02x03 - The Field Trip

Post by bunniefuu »

Peter, where is your father?

[PETER]
He's been delayed, actually.

We cannot start until everyone is here.

Is the father who I think it is?

[MASHA]
We need investors, do we not?

[HELENA] There are plenty of
billionaires that aren't David Sharpe.


You're late.

So, no "Nice to see you again"?

[SIGHS]

[IMOGEN]
I had a great time last night.

So did I. We should do this again?

- Your dad's coming soon.
- In theory, yes.

[IMOGEN] If he's anything
like my mother, he'll be here.


You must excuse my daughter.

[IMOGEN] We were supposed to come here
to work on our relationship.


[VICTORIA] Can we please just enjoy
this beautiful spa?


Sister Agnes, you have arrived safely.

I used to be a nun.

I wish that I could be
that present, like you.

No, you don't want to be like me.

[TINA] Why'd you stop believing?

I came here because
I'm looking for absolution,

and only she can grant that.

Masha?

God.

[MARTIN] I just think that having
her here, it's... it's a mistake.


And as a professional,
I cannot work with her.

Of course you can.

I... No, I don't want to.

You just need to grow a pair.

I have a pair.
Believe me, I have quite the pair.

Then, stop being so scared
and stick up for yourself, okay?

It is my wish that you both
share responsibilities for this place.

- It'll be good for you, Martin.
- Well, it's not good for this place.

Just stop.

Just stop and make it work, okay?

- [HELENA COUGHING]
- [DOOR CLOSES]

[CONTINUES COUGHING]

- Are you okay?
- [HELENA] Yeah, yeah, yeah, fine.

- [HELENA COUGHING]
- I didn't mean to inflame you.

I'm fine! [CONTINUES COUGHING]

[DOOR CREAKING]

[AGNES EXHALES SHARPLY]

[MASHA] Sister Agnes?

[DOOR CLOSES]

Is it comfortable down there?

It doesn't look it.
Scoot over, let me see.

[MASHA SIGHS]

These are premium towels,
but we do have a whole bed right there.

Yes, I noticed.

Why did you come here, Agnes?

[DISTANT BELL TOLLS]

[ GENTLE MUSIC PLAYING]

I think I'm here to try
and deal with my guilt.

- Guilt about what?
- My sin.

Can you be more specific?

No.

You know, I've met people
who are so obsessed

with being comfortable
that even the softest mattress

or the plushest pillows or...

or the highest thread count sheets
are not good enough.

Not comfortable, not enough.

I don't have that problem.

Oh, I think you have a lot more
in common with those people

than you think.

I don't follow.

Come on, hiking all the way up
Zauberwald in rags,

or hauling Brian's bags
up to his room... [CHUCKLING]

or lying here on this hardwood floor.

We have a bed of nails, if you'd prefer.

[CHUCKLES]

Somewhere in storage. I can find it.

This is my version
of comfortable, that's all.

We're not here
to be comfortable, Sister.

And I think there's an idea,
a very Christian idea,

that you are extremely
uncomfortable with.

What's that?

Forgiveness.

[SCOFFS] No, of course not.

I'll forgive anyone.

- Does that include yourself?
- There would be no point.

Why do you say that?

Because it won't change anything.

It won't bring her back to life.

[VICTORIA]
You're very mysterious, aren't you?

I beg your pardon?

Oh, just so unassuming with
your abstemious little bowl of gruel.

I mean, not a bad thing.
Confidence whispers, as they say.

Mom, leave the poor nun alone.

Honey, we're simply having
a nice conversation over breakfast.

Don't be so unsociable.

- You're prying.
- [VICTORIA] I'm interested.

Isn't that the whole
point of this retreat,

to unashamedly demand
all the grisly details

of other people's lives?

Speaking of which,
where is that presumably handsome

and charming father of yours?

[PETER] [SIGHS]
Your guess is as good as mine.

- I still haven't heard from him.
- He's not here.

[MASHA] Hm. I can see that.

Maybe he's still asleep.
I could go wake him?

- No.
- So, what do we do?

Continue with the schedule.

Very well, um... [CLEARING THROAT]

Then, um, we'll start in,
let's say half an hour.

- Great.
- [MARTIN] With or with without him.

- Mm-hmm.
- New necklace today?

[ MYSTERIOUS MUSIC PLAYING]

Nothing is new, Martin.
Just open for reinterpretation.

[MARTIN] Just don't be late.
We'll be waiting.

So,
what is the canonization process like?

Are there luncheons?
Do the cardinals campaign?

It's the Vatican, Mother,
not the Golden Globes.

Well, darling, they're both
just money-laundering schemes

with fabulous wardrobes.

- Guten Morgen, Leute.
- Good morning.

At this time,
you will conclude your breakfasts,

and then please gather
on the front portico

- for immediate transport.
- Transport?

[MARTIN] You may bring water
for the journey, but nothing else.

Today, we'll start the protocol,
and we're going on a field trip.

[MIKE] [OVER COMPUTER] We're also
negotiating with our overseas team


to prioritize what's possible...

[DAVID] Let... just
let me stop you there.

What I'm not hearing is why this
is only coming up a week before launch.

[LOUD WHIRRING AND BANGING,
DROWNING OUT CONVERSATION]

[MIKE] They're working through some
internal restructuring and changes...


Hold... hold on. Hold on.

[LOUD WHIRRING CONTINUES]

- [DAVID] Hey!
- [WHIRRING CONTINUES]

Hey, guys?

[SIGHS]

f*ck sake. Unbelievable.

Sorry about that. [CLEARING THROAT]

Mike, you were saying?

- [AUDIO CRACKLING]
- Mike?

Can you hear me?

[COMPUTER CHIMES]

[ GENTLE MUSIC PLAYING]

[PETER] This is exciting.
It kinda brings back memories.

- [IMOGEN] Memories of what?
- [PETER] Oh, you know,

doing mushrooms
and going on school trips and things.

- You never did that?
- Certainly not.

Imogen only attended
the most academically rigorous schools.

And besides,
nobody ever offered her any.

[PETER]
Well, that's something we should fix.

But what say you and I
commandeer the back seats

and, uh, canoodle?

Is that what kind of kid you were?

Commandeering back seats and
canoodling with a coat over your lap?

- Your mom's right there.
- [MARTIN] Everyone, the elevator's here.

She and the Fresh Prince of Ryanair don't
require any level of discretion, so...

Oh, Fresh Prince of Ryanair?
That's a... that's a really good one.

How long have you been sitting
on that one for?

[IMOGEN]
It was just extremely spontaneous.

Oh!

[MARTIN] Could you just please
walk towards it in an orderly manner?

Good morning.

Have you, um...

Have you installed
a... a signal jammer on my roof?

- You're late.
- Okay, fine.

Well, that's my mistake,
but what I'd like to discuss first,

is I'm in the middle of a meeting,

you've installed
a signal jammer on my roof.

Did you see your son this morning?

- I was about to.
- It's almost noon.

If I hadn't seen my child in months,
wild horses couldn't keep me away.

Look, if you don't get
your guys to take it down,

I'm gonna... I'm gonna climb up there,
I'll take it down myself.

It's true, we have some
planned renovations for your roof,

but a signal jammer, no, no.

If there's problem with your internet,
it has to be your satellites.

You know, I could just leave.
Do you want me to leave?

I can have the chopper
here in two hours.

[SCOFFS LIGHTLY] Feel free.

But if you're having so much trouble

not using your electronic toys
for a few days,

then I would strongly suggest
you forcing yourself to do a detox.

Fine.

You know what I'm gonna do?

I'm gonna push the meeting.

So, how can I join up with the group?

[SCOFFS] No.

- No, you can't do that.
- Course I can.

No, absolutely not.

They will be returning this evening.

[SIGHS] And you will see them then.

Well, what am I supposed to do all day?

You could join me on my midday routine.

Sure.

- I'll get my coat.
- Wonderful.

So, are we waiting on Masha, or what?

Well...

You know what? Not anymore.

So, um, everybody...

board the car, please.

[ GENTLE MUSIC PLAYING]

- After you.
- No, no, please.

No, no, please, I insist.

- No, I...
- [ANNOUNCER SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY ON PA]

Okay. Okay.

- Sorry.
- [BRIAN GRUNTS]

- Oh!
- Oh, oh, I'm... I'm sorry.

- [DOOR SHUTS]
- Sorry.

- I am so sorry.
- That's fine. It's fine.

It's not like you're Nate
from The Nut Bunch g*ng.

Well, if I were,
you'd have felt it on your leg.

[LAUGHING]

[ GENTLE MUSIC CONTINUES]

I'm sorry for being
such a horrible b*tch yesterday.

It's okay.

Believe me,
I'm used to a public shaming.

Can I still be a Crabapple Club member
in good standing?

Raise your right hand.

And recite the clubhouse pledge
three times and one time backwards.

Don't push it, Tumkin.

I'm very sorry to ask,
but would it be okay

if we walk a little bit faster

- because the others are...
- Oh, yes.

Thank you. I'm gonna get those two.

[LAUGHING]

- Little question, sorry to interrupt.
- Amazing. Yeah.

Would it be okay if you look at that
later again, or like another day?

- Sure.
- Thank you so much.

[DAVID] I haven't brought

Oh.
Well, you can wear mine, if you like.

Are we actually supposed to drink this?

Is it that bad?

- [ALL SNIFFING]
- [ALL] Oh!

It smells like a porta-potty
at Coachella. [LAUGHING]

- You've never been to Coachella.
- You don't know.

Okay, enough. You can put your lids
back on your thermoses.

Good. So, as some of you

may have already guessed,
these thermoses

do contain your first dose
of the medication.

Each contains a proprietary blend
calibrated specifically to you.

We are here at the
Alpinkulturundkunstehalle today

to make an exploration of the past.

He's cute, but it's sort of like

There is no way I'm gonna drink this.

That's not optional.

Everything is optional, darling.

Life is optional.

[VICTORIA SIGHS DEEPLY]

And you may now drink the medication.

Cheers.

[WHISPERING]
This better be f*cking worth it.

It will be, I promise.

- [IMOGEN] What are you doing?
- Giving you some of mine.

- It's forbidden.
- [MATTEO] Imogen?

You have this experience together.

My son? Uh, regularly.

[MASHA] How many times a year?

Well, that's... that's not really, uh,
any of your business, is it?

Don't think. Just a number.

- Why?
- Because the cold could go to your head.

I need to make sure that

When I saw that New Yorker cover,

it took me a moment to place you, but...

[SIGHS] I couldn't forget that face.

Yeah, yeah. Okay.

Have you changed?

- Me? No.
- No?

No, I... I'm a bit older.

Company's a bit bigger, but, um,
I've always known who I am

so, no need to change.

And that is a good thing?

Yeah, I think so.

Okay. Okay.

Well, if you feel lightheaded

or not well, you can call reception.

They will bring you anything you need.

- Well, you're the boss.
- [SCOFFS] Yes.

Nice necklace, by the way.

Thank you.
It was given to me by an old friend.

Who you just tried to k*ll.

Who I saved.

And who I could save more
if he would let me.

[MASHA CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

Get some rest.

[♪ GENTLE MUSIC PLAYING]

[MARTIN] Guten Abend. Hello.

Yeah.

[KEYS JINGLING]

Danke schoen.

Agnes.

[CELL DOOR CLOSES]

I'm sorry, I'm just relieved
that you're safe.

May I ask what happened? Please.

[SIGHS]
I just wanted to go to confession.

Okay.

What did you want to confess?

It doesn't matter.

No one was there.

No priest, no God. Just me.

I was talking to myself.

May I?

[AGNES] Yes, please.

Agnes, now you're talking to me.

It's inexcusable what's happened.

Now, I should not have been
conducting this exercise alone.

It was way too much for one person
to supervise safely,

and I should not have been p...

You... should not have been put...

in this position.

It's just... it's infuriating.

[MARTIN SIGHS]

She... she was supposed to be with you?

Ah.

She didn't show up.

But other things
were more important to her.

- Perhaps she had a higher calling.
- But higher than your safety?

I am responsible
for what happened to me, not her.

Not you.

Not Mother, not God.

And now...

I want go home.

[♪ POIGNANT MUSIC PLAYING]

This way, Fräulein.

- Oh, danke schoen, mein"frau-man."
- [LAUGHING]

[♪ GENTLE MUSIC PLAYING]

I have a strange feeling
you might actually, um... like me.

Is that accurate?

Yeah, I'd say that was accurate. Uh-huh.

[ GENTLE MUSIC CONTINUES]

[BOTH LAUGHING]

[PETER] [MUTTERING] ...the key.

- [KEYS JINGLING]
- Yeah, there.

[IMOGEN CHUCKLES]

[PETER] Oh, watch out.

[BOTH GRUNTING, LAUGHING]

- [IMOGEN YELPING]
- Oh!

f*ck, oh my God.
Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.

Who the f*ck is that? [GASPING]

Dad?

Oh, son, hi.

- What are you doing here?
- What do you mean, what am I doing here?

- What are you doing here?
- This is my room.

Oh.

Masha put me here.

- Uh, why?
- It's a long story.

Probably her idea of a joke.

Um... Okay, um...

- [DAVID GROANING]
- Whoa. Are you okay?

Uh, yeah, I'm fine.

I really didn't think
you were gonna be able to make it.

I got held up a couple
of days in Munich.

No, I know, but I... I texted you
and I... and I tried to call, but...

Well, I texted you.

But you know what the signal's like
in these mountains.

Anyway, good to see you.

Yeah.

Great to see you.

- Hi.
- Hello.

David Sharpe.

Imogen Auclair.

Lovely to meet you, Imogen.

Sorry it's under such, uh,
bizarre circumstances.

Oh, it's fine.

Imogen's a, um, a friend.

She's actually here
for the retreat as well.

- We met a couple days ago.
- Oh.

Great.

- Very nice.
- Yep.

Good on you.

[IMOGEN CHUCKLES AWKWARDLY]

Well, it's late.
I should probably get back to my room.

I'll leave you guys to it.

And we can catch up
over breakfast in the morning.

- Okay.
- Don't be late.

Apparently, they're very strict
about that kind of thing around here.

No, for sure. Uh, Dad, just, um...

Um...

I just wanted to say, um,
I'm really glad you're here.

Oh. Me too, my boy.

Big day tomorrow, I imagine.

Maybe get some rest.

Yeah, no, that's...
that's a good idea, um...

[DOOR CLOSES]

[IMOGEN] [CLICKING TONGUE] So...

That was your dad.

Yeah, that was... that was Dad.
[CHUCKLES]

[CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY]

- You know, I think, um, I think it's...
- Yeah.

- Maybe we should, um...
- Yeah, no, you're right.

- We should...
- No.

Sleep, um...

Daddy knows best.

Yeah, he does.

- Um...
- [CHUCKLES] Okay.

Hello?

[MASHA] [ON PHONE] I'm just checking
that your satellite is up again.


Oh, so you switched off the
signal jammer on the roof, huh?

[MASHA] I don't know
what you're talking about.


Why do you think it rattled you
so much to see your son?


Rattled? I wasn't rattled.

Not sure I would have planned
our reunion that way though.

[MASHA] You're used to seeing Peter
on your terms.


Is that it?

Look, this is all very cute, Masha.
You made your point.
