Tell Me Lies (2022) s03e02 Episode Script

1
Thank you for letting me stay here.
It was honestly one of the nicer
Christmas breaks I've had.
I'm so glad you were here.
- Aw. I love you.
- I love you.
Have you heard from the elderly man?
No. I'm honestly
just pretending that Oliver
was like a figment of my imagination
and praying that I never run into him.
I can't believe she had a thing
with a married guy.
He was married? The old guy?
[BREE] Getting back together
with Stephen is psychotic.
Stephen and I know each other so well.
I don't think he can really
surprise me at this point.
Hey, are you and I good
after the other stuff?
Honestly, it's been rough
thinking about you and Lucy together.
- I'm sorry, man. I
- But the reality is,
I still want to be with her.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Hey, guys!
Molly, are you on drugs?
Yes, I am. It's MDMA.
I got it from this, like, grad student.
- Have we bought weed from him before?
- I don't think so. Why?
He seemed really familiar to me.
It kind of just feels like I'm solo.
I get that feeling.
You are so judgmental, always.
Sounds like I've really been on your mind.
Yeah, actually, it's a problem,
especially because I have a boyfriend.
Stephen, there's nothing
I'm not telling you.
[STEPHEN] You had sex with Evan.
He cheated on Bree with you.
I already know.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Please, please.
This does not have to ruin anything.
Please, you have to forgive me. Please.
I am trying to. I don't know if I can.
Let's just see how it goes.
Okay.

everything's okay.
Um, can Can you call me?
Okay, bye.
- [FLIPS PHONE SHUT]
- Why do you sound so nervous?
I-I was being dumb.
You were late, and I-I thought
something was wrong.
I was 15 minutes late.
I know. I was overthinking it
because of our talk yesterday.
What'd you think I was gonna do?
I don't know. I'm sorry.
Let's just try to have fun tonight.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
[CHUCKLING] Okay.

Hello!
- Hi!
- Sorry we're late.
- It's my fault.
- It's okay.
How's it going?
Great.
- [MUSIC STOPS]
- [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
That was so good.
Amazing. Amazing work.
Did Evan come with you guys?
Why would he come with us?
- No, I just thought that he
- He didn't.
Are you guys gonna sing?
Uh, you should definitely sing.
- [BREE] I don't know.
- [LUCY] Come on.
You have such a good voice. You have to.
- Come on.
- I don't know.
What if you sing to me
and it will be super romantic?
- [BREE] I don't know
- [LUCY] Please?
Hey, bartender's ignoring me.
Uh do you want me to try?
What are you gonna do,
hit on him until he serves you?
No. No, that is That's not what I meant.
I'm kidding. Let's go to the other side.
I'll be back.
- What do you want?
- Uh, whatever you're having.
Mm! I forgot to tell you,
Wrigley's gonna be in your
photography class on Monday.
I am?
Yeah. The Fundamentals
of Portraits, or whatever.
The elective that we picked out for you.
- [LAUGHS]
- No, yeah, I know.
I just didn't know
Bree was gonna be in it.
Well, that'll be fun.
Yeah.
You'll be alarmed at how little
I know about photography.
[PIPPA] Oh, my God. It'll be good.
Bree can keep an eye on you.
That's why I picked the class.
Keep an eye on me?
Yeah, 'cause I love you.
Don't do that.
Do what?
You don't need to ask people to,
like, to babysit me.
I didn't mean it like that.
- Well, how did you mean it?
- [PIPPA] I just meant
like she could help you
with assignments and stuff.
[WRIGLEY]
Do you think I'm that big of a mess?
[PIPPA] No.
Babe, you're overreacting.
I have to go to the bathroom.
Listen, I just thought
it would be a good idea
for you to be in class
with people that you know.
Why?
Because, otherwise, I'm worried
that you wouldn't actually go.
You know doing a bunch of electives
isn't gonna stop me
from killing myself, right?
If I wanted to kill myself,
I'd do it before class.
Or while you were sleeping.
I'd find my moment.
I'm joking. I'm being funny.
[TOILET FLUSHES]
Hey, weren't you in my
Econ class last year?
Oh, no. I'm a freshman.
Oh. Sorry, I must have
mistaken you for someone else.
I'm Bree.
Oh, Amanda.
I'm actually just stalling in here
as long as I can.
My friend is fighting
with her boyfriend at the bar.
- I'm sorry.
- It's fine.
Who are you here with?
Well, I was here with my roommate,
but she just left with a random guy, so
- I hate when that happens.
- Yeah.
I'm just gonna head home.
Why don't you just stay and have
a drink with me and my friends?
Really? Are Are you sure?
Yeah, yeah. You can be my buffer
in case they're still fighting.
- [CHUCKLES] Okay.
- Okay? Cool!
[SINGING INDISTINCTLY]
[APPLAUSE]
You wanna do a song with me?
Oh, I do not sing.
Well, neither do I.
Come on, it'll be fun.
- Okay, sure.
- Yeah?
Hey, guys.
- [WRIGLEY] Hey!
- [MOLLY] Hey!
- [WRIGLEY] Hi.
- [PIPPA] Hi. Hey.
You, uh
Did you guys come together, or?
I know. I have no self-respect.
It's fine.
Also, I-I don't remember
anything I said to you guys
when I was on MDMA.
- Oh, no, no. You were great.
- No, it was cute.
Hey, you good?
Yeah, all good.
Uh, shots?
- Yeah.
- Yes.
Hey, let's go, let's go request a song.
Evan's getting shots.
Don't you want a shot?
- Um
- Hey, guys. This is Amanda.
She's a freshman.
- Hi.
- [LUCY] Hey.
Oh, hey. Oh shit, I only got six.
Oh, that's okay. I want a cocktail anyway.
- Want to get a drink? Come on.
- Mm-hmm.
Okay, so I guess
we're adopting freshmen now?
No, I just think Bree's
a really nice person.
[GLASSES CLINK]
I think I'm gonna do a fun song.
[GLASSES CLINK]
Through the darkest night ♪
My only chance is calling ♪
So do you like your professors?
They're whatever.
Right. Do you have any favorites?
Not really.
Do you want this?
You don't like it?
It's just so sugary,
and I'm sure it's like a million calories.
And I need to lose 10 pounds.
What? No, you don't.
No, that's insane.
I do. Trust me.
I have gained so much weight this year.
And this guy I'm with,
I feel like he doesn't like it.
You're dating someone?
Yeah. It's complicated.
[APPLAUSE]
It's complicated how?
We've been together since high school.
Now we're trying to do long distance.
He's at NYU.
Right. Yeah.
[CHUCKLES]
Long distance is hard.
It's making me kind of crazy.
Last semester was so stressful.
I mean, I literally binge ate every night.
And now I'm just trying
to get back to my normal size
before I see him next.
You're so beautiful. You don't
You shouldn't be thinking like that.
I'm sorry. I-I don't usually word vomit
unless I'm drunk.
Hey, listen
Listen to me. You are so beautiful.
You don't need to lose any weight.
And your boyfriend can go fuck
himself if he thinks so, okay?
Thanks. I think I just, like,
haven't found my place here yet.
Well, freshman year
is really hard for everyone.
Maybe it's just different for guys.
My boyfriend is getting tagged
in photos like every weekend,
and I just feel like the loser girlfriend
who's all sad and homesick.
Well, let's take a photo.
Okay. [LAUGHS]
[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS]
- Give me your number, okay?
- Okay.
And I'll send it to you,
and you can post it.
[CHUCKLES] Okay.
I should get home.
I have an early class tomorrow.
Thanks again for the drink
and for being so nice.
Of course.
- Bye.
- Bye.
Bye. [LAUGHS]
Hey.
Hey. Did your little friend go home?
She was sweet.
Hey, you and I are singing next.
No, I don't think I'm in the mood.
- Oh, come on. It'll be fun.
- Eh, you do it alone.
I don't want to do it alone.
I want to do it with you. Come on!
Okay. All right.
Yeah!
Yeah, Stephen!
Sing for us.

I can't. You go.
- What? No.

I'll see you guys in a bit.
It's fine.
- [WRIGLEY CLEARS THROAT]
- Okay
Stephen.
Fuck. Stephen, wait.
Just wait.
Look, hey, hey.
I know, I know you're upset,
but you do not have
to sabotage everything, okay?
You think I'm sabotaging?
Seeing you and Evan in the same room,
picturing you together.
Seeing Bree, happy little idiot.
No fucking clue. I-I don't know.
I-I Maybe I can't get over it.
Wh-What does that mean?
What do you mean?
What do you mean, what does it mean?
I mean, are you Are you gonna tell Bree?
Is that what you're worried about?
Are you scared of losing me
or are you scared of losing Bree?
No, I am scared
of losing both of you, okay?
I love Bree,
and I obviously love you, too.
Look, you know I love you.
You wanna just go back to my place?
No.
Let's talk tomorrow.
[SOFT, TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
- [KNOCK ON DOOR]
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Hey, where'd you go?
I'm sorry. I should have texted.
Stephen and I got into
a stupid fight, but it
We don't have to get into it.
Okay.
Did you have fun with your new freshman?
She just looked so lonely.
I felt bad for her.
You just You just sensed she was lonely?
Okay, but you're gonna think I'm crazy.
I saw her coming out of Oliver's office.
No! Was he fucking her?
No. I'm just clinically insane
and paranoid.
Yeah, I don't know. I
I actually felt really bad for her.
We started talking, and she's
She's really insecure.
Mm.
I honestly don't know
what's wrong with me.
Are you still thinking about him a lot?
No.
I mean, yeah, obviously.
But it's not like I miss him, you know?
I think I just miss having something.
Oliver was this, like
exciting thing for me to focus on,
and now
all I have is myself.
And it just doesn't feel like very much.
Yeah, sometimes I just
I just feel really alone.
- [SIGHS]
- Bree.
I'm just so tired of being shocked
by people I care about.
[SIGHS]
I'm so sorry.
[SIGHS]
Sorry. Sorry.
Hey.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
Yeah, I just feel a little bit
I feel a little warm.
Okay. Do you feel like you might be sick?
I don't think so.
[SIGHS] Actually
Actually, no. I really don't feel great.
- [LAUGHS]
- Okay.
- [SIGHS]
- Well
Here, have some more of this.
- Okay.
- Okay?
I had just, like,
such a big fight with Wrigley
about literally nothing.
He's being such a fucking asshole.
Are you okay? You look weird.
Yeah, I just I feel like my, um
my heart's beating really fast.
I just feel sort of nauseous.
- Do you want to lay down?
- Yeah.
[BREE] Okay.
Yeah, okay.
[EXHALES SHARPLY]
- [SHAKY BREATHING]
- How's that?
You know, actually, that's worse, kind of.
[BREE] Okay.
I feel like my right hand's
a little bit numb.
What?
Or both, maybe?
Feels like Yeah, it's both.
Maybe they're just tingling
a little bit or something.
Did you eat something weird?
No, I think I'm having a panic attack.
Yeah.
Yeah, I am. It's bad.
I actually feel like I'm gonna vomit.
Oh. Trash can. Yeah. Trash can.
Trash can. There you go.
- [LUCY EXHALES DEEPLY]
- [PIPPA] You'll be all right.
It's okay.
I feel like I need, like, a
like a pill.
Like an Like an anxiety pill
or something?
- [PIPPA] We could call the guy.
- Okay.
- What guy?
- The drug dealer, Alex.
- I'm sure he has some.
- [BREE] Yeah.
Hey.
Does my tongue look like it's swelling up?
- No. It's normal size.
- You swear to God?
- [LINE RINGING]
- Swear to God.
- [ALEX] [ON PHONE] Hello?
- Yeah, hi. Is this Alex?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, my friend is having
a crazy panic attack,
so I wanted to buy some
anti-anxiety pills from you.
- Uh, how much do you need?
- I don't I don't know.
- Like a couple.
- More than that!
Uh, okay, yeah.
Whatever you have, I guess.
[ALEX] I can bring some in the morning.
That's Sorry, no.
Um, she needs you to come right now.
- It's the middle of the night.
- Yeah. No, I know.
But she's super pale
Can you tell him that it feels like
I'm about to float out of my body,
like through the right side of my head.
Okay, she's like really sweaty,
and she's saying a lot of weird shit,
and she can't wait.
So just please come now.
[ALEX] Fine. Where are you exactly?
- Bree
- [PIPPA] I'll text you the dorm number.
It's okay. It's okay.
So do you want to take a look at her?
I'm not a doctor.
- Right.
- Hey, you want Xanax or Klonopin?
Whatever you recommend.
Here, it's $150.
I've got a five-pill minimum.
[PIPPA] Okay.
[SIGHS] Yep.
Here you go.
Here. Just take one tonight, okay?
Okay.
How How long does it take to kick in?
[ALEX] Maybe half an hour.
That long?
Here. Give me your hand.
- What?
- Come here.
This is a calming technique.
- Okay.
- Yeah, I know it sounds dumb. I know.
But it's a way to slow down
your nervous system
before the Xanax kicks in.
[LUCY] Okay.
Wanna do it yourself?
- Okay.
- Yeah, okay.
Bree, didn't you show us that
freshman year?
[CHUCKLES]
Hey, you're okay.
Yeah, this just probably feels worse
because of the MDMA the other night.
Like some kind of delayed comedown.
Totally.
Yeah. That's a thing, right?
Yeah, it's different for everyone.
You took it.
How do you feel?
Fine.
Yeah, I guess some people
can handle shit better than others.
Hope you feel better.
- Bye.
- [DOOR CLOSES]
[PHONE LINE RINGS]
[ALEX] [OVER PHONE] Hello?
Alex.
[ALEX] Bree.
Pippa gave me your number.
[ALEX CHUCKLES]
Yeah, I was wondering
if you were gonna call.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Bree. Hey.
Hey.
Did you have fun last night?
Yeah, it was funny.
[EVAN] What time did you get home?
Uh
Not Not too late.
I'll I'll see you later.
Morning, Evan.
You all right?
Do you know Bree?
Uh, yeah. I think we met once or twice.
Why don't you come
talk to me for a second?
Come on. My office.
- You don't look well.
- Yeah.
I'll get you some water.
You and Bree know each other?
How do you know each other?
Uh, she was in my wife's class.
Look, I-I'm not sure what the issue is,
but why don't you take a seat
and we can talk this through?
This is awful.
I think I'm gonna be sick.
Well, I'd rather you weren't.
Was it you?
- You were fucking her?
- Okay, you're not making sense.
But whatever you're dealing with,
I'm sure that there is an easy solution.
- This is not okay.
- You need to calm down.
Well, you're a fucking professor!
All right, that is enough!
Let's, um
Let's talk about this, okay?
I'm right, though.
Aren't I?
Was it you?
I'll say it again.
I do not know what you're talking about.
[SCOFFS]
But I don't like that you're upset,
and I'd like to help you, if I can.
You clearly really care about this girl,
but maybe made some mistakes, right?
Right.
Well, for what it's worth,
if you're trying to get back
into her good graces,
I think causing a big commotion
and making accusations about her,
that's probably the worst
thing that you could do.
I mean, for one,
it would be extremely
disruptive to her life,
bringing that kind of
negative attention her way.
She'd never forgive you.
And also, it's really not attractive.
Attractive?
Are you fucking serious right now?
Isn't that important if you're trying
to be in a relationship with this girl?
Stop saying, "This girl."
Her name is Bree.
And you took advantage of her
when we broke up,
and you fucked with her head.
But I actually fucking care about her.
Again, what you're saying isn't true,
but I can see that you're hurting,
and I empathize.
But playing the victim
isn't gonna get you anywhere.
If she broke up with you,
then you need to look
at your own behavior.
You're a nice person.
I've seen the way you are in class.
You always try to make
other people feel comfortable.
It's nice.
But the reality is
people who get what they want
are the people who take what they want.
And if you're too scared to do that,
it doesn't mean other people will be.
There is no point
feeling sorry for yourself
because other people aren't
as well-behaved as you are.
I'm assuming that this isn't gonna
become a bigger problem.
No.
Good.
Now, tell me that you're feeling better
and you'll see me in class on Wednesday.
I'll see you in class on Wednesday.
And that you're feeling better.
Go fuck yourself.
[SIGHS]
So, what made you finally recognize me?
It was the tapping thing.
- Yeah.
- [CHUCKLES]
You know, I've seen you
walking around campus a bunch
since we started last fall.
- Really?
- Yeah.
Well, how did
How did you know it was me?
You look exactly how you did
when you were little.
[CHUCKLES]
- You should have said something.
- Yeah.
I don't know, I just thought you were
pretending not to know me.
No, I wouldn't do that.
You know, you seem like
you're doing really well.
- Do I?
- Yeah.
Yeah, I'm glad.
What are you doing at Baird?
What, in addition to dealing drugs
to you and your friends?
[ALEX LAUGHS]
No, I'm, uh,
I'm getting an M.A., Psychology.
[LAUGHING] Really?
- [CHUCKLING] Yeah.
- No way.
[BOTH LAUGHING]
Yeah, how long
How long has it been
since we saw each other?
What, like, were you eight?
Nine, I think?
Yeah.
You were about to get
your learner's permit.
I remember that.
Yeah, I'm I'm sorry that
we didn't stay in touch, Bree.
Me too.
I wanted to, but I didn't know
how to reach you.
Uh, how's your mom doing?
I don't know.
Yeah, it's been a couple years.
Saw her a few times in high school.
- You know how it is.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
Hey.
Hey.
Are you feeling any better?
Uh, yeah. I slept.
I feel like an actual person.
- Thank you.
- Of course.
Good. I'm glad.
Yeah.
Can I tell you something?
Yeah, yeah, of course.
So, I know that drug dealer guy, Alex.
[LAUGHS] What?
What do you What do you mean?
From growing up, we were
in a group home together for a while.
What? That's insane.
- I know. I know.
- That's crazy. What?
Yeah. I know. I didn't even
recognize him at first.
Oh, my God. Were Were you guys close?
I think so.
Yeah. He was He was nice to me.
I remember that.
I mean, I was so little. I
barely remember anything.
[LUCY] Mm-hmm.
And And from what I do remember,
it's like I don't know what's
real and what's my imagination.
But I remember him
being sort of protective.
Protective of what?
Well, you know that I said I was
in two good homes and one bad one?
Mm, yeah.
I met Alex in the bad one.
So you know that freshman girl, Amanda?
Mm-hmm.
I got guilted into making
more plans with her.
But, I mean, that's what I get
for stalking the innocent, so it's fine.
[INHALES DEEPLY]
I'm so sorry you had to deal
with so much bullshit, Bree.
It's fine.
It's not your fault.
[CELL PHONE VIBRATES]
I-I should get this.
- Hey.
- [STEPHEN] [ON PHONE] We need to talk.
Yeah, I agree.
[STEPHEN] Right now.
- Okay, where do you want to meet?
- Come to my room.
Yep, I'll see you soon.
[PHONE BEEPS OFF]
God, his tone sucks.
Why do you let him talk to you like that?
It's It's complicated.
He He actually has
some valid reasons to be upset.
Is it worth it?
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
♪♪
[SIGHS]
- Hey.
- Hey.
I, uh, I've been thinking
about some stuff.
Me too.
Um
It It just
It feels like we're falling
back into old shit,
and it was supposed to be
different this time,
and it just
It doesn't feel different.
I agree.
Doesn't feel good.
Yeah.
I've tried really hard
to get past this Evan thing,
but I can't do it.
I gave you so many chances
to tell me the truth.
But you didn't.
- I'm sorry.
- I've done so much
to prove that I care about you.
I took the fall for the fucking letter.
Told all of our friends that I wrote it.
I was I was willing to ruin my
My friendship with Wrigley for you.
I know. And
And I've said thank you for that.
It doesn't go both ways.
I-I don't know if you even care about me.
St
Stephen, that's ridiculous.
Of course, I care about you.
I want to believe you.
But I think you need to prove it.
I'm really hurt.
But I'd be willing to forgive you
under one condition.
What's What's the condition?
You have to tell Bree you fucked Evan.
You do that, we can make it work.
Why? Um
How How would that help anybody?
Because I-I, I don't want there
to be any more lies between us.
That That would That would
ruin my friendship with Bree.
Isn't it already kind of ruined
if you fucked her boyfriend?
Come on.
Stephen, she would be devastated.
She wouldn't forgive me.
She'll be okay.
Eventually. And you and I will be okay.
I want to be able to forgive you.
It's not forgiveness. That's punishment.
And you're not just punishing me.
You're punishing Bree.
No. No, I'm not doing that.
It's that easy of a decision for you?
You You're making me choose
between you and Bree. It's sick.
Well, it's pretty obvious
who you're choosing.
Stephen, you are forcing me to choose.
But if If that is what you need,
then fine.
Yes, I am choosing Bree.
I don't understand you.
Bree would never speak to you again
if she knew what you did.
Meanwhile, I'm here, willing to
forgive you after
everything you've done.
Everything Everything I've done?
Are you fucking kidding me?
What about everything you've done?
You're such a fucking hypocrite.
That you The only reason
that I fucked Evan
is because you left me.
You walked out with Diana.
You You left me
in a fucking coconut bra.
A A coconut bra, okay?
And And that's
That's not even the worst thing.
You treat everybody like shit.
Uh, yes, I have made some mistakes.
I have.
But I have done nothing
even close to the shit that you've done.
Wow, is there more?
Yeah, actually, let's not forget you
leaving Macy alone
in a car fucking dead,
and I'm the one here apologizing?
If you don't want to tell Bree,
maybe I'll tell her myself.
[LAUGHS]
Tell her.
Call her right now.
You won't do it.
I know you won't do it because then you
won't have anything
left to hold over me.
And you won't have anything left
to hold over Evan either.
[DOOR OPENS, SLAMS SHUT]
Hey. I'm still fucking mad at you
about the Lucy thing.
Hey, hey, hey.
I'm I'm sorry, man. I-I told you.
You ruined my relationship with her.
Do you realize that?
Okay, what's going on?
Did something happen?
- Yes, something happened!
- Why don't you take a seat?
I'm not taking a seat!
Why did you have to tell me?
- I thought it was the right thing to do.
- That's ridiculous!
Are you stupid?
Of course it wasn't the right thing to do.
You need to calm the fuck down
or get out of my house!
I'm not gonna talk to you
while you're acting like a lunatic.
Now, what happened with Lucy?
We broke up.
For good.
I couldn't stand
the thought of you two fucking.
I mean, she begged me to forgive her,
but I just couldn't do it.
Look, I'm sorry, man.
I really am.
But it's probably for the best.
You don't need her.
[SIGHS]
Okay?
Okay.
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
So, yeah. It's over again.
Um, but it's fine.
But what happened?
I don't I don't really want
to get into all of it.
It It was mutual.
Wow. Just ended so fast.
Yeah, faster than we thought it would.
How fast did you think it would end?
We thought maybe like spring break.
- Right.
- [BREE] I'm sorry, Lucy.
No, it's
Me too.
I mean, Stephen is evil incarnate,
but I want you to be happy.
I am happy.
Honestly, this This is good.
And I am not letting it ruin my semester.
- Hi.
- Hey.
Come in.
Uh, thanks for coming over.
Yeah, sure.
What's up?
Look
of course, I feel bad about Drew.
I feel awful
that we invited him to campus,
but I've been trying
not to think about it because
it's too overwhelming.
I know.
But I'm sorry for being
so insensitive when we talked.
I can't imagine how hard it's been
for you trying to take care of Wrigley.
Thank you for saying that.
And, um, also,
that other thing that you said.
Oh, we don't have to talk about that.
I'm actually totally fine
with acting like it never happened, so
No, no, I want to talk about it.
When I went home for break,
I thought about you a lot.
I missed you.
[SIGHS]
So much shit happened last semester.
And aside from the Drew thing,
which is terrible,
what I was most upset about
was how things ended with you.
And
And that's weird, right?
Like
[SIGHS] Because it's not like
we were ever best friends or anything.
So, I don't know. Um
I guess maybe that means something.
Yeah.

I hooked up with someone else.
Oh.
I know it's terrible,

Weird how?
[SIGHS] Well, he's way older than me.
He's married.
[GASPS] Okay. Wow.
It's kind of crazy how it started.
It-it was so random.
I was at this Christmas party
him and his wife were hosting
before break.
And he was, like,
flirting with me the whole night.
And I didn't think anything of it
because he's, like, married.
