Dead of Summer (2016): Season 1, Episode 3 - Mix Tape - full transcript

- Previously on "Dead of Summer"...
- Let's go!

All that crap written on
the walls, that's not you.

You only want him
'cause you can't have him.

We have a connection.

Deb? I don't get it.

Staff week, she was flirty,

and now it's like she flipped a switch.

Ah, little light reading there, Deputy?

Found it gutted up at
the camp the other day.

The heart ripped out.

You think because I'm wearing this...



that I'm a devil worshiper.

I want you packed up
and gone by 9:00 a.m.

Gonna miss you in Cabin 10, buddy.

You dosed me.

Oh, my God.

Hello?

Someone there?

Hello?

It doesn't matter if
you believe in Satan.

It doesn't matter if
you believe in demons.

What's important is to know

there are people out there who do,

and they are willing to do anything

to accomplish their goals.



They say teenagers are more
likely to get wrapped up in it.

I heard about this one girl.

They made her drink goat's blood.

Ew, Mom.

Can you maybe hold
the goat's-blood talk

till after breakfast?

Morning, Marta.

DWP got mixed up again,

sent your bill to our place.

I mean, if they can't get
our addresses right,

do we really believe the charges?

I mean, come on.

Thank you, Erika. Would
you like some pancakes?

Oh, thank you, but I couldn't.

Well, I could.

Have a great day, guys.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Not eating, mija?

I'm busting out of these jeans already.

Not a really good look
if I want a prom date.

Carolina, look at me.

Let me tell you
something. You are beautiful.

And kind.

And funny.

So what if you don't look
like these bimbos on TV?

Not everyone sees things
the way that you do, Dad.

Boys, the right kind of boys,

they'll notice how special you are.

It happened for your mother and me.

It'll happen for you, too.

We'll see.

Adding a little art to the wall, are we?

Hmm. This one looks better

than the one by Hard-On's bunk.

Nice move, by the way,
making people think

it's been up there
since we were campers.

That's not desperate at all.

What you call desperate,

I call creating a myth.

Don't give me that mixtape crap.

I know what I'm doing.

Fine, but you don't even know Alex.

I mean, you haven't seen him since
'84, so why do you want him?

He's just a trophy to you.

What's wrong with a trophy?

Big night tomorrow. Where should we go?

Not like we have many choices.

We have the Plaza and... the Plaza!

The Plaza?

- Townee bar. Not your scene.
- And why is that?

Something tells me you're not
a beer-and-wings type of girl.

Oh, yeah, beer and wings. Great scene.

Oh, 'cause you're way
too cool for that, right?

I think we all could use the break.

It's only been a week, and I've
already had two bed wetters.

Cabin 10 hasn't exactly

been a picnic to manage solo.

Maybe if you hadn't dosed Blotter,

you wouldn't have that problem.

Look, I didn't dose anyone,

and it was his drug dealer

that led Anton out into the woods.

Allegedly.

You think it could've been someone else?

Or nobody. For all we
know, he could've imagined him.

Ah, here he comes.

Spielberg with the schedule.

Spielberg. Well, I love some

"Raiders of the Lost Ark" action,

but I'm more of an indie guy...
Jarmusch, Lee, Scorsese...

Joel, schedule?

Who's got the night off
and who's stuck here...

Working the most awesome
movie night we've ever had?

Seriously, Joel, who's
helping you with said movie night?

Blair, Jessie, and...

Drew.

- Can't wait.
- Bring that enthusiasm.

So, movie night will be fun.

So, Alex,

you should stop by the art studio later,

if you're free.

Yeah, we'll see how my day goes.

Cricket?

Cricket.

You've got to be kidding me.

Don't be so dramatic.

Last time I checked, you were a virgin.

It's just a little experiment.

Cricket, you don't want sex.

You want... a mixtape,

someone that's into you
because they know you.

Nope, just the sex, thanks.

You're better than this.

Wow. That's creative. Cool.

Oh, that's awesome. Good work.

Very funny.

I didn't write that.

Aardvark.

Aardvark. Armadillo.

Armadillo.

Mm. It's camp. Try enjoying nature.

Hmm. Looks like I've got
a date to plan for.

Yeah, but how would Alex know that...

He's smart, and if it wasn't
you, who else would it be?

French fry for your thoughts?

I'm still thinking about
that kid up by camp,

you know, what he said,

that someone was going to die.

This deer, Dave, now this kid...

Something's happening by that lake.

And one of the counselors
told me they found

an old cabin out there,
some real creepy stuff.

I was gonna go check it out later

if you could spare me from
speeding-ticket duty for awhile.

Does it matter what I say?

I thought I'd give you
the courtesy of asking first.

Yeah, thanks for that.

So you really believe this is
all tied together, Garrett?

I don't know.

But I do believe that
something is going on at that camp.

Hello?

Ugh!

Ouch!

- Ah!
- Not a tetherball girl?

Uh, I was better at the horseshoes.

Hey, Cricket, do you want
to come and take my place?

Cricket?

Are you okay?

Yeah. I'm fine.

Well, I had a bad dream last night.

What happened?

There were these people wearing masks,

and there was a bonfire.

I think they were doing
some kind of ritual.

My boots were sinking into the ground

like it was quicksand.

- I know it sounds ridiculous but...
- No.

A-After all that happened
with Dave and then Anton,

I think we're all a little jumpy.

Well, I've had nightmares before.

This was different.

When I woke up, I couldn't
find my boots.

Your boots? During week one of camp?

Maybe you didn't even bring them.

Look...

my first night here, I thought
I was seeing things, too.

But the truth was it was in my head

because I was upset
about something else.

And once I realized that,
I stopped seeing them.

You will, too. Don't worry.

Hi, Garrett.

Garrett?

I mean Deputy. I mean hi.

Garrett's fine.

Uh, so, what brings you out here?

Tying up some loose ends.

Saw some campers unrolling
the big screen on the lawn.

Yeah, it's movie night.

Remember those well.

Hope it's something good.

I actually have the
night off, headed into town...

some place called
the Plaza. You know it?

Know it? My mother's
worked there for years.

Will you be out tonight, too?

I'm on popcorn duty.

That's too bad.

Hey!

Little jumpy, are we?

Did you see that?

Those little pervs were spying on me.

I could see why. You're hot.

Yeah, to the prepubescent set.

Blotter thought so.

Hey, one, I was never
into him, and, two, he's gone.

His bunkmate, on the other hand...

You really think Alex is going
to be waiting by the lake?

It's almost noon. Time to find out.

Worst party ever.

But at least there's refreshments.

Do you want one?

Six months till summer.

I'm wearing a bikini at camp this year.

Ah. So, you're going to be a thin slut.

Excellent.

I'm going to be noticed.

Not one guy has come up
and talked to me tonight.

Who cares? In six months,

we're never going to see
any of these losers again,

so I say we get out of
here and go see a movie.

"Scrooged" again?

Yeah.

Sure. Whatever.

All right. Let's go.

- Cricket, right?
- Yeah.

I'm Travis.

Nice to meet you,
Travis. We were actually leaving.

Come on, Cricket.

This is my house. I could
give you the tour.

It's a garage.

There's an inside.

Would you like to see it?

Lead the way.

Heading in for a dip?

You're that drug dealer, right?

Well, my friends usually call me Damon.

We're not friends.

Ooh. That's not very nice, is it?

Well, you don't seem
like a very nice boy.

You're not exactly
giving me a chance, are you?

Get out of here, Damon.

Last I checked, this lake
was open to the public.

All right. All right. We're going.

And you think I'm the one
who isn't very nice.

You okay? He try to hurt you?

I'm fine.

You were right. It wasn't Alex.

So what?

You're just gonna stay in and mope?

It's your night off.

Go put on a dress,
show off that hot bod,

and if Alex doesn't
notice you, someone else will.

Can't I just go to movie night with you?

Um, I have my own agenda,
and comforting you is not on it.

So, get your skinny ass
dressed. This night is not over yet.

Damn right. It's just getting started.

Can we help you?

You can't. But you can.

Maybe something family friendly

that the kids will love,
like "E.T." or "Dumbo".

No. Let's go edgier.

Edgier at camp?

Well, I'm not talking
David Lynch "Blue Velvet" edgy,

but maybe gateway edgy.

Okay.

"Five Easy Pieces," "Harold and Maude."

I'm not really sure that
our kids are ready

for a film about an
older woman and a younger man.

Come on. It's about
so much more than that.

No, I get that.

I love Hal Ashby.
Have you seen "Shampoo"?

Of course.

You really were born about
20 years too late, weren't you?

The best things in life are timeless.

Mm.

Hey.

Yeah?

You know, most people,
they don't understand me.

But I feel like I could
talk to you all night.

- Deb?
- Yes, sweetheart?

It's Jessie. Her grandma died.

Oh.

Yank it somewhere else, dweebs!

Don't. Don't. Don't.

Don't.

Don't.

Don't.

Don't.

Don't.

Don't.

Go.

Don't go.

Don't go.

Hey.

Jessie.

I'm so sorry about your grandmother.

Thank you.

Please let me know if
there's anything I can do.

Amy, I have a humongous favor to ask.

Yes, sure.

Could you please take
Jessie's shift tonight?

I think she could
really use a night off work.

Of course.

Thank you. Okay, everyone, have fun.

Be safe.

Okay. Let's go, guys.

The Plaza calls. Come on, Cricket.

There's a screwdriver waiting
with your name on it.

Well played.

I can't believe you made
me lie about your grandma.

She did die... eight years ago.

Yeah, hi. This is Deputy Sykes.

I need to get into the archives.

Does the library have any pieces
on this town's history?

I'm looking for stuff
from the 1860s, 1870s, maybe.

Anything unusual that
happened at the lake around that time.

Great.

I can be down first
thing in the morning.

Thank you.

Buy me a drink, townee?

So, where is it?

The screwdriver with my name on it.

How'd you know I like those?

Well, you drank O.J. as if it
was water when we were campers.

Hey, remember when you puked orange

in the middle of color wars?

Yo!

Uh, excuse me.

I got to, you know...

Your boyfriend leave you all alone?

He's not my boyfriend.

Mm. His loss.

Want a brewski?

Sorry, I don't hang with people

who use the term "brewski."

Just one sec.

What are you doing?

He's a townee.

I didn't come here to meet townees.

Hey, don't knock townees, okay?

They're not all bad.

Okay, "A," he's not exactly hideous.

He wants you. You want Alex.

Use him to make Alex jealous.

So evil.

I love it.

Thank you.

Yeah. How 'bout that brewski?

What do you say, Deputy?

A little Foosball for old time's sake?

So... you want to get some fresh air?

I could use a smoke.

We could go for a
ride. My Firebird's out back.

My mom warned me about people like you.

Didn't your mom also tell you not
to judge a book by its cover?

You know, you have beautiful hair.

You ever think of letting it down?

May I?

Suits you.

So, you gonna spend all night trying
to make that idiot jealous,

or are you gonna let me take you
for a ride around the block?

One ride.

This is a travesty.

Nobody takes care of film anymore.

Look at these marks.

"Time Bandits" is an American classic.

It deserves respect.

I loved that film.

Robin Hood, Napoleon... all that
time travel was really cool.

Oh, damn it. Would
you hand me that splicer?

Yeah.

You know, some people say

all that stuff was in that kid's head.

I don't believe that.

Isn't reality all in our heads, too?

Yeah. That's a good point.

We're all set.

Awesome. I can't wait to watch it again.

Aren't you upset?

About what?

That you're stuck here tonight,

away from Sykes.

He'll be fine.

I'm sure Jessie's all over
him right now, anyway.

Her grandma just died.

Her grandma didn't die.

She just didn't want me around,

getting between her and Garrett.

Why didn't you say anything?

Because camp is about more
than finding a guy for me.

It's about having friends,
making friends,

and the last way to do that
is by making an enemy

out of someone like Jessie.

You are super Zen.

Thanks for walking me home.

I just couldn't deal with school today.

Six more months, Cricket.

Six more months.

Carolina.

I can explain.

Don't... Don't tell
your mother. She'd die.

Carolina!

Kind of fast, no?

Geez, slow down!

You.

It was you.

Let me out. Aah!

Oh!

Aah!

What the hell are you doing here?

Her friends were worried about
her getting in the car with you.

- I can't imagine why.
- He's been stalking me!

Stalking? Come on.
She was begging for it.

What did you just say?

Every camp has a whore.

All right. Okay.
Come on. Come on. Enough.

Let's go. Come on. That's enough.

So, I thought,
"Movie night. Sure. Why not?

I like movies and I like nights and..."

Do you, I-I mean, like
either of those things?

Well, I love movies,
but I haven't seen this one.

Have you seen "Time Bandits?"

Because Joel's been going
on and on about it, and I...

What?

So...

I didn't think this is
how the night would end.

It hasn't ended yet.

Oh! Oh!

Oh! Ow!

Ugh. Are you okay?

- Yeah. Are you?
- Yeah.

Oh.

Oh.

You made this?

No.

That's from Blotter's bunk.
He left his crap here.

Do you really think I drink
out of a baby bottle?

Come here.

Mm. Mm.

I stopped by The Sharper Image
at the mall the other day,

and I found something.

It's perfect for your father.

Have you seen those little
rotating tie racks?

They... Cricket?

- Sweetie, what is it?
- Mom...

there's something I have to tell you.

It's okay.

Talk to me.

Dad, he's...

I saw him with Erika.

I'm sorry you saw that, honey.

Wait, what? You knew?

I know. Honey, I know.

Well, why don't you do something?

Like what? Get a divorce?

Start dating again at my age?

But, Mom, you deserve better.

You don't know what goes
into a marriage, Carolina.

So, what?

You just look the other way?

Don't you have any self-respect?

One of these days, you'll realize,

women like us,
sometimes we have to settle.

- I got to go.
- What?

I got to leave. I'm sorry.

Hey, hey, wait, wait. Wait.

Hey, what did I do? Cricket!

I feel terrible.

I never should have let Cricket
get in the car with him.

You didn't know.

I thought we were walking to your cabin.

We are. In a minute.

Ah, movie night.

Are they still putting
too much salt on the popcorn?

Stillwater tradition.

Some things never change.

No, they don't.

Here it is.

I found it the other day.

I completely forgotten about it.

Do you remember when we carved that?

Yeah, I do.

Do you remember what happened
after we carved it?

You know, that
wasn't just our first kiss.

That was my first kiss.

Ever.

Mine too.

I should head back.

Well?

Best... night... ever.

And you?

You got a mixtape, literally.

I was so wrong about Alex.

No.

You were right about Blotter.

And you were right about me.

Turns out I do want a mixtape.

And now he's gone.

Well, there's always next summer.

Come on. Let's go.

Hey, Jessie.

- What's that?
- Cookies for you.

You know, I know exactly how you feel.

My grandma died when I was 8.

It was the worst.

We made them for movie night.
They're still fresh.

I knew you were out,
so I saved you some.

When my grandma passed,
after the funeral,

my best friend brought me cookies

and tried to make me feel better.

And the crazy thing is,
they kind of helped.

So I hope they help you,

even just a tiny bit.

Thank you.

Okay.

I don't like it any more than you do,

but it's he said/she said.

Having a red marker in your
glove box ain't a crime.

Neither's owning a knife.

- We had to let Crowley go.
- Read this.

- What is it?
- Read it.

It's from a soldier from 1871.

It's his journal.

Checked that out of the library.

They've got collections going back

farther than you'd think.

Uh... "The spiritualist cult

led by the imperious leader
known only as Holyoke

met a horrific end
at our hands last night.

Holyoke's followers believed
Lake Stillwater

held supernatural power

and were trying to summon said power

through an occult ritual

before their deaths brought an end

to their unholy pursuits."

Unholy pursuits?

Apparently, when they found him,
he was playing the piano.

The villagers
dragged him out, killed him,

burned down his cabin till there
was nothing but ashes left.

Uh, newfound interest
in local history, Deputy?

What if I told you I was standing
in that cabin yesterday?

Well, I'd say that there
are lots of old, deserted,

uh, hunting cabins in these woods.

Look...

I can see you believe this, Garrett,

and I want to believe you, but,
I mean, you're basing this on...

on some journal from over a century ago?

A story like that would've
been in the papers.

People would've known.

What if someone
didn't want people to know?

Hey.

Hey.

Projector's all packed up.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

What's with the box?

It's a reminder.

Of...

It's a reminder that no matter what,

you should never stop
chasing your dreams.

My life took a wrong turn.

I didn't become the person
that I wanted to be.

This, uh, reminds me of when
things were different.

What's that?

It's an old piece of junk.

Thank you for packing up the projector.

You're welcome.

Mm-hmm.

I'll see you later.

Yes.

What does a cult from 1871

have anything to do with that lake?

You didn't finish reading.

Uh... "Amid many disturbing sights

we found along the lake, one
in particular has haunted me..."

"...a deer carcass."

"Its heart was torn out in a ritual

that could only be called evil."

That's the thing about history, Sheriff.

It repeats itself.

Ah, you didn't call it.

Oh, nice.

Oh, we're playing.

Yes! That was amazing!

Oh! Good try, man.

Good try.

All right, serve it up.

We found her. Now take her.

Her blood will bring yours.

Sorry.

I got it.

Amy!

Amy, come on!

- It's a lightning storm!
- Everybody, inside!

Hey, lightning storm! Come on,
come on, come on! Hurry up!

Get inside!

Come on, guys!

Amy!

Amy!

It appears we were wrong.

It's her.
