Revival (2025) s01e03 Episode Script

1
( industrial sounds )
Kay: Previously on Revival.
Pleasure to meet you.
I need time to detail findings
and observe them in their environment.
You want to help me?
Authorize their removal!
Man: Reviver tissue retains
pre-existing medical issues
at time of death.
Have you seen my mommy?
Dana: Em, isn't this
all kind of connected?
The drugs. I just saw your den of doom.
Did you hurt yourself?
- ( hard smack )
- Em: You're a reviver.
I prefer musician first.
Evening, governor.
Things have taken a turn here.
What the hell are you
doing here, Blaine?
What did she take?
Who gave it to her?
I know who killed Em.
( wind whistling )
( footsteps crunching )
- Em: Oh, shit.
- Kay: Chill.
Em, chill?
- ( mysterious score )
- uh-huh.
I just want the pills.
( wind chimes tinkling )
You're saying Em didn't o-d?
You think someone murdered her?
If she had just followed my lead
everything would've been fine.
Okay, talk to me about this
because this is a
mother-clucking masterpiece.
So, this one's dinner.
Mrs. Check has three series.
Breakfast, lunch, dinner.
The one you order
determines what else you get with it.
You catch my drift?
Yes!
This isn't that complicated.
Okay. Can I please use the bathroom?
Uh, yeah. Sure.
It's just upstairs around the corner.
Just be quiet up there.
Don't wake my baby.
- Em: Yes. ( groans )
- Yes.
Kay: You have a thing for cocks.
- What is that one?
- Oh, this one's a
Kay: While we're at the Checks' house,
she goes right upstairs.
While they're sleeping.
( man snoring )
( glasses rattle )
( score intensifies )
( crinkling ) ( man snores, snorts )
Uh, yeah! ( crash, banging upstairs )
- Man: Hey! What're you doing?
- Mrs. Check: Ah, jeez.
- Grab her!
- Kay: Oh my god, oh my god.
Mrs. Check: Everything okay?
Kay: I'm sorry. We got to just
Man: Get back here, you little shit!
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!
This is not being cool, Em!
This is the opposite of being cool!
( shotgun rattling )
( cocks shotgun )
( gunshot, ricochet pings)
( Em squeals )
( gunshot echoes )
And, now, because she
stole from the Checks
you think they killed her?
I didn't know Em was dead and a reviver
until I heard you guys
talking, but, yeah.
- Yeah, it all makes sense.
- No, it doesn't!
Em's had her issues but
she would never steal
from a drug dealer.
( sucks teeth ) sounds
like you don't know
your sister, lady.
( score intensifies )
( haunting ethereal theme )
( theme fades out ) (
water drops plopping )
( indistinct office chatter
) ( office phones ringing )
( tapping )
( police radio chatter )
There you go.
- Nice day for a manhunt, right?
- Mm.
I got a feeling we're
gonna find Arlene today.
Yeah. Oh, whatcha looking
up the Check brothers for?
Do you think they might
be hiding Arlene?
No, it's for another case.
- Well, must be a doozey.
- Mm.
Their rap sheets are as long
as McCray's rat tail. ( sighs )
Well, they have been pretty
quiet since revival day.
( keyboard clacking )
( chair wheels rumble )
My guess is 'cause big brother Anthony
hasn't been around to
tell them what to do.
Hm?
Where's he at then?
He left town when revival day happened
and can't get back in
because of quarantine.
Well, that's a blessing then, yeah?
Don't need any more ding dongs
making life difficult in Wausau.
There's another option.
He did something so
terrible on revival day
that he's been in hiding ever since.
- ( tense score )
- What kind of terrible?
Murdering someone that
stole from his family.
Oh, jeez. You think?
( score abates )
I don't know.
Oof. ( sighs ) I hope not.
Oh. ( laughs )
I got a new picture of my,
uh, new girlfriend.
Just kidding. It's a cat.
Yeah.
Boy 1: The real Jordan's dead.
She shouldn't be here.
I bet she doesn't even bleed.
My mom heard on a radio
show that revivers are demons.
- Maybe she is.
- Your mom needs
to turn off the radio.
( locker door clattering )
( students chatting, laughing )
I don't know if I'm supposed
to take them down or leave them.
I think they're nice.
Everyone was really sad when you died.
Then why aren't they
happy I'm alive again?
Boy 1: Watch this.
Hey, Jordan, show me your hand.
I want to see something.
( score intensifies )
Wait! Stop!
- ( loud bang )
- Aw!
Ah, god!
What the heck did you do that for?
You and your reviver
freak are going to pay!
( wind gusting ) (
footsteps approaching )
( wind chimes tinkling )
( distant dog barking ) ( knocking )
Come on in! Wipe your feet.
( door rattles; hinges creak ) Uh-oh.
Oh! Bless this mess.
Art lover. ( Check laughs )
Mrs. Check. Hi. Dana Cypress.
You probably don't remember me.
I went to Durant High with Andrew.
Oh. Uh ( sucks teeth )
Well, judging by that uniform you got on
you probably got better
grades than he did.
( laughs ) I'm just kidding.
So, you're in the market
for some folk art?
No. I'm here to investigate
a series of burglaries.
I was wondering if you could tell me
did this woman take anything from you,
or your home?
Oh, heavens to Betsy.
That is that sweet girl that
has a good eye for great art.
No, no, no, no. It was her pesky friend.
That girl who went
snooping around my house
and upset my boy.
- ( dramatic boom, rumble )
- This woman?
Oh Yeah, ma'am, that is the one.
You can tell she's got a black heart
by the look in her eye.
All right, well,
thank you for your time.
Oh, wait. Hang on a second here.
Don't I get nothing for helping you out?
Squid pro quo?
Seems fair. Yeah.
Let's do a breakfast chicken.
Okay. Which one?
Surprise me. ( Check gasps softly )
I got one downstairs I
think you're going to love.
- You just hang on.
- Can you please hurry?
( Dana sighs heavily )
( loud footsteps approaching )
Hm.
( tense score builds )
Huh.
Hey, Andrew. Long time.
( groans ) I haven't seen
you since you were voted
most likely to turn into
a lez at graduation.
What did you win again?
( sucks teeth )
Most likely to die in prison.
That was it.
Free gift. With purchase.
It's for your little boy.
( score intensifies )
The hero kills everyone
messing with their family.
Back off my family
or there's going to be
one more dead Cypress.
( heavy footsteps receding )
( door clatters ) ( door hinges squeak )
- ( door bangs shut )
- What do you think?
Oh, it's good, it's good.
I know. I know, it's great, isn't it?
( door bangs closed) ( heavy footsteps )
( distant dog barking )
( Dana sighs )
( crunching footsteps receding )
( dramatic score intensifies )
( score fades out )
I have no choice but to suspend him.
- for the rest of the week.
- What happened?
Why did you attack Noah?
He was going to hurt Jordan
to see if she would heal
because she's a reviver.
( distant students talking )
Excuse me, but where the hell were you?
Kids have the right
to be safe at school.
It's your job to make sure that happens.
You want to talk about safe?
When nobody, not the mayor,
not those CDC scientists,
not even your own father
can convince people
that they're safe from these revivers.
People are scared out
of their damn trees.
Oh, oh.
Of who?
Of this little, tiny,
little adorable girl?
You can call me when
she starts pulling out
her own teeth, but
until then calm your tits.
Dana, I am doing my best.
Your best sucks. Okay? Come on, Coop.
What about Jordan?
Called her parents an hour ago.
( tense score )
( bird calling ) ( indistinct arguing )
Woman: From there. People will talk!
Man: But you don't want her here, right?
Woman: Well, don't put this all on me!
You feel the same way.
( door slams inside )
Man: Now, come on!
Jordan: It's okay. They do that a lot.
- Want to go play in my room?
- Yeah.
( door clatters ) ( door hinges squeak )
( Dana sighs )
( door hinges squeak )
- ( tea splashing )
- We're not bad people, Dana.
- ( score fades )
- I never said you were.
We struggled mightily to have a child.
Scans, tests, procedures.
Doctor said it was never
going to happen for us.
But we prayed and we prayed
and then, like a miracle
sent from god, she came.
I knew every hair on her head,
every sigh when she slept.
You're talking about
her like she's dead,
but she's very much alive.
And she needs you now, more than ever.
That is not our daughter up there.
( soft tense score )
( soft footsteps approaching)
Can we have some cookies?
Mm-hm.
Thanks. ( footsteps receding )
She came back wrong.
And we've prayed over it,
but our Jordan,
the one god sent us,
is dead.
( stifled sobbing )
( score abates )
I think you've had it too good.
Because if your daughter had
been sick, or troubled
And you lived every day knowing
that you might lose
her and then you did.
And then, by some miracle,
she came back.
You'd fall to your
knees and weep with joy
instead of crying over what you'd lost.
And, okay, she might not
be what you wish she was,
but she's, she's worth
( scoffs ) She's worth loving.
I-I
I hope you can find your way to do that.
( chair clatters )
( phone ringing ) ( score fades out )
Please leave your message.
( voice mail beeps )
Hi, Em. It's, uh It's me.
I, I just
wanted to say I'm
thinking about you and
( shuddering inhale )
I really hope you're okay
and please call me back.
( smacking )
Can we go for milkshakes?
Milkshakes? Um
I'm going to drop you off
at Nella's for a bit.
I have has some stuff to
check out for work, okay?
Go sit. ( gear selector ratchets )
- ( tense score )
- Riparian zone.
Nine mile forest. ( clicking )
No anomalies in the
local flora or fauna.
Mineral composition of water
and soil samples are normal.
Compounds are unremarkable.
Still no viable hypothesis
on the cause of revival day.
( recorder clatters )
( long sigh ) ( hand slaps thigh )
( scraping ) ( score intensifies )
Finally got the toxicology
on our reviver brain specimen.
She is a person. Please use her name.
She used to be a person.
Now she is a reviver
who killed her own daughter
and is still at large.
( scoffs )
( score fades out )
( office phone ringing, chatter )
(loud sigh) Hello. You look lovely.
- Thank you
- And I have a hypothesis
about Arlene's psychosis
and I'd love to request
a police escort so that I
can go to the Dittman house
and investigate my theory further.
- Oh, wow.
- Yeah.
- Okey-dokey, doc.
- Okay.
Yeah, the only small
problemo is that, um,
well, with everyone out
searching for Arlene,
it's kind of slim pickings right now.
- Oh.
- Yeah. I could probably get you
McCray right there.
( police radio chatter )
Oh, well, what about Dana?
- What about Dana?
- Well
You'd prefer her company,
would you, mm-hm?
No, I just saw that her car was outside,
So I figured that she was available
- And that I
- You get me.
- Oh.
- I'll be your escort.
It's great.
Okay. Okay.
( tense score )
You're on a well system, correct?
Wayne, tell dr. Ramin
that whatever's he's looking for
he's not going to find it here.
Can I, uh, Check out your bathroom?
( clattering )
Uh, yeah.
Hey, Bob, why don't we
let the doctor do his work?
Why don't you get me
a cup of coffee, huh?
I'll get the grounds out
of your other freezer.
( locked door rattles )
( sniffs )
Oh. Oh.
( rattling ) ( door hinges squeak )
( score intensifies )
( dramatic boom echoes )
( score abates )
( score intensifies )
( dramatic boom, jangling )
( eerie score )
( dramatic rumbling )
( Arlene yells, cuts out )
What the hell do you think you're doing?
( ibrahim gasps, pants )
Ah!
( chuckles awkwardly )
Hey, I just, um
I was admiring the beautiful bay horse.
It's such a
Such a beautiful coat, sir.
She was my prize horse.
'til my reviver bitch
mother-in-law killed her
- With her bare hands.
- Hey, Bob. Whoa, whoa!
Whoa, whoa!
Calm down, all right?
Let's, uh, let's try to
keep it together, shall we?
Okay, I know you're
burying your wife today,
but, uh, we don't want
to add to the body count.
He was snooping.
The CDC has jurisdiction
in Wausau, so
Bob: You best be fixing that, Wayne.
Unless you want to be out
on your ass next election.
You almost done here, doc?
Yeah.
Good. Let's, uh,
let's get back to that coffee, huh, Bob.
Let's go back into the kitchen, Bob.
You, uh, you got any other weapons
that I don't know about?
( score fades out )
( distant siren wailing ) ( exhales )
( exhales ) ( deep nasal inhale )
Oh, da, shit.
( whispers ) Oh, shit.
( distant train horn )
Shoot. Oh. ( moans )
Oh, shh
( loud exhale )
( distant train bell clanging )
Hey, uh, sorry,
I didn't want to wake you.
You seemed like you
really needed the rest.
Uh, it's been a while since I've slept.
I don't sleep much.
The darkness weirds me out.
Kind of feels like I'm
reliving my death.
( sharp inhale )
( sighs )
Um
How'd you die if you, uh,
don't mind me asking.
Did you hear about the guy
that jumped into Sunny Vale lake
and didn't make it but still
rescued that little girl?
Holy shit. That was you?
- Yeah.
- Wow.
Nah. ( both laugh )
That's the story I want to tell.
The truth is
I stabbed myself through the palm
while coring an avocado
and because I was too punk
to go to the doctor it got
infected and killed me.
Oh ho. Ew.
This is supposed to be a safe space!
I'm sorry, it's just
for someone so cool,
to have died in such a lame way.
( chuckles ) Seven days of antibiotics
and I would've been fine, but instead.
- Oh-ho!
- Yeah.
Okay, quick, tell me how you died
and make it sound as dumb as possible!
( quiet, tense score )
You don't have to.
( whispers ) Uh
My sister and my ex think I, uh
Think I did it to myself.
I don't think I did, but
I was on the bridge and I was
High.
And I woke up in bull falls, so
What if I did?
What if
What if I did jump?
( sheets rustling )
( score intensifies )
Lots of people jump for lots of reasons.
It doesn't make you weak,
or selfish, or a bad person.
Wait, your
You got your avocado
wound before you died.
If I had jumped,
all my bones would have
broken before I drowned,
or whatever happened to me.
But when I woke up,
my bones weren't broken.
- So you didn't fall.
- And I didn't jump.
Okay. Um
What else do you remember
about that night?
You know, you don't have to do this
and, besides, don't you have, like,
a band rehearsal to get ready for?
I have time.
We, we have time.
I want to help you with this.
Help you figure out what happened.
If that's something you want.
( he clears throat ) ( tender score )
( book pages rustling )
( urgent score )
What do all these mean?
I don't know.
( echoing boom ) ( crinkling )
Some are fuzzy,
some are clear.
I-I ( soft echoing boom )
I-I-I close my eyes and
really try to focus,
but then they just drift
away and I don't even know
if they're all from the same place.
What I do know is I was on the bridge
and something bad happened.
( score intensifies )
( water burbling )
( bird cawing )
( score fades out )
( church bells ringing )
Terry was a true-to-life angel.
She even took in her sick mother,
even when it was a
burden on our marriage.
Even when it made her unable
to take care of my needs,
like a wife ought to.
( quiet tense score )
My Terry ( door opens )
put so much light in the world.
- Woman: Terry.
- She was a god-fearing woman
who loved her family, her friends
and her dear horse, Sebastian.
She didn't deserve to be
taken away from me like that.
( Arlene screams )
( mourners panicking )
Everybody out!
Arlene, stop!
- My life.
- Bob!
- Devil woman.
- Wayne: Get out of the way!
Bob! Get down! ( Arlene growls )
( crunch, squelch ) ( Bob groans )
( four gunshots ) ( body thuds )
( Arlene squeaks ) ( dramatic score )
( lid creaks )
Blaine? What the hell are you doing?
- They carry our prayers
- Wayne: Blaine!
- Up to god's throne
- Stop there!
And lay hands on the beast.
And through my anointed
hand I condemn you.
Arlene: Oh, my Terry. ( sobs )
Blaine: Into the lake of fire
by your holy soldier, oh, lord.
Arlene: Terry.
( sobbing, wailing )
( flames crackling )
( score intensifies )
( flames roaring, crackling )
( female choir vocalizing dramatically )
( score fades out )
It's going to take us a
while to separate the bodies,
but we will make sure that Arlene's body
is held in a secure room.
Why? You think she's
going to recover from this?
I thought she was burned to a crisp?
Cremains are already healing, sir.
Slowly, but nonetheless.
I knew it was too good to be true.
Jesus!
( office phone ringing faintly )
Where's dr. Ramin? ( loud rattling )
He said he had an errand
to run this morning.
Blaine Abel's in lockup.
What are we charging him with?
Public endangerment for lighting a fire
but it's not going to stick.
You got to keep that guy
locked up as a matter of public safety.
You hear what he's
saying on his radio show?
Yeah. That he was protecting
the public from Arlene.
That's what he and
everybody else will say.
And, you know, he's not wrong.
He did stop her.
I couldn't.
( mayor sighs ) ( door clanks loudly )
( dramatic urgent score)
( indistinct chatter )
Woman: Sheriff's office.
You've got a big gosh-darn mess
and no plans to clean it up.
With all due respect, governor,
the reason I called you is
because there is a plan.
My plan. But I cannot execute it
because I'm being drowned in red tape
by the CDC and the mayor.
Oh, going over my head now, Wayne.
It's a new low for you.
Governor, I think we can all agree that
stripping the rights of our
citizens is simply not
What, not what?
For a violent zombie invasion?
No, that's not the right
thing to do, is it?
- Jesus christ, Wayne!
- Language!
I am barely holding back
an angry mob of zealots
screaming for vigilante justice.
I need support. ( knocking at door )
- Yes? Come in.
- Ah, governor. Sheriff.
Uh, I'm, uh, dr. Ibrahim Ramin.
I, uh, found traces of mercury
in Arlene Stankiewicz's brain matter.
At first I thought it was
from the drinking water
at the Dittman home,
but then I found this.
I believe that after Arlene
moved into the homestead,
mr. Dittman began poisoning
her with mercuric chloride,
which triggered her psychosis and,
uh, her violent events.
He got fed up with Terry
taking care of Arlene over him
so he killed his own mother-in-law?
When did you come up with this, anyway,
'cause I was with you
at the Dittman house.
My first time hearing it.
I'm simply trying to prove
my hypothesis, governor,
that revivers aren't inherently violent.
You got any real science
behind that, doctor?
Because all I'm hearing
are half-baked theories
and wild accusations against a man
who can no longer defend himself.
Oh, you're so hell-bent on your camp
you can't even see the truth!
This camp can't happen.
It can't happen, governor.
These are people.
They need to be protected.
We cut the top of her head off,
we baked her to a crisp
and she's still kicking!
- That sound like a person to you?
- Name one time in human history
where camps have been better
instead of horrifically worse.
All right, all right. Sit down.
Golly, I am choking on all
the testosterone in here.
( governor sighs )
Sheriff, considering
she wasn't even on your
little reviver registry,
sounds to me like you've
got a tracking problem.
So how about we start there?
( score fades out )
Figure out who really is
and isn't a dead citizen.
Or whatever.
Go door-to-door if you have to.
( dramatic score )
But you've the authority to smoke out
every reviver in Wausau so
we can tag and monitor them
and avoid ourselves
another Arlene situation.
Uh, so we're marking them now?
I'm sorry. Are we serious about this?
- Governor, no, you can't
- Tag 'Em and track 'Em.
It works during shark
week and it'll work here.
And to your point, sheriff,
if any revivers show signs
of aggression or violence,
you have my authority to remove
them to a secure location
of your choosing.
Oh, wow.
You just legalized
internment camps, governor.
I wouldn't use that term.
But big, bold moves
will settle tempers and
fears in this town.
Once people are feeling safe again
and we have no more violent outbursts,
we can talk about lifting measures.
Gentlemen.
Okay.
( door rattles )
You happy now, Wayne?
Locking up the citizens
you're supposed to protect.
( door slams ) ( score intensifies )
( blues music plays faintly ) ( clink )
Nella, thank you so
much for watching Cooper.
Ah, you're welcome.
I like the company before we open.
What the hell happened here with Em?
Your sister seemed fine.
And then, all of a sudden,
she started headbutting Clarice.
Well, the top of the head is
the hardest bone in the body,
so it's kind of her only move.
( clears throat )
Did she come here with anyone,
or talk to anyone while she was here?
No, no. She was alone.
( distant dishes clanking )
I mean, she seemed a
little down in the dumps,
but nothing out of the ordinary.
Before I knew it,
Em had hightailed it outta here.
By herself?
Uh, she left with some punk.
Do you mean like a shitty dude?
No, I mean a literal punk.
I think he was in a band.
( paper crinkling )
Goddamn it! Told her, no musicians.
( Nella chuckles )
Maybe it's genetic.
I hope not. ( Nella chuckles )
( muffled loud thumping bass music )
( loud music )
( male singer singing )
Punk guy: Em!
Cool. Cool look.
Oh, thanks.
You okay?
Yeah, I've just never been
to something like this before.
A punk show?
No concerts, no clubs.
I've had to avoid any situation
where I could break an arm,
or something.
Well, you're different now.
Billy Idol once said punk never dies
and you literally can't, so
( song intensifies )
( indistinct conversation )
Andrew: Look who's here.
And with all these
stupid games we play
( loud punk song )
and all the rules we need to play them
I forged a blade for those very rules
and another one to slay them
so keep on talking
with your crooked smile
and your pathetic search for worth
'cause in the desert of my discontent
there's a river of blood
stop it, clench your fist
( primal scream )
( groaning, grunting in pain )
( squelching )
( shocked audience reactions )
( squelching )
( cheering, whistles of approval )
( screaming )
( Em yells )
The bloodthirsty vultures
form circles around my grave.
( punk guy yelling incomprehensibly )
Holy shit.
Look at what we got here.
Stop.
Hey, that guy's messing with my girl!
Get him off her!
( grunts, groans )
Adam, get her!
- Punk guy: Em!
- Adam: Move!
- Punk guy: Em, come on.
- Hey, Adam!
You're a dead woman, Em Cypress!
- Dana?
- Stop! Police!
- Get out back.
- Okay.
- ( taser zapping )
- ah!
( loud thud ) ( loud grunt )
No. No no no.
( handcuffs rattling ) get off.
( crinkling ) ( Adam groans )
( Dana exhales )
Surprise, surprise. ( Adam groans )
Dana: Up we go.
You're going to regret this, Cypress.
I've read your brother's rap sheet.
This is his third strike.
Looks like he's most
likely to die in prison.
Come on.
( dramatic tense score )
You want to join him?
( crinkling )
( both panting )
( score fades out )
Do you think those
are the guys who?
Killed me? ( distant owl hooting )
( tender score )
( soft smack )
We are in the middle of the road.
We should probably
Yeah. Yeah. ( chuckles )
( score intensifies )
You just signed your own ticket, lady.
I know my rights.
You can't tase me without cause.
You can't search me without a warrant.
You verbally threatened
a concert-goer.
And when I searched you I
was looking for weapons
for my own safety.
And it's just dumb luck that
I found a boatload of drugs
that'll keep you in
prison for 25-to-life,
so tell me again whose
ticket got signed?
My brother's not going
to stand for this!
Good. It's what I'm counting on.
Oh! ( loud slam )
( clanging ) ( sharp sigh )
( clattering ) Hey!
You can't search my
phone without a warrant.
I don't care what's on your phone.
Want you to call your brother.
( scoffs ) Why don't you call him?
And put it on speakerphone
while you're at it
'cause I'm really gonna
enjoy listening to Andrew
tell you and your whole stupid family
how dead meat you are.
You're not calling Andrew.
You're calling Anthony.
( score abates )
Big brother Anthony.
The brains of the operation.
Right? ( Adam scoffs through nose )
'cause if you and Andrew
are going to start a war
with my family you're going
to need his approval.
So there you go.
( soft tense score )
( mirthless laugh ) uh,
I'm not calling Tony.
He's busy. ( clears throat )
In New York.
Is that it? Or is it
because you're scared?
'cause he's going to lose
his mind when he finds out
you've been arrested. My guess is that
he told you two losers to lay low
while he was stuck outside
the quarantine zone
and, well, here we are.
You call Anthony
and maybe
all of this goes away.
( metal clatters )
( spluttering )
What do you mean?
No, no. I'm willing to
make a deal with Anthony.
Not with you.
( sighs ) ( shackles clanking )
Come on.
Don't forget to put it on speaker.
( whimpers softly )
( chair clattering loudly )
( line ringing )
( loud bang )
( louder ringing ) ( click )
- What do you want, grunt?
- Dana: Anthony,
This is deputy Dana Cypress,
Mountain Bay county
sheriff's department.
I am here with Adam.
Your brother has two felony convictions
already on his record and
I just got him on a third.
I can't help but think
of your poor mother.
But I am willing to release Adam.
Without charges.
I'm willing to give you back
the oxy my sister stole.
But I want a truce.
The Checks stay away from the Cypresses
and vice versa.
Squid pro quo.
Take the deal, bro. Come on.
Anthony, you have no leverage.
I have your brother,
I know your operation
and I know you killed my sister,
you dirty shits!
Wait.
Your sister's a reviver?
- Oh, you didn't know?
- Of course I didn't know!
Bullshit. You and your
dirty brothers killed her.
We didn't even know who
she was before tonight.
At your house, your brother said
there is going to be more
than one dead Cypress!
Um, he was probably
talking about your mom
'cause she died in that car crash,
or whatever.
- He's an asshole like that!
- Enough!
I'll take the deal. Cut Adam loose.
Tell me my family's safe.
Stay out of our business,
then no brother or
associate of mine will move
against your family.
I want your word.
Cross my heart and hope to die.
( soft sigh )
( sighs )
Come on.
( sighs loudly )
( soft tense score )
Huh.
( intriguing score intensifies )
( score crescendos, fades out )
( faint rustling )
( soft tender score )
Coop, I'm home.
Did you lock up all the bad guys?
Yeah, I sure did, buddy.
( phone buzzes )
( score intensifies )
( loud sigh )
( Dana inhales shakily )
Em: Is this romantic?
( punk guy laughs )
Shit, sorry, do I need to be careful
hugging you, or
I'm not that fragile.
I just didn't get a lot
of hugs growing up.
( Em laughs softly through nose )
I still got a lot of love
growing up it's just
With this condition,
everyone looked at me different.
Kind of treated me like
something waiting to break.
Or like they were scared to touch me.
That must have been tough.
It is. It it was. Um,
Luckily, as I'm getting older,
it's getting better
And the fractures and breaks happen
a lot less frequently, but,
as a kid, that was different.
Just because you broke a lot,
doesn't mean you're broken.
Well, I broke. A lot.
Mm-hm.
This is from my fourth rodding surgery.
They couldn't fix the fracture
so they had to put a plate
in my shin.
Oh. ( Em inhales, exhales loudly )
I've got pins and screws
and plates all over my body.
Touch it if you want. It's gross.
( he laughs softly )
Ew. ( both laugh )
Bet it's a nightmare
at airport security.
I wouldn't know. ( sighs )
You've never been on a plane?
If only we could fly
somewhere right now.
As soon as we can get out of here
I'll take you wherever you want to go.
I've never been to the beach.
Can we go to the beach, or is that lame?
That's really lame.
I'm kidding. It can't
be lame if you've
It can't be lame if you've
experienced something
that 99.9%
of the rest of the world
will never get to.
Dying and coming back to life.
And healing.
That feeling when your
flesh and bones break.
And regenerate at warp speed.
It's like lightning rippling
through my entire body.
The irony is,
at least for me, is that
( short, sharp exhale )
I had to die to feel alive.
Will you do something with me?
( score intensifies )
What?
You want to jump?
Are you crazy? No!
Live a little.
( whoosh )
Rhodey?
( loud splash ) ( yelling )
Rhodey?!
( dramatic pulsating score )
Rhodey!!
- ( water sloshing )
- Rhodey: Whoo!
( Rhodey laughs ) ( score intensifies )
Feels amazing! ( Em laughs )
You gotta try it, Em! Come on!
Jump! I got you!
Come on! I believe in you!
( Em exhales )
Just live a little.
( dramatic rumbling whoosh )
( distant echoing yell )
( ethereal score )
( score intensifies, turns darker )
( dramatic boom, rumbling )
Stand up. Come on.
( score abates )
You're free to go, mr. Abel.
( handcuffs clanking )
Just, uh, know I'll be watching you.
Okay.
Hey, you know that you and I
want the same thing, right?
You'll discover that eventually.
You and I, Blaine,
will never want the same thing.
Might want to think about that.
( indistinct announcement over pa)
( indistinct conversations )
Gentlemen.
Oh. I appreciate you all coming here.
( score intensifies )
So
Who's ready for a holy war?
Followers: Yeah!!
Yeah.
