Resident Alien (2021–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - Heroes of Patience - full transcript
On the verge of completing his mission, Harry faces his own humanity.
- Previously
on "Resident Alien"...
- Oh!
- Aah!
- So what happened to the real
Harry Vanderspeigle?
- I don't know.
- Dr. Vanderspeigle,
a new doctor has arrived.
- Please call me Dr. Ethan.
- I'm glad you know about me.
- Nobody wants to hide
who they really are.
- You should stop feeling
guilty about giving away Jay.
She is a survivor.
- He will die.
- My leg--
chop it off.
- Aah!
- If Asta wasn't there,
I would be dead.
- They took your spaceship,
didn't they?
That means they're after you.
It's probably M.I.B.--
men in black.
- I invited a friend over
with her husband.
This is Sarah
and Richard Houston.
You can babysit Max
whenever you want.
- Oh, I would love that.
- You shouldn't
have taken that.
Now the kid's gonna know
we were in his room.
- Good.
Then when he goes to warn it,
we'll be right on its tail.
- Asta!
Are you in there?
- Everyone has to die.
It is the normal
cycle of life
for beings across
the entire universe.
Some may live longer
than others,
but every organism
comes into being
and then ceases being.
The animals know this.
They live in harmony
with the Earth,
as it was meant to be.
Everyone I kill with my device
is going to die anyway.
At least I'm killing them
for a good reason.
It's different for humans.
Humans kill because they know
they're small,
insignificant, weak.
And killing makes them
feel strong...
even if it's just
for a moment.
And when humans are smart,
they may even get away
with murder.
Of course, no being really
gets away with anything.
The universe knows
what you have done,
even if nobody else does.
And the universe
will restore balance
one way or another.
Humans have a word for this.
They call it "karma."
- I thought you said
Asta's car was here.
- Oh.
Calling me a liar?
- Well, if the shoe fits,
D'arce.
- Please don't fight.
Look, D'arce, we're all just
freaking out a little bit.
Like, this is bad.
- You damn near
gave me a heart attack
banging on my door like that
at the crack of dawn.
- Oh, I'm so sorry
that finding the dead body
of the man I love
locked in a freezer
is so inconvenient for you!
All right?
It's a human life, asshole.
Okay?
Harry is dead.
- What is going on out here?
I'm standing here wondering
why I ain't home in bed.
- Thank God you're alive.
- This is--no, it's impossible.
- She is worse than your dog.
- Yeah, well, I didn't have
the heart to wake Cletus up.
He was in REM sleep
chasing goats.
- I'll get her.
- Sorry about this, Dr. V,
but, uh, D'arcy broke
into your cellar last night
and she thinks she saw
a dead you in the freezer.
- Mm.
- I told her it was probably
just some meat in there
that looked like you,
like a frozen pig or something.
- I am more handsome
than a pig.
- Oh, me too.
Yeah, man, I'm probably
somewhere between a pig
and a dolphin.
You know, that dolphin,
that's a fine-ass animal.
- It's nothing but meat.
- You moved the body.
- Sure enough.
And here it is.
- No, I meant
the dead guy, dipshit.
Obviously it's not him,
but I saw
a dead body down there.
Why was Asta's car outside?
- We went to a medical
conference together.
You smell like alcohol.
- Okay, come on, D'arce.
You have to go now.
I'll buy you breakfast.
- No.
No!
I know what I saw.
Stop trying to gaslight me.
I know I'm not crazy.
- The deputy said...
it's time to go.
- What? No.
No!
- Let's--
- Get your ------- hands
off me!
- Oh, dear.
- Ah!
Help me, Deputy!
She on me like a spider!
- Dish it out--
- It's unfortunate I have to
kill everyone and leave here.
The warmth of spring
is just arriving.
- Ow!
- Let go of my damn hair!
Ah!
- Let go of his hair.
- Ah, get your damn--
- D'arcy, let go of the chair.
- Yes.
- Take that!
- You spit--
- It is quite nice here.
- Handcuffs,
that's what they're for.
They're for cuffing hands!
Come on.
Come on.
I give you credit.
- Okay.
- You fight like a pack
of pit bulls.
- Ugh, come on, hit me!
You know you want to
hit me, Sheriff.
Do it!
- Please stop struggling!
It's gonna be okay,
I'll drive your car back.
- Ow!
- Get in the car!
- I'm sorry about this, Doctor.
- Yes, I'm very upset
at this intrusion.
- "I'm gonna read you
your rights."
What do I say?
Tell me what I say!
- That's the problem.
- Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!
Okay, all right, all right,
all right, all right.
- Pull it up.
I have to see this.
- Aye.
There, she's stealing it.
- I knew it.
She's a woman in a purple
skirt, man in black.
- We have to warn Harry.
- Told you he'd lead us
to the alien.
- You want to tell me
what happened?
I'm worried about you.
- You're overreacting.
It's not like you've never
bailed me out of jail before.
- "Overreacting"?
Cool.
I woke up this morning
to a hundred texts
and a voicemail
from you screaming,
"He's dead!
He's dead!"
- All right, look,
I know what happened.
All right?
You and Harry murdered a guy.
It happens,
but I'm here for you.
We're gonna take my car
to Canada.
From there, I've got an old
ski buddy in Juneau.
There's a safe deposit box,
1,000 bucks to keep us going.
Three passports.
So...
- That's... a lot to process.
Uh, but, no,
I did not kill anyone.
- Are you sure?
I'd remember.
- Right.
Right.
Cool, so the Sheriff was right.
I'm seeing things.
New low.
- D'arcy, what did you do?
- I sort of broke
into Harry's house last night,
and I saw a freezer
full of meat,
and I thought
it was a dead body.
- D'arce,
how much did you have to drink?
- Barely anything to drink.
I had a couple edibles
and a pill I found in my couch.
- Come on!
- Look...
you're obviously keeping
some big secret from me.
- You're my best friend!
I would not keep secrets
from you.
- You're lying.
- No, I'm not.
- Yes, you are.
- No.
- You have a tell, remember?
When you're lying,
you get overly huggy
and touchy.
- That's not true.
D'arce, come on.
- Thanks for bailing me out.
I got to go.
- D'arcy.
God.
- Slow down.
You're too close.
- Jesus Christ, it's like
driving with my grandmother.
"Why don't you go
out back, Memaw,
and knit me a sweater?"
Great, you distracted me, now
we're losing the little shit.
- Oh, my God.
Are--are you all right?
- Watch your language, please.
And you owe me $100
for the bike.
- Um...
looks fine to me.
- I'd be happy
to wait for the police.
- Pay the girl.
You're the one who made me
run her over.
Let's go.
Now we've lost him.
- Pleasure.
- Taking so long.
- It's $100.
- My device is at full power.
With one press of the button,
the timer will begin,
and roughly
90 Earth minutes later,
8 billion humans
will cease to exist.
This is the moment
I fulfill the mission
that will change the course
of the universe forever.
Are you dreaming of pizza?
Mama Sap's Pizza is now open
in the heart
of downtown Patience!
I can't kill everyone on Earth
with an empty stomach.
- Is Jay working here?
- I gave her a part-time job.
- Dad, I don't think
that's a good idea.
- You're friends with an alien,
and Jay's a bad idea?
- Oh, she's coming over.
Get out of here!
- Hey.
- Hey.
Um, I see you have a new job.
- Yeah.
First day.
- Cool.
- Look, D'arcy told me
what happened on the mountain.
Just wanted to make sure
you didn't lose
any fingers or toes
or anything.
- Uh, no.
Um...
Got 'em!
Look, I was gonna tell you
that if you ever want to talk
about...
everything, anything, I'm here.
- You want me to talk to you
about you?
- Well...
I was thinking we could--
- No.
- Sure.
Yeah.
- You know, I should
get back to work.
- Of course.
It was nice to see you.
Hello.
- Hello.
- Hello, Miss Twelvetrees.
- Help yourself.
- I know that you know.
I know that you know.
Does she know?
- "She" has a name.
And she knows.
She knows a lot.
We have a situation.
- The government is after him.
They know that I know
who he is.
- What?
How?
- Because they're
the government.
Don't be so naive.
- Excuse me?
- I'm sorry.
Sometimes I speak to adults
like they're my peers
because I'm mature for my age.
I'm working on it.
- I hid a camera in my room,
and I saw them search my house.
- What?
- And they went back
to their base,
and now they're driving around
searching for him.
- How do you know
where their base is?
- We have our ways.
Where is my phone?
- I learned from the squirrels
that when you've filled
your stomach,
you should take as much food
as you can to eat later.
With this pizza stack,
I can kill everyone
and still have pizza
to eat for days.
And now, with a belly
that's bursting
like a stuffed garbage bag,
there's nothing stopping me
from completing my mission.
I should test it first.
- Okay, you two.
I'll be upstairs on the
treadmill if you need anything.
Sahar, thank you again for
helping Max with his homework.
- I don't mind.
I want to be a teacher
when I'm old, like you.
- Wow.
I'm not old.
I'm young, okay?
My life is not passing me by.
I'm just--just living it.
But that's--that's wonderful.
It's just wonderful.
- This... makes no sense.
It says the phone is here.
- You're tracking
the wrong phone.
Put it on your mom's.
- It is on my mom's.
- It can't be.
I put your mom's phone
right under the RV.
- Lock the front door.
I'll get the back.
Don't be afraid.
We just need your help.
- I'm not giving
your 100 bucks back.
- My device uses
the Earth's own energy
to send a pulse
throughout the world
that will kill every human.
I can also direct it
to a singular point
and get rid of this body.
- Will it hurt?
- You again?
- You know
you're just stalling.
You're afraid to kill everyone.
- No, I'm not.
My people do not feel fear.
- Yes, but you're not
your people anymore, are you?
You've been infected
with humanity.
- I don't need to listen
to this!
- I was supposed to die
of old age with Isabelle.
I even bought a plot
in Upstate New York
under the most beautiful
maple tree.
We were supposed to be
next to each other forever.
- Do you miss her?
- I miss a lot of things...
the five senses...
driving around
with nowhere to go...
tacos.
But I loved Isabelle.
- How do you know?
- How do I know
I loved my wife?
- What did it feel like?
- It feels like...
life.
Like everything
you've ever felt.
The joy and the fury
held in your heart
and wrapped in...
hope...
hope that everything
will be okay.
Love makes you feel
connected to everything.
Make you feel light-headed,
you feel like you're floating.
- I love Isabelle, too.
- You're an asshole.
You don't even know her!
- I do.
When she left...
my heart felt
like it was falling.
- That's rejection.
That's not love.
- Then why do I feel
the other things?
I feel hope.
I feel connected to everyone...
to everything.
- I used to feel those things.
You took it all from me.
- I'm sorry.
- You didn't just take Isabelle
away from me.
When you killed me,
you took me away from Isabelle.
She needs me.
- Stop.
Stop doing that with your eyes.
- When you killed me,
you killed her.
- No.
- Yes!
She cries every day.
- No.
No, she doesn't.
- You broke her heart!
- Stop!
- Harry, uh,
where are you?
Please call me
when you get this.
I need to talk to you.
- Hey, Asta.
How you doing?
- Oh, hey.
Um...
I need to leave early.
Is that okay?
- That's fine.
It's slow.
I'll hold down the fort.
- Okay.
Thank you.
- Hey, Asta,
can you help me out?
I need that dead foot.
- Really?
- Yeah.
I found a boot.
I need to see if it's a match.
There might be another murder
in town.
- So you're telling me
eventually
that thing
will look like that one?
Where did you get the boot?
- On the shore next to
Dr. Vanderspeigle's house.
- So what happened to the real
Harry Vanderspeigle?
- I don't know.
- I sort of broke
into Harry's house last night,
and I saw a freezer
full of meat,
and I thought
it was a dead body.
- Another murder is horrible,
but we're gonna get
who did this.
Promise.
Okay?
- She has her earphones in.
She can't hear anything.
- I could scream louder
than her workout songs.
I can get her down here
in two seconds!
- Well, you're not gonna like
what happens to her
when you do that.
You need to tell us
where this alien is,
you little shits.
- Why should we?
- Because it's here
to kill us all.
- If you think I am afraid
to kill everybody,
you are dumb!
I could press this button
at any time.
If you agree with me
and I am right
and you are wrong,
then just sit there dead
and don't say anything.
Okay, then.
We agree.
Goodbye, only human
in the room.
That's impossible.
The energy doesn't affect
my people.
Was he right?
Am I no longer my people?
But that means
if I set off my device,
it will kill me, too.
- Hey.
What are you doing out here?
- Nothing.
Just making up nicknames
for everybody who walks by.
Want to have a seat,
Mr. Short Pants?
- Cool, guess I'll be throwing
these out when I get home.
This is the same bench
that we sat on
that day we skipped
Mrs. Henderson's science class.
- God, you're right.
- That's a long time ago.
- Are you okay?
- I...
remember being so happy
that day.
That was right before
I left for Stratton.
I remember feeling like...
my life was just starting.
- Yeah, you've always
been happy like that.
It's what I love about you.
You know,
it's what everyone loves.
- I'm not happy.
- You're not?
- Are you?
- Well, no.
But I was never really happy
to begin with.
- So...
- Yeah, well, I had a chance
at being happy, but...
it just went away, you know?
I hurt my leg, and that was it.
- Hey...
You can be happy.
Look, I'm gonna play
the nickname game with you,
and your nickname is Miss...
You're Amazing.
- All right.
Well, you're...
bad at that game.
But it's true.
I mean, you've accomplished
so much in your life.
- Shut up.
I-I'm not amazing.
I-I feel like I've done
nothing with my life.
I just...
wanted to--
I just wanted to matter...
make a difference
to somebody, I--
Maybe it's all just bullshit.
- No, you matter.
You're smart and funny.
I-I wish I was like you.
I'm terrified
of pretty much everything.
But sometimes
I look at you, and...
you're so fearless.
It makes me feel,
I don't know, less scared.
You know, you make me happy.
Um...
what are you doing?
- Sorry.
- I'm married, D'arcy.
- Sorry about that.
Yeah.
- Oh, my God.
- I'm so sorry,
I thought that--
- Uh, no, it's okay.
I got to go.
- Right, right.
Got to--got to go.
Shit!
Ahh.
- Please, Max,
you have to trust me.
He is going to kill everyone.
Tell us who he is.
- He's not going
to kill everyone.
- His ship
is a Quimbaya amulet.
- Max, he's going
to kill everyone.
- He won't.
He'll listen to me!
- Why are you in my house?
Sarah, what is going on?
- "Hey, honey."
"Good evening, sweetheart."
"Oh, yeah, day was good.
What's for dinner?
Divorce?
Great."
Lock the door?
That's weird.
- Okay, take
whatever you want.
Please.
- Don't make me use this gun.
- Oh, my God, oh, my God.
- Don't hurt the kids.
- Mike, I need your help.
There's people in my house.
My family is in there.
They have a gun.
- What?
Okay, all right, look.
Do not move.
Don't go inside.
We'll be there in five minutes,
all right?
- No, no, no, we don't have
five minutes.
- Look, do not go inside!
We're on the way.
Deputy!
- Shit!
- Shit!
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Help.
- Let me out of here!
If you touch my kid,
I will kill you!
- Max, who is that?
Why is he wearing
a white coat, hmm?
- Okay, I'll tell you.
- I swear to God!
Get away from my kid!
- Okay, he told us who it is.
We got what we need.
Let's go.
- Hold on, Max!
- Whoa, we're not doing that.
- We're doing whatever
I say we're doing.
- Get down.
- You guys are like Daredevil
and the Black Widow.
- Thank you for saving my life.
- Time to go.
- These things don't usually
have a happy ending.
It could've been a lot worse.
- Yeah, I don't recommend
citizens taking the law
into their own hands,
but that was--
that was some real hero shit
the two of you did in there.
- Well, we're
a pretty good team.
- Yes, we are.
- You both have blood,
like, all over your shoes.
- I'm never washing them.
- Me neither.
- Oh, no.
- That's a lot of tongue.
- You trying to get
all the way in the back?
Y'all nasty.
- Really?
- Y'all got a room
right upstairs.
- Oh, boy.
- How's that article coming?
Need another quote?
- Asta's my mother.
- Yeah.
Sheriff Mike's my father.
You--
Holy shit.
You're the baby.
- I'm not surprised
she didn't tell you.
She's been keeping it a secret.
- Yeah.
Yeah, she has.
- I don't know what to do.
She's my mother,
and I don't even know
how to act in front of her.
Not to mention my father.
- Oh.
Right.
Jimmy.
- It's so messed up.
What am I supposed to say
to someone like that?
I mean, I'm gonna see him.
And I can't talk to Asta.
I can't talk to my parents.
I probably shouldn't even be
talking to you right now,
but I feel
like I am losing my mind
and I need someone
in this town to talk to--
- Hey, hey, hey.
Hey, hey, hey!
You can totally talk to me.
- I can't live here
like this, okay?
I can't do--
- You are not running away
from this.
And you are not alone.
I can help you.
Hey.
Can you get free onion rings?
It's part of the plan.
Yeah, okay.
- You killed
Harry Vanderspeigle.
- No, I didn't.
- Do not lie to me.
- Okay, I killed him,
but he started it.
- Do you have any idea
what you did?
You cannot just murder someone.
That is not how it works here.
- Humans kill people
all the time.
Someone killed
Sam Hodges, so...
- Yeah, and you saw
what that did to me,
to all of us,
and you did the same thing.
No.
Goodbye. This is done.
We are done.
- No, don't say that.
Wait, wait.
- What?
What?
- It'll be okay.
It's like the song.
"Ooh, child, things are going
to get easier."
"Ooh, child"--
Stop.
- Don't touch me!
- I'm sorry.
You just can't leave me.
- Don't tell me
what I can and cannot do.
Wow, you are really
getting a hang
of this human-male bullshit.
- Don't go.
It hurts!
It's--
it's you.
You're the reason
that I feel it--
the joy and the fury
all wrapped up.
- You want fury?
Go back to your planet, Harry.
Whoever you are,
whatever you are,
I never want to see you again.
- But we are friends.
- I am not friends
with people--
I mean... not people.
I don't know what you are.
But I know what you're not.
You are not my friend.
- I thought you were my friend.
I do not like this.
I don't like this place
anymore.
- So, I, uh...
I guess you're my father.
Yeah.
- If you ever touch Asta again,
I'll ------- kill you.
- Feel better?
- Oh, D'arcy,
what are you--
D'arcy, don't!
Ugh!
Son of a bi--
D'arcy!
Oh!
Oh, no, no, no, no, no!
Look out!
Out of the way!
- Oh.
- Yeah.
Yeah, I feel better.
- Yeah, me too.
We--we should go now.
Miss Twelvetrees?
Hey, it's Max Hawthorne.
I need your help.
Harry's here to kill everyone,
and I think I know
where he's going.
- Excuse me.
Are you the town doctor?
- Yes, I am.
Oh, that is a nasty cut--
Town doctor.
That kid was right.
He is the prettiest alien
I've ever seen.
Yeah.
Just be careful, all right?
We don't know what this
monster's capable of.
- Yeah.
- Move, move. Let's go.
- Whoa.
What--what the hell is this?
- Come on.
- I knew you were real.
- Okay.
I-I got you your alien.
So now I'm officially done
with her.
- Aw.
- I'm sorry.
This woman is...
an unhinged psychotic.
- I agree completely.
- Close it up!
- Wait, are you--are you guys
men in black?
- Oh, would you stop it.
They're not called that.
You've watched too many movies.
And if I wanted them involved,
I would've told my superiors.
And then we wouldn't have
an alien, would we?
- Who's we?
- This is bigger than anything
you could imagine.
Too bad you won't be here
to see how it all plays out.
Get rid of him.
- I told you.
I have different orders.
- Okay, um...
Kill ya later.
- See, I don't get it.
I mean, first Sam,
then this roving couple
going around terrorizing
people.
Don't get me wrong,
I like the mayhem.
- Mm-hmm.
- I like it a lot.
I might like it a little
too much, if that's possible.
- It is.
It's quite frightening,
actually.
Don't forget the foot
with the matching boot.
But...
can it all really be
just a coincidence?
- I don't believe
in coincidence.
- Oh, me neither.
- So both the boot
and the foot
were found in the same area
right by
Dr. Vanderspeigle's place.
- Yeah, you mean the boot,
the foot, and the doorknob.
That thing definitely didn't
come from no houseboat,
that's for sure.
Looks like we might have
a new prime suspect.
Let's go visit
Dr. Vanderspeigle
tomorrow morning, see
if he's got anything to add.
- What is that?
Oh!
Oh...my ...d.
Is this a Nespresso?
- It's nothing, man.
I just picked that up
for the office.
It was on sale.
- Yes, yes!
Oh, my God, oh, my God!
You got me
a coffee pod machine!
- Oh, what are you doing?
I got that
for the whole office.
What are you doing?
- Nope.
You got it for me,
and you agree
with my doorknob instincts.
- You got decent
doorknob instincts, all right?
But this whole thing
is for everybody.
It ain't just for you.
- Nope.
- What are you doing?
- Nope.
You got it for me.
- You in the vehicle!
Let me see your hands!
- I have no choice now,
since my device
will destroy me.
I will fly away from here
and drop the device
onto this beautiful planet
to finish the job I started.
- Whoa.
- Go, go, go!
- Double up, double up!
- Harry!
- There's more!
- Freeze!
Hold it right there.
- Oh, no.
I forgot the pizzas.
Maybe I can go back
and get them.
I could take the ship
and pick them up
on my way to space.
I can't because
of this stupid mission.
I am so hungry.
They look like black ants.
Where is your queen?
- Come on.
- Get down.
- Harry!
- Run, Max!
Hide!
- Harry...
I know why you're here.
Don't do it.
Please don't do it.
- I must.
It's why I came here.
- I don't care.
You're not the same.
You've changed
since you came here,
since you killed that man.
I've seen it.
I just saw it now.
You could've left,
but you stayed to help us.
You've changed.
- No.
My mission is to kill everyone.
- If you kill everyone,
you kill me.
- You are right,
I have changed, but--
- There's my friend.
- We are friends?
- Yes.
We are friends.
- So, that means you will come
with me to my planet
and we will kill everyone
on Earth together?
- What?
No.
I-I'm--I'm staying here.
- Then I won't kill everyone.
Okay, good.
- I will miss you, friend.
- I'll miss you, too, friend.
- I should dispose
of my device.
It will kill everyone on Earth
when it detonates
in 80 seconds.
- Oh, my God.
Yes.
Go.
Go!
- Real quick...
I left some pizzas
in my freezer.
You can have them
if you want them.
- Thank you.
Go!
- Everyone has to die
eventually.
What matters are the choices
you make while you're alive.
Killing may make humans
feel strong in the moment,
but what I've begun
to realize is,
true strength comes
from choosing not to kill.
Maybe being truly human
is about choosing to love
instead.
But with that love
comes the pain
that I feel inside me.
I need to go home.
Hopefully the further
I get from them,
the less I will care.
Finally, I will be
at peace again.
Hi.
You're taking me home, right?
- This is some bullshit!
Ugh.
on "Resident Alien"...
- Oh!
- Aah!
- So what happened to the real
Harry Vanderspeigle?
- I don't know.
- Dr. Vanderspeigle,
a new doctor has arrived.
- Please call me Dr. Ethan.
- I'm glad you know about me.
- Nobody wants to hide
who they really are.
- You should stop feeling
guilty about giving away Jay.
She is a survivor.
- He will die.
- My leg--
chop it off.
- Aah!
- If Asta wasn't there,
I would be dead.
- They took your spaceship,
didn't they?
That means they're after you.
It's probably M.I.B.--
men in black.
- I invited a friend over
with her husband.
This is Sarah
and Richard Houston.
You can babysit Max
whenever you want.
- Oh, I would love that.
- You shouldn't
have taken that.
Now the kid's gonna know
we were in his room.
- Good.
Then when he goes to warn it,
we'll be right on its tail.
- Asta!
Are you in there?
- Everyone has to die.
It is the normal
cycle of life
for beings across
the entire universe.
Some may live longer
than others,
but every organism
comes into being
and then ceases being.
The animals know this.
They live in harmony
with the Earth,
as it was meant to be.
Everyone I kill with my device
is going to die anyway.
At least I'm killing them
for a good reason.
It's different for humans.
Humans kill because they know
they're small,
insignificant, weak.
And killing makes them
feel strong...
even if it's just
for a moment.
And when humans are smart,
they may even get away
with murder.
Of course, no being really
gets away with anything.
The universe knows
what you have done,
even if nobody else does.
And the universe
will restore balance
one way or another.
Humans have a word for this.
They call it "karma."
- I thought you said
Asta's car was here.
- Oh.
Calling me a liar?
- Well, if the shoe fits,
D'arce.
- Please don't fight.
Look, D'arce, we're all just
freaking out a little bit.
Like, this is bad.
- You damn near
gave me a heart attack
banging on my door like that
at the crack of dawn.
- Oh, I'm so sorry
that finding the dead body
of the man I love
locked in a freezer
is so inconvenient for you!
All right?
It's a human life, asshole.
Okay?
Harry is dead.
- What is going on out here?
I'm standing here wondering
why I ain't home in bed.
- Thank God you're alive.
- This is--no, it's impossible.
- She is worse than your dog.
- Yeah, well, I didn't have
the heart to wake Cletus up.
He was in REM sleep
chasing goats.
- I'll get her.
- Sorry about this, Dr. V,
but, uh, D'arcy broke
into your cellar last night
and she thinks she saw
a dead you in the freezer.
- Mm.
- I told her it was probably
just some meat in there
that looked like you,
like a frozen pig or something.
- I am more handsome
than a pig.
- Oh, me too.
Yeah, man, I'm probably
somewhere between a pig
and a dolphin.
You know, that dolphin,
that's a fine-ass animal.
- It's nothing but meat.
- You moved the body.
- Sure enough.
And here it is.
- No, I meant
the dead guy, dipshit.
Obviously it's not him,
but I saw
a dead body down there.
Why was Asta's car outside?
- We went to a medical
conference together.
You smell like alcohol.
- Okay, come on, D'arce.
You have to go now.
I'll buy you breakfast.
- No.
No!
I know what I saw.
Stop trying to gaslight me.
I know I'm not crazy.
- The deputy said...
it's time to go.
- What? No.
No!
- Let's--
- Get your ------- hands
off me!
- Oh, dear.
- Ah!
Help me, Deputy!
She on me like a spider!
- Dish it out--
- It's unfortunate I have to
kill everyone and leave here.
The warmth of spring
is just arriving.
- Ow!
- Let go of my damn hair!
Ah!
- Let go of his hair.
- Ah, get your damn--
- D'arcy, let go of the chair.
- Yes.
- Take that!
- You spit--
- It is quite nice here.
- Handcuffs,
that's what they're for.
They're for cuffing hands!
Come on.
Come on.
I give you credit.
- Okay.
- You fight like a pack
of pit bulls.
- Ugh, come on, hit me!
You know you want to
hit me, Sheriff.
Do it!
- Please stop struggling!
It's gonna be okay,
I'll drive your car back.
- Ow!
- Get in the car!
- I'm sorry about this, Doctor.
- Yes, I'm very upset
at this intrusion.
- "I'm gonna read you
your rights."
What do I say?
Tell me what I say!
- That's the problem.
- Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!
Okay, all right, all right,
all right, all right.
- Pull it up.
I have to see this.
- Aye.
There, she's stealing it.
- I knew it.
She's a woman in a purple
skirt, man in black.
- We have to warn Harry.
- Told you he'd lead us
to the alien.
- You want to tell me
what happened?
I'm worried about you.
- You're overreacting.
It's not like you've never
bailed me out of jail before.
- "Overreacting"?
Cool.
I woke up this morning
to a hundred texts
and a voicemail
from you screaming,
"He's dead!
He's dead!"
- All right, look,
I know what happened.
All right?
You and Harry murdered a guy.
It happens,
but I'm here for you.
We're gonna take my car
to Canada.
From there, I've got an old
ski buddy in Juneau.
There's a safe deposit box,
1,000 bucks to keep us going.
Three passports.
So...
- That's... a lot to process.
Uh, but, no,
I did not kill anyone.
- Are you sure?
I'd remember.
- Right.
Right.
Cool, so the Sheriff was right.
I'm seeing things.
New low.
- D'arcy, what did you do?
- I sort of broke
into Harry's house last night,
and I saw a freezer
full of meat,
and I thought
it was a dead body.
- D'arce,
how much did you have to drink?
- Barely anything to drink.
I had a couple edibles
and a pill I found in my couch.
- Come on!
- Look...
you're obviously keeping
some big secret from me.
- You're my best friend!
I would not keep secrets
from you.
- You're lying.
- No, I'm not.
- Yes, you are.
- No.
- You have a tell, remember?
When you're lying,
you get overly huggy
and touchy.
- That's not true.
D'arce, come on.
- Thanks for bailing me out.
I got to go.
- D'arcy.
God.
- Slow down.
You're too close.
- Jesus Christ, it's like
driving with my grandmother.
"Why don't you go
out back, Memaw,
and knit me a sweater?"
Great, you distracted me, now
we're losing the little shit.
- Oh, my God.
Are--are you all right?
- Watch your language, please.
And you owe me $100
for the bike.
- Um...
looks fine to me.
- I'd be happy
to wait for the police.
- Pay the girl.
You're the one who made me
run her over.
Let's go.
Now we've lost him.
- Pleasure.
- Taking so long.
- It's $100.
- My device is at full power.
With one press of the button,
the timer will begin,
and roughly
90 Earth minutes later,
8 billion humans
will cease to exist.
This is the moment
I fulfill the mission
that will change the course
of the universe forever.
Are you dreaming of pizza?
Mama Sap's Pizza is now open
in the heart
of downtown Patience!
I can't kill everyone on Earth
with an empty stomach.
- Is Jay working here?
- I gave her a part-time job.
- Dad, I don't think
that's a good idea.
- You're friends with an alien,
and Jay's a bad idea?
- Oh, she's coming over.
Get out of here!
- Hey.
- Hey.
Um, I see you have a new job.
- Yeah.
First day.
- Cool.
- Look, D'arcy told me
what happened on the mountain.
Just wanted to make sure
you didn't lose
any fingers or toes
or anything.
- Uh, no.
Um...
Got 'em!
Look, I was gonna tell you
that if you ever want to talk
about...
everything, anything, I'm here.
- You want me to talk to you
about you?
- Well...
I was thinking we could--
- No.
- Sure.
Yeah.
- You know, I should
get back to work.
- Of course.
It was nice to see you.
Hello.
- Hello.
- Hello, Miss Twelvetrees.
- Help yourself.
- I know that you know.
I know that you know.
Does she know?
- "She" has a name.
And she knows.
She knows a lot.
We have a situation.
- The government is after him.
They know that I know
who he is.
- What?
How?
- Because they're
the government.
Don't be so naive.
- Excuse me?
- I'm sorry.
Sometimes I speak to adults
like they're my peers
because I'm mature for my age.
I'm working on it.
- I hid a camera in my room,
and I saw them search my house.
- What?
- And they went back
to their base,
and now they're driving around
searching for him.
- How do you know
where their base is?
- We have our ways.
Where is my phone?
- I learned from the squirrels
that when you've filled
your stomach,
you should take as much food
as you can to eat later.
With this pizza stack,
I can kill everyone
and still have pizza
to eat for days.
And now, with a belly
that's bursting
like a stuffed garbage bag,
there's nothing stopping me
from completing my mission.
I should test it first.
- Okay, you two.
I'll be upstairs on the
treadmill if you need anything.
Sahar, thank you again for
helping Max with his homework.
- I don't mind.
I want to be a teacher
when I'm old, like you.
- Wow.
I'm not old.
I'm young, okay?
My life is not passing me by.
I'm just--just living it.
But that's--that's wonderful.
It's just wonderful.
- This... makes no sense.
It says the phone is here.
- You're tracking
the wrong phone.
Put it on your mom's.
- It is on my mom's.
- It can't be.
I put your mom's phone
right under the RV.
- Lock the front door.
I'll get the back.
Don't be afraid.
We just need your help.
- I'm not giving
your 100 bucks back.
- My device uses
the Earth's own energy
to send a pulse
throughout the world
that will kill every human.
I can also direct it
to a singular point
and get rid of this body.
- Will it hurt?
- You again?
- You know
you're just stalling.
You're afraid to kill everyone.
- No, I'm not.
My people do not feel fear.
- Yes, but you're not
your people anymore, are you?
You've been infected
with humanity.
- I don't need to listen
to this!
- I was supposed to die
of old age with Isabelle.
I even bought a plot
in Upstate New York
under the most beautiful
maple tree.
We were supposed to be
next to each other forever.
- Do you miss her?
- I miss a lot of things...
the five senses...
driving around
with nowhere to go...
tacos.
But I loved Isabelle.
- How do you know?
- How do I know
I loved my wife?
- What did it feel like?
- It feels like...
life.
Like everything
you've ever felt.
The joy and the fury
held in your heart
and wrapped in...
hope...
hope that everything
will be okay.
Love makes you feel
connected to everything.
Make you feel light-headed,
you feel like you're floating.
- I love Isabelle, too.
- You're an asshole.
You don't even know her!
- I do.
When she left...
my heart felt
like it was falling.
- That's rejection.
That's not love.
- Then why do I feel
the other things?
I feel hope.
I feel connected to everyone...
to everything.
- I used to feel those things.
You took it all from me.
- I'm sorry.
- You didn't just take Isabelle
away from me.
When you killed me,
you took me away from Isabelle.
She needs me.
- Stop.
Stop doing that with your eyes.
- When you killed me,
you killed her.
- No.
- Yes!
She cries every day.
- No.
No, she doesn't.
- You broke her heart!
- Stop!
- Harry, uh,
where are you?
Please call me
when you get this.
I need to talk to you.
- Hey, Asta.
How you doing?
- Oh, hey.
Um...
I need to leave early.
Is that okay?
- That's fine.
It's slow.
I'll hold down the fort.
- Okay.
Thank you.
- Hey, Asta,
can you help me out?
I need that dead foot.
- Really?
- Yeah.
I found a boot.
I need to see if it's a match.
There might be another murder
in town.
- So you're telling me
eventually
that thing
will look like that one?
Where did you get the boot?
- On the shore next to
Dr. Vanderspeigle's house.
- So what happened to the real
Harry Vanderspeigle?
- I don't know.
- I sort of broke
into Harry's house last night,
and I saw a freezer
full of meat,
and I thought
it was a dead body.
- Another murder is horrible,
but we're gonna get
who did this.
Promise.
Okay?
- She has her earphones in.
She can't hear anything.
- I could scream louder
than her workout songs.
I can get her down here
in two seconds!
- Well, you're not gonna like
what happens to her
when you do that.
You need to tell us
where this alien is,
you little shits.
- Why should we?
- Because it's here
to kill us all.
- If you think I am afraid
to kill everybody,
you are dumb!
I could press this button
at any time.
If you agree with me
and I am right
and you are wrong,
then just sit there dead
and don't say anything.
Okay, then.
We agree.
Goodbye, only human
in the room.
That's impossible.
The energy doesn't affect
my people.
Was he right?
Am I no longer my people?
But that means
if I set off my device,
it will kill me, too.
- Hey.
What are you doing out here?
- Nothing.
Just making up nicknames
for everybody who walks by.
Want to have a seat,
Mr. Short Pants?
- Cool, guess I'll be throwing
these out when I get home.
This is the same bench
that we sat on
that day we skipped
Mrs. Henderson's science class.
- God, you're right.
- That's a long time ago.
- Are you okay?
- I...
remember being so happy
that day.
That was right before
I left for Stratton.
I remember feeling like...
my life was just starting.
- Yeah, you've always
been happy like that.
It's what I love about you.
You know,
it's what everyone loves.
- I'm not happy.
- You're not?
- Are you?
- Well, no.
But I was never really happy
to begin with.
- So...
- Yeah, well, I had a chance
at being happy, but...
it just went away, you know?
I hurt my leg, and that was it.
- Hey...
You can be happy.
Look, I'm gonna play
the nickname game with you,
and your nickname is Miss...
You're Amazing.
- All right.
Well, you're...
bad at that game.
But it's true.
I mean, you've accomplished
so much in your life.
- Shut up.
I-I'm not amazing.
I-I feel like I've done
nothing with my life.
I just...
wanted to--
I just wanted to matter...
make a difference
to somebody, I--
Maybe it's all just bullshit.
- No, you matter.
You're smart and funny.
I-I wish I was like you.
I'm terrified
of pretty much everything.
But sometimes
I look at you, and...
you're so fearless.
It makes me feel,
I don't know, less scared.
You know, you make me happy.
Um...
what are you doing?
- Sorry.
- I'm married, D'arcy.
- Sorry about that.
Yeah.
- Oh, my God.
- I'm so sorry,
I thought that--
- Uh, no, it's okay.
I got to go.
- Right, right.
Got to--got to go.
Shit!
Ahh.
- Please, Max,
you have to trust me.
He is going to kill everyone.
Tell us who he is.
- He's not going
to kill everyone.
- His ship
is a Quimbaya amulet.
- Max, he's going
to kill everyone.
- He won't.
He'll listen to me!
- Why are you in my house?
Sarah, what is going on?
- "Hey, honey."
"Good evening, sweetheart."
"Oh, yeah, day was good.
What's for dinner?
Divorce?
Great."
Lock the door?
That's weird.
- Okay, take
whatever you want.
Please.
- Don't make me use this gun.
- Oh, my God, oh, my God.
- Don't hurt the kids.
- Mike, I need your help.
There's people in my house.
My family is in there.
They have a gun.
- What?
Okay, all right, look.
Do not move.
Don't go inside.
We'll be there in five minutes,
all right?
- No, no, no, we don't have
five minutes.
- Look, do not go inside!
We're on the way.
Deputy!
- Shit!
- Shit!
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Help.
- Let me out of here!
If you touch my kid,
I will kill you!
- Max, who is that?
Why is he wearing
a white coat, hmm?
- Okay, I'll tell you.
- I swear to God!
Get away from my kid!
- Okay, he told us who it is.
We got what we need.
Let's go.
- Hold on, Max!
- Whoa, we're not doing that.
- We're doing whatever
I say we're doing.
- Get down.
- You guys are like Daredevil
and the Black Widow.
- Thank you for saving my life.
- Time to go.
- These things don't usually
have a happy ending.
It could've been a lot worse.
- Yeah, I don't recommend
citizens taking the law
into their own hands,
but that was--
that was some real hero shit
the two of you did in there.
- Well, we're
a pretty good team.
- Yes, we are.
- You both have blood,
like, all over your shoes.
- I'm never washing them.
- Me neither.
- Oh, no.
- That's a lot of tongue.
- You trying to get
all the way in the back?
Y'all nasty.
- Really?
- Y'all got a room
right upstairs.
- Oh, boy.
- How's that article coming?
Need another quote?
- Asta's my mother.
- Yeah.
Sheriff Mike's my father.
You--
Holy shit.
You're the baby.
- I'm not surprised
she didn't tell you.
She's been keeping it a secret.
- Yeah.
Yeah, she has.
- I don't know what to do.
She's my mother,
and I don't even know
how to act in front of her.
Not to mention my father.
- Oh.
Right.
Jimmy.
- It's so messed up.
What am I supposed to say
to someone like that?
I mean, I'm gonna see him.
And I can't talk to Asta.
I can't talk to my parents.
I probably shouldn't even be
talking to you right now,
but I feel
like I am losing my mind
and I need someone
in this town to talk to--
- Hey, hey, hey.
Hey, hey, hey!
You can totally talk to me.
- I can't live here
like this, okay?
I can't do--
- You are not running away
from this.
And you are not alone.
I can help you.
Hey.
Can you get free onion rings?
It's part of the plan.
Yeah, okay.
- You killed
Harry Vanderspeigle.
- No, I didn't.
- Do not lie to me.
- Okay, I killed him,
but he started it.
- Do you have any idea
what you did?
You cannot just murder someone.
That is not how it works here.
- Humans kill people
all the time.
Someone killed
Sam Hodges, so...
- Yeah, and you saw
what that did to me,
to all of us,
and you did the same thing.
No.
Goodbye. This is done.
We are done.
- No, don't say that.
Wait, wait.
- What?
What?
- It'll be okay.
It's like the song.
"Ooh, child, things are going
to get easier."
"Ooh, child"--
Stop.
- Don't touch me!
- I'm sorry.
You just can't leave me.
- Don't tell me
what I can and cannot do.
Wow, you are really
getting a hang
of this human-male bullshit.
- Don't go.
It hurts!
It's--
it's you.
You're the reason
that I feel it--
the joy and the fury
all wrapped up.
- You want fury?
Go back to your planet, Harry.
Whoever you are,
whatever you are,
I never want to see you again.
- But we are friends.
- I am not friends
with people--
I mean... not people.
I don't know what you are.
But I know what you're not.
You are not my friend.
- I thought you were my friend.
I do not like this.
I don't like this place
anymore.
- So, I, uh...
I guess you're my father.
Yeah.
- If you ever touch Asta again,
I'll ------- kill you.
- Feel better?
- Oh, D'arcy,
what are you--
D'arcy, don't!
Ugh!
Son of a bi--
D'arcy!
Oh!
Oh, no, no, no, no, no!
Look out!
Out of the way!
- Oh.
- Yeah.
Yeah, I feel better.
- Yeah, me too.
We--we should go now.
Miss Twelvetrees?
Hey, it's Max Hawthorne.
I need your help.
Harry's here to kill everyone,
and I think I know
where he's going.
- Excuse me.
Are you the town doctor?
- Yes, I am.
Oh, that is a nasty cut--
Town doctor.
That kid was right.
He is the prettiest alien
I've ever seen.
Yeah.
Just be careful, all right?
We don't know what this
monster's capable of.
- Yeah.
- Move, move. Let's go.
- Whoa.
What--what the hell is this?
- Come on.
- I knew you were real.
- Okay.
I-I got you your alien.
So now I'm officially done
with her.
- Aw.
- I'm sorry.
This woman is...
an unhinged psychotic.
- I agree completely.
- Close it up!
- Wait, are you--are you guys
men in black?
- Oh, would you stop it.
They're not called that.
You've watched too many movies.
And if I wanted them involved,
I would've told my superiors.
And then we wouldn't have
an alien, would we?
- Who's we?
- This is bigger than anything
you could imagine.
Too bad you won't be here
to see how it all plays out.
Get rid of him.
- I told you.
I have different orders.
- Okay, um...
Kill ya later.
- See, I don't get it.
I mean, first Sam,
then this roving couple
going around terrorizing
people.
Don't get me wrong,
I like the mayhem.
- Mm-hmm.
- I like it a lot.
I might like it a little
too much, if that's possible.
- It is.
It's quite frightening,
actually.
Don't forget the foot
with the matching boot.
But...
can it all really be
just a coincidence?
- I don't believe
in coincidence.
- Oh, me neither.
- So both the boot
and the foot
were found in the same area
right by
Dr. Vanderspeigle's place.
- Yeah, you mean the boot,
the foot, and the doorknob.
That thing definitely didn't
come from no houseboat,
that's for sure.
Looks like we might have
a new prime suspect.
Let's go visit
Dr. Vanderspeigle
tomorrow morning, see
if he's got anything to add.
- What is that?
Oh!
Oh...my ...d.
Is this a Nespresso?
- It's nothing, man.
I just picked that up
for the office.
It was on sale.
- Yes, yes!
Oh, my God, oh, my God!
You got me
a coffee pod machine!
- Oh, what are you doing?
I got that
for the whole office.
What are you doing?
- Nope.
You got it for me,
and you agree
with my doorknob instincts.
- You got decent
doorknob instincts, all right?
But this whole thing
is for everybody.
It ain't just for you.
- Nope.
- What are you doing?
- Nope.
You got it for me.
- You in the vehicle!
Let me see your hands!
- I have no choice now,
since my device
will destroy me.
I will fly away from here
and drop the device
onto this beautiful planet
to finish the job I started.
- Whoa.
- Go, go, go!
- Double up, double up!
- Harry!
- There's more!
- Freeze!
Hold it right there.
- Oh, no.
I forgot the pizzas.
Maybe I can go back
and get them.
I could take the ship
and pick them up
on my way to space.
I can't because
of this stupid mission.
I am so hungry.
They look like black ants.
Where is your queen?
- Come on.
- Get down.
- Harry!
- Run, Max!
Hide!
- Harry...
I know why you're here.
Don't do it.
Please don't do it.
- I must.
It's why I came here.
- I don't care.
You're not the same.
You've changed
since you came here,
since you killed that man.
I've seen it.
I just saw it now.
You could've left,
but you stayed to help us.
You've changed.
- No.
My mission is to kill everyone.
- If you kill everyone,
you kill me.
- You are right,
I have changed, but--
- There's my friend.
- We are friends?
- Yes.
We are friends.
- So, that means you will come
with me to my planet
and we will kill everyone
on Earth together?
- What?
No.
I-I'm--I'm staying here.
- Then I won't kill everyone.
Okay, good.
- I will miss you, friend.
- I'll miss you, too, friend.
- I should dispose
of my device.
It will kill everyone on Earth
when it detonates
in 80 seconds.
- Oh, my God.
Yes.
Go.
Go!
- Real quick...
I left some pizzas
in my freezer.
You can have them
if you want them.
- Thank you.
Go!
- Everyone has to die
eventually.
What matters are the choices
you make while you're alive.
Killing may make humans
feel strong in the moment,
but what I've begun
to realize is,
true strength comes
from choosing not to kill.
Maybe being truly human
is about choosing to love
instead.
But with that love
comes the pain
that I feel inside me.
I need to go home.
Hopefully the further
I get from them,
the less I will care.
Finally, I will be
at peace again.
Hi.
You're taking me home, right?
- This is some bullshit!
Ugh.
