T@gged (2016–…): Season 3, Episode 6 - Dead End - full transcript

Elisia realizes her relationship with Ash might be in trouble while Rowan meets Alison to discuss what she knows about the new threat.

WOMAN: Previously on
"T@gged"...

- And who are you
hanging out with?

- Found a new crowd.
Some people I met online.

- I promise you, I am going
to stop this once and for all.

- I wish you'd never
climbed through my window.

You really
shouldn't trust him.

- He cares about you.
We're looking for Zoe too.

- She's dead.
- What?

- Zoe's dead.

- Who is Mr. Empty?
- An online urban legend.

MAN: The one, the only.



- Elisia, do you know Jai?
Jai Mathis?

Look, she knows something
about Nicki.

- Stay out of this, okay?
You do no wanna get involved.

[phone chimes]

[tense music]

WOMAN: Look for Jake's gun.

It's been missing since
the night somebody shot Ash.

WOMAN: I tagged you guys.

[dog barking, whimpering]

- Jake's gun is gone.

This is bad.

- I can't believe someone
was in Tessa's room.

- Well, she tweeted this
morning, so she's still alive.

That's fantastic.



- Why Tessa?

- Probably because she's
so damn nosey.

I mean, she won't stop
asking about Nicki.

And she's suspicious about
this one girl named Jai Mathis.

She stole Jai's phone,

and Jai had a photo of me
at the grotto

the night Ash got shot.

The night I was
supposed to be dead.

- So Jai is a zoo member.

- Maybe she knows
who shot Ash.

Maybe she shot Ash.

- Was Zoe even KingCobra?

- Maybe the real KingCobra
killed Zoe.

- Maybe it's exactly
what Brandon was saying.

You know, that it's spreading.

From Brandon to Zoe
to somebody else.

Well, maybe it's Jai.

- Just like always.

And we can't tell anyone.
- We're trapped.

Jake's gun has
my fingerprints on it,

and KingCobra has a video
of me burying it right here.

What if KingCobra used Jake's
gun to shoot Ash?

I was at the grotto that night.

I don't--
I don't have an alibi.

Maybe Hailey
did the right thing.

Maybe we should leave town.

- No, no, we can't let them
scare us away.

I'll protect you, I promise.
I promise.

[phone chimes]

It's Trevor.

[shouting and grunting
on video game]

TREVOR: Nice.

Dude, you suck.
BRANDON: Shut up.

- What is he doing here?

- Chill, sis.

- Is she my birthday present?

Trev, I told you
not to get me anything.

- I'm leaving.
TREVOR: No, stay.

Stay, please.
Look, I knew you wouldn't come

if I told you
he was gonna be here.

- [gruff voice]
Stay with us, Rowan.

- You were in my room?

And seriously, you made it
sound like something was wrong

in your text.
- There is.

Look, having my best friend

and my pseudo sibling fight
is the worst.

You guys are trying to
figure out the same thing,

so help each other.

- Yeah, not interested.
- Whoa!

- Brandon knows
how to find KingCobra.

- Trevor told me Zoe's dead.

- Really? You have
anything to do with that?

- [sighs]

Come on, Rowan,
I might be a liar,

but I am not a murderer.

- We've been getting
messages from KC since then.

Hasn't stopped.

- I know Zoe's
boyfriend's name.

Well, his first name.
- What is it?

- Oh, I thought we weren't
working together.

- Does it start with an L?

- How'd you know that?

- Then I know his last name.

- Lance.
- Broadly.

- And voila.

- L. Broadly was the last
person to check out this book,

so I guessed the letter L.

- Clever girl.

- Did you find anything yet?

- No Lance Broadly.

Zero social blade.

Who doesn't have an Insta?

- Look, this is the page where
the piece was torn out.

See?

BRANDON: Yeah.

So Lance checks out
a book from the library,

a book Zoe has read before.

He tears out a specific line,
and he sends it to her.

Why?

ROWAN: Wait, look.

- What is it?

- I don't know.

- Let me see it.

- Maybe if we find out
who Lance Broadly is,

we can get answers
about Zoe.

Maybe he's KingCobra.

- It's a phone number.

- Let's call it.

- Wait.

- Why?
- What's your plan?

We need a plan.

[line ringing]

ALISON: Hello.

- Hey, I got a new phone.
Who is this?

ALISON: It's Alison.
Who are you?

- It's Lance.
Lance Broadly.

- What was I supposed to do?

- Not that.

Nice.

- Can you trace this message?

- Patience, okay?
You can't rush genius.

Now, is this the first time
that Mr. Empty

has messaged any of you guys?
- Yeah.

I, um--I don't know
if it's the same person

as KC or if there are
more of them.

- Maybe I can see
if the messages

are coming from
one phone or two.

ELISIA: Did you find anything
suspicious about Hawk?

I still think
something's up with him.

- No, not yet.
- Look up Jai Mathis.

My name is Rowan.

I need to talk to you.

I'll be behind Padre's
tonight at ten p.m.

It's about Mr. Empty.

You know what's on this drive?

Information about Olive.

Her new last name,

the school she goes to,

Zoe found my little sister.

Why?
Why would she do that?

about my family,

and I told her things.

Things I've only
told one other person.

You.

Zoe cares about me.

- She's dead, Ash.

- What?

- Zoe's dead.

Murdered a couple nights ago.

I'm sorry.

Who is he?

gave me this phone.

He's the only one

It's the same phone

You need something

In person?

He calls.

He always calls.

I'm one of his empties.
I do things for him.

I take photos of people,
I get dirt on them.

Maybe I scare them

but I've never hurt anyone.

He wants me to hurt someone,

and I won't.

- We're gonna stop him.

- Don't go looking
for him, okay?

Whatever you think you need,

You can't stop him.

Please.
