Light as a Feather (2018) s01e06 Episode Script

Troubled as the Tide

Previously on Light As A Feather Have you ever played Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board? The slumber party game? Before we lifted each other, she told this story about how each of us were gonna die.
Damn it, why can't I read you? So, Violet has a shrine to this Marc guy, and he killed himself.
You think she killed him? I don't know.
I know you sabotaged me, and I'm gonna prove that you killed Olivia.
Better hurry.
You might be next.
First she killed Olivia! Stay away! You're insane! Candace was right.
You're a psycho.
I'll explain.
What the hell? Oh, no.
Yeah, this is Mr.
Morris, faculty parking.
Anybody copy? Hello? Um Hey, buddy? You okay? You can't park here.
Hey! Hey, buddy! Oh.
Hey.
Hey, man, you all right? Uh Uh, this is Principal Morris, Willow Falls High School faculty parking! I need assistance! Ohh! Hey, did you ask him? Who? Captain Self-Tanner.
Richmond.
Did you ask him about Marc Regan? Couldn't help but notice he was at your place on Friday.
- No, I haven't.
- Wait, what?! McKenna, are you forgetting what's happening here? No.
Obviously not.
We're dealing with some crazy-ass black magic bullshit.
I get it, Trey.
But I'm gonna have to do it my way.
I need to find the right moment.
And when will that be? What is this? I don't know.
I just got here.
No gawking.
Get to class.
Hey, Kim, what's going on? You didn't hear? Principal Morris found Isaac passed out in his car this morning.
He's in a coma, and people are saying he ODed.
Did you hear about Isaac? Yeah.
People are saying drugs, but I don't believe it.
Are you sure? Bad decisions are in fashion now.
I wonder if Candace has heard.
No idea.
I tried calling her this weekend, - but she hasn't called me back.
- Me, either.
Although I can't say I'm shocked she didn't show today.
Good morning, students and faculty.
I just wanted to give an update on the unfortunate incident that happened over the weekend with our friend, Isaac Salcedo.
So now she's Katie Couric? I just spoke with Isaac's family, and they're super hopeful that he'll be out of the coma soon, but for now, they are asking for privacy.
I will keep you all updated as soon I learn more.
In the meantime, keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
Thank you so much, Willow Falls High.
Since when are Isaac and Violet even friends? I have no idea, but Candace was not happy about it.
Look, until we can explain all the weird shit that's been going on, we need to stay way clear of Violet.
Love to, but it just so happens I have auto shop with Vampira, and she's my damn project partner.
You've reached Candace.
Either I'm not here to take your call or Candace is not answering.
Hey, it's me.
Call me back.
Where the hell is she? Good morning, Candace.
What is this? Oh, that's some grapefruit, we have granola, - we have some tea.
- No! No this! Where am I? Oh, of course.
You were pretty sedated when you came in last night.
Here, why don't you take your medication fir - No, don't touch me! - Okay.
All right, you've been through a lot, sweetie.
But don't worry.
You're gonna get better here.
Here? Where's here? The Daybridge Center.
Where's my phone? It's in a safe place with the rest of your things.
We can call your mother if you like.
- Yes! Call her! - Okay.
Just sit tight and relax.
We all just want you to get better.
The doctor will be in shortly.
Wait, doctor? All right, guys, I want to do 20 sprints today.
I want to work on some of the same stuff from yesterday.
We're gonna do 20 forehands, 20 backhands.
I want to do volleys at the net, and, uh Uh, actually, head out to the court now and do the new stretching routine Coach gave you guys and some suicide lines, and I'll be right there.
- Cool? - All right, cool.
Thanks, guys.
Hey, uh, Richmond.
Heard you were down here.
I'm looking at a new assistant coaching job.
- What do you want? - I don't want a fight.
I just If this If this is about my sister, I don't want to hear you talk about her, or even say her name.
Look, there is some dangerous stuff happening, and McKenna is too afraid to tell you about it.
What?! I've seriously about had it with all your bullshit.
I get it.
We don't like each other, but you need to tell me everything you know about Marc Regan.
Marc? Why why Marc? Did he ever talk to you about his girlfriend? Violet? Why is this so important? It's about McKenna.
And Olivia.
Did either of them tell you about the game they played on Halloween night? All right, the assignment is simple.
Each team must disassemble and document each part of these carburetors and then put them back together again.
Get to it.
We need to drain the oil pan first.
Thanks, I know.
What? I'm sending you a link.
My parents took my phone.
Okay, so check it when you get it home.
Thanks for your concern, but I'm clean now.
I wasn't thinking about you.
I was thinking about McKenna's sister.
It's funny, everyone's so concerned about you and these pills, and then there's Jennie, who died of a heart attack, triggered by drugs.
It's crazy no one's figured it out yet.
Especially McKenna.
Work faster.
I don't want an "F.
" Or I could just shoot this on over to McKenna.
Stop! Just What do you want? We have to play Light as a Feather again.
You, me, McKenna and Candace.
- Why? - Because I said so.
Help convince them.
Or it all comes out.
Hey, how was Violet in auto shop? - McKenna - What? Alex, what's wrong? I just I need to tell you something.
What is this? Me and Richmond hugged it out down in the locker room.
Yeah, he told me about what happened to Olivia during the car crash.
And about the game at the cemetery.
So you think we're insane now? No.
Not if you believe it.
Is this real, McKenna? I just I didn't want to make things weirder between us, and I didn't want you to think that I was crazy, or that I was making stuff up about Olivia.
But, yeah, I think it's real.
Okay.
Then I'll call Mrs.
Regan.
I told you that I was going to tell him about this.
I'm sorry.
It just came out.
People are either gonna think that we're crazy or that we were somehow involved in Olivia's death if they hear the type of stuff that we have been saying.
We can't just babble about this type of stuff.
Do you think I'm saying anything to anyone? Despite the fact that everybody looks at me sideways and thinks I got Olivia killed.
Henry deserves to know.
He's in this, too.
Thank you so much, Mrs.
Regan.
I really appreciate it.
Oh, my God! Are you okay!? What happened? What happened? McKenna, that was exactly like Violet said it would be.
Violet predicted this.
The Regans? Yeah.
We'll go after school.
Hey, do you need to go to the nurse or anything? I'm fine.
Are you kidding me? I I don't So lesson not learned, obviously.
McKenna, wait! On top of everything else, I have to deal with that, too? I don't get it.
All the plants are dying.
Maybe it's the tap water.
I should get a filter Hey, you okay? Yeah.
It's just, uh it's been a day.
Well, Isaac is stable, but nobody can make heads or tails of the toxicology.
Is he gonna be okay? You wanna, I don't know, see a movie later or? Um, actually, Henry's gonna pick me up.
Oh.
Things are getting serious, huh? Um, yeah.
Kind of.
I don't I don't know.
I mean, Henry's great.
It's just not quite Everything you thought it'd be? Yeah.
I just I don't know if I can handle that right now.
Hey, you are the strongest person I know.
Mom.
Do you need a box of condoms from the hospital pharmacy? Mom! Gross.
Well Okay, sorry.
What's up? With me or Flannery O'Connor? Seriously? Dad, I'm just doing my homework.
Glad to hear it.
This is it.
All right, uh, you are gonna wait here.
What the hell? You already pissed her off once.
He's right.
Fine.
And just Can you not lean on my car? Please? Thanks.
He's so polite.
He says "please" and everything.
Can you please be nice? I'm tired of being mad at you.
You've been mad at me for years.
I figured you were used to it.
Well, I was getting over it until you dragged him into this.
I was starting to remember what it was like to be your friend.
I miss that.

You're welcome.
So did you end up at USC? Oh, yeah, yeah, I did.

Um I have to say, it's a little more competitive than I thought it would be.
Well, I am sure you are more than equipped to handle it.
Thanks, Mrs.
Regan.
I'm doing my best.
Um, how how are you? How's the flower garden? You are so sweet to remember.
It's, uh You know, my lilacs are flourishing, but my morning glories not so much.
What about the lemon tree in the backyard? Doin' great.
Right, that makes sense.
Is she at USC with you? No, she's a senior in high school, but, uh, we've known each other since we were little kids.
Right, McKenna? Sorry? I was I was just telling her how we've known each other since we were really young, but just recently Right, yeah.
Um I guess we realized how we felt about each other after what happened to Olivia.
Olivia? What happened, Henry? You didn't You didn't hear about any of that? No.
Oh, well, uh, she was, um in a in a car accident.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
- I'm so sorry.
- No, I'm I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to bring your day down.
I know this might sound kind of crazy, but, um, something strange happened with Olivia's death.
What do you mean? She had a run-in with a girl, and we think maybe Marc knew her.
Violet Simmons? Henry.
Wow.
I think you need to leave.
- Miss Regan.
- You need to get out! How dare you?! Get out! - Real subtle, McKenna.
- I'm sorry.
I couldn't stand it.
I had to say something.
What happened? Mentioning Violet did not go well.
Huh.
So I guess she hates us all now.
Who's this? You want to know about Violet? You you knew Violet? They're all dead.
Just so you know.
What? All of them.
You're already dead, too.
Oh, what the hell? - Why do you - You played the game.
They wouldn't let me.
Light as a Feather? At boarding school.
They said it was for older kids only, said I couldn't play, but I watched.
And then they all died.
Lena! Get in here! Marc didn't kill himself.
He was pushed.
So, that kid was cool.
What the hell, McKenna? "You're already dead"? What does that mean? These are all obituaries.
She said they played the game.
Like you guys.
We have to tell Alex and Candace about this.
Where are they? I don't know.
I think we're all mad at each other.
Can you figure that out, please? Hey, Alex.
You don't look so good.
Ms.
Preston, you're not helping with my self-esteem right now.
Uh, can I see Candace? Come on in.
You need something to eat? I can't.
I mean, I've already had dinner.
Well, you need something.
I just need to talk to Candace.
I haven't heard from her since the pep rally.
Well, sweetie Candace isn't here.
What? Where'd she go? Alex, I just feel awful.
The police were talking about a psychiatric hold, and that would go on her permanent record.
So what's happening? Candace is just spending a couple of nights at a therapy center.
A what? It sounds scarier than it is.
It's just a nice place where kids can go to get a little relaxation and therapy.
After everything that you girls have been through, I'm just glad your friend recommended it.
My friend? Hey, Alex.
Don't worry.
Daybridge is great.
I spent some time there after I suffered from a loss.
Oh, right, your parents.
Or did you mean Marc Regan? Wait, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, no, wait.
Wait, guys, you don't understand, please.
Wait.
Look, I can't go under there.
Please.
Trust me.
It's hard before it gets easier.
No, no, no, no.
I can't go underwater.
Please, listen to me.
Please.
No, no, please.
No, stop, please! Stop! Stop! You don't understand, please! I can't go on the water, you know this! No! No!
