[bunniefuu]

[GRUNTS]

Don't you dare get in that minivan.

- Do not.
- [JEFF] Shauna, don't.

I've been hanging out with this guy,

and I might have mentioned
that you had an affair.

Shauna just wanted us to think
that she was f*cking Randy

so that she wouldn't think
that she was f*cking Adam.

Which means the kid
intentionally gave you bad info.

[TRAVIS] You okay, man?

You seem weird.

I'm gonna live how I want to.

How I know I'm meant to.

[CRYSTAL] You're the
reason we never got rescued?

[SCREAMS]

[MISTY WHIMPERING]

Why do you want to up your meds?

[LOTTIE] I started having visions
for the first time in decades.

Travis said that you were
right about something.

[SLURRING] Travis, we
brought it back with us.

[LISA] Do you really
think I can keep him alive?

I think that fish is
gonna survive the night.

Do you still want to k*ll yourself?

- Not today.
- I think we found her.

We're here to rescue you.

Lottie sent some people for me.

So you and your Hardy Boy can go home.

Adam Martin? You probably k*lled him.

[MISTY] This? You and me,
whatever this is, it's over.

I want to join.

[NATALIE] Why would you put that
creepy symbol on a baby blanket?

- What the f*ck, Lottie?
- What happened?

She was whispering
weird sh*t to my baby.

You're supposed to be on
my side, not Team Lottie.

Is she in labor?

[SCREAMS]

[CALM, RETRO MUSIC]

[NARRATOR] During gestation,
the fetus receives oxygen

and vital nutrients
via the blood vessels

in the umbilical cord, which
attaches to the placenta.

[STUDENT ] Ew, gross.

[STUDENT ] Why are we watching this?

Guys.

Come on, you got to learn this.

[NARRATOR] In this fetus,
androgens have initiated

the development of a
phallus and scrotum.

[LAUGHS] Oh, man, is that his d*ck?

Let's hope he's a grower. Right, Jeff?

Dude, look at it.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure those
are his balls, dumbass.

- Whatever.
- As labor approaches...

Anybody want this? It's
way too small for me.

Magnums all day, baby.

Oh, gosh, Randy, I mean,

if these are really too small for you,

then you should probably see
a doctor about that thing.

You guys. Shh.

Okay? This is important.

[NARRATOR] ... active
labor is signaled by

the rupture of the amniotic sac

and the onset of powerful
uterine contractions.

These contractions will push
the fetus through the birth canal

- and grow stronger as labor progresses.
- [JEFF] Shauna,

I can't stop thinking
about how you nailed

that tutoring session earlier.

You should teach me again sometime.

[STUDENT ] Why did Jeff
pass a note to Shauna?

- [STUDENT SHUSHES]
- [WOMAN ON VIDEO SCREAMS]

- [ALL OOHING, GASPING]
- [BABY CRYING OVER VIDEO]

[NARRATOR] The infant's
lungs will fill with air,

signaled by a cry.

Poppies, Jeff. Jackie likes poppies.

[NARRATOR] However, labor
continues until the placenta

and amniotic materials

- are expelled...
- [DOOR OPENS]

- [DOOR CLOSES]
- Okay.

Does, uh...

anyone have any questions?

Yes, Misty?

So, how much blood is there, on average?

Are we forgetting something?

- [PHONE CHIMES]
- [SIGHS]

- Wait.
- Ah. Ah, ah, ah.

No, but that could be important.

Misty, you're what's important.

Charlotte will help you see that.

What about emergencies, like, um,

a heart att*ck or-or...
[SCOFFS] ... a fire?

Uh, there's a landline in the kitchen,

but it's not for social calls.

Trust me.

I've been where you are.

It's not easy at first.

But our phones keep us c*ptive

Oh. Charlotte.

- Uh, this is...
- Misty?

Hello, Charlotte.

Leave us.

[DARK, SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]]

I thought you'd be
more excited to see me.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to retrieve my friend Natalie

from a kidnapping that's
looking more and more

like a good old-fashioned brainwashing.

So I think the more salient question is:

What are you doing here?

What is all this?

We are a community

of love and spiritual growth.

And I help people heal from past trauma,

so they'll stop running from themselves.

Look, I don't care if you're
running a cult here or whatever.

Just give me Natalie
and I won't call the IRS

about what I assume is
your routine tax evasion.

[LOTTIE] We saved her.

- She tried to k*ll herself.
- [SCOFFS]

I don't believe that.

You two aren't even friends.

Oh.

Oh.

[INHALES]

Can you stay a while?

What, here? [CHUCKLES]

No. I'm... [SCOFFS]

No, it could be helpful for Natalie.

And for you, too.

I understand. Um...

Maybe later this week?

Oh, now?

[SIGHS] Okay. I guess
we'll be right down.

[SIGHS]

What's going on?

Well, that was Kevyn Tan.

He wants us to come down to the
police station for questioning.

- Today.
- All right. [CLEARS THROAT] Hey.

I got your back, baby. Right?

Yeah, thanks, honey, but, um...

"us" is actually...

- me and Callie.
- [METAL CLANGS]

f*ck! This is exactly what
I was afraid of, Shauna.

You dragged Callie into this thing

- and now she's a part of our mess.
- I didn't "drag" Callie into anything.

She's the one who decided
to act out by dating a cop.

Okay, we were just hanging out.

It honestly would've been better
if you just had sex with him.

- Shauna!
- Wow, Mom.

What? If she had, then none of the stuff

she told him about me
would be admissible.

That's all I'm saying.

Should we just go and
get this over with?

Why the f*ck is this taking so long?

[SHAUNA SCREAMING]

[MARI] Should we, like, boil water?

That's a thing people do, right?

[AKILAH] Yeah. Yeah, that's a good idea.

- We need to keep things clean.
- [SCREAMING]

[SHARP RINGING]

[NATALIE] Uh, these
are contractions, right?

Should we be timing
them or something? I...

[GEN] Yeah, that last one
was just over a minute.

Is-is that long or short?

Misty! Should I be timing
the in-between or no?

Uh, I-I don't know,
I just, I-I need to...

[AKILAH] Okay, I think when
they're this regular and intense,

she's in labor labor and
the baby is actually coming.

Okay, so it should be over soon?

Maybe, but my sister's
labor was a day and a half.

No. No, I can't take this for
a day and a half, Tai. I can't.

Yes, you can, Shauna. You
can f*cking do anything.

[AKILAH] Of course you can do it.

And we're right here
to help. Right, Misty?

What do you need from me?

Um... Hand.

Maybe, uh, we can...

we can share our hopes with each other?

Wilderness, I hope Shauna doesn't die.

Why the f*ck... Why would you say die?

- Die?
- You're not gonna die.

- You're not gonna die.
- [OVERLAPPING CHATTER]

You're not gonna die,
you're not gonna die.

Shauna, everything's gonna be okay.

It's gonna be okay.

Just let your pain
open you to this moment.

[TAISSA] What the f... ?

I know you're trying to be helpful,

but she could really use some space.

[SCREAMS]

This is hard enough already.

[WHISPERS] Go.

- Hey, Natalie?
- [g*nsh*t]

Oh, God. [PANTING]

[LISA] Natalie, can I talk to you?

Look, I don't know
what happened last night

- between you and Charlotte, but...
- You should get the hell away from me.

What?

I'm poison.

I ruin people.

I k*lled my best friend.

The only person...

I loved.

The only person who knew me.

Was that Travis?

This whole time, I was
saying it was Lottie,

and it was m-my fault, 'cause I...

I made him believe... I told him...

No. No, no.

It's never anyone else's fault, Natalie.

You know that.

There was nothing that you
could've said to Travis.

It was something that
was already in him.

[SOFT, CONTEMPLATIVE MUSIC]]

Well, that something
that was in him is in me.

We saw so much...

... we did so much
f*cked-up sh*t out there.

And, yeah, maybe it was to survive.

[DARK, EERIE MUSIC]

Maybe.

But I don't think we deserved to.

[SOFT ROCK MUSIC PLAYING FAINTLY]

Why didn't you wake me up, Van?

Oh.

What's wrong? Did something happen?

Something always does with you, huh?

Did you talk to her? What did she say?

- I mean, what did I say?
- [SIGHS]

You said, "This isn't
where we're supposed to be."

That's it?

Yeah, you also tried to kiss me.

[EXHALES] Oh, my God.

I am so sorry.

I never would've... Wait.

I said "we"? Who's "we"?

[SCOFFS] Yeah, don't look at me, Tai.

Maybe your family?

Or your multiple personalities?

Isn't there a chance it could be us?

Right? You and me?

[SCOFFS] No.

No. f*ck that.

Look, I-I told you what you said,

or what she said, or whoever.

So, t-that's as far as this can go.

I got to take care of myself, too, okay?

Of course. I-I would never...

[VAN SIGHS]

You're married, Taissa.
There's no "us" anymore.

Of course. I know that. You're right.

I'm so sorry.

- Maybe I should go.
- Listen, I got to open the store,

but if you want to make
yourself useful, you could, um,

reshelve some of these tapes.

Okay.

Anything.

Uh, it's still happening.

[PSYCHIATRIST] The visions?

Yeah, not just the visions.
It's also this, um...

... uh, feeling.

Even about things I know are
right in front of me. It's...

It's like it's-it's
pointing me toward...

... back then.

Toward your past.

As I mentioned before,
it's not uncommon for people

whose psychoses are controlled to feel

anxiety about their symptoms returning.

Is it possible your fear of the past

might be a fear of your illness?

No.

No, that's the problem.

I'm not worried that I'm ill.

I'm worried that I've never been ill.

And that's why all of this is happening.

Uh, Travis coming, Natalie and
now Misty's here, too. It's like...

It's like It sent them here...

to show me.

To show you what?

That It was real.

[DARK, EERIE MUSIC]

And that I, I wasn't the only
one who felt It out there.

It was all of us. It was a part of us.

What is "It," Lottie?

The power of that place.

The god of that place.

We did...

... terrible things in Its name.

And I thought that,

when we were rescued, that we
left It there, but now I realize...

... we brought It back with us.

[MAN] Let it out.

We're here for you.

No! [CRYING]

Lottie is no longer in
a mental institution.

She's actually, uh, running
a wellness center upstate

and Natalie and Misty are there,

and actually I'm on
my way there right now.

With... Van.

Hi, Jeff!

- I just thought she should know.
- Oh.

Okay. Yeah, I'll-I'll-I'll
make sure she gets the message.

- Hi, Van...
- [LINE BEEPING]

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

[QUIET, GENTLE MUSIC]

[MISTY] She was just the most
incredible athlete, and dresser.

No, she always was just
such a talent... [GASPS]

I-I'll see you later?

Okay.

Finally.

Why did you come back here?

Well, when I spoke to you
yesterday, you... [SCOFFS]

... really didn't seem like yourself.

So I wanted to find out
exactly what was going on.

You still seem a little weird.

So does Lottie, for that matter.

But... [SCOFFS] You
know. What's new, right?

But-but I have to say,

having been here, I... [EXHALES]

... totally get why
you're into this place.

Knowing Lottie...

basically makes us, like, celebrities.

And I was a little disturbed
at first by the crying,

but, I mean, it must
be good for you, right?

Look at how happy everyone is.

What happened to that guy you were with?

Oh. [SCOFFS]

Well, he went home.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

What?

We're all like this.

Aren't we?

[CRYING]

[GENTLE MUSIC]

Please stop crying.

I know you're hungry. I'm
trying to feed you, but...

[BABY CRYING]

Come on.

[BABY GRUNTS]

[BABY CRYING]

Come on! Why won't this work?

Your kid doesn't like
you too much, does she?

I guess not, if she was dating
you to get under my skin.

[CHUCKLES]

[KEVYN] Look, Callie, I,
uh, I know you don't me

but, uh, your mom and I,

we go way back.

So you have to believe me
when I say I am not happy

that either of you are here.

Your mom, she might
be in a lot of trouble.

But you don't have to go down with her.

I'd like to know if I'm
being accused of a crime.

And I'd like to know
why a bored housewife

would fake-hookup with
her husband's best friend,

after asking her only daughter

to lie to law enforcement.

Have you met my daughter?

I didn't ask her to do anything.

She does whatever the f*ck she wants.

What she wants is to talk about you.

In a bar.

To a total stranger.

You really did a number on her.

I know you care about your mom.

And you probably think you're
doing her a favor by lying for her.

But the way I see it,

she's using you.

You see, Callie,

you are your own person.

And you do not have to be like your mom.

So you're accusing me of...

what?

Being a bad mom?

Not officially.

But sure.

For starters, let's say that I am.

Well, aren't you a f*cking genius?

I never even wanted to be a mom.

[SIGHS]

In fact...

I did not sta...

start out a bad person.

But in case you haven't noticed,

life doesn't tend to turn
out the way you think it will.

You have a kid that you...

you don't want...

to save a marriage that
you got into out of...

... guilt and-and shame. And...

and you just...

... you can't really let
yourself love either of them.

But, of course, you do.

You-you love them despite yourself.

You're just incredibly bad at it.

So we are talking about an affair.

[GROANS] Yes, of course we're
talking about a g*dd*mn affair.

It's just...

Yeah, it's just basically what you said.

I'm...

a bored housewife.

I got into a fender-bender and...

I had an affair with him

that made me feel young again

for five f*cking minutes,

and now not only is the hot part over,

but I'm left sitting here

having to defend myself

to some smug little douche
who my daughter hit on

because she was mad
at me for cheating on

her poor, innocent dad, so

if that's what you're
playing gotcha over,

arrest me already.

But leave my kid out of it.

Well done.

Oh, God.

So...

... when's the last
time you saw Adam Martin?

[SNIFFLING]

Oh.

Here.

[CRYING] I feel so stupid.

You're not stupid at all.

I was a virgin.

And Jay...

he, he told me he loved me.

But really all he wanted
was to get at my mom.

[EXHALES] Oh, Jesus.

No, Callie.

- Jay, you mean, uh... ?
- Officer Saracusa.

Officer Saracusa knows
the rules, Callie.

[SCOFFS]

You know making false statements

to the police is a chargeable offense?

Then f*cking charge me.

We'll see who a jury believes.

Especially when they ask me to
describe his weird-ass balls.

[WOMAN HUMMING "FRERE JACQUES"]

[BABY COOING]

[HUMMING CONTINUES]

What the f*ck are you doing?

The baby's hungry.

You aren't producing milk.

We need to feed.

What did you just say?

I said he needs to feed.

Give him back to me.

He is mine!

Give him back.

[TENSE MUSIC]

You'll understand soon enough.

[BABY FUSSES QUIETLY]

[DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]

[SLURPING]

Okay.

How'd it go?

Um, I told them I was
sleeping with Adam.

[SPITTING] What?

- Why?!
- I don't know, Jeff.

- It just came out...
- Jesus!

You are driving around with that thing?

Yes?

[LAUGHS]

What if they searched our car?

I am really worried about you.

You are, like, out of control, Shauna.

Yeah, you think?!

[SHAUNA SNIFFLES]

Okay, I got a call while you were...

Well, you got a call, actually,

while you were in
there, and it was Taissa.

And she called because, evidently,

your, uh, your old pal,
Lottie, she's running

some kind of wellness center upstate.

No. I don't...

I thought... I thought Lottie was, um,

barely coherent.

What? What is the... Wha...

Why are you telling me this?

Because Tai's going there.

And Misty and Natalie,
they're already there.

I think you should go, too.

Jeff, that's ridiculous.

- I can't just...
- Shauna, you need to leave.

I mean, the longer that you
stay here, the more you are

screwing any chance we have
to get out of this thing.

Okay.

Mom. I used your idea,

and I'm pretty sure they're
scared shitless now, so...

Oh, no. What happened?

f*ck, are we going to jail?

- Of course not.
- [JEFF] No.

But if your mom has
any sense left at all,

she's gonna take a little trip.

[MELLOW MUSIC]

You'll thank me later.

It's all a g*dd*mn prison anyway.

g*dd*mn it.

[BABY CRYING]

[BABY SNUFFLES]

Look, I'm sorry I didn't
think I wanted you.

[SHAUNA SNIFFLES]

I guess you probably knew that.

But it was all really complicated.

I'll tell you all about it someday.

Maybe you'll understand.

[SNIFFLING] Maybe you won't.

The point is, I...

I was wrong.

And I love you so, so much.

And I can't wait to see...

who you become,

where you'll go, what you'll do.

But it all depends on this.

On us.

Figuring this out.

It's you and me, kid.

It's you and me against the whole world.

So, please, just...

please. [SNIFFLES]

Come on.

[SNIFFLES] Come on, please.

Come on.

[EXHALES SHAKILY]

Oh, my God. Oh, my God!

Oh, my God, yes, yes, yes!

Yes, that's it. Drink up, drink up.

Drink up, drink up. Drink up. Yes.

I love you so much.

Yes.

[DOOR OPENS]

[SNIFFLES]

Are you okay?

Brought you some more tea.

Wait, is he... ?

Wow. What a miracle.

- I'm gonna go tell the others.
- Uh, no. Not yet.

I kind of just want to
have this moment for myself.

[NATALIE] Yeah, but...

Okay.

[FLOORBOARD CREAKS]

- [DOOR CLOSES]
- [SNIFFLES]

[LAUGHS]

It's you and me, kid.

[VAN] All right, last
chance to turn around.

- We could go to IHOP.
- I have to go in.

I can't keep doing what I'm doing.

All right.

If you see any barrels of
Kool-Aid powder in there,

- consider me on call for an extraction.
- [CHUCKLES]

Deal.

Oh, my God, that was Shauna.

- [LIVELY CHATTER]
- [BIRDS SINGING]

What's happening?

[MAN] Looks like we have visitors.

[MISTY GASPS]

Natalie.

Tai!

Keep your eyes peeled for
the black and white Nikes.

You came.

Van?

Uh, wait, whoa, are
you guys back together?

No, no, no, Van's not even staying.

She's just dropping me off. Right, Van?

Van?

[OMINOUS MUSIC]

[GIRLS HUMMING IN DISTANCE]

[HUMMING CONTINUES]

[EXHALES]

[EERIE MUSIC]

[QUIETLY] Wha...

What the f*ck?

Tai?

Van?

[GIRLS HUMMING]

Where's my baby?

[WOMEN SINGING EERILY]

No!

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

What did you do? What did you do?

- [ALL SHUSHING]
- What did you do?

Where is he? What did you do?

What did you do? What did you do?

You lost a lot of blood
and you were unconscious.

We thought we lost you.

What? Where is he?

Why are you lying? Why are
you lying? Where is my baby?

Tai, where is my baby? Where is he?

I'm sorry, Shauna, I'm sorry. I'm...

He didn't make it, Shauna.

No...

No, no.

No, he was...

No, he...

No, he was, he was alive.

No, he was alive! I held him.

I held him, Tai. He was alive!

He was alive and I held him! I...

I tried to feed him.

And then I finally fed
him and he was crying.

He was cry... [STAMMERS]

I-I fed him.

I fed him... I fed him.

[TAISSA] I'm sorry...

No, no...

No!

He was crying. [STAMMERS]

I can still hear him crying.

He's still crying. I can
still hear him crying.

He's hungry. Don't you hear him crying?

Don't you hear him crying?
Can't you hear him crying?

- Why can't you hear him cry?
- [SHUSHING]

- Why can't you hear him cry?
- It's okay. It's okay.

No, no! Why can't you hear him crying?!

Why can't you hear him?

Why can't you hear him crying?

[SOBBING]

Why can't you hear him?

Why can't you hear him crying?

Why can't you hear him?

Why can't you hear him? [SOBBING]

Why can't you hear him cry?
