A Lovely Nowhere

1
[SINGER VOCALIZING]
I'm really enjoying my vacation.
[LAUGHTER]
Who was that cutie you were talking to?
ALISON: Tonight is my last night.
I was hoping we could
do something special.
CLAIRE: Mama?
What is it, sweetie?
Alison didn't come home last night.
DETECTIVE: Multiple witnesses saw Alison
at the bar last night
with two young, local men.
We have determined the
death of Alison Thomas
was an accident.
But this was not an accident.
And everyone knows it.
CLAIRE: My sister's murder
was headline news for years.
Sometimes it feels like
the whole world knows more than I do.
SUNITA: You need to get some help,
because at this point,
you've become a stalker.
CLAIRE: I need to keep doing this.
For her.
[FOOTSTEPS RUNNING, PERSON PANTING]
[OMINOUS MUSIC]
CLAIRE: Alison didn't
come home last night.

- [LOUD CRACK]
- PERSON: Gogo!
PERSON: Malcolm!
[THUNDER BOOMING]

PERSON: Alison!
PERSON 2: Can you hear me?

- PERSON 3: Hey! Alison!
- PERSON 4: Alison!
[DISTANT INDISTINCT SHOUTING]

[SIREN BLARING]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Oh, God, I'm sorry. Please.
I'm so sorry. [PANTING]
Our Father, who art in
Heaven, hallowed be Thy name.
Thy kingdom come. [INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Thy will be done on
Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those

[EERIE MUSIC]

[UPBEAT POP MUSIC]

[CLEARS THROAT]
Can I buy you a drink?
I mean, sure. I like free things.
What'll you have?
Uh, can I have another one
of these masterpieces, please?
- And he'll have one, too.
- BARTENDER: You got it.
I'm Emily.
Trev.
And, uh, what do you do, Emily?
I'm an editor environmental
documentaries, mostly.
Ah, a do-gooder.
- Sometimes.
- [CHUCKLES]
And let me guess you're a consultant?
I mean, the suit, the
bespoke tie at half-mast
mourning the end of another
satisfying day consulting.
Plus, the Brecht Consulting
bag kind of gave it away.
I see. You think I'm a total douche.
No, not at all.
Good people can work at
problematic companies.
You know, change from
within and whatnot.
Josh, over here.
Did we make a new friend again?
This is Trev.
He works at Brecht,
but he's pretty sure
he's one of the good ones.
- JOSH: Oh.
- This is my boyfriend, Josh.
He's a civil rights lawyer,
so he's definitely one of the good ones.
Watch out for that one.
Yes. Beware of women with opinions.

Should we go home and
rechristen our apartment?
I'd love to, but I got
to get back to the office.
- No.
- Why don't I walk you home?
I mean, I thought you said
Flatbush was totally safe.
All right, you caught me. I still worry.
Well, I'll be fine.
- JOSH: Mm-hmm?
- Mm-hmm.
Okay.
[SOFT TENSE MUSIC]

PERSON: Ooh, I see you looking, mama.
Come on. Come on.
You know you want some of this. Come on.

SINGERS: Love is a
flower that blooms ♪
SINGER: In the springtime ♪
SINGERS: In the springtime ♪
Beneath the light of the moon ♪
SINGER: In the springtime ♪
SINGERS: In the springtime ♪
CHILD: He started it!
PERSON: See, their
sister's being naughty.
BRETT: 200 bucks for shuttle service.
I mean, is it too much to ask
for it to be here when we arrive?
It's like that everywhere
in the Caribbean.
- Island time, they call it.
- Oh, my God, Dad.
MIA: Darien is lovely.
We considered that when
we were leaving the city.
We're in White Plains.
JAMIE: Oh. And those are your girls?
Yes. This is Alison.
She's on break from college.
Freshman at Princeton.
- Princeton?
- MIA: Yeah.
- Good for you.
- BILL: And she's a superstar
swim team, tennis team,
graduated high school
second in her class.
Plus, I have a completely
overblown sense of self-worth
due to my incredibly doting parents.
And how old are you, sweetheart?
It's okay. This is Clairey.
She's seven.
She's a little bit shy.
I wish ours could be more shy.
I'm not the one who fed them
two packs of candy on the plane, Brett.
- Oh, great!
- [OVERLAPPING CHATTER]
I guess we'll see you there.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

MIA: I spy with my little eye
something blue.
The sky. Too easy, Mama.
Ah. I spy
something with feathers.
Clairey, no, remember
what we talked about?
No arm writing. You
spell it in your mind.
Mom, leave her alone.
DRIVER: [MUTTERING INDISTINCTLY]
[HORNS HONKING]
[ENGINE SPUTTERING]
I spy a girl.
Why'd she do that?
Clairey, did you know
that 2 billion people,
which is more than a
third of humans on Earth,
live on less than $2 a day?
She's seven, Al.
Does she really need to know that?
I don't think seven's too young to learn
about the hypocrisy of our lifestyle.
I'm warning you. Enough.
ALISON: Hypocrisy, Clairey,
is when you say you feel a certain way,
but your actions
directly contradict that.
Kind of like how Mom and Dad
say they care about poverty,
but instead of doing anything about it,
they plan a luxury vacation on an island
where people don't even have
solid roofs over their heads.
Alison
DRIVER: Miss, on our island,
the people are well fed and happy.
MIA: You have to excuse my daughter.
She's in her first year of college
and reading a bunch of Toni Morrison.
Her heart's in the right
place. She's just
a little confused.
[UPBEAT TROPICAL MUSIC]

PERSON: Bonjour. Welcome, welcome.
EDWIN: Hello.
Oh, my God.
Careful.
EDWIN: Welcome.
Welcome to Indigo Bay.
Hello.
- I want to stay another week.
- [LAUGHS]
Thanks. This is beautiful.
The punch is made
with fresh guava, miss.
Trust me, you'll like it.

Please go relax.
You must not miss the sunset.
I shall take care of your bags
and see that you are all checked in.

- There's a pool.
- I know.
You want to go look?
Okay. Have a good one. Thank you.
Yes. My big man, Gogo.
How's it hanging, boy?
Guess who just got a $20 tip.
You're shitting me. From who?
Those anti-men I took to their room.
He did not even look at the bill.
He just want to get
down to doing the nasty
with he husband, I guess.
Oh, man, we love them
American anti-men.
Mm. What are you doing tonight?
Damian's got that football game.
I cannot tonight. Don't start.
We can't all be free and easy, Edwin.
EDWIN: Yeah, by choice,
Goges. By choice, man.
[SOFT MUSIC]

[BIRDS CHIRPING]
I spy cotton candy.
[LAUGHS] That's a good one, Clairey.
BILL: [LAUGHING]

Look, there's the kids' club.
Hi.
Come on, Alison, smell
that ocean breeze.
- Smell it. [INHALES DEEPLY]
- [MIA CHUCKLES]
Ahh.
Admit that this resort is incredible.
Admit that you'd rather be in paradise
than fucking New Jersey.
And admit [LAUGHS]
Admit that it's not so awful
to be with your capitalist,
- bougie parents for a week.
- Fine.
- Come on.
It's great.
I'm happy to be here.

BILL: Steph Curry's on a tear.
Warriors are gonna win
another ring this year.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

CHILD: Cookie!
Well, hello.
Hi.
Oh, you have a cookie.
Thank you so much. Oh.
She loves sharing her cookies.
Oh, well that is wonderful. Thank you.
- Say "you're welcome."
- You're welcome.
You're so good with her. You have kids?
Yes. DAD: Yeah?
Yes. We have a daughter. DAD: Nice.
- Say "goodbye."
- BOTH: Bye.
- JOSH: Peanut punch?
- EMILY: No.
- JOSH: I think we need it.
- EMILY: No.
We're not getting that.
JOSH: Good source of protein.
Good source of calcium.
Oh. Hey.
Hey, have you seen that
old man in the building,
wears the NASCAR hat
with the little dog?
Oh, Jefe? That dog's an asshole.
Yeah, right?
Never met an asshole dog before.
- Thanks, man.
- EMILY: Thank you.
JOSH: All right. Have a good one.
EMILY: Yeah, I want him to like us.
JOSH: Maybe we should buy
him some treats or something.
Bribe him into loving us. I'm
determined to win him over.
- Emily, you okay?
- Yeah.
Yeah, I just haven't seen
that soda since the island.
Yeah, no shit. So are you okay?
Yeah, I'm fine. It was just a memory.
JOSH: I know you said
you'd be fine here,
but if it's too much, we
can move somewhere else.
I just want you to feel safe
Josh, stop. I'm not freaking out, okay?
It was a memory, a good memory.
That's soda's delish.
Stop.
- Well
- I would tell you. I promise.
Look, I love Flatbush.
I love our apartment.
- [DOG BARKING]
- I even love this asshole dog.
JOSH: Hello.
[BOTH LAUGHING]
[DISTANT SIREN WAILING]
[TROPICAL MUSIC]

This is so nice.

- Mama
- MIA: Yeah, Clairey?
Where's Alison?
Can you go check and
make sure she's okay?
MIA: Sweetie, I know you're so excited
to play with your sister, but
teenagers like to sleep in.
Can I get a tour of your sandcastle?
Yeah?

Wow.
That's the moat.
That's the tower where the
princess lives all alone.
BILL: Alone? Why?
Her parents went to a party
and left her with a babysitter.
She was witch, so the
princess killed her.
Fantastic.
You keep on
MIA: I know. I know. I saw it.
We're working on it, okay?
Honey, it's a process.
You don't stop something
like that overnight, right?
People are looking at her.
MIA: No, they're not.
DANA: Interesting how different
she is from her sister.
What sister?
Come on.
You didn't notice the
sumptuous 18-year-old
at dinner last night?
I only have eyes for you, dear.
And in general, I don't ogle children.
Sorry. It's these hormones.
They're making me crazy.
EDWIN: Look at our island,
pulling out she most
beautiful day for you.
What can I be getting you this morning?
Nothing for me, thanks.
ETHAN: Yeah, I'll get
another, uh, rum punch.
Uh, but do me a favor
and tell your, uh
tell your bros not to water
it down this time, okay?
[LAUGHS]
I assure you,
no drinks are watered
down at Indigo Bay.
Thank you.
ETHAN: No drinks are watered down.
[LAUGHS]
- BILL: There you are.
- MIA: Hi. Morning, sweetie.
BILL: How about a family swim?
Start the day off right?
ALISON: Pass. I just woke up.
Do you have makeup on?
No. I just showered.
I was disgusting.
Dad, I'll still swim with you later.
Hey, Clairey. Come here.
- I made a sandcastle.
- You did?
I can tell, 'cause you're all sandy.
Hello.
- BILL: Hey.
- Hello.
You have not yet met my mate Gogo.
Just this morning I said,
"Gogo, you must meet the Thomases.
Good people from the land West Chester."
[LAUGHS]
EDWIN: We have a few excursions today.
I recommend highly the snorkeling trip
or the hike on Faraway Cay.
MIA: How far is Faraway Cay?
EDWIN: Ironically, she
is only 500 meters away.
- [CHUCKLES]
- EDWIN: It's a magical place
with a big, beautiful
waterfall at her center.
But the trip is only for the very brave.
Some say it is haunted.
People be vanishing
from there all the time.
Some have seen a long-haired woman,
eight foot tall with
goat hooves for feet.
They say she curses the sinners
and and changes they to goats.
Oh, that sounds fun. We should go.
Desmond, our excursions guide,
will book everything you need.
CLAIRE: I don't want to go.
I don't like to go either, miss.
We also have a volleyball
match this afternoon.
Care to join us?
MIA: Oh, Al, you'd love that.
Ah, excellent.
May we count you in, miss?
Maybe.
More of a sunbather, are we?
[SOFT MUSIC]

He's a great guy.
MIA: So friendly.
And make them fries
extra crispy, he say.
We gonna lime hard tonight, mate.
Go to Paulette's, dance,
take us a break from all
them "extra crispies."
- GOGO: Can't.
- EDWIN: Come on.
Just a quick drink.
I can't. Sara already vex with me.
Oh, she not let you
lime yesterday neither.
You know, it's bullshit.
She not worth your time.
GOGO: She need me to mind Clive Jr.
Come on. She can watch she own son.
That pickney a pain in the ass.
You shut your fucking face!
Mate, you know I meant nothing by it!
So weird, man. [CLICKS TONGUE]
Been this way since
primary school, you know?
[CHILDREN LAUGHING]

[SIGHS] Clive, come on.
You gonna make some really
nice friends today, Clive.
None of that fidgeting.
Stay away from the wild ones.
Your Auntie Ruthie, she wild.
One night, she sneak out to Faraway
with she wild friends drinking
and doing God knows what,
and that long-hair witch
with the hooves for feet
change she into a goat.
So better listen to your grandma.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Stop the fidgeting.
You have to go to the bathroom or what?
[LIGHT MUSIC]

You must be the new boy.

Please don't be pissed.

I'm sorry. Josh and I got distracted.
Fucking?
You live together now.
Fuck on your own time.
We weren't. We weren't.
Anyway, I'm pulling up now, okay?
Good, 'cause I already ordered.

Well, that's good, 'cause as usual,
I don't have an umbrella.
DRIVER: Oh, the weather,

[TENSE MUSIC]

OFFICER: Multiple witnesses saw Alison
at the bar last night
with two young local men.
They were drinking, dancing,
and the three of them
left the bar together around midnight.
I arrested the two men a few
hours later for drunk driving,
but your daughter was
no longer with them.
Oh, you know, you don't have to say it.
I know it those two fucking guys

GOGO: Tea service from the manager.

Uh, I have tea from the manager.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Okay, A, you're buying the drinks,

Hey, what
Holy shit. What's the matter?
Oh, shit. Okay, you know what?
L-let's get the fuck out of here.
Hey, hey. Let's go.
[OMINOUS MUSIC]
EMILY: There he was, driving a cab,
talking about the weather
like nothing ever happened.

Jesus, that's fucking insane.
I mean, what are the chances?
I can't explain what it
was like being next to him.
His voice, his his face
it was like I was there again.
You think I should have spoken to him?
What? No. Why would you even
Em, everybody knows those guys
raped and killed your sister.
Yeah, I know, and he's one of two people
who knows the truth,
who knows everything.
How? Why?
Okay, Em, promise me you're
not gonna do something stupid.
I won't.
All right.
And you'll talk to
Dr. Norton about this?
Can't I just tell you
something that happened to me
without you thinking
I'm gonna fucking crack?
That's not what I meant.
Fuck.

Someday when I'm making

Tonight was fun, huh?
CLAIRE: Yeah, I liked the dancing.
I did, too.
I wish you'd hung out with
some of the other kids, though.
CLAIRE: I didn't want to.
ALISON: I know.
But making friends is important.
I don't know how, not like you do.
I'm shy, too, sometimes.
It's just about confidence,
about faking it till you make it.
You'll be just as brave
as me one day, I promise.
You think?
ALISON: Braver.
Now hop in that bed.
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
Good girl.
Go to sleep, okay?
I'll be back in an hour.
Where are you going?
Out. You'll be fine.
CLAIRE: Please don't go, Alison.
I'm scared.
ALISON: Of what?
Of the long-haired woman
with the hooves for feet.
ALISON: There's nothing to be scared of.

I'm sorry.
I had a fight with Sunita.
I lost my phone, and
I was in a shitty mood.
And I shouldn't have
taken it out on you.
Okay.
Oh, this was with
your posters and stuff.
I wasn't sure where you wanted it.
No, it's perfect right there.

Josh, I know I have issues

But I am working on them.

You deserve the greatest
girlfriend in the world.
