00:53Boys' room down the hall, third door on your right.
01:00Is there a problem?
01:04Uh, well, I'm finished.
01:12Kid, what are you even doing here?
01:15Uh, taking the test, same as you.
01:18Wait, how old are you?
01:21Uh, 14.
01:22Are you a genius, like in a movie?
01:25Well, I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night.
01:30Wait, what did you get for the last question in the map about the hotel?
01:33Do you remember?
01:34Uh, it was A.
01:37Shit, are you sure?
01:56I got C.
01:58Uh, you know, that's how they get you.
02:01C is a terrific equation, really.
02:03But, uh, so you're already figuring the room tax into the nightly charge.
02:07So when you multiply everything inside the parentheses...
02:10You end up counting it twice.
02:14That's okay, you know.
02:15I'm sure you got the rest of them right.
02:17No.
02:18I forgot how to calculate the fucking tax.
02:21I suck.
02:23Is it weird being you?
02:28And that's an I.
02:30There's an I?
02:31Yeah, sure.
02:32K-U-S-I.
02:34Is it strange we always play with animals I've never heard of and can't spell?
02:38Oh, nice try, Ralph.
02:41Euro, step into a reverse layup.
02:43Nothing but net.
02:44In your dreams, Gobert clearing out for Ellis,
02:46and he's going to take his man off the dribble
02:48and use the Euro step into the...
02:50Nice shot, phenom.
02:52You almost had it.
02:53But that Euro step is looking slick as hell.
02:55Shit, man.
02:56What's wrong?
02:57My Timberwolves jersey, man.
02:58It's ripped.
02:59I'm sure your mom can sell it.
03:00No big deal, man.
03:02Please, can I have your attention?
03:04Ladies and gentlemen,
03:05the sooner we get one more volunteer,
03:07the sooner we can board you all,
03:08and we'll still have a shot at an on-time arrival.
03:11We've already been waiting here an hour.
03:12Yeah, that's right.
03:14We're offering a courtesy booking
03:17on the 6.45 a.m. departure tomorrow,
03:21as well as a hotel voucher
03:24and a $200 credit.
03:28My mistake, that's $200 cash.
03:34$400, plus the hotel and rebooking.
03:37Now she's a game show host.
03:38Do I hear $1,000?
03:41$600.
03:42Ma'am.
03:45$600.
03:46Plus a cash refund for my ticket.
03:48You got yourself a seat.
03:55This is Keith.
03:56Leave a message.
03:57Hey, Keith.
03:58It's Tim.
03:59Listen,
04:00I don't think I'm gonna make it out to New York
04:02after all.
04:03I hope your dad knows how much
04:04I appreciate the offer.
04:06I know he doesn't really need
04:07an extra guy on a routine
04:08exactly typed,
04:09but I just think...
04:15I just really wouldn't be
04:16any good to him right now anyway.
04:18So...
04:45thanks.
04:46Not a rapist?
04:48Or a psychotic?
04:49No, ma'am.
04:50Of course, that's exactly
04:51what a psychotic would say.
04:54Going as far as Maine?
04:56Duffel suggests you might be.
04:58I guess I hadn't decided.
05:00In that case,
05:01I got a proposition for you.
05:02One hand washes the other.
05:04You scratch my back?
05:05No.
05:05There'll be no back scratching
05:06if you don't mind.
05:07And I ain't asking.
05:09Thing is,
05:10I got a truck full of books,
05:1240-some boxes,
05:13each one heavier
05:14than a son of a bitch.
05:15If you help me unload
05:16and reload
05:17at each one of my stops,
05:18I'll take you as far
05:19as the public library
05:20in Denison, Maine.
05:22Sounds good.
05:24Throw your stuff in the back.
05:37We were in Principal Greer's office
05:39for almost an hour.
05:42How long have the two of you
05:44been talking about MIT?
05:49Since October.
05:51Look, he said he felt
05:53that Roger Day
05:54had taken me
05:55as far as it could.
05:57Can you agree?
05:59MIT's where you belong?
06:04Yeah.
06:05Yeah.
06:06Yeah, I think so.
06:08You know?
06:09Um,
06:10but I don't know
06:11how to
06:12say it.
06:13Try.
06:15We're talking about
06:16uprooting our lives here,
06:17so try.
06:23There's just,
06:23there's so much
06:24I want to learn
06:26and figure out.
06:28It makes me feel
06:29so small.
06:32You know,
06:32I have this dream
06:33and I'm standing
06:35and I'm standing
06:35on the edge
06:36of an abyss
06:36and it's full
06:37of all the things
06:38I don't know.
06:39And, well,
06:40I guess an abyss
06:40can't be full,
06:41so I'll call it a chasm.
06:42But it's bottomless.
06:45And there's a bridge
06:46and I want to walk
06:47across that bridge
06:48and raise my hands
06:49and then all the things
06:50from the darkness
06:50become floating up.
06:55I'm sorry.
06:56I'm sorry.
06:57Butterfingers,
06:58I'm sorry.
07:04Look,
07:06your brain
07:07and what it can do
07:09is a gift.
07:12God knows
07:13it didn't come from us.
07:15I figure that means
07:16we ought to do
07:18whatever's in our power
07:19to see how far
07:20it can take you.
07:21You know what they say
07:22about the abyss, right?
07:24You look into it,
07:26it looks right back
07:27into you.
07:30Yeah, you bet it does.
07:31Mm-hmm.
08:09It's all lights out.
08:10Copy.
08:11Standing by for your go.
08:14If the parents wake up,
08:15we might have to get wet.
08:18No choice.
08:19Make it 45 minutes to go.
08:21Copy.
08:2245 to go.
08:31needs a new school.
08:34Let's go.
08:36Do you want a new life,
08:40Oh, my God.
09:30Hello?
09:31Sure can.
09:31Whatever you want.
09:43It's the last of them.
09:48Hey.
09:49Just saw a guy win an ice hockey jersey.
09:51I figure that's the good Lord telling me to get my ass back across the Vermont line.
09:56Much obliged to you for the ride, man.
09:58It's been a pleasure getting to know you.
10:04Good luck to you, Tim.
10:20My wife hates it when I'm late for dinner, so let's just get right to it.
10:27Just got off with Boston PD.
10:30Seems you forgot a few things on your application.
10:33One, 2011, you received a commendation for life-saving again in 2018.
10:392020, you got the officer of the year.
10:42Well, they had to give it to somebody.
10:44I always showed up on time, never called in sick, so...
10:47Okay.
10:48I don't know if that is becoming modest to your low self-esteem, but I don't like it.
10:52All right.
10:54I earned that award.
10:56I applied for this job, kind of spur of the moment.
10:59More time to think, I would put it down.
11:01But you remembered to put down the incident at Westfield Mall?
11:06I figured you had a right to know.
11:09Lieutenant I spoke to said the guy he shot had an AR in 200 rounds.
11:13It wasn't a guy.
11:14It was a kid.
11:1516 years old.
11:17And, uh...
11:18He hadn't shot anybody.
11:1916 or not.
11:20Kid threw down on a cop.
11:25There you go.
11:26Lieutenant said you were off duty.
11:29Yeah, I, uh, swung by the mall after my shift, pick up some dress shoes for a wedding.
11:34Still in uniform.
11:35This woman comes running up from the parking lot, said she just saw some guy pull a rifle
11:39out of his car.
11:40So far, so good?
11:41Yeah.
11:42Yeah, right up until the moment when the responding officers smelled the alcohol on me.
11:47Gave me the test.
11:49I had two old-fashions of beachcomers right before I hit the shoe store.
11:55You were off duty.
11:56But in uniform.
11:58Department let me pick.
12:01Resignation or dismissal.
12:02You ordinarily a drinking man?
12:04I was.
12:06After that, for a while.
12:07Long enough to end my marriage, but not anymore.
12:12If I were to breathless you right now, what would you blow?
12:16Go ahead and find out.
12:18No.
12:19Don't believe I will.
12:22I don't believe I need to.
12:26Well, son, you are ridiculously overqualified for this job.
12:29But if you want it, it's yours.
12:32What if I want it?
12:34All right.
12:35You start tonight, 8 to 6.
12:37Just like that.
12:38Just like that.
12:39I don't believe I need to.
12:42I don't believe I need to.
12:45I don't believe I need to.
12:49I don't believe I need to.
12:52I don't believe I need to.
12:54I don't believe I need to.
12:58I don't believe I need to.
12:59I don't believe I need to.
12:59I don't believe I need to.
13:01I don't believe I need to.
13:02I don't believe I need to.
13:06I don't believe I need to.
13:08Let's go.
14:04I was going to change it to I choose to be crappy, but they might take away my pen.
14:09Yeah, sometimes they let shit slide, sometimes they don't.
14:12Name's Kalisha.
14:13We'll also respond to chat.
14:15Uh, what's happening here?
14:17Where are we?
14:18Welcome to the Institute.
14:20Institute of what?
14:22Okay, yeah, I remember how many questions I had my first day.
14:26You know, it's usually just easier...
14:28Are we still in Minneapolis?
14:33No, we're definitely not in Minneapolis anymore, Toto.
14:37We're in Maine.
14:38Well, at least that's what they say.
14:40Who's they?
14:42You really can't stop yourself, can you?
14:45Is that a smart kid thing?
14:48Why would you say that?
14:50Give us a rundown of all the new arrivals.
14:52Your name's Lugelis.
14:53You're from Minneapolis.
14:54You like basketball and chess.
14:56And you're smart.
14:57So, how smart are you?
15:00No, no, um, I think the real question is, are you TK or TP?
15:04That's the one thing they never tell us about the newbies.
15:06Yeah, you lost me.
15:09TP is telepathy.
15:10TK is...
15:11Telekinesis.
15:12So, which are you?
15:14Supposedly, no one's both when they get here, but, um, thinking TK?
15:20I'm TP.
15:21You read minds?
15:23Always have been able to.
15:24Off and on.
15:29Well, sometimes things move around me, but that can't be enough to...
15:33To land you here.
15:37Have we...
15:39Have we been kidnapped?
15:40They call it recruited.
15:43Like by the military?
15:45I don't know.
15:47Do our parents know where we are?
15:49Can we talk to them?
15:50No, actually, apparently our work here is too classified for any contact with the outside.
15:57I mean, well, someone must run this place.
16:00Ms. Sixby.
16:01Except for the medical stuff.
16:03That's Dr. Hendricks.
16:05Medical stuff?
16:05Oh, it's just tests, mostly.
16:07And shots.
16:08Lots of shots.
16:09Um, at least that's what it's like in front half.
16:12We're in front half right now.
16:13Is there a back half?
16:14Yeah, where we go when we graduate front half.
16:16We can see it from the playground.
16:17No, not here, but I can't really tell you what's going on in there.
16:21No contact.
16:22What does Sixby and Hendricks say?
16:24They're not real big on answering questions.
16:26When do I get to meet them?
16:28Hard to say.
16:30They usually let the newbies wander a while first.
16:32Hmm.
16:36Why would they do it like that?
16:39No one's ever thought to question that.
16:42If you'd read his file, you'd know.
16:47They want to tell us this place isn't so bad and figure we're more likely to accept it coming from
16:52another kid.
16:54Predicts he'll notice things others won't.
16:57Goes on at great lengths about his observational and analytical powers.
17:01Why make up our rules?
17:07You know, if the boy's as smart as you say, we should be considering him for the PC track.
17:14We're not having this conversation again.
17:16Why can't we...
17:16PC tracks on indefinite hold.
17:19My main priority is keep the conveyor belt moving.
17:23Move it.
17:24You've seen the latest target packages.
17:27You know how tight the keyhole's gotten.
17:33Do you have while here?
17:37He's talking to himself.
17:39Yeah.
17:41I bet he does that a lot.
17:53I think he's ready for me.
18:01You know, it's actually not so bad here.
18:02We have video games, movies.
18:04The playground's open until late.
18:07Um, just...
18:08Hey, just make sure you do what they tell you to.
18:11Also, by the way, have you ever a chicken pox?
18:13What?
18:17Kaleesha.
18:21Luke.
18:22Miss Sigsby would like a word with you.
18:25Get changed.
18:4675 years ago, I bet this was state-of-the-art.
18:50It's actually kind of cool.
18:53It's retro.
18:56Three spots in town have punch keys for it to mark your progress.
18:59Punch it at each end of Water Street.
19:01First at the station, then at the bank.
19:03Once more at Hopper's Jewelry on garish, then back to the station.
19:07The rest of the doors you can mark with chalk.
19:08Just wipe it off on your way back.
19:10It's a 2.3-mile loop.
19:13At Whitlock, used to make, uh, six circuits each shift.
19:16So that's what, uh, 14 miles?
19:20I guess I'll be getting my steps in.
19:21Sure, and I'll work out a schedule.
19:23We'll get two nights off each week.
19:24Probably Monday, Tuesday.
19:25Town's usually pretty quiet after the weekend, but we might have to shift you.
19:28If you stick around, that is.
19:31You have some issue with me, Officer Gullickson?
19:35If so, speak now.
19:38Only time will tell.
19:41Thing is, we're a good crew.
19:42We're small, but good.
19:44You're just some guy off the street.
19:46People joke about a night knocker, but it's key for a force as small as ours.
19:51Ounce of prevention's worth a pound of cure.
19:53My grandpa used to say that.
19:55Okay.
19:56He was a night knocker.
19:58That's why I applied.
20:01Night knocker's an analog job in a digital age.
20:04Maybe we're just a nanalock town.
20:07I sure hope so.
20:23Is there a stack house?
20:24Sure, can you do whatever you want?
20:27Wait.
20:28That's the first one?
20:29No.
20:30Yeah, you're dead.
20:31No.
20:42Welcome, Luke.
20:45So, you have met Mr. Stockhouse, Chief of Security.
20:50And this is Dr. Hendricks.
20:52He's the architect of the cutting-edge science we do here.
20:55My name is Ms. Sigsby, and I'm...
20:57You're the boss.
20:58I know.
20:59And you know I know because you watched Kalisha tell me.
21:02So why don't we get to the part where you tell me what's going on here?
21:06Sorry.
21:07You're just cooler than most of the first dayers we see.
21:11You went through all this trouble to get me here, and now you want me to, what, cry and scream
21:15and beg you to take me home?
21:17Would it do any good?
21:19Not at all.
21:21Please sit.
21:24Thank you, Dr. Hendricks.
21:27I'll take it from here.
21:29Uh, looking forward to working with you.
21:37Uh, sometimes our new arrivals will lash out in their disorientation.
21:48So, Mr. Stockhouse escorts each of you until we're satisfied that you're not going to hurt anyone, yourself included.
21:56But you're not going to hurt anyone.
21:58Are you, Lou?
22:01No.
22:03No.
22:09Have a survey.
22:13Okay.
22:15Jellybean.
22:17Why?
22:18So you can see which color I choose?
22:20Get a sense of my personality?
22:23No.
22:23Because I like jellybeans.
22:25I thought you might like them, too.
22:28But you like to analyze, I gather.
22:32A little more I focus on logic, the less I have to think about being kidnapped.
22:37That's not a word we use here.
22:39Right.
22:40Recruited.
22:40And let me be the first to say, congratulations.
22:47For?
22:48For being here.
22:50The work you're about to become a part of is without a doubt the most important work taking place anywhere
23:00on Earth.
23:01You are, without question, about to participate in Saving the World.
23:06Okay.
23:07I want to talk to my parents now.
23:09As Kalisha told you, that's not possible.
23:13Let me talk to them and I'll do whatever you want.
23:16This isn't a negotiation, Luke.
23:19A boy with your intellect shouldn't have any trouble understanding.
23:26Without our work, the world as we know it would cease to be.
23:33That's bigger than any of us.
23:35It's my responsibility to see that that work gets done.
23:39So, it will get done.
23:42And what exactly is our work?
23:46I'll leave it to your fellow recruits to fill you in on that.
23:50You're more likely to accept it coming from another kid.
23:54Actually, that's another word we try not to use.
23:58You're not kids.
23:59Not here.
24:00There's no bedtime.
24:01There's no chores.
24:03There's no food you're not allowed.
24:06Doing grown-up work?
24:07Should be treated like grown-ups.
24:10But at the same time, bear in mind, this is not your home.
24:14This is not your school.
24:17Here, if you break a rule, there's a grown-up consequence.
24:23And what are those rules?
24:25Glad you asked.
24:26The main rule is follow any order given from a staff member without question or delay.
24:33You'll be given a number of injections.
24:37You'll be given a number of tests.
24:39You will comply with all of them.
24:42You won't, with maybe a few exceptions, find them excessively unpleasant.
24:49Your mental and physical condition will be monitored regularly.
24:54And then when you come to the end of your service, we'll wipe your memory, send you home.
25:00Home?
25:01To my parents?
25:03Yes, of course.
25:06Are they alive?
25:07Yes, of course they're alive.
25:09We're not monsters.
25:12Do they know where I am?
25:15Generally.
25:17At any rate.
25:18I think you'll find your time here will pass quite quickly, Luke.
25:25And when you leave us and when you wake up in your own bed one morning, none of this will
25:33have happened.
25:35The only sad part is, you won't have the memory of the great privilege of having been asked to serve,
25:42not just your country, but humanity.
25:46How many, how many people does each kid here know?
25:49School, families, you can't just wipe all their memories.
25:54You'd be surprised what we can do.
26:02Pleasure meeting you.
26:06My room, it's not supposed to make me feel comfortable, right?
26:13You're just supposed to let me know you're trying to make me comfortable.
26:18I know.
26:20This feels like a very dark time for you, Luke.
26:25But if you'll simply do as you're told, before you know it, you'll be back out in the sunshine.
26:33Maybe hitting some baskets with Ralph.
27:22I'm telling you, Patriots.
27:24My outsider arms are in the sunshine.
27:25I'm telling you, Patriots.
27:25I'm telling you, Patriots.
27:27I'm telling you.
27:28I'm telling you, Patriots.
27:28I'm telling you, Patriots.
27:28They don't want you to know.
27:30Because they don't think you can handle the truth.
27:33But we can't handle it.
27:35Hi.
27:36Hm.
27:36Must be Ed Whitlock's replacement.
27:39I heard a rumor they found one.
27:41Tim Jameson.
27:42New night knocker.
27:43Ha ha.
27:44Annie Ledoux.
27:45Old weirdo.
27:46For millennia.
27:47But no more...
27:48Hey, remind me.
27:49Who was this guy again?
27:51You don't know George Allman.
27:53Oh, I know.
27:54Still got your blinders on, huh?
27:56Do you have any fillings?
27:59Sorry?
28:00Open your mouth.
28:02Because...
28:03That's how they listen.
28:06Yeah.
28:09Ah.
28:10Ah.
28:10Oh, good.
28:11Someone was smart enough to get you gold.
28:15Well, that was the army, and I'm sure they just got whatever was cheapest.
28:19You know, they might have remembered where porcelain comes from.
28:24You, uh, you think that the Chinese government is bugging our mouths?
28:33Kidding, right?
28:35Am I?
28:37Sport?
28:40My mom used to call me Sport.
28:42I know.
28:44After the fella from that stage show, with all the black folks in it, um...
28:49Pork and...
28:50Pork and beans or something.
28:51Pork and beans?
28:55How do you...
28:57Know that?
28:58Hmm.
28:59Do yourself a favor.
29:01Start listening to George's Gems.
29:04Because there are things going on every day in this world...
29:09That you would not fucking believe.
29:35Looks like I just barely caught you.
29:38Thought I had 48 hours liberty.
29:41Just touching base.
29:43You got the dossier for the next recruit?
29:46Yeah.
29:47Kid's got a chaotic family situation.
29:49Might complicate the snatch.
29:51Makes the cover story easier.
29:53Soon as you're back, we'll go through scenarios.
29:56Make sure you know the dossier.
29:59I always do.
30:05The Ellis snap...
30:06It's no good looking backward.
30:09It went how it went.
30:10It only went wrong, because they made us rush it.
30:17Soon as the MIT news broke, the Ellis kid was gonna get a bunch of publicity.
30:22The decision was made.
30:24Well, I wish those bastards would come with us in an op sometime.
30:26See the consequences of their decisions.
30:33Sorry, sir.
30:49No, no, no.
30:55Even more.
30:56I love here.
30:57No horse.
30:57Well...
30:57Argh.
31:03Now, see you help?
31:32Hey.
31:34We got a bogey.
31:35Copy that.
31:58How can we help you folks?
32:01Ah.
32:02I don't know.
32:03I guess we took the wrong exit off of 161.
32:05And by the time we realized that we're a mile deep in these woods, we got no cell service.
32:09Yeah, these pines.
32:10They play hell with your signal.
32:11Huh.
32:15What's...
32:15What's over there?
32:17Infectious disease lab.
32:21Oh.
32:22Oh.
32:22Oh.
32:26Oh.
32:27Oh.
32:27Oh.
32:27Look.
32:29Oh.
32:30They're right at the port, just get your way back out.
32:34Left, then right.
32:35Let's go, Will.
32:36Yeah, we're going. Thanks.
32:38Sure thing. Folks, take care.
32:55Does Dixby explain about the tokens?
32:58No.
33:00You'd think she'd remember as many intakes as she's done.
33:06Tokens are a reward for being a good co-operator.
33:10Let you get treats from the vending machines.
33:19Hey, pretty lady. How's it going?
33:22Just fine.
33:26How about you, Luke? Am I Justin okay?
33:33Silent treatment, huh? It's fine for now.
33:36Here's the thing. Treat us right, we'll treat you right.
33:40Go along to get alone.
33:43Words of wisdom, Luke, my boy. Words of wisdom. Come on in.
33:53We won't be a minute.
33:57Have a seat, champ.
34:08Hop on up, I said.
34:10What are you going to do? Tattoo me?
34:14Gosh, no. I'm just going to trip your earlobe, no biggie. All our guests get them. It's like getting a
34:19piercing.
34:19I'm not a guest. I'm a prisoner. And you're not putting anything in my ear.
34:25I am, though. Look, it's just a little pinch. Be over quick. Maureen will give you a bunch of tokens.
34:31What do you say?
34:31No.
34:41Are you sure?
34:43Yeah.
34:44Agh!
34:46Agh!
34:48Agh!
34:50Agh!
34:51Agh!
34:53Agh!
34:54Agh!
35:01Agh!
35:04Bet that smarts a lot more than a little pinch in the ear, huh?
35:09You want another?
35:10No.
35:12You ready to get in the chair?
35:24Now, are you going to behave? Or do we need the straw houses?
35:28Agh!
35:42All right champ you're all done for now grab you some gauze for that ear in case it bleeds

38:19Casey at the gas station
38:20he says that you guys inherited the alien spacecraft
38:24after area 51 was compromised
38:26that's why drones aren't allowed to fly over
38:29alien spacecraft huh
38:31then again June at the diner

40:03read minds
40:03right
40:04how does it work?
40:06um
40:06it's actually not as cool as people think it is
40:08I can tell you your grandmother's name
40:10but only if you put it in the front of your mind
40:13I can't go deep
40:22Rebecca
40:25I mean that's still pretty fucking cool
40:32all right
40:33it's not true love or anything
40:34so don't get that idea
40:36might not even be a favor
40:37but it could be
40:40three days after I landed here
40:41they put me into a quarantine for almost two weeks
40:43no shots for dots
40:47what the hell does that mean?
40:50point is
40:51maybe I'm still contagious
40:53you might catch it
40:54and it'll keep you in front half a little longer
40:57but I thought back half was a good thing
40:59you know one step closer to home

41:42yes TK nag
41:43wait till I tell Nikki
41:44they've been betting
41:45on what the new kids will be
41:46George always takes TK nag
41:48cause it's the most common
41:49pedestrian
41:50if you will
41:51no offense Luke
41:51but TK pause
41:53that's
41:54that's rarefied air
42:20I don't know
42:22I don't know
42:26George, knock it off.
42:30Clean it up.
42:32Holy shit.
42:33Sadly, that just about takes us to the limit of my ability.
42:37Doesn't exactly make me an X-Man.
42:39Sad truth is, TK's not good for much.
42:42No.
42:43Hendrix says the most an institute kid's ever lifted was like eight pounds.
42:47I wish it were possible to develop a really powerful TK.
42:50Hey, we could float ourselves the fuck out of here.
42:53Yeah.
42:54Iris has chosen to adopt Nikki's attitude about all this.
42:58She didn't choose anything.
43:00She's just open to the truth.
43:01Speak of the devil.
43:03Georgie here, on the other hand, he's our Agent Mulder.
43:06He wants to leave.
43:10Believe what?
43:11Oh, that everything's gonna be all right!
43:13Nikki, do you remember what we just talked about?
43:16Right, right.
43:16I just got a little carried away greeting the new arrival.
43:19Making him feel at home.
43:21What happened to your hand?
43:25I fell.
43:31Luke, meet Nikki.
43:36Luke, Alice.
43:38Yeah, I know.
43:39They always tell us about the new kids, offer rewards.
43:42We'll show you the ropes.
43:44Not for me, though.
43:46Nikki Willem won't trade us home for beads and blankets.
43:49Speaking of, who's got tokes?
43:53You know, if you weren't such a dick, you could earn some.
43:55Oh, sure.
43:56Instead of always mooching.
43:58Come on, cooperate me.
43:59Never.
44:00Rebel without a mustache.
44:03Yeah, you know, it's actually kind of gross to boycott something by having your friends buy it for you.
44:07Well, I'm not boycotting, just not cooperating.
44:11Come on, who's holding?
44:13I have two for Maureen for not crying this morning after shots for dogs.
44:20Come on.
44:21I know you've got something.
44:24Whatever.
44:26Kiss ass.
44:29Come on, Alice, let's get you something.
44:31Fun sticks.
44:39You play chess, Alice?
44:40These three suck.
44:42Diana Gibson could at least give me a half-assed game, but she went to back half three days ago.
44:47Yeah?
44:48Yeah, I play, but I've got to tell you about it.
44:51Knock in the mood.
44:52Come on.
44:53Don't be like that.
44:57Oh.
44:58Why, thank you.
44:59All yours.
45:12You know, I thought those were real cigarettes for a second.
45:15Yeah, but I thought this place couldn't get any weirder.
45:20It can always get weirder.
45:22Jesus.
45:24Is this Pleasure Island?
45:26From Pinocchio, right?
45:28Good one.
45:29That's how they get you.
45:30Off you all the grown-up shit we've been denied for so long.
45:35Smokes, booze.
45:36Cracker jacks.
45:36Ho-hos.
45:38What?
45:40Mom smelled hippie and we gave us the Arab chips.
45:42Hold on.
45:43There's booze?
45:43Yeah, you know, wine coolers mostly, you know, kid stuff.
45:47There's even a sign that says, please drink responsibly.
45:49How old are the kids here?
45:52Bobby Washington was almost 19.
45:56Oldest we know of.
45:57He went to back half a week ago.
45:59Youngest?
46:01Ten.
46:02I think.
46:03Hmm.
46:05Hmm.
46:13Look, do yourself a favor and don't let Nikki pull you into this bullshit, okay?
46:17You see the dots, say so.
46:19So if you don't say that, they know when we lie.
46:35What's wrong?
46:38What if I had a story that was bigger than you can imagine?
46:42And you'd be surprised what I can imagine.
46:45I'm serious.
46:49If you got a story like that, a story that could change everything, what would you do?
46:55I think you have an inflated sense of my career to this point.
47:00Truth is, I'm still just a stringer for a local daily.
47:04Circulation under 10,000.
47:06Negligible online presence.
47:07Well, who then?
47:09Are you going to help people?
47:12I guess I might.
47:20What if I've spent my whole life on the wrong path?
47:25What if this is my one shot at redemption and even that's not enough?
47:31I just...
47:33Do you think there's a hell?
47:38I know there is.
47:54You're right, she was unreliable.
47:56Was?
47:57It's taken care of.
47:58I need a cleaning crew.
47:59Do you have my location?
48:04I have you.
48:05Sit tight.
48:27Thanks.
48:28Thanks.
48:31Thanks.
48:32Thanks.
48:33Thanks.
48:34Oh, my God.
49:05Oh, my God.
49:40Oh, my God.
49:40Hard to keep the playground open at night, but not bother to light it.
49:45Uh, anybody flying over?
49:48Knowing them, wondering what's going on all night, you know?
49:50Middle of the deep, Maine wilderness.
49:55At least there's a moon tonight.
49:57Enough for chess, anyway.
50:00Yeah, I'm still not in the mood.
50:02Come on.
50:03What else have we got to do?
50:28I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand
50:33Walking through the streets of Soho in the rain
50:37He was looking for the place called Lee Ho Phu
50:41Gonna get a big dish of beef chow mein
50:46Ah-hoo, where are the wars of London?
50:50Ah-hoo, ah-hoo, where are the wars of London?
51:00Ah-hoo, you hear him howling around your kitchen door
51:08You better not let him in
51:13Little old lady got mutilated late last night
51:17Werewolves of London again
51:22Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
51:26Ah-hoo, werewolves of London
51:36Ah-hoo
51:48Is it a checkmate?
51:51What was that, five moves?
51:53Six
51:53And it's, uh, smothered, mate
51:56It only works if your opponent waits too long
51:58To move the pieces next to their king
52:01Yeah, next time you will
52:03Plus I was playing hurt
52:04Right, from your fall?
52:09How smart are you?
52:12I don't know
52:14Why?
52:15I need to decide, are you the kid I've been waiting for?
52:18Smart enough to know we can't stay in this place
52:22Are you like the others
52:24Can't handle the truth
52:25So they talk themselves into a fairy tale
52:27Now we get our memories wiped
52:28Go on with our lives like all this never happened
52:32Even Kalisha's still trying to believe in it
52:35Everyone but you
52:38Grow up in group homes and foster care
52:42You learn not to believe in stories
52:46You also learn
52:47That nobody's coming to the rescue
52:53I mean, if
52:54If anybody knew about this place
52:58It would already be shut down
53:01Yeah, we want out
53:02We get ourselves out
53:06So smart kid
53:08How do we get the fuck out of here?
