Cassandra French's Finishing School (2017) s01e07 Episode Script
Finals Week
1 Previously on "Cassandra French's Finishing School" She's on house arrest.
My stepdad stole a few million, disappeared.
My mom got played.
- That's some next-level shit.
- There's this guy.
I can't get him out of my head, you know? I totally do.
Owen, I wasn't talking about you! - Oh.
- He's really nice.
And he's funny, smart.
Who is Audrey? She's fuckin' everywhere.
She's, like, all over his wall.
- Is this your girlfriend? - We aren't together anymore.
- You fuckin' ghosted her.
- Good luck, ladies.
You just woke up the bear.
Arr! This is Audrey.
She came out here to, you know, what was it again? Find my son of a bitch, cheating-ass boyfriend.
- [Echoing.]
Cassie? - [Distorted voices.]
Cassie? Cassie.
Cassie! - Want you up.
- Yeah.
Hey, Cassie, um, are you okay? Hey, Cassie.
Honey, doin' okay? Oh! - [Vomiting.]
- [Knocks on door.]
In use.
Ocupado.
Go away.
It's me, dummy.
Open up.
- What the fuck? - I know.
But passing out and then running to bathroom doesn't exactly scream "innocent bystander"! Audrey is here in our neighborhood at our bar with our Lexi.
I know.
And we're gonna deal with it.
- How? - I don't fucking know! - Just give me a minute.
- [Both breathe deeply.]
[Knocks on door.]
- Go away! - Go away! Girls? I don't exactly need to pee, But I would like to come in here, please.
Hi! I'm gonna come.
I'm just just I'm coming.
- Lexi! - What? - What the fuck? - I'm sorry.
I didn't recognize her.
We showed you her photo.
I know.
But she's much prettier in person.
You know, not everyone's photogenic.
Okay.
Okay.
Lexi, focus.
What did you tell her? Nothing.
Very little.
She was sitting at the bar, and I walked in.
And she looked sad.
And you know how I get with sad people.
Okay.
But sh she didn't say anything about Owen.
She said that she was looking for her boyfriend.
But I thought that she just meant that metaphorically, you know, like, - "Aren't we all, sister?" - [Knocks on door.]
ALL: Go away! Okay.
Okay.
So, m-maybe - maybe we can use this.
- Yes.
Yeah, like, if Audrey hadn't have run into Lexi, then we wouldn't know that she was in town.
- Yeah.
- And she'd just be like, - roaming around, looking for Owen - Yeah.
- finding shit out.
- Yeah, yeah, now that we do know Okay.
So we just have to make sure that she stays in our sights and one of us is by her side all the time.
- Yes.
- And we we steer her away from even getting vaguely close to Owen.
- Yes.
Yes.
- Oh, that's a better plan than I had.
- Thank you.
- Except none of us - are near her right now.
- Go.
Go.
Go.
Go.
Go.
- Shit.
- Shit.
Shit.
Shit.
Shit.
[Sighs.]
Well, fuck.
Ow.
Bathroom was full up with some skanks.
Who wants to go clubbing?! Yeah? Fuck yeah! Let's kill the night, bitches! Whoo! [Laughs.]
- How much has she had to drink? - She's bone sober.
Whoo! All the things that I've done Oh, how you'd run if you knew a single one Of all of the things that I've done [Motor whirring.]
Oh, my God.
He's leaf-blowing our lawn.
[Sighs.]
Stop! I thought we told him not to do that.
He's not a strong listener.
Dude, you have to crush him like "Harry and the Hendersons.
" It's an Omar thing.
Fuck.
If you won't, I sure as fuck will! Hey! Hey, I'm gonna do it.
I'll do it.
Okay? I'll do it.
Just I just need, like, 40 Advil first.
[Chuckles.]
[Sniffs.]
[Grunts.]
[Grunts.]
Oh, my God.
You're shitting me.
But you said this Owen guy was on, like, a spiritual retreat? Yeah.
But I'm thinking it's bullshit from the start because Owen doesn't go on spiritual retreats unless it's to the Budweiser factory.
And then he's exercising on Insta.
[Chuckles.]
Smells like donkey balls to me.
- [Chuckling.]
Right? - So I'm already suspicious.
But then he posts this photo with a Mexican delivery menu it, and it's in the 323.
So I'm like, "Bitch, Joshua Tree, my tits.
" So I haul down the 5.
And I figure I'll haunt his stupid ass until I figure out what nasty gash he's been throwing it in and how many heads I got to kick in till I feel like mission accomplished.
I can tell that you love him very much.
Right? So we gonna go search for the asshole or what? Give me a teensy, little second.
[Cellphone vibrates.]
Hey.
How's she holding up? [Whispering.]
You know how I believe humanity is basically good? - You and Anne Frank.
- Mm-hmm.
- Audrey freaking you out? - Oh, yeah.
Deep in my soul.
Just got to give her the runaround until she gives up and goes home.
I will be there in five.
Not to worry.
Hang tight, okay? Oh, please, hurry.
Drive fast.
I love you.
- I can hear you.
- Oh, yeah.
Uh, hey.
Sorry, I didn't know if you were awake.
I could come back later.
Oh, that's okay.
Just put it right there.
Uh, it's cereal.
I can make you eggs if you wanted.
Nah.
- I'm good with plain old cereal.
- Okay.
Some people like eggs.
There's nothing wrong with that.
That's just preference.
Well, I think if you've been making cereal this whole time, you should at least try the cereal before getting all hot and bothered over some half-famous British eggs.
Okay.
So we're doing this, the kiss, - let's just get it out there.
- The kiss? It was peck.
It was like kissing a cousin hello on Thanksgiving.
Uh, yeah, if your cousin is Woody Allen.
Oh, you're mad because I showed you some affection.
No.
I'm mad because you don't seem to understand the concept that what you want might not be what I want.
No.
No.
You're Ow.
You're mad because you're always in control.
But now you're trapped between two guys.
I'm not trapped.
Nobody here is trapped.
Okay, you might be trapped, like, a little.
But, hey.
This isn't a dating game situation here.
There is no choice to be made.
You are not on the menu.
Then why are you doing all this? What's the point? So I can help you and teach you.
So you can learn how to be a better man.
A better man for you.
Someone that would be interesting to you.
If you don't want me, what is the point? Claire wants me to be a sex toy.
Lexi wants me to be some spiritual health guru.
And some other girl's going to want me to be something else.
So now I'm just trapped in a basement again starting fresh.
So if you want a custom-made toy, that's fine.
At least play with the fucking thing once in a while.
Enjoy your cereal.
[Doorbell rings.]
Hey, hey, hey, Cassa - Go home, Doug.
- Oh, Cassandra, uh, sorry, I just finished the the lawn.
And I thought I don't know how many times I have to say this Stop coming over.
Stop helping me with things.
I didn't ask for any of this, and you are not listening.
Oh.
I just thought that maybe you could, eh Go home, Doug.
Don't come back.
Arise It's your turn now Come to the river - This is fun right? - [Horn blaring.]
- Yeah.
- Oh, shit.
Sorry.
[Sighs.]
Yeah.
Hey, look, it's a Boost Mobile.
That's the Boost Mobile where Tupac got his first cellphone.
That's a new store.
Tupac died like 20 years ago.
Did he? Did he? Did he really? I want you You are the rhythm of my fancy - Underneath - The rivers that you froze Ecstasy in the foam of a venti But the world can't be seen through a pill Yeah.
This is it.
This is the place from that picture.
I bet Owen orders from here all the time.
The fucker lives on burritos.
- Whoa.
- Hey! Whoa, whoa.
Hey, hey, hey.
[Laughs.]
You don't want to, uh, go in hot to a family-owned Mexican restaurant, 'cause that's gonna start a war.
So why don't I, uh, go in for you.
I'll take your phone and I'll ask them and you can stay here and breathe.
- Breathe.
- Breathe.
We can breathe.
Breathing is so important.
So let's practice.
[Both breathing deeply.]
Um, hi, uh, ¿Habla Inglés? Great.
Uh ¿Has visto este, uh, muchacho? No.
No.
Ask what's his delivery area.
If you're hungry I know a great place in Larchmont.
If I know where this guy delivers, I can narrow in on the son of a bitch.
Great.
Yeah.
I'll, uh, find that out.
Um Digame, uh, a la cosa, uh, mas grande.
¿Que pregunta? Espere.
¿Estoy en la tele? - Sì.
- "En El Ciano Pacifico.
" Sì! And y, uh, y que tan, uh, grande es era chiquito o grande - grande - Grandote.

Uh, estaramos se contacto.
Yeah.
Dude, it's a it's a very large, uh, delivery area, like, 10 miles or more.
- So - Wait.
There was another picture.
From a store near Lafayette Park.
- Lafayette Park? - Is Lafayette Park close? - Alli.
Alli esta.
- Ista! - Alli.
- Gi! Oh.
- Yeah.
It's - Let's go to Lafayette Park.
Lafayette Park it is.
- Hi! - Uh, come in.
Come in.
- Okay.
Are you sure? - Yeah.
Just, um I don't want to interrupt anything and Ken Hall is not, like, lurking in a corner somewhere, right? Oh, my God.
I love Ken Hall! - Hi, Cassava.
- Hey.
Oh, yeah.
- I can totally come back at a - No, no, no.
We're just talking about the "Abolition Road" premiere tomorrow night.
Oh, my God.
Cassava, get this when I asked Elijah what he was gonna wear, he said he's just gonna throw something on! [Scoffs.]
Yeah.
I don't want to get all worked up about stuff like that.
You know, the clothes don't maketh a man.
No.
We have to coordinate.
It is crucial.
Tell him, Cassava, right, it is? Right? Right, it is? Tell him.
Tell him it is, right? Oh, yes.
It's your first time being seen in public.
- It's kind of a big deal.
- It is, right? But if I mean, if you're gonna be in Japan.
Oh, my God.
Crazy story.
Are you ready? Okay.
So they asked me to open a night club in Vienna.
Oh! Overnight private jet, I get there, the nicest people in, like, the whole world.
I dance my ass off for like six hours, take a little cat nap in a private room, champagne breakfast, and now, I'm back at the airport lounge.
[Laughs.]
Oh, my God.
But, you guys, you guys! Vienna is soooo beautiful.
Oh, my God.
I I love Vienna.
I shot a car advert there last year.
In high school, I was in "The Sound of Music," which takes place In Vienna? In Salzburg, which is nearby, I think.
I played Liesl.
Anyway, Cassavs, I'll send you pictures of my closet, and you can pick out what's gonna be cute together.
Okay? Won't that be fun? Yeah, Cassava, wouldn't it? S-S-S-So fun.
Have you ever thought that maybe he's just not worth it? Of course, he's not worth it.
He's useless as a cock-flavored lollipop.
That's gross.
Okay.
So why are you going through all this trouble? I mean, there are plenty of other guys who would be totally interested in your particular manner.
- It's complicated.
- Hey, guys, still on the hunt for Owen.
Just one quick pit stop.
I can't give away my shift.
Vivic says he needs me on the afternoon tour.
- He needs me.
- Who said anything about giving it up? Um, this is a team tour.
You don't know team tours? We team up, and we tour? Uh, like a native, this one.
You know what, but hon if I'm gonna cramp your style Oh, no, no, no.
I I I could learn so much from you.
F-Fuck yeah! Yeah! Absolutely 'cause we're, uh, a team! Uh, ladies and gentlemen, hi.
Uh, so lovely to Right this way, please.
Right this way, you look wonderful.
Great.
Thank you so much.
- What the fuck? - I I know.
Um, these are, uh, these aren't normal assholes.
These are VIP assholes.
And, um, I don't want to lose my job.
So, uh, an hour tops, and then we'll be back on the prowl for Owen.
Great? Welcome, uh, United Nation ambassadors.
We are so honored to have you here with us today.
You know what? I have this great strapless one, makes my tits look on fucking fleek.
Oh, I think they're calling me.
I'm gonna go.
I'm gonna take my Xanax, though.
See you guys there, okay? Bye.
- Bye.
- Bye.
[Inhales sharply.]
Yeah.
You got to tell her your name isn't Cassava.
Oh, God, I can't.
I think it's too late now.
It's, like, we're past that stage Well, yeah, but how many times did I say "Cassandra"? Like, a thousand times.
You tried so hard.
God, I'm so sorry about all of this, - about the setup, about her - No, no, no.
She means well.
And my social reach has reached 40k on all platforms.
Oh, well, look who's talking like a PR manager.
Well, I don't actually know what any of it means.
But it was good enough to fool you.
And it's my job to take care of your subscriber base.
Oh, what are you gonna do for my subscriber base? I think I just have to make sure it gets, like, like, so many likes.
Oh, but like a thousand? - Like a million likes.
- A billion likes? Okay, nobody's got a billion likes.
Okay, well, I thought we were just doing something.
Well, we were, but we still have, like, a reality - to contend with here.
- [Chuckles.]
Yes, here we are, ladies and gentlemen, in the beautiful Hancock Park named after the insurance salesman John Hancock Park.
And up here on the left is the house of the famous actor Steve Buscemi.
It is? Uh, I was told that that was the house of music producer Erick Morillo.
No.
Steve Buscemi.
Excuse me, how much longer is this? Uh, and up here on the right is the house of the famous recording artist Pink.
Oh, my God.
- There we go.
- I have to get a picture.
[Sighs.]
Seriously? [Cellphone vibrates.]
- But he's been on Facebook.
- Yeah.
The idiot's posting.
And he texted me back, but something's off.
I can't place it.
God, I just need to see his stupid-ass face.
And then, I guess, I'll feel better.
Maybe we could get her blackout drunk.
She doesn't drink.
I thought maybe she was sober.
So I threw out some twelve-step buzzwords, but I got nothing.
- [Sighs.]
- I'm gonna go to the cops.
Whoa! Wait.
What? Wait, why? Tammy there thinks it all smells a little fishy.
Yeah.
It stinks to high heaven.
- Thank you, Tammy.
- And, uh, and I'm, uh, tired of waiting around.
The sooner I get the cops involved, the sooner I find Owen and kick his ass.
So you gonna take me or what? - Well - Just - Yeah.
Guess we'll have to go.
- Great.
- Yeah.
Guess we'll have - Yay! Oh oh, no.
[Sighs.]
Keys.
- Oh - Oh, man.
- Lost the keys.
- No problem.
I have a spare.
Great.
Thank you, Omar.
E Oh! Oh, my goodness! It it went in the it went in the storm drain.
All the way down there.
It's gone.
Uh, I guess we'll just have to wait here.
Not so fast! Just so I know, how many other spare keys do you have stashed away in there? Just these, maybe a few more.
The adventure continues.
Yippee ki-yay, motherfucker.
It's not relevant to this situation.
I just I really love "Die Hard.
" [Cellphone vibrates.]
- Has Audrey given up yet? - [Sighs.]
Not even close.
- She wants to go to the cops.
- Claire, no, you have to stop her.
Dude, I don't have any more time to stall her.
We we've had Owen text her and IM her and tweet at her.
What if he called her? Oh, what, you been practicing your Owen impression? Give me 30 minutes, an hour with traffic.
[Sighs.]
You got 20.
[Knocking on door.]
Uh, h-hold on.
Hold on.
Hold on.
What [Sighs.]
Oh, Cassie Bear, well, what a surprise? Do you know where that Taser is? - Oh, no, I, uh, no, I, uh - You have it go me for Christmas, it was a really thoughtful gift, by the way.
I lost it in the settlement.
Oh, don't go in there.
Don't go in there.
Don't that's No, no, no.
Oh! [Sighs.]
You know where he is? You've known this whole time.
You're a liar.
[Sighs.]
You willingly trapped yourself in this fuckin' hellhole when all you had to say was, "There there he is.
Go get him"? No.
It's not that it's not that simple.
You let him use you.
It's as simple as that.
Cassie, don't You think I got it all figured out, huh? You you think you're so smart? I know that you can't follow me more than 30 feet past your door.
- [Bracelet beeps.]
- Thanks for the Taser.
- Goddamn it.
- And, uh, then on, uh, the left here we have the also world-famous, uh, Hustler, the sex store where you can get all of your favorite sex toys, uh, vibrators, and edible panties.
Uh, cherry is my favorite flavor, I would highly recommend it.
You give a very different tour than I do.
Yeah.
I've been doing it longer.
So Uh, okay, I I'll do my best to learn from your example.
Uh, Christ, no, please don't do that.
Listen, okay? You just do you, okay? Promise me that 'cause you've you've got hope.
And that's a hard thing to find in this world.
- Thank you, Claire.
- You're welcome.
Life moves pretty fast.
If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you can miss it.
- "Ferris Bueller's" - I know.
[Chuckles.]
[Car alarm chirps.]
Ah.
Oh, God.
Hi, Doreen.
What what is it? [Breathing deeply.]
[Sniffs.]
Shit.
I'm an asshole.
I know.
You're so I mean, Doug is, like, the nicest guy.
And he doesn't deserve to get all, you know, rolled up into my emotional baggage.
I know.
I know.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Of course I will write him his recommendation.
I'm just I'm gonna take this.
I'm gonna smooth it out.
And I will write just Thank you.
That's probably better.
Took you long enough.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Whoa, whoa, no.
I don't have time to explain.
Audrey's in town.
[Laughs.]
Told you she'd figure it out.
Yeah.
So, you need to call her, and you need to chill her out.
You don't get it, do you? She doesn't chill.
She's like napalm.
Then redirect her.
Do something.
We're gonna call her, and if you say one wrong thing, I will Tase your ass until it's medium-rare! Took fuckin' long enough.
The cops will find Owen's pasty ass.
Hey, where are you goin'? Smoothies, smoothies, I want smoothies.
- Do you guys do you want a smoothie? - No.
No, thank you.
Here we are, ma'am.
If you enjoyed your tour, my name is Omar.
If you didn't enjoy your tour, my name is Daryl.
I think she enjoyed it.
- Um, no time for goodbyes? - Yes.
Bring it in.
Oh, you won't go please don't go anywhere.
Okay.
Oh, that's really hard.
Wait, wait, wait.
[Gasps.]
And [Sighs.]
Yes.
Fuck it.
[Cellphone vibrating.]
[Sighs.]
Owen? - Hey, babe.
- Where the fuck are you?! Oh, I've just been taking some me time.
What's that supposed to mean? I I have to see you.
Yeah.
I want to talk to you, too.
No.
I need to see you in person.
That's that's gonna be kinda tough right now, baby.
Don't "baby" me, okay? Just uh, just don't.
Our special place, tomorrow night at 8:00.
- [Cellphone beeps.]
- Aah! Geez! Okay.
What if he doesn't show up? He ghosts her all the time.
So it's, like - She'll go to the cops.
- I could send her a text, come up with some kind of excuse.
- Yes.
- She'll go to the cops.
She's super paranoid, dude.
He fucked us.
He's smarter than I gave him credit for.
I guess he's learning though, isn't he? Okay.
Looks like it's time to start prepping for our first field trip.
- You can't prove it - Oh, oh You got nothing legit Oh, oh The glove don't fit Oh, oh You got to acquit Oh, oh I didn't smoke it Oh, oh Oh, oh Oh, you can't prove it Oh, oh You never, ever gonna prove it Oh, oh Oh, oh Next time on "Cassandra French's Finishing School" - Why, if it isn't Miss French.
- Mr.
Foster.
You and Audrey are these salt and pepper shakers.
You stay close to her because you're our eyes and ears out there.
We just have to make sure you stick to the lesson plan.
- [Electricity buzzes.]
- Ow! Damn, motherfucker! [High-pitched.]
You're a sneaky little devil.
My stepdad stole a few million, disappeared.
My mom got played.
- That's some next-level shit.
- There's this guy.
I can't get him out of my head, you know? I totally do.
Owen, I wasn't talking about you! - Oh.
- He's really nice.
And he's funny, smart.
Who is Audrey? She's fuckin' everywhere.
She's, like, all over his wall.
- Is this your girlfriend? - We aren't together anymore.

Fuck.
If you won't, I sure as fuck will! Hey! Hey, I'm gonna do it.
I'll do it.

So we're doing this, the kiss, - let's just get it out there.
- The kiss? It was peck.
It was like kissing a cousin hello on Thanksgiving.
Uh, yeah, if your cousin is Woody Allen.
Oh, you're mad because I showed you some affection.
No.
I'm mad because you don't seem to understand the concept that what you want might not be what I want.
No.
No.
You're Ow.
You're mad because you're always in control.
But now you're trapped between two guys.
I'm not trapped.
Nobody here is trapped.
Okay, you might be trapped, like, a little.
But, hey.
This isn't a dating game situation here.
There is no choice to be made.
You are not on the menu.
Then why are you doing all this? What's the point? So I can help you and teach you.
So you can learn how to be a better man.
A better man for you.
Someone that would be interesting to you.
If you don't want me, what is the point? Claire wants me to be a sex toy.
Lexi wants me to be some spiritual health guru.
And some other girl's going to want me to be something else.
So now I'm just trapped in a basement again starting fresh.
So if you want a custom-made toy, that's fine.
At least play with the fucking thing once in a while.
Enjoy your cereal.
[Doorbell rings.]
Hey, hey, hey, Cassa - Go home, Doug.
- Oh, Cassandra, uh, sorry, I just finished the the lawn.
And I thought I don't know how many times I have to say this Stop coming over.
Stop helping me with things.
I didn't ask for any of this, and you are not listening.
Oh.
I just thought that maybe you could, eh Go home, Doug.
Don't come back.
Arise It's your turn now Come to the river - This is fun right? - [Horn blaring.]
- Yeah.
- Oh, shit.
Sorry.
[Sighs.]
Yeah.
Hey, look, it's a Boost Mobile.

That's a new store.
Tupac died like 20 years ago.
Did he? Did he? Did he really? I want you You are the rhythm of my fancy - Underneath - The rivers that you froze Ecstasy in the foam of a venti But the world can't be seen through a pill Yeah.

You don't want to, uh, go in hot to a family-owned Mexican restaurant, 'cause that's gonna start a war.
So why don't I, uh, go in for you.
I'll take your phone and I'll ask them and you can stay here and breathe.

We can breathe.
Breathing is so important.
So let's practice.

I love Ken Hall! - Hi, Cassava.
- Hey.
Oh, yeah.
- I can totally come back at a - No, no, no.
We're just talking about the "Abolition Road" premiere tomorrow night.
Oh, my God.
Cassava, get this when I asked Elijah what he was gonna wear, he said he's just gonna throw something on! [Scoffs.]
Yeah.
I don't want to get all worked up about stuff like that.
You know, the clothes don't maketh a man.
No.
We have to coordinate.
It is crucial.
Tell him, Cassava, right, it is? Right? Right, it is? Tell him.
Tell him it is, right? Oh, yes.
It's your first time being seen in public.
- It's kind of a big deal.
- It is, right? But if I mean, if you're gonna be in Japan.
Oh, my God.
Crazy story.
Are you ready? Okay.
So they asked me to open a night club in Vienna.
Oh! Overnight private jet, I get there, the nicest people in, like, the whole world.
I dance my ass off for like six hours, take a little cat nap in a private room, champagne breakfast, and now, I'm back at the airport lounge.
[Laughs.]
Oh, my God.
But, you guys, you guys! Vienna is soooo beautiful.
Oh, my God.
I I love Vienna.
I shot a car advert there last year.
In high school, I was in "The Sound of Music," which takes place In Vienna? In Salzburg, which is nearby, I think.
I played Liesl.
Anyway, Cassavs, I'll send you pictures of my closet, and you can pick out what's gonna be cute together.
Okay? Won't that be fun? Yeah, Cassava, wouldn't it? S-S-S-So fun.
Have you ever thought that maybe he's just not worth it? Of course, he's not worth it.
He's useless as a cock-flavored lollipop.
That's gross.
Okay.
So why are you going through all this trouble? I mean, there are plenty of other guys who would be totally interested in your particular manner.
- It's complicated.
- Hey, guys, still on the hunt for Owen.
Just one quick pit stop.
I can't give away my shift.
Vivic says he needs me on the afternoon tour.
- He needs me.
- Who said anything about giving it up? Um, this is a team tour.
You don't know team tours? We team up, and we tour? Uh, like a native, this one.
You know what, but hon if I'm gonna cramp your style Oh, no, no, no.
I I I could learn so much from you.
F-Fuck yeah! Yeah! Absolutely 'cause we're, uh, a team! Uh, ladies and gentlemen, hi.
Uh, so lovely to Right this way, please.
Right this way, you look wonderful.
Great.
Thank you so much.
- What the fuck? - I I know.
Um, these are, uh, these aren't normal assholes.
These are VIP assholes.
And, um, I don't want to lose my job.
So, uh, an hour tops, and then we'll be back on the prowl for Owen.
Great? Welcome, uh, United Nation ambassadors.
We are so honored to have you here with us today.
You know what? I have this great strapless one, makes my tits look on fucking fleek.
Oh, I think they're calling me.
I'm gonna go.
I'm gonna take my Xanax, though.
See you guys there, okay? Bye.
- Bye.
- Bye.
[Inhales sharply.]
Yeah.
You got to tell her your name isn't Cassava.
Oh, God, I can't.
I think it's too late now.
It's, like, we're past that stage Well, yeah, but how many times did I say "Cassandra"? Like, a thousand times.
You tried so hard.
God, I'm so sorry about all of this, - about the setup, about her - No, no, no.
She means well.
And my social reach has reached 40k on all platforms.
Oh, well, look who's talking like a PR manager.
Well, I don't actually know what any of it means.
But it was good enough to fool you.
And it's my job to take care of your subscriber base.
Oh, what are you gonna do for my subscriber base? I think I just have to make sure it gets, like, like, so many likes.
Oh, but like a thousand? - Like a million likes.
- A billion likes? Okay, nobody's got a billion likes.
Okay, well, I thought we were just doing something.
Well, we were, but we still have, like, a reality - to contend with here.
- [Chuckles.]
Yes, here we are, ladies and gentlemen, in the beautiful Hancock Park named after the insurance salesman John Hancock Park.
And up here on the left is the house of the famous actor Steve Buscemi.
It is? Uh, I was told that that was the house of music producer Erick Morillo.
No.
Steve Buscemi.
Excuse me, how much longer is this? Uh, and up here on the right is the house of the famous recording artist Pink.
Oh, my God.
- There we go.
- I have to get a picture.
[Sighs.]
Seriously? [Cellphone vibrates.]
- But he's been on Facebook.
- Yeah.
The idiot's posting.
And he texted me back, but something's off.
I can't place it.
God, I just need to see his stupid-ass face.
And then, I guess, I'll feel better.
Maybe we could get her blackout drunk.
She doesn't drink.
I thought maybe she was sober.
So I threw out some twelve-step buzzwords, but I got nothing.
- [Sighs.]
- I'm gonna go to the cops.
Whoa! Wait.
What? Wait, why? Tammy there thinks it all smells a little fishy.
Yeah.
It stinks to high heaven.
- Thank you, Tammy.
- And, uh, and I'm, uh, tired of waiting around.
The sooner I get the cops involved, the sooner I find Owen and kick his ass.
So you gonna take me or what? - Well - Just - Yeah.
Guess we'll have to go.
- Great.
- Yeah.
Guess we'll have - Yay! Oh oh, no.
[Sighs.]
Keys.
- Oh - Oh, man.
- Lost the keys.
- No problem.
I have a spare.
Great.
Thank you, Omar.
E Oh! Oh, my goodness! It it went in the it went in the storm drain.
All the way down there.
It's gone.
Uh, I guess we'll just have to wait here.
Not so fast! Just so I know, how many other spare keys do you have stashed away in there? Just these, maybe a few more.
The adventure continues.
Yippee ki-yay, motherfucker.
It's not relevant to this situation.
I just I really love "Die Hard.
" [Cellphone vibrates.]
- Has Audrey given up yet? - [Sighs.]
Not even close.
- She wants to go to the cops.
- Claire, no, you have to stop her.
Dude, I don't have any more time to stall her.
We we've had Owen text her and IM her and tweet at her.
What if he called her? Oh, what, you been practicing your Owen impression? Give me 30 minutes, an hour with traffic.
[Sighs.]
You got 20.
[Knocking on door.]
Uh, h-hold on.
Hold on.
Hold on.
What [Sighs.]
Oh, Cassie Bear, well, what a surprise? Do you know where that Taser is? - Oh, no, I, uh, no, I, uh - You have it go me for Christmas, it was a really thoughtful gift, by the way.
I lost it in the settlement.
Oh, don't go in there.
Don't go in there.
Don't that's No, no, no.
Oh! [Sighs.]
You know where he is? You've known this whole time.
You're a liar.
[Sighs.]
You willingly trapped yourself in this fuckin' hellhole when all you had to say was, "There there he is.
Go get him"? No.
It's not that it's not that simple.
You let him use you.
It's as simple as that.
Cassie, don't You think I got it all figured out, huh? You you think you're so smart? I know that you can't follow me more than 30 feet past your door.
- [Bracelet beeps.]
- Thanks for the Taser.
- Goddamn it.
- And, uh, then on, uh, the left here we have the also world-famous, uh, Hustler, the sex store where you can get all of your favorite sex toys, uh, vibrators, and edible panties.
Uh, cherry is my favorite flavor, I would highly recommend it.
You give a very different tour than I do.
Yeah.
I've been doing it longer.
So Uh, okay, I I'll do my best to learn from your example.
Uh, Christ, no, please don't do that.
Listen, okay? You just do you, okay? Promise me that 'cause you've you've got hope.
And that's a hard thing to find in this world.
- Thank you, Claire.
- You're welcome.
Life moves pretty fast.
If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you can miss it.
- "Ferris Bueller's" - I know.
[Chuckles.]
[Car alarm chirps.]
Ah.
Oh, God.
Hi, Doreen.
What what is it? [Breathing deeply.]
[Sniffs.]
Shit.
I'm an asshole.
I know.
You're so I mean, Doug is, like, the nicest guy.
And he doesn't deserve to get all, you know, rolled up into my emotional baggage.
I know.
I know.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Of course I will write him his recommendation.
I'm just I'm gonna take this.
I'm gonna smooth it out.
And I will write just Thank you.
That's probably better.
Took you long enough.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Whoa, whoa, no.
I don't have time to explain.
Audrey's in town.
[Laughs.]
Told you she'd figure it out.
Yeah.
So, you need to call her, and you need to chill her out.
You don't get it, do you? She doesn't chill.
She's like napalm.
Then redirect her.
Do something.
We're gonna call her, and if you say one wrong thing, I will Tase your ass until it's medium-rare! Took fuckin' long enough.
The cops will find Owen's pasty ass.
Hey, where are you goin'? Smoothies, smoothies, I want smoothies.
- Do you guys do you want a smoothie? - No.
No, thank you.
Here we are, ma'am.
If you enjoyed your tour, my name is Omar.
If you didn't enjoy your tour, my name is Daryl.
I think she enjoyed it.
- Um, no time for goodbyes? - Yes.
Bring it in.
Oh, you won't go please don't go anywhere.
Okay.
Oh, that's really hard.
Wait, wait, wait.
[Gasps.]
And [Sighs.]
Yes.
Fuck it.

[Sighs.]
Owen? - Hey, babe.
- Where the fuck are you?! Oh, I've just been taking some me time.
What's that supposed to mean? I I have to see you.
Yeah.

No.

Don't "baby" me, okay? Just uh, just don't.
Our special place, tomorrow night at 8:00.

- Aah! Geez! Okay.
What if he doesn't show up? He ghosts her all the time.
So it's, like - She'll go to the cops.
- I could send her a text, come up with some kind of excuse.
- Yes.
- She'll go to the cops.
She's super paranoid, dude.
He fucked us.
He's smarter than I gave him credit for.
I guess he's learning though, isn't he? Okay.
Looks like it's time to start prepping for our first field trip.

You stay close to her because you're our eyes and ears out there.
We just have to make sure you stick to the lesson plan.
- [Electricity buzzes.]
- Ow! Damn, motherfucker! [High-pitched.]
You're a sneaky little devil.
