00:00Sorry about your friend. It's not uncommon for older apnea patients to aspirate for a heart failure.
00:05It was a heart attack.
00:08Okay, what was it?
00:10I don't know. It was a thing.
00:16A thing?
00:20Like an animal or something.
00:22What kind of animal?
00:26I don't know.
00:27We didn't see any animal.
00:29Well, I scared it off.
00:31I get it.
00:33It was dark. Shadows do weird things.
00:36You got confused.
00:37I'm not confused.
00:40I know what I saw.
00:41An animal.
00:45Something.
00:48You know what, Mr. Cooper? Why don't you take a ride with us?
00:50Get a full checkup at the hospital.
00:52Make sure you didn't knock your head or something.
00:54I thought you said I was okay.
00:55Hey, better safe.
00:59Nothing wrong with my head.
01:01Okay.
01:02You start to feel lightheaded or confused or anything at all.
01:05Just call out the seraphim.
01:06Yeah, I don't need anyone's help.
01:10Fair enough.
01:33Another beautiful day in the burrows.
01:35Let's go.
01:35I'm sorry.
03:50Good morning.
03:52Good morning, love.
04:00I'm thinking about maybe going to that good farmer's market and looking square to get him.
04:04Oh, yeah, I need shallows for this much.
04:09Now come with me.
04:12What's this?
04:21Lily?
04:23Lily?
04:24Lily, stop.
04:27Stop!
04:38Yeah?
04:39Yeah.
04:39What the hell?
04:40Excuse me?
04:41Were you ever going to tell me what happened?
04:44What happened?
04:45They snipped someone broke into your house and attacked you.
04:48Are you okay?
04:51Yeah.
04:52Yeah, I'm fine.
04:53Yeah, this guy, Edward, I think he's got some kind of dementia.
04:57He got confused.
04:58He broke in.
05:00Said some weird stuff.
05:01Why didn't you call me?
05:03Why didn't you call me?
05:03Oh, I knew you'd worry.
05:05Oh, I want to worry.
05:06Yeah, well, that's done.
05:09Thanks, Dad.
05:11What is that tapping sound?
05:17There's an owl in the walls.
05:19What are you talking about?
05:21An owl?
05:22Claire, I can't talk right now.
05:23Okay, what's going on?
05:24I'm confused.
05:25I am not confused.
05:27But that's not what I said.
05:29I gotta go.
05:30I got something to do.
05:31Dad, I...
05:35Hey, look who's up.
05:37I made you breakfast.
05:40Have a seat.
05:43I picked some raspberries on my hike yesterday.
05:47I figured I'd make you some special pancakes, like the old days.
05:54John Gunther, he said,
05:57all happiness depends on a leisurely breakfast.
06:01I'm allergic to raspberries.
06:04Since when?
06:10Right, right.
06:13Well, there's some bacon there.
06:17Some juice.
06:18Help yourself.
06:20I gotta meet the guys for golf.
06:23You know how wonk gets if I'm late for tea off.
06:27Coffee's on.
06:29Don't worry about the dishes.
06:30I'll get them later.
06:31Sorry about the mess.
06:36Okay, then.
06:38See you tonight.
06:42Bye.
06:44Bye.
07:10Hey, Franklin.
07:13Here's my trails, Art.
07:14Perfect day for a hike.
07:16You stay hydrated out there.
07:18Desert heat sneaks up on you.
07:20Yeah, well, I'm an Eagle Scout.
07:23Always prepared.
07:29I can feel the darkness in your shadow.
07:36Such a shame about Jack.
07:38He was such a nice boy.
07:41I liked him.
07:43Um, I really liked him for about two months last summer.
07:47Yes, well, they're having a memorial at Senior Cusina's tonight.
07:53Oh, crap.
07:54Who holds a memorial in a Mexican restaurant?
07:57It was Jack, obviously.
07:59It could be fun.
08:00I went to Rebecca's memorial at the chess club last month.
08:04That was bleak.
08:06Would they know how to replace half of the chess set?
08:10What?
08:11My granddaughter bought me the most beautiful chess set last Christmas.
08:16And the other night, all of the white pieces just vanished.
08:20Poof.
08:20Gone.
08:21What were they made out of?
08:22Out of a white shit?
08:24Of course.
08:25I think.
08:26I think.
08:27I think.
08:29I think.
08:45Oh, it's a waste of time.
08:47Oh, it is not a waste of time.
08:50These studies are from the leading minds in alternative cancer research throughout Europe and Asia.
08:55Okay, we both know what alternative means, Wally.
08:57It means non-Western.
08:59It doesn't mean invalid.
09:01These treatments have all been debunked.
09:02Just like the apricot seeds and the hypnosis you insisted we try.
09:07Miracle cures aren't real.
09:09Well, miracles are all I got.
09:15What did your oncologist in Santa Fe say?
09:17I haven't talked to him yet.
09:18Why not?
09:19He stopped returning my calls.
09:22Wally.
09:23You're a doctor.
09:25Yeah.
09:25Probably a better doctor than I'll ever be.
09:27Yeah.
09:32A patient comes to me.
09:34He's in his 60s.
09:36Early 60s.
09:36Has stage four prostate cancer.
09:38He's tried surgery, radiation, chemo, even proton beam therapy.
09:42Nothing's worked.
09:44And now the cancer's spread to his liver.
09:49What would you tell him?
09:51I'd tell him to try the apricot seeds.
10:02All right, come on, everybody.
10:04With me.
10:04Let's go.
10:06All right, here we go.
10:07Come on.
10:09Get.
10:10Keep up.
10:11Hold.
10:12Can I help you?
10:13Betty, come here.
10:14Tell this man what you told me in Pilates class.
10:17My granddaughter bought me a chess set, which she should not have done because her great
10:21husband just got laid off from his job.
10:23And I know it cost her a pretty penny.
10:26But she is the sweetest girl.
10:28Betty, tell them about your missing chess pieces.
10:31My chess pieces are missing.
10:33Her quartz chess pieces.
10:35Just like the quartz jewelry that's missing from my classroom.
10:38Just like the quartz coasters that vanished from Paul's kitchen.
10:42We all have the same story.
10:44I mean, there is a thief out there who is stealing our worthless shit.
10:48So what are you going to do about it?
10:50I guess I better file a report.
10:53Great.
10:55There is one problem, though.
10:57Oh, here we go.
10:59Well, if I file this report, Hank is probably going to fire me, which means I could starve to
11:04death unless you promise to take me to dinner.
11:08I'll take you.
11:10I'm watching you, Betty.
11:13So what do you say?
11:15If you get fired.
11:18With candles.
11:19And a nice glass of wine.
11:20No Applebee's.
11:21No Applebee's.
11:23Pass.
11:24Renee.
11:25I remember, too.
11:35Here we go, Edward.
11:38Right here.
11:39Okay.
11:40You want me to stick around?
11:41No.
11:42We're fine.
11:43Okie dokie.
11:44I'll be right over there if you need anything.
11:47And, uh, do me a favor.
11:48Try not to rile him up.
11:50He's having a good day.
11:52Understood.
11:57You remember me, Edward?
11:59I think so.
12:02You remember my house?
12:05Your house?
12:07You remember what you told me about the owl in the walls?
12:11Here's your coffee.
12:14Two vanilla lattes.
12:16One with oat milk and one regular.
12:22Enjoy.
12:24Vanilla's my favorite.
12:32I need you to focus, Edward.
12:35I need you to tell me about the owl.
12:38You ready to go, champ?
12:40Go?
12:41Where are we going?
12:42To the park, Joey.
12:42No.
12:43I'm not Joey.
12:44I'm Sam.
12:45It's a good day to fly a kite.
12:46Focus, Edward.
12:48I need you to tell me about the owl in the walls.
12:50Where's your kite?
12:51How are you going to fly a kite without a kite?
12:53There's no kite.
12:56There's no park.
12:57I'm not Joey.
12:58I'm Sam.
12:59Sam.
13:00Damn it.
13:02I need you to tell me about the owl in the wall.
13:06Vanilla's my favorite.
13:10Sam.
13:21Sam.
13:28Look, Dad.
13:30I found my kite.
13:32That's the beaut, Joey.
13:34Why don't you take it?
13:35You can hold it so I don't lose it again.
13:37I'll put it with the others till we can take it for a proper spin.
13:42Kites are made to be flown.
13:43Sure thing, Dad.
13:49You're not Joey, are you?
13:53I'm afraid not.
13:54You're the one looking for the owl.
13:57That's right.
14:04I caught one.
14:07You did?
14:08I locked it up.
14:10Where?
14:11You need the key.
14:13Key?
14:14What key?
14:14The key is in the light.
14:16The owl is in the walls.
14:18The key is in the light.
14:19The owl is in the walls.
14:20The key is in the light.
14:21The owl is in the walls.
14:23The key is in the light.
14:24The owl is in the walls.
14:25Okay Edward, it's time to go back to your room.
14:27You have to rile and obtain you.
14:29The owl is in the walls.
14:29The owl is in the walls.
14:32The owl is in the walls.
14:34We're going back to your room Edward.
14:36The owl is in the walls.
14:39The key is in the light.
14:41But the owl is in the walls.
14:42The key is in the light.
14:44The key is in the light.
14:55The owl is here.
14:55The owl is in the light.
14:56The owl is here.
15:13The owl is here.
15:20The owl is here.
15:23Hey, Bruxy.
15:25You been keeping an eye on the mushrooms?
15:29All right, come on.
15:30There you go. You heard it.
15:32That's it.
15:39Jack died last night.
15:43That's right.
15:44You guys been fucking my wife.
15:47I guess I should be glad that he's dead.
15:49But I'm not.
15:51I looked the other way, Brooks.
15:54I looked the other way for a long time.
15:57Because if I didn't, I was afraid she might leave.
16:01But when I saw her face this morning,
16:08she wasn't sad.
16:12Her heart was broken.
16:16I knew she was sleeping with him.
16:20And now I'm afraid that maybe she loved him, too.
16:23Hmm.
16:25You know what a psychopomp is, Brooks?
16:27Hmm?
16:28You ever heard that before?
16:31Some cultures believe that's what you crows are, psychopomps.
16:37Spectral beings who escort the souls of the dead to their eternal rest.
16:46Maybe you are.
16:48Maybe you are.
16:49I don't know.
16:52But if you happen to see Jack out there, hmm.
17:00Take him someplace nice.
17:11Don't know why there's no sun up in the sky.
17:19He's not about to be a man.
17:33All the time.
17:40Oh, yeah.
17:43He's been busy with our friends.
17:49Everywhere, stormy weather, stormy weather, but I just can't get my poor self together.
18:03Oh, I'm weary all of the time, yeah.
18:48I'm weary all of the time.
19:00I'm weary all of the time.
19:19Is this memory foam?
19:21I think so.
19:23Your one comes with Bluetooth speakers, you know what that means?
19:26What?
19:27I could be your afterlife DJ.
19:29Oh, please, no Phoebe Bridgers.
19:32That mumbling is so depressing.
19:34I'm sorry, I don't take requests.
19:36So, what do you think, Ronnie?
19:39Um, I think you're gonna lie in a few more coffins and complain that that one's too Bela Lugosi and,
19:45oh, that one's mahogany.
19:47And mahogany reminds me of my stepdad's study, and we're gonna waste half of our afternoon until I drag you
19:53out of there and across the street for a Manhattan.
19:57Just like the last five times.
20:00Hmm.
20:01I'll take it.
20:03I'll get the paperwork.
20:06What are we doing?
20:07Oh.
20:08You know my love of memory foam?
20:11Uh-huh.
20:12And Bluetooth in general.
20:16You had a doctor's appointment this morning.
20:18What happened?
20:19Nothing happened.
20:20I still have terminal cancer, which by its very definition is gonna kill me.
20:26I can't keep hoping for a miracle that isn't gonna come.
20:29I'm tired, Ronnie.
20:32I'm tired.
20:34I'm tired of the prodding, the poking, and being stuffed full of pills that don't work.
20:42Don't do anything except make me tired and somehow keep me up all night.
20:47Ah.
20:51Dying has been all.
20:54Whatever time I have left, I want to fill it with nothing but cocktails and chaos.
21:01All right.
21:02First round's on you.
21:03You cheap bitch.
21:06Oh!
21:06Oh!
21:30Oh, shit.
21:32Shit.
21:34Sam.
21:36Judy.
21:37How you doing?
21:39I just want to make sure that you knew that there was a memorial for Jack tonight.
21:44It's 8 o'clock at Senor Cosina's.
21:47Place with the big sombrero.
21:48I'll be there.
21:49Thanks.
21:52I understand that you were with Jack when in his final moments.
21:58Yeah, that's right.
22:01Did he suffer?
22:03No.
22:05So it was peaceful?
22:07Yeah.
22:09Good.
22:10Good.
22:11Yeah.
22:13I know you two were close.
22:16Everybody loved Jack.
22:19Me too.
22:22Well, I'll see you at the memorial.
22:25I almost forgot.
22:29Is this your hammer?
22:31Um.
22:35Yeah.
22:37I used it to break Jack's window to get in.
22:41I must have left it inside after I found his body.
22:44You found Jack dead?
22:47Wish that he died peacefully.
22:49What?
22:50No, wait.
22:51He looked peaceful.
22:52He went in his sleep, you know.
22:54By the time I got there, he was gone.
22:59I see.
23:01Well, I'm sorry, but I gotta pee.
23:05My plan is not what it used to be.
23:07So I'll see you at the memorial, okay?
23:20The key is in the light.
23:40What's this?
23:41One quartz thief.
23:43Signed, sealed, delivered.
23:45This guy?
23:46Yeah.
23:46I made some phone calls after you filed that police report.
23:49I specifically asked you not to file, but that's cool.
23:53Called a buddy in Albuquerque PD, and it turns out they pulled this guy over on Thursday for driving with
23:58expired tags.
23:59And guess what they found in his trunk.
24:0280 pounds of non-precious gemstones, including quartz jewelry and chess pieces.
24:07Yeah.
24:07Guy's a total freak club, though.
24:08They've done all kinds of crazy shit.
24:10I found six boxes of those, uh, dancing dashboard hula girls.
24:16So, when can they have their stuff back?
24:19What stuff?
24:20Their stuff.
24:21Betty's chess pieces, Renee's stones.
24:22When can they have them back?
24:24They can't.
24:25It's evidence now.
24:28Maybe you can call your buddy who...
24:30Kid.
24:31Got you in.
24:32So, strike up the mariachis and call it a day.
24:35Huh?
24:37We're done with this, amigo.
24:38All right?
25:02All right?
25:13Hi, honey.
25:15Everything's fine.
25:17I've just spent the last two hours ripping up every light in the house.
25:23Looking for evidence of a monster.
25:26Why?
25:27Well, because a man with dementia gave me a clue while he was drinking yarn.
25:32So, I'm doing fine.
25:39Nothing to worry about.
25:46time to worry about.
25:49So, you can let me, maybe um...
25:56Let me just actually do something in the house.
25:58Stop.
26:03Stop.
26:05Stop.
26:07Stop.
26:09You can say you're on the back.
26:21that works
26:23this guy looks like somewhere charles manson would describe it as a little much
26:27hank says he's the one who's been stealing all the courts
26:33but hank is full of shit i called albuquerque pd
26:37they did arrest this guy but they didn't find any of your stuff in his possession
26:41or anyone else's no courts at all so why would hank lie because he's lazy
26:48if there's a real thief he has to do real work right right right so i guess that leaves it
26:55up
26:55to us you read my mind four cameras 2k remote accessible surveillance system perfect for
27:03catching thieves and all this is just for one dinner absolutely and because fuck hank
27:11fuck hank

29:07oh
29:07oh
32:48Oh, yay.
32:49Well, I heard about Jack.
32:51The EMT report said it was a heart attack, right?
32:55Yeah.
32:55Such a shame.
32:57As your transition manager, I wouldn't be doing my job if I didn't check in on you.
33:00I'm fine.
33:01I doubt that very much, Mr. Cooper.
33:04You suffered two traumas in a week.
33:07First the attack, then Jack's death.
33:09Trauma has a way of rewiring our body's natural responses.
33:14Sometimes people experience confusion, agitation, disassociation.
33:17It sounds like getting old.
33:21It sounds like aging isn't trauma, Mr. Cooper.
33:24No.
33:25Call me when you don't recognize the wrinkled face staring at you in the mirror.
33:41Oh, gee, Mr. Mushnick.
33:43What, Mr. Mushnick?
33:44I don't want you to call me Mr. Mushnick anymore.
33:46I want you to call me Dad.
33:48Isn't that beautiful?
33:49Seymour Krell, boy, come over here, my son.
33:52I want to talk on you about the future.
33:55I am building for you a giant greenhouse in which you are making impossible clouds.
34:01Which is for an I am selling.
34:04The sky is the sky.
34:07It is the same.
34:08Grave, Tony.
34:10Oh, my God.
34:11Yes, I'm sorry.
34:25Thank you all for coming.
34:27I know we all want to share our favorite memories of Jack.
34:30First off, I would like to introduce the man on top.
34:33It is a real testament to Jack's popularity that he made time in his busy schedule to come out and
34:38honor Jack with us.
34:40Ladies and gentlemen, the CEO of the Burroughs, Wayne Shaw.
34:47Thanks, folks.
34:48Thank you so much.
34:49You know, I remember when I was about 13, I used to rush home every day after school to watch
34:56Jack do the weather on Channel 4, live at 5.
35:00He was our local boy made good.
35:04And I remember Jack saying that in every life, a little rain must fall.
35:11Jack never said that.
35:13You should have been rushing home to Mass.
35:15Guys.
35:18Oh, sorry, dear.
35:19Of course.
35:20You should also know that I'm going to carry his memory with me for the rest of my days.
35:23So, thanks, Jack.
35:26Thank you, Mr. Shaw, for those lovely words.
35:38You know, life is a series of strikes and gutters.
35:41Oh, God, where's art?
35:43I need to get very high, very fast.
35:46Ooh, ye of little faith.
35:48You think I wouldn't have to carry it?
35:51I'm sure.
35:51We're all here to celebrate his life.

36:03What I want is to be quiet.
36:07And now, I would like to introduce to you a very, very special friend of Jack's.
36:15Ladies and gentlemen, welcome Tony.
