01x03 - Seeing Double

Post by bunniefuu »

That's why you're bleeding.

You're sick, ain't you, girl?

[buzzer rings]

[Akin laughs]

Back again so soon?

Don't tell me, you miss me?

Things have changed.

[Akin] What are you talking about?

There's something I need you to find out.

I need to know
where the statue was created.

The place it was made.

-It's very important.
-Why?

Just is.

All right.

Shouldn't be a problem.

Want to tell me
why you didn't just pick up the phone?

Because there's something else
I need you to do.

What's that?

I need you to get rid of the girl
and anyone she's working with.

Fine.

It's going to cost you, though.

Don't care. Just don't screw it up.

All this fuss
over some shitty little statue.

I mean, it can't be worth that much.
What am I missing?

[opening theme music plays]

[woman humming]

[whispering] She looks familiar.

Wait a second. Isn't that you?

-Who, me?
-Yeah!

No, of course not.

Oh, no.

[gasps] Marcus?

You're awake! Are you hungry?

I've made your favourite.

Come, sit down!

Let's have something to drink.

Oh, my God!

Erm, Dineo, I'm really sorry.

No, no, no, no.
It's... It's okay. It's fine.

We've spent the last few days together
so it's perfectly natural.

Is it? Because...

I spent the last decade with you
and you didn't dream of me.

You're not helping, okay?

After breakfast, we can
make passionate love for six minutes

and then I'll clean the house
and then we can do chemistry together.

-[laughs]
-No, erm...

Dreams are so weird.

I have no idea
why she's saying all of that.

[Lloyd] Mm, hmm.

Hi.

How are you doing?

I think she is aware of us, but...

she's only focused on you.

Aren't you hungry?

Should we make love, instead?

I'm wearing your favourite.

Oh, oh, no. No, no, no, no, no.

-Er, oh, God.
-[Dineo] Oh.

Wow! Dude, it... it's chemistry themed.

Yeah, I can see that.
Just... don't look, please.

Oh, yeah. Okay... Erm...

Marcus, can you tell her to put on a gown

and go clean
so that we can figure this out?

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
I think it would be easier

-for her to clean without the gown.
-Lloyd. Shut up.

-Okay.
-Please.

-Wow.
-Thank you.

Hey. You know what?
Actually, you can just put that back on.

Erm... and I would really appreciate it
if maybe you cleaned the house now.

You can start in the bedrooms.

Nothing would make me happier.

[laughs]

[kissing sound]

I'm not gonna lie.

This is definitely better than the zombie.

Fun!

[gasps]

Mmm.

[humming]

Oh.

God! You know what?

She really knows how to fry some bacon.

-I vote we keep her.
-We are not keeping her.

No, of course not.

But what are we going to do because I...

I really don't want to hurt her.

Also, what if
you guys are, like, connected?

Maybe if she gets hurt, so do you.

No, I doubt that's how it works.

Do you remember anything from the dream?

No. But I do remember being happy.

Yeah. Yeah, I'm sure.

But... something went wrong.

I'm just not sure what.

Okay, okay.
Marcus has a yellow belt.

What if we tie her up and interrogate her?

Why would we interrogate her?

I don't know.

-Maybe she knows something.
-We should drug her.

Knock her out.

It'll buy us some time.

Yes!

[Marcus] Okay, yeah.

Yeah. Do you have anything
that we can use?

No... but my groundskeeper has
a tranquilliser g*n.

Okay.

Wait. Do you guys have
predators in the area?

Wolves.

[laughs]

Mm.

Oh, Marcus.

[sniffs] Mm.

[gasps]

Oh.

[giggles]

Oh!

[yelps excitedly]

[giggles excitedly]

[man] So now, gents, er...

these are for small animals, right?

Er, animals like your... impalas,

warthogs, hyenas, right?

And the green ones,

these are only for elephants.

That's, er... That's Bezantanin, right?

Yes.

Yeah, nasty stuff.

-Just one drop can k*ll you.
-Yeah.

What do you guys need it for?

-Er, we...
-Oh, it's... it's for me.

Yeah, I, er, moved onto a farm

and sort of having some problems
with wolves.

-Wolves?
-Yeah.

Just keep
attacking the sheep and I'm like...

We don't have any wolves here.

[soft music]

[tense music]

Wild dogs. He means wild dogs.

Sorry, he's from the city
so he doesn't really...

Oh... wild dogs.

Yeah.

Right.

These ones will work.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you. You can just
give them to Marcus. Marcus...

-Oh.
-He'll be doing the sh**ting.

-Er, you can just... give me the g*n.
-Yeah. Maybe that's a good idea.

Thank you, Z.

[in Tswana] Pleasure.

[Marcus, in English] Thank you.

[Lloyd] Thanks, Z.

[in Tswana] Sure.

[in Spanish] Adios.

[tense music plays]

[in English] I do, Marcus.

I do.

[in Tswana]
How could you do this to me, Marcus?

How could you?

[in English]
How could you do this to me, Marcus?

How could you do this to me?

Okay. So we dart her,
she goes down for a few hours

and then we come up with a plan.

That should be easy enough.

-Hmm. I'm not so sure about that.
-Why not?

Well, it's gonna take a while
for the tranquilliser to work.

She's not exactly gonna be happy with us.

Okay, but... but it's three against one.

We should be fine, right?

Right, but...

she has two black belts and...

some serious weapons training.

What? Seriously?

I feel embarrassed.

[Dineo's double yelling] Marcus!

Marcus!

Oh, she does not sound happy.

Marcus!

Oh, my God, she's a bridezilla.

Marcus!

-Where'd she get the dress?
-It was my mother's.

Who is she?

Dineo, just take it easy, okay?

[in Tswana] Who are you talking about?

Who do you think
I'm talking about, Marcus?

[cries]

[screams]

Erm...

Dineo, you might want
to take another look.

[in English] This is you.

That's not me.

[in Tswana] Do you think I'm an idiot?

[in English] You think I'm crazy, Marcus?

-Yes.
-No. No. No!

Erm... Look, maybe just...
put the bow down and we can talk.

He's right.
There's nothing to be upset about.

Wait a minute.

It's you.

You're the one
who's trying to steal my Marcus!

[screams]

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

Erm, listen. You're right, okay?

You're absolutely right. She is...

She is the person in the photo
but it's not my photo.

Okay? It's, er, it's actually Lloyd's.

I'm sorry, what now?

Yes, Lloyd.
Tell her the truth about your photo.

Yeah.

Yeah, this is totally mine.

Erm... this is my girlfriend.

We're... super in love.

Really? How'd you meet?

Meet? Erm...

Yeah, we were just... both...

drug addicts.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
And... one day we were, like,

lying in a gutter

fighting, erm...

over those dirty needles.

And then our eyes locked and...

that was it for me. For both of us.

I was hooked.

Show me. Kiss her.

[Lloyd] Yeah. Of course.

-[Marcus] Er...
-Yeah, we kiss... we kiss all the time.

Yeah.

Her mouth's like
my old crack pipe, you know, so...

Er, ready for some loving...

-baby?
-Uh-huh.

Okay.

[gasps]

I knew you were lying!

[yells]

Run! Go, go, go, go, go, go!

[screams]

[grunts]

[Lloyd] God! Ahh!

-[Marcus] Lloyd?
-[Lloyd grunts]

[screaming]

Sorry, sorry!

-We need to get to the car.
-[Lloyd] I can't... I can't.

I think I'm dying.
Everything's going dark.

You're not dying, Lloyd.
You're just in the shade.

[screams]

Marcus!

She's gone. Let's go.

Okay. Okay, ready?

[Lloyd groans]

-[Marcus] Sorry, sorry!
-[Lloyd] I think I'm paralysed.

[Marcus] You're walking.

[Lloyd groans]

-[Marcus] Sorry.
-Don't touch the arrow!

-Sorry, sorry, buddy. Just...
-[groans]

[Marcus] All right.

[dramatic music plays]

-[Lloyd groans]
-[Marcus] Are you good?

-Yeah.
-[Marcus] Let's go, let's go.

Ow!

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

How deep is it?

-[engine starts]
-Er, Dineo...

[screams]

Marcus!

[dramatic music plays]

[Lloyd screaming]

It's burning! It's really burning.

How bad is it?
Just tell me the truth.

-Dude, calm down. It's not that bad.
-[Lloyd] Ah!

It feels like it's gone right through me.

What if it's gone through my p*nis?

What if I have a p*nis kebab? Oh!

[screams]

Marcus!

-sh*t.
-What? What's going on?

She must have hit the radiator.

We're not gonna make it to the road.

So... So what do we do now?

Er...

-I've an idea.
-[groans]

[whimpering]

[engine stops]

[indistinct chatter]

-[groaning]
-[Marcus] Sorry.

Ah, ah! Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
What do we do now?

[Dineo] We're gonna have
to get the arrow out.

-Well, we need a hospital for that.
-There's no time for that.

We don't have a choice.
Lloyd, trust me. Okay?

We have to stop the bleeding.

[Marcus] Is there anything
I can do to help?

Just apply some pressure to the area.

Okay.

[Lloyd] This is such a nightmare.

Erm, is there anything else that I can do?

Dude, are you joking right now?

Apply pressure!

[Marcus] Okay, okay, okay.

Erm... Ready?

[screams]

[Marcus] Sorry. Sorry, sorry.

[engine idling]

Oh, my God, there's so much blood.

Here. Have a bite of this.
I think the sugar will help.

[Lloyd] Uh-uh. I think I'm gonna be sick.

-We're gonna have to cauterise the wound.
-With what?

-With this.
-A fire cr*cker? That is a terrible idea.

No, no, no, no.
It's not a fire cr*cker. It's a flare.

-We just need a heat source.
-This can't be happening.

-This can't be happening.
-Here. Bite down on this.

Wait, don't you have pain K*llers?

There's no time. Lloyd... listen to me.

This is what's gonna happen.

The pain is gonna be so intense

that all the morphine in the world
is not gonna help you.

That's the bad news.

The good news is that your body's
not gonna be able to take it

-so you're gonna go into shock.
-Oh.

Shock. Great!

The smoke from the flare's gonna
reveal our position

so that crazy b*tch can find us.

We're gonna carry you, hide you away,

lead her into a trap...

and then it'll all be over.

Who are you?

[Lloyd moans]

Don't worry, dude. You got this.

[muffled] That's easy for you to say.

[Dineo] Okay.

-Let's go.
-Okay.

Lloyd, we're gonna go on three, okay?

Uh-huh.

-One!
-[screams]

[sizzling]

[Marcus] Ooh.

Er...

Dineo, are you sure
that this is going to work?

She's so obsessed with you,
she won't even see it coming.

Okay.

Okay.

You're incredible, you know that?

No, I'm not.

You're always
one step ahead of everybody else,

whenever there's a problem,
you know exactly what to do.

A flare?
I would have never thought of that.

No, no.
You're wrong about me.

And also, I don't always know what to do.

There's a lot about my life
I wish I could change.

Well... like what?

Doesn't really matter.

Anyway,
you're a much better person than I am.

Lloyd told me about what you did for him.

Putting him through school.

Oh. He...

[in Tswana] It's nothing really.

[in English] You know,
one thing I really regret...

was that we didn't keep in touch.

I've missed you.

I've missed you too.

[panting]

[flies buzzing]

[grunts]

Oh, sh*t.

[Lloyd breathing heavily]

Dineo.

Hey, hey. It's me.

Marcus?

Hey, listen. I am so, so sorry, okay?

You were absolutely right,
she was trying to take me from you.

I knew it. Where is she?

No, no, no. Don't worry.
She's gone, okay? She's gone.

Listen, I should have never let her
get into my head.

I should have never listened to her.

I thought that you were trying to hurt me.

Hurt you?

Marcus, I would never hurt you.

I just want us to be together.

Forever.

[tense music plays]

[laughs]

Just the two of us.

I want the same thing.

Oh. Marcus, we can have that.

I love you.

I've always loved you.

Since the day we met.

Hey, er...
would it be okay if I kissed you?

[scoffs] Of course!

Close your eyes.

[choking]

[coughs]

You... want some? It's peanut brittle.

Er, no, thanks. I'm allergic to peanuts.

Marcus...

Marcus, why?

I'm sorry.

[continues coughing]

Wow.

Good job.

That was really convincing.

Uh-huh.

-Are you all right?
-Yeah, yeah. I'm okay.

-You sure?
-Yes.

It was a good plan.

-We should probably get back to Lloyd.
-Yeah.

[Marcus] Yeah.

[yells]

[panting] She's gone.

She's gone.

I'm glad everyone's fine.

Okay.

You found me, let's go.

[grunts]

Hello, ladies.

How are we?

The boss in?

You know what?
I'm good. Thank you.

You should save it for the tourists.

Fine.

Mm, mm. [claps]

That, too. Delicious.

You give me the recipe, yeah?

Watch them.

[dramatic music plays]

I like what you've done with the place.

[laughs]

This place isn't what you think it is.

You mean, it's not a dark and dirty cave?

It's a spiritual chamber.

Spiritual? Right.

[in Tswana] It's a coming together
of ancient energies.

[in English] Go touch the wall.

Why?

So you can see it.

Fine.

I'll play your game.

Ooh! What the...

What's that?

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

I... I... I see.

It's that sh*t
you're making everyone drink, isn't it?

[in Tswana] Why have you come?

[in English] Erm...

Well, you met
with a friend of mine recently

and she was looking for a statue.

And now she's disappeared.

I need you to tell me
what you told her.

She already has the statue,

and if she's missing...

[in Tswana] ...Baka has her.

[in English] What... What?

Who's Baka? What are you talking about?

I'll show you.

[in Tswana] He can take your soul.

Or give you everything you want.

[in English] Hmm. You're good.

You're good.

I see how you do it.

That sh*t you made me drink. It's fine.

I'll find her.

I'll find her myself.

[rumbling]

[Dineo humming]

Hey.

Hey! How are you doing?

All right. Erm...

Yeah, the painkillers are kicking in.

Erm...

It's making me a little drowsy.

Yeah, I'm not surprised.

-They're horse tranquillisers.
-I'm sorry, what?

-[laughs] I'm just kidding.
-[laughs]

Oh, you're so funny.

-Hey.
-[Lloyd] Hey.

-Hey.
-[Marcus] Smells good.

It's no big deal.

Thank you.

So... one more dream.

It's okay. We'll get through it.

Yeah, but it is going to get worse,
isn't it?

Hmm, I suppose it depends.

On what?

On how bad your phobias are.

Yeah.

But, I mean, I don't think that
we need to get into that right now.

You know? I think that
we can all do with a bit of a...

a bit of a break.

-Yeah. Good idea.
-Yes.

Yes.

[Lloyd] Ow!

Oh! Oh, right.

-[Lloyd grunts]
-You okay?

Yeah, yeah. I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine.

Listen...

One day when they make a movie
about all this craziness,

we don't have to tell them about
me getting an arrow in my... Right?

-Absolutely.
-[Marcus] Sure.

Who knows? Maybe I saw the arrow coming
and, like, dived in front of you guys

yelling something heroic like, 'Marcus!'

[Dineo] Yeah, sure.
Or maybe something like, er...

'A p*nis kebab?'

No! No.

Guys. What? That could have happened.

[Marcus] Er, how?

She would've had to have had, like...

pinpoint accuracy.

Oh, dude. [laughs sarcastically]
Very funny.

[laughs]

[mysterious whispering]

[mysterious whispering]

[footsteps approaching]

[engine starts]

[suspenseful music]

[Akin] Cancer.

I knew it.

[tense music plays]

[in Tswana] Mr Magosi.

Is everything okay?

[Thato] Oh, no.

Did I miss my appointment?

[in English]
No. No, no, no, no, no. [laughs]

[in Tswana]
I just came to check if you're doing okay?

I just...

I thought my daughter might...

come and see me today.

No. No, no, no. She did.

She was here, this morning.

-Really?
-We had breakfast together.

[in English] We had a wonderful time.

[in Tswana] Did I tell her...

how much I love her?

Yes.

I could see it meant a lot to her.

Oh, that's nice.

That's nice.

I'm just thankful that she...

came to see me.

Yes.

I've got to go.

[laughs]

I'm running late.

But I'm glad that you're okay.

Yeah.

Thank you for your time.

Keep well.

Doctor, just one moment.

I'm expecting a visit
from my daughter today.

When she arrives...

please,

let me know.

Yes. I'll do that.

My child. My child.

That's nice.

[Dineo crying]

[tense music]

[in English] All about Walala.

Walala, Walala.
Where is the Walala?

Walala.

Walala, la, la, la.

Right.

This is what you've been getting
your knickers in a twist about.

[camera shutter clicks]

Look, I'm not some weirdo.
I'm just trying to find her.

Yeah. I tried that.

They lost her file years ago.

Thanks, but I don't think
a psychic's the answer.

Look, I'm sorry for bothering you.

[Dineo] Why do you need a psychic?

I... I don't.

It was just a suggestion.

A pretty bad one.

What's with the book?

It's... It's nothing.

Kind of a hobby, I guess.

Can I see it?

There's... not much to see.

Your hobby is making phone calls?

It's my passion.

You know, people don't call anymore.

[scoffs]

I know what you're doing, Lloyd.

Right... Marcus.

He's worried about you.

Let me guess.
He thinks I'm wasting my time.

-That I'm never gonna find her.
-No, actually.

He's worried that you will.

And that she won't be
what you're hoping for.

I'm not an idiot.

I know she abandoned me.
Trust me, I get that.

I just want answers.

[in Tswana] It's been a while.

-[in English] Hello, old friend.
-I'm sorry...

-Do I know you?
-You did.

Once upon a time, you did.

[sinister music]

It's good to see you.

We've got a lot to catch up on.

Er, excuse me.

Wh... What... What's this about?

Who are you?

It's about treasure.

So I guess
that makes me a pirate. [laughs]

Eh?

I know it's not the same thing but...

I also lost my mother.

She... had cancer, right?

No, that's just what we tell everyone.

She k*lled herself.

I spent so many years
trying to figure out...

why she did it.

Why she left me behind.

And then one day I figured it out
and it just made things worse.

Take it from me,
sometimes not knowing is better.

[phone buzzing]

I need to go see my father.

Tell Marcus I won't be long.

Er, Dineo, wait. Erm...

Can we come with you? I...

I'd really love to meet him.

Okay.

[Lloyd] Okay. I'll get Marcus.

I can see it.

I just don't remember where it is.

You know what? You need to try harder.

It's really important.

Oh, it... it was near a village.

Yeah. There... There were mountains...

Oh, it was cursed... by a Sangoma and...

Yeah, I... I know that already.

I just need a location.

But I... I... I...

I'm sorry, but...

I don't think I can help you.

You know what I've learned
over the years?

How much better people perform
when there's something at stake.

So let me make this easier for you.

If you don't tell me
where this place is,

I'm gonna pay
a little visit to your daughter

and fill her full of holes.

You understand?

And if you don't think I'll do it,
let me tell you something

about your pretty little wife.

Remember her?

I was the one who made her jump.

Yeah.
