The Last Kiss (2026) Movie Script
1
It's rumored by historians
that kissing began
millions of years ago
from mouth-to-mouth feeding
moms would do for their babies.
Yuck.
And the first recorded instance
of the romantic kiss
was 3,500 years ago
in what is now India.
Since then, kissing
has meant many things.
A New Year's kiss.
Kissing under mistletoe.
Sealed with a kiss.
You may now kiss the bride.
But kissing is also dangerous.
Mono is called
the kissing disease,
and kissing was a big no-no
during the black plague.
Kissing killed people.
But...
whatever the origin
of two people
smacking their lips together is,
it survived thousands of years
to torture girls like me.
We grew up
with true love's kiss.
The fairy tales,
those damned Disney movies
where true love's kiss
had the power to break curses.
Girls like me grow up
with these stories wondering,
"Could that ever happen for me?"
I know, it's not cool
to be a romantic anymore.
A romantic is naive,
willfully ignorant
of the darkness in this world.
But...
maybe, just maybe...
...it could happen for me.
Focus.
Operation First Kiss is a go.
Sorry, I'm here.
Hey, girls. Come on, let's go.
Doo-doo-doo-doo,
doo-doo-doo-doo...
It seems I'm one of
the only people left
at East Hart High who hasn't
had their first kiss.
My best friend Poppy had hers
last summer at soccer camp.
She scored the winning point
and then smacked one
on the goalie.
Chuck says his first kiss
was on a Zamboni
with a cheerleader.
But then he fell off
and broke his tooth on the ice.
For Tyler, it was while doing
physics homework
with a classmate.
But his mom walked in
and ruined the moment.
Bree's was on a dare
at a concert.
She ran onstage
and kissed the guitar player.
Evan's was on a volunteer trip
he went on
while on the front steps of a
house they both helped to build.
And Leo...
I actually don't know.
You're getting your first kiss
on Valentine's Day.
-Shh. Shut up.
-It's giving romance novel.
You're gonna jinx me.
It's like
you're inviting disaster.
You don't even know
if anything's gonna happen.
No, no, no, don't talk
like that. Come on.
-You got it. You got it.
-Oh.
Go, go, go, go, go. Go.
Abort mission. I'm gonna barf.
- Turn around.
- Everybody,
- pair up with a buddy.
- Hey, Laurel.
Want to buddy up?
- Yeah.
- Cooler seasons
are not known
for their blossoms,
but there are some rare species
that are the most beautiful
in the dark of winter.
Soak it all in, guys.
What's that for?
I don't know.
It's a walking stick.
Okay.
How do you get the bark
to look so real?
You're definitely
the most talented here.
Hey, Ms. Stark complimented
the details of your pine.
I think you're the talented one.
Yeah, right.
I'll be selling pet sketches,
and you'll have paintings
in the Guggenheim.
Well, then... here.
You can sell it
for millions one day.
Move forward!
Stay single file if you can,
and then take it all in.
If you guys are lucky and you
look over the side here...
Careful.
...you might see some salmon!
Smell that fresh air!
- Right there.
- You're not scared, are you?
Hey, Bree.
- Ooh.
- Oh, my God.
Look at that, guys.
Catch.
How lucky are we
to be out here right now?
Look there.
Hey, guys!
I need a pic!
This is stunning!
Squeeze together.
Oh, picture... picture time.
- Okay, okay, okay.
- Come on, get together!
I need to see everybody's faces!
Why does your mom have
to come with us
-to every school thing, huh?
-Shut up.
Every time.
Yeah, that's it!
Maybe, just maybe...
it could happen for me.
Uh, okay, let's do a silly one.
Hey, stop.
Stop it, stop it, stop it.
Stop. Stop, stop.
Chuck.
I got it.
Mom!
Mom.
Mom.
Mom.
Mom? Mom.
Stand up.
I can't do it. I can't.
It-it's okay, hon.
Just breathe.
Take deep breaths, honey.
You're okay.
Come on, come on, wake up.
Poppy.
Laurel, she's okay.
Just go check on Leo.
Hey.
Hey. Hey.
Hey.
Leo?
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Remember you are strong
and capable
and your anxieties
do not rule you.
You are safe.
You are capable.
With each breath, let the guilt
of past events melt away.
I'm seeing and feeling
that this window is secure.
I'm seeing and feeling
that this window is secure.
Ready?
You'll take it easy
your first day back, right?
Yes, ma'am.
Yeah, easy-peasy.
I know you don't want
to go back.
Just remember, the doctor said
it is very important
for you to get back
to your life.
Laurel. Laurel!
A mother
and her teenage daughter died
tragically in a house fire.
Hey.
Are you doing it again?
No. Doing what?
That railing is made
of balsa wood,
and that is so flammable,
and we really ought to have,
like, a fire escape ladder
underneath that window,
and you told me that you were
gonna change the bulb to LED.
Laurel.
You've got this.
I'm proud of you.
Hmm?
And-- I love you.
Huh?
Hey, Laurel.
You're back.
As a welcome gift, I have
an insane investment opportunity
for you.
My new crypto app uses
the miracle of blockchain to--
Wait, let me show--
Oh, I'm getting it.
Wait, Laurel. Hey, Laurel.
Come on.
Laurel. Welcome back.
Thanks, Principal Yang.
I hope your time away
was a healing one.
It's been a challenging year
for everyone
since losing Leo.
Hard as a principal, but also
a time of loss as a dad
seeing so much taken
from Poppy with her injury.
You know, since she lost soccer,
she's been really trying
to find herself.
Anyway, I-I know you two
had a falling out, but I--
I think I'm gonna be
late to class.
Okay.
Glad to have you back.
Thank you.
Chuck. Get off that trash can.
Laurel.
Attention, please.
East Hart High students,
love is in the air,
and it's finally time
for our Enchanted Garden
Valentine's Dance!
Your donations will go
towards throwing
the sickest dance
any school has ever had.
Invest in next-level decor,
a fire DJ,
and direct your eyes
at handsome Tyler
showing off our stunning venue,
the Conservatory!
Dress to impress
and bring your sweetheart.
It's time to kiss
under the stars.
Give them hell!
Give them hell!
Laurel?
Laurel.
Laurel, you're back.
Hey, Noah.
My brother would have been
so embarrassed by this.
Gold-plated. Not his style.
He never would've wanted to be
the center of attention
like this.
We have a school Bible club now.
-Oh.
-You should come.
Oh.
Thanks. I mean, I just don't
know if that's my thing.
You know, you don't have
to carry this pain alone.
My brother wouldn't have
wanted you to.
Noah, buddy.
Principal Yang was just
looking for you.
Something about double-booking
the rehearsal space.
-Hi.
-Hey.
Sorry. Thanks.
No, you're good. Good.
Noah's a good guy. He's...
just a little intense.
Yeah.
I'm glad to see
that you're back, though.
Yeah, well,
that makes one of us.
Do you want to go see, uh,
a game tomorrow?
With me and Bree?
Yeah, I just... I don't know
if I'm really, like,
a hockey kind of girl.
Oh, no, no, we don't... I mean,
we don't really go
for the hockey.
The cheer team, they-they have,
like, this new routine,
-so Bree and I are gonna
watch that and... -Oh.
She can drive us,
so we-we can pick you up,
if-if you want.
Big crowds, tall rafters,
loud noises.
It's just not really my thing.
Okay.
What if I, uh,
promise to bring earmuffs
and-and-and to keep you safe?
Hey.
How are you?
Three teenagers died today
when their Jeep rolled over
across four lanes of traffic
this afternoon
on the way to the mall.
Yeah, no, I, um...
I can't.
Are you okay?
I can't.
Um, this car is just...
-The...? Oh.
-The-the car, um...
-I can't.
-No, no, it's okay.
You sure?
I'm sorry. You can...
It's me.
You can go. Uh, enjoy the game.
I'm sorry. I-I just...
I-I can't do this.
Um...
Okay.
Hey.
Can I help?
I don't know. It...
It doesn't make sense.
For some reason,
my brain is just
obsessed with all danger now.
I, um...
as of, uh, what,
like a-a year ago,
I started really getting into
disaster videos.
Like shipwrecks and typhoons
and... bridge collapses.
-Shut up.
-What?
No, I'm not the only freak?
-No way.
-Yes.
Yes, I'm serious.
I'm over here thinking, like,
I'm opening up and...
No, uh...
-What's your favorite?
-My favorite? Uh...
-Mm-hmm.
-35W.
-That one hits close to home.
-Ooh, stop.
-I've watched that one
so many times. -Oh, really?
Yes, what...?
What is that? Why-why does
watching disaster videos
make me feel safer?
They're oddly comforting, right?
I... I'm broken. I don't know.
I...
My theory is that...
my brain is trying
to stop itself
from experiencing
more intense things.
You know, like, I-I...
I think it's so hard
to even think clearly
half of the time,
and so I know that I can't
control life, obviously,
but as long as I know that
I'm doing everything in my power
to stop more bad things
from happening.
Laurel...
I-I'm so sorry a-about Leo,
but that's not your fault.
Debatable.
But, um...
-Thank you.
-Yeah.
Thanks.
Uh...
It's, uh,
it's getting kind of late.
I should probably...
Yeah, I'm sorry.
No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for keeping you.
No, no, it's... it was great.
I'm...
-Uh...
-I, um...
I've been meaning to say this
for a... a long time.
Um...
I really like you.
I've... I just never had
the-the guts to say it before,
but it-it's important
to face our fears, right?
So I, um...
I-I did 'cause I said it.
But, no, it's, um...
it's late, so...
Not a star was shining
Rain was falling down
Then like a bolt
Of lightning
Tragedy in town
You won't read it
in the paper
And regrets will be few...
I...
Uh...
Laurel, what was that?
-Are you okay?
-I'm fine!
Hey. Hey, dude.
Laurel.
Um, I just want
to let you know that
you didn't miss anything
last night.
That game was so boring.
Then we went
to Tyler's afterwards,
and his mom is away, so,
you know, it was full chaos.
Hey, Bree.
Laurel.
Hey.
Hi.
Um...
-I'm sorry about last night.
-What?
I should've, like, asked...
asked for permission
before kissing you.
I-I know that's what
you're supposed to do,
but, like, sometimes
it can be a little bit,
you know, um... awkward.
Sorry, I'm... I'm sorry.
I-I'm the weirdo that, like,
screamed in your face
after you were,
you were really nice.
Yeah, yeah, no, the-the scream
was a little startling.
-A little hard on
my self-esteem, but... -Oh.
I'm...
I don't know how to explain it,
but I promise, I didn't...
I didn't scream because of you.
You sure?
So sure. Completely positive.
Okay.
I don't know, maybe I...
I'm not ready yet.
Just...
Can we take things kind of slow?
Yeah.
No, yeah, to-totally.
I-I mean, I... I won't be here
for a couple of weeks.
I leave tomorrow morning,
so, um...
May-Maybe we could, like, go
to the-the Valentine's Dance?
I-I don't know
if that's too fast.
If it is, it's fine.
Yeah. No, of course.
I-I mean, only if you
start wearing a helmet.
Nah.
They don't even,
they don't even fit on my head.
Okay, well, even if you
feel like you don't need it,
it makes people
who care about you feel better.
By "people," I mean me,
'cause I care about you.
Okay.
Tragedy in town.
Okay.
Bye.
It's not real.
Dude, dude, dude,
don't draw a dick.
-What?
-My mom's gonna see it.
-Okay, okay.
-Come on.
Oh, that's much better.
It's real.
So you're saying that
you kissed your boyfriend,
and then you saw him die?
He's not my boyfriend.
But, honey,
do you honestly think
that when you kiss someone
you can see the future?
I don't know.
You know what?
I believe you.
I believe you saw those things.
-That doesn't make them real.
-Mom.
Okay, what happened on the
bridge, it wasn't your fault.
There was nothing
you could have done.
Okay, well, now maybe there is.
Or maybe getting close
to someone again feels scary.
I mean, I guess.
Big emotional experiences.
It can cause distress.
-Delusions, even.
-God, Mom.
You're not...
you're not listening to me.
I am trying to make sense of it.
I don't want you
to have to go back to Brookside.
Why would you even say that?
You can't send me back.
I worked so hard to get out.
Six months was torture.
I know, but...
do you sincerely believe
that these visions are real?
No.
I'm not hungry, Mom.
Mom.
-I said I'm not hungry.
-Lo?
Poppy.
-Hey.
-Hey. What are you doing here?
Your mom let me in.
I saw what happened at school,
so I wanted
-to see if you're okay.
-Oh.
I mean, you could have
just, like, called
or texted about that.
Yeah, but you ignore my calls,
my texts,
DMs, Snaps, my carrier pigeons.
God, those are so expensive!
Sorry.
Oh. Oh.
CPR-certified,
emergency preparedness.
You know Krav Maga?
Sick.
You've been busy.
Yeah, I mean, so have you.
I've seen your posts.
You're, like, skydiving,
cliff jumping, and...
Yeah, lots of
falling activities.
Yeah, whee.
What else you been up to?
You were gone like all semester.
Oh, I don't know.
Just... that stuff and...
resting, I guess.
Yeah.
I wanted to talk
for a while now.
I wanted to apologize.
You did?
Yeah.
I was a pretty shitty friend
end of last year.
I went kind of wild
after the accident,
and you wanted to stay home
and feel safe.
And it felt limiting to me
when I wanted to
make danger my bitch,
but that was shitty.
And I shouldn't have
called you boring.
'Cause you're not boring.
And I really miss you.
I miss you so much.
And can we just
be besties again?
Yeah, I mean,
it's my fault, too.
I mean, I just... I don't know.
You were, like, flourishing,
and I was just shriveling,
-and I...
-No.
I didn't want
to hold you back anymore,
and so I just
started ignoring you.
I missed you so much, Popsicle.
Oh.
I missed you so much, Lolo.
I wish we could've been there
for each other.
But you know what?
We have time now.
-Tyler's my new boo.
-I saw.
I kissed all the frogs
at school----
but I found Prince Charming.
And we're going
to the dance together.
-Yay.
-Yay!
Aw, I missed your room.
Everything's so cute.
Oh, I like this mirror.
Cute.
-I like these...
-Oh, uh...
What? Oh, my God.
-Whoa, what is that?
-Nothing.
Wait, why do you have
a murder board in your canopy?
Oh, yeah,
it's getting really late, Poppy.
-You should leave.
-Do you have a murder canopy?
-What are you talking about? No.
-Mm, pretty sure you do.
You have Chuck and Evan's photos
-labeled "victims" in there.
-No.
What are you trying to do?
Are you gonna murder them?
What? No. I'm not...
God. You...
You wouldn't believe me
if I told you.
Go, try me.
Whenever...
I think that
whenever I kiss people...
- You're kissing people?
- Yes!
-Stop it. That's not the point.
-Yes, Lolo! Yes!
Whenever I do, I think I can
see how they're gonna die.
See you later, Sunflower.
-Poppy.
-What'd you see?
Well, you were elderly
and you died peacefully in bed.
God, that's so boring.
Was I at least rich?
Eh. I mean, I-I think you
looked kind of well-off.
Yeah. I knew I could do whatever
I want and it wouldn't kill me.
-Mm.
-Okay, what else? More details.
Uh, you had a grown daughter,
and your last words to her were,
"See you later, Sunflower."
Wait, those were my mom's
last words to me.
They were?
I never told anybody.
That's crazy.
Do you believe me?
I don't know.
I mean, I guess it makes sense,
'cause trauma can trigger
people's third eye,
sixth sense, ESP.
And I'm pretty spiritual,
and I believe in the multiverse
and other realms,
so why not this?
As long as it's not
harming anyone,
I got to advocate for
all levels of human perception.
Yeah.
Yeah, okay, I like that.
Yeah. Hail my all-seeing queen!
Cool.
I-I mean...
The thing is...
Huh?
Evan kissed me...
Evan kissed you?
Come on, that's so cute.
-I'm living!
-Shut up.
-He liked you for so long.
-What?
Who was gonna tell me?
That's not the point.
Whenever he did,
I had a vision of him
getting stabbed to death.
Murder.
By whom?
I don't know, that's that thing.
And-and Chuck was there, too,
and he was dead,
and there was, like,
a pile of bodies.
It was like a massacre.
It is kind of dark, Lo.
I know. Hence the murder canopy.
Oh.
Okay.
Okay, no, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I like it.
Let's, uh, let's do it.
Let's figure it out.
-Really?
-Come on, come on.
-Mm-hmm.
-I mean, I feel like
I'd almost feel a little better
if you were kind of skeptical.
-Ah, come on, girl.
-Oh.
Who would want to kill Evan?
Or Chuck, even?
He's annoying
but not, like, murder annoying.
Oh, oh, there was, uh,
this weird song
playing in the forest. Listen.
Who knows how it happened?
-Ooh, old-timey. Creepy.
-It's not for me to say...
But it's giving off a vibe,
though, I'm not gonna lie.
I don't know, there's still
so much information I need.
Like-like clues on the killer,
where this forest is.
It's obvi what you
got to do next.
-It is?
-Yeah.
You got to...
-...kiss Chuck.
-Kiss Chuck?
-Yes.
-No.
Yes, exactly. Why not?
'Cause if you see how he dies,
you might get clues
on who the killer is.
How? Chuck would never kiss me.
What? Regressive much?
So you kiss him.
It's perfect.
Tyler's having another hang
at his place this weekend
'cause his mom's in New York
for work.
No, you-you don't get it.
My social anxiety is at, like,
an all-time high right now.
And I'm not his ice bunny type.
I'm, I'm more like a house rat.
- No.
- No, in a good way.
I'm very comfortable with it.
I-I'm, like, in the walls with
a blanket and a cup of tea.
Okay, okay, that's cute.
I like it, but that's why...
What?
No, not a...
-makeover.
-Makeover!
Isn't doing a makeover
to get a guy's attention
kind of antiquated?
It is indeed
a feminism faux pas,
but lives are at stake.
And it's not like
you're changing forever.
It's drag, baby.
And it's just for one kiss.
You got to approach
a guy like Chuck
like you would a squirrel.
Carefully,
as not to scare him off
'cause they can get really
distracted easy and run away.
And you got to let him think
that he's smarter than you.
The guy who thought
the Slow Food movement
meant eating dumb chickens?
Oh, come on, pretend.
It's an acting challenge.
Okay. Dah-dah!
Whoa.
You are good at this.
Yeah.
Yes! Let's go.
The clock goes on and on
But I think the timing's off
for once
Whoo!
It's something that makes...
Okay, we're talking cute,
we're talking floofy.
In the 1900s, what'd they say?
Ditzy? Ditzy.
Okay, go, go.
Chuck.
Whoa.
Laurel, what are you wearing?
This? I don't know.
Do you like it?
I mean, I guess.
Weird seeing a mole person
like you dress hot, though.
Confusing.
You're so funny.
I'm confused, too.
-Yeah?
-Um, you're so smart.
Could you help me with, like,
my calc homework sometime?
I'm-I'm in algebra one, my dude.
You're a senior.
- Yeah.
- Hey, Two Buck.
Go long. Go long. Hey.
Oh!
What the hell, Chuck?
-You okay?
-Yeah, is there a bathroom?
-Yeah, upstairs. Want help?
-No.
Oh, my... Laurel.
Oh. Sorry.
Come on.
- I will.
- Sorry.
Ah, who's that?
It's okay. It's just Laurel.
Hi, Mrs. McKinney.
Oh, hi, hon. What you all doing?
Sorry, I didn't mean
to interrupt.
It's just me here, so I...
What?
She knows I have people over.
It's fine.
Oh.
Yeah, just make sure
you clean up
before I get back from New York.
I will.
- Okay. Bye-bye.
- Love you.
I'm so sorry.
I... Chuck spilled all over me,
so I was looking
for the bathroom.
Just don't call the cops, okay?
Ha ha, very funny.
I'm not gonna call the cops
on you.
Uh, your mom even seems very
surprisingly chill with this.
I mean, she's not mad at all
that you're having
a house party?
My... my mom would kill me.
No, no, not at all.
After what happened, you know,
to Leo,
we promised each other
no more regrets.
And then you climbed
Mount Everest together?
Not yet.
No, she took a promotion
she'd been passing up
because she was afraid
it was too much travel.
And, you know, I kicked things
into high gear.
I studied harder,
I got into Yale.
I finally told Poppy
that I liked her.
Geez, yeah,
your, uh, post-trauma journey
is a lot more inspiring
than mine.
It's never too late to take
charge and change the future.
Do you have a Sharpie
I can borrow?
All my, all my,
all my sanity
She want talk, she want play,
she want half of me
Pockets empty, sleepy dreaming
'bout a rack of Gs
Nigga, pass the weed,
I could smoke like half a tree
Running faster than...
Hey. Oh, you look different.
Hi. I'll be back.
Hey, Chuck.
Can I, like, sign your cast?
Uh, okay.
On your head,
red dead like a pack of meat
Um...
is it true that you're, like,
the best varsity goalie
in all the Midwest?
Hell yeah.
Nothing gets past
Two Buck Chuck.
That's, like, so hot.
Did you know that, uh,
athletic prowess is, like,
number one on my list
of attractive traits?
Do you want to, like,
show me your skills?
Hell yeah!
Come on.
Do your worst, peasants.
Whoo!
Show me what you got!
-What are you doing?
-Um...
I thought you liked Evan.
No, I-I do. I was...
It was nothing.
I was signing his cast.
Laurel, come on,
you're not watching.
Laurel.
-Laurel.
-Yeah.
Looks like nothing.
Bree...
Hey.
How's it going?
- I need help.
- Whoo!
Oh, my God.
Oh.
Let's go!
Hey, Chuck.
Whoo!
Oh. Oh, no.
Ow.
Ow.
Oh, my God, Chuck.
I'm so sorry.
Laurel, don't you have
a first aid kit?
Yes. Yes, I do.
I know, Chuck. Come on.
- Don't move.
- Okay.
-Two more.
-Okay.
You're gonna be all right,
buddy.
Okay. Ready?
-Ow.
-Okay, okay.
How many left, two?
- One.
- One?
-Do you want me to count?
-Yeah, yeah.
-Okay, I'm gonna count.
-Okay.
-Three, two, one.
-Okay.
Ready?
Three...
Oh.
My mom's gonna kill me.
Is this gonna scar?
She's always telling me
how being an idiot
is going to ruin
my handsome face.
Yeah, no, it's not gonna scar.
Just keep putting Neosporin
on it, and you'll be fine.
Here.
I can have it?
Yeah.
I have buckets of this stuff.
Damn, you're like a...
like a safety smarty-pants, huh?
-Uh...
-That's-that's pretty cool.
I guess if obsessively needing
to be in control of everything
that could go wrong is cool,
then yeah, so cool.
Yeah.
I'm sorry, dude.
Like, what happened on the
bridge, it-it was messed up.
And, um, I feel bad about being
a dickhead before we fell.
You know, sometimes,
you know, I-I st...
I have nightmares
about falling and stuff, so...
I'm sorry, Chuck.
Oh!
Oh, excuse me.
Ow.
Who knows how it happened?
It's not
For me to say
To say...
Tragedy in town.
I'm down to swap spit,
but, like,
I don't see you like that,
Laurel.
Uh, I'm sorry.
What's that?
It's an airsoft mask.
Okay.
That's, uh,
that-that's Zolly, Bree and...
Oh, Leo.
They all have the same mask.
I didn't know he played.
Zolly Peppercorn
and Bree Williams.
One of them has got
to be the killer.
I mean, Bree is, like,
Evan's best friend,
so I doubt it,
and then Zolly is, like...
I mean, he's Zolly.
Do we really think
he's capable of murder?
Eh, people have
secret grudges, vendettas.
Okay, let's say one of them
is the killer.
I mean, how-how would knowing
how they die even help us?
If-if they never get caught,
then they could die
in any number of ways,
and then we get nowhere.
Or one of them dies
of a lethal injection
and Evan and Chuck's parents
are in the execution room.
Uh! Case closed!
You're not gonna
find out unless you kiss 'em.
Why couldn't you have gotten
these powers?
Mm.
'Cause I'd be too powerful,
endangering the entire
human race.
I mean, how am I even supposed
to kiss the both of them?
I mean, Bree is so pissed
at me right now,
I can barely even, like,
approach her,
let alone kiss her.
I have an idea.
You can kiss two birds
with one stone,
but you're not gonna like it.
What?
Laurel party, Laurel party.
No. No.
I don't throw parties.
I-I-I awkwardly attend them
at best.
Oh.
Uh, why-why can't Tyler
just throw another one?
No, you have to host it
so you can control the scene.
Okay? Like who attends
and what the activities are.
And I can't host it
'cause, uh, hosting a party
at the principal's place
doesn't really work.
Uh-uh, no, I...
That's worse than having
to kiss people. I...
-What?
-I don't want to be responsible
for underage drinking.
And my house is so small,
it's gonna be, like,
a safety hazard.
And my mom would never let me.
She doesn't have to know.
She's going on a date
this Friday.
Diane and I talk.
Okay, fine.
We'll let our friends
get slaughtered in the woods.
Enjoy your night out.
You look so hot. Go get some.
Mm, well, don't wait up for me.
Ew, gross.
Have a fun movie night.
Thank you.
No, I'm gonna be sick.
I don't lie to my mom.
No, who's gonna...?
Nobody's gonna know.
-No, she's gonna know.
-No, how would they know?
Party time!
Laurel party's looking good.
Do you think we're ready?
Uh, Bree, check.
Of course I can give you
a belly button piercing.
Zolly, check.
And, my friend, your investment
will quadruple.
Okay.
Chug, chug, chug.
Okay, let's do this.
Uh, guys!
Uh...
Guys, I have an idea!
Let's play spin the bottle!
No, boo. Boring.
We're not doing that.
-No, way.
-I'm down.
Yeah, come on, let's just do it.
Whoo! It's giving
middle school nostalgia.
Let's go. It's smoochy time.
Don't pretend like you don't
want to. Let's go.
- Look, I'll start.
- All righty.
Oh, yeah,
that's, like, off-limits.
-Boo. No, no, this was
your idea. -No, come on.
You got to do it.
- Don't be a frickin' chicken,
Laurel. - Do it.
- Boo.
- It's okay. It's okay.
It's okay. I'm a sharer.
I'm a sharer.
-Go for it. Go for it.
-She's a sharer.
Whoa.
Okay, this just got interesting.
Okay, anyway, who's next?
Hey, I'll go.
- On me. It's on me.
- All right, let's go.
- Oh.
- Ooh.
- Really?
- Bree.
Boo.
What was that?
Like you mean it, bitch.
Better kiss.
Better kiss. Better kiss.
Better kiss.
Wow.
Ow!
Whoa, settle down, you guys.
I'm next. I'm next.
I'm-a deep sea dive...
Well, Laurel.
Take an East Side drive...
This is your lucky day.
I guess so.
Mm.
Mm.
Blockchain...
Guys, he's choking.
Call 911.
Oh, no way.
What?
Um...
No, it's just...
Uh, no, sorry,
just your breath is deadly.
That's...
I would stay very far away
from those
if you want anybody
to talk to you at college.
Uh...
Uh, well, I didn't mean it
like that.
-It's...
-No.
Hey, you know, I really
don't need your pity, okay?
Okay, I'm out of here!
-Zolly. -There's mouthwash
in the bathroom.
It's gonna be okay, Zolly.
Zolly.
It's okay.
What the heck was that?
Shut up.
Okay, who's up?
Someone spin.
Okay, are we gonna
continue this game or what?
Guys, wait, I'm going?
Chuck. Okay, Chuck, spin.
You want me to go?
Whoa.
Is that allowed?
You scared?
Do it.
Do it. Do it.
-Come on.
-Do it.
Do it. Do it.
Shut up.
I know that I'll get over
The one who let me down
Then I'll be free from
This tragedy in town.
If it's not you, then who is it?
- What?
- What?
What?
Uh, Evan.
-What?
-Wh...?
Evan. Hey, I-I...
What are you doing back
so early?
I-I didn't...
You were the one who told me
that y-you wanted
to take things slow,
and-and I respected that.
I didn't think you were gonna
go behind my back
and kiss my best friend.
-I'm sorry. -Yeah,
did you really kiss Chuck, too?
Because Bree is telling me
all this stuff
about how you have been
acting weird
after Poppy and you
become friends again, and...
I wish that I could explain.
I-I... I have a good reason.
I-I swear.
Then say it.
Can we just...
...take a pause
with things between us?
Evan.
Think of a place I would go
I'm daydreamin'...
I can't say I'm trying
to save your life
because I'm having visions.
Just, I sound crazy.
-Oh.
-And... we did all of this,
and we're no closer
to finding the killer.
Everybody who was a suspect
is a victim.
And then, I mean, Tyler?
I'm so sorry.
No, it's okay.
It's okay, 'cause you know what?
No one's gonna die.
We're gonna find out the uggo
who's doing this,
and we're gonna just
gather more clues.
Kiss more people. It'll be fun.
I am so messed up from Leo
that now whenever I kiss someone
I see the most horrific moment
of their life.
I mean, what, what if even if
we stop these murders,
what if the visions don't stop?
And then I'm just broken
like this forever and I'm alone?
Hey, you're not broken.
-Well, you don't know that.
-I do.
Okay, I do.
And you're never gonna be alone
'cause my ass is glued to you.
And when we stop this
from happening,
you're gonna find out
that kissing can save lives.
It'll be cool.
What the...? Laurel!
Mom? Um, you're back?
Yeah, it was a shit date.
Everyone, get out of my house.
Party's over.
Go. Get out.
Laurel, you lied to me?
I'm sorry.
What happened?
-Did something happen?
-No.
-It's okay. I...
-You know, it's not okay.
This is so unlike you.
It's not her fault. I promise,
I promise, it was my idea.
- Your idea?
- Yeah.
Poppy, Laurel just got out of
an institution...
Mom, don't!
...and her mental health
is very fragile.
This is not the kind of
influence she needs right now.
I didn't know that.
You need to go home.
I'm calling your dad.
And you two, you're gonna
take a break from each other.
No, no, it was my idea...
I don't care.
I don't care, Poppy.
Go home.
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
And, Laurel, you are grounded.
Since I first met you
Thought I could forget you
-And then
-Hello?
We kissed good night
I knew you were dynamite
Aha
I knew you were dynamite
Hello?
Baby, I love you
Honey, I need you
And, darling, I want you so
I'll never let you go
Ah, ah, ah
When I'm in your a-a-arms
Man, you've got
The cha-a-arm
Then you kiss my li-i-ips
My heart does a doggone flip
Baby, I love you
Honey, I need you
And, darling,
I want you so...
Hello?
Uh, Ranger Pauline?
I need help identifying a plant.
Is anyone there?
Hello?
Pauline?
Hello?
Uh, Ranger Pauline?
Come on.
No, no, no, please.
Come on, Ranger Pauline.
Hey!
Shit.
There was someone else
inside the greenhouse.
I swear.
Pauline did not
do this to herself.
They drugged her.
And the killer took my backpack
and my things and my sketchbook.
Honey.
The officers said Pauline
hadn't been well.
And that she was in and out
of recovery since the accident
and she was really struggling.
Our stunning venue,
the Conservatory!
It happens at the dance.
Hi.
I-I need to talk
to the sergeant.
No, I-I don't want to leave
another message.
Something awful
is going to happen
at the East Hart
Valentine's Dance.
It-it's at the Conservatory.
You have to get it shut down.
Hello?
They were all on the bridge.
Poppy?
Hey, I got your messages.
Everyone getting killed
was on the bridge.
There's only one person
with a motive to kill everybody
-that survived that fall.
-Who?
It's Noah.
What?
Noah?
- Shh. I have to go.
- What?
I'm seeing and feeling
that this window is secure.
Hey!
What song is that?
It's for my church band.
You're really good.
Have you always been religious?
Our parents took us to church
when we were younger,
but it wasn't for me
until last year.
That must've been hard on you.
God gives us what we can handle.
Yeah, but...
some have to handle
so much more than others.
Everyone has their struggles.
But not like you.
I mean, everyone else
on the bridge survived.
It-it doesn't make you angry?
After my brother passed,
I was angry.
At Ranger Pauline.
At... you.
Now I trust that God has a plan,
and it's not for me to question.
I just need to play my part.
Stop. I'm not interested.
I'm sorry.
Hey, just go.
Sorry.
Laurel Hansen.
I need to see you, Laurel.
-Now.
-Principal Yang.
I'm so glad you found me.
I have to talk to you.
I know that it's not
gonna be popular,
but you have to cancel
the dance.
Please, it's for the safety
of your students.
What are you doing?
Following up on a tip
the office received.
What kind of tip?
Laurel.
We have a zero-tolerance policy
when it comes to weapons.
That isn't mine.
It sure isn't.
It's the Ranger's.
Did you take this?
You were there
-when she was found.
-No, I-I... Why would I...
Who else has one of those keys?
No one.
Which is why you are expelled,
effective immediately.
Principal Yang, I...
...a time of loss as a dad,
seeing so much taken
from Poppy with her injury.
Mom, you can't send me back.
Brookside is not a punishment.
Well, it feels like one.
Laurel, you're regressing,
and I need you to be better.
-Truly better.
-I am better!
Look, I know that
I have been intense,
but this is not like last time.
I did not bring that knife
to school.
Somebody is framing me.
We're going to Brookside now.
End of discussion.
Mom, terrible things
are going to happen.
-I have to stop them.
-Okay, honey,
you are... you are
breaking my heart.
Mom, please.
I don't know how
to keep you safe.
Okay?
I wish I did, but...
but I need help.
We're going tonight.
Mom, no.
What on earth?
What the hell?
-Uh...
-Laurel?
- Uh, I can explain.
- What?
Dad, she tried to kiss you.
-I-I-I... No, I didn't.
-What?
-I'm calling your mother.
-No, please.
You two girls stay right here.
I...
Laurel, what the hell?
Please, I can explain.
Noah is the perfect suspect
except for one thing.
I don't know how he would've
gotten your dad's keys
and put the knife in my locker.
And-and today I noticed
that your dad wears
the same sneakers
as all the students.
What are you saying?
His daughter, with her whole
future ahead of her,
gets this life-altering injury
and-and the future
that he has for her shattered.
Maybe he's angry at everyone
who got to walk away
from the accident
like it didn't happen.
Okay, well, there's...
there's another person
who was on the bridge
who isn't a victim.
Me?
-Yeah.
-Well...
Okay, that's fair.
No, no, why would I go
on a kissing spree
of all of my victims to pretend
to see how they're gonna die?
I don't know.
It makes as much sense
as my dad, the principal,
killing his students because
his daughter broke her leg.
Then why is everybody
who was on the bridge
a victim except for us?
What are you saying,
that I'm the murderer?
I don't know.
I don't...
No, I don't know.
Stop. Okay, stop.
It's scaring me.
What if, what if
none of this is real?
-No.
-What if your mom's right?
Your mental health is fragile.
What if?
This... Poppy.
Please, please.
What... what about what I saw
you say on your deathbed?
"See you later, Sunflower"?
You told me that you'd never
told anybody that before.
Maybe I told you and I forgot,
okay? It can be explained.
Poppy, please.
What if all of this is real?
Please, I'm scared.
I can't do this anymore.
I'm sorry.
Hey.
I'm an asshole.
What?
Everything with Leo,
it really messed me up,
and-and everybody knows that.
I don't know, somehow...
you saw more in me
than just a messed-up girl.
All the stories
and princess movies,
they all end with a kiss.
But whenever you kissed me,
that's when it started.
When what started?
This overwhelming feeling
that I would lose you.
And I guess it just triggered
all these things in my head,
and I'm...
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
You said this first,
and I think you were right--
we should maybe
take things slow.
And I think that's probably
what's best.
Um, like, we can start off
with little things.
We can walk to school together.
I can't go to school.
What? Why?
Look...
I'm sorry.
Like a bolt of lightning...
And regrets will be few...
-What are you doing?
-It's Noah.
Oh, it's Noah.
Poppy. Oh, it changed.
What are you talking about?
I'm trying to save your life.
Laurel.
I have been looking everywhere
for you.
-No.
-Evan.
Look, look, look, look.
Look, if you go to the dance,
you're gonna die.
-No, no. What?
-Look at me. Look...
-What's going on?
-Don't go to the dance.
Don't go to the dance,
or you're gonna die!
Noah's gonna kill you.
He's gonna kill Chuck
and Bree and Poppy.
He killed Ranger Pauline.
Mom, he's gonna kill
all of my friends.
Please listen to me.
I'm not crazy!
Evan, don't go to the dance!
Please!
10:00 a.m. group therapy session
will begin shortly in Room B.
Get out of my room.
Stay away!
This is different
from last time.
You're 18.
This is the adult ward.
One call, five minutes.
Hey.
Hi.
Hey, look,
I don't have a lot of time.
I just wanted to say I'm sorry.
The theory about you
and your dad,
I was wrong.
Look, it's Noah.
You have to get
the dance tonight canceled.
You can call in a bomb threat,
pull the fire alarm.
-Anything.
-I'm not gonna do that, Laurel.
Something changed this time,
Poppy.
You were dead, too.
You're in danger.
I love you, Lo.
I really hope you can
get better in there, okay?
I'll be waiting for you.
Poppy, I can't lose you.
You're not gonna.
But could you just for a moment
really consider...
Is it possible
these tragedies aren't real
and your mind made up
something you could control?
I love you, Lo.
I got to go.
Please check in
with reception...
Ow!
Pcoordinator, please report to...
Ms. McKinney?
Laurel.
What are you doing in New York?
I'm traveling on business.
It's really hard
to be away from Tyler,
but I'm racking up the miles,
you know?
Yeah.
Oh, you must be here
touring the colleges.
No, the... deadlines
have passed.
What do you mean?
Uh, you must be proud of Tyler
going to Yale.
Oh, no.
No, he is staying in town.
He's looking after the house
till I get back.
When do you get back?
It's really hard
being away from Tyler,
but I'm racking up the miles,
you know?
Tyler.
Mom!
Lights out, everybody!
Brookside Institute
was engulfed in flames
last night, killing several...
Code Red. Code Red.
A fire emergency
has been reported.
Please proceed
to the nearest exit.
...according to fire protocol.
Code Red. Code Red.
A fire emergency
has been reported.
Please proceed

...according to fire protocol.
Baby, love,
baby, it's a big, bad world
For a girl in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah
For a girl who falls in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah, ah, ah
Cha-cha, cha-cha
It's so hard to be strong
when you call my name
I know I should run
when you call my name.
An amazing job
to the musical stylings
of Poppy and the Popettes.
Yeah! Principal Yang,
you're a stud!
Thank you, Chuck.
Like a bolt
Of lightning...
Kiss the girl
who gives her lips
- Love her
- Okay.
-Let's go.
While you can
Be right back.
Oh, okay.
-Don't be long.
-Soon the tender years
Will pass
Then you'll understand...
Shut up, Noah.
Shh.
I'll come back for you later.
That nothing is forever
Mountains have to fall
Fuck.
Those eager lips
That want you now
May soon forget
So love her now
'Cause nothing is forever
Bah-bah-bah, bah-bah-bah,
bah-bah-bah, bah-bah-bah.
I'm not gonna cry
Not gonna cry,
not gonna cry no more
Cry no more
-Evan?
-Laurel?
No, I'm not gonna cry
Not gonna cry,
not gonna cry no more...
Poppy.
You're okay.
-Lo, how are you here?
-Where's Tyler?
Where's Tyler?
He left a couple minutes ago.
Okay. Okay, listen, you can't go
to the forest tonight, okay?
-Laurel, how did you get here?
-Promise me.
- How did you get here? -Promise.
- Laurel?
You shouldn't be here.
-Poppy.
-How'd you get out of Brookside?
No, I'm not gonna cry...
-Evan.
-Laurel?
-Evan.
-What are you doing here?
What are you doing here?
I told you not to come.
Where's, where's Bree and Chuck?
I don't know.
I haven't seen them.
Please. They're gone.
Laurel. Laurel, wait.
Cry no more...
Stop! Please don't follow me!
Stay here!
Cry no more
Cry no more.
Who knows how it happened?
It's not for me to say
Tragedy in town
Oh, my God.
The night she walked away
Not a star was shining
Rain was falling down...
Did you just bite me?
A little bit.
Oh, my God.
You won't read it
in the paper
And regrets will be few...
Then I'll be free from
Laurel?
This tragedy in town
Laurel!
Bree!
Chuck!
Okay, okay.
It's gonna be okay, Chuck.
Okay.
I have to put pressure on it.
Lift up your arm.
Look at me. Where's Bree?
I don't...
I'll be back. I'll be back.
Bree?
Bree, hey, stay with me.
I've got to stop the bleeding.
Um, hold on.
One, two.
Laurel!
Evan!
Laurel?
How do you tell
your heart...
Hello?
The whole day through
I know that I'll get over
The one who let me down...
Stop!
I know it's you, Tyler.
I saw your mom at Brookside.
I know that I'll get over
Tragedy in town...
Hey, Laurel.
Where's Noah?
How do you know about Noah?
I have a plan for him.
"Laurel was right.
"Noah went crazy.
"He killed them all
to avenge Leo.
He even wore his brother's mask
for the rampage."
It's a good story.
I'm not gonna let you.
You won't let me?
Laurel, you don't know
how to use that.
Run! Laurel, run!
Tyler!
Tyler, stop!
Please!
Why are you doing this?!
Tell me!
All you got to walk away fine!
You're gonna graduate,
go to college,
off to your lives!
But Leo, my mom, me?
None of us get to keep living
the lives we were meant to live.
What are you talking about?
You're going to Yale.
No, I'm not.
After my mom was injured,
she couldn't function.
We're losing the house.
I have to stay here, find some
shit job and pay for her care.
Don't you get that?
My life is over!
Okay, okay,
well, we can find you help.
Shut up!
Why did a waste of life like you
get to walk away fine?
Will you shut up, Tyler!
I am not fine!
You have no idea what it's like
being inside of my head.
We all walked away
from that accident broken,
yet every day, we wake up
and we choose to keep trying.
You are the waste of life,
not me!
Tyler!
Get away from her.
Stop it!
Stop it!
You shouldn't have
come here, Poppy.
Oh, baby.
Baby? Baby?
Poppy!
You really are crazy.
It's the end
Of the world
And I'm all alone
No more streets to
Turning of all I once knew
I can still find things
To laugh about today
But tomorrow makes me cry
And I still want a friend
Even though it's the end
Of the world
I still want a friend
Even though it's the end
Of the world.
We grow up slow, waiting
Wasting our days away
Time goes by faster
as we age...
Chuck. Chuck. Hey, guys.
Hey, whoa, whoa.
Chuck, Chuck, Chuck!
What, are you serious?
Nothing on earth
can keep my heart...
Oh, my gosh. Lolo, my love.
Hi. Hi.
Okay, I collected all remaining
photos of you-know-who--
-- and I got
lighter fluid,
sage and a dried lizard
for our cleansing ritual.
Okay, after class. Bye.
Love you.
Hi.
So...
You know, like, half the class
thinks you're a...
-you're a witch now, right?
-Mm.
Dude, do I need
to be scared or...?
Yeah, I mean, I'm actually
putting a very major spell
on you right now.
Oh, see,
I thought you already did.
I'm sorry...
I didn't believe you.
You don't have to keep saying
you're sorry.
No, I... I know.
I want to.
Something wrong?
No.
Absolutely nothing.
Baby, it's a big, bad world
For a girl in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah
For a girl who falls in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah-ah, ah
Cha-cha
You're in my blood
Hit me like a drug
I can't get enough
You shoot to score
I'm on the floor
You slay me, love
Now I'm hot like a fever
with tequila
And I'm ready to go
But I'm trying to resist
The deadliest of kisses
'cause I know
Baby, it's a big, bad world
For a girl in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah
For a girl who falls in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah-ah, ah
Cha-cha, cha-cha
It's so hard to be strong
when you call my name
Cha-cha
Cha-cha
I know I should run
when you call my name
Now I'm hot like a fever
with tequila
And I'm ready to go
Cha-cha
Baby, it's a big, bad world
For a girl in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah
For a girl who falls in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah-ah, ah
Cha-cha, cha-cha.
It's rumored by historians
that kissing began
millions of years ago
from mouth-to-mouth feeding
moms would do for their babies.
Yuck.
And the first recorded instance
of the romantic kiss
was 3,500 years ago
in what is now India.
Since then, kissing
has meant many things.
A New Year's kiss.
Kissing under mistletoe.
Sealed with a kiss.
You may now kiss the bride.
But kissing is also dangerous.
Mono is called
the kissing disease,
and kissing was a big no-no
during the black plague.
Kissing killed people.
But...
whatever the origin
of two people
smacking their lips together is,
it survived thousands of years
to torture girls like me.
We grew up
with true love's kiss.
The fairy tales,
those damned Disney movies
where true love's kiss
had the power to break curses.
Girls like me grow up
with these stories wondering,
"Could that ever happen for me?"
I know, it's not cool
to be a romantic anymore.
A romantic is naive,
willfully ignorant
of the darkness in this world.
But...
maybe, just maybe...
...it could happen for me.
Focus.
Operation First Kiss is a go.
Sorry, I'm here.
Hey, girls. Come on, let's go.
Doo-doo-doo-doo,
doo-doo-doo-doo...
It seems I'm one of
the only people left
at East Hart High who hasn't
had their first kiss.
My best friend Poppy had hers
last summer at soccer camp.
She scored the winning point
and then smacked one
on the goalie.
Chuck says his first kiss
was on a Zamboni
with a cheerleader.
But then he fell off
and broke his tooth on the ice.
For Tyler, it was while doing
physics homework
with a classmate.
But his mom walked in
and ruined the moment.
Bree's was on a dare
at a concert.
She ran onstage
and kissed the guitar player.
Evan's was on a volunteer trip
he went on
while on the front steps of a
house they both helped to build.
And Leo...
I actually don't know.
You're getting your first kiss
on Valentine's Day.
-Shh. Shut up.
-It's giving romance novel.
You're gonna jinx me.
It's like
you're inviting disaster.
You don't even know
if anything's gonna happen.
No, no, no, don't talk
like that. Come on.
-You got it. You got it.
-Oh.
Go, go, go, go, go. Go.
Abort mission. I'm gonna barf.
- Turn around.
- Everybody,
- pair up with a buddy.
- Hey, Laurel.
Want to buddy up?
- Yeah.
- Cooler seasons
are not known
for their blossoms,
but there are some rare species
that are the most beautiful
in the dark of winter.
Soak it all in, guys.
What's that for?
I don't know.
It's a walking stick.
Okay.
How do you get the bark
to look so real?
You're definitely
the most talented here.
Hey, Ms. Stark complimented
the details of your pine.
I think you're the talented one.
Yeah, right.
I'll be selling pet sketches,
and you'll have paintings
in the Guggenheim.
Well, then... here.
You can sell it
for millions one day.
Move forward!
Stay single file if you can,
and then take it all in.
If you guys are lucky and you
look over the side here...
Careful.
...you might see some salmon!
Smell that fresh air!
- Right there.
- You're not scared, are you?
Hey, Bree.
- Ooh.
- Oh, my God.
Look at that, guys.
Catch.
How lucky are we
to be out here right now?
Look there.
Hey, guys!
I need a pic!
This is stunning!
Squeeze together.
Oh, picture... picture time.
- Okay, okay, okay.
- Come on, get together!
I need to see everybody's faces!
Why does your mom have
to come with us
-to every school thing, huh?
-Shut up.
Every time.
Yeah, that's it!
Maybe, just maybe...
it could happen for me.
Uh, okay, let's do a silly one.
Hey, stop.
Stop it, stop it, stop it.
Stop. Stop, stop.
Chuck.
I got it.
Mom!
Mom.
Mom.
Mom.
Mom? Mom.
Stand up.
I can't do it. I can't.
It-it's okay, hon.
Just breathe.
Take deep breaths, honey.
You're okay.
Come on, come on, wake up.
Poppy.
Laurel, she's okay.
Just go check on Leo.
Hey.
Hey. Hey.
Hey.
Leo?
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Remember you are strong
and capable
and your anxieties
do not rule you.
You are safe.
You are capable.
With each breath, let the guilt
of past events melt away.
I'm seeing and feeling
that this window is secure.
I'm seeing and feeling
that this window is secure.
Ready?
You'll take it easy
your first day back, right?
Yes, ma'am.
Yeah, easy-peasy.
I know you don't want
to go back.
Just remember, the doctor said
it is very important
for you to get back
to your life.
Laurel. Laurel!
A mother
and her teenage daughter died
tragically in a house fire.
Hey.
Are you doing it again?
No. Doing what?
That railing is made
of balsa wood,
and that is so flammable,
and we really ought to have,
like, a fire escape ladder
underneath that window,
and you told me that you were
gonna change the bulb to LED.
Laurel.
You've got this.
I'm proud of you.
Hmm?
And-- I love you.
Huh?
Hey, Laurel.
You're back.
As a welcome gift, I have
an insane investment opportunity
for you.
My new crypto app uses
the miracle of blockchain to--
Wait, let me show--
Oh, I'm getting it.
Wait, Laurel. Hey, Laurel.
Come on.
Laurel. Welcome back.
Thanks, Principal Yang.
I hope your time away
was a healing one.
It's been a challenging year
for everyone
since losing Leo.
Hard as a principal, but also
a time of loss as a dad
seeing so much taken
from Poppy with her injury.
You know, since she lost soccer,
she's been really trying
to find herself.
Anyway, I-I know you two
had a falling out, but I--
I think I'm gonna be
late to class.
Okay.
Glad to have you back.
Thank you.
Chuck. Get off that trash can.
Laurel.
Attention, please.
East Hart High students,
love is in the air,
and it's finally time
for our Enchanted Garden
Valentine's Dance!
Your donations will go
towards throwing
the sickest dance
any school has ever had.
Invest in next-level decor,
a fire DJ,
and direct your eyes
at handsome Tyler
showing off our stunning venue,
the Conservatory!
Dress to impress
and bring your sweetheart.
It's time to kiss
under the stars.
Give them hell!
Give them hell!
Laurel?
Laurel.
Laurel, you're back.
Hey, Noah.
My brother would have been
so embarrassed by this.
Gold-plated. Not his style.
He never would've wanted to be
the center of attention
like this.
We have a school Bible club now.
-Oh.
-You should come.
Oh.
Thanks. I mean, I just don't
know if that's my thing.
You know, you don't have
to carry this pain alone.
My brother wouldn't have
wanted you to.
Noah, buddy.
Principal Yang was just
looking for you.
Something about double-booking
the rehearsal space.
-Hi.
-Hey.
Sorry. Thanks.
No, you're good. Good.
Noah's a good guy. He's...
just a little intense.
Yeah.
I'm glad to see
that you're back, though.
Yeah, well,
that makes one of us.
Do you want to go see, uh,
a game tomorrow?
With me and Bree?
Yeah, I just... I don't know
if I'm really, like,
a hockey kind of girl.
Oh, no, no, we don't... I mean,
we don't really go
for the hockey.
The cheer team, they-they have,
like, this new routine,
-so Bree and I are gonna
watch that and... -Oh.
She can drive us,
so we-we can pick you up,
if-if you want.
Big crowds, tall rafters,
loud noises.
It's just not really my thing.
Okay.
What if I, uh,
promise to bring earmuffs
and-and-and to keep you safe?
Hey.
How are you?
Three teenagers died today
when their Jeep rolled over
across four lanes of traffic
this afternoon
on the way to the mall.
Yeah, no, I, um...
I can't.
Are you okay?
I can't.
Um, this car is just...
-The...? Oh.
-The-the car, um...
-I can't.
-No, no, it's okay.
You sure?
I'm sorry. You can...
It's me.
You can go. Uh, enjoy the game.
I'm sorry. I-I just...
I-I can't do this.
Um...
Okay.
Hey.
Can I help?
I don't know. It...
It doesn't make sense.
For some reason,
my brain is just
obsessed with all danger now.
I, um...
as of, uh, what,
like a-a year ago,
I started really getting into
disaster videos.
Like shipwrecks and typhoons
and... bridge collapses.
-Shut up.
-What?
No, I'm not the only freak?
-No way.
-Yes.
Yes, I'm serious.
I'm over here thinking, like,
I'm opening up and...
No, uh...
-What's your favorite?
-My favorite? Uh...
-Mm-hmm.
-35W.
-That one hits close to home.
-Ooh, stop.
-I've watched that one
so many times. -Oh, really?
Yes, what...?
What is that? Why-why does
watching disaster videos
make me feel safer?
They're oddly comforting, right?
I... I'm broken. I don't know.
I...
My theory is that...
my brain is trying
to stop itself
from experiencing
more intense things.
You know, like, I-I...
I think it's so hard
to even think clearly
half of the time,
and so I know that I can't
control life, obviously,
but as long as I know that
I'm doing everything in my power
to stop more bad things
from happening.
Laurel...
I-I'm so sorry a-about Leo,
but that's not your fault.
Debatable.
But, um...
-Thank you.
-Yeah.
Thanks.
Uh...
It's, uh,
it's getting kind of late.
I should probably...
Yeah, I'm sorry.
No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for keeping you.
No, no, it's... it was great.
I'm...
-Uh...
-I, um...
I've been meaning to say this
for a... a long time.
Um...
I really like you.
I've... I just never had
the-the guts to say it before,
but it-it's important
to face our fears, right?
So I, um...
I-I did 'cause I said it.
But, no, it's, um...
it's late, so...
Not a star was shining
Rain was falling down
Then like a bolt
Of lightning
Tragedy in town
You won't read it
in the paper
And regrets will be few...
I...
Uh...
Laurel, what was that?
-Are you okay?
-I'm fine!
Hey. Hey, dude.
Laurel.
Um, I just want
to let you know that
you didn't miss anything
last night.
That game was so boring.
Then we went
to Tyler's afterwards,
and his mom is away, so,
you know, it was full chaos.
Hey, Bree.
Laurel.
Hey.
Hi.
Um...
-I'm sorry about last night.
-What?
I should've, like, asked...
asked for permission
before kissing you.
I-I know that's what
you're supposed to do,
but, like, sometimes
it can be a little bit,
you know, um... awkward.
Sorry, I'm... I'm sorry.
I-I'm the weirdo that, like,
screamed in your face
after you were,
you were really nice.
Yeah, yeah, no, the-the scream
was a little startling.
-A little hard on
my self-esteem, but... -Oh.
I'm...
I don't know how to explain it,
but I promise, I didn't...
I didn't scream because of you.
You sure?
So sure. Completely positive.
Okay.
I don't know, maybe I...
I'm not ready yet.
Just...
Can we take things kind of slow?
Yeah.
No, yeah, to-totally.
I-I mean, I... I won't be here
for a couple of weeks.
I leave tomorrow morning,
so, um...
May-Maybe we could, like, go
to the-the Valentine's Dance?
I-I don't know
if that's too fast.
If it is, it's fine.
Yeah. No, of course.
I-I mean, only if you
start wearing a helmet.
Nah.
They don't even,
they don't even fit on my head.
Okay, well, even if you
feel like you don't need it,
it makes people
who care about you feel better.
By "people," I mean me,
'cause I care about you.
Okay.
Tragedy in town.
Okay.
Bye.
It's not real.
Dude, dude, dude,
don't draw a dick.
-What?
-My mom's gonna see it.
-Okay, okay.
-Come on.
Oh, that's much better.
It's real.
So you're saying that
you kissed your boyfriend,
and then you saw him die?
He's not my boyfriend.
But, honey,
do you honestly think
that when you kiss someone
you can see the future?
I don't know.
You know what?
I believe you.
I believe you saw those things.
-That doesn't make them real.
-Mom.
Okay, what happened on the
bridge, it wasn't your fault.
There was nothing
you could have done.
Okay, well, now maybe there is.
Or maybe getting close
to someone again feels scary.
I mean, I guess.
Big emotional experiences.
It can cause distress.
-Delusions, even.
-God, Mom.
You're not...
you're not listening to me.
I am trying to make sense of it.
I don't want you
to have to go back to Brookside.
Why would you even say that?
You can't send me back.
I worked so hard to get out.
Six months was torture.
I know, but...
do you sincerely believe
that these visions are real?
No.
I'm not hungry, Mom.
Mom.
-I said I'm not hungry.
-Lo?
Poppy.
-Hey.
-Hey. What are you doing here?
Your mom let me in.
I saw what happened at school,
so I wanted
-to see if you're okay.
-Oh.
I mean, you could have
just, like, called
or texted about that.
Yeah, but you ignore my calls,
my texts,
DMs, Snaps, my carrier pigeons.
God, those are so expensive!
Sorry.
Oh. Oh.
CPR-certified,
emergency preparedness.
You know Krav Maga?
Sick.
You've been busy.
Yeah, I mean, so have you.
I've seen your posts.
You're, like, skydiving,
cliff jumping, and...
Yeah, lots of
falling activities.
Yeah, whee.
What else you been up to?
You were gone like all semester.
Oh, I don't know.
Just... that stuff and...
resting, I guess.
Yeah.
I wanted to talk
for a while now.
I wanted to apologize.
You did?
Yeah.
I was a pretty shitty friend
end of last year.
I went kind of wild
after the accident,
and you wanted to stay home
and feel safe.
And it felt limiting to me
when I wanted to
make danger my bitch,
but that was shitty.
And I shouldn't have
called you boring.
'Cause you're not boring.
And I really miss you.
I miss you so much.
And can we just
be besties again?
Yeah, I mean,
it's my fault, too.
I mean, I just... I don't know.
You were, like, flourishing,
and I was just shriveling,
-and I...
-No.
I didn't want
to hold you back anymore,
and so I just
started ignoring you.
I missed you so much, Popsicle.
Oh.
I missed you so much, Lolo.
I wish we could've been there
for each other.
But you know what?
We have time now.
-Tyler's my new boo.
-I saw.
I kissed all the frogs
at school----
but I found Prince Charming.
And we're going
to the dance together.
-Yay.
-Yay!
Aw, I missed your room.
Everything's so cute.
Oh, I like this mirror.
Cute.
-I like these...
-Oh, uh...
What? Oh, my God.
-Whoa, what is that?
-Nothing.
Wait, why do you have
a murder board in your canopy?
Oh, yeah,
it's getting really late, Poppy.
-You should leave.
-Do you have a murder canopy?
-What are you talking about? No.
-Mm, pretty sure you do.
You have Chuck and Evan's photos
-labeled "victims" in there.
-No.
What are you trying to do?
Are you gonna murder them?
What? No. I'm not...
God. You...
You wouldn't believe me
if I told you.
Go, try me.
Whenever...
I think that
whenever I kiss people...
- You're kissing people?
- Yes!
-Stop it. That's not the point.
-Yes, Lolo! Yes!
Whenever I do, I think I can
see how they're gonna die.
See you later, Sunflower.
-Poppy.
-What'd you see?
Well, you were elderly
and you died peacefully in bed.
God, that's so boring.
Was I at least rich?
Eh. I mean, I-I think you
looked kind of well-off.
Yeah. I knew I could do whatever
I want and it wouldn't kill me.
-Mm.
-Okay, what else? More details.
Uh, you had a grown daughter,
and your last words to her were,
"See you later, Sunflower."
Wait, those were my mom's
last words to me.
They were?
I never told anybody.
That's crazy.
Do you believe me?
I don't know.
I mean, I guess it makes sense,
'cause trauma can trigger
people's third eye,
sixth sense, ESP.
And I'm pretty spiritual,
and I believe in the multiverse
and other realms,
so why not this?
As long as it's not
harming anyone,
I got to advocate for
all levels of human perception.
Yeah.
Yeah, okay, I like that.
Yeah. Hail my all-seeing queen!
Cool.
I-I mean...
The thing is...
Huh?
Evan kissed me...
Evan kissed you?
Come on, that's so cute.
-I'm living!
-Shut up.
-He liked you for so long.
-What?
Who was gonna tell me?
That's not the point.
Whenever he did,
I had a vision of him
getting stabbed to death.
Murder.
By whom?
I don't know, that's that thing.
And-and Chuck was there, too,
and he was dead,
and there was, like,
a pile of bodies.
It was like a massacre.
It is kind of dark, Lo.
I know. Hence the murder canopy.
Oh.
Okay.
Okay, no, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I like it.
Let's, uh, let's do it.
Let's figure it out.
-Really?
-Come on, come on.
-Mm-hmm.
-I mean, I feel like
I'd almost feel a little better
if you were kind of skeptical.
-Ah, come on, girl.
-Oh.
Who would want to kill Evan?
Or Chuck, even?
He's annoying
but not, like, murder annoying.
Oh, oh, there was, uh,
this weird song
playing in the forest. Listen.
Who knows how it happened?
-Ooh, old-timey. Creepy.
-It's not for me to say...
But it's giving off a vibe,
though, I'm not gonna lie.
I don't know, there's still
so much information I need.
Like-like clues on the killer,
where this forest is.
It's obvi what you
got to do next.
-It is?
-Yeah.
You got to...
-...kiss Chuck.
-Kiss Chuck?
-Yes.
-No.
Yes, exactly. Why not?
'Cause if you see how he dies,
you might get clues
on who the killer is.
How? Chuck would never kiss me.
What? Regressive much?
So you kiss him.
It's perfect.
Tyler's having another hang
at his place this weekend
'cause his mom's in New York
for work.
No, you-you don't get it.
My social anxiety is at, like,
an all-time high right now.
And I'm not his ice bunny type.
I'm, I'm more like a house rat.
- No.
- No, in a good way.
I'm very comfortable with it.
I-I'm, like, in the walls with
a blanket and a cup of tea.
Okay, okay, that's cute.
I like it, but that's why...
What?
No, not a...
-makeover.
-Makeover!
Isn't doing a makeover
to get a guy's attention
kind of antiquated?
It is indeed
a feminism faux pas,
but lives are at stake.
And it's not like
you're changing forever.
It's drag, baby.
And it's just for one kiss.
You got to approach
a guy like Chuck
like you would a squirrel.
Carefully,
as not to scare him off
'cause they can get really
distracted easy and run away.
And you got to let him think
that he's smarter than you.
The guy who thought
the Slow Food movement
meant eating dumb chickens?
Oh, come on, pretend.
It's an acting challenge.
Okay. Dah-dah!
Whoa.
You are good at this.
Yeah.
Yes! Let's go.
The clock goes on and on
But I think the timing's off
for once
Whoo!
It's something that makes...
Okay, we're talking cute,
we're talking floofy.
In the 1900s, what'd they say?
Ditzy? Ditzy.
Okay, go, go.
Chuck.
Whoa.
Laurel, what are you wearing?
This? I don't know.
Do you like it?
I mean, I guess.
Weird seeing a mole person
like you dress hot, though.
Confusing.
You're so funny.
I'm confused, too.
-Yeah?
-Um, you're so smart.
Could you help me with, like,
my calc homework sometime?
I'm-I'm in algebra one, my dude.
You're a senior.
- Yeah.
- Hey, Two Buck.
Go long. Go long. Hey.
Oh!
What the hell, Chuck?
-You okay?
-Yeah, is there a bathroom?
-Yeah, upstairs. Want help?
-No.
Oh, my... Laurel.
Oh. Sorry.
Come on.
- I will.
- Sorry.
Ah, who's that?
It's okay. It's just Laurel.
Hi, Mrs. McKinney.
Oh, hi, hon. What you all doing?
Sorry, I didn't mean
to interrupt.
It's just me here, so I...
What?
She knows I have people over.
It's fine.
Oh.
Yeah, just make sure
you clean up
before I get back from New York.
I will.
- Okay. Bye-bye.
- Love you.
I'm so sorry.
I... Chuck spilled all over me,
so I was looking
for the bathroom.
Just don't call the cops, okay?
Ha ha, very funny.
I'm not gonna call the cops
on you.
Uh, your mom even seems very
surprisingly chill with this.
I mean, she's not mad at all
that you're having
a house party?
My... my mom would kill me.
No, no, not at all.
After what happened, you know,
to Leo,
we promised each other
no more regrets.
And then you climbed
Mount Everest together?
Not yet.
No, she took a promotion
she'd been passing up
because she was afraid
it was too much travel.
And, you know, I kicked things
into high gear.
I studied harder,
I got into Yale.
I finally told Poppy
that I liked her.
Geez, yeah,
your, uh, post-trauma journey
is a lot more inspiring
than mine.
It's never too late to take
charge and change the future.
Do you have a Sharpie
I can borrow?
All my, all my,
all my sanity
She want talk, she want play,
she want half of me
Pockets empty, sleepy dreaming
'bout a rack of Gs
Nigga, pass the weed,
I could smoke like half a tree
Running faster than...
Hey. Oh, you look different.
Hi. I'll be back.
Hey, Chuck.
Can I, like, sign your cast?
Uh, okay.
On your head,
red dead like a pack of meat
Um...
is it true that you're, like,
the best varsity goalie
in all the Midwest?
Hell yeah.
Nothing gets past
Two Buck Chuck.
That's, like, so hot.
Did you know that, uh,
athletic prowess is, like,
number one on my list
of attractive traits?
Do you want to, like,
show me your skills?
Hell yeah!
Come on.
Do your worst, peasants.
Whoo!
Show me what you got!
-What are you doing?
-Um...
I thought you liked Evan.
No, I-I do. I was...
It was nothing.
I was signing his cast.
Laurel, come on,
you're not watching.
Laurel.
-Laurel.
-Yeah.
Looks like nothing.
Bree...
Hey.
How's it going?
- I need help.
- Whoo!
Oh, my God.
Oh.
Let's go!
Hey, Chuck.
Whoo!
Oh. Oh, no.
Ow.
Ow.
Oh, my God, Chuck.
I'm so sorry.
Laurel, don't you have
a first aid kit?
Yes. Yes, I do.
I know, Chuck. Come on.
- Don't move.
- Okay.
-Two more.
-Okay.
You're gonna be all right,
buddy.
Okay. Ready?
-Ow.
-Okay, okay.
How many left, two?
- One.
- One?
-Do you want me to count?
-Yeah, yeah.
-Okay, I'm gonna count.
-Okay.
-Three, two, one.
-Okay.
Ready?
Three...
Oh.
My mom's gonna kill me.
Is this gonna scar?
She's always telling me
how being an idiot
is going to ruin
my handsome face.
Yeah, no, it's not gonna scar.
Just keep putting Neosporin
on it, and you'll be fine.
Here.
I can have it?
Yeah.
I have buckets of this stuff.
Damn, you're like a...
like a safety smarty-pants, huh?
-Uh...
-That's-that's pretty cool.
I guess if obsessively needing
to be in control of everything
that could go wrong is cool,
then yeah, so cool.
Yeah.
I'm sorry, dude.
Like, what happened on the
bridge, it-it was messed up.
And, um, I feel bad about being
a dickhead before we fell.
You know, sometimes,
you know, I-I st...
I have nightmares
about falling and stuff, so...
I'm sorry, Chuck.
Oh!
Oh, excuse me.
Ow.
Who knows how it happened?
It's not
For me to say
To say...
Tragedy in town.
I'm down to swap spit,
but, like,
I don't see you like that,
Laurel.
Uh, I'm sorry.
What's that?
It's an airsoft mask.
Okay.
That's, uh,
that-that's Zolly, Bree and...
Oh, Leo.
They all have the same mask.
I didn't know he played.
Zolly Peppercorn
and Bree Williams.
One of them has got
to be the killer.
I mean, Bree is, like,
Evan's best friend,
so I doubt it,
and then Zolly is, like...
I mean, he's Zolly.
Do we really think
he's capable of murder?
Eh, people have
secret grudges, vendettas.
Okay, let's say one of them
is the killer.
I mean, how-how would knowing
how they die even help us?
If-if they never get caught,
then they could die
in any number of ways,
and then we get nowhere.
Or one of them dies
of a lethal injection
and Evan and Chuck's parents
are in the execution room.
Uh! Case closed!
You're not gonna
find out unless you kiss 'em.
Why couldn't you have gotten
these powers?
Mm.
'Cause I'd be too powerful,
endangering the entire
human race.
I mean, how am I even supposed
to kiss the both of them?
I mean, Bree is so pissed
at me right now,
I can barely even, like,
approach her,
let alone kiss her.
I have an idea.
You can kiss two birds
with one stone,
but you're not gonna like it.
What?
Laurel party, Laurel party.
No. No.
I don't throw parties.
I-I-I awkwardly attend them
at best.
Oh.
Uh, why-why can't Tyler
just throw another one?
No, you have to host it
so you can control the scene.
Okay? Like who attends
and what the activities are.
And I can't host it
'cause, uh, hosting a party
at the principal's place
doesn't really work.
Uh-uh, no, I...
That's worse than having
to kiss people. I...
-What?
-I don't want to be responsible
for underage drinking.
And my house is so small,
it's gonna be, like,
a safety hazard.
And my mom would never let me.
She doesn't have to know.
She's going on a date
this Friday.
Diane and I talk.
Okay, fine.
We'll let our friends
get slaughtered in the woods.
Enjoy your night out.
You look so hot. Go get some.
Mm, well, don't wait up for me.
Ew, gross.
Have a fun movie night.
Thank you.
No, I'm gonna be sick.
I don't lie to my mom.
No, who's gonna...?
Nobody's gonna know.
-No, she's gonna know.
-No, how would they know?
Party time!
Laurel party's looking good.
Do you think we're ready?
Uh, Bree, check.
Of course I can give you
a belly button piercing.
Zolly, check.
And, my friend, your investment
will quadruple.
Okay.
Chug, chug, chug.
Okay, let's do this.
Uh, guys!
Uh...
Guys, I have an idea!
Let's play spin the bottle!
No, boo. Boring.
We're not doing that.
-No, way.
-I'm down.
Yeah, come on, let's just do it.
Whoo! It's giving
middle school nostalgia.
Let's go. It's smoochy time.
Don't pretend like you don't
want to. Let's go.
- Look, I'll start.
- All righty.
Oh, yeah,
that's, like, off-limits.
-Boo. No, no, this was
your idea. -No, come on.
You got to do it.
- Don't be a frickin' chicken,
Laurel. - Do it.
- Boo.
- It's okay. It's okay.
It's okay. I'm a sharer.
I'm a sharer.
-Go for it. Go for it.
-She's a sharer.
Whoa.
Okay, this just got interesting.
Okay, anyway, who's next?
Hey, I'll go.
- On me. It's on me.
- All right, let's go.
- Oh.
- Ooh.
- Really?
- Bree.
Boo.
What was that?
Like you mean it, bitch.
Better kiss.
Better kiss. Better kiss.
Better kiss.
Wow.
Ow!
Whoa, settle down, you guys.
I'm next. I'm next.
I'm-a deep sea dive...
Well, Laurel.
Take an East Side drive...
This is your lucky day.
I guess so.
Mm.
Mm.
Blockchain...
Guys, he's choking.
Call 911.
Oh, no way.
What?
Um...
No, it's just...
Uh, no, sorry,
just your breath is deadly.
That's...
I would stay very far away
from those
if you want anybody
to talk to you at college.
Uh...
Uh, well, I didn't mean it
like that.
-It's...
-No.
Hey, you know, I really
don't need your pity, okay?
Okay, I'm out of here!
-Zolly. -There's mouthwash
in the bathroom.
It's gonna be okay, Zolly.
Zolly.
It's okay.
What the heck was that?
Shut up.
Okay, who's up?
Someone spin.
Okay, are we gonna
continue this game or what?
Guys, wait, I'm going?
Chuck. Okay, Chuck, spin.
You want me to go?
Whoa.
Is that allowed?
You scared?
Do it.
Do it. Do it.
-Come on.
-Do it.
Do it. Do it.
Shut up.
I know that I'll get over
The one who let me down
Then I'll be free from
This tragedy in town.
If it's not you, then who is it?
- What?
- What?
What?
Uh, Evan.
-What?
-Wh...?
Evan. Hey, I-I...
What are you doing back
so early?
I-I didn't...
You were the one who told me
that y-you wanted
to take things slow,
and-and I respected that.
I didn't think you were gonna
go behind my back
and kiss my best friend.
-I'm sorry. -Yeah,
did you really kiss Chuck, too?
Because Bree is telling me
all this stuff
about how you have been
acting weird
after Poppy and you
become friends again, and...
I wish that I could explain.
I-I... I have a good reason.
I-I swear.
Then say it.
Can we just...
...take a pause
with things between us?
Evan.
Think of a place I would go
I'm daydreamin'...
I can't say I'm trying
to save your life
because I'm having visions.
Just, I sound crazy.
-Oh.
-And... we did all of this,
and we're no closer
to finding the killer.
Everybody who was a suspect
is a victim.
And then, I mean, Tyler?
I'm so sorry.
No, it's okay.
It's okay, 'cause you know what?
No one's gonna die.
We're gonna find out the uggo
who's doing this,
and we're gonna just
gather more clues.
Kiss more people. It'll be fun.
I am so messed up from Leo
that now whenever I kiss someone
I see the most horrific moment
of their life.
I mean, what, what if even if
we stop these murders,
what if the visions don't stop?
And then I'm just broken
like this forever and I'm alone?
Hey, you're not broken.
-Well, you don't know that.
-I do.
Okay, I do.
And you're never gonna be alone
'cause my ass is glued to you.
And when we stop this
from happening,
you're gonna find out
that kissing can save lives.
It'll be cool.
What the...? Laurel!
Mom? Um, you're back?
Yeah, it was a shit date.
Everyone, get out of my house.
Party's over.
Go. Get out.
Laurel, you lied to me?
I'm sorry.
What happened?
-Did something happen?
-No.
-It's okay. I...
-You know, it's not okay.
This is so unlike you.
It's not her fault. I promise,
I promise, it was my idea.
- Your idea?
- Yeah.
Poppy, Laurel just got out of
an institution...
Mom, don't!
...and her mental health
is very fragile.
This is not the kind of
influence she needs right now.
I didn't know that.
You need to go home.
I'm calling your dad.
And you two, you're gonna
take a break from each other.
No, no, it was my idea...
I don't care.
I don't care, Poppy.
Go home.
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
And, Laurel, you are grounded.
Since I first met you
Thought I could forget you
-And then
-Hello?
We kissed good night
I knew you were dynamite
Aha
I knew you were dynamite
Hello?
Baby, I love you
Honey, I need you
And, darling, I want you so
I'll never let you go
Ah, ah, ah
When I'm in your a-a-arms
Man, you've got
The cha-a-arm
Then you kiss my li-i-ips
My heart does a doggone flip
Baby, I love you
Honey, I need you
And, darling,
I want you so...
Hello?
Uh, Ranger Pauline?
I need help identifying a plant.
Is anyone there?
Hello?
Pauline?
Hello?
Uh, Ranger Pauline?
Come on.
No, no, no, please.
Come on, Ranger Pauline.
Hey!
Shit.
There was someone else
inside the greenhouse.
I swear.
Pauline did not
do this to herself.
They drugged her.
And the killer took my backpack
and my things and my sketchbook.
Honey.
The officers said Pauline
hadn't been well.
And that she was in and out
of recovery since the accident
and she was really struggling.
Our stunning venue,
the Conservatory!
It happens at the dance.
Hi.
I-I need to talk
to the sergeant.
No, I-I don't want to leave
another message.
Something awful
is going to happen
at the East Hart
Valentine's Dance.
It-it's at the Conservatory.
You have to get it shut down.
Hello?
They were all on the bridge.
Poppy?
Hey, I got your messages.
Everyone getting killed
was on the bridge.
There's only one person
with a motive to kill everybody
-that survived that fall.
-Who?
It's Noah.
What?
Noah?
- Shh. I have to go.
- What?
I'm seeing and feeling
that this window is secure.
Hey!
What song is that?
It's for my church band.
You're really good.
Have you always been religious?
Our parents took us to church
when we were younger,
but it wasn't for me
until last year.
That must've been hard on you.
God gives us what we can handle.
Yeah, but...
some have to handle
so much more than others.
Everyone has their struggles.
But not like you.
I mean, everyone else
on the bridge survived.
It-it doesn't make you angry?
After my brother passed,
I was angry.
At Ranger Pauline.
At... you.
Now I trust that God has a plan,
and it's not for me to question.
I just need to play my part.
Stop. I'm not interested.
I'm sorry.
Hey, just go.
Sorry.
Laurel Hansen.
I need to see you, Laurel.
-Now.
-Principal Yang.
I'm so glad you found me.
I have to talk to you.
I know that it's not
gonna be popular,
but you have to cancel
the dance.
Please, it's for the safety
of your students.
What are you doing?
Following up on a tip
the office received.
What kind of tip?
Laurel.
We have a zero-tolerance policy
when it comes to weapons.
That isn't mine.
It sure isn't.
It's the Ranger's.
Did you take this?
You were there
-when she was found.
-No, I-I... Why would I...
Who else has one of those keys?
No one.
Which is why you are expelled,
effective immediately.
Principal Yang, I...
...a time of loss as a dad,
seeing so much taken
from Poppy with her injury.
Mom, you can't send me back.
Brookside is not a punishment.
Well, it feels like one.
Laurel, you're regressing,
and I need you to be better.
-Truly better.
-I am better!
Look, I know that
I have been intense,
but this is not like last time.
I did not bring that knife
to school.
Somebody is framing me.
We're going to Brookside now.
End of discussion.
Mom, terrible things
are going to happen.
-I have to stop them.
-Okay, honey,
you are... you are
breaking my heart.
Mom, please.
I don't know how
to keep you safe.
Okay?
I wish I did, but...
but I need help.
We're going tonight.
Mom, no.
What on earth?
What the hell?
-Uh...
-Laurel?
- Uh, I can explain.
- What?
Dad, she tried to kiss you.
-I-I-I... No, I didn't.
-What?
-I'm calling your mother.
-No, please.
You two girls stay right here.
I...
Laurel, what the hell?
Please, I can explain.
Noah is the perfect suspect
except for one thing.
I don't know how he would've
gotten your dad's keys
and put the knife in my locker.
And-and today I noticed
that your dad wears
the same sneakers
as all the students.
What are you saying?
His daughter, with her whole
future ahead of her,
gets this life-altering injury
and-and the future
that he has for her shattered.
Maybe he's angry at everyone
who got to walk away
from the accident
like it didn't happen.
Okay, well, there's...
there's another person
who was on the bridge
who isn't a victim.
Me?
-Yeah.
-Well...
Okay, that's fair.
No, no, why would I go
on a kissing spree
of all of my victims to pretend
to see how they're gonna die?
I don't know.
It makes as much sense
as my dad, the principal,
killing his students because
his daughter broke her leg.
Then why is everybody
who was on the bridge
a victim except for us?
What are you saying,
that I'm the murderer?
I don't know.
I don't...
No, I don't know.
Stop. Okay, stop.
It's scaring me.
What if, what if
none of this is real?
-No.
-What if your mom's right?
Your mental health is fragile.
What if?
This... Poppy.
Please, please.
What... what about what I saw
you say on your deathbed?
"See you later, Sunflower"?
You told me that you'd never
told anybody that before.
Maybe I told you and I forgot,
okay? It can be explained.
Poppy, please.
What if all of this is real?
Please, I'm scared.
I can't do this anymore.
I'm sorry.
Hey.
I'm an asshole.
What?
Everything with Leo,
it really messed me up,
and-and everybody knows that.
I don't know, somehow...
you saw more in me
than just a messed-up girl.
All the stories
and princess movies,
they all end with a kiss.
But whenever you kissed me,
that's when it started.
When what started?
This overwhelming feeling
that I would lose you.
And I guess it just triggered
all these things in my head,
and I'm...
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
You said this first,
and I think you were right--
we should maybe
take things slow.
And I think that's probably
what's best.
Um, like, we can start off
with little things.
We can walk to school together.
I can't go to school.
What? Why?
Look...
I'm sorry.
Like a bolt of lightning...
And regrets will be few...
-What are you doing?
-It's Noah.
Oh, it's Noah.
Poppy. Oh, it changed.
What are you talking about?
I'm trying to save your life.
Laurel.
I have been looking everywhere
for you.
-No.
-Evan.
Look, look, look, look.
Look, if you go to the dance,
you're gonna die.
-No, no. What?
-Look at me. Look...
-What's going on?
-Don't go to the dance.
Don't go to the dance,
or you're gonna die!
Noah's gonna kill you.
He's gonna kill Chuck
and Bree and Poppy.
He killed Ranger Pauline.
Mom, he's gonna kill
all of my friends.
Please listen to me.
I'm not crazy!
Evan, don't go to the dance!
Please!
10:00 a.m. group therapy session
will begin shortly in Room B.
Get out of my room.
Stay away!
This is different
from last time.
You're 18.
This is the adult ward.
One call, five minutes.
Hey.
Hi.
Hey, look,
I don't have a lot of time.
I just wanted to say I'm sorry.
The theory about you
and your dad,
I was wrong.
Look, it's Noah.
You have to get
the dance tonight canceled.
You can call in a bomb threat,
pull the fire alarm.
-Anything.
-I'm not gonna do that, Laurel.
Something changed this time,
Poppy.
You were dead, too.
You're in danger.
I love you, Lo.
I really hope you can
get better in there, okay?
I'll be waiting for you.
Poppy, I can't lose you.
You're not gonna.
But could you just for a moment
really consider...
Is it possible
these tragedies aren't real
and your mind made up
something you could control?
I love you, Lo.
I got to go.
Please check in
with reception...
Ow!
Pcoordinator, please report to...
Ms. McKinney?
Laurel.
What are you doing in New York?
I'm traveling on business.
It's really hard
to be away from Tyler,
but I'm racking up the miles,
you know?
Yeah.
Oh, you must be here
touring the colleges.
No, the... deadlines
have passed.
What do you mean?
Uh, you must be proud of Tyler
going to Yale.
Oh, no.
No, he is staying in town.
He's looking after the house
till I get back.
When do you get back?
It's really hard
being away from Tyler,
but I'm racking up the miles,
you know?
Tyler.
Mom!
Lights out, everybody!
Brookside Institute
was engulfed in flames
last night, killing several...
Code Red. Code Red.
A fire emergency
has been reported.
Please proceed
to the nearest exit.
...according to fire protocol.
Code Red. Code Red.

Baby, love,
baby, it's a big, bad world
For a girl in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah
For a girl who falls in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah, ah, ah
Cha-cha, cha-cha
It's so hard to be strong
when you call my name
I know I should run
when you call my name.
An amazing job
to the musical stylings
of Poppy and the Popettes.
Yeah! Principal Yang,
you're a stud!
Thank you, Chuck.
Like a bolt
Of lightning...
Kiss the girl
who gives her lips
- Love her
- Okay.
-Let's go.
While you can
Be right back.
Oh, okay.
-Don't be long.
-Soon the tender years
Will pass
Then you'll understand...
Shut up, Noah.
Shh.
I'll come back for you later.
That nothing is forever
Mountains have to fall
Fuck.
Those eager lips
That want you now
May soon forget
So love her now
'Cause nothing is forever
Bah-bah-bah, bah-bah-bah,
bah-bah-bah, bah-bah-bah.
I'm not gonna cry
Not gonna cry,
not gonna cry no more
Cry no more
-Evan?
-Laurel?
No, I'm not gonna cry
Not gonna cry,
not gonna cry no more...
Poppy.
You're okay.
-Lo, how are you here?
-Where's Tyler?
Where's Tyler?
He left a couple minutes ago.
Okay. Okay, listen, you can't go
to the forest tonight, okay?
-Laurel, how did you get here?
-Promise me.
- How did you get here? -Promise.
- Laurel?
You shouldn't be here.
-Poppy.
-How'd you get out of Brookside?
No, I'm not gonna cry...
-Evan.
-Laurel?
-Evan.
-What are you doing here?
What are you doing here?
I told you not to come.
Where's, where's Bree and Chuck?
I don't know.
I haven't seen them.
Please. They're gone.
Laurel. Laurel, wait.
Cry no more...
Stop! Please don't follow me!
Stay here!
Cry no more
Cry no more.
Who knows how it happened?
It's not for me to say
Tragedy in town
Oh, my God.
The night she walked away
Not a star was shining
Rain was falling down...
Did you just bite me?
A little bit.
Oh, my God.
You won't read it
in the paper
And regrets will be few...
Then I'll be free from
Laurel?
This tragedy in town
Laurel!
Bree!
Chuck!
Okay, okay.
It's gonna be okay, Chuck.
Okay.
I have to put pressure on it.
Lift up your arm.
Look at me. Where's Bree?
I don't...
I'll be back. I'll be back.
Bree?
Bree, hey, stay with me.
I've got to stop the bleeding.
Um, hold on.
One, two.
Laurel!
Evan!
Laurel?
How do you tell
your heart...
Hello?
The whole day through
I know that I'll get over
The one who let me down...
Stop!
I know it's you, Tyler.
I saw your mom at Brookside.
I know that I'll get over
Tragedy in town...
Hey, Laurel.
Where's Noah?
How do you know about Noah?
I have a plan for him.
"Laurel was right.
"Noah went crazy.
"He killed them all
to avenge Leo.
He even wore his brother's mask
for the rampage."
It's a good story.
I'm not gonna let you.
You won't let me?
Laurel, you don't know
how to use that.
Run! Laurel, run!
Tyler!
Tyler, stop!
Please!
Why are you doing this?!
Tell me!
All you got to walk away fine!
You're gonna graduate,
go to college,
off to your lives!
But Leo, my mom, me?
None of us get to keep living
the lives we were meant to live.
What are you talking about?
You're going to Yale.
No, I'm not.
After my mom was injured,
she couldn't function.
We're losing the house.
I have to stay here, find some
shit job and pay for her care.
Don't you get that?
My life is over!
Okay, okay,
well, we can find you help.
Shut up!
Why did a waste of life like you
get to walk away fine?
Will you shut up, Tyler!
I am not fine!
You have no idea what it's like
being inside of my head.
We all walked away
from that accident broken,
yet every day, we wake up
and we choose to keep trying.
You are the waste of life,
not me!
Tyler!
Get away from her.
Stop it!
Stop it!
You shouldn't have
come here, Poppy.
Oh, baby.
Baby? Baby?
Poppy!
You really are crazy.
It's the end
Of the world
And I'm all alone
No more streets to
Turning of all I once knew
I can still find things
To laugh about today
But tomorrow makes me cry
And I still want a friend
Even though it's the end
Of the world
I still want a friend
Even though it's the end
Of the world.
We grow up slow, waiting
Wasting our days away
Time goes by faster
as we age...
Chuck. Chuck. Hey, guys.
Hey, whoa, whoa.
Chuck, Chuck, Chuck!
What, are you serious?
Nothing on earth
can keep my heart...
Oh, my gosh. Lolo, my love.
Hi. Hi.
Okay, I collected all remaining
photos of you-know-who--
-- and I got
lighter fluid,
sage and a dried lizard
for our cleansing ritual.
Okay, after class. Bye.
Love you.
Hi.
So...
You know, like, half the class
thinks you're a...
-you're a witch now, right?
-Mm.
Dude, do I need
to be scared or...?
Yeah, I mean, I'm actually
putting a very major spell
on you right now.
Oh, see,
I thought you already did.
I'm sorry...
I didn't believe you.
You don't have to keep saying
you're sorry.
No, I... I know.
I want to.
Something wrong?
No.
Absolutely nothing.
Baby, it's a big, bad world
For a girl in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah
For a girl who falls in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah-ah, ah
Cha-cha
You're in my blood
Hit me like a drug
I can't get enough
You shoot to score
I'm on the floor
You slay me, love
Now I'm hot like a fever
with tequila
And I'm ready to go
But I'm trying to resist
The deadliest of kisses
'cause I know
Baby, it's a big, bad world
For a girl in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah
For a girl who falls in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah-ah, ah
Cha-cha, cha-cha
It's so hard to be strong
when you call my name
Cha-cha
Cha-cha
I know I should run
when you call my name
Now I'm hot like a fever
with tequila
And I'm ready to go
Cha-cha
Baby, it's a big, bad world
For a girl in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah
For a girl who falls in love
With a killer Casanova
Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah-ah, ah
Cha-cha, cha-cha.
