00:06and the once uninhabited island 42 nautical miles from the coast of colonial new england

00:54she's seen here preparing the evening meal we also have her journal so where are you all from
01:03we've never had so many visitors
01:09so
01:55There, uh, there's no cell reception on the island.
01:59Thanks.
02:01Can I help?
02:04No, I have a map. Thanks.
02:06Yeah, I made it. Warning, it's not to scale.
02:10I'm sorry. I'm the mayor. Um, my, my, my photo's on page four.
02:20Huh. Well, that's fun.
02:22Um, well, then you should probably know the map isn't the problem.
02:26It's your street signs.
02:28Unless this actually is Dickhole Street.
02:32It's, it's not. Um, where are you headed? Can I offer you a ride?
02:37Uh, all right. Just don't murder me.
02:45We got in last night, but we just went to bed.
02:49There was a time we would have picked Vegas, but these days, if that's where it's in a place like
02:53this, it's a little more our speed.
02:55Are you getting married?
02:57Me? No. No. Just a bridesmaid.
03:01Oh.
03:02We're staying at the inn.
03:04How, how's your stay?
03:06It's nice. It's quaint.
03:08Great?
03:09Yeah.
03:10Man, if I lived here, I would go to the beach with a coffee and a crossword every morning.
03:15Oh, well then you should go to the opening tour. I'm, I'm, I'm doing the inaugural swim.
03:20Uh, it's, it's just one of the island traditions.
03:23The mayor swims in the ocean every year to show that it's, it's safe from the island's history of ocean
03:30dangers.
03:33Interesting.
03:34Yeah. We're also hosting a, a sense of cocktails event after, um, I mean, if you and your friends are
03:40looking for some nightlife.
03:42Tonight, the girls were talking about going to Barnabas Tavern. It's supposed to be a dive bar.
03:47Yeah.
03:48Do you, do you go there?
03:50Yeah, sometimes.
03:53Well, maybe I'll see you there then.
03:56Yeah. Yeah. Maybe.
04:02Well, some of the cash businesses downtown are balking at the idea of the city sales tax.
04:07They said, um, actually they said, if you want this blood money, you got to come and get it yourself,
04:12which felt threatening.
04:14So, I don't know. I'm at a loss. What do you think, Tom?
04:20Yeah. Yeah. No.
04:22Of course.
04:23Yeah, that's great. Hey, um, are we getting the word out about the sunset cocktails? I, I just, I just
04:30feel like no one knows about it.
04:33I have personally been spreading the word and Rosemary's been passing out flyers all morning.
04:39Yeah, I think she's just been smoking outside. You really need to stay on top of this because I spoke
04:43to a woman, hadn't heard about any of it.
04:45What woman?
04:47Just a woman.
04:48Where did you speak to her?
04:49Uh, in my car.
04:50I don't understand.
04:52Well, she, uh, she was lost, so I offered her a ride because it seemed like the right thing to
04:56do.
04:57Of course. Excuse me.
04:58That's fine. Anyway, let's, uh, let's just make sure every accommodation has all the info.
05:04Restaurants, too. And, um, oh, I also want to talk about music.
05:07What music we're going to play when I walk from the platform to the ocean for the swim.
05:11Because I don't want that to be awkward.
05:12Was she attractive?
05:13I, I didn't notice one way or the other.
05:15How old was she?
05:16She was, she was age appropriate.
05:20What an odd way to describe someone who you were just giving a ride.
05:25Well, Patricia, as mayor, um, the safety of the residents of and visitors to our seaside village is my top
05:34priority.
05:35So if a woman is stranded and needs my help, yes, I'm going to offer it.
05:38Okay, so what is the age cut up? Because you once saw me with a flat tire and you kept
05:42on driving.
05:43No, I didn't see you.
05:44Ruth doesn't even have a car. She walks to work.
05:45Well, I thought you enjoyed the exercise.
05:49Uh, hey, Ruth, um, may I offer you a ride tonight?
05:53Oh, no. Thank you.
05:55Yeah.
05:56It's the mornings that are hard.
06:12Nobody out.
06:13One of the most.
06:14We're trying to minimize the damage.
06:17Detroit, two in the first.
06:20And now Boston's in another jam here.
06:22We're the top of the Detroit order coming out of the fourth.
06:34Hello.
06:37Hey.
06:40Am I catching you at a bad time?
06:42No.
06:44Where are you going?
06:46Meeting colleagues at the Barnabas.
06:50Colleagues?
06:51Yeah.
06:51Colleagues.
06:53Oh, yeah.
06:54Well, I'm going to be home.
06:56Right.
06:57Because you're grounded.
06:58Yeah, of course.
07:07Did you change Dickens Street to Dickhole Street?
07:11Somebody did that?
07:13That's horrible.
07:17Have a good time with your colleagues.
07:19Mr.
07:46Thanks.
08:30Excuse me, ma'am?
08:36Miss?
08:38Do you need a ride?
08:47Miss?
09:00Hello?
09:22Fuck.
09:25Fuck.
09:52Did you write that down?
09:53Mm-hmm.
09:54Love it.
09:55She's probably a homeless woman who got a free ride on the ferry.
09:57But you should call the mental hospital.
09:59It's on the mainland.
10:00You know, just in case.
10:01And set up a perimeter around the island.
10:04The island has a perimeter.
10:05It's called the ocean.
10:07Oh, okay.
10:08I don't know where your patience is this morning, but did you write down she was fast?
10:12Yes.
10:15I...
10:15Listen, I had...
10:23You sure this wasn't an animal that did this to you?
10:26No.
10:26Why?
10:27Does it look like an animal wound?
10:29Not to me.
10:30Then why would you...
10:33I can still swim in the ocean with this, right?
10:34Of course you can't.
10:37Isn't salt water good for wounds?
10:38Remind me.
10:39Where did you get your M.D.?
10:41I'm...
10:41I'm not doing this with you again.
10:42I had to swim today.
10:43I have to go in the ocean.
10:44You did your residency with Dr. MacArthur, right?
10:47Stop!
10:47Stop it!
10:48Stop it!
10:48I'm sorry.
10:49It's just everything's planned.
10:50People will be waiting.
10:57Free drinks and a sunset.
11:00Oh, Tom!
11:00What?
11:02What happened to your arm?
11:03Oh, I...
11:04I got scratched by an elderly...
11:07woman.
11:08Was she in her forties?
11:12You know what?
11:12I was trying to do something nice.
11:14I saw a woman walking alone late at night.
11:16and I offered her a ride.
11:18She scratched me.
11:18Now I won't stop leaving.
11:19Tom, you just missed a visitor.
11:21Marissa.
11:23Uh...
11:23Oh, Marissa?
11:25She was here?
11:25What did she say?
11:27Uh, she asked if you were here.
11:29I said no.
11:30Oh, did she leave a number?
11:32No.
11:33About...
11:34Oh, but she said...
11:42Ruth?
11:43Yes.
11:44Oh, she said...
11:45Yeah.
11:46Uh, maybe she'd see you at, uh...
11:50swim...
11:50There's one more word.
11:51Just a minute.
11:53Oh.
11:54Today.
11:56Thanks.
11:59I officially hope of you.
12:00I officially hope of you.
12:02I officially hope of you.
12:05Sounds like the sea hag.
12:08The what?
12:10Your scratch.
12:12Old fisherman's lore.
12:13You heard of it?
12:14No.
12:15Because I can't keep track of the amount of bullshit this island spews.
12:18No, please don't settle in.
12:20Rosemary, whatever weird tale you're about to tell me, I don't want to know.
12:23Story goes...
12:24The hag targets lonely sailors and follows them home at night.
12:28She scratches you and she gets some of your skin under her fingernails so she can track you down like
12:36a bloodhound.
12:37She's a trickster.
12:40Waits until she's got you alone.
12:42Got you weak.
12:56No, no, you can't have my water.
12:58I don't need to hear the rest of this.
13:00I don't have the time.
13:05Can't do anything right today.
13:27What's wrong?
13:29Apparently there's no way to get electricity to the beach.
13:33Why am I just hearing about this now?
13:36What?
13:37You know, this was Patricia.
13:39Where is she?
13:40Well, I think she's pretty caught up in her cocktail hour.
13:43But I radioed Garrett to have him hook us up to the marina electrical via converter and he's on the
13:47way.
13:49How fucking long is that gonna take?
13:58No rush, Garrett.
13:59Anytime.
14:06He's riding his bicycle.
14:09Jesus Christ.
14:10Oh, he stopped.
14:14Oh, no, no, no, no.
14:15Don't, don't.
14:16Don't.

29:56Hello?
29:58Hi, it's me.

30:23Oh, I mean, you can meet them tomorrow if you want.
