1 REESE: People always think they understand how the world works.
- - - But we don't really know anything.
- [SHEEP BLEATING.]
- - We're always asking if we're alone in the universe if there's something else out there.
It's the wrong question.
We don't really need to know what's out there.
- - We want to know why we're even here and if what we do really Matters.

It's okay.
We're okay.
Except she won't talk about him at all To me, to anyone.
She doesn't see her friends.
She doesn't really do much of anything.
She's just kind of pulled out of her life.
I'm I'm worried about her.
- Sure.
- She used to love playing soccer, and then she quit the team.
I keep hounding her to play again, but I just I feel like it would help.
[CHUCKLES.]
Sorry.

Does that kind of thing happen a lot? Nope.
Um Maybe you should go back to sleep.
When I feel like it.
What are you reading? Mystery? Humor? Self-help? Romance? Y-A? I got some ideas for a Y-A novel.
Can you please just go away? Serious question Would you rather read a book called "Vampire Sluts" or "Murder Teens" - or "Robot High School"? - What is your problem? 'Cause I'm leaning towards "Vampire Sluts.
" - Why are you even here? - [CLEARS THROAT.]
Your mom insisted.
Because you tried to kill yourself? Yep.
Didn't didn't take.
But the real question is, um, why do you think Goth - is still a thing? - I'm not Goth.
Emo.
Do you know how old you sound right now? Y [SCOFFS.]
[RUMBLING IN DISTANCE.]
Um W-Why don't you Uh, do you want to just tell me what that was, Reese? Oh, God.
- [RUMBLING CONTINUES.]
- Look! Look at that! - [RUMBLING STOPS.]
- That was a meteor! - [EXPLOSION IN DISTANCE.]
- Was that a meteor? It sure as hell looked like it.
I mean, your mom would definitely not want us - to go check that out.
- I know.
But, I mean, we're definitely gonna go check that out, right? KEVIN: I can't see anything.
Wait, I don't we s REESE: It just looks like a regular rock.
I thought it would look more like a space thing.
I wouldn't touch it! [EXPLOSION.]
[KEVIN SCREAMING.]
[THUDS.]
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS.]
WOMAN: Transform yourself.
Transform yourself.
Transform yourself.
Transform yourself.
Transform yourself.

REESE: [DISTORTED.]
Kevin? [NORMAL VOICE.]
Kevin! What is wrong with you? Wait a minute, wait a minute.
Wha How did we get here? What are you talking about? You drove! The car? Oh, my God.
You are the worst! Well, just tell me what happened! You thought it was an awesome idea to touch a space rock, and then you got, like, electrocuted or something.
This is so weird.
What are you gonna do with it, anyway? - With what? - The meteor! I don't want the meteor.
You brought it back with us! What? [EXHALES SHARPLY.]
W-Why did I do that? Because you're a crazy person! Well, will you help me? Reese! [CAR DOOR OPENS, DOOR SLAMS IN DISTANCE.]
[GRUNTS.]
Come on! [GASPS.]
[CAR DOOR CLOSES.]
[CAR ALARM CHIRPS.]
O'DONNELL: Have you had a chance to ingest - the material we sent? - [DOOR BEEPS.]
- Twice.
- Initial impressions? While I appreciate the midnight helicopter ride, I don't really know why I'm here.
These are meteors, not weapons.
The trajectories in Indonesia and Greenland Save it for the briefing.
We're about to start.
- Who's giving it? - You are.
[DOORS OPEN.]
O'DONNELL: Some of you may know of Dr.
Amy Cabrera from her work with the UN inspection team in Iraq.
She's a professor of aeronautical engineering and one of the best weapons analysts out there.
Professor, tell them what you told me.
Ladies and gentlemen, um, good morning.
[EXHALES SHARPLY.]
Over the last 24 hours, there have been 35 meteor strikes reported all over the globe.
While this is highly unusual, there is no evidence to suggest that it's a weapon.
There have been no ballistic missile launches that have been detected.
The trajectory GENERAL: In any given year, there are 5 to 10 meteor strikes of this magnitude.
How do you explain 35 in a day? Well, I can only tell you what they aren't, General.
O'DONNELL: Here's my problem If these are supposed to be meteors, they sure as hell don't act like them.
They don't get picked up on any telemetry until they hit the stratosphere.
Could someone be dropping projectiles from a satellite? Kinetic weapons are theoretical.
This isn't science fiction, General.
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS.]
O'DONNELL: Ladies and gentlemen, our first confirmed strike in the United States.
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS.]
- Are these coordinates correct? - Yeah.

Oh.
Really? Look, there are reports of a meteor strike close to the house.
Did you see it? [WHIRRING IN DISTANCE.]
AMY: Kevin, did you see it? Um nope, don't think so.
There's nothing for me to do here, so I'm on my way back.
But answer your phone, okay? Got it.

Bye [SIGHS.]
- [EXHALES SHARPLY.]
- [INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS.]
Okay.
- YVETTE: I have a question.
- [GASPS.]
Is it that you don't see she's hurting, or is it that you just don't know what to do? [MURMURS.]
Kevin! [SIGHS.]
KEVIN: Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
You need to calm down.
Hi, is Dr.
Sloane available? It's Kevin Finn.

[INHALES SHARPLY.]
You Threw a truck.
Is that your question? Maybe? No! No.

Are you an angel? Angels are a human construct.
Let's just say I'm a warrior for God.
Oh.
- Can I see your wings? - Okay, cool, we're done with questions.
- [SIGHS.]
- Here's what you need to understand.
You are the last of the righteous.
You have a sacred mission to restore balance to the world - by anointing 35 - [SCOFFS.]
Oh.
- new souls.
- [SIGHS.]
Got it? Got it? Um Nope.
Nope.
I definitely don't "got it.
" Um, look, I'm not righteous, okay? Go down the street to the church, I guarantee you'll find a bunch of people - more righteous than me.
- Can't you see the gift that you've been given? To serve God, to - But - To to to protect humanity? What more could one want from existence? I can think of millions of things right now.
Uh, money, naps, girls, sushi, muscles, uh, an awesome electric guitar.
Guitar lessons.
[GROANS.]
This is gonna be a problem.
Hey, here's another problem.
I don't believe in God.
Hi.
Uh I just love this song.
I just don't know the lyrics.
[CHUCKLES.]
'Cause I I don't God does not stop existing based on what you believe.
Yeah, well, I don't believe that, either.
Okay.
Well Okay.
We need to start building up your spiritual power so you can find the righteous.
- That's all.
That's all.
- Yeah, but you say that - I don't know what that means, - That's all.
- Just trust me! - TYLER: K-Dog? [LAUGHS.]
No way! It's Tyler! Hey, Ty! What's going on? Life, you know? Been working here for the past six years Like, six, seven years.
Great job free coffee, living with my mom, you know, since the divorce.

That thing with the shirt.
And with the smoothie.
Okay, what exactly is the issue? Uh, well, um [INHALES, CLICKS TONGUE.]
I think everything is beautiful, - and I don't like it.
- Oh! You're seeing the world through new eyes.
That's a sign.
- That's a good sign! - Sign of what? That you're starting to be in tune with the Universe.
We need to start strengthening that today Quickly.
Fine.
How? By doing something you seem unaccustomed to, Kevin Putting others before yourself, hmm? Living a life in service to others - [SCOFFS.]
- helping those in need.
I can think of one person right now in your life who could use a little kindness.
Someone close to you.
Someone related to you.
Someone related to me? Uh Your niece.
Reese! Oh, right.
Reese.
Good one.
Yep.
[SIGHS.]
This is gonna be harder - than I thought.
- Okay.
KRISTIN: Kevin? Oh, my God, it is you.
Kristin.
[CHUCKLES.]
- Wow.
Hey.

History.
[LAUGHING.]
I mean, sometimes I feel like I never graduated.
- Hmm.
- [SIGHS.]
It's really good that you're here.
Reese, you know, she's just - She's been through so much.
- Yeah.
I've been I've been trying to make time for her and pull her out of her shell.
So, what's, uh What's going on with you? You, uh Married or anything? - Are you serious?! - Oh! - Still single.
- [COUGHS.]
Work keeps me busy, so - Mm.
- How 'bout you? I-I heard you're a big financial investor in New York? Oh.
Uh You think now is a good time to hit on your ex? Is that what's happening? - What about Reese? - Um Yeah.
Well, I sort of got out of that business.
I'm just trying something different.
Wow.
I I'm surprised, 'cause, you know, you were always that guy who was gonna be billionaire by the time he was 30.
Yeah, well, um - My, uh - We have work to do, Kevin.
- My priorities have shifted.
- Oh.
- We have to start now.
- Um there there's, uh - There's more important things - So say goodbye.

Sure.
Well, I hope you find something that makes you happy.

I wasn't - I know.
Not I wasn't - I didn't - Okay, bye.
- Just Yeah.
- Goodbye.
- Yeah.
[WHISTLE BLOWS IN DISTANCE, INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS.]
[BALL BOUNCES.]
My mother talked to you.
Let's kick the ball around.
KEVIN: Here's the deal.
If I score on you, you don't have to do anything No soccer, no extracurricular activities.
You just stay home, listen to My Chemical Romance, and wear all the black clothes.
But if you make the save, then you have to play soccer.
This is dumb.
Well, any answer but no means yes.
Get ready for the heat! Aha! You scored.
I don't have to play.
Are we done now? Wait, wait.
Uh, no, I made a mistake.
I-I screwed up the rules.
Um, do over.
Do over! If I score, then you have to play, so give me the ball.
You think you can just come into our lives and fix everything? I don't even know you.
You're a Christmas card with 20 bucks in it.
[WHISTLE BLOWS IN DISTANCE.]
I mean, $50.
You were late to my dad's funeral, and you left early.
I I did do that.
And we haven't even seen you since then, and that was, what, 18 months ago? You want to know what you missed? My mom in bed for two weeks straight.
She's still crazy about you.
I have no idea why.
Look, I[SCOFFS.]
I suck.
I mean, I-I absolutely do.
But, um I'm here now.
You're here because you have nowhere else to go.
YVETTE: All right.
Maybe helping Reese out of gate wasn't the best idea.
I thought if I threw you in the deep end, you'd swim.
I made a mistake.
I can own that.
Keep my hands to myself Look, I thought you had more aptitude for this.
Turns out, you are fairly incompetent.
No, I think it went great.
This'll be good.
Good for what? Training.
The only job you have in life for the foreseeable future is to build up your spiritual powers through acts of kindness and selflessness.
Now, after you've done so, God is gonna show you how to find the other righteous, and then you'll anoint them with an embrace.
- A hug? - Yep.
So I'm supposed to go around hugging strangers.
Should I just register as a sex offender now, - or? - You you You know what a hug is, right? Oh, and and one more thing, and this is really important You can never tell anyone that you're one of the 36.
Why not? I don't make the rules.
Face this way.
I've been feeling it since 1966, now You've spent your life focused on things that don't really matter like money, power, sex, external appearance, but none of that's made you happy.
So once you let go of all the superficial trappings, you'll feel a peace that you've never known.
Okay.
That sounds pretty good.
- Now inhale.
- [BOTH INHALING SHARPLY.]
- And exhale.
- [BOTH EXHALING SHARPLY.]
And let go over everything in your life that has no spiritual value.
Give in to that easy living, goodbye to my hopes and dreams [EXHALES SHARPLY.]
[ENGINE REVS.]
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! Let me kick it like it's 1986 now Might be over now - Great.
- But I feel it still - Lesson over.
- Might've had your fill But you feel it still PURCELL: Well, I think we're done here, Kevin.
I'm gonna write this up as no liability.
Charlie feels awful.
Well, it's not his fault.
We all know whose fault it is! All right, then.
- How's your sister doing? - She's okay.
Oh, wait.
You had a thing for her in high school, didn't you? [EXHALES.]
You're free to go.
Give that to your insurance.
I check in on them from time to time, make sure they're doing all right.
That's really cool, Nate.
Thanks.
I guess you need a lift home.
- Oh, that'd be great.
- You have to ride in the back.
KEVIN: Hey.
You're back.
[LAUGHS.]
What's, uh What's going on? Well, Ms.
Allen was kind enough to bring Reese home from school today.
At least somebody around here is responsible.
Yeah.
Cool.
Oh, it's, you know, no problem.
Anytime.
Thanks.
Heh.
So, I-I have to I'm gonna This was - Oh.
- Yeah.
- Okay.
- [CLEARS THROAT.]
Bye! - Bye Okay [ENGINE STARTS IN DISTANCE.]
So, the helicopter, that was Did you go to the meteor site? Um - Well, here's the thing - No, no, no.
I already talked to Reese.
I want to know what the hell's going on, okay, and I don't want any jokes, and I don't want any of your usual garbage.
- Ame, come on.
- Tell me the truth.
W-We did, yes.
But it was my idea.
- It was my own, personal idea.
- I can't even believe that I'm asking you this question, but - What did you do with the meteorite? - [INHALES SHARPLY.]
Ohh.
Um Oh I um, yeah Not really allowed to, uh, talk - You're lying! - No, no, no, no, no.
It's Kevin, you're putting my daughter in jeopardy.
- This isn't a joke! - Um Okay, all right.
Fine.
Sit down, sit down.
Please.
- [SIGHS.]
- Um.
.
Okay, I-I-I'm going to tell you something, and it's going to sound insane, uh, legitimately crazy.
But you know how we have that twin thing where we can read each other's minds? We don't have that.
Yes, we do.
You can always tell when I'm lying.
Because you're not a good liar.
Well, that is very disappointing to me.
- [SCOFFS.]
- Um, all right.
The truth is When we were in eighth grade, I sold your underwear to Mikey DeFalco.
- Damn it, Kevin.
- W Wait.
What did I just say? Do you like doing this to people? - No, no, no, no, no.
- Do you Do you like making people feel stupid for trusting you? No, no, no.
Wait, wait, wait.
Hold on.
All right, all right.
[EXHALES SHARPLY, CLEARS THROAT.]
Sophomore year I stole your band camp money To buy weed.
- No! - I can't believe this.
Gah! What did I just say?! I can't I can't believe that you turned into this.
Okay.
Okay.
Take a look at that.
"I slept with Connie Boccabella at your wedding"? - Seriously, Kevin, - What? you're the worst person I know.
I wrote that? No, that Kevin, you and Reese are all that I have left.
I [SIGHS.]
When you did what you did, when you tried to end your life, that almost killed me.
Because it meant that you didn't care.
No, no, no.
Amy - Amy, that is not true.
- Kevin I can't be the only person that cares about this relationship anymore.
I can't.
I can't have that around me.
I just I can't have that around Reese.
Kevin, I love you.
- I know.
- We're a part of each other.
[SIGHS.]
[EXHALES SHARPLY.]
But if you're gonna be like this, I just Uh, I - I'll go.
I'll - No, that's not what I'm saying.
- I - Y-Yeah, yeah, you are.
Hey.
Um [CLICKS TONGUE.]
So, I'm gonna go.
My mom made me tell her.
Oh.
Yeah, don't even That's not your job to lie for me.
Um Oh, but for what it's worth, she's not gonna give up on, uh, soccer.
So my advice would be to just find a thing and do it so she'll calm down.
- Uh, bye, Reese.
- Uh, that's All right.
[CELLPHONE VIBRATES.]
[SIGHS.]
Yeah? DR.
SLOANE: Kevin, it's Dr.
Sloane.
My office said you were in crisis.
What's going on? Um [SIGHS.]
Oh, I thought I was hallucinating.
But then I thought that I wasn't.
I don't know.
Maybe maybe none of it was real.
Uh [CHUCKLES.]
Dr.
Sloane? [CLICKS TONGUE.]
Are you still there? [INHALES SHARPLY.]
Great.
Ow! - Am I real enough for you now?! - Aah! Am I real for you, Kevin?! - What is wrong with you? - What's wrong with me? - What is wrong with you? - [SIGHS.]
Do you understand what's at stake here? The world is not gonna end if I go home.
There are worse things than the end of the world, but you already know that, Kevin.
Think about how you felt when you tried to take your own life.
Now imagine the whole of humanity feeling that way.
That is what the world faces without the righteous.
I think that you should just go back to wherever it is that you came from, 'cause I'm done with all of this and with you.
- I can't.
- [BAG JOSTLES.]
- [SIGHS.]
Can't what? - Go back.
Coming here was a one-way ticket.
I gave up paradise for you.

He told me if I can find enough loose change rolling around his car, we could stop for ice cream.
So I'd dig around the floor, in between the seats, and I'd always find just enough money I needed for ice cream.
Even when I figured out he was just putting the money there, I never said anything.
He never said anything.
Soccer was something we did together.
It was our thing.
It was never my thing.
So I just don't want to play anymore.
