Yellowjackets (2021–…): Season 1, Episode 3 - Episode #1.3 - full transcript

Previously, on
"Yellowjackets"

Twenty-two out.
Speed brake!

Ah, fuck.

Who taught you how to drive?

You are so mad
and yet so wrong.

Are you trying to be
adorable with me?

Does that usually work for you?

- I'm Adam.
- Shauna.

- Is Dad working late again?
- Yeah.

He's, you know, having problems
with the inventory database.

Marriage lives up here,
dies down here.



I'm gonna take a quick shower.

His teacher's concerned.

She says he's having
a hard time making friends.

- Why did you do this?
- So she can't see me.

- The lady in the tree.
- Sammy.

Sammy, Sammy, Sammy.

Hello, Misty.

- You crazy fucking bitch.
- Hey, Nat.

What does the person
who sent these postcards want?

Obviously a threat.

Maybe somebody talked.

You found Travis?

Talk about someone
who didn't want to be found.

Engine trouble?



I was actually thinking
of taking a little trip

up north to see Travis.

Gentle vocalizing...

Before we took off,
I heard Rachel say that she was

going to see Oasis
at the Meadowlands next month.

She was really excited.

And she's never gonna hear
"Wonderwall" again.

Come on.

Let's join hands.

We'll pray for them.

Rachel, you just
moved up from JV,

so we didn't really know you.

But, in Trig,

you never confused
your secants and your cosecants.

You seemed really smart.

Anyone else?

I saw her carry
a flute case once.

Oh, Lord, please accept
Rachel Goldman into your arms

so that she may fill
your kingdom with music.

Please accept Coach Martinez
into your glory, too,

and flight attendant Janet,
pilot Robert, pilot Fred.

Even though I walk through the
valley of the shadow of death...

Take me to your kingdom, Father.

Reunite me with your love.

Send me your Spirit.

Oh.
Don't be frightened, Tai-Tai.

Come, sit with your Nana.

All these beeps and...

and whooshes sound scary,
don't they?

Are you gonna die?

Dying is nothing
to be afraid of.

The Lord gives us our time here,

then he calls us back.

Back to where?

To him.

To heaven.

With the angels?

With the angels.

The Lord is my salvation.

Whom shall I fear?

The Lord is my strength.

Whom shall I fear?

I'm going for a walk.

What do we
really know about Taissa Turner?

She claims to put
education first,

but has she been honest
about how?

The only real way is by
cannibalizing your tax dollars.

Paid for by Phil Bathurst.

- Is he fucking serious?
- Ah.

Bathurst is a Mitch McConnell
wannabe no one cares about.

People listen
to this shit, Simone.

Yeah, well, have some faith

your constituents
are smarter than that.

I bet if I dug around
in his past,

I'd find his family
owned a slave or two.

Put that in an ad.

What did you say
when you started this campaign?

Hmm?

That you'd focus on the issues

and make rational arguments
for change.

Appealing to voters' rage and
fear was never part of the plan,

so why you letting
this guy change that?

Biscuit has to go to the park.

Okay, baby.

Go get your jacket.

Come on, Biscuit.

Hey, it's the weekend.

Go enjoy your son.

I added a little more celery
this time.

Guy at Planet Fitness swears

it's good
for your blood pressure.

You want some?

Oh, no, thanks.
I like my blood pressure high.

If you want your heart rate up,
just say the word.

Yeah.

So, I almost forgot,

I have to take the van in this
afternoon to fix the bumper.

You think you can
swing by the mechanic's

and-and pick me up
around... four?

Uh...

Roger is, uh, out today,
and we're expecting a delivery.

- Can't you take an Uber?
- Mm.

If you want us
to spend 60 bucks.

It's at Fairview and DeVine.

Why is it all the way
over there?

It's where I got the best deal.

I'm sorry, babe. I really can't.

My boys need me
at the store today.

You know I like to lead
from the front.

You should've told me yesterday.

I should've told you.

- See you later, okay?
- Buh-bye.

I found out later that he was

stealing office supplies
from his job.

And I'm not talking about
just, like, staplers.

And then there was hiking guy,
and he seemed pretty normal,

but afterwards he asked me
for my socks.

And he still never called.

Um...

"Mr. Mistoffelees" playing
over speakers...

What about you? Are you, uh,
are you dating anyone?

How long till, uh,
we get to Travis's?

Uh, three hours and 24 minutes.

I-I totally get it.

You know, not dating anyone
right now.

At our age, it's like
all the available ones

are basically crumbs
at the bottom of a chip bag.

Oh.

Mostly.

Got a whole chip?

Just a friend.

For now.

♪ Oh, well, I never ♪

♪ Was there ever
a cat so clever... ♪

I'm starving.

You want to go grab something
while I gas up?

Oh. Well, I don't know
what you like.

Maybe
you should come with me.

Chocolate's good.

Um, well, there's dark
and milk and white.

Surprise me.

Okay.

"Okay."

Fucking knew it.

Chocolate.

- What?
- Jerky? Really?

- This is all we have?
- Yeah.

We got to ration.

- Okay. Cut them.
- Yeah.

Split this water.

Here.

Close your eyes
and pretend it's bacon.

Don't spill any.

Hey, Misty said don't scratch.

It can get infected.

If poison ivy's what kills me
out here, then I deserve to die.

So just careful with it.

Dude!

Hey!

Travis, what are you doing?

- Uh...
- What the hell?

Maybe you didn't notice,

but we're kind of
in a situation here, Flex.

Don't.

Who died and made him
king of snacks?

His dad, Lottie.

Literally his fucking dad.

Nat's right.

We should cut him some slack.

I guess it's fine
if we all starve to death,

as long as Travis's feelings
are okay.

We're not gonna starve to death.

Okay? When the rescue team
gets here...

If it gets here.

Don't say that.

I mean, it has been three days.

They're coming.

They're coming.

Eat.

Eat.

Can you throw
that shit out already?

Dad gave it to me
so my ears wouldn't pop.

Well, are they still
popping, Javi?

Are they?

Open up the hatch.

Misty, just, can you just...

I told you, I'm not hungry.

Oh, no, it's okay.

I stole from the food stash.

Yeah, well, I didn't ask you
to do that.

Well, you haven't eaten
in two days,

and I can't give you any more
of these on an empty stomach.

Come on. Come on.

Huh?

Yeah.

Guys!

Guys, there's a lake.
There's a lake.

I saw it from that hill.

It looks about
four or five miles away.

Do you think we could hike it?

It's pretty rocky, but yeah.

Uh, we, uh, we can't...
we can't just leave.

We've got
two days of water, tops.

And then what?
Just sit around and die?

What if the rescue team comes?

Do you think they're taking
their time on purpose?

If they knew where we were,
they would be here already.

You don't know that.

What do you think, Coach?

I don't, I don't know.

Uh, I mean,
you'd have to leave me behind,

I guess, but whatever.

We could make you a stretcher.

Oh, okay.

Seriously. If we take turns
carrying it...

N-No.

This-this is bullshit.

I say no. Okay?

No way.

Let's put it to a vote.

All in favor of waiting here?

vocalizing...

All in favor of the lake?

Then it's settled.
Grab your shit.

You want some?

Your backwash?

I'll pass.

Hey.

Thanks for having my back
during the vote.

I didn't have your back.
It was just what I thought.

Well, either way,
it was the right call.

You don't know that.

I mean, we think
we know what we're doing,

but really we have no clue.

"Cambodia" by Kim Wilde

Well, he was Thailand-based,
she was an Air Force wife

He used to fly weekends,
it was the easy life

But then it turned around
and he began to change

She didn't wonder then

She didn't think
it's strange

But then he got a call,
he had to leave that night

He couldn't say too much,
but it would be all right

He didn't need to pack

They'd meet the next night

He had a job to do

Flying to Cambodia

vocalizing

Shit.

And as the nights passed by

She tried to trace the past

The way he used to look,
the way he used to laugh

I guess she'll never know
what got inside his soul

She couldn't make it out

Just couldn't take it all

He had the saddest eyes

The girl had ever seen

He used to cry some nights
as though he lived a dream

Shit. Sorry. Sorry.

And as she held him close,
he used to search her face

As though she knew the truth

Lost inside Cambodia

vocalizing

But there is
only one thing left

I know for sure

She won't see his face again

What's that smell?

I don't know.

Holy shit.

Oh, God, I'm gonna puke.

Whoa. Sick.

What could've done that?

A wolf, probably.

- They can kill a fucking bear?
- Yeah.

Wolves can kill anything
if the pack's big enough.

Let's keep moving.

- It's about time.
- Sorry.

Been busy.

Yeah, busy cashing my checks.

Hey, this hasn't been easy.

Some of you guys just love
living off the grid.

But so far, nobody's talked.

How hard are you pushing?

Money, book deals.

If you want me busting kneecaps,
it's gonna cost extra.

Just hurry up and try the rest.

Phil's ad is tanking my numbers.

If there's an October surprise
coming, I'm fucked.

So you want to hit back?

Meaning?

Bathurst's daughter is a junkie.

You got proof?

Three rehab stints
before the age of 16.

Last year, he buried an arrest
for heroin possession

so she wouldn't get expelled
from Blair.

How old is she now?

Eighteen. Fair game.

Oh, shit. I got to go.

What happened?

- Sammy, did you do this?
- Yes.

Honey, are you okay?

I'm so sorry.

I guess they were playing rough,

and my son's elbow
whacked him in the face.

Hey. You okay?

Yeah, let's go.

It wasn't that big a deal.

Sammy punched him in the face.

Yeah, well,
hearing his mom called names

brings it out in him, I guess.

Luckily, he thought the boy
was saying I was a "cannonball."

He probably heard his parents

talking about Bathurst's ad.

God, Monni.

This could be our new normal
if I don't hit back.

What?

Our son just assaulted
another child,

and you're talking strategy?

You're right.

Okay.

Baby, we need to talk about
why you hit that boy today.

No.

Yes.

You don't hit people,
no matter what they say to you.

Be quiet.

What did you just say?

Okay, that's it.

Give him back.

Give... him... back.

Go to your room, Sammy.

Go!

This shit is
way longer than four miles.

What if we missed it?

From the angle of the sun, it
looked just left of due north.

Oh, great.

"Left." That's a precise way
of doing it.

I'm not a fucking cartographer.

Or maybe you saw a mirage.

Oh, shit.

Oh, hell yeah, bitches!

- Come on, let's go!
- Yeah!

"Dreams" by The Cranberries...

♪ Oh, my life ♪

♪ Is changing every day... ♪

Guys, come in!

It feels fucking great!

Fuck, it's freezing!

Oh, my God.

♪ And, oh, my dreams ♪

♪ It's never quite as it seems ♪

♪ Never quite as it seems... ♪

Oh, fuck, it's freezing.

♪ I know I've felt like
this before ♪

Asshole!

♪ But now I'm feeling it
even more ♪

♪ Because it came from you... ♪

Is Travis actually

hot?

- ♪ A totally amazing mind... ♪
- It's been three days.

You guys can't be
that desperate.

♪ And so kind ♪

♪ You're everything to me ♪

You should've brought
your rifle.

What? We haven't seen Travis
in like 25 years.

He moved out to the sticks,
he changed his name.

It's got Unabomber
written all over it.

I don't see a car.

We could go back into town,
check it out,

get some wings, come back later.

Or that works, too.

Are you sure
this is a good idea?

I mean, what if
the, uh, neighbors see?

Yikes.

Someone could use a trip
to Tuesday Morning.

You know, it's never a good sign

when a suspect
lives like a hermit.

We see this kind of thing
all the time.

Aren't you a nurse?

It is common knowledge that

the less a suspect owns, the
creepier they turn out to be.

There was this one guy,
Mike McGreevy,

aka the Gibbsboro Ghoul.

He owned barely anything.

Turns out he was robbing graves

because he was
collecting teeth to make...

Hey, can you look in the trash?

- I saw a can back there.
- Oh, that's a really good idea.

You know, you can learn
so much about a person

by going through
their personal refuse.

Hi.

Thought I'd bring
the lake to you.

Here, take your shirt off.
I'll squirt you.

Yeah. I'm not gonna do that.

If that girl poured water
on my hair,

Coach wouldn't be
the only one missing a limb.

You know,
you got the JV team fooled.

What?

Well, you're not
that much of a bitch.

Okay.

Once we get back, we can, like,
move our lockers together.

I think that would be,
like, so much fun.

Now that we found the lake

and, like, now
that we've been bonding,

I think it just totally
makes sense.

- Right?
- Right?

Yeah. That's what I thought.

One thing's for sure:

Travis definitely hasn't been
getting his veggies.

What's that?

It's his pay stub.

Looks like he's been
working at a place

called Willow Brook Ranch.

That's a $200 bottle.

That's expensive taste

for someone who's
barely making minimum wage.

Freeze!

That's not really necessary.

Get your hands up.

What are you doing in here?

We're just visiting
an old friend.

Such an old friend
you had to bust his window?

On your knees.

Now.

Lady, I will shoot you.

Like that?

I'm sorry, I'm not allowed
to give out room information

if your name is not
on the reservation.

Um, I'm his wife.

He just hasn't texted me
the room number yet.

So, just...

Then I'm sure he will soon.

Look, I didn't want
to have to do this,

but I'm with Homeland Security.

We're undercover, but
we just tracked our guy here,

and now all we need is the room.

I-I have my badge in my pocket,

but this motherfucker
has eyes everywhere.

If I show it to you,
I might get made.

Excuse me.

Agent Smith?

D.C.'s on the line. Briefing.

- That's important. Okay.
- Mm-hmm.

Uh, thank you.

Oh, my God.

What are you doing here?

Well, I was just about
to ask you the same thing,

but apparently the answer
is anti-terrorism.

Yes. I...

Like to mess with people.
I'm aware.

Well, I didn't come here
to fight crime.

I came here for a drink.

My studio space
is down the street,

and this place
does a classic martini.

Kind of looks like
you could use one.

You know, if a bomb goes off,
that's on you.

I will take full responsibility.

Okay.

The old slammer.

Wow.

It certainly smells
the way I thought it would.

I bet he thinks we're hookers.

You stole
my battery cable, Misty.

Why would you fucking do that?

Well, I wanted to come with you,
and I didn't think you'd let me.

Was I wrong?

Phone calls.

Scatorccio first.

It's Scatorccio.

Hello?

You have received a collect call

from Eden Falls Police Station.

- The caller's name is...
- Natalie.

Will you accept the charges?

Yes.

Three days out of rehab,
and you're already arrested.

Was there some record
to beat or...

I missed my three hots

and a cot.

I guess you can be funny
when it's not your money wasted.

I never asked you
to pay for rehab.

And I'm not high, if it matters.

Where is Eden Falls?

New Hampshire.

What the hell is up there?

Travis.

For fuck's sake, Natalie.

I got a lead that he was,
uh, living up here, and then,

you know, the cops found me
looking around his place.

Meaning you broke in.

Have you seen him yet?

No, but I think
I know where he works.

Go home, Nat.

Home?

Yeah, what's that?

He doesn't want to be found.

He disappeared on you
for a reason.

Wow.

Thanks for your support.

I just know how this story goes,
and so do you.

You two are the worst
for each other,

and I don't want to pull you
out of that toxic shit again.

It's so easy for you
to judge others

with your perfect life, right?

- I'm hanging up.
- No.

Come on.

I need you to bail me
out of this place.

You could make a call
or something.

You know people, right?

Oh, you're kidding me, right?

What's the point
in having all your connections

if you can't use them?

If I pull strings
to get you out of jail,

how do you think
that's gonna look?

I don't know.

I'm sorry, I can't help you.

I need to find him, Tai.

Please.

Not this time.

You got it.

I got it!

Yes!

vocalizing...

Guys!

Look.

- What is that?
- It looks like a reflection.

Guys, there's something
on the hill!

Come on, let's go.

Let's check it out.

Come on, you guys.

There's something.
Come on, let's go.

Guys, it's here. It's here!

I don't see anybody.

Hello? Hello?

Is anybody in there?!

- Hello!
- Hello?

Hello! Anybody home?!

Hello? Is anyone here?

Maybe they just went on a hike?

Yeah, like a decade ago.

It reeks in here.

Jesus.

You guys, check the pantry,
see if there's any food.

Everyone else, look around
for stuff we can use.

First aid, flashlights, tools.

Food. Oh, yeah.

What the hell? Jackie,
that's not your personal buffet.

Ugh. Fuck.

Gross.

See, this is why we should've
stayed in the plane!

Yeah, well, we didn't.

So this is helping how exactly?

This is a fucking nightmare.

Fuck.

vocalizing...

Well, hello.

Don't worry, guys.

We might be stuck in the middle
of nowhere, but, hey,

at least there's porn.

- Holy shit.
- I'm not kidding.

- Look.
- Gnarly.

Whoa.

Oh, my God.

Whoa.

Hey, this guy kind of
looks like you, Flex.

If only any of you
actually looked like her.

Okay. Yeah. Very funny.

Do guys, like, actually
jerk off to this stuff?

Nah, we-we hate that shit.

You know, you can't even tell
what her favorite book is.

- Mm. Mm-hmm.
- Ha-ha.

- Oh, my God.
- Like, what is that?

I don't know, dude.

Hey. Let me see it.

No.

Come on, let me see it.

Spit it out.

No.

Spit it out.

Let go!

Let go!

Dad was a dick, Javi.

All right?

He's the whole reason
we're in this hell,

and now he's dead.

Don't you understand?

Dad is fucking dead!

vocalizing...

Who'd you call?

Someone I thought was a friend,
but I guess I was wrong.

So it's my turn?

Who do you have to call?

Your bird?

Oh.

Caligula hasn't learned
how to use the phone yet.

I mean, it looked like it was
frayed down to a single wire,

but actually
it was aircraft cable.

It could hold 4,000 pounds.

But turns out
the NYPD wasn't so thrilled

about having a giant bank safe

dangling above
the streets of Chelsea.

After that debacle, I pretty
much had to swallow my pride,

move back across the river.

I was flat broke,

but it made me
connect to my roots again.

Figurative stuff mostly.

I don't know, there's...

something freeing about it.

I go where the work takes me.

I don't ask why or where.

I can just let go.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine. Mm.

"We are what we pretend to be,

so we must be careful
what we pretend to be."

"And I asked myself
about the present:

How wide it was,
how deep it was,

how much was mine to keep."

Think I like this book club.

Why are you here, Shauna?

Um, I'm confirming a suspicion.

And once you do,
will it make you happier?

No.

You're beautiful
when you're honest.

Why are you... here,

Adam?

I was just getting a drink.

But I don't know now.

I'm starting to think
maybe something out there

has other ideas.

I don't ask where or why.

I just go.

Your friend phoned a winner.

Who did you call?

Oh, just someone
I thought was a friend,

and turned out I was right.

Okay. Kevyn Tan.

Kevyn? Why-why did you call him?

Mm, because he's a cop
and because we've been

texting back and forth and...

Oh, oh, fine.

He thinks I'm you.

Oh, come on.

What's the big deal?

He was looking at you
like he wanted to ravage you

right then and there in the bar.

So I thought, "What the heck?

Let's see what can happen
for these crazy kids."

And I was totally right.

He is super into you.

What have you been
saying to him?

Well, mainly, I've just been
trying to channel you,

so I've been being
dark and deadpan.

- Yeah, I can only imagine.
- Yeah, kind of like that.

Do you know how weird you are?

Oh, please don't be mad.

It's a really long drive home,

and uncomfortable silences
make me uncomfortable.

We're not going home.

Where are we going?

Hey.

I found a couple extra blankets,
if you want one.

Thanks.

I didn't mean
to hurt your feelings, okay?

I have no idea
what's right or wrong out here.

I was just following my gut
so that we...

wouldn't die of thirst.

I don't know about you, but...

...I'm really scared.

They should've come for us
by now, right?

What if they're never going to?

I just need
my best friend right now.

Come here.

The worst is behind us, okay?

We survived
a fucking plane crash.

We're gonna be fine.

Fuck! God!

Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!

Why?!

Goddamn it. Fuck you.

Fuck you!

Fuck you! Fuck you!

Goddamn it!

What the fuck do you want?!

- Hey, hey, hey, it's-it's...
- What the...

Get the fuck away
from me, Misty!

Come here.

Come here. Come here.

It's all right. It's all right.

I can't just...
I can't just be like this now.

Why couldn't I have died?

Because we needed you.

And I'm here for you, Ben.

I'm here for you.

She'd say,
"Billy, don't run so fast

Might fall
on a piece of glass

Might be snakes
in the grass"

Grandma's hands

Nana?

What is it?

Who are you?

Is the angel here?

Don't you come over here.

I mean it. Stay away.

- Who?
- That man with no eyes!

Don't let him take me!

Don't let him take my eyes!

I know you're not asleep.

Are you gonna stay mad
at me forever?

I get that you want Manny back,
but you hurt that boy today.

And when people do bad things,

they should get punished,
don't you think?

Yes.

Well, okay, then.

Next time, you'll use
your words, not your fists.

In the morning,
you can have Manny back.

Why don't people like you?

I'm different from what people
expect, and it scares them.

But whatever they say about me,

I hope you know it isn't true.

I know.

You're not the bad one.

Sammy, is someone else
the bad one?

Good night, Mom.

Good night.

- Hello?
- Phil.

It's Taissa Turner.

I wanted to give you a heads-up.
I know about Jane's drug arrest.

I get why you buried it.

You're a parent.

So am I.

But that attack ad, Phil...

Taissa.

...insinuating
that I'm dangerous.

Guess what. You're right.

I won't think twice about
destroying you, your family...

your entire existence.

Another move like that,
and your daughter's face

is above the fold of every
newspaper in the tri-state area.

Don't fuck with me, Phil.

Fuck's your deal?

Come inside.

I just have a bad feeling
about this place.

Well, yeah, because it stinks.

And there are spiders
that could eat your face.

But, hey, after that bear
we saw today,

I'm not gonna let you
sleep out here, okay?

Come on. Let's go.

Are you kidding me right now?

"A bad feeling"?

I don't believe in that shit,
and you're not going to either.

Okay? So get your ass inside.
