Farid: Dr. Murray
said your hearing is fine!
It's not the same.
I've lost my touch.
Farid: Hey, no salt.
How am I supposed to work?
Farid: We're not here to work.
(sighing)
Look, just give it
some time, okay?
You'll adjust to the medication.
And if I don't?
Farid: You will.
Are you happy being my nurse?
I love taking care of you.
What if this is
as good as I get?
For the rest of our lives.
I'm thinking of
going into town today, huh?
We could, uh
Check out a few shops,
Get some fresh salmon,
throw it on that nasty barbecue
And hope for the best.
Jo: I'm still pretty tired.
(phone vibrating)
(vibrating)
Wow, they've been
really persistent.
You must have won a cruise.
C'mon. Come with me.
Farid (on radio:) and while
the spectre of satanism
And wandering psychopaths
makes for a better ghost story,
The tragedy of a man
with no way out
But to kill himself
and his entire family
Is perhaps the
more difficult reality
For those left behind to accept.
♪
And our youth ministry
is gearing up
For their breakfast at midnight
function next month.
- So, if, um

Anyone here
Wants to donate
their baking talents,
Cough-cough, mrs. Cornish
(congregants laughing)
They will gladly take all
the help they can get. Uh
We have a very
Special guest with us today.
I would like you all
to welcome back
Mrs. Danvers.
You will all, no doubt, recall
That rena's 26-year-old
daughter, beth,
Went missing from the island
six months ago today.
Rena and I would like
to thank you
For your efforts
in searching for beth
Over these past several months.
And we continue to pray
That the danvers family
will soon know peace.

Woman: Did I spook you?
Jo: Uh
I'm from next door.
I thought
I'd come by and say hi.
So, hi.
Christina.
Uh, jo.
I caught you staring.
Oh, god, sorry.
No, no, it's fine.
I've seen you too.
So, how are you
liking the cottage?
Ah
It's a bit too fancy.
Is it?
- Yeah.
- It was a last-minute trip.
It's all we could find.
You too, huh?
(chuckling)
well, we built it.
- Wow.
- Mm-hmm. Do you want a tour?
Really?
Jesus, yes. The amount of money
we spent on that thing?
Please, come see it.
But just so you know, we are
surviving on compliments,
So if it fails your
expectations, just lie.
- Okay.
- Oh, and you can meet neil.
He also needs
constant affirmation,
So Good luck.
Coming?
- Okay.
- Okay, come on.
Pastor:
Thanks for coming. Yeah.
All right. See you next week.
Farid matar.
Wasn't Expecting you.
Farid: Daniel mcpherson.
It's daniel cape now.
So, originally,
it was only four bedrooms,
But then, neil insisted on a
fifth, for whatever reason.
- It was--
- (phone ringing)
Oh no. Um
It's work.
Why don't you just
go ahead and poke around?
Uh Okay.
Yeah. All our dirty little
secrets are tucked away,
Don't worry. It's fine. Go.
Alessandra? Hi.
Okay, okay. Just calm down.

Hi.
Our new neighbour.

Christina's outside.
She said I could look around.
Huh. What do you think?
It's amazing.
Smoothie?
Uh
How long are you
staying here for?
This summer, I think.
I'm not sure.
My boyfriend rented the place.
To kept lovers.
Did you notice his haircut?
Jo's been watching us.
And he hates when
I don't notice his haircuts.
Look at me.
Oh
Okay.
I love your new haircut.
- (neil moaning)
- (christina giggling)
See?
Constant affirmation.
♪
How did you find me?
You left an easy trail.
Don't sell yourself short,
Farid; you're talented.
I'm-- I'm a fan.
Off the record.
Why did you do it?
I'm not wearing a wire.
You can check me if you want.
I understand your anger
and your revulsion toward me.
Please believe me when I say
That those poor people
did not deserve
What happened to them.
My once family, the firm,
as they call themselves,
Are incredibly powerful,
And they'll do anything
to protect their money.
But they have cast me out,
Long ago. I'm as good
as dead to them and that's--
That's how I prefer it.
As you can see,
that life is behind me now.
I have a family of my own and a
community that relies on me.
It's been over 30 years.
I understand how you feel, but
if you'll allow me to tell you--
Tell me what?
What? That you found god?
That you're helping
more people every Sunday
From behind your little pulpit
Than you ever could
from behind bars?
Those are actually
the broad strokes, yes.
Why don't you tell it
to the police instead?
Would you hear me out first?
I believe I might
I just might change your mind.
Do you think you're innocent?
I believe I should be free.
You murdered children.
- I understand--
- do you understand
How rosanne knockwood's mother
Lives on without her daughter?
Do you understand
joseph chaffey's grief?
If somebody murdered your wife
and your two daughters tonight,
Would he deserve to live free?
If you're the
good man you say you are,
You'll turn yourself in.
The hands you hold
that bible with
Are the same hands that
butchered that family.
If you would just hear me out
Why? I'm not the police.
I don't get to decide your
punishment and neither do you.
And I don't have the
evidence to put you away myself.
All I can do is urge you
to do what's right.
What about my family?
I am no good to
anyone in prison.
You're a murderer.
Yes, I was.
And I have lived with that
every day for 34 years.
But I am a changed man and I
will convince you of that.
- You can't.
- I must.
I am a good man, mr. Matar.
I serve god. I do good work.
I have changed,
And I need you to believe that.
When I listen
To your podcast,
When I heard joseph chaffey,
Sandra loughty,
maggie knockwood
I came apart.
Daniel mcpherson
Deserves to die for what he did,
But I know in my soul
I am no longer that man.
I will never not carry
the sins of daniel mcpherson.
But if I can convince you,
A man who will not be convinced
that I should be free,
Then, maybe I, daniel cape,
Can live out the rest of my days
as a husband and a father,
And use that freedom to do
Just a little more
good in this world.
Can you not set aside
your anger and
Be truly open
to what I have to say?
And if you can't convince me?
Then, I will confess.
(loon calling)
Here, it's my
ashwaganda-verbena blend.
Jo: Thank you.
I bet you're dying
to know how I got it.
- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.
It's okay.
It's what brought me here.
What happened?
Well, um
Four years ago, my boyfriend and
I were camping in banff,
And in the middle of the night,
I woke up and camilo was gone.
So, I went out
to look for him and
That's when I saw it,
The bear.
It clawed me.
There was so much blood.
I went for the tent,
for the bear spray,
And it grabbed me
and was pulling me out,
And that's when
I heard camilo yell,
It went for him.
Camilo's face was hanging off.
Then, the bear started
eating him alive.
I just I ran.
Fuck.
I was the lucky one.
But I couldn't move on,
And the scar kept
re-infecting itself.
I wished the bear
had torn me to pieces, too.
And I realized that,
if I wanted to live,
Like live,
That I needed to
do it on my own.
What the doctors could offer
were just band-aids,
Just pills that make
living lifeless.
And how long have
you been medicated?
It's like you're split, right?
Like one part of you is just
Going through the motions,
And then the other part
is hovering just overhead.
And the worst part is things
that once brought you joy,
They don't feel like
anything anymore.
You lose pieces of yourself.
Six months.
I don't know,
I thought it'd get easier.
Like once I got used to it
It wouldn't be so bad.
It doesn't get better, jo.
But
What if we could
choose to accept
Instead of reject,
To choose, you know,
curiosity over shame?
What if you made the decision
Of what to do with your life?
Here.
Jo: What's this?
(jo sniffling)
It's is where the path
back to yourself begins.

Aunt hannah.
Aunt hannah:
Jo, how's the vacation?
Well, beats the loony bin.
How's my mother's house?
You settling in okay?
Aunt hannah: Listen,
I didn't call for a fight.
- Oh, no?
- A box arrived from montreal.
Some long-term care facility
out there called west haven.
Listen, jo, I'm Not really
sure how to tell you this.
Last week,
one of their patients died
And they forwarded her
belongings to the house.
Her name was Rose quarry.
She was 89 years old.
I called the place immediately
And asked for whatever
info they could give me,
And let me tell you,
it wasn't much.
All I know is she was
admitted in 1950 by her family,
Our family.
A trust was set up to pay
for her care indefinitely.
After that, no one visited her,
not once in 70 years.
You were right, jo.
You and martha were right.
I'm so sorry.
Send me it.
Aunt hannah: What?
The box, overnight it.
I'll send you the address.
Aunt hannah: Okay.
What about the room?
Aunt hannah:
There is no room, jo.
