Tell Me Lies (2022) s03e04 Episode Script

Fix Me Up, Girl

1
[BREE]
This wasn't weird that this happened?
No, we were on drugs.
I was I was walking you home.
Maybe we just don't
mention it to people though.
Yeah, I think that's smart.
That's a good move.
- I'm sorry.
- Why are you sorry?
For having a boyfriend
and making things complicated.
[DIANA] Honestly, I'm still trying to
shake off last semester with Stephen.
[STEPHEN] [ON COMPUTER]
You talked shit to my sister last night
and now you're not gonna
pick up your fucking phone?
You're just a pointless fucking cunt!
How's your sister doing?
Well, she's still terrified of me.
So, you and Molly again, huh?
She's really pretty.
Yeah, she's gorgeous.
You know, I'd stop talking to her
in a second if you told me to.
Do you guys know this girl?
She hooked up with my brother.
She's claiming that
she was, like, drugged.
Are you sure you want me here?
You've actually been
kind of mean to me most of the night.
Maybe you're looking for that.
I saw her coming out of Oliver's office.
Bree, hey, I texted you.
I think what you're doing is really wrong.
You're sleeping
with someone else's husband.
It's gross.
Sadie might be losing her scholarship.
I bet my dad could take care of that.
Thank you so much.
But we're good now.
Yeah, we're good.
Say you lied on tape, or I will tell Bree
you fucked Evan. Your choice.
Why are you doing this?
Because I want to hurt you,
and I don't know how else to do it.
I need to apologize to everyone.
I did it because I wanted attention.
Tell me how fucking pathetic I am.
So I am making this tape
You're fucking nothing.
I know.
To say that I am so sorry.
♪♪
No, next week doesn't work.
I need your next available appointment.
I have some time this afternoon,
actually, between 2 and 4.
[RECEPTIONIST] Unfortunately,
we're all booked up until next week,
but would you like to come in first for
an evaluation to discuss your options?
- There's nothing to discuss.
- Okay, then.
I can go ahead
and pencil you in for the procedure.
Next Tuesday at noon?
Okay, if that's really
the earliest you could do.
Great, it's set.
Hey, how are you doing?
I've been thinking about you.
Being a woman is a prison.
Yeah, totally.
What do you mean?
I can't get in to get this
fucking abortion for eight days.
And they tried to get me
to come in for this evaluation first.
I just want this thing out of me.
Sorry.
I can come with you.
You know, I'm sure
you're going through a lot of like
complicated emotions right now.
It's actually not complicated at all.
I'm honestly just really inconvenienced.
But thanks.
Hey, would you mind
covering for me right now
- for Professor Booker?
- Oh, you're skipping?
Don't judge me.
Evan just texted.
He wants me to come over.
So you're just gonna run over
there for an 11:00 a.m. booty call?
It's cool. We're on the same page.
Okay. Yeah. Sure.
- I got you.
- Thanks.
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING FAINTLY ON RADIO]
I need caffeine.
You wanna hit Flo's on the way to class?
I'm already late for Econ,
and I got a test today,
so I'm kind of stressed.
Yeah, I'm I'm pretty stressed, too.
I'm starting birth control,
and I'm worried it's gonna
like make me feel insane
and make me gain weight.
Wait, so we don't have
to use condoms anymore?
Um, no, we still have to use them.
They don't always work.
I'm not taking any risks.
Okay. I think it might be
a little overkill,
but whatever you think.
It's not overkill.
I mean, someone we
know just got pregnant,
and she used condoms every single time.
Wait, who do we know that got pregnant?
I, I, like, shouldn't say.
Oh, come on.
You can tell me.
Okay, but you can't, like
You can't tell anyone.
I won't.
It's Diana.
Oh.
Oh! Shit!
Yeah, and you really can't tell Stephen.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING FAINTLY]
[CELL PHONE VIBRATES]
Hello?
[ALEX] [OVER PHONE]
Hey. You wanna hang out tonight?
Oh, um
- Yeah. Sure.
- Cool.
I'll text you when
I'm wrapping up my other thing.
Sounds good.
[LINE DISCONNECTS]
- [SIZZLES]
- Ah!
Fuck!
Oh, fuck.
[SIGHS]
[SULLIVAN] Okay, that's it for today.
Book your darkroom sessions for next week.
Slots are filling up.
- See you later.
- See you later.
Bree?
I just wanted to talk to you.
Oh, don't worry. It's good news.
Your work this year has been really great.
- Thank you.
- Every semester,
the faculty chooses a few students
to be part of a special
photography exhibit,
and I would love it
if you were one of them.
Oh, my God. Really?
We just need six stills
from your portfolio by Monday.
- Sound good?
- Yes, no problem.
Thank you so much.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
Let's talk, shall we?
Let go of me. Let go!
[SIGHS] I got your text.
Why exactly did you send me
a photo of you and some girl?
Some girl?
I know about you and Amanda.
That you're fucking her.
She's a freshman. It's disgusting.
Okay.
Okay, I'm just trying to understand
what you're attempting to do here.
Did you, what,
just want a reaction from me?
No, I don't care about that.
Then what is this about?
Or do you even know?
You shouldn't be doing this.
Okay? You shouldn't be allowed to do this.
I told the dean about you.
Really?
Yes, when I found out that you were
doing the same thing with Amanda
and I realized
that you're basically a predator.
When was this?
Your, uh, your talk with the dean?
Yesterday.
What did she say?
She couldn't believe it.
It was really, really bad.
You're probably gonna get fired.
That's really weird, because I had coffee
with the dean this morning.
But I guess firing me
must have slipped her mind.
But, you know, she's a busy woman.
A lot on her plate.
I'm sure she'll get around
to it soon enough.
Are you okay?
You're not doing well?
I'm fine.
- Are you sure?
- Don't look at me like that.
Because I'm worried about you.
- Why?
- Because, Bree, I care about you.
Don't touch me.
But I'm also just
I'm really sad.
- You're sad?
- Mm.
What the fuck are you sad about?
Your behavior.
This. It's just
Honestly, this is not
who I thought you were.
What does that even mean?
It means I didn't realize
you were such a needy person.
- I'm not needy.
- No?
You don't think your insecurity
might be the thing
that drives people away?
I mean, it's not
it's not even your fault.
It's pretty basic psychology.
People who aren't loved enough
during childhood
don't know how to function
in adult relationships.
You know, they seek validation ad nauseam.
They blow through people's boundaries.
They're basically
so desperate for the love
they didn't get as kids
that people have no choice
but to eventually just just leave them.
God
Can you let me out, please?
I'm telling you this
because you need to hear it.
I think you have
a certain image of yourself,
and I don't think it's accurate.
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
[CELL PHONE VIBRATING]
Sadie, hey. How are you?
[SADIE] [ON PHONE] Hey. I'm fine.
I was just calling because
the tuition payment went through.
So, yeah, I should be all good now.
That's great.
That's awesome. Yeah.
Um, how are your classes?
[SADIE] They're okay.
Yeah? How's your lit teacher?
Is he still being a dick?
[SADIE]
Sorry. Um, I can't really do this.
I just wanted to say thank you.
For sure, yeah.
Glad, glad it worked out.
- [SADIE] Bye.
- [LINE DISCONNECTS]
- [WRIGLEY] Um, photography.
- [LAUGHS] Shut the fuck up.
Yeah, Sadie just called.
Everything good?
Yeah.
All good.
Well, uh, hey, there's actually something
I need to talk to you about.
Okay, what is it?
Diana's pregnant.
And it's
Yeah.
But Molly says she already
scheduled an abortion,
so you're good.
Are you fucking kidding me?
When is she doing that?
Uh, I-I don't I don't know.
I could probably find out, though.
Hey, I-I don't think you should be
telling Stephen this.
Why, why wouldn't you tell me?
Isn't this Diana's private business?
No, it's my business, too.
It would
It would be my kid, or-or-or whatever.
Kid?
It's just a clump of cells at this point.
And what, you want to be a dad?
You want to be someone's father?
No, but that's not the point.
She's making a huge decision
without consulting me first.
Consult? I mean, what would
she consult you about?
I don't think she needs your permission.
It's kind of up to her.
Okay, you were fucking four girls
at the same time freshman year,
but now you're a feminist?
I don't I'm not anything.
I just I just think that, you know,
maybe we're not supposed
to have an opinion about this.
[EVAN] I don't know, man.
I'd probably want to know
if I got a girl pregnant.
Thank you.
- What?
- [WRIGLEY] Mm.
It's this whole thing. I
This, this conversation is bullshit.
- Bullshit.
- No, no, no. What's bullshit
is that Diana wasn't gonna tell me.
Let's not talk about this
in front of Pippa.
- Hi.
- Hi.
What's up?
Diana's fucking pregnant.
[LAUGHS] What?
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
- What are you doing here?
- Are you pregnant?
- What are you talking about?
- Don't even. I already know.
And I'm hearing that you already
scheduled an abortion.
- How exactly are you hearing all of this?
- Evan told me.
Because he thought it was
information that I should know.
Fucking Molly.
Cool, so you just
found this out through what?
Like, a creepy game of telephone?
God, you guys all suck.
I just don't understand why
you wouldn't at least tell me.
You don't think I have a right
to be fucking consulted?
No, I don't.
Shouldn't we at least
talk about this
before you make a decision?
There's no decision. It's decided.
Wow, God. Look, I
I know this must be stressful.
You probably feel like there aren't
a lot of people you can talk to, right?
Did you, did you tell your parents?
Did you tell your dad?
I know you guys
are in a bad place right now,
but I bet he'd come around.
This might make things
better for you guys.
He would probably want to help us.
So you want me to have a child
just so you can get back
into my dad's good graces?
No, no, no, no.
That's not what I'm saying.
Yeah, well, my dad and I are fine, okay?
So don't worry about that.
- You are?
- Yes.
And honestly, Stephen,
I am so excited to abort your baby.
It's gonna be the highlight of my year.
I cannot fucking wait.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
- That's it?
- Yeah, that's it.
You can't control me anymore.
Try with someone else.
[TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES]
[TYPING]
Oh. Hey.
- What's up?
- Hey.
I'm just here to grab Pippa.
Oh, she's still not back yet.
Oh, okay. We were supposed
to go to McKinley's, but, uh
I can just, uh,
wait outside until she gets here.
This isn't a women's bathroom. You
can come in and hang till she's back.
Oh.
Okay, so we got
sort of a Beautiful Mind situation
going on here.
Professor Sullivan invited me
to be a part of this photography exhibit,
so I'm trying to figure out
which of these suck the least.
What? That's great!
- Ah!
- Oh.
[SIGHS]
No?
Why aren't you more excited?
No, I am.
Do you want a drink?
- Sure.
- Okay.
[PHONE LINE RINGING]
- [DIANA] [ON PHONE] Hey.
- Hey.
How's your day going?
[DIANA] Um, pretty stressful.
I'm sorry, what's What's going on?
[DIANA] I just
this paper is killing me,
and I have two tests tomorrow.
Yeah, that sounds like a lot.
[DIANA] Do you want to come over?
[LAUGHS] Right now?
[DIANA] Yeah, unless you're busy.
Nope. No, I just have to drop
some stuff at my dorm,
but yeah, I'll, um
Yeah, I'll be right over.
Oh, my God.
I need this guy's entire life story.
This is so good.
- You think so?
- Yeah.
Okay, maybe put that one
in the finalist pile.
I used to love those
Ninja Turtle dudes when I was little.
There's like a million photos of me
as a kid trying to eat them.
It's wild, because any time
I look at those photos of me as a kid,
I'm like, yeah,
I'm the same dummy now
that I was then, just bigger.
I don't have any pictures of me as a kid.
Like, I have no idea
what I was like back then.
Okay.
These are all amazing,
but I think you're missing
something very important.
Really? What?
A photo of me.
Okay.
Stop.
Sure.
Can you please just be serious?
Okay. Sorry.
[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS]
You okay?
Can I ask you something?
You want me to pose naked. Damn me.
Uh, what's up? What's up?
What did Evan used to say about me?
What? What do you mean?
I mean, did he ever complain about me?
Like being too insecure or too needy?
No.
Why?
I
I had a conversation with someone today,
and they told me
that I was a needy person.
And insecure.
Who said that to you?
It doesn't It doesn't matter.
I know I'm not this, like,
insanely confident person or whatever,
but I thought I was
average.
I don't know.
And now I'm worried that
that's how everyone sees me.
I mean, is that how I come off?
Be brutally honest.
No. Definitely not.
I wondered if maybe that's what
drove Evan to cheat on me.
Evan always talked about
how amazing you were.
Bree
Evan is obsessed with you.
He still is.
I mean, we used to
make fun of him for it,
but, um, we stopped
because eventually
it got a little sad.
Really?
Really.
And he knows he's the one
that fucked everything up.
[SNIFFLES]
You know, Drew
he was super into you.
He thought you were like
the most intimidating girl ever.
Intimidating?
Really?
Wait, do people honestly think that
about me, that I'm intimidating?
- Well, I don't think that.
- Yeah, fair.
You're much too small to be intimidating.
That would be ridiculous.
Sure.
[PIPPA] Hi!
Hey!
Um, we were just hanging
until you got back.
- Let's go.
- [SIGHS] Shit.
[LAUGHS]
I just I completely
forgot that we had plans.
I'm so behind on my psych paper.
I was just coming back here
to get a book to go back to the library.
I'm sorry, I'm gonna
have to pull an all-nighter.
Yeah. It's fine. I'm tired anyway.
- [PIPPA] Okay.
- So, okay.
- Love you.
- Yeah, love you.
All right. Bye-bye.
Hey, you forgot your textbook.
Yeah. Durr. Durr.
Okay.
Bye!
- I should probably head out, too.
- Yeah.
Yeah. Okay.
[TENDER MUSIC PLAYING]
- Bye.
- Bye.
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
[GLASSES CLINK]
Yeah. I'll do another Guinness, and, uh
- Hey.
- Hey.
- You want one?
- Um
Yeah, maybe. Yeah.
What, a glass of rosé?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, and your pinkest wine.
And I'll close out, thanks.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
- What's up?
- Uh, nothing.
Nothing, just a guy
I used to date is here.
Or "date" is extreme.
Hang out with, I guess.
You're cool with the two of us
just hanging out, yeah?
Yeah, yeah, I know. I know this is casual.
Yeah, you didn't think this was a date.
Put a whole little outfit on
and everything.
Um, I think the
I think the third full sentence
you said to me was,
"I don't do relationships."
And you asked me to get a drink
after your other plans.
- I
- [LAUGHS]
I think I got it.
Yeah, okay.
[SIGHS]
Um
I was actually kind of surprised
that you called after last time.
Why were you surprised?
I don't know. Um
I wasn't really myself.
[STAMMERS] I didn't, um
I didn't want you to think
I was insane or something.
Look, I don't judge.
Okay?
And I've had people ask me
to do far weirder shit before.
Okay.
Okay.
So, what about you?
- What about me?
- What do you need?
You need me to throw you down
and tell you you're a piece of shit?
I don't need anyone to tell me
I'm a piece of shit.
Well, I think I might actually be one.
Yeah, like genuinely a horrible person.
Yeah? Okay.
You'd You'd probably agree
if you knew me better.
Okay.
Why are you a horrible person?
I've just
done some awful things,
and I've let people trust me
even though they shouldn't.
Give me an example.
Like that guy.
I was a dick to him.
I didn't care about
his feelings, like, at all.
And I know he liked me. A lot.
And I just used him
as a distraction from other stuff.
And I kept doing it
until I didn't need a distraction anymore.
I don't think good people
do that kind of thing.
You should probably
tell him you're sorry then.
[LAUGHS] Yeah.
Yeah, at some point,
I probably do owe him an apology.
No.
You go tell him now.
Uh, I don't
I don't think it's a good time.
- He's on a date with another girl.
- Yeah, I mean, it's up to you.
But if you really felt bad about it,
you would.
I don't know,
maybe you're not really that sorry.
Maybe you like it.
I don't.
Then tell him you're sorry.
Okay.
Hmm.

I know. I-I just wanted
to apologize for being kind of shitty.
Not kind of. I-I was awful to you.
- You were fine, okay?
- [LUCY] No, I wasn't.
I wasn't.
I was really unkind and thoughtless,
and you were so great to me, and

such a good person, and I'm not.

I just want that done, taken care of.
It's Stephen.
He showed up here,

I guess I'm a little freaked out.
He lives in this building.
Whoa, did he, like
Did he, like, threaten you or something?
No, but
I guess I said some things
that I probably shouldn't have.
Well, I'm sure he deserved it.
He's a lunatic.
No, he he's just not someone
who lets things go.
I mean, I know everyone knows
he's a dick, but I'm actually
I'm scared of him.
Do you think I sound crazy?
No.
I think he's a lot scarier
than any of us really realize.
- Can we not talk about him anymore?
- Yeah.
Yeah, of course.

- [DOOR CLOSES]
- [ADVISOR] Hey, Lucy.
- Hey.
- Uh, the dean asked
if you could come to her office.
Oh. What-what's this about?
They wouldn't tell me. I'm just an RA.
But they said it was important.
I'll walk with you.
Hi, Lucy. Please take a seat.
- [SOFTLY] Hey.
- Hey.
What What's going on?
We just wanted to have
a safe and open conversation here.
Mm-hmm.
Caitie, do you want to lead this?
Yeah, um,
so, uh, I'm sure you heard
about my case against Chris Montgomery.
[SOFTLY] Yeah.
Um, last semester, when I reported him,
I didn't have
or the school
couldn't find enough evidence.
But, um, I heard he did
something similar to you.
And it made me think
maybe I should reopen my case.
We could I don't know, it could help.
You know, if you make a report, too,
it could corroborate things.
Chris could finally be held accountable.
S-sorry.
Um, I'm sorry.
I don't
I'm not really sure how you heard that.
Did you Did you say something?
No, everything we discuss
in our meetings is confidential.
I'm-I'm sorry, why Why is Marianne here?
Caitie asked for me to be here.
Yeah, I thought it would help
to have Professor Verena here,
just a faculty member
we both know and, and trust.
Lucy, I just,
I know how hard this process
can be to go through alone.
So I just I wanted all of us to be
here so you felt like extra supported.
- Caitie
- Because I wish I'd felt that.
I'm
you should You should really
do whatever feels right for you, okay?
But I-I
I can't I, I don't want
to be a part of this.
I'm-I'm sorry.
I know this is very difficult.
We're just trying to understand
what really happened.
If there's actual proof
With all due respect,
I think it's, um, up to Lucy
to choose what she wants to do.
I don't think anybody should be pressured
into talking about something
they don't want to.
Um
Sorry, I'm-I'm gonna be late for class.
Can I please leave now?
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
[DOOR OPENS]
Lucy.
- Lucy.
- What?
Listen
I know I'm not your favorite person, okay?
But I truly do care about you.
So if there's anything I can do,
please let me know.
I am not the person
you should be worried about.
You should be worried
about all the girls on campus
who are being traumatized by your husband
who's a fucking creep.
Did you feel guilty, like at all?
You You guys are seriously
damaging people.
I'm truly sorry for everything
you're going through.
[SCOFFS] God!
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
[EXHALES]
- Hey.
- Hey.
I almost called campus police
when you didn't come home last night.
Oh.
Yeah, I'm sorry. I was just
No, I was just, like,
working really late at the library,
and then I crashed at Wrigley's.
[BREE] Um
What the fuck is this?
What?
I just got invited to a group
called "Chris is a Rapist"
and it says that he assaulted
Caitie and Lucy.
Is
Is this real?
Did you know about this?
Shit.
Hey.
What's going on?
Have you heard about this Facebook group?
About Chris and you?
What?
Who, who did this?
I don't know.
Is, is it true?
Lucy just, like,
really didn't know what to say.
I mean, she really,
really didn't want anyone to know,
and she barely even remembered that
night and I'm sure she just doesn't want
to think about this anymore.
Yeah. Yeah, I-I blacked out but
and I don't really remember it.
[BREE] Jesus, Lucy.
I'm so fucking sorry.
- I had no idea.
- It's okay, okay?
It's literally fine.
I don't want to make a big deal out of it.
I'm sorry if I, like, made it harder
for you to talk about.
I just I was so distracted
by all the fucking Oliver bullshit,
and I didn't know that you were dealing
with something like this.
It's really okay, okay?
I was just in the middle
of some homework, so
Okay.
[LUCY] Yeah.
- Don't worry.
- Okay.
[DOOR OPENS]
Thank you.
I never would have
guessed that about Chris.
He seems so boring and harmless.
Yeah.
Makes you realize
how horrible some guys are, like
like full-on secret monsters.
Kind of puts Evan into perspective.
[SIGHS]
[RUBBING HANDS]

[LINE RINGING]
Hey.
Are you around right now?
Hi.
Thank thank you for meeting me.
I just I didn't I didn't know
who else to talk to.
Yeah, I don't really have a lot of time.
Today's kind of crazy for me.
Okay, look, um,
I got called into the dean's office today.
Caitie wants to reopen her case. She
She heard about the stupid
fucking thing I said about Chris,
and she's asking me to file
an official report with her,
and now there's a Facebook group
about Chris being a rapist.
- Yeah, I saw.
- This is all just getting so intense.
And I don't I don't know what to do
or how to make it fucking stop.
I didn't
I didn't mean for this story
to become about me.
I was I was just trying to help Pippa.
And I don't know
if I should just tell the truth,
just admit that I lied.
You absolutely cannot do that.
It'll totally fuck over Caitie
and make you both look insane.
I feel insane.
I can't I can't do this anymore.
I can't stand people feeling bad for
me about something that didn't happen.
Okay, the best thing you can do is just
try and de-escalate the whole situation.
Okay, how do I How do I do that, though?
Don't say anything else to anyone.
Eventually, it'll die on its own.
I told Stephen about the lie.
You what?
He, he basically forced me, okay?
I don't, I don't know how to explain it.
Jesus, Lucy. Okay, honestly,
I don't even want to know,
but I don't think people
will even believe him.
Everyone will just assume
Stephen's starting shit
because he's pissed you guys broke up.
It'll be fine.
[SIGHS] He, um
He, uh He made me admit it.
On tape.
[LAUGHS]
That does not make any fucking sense.
Why would you let Stephen
do something like that?
Because he knows
about something else I did.
Um
Something worse.
Worse than lying about sexual assault?
Kinda.
Has anyone ever told you you have
really bad decision-making skills?
[LAUGHS] Yeah.
Like, you should just stop doing it.
You should just stop making decisions.
Diana, he threatened me.
Okay?
He was being really fucking intense.
It didn't feel like I had a choice.
- You always have a choice.
- No.
With Stephen, there
are only bad choices.
You of all people
should understand that.
You You know how scary he is.
And the thing is, it's not like I
haven't tried to do anything about it.
I tried telling you
the truth about Stephen.
I told you about him leaving Macy.
I told you the truth
and what he's capable of,
and you did not believe me.
What am I supposed to do now?
Nothing.
For once, just do nothing.
I'm sorry, I have to go.

[EMCEE] [OVER SPEAKERS] Okay, y'all.
Let's join this lovely couple

Hey, guys.
How's the night going?
Wow.
- Absolutely not.
- Okay.
Blink twice if you need help.
Okay?
Hi.
Hi.
I-I realize how hard this must be for you.
How hard what is?
Seeing me and Lydia like this.
Especially after what happened
between us this morning.
Oh, no, it's not hard at all.
Honestly, I've been completely validated
by this entire weekend.
You haven't changed for Lydia.
You'll never change for anybody,
and there's something
extremely comforting about that.
- Stephen?
- What?
Can I grab you for a sec?
Yeah, sure.
- What are you doing?
- I was having a conversation.
I can see that. About what?
We were catching up.

- [BARTENDER] Sure.
Thank you.
Having fun?
- Yeah, I am.
- Oh, good.
You and Evan, all these years. Man
You make such a perfect couple, don't you?
And this has been
a really perfect day, hasn't it?
Well, I don't know
that anything is perfect.
I think that people make mistakes.
But I'm not really the kind of person
that would ever let one mistake
ruin everything.
I think that would be
pretty fucking dumb of me, wouldn't it?
All right, I think it's time
to humiliate myself on the dance floor.
- Pardon me, madam.
- Hi.
Do you mind if I dance with my ex?
Of course not.
Isn't that what weddings are for?
How are you holding up?
Fine.
Just pretending that you're the one
I'm still in love with.
Smart. No one will ever know.
