You sold us a defective kid.

He's creepy,
and I don't like it,

and we are returning him.

We do not do returns.

Well, you're gonna have to,

'cause he scares
the shit out of us.

When you signed
our agreement,

you consented
to our no-fuss policy.

Well, we're going to be
very vocal about this.

We're going to ruin
your life, sir.

Be my guest.

And the second you do so,
we'll let the whole world know



that you illegally
trafficked a child

from our offshore facility
to New York City.

We did no such thing!

We show you the child,

you're responsible
for the travel.

That makes you liable.

You disgust me.

I am going to slander
your name at every dinner party

I attend for the next
three to five years.

Now, fuck off.
Come on, Marc.

What are we gonna do?
Can your moms take him?

I don't want him
to kill my moms.

Mr. Goss, I have a thought.

Could I have a word in private
with you, please?

My wife's family
just moved in with me,

and they're hideous people.

Okay.
I can't live with them,

not without a change.

I'm aware of your affiliation

with Mr. Tunnel Quinn
and his Lyte Project.

When I checked my Tunnel Box
and it was empty,

mm, I wept.

Sorry, so what
are you saying?

I want my hands
on those pills, Mr. Goss,

to give to her family.

I want them
to become tolerable people.

I propose we negotiate a trade

between one person
who hates this family

and another person
who hates his family.

But the formula
isn't gonna be ready

for a long time, years, even.

No, I can't wait that long,
not with their habits.

Just bring me whatever you got
at whatever stage it's at,

and hopefully that'll shake
something up inside them.

I honestly cannot go behind
my best friend's back

like that,
at least not in a way

that could ever get back
to her.

Hey, babe, the babysitter
says she can't breathe.

It's a deal.

I guess so.

And you're sure you don't
want a hand with all that?

No, I'm good,
I'm good, I'm good.

And you don't mind at all,

having to do
all this ground work?

It is an honor and
a privilege to serve the cause.

Picking up the dry cleaning
is an honor?

Yes, Drew,
I'm happy to do it.

Because if I don't do it,
then someone's not gonna

do it right,
and I'd rather do it right,

because if I do it,
I'll do it right.

Totally, yeah.

Hey, so how are things going

with that guy
you've been seeing?

Aw!

Really sweet
of you to ask.

Things are, you know,
progressing in their own way.

Kind of feel like
I might actually be in love.

Oh, my gosh.

I think they could
be the one.

Aw, congrats, Portia.

That's awesome.
Thanks. I'm so happy.

How are things going with you
and your new "relaysh"?

Oh, I'm just trying to see
where this goes

and not put any pressure on it

'cause I've actually done
a bad job of that in the past.

Mm-hmm.

And I also have a lot
of trust issues, so yeah.

I'm confused.

When do you find the time
to see this person?

'Cause I feel like
I'm with you all the time.

Right, yeah.

Well, I could say the same
to you.

I guess we just find time.

What?
Isn't that Dory and those guys?

Oh, my God.
Yeah, looks like it.

This is not on the schedule.

Right, yeah,
not on the schedule.

And then they
get back together.

Yeah.
Yeah.

And then they get, like,

million-dollar presents
for each other.

Hi!
Oh, my gosh. Hi!

Oh, my gosh.
This is so great.

Why don't you guys join us?
We just ordered.

Yay, good. Perfect.

I'm so hungry
from running around town

trying to keep
the business afloat.

Come join us for brunch,
you guys.

I know what brunch is;
I've been having brunch

with Dory
for a really long time.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah.

I'll sit down here.
Yeah.

So, Dory, are you looking
for a bloke these days?

'Cause I'm quite close
with the son

of the sultan of Fatima,
and he has a crush on you.

Oh, my God, that would
be so perfect, really.

Wow. I mean, I like that.

He obviously
has very good taste.

Can I show him to you?
He's quite lush.

Full disclosure, we did snog
back in, like, 2012.

I just want to be up front
about that, but... look.

Oh, wow.
Oh, he's very handsome.

Can I see?
Oh, my God. He's cute.

Come on, Dory.
You got to do this, Dory.

You have to.
Yes, that's it.

That's the one.
Wait, does he have a mane?

Oh, my God. I saw a mane.

It's because
he has a lion's aura.

That's a king energy.
The king wants love.

But he's royalty.

Why would he
be interested in me?

No, this guy's
a loser, this guy.

And small, 'cause, I mean,
he's, what... this guy's 6'.

I mean, I'm 6'5";
I would be so afraid

that I would step on him
and squish him.

They're just jealous.
He's so cute, Dor.

Yeah!
Dor?

Thank you so much
for squeezing me in today.

Of course.
It's a very busy time.

A lot of witness
protection happening,

a lot of masquerade balls,
for some reason.

So is this for sex?

No, no. It's for espionage.
Ooh, lovely.

And are we inventing,
or do we have a look in mind?

I need you to make me
look like...

this man.
Okay. Let's see here.

Oh, no.
This man?

Wouldn't you want
to be someone hot?

I know, I know.

Unfortunately I had to get it
from a community shower

for scientists
at Tunnel Industries,

so that is the hottest person
I could steal from.

Okay.

We're gonna need
a lot of glue.

A lot.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, so hope you have a week
to get it off.

[LAUGHS]
Let's see.

All right, let's see
what we can do here.

To the privilege to be able
to order beautiful food

and it be placed
right in front of us,

to the hard work
that went into it,

to every bite and to abundance.

To Dory.
To Dory.

To Dory.

Seriously, though, like,
to Dory.

I didn't realize how unhappy
I was chasing the boys

and the photo and, like,
all this superficial shit.

And, like, I thought
that was love.

And now I know love,

and it's with all y'all.

We're family.
That shit's real.

Yeah, we're like
brother and sister.

And, Dory,
you're like our mama.

Dory was like my mama first
for many years.

You're all like the stepkids.
Bond's not the same.

That's for him!

You know what you did.

You know what you did!
It's gonna be okay.

We're gonna get you
stitched right up.

Ritchie, move.
My God. It's okay, Dory.

I'm here, I'm here.
Give her space.

Ma'am, are you okay?
Yes, yes.

Did you want
to press charges?

We could try to nab her.

No, no, no. It's all right.

She's obviously
in some sort of pain.

Oh, God.
Oh, you're so strong.

I'm okay. I'm okay.
You're so strong.

Are you okay?
Yeah, I'm fine.

Can we get some water?
Yeah, do something, guys.

Wait, where's my clipboard?

Sorry, what are you doing
with my clipboard?

I thought it was
a community clipboard.

No.

And who are you?

Hello, Dr. Benny.
I'm Dr. Carpet.

I'll be in and out of here
as the days go by.

You look familiar to me.

Did we meet
at the Saratoga convention?

We may have. We may have.
In fact, yes.

It's hard to remember.

I get so blackout
at those things.

All the chitchat
makes me drink.

Oh.
I'm sorry.

I have to ask something
very embarrassing,

but did we...

Did we what? Did we what?

You know, uh, in the hot tub

and in the barn,

twice in the barn.

I was going to be a gentleman
and not bring that up, Benny.

Why, thank you.
You know, can I ask you,

though...
I'd love to know more

about the Lyte formula,
weirdly.

Mm, you know I can't do that.

I know.
But...

I'm happy you're here,
Dr. Carpet.

Could you be a big man
and do me a favor?

My pleasure, my darling.

Could you teach these interns

how to sacrifice rats
and extract their livers?

Uh, yeah.

Okay, so the medic said

that you should take, like,
two now,

and then you're gonna
take two in four hours.

But you don't even have
to worry about it

because I'm gonna
bring them to you.

How are you feeling?
Oh, it's fine.

Something fun
to talk about at parties.

That's the spirit,
and in the meantime,

I am gonna give your sweet
little hands a hand massage.

Oh, Porshe.

Thank you
for taking care of me.

I feel so protected.

I love taking care
of you, Dory.

Well, you really are
the best at it.

[LAUGHS]

Mm.

God, that woman
was a lunatic, huh?

Mm.
And I truly cannot believe

that the disciples just fled

as soon as you
were under attack.

And the whole time,
I'm thinking, like,

if I was just sitting there,

I absolutely would've been able
to prevent it.

True.
I just don't think

these disciples
can't handle the job,

do you know what I mean?

Like, God bless them.

But I just think
they don't know what it's like

to have to work.

[RAT SQUEAKING]

So you, um...
You take your rat.

And then you...

Have a lot of little tools
here.

For example, got a little
box cutter we could...

You mean a scalpel?

That's one way to do it,

slit its poor little throat
and let it bleed out.

I don't want to do this.
I want it to go faster.

[LAUGHS]

So we could... what you could...

You could take
its little head,

and you can put it
under a...

binder, classically,
like this one, per se.

And you're going to place

its sweet little head
underneath.

And you're gonna just press
it down with as much force,

as quickly as you can,

until its poor little brains
are crushed.

Mr. Goss, I'm not interested
in games here.

What are you talking about?

Do you know what I had to go
through to get that formula?

What else do you want me to do?

The only thing
that this formula

will give people is diabetes.

What? What are you saying?

Jelly beans.

You gave me jelly beans.

[SCOFFS]

No, no, this is the formula.

If you ever want that child
out of your life,

Hey, hey, girl.
Hey.

Hey, Dory, I need to talk
to you about something.

Oh, my God. Are you okay?

Oh, yeah.
I was cut by this woman.

What?
Like, a stranger?

Elliott, can you give Dory
some space, please?

Excuse me?
I'm serious, okay?

She doesn't need extra stress.
You're a close talker.

[SCOFFS]

Well, I need to talk to Dory
privately right now,

so I might suggest
that your encroaching

on our one-on-one conversation
is actually

creating unnecessary tension
for the group.

You have three minutes.

Okay. So what's going on?
Okay, so...

I know this doctor
through my son's school

as part of, like,
a daddy's circle or whatever.

His name is Dr. Carpet.

I think he's, like, very high
up at Tunnel Industries.

He's apparently very, like,
beloved, which is sweet.

Okay.

Anyway, so he told me
that this laboratory

may not actually be working
on a formula for enlightenment.

Hmm.

Well, what does he think
they're working on, then?

Jelly beans.

What do you mean?

He said that the preclinical
trial formula 391-E,

which is the current formula...

Mm-hmm.
Is just jelly beans.

Okay, it's not
common knowledge, though.

He told me in, like,
total confidence, wasted.

He gets, like, completely
trashed and tells me things.

I'm actually very concerned
about it.

I should talk to someone
about it.

Real... he's real.

What?

Is this for real?

Yes.

♪ ♪

Where you going, boo-boo?

We sacrificed the rats
so we can extract their livers.

But you massacred them.

I don't understand.
It's inhumane.

Benny?

Can I talk to you
for a moment?

Can I ask, where are we at
with the science?

The science?
Mm-hmm.

It's on track.

We're trucking along in here.

Hmm.

Tell me about preclinical
trial formula 391-E.

How do you know about that?

Are they jelly beans?

No.

I'm glad that it's water

So they are actually
working on something, right?

Oh, yeah. They sure are.

I think it was some kind
of prank call or something.

And I'm gonna find out
who that was.

They're gonna be
held accountable.

Nobody gets to alarm you
unnecessarily like that.

They were sweet.

It was concerning.
Well, I don't know why.

There's no reason
for concern for that.

No, there's sugar compounds

[DOOR SLAMS]

I'm gonna tell you
the whole truth.

The purpose of this company
is to give people hope.

And if we make a scientific
breakthrough along the way,

that's great.

But I'm not eager to find out
this particular endeavor

is, in fact, actually...

not possible.

And I don't want our investors
getting wind of that either.

What I'd like
is for the enthusiasm

and the hype to keep building

so that this company

has a value that can
keep increasing

so that when I sell
the company,

we all stand to make
a nice chunk of change.

So this is all about
the money to you.

Dory, the pursuit
of everybody living life well

is enlightenment.

You are a crook.
Uh-uh, no.

I'm a savvy businessman.

And I'll tell you
something else I'm not,

and that's delusional,
which you are.

It'd be real easy for me

to put you right back
in that asylum.

But I would rather that you
and I stay on friendly footing.

I know that there's a way
to make this work.
