01x08 - Be Mine

Post by bunniefuu »

She's gone--

my daughter.

So now it-- it's over.



You're one of those girls,

aren't you--

from the group home?

They come and go

so much next door.

Dirty girls.

Man: Theresa Barlow-- you still

sure that you never saw her,

never crossed paths with her?

This is Theresa.

Hello.

Hello.

I see a man looking for you.

I'm trying to

remember something--

something from my past.

What if I was running

because I did something--

something worse

than everything else?

Was it you?

[ Holiday tune playing ]

Hey, Marnie.

Can I come in

a little late tomorrow?

I think Kit has kind of a

-I don't know, surprise for me.

-Oh.

It's my birthday,

and I have a feeling

that he's got something

something planned.

-Mmm.

-For my birthday.

It's your birthday.

Oh, you should have said.

Yeah, I can't refuse young love.

I can't hold it back.

-So I can come in late? Yeah?

-Yeah.

Yeah? I love you.

I love you all so much

even if you forgot my birthday.

All: Happy birthday to you ♪

Happy birthday to you ♪

Happy birthday,

dear Karen ♪

Happy birthday to you ♪

Man: You're changing

your story.

Are you saying I'm lying?

I'm saying you're giving me

a different version

of a story

that you've already told me.

They were happy for me.

Marnie was worried about you.

You said she thought he was

cutting you off

on the people

that care about you.

No, you said that.

I said they were happy for me.

You want to believe that they

were happy for you,

because to believe

otherwise makes you feel like

you can't trust yourself.

Do you trust yourself?

I think you've been suppressing

the memories

that you find traumatic.

I think you've erased

the moments

that you don't want to remember.

Don't go out with him tonight.

Come out with us.

I never see you outside

of work anymore.

Or maybe those things

never happened

the way you think they did.

So, they think I did it.

Well, they must, or they

wouldn't want to talk to me.

So does it make you happy?

I thought you wanted

to be punished.

I thought you wanted

to be guilty.

No?

I want to remember--

that's what I want.

Well, the FBI's gonna do all

they can to help you do that.

I've told them, and you,

everything that I could.

You told us everything before

they found a woman's skull

that had been bashed in

by a heavy object

i-i-in the same location

that a serial k*ller was living

at the same time

that the serial k*ller

was living there.

If you lied to me or them about

what happened about any of it,

I promise you you're gonna

go back to prison

and you're gonna serve your

whole term and the FBI's gonna

charge you with further

obstruction of justice.

Why are you being

such an as*h*le?

Why aren't you helping me?

Why aren't you telling them

that you believe me?

Well, I guess my judgment's

all messed up.

I'm in love with you, remember?

-Come on, Pete.

-You're on your own.

-Pete.

-Just the way you like it.

Hey.

Pete.

Hey!

[ Car engine starting]

Pete, come on.

[ Lawnmower engine starts ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Lawnmower engine droning ]

Wow.

Bringing the place

back to life, huh?

-I love it.

-No, Saul.

-It's time to move on.

-Huh?

[ Pounding ]

I don't want to live

in a mausoleum anymore.

[ Doorbell chimes ]

I'm-- I'm--

I'm sorry about Theresa.

Well, I wanted an answer.

Be careful what you wish for,

right?

You, uh, you leaving again?

Can I crash here for a while?

Uh-- uh, are-- are you serious?

I mean, me-- me and the roaches?

Let's do this.

You, me, and the roaches.

Yeahyeah. Yeah.

-Yeah? Yeah?

-Yeah.

[ Rain pattering,

thunder rolling ]

Theresa's still in--

she's still here.

What?

I couldn't do it.

You need to make a choice.

I can't.

She's got nowhere to go.

I thought you liked her.

I hate her.

-Get rid of her.

-It's not that easy.

She trusts me.

That's how it's easy.

Get rid of her, you understand?

Or I will.

Kit.

You're back.

I was starting to worry

about you.

You shouldn't worry about me.

[ Gasping ]

Who are you?

I'm a seer, too.

And you are in great danger.

This collar is from her cat--

the woman I need

to warn you about.

I have a-- a-- a--

a client-privilege situation.

-You smoke?

-No.

She came to you as a lamb,

asking for help, but

she is a wolf

and she means to do you harm.

[ Dog barks ]

[ Growls ]

If I were to break privilege--

the sacred terms

by which I'm bound

What would you want to know?

What she told you.

So I can keep you safe.

She said she doesn't remember.

But her cards were bad.

The devil was in her cards.

She hurt a girl.

A girl with a necklace.

She was in the snow.

She had a rock.

The rock had blood on it.

And Death was was in the cards.

Her past is filled

with violence.

[ Insects chirping, birdsong ]

Good morning, mama.

You come here every day?

To talk to my mom.

Make sure she knows the Festival

of Saints is coming.

She like the festival?

It's the night the dead

comes back.

I'm making sure she knows

to come back.

I called you because

I found this.

It's Jess'.

Do you know

what her passcode is?

Because there might be something

on it that could help us.

How'd you get it?

I don't--

Somebody gave it to me.

Who's the girl in the photo

with the two of you?

Tina.

She's in the hospital.

She got appendicitis.

That's what Miss Diana said.

I need you to help me, Jay.

There's something happening

to the girls from the house,

and I have a terrible

feeling about it.

So I need you to watch

what goes on there,

but you have to be careful, OK?

OK.

Where in Biloxi you gonna

send Tina's stuff?

'Cause I want to see her

when she's out

from the hospital.

Tina's my last true friend.

Tina's with Jesus.

Bad appendix.

I can't help you no more.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

-Jay?

-Tina's with Jesus.

-Because of the appendicitis.

-Is that what they said to you?

She is with Jesus! She is!

No, that's not what this is.

Then why ain't you

saying something?

Why ain't you looking after us?

-I can't.

-Jessie and Tina are gone.

You got her phone,

so you better do something.

You better be a good person!

I'm trying.

Jessie might have used my

birthday for her passcode.

07-15-08.

Jay?

Jay?

[ Sighs ]

Hey.

[ Sighs ]

Hey!

What, so you're just gonna

ignore me now?

You walked out on me

the other night.

-No.

-Not a word of apology.

And now I guess

you need something.

-That's why you're here, right?

-I'm trying to talk to you.

[ Thunder rolling ]

I don't know what happened.

She

She came to me,

and I didn't let her in.

And then when I found her,

she'd been stabbed.

And you been sitting on this?

Knowing that there's someone

out there who did this?

Emma, what's wrong with you?

There's not a reason on Earth

that could stop you

from reporting

two girls are dead.

I have a history.

I could lose my daughter.

I could lose Freya because of

it-- because of my past.

Because you're in

witness protection.

What?

When I checked out

your landlord,

I got curious about him

and how you'd be involved

with a psychiatrist.

He works for the program.

Emma Hall doesn't exist.

You got no social media--

nothing.

So I know you're not her.

But I don't know who you were

or why you're hiding.

My name is Karen.

My boyfriend

k*lled nine women.

The police thought that

I was involved,

that I helped him

or that I k*lled them myself.

So I can't risk them finding out

who I am,

thinking that I'm somehow

connected to these two girls.

-Did you?

-What?

Did you have something

to do with them?

-No.

-Not any of them?

I can't remember.

There is something that won't

unlock, so nothing makes sense.

And they say that it's, like--

that it's PTSD,

that it's because of something

I saw, something that happened.

Something you did?

I hope not.

We're all booked up, sir.

I'm not looking for a room.

I'm looking for an underage girl

who was in one of your rooms,

and I'd like to see

who she was with.

Somebody call you?

I don't know why they would.

We don't have any trouble here.

And I can't disclose information

about our clientele.

The girl is dead.

Changed my mind.

I'd like to book room 308.

That room's not available, sir.

It says here it's unoccupied.

It's under special arrangement.

What arrangement?

I'm not at liberty to disclose.

You've had a wasted journey,

sir.

'Less you got a warrant.

But I guess you traffic cops

don't have a lot of those.

[ "Vad Hande Med Dem?" by The

Brian Jonestown m*ssacre plays ]

[ Phone ringing ]

Hey.

It's me.

Yes?

So W-what are you

gonna do now?

Now that it's all over.

Well, it's not over.

You need to know what happened

to your daughter.

No.

No, I don't need to know

any more answers.

Her

beautiful head was smashed

apart by a monster's hammer,

so, nope,

I don't need to know any more.

I don't need to know

anything ever again.

Why did you call me, then?

Oh, yeah.

So, does-- does anyone,

apart from me,

know who you really are?

'Cause it's hard, isn't it?

To live with so many things

you can't talk about?

Uh, my circle's relatively

small, but I manage.

Who's in your circle?

[ Laughs ]

John?

It's me, isn't it?

[ Laughs ]

I-- I am your circle.

[ Continues laughing ]

Are you on drugs, Mary?

I don't think it's appropriate

for you to call me

when you're high.

Uh, we'll speak in the morning.

I don't-- I don't want to speak

in the morning.

I-- I want to know how,

when-- when you have a secret

that big,

w-who can you ever be close to?

Tell me how, John.

How do you--

How do you manage

what you've done?

Don't do drugs, Mary.

We'll speak when you're sober.

No.

John? John!

[ Hangs up ]

You ready yet?

I want you to go.

And then I want to burn

the sheets

so I don't

have to smell you anymore.

[ Groans ]

Hey.

Don't don't be scared.

I don't-- I don't mean

nothing by you.

Wait. Hey!

Hey!

[ Door closes ]

John?

What you doing here?

Uh, I'm-- I'm staying here.

But you got a book deal.

It's research.

All right, um Hey, man,

you see a girl go by?

A girl?

Yeah, about 15.

I-I did.

I think she went into the room

down there.

It's still open-- the door.

OK. All right, thanks, John.

I just want to talk to you.

Don't be frightened.

I'm gonna come in, OK?

What?

I could've sworn I saw her

come in here.

Did you see this?

Man, this stuff is about Emma.

Who's in this room?

Me.

[ Unzips ]

[ Sighs ]

[ Ringing ]

Man: Who's this?

Hey, Emma, you seen my comb?

I know I had it.

Every time I set it down,

it goes.

Hello, Emma.

I don't thank you enough

for all you do

for us

for our family.

It's God's work I do.

And He thanks you through me.

Through our daughter.

I just want her to be safe.

Who was the girl--

colored her hair?

Emma.

Emma Hall.

Well, hello, handsome.

Lana, I'm here for work.

I'm a writer.

I have crazy hours.

There's gonna be nights where

I work and days when I sleep.

Could you put a note in--

"Don't need to clean my room

while I'm here"?

Sure can. I wish all our guests

are so amenable.

[ Both chuckle ]

I will tell you a secret.

I can be very, very demanding.

I don't believe that

for a minute.

Oh.

I need to shower.

Well, when you party like that.

With you.

Oh, my God. I'm gonna die.

[ Shower running ]

I think we should get a dog.

I don't know why

I never had one.

Well, then, let's get a dog.

Or a cat.

Let's have a baby.

[ Laughs ]

Oh, Adam, if--

if you really want a baby,

I don't think

this is gonna work.

I-I-I just want to build things

with you.

You do?

Do you really love me?

g*dd*mn, I do.

When you came to see me

in Minnesota, I

I wasn't at a spa.

OK?

I did something

when I was there.

Mary, it-- it--

It doesn't matter, OK?

Screw Minnesota.

I hurt someone.

Well, then, they deserved it.

She didn't.

I did something terrible.

I just need to-- I--

I need to be able to talk,

and I feel like what you and I

have, it means that I can--

I can-- I can tell you anything.

You-- you-- y-you

You didn't actually h-hurt her,

did you?

-I--

-I mean, you-- you couldn't.

You couldn't do that.

Right. Yeah.

It was just a disagreement,

that was all.

[ Knocking hard ]

Did you bring the cops here?

-I saw somebody come in here.

-No.

There's no police here, ma'am.

-We can't have the police here.

-[ Claps ]

That's right.

He did come in here looking for

a young woman

who was working here.

I think she didn't

have her papers.

They're cracking down on that.

ill*gal labor.

So you do smoke.

S-Sentimental value.

-My mom.

-Mm.

What are you gonna do?

About the woman? About Emma?

I was sent here to keep you

all safe.

All you vulnerable women.

It's Tom-- leave a message,

and I'll get back to you

as soon as I can.

Hey, it's me.

I'm just, um,

checking to see

if you found anything.

And, um,

checking that you're OK.

Do you use kisses?

Just trying to be

consistent.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

[ Switch clicking ]

[ Tom groaning ]

[ Groaning ]

I wanted to warn you

about your girlfriend.

She isn't really Emma at all.

She's actually a very, very bad

person named Karen Miller.

-[ Muffled ]

-What's that?

Look, I really need to get her

to open up to me,

and I feel like, um,

she'll be more giving

when she's all alone.

What do you think?

[ Muffled screaming ]

[ Key turns in lock ]

-Karen.

-Shhhhhhh.

I don't believe it. Look at you.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Did you do it?

The things they said

at the trial?

What do you want from me?

I am trying to make

sense of things.

Something happened, Marn.

My-- My memory got messed up.

We all thought that you were

lying when we heard that

at the trial about your memory.

You never had problems

about your memory.

Marnie, what did you mean

when you said,

"Don't go out with him tonight"?

What do you think I meant?

We all saw it, what he was.

No, I don't believe that.

I don't.

I would've known

if it was that obvious.

I would've had an-- an--

an instinct.

But you didn't,

and he k*lled nine women.

And you're saying

that you knew that?

I'm talking about him

screwing that missing girl.

I was there one night.

He must have had your key.

That's why I said,

"Don't go out with him tonight."

It was after my birthday, right?

Honey, mnh-mnh.

It was a month

before your birthday.

Marnie, it's not possible.

He didn't know her then.

Your man-- the tattoo artist--

right next to her.

So one of you is lying.

She is the missing girl,

isn't she?

The one you both said

you knew nothing about.

You need to tell someone.

You owe it to the girl.

You owe it to her mother.

Oh, God!

[ Thunder rolls,

cellphone vibrating ]

Hello?

Yeah, this is Mary Barlow.

[ Doorbell chimes ]

Can I help you?

[ Infant crying within ]

Look, I hear you, and I totally

appreciate what you're saying,

but right now,

I'm gonna ask you to let me deal

with this way in the way

that I feel best.

-Get off the phone, Pete.

-Look, right now--

Emma's here.

What?

From the cabin.

Our cabin.

The one you said you sold.

I'm gonna have to call you back.

Lisa, we're gonna talk

about this, but right now--

-sh*t!

-Hey!

You have 10 minutes,

then I want her out of my house.

Go after her.

You should go after her, Peter.

No.

I want to talk to you

about the remains.

I k*lled her.

Theresa.

No.

I smashed her head in

with a rock

because I was jealous

-because she was seeing Kit.

-Emma, no.

You didn't k*ll Theresa.

She's the thing that

I can't make sense of. It's her.

Listen to me,

they ran a DNA test

on the remains, OK?

It wasn't Theresa Barlow.

It was a woman that went missing

four years ago in Minnesota.

Her name's Amy Walker.

Do you remember?

Do you remember Parker

mentioning an Amy Walker?

They just sent me a photo.

I want you to see it.

You recognize her?

[ Gasping ]

No. No. No! No! No!

No! No!

Aah! Make it stop!

-Mom?

-Mary, what the hell?

It's not her.

The body in Minnesota.

It's someone else.

She's not dead.

She's still out there!

Our little girl

is still out there!

[ Laughs ]

[ Thunder crashing ]

[ Starts ]

[ Thunder crashing ]

[ Music playing ]

Girl: Tell me a story!
