[loud thumping]

[glass rattling]

[police radio chatter]

- Room to room, guys.
- You guys go.

- Oh.
- Look up there.

Move back.

Go outside.

Clear.

[Karim] You all ready?

This is the part of the house
where shit gets weird.

[breathes deeply]

[doorknob turning]

[creaking]

[man] What's up?

I don't know, man.

I don't know.

[leaves rustling softly]

[gentle creaking]

[whispering voices]

- [bird flies off]
- [gasps] Buck!

[whimpers]

[grunting]

[children playing]

[gasps]

[gasping]

Oh, you're awake.

How do you feel?

You took me out of the house.

Why?

Do you know how long it took me
to get there? To get that far?

You were dying.

- You were on the verge of death.
- Yeah, that's what you saw.

[knock at door]

Oh, good. Both of you.

Hi, I'm Dr. Bradfield.
I admitted you two the other night.

- I just got your toxicology back.
- Toxicology for what?

You each have dangerous levels
of mercury sulfide in your blood.

990 ppm for Mr. Washington,

and, for Ms. Uzochi,

approaching 3,000.

We were drugged?

You were poisoned.

According
to Environmental Health Services,

it's a naturally occurring gas
emanating in the area.

- It's been reported many times.
- Right.

And is that enough mercury sulfide
to produce hallucinations?

[Dr. Bradfield] More than enough.

Any more exposure
could be very dangerous.

You need to detox.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

[curtain closes]

[door closes]

Ruskin must've known
about the mercury sulfide.

[Fola] Yeah, maybe. Maybe not.

[Karim] He's deliberately poisoning kids.

This predates Ruskin.

There's a spring under the house.
It's been there for centuries.

It's where the vapors come from.

How do you know this?

Anybody who's this far
in the puzzle knows it.

Native Americans considered it sacred.

The Ohlone tribe wouldn't build
on Nob Hill because of it.

Their priests use the vapors
to induce prophetic trances.

And what?
That's supposed to exonerate Ruskin,

because the Ohlone tribe
once got high there?

Jesus Christ!

No.

[sighs]

You know, even if he didn't know
about the gas,

he saw all those kids crackin' up.

You know, after the second, the third,
he knew somethin' was wrong,

and he let it go on,
he kept luring them with his game.

He's crowdsourcing.

- He wants us to solve the house...
- So what?

The house.

Figure out what it is, how it works.

Get to the rose window.

How do you know about that?

Anyone who knows, knows.

I'm going back in there.

Are you crazy?

Huh?

Are you crazy?

Did you hear the doctor?

You're gonna die in there,
or you're gonna lose your mind.

All those kids that cracked up,
that was from overexposure.

So, what am I supposed to do out here,

now that I know if I can get
to the rose window, I can see the truth?

Listen...

you're extremely intelligent, okay?

There are thousands of young,
smart people playin' that game.

You got further than 99% of them.

Okay, uh... let's imagine
I nab a cush tech job. Then what?

Then what?

You know how many people would kill
for that?

I don't give a shit what they do.
What do I do once I get the job?

Work my way up, bigger salary,

find a life partner,
settle down, have some kids,

get old, die,
and leave my high net worth

to a kid who doesn't even know
why she's alive either?

[Karim] Why don't you study
philosophy or religion?

That's what I'm doing.

Only not in churches and not in books.

Okay.

I'm telling the doctor to keep you here
until I'm back.

You're not goin' into that death trap.

Okay? No one is.

[sirens wailing]

[siren whoops]

[police radio chatter]

Ms. Azarova, this way.

Here.

All kinds of people have been here,
looking for you.

Your boyfriend.

A tall man with dark hair
who's not your boyfriend.

Another man with dark hair,
not so tall.

Maybe also your boyfriend.

I only have one boyfriend, Al.

And I know he didn't come,
because he's forgotten who I am.

Actually, I do have another one,
but I haven't met him yet.

You're a lifesaver. Thank you.

I'll be at my desk all day.

Call me if you need something...

Oh, my God, Nina!

They must have come in at night
when Bobby was working.

- [woman screams]
- [gasps]

[thumping]

[recording of
woman speaking Russian plays]

[thumping continues]

[recording of woman speaking Russian
continues playing]

[recording grows louder]

[thumping grows louder]

[wind whistling]

[recording continues playing]

Who would have done this?

They were looking for something.

[switches off recording]

For what?

I don't know.

Something more valuable than pearls?

My father used to say that the best place
to hide something is in plain sight.

Things that are hidden out in the open
are the most difficult to see.

Then it must be
right in front of our eyes.

[gasps]

- [upbeat music playing]
- [grunts]

- [doorbell rings]
- [knocking at door]

Oh.

- [Dr. Percy] I'm looking for Homer.
- [man] He's upstairs.

[Dr. Percy] Thank you.

[footsteps climbing]

Dr. Percy?

- What are you doing here?
- [switches music off]

How are you feeling?
Darmi said you called in sick.

Yeah.

[sighs] I've been feeling
a little bit off lately.

Oh. Well, I'm sorry to show up like this,
but I don't think it can wait.

You feel up to sharing the details
of your conversation with Scott?

Okay.

[recorder bleeps]

[Dr. Roberts] Scott, tell me
what happened when you died.

[Scott]
I was blinded by the bright lights.

The lights were everywhere.

We were in a warehouse.

I saw OA.

It was her...

and not her.

And Hap didn't call her OA.

He called her... Brin, or somethin'.

He said somethin' to her,
and she laughed...

and kissed him...

like they were a couple.

There were cameras in the air
above 'em.

Hap called out to someone,
but his voice was different.

He spoke with a... a British accent.

And then, a older woman,

heavyset, comes up behind me

and says, "I'm here to give you
the third movement."

[recorder bleeps]

What do you think it means?

Oh, uh... I have a theory,
but I'd like to test it first.

Huh.

Okay. Thanks.

Dr.Percy.

Rachel DeGrasso isn't at Perkins.

I called.

[sighs]

All right. Well...

I'm sorry to have to tell you this,
but Rachel's dead.

What?

After the incident the other day

where you allowed Nina Azarova
to interact with the other patients,

and they elaborated
on their shared delusion...

she cut her throat.

Uh...

Why didn't you tell me?

[sighs]

Now, look...

the truth is...

I've been worried about you, Homer.

That you might be getting lost
in the delusion yourself.

You have the same concern, yes?

- Fuck!
- No, no, no, no. No, no. It's okay.

It's okay. You're just having trouble
navigating the line

between what's real and what isn't.

It's an occupational hazard.

Because... you empathize so deeply
with others.

It's your greatest strength...

and your greatest weakness.

[sighs]

But I can help you.

Will you let me help you?

Can you?

Yes.

Try and clear your head,

and then come
by the office later on tonight.

- We'll work through this, okay?
- Okay.

[knocking at door]

[knocking]

Karim!

What happened? Where have you been?

- I fell asleep in a park.
- I couldn't find you.

I came by your place several times.
I called your phone 20 times.

- Why do you always disappear?
- Why are you so angry?

[sighs]

- Did you find...
- No.

No, I haven't.

[OA sighs]
I'm sorry I lost you in the house.

I heard this sound.
I thought it was you or maybe...

But then it was a tree, and it just...

We were poisoned by vapors
from under the house.

[sighs]

Look.

I think I found something important.

Nina...

We started in a pure place with your idea.

Listen to dreamers.

That's all I wanted, to listen.

But somehow...

This came in today.

I wish I never looked at it.

I'm out, Nina.

I'd like to think this isn't my fault.

But that's a lie
I can't tell myself anymore.

Buck.

[[Buck gasping]

[gasps]

Where did you get this?

Nina had it. I don't know how she got it.
She had it when I arrived.

What do you mean, Nina had it
when you arrived? Arrived where?

I know the person you call Michelle Vu,

but as a young man, as Buck Vu.

- She's trans?
- He is.

What else do you remember?

It isn't what I remember from here.

It's what I know
from someplace else, because...

Because?

I'm from another dimension.

I traveled here from a different reality

where Buck and his friends healed me,
helped send me here.

That's when I arrived in Nina's body.

But my consciousness suppressed Nina's,
so I haven't had access to her memories.

If I could just get Nina to come up,
she knows things I don't know.

Yeah, I was just thinking the same thing,
you know?

Nina knows things.

Let me put my earlier question
another way.

If Nina had the USB drive
when you arrived,

then how did it come
to be in your hands now?

- I... I found it on a silver tray.
- You found it on a silver tray?

Yes. In my apartment. Her apartment.

Right. Why didn't you find it
the first time we went there?

I wasn't remembering her memories.

But you remembered the code
to the closet.

I don't know how this works.
She comes out in flashes.

Oh, how convenient!

Karim, listen to me.
I'm telling you the truth.

Get off my boat.

- We have to find Buck.
- We?

"We have to find her."
You know what I think?

I think you know where Michelle is.
I think you know exactly where she is.

I think she's probably
on a silver platter somewhere

just waiting for someone
to conveniently remember her,

but you won't, because you're a coward.

You did something to her,

or you allowed something
to be done to her,

and you can't face your own guilt,
so you want me to find her for you.

I would never harm a child.
Not in this dimension, not in any.

You can't even face reality!
You think you're from another dimension!

You don't think I know
that sounds insane?

That it's difficult to hear?

I'm asking you to imagine

that reality is stranger
and more complicated

than you or I could possibly know.

And sometimes we get glimpses of it
in dreams, or in déjà vu.

When you feel like what's happening now
has happened before.

Well, maybe it has...

but a little differently...
and somewhere else.

[tapping at phone]

What are you doing?

- [ringing tone]
- I'm calling the cops.

I made a big mistake,
breaking you out of that asylum.

If you won't get off my boat,
I'll have you forcibly removed.

Until I find a body,
I'm still on this case.

That's your problem.

You're looking for a body.

[door closes]

[phone clatters]

[ringing tone]

[man] SYZYGY. Ms. Azarova?

Yes.

I'm coming tonight.

You can take the restraints off, Salvador.

It's all right. I'll be fine.

[restraints rattling]

- [grunts]
- [Dr. Percy] Just take it and go.

Thank you.

[sighs]

You want one?

What in the heck-fire is that?

[chuckles]

I'm gonna release you
from the clinic, Scott.

Wh... Uh... What about Renata?

Renata's not ready.

She hasn't made the adjustment well.
She's actually better off here, but...

you're fine, and truth is,
I have no right to keep you.

You wanna keep Renata here because you
need someone who knows the movements.

I'm done with the movements, all of it.

It causes too much pain.

I like it here.

And I'm...

I'm trying to make peace with the past.

Move on to something better.

There's interesting work to be done...

helping people.

Should have you processed and out of here
by the end of the day tomorrow.

Oh! There was a favor...

I would like before you leave.

Help me with, uh, an experiment?

Shouldn't take more
than a couple of hours.

And what would it take to tempt you?

Go to the cops,
turn yourself in for Rachel's murder.

Rachel's fine.

But when you're released,
you tell them yourself.

Accuse me of anything you want.

I mean, you have a history
of mental illness in this dimension, so...

I don't know how well that would go.

But go ahead and try.

So... are we good?

Let Renata go, too.

You let her go, I'll be your lab rat.

One last time.

[crows cawing]

[creaking]

[crows cawing]

[cawing continues]

[loud cawing]

[gags]

Hap, it's, uh, wet in here.

I don't like water.

[Dr. Percy]
Don't worry. I'll talk you through it.

It's a puzzle. We'll solve it together.

Fuck me.

[ringing tone]

This is Mo with Data Analysis Solution.

Leave a message, and I'll get back to you
as soon as possible.

- [beep]
- [Karim] Mo? Mo, I need you to pick up.

Marlow Rhodes is dead.

Please call me.

You know what? Fuck it. I'm comin' over.

[knocking at door]

- Mo?
- [Mo] Holy shit!

I'm trying to have a baby.
Give me a minute. Oh!

- Seriously?
- [Mo] Okay!

Seriously?

Yes, Karim. Seriously, I'm in labor.

- [chuckles]
- [woman] How we doin', Momma?

Eight minutes apart. [winces]

- Who's that?
- My doula, Ruthie.

- [groans]
- What's a doula?

A birth coach, Karim.

Right. Listen,
I'm goin' to Ruskin's tonight.

This has photographic evidence
of the murder of Dr. Rhodes.

It also has a video
of the missing girl, Michelle Vu.

- Both track to Pierre Ruskin.
- Really? That's...

- Oh, shit! Seven minutes!
- [Ruthie chuckles] I'm comin', Momma.

- Oh, you must be Karim.
- [gasps]

Yeah. Um,
he's just dropping something off.

Okay. Well, good news.
Dr. Park says she'll be up

- from San Jose in about an hour.
- Uh-huh.

- Can you wait?
- [Mo] Um, it's not up to me.

[laughs]

Don't worry.

I got this.

Do I look worried?

Yes.

[loud rock music playing]

Nina!

Your performance.

Aleksei is so mad about the octopus.

I'm more upset than he is.

Listen, Victor,
you knew I was in the hospital.

Exactly, yes.

But my memories are coming back
to me slowly.

That's why I came tonight.

Can you help me remember?

Tell you about yourself?

Yeah.

You are...

a pain in the ass.

You enjoy drinking too much.
You enjoy smoking too much.

You used to dance on my tables
and break them.

But when you started making performances
from your own dreams,

you bring me many customers.

You make this place a sensation.

So... [chuckles]
I cannot be too mad at you.

You even enjoy sex too much.

[gulps]

Not my place. Okay.

Can a woman really enjoy sex too much?

[in French]
It's a little macho to say that.

[Victor] You're French?

Mmm...
I've traveled a lot in my life.

[woman] Victor! [speaks French]

- Excuse me.
- Oh...

You're the one Dr. Percy loves.

How long have you known Dr. Percy?

Long enough
for him to send me to the hospital,

but that's Hap.

Who are you?

You know.

Think of me in any way you like.

An adviser, a guide, a resource...

a messenger.

Can I have another one?

But you're a traveler, like me.

Yes.

[laughs]

Can I ask you something?

When you travel, can you...

remember the memories
of the body you're inside of?

Of course.

I don't suppress the consciousness
of the body that hosts me.

That would be vicious.

I integrate.

Integrate?

I share in the experiences
of all the bodies that hold me.

I think that Nina knows things
I have to understand to expose Hap,

so Homer will come to his senses,
and we can get...

You can't escape him.

[scoffs] Wh... Why not?

Why do you think the bonds
between some people are so powerful?

It's because they exist
across many dimensions,

like a cosmic family.

You, Hap, and Homer,
you belong within the same constellation.

You're traveling together.

- I don't want to travel with Hap.
- Some part of you does.

That's why Nina, Dr. Percy,
and Dr. Roberts are connected, too...

long before you arrived
in this dimension.

When did you first meet Hap?

Seven years ago at the Oyster Bar
in New York.

I bet that's around when Nina
met Dr. Percy.

So, the events in one dimension...

Affect the other dimensions around it.

- They echo.
- Oh.

When people meet,
and the story between them is strong,

it echoes in nearby dimensions.

Events will conspire
to bring these people together.

So, when I met Buck
in the abandoned house

and started to tell him the story
of my life in another dimension,

Michelle begins playing the game
that will lead her to Nina's house.

- Everything is connected.
- Mm.

So, how do we escape this echo?

To leave an echo is very dangerous.

You could find yourself inside a life
completely unrecognizable to you.

You would shatter yourself.

Not to mention, you and Homer
may not even know one another

in a dimension outside an echo.

Hm.

You need Hap.

He's a murderer.

He's your shadow.

Who has no shadow has no will to live.

I have plenty of will to live,
and it doesn't come from him.

I have given Hap something.

I only gave it to him
so I could give you something.

I'm a creature of balance.

But I think you're too stubborn
to receive it.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

I'm listening.

If you want to rescue Homer,

you must first free Nina Azarova.

Why should Dr. Roberts do
what you yourself will not?

You came out to the club to find her,
but she has always been within you.

If you integrate with Nina,

you will become whole.

- [crash]
- [gasps]

[Elodie] You share the same beginning.

You must get back to the time
before your paths split.

[OA] How?

[Elodie] You must face your fear.

[gasps]

Hap.

Hap.

You have to go back to the moment
of your greatest trauma.

I have high hopes for you.

[gasping]

[whirring sounds]

[creaking]

[loud whirring]

[rumbling]

[whirring and rumbling grow louder]

[gasping]

[silence falls]

[Dr. Roberts] Is the girl in the dream

your childhood self
or Nina Azarova's childhood self?

I think they're the same person.

[Dr. Roberts]
Then are you and Nina the same person?

I don't know her.
I don't want to know her.

[Dr. Roberts]
Then aren't you just like Hap?

You've put Nina in a box, too.

Buried her somewhere deep in your mind.

She wants to come out.

She's knocking at the door
of your dream.

[church bell rings]

[breathing deeply]

[girl screams]

[screaming]

[church bell rings]

[exhales slowly]

[exhales shakily]

[breathing deeply]

[grunts]

[grunting]

[loud thumping]

[thumping gets louder]

[silence]

[man] Nina!

[cheering and laughter]

[Nina, in Russian accent]
Nothing is holding me back.

[whispering in Russian]

[Nina speaking Russian]

[gasps]

[thunder rumbling]

It's great to finally meet you.

Pierre Ruskin.

- I know.
- You're short of breath.

You should try meditating.
It's much more effective than nicotine.

How do you know I smoke?

[bleep]

You're a superb investigator.

But you must know that.

[chuckles]

You didn't do anything
the way I thought you would.

But when you broke Nina
out of the asylum,

not only violating
your professional code of ethics,

but... committing a felony,

I thought, "This man will do anything."

What do you want, Mr. Washington?

You came to me.
It's your meeting, as we like to say.

Yes. I've seen that video many times.

Yeah, what happened to Michelle Vu?

Honestly, I don't know.

There's a boy, Liam Burks,
cracked up, jumped out a window.

God knows how many other kids...

- How many other kids have gone mad.
- Yeah, and you didn't stop it.

You kept your fucking game online
to lure them into a poison house

where they destroyed themselves.

- You freely admit it?
- Yes.

And I'll assume you're wearing a wire.

You have quite a history of doing that,
don't you?

It's fine. I acknowledge
everything that you're saying.

I've had lawyers on this from the start.
They assure me that I'm safe.

- They put a disclaimer...
- Yeah!

It's fucking professional bullshit
to scare off the victims.

They can't give you legal permission
to harm them.

Then let them sue me.

Lots of people have tried
to take me down before.

Let's see how they handle a trial

- that drags on for years.
- Yeah. Could you handle it?

Having the whole world find out
the Prophet of the Valley's no better

than some cheap sweatshop foreman?

- Okay, Mr. Washington...
- Poisonin' little kids,

killin' any employee who gets in his way.

Could you handle this video
all over the Internet? Huh?

Late-night comics makin' jokes,

- prosecutors feelin' the heat.
- Come with me.

Tell me if you think a jury
can handle this.

Dr. Rhodes sends Nina hard evidence
exposing your crimes.

A few days later,
Nina's confined to a mental ward,

and Dr. Rhodes is dead.

It's pretty simple, right?

Speak up.
I want to be sure I get this part.

Yes.

It was a tragedy
that Dr. Rhodes took her own life.

Brilliant people are often troubled.

Huh. That's funny.

'Cause when I left her house,
her body was still warm.

How exactly do you know
she killed herself?

A sweatshop foreman is desperate
to improve his margins.

What are my motives for these crimes?

You don't have the why, Mr. Washington.

That house.

Ah, the haunted house on Nob Hill.

Your hypothetical jury's gonna love that.

Come with me. I promise,
I'm not one to waste a man's time.

Our ancestors, the hunters, the gatherers,

they looked up at the moon,
and they saw a goddess,

something to be worshiped from afar.

We looked up at the moon
and wanted to land there.

The entire space race was all about
who could put a man on the moon first.

We were obsessed.

But it wasn't until after we landed there
that we realized the true prize.

Turning around
and looking back at the Earth.

Seeing that living blue planet,

it cracked open quite a few minds.

A single spot of life surrounded
by darkness.

Every astronaut who's had that perspective
described the Earth as a miracle,

a dazzling overview.

It changed human consciousness forever.

That helps Michelle Vu how?

How many people died getting a man
on the moon, Mr. Washington?

Yeah, but they chose to take that risk.
They weren't tricked into it.

That seems naive, but...

let's assume that you're right.

Does it really matter?

Or does it matter
that we gained that perspective?

It matters how we got there,
or else nothing matters.

[chuckles]

Good God!

- [man] Can you hear me?
- [woman] Oh, God!

- Call a medic!
- [man] Call an ambulance!

- [woman] I...
- [siren wailing]

- [crowd chanting]
- [man] Are you all right?

[woman] Can you hear me? Can you hear me?

- [people shouting]
- [woman] Hurry!

Huh?

[sighs]

You set me up.

- You said you'd find my granddaughter.
- Your granddaughter's right here.

That's not Michelle.

Michelle is still in the house.

You said you'd find her.

That's all there is. That's the end.

I'm sorry.

[sighs]

[running footsteps]

[Ruskin] Just one more thing.

[Karim] You're not used to people
just walkin' away, are you?

And that's why you killed Rhodes.

'Cause she had the fuckin' nerve
to walk away.

Did she tell you the story?

CURI's very own fairy tale?

The dreamers all dreamt of four things.

- I thought it was three.
- Yes.

A tunnel the size of a coffin,
a curved, double-sided staircase,

and a rose window.

But after a while,

all the dreamers that dreamed
of those three things

began to dream of a fourth thing.

Do you know what it was?

It was a man's face.

But it's hard to describe a face
from a dream.

So I flew in all the best police sketch
artists from around the world,

brought them to CURI.

In the end, we had 20-odd sketches.

And they were all the same face.

The house is calling you.

You... and only you.

And I don't know
what it wants to show you, but...

I have a feeling it's akin
to what the astronauts saw

when they looked at Earth
from the moon.

It's an overview.

[in Russian accent] Tell Dr. Percy
Nina Azarova is here to see him.
