Trust (2025) Movie Script
1
Emily Barnes.
Barnley.
Good morning from sunny california.
thousend faces are waking up to their
first nightmare.
Another celebrity hacking scandal.
I'm Jessica Collins,
coming to you live from
Los Angeles with
breaking news on this story.
A shocking security breach overnight.
Plotting the Internet with explicit images
of private information, even passwords
belonging to some of Hollywood's biggest
names.
And at the center of the media storm,
America's sweetheart Lauren Lane.
Just hours ago, the intimate personal
images belonging to the Emmy award-winning
actress leaked online, igniting a
firestorm of views with Lane's name
currently topping the list of
post-searched terms on the Internet.
But perhaps most shocking to many is this
photo of a positive pregnancy test,
which has already spurred down rumors and
speculation about who the father may be.
Lane has yet to make a public statement
that fans and fellow celebs are rallying
behind the star, who's best known as the
world's most pathetic women in terms of
the entire population of some of the
so-called male.
And when private change, sex trafficking,
love and poverty were raised, please,
no existential doubt.
And today, my clumsiness was just kicked
in.
Here,
please, it's weird.
I'm pretty like you.
I'm interested in sending something over.
Feels cozy, remote, no service for miles.
Please don't connect to the Wi-Fi.
Lauren, give yourself a break.
You sure you don't want me to go with you?
I'm gonna be alone.
Okay.
With production proceeds of 11,
help us wonder if Shuffle
finds its way into the
storyline of famously
successful Sally Johnson.
Give it about 10 minutes.
I sent you the keypad code.
You're an angel.
I love you.
Thank you.
You got this.
Take a break to relax.
This is so fucking different.
I'm just gonna find out.
No, no one's gonna find out anything.
Hey, hey.
Look at me.
What the doctor Kershaw was saying.
There you are.
I'll go.
So, what are you saying?
Lauren, listen.
I've been your agent for how long now.
No one is more upset about this than me.
I feel like literally so violated right
now.
Excuse me?
You're America's daughter.
You're Sally Johnson from the Johnsons for
God's sake.
And whatever little dipshit hacker did
this just became a sum-up in fucking mud.
And we are gonna find him, kill him,
and bury his ass in the ocean.
And everyone has your back on this.
Okay?
But there are questions.
Questions?
Um, yeah.
The network is curious about that picture
of the positive pregnancy test.
What about it?
It obviously would affect production.
Um, it's cold.
I-I know.
Obviously, everyone here, especially the
network, is teamier.
We just need to know what that means.
Maybe it isn't even yours.
Grace could fake a pregnancy for you on
this one.
I am not asking my assistant to fake a
pregnancy to-Are you serious, Andra?
Lauren, I just need to know what to tell
the American people right now.
Tell the American people that they can
fuck off.
Lauren?
Yep.
Good stuff, Georgie.
Good stuff it is.
Mom, you gotta stop calling.
You need something called, Grace.
Please.
I don't know.
It's a quiet little place or something.
Just gotta clear my head.
Wow, really.
You're embarrassed.
Yeah.
Well, if your friends are so judgmental
and stop taking them on weekend trips and
buying them fancy
dinners with my money that
I've been making use
since I was eight years old.
Do you?
Did you really just ask me that?
Do I know who the father is?
You were there!
Come on, Georgie.
Go.
This is nice, Georgie.
Georgie!
Georgie!
Wow.
Come on, Georgie.
I can't.
I have to babysit Billy tonight.
Yeah, he totally peed off Dad.
He stole his bike and crashed it in his
sunflowers.
I know.
Do you need help with the math homework?
Yeah, Mr. Mathers.
He's totally kicking my butt with his
equations right now.
Hey, Jaydee.
You're going in the movies?
Don't worry, Georgie.
It's just a fantasy.
Followed up by the trees alone.
Stab at some poetry, Georgie.
How crap.
Thank you.
Welcome to the very sound stage.
Lauren Lane is America's sweetheart,
Sally Johnson.
Our new guest star and possible boyfriend,
Dylan Price, is the handsome heartbreaker,
Skyler.
America's favorite dad, Peter Johnson,
as Peter Johnson.
He's helping Billy get his first.
He says, I could totally go over to the
prom and do a kickflip into his butt.
It's sweet, but that won't be necessary,
Billy.
Whatever.
Let's go, Conner.
You kids, no skateboarding in the house.
Your brothers really love you.
You know that?
I know.
You know who else loves you?
This guy right here.
I've loved you since the first day I held
you in my arms.
And I will until the day I die,
because family is forever.
And boyfriends, well, they come and they
go.
And sometimes they really stink.
Dad, that's so dumb.
Thank you.
There, there, there.
What?
Hi, Peter.
Hair and makeup continue now.
I'll be there when I'm good and ready.
I love you.
You really fucked it up, huh?
You think I'm gonna sit around and wait to
see what Michael do this time?
We need cash.
We need cash fast.
What if we do a startup?
I always wanted to do a startup.
How about you start up
another one of these so I
don't feel a thing when I
get my brains blown out?
Say that?
You guys don't listen.
A startup could take years to mature to
any real profit.
What do you know about a Marcus?
I watch your YouTube dipshit.
That's right, he does.
You heard him.
He takes years.
He's got an entrepreneurial mind.
He's watching his videos.
What about that fancy little cabin gig you
got?
They got somebody know in there?
No.
Not really.
It's off limits, Darren.
It's my one rule.
You guys should listen
to me because I'm the
only one keeping the
lights on at this place.
I'm the only one with a real job.
Well, nephew, I believe we have a deal,
don't we?
This is my place.
You stay here and you don't hold out on
me.
So now what do you
think the boss of that cabin
would do if she knew
about your little legal record?
Well?
Find another way.
Please.
Leave me alone.
I don't want to tell you where I am.
Yes, yes.
Obviously I understand.
Obviously.
You don't care about listening.
Well, you need to do me in.
Why would I do that?
It means you are not in control anymore.
Look, you are the love of my life,
okay?
I would do anything for you, anything.
I am trying to make sure that we do
this perfectly so that we do good stuff.
Bury every episode like they never even
existed.
I know you're scared to do this.
So, if it's too late for a pill,
I will pay for a house visit.
Let
me take care of this.
Where are you?
Fine, fine.
If you want to let this play out your way,
I will start looking at property in
France, next to Woody
Allen and Roman Polanski,
because that is
how they'll spin this.
Is that what you want?
Wouldn't be much of a spin, I guess.
Don't you dare.
Don't you dare turn on me now.
Don't you dare try and paint
this into some kind of a... Me too.
So soon as America... Good luck convincing
them you're some sort of an angel.
I got out of town and cleared my head.
This is not helping.
I got it done.
No.
Lauren, please.
Sweetheart, I'm sorry.
You're not listening to me, no bad news.
Goodbye.
Clearing her head!
What about my wife?
My kids?
Come down.
I gave her a life.
I gave her a career of millions of
dollars.
Network TV money, man.
Now she's threatening the show.
My show?
Hundreds of people would lose their jobs,
their livelihoods.
The network?
It'd be a full shutdown.
How about the fans?
What about the fans?
Hey Lauren, knock knock.
What do you want to say to the fans?
No, she has all the leverage.
Just like that.
My entire existence.
At the mercy of an emotionally unstable,
talentless brat.
No need for these Derrick's.
You pay, it's done.
Guaranteed friend.
One road.
And everybody knows they killed FC in a
sloppy.
But Mowling, on the other hand,
who knows?
She likes the good life.
It's hard to be a star.
Lots of pressure.
Booze, drugs.
And then someone hacked her iCloud.
Posted her nudes all over the internet.
Wouldn't be such a big deal if her rabid
fans weren't so violent and Puritan.
So she takes a drive somewhere.
Try to take the edge off with some booze
and pearls who can blame her.
And suddenly she mixes her eyes.
Happens all the time.
People fuck up.
Especially stars.
Then they just drift away.
Gone.
America would believe that.
America will believe anything if you sell
it to them, right?
Georgie, please.
What are you doing over there?
Georgie.
Georgie.
You really need to watch.
Bed time, Georgie.
Hey, Merck.
Merck.
Hey.
Hey, Merck.
Come on.
Erin?
Damn it.
It's bright, bro.
Listen to me.
Go in there and get this stuff and we get
out simple.
We worked like a child last time.
You heard me?
Hey, you hear me?
Hey, DHD boy.
I ain't going back to the pen.
Yeah, whatever you say, boss.
Boss.
What, Georgie?
Georgie, what is it?
Georgie.
I'm locked.
I'm locked.
Hold that shit.
I got her.
Shut the fuck up.
What are you doing?
Shut the fuck up.
Just grab
anything that I will sell.
Come on, Graham.
What the shit are you doing?
I don't know what you're doing.
Just put it out through the water.
It's like you're using a straight focus,
right?
What?
It's both interesting and shit.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like some ranch, ranch.
That cranking style is really kicking in,
man.
I don't think this is good.
What do you want?
I can hear you.
I can hear you breathing through there.
Don't even think about it.
Leave me, man.
No, leave me.
Go away.
We're not going in there.
Let's just get this shit and get out of
here.
Come on, don't you want to have some fun?
What?
No, that's not part of the plan.
What about the plan to change?
I'm the guy with the gun.
Oh, what's the plan?
So you don't know who we are.
But if we open that door, it's all over.
You're on your third strike.
Am I wrong?
She doesn't say shit.
We make sure we don't easy beat.
Are you an idiot?
Listen to sense, man.
Look at what... Look at what...
Look at what... I already
heard her name, bro.
You wait.
Are you out?
What the fuck, you guys?
You promise?
Fuck this.
She's right.
All right, all right.
Stop, stop, stop.
Enough.
Yeah, I'm going to take his phone.
Your uncle took your phone.
I'm going to take your shit.
Where is she?
Huh?
You shouldn't have done that.
You know she's famous.
I'm a darnish.
You messed it all up.
The fuck did he say?
I'm done with you.
Your friend.
I don't know this stuff.
All the shit I've done for you.
Come on.
Take everything I wouldn't tell anyone.
I won't say a word.
You hear me?
Not a word.
I mean, she's cool, y'all.
Maybe she's cool with it.
Okay, I'm going to open the door now.
Thanks.
Thanks.
What the fuck are you doing?
You're alone.
Give me the gun.
Let go of me.
Let go of the gun.
You shouldn't go for the gun, man.
He was going to shoot all of us.
What the fuck did you do?
Dude.
He was up there and helped me out.
You're right, kid.
Leave him alone.
I'm going
to go back to jail, dude.
You fucked us up so bad.
I can't go back to jail.
We don't do so good in jail, man.
Just do it, just do it.
Just do it, yeah.
Just fucking do it.
Just fucking do it.
What about her?
It's your fault.
You...
You in there.
I'm going to kill you too, goddammit!
Just fucking do it!
Let's go.
You just look right.
She's not going anywhere.
I'm going to go back to jail.
I'm going to clean this shit up,
okay?
But we've got to go right now.
Right now!
It's going to be!
Oh!
Oh!
Help!
Help!
Georgie!
Oh my god.
Come on.
People are always under arrest for
fighting.
I know I was going to use my bones.
I'm so sorry, baby.
Will you forgive me?
I'll help them out.
I don't know.
Let's see.
I'm not today's son of a bitch.
I need water, baby.
I'm going to be crazy with you soon.
It's like Dr. Kirscher says.
That's the spirit.
Breathe.
Wait, wait.
Yeah, okay.
Oh no!
Oh no!
Oh my god.
Is that Grace?
Grace?
Fuck.
You did this.
You did this.
I can help you!
Help me, huh?
How the hell can you help me?
But this isn't your fault, okay?
Nephew, your friend, none of this is your
fault, okay?
Just take whatever you want and go.
I'll vouch for you.
What about me?
Both of you, I promise.
Take whatever you want.
Did you see the Porsche?
They'll send me vouch for you.
I have money.
I can make all of this go away.
I can set you up with something really,
really nice.
I can make it all happen, okay?
No problems.
Take whatever you want and leave.
I mean, I'll just tell you the truth.
I'll just... I'm stuck in here.
I didn't see anyone.
I can't see anyone.
Why'd you have to shoot him through the
head?
I want to make it look more like a
suicide.
But now we can't have an overcast.
Well, that's just great.
Okay, okay, it's like this.
Your nephew, he was chasing me around the
house, okay?
He's one of my violent stalkers.
And I'm finally within reach after all
these years.
And I'm running around.
I'm screaming.
And finally I have to hide in here,
right?
Of course.
And we have a tug-of-war with the door.
When, bam, his gun goes off.
I can hear him groaning.
The light is leaving his body every
breath.
And knowing it's all over, I hear him
crashing against the wall.
I can hear him put the gun in his mouth.
And he's mumbling something about his
mother.
She left him when he was a baby.
And he misses her whole life.
But he sees her now.
And the last thing he said was,
I'm sorry.
Jesus Christ, you're one messed up bitch.
If that's the story you want me to tell,
I will sell the shit out of it.
I will probably help my career.
Darren?
Darren, right?
I'm an actress.
I can do this.
I can help you.
I did.
Even her life is a massive lie.
But could it be both?
Seeing what you make is his own goal.
It's enough to ID us both.
No, no, no.
That's not true.
I won't say a word.
I swear.
I swear.
Not a goddamn word.
Alright.
Okay.
Honey, you got yourself a deal.
No, no, no, no, no.
Can you just hear me out for one second,
please?
Stand back.
What?
Hey, stand back!
Oh, hold on.
Oh, hold on!
I got shot.
I'm pregnant!
The father, he's my co-star.
He's famous.
He has a lot of money too.
You know him.
Everyone knows him.
You ever see the Johnson's?
I love the children.
Please, please, please.
Please, please.
I'm gonna die like this.
I'm gonna be a mother.
I'm gonna be... I'm
gonna be a mother.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, God, I'm gonna die.
I'm gonna die.
I know the audience likes our story.
This might start off real.
Oh, yeah?
Okay.
Well, what's going on here?
Hi.
Hey, Dylan, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dylan, we are so happy to have you.
Dylan, would you give me a moment with
Lauren?
We need to go over some notes I have for
scene six.
Sure.
Yes, sir.
Absolutely.
I'll see you later, Lauren.
Yeah, later.
Bye.
Thanks, kid.
He's sweet.
It's a cute kid.
He is.
He's not my type,
so... Which scene?
Hey,
so... Do you hear me?
Do you hear me?
Do you see it?
Do you see that?
Something's there.
Like... We've broken through.
What is it?
His name is Darren Connelly.
I ran him.
His last name cost him five years in the
family.
It sounds like a drug deal going wrong.
He said something about a woman.
Pregnance and she was stuck.
He was hallucinated, though, so it's hard
to tell.
He was loosing her rampant.
We'll look into it.
Let us know when he wakes up, dog.
What you doing out there, huh?
Good.
Well, hello there.
My name's Loretta.
Taking it you can't talk right now.
So I'm just going to call you,
honey.
All right.
Don't... I'm not
going to hurt you.
I'm just... I'm not going
to go anywhere, okay?
Oh.
What a beauty.
Oh.
Oh, Georgie.
Hmm.
Hmm.
I'm just going to call you.
All right.
We're out to this, baby.
She's got good teeth.
She's recently growned.
I bet she's chipped.
Yeah, Georgie's her name.
There's a phone number on the tag.
Called it.
No answer.
I'm going to have to run some more tests
and make sure nothing's going on internally.
Aw, I wonder if she's so ornery.
I'd be damn ornery too, sweetheart.
Somebody left me by the side of the road.
You got a way to pay Loretta?
Yeah, just, you know, do what you have to
do for her.
I'm always good for it.
I'll figure something out.
We'll keep trying that number.
Yeah, yeah.
It seems like she's lost.
I forgot.
Okay, you can bet on it.
Okay, over here, sweetheart.
Oh, that's great.
Okay.
Uploaded.
Now let's just hope somebody recognizes
this poor little baby.
You got me out of bed for this?
It's after sex.
Waking up early is good for you.
Nice one, gentlemen.
You pays me cash.
I'll never keep losing you ever.
Reckon?
I owe you lots.
Who else lived here?
Um, roommate.
Who knows name?
I just left you.
Nice kid.
Any of them work?
A kid's only got a job out of their B&B.
A PCH.
Nice place, he said.
You think you want to lower it or
something?
Found something.
Stay here.
Yeah, sure.
Yeah.
What a mess.
You guys want to tell me what this is all
about?
Call it in.
Okay.
Hey!
Hey, nurse!
Hey, nurse!
Shit, this ain't right.
Some kind of mistake!
Man, come on here.
Give me a hand.
Come on.
Hey, nurse!
I want to go and clean up!
Uh, cover for me, darling.
I need a little potty break.
He's got you.
What?
Why do I have Lauren Lane's dog?
8,000 likes?
That's ridiculous!
Hello?
Hello, colleagues.
Sir, if this is about my card,
I told you that I would pay the minimum
and that I would get to you as
soon as I... This is about a dog.
You rescue dogs, don't you?
Oh, yes.
Yes, I do.
That's me, yes.
Fantastic.
Here's a dog for myself.
Uh-huh, uh-huh.
Miss Collins.
I'm a private detective.
My client has paid me a lot of money to
find out exactly how you got a hold of his.
..
His friend's puppy.
Be worried.
Understand it yourself.
Um... Okay.
The puppy you picked up yesterday, can you
tell me exactly where you picked him up?
Mister, I don't know nothing about
Georgie.
When I found him, he was wet and dirty,
and that is all I know.
And right now, I gotta hang up the phone.
I gotta get back to my shift before I get
fired.
My client wants to know exactly where you
found that dog.
He's wanting to pay
you enough that you can
tell your mom and hot
grocery bosses to soak it.
How do you know where I am?
Wait a minute.
This isn't about Georgie.
Who is this?
Good morning.
Where's your nephew, Darren?
Where's Mark?
I don't know.
Why are you asking?
He's a big boy.
I could be at home.
I'm not my nephew's keeper.
Your nephew is gone.
Your roommate is gone.
And the apartment manager hasn't seen him
in two days.
You went to my place?
You want to talk?
As a matter of fact, I will say something.
My nephew and my roommate are troubled
boys.
They're tweaking.
You know how it is.
They could be anywhere.
I don't know what the hell they are.
And where does your nephew work?
I don't know.
You don't know the name of the place your
nephew works at?
No, I don't know.
You just started working there.
What?
I don't know.
He just started working there.
You want to tell us how you got shot?
Well, shit, it was my own fault.
I was trying to open something.
And I got frustrated.
And I shot the lock.
What lock?
At your apartment?
Because we didn't find any damage.
No casings.
Nothing.
Fuck y'all.
How about you tell us what happened?
Because we found blood
splattered on a t-shirt in
your bathroom and we've
already sent it to the lab.
You make this easy on us and we'll make it
easy on you.
How about you give me a lawyer?
You're gonna need a buddy.
I know how many fucking heavy imputes
there are at the Coastal Hall.
Your message.
Hey, hi.
It's me again, it's Loretta.
Yeah, I wish you'd answer.
Uh, I know you love Georgie.
I know you do.
I hope you're okay.
I'm praying for you.
Just call me.
Hi, sir.
How can I help you?
Is the doctor in?
Wait, wait, sir, do you have an
appointment?
Sir?
I mean, Georgie's gonna be fine.
People have been pounding the clinic all
day.
My client wants to pay for any medical
bills that I've incurred.
Okay, that would be great.
I mean, Loretta lives off of donations,
so every little bit helps.
Wait, I'm confused.
Are you Georgie's owner?
It's my client's.
Okay, okay, that's fine.
That's fine too.
I'm sure that's easy to prove.
You got documentation?
I mean, like a dog license?
No, it's something that proves you are who
you say you are.
You calling me a liar?
No.
Just joking.
What I really need to know is where you
found that dog.
If the dog is injured, even it might be
too, right?
I don't want to tell you.
I wish I could help Mars.
Loretta brings in straggs who are hurt
before the pound does.
Loretta and I are similar business.
If she comes in before calls, give me your
ring.
Okay, but it's not really a cash thing.
A strange visitor we got a fan consuming.
He's felt a bunch of cash in my hand.
Do you have a ticket for the night?
I'm not in the mood to go sleeping with
the fishes.
I'll have a volunteer bring her out to
you.
Yeah, that's okay.
Okay, I'm coming.
I'm gonna come.
Okay,
I'm coming, Georgie.
I'm sorry, Judy.
I gotta run.
I'm not a regular dog, Loretta.
I can't get her to your job back.
Hey.
Hey, man.
Hey, I really got a pee.
You mind?
I gotta go real bad.
Loretta, that's me, darling.
Don't you worry, don't you stay with me
now.
Okay, bye.
Have a good day.
Okay, good girl.
I'm giving you a bath.
You smell good.
I sorta hate my job.
When it's a kind of deal with all those
people, I'd much rather work in a dog store.
Wouldn't that be great if it was a doggy
store and I could ring you up?
You're looking for a spot.
He's okay.
You're sniffing around.
Hold on, honey.
Hold on.
One second.
Let me get you on a leash.
Oh.
Well, I'll be damned.
Straight out of homework bound.
Come on, Georgie.
Let's find your owner.
Hello?
Hello?
Hello?
Anybody in there?
How's your dog?
Georgie!
What a big house.
Hello, miss.
I have Georgie.
I have him.
Oh, my God.
Help me, mom.
Where is she?
Useful idiot.
Hey, buddy.
Quiet.
This is the thing about the leash,
isn't it?
I think we found something.
The
property is an answering.
Manager's name is, uh, Marcus Straight.
Copy that.
I don't have a code.
Uh, sir, I don't mean to ask so many
questions, but who are you?
Private security.
Oh, okay.
Well, then, I could just call...
If you even move without my permission,
I will shoot you without hesitation.
What?
Some private security.
Come on.
Hey.
Let's just say this went from Monroe to
the Helter Skelter.
Looks like the Manson family paid a visit.
Not a little, not a little.
It's in a bad spot.
Sharon Tate.
Natalie Wood was the one they killed on a
boat.
Excuse me.
Sharon Tate.
What the fuck is that?
Loretta.
From Loretta Dog Rescue.
Yeah, that's Loretta from Loretta Dog
Rescue.
Don't worry about her.
Despite the mess, I'll take care of
everything.
Call the consultant.
Get it done.
I think you should probably hurry up and
save her.
Would you do me a favor?
Stand up.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come
on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
I'm Loretta.
I brought back your dog.
There we go.
Come on, honey.
Let's go over here.
I don't know if you want to hear this
right now, but...
I think you squashed your bodyguard.
What?
The security guy, he's under there.
Don't weapon!
Hand me your hand!
Don't make me an ambulance.
Multiple bodies, stand back up now,
ma'am.
Step away from the weapon now!
Ow!
Ow!
Wait a minute.
Are you...?
This is a little bit of an investigation.
I cannot... Oh, for Pete's sake.
She's owed a phone call.
That's Sally Johnson here.
It's on the bed.
Here he comes.
Here he comes.
Here you go, ma'am.
I
Don't care what it costs.
I want her off the show.
She's become a real problem.
And some of these tourists she's been
telling, it's nuts.
She's lost her plot.
She's crazy.
I wasn't going to bring
this up like ever, but the
crew have been complaining
about her for years.
Yeah, you ever wonder why Stephen Mayer's
walked?
She's difficult, man.
Unemployable.
Look, it's America's dad.
Yeah, get the fuck out of here.
I'm going to call my lawyer.
I'm calling my lawyer.
I'm calling my lawyer.
I'm calling my lawyer.
Nope, nope.
I do it on the set.
Emily Barnes.
Barnley.
Good morning from sunny california.
thousend faces are waking up to their
first nightmare.
Another celebrity hacking scandal.
I'm Jessica Collins,
coming to you live from
Los Angeles with
breaking news on this story.
A shocking security breach overnight.
Plotting the Internet with explicit images
of private information, even passwords
belonging to some of Hollywood's biggest
names.
And at the center of the media storm,
America's sweetheart Lauren Lane.
Just hours ago, the intimate personal
images belonging to the Emmy award-winning
actress leaked online, igniting a
firestorm of views with Lane's name
currently topping the list of
post-searched terms on the Internet.
But perhaps most shocking to many is this
photo of a positive pregnancy test,
which has already spurred down rumors and
speculation about who the father may be.
Lane has yet to make a public statement
that fans and fellow celebs are rallying
behind the star, who's best known as the
world's most pathetic women in terms of
the entire population of some of the
so-called male.
And when private change, sex trafficking,
love and poverty were raised, please,
no existential doubt.
And today, my clumsiness was just kicked
in.
Here,
please, it's weird.
I'm pretty like you.
I'm interested in sending something over.
Feels cozy, remote, no service for miles.
Please don't connect to the Wi-Fi.
Lauren, give yourself a break.
You sure you don't want me to go with you?
I'm gonna be alone.
Okay.
With production proceeds of 11,
help us wonder if Shuffle
finds its way into the
storyline of famously
successful Sally Johnson.
Give it about 10 minutes.
I sent you the keypad code.
You're an angel.
I love you.
Thank you.
You got this.
Take a break to relax.
This is so fucking different.
I'm just gonna find out.
No, no one's gonna find out anything.
Hey, hey.
Look at me.
What the doctor Kershaw was saying.
There you are.
I'll go.
So, what are you saying?
Lauren, listen.
I've been your agent for how long now.
No one is more upset about this than me.
I feel like literally so violated right
now.
Excuse me?
You're America's daughter.
You're Sally Johnson from the Johnsons for
God's sake.
And whatever little dipshit hacker did
this just became a sum-up in fucking mud.
And we are gonna find him, kill him,
and bury his ass in the ocean.
And everyone has your back on this.
Okay?
But there are questions.
Questions?
Um, yeah.
The network is curious about that picture
of the positive pregnancy test.
What about it?
It obviously would affect production.
Um, it's cold.
I-I know.
Obviously, everyone here, especially the
network, is teamier.
We just need to know what that means.
Maybe it isn't even yours.
Grace could fake a pregnancy for you on
this one.
I am not asking my assistant to fake a
pregnancy to-Are you serious, Andra?
Lauren, I just need to know what to tell
the American people right now.
Tell the American people that they can
fuck off.
Lauren?
Yep.
Good stuff, Georgie.
Good stuff it is.
Mom, you gotta stop calling.
You need something called, Grace.
Please.
I don't know.
It's a quiet little place or something.
Just gotta clear my head.
Wow, really.
You're embarrassed.
Yeah.
Well, if your friends are so judgmental
and stop taking them on weekend trips and
buying them fancy
dinners with my money that
I've been making use
since I was eight years old.
Do you?
Did you really just ask me that?
Do I know who the father is?
You were there!
Come on, Georgie.
Go.
This is nice, Georgie.
Georgie!
Georgie!
Wow.
Come on, Georgie.
I can't.
I have to babysit Billy tonight.
Yeah, he totally peed off Dad.
He stole his bike and crashed it in his
sunflowers.
I know.
Do you need help with the math homework?
Yeah, Mr. Mathers.
He's totally kicking my butt with his
equations right now.
Hey, Jaydee.
You're going in the movies?
Don't worry, Georgie.
It's just a fantasy.
Followed up by the trees alone.
Stab at some poetry, Georgie.
How crap.
Thank you.
Welcome to the very sound stage.
Lauren Lane is America's sweetheart,
Sally Johnson.
Our new guest star and possible boyfriend,
Dylan Price, is the handsome heartbreaker,
Skyler.
America's favorite dad, Peter Johnson,
as Peter Johnson.
He's helping Billy get his first.
He says, I could totally go over to the
prom and do a kickflip into his butt.
It's sweet, but that won't be necessary,
Billy.
Whatever.
Let's go, Conner.
You kids, no skateboarding in the house.
Your brothers really love you.
You know that?
I know.
You know who else loves you?
This guy right here.
I've loved you since the first day I held
you in my arms.
And I will until the day I die,
because family is forever.
And boyfriends, well, they come and they
go.
And sometimes they really stink.
Dad, that's so dumb.
Thank you.
There, there, there.
What?
Hi, Peter.
Hair and makeup continue now.
I'll be there when I'm good and ready.
I love you.
You really fucked it up, huh?
You think I'm gonna sit around and wait to
see what Michael do this time?
We need cash.
We need cash fast.
What if we do a startup?
I always wanted to do a startup.
How about you start up
another one of these so I
don't feel a thing when I
get my brains blown out?
Say that?
You guys don't listen.
A startup could take years to mature to
any real profit.
What do you know about a Marcus?
I watch your YouTube dipshit.
That's right, he does.
You heard him.
He takes years.
He's got an entrepreneurial mind.
He's watching his videos.
What about that fancy little cabin gig you
got?
They got somebody know in there?
No.
Not really.
It's off limits, Darren.
It's my one rule.
You guys should listen
to me because I'm the
only one keeping the
lights on at this place.
I'm the only one with a real job.
Well, nephew, I believe we have a deal,
don't we?
This is my place.
You stay here and you don't hold out on
me.
So now what do you
think the boss of that cabin
would do if she knew
about your little legal record?
Well?
Find another way.
Please.
Leave me alone.
I don't want to tell you where I am.
Yes, yes.
Obviously I understand.
Obviously.
You don't care about listening.
Well, you need to do me in.
Why would I do that?
It means you are not in control anymore.
Look, you are the love of my life,
okay?
I would do anything for you, anything.
I am trying to make sure that we do
this perfectly so that we do good stuff.
Bury every episode like they never even
existed.
I know you're scared to do this.
So, if it's too late for a pill,
I will pay for a house visit.
Let
me take care of this.
Where are you?
Fine, fine.
If you want to let this play out your way,
I will start looking at property in
France, next to Woody
Allen and Roman Polanski,
because that is
how they'll spin this.
Is that what you want?
Wouldn't be much of a spin, I guess.
Don't you dare.
Don't you dare turn on me now.
Don't you dare try and paint
this into some kind of a... Me too.
So soon as America... Good luck convincing
them you're some sort of an angel.
I got out of town and cleared my head.
This is not helping.
I got it done.
No.
Lauren, please.
Sweetheart, I'm sorry.
You're not listening to me, no bad news.
Goodbye.
Clearing her head!
What about my wife?
My kids?
Come down.
I gave her a life.
I gave her a career of millions of
dollars.
Network TV money, man.
Now she's threatening the show.
My show?
Hundreds of people would lose their jobs,
their livelihoods.
The network?
It'd be a full shutdown.
How about the fans?
What about the fans?
Hey Lauren, knock knock.
What do you want to say to the fans?
No, she has all the leverage.
Just like that.
My entire existence.
At the mercy of an emotionally unstable,
talentless brat.
No need for these Derrick's.
You pay, it's done.
Guaranteed friend.
One road.
And everybody knows they killed FC in a
sloppy.
But Mowling, on the other hand,
who knows?
She likes the good life.
It's hard to be a star.
Lots of pressure.
Booze, drugs.
And then someone hacked her iCloud.
Posted her nudes all over the internet.
Wouldn't be such a big deal if her rabid
fans weren't so violent and Puritan.
So she takes a drive somewhere.
Try to take the edge off with some booze
and pearls who can blame her.
And suddenly she mixes her eyes.
Happens all the time.
People fuck up.
Especially stars.
Then they just drift away.
Gone.
America would believe that.
America will believe anything if you sell
it to them, right?
Georgie, please.
What are you doing over there?
Georgie.
Georgie.
You really need to watch.
Bed time, Georgie.
Hey, Merck.
Merck.
Hey.
Hey, Merck.
Come on.
Erin?
Damn it.
It's bright, bro.
Listen to me.
Go in there and get this stuff and we get
out simple.
We worked like a child last time.
You heard me?
Hey, you hear me?
Hey, DHD boy.
I ain't going back to the pen.
Yeah, whatever you say, boss.
Boss.
What, Georgie?
Georgie, what is it?
Georgie.
I'm locked.
I'm locked.
Hold that shit.
I got her.
Shut the fuck up.
What are you doing?
Shut the fuck up.
Just grab
anything that I will sell.
Come on, Graham.
What the shit are you doing?
I don't know what you're doing.
Just put it out through the water.
It's like you're using a straight focus,
right?
What?
It's both interesting and shit.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like some ranch, ranch.
That cranking style is really kicking in,
man.
I don't think this is good.
What do you want?
I can hear you.
I can hear you breathing through there.
Don't even think about it.
Leave me, man.
No, leave me.
Go away.
We're not going in there.
Let's just get this shit and get out of
here.
Come on, don't you want to have some fun?
What?
No, that's not part of the plan.
What about the plan to change?
I'm the guy with the gun.
Oh, what's the plan?
So you don't know who we are.
But if we open that door, it's all over.
You're on your third strike.
Am I wrong?
She doesn't say shit.
We make sure we don't easy beat.
Are you an idiot?
Listen to sense, man.
Look at what... Look at what...
Look at what... I already
heard her name, bro.
You wait.
Are you out?
What the fuck, you guys?
You promise?
Fuck this.
She's right.
All right, all right.
Stop, stop, stop.
Enough.
Yeah, I'm going to take his phone.
Your uncle took your phone.
I'm going to take your shit.
Where is she?
Huh?
You shouldn't have done that.
You know she's famous.
I'm a darnish.
You messed it all up.
The fuck did he say?
I'm done with you.
Your friend.
I don't know this stuff.
All the shit I've done for you.
Come on.
Take everything I wouldn't tell anyone.
I won't say a word.
You hear me?
Not a word.
I mean, she's cool, y'all.
Maybe she's cool with it.
Okay, I'm going to open the door now.
Thanks.
Thanks.
What the fuck are you doing?
You're alone.
Give me the gun.
Let go of me.
Let go of the gun.
You shouldn't go for the gun, man.
He was going to shoot all of us.
What the fuck did you do?
Dude.
He was up there and helped me out.
You're right, kid.
Leave him alone.
I'm going
to go back to jail, dude.
You fucked us up so bad.
I can't go back to jail.
We don't do so good in jail, man.
Just do it, just do it.
Just do it, yeah.
Just fucking do it.
Just fucking do it.
What about her?
It's your fault.
You...
You in there.
I'm going to kill you too, goddammit!
Just fucking do it!
Let's go.
You just look right.
She's not going anywhere.
I'm going to go back to jail.
I'm going to clean this shit up,
okay?
But we've got to go right now.
Right now!
It's going to be!
Oh!
Oh!
Help!
Help!
Georgie!
Oh my god.
Come on.
People are always under arrest for
fighting.
I know I was going to use my bones.
I'm so sorry, baby.
Will you forgive me?
I'll help them out.
I don't know.
Let's see.
I'm not today's son of a bitch.
I need water, baby.
I'm going to be crazy with you soon.
It's like Dr. Kirscher says.
That's the spirit.
Breathe.
Wait, wait.
Yeah, okay.
Oh no!
Oh no!
Oh my god.
Is that Grace?
Grace?
Fuck.
You did this.
You did this.
I can help you!
Help me, huh?
How the hell can you help me?
But this isn't your fault, okay?
Nephew, your friend, none of this is your
fault, okay?
Just take whatever you want and go.
I'll vouch for you.
What about me?
Both of you, I promise.
Take whatever you want.
Did you see the Porsche?
They'll send me vouch for you.
I have money.
I can make all of this go away.
I can set you up with something really,
really nice.
I can make it all happen, okay?
No problems.
Take whatever you want and leave.
I mean, I'll just tell you the truth.
I'll just... I'm stuck in here.
I didn't see anyone.
I can't see anyone.
Why'd you have to shoot him through the
head?
I want to make it look more like a
suicide.
But now we can't have an overcast.
Well, that's just great.
Okay, okay, it's like this.
Your nephew, he was chasing me around the
house, okay?
He's one of my violent stalkers.
And I'm finally within reach after all
these years.
And I'm running around.
I'm screaming.
And finally I have to hide in here,
right?
Of course.
And we have a tug-of-war with the door.
When, bam, his gun goes off.
I can hear him groaning.
The light is leaving his body every
breath.
And knowing it's all over, I hear him
crashing against the wall.
I can hear him put the gun in his mouth.
And he's mumbling something about his
mother.
She left him when he was a baby.
And he misses her whole life.
But he sees her now.
And the last thing he said was,
I'm sorry.
Jesus Christ, you're one messed up bitch.
If that's the story you want me to tell,
I will sell the shit out of it.
I will probably help my career.
Darren?
Darren, right?
I'm an actress.
I can do this.
I can help you.
I did.
Even her life is a massive lie.
But could it be both?
Seeing what you make is his own goal.
It's enough to ID us both.
No, no, no.
That's not true.
I won't say a word.
I swear.
I swear.
Not a goddamn word.
Alright.
Okay.
Honey, you got yourself a deal.
No, no, no, no, no.
Can you just hear me out for one second,
please?
Stand back.
What?
Hey, stand back!
Oh, hold on.
Oh, hold on!
I got shot.
I'm pregnant!
The father, he's my co-star.
He's famous.
He has a lot of money too.
You know him.
Everyone knows him.
You ever see the Johnson's?
I love the children.
Please, please, please.
Please, please.
I'm gonna die like this.
I'm gonna be a mother.
I'm gonna be... I'm
gonna be a mother.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, God, I'm gonna die.
I'm gonna die.
I know the audience likes our story.
This might start off real.
Oh, yeah?
Okay.
Well, what's going on here?
Hi.
Hey, Dylan, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dylan, we are so happy to have you.
Dylan, would you give me a moment with
Lauren?
We need to go over some notes I have for
scene six.
Sure.
Yes, sir.
Absolutely.
I'll see you later, Lauren.
Yeah, later.
Bye.
Thanks, kid.
He's sweet.
It's a cute kid.
He is.
He's not my type,
so... Which scene?
Hey,
so... Do you hear me?
Do you hear me?
Do you see it?
Do you see that?
Something's there.
Like... We've broken through.
What is it?
His name is Darren Connelly.
I ran him.
His last name cost him five years in the
family.
It sounds like a drug deal going wrong.
He said something about a woman.
Pregnance and she was stuck.
He was hallucinated, though, so it's hard
to tell.
He was loosing her rampant.
We'll look into it.
Let us know when he wakes up, dog.
What you doing out there, huh?
Good.
Well, hello there.
My name's Loretta.
Taking it you can't talk right now.
So I'm just going to call you,
honey.
All right.
Don't... I'm not
going to hurt you.
I'm just... I'm not going
to go anywhere, okay?
Oh.
What a beauty.
Oh.
Oh, Georgie.
Hmm.
Hmm.
I'm just going to call you.
All right.
We're out to this, baby.
She's got good teeth.
She's recently growned.
I bet she's chipped.
Yeah, Georgie's her name.
There's a phone number on the tag.
Called it.
No answer.
I'm going to have to run some more tests
and make sure nothing's going on internally.
Aw, I wonder if she's so ornery.
I'd be damn ornery too, sweetheart.
Somebody left me by the side of the road.
You got a way to pay Loretta?
Yeah, just, you know, do what you have to
do for her.
I'm always good for it.
I'll figure something out.
We'll keep trying that number.
Yeah, yeah.
It seems like she's lost.
I forgot.
Okay, you can bet on it.
Okay, over here, sweetheart.
Oh, that's great.
Okay.
Uploaded.
Now let's just hope somebody recognizes
this poor little baby.
You got me out of bed for this?
It's after sex.
Waking up early is good for you.
Nice one, gentlemen.
You pays me cash.
I'll never keep losing you ever.
Reckon?
I owe you lots.
Who else lived here?
Um, roommate.
Who knows name?
I just left you.
Nice kid.
Any of them work?
A kid's only got a job out of their B&B.
A PCH.
Nice place, he said.
You think you want to lower it or
something?
Found something.
Stay here.
Yeah, sure.
Yeah.
What a mess.
You guys want to tell me what this is all
about?
Call it in.
Okay.
Hey!
Hey, nurse!
Hey, nurse!
Shit, this ain't right.
Some kind of mistake!
Man, come on here.
Give me a hand.
Come on.
Hey, nurse!
I want to go and clean up!
Uh, cover for me, darling.
I need a little potty break.
He's got you.
What?
Why do I have Lauren Lane's dog?
8,000 likes?
That's ridiculous!
Hello?
Hello, colleagues.
Sir, if this is about my card,
I told you that I would pay the minimum
and that I would get to you as
soon as I... This is about a dog.
You rescue dogs, don't you?
Oh, yes.
Yes, I do.
That's me, yes.
Fantastic.
Here's a dog for myself.
Uh-huh, uh-huh.
Miss Collins.
I'm a private detective.
My client has paid me a lot of money to
find out exactly how you got a hold of his.
..
His friend's puppy.
Be worried.
Understand it yourself.
Um... Okay.
The puppy you picked up yesterday, can you
tell me exactly where you picked him up?
Mister, I don't know nothing about
Georgie.
When I found him, he was wet and dirty,
and that is all I know.
And right now, I gotta hang up the phone.
I gotta get back to my shift before I get
fired.
My client wants to know exactly where you
found that dog.
He's wanting to pay
you enough that you can
tell your mom and hot
grocery bosses to soak it.
How do you know where I am?
Wait a minute.
This isn't about Georgie.
Who is this?
Good morning.
Where's your nephew, Darren?
Where's Mark?
I don't know.
Why are you asking?
He's a big boy.
I could be at home.
I'm not my nephew's keeper.
Your nephew is gone.
Your roommate is gone.
And the apartment manager hasn't seen him
in two days.
You went to my place?
You want to talk?
As a matter of fact, I will say something.
My nephew and my roommate are troubled
boys.
They're tweaking.
You know how it is.
They could be anywhere.
I don't know what the hell they are.
And where does your nephew work?
I don't know.
You don't know the name of the place your
nephew works at?
No, I don't know.
You just started working there.
What?
I don't know.
He just started working there.
You want to tell us how you got shot?
Well, shit, it was my own fault.
I was trying to open something.
And I got frustrated.
And I shot the lock.
What lock?
At your apartment?
Because we didn't find any damage.
No casings.
Nothing.
Fuck y'all.
How about you tell us what happened?
Because we found blood
splattered on a t-shirt in
your bathroom and we've
already sent it to the lab.
You make this easy on us and we'll make it
easy on you.
How about you give me a lawyer?
You're gonna need a buddy.
I know how many fucking heavy imputes
there are at the Coastal Hall.
Your message.
Hey, hi.
It's me again, it's Loretta.
Yeah, I wish you'd answer.
Uh, I know you love Georgie.
I know you do.
I hope you're okay.
I'm praying for you.
Just call me.
Hi, sir.
How can I help you?
Is the doctor in?
Wait, wait, sir, do you have an
appointment?
Sir?
I mean, Georgie's gonna be fine.
People have been pounding the clinic all
day.
My client wants to pay for any medical
bills that I've incurred.
Okay, that would be great.
I mean, Loretta lives off of donations,
so every little bit helps.
Wait, I'm confused.
Are you Georgie's owner?
It's my client's.
Okay, okay, that's fine.
That's fine too.
I'm sure that's easy to prove.
You got documentation?
I mean, like a dog license?
No, it's something that proves you are who
you say you are.
You calling me a liar?
No.
Just joking.
What I really need to know is where you
found that dog.
If the dog is injured, even it might be
too, right?
I don't want to tell you.
I wish I could help Mars.
Loretta brings in straggs who are hurt
before the pound does.
Loretta and I are similar business.
If she comes in before calls, give me your
ring.
Okay, but it's not really a cash thing.
A strange visitor we got a fan consuming.
He's felt a bunch of cash in my hand.
Do you have a ticket for the night?
I'm not in the mood to go sleeping with
the fishes.
I'll have a volunteer bring her out to
you.
Yeah, that's okay.
Okay, I'm coming.
I'm gonna come.
Okay,
I'm coming, Georgie.
I'm sorry, Judy.
I gotta run.
I'm not a regular dog, Loretta.
I can't get her to your job back.
Hey.
Hey, man.
Hey, I really got a pee.
You mind?
I gotta go real bad.
Loretta, that's me, darling.
Don't you worry, don't you stay with me
now.
Okay, bye.
Have a good day.
Okay, good girl.
I'm giving you a bath.
You smell good.
I sorta hate my job.
When it's a kind of deal with all those
people, I'd much rather work in a dog store.
Wouldn't that be great if it was a doggy
store and I could ring you up?
You're looking for a spot.
He's okay.
You're sniffing around.
Hold on, honey.
Hold on.
One second.
Let me get you on a leash.
Oh.
Well, I'll be damned.
Straight out of homework bound.
Come on, Georgie.
Let's find your owner.
Hello?
Hello?
Hello?
Anybody in there?
How's your dog?
Georgie!
What a big house.
Hello, miss.
I have Georgie.
I have him.
Oh, my God.
Help me, mom.
Where is she?
Useful idiot.
Hey, buddy.
Quiet.
This is the thing about the leash,
isn't it?
I think we found something.
The
property is an answering.
Manager's name is, uh, Marcus Straight.
Copy that.
I don't have a code.
Uh, sir, I don't mean to ask so many

If you even move without my permission,
I will shoot you without hesitation.
What?
Some private security.
Come on.
Hey.
Let's just say this went from Monroe to
the Helter Skelter.
Looks like the Manson family paid a visit.
Not a little, not a little.
It's in a bad spot.
Sharon Tate.
Natalie Wood was the one they killed on a
boat.
Excuse me.
Sharon Tate.
What the fuck is that?
Loretta.
From Loretta Dog Rescue.
Yeah, that's Loretta from Loretta Dog
Rescue.
Don't worry about her.
Despite the mess, I'll take care of
everything.

Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.

What?
The security guy, he's under there.
Don't weapon!
Hand me your hand!
Don't make me an ambulance.
Multiple bodies, stand back up now,
ma'am.
Step away from the weapon now!

Ow!
Wait a minute.
Are you...?

I cannot... Oh, for Pete's sake.
She's owed a phone call.
That's Sally Johnson here.
It's on the bed.
Here he comes.
Here he comes.
Here you go, ma'am.
I
Don't care what it costs.
I want her off the show.
She's become a real problem.
And some of these tourists she's been
telling, it's nuts.
She's lost her plot.
She's crazy.
I wasn't going to bring
this up like ever, but the
crew have been complaining
about her for years.
Yeah, you ever wonder why Stephen Mayer's
walked?
She's difficult, man.
Unemployable.
Look, it's America's dad.
Yeah, get the fuck out of here.
I'm going to call my lawyer.
I'm calling my lawyer.
I'm calling my lawyer.
I'm calling my lawyer.
Nope, nope.
I do it on the set.
