[SINGER VOCALIZING]

I'm really enjoying my vacation.

[LAUGHTER]

Who was that cutie you were talking to?

ALISON: Tonight is my last night.

I was hoping we could

do something special.

CLAIRE: Mama?

What is it, sweetie?

Alison didn't come home last night.

DETECTIVE: Multiple witnesses saw Alison

at the bar last night

with two young, local men.

We have determined the

death of Alison Thomas

was an accident.

But this was not an accident.

And everyone knows it.

CLAIRE: My sister's m*rder

was headline news for years.

Sometimes it feels like

the whole world knows more than I do.

SUNITA: You need to get some help,

because at this point,

you've become a stalker.

CLAIRE: I need to keep doing this.

For her.

[FOOTSTEPS RUNNING, PERSON PANTING]

CLAIRE: Alison didn't

come home last night.

Oh, God, I'm sorry. Please.

I'm so sorry. [PANTING]

Our Father, who art in

Thy kingdom come. [INDISTINCT CHATTER]

Thy will be done on

Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,

and forgive us our trespasses

as we forgive those

[CLEARS THROAT]

Can I buy you a drink?

I mean, sure. I like free things.

What'll you have?

Uh, can I have another one

of these masterpieces, please?

- And he'll have one, too.

- BARTENDER: You got it.

I'm Emily.

Trev.

And, uh, what do you do, Emily?

I'm an editor environmental

documentaries, mostly.

Ah, a do-gooder.

- Sometimes.

- [CHUCKLES]

And let me guess you're a consultant?

I mean, the suit, the

bespoke tie at half-mast

mourning the end of another

satisfying day consulting.

Plus, the Brecht Consulting

bag kind of gave it away.

I see. You think I'm a total douche.

No, not at all.

Good people can work at

problematic companies.

You know, change from

within and whatnot.

Josh, over here.

Did we make a new friend again?

This is Trev.

He works at Brecht,

but he's pretty sure

he's one of the good ones.

- JOSH: Oh.

- This is my boyfriend, Josh.

He's a civil rights lawyer,

so he's definitely one of the good ones.

Watch out for that one.

Yes. Beware of women with opinions.



Should we go home and

rechristen our apartment?

I'd love to, but I got

to get back to the office.

- No.

- Why don't I walk you home?

I mean, I thought you said

Flatbush was totally safe.

All right, you caught me. I still worry.

Well, I'll be fine.

- JOSH: Mm-hmm?

- Mm-hmm.

Okay.

[SOFT TENSE MUSIC]



PERSON: Ooh, I see you looking, mama.

Come on. Come on.

You know you want some of this. Come on.

CHILD: He started it!

PERSON: See, their

sister's being naughty.

BRETT: 200 bucks for shuttle service.

I mean, is it too much to ask

for it to be here when we arrive?

It's like that everywhere

in the Caribbean.

- Island time, they call it.

- Oh, my God, Dad.

MIA: Darien is lovely.

We considered that when

we were leaving the city.

We're in White Plains.

JAMIE: Oh. And those are your girls?

Yes. This is Alison.

She's on break from college.

Freshman at Princeton.

- Princeton?

- MIA: Yeah.

- Good for you.

- BILL: And she's a superstar

swim team, tennis team,

graduated high school

second in her class.

Plus, I have a completely

overblown sense of self-worth

due to my incredibly doting parents.

And how old are you, sweetheart?

It's okay. This is Clairey.

She's seven.

She's a little bit shy.

I wish ours could be more shy.

I'm not the one who fed them

two packs of candy on the plane, Brett.

- Oh, great!

- [OVERLAPPING CHATTER]

I guess we'll see you there.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]



MIA: I spy with my little eye

something blue.

The sky. Too easy, Mama.

Ah. I spy

something with feathers.

Clairey, no, remember

what we talked about?

No arm writing. You

spell it in your mind.

Mom, leave her alone.

DRIVER: [MUTTERING INDISTINCTLY]

[HORNS HONKING]

[ENGINE SPUTTERING]

I spy a girl.

Why'd she do that?

Clairey, did you know

that 2 billion people,

which is more than a

third of humans on Earth,

live on less than $2 a day?

She's seven, Al.

Does she really need to know that?

I don't think seven's too young to learn

about the hypocrisy of our lifestyle.

I'm warning you. Enough.

ALISON: Hypocrisy, Clairey,

is when you say you feel a certain way,

but your actions

directly contradict that.

Kind of like how Mom and Dad

say they care about poverty,

but instead of doing anything about it,

they plan a luxury vacation on an island

where people don't even have

solid roofs over their heads.

Alison

DRIVER: Miss, on our island,

the people are well fed and happy.

MIA: You have to excuse my daughter.

She's in her first year of college

and reading a bunch of Toni Morrison.

Her heart's in the right

place. She's just

a little confused.

[UPBEAT TROPICAL MUSIC]



PERSON: Bonjour. Welcome, welcome.

EDWIN: Hello.

Oh, my God.

Careful.

EDWIN: Welcome.

Welcome to Indigo Bay.

Hello.

Thanks. This is beautiful.

The punch is made

with fresh guava, miss.

Trust me, you'll like it.



Please go relax.

You must not miss the sunset.

I shall take care of your bags

and see that you are all checked in.



- There's a pool.

- I know.

You want to go look?

Okay. Have a good one. Thank you.

Yes. My big man, Gogo.

How's it hanging, boy?

Guess who just got a $20 tip.

You're sh1tting me. From who?

Those anti-men I took to their room.

He did not even look at the bill.

He just want to get

down to doing the nasty

with he husband, I guess.

Oh, man, we love them

American anti-men.

Mm. What are you doing tonight?

Damian's got that football game.

I cannot tonight. Don't start.

We can't all be free and easy, Edwin.

EDWIN: Yeah, by choice,

Goges. By choice, man.

Admit that this resort is incredible.

Admit that you'd rather be in paradise

- Say "goodbye."

- BOTH: Bye.

- JOSH: Peanut punch?

- EMILY: No.

- JOSH: I think we need it.

- EMILY: No.

We're not getting that.

JOSH: Good source of protein.

Good source of calcium.

Oh. Hey.

Hey, have you seen that

old man in the building,

wears the NASCAR hat

with the little dog?

Oh, Jefe? That dog's an assh*le.

Yeah, right?

Never met an assh*le dog before.

- Thanks, man.

- EMILY: Thank you.

JOSH: All right. Have a good one.

EMILY: Yeah, I want him to like us.

JOSH: Maybe we should buy

him some treats or something.

Bribe him into loving us. I'm

determined to win him over.

- Emily, you okay?

- Yeah.

Yeah, I just haven't seen

that soda since the island.

Yeah, no sh*t. So are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine. It was just a memory.

JOSH: I know you said

you'd be fine here,

but if it's too much, we

can move somewhere else.

I just want you to feel safe

Josh, stop. I'm not freaking out, okay?

It was a memory, a good memory.

That's soda's delish.

Stop.

- Well

- I would tell you. I promise.

Look, I love Flatbush.

I love our apartment.

- [DOG BARKING]

[DISTANT SIREN WAILING]

[TROPICAL MUSIC]



This is so nice.



- Mama

- MIA: Yeah, Clairey?

Where's Alison?

Can you go check and

make sure she's okay?

MIA: Sweetie, I know you're so excited

to play with your sister, but

teenagers like to sleep in.

Can I get a tour of your sandcastle?

Yeah?



Wow.

That's the moat.

That's the tower where the

princess lives all alone.

BILL: Alone? Why?

Her parents went to a party

and left her with a babysitter.

She was witch, so the

princess k*lled her.

Fantastic.

You keep on

MIA: I know. I know. I saw it.

We're working on it, okay?

Honey, it's a process.

You don't stop something

like that overnight, right?

People are looking at her.

MIA: No, they're not.

DANA: Interesting how different

she is from her sister.

What sister?

Come on.

You didn't notice the

sumptuous 18-year-old

at dinner last night?

I only have eyes for you, dear.

And in general, I don't ogle children.

Sorry. It's these hormones.

They're making me crazy.

EDWIN: Look at our island,

pulling out she most

beautiful day for you.

What can I be getting you this morning?

Nothing for me, thanks.

ETHAN: Yeah, I'll get

another, uh, rum punch.

Uh, but do me a favor

and tell your, uh

tell your bros not to water

it down this time, okay?

[LAUGHS]

I assure you,

no drinks are watered

down at Indigo Bay.

Thank you.

ETHAN: No drinks are watered down.

[LAUGHS]

- BILL: There you are.

- MIA: Hi. Morning, sweetie.

BILL: How about a family swim?

Start the day off right?

ALISON: Pass. I just woke up.

Do you have makeup on?

No. I just showered.

I was disgusting.

Dad, I'll still swim with you later.

Hey, Clairey. Come here.

- I made a sandcastle.

- You did?

I can tell, 'cause you're all sandy.

Hello.

- BILL: Hey.

- Hello.

You have not yet met my mate Gogo.

Just this morning I said,

"Gogo, you must meet the Thomases.

Good people from the land West Chester."

[LAUGHS]

EDWIN: We have a few excursions today.

I recommend highly the snorkeling trip

or the hike on Faraway Cay.

MIA: How far is Faraway Cay?

EDWIN: Ironically, she

is only 500 meters away.

- [CHUCKLES]

- EDWIN: It's a magical place

with a big, beautiful

waterfall at her center.

But the trip is only for the very brave.

Some say it is haunted.

People be vanishing

from there all the time.

Some have seen a long-haired woman,

eight foot tall with

goat hooves for feet.

They say she curses the sinners

and and changes they to goats.

Oh, that sounds fun. We should go.

Desmond, our excursions guide,

will book everything you need.

CLAIRE: I don't want to go.

I don't like to go either, miss.

We also have a volleyball

match this afternoon.

Care to join us?

MIA: Oh, Al, you'd love that.

Ah, excellent.

May we count you in, miss?

Maybe.

More of a sunbather, are we?

[SOFT MUSIC]



He's a great guy.

MIA: So friendly.

And make them fries

extra crispy, he say.

We gonna lime hard tonight, mate.

Go to Paulette's, dance,

them "extra crispies."

- GOGO: Can't.

I can't. Sara already vex with me.

Oh, she not let you

You know, it's bullshit.

GOGO: She need me to mind Clive Jr.

ALISON: Braver.

Now hop in that bed.

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.

Good girl.

Go to sleep, okay?

I'll be back in an hour.

Where are you going?

Out. You'll be fine.

CLAIRE: Please don't go, Alison.

I'm scared.

ALISON: Of what?

Of the long-haired woman

with the hooves for feet.

ALISON: There's nothing to be scared of.

Mom and Dad are right next door.

Just don't tell them I left, okay?

Josh

I'm sorry.

I had a fight with Sunita.

I lost my phone, and

I was in a shitty mood.

And I shouldn't have

taken it out on you.

Okay.

Oh, this was with

your posters and stuff.

I wasn't sure where you wanted it.

No, it's perfect right there.

[SOFT MUSIC]

But I am working on them.



You deserve the greatest

girlfriend in the world.
