00:17Pupils look good.
00:19No sign of concussion or a head trauma.
00:22How you holding up?
00:23Well, you tell me.
00:25Blood pressure's a little high,
00:26but it sticks back to giving the night you just had.
00:29I'm sorry about your friend.
00:32It's not uncommon for older apnea patients
00:34to aspirate going to heart failure.
00:36There was no heart attack.
00:38Okay, what was it?
00:41I don't know.
00:42It was...
00:45a thing.
00:47A thing?
00:51Like an animal or something.
00:53What kind of animal?
00:57I don't know.
00:59We didn't see any animal.
01:01Well, I scared it off.
01:03I get it.
01:04It was dark. Shadows do weird things.
01:08You got confused.
01:09I'm not confused.
01:12I know what I saw.
01:13An animal.
01:17Something.
01:20You know what, Mr. Cooper, why don't you take a ride with us?
01:23Get a full checkup at the hospital.
01:24I'm gonna make sure you didn't knock your head or something.
01:26I thought you said I was okay.
01:29Hey, better safe.
01:32Nothing wrong with my head.
01:34Okay.
01:35When you start to feel lightheaded or confused or anything at all,
01:38just call out the seraphim.
01:40Yeah, I don't need anyone's help.
01:43Fair enough.
02:08Another beautiful day in the burrows.
02:10,
02:10wasi two,
02:10?
02:12?
02:12?
05:32Are you okay?
05:35Yeah.
05:36Yeah, I'm fine.
05:38Yeah, this guy, Edward, I think he's got some kind of dementia.
05:42He got confused.
05:43He broke in.
05:45Said some weird stuff.
05:47Why didn't you call me?
05:48Why didn't you call me?
05:49Why didn't you call me?
05:49Oh, I knew you'd worry.
05:50Oh, I want to worry.
05:52Yeah, well, that's dumb.
05:54Thanks, Dad.
05:57What is that tapping sound?
06:03There's an owl in the walls.
06:04There's an owl in the walls.
06:05What are you talking about?
06:07An owl?
06:08Claire, I can't talk right now.
06:10Okay, what's going on?
06:11I'm confused.
06:11I am not confused.
06:14But that's not what I said.
06:15What?
06:16I gotta go.
06:17I got something to do.
06:17Dad, I...
06:22Hey, look who's up.
06:25I made you breakfast.
06:27Grab a seat.
06:30I picked some raspberries on my hike yesterday.
06:34I figured I'd make you some special pancakes, like the old days.
06:42John Gunther, he said,
06:45All happiness depends on a leisurely breakfast.
06:49I'm allergic to raspberries.
06:52Since when?
06:59Right, right.
07:02Well, there's some bacon there.
07:06Some juice.
07:07Help yourself.
07:10I gotta meet the guys for golf.
07:12You know how wonk gets if I'm late for tea off.
07:17Coffee's on.
07:18Don't worry about the dishes.
07:19I'll get them later.
07:21Sorry about the mess.
07:27Okay, Dad.
07:28See you tonight.
07:32Bye.
08:03Hey, Franklin.
08:05Hitting the trails, Art?
08:06Perfect day for a hike.
08:08Hey, you stay hydrated out there.
08:10Desert heat sneaks up on you.
08:12Yeah, well...
08:13I'm an Eagle Scout.
08:16Always prepared.
08:22I can feel the darkness in your shadow.
08:29Such a shame about Jack.
08:31He was such a nice boy.
08:34I liked him.
08:36I really liked him for about two months last summer.
08:41Yes, well, they're having a memorial at Senor Casina's tonight.
08:46Oh, crap.
08:48Who holds a memorial in a Mexican restaurant?
08:52Jack, obviously.
08:53Yeah, it could be fun.
08:55I went to Rebecca's memorial at the chess club last month.
08:59That was bleak.
09:00Would they know how to replace half of the chess set?
09:05What?
09:06Uh, my granddaughter bought me the most beautiful chess set last Christmas,
09:11and the other night, all of the white pieces just vanished.
09:15Poof.
09:16Gone.
09:16What were they made out of?
09:18Uh, that white shit.
09:20Of course.
09:20I think.
09:41Uh, it's a waste of time.
09:44It is not a waste of time.
09:47These studies are from leading minds in alternative cancer research
09:50throughout Europe and Asia.
09:52Okay, we both know what alternative means, Wally.
09:54It means non-Western.
09:56It doesn't mean invalid.
09:58These treatments have all been debunked.
10:00Just like the apricot seeds and the hypnosis you insisted we try.
10:04Miracle cures aren't real.
10:07Well, miracles are all I got.
10:13What's your oncologist in Santa Fe say?
10:15I haven't talked to him yet.
10:16Why not?
10:17He stopped returning my calls.
10:20Wally.
10:21You're a doctor.
10:23Yeah.
10:23Probably a better doctor than I'll ever be.
10:25Yeah.
10:31A patient comes to me.
10:33He's in his sixties.
10:35Early sixties.
10:35Has stage four prostate cancer.
10:37He's tried surgery, radiation, chemo, even proton beam therapy.
10:41Nothing's worked.
10:43And now the cancer's spread to his liver.
10:49What would you tell him?
10:51I'd tell him to try the apricot seeds.
11:03All right, come on, everybody.
11:04With me.
11:05Let's go.
11:06All right, here we go.
11:08Come on.
11:10Keep up, Paul.
11:12Can I help you?
11:13Betty, come here.
11:15Tell this man what you told me in Pilates class.
11:18My granddaughter bought me a chess set, which she should not have done because her great
11:22husband just got laid off from his job, and I know it cost her a pretty penny.
11:27But she is the sweetest girl.
11:29Betty, Betty.
11:30Tell him about your missing chess pieces.
11:33My chess pieces are missing.
11:35Her quartz chess pieces.
11:37Right.
11:37Just like the quartz jewelry that's missing from my classroom.
11:40Right.
11:40Just like the quartz coasters that vanished from Paul's kitchen.
11:44We all have the same story.
11:46I mean, there is a thief out there who is stealing our worthless shit.
11:51So what are you gonna do about it?
11:52I guess I, uh, better file a report.
11:56Right.
11:58There is one problem, though.
12:00Oh, here we go.
12:02Well, if I file this report, Hank is probably going to fire me.
12:06Which means I could starve to death, unless you promise to take me to dinner.
12:12I'll take you.
12:13I'm watching you, Betty.
12:17So what do you say?
12:19Fine.
12:20If you get fired.
12:22With candles.
12:23And a nice glass of wine.
12:24No Applebee's.
12:25No Applebee's.
12:28Paz.
12:29Renee.
12:30Oh, yeah, I remember, too.
12:41Here we go.
12:42Edward.
12:43Right here.
12:44Okay?
12:45Want me to stick around?
12:47No.
12:47We're fine.
12:48Okie dokie.
12:49I'll be right over there if you need anything.
12:52And, uh, do me a favor.
12:54Try not to rile him up.
12:55He's having a good day.
12:57Understood.
13:03You remember me, Edward?
13:05I think so.
13:08You remember my house?
13:11Your house?
13:14You remember what you told me about the owl in the walls?
13:17Here's your coffee.
13:21Two vanilla lattes.
13:23One with oat milk and one regular.
13:26No, I didn't...
13:27I didn't...
13:29Enjoy.
13:32Vanilla's my favorite.
13:36Here's your coffee.
13:40I need you to focus, Edward.
13:43I need you to tell me about the owl.
13:46You ready to go, champ?
13:48Go?
13:49Where are we going?
13:50To the park, Joey.
13:51No.
13:52I'm not Joey.
13:53I'm Sam.
13:53It's a good day to fly a kite.
13:55Focus, Edward.
13:56I need you to tell me about the owl in the walls.
13:59Where's your kite?
14:00How you gonna fly a kite without a kite?
14:02There's no kite.
14:05There's no park.
14:06I'm not Joey.
14:07I'm Sam.
14:08Sam.
14:09Damn it.
14:11I need you to tell me about the owl in the wall.
14:15Vanilla's my favorite.
14:39Look, Dad.
14:40I found my kite.
14:43That's a beaut, Joey.
14:45Why don't you take it?
14:46You can hold it so I don't lose it again.
14:49I'll put it with the others
14:50till we can take it for a proper spin.
14:53Kites are made to be flown.
14:55Sure thing, Dad.
14:56Yeah.
15:00You're not Joey, are you?
15:04I'm afraid not.
15:06You're the one looking for the owl.
15:09That's right.
15:17I got one.
15:19You did?
15:21I locked it up.
15:23Where?
15:24You need the key.
15:26Key?
15:27What key?
15:27The key is in the light.
15:29The owl is in the walls.
15:31The key is in the light.
15:34The owl is in the walls.
15:36The key is in the light.
15:37The owl is in the walls.
15:38Okay, Edward.
15:39It's time to go back to your room.
15:40The owl is in the walls.
15:41You have to rile him up, didn't you?
15:42The owl is in the walls.
15:43The key is in the light.
15:44Okay.
15:44The owl is in the walls.
15:46The key is in the light.
15:47The owl is in the walls.
15:48We're going back to your room, Edward.
15:50The key is in the light.
15:51The owl is in the walls.
15:52Okay.
15:53The key is in the light.
15:54Yes, yes.
15:55But the owl is in the walls.
15:57The key is in the light.
15:58The owl is in the walls.
15:59The key is in the light.
16:01The owl is in the walls.
16:02The key is in the light.
16:04The owl is in the walls.
16:05The key is in the light.
16:06The key is in the light.
16:19Oh, my God.
16:39Hey, Bruxy, you been keeping an eye on the mushrooms?
16:45All right, come on.
16:47There you go.
16:48You heard it.
16:49That's it.
16:56Jack died last night.
17:00That's right.
17:01You guys been fucking my wife.
17:04I guess I should be glad that he's dead.
17:07But I'm not.
17:09I looked the other way, Brooks.
17:11I looked the other way for a long time.
17:15Because if I didn't, I was afraid she might leave.
17:20But when I saw her face this morning...
17:26She wasn't sad.
17:35I knew she was sleeping with him.
17:39And now I'm afraid that maybe she loved him, too.
17:42Hmm.
17:44You know what a psychopomp is, Brooks?
17:46Hmm?
17:48You ever heard that before?
17:51Some cultures believe that's what you crows are, psychopomps.
17:57Spectral beings who escort the souls of the dead to their eternal rest.
18:07Maybe you are.
18:09Maybe you are.
18:09I don't know.
18:12But if you happen to see Jack out there, hmm?
18:21Take him someplace nice.
18:32I don't know why there's no sun up in the sky.
18:50I don't know why there's no sun up in the sky.
18:52I think it's hot.
18:52Maybe you are.
18:56You're ready to go back.
18:59You're ready to go back.
19:00I mean something nice.
19:01You're ready to go back.
19:11and misery everywhere. Stormy weather, stormy weather, but I just can't get my poor self
19:24together. Oh, I'm weary all of the time, yeah.
20:04Oh, I'm weary all of the time.
20:07I'm weary all of the time.
20:10Oh, I'm weary all of the time.
20:26Oh, I'm weary all of the time.
20:31I'm weary all of the time.
20:32Oh, I'm weary all of the time.
20:39Oh.
20:47Is this memory foam?
20:49I think so.
20:51Your one comes with Bluetooth speakers.
20:53You know what that means?
20:54What?
20:55I could be your afterlife DJ.
20:57Oh, please.
20:59No Phoebe Bridgers.
21:00That mumbling is so depressing.
21:03I'm sorry.
21:03I don't take requests.
21:05So, what do you think, Ronnie?
21:08Um, I think you're going to lie in a few more coffins
21:12and complain that that one's too Bela Lugosi
21:14and, oh, that one's mahogany.
21:16And mahogany reminds me of my stepdad's study
21:19and we're going to waste half of our afternoon
21:21until I drag you out of there
21:24and across the street for a Manhattan.
21:28Just like the last five times.
21:30Hmm.
21:31I'll take it.
21:34I'll get the paperwork.
21:36What are we doing?
21:37Oh, you know my love of memory foam?
21:42Uh-huh.
21:43And Bluetooth in general.
21:47You had a doctor's appointment this morning.
21:49What happened?
21:50Nothing happened.
21:51I still have terminal cancer,
21:53which by its very definition is going to kill me.
21:57I can't keep hoping for a miracle that isn't going to come.
22:01I'm tired, Ronnie.
22:04I'm tired.
22:06I'm tired of the prodding
22:09and the poking
22:11and being stuffed full of pills that don't work.
22:14Don't do anything except make me tired
22:17and somehow keep me up all night.
22:23Dying has been all.
22:27Whatever time I have left,
22:29I want to fill it with nothing but cocktails
22:32and chaos.
22:34All right.
22:36First round's on you.
22:37You cheap bitch.
22:38Oh!
22:56Oh, shit.
23:06Shit.
23:08Sam.
23:11Judy.
23:13How you doing?
23:14I-I just wanted to make sure that you knew that there was a memorial for Jack tonight.
23:19It's 8 o'clock at Senor Cosina's place with the big sombrero.
23:24I'll be there. Thanks.
23:27I understand that you were with Jack when... in his final moments?
23:34Yeah, that's-that's right.
23:37Did he suffer?
23:39No.
23:41So it was peaceful?
23:44Yeah.
23:46Good.
23:48Yeah, I-I know you two were close.
23:53Everybody loved Jack.
23:56Me too.
23:59Well, I'll-I'll-I'll see you at the memorial.
24:02I-I almost forgot.
24:06Is this your hammer?
24:11Um...
24:13Yeah.
24:14Yeah, I used it to break Jack's window to get in.
24:19I must have left it inside after I found his body.
24:22You found Jack dead?
24:25Who said he died peacefully?
24:27What?
24:28No, well, he-he looked peaceful.
24:31He went in his sleep, you know.
24:33By the time I got there, he was gone.
24:38I see.
24:40Well, I-I'm sorry, but I-I gotta pee.
24:44My bladder's not what it used to be.
24:46So I-I'll see you at the memorial, okay?
25:00The key's in the light.
25:21What's this?
25:22One quartz thief.
25:24Signed, sealed, delivered.
25:26This guy?
25:27Yeah.
25:27I made some phone calls after you filed that police report.
25:31I specifically asked you not to file, but that's cool.
25:35I called a buddy in Albuquerque PD, and it turns out they pulled this guy over on Thursday for driving
25:40with expired tags.
25:41And guess what they found in his trunk?
25:4480 pounds of non-precious gemstones, including quartz jewelry and chess pieces.
25:49Yeah.
25:49Guy was a total freak klepto.
25:51All kinds of crazy shit.
25:53Found six boxes of those, uh, dancing dashboard hula girls.
25:59So, when can they have their stuff back?
26:02What stuff?
26:03Their stuff.
26:04Betty's chess pieces, Renee's stones.
26:05When can they have them back?
26:07They can't.
26:08It's evidence now.
26:11Well, maybe you can call your buddy who...
26:13Kid.
26:14He got your win.
26:16So, strike up the mariachis and call it a day.
26:21We're done with this, amigo.
26:22Alright?
26:59Alright, honey.
27:01Everything's fine.
27:03I've just spent the last two hours ripping out every light in the house.
27:10Looking for evidence of a monster.
27:12Why?
27:13Well, because a man with dementia gave me a clue while he was drinking yarn.
27:18So, I'm doing fine.
27:25Nothing to worry about.
27:34Well, here's what's another one.
27:53If you're ready, I'm just Thinking.
28:12This guy looks like someone Charles Manson would describe as a little much.
28:17Hank says he's the one who's been stealing all the quarts.
28:22But?
28:23But Hank is full of shit.
28:25I called Albuquerque PD.
28:27They did arrest this guy, but they didn't find any of your stuff in his possession.
28:31Or anyone else's. No quarts at all.
28:34So why would Hank lie?
28:36Because he's lazy.
28:38If there's a real thief, he has to do real work.
28:42Right, right, right.
28:43So, I guess that leaves it up to us.
28:46You read my mind.
28:48Four cameras.
28:502K.
28:51Remote accessible surveillance system.
28:53Perfect for catching thieves.
28:56And all this is just for one dinner?
28:58Absolutely.
29:00And because fuck Hank.
29:02Fuck Hank.
29:06Here's some useless trivia for you.
29:09Lauren Hill samples Streisand's the way we were in this song.
29:13Well, technically it's Gladys Knight's cover by way of Wu-Tang Clan.
29:17It's gonna be all so simple.
29:18But wait, uh, you like Barbra Streisand?
29:21She's a national treasure.
29:23Do you know the song Barbra Streisand by Duck Sauce?
29:26I know Duck Sauce.
29:27I opened for Duck Sauce.
29:28Wait, you're in a band?
29:30I'm a drummer.
29:32I've been to six bands.
29:33Two are pretty good.
29:35You play?
29:35I was a manager.
29:37You're a suit.
29:38Oh, never trust a suit.
29:41I'm retired, man.
29:42Once a suit, always a suit.
29:44Could be worse.
29:46I could be a drummer.
29:47That hurts.
29:48Do you wanna hear a joke?
29:50No.
29:51What do you call a guy who hangs around with a bunch of musicians?
29:54Don't say it.
29:55A drummer.
29:57That's cold.
29:58Well, I am a suit.
30:11What you got there, buddy?
30:13Hmm?
30:15Brooksy?
30:16Oh.
30:22What's this?
30:23What you got here?
30:24Bottlecap.
30:26Huh.
30:27Who's this?
30:28Frosty Root Beer.
30:31I don't think I have that one yet.
30:34How was that?
30:36Oh!
30:39Oh!
30:41Oh!
30:42Oh!
30:43Brooks!
30:43Brooks!
30:45Don't!
30:47Brooks!
30:49Stop!
30:50Brooks!
30:50Brooksie, what's wrong?
30:52Oh!
30:53Oh!
30:54Oh!
30:58Oh!
31:16Oh!
31:17Oh, yeah.
31:58Oh, oh, oh, oh.
32:27I don't know.
32:47I don't know.
33:43I don't know.
34:15I don't know.
34:17Fuck.
34:19Fuck.
34:21Come on.
34:22Come on.
34:32Good job, Edward.
34:34You got one.
34:48Hello, can I help you?
34:50Oh, Mr. Cooper, hello.
34:53I'm not sure if you remember me.
34:55I remember you.
34:56Oh, yay.
34:58Well, I heard about Jack.
35:00The EMT report said it was a heart attack, right?
35:04Yeah.
35:04Yeah?
35:05Such a shame.
35:06As your transition manager, I wouldn't be doing my job if I didn't check in on you.
35:09I'm fine.
35:10I doubt that very much, Mr. Cooper.
35:13You suffered two traumas in a week.
35:16First the attack, then Jack's death.
35:19Trauma has a way of rewiring our body's natural responses.
35:24Sometimes people experience confusion, agitation, disassociation.
35:28That sounds like getting old.
35:32Aging isn't trauma, Mr. Cooper.
35:35No?
35:36Call me when you don't recognize the wrinkled face staring at you in the mirror.
35:52Oh, gee, Mr. Mushnik.
35:54What, Mr. Mushnik?
35:55I don't want you should call me Mr. Mushnik anymore.
35:57I want you should call me Dad.
35:59Isn't that beautiful?
36:01Seymour Krelboyne?
36:02Come over here, my son.
36:04I want to talk on you about the future.
36:07I am building for you a giant greenhouse in which you are making impossible flowers.
36:13Which, in turn, I am selling it.
36:16It's a big sign in the sky.
36:19It is saying,
36:21Kravetsushnik.
36:23Isn't that exciting?
36:38Thank you all for coming.
36:40I know we all want to share our favorite memories of Jack.
36:43Well, first off, I would like to introduce the man on top.
36:47It is a real testament to Jack's popularity that he made time in his busy schedule to come out and
36:52honor Jack with us.
36:54Ladies and gentlemen, the CEO of the boroughs, Blaine Shaw.
37:01Thanks, folks.
37:03Thank you so much.
37:04You know, I remember when I was about 13, I used to rush home every day after school to watch
37:11Jack do the weather on Channel 4, live at 5.
37:14I mean, he was, he was our local boy made good.
37:19And I remember Jack saying that, in every life, a little rain must fall.
37:27Jack never said that.
37:28He should have been rushing home to mass.
37:30Jack.
37:31Guys.
37:34Oh, sorry, dear.
37:35Of course.
37:36I also know that I'm going to carry his memory with me for the rest of my days.
37:40So, thanks, Jack.
37:46Appreciate it.
37:50Wow.
37:51Thank you, Mr. Shaw, for those lovely words.
37:54You know, life is a series of strikes and gutters.
37:59Oh, God.
38:00Where's art?
38:01I need to get very high, very fast.
38:03Ooh, ye of little faith.
38:06You think I wouldn't take the period?
38:08That's right.
38:09We're all here to celebrate his life.
38:12Whose watermelon cushions is your favorite?
38:16It's good, right?
38:16Hey, guys.
38:18Seriously.
38:19Oh, sorry, do you want some?
38:20No.
38:21What I want is to be quiet.
38:24Oh, sorry.
38:25I'll be quiet.
38:26And now I would like to introduce to you a very, very special friend of Jack's.
38:32Thanks.
38:34Ladies and gentlemen, welcome Tony.
38:51Come on and hold me.
38:55Just like you told me.
38:59And show me what I want.
39:05Wally, I need to speak with you.
39:06He's hell, he's hell.
39:07I can't talk now.
39:08No, no, no.
39:09You're a doctor, right?
39:10No, seriously.
39:11After the memorial.
39:11That's something I need you to see.
39:13Jesus!
39:15Shut up!
39:23Steve?
39:31What was that?
39:33No clue.
39:34no clue.
40:03Got a light?
40:05I don't smoke.
40:07Me either.
40:09At least according to my husband.
40:11He's a worrywart.
40:14Your secret's safe with me.
40:25Do you two get to a lot of these?
40:31What price do you pay for living in the boroughs?
40:35Sometimes I feel like it's...
40:39It's too much.
40:51Because sometimes it is.
40:58Sometimes you feel like you're going to explode.
41:07So I put it out there in the desert.
41:14The desert can hold it all.
41:24Well, I should get back inside.
41:27Have a good night.
41:29You too, honey.
41:48I don't know.
41:59What about here, Judy?
42:03You would not believe what I saw.
42:06Where were you?
42:08What?
42:09Jack's memorial.
42:11You don't understand.
42:13I saw something today I cannot explain.
42:16There were thousands, thousands of crows.
42:20They just filled the sky.
42:21And then suddenly, BAM!
42:26I did it!
42:28I glimpsed the divine.
42:31How high are you?
42:32It was real.
42:34Okay, I... I just... I can't do it tonight.
42:39Judy, I'm trying to tell you something.
43:04It's okay.
43:06Let's go!
43:06It's okay.
43:08You guys are ready.
43:09I've gone.
43:30What happened to your house?
43:31I had a problem with the lights.
43:33It looks a lot worse than it is.
43:35Well, it looks like shit.
43:38Uh, remember, if you kill me, it's considered a hate crime.
43:41It's a phenomenon.
43:41I don't know what else to call it.
43:44I stumbled across it a couple of hours ago.
43:45I've been running tests ever since, but...
43:49I'm an engineer.
43:50You're a doctor.
43:52Maybe you can tell me what the hell I'm looking at.
43:55What is that?
43:58It's the blood of the creature that killed Jack.
44:02The what?
44:03I know how it sounds.
44:05Like you've lost your mind.
44:08That's what I'm afraid of.
44:11Show me.
44:15Goggles.
44:15Goggles?
44:16Yeah.
44:17And turn out the light.
44:18Turn out the light.
44:21Now we take cover.
44:23Why are we taking cover?
44:24Sam, why are we taking cover?
44:27Shhh.
44:27When's the last time you slept?
44:29Oh, just watch.
44:30Check out any one of our stuff from classes.
44:33There's always something to sink in the borough.
44:36Something to do in the borough.
44:37Burr-burr-burr-burr-burr.
44:40Burr-burr-burr-burrrr.
44:42Hmm.
44:42Hmm.
44:43Shame.
44:44Shame.
44:45Shame.
44:45Shame.
44:45Shame.
44:49Shame.
44:50y'all dime.
44:51Shame.
44:53broad lie.
45:14Get down.
45:30You see it, right?
45:32Yes.
45:33I see it.
45:44What is it?
45:52A miracle.
45:54A miracle.
46:00A miracle.
46:11A miracle.
46:23A miracle.
