The Girlfriend Experience (2016–…): Season 2, Episode 3 - Eggshells - full transcript
Now, look into the light.
I am Bria Jones.
I am Bria Jones.
You'll testify against
Donald Fairchild
and in exchange, we'll
relocate you to a safe house
assist you in finding
an appropriate employment
and assign you a US Marshal
for the protection
I know you're scared,
but as long as you listen to
and trust me, you and your
daughter will be safe.
She's not my daughter.
I don't want to go!
I'm not going!
Do you have any hobbies?
I have things I
like doing, I guess.
Um, you could send me a car.
I could meet you for 500,
and we could discuss
what it is that
you're looking for.
Yeah, Tuesday's good.
This is not a job where
you can set your hours.
I know.
Saying you need
to use the restroom
and then never returning to
the line is, uh, not acceptable.
I was feeling unwell.
You've only been here
a few weeks, but I don't think
I need to explain to you
that if you don't feel well
you need to tell me
before you just take off.
Uh, I was having
a feminine issue
and I was embarrassed.
Oh, uh...
Uh...
You know, next time,
don't be embarrassed.
Just, you don't even
have to tell me about
what's goin' on
with your body, okay?
Just... Please don't
disappear like that.
Or I'll have no choice.
Understand?
I understand.
I think that's a good idea.
So why don't we meet?
Um, you could send me a car.
I could meet you for 500,
and we could discuss...
...what it is that
you're looking for.
Yeah, Tuesday's good.
Yeah, I can't wait.
I'm having
that feminine issue again.
Kayla?
Hello.
Hello, car service.
I'm out front.
Yeah. Okay, I'll be out
in just one minute.
Thank you.
Hey, there.
You on parole or somethin'?
No.
No, we just moved here
from Toronto.
Oh, I thought maybe that guy
who hangs around here all day
was your parole officer
or somethin'.
No, just my cousin.
I don't, I don't know a lot
of people around here, so...
- That's a nice dress.
- Thanks.
I'm running late,
but nice talking to you.
Hi.
- Can I get you a drink?
- No, I'm good.
I'm just waiting for someone.
Would you like to start a tab?
- How much is that?
- Thirteen.
Thanks.
- Lola?
- Paul?
Uh, sorry, I'm late.
Holy moly, I am a lucky guy.
Lucky dude.
I'm sorry,
I'm in a time crunch.
Don't apologize.
I'm late myself 'cause
I got caught in a seminar.
Bunch of old people
asking a lot of questions.
It was a trap.
I should've known better.
Anyway, here I am.
Lookin' at you explaining
why I'm so late
making excuses...
My whole job is just kinda
telling people
not to make excuses.
Excuses, excuses...
- Let me buy you a drink.
- Well...
Just one. You have time?
I've really got
to pick up my daughter.
That's right, you mentioned
you had a daughter
- Yeah.
- How old is she?
- She's in seventh grade.
- I love kids. What's her name?
- Uh, uh...
- Sorry.
I know it's uncomfortable.
We just met.
You don't have to tell me
anything you don't
want to tell me.
- And neither do you.
- Nice.
We're off to a good start then,
aren't we?
So tell me about yourself, Paul.
Let's make a promise,
for the next 30 minutes
neither you nor me
will say sorry
about anything.
I had to say it too many times
growing up, I hate it.
It's been said to me
too many times.
It's one of those words
I hate, and...
Deal.
- I had to say sorry--
- Done.
Been told sorry
too many times.
And I just want to enjoy
sitting across from a hot woman
and not feeling sorry
about shit.
- You're not so bad yourself.
- Ah, gracias, señorita.
So, what, you have kids or...?
Kids? Uh, never really found
the right person.
I'm into kids, but...
I work so intensely
to fix everything.
Hm.
I want to have 'em
but, I don't know,
I was s-so self-involved
and it just never seemed
like the right time.
Yeah.
I wanted to have kids too.
Wait, but I thought you,
um, you said--
And then I adopted Kayla.
She was my best friend's
daughter.
Kayla? Now we're opening up.
I like that.
Is she named after someone?
Uh, her mum wanted
to name her Katie
but she thought
that was too common.
So, I adopted her
after she died.
Wow.
Then we moved here from Toronto.
So cute.
I, I was named after one
of the apostles of Jesus.
- Is Lola your real name?
- Yeah.
All right, because
the last girl I was with
she lied to me
about everything.
- Made me paranoid.
- Hmm.
Anyway, I tried to get away
from religion.
Uh, I was raised in it...
All day, all night.
Now, I don't have it
and I kinda just miss
believing in something.
I feel kinda empty.
You want to show me
your hotel room, Paul?
Thirsty?
Can I make you a drink?
- No, I'm okay.
- Sure?
Nice little whiskey
out of a cute jar?
- It's cold out.
- Yeah, but it's nice.
Hey, look,
if you have to be somewhere
it's not a big deal.
- I totally get it.
- I can stay a little longer.
What would you like
to do to me?
I know you said
you only wanted 500
but...I thought I'd throw
a little more, 700.
Thank you.
I really want you
to get to know me.
It's very important.
...but I'm going to
have to take you first.
I think you're really gonna
like it, though.
Do I still have to tell
everyone I'm from Toronto?
Yes, you do.
- I will support my daughter.
- I will support my daughter.
I will try to be better.
I will try to be better.
Are you hiding
something from me?
No.
Machine doesn't lie, Bria.
I know you're hiding something.
I have to know where you are
and what you're up to
every minute of the day.
I'm here to protect you.
You're here to tell me
when I'm fucking up.
I don't want to lecture you,
but there's one thing
I cannot tolerate
and it's people lying to me.
I want you out
of my fucking house.
All right, when this
whole thing goes to trial
you can get rid of me.
For right now, I'm gonna
need you to be honest.
People that care about us.
People that believe in us.
It's not easy.
A lot of us...
...we feel like frauds,
don't we?
Empty inside, soulless.
Ooh, confused.
But we're not.
We're human.
We have power.
It's gonna be a crazy ride.
You guys are all here,
you're gonna watch me...
...might think,
"Oh, it's a little bizarre
"It's a little strange,
this guy.
Where does he get
his ideas from?"
You might even think
I'm a fraud.
But it ain't the truth.
This is real, my friends.
This is maybe the realest thing
you've ever experienced.
And if you trust me,
and you believe me
and you feel my energy
and it comes through
I'm telling you, I'm gonna
unleash the human spirit
the soul, and the vibrations
in each and every one of you.
And you'll never be the same.
Now, all of you, on the ground.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Uh, bathroom. S-sorry.
Uh, I got to put you
in the bathroom for a second.
Oh, I thought
we aren't doing sorries.
No, well, I'm
doing sorries.
Sorry.
I'm not crazy.
You're putting me
in a position to act crazy
because you're not
returning my calls.
I'm not doing anything, Diane.
Don't do that tactic.
Don't, don't do that, don't...
Don't act like I'm crazy,
so you can dismiss me.
Diane, I can't deal with
you when you're so angry.
You live in another reality.
Again, you're dealing
in vagaries with me.
All I ask, Diane, is
a simple kinda communication.
You know what, fuck you!
Fuck you!
- You want a water? Want a tomato?
- Uh, no.
My kids call you
'dad', per your request.
That's what you wanted.
You made a commitment
and-and now you're backing out.
- Things change, Diane.
- This is not right.
On so many levels,
professionally...
...personally.
I do care about you,
and I said I would pay.
Yeah. You said you
would, but you haven't.
- You disappeared.
- Good coconut.
- You're such a piece of shit!
- Forget that.
I used to believe in you...
...and all this shit.
I used to believe
your bullshit.
- I don't anymore.
- Always a pleasure, Diane.
And here we are.
- She seems nice.
- Yeah, she used to be.
You'll be all right.
Yeah.
I know I'll be all right.
Come here.
Hm.
When I look at you...
...I really want to touch you.
You can touch me.
Where do you want to touch me?
Hm?
Touch me here?
Let's fuck.
Hm?
Ah-huh. Lola, let's
not rush things, o-okay?
Hey! This is
totally unacceptable.
This is unacceptable, Bria.
Do you know what time it is?
I'm going to bed.
Fucking leave already.
- W-what are you doing?
- What are you doing?
This isn't your house.
You can't just
disappear like that.
- You can't just go rogue, Bria.
- I'll do what the fuck I want.
No, actually, you can't.
I need you to go
into Kayla's room
and talk to her about
going to school tomorrow.
- She'll be fine.
- It's her first day.
Go to her room.
Fine.
So, uh, big day tomorrow.
- You must be scared?
- What do you think?
I mean, it's not ideal.
We're both in the same boat.
But you'll get to make friends.
Fuck you.
I tried.
I'm sorry, Kayla.
What the fuck are you doing?
It's a Tuesday night.
Mothers don't stay out
all night on a Tuesday
and that's a child.
The idea is that
you're her mother.
Y-you are acting
like a spoiled bitch.
This whole thing
is about normalcy, basic normalcy
and you're failing.
You don't see
how you're doing that?
Can you be that stupid?
I'm not good.
I'm not good.
I know, I get it...
...but I don't know how to be.
I don't know how to be
and I don't think I ever will.
I don't think I ever will.
Hey.
It's okay.
I mean,
it's-it's all right.
Bria, come here.
It's gonna be okay.
It'll be all right.
It will be okay.
Oh.
Oh.
- I want you to fuck me.
- No!
You're here,
because the trial's happening
and you're a key witness,
and you are not innocent.
Not by a fucking long shot!
I know who you are.
I know what you do.
I know how the fuck
you operate.
Fuck off!
I'm only here
because you pricks don't have
fucking anything without me.
Do not try to fucking play me.
You are lucky to be here.
You fucking respect it!
Fucking, I don't need you.
You think I fucking need you?
I don't fucking need any...
- I will obey the law.
- I will obey the law.
I am protected
if I obey the law.
I am protected
if I obey the law.
I will listen to
those who give me advice.
I will listen to those
who give me advice.
- I don't believe you.
- I don't believe you.
I wasn't expecting
you to repeat that.
Just tell me what to say next.
- Hi, Paul.
- Lola. Lola.
Lola. Lola.
Hey, I've been
thinking about you.
I feel like we kinda made
a strange connection.
And I don't know,
I was callin' because
I thought it would
be cool to take
you and your daughter out.
Maybe we could go
to, like a picnic
or I could spoil you guys.
Would you like me
to spoil you?
I am Bria Jones.
I am Bria Jones.
You'll testify against
Donald Fairchild

relocate you to a safe house
