Search Party (2016–…): Season 5, Episode 3 - Episode #5.3 - full transcript

I feel like I'm in the dark,
like with no light in sight.

Life is not turning out
the way it was promised.

[SIGHS] I just feel like
the whole world is against me.

And like,
everything that I try to do

just gets like chomped, chewed

and like pooped out
right before my eyes.

And here's the question
I always ask you,

whose fault
do you think that is?

And here's the answer
I always give you

not mine.

You know, I feel like
I've stopped trusting the world



to the point that I don't
even know what's true anymore.

And I can't help
but feeling like

there's big forces
against me at play

and I'm being sabotaged.

Otherwise it would mean
that things are my fault,

and that just can't be true!
Okay.

That's enough for you.
Leave your cash in the basket.

Don't let my next client
see you on the way out.

Hi. Hot dog, no bun,
just relish, cup style.

What's cup style?

In a cup.

Quick, I just had therapy.

[THROUGH A MEGAPHONE]
An entire airplane

carrying a major
national football team



disappears
on a domestic flight

on the same day
that Jay Harry Swanson

becomes
the new director of the CIA.

And not a single email is sent
about this change of hands.

You ever got a new boss
without even a heads up?

I didn't think so.

Makes you wanna clench
your asshole so tight

it ruptures like hell.

[SOFTLY] Crazy.
These people know your name.

They know how you like
to scratch your legs.

They even know the rolodex
of attractive people

you keep in your head

when you go
to pleasure yourself.

God...
[LAUGHS] what is with her?

You're just
sandwiches to them.

That's right.

I'm talking to you and you
and you and you and you.

I can tell you
don't trust the world,

and you know
everyone's against you,

mocking your dumb as shit life.

[HUFFS, SNICKERS]
Well, there's a reason why

you feel
freaky deaky all the time.

It's because
you're being hunted.

Well, welcome

say I'm sorry.

Okay.

Hmm.

Is this really the kind of
work you wanna be doing?

Yeah, well, it's kinda

so, yeah, it is.

Mm.

I know about you and Portia.

And if she makes you happy,

then I think that's great,
because I want you to be happy.

Well, you know, she doesn't
make me kill people, so...

I know I deserve that,

But I also know how much
we care about each other.

I love you and you love me.

And that's why
you're angry still,

because still have
feelings for me.

They're absolutely fucking.
How do you know that?

I know on some level

Hi, you two.
BOTH: Hi.

Wow, right?

Oh, isn't this exciting?
It's so amazing.

I love your glasses.

You like my outfit?
Yeah. Amazing.

Hi. How are you?
Hey.

I'm so happy you guys

Welcome to my, uh, my playland.

Do you like it?
You feeling somewhat inspired?

Oh my God.
Yes.

It's actually him.
It's actually him.

Okay. Come, follow me.

This way,
it's right up the stairs.

You are a genius.
Can I tell you that?

I'm sure, but so while
I got you here,

I gotta get your perspective
on something top secret

that I'm working on.

In fact, I wanna get it
from all of you.

Hmm.
What is it?

It is groundbreaking.

Um... literally.

Because I'm digging a hole...

[SOFTLY]
to the center of the earth,

and I'm taking you there.

What?
Uhhuh, uhhuh!

Uhhuh!
Come on!

Uhhuh, uhhuh!

Hello.

Thank you.
Thank you.

Thank you.
[CHUCKLING]

Yeah, she's too rough with me.

Very good.
Thank you, everybody.

Thank you so much.
Cool.

So this is the elevator
that takes us to

like the floor with pictures
of the earth's core right?

Or likewhere where

like, whwhere exactly is it
that we're going?

No, no, we're going
to the center of the earth,

like I said.

Really?
Yep.

I'll try anything once.
Good.

I'm confused. Wouldn't we
need like training for that?

Training? What kind of
training would that entail?

I'm sorry, this is too tight.
I can't get out of it,

and I really don't like things
touching my necklace bones.

So yeah, I just don't think
I wanna do this.

That makes sense,
'cause this is very unnatural.

Here,
chew on this, if you will.

Take one, pass one down.
Okay.

This is gonna raise
your blood pressure

and keep you
from getting dizzy.

But don't swallow it.

It takes seven years
for gum to digest.

Ooh!

We're sealed in now.

Initiating in three,
two, one.

[CLANKING]
Oh God. Ohh.

Oh my God.

How many, um, feet
are we going?

3,558 miles,

which I know is disappointing,

but we're not yet able
to get to

that final 400 miles of core
core.

Uh, we would die so
How long is this gonna take?

Oh, this is gonna take
about nine hours.

Oh, oh, I should have
told you to pee.

Well, you're gonna pee anyway,
so...

No!
No, no, no. I can't, I can't.

I can't, I can't.
I mean, this is insane.

I have to get off
of the elevator.

It's okay.
Just keep chewing.

Chew, chew, chew,
chewing the gum. It's good.

Hey, you know
how lucky you are?

So few people have ever
gotten a chance to do this,

and trust me,
you're gonna be so amazed

at some of the insane
shitut

that you're about to see.

It's gonna get real cool, guys.

Oh my God, no!

Hey, Aspen, sweetie,

I'm gonna go for a run.

You're okay to be here
on your own, right?

All right.
Have a wonderful run, Fathers.

Oh, it's just me.
Your other father

didn't come home last night.

He is working on hurting me.

Hey Kikei, do you mind
keeping an eye on my child

while I'm out?
He's a hoot.

Okay, Mr. Marc. I'm not
putting in chlorine this week,

just lavender,
because the chlorine,

it gets in the skin
and it's really bad.

Oh, smart.

Love the puka shells
by the way.

Thank you, Mr. Marc.

Okay. Bye, sweetie.

Mr. Quinn!

You stop this elevator

Sorry, I can't do that.

Two floors down

Centrifugal force,

a top notch graphics team,

I do that for every

I had to go to the hospital
once

from doing it too many times.

It wasn't real?
[CRYING]

It wasn't real?!

It feels horrible, right?

Hey, we're gonna send you
a zip file with pictures

of all of you in midpanic.

It was so funny.

You're a sick fuck.

But why are you in there?

Excuse me.

I didn't see you there,
little guy.

May I have an ice cream
please?

Oh, II'm afraid I do not
have that authority.

II wouldn't like it

if you couldn't have dairy
and got a seizure.

Please.
The truck is right outside.

The song makes me crave it

and it would be a nice and
enjoyable relief from the heat.

I don't want your dads

All the other children

Hey, Portia Davenport,

you're not eating meat
right now, right?

I'm not.
How did you know that?

Well, you know, I invented
textingl know everything.

I already know what everybody
wants to eat,

and here it is.

Oh my God.
My favorite fish food.

[BOTH LAUGHING]
What did you get?

Burger.
Look at that. Look at that.

So Tunnel, may I ask, um...

how did you change
your mind about me?

You and I have a lot
in common, I think.

You know, I mean,
you're trying to do something

that nobody's ever done before,

and it's something
that's so radical

that it sounds unbelievable.

I thought that
it was ludicrous,

but then I came to understand
that I was being shortsighted.

After all, I've been called
all the same nasty names

that you've been called

insane, sociopathic, stupid

but people confuse ambition

for psychopathy.

So maybe you're not crazy.

You're just, uh, inspired?

I like to think so.
Yes.

Hey, do you know
why I put you in that elevator?

ALL TOGETHER: No.
Before today, did you believe

it was possible to go
to the center of the earth?

No.
No.

But today you believed
it didn't you?

I actually, I had a suspicion
that it wasn't real.

All right. If you say so.
But I do believe

that with my special effects
and da da da,

finally you came around
to all believing

that it was true, right?

Mmhmm.
True.

But we didn't actually
go to the center of the earth.

So... what did you accomplish?

Well, Dory, maybe now
one day we can go

to the center of the earth
because we're one step closer

to believing
that it's possible.

And to me,

you're the embodiment
of possibility and people,

they sure want what you have,
I'll tell you that.

And what do you think I have?

The belief that you can
lead us to a future

where we're no longer
tyrannized by our minds.

All beings flowing together,

absolutely in rhythm

with the divine song
of the universe.

No more pain.

And you're telling us

that we could have that
in our lifetimes.

I mean... wow!

[OPERATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

What iswhat?

[POLICE RADIO CHATTER]

God, is thatis that Kikei?
It is.

Are you a resident here?
I am.

What happened, Officer?
Drowned.

But it's only 4 feet
of water.

I've seen it before
with pool boys.

They see a dead bee
and fixate on it.

Next thing you know, they fall
head first against the bottom.

Let this be a lesson to you,
huh? Let the bees float.

I will, Officer.

Well, this is just awful.
I employed him.

Oh, Aspen!

Thank you.

Aspen, sweetie.
Do not look, okay? Don't look.

I awoke from a slumber to see
him floating like a Lily pad.

Oh God.
I called the police,

but it was too late.

His lungs were filled
with the water.

Does that mean he's... dead?

He's with Jesus Christ
and his angels now. Yes.

May I have an ice cream
because of what I've seen?

Oh, of course.

Of course
you can have an ice cream.

You have been through so much.
Ohh!

You're such a good boy.
[LAUGHS]

What exactly
are you proposing?

Well, Drew Gardner,
what I'm proposing

is that we find a way
to turn Dory's ideas

into something
you can hold on to,

something that could change
the course of human history.

Something
that's so revolutionary

that people 500 years from now
are gonna point back

to this moment right now
and say, "They did... that."

[LAUGHTER]
Okay.

And there could be
lunch boxes and phone cases

and a whole line of bedding.
And.

So you want to
sell enlightenment?

I wanna invent it, uh,
and produce it

and sell it.
I would love to

take something
that would like fix me.

Yes, but who wants to
do the work?

All that talking and teaching

and spending 40 days
and nights in the jungle.

Nobody wants that.

They want
a quick and easy solution.

They want a pill.

What'd you say?

They want a pill.

That's what it should be.
[SNAPS]

I feel like I'm gonna cry
and I don't even know why.

Yeah, but it's a concept.

You can't swallow a concept.

It's just kind of nutty.

I mean,
does no one else see this?

I think maybe
you can't see it

because, my darling, you're
kind of not feeling involved.

But I sure want you to be
involved, 'cause what a story.

Don't you think it would be
a great story, you know,

friends who were famously
just torn asunder

by their differences

and now reunited
by enlightenment

and the fight
for the future of humanity.

What do you think of that?

Plus, you know,
you would be set for life.

I, for one,
would love to be involved.

I would love to be involved.

Mmhmm. And Dory would you
need to think it over?

Where's your head at?

With all due respect,
Tunnel...

[CHUCKLES]

I think the one who needs
to think it over more is you.

Why is that?

Because if we do this
and it actually works

and you can really feel
what I feel,

then you'll want to give up...

[LAUGHS] all of this.

This is not something
to take lightly.

I don't believe in business,

and even though
your ideas are big,

I still very much see you
as a businessman.

So... I just don't know
if I can trust you yet.

That's fine. Take your time.

Uh...

you know where to find me.

I'll be right, uh, right here
at the center of the earth.

Would you ever wanna
be enlightened?

Like if it came in the form
of a pill

and I was in charge of it

and I was also
extremely celebrated for that.

Oh my God.

It's Kikei's puka shells.

Why would Aspen have those?
I don't know.

Unless.

Unless what?

You don't think Aspen...

Marc!

No!

Yeah. Right, no.
