The Leftovers (2014–2017): Season 3, Episode 4 - G'Day Melbourne - full transcript

Kevin and Nora travel to Australia, where she continues to track down the masterminds of an elaborate con, while he catches a glimpse of an unexpected face from the past, forcing him to confront the traumatic events of three years earlier.

Matt and your son
are writing a gospel about me.

We can't just be going through
all of this for nothing.

You're going through this
because your daughter died.

I'm supposed to
believe she's gone

just because they say
her dental records match?

Evie did it before.
Maybe she did it again.

Hello?

Is this Nora Durst?

Yes.

Would you like
to see your children again?

They could build a device,
blast it with radiation,



- and it would go.
- Go? Where?

Wherever they went.

I saw a mother
who had lost her child.

And I gave her back.

Let's have a baby.

I just killed a man,
a police chief named Kevin,

because I thought
he'd come back.

I've gone a bit crazy,
haven't I?

No, Grace. You just got
the wrong Kevin.

Hello, Miss Durst?

Someone is standing by
to meet you in Melbourne.

Can you be there
with $20,000 in cash?

Yes, I can do that.

I need to go to Australia.



Can I come with you?

Final boarding call
for flight 87...

Final boarding call
for flight 87.

You two together?

Yes, we are.

Australia, huh?
Long trip.

Yes, it is.
I have Global Entry.

Where's the pre-check line?

It is right over there, ma'am.
Leave your shoes on.

No need to take your laptop out.

Oh, is it all right
if I go with her?

I'm a cop, so...

Do you have Global Entry?

- No.
- Then you can't go with her.

I'll just see you
on the other side, okay?

Sir?

Yeah...

- This way, please.
- Single file.

Arms up, please.

- Your watch.
- Oh, shit. Sorry.

Just walk on down,
come back through.

- Enjoy your flight.
- Thank you.

- Come on. Hey, give it back!
- You can't take it, no.

- Look, no, no... no, you
can't take it. Sir.

- It's my suit. No, look.
- Is there a problem, sir?

It's not on the list
of restricted items.

Okay, look, there's gonna
be a nuclear event

and I'm entitled to protect
myself from fallout.

Okay?
I'm missing my flight!

I need to get to Antarctica!

I need to get to Antarctica!

Another one bites the dust.

- Hey!
- Hi.

Everything go okay?

Yeah, absolutely.

- You?
- Great.

What are you smuggling?

Sorry?

You either didn't wanna wait in line
with me for an extra five minutes

or you're smuggling something.

So, what is it?

Heroin?

I have $20,000 in cash
strapped to my body.

- Lock the door.
- What are you doing?

I borrowed your duct tape.

They would've seen it if I
walked through the scanner.

Sorry.

Why?

It's illegal to travel out of the
country with more than 10 grand.

Why didn't you
just give me half?

Huh.

Help me get the tape off?

Ooh!

Ooh.

You hiding anything else
you wanna tell me about?

Maybe.

- How many?
- 119.

- Jesus.
- They made these testimonials.

They're standing there
holding a newspaper

like a hostage video.

They... they gave their name,
so I looked them up

just to see if any of them
were still around

after they supposedly
got into this thing.

The... the thing that
zaps them with the radiation?

Yes, honey, the thing that
zaps them with the radiation.

And were they?

- Still there?
- No.

Every single one of them
is unaccounted for.

- Where'd they go?
- Nowhere.

Well, I mean,
they have to go somewhere.

- Not if they're being cremated.

Ladies and gentlemen,

the seat belt sign
is now turned off

and you are free
to move about the cabin.

So, it's a sting operation.

You give them the money,
they show you the thing,

you see that it torches
people, then you bust them.

Right.

But you don't have any
jurisdiction in Australia.

That is technically true.

The DSD didn't send you.

So, you've gone rogue?

The DSD has their hands full
with the coming apocalypse.

These assholes
invited me personally,

so I can take them down myself.

They didn't know you were
a fraud investigator?

No, they knew.

They knew pretty much
everything, actually.

Well, then they know about me.

I'm sure they do.

And they still think you're
gonna get into this thing?

And what if they ask why I
came down here with you?

I'll say

that you've come to see me off

because we're in a toxic
codependent relationship

and we've both come to realize that
we're better off apart than together.

You gonna look your dad up?

- Look him up?
- Yeah.

I thought that's why you
wanted to come down here.

No, I came down here
to be with you.

Yeah, but if he's close by...

Honey, I don't know where he is.

And if he wanted me to know,
he would've fucking told me.

Gotcha.

You brought your book.

It's not my book.
It's Matt's.

- But it's about you.
- Uh-huh.

Are you finally gonna read it?

- I already did.
- Really? When?

On the plane
when you were asleep.

- The whole thing?
- The whole thing.

"And so He left the bridge
and the hangman behind."

And when He went into the woods,
he lifted the girl to His shoulder

"and she slept, she pressed
to Him and He to her."

He capitalizes your Hs.

"Now the sun rose
and they had come to a well,

and He placed the girl
down upon its edge and..."

What?

If you read the whole thing,
what happens next?

He pushed her in.

Jesus.

Where does Matt
come up with this stuff?

Shit, shit, shit, shit,
shit, shit, shit!

Fuck!
That's them.

- Yes?
- Is this Nora?

Yes, it is.
Who's this?

There's a bus stop across
the street from the hotel.

The 570 will arrive
in about 15 minutes.

Take it to the last stop.
Don't miss it.

- We won't wait. Good-bye, Miss Durst.
- What? I... I don't...

- That was them. I have to go.
- Where?

I don't know. They want
me to get on a bus.

- You want me to go with you?
- I'll be fine.

Are you gonna follow me, Kevin?

Yeah.

Look, I have to
do this alone, okay?

Okay.

Just take your nap.
I'll be safe.

Okay.

Dinner later?

Yeah, sure.

I'll be back soon.

God, motherfucker.

G'day, Melbourne!

It's a beautiful Tuesday,
and I'm Pam Jolly.

And I'm Bruce Quartermain.

Today is October 9th,

and I have to say
I'm a bit groggy.

Oh, how was your night, Bruce?

Oh, I had a big night
last night.

- Did you go to the party?
- Well, I went to Melbourne's

Spring Fashion Ball last night.

- Tell us, tell us.
- Did you wear a costume?

Well, the theme this year
was under the sea...

- Good morning.
- Front desk.

Yeah, I can't turn off
my television.

- I can't see where it's plugged in.
- Yeah, so sorry about that.

It's powered from the wall.
Happens sometimes.

I can reset it from down here.
It'll just be a moment, Mr. Durst.

- Uh, it's Mr. Garvey.
- Oh, so sorry.

Would you like us
to add your name to the room

so you can have access
to all the guest amenities?

Yes, that would be great.
Thank you.

Well, I'm ashamed to say
that I did, Pam,

but at least I get to be having pancakes
with you here this morning, right?

- Do you like pancakes, Bruce?
- Well, now, who doesn't like pancakes?

Well, no one in their right
mind, that's what I say,

which is why we are having
a pancake cook-off today

right here in the studio.

Now, how are you with a spatula?

- You know, can you flip 'em?
- What kind of question is that?

Well, it's tricky.

And I sure hope no one
watching is named Kevin.

Why is that, Pam?

Well, apparently,
there's not one,

but two missing Kevins
in the Melbourne area.

Chief Inspector Kevin
Yarborough's police cruiser

was found abandoned
outside his home in Makarra.

Meanwhile, this man,
Kevin Garvey,

an American
holidaying down under,

was last seen wandering the road
near Kurripa nearly a month ago.

If you have any information
on the whereabouts

of either of these men,
please contact the police.

Right, let's get
to those pancakes!

- Are you ready, Georgie?
- Oh, yes, I am, Pam. Come on over.

Okay, now, tell us
about the batter.

Well, we've actually got
three batters, George.

The, um... the first one
is a plain buttermilk.

All right.
Mm, that's good.

Yeah, I like
the classic pancake myself.

- Because you're so boring!
- Aw, that's not all true.

The second one is banana.

- Oh, yum.
- That's definitely for me.

And the third one, of course,
is chocolate chip.

- Something different.
- Oh, Bruce, you'll have...

Can you hear me?

Fuck!

- Good morning.
- Front desk.

Yeah, I need you to turn my
television back on right now.

Oh, sorry, Mr. Durst.
I just reset it.

- Just give it a few minutes.
- "G'Day Melbourne," is that show live?

- Sorry?
- Are they shooting it right now?

- Uh, yes, sir. I believe so.
- Where?

Taxi!

Do you know when the bus
is supposed to get here?

Uh, any minute now.

Excuse me, miss?

Are you a mother?

- Yes.
- Thank God!

I have a job interview
in that cafe.

My sitter didn't
show up this morning.

If I go in there with a baby,
then they're never gonna hire me.

Could you please watch her?

- Just for five minutes.
- I'm waiting for a bus.

Please!
I'll be in and out, I swear.

I really need this job.
Please.

- Um...
- I'm begging you.

Uh, okay.

- Okay.
- God bless you!

There we go.

Thank you.

Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

Well, you're a good person,
taking a stranger's baby.

She could run off right now,
you'd never see her again.

Desperate times are these.

Just six days left, right?

Here's hoping.

Hey.

Oh.

Oh.

Um, excuse me,
when's the next bus?

Uh, should be another one
in about 45 minutes.

Um...

Please wait!
I'll be right back.

Wait!

Oh! I'm so sorry.

I have to go.

Discrimination is illegal.

- ♪ Serves you right to suffer... ♪
- Shit!

Wait! Hey!

Stop!

- Hey! Stop!
- ♪ Serves you right to suffer... ♪

Hey.

- Excuse me, excuse me.
- ♪ You can't keep from crying... ♪

Flip it like that.
Just like...

Oh!

Got a man down.
Pancake down... ah!

Just when I thought you were
getting the hang of it.

Doing my best here, Pam.

Hey!

Evie!

Evie?

What do you want?

- What?
- Just tell me what you fucking want.

Why is this happening again?

'Cause I fucking finished this.

So, what do you want?

Did Patti send you?

Who is Patti?

I saw you on my TV.

You were looking
right fucking at me.

Everything right?

Yeah.

Yeah. I'm fine.

Is he bothering you, miss?

You could see her?

Just step back, mate.

You're real?

Do you know him?

I've never seen this
man before in my life.

That's bullshit.

I know her.
Her name is Evie Murphy.

You know me.

My name is Daniah Moabizzi.

Why are you doing this?

- Step back.
- Hey! Relax.

Do you hear me? Oi!

Get the fuck off me, asshole.

I know her!
I fucking...

Miss Durst.

Yes?

Go on up.
They're waiting for you.

- "Take On Me."
- Ja. From?

- A-ha.
- A-ha!

Miss Durst.

I am so sorry.
I did not hear you come in.

I'm Dr. Eden.

And that is Dr. Bekker.

Hi.

Thank you for coming
all this way.

We are sorry about the building.

It's a little bit creepy, no?

- What'd she say?
- Oh, don't worry about her.

Um, let's go downstairs,
shall we?

Okay.

This is Bernard.

If you would not mind
removing your clothes,

Bernard will conduct
a brief medical examination.

We have a gown for you.

What kind
of medical examination?

It's very routine.

It's noninvasive.

And once you're done, Dr. Bekker and I,
we will just ask you a few questions

and then we can move on
to the next step.

If you're a doctor, why
aren't you doing the exam?

Oh, sadly, I'm a physicist.

But Bernard
is very professional.

I promise you're in good hands.

Okay.

Great! Well, we will
see you in a bit.

She was ready to go.

She was ready to go

and she wishes
she could've told you.

She was ready to go and she
wishes she could've told you,

but she just couldn't.

It was a stroke.

She was in a coma for three
months before he pulled the plug.

Tell him he set her free.

Three months
is a long time, man.

Uh-huh.

And she's grateful
that you set her free.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

My pleasure.

No, but while I'm here,

could you kindly
try to contact my sister?

- I'll pay extra.
- No, no, no.

That's okay.

Uh, what was her name?

Margery Prentiss.

There's five Margery Prentisses.

I need a DOB.

What was her birthday?

March 17th.

Oh, shit.
She's a departure.

Abort.
Abort.

Sir, did your sister
disappear on October 14th?

Yes.

Why?

I'm so sorry, but I
can't make a connection

with those who departed.

They're in
a different space, man.

Wish I could
help you out, but...

I can't.
I'm sorry.

I'm gonna take this.

Give him a hug and tell him the
dead wife wants him to move on.

- Hey.
- Laurie, it's Kevin. Are you alone?

What?

Are you alone?
Is John with you?

He's... he's downstairs.

You okay?

I just saw Evie.

- What?
- Evie. Evangeline Murphy.

She's alive. She's in fucking
Melbourne, Australia.

You're...
You're in Australia?

Yeah. Nora had
to come here for work.

It doesn't matter.

She's here.

She's here.
I talked to her, Laurie.

Okay.
Okay, Kevin.

I just...
I need you to slow down

and explain to me exactly
what you think you saw.

No, I don't think
I saw anything.

I had a fucking
conversation with her.

She's... she's here.

She's... I need you to do that thing
that you do on your computer

with the... you know,
go on Facebook.

I need you to find her.

She's in Melbourne and she's
using a different name.

She's using, um,
Daniah Moabizzi.

Daniah Moabizzi.

I... I took a picture
on my phone.

I'm gonna send that to you, okay?
Hang on, hang on.

Daniah. Did you see her
at the Melbourne Library?

Why? Does she work there?

Did you get the picture?

Yeah, I got it.

It's her.

I know it's her.

Did you talk to Nora about this?

Nora's not here right now.

And why did you say
she was at the library?

Hey...

Kevin...

under no circumstances should
you approach Evie again, okay?

It might scare her off.

We just...
We need to figure out

what we're gonna do
about this, okay?

We need to...

Kevin?

Kevin?!

Excuse me.

Excuse me!

You know where
the public library is?

120/80. Optimal.

Almost done.

Just need to draw some blood.

Why?

Anemia, glucose, potassium,
heavy metals, and pregnancy.

Well, I'm definitely
not pregnant.

Oh, right.
Your IUD.

You'll need to have it removed
before you go through.

- We can refer you to a...
- How did you know I had an IUD?

It's in your medical records.

Just gonna affix some sensors
for an electrocardiogram.

Oh.

Would you mind lowering
your gown, please?

The event chamber of the device

requires an intense period
of confinement.

So we're gonna simulate that
now while we're monitoring you

just to see how well
you hold up.

It'll just be for a few minutes.

There's plenty of air in there.

I am gonna close the lid, but
you can get out at any time.

If you wanna take your money in
the box with you, that's fine.

Some folks worry that we're gonna run
off with it while they're inside.

No, I trust you.

Hi. Hey.

Uh, is Daniah working today?

Who?

Uh, Daniah or Daneeah.

- "Danyah"?
- "Danyah," yes.

I'm not sure. Is there something
I can do for you, sir?

Yeah, she was helping me
look for a book.

What book was it?

Um, uh, "Assassins."

"Assassins," I think.

The title is "Assassins"?

No. If you call her,
she could probably help me.

- We don't have a book by that title. I'm sorry.
- No, I know that... I know.

But if you just get ahold of Daniah,
then I think she could help me.

So, if you just do that, that'd
be fucking great, please.

Leonard?

Oh, uh, no. I...

He's being weird.

That so?

No! Um, I just...
I don't want any trouble.

- I was just...
- Fantastic.

Let's take a walk, mate.

I need to get a book
that I was looking...

You're leaving.

It's okay, Leonard.

You know this bloke, Danni?

Yes.

I know him.

Let's talk, Kevin.

I am Evie Murphy.

I have started a new life.

I am asking you not to tell
anyone that you have seen me.

Not my mother,
my father, my brother.

I just need you
to leave me alone.

John's my friend.
He thinks you're dead.

I have started a new life.

You don't have the right
to take that away from me.

Then you need to tell me
why you're doing this.

Because...

there is no family.

Then why are you still
using that accent?

- I have to go.
- No, no.

What the fuck is going on?

What?

I have compassion for you

because you are ill.

I wanted to help.

She told me to tell you that
I was who you thought I was

and then you'd go away.

Who told you?

Mm-mm. No, no.

This one's on me.

Well, I hope you don't have
any expectations

because you took me
out to dinner, young lady.

I wouldn't dare.

- Who is it?
- Shit.

- It's Kevin.
- Call him back.

I, um...

I think I have to take this.
He's in Australia.

- He's where?
- Just give me... give me a minute.

- Kevin?
- What the fuck did you do?

Okay. I just...
I need you to calm down

and just tell me what happened.

What happened is that
I went to see Evie

and she told me
that you fucking called her.

- Where are you?
- The library.

With her?
Is she there?

Did you know about this?

Did you know
that she was down here?

Okay, Kevin,
I need you to listen to me.

I need you to... to leave and
go back to the hotel, okay?

Go back to Nora
and call me later, okay?

She told me that you said
that I was ill.

What the fuck
does that mean, Laurie?!

Remember when you were seeing
Patti and I told you that...

I'm not seeing anybody.
She's right fucking here!

You were seeing Patti
and I told you

that you never tell someone in
the midst of a psychotic break

that they are in the midst
of a psychotic break.

Remember?

You need to indulge that person's
delusion and find common ground.

Otherwise, it's very likely
that they will hurt themselves.

I don't...

I don't want you
to hurt yourself, Kevin.

Just leave Evie, okay?

Just leave her and go back
to the hotel, okay?

Or I hang up this phone
right now and I call John

and I tell him that you
just spoke to his daughter.

Laurie, you there?

Hello?

I need you to pull up
that photo you sent me.

What?

The photo that you took of Evie.

I need you to pull it up
on your phone.

Can you do that for me, please?

Okay, I did it.
What?

I want you to listen to me.

Okay? I need you to listen
to me very carefully.

You could've called anybody you
wanted when this happened,

but you called me...

because I think you knew
that I could help you.

I'm gonna give you
that help now.

This isn't real.

That girl is not Evie.

Look at the photo again.

I'm leaving now.

I don't understand
what's happening.

I think that you projected
Evie onto a stranger.

And I think
you chose Evie because...

you understood
why she did what she did.

Why she left her family.
Why she escaped.

I think a part of you
wants to escape, Kevin.

No, I... I don't
want to escape.

Then why are you in Australia?

You are chief of police.

You have responsibilities here.

It is less than a week away
from the seventh anniversary

and you just ran away
without telling anybody.

No, I... I came
to be with Nora.

She's the one
that needed to be here.

I... she's the one
that ran away.

Kevin, are you and Nora okay?

Ask John about the fucking
book he wrote about me.

Welcome back.

Your heart is very calm.

What?

Your heart rate.

It's very even.

Most people panic
after a few minutes.

Oh, thanks.

Let's have a chat, shall we?

Okay.

Mr. Linn-Baker enjoyed
talking to you in St. Louis.

Where is
Mr. Linn-Baker?

He went through.

Through the machine?

- Yes.
- Is it here in this building?

No, it's not here.

I'm happy to answer

any other questions
you may have about the device,

technical or otherwise.

Why haven't you used it?

Everything I need is here.

What about you?

I don't like the odds.

Odds?

All we know for certain

is that we are sending people

to the exact same destination

the others went seven years ago.

The odds that this destination
has a sustainable environment

with a breathable atmosphere and ample
food supply are very, very low,

so it is more likely

there are 140 million corpses

floating out there
in space somewhere.

You make it sound so appealing.

Actually, several of our
colleagues did go through.

- Dr. Van Eeghen,
the man who...

The man who designed the device,

he was one of the first
people to use it.

Oh, yes. And if you see
him, tell him we said hello

and that Finland won
the World Cup.

What did she say?

Dr. Bekker is...

Dr. Bekker thinks you have no
intention of using the device.

Um, she believes
that you're curious,

but once the time comes,
you will get...

Uh, how do you say...

Cold feet.

I won't get cold feet.

Good.

So, do you want my money now?

No, not yet.

We have a question
for you first.

- Just one.
- You wanna know why I brought Kevin with me.

My boyfriend.

You know everything else
about me,

so I just figured
you'd be worried...

We know who Kevin is
and we're not worried.

Okay.

What's your question?

Two infant twins are born.

One of them will grow up
to cure cancer,

but only if
the other one dies now.

You don't have to
kill the baby yourself,

but you do have to nod
to make it happen.

Do you nod?

If I nod, how will
the baby be killed?

Will it suffer or is it gonna
be quick and painless?

Quick and painless.

- Are they mine, the twins?
- Irrelevant.

It's relevant if you want me to
answer your fucking question.

They're not yours.

She was working for you.

Sorry?

The woman at the bus stop
who gave me her baby.

That was a test, right?

We have no idea
what you're talking about.

Mm, sure you don't.

Please just answer the question.

Kids die every day.

What's one more?

And I get to cure cancer?

Of course I nod.

That's it?

Yes, Miss Durst.

That's it.

So, how does this work?

You give me a name,
I go to a hotel room,

explain what Low Amplitude Denziger
Radiation is, and then what?

Do I come back here or what?

That won't be necessary.

What? Why?

I'm afraid we will not be
proceeding any further.

What?

What, did I answer
your stupid question wrong?!

Oh ho ho, I get it.
I get it!

You turn me down and then you want me
to beg you to take my money, right?

Keep your money.

No.

No.

Wait!

Stop!

Go home, Miss Durst.
This isn't for you.

George.
George Brevity.

This is Nora Durst
calling for him.

Yeah, I know!
I am a fraud investigator

and I need to talk to him because
I've uncovered a massive fraud.

Mm, well, then... well, then
give me his home number

because it's an emergency.

No, I...
I will not hol...

God damn it!

Hi.

Hi.

What happened to your head?

- Are you smoking?
- Yeah, you want one?

- What happened?
- They turned me down.

- Who?
- The people who invited me here.

They... they told me that I wouldn't
be proceeding any further.

- Did they take your money?
- No.

- I thought it was a scam.
- Yeah!

And they must've known that I knew it was
a scam and that's why they fucking ran.

But I'm gonna find them.

I'm gonna find them and I'm
gonna fucking destroy them.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Kevin.

What's wrong?

You can tell me anything.

No, I can't.

Why not?

The last time
I told you everything,

I woke up handcuffed to a bed
and you were gone.

Kevin.

I didn't know how to handle
you talking to a dead person.

Oh, Jesus.
Is it happening again?

- I, uh... we need to call Laurie.
- What?

I told her I would come back
here and we would call her.

When did you talk to Laurie?

- I needed help.
- With what?

- I saw some... I thought that I saw someone.
- Okay.

- I needed to make sure...
- Who did you see?

That doesn't matter.

You won't tell me, but you'll tell Laurie?
Who else? Matt?

'Cause if you're having visions, he's
gonna wanna put it in your fucking book.

It's not my fucking book!

No? I think you like it.

I think you wanna be
Jesus Christ fucking Superstar

because it makes you
feel important.

Like it?
I fucking love it!

It's riveting!

I've read it fucking cover
to fucking cover!

There you go.

Book's gone.

We never have to talk about it
again, because that's what we do.

We don't fucking talk
about anything!

What do you wanna talk about?

What do you wanna talk about?

Why didn't you stop me?

Stop you from what?

From giving her away... Lily.

I didn't stop you

because you decided you wanted
to do it, and you did it.

You never even asked me
what I wanted.

And if I had, Kevin,
what would you have said?

You were relieved.
Just say it!

And now you want a new baby.
Are you fucking insane?

Are you afraid you're gonna
give that one away, too?

You can't have a kid,

because then you'd
have no excuse.

You couldn't be a victim anymore.
You'd have to be okay.

No one would feel sorry for you.

I do not want people
to feel sorry for me.

Well, then how long, Nora?

How long before
you move past it?

Move past what?

That you lost your kids.

I did not lose them!

My kids are not dead.
They are gone.

They are just gone.

Then you should go be with them.

- I need a taxi.
- No taxis, sir.

Why not?

The explosion.

Yes, hi...

I'll be back.

Jesus.

I can't believe
you're actually here.

I saw you on the TV
in the window.

I turned to my friend, I said, "Holy shit!
That's my boy."

We called the local hotels...

and here you goddamn are.

Hey there.

Son, that's Grace.

Is this real?

Of course it's fucking real.

- Where are you going, anyway?
- Home.

You didn't see the news?

All flights grounded.

Are you alone here?

Yes.

Well, you're not alone anymore.

Come on.

The airport's shutdown.
They're diverting us.

How the hell
do we get to Melbourne?

Please. Let us on board.

We need to bring Kevin back
from Australia.

You spoke his name.

Your people bought out
the whole boat.

My people?
I'm not one of those lunatics!

What are you doing?

This is your fault.

What kind of person
do you think I am?

- Creation. Suffering...

Sacrifice.

The Sudden Departure?

Why? There has to be a reason.

No!
