God Friended Me (2018): Season 2, Episode 21 - Miracles - full transcript

- Previously
on "God Friended Me"...

- An issue showed up
in your final review.

Any condition,
no matter how small,

disqualifies a candidate.

Dr. Chang wants you to start
your next round of treatment.

- I was on my way to tell Cara

that I was still
in love with her.

I knew she was happy
and that she had moved on.

- He posted it on your website

where everyone who subscribes
to you can see it.

- He still loves you.



I can't be the odd man out.
I'm sorry.

- Adam.
[sighs]

Uh, you're Marsha Smith, right?

I know Alphonse is
the father of your son, Core.

- Don't call him my father.

He's never been anything
close to that.

I run R&D for DARPA.

Seven years ago,
I created an algorithm,

but it was stolen.

- Corey lied to us.

When we were hacking the God
Account, he launched a virus.

- That's why it was glitching.

- If we don't figure this out
in the next 24 hours,

the God Account
will be destroyed.



[knock at door]

- Hey, I got your message.
I don't understand.

I mean, why would Corey want
to destroy the God Account?

- I have no idea.

- I thought he was on our side.
- Yeah, so did we.

But from what I can tell,

we got 12 hours before
the account gets wiped out.

- Well, can you stop it?
- I don't think so.

I mean, at best I'm hoping
to slow it down.

Good news is what Corey did

punched a hole
through the firewall,

so we can monitor
what's going on.

But we can't see anything
important about the account.

- We were gonna
tell you this last night,

but you never showed up.

- Uh...

Adam and I decided
to go to dinner.

Lost track of time.

[phone chimes, buzzes]

- Whoa.
What the hell?

I think I got
a Friend Suggestion.

- Think?
- Yeah.

- Damn, it must be the bug.

- Any way to decipher
who it might be?

- Yeah, I mean,
I can try a few things,

but, Miles, the truth is, like,

unless we can convince Corey
to stop this...

like, this might be
our last Friend Suggestion.

[somber music]

- Okay, well,
I-I'm gonna go talk to him.

- Do you want us to come with?
- No, I got this one.

♪ ♪

[door opens]

[knock at door]

- Miles.

Look, whatever you're planning
to say,

it's not gonna change my mind.

- Maybe, but I'm not leaving
until I do.

So was destroying
the God Account

your plan the whole time?

- No, my plan was
to get my code back.

But when that failed, I had
to make sure it was destroyed.

- Why?

- When my code was stolen,
I lied to DARPA to cover it up.

If they find the God Account,

they'll put together
what happened,

and my career is over.

Not to mention, I'll most
likely face criminal charges.

- The God Account has been out
in the world for years.

Why would they discover it now?

- Because we used
DARPA's computer

to try and hack its firewall,

which means there's
a digital trail.

- You had to know that
going in.

- I did.
- [scoffs]

- But it was worth the risk
to try to get my code back.

Now, please, go.

- Wait, wait.
Look at this.

This is
my new Friend Suggestion.

This is a real person
who needs my help.

You let the God Account
be destroyed,

who knows how many people
will suffer from it?

There are other lives at stake
beyond your own.

[dramatic music]

- [laughs]
Hey, buddy.

C.J., Megan, this is Miles.

- Hi, it's a pleasure
to meet you.

- You too.
- So big day.

You excited to head back
to school, see your friends?

- I guess.
- Hey, you know what?

I took the whole day off.

I was thinking
we could do something later.

- I got a lot of homework
to catch up on, so...

- Yeah, yeah.
Well, maybe this weekend.

- I should get going.

- I could drop you
on my way to work.

- I'd rather walk.

Nice to meet you, Miles.

[door opens, closes]

- Baby, it's gonna be fine.

Getting back to his routine's

gonna be the best thing
for him.

- It's not about his routine.

It's about what happened

and the fact that you won't
talk to him about it.

- There's nothing
to talk about.

He needs to move on from this.
- Him or you?

[solemn music]

♪ ♪

- Sorry about that, Miles.

My son's been going
through a pretty rough time.

- You mind if I ask
what's going on?

- A month ago,
C.J. was at a skate park.

Fell off his board,
wasn't wearing a helmet.

He had a pretty bad
head injury.

Doctors had to put him
into a medically induced coma

for a few days
till the swelling went down.

- I'm so sorry to hear that.

♪ ♪

- Listen, Miles,
I know how important

your Friend Suggestions are,
but I have to protect my family

which means I need
to be there for them.

I can't risk DARPA finding out
what I did.

I'm sorry, but the God Account
is gonna be destroyed,

and there's nothing you or
your friends can do to stop it.

[tense music]

♪ ♪

- Thanks for meeting me.

I want to talk to you
about something.

- Yeah.
Yeah, me too.

- You first.
- Okay.

Um...

Adam and I broke up.

Or, more accurately,
he broke up with me.

- Oh, honey, I'm so sorry.

I thought things
were going so well.

- Yeah, they were...

until he found out that Miles
was still in love with me

and wants to get back together.

- Well, you can't be
that surprised

he still has feelings for you.

- Yeah, but this goes
way beyond feelings.

I mean, he said that

walking away from us was the
biggest mistake of his life.

I mean, I don't know
what to do with that.

- Well, have you talked to him
about it?

- [sighs softly]

- Cara, he's gonna
find out eventually

that you and Adam aren't
together, and then what?

- I don't know.

I mean, I was planning
to talk to him

when I saw him this morning,
and then...

I just didn't.

I don't know why.

- Maybe you don't want to
answer the inevitable question

he's gonna ask
when he finds out.

- What do you mean?

- Cara, when we love somebody,
we generally want to know

whether or not
they love us back.

So do you?

- I wish I still did.

[sighs] I moved on.
I had to.

- I guess the only question is,
are you gonna tell him?

[somber music]

♪ ♪

- I mean, yeah, Rakesh,
he doesn't care

about saving the God Account,

and I'm not sure
how to convince him otherwise.

- Well, look, I might have some
pretty good news on that front.

I was able to decipher
the last name

of your new Friend Suggestion,
and guess what.

It's Smith.
- Wait, as in "Corey Smith"?

- Well, you know, it's probably

the most common last name
there is,

but, yes, in this case,
he's our most likely candidate.

- Which means he has a problm
I can fix.

Not a bad way to show him

how important
Friend Suggestions are.

Change his mind
about saving the God Account.

Actually, I might.

I'm Miles.

We just met at your house.
I'm a friend of your dad's.

- W-what are you
doing here?

- Well, I saw you from
across the street, and, um...

Aren't you supposed
to be in school?

Hey, look, I do not want
to tell you how to play hooky,

but there are way more fun
places to go than here.

You know, my dad's
the bishop of New York.

I pretty much grew up
in the Church.

Why come here?

- I don't know.

My parents aren't religious.

Guess I just wanted to come in,
check it out.

- You know, most people
who come to church

are looking for answers.

Maybe I could help.
- Trust me, you--you can't.

- No, trust me, I'm pretty good
at helping people.

Come on, you are sitting
in a church by yourself.

What do you have to lose?

- I was in a accident.
Hit my head pretty bad.

- Did he ever mention
what happened

while I was in my coma?

- No.

- Angels?

♪ ♪

- When I was in the coma,
an angel spoke to me,

told me things
about my dad growing up,

his last football game
in high school.

- Have you talked to your dad
about this?

- I tried to tell him,

but whenever I told him
what the angel wanted me to do,

he stopped listening.

He said that it never happened
and that everything

will be fine once I forget
about it, but I can't.

- C.J., what do you think
the angel wants you to do?

- Make my dad
forgive his father.

But I have no idea
how to do that

because he doesn't
even believe me.

Lucky you were walking by

He told you what happened
when he was in a coma.

- [inhales deeply]
He did.

- The doctors told us
hallucinations aren't uncommon

for coma patients to report
when they wake up.

We're just trying to help him
get past it, move forward.

- By not talking about it.
- Excuse me?

- C.J. told me
that you wouldn't listen

to what he need to tell you--
the story that he heard.

Now, how is C.J. supposed
to get through this

if he can't do that?

He needs to know that
you can be there for him.

- I am.

Listen, I appreciate
your concern,

but this is none
of your business.

- Actually, it is.

Rakesh was able to decode

the last name
of my Friend Suggestion.

It's Smith.

Now, I assumed
that it was for you,

but it seems pretty obvious
that C.J. needs help.

- No, it's not.

What's obvious is
your desperate attempt

to try to use my son
as a way to convince me

to save the God Account.

- You just said
that it was lucky

that I walked by when I did.

But that wasn't luck--
that's the God Account.

And if it sent me C.J.'s name,
then that means I can help him.

- You believe
in angels now, Miles?

- Of course not,
but your son does.

And he thinks
he's supposed to get you

to reconcile your relationship
with your father.

- I know what he thinks,
but it's never gonna happen.

Stay away
from my family, Miles.

♪ ♪

[door opens]

- Hey.
- Hey.

- I thought we were supposed
to meet at the hospital

for Ali's appointment.

- We were, but I just needed
to talk to you,

if you have a minute.

- Sure.
What's going on?

- I got
a new Friend Suggestion.

It's for Corey's son, C.J.

- Have you figured out
what you're supposed to do?

- Yeah, he's convinced that
he's supposed to repair

Corey's and Alphonse's
relationship.

- Tall order, but that does
sound like the God Account.

- Oh, it does,
but here's the thing--

C.J. was in a coma,

and when he came out of it,
he claims he spoke to an angel,

and that's who told him
he needed to do this.

- Well, I've spent
enough time volunteering

in intensive care wards
to have heard similar stories.

- Dad, do you really believe
people have spoken with angels?

- I do.

But I also understand that it
can sometimes simply be a way

for people to process

and make sense
of a traumatic experience.

- Well, that's the thing--

C.J. hasn't even been able
to process it

because his dad
won't talk to him about it.

I mean, the anger Corey has
for Alphonse runs so deep,

he won't let it go...

even if that means
helping his son.

Dad, I don't know
how to get through to him.

- I'm not sure that you can.

At the end of the day,
the only person

who can take the pain away
is the one who caused it.

- [sighs]
Alphonse.

Uh, Dad, can you call him
and see of he'll talk to me?

- Of course. I'll call
on the way to the hospital.

♪ ♪

Remember, this new treatment
will probably take some time.

- I know.

- And no matter what Dr. Chang
says, we'll get through this.

- Mm-hmm.

in silence.

- Hello, hello.
- Hello.

- Hi.
- Hi.

I have good news, Ali.

Your latest scan shows
the new treatment worked.

- [sighs]

- Okay, what does
that mean exactly?

- Your tumor has
shrunk considerably.

This is what we've
been hoping for.

- Our prayers have
been answered

just like we knew
they would be.

[laughing]
- [chuckles]

[chuckles]
Okay, uh, what's the next step?

- Well, the next step is
scheduling your lumpectomy.

Based on these results,
you're ready for surgery.

Hey.

What's going on?

Ali's tumor shrunk.

She's ready for surgery.

- Dude, are you serious?
- Yes.

- Oh, my God, Miles.
I told you she was tough.

Oh, bro.
I'm so happy, man.

- Yeah.

- Do you guys,
like, need a second?

- [chuckles]
- Pulled Zack in

to see if he had any ideas
on how to stop what Corey did.

- Which I would if we knew
what we were dealing with.

- Which is why
we need Corey's help.

Any progress
on changing his mind?

- Not yet, but I do think
that his son, C.J.,

is my new Friend Suggestion.

- Oh, okay, well,
whatever the problem is,

hopefully it's a quick fix
'cause the clock is ticking.

Over 50%
of the God Account's infected.

So far, it hasn't gone
to the base code.

- But when it does,
it's--it's game over.

- The only person who
can stop that is Corey.

[phone buzzes]

- It's Corey.

Hey, Corey.
What's up?

- I need to know

what you and my son talked
about at the church.

- Why? Is everything okay?
- No, C.J.'s gone.

I went to check his bedroom.
He wasn't there.

What exactly did he say to you?

- He told me about the angel,
how he spoke to him,

and it told him stories
about when you were a kid.

- Wait, what?

- Yeah, about, uh, your last
football game in high school.

That was one of the stories
he wanted to tell you.

- You think that's where he is?

- It'll be a good place
to start.

Where'd you go to high school?
- Harlem Central.

We played all our home games
there at the stadium,

including my last one.

to come here?

- No, they told me a story
about when you played football.

I just thought--
I just thought if I came here,

maybe they'd talk to me again

and just tell me more
so I'd know what to do.

- What was the story?
- It was your last game.

you never met your dad,

you were hoping he'd come,

the winning touchdown.

I sure as hell can't explain
what's going on.

If the God Account
sent me C.J.'s name,

You're talking
about forgiving the man

who left me and my mother

- Corey, I know how difficult
the idea of letting Alphonse

back into your life may be, but
we're talking about your son.

And if you can't do this
for C.J.,

the fracture that is already
happening between you two--

it's only gonna grow.

want that to happen.

- Of course not,
but you're acting

like forgiveness is
some kind of choice.

the only way you could help

one of your Friend Suggestions
was to believe in God?

I'm betting you couldn't do it
even if you wanted to

Corey is on our side, and
he needs us to help his son.

into something
called a "heat pack."

I don't know.
Does that make any sense?

- Zack, why didn't we
think of that?

- Do we have to come up

- Guys, well,
what's a heat pack?

- A heat pack basically finds
the point of the code that

hasn't been infected yet and
slices it off to protect it.

the markers,

but we don't have
a lot of time.

- Okay, so how long
is that gonna take?

a few hours just to code.

for a little God Account help

to get Corey and Alphonse
to reconcile,

well, you're on your own

that Corey's in custody,

a family reunion right now

What the hell have you and your
friends gotten my son into?

into anything, okay?

It was his idea
to use the DARPA computer

to hack the God Account.

I don't know how they found out
or what they know.

- Well, clearly, they know
enough to send a federal agent

to bring him in
for questioning,

many options.

we have any.

- When you spoke with Alphonse,

did he say who he was gonna
call to try to help Corey?

- No, and I didn't ask.
He just said meet him here.

- I can't believe he used
to work for the CIA.

- Clearly, there's a lot about
Alphonse that we don't know.

- Arthur. Miles.

I've spoken to some friends
in the DOD.

They're trying to ascertain
just how serious this is.

- I think this is
pretty serious.

- I should hear
something shortly.

I assume you have
a few questions for me.

I'm not sure how many
I can answer, but I can try.

Come on.

- We confiscated your computer.

We know you were connected
to the building's Wi-Fi

at the time of the breach.

- Which doesn't prove anything.

- It's only a matter of time
before we can.

You need to talk to me.

- If it's all the same to you,

I really prefer
to wait for my lawyer.

- So how long were you
with the agency?

- 20 years.
- 20 years.

And I never knew you had
this whole other life.

- I wouldn't have been
very good at my job if you did.

- Hmm.

- The kind of work I did,

the security clearance
I needed to maintain,

it didn't allow me to be honest
with the people in my life.

- And that's why
you left Marsha and Corey.

You had to choose
between service and family.

- I worked
in counterintelligence.

I couldn't just walk away

and put others
at significant risk.

- So why didn't Marsha
ever tell Corey the truth

about why you left?

- The only truth that mattered
was that I left.

And it was safer for everyone

if he was insulated
from what I did and who I was.

- And that's why
you never reached out

to Corey growing up.

- Yes, and by the time
I left the agency,

he was already grown.

I'd missed it all.

Hopefully...

the life I chose...

the life I gave him up for

might at least be able
to help him now.

[phone buzzing]

This is the call
I've been waiting for.

If you'll excuse me.

- Once we open
