Servant (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 8 - Jericho - full transcript

She accepted the doll

and now she appears
to have accepted this.

Nothing's really any different.

Did I tell you about the new girl
on the team?

Isabelle
something or other.

-Will you have a drink with me?
-Sure.

If anything had happened
to him.

Never will.
Not while I'm around.

Whose baby is it?

Sean and Dottie, they're thinking
about making a proper home for it.

She thinks it's Jericho.



How much did those boys
tell you about what happened?

What did they do?

Can't take a doll
to soccer practice, Sean.

- I'm not sleeping. Barely eating.
-It's okay now.

Why didn't I get
a fucking doll?

I just keep going
over and over it.

Okay.

I know. I know.
Okay.

Oh, hey.

Fuck you!

What do you have to do, huh?
What do you do?



Reverse spherification.

When the calcium lactate
meets the alginate,

it forms
an instant membrane,

which encapsulates
the liquid.

Mmm.

Go fish.

You just can't help
some people.

The fuck are you doing here,
Gollum?

Tobe is here
to take Leanne on a date.

It's not really a date,
so...

That is why Uncle Julian
is on babysitting duty.

Take him upstairs
to the girls

and tell Dorothy
we need to go.

Sure.

- You've been avoiding me all week.
- I know. I've been busy.

How's Natalie?

She hasn't left my apartment
in three days.

She's taken me off dairy.

Apparently,
these headaches are

par for the course.

- What did you tell her?
- Nothing incriminating.

Sold her
on the whole adoption line.

How you and Dorothy can offer him
a life he can never... Blah, blah, blah.

- Well, you know.
- What did she say?

She thinks
it's a terrible idea

that will ultimately end
in long-term

psychological damage.

I can't say
I entirely disagree with her.

I wouldn't eat those
if I were you.

Fuck it.
Well, I'm starving.

Dorothy's upset that she's stopped...
feeding.

So I wanted her
to know

that the excess milk
is appreciated.

Oh, f...

- Jeez.
- Need a drink?

Yeah.

Sean gave them to me
for our first anniversary.

Vintage.

But has the tiniest little clasp.
You need the most delicate little fingers.

You must be going
somewhere nice.

Oh.
Annual Television Journalism Awards.

Sean's my plus one.

Oh.

- Have you been...
- Invited. Yes.

So,
where's Tobe taking you?

- Bowling.
- Oh.

His cousin works there,
so we can get a lane for free.

Well, I think
Tobe's very fond of you.

In that way.

He's such a nice boy,
really.

You could do
a whole lot worse.

Sean asked me
to give him to you.

Some lucky boy has a date
with his uncle Julian.

Wait, wait, wait, wait,
wait.

Oh, wait, wait, wait.

Guys.

Hang on.

We need to get a picture.

There.
Get together.

Put your arm around her, Tobe.
She's not gonna break.

That's it. Cute.

- That's our car.
- Okay. Uh...

- Julian, make sure you check on him.
- I got it.

The grizzly becomes
an expert fisherman when it comes to...

Roscoe.
What are you doing tonight?

Well, get off your fat ass
and go bowling.

She's headed there
with her boyfriend.

See if she makes contact
with anyone.

...tackle those hard-to-reach corners.

The secret OxiClean stain-fighting bubbles
that power...

How safe is your family?

How would you cope
if you woke up tomorrow

and they were all gone
without leaving so much as a note?

Hey!

Hey!

Are you awake?

Little fuck.

Hey!

Fuck.

Fuck!

Hi. This is Sean Turner.
Leave a message and make it brief.

Call me. Seriously, dude,
wash down the fucking foie gras

and fucking call me.

Hey. It was all good.
I found her.

- Does she have a baby with her?
- What?

Are you with her?

Show me her.
Fucking show me her!

Hold on.

Hang on. I got another call.

Stay with her.

- Hey, you called me?
- It's not here.

- What's not here?
- What do you fucking think?

- Hey, Julian.
- Hey, Dottie. Are you having fun?

Oh, it's a riot.
How's Jericho?

Ah...
Quiet as a mouse.

Yeah, I was just asking Sean
where he left the Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

Don't you drink that.

Oh, Sean,
we should probably take our seats.

But kiss him from Mama,
please.

Okay. Call me when you...

Fuck!

Juju.
What are you doing here?

Dottie. You decent?

There he is.

How 'bout a big smile for Grandpa,
little fella?

They're out.

You could've said something.

I was rather caught up
in your performance.

What do they got open?

Where are they?

Some TV
backslapping event.

So, she's well enough
to swill free champagne then?

Listen, Pa,
it's great to see you,

but I'm kinda in the middle
of something right now.

You know
she texted me this afternoon.

Wanted to know if it was appropriate
to invite Aunt Jenna to the baptism.

She was always
fond of Aunt Jenna.

A baptism?

I've ridden out
some pretty

embarrassing moments
in this family's history,

but she will not be
parading

that sack of
cloth in a church.

Sean and I
are gently talking her out of the idea.

What is this?
I need something with body.

They gotta get rid of this place.

Sooner the better.
Too many ghosts.

Yeah, I don't think
the market's right.

Maybe in the spring.
When it's apple-blossom time.

What's the matter? You drying out?

Nah.

Ish.

If I were to show you
something, Juju,

would you swear to secrecy?

I can try.

I want you
to look at this.

Why don't you...
tell me what you see?

Hmm?
What do you see?

You know what.

Say it.

It's a baby.

What baby?

Jericho.
There. It's Jericho.

What if I told you
it wasn't?

What if I told you this is Anders
and his mother is Swedish.

And for a small contribution,
he's looking for a home.

What... I'm sorry. What?

Hear me out.

We want rid of that doll.

We all agree on that.

What if we put this boy
in its place?

We don't say a word.
We let her find him.

We see how she reacts.

If she freaks,
we take it straightaway.

But if she doesn't...

If she can't tell the difference...

In all but genetics,

this boy
can be Jericho Turner.

- And I will take that secret to...
- Sorry.

- What?
- I'm sorry. It's not you.

Well,
at least I'm looking for a solution.

What time are they due back?

12:00.

I can't wait that long.
The dogs will need to shit.

I am pressing "Accept" on the car.
Two minutes.

It isn't the worst idea.

Anders, whatever his name is.

It's not like we haven't
considered something similar.

I will do anything

to get that fucking doll
outta this house.

And if we do it my way,
it'll be like it never happened.

For Dorothy.

The rest of us...
will always know.

I don't know how you're coping, Juju,
after what you found.

I didn't do anything.

You were always the strong one.
A fighter.

- Unlike Dottie.
- Don't start on her. Not now.

I'm just glad
we gave her a brother.

He's raced his way here. Mmm.

I never know
if that bodes well for the journey.

You'll talk to Sean,
sound him out?

I'm sure he'll be intrigued
by the idea.

Kiss from Grandpa?

Yeah. Humor.
That's the spirit.

Roscoe, where are you?

20th, coming up on Cypress.

Okay, I can take it from here.

Punch the clock
and go home.

Here we are.

Thanks for walking me
home.

Course. Any...
Anytime.

I had a great time tonight.

- Me too.
- Good.

No, no, no. I'm...
I'm sorry. It's just...

It's... It's not you. I...

Hilarious.
Now, where's the real one?

Do you really wanna play
this game?

You really go all out,
don't you?

I'm impressed.

She'll be back in an hour and ten.
Should we get on with this?

Will you get me some more diapers please,
Julian?

Yeah. There we go.

How much?

I'll give you 50K, cash.

But here's what I want for it.

When Dorothy gets
back home tonight,

the baby's gonna
be in that crib.

The breathing, kicking, pissing one.
Agreed?

Shh.

Is he on his way?

The old fuck...
Is that who we're waiting for?

Uncle George?

He'll be at home
by now.

With my aunt.

I went to Wisconsin.

I found Leanne Grayson's house.

I saw her school,
her local store, her gravestone.

You took a dead girl's identity. Big deal.

I don't actually give a fuck
who you are anymore.

I wanna talk
to whoever's in charge.

Does my breath smell,
Julian?

You're a real-life whack job,
aren't you?

I wonder
how they make cotton candy.

I mean, I know it's
just color and sugar.

But... what does the machine do?

Why does it need to spin?

Bet Sean would know.

In under an hour,
Dorothy is going to get here.

She's gonna kick off her shoes and scurry
up the stairs and check the crib.

What will she find?

That's a funny question.

Well, I'm in a funny mood.
What does she find?

Jericho.

The baby she thinks is Jericho.
Good.

Let's work with that.
Where is it?

He's in his crib.

Am I negotiating with someone
with a reduced mental capacity?

What do you want?

What did you find, Julian?

75,000.

When you came to check on them,
what did you see?

100.
But we're on the fucking ceiling here!

Thank you for sitting
with Jericho tonight.

I'm really glad you guys
got to spend some time together.

But I can take it from here.

Dare me!

Do you fucking dare me?

If you think this is real,
what happens if I let go?

- You're not gonna drop him, Julian.
- Won't I?

You would never
intentionally hurt anyone.

Well, you might wanna get down there,
because in five, four, three...

I'm gonna fucking do it!

Two, one!

It's in the house.

It's downstairs.

Baby!

Baby!

Baby!

Wake up, little baby!

Baby. Baby!

Dorothy?

Baby!

Baby!

I was the first one
here.

Julian?

He opened the Neuf-du-Pape.
I can smell it.

I'm gonna check on him.

Hey.

Mmm.

Oh, there you are.

How was he for you?

Didn't hear a peep out of him
all night.

Hmm.

Isn't he
the best?

May I hold him?

Oh, of course.

Hey, Wanda?

Hey.

Why did you call earlier?

It's not important now.

They sat us at a guest table.

I thought Dorothy
was gonna lose her fucking shit.

But she was totally cool.

I mean, like a different person,
better than before.

I don't know if it's the baby
or having Leanne in the house.

She knows.

- She what?
- Leanne.

She knows everything
now.

Julian,
what the fuck?

Oh.

I'm glad you're still awake.
Can you help me?

So, how was your night?

Good.

You know
what I'm asking.

Did you get a good-night kiss?

He doesn't like me
in that way.

Oh.

Are you sure?

You were wrong,
Mrs. Turner.

Can you not get it?

It's stiff.

Well, just use your nails.

If I didn't bite them so much.

Here, let me try it.

Oh! Leanne!

Oh!

Oh, God. You're so clumsy.
Help me find them!

Do you see any more?

I think
I saw some go under the bed.
