[pulsating music increases]
[water gurgling]
[metallic clanging]
[grunts]
[sinister music playing]
[gasping]
[insects buzzing]
[Zed] Paris, you got it?
- [Paris] Yeah. Sorry.
- [Zed] Come on, man.
[Zed] Is it gonna give?
Don't look like it.
Nah. I wouldn't have even seen it
if the water weren't this shallow.
[Zed] Where's it headin'?
It's way far. I'll lose it.
It's out by Hog Wallow
at least.
[Zed sighs] Man, leave it.
No way we pullin'
all this pipe today.
Come on, man.
Water stays this low,
we're gonna keep finding sh*t like this.
[engine starts]
[engine rumbling]
[eerie music playing]
[bird cawing in distance]
[Zed] Kid, I'm heading up.
All right.
[Zed] Back when
they first started drilling.
[Ben] It'll probably take you
both some time to clear it out.
[Zed] Yes, sir.
Don't know how far it goes yet.
[Ben] You headed
to old Billy's funeral?
[Zed] Yeah,
the whole town'll be there.
[Ben] I'll see you there.
Thank you, Zed.
I appreciate you.
[Zed] I'm gonna head on out.
See ya, Zed.
[door creaks open]
[Ben] That aggravates
the hell out of me.
They been messing with the lake
too long with that dam.
[radio playing quietly]
Thing never should have existed
in the first place,
it ain't natural. [coughs]
[coughs]
I'm just gonna drop you off,
all right?
What? You change your mind?
A lot of these folks
ain't seen you in years, Paris,
since your mother's funeral.
It'd do 'em good
to see you up on your feet.
She may not even be there.
Come on, that's like...
It's a long drive from Houston.
Don't think
she wants to see me, Dad.
I'm just gonna drop you.
[eerie music playing]
[railway crossing dinging]
[train horn blaring]
[rock song playing on radio]
Well, you ain't gotta come back
and get me or nothing.
I'll find a way home.
[radio announcer]
It's Saturday, September 24th.
Four o'clock on the dot.
Yeah, and I got
a doctor's appointment tomorrow,
so I'll be at Gemini
in the afternoon though.
[Paris] Got you.
[Ben] I'll see you there.
[door closes]
Take this off...
Oh, I got it.
- You sure?
- Mm-hmm.
- Do you know where it goes?
- Yeah, I know where it goes.
Okay, I'll time you. Ready? Go.
[cashier] Uh, twelve dollars
and ten cents.
Are you gonna sleep
at home tonight?
[Ellie] Maybe. I dunno.
[Anna] Are you
going to Claire's?
Then why can't you come home?
Claire's just...
just closer to school.
[Anna] But you've been gone
for a month.
Mimi doesn't care
about the plates anymore.
You don't gotta fight with her.
She's my mom.
I'm allowed to be in a fight with her.
And why?
Did she say something to you?
Yeah. She said
that you're real difficult.
[engine revving]
She said since you were like,
a little baby,
like one years old,
that you were always really difficult.
- Yeah?
- [Anna] Yeah.
Well, she's an a*s.
[Anna] Ellie, she's your mom!
So, in school, we learned about
all the places on Caddo.
Like over 200 that have names
that the Native Americans
named it
way before we came here.
Like even before you were born.
Oh, hi, Saphire!
Hi, Anna!
[Anna] Saphire
told our whole class
that she saw wolves yesterday.
But Miss Henderson told us
that's not possible
because they don't
live here anymore.
- [Anna] Too shallow?
- [Ellie] Too shallow.
- Here, you want to drive?
- [Anna] Yeah, I want to drive.
- Yeah?
- [Anna] Yes.
[Ellie] Okay.
- Just stay in the middle.
- [Anna] I know.
[Ellie] Carter's Chute's
coming up on the left.
I know.
All right.
Get your hand
out of your mouth.
- Stop it.
- What?
- [Anna] Come say hi.
- I gotta tie up.
Can you tell 'em
we didn't have enough for milk?
[Anna] Sure.
- [Lizzie] Anna, Anna!
- [Anna] Hi, Lizzie!
[Anna screams]
[boy exclaiming]
- [boy speaking indistinctly]
- Look at its guts.
Don't touch it. Move. Back up.
- [girl] It ate half of the scales, too.
- Ew!
Look, it's still bleeding.
- Anna, move! Can you back up, please?
- [girl] Kinda weird.
Just another animal.
It's like perfectly cut.
- [girl] Yeah, I think so.
- [boy] And, it's just a...
- [girl] What's her name again?
- [Anna] Ellie.
[Ellie] Who put this here?
[girl] Uncle Jason
found it on the lake.
[Anna] Ew. Look at its eye.
- [boy] Something ate it.
- [girl] Like what?
[boy] Well, it probably took him out of the water,
bit its leg off...
- [Anna] What are you doing?
- [Ellie] Getting rid of this.
[children
speaking indistinctly]
[eerie music playing]
[grunts]
[Paris] Excuse me,
Dr. Mitchell. Hey.
Hey, listen. Sorry to, uh,
ambush you like this.
I think your front desk stopped putting
my calls through to you.
- Yeah. I'm sorry, son.
- [car alarm beeps]
- Paris.
- Uh, yeah.
Um, I gave you the name
of that specialist in Dallas.
Yeah, I know.
No, I talked to him.
He, uh... He wasn't much help,
but, uh, I had these, um,
I had these notes from my dad
that he took on my mother's episodes,
and there's a lot...
Your mother had a chronic case
of myoclonic seizures.
Well, myoclonic patients,
they, uh,
they lose consciousness.
Isn't that right?
That can happen
in some patients.
[Paris] About the ears, sir?
The bleeding?
I mean, I haven't found
a single case of that happening anywhere.
You knew that. I even have a quote
from you, too, saying...
It was terrible thing
that happened on that bridge.
Your mother knew the risk
of driving with her condition.
Just... doesn't make sense,
is all.
She hadn't had a seizure
in six years, sir, so...
There's a lot about the brain
that we don't understand, son.
[sighs]
I know you wish there was something
you could have done,
but she just had a seizure
at the wrong time.
Listen, if, if... I'll meet with you
and your father again,
but on business hours.
You call my office
and make an appointment.
But not like this.
Thank you, sir. Sorry.
[car door closes]
[car engine starts]
[Paris clears throat]
How long you been waiting?
[Cee] Not long.
Hey, baby. Hi, Wally.
Oh, that's a good boy.
Sorry I missed the service.
[clears throat]
You know, he was
a real good grandpa to you.
I'm real sorry. Hey.
- [Cee] Yeah.
- Come here.
I'm going back
to Houston tomorrow.
Makes sense.
- [Cee] So you're driving?
- Yep. Driving.
Yeah. Working too.
I'm, uh, working
out on the lake.
- On the dam?
- [Paris] Yeah.
- Well, the highway over it.
- [Cee chuckles]
- That's great.
- Yeah. [clears throat]
That's really great, Paris.
[Paris clears throat]
Haven't touched it.
[clears throat]
Lot of the wood's gone bad now.
[Cee] Is this the living room?
Uh, kitchen. [clears throat]
It's your floor plan.
[chuckles softly]
Well, it's been a while.
What's this?
[Paris] Kitchen island.
- A kitchen island?
- [Paris] Yeah.
It's... a surprise.
How's pasta sound?
Here, uh, grab me
them tomatoes out.
And, uh, the can opener.
Should be right there
in the cupboard.
Paris, grab me the can opener.
Where is it?
- [Cee] It's right there.
- Mmm.
Right there
in the cupboard to the right.
Think it'd be in a drawer.
Not a cupboard.
- Paris, the water's boiling over. Move.
- It's a can opener.
[scoffs] Oh, my Lord.
[Cee] All right, so a pinch of salt,
a little bit of oregano,
a little bit of chili flakes...
[chuckles]
Oh, my.
Christ.
You've got to try this.
I've outdone myself.
Here.
Well?
That's really good.
I told you.
- That's real good.
- [chuckles]
- [Anna] Ow.
- [Ellie] Why are you so dirty?
Oh, my God, Anna.
Have you been going out
by yourself?
- It's from the lake.
- What is all this mud sh*t?
It takes so long to come off.
Yeah, well, you're just
not washing it proper.
You really gotta rub
as hard as you can.
- Ow.
- [Ellie] Here we go.
See?
Oh. How do you do that?
[Ellie] Magic.
- Okay, go spit.
- [Anna spits, groans]
Go wash your mouth
in the kitchen.
[Anna] Feels weird.
[Daniel] Dear Jesus, I reckon you've been
testing us with this drought here.
But we know there's many folks struggling
in ways, uh, greater than ours.
[people murmuring in agreement]
So I pray
that you open up the heavens
and, uh, allow our lake and land
to thrive once again.
Jesus' name. Amen.
[all] Amen.
[all praising]
[all laughing]
What's wrong with you?
[Daniel] Don't leave
any leftovers.
[man 1] I think we can make
a canoe outta that.
[man 2] This wouldn't
be much of a drought...
[Celeste] I'm sorry about some of y'all having
to eat off of paper plates.
But unfortunately, I don't have enough
china ones at the moment.
- Yes, go get your food.
- [all chatting]
Oh, my God! I forgot!
[all exclaiming]
- No, no, no! What? Get that off the table!
- [woman] Anna!
[Anna] They're so cool though.
Did you want to see?
- [Daniel] Yeah, let me...
- [girl laughs]
[Daniel] Keep eating, everybody.
What have you got?
I found them by Goat Island.
There were millions of them.
They were just scattered
across the water.
- [Daniel] Let me see that.
- Aren't they cool?
- You ever see anything like that?
- They have fuzzy wings.
You know, there's not
many of these left or didn't used to be.
- Really?
- [Keith] These went extinct.
That's crazy, huh?
[Keith] Yeah,
this is a four-eyed moth.
- You see that black spot on its belly?
- [Anna] Mm-hmm.
[Keith] That's where
you can tell.
[Daniel] Where'd you
find these?
[Anna] I was at Bonhard Creek
by myself.
[Daniel] You really went all the way
up there just to get...
[song playing on radio]
Do you want me to rinse these?
[Celeste] No, it's fine.
Thank you for helping.
I thought you hated
these family dinners.
Well, it's not my family.
I'm not related
to any of these people.
[scoffs] You're my daughter.
So, you are part
of this family. Okay?
- I'm on track to graduating a semester early...
- [unzipping bag]
...and I just gotta double up
on a couple classes.
[Celeste] That's great.
[Ellie] I need your signature
and Dad's death certificate
to do it through the state.
Let me just see... Here.
Daniel can sign it.
Well, no, I'm registered
as Elizabeth Lang.
So, um, I need somebody
with my real last name.
Why are you doing this?
I'm doing it for school.
I thought you'd be happy
I'll be gone soon.
[Celeste] Makes no difference
if Daniel signs it,
he raised you, Ellie.
Well, yeah, the difference is
he's not my real dad.
I don't got his last name.
[chuckling]
They don't care about that.
[Ellie] I mean, you got it, right?
I looked it up.
If someone's missing,
after seven years,
they're assumed dead
by the state.
And if it's just got "Lang"
on it, then...
We're not gonna talk about
your dad anymore, okay?
But it's not really a big deal.
And Daniel and I will sign it.
And if anybody at the school needs
to talk to me about it,
I'm happy to talk to 'em. Okay?
Okay?
Okay.
- [Celeste] You done helping?
- Yeah.
[indistinct conversation
continues]
- Eggshell? Eggshell?
- You know it's a good idea.
- Listen...
- No, it's the most boring, bland...
I can't believe that you still think
this is a good idea.
Can you imagine me
at the paint counter?
- I'm like, "Hello. Excuse me."
- All right. All right.
"Can I have 50 gallons
of the most boring paint
- you have on hand?"
- [chuckles]
You know I ain't actually...
Yeah, I just want to be honest
with you.
I wasn't very... healthy,
you know, after the accident.
You were there for me
and I just...
I couldn't do it. You know?
And I want to say
I'm sorry to you.
I'm done feeling guilty
about my mom.
[Wally whining]
I know you got your life
in Houston.
I'm not trying
to get in the way of that.
I'm not trying
to mess with that, but, uh...
But I'm... I'm here.
- [Wally barks]
- Wally, quit it!
I don't know
what's going on with him.
He's been doing that all week.
You don't ever have to be over it.
I told you that.
I know you did. I...
Listen to me.
What happened is, it's...
It's awful.
She's your mom.
What happened'll
always be a part of you.
But it wasn't your fault.
It wasn't your fault.
And you don't ever
have to be done grieving your mama.
You just can't push me
away again. Okay?
- Okay?
- Hmm?
Paris...
I won't.
I won't.
[Anna] Hey, guess what I found.
I found it
in your mom's jewelry box.
Look. Look at it. See?
It's Cancer. It's Mimi's.
- Oh, are you talking about star signs?
- [Anna] Yeah.
- It means she's, like, overprotective...
- Great.
...and she likes everyone
and she likes to cook
and stuff.
Did you know that Mimi
wants to adopt me?
- She said that to you?
- Mm-hmm.
And Daddy wants to adopt you.
I heard 'em talking.
What about your real mom?
Don't you want to...
go back to Florida and see her?
No, not really. I like it here.
- [knocking on door]
- Where's that iPod?
[Daniel] Why is
this door locked?
Um, I just...
Um, I'm looking for something.
I thought I'd left it in here.
[Anna] I think he wants you
to open the door.
[Ellie] Mm-hmm.
Just tell me what you're looking for.
It's fine.
- What's this?
- [door opens]
- What's going on?
- [Anna] We're just hanging out.
[Ellie] Can you just tell me
where it is, Mom?
- Where's what?
- [Celeste] All right, you need to go.
That's what you're doing here?
You wanted a big scene?
No, I'm not. I'm just looking
for my dad's death certificate
- which belongs to me.
- You made your point.
You're not related
to any of the people here
and you won't
put in the effort.
[Ellie] He's my dad.
I'm allowed to have...
[Celeste] You're not allowed
to be in here!
Can we please discuss this
when we don't have a house full of people?
This isn't a big deal. I'll go.
She pushes me
into being upset like this.
Ellie, please don't leave.
Can you just stay?
- I'll see you at school.
- Why right now?
- Right now we've got a...
- I'm going!
Jesus. How many beers
have you had?
You don't throw any plates
on your way out!
- Ellie, please don't leave...
- Stay here with me.
[Celeste] Baby, you stay here.
[Anna] No, Mimi. Please can I go?
I really wanna go.
[song playing on radio]
[indistinct conversation]
[Daniel] Water's too low
if you're taking Carter's Chute.
[Ellie] Yeah, I got it.
[Daniel] It's... Only got a few minutes
before it's dark.
[Ellie] Got it.
I know you do. I...
I'm just reminding ya.
It was nice to have you
back home again.
All right, come back soon.
Come back tomorrow for breakfast.
- [motor rumbling]
- We'll break out the waffle maker.
All right. I'll hold a chair.
- Drive safe.
- Bye.
[eerie music playing]
[Wally barks]
[Wally barking]
Hey.
- [barking]
- [Paris] Wally, what are you doing?
- Hey!
- [Wally barking]
[boat motor revving]
[rotor scrapes]
[motor sputtering]
- [Paris] What are you doing? Hmm?
- [Wally barks]
What are you doing?
- [Wally whines]
- Why you gotta be such a scaredy-cat?
- [barks]
- What?
[indistinct clanging]
[indistinct rumbling
and clanging]
[insects buzzing
and chirruping]
- [Wally barks]
- Wally, let's go.
[Wally whines]
Come on.
Hey, come on. Let's go.
[insects buzzing]
[sinister music playing]
[Ellie] Yeah, but wolves
don't live around here.
Somebody must have
let them loose.
Otherwise, how could they just
be that far out in the water?
- [Claire] I don't know.
- [cell phone dings]
It's just some weird sh*t.
[Claire] It's just nature.
I hear weird stuff
on the lake all the time.
- Where were they again?
- Up by Found Herd.
That's like
the middle of nowhere.
[Ellie] Yeah, that's where Anna found
those huge moths
- right off Goat Island Bridge.
- [cell phone dinging]
I'm sorry. Um, Trevor is trying to meet me
at Legends tonight.
- But, uh... I'll just see him tomorrow.
- [cell phone dinging]
Okay. Good night.
You gonna go home
to your family
or are you gonna stay here
tomorrow night too?
Uh... I don't know.
[Claire] Okay.
Night.
[cell phone ringtone playing]
[clicks phone]
[Celeste] Ellie, I need you
to pick up your phone.
I've left three messages now.
I need you to call us back.
[Daniel] Tell her she needs
to bring the skiff back now.
[Celeste] Yes, we need
the skiff back here.
Anna's not here.
Her boat's gone.
- [Claire] What's wrong?
- [Celeste] Just, um, call me back.
Call back, please.
I don't know.
Something about Anna.
[chuckles] Look at you
looking all perky today.
You enjoying yourself?
Man, did you have
a good night last night?
Boy, you look like
you struggling.
Can we get it any closer?
[Zed] If I pulled up
any closer,
we're gonna get stuck.
The funny thing about it is,
this thing used to be
all water back.
It used to be really deep.
Now this sh*t's all land.
It's supposed to rain tonight,
so, tomorrow you'll have
a little bit more water to work with.
Should we follow it?
[scoffs] We're not
following sh*t.
You can go ahead and follow it.
You wanna go ahead
and walk on through there?
I'll circle around,
meet you on the other side.
- Yeah.
- [Zed] You got your walkie, huh?
- [Paris] Yep.
- [Zed] All right.
Claire's. I was at Claire's.
Why would she have
come with me?
You saw me saying bye to her.
Yeah, I'm five minutes away.
Just...
Okay! Okay!
[engine revving faster]
[boat thumps on dock]
Hey, did y'all
find anything yet?
[Ellie] I don't know.
Tell Daniel I'm gonna go around
Randall Island, all right?
Okay.
Mom?
You heard anything yet?
What? No. Did you get Daniel?
- [Ellie] No.
- Go get him. Please!
We need to get out
on the water!
How long has she been gone?
[Celeste] Oh, Ellie, please!
- [door opens]
- The Moors and Brandon ain't seen her.
- Ellie, you get the skiff back?
- [Ellie] Yeah.
- [Celeste] I've got pictures.
- [Daniel] Jason and Rita ain't home.
You see anything on the water?
No, nothing. Are you sure
she took the dinghy?
[Celeste] It's not there,
is it?
Give me your keys.
Ours ain't on the hook.
[Celeste] No, I don't think
she's run away from home.
Come on, come on, come on!
Let's go!
Have you called
her friends? Like...
- Like Amanda or... or Saphire?
- [Celeste] She ain't there.
- Or how about the Reynor kids?
- You ain't seen her since last night?
- [Ellie] No.
- She call your phone?
- [Daniel] Where'd you dock it?
- [Ellie] What?
[Daniel] The skiff, Ellie.
It ain't there.
[Ellie] Yeah, it is.
I just left it right there.
[ominous music playing]
[Daniel, yelling] Anna!
Where'd you dock it?
It was right here.
It was right here.
Your brother saw me.
I just got home. How else would I have...
- Well, what happened to it?
- [Ellie] I don't know!
You best come straight
with me, girl.
Don't you lie to me right now.
Someone took it. Someone...
I don't know what happened.
[Daniel] God...
[sinister music playing]
[walkie-talkie beeps]
- Hey.
- [walkie-talkie beeps]
I got the end.
Leads to an old pump jack.
- [walkie-talkie beeps]
- Hey, you copy?
[sound warbles]
[sound muffled]
[distant whirring]
- [wolf howls in distance]
- [sound warbles]
[sound sharpens]
[Zed, in distance] Paris!
[walkie-talkie chirps]
[quietly] Yeah. [muttering]
[Zed] Paris.
- Paris!
- [Paris] Yeah.
[Zed] Kid, where you been?
Look at all this sh*t.
I mean, where the hell'd
all this stuff come from?
I feel like the current
must lead it back here.
Wasn't none of this
here before. I swear.
Hey, did you hear that chopper?
There was wolves...
[Zed] The boat's stuck.
Something's under the motor or something.
I can't get to it.
The trim isn't working.
I mean, I don't know,
this piece of sh*t...
[Paris] We'll try in a sec.
[clears throat]
[groans] My back, man.
[sighs]
I ain't got time to be dickin' around
in this water like this, man.
[sinister music playing]
[Zed] Kid, did you get it?
[Paris] Yeah.
Yeah, you're clear.
You can start it.
[motor rumbling]
[officer] Eighty pounds, okay.
What color is her hair?
- [Celeste] Brown.
- [officer] Brown hair.
- Um, you know what? I have...
- [officer] Okay.
[indistinct radio chatter]
Here. Excuse me.
We just got these back. Um...
- So, she looks just like this.
- [officer] Okay.
Except for a tooth.
Tooth?
Oh, yeah,
she just lost her tooth.
Which tooth? Front tooth?
- [Ellie] Right tooth.
- [officer] Okay.
What was she wearing?
[Celeste] Like, a big hoodie.
Her sister, Ellie's.
- Um...
- [officer] Okay, what color was it?
- [knocking on door]
- [Celeste] Karnack East grey.
Hey, folks. Hey, Pastor.
[Daniel] Okay,
can we get going now?
Just hang on a second.
[Daniel] We can talk
on the lake.
[sheriff] Pastor,
I have half the department
organizing the search effort
right now.
- [Daniel] Mark...
- Okay? From the Parish side.
And we're gonna search
the whole lake.
Right now, let's just,
everybody just have a seat.
We have some things
we need to talk through.
[Daniel] Wait,
wait, wait, wait.
Did you find something?
Uh, no. Listen...
We need to go through...
Okay, look.
Just so we can put it behind us,
we need to talk about Celeste's history
with Child Protective Services.
Okay, look, I know
it was a long time ago.
- [Celeste] I'm sorry?
- [Mark] We just...
But it's just something
that's gonna...
[Celeste] I'm sorry.
That was so long...
Are you... Really, Mark?
[Mark] Daniel, we still got two cases
on file with Elizabeth.
Yeah, with Ellie years ago!
Closed cases.
It's got nothing to do with this.
[Mark] We need
to talk this through.
When we were living in mom's car,
I missed some school.
[Daniel] Ellie, please!
Celeste didn't do anything to Anna.
All right? Anna was probably following
her sister out on the lake.
She's done it before.
But now we got
two boats missing. Two!
Now, I sent you the damn pictures of 'em.
What are we waiting for?
- We ain't waiting...
- Either somebody's taken her, or she's hurt!
- [Mark] Daniel.
- [door opens and closes]
[Mark] Jones, you wanna stay here
with Mrs. Bennett?
[Jones] Yes, sir.
[car approaching]
[car door opening]
- [car door closing]
- [Ben coughing]
[door opens]
- [Ben] Hey, hey.
- Hey.
What you doing here?
- Why ain't you out on the water?
- How'd it go?
- You know, with...
- [Ben] It was fine.
I'm spending way too much time
in that damn hospital.
[machine beeps]
- What's going on?
- [Paris] Nothing.
We, uh, found the end of that
GRC pipe today.
It leads to an old pump jack
out in the middle of the forest
by Goat Island.
- All right.
- [Paris opens soda can]
[Ben] But why are you here?
I mean, what's going on?
Was looking for
the Longview hospital stuff.
Those, uh, those medical records
they said they gave to Mom.
Sorry.
Couldn't find 'em.
[Ben] Because I got rid
of all that stuff.
[TV playing indistinctly]
At a certain point, that's it.
- Right?
- Yeah.
Yeah.
I still think
she was misdiagnosed.
See you tomorrow.
[sinister music playing]
[engine starts]
- [helicopter whirring]
- [man 1] Anna!
[Daniel] Anna!
[man 2] Anna Bennett!
Anna!
[man 2] Anna Bennett!
- [man 3] Anna!
- [Daniel] Anna!
- Anna!
- [helicopter whirring]
[man 4] Water's too shallow.
- We're getting stuck here.
- [dog barking]
[pulsating tense music playing]
[Paris] It's right up here.
This is it.
I'm gonna find it.
Just give me a sec.
[Cee] Is this where
the necklace was?
No, I found it over there.
But here's where
the sound dropped out.
Like my ears stopped working.
For some reason,
it ain't happening.
Footprints are all covered up,
but I swear it was right here.
[Mark] Put the call out.
We got a positive ID
on Anna Bennett's boat here.
- [Daniel] Really?
- [Mark] Jeffrey.
[Daniel] They didn't
find anything else?
[Mark] No, just floating
out in the channel.
Not tethered.
Just past the old bridge.
[Daniel] And you can dust it
for prints, right?
[Mark] We can. We can, pal.
There's a lab in Dallas
we can use.
Now it being wet,
it's not ideal.
- But we gotta try.
- [Mark] Sure.
We'll sure try, Pastor.
Now the water's so shallow, I think...
Her life jacket's gone.
- [Mark] Yeah?
- [Ellie] Yeah, she's got a life jacket.
Last time we took the boat out,
it was here.
It would be here, or...
- It means she's got it on her.
- That's good.
- That's a good thing.
- [deputy] What color is it?
It's like a bright orange.
It's got her name on it.
[warden] Okay, we'll put that out.
Orange life jacket.
You wanna call the divers?
Anything else you see missing?
[deputy, over radio] Orange life jacket.
Name's Anna.
No.
And it all came back really quick.
Sound, all of it.
Then my hand was shaking.
Like her seizures?
[Paris] Yeah.
I felt her.
- Okay.
- [Paris] I know my mom was out there.
[Cee] Why would
she have been out
in the middle of the lake
like that?
I just...
It's massive and I just...
- I'm sorry.
- [Paris] I'm fine.
- [Cee] So, if that's the same...
- We don't have to...
No, I don't want to
talk about it.
Should take you home. Yeah?
Hey, you remember the last time
we were out on a boat?
It was me, you, Ali and Andrew.
And we had three boats.
[chuckling] And we got stuck.
We could barely get out.
It was a summer drought.
Come on,
you don't remember that?
We got stuck in the mud.
- On Jacob's Cross.
- When was that?
You don't remember
when we got bit up by mosquitos
and I thought I had West Nile
for like, a month?
[eerie music playing]
Forgot there was a drought
in '99.
[starts engine]
Yeah. I'm, uh...
I'm sorry. I know it's all foggy
for you around that time.
[Celeste] It's funny you care so much
all of a sudden.
[Ellie] What?
Just all that
"They ain't my family."
Anna ain't your family?
- It's just strange to me...
- Did you hit her?
[scoffs] I have never laid a finger
on that child, and you know that.
- I have never, ever.
- [Ellie] Fine, okay.
It was you! She was following you
out there...
She could've come with me to Claire's,
but you didn't let her.
You really wanted her
to go to Claire's with you?
Of course,
she could come to Claire's.
- She could always...
- Know what?
[tires screech]
[Celeste] I just need a second.
I can't listen to you. I...
Just walk the rest of the way.
Please.
[mysterious music playing]
But these three squares right here,
this is our area.
We have a team,
and we're gonna meet those shortliners
coming from Jackson
in a couple of hours.
We have three team leaders.
So, they're gonna grab
a dozen per square.
If you have any questions...
'93.
'85.
[Mark] We gone from here.
From Hog Wallow,
all the way to Government Ditch.
Now, I've got five boats
got stuck last night.
It took me half the night
to get 'em unstuck.
You don't think
that's what happened to her?
This ain't water anymore.
This is land that
you don't even know about.
You cannot say
that you searched the area.
I got a call in to get
more water in the dam
to raise the water level
so we can get more boats out there.
But with that crack in the dam,
I need approval
from Marion County.
Until then,
there's nothing else we can do.
[Ellie] She's out there now!
- She is there!
- Ellie, Ellie, listen to me.
We got half the town out here
looking for her.
- Wait, is your daddy here?
- [train horn blowing]
I can't have you
out on the lake by yourself.
It's too dangerous
for anyone. Okay?
- Ellie, it's a buddy system.
- [train horn blowing loudly]
- What's this?
- It's my dad's.
He logged every time
my mom had a seizure going back to 1972.
Look at this list here.
'93. My mom
had three seizures in '93.
Look what else
is happening in '93.
See?
The water level's low, right?
And that drought lasted
that whole summer, too,
just like this one.
[Mark, over TV] ...across the shoreline
into Louisiana.
We are working with,
uh, departments and administrations there,
to kind of help out
in the search.
Uh, they've been
more than gracious.
And they have a structured grid
that they're going over.
It's a very efficient system,
- but I'll be honest...
- [Ellie] What the hell?
And '72. See? Same thing again.
Mom had seizures
every time the water was low.
Now, see, it was raining
when we were out there, right?
Before, when I had a seizure,
it was completely dry.
How long have you been
looking up this stuff?
[Paris] How long?
What do you mean?
Why does that matter?
I don't know. Just, um...
Have you showed your dad this?
No. He don't wanna
hear about it.
What if the seizures are...
What if they're hereditary?
She passed them down to you.
Mmm, I ain't never had one,
you know?
- [Cee] I know...
- Until now.
- But...
- When I set foot right there.
Something's happening
when it gets dry in that part of the lake.
- I know, Paris. I'm just saying...
- The water level's low...
...you know, they could be genetic.
Wasn't that part of it?
Yeah.
I'm just trying to think about
every possible explanation.
Yeah.
I get it.
Yeah, it's okay.
[Cee] Hey.
I loved your mama.
You know that.
I just don't think
that she'd be wanting you
to spend your time obsessing.
[Paris] Maybe don't worry
about what she'd want.
- Looking at me like I'm crazy.
- [Cee] I'm not.
Yeah.
[Cee] Paris, I missed you.
I was supposed to go back
to Houston yesterday.
But I'm here with you.
- Okay.
- Okay, what?
Okay. I don't know
what you want.
[Cee] Do you want me here?
I don't know what you want me
to say to that.
- I can't. I gotta go.
- [Cee] I need an answer.
Yeah, well,
I can't give you one.
I can't.
I gotta go back.
- [men speaking indistinctly]
- Mom, why is Anna's boat back?
[Celeste] What?
Anna's boat. Why is it back?
Oh, the, uh, deputy, the tall one,
he brought it back.
- He said they don't need it anymore.
- What?
[officer, faintly] Another guy
diving in from Dallas.
What are you doing?
[Celeste] I'm just looking for
something that might help.
[pages rustling]
Just stop it, please. Just...
- [Ellie] What?
- [sighs heavily]
You wanna be involved
in every little thing?
- Huh?
- I wanna help.
When was the last time you even
spent one night in this house? Hmm?
Anna's been crying all these weeks
you've been gone,
asking if you hated her.
Do you know that?
No.
If you spent more time here,
you would have.
[officer, faintly] If I find
anything suspicious...
[Ellie] She's gonna come back.
[officer, faintly] If anybody has any questions,
I'll do my best to answer.
Might not.
[officer, faintly] Objects,
articles of clothing...
[pages rustling]
Just because...
he went missing...
- it doesn't mean you know everything.
- What?
Just because he went missing,
doesn't mean
you know everything.
He left, Ellie.
Your father didn't go missing.
He left.
- You don't know that.
- Yes, I do.
He left me for someone.
I met the woman.
She attacked me.
She came after me
and I fought back. I hurt her.
You were there, screaming.
She saw you. You were a baby.
I told her
to tell him about you.
He chose never to come back.
He didn't want us.
This is why
I never wanted to tell you.
I'm so sorry, Ellie.
[woman on TV] ...have needed
and have been praying for.
I hope everyone
is staying safe out there
because it does come
with its own dangers.
Meanwhile, repairs continue
at Holmos Dam.
State officials have been
trying to secure funds...
- [sobs]
- [bowl clatters]
...against pushback
from the governor's office.
The dam originally constructed
in the early 1950s
was a part of a series
of government projects
spearheaded by the TVA.
Engineers are concerned
that an influx of water
could prove dangerous
to the dam's...
- [TV continues indistinctly]
- [Ellie sniffles]
[motor revving]
[eerie music playing]
- [brakes squeal]
- [tires skid]
- Hey.
- [Paris] Hey. [clears throat]
- You okay?
- [Paris] Yeah.
[motor rumbling]
[insects buzzing]
- [Ben] Where you been?
- I had an appointment today.
- You don't show up for work.
- [Paris] Forgot to tell you.
- You don't think I'm gonna worry?
- No, I get it.
I'm good.
Don't gotta worry about me.
[chuckling] Yeah, but I do.
It's part of the job.
- [indistinct clanging]
- [dogs barking in distance]
[Ben] I was thinking about maybe calling
Wade up at the dam site
to see about borrowing
one of those diggers,
and we can pull out all that
old rotten foundation that you got there.
- [indistinct clanging]
- [motor rumbling]
[motor revving]
[Ben] We could get that done
over the weekend.
- Get your place going there.
- Yeah.
- You have such a beautiful...
- I don't need a new house right now, Dad.
- Look, I gotta go.
- Uh...
I know I can't talk to you
like your mother.
But you know that she would
want me to check in with you
and make sure that you're okay.
Yeah, I know.
- I miss her, too.
- [Paris] Yeah.
- I'm fine, Dad.
- [starts engine]
Really.
Let me back up.
I gotta let you out.
I'll see you tomorrow. Okay?
See you tomorrow.
Anna?
[intense music playing]
[rotor thumps and grinds]
[quietly] f*ck! [sighs]
[man, over speakers]
Anna Bennett!
[boat motor rumbling]
Is someone there?
We're here to help you.
Just call out.
Show yourself!
No one should be
out here alone.
- Hello?
- [Ellie gasps]
[helicopter whirring]
[woman] Anna!
[sound warbles]
- [sound sharpens]
- [Ellie panting]
[whispering] sh*t, my phone.
What the hell? Oh, my God.
Come on. Come on.
[insects buzzing]
[Ellie] Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
I thought I was the only one
liked to fish this early. Huh.
You sure you can find
your way back again?
I got a spare tank right here.
We can go fill her up.
No, I'll be okay.
You can just drop me off at Dottie's.
- [dog whines, barks]
- Marigold, you a good girl?
- Safe ride home.
- Thank you.
- [knocks on door]
- [Daniel] Lisa!
Ellie, did you see anything
out on the water?
No.
- [dog barking]
- [Celeste] Did she follow you to Claire's?
- No.
- Are you sure?
No, I'm here. Go outside and get Daniel.
He needs the boat now.
- Yes, we're in Marshall County.
- Wait, Mom.
[Celeste] In Karnack.
Yes. 67 Pivot Road.
Uh, well, one of our boats
is missing,
so we think maybe
she's out on the water.
Yeah. No. I don't know.
[ominous music playing]
We're in Harrison County.
Karnack.
67 Pivot Road.
One of our boats is missing, so we think
she might be out on the water with it.
No.
Well, no. She knows not to go out
without telling anyone, so...
She did this about a month ago.
She followed her sister
out on the water
without asking.
[Ellie, whispering] Anna.
[Celeste] My daughter, Ellie,
she just got home.
But she hasn't seen her, so...
We woke up, and she isn't here.
So, I need someone
out on the lake looking now.
- Y'all need to get out on the water.
- [Ellie] Mom?
[Celeste] She could be hurt or in trouble.
She's a little girl.
[Ellie] You heard anything yet?
[Celeste] No.
Did you get Daniel?
- [Ellie] No.
- [Celeste] Go get him. Please!
We need to get out
on the water!
- [Ellie] How long has she been gone?
- [Celeste] Oh, Ellie, please!
[panting]
[Ellie] Anna!
Anna!
[rotor scraping]
[motor stalling]
[Ellie, indistinctly] Anna!
[stops motor]
[Anna, faintly] Ellie!
Anna?
[starts motor]
[man yelling in distance]
[Anna] Ellie!
[Ellie] Stay there!
Anna, where are you?
Just stay there!
Anna, where are you?
Can you hear me?
[Anna, faintly] Ellie?
Anna?
- [sound warbles]
- [sound muffles]
[gasps]
[Ellie gasps in distance]
Hey.
Hey!
[Anna] Ellie!
- [boat motor sputtering]
- I can't get it to start.
Anna? Anna!
- [sound warbles]
- [sound muffles]
[indistinct clanging]
[clanging]
- [sound warbles]
- [sound sharpens]
[panting]
[ominous music playing]
- How'd you find me?
- Anna. Hey.
[Anna] Is that
the way to Claire's?
I heard you. I followed your voice.
Where you been?
Everybody's been
looking for you.
No, I was just
following you to Claire's.
You just left.
Why'd you break everything?
What did I do? What...
You hurt Mimi,
and you threw a plate.
[Ellie] That was a month ago.
[Anna] What are you
talking about? You just left.
Wait. Wait.
- What?
- [Ellie] Your tooth.
What are you doing?
Hey.
Hey.
[breathing heavily]
Hey! I need help!
Stop!
Ow! Stop.
What's wrong with you?
What are you doing?
I just wanted to go
to Claire's with you.
[breathing heavily]
Hey, wake up.
Wake up, wake up.
Why are you and your mom
always fighting?
You just... You make everyone cry.
You make everyone so sad.
- Anna, stop. Stop.
- You leave the house whenever you want.
- Why do you...
- Stop. Stop!
We need to
get off the lake, okay?
Okay. Okay, we're going home.
Move.
- I'll take us home, okay?
- Okay.
All right.
[gasps]
Hey. Hey, it's okay.
It's okay. I got you.
[Paris panting]
[tense music playing]
[metallic whining]
[Paris breathing heavily]
- [distant expl*si*n]
- [birds cawing]
[metallic whining continues]
- [Anna] Leave me alone!
- [Daniel] Anna!
- Sweetheart.
- [knocks on door]
- I'm being patient. Knock it off.
- [Celeste] Anna.
[Daniel] Come on.
Open the door.
[Celeste] Anna... God.
[Daniel] I'm gonna
count to three.
- [dog barks]
- [Daniel] One...
Don't you ever go out on that lake
without asking if...
- Daniel!
- [slams garbage can]
[Celeste] What are you
doing back here, huh?
[Daniel] What?
[Celeste] You made a big stink
about going to Claire's and now you're back.
[Daniel] Ellie, enough!
sh*t. What do you have to say?
What do you have to say to me?
[Daniel] Please,
no more fighting.
- I'm sorry.
- You don't get to apologize. You don't...
You can't come in this house
if this is what you're gonna do in this house!
You threaten
your mother like that again,
you cause violence
in this house like that again,
I will call Sheriff Tanner.
Go to Claire's like you said.
I gotta take care
of your mother.
Daniel, you cannot let Anna
go on that lake.
You... You just cannot
let her go out alone.
She's gonna follow me again,
and it's gonna be bad.
What? What are you
talking about?
- It's dangerous.
- What are you doing?
I'm the one
that has to explain to Anna
why you're at your mother's throat
all the time.
- No. I'm talking about Anna.
- And I'm talking about you.
Your behavior. You want to try
being a real sister to her?
Maybe start behaving
like a real adult.
I pray for you all the time that you
and your mother will find some peace.
But I'm done tonight.
You don't get to just come back
and pretend it didn't happen.
[door opens and closes]
[ominous music playing]
[Paris grunting]
[metallic whining]
[ominous music increases]
[men speaking indistinctly

- [man] Okay, clear!
- [expl*si*n]
[vehicle approaching]
Hey.
Hey!
[Daniel, faintly]
Will you be okay?
I'm sorry. It's gonna be okay.
Come here.
Give me a hug, sweetheart.
I love ya.
You want some cake?
- [Anna] Yeah.
- [Daniel] One piece.
- Take her. Take her.
- [man 1] What's going on?
- What happened to her?
- She, she fell on a branch. [coughs]
[man 2] Put her in the back.
Here. Keep that pressed on her.
- [Paris coughs]
- [man 2] Here ya go.
- [man 1] Throw it out.
- [man 3] Wolves get her?
What?
[man 1] My God.
Were y'all at the dam site?
- No, no. No, I...
- [man 3] Her breathing's getting ragged.
Is this Caddo? This Caddo Lake?
- [man 3] Still breathing.
- What's your name?
Paris. I'm Paris.
I'm Ben Lang's son.
Gemini Explorations.
- Drunk out of his mind.
- This is Karnack, right? Caddo Lake?
[moos]
- [man 2] Yeah, this is Caddo.
- [cow moos]
What year is it?
- [man 2] What?
- What's the year?
[man 2] It's '52.
- '52?
- Robert, let's go.
You know, you're bleeding too.
- [man 3] We gotta go.
- You're not f*cking with me, right?
[man 1] What are you doing
with this girl, son?
- Nothing. I just...
- [distant expl*si*n]
- What'd you do to her?
- [Paris] Sorry, I'm not...
- Rob, we gotta go. Come on.
- [Paris] Sorry.
We gotta get her to a doctor.
[insects chirruping]
[thunder rumbling]
[Paris] 1952.
I can go back.
[laughing]
Okay.

I'm out by Found Herd Creek,
up under the old bridge.
- [Daniel] Where?
- Found Herd.
- The moths that Anna found they just...
- [Daniel] Found Herd? What?
You're breaking up.
- Just please come, Daniel.

- This boat channel is off-limits.
- Yeah. Yeah, sorry.
- I'm just heading out.
- Don't move.
- [helicopter whirring]
- I'm...
I'm a little lost.
- Hold on.
- There's no problem. I just...
Just got turned around, is all.
- This your boat?
- What's that?
- [warden] Is this your boat?
- Yes, sir.
- [warden] You got some identification?
- Yes, sir.
- [motor revs]
- [warden] Hey, hey, hey!
[siren wailing]
[faintly] You need help?
[Ellie, quietly] 2005.
- [EMT] You coming?
- [warden] No, I'll follow.
Sheriff'll meet you
at the hospital.
- Watch the blood in his ears.
- Hey. What year is it?
[EMT] It's 2022, sweetie.
- [warden] Jesus. He's shaking again.
- [EMT] Yeah, I got it.
- [siren wails]
- You're in the back of an ambulance...
Hi. Have you seen this girl?
- She missing?
- Yeah.
[cashier] Jaclyn! This girl's saying
she done lost somebody.
- My sister.
- What's her name?
- [Ellie] Anna.
- You lost her in here?
[Ellie] No, we meet here
after school.
[cashier] It's Saturday.
[manager] Do you need me
to lock the doors?
Ma'am?
Anna!
[mother] Come on, baby.
- Excuse me?
- [man] Sorry.
- Excuse me? Have you...
- [man] No, sorry.
[ominous music playing]
[Mark] Just stop.
Don't mess with that.
I wanna know
how you came upon that boat.
You can't explain yourself,
you're not going anywhere.
[woman] Hey! What the hell
are you doing in my truck?
- How'd you get in?
- Where did you get this?
- That's my necklace.
- Where did you get this?
- Why do you... Drop it!
- Tell me where you got this.
Tell me!
- Give me my necklace.
- [baby crying]
- [man] Hey, hey, hey!
- [Cee] Give me!
She stole from me.
She has my necklace. You stole it.
- Get off me! Give it back!
- Tell me where you got this.
This is my sister's.
Where did you get it?
[baby crying]
- [Ellie] Where did you get this?
- It's his mother's.
On the flyer, his mother,
Anna Lang.
He gave it to me before he went missing.
It's Anna's.
Now, can I have
my necklace back?
- [baby crying]
- [man] You okay?
- [baby crying]
- [Cee hushing]
Wait.
Do you know where he is?
That's okay, Ellie. [hushing]
- It's okay, baby.
- What did you just call her?
[Cee] I need you to tell him
that we have a baby now.
And that I'm not gonna be mad.
I just need him
to come home, okay?
And I don't care if he's with you.
I don't care.
But I need you to tell him, okay?
Tell him I miss him.
Tell him to come home.
- [man] Hey!
- [tires screech]
[Cee] Will you
tell him, please?
- [car horn honks]
- Please tell him!
[Ellie, quietly] Anna Lang.
[Mark] Is this your blood?
Whose blood is it?
...that we're gonna see
across our area
with Karnack being hit
the hardest...
- You seen this girl?
- [Paris] No.
I don't know her.
What are you doing
with her boat?
I...
[Mark] Look, you tell me what I need to know,
and we'll let you go.
I can't, I can't.
[TV continues indistinctly]
[Mark] What happened?
- Police report clean 70...
- [thunder rumbling]
[alarm beeping]
[Paris] It's gonna close.
Look, just relax.
You're safe here, okay?
- No, I gotta get back. I gotta go.
- Sit back.
[officer] Hey, Sheriff.
[Mark] They say about
getting another room?
They said he's gotta
stay awake a couple more hours
before they can transfer him.
- Martha, look.
- [Martha] Sheriff?
[Mark] Kid's good to go.
We'll take him off your hands.
[Martha] Let me just make
another round.
[ominous music playing]
It's $10 an hour.
The first ten minutes are free.
[keyboard clacking]

are taking place around Caddo
where authorities believe
that if the dam fails...
The pastor and Mrs. Bennett

- [Mark] No. No...
Pull the car around.

- Yes, sir.

You'll be fine.

- Right now?
- [Paris] Yep.
- Okay, you have to wait.
- I'll just use the one here.
- We're okay in here?
- No. Let's go.
- Yeah, I just need to use the restroom.
- Um, yes, where's the nearest restroom?
- It's right over there.
Those stay on. Door stays open.
No messing around.
[reporter on TV] For two days,
all the people on the street...
- [Mark] Hey!

Meanwhile, in Karnack, Texas,
where eight-year-old
Anna Bennett is still missing.
Her last known location,
out on Caddo Lake three days ago.
Anna Bennett disappeared
from her family's home between midnight and six...
It has been suspended in anticipation
of the upcoming storm,
which is predicted
to drop over six inches of rain

She's wearing an oversized...

[reporter on TV] Now, if you would like
to join the search,
please contact local county
Sheriff Taylor's office.
They could use
as many volunteers as possible
to search the lake
and surrounding areas,
which has proved
difficult with...
- [indistinct conversation]

- [nurse] Yes, ma'am.
- Can you give me a rundown on the floor?
Miss Baker's fine. Abel's okay.
Darlene was fussy but stable.
- What about Benjamin Lang?
- Yeah, he's awake.
He was having trouble
with the tube today.
I've got him on the power-pack.
[guard] Ladies,
we've got a situation here.
The man from the lake
has escaped custody.
If y'all just wanna
head downstairs.
Y'all are gonna be fine.
Just stay together.

[chuckles softly]

[machine beeping]
[Paris whispering] Dad.
What happened?
It's okay. It's okay.
Listen.
I found Mom.
I found her.
There's a place on the lake
where you can change times.
It's why she was, she was...
Why she was sick.
She was a little girl.
She was hurt.
She was hurt and I carried her,
I carried her in my arms.
- I saved her.
- [Ben coughing]
Hey, hey, hey.
[Ben coughs]
I gotta go home.
- I gotta get back before it closes up.

[nurse] Sheriff, he's in here.
- Dad, I'm okay now. You hear me?
- [coughing]
I'm okay now.
You don't gotta worry about me.
I'm gonna come home to you.
To Celeste. I'm coming home.
Promise.

[Ellie] Daniel!
[Daniel] Ellie!
Come on, baby. We got you. Come on.
Where you been?
- [man] We got you. Sit down. Sit down.
- You okay?
You get caught in the storm?
It filled up the lake so quick.
We found the skiff.
[man] Drink
some of this, right here.
[Daniel] What, what,
what happened?
How long has she been gone?
Three days.
- Your face.
- [man] We got Ellie.
- Up on Found Herd Creek.
- Where's Mom?
[Daniel] Home.
There was, uh, this guy.
He stole the car.
He was definitely involved.
He, he was on Anna's boat.
Your mom, she thought he looked
like your father. Like Paris.
He k*lled himself,
jumping off the dam.
Your mother's...
[man] They said they can meet us
on the channel.
Okay.
It's, uh...
We're trying to figure it out.
- Daniel.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm right here.
Tell me what happened.
This place...
Nature made this place...
Through...
We're family.
You and me.
- Through Anna.
- We've always been family.
Ellie, I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry I haven't...
- No, no, no.
- I haven't...
- No.
Anna's okay.
[sniffles] You think so?
I know she is.
[Daniel cries]
I know she's okay.
[TV playing indistinctly]
...everyone is staying safe.
Meanwhile, authorities are asking
for help identifying a deceased man.
A suspect
in the Anna Bennett case.
Police have released
this photo.
Describing the man between
25 and 30 years old,
with brown hair and light brown eyes,
and a slim build.
The man had
no identification on him
and was initially found
in missing eight-year-old Anna Bennett's boat.
The man escaped from South Caddo Hospital
and was pursued by authorities
before jumping off
the Holmos Dam overpass
just moments
before the dam's failure.
Police say the man drowned
in the ensuing flood of water.
Authorities are asking for the public's help
on the man's identity.
It's him.
Meanwhile, the Holmos Dam
is in shatters
after just a few hours ago.
He was trying to get back.
The dam constructed
in the early 1950s
has needed significant repairs
for years now...
I...
...but authorities lack funds
to make those repairs.
The community now faces
the brunt of those leaks
as homes have flooded
and possessions have been lost.
It's from 1952.
They didn't mean to leave us.
