       slow, eerie music



     [woman] I'll never forget
          the day I heard

   their plane had gone missing.

I mean, that could have been me.

   Would you say you were close
       with any of the girls

           on the team?

        I would definitely
         not say that, no.

            Hell yeah.

I knew some of 'em pretty good
         back in the day.

   Not one of those girls gave a
good goddamn about trigonometry,

     I can tell you that much.

     soft, melancholy music

       So what do you think
    really happened out there?



        All I know is that
   what happened was a tragedy.

        A terrible tragedy.

I probably shouldn't say this,
              but...

      some of these kids, eh,

   no big loss, if we're honest.

   But those girls were special.

           They were...

             [inhales]

       They were champions.

    - pulsing, dramatic music
            -[cheering]

       [indistinct shouting]

       Allie! Allie, Allie!

             Come on.

            -[cheering]
             -Come on.

               Nice!

            [grunting]

          Ty! Over here!

            Ty! Inside!

       [indistinct shouting]

    Forward! Forward! Come on!

                Ty!

               -Ty!
             -Jackie!



             -[gasps]
            -[cheering]

         [whistle blowing]

            Good shot!

         [Jackie panting]

     [Jeff and Jackie chuckle]

        [panting, kissing]

     Today is the greatest

      Day I've ever known

    You look so hot right now.

        [chuckles, panting]

          -Uh... [hisses]
             -[grunts]

         -Uh, uh, careful.
             -[grunts]

         It's cool, babe.

          -I want you to.
        -[chuckles softly]

      W-We're gonna be late.

             [panting]

            It's fine.

              Relax.

             -[grunts]
            -[exhales]

             [panting]

             [moaning]

              Oh. Ah.

             [panting]

       God, you're amazing.

             [panting]

    I fucking love you, Jackie.

     Today is the greatest

             [panting]

     Today is the greatest

              - Day
       -[breathing heavily]

     - Today is the greatest
        -[chuckles softly]

        [whispering] Okay.

             My turn.

             [exhales]

        [inhales, exhales]

   Superman, you're an angel

       With wings of fire

            A flying,
       giant friction blast



             You walk
       in clouds of glitter

           And the sun
        reflects your eyes

         And every time

     The wind blows, I can

     - Smell you in the sky
          -[door closes]

   Your kisses are as wicked

           As an M-16

  And you fuck like a volcano

        And you're every

           - Informer
            -[giggles]

   -Were you listening to that?
         -No. No, it fell

        into the tape deck
and I accidentally pressed play.

       Say daddy me Snow me
    stab someone down the lane

    - A licky boom boom down
        -[exhales sharply]

            Informer

            I saw Jeff.

What happened to no distractions
         before nationals?

    "Ripping off the Band-Aid"

          -and all that?
            -[chuckles]

         I decided that...

showing up to college a virgin
           is a mistake.

            No offense.

        We've been together
         for so long that,

   if we're each other's first,
   then we'll be linked forever.

    It's more poetic that way.

       Oh. That reminds me--

I decided on a color palette for
our room at Rutgers next year.

          Pink and green.

     It's like classic preppy
         meets Palm Beach.

        It's very Lilly P.

      Licky boom boom down

      Wait, Jeff's a virgin?

     Well, we've been together
       since freshman year.

    Yeah, I know. It's just...

     you guys have broken up,
        like, 10,000 times.

    Never long enough to count.

          Are they think
       dem have more power

        De pon di phone

    The hell is this bullshit?

              -What?
          -These assholes

    were under .500 all season.

    Shauna, honk at that thing.

            -[honking]
   -No, they're just gonna think

       we're, like, saluting
        mediocre baseball.

         No, they'll know.

     -Try undefeated, bitches!
-[chuckles] Oh, my God, Jackie.

            We're going
    to motherfucking nationals!

            [whooping]

          [soft buzzing]

         [panting softly]

         [gasps, exhales]

         [moans, shudders]

             [exhales]

            -[panting]
         -[buzzing stops]

             [exhales]

            [sniffles]

       [cawing in distance]

             [exhales]

      [dog barks in distance]

             [Jessica]
              Aphids?

             Rabbits.

         [chuckles softly]

         Poor little guys.

                Mm.

Just trying to survive, I guess.

            I'm sorry,
      do we know each other?

   Jessica Roberts, Star-Ledger.

   I left you a few voice mails.

         Right. [exhales]
        Fuck off, Jessica.

        Shauna, wait. Wait,

        -wait, wait, wait.
    -I don't talk to reporters.

         But I'm guessing
      you already know that.

I know that you've been letting
   other people tell your story.

    People who barely knew you.

        And they are making
     a lot of money doing it.

           Five minutes.

     That's all I ask. If you
don't like what I have to say,

      I will leave you alone.

             Promise.

       -[freezer door opens]
            -[clinking]

             [Shauna]
   I know what you want to hear.

         But the truth is,

        the plane crashed,
    a bunch of my friends died

    and the rest of us starved
           and scavenged

     and prayed for 19 months,

    till they finally found us.

And that's the end of the story.

       I think we both know
           there's a...

     bit more to it than that.

   I can't imagine what you guys
      went through out there.

            Nobody can.

   And that is worth something.

    It's worth a lot, actually.

        I can guarantee you
    a seven-figure book advance

      right here, right now.

    We could write it together
but it's your name on the cover.

        Mm, not interested.

              Sorry.

        What if I told you
         the others were?

         Then I would say
        that you're lying.

    So you are still in touch.

I haven't spoken to any of them
             in years.

       I would not know how
       to get ahold of them

       even if I wanted to.

I moved on, and I genuinely hope

        that they were able
     to do the same. [exhales]

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm...

              Shauna,
     this is the kind of money

   that could change your life.

    You were an elite athlete.

           Straight A's.

     Early admission to Brown.

            Is this...

      really how you thought
   your life was gonna turn out?

       low, ominous music

              Sorry.

      I didn't mean to, uh...

        I don't give a shit
          what you meant,

      you smug little bitch.

You don't know a fucking thing
          about my life.



              Well...

    if you change your mind...

     Natalie, time for group.



         [snow crunching]

          [rope creaking]



            [counselor]
   Remember, anger can be good.

              [Wendy]
Tell that to my parole officer.

     I mean, all I'm saying is
    this bitch cut me in line.

     What am I supposed to do,
         just stand there?

      And then what happens?

     Everybody in Jamba Juice
    just starts getting on line

   wherever the hell they want.

       It's gonna be chaos.

            Pure chaos.

    How the hell am I supposed
        to pay for my shit?

   These are important feelings
       you're having, Wendy.

   -Thank you for sharing them.
      -Yeah. You're welcome.

   But, also, I need an answer.

    Because apparently slapping
          this numb cunt

       -was, uh, incorrect.
               -Mm.

   And also misdemeanor assault.

                Mm.

            It's true,
   violence is never the answer.

But that doesn't mean the anger
   you're feeling isn't useful.

You just have to find a way to--

    Keep the tiger in the cage.

             Natalie?

           Seeing as how
this is your last day with us,

   any final inspirations you'd
   like to pass on to the group?

        [inhales, exhales]

             Purpose.

          Find a purpose.

   I used to think all the drugs
         and the drinking

           and the sex,

    I used to think I did those
things because of... [inhales]

    ...what happened out there.

          What I... saw.

          What I... did.

              [girl]
   Oh, my God. What did you do?

   You literally never told us.

          Zip it, Ariana.

         [chuckles softly]

     But the real reason is...

           much simpler.

      After they rescued us,

               I...

              [gulps]

        I lost my purpose.

              And...

   ...thanks to my time here...

         ...I finally know
        how to get it back.

              [Rich]
         Oh, man, Natalie.

             [Natalie]
                Ugh.

           What is that?

   And here I thought jocks were
   supposed to be able to party.

            [coughing]

             -Eat me.
             -[groans]

            Oh, Jesus.

      Dude, this is terrible.

       Okay, you know what,
   you can both go suck a dick.

     -And just maybe we will.
         -[pager beeping]

    -Oh, shit, it's my cousin.
        -[car approaching]

     -Did he get us the stuff?
              -Yeah.

             -Tonight.
-[techno music playing on radio]

               [man]
           Hey! Burnout!

   -Show us your tits! [laughs]
             -[laughs]

    Oh, come on! Don't be shy!

           I mean, shit,
if you really want to see 'em.

               Oh...

             [groans]

            [chuckles]

              [Rich]
        The fuck, Natalie?

     He's gonna kick our ass,
            not yours!

      Only if they catch us.

             [panting]
             Come on!

         -[tires screech]
       -[school bell rings]

           Hey, yeah

     I want to shoop, baby

      Here I go, here I go,
         here I go again

    Girls, what's my weakness?
               Men

  Okay then, chillin', chillin',
       minding my business

    Yo, Salt, I looked around
   and I couldn't believe this

        I swear, I stared,
       my niece my witness

   The brother had it goin' on
    with somethin' kind of uh

         Wicked, wicked,
          had to kick it

           I'm not shy
    so I asked for the digits

  A ho? No, that don't make me

         See what I want
     slip slide to it swifty

         [girls laughing]

             [Jackie]
              Allie.

          You all right?

      It's just a pep rally.

         Honestly, I think
the whole point is just to give

        freshmen something
       to jerk off to later.

             [Lottie]
              Jackie,

      Coach wants to see you
          in his office.

         I'm not nervous.

       I'm the only freshman
     who got asked, you know.

              I know.

          It's so unfair.

My dress was gonna be amazing.

        Well, hey, at least
    you can wear it next year.

      You don't get it, Van,
     'cause nobody asked you.

        Okay, you're done.

           Jesus Christ.

            -[chuckles]
             -[snorts]

         Does someone want
      to tell Kelly Kapowski

to maybe worry less about prom

   and more about not fucking up
            nationals?

           Oh, come on.

     If she plays like she did
           at states...

        Yeah, don't worry.

     That's not gonna happen.

       I'm gonna talk to you
          like an adult.

      Is that okay with you?

Do you have any idea why I made
    you team captain this year?

Now, obviously, it's not because
      you're our best player.

         Shauna's faster.

   Lottie's got better footwork
            by a mile.

         And Taissa, now--

        Is this a pep talk?

              Jackie,

       you possess something
   no one else on this team has:

            influence.

When things get tough out there,

    those girls are gonna need
      someone to guide them.

       Can you handle that?

            All right,
    let's hear it for the boys!

    Let's give the boys a hand!

       [scattered applause]

           Thanks, guys.

        You did your best.

      Now, our next act needs
         no introduction.

           So let's all
       just make some noise

     for your New Jersey State

              [host]
      Parts of this 1667 epic

were dictated to family members
           by its author.

           What are you?

               I am

          -Paradise Lost.
              -[ding]

            Yes. Linda.

              [Linda]
       I am The Great Gatsby.

              -[buzz]
      -[host] Ooh, I'm sorry.

    The answer we're looking for
         is Paradise Lost.

            -[applause]
    -Aw, Linda. You dumb bitch.

           And with that,
        we'll be right back.

         I'm Taissa Turner.

       And as state senator,

   I want to lead New Jersey out
         of the wilderness

              and back
     to the economic prosperity

          we all deserve.

         I'm Taissa Turner,
           and I approve

           -this message.
              -Shit.

      [announcer] Paid for by
Taissa Turner for State Senator.

           Just breathe.

    We want natural. We want...

            -Kennedys.
   -[quietly] I'm about to drive

     this boy off a bridge, so
I must be doing something right.

    Can we just have a minute?

              -Sure.
            -[exhales]

         -[clicks tongue]
         -[Biscuit whines]

              [sighs]
      Told you I was terrible

             -at this.
            -[chuckles]

        You're doing great.

             -Really.
    -I want to play in my room.

Um, just a little while longer,
             hotshot.

        We're almost done.

               -Hey.
            -[exhales]

         This is a profile
        in Jersey Monthly,

        not Italian Vogue.

    You just need to loosen up.

    What can I do to help, hmm?

     -Want a shot of tequila?
       -[exhales, chuckles]

     Want a... want a quickie

         -in the bathroom?
            -[chuckles]

            -[shushing]
            -[laughing]

            [laughing]

That is what I'm talking about,
              ladies.

             Perfect.

        I just have to say,

    you are a real inspiration.

         After everything
      that you went through.

    I mean, it gives me chills.

      Not that I believe any
of those nasty stories, but...

         now look at you.

     You're the queer Kamala.

            Thank you.

   But... I really just want to
focus on our collective future,

           not my past.

          [photographer]
        Ooh, a sound bite.

            I love it.

             [inhales]

           Are you okay?

             I'm fine.

           It seems like
       you don't even care.

       -Are you kidding me?
       -[school bell rings]

     You're being insensitive.

   This is what we've worked for
            all season.

      You really want to take
           that chance?

       Yeah. 'Cause I'm not
        a fucking asshole.

What are you guys talking about?

             [inhales]
              Allie.

             [exhales]

             [Shauna]
          What about her?

   Did you black out at states?
        She totally choked.

      -She's a freshman, Ty.
        -She's a liability.

     So what do you want to do
             about it?

        She can't screw up
   if she doesn't get the ball.

    You want to freeze her out?

        At least we'd know
     what we're working with.

     She kind of sucks, but...

           I don't know.

   That's because it's bullshit.

             Oh, yeah?

      What's your plan, then?

           I don't know.

     Play like a fucking team
             and win?

        It's worked so far.

         Everything works
         until it doesn't.

        And for the record,

      you smell like a wino.

      Get your shit together.

             [inhales]
          You know what?

            Fuck this.

            Wow. Okay.

        Doesn't feel right.

    Jackie's not gonna like it.

              Then we
   probably shouldn't tell her.

  women vocalize percussively

    pulsing, dramatic music



          [whistle blows]

      All right. Bring it in.
       Take a knee, ladies.

     What's up, state champs?

            [whooping]

Okay, so JV is gonna help us out
with a little scrimmage today.

      Uh, Coach Martinez had
to take care of a family thing,

     so, JV, you're gonna grab
        a pinny from Misty

      and let's get started.

            [Laura Lee]
    Uh, excuse me, Coach Scott.

Shouldn't we say a prayer first?

     [chuckles] Uh, it's just
      a scrimmage, Laura Lee.

          [clears throat]
          But, uh, sure.

    -Yeah. Knock yourself out.
        -[Laura Lee] 'Kay.

        [inhales, exhales]

         Heavenly Father,

let our efforts remain fruitful,

      so that we may perform
     in ways glorious to You.

       In Your name we pray.

              -Amen.
          -[others] Amen!

               [Ben]
       All right. Let's go.

     tense, dramatic music

               Nat!

              women
     vocalizing dramatically

         [blowing whistle]

       [Ben] Come on, Allie.
    That should've been yours.

      I want to switch sides.

         -I'll take Allie.
              -Okay.

   All right! Let's go, Varsity!

           Taissa wants
      to see you step it up.

        And, quite frankly,
       that makes two of us.

      Let's see some hustle!

          [blows whistle]



         [grunts, panting]

              -What--
        -This is the game.

           -Step it up.
         -[whistle blows]

      -It's not helping, Ty.
   -If we can't freeze her out,

     she's gonna have to learn
      to play under pressure.

  women vocalizing menacingly



            -[grunting]
              -Allie!

             Finally.

              Shauna!



             -[grunts]
             -[crying]

         [yelps, gasping]

            [screaming]

             [gasping]

       Did you see her leg?

            -Holy shit.
           -Oh, my God.

               Damn.

            Holy fuck.

               Help!
             [gasping]

       Okay. Apply pressure
         to stop the bl--

            -[screams]
          -Jesus, Misty!

   -Get the fuck out of the way!
            -[wailing]

   We need an ambulance! There's
     a phone in Bill's office!

     You mean Coach Martinez?

       Christ! Yes! Go! Now!

         -[Allie gasping]
      -[overlapping chatter]

       Okay, keep her calm.
          Don't move her.

        Stop moving, okay?

       [overlapping chatter]

           You're okay.
Look at me. Just breathe, okay?

   Hand? Here, squeeze my hand.

    -You're fine, you're fine.
     -[Allie breathing deeply]

          [water running]

       [water stops running]

       [locker door closes]

I know we're all really worried
           about Allie.

              But...

      it might not be as bad
           as it looks.

You could see her fucking bones,
              Jackie.

          I'm pretty sure
it's exactly as bad as it looks.

   Oh, God. I'm gonna throw up.

       Okay, but, I mean...
             [exhales]

      ...we're still a team.

   And we still have each other.

        And the Lord works
        in mysterious ways.

            [loud slam]

             [Natalie]
        Nice work, Taissa.

              [sighs]

            -[chopping]
           -[door opens]

       -Callie, is that you?
          -[door closes]

         [Callie] No. It's
   a marauding pack of thieves.

       We've come to burgle
     your 12-year-old desktop

-and all your ceramic bunnies.
        -[chuckles softly]

       [sent message chime]

          How was school?

              -Fine.
             -"Fine."

   Is Mrs. Mendez gonna let you
       retake the trig test?

               Yeah.

            -Probably.
       -[sent message chime]

         Is there any way

      you could put the phone
             down for,

I don't know, 90 seconds and try

   to have something resembling
    a meaningful conversation?

              [sighs]

            Thank you.

     So, I'm making meatloaf.

    This already does not seem
like a meaningful conversation.

     I just figured we've been
   on such a chicken kick lately

      and why not mix it up?

         Okay, seriously,
if this feels meaningful to you,

I really think you need to take
a good, hard look at your life.

I can't stay for dinner anyway.
         We're going out.

            Oh, really?

Well, I thought that you and I
      could hang out tonight.

      Like, watch a movie...

               Mom,

        it's Friday night.

              Right.

    Is Dad working late again?

             Um, yeah.
He's, you know, having problems

   with the inventory database,
               so...

            -I'm sorry.
       -[door opens, closes]

              [Kyle]
       Yo. You ready to go?

        -What's up, Mrs. S?
            -Hi, Kyle.

   Oh, we're doing this. O-Okay.

   You're looking fine tonight.

        Thanks. Um... Okay.

    So, home by 11:00, please.

         That's bullshit.

               Fine.

             Midnight.

            -Love you!
             -[groans]

            -Love you.
      -[Kyle chuckles softly]

              [sighs]

           [door opens]

             [Jackie]
         It's just a party.

        I don't know. It...

      feels weird to just go
      like nothing happened.

      It's not like skipping
            the party's

    gonna un-fuck Allie's leg.

       Plus, it's tradition.

            [chuckles]
            Oh, my God.

    You remember when you tried
        to become Catholic?

        I liked the saints.

     -They were all so tragic.
               -Hmm.

              Mm-mm.

             You know,

         Randy's gonna be
       at the party tonight.

               Um...

               Okay.

             [exhales]

          Definitely not.

      He asked Jeff to ask me
    if you were gonna be there.

              Randy?

             -Really?
              -What?

   I just thought you'd want to
know somebody asked about you.

     Started the song, yeah

        Now, wouldn't that
          be something?

              Shauna,

      just wear the red dress
    I gave you. The boob dress.

        Maybe I don't want
      to wear the red dress.

        And I sure as hell
       don't want to hook up

     with Randy fucking Walsh.

Jesus, what crawled up your ass?

      Wear whatever you want.

              Thanks.

              I will.

             [exhales]

             [inhales]

     You're probably right
        about Randy anyway.

   I once saw him get outsmarted
         by an escalator.

                Mm.

       I once heard him ask
      who invented the Pope.

             [laughs]

       Let me find out what
you're thinking, watch it now

    Everybody say you're wack
     but you think you're hot

    Player hatin' on the floor
    'cause you're on the spot

         Let me find out,
         let me find out

         Let me find out
   that you ain't got no class

  Always tricking on the honeys
      when you want some ass

    Forever riding in my car,
       never paying for gas

         Let me find out,
         let me find out

    Let me see, the only thing
       you got is your crew

      And from what I hear,
        you're out of here

    They don't even like you

       [cheering, whooping]

       - 'Cause you waited
           - Time's up

   You're running out of luck

        And you need it

           Set us up

     It's there succeeding

     -[song continues playing]
       -[indistinct chatter]

        That was hilarious.

          It was so good.

    You remember that, Shauna?

              Do you?

         Oh. Give me some.

               Hey.

          Mm-hmm. Uh-huh.

           -No. Jackie.
             -Mm-hmm.

    What am I doing here again?

            [chuckles]

        You guys, my cousin
      hooked us up. [exhales]

            You got it?

      Got six words for you,
            my friend.

       Lucy... in the Sky...

          with Diamonds.

     That is, like, the least
    efficient way to say that.

     Dude, don't you go to the
Olympics or whatever tomorrow?

               Yeah.

               I do.

     I am the girl you know

   Can't look you in the eye

     I am the girl you know

      So sick I cannot try

             [driver]
             Where to?

            You pick up
       a lot of people here?

           -A few, sure.
        -[chuckles softly]

How many go straight to a bar?

     You want to go to a bar?

               LAX.

      I'm catching a red-eye.

       [indistinct chatter]

         I'm Miss World

         [girls laughing]

        Somebody kill me

         Kill me pills

          No one cares

           My friends



           My friends

       Randy! Randy! Randy!

           Randy! Randy!

             [groans]

     [belches loudly, grunts]

     [exhales] I dedicate that
        to you, sexy lady.

        -[hisses, chuckles]
            -[laughing]

             Oh, God.
         [burping, grunts]

    Is listening, my friends

        I've made my bed

         I'll lie in it

   I admire your resilience, Ty.

      I've made my bed...

          Can't be easy,

            knowing you
fucking crippled someone today.

         Cool. Good talk.

            Just admit
      you did it on purpose.

            -Excuse me?
          -You heard me.

          You're wasted.

-And you're a fucking sociopath.
           -[Van] Whoa!

            -Calm down.
      -No! Listen, you guys,

      we don't have to worry
about the Allie problem anymore

-because Taissa fixed it for us.
        -[Laura Lee] What?

     What's she talking about?

           She's talking
    about Taissa's little plan.

      Oh, please. Since when
    do you give a shit anyway?

   Don't you have a bong to hit
             or a dick

             -to suck?
   -Don't talk to her that way.

       Oh, fuck off, Shauna.

I don't need you to defend me.

       Last time I checked,
   you were fine with the whole

    -"freeze her out" strategy.
         -Okay, seriously,

   -what are you talking about?
        -Shut the fuck up,

            -Laura Lee!
       -No, no, no, stop it.

      Somebody needs to take

       her wasted ass home.

      Say that again, bitch.
          Say that again.

      -I-I will say it again!
      -[overlapping shouting]

            Cat fight!

       -[shouting continues]
            -Cat fight!

            That's it!

              Enough!

     My bed, I'll die in it

        I've made my bed,
           I'll lie...

          Yellowjackets,

             with me!

               Now!

         [boys chuckling]

       [indistinct chatter]

            [owl hoots]

           I don't know
      what the fuck that was,

   but I do know that it's over.

We're about to go to nationals.

         And based on what
     I'm looking at right now,

we might as well not even bother
      getting on that plane.

            All right.

        Everybody line up.

     No, I'm fucking serious.
             Line up!

             Come on!

    Here's what we're gonna do.

        I want each of you
       to go down this line

   and say one nice, true thing

      about every other girl
           on this team.

           What is this,
     fucking Girl Scout camp?

        [snorts, chuckles]

      Who wants to go first?

         I'll go, Jackie.

              Taissa,

         you are beautiful
     in the eyes of our Lord.

                Mm.

               Van,

       -you are beautiful--
           -Oh, my God!

             [Jackie]
         Okay, Laura Lee,

            fall back.

             [exhales]
               Fuck.

             [inhales]

               Okay.

          I'll go first.

          Taissa Turner,

    you have more fight in you
   than anyone I've ever known.

           I'm inspired
      by your determination.

         [chuckles softly]

          Vanessa Palmer.

            [chuckles]
            Your smile

        makes me feel happy
       every time I see it.

            Laura Lee,

    I truly admire your faith.

         [chuckles softly]

               Nat,

    I love that you don't care
       what anybody thinks.

            And you're
      so completely yourself.

-She's also deadly at beer pong.
           -[chuckling]

       So, go on. Tell her.

          -Come on, guys.
             -[sighs]

            Laura Lee,

     you have very shiny hair.

          Thank you, Van.

              Lottie,

    you never talk shit unless
    someone really deserves it.

               Also,

     I like your Pilgrim hat.

         [chuckles softly]

            I'm sorry,

      for what I said before,

            about you--

        I didn't, you know,
         mean to hurt her.

               Okay.

                Hi.

                Hi.

         Are-are we cool?

           I don't know.

         You haven't said
    anything nice about me yet.

               Okay.

          Shauna Shipman.

            [chuckles]

            You are...

         a terrible dancer

      and you have seriously
questionable taste in music...

    [chuckles] ...and you can't
         hold your liquor

            -for shit.
            -[chuckles]

            [chuckling]

      But you're the only one
who's always been there for me.

      You're the best friend
          I've ever had.

       You know that, right?

               Yeah.

             -I know.
              -Okay.

        Let's get you home.

        I lost my heart

       - Under the bridge
       -[dialogue inaudible]

      To that little girl

         So much to me

         And now I moan

        And now I holler

       She'll never know

       Just what I found

     Little fish, big fish

     Swimming in the water

              Misty?

       Gimme my daughter

     Little fish, big fish

     Swimming in the water

      Come back here, man

       Gimme my daughter

     Little fish, big fish

     Swimming in the water

      Come back here, man

       Gimme my daughter

     Little fish, big fish

     Swimming in the water

         Come back here

       soft, gentle music

      Turn on Port Monmouth.

           It's faster.

   Shauna's house is on the way.

     Come on. I'm past curfew.

I have a curfew, too, you know.

             [Jackie]
       Yeah, but... [scoffs]

            ...you know
     what my parents are like.



             Love you.



         Jeff, pull over.

        Are you gonna puke?

    Pl-- Don't puke in my car,
              Shauna.

          Just pull over.

        [shuts off engine]

           [owl hooting]

       quiet, tense music



            Whoa, hey.

         Hey, I-I thought
   we weren't doing this again.

            We're not.

              Again.

             [panting]



             [moaning]

             [panting]

      If you come inside me,

     I will raise the baby out
             of spite

           and train it
    to become a killing machine

that eventually hunts you down.

              Got it?
              [pants]

              [pants]
              Uh-huh.

               Okay.

        [panting, moaning]

       Tell me you love me.

             [panting]

   I won't hold you to it, okay?

             [panting]
           Just say it.

        I love you, Shauna.

              [pants]
           Say it again.

            -[panting]
       -I love you, Shauna.

             [moaning]

             [panting]



             [crunch]

        [insects trilling]

      pulsing, tense music



       [water stops running]



             [beeping]

             [dialing]

         We need to talk.

      "Never Tear Us Apart"
         by Paloma Faith



          Don't ask me

     What you know is true

     Don't have to tell you

  I love your precious heart

               I

         I was standing

         You were there

      Two worlds collided

             And they
    could never tear us apart



         We could live

      For a thousand years

       But if I hurt you

          I'd make wine
         from your tears

               Mom.

           I told you

               Mom.

       That we could fly

               Mom!

    -'Cause we all have wings
            -[groaning]

             Come on.

          But some of us
          don't know why

            [squeaking]

         I was standing

         You were there

     Just let me find my keys.

       I already got a ride.

             Love you.

   Remember, the most important
       thing is to have fun.

             Love you.

         Tear us apart



               I

          Don't ask me

         I was standing

     What you know is true

         You were there

        Worlds collided

      Two worlds collided

     We're shining through

          And they could
       never tear us apart

              You

          Don't ask me

       You were standing

     What you know is true

          - I was there
        - Worlds collided

      Two worlds collided

     We're shining through

      And they could never

              Ever

     Ever tear us apart...

Here, I'll give you guys a hand.

        [whispers] Wicked.

             [laughs]

   I can't believe your dad paid
       for a private plane.

         It's pretty much
    his only form of parenting.

       I guess I'll take it.

         Well, thank you,

     -Mr. Matthews! [giggles]
          -Mr. Matthews!

          [soft chatter]

              [Mari]
       Whoa, whoa, hey, JV.

       Didn't they tell you?
New blood's got to earn a seat.

-Oh, I-I thought that I could--
               -No,

    I'm 100% messing with you.
             [laughs]

            -[chuckles]
             -You want

      some Fruit by the Foot?
          I've got, like,

          -a mile of it.
            -[chuckles]

          Hey, hey, hey.
        Not so fast, girls.

       [indistinct chatter]

              -Javi.
              -Yeah.

          For your ears.

        Nuh-uh, buttmunch.
         Get out of here.

              [Bill]
       All right, hustle up.

   It's gonna be a long flight.

       -This is your captain.
            -[exhales]

     Our flight plan to Seattle
            has us going

   -a little bit farther north...
               -Hey.

         -...than expected.
            -You okay?

              -Yeah.
     -We're gonna try to avoid

a storm system that's coming in.

-Should get some great views...
            -[exhales]

    ...of the Canadian Rockies.

      Remember when you came
      to Hilton Head with us

          in second grade

and you cried the whole flight?

            [chuckles]

    Sit back, enjoy the flight.

               Here.

           Swiped these
from my mom's medicine cabinet.

              Valium.

         She's got, like,
      a never-ending supply,

so I doubt she'll even notice.

              I know.

      I'm basically the best.

             And here.

      It's a good luck charm.

    Now nothing can touch you.

         [chuckles softly]

     soft, melancholy music



         [girls laughing]

        [plane taking off]

       [distorted whooping]

        [distorted chatter]

   [girls chattering, chuckling]

      [footsteps approaching]

          Sorry I'm late.

A reporter approached me today.

             She said
   she was with the local paper,

         but I googled her

      and she wasn't credited
     in any bylines anywhere.

       These people come out
of the woodwork every few years,

on some anniversary or another.

          You know that.

    There's no reason to think
      this is any different.

       I can think of a few.

            We agreed.

   Say no more than we have to,

    stay out of the public eye.

              Shauna.

I saw you on fucking television,
                Ty.

       If someone's digging,

        we are all fucked.

         Take care of it.

            Thank you.

      Have you talked to Nat?

          She's in rehab.

              Again.

       And there's still...

      -no sign of the others?
               -No.

          Not for months.

               Okay.

         Then we're fine.

         So long as nobody
      does anything crazy...

we have nothing to worry about.

             [exhales]

      gentle, somber music



             [exhales]

               [man]
            Nice ride.

             I'm Dave.

           The manager.

             Hi, Dave.

      I'm sorry. It's just...

    Haven't seen anyone around
this unit since I've been here.

Vultures have been circling it
            for years,

      but I keep telling 'em,

    -"Long as the bill's paid."
        -[chuckles softly]

            You local?

               Was.

Been a while since I've been...

               home.

        Then welcome back.
         [chuckles softly]

              Thanks.

           I wasn't sure
       how I'd feel, but...

    I think it'll be good to...

reconnect with some old friends.

  slow, suspenseful music

            [sizzling]



  women vocalizing hauntingly

   dramatic, percussive music

             [exhales]

   Happy Friday, Mrs. DeGenaro.

         [pills rattling]

        Time for your meds.
         [chuckles softly]

    We been a good girl today?

                Mm.

Still on a hunger strike, I see.

You know, you're never gonna get
       your strength back up

         if you don't eat.

              Gloria.

   Did we have another accident?

              [sighs]

I have told you, you just have
        to press the button

      and someone will come.
            [chuckles]

             [quietly]
   I just changed those sheets.

           [clattering]

         [chuckles softly]

             You know,

       I think the morphine
might be upsetting your tummy.

[whispers] Let's skip this dose.

             [Gloria]
         [quietly] Mm-mm.

        Don't fuck with me.

         [whimpers softly]

        [insects trilling]

       Happy Friday, ladies!

            Hey, Misty.

      soft, haunting music



          [alarm chirps]

           [door opens]







         [girls screaming]

[distorted screaming, shouting]

     The Lord is my shepherd.

          And even though

   -I walk through the valley...
     -[engine whining loudly]

             [screams]

       soft, gentle music



      [engine whining loudly]

    pulsing, dramatic music
