[man]
Previous/y on The Returned...

Don't get mad at me.

It's not my fault.
Something really weird happened.

I woke up in the mountains,
way up above the dam.

[Claire]
Camille is here.

You want to see her?

What are you doing?
Get out!

[door slams]

[Simon]
Excuse me. ls Rowan here?

- She's a waitress.
- I don't think so.

I know Rowan.



I know where she lives.

[crickets chirping]

[knocking]

[Simon]
Rowan, it's me. Open up.

Go away!

Go away!

Hey, can you grab that tray?
Lucy.

Lucy!

[cheers and applause]

Thanks so much.

That song was written
by our guitar player, Simon,

and he's gonna kick my ass for
telling you all this right now,

but he wrote it about
a very sweet, very hot waitress

he had a thing for.

[laughter and cheers]

And apparently,
she liked it a lot,

because tomorrow morning,

she's marrying
this lucky son of a bitch.

[man]
Right on, dude!

Yeah.

I'm not quite sure
how you managed it, buddy,

but congratulations.

To Rowan, Simon, may you
live happily ever after.

Cheers.

[cheers and applause]

We'll be back
after a short break.

Thanks a lot.

[indistinct chatter]

[camera shutter clicks]

[cheers
and indistinct chatter]

Congratulations.

[Simon]
Yeah, thanks, man.

[indistinct chatter]

[soft rock music]

Sweet.

[drums playing]

Lena.

Lena!

Come down from there.

That's okay.

[floor toms playing]

You want me
to show you?

Check it out.

You want to alternate
with your foot.

[bass drum and snare drum
playing]

Yeah.

Simon.

[camera shutter clicks]

[Sighs]

This is bad luck.

What?

You're not supposed to see me
on our wedding day.

I thought that was
only in your dress.

[grunts]

[Simon]
Nope.

No wedding dress
under there.

I'm serious.
I'm serious.

You have to go,
so I can get ready.

[Sighs]

We barely slept.

Oh, is that my fault?

You started it.

Simon?

Hmm.

What?

Nothing.
I'll tell you later.

- Tell me now.
- No.

Later.

I'll get it out of you.

I have ways.

Don't you dare.

Don't. Don't.

[Laughing]
No. stop!

Ah! Stop.

I'm pregnant.

[chuckles]

Seriously?

Seriously.

Are you happy'?

Oh, baby.

[classical music playing]

Maybe you'd be more comfortable
waiting in the office?

He's coming.

He's always late.

- Rowan.
- No.

No, he's coming.

[door clicks and creaks]

[woman vocalizing]

[somber music]

[muffled sound]

[echoing]
How about your vows?

[echo gone]
Rowan?

Um, we were gonna
write our own.

I haven't gotten around
to mine yet.

It doesn't have to be
Shakespeare or scripture.

I can give you
a few templates,

help get you started.

[Tommy]
Yeah, that'd be great.

[whispers] I got to pee.

Ladies' room is
right down that hall.

And how are you two doing?

Any nerves?

Cold feet?

Are you kidding?

I've been trying to get her
to marry me

since, what,
our second date?

I'm excited.

[cell phone vibrating]

Ah, excuse me.

Nikki, what's up?

[Nikki]
Sheriff, there's been an attack--

a young woman.

In the underpass
near the town hall.

Is she alive?

Barely.

She was stabbed,
multiple times.

I'm on my way.

Go. Go.
I got this.

Give me a kiss.

Now get out of here.

Call you later.

Pastor, thank you.

I'm so sorry
for ducking out early.

I understand.

Be careful.

[toilet flushes]

[water gurgling]

[door rattles]

[eerie music]

[Mark]
can I help you?

Yeah, I was looking
for a missing persons report

for a little boy--

eight years old,
maybe younger,

brown hair,
brown eyes.

Why are you asking?

Because yesterday, when I was
on my way home from the clinic,

I saw this boy.

It was late, and he looked
like he might have been lost.

Did you ask him
if he was lost?

I was driving,
so I just saw him.

Look, I'm-- I'm sorry.
This is stupid.

I'm sorry
for wasting your time.

Wait, you said you saw
the color of his eyes

while you were driving by?

In your car?

Yeah.

What's your name, miss?

Julie.

Julie...

[clears throat]
Han. Dr. Han.

Please come with me,
Dr. Han.

I need to take
your statement.

[eerie music]

[gasps]

Sorry, I didn't know
you were in here.

I died, didn't I?

Yeah.

Are you afraid of me?

I'm afraid of myself.

I'm gonna use
the other bathroom.

Would you guys please stop
looking at me like that?

You're freaking me out.

Another pancake?

Can I have two?

Sure.

[Claire]
Hey. Pancakes?

So this is what
you're gonna do,

just act like
everything's normal?

No, obviously nothing
is normal,

but we still
have to eat breakfast.

So, please, sit.

[sighs]
What is he doing here?

[Lena]
Did he stay the night?

No. I asked him to come over.

Why?

[Claire]
You know why.

- How do we know it's even her?
- Lena.

Haven't you heard
of identity theft?

Don't be ridiculous.

You're being ridiculous
for believing that there's

any way that
this could be Camille.

Who the hell else
would I be?

[door slams]

[Jack]
Hey.

Lena.

Why am I the only one in
this family living in reality?

She can't just
come back like this.

It's not possible.

Okay, but she's here,
and it's up to all of us--

What? Just pretend
she didn't die four years ago?

Act like
she's the baby Jesus?

Want to keep
your voice down, please?

You think you can hide her?

Why bother?

Your favorite daughter's
back from the dead.

Why not throw
a goddamn party?

Stop it.

Gonna hit me again?

[somber music]

Victor?

Okay.

Now you're gonna
talk to me.

I just got back
from the police station.

Why isn't anybody
looking for you?

Did you run away
from home?

Did somebody hurt you?

Where are you from?

Do you understand
English?

Victor, why won't
you talk to me?

[Sighs]

What happened to Simon
was a terrible tragedy.

I know how much
you've struggled.

Revisiting all those feelings
must be very difficult,

but it's going to be different
this time.

You and Tommy
are going to share

a long, happy life
together.

How could you
possibly know that?

God only gives us
what we can handle.

Apparently God thinks
I'm Noah and Job combined.

Let me ask you something.

Do you want to get married?

Of course.

Tommy is so good to me.

He's-- he's so good
to Chloe.

But then a part of me
is just...

He deserves better.

Why do you feel that way?

[Sighs]

Last night, I--

I thought I saw Simon.

It felt so real.

I thought I was over it.

I thought I was better.

Rowan,
it's perfectly reasonable

for you to be thinking of Simon
so close to your wedding day.

But I believe once you truly
accept that you and Tommy

are going to be
happy together,

that Simon would
want that for you,

then you'll find peace.

It's very important to make
peace with our ghosts.

They mean us no harm.

[somber music]

[electricity buzzing]

[upbeat rock music]

[man vocalizing]

[rock music playing]

There you go.
Anything else?

Do you know where I can
find Rowan Blackshaw?

She used to be
a waitress here.

Yeah, used to be.
She quit a long time ago.

She works
at the library now.

The library?

Yeah.

[man vocalizing]

Hey, Lena.

Isn't that the dude
you left with last night?

I thought he ditched you.

Hey, asshole.

Hey.

Thanks for leaving me
out in the middle

of nowhere last night.

That was
a real gentleman move.

You could at least
say you're sorry.

I'm sorry.

Did you find Rowan?

What are you doing here
this time of the day?

Don't you have a job
or something?

I'm a student.

[Tony]
Whenever you're ready.

Thanks.

Why do you look
so familiar?

You can figure it out
while I go to the bathroom.

Yeah, whatever.

[door clicks]

[door clicks and keys jingle]

Hi, Julie.

Hi, Annie.

Hey, little guy.

You're just cuteness
on a stick.

Victor, right?

- Yep.
- He's family, huh?

Yeah, he's my nephew.

How long is he staying?

I'm not sure.

So terrible
about Mr. Goddard, isn't it?

What do you mean?

You haven't heard?

Suicide.

He jumped off the dam.

Wasn't he a patient
of yours?

Why would he do that?

Was there something wrong
with him?

Was it cancer?

He didn't leave a note,
so everybody's wondering.

When did this happen?

Yesterday.

Okay, we got to go.

Sorry to give you
the bad news.

Bye, Victor.

What's the matter, Victor?
Cat got your tongue?

[Ben]
We didn't really know her that well.

I mean, none of us
talked to her that much.

When did she start working here,
Lucy?

Ah, end of last summer?

Yeah.
I think she's from Seattle.

Hey, there was
this guy here earlier.

He totally stiffed
Tony on the check.

He was talking to Lucy
last night. Weird dude.

Yeah, totally sketchy.

What's he look like?

Uh, dark hair.

- Probably 25-ish.
- Yeah.

Medium build.

He was wearing
a black suit.

Hey, Shane.

Lena.

Anyway, if that guy
comes around again,

just give me a call.

Will do.

Good luck.

[Nikki]
We just need you

to come down to the station,

answer a few questions.

About Lucy?

Yeah, about Lucy.

[guitar and drum music]

[feedback ringing]

[laughter
and indistinct chatter]

[bells jingle]

[drum flourish]

Check.

[somber piano music]

[eerie musical flourish]

[Tommy]
Was Lucy alone when she left?

Yes.

Did you follow her?

What? No.

Well, what did you do?

I, um...

I swept the floor,

I closed the bar,
and went home.

Can anyone
corroborate that?

I guess not, no.

Is that
because you didn't go home?

What?

You followed Lucy into that
tunnel, and you attacked her.

No.

You stabbed her,
and you left her for dead,

just like that woman
seven years ago.

That wasn't me.

I wasn't charged
with anything.

Just because we couldn't
prove it then

doesn't mean it wasn't you.

Seven years ago,
October 31st, at 1:00 a.m.,

witnesses spotted
your truck running a red light

two blocks away from the scene
of an attempted homicide.

A woman was stabbed
several times in the stomach.

There were bite marks.

[Sighs]

It was a miracle
she survived.

I told you a thousand times,
I did not hurt that woman.

Just like you didn't hurt
Meredith Williams?

Carmen Santos?

Jen Rodriguez?

And now Lucy McCabe?

That's impossible.

What's impossible, Tony?

- You sick--
- That's enough, Banks.

You can step out.

Here's the deal.

I believe you.

But I got this feeling
there's something

you're not telling me, man.

Something that could help us
put this guy away.

Am I right, Tony?

Is there something
you want to tell me?

As you know, Jack and I had
our issues before the accident,

but there was
a lot of love there.

That's the family
Camille remembers.

I don't think she even
understands we've separated.

And now you're hoping
to work things out with Jack,

now that Camille's back.

A week ago, I would have said
it was impossible.

But now,
the impossible's happened.

I've got
my daughter back.

It's not just
about us anymore.

I understand.

I hope you do.

Profound loss changes you.

For better or worse, you
and Jack aren't the same people

you were
before Camille's accident.

I am concerned that if you try
to re-create this marriage

that you once had
for Camille's benefit...

[Sighs]

That's not being honest
with yourself or her.

Is that
your professional opinion?

That is the opinion of someone
who cares about you...

And who doesn't want
to lose you.

I couldn't have gotten through
the last four years without you.

Hello, Doctor.

Hello.

Manage to get some sleep?

Not a wink.

So I guess you know
I'm a zombie.

[chuckles]

You're not a zombie.

Oh, yeah?
What am I then?

You're a miracle.

[somber music]

I was at your funeral.

I saw you in the casket.

And yet, somehow...

Here you are,

with a second chance
at life.

So all the other kids
on the bus died?

Then why am I here?

That's for you to find out.

I don't want
to be a miracle.

I just want
my normal life back.

[gentle music]

[paper rustling]

Hey.

[Sighs]

God, you were
so handsome.

[Sighs]

I want you to know

that just because
I'm marrying Tommy,

it doesn't mean I'm ever
going to stop loving you.

You're always gonna be
a part of my heart,

a part of my life.

I tried to forget you.

I had to.
I...

I had to find a way to
go on living without you.

But the truth is,
I don't want to.

I don't want
to let you go.

I know
you don't really exist,

but that doesn't
scare me anymore.

I'm glad
you've come back.

[indistinct chatter]

[children chattering
indistinctly]

[somber music]

[Sobs]

[siren wailing and beeping]

[suspenseful music]

Call me
if you need anything.

I'm sorry.

Hey,
I'm not going anywhere.

[somber music]

[car door clicks and thuds]

[engine turns over]

[grunts]

[foreboding music]

Camille?

[birds chirping]

[line trilling]

[Lena]
Hi, it's Lena. Leave a message.

And I'll call you back,
probably.

[line beeps]

When did you realize
she was gone?

Half an hour ago. I went
to check if she was sleeping.

She'd torn up Lena's room,
and she was gone.

Okay, did you call Lena?

Yeah, she's not answering.

It's okay.
We'll find her.

Jack, what if we don't?

[sobbing] What if
she never comes back?

Hey, that's not
gonna happen.

[sobbing]

[somber music]

[Sniffs]

Damn it, did you come
straight from the bar?

What are you doing?

I'm going to look for her.

Well, let's take my car.

I don't think
it's a good idea for you

to be driving right now.

[dramatic music]

[rock music playing]

[Hunter]
Hey.

Want a drink?

[muffled music playing]

Tony won't ID you
if, you know, you're with me.

Have fun out here.

[music continues]

- [crying]
- Honey, are you okay?

What happened, hmm?

[Sighs]

I saw Hunter.

He didn't even
recognize me.

Oh, sweetie.

I'm sorry.

You and Hunter weren't
that close, were you?

We were in the same class.

[somber music]

Everybody just...

moved on.

Forgot about me.

That is not true.

[Sighs]

- [sobbing]
- [mutters]

[sobbing continues]

[lights buzzing]

[door rattles]

[Nikki]
So, Mr. Moran, we've got a problem.

According to our records,
you're supposed to have died

six years ago.

Want to explain
how that works?

You're the cops.

Do you know
Rowan Blackshaw?

Why are you
asking me that?

Because Simon Moran
was her boyfriend.

Fiancé.

Yeah, who died,
six years ago.

Why are you asking me
about Rowan?

Identity theft
is a serious crime.

Do you realize that?

Why won't you
answer my question?

What's going on here?

Lock him up.

For what?

[door closes]

[Sighs]

[door rattles]

Where have you been?

[Sighs]
Why?

What's the worst
that can happen?

I'm already dead.

[knock at door]

What?

What did you do
to my room?

How's Ben?

You guys hang out a lot?

[crickets chirping]

[eerie music]

[creaking]

Get some sleep, okay?

Are you afraid of the dark?

Guess what.

So am I.

Good night.

[mournful orchestral music]

[breathing heavily]

[Sobs]

[suspenseful music]

[music swelling]
