Look, man, we're gonna go take this back.

- [grunts]

Billy! [Tandy shrieks]

- TYRONE: What did you do to me? - What did I do? What was that? MELISSA: Things must be getting tough because Tandy's gonna run away.

LIAM: If you give me a chance, I'll love you, always.

Tandy, are you okay? All this anger inside of me.

What if I could find the person who caused it? It's not anger, it's poison, coursing through your veins every day.

And when that bottle gets shook up Tyrone! Tyrone! - [g*nsh*t]

- Tyrone! [gasps]

DELGADO: the poison comes out in unexpected ways.

MAN [muffled, echoing]

: Probably have a concussion or something Calm down, all right? I'm not trying - Are you trying to k*ll me? - [ringing fades]

TYRONE: No, why would you ask that? 'Cause you have a g*n in your hand.

Wait.

You're that kid.

From the party.

The graveyard.

The beach.

- You sh*t at me.

- That wasn't meant for you.

Then who was it meant for? You know what? Don't tell me.

TYRONE: Look, I don't even know how to ex One second I was in the city, the next I was here [voice muffles]

in the middle of nowhere, and a car your car was headed [voice unmuffled]

Wait.

What are you doin'? - Getting the hell out of here.

- [engine chugs]

You can't drive.

Who knows what injuries [distant siren wails]

TYRONE: Oh my God.

Is that? - Yeah.

- [engine chugs, engine rumbles]

Don't take this personally, but I hope I never see you again.

[pop song continuing]

[engine sputtering]

[voices chattering]

[woman speaks indistinctly over PA]

[knock on door]

Is, uh, now a bad time, Mr.

Cotton? Detective O'Reilly, right? My uncle works for the Police Foundation.

He told me you're trying to find whoever did this.

Can I ask you some questions about the att*ck? Anything to catch the bad guy.

Guy.

So you saw him? I'm embarrassed to say that I didn't.

Uh, me and my boys had gone out pretty hard, and the whole night's, uh I don't know, kind of fuzzy.

You, uh, you got some cuts on your face.

How'd you get those? Happened when I fell.

They look like fingernail scratches.

Fingernail scratches? We call them "defensive wounds.

" Why were your pants unbuckled? I'm sorry.

What? The paramedics on duty that night, they told me your pants were unbuckled.

Are you serious? [scoffs]

You know what? I should probably get some rest.

I'm in a lot of pain.

We don't want that.

I'll see you soon.

[keys jingling]

[water sloshes]

[snoring softly]

[floorboards creak softly]

[snores, snorts]

[whimpers]

[high-pitched ringing]

[ringing stops]

Tandy, you okay? Yeah.

- I'm fine.

- What are you doing here? What? I mean, credit where credit is due.

You have some nerve coming back here, after that riot act you read me.

Mom, can we please not do this right now? Oh, is now not a good time for you? Sorry to interrupt your busy What? - Mom.

Mom, it's - My God, you're bleeding.

- Again? - It's nothing.

I'm fine.

- What is going on? - Mom.

[knocking on door]

WOMAN: New Orleans Police.

Ms.

Bowen, are you home? [whispering]

What are the police doing here? What have you done? [quietly]

Mom.

[pounding on door]

Ms.

Bowen? What can I do for you, Officer? Detective.

O'Reilly.

I'm looking for your daughter, Tandy? Is she around? I haven't seen her in weeks.

Months, maybe.

- O'REILLY: Are you sure? - MELISSA: Absolutely positive.

Do you mind if I come inside? - You want to come inside? - If you don't mind.

GREG: Warrant.

I'm sorry? You can't come in here without a warrant.

And who's that? It's my lawyer.

GREG: Technically, I'm just representing her in a posthumous wrongful termination, but this is pretty basic lawyer crap.

O'REILLY: I'm not here to arrest your daughter, Ms.

Bowen.

I'm here because I think she's a victim.

MELISSA: Of what? O'REILLY: The best I can tell, she's been mixed up in an as*ault.

I want to protect her, I can promise you that.

But in order for me to do that, I need to talk to her.

MELISSA: Here's the thing about Tandy: If there's any heat on her, she's probably already run away.

O'REILLY: Well, if you happen to see her again, here's my card.

You have a nice morning.

[sighs]

She's gone.

You can come out.

Tandy? [voices chattering]

[bus engines rumbling]

Who knows what injuries [engine chugs]

[distant siren wails]

Oh my God.

Is that? - TANDY: Yeah.

- [engine rumbles]

Don't take this the wrong way, but I hope I never see you again.

[tires screeching]

[siren wailing]

[engine revving]

[siren blaring]

[knock on door]

Hello? Are you in here, Father? So, uh Not sure if you can hear me.

I could just be talkin' to nothin'.

What's happenin' to me? Are you doin' this? Because I don't understand.

And I I can't control it.

And I can't control myself.

You always had the answers.

Knew what to do.

What should I do? Tell me, and and I'll do it.

I miss you so much, Billy.

I'm I'm trying to be like you, but I'm failing.

And and I'm I'm flailing.

And I'm cursed.

- [door opens]

- EVITA: Hi.

Sorry.

I didn't mean to interrupt or anything.

I was just looking for you, and I thought you You know, I'm just gonna stop, before I sound like I was stalking you, which I wasn't.

So It's all right.

How much did you hear? Do you really think you're cursed? I know it sounds stupid.

Not to me.

In fact, there's someone I know who might be able to help.

What are you doing after school? [streetcar bell clangs]

EVITA: There he is! Our last straggler.

We'd almost given up hope.

Welcome, true believers and skeptics alike, to the Damballah Voodoo Tour.

This is Congo Square, one of the birthplaces of New Orleans voodoo.

On Sundays, in the 18th and 19th centuries, this was the only place the enslaved were allowed to congregate.

So they came here to play music and dance and practice sacred voodoo rituals, that protect, guide and cleanse.

Some even remove curses.

Now during its heyday, New Orleans was the dueling capital of the world.

The last duel ever to be held in the city of New Orleans was right here by, famously, the brothers Wilson, in 1793.

It's unknown the exact reason why they drew weapons against each other, but we do know it happened in the middle of a hurricane.

But it's said that when one fired, and the other didn't, sacrificing his life for his brother [snaps fingers]

the hurricane ended in an instant.

[church bells ringing]

The history of St.

Theresa's Church, over yonder, is the history of New Orleans.

It's been destroyed and rebuilt, destroyed and rebuilt.

So you see, there are some places, just like there are some people, that will always stand back up.

And that church is the very church that the most famous of all voodoo priestesses worshiped at.

Now most people are surprised when they learn that Marie Leveau was Catholic.

But, you see, voodoo isn't necessarily its own religion.

That's a common misconception.

Voodoo is, at its core, a diverse collection of religious and cultural traditions that can either stand alone or be added to your faith.

Just as it was for Ms.

Laveau.

You may be wondering why there are so many markings on her tomb.

It's said that, even from beyond the veil, she grants wishes.

Now, can I get a volunteer? You there.

Step on up.

Come on, don't be shy.

First, an "X" is made on the wall of the tomb.

Now, turn around three times.

Take a deep breath.

Make your wish.

And clap your hands once, and only once.

All right, right in here, guys.

Okay.

So this is your, um, family business? [sighs]

It pays that tuition of ours.

It's cool.

Do you believe in it? As much as I believe in the stories we hear in chapel, I suppose.

But the good news is, you don't actually have to believe in it for it to work.

Come on.

There's someone I want you to meet.

Come on.

Auntie? This is the boy I was telling you about.

Tyrone, this is my auntie.

These damn little pirate birds are stealin' my frozen watermelons.

- [Evita laughs]

- Ma'am? Ah.

Heh-heh-heh.

Gotcha.

Aww.

Gotcha.

Bam.

Gotcha.

Don't touch.

Some of those are as old as the city.

Come here, boy, and lemme look at you.

Mm.

I don't know about this one, Evita.

Why not? He doesn't think he deserves help.

What? This [speaking French]

: Notre Père, qui es aux cieux, Que ton nom soit sanctifié [continuing in French]

Que ton règne vienne.

Hm.

The joker.

Both the hopes and the fears position.

Which one is it? Hopes or fears? Some would say they're the same.

What does that mean? You need a bath.

Did I just? It's like a cleansing bath, all right? It's a Voudon tradition.

Cleanse away any evil spirits.

Okay, a bath.

Isn't there something else we could do? AUNTIE: I could hit you over the head, give you a concussion.

Both open up the mind past the conscious, so you can walk in the Land of the Loa.

Clears the spiritual sinuses, so to speak.

I prefer the bath.

Milk, lavender, anise, white yarrow.

What, are we gonna forage into the woods or something? Hm.

There's a place you can go to get all these things.

And where is that? ADINA: It doesn't matter how many leaves you turn over if the other side is oily.

It's about optics, and this commercial is a great opportunity [Tyrone whispers indistinctly]

Right.

But you need real people, who really work at the company and are sympathetic, like, uh, single moms or veterans or nature lovers or What's the name of that scientist? Come on.

So now what? Now you get naked.

[laughs]

Uh, totally naked.

Is this it? EVITA: You gotta relax.

Close your eyes.

They're not closed, are they? Okay, now [inhales]

deep breaths.

Let your thoughts blow through your mind, like fallen leaves on the wind.

[echoes]

: Ma? [echoes]

: Dad? [bus rumbles away]

[ball bouncing]

Hey, do you have any idea what's going on? Where is everybody? - Tyrone, is that you? - Hey.

Hey.

Hey, do you have any idea what's going on? So what? You think you can ball now? Better than you, and I'm half your size.

[laughs]

Let's see what you got.

- What are we spellin'? - Loser.

A word to the wise.

You come at the king, you best not miss.

[whistles]

All right, maybe you got some skills.

DUANE: Yo, Billy.

- What up, man? - Found him.

- Who? - That assh*le that stiffed us.

- Come on, man.

Language.

- Sorry.

We found his car and we're gonna take back our radio.

You comin'? Nah, man.

I'm gonna stay with my brother.

This is for you.

What the hell is going on? Tyrone? Tyrone, can you hear me? TANDY: What is this? What are you doing? Give me my freedom No! - Please don't give 'em a reason - [g*nsh*t]

To spill blood on my sneakers So I just put my hand up - Then they put me in handcuffs -[thumping]

- [siren wailing]

- They just scared - [g*nshots]

- 'cause they don't understand us They try to b*at us down when we try to stand up Oh no, not again.

I didn't even do nothin' - No! No, don't! - America - It won't work! - The beautiful America, the m*rder*r - [siren wailing]

- [thumping]

America, the funeral Oh! America God bless 'Cause they say they for freedom - [siren wailing]

- [gasping]

But I don't believe 'em No! You can't keep doing the same thing, the end will always be the same.

Tyrone, listen to me.

You have to try something else.

America, the beautiful America, the m*rder*r America, the beautiful Oh! America God bless America America, the beautiful America, the m*rder*r America, it's beautiful Oh! America God bless America Hey.

Do you, um you you you know what's goin' on? MISS AINSLEY: Tandy.

Tandy.

This is How did you get this? Found on a junkie DOA earlier today.

Someone claims they found this on a dead drug addict? Not someone.

Me.

Took it off the stiff myself.

During a Vice raid.

Seems your case was just a mugging gone wrong.

Vic's lawyers corroborated the story.

None of that fits the evidence.

So what? The case is closed.

I'm sorry, did you say the case is closed? Check with your L if you don't believe me.

And, O'Reilly That beer, the one you owe me, make sure it's none of that hipster Brooklyn sh*t, all right? [scoffs]

No, but I think I know how I can.
