The Miniature Wife (2026) s01e04 Episode Script

In previous episodes
There is a lock on the door.
You can visit the dollhouse.
Lace has reduced everything.
Type of fabric.
I didn't write this story. It was written by a student.
Can you handle this mess?
We have 28 days
or it's definitely related to labs or technology.
You know I'll understand this
and change the world, so come with me.
Was that a cat?
I would consider canceling some protocols.
You say five minutes. — No.
- Two. - One. Maybe later.
Done.
Just a few more days.
Eight packs of economical toilet paper?
A few days, yes, of course, and then no.
Lulu, you are here.
Cyclone Lindi is moving northeast.
- No. - What category does it belong to?
Don't say that.
I will be human-made popcorn.
How long will you correct me?
I don't know.
Richie!
And now, to give his farewell speech,
The student with the best average score of this generation, Lewis Littlejohn.
Seven months ago
This is my daughter.
And the best average is nothing special.
This place
It's dead to me.
This is my daughter!
Richie?
Oh God. Oh, no, no, no
I can't believe it. I just
Oh, damn. Wait, have you grown small?
Correctly.
I have many questions.
And I have the answers.
Oh, what a relief! And what a thrill!
Yes, me too! Oops! What was that?
- Oh, you'll get used to it. - It was very noisy.
- Is this lace? - Is this lace?
- Yes. Come here. - What?
How wonderful. Okay. You have to hide.
- What? Where? - Inside the closet.
Oh, so he says, "Don't come in. Never."
Don't worry. Everything is fine. Hurry up, hurry up.
And it smells really bad inside here. That's outside.
Okay.
Good morning.
- Good morning. - How about we chat over coffee?
Yes. Of course.
And.
Is this necessary?
I just want you to be safe. Anything can happen.
Okay. Stop talking about these things.
Stop. It was a 'danger signal' reaction.
My response when I got the 'green light' was: Thank you for your interest.
And my own "green" response is:
I know the situation is not favorable.
And I am really very sorry.
Red lipstick
and toothpaste.
Hmm
I will help you as soon as possible.
But I bought a travel pack, so it's smaller in size.
Hilton has some new rules,
But I will find a solution.
Thank you.
Oh, and speaking of Lulu,
I've been thinking a lot about what you said last night.
And I will talk to him.
About the accident and about me?
Or Hurricane Lindy.
It is also inappropriate and offensive.
Well, I appreciate that. Thank you.
About you and the accident
I think our current situation will hurt him.
And unfortunately, I can blame you,
If not treated properly
So, I would suggest
To open the wedding toolbox
Dr. Carmichael and I use the URF tool.
Do you agree?
Yes, but on one condition.
Oh, I am open and present.
We will emphasize the definition of a united guardian front,
Without any secret agreement on the side
It only happened once.
I apologized and learned a lesson.
Good.
It's beautiful, isn't it?
And.
Except for the small but obvious issue of being indoors. Yes.
You are right.
And I swear, I didn't forget the computer, actually
New investors, new rules.
- Yes. - I understand. No problem.
Goodbye!
Okay. Okay.
Has he left?
Wait.
I
Okay. He's gone.
Don't go there.
We have cameras, but we have time.
It takes him some time to look at them.
Shall we go?
I should change my clothes.
How did you get here?
I will show you.
Richie!
Oops, I'm crying. Hidden stairs?
Did you make this?
You know, I also have an engineering degree.
Of course you do.
Follow me.
Freedom!
Oh, you're a genius, Richie.
Actually, yes, I did, but there are many others.
Anything else? But that's what I like!
What?
What is this?
To get where we're going faster,
- I brought Desdemona. - Where will Desdemona take us?
All the way.
You have thought of everything.
And I brought everything.
Really;
Absolutely everything.
How have you handled the new rules and regulations?
I don't know. Maybe I'm a bad boy.
Yes, maybe you are.
Come on, Desdemona. A little faster.
I had a divine revelation in my dream last night.
I woke up in the middle of the night,
And someone pointed a gun at me.
The attacker asked me a question and I had to answer it correctly.
Otherwise he would have shot.
And the question was:
How will you and I pass this 30 seconds?
In fragmentation?
Insulation.
Insulation;
Isolation, Janet.
My name is Janet.
That's what I said too.
Oh. Yes, Janet.
Now that I think about it where is Richard?
He was granted a short-term leave to care for a loved one.
I don't understand what it means.
He is not here today, he will not be here tomorrow.
He is absent indefinitely.
Until his loved one recovers.
Can he do it?
According to the protocol manual, it is possible to do this.
Who is this loved one?
Company policy
It is prohibited to disclose this information.
I won't accept this. I need Richard.
I can be your new Richard. Temporarily.
From the beginning.
Where did I put that, Richard I mean, Janet?
Insulation.
And.
If we look at the equation as a chain,
We can assume that a faulty connection
May cause growth instability.
So we need to find this faulty connection,
Isolate it, we'll get out of there.
According to the principle of least action,
Let's replace epsilon with delta.
and the partial derivative of T with respect to D.
And maybe we shouldn't use H with hats,
Let's try it with four, pi, epsilon, zero.
Try five, pi, epsilon, zero.
No, no, no, seven.
Well, you know what? Let's make it a hundred!
Well, now you've got my attention.
Let me introduce myself.
I am your new boss, Hilton Smith.
You must know me from life, I do a lot of things.
Listen.
I have one question for each of you.
Who is hungry?
Yes. Yes. I saw you. I saw you. Yes. Yes. There.
This guy seems intelligent.
Hilton, it's good to see you.
Lunch break after half an hour.
Oh. Yeah, but I ordered a hamburger from California.
It will be completely fine in half an hour.
Nobody likes a cold hamburger.
In my workshop we work against time,
As shown on the clock, every millisecond is valuable.
Of the Day of Judgment, which controls us from above.
This is not a watch.
It's me.
That controls everything I own.
This lab, you, these people,
Every moment is mine.
That's how I decide what to do with them.
And now it's dinner time.
Okay.
We will take a break now.
And come back 10 minutes early. Okay?
Excellent.
Did you hear that? Let's go.
Come on! It's lunch time. Let's go.
Science, science!
You have to feed yourself.
To get science into your mind.
Oh, listen, Wonder Les, I have a special sauce for you.
Recommend
Eat every bite of your hamburger.
Come on, science! Come on, science!
Come on, science! Come on, science!
Lulu?
Crown.
I will stop.
Hello. How are you?
Do they still let you work there?
Oh, yeah. New management came in, and now I'm not stealing like I used to, so
- Oh, well. - I mean, I steal a little.
But I have to keep my job.
Now I am studying at university.
Are you going to college?
Don't be so surprised.
Sorry, I'm not
No, it's okay. I'm going to Forest Park.
It's high school and
Oh yes. Nice.
And what are you studying?
Psychology. Helping people solve their problems.
Will you start with yours?
How is this?
Okay. I passed the final exam.
You know, it looks very strange to see you.
My mother recently asked me about you.
I always liked you, you know?
And.
So, what did he say?
You know, he just asked why we stopped going out.
Oh. And what did you tell him?
You have become a scoundrel.
How funny.
I wasn't kidding.
Okay. Yeah, I get it. Okay. You were compatible. I wasn't.
I think you didn't want to join.
I think you wanted to be a badass.
Simple and basic concepts of psychology.
I'm just saying that I remember how you used to be.
Before?
Before deciding to leave here.
We laughed
a lot.
Mr. Jones.
Mrs. Spence.
- Okay. Well, that was good - What are you doing tonight?
I know the janitor at Crabby Pat's.
We don't need an ID card.
Okay, who's going?
Oh, you ignored all those things in high school.
I will feel comfortable. I think I will miss it.
He met my university friends.
They don't know you, start from the beginning.
Can you, you know, have some fun?
Or am I sick?
Yes, but you don't like it?
You know me.
It's nice to see you smiling.
Satirically.
Sure. Yes. I'll send you a message. Hi.
Did you go inside?
Oh.
What are these?
I re-arranged our first unforgettable date.
University Bistro,
Campus square, snow.
You said that was the place where you were happiest.
Excuse me, what's going on here?
Oops! I forgot one thing.
Richie, how did you get into the house?
Oh, I watched a video on YouTube about how to open a lock.
Everything can be learned on YouTube.
Honestly, anything.
Oops, that's it. That's it. Calm down.
Okay.
It was a good idea.
Run! Run!
Oh, no. Damn it!
Damn it! It's a bug. No, no, no! Close the door.
Close the door.
Yes, yes. Yes, yes. Let's go. I know.
Meet Jackie Baldwin.
Hello. Sit down.
Mrs. Leland, the flight was heavenly.
Oh, do you have any experience with what first grade is like?
Mrs. Leland
Oh, Terry.
Oops, I'm sweating. Mrs. Leland, are you?
Sorry. Can you pinch me so I know I'm not dreaming?
This is madness.
Just pinch it lightly.
See, Jackie?
It's real, I'm real.
The multi-million dollar contract I'm offering you is completely real.
Oh my God. What Professor Littlejohn did to me
I brought it for you
Excellent;
Mrs. Leland, I don't know how
I will thank you.
Oh, I should be the one thanking you for sending this.
Lindy is a unique and incomparable writer.
A voice that cuts through the noise.
An editor only meets someone like him once in their lifetime, even if they're lucky.
And I'm talking to someone else here.
And you will do it, with just one signature.
Add your name to my publishing company.
Tremendous success.
Oh, sorry.
You know, Terry,
Maybe I should ask my lawyer to look into the matter.
Do you have a lawyer?
It's nearby.
How close? Because I have to get back to work.
He is running on the treadmill.
Oh, there's definitely a minute for the unique.
And an incomparable writer.
You learn very quickly.
This is Hell. It's the same as the word 'hell' in English.
Did you get my message? - Of course I did.
Terry, meet Hale.
I am his lawyer
and his cousin.
On the other knee.
Oh, you can take a look at your phone.
Lindy Littlejohn is back with a new story.
Oh, I understand.
It seems we both got a Google notification.
For Professor Littlejohn.
Okay, here you go.
A secret confidentiality agreement.
It's good that I know where to look.
We are not that stupid.
Excuse me. I have to go to the bathroom. I won't be late.
Escape strategy.
Elevator or stairs?
Lift.
Was the day difficult?
It helps to overcome
a difficult moment.
Come on.
No. You didn't understand what I meant.
Surprise me. - This is absurd.
This is my lab! I am the chief scientist.
Follow me.
Executive Director's Toilet
Is this?
Is this allowed? No.
Does Hilton know? No.
So the truth is, everyone has secrets.
And now we have it too. But
In the name of science.
He looks very happy.
Is this your scientific assessment?
Yes. Observation is the key.
So, comments aside, how are you?
Physical symptoms are strong, good appetite, clear body fluids.
- A sturdy chair. - What more could you ask for?
An increase in speed is also observed.
And more sensitive hearing.
It's funny. But isn't it harmful?
Just the opposite.
It's safe to say that he's happy, as you've noticed.
Don't waste energy on trivial matters like Hilton.
See him as a father who maintains control and who has a purpose.
For the "I'm pulling my finger" type of joke.
Nothing satisfies him, he can only satisfy himself.
They told me that
The fatherly characters of the controller impress me.
A scientist who went for treatment.
Now that we're on a personal note
I have no problem admitting that I went through therapy.
Couples therapy.
This is it.
You are amazing.
The surprising thing is
Well, I have a personal question:
How was it?
Okay. I will answer.
It is ongoing.
I can say that it is complicated.
You have no idea, Vivienne.
You say you called me by my name.
You called me as if
That is
Do it.
Is this a replica of Union Station on Market Street?
- Richard? - Hmm?
- What's the plan? - I'll handle it.
Okay.
You've had a phone all this time. Okay.
Because I asked for help, and you brought me a piece of cake.
But we have phones. Okay. So
- That's the plan. - Tell me.
I, Richard Paul Ware, have voluntarily offered myself.
In the name of love, your natural size and your honesty
Destruction.
according to the greatest love story of all time.
You will write us the story that will inspire lovers.
Generation.
And you will win your second Pulitzer.
And then we'll live here, in a doll's house,
We will be small,
But only in form, not in spirit or heart.
And they began to live happily ever after.
That's the plan, right?
Yes, that's the plan.
So, you Actually, I'm just a
But what is the reason for the contraction
and you have no plans
How can we be made old again?
- Richard. - Well, I think
You have no plans. Did I understand correctly?
- No, it's not. - Oh my God.
No, no, no, no.
Why did I think you would have an answer?
I thought you were going to save me. I can't believe it.
No, no, no, no, no, no. Les and Tim
At some point a clue will be found.
It's very close.
No, no, no.
And when they solve it, we will be able to choose.
Small body, big love. Big body, big love.
What? You think I'll choose this?
Oh, it's dead. I should have brought a charger.
But instead I brought cake.
Because you said it was your favorite.
I'm leaving, or I'll kill you.
Your sister-in-law is under your neck.
What? Wait, should I follow you?
No. The train has left the station. Okay?
I will catch the next train. I will catch
No! It's over, Richard.
- Okay. - And transportation arrangements. Okay?
Okay.
Don't you dare quote Shakespeare again.
Lindy?
Fifteen years of silence. No.
It wasn't fifteen years of silence, but
Fifteen years of silence
And now that I'm making my dream come true,
Your publishing house, your publishing house,
Terry Leland Publishing,
Simple, elegant, respectful,
It melts through the gap in my hand.
But does he care? No.
Does he want more from me? Yes.
Are we still friends?
I don't know.
You are helping him.
And who helps you?
Yes.
Transactional relationships are
Unstable.
And lonely.
You are a good person.
I know at least 30 people who would disagree with that.
Multiple opinions do not prove anything to be true.
You are very wise.
I am really interested in you.
And I like you
like.
May I know if you are married?
You can.
Oh.
Are you married?
A little.
And he? Or him?
- He. - He, he. Is he?
Alive? In a sense.
Oh. Let's say he's alive.
Isn't the idea of ​​a 'living' dual system inherent in its very nature?
A living creature is considered alive.
If it exhibits certain characteristics
Which distinguishes it from inanimate matter.
Somehow, my husband doesn't understand the difference.
- From inanimate matter. - May I ask if he?
No, that's enough, but it was nice to share it with you.
Oh, no.
What is this?
I think Mr. Magoo is in some kind of crisis.
Attack? What?
You might die. Okay, I can't lose him.
Will I lose him?
- Sorry, of course he is. - Is he okay?
Yes, I love that cat very much.
Okay.
It's already over.
His pulse returned to normal.
Okay. My heart is beating fast.
Your pulse rate is too high.
And your wrists sweat a lot.
I Nothing can happen to this cat, okay?
Mr. Magoo is fine. I'm worried about you.
Thank you for your interest. But
I have to go.
Sorry.
Let's go, let's go. Where is that?
Please tell me, where is it? Where is it? Where is it?
Where is he? Let's go.
I am completely alone.
I am here.
I was looking for you.
Why?
I wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your speech.
Professor, what are your comments?
Nothing. It was an effective use of words.
Yes. Of course. Without a doubt.
It has been legalized again.
Look, I know you didn't want to do anything for your graduation,
But I thought that you and I
We can go get a smoothie at Mantis.
I am not ten years old anymore.
Yeah, I know. I just thought it would be, I mean
nostalgic;
Yes, you understand me. I am very pathetic, but
It's just ice cream. What do you think?
Well, I can't. I'm leaving.
You;
By fax.
It's June. There are still a few months left before university starts.
Didn't Dad tell you?
He arranged an internship for me as an observer or something like that.
Um, no.
- No, Dad didn't tell me. - What didn't Dad tell me?
Lulu's plans for the summer.
Didn't I tell you?
No.
It was a last minute matter.
I think I told you. Sorry.
Where are you going?
Didn't I tell you?
You are the second person I saw today
Milkshake forgot his sorrow.
Oh, is that right?
Was she some other mother?
That was me.
What else makes you so sad?
I could ask you the same question, but I have read your book.
And I say this with all due respect, and a bit of childishness.
- Do I know you? - No. I mean, I don't know you.
I know you and I admire you.
I work in the lab with your husband.
Oh, great.
Loss.
And.
Did you know?
That would be negligence on my part.
If I hadn't taken this opportunity
I want to let you know how much I appreciate your novel and how much I enjoyed it.
But no, honestly, your ability to understand weight,
Understanding a complex emotional relationship
Mothers, not only with their daughters,
But also with yourself, okay?
This is a wonderful creation.
It is a masterpiece of dimension and despair.
And if it had been written by someone less qualified,
It can be caricature or scary,
But I was I am.
You know, this is beyond all limits, I am so impressed with my daughter's abilities.
Succeeding despite difficult emotional situations
Where he grew up.
It's a hero's journey through a humorous cry for help.
I just wanted to hug my daughter.
I know that's a simplification, but it's true.
I need a hug.
Maybe I'm overstepping my bounds,
But I would be happy to give it to you.
Okay.
Is this okay?
Dot.
Your mother has arrived.
Yes, okay. Thanks, Barb.
I have to go.
Okay.
He doesn't like driving at night.
But the sun is there. It will set.
I am alone.
We are all alone.
No, no!
What are you doing? I'm going home.
Why? Because of that fight over the hamburger?
I'm the sheriff in my lab, okay?
Lightning and thunder! What don't you understand?
Well, listen, there's a new boss in town.
He's also a competitor, but he has money.
Well. Anyway, he started it.
What a turn! - I have to go home, Martin.
Okay. You know what? Hi, hi.
Hilton hasn't left yet. This doesn't look good.
Oh, so be it.
You are insulting him and me!
Let's all be victims.
Okay, you're creating your own obstacles.
Tell him it was a family emergency.
What? Really?
- Someone might have died. - What? Who are you talking about?
- About someone! - Who? What?
To someone.
Do we like it?
Maybe.
Okay. But shouldn't we put a little more pressure on him?
You know, I can give a presentation
to see what happens in the end.
Not yet. He's not useless.
Okay. The decision is yours.
Until it becomes useless.
We could not agree on this.
Like the brains and soldiers of the battlefield,
The final decision on how you want to talk about me is mine.
In terms of talent
Talent.
Naturally.
"Type".
You can't handle yourself, can you?
You can't either.
Type.
No.
Type.
I said no.
What? I'm not touching you.
Oh, you're leaving? Are you? Well. What a boy.
Oh God. Not now, Nils.
This is not the time to ask questions.
I don't have time to look at the comments. Thank you.
No problem.
I am chasing something bigger.
Oh, is that right? Bigger than me? This story is me.
Not anymore.
What?
Okay. I have to go.
We're not leaving. We're here. Look, we're in the door.
It will be fun. It will be great.
You said you would come soon. What happened?
This is a past event. Use the watch.
How are you doing?
Mike, this is my friend Lulu. We've known each other for a long time.
Lulu, Mike.
Book.
Look for me when you get a break. Okay?
Everything is for you, boss.
Tremendous success.
Personal;
What? - Stuff!
Yes. I
I was just kidding. You look 21. Come in.
- Great, right? - I hate it.
I will save myself.
Come here, you bastard!
This is not goodbye, Space Corps.
It's over.
Have a good trip.
For me! This is for me! Merry Christmas!
I can't believe they did this.
He threw the microphone!
That's what you did at graduation, right?
What? Did you drop the microphone?
- I threw the microphone. - Yes. That was me.
My grandmother didn't like your speech at all.
I hate my grandma too, so thank you.
Yes, I told you, those were the fools. The girl with the microphone.
You are an absolute genius, girl! Yes!
See? Nobody cares. Pretty funny, right?
Naturally.
Are you going to Forest Park?
No. Are you kidding?
I was just asking.
Oh, he studies in Manhattan.
Oh. Did you know his mother wrote?
Does my rainbow start with black?
Is this your mother?
We read this in class.
Your mother's childhood. Family dinner. Wow!
The topic was called suicidal fantasies.
And we know it's fiction.
There is a lot of truth in fiction.
Could your mother show you any affection?
What kind of question is this?
How sensitive! It's natural.
Hello, microphone. Hello!
What? Drinks? Hey, what are these!
No. - Drink.
- Lulu. Lulu. No. - Let's go.
Please no. Okay.
- No, that's not right. - That's right.
Let's go grab the microphone and go have a drink.
Book.
You look
- Dirty. - I meant strong.
You brought my phone. I was surprised by that.
Is that right? I was hoping it would work.
I will drive.
What are you going to do? What are you going to do? Wait, wait. Are we leaving?
Yes. We'll go back and loot the place.
Where are we going?
Towards sunset, Richie. A new day begins.
I miss you. What are you saying?
Hey, you should drink some water.
Water is a fool. It fills the lakes.
Okay.
Was your mother capable of showing you any kind of true affection?
What a joke! He's drunk.
Steph, I'm leaving. See you after the New Year.
Okay.
What a mess!
Psychopath! Let's go!
Oh God. Why? Oh God. Why?
What is your problem?
Sorry, but I'm not going to that ridiculous college.
Together with you.
You're acting like a bad girl.
Me? Am I a bad girl?
You said it too much.
I understand that your mother is the cause of this problem for you
Wait, wait. Is this your professional opinion?
Tremendous success.
Okay. Listen, you need to study somewhere better.
If you want people to take you seriously, okay?
I'm telling you the truth.
Hey, have you read your mother's book?
No. Actually, he wrote something bad about me once, so
I already know he hates me.
Yes. Maybe you should read this.
Yes? Why?
Because you are just like him.
Microphone.
Wise advice:
If you want to be loved, don't be rude.
Well, advice for that scoundrel: I don't care if they don't like me.
Oh, a lie.
True.
No, you think too much. And that's understandable.
The!
Mom? What are you doing here?
What are you doing here?
I live here.
So, it should be in Vermont.
I came to take care of the cat.
- Where is Mr. Magoo? - Mom, mom, stop.
Leave that behind.
Throw it away.
Okay, I'm almost done. I went to the factory with my suitcase.
I don't care. I don't care. Leave him alone. No
don't move, don't walk, don't work, and don't touch anything.
I
The;
I just cleaned it up.
Hey, let me - No, no, please!
Please don't do this.
Stay where you are. Don't move.
Miruz.
Lindy?
Lindy, where are you?
Destruction.
Don't panic!
