[Helen] Lennon sent me
Alison's obituary

with a rather nasty note.

[Bruce] Well, can you blame her?

After what you did?

I did what was best
for everyone.

So, why are you here?

Divine resurrection doesn't play
in the real world.

Your real world.

Where they arrest people for it.

I came to get
what Clara left me.

I called your lawyer

and I told her
that I'd send the money

as soon as I sold.

The money means nothing to me.

I need the bible.

- [scoffs] Right.
- The time is coming.

It's my responsibility
to keep the prophecy safe.

Do you know
how ridiculous you sound?

It's not too late to choose.

Your next life
could be so much happier.

Well, I choose reality.

And Lennon?

Does she know she has a choice?

We have an agreement.

Stay the f*ck away from her.

[Alison] You think
Dylan did this?

I never said that.

Cheeto, did you say
that dream catcher boy

pushed me through the window
last night?

Come on, Margot, you've
been saying this whole time

- you thought he was sus.
- You said he was just sensitive.

That's what I thought.
[sighs]

- Until last night.
- Ugh.

Please don't tell me he tried
to show you his salt lick.

I caught him outside my window.

I was legit joking.

Was he actually b*ating
his meatball?

You think
he came to get you first?

I don't know. I mean,
I mean, he-he didn't hurt me,

but when I wouldn't let him in,

he started saying
how he freed Clara

and he knew I was really Alison
and, like,

- all of this other crazy sh*t.
- Wait, stop.

Stop. Rewind.
He thought you were Alison?

- Mm-hmm.
- The girl he loved?

Tried to tell him I wasn't,
but he wouldn't believe me.

And this just happened
out of the blue

- outside your window?
- Yeah.

I mean, obviously,
I'm nothing like her. [chuckles]

[chuckles] Yeah. You're
def not desp and annoying.

No disrespect.

Maybe he just finally lost it.

Why would he come try to merc me

if he thought his one true love
was still alive?

That would, like,
destroy his entire motivation.

Unless he's just a psycho,
like you said.

I am very good at psychology.

But for the first time
in my life,

really hope I'm wrong.

Me too.

- [knock on door]
- [door opens]

I'd like to report a crime.

Do you want to have a seat?

No. Thanks.

I understand
this may sound crazy,

but Alison Grant
did not k*ll herself.

Her sister, Lennon, d*ed,

and Alison stole her identity.

Okay.

Which, according to my research,
is illegal.

- It definitely could be.
- I looked it up.

It's at least...
it's at least fraud.

Do you have any proof
of this fraud?

She f*cking told me.

Sorry.

I mean, Alison informed me

of her deceit last night.

Was this
while you were threatening her

outside of the Grant home?

What?

Bruce called.

He said Lennon didn't want
to get you into trouble,

but he was concerned
about your emotional state.

No. This has nothing to do
with my emotional state.

He has surveillance footage

- of you stalking Lennon on numerous occasions.
- No,

I never f*cking stalked her.
They're lying to cover it up.

Alison k*lled the real Lennon.

I...

I promised I wouldn't tell.

That's what happened.

- We-we k*lled her.
- Okay.

I can see that you're upset,
okay?

If you want to take a seat,
I'll go get you a soda

- or...
- No, I don't want a soda.

W-We k*lled Lennon.

We thought she was driving,
but it was really Alison.

And we hit her, the real Lennon,
after I f*cked her,

and we-and we did ketamine,

and we-we put her body
in the cave.

And you ne...
you need to arrest her.

And you can arrest me, too,
if you want.

- You should probably sit down.
- No, I don't want to sit down!

Listen. Dylan,

I know you've lost
a lot of people you care about,

and you're obviously exhausted,

but you're saying things
that don't really make sense

and could get you
in a lot of trouble.

Also, I'm-I'm gonna call
social services, okay?

Do you want me to call

- your moms?
- No, I don't need you to call my moms!

I need you to do
your f*cking job!

You need to watch
how you speak to me.

Do you have any evidence
of what you're saying?

Anyone who can corroborate
your story?

Th-They're all dead.

E-Except for Margot.

It was
after her graduation party.

She was in the car.

In the car
that Alison was driving

while she was pretending
to be Lennon?

Why the f*ck are you talking
to me like I'm four?

I'm telling you,
more people are gonna die.

How do you know that?

I just do.

[Alison] Hey.

- [door closes]
- [coughs]

God, I make shitty coffee.

Good thing
you have a restaurant next door.

[sighs] Wanted to see
how you were doing.

[sighs]
Not good.

I can't...
I can't believe I told Dylan.

It's okay. We handled it.

You'll just have to be
extra careful for a while.

How's Margot?

We don't need to worry about her
if that's what you're asking.

It's just I...

I just thought Dylan would...

[sighs] I mean,
what the f*ck is wrong with me?

Sometimes people just aren't
who we want them to be.

If it comes up,
you'll say he got confused.

Happens with twins all the time.

Except there's only
one of us now.

♪ ♪

♪ I am afraid...

[Margot] All she ever did
was just hate on everyone here.

[Dylan] We could take her
to the cave.

[Riley] We're just gonna say
she ran away?

No one will find her
if we put her in the cave.

[Margot] It's not
like she had any friends.

What do you think
Alison would want?

[doorbell rings]

Honey? You up for a visitor?

[Lyla] Hey. It'll just take

- a minute.
- Oh. Um, of course.

Um...
[chuckles softly]

Is everything okay?

I just wanted to follow up
on Alison Grant's su1c1de.

Oh. I told you before,

I wasn't really friends
with Alison.

[Lyla] Oh, I-I remember.

We just try to get
as much information as we can

to prevent this kind of thing
from happening in the future.

[Margot] Well...
[sighs]

More education on mental illness
would definitely help.

I agree.

- Can I get you anything to eat or drink?
- [Lyla] I'm okay.

Thanks. Do you remember
anything unusual

about Alison
before she disappeared?

It was your graduation night,
right?

Alison was always
kind of unusual.

In a sad kind of way.

- Yeah, depression will do that to you.
- [Margot] Tea.

I-I've struggled, myself.

With that and anxiety.

Oh, I get it.

So, you didn't notice anything

while you guys were hanging out
after the party?

We never hung out
after the party.

[Mei] The party went late,
remember?

You were there.

Making eyes at Bruce.

Yeah, that's not exactly
how I remember it.

So, you didn't see Alison at all
after she left?

Why would I?

I told you,
I'm friends with Lennon,

not her.

[Mei] That poor family.

I can't imagine losing my child.

Mm.

- [Lyla] Thanks, Mei.
- Let me know

when you're ready to plan
that bachelorette.

[line rings]

[phone vibrating]

Hey, Mei.

[Mei] Bruce. How are you?

Fantastic, as usual.

Um, how's Margot doing?

She's doing great.

In fact, she just had a visit

from your lovely almost-fiancée.

She said she was finishing up
some paperwork about Alison.

I'm sure it's nothing. I just...

just thought
if someone was asking questions

about my daughter... You know?

Yeah, of course, Mei. Thanks.

Well, I thought
you meant "freaking"

like he was a m*rder*r,

- not a narc.
- M-Maybe he's both.

I mean, don't serial K*llers
sometimes go to the police

to, like,
try and get caught to prove

they're, like,
smarter or something?

They usually are smarter.

I mean, the Unabomber
literally went to Harvard.

[Bruce] Looking for a deal?

[Lyla] [chuckles]
I'm just following up.

- Did Lennon get a ticket or something?
- No.

Dylan came to see me
this morning.

- Huh. How's he doing?
- Not very well,

like you said.

He had a pretty crazy story

about how Alison
stole Lennon's identity

after she k*lled her
in a car crash,

and then something
about sex and ketamine.

Wow.

Yeah.

[inhales sharply]
You need to take the Jeep in,

get it inspected or something?

[sighs]
None of it really adds up.

- I had social services reach out to him.
- Well...

[inhales sharply] Maybe I should
give the Hannahs a call, too.

Yeah. That would be a good idea.

While I'm here,
want to get some lunch?

[sighs]
I'm not all that hungry.

"Lunch" was code for f*cking.

Right. Then I am very hungry.

- Yeah. Mm.
- Mm.

[Lyla laughs]

[chimes tinkling]

[sighs]

What are you doing here?

Did you stick your penne into
Lennon's vongole last night?

- She's not Lennon. She's Alison.
- Yeah,

she told me you were
yelling that outside her window.

- Goodbye, Margot.
- No.

Please?

I just need to know

if the used condom I found
in her trash can was yours.

- Why?
- Because if she lied to me

about having sex with you...

I think I might believe you
about her.

She told me who she really was
after she f*cked me.

Come on.

We can talk in here.

[phone ringing]

[ringing stops]

You don't even, like,
pretend this is a real business?

It's social services.
They've been calling all day.

[scoffs]
Well, you def need therapy.

Why the f*ck did you go
to sandpaper p*ssy?

She's the chief of police.

Yeah. Which is why
Bruce is f*cking her.

Don't you watch
nature documentaries?

Fathers will legit k*ll
to save their babies.

Only mothers do that.

The ones
that don't eat their young.

You're so dark.

I thought
Lyla was a good person.

There are no good people.

Just think
about what Lennon did.

I can't f*cking think
about anything else.

Me either.

I think she and Bruce
k*lled everyone.

Not because they knew
about the accident

but because they knew
which twin she was.

No one knew Alison better
than Johnny.

Yeah, a-and Dale
was legit obsessed with Lennon,

so if he made a move
and Alison acted all virgin-y,

he would def know
something was up.

- [chuckles] She's not a virgin.
- I get it.

- I saw your nasty condom.
- Makes sense, but...

What about Riley?

So, the day she got... unalived,

she literally told me
Lennon was acting sus.

Bruce probably got Courtney
just in case.

I'm pretty sure he's the one

who pushed me through my window
last night.

I'm fine. Thanks for asking.

- Why would he come get you when I'm the one she told?
- They need

a new fall guy
now that Clara's dead.

I bet Bruce used her love
to get her to help.

Clara had nothing to do with it.

What the f*ck happened that
night she found you in the cave?

You wouldn't understand.

We should go to the FBI.

[sighs] Are you out of
your mentally ill little mind?

We're not going anywhere
without proof.

- What the f*ck is that?
- It's a computer.

I thought you went to MIT.

I took it from Lennon's room
for you to hack.

See if you can find any
of the videos the k*ller sent.

What are you gonna do?

Get home before my mother
sends Kyle after me

and try to figure out
a way to get a confession.

Without getting us k*lled.

[Dylan] Thanks.

For what?

Believing me.

About?

Right.

I just assumed
you forgot about that.

- [chuckles] I'm serious.
- Mm.

I'm sure
I'm not her favorite person

after she saw that video of us,

you know, f*cking.

[chuckles softly]
Well, it's not ideal,

but...

she's okay.

She's away at school
most of the time, anyway.

I just know
she's been through a lot lately.

[Lyla chuckles softly]

[breathes deeply]

[lock jiggles]

Hi. If you're looking
for the cabins, they're, um...

Mom?

Alison?

I thought you were dead.

Um...

I-Is that...
is that why you came?

I...

I actually just need to speak
with your father.

- I can wait in the car.
- No.

No, wait. Um, c-can we just...

Can we talk?
Like, just for a minute.

You-you got a new necklace.

That's none of your concern.

Why? I wore the other one

every day after...

Wh-When I thought you were...

I mean...

Wh-What what did I...
What did I do wrong?

And why...

Why do you hate me just so much?

I told you, you need to move on.

Are you-are you
f*cking kidding me?

All-all I've done for 11 years
is not move on,

and all I wanted every day
was for-for you to be here

so that I wouldn't
feel so alone and...

and f*cked-up.

And now you're here, and you...

You just... You won't-you won't
even talk to me?

I mean, h-how-how
can you do that?

How can you just... how can you
just pretend to be dead?

How can you?

No, that-that's not...

That's not the same.
I didn't have a choice.

- Neither did I.
- Yes, you did. I mean,

you-you could... you
could have told us the truth.

The truth is I wanted to be dead

every single day
that I was here!

I missed my family.

We were right here.

My true family was dead.

[exhales]

I married your father
and I tried to pretend,

but it wasn't the same.

So your true family is the cult?

That's a small-minded word.

I'm not surprised you used it.

We were a community based on...

on love and truth and faith.

All the things
your father rejected.

So you just left us all
for Fred.

He was away on a mission

when most of the family
was lost.

He knew what love really was.

No, but you used to love us.

Okay, no. I remember.

You used to read us stories,

and you would lay in bed with me
when I was scared.

You were always
too much like him.

I was like you.

- Everyone told me.
- No.

You both always had
something wrong inside of you.

f*ck you.

You could still choose
to be happier in your next life.

[Alison] You mean
because you ruined this one?

I wish you really were dead!

[crying]

Other people are gonna take
what they want if you don't

get off your ass
and do something.

What is there left to take?

You already took it all.

Do you know how impossible it is
to be your sister?

[scoffs] It's more impossible
to be yours.

All I do every day
is worry about poor Alison.

Got to make sure
poor Alison's okay.

- Poor Alison would be great if you were gone.
- Here we go.

Blame me, per usual.

I do. Every day,

I wake up and I pray
you'll be f*cking gone.

Well, I will be. Soon.

Not gone to Michigan.

Gone. f*cking dead and gone.

- [screaming]
- [thud]

What if she's right

and there's just
something broken inside of me?

Who the f*ck is she to judge?

The bitch pretended to be dead.

[sighs]
She's still my mother.

She hasn't seen you in, like,

ten f*cking years.

She doesn't even know you.

Neither do you.

This is not the time
for your push and pull,

"I'm afraid of intimacy" games.

I mean it.
I'm-I'm seriously f*cked-up.

In what way?

Besides your p*rn channel
and, like, the whole cave thing.

Okay, f*ck you.

I'm just saying,

I love you...

- [sniffles]
- and all your f*cked-up-ness.

Nothing you say can change that.

Yes, it can.

Try me.

See if I run away.

I haven't yet.

That's because you have no idea
what I'm capable of.

What the hell
are you doing here?

The bible
wasn't at the compound.

Well, it isn't here.

You need to help me find it.

I don't think so.

I saw Alison.

She's still
as difficult as ever.

I can only imagine
the terrible things you two did

that made her take
her sister's identity.

Fred has no idea where you are,
does he?

He understands how dangerous
it is for you to be here.

I need the bible.

I'll see if the cops
took it as evidence.

After you're gone.

[FaceTime ringing]

- [water running]
- [whispering indistinctly]

I can't hear you.

[scoffs]

[sighs] I said I found some very
compelling biological evidence.

Twins have
no genetic distinctions.

I know, condescension king.

We were
in the same science class.

Their mom is still alive.

Seriously?

f*ck.

Lennon was just here ranting

about how her mom
said she was a psycho

and how I don't know her at all.

I legit thought I was gonna
get a confession, but...

We're just gonna have to get
her mom to tell us instead.

Wait, why would she do that?

Every good parent wants to get
their child the help they need.

The woman left her kids
and pretended to be dead.

Right.

So, we'll just thr*aten

to tell the police she's alive
if she doesn't help.

Look, all we need to do
is find her.

I think she may be at Clara's.

Do I want to know
how you know that?

I saw a car parked up there
this morning,

and Bruce is part
of the community.

Makes sense their mom was, too.

It's a cult, not a community.

You're making me very
uncomfortable with this talk.

- You want me to go see if she's up there?
- Absolutely not.

Um, this involves psychology,

which is not
your area of expertise.

You just keep hacking
and wait for my signal

to bring fake Lennon.

No wonder
those girls are so f*cked-up.

That's a massive understatement.

I couldn't let her
get away with it.

Look, I...

I know what she did
was terrible, but I...

- I-I would've been... I would've been okay.
- Oh,

I didn't do it for you.

I did it for Lennon.

I am Lennon.

[whispers]
No.

The real Lennon.

The one I loved.

That you k*lled.

I-I don't know
what Dylan told you,

- but he's f*cking...
- I didn't need Dylan to tell me anything.

I saw it
all over your social media

when you ghosted me last fall.

Your angles and hashtags
were so wrong,

- it was legit insane.
- I was...

- I was going through a hard time. It's...
- [sniffles]

Come on, Margot.

You know who I am.

Yeah.

You're f*cking Alison.

[grunting, gasping]

[phone ringing]

- Hi, Bruce.
- [Bruce] Hey, Mei.

Any chance
Lennon's at your place?

Her phone keeps going
straight to voice mail.

She's not here,

but I'm sure
the BFFs are together.

Let me check Find My Friends.

I should probably

get that on Lennon's phone, huh?

Parenting and stalking
go hand in hand

as far as I'm concerned.

I can't tell where Margot is

from the pin drop,
but don't worry.

I've had Kyle
keeping an eye on her

since she got back
from California.

Great. Uh...

Okay. Thanks, Mei.

[grunting]

- [whispers] Margo, please.
- [Margot] I gave you so many chances

to tell the truth.

I low-key told you

the goat head was
about something else you did.

[scoffs]

Even after I k*lled Johnny,

who you supposedly loved most,

how could you not fall apart
and tell the truth?

I am telling the truth.

I mean, what kind of person
lets everyone else die

to cover up their lie?

Please, Margot, just...

Just think about it. I mean,

you know how messed-up I am,

the sh*t I hide
from-from everyone else.

Shut up.

What-what about my scars?
You're...

you're the only one
who knows how I got those.

No, you're just trying
to manipulate me like she did.

You think I don't know
what you were doing

when you kissed me
and then acted like a c**t?

[chuckles softly]
I mean, so Lennon.

Because I am Lennon.

I really started to believe it
when I was at Hoffman.

I thought maybe I was wrong...

...and you really were her.

And you really loved me.

[whispers]
I do love you.

Then why did you pick Dylan?

I didn't.

You're the one
I always came back to.

Ever since that night.

You know that.

[Riley] No,
don't-don't come over here.

[Johnny] Please.

[Margot gasps]

[breathing shakily]

Oh. Hey.

[Riley] She's dead.

It's gonna be okay.

- [Alison] Mm.
- I am right here, okay?

We're gonna
make it through okay.

[whispers]
I promise.

No one's ever loved me
like that before.

You want me to feel sorry
for you?

No one loves me, either, bitch.

I do.

[exhales]
You...

I just f*cking stabbed you.

I...
[sighs]

- I know it doesn't make any sense...
- Yes, it does.

You're just trying
to save yourself.

I-I know it looks like that,
but I-I... I swear.

I ju...

I just want to help you the way
that you helped me that night.

No, I don't need your help.

Mm.

I can't rest
knowing you're out there

No call back.

Uh, I'm close. I'll stop by.

Okay. Be safe.

Um...

Don't worry, you can touch it.

I'm gonna need an ambulance

She stabbed Alison
and she was trying

to sh**t her
when I got the g*n away.

That's insane.

No one can...
No one can hurt you

if you tell the truth.

[Margot] Why would I hurt her?

I love you, Lemon.

It was Dylan.

What?

No, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no.

Why are you doing this?!

No. Margot stabbed her

Oh, I didn't think

Yeah, me neither.

Lennon said he's the one
that stabbed her.

all that stuff about Helen?

We haven't found any evidence.

Well, how could you?
She's been dead for years.

Yeah, Lennon should be

[Kalama] They recovered Alison

along with
some Arctic wolf spiders

in Riley Thacker's arm.

[Lyla] I can bring
your lawyer back in

if that would make you
more comfortable.

There is no redemption
in this life.

That's what you said.

But you also said Margot did it.

I know
Lennon didn't corroborate,

but I would still like to hear
your side of the story.

Her name is Alison.

[Lyla] He isn't helping himself.

Well, this probably
doesn't matter anymore,

but I did find a difference
between the Grant twins.

It actually matters a lot.

Under microscopic investigation,

I found a closed-up piercing
in Alison's upper left earlobe.

And the dead body?

[Wade] Same piercing.

Confirms it was Alison Grant
who d*ed of an apparent su1c1de.

[Lyla] Thanks, Wade.

[Bruce] You're Lennon now.

Alison ran away.

You made it up.

We both got to live with it.

[Alison] What if I can't?

[Bruce] No one can ever know.

How you doing?

It hurts.

It's probably gonna hurt
for a while.

[inhales] You got lucky.

Yeah, I know.

Honey.

What happened to your mom?

I-I don't know.

All right.

Get some sleep.

This is
a very private story time

because I want to share
everything with my BB.

I mean, Dylan's cult obsession
made it très easy.

All I did was plant
a few select items,

like Alison's phone.

I took it after the accident

so Riley wouldn't, like,
steal it or something.

I just used an app to send
all the messages on a timer.

I told Dale
that the goat head thing

was a practical joke
you'd totally die over.

Le douchebag
put it in the closet,

but then he couldn't keep
his f*cking mouth shut.

He was basically extorting me,
which is totally illegal, so...

[groans] I high-key couldn't
have done it without Kyle.

He walked in
on the whole Johnny mess,

and I totally freaked
and threatened to tell my mom

he was f*cking my dad,
but turned out he was cool.

I mean, he even pushed me
out of the window.

He said
that's what he was there for,

to keep me out of trouble.

The problem was
I paid Dale in Bitcoin

from our OnlyFans account,

and Officer Doug
was smarter than he looked.

So I told him to meet me
at the funeral and...

Oh, sorry about Harold.

He just happened
to be constipated.

Oh! Then you kissed me
and ghosted me,

and I got confused.

Which is why I was so fragile

that night at Clara's
when Riley called me a psycho.

So when I got into Clara's truck
to escape

and saw her on the road, I...

just kind of lost it.

I mean, I legit
didn't even check her pulse.

[groans] It would've been
a high-key disaster

if my mom hadn't found
the strawberry syrup

and confronted me
about the mukbang.

So lucky I broke down
and told her everything.

It was her idea to frame Clara.

Everyone already knew
she was high-key insane.

So, she just had Kyle
steal more spiders

to put in everyone's brains.

That would've been the end of it

if stupid Courtney
had just kept her mouth shut.

But Kyle
just took care of her, too.

Oh, my God.
And then Clara k*lled herself,

which was a total coincidence

but made everything easier.

And now here we are,

the love story of the century.
