"_" "Leave another message, Ms. Lang." "Are you expecting someone?" "No." " Miguel." " Can we come in?" "Sure." "I'm glad the two of you are here." "If it's all right with you, we'd like to look at Emma's computer." "My computer?" "Why do you need her computer?" "My dad was getting emails from Riley Marra?" "But she's..." "Dead." "We know." "And it turns out the emails were sent from your computer, Emma." " That's ridiculous." " I..." "I did not send those emails." "I didn't say that you sent them, but they were sent from your IP address." " If there's someone targeting you..." " You think someone's targeting her?" "A few points lead to that." "The articles about Piper's rampage that Emma found at the Crescent Palms Motel, the threatening phone calls, the sightings at the school, the incident at the fairgrounds last night..." "Wait." "What incident at the fairgrounds?" "I..." "I didn't want to worry you." "Yes." "So, these points lead to someone obsessing over and stalking Emma." "So, if there's anything that you haven't told us... anything at all..." "There is." "The farm." "I found a bunch of old pictures of myself at a farm out on Pikeview Road." "There was a man there." "It was dark." "I couldn't see his face." "He ran away." "We went back that night." "It was empty." "There was nothing." "We just thought that maybe it wasn't..." " A hallucination." " We'll check that out." "But if someone's harassing you, Emma, we need to know." "Your computer could really help us find this person." "Yes, sir." "Hey, thanks for letting me crash." "There's no way I could've been by myself last night." "Me either, actually." "Hey... you know you need to tell Emma everything you told me last night, right?" "No, there's no way I'm ever telling her any of that." " But with everything that's happened..." " I destroyed her life!" " Piper destroyed her life." " I brought Piper here!" "I get that you're scared, but..." "I understood." "Emma will too." "But you just have to give her a chance." "Emma's not you, Noah." "I'm starving." " Hey." " Hi." "If you're looking for Emma, she traded the early shift with me, last minute, and I am so not pissed." "Not looking for Emma." "Uh, we're looking for caffeine and baked things at the moment." " Which is on me, for last night." " All right." "Oh, hey, I actually see a spot opening up on the couch, so I'm gonna go grab that." "But, uh, get me the usual." "Mocha, coconut, extra shot, and one of those yogurt granola things." " Hey, you!" " Hey!" "Hey, Zoe!" "Hey!" "You're here!" "I mean, how are you?" "I'm great." "Normal, actually." "But I'm glad to see you." "Yeah." "So, we have that oral coming up in applied physics, and, honestly, that class has been kicking my proverbial butt as of late." "Yeah, it's tricky." "Um, so I was wondering if you would be interested in getting together for a little study session later?" "Hey, Zoe." "Audrey." "So, what do you say?" "Like, one-ish?" "Of course." "That sounds great." "Uh, you'll pick me up?" "I mean, I will pick you up?" "No, no, no." "I'll pick you up." "I like to drive." "See ya." "Bye." " She likes to drive." " First, shut up." "Second, it's just a study session." "Okay, study session or study date?" "Oh, my God." "Foster, learn to read a moment or you will be a virgin forever." "I'm more focused on staying alive." "If we stop living our lives, we might as well give up fighting now." "Who knows?" "Maybe I'm meant to die alone." "Will you take your yogurt and go?" "You have a date to get ready for." " It's a study session." " Whatever!" "Bring protection." "I..." "I know." "So, I was just questioned by the sheriff." " He wanted to have a look at my computer." " Wait." "Why?" "Apparently, someone has been sending my dad emails from Riley Marra." " What?" " And whoever was doing that sent them from my computer." "That, coupled with everything that you just told the sheriff..." "Kieran, why did you go to him without talking to me first?" "You've been keeping things from them, okay?" "It's dangerous." "That is not what we agreed to last night." "When you acted like I could trust you, when you made me feel safe..." " What was that?" "Was that just a lie?" " No, no." "Of course not." "Then, why did you go to the sheriff without talking to me first?" "You would have told me not to." "I'd rather have you angry at me and alive, than dead." "It was for your own good, Em." "For my own good?" "Then, why do I feel so betrayed?" "Hey!" "Hey, have you seen Emma?" "Wasn't she supposed to be working this morning?" "She was supposed to, but I haven't." "Are you okay?" "I, um..." "I think I might've messed up." "That's ominous." "You're dark." "Like, in a good way." "I feel like maybe you would understand." "That's even more ominous." "So, last night, I handcuffed Branson to a bed, threatened to castrate him with scissors, and then left him trapped in a hotel room." "You went full Hard Candy on Branson and left him chained to a bed?" "Yeah." "I don't know." "I was just trying to scare him." "I thought he knew something about Jake." "Is he still there?" " What the hell is that?" " It's the key to the handcuffs." " Oh, wow." " I'm serious." "Don't judge me." "No, no, no." "Trust me, I'm in no position to judge, but... we definitely need to do something about this." "Yeah." "Why do you think it took her so long to tell us about this place?" "Someone's got her scared." "This place is about as abandoned as you'd think an abandoned farm would be." "Thanks for humoring me, Dwayne." "Will you radio the station, let them know we're on our way back?" "Gotcha." "It's Miguel." "We have a bigger problem than we thought." "Thank God you're here." "We've been swamped all morning." "Hey, are you mad at something?" "Yeah, I'm mad at a lot of things, actually." " Mostly your cousin." " What'd he do now?" "He went and told the sheriff a lot of things behind my back." "Doesn't sound anything like Kieran." "I don't know." "I know that he was doing it to protect me, but I still hate that he didn't tell me." "Sounds like something I shouldn't get in the middle of." "No, trust me, nothing that you say is gonna make it any worse." "Okay, so... the thing with Kieran is, he keeps stuff buried deep, like, deeper than usual, subterranean." " Yeah, I've noticed that." " But he had a really tough childhood." "His step-dad never let up on him." "You know his mom and step-dad died in that car crash, right?" "Yeah." "Well, him and his step-dad got in some huge fight right before they drove off." "Oh, no." "Kieran still hasn't forgiven himself for that fight." "He never told me about that." "That's probably why he's so overprotective." " You've noticed?" " Yeah, totally." "And then, what happened with his real dad..." "He's lost a lot of people." "He really, really doesn't want to lose you." "With everything that's going on, he's probably just scared." " It's getting crazy, so, um... get to work." " Yeah." " Here we are." " Wow!" "This is a really cool spot." "It's my favorite place to sit and think." "You know I have a kind of love-hate relationship with this lake?" "I know." "I've heard you wax dark and poetic a lot about this body of water on The Morgue." "Right!" "Yeah, you're a fan." "That's really cool." "I was away during the whole Piper thing, so your podcast was the best way for me to find out what you guys went through." "Yeah, you weren't around last fall." "I was away at a Space X immersion program all through October." "Wait, you're not talking about the Space X Lift Bold Thinkers program, are you?" " Oh, yeah." "It was amazing." " Wow." "Okay, so, I've applied to that six times." "It's in June, not October." "So..." "How were you there in the fall?" "Okay, I lied." "But the whole Space X thing is way nicer than the truth, so can we just go with that, please?" "Wait." "I-I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable." "It's totally cool." "You don't have to..." "It's none of my business." "There was a moment last fall when I realized school was all I had." "I didn't have any friends." "I wasn't a part of anything." "It was pretty lonely." "This crushing sort of loneliness out of nowhere." "And, um..." "One night, I did something really stupid." "It's not important, but the result was, my mom bought me a therapist, and, um, I skipped school for, like, a month." "Trust me... for Lakewood, you're in the shallow end of hidden mysteries." "Thank you." "I think I have to confess one more thing." "I actually brought you here for a date." "And, uh..." "I've got swimsuits." "I'm really good at physics, just less so at asking boys out." "Zoe, am I to understand this was all some sort of elaborate ruse?" "I feel like you already knew that, Mr. Foster." "Uh, it's cool." "You should get that." "Nope!" "I'm good." "You have my undivided attention." "Hey, Foster, if anything happens to me, it probably has something to do with Seth Branson." "I'll explain later." "Audrey, you did not have to come with me, really." "He's gonna be weak and exhausted." "Don't judge me." "The point is, we can take him together." " Right?" " Just open the door." "Wha...?" "No... way." "Okay, this is bad." "I'm not gonna lie." "But Branson was bound to escape eventually." "Yeah, but where is he?" "And who is he telling about what I did?" "And what is this bizarre little display about?" "It's Branson." "He wants me to meet him later." "Either I apologize or he says he's gonna turn me in." "Turn you in?" "He is pissed." "He even put "apologize" in quotation marks." "Ew!" "Creep!" "I have to go meet him, right?" "I mean, convince him not to tell anyone about this?" "But you're not going alone." "Okay, odd." "_" "He wants to meet you at the school." "That is so messed up!" "He's a known predator teacher!" "What's wrong with him?" "It's where we used to hook-up." "I think this is his idea of nostalgia." "Or the perfect place to exact his revenge." "He's such scum, Brooke!" "Don't..." "Don't spiral on me, okay?" "Trust me, he's not worth the anger." "Let's just get this over with, okay?" "Here I am... alone... waiting for a girl... at a lake." "And that's never gone bad for anyone in a movie ever." "Hey, Zoe!" "Come out here!" "Come join me!" " Almost there!" " Okay." "Sorry." "Just took an extra minute." "Yeah, yeah." "It's totally cool." "Uh, that's okay." "I was totally fine out here by myself." "It's very chill." " Thank you for the swimsuit." " You're welcome." "So, how is your love-hate relationship with this body of water now?" "I feel like a pretty big fan of the bodies near me right now." "Hold up!" "Did someone get some game while I was changing?" " Emma?" " Ms. Lang." "Hey." "I'm so sorry that I haven't returned your phone call." "I've just been..." "Avoiding me." "I know." "No." "It's just not a good time right now." "But I owe you an apology, Emma." "During the lockdown, I was worried things might trigger your PTSD." "I only locked you in that classroom for your own protection, I swear." "But it caused a panic attack and I'm so sorry." "I really hope you can forgive me." "Yeah, I accept your apology, but..." "But what?" "A lot of people are trying to help me right now, and it seems to be turning out for the worst." "We're just worried about you, Emma." "I cannot talk about this right now, okay?" "I really need you to give me some space, or I don't know what I'm gonna do." " Okay, Ms. Lang?" " I understand." "But we're..." "I just want you to make sure you get the help you need." "If it's not from me, then I can find someone else." "I'll be at the school later, grading papers, if you want to call or stop by." "Great." " What was that?" " That was Ms. Lang socially failing." "I just cannot even deal with her right now." "I feel like..." "Like the world's closing in on you?" " Yeah." " You gotta get away from it all." "I'm telling you, you're in dire need of some fun." "Which I'm actually pretty good at, believe it or not." "All you have to do is agree." " I will think about it." " Come on." "Just, like, dinner tonight." "My treat." "Come on." "I know a really cool place." "Stop it." "Come on." "I will pick you up, 5:30?" "For the record, you're a really bad salesman." "I cannot talk about this right now, okay?" "I really need you to give me some space, or I don't know what I'm gonna do." "We're just worried about you, Emma." "I cannot talk about this right now, okay?"

"Hey, so, um, I was thinking..." "Uh-oh." "My parents are actually gonna be away tonight." "Think maybe you want to come over later?" "Hang out?" "Sounds like a plan." "Cool." "Smooth or ribbed?" "Look at you turn bright red!" "Oh, no, I'm not buying condoms." "I'm, uh..." "I'm-I'm looking for, uh..." "Where-Where's the shampoo?" "It's better to be safe than sorry, baby." "And, between us, there's no difference." "What do you think?" "Uh, whatever's, um, best." "Let's at least narrow down the size." "Noah's on a date... ish." "Whatever it is, it seems to be going well 'cause he's not answering." "Good for him." "It's almost time." "What am I gonna say to Branson?" "Are you seriously putting on lipstick for that jerk?" "This is war paint." "Look, if Branson starts getting weird, just deny that the hotel thing ever happened, okay?" "It's Branson we're talking about." "No one's gonna believe him."

"Good enough." "Thank you." "I'm here!" "Are you here?" "Are you here, you dick?" " Where's the ambulance?" " What?" "Whoa!" "No, I thought you were the paramedics." "One of the teachers fell." "It's awful." " Ms. Lang!" " She's still breathing." " Oh, my God!" " Brooke, you were supposed to stay outside." " Did somebody call an ambulance?" " Yeah, yeah, he did." " Audrey, call someone!"

"Let the thrill help you forget." "It's a unit they used as a model." "I guess they just abandoned it when construction stopped." "Wait." "So, they just left everything here?" "That is so weird." "Um..." "I'm gonna tell you something now, okay?" "But you have to promise not to make fun of me." " I am making no promises." " Okay." "Um..." "So, you know how my mom is difficult." "And by "difficult," I mean, a total mess." "I'm the only adult between the two of us." "Sometimes, when I'm, like, feeling sick of it all, I..."

"Dude, I have no idea what happened, but that psycho texted me." "He knew I was with Brooke." "He could have been posing as Branson, luring us there." "Yeah, he obviously had something planned." "Yeah, and he wanted me to go in there alone." "And you did." "That was stupid!" "Do you have any idea what could've happened?" "What were you thinking?" "He was gonna send that image of me with Jake's body to Brooke, and I couldn't let that happen!" "But I think he was trying to do the same thing again, like with Jake's body at the storage unit." "He wanted me there for whatever was gonna happen with Lang, and I think he wanted me to look like I was a part of it." "Oh, God, or something even worse." "So, why didn't he go through with it?" " The janitor." " He was interrupted by the janitor." "Before you got there, before he could finish whatever he was doing." "If that hadn't happened, who knows what I would have been walking into?" "This isn't good, Maggie." "Emma and I came back here." "We didn't find anything." "Well, I did." "Oh, my God." "It's Emma." "You found this here?" "Did you call Quinn?" "I'd rather leave him out of this for the time being." "Look, I know what you're thinking." "You're wrong." "Look at where we're standing, Maggie." "Piper's dead." "Someone else is obsessed with your daughter." " Who else could it be?" " That's not what's happening here!" " We handled that situation." " We thought we did... but, one way or another, this is about Emma." "We both know it could be our own fault." "So, how did you find this place?" "Desperation." "Lakewood is not exactly Atlanta." "I needed something to do." "Mm, do you hate living here?" "No, it's just... it's hard to find people to hang with when you don't know anyone." "Well, I mean, you know Kieran." "Kieran's been weird." "Wait, what do you mean, "weird"?" "Like..." "I don't know." "When I first moved here, the way he's acting, I..." "I thought it was a joke." "I kept waiting for him to, like, bust out and say, "Got you, dude," or whatever." "How was he different when he was in Atlanta?" "I mean, "Lakewood Kieran" is a completely different person." "He moved here and he got to start over." "He's cast you as the perfect girlfriend." "Okay, well, um, yeah." "That explains why we're having so many problems, then." "Because I am definitely not perfect." "Look, there you go again." "You're supposed to be forgetting all about that." "Look around." "This..." "This place can be anywhere." "You can be anyone." "Right." "Well, whoever that anyone is, still will not be perfect." "Good." "Perfect is boring." "I..." "I can't... do that." " But do you want to?" " I'm with Kieran." " No, I know, but..." " And I know... we're fighting right now and we're having problems, but I love him and I have to..." " Yeah, you need to figure it out." " Yeah." "That's the smoke detector." "Okay, come on." " Whoa!" " Oh, my God!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Uh, go, go, go." " Watch out!" " Oh!" "Oh!" "This way." "Come on!" "Uh, we need to get out of here, okay?" " We have to call the fire department!" " No, no!" "Look, we just broke in." " They're gonna blame us for this." " What if it was our fault?" "I have a history with the police, okay?" "And I was just trying to do something fun for you, and this is gonna go really bad for me." " We cannot just leave." " We can just leave, okay?" "We can just walk away."
