In the Dark (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 2 - Mommy Issues - full transcript
Previously onIn the Dark...
Sorry, just didn't see you.
I'm blind.We both thought opening
this place was gonna
help her get her life back on
track, but it has not worked.
Hey.
Hey, Tyson.
Feel the textures of my beauty.
I just don't do
that face-feeling stuff.
Give me your hand.
Oh, my God. Tyson?
You sure it was him?Yes. I felt his face.
Did they identify him yet?They didn't find a body.
Until there's some evidence,
there's nothing
any of us can do.
I really think someone
killed your cousin.
Ty is fine.You don't believe me.
Because you're a drunk mess.
Couple years ago,
she got mugged.
She probably
would have died
if Tyson hadn't have seen
it and stopped the guy.
I have to find out
what happened to him.
Tell me.
What were you guys both doing?
But was it, like, fine after,
or was there, like, a second
where you guys were both...
like, did you both, you know,
like, did you both hear that?
It's okay.
Somebody help!
Help!
Shut up.
Help me!
Okay, okay.
911. What's your emergency?
This girl just got mugged.
I need an ambulance.
Is the victim conscious?Yeah, conscious, barely.
Is the victim breathing?Yes, breathing.
What's the victim's name?
I don't know. I don't know her.
Stay on the line.
Paramedics have been dispatched.
Stay with her.
Okay, okay. All right, hey.
Hey. Just try to stay awake.
An ambulance is on its way.
Just stay awake, all right?
Just try and stay awake
for me. Okay.
You're gonna be okay, all right?
You're gonna be okay.
I feel like I'm
failing him, Jess.
Mm, Murph,
it's only been a-a week.
Yeah, and I've come
up with nothing.
Which makes sense, because
I'm the only one looking.
What about the cousin?
Darnell?Yeah.
He iced me out as soon as he
heard I was talking to the cops.
Which was pointless,
because that detective dork
hasn't even gotten back
to me about Tyson's phone.
Weren't you gonna file
a missing persons report today?
Turns out, if he's a minor and
I'm not related, no can do.
I need a photo
and Social Security num...
Oh, my God, are you texting?
No.
Wow. Wow!
Pouring my heart out to you,
and you're texting your chick.
Okay, you know what?
You-you don't know
what I'm doing,
because you're-you're blind.
I know exactly what you're
doing, 'cause I'm not a moron.
Okay, fine.
I sent Vanessa one emoji.
Well, which emoji?
Party horns.
She's on her way over.
She stays over every night.
Murphy, come on,
we've been here for hours.
Walk back with me.
I got to get out of my head.
What's the dude sitch tonight?
Uh, not great.
Jess.
Like cornbread and butter...
Okay.
There's a geek to your right.
You would make his year.
Chase my blues
with the whiskey
And I chase my whiskey
with the blues...
Should I get bangs?
If you want to be happy
for a day
and miserable for three months,
then yeah, go for it, babe.
This happens so often that
I'm starting to be able
to tell how big they are.
Do you ever miss it?
What?You know, a penis.
Oh. Uh...
No, definitely not.
I've only been with girls.
Seriously?
Wow, you're, like,
a real lesbian.
Yes.
Oh! Oh! Oh, man!
Fast as you can,
fast you can
Fast as you can,
run fast as you can...
Oh, Mommy! Oh...
Oh, Mommy.
Jess, you're officially
fired from being my bar eyes.
What happened?[scoffs]
This dude called me Mommy.
Ew.
Ew.
Guys are so weird.
I remember this one guy who
high-fived me when he climaxed.
Don't try to bond with me.
Oh, we got to go. We're
gonna be late for spin.
Spin?
Since when do you spin?
I spin.
How am I gonna get to work?
Your parents are picking you up.
You got to be kidding me.
Your mom is, like,
next-level worried about you
since this Tyson thing.
You're not really gonna
smoke in the house, are you?
What am I, garbage?
Please.
You know,
if you actually bothered
to go on dates with these guys,
you'd realize
that they were creeps
before you got to this point.
That's great advice.
Well, whatever.
Have fun with these creeps
who want to have sex
with their moms.
Let's go.
Wait, that's it.
Tyson's mom.
What about
Tyson's mom?
She's the one who can file
the missing persons report.
How you arrived at that
is seriously disturbing.
Okay.
I will see you
at work, okay?
And, uh, Murphy,
please be downstairs at 10:00.
Okay, let's go. Go.Let's go.
Search the Internet for
Mrs. Parker, Chicago, Illinois.
Searching the Internet
for "Mrs. Parker,
Chicago, Illinois."
Oh! Cancel. No, no, no, no.
Call Dr. Lori Owens.
Connecting you
to Dr. Lori Owens.
Oh, no.
Hey, um, it's Murphy Mason here.
Hi. Um, can you have Dr. Owens
fill a prescription
for a UTI, please?
Uh, I'm sure.
Yeah, I've had a million.
Yeah, I can hold. Of course.
Why didn't you remind me
to pee after sex?
Didn't they teach you anything
at that dog-training school?
Hi. Yeah, I'm here.
Outstanding balance?
Okay, great.
Thank you for
absolutely nothing. Oh!
There are 3,600,000 results
for "Mrs. Parker,
Chicago, Illinois."
Perfect.
Yeah.
Hey.
Are-are you the kid?
Yeah. That's... that's me.
You're okay.
Thanks to you.
I'm Murphy.
Tyson.
Yeah. Oh, sorry.
I was listening to music.
On, like, the first iPod
ever made or...?
Okay.
I'm gonna go get
some cigarettes.
Do you want anything?
Yeah, I'll take a candy bar.
Come on.
It keeps me awake
Wondering what to say...
Oh, you know what?
I don't need dumb antibiotics.
Since the beginning of time,
women have healed themselves.
Mm...
I know it's gotta be
nothing but honesty
Like, only you
can make me feel complete
Wait till you say...
The cranberry juice
is on the top right, Murphy.
Well, you moved it.
Hey, man, what's going on?
Is everything okay?
I forgot it was teacher
in-service day.
Chloe's just gonna hang
with me until I'm off.
Of course.
This is the perfect place
for a child.
Thank you, for always making me
feel so much better, Jules.
Hmm.
What?
Nothing, sweetie.
Is that that girl
from the other night?
Oh. Murphy.What's she doing here?
She's probably checking up
on that Tyson kid's phone.
Murphy's here? Can I say hi?
In a minute, honey.
Just hang here.
His phone?Yeah, she found it
by an overpass.
I told her I'd see
if I can get anything off it.
It's still in Forensics.
Murphy?
The, uh... the phone's
not ready yet.
Oh, I'm here
for a different reason.
I need Tyson's mom's address.
I'm sure you have
access to that.Uh, we do,
but we also can't give out
private information.
When are you gonna get
the results about the phone?
Any day. We'll call you.
Why is it taking forever?
Because there's no body.
It-it isn't a high priority.
Then why isn't anyone
around here looking for a body?
Tyson still has all the criteria
for a runaway.
The best thing you can do
right now: think good thoughts.
With all due respect,
my friend is dead.
So all of my thoughts are
pretty much bad right now.
We don't know that.
Whatever.
Thanks.
Hey, Murphy, uh, Chloe is here.
She wants to say hi.
Sure.
One second.
Oh, my God.
Do you like
hanging out here?
No.
But my dad thinks
I can't handle being alone.
Oh, my God.
He needs to loosen up.
Dude needs to get laid
or something.
What?
Oh, um...
It means dating.
Like, your dad needs
to go on a date.
Oh, here she is, here she is.Oh.
Murph?
Thank God.
Your dad right here.
Hey, good morning.JOY: Good morning!
Put your seat belt on.
Mom, can you drive faster?
I really have to pee,
like, really bad.
Your mom is driving
the speed limit, sweetheart.
Maybe stop drinking that juice
if you have to urinate, honey.
Exciting things happening
around Guiding Hope tomorrow.
We're having a "barkery."
It's a bakery,
but with dog trainers.
Yeah, I got the pun.[chuckles]
We just need you to
show up and smile.
Well, I can show up.
Murphy, this is
a big deal.
Channel 37 is
covering it.
Oh, Channel 37.
They're doing a whole piece
on how we opened
Guiding Hope for you.
But you opened it up for you.
No, sweetheart,
we opened it up for you.
Well, I'm not going
on television.
Oh, yes, you are.
We're hoping that it would
bring some donations.
Which we desperately need.
Look, we know
you're still upset
about Tyson, but I'm hopeful.
I think he's gonna turn up.
Oh, you have hope, Mom?I do.
Having hope is ridiculous.
The only thing that matters
is actually doing something.
But there's nothing you can do.
That's not true.
I'm gonna figure out
who killed him.
What?!Yeah, what?
I'm gonna figure out
who killed Tyson.
Because I owe him that.
Murphy, that's very noble,
what you're doing,
it is.
Maybe you should just
let the cops handle it.
They're not doing anything.So?
You have no idea
what you're doing,
and it is very dangerous.
Look, just focus on the barkery.
Jess?
Hey.
Ah, Jess!Yeah.
Fix me.
You're a doctor.I'm a veterinarian.
Well, do something... please.
UTI, the sinner's campfire.
Could you live
without the penis?
Could you?How long are we talking?
Long. Yeah, like,
a really long time.
Of course not.
Why are you asking me
stupid questions?
Because Vanessa asked me
if I miss the penis,
and it sounds like
she misses the penis.
Well, stop calling it
"the penis."
Murphy, I'm freaking out.
Wh-What if I'm just,
like, a phase for her?
You said she's really hot,
so just
have a bunch of sex with her
and move on.
Well, I can't do
that, because...
I think I'm
in love with her.
Well, I came by to discuss
balloon duty
for tomorrow's event,
but obviously you guys
are very busy.
Uh, I'm so sorry,
could you repeat yourself?
I know what
you're doing, Murphy.
You're trying to
figure out where I am
by my voice
so you can throw...
You've never hit me once.
Okay, so it looks like
you're coming in
at about a rottweiler
and two Chihuahuas.
You need one pill
every 12 hours.
I can mix it
in your food.
Can you drive me to
a burger truck at lunch?
Uh, no, I can't.
I told your mom
I'd help her make cookies
for tomorrow.
Why do you need to go
to a food truck?
Because I need to find Darnell
to see if he'll give me
Tyson's mom's address.
Tyson said he used to go there,
like, every day for lunch.
Right, so, okay, if Darnell
isn't even talking to you,
what makes you think that he's
gonna tell you where she lives?
I know it's nuts,
but it's my only option.
Beggars can't be choosers.
And there's a long history
of blind beggars,
so here we are.
Hey.
Hey.
Can you not do that?I'm just trying to help.
I don't need your help.
Very funny, Murphy.
Look, we need to talk
about attire for tomorrow.
What were you
planning on wearing?
The same thing
I wear every day.
I'd like you to wear a dress.
I haven't seen your knees
since you were ten.
Would it kill you to look
a little nice for once?
I'm blind. I don't
think anyone's gonna be
judging my appearance...
besides just you.
And about this Tyson thing,
I'm sorry he went missing.
I wish he hadn't.
Really?
'Cause you hated
that I hung out with him.
You hated it.
So just admit it.
I think this is
a giant relief for you.
That is unfair.
Murphy, I worried about
you down in that alley.
Guess I wasn't the one
you needed to worry about.
I'm your mother.
Sort of my job.
Yeah, and you'd think,
as my mother,
that you'd care about
the kid who saved my life.
Give me your hand.
What?
What is this?
A bird?
Pterodactyl.
How'd you do that?
Well, it's actually
pretty easy.
I can show you.
You must grasp
the blank canvas.
The first step,
folding it in half.
You can feel the corners
line up?
Yeah.
Pinch right here.Mm-hmm.
Okay.All right, now you take...
We pull it
as far as we can.
Wings.
Body. And then up here...
Little body. Okay.
...is the last step.
And now you're-you're done.
Yeah.You did it.
The student has become
the master.
Thank you.
It's my pleasure.
You should start
a dating profile.
I'm sorry?
Apparently, everyone
meets online now.
It's how the world works.
Oh.
And it's not like you
ever go anywhere.
I go places.
Like, I'm about
to go to Dispatch
and check a bunch
of stuff out.
Might even hit the
water fountain on the way back.
My life is crazy.Dad.
You got a book?
I'll be back
in three chapters
of Mockingjay,and then
we can grab some food.
Okay? Anywhere you want.
Where you going,
sweetie?
I'm trying to find
the bathroom.
I'll show you the way.
I know this place
like the back of my hand.
Thanks.
Do you come here much?
Yeah.
A little too much.
That's a Hinoki
cutting board, man.
Keep the dirty money off it.
You got Eater's Choice
Best Burgers
because of dirty money,
so settle.
Wow, wow.
Well, I like to pretend
I bought this truck myself
and don't have to integrate
illegitimate funds
to brine my own chuck roast.
But it's nice of you to
note my accomplishments.
Man, you hipsters
are exhausting.
All old-timey.
"Brine."
Acting like you invented toast.
The books are clean.
I'll see you tomorrow.
Seriously, come on.
Let me make you a burger.
It's savage.
Savage? Don't.
Come on.
Fine.
Okay, okay.
What do you think?
Okay. Yeah.
Darnell?
Oh, great.
Yo, ignore that girl.
I'd rather not.
I'm not here, seriously.
She's crazy annoying.
Call Darnell.
I hear your phone.
Darnell, I know you're here.
Reveal yourself!
Seriously?
Okay. Fine.
Has anyone seen Darnell?
Yeah, he-he sells
all of the drugs.
Oh, wow. Okay.Like, all the time.
Yeah, he's a huge fan
of recreational drug use.
Yo, shut up.
Didn't think you were here.
What do you want?
I need Tyson's mom's address.Why?
Because I want her to file
a missing persons report.
What did I say to you, huh?
No cops.
Come on, dude, let me help.
You have no idea
how out of your zone you are.
You want to help?
Skip on out of here
and leave me
and my family alone.
Is there a bathroom here?No.
It's a food truck.
Come on, how about...
How about a burger?
How about a-a milkshake?
Apparently, I'm a rottweiler
and two Chihuahuas,
so I'm cutting back on carbs.
You know, that was hilarious
what you did to D.
Dude's so serious all the time.
You know Darnell?Yeah, he's my boy.
So you know Tyson?
His cousin?
A little, yeah.
I need to know where
his mom lives.
Why?
I just do.
Why didn't Darnell
tell you?
Because I didn't ask him.Hmm.
I had come here...
for drugs.
I was picking up
some drugs from him.
What do you want?I don't know.
What do I want?
Depends.
What's good this season?This is so sad.
You're clearly lying
straight to my face.
To be fair, I can't see
where your face is.
Can you just tell me, please?
All right, chill, chill.[sighs]
If you go out with me.
I don't go on dates.
Give me an hour. Come on.
Fine.
One hour.
But you should be
really embarrassed.
Embarrassed is
not my thing.
So, he's forcing you
on a date with him
in exchange for the address
of your dead friend's mother?
Yeah.
He sounds great.
There they are.
I can't believe
buying a plastic dong
was your takeaway
from our conversation.
I know what I'm doing.Hmm, do you?
No! That is why
you're here.
Look, as much as I love
that you want me
to pick out your penis,
shouldn't Vanessa
be doing it?
It's a surprise.
Oh, God.Murphy, please help me.
Fine, fine.
Is she more of a garden hose
or soup can gal?
I don't know; these
questions were not
a part of our
courting process.
Do you ladies need some help?
Yes.
On, like, every level, dude.
Come on, come on.I-I'm going. Geez.
Are you hungry?Come on.
Okay, okay. What is the rush?
How do you look?What?
You're not wearing those pants
that Mom hated, are you?
Mom hated my pants?
Just the khaki ones.
Right.
Oh, dear God.
There you are.
Hi.
I almost gave
up on you.
Thought Daddy
got cold feet.
Yeah.
Yeah, you came.
Dad, this is my cool
single friend, Jade.
Here, come sit.
Max?
Right here.
My roommate is taking pictures
of your license plate
in case you try to
kill me or something.
You look good.
Just start the clock.
All right. Right this way.
It's gated.
We've got to
climb the fence.
Of course it is.
Wonderful.
You're just going
this slowly to eat time.
Shut up.
All right, just put your...
put your leg over.
Just...
That's it.
I got it, I got it.
Hmm.
Where'd you take me?
Sunrise Beach.
It's my, uh... my favorite
view in all of Chicago.
It's gorgeous.
I'm blind, you idiot.
Wow, I am an idiot.
Yeah.
Yeah. You like that.
This surprise is taking
a really long time, Jess.
Yeah, one sec!
Okay.
Slip...
Okay.
What...
What's going on?Um...
Surprise.
Okay, yeah. I'm-I'm surprised.
But why are you wearing that?
Oh, y-you know.
Because I don't...
I don't have one.
And I-I... so I bought one.
Murphy picked it out.
And she said that this
was, like,
the right size and width.
So what do you think?
I look stupid.
Are you saying you don't
want a piece of this?
I don't want
a piece of that.
You can't slap it.
Oh, it wobbles.
Why did you buy that thing?
Well, I really like you.
I really like you, too.
Well, I-I... I like...
I more than like you.
Like... [breathes deeply]
Like, a lot more, okay?
Oh, my God.
You love me.
What?
You love me.
Vanessa, please don't make me
say that while I'm wearing this.
Now let's hear it.
I love you.
Isn't this something
Happy?
Isn't this something good
I love you so much, Jess.
Isn't this something
Isn't this something good.
It's relaxing
out here, right?
Can never really relax.
What do you mean?
Just being blind,
it's exhausting.
I spent three hours
trying to find a cigarette
I dropped the other day.
It's just my life.
Just exhausting.
Why would you spend that long
looking for a cigarette?
Because they're expensive
and I'm poor.
Just, the point is,
I'm at the mercy of the world.
I-I... I hate it.
Wow.
"I'm at the mercy of
the world. I hate it."
Shut up.
That's not how...
That...
Oh, it's not?
I didn't sound
like that.
Are you sure
about that?
You know, you
got that, um...
got that tortured hot girl
thing down, don't you?
Yeah, you got that
narcissistic douche
thing down, don't you?
Oh, for sure.
I have a UTI, and I'm not
gonna have sex with you,
but thanks for the wine.
And the sandwich.
Why do you think I want
to have sex with you?
Come on.
"Welcome to Sunrise Beach,
the most beautiful view
in all of Chicago."
Okay, okay,
first of all,
I don't even want
to have sex with you.
Sure.
I'm serious.
All right, look.
I'm a dick, okay?
I sleep with everyone.
But... I don't know.
There's something
about you...
Something just
different
and special and you never felt
like this before-- please.
I sleep with everyone, too.
That's
never not worked.
Yeah, it looks like
you might be
making love
to yourself tonight.
Thank God.
Can I have your number?
Yeah, I don't think so.
Uh, do you have
Tyson's mom's address?
Oh.
Oh, cool.
I can totally see this.
Why do you
want it anyway?
Because I need Tyson's mom to
file a missing persons report.
Tyson's missing?
Didn't Darnell tell you?No.
He's dead.
Nah.
I'm pretty sure Darnell
would have mentioned that.
Well, he is.
I found him in the alley,
and whoever killed him
must have moved the body.
So there's no body?
Not yet.
Well, in
my world,
you don't panic
until a body turns up.
Well, in my world, you panic
when you feel your dead friend.
And what does Tyson's mom think?
I don't know.
You're not really gonna go
up to a mother
and tell her you think
her son is dead, are you?
I have to.
Murphy.
Look, just...
What?
Make sure you're sure.
I'm sure.
Since when are you up
at 7:00 in the morning?
I'm going to Tyson's mom's
before the barkery
thing. Pretzel.
Can I help you?
You're Tyson's mom?
Who are you?
Murphy.
I'm a... I'm a friend of his.
You're the girl that was mugged?
Yeah.
He never told me you were blind.
He always focuses
on other things.
Well, he's not home.
Okay.
That's what
you're here for, right?
Yeah.
You haven't heard
from him, have you?
He usually checks in, and...
starting to get
a little worried.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
Can I actually
use your bathroom?
S-Sure.
Can I help you?
Yeah. Thank you.
Straight past Tyson's room
at the end of the hall.
Okay, thank you.
I'll be in
the kitchen.
Okay.
You little weirdo.
'Twas in another lifetime,
one of toil and blood
When blackness was a virtue,
the road was full of mud
I came in from
the wilderness
A creature void of form
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you
Shelter from the storm"
He's not okay, is he?
And if I pass this way again,
you can rest assured
I'll always do
my best for her
On that I give my word
In a world
of steel-eyed death
And men who are fighting
to be warm
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you
Shelter from the storm"
Not a word was spoke
between us
There was little risk
involved
Everything up to that point
had been left unresolved
Try imagining a place...
There's a chance what
you felt wasn't Tyson.
You're blind.
You didn't actually
see that it was him.
That's true.
Okay.
So maybe it wasn't Tyson.
And the one-eyed undertaker,
he blows a futile horn...
I worry about that
kid all damn day.
I bet your mom worries
about you a lot, too, huh?
Yeah.
She's impossible.
It's called
being a mother.
What was Ty
listening to?
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you
Shelter from the storm"
In a little hilltop village,
they gambled for my clothes
I bargained for salvation
and she gave me a lethal dose
I offered up my innocence,
I got repaid with scorn
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you
Shelter from the storm"
Well, I'm living
in a foreign country
But I'm bound
to cross the line
Beauty walks a razor's edge,
someday I'll make it mine
If I could only
turn back the clock
To when God and her
were born
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you
Shelter from the storm."
You look like a lunatic.
You wore a dress.
Oh, is that what this is?
Damn it.
I asked for overalls.
I'm sorry about today, Mom.
Just help me clean up. Come on.
Incoming call from that cop.
Sorry.
Hey, Dean, what's up?
I got the report on the phone.
Do you want to come in?
Right now?That would be great.
Like, I'm...
Go, go. If it's about Tyson,
just... go.
So I got
the forensics report back.
Tyson's phone was wiped.
Wiped?Completely.
And the account was closed.
We couldn't get anything
off of it.
I wish I had
better news.
Isn't that kind of suspicious
that his phone was wiped?
It's too early to tell, but now
that a report has been filed,
at least we can push forward.
Yeah, that's good.
And, uh, there is
one more thing.
I wanted to thank you
for telling my daughter
I need to get laid.
Did I?
Yes. You did.
And so she set me up
with a prostitute.
She didn't know she was
a prostitute, but still.
Oh, my God.
How was the sex?
Uh, better when you pay for it?
Be honest, be honest.,
I am...
very glad that you're amused.
Uh, in the future,
could you please
not give Chloe
any advice about
my love life, please?
What love life?
Good one, Murphy Mason.
Hell of a dress, by the way.
Thanks.
Mm.
Think I look like
a prostitute?
I mean, I'm asking you
'cause you're the expert.
Okay, bye-bye.
Bye.
I can't find you in the dark
So far away where you are
But everything
changes with time
When I run till
I see the sun shine...
Hi.
Yo.
Oh, do you need a drink?Sure.
Oh, no, I meant for the pills.
Oh, I'm done.
What?
Dog antibiotics
are finally kicking in.
Okay, you know you have to
finish the whole bottle, right?
I feel like
a million bucks.
Where did you get that thing?
So you told her you loved her
while wearing a dong?
It was oddly romantic.
Gross.
Romance isn't gross.
What the hell
was that?
Trying to see you
in the dark
Trying to
see you in the dark
Trying to see you
in the dark...
It's that food truck guy.
Seriously?
Yeah. Come here.
What do you want?
You wouldn't give
me your number.
Okay, so this
is your move?
Want to grab a drink?
No.
Tomorrow?
No!
Oh, come on!
I know where you live.So?
I'll just keep coming back.
Fine. One drink.
Whoo!
Shut up.
One drink tomorrow.
Told you romance
isn't gross.
That isn't romance.
It's borderline stalking.
Oh, yeah, then what's that
smile thingy on your face?
I don't have anything
on my face.
Just that stupid smile.Shut up.
Ugh.
What does he look like?
Blech. Horrible.
He's basically disfigured.
He's hot.
Yeah.
I can feel it.
What's that?
It's Tyson's.
Ooh.
He was into the
Fairview Mustangs?
What?
It's a program
for a dance recital
at Fairview High School.
He didn't go there.
He drew a little heart
next to "Keira Shields."
He didn't tell me
he had a girlfriend.
I need to find Keira.
Maybe she knows
what happened to Tyson.
Darnell, we in order?
Yeah, just Tyson Parker--
he's still missing.
You wiped the phone,
though, right?
We ain't got nothing
to worry about.
Yeah, but, Nia,
there's this girl.
Hangs out with him
on the corner.
I'll handle it.

Sorry, just didn't see you.
I'm blind.We both thought opening
this place was gonna
help her get her life back on
track, but it has not worked.
Hey.
Hey, Tyson.
Feel the textures of my beauty.
I just don't do
that face-feeling stuff.
Give me your hand.
Oh, my God. Tyson?
You sure it was him?Yes. I felt his face.
Did they identify him yet?They didn't find a body.
Until there's some evidence,
there's nothing
any of us can do.
I really think someone
killed your cousin.
Ty is fine.You don't believe me.
Because you're a drunk mess.
Couple years ago,
she got mugged.
She probably
would have died
if Tyson hadn't have seen
it and stopped the guy.
I have to find out
what happened to him.
Tell me.
What were you guys both doing?
But was it, like, fine after,
or was there, like, a second
where you guys were both...
like, did you both, you know,
like, did you both hear that?
It's okay.
Somebody help!
Help!
Shut up.
Help me!
Okay, okay.
911. What's your emergency?
This girl just got mugged.
I need an ambulance.
Is the victim conscious?Yeah, conscious, barely.
Is the victim breathing?Yes, breathing.
What's the victim's name?
I don't know. I don't know her.
Stay on the line.
Paramedics have been dispatched.
Stay with her.
Okay, okay. All right, hey.
Hey. Just try to stay awake.
An ambulance is on its way.
Just stay awake, all right?
Just try and stay awake
for me. Okay.
You're gonna be okay, all right?
You're gonna be okay.
I feel like I'm
failing him, Jess.
Mm, Murph,
it's only been a-a week.
Yeah, and I've come
up with nothing.
Which makes sense, because
I'm the only one looking.
What about the cousin?
Darnell?Yeah.
He iced me out as soon as he
heard I was talking to the cops.
Which was pointless,
because that detective dork
hasn't even gotten back
to me about Tyson's phone.
Weren't you gonna file
a missing persons report today?
Turns out, if he's a minor and
I'm not related, no can do.
I need a photo
and Social Security num...
Oh, my God, are you texting?
No.
Wow. Wow!
Pouring my heart out to you,
and you're texting your chick.
Okay, you know what?
You-you don't know
what I'm doing,
because you're-you're blind.
I know exactly what you're
doing, 'cause I'm not a moron.
Okay, fine.
I sent Vanessa one emoji.
Well, which emoji?
Party horns.
She's on her way over.
She stays over every night.
Murphy, come on,
we've been here for hours.
Walk back with me.
I got to get out of my head.
What's the dude sitch tonight?
Uh, not great.
Jess.
Like cornbread and butter...
Okay.
There's a geek to your right.
You would make his year.
Chase my blues
with the whiskey
And I chase my whiskey
with the blues...
Should I get bangs?
If you want to be happy
for a day
and miserable for three months,
then yeah, go for it, babe.
This happens so often that
I'm starting to be able
to tell how big they are.
Do you ever miss it?
What?You know, a penis.
Oh. Uh...
No, definitely not.
I've only been with girls.
Seriously?
Wow, you're, like,
a real lesbian.
Yes.
Oh! Oh! Oh, man!
Fast as you can,
fast you can
Fast as you can,
run fast as you can...
Oh, Mommy! Oh...
Oh, Mommy.
Jess, you're officially
fired from being my bar eyes.
What happened?[scoffs]
This dude called me Mommy.
Ew.
Ew.
Guys are so weird.
I remember this one guy who
high-fived me when he climaxed.
Don't try to bond with me.
Oh, we got to go. We're
gonna be late for spin.
Spin?
Since when do you spin?
I spin.
How am I gonna get to work?
Your parents are picking you up.
You got to be kidding me.
Your mom is, like,
next-level worried about you
since this Tyson thing.
You're not really gonna
smoke in the house, are you?
What am I, garbage?
Please.
You know,
if you actually bothered
to go on dates with these guys,
you'd realize
that they were creeps
before you got to this point.
That's great advice.
Well, whatever.
Have fun with these creeps
who want to have sex
with their moms.
Let's go.
Wait, that's it.
Tyson's mom.
What about
Tyson's mom?
She's the one who can file
the missing persons report.
How you arrived at that
is seriously disturbing.
Okay.
I will see you
at work, okay?
And, uh, Murphy,
please be downstairs at 10:00.
Okay, let's go. Go.Let's go.
Search the Internet for
Mrs. Parker, Chicago, Illinois.
Searching the Internet
for "Mrs. Parker,
Chicago, Illinois."
Oh! Cancel. No, no, no, no.
Call Dr. Lori Owens.
Connecting you
to Dr. Lori Owens.
Oh, no.
Hey, um, it's Murphy Mason here.
Hi. Um, can you have Dr. Owens
fill a prescription
for a UTI, please?
Uh, I'm sure.
Yeah, I've had a million.
Yeah, I can hold. Of course.
Why didn't you remind me
to pee after sex?
Didn't they teach you anything
at that dog-training school?
Hi. Yeah, I'm here.
Outstanding balance?
Okay, great.
Thank you for
absolutely nothing. Oh!
There are 3,600,000 results
for "Mrs. Parker,
Chicago, Illinois."
Perfect.
Yeah.
Hey.
Are-are you the kid?
Yeah. That's... that's me.
You're okay.
Thanks to you.
I'm Murphy.
Tyson.
Yeah. Oh, sorry.
I was listening to music.
On, like, the first iPod
ever made or...?
Okay.
I'm gonna go get
some cigarettes.
Do you want anything?
Yeah, I'll take a candy bar.
Come on.
It keeps me awake
Wondering what to say...
Oh, you know what?
I don't need dumb antibiotics.
Since the beginning of time,
women have healed themselves.
Mm...
I know it's gotta be
nothing but honesty
Like, only you
can make me feel complete
Wait till you say...
The cranberry juice
is on the top right, Murphy.
Well, you moved it.
Hey, man, what's going on?
Is everything okay?
I forgot it was teacher
in-service day.
Chloe's just gonna hang
with me until I'm off.
Of course.
This is the perfect place
for a child.
Thank you, for always making me
feel so much better, Jules.
Hmm.
What?
Nothing, sweetie.
Is that that girl
from the other night?
Oh. Murphy.What's she doing here?
She's probably checking up
on that Tyson kid's phone.
Murphy's here? Can I say hi?
In a minute, honey.
Just hang here.
His phone?Yeah, she found it
by an overpass.
I told her I'd see
if I can get anything off it.
It's still in Forensics.
Murphy?
The, uh... the phone's
not ready yet.
Oh, I'm here
for a different reason.
I need Tyson's mom's address.
I'm sure you have
access to that.Uh, we do,
but we also can't give out
private information.
When are you gonna get
the results about the phone?
Any day. We'll call you.
Why is it taking forever?
Because there's no body.
It-it isn't a high priority.
Then why isn't anyone
around here looking for a body?
Tyson still has all the criteria
for a runaway.
The best thing you can do
right now: think good thoughts.
With all due respect,
my friend is dead.
So all of my thoughts are
pretty much bad right now.
We don't know that.
Whatever.
Thanks.
Hey, Murphy, uh, Chloe is here.
She wants to say hi.
Sure.
One second.
Oh, my God.
Do you like
hanging out here?
No.
But my dad thinks
I can't handle being alone.
Oh, my God.
He needs to loosen up.
Dude needs to get laid
or something.
What?
Oh, um...
It means dating.
Like, your dad needs
to go on a date.
Oh, here she is, here she is.Oh.
Murph?
Thank God.
Your dad right here.
Hey, good morning.JOY: Good morning!
Put your seat belt on.
Mom, can you drive faster?
I really have to pee,
like, really bad.
Your mom is driving
the speed limit, sweetheart.
Maybe stop drinking that juice
if you have to urinate, honey.
Exciting things happening
around Guiding Hope tomorrow.
We're having a "barkery."
It's a bakery,
but with dog trainers.
Yeah, I got the pun.[chuckles]
We just need you to
show up and smile.
Well, I can show up.
Murphy, this is
a big deal.
Channel 37 is
covering it.
Oh, Channel 37.
They're doing a whole piece
on how we opened
Guiding Hope for you.
But you opened it up for you.
No, sweetheart,
we opened it up for you.
Well, I'm not going
on television.
Oh, yes, you are.
We're hoping that it would
bring some donations.
Which we desperately need.
Look, we know
you're still upset
about Tyson, but I'm hopeful.
I think he's gonna turn up.
Oh, you have hope, Mom?I do.
Having hope is ridiculous.
The only thing that matters
is actually doing something.
But there's nothing you can do.
That's not true.
I'm gonna figure out
who killed him.
What?!Yeah, what?
I'm gonna figure out
who killed Tyson.
Because I owe him that.
Murphy, that's very noble,
what you're doing,
it is.
Maybe you should just
let the cops handle it.
They're not doing anything.So?
You have no idea
what you're doing,
and it is very dangerous.
Look, just focus on the barkery.
Jess?
Hey.
Ah, Jess!Yeah.
Fix me.
You're a doctor.I'm a veterinarian.
Well, do something... please.
UTI, the sinner's campfire.
Could you live
without the penis?
Could you?How long are we talking?
Long. Yeah, like,
a really long time.
Of course not.
Why are you asking me
stupid questions?
Because Vanessa asked me
if I miss the penis,
and it sounds like
she misses the penis.
Well, stop calling it
"the penis."
Murphy, I'm freaking out.
Wh-What if I'm just,
like, a phase for her?
You said she's really hot,
so just
have a bunch of sex with her
and move on.
Well, I can't do
that, because...
I think I'm
in love with her.
Well, I came by to discuss
balloon duty
for tomorrow's event,
but obviously you guys
are very busy.
Uh, I'm so sorry,
could you repeat yourself?
I know what
you're doing, Murphy.
You're trying to
figure out where I am
by my voice
so you can throw...
You've never hit me once.
Okay, so it looks like
you're coming in
at about a rottweiler
and two Chihuahuas.
You need one pill
every 12 hours.
I can mix it
in your food.
Can you drive me to
a burger truck at lunch?
Uh, no, I can't.
I told your mom
I'd help her make cookies
for tomorrow.
Why do you need to go
to a food truck?
Because I need to find Darnell
to see if he'll give me
Tyson's mom's address.
Tyson said he used to go there,
like, every day for lunch.
Right, so, okay, if Darnell
isn't even talking to you,
what makes you think that he's
gonna tell you where she lives?
I know it's nuts,
but it's my only option.
Beggars can't be choosers.
And there's a long history
of blind beggars,
so here we are.
Hey.
Hey.
Can you not do that?I'm just trying to help.
I don't need your help.
Very funny, Murphy.
Look, we need to talk
about attire for tomorrow.
What were you
planning on wearing?
The same thing
I wear every day.
I'd like you to wear a dress.
I haven't seen your knees
since you were ten.
Would it kill you to look
a little nice for once?
I'm blind. I don't
think anyone's gonna be
judging my appearance...
besides just you.
And about this Tyson thing,
I'm sorry he went missing.
I wish he hadn't.
Really?
'Cause you hated
that I hung out with him.
You hated it.
So just admit it.
I think this is
a giant relief for you.
That is unfair.
Murphy, I worried about
you down in that alley.
Guess I wasn't the one
you needed to worry about.
I'm your mother.
Sort of my job.
Yeah, and you'd think,
as my mother,
that you'd care about
the kid who saved my life.
Give me your hand.
What?
What is this?
A bird?
Pterodactyl.
How'd you do that?
Well, it's actually
pretty easy.
I can show you.
You must grasp
the blank canvas.
The first step,
folding it in half.
You can feel the corners
line up?
Yeah.
Pinch right here.Mm-hmm.
Okay.All right, now you take...
We pull it
as far as we can.
Wings.
Body. And then up here...
Little body. Okay.
...is the last step.
And now you're-you're done.
Yeah.You did it.
The student has become
the master.
Thank you.
It's my pleasure.
You should start
a dating profile.
I'm sorry?
Apparently, everyone
meets online now.
It's how the world works.
Oh.
And it's not like you
ever go anywhere.
I go places.
Like, I'm about
to go to Dispatch
and check a bunch
of stuff out.
Might even hit the
water fountain on the way back.
My life is crazy.Dad.
You got a book?
I'll be back
in three chapters
of Mockingjay,and then
we can grab some food.
Okay? Anywhere you want.
Where you going,
sweetie?
I'm trying to find
the bathroom.
I'll show you the way.
I know this place
like the back of my hand.
Thanks.
Do you come here much?
Yeah.
A little too much.
That's a Hinoki
cutting board, man.
Keep the dirty money off it.
You got Eater's Choice
Best Burgers
because of dirty money,
so settle.
Wow, wow.
Well, I like to pretend
I bought this truck myself
and don't have to integrate
illegitimate funds
to brine my own chuck roast.
But it's nice of you to
note my accomplishments.
Man, you hipsters
are exhausting.
All old-timey.
"Brine."
Acting like you invented toast.
The books are clean.
I'll see you tomorrow.
Seriously, come on.
Let me make you a burger.
It's savage.
Savage? Don't.
Come on.
Fine.
Okay, okay.
What do you think?
Okay. Yeah.
Darnell?
Oh, great.
Yo, ignore that girl.
I'd rather not.
I'm not here, seriously.
She's crazy annoying.
Call Darnell.
I hear your phone.
Darnell, I know you're here.
Reveal yourself!
Seriously?
Okay. Fine.
Has anyone seen Darnell?
Yeah, he-he sells
all of the drugs.
Oh, wow. Okay.Like, all the time.
Yeah, he's a huge fan
of recreational drug use.
Yo, shut up.
Didn't think you were here.
What do you want?
I need Tyson's mom's address.Why?
Because I want her to file
a missing persons report.
What did I say to you, huh?
No cops.
Come on, dude, let me help.
You have no idea
how out of your zone you are.
You want to help?
Skip on out of here
and leave me
and my family alone.
Is there a bathroom here?No.
It's a food truck.
Come on, how about...
How about a burger?
How about a-a milkshake?
Apparently, I'm a rottweiler
and two Chihuahuas,
so I'm cutting back on carbs.
You know, that was hilarious
what you did to D.
Dude's so serious all the time.
You know Darnell?Yeah, he's my boy.
So you know Tyson?
His cousin?
A little, yeah.
I need to know where
his mom lives.
Why?
I just do.
Why didn't Darnell
tell you?
Because I didn't ask him.Hmm.
I had come here...
for drugs.
I was picking up
some drugs from him.
What do you want?I don't know.
What do I want?
Depends.
What's good this season?This is so sad.
You're clearly lying
straight to my face.
To be fair, I can't see
where your face is.
Can you just tell me, please?
All right, chill, chill.[sighs]
If you go out with me.
I don't go on dates.
Give me an hour. Come on.
Fine.
One hour.
But you should be
really embarrassed.
Embarrassed is
not my thing.
So, he's forcing you
on a date with him
in exchange for the address
of your dead friend's mother?
Yeah.
He sounds great.
There they are.
I can't believe
buying a plastic dong
was your takeaway
from our conversation.
I know what I'm doing.Hmm, do you?
No! That is why
you're here.
Look, as much as I love
that you want me
to pick out your penis,
shouldn't Vanessa
be doing it?
It's a surprise.
Oh, God.Murphy, please help me.
Fine, fine.
Is she more of a garden hose
or soup can gal?
I don't know; these
questions were not
a part of our
courting process.
Do you ladies need some help?
Yes.
On, like, every level, dude.
Come on, come on.I-I'm going. Geez.
Are you hungry?Come on.
Okay, okay. What is the rush?
How do you look?What?
You're not wearing those pants
that Mom hated, are you?
Mom hated my pants?
Just the khaki ones.
Right.
Oh, dear God.
There you are.
Hi.
I almost gave
up on you.
Thought Daddy
got cold feet.
Yeah.
Yeah, you came.
Dad, this is my cool
single friend, Jade.
Here, come sit.
Max?
Right here.
My roommate is taking pictures
of your license plate
in case you try to
kill me or something.
You look good.
Just start the clock.
All right. Right this way.
It's gated.
We've got to
climb the fence.
Of course it is.
Wonderful.
You're just going
this slowly to eat time.
Shut up.
All right, just put your...
put your leg over.
Just...
That's it.
I got it, I got it.
Hmm.
Where'd you take me?
Sunrise Beach.
It's my, uh... my favorite
view in all of Chicago.
It's gorgeous.
I'm blind, you idiot.
Wow, I am an idiot.
Yeah.
Yeah. You like that.
This surprise is taking
a really long time, Jess.
Yeah, one sec!
Okay.
Slip...
Okay.
What...
What's going on?Um...
Surprise.
Okay, yeah. I'm-I'm surprised.
But why are you wearing that?
Oh, y-you know.
Because I don't...
I don't have one.
And I-I... so I bought one.
Murphy picked it out.
And she said that this
was, like,
the right size and width.
So what do you think?
I look stupid.
Are you saying you don't
want a piece of this?
I don't want
a piece of that.
You can't slap it.
Oh, it wobbles.
Why did you buy that thing?
Well, I really like you.
I really like you, too.
Well, I-I... I like...
I more than like you.
Like... [breathes deeply]
Like, a lot more, okay?
Oh, my God.
You love me.
What?
You love me.
Vanessa, please don't make me
say that while I'm wearing this.
Now let's hear it.
I love you.
Isn't this something
Happy?
Isn't this something good
I love you so much, Jess.
Isn't this something
Isn't this something good.
It's relaxing
out here, right?
Can never really relax.
What do you mean?
Just being blind,
it's exhausting.
I spent three hours
trying to find a cigarette
I dropped the other day.
It's just my life.
Just exhausting.
Why would you spend that long
looking for a cigarette?
Because they're expensive
and I'm poor.
Just, the point is,
I'm at the mercy of the world.
I-I... I hate it.
Wow.
"I'm at the mercy of
the world. I hate it."
Shut up.
That's not how...
That...
Oh, it's not?
I didn't sound
like that.
Are you sure
about that?
You know, you
got that, um...
got that tortured hot girl
thing down, don't you?
Yeah, you got that
narcissistic douche
thing down, don't you?
Oh, for sure.
I have a UTI, and I'm not
gonna have sex with you,
but thanks for the wine.
And the sandwich.
Why do you think I want
to have sex with you?
Come on.
"Welcome to Sunrise Beach,
the most beautiful view
in all of Chicago."
Okay, okay,
first of all,
I don't even want
to have sex with you.
Sure.
I'm serious.
All right, look.
I'm a dick, okay?
I sleep with everyone.
But... I don't know.
There's something
about you...
Something just
different
and special and you never felt
like this before-- please.
I sleep with everyone, too.
That's
never not worked.
Yeah, it looks like
you might be
making love
to yourself tonight.
Thank God.
Can I have your number?
Yeah, I don't think so.
Uh, do you have
Tyson's mom's address?
Oh.
Oh, cool.
I can totally see this.
Why do you
want it anyway?
Because I need Tyson's mom to
file a missing persons report.
Tyson's missing?
Didn't Darnell tell you?No.
He's dead.
Nah.
I'm pretty sure Darnell
would have mentioned that.
Well, he is.
I found him in the alley,
and whoever killed him
must have moved the body.
So there's no body?
Not yet.
Well, in
my world,
you don't panic
until a body turns up.
Well, in my world, you panic
when you feel your dead friend.
And what does Tyson's mom think?
I don't know.
You're not really gonna go
up to a mother
and tell her you think
her son is dead, are you?
I have to.
Murphy.
Look, just...
What?
Make sure you're sure.
I'm sure.
Since when are you up
at 7:00 in the morning?
I'm going to Tyson's mom's
before the barkery
thing. Pretzel.
Can I help you?
You're Tyson's mom?
Who are you?
Murphy.
I'm a... I'm a friend of his.
You're the girl that was mugged?
Yeah.
He never told me you were blind.
He always focuses
on other things.
Well, he's not home.
Okay.
That's what
you're here for, right?
Yeah.
You haven't heard
from him, have you?
He usually checks in, and...
starting to get
a little worried.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
Can I actually
use your bathroom?
S-Sure.
Can I help you?
Yeah. Thank you.
Straight past Tyson's room
at the end of the hall.
Okay, thank you.
I'll be in
the kitchen.
Okay.
You little weirdo.
'Twas in another lifetime,
one of toil and blood
When blackness was a virtue,
the road was full of mud
I came in from
the wilderness
A creature void of form
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you
Shelter from the storm"
He's not okay, is he?
And if I pass this way again,
you can rest assured
I'll always do
my best for her
On that I give my word
In a world
of steel-eyed death
And men who are fighting
to be warm
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you
Shelter from the storm"
Not a word was spoke
between us
There was little risk
involved
Everything up to that point
had been left unresolved
Try imagining a place...
There's a chance what
you felt wasn't Tyson.
You're blind.
You didn't actually
see that it was him.
That's true.
Okay.
So maybe it wasn't Tyson.
And the one-eyed undertaker,
he blows a futile horn...
I worry about that
kid all damn day.
I bet your mom worries
about you a lot, too, huh?
Yeah.
She's impossible.
It's called
being a mother.
What was Ty
listening to?
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you
Shelter from the storm"
In a little hilltop village,
they gambled for my clothes
I bargained for salvation
and she gave me a lethal dose
I offered up my innocence,
I got repaid with scorn
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you
Shelter from the storm"
Well, I'm living
in a foreign country
But I'm bound
to cross the line
Beauty walks a razor's edge,
someday I'll make it mine
If I could only
turn back the clock
To when God and her
were born
"Come in," she said,
"I'll give you
Shelter from the storm."
You look like a lunatic.
You wore a dress.
Oh, is that what this is?
Damn it.
I asked for overalls.
I'm sorry about today, Mom.
Just help me clean up. Come on.
Incoming call from that cop.
Sorry.
Hey, Dean, what's up?
I got the report on the phone.
Do you want to come in?
Right now?That would be great.
Like, I'm...
Go, go. If it's about Tyson,
just... go.
So I got
the forensics report back.
Tyson's phone was wiped.
Wiped?Completely.
And the account was closed.
We couldn't get anything
off of it.
I wish I had
better news.
Isn't that kind of suspicious
that his phone was wiped?
It's too early to tell, but now
that a report has been filed,
at least we can push forward.
Yeah, that's good.
And, uh, there is
one more thing.
I wanted to thank you
for telling my daughter
I need to get laid.
Did I?
Yes. You did.
And so she set me up
with a prostitute.
She didn't know she was
a prostitute, but still.
Oh, my God.
How was the sex?
Uh, better when you pay for it?
Be honest, be honest.,
I am...
very glad that you're amused.
Uh, in the future,
could you please
not give Chloe
any advice about
my love life, please?
What love life?
Good one, Murphy Mason.
Hell of a dress, by the way.
Thanks.
Mm.
Think I look like
a prostitute?
I mean, I'm asking you
'cause you're the expert.
Okay, bye-bye.
Bye.
I can't find you in the dark
So far away where you are
But everything
changes with time
When I run till
I see the sun shine...
Hi.
Yo.
Oh, do you need a drink?Sure.
Oh, no, I meant for the pills.
Oh, I'm done.
What?
Dog antibiotics
are finally kicking in.
Okay, you know you have to
finish the whole bottle, right?
I feel like
a million bucks.
Where did you get that thing?
So you told her you loved her
while wearing a dong?
It was oddly romantic.
Gross.
Romance isn't gross.
What the hell
was that?
Trying to see you
in the dark
Trying to
see you in the dark
Trying to see you
in the dark...
It's that food truck guy.
Seriously?
Yeah. Come here.
What do you want?
You wouldn't give
me your number.
Okay, so this
is your move?
Want to grab a drink?
No.
Tomorrow?
No!
Oh, come on!
I know where you live.So?
I'll just keep coming back.
Fine. One drink.
Whoo!
Shut up.
One drink tomorrow.
Told you romance
isn't gross.
That isn't romance.
It's borderline stalking.
Oh, yeah, then what's that
smile thingy on your face?
I don't have anything
on my face.
Just that stupid smile.Shut up.
Ugh.
What does he look like?
Blech. Horrible.
He's basically disfigured.
He's hot.
Yeah.
I can feel it.
What's that?
It's Tyson's.
Ooh.
He was into the
Fairview Mustangs?
What?
It's a program
for a dance recital
at Fairview High School.
He didn't go there.
He drew a little heart
next to "Keira Shields."
He didn't tell me
he had a girlfriend.
I need to find Keira.
Maybe she knows
what happened to Tyson.
Darnell, we in order?
Yeah, just Tyson Parker--
he's still missing.
You wiped the phone,
though, right?
We ain't got nothing
to worry about.
Yeah, but, Nia,
there's this girl.
Hangs out with him
on the corner.
I'll handle it.
