[tense music]

[monster screaming]

[wind blowing]

[electricity buzzing]

[Hazel panting]

[gentle music]

[Hazel panting]

- [Hazel] She was a young woman

with big hopes and dreams.

[Hazel panting]

An optimist who had a positive

effect on everyone she knew.

Unfortunately, it all ended

at that bus stop in Rearden, Oklahoma.

Dori Devers was never

seen or heard from again.

[gentle music]

[bird squawking]

[waves splashing]

[gentle music continues]

But that doesn't mean she

won't be found someday.

It doesn't mean we will

forget her or give up looking.

We owe her our best efforts.

[gentle music]

[waves splashing]

[gentle music]

[Hazel sighs]

[coffee bubbling]

[gentle music continues]

[coffee trickling]

[gentle music continues]

[upbeat music]

Play your card in the spokes

Swerving through street lights

Puff urban burn nights on urban sights

Moving serpent life in certain stripes

Used to cope banging

skateboards and coping pipe

Before the open mic

I rode life on road dice

Yikes

Pencil hanging from

my ear on the right

It all meant something

If it meant nothing

Bumping, jumping out my

stuffing under moonbeams

40 ounce greens felt

the gutter on my sleeves

'Cause my mother worked threes

But my brothers weren't street

So neither was me

Lesson out of life

That lesson ain't free

Three stacks raised me

like a black power fist

Milky white kid, losing prejudice

It's the nurture of a

voice that makes sense

In a world that's rinsed

Future and suspense like

I ain't never had that silver spoon

Life on the moon

By the light of the moon

I put my hands up on the free fall

Now stand up, if I recall

Because I ain't never

had that silver spoon

Life on the moon

By the light of the moon

I put my hands up on the free fall

Now stand up if I recall

And bear my spirit like the thread

On the cuff of my jeans

Where I scuff 'em on streets

when I'm hitting them

[phone buzzing]

- [Hazel] Heya Bob!

- Hey Hazel!

- Hey, just sent over Dori Devers.

- [Bob] I saw it.

- Three weeks from now, the 19th.

- [Bob] Yep. Got it.

- And Angela Martino drops this Monday

at 7:00 AM, correct?

- Yep, you got it. Monday at 7:00.

- Great. Enjoy your weekend, Bob.

- You too, Hazel.

Hey, you know, I was thinking,

you wanna get.

Hazel?

[Hazel blows]

[phone ringing]

- Exhilarated, how may I direct your call?

- Hazel Hendrix for Jay.

- Oh, of course, Ms. Hendrix.

Uh, one moment, please.

- Thanks, Anise.

[door knocking]

- Yeah?

- Hazel Hendrix is on line three.

- Oh, sh*t, um.

Can I have a coffee, please?

Thank you.

There she is.

How's my favorite Sonic Sherlock?

- [laughs] Hmm.

Hey Jay.

- What's shaking in the pod sphere?

- Just finished for the week.

- Good, good.

Did you get everything front

loaded like you wanted?

- Mission accomplished.

- Well then, it's vacation time.

Congratulations.

Where are you going again?

- Funny.

- [laughs] I mean, what's on tap?

- I've got five long books,

a case of red, a case of white,

some other goodies and no deadlines.

- [Jay] Fiction or true crime?

- Uh, fiction, mostly young adult.

- Seriously?

- No, not seriously.

- Funny. What kind of goodies?

- Oh, donuts, chocolate, ice cream.

You know, sounds like a party.

- Yep, sounds like you're

ready to get drunk and fat.

- [Hazel] Que sera, sera.

- [Jay] No, but seriously,

I'm glad you have

this opportunity to relax.

You deserve a vacation, even if it's a-

- A staycation, I get it.

- You know what I like to

do when I go on vacation?

- I don't think I want to know.

- I like to reflect.

I like to reflect on where

I've been, where I'm going.

All the amazing advice

I've gotten from people who advise me.

For you, it's me,

it's your tele shrink,

et cetera, et cetera.

For me, it's, well,

it's my f*cking mother.

- And what should I reflect upon?

- Oh, I don't know,

maybe the incredible work

you've been doing the past two years.

- Thank you. Thank you.

I'll be here all week.

Remember to tip your server tip.

- But also the next steps, the next level,

not just a podcast, but a

podcasting network, okay?

Not just shows from your

home studio, but a live tour.

Okay, the, uh, the Hazel's

Eyes franchise, yeah?

- I hear you, Jay.

I've heard you, but you know,

you know that's impossible right now.

- Um, right now, right

now, that's improbable.

But, kid, no bullshit.

You're an incredible f*cking talent.

You're doing remarkable things.

Young women love you.

People are connecting with you,

but you can't go all the way

until you walk out the front door,

figuratively and literally.

- Right now, all I can give

you is the pod and the book,

that's all I can do, and the, the merch.

The merch is selling well, yeah?

- Yeah, yeah, it's great.

Your, your coffee mugs and your T-shirts

are cute and everything.

They're great for your yas q*eers,

but that's small f*cking

potatoes and you know it,

and you are not small f*cking potatoes.

Do you understand what I'm saying, Hazy?

- Don't call me that. And yes.

- Note taken.

All I'm saying is you're

bigger than this, okay?

You're better than this.

You are stronger than-

- I said I get it, Jay.

- Fair enough.

But seriously, internalize this.

[tense music]

- I will.

- Yeah, I, I, I know you

and I 100% feel like you're

placating me right now.

- Oh, no, I would never do that.

You also know this

conversation is over, right?

- Yes, I'm very perceptive,

didn't you know?

Look, kid, I'm just trying

to do the best for my client.

- I appreciate it.

- Take my advice.

- I will.

I will reflect and I will come

back with lots of fresh ideas

and a two varying degrees

more open mind in two weeks.

- I know you will.

- Hold everything, okay?

- I will do.

- Take care of yourself.

- You too, kiddo.

Oh, and my mother says thank

you for the coffee mug.

- [laughs] My pleasure.

[Jay sighs]

[gentle music]

- Yum.

[alarm beeping]

- [Security Alert] Visitor approaching.

[gentle music continues]

[doorbell rings]

[door knocks]

[birds singing]

- sh*t.

[gentle music continues]

[Hazel sighs]

[tense music]

[Hazel pants]

[Hazel groans]

[tense music continues]

[door clicks and beeps]

[phone keyboard tapping]

[notifications whooshing]

[phone keyboard tapping]

[notifications whooshing]

[Hazel sighs]

[tense music]

[feet banging]

- [Johnny] Really be scared.

- Johnny.

- You're still afraid.

- [Barbara] Stop it now. I mean it.

[Hazel panting]

[machine squeaking]

- [Johnny] They're coming

to get you, Barbara.

- Stop it!

You are ignorant.

- They're coming for you, Barbara.

- Stop it.

You're acting like a child.

- They're coming for you. Look!

[gentle music]

[water splashing]

[Hazel sighs]

- [Hazel] Hello.

- [Therapist] Hello Hazel.

Nice to see you again.

- [Hazel] You as well.

Am I your last of the week?

- Yes, I like to save my best to last.

How have you been?

- Busy, but well.

I'm on vacation now.

I really powerhoused the

back half of the month

and bought myself two weeks of solitude.

- Oh, I had no doubt.

You were determined to do so.

How do you feel?

- Weird.

Good, but weird.

I'm already a little anxious.

You know how I don't like to stop.

- What's making you anxious?

- Work is comforting for me.

When I'm working on the pod,

I have something positive to focus on.

- You focus on your work and not on you.

- Yes.

When I'm not working, I feel a void.

I feel the loneliness.

- Yet you were determined

to buy yourself these two weeks.

- Yes.

- That's a step in the right direction.

You're actively trying to change.

- Or I'm just a masochist.

- Facing one's fear is not

masochistic, it's brave.

- I don't feel brave.

I feel scared.

- [Therapist] Scared of?

- I don't know, my failures, my successes.

It's hard.

It's, it's hard being strong

for all of these women.

This crazy, amazing community of women.

I feel like it's a house of cards

and I'm the only one who sees it

and knows how fragile it is.

- You put a lot of pressure on yourself,

that's the reason you're so successful.

But it's also a double-edged sword

if you don't give yourself a break

or a chance to fail every now and then.

- Earlier my agent was telling me

I need to get out on the

road, leave the house.

I'm not living up to all that I can be.

- Do you agree with him?

- On some level, sure.

I wish I was normal.

I wish I could do what

my fellow podcasters do,

hit the road, spread the word.

Embrace the success, tour like a rockstar.

What Jay doesn't understand

is I am dealing with

immersed in dark, dangerous material,

and it, it affects me.

I love it, don't get me

wrong, but it takes its toll.

And if I have to sacrifice

having wine with my

girlfriends or going to a bar

and to meet some d*uche

bag so I can get laid,

I'm going to stay home and do my work.

My work has saved someone's life.

What the f*ck does my stupid as*h*le

LA f*cking agent know about it?

- He doesn't.

- He doesn't.

I'm sorry. I'm complaining.

These are first world problems.

- Your feelings are valid.

Your problems are real problems.

You shouldn't minimize them.

- I just need a break.

[gentle music]

- Hazel.

[Hazel panting]

Hazel.

[Hazel panting]

What are you thinking about?

- Nothing.

- Ah, I noticed you were

eyeing something off screen.

- Well, thought I could either be coy

and hide it in a coffee mug,

or else I could just be transparent.

- Yet you still feel the

need to keep it out of frame.

- Yeah, well, appearances and whatnot.

- Hazel, you're an adult.

You're at home.

You're not driving anywhere

and you're paying for this time.

- I almost took a step outside before.

- Really? And how do you feel about that?

- Pathetic.

- You don't feel encouraged

that you almost did what you

haven't done in a long time?

- No, I feel pathetic, plain and simple.

I started chatting with someone online.

- Was this chat true crime related?

- It started that way.

The Flynt murders.

Really disturbing case.

A listener had some good insights,

and then we just started chatting.

- Does he know who you are?

- As much as any other listener does.

Goes by the name of SuperSleuth77.

- This is new.

You usually stick to

business on these boards.

- It's boredom and I'm

pretty f*cking horny.

It's been a long time.

- I thought you didn't

care about d*uche bags

at bars and getting laid.

- You got me there.

But SuperSleuth doesn't really seem

to wreak of d*uche bag.

- I see.

And how does that make

you feel considering?

- This has nothing to do with that.

It's the want to scratch

an itch, that's all.

- Are you considering having him over?

- No. I don't know.

Possibly.

Given the knowledge of

true crime, seems smart.

- Any idea what he looks like

or his real name, for starters?

- No, but certainly types with gusto.

- Hmm.

- Always with the hmms.

- Hazel, how does that make you feel?

- About what?

- You know. How does this make you feel?

- I don't know what you mean.

- You do,

but we're still just not

talking about it, I take it.

[tense music]

- The hardest thing isn't

losing someone you love.

Seems impossible at the time,

but that's not the hardest part.

The hardest thing is losing

someone who loves you the most,

when you're their favorite.

Because there's no one

left to love you enough

when those that love

you the most are gone.

There's a, a thing in you

that in your core that makes you matter,

gives you, gives you purpose,

makes you get out of bed,

keeps getting chipped away

until there's nothing left,

and you wake up one day and realize

that you don't matter anymore.

Not how you need to.

Not, not how it counts for you.

[gentle music]

Work, hobbies, things you used to love,

but now feel robbed of joy

and just pointless.

There's a, there's a uniquely shaped hole

that nothing and no one can fix,

and you realize you are all you've got

and it's never enough.

It's not enough.

So to answer your question,

it doesn't make me feel anything good,

but I'm still here,

so why the f*ck not?

[gentle music]

I think I'm gonna go.

[therapist sighs]

- When would you like to meet again?

- I'll call your office.

- Please do.

And Hazel, enjoy your vacation.

- I'm sure I will.

- Take care of yourself.

[Hazel sighs]

- Girl, at least you got f*cking taste.

[phone ringing]

[phone ringing]

[phone buzzing]

I just called you.

- No, you tried to video chat,

and you know I don't go for that sh*t.

- How old are you?

Who even does phone calls anymore?

It's either text or video

chat, no middle ground.

- I hate typing sh*t

just so that it can get

lost in translation,

and typos where for some reason

I always come off like either an idiot

because of auto-correct or

a passive aggressive b*tch

because I took too long to respond,

or my messages were too short

because I was in a hurry.

And on the flip side, I

don't wanna have to go

through the process of making sure

I look camera ready every time

I wanna f*cking talk to someone.

- You always look great and you know it.

- That's not the point.

- You're f*cking impossible.

- How are you? You wanna be radio host?

- I'm good.

- So what are we drinking tonight?

- Ooh, mean little Cab Sav.

You joining me?

- [Sienna] I am now but

sticking to my brand.

Bourbon girl for life.

- Nostrovia.

- Slainte.

- How is Steven?

Steve-O.

- Stefano.

Oh, he's gone.

Ended that a week ago for the second time.

- Wait, wait, you dumped him

and then went back for round two?

- Yeah.

- Are you a glutton

for punishment or what?

- Oh, time heals all wounds,

and then I reopen them.

- Well, I'm sorry that it ended again.

- I'm not. f*ck that guy.

I mean, he was sweet and

all but he was super clingy,

and far too pretentious to get away

with that kind of character flaw.

- How did you two even

meet in the first place?

- Dating apps, like plural.

We matched on two different ones.

- Mm. Fun.

- Don't knock it.

That's how you meet people now.

You should totally get on one.

You need to get out there again.

- Um, no, thanks.

That's not my style.

- No style is your style, that's my point.

The app decides all that sh*t for you.

- And pairs you with some clingy dude

that you just kicked to the curb.

- You gotta do some leg work.

It's a numbers game.

Come on, learn the way of

the way of the swipe, baby.

- That sounds like the

last thing that I need.

- It's not good to be alone, not for you.

I worry about you.

- Any new prospects?

- b*tch, I've been on

three dates since Stefano.

- Wait, I thought you said

you two broke up last week.

- We did.

- You absolute wh*re.

- No, I found Jesus.

I'm not a wh*re anymore.

- Are you serious?

- No. And don't you sl*t shame me.

I like to go out. I like to have fun.

I know what I want and

I'm not afraid of it.

- Ouch. Thanks.

- I was defending myself,

not attacking you.

I didn't make this about you,

you did that all on your own, b*tch.

- Well, have any of the dates gone well?

- No, but they were better than Stefano,

and way better than Tyson.

- Who?

- Pre-Stefano Tyson.

I didn't tell you about him?

Oh, f*ck.

The guy dumped me, which excuse me,

is my job, by the way.

But he dumped me after a month

and told me he thinks the reason he met me

is so that he could find God,

like he legit thanked me.

- What? Why? [laughs]

- Like, apparently I'm such a deviant

and made him so uncomfortable

that it drove him to church.

He told me he would pray for me.

- Oh, wow.

- Like what the f*ck?

What a crock of sh*t.

So I'm such a terrible f*cking person

that it turned him into a Jesus freak

as a coping mechanism.

Come to think of it, maybe the results

aren't so great in the dating app world.

- Well, that's still not as bad

as me accidentally bringing

your ex-boyfriend home

for Thanksgiving back in college.

- Holy sh*t, I completely

forgot about that.

- The look on dad's face.

- He completely lost his f*cking

sh*t at the dinner table.

Um, what was his name?

- Chad.

- Of course it was.

- Oh, dad was all, "Son,

you look familiar."

And Chad just sat there and shook his hand

and said, "Yes, sir.

I've had the pleasure of

both of your daughters."

- Jesus Christ, I completely forgot

you used to go out and have fun.

- That's not funny.

- See, you did.

You can again.

I know what happened.

[phone ringing]

Stop.

[phone ringing]

- Please.

- No, f*ck off.

I mean, I love you, but f*ck off.

- Come on, I, I just wanna see your face.

[phone ringing]

[gentle music]

Hi.

- Happy now?

- Yes.

- Are you okay?

- It's just good to see your face.

- Then come over and see it in person.

- Someday. Are you okay?

- [laughs] I'm f*cking peachy.

[gentle music]

I do love you, you know.

- Bye.

[gentle music]

[Hazel sighs]

Hello, yeah, I'd like to

place an order for delivery.

[gentle music]

[phone ringing]

[phone buzzing]

Huh?

Gross.

[phone notification pinging]

[caller breathing]

[gentle music continues]

[shutters rattling]

[phone keyboard tapping]

[notifications whooshing]

Only happy thoughts.

[upbeat rock music]

How in the world

Did that face steal my girl

Now she's on her knees

And I can't break free

Death ray girl

Up my head

Death ray girl

My boyfriends did

Death ray girl

Up my face

[door beeping]

- [Security Alert] Visitor approaching.

- That was fast.

[upbeat rock music]

[tense music]

[door knocking]

Wait.

No, no.

Hey.

Hey.

[tense music]

[sighs] f*ck. God.

[upbeat rock music]

[vocalist screaming]

I feel this way

Out of this world

[door beeping]

- Ow!

Now she's on her knees

And I can't break free

[vocalist screaming]

[upbeat rock music]

[wood clatters]

- sh*t.

[gentle music]

[gentle music continues]

Here's to opening doors.

[knife scratching]

[tense music]

[bugs chirping]

[Hazel sighs]

[gentle upbeat music]

- On today's episode,

the headlines that shook

the Midwest to its core,

a serial k*ller's genesis,

and a desperate cop's manic

search to find his missing wife.

Years later, the body count has risen,

but the answers have never come.

Food coma.

To this day,

investigators still believe Tyler Smythe

is their prime suspect,

but have never been

able to connect-

Wishes she had cigarettes,

Any evidence to him.

And so join us as we dive

into the disappearance-

Wishes she still smoked cigarettes.

Of Kate Washington.

This is Hazel's Eyes.

First things first, we've

gotta pay some bills here.

Today's episode is brought

to you by helpiswaiting.com.

I grew up in a household

that never talked about mental health.

Anxiety and depression

weren't in my vocabulary.

Imagine my surprise when I grew up

and learned those moments

my parents told me "Don't worry so much"

were actually panic attacks.

I had to learn it's okay to not be okay,

and a big step in that

journey of discovery

was making the decision

to talk to someone.

You see, Cat was described as.

[tense music]

Whoa.

[tense music continues]

[Painting Man groaning]

- [Painting Man] Hazel.

Are you there?

[tense music continues]

[computer ringing]

- So at 7:45, Cat parts ways with Kit,

heads further down the street,

where she buys a coffee

and a blueberry muffin.

This is all confirmed from camera footage

from the store and street cameras.

Cat calls an Uber to the corner

of Altgeld and Kimble where she waits.

But when the Uber arrives

six minutes later,

there's no sign of Cat.

When Cat isn't home by 8:40,

Alex calls Cat's phone but it

goes straight to voicemail.

Alex never got Kit's number,

but assumes Cat was still over there,

even though the text she

received stated otherwise.

When 10:00 AM rolls around,

Alex becomes annoyed.

She leaves more messages on Cat's phone

and instructions on where to meet her

in the stadium parking lot.

Alex leaves her apartment and

headed downtown to the game.

At 5:00 PM, Alex gets

back to her apartment.

There is still no sign of

Cat, still no word from Cat,

and Alex realizes for the first time

that something is very wrong.

Alex called 911 as well as Cat's mother-

- Hey Hazel.

- She also remember that-

- Are you there?

- Cat's friend of a friend-

- [SuperSleuth] All I

see is a black screen.

- Hey, yeah.

I'm just not camera ready, you know?

- [SuperSleuth] It's okay

if you're not comfortable yet, really.

- I see you're of a similar feather,

what with the whole identity protected,

2020 interviewee lighting scheme.

- [SuperSleuth] Touche.

Thought I'd keep you in suspense.

- [Hazel] Vehicle driving away undetected.

[tense music]

[Sophia laughs]

- Better?

- [Hazel] At 7:45, Cat left the party.

We know this because she

captured on the CCTV camera

outside of the front door.

- It's okay if you're

not ready yet, really.

[tense music]

Is that, is that your show

playing in the background?

- Um, yeah. [laughs]

- You replay your episodes?

- Is it corny?

- No, I actually admire it.

You can learn a lot from your past work.

- I have trouble letting go of my work.

80% full.

Somehow it feels comforting

to be able to revisit it,

so background material.

- I remember this episode.

It was a good case.

Disturbing.

That must be hard on you sometimes.

- They definitely all take their toll.

I always wish I could do more.

- But you do enough.

You saved that girl's life.

- The detective saved her life.

- But you got the word out.

The information they needed to find her

came as a direct result of your show.

You helped save her.

I don't know how much more of

a difference you could make.

- There are no eyewitnesses.

This episode is what got me to here

and what made this show what it is.

- See?

- Yeah but-

- Hazel,

take the compliment.

- Thank you.

- You know it's funny.

- What is?

- I've listened to all your episodes.

I can instantly recognize your voice,

but it still feels like I'm hearing you

for the first time.

It's different over the phone,

or so to speak. [laughs]

I'm not sure if that made sense.

I like the sound of your voice.

- Well, you have me at a

bit of a disadvantage there.

This is the first time I'm hearing yours.

- And what do you think?

- He immediately lawyered up.

About your voice?

- Yeah, did you imagine it?

- Born in Chicago.

I might have.

- Does it live up to expectations?

- It's good.

You have a very nice voice.

- Well, that means a lot coming from you.

So, how are you?

[gentle music]

- I'm feeling good?

- Was that a question?

- Was it?

- What are you doing?

- I'm reflecting.

- About what?

- What I'm afraid of.

- And what are you afraid of?

- I don't know, but it

feels like everything.

- That's heavy.

- I wasn't always like this.

I didn't always used to be afraid.

- How did you used to be?

[dramatic music]

- I used to go out, travel.

Occasionally work would take me away,

but most of the time, I would just go

anywhere, everywhere.

[waves splashing]

My world felt small,

so I went to where I

felt small in the world.

Hotel rooms felt like home, always fresh.

Everything right where it belongs.

That feeling of a recent reset

from a moment in someone else's story

who was there before me.

It felt comfortable

and somehow sad.

[gentle music]

I started to feel alone until-

- Until what?

- Nothing.

- Surely you met people along the way?

Maybe took some of them back

to those empty hotel rooms.

[gentle upbeat music]

- Sometimes, but that was before.

[Hazel pants]

[Hazel sighs]

[Hazel sighs]

I, I remember the quiet more,

sleeping in a bed you never

had to make up in the morning.

Looking out unfamiliar windows.

Watching the sunrise.

Taking in a sunset.

Dreaming of something different,

and finding myself wandering the halls

at night without purpose.

I remember one night in Vegas,

I was wandering around, taking

in the lights, the crowd.

I always appreciated the

stillness of staying home,

your little hole in the world,

where nothing can hurt

you, where you're safe.

And I guess we take pieces of

that with us when we go away,

making temporary homes

until we can return,

like these protective trauma response

tents for our sense of comfort.

But that all falls away

when you're outside,

out from under the safety

of roof and of walls.

Life happening in real time

everywhere you turned.

I was surrounded by a constant

barrage of lights and sound

and it set my senses on fire,

and I couldn't wait to

get back to my room.

I was in a sea of people,

and I couldn't escape the feeling

that I've never felt more alone.

And I guess that was my that's it moment,

that I didn't need what everyone else did,

that I'd give energy to avoid it.

I don't know what I was looking for then,

but I remember realizing that

this wasn't for me and then...

Oh, well, that doesn't matter anymore.

- What, what happened?

- Don't really wanna talk about it,

but I realized that

I didn't like feeling lost,

and I liked my small world,

and so I stay in.

- Wait, you don't leave at all?

- No.

- What if you have to?

- I make sure I don't.

I make sure I'm in control.

- Control is an illusion.

Life has a way of laughing

when you tell it you're in charge.

- You're probably right.

Nevertheless,

it feels like there's

air conditioning vents

on the insides of my fingers.

- What? Wait, what? [laughs]

- Nothing.

I, I gotta jump off, I'm sorry.

- Wait, but hold on, wait, I wanted.

[Hazel sighs]

- Her father is part of a

digital firm in Chicago.

One lawyer would complain

it appeared that the

detectives on the case

never made the effort.

[tense music]

[Hazel scoffs]

[Hazel sighing]

[gentle music]

[gentle music continues]

[Hazel groans]

Whoa.

[tense music]

The one that got away.

Before the show begins,

a little disclaimer.

Tonight's episode is the kind

that's the hardest for me.

The reason you haven't heard a new episode

from me in a while.

This unsolved crime is one that

really got under my skin.

And I'm embarrassed to say

that I got too close to

it and lost perspective.

I don't have clarity.

I don't have resolution.

And nothing seems to

make sense to me anymore.

So please go into this knowing

this episode may forever

remain unfinished.

[tense music]

What's she gonna do by resenting them?

She deserves better than that.

She deserves her fee to drop.

She is part of us until-

[radio crackling]

[Hazel panting]

Oh, sh*t!

No f*ck

she never could have expected,

and it would haunt her forever.

And now it's time to pay some bills.

- [Hazel] On Sunday morning,

like every autumn Sunday morning,

in Chicago meet with Cat Mildridge.

She woke up.

Chicago morning.

Later on that night.

Unlike most days, she didn't wake up

at her weekday apartment, but instead.

[gentle music]

[Hazel gasping]

Hello?

- Hey, how you feeling?

- I'm, I think.

Are you really there?

- Oh, babe, are you freaking out?

Don't freak out.

- Everything's breathing.

- Uh-huh.

- How long do these last?

- Well, how many did you take?

- Um, about all of them.

- I said take half.

- I'm an overachiever. [laughs]

- Well, this isn't that

sh*t I usually give you.

This is your whole night now.

- Oh, f*ck.

- Hey, you're fine.

Just breathe.

Remember what I said?

Happy thoughts only.

You don't wanna have a bad trip.

- What's the scariest

thing that's happened

to you while you've done this?

- You don't wanna know that.

Happy thoughts.

- Darcy, please tell me.

I need context.

- It's different for everybody.

One particularly f*cked up time,

I was staring at a bunch of trees

and then suddenly they weren't trees,

they were like giant dancing skeletons

spinning pinwheels made of dead babies.

But I wasn't scared.

My first thought was, "Oh, cool,"

which is f*cked up

and probably says something

about me as a person.

But just don't give your fear any power.

- Oh, oh, sh*t.

- Hey, you're fine.

- I, I don't know that I am.

- You want me to come over?

- I don't think that's a good idea.

- I'm coming over.

Stay calm, stay positive.

Stare at the lights.

Enjoy the visuals.

He's waiting for you in the bedroom.

- What did you say?

- I said I'll be there soon.

[dramatic music]

[tense music]

[Hazel panting]

[Hazel retching]

[Hazel vomiting]

[water splashing]

[Hazel laughing]

[gentle upbeat music]

[gentle upbeat music continues]

[gentle upbeat music continues]

[Hazel sobbing]

- [Elijah] I'll never forget that day.

You somehow knew.

You just came to me and I

realized I was craving touch

and I didn't even know it.

But you knew.

You were always perceptive like that.

[gentle music]

- It's you.

- It's me.

- I missed you.

I've missed you so much.

- I've missed you.

- It's been so long.

- You look different. [laughs]

- I, I tried.

I, I tried to go on.

I tried to heal.

I tried to make it go away.

[tense music]

- [Elijah] You've come a long way.

You've done great things.

- I'm scared.

I'm paralyzed by fear and I can't leave.

Sometimes it's all I

can do to just breathe.

I feel lost, and I'm alone.

- You're not alone.

- I am.

- Why are you trapped inside?

- I can't leave.

- No, I, I don't mean like that.

Why do you keep people at bay?

You don't accept any help,

not from your sister or from your agent.

You're not even being completely honest

with your therapist.

- Don't.

You left me.

I had to put myself back together

from the damaged f*cking

scraps and wreckage and-

- Say it.

- I was, I was never present,

and I'm sorry.

I regret all the time not

spent taking in moments

I didn't know were

being taken for granted,

times I was too busy or distracted.

I, I was selfish because I

thought I always had more time.

I'm so at capacity

that I feel incapable of doing anything.

Every added drop is overflowing

and it spills out.

And because I'm so

frustratingly sensitive and,

and hyper f*cking aware of

anything bad happening again.

And anytime I think about it,

my, my senses are on fire,

and it feels like there's cinnamon

underneath my skin and I'm vibrating

because you're gone.

She's gone.

This doesn't feel like home anymore.

It's too quiet.

Even when it's not, the

silence is deafening.

f*cking wander these halls in a daze,

only to speak and say her name.

I.

She's better than.

She's even better.

[Hazel crying]

She's safe in her bed.

She's safe, she's safe.

[tense music]

- There's nothing you could have done.

There's nothing you could have done.

There's nothing you could have done.

There's nothing anybody could have done.

We did all that we could.

You did all that you could do.

It's not, it's not your fault.

[Hazel sobbing]

- I want, I want her to back.

I just wanna, I,

I just wanna hold her again.

- I know.

I know, but she's gone.

[Hazel crying]

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

But baby girl is gone.

- I, I can't remember

the last time I held her.

I can't remember.

I still can't remember.

It's funny how good memories fade,

and all the horrible things from the end

just won't go away.

- [Elijah] What did you do?

- I spent a year wishing I would die.

And every day I woke up.

One day I got up.

That was a while ago.

[cork pops]

- Do you want a glass with that?

- It comes in a glass.

[Elijah sighs]

- Hey, let's get out of the house, hmm?

It's time. It's been a month.

- It's been a month.

- We could go for a

picnic with your sister.

Have fresh air in the sunshine.

Might do you some good, huh?

Okay, look, I'm hurting too.

I'm just trying to help you.

- You can't help me.

- Well then maybe I'm

trying to help myself then.

Please do this for me.

Please.

- Why'd you have to suggest that?

- I was just trying to help.

- I know that.

- I'm sorry.

- I've been living in a pit

and I can't climb out of it,

and I want to do everything

just so I can feel alive again,

almost, almost as much

as I want to do nothing.

Absolutely f*cking nothing.

- No, you're better than that.

You're better than that.

You found your strength,

you found your courage.

[Elijah pants]

You don't need anything or anyone.

You are enough.

You are always enough.

- [Hazel] I put all I have

trying to help these women in need.

Like, I can't even help

myself step outside.

- [Elijah] What's holding you back?

What are you so afraid of?

- I never really left that day.

I feel frozen in it.

I just keep reliving

it over and over again.

- So you stay here?

- Yes.

- Inside.

- Yes.

- Where it's safe.

- Yes.

- But how can you be

really sure that it's safe?

- What?

[door banging]

What was that?

- Stay with me.

I just want you to be happy.

I've always just wanted you to be happy.

- What was that?

Is, is there someone else here?

- It's just you and me.

- I don't, I don't

understand what's happening.

This doesn't feel like a dream,

but it feels like a dream.

- You're awake.

You're waking.

- I'm sorry, I'm so

sorry for what happened.

I tried, I swear I tried.

I wasn't strong enough, I-

- You are strong enough.

- What is it? What is happening?

Is this, is this real? Are you real?

- [Elijah] It's whatever

you want it to be.

What you need.

- [Hazel] What I need is to be okay.

I want time back.

I wanna hold her again.

I wanna hold you again.

- [Elijah] You are okay.

- But you're not here.

- I'm here now.

He sat down

He said, she said

It's all there

[tense music]

[tense music continues]

- [Painting Man] What are you afraid of?

- What?

- [Painting Man] You're afraid.

What are you afraid of?

- I don't understand.

- [Painting Man] It's a simple question.

- Right now, you're frightening me.

- [Painting Man] Why?

- You're a painting

and you're talking to me,

and you are just art on display.

- [Painting Man] How does that

make me different from you?

- What am I afraid of?

- [Painting Man] Yes.

[tense music]

- Everything.

- [Painting Man] Liar.

Why do you not accept the truth?

- I-

- What are

you afraid of?

[door beeping]

- [Security Alert] Visitor approaching.

[gentle music]

- Hey, hey, it's me.

Are you okay?

Are you all right?

Are you good?

[sighs] Jesus Christ, babe.

You scared the sh*t out of me.

You're fine.

Everything is fine.

[gentle upbeat music]

- Darcy? You're here.

You're real?

- Yes, I'm real.

Everything's real.

Dude, you are some

special kind of wreckage,

wanting to go on some introverted

at home vision quest to deal

with your damage like this.

Honestly, I'm kind of impressed.

- I feel...

Everything's different.

- Yeah, these weren't

your average shrooms.

You're getting the VIP treatment, b*tch.

Going hard for your first time.

- Wait, what?

- I've got a guy.

I don't really understand

the science behind it,

but end result, that sh*t

kicks you in the teeth.

Nothing like what you read about online.

- sh*t. Oh, sh*t.

Oh, sh*t.

- Hey, hey,

you're still fine.

You just took too much,

way too f*cking much for your first go.

You have to respect it.

They're a gift from nature.

They're gonna show you

whatever you need to see.

- They, I'm in control?

- It's gonna show you

whatever it wants to show you.

That's what you'll need to see.

You just have to be open to it.

You've gotta surrender,

and you have to try to

stay in a good head space.

If you go dark, it'll go darker.

But I don't really believe in bad trips,

just a different eye-opening experience.

Keep your eyes open.

I gotta pee.

- Oh, okay.

- Drink water.

You have to stay hydrated.

You're gonna be okay.

You haven't started to

freak out too much yet,

but you have to remember

to stay in control,

or you're gonna have some

like syphilitic nightmare.

- But things have been really f*cked up.

- Just don't freak out.

You're in it now. Enjoy the ride.

- I keep having these conversations

and these scenes that play out and happen,

[water trickling]

and I know deep down they're not real,

but I feel like.

[tense music]

Darcy?

Darcy, where'd you go?

[dramatic music]

- f*ck!

Hazel, what the f*ck?

- Darcy?

- Yeah, who the f*ck else would it be?

You crazy b*tch.

- But wait, wait, you, you-

- What? I what?

- Your face.

- What about my f*cking face?

What?

It's just me.

Hazel, look at me.

It's me.

Jesus f*cking Christ, you f*cking cut me,

you f*cking psycho.

- I.

[dramatic music]

Get back.

- Hazel, what the f*ck is wrong with you?

- I swear to God, back the f*ck up.

What do you want?

- What do you mean?

- Was it you?

Did you send me the book?

- What book?

What the f*ck are you talking about?

- It was you, wasn't it?

[tense music]

And now you're here.

Are you messing with me?

- Hazel, stop.

- What kind of sick f*cking

game are you playing here?

- Hazel, listen to me.

Look at me.

You're, you're freaking out.

You're, you're tripping ba*ls

and you're freaking the f*ck out.

Just, just look at me.

I'm bleeding all over your house.

What you're seeing isn't real.

- You said everything was real.

- Everything's normal,

you're just not seeing it that way.

- What I'm seeing is what

is actually happening.

- Okay, just put down the knife.

Put down the knife and we'll talk.

Please, Hazel,

before you hurt yourself or,

or something really bad happens.

Just let me help you.

Come here. Come here.

Come here.

You're okay.

You're okay.

Everything's okay.

You're gonna be fine now.

Everything's fine.

[dramatic music]

- No!

- What the f*ck, Hazel?

- Go away.

- [Darcy] No.

Hazel!

- Just go away.

- [Darcy] You shouldn't

be alone right now.

- Please just go away.

- [Darcy] But if I go away,

who's gonna protect you from him?

[tense music]

[bugs chirping]

- [Hazel] She felt safe

at home that night,

safe in her bed,

certain she was alone in the house.

But she was about to find out

just how tragically wrong

that assumption was.

Please, no!

[tense music]

What do you want from me?

Oh, where are you?

[dramatic music]

[Painting Man sniffing]

- You are still afraid.

- I, yes.

- You have questions.

- Yes.

- Ask.

- Is this real?

- Fear.

Your fear is real.

- But I was just being chased and,

and you, here.

[tense music]

[Painting Man breathing]

Am I dying?

[Painting Man breathing]

Am I in danger?

- You assume so.

- There are no eyewitnesses

who remember Cat standing

on the intersection

of Altgeld and Kimble.

Why-But we know

she's walked there because-

- My podcast.

- You must listen.

There.

There you will find answers.

- Answers.

In my show?

[Painting Man breathing]

[tense music]

I have to fix it.

One without closure, I, if I can.

I have to solve the case,

then I can make everything

okay, then I can.

[tense music]

[dramatic music]

[Hazel groans]

[paper rustling]

[dramatic music continues]

[Hazel yells]

I can't solve.

[paper rustling]

I can't.

[Hazel panting]

[dramatic music continues]

[group chatting indistinctly]

[gentle music]

[upbeat rock music]

I won't die, so let me go

Oh no

Oh no

Walk all night

Let's just go

I wasn't ready

I wasn't ready

That's all I was there for

- There you are.

I've been looking everywhere for you.

- I'm sorry, I, I don't-

- How could you do that?

- What?

- How could you do that to her face?

- I, I, I didn't. [gasps]

What? No, I didn't.

How?

- Because you hugged her

while wearing that shirt.

- No, no.

No.

I, no.

No, no, I didn't.

- You did.

And now look at what you

did to her face. [laughs]

- I, I don't understand.

I, I don't understand any of this, what-

- Look at what you did.

- What are you?

What is this?

Who said that?

I said that.

Yes.

But what are you?

It doesn't make a sound.

It's dangerous.

There's danger in the trees.

It's not safe to go outside.

It wants to harm you.

[tense music]

But you can't hurt me.

- [Painting Man] What are you afraid of?

[Painting Man breathing]

[dramatic music]

[tense music]

- You, you are everything I'm afraid of,

but, but you can't hurt me.

We've lived our life safe since that day.

Safe behind a screen.

Safe behind a microphone.

Safe behind other people's stories.

Safe from harm.

[tense music]

I've lived my life as a prisoner.

I've walled myself up so tightly,

shielded myself from any possible harm.

I'm too safe.

I don't feel alive anymore.

- Why?

- Because I have nothing left to lose.

- Because you're afraid of everything.

- No, not that, that's not right.

I'm not afraid of everything.

I'm afraid of nothing.

I didn't find the answers in the files

'cause the unfinished case isn't there.

It's me.

It's always been me.

[tense music]

You.

You are everything I'm afraid of,

but I'm too far away.

I'm too safe.

Fear of life.

Worry of having something to lose,

something to live for.

Without you, I have nothing

that makes me feel alive.

I need you more than you want to hurt me.

[tense music]

You have to finish the case.

I'm the unfinished case.

I never, it's hanging.

On pause.

I have to finish it.

Close your story.

You have to face him.

I have to face you.

You have to let it in.

No, I have to go to it.

Go, go into the woods.

It's calling to you.

- Yes.

[tense music continues]

- I have to leave.

- It could have looked cool,

that's the thing but-

[Hazel gasps]

[car thuds]

What the hell was that?

- Pull over.

- sh*t.

sh*t.

sh*t!

- Since when do we not have a spare?

- Since we don't.

- My God. How irresponsible can you be?

- [laughs] Oh, I'm

sorry, I'm irresponsible?

- Yes. This is 1000% your fault.

- This is absolutely not my fault,

and I think I'm pretty responsible.

- Okay.

- Name one time I was irresponsible.

- Peanut.

- What?

- Why didn't we go to the vet sooner?

- That's not my fault.

Okay, okay, she's gone,

but that happened to me too, remember?

So that's not fair.

I loved her just as much as you did.

- You have no idea how I feel.

- Because you won't talk to me!

Because I have been desperately

trying to talk to you,

but you won't let me in.

You won't let me grieve with you,

and now I'm trying.

I am trying to take care of you.

And you know what?

I don't f*cking deserve this.

- What, and I do?

- Jesus, Hazel, I just, I

don't wanna fight right now.

- Well, get ready 'cause

this is happening.

- It's a f*cking tire!

And that's not my fault.

And she was sick, and

that's not my fault, okay?

Why can't you see that

I'm on your side here?

We did everything we could do.

That did not happen in a f*cking vacuum.

So, okay, you know what?

We just, we, you know what,

you just need to take a step back.

Relax, calm down.

- I'm the one who needs to calm down?

I didn't even wanna do this, remember?

- All right, you two, look.

It's just a flat, it's just a flat.

No big deal. Everybody chill.

I just text AAA.

- At least someone was prepared.

- Okay, I love you, but shut up.

He didn't know this was gonna happen.

sh*t sometimes just goes wrong, okay?

We'll walk down the path, find a clearing.

Help will be here in about half an hour,

and that's just enough time

to do what we came here to do.

The food is ready to go.

I'm hungry, so let's m*therf*cking adapt.

- The plan was to go climbing

and then eat on top of the cliff.

- Which I was never gonna climb.

That's your all's thing.

Plans change.

Come on, roll with it.

- There's gonna be so many

f*cking ticks in there.

[tense music]

[chain rattling]

Hey, hey, hey.

I am sorry about the spare.

- No, I'm, I'm sorry, it's just-

- I know, it's the worst.

But I love you.

- I don't even think that it's that.

You know how I get when things

don't go according to plan in my head.

- Expectation versus reality.

I know you.

And I miss her.

- I'm really struggling.

- I know.

- And I love you too.

[both kissing]

- See, this isn't so bad.

- Hey, come here.

Come here.

[both kissing]

- Everything's going

to be okay, I promise.

[Hazel yelling]

- [Elijah] You were so strong.

You are so strong.

[bugs chirping]

- I'm, I'm not okay.

Nothing feels okay without you here.

- You haven't moved on.

- How can I move on?

I never really came back from that day.

- You never went home.

- Not really.

- You haven't processed your grief.

- I'm not ready for it to be real.

Real means you're gone.

- I'm already gone.

It hurts to be away from you.

- Yes, so you died, and so

you get to be the victim,

but I'm the one left here broken.

- You're not broken.

[bugs chirping]

Close your eyes.

You have to accept.

[gentle upbeat music]

What do you hear?

[water trickling]

- Water, like a, like a babbling brook.

But I feel underwater,

[tense music]

but not at the bottom of the ocean,

right here in the cold, dark black.

- [Elijah] Where are you?

- [Hazel] In a current.

Everything else has disappeared.

Floating in a dark stream.

Sound is silenced,

and I'm, I'm alone,

alone in the cold and the calm.

- [Elijah] How do you feel?

- [Hazel] Sad, tranquil.

Lost but comforted.

Quiet but frightened.

I feel content,

here with the sounds of

unseen water at my breath.

- You know I want you to be happy, right?

[gentle music]

You don't deserve to hurt.

It's okay to move on.

She would want you to.

- I know.

- Hey, it's okay.

Open your eyes.

[Hazel gasps]

[bugs chirping]

[gentle music]

[birds singing]

[phone beeping]

[phone ringing]

[phone buzzing]

- Hazel, oh my God, I've

been trying to reach you.

Are you okay?

- Hiya, sis.

- What's wrong? What happened?

- I've, I've had a lot of time to,

to think, to process.

- Hazey.

[gentle music]

- I miss them so much.

So much.

And you're still here but I miss you too.

- You're scaring me.

- It's been a weird f*cking night

and I'm not okay.

- I know you're not.

- But I'm going to be.

I'm,

I'm sorry I let you get hurt.

- You never apologize to me.

You saved my life.

I wish that day never happened.

I wish that you didn't have

to experience such loss.

I wish that you didn't have to hurt.

I wish that I could take it all away,

but you're my sister.

[gentle music continues]

You're my hero.

And I'm here because of you,

so you don't apologize to me.

I love you.

You don't know the size of the beast

From the eyes in the swamp

[gentle upbeat music]

You can't shake the

sh*t from his shoes

No matter how hard you stomp

You don't know when

the worst will knock

And you don't know when the best

Will snuff the spark

Everything's loud

but everything's loud

[water splashing]

[gentle upbeat music]

In the dark

- What do you think that was in the woods?

- I don't know for sure.

- It sounds like the

manifestation of the feeling

of being suspended in reality.

You and your storyline

were pulled from the norm.

- I could feel images.

I felt meaning.

I understood the silence.

I know that probably

doesn't make any sense.

I, I don't really have a point here.

I just felt like something

I needed to share.

- I'm glad you did.

I had no idea you'd gone

through any of that.

He k*lled several women

before he came upon you all that day.

Who knows how many more you saved

because of what you did?

Just like your show.

- The birth of something

from a goodbye, I suppose.

- Er, did you get my present?

[Hazel laughs]

- That was you?

- Sorry if my previous

messages read weird.

"I'm coming to get you Hazel." [laughs]

- Oh my god, "Night of the Living Dead."

- Yeah, I know you like horror movies.

I thought I was being funny.

I sent it to your PO box

hoping they would forward it

to your home address.

I don't actually know where you live.

- If, if I told you,

would you come over?

[vocalists singing]

[upbeat music]

- I'd like that, yeah.

My name's Sophia by the way.

[vocalists singing]

[upbeat music]

- Her.

[vocalists singing continues]

[upbeat music continues]

There.

Now you're safe in your bed.

[vocalists singing continues]

[upbeat music continues]

[gentle upbeat music]

[tense music]

Everything's loud

It's a part of us now

[vocalists singing]

[upbeat music]

Everything's loud

It's a part of us now

It's a part of us now

It's a part of us

[upbeat rock music]

[upbeat rock music continues]

Lupine, lunar light

Blood dreams, second sight

She screams, that's right

That's just the way it goes

How am I remembering

Last night or anything

Uptight, shivering

From my head to my toes

Oh, your blood runs out

[upbeat rock music]

I can't save you now

I didn't think I could look

I wanna see what it takes

I wanna do it again

Now that I've got the taste

Oh, yeah

I should have stayed in bed

[upbeat rock music]

It's loose like cats in the graveyard

Misfits out in the boulevard

I'm all dressed up in red

Kiss, kiss

Just when you think about

Fact, fact

Toss through another one

I should have stayed in bed

[upbeat rock music]

Lupine, lunar light

Blood dreams, second sight

She screams, that's right
