- [Jim] You think
that everything
I'm doing is just for me?
- [Rebecca] I
wouldn't know, Jim,
you don't talk to me about it.
- [Jim] Okay, I know, I know,
I'm not present
enough when I'm home.
- [Rebecca] I wish that
was the only thing.
- [Jim] You know what, Rebecca?
This is the last thing
I need right now.
- Fine, I won't
inconvenience you.
- [Jim] Where are you going?
- [Rebecca] Out.

[patrons chattering]
- [Rebecca] Oh, I didn't.
- That gentleman right there.
- Thanks.
- [Patron] Cheers.
[upbeat music continues]
[patrons chattering]
- [Paulina] Sorry.
- Hi.
Sorry it took me so long.
- No, it's so sweet
of you to come,
I know it's been a while.
- Well, with old friends,
we can always pick
up where we left off.
- How are you?
- I'm good, I need a drink.
Excuse me, glass of wine.
- You've been helping me out
ever since I burned incense
in my room freshman year
and set the smoke
alarm off [laughs].
- That was a long time ago.
- Well, here I am again.
I need help.
- [Patron] Goodnight.
- Do you know him?
- No, and I don't want to,
he just bought me this drink.
- You have always had
a way with the men.
- Except for the one
who really matters.
- Tell me, what's going on.
- From the minute he
steps into the house,
we're just at each
other's throats.
- About?
- Work, mostly,
his, he's lost in it.
- Weren't you guys worried
about money a while ago?
Maybe it's a good thing
he's working hard.
- You sound like my mother.
- I'm on your side,
you know that.
- I know.
- Have you tried telling
him how you feel?
- Yes, he's always busy
or he says he doesn't
wanna discuss it.
When I push, we
fight, like tonight.
- Well, welcome to married life.
- Oh, come on, I have never
seen you and Phil argue.
- You think Phil and I have
the perfect relationship?
- I mean, I don't know,
you never seem to complain,
and it looks pretty
great from the outside.
- That's because we work on it.
- Therapy?
- Yeah, for more than a year.
- Yeah, we should do that.
- Look, what are you
doing next weekend?
- I'd have to check with Jim,
but I don't think
we have anything,
well, except for him bringing
work home as usual, why?
- Then come with us.
- Where?
- To a beautiful oasis.
[ominous music]
[door rattling]
- Thank you so much
for coming out.
- Yeah, of course.
- Oh, I think I had one too
many, can you gimme a ride?
- Sure, you can pick
up your car tomorrow.
- You're a good friend.
- Right here.
- Okay.
[ominous music continues]
[footsteps thumping]
- Hey.
- Oh God, you scared me.
- Can I get your number?
- No, I'm married, so no.
- Well, here's mine, in case
he doesn't appreciate you.
[suspenseful music]
Goodnight.
[Rebecca sighing]
[suspenseful music continues]
[doors rattling]
[suspenseful music continues]

[vehicle droning]
[crickets chirping]

[ominous music]
[footsteps thumping]
[keys rattling]
[door rattling]
[door thumping]
[Rebecca sighing]
- [Jim] Yeah, you're right.
I didn't think of that at all.
[Jim chattering]
[ominous music continues]
[footsteps thumping]
[ominous music continues]
I wouldn't worry about it.
I agree, I agree,
that's very important.
And I'll take care of that.
No, of course, of course.
I know how much
this means to you.
It means a lot to me too, yeah.
No, I got it. Thanks
for letting know.
I'll take care of that,
talk to you tomorrow.
- What are you doing?
- I'm working.
- By murmuring on your
phone in the closet?
- Yeah, that guy's wife was
sleeping, so we had to be quiet.
[footsteps thumping]
[Rebecca sighing]
Where have you been?
- At a bar.
- Did you drive home?
- No, Paulina did [sighs], hmm.
[gentle music]
[Jim sighing]
[gentle music continues]
[Rebecca sighing]
Neither of us are happy
with how things are, are we?
- [sighs] Uh-huh.
- Listen, I have an idea.
- Look, I am, I'm really
in the middle of
something right now.
- Something that's more
important than our marriage?
- Oh, come on, Rebecca,
look, you were out drinking
all night with a friend,
you just get home and
I'm supposed to what,
just drop everything,
'cause you have an idea?
- That's fine.
- But look,
we can talk about
it tomorrow, okay?
- Yeah.

[footsteps thumping]
[keys rattling]
[door rattling]
In here.
- Ah, what's all this?
- Relax, have a seat.
- Huh, what's the occasion?
- Oh, you know, just
that idea I had.
- [Jim] Okay.
[laptop thumping]
- What do you think?
- LotusLand?
- It's a therapeutic
couple's retreat.
- What is that?
- I think it's
exactly what we need.
- For what?
- For our marriage.
Come on, read it.
It promises to help
couples to reconnect
and to improve their marriages.
- This is therapy.
- Well, partially,
but it's also a vacation,
a vacation where we focus
on each other and we heal.
- [sighs] I don't know.
It all just seems a little,
you know, self helpy.
- You want our marriage
to work, right?
- Of course.
- Okay, then we have to try.
I think this is a good way.
- Yeah, it looks great.
- Yeah.
Okay, worst case scenario, we
argue at this beautiful oasis
instead of here
at home [laughs].
- Hmm.
[vehicle droning]
[eagle calling]
Where is this place,
South America?
- We're 20 minutes away.
- Good, 'cause I feel like
I've been driving forever.
- Jim, I have a
confession to make.
[vehicle droning]
- Oh.
- This retreat,
it wasn't my idea.
I mean, it was my idea
for us to come, of course,
but someone else
told me about it.
Paulina.
- So they've been here before?
- Well, not exactly.
[vehicle droning]
[tires skidding]
- So Paulina and Phil are
gonna be here with us?
- Along with some other couples.
- And you didn't tell me?
- I didn't think you'd
wanna come if you knew.
I just really want this for us.
[vehicle droning]
- [sighs] You know
how I feel about Phil.
- You used to like him.
- No, no, I did not, I
used to tolerate him.
That was mostly just because
he was part of our group.
You know, he was the
harmless rich kid.
But now the more
money that he makes,
the more insufferable
he becomes.
- Is that why we never
see them anymore?
- No, he's just unbearable.
- Okay, he's a lot, but at
least he's fun to be around.
- You think he's fun?
- [sighs] You know what
I mean, he's upbeat.
- Oh, yeah, well, is
he more upbeat than me?
That's what you mean.
- No.
- Yeah, well, it'd
be easy to be upbeat
if you're swimming in money.
You know, I guess just, you
know, rich guys, they're just,
they're just more fun.
- Are you trying to
sort of fight with me
just to get out of
this or something?
'Cause we need this,
I want this for us.
- Fine, but I am only
doing this for you.

[footsteps thumping]
- Wow, it's so secluded.
- Do we even have cell service?
[footsteps thumping]
[birds chirping]
- We do actually.
[door thumping]
- Aha.
The Curtises have arrived.
[footsteps thumping]
[placid music continues]
Welcome.
Alan Brant, founder
of LotusLand.
- Hi, Rebecca Curtis,
nice to meet you.
- [clears throat]
Jim, Jim Curtis.
- Pleasure to meet you both.
- I don't see anybody else.
Oh, well, at LotusLand
we believe in quality
over quantity.
But not to worry,
the other couples will
be arriving shortly.
Why don't I show you your
room so you can get situated?
- Oh, that'd be great.
- Right this way.
[placid music continues]
[Jim sighing]
I opened the place
five years ago.
Before that I was
in private practice.
- Ah yeah? Where'd
you go to school?
- Undergrad at Dartmouth,
went to med school at Duke.
But those are all
just pieces of paper,
and I have plenty of those.
What really matters to me
is what one does
with their calling.
- Calling?
- Oh, yeah.
I wouldn't be doing this
unless I believed it
was what I was meant to do.
- Ah, well, you really seem
pretty sure of yourself there.
- [Alan] Well.
- Jim.
- I think it's just
like anything in life.
You only get out of it
what you put into it.
Isn't that right?
- I can assure you,
Dr. Brant, Jim and I are
ready to do the work.
- Well, that's wonderful to
hear, but please call me Alan.
We may have plenty of
rules here at LotusLand,
but one thing we're not
big on are formalities.
- Thanks, Alan.
[suspenseful music]
[birds chirping]
[placid music]
[water sloshing]
- Pool hours are 6:00 AM to
10:00 PM, but our humble staff
is available 24 hours,
including myself.
[door rattling]
Your quarters.
- Oh, it's lovely.
- Why don't you two get situated
and then come meet me
in the main building?
Can't wait to tell you
all about the program.
- Sounds good.
[placid music]
[birds chirping]
Okay.
[placid music continues]
[door rattling]
[door thumping]
- [scoffs] That guy,
that is exactly what I imagined
a retreat leader being like.
- Come on, you promised.
- [Jim] Promised what?
- Babe, give this a chance.
- I'm here, aren't I?
- Alan says, you get out
of it what you put in.
- [scoffs] Alan, I'm not so sure
how much we're gonna learn
from a guy like that.
- Oh, please, you still
mad at me or something?
- About Phil and Paulina?
[sighs] I'm not mad at you.
I just, I just wish that I
had known before I agreed.
- I'm sorry, but we wouldn't
be here if I told you.
Come on, let's make
the best of it.
- I know one positive thing.
- What's that?
- I now have something I
can talk about in therapy.
[Rebecca scoffing]
[footsteps thumping]
[placid music]
[birds chirping]
- Stop waiting.
- [Jim] Mm [sighs].
[placid music]
- Hi,
club soda with lemon.
- Oh, I'm sorry.
I wanted a white wine
and he wanted a beer.
- Oh, there's no
alcohol at LotusLand.
I can get you a flat
water if you like.
- No, club soda's fine, thanks.
- Did you know about this?
- About what?
[door rattling]
- Oh, who let the riffraff
in this place, huh [sighs]?
- [Rebecca] Hi.
- Hi.
- Jim.
- [Jim] Phil.
- Part of me was afraid
you wouldn't make it.
- That makes two of us.
- Oh, oh, look at this
darling honeysuckle,
you are delicious.
- Paulina.
- Jim.
- Yeah, [sighs] so what
do we think of this place?
- Oh, we think that, you know,
there's worse places to be
for self-improvement.
- Well, I'll drink to
that, where's the bar?
- No, you won't,
no alcohol here.
We got served club
soda and lemon.
- Well, that doesn't
surprise me in the least.
I mean, did anybody get a
look of this so-called doctor?
- He's got some
impressive credentials.
- Oh, the only doctor I'm
interested in seeing right now
is Dr. Bourbon,
it's gotta be some
around here somewhere.
We're in the middle
of nowhere, oh God.
- What I'd like to do is
get in my bathing suit
and hit the pool.
- Ah, sounds great.
I'd love to join you.
- [Phil] [sighs]
Guess we're swimming.
- Oh, don't go too far, ladies.
We'll be holding
group therapy shortly.
[placid music]
- Already?
[placid music continues]
- I guess we're just gonna
rip the bandaid off early
and then we'll get to the R&R.
- I think you'll all find
our session much more healing
than a bandaid.
[placid music]
[cicadas chirping]
Welcome.
First thing I'd like to do
is congratulate all
of you for being here.
It's not so easy to
admit that you need help.
[cicadas chirping]
- Sounds like an AA meeting.
- Oh, are you familiar with
Alcoholics Anonymous, Phil?
- Oh, me personally?
Ha, no, not by a long shot,
but it's my understanding
that you have to admit you
have a problem and need help.
- Well, I guess in that
regard, you're right, Phil.
It is a lot like AA,
but I have no doubt
that you'll all find
this much more enjoyable.
Why don't we start by
going around the circle
and introducing ourselves,
sharing why we're here?
- No.
[Phil sighing]
- Well, I might as
well get it over with.
I'm Rebecca, Becky.
It's not that dramatic, really.
Over the past year or so, Jim
and I have just drifted apart.
[cicadas chirping]
- Is that fair to say, Jim?
- Yeah.
- Please, Becky, continue.
- That's it, really,
we fell into a rut.
I just feel like
Jim's always working
and when he's not, he's distant.
- She used to like
that I was ambitious.
- There's a difference
between being ambitious
and being obsessive.
- What about your sex
life, has that suffered?
- [laughs] I'm sorry, it's just,
I didn't think we'd be
talking about our sex life
in front of strangers.
- Well, a lot of times
in our discussion,
sex is the least personal topic.
[cicadas chirping]
Why don't you share why you
and Phil are here, Paulina?
- I'm not comfortable
with that, no.
- Well, that's the point, Phil.
We are getting outside
of our comfort zones.
- Yeah, well, some things
need to remain private.
- Phil cheated on me.
[Jim sighing]
- Is that the way
you see it, Phil?
- [Phil] Hmm, hmm.
- Well, certainly something
must have precipitated that.
- Look, it started out
as innocent business
dinners, that's it.
But over time, regretfully, it
turned into an affair, okay?
- No, no, it's not what I meant.
Something must have caused
you to be unfaithful.
- Okay, then, a man
has needs, that's it.
- Oh, yes, and in a
healthy relationship,
those needs are met
by our partners.
Okay, let's move on.
- I'm Joel Rollins,
this is my wife, Jenny.
- Hi.
- A few months ago,
I lost my job.
[cicadas chirping]
[coyotes howling]
[crickets chirping]
[guests chattering]
- I trust you'll all
enjoy the food here.
It is simple, but the
preparation is exquisite.
[ice clinking]
- Hmm, I don't see any red meat.
- Or any meat.
At LotusLand, we
seek physical balance
as well as emotional harmony.
- Well, I find my harmony
in a medium rare
porter house, hmm.
- Steak is heavy
on your stomach.
It's harder to digest.
Give your body a
chance to heal itself.
Your mind will follow.
Okay, now comes the most
unpopular part of the weekend.
Your cell phones.
- Oh, um, okay.
[suspenseful music]
I'll be holding on to them
for the remainder of your
stay, for safekeeping.
- I need mine,
for my job search.
I promise I won't use
it for anything else.
- I'm sorry, but it
was clearly stated
in the rules of the resort.
- Okay, where?
Because I didn't see
anything about that.
- It was in the fine print.
I believe the exact verbiage is,
"Here at LotusLand, we may
take all reasonable measures
to maintain an atmosphere
of tranquility."
- Okay, well, as a lawyer, I
can tell you that that clause
was open to interpretation.
- What happens if
there's an emergency?
- There's a landline in
the main office in the case
of a legitimate emergency,
which I'm certainly
not anticipating.
Thank you, Joel.
Jim, care to join us.
[suspenseful music continues]
[Jim sighing]
[suspenseful music continues]
They'll be safe
with me, I promise.
[bag rustling]
[owl hooting]
- I take it there's no dessert.
- I have some
lovely fresh fruit.
- Oh, fruit.
- So, did I hear correctly
that you all know each other?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, since college.
- Yeah, we're good friends.
- Oh, must be,
sharing everything.
- What's that supposed to mean?
- Well, you know, the
whole therapy thing.
I mean, I couldn't
tell my pals what Jenny
and I say during counseling.
- Well, I don't think it's
anything to be ashamed of.
All relationships need work.
- I'm not judging, I'm
impressed, that's all,
that you guys can share it.
- Uh, we should
probably turn in, yeah?
Yeah.
- Already?
- Yeah, you know,
if we're gonna stick
to the weekend's itinerary,
well, I'd like to get
a good night's sleep.
- Okay.
- It's not a bad idea.
You've all had a very long day,
whether you realize it or not.
- Night, everybody, it
was so nice meeting you.
- [Jim] Night.
- All right, well,
I guess I'll have
my fruit tomorrow.
- You ready to go
back, goodnight.
[coyote howling]
[suspenseful music]
[lid rattling]
[lid thumping]
[sheets rustling]
[Jim sighing]
- [Rebecca] So what
do you think of them?
- Who?
- The other couples,
the Perskys and the Rollins.
- I, I didn't...
- Well, I liked them.
- Uh-huh.
- What, you didn't?
- I'm just tired, all right?
I just really don't
have any desire
to talk about other
people and their problems.
- It's fine, we don't
have to talk about it.
- [sighs] Okay, okay, we
can talk, we can talk.
- No, you're tired, I get it.
- No, we can talk.
[switch clicking]
So, did you ever ask Paulina?
- Asked her what?
- About what she sees in Phil?
- Well, I don't have
to ask her, I know.
He's fun, successful, generous.
- [scoffs] Yeah, oh
yeah, he's real generous.
- What does that mean?
- Mm, I didn't tell
you this already,
'cause well, I just, I didn't
want you to tell Paulina.
[placid music]
I met with Phil, well,
well over a year ago.
It was right after I got my
Christmas bonus, you know,
and I wanted some advice
on where to invest it.
- What did he say?
- Oh, he said,
"Yeah, no problem.
I can give you that advice
for an advisor fee."
- Huh, well, maybe
that's customary.
- For friends?
I mean, come on, it was just
some simple basic advice.
You know, like should
I buy stocks or bonds?
- Okay, yeah, you're
right, that is pretty rude.
- Yeah, yeah, guess
you shouldn't be
surprised, you know,
coming from a guy who
cheats on his wife.
[placid music continues]
So what does Paulina have
to say about all that?
- She never told
me, all she said
was that she had things
they had to work through.
[placid music continues]
- And yet you tell her
all about our problems?
- Well, that's different,
our problems aren't as big.
And I'm more
forthright than she is.
I'm not Paulina and
you are not Phil.
- No, and my bank
account isn't big enough.
- You know that's
not what I meant.
[placid music continues]
[Jim sighing]
[sheets rustling]
[placid music continues]
[placid music continues]
[Jim sighing]
- Do you really think
this is gonna work?
[placid music continues]
[sheets rustling]
- Yeah, I do.

[cicadas chirping]
- You ready?
- Yeah, just need
a couple minutes.
- We're gonna be late.
- What's the big deal?
It's not like they're gonna
kick us out or anything.
- Well, it's rude is all,
keeping people waiting.
- You seen my wallet?
Nope.
[placid music]
- Come on, no, I put it there.
I always put it on the
nightstand every single night.
You know that.
- I don't see it.
[suspenseful music]
- It's not here.
- Can we look for it later?
We really need to go.
- Do you have it in your bag?
- No, no luck.
- No, look, I'm not
gonna go anywhere
until I find my wallet.
[suspenseful music continues]
- I want y'all to look
inside yourselves,
appreciate the moment.
This is why we all come
together, to share.
[suspenseful music]
[footsteps thumping]
Ah, good morning, Jim.
- My wallet's gone.
- I'm sorry to hear that,
did you misplace it?
- No, I didn't misplace
it, someone took it.
- I seriously doubt that.
Getting angry is not
gonna solve anything.
Now have a seat, and I
promise, once we're done
with our session, I'll help
you look for it myself.
- I'm not gonna do anything
until I find my wallet.
- Jim, please.
- Everybody calm
down, oh, buddy.
[footsteps thumping]
[suspenseful music]
I'll go talk to him.
[thunder rumbling]
[suspenseful music continues]
Ah, this is a fitting change
of weather given
the mood, isn't it?
- But look, if your
wallet were missing,
I doubt you'd be
any more relaxed.
- Fair enough.
[water splashing]
- I dunno, this is whole
retreat thing, you know,
it's just not what I expected.
- Well, what did you expect?
More R&R, less self-improvement?
- Yeah.
- Ah, yeah,
just suit up, show up,
go through the motions.
Take from it what you
can and keep it moving.
That's what I do.
It's basically my
philosophy for life.
- No kidding.
- I know what you
think of me, Jim.
In fact, I know what everyone
at university thought of me,
that I was just some
silver spoon rich kid
who never had to
work for a living.
But what people who
don't come from money
can't possibly understand
is that inheritance is an
overwhelming responsibility.
I mean, you're not just
expected to keep the money.
You're expected to grow the
money, which isn't always easy.
- That sounds tough,
yeah, no wonder you
and Paulina are having problems.
- Well, sometimes I think she
only married me for my money.
- Yeah, that's not true.
- Well, I'm not so sure.
You on the other hand, have
Becky, now she is a catch.
- You would know.
- What is that supposed to mean?
- The two of you in college.
- [scoffs] You can't be
serious, that was so long ago.
That was before
you even met her.
Besides, it was college,
everybody was hooking up
with everybody back then.
That's water under
the bridge, right?
- I don't know, I think she's
always had a thing for you.
- [scoffs] Nah, nah, she
has only had eyes for you.
- Well, it doesn't
feel that way.
- You know, if it's
any consolation,
I have my suspicions
about Paulina's fidelity.
- Oh?
- Yeah, I mean, there has
to be some reason why
she hasn't been intimate
with me in almost a year.
I have no evidence, but...
- Didn't you ask her?
- Of course not,
what if I'm wrong?
No, it's just a feeling I have.
Hey, I know that we're here
in this whole spirit of
openness and all of that,
but let's keep this
conversation between us
and not tell the ladies.
- [Jim] Yeah.
[suspenseful music]
[water sloshing]
[thunder rumbling]
[suspenseful music continues]
- [gasps] God, I'm
sorry about all of this.
- Don't be.
[water sloshing]
You know, if it makes
you feel any better,
what happened out
there isn't even close
to the craziest thing I've
seen at these retreats.
I need you to know,
though, I'm concerned.
- About what?
- Well, I know that you're
here for the right reasons.
- Oh, I am, believe
me, I really, really
want this to work.
- I know that, I do.
I've known that since the
moment I laid eyes on you,
but I fear the same can't
be said for your husband.
- Look, I know he's not
as enthusiastic as I am,
but he agreed to
come and participate.
- Becky, I've been
helping couples over many,
many years repair
the relationships.
But sometimes the issues
are insurmountable.
- Oh.
- Just want you
to know that whatever happens,
please feel free to lean on me.
- Uh, thanks, Alan.
- I'm here for you, Becky,
- I should go find
Jim, excuse me.
[suspenseful music]
[footsteps thumping]
[door rattling]
[birds chirping]
Hey.
- Hey.
- [sighs] Have you been
here the whole time?
- No, I just got here.
Where have you been?
- Talking with Alan.
He was trying to help.
- Yeah, stealing my wallet,
that's really helpful.
- He didn't take
your wallet, Jim.
- Okay, well, then
one of the staff did.
But he's still liable.
And once we pay
him for the lodging
and the implied contract
between the two parties.
- Please stop lawyering.
[suspenseful music]
What about you, where'd you go?
- I was talking with Phil.
- About how all of this
is just a waste of time?
- Among other things.
- This morning you
couldn't even stand him,
and now you're all buddy buddy?
- Hardly, but he seems
to be the only person
who's on my side
about this place.
- This isn't a courtroom, it's
not you against the world.
- I've been a good sport, okay?
I'm doing everything
that they asked me to do,
but I'm not gonna pretend
that I'm happy when they're
feeding me rabbit food
and my wallet is missing.
- Fine.
[footsteps thumping]
- What are you doing?
- I'm gonna enjoy my time here.
[suspenseful music]
[footsteps thumping]
[water splashing]
[footsteps thumping]
[birds chirping]
- Impressive.
- Uh, yeah.
What are you doing here?
- Enjoying the scenery.
You mind?
- No.
[water splashing]
Thank you for talking to Jim.
- It was nothing, I
should be thanking you.
- For?
- For this.
At first, I wasn't so
sure about coming here.
I'm still not, but.
- [Rebecca] What do you mean?
- The whole retreat guru thing.
It's not something that we
would've ever thought of.
I'm glad you did.
- Wait, I did?
This was Paulina's idea.
[water sloshing]
[placid music]
- What?
- Yeah, she was the one
who told me about LotusLand.
Sent me the dates, the
website link, everything.
- Really?
- Yeah.
We were having drinks one night,
and I was telling her about some
of the problems Jim
and I were having.
And she mentioned this retreat.
- Well, well, that's
not what she told me.
- What does she say?
- That this whole
thing was your idea.
[Rebecca scoffing]
Well, regardless,
we're all here.
- Yeah.
- Do you ever think
of that night?
- What night?
- Us.
- [laughs] Back in college?
- [Phil] Mm-hmm.
- That was a long time ago.
Why?
- Sometimes I do.
- [scoffs] Well,
I should get back.
- Yeah.
[placid music]
[water sloshing]
[placid music continues]
[water sloshing]
[footsteps thumping]
[placid music continues]
[footsteps thumping]
[door rattling]
- Look, Becky,
I've been thinking.
- Why are we here?
- To work on our marriage?
- No, I mean, Paulina
suggested this place to me.
- I guess, I mean, that's
what you told me, why?
- Apparently Phil
thinks this was my idea.
- When did you see Phil?
- When I was...
That's not the point.
Why would he say that,
why wouldn't he know
that it was Paulina's idea?
- I don't know, who
knows with that guy?
- Oh, I bet Paulina just
told him it was my idea
because she was afraid
he wouldn't come
if he knew it was hers.
I get it, she totally
tricked him into coming.
- Maybe.
- [sighs] I wanna
get in the shower.
[towel rustling]
[suspenseful music]
Jim.
[suspenseful music continues]
- What the hell?
- [laughs] How did we miss it?
- No, no, we would've seen
this, someone put this back.
[Rebecca sighing]
[suspenseful music continues]
- Look, please be civil.
- When have I ever not been?
[knuckles rapping]
- [Alan] Enter.
[door rattling]
[door thumping]
Yes?
- It's Jim and Rebecca Curtis.
- [Alan] Oh, yes, I
know, how can I help you?
- Well, you can turn
around for starters.
- Now what can I do for you?
Your wallet, let me guess,
outside pocket of your suitcase.
- No, it was on my nightstand,
exactly where I left it.
- Well, glad you found it.
- You're lucky I don't sue you.
- Jim.
- Sue me?
What on earth for?
- You hired the staff and one
of them must have taken this.
- May I offer a suggestion?
As Seneca said, "If you
would not have a man flinch
when the crisis comes,
train him before it comes."
- What the hell
does that even mean?
- It means, in order to face
the uncomfortable aspects
of your relationship,
you must first
have to deal with adversity.
- Yeah, well, I'm pretty
uncomfortable already.
- Please just hear me out.
I'm so confident in my approach
that if it doesn't work,
I'll offer you a full refund.
[suspenseful music]
Becky, would you mind if
I spoke to Jim in private
for just a few minutes?
- Um, sure, yeah.
- [Alan] Thank you.
[suspenseful music continues]
[door rattling]
[footsteps thumping]
- [sighs] What is this
place called again?
- The Clarity Clearing.
- That's a really stupid name.
- And where is it?
- He said we'd know
when we got to it.
- Well, we've been
walking for hours.
- I think that's the point.
- You know, I'm really starting
not to understand the point.
- Well, Alan says
sometimes couples
need challenging circumstances
to collapse the
defenses and open up.
- And that's gonna
work by sending us
to the middle of nowhere?
- By isolating us, we're
forced to deal with our issues.
- Well, I think the only issues
that we're currently dealing
with is possibly
a pulled hamstring
and some blisters the
size of silver dollars.
- Can we just stop for a little?
- Guys, come on, we can
stop when we get there.
[suspenseful music]
- Lean on me if you need to.
- Yeah, thanks, thanks.
- Hey, we got this.
- You know, I
don't feel so well.
- What do you
mean, what's wrong?
- Woozy or...
- [screams] Oh Jim!
[gravel skidding]
- Oh, oh!
- Hey, are you okay?
- [Rebecca] Yeah.
- Clearly we need to stop.
- Listen, we need to push
on, you can do that, right?
Okay, great.
- What is your obsession
with getting to this place?
Jim, your wife almost
fell off a cliff.
- Hey, Phil, why don't you
mind your own business, okay?
- What's your problem?
- Gentleman, I found it.
[suspenseful music]
[footsteps thumping]
[crickets chirping]
[owl hooting]
- [Phil] Feeling any better?
- Oh, much, I just
needed to rest.
[fire crackling]
- What are we
supposed to do now?
- Maybe if we go
quiet, you know,
the Joshua trees will
tell us the answers.
- Or we could attempt
to make a go of it.
You know, that is
why we're here.
- I thought that the
reason why we were here
is because some harebrained
guru convinced us
that the answers to
all of our problems
can be found in nature.
[Rebecca laughing]
- Do you have to
mock everything?
- Well, it was your idea to
come here in the first place,
wasn't it?
- Phil, come on.
- Well, well, I mean,
that's the whole
reason we're out here,
be open with each other,
might as well start now.
I'd like to know which
one of you came up
with this crazy idea.
As Paulina says,
that it was Becky.
Becky says it was Paulina.
I'd like to know
which one it was, hmm?
[gentle music]
[fire crackling]
Oh, it is just a big secret.
All right, okay.
- Not the only secret.
[suspenseful music]
- What are you talking about?
- Come on, Becky, I
thought this whole thing
was about honesty.
- Okay, what do you mean?
- You and Phil?
- What about us?
- What is he
talking about, Phil?
[Phil stammering]
- These two have a thing.
- That's not true.
- So nothing happened between
you and Phil in college?
- Way before you and I
ever even got together.
- Look, I see the way that
you look at each other.
- Are you insane?
[sighs] I'm going to bed.
[suspenseful music]
- I think that that
is a great idea.
I think that we could all stand
to put this day behind us
and get a good night's sleep.
[gentle music]
[footsteps thumping]
Ah, honey, coming?
- Gimme a minute.
[suspenseful music]
[fire crackling]
[suspenseful music continues]
[footsteps thumping]
- [Phil] They're still sleeping.
[suspenseful music continues]
[footsteps thumping]
[birds chirping]
[suspenseful music continues]
- [Paulina] Phil,
Phil, where are you?
- Oh, what is she yelling about?
- [Paulina] Phil, if this
is some sort of joke,
it isn't funny.
- Hey, let's go
see what's wrong.
- Ah, she's your friend, you go.
- Come on, please.
[suspenseful music]
- [sighs] Fine.
[suspenseful music continues]
- [Paulina] Phil?
- [Jim] What's wrong?
- It's Phil.
When I woke up,
he was gone, Phil!
- Oh, he couldn't
have gone far, Phil!
- It's been an hour
since I woke up, Phil!
- Maybe he just went on a walk.
- Without any of his gear?
I mean, all of his
things are in our tent.
- [Jim] Phil!
- We have to go look for him.
- Where?
- I don't know.
Maybe toward the hills.
- I mean, he could have
walked off in any direction.
I say we go back to the resort.
The sooner we get back there,
the sooner we can
send some help.
- No, I'm not
leaving without Phil.
- I don't like that
idea either, okay?
But I think it's the
best option that we have.
Besides, Phil may have
already gone back there.
- Jim's right, he
could be back there,
and if not, we can send
a search party out here.
We don't wanna just waste hours
if he really needs our help.
- He probably wandered
off and he just got lost.
- But what did he tell you?
[suspenseful music]
- Me, when?
- Last night, when
Jim and I were asleep?
- What do you mean?
- Oh God, enough, Becky,
the innocent act isn't
gonna work anymore.
Phil told me everything.
- About what?
- About the two of you.
- Paulina, I swear to you,
there is nothing
going on between us.
- Phil wanted to come
clean last night.
He told me that the two
of you had been together.
- He's lying.
- What reason would he
have to lie to me?
- Jim, I'm telling you,
I don't know where any
of this is coming from.
- I woke up just before dawn
and Phil was already gone,
but I heard them talking
outside, whispering.
- So it wasn't me.
- It was a woman's voice.
- This is crazy, come on.
- All right, well, look,
we need to get back, okay?
'Cause whatever happened,
we're not doing Phil any
favors by arguing about it.
Just grab the things you need
for the hike and let's go.
The sooner we get back, the
sooner we can get some help.
[suspenseful music]
- Paulina.
[suspenseful music continues]
[birds chirping]
[suspenseful music]
- You haven't said a word to me.
You haven't said a
word since we left.
- I'm thinking.
- Well, you don't believe
what she said, do you?
- You don't need to
lie to me, Rebecca.
- [sighs] None of
this makes any sense.
Whatever's going on, it's
Phil's doing, not mine.
- Paulina said that she heard
him talking to somebody,
Rebecca, it wasn't me.
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
[gravel crunching]
[suspenseful music continues]
- Where is everybody?
- I don't know.
[suspenseful music continues]
- It's so quiet.
- Yeah, hello?
Look, let's split
up and look around.
- I don't think
that's a good idea.
- Listen, if Phil
needs our help,
then we probably
shouldn't waste any time.
You can go to the cabins.
I mean, maybe Phil's
come back, okay?
And you go check Alan's office.
- I'll go to the parking lot
and see whose car's here.
We'll get an idea where
everybody is, all right?
[suspenseful music continues]
[footsteps thumping]
[birds chirping]
[footsteps thumping]
[ominous music]
[knuckles rapping]
[door grinding]
- Phil, you in here?
[door thumping]
[ominous music continues]
[ominous music continues]
[ominous music continues]
[paper rustling]
[ominous music continues]
[paper rustling]
"Dear Becky."
[ominous music continues]
[ominous music continues]
[paper rustling]
[footsteps thumping]
[door rattling]
[cicadas chirping]
[birds chirping]
[door rattling]
- Anything?
- He wasn't in his room.
- Alan isn't here either.
- Yeah, well, all the cars
are gone except for ours.
And one more, from the
bumper stickers on it,
I'm gonna guess
that it's Alan's.
- Well, if he's still here,
he is not in his
room or his office.
- [chuckles] Yeah.
- You don't believe me?
- Oh, no, I believe you.
At this point, I don't
really care about Alan.
What I care about is our phones.
I bet he hid 'em in his room
so we wouldn't find them.
[suspenseful music]
[footsteps thumping]
Okay, look anywhere, everywhere
that our phones could be.
[suspenseful music]
[doors rattling]
[Rebecca screaming]
[Alan thumping]
- Check his pulse.
[suspenseful music continues]
- No.
- Oh God.
- There's bruising
around his neck.
- What does that mean?
- It means that
somebody strangled him.
- Who?
- How would I know?
- Oh my God, oh my God.
- Okay, we need to think.
- We need to call
the police now.
- How, we don't have our phones?
- There's a landline in
the office for emergencies.
Remember Alan said so when
he took our phones, let's go.
[suspenseful music continues]
[footsteps thumping]
[cicadas chirping]
[suspenseful music continues]
It's dead.
[receiver thumping]
- Our phones have
to be here somewhere
if they weren't in this room.
- Yeah, let's find them.
[suspenseful music continues]
[drawers rattling]
- Nothing over here.
[suspenseful music continues]
[drawers rattling]
Bingo.
[suspenseful music continues]
- You really think
they're in there?
- What better place to
keep something safe?
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
[lock rattling]
[buttons beeping]
[suspenseful music continues]
- Watch out.
[metal thumping]
- I think that's a waste
of time and energy.
- Do you have a better idea?
- Maybe he wrote down
the code somewhere.
- No, he probably
just memorized it.
- Maybe his computer.
[suspenseful music continues]
[sighs] It's password protected.
- He has to have some way of
contacting the outside world
if the landline goes dead.
[suspenseful music]
[cicadas chirping]
- Yeah, his cell phone.
[suspenseful music continues]
[suspenseful music]
Who's gonna do it?
- I can't, I just can't.
- I mean, it's your idea.
- All I said was he probably
has his phone on him.
Fine, I'll do it.
[suspenseful music continues]
[shirt rustling]
Got it.
[suspenseful music]
[cicadas chirping]
- It's an old phone, it
probably requires a fingerprint.
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
- Is it dead, the phone?
[Paulina scoffing]
- It's not gonna work.
- Why not?
- Electricity activates
the fingerprint sensor.
If there's no life,
then there's no energy
left from the body.
- You didn't think to say that
before I started
manhandling a corpse?
- There's a lot going
on right now, Paulina.
I'm sorry, I know Phil is
missing, I just, I'm trying to-
- Okay, we don't need to
use the fingerprint scanner.
We can make an emergency call.
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
It's not working.
- That only works
if the phone is set
to its default settings.
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
I don't think we have
a choice anymore.
We gotta get outta
here right now.
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
[footsteps thumping]
[cicadas chirping]
- We'll take our car.
First town we get to,
we'll call the police.
- Well, what if Phil comes
back here while we're gone?
- If Phil comes back,
then he'll be here
when we come back
with help, okay?
- Guys!
- What is it?
- The tires are slashed.
- What?
[cicadas chirping]
[footsteps thumping]
Ours too.
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
- What?
[suspenseful music continues]
- Look, I don't care,
we're getting outta here.
We will drive across the desert
on our rims if we have to.
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
- What is it?
[suspenseful music]
[cicadas chirping]
- Brake fluid, the
line's been cut.
We're not going anywhere.
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
- Ours too.
- Someone doesn't
want us to leave.
[suspenseful music]
[cicadas chirping]
- We will have to walk.
- No, no, what?
The nearest town's,
what, like 26 miles away?
That is way too far to walk
out here in the desert.
- We have to try.
- We would die in the heat,
even with food and water.
- We'll go at night
when it's cooler.
- No, no, no, I say we stay
here, okay, at least for now.
Look, we have shelter and we
have plenty of food and water.
- And then what?
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
- I bet somebody
shows up tomorrow.
Yeah, you know, an
employee, a delivery.
- So we just wait?
- We survive.
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
- I'm going back to my bungalow.
- Paulina, wait, we
should all stay together.
- You think I'm gonna
stay here with you
after what you did
with my husband?
- I didn't do anything.
If Phil come, when
he comes back,
you'll see this was all
just a big misunderstanding.
- Mm-hmm, well, until
then, have a good night.
[suspenseful music continues]
[cicadas chirping]
[coyote howling]
- I can't believe she actually
thinks I slept with him.
I mean, it's ridiculous.
If there wasn't so much
going on right now,
I would have to laugh.
- Why would he tell
her that though?
- Wait a minute, what
if Phil did come back?
- What do you mean?
- What if he k*lled Alan?
- Why would he do that?
- I don't know.
None of this makes any sense.
[suspenseful music]
What did Alan say to you
before we went on that hike?
[suspenseful music continues]
- Nothing.
- Jim.
- He said that he thought
that I wasn't given 100%,
you know, I wasn't fully
committed to this process.
- What did you say?
- I told him
to mind his own business.
- Mm, I just can't imagine
he would wanna k*ll Alan.
[suspenseful music continues]
- Well, Paulina's right.
- About what?
- We should leave tonight
as soon as the sun sets.
- No, it would take us
an entire day to hike
to the nearest town, our
bodies couldn't do it.
No, we're gonna stay here.
I'm taking the first watch.
- What does that mean?
- It means somebody needs
to stay awake, especially
while we're trying
to figure this whole thing out.
- I can't sleep right now.
- Oh, just try,
you know, a lot has happened.
Probably even more
tired than you think.
[suspenseful music continues]
[Rebecca sighing]
Becky, what is that?
[suspenseful music continues]
- What?
- That, there in your pocket.
[suspenseful music continues]
[Rebecca sighing]
- Just something I found
when I was looking for Phil.
- What is it?
- It's a letter
written by Phil.
- Why do you have it?
- Because it was written to me.
Before I show you,
you have to know
that none of this
makes any sense.
Everything he says is
it's not true, okay?
You have to believe that.
[paper rustling]
[crickets chirping]
[footsteps thumping]
[paper rustling]
[Jim sighing]
[suspenseful music]
- What, what do you, he's
ending things with you?
- That's the thing,
there's nothing to end.
- Why would he take
the time and the energy
to write a letter about
a non-existent affair?
- I don't know,
because he's crazy.
I mean, all of this is crazy!
- Why didn't you tell me about
this when you first found it?
- Because I knew
what you'd think,
exactly what you're
thinking right now.
[suspenseful music continues]
- [sighs] The only thing that
I am thinking about right now
is how we can get
out of here safely.
And we can't do
that until tomorrow.
So get a couple hours of sleep
and then I will do
the same thing, okay?
- I'll try.
[suspenseful music continues]
[crickets chirping]
[owl hooting]
Hmm.
[door rattling]
[suspenseful music]
Jim?

[ominous music]
[ominous music continues]
[gasps] What are you doing?
- What are you doing?
I thought you were sleeping.
- I woke up and you were gone.
You were supposed to
be watching after me.
- Yeah, I heard a noise,
I went to check on it.
Turned out it was nothing,
but then I heard you.
I just, I didn't
know it was you.
- Why didn't you wake me up?
- I needed to clear
my head, you know?
I need to think.
- [sighs] Yeah, me too.
I felt like we were
missing something.
Look, look at this.
- [Jim] What?
- It's flat.
- So?
- A real diploma,
the seal is raised.
It's printed on cheap
paper, it's fake.
- So what, Alan Brant didn't
really go to Dartmouth College?
- Exactly, he wasn't
even a real doctor.
[suspenseful music]
- Anything else?
[suspenseful music continues]
[paper rustling]
- That sicko had been spying
on me the entire time.
[suspenseful music continues]
- Wow.
- Who do you think
he really was?
- I don't know,
but I think we should
go back to the room.
Get some rest before
the sun comes up.
- [sighs] I don't think I can.
- Let's try, okay?
[suspenseful music continues]
[footsteps thumping]
[birds chirping]
[door rattling]
Okay, oh gosh, you know what?
I'll be right back.
- Where are you going?
- I left the light
on in the office.
- Deal with it later.
- If the person
who's behind all of
this is still around,
we don't want them knowing
that we're onto them.
All right, you, you just stay
here, get some rest, okay?
We're gonna need it.
[door rattling]
[footsteps thumping]

[keys rattling]
[door rattling]
[footsteps thumping]
- You did so good with
Phil, now it's my turn.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Do you believe me?
- [Paulina] Mm-hmm.
- Okay, love you.

[footsteps thumping]
[suspenseful music continues]
[knuckle rapping]
[suspenseful music continues]
- Roll it down.
[suspenseful music continues]
Hey, what are you doing?
- I just figured I'd try
to make a call from the car
even without my phone.
- And?
- No luck.
- Okay.
[suspenseful music continues]
Come on.
[suspenseful music continues]
[birds chirping]
- Should we go wake up Paulina?
- No, no, let's let
her sleep some more.
But we should
probably get ready.
You know, get some food,
you're probably hungry.
- Yeah.
- Get something to eat.
Come on.
[door thumping]
[door rattling]
[birds chirping]
[birds chirping]
You okay?
- Of course.
I mean, no, no, I'm
not, are you okay?
[suspenseful music]
- Yeah, you just, you seem,
you know, out of it ever since
we found that fake diploma.
[suspenseful music continues]
- Doesn't it bother you?
- I mean, with Alan dead
and Phil missing, you know,
I think that a fake diploma,
that's the least
of our problems.
- You're right, I'm
gonna go take a shower.
- Why?
- I wanna be ready
for whatever we decide to do.
- You're gonna get
sweaty in no time.
- Exactly, which is why
I wanna start fresh.
- Don't take too long.
[suspenseful music continues]
We wanna get a jump on our
day, figure out our next move.
- Okay.

[birds chirping]
[door rattling]
She knows.
[ominous music]
- Are you sure?
- Yeah, I found her in our car.
- Okay.
- I think she
may have accessed the internet.
The tires are slashed, but
the electrical system's fine.
- That doesn't necessarily
mean she knows anything.
- No, but when we
got back to our room,
she said she wanted
to take a shower
and then crawled out
the bathroom window.
- We can still pin it on her
if we stick to the plan.
- You don't understand.
She may have already
told the police,
- Let me get dressed.
- Yeah, hurry up.
We need to find her right away.
- And then what?
[ominous music]
[g*n rattling]
- Plan B.
- Okay.
[door rattling]
[suspenseful music]
[Rebecca panting]
[suspenseful music continues]
[vase rattling]
[Rebecca panting]
[vase clicking]
[suspenseful music continues]
[footsteps thumping]
Maybe she ran off.
- No, no, she is
in the main house.
- I know you've been
married to her for 20 years,
but I've been friends
with her for longer.
When she gets scared,
she takes off.
- Look, there's nowhere
to hide out here, okay?
She's gonna need cover.
Especially if she thinks
that the police are coming.
- Are they coming,
do you believe that?
- You just stay here.
- No, I'm coming with you.
- If I miss her and she
runs, you need to grab her.
- I'd feel better if
we stuck together.
- I know, this will
all be over soon.
[suspenseful music continues]
[footsteps thumping]
[suspenseful music]
[cleaver whooshing]
- I coming with you.
- You can't, I told you.

[suspenseful music continues]
[Jim chuckling]
[suspenseful music continues]
You can stand up, Rebecca.
[suspenseful music continues]
Oh, I'm not gonna hurt you.
[suspenseful music continues]
Did you contact the police?
- How would I do that?
- Don't lie to me!
[suspenseful music continues]
I was there, I saw what
you did in the car.
I know you accessed
the internet.
- I looked up Alan Brant.
Alan Brant is a judge who
decides a lot of your cases.
Alan Brant isn't the real Alan
Brant, he was your client.
You defended him
in a fraud case.
- Oh, fraud, fraud
makes it sound like it
was so much more
sophisticated than it was.
No, Alan Brant is
nothing but a hustler.
In another time,
he'd be going town to
town selling snake oil.
- But you defended
him, you got him off.
- Yeah, I did, and he owed me.
- Why did you k*ll him?
- Alan fell for you,
head over heels.
- Is that why you strangled him?
[suspenseful music continues]
- So the other
night, Alan tells me
that he's gonna
tell you the truth.
I can't have that.
So I promised him that
I would come clean
about Paulina and I.
But first he had to
send away his staff
and the other couples, you know,
something about
a COVID outbreak.
And the night before
we went on our hike,
I snuck into his room
and I took care of him.
[suspenseful music continues]
[suspenseful music]
- [huffs] Where's Phil?
- Phil? Phil's at the
bottom of a ravine.
- You're finally
accepting my apology?
Is that what this is about?
- [Paulina] Maybe.
- 'Cause you know.
[suspenseful music]
[Phil screaming]
[Phil thumping]
[birds chirping]
- You and Paulina were gonna
pin this whole thing on me.
- For k*lling Phil,
yeah, yeah, we were.
I mean, of course I'd
tell the investigators
at first, it's not possible.
Not my Rebecca, but Paulina,
Paulina would convince 'em.
And then there's the
the Phil breakup note,
you know, as proof.
Oh yeah, and then there's
this, your cell phone.
You were texting
Phil the whole time.
- Why, why, why not
just divorce me?
[suspenseful music]
- 'Cause you and Phil
have such good life
insurance policies.
Paulina and I can
retire, live the life
that we've always
wanted to live.
- God, you're more heartless
than I ever could have imagined.
- Yeah, well, Alan,
Alan was unplanned,
but Paulina, she had
a brilliant idea.
See, you convinced
Phil to k*ll Alan
because he saw the
two of you together.
Yeah, it's genius.
- When did you and Paulina?
[suspenseful music continues]
- A year ago.
[suspenseful music continues]
- Well, you two can
be together in jail,
once I tell the
police everything.
[suspenseful music continues]
- I'm afraid you're still gonna
have to take the fall for that.
[suspenseful music continues]
- Really, you're gonna sh**t me?
[door thumping]
- Do it.
Let's be done with this.
[suspenseful music continues]
[cleaver thumping]
- Please, come on, think of
everything we've been through.
Come on, I love you.
- She's lying,
Jim, she's a fake.

[suspenseful music continues]
- Okay, oh!
- [Paulina] Get up.
[suspenseful music continues]
[Rebecca panting]
- The police are never
gonna believe your story.
- With you dead, of
course they will!
- Not after they read about
Alan's history with Jim,
I emailed it from the car.
- You know, I'm sorry,
Becky, but only one of us
is gonna come out of this alive.
- Why, why are you doing this?
[suspenseful music continues]
I care about you.
If you and Jim love each
other, then be together.
Nobody has to die.
- God, you are always
such a Pollyanna,
you know, making
the best of things
and attracting all the guys.
- That's not true.
- Turn around!
[suspenseful music continues]
- You don't have to do this.
- No, I wanted Jim, but
I had to settle for Phil
and he wanted you too.
[suspenseful music continues]
Now it's my turn
to get what I want.
- Not today!
