Resident Alien (2021–…): Season 2, Episode 11 - The Weight - full transcript

Asta tells Dan about the shooting while Harry learns what it takes to be a good friend.

Previously, on
"Resident Alien"...

I killed him.

How do I live with myself?

Nobody else
knew about our meet up.

The men in black
took Dr. Ethan.

I thought
that would make you change.

As soon as they figure out
he's human,

they'll know the alien
is still in Patience.

The alien baby
has not returned.

I need to find it
so I can get

the rest
of Goliath's message.



An alien!

The ball is the only thing

that could've saved your life.

There has to be a mole.

Congratulations,
we're on the same side now.

- Burger.
- Oh, thank you.

What do you have for me
on our mole?

Nothing yet.

Well, you better find him,

because whoever it is
wants that ball

and will happily
kill both of us for it.

You gotta help me.
I shouldn't be in here.

Don't touch me.

We have something
happening here.



I'm not an alien.

The aliens are the ones
who took me.

They know
not to touch the guards.

It's nothing.

Keep looking.

You remember.

You're not supposed
to remember.

You're one of them.

You want to stay alive,

don't forget
you belong to us.

Brown bird's "Bilgewater" plays...

- Hey.
- Hey.

Did you hear about Gerard?

Ugh, yeah.

It's really sad.
He was such a nice man.

He left
this cashmere scarf here

last time he was in.

Okay. Um, we have
his niece's address,

so we can send it to...

No. Absolutely not.

Fine.
I'll cold-neck it.

But it's on you
if I get the flu.

It's coming on.

I may not be in tomorrow.

I would not mind that.

- Did you hear what I said, asta?
- Mm.

I said,
"I would not mind that,"

if she does not come in.

That was funny.

Ah, yup.

Uh, Gerard hundemer
died last night.

The death certificate's
on your desk.

You have to sign it.

He was
riddled with disease,

and his breath smelled
like an open grave,

but I am surprised.

I am not surprised,

because I am the one
who killed him last night.

I did not mind Gerard.

He liked me
and said I could have

his refrigerator milk
after he was dead.

Mm.

I also took
one of his hats.

Mm.

I am going to look
for the alien baby later

if you want to come.

We can get
some of those pretzels

that you like.

No, thanks.

Why is she not
looking at me?

Are you angry
at the pretzels...

Or at me?

I'm fine.

She does not seem fine.

I miss happy, smiley asta.

That one did not live
very long.

Coffee?

Honey, I can't have
caffeine.

Pregnant.

I'll just, uh,
have an herbal tea.

Lucky me.

Hey, I just signed up
for band at school.

Really?

I didn't know you wanted
to play an instrument.

That's great, bud.

Yeah, I'm playing
the drums.

The music store is delivering
the drum set here tomorrow.

You have to call them
to pay for it.

Oh, honey, I don't think so.

Yeah, buddy, we're not
buying you a drum set.

We can't have noise like that
in the house.

- Why not?
- Well, because you are

about to get a little...

I'm about to get
a little what?

You're about to get
a little visit

from cousin frank.

And frank doesn't like
loud noises.

I thought
cousin frank died

in that boating accident
on nantucket.

He did.

But they found him
on the beach,

living on fish and coconuts.

You know, they're calling it
a miracle.

There are coconuts
in nantucket?

That was part of the miracle.

I can't believe
cousin frank's alive!

I'm gonna go write him
a letter.

- Honey?
- Yup.

You know you're not supposed
to tell anyone

about a pregnancy
this early.

I did not know that.

- I think you did.
- Well, it sounds familiar.

I thought it was, uh,
cousin Andrew

who died on the boat.

Cousin Andrew had dinner
with us two months ago.

Well, you have
too many cousins.

I do not know why asta
is not talking to me.

Maybe she is jealous

because I can control
my emotions now.

Ugh, dickhead spiders.

Aah!

Sometimes humans are quiet
when they are upset.

But asta cannot be upset.

I have not even told her
about the evil alien race

that is hiding
here on earth.

I need to find this baby

so I can get the rest
of Goliath's message.

The three pads
my people have on each foot

will make this alien
easy to track...

Unless...

Unless the baby
has taken human form

and for some reason put on
a pair of small shoes.

This is a human hybrid.

It must have
an innate knowledge

of how to fit in
here on earth...

Which means this hybrid baby
must be very intelligent.

This is a flower.

Baby pooping.

No! Please don't go
in your pants again.

I can't stand
the smell in here.

And I've sprayed, like,
all my perfume bottles.

They're... they're done.
They're done, okay?

So can you go outside
behind a tree?

Done pooping.

She was just sitting there
waiting for me.

My god, poor Jay.

Yeah, it was awful.

She came up to me
on the street.

She was so upset,
and she has every right to be.

I missed her birth-day.

I keep messing things up
with Jay over and over again.

I am a horrible person.

Okay, no.
You are not a horrible person.

You are incredible.

You are loving and kind
and thoughtful.

And you were just distracted
because you had to kill a guy

and Bury his body.

Which was really awful.

Whoa, are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Really?

I'm... Not great.

Elliot and I had sex.

Wha...

Oh. Oh, god.
Was it bad?

No.

No, it was... it was really good.

It was...

It's always the quiet ones.

Oh.

I guess it's just like,
here I go again,

dragging another guy
into my mess.

Except this time,

the mess isn't
me sleeping at the 59.

It's hiding dead bodies.

Okay, you're not dragging him
into anything.

He chased you.

I know, but I'm like one
of those condemned buildings

that doesn't have
a sign outside

that says, "unsafe,"

just filled with asbestos.

And, you know, it's not gonna
kill you right away,

but it'll take years
off your life.

That's... this guy.

I'm sorry.

I really thought
you were okay.

It was easier when it was
just my stuff, you know?

And now it's...

Elliot's becoming a thing,
I don't know.

- Yeah.
- I gotta go to the gym.

I'm sorry, d'arce.

Hey, he was a bad guy, right?

- He d-yeah. It.
- Yeah.

Hey, if you see Harry,
tell him he owes me for a pie.

He forgot to pay last night.

You know, contrary
to popular belief, dad,

Harry and I are not
Bert and Ernie.

You should collect
from him yourself.

Sorry I asked.

No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.

I just need space from him.

Being friends with Harry
is like...

It's like raising a child
who lies and tells secrets

and has weird alien powers.

Okay.

Why don't you tell me
what's going on?

You look like you got
the weight of the world

on your shoulders

no, thanks.

Um, I can deal with it.

Next time Harry comes in,

you want me to send him home
without any supper?

No, he's, like, responsible
for half your sales.

You can take his money.

I just don't want him taking
any more of my time.

How you doing, asta?

I'm detective torres,
Jessup pd.

Some of my people found
Sam hodge's medical files

in the back
of our victim's car.

- Oh.
- We were trying to figure out

if there was a connection.

Did you ever see Sam
with the victim?

Have you ever seen
the two of them together?

That seems very similar
to the question I asked.

Do you remember his face
from anywhere?

I... I never saw him
before the autopsy.

Sure about that?

'Cause I'm pretty good
at reading faces,

and I think I saw
a flash of recognition there.

I took
a facial recognition course.

I got a perfect score
even though

I had to take the test
when I had pink eye.

All right, look,
here's the deal.

All these records
are of Sam's patients.

Do you see anything there
that connects them?

These people
are all from town,

but I... I don't know them well.

They barely came to the clinic.

They're all Sam's house calls.

All right, well,
if you do remember anything,

you know
how to get a hold of us.

You got it.

Well, "us" includes me,

if that wasn't clear.

I do not know which human
the alien baby turned into.

I have been looking
at feet all day,

looking for a shoe match,
and have learned nothing,

except that if you search
the Internet

for someone with small feet,

you get so many
naked people emails

that your computer
stops working.

But there is another tool
I can use to find an alien.

And his chicken ass
just walked through the door.

I have a secret.

There is another alien
in Patience.

What? That's crazy.

Yes, yes.

I need you to look for it.

It is disguised as a human
with small feet,

but you will be able to see
its alien face.

I'll do it
if you give me your milkshake.

What kind of...

No aliens.
I'm keeping the milkshake.

No, I need you to help me
search the town.

Looking for an alien seems
like a lot of work for my eyes.

But I'll do it...

Ah.

If you buy me a drum set.

No, that is too expensive.

On "law & order,"
a generous older gentleman

went to jail
just for buying

a young boy a camera
and a chicken sandwich.

What if you pay me
to do chores?

I like this compromise.

He gets money
and I get an alien

and someone to clean
bird shit off my deck.

Okay.

We have a deal?

Deal.

Ugh!

Ugh.

Can't get a decent bagel
in this damn town.

That's the one thing I miss
about D.C., the food.

Hell, last week, I was halfway
through a rocky mountain oyster

before realizing
I was eating a bull nut.

I didn't even know
to be on the lookout for that.

Nobody ever told me,

"someday somebody gonna put
something on your plate

"and you gonna think it's food,

and it's actually gonna be
a bull nut."

Did you want me to get you,
uh, the corn dog

from the kids' menu
at the diner?

No,
I only order that

'cause it comes
with a free coloring book.

I've already done
all the pictures.

Guess what.

This wallet was found
this morning

on a street a few miles
outside of Patience.

Belongs to Vincent grillo.

Isn't that
one of our hit men?

Damn right, it is.

Nobody drops a wallet
from a car either,

so that means
they're probably on foot.

They could still be in town.

Oh, Jesus Christ,
this thing smells

like it was puked
out of an ass factory.

Where exactly
did you find that?

Old mill road
near Ridge view.

Yeah.

We used to go hiking there
in high school.

Sir, that trail system would be

a perfect place
for someone to hide.

Wait a second,
if it's a great place to hide,

ybe that's
where our hit men are.

That's a brilliant idea,
detective.

- Yeah.
- Pure genius.

The human race would be
much more productive

if they made children work.

Even a baby can be hired
to lie on your papers

so they do not blow
off your desk.

Oscar Peterson's "mumbles" plays...

Yes.

I do not feel a thing.

It's on the highest setting.

Yeah, that... that's good.

I like... I like that.

Do these guys ever move?

Not since we found them

in that new Mexico warehouse
last spring.

Still don't know
how Ethan did that to them.

Yeah.

I've been wondering
about that too.

Here, look at this.

He's writing
in his alien language.

No, that's
a crossword puzzle.

He's made a bunch of them.

It's a coping tool
that people in captivity use.

Maybe aliens like
crossword puzzles.

Yeah, maybe.

But this isn't the only thing.

Look, I've been tracking
events and...

I've been tracking
Internet chatter

of some events
in Patience, Colorado,

since we took the doctor.

Unexplained power surge,

blip detected
at the ute reservation

a half hour away,

woman posted a uap video,

octopus stolen
from a Japanese restaurant...

Which probably isn't related
but sure is weird.

Your point?

I don't think
this guy's an alien.

I think the real alien
might still be in Patience.

Max.

Max!

Isn't it cool?

Where did you get this?

The music store.

They delivered it while you
were on the treadmill.

Didn't you hear them come in?

No, I did not.

You should turn
your music down lower.

Loud sounds
are bad for your ears.

Max. Max!

We told you that you could not
have a drum set.

No, you said
you wouldn't pay for it,

so I paid for it myself

with the money I made
from my job.

What job?

Mm.

Excuse me,
did you give my son money?

Yes.
What is the problem?

Were the bills not ironed
well enough?

I will speak to him.

Uh, the problem is,

there is now a drum set
in my living room.

That is only a problem
if you do not like

the pounding of drums.

- I don't.
- Then that's a problem.

- Mm-hmm.
- I gave him money for chores.

What?

Why am I just now
hearing about this?

Asta, did you know about this?

- Hmm?
- Max doing chores for Harry?

- Yes, she knew.
- No, I didn't.

No, she didn't.

I'm sure there's a perfectly
logical explanation,

isn't there, Harry?

The truth is,
he told me that you knew.

He even said
that it was your idea.

- What? He said that?
- Yes.

He called me.

He told me you wanted him
to come work for me

to pay for the drum set
because...

You're poor.

Well, that is not true.

Do not be ashamed
of being poor.

You can sell the drums
and buy food.

We are not poor, okay?

I mean, there's nothing wrong
with being poor.

It's fine to be poor.
It's... well, it's not fine.

There's a whole, you know,
terrible class system

that puts... listen.

Max lied to you
is the point, okay?

I cannot believe he said that.

He even said
that the purple workout shirt

you have
with the zipper on it...

Said it was ugly.

Okay.

Well, next time, could you
please check in with us first?

I mean, we can't even get him
to clean our own house.

Probably because
you don't pay him enough

because you're poor.

You get that
straightened out?

Yeah, I'm just apparently
dealing with a child

who has honesty issues.

Ah, I get that.

Hey, you know,
I'm glad I ran into you.

You remember that whole
"I'm pregnant" thing

- from the party?
- Yeah.

Yeah.
I-I just need to be sure

that it wasn't
a false positive.

Can you give me a blood test?

Yeah, come on.

♪ Baby, see
how I been livin' ♪

♪ Velvet curtains
on the windows to ♪

♪ Keep the bright
and unforgivin' ♪

♪ Light from shinin' through ♪

Good, nice calm upper body.
I like that.

Another great run.

You still got it, coach.

What the hell?

It's the ghost
of d'arcy bloom.

Nice to see you.

I keep missing you
at Thanksgiving.

Susan keeps making
that cranberry pie you love

in case you show up.

I don't like for people
to make a big fuss about me.

- D'arcy bloom!
- In the flesh.

I have a poster of you
in my bedroom.

She's obsessed with you.

She's seen all your videos,

like, a million times
on YouTube.

Dude, shut up.

No, no, no. Do not shut up.
Keep it coming.

Okay, time to head
back up there.

Can we get a photo with you?

Hell yeah, let's do it.

- Come on.
- Okay.

Say "cheese!"

- Nice.
- Thank you!

- You're welcome.
- Thanks so much.

- Thank you.
- Now, get out of here.

Bye.

"Say 'cheese'"?
Such a dad move.

Such a kid move
only texting me,

what, three times a year?

To be fair, that's more
than I text my actual parents.

Yeah.
I know you're busy.

I mean, not really.

Maybe that's the problem.

Who said there was
a problem?

You, when you showed up here
instead of just texting me.

I don't know.

Got a lot going on,
I guess, and...

I don't really know
where to start,

so I just came up here
to clear my head.

You remember
when we first met?

I gave you a whole bunch
of stuff to work on.

It was a disaster.

You got your head
all turned around.

But then we pared it down
to just one thing:

Keep your tips on the snow
run after run, that's right.

And you did!
And then you'd work

on the next thing
until you got that too.

Eventually you had
the fastest zipper line

in the country.

And then I fell.

Everyone falls.

Question is, then what?

You know, the hard pack
tournament's coming up.

No, it's been way too long.

Never too late
for a comeback.

Maybe you just need to find
that one thing to focus on

and then the rest will follow.

Okay, nice.

Nice calm upper body,
but I need you to keep

those knees good and tight,
all right?

Let's try it again.

I got in trouble for being
your Butler, you know.

I shouldn't even be
helping you anymore.

Have Ms. Twelve trees help you.

Asta isn't talking
to me right now.

Oh!

What about that funny girl?

She's walking
on those stick legs.

Nope.

- But you didn't even look.
- Don't need to.

If it's a girl, it's not him.

How do you know
it is a him?

I didn't say "him."

I said "Shepherd's pie."

That is a terrible lie.

They do not even sound alike.

And Shepherd's pie,
that is... it's not a pie.

It should be called
Shepherd's meat vomit.

Fine, I lied.

But I promised sahar
I wouldn't tell.

She's my friend.

Well, what about me?
I am your friend.

You don't treat me
like I'm your friend.

Well, you are not my friend.

I am your friend.

See? There's a difference.

Sahar's my best friend.

Well, if sahar
is your friend,

then you should want
to protect her.

That baby eats meat.

And even though
your best friend

is mostly gristle,
she will still be tasty.

You need to tell me
where she is right now.

Jesus.

You people are crazy.

Don't do anything stupid.

I just want to give you this.

It's alien technology.

I need you to tell me
how your people use this.

Stay back.

This is an alien laser.

Don't move,
or I will blast you.

Shit.

You really are
just a stupid human.

That's a pool ball.

This...

Is alien technology.

Don't let go of it.

♪ Ooh, ooh ♪

♪ Ooh ♪

Oh, what the hell?

♪ Ooh, that's all ♪

♪ We are ♪

I guess it works
for everyone.

How did I live?

You may be worthless,

but this is not.

Hey, Liv.
How you doing?

So I've been looking
at these medical records.

I was thinking of talking

to the families
of the deceased.

You know, maybe they can shed
some light on it.

Yeah, um, that makes sense.

The problem is,

if I pull them
into the station,

they may clam up.

Like, you're a nurse.

They may feel
more comfortable with you.

Maybe we could
talk to them together.

Like, here,
where they feel more safe.

Oh. I don't know.

Do you remember
my aunt Cathy

who passed away
about ten years ago?

Yeah, of course.

You guys were really close,
right?

Yeah.

If something nefarious
led to her death,

I'd want to know.

These people's families
deserve to know.

Maybe this guy had something
to do with Sam's death.

Maybe we can find out
what and why.

Give me those.

Think cletus got
an advantage.

His stubby legs keeps his nose
close to the ground.

May not even need
the dogs.

Way that wallet smelled,

I'd probably be able
to sniff them out myself.

Yeah, we'll find it.

Name of the game
is determination.

You search hard enough
for long enough,

you always find it.

Seems like you were born
for this work.

Makes me wonder
how a city cop ended up

in the Colorado woods.

What, you sniffing down
a new trail now, detective?

Better be careful.

You're not the only one
who's determined.

Yeah, I'm a long way
from home.

Being in these woods
of Patience is a far cry

from chasing diamond thieves
off of Bridges.

Whoa, whoa.

No way, that was you?

I read about that,
cop jumps in the water,

recovers millions in diamonds.

You're the D.C. Merman?

Well, it was mer-Mike
through the department, yeah.

But I snatched the diamonds
right off him mid-swim.

Oh! He's got a scent.

You got something, boy?
You got something?

Where you going?

Oh, yeah, there he go.
Go on, boy.

Can you tell us why Sam
was treating your mother?

Diabetes, asthma,
herniated disk,

and she had this weird
nerve thing.

It made her hand
look like this...

I remember your dad.

He had that panel Van
with the painting on the side.

Neptune, god of the sea.

He used to take us fishing
every weekend

on hawthorne creek.

Uncle Rick
was in a ton of pain.

It was colon cancer,

so they had to take out
all his plumbing.

By the end,
he was just skin and bones.

Not that it looks bad on you.

You're skin and bones
and you're cute.

And cancer, course.
Pancreatic.

Uncle Rick
used to take us to the creek

and we'd catch frogs.

And we'd race 'em,
but we'd never eat them.

Only sometimes.

And she had this rash,
wouldn't go away.

Made her hand
look like a pizza.

So this... But a pizza.

He just... he never got
to meet Kevin, you know,

before he died.

And he really loved animals.

Not that you're an animal.

No, no.
You're a baby.

You're a human skin baby.

Screw cancer, you know?

But you're
not gonna get cancer, are you?

No, because we put lotion
on your body.

Gotta protect your little
baby pinky skin.

Oh, that feels so good.

Oh, that feels so good
for your belly.

Do you recognize this man?

- No.
- Nope.

Kevin!
This is for your health.

Kevin.

Did you notice
they each mentioned

spending time
at hawthorne creek?

Yeah.

And everyone had a rash

on either their hand or feet.

Look, cancer, kidneys,
nerve issue, rash.

Heavy metal poisoning
could do that.

Poison in the water
at hawthorne creek.

Yeah.

And someone was
covering it up.

How did he get in here?

There you are,

you sneaky little ninja boy.

Come on, we gotta get
your coat on.

Come here, get it on.

♪ 'Cause you're just
a little skin baby ♪

I mean, how do you say no

to this little
baby angel face?

Ugh, you are so heavy.

See you guys.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Where is this stupid
hideout of yours?

We have been on this path
for 20 minutes.

The rv is deep in the forest.

Rv, that stands
for recreational vehicle

that you drive.

Why did you not tell me?
I own a truck.

It's a fun walk.

See? The police like it too.

What are they doing here?

Looks like they're heading
to the rv.

I thought rv stood
for "real big Van."

Your skull is very hollow.

Good.
Helps me run faster.

We need to keep them
from finding the alien baby.

I will distract the wolves
with a special call

that confuses the brains
of intelligent animals.

Also stupid humans.
You should cover your ears.

Oh.

- Where's he going?
- What are they doing?

Maybe the wind shifted.

All right, come on, cletus.

Whoa.

Cool.

I didn't know
you could control animals.

Yes, it is more than cool.

It is just another example

that my people
are far more advanced than...

What was that?

A... Bird
that was, uh,

confused by my call.

Bird attack!

Wait!
Bird attack!

Son of a bitch!

Ugh, take the little one!

Now, this
is a female pinecone.

Yes, there's a difference.

That baby belongs to me.

The only surprise is,

I'm somehow
disappointed in you.

- I should have expected less.
- I'm sorry

I thought it was, like, gonna
eat your face off or something.

Why is he dressed
like a sad bear?

His diaper doesn't fit
in pants.

Come to me.

Baby,
remember what I told you.

Don't go anywhere
with strange men.

Baby.

No!

Baby, come back, please.

Remember what I taught you.

Stay with me.

See?
He feels safe with me.

He is safer with me.

Do not talk to me like that.

I will send you
to the ice wind desert

for two weeks with no food.

The cold will creep
upon your body

to steal your life.

Resources are scarce.

The only thing to drink will be

the blood of your siblings
that you have killed

to maintain dominance.

Doesn't sound safe.

Mm.

Run, baby!

And remember, look both ways
when crossing the street.

It's someone

that you can share
the biggest secrets with.

I said I'm sorry, okay?

See what you did?

Now the baby's gone
and sahar doesn't like me.

This is
why you have no friends.

I do too.

Asta is my friend.

No, she's not.
She won't even talk to you.

Mm.

And now sahar won't talk to me.

Yes, I will.

You made a mistake,

but friends also forgive.

Plus, it's against my religion
to hold a grudge.

Come inside.

Harry can stay out here
with all his friends.

I am going to find the baby
and teach it

to poop on your doorstep.

Are they right?

Is this why asta
won't talk to me?

Because I'm a bad friend?

You can go now, bad alien.

You are the one
stealing babies.

Plenty of evidence to suggest

that there's hazardous water
at hawthorne creek

and some kind of cover-up
happening.

Now we just have to figure out
how corrington was involved.

Using small-town connections
to dig up information,

just friends gossiping
with friends.

Or, "good police work,
deputy."

You're right.
Good police work, deputy.

Thanks.

Well, you did better
than we did.

Old cletus here,
he struck out.

No offense there, boy.

Although he did do
8,821 steps today.

I got him a fit bit
for his birthday

and I put it in his collar.

Although the real number
is double that

'cause, you know,
he got four legs.

Although you gotta subtract,
like, 200

'cause his little nub tail,

that helps keep him balanced,
right?

And I don't want
to give him credit for that.

Dog fitness
has come a long way.

Oh, yeah.

Anyways, good day today,
detective.

Guess we can talk about that

hawthorne creek situation
tomorrow.

Actually, um,
I'm free to talk now.

We could grab a bite
if you want?

- I'm starving.
- I could go for some food.

But I'm buying.

It's the least I can do
after you shared your water

with cletus on the trail today.

I hate seeing that little man
panting like that.

Couldn't help but notice
the big man was panting

- a little bit too.
- That's just how I hydrate.

See, I got the ability
to pull moisture

directly out of the air
into my mouth.

Oh, yeah?

Is that one
of mer-Mike's superpowers?

One of mer-Mike's
many superpowers, not just one.

I got a whole bunch of them.

Cletus.

I've been like a super...

I'm like the guy
that they come to sometimes

to find new superpowers.

Your dad was flirting.

Dad, can I talk to you
for a second?

In a minute, sweetie,
I'm in the middle of a...

Everybody out!

Seems like you were
protecting Harry.

You saved his life.

I know.

This guy is just responsible
for Sam's death

and somehow involved
in the deaths

of some other people in town.

He's obviously a bad guy,

but I feel horrible.

So horrible,
I can't function, dad.

I mean, how... how am I supposed
to get through this?

You know, I don't talk much
about the war, but...

We all left a piece
of ourselves over there.

I killed people.

I'm not proud of it,
but I had to.

That's what I was trained for.

And they trained us to do it
over and over and over again

without feeling anything.

You took someone's life.

Doesn't matter
if doing it saved the lives

of 100 people.

It's supposed to feel bad.

It means you have compassion
and empathy.

You still have your soul.

Of course not.

Hey.

- Hey.

I, uh... I got your message.

Is, um, everything okay?

We need to talk
about something.

I took a blood test today.

- Oh, the pregnancy.
- Mm-hmm.

Wow, yeah, um,
can you tell the sex yet?

I mean, I'm fine with anything.

Maybe a girl?

Probably would smell
better than Max.

Well, it's... it's not that.

I'm not pregnant.

What?

Uh, are you sure?

I'm sure.
I'm so sorry, honey.

I know how much you wanted
to have another baby.

I just want to be here for you.

- Yeah.
- 'cause I know it's a loss.

- It's...
- Mm.

- It's sad.
- Mm-hmm.

Pitcher of margaritas.

I know you said
you only wanted one,

but you also said
you're celebrating, so...

Oh, uh, sad people
don't usually celebrate.

Well, I'm sad for you.

But you're also happy.

No. No, I think
it just seemed happy in...

Oh, yeah...
In comparison.

You know,
because you are so sad

about not having a baby.

Wouldn't count on it.

But of course, you know,
I want a baby.

Uh, but, you know,
not having to wake up

at 3:00 in the morning,
it's not too bad.

No, of course, you know,
I want a baby too.

It's just not
the end of the world

not to have to give up Sushi
for nine months.

Sushi, yeah.

I'm kind of happy.

Me too.

Oh, my god.

Right?

Thank god.

- A toast...
- Yes.

- To not having kids.
- Well, we have one.

Eh, let's pretend.

The hard pack tournament?

My god, we used to watch that
on TV.

Can you do it?

I don't know.
It's a lot.

I have to get back in shape.
Like, really in shape.

- No more drinking.
- Mm.

Unless, of course,
you want to toast me

for my bravery
in returning to skiing.

- No, we don't have...
- To my comeback.

Oh.

I've been looking
for you everywhere.

I need to talk to you.

I do not need to talk to you.

Your mom needs
to talk to me.

God.

I know you work with him
and everything,

but what do you even
talk about?

Nothing,

except the fate
of the entire world.

Okay, Harry, what's going on?

I need to tell you something,

and you're not
going to like it.

Let me guess,
you sideswiped my car again?

That would be funny.
I wish.

The reason my people
are not coming here

is because another alien race
is already here on earth.

I do not know who they are
or what they are doing here.

It's dangerous.

How do you know this?

It was part of Goliath's
alien baby message

the night of the party.

Why didn't you tell me then?

Because I'm a bad friend.

Oh.

Oh, Harry.

But I want to be
a good friend.

I feel better now.
Ah.

- We're in danger.
- Okay.

Well, that is not good news,
but I'm used to it.

So thank you
for sharing that with me.

I know that was hard for you.

- Mm.
- Yeah.

Friends tell each other
the truth.

They trust each other.

Yes, they do.

We'll deal with it together.

Okay?

Humans have discovered
there is strength in numbers.

Sam Burchfield's
"Hold my hand"plays...

But maybe the strongest thing
in their life

is the person
they are closest to.

Everybody needs a friend,

especially when they are
in danger.

a shot of Jeremiah weed?

Well, if you want
