Undone (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 2 - The Hospital - full transcript

Dad?

Alma!

Aquí.

What are you doing?

Your sock was slipping.

- Please don't do that.
- What about my socks?

Becca, you're not wearing socks.

- Why not?
- Because you're a dog!

A dog doesn't have money
to buy socks.

But I want socks.
I want socks like Alma!

Ugh, this is so typical.



Alma! Be nice to your sister.

Dad!

Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!
I want socks!

Well, why don't you go
in your closet and get some?

-But I want Alma's socks.
-Alma, just give Becca
your socks.

No. That's not fair!
They're my socks!

Okay, each of you
gets one sock. Hmm?

- Everyone's happy?
- No, Mom!

Okay, I think I've got this.

Come around here.

I will make you
a special pair of socks.

Right here...

Straight from the boulevard,
in Paris.

There you go,
the latest fashion.



Daddy, I can't wear
newspaper socks!

Believe in it, try it, try.

You must believe in the sock.

- My goodness,
you're ruining my socks!

Are you waking up?

Is she too drugged to talk?

-I'm going to get the nurse.

Do you know how terrible
it would have been for me
if you died?

Hey, Dad, can I go back out
to get more candy?

I'll go with you.
Don't tell Mom.

I never got that story.

You know, you've got this girl,
Dorothy, right?

She's living a normal,
boring life,

and she gets a chance
to live an exciting life,

and all she wants to do
is go home.

Hey, if you had the chance
to do something amazing,

would you just
want everything to return
to normal?

I always think if the witch dies
when she gets wet,

she must have to be
real careful peeing.

-That's very perceptive.

It's work. Hold on.

Hello, Farnaz?

Whoa, whoa.
Slow down, slow down.
That can't be right.

Check on the...

No. Don't call 9-1-1.

Do not call 9-1-1.
I'll... I'll be right there.

I will be right there.

- I have to go.
- What?

You stay right here, okay?

No, not again, Dad.
I don't know this place.

I cannot get home from here.

Stay here,
I will be back for you.

Dad! Dad!

What were you doing
without a seat belt? Hmm?

Not thinking about me
or your sister,
I can tell you that.

-This is the worst time.
-Yeah, I'm so sorry
I almost died at a bad time.

That was super selfish of me.

I ran into your doctor.

She said you can start
physical therapy tomorrow.

Everything is gonna be okay!
How awesome is that?

So totally awesome.
Majorly stoked
for physical therapy.

Well, I am majorly stoked
that you're gonna get better.

I'm really sorry
we had that fight, you know?

- I don't think I do know.
- Okay, well, it doesn't matter.

-Okay.
-We have so much
wedding planning to do!

I need you to get better.

Yeah, I'm so sorry
I've been slacking.

It's just, like,
been really hard
to organize things

when I'm in a coma.

You're not gonna use
that excuse forever, are you?

- Probably a while, yeah.
- No.

- Well, partly.
- What? Partly what?

- What partly what?
- What?

Sam's gonna need to get a tux.

He has his waiter uniform.
Can he just wear that?

- Why does Sam need a tux?
- For your wedding.

Why would Sam be coming
to my wedding?

So now my boyfriend
can't come to your wedding?

Okay.
Um, you should get some rest.

I'm just saying, he'd probably
be the only person there
who likes Reed.

People like Reed.

Wait...

Is this a dream?

- No.
- No.

Well, partly.

Okay, um, let me know
if you need anything.

Thank you, sir. I'll be fine.

Um, okay.

Hey.

Are we outside?

I... I don't think so.

- Oh.
- Hey, the kids really miss you.

They, um,
they made you this card.

Oh.

Oliver drew a butt.

Yeah, I think that's supposed
to be a heart.

He's my fave.

Hey, um,
I'm glad you're doing better.

I'm sorry
for missing so much work.

No, please don't worry about it.
You had a terrible accident.

You know what's weird?

You came to visit me
before my boyfriend.

What are you talking about?
Sam just left.

- He did?
- Yeah.

Oh.

It's beautiful.

I love your cards.

I actually made it weeks ago
when you got in the accident.

I didn't know
if you were gonna make it
out of the coma,

so I left it blank.

I'm sorry.

For what?

- For almost dying.
- No, no, that's fine.

I mean, not like
"Oh, that's fine,
you almost died."

But like,
you know, "That's fine."
"That's cool."

I mean, it's not "cool,"
but you know, it's not like
not not cool.

Is everything okay?

Do you think everything's okay?

I think so?

Then, yeah, everything's okay.

Okay, um...

Let me know
if you need anything.

Thank you, sir. I'll be fine.

Um, okay.

Hey.

Wait, so that was Sam?

Yeah, yeah. That was Sam.

But that happened before this,
with the nurse. Didn't it?

-Uh...
-I feel like I'm caught
in a weird loop.

I feel like I'm caught
in a weird loop.

Yeah, I get that.

What's happening?

Well, I mean,
either you have one foot
in the world of the dead

and one in the world
of the living

and you're communicating with me
through some sort
of spirit realm,

and the accident has shaken
your temporal understanding
of time and space

and somehow given you
the ability to see things
in a non-linear fashion

- and that's all very...
- Disorienting?

Disorienting
but also exhilarating
and freeing,

or this is all
just some fever-dream,

morphine-drip head trauma
type of thing.

And are you gonna eat that
whole grilled cheese?

I need your help.

And I can't let you leave here
until you agree to help me.

- Help you what?
- I think you know what.

- No, I don't know...
- I need your help.

You've got to help me.

- What is this?
- Agree to help me.

-I can't let you leave
until you agree.
-I don't understand!

All right, let's try this again.

What were you doing
not wearing a seat belt, hmm?

Not thinking about me
or your sister,
I can tell you that.

This is the worst time.

Well, I'm sorry
I almost died at a bad time,

that was really selfish of me...

Wait,
do we have to do this again?

- Do what again?
- Where's Becca?

Isn't she
supposed to be telling me

how awesome physical therapy is?

She's in the hospital
cactus garden.

What is a hospital
cactus garden?

So, I ran into your doctor.

She said you can start
physical therapy tomorrow.

Everything is gonna be okay.
How awesome is that?

So we do have to do this again.

-Do what?
-You mentioned
we had a fight earlier.

What was it about?

- You don't remember?
- I mean, I remember I was right.

Okay, well, you weren't,
so it doesn't matter.

You can forget it.
We can just think of this
as a new start.

-Easy for me.

I'm so glad
you're getting better.

I wouldn't want my maid of honor
to be in a back brace.

I mean, what would that
look like?

I don't know,
maybe like I survived
a car crash,

and I'm lucky to be alive?

Okay. Don't do that.
You know I was kidding.

No, you weren't kidding.

I almost died.

And all you're worried about
is I'm pulling focus away

from your perfect
pretty princess engagement.

For once,
people are paying attention
to me and it's killing you.

For once? Alma, you are the one

that everyone
always pays attention to.

I ace the SATs,
and you drop out of college.

I win at the swim meet,
and no one cares
because you cut yourself...

-So much for a new start...
-I turn 21, you get busted
for buying pot.

-I was buying pot for you!
-And don't even get me started
on all your hearing stuff.

-All your special doctors
and your special classes!
-You think I wanted that?

I just wanted one year
that was about me,
and you ruined that.

I was in a fucking coma!

-Press the button.
-I tried that already.
It didn't work.

- Press it again.
- No, can't you see?

We're caught in a weird loop

and I'm trying
to get us out of it,
but I need to focus.

- Alma!
- Alma!

I gotcha. I gotcha.
Dad's gotcha.

I know this is overwhelming.
It's... It's all new to you.

Remember
when you got your implant

and you could hear
for the first time,

but your brain
couldn't process it,
couldn't make sense of it?

Yeah, it all sounded like bells,
and ducks and robots.

Right, well,
this is kinda like that.

You can communicate with me
because the car accident,
it kind of lifted the curtain.

And I need you to be able
to communicate with me.

But now we have to develop
your potential.

You know, this is kind of
a new way of "hearing."

Am I losing my mind,
like Geraldine?

No, no.

Uh, well, yes and no.

I mean, your grandmother,
she didn't lose her mind.

She just lost her way
back to reality.

You know,
the reality that you know,

well, that you knew,
that you still know,

and that you will continue
to know,

if we do this right.

-What are you talking about?
-Some people's minds
are more capable.

They can see more.
They can feel more.

They can know more, all right?

And your grandmother
was one of those people,
and you are too.

One of those people? You mean...

In indigenous cultures,
people who can see visions
and that hear voices,

-they're the shamans, you know,
they're the wise ones...
-Yeah, sure...

But in Western culture,
those people are locked up,

or they're put out
on the street.

-So...?
-So we need to carefully
develop your potential.

Or I'll be put out
on the street?

I don't know, Dad.

Okay. Again.

What were you doing
not wearing a seat belt, hmm?

Not thinking about me
or your sister,
I can tell you that.

This is the worst time...

-Where are you going?

I'll get you juice!

Okay. Come on, come on.

Okay. Okay.
None of this is real.

I'm the only one who's real.

I just need to focus.
Come on, just focus and wake up.

-Press the button.
-I tried that already.
It didn't work.

- Press it again.
- No, can't you see?

We're caught in a weird loop

and I'm trying
to get us out of it,
but I need to focus.

- Alma
- Alma!

Alma, wait!

- Alma!
- Alma!

Did you know
that the word "chocolate"

comes from our friends,
the Aztecs?

Did not know that, Beth,
but this one here
is a real beaut.

Fine form...
What the fuck was that?

Well, I don't know,

but if she was made of cake,
we got ourselves a winner!

Do you like it fast and lonely?
- No.

No. No, no, no.

No, no, no. I gotta get out.

- I've got to go.
- Hey, sit down. Sit down.

You were in an accident.
You're in the hospital.

No, no, no,
I'm not in the hospital.
I'm home.

I'm home.

I'm home,
and it's two weeks from now.

Becca! Get the nurse.

I'm in the kitchen with Sam.

And Jeff
is eating out of her bowl.

It's a beautiful night.

- I don't understand
what's going on.

Are you still mad at me?

No.

I just didn't understand
why you didn't tell me.

Okay. So you're not mad
at all anymore?

I'm not mad! I just...

have a headache.

- You're still getting headaches?
- It's no big deal.

I'm okay. Everything's okay.

No.

No, no, no, stay here.

Shit.

You're
pushing yourself too hard.
You're not ready.

What are you doing to me?

You're letting
the whole ocean in at once.

If you do that, you will go mad.

You need to let
a little bit of the ocean in
and keep your body in the boat.

Keep my body in the boat?

What you have is precious, Alma,

and that's why I caused
the accident.

You did?

I needed you to wake up.

'Cause I need your help.
You're the only one
who can help me.

Help you what?

That Halloween night
that I left you,

I wasn't in an accident.
I was killed.

And with your ability
to see what's really real,
we can change what happened.

But I need you to say yes.

I need you to agree.

Alma.

Where have you been?!

I was waiting, Dad told me...
Where's Dad?

Where have you been?
You scared us.

Listen,
there's been an accident.

What accident?
What are you talking about?
Where's Dad?

Alma. Please...

Stop crying!

Alma! Alma!

Dr. Forrest, dial 118, please.

- What were you...
- I'm sorry.

I'm sorry
I wasn't wearing a seat belt.

Sometimes,
I only think about myself

and not other people
I could hurt.

I'll get you some juice.

I ran into your doctor.

She said you can start
physical therapy tomorrow.

Everything is gonna be okay.
How awesome is that?

Really, really awesome.

- Shut up, it is awesome.
- I know! I'm being serious.

Oh.

Well, good,
because how would it look
if my maid of honor

had a back brace?

I mean, would we have to
get you like a special dress,
or something?

You know I didn't do this
on purpose, right?

I know.

I just need you to be there.

I can't have a wedding
and not have you there.

That's not the plan.

The plan is I get married,
and you're there.

And then I have kids,
and you're there.

And then my kids grow up,
and they get married,
and you're there.

I need you to always be there.

That's the plan.
That's always been the plan.

I can't do it
if you're not there.

Becca.

I'm so glad I didn't die,
so I could be part
of your wedding.

I'm really glad, too.

Hey, you wanna wear my socks?

No.

Okay.

Good job, kiddo.

What do you say?
Ready to go home?

What is it?

Come on. You can tell me.

You were supposed to be there.

That was the plan.

And I can't do it.

I can't do it if you're
not going to be there.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry
I wasn't there for you, my love.

But I'm here now.

And you're here.

I need your help,
so don't abandon me, Alma.

Don't abandon you?

I need you to make a choice.
And I need you to make it now.

- We can't move forward...
- What choice?

-I...
-I mean, you can choose
to tune all this out,

and you can go back to the life
you were living.

And just keep living it,
and living it, and living it.

Or you could try
something different.

A life that doesn't follow
a paint-by-numbers timeline.

Or any timeline at all.

A life
where anything can happen,
at any time.

A life without limitations.

Remember what you said
about silence
the first time you heard it?

I didn't know it sounded
so alive.

So, what's it gonna be?

She's awake.
