to call you.

What's up?

Chris: I just spoke with Jackson.

Ethan: Oh, good, I...

Yeah, he just explained to me he's cancelling

the rest of his sessions, because he's scared of you.

Wait, what?

Chris, that's absurd.

Chris: Yeah, he didn't really go into detail.

But he said there was an incident

and that there's a pretty substantial bruise on his leg.

Chris, that is ridiculous.

Jackson gave himself those bruises.

Chris: Why would he do that?

Because he had some sort of some sort of meltdown

during a session that... he... He just started flipping out

like some bipolar sort of thing hitting himself.

His dad walked in on the situation.

- Ethan: He saw it. - Ethan, he said...

Ethan: We talked about it afterwards.

Ethan, Ethan, his dad said he never met you before.

Chris, that's ridiculous.

His dad was there.

He came down the stairs.

He was talking about world war ii shit

and everything.

Firing guns, spinning people around.

What... what is happening here, Chris?

Chris: Jackson also said that you were pretty inappropriate

with some young lady friends of his

and that there were pictures.

Ethan?

Oh my god.

What were you thinking, man?

Chris, I don't know what's going on.

But there's a lot more that he's not telling you.

Enlighten me.

Like the other week, when I went to his apartment,

he didn't show up,

told me to eat some fucking fruit

and I was drugged.

Chris: Ethan.

Those pictures with that girl, Jackson staged those photos.

Chris: So, there are pictures.

Tsk.

Ethan: Chris.

Look, man, we worked together long time.

These are serious allegations, man.

Chris, I need this job.

I have a baby on the way.

I'm gonna have to let you go.

Ethan: Chris. Chris.

Chris.

Annie: What's going on?

I don't know.

Annie: You don't know?

Sounded pretty serious.

Is everything okay?

No.

Hey!

Hey!

- I'm sorry. - Stop.

I don't know what the hell is going on,

but this needs to fucking stop right now.

Did you mean it?

What's that?

The other night at the restaurant.

- What you said to me... - Yeah, I meant...

I meant every goddamn word of it.

You're a piece of shit for judging me.

You know that? I don't know how to judge you.

You don't know anything about me.

Oh, I don't?

I've been tutoring rich pricks like you my entire life.

No.

You and your traumas and your triggers.

Oh, bless you!

You don't know what I've been through

or what you've done to me!

Oh, what I've done to you?

What I've done to you?

Hey, don't put the fucking hands on him, man.

I gave you a chance.

But I'm gonna totally fuck you over now.

You stay the fuck away from me. All right?

You stay away from my family.

You hear me, Jackson?

Or I'll hurt you.

I'll hurt you.

Ethan, do you have a much experience waiting tables?

No, but I think I can catch on pretty quick.

Restaurant manager: I just see a lot of tutoring

and some telecommunications work.

That's right.

I can do like busser.

Busser.

But that's a... The pay rate is way lower.

And I don't wanna waste your time, Ethan.

One second.

Hey! Bring it right in here!

Thanks for coming in.

Thank you, sir.

Yep.

Hello?

Wait, what?

And that's supposed to be me?

The victim told us it was.

Well, that's crazy.

It's not me.

It's probably his cousin, Gavin.

That's who you should be questioning.

I don't know what to tell you.

Let's start with where you were last night.

He isn't a good guy.

Please, tell me what's going on.

You can trust me.

There's so much you don't know.

Annie: I... I don't know what to believe anymore.

I don't... I don't think that you'd do this.

But then I think about your dad and I think about...

I'm not my dad.

Why your mom left.

And I don't want to be stressed like this all the time, Ethan.

It's... it's not good for the baby.

I don't understand how you can't just...

Who's Rachel platt?

Why?

Annie: Who is she?

Jackson told me at the station that he's worried about me.

Why?

He... he told me that his mother's name

was Rachel platt.

Ethan: His mother?

He said that she was murdered.

Murdered?

I looked it up and a decade ago a woman named Rachel platt

drowned in the lake.

Yeah, I know.

Annie: Okay. So what does this woman have to do with you, Ethan?

We were...

Seeing each other.

We dated.

It was just a fling.

And she wasn't murdered here.

She committed suicide.

I always thought her son's name was Christopher.

So, you were having an affair?

No, it wasn't an affair.

They basically weren't even together anymore.

He didn't care about her.

Oh.

Poor Jackson.

Poor Jackson then, but now he's fucking crazy.

I mean, if he thinks that she was murdered,

he probably thinks I had something to do with that.

That's why he's trying to ruin both of our lives.

Why didn't you tell me?

I didn't want to relive it.

How am I supposed to bring that up to you?

She was crazy, Annie.

Jackson probably inherited it.

That's why he's so fucked up.

Annie: Of course, he's fucked up.

He's been traumatized.

You... you can't just... oh.

Okay. You know what?

If you ever want to tell me what the hell

is really going on, Ethan, you let me know.

But until then, I want you gone.

Goddamn son of a... fucking go...

Charles, how are you?

Welcome back, sir.

Do you live here?

Here, let me grab those for you.

Can I help you?

Yeah. I was... I said, do you live here?

Yes, we do.

Is there a problem?

Yeah, I'm looking for Jackson.

Do you know a Jackson?

No.

You renting the place for the summer?

No.

We live here.

Hmm.

You can just tell me, because I've... I've been here all week.

What do you mean you've been here all week?

Ethan: Yeah, I've been here all week.

- Ethan: Oh! - Hey, dad.

Teddi, do you know this man?

Hey, I developed those photos, that nice little ploy

that you had trying to make like...

What are you talking about?

We had some little rendezvous trying to get me in trouble.

You and Jackson's dad,

that was... That was a great little trick.

I don't know who you are!

Because I'm still trying to figure things out for myself.

I don't know who you are!

Sir! Tell her to come back out here...

Because I have some questions.

You need to stay back.

- You need to stay back. - I will stay back.

I'm just trying to figure out who's house this is...

It's my house.

Where I've been all week, 'cause I am done

being fucked with and I need information.

Leave now or I make you leave.

Okay.

I got you now, bastard.

Do you live here, sir?

Huh? No.

Uh, I... I left something here.

It's a friend of mine.

Who lives here?

Jackson, I think.

Police officer: Keep your hands where I can see 'em.

Look, here's another one.

“Rachel had some...

I mean, just read.

Look, Ethan didn't have any involvement,

but it would just...

This doesn't prove anything.

I mean, it proves that he's a liar.

Because he didn't tell you that he was questioning

this kid's mom's death.

Yes.

I mean... I mean, don't you think that's

something that should've come up over the past five years.

It seems like a pretty big deal to me.

I don't know.

Did you sleep last night?

No.

Okay.

And I think you are jumping to conclusions a little bit.

Yeah.

This is Ethan.

You know him.

I know.

I know.

But I just... I don't know.

These days I feel like I don't really know him at all, so.

Uh.

Are you still tracking his phone?

Yeah, I am.

And he knows?

Yeah, he knows.

He... he said that he wanted me to.

He... he knows that I still don't trust him.

Okay. So then I think you should get out of the house

and stop thinking about this stuff.

Okay?

Yeah, you're right.

You're right.

Ethan, do you know who's property you broke in to?

It's where I was drugged.

I was trying to get proof, evidence,

so I could get restraining order so that this kid

can't come near me anymore.

It was Jefferson platt's.

The husband of Rachel platt?

Whose death you were questioned about exactly 10 years ago?

And I had nothing to do with it.

That's what I'm trying to tell you, guys.

This kid had some fixation.

He had some idea.

Ask his father.

Detective Landry: Jefferson platt died from cancer three years ago, Ethan.

Why did your tutoring company let you go?

Because they accused me of um, assaulting him.

Detective Landry: So, that's twice you've been accused of assaulting Jackson.

I'm gonna have to ask you not to leave the area

for a few days.

We're gonna wanna talk to you some more.

Okay.

Yeah, I wouldn't do anything now, because...

I just want my life back.

I just want my life back.

Hello?

Jackson: How was your evening, Ethan?

Splendid.

I've lost everything thanks to you.

Jackson: So have I.

Thanks to you.

Listen...

Jackson: No, you listen.

I wanna talk.

No, I... I give up.

I don't want anything to do with you.

All right? Just leave me alone.

Jackson: Meet me where she died, unless you prefer

we continue this charade.

This was her favorite place, where she felt most at peace.

But you already knew that.

Her body washed up 2 miles downstream.

But they didn't find water in her lungs.

So someone killed her and then pushed her in.

That was one theory along with many others.

The heel from her shoe snapped off and lodged right there.

Her head was slammed against the deck with such force

that it cracked the wood.

The police determined that that was the exact spot

that she died.

Detectives put that in their confidential report.

My father got a copy, of course.

And so only he, myself, and the murderer knows

that was the exact spot.

And here you are.

Oh, that's bullshit!

It only makes sense this is where she died.

It's your property.

The current runs straight to where she was found.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out this is

where she killed herself.

Where are you going?

I want closure, Ethan.

I am sorry for your loss.

But your mom and I's relationship,

it was a mistake.

And her death?

I had nothing to do with it. Okay?

I promise!

I guess if you tell a lie long enough,

then you just start to believe it.

What? Where are you?

Jackson: What do we do?

Gavin: I don't know.

You know what?

Let's stick to the plan, Jackson.

He's waking up.

Gavin: Okay. Stay down, unless he asks you a fucking question.

Hey, Jackson, can we kill him?

Let's... let's just call the police.

It was just an affair.

I know you blamed me for what happened to your mom,

but we weren't even seeing each other anymore.

You were with her that night.

No, I wasn't.

Bullshit!

You don't know what it was like stuck at that awful

boarding school.

She was the only one that ever gave a shit about me.

Okay, I talked to her. Okay?

Say her name.

Rachel, I talked to her on the phone that night.

Maybe an hour before she died.

She was sad about our relationship ending.

She was drunk, but I didn't come here.

I knew it'd be a mistake.

Jackson: The autopsy showed she was pregnant.

It was gonna be a boy.

I wouldn't be alone.

We know it wasn't his dad, because they weren't fucking.

He's not gonna tell the truth.

Fine.

Let's kill him.

No, fine! Okay!

Okay.

I was with her,

but I wasn't there when she died.

I begged her for one more night and she agreed.

We took a bottle of wine to the docks to our spot,

and we made love.

And after, she didn't want it to end,

because she loved me.

Her husband gave her an ultimatum.

He said she couldn't leave her family.

She couldn't leave you.

And so, she got hysterical.

But I didn't... I didn't think she'd hurt herself.

Jackson, come on, I think about it every day

what would've happened had I just fucking stayed here.

I mean, I...

Oh god!

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

This is bullshit.

Ethan: Uh, no, it's not.

I blamed myself for years and then I found the things

she left behind.

She wrote about you in her diary.

She was scared.

She said you seemed unstable.

And then suddenly, it made sense to me.

It had never been my fault, and I knew what I needed to do.

What do you want from me?

It wasn't an accident.

You killed her.

Turn yourself in.

Why can't you see what... What was between us was real,

that I loved her?

Well, she didn't feel the same.

She said you were a pathetic puppy dog.

She couldn't understand why you wouldn't stop.

Jackson, stop.

“This poor boy begging to be accepted..."

Stop it!

“...to be wanted..."

Stop it!

“...to belong.

A hopeless interloper..."

Ethan: Stop!

“...desperate to be a part of the world

that has no desire..."

Oh my gosh!

“...to include him in anything more than a weekend of pleasure.

What was once adorable is now just sad and pathetic.

He's delusional.”

I was just a kid.

You took her from me.

Why couldn't you just let it go?

No, no, no, no, no, no!

Jackson.

When I was a little boy, I used to play.

I spy with my mom and she'd say if I was getting hotter

or colder.

What am I getting at?

Hotter or colder?

I see you.

Where is it?

Come out, come out wherever you are.

I know you're in here somewhere.

The question is where?

There you are!

My god, I can't believe I didn't see you before.

You look just like her.

I watched her take her last breath.

Now I'm gonna watch you take yours.

Ah. Come on!

It's your time to die.

I'll kill you like Rachel.

Ethan!

Annie!

Ethan, what are you doing?

Do you see what this psycho kid has done to me?

No.

He did all of this.

You just can't see it, because he's been fucking with us.

He's been lying to you.

He's been lying to me.

No, no, it's not true.

It's not true.

You killed... you killed Rachel.

Rachel, no, that was an accident.

Annie: I just heard you.

Yes, it was.

It was a mistake.

- Annie: No, it wasn't. - It was a mistake.

She was drinking.

No, that's not true.

It was.

You know me.

You know who I am.

No, I don't.

We were good, just you and I.

We were good together.

But now you know too much.

Annie: No.

No.

You're a monster.

Nothing yet.

Did they find the body?

Why didn't you tell me what he did?

I should've.

But I needed to find out for myself.

You can spend your entire life with someone,

and never know who they really are.

Ethan: For me, it's about connection.

Helps to identify and relate to the walls and barriers that

could potentially be blocking each particular student.

A simple solution can go a long way.

Not just in education, but in life.

Most importantly, you've got to love what you do.

Understand that each student's journey

has its own unique reward.
