- Josh texted me. He's worried about you.

- So what does it mean you're thinking about Alison?

You're looking into it?

- I will tell you. I just can't right now.

- Would you like a ride home? - Yes.

I used to have a friend.

He betrayed me. We do not speak.

It's Edwin. I got married to Edwin.

He my husband now.

Alison!

Alison, where are you?

Alison!

Alison! Alison!

- We should be down there.

- Go if you want.

- Wes...

I think I made a terrible mistake.

- Oh, God, I'm sorry. Please, I'm so sorry.

Our father,

who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.

- This is your fucking future, right?

Right? Your fucking life.

And you're not gonna throw it away

because of some fucking girl.

Now, did you tell the cops what I told you to say?

Good.

Okay.

- Thy will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven.

- And forgive our trespasses... - Gogo!

As we forgive those

- who trespass against us. - Gogo, look at me.

Gogo, it's me. It's okay.

Look...

The police are looking for us, all right?

So when you're asked about the girl,

we dropped her off at the hotel,

and we never saw her again. You understand me?

Gogo, do you understand me?

- I never want to see you again.

We deserve everything that becoming for we.

We deserve it.

Go!

Even as children,

Edwin Hastings and Clive Richardson

was trouble.

Clive was always angry, gettin' in fights.

And Edwin, even from a young age,

people say he make other people disappear.

You see, on my tour...

I going to walk you through Alison Thomas'

last night

as a man who grew up with these men

from grade school.

And then, well, you can come to your very own conclusion.

We have lovely food

and beverages included on tour,

only for $72 U.S.

And we have snorkeling.

Keep it interesting.

We all know Alison was.

- Hey.

I, um... I made coffee. Do you want some?

- Um, I was thinking we could go out for breakfast.

I told work I was coming in late.

- Oh, it's Alison's birthday.

- Yeah. You forgot?

Um, I've just been...

I've just been really distracted lately.

- Yeah, you have.

Thank you for remembering.

I don't need to do anything today.

I've made it through, like, twenty of these.

- Well, I know she's been on your mind a lot recently.

Really, I'm fine.

- Hey, look. - Check it out.

That's for you. Super thin condoms.

I'll use it with your mom.

Shut up, fool.

Let's get out of here.

- Hey.

You take that out he bag and you tell him what you did.

Friends don't do that to each other.

Go.

Go home.

At the tone, please record your message.

Hello. Hi.

Hi. It's Clive.

Gogo.

I know you have been trying to reach me.

Are you still in New York?

Let me know.

There you are.

Are you okay? - What? Yeah.

- I... I saw your mom's Facebook post.

- Yeah, no. The best way to commemorate Alison

is to do exactly what we're doing.

I'm so close, Sunita.

Like, the other night at the water,

he opened up to me.

He was almost there.

- I hate that you ignored my calls.

- I know, but your calls were ruining the moment.

And what was happening was almost, like...

intimate.

- Em, please tell me you're not starting

to like this man.

- No.

But we talked about real stuff.

He said he had a friend who betrayed him,

which has to be Edwin, which has to be the incident.

I mean, I'm-I'm literally on the precipice.

I'm gonna keep searching for Edwin online today.

So far, I haven't found anything

other than articles about my sister.

But I need to figure out where he is.

I mean, maybe he's murdered someone else.

Maybe he's in New York.

I think... - Have you eaten

anything today?

- What? I don't know.

Okay, Em?

Maybe we should take a break on the Clive situation.

I could actually use a night to work on my feature.

And you have your own relationship

and a job to focus on.

Shrier's been asking

for the final cut of the finale.

Do you have that?

- It's, like, a couple more hours of work.

It's almost done.

- Stop Googling Edwin Hastings and get it done.

This is important.

- I will. It'll be done by tomorrow.

Good.

Aren't you gonna answer that?

- I'll call her later.

You trying Emily?

- Yeah. She's not picking up.

Well, she's a busy person.

With a career,

boyfriend, a life.

Everything we wanted for her.

- I know, I know. You're right.

I know.

You know what day it is today, right?

Of course.

- I want to do something special.

Celebratory.

- Well, dinner and a movie?

There's that new Swedish rom-com at the...

At the Lark.

Our girl did love a rom-com.

- Make reservations at Natasha for 6:00?

Hmm?

- That's perfect.

- I'm stealing this.

Smile!

Clairey, come on. Give us a smile.

You're on vacation.

Good afternoon, Thomases.

Oh, hi, Edwin.

Hello, miss.

Listen, Miss Clairey,

I believe you will very much so like

these chicken fingers.

They are very, very good.

I had many myself.

Thank you so much.

- Enjoy your day, Thomas family.

One more. Hey!

- I'll be right back.

I'm gonna get a drink.

- Mm, I have to go. It's the lunch rush.

Then people can wait for their Caesar salad.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Sadly, they cannot.

- I wanna see more of you.

- I am working. - Then what?

- Then I leave, go lime with my friends.

And you go spend some time with that college boy.

- You know about that?

- It's your vacation.

Enjoy yourself, miss.

Gogo.

Ah.

- I asked Sara to come help babysit the Darien kids later.

- Sara comin' here?

But no one told me.

- So what? She still with Keithley.

- It be your lucky day, big man.

I got a big surprise for you.

My cousin Jonny got a new shipment at the docks.

Tires. So I take two for you.

- Uh, Sara need tires.

- Yeah, well, why you think I take them, stupid?

- No. But you hate Sara.

Why would you do that for she?

- I did it for you.

For doing me that favor with One-Eye. Yeah.

And 'cause I be the greatest friend in the world.

You know it true.

You know it true. You know...

What? Gogo, man...

And the professor is

this super-young, cool, radical lesbian.

Well, then I think

that's definitely a course you should take.

What's it called again?

"Seminar in Socialism and Marijuana"?

You making fun of me? - No.

It's "Sociology of Marriage."

- I'm not making fun of you. - So...

- There is something I wanted to talk to you about, though.

- Okay.

Are you foolin' around with Edwin?

- Not your business. - No, I know.

Just... just know I get it.

It's an adventure. It's romantic.

People should have romantic adventures.

- Really? - Of course.

Just... you know, be careful.

You're not exactly being discreet.

- And you don't want people to know

that I'm messing around with the help?

- N... hey... hey, I'm not the bad guy here, honey.

But Tyler could find out.

And other people will too.

And if it gets around far enough...

Edwin could get fired.

Even someone who refuses to take

an Intro to Economics class can understand

the consequences of that.

Yeah?

Mr. Tyler, how can I help you?

- So you know that girl, Alison?

- Yeah. I... I do, sir.

Well, we've been kind of seeing each other.

And I wanted to surprise her tonight.

She's been dying to go to Faraway Cay.

Could you set up a catamaran or something?

I can sail it myself.

- Faraway is not easy to navigate.

And it is resort policy that you must have

a staff member attending you.

Perhaps you would like me to take you.

- That's okay.

What about a private picnic on the beach?

- I'll make those arrangements, sir.

It will be a very special night indeed.

- Okay.

Hey, Clairey.

Want to get ice cream before lunch

and not tell Mom and Dad?

- Why are you always so nice to me?

- Because...

you're my sister, dummy.

- Hey, can I ask you something?

- Yeah. - Um...

the other night, I saw your cab driver

walking you to the door.

Oh, I know.

It was raining, and he had an umbrella.

It was so chivalrous.

New York cab drivers. The city's heroes.

- Hmm. No cab driver's ever done that for me.

- Well, no offense, babe, but you're you,

and, um, I'm me.

Oh, shit.

Hi, Mom.

- Hi, sweetheart.

- How are you?

I've been thinking about you all day.

- Mm, I'm okay.

You know, birthdays are hard.

I saw this commercial

with, um, a little girl learning how to swim,

and I was immediately transported

to the first time I took Alison to a lesson.

She mastered the front crawl in all of half an hour.

That was Alison.

Natural at everything.

- Yeah, she was.

And I was such a weirdo.

I don't know how you put up with me.

- You were perfect.

And now you're a superstar documentarian.

And she would have been a star, too.

- She was the best person I ever knew.

And I miss her so much.

- I'm gonna see you very soon.

- Are you and Dad only coming the one night?

Daddy has to teach,

and the cruise leaves first thing the next day.

But we are so excited

about dinner with you and Josh.

- Oh, okay.

Okay. Well, love you, Mom.

- Okay.

For a while after Miranda,

I remember feeling like my parents had died, too,

because the people who lived in my house weren't them.

They were weird, sad mutants

who simultaneously ignored me and smothered me,

who cried at the drop of a hat and yelled for no reason...

And were fucking obsessed with sunscreen.

- I just feel like they worry about me,

but they don't see me or know me.

And they're never gonna love me as much as they loved her.

- No, they are not.

That is not your fault.

Okay?

It's not.

Hey, for what it's worth...

I miss you. I really miss you.

You come back soon, okay?

- I'm trying.

I am, Josh. I...

Look, I have to go to the... To the office

after, um, dinner.

So I'll be late, okay?

- No problem.

Fuck.

- You are a sight for sore eyes.

Tyler, it's so good to see you.

Your parents doin' okay?

I haven't spoken to them in a couple of months.

Yeah. Yes.

My... my mom took a job at the library.

She does story time with the kids, which she loves.

Dad still teaches business classes.

He finally finished a draft of that sci-fi novel

which he won't let me read.

- It's absolutely incredible that they managed

to make a new life for themselves

despite their tragedy.

Not every marriage would survive.

Not every parent would.

Is it true you left Doctors Without Borders?

- I'm over 40. You know?

It's about time I settled down, meet someone.

You know, maybe start a family.

And you? How's Josh?

How are the bears? - Good.

All good.

- Emily, is there a particular reason

you wanted to have dinner?

I saw your mom's Facebook post.

It's her birthday.

- I've been thinking about how unfair it is

we still don't have answers.

- And you want some from me?

- I don't remember a lot about the island.

But what was Edwin like?

- Edwin?

Edwin was charismatic, handsome...

And one of the most duplicitous humans I ever met.

- What do you mean?

- I mean like what they said on 20/20.

He was a snake who slept

with loads of girls before Alison.

But he had her convinced

it was Romeo and Juliet or something.

- And Gogo?

I remember him being kind of sweet, kind.

Was that an act?

- I think he did whatever his friend told him to.

- What do you think happened to them?

Who knows?

Gogo went to prison for drug possession.

And Edwin...

Edwin was obsessed with moving to New York.

So, I mean, the asshole could be in our own backyard.

- Hey, can we talk for a second?

I prefer...

nonverbal communication.

Now, what be on that pretty mind?

- I just wanted to say

I'm having a really great time with you.

Like, an amazing time.

- Mm-hmm.

- But I would never want to do anything

to compromise your job.

So if you can't pursue this, I understand.

- Um, I really appreciate that.

You're a really good person, miss.

"If you can't pursue this, I understand."

She's the funniest whitey you landed yet.

So earnest.

So self-important.

When you gonna do the deed with she? Huh?

- You know how I operate, Des.

Last night of she vacation,

take her to the beach, take her to my car.

Less chance of a angry father then, yo.

- Let's do an excursion today.

You know? Let's do snorkeling

or Faraway Cay tour? - No thanks.

- I think, you know,

if we do something together, just the two of us,

something romantic,

it might help, you know, with the...

Babe, your shoulders are getting burned.

Let me... let me put some of this on you.

- I can do it myself.

Okay, well...

Okay, okay.

I don't think you shouldn't worry about it,

right?

So? He said you were a good person.

- No, it's hard to explain.

It's... I just get the feeling

he's making fun of me sometimes.

- Poor Alison. One of her suitors

isn't worshipping the ground that she walks on

in a suitable fashion.

Perhaps the other one will fare better.

What?

- Tyler says he has

a romantic surprise for me tonight.

- Really? What do you think it is?

- I don't know. I've been hinting

that we should take a catamaran to Faraway Cay.

- The place with the feral goats.

- And the witch who turns sinners into goats.

I wanna see what she would do to me.

- The girl with many boyfriends.

- Exactly.

- Ladies.

Alison, you want to go swimming?

Your sister has been waiting awhile.

- 'Course.

All right. I'll see you later.

- Wash your feet. - Oh, shut up.

I know I'm taking you away.

- Frog your legs.

You're gonna get it!

You're gonna get it!

Hold it. Smile.

Uh, just a Sprite, please.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, hey.

I was just about to... But I... I can stay a little bit.

The usual, Clive?

- Please. MS. - All right.

Let me ring you up.

Thank you.

- Haven't seen you in a couple days.

Work a later shift this week.

- Oh, right.

Cool.

I mean, you can join me if you want.

- Thank you.

- You're quieter than usual...

which is saying something.

- I have a lot on me mind.

I, uh...

I'm seeing someone tomorrow night

I haven't seen in a long, long time.

And I'm just...

Nervous, I guess.

- Another cab driver?

Mm-mm. A friend.

- A friend. - From childhood.

- Wow, that must be exciting.

From your island? A man? A woman?

- Emily, do you really have a boyfriend?

- Yes. Of... of course.

- Because I'm not sure what you're after here.

But I'm not... I'm not interested.

- Oh, no. Me... me neither.

I'm just cu... I'm just curious about you.

- Why? - Why?

Because I don't know anyone like you.

And because I... I'm... I... You're interesting.

- So I'm just your cab driver friend

that you brag about at cocktail parties?

- No. No, it's not like that.

- Then leave me to my business.

Seriously? I don't' want to hear it.

We can't follow him. Not tonight.

You gotta finish this cut.

- Okay, but what if he is?

- It's not him. - Okay, Ty...

Tyler said Edwin always wanted to come to New York.

- It's not Edwin.

Okay, but what if it is?

Seeing them together

is gonna answer everything for me.

Seeing them together is gonna show me

what kind of person Clive really is.

- We know what kind of person he is.

And he basically told you to fuck off last night.

- Edwin is the mastermind.

What if Clive is going there to confront him?

- Oh, my God. You do like him.

And you want a reason for it to be okay.

It's not okay, Em. It never will be.

I looked into his eyes.

And there is a broken man in there.

Whatever Edwin did, whatever happened,

Clive was in real pain. And I could see that.

- Em, you're a kind person.

You've been spending a lot of time with this man,

and you wanna see the best in him.

I get it. I mean, your boyfriend's

a social justice lawyer.

It's difficult to acknowledge

that two Black men did this to a white woman.

It's uncomfortable.

But at the end of the day,

three people drove off that night,

and only two returned.

Even if Edwin did the worst of it,

Clive was still complicit.

- Okay, you're right.

- Look, we can try again with Clive in a couple nights.

I just think you need a little bit of distance

and perspective.

And, Em?

You will finish that cut today.

I went out on a limb for you,

and you might not care about this job, but I do,

so the least you could do is try.

- I will finish the cut.

I'm sorry to make you worry.

Almost done.

Three, two, one...

Sara! Kaia! That is good.

Sara, I got news.

Go show Bery and your brother

that beautiful creation.

Okay.

- Clive, I have not changed my mind.

When you get home,

your gonna find your mom car all fixed up.

You got the tires? GOGO: Mm.

- Where did you get the money from?

Edwin cousin hooked me up.

What?

- Stolen tires, Clive?

- Oh, I didn't steal.

- That's not the point.

Take them back.

- I don't understand you at all.

I don't get you the tires, you mad.

I get you the tires, you still mad.

No matter what I do, it's not good enough.

It's like you always lookin' for a reason to be mad at me

when all I want is to... - You're right. You're right.

You're right.

I'm sorry.

Gogo, I...

- They liked it.

Oh, of course they did.

Come, let's... draw another one.

Okay.

- Sara, I...

I... I heard you broke up with Keithley.

He deserve better.

You know what my mom is like.

And I gonna end up just like she.

- Oh, no, Sara. You are wonderful.

- Gogo, you wrong.

I am awful.

You know, it's my fault

she boyfriend left all those years ago.

And it my fault she be the way she be.

- Well, soon you'll go to university

and you'll get away from she.

- I'm not going to university.

I'm not going anywhere.

I'm going to have to look after she

for the rest of my life.

- I'm sorry.

- What can I do to help?

S... Sara.

Sara, what we doin'? Where we going?

- Is it true you're pregnant?

It is not your business.

- How could you do this to me?

After what I done for you? For your mum?

You promised me...

- I did not ask for this, Edwin.

It was one night with your friend.

A mistake.

What does it matter to you anyways?

He want to marry you.

Do not... do not do it.

Hey, Emilia?

I gotta go get Shrier's dinner.

Don't let her leave until the cut's done.

Bery.

I can't believe you came.

Look at you.

You look amazing. - Thank you.

- You look exactly the same.

You recognize she?

I been runnin' from the Goat Witch

my whole life.

Thought it was time to reclaim she.

- Bery, this is... amazing.

All these people...

Far cry

from the little girl that used to follow

you around like a puppy dog.

I been trying to see you since I moved here.

Ten years.

Why you finally call me now?

- I been... thinkin' about back home.

Talkin' about it with some stranger

I met at the café. And I...

I wanted to be talkin' to someone who knows.

- I do know, Clive.

I know it all. And I do not judge.

Come, I wanna show you around.

I've almost sold half of the pieces.

Who knew?

It's a whole new world we livin' in.

You hear from Desmond?

- No. No.

We do not talk since he started that tour business.

He's an unscrupulous, mercenary, cutthroat

piece of shit.

Speak to Sara?

Not since she remarry.

But she send me pictures sometimes of me son.

- You speak to he?

- I am a stranger to he.

He has a new father now.

We been in touch.

Email, if you can believe it.

- You and...

I told him I'd see you here tonight.

He sent me something.

I didn't have a current email address,

so I printed it for you.

I think you should read it.

Trust me.

Wow. This... this is like a movie.

I know you wanted to go to that island,

but I'm not a fan of goats.

And I thought this would be romantic, but...

is it cheesy?

Little bit, but I like it.

And I like you.

Wanna sit?

Alison...

You're, like, the most special girl I've ever met.

And I really hope we can continue this

after we leave.

Princeton and Yale really aren't so far.

- Wow, Tyler, I...

I don't know.

- Dana, what the fuck is all this?

I'm not Dana.

I know you took these, but I'm not mad.

- You ever get the feeling everyone on this vacation

is having fun but us?

Yeah, we're, uh, definitely the scrub team.

We don't have to be.

You look really pretty tonight.

I can't kiss you with this hat on.

No.

No. No, Tyler.

It'll feel so good.

- Jesus, Tyler. No.

- Alison, I'm-I'm so sorry.

I don't know what came over me.

It's like I had my dad's voice in my head.

- We'll just be friends, okay?

- Looks like Ken and Barbie broke up.

Um, actually, he looks upset.

Let me just, um... I just...

I just need to... Two seconds, okay?

Just stay there. For... I just want to make... yeah.

Hey, Tyler.

Tyler, wait. Wait up. Hey!

Well, well, well.

I don't want your tires.

Why not?

- Because whatever this be, it needs to stop.

Since we were children,

you badmouth me to your friends,

to Gogo.

You do things for me to control me,

and you never tell me why.

So if you have feelings for me,

then you just need to come out and say it.

Or get over it, because this is too much.

What would Clive think if he knew?

- You have no idea what you're talking about.

Hey.

I've been calling you.

- I told you to get your work done.

Okay, you were right.

He didn't meet up with Edwin.

But his friend gave him a letter

which has to be from Edwin.

It made him cry, Sun, okay?

So whatever's in that letter, it m... I need to...

- Are you there? - You got fired.

And you got me fucking fired too.

So I don't give a shit about a goddamn letter, okay?

Hello.

Um, my girlfriend,

uh, brought home some amazing plantains

from here the other night, and it was just so good.

Um, maybe you remember her.

She's petite, blonde. Her name's Emily.

Are you gonna order,

or just be tellin' me your life story?

- Um...

Order. Uh, plantains.

- Mm-hmm. - Please.

And a jerk chicken to go.

Here you go.

- Can you, uh...

- Cash. - Cash.

Thank you.

- Thank you. Keep the change.

Woof!
