Right to Know

- [man.]
What happened? - [woman.]
She was already dead.
- What's her condition right now? - Sir, she's gone.
- What? - She's gone.
- [flatline drones.]

[flatline echoing.]
[heartbeat echoing.]
[heartbeat increasing in volume.]

[woman.]
Univariate has one meaning, but the meaning has different implications for different situations.
You can run a linear regression model with only continuous predictor variables in SPSS GLM, by putting them in a co-variant box which defines the predictor variable as continuous.
You can use GLMs to analyze regressions, but in the SPSS there are options available in GLM and regression procedures that aren't available in the other.
So, how do you decide when to use GLM and when to use regression? [blades clash.]
[Sasha.]
What am I even doing here? Frank hasn't filled out my participation waiver yet.
And I'm kind of just sitting on the sidelines, learning the game.
It's only been like a few days, but it feels like forever.
I can't stop thinking about Becky, and about how she died.
[Yvonne.]
You are going to make yourself crazy.
Just pick up some rich girl hobbies and enjoy that time on the sidelines.
You feel? That's a lot easier said than done.
Damn.
Maybe your next class will take your mind off of it? [electricity sparking.]
[man.]
All right.
So we're done.
You can all scrub up and prepare for the next phase of our day, fetal pigs.
I hope everyone has turkey bacon today.
Hey.
Are you okay? I'm fine.
Cool.
Here, come on.
Where do you two think you're going? This barbaric animal mutilation is making Sasha uncomfortable.
So, I'm volunteering to take her to the nap room.
Right.
Take as long as you need, Sasha.
- I'm fine.
- I know.
It's cool if you're not, though.
Is that why you didn't do it? No, I just ignore the teachers here on principle.
Speaking of shit worth ignoring.
What's a releasing ceremony? Some bullshit where we take a bunch of Becky's favorite shit and set it on fire, so she can have it in her next life as a squirrel.
Yeah, that's what happens when Ben spends too much time at the Annex Foundation.
It's this New Age country club where you cleanse your soul and your colon.
At the same time, if you want.
I can't go.
I have a thing.
You'll need a better excuse than that.
But I've got you covered, you know.
Lying to Ben and Nancy is my second favorite addiction.
Uh Now, no one can say I didn't show you the nap room, but it is last period so if you want to leave early, feel free.
Fuck it.
I could use the sleep anyway.
I'm surprised you didn't keep their umbilical cords too.
The doctor told us to keep them, remember? Something about stem cells.
You're not thinking of bringing those to the burn, are you? Well, we got rid of her heart.
We might as well get rid of her teeth, too.
I'm kidding - I think.
- Good.
A special young woman is alive today because of our daughter.
I had Elliot invite her to the ceremony.
That's a terrible idea.
She's a part of our lives now.
Are you trying to traumatize the girl, Ben? I mean, how do you think she's going to feel, being surrounded by all of Becky's closest friends and family while we set her shit on fire? Are you worried about her feelings or yours? This is barbaric.
You're looking at this upside down.
The releasing ceremony is not about destruction.
It's about hope.
Sasha is a part of that hope.
It's going to be a beautiful thing, I promise.
What about her blanket? She never went anywhere without it.
So, let's make sure she has it.
Wherever she is.
Danger coming over Coming over Shaking in your body Gentle lover Do it, do it better Faster slower Danger coming over Coming over Count to a million Hey, girl! I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but I noticed you struggling a little in Stats.
I wasn't struggling.
We just don't have that class at Cottonwood.
Oh, totally.
But, hey, here's an idea.
I take you out to coffee after school and help you get up to speed.
Thanks, but I have to get back to work at Cottonwood.
Cool, cool.
But as you said, it's a transitional issue, - and I am your transitional partner, so - I don't need a tutor.
[music drowns out speech.]
Danger coming over Coming over Danger coming over Coming over Danger coming over, coming over Count to a million [song continues faintly through headphones.]
[screaming.]
- [woman.]
Wake up.
- [phone ringing.]
Where am I? Spring Station.
I was supposed to get off in Cottonwood.
Cottonwood's an hour back, the other way.
[Sasha.]
Frank? That stupid bus from Spring Station was 20 minutes late.
Anyway, I'm here now.
Just in time to clock out.
Shit.
It was selfish of me to keep you working here with everything you've got on your plate.
I put out word for the job.
Already got a few bites.
You put an ad out for my job? Frank, are you firing me? You're burning the candle at both ends, Sasha! Doesn't make sense.
Here.
What's this? An actual pink slip? It's a waiver for your gym class.
I finally got around to filling it out.
Thanks.
Aren't you going to help me close up? I don't work here anymore, remember? I can't see the light When I get down You okay? Yeah, I'm fine.
I can't find my shirt.
Here.
Just wear one of mine.
Smells like you.
Am I doing it bad or something? What? No, TJ, you're great.
I didn't think taking that scholarship would change so much of my life here.
I hate being a halfer.
It's like, whichever way you choose, something is going to end up sucking.
You with this school thing.
Me with my tribal enrollment.
We're doing a potluck this weekend with Kara and a bunch of the elder women to talk about how important Diné lineage is, and how I'm not a girl, and I'm an only child.
I have to continue the family name, blah, blah, blah.
Shoot me.
Then I'll go with you.
And even if it sucks, we can just make fun of it.
I don't think that would fly.
Why not? I'm Diné, too.
Yeah.
But not enough for Mommy, right? She thinks I'm a fucking apple.
She just doesn't think that you know what it's like to be part of a tribe.
Yeah, I thought you and everyone else was my tribe, but I guess I was wrong.
Come on, Sasha.
Maybe I don't fit in anywhere at all.
It's just so weird.
Everything just feels wrong.
TJ and I don't fight, it's not like us.
If I could just find out the truth about that camera, I could get Becky out of my head.
You need to let this girl rest in peace.
You've got enough on your plate.
How about you just accept the fact that she saved your life and got you that scholarship, and get on with it.
Damn, Vonne.
Really wish I could've packed for that guilt trip.
Hey, pack heavy, girl.
[phone buzzes.]
[Miss Schwartz.]
GLM and regression are similar, yet distinguishably different.
Look at the graph on page 58.
This is the graph you'll be using for your pop quiz.
I hope you all studied this week.
Put your laptops away.
When you cheat, you're only cheating yourself.
Your test begins now.
As part of the peer initiative, you'll be grading each other's tests.
So, if you could swap with the person next to you.
Don't stress.
Even if you bomb this one, most of the grade is from the final.
Still plenty of time for the coffee and study sesh.
92.
Congrats.
I'm so sorry.
You told me you weren't struggling and I didn't believe you.
I was so judgy.
Guess you should be the one tutoring me.
[Russell.]
This piece of shit makes Yvonne's jeep look like a Range Rover.
You know I don't spoil Sasha like you spoil Yvonne.
That'll show up later in life, you'll see.
[laughter.]
As long as she's not taking that bus, that gives her an extra hour to sleep.
I just want to show her that if I can make it off the rez, she can make it out of here too.
She'll be lucky if this makes it out of the driveway.
Frank Yazzie? - Yeah.
- Hey, I'm Deacon.
I'm here about the job.
Brian sent me.
Since when you hiring? Listen, the pay is shit, but it'll satisfy your parole.
All right.
Hey, just so you know, I don't know much about fish but I guess I like 'em fried.
I'm motivated.
I work hard.
Really? You're motivated to do what? Keep my ass from going back to jail.
All right, man.
I heard that.
Let me show you the shop.
[woman.]
You need protectors.
In case the foil breaks.
You don't want to get stabbed in the heart.
This one's for your chest and then there's one for your sword arm.
- You right-handed? - Yeah.
Okay.
You can use this one.
Thanks.
I'm Sasha.
Yeah, I know who you are.
Why are you playing today? Sick of sitting on the sidelines.
You're gonna get wrecked.
Just 'cause you always get your ass kicked doesn't mean Sasha will.
Come on, newbie.
Wanna be my partner today? I'll go easy on you, I promise.
Um Sure.
Super simple.
You just try and advance and hit my torso with your foil.
Okay.
Thank you.
- Ready? - Ready.
En garde.
It means, like, "get ready.
" Oh.
Oh cool.
Fence.
Oh, you wanna hold the grip like a bird in your hand.
You don't wanna squish it, but you also don't want it to fly away.
Fence.
Keep your center of gravity over your feet.
Thought I was over my feet.
Okay, how about you watch me.
I'll advance and you defend.
Fence.
You okay? I'm fine.
En garde.
You're full of surprises today! Beginner's luck, I guess.
So modest.
You're gonna have to be on the team, especially since you're ambidextrous.
I'm right-handed.
I saw you switch.
Anyway, if you ever want to practice, let me know.
- There's this great gym - I'm gonna get some water.
[Elliot.]
Joining in on all the reindeer games? I know he's ugly, but it's rude to stare.
I wasn't staring.
Look, I think he's used to it, actually.
Sasha, this is my sponsor, Ravi.
Oh, don't be annoying.
I'm just his best friend for some reason.
- I believe you already know Marnie.
- Yes.
- You two are a thing? - [Marnie.]
Yeah, we're practically married.
I have to go take a shower.
[Ravi.]
The hell was up with your girl? She was looking at me like she knew me.
Yeah, and you were looking at her too.
She's not my girl.
She's just my parents' new pet project.
Bullshit.
She's hot.
Don't tell me you haven't thought about it.
Actually, I haven't.
Hey, you coming to this thing on Saturday? For what? The releasing ceremony.
My parents invited all of Becky's friends.
Nah, that shit weirds me out.
Can't handle it.
So, you're just going to leave me hanging? Sorry, dude.
You're flying solo on this one.
Hey.
Great hustle earlier.
Haven't seen someone pulverize Marnie like that since Becky.
- Terrible friend, great fencer.
- You're friends with her? Yeah.
Her, Marnie, Elliot, that whole anaconda asshole crew.
Seriously, you're good enough to be on the team.
We could use a new left-hander.
[Sasha.]
I just don't get why the family would want to hide the real way their daughter died.
Why are you going to this thing if it's upsetting you so much? Because I have her heart, Yvonne.
I mean, this might sound crazy, but I'm starting to feel the shit she felt.
Like yesterday, I met a guy that I had a dream about and I felt like I knew him.
Her heart started… It's your heart, Sasha.
Yours.
If we can just find that camera, maybe we can find the truth.
I think you should stop worrying about these conspiracy theories.
Honestly.
Shit.
And focus more on your busted ass eyebrows, girl.
That's cold and you know it.
Stop! Register is counted at the beginning and the end of every shift.
You trust me with your money? Is there a reason I shouldn't? No.
It's… I mean, Brian, he said you were cool.
I just didn't know you were this cool.
You worked at Tent City, right? You know how felons can be.
You treat people like animals, they tend to act like animals.
Frank, if you're such a nice guy, what the hell were you working there in the first place for? I mean, it's not a secret.
The place is a hellhole.
I worked there for the same reason anybody else worked there.
I had bills to pay.
But, like an asshole, I thought I could make a difference.
Didn't take long for me to realize I was pissing into the wind.
Is that what you're doing now? By hiring felons? You making up for it? I'll just go back here.
[Yvonne.]
If they find us in her room, you know they'll think we're stealing.
[Sasha.]
We are stealing.
Hey! I'm okay, thank you.
That's her? That's her.
Sasha! - Oh! Hey.
- It's so good to see you.
I was worried you wouldn't come.
You brought a guest.
Hi.
Handshakes are so impersonal, I come from a family of huggers.
- It's so nice to meet you.
- You came.
Yeah, I guess I didn't have a thing after all.
Elliot, this is my friend Yvonne.
Hey.
Nah, I'm good.
- What is that? - I found her cast under my bed.
It's pretty gross, right? Yeah.
A little.
I was so jealous when she got all that attention that I kept it when she took it off.
I wore it to kindergarten for, like, an entire week.
[Sasha laughs.]
But the strange part, though I wasn't at the park when it happened but I could feel it when she broke her arm.
Sasha! - You made it! - Oh, hey.
I'm so glad you came.
- So, tell me.
How's everything going? - It's going good.
This is my friend Yvonne.
- Hey, Yvonne.
I'm Ben.
- Hey.
- How are you? Welcome.
- Thanks.
I want you guys to meet a really close friend of mine.
- Evan.
- Hi! - Oh, hi.
- So wonderful to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
- His wonderful wife, Ruth.
- Hi.
Hi.
[Marnie.]
Told you I come from huggers.
Ben's told us so much about you.
How are you adjusting to your life at Crystal Valley? That commute has got to be hell for you.
Taking the bus every morning.
What time do you have to get up? 5:00 a.
m.
usually.
God, that hurts.
Seriously? What is Penelope doing here? - Marnie.
- Marnie.
Be nice.
They were friends.
I thought you guys were friends, too.
I saw the fencing team photos.
[Marnie.]
That was forever ago.
Those pictures were taken last year.
[Marnie.]
Yeah, well.
People change.
[Yvonne.]
Hey, I just want… Oh! I am so sorry! We need to get you cleaned up.
Do you have a restroom - or something we can use? - Of course.
- Just down the hall, past the kitchen.
- Okay, thank you.
Excuse me.
Sorry.
I needed an excuse to go inside.
You could've just asked to use the bathroom.
This is my one dress.
Let's find it already.
[Yvonne.]
Hurry up.
Yvonne.
This is the guy.
From my dreams.
You've probably seen the picture before, - that's why you're dreaming about him.
- Yeah, maybe.
Hey, are you sure you really saw it? Yeah, it was here.
It was in a trophy.
I know I'm not crazy.
[door opens.]
[Nancy.]
What are you doing in here? I get it.
I'd be curious too.
Something happened to your dress? My friend, she spilled on me.
The bathroom downstairs was full, so I came up here to get clean.
What size are you? Something in here'll fit.
Perfect.
Hands up.
It's a better one.
Arms over your head.
Perfect.
It's a little tight.
No.
It's beautiful.
It was Becky's favorite dress.
I'm sorry.
I can take it off.
Keep it on.
Keep it.
It's just… [Sasha.]
All those people waiting for you to burn your daughter's shit.
It's weird.
We're supposed to be helping Becky's spirit feel free enough to move on.
I know it makes me selfish, but I just… I can't.
I mean what kind of mother burns her daughter's baby blanket? I know they're just things, but… I wear my mom's clothes all the time.
How old were you when she died? Two.
You've been through so much, haven't you? Yeah.
But, like, who hasn't, right? Hide the baby blanket.
Throw the empty box in the fire.
I won't tell anyone.
Promise.
Use the bathroom downstairs, okay? That one's off-limits.
[ethereal singing.]
- [Yvonne.]
What are you doing? - Okay Um The home is a a deeply personal place, and Nancy's home is full of of grief and darkness, and hopefully these crystals will facilitate an energetic release.
Oh.
Okay.
Hey, how well do you know the Lefevres? You guys are pretty tight, right? Why? Uh I wanted their Wi-Fi password.
Do you know it, by chance? [ethereal music playing.]
No, I'm gonna do it.
They're very private.
See you downstairs, sweetie.
[whispers.]
The camera's still here.
I was able to hack in.
Do you recognize this weird scar? I can't.
[Nancy.]
Ben and I and Elliot, we can't tell you how much it means to us for you to be here and help our daughter, Rebecca peacefully move on.
I feel really uncomfortable.
Can we just get out of here? Yeah.
And my dad's working late so I gotta get home and take care of Mom.
Let's go.
You have a keen eye.
Not many people notice that.
What does it mean? It means that criminals are a cowardly and superstitious lot.
It's a stupid Batman mask.
It's not stupid.
It is funny.
Ben likes to mix it up with our Tanzanian mask collection just to screw with people.
You could say that I'm a real Joker.
Oh! Mr.
Lefevre hot and ready with the dad jokes.
Always.
[Yvonne.]
Okay.
I see you.
[Nancy.]
I'll have your dress dry cleaned.
Come pick it up soon.
Promise? Yeah.
Sure.
Sasha, before you go, Nancy and I have something we want to give you.
Something you need.
You'll love it.
You're giving her Becky's car? I thought that I Sasha needs it more.
We didn't appreciate how difficult it would be for you to get to school.
- I don't mind the bus.
- No, it's fine, Sasha.
Elliot won't be needing it anytime soon.
You don't even have your license.
Sure.
I am in no danger of getting my shit together anytime soon.
- Elliot.
- No, thanks, Mom.
Seriously.
Take the car.
Please.
What the hell's that? Ben loaned it to me.
Oh, it's Ben now? Now you don't gotta worry about me falling asleep on the bus again.
Look, cars are a lot of work.
Have to get oil changes, pay for gas.
It's a hybrid.
They still use gas, don't they? It's okay to take their money but not their car? It's fine.
But if Ben tries to give you anything else, you be sure you call me first, you understand me? Yeah.
What do you think? Mmm I mean, it's nice.
It's definitely nice.
Some of her stuff's still back here.
Really? Oh, yeah.
[sobs softly.]
Yvonne! Oh, yeah.
What? I mean, if they ask you where it went, just tell them they burned 'em.
You okay? Sash? Just another day in Crystal Valley.
What if whoever is watching her is watching me? You're crazy.
Don't worry about that camera.
We're gonna find it.
Night! [door opens.]
[gasps.]
[sobbing.]
