01x07 - My Mother Saw a Monkey

Post by bunniefuu »

Previously on Y: The Last Man...

We've got eyes on Agent Burgin.
Holed up in a church.

- Nowhere, Pennsylvania.
- I have a visual.

Permission to engage?

KIMBERLY: Can you believe
Jennifer Brown is president?

REGINA: She's invincible.

What if she's not?

You know, right? That you sleepwalk.

You were up in the loft last night.
You could have broken your neck.

They're after her. Not us.

I just betrayed her
because you convinced me.

No, "convinced" is strong.

(GRUNTING)

- Did she see you?
- No. No.

No, she didn't see me.

I'm not gonna tell you how
to run your f*cking lab.

Until we get to San Francisco,
this is my show.

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

(GAS CAP UNSCREWING)

(SOFT CLATTERING)

(SPITTING)

- (AMPERSAND CHITTERS)
- What?

Ah... You think we should...

I don't know... make
some sort of gesture,

like an olive branch?

Like what? Flowers?

Just say we're sorry, maybe?

I'm not sorry.

- Yeah, of course you're not.
- (AMPERSAND CHITTERS)

Hey, buddy.

She lied to us, almost got us k*lled.

(SHUSHES, CLEARS THROAT)

- Got some extra fuel.
- Yeah,

I saw that. That's, um, that was smart.

Good thinking.

Empty the camper.
You two can ride in back.

Yup. I think that did it.

I don't think she's angry anymore.

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

Yeah, they know it's a performance,

so even if it's real,
they can't buy in though

- unless the stakes are relatable.
- Like what?

- Like buried alive?
- Uh-huh?

Only really works if there's
something else in the box.

- Yeah, like what?
- Like, uh, I don't know, a scorpion.

Or, like, a big-ass spider.

Life and death, it's too
theoretical, and besides,

people don't think you're gonna
risk death for a magic show.

(SIGHS) They don't know
what an idiot you are.

But if the trick goes wrong... hey.

But if the trick goes wrong

and all my fingernails are ripped out...

- Jesus.
- Exactly.

That is something that a
regular person can imagine.

Okay.

Have you ever tied a knot before?

You will not be able to get out of this.

It's important that you believe that.

- Hey, buddy. Yeah.

How long were you unconscious?

Couple of hours.

Woke up, and our boots were gone.

VILSON: We tracked her from Boston.

The soldiers at Harvard said that
she was looking for a scientist.

Dr. Allison Mann.

Some kind of geneticist.

- You get a visual on Dr. Mann?
- No.

Uh, but...

What?

I didn't see the doctor,

but the third person in the church,

it was a man. I saw him.

- A man?
- Burgin was protecting him.

- How close were you?
- Close enough.

- Ten feet, maybe less?
- Well, let's all acknowledge

there are men out there.

I don't think he was transgender, ma'am.

You're telling me you can verify
someone's chromosomes from ten feet?

No, but why else would Agent Burgin
be looking for a geneticist?

- If she's protecting an asset...
- A survivor.

Oh, here we go.

Well, it would explain a
few things, wouldn't it?

Did you see him? This survivor?

I'm asking them.

- No, ma'am.
- No.

With all due respect, Captain,
you were tranquilized.

Your memory isn't exactly reliable.

I know what I saw.

Did you notice the crowds outside?

- Yes, ma'am.
- The White House is gone.

Those people doused one of
our guards with gasoline,

tried to light her on fire.

They will jump at anything
that has a whiff of conspiracy.

So you'd better be sure.

I'm sure as I can be.

Caucasian, brown hair,
about six feet tall.

Tell them the rest.

"The rest"?

There was an animal with
him, on his shoulder.

- Oh.
- I know how it sounds.

I think we're done here, Peggy.

- What kind of animal?
- (SCOFFS) It matters?

A monkey, ma'am.

Thank you, Captain.

(QUIETLY): f*ck.

Get them reassigned.

I don't want them spreading
that story in this building.

- Yes, ma'am.
- Make it happen today.

We're ready for you now,
Madam President.

All right. Thank you,
Abby, lead the way.

Testing, one, two, three.

Testing. Testing, one, two, three.

throw her on a... on a Humvee

Lincoln on a whistle-stop tour?

HAWKEYE (ON TV): No,
I'd rather be a live chicken.

In the Pentagon.

This is my favorite sweater.

- Leave Jennifer Brown alone, okay?
- (SIGHS)

She's a decent human being.

She called Daddy a sexist

- to score some cheap political points.
- (TV VOLUME INCREASES)

And now she's sitting in his chair...

HAWKEYE (ON TV): I was hoping
I'd make it to Thursday.

... while you sit here
watching your th episode

- of MASH.
- (TV TURNS OFF)

Well, I'm not the queen
of England, Kimberly.

No one cares what I have to say.

That's because you
haven't said anything.

- I mean, at least Regina is out there...
- (MARLA SCOFFS)

Regina's a nutjob.

And your father would
be the first to say so.

Daddy chose her.

She was loyal to him, which
means she's loyal to us.

(CRUNCHING)

These are all ruined.

A-Are you gonna use all those pillows?

You're not giving that girl my pillows.

Her name is Christine
and she's pregnant.

She needs friends.

- Oh...

- Your dad loved this one.
- You've got a good sense of humor,

- but a lousy sense of timing.
- Come here.

- Fire that w*apon.

Fire it? I don't even
like looking at it.

Okay, you know what? That's it. Get up.

Get up! We're all suffering.

Suffering? Really?

Well, if you shed even half a tear,

your boys would have to split it.

POTTER (ON TV): Fire the g*n, Hawkeye.

HAWKEYE: Look, Colonel...

I'm gonna see them again.

(SCOFFS) Yeah. When you're dead.

He was unconscious.

I don't know, last time
I told you the plan,

you f*cked off in the

You know, I'm a little bit smart.

- I might be able to contribute.
- No, no.

I'll get us out of here,
we'll go find Yorick. Just...

sh*t... stop talking.

No, no, you're right. You got this.

Long as there aren't any trees
between here and California,

we should be good.

The buses are available now

to take you to the Safe Settlement Zone

just outside the city.

There's hot food, showers,
medical attention.

Of course, you have every right to stay,

protest, peaceably assemble.

But we want you to be safe.

Take advantage of access
to proper shelter and care.

The doctors didn't have time for her.

Um, I woke up in triage.

But I could walk so...

I made it back to our street,

I couldn't see him like that.

You must be very hungry.

I'll have Christine bring
up some food, okay?

I can't believe you're the president.

Yeah. Yeah, don't get me started.

REGINA: It's a dead end.

There's no proof that
Burgin k*lled the pilots,

much less that it was
ordered by the president.

That doesn't mean it didn't happen.

- What did the soldiers say?

- Was there anyone with her?
- Two others.

- MARLA: Kimberly.
- Hero?

They were hit with tranquilizers.

Their stories were all over the place.

But no, I mean, it didn't sound like it.

Hero is, um, kind of short,

doesn't really brush her hair.

whatever it takes to stay out.

So, you're saying that if we get out,

there might be hundreds of
convicts waiting for us?

I would be worried, but now

we put together a list of
about research scientists

who might be able to
help out. Brilliant.

Geniuses, all of them.

quantify genius, but...

You weren't on that list.

- What?
- Disqualified.

- Yeah.

Something about being a
traitor to your country.

This is about the Saudis?

See, this is why I don't
trust the government.

Do you have any idea how
difficult it is to get funding?

The point is, stop being
a pain in my ass.

There are plenty of other
scientists who can help.

Oh, well, they aren't me.

I may not be able to quantify genius,

but I can quantify being a p*ssy, and...

They wanted to know who you guys were.

They wanted to know about Amp.

They gave me toast.

- A lot. Dozens. I don't know.

She's barely left this room.

I mean, she told me about him,
and I didn't believe her.

No one else out there is going to.

Okay, then we confront Jennifer alone.

No, no, no. She's not gonna blink.

- We need proof.

What more do you want?

I wish I still had my show.

Well, you don't.

We need real allies, not tinfoil hats.

We-we need members of her
own party, the-the m*llitary.

Oh, well, that shouldn't be hard.

Jennifer's son is alive,

and everybody else watched
their kids choke to death

on their own insides.

Kim, there's an angry mob out there
looking for someone to blame.

We don't just want the presidency.

We want him.

Yorick Brown.

He is the key to putting the
world back together again.

He is the only thing that matters now.

But you said he was a beta
boy who did magic tricks.

God chose him!

It is not up to us to question that.

We have to bring him here.

And then we have to use
him to bring back men!

REGINA: Right. What good is an
Alaskan wilderness full of oil

if you don't sink a couple of wells?

KIMBERLY: We're gonna get proof.

And then we're gonna back
her up against a wall.

And she's gonna be forced to resign,

and then she's gonna lead us to him.

That's the only way.
And then all this pain

and suffering will finally be over.

And we'll be a nation of mothers again.

- I'll drive you out of town.

You can walk from there.
It's a hike, but it's your call.

There's a doctor here.

No, we'll stay.

Of course we'll stay. Thank you.

AGENT : Why help us?

- What's in it for you?
- I don't know,

maybe hell isn't other people.

The doc will check on
you in the morning.

Can you walk?

(GRUNTS)

Oh, oh, hey, hey, hey, hey.

- Don't touch me.
- Fine, fine.

(MUFFLED): Out of nowhere,
you just, just go and run out

into the w*r Room?

I mean, do you know what
people are saying about you?

I have to get out of here.

(KIMBERLY SCOFFS)

You have to control yourself.

You think you're the only one?

I want to scream every time I see her.

Kimmy.

Kimmy, let's go home.

What?

We'll pick the apples off Daddy's trees.

We'll live off the land.
We'll be pioneer women.

No, Mama, Lynchburg?

No, it's gone.

The house, Daddy's trees...
all of it, it's gone.

The-the dam burst.

No one was there to fix it.

The whole town is under debris and mud.

I thought someone told you.

Who would tell me?

(KIMBERLY STAMMERS)

I'm sorry, I thought you knew.

Listen. Listen to me, okay?

We have work to do. There's hope now.

Yorick Brown.

God has a plan for him, for all of us.

There is no God, Kimmy.

- What more proof do you need?
- You're wrong.

I-I promise you're wrong.

I just want to go home.

Hey.

You are home.

(WHIMPERS)

(SNIFFLES)

Pray with me. Pray with me, okay?

Pray with me.

Jesus Christ, please send us strength.

Help us understand why you have
brought us here in your name.

Keep your son Yorick safe.

May he walk the earth in
steps of purpose and grace.

Amen.

(WATER RUNNING, STOPS)

Was I in there for too long?

I haven't had a real shower in...

Of course not. I'll have Christine
bring up some clean clothes.

The first lady...

Yeah.

She's been through an awful lot.

Kimberly's three boys were
with her that morning and...

they were all in bed together
watching a movie, so...

I thought I'd sleep out here.

Give you the bed.

Oh.

No. I can't stay.

- Oh, I thought...
- I just wanted to see you,

and talk to somebody else who loved him.

Well, if you don't want to
sleep here, there's a dorm...

No, you had to make rules.

You can't let everybody in.

And I'm not actually your...

Well, you may as well be.

I just wanted you to
know that I loved him.

Where will you go?

Oh, um, I'm staying with friends.

Sydney. You remember her?

I don't know actually
if you ever met her,

but her mom has a house on Lake Anna,

and they've got well water, so...

it's pretty nice, all things considered.

(SIGHS)

You know, your jacket
lining is thinning.

I thought you might like this one.

It's much warmer.

Oh, no, I can't take that.

- I hardly wear it. It's yours.
- I can't wear this out there.

Oh.

Of course.

Well, if you ever need anything,

you know where to find me and...

I'm not going anywhere.

- Thanks.
- Mm.

There you go. Nice and easy.

- You want this up? Up a little bit?
- Yeah.

Here. Okay, just one second.

You got it.

(AGENT SIGHS)

- Is that okay?
- Uh-huh.

Okay.

Hey. Do me a favor.

Yeah. Yeah, sure.

Keep your mouth shut.

Don't trust anybody.

Okay.

Especially that girl.

- What girl?
- You know what girl.

Just... just rest, okay?

You won't have to do this again.

You won't have to take
care of me like this again,

- I promise.
- Hey.

It's okay.

I know.

(CRICKETS CHIRPING)

(LIVELY CHATTER IN DISTANCE)

Yeah, so, I was hoping I could get

- some more of that stuff.
- APRIL: Yeah, yeah, cool.

You coming?

Oh, my God, she's
gotten so good at that.

- Right? I know.
- Yeah, she's been practicing forever.

(CHUCKLES) Although, you know what,

I think, I think I'm gonna join her...

APRIL: Oh, no! Oh, my God...

So, um, you really an escape artist?

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Couldn't get out of that cell.

I think with enough
time, maybe, I, um...

But no, no, not really.
That's a fricking prison cell.

- (LAUGHS)
- Um...

- Aw, it's okay.
- No, it's, uh...

Yeah, it's like, um,
it's like Houdini stuff...

so handcuffs and straitjackets

- and water tanks...
- Oh, is there money in that?

Uh, not so far.

(CHUCKLES)

What's with the monkey?

He's my best friend.

This is ama... Who-who made this?

Uh, Janis made it. She's a good cook.

She's good at a lot of things, actually.

YORICK: Mm.

Okay. Good to know.

That's, uh... we'll, um... (SCOFFS)

I will stay out of the way.

Should've let 'em bleed out
on the side of the road.

JANIS: Very charitable, Dom.

You're a real f*cking ray of sunshine.

Somebody's chasing them.

And if they are,
they're looking for him.

Yeah? Think they might
have a few questions

when they get here?
"What happened to the guards?

Where are all the people
that used to live here?"

We tell them the truth.

Yeah? When's the f*cking
truth worked out for you?

sh*t, Janis, now you
sound f*cking stupid.

What did you say to me, little girl?
