Wild Cherry (2025) s01e05 Episode Script

1
- I promise I won't show anyone.
- CAMERA CLICKS
I'm not your girlfriend any more,
incel boy.
- If you touched Grace
- What?! Now, you listen to me.
I only let Allegra do
a silly little dance
because she paid me. Ten grand.
- You are behind this app?
- Yes.
Is everything you have not enough?
Is everything YOU have not enough?
You said this was going
to blow over.
You know, if you want to deal with
this alone, then you deal with it.
You've been looking at porn
on your computer. I saw it.
Iris still doesn't contact you?
We haven't seen her since the party.
Wait, Iris!
Iris sent me a text saying
"We are but demons who dream."
I saw Iris's jacket
in K Rizz's video.
He's the one hosting these parties
and then Iris literally
goes missing.
These are shaken, not stirred.
- Planning on behaving yourself
tonight?
- Oh, no.
I don't think so.
We can be other people.
Jeremy
Why did you say that name?
It's just a name.
Your daughter was running
a sexting ring.
It was disturbed.
I can't just call my father
and make things disappear.
Stop, stop, stop. Stop here.
CRYING
Oh, no
SHE CRIES
# Yo, I'll tell you what I want
What I really, really want
# So tell me what you want
What you really, really, want
# I'll tell you what I want
What I really, really want #
GIGI: Grace was good at everything.
She loved making videos
and taking photos
They're iconic. You need to have
more, like, attitude.
Like this?
Yeah.
She didn't mind being in front of
the camera,
but she was a visionary.
# Get your act together
We could be just fine. #
For Grace,
The Catalogue was never meant
to be a bad thing.
I have an idea.
It was a way to take back control
for her friend.
# If you wanna be my lover
# You gotta get with my friends
# Make it last forever
# Friendship never ends. #
They were not going to be judged.
MUSIC ECHOES AWAY
But The Catalogue
was bigger than them.
It was like a gateway drug.
And it tasted sweet for a while.
On the count of three, say BBDIB.
One, two, three.
- ALL:
- Bad bitches do it better!
# Dear daughter
# Do you miss me?
# I can hear your voice humming
# Dear daughter
# Where are you now?
# Ask me for a lullaby. #
I'm ready.
Oh, Grace.
Everything's going to be OK,
I promise.
I know you're hurting.
We all loved Iris so much.
They're just coming.
And Allegra does not want to go.
I get it.
Today's going to be a tough day.
Juliet?
Yes, I'm listening, I heard you.
Nothing happened with Gigi
after you left the room.
I was only there
because you seemed into it.
I was doing it for you.
We will be better.
We have to be, for Allegra.
FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
- Are we going?
- Come and sit with us.
We're family.
We need to be there for each other.
I'm fine.
People die every day.
MUSIC: Imam Jednu Zelju
by Kalem
Oh, hi.
Great. You remembered the roses.
Jocasta's in there
if you wanted to go and find her.
I just can't imagine
what Jelena's going through.
I said some things the other night.
Me too.
It puts things in perspective.
I cannot believe Iris is dead.
Have the police said anything?
No. But they interviewed Jocasta.
And Grace.
I hope the police
handle this quickly.
It's traumatic for the girls.
I'm so stupid.
I'm sorry.
And I'm sorry for everything.
MOURNFUL SINGING
Did you bring roses?
We're here. That's what matters.
SINGING CONTINUES
FAMILY SING A LAMEN
Just breaks my heart.
What do you think happened?
Well, she drowned, right?
Wandered off from the party
and fell in.
- That text Iris sent
- Don't mention it.
It'll just cause more upset
for everyone.
You're right.
I'm sorry.
I came to pay my respects.
I know what you did.
You told your school about
The Catalogue.
I warned you.
You think because you're a Lonsdale,
you're untouchable.
You're not.
Everyone knows you hated Iris.
You were jealous of her.
It's why I put her in the vote.
I'm quite good at Photoshop.
What are you talking about?
I took Grace's phone
and I uploaded Iris's photo
to the app.
Why the fuck did you do that?
I wanted you to feel what it was
like to not be number one.
You asked me to go after Iris
that night.
I hope you're happy now.
Hi.
- Did you speak to the police?
- Yeah.
What did you say about that night?
Like, did you say
Grace made her take drugs?
I didn't make her take drugs.
What the fuck?
- Don't put this on me!
- That's not what I'm not saying
Of course the first thing
you think about is blaming Grace.
- What the hell, Jocasta?
- Did you tell them
that you made Iris's life hell
every day?
- Don't say that.
- But she did! I hate her!
Iris is dead because of you.
DOOR CLOSES
Do you actually think she drowned?
Yeah.
Don't you?
Juliet, I've been crying nonstop.
The thought of her in that lake
Offer the grandparents first.
We all have to muck in. Excuse me.
GIGI CLEARS THROA
Can you chop?
You're embarrassed.
Excuse me?
You're embarrassed that
..you and your husband seduced me.
I'm not judging.
I just felt a little used.
That's not what happened.
You gave us all drugs.
You do realise that a girl is dead?
You do understand that?
Why are you being so rude?
I tried to be your friend.
It's not my fault
that your husband came on to me.
You don't know anything
about my marriage.
I know that you're unhappy.
And I also know that your daughter
does whatever she wants
to whoever she wants
with zero consequences.
You might have money, Gigi,
but you have zero class.
You don't fucking belong here.
Juliet, hi. Um
- How are you doing?
- I'm fine, I'm fine.
The press are sniffing
around outside. Oof!
I don't remember the last time
there's been a death on the island.
Maybe everyone should just stop
referring to this place
as an island,
seeing as it's not an island.
She's American. What would she know?
There is something SO odd
about that woman.
INAUDIBLE CONVERSATION
Just a minute.
Sorry I couldn't make it today.
Who are you talking to?
I'm so sorry. I'll call you back.
I said, who are you talking to?
My therapist.
I missed a session today.
You never told me
you have a therapist.
Yeah, well, you know
things have been rough between us
and I haven't had anyone
to talk to about it.
You don't value me.
I work for you.
I'm basically your employee
at work and at home.
But you are my employee.
- I mean No, I meant
- Yeah!
And there it is. Not in the house.
I'm not your employee at home,
I am your husband.
And you clearly have something
going on and you won't tell me.
You want something to be wrong
so you can fix me.
HE SCOFFS
What?! See? See?
This is why I didn't tell you
about the therapy.
It's not about fixing. Jesus!
You're the one watching porn
all day because I won't talk.
You thinkyou think I'm going on
porn sites all day long?
- Lorna, is this some kind of joke?
- I have seen it on the computer.
- Oh, fucking hell!
- You said the same at Gigi's.
Why do you always presume the worst
in everyone around you?
SHE SIGHS
I'm sorry I'm not all
nicey-fucking-nice all the time,
but I don't get the chance to relax.
I've never had that.
I've never had it, ever.
Well, then, tell me that!
Let me know what you're thinking.
I am here,
but you are not honest with me.
I made up a name the other night
and you freaked out.
Who is Jeremy?
What is it?
You can tell me.
I can't.
I'm sorry, but I
..I need you to let me in.
I haven't been honest with you
about Grace's dad.
I know you didn't want me
to tell the other mums
about my sessions with Iris.
But I really enjoyed the time
I had with her.
I think she only made
your appointments.
Did she tell you anything?
She was a free spirit.
She talked about all that stuff
to do with the app, but not much.
What app?
I thought the school
would've told you.
Maybe K Rizz was with Iris
that night.
- That's why you had her jacket.
- Will you stop?
She drowned.
It wasn't anyone's fault.
Maybe you were with her.
Did you take her phone?
I was waiting for you that night.
DISTANT SHOUTING
- JELENA:
- How the fuck
no-one told me about this?!
SHOUTS ANGRILY
My daughter's photos
are on some app?!
What's this sex app?
- Come on, Jelena, calm down.
- They said it was Grace.
Where's Lorna? I want to know.
It was Allegra too.
It wasn't just Grace.
SHOCKED MUTTERING
What did your girls fucking do?
Jelena, this isn't the right time
for this. You're upset.
I know I'm fucking upset.
My daughter is dead!
Please don't shout at them
like that.
- Please
- You put naked photos
of my daughter on some app?!
- What's going on?!
- Now I have to kill myself!
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Why did no-one tell me?!
Nobody fucking cares
in this whole place.
You're all fucking bitches.
And I hope you're happy now.
Everybody,
get the fuck out of my house.
- Get the fuck out of my house!
- WHISPERS:
- Let's go.
KETTLE BOILS
Tomorrow we're going to speak to
a lawyer about this app.
What? Why?
Because, Grace, I'm worried, OK?
I'm scared, what happened with Iris.
Can we watch a film?
Maybe later, darling.
We're just talking to Grace.
You're always talking to her.
Oh, my God, my friend is dead!
Can you stop being such a baby?
Hey, hey, don't start on her.
Don't tell me what to do,
Steven, you're not my dad.
- Grace!
- I hate all of you.
I hate you!
You take that back! Grace!
What?
I don't know who you are.
Do you have any idea
how much trouble you're in?
Maybe I'm a teenage psychopath.
Maybe Iris is dead because of me.
Why, Allegra, did you do this?
I sent Hugo pictures of me
and he shared them
at his school.
The boys thought they had
so much power.
But then we were the ones in charge.
Why didn't you tell us?
I made everyone go to the party.
It's my fault. I'm sorry.
It's OK.
It's OK, darling. It's OK.
It's OK.
BELL RINGS
HE CLEARS THROA
All right.
I'm sorry.
You should be. You really fucked up.
We've given you everything
and this is how you thank us?
First you steal money from us,
then you shame our family.
I didn't mean to.
- Stop crying.
- I can't. You're making me upset.
Just like your mother.
SLAMS TABLE
Stop it now!
You do not admit to anything,
no matter what she says.
- Raef called you?
- I don't know why.
It looks like you're handling this
so well, Juliet.
- You think that Allegra
bullied this girl that drowned?
- No.
No, I never said that.
It's just not going away,
this app stuff, the photos.
The nude photos they took of
the dead girl, yes?
I know you spoke to the school
behind my back.
They should've expelled Allegra too.
You knew she was in the wrong, Dad.
Allegra is running a sexting ring
for underage teenagers.
That's what people are going to say
about her.
We need to make sure we have
an alibi for the night of the party.
Erthe night of Iris's death, I
..I wasn't home, I was out.
I wasn't with Raef, I was
What about your security cameras?
I deleted the footage.
Allegra and Grace snuck out
and we came back at the same time.
So they don't have an alibi.
I've always tried to be
a good daughter.
I wanted you to be proud of me.
Did I ever make you proud?
Will you shut up?
I'm not going to apologise
about how I was as a father.
Yes, I was controlling.
But you were promiscuous.
Clearly, that hasn't changed.
- VOICE ON TABLET:
- ..a very naughty boy.
So am I going to have
to tell you off?
Mia, are you ready for school?
Ooh!
We're only going to be there
for a few hours.
Sorry about earlier.
Are you watching a film you wanted
to see with Az?
30 years old living
with a bunch of teenagers.
Reports from parents they can't
get hold of their kids.
They end up watching them online.
Sounds like anyone you know?
No, but I'd like to meet him.
Do you think it's cool
to make money off teenagers?
Everyone that lives at Rizz House
is over the age of 18.
- They come and go as they please.
- What happens at your house?
I'm sorry.
It's not your house. You rent it
from a wealthy family.
PHONE BUZZES
You live with your grandma.
DOOR OPENS
Charlie?
Just be a minute.
What have you got for me?
DOOR SHUTS
You know
..you'd be quite hot
if you weren't such a pig.
A girl drowned at a party
you threw before.
A strange coincidence, no?
She fucking fell drunk
off her face into a pool.
That weren't my fault.
I wasn't charged.
Tried to set me up.
Listen, you can ask my Rizz House
crew where I was that night.
We don't know where any of them are.
I guess your followers disappeared.
Look.
Sosome drunk girl fell
into a lake.
It's not my lake!
HE LAUGHS
DOOR OPENS
I need to talk to you.
Hey.
Thanks.
I spoke to Mia.
She's the one who's been searching
stuff on my laptop.
What?!
I'm shocked, to be honest,
but she's curious.
I said we'd talk to her.
She's seen it, so
Oh, wow.
I really messed them both up.
We both messed them up.
- I'm a total fuck-up.
- I never said
that and I don't think it.
You hid the truth about
Grace's father
from everyone because you're
blaming the wrong person.
He was your boss
and he took advantage of you.
Grace hates me.
We're not going to lose her.
You need to let me help.
What else do I need to know?
I got a text from Iris
the night she died.
Well, what did it say?
"We are but demons who dream."
I don't know what it means.
But I didn't tell the police.
I'll look into it.
I don't understand what
you're afraid of.
Do you think Grace is involved
in Iris's death?
Whatever happens,
we'll deal with it together.
Good morning.
I'm Detective Inspector Khan
of Richford Lake CID.
This morning, the force
have launched a murder probe
after the results
of Iris Milanovic's postmortem.
What we first suspected to be
a tragic accident
is now being treated
as a murder investigation.
- Oh, my God.
- We will be speaking to
people who were at the party on
the Weatherford Estate that night,
appealing for more witnesses
to come forward.
This includes friends,
acquaintances and anyone who has
had a recent interaction with her.
I want to assure the public
that we will not stop
our investigation
until we have identified
and apprehended whoever
is responsible for this murder.
While no suspect
has yet been formally identified,
a full manhunt is under way and
there is a concentrated
effort to locate the victim's phone.
We believe the phone could contain
crucial evidence,
location data that may
STOPS ABRUPTLY
I see no other position to take
regarding Allegra's place
at the school.
Your father put me in
a compromising position
when I agreed to keep
Allegra's name out of it.
I never asked you to do that.
I did warn you
at the meeting about the video.
Following Iris's death, this
is now a criminal investigation.
And I can't have
either of them here.
It's out of my hands.
I feel like we're in a nightmare.
My father told me that the police
are questioning K Rizz.
- Do YOU think it could be him?
- Well, it would make sense.
I mean, it's his party. There's
clearly something off about him.
A girl drowned in his pool before.
And he forced Allegra
to pay him ten grand
to post her on his account.
It's basically extortion.
Innocent people don't do
things like that.
And if K Rizz is a murderer
..it doesn't matter, in a way,
if they did the app.
Allegra and Grace being kicked out
of school doesn't help, does it?
Are you talking about blaming
K Rizz for everything?
We're lucky nothing worse
happened to our girls.
This is the right thing to do.
Hey.
- Are you OK?
- Yeah.
I just want to state
for the purpose of the tape
that you have been made aware
that you aren't being
questioned as a suspect.
We spoke to your school
and they said you were expelled
for taking photos -
is that correct?
Yeah.
Were these uploaded to
The Catalogue app?
Yes.
We know Iris's photo
was on there too.
Were you the one to introduce
Iris to K Rizz?
- And you met him online?
- Yeah.
I did a dance with him.
Did you ever do a photoshoot
at K Rizz's house?
Not Iris, but we did.
How was he with you?
Did you find anything
strange about him?
I thought it was weird
that he hung out
with all these teenagers,
if that's what you mean.
Did he ever ask you to do anything
that feltstrange?
- He'd let us take photos in his
house.
- Did he ask you to do that?
We found some of the photos
on K Rizz's phone.
Um
If K Rizz forced you to create
this app, we can help you.
You don't need to protect him.
The app was K Rizz's idea.
We just went along with it.
K Rizz had an idea about an app
..where we would all share
photos online.
He called it The Catalogue.
- Maybe you should sit down.
- I'll stand if it's all right, mate.
Thank you for being so patient
and cooperative.
- Have they finished?
Can we see them?
- We are.
They'll be right out. It was tough
but they were really helpful.
Our digital forensics team
are making sure
that none of the photos have been
exploited outside of the app.
We'll make sure they're getting
the support they need.
Thank you.
Hey.
- Sorry.
- SHE LAUGHS NERVOUSLY
Don't worry. The person responsible
will not get away with this.
- We should probably go and look
for Allegra.
- YOU can.
See you at home.
DOOR CLOSES
BIRDSONG
SHE KNOCKS
I can't believe that you
were squatting here for so long.
It was empty,
so I just figured I could stay.
But then K Rizz moved in.
The night of the party,
you trashed the house because you
wanted him to leave?
Yeah, we were here first.
And anyway
..I didn't have anywhere else to go.
Where are your family?
I don't have anyone.
Just a sister, but she doesn't
want to know.
Well, maybe I could
stay here with you.
I don't think anyone would care.
That's a mad idea.
What if K Rizz comes back?
They think he's the one
that killed Iris.
Why?
That night he was so fucked up
those Rizz House guys
had to carry him to bed.
He couldn't even walk.
How do you know?
I slept in the pool house, so I saw.
Well, did you see Iris?
Nah.
Why did you come here?
I talked to the police.
I told them that K Rizz
made the app.
Why? He could go to prison.
I didn't want to.
My mum made me do it.
And Grace's mum.
They want it all to go away and
he COULD be a murderer.
So, you are denying all knowledge of
an app called The Catalogue.
I already told you, it ain't
got nuttin' to do with me.
You need to speak to those
two mad girl.
Do you know what this town is like?
The people here are very wealthy
and connected,
which means that we have a lot of
manpower to solve this quickly
and find evidence.
Why was Iris's jacket in your house?
- She must've left it there.
- There's
blood in the bedrooms in your house.
It's mine. I cut my hand.
What the fuck?
- Did you know that Iris was 16?
- No, but I didn't do anything.
- What was she doing at your party?
- I don't What's going on?
Why were there photos of
Iris's friends on your phone?
What? No, no, no.
Allegra sent those to me.
- I didn't ask for them.
- They were taken at your house.
- You're making it look mad.
- I'm stating the facts.
If you have nothing to do
with this app,
why were there photos
of teenagers on your phone?
And why was their friend found
with a skull fracture after
attending YOUR party?
Lewis Dixon, we do have to tell you
that you are now being questioned
- as a suspect in the murder of
Iris Milanovic.
- Murder?
You do not have to say anything
but it may harm your defence
if you do not mention
when questioned something which
you later rely on in court.
Anything you do say may be given
in evidence.
You bitch!
HE SHOUTS
You set me up! I didn't do nothing!
I didn't kill her!
I'm going! I'm going!
HE CONTINUES SHOUTING
DOOR SHUTS,
SHOUTING GROWS DISTAN
SHE EXHALES SHAKILY
I'm sorry I'm putting you
through this.
It's OK. It's OK.
We only made The Catalogue
because the boys were sharing
photos of the girls.
Why should we be the ones
to be shamed for it?
But you know that's not the right
way to take control, Grace.
I know we took it too far
but it was so exciting.
It felt SO goodat first.
Sometimes you have intentions
and other people
..they do things
and it's out of your control.
Was my dad a bad guy?
I'll tell you everything, I promise.
But it's not easy for me.
SHE EXHALES
I need to tell you something.
LINE RINGS
VOICEMAIL: Hi, this is Allegra.
SHE SIGHS
- DISTANT CONVERSATION:
- Women are great drivers.
- Isn't that right?
- Is your dad always like this?
He's just being silly.
- Apart from that time when she
- No.
RAEF LAUGHS
Oh, God.
- Well, that's
- Oh.
What's going on?
Gigi dropped by.
I thought she could speak
to Allegra.
Oh.
I'm I'm happy to help
however I can.
DOOR CLOSES
I think that's her.
Why are you here?
Juliet, I'm worried about you.
I can take care of my own family,
thank you.
I didn't mean to interrupt.
FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
This is Jacob.
He's staying for dinner.
Juliet,
will you join me for a moment?
So, how long have you two been
seeing each other, then?
- Er, not long.
- Well, it feels like
we've known each other forever.
Oh-ho!
- STEVEN:
- What do we do?
HE SIGHS
You don't want to tell Juliet,
do you?
What, and have her tell the police?
No.
I don't understand.
Why did she have Iris's phone?
She thinks someone was trying
to frame her to get rid of it.
Anyway, we know K Rizz
was the one who killed Iris.
We don't know that for a fact.
What are you saying?
- What, Steven? What?
- We know he didn't share the photos.
Setting up an innocent black man?
Look, you want it to be him, Lorna.
You do, because
HE SIGHS
..I don't know.
- DI KHAN:
- Let me in, please.
- Ma'am.
What did you want to show me?
Allegra and Grace created
The Catalogue.
And they were getting students from
school to upload their photos to it.
Iris wanted them to delete the app.
But they didn't want to?
Tell her the truth.
They were making loads of
money from it.
They said Iris was a snitch
for going to the teachers.
Had they ever spoken about Iris
like this before?
Yeah.
Show her.
Is Iris coming or not?
I don't know, she said maybe.
Iris.
Iris, either join The Catalogue
MUFFLED SPEECH
..slice you up.
Stop pissing everyone off
and just come here.
Don't get Grace mad!
- Yeah.
- Or we're coming for you.
BANG!
RAEF SIGHS
Is anyone going to talk
about the fact
that Allegra went to prison?
I wasn't in prison.
I was interviewed.
HE SIGHS
Can I be excused?
No. Sit down.
Stop it.
Family's important right now.
You're lucky you have each other.
I used to be close
to my brother too.
We don't talk any more.
He was a troublemaker.
In and out of prison, actually.
He always shows up
looking for money.
Do you have family, Jacob?
Nah.
I thought you had a sister.
Yeah, but she's not around.
She was diagnosed
with antisocial
personality disorder.
Sorry to hear that.
WINE POURS
Is this all the wine?
You've had enough.
The thing is, you try your
best as a parent.
Try to be a good mother.
A good wife.
But it doesn't always work out.
We know you're a good mother
because you put up with me and him.
"Him"? Provided you
with everything you've ever wanted
- and you throw it in my face.
- Well, you blame Mum for everything.
You don't even want to be
a part of this family.
We're like trophies to you.
Running a sexting ring
and embarrassing us.
- Some trophy you are.
- Don't speak to her like that.
You can't disappear every weekend
and have affairs
and expect any of us to like you.
What did you just say to me?
Yeah, we're not stupid.
It's what you do.
Get back here!
- Arthur.
- What is wrong with him?
You don't deserve Mum.
Go on, then, go on!
Very nice!
Thanks for, um, dinner.
They've seen behind
the curtain, Raef.
And what the fuck is
that supposed to mean, Juliet?
You've turned our children
against me.
- Is that what you wanted?
- Come on, calm down.
- I'm sorry.
Excuse me. Excuse me.
HE EXHALES
You can't hide your disdain
for this family anymore.
Your disdain for me.
Jesus. You're crazy.
I am not crazy.
Yes, you are, Juliet.
You are delusional.
Welcome to the fucking real world
where our daughter is a criminal
and our marriage is a sham!
You are a terrible mother.
SIRENS BLARE OUTSIDE
Mum?
- NARRATOR:
- People thought they were
poor, innocent, helpless girls.
# Hold tight
It's getting too violent
# Rince into the moonlight
Find a way to hide it
# Leading myself to defiance
# Who are you, who are you
# But a slave to the news
# There's a side to choose. #
I'm coming up.
# See it disguise with
no will to lose
# White clouds in the sky. #
They were led to believe
that bad shit didn't happen here
- Wait!
- ..nothing could touch them.
# Black clouds by the moon. #
They had privacy.
Can we come?
They were safe.
Can I get in the car?
They had wonderful lives.
What is happening?
- I'll come with you.
RAEF:
- Juliet!
- I love you.
- What's your name and what's
your rank?
- Get back.
- Get off me.
What's your name
and what is your rank?
That's a 16-year-old girl.
# There's a righteous world
inside of you. #
You did this. Sadie.
But they weren't special.
They were no better
than anybody else.
