Room 104 (2017–…): Season 4, Episode 10 - The Night Babby Died - full transcript
Aah!
Hi, Abby.
Bruce.
You scared me.
Are you ready to go?
There's a pretty well-rated
Chinese restaurant...
No.
What are you still
doing outside? Come in!
I thought we were
going out to dinner?
I don't want
to go out to dinner.
I... have a better idea.
I don't understand.
Uh, wait.
(synthesized electronic,
Okay.
It's that game
we used to play.
I get it.
That's all you have to say?
"That game"?
It's Crowning Glory II!
You're-You're
just still in shock.
Just, here. Watch.
Abby...
this is our game.
I know.
We used to play it a lot...
No.
Like the exact game.
I... I found it when I was
cleaning out my mom's house.
Don't you remember?
Babby... Bruce plus Abby. Babby.
Our character
that we created.
You did the puzzles,
and I-I fought the bosses.
Yeah, I remember.
We really liked
playing this game.
Liked?! We were obsessed!
We played this game
every single night
that summer.
Until...
Until the night Babby died.
Look...
I drove straight here
from the conference
to come pick you up
and get dinner.
I've gotta prep
for my presentation...
Okay, well,
if you don't wanna be here,
you know, just go. I don't care.
Hey. Bruce, just... relax.
I...
I'm sorry. I'm just...
stressed and overworked.
Yeah. Of course you are.
Bruce, respectfully,
we don't really
know each other anymore.
We haven't seen each other
since we were kids.
I know you.
We were best friends.
And I...
I...
And I just want to save Babby...
from perma-death.
Now see,
in Crowning Glory II
when your hero dies,
they're dead forever.
No extra lives.
No... no potion.
Perma-death.
Yeah. I remember
what perma-death is.
That's what
happened to Babby.
Yeah!
Yes.
But, but what if I told you...
that Babby's still in there?
In the game.
That I found a way
to bring Babby back.
Babby's bones,
they're still in there,
in the Hydra's lair,
right where she was killed.
Now, I read online that,
that if we can take those bones
to the temple in Castle Town
with an offering of a thousand
gold pieces...
the monks can bring Babby back.
They can resurrect Babby.
So... you just
need to go get the bones
and take them to some monks?
Yes! It's easy!
It's easy.
We just gotta
beat the first quest,
and do the second quest,
then the third quest,
and kill the Hydra,
and then take the bones
to the monks.
I've already created
a new character for us.
Abbuce!
Abbuce! Get it?
A-B-B-U-C-E.
Abby and Bruce!
Bruce...
I'm sorry,
but I just don't think
I can do this tonight.
I drove all this way.
I just...
Abby, do you
remember the rule?
What rule?
That if either one of us
ever needed to fart when
we we're on the phone,
we had to put the phone
up to our butt and fart
into the phone.
Yes.
It was my idea.
It was a good idea.
You know every time I need
to fart when I'm on the phone
now, I still think of you.
I'll like...
be on the phone giving a patient
their blood test results
and have this instinct to put
the phone up to my butt.
I never did that
with anybody else.
Why did you think
of that right now?
I farted
under the blanket.
Oh!
Well, thanks for sharing!
No! God!
Aah, dude.
I was really sorry
to hear about your mom.
(video game beeping,
It's so weird to find out
someone died on Facebook.
Really would have liked
to have come to the funeral.
Your dad come?
How's he?
After the service,
he was like...
"When I saw you talking
to the funeral director,
"being so respectful
and dressed so smart,
"I felt so proud of you.
"Like you're
a real grown-up now.
"Maybe I was wrong about you."
"Maybe I was wrong
about you"?
Yeah.
Wow.
Huh. He was always...
A dick.
I was gonna say a little
rough around the edges.
Wait. No, push
the crown to the left.
No, no, no, the left.
The left!
Shit.
Give me that.
I told you I suck
at the puzzles.
Ah!
Yeah!
Yeah, son!
A-whoop, a-whoop, a-whoop!
Time for the Minotaur, right?
Oh, right.
Oh. Oh, oh, oh!
Yeah!
Get... Yes, yes, yes,
yes, yes, yes!
Yes!
Yeah!
Woosh!
Ah!
Yes!
Oh. Yes!
No.
Oh shit. Yeah. Yeah.
Uh, ah... boom!
Oh...
So, how are
things with you?
Fine.
So you treat kids
with cancer? Huh...
Sounds hard.
Yeah, it is.
Must be like...
just crying all the time
or whatever, huh?
No. Not really.
You get kind of...
You get used to some things.
Maybe too used to them.
So... do you have girlfriend?
Sorta.
Interesting.
Tell me more.
Can we just...
focus on the game.
I got this.
Come on. Give me dirt.
I dunno. I mean, she's...
like 41,
and it's weird, like...
They call it a geriatric
pregnancy or whatever...
Whoa! She's pregnant?
Yeah. Did I...
Did I not say that?
Uh, no.
Wow.
Is it yours?
Fuck!
Aah, dude,
we gotta focus here!
Sorry!
Don't yell at me.
Yeah, well, don't mess it up!
I'm doing my best.
No, you're not.
You're being all distracted
and asking me all these
dumb questions and shit!
You think you can do this
all loosey-goosey,
but you can't!
Look,
I'm trying to be nice here
and play your stupid game
with you, but...
Stupid?!
I have an actual life, so...
if you're gonna be a dick,
I'm just gonna leave.
Great! Fine!
Then just, just
ruin it all, again!
It's your fault, Abby!
It's always your fucking,
fucking, fucking fault!
What? What's my fault?
Oh, come on. Really?
Bruce, what the fuck
are you talking about?
You played that night
without me.
You thought that you could beat
the Hydra, but you couldn't.
And then Babby died.
You killed Babby!
No!
You were the one who fought
the Hydra by yourself.
And you died on purpose!
What?
I would never do that!
Why-why would you even think
something like that?!
I just assumed
you were mad at me
because of what
happened that night.
Oh, God.
Bruce, come on.
I'm not stupid.
Don't play games.
What the fuck is this?!
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Are you serious?
Bruce.
I guess.
That was the night
your dad moved out.
Yeah, I know.
Why would I be mad
at you about that?
Because of my mom.
Your mom found out
that night about them.
Yeah.
Your mom and my dad?
I'm sorry.
I just assumed you knew.
When did you find out
about this?
I knew.
When?
I don't know.
The whole time?
She was a single mom.
I knew everything.
My dad was fucking the maid?
She was more than that to you
and you know it.
Did you like...
Did you like see him
a lot after that?
I sure didn't.
Did you?!
Not really.
But he helped me
with med school.
Oh, so he stayed
in touch with you?
You always were the smart one.
Bruce?
Bruce?
I'm sorry.
Let's talk about it.
No, I got it.
You're the kid
my dad really wanted.
Got it.
It's not like we had some
magical, special relationship
or anything.
Yeah, whatever.
Whatever.
I thought you knew.
I thought that's why
you stopped talking to me.
Bruce,
can we just go back?
I was having a good time,
and I...
I don't have that
a lot anymore.
My life is just...
It's really intense.
It's not...
It's not... fun.
Most of the time,
I just feel... numb.
All right.
Fine.
Guess I'll just have to save.
Babby by myself.
Okay!
Made it through
the Hydra's labyrinth!
I am at the gate
to the Hydra's lair!
Gonna go through!
Here I go!
Gonna do it now...
by myself.
Ah.
Oh, go, go, go,
go, go, go, go!
Yes!
Oh! Hah!
Wow.
That was...
easier than I thought
it would be.
Look.
That's Babby, right?
It is!
Oh...
Yeah.
Yes.
Yes!
Yes.
Ash?
What do you mean ash?
Wait.
It didn't work?
I didn't know that was possible.
Abby, what's wrong?
I, I...
No...
It's Babby, I'm...
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry!
It's... it's okay.
We tried. That...
That's all I wanted.
Life comes and goes...
but in the hearts
of the living...
those that pass live on.
Wow, Bruce.
That was beautiful.
Yes.
Yes.
We should say something.
Babby was a hero,
and I always thought
that was really cool.
Yeah...
Babby...
fought all the bosses,
even though
it was dangerous.
Babby was awesome.
Even when she spilled.
Ecto Cooler
on my mom's fancy white couch
and I got punished for it.
Babby made me laugh.
And I miss that.
Mm!
And I wish we could go back.
