Limetown (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 9 - Apples and Oranges - full transcript

Lia's uncle, Emile Haddock, who was in Limetown, asks her to quit her investigation.

Previously on "Limetown"...

I need this, Mark.

You're ill, Lia.

You have to stop.

My name is Deirdre Wells,
and I was responsible

for The Panic at Limetown.

How long
have you had the tech? Traitor!

The turn to violence
escalated quickly after that.

In the middle of the most
traumatic thing

I've had the misfortune
of experiencing,

something miraculous happened.



Finally, it was him.

Deirdre, I need
to hear the name.

I turned the wire off because
I already knew the answer.

Psst. Apple.

Don't let them stop you.

- Hello?
- Hello, Miss Haddock.

Hello. Who is this?

Miss Haddock, I'd like you
to please listen carefully.

Are you listening?

Yes.

I have all the answers
about Limetown...

everything you've ever
wondered,

everything you're
still wondering.

Before I continue,
I need to know,



are these answers the
most important thing to you?

How do I know
that this is real?

A perfectly reasonable
question, Miss Haddock,

hence the thumb drive.

Kindly disconnect your computer
from the office Wi-Fi

and plug the thumb drive
into your laptop.

Oh, and I will know
if you are still connected,

because I'm monitoring
your desktop.

Hello. That's me.

Kindly disconnect. I'll wait.

Play the video... audio on,
of course.

Why is the light flashing?
They're gonna see us.

I'm working on it.
Does the phone work?

Where did they all come from?

That doesn't matter
right now.

Does the phone work?

- Oh, thank God.
- 911.

Hello? Can you hear me?

We need emergency services
in Limetown...

ambulances,
firemen, police.

Damn it, just send all...
the army.

- Who are you?
- Oh, we'll get to that, dear.

But I must ask again,
is knowing all the answers

the most important thing
to you?

Where have you been?
I've been calling you nonstop.

Didn't you land
three hours ago?

You can't do this, Lia,
not right now.

Jesus, Gina,
what is going on?

You don't know.

Know what?

Lia, Mark is dead.

Wait. W-what?

He was found dead
in his apartment.

He hit his head.
He bled to death.

He tried calling me around
the time it happened,

but he didn't leave a message.

I wa... I was just with him.

Before I flew...

we...

we slept together
at his apartment,

and then...

and then I just left
for the airport.

Gina, was he... was he murdered?

I don't know.

But you don't think...

- I do.
- You...

Considering Max's murder
and probably Warren's...

- It should have been me.
- Don't say that.

- I did all of this.
- Don't think like that.

It's not helping anyone.

Okay.

I came in here because
I think I have this major lead,

but...

but now I just can't.

What is it?

There's someone who claims
to have all the answers

to everything
we've been looking for...

I mean, what happened
after The Panic,

where everyone is now.

Is it credible?

I believe the source.

Why?

Because she has footage

of the 911 call
from inside Limetown.

What?

I have an address
I can't share,

and I have to broadcast it live,

which is just...

I don't... I don't know.

You don't know what?

It's just... it's not right.
I can't... I can't do this.

Lia, the best thing
you can do for Mark

is to do your job, find out
who's responsible for all this.

Yes?

Uh, oh, thank you.
I'll be right there.

That was reception.

You're going to walk out
of here right now.

Don't go out the front.
Don't go out the employee exit.

Go downstairs and out on 4th.

The FBI is about to seize
everything related to Limetown.

I hope you have
what you need with you.

I'll make sure
the broadcast goes out.

Thanks, Gina.

- Can I get you something?
- Uh, coffee, black.

Okay. Sure.

Apple...

I found you.

All right, look...

this is hard, so, um...

I'll just...

start.

I know how much
you've gone through.

And I know that I certainly
played a role in that.

And I'm really sorry.

But the people...

Who are responsible

for what's happening
right now...

for killing Max, Warren,

for threatening your mother...

those people would like
to erase Limetown

and pretend it never existed.

They want to erase the tech.

They want to erase the people,
and they almost did.

But you have made sure that
they didn't erase the story.

And the story is
the most powerful thing,

and it's out there now,
and everybody knows about it,

and they can't bury it
in a shallow grave

like they did
with everything else.

You did that.
You did that, Lia.

You have accomplished so much.

You are so smart.

I wasn't so sure
you would pick up the trail

in Wyoming, but...

So you convinced Winona
to speak to me...

and then Warren?

Yeah, but you got to Max
and to Deirdre.

You did that on your own.

You're very good.

I'm very... very proud of you.

You've always been very good.

But you knew where to find me
this whole time.

I could not be in contact
with someone I love.

But people got hurt anyway.

- People are dead.
- I know. I know.

I know that. I know.

I didn't think it was gonna
turn out like this.

I really didn't.

I had no idea
that they were capable

of what they're capable of.

But it can end right now.

You're asking me to stop?

Mm-hmm.

Yes, I am... right now.

We'll walk out of here,
we'll walk away from Limetown,

and we'll start over again...

you, me, and your mother.

- No more secrets?
- No. No.

No more secrets.

I've tried so hard
to fix my mistakes

for so many years,
and I just can't.

I keep failing...

over and over and over
and over again,

so I can't do it anymore.

I need you...

Apple.

- You know who this is?
- Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

Come with me instead.

Come with me, and we'll finish
what you started.

No. I can't.

You owe this to us.

No.

I...

That's not gonna work, Lia.

Why not?

I know you have
no real reason to listen to me,

but that person right there...

Is the single
most terrifying person

that I have ever met
in my life.

I have looked into the minds

of thousands and thousands
and thousands of people...

the good, the bad,
and the ugly...

and she is none of those.

She is something else...

something
that I have never been able

to make sense of
in all the years since.

That person is capable
of anything,

and you cannot...
you cannot go there.

But is what she's saying true?
Does she have all the answers?

Yes.

But I can tell you
with great certainty...

That the whole truth

is not something
that you want to learn.

If you talk to me
on the record,

then I don't have to go.

No, honey.

No, I can't do that.

- Help me.
- No, Lia, I can't.

Lia, I am not even
supposed to exist...

and it has to stay that way.

Then I have to see the story
to the end.

No, you don't.

Let this be the end.

Let this just be
the end of it, okay?

You're just scared.

You have no idea...

what I have been through.

You have no idea
what I have sacrificed.

I was alone.

And I'm still alone.

You have no idea
what I've been through.

You were alone by choice.

I'm alone 'cause everybody left.

You left.

Lia.

It's... wait. No, Apple, don't.

No, no, no. Don't. Don't.

Please. Please don't.
No, please don't go.

Please.

Hi.
You've reached Jacob Haddock.

Please leave a brief message,
unless it's Lia,

in which case,
I know that's impossible.

Voice mail box full.

Hey.

- Hey.
- You ready?

Are you ready?
We've gone viral.

- You're live, Lia.
- Okay.

Well, I hope
this thing is working.

Check, check, check.
Test. Test.

Testing. Sounds good to me.

Okay, well, welcome, everyone
who is listening right now.

As you can tell, this is kind
of an on-the-fly operation.

Um...

I am about
to be speaking with...

Uh, well, t-that's unclear,

and all I know
is that it's someone

who has information
about Limetown

and, more importantly,

someone who probably
has physical evidence

from The Panic...

and more maybe.

Aha.

Lia Haddock?

Yes. Hi.

Hello, Lia Haddock.

Would you like to come on in?

I'm the only one here,
and I don't bite.

Come on.

Okay.

Here we go.

Why did you just start
the timer?

What do you think the tech
developed in Limetown is worth?

Whatever you think it is,
it's more than that.

So now, ask yourself

how far somebody would go
to protect that.

If you could rule the world...
and I mean really rule it...

where would you draw the line

on allowing anything
to endanger your success?

Ding.

Brace yourself.
