Ginny and Georgia (2021) s03e09 Episode Script

1
Oh my God, oh my God,
oh my God, Georgia's gone.
Do I tell anyone?
Do I tell Ginny?
Five percent battery. Shit.
Did Marcus drink all those bottles
when he was suspended?
Does he have a problem?
He does smoke a lot.
Ugh, I gotta get cozy.
Where are my L.L. Beans?
Do I tell Mom and Dad
about the bottles in the garage? No.
Yeah? No! He'll kill me.
But if he has a problem, then I have
to help. But-- No, he's gonna kill me!
Oh. There this is.
Should I tell Ginny about her mom?
"Hi, Ginny, I was in the garage earlier,
and I saw your mom."
"She stole my brother's bike to escape,
never to be seen again."
Is this gonna destroy Ginny
if her mom just leaves?
How could Georgia do that?
I guess I would too if I thought I was
going to prison for the rest of my life.
I wonder if Ginny likes Bracia
more than me.
I… I have to tell her. I… I have to.
That's what I would want. I'd wanna know.
But maybe Ginny knows already.
What if they're escaping together?
Marcus is probably fine.
I'm just gonna do my homework.
No! I can't just do my homework.
I should call Ginny.
Okay. Okay, okay, okay.
It's okay. No, it's okay.
Um…
Homework, okay. I have that essay
for English I haven't started,
and I also have a test in math.
I have to write the essay,
or get a lot done.
If I don't do it tonight,
I have to do both tomorrow.
Mousse is tomorrow.
I have to focus on that.
I can't have an essay too.
That'd be horrible.
What if Ginny doesn't know
her mom ran away, and no one knows,
and I'm the last person to see her?
Will I get in trouble? Am I breaking
the law by not saying anything?
I break the law. I break legs.
I hope Ginny knows
she can trust me.
Ten percent battery. Ugh! Shit!
Here this is.
Maybe my text was too much
and she's freaking out.
I'll text something innocent.
That way I'm just, like,
leaving myself open to her telling me.
God, that was a stupid thing to say.
"I'm bored."
Like, "I'm bored 'cause my parents
are in a happy marriage,
and no one's on trial
for murdering anyone."
Stupid. I hope she knows
I didn't mean it like that.
That was probably fine. Why hasn't she
texted me back yet? Is she mad at me?
God, Mom would freak out if she saw
all those bottles in the garage.
Where's he even getting all that?
I don't want her to worry.
I don't wanna get him in trouble.
Unless he needs help.
I'm gonna work downstairs.
There's less distractions.
Na-na-na-na-na-na… ♪
Wrong. Everyone I love will die.
Wrong.
Are you ready? ♪
Hey.
Oh God, what?
Nothing. What?
-Nothing.
-God, it's serious. What happened?
Nothing. Everything's great.
Everything's awesome. I love life.
-Max.
-Okay.
If I tell you something,
you actually have to promise me
not to tell Mom or Dad
or Ginny or the police.
Georgia ran away
and she stole your bike.
-I know.
-You know?
Ginny knows too.
And the police.
-G… Georgia's in jail.
-What?
When? How… how do you know?
I was just with Ginny
when she got the call.
You were with Ginny?
Are you guys, like, hanging out again?
No, she just-- She…
saw Paul's message on TV,
and she was upset.
So she called you
to meet up somewhere late at night?
We're not getting back together. I just…
wanna be there for her.
I don't know
what the right thing to do is.
Okay. I thought her and Wolfe were dating.
-Oh, they broke up.
-What? They did?
-Yeah, that's what she told Abby.
-Whoa.
Slow down. Go back 700 steps.
Abby knows that Wolfe
and Ginny broke up and I don't.
Yeah--
-Don't make this about you, Max.
-Okay.
Wait. How… how is she?
Obviously, not good.
I'm surprised she's standing upright
after the last few months.
Marcus?
When you were suspended,
what'd you do all day?
-Nothing, just hung out.
-Did you drink?
No.
God.
Oh, oh ♪
You think the whole world
Is turning around you ♪
Acting so recklessly ♪
Where is your empathy? ♪
You put the chicken in the oven?
I forgot.
Maxine!
I'm sorry, I was doing homework, and…
You're so blind to the truth ♪
Your insecurity is cruel ♪
You justify every excuse ♪
To deny the things that you do ♪
Hey. Where were you? It's late.
Simone.
I'll let you guys talk.
She… wants me to take Georgia's case.
What?
Yeah.
And…
And I told her
I would talk to you.
-What happened to her lawyer?
-Paul pulled him.
I don't like it.
Okay.
You said you needed time to think.
So what? You're just gonna have
some deep contemplation about us
while you represent my ex in court?
You don't even like her.
And no matter what she may or may not
have done, she's still Ginny's mom.
She deserves someone who's invested.
This is a shit position for me
because I am so deeply invested.
And the fact that
you can't see that is a problem.
Do you think she can win?
I'll know more when I see what they have.
Look, I don't understand
why she can't hire someone else.
Why does it have to be you?
I don't know how to tell Ginny
I won't do it.
Sounds like
you already made up your mind.
You heard all that?
Mom needs a lawyer, Dad,
not some crummy state-appointed one.
Your mom can hire one herself.
Mom's given up, Dad.
Simone will care,
more than a random lawyer.
It's personal.
She'll put more into it
because she doesn't wanna lose you.
Look, that's really unfair, Ginny.
I have to do everything I can.
She's my mom. You said it yourself.
And I wanna go back to court.
It's important to me that I'm there.
Can you please let that be my choice?
I'm the cracks in the paint ♪
You're the color that stays ♪
I'm the time that you waste ♪
And I don't know why… ♪
You forgot the units.
LOL, feet.
I can't do this.
-I'm so tired.
-Come on.
We're almost done. Then you get a treat.
-I get a treat?
-Mm-hmm.
Okay. What's my treat?
-A sense of accomplishment?
-No, please no.
Can't it just be like,
I don't know, a cookie or something?
Sorry to interrupt the tutoring.
What, Mom?
I just had
an interesting call with your father.
Apparently, his house was egged
the other night.
Do you know who could've done that?
Anyone from your school?
I don't know anyone who would do
something like that. That's so immature.
-Mmm. Completely immature and petty.
-Yeah.
-And acting out for attention.
-All of it.
Mm-hmm.
So here's the thing,
they have a Ring camera.
There's footage of your cute little face
and your friends' cute little faces
egging the house.
Of course the horse girl got him
to get a Ring camera.
What, then, am I grounded?
No.
If your dad asks, yes.
Finish your homework.
That was really cool of her.
Yeah, that was really weird.
So, um, what just happened?
It was so stupid. My friends and I egged
my dad's house because he deserves it.
No, not that.
Did we almost kiss?
I know I'm not your usual type
because I'm not a massive asshole, but…
I would be down.
Did you wanna kiss me?
Well, I'm not gonna kiss you,
so if you wanna do it…
Lost in time ♪
Late to restart ♪
This world is startling me ♪
Light the way I came to be ♪
Okay, what is it?
You two are not very good
at being stealth.
What's going on?
It's probably gonna be
on the news.
Georgia's in jail.
She tried to escape,
then turned herself back in.
On a related note, uh,
my bike is down at the police station.
If one of you two could,
uh, take me to go pick it up.
She's in jail? How do you know?
He was with Ginny when she got the call.
But don't worry,
they're not getting back together.
What's wrong? You feeling guilty?
Should I go visit her?
I don't know what to do.
To be fair, there's no rule book for when
your neighbor gets accused of murder.
Georgia must be so scared.
Two nineteen!
Get off her!
Get her! Get her!
Kick her ass!
-You're gonna get it, snitch.
-I know who you are.
I'm a huge fan.
-Can I get your autograph?
-Oh.
Oh, maybe later.
Okay.
It's so cool that you're here.
We're all excited that we get
the Mayoress Murderess. Oh.
-Well, I didn't kill anyone.
-Oh.
-No, of course not.
-So…
Although, you know,
sometimes men just need to die.
So, uh, what are you in for?
Stole a car.
-Oh, sure.
-Yeah.
Hey. What's the deal
with the cell phone sandwich?
A sweet girl, a soft curl
All my life… ♪
Max, you're late.
Your brother's waiting for you.
I know. Sorry.
It's Mousse today, so they want us to wear
our pajama pants with our sweatshirts
to show school spirit, but I can't find
the boxers with the red hearts.
I will never understand
how last year you had 27 tardies
and your brother had zero.
You walk together,
you leave at the same time.
I have more people to greet, Mother.
Listen, now that your brother's
back at school,
will you keep an eye out for him?
-Make sure he stays out of trouble.
-Like a narc?
Like a caring sister.
He struggles. Things don't come
as easy to him as they do you.
-Yeah, you keep saying that.
-Max.
No, I will take care of him. Absolutely.
You think he's doing better though, right?
Yeah, totally.
Oh, Mom, um, I actually--
Could I get your opinion on something?
Yeah.
Okay, so you know
how me and Norah and Abby
and Ginny are, like, ridiculously close,
and I love them so much?
I feel like they've kind of been
a bit weird lately,
and I… I wanna talk to them about it.
-No.
-I'm not finished.
I just… I wanna tell them that
it's hurting my feelings a little bit.
-Should I?
-No.
But if I was hurting someone
that I cared about,
I'd wanna know
so I could fix it and make it better.
I know that you think
a conversation would help,
but you want a big talk, and that is not
how Abby and Norah operate, okay?
People are different. Not everyone is you.
Yeah, well, they should be me.
You obsess over things, honey.
Try just letting go.
I don't wanna let it go.
You don't have to be their friend either.
That's the other option.
I wanna be their friend.
I love Ginny so much, and she's
going through a thousand things right now,
and I really wanna be there for her.
Well then,
you need to meet people where they are.
Also, you've been moving these books
all around the room.
None of them have
actually gone into the backpack.
Go easy on Ginny.
She's… going through a lot.
Yeah, I know.
Thank you, O great protector of Ginny.
O noble white knight
who guards her with a steady hand
and a blazing hard-on.
What?
It's good advice.
"Meet people where they are."
Zion sent you?
Ginny asked me to help.
And Zion was on board?
Are you two still datin'?
Why'd you break up?
You.
Me?
Mm-hmm.
So, what, you're doing it
for your deep love of my daughter?
Dress shopping really bonded you.
But that's not why you're here.
You're in love with Zion.
Yes.
I like that you didn't lie to me.
I didn't think that lying
was the way to go.
It's not.
I'll know.
You're fighting two battles.
There's the court of law
and the court of public opinion.
You're currently losing both.
Does Zion love you too?
He says he does.
But you think he's still in love with me?
Yeah.
Twix? Apparently I have fans.
Let's talk strategy.
I'm not winning this.
I've played the game long enough
to know when it's over.
First, you have to win over
the court of public opinion.
-Right now, everyone hates you.
-Interesting start.
Your defense painted you
as an upstanding citizen.
Married to the mayor…
…sweet, naive.
That's wrong.
The other lawyer was nice to me.
Everyone has heard you labeled
a dangerous killer.
They heard about your criminal past.
They heard about your horrible childhood.
We need to own that,
not sugarcoat it.
You're an underdog.
That's our story.
We change the narrative,
we spin it for our benefit.
Everyone loves an underdog.
My past is not something
to be proud of. Trust me.
And then there's
the court of law.
Your lawyer made a case
that Tom's death was
an accident, not a murder.
But I think we shift focus to the wife.
-I'm not putting it on Cynthia.
-Well, it's up to you.
But I'm the one standing
between you
and a lifetime supply of commissary Twix.
Austin.
Hey.
I talked to Mom. She's okay.
You don't have to worry.
I got her a new lawyer.
I'm not worried.
She tried to run. She left us.
She… she came back. She turned herself in.
She gave up on us.
No, she didn't.
Ginny. Hi.
-What have you been telling him?
-The truth.
When things get hard, she runs.
She, uh… she looks after herself.
She came back.
What happened to the lawyer?
Paul stopped paying.
Paul wouldn't do that.
Austin, we're already late.
Why don't you get to class?
You can see your sister later.
Listen, you can take this
or you can leave it,
you're old enough
to come to your own conclusions,
but your mom, she's not a good person.
Is that what you've been telling him?
Austin's happy. He's better off.
He likes living with me.
If I were you, I would cut my losses
and just start fresh.
That's what we're gonna do.
What do you mean?
I'm taking Austin to Michigan.
That's where my parents live.
-They're gonna set me up with a job.
-You're taking him?
We can't stay here.
I mean, even if she gets off,
he's the Mayoress Murderess' son.
It's not good for him.
You and your dad should leave too.
Well, wait-- We can't just leave her.
Why? She almost left you.
She came back.
Are you sure, or did she just get caught?
Is that something
she would lie about?
Mmm.
Look, I have nothing against you.
You're a very sweet little girl.
But there's nothing here for me.
Your mom, she's made it impossible for me
to ever get a job in finance again.
Please… please don't do this. Just think
about Austin. We need each other.
I am thinking about Austin.
-You guys can talk on the phone--
-On the phone? I'm his sister.
Half sister.
You're horrible.
-Hey.
-You hurt my mom.
You're a bad person. I don't want
Austin near you.
You know what? You are growing up to be
just like your mother.
Gil!
It's pepper spray.
I need to run
I'm so behind ♪
I need to do all this shit to get by ♪
I didn't go
I was too high ♪
I don't remember the last time… ♪
Ginny.
Ginny, you okay?
Since when does Abby hang in Red
with your friends?
Is that coffee?
Yeah.
Max, Marcus. Hey.
-Hey.
-Hey.
-Hey, Bakers.
-Hey, Abby.
Look at you with this totally normal
grouping of people you hang out with
all the time.
Uh, you texted me
a lot last night.
-What was up?
-You got those?
Did you just, like, ignore them?
I just had a lot of homework.
I didn't wanna get distracted.
Max, are we going
to Brodie's on the weekend?
Because Press got his ID confiscated,
so he can't buy anything for us.
We have to find somebody who can.
Silver, can you use your fake
to get Abby something?
-Sure.
-Cool, thanks.
-You have a fake?
-Oh, it's not a fake, um…
it's my older sister's ID,
but it's not a big deal.
We look a lot alike.
-You're talking to Press again?
-Mm-mm.
Why can't Abby talk to Press?
Oh, nothing.
I'll see you.
Hey, give me a sip.
No, get your own.
Ginny, hi. Are you okay?
Just-- I can't right now. Just stop.
I don't wanna talk about
my mom or anything.
Your arm's red.
I said I don't wanna talk about it.
But your arm…
Who's excited for Sped English?
Literally no one.
-God.
-Marcus, just a sip.
Hey, whoa. Max, seriously.
What's wrong with you?
You good?
I'm really worried about Marcus.
He's fine. Don't worry.
Since when does Abby hang in Red
with you guys?
I think it's because Tris
and Abby are kind of a thing.
-What?
-I know, right? So cute.
No, Abby doesn't have things with people.
She hates people.
If Abby and Tris were a thing, I'd know.
She'd tell me. She's my best friend.
I don't know. Um…
But I'll see you later?

Iced tea will cool you down ♪
So come and get it right now ♪
Oh, wow, that's looking really nice.
Just, uh, don't sell any
to the Cliffords across the street.
I can't wait until they move or die
and we get someone good in that house.
Mom, that's not nice.
Sweetie, they're not nice.
Max, come here. I wanna talk to you.
…and it's really hot ♪
Lemonade will… ♪
Why don't you ask Marcus if he wants
to help with the lemonade stand?
Because he's a boy.
No, he's your twin.
And that's really special.
You two will always have
to look out for each other.
He kind of needs me, huh?
…hit the spot ♪
Marcus?
We're doing a lemonade stand.
-Do you wanna help?
-Yeah.
Okay, Max.
I didn't know what to wear
to visit my friend in jail.
You nailed it. I like that shirt.
-It was on sale.
-Oh!
So Paul is
definitely out of the picture?
You saw the press conference.
-He didn't look good.
-Mm-mm.
Have you seen Ginny lately?
She's been spending
a lot of time with Marcus.
I don't know if that's good or bad.
It's good.
They help each other.
He'd do anything for Ginny.
-He has a big heart.
-Mm-hmm.
It's too big, I worry. He feels too much.
Max, too. I birthed very feely children.
Yeah.
Have you noticed
if Marcus has been drinkin'?
No. Why?
I've grown up around addicts,
and I think he might have a problem.
No. I don't think he's an addict. He's 16.
-I drank when I was 16.
-Mmm.
Keep an eye on him.
And I need you
to keep an eye on my kids too.
Check in.
Make sure Austin's okay in school
and that he's brushing his teeth.
He doesn't brush the ones in the back.
He just does the first two, and…
…make sure Ginny's having fun.
She takes on so much,
and she's so serious and smart, and…
Just make sure she's being a kid too.
And eating veggies every now and then.
She hates vegetables.
And I don't blame her, they're disgusting,
but osteoporosis runs in my family.
I don't know if she knows that.
She should look out for that. And, uh…
when Ginny goes to prom…
…take lots of pictures, okay?
-I--
-You can still win.
This isn't over.
Yes, it is.
And you know it.
And that's why you came.
Love you.
I love you too.
Ellen, hi.
Hello, Joe.
You didn't get very far.
No.
I didn't.
You bring a cake with a file in it?
Time for that mad dash to Canada?
Yeah.
I don't think
I'm going anywhere anytime soon.
So, what brought you back?
Places are easy to leave,
it's people that are hard.
But sometimes, we're better off
leaving some people behind.
You should forget about me.
You're not…
a bad person.
Thanks for saying that.
What if I am?
What if I should be here?
-What if it's better?
-It's not.
Look, I know what you've been through.
You're not bad.
Look, no matter what else,
you raised two great kids, right?
You did that.
You can't give up yet.
-The visiting hour is now over.
-Um, I'll… I'll see you soon…
when I visit next.
Hey, you-- How are you?
Okay.
Wanna hear something
that might cheer you up?
So my mom was telling me some gossip,
and apparently,
Joe and Cynthia had a thing.
-What?
-Yeah, before Tom, like, died.
Um, but they did it at Blue Farm,
and you worked there.
-And you've probably touched the spot.
-Wait, they slept together?
-They… they had an affair?
-I know, right?
Ugh.
Oh, hello, you.
How was your study date with Tris?
Did you work on your chemistry?
I hate you so much.
-I'm not gonna throw it up.
-Good.
-Don't.
-You guys are so dramatic.
Who do you think you are, Maxine?
Yeah?
What were we talking about?
Uh…
Just some English class stuff.
Okay.
Mmm! It's really good.
Oh, also, by the way,
my dad caught us
egging his house on camera,
and our fairy disguises
didn't actually disguise us at all.
What?
Oh. Um…
My dad moved in with his girlfriend,
so we egged his house.
Oh, um… We hate her, right?
-Allie?
-Anna.
I met her. She's fine.
I mean, obviously, we… we hate her.
She's… she's fine.
When did you meet her?
Um… We had dinner.
When did you guys egg John's house?
That was the other night.
I think you had, uh--
-You probably had rehearsal or something.
-Mmm.
In fairy makeup?
Sounds fun.
Were there wigs?
Look, we just…
…we didn't wanna tell you
because we didn't want you
to feel left out.
But you did leave me out.
Are you guys still coming to Mousse?
-Yeah.
-Obviously.
-Oh my God, of course.
-Mmm.
Good. Thanks.
And, um… there are no more secrets
you're all keeping from me?
Good job, Marky,
but you need an even number of lemons.
Okay.
Hi!
How's it going?
-Hi, Mom!
-Hi!
Ooh, I would love some lemonade.
Oh, uh, he's shy, but I can help you.
Would you like a regular or a pink?
A pink, please.
-Hey, Bev.
-Hi!
Thank you. Mmm.
Mmm. Mmm!
Oh wow, this is great.
Your stand's gonna be a hit.
Hey. I'm parched.

No. I saw the bottles in the garage.
Yeah, so?
Come on, Marcus. Do you have a problem?

Uh-- How did you get a cell phone?
A bunch of girls wanted my autograph,
so I traded that for coffee
to give to Beth in Block C,
who talks to the kitchen girls,
who talk to Block D, who--
Okay, you gotta get rid of the phone.
I've been thinking about what you said,
and you're right.
Everyone's been telling my story but me.
They don't know.
I'd like to see anyone in that court
raise two kids as a teenager.
No high school diploma, no parents,
no money, nothing.
And I did it.
They're good kids. I did that.
I should be rewarded.
I should get a goddamn medal.
Uh, let's focus
on keeping you out of prison,
then we'll work on getting you
your Nobel Peace Prize, okay?
They're all talking about me.
I wanna talk back.
I wanna get up on the stand.
Is it a bad idea?
It's not a good idea.
I, uh… I don't advise it.
You sound different.
What changed?
You read the case files?

You said you wouldn't lie to me.
Don't lie to me now.
Do I have an ice cube's shot in hell
of winning this?
I think you still have a shot.
Okay.
Yeah.
-Georgia--
-Hey, Simone.
Zion doesn't love me anymore.
He did for a long time,
but we didn't work for a reason.
How's it going?
Um…
Not great.
I knew this was a bad idea,
you getting involved.
I'm a criminal defense lawyer
for one of the top law firms,
and you never even asked my take once.
Do you know how hard it was
just sitting back
and trying not to overstep?
And yeah, it scares me…
that she's always gonna come first.
That I'll never have
as much of you as she has.
If we're
gonna really be together…
I need to be the first person
you come to. I need to be in it.
I'm doing this because Ginny asked me,
but it should have been you.
Zion, I love you.
I know you're someone that I need ♪
How come you're forever gone to sleep? ♪
How are we ever gonna survive this?
I wish I had fought for more things,
but I wanna fight for you.
Listen, I get it now. I get it.
She's…
…she's something.
Mmm.
I think I might even like her.
But I just lied to her.
She's not getting out.
I saw the evidence.
It is really medically clear
that he was murdered.
There were two adults in that house,
and the jury has already heard
that one of them is a serial killer.
And Cynthia's come off very sympathetic.
Do you think Ginny will ever forgive me
if I can't help her mom?
Ginny. Hi.
I just came home to change.
Two of my friends are the stars
of the musical tonight, so…
How's it going?
-Good.
-Uh… Mm-hmm.
It's good.
Yeah.
Ugh. You are gonna do so great.
Thanks.
Aren't Abby and Tris so cute?
Yes.
Oh, it's so nice to finally see Abby
just like someone.
So they are a thing?
Look… she just didn't want us to tell you.
But why?
-I feel so left out.
-You're not.
Is that an ANG text thread?
It-- We just made it so that we could,
you know, share photos from the egging.
What does it say?
It's just Abby asking if Ginny's coming.
Ginny's not here?
How's my little starlet doing?
-Oh, you know.
-Yeah?
Just like I have to go out on stage
and pretend everything's okay
when nothing's okay,
which should come natural to me
because of all the practice I have
from every single day.
Yes! That's the spirit! Show must go on.

Okay.
All right, Mom, Joe and Cynthia
were having an affair while Tom was alive.
You can use that.
It would make Cynthia look
really guilty, and--
Oh my God, you knew.
But then, why? Why haven't you used that?
Because I can't do that to her.
Now you have a conscience?
I don't believe you.
You make all these decisions

You-- You always want me

I'm doing that.
Gil's gonna take Austin.

Love is not giving up.
