Grace (2014–…): Season 1, Episode 1 - Episode 1 - full transcript
It is a monumental occasion for the Chan family as their second daughter, Mimi, prepares to wed. But looks can be deceiving, and in spite of the happiness and joy surrounding the occasion, a catastrophic event will tear the family apart.

Please don't do that.
Good morning.

Vivian: What time is Mom coming?
Roy: I don't know. She
should be here already.
Vivian: I'll go find her.
Welcome to the Egress, ma'am.
Thanks.
We're checking in.
I'll help you with bags.
Thank you.
Hey! Hmm?
What's your name?
Uh, I'm sorry, but, um...
It's for the reservation.
Oh, yeah. It's Vivian Chan.
Vivian Chan. Got it.
Can I ask you something?
Sure. Is what they say
about the fourth floor true?
Is it really, um, haunted?

It's not too late to call it off,

What?
I'm joking.
Lisa. (knocking)
Coming!
Mimi! Hi! (laughs)
Where have you
been? I came with Dad.
Hi, Lisa! Hello.
(laughs softly) Where's Mom?
She's downstairs
getting my dress.
Hmm.
Nice room, Meems. Mm.
Where's yours? Down the hall,
I think.
Maybe you could drop
the bags in her room?
Of course.
What was that?
What was what?
Mom! Mimi: My dress!
Hi, sweetie.
Are you sure about
these flowers?
Don't listen to her.
The dress is stunning.
You're going to look amazing.
(quietly) Not exactly helping.

Come on, you.
I need to give you some
advice about bellboys.

Vivian: Nothing

You know,
I can get into a lot of trouble for this.

All right, but stay close to me.

Come.
Vivian: What
happened to this place?
It's a long story.
I think I'll tell you once
we get back down.
Come on!
(quietly) You can tell me now.
I'm a big girl.
The original owner had
an affair with the maid.
It was a long time ago.
Then?
Well, I guess he ended it.
He fired her.
Vivian: Mm. Ouch.
Mm. Anyway,
she begged to stay...
(whispers) but he said no,
so she hung herself in
the suite down the hall...
then became yuan gui.
Ooh.
(whispers) Come on. Ew.
Ricky: I mean,
it was pranks at first,
but then she
started getting nasty.
Eventually, someone died.
So,
they had to shut down the entire floor.
Vivian: She killed a guest?
Ricky: Not exactly.
It was actually
the original owner.
They found him
hanging from the ceiling
exactly the way that she died.

Hey.
Mimi: Nelson?
What are you doing here?
I came to see how

It's not bad luck. It

Not seeing the bride
before the ceremony

Nelson... Okay.

Maybe it's there.

I know. Look,
I just went to see Dr. Wong,
and he gave me a little
something to help with the anxiety.
I don't think bringing him
into this is a good idea.
Look, it's duloxetine.
I looked it up online.
It's pretty gener‐‐ Nelson.
Okay, look.
Mimi: I can't find
it! It's not here!
Mimi: Why is this
happening to me?

How's Mimi?
Is this the dress you're
wearing to the wedding?

(footsteps approach)
(Angela speaks Mandarin)
Mimi seems all right so far.
Vivian is following
the family tradition.
What does that mean?
Lisa caught her
flirting with the help.

Lisa: What happened?
I heard her cry out,
and when I got into the room,
I found her on
the bedroom floor.
I think she must have
fainted or something.
I called Dr. Wong and
he came right away.
I'm sure this is his fault.
Some kind of panic attack?
I don't know.
Did Mimi say anything
about what happened?
Nelson: Um,
when she finally came around,
she was really upset,
and, um,
she wasn't making a lot of sense.
She kept going on about
someone being inside the room.
Lisa: She thought there
was someone in here?
Yeah, and she said something
about blood and glass,
but there wasn't anything
like that. I checked.
Is she all right?
She'll be fine.
Henry, may I see her?
Dr. Wong: Of course, Ange.
What happened?
Well, given Mimi's history
and the stress of the wedding,
it's rare, but not impossible

That you gave her.
Lisa. How do we know
what he really gave her?
Lisa, enough.
You know what
they say about him.
I said enough. Dr. Wong: It's all right,
Roy.
I know everyone's upset.
I mean, it is entirely possible
that the medicine I prescribed
could have triggered this.
But I've given her
something to counteract it,
and a sedative.
And a good night's
sleep will help.
She's sleeping.
I'm gonna sleep on the
couch in case she wakes up.
I really don't think
that's necessary.
The sedative I gave her
will keep her out till morning.
Lisa: What harm can
it do if Nelson stays?
Angela: Henry's right.
You should try to get
some sleep yourself.
Mom.
Nelson will be
right across the hall

And?
So, maybe it's the yuan
gui from the fourth floor.
(chuckles)
No, I don't think so.
Vivian: I thought you
said she goes into rooms
and haunts the guests.
No, no, no.
Got work to do.
Oh. Yeah.
At least you found it.
Yes.

will bring great fortune

doing exactly what they say

(chuckles) I don't know.
Maybe.
You will be the most
beautiful bride today.
What time is the stylist coming?
I changed the
appointment to 3:00.
Nelson and I want to go to the
temple to make an offering first.
(sighs) Mimi... It can't hurt,
right?
Not after last night.

She's going to be fine.
Nelson: Are you sure?
Told you she'd be all right.
It's really just a girl thing.
Lisa: She just
wants to rest a bit.
I'll call Henry. He
should have a look at her.
As far as we know,
this was some side effect
from whatever he
gave her last night.
Look,
maybe we should think about postponing.
Mimi doesn't want that.
She said she'll be fine.
You boys need to go.
Get yourself dressed.
You too. I'll look
after your sister.
I'd like to see her. If, um...
(speaks Mandarin)
I'm okay.
I'm getting married.

Roy: I know weddings
are supposed to be
a day of joy and celebration,
the start of a new
adventure for these two.
But for me, the dad...
it's just not that easy to let
go of somebody you love.
I don't think I'll
ever really let go.
But, Mimi,
you have a husband now.
And, Nelson, if I may,
a little bit of advice
from someone with a little bit of
experience with the Chan women.
(laughter)
It's not always true that
doing exactly what they say
is always the best strategy.
(laughter)
You'll hear that a lot,
especially from Lisa.
Roy: But the best
strategy is this.
It won't always be easy.
You won't always be perfect.
But be honest in your mistakes,
and sincere in your apologies.
And love her
with all your heart.
Your mother and I wish you both
a lifetime of
happiness together.
To the bride and groom.
All: To the bride and groom!

What are you doing here?
I'm sorry,
Roy. We have a situation.
Take your hands off me!
I just want to make a toast,
that's all!
Where... Where is the couple?

Do you know this man? No,

Wait, wait,

Okay.
We are traditionalists,

you over the threshold.

No. You stay right there.
