YOU (2018) s05e09 Episode Script

1
[Joe] Previously on You…
[Joe] Came down to
either Reagan or Maddie.
She didn't have to die, though.
Wait, you can't kill him!
We tried, Maddie.
No! Joe, he's gonna
break, I swear!
You have my word. I
won't say anything.
- Where is my son?!
- You're not fit to care for Henry.
- Dad!
- I'm gonna see you soon. I love you.
Stop making excuses.
[softly] Do something.
It's this nagging feeling I
have that he knows something.
- Nadia.
- [shrieking]
[Joe] Tell them all about me.
No one's gonna believe you.
[Kate] Hi, Nadia. I
want to make this right.
- What are you saying?
- [Kate] I see it now.
We have to fucking kill him.
- [Bronte] What Joe did wasn't murder.
- [Bronte shrieks]
It was self-defense.
You fucking saved Joe?
He saved me, Dom.
Don't forget to leave your key.
- It's Louise, right?
- What? [gasps]
[Dane grunting] No, no!
I have something for you.
Joe, what is this?
What if I killed everyone
who tried to hurt you?
What if it's enough for
me that you want to?
Who are you?
I'm fucking Bronte. And
I see you, Joe Goldberg.
- ["Picture You" by Chappell Roan playing]
- Draw the blinds ♪
Light every candle ♪
Slip off my pretty dress… ♪
[Joe] So, this is what it feels
like to know you're truly loved.
To feel it in every
bone of your body.
Do you picture me
like I picture you? ♪
If you could be anywhere else in the
world right now, where would you be?
[chuckles softly]
Are we leaving?
What if we did?
I mean, is there anything here
that's really worth staying for?
Come on. Anywhere in the world.
- [song fades]
- [distant horns honking]
Honestly? Don't laugh.
Yeah.
A castle.
- Oh, a castle?
- [chuckling]
Oh, just a… Oh, a castle.
Is that all? Just a castle.
A big, mossy castle in Ireland
where I write gothic
fiction by a roaring fire.
Come on. [inhales] Close
your eyes. Imagine it.
All right. [exhales deeply]
Am I there too?
Well, of course. I mean, Ezra's
not going to write himself.
And, uh… what about Henry?
Can he come?
He's your kid. Of
course he can come.
What's the latest with custody?
My lawyer's still working on getting
the temporary custody order reversed.
It'll happen.
- Hmm.
- Good will prevail.
- [closes laptop]
- [Bronte] Um…
- I could use a coffee.
- Okay.
Wanna go for a walk?
Yeah. [sputters]
Is your ankle okay?
Yeah. Let's take her for a spin.
I'm gonna go get cleaned up.
[footsteps receding]
[Joe] Our future's within reach.
But it can't begin so long as my fate's
in the hands of the fucking Lockwoods.
[suspenseful music playing]
Which is why I've taken
steps to break the chains.
- Harrison…
- [keypad beeping]
That sanctimonious boy scout was
going to turn me in eventually.
[beeping]
It's a shame he couldn't fully let
go of Reagan after killing her.
Kept her teeth as a memento.
[reporter] Harrison Jacobs has been
arrested for the murder of his wife,
Reagan Lockwood-Jacobs. In an
unbelievable turn of events,
her twin sister, Madison Lockwood,
has allegedly been impersonating her
and has been arrested for
conspiracy to commit murder.
[Joe] With Maddie in trouble,
it's only a matter of time before
Kate and Henry return to New York.
She's turned off location
tracking on all of her devices
to keep me from
knowing where she is.
But she missed one.
Sure enough, like clockwork, she's
back in New York to play the hero.
It's hard to look like a fit mother when
you're embroiled in a murder scandal.
Which means
it won't be long now
until you, me and Henry can
begin our future together.
[soft music playing]
A little fast, maybe. But
why wait when you know?
[gentle music playing]
[music fades]
- [Maddie on phone] Why would Joe do this?
- Maddie, please, calm down.
Harrison and I promised
we wouldn't say anything
and he betrayed us!
Katie, we have to do something.
This is a recorded line.
He's trying to remove
himself from the narrative
when he should be
taking the fall.
Maddie, stop talking.
I'm sending our people
to bail you both out.
Just please don't say another
word until our lawyers get there.
[sobbing] Oh! Please
get them here quickly.
[softly] Fucking hell.
- [door opens]
- [footsteps approaching]
The teeth were a great move. The
police are going to love that story.
The sister and the
husband having an affair,
killed the wife, open and shut.
He's very smart. You just have to hope he
takes the bait and tracks your earbuds.
[Kate] He will.
Your hitman better
get this job done.
- I'm calling it off. [exhales]
- What? Why?
If Joe dies, my sister
and Harrison go to prison.
I need him to confess to
planting those fucking teeth.
Oh, my God. [sighs, sputters] When were
you planning on telling me about this?
I'm telling you now. We will kill
him, I just need his confession first.
You cannot start getting cute
about killing Joe Goldberg.
This is how everything goes bad.
How do you plan on
getting a confession?
I will tell him… [sighs]
…if he does, we will let him go.
[suspenseful music playing]
Let him go from where?
[music fades]
[mellow music playing]
[distant siren wailing]
- [birds chirping]
- [indistinct chatter]
- Sure you don't need my help?
- It's actually feeling pretty good.
[Joe] All right.
How's your arm?
Ah, I used to slip up and cut
myself unbinding books all the time.
Yeah, and you couldn't afford
a doctor, I know. But now?
- I can stitch a book. I can stitch a cut.
- [laughs]
I promise you it's
fine. [chuckles] Really.
If you say so.
So how are you feeling about
everything with your sister-in-law?
I mean, she was always weird.
I kind of knew that she was having an
affair with her sister's husband, but…
- But this…
- It's so sick.
She helped kill her twin,
- and then basically wore her skin.
- This is the thing about the Lockwoods.
People at their level of wealth,
they exist in a different reality.
The human life
just matters less.
Even Kate, she makes a big show
with all the charity stuff,
but I've seen her be careless
with innocent kids' lives
just to make money.
She made me think that she
felt guilty about her past.
And that she wanted
me to be better.
But when push came to shove,
and she needed somebody gone…
[soft music playing]
She was another person
who made you prove your
love through killing.
Joe, I'm so sorry.
- Look, if you want to talk about it, I
- [cell phone vibrating]
- Sorry.
- [softly] It's okay.
Oh.
Oh, shit. [chuckles softly]
- What? What is it?
- [Bronte] Um…
An email from Alyssa Strom
at Stonefire Publishing.
She wants to meet
me this afternoon.
- Bronte, that's amazing!
- I don't know how she got my info.
Well, I… I mean, I might have
made a call or two or three.
You sneaky, little
shit. [inhales sharply]
Well, I don't know. What if it's
just a courtesy meeting and
Then you get a free coffee.
Don't convince yourself
you don't deserve it.
You are one of a kind.
Who could say no to you?
When you get that book deal,
you'll need a place to write.
Where was your castle again?
Was it Ireland? Right?
Ireland… mossy castle for sale.
[chuckles] Shut up.
Oh, oh, oh. Look
here. Okay. All right.
County, Cork, walled garden.
Oh, sixty acres of woodlands.
I don't know. Prices aren't that
bad. What do you think? Should we?
[chuckles] Fuck off.
I'm serious.
There's no way your wife
hasn't cut you off by now.
I don't need her.
I have an account.
It's part of the extensive negotiation
process that was marrying Kate Lockwood.
Give me one second. I am
going to get you that castle.
[soft music continues]
- [chuckles]
- [grunts]
[line ringing]
Hi, Britta. Yeah,
this is Joe Goldberg.
I'm about to make a big
purchase. So I need your…
- [tense music playing]
- What?
[Joe] Fucking Kate.
Okay. Then… Then
what's the point of…
[Joe] No, she didn't.
Yeah, that's fine. Okay.
All right. Thank you.
What?
She emptied it out.
Probably some loophole she knows about
because she knows rich people secrets
and I've always
been a pretender.
I didn't expect you
to get me a castle.
Yeah, I know. I know.
It's gonna be fine.
I have a secret stash of cash at Mooney's.
Preparing for something like this.
- [suspenseful music playing]
- [clanging]
- The hell?
- [lock clanging]
This isn't my lock.
Oh, my God, Joe.
What the fuck? This
is not my lock.
Look.
[Joe] Shit.
There's no way this is legal.
This has to be Kate.
Technically, Lockwood
Corp owns this building.
Cheap shot. You think she locked
us out of the apartment too?
[gasps]
Fuck.
[rattling]
What do we do now? Do you think
this could be about custody?
[Joe] Of course
that's what this is.
What, they take your money away?
Make it so you have no
place for your kid to stay?
What can I do? What can I
do to help you right now?
No, nothing. I don't
want you to worry.
Go and nail that publisher meeting.
I'll figure out how to reverse this.
Hey, we'll always take
care of each other, right?
Right. [clicks tongue]
Right. Okay.
Wish me luck.
[Joe] I'm sick of the games.
If Kate wants to resort to
destroying my life to keep my son,
then I have no choice.
She has to die.
[suspenseful music
intensifies, fades]
[Kate sighs] Here.
This is for you.
A letter of resignation?
Where are you going?
Well, I'm already an absentee CEO.
I might as well make it official.
"In my place, I would
like to appoint…
Theodore Hayes as the new CEO
of T.R. Lockwood Corporation."
Can you really just do that?
But what about the board?
I put out some feelers.
And they're not just
enthusiastic, they are relieved.
They like the idea of having a Lockwood
at the head of the family company.
And they're so grateful that
it's not any of the rest of us.
Kate, I am not qualified
to run a gigantic company.
Yes, you are.
Teddy, you're shrewd.
You're political.
You've been shadowing the
CEO for the last three years.
Even if all of that is true
None of it will fall back
on you. I promise you.
[inhales]
Why am I getting this weird
sense of finality from you?
[pensive music playing]
Look at me.
Are you okay?
No.
[inhales] But I will be.
[inhales]
Please think about this. Teddy,
you would be a great CEO.
[Teddy sighs]
I love you.
I love you too.
- [birds chirping]
- [indistinct chatter]
- [music fades]
- [cell phone vibrating]
Hey, you.
[Bronte] Hey, uh,
- so I did the meeting.
- And?
She told me that they want
me to write our story.
Of course they do. It's the most
romantic fucking story ever.
Who wouldn't want to live
vicariously through us?
[sighs] Well, you know that I would prefer
to just continue to write my dark romance.
But maybe it's, like,
"grab this opportunity"
and then… [exhales]
…they'll be begging me
for my next book, right?
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
[inhales deeply] Um…
Well, I'll… I'll tell
them that I'm in.
[Joe] Great.
Which I… I guess means I have
an honest-to-God book deal.
- [laughs] I'm so proud of you, Bronte.
- [laughs]
- That is incredible.
- But what about my stuff?
My laptop's in the apartment
with all my writing on it.
Oh, don't worry, I'm working on that.
But we need to celebrate tonight.
I'll call you back, okay?
[suspenseful music playing]
[Joe] But first,
killing a billionaire,
let alone your wife.
Plenty of ways for
this to go wrong.
I'll have to choose
my moment wisely.
[suspenseful music continues]
[door closes]
[Joe] What the fuck? A decoy?
[dramatic music plays]
[music fades]
[woman, distantly] "Her body was
limp. Eyes half open and unfocused."
"'What have you done
to me?' Ella mouthed."
"He would make her
immortal, he knew."
[louder] "Turn her into a
vampire in that moment…"
[Joe] What the…
"…bleeding on the
floor." Bloody hell.
[Joe] Is that…
- A vampire romance?
- [Joe] Nadia?
- I'm embarrassed for you.
- [Joe] How?
[Kate] I knew you couldn't
resist following me.
[softly] God, you're
so predictable.
[Joe exhales]
[music fades]
I don't think he's happy
to see us together.
No, I think he's just
realizing he's fucked.
Uh, this is a new low,
even for you, Kate.
Sending one of your
dad's men after me.
Well, you never did like
doing your own dirty work.
The dirty work's
not finished yet.
[Nadia] Looking for
that hidden key?
- [tense music playing]
- Yeah, we've got that.
[Joe] Shit.
[Nadia] Very clever, Joe.
Oh, and, uh, I found
this in your pocket.
- Nadia, an engagement ring.
- [Nadia chuckles]
It's fucking unbelievable.
What do you want from me?
[inhales] Here's how
this is going to go.
You'll record a confession
to framing Harrison
for my sister's murder.
If you do that, we'll let you go to an
island with no extradition treaties.
It's all been arranged.
New documentation, travel.
You can start again.
[Joe] I have nothing to confess.
This is all her fault, exploiting
my demons for her own gain.
And if I refuse?
Well, then we'll chemically
suffocate you. Hmm.
We'll start a carbon monoxide
leak in that boiler there.
We'll make it look like
you killed yourself, so…
See, all that Agatha Christie is really
coming in handy now, isn't it, eh?
Professor Moore.
- [tense music continues]
- [cell phone vibrates]
I'll be back. Will you be okay?
Yeah.
[footsteps ascending stairs]
[lock clicking]
[suspenseful music playing]
Fuck your eviction.
[sighs]
- [Kate] Hello.
- [gasps]
Joe isn't here,
which I'm guessing you know,
seeing as you locked him out.
It didn't stop you, I see.
What do you want?
I just wanted to meet you.
Look, I never wanted to be,
like, the other woman, or
I don't know what it is about Joe
that just makes you forget yourself.
Maybe you can relate.
You can skip the
mind games, okay?
From where I'm standing, you've
forgotten the reason you went after Joe.
Your friend, Guinevere Beck.
You really think
he didn't kill her?
Well, of course
you'd think that.
Oh, it's so easy to dismiss me as
the bitter ex-wife, I know. But…
I think you're
smarter than that.
You do know he killed
a lot of people.
You knew too. And
you married him.
Yeah.
But he lied about the
extent of what he'd done.
He told me he wanted to change.
And yet when things got hard,
you asked him to kill for you.
Well, he killed for you
too, and you defended him.
That was self-defense. I
didn't ask him to do that.
And he knows he has
nothing to prove to me.
I love him for who he is.
I've been where you are.
Yeah.
But I'm not a hypocrite.
[chuckling] No,
of course not. No.
You've got it all figured out.
[cell phone vibrates]
We're done here. You
can take what you want,
but if you're not gone from
here in the next ten minutes,
I will call the police
on you for trespassing.
- [footsteps receding]
- [exhales sharply]
[music fades]
[Joe] Can I have
some water, please?
Fuck off, Joe.
What did Kate say to
make you want to do this?
She said, "I'm getting
you out of prison."
That's pretty compelling.
[laughing]
I never would have been able to
put you in there without her.
I know what you're doing.
You're trying to sow division.
Yeah, it's not going to work.
She's thrown you to the
wolves once already.
You really think
you can trust her?
Kate's a means to an end.
What end?
Yes, Kate got me out.
But it's not enough.
Confess to Rhys' murder so the whole
world knows I am fucking innocent.
[Joe] Poor Nadia.
It's sad what's happened to her, but
it was a different man who did that.
I can't.
I had dreams before
I met you, Joe.
[pensive music playing]
I was going to be the first
published author in my family.
Eddie and I were supposed
to have this tortured…
[inhales] …university
love affair
that could have turned into…
Well, we'll never know.
Because you killed him.
And then you took away my voice.
My family have spent all their money
on my appeals, but my mum… [inhales]
My mum can't understand why I
never spoke in my own defense.
And I tell her, I tell her that I'm afraid
of you and that you'll hurt our family.
But sometimes… in
my darkest moments…
I think my own mother might
believe I'm a murderer.
The pain of being looked at sideways
by your own mother is excruciating.
I'm so sorry, Nadia.
[groans] No. Oh, no, no,
no, no, no. Don't do that.
Don't try and relate to me.
You and I are nothing alike.
You know, it's funny.
Because my whole life
would be so much easier
if you just confessed, right?
[Joe sighs]
But there's part of me that knows
that you are too fucking delusional
to own anything
that you've done.
So I'm hoping that you won't.
Because then I
can watch you die.
- [door opens]
- You don't wanna do that.
- [footsteps descending stairs]
- Killing someone in this cage haunts you.
[sighing] Oh, he's good. You
could almost believe his bullshit.
[ominous music playing]
[Nadia sighs]
Does Marienne Bellamy
ever haunt you?
No, how could you… Marienne was…
I know you tried to kill her.
[Joe] I didn't… Wait. "Tried"?
[footsteps approaching]
[dramatic music playing]
[exhales sharply]
You should have
killed me better, Joe.
[music fades]
- [Joe] What?
- [tense music playing]
[Marienne breathes deeply]
[Joe] Impossible.
You died.
I saw you.
I held you.
Yeah, we fooled you.
When Nadia told me they
were going to trap you…
[Marienne breathing shakily]
Well, I had to
see it for myself.
Give them what they want, Joe.
It's over.
I don't care what brought you
here. I'm so glad you're alive.
[chuckles] That's what
you're going with?
Oh, I wasn't sure what Joe
I was going to get today.
[Joe] I understand why
you would say that.
Listen to me, in London, I
was not in my right mind.
But you got out.
In spite of you.
Marienne, the man who locked you in
that cage, that's not the real me.
I healed. You don't have
to be afraid anymore.
[seething] Fuck off.
[Joe] All I ever wanted was to help
you, do you remember? Madre Linda?
I kept you sober, right?
I made sure you got custody of your
daughter even after the arrests.
Your record, the time you drove high
with your baby in the back seat.
You almost killed her.
[breath trembling]
But because of me, you put
all of that in the past.
I made you better
because I loved you!
No!
You've destroyed me,
Joe. [breathing shakily]
[sighs sharply]
[scoffing] You… You want
to talk about Juliette?
You know she's 14 now.
And I watch her move through
the world so fearlessly.
She sneaks out, she goes
to concerts with boys,
she resents how protective I am.
It's because every time
she walks out that door,
I am terrified that she's
going to meet someone like you.
[Marienne breathing heavily]
You fucking kidnapped
me. You drugged me. You…
You broke my arm and
starved me. [sputters]
You kept me in this
fucking cage for weeks.
You are not a white knight,
Joe. [breathing heavily]
You are a fucking abuser.
[contemplative music playing]
I saved you.
I've spent my entire life
saving women like
you from abusive men.
No matter what you do,
you are going to
fucking die in here!
[footsteps receding]
- [line ringing]
- [music fades]
Come on, answer. [exhales]
Joe, I, uh… I broke
into the apartment
and your scary-ass wife
was there, and… [inhales]
Uh, whatever, I'm leaving now. I
just wanted to know where you were.
And, um, call me back.
[suspenseful music playing]
[inhales, sighs]
[breathes deeply]
[lock clicks]
- [door creaks]
- [shop bell tinkling]
[Marienne breathing heavily]
[shop bell tinkling]
You're Bronte, right?
[music fades]
You're alive.
- Hmm.
- My friends and I, we looked for you.
[sputters] What
are you doing here?
Do you prefer Bronte or
do you prefer Louise?
[hesitating]
I'm actually not sure.
[chuckles softly]
You know about me?
Yeah, my daughter, she watches
a lot of TikTok. [inhales]
And we…
We have a mutual interest.
[Marienne sighs]
Are you here with Kate Lockwood?
[footsteps receding]
Men like Joe, they…
They really catch you
off guard, don't they?
Yeah, I don't want to
Even when you think
you have all the facts.
[inhales]
Even when you think your
hard-fought instincts are so good.
Even though a voice in the back
of your mind is… whispering.
[pensive music playing]
Telling you, "Don't be
fooled by his smile."
"It's all too good to be true."
"The way he sees you."
"The way he loves you."
"Even when you don't
love yourself."
"Don't believe it when he tells
you he'll take care of you."
"Definitely don't assume the best
when he says he'll keep you safe."
You ignore that voice
because it feels
so good to love him
and be loved by him.
Like it's you and him
against the world.
[pensive music continues]
You know what bad looks
like. You know better.
And when the bad things happen,
you have to believe they're
not actually bad, right?
Because if you got
fooled by this guy,
you are not as smart as
you thought you were.
You're one of those women.
You know, the ones you, deep
down, think you're smarter than.
It can't be you.
But he's convinced
you that you need him.
And he's wormed
himself so, so deep
you don't know whether
you are Bronte,
or Louise, or Marienne.
[Bronte breathing shakily]
Or Beck.
Or none of those.
- Or nothing.
- [gasps]
[sobs] I…
I can't
Listen to what people
are telling you?
Don't forget what brought
you here in the first place.
I have to go.
[footsteps receding]
You're not stupid.
[breathing shakily]
And as long as you are alive,
it's not too late.
[shop bell tinkling]
[door closes]
You never were planning on
letting me go, were you?
[music fades]
Marienne was upset. She was
just trying to scare you.
I can tell when you're lying. How
about you? You gonna lie to me too?
[Nadia] Hmm.
He's got us.
So we may as well kill him now.
You really think the police are
gonna buy this as a suicide?
You're both gonna go to prison.
I'm prepared for the
consequences, whatever happens.
[Joe sighs]
- What does that mean?
- It means if I go down for this,
Henry goes back to his
dads in Madre Linda.
It's already been arranged.
Oh, it's already arranged?
Oh, it's already arranged!
[laughs hysterically]
Oh, it's already been arranged!
You always have a fucking
awful plan, don't you?
You know, I've made
a lot of mistakes.
But marrying you,
bringing you into Henry's life
is the worst thing I ever did.
- Your words mean nothing…
- You're a terrible partner.
- …because you are nothing.
- A pathetic excuse for a mother.
Anything bad that happens to Henry
in his life will be your fault!
- [Nadia] Enough!
- [tense music playing]
No! Nadia.
All right. All right,
come on! [bangs door]
- Open the door.
- [Kate] No.
- Open the door, Kate!
- What are you doing? We have a plan.
Fuck the carbon monoxide! He
doesn't deserve a peaceful death!
This has to look like a suicide.
- Make it look like he shot himself.
- We're not shooting him!
- Get out the fucking way, Kate!
- No.
[music fades]
How the fuck did you get a gun?
It's shockingly easy in America
if you look in the right place.
I wanted a backup plan.
- [Kate] You could've been caught.
- What is going on?
Nadia wants to shoot Joe.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Marienne] Oh.
[sinister music playing]
[groans softly]
[blade scrapes]
[Joe groaning] Oh!
[Bronte] How's your arm?
Ah, I used to slip up and cut
myself unbinding books all the time.
[groaning]
[winces]
[breathing heavily]
[flesh squelching]
I am sorry that I lost it down there,
but Nadia, no, you can't kill Joe.
Bronte was here.
Fuck! I tried to scare
her away… [sputters]
- [inhales] You let her leave?
- Was I supposed to restrain her, Kate?
No, I… I talked to her. I might've
gotten through. I don't know.
She could be calling the police.
If we want Joe to die,
it needs to happen now.
It's not like we
can turn him in.
When has the justice system ever
been on either of our sides?
I'll do it.
I will kill him. Alone.
Marienne, you have
been through so much.
And you, Nadia, if… if we fail in
making this look like a suicide,
then you go back to prison and this
time there's no way you're getting out.
I have a say. This is my life!
It is, and you
deserve to live it!
I've been preparing for this.
[sputters] I didn't
even realize.
This… This is penance for
everything I've been complicit in.
[pensive music playing]
If I get caught, I'll tell
the police I acted alone.
Wait, no, what?
What about Henry?
He deserves to live
with Dante and Lansing.
- You know them. You know it's true.
- Okay.
Will you make sure he adjusts?
[softly] I promise I will.
Please, go, go. I… I…
I will get this done.
[suspenseful music playing]
[Nadia sighs]
[grunts softly]
[pats shoulder]
[line ringing]
[Dominique on cell phone]
You got my voicemail
God. [sniffles] Come on.
- [breathing heavily]
- [line ringing]
[Dominique] You got my voicemail.
Leave a message, maybe I'll hear it.
- [suspenseful music playing]
- [cell phone vibrates]
- Teddy?
- Where are you?
How'd you get out of jail?
Where's Katie?
[breathing heavily]
She won't pick up
her fucking phone
and she told me she was
gonna handle everything.
I don't know where
Kate is. What happened?
[sobbing] Harrison, he
confessed to Reagan's murder.
And he told the police that he
acted alone so they would let me go.
He doesn't deserve any of this.
This is all Joe's fucking fault.
He ruined everything and he's
gonna fucking pay for it.
Okay, just tell me where you
are, we'll come and pick you up.
We have to burn it down, Teddy.
Maddie? What does that mean?
- [Maddie breathing heavily]
- [Teddy] Maddie?
[suspenseful music continues]
You missed a key.
- [dramatic music playing]
- [both grunting]
[Kate grunting]
- [Kate] No.
- [gun fires]
- [both grunting]
- Joe, no.
No. Please. [grunting]
[Joe growls]
[Kate groans, gasps]
Oh, fuck. [groaning]
- [grunts]
- [thuds]
- [dramatic music continues]
- [panting]
[Maddie] Boo-Boo.
[Joe] Maddie.
- [Maddie] Are you down there?
- [hammer clatters]
[suspenseful music playing]
[Joe] Maddie.
[clangs]
- Maddie. [chuckling]
- [gasps]
Oh, my God. Oh, my God, Boo-Boo,
what the fuck happened to your face?
There was an accident.
It was a really bad
accident. Just let me out.
Tell me why you framed Harrison.
Open the door. We can
talk. I'll tell you.
[chuckling] Oh, my God.
[inhales] I trusted you.
You're right.
I took advantage of you.
I shouldn't have done
that, but I can undo it.
If you let me out.
I think you've done enough, Joe.
- [paper rustling]
- [bottle clinks]
What… What is that?
What are you gonna do?
What are you doing?
Whoa, hey! Maddie! Kate is
down here! Kate's down here!
[Maddie] I don't believe you!
- Maddie? Maddie! Maddie, wait! Maddie!
- [grunting]
I am your fucking Boo-Boo!
- Bye, books.
- Maddie, stop. Please! I'm sorry!
- I am sorry! Maddie!
- [gate clanging]
[panting]
[dramatic music playing]
[exhales]
[grunts]
Burn in hell.
[grunts]
[dramatic music continues]
[flames crackling]
[exhales]
[Joe] Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
Fuck. Kate's phone.
Where the hell is she?
- [clangs]
- [thuds]
- [Kate exhales]
- [hammer clatters]
[dramatic music intensifies]
[groaning]
[music fades]
[line ringing]
[Dominique] You got my voicemail. Leave
a message. Maybe I'll hear it. Bye.
[beeps]
Hey, Dom, it's me. Um…
Look, I know you don't want
to hear from me right now.
I get it. Um… [sniffles]
I just want to say,
uh, I am so sorry.
I just met Marienne Bellamy
and she's… she's alive.
[sobbing] And I had
all the information.
I just got lost in him.
I just… I fucked
up, and I'm sorry.
I don't know how to fix what I broke,
but I swear to you that I will.
I just… [sighs] Fuck it. [sputters]
I'm getting in a cab now.
I'm coming to see you.
[breathes deeply] Fuck.
[breathing heavily]
Fuck. Fucking wallet.
[exhales]
- [flames crackling]
- [wood creaks]
[Kate, weakly] You
put a key in your arm.
[chuckling] That's so mad.
- Oh.
- [both coughing]
[Joe] So…
This is it.
[somber music playing]
Till death do us part.
[Kate chuckles softly, groans]
I'm not about to die with
another woman's ring. [scoffs]
You did it. You
sacrificed yourself.
To kill me.
[muffled thudding]
Well done, you.
Oh, shut up.
I killed your dad.
I know.
He deserved it.
[chuckles]
- [winces]
- [objects clattering upstairs]
[Kate groans]
[Kate groaning]
All your wives dying in fires.
No, Love didn't die in a fire.
I poisoned her.
She didn't start it?
No, I did.
I had to get rid
of the evidence.
[Kate inhales, sighs in relief]
Thank you.
[wincing]
Nadia… [groans] …will
get this to the police.
- [exhales]
- [cell phone clatters]
[Joe] Well.
You got me.
[chuckles softly]
[objects thudding upstairs]
You can die happy.
I can.
I got you.
[objects clattering upstairs]
[Joe] I'm sorry, Bronte.
I wish I had a
chance to do better.
To start over with you.
But what if this
is what I deserve?
[objects clattering]
[dramatic music playing]
[Bronte gasps]
[exhales]
[coughing]
- Marienne? [coughing] Kate?
- [objects clanging]
[panting] Oh, my God. Come
on, Kate. Wake up, wake up.
Kate, come on. Come
on, wake up, wake up.
- [Joe] Bronte.
- [gasps]
[dramatic music continues]
Joe.
You came to save me.
She tried to kill me.
I was defending myself.
["vampire" by Olivia
Rodrigo playing]
[objects thudding]
Joe, we have to get out
of here. Now. Come on.
[both coughing]
- [Joe coughing]
- [Bronte] You can do it, come on.
