Good morning, Tall Pines students,
This is your daily reminder that we arrive on this earth not naked,
but trailing clouds of glory from the vast universe,
Inside each of us, hidden, is a little acorn of genius,
Of purpose,
We forget about our acorns,
We're distracted by birthdays and haircuts and families,
Let's roll up our sleeves and show each other our acorns,
Food for thought, Have a good day,
Evelyn wants to see you,
So you're the favorite, huh?
Yes,
Hi, Daniel, How's your morning been?
What's that?
Fine,
Well, tomorrow we can shoot for great,
Mornings do set the tone,
Now,,, I just got off the phone with your mother,
It looks like your father's job is transferring him
to Berlin for the rest of the year,
I could hear the excitement in your mom's voice,
The opportunity for a fresh start,
Things have been so difficult for them since the, uh,,, the incident,
So, I just wanted to give you the good news,
You've got so much more time with us here,
Come on, let's go, Enjoy the day, Daniel,
Enjoy the day,
There we go,
What a little shit,
Rabbit, I'll be supervising today's summer solstice intensive,
so I think you should run today's hot seat without me,
Yes, of course,
It'd be my pleasure,
You're ready,
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
Shivered where the cold winds blow
In the pines, in the pines
In the cold, lonesome pines
Shivered where the cold winds blow
Little girl, little girl
Where'd you stay last night?
- Not even your mother knows - Do you need some help?
I don't need any fucking help,
I stayed in the pines
Where the sun never shines
Shivered where the cold wind blows
Come on!
The prettiest girl That I ever did see
- Lived out,,, - Hello, friends,
- Yo, - What's up, Stace?
See? She's completely different after this Leap ceremony thing,
Remember when your dad got Falkor neutered and he stopped humping everything?
She's like Falkor,
Less annoying but,,, less herself,
God, I can't believe you told the cop all this and he hasn't done anything,
Why is everyone so dickless?
Riley's dead,
What? How?
Shh, shh, shh, I don't know, Alex said he died trying to escape,
Bullshit, They probably killed him,
Promise me you won't tell anyone, okay?
If this spreads, they're gonna know we're talking to someone on the outside,
Promise me you won't say anything,
Okay, Okay, fine, I won't tell anyone,
Anything else I need to know?
Rory wants to come with us when we escape,
I think he could be useful,
Hell no, dude,
Not happening,
- Hi, - Hi,
Did you sleep on the couch?
Um,,,
I didn't sleep at all,
Somebody had to guard the door
in case you wanted to go stand in a pond again in your pajamas,
Something's happening to me,
Yeah, I know it is,
Uh, I need to ask you about the therapy that Evelyn does,
That you told me about,
So, I know that she only does it on some students,
Did she do it on you?
Okay, what is it exactly?
I,,, I know it's a way for you to process your trauma,
Like hypnotherapy,
And I remember feeling really excited that she chose me, but
I can't remember anything else, and I don't know why,
She has some power over you,
You're not yourself,
All of it started when you let Evelyn back into your life,
She's the root cause of all of this,
I'm gonna ask her to not come tonight to the baby shower,
The baby shower?
All right,
Do you really think we're in a good place to host a party together tonight?
Uh, are you suggesting that we cancel the baby shower?
You want me to lock myself in this house and wait for you to come home every night?
I had a moment at the farmers market where I reconnected with who I am,
I,,, I felt like I had my own purpose,
I was surrounded by community that was happy for me,
I felt supported,
and I was really looking forward to feeling that way again tonight,
Okay, I gotta get ready for work,
Your mom doesn't give a shit, Welcome to the club,
You're a slut, and Abbie's your lapdog,
Thank you for your feedback,
You're quiet, Abbie,
Anything you'd like to add?
Yeah, uh, when you sleep, you sometimes look like Steve Buscemi,
Jesus Christ, Do you masturbate together?
Or do you just wank it to Abbie, you gay slut?
Oh, actually, I'm a bi slut, Thank you so much, Alexandra,
No, you're just an addict,
Take it wherever you can,
I mean, we know you're addicted to drugs,
You know, some drugs are medicine from God's green earth,
- If it's from the ground, it's sound, - ,,,ground, it's sound,
Oh, I see,
What about the cocaine we found on you when you got to Tall Pines?
Is cocaine sound?
That's so interesting,
Abbie didn't know,
Is that true, Abbie?
You didn't know about Leila's cocaine habit?
- No, - Huh,
I wonder what else she's keeping from you,
Hi,
Thank you for meeting me,
Um, just coffee, thanks,
Maurice, your blog is the only thing that I can find online
about these missing kids from Tall Pines,
Where do you work again?
The Boston Herald,
I'm freelance now, I just moved nearby with my wife,
So, after eight years of me emailing, faxing, and calling
and writing letters to every major news outlet,
you're the guy that's gonna take their head out of their ass and listen?
Better late than never, right?
Did you know about Leila's boyfriend, Kyle?
Yeah, I knew about him,
But, Abbie, he was 26 years old,
You condone a grown man preying on your best friend?
She liked him, I don't know, He was in a band, It's her life,
You know, if a man is that much older than you, that's like rape, right?
- You didn't even try to stop it? - Of course she didn't,
She wouldn't question Leila, or Leila wouldn't like her anymore,
- Hey, I'm in the hot seat, - No, Keep going, Stacey?
I think Abbie's always known that Leila will probably end up dead,
Yeah, and then you wouldn't have to take care of her anymore, right?
And then you could shine,
Oh, So bring on the coke and pedophiles, huh?
- Shut up! I am not Abbie's responsibility, - Sit down! Hold the truth,
The truth?!
Really, you want the truth?
That kid, Riley?
Leila, don't,
He's dead,
They told us he got away, He didn't,
He died trying to get out of here,
This place killed him,
And we're next,
So who's the fucking liar now?
Is that true?
He's dead?
Riley,,,
was dead when he got here,
Just like you,
Shit!
- You're a murderer! - Code neutral!
Murderer!
- No, no, no! - Hold her back!
If you hurt her, I'll kill you!
Get off of me!
Don't touch her!
Help!
Get off of me!
- Help! - Be quiet!
Shh,
Let's get the fuck out of here! Let's go!
Let's go! Move it!
Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit!
Go!
Holy shit!
Oh my God!
Code neutral!
- We have a situation! Backup! - Rory, Tanner!
- Back in your rooms! - This is sick!
Shit!
- Go! - Do it! Daniel!
I got the key! I got the key! Come on!
- Go! - Come on! Hurry!
- Come on! - Let's go! Go!
Run for it!
Nobody gonna take my car
- I'm gonna race it to the ground,,, - Whoa! Whoa!
- Back! - Shit! Go!
Back! Back!
Get back inside! Back! Go back!
Go! Go!
Run! Run! Run!
Come on! Back inside!
Go! Come on!
Hold it! Block it!
- Get both doors! - God damn it!
You little piggy!
Let me in! Right now!
Hurry up!
- Help! - Jam the door with this!
Push hard!
- Watch your hands! - Okay,
Okay, everyone, we need to lock this place down!
Spread out and seal off the exits!
- Got it, - Come, You heard her,
- Let's go, - Let's go! Let's go!
I'm gonna keep her till the end,,,
Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!
Open the door, now!
I'm a highway star,,,
Don't booty juice him!
Shit!
Tie the zip tie,
Y'all watching this?!
Hannah was the center of our universe, you know?
Maybe too much so,
She was obsessed with her friends, you know?
And they scared us,
This one guy, Vlad, had a chain,
And they didn't read books,
And they didn't care about anything,
She started talking different,
You know? Talking back,
You know, the neighbors had a,,, a son they had sent to Tall Pines, and,,,
It was my idea,
My idea,
Uh, Maurice, the school told you that Hannah ran away,
So what happened next?
Did you ever speak to somebody called Evelyn Wade?
We can't talk here, It's too risky,
- They could be watching, - Who? The school?
Shh,
I live nearby, We'll go there,
Do you want to know what's really going on or not?
Yeah,
I forgot my wallet,
Could you, uh,,,
Yeah,
Hey! No! No!
Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey,
We got to every door, All of them, They can't get in now,
Yeah, And we can't get out, We're trapped,
But we could break out a window and sneak out,
You can't, It's reinforced, They're watching every exit now,
The walkie battery's dead,
I can't reach Alex,
They shut off the phones,
Oh, shit,
Vader incoming,
Go,
We're both reasonable people,
We can make an exchange,
You let me and Abbie go,
just us two, and we'll disappear into the woods and never bother you again,
Come on, witch!
Channel two,
We can get a winch,
We can attach it to the door, and then we can rip it off,
- Let's go, guys, Come on, Let's hustle, - No, Duck,
It's a rare and beautiful thing, this kind of uprising,
My God, that Leila,
Do you see how they follow her?
No,
Cut the power,
Keep an eye on the exits,
And do nothing,
They'll open the doors themselves,
You watch,
I'm gonna need your bag and your phone,
In case they're bugged,
Don't worry, You're safe,
We're completely off the grid here,
Is this Hannah?
Yeah,
Jesus,
How far back does this go?
Long before there was a school,
Put him in the pantry with the other staff,
Can you check the supply closets to see if they left anything open?
Yeah,
What were you thinking?
I know you're mad at me about the coke, but we don't have time--
What? No, Leila, I'm mad that you told them about Riley,
You promised me you wouldn't, You blew up our whole plan,
Hey!
I'm sorry, okay?
Leila!
Seriously,
This is gonna end bad, you know?
They're gonna know we're talking to someone,
and it won't take them long to figure out who,
Dempsey was our best chance at getting out of here, Leila,
Look, they were attacking you, Abbie,
I had to do something,
Look, this is gonna work, okay?
It's like a game of chicken,
They'll fold, and we'll negotiate our way out,
They have no cards left to play,
Oh, come on!
- What's going on? - Everybody calm down!
You got us into this, Now, how are you getting us out?
Friends!
All the stuff they took from us, I found it!
What? Seriously? In there?
Remember who you are!
Shut up, Mufasa,
Way to go, kid,
All I want now,,,
Do you see mine?
So, you contacted the families of all these kids?
Most of these missing kids are wards of the state,
But for the parents who don't give up, don't stop looking,
well, I'll show you what they do,
September 26, 1999, 7:50 p,m,, a girl walks into a homeless shelter
in Eugene, Oregon,
Line 12, Hannah Iverson,
my Hannah, signs in at 7:50 p,m,
So they found her in a homeless shelter?
That's Hannah's jacket, but that's not Hannah,
Hannah was 5'3",
Whoever this is barely clears the door,
And that's not her signature,
So they're fabricating sightings, what? To shut you up?
To keep me looking in the wrong place!
Well, so what don't they want you to see?
- Have you ever been to Tall Pines? - Yes,
Did you talk to the grads?
The ones who stay?
Something's not right there,
They're not right,
Children go in, and something else comes out,
- ,,,calm your mind, Get back to school, - I want them out of my head,
Laura, yes, I really feel I can make this all go away for you,
My love must be a kind of blind love
I can't see anyone but you
Are the stars out tonight?
Ab!
Hey, guys, This is my dad,
Uh, he sent me this for my birthday 'cause, uh, well, he was on tour in Asia,
so he couldn't call, text, write or anything,
So, um, that's him,
- Holy shit, - He's your dad?
Yeah, told ya,
Wait, so he sent you an autographed headshot for your birthday?
Yeah,
I think he might be a real asshole,
Holy shit,
Dude, what CD's in there?
Oh, dude!
Yeah!
Come on!
Come on, dance!
Come on, dudes! Come on!
Come on, Marty!
You're not gonna open it?
I don't know,
No,
Come on, Come on,
Have fun!
Hey! Hey!
Can I graduate,,,
Hey, Beth,
Sorry about that soap puke thing,
Hold this,
Can I get my punk ass off the street?
Won't die on the vine I want to knock it all down
Can I graduate,,,
Move, move, move, move!
Like, no way!
I came here when I was 12, I've never been to a real party,
Keep your pity, I like who I am,
Marty!
Whoo!
The school's a front for something much, much bigger,
Did you know that every square inch of Tall Pines is owned
by the same company, Ponderosa?
Ponderosa?
Yeah, it's a shell corporation that was formed in the 1970s, See?
You can't just focus on the details,
The devil is in the pattern,
Who is this?
- Hmm? - Who is this?
Oh yeah, that's a weird one, Laura Redman,
The parents went missing, not the kid,
- The parents? When? - I don't know, Fifteen years ago?
They felt coerced into sending their kid to Tall Pines,
And they must've loved her 'cause they wanted her back,
So one day, they drive out to get her, and poof,
Never seen again,
They tried to get her back,
Do you know this person?
No, it's a heartbreaking story,
Ah, my gut's killing me, I,,, I gotta get a milk,
You want a milk?
No, thank you,
You know, you're gonna have to be careful around these people
'cause they will destroy you,
I lost everything!
So, you still haven't said what you think they're doing to these kids,
They're programming them,
Sending them overseas to work as spies,
CIA, maybe,
Hannah would've made an excellent recruit,
She's probably one of your best,
One of my--
What kind of reporter carries a Beretta?
You're one of them!
I love fire,
I'm only pretty sure
That I can't take anymore
Before you take a swing
I wonder what are we fightin' for
When I say out loud I want to get out of this
I wonder is there anything I'm gonna miss
I wonder how it's gonna be
When you don't know me,,,
How's it gonna be
Things are gettin' horny up in here,
How's it gonna be,,,
No, don't worry, I know you don't like me like that,
Between you and me,,,
Where we used to laugh There's a shouting match
Oh, shit,
We're in the belly of the beast,
Whoa,
Okay,
- I like that, - I have something,
- Sorry I didn't tell you about Riley, - It's okay,
I've never known anyone dead before,
Or not a young person, anyway,
You know, Riley didn't like me,
And,,, I liked him,
And someone doesn't have to care about you for you to care about them,
Come here! I wanna make out with you!
To Riley,
Okay, Grab everything!
We're gonna burn it, Yeah!
Eventually, the staff are just gonna bust in,
And when they do, we're gonna be in deep shit,
Especially me,
I body-slammed Rabbit,
We're gonna throw everything in the fire!
It's all gonna burn!
Burn it!
Oblivion,,,
I think you should come with us, Rory,
If we ever escape,
Okay, be cool, dude,
Whoa,
- What do you got there? - Vicodin, Xanax, Ativan,
And the star of the show, Oxys,
I think my mom's doctor wanted to fuck her or kill her,
Either way, I benefited,
It's your birthday today?
Mm, yeah, I guess so,
I've thought about doing that every day for a year,
Are we gonna make out, or what?
Yeah, yeah,,,
Yeah!
Morning, sleepyhead,
Your turn in the hot seat, huh?
Do you remember my first time in that chair?
I'd only been here, uh, six days the first time I ended up in that seat,
But I still think about those six days
because that was before you made them all afraid of me,
You put me in this chair, and you told everyone about Luke,
How I poured a bottle of vodka down his throat,
That I dragged him through the woods, took his clothes, and tied him to a tree,
and left him there while he screamed and barfed on himself,
That's what you said, isn't it?
You said it over and over and over and over again!
But you knew it wasn't true, You knew it,
I never did it, I never hurt him,
You read the report, right?
I've never hurt anyone before,
But you wanna know what's sick?
Now I could,
- Where's Hannah? - I don't kn--
Where is she?
You held the camera,
- Shut up, Stop, - You could have stopped it, You didn't,
- Stop! - You watched,
- And you did nothing, - I was scared, okay? I didn't know!
Well, your choices made you a monster, not me!
Yeah, you're right, Then I am a monster,
It's burning!
Come on,
She thinks I'm crazy,
Marty! Marty! Hey, Marty! We need to put this out right now,
Abbie, please! I need help! I need help!
- Come on! I need help! - What?
Make it stop!
She just kept doing lines, She wouldn't stop,
Please wake up!
- Take her to the shower, - No, She needs to throw up,
Put something in her mouth so she doesn't bite off her tongue,
- Don't move her, - We need help,
Please,
Abbie! Abbie!
- Wait! Don't! Leila, no! - Check her pulse,
- Don't shake her! - Ello?
Someone help me open the door!
- What are you doing? - Now, or someone's gonna die!
Abbie!
In the office! In the office!
Code neutral, now!
Code neutral!
Don't touch her!
I stayed in the pines
Where the sun never shines
Shivered where the cold winds blow
In the pines, in the pines
In the cold, lonesome pines
Shivered where the cold winds blow
In the pines, in the pines
In the cold, lonesome pines
Shivered where the cold winds blow
She's so beautiful, isn't she?
- Um,,, - Hi, Alex, You're here,
Hi,
What's wrong?
Nothing,
- Oh my God, - Oh, I, um, punched a wall,
This morning I got mad, I'm sorry,
Can we talk about it later, maybe?
Harper, would you introduce Alex to everyone?
- Yeah, - I'll be right back,
Okay,
- Who hasn't met Alex yet? - Hi,
- What are you doing here? - I'm sorry I'm late,
There was trouble at the school,
Yeah, I think so,
Excuse me for a second,
What did you do to me?
Do to you?
You did something to me in the Leap,
You changed me,
What do you remember?
Your voice,
Oh, Laura, you were in so much pain back then,
And I treated that pain,
- You asked me to help, - I was 17,
You drugged me,
You took everything,
Oh, Laura, you are everything I hoped you would be--
Don't touch me!
Go,
- Laura, - You get the hell away from me,
Laura, hey,,,
What just happened? What did you say to her?
I told her I don't want her in our lives,
Oh my God, really?
I'm so, so proud of you,
We're gonna figure this out,
Man,,,
I miss you,
Oh no,
I'm sorry, Evelyn,
It happened,,, It happened--
It was my miscalculation,
I should have known you couldn't hold their pain,
No, Evelyn, I'm sorry,
- I can make it right, - Oh, stop pleading! It's pathetic!
Staff are injured,
There is a student in the hospital,
And they have seen how weak you really are,
And now it is all they will see every time they look at your face!
Please leave me,
They found out about Riley,
Abbie and Leila must be talking to someone on the outside,
It has to be Laura,
- Or her husband, - Just go!
I feel bad I didn't cook at all,
Laura! Laura, do a speech,
Make us all cry,
- Oh my God, - Do it!
Speech!
- Speech! Speech! - Okay,
Um,,,
Thank you all for being here,
I can't tell you how special it is, seeing all your faces and being back,
When I left Tall Pines,
I felt really alone for a long time,
My years here were really intense
and really healing,
And then suddenly, I was out in the world,
People were fake and there was no community,
And I never thought I would find that again until I met Alex,
Alex is a rare kind of person,
And we are going to need your support in this next phase of our life,
Come here,
No, don't stand up,
Come here,
Stop,
Take your shirt off,
Come here,
There are things that I might never be able to give this child,
And I've been terrified by my own limitations,
But when I look around this room, and I let myself be held by all of you,,,
I know that this baby will have everything it needs,
More than I or Alex could ever give,
Isn't that beautiful?
To know that we will never be alone,
- Cheers, - Cheers,
- I'll drink to that, - Cheers,
Cheers,
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
My girl, my girl, don't you lie to me
Tell me Where did you sleep last night?
Come on and tell me something 'bout it
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
Shiver for me now
Her husband was a hardworking man
Till a mile and a half from here
What happened to him?
His head was found in a driving wheel
And his body never never be found
My girl, my girl, don't you lie to me
Tell me Where did you sleep last night?
Come on and tell me something 'bout it
