[DOORBELL RINGS]
Hey, there.
Sorry to bother you, folks,
but, uh, we're looking
for an individual.
Golden-brown complexion.
15 pounds.
No head.
I know where he is.
I'll even serve him up
on a silver platter for you.
Now get in here.
I'm glad to see you finally
out of your man cave.
Well, you know, Amanda
can be pretty convincing
when she wants to be.
Hey, babe. Eric's here.
ERIC:
Hey, Amanda.
Well, well, well, well.
You made it.
Yeah.
[CELL PHONE RINGING]
MITCH: Sorry.
Thomas. One second.
[AMANDA GROANS]
I baked this for you.
I couldn't eat it by myself.
It would just be too depressing.
Wow.
You baked this?
Yeah, you know,
for a single guy,
I know my way around the oven.
Ah... A guy in uniform
who knows how to bake.
I have a feeling you're not
gonna be single for long.
Come on. You remember my mom,
right?
Hey, Mom, remember Eric?
WOMAN: Oh, hey.
ERIC:
Happy Thanksgiving.
Uh, do you want any or...?
[LAUGHING]: No, no.
Jeans and a sweater?
You could at least
make an effort.
Casual's more my thing,
Kathleen.
Especially in my own house.
Don't you mean "our house" now?
[INDISTINCT CHATTERING]
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
JESSICA: Hi, Dad.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Oh, thank God you're back,
Thomas.
Thought we'd be eating
a frozen turkey dinner.
[CHUCKLING]
This guy.
Sorry, Rob.
Yeah, this is the first time
the store's open
on Thanksgiving.
You know, we always do the,
uh, midnight Black Friday,
but people were showing up
at 6:00 p.m. anyway, so...
And you're a smart man, Thomas.
Yeah, well, credit my beautiful
fiance over there.
It was her idea.
Well, from what
I've been hearing
about the turnout,
it is going to be
a very happy Thanksgiving.
[SMOOCHES]
AMANDA: Here we go.
[OTHERS EXCLAIMING]
ERIC:
Oh, that's beautiful. Yes.
[SINGSONGY]:
Mitch, we need
your carving skills.
I've got time to carve it
but not to eat it.
GRANDMA: Oh, what?
Thomas is not making you work.
Blame Bob.
Apparently, he's AWOL.
Thomas called and said
it's me working or I'm fired.
Oh, sorry,
buddy.
Aw! The store shouldn't
even be open.
It's Thanksgiving.
I know, Mary,
but let's face it.
Black Friday starts
on a Thursday now.
Even in Plymouth.
[GRUNTS]
[CLAMORING]
[CAR HORNS HONKING]
Hey, Bon Jovi,
why don't you get to the back
of the fucking line, okay?
Yeah, suck my dick!
We were here first.
Hey, everybody.
Just fucking calm down.
Two hits. I hit you,
you hit the ground, kid!
What the fuck?!
Jesus, everybody, be patient!
LONNIE: Hey, fuck you!
Let us in, or you'll be
a patient in Mass General.
MANNY:
What the fuck is wrong
with you people?
Fucking funny, eh?
The store opens in ten minutes.
You'll get your waffle iron!
Xanax?
No, you got a fire hose?

MAN [OVER P.A.]: Todd,
I need you at the register.
Thank you.
[CLAMORING]
Bunch of goddamn morons.
["JINGLE BELLS" INSTRUMENTAL

When Kathleen sold my dad
this house,
I didn't realize
she was coming with it.
BOBBY:
She'll never be able
to replace your mom, Jess.
[SOFTLY]:
Yeah.
BOBBY:
And look at it this way.
It was a quick engagement,
so hopefully it'll be
a quick divorce.
Please, God.
[BOTH CHUCKLING]
[HORN HONKS IN DISTANCE]
[MUFFLED HIP-HOP MUSIC PLAYING]
Oh. Let's go.
Dad, we're going to the movies.
Have fun. Uh, Bobby,
I want to hear about
that 19-strikeout game
against UCLA, when you get back.
Deal, Thomas.
Good night, everyone.
Scuba invited Yulia.
He's into her.
[HIP-HOP MUSIC PLAYING]
Got it. I'll gas him up.
[CHUCKLES]:
Okay.
["CRUNK AIN'T DEAD"

Bobby.
Bobby Boucher.
Bobby "Golden Arm"
home for Thanksgiving,
and my ride or die, J-Money.
What up, dawg?
I heard you're
the new Friday Night guy.
Ah, I'd better be, with
a 96-mile-per-hour fastball.
[ENGINE REVVING]
Evan, you are such a dick.
What?
Yo, nice job beating Hanover.
Scuba, I heard
you were unstoppable.
Thanks, man.
It was a pretty good night
until Tyson Fury over here
almost got us
locked the fuck up.
Classic Evan.
JESSICA: Why? What happened?
We got in a run-in with
some drunk Hanover assholes.
SCUBA: Fuck Hanover.
I popped one of them
in the eye,
but this one was too busy
filming herself
to get some fucking footage.
Shit would've
broke the Internets.
You are lucky
I didn't film that, okay?
It was, like,
Waffle House-level cringe.
It was bad.
[OTHERS EXCLAIM]
Crunk ain't dead, crunk ain't
dead, crunk ain't dead...
Fuck Hanover!
Fuck Hanover! Fuck Hanover!
Fuck Hanover!

[CROWD CLAMORING]
This fucking traffic
is ridiculous.
Oh, I can't handle
this shit.
[LAUGHTER]
Yo.
Pit stop. I need a new phone.
Mine got fucking smashed
in the fight.
We're not going to the store.
It's a zoo.
Whoa, no, no, no, yes, we are,
'cause Evan owes me
a new lipstick.
Thank you.
Don't worry, don't worry...
What?
BOBBY: Guys, I thought
we were going to the movies.
Yeah, we-we are.
We are. How am I gonna text
during the movie
without a phone?
Who are you texting?
["OH SHIT!"

Hey! Wrong way, asshole!

JESSICA:
Guys, we need to do
this quick, okay?
Five minutes. In and out.
YULIA: Go, go.
EVAN:
Stealth mission, I promise.
JESSICA:
You can't park your car here.
EVAN:
It's not a car, it's an SUV.
Hey, babe, c-can I just
stay here, please?
Please don't make me
do this alone.
I...
MAN:
Bobby, can I get a selfie?
Hey, one-one second.
I'll be right back.
Hey, man. What's up?
Yo.
Bobby, Bobby,
we have to move.
Yeah, yeah,
one second, one second.
Bobby "Golden Arm,"
all-time record holder
for strikeouts at Plymouth East!
Yes, sir.
[OVERLAPPING CHATTER]
[SIGHS]
RYAN: Hey, Jess.
Hey.
This is, like, the last place
I thought I'd see you tonight.
Yeah, you and me both.
Your dad's store
is insane right now.
Look at all these people.
Um, sorry, Ryan, I-I have to
catch up with my friends.
Oh, I'll walk you.
Come on. Come on.
So, uh, what are you doing
Saturday night?
Going to the Cap with Bobby.
All right, well...
Uh, excuse me...
I'm having a little
get-together with my friends...
Excuse me... and, uh, you know,
if you wanted to come by,
it's just gonna be like
a couple people...
I can't. Bobby's only in town
till Monday, so...
You should just swing by early.
We could, like,
play some drinking games,
have a good time, you know.
I got some kegs.
She's all set, Ryan.
Come on. Let's go.
JESSICA:
Excuse me.
[SCOFFS, SNIFFS]
Chill out,
he's just helping.
Oh, what a gentleman.
[SCOFFS]
Face it.
As long as Golden Arm's around,
you're toast.
Scott. Scott.
Burnt. Toast.
Shut the fuck up, Scott.
Burnt soggy toast.
I love you, dude,
but I'm gonna fucking kill you.
Mm, try your best.
Want to open that gate
for us, gentlemen?
Excuse me, excuse me.
Here, Amanda, get in here.
Oh, my God.
Good evening.
Good evening, Sheriff.
Jesus Christ.
[CLAMORING]
Fuck you.
This is insane.
Yeah. Let's go in the back.
Okay.
Hey!
Hey, you! We got some
unfinished business, you fuck!
EVAN:
Oh, fuck, that's the guy
from Hanover I punched.
Fuck you!
BOTH:
Suck my cock!
Pussy.
Hey, fuck you!
Fuck your mom, fucking pussies!
Yo, Lonnie,
where's your mom at? -Hey!
That's what I thought!
Fuck your cousin,
your second cousin
and fuck your dog!
Let's just get what you need
and get out of here.
In and out, I promise.
[CLAMORING CONTINUES]
MANNY: Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Why are you fucking letting
those fucking jerkoffs in there?
Hello? I fucking see you.
It's Thanks-fucking-giving!
It's an American holiday!
Come on, man.
It's a pizza oven.
Where do you think it goes?
MAN: Sorry, Mitch.
Ten minutes, people.
Please, come on.
Hi. Surprise.
Hey.
Hey, babe.
What are you doing here?
I came in with Eric.
I didn't want you to starve
on Thanksgiving.
Yeah.
I got a call on the radio
about needing some
crowd control.
Uh, yeah.
In fact, you should
probably wait in here, okay?
Okay. Are you okay?
Yeah. We should...
Yeah?
We should go.
Be careful.
["JOY TO THE WORLD"
INSTRUMENTAL PLAYING]
Fucking guy Lonnie's
30 years old.
Dude, he's just mad
He got held back
I took his mom to prom.
Two years
and she gave me a handy.
And he's dating a cheerleader.
Hey, Jess, does your dad
still sell shock collars?
Or a tranquilizer?
Or a sedative?
EVAN:
This is like in the fucking
apocalypse movies...
Evan.
...where you could
take anything you want.
Evan!
EVAN: Scuba.
JESSICA: Come on.
EVAN: You know what time it is,
boys.
Guys.
Let's go. Fletcher...
GABY:
Oh, my God, here we go.
to Dybing!
What happened
to stealth mission?
Come on.
The store will open
in ten minutes.
Fucking Christ!
Just stay calm, take a breath.
Everybody's gonna get
their Furbies, all right?
Oh, yeah? Why the fuck did
they get in there first?
Who?
This is fucking bullshit!
LIZZIE:
They're getting dibs
on all the good shit.
Oh, fuck me.
[CONTINUES INDISTINCTLY]
Those are our fucking Furbies.
Mitch, what the hell
are you doing?
I didn't let them in.
You think I let them in?
Come on, man.
LIZZIE:
What are they doing
in there, man?
You fucking better let us in
right fucking now.
All right, everybody,
just stay calm please.
Fuck you!
Just push back
and stay calm, everybody.
Doug, lock it up. Now.
Yeah.
MITCH:
Guys, nobody's getting in.
We're locking the doors.
[CLAMORING]
[]
Stay calm and back up!
We need you to push back
a little bit.
Hold this for me.
Fuck you, bitch. Hey, hey.
Hey, store's open, everyone.
Hey, give me that.

CROWD [CHANTING ON TV]:
It's Thanksgiving,
not Thanksbuying!
REPORTER:
I'm live here at Right Mart
and although
the store has announced
they will have substantial
security upgrades
for Thanksgiving,
many residents feel after last
year's catastrophic events,
the store shouldn't
be open at all.
Thomas Wright,
you and your entire family
have blood on your hands.
My wife's blood.
We open for Thanksgiving, you
only hire two security guards?
One of whom runs away and
the other is trampled to death
in the same stampede
that killed my wife.
You and your entire family
need to go to prison.
Not have another sale!
MORTON:
Right Mart owner,
Thomas Wright,
has worked overtime
since last year
to give back to the community,
restoring Plymouth Park
and even going so far
as to start
the Wright Family Foundation,
sending local kids to college.
But many say it's not enough.
Local pitching phenom
Bobby Di Stasi
suffered a career-ending injury
and has not been heard from
since the accident.
Many lawsuits were filed
and settled,
but the security cameras
somehow weren't working
the night of the tragedy.
All I know is the cameras
were functioning perfectly fine
when I arrived.
Then they mysteriously
stopped working
the one night there's an actual
disaster at the store.
How convenient.
MORTON:
Thanks, Mitch.
Reporting live, Hank Morton
at the Right Mart
in downtown Plymouth.
Chet, Natalie, back to you.
And here you go.
[CHUCKLING]
Happy Thanksgiving.
Yeah.
[ENTRY BELL JINGLING]
Good morning, Sheriff.
You want the usual?
Two cups today, Lizzie.
New deputy's coming.
Oh, well,
he was in here yesterday
and, uh, he's not much
for conversation.
Yeah.
A real charmer.
Probably just overwhelmed
by the thriving metropolis
that is Plymouth.
Whoa, oh, oh, chills...
[HORN HONKING]
What the fuck?
Fuck you.
This fish.
It's organic.
Oh, you know, all the lobsters
from the north...
Here he is. Good morning.
Good morning, Sheriff.
Welcome.
And here you are.
[ERIC LAUGHS]
It's John Carver.
He was the first...
First governor
of New Plymouth colony.
Look at you. You've been doing
your homework there, Labelle.
Well, if you call reading
a plaque on a statue homework.
Oh, now, come on,
show some enthusiasm.
Thanksgiving
is an institution here.
What kid wouldn't want
to wear that, right?
Yeah, get used to it.
Everybody's
gonna be wearing them.
Yeah. I can get used to it.
But then I bury
the hatchet.
EVAN:
Yes!
Let's go.
What-what are you doing?
Kid, what are you doing?
I just hit top two rungs.
That means you get to go again.
Somebody keeps tagging me
in the video.
Yeah, they're tagging me, too.
God. I'm gonna report it.
Yeah, but people
keep reposting it.
You think someone's doing
it on purpose?
Dude, I just won
this candy apple.
I hit the bull's-eye
like three times in a row.
Awesome.
Good job, babe.
What?
What is it?
What did I do now?
[OVER PHONE]: Evan,
get the fuck down!
This.
EVAN:
This is fucking gold.
I thought we were past this.
Yeah, so did I.
Well, fuck this.
I'm going back to the axe pit.
It's safer there.
Ev, I'm sorry.
I wasn't the only one
with a phone that night.
I know you didn't post it.
Come on, come on.
Ugh.
I have to go
to the John Carver house
to film that stupid commercial
with my dad.
I'm making
my grandmother's stuffing.
Her secret ingredient
was a touch of eggplant.
I only hope I can make it
half as good as hers, though.
Oh, I'm sure you'll make
an excellent dinner, Kathleen.
Hey, Jessica.
Hey.
So, you ready for your
big moment in the limelight?
Oh, yeah. Already wrote
my acceptance speech.
Ah, I have mine ready, too.
[CHUCKLES]
Yours?
Didn't your father tell you?
He wants a family commercial
this year.
Look at it this way:
One more year until college.
How am I supposed to have
an answer? I don't...
I can't fucking believe this!
I don't have an answer, Stan.
I have no idea
what in the hell just happened.
Huh.
ERIC:
Don't know what he's doing.
THOMAS:
It's now just
a complete disaster.
What's going on?
You got to see this.
[]
This is a fucking disaster.
The whole commercial's ruined.
I've been screaming
at everybody the whole morning.
Okay, guys, back up.
I got to call this in.
Yeah, a historical landmark
has been trashed.
THOMAS:
What?
Yeah, whatever.
That, too.
I got to shut this place down.
I catch these guys,
I'm gonna prosecute them
for vandalism.
[LINE RINGING]
Uh, yeah, and theft.
Because there was an axe
on that wall I was gonna use.
It's gone.
Come to Right Mart,
where we slash prices...
without a fucking axe!
My commercial's ruined.
You look relieved.
Yeah.
I'm tired of pretending
like everything's normal
when it's not.
Well, hey, Jess, I want things
to go back to normal, too.
That's why this year's
gonna be everything
last year was supposed to be.
Dad...
Having another sale
like nothing happened
doesn't change anything.
It just ignores it.
[MOUTHING]
And as usual, we can't have
one moment alone.
Hey.
Hey.
[RATTLING]
I'm good. Very good.
How are things going
with Jessica?
Dude, they're amazing.
She invited me to the parade
to be on the float,
and then I scored an invite
to Thanksgiving dinner
with her family at her house.
I feel like I'm in.
Bobby ghosting her is the best
thing that ever happened to me.
Nicely played.
[SIGHS]
Is this good?
I know what boys like...
McCarty Party.
That is where you want to be.
You look like you enjoy alcohol
and drinking,
so you're gonna want to come
down to the McCarty party.
25 whole dollars. Hey.
You guys want tickets
to McCarty Party?
I can do a group rate.
He's charging this year?
Yeah.
He's been watching
a lot of "Shark Tank."
Dude thinks he's Mark Cuban.
No, thank you.
Selling alcohol to teens
isn't exactly disrupting.
No, but it is
a recession-proof business.
Let me know
if you guys want tickets.
They're selling out quick.
How about you
finish my fucking history paper,
and then we'll talk tickets?
Sure.
SCUBA: You're an asshole.
GABY:
You're such... Be nicer to him.
EVAN: Listen, listen.
GABY: He's a sweetie.
Gabs.
EVAN: I paid him
a pretty decent sum of money.
What? I can't write papers and
play football at the same time.
Are you kidding?
It's Bobby.
Oh, shit. He's back.
Wait, why didn't he come talk
to you?
I don't know. I haven't talked
to him in, like, a year.
GABY:
Yeah, that's definitely him.
[PHONES CHIMING]
I don't think so.
I know what boys like
I know what's
on their mind...
YULIA:
"The table is set"?
This is weird.
YULIA:
No, it's-it's a fake.
He has no followers.
EVAN: Ooh, it's a table.
GABY:
We're all tagged.
Mm, Ryan's here.
Evan.
[SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY]
Can you at least try and seem
like you're not a dick?
EVAN:
I'm nice to him.
Okay? Ryan's fine.
He just...
[STAMMERS]
He's harmless, like an NPC.
But...
he messes with
the group dynamic.
Okay.
GABY: Just be nicer.
For me.
Okay. I just have nothing
to talk about with the guy.
He's just, like...
He's kind of boring.
Well, maybe if you made
a bit of an effort.
I mean, he's a good guy.
Good guy.
Well, he hasn't just ghosted me
yet, so...
he's frontrunner.
[ENTRY BELL JINGLES]
[YULIA & SCUBA CHUCKLING]
SCUBA [COUGHS]:
NPC.
Hey.
Walks like a robot.
Talks like a robot.
What's up, everyone?
Ryan!
Hey!
How you doing?
Hello!
Hi, Gab. Good to see you.
Good to see you.
You finish your paper?
[GROANS]
Barely.
I had to start another one
today, and I got...
I'm gonna just... I'm gonna be
swamped until Christmas,
let's just say that.
[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
That's crazy, bro.
Oh, excuse me.
We're ready to order.
This isn't Right Mart, honey.
You actually have
to wait your turn here.
SCUBA:
Ooh, she told you.
Someone's in trouble.
She told us.
[CHATTERING]
Uh, so, what-what are you guys
doing
for the Pats-Steelers game?
Probably watching at my place.
RYAN:
That sounds fun.
You can totally do that.
Or...
you could watch it with me
on the 50-yard line.
Wait.
SCUBA: What's up? Yo.
Bro, are you serious?
I swear. Hey...
Oh, my God.
Hoo-hoo-hoo!
RYAN: Yes, sir.
That's what's up.
Scuba, you know me.
Jess, brownie points.
[QUIETLY]: Very sweet.
I-I like this guy.
EVAN:
This guy.
[CONTINUES INDISTINCTLY]
All right.
Are you shits ready to order?
GABY:
Yes. Uh, can I do
the vanilla frappe?
All right. You want jimmies
on it?
Extra jimmies.
RYAN:
Garlic knots for the table?
EVAN: Garlic knots.
This isn't Papa Gino's, kids.

Evan, get the fuck down!

Well, I had two essays to write.
I'll hook you up next week.
You said that last month.

[SIREN CHIRPS]
OFFICER: Stay behind the line.
Oh, Sheriff, what happened?
Is this killing connected
to what happened at Right Mart?
Can we get this pushed back
a little bit?
Am I walking on anything?
What do you got for me?
Guys are going through
security footage inside.
Inside?
Sheriff.
Sheriff, can you tell us
anything...
Can you get these guys
out of the way?
Pete.
We found this where
the killer broke in.
What is this?
I think it's brick.
Or pieces of brick.
Right.
Labelle, you've met
Detective Chu, yeah?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, we met.
Come take a look at this.
Brick.
We got the killer
on security cam,
and you're not gonna believe
what he's wearing.
CHU:
Cameras at Right Mart
caught the same guy
lowering her legs
onto the sign from the roof.
It's just like you said,
Sheriff.
Everyone in town's
wearing them.
Yeah.
THOMAS [OVER PHONE]:
Jess, you know me.
I will not be bullied
by some freaking lunatic.
The store is staying open,
and I'm hiring extra security.
But, honey, I need you to get to
the sheriff's office now.
I know. We're going now.
Okay, but just ask anyone
who was there that night
to go talk to them.
Okay, okay. Bye.
I love you.
He's hiring additional security.
GABY:
But not closing the store.
Correct.
That would make sense.
Wait. Wait,
are you serious?
Did your dad not see
this guy tagged us?
Is he waiting for us
to be on a fucking display
in front of his store?
I'm asking him right now.
Why?
Scuba, don't.
Why the fuck not?
He gonna tag me,
I'm gonna send that motherfucker
a DM. Come get me, bitch.
Don't slide
into the killer's DMs.
Scuba, please,
just hold off, okay?
It's a murder case
in my dad's store.
We can't just fuck around.
Fuck around and find out.
EVAN: Fuck around and find out.
SCUBA: That's right.
He'll see
what happens.
[TIRES SCREECHING]
Are you crazy, McCarty?
Come on, princess.
I wouldn't hit you.
You know how much paperwork
the cops
would make me fill out?
McCarty, are you back
to finish tenth grade?
I just thought, you know,
in light of the current
situation,
you might want
a little "protection."
Courtesy of my old man's store.
McCarty, only you
would have the balls
to sell guns
at a high school.
I should kick your ass right
here.
Come on, Mark Cuban would
think I'm a fucking genius:
Everyone gets a gun,
problem solved.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Easy, Scooby snacks.
Jesus, I'm only kidding.
I wouldn't sell guns to kids.
I'm selling alcohol.
And right now I gotta meet
that little farthead Jacob
to sell him some more
McCarty Party tickets.
All right, McCarty.
Okay.
Sales are going
through the roof.
SCUBA: Fuck off, McCarty.
No one's coming to that.
You guys should come
YULIA: You're a creep.
It's the only place in town
you won't get killed.
[BELL TOLLING]
I could really use
your help, Jessica.
Uh, okay, what can I do?
CHU:
We've exhausted
pretty much every resource
to identify people, but anyone
involved with that night
could be in serious danger.
I knew I shouldn't have
let them in the store.
Detective, can you
give us a moment?
Yes.
EVAN:
If you look closely,
you can see all our names.
And-and then it's kind
of blurry, it says "Scuba."
Why do they call you Scuba?
My last name's Dybing.
What's your first name?
Claude.
Yeah, Scuba's better.
Jessica, you know,
I don't know what happened
with those cameras last year,
but at this point,
I don't care.
Because I understand you're
in a difficult situation.
But I know you want
to do the right thing.
So if you know something,
anything that can help us
with the information
on that night,
I promise I'll keep it
between us.
Because this is a matter
of life and death.

BOBBY:
Jess.
Saw you at the Cap yesterday.
No. I got in this morning.
You working for your uncle

I'm helping out
while I'm in town.
Well, I'm sure
I'll see you around.
Hey, Jess, wait.
I'm sorry.
Can I walk with you?
[VOICE-OVER]:
I mean, you ghosted me.
You're off social media.
You deleted every trace
of yourself.
I ghosted everybody.
Yeah, but I'm not everybody.
I was your girlfriend.
I blamed you for
what happened to me,
and instead of just
telling you about it,
I vanished, like a dick.
I feel so stupid now,
but I just...
Bobby, I feel horrible.
If I hadn't let you guys in...
No, don't.
Don't.
It-it was my decision.
I could have
stayed outside.
It's not your fault.
How's your arm?
I mean,
rehab's going great,
so I might get back up to
full-speed pitching again.
Golden Arm.
Yeah.
That's good.
I'm happy to hear it.
Hey. What is it?
Nothing.
You know, I'm still your friend.
You can trust me.
That night,
after the trampling,
Kathleen was in a panic,
ranting about
bad publicity
and getting sued, and...
[SIGHS]
she went into the security room
and deleted all the footage.
She asked me not
to say anything,
and I didn't stop her.
There's nothing you can
do about it now, so...
That's the thing.
Maybe there is.
Look, there's a backup system
at my house
in my dad's office.
Jess, that's probably long gone.
No, it stores the footage
for a year.
Then tell your dad you need it,
and then,
given the circumstances,
he prob...
No, no, no, no.
With the lawsuits, no way.
He's pretending like
it doesn't exist.
Well, what do you want to do?
I want to see what's on it.
Thanks for talking.
Yeah. It was really nice.
Oh, no, don't turn around.
It's Ryan Baker.
I'll get rid of him.
Hi, babe.
Hi.
How you doing? All right?
Yeah, yeah, fine.
Did you, um,
give your statement?
Yeah, I did, but they were
just looking to
identify people, and I didn't
know anybody except Scott,
so I didn't have much
to offer.
How you doing,
Bobby?
Well, I'm sorry to
break up this reunion,
but, uh, Bobby, could I see you
in my office?
This is new.
Yep. A lot's changed
since you left.
Looks like it.
All right,
let's get out of here.

He's brazen, confident.
He's spent a considerable
amount of time and energy
setting this up, but none
of this works unless he has
a private location where
he's taking the victims.
CHU:
He's powering off his phone
so we can't track him
on the move.
He's taking the picture
and then uploading it
from another location.
We have one bit of physical
evidence that leads us
to Cordage Park.

Oh, hi, Dad.
I was just using your computer.
Oh, it's fine. Listen...

I've been thinking
a lot about what you said.
You know, after Mom died,
the only thing that I
could do to survive was work.
Because it's all I know.
But work...
doesn't fill the void.
So, when I met Kathleen,
I felt alive again.
I was...
willing to just
overlook all flaws
and it might've...
been at your expense.
And I just want to say...
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
Love you, Dad.
Love you.
You find anything?
Yeah. Let's go.
Wait, what is it?
Nothing. Let's just go.
JESSICA:
I know this kid.
Lionel. He goes to our school.
He's always the turkey
in the parade.
And I-I know that guy.
He goes to Hanover South.
Evan punched him, remember?
JESSICA: Yeah,
he's the one
who started the riot.
He had the bullhorn.
BOBBY:
I think his name is...
Larry? Or Lonnie?
Or-Or something.
And she's probably
a cheerleader.
That's great, Bobby. Thank you.
Yeah.
Hey, w-what is it?
There's one more.
That's Ryan Baker.
He didn't know anyone
other than his roommate, huh?
ERIC:
And that's Doug.
The guard that got
crushed to death.
Jessica, did Ryan ever mention
to you that he knew Doug?
Because that certainly
wasn't in his statement.
No.
Yeah.
There may not be anything to it.
Be careful who you trust.
Both of you.
Yeah, don't worry.
I'll take care of Ryan today.
You're not taking care
of anything.
He just said
it could be nothing.
All right, fine, Jess.
If I see Ryan, I'll act
like nothing's weird.
For you.
You should get back to school.
But stay alert.
That's why I won't be
celebrating Thanksgiving
this year or any year.
You're so brave.

the piece that I have written...
uh, is titled "The Wampanoag

by Evan Fletcher.
"While today Thanksgiving
"is one of our nation's
favorite holidays,
"it has a very different meaning
"for many Native Americans.
"For the Wampanoag,
Thanksgiving is a day
of mourning."
That was beautiful, Evan.
I enjoyed hearing you read it.
As much as I enjoyed
writing it for my blog.

GABY:
When did you talk to him last?
JESSICA: Two days ago.
GABY: Was there a reason?
Yeah, there's a reason.
I never bought Ryan's
Mr. Perfect routine.
Yeah, I mean, how would he
know a random security guard
and why would he not
tell anybody?
I don't know.
Doug just moved here.
He was the new guy.
This guy have any family
in Plymouth?
I think his family's
in Nebraska.
I-I don't believe
for a second it was Ryan.
Doesn't make sense.
He's too nice.
Okay,

I mean, us.
It's all we got right now.
And, yes, I am excluding Bobby.
Bobby?
Wh... Bobby would never.
I told you, he was doing great.
No, you told us he told you
he was doing great.
That's different
than he's doing great.
For all we know,
he's not even at school,
and he's driving around
in that tow truck full time.
Wait, hey, hey. Why are we
even talking about them?
It's got to be Mitch. I mean,
he's obsessed with the store,
his wife just died,
and he hates us.
That's right! Yo, that guy's
up to his eyeballs in motive.
And he drives a van:
the official transportation
choice for pedophiles,
kidnappers, rapists,
murderers...
Yep, yep, you're right,
you're right.

Like Coach Ingalls says,
the best defense
is a good offense.
Me and you, we go after them,
fuck them up one by one.
Let's go, let's go.
And we'll get some, we'll get
some help from McCarty's store.
Guys. Evan. Babe.
This is not a game, okay?

I don't want to spend

You're right, Jess.
I'm in. Let's do this.
KATHLEEN: Look.
Right Mart has extra security,
so we don't have to worry
about the store. Okay?
And as far as I'm concerned,
the parade has been decided.
God, I do not want to be
dragged into this any further.
I mean, if you hadn't even gone
into the store,
this would've never happened.
Enough, Kathleen.
Don't you mean you?
You're the one who wanted
to open the store.
Nobody was
"Nostra-fucking-damus"
to predict what happened
last year.
Besides, this year,
I'm closing the store.
Thanksgiving's a holiday,
even for us.
Wait, honey, what?
Kathleen,
it's the right thing to do.
I made the decision.
It's final.
Sheriff, is there a way
to set a trap?
ERIC:
Well...
when the float returns
to the warehouse,
we can make it
look like it's empty.
Make him think there's
an opportunity to strike.

And if he takes the bait,
it'll be over
right there and then.

They were just greedy.
But you...
you're the VIPs.
It wasn't enough to get
in the store early.
You had to
taunt everyone outside
to show them
how special you were.
Well, once this video
goes viral,
everyone will know
how special you are.
Too bad you won't be alive
to see it.
This will be the most famous
Thanksgiving dinner
