[UNEASY MUSIC PLAYING]

It happened over the summer.

I was working at the Orpheum with Chip.

This group of kids from
school came in one night.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

They said that there was a bonfire party

happening later that night

in the woods behind the school

and did I wanna come.

I did.

Uh, sure.

So, I asked Chip to cover for me.

You're sh1tting me.

You want to party with a bunch
of meatheads and their girlfriends?

TABBY: It was...

a good time...

at first.

But then things took a turn.

I didn't think that I had
had that much to drink,

but I, I got dizzy... lightheaded.

I remember thinking
I needed to get home,

so I started walking.

Next thing I knew...

I was... deeper in the woods...

away from everyone else...

on the ground.

Then he...

he was on top of me.

Was it Tyler?

Is that why you were so
mad at him last night?

I thought it might've been,

but I cyber-stalked him,

and... he was on a family
vacation that same weekend,

so it couldn't have been him.

Tabby...

I am so...

so sorry that happened to you.

- Did you tell your mom?
- I couldn't.

I haven't told... anyone until...

right now.

I, um...

who it was either.

And I remember even less... than you do.

I've invited the director

Also, she'll be in class tomorrow

Sorry. My moms were kinda

But the actual dancing,
the purity of that...

I love it.

Can I ask what happened to your back?

An accident?

No. Scoliosis.

I had... corrective
surgery when I was eight.

You were dancing when you were eight?

My mother had me in a tutu
when I was six. [CHUCKLES]

When my first ballet teacher
noticed the curve in my back,

my mom couldn't get me

Joe...

you said you knew Angela Waters.

More than knew her. I
was in love with her.

We didn't date or anything.

But we were fellow misfits...

Tragedy.

Do you know why Angela k*lled herself?

JOE: Angela couldn't
keep up with those girls,

So, this guy, he told us
that Angela Waters' mom

was committed to the Radley
Sanitarium in Rosewood.

Okay.

But are we sure we can trust
a man who lives in a train car?

- Stellar point.
- And just to ask a question,

is there any universe in which...

- creepy train guy is A?
- Absolutely.

Except for the fact
that he didn't try to k*ll us,

but definitely a person of interest.

Anyway... we looked up
the Radley Sanitarium.

A few years ago, it was shut down

and turned into a hotel.

- Mr. England...
- AKA Crazy Joe.

[SIGHS] confirmed what
we've all been suspecting.

That our moms are all connected
to whatever happened to Angela Waters,

which we think is why...

A's targeting us.

Therefore, if we can
figure out what went down

between Angela and our moms

from someone other than
our not forthcoming moms...

It might help us figure out who A is.

So, Tabby and I thought,

what if we skip the rest of the day

and road trip to Rosewood?

- "Thelma and Louise" style.
- To find someone who knew Rose Waters

and can tell us about her.

TABBY: Or, maybe, we hit the jackpot

and actually find Rose Waters.

- I've got my boss's car.
- Oh.

They have a spa. And I have party cash.

Uh-uh. This recruiter
from ABT is here today.

Also, my mom.

And "Swan Lake" is tomorrow night

and you all better be there.

a bowling date with Ash.

Do you wanna be Thelma or Louise?

Good either way. [SIGHS]

But I am not driving
off a cliff for anyone.

Fair.

Mom?

There's a path through this.

Nurse Simmons called the hospital,

and they're willing to hire you back

if you go to rehab for days.

Baby, look at me.

- Mom, that's just not true.

My whole life, I've never known
you not to be on some kind of drug.

It was mine.

Oh, I was just listening
to him go on and on

about how grueling this process will be,

and how the pain will be acute,

but mostly tolerable.

is this what I even want?

Will this...

If I can live with it, why can't you?

What is it with you and appearances?

You think you're building me up,

but really, you're doing the opposite.

Everything I've done has been for you...

to forge you.

Because believe you me,
they will tear you up.

And you need to be
okay with that or not.

Mr. Lamb, why did you keep working here

after the Radley turned into a hotel?

They offered me a job to
help with the transition.

I had a mortgage, needed the money.

All visitors had to sign
in, and that was the book.

According to this,

Rose Waters was visited by... A. Waters?

- Mm-hm.
- But... they're different signatures.

You caught that, huh?

Shades of "Vertigo."

So... multiple people
came to visit Mrs. Waters

and signed in as Angela?

There were five of them.

Five young ladies who... traded off.

Would you remember
what they looked like?

- Mm-hm.
- [CAMERA CLICKS]

That's them.

Figured it was some
kind of community service

they were doin' for high school.

Visit the crazy lady, ya know?

What was she, um, being treated for?

Trauma-induced psychosis,
then schizophrenia.

Did she ever... get out?

No.

She was here until the
asylum was shut down.

Then what happened?

Some of the patients were sent to

the Sisters of Quiet
Mercy over in Riverdale.

Others, like Rose, were...

released, bussed out of town.

We heard a story that Rose Waters

att*cked a bunch of students
at Millwood High School.

MADAME GIRY: Thank you for
coming to see me, Faran.

Are you all right?

Yes.

Just... got some disturbing news.

- But I'm fine.
- Glad to hear it.

Kelly Beasley has dropped
out of "Swan Lake" for...

personal reasons.

So I'd like you to dance Odile.

If you still know the part,

I can arrange to have the costume
altered to cover your back.

I do know the part, Madame Giry.

And I'll dance it.

But...

you don't need to alter my costume.

I'm good.

- Noa, I'm, I'm so sorry.
- [NOA SIGHS]

I feel... terrible.

I shouldn't have said anything.

It doesn't matter, Shawn.

She doesn't wanna get better.

If she did... [SIGHS] she would.

And I can't keep f*cking enabling her.

[SIGHS]

Well, it's official.

There have been more recastings

in this one production
of "Swan Lake" than all of

- "Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark."
- [LAUGHS]

Congratulations.

- You nervous?
- Not even a bit.

But, I need you to do me a favor.

I'm updating my bio for the board...

and I want a new picture to go with it.

Will you take it for me?

Absolutely.

Something doesn't add up.

What doesn't?

While you were taking your bath,
I was looking at pictures we took

of Eddie's logbook, and he
said there were five signatures,

but... by my count...

- there are six.
- W-What do you mean?

I mean, there are six
different A. Waters signatures.

Five belonging to our
moms, according to Eddie.

Oh my god.

But then, who's the sixth person?

So, we have a... mystery
person out there who

visited Angela's mom at the Radley...

- as A. Waters?
- Yes.

And...

Angela, before she d*ed was...

Yeah.

Poor Angela Waters.

[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]

Tabby...

what you told me about,
back at your house...

my story's like that, too.

It happened that same night as...

that f*cked-up party at
Karen's house back in March.

After I took Tyler's phone

and handed Karen over to Kelly...

I grabbed a bottle of vodka

and went to the beach to drink it alone.

And that's basically all I remember

until, um...

I woke up in... pain.

My underwear was... gone

and there was some blood on my dress.

That [CRIES]...

That was the night... I got pregnant.

[EXHALES]

Any... idea who he was?

Mm.

- Come here. Come here.
- [IMOGEN CRYING]

- [EXHALES]
- Shh.

- Imogen?
- Yeah?

Do you think it could've
been the same guy?

Maybe.

I can't believe I'm
gonna say this, but...

I'm ready to get home.

I feel like we're getting closer...

to something, Tabby.

Me too.

And, you know, uh, if
we go straight to school,

we could make Faran's
performance. [CHUCKLES]

Let's do it.

- Ugh. Sorry I'm late.
- All good?

[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

IMOGEN: Wow...

She really went there.

I think it's beautiful.

Same.

Her bio's super intense, though.

Good for Faran. I'm proud of her.

Totally.

Maybe afterwards we can
take her out for pizza,

and you can tell us about
how it went in Rosewood.

Yeah.

Oh, sh*t. We should...

- Oh, yeah, uh, let's get inside.
- Ugh.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

FARAN: Against the wishes of my doctors,

my father, and myself,

my mother chose a surgery
for me I didn't need

in an unrelenting quest for perfection.

Tonight, I dance for all girls

who have been scarred inside and out.

[CAR STARTS]

Uh, hey, Coach?

Noa.

If it's not too late,

I would love to join the track team.

Like... as soon as possible.

How's tomorrow morning? : ?

I'll be there. Thank you.

- Yeah, it was impressive.

- NOA: What'd I miss?
- [GASPS] Nothing.

[AUDIENCE CHATTERING]

Good luck out there.

- You're not supposed to say that.
- Oh, well, how 'bout this?

You look beautiful.

Leave it all on the floor, Bryant.

Leave it all on the floor, Henry.

[CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING]

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]

[ALL CHEERING]

- You guys made it back.
- IMOGEN: Yes!

And thank god because
you were incredible.

No joke. You put the entire cast
of "Center Stage" in the shade.

[LAUGHING]

Oh-ho.

Do you guys wanna get pizza?

Um, Faran?

- Daddy, what's up?
- Grab your things. We gotta go.

- Why? What's wrong?
- Your mom was in an accident.

She's at the hospital right now.
