(ominous music)

- [Jack Voiceover] I almost believed you.

A supernatural event.

That I was supposed to be a part of something.

- Hi, Mom?

Yeah, I...

Yeah. Yeah, I think that I'm getting stood up.

- [Jack Voiceover] I went back there.

Couple times, actually, but...

She wasn't there.

- Yeah, I know. This just keeps happening to me, though.

- [Jack Voiceover] I was thinking maybe I can't cut corners.

Maybe I was messing it up.

Maybe it didn't work if things were not lined up just right.

(tense, energetic music)

- Hey! Wake up!

So, what do you think I'm gonna ask for?

Gungnir's missing.

- I did everything the same.

I dealt with Gungnir,

I came here, I stole this appointment...

- You stole this appointment?

- [Jack] Are you the eight o'clock?

Earl says hi, by the way.

Or at least I was close as possible,

because like I said before...

- You know they actually have vaping competitions?

- [Jack Voiceover] It's not always predictable.

Well, people are always looking for ways

to waste their time.

- No, no, this is a serious thing.

I mean, you got these guys who can make shapes

like they're Gandalf or somethin'.

All right, there's this one guy.

While he was doin' it, he was bobbin' his head up and down

like he was a chicken or somethin', right?

But then, when he lets it out,

I swear it was Nixon's face.

Well, you had to squint your eyes just a little bit,

but there it was.

Nixon.

- Yeah...

Listen, about that blind date,

can you still set it up?

- Really?

- Sure.

- Well, yeah.

Great.

(lively Latin music)

- I'm gonna be honest, I almost didn't come.

- No way.

- Yeah. You know, blind dates, they-

- Never go well?

I know exactly what you mean.

I didn't wanna come.

- Really? Why'd you come?

- I think I need to come.

- Yeah, yeah, I totally get that.

Um, so what do you like to do?

- Nothing.

You?

- Uh, I mean, mostly work.

We do a girls' night like once a week,

but I think more than once a week

and I would probably lose my mind.

- Drama?

- Yeah, exactly.

Um, I did a mud run last month.

Have you heard of those?

- Yep. Love it.

- [Molly] Oh! Really?

Have you done one? - No.

I just like the idea of running around with all the mud.

- I mean, yeah. Yeah, they're actually really fun.

It is way more fun than the cancer run.

That was just depressing.

I just decided to get out and do things, you know?

- Yep.

- Yeah, I mean, I was so busy with work

that I wasn't really doing anything else.

I would just go home and binge-watch TV shows,

and after a while it just feels

like life is passing you by, you know?

- I know exactly what you mean.

You don't take care of yourself,

you don't exercise, you have zero energy.

- Wow, that's,

that's exactly what I was gonna say.

Um, have you heard of Genaprox?

That's actually how I got my energy back.

I mean, it completely changed everything in my life.

I mean, really,

how often do you think about your gut health?

- Oh, I think about it all the time.

My colon probably looks like a smoker's lung.

- Really?

Um, I actually have a card here for you

if you'd like to look at it.

We're having a meeting this Thursday.

I'd love it if you would come.

- Absolutely. I'll be there.

Speaking of colons, I need to go to the bathroom.

(lively music) (singing in Spanish)

This isn't the men's room.

(distant train whistle blows)

- Um...

What's going on?

- Sorry, Molly. I got some bad news.

It's not gonna work out.

- Uh, well, are you still coming on Thursday?

- Sure.

(crickets chirping)

- [Jack Voiceover] It doesn't make sense.

You can't save someone if they aren't there.

(helicopter buzzing)

I'm an idiot.

I'm an idiot for thinking that God

had anything to do with this.

I'm just stuck in some time continuum or something.

- I'm gonna ask you a question

and I want you to tell me the truth, okay?

- Sure. - Because there needs to be

some level of trust between us, right?

- Right.

- What substances are you on?

- I'm sorry? - Where did you get them?

On the streets? Prescriptions?

(banging on door) - What are you talking about?

- Is everything okay in here?

- This is him, Officer.

- What, what's goin' on? - Sir, come over here.

You called the police?

- Sir! Come over here!

- Is this really necessary?

I was just sitting in a chair. I didn't do anything.

- Sir, get on the ground.

- This is because I stole the appointment, isn't-

(taser popping) (Jack groaning)

Ah!

(Jack grunts)

- Is he gonna be okay?

- I've never seen 'em drop like that.

(energetic synth music)

- [Max] Hey!

Hey!

- No.

Just...

No.

(phone ringing)

- Sir?

Are you listening to me?

- Not really.

No.

(pen sizzles)

And they give you 15 minutes for this?

- Well, were you stoned?

Now, it's all right. You can tell me if you were stoned.

I'm still gonna love you.

Now, I might reconsider giving you money at Christmastime-

- No.

I am not, nor have been, stoned.

- So you go see this person,

and you tell her about living the same thing over,

day after day.

And in turn she tases you?

- She didn't, a cop did.

- Right, but she called the cop?

- Yes.

- She probably thought you were stoned.

- Yes.

- You might wanna consider

a more delicate approach next time.

- Oh, there won't be a next time because I'm not going back.

After all, the idea was a sham.

And she made it clearly evident

that she thought I was crazy,

just like everyone else.

- Well, what was her idea?

- That God wants me to do something.

- What does he want you to do?

- He doesn't want me to do anything.

- Well, now, that doesn't make any sense.

- Papaw, he doesn't want me to do anything

because that's not what's going on here.

God has nothing to do with this.

It was...

It was a stupid idea.

- Hmm, and maybe what she's saying's logical.

- What part of this is logical?

None of this makes any sense.

(phone buzzing)

- Is that your phone?

- Yes.

Sorry. - Phones go in the pot!

- Papaw, I know. I just forgot.

- How you do forget?

You walk in, you put the phone in the pot.

- It was an accident.

- An accident?

Do you know how they listen?

And they can trace that to within an inch.

- Papaw!

No one cares.

No one is out to get you.

No one is listening to you.

And even if they were listening in,

no one on Earth cares what you have to say.

- Yeah.

Okay.

- I didn't mean it like that.

Here's to another day.

(glass crashes)

- [Officer] Sir, if you can,

I need you to turn around for me, we got the road blocked.

We got an incident up here.

- Uh, what's goin' on?

- Well, I'm not supposed to say anything, but we got a...

We found a dead girl up here.

So I just need you to go ahead and make a U-turn right here.

The road's blocked.

- Wait, what's she look like?

- Just, I need you to go ahead and make a U-turn

right up here for me, sir. - Wait! Wait, wait, wait!

What's she look like? - Thank you, sir.

- What's she look like?

- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

Just wanted to wish you a good morning,

and also Gungnir is missing again.

- You're reliving the same day over and over?

- That's right.

- Uh-huh.

And we've had this conversation before.

- Yes. It's a supernatural event.

- I'm gonna be honest with you

and say that I've never had a patient talk like this.

- I get it. It's a lot to take in.

So we're gonna need a system.

- A system?

- Right. A way to catch you up to speed faster.

- I don't understand.

- What's the last thing you thought about

last night before you went to bed?

- I don't usually talk about myself.

- Please, for today. Just play along.

The last thing you thought about.

- That no one came to my college reunion.

- What? - We have a class of over 400

and only 30 people came to the reunion.

And they served chicken biscuits.

I always thought of a biscuit as a breakfast thing.

It was depressing.

- Oh.

- Hey! Hey!

(Max grunting)

(bodies thud)

- [Jack] I hate it when you do that.

- Tell her I said hi.

- So why'd you go?

To the reunion.

- I thought I would see some old friends,

but they didn't show.

They all have kids now.

Okay, so why are you here?

- I can't figure out why she was there one day

but not since.

- You said the days aren't the same.

- Right. There are always variables.

But I tried to repeat everything as closely as possible,

and she wasn't there.

- Well, maybe that was just one bad day

and the other days have had better outcomes.

- No, I don't think so.

- Why not?

- You said it was a supernatural event.

That God was trying to show me something.

- I said that?

- Yes.

- In all these days you've been reliving,

you've only seen her once?

- Right.

- Maybe it's not the one thing.

- What?

- Maybe this is more than just about saving the girl.

- Can you just look at this?

Your company's stock price has risen 20-plus percent

every quarter, like clockwork.

But this is the actual accounting.

And as far as we can tell, these numbers just don't add up.

- [Auditor Two] Are you listening to this?

- Every day.

- You know what this looks like?

- Math?

- Enron.

It looks like Enron.

- Let me ask you guys something.

Let's just pretend that everything you're saying is true.

What are the implications?

- [Auditor One] Implications?

- The damage?

- You remember back when the housing market crashed in 2008?

I had to go live in a mobile home for eight months.

You know what that's like?

Living in a mobile home with four kids?

They had to switch schools.

They still think it's my fault.

That's why I do this.

- It's evil, pure and simple.

- If you were to accidentally get on the elevator

and go to the 25th floor,

to the southeast corner of the building,

you may or may not find something interesting.

- What would we find?

- I, of course, didn't tell you that.

But if you were feeling curious,

that's where I'd try.

(elevator bell dings)

(shredder whirring)

- So why'd you come?

- I wasn't very nice to you before.

- Before?

- Listen.

I think you're a very nice person,

and I would love to have dinner with you

and get to know you,

but I'm not interested in anything else.

Not protein powders, not essential oils, nothing.

Just you, me,

dinner, and...

- I...

And?

- Pleasant conversation.

You know,

thoughts, feelings, life.

- (laughs) Okay.

Yeah, I think I'm game.

- Great.

Hey, do you mind if I run to the bathroom real quick?

- [Molly] Sure.

(lively Latin music)

(singing in Spanish)

- So.

You ever do a mud run?

(ominous music)

(engine cranks)

(tense synth music)

(engine roaring)

(suspenseful music)

- [Woman] Let go of me! Stop!

- Run!

(gunshot cracks)

(ominous music)

(flash drive clicks)

- Who are you?

(dramatic music)

(Jack grunts)

(pensive music)

(stick clatters)

(tires screech)

(crickets chirping)

(Max humming a tune)

- Hey! What's-

- I need to know what's on this, now.

- I'm right in the middle of-

- Now, Max! Right now!

- Fine! No problem.

What's wrong with you?

- [Jack] Just do it!

- [Max] What's on your ankle?

- [Jack] What?

- Is that like a fitness tracker or somethin'?

You know, I've been wanting to get one of those.

I'm gettin' a little chub in the gut, you know?

Hey, hey, does that monitor your heart?

(car approaching)

- Just do it!

- [Max] You need to work on your treatment of people.

It's encrypted.

- Then un-encrypt it.

- [Max] What do you mean, "Un-encrypt it"?

- I mean you're a nerd geek. Do what you do!

- You're not being very nice.

- Max! Pretty please with cherries.

Do it!

(ominous music)

(doorknob rattles) - I don't appreciate sarcasm.

- How long is it gonna take?

- [Max] Dude! What's your deal?

- [Jack] I need it now!

- [Max] Well, it's gonna take a little bit more than that.

- I will call your controller by its name from now on

if you give me anything, something, right now!

- Wait, really?

- Max! - Um, duh, there's a PDF.

- A PDF? - Yeah.

A letter. The letterheads from Paola Foust?

- Paola Foust?

- Yeah, "From the desk of Paola Foust."

- That's it?

- What do you mean, "That's it"? I haven't read it yet.

Do you see how long that thing is?

(dogs barking)

- We gotta go! - What?

- [Jack] Come on! Run!

- Who is that?

- [Jack] We gotta move!

(gunshots crack) (glass crashing)

- [Max] I'm going! Jack, who is that?

Call the police! - No!

- [Max] Call the...

What are you doing?

We need to call the police! Come on!

What are you doing? What are you doing?

- Hey! Hey!

- [Jack] I need your help.

- Okay.

Apparently she's a congresswoman.

- What?

- Paola Foust, congresswoman from Congressional District 23.

- I don't recognize her name.

- Well, we're in District 24.

We've never voted for her.

- Oh. - Please tell me you voted.

Hey, why are we looking her up again?

- Curiosity.

- Can I help you?

- Yeah, that's very nice.

Um, it looks a little bit masculine.

- Okay.

- So if you would just use- - Congresswoman?

He's here.

- [Paola] So can you just change it up?

- Okay. Certainly.

We'll get this fixed for you right away.

- Thank you.

So, are you looking for Ms. Ross?

- Uh, maybe.

I'm actually not sure.

Is that her name? Ross?

- Ms. Ross.

You don't know her name?

- We meet at a restaurant,

and I didn't the chance to finish my conversation with her.

I thought she might work here.

- Why would you think that?

- She had a letter with a header:

"From the desk of Paola Foust."

- So you've come to find her.

- Trying to.

- (laughs) How very Jane Austen.

- Sure.

(Paola chuckles)

- You have no idea who I am, do you?

- Sorry.

- I'm Paola Foust.

- Oh. You're the congresswoman.

- Yes, of Texas' great District 23.

- I've never met a congressperson before.

Am I supposed to bow?

- So what was in the letter?

- What letter?

- You said Ms. Ross had a letter.

- I don't know. I didn't read it, just saw the top.

- And that was in a restaurant?

Which one?

- Las Vaqueras.

- Never heard of it.

- It's Mexican.

Um, listen, I'm just trying to find her.

- We are all trying to find her.

- What do you mean?

- You don't keep up with the news much, do you?

Ms. Ross was supposed to appear in a hearing this morning

and she didn't show up.

She's one of our staffers,

so I think you can imagine how concerned we are.

- Sure.

Sure.

- By chance, did she seem okay when you met her?

- Actually, no. She seemed a bit distressed.

- Did she say what about?

- Our conversation was brief.

- [Secretary] Ma'am?

- Listen, I'd very much like to discuss this further,

but I have a meeting I have to get to.

But I would like to ask you for a favor, if I may.

- Okay.

- I want you to take one of my people

and show them this restaurant of yours,

just in case she turns up there again.

- I need to get back to work.

- It would seem Ms. Ross and your country needs you,

and you wouldn't want to let them down, would you?

Mister- - Ma'am?

- This young man will be running an errand with you.

(ominous music)

- Where are we going?

(dramatic music)

(energetic synth music)
