02x04 - Day 42 / 15

Post by bunniefuu »

[FATIN] Forty, forty-one, forty-two.

Forty-two days on this dumb-f*ck rock.

[DOT] You've really
commandeered that journal, hmm?

Yeah, for some truly masochistic reason,

I like to think about what I'd
be doing at any given moment,

like if none of this had happened.

And what would you be doing right now?

Well, I'd probably be at the med-spa,

getting my pubes lasered off.

It was my pre-Majorca ritual.

My family always goes this week.

[DOT] What week even is it?

You know, time here
is like a flat circle.

I have no idea.

[FATIN] Today is July th.

Holy sh*t.

What's up?

Oh, it's my birthday today, you know?

[BLOWS RASPBERRY] Big - .

[FORCED LAUGHTER]

[LIGHT MUSIC]

No.

No, Fatin. You can't
tell the others, please?

Okay, okay, okay. Hear me out.

I can, and I will.

[DOT] Fatin, I don't do birthdays.

They're stupid,

and self-centered, and...

"Congrats to me, at me.

I slid out of a vag.

Time to throw myself a friend parade."

You put this to bed now.

Guess what, b*tches?

Ice the booze... and get horny.

It's Dorothy's m*therf*cking birthday.

[LIVELY MUSIC]

♪ ♪

How much longer do I have to do this?

[FABER] Well, that
kind of depends on you.

But I've been down
there with him for hours

and I can't tell if I'm getting, like,

warm, cold, mild, or
just, like, nowhere.

I've told you everything I can.

Something happened days in,

and none of the boys will talk about it.

What's this sudden hesitation about?

What, are you worried
that we won't hold up

our end of the bargain?

Yeah, there's that.

It's also the whole
"putting on an act" thing.

We're not all as good at it as you are.

[YOUNG] You're not buying that, are you?

'Cause I think she puts
on a pretty good show.

I can't pretend I didn't fall

for her little panic att*ck number.

[GRETCHEN] Not your finest hour.

But if she can find out
what tore the boys apart,

we'll call it a wash.

Wow, you're still harboring
some pretty serious hostility

toward her.

Doesn't feel good getting
worked over like that.

Oh, much better to be on this side

of the manipulation game, isn't it?

[FABER] You know what
I think you might need?

A little good faith gesture on our part.

Transcripts from the several calls

that Jeff made to you,
to one of your teachers,

even to the authorities,

inquiring about your welfare.

They're real?

He did try for you, Leah.

So tenaciously, in fact,

that it's become a bit
of a problem for us.

You wouldn't hurt him.

We'll make good if you do.

You come through for us on this

and we can and will let you call him.

[APPREHENSIVE MUSIC]

♪ ♪

Whoa. What's wrong? Are you okay?

Shh, I thought I heard voices.

- Did someone follow you?
- [LEAH] Shh.

Okay. I don't think this,
what we're doing here,

I don't know if it's gonna work.

Sounds like a breakup speech.

Please don't joke. It's
not working fast enough.

Time is, like, slipping by

and every second, I feel
closer to getting caught.

Do you want to sit
and breathe for a sec?

We don't have much longer.
We have to make a move.

[RAF] Leah.

Have some.

It's not my favorite flavor.

[SMALL LAUGH]

It's the only one that
comes in a green bottle.

Did you know that?

My family, we used
to lug all our bottles

to the recycling place for cash.

The green bottles aren't worth as much,

so my mom would let me keep these ones.

I'd stack 'em in my
bedroom on the west wall,

and when the sun set
and the light hit it,

looked like jewels.

We need to get home.

Yeah, I know.

I know.

[EXHALES]

So this move we need to make...

how's it start?

With more of us.

We find some of the
others, bring them in.

And I know the girls, and I
know who to start with, but...

But I need to know your people now.

Their strengths, their weaknesses.

Who we can trust.

There was this time...

this day, actually...

where we really learned
a lot about each other.

It was the day we decided to...

[SCOTTY] Surround that big
f*cking cat on all sides,

armed with the baddest
spears we can make,

then basically just
s*ab the sh*t out of it.

s*ab, s*ab, s*ab!

Ha ha. Dead jaguar.

[KIRIN] This is the
play you want us to run?

I don't even know what
I'm looking at here.

[JOSH] Looks like a human cell,

like how we had to draw it in biology?

Is that a ribosome right there?

That's obviously the jag!

Bo, is that not obviously the jag?

I wouldn't say "obviously."

[KIRIN] Can't just run
up and s*ab it, dawg.

This isn't the hood.

"The hood"?

Bitch, you don't know my life.

For all you know, I could
live in one of those red brick,

good trick-or-treating-type communities.

He doesn't.

[SCOTTY] Okay. Well, if my idea sucks,

let's see you come up
with one on your own.

Or would that make your
jalopy-ass brain overheat,

you f*cking dumb-dumb?

The f*ck did you just call me?

You heard me, big bird-ass bitch.

[SETH] Whoa, guys, you guys. Chill.

Everyone's got a point here, right?

Kirin's right, a direct att*ck

would probably be a su1c1de mission.

But, Scotty, you're definitely
onto something with the spears.

Easily our best bet, weapons-wise.

Badges, what do you think?

[HENRY] Well, whatever we do,
it's got to be from a distance.

We don't have any long-range firearms.

- Guess that means a trap.
- [SETH] Okay.

I don't know if what I'm imagining is,

like, a legit thing or just
some Indiana Jones bullshit,

but what if we, like, make a thatch trap

that the jag could, like, fall through?

Oh, hell yeah, right onto
some sharp-ass spears.

[SETH] Yes. Yes. Why not?

[HENRY] Proper term is a pit-fall trap,

but, yes, theoretically,
that could do the job.

[SETH] Nice, nice, nice.

So now all we need is a pit big enough.

Could we dig one?

[RAF] What if we cleared out the bunker?

Yes! f*ck yes! We spike the bunker.

[IVAN] Okay. I'm new here.

But cats are brilliant, right?

Like, I know she's not just
gonna sashay over and fall in.

[BO] Maybe we can bait it.

You know, like, with the turkey jerky.

Bo, yes! f*cking k*ller.

Okay. Will the jerky be enough?

[SCOTTY] I mean, we could throw
some of that SPAM in there too,

you know, make like a
shitty meat soufflé.

Holy sh*t. Did we just do this?

Did we just figure this thing out?

'Cause I feel like we figured
this f*cking thing out!

Guys, bring it in.

Yeah. I know it's super cheesy,

but humor me, please.

"k*ll a m*therf*cking jag," on three.

- One, two...
- [ALL] k*ll a m*therf*cking jag!

[CHEERS]

[SETH] All right.

We need spear makers, a cleared bunker,

and wood for the spears.

[KIRIN] I'm on chop duty.

Who'd have thought
that Second City improv

would come in clutch
on a deserted island?

Big famous improv school?

They teach you how to
collab, say "Yes, and?"

Okay, no. Forget it, noob.

Oh, sh*t, dude.

What the f*ck?

Oh, sh*t, dude, you had a
fire ant on you. Oh, my God.

Oh, sh*t. You got one too!

Oh, f*ck you. f*ck you.

You got one too. Oh,
f*ck. You got one too.

- Oh, no.
- [JOSH LAUGHS]

Spillz. Can you and I team
up, like, for one of the tasks?

Um, oh, sh*t. I would love to,

but I got to go with Kirin
to collect some raw materials.

Uh, do y...

do you think that you
could do me a solid

and head to the bunker with Raf?

Yeah, yeah. Of course.

Team Saint J. [CHUCKLES]

I'm just gonna go take my
meds, then we can skedaddle.

Hey, you know that I would go with you.

It's just that, this isn't gonna work

unless me and Jock Itch
get on the same page.

- No, I get it. All good.
- Yeah.

An actual -year-old...
trapped in teenage form.

[FATIN] She is today, people.

Which means she can legally vote,

she can buy p*rn, and she is officially

no longer of sexual
interest to Jeffrey Galanis.

[DOT] Oh, my God. Why?

[MARTHA] It makes me
a little sad, actually,

'cause I'm sure Dot would
rather spend her birthday

at, like, a laser tag
place or hibachi restaurant

or literally anywhere else.

[FATIN] But instead, she's
hanging out with our sorry asses

and this bottle of brut from... Idaho.

Jesus, Barbara, have some self-respect.

We have to go big.

We have to go big.

Hmm?

I said, "That's why we have to go big."

All right. I'm talking
about a party here, y'all,

and not some sad little
round of applause, okay?

I'm talking a deluxe full-scale
absolute birthday blow-out.

Honestly, the way I want it to play out,

we won't even need the champagne.

- Yes, we will.
- Because we're gonna get

- so freaking trashed on fun...
- And champagne.

[SHELBY] That it's gonna
feel just like home, okay?

Not just for the birthday
girl, but for all of us.

All right. Time to mobilize.

- Sorry.
- Oh, oh.

I was sort of standing there, but...

Oh, my God. This is exciting!

- Are you excited?
- Oh, my God. Yeah.

And I feel like you're giving me

some major divorced-dad-energy vibes,

like you're taking us to Six Flags

because you feel guilty for missing out

on the last five years of our lives.

I didn't miss anything.

Okay. So, listen. I'm thinking
we do a surprise beach party.

Does Dot even like surprises?

She hates surprises, end quote.

Okay. Let's stick with
a surprise, all right?

Today's about Dotty, okay?

We should give her exactly
what she'll learn to love.

All right. See, all right,
all right, all right.

It is all coming
together in my head now.

Moonlight, bonfire, maybe
even a little luau vibe.

Cultural appropriation.
I'm not even mad at it.

- Fatin, what's the date?
- [FATIN] July th.

Sweet baby, Jesus. Eighteen on the th.

We have a golden birthday.
Okay. Okay, okay, okay, okay.

First things first, we gotta
keep her busy till go-time.

Fatin, Leah, you're on
Dot-distraction duty.

But, how do we even do that?

I delegate, you figure it out.

Okay. Rachel, Martha,
Babe. On your feet.

Let's prep it here, and then
we'll set it up on the beach.

- What have you done?
- [FATIN] I think I've unleashed

some sort of party coke fiend.

Okay, I know he's off-theme,

but if you have a piñata, you use him.

Am I right?

[SETH] Good length. Good reach.

What do we think?

Fine.

Man, I feel like I'm waiting
tables at Bandera again.

It's a restaurant in Chicago.

[KIRIN] You can keep trying, dude,

but I see straight through you.

[SETH] Yeah, y-you got me.

I-I never waited tables.
I was only a busboy.

Man, that's crazy perceptive.
How did you know that...

[KIRIN] Not talking about that, dude.

I'm talking about your game here.

How you're working the group,

trying to be everyone's
favorite camp counselor.

Oh, that.

No. Y-you're right,
Kirin. I'm an evil genius.

And that's my diabolical
plot, to be nice to people.

Okay, maybe I want people to like me.

Maybe that's not a maybe.

Okay, I definitely
want people to like me.

But that's not something
I'm, like, proud of.

But... look at me.

I mean, I-I'm out here making
jokes, tap dancing for you,

but you say and do
whatever the f*ck you want,

not a single f*ck given.

I'm not built like that.

And that's not some
bullshit I'm just saying

to get you to like me. That's the...

that's the truth.

Whatever, dude.

Enough.

What's wrong?

Your meds not working?

Pick those up.

How's it going down there,
by the way? You still drippy?

Stop thinking about my d*ck...

and pick those up, like I said.

I see right through you too.

And the tough-guy thing
isn't gonna work either, dude.

Now what I will say, now
that we cleared the air,

that clap thing aside...

No, I wish that I could just...

[GROANS]

I wish I could just f*ck
random girls like you.

But with me, it's like,

as soon as I zero-in on
someone, she's, like...

the only one that I
see and I'm like all-in.

Oh, ho, ho, ho. You're that guy.

I'm the that-est that guy.

I got so committed last time,

that when my girlfriend
broke up with me,

I couldn't break up with the cat.

The puss that good, huh?

Oh... [LAUGHS] yeah.
Really, really great.

But I meant I literally
took her cat, though.

Her parents called it kidnapping.

I called it borrowing.

[KIRIN CHUCKLES] Creepshow.

It's actually why I'm
here, to "get perspective

and stop being so
codependent," or whatever.

Listen, bro,

you gotta play the field instead.

It's like they say,

"Always bring sand to the beach."

Right, right.

"Bring sand to the beach."
No, it's good advice.

Ha.

How cool is that?

I learned this at circus
camp when I was a kid.

Maybe try and stay on task?

Yeah.

It's crazy that we don't
know each other better.

Like, why aren't you in the Latinx club?

I'm not of the decent, but
they let me sit in to learn.

By the way, which do you prefer?

Hispanic, Latino?

Mexican is fine.

You're saying that I can say it?

You're, like, giving
me a pass right now?

Mexican isn't a slur, Josh.

I know, right?

Like, I always tell my
family not to wear sombreros

on Cinco de Mayo.

They don't get how their appropriation

white-washes the spirit of
anti-colonial resistance.

Really learned a lot in that club there.

[JOSH] I have.

And that is why I only
celebrate Día de los Muertos,

good ol' Mexican Halloween.

[LEAH LAUGHS] Mexican Halloween?

sacred, centuries-old tradition

He had gotten so much right.

Like, I was actually
starting to root for him.

Me too.

Still am, actually.

But why didn't you stop him?

Explain to him where he had gone wrong?

It's his problem, not mine.

No, yeah. I know.

I wasn't trying to say that
it was your responsibility.

I don't know.

I've learned that if you
let people talk like that,

they end up revealing

So petite?

So absolutely chode-sized?

[SCOTTY] That was a good one. Yeah, no.

All I'm saying is, you know,

we got to stay on task to get sh*t done.

So, like, maybe quit
prancing around and man up?

Wow. I cannot believe this
bullshit followed me here.

You know, you do
understand that we share

a common enemy, right?

But because of gender policers like you

who don't like my crop tops or
my so-called broken wrists...

[HENRY] I'm not taking sides here.

But for the sake of the trap, Ivan,

your spear has to be a
little more... functional.

Exactly! Thanks for taking my side, man.

[IVAN] I'll have you know,
my spear is very functional.

But more importantly, it's a statement.

[SCOTTY] Jesus f*cking Christ.

The jag doesn't care
about your statement.

It's trying to k*ll us.

A-and it's gonna take some
real men to k*ll it first.

Tell me, Scotty. What
makes you a real man?

A lot of sh*t. I like
to stand when I piss.

I like a big breakfast.

And I do everything I can to hustle hard

and save up money to
support my f*cking family.

Oh. You know what? I
can't tell if that's sweet,

or just a clichéd rap bar.

I thought we could use it as
a crossbeam or, like, seating.

Can't let you do that, pal.

Yeah. Camp's a no-go zone.

Pal? What are you talking about?

They're doing Tai Chi. Capoeira.

Yeah, one of those martial arts.

It's also very gentle.

But, yeah. Anyways, it's very sacred

and we can't interrupt.

- Is she okay?
- [FATIN] Oh, yeah.

Just Leah.

Honestly, though, do you
mind coming back for the log

and helping us snare some birds?

Martha's not feeling up for the hunt.

What's wrong with her? Is she okay?

I mean, I don't want to be indiscreet,

but it is spelled D-I-A-H-H, or...

She's just fine. Just a stomachache.

It's... [FART NOISE]

Man, that's tough.

[DOT] Listen, um...

[SMALL LAUGH] With
what I'm about to say,

just know that the bar
is really low, but...

This is the best birthday
that I've ever had.

[MARTHA LAUGHS]

My best birthday was two years ago,

and Toni snuck us into a casino.

[TONI] Yeah. Oh, yeah.

Marty over here wanted to
go see those nerdy magicians.

[MARTHA] It was Penn and Teller,

and they're illusionists.

[TONI] Okay, I was the illusionist,

sliding us past that assh*le bouncer.

[SHELBY] Well, as
memorable as that sounds,

my sweet had you b*at.

It was a "Great Gatsby" theme.

And we actually rented like an old car.

And the best part was
when my dad surprised me

with a birthday video
from none other than...

Joel Scott Osteen.

I... [LAUGHS]

What? That was... It
was good. I loved it.

[LAUGHTER]

This just, like, kind of reminds me...

That I only have one birthday
to celebrate from now on.

Not two.

So f*ck all your birthdays.

[SOMBER MUSIC]

I got this.

- Dot, no.
- [DOT] What?

[SHELBY] Maybe you should,
like, just act your age for once.

Well, I'm actually an adult now, so...

[LEAH] Okay. Then don't act your age.

That's our real gift to you.

You're retired, honey,
just like Barbara.

Let me take this one, all right?

[HENRY] This isn't gonna work.

Man, why would you say
that? You pitched the trap.

[SETH] Yeah, Hen, don't relapse on me.

[HENRY] I'm not saying we're gonna die.

I just think we'll have to pivot.

Statistically speaking,
first plans never work.

Have you ever seen the
early drafts of "Bugs Bunny,"

as sketched by the original artist?

[KIRIN] Oh, yeah.

Yes, I have.

You have?

No, shithead. I was f*cking with you.

Why would I have seen that?

Anyway, they're horrifying.

Bugs looks like a DMT hallucination.

Hey, I just want to say, you know,

you really held it down at the bunker.

[IVAN] Hmm, while you ran.

- How virile of you.
- I had to.

One of us always dies in that scenario.

Wasn't gonna be me.

[CHUCKLING]

Look, I know it's your
style, but you can't

just joke your way back to
congeniality with me, okay?

I need, like, a reckoning.

Look, man, I was
getting there, all right?

It's... it's my bad about earlier,

all that sh*t I said.

I was out of line.

You know, I don't even...

I don't know where it comes from

or, like, why I feel
like that, but... sorry.

We're cool.

[SCOTTY] Oh. Oh!

- Okay. Hey.
- Okay, okay.

Wakanda forever, my brother.

[KIRIN] I am the Jag Slayer!

I am gladiator!

[IVAN] Oh, no.

I'm not letting him steal
all the shine for this.

- Go get it.

[BO] Yeah, yeah, lift him.

[KIRIN] I said...

Big boy, here ya go!

[IVAN] Yes, Warrior O'Connor.

Yes, you may have dealt the final blow,

but what is a knight without his steel?

If not for my weaponry excellence,

what the f*ck then?

Is not the real hero of the hour...

Okay, where is she?

Your spear is in there.

It was pretty gross.

[IVAN] Excalibur d*ed for us.

She made the ultimate sacrifice!

We put her through...

You should be up on some shoulders,

getting the Gatorade bath.

Oh, nah.

- [IVAN] We tossed her in.
- [GROWLS]

[RAF] Come on. You basically
put this whole thing together.

"Yes, and" style.

Hey.

- This...

This is all you, man.

No, no.

[RAF] Hey, while we're
spreading the glory around,

give it up to the guy
who kind of got us going.

The man with a plan,
Seth "Spillz" Novak.

- [CHEERS]
- [RAF] Yes!

[WHOOPING]

[JOSH] Speech, speech!

No, no, no.

No... okay, okay.

I might have a tight five in me. Uh...

How is everybody doing tonight?

- [CHEERS]
- [JOSH] We are good!

[SETH] Hey, is anyone here on a date?

How about any newlyweds in the
audience, recently married? No? Okay.

And castaways?

Anyone here stranded on
a deserted f*cking island?

- [CHEERS]
- [RAF] Yes!

[IVAN] All of us!

[SETH] You know, I... I
vividly remember the day

that I met each of you.

Not that there's anything
particularly special

about any of you, but because
who could possibly forget

a catastrophic f*cking plane crash?

No, but seriously, you...

you all left big
impressions on me that day.

I remember Scotty and Bo,

so clearly each other's ride-or-die.

I bet you didn't think
that "die" would be

a literal possibility, huh?

- No. No, I didn't.
- [SETH] No? Okay.

I remember Ivan with his sick loafers.

And, look, I know that
they're worse for wear,

but maybe I can borrow 'em one day.

- We'll talk.
- [SETH] We will. We'll talk.

Josh, who after, like,
half an hour of knowing him,

had already offered me,
like, six homeopathic remedies

and a Schedule II drug.

Nice.

And I don't remember Henry
'cause I don't have to.

- [HOWLS]
- [SETH] Okay?

And Kirin, who I first wrote off

as a juicehead assh*le.

Seriously, man, when are you
gonna change my mind on that?

- [LAUGHTER]
- Oh!

Spillz, you little piss-ant. f*ck you.

I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
Please don't hurt me.

Please, sit down.

No, seriously,

without your "act first,
think later" attitude,

I mean, you've helped
us more than once, man.

So, respect.

And then, there's Raf.

You know, there's no joke
here, man, there's no punchline.

We stared down some dark
sh*t together that first day,

and... I don't know if
it's man-of-few-words thing,

but you have this calm about
you that saved my sanity.

[CLEARS THROAT]

f*ck. We were strangers.

We were strangers who came together.

And, what did we f*cking do?!

We were strangers who came together

and we k*lled a m*therf*cking jag!

[CHEERING]

[SCREAMING]

[INDISTINCT SHOUTING]

Nice sh*t, bruh.

- Whoo!
- Oh!

[LAUGHTER]

[KIRIN] Nuclear pantsing, dawg!

[LAUGHTER]

[KIRIN] Nuclear pantsing!

What the f*ck, man?

[KIRIN] Oh... oh, wait...

Aw, boo!

- [BOOING]
- [JOSH] Come back!

Aw, come on, fuckers. Let's drink!

Whoo!

It won't go away.

The pain?

I understand.

My best friend...

k*lled herself last year.

I know that blame is hard
to put on one person...

But I deserve a lot of it.

I kissed her.

But when her parents found out,

I told them it was the other way around.

Got everyone to believe
that she was wrong, sick.

I got her believing it too.

The guilt.

The shame I felt.

Sometimes I even
wanted to... follow her.

What was her name?

Becca.

And how did you, like, pull
yourself up and out of that?

Dear Lord, you are my
shield, my defender.

You're my healing, my provider.

You're my peace.

You're my joy, my
wisdom, and my strength.

You are the glory and the one
who will lift my head high.

It was my faith.

And just holding on to those words:

"Dear Lord, you are my shield,
my defender," the whole thing.

Just over and over again, like a mantra.

Just sort of made me feel steady.

Until one day, I actually was.

Dear Lord.

- You are my shield.
- You are my shield.

- [SHELBY] My defender.
- My defender.

- You're my peace.
- [RACHEL] You're my peace.

- You're my joy.
- You're my joy.

[SHELBY] My wisdom and my strength.

My wisdom and my strength.

- [SHELBY] You are the glory.
- You are the glory.

And the one that will lift my head high.

And the one that will lift my head high.

Amen.

Amen.

[EXCITED CHATTER]

[JOSH] There he is!

Oh.

I was worried about you, man.

Bro, you have just got to...

you just got to, like,
not even let it get to you

'cause that is how they win.

Trust me. Ha. I know
exactly how you feel.

Like, this one time, I
got pantsed by Chloe King

during my sixth grade spelling bee. Ugh!

It was like the exact same thing,

except my underwear stayed up

and I was spelling
"amnesty" at the time.

Oh, and this isn't pantsing,

but one time, my brother
made me lick the toilet seat.

But not the top.

The underside of the seat.

Josh.

Thank you, really.

But I'm good.

Anytime, man.

[CHUCKLES]

Except now,

because bedtime.

[CHUCKLES]

Good night, Joshy. Ha.

Ah.
