Dory, she's dead. They found
a blouse in the woods
soaked in her own blood.
No, I know that.
But I saw her
after the blouse was found.
So she's alive!
Dory, maybe it's possible
you just saw someone
that really, really
looked like her.
Yeah, like the time I thought
that roller coaster operator
was Matt Damon.
I know how you feel,
'cause I felt so stupid.
That's not what this is,
okay?
I know I saw her.
Now, you guys, you just have to
believe me on this one.
I'm telling you the truth.
Okay, but don't you think
it's kind of crazy
that the moment you become
obsessed with this girl,
you just magically
run into her?
I'm not obsessed.
And I'm not crazy.
I didn't say you were crazy,
Dory.
Well, it was implied.
Okay, yeah, why don't we
just use our inside voices?
Okay.
Dory, no one
thinks you're crazy.
I think what El is just
really trying to say is...
you saw her.
Okay, sure, sounds good.
You know what?
I mean, you don't
have to believe me.
Fine. I mean, the only people
who have to believe me
are the police.
Dory, I just said
I believe you.
I know what I saw.
I know what I saw. And you guys
weren't there, so...
You know, you're absolutely
right. I was not there.
I haven't been to Flushing
since that guy on Craigslist
paid me
to throw candy at him.
Mm. Flushing.
I thought that you said
you were in Chinatown.
No, I said I was at
a Chinese restaurant.
Yeah,
Chinese restaurant, cool.
In Flushing.
Thank you.
Thank you, Elliott.
Ooh, in Flushing.
Well, good to see everybody.
Drew,
where are you going?
Mm, where am I going, yeah.
Actually, I think
I'm gonna go to Flushing.
Yeah, I hear Flushing's awesome
this time of year,
so I'll probably be there.
Can you just wait?
No.
See you guys.
Elliott,
Julian lives in Flushing.
Oh, no.
Did they not pay?
Drew?
What, Dory?
What? [ Scoffs ]
Are you --
What?
Are you mad at me
or something?
I don't know.
You know what?
I don't know about anything
anymore.
Yesterday, you scream at me
in the middle of the street
when I'm just trying
to be nice,
and then you go hang out
with your ex-boyfriend?
Okay, yes,
I saw Julian.
Cool.
Okay, but don't make a thing
out of this. Nothing happened.
You know I would never --
Then why lie?
Why would you lie?
I didn't lie.
I just didn't say it.
Oh.
Okay, I really feel like
you're just trying
to find a reason
to be mad at me.
Can I ask you something?
Yeah.
Would you have ever yelled at
Julian the way you yelled at me?
Oh.
I am sorry
I yelled at you.
Cool. Well,
it's not about the yelling.
Okay?
[ Chuckles ]
[ Scoffs ]
I got to go to work.
So I thought it would be,
you know,
pretty valuable information
to let you know
that she's still alive.
Mm-hmm. Okay.
And when was the last time
you saw her before last night?
Six years, which I know
sounds like a long time,
but, you know, it doesn't feel
that way with social media now.
Okay. Well,
thanks for coming in.
Okay. I mean, is that it?
What happens now?
Oh, we wait
and hope for the best.
Wait and hope?
We'll do the best we can.
But she's an adult,
and if what you say is true,
I'm sure she's aware
people are looking for her
and she'll come home.
But she needs help.
And if she calls me,
I'll be happy to help her.
Okay.
Well, I guess, uh...
I'll just let you get back
to shooting black teens,
'cause that's obviously
all you do.
Whoa! What the hell
did you just say to me?!
I'm sorry.
Sorry, I realize that that was
a very big thing to say,
and I-I didn't mean it.
You obviously
just work behind a desk.
You know what?
Get the fuck out of my office.
Okay, sorry.
Sorry.
[ Water runs ]
[ Sighs, clears throat ]
[ Toilet flushes ]
Damn it.
[ Sniffles ]
Are you all right?
Yeah, yeah.
[ Scoffs ]
Police are useless.
I feel like I spent
the last hour talking to a wall.
[ Water runs ]
I mean, it's like,
how many people come in here
and tell you they actually saw
their missing friend?
They didn't even care.
Wait. I'm sorry --
Who's your missing friend?
Um, Chantal Witherbottom.
Are you kidding me?
I saw her, too.
[ Gasps ]
She was gone.
I mean, I looked
in every direction,
and I yelled for her,
and nothing.
So if you saw her at 10:30,
that must have been, like,
right after I saw her.
Yeah.
How do you,
uh, know Chantal?
Oh,
through family matters.
Oh.
Yeah, she was always there
for me.
God...
I'm so happy that
I bumped into you.
And, you know, 'cause...
I -- I was starting
to doubt myself there.
Dory...
it's called fate.
[ Chuckles ]
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
The fire had blocked all
the exits on our floor,
and the snack room
was engulfed in flames.
Now, I had two options --
wet my shirt
with my chai latte,
which I was enjoying,
and used it as a damp mask
to breath through,
or run to the elevators
and wait for it to arrive.
Well, considering that I'm
standing here before you today,
which one do you think
I chose?
[ Laughter ]
Hey, intern,
put the phone away.
Okay, let's talk
fire extinguishers.
By a show of hands,
how many of you think
there are two fire extinguishers
on this floor?
How many of you think
there are three?
I think there's three.
How many of you
think there are four?
-I'll go four.
You're all wrong.
There are seven.
Whoa.
Okay, now we'll talk about axes
for a while.
The blood spatter is typical,
Lieutenant.
[ Camera shutter clicks ]
But...
the interesting thing here
is...
well,
come see for yourself.
I'm assuming
that's not paint.
[ Chuckles ]
No, ma'am.
That red there,
that is blood.
They say a great artist
is willing to die for her work.
The question is, is she willing
to die for someone else's?
And cut.
[ Bell rings ]
That was so good.
You're so good.
Look, I'm just learning --
Good job, everyone.
Let's just do one more
from the top.
[ British accent ]
Do we have to?
I think we've got it.
There was a boom shadow,
so, yeah,
we got to do another one.
[ Scoffs ] Can't we
just fix it in post
like we do
with Elana's arm fat?
Sorry, so should I --
Um, I'm sorry...
[ Indistinct talking ]
You're such a good writer.
Oh, thanks.
Was that sort of what you were
looking for when you wrote it?
Yeah.
You make my job easy.
Really?
Okay. Thank you.
[ Chuckles ]
Hey, can I ask you kind of like
a writery question?
Uh, yeah, sure.
Okay. Hypothetical.
If there was a missing girl
and the police,
like, found her blouse
and it had blood on it,
would you, being an accomplished
crime writer,
assume that that means
that she's dead?
I mean, are we talking
about a good show?
About real life?
Then, yeah, I'd say
she's probably dead.
[ Gasps ]
That's what I've been thinking
the whole time.
[ Pop music playing softly,
bell rings ]
Hi. Excuse me, do you have these
in a sma--
Oh, my God.
Mark, this is insane.
I had no idea
you were working today.
Why wouldn't I be?
[ Laughs ]
You're hilarious.
Uh-huh.
Um, here, walk with me
while I try these one.
How was your weekend,
by the way?
Oh, so lovely.
Luke took me
to the Cloisters
because his aunt
is the horticulturist there.
So she wanted to show us
the corn poppies.
His family
are such flower nerds.
It's kind of adorable.
Hand me those.
Okay.
It's actually insane
that you say that,
because I had most incredible
orgasm last night.
Do you remember those guys
Lilo and Kotto?
They used to be in charge
of those, like, Wednesday
night things.
Do you remember that?
Mm.
Anyway, one thing
led to another,
and I ended up having
a threesome with them
at the Transportation Museum,
essentially by accident.
What do you think
of these?
I think
What are you doing
tonight?
I'm sort of deciding
between three things.
Mm-mm. I heard about a party
that I'm throwing.
Oh, really?
What is it?
It's at Ramona's,
just a few friends.
Nothing elaborate.
Well, then, I guess I am now
deciding between four things.
[ Chuckles ]
There was no way in hell that
I was gonna show up to work
with my forehead stained
with pink dye like a lunatic.
[ Both laugh ]
I mean, could you imagine me
bossing people around like that?
No.
So where do you
boss people around?
Oh. I'm a head Realtor
at T.W. Brownway.
I don't know how acquainted
you are with the, uh, company,
but it's pretty high-end.
I really love my job,
I do.
It's my calling.
Yeah?
What do you do?
Oh, I, uh...
I work as an assistant, um,
to a lady who's married.
Oh.
It's pretty meaningless.
I'm just tired of things
that don't matter.
Yes.
There is literally
a person out there right now
who is begging for help
but is too scared to ask for it.
You're right.
Chantal is in danger.
What?
Yes.
And...
We can't talk about this
here.
Let's go to my place.
Okay.
Hey, buddy. Um, they got my name
wrong at the thing,
so they gave me
an extra milkshake.
Uh, I want to be clear, I didn't
get this for you or anything,
but if you want do want it,
you can take --
No, no, no, no, it's good.
It's -- I'm good.
But, actually, can we walk
in this direction?
I need to head uptown.
Aye, aye, captain.
[ Chuckles ]
Great.
Yeah, so it's a pretty nice
neighborhood, uh, overall,
minus the construction.
It's kind of grotesque to cover
up this beautiful architecture
with scaffolding, you know?
I mean, scaffolding, although
it isn't dangerous, is so ugly.
I mean,
there's got to be --
Dude, I'm sorry,
but can we actually start
talking about Dory?
I mean, that is why
you wanted to meet up.
I just find all this small-talk
pretty unnecessary.
Yeah, yeah.
Awesome.
No, we can switch gears to that
if that's what you want.
[ Sighs ] So?
Yeah, so, um...
All right.
I guess I just wanted
to, um, say that...
I'm not very comfortable with
Dory hanging out at your place
like that.
Okay.
Is that it?
Are you sure that's all
you wanted to ask me?
Yeah.
You don't want to ask me
if I slept with Dory?
No, go ahead.
Go ahead, ask me.
[ Sighs ]
Did you?
[ Laughs ]
Hey, is that a yes or a no,
Julian?
Come on, dude,
look at yourself.
You are standing
in the middle of the street
with two milkshakes talking to
your girlfriend's ex-lover.
That seems pretty pathetic.
I don't think it's pathetic.
I actually think it's mature.
And also I'm holding this
'cause it's a mistake!
I didn't get two milkshakes
on purpose.
I didn't fuck Dory.
Cool.
Thanks for not
fucking my girlfriend.
Yeah.
You know what? Actually,
I think I'm the one
who's being the adult
about this.
Whoa, whoa!
Really?!
Okay.
Sorry about that. Oh.
I'm sorry I'm making you walk
so far in those cute shoes.
Where did you get them?
I'm always on the lookout
for the best things.
Uh, uh, I don't know.
You know, Dory, um...
we actually passed my building
about 10 blocks ago.
Oh.
I'm probably
being paranoid,
but I'd rather be paranoid
than stupid.
Paranoid about what?
Are -- are we
being followed?
Don't be so obvious,
okay?
Is it him?
Stop.
Stop, stop, stop, stop.
We don't want people to know
that we're suspicious.
Who? I-Is it the same people
who are after Chantal?
You know they
broke into my building?
Replaced half
of my electronics.
They didn't steal them,
they replaced them
as if I wouldn't
freakin' notice.
What? Why?
You know, Dory,
they own the most prestigious
buildings in Midtown.
Who?
Is it your real-estate company?
I don't know if you want to
go down that road, Dory.
I mean,
you already know too much.
Okay, that guy's still
walking this way.
Shit.
Quick! Let's go into that bodega
for a second.
[ Middle Eastern music plays ]
Just buy a couple of waters
or something.
You, out!
What?
You, out, out,
out, out, out!
Excuse me.
Not you.
You can never come in here.
How dare you
talk to me this way!
Your friend is crazy.
Get her out of here, please!
What?
No, I am not, Dory.
I've never even met this man.
This is the first time I've even
stepped foot in this bodega.
You know me.
She comes in here
every week
and make a huge mess
and yell at everyone.
What did you just say about me,
you freaking rat?!
Get out. I am calling
the police. Get out!
Hey!
I am a paying customer.
You cannot call the freakin'
police on me, you fucking rat!
I'm a rat, you're a damn pig!
You get out!
A pig?
What is your name?!
You don't need to
know my name.
What is your name?!
You don't need to
know my name.
Who is your manager?!
I am the manager!
I know my rights!
See, I'm right here.
You're not the manager!
I am --
right here, right now.
You don't even know
how to speak English!
Okay, so I finally get aboard
the yacht when it hits me.
I'm like, "Okay, this weekend
is gonna be literally just me
and, like, three very famous
pro wrestlers."
Of course, I've never
heard any of their names.
[ Both laugh ]
'Cause I'm Jewish.
I'm so sorry, you guys.
Hang tight
while I attend to sabotage.

I've never met at all.
No, we've met.

but when I was in high school,
I was diagnosed with
Stage 4 lymphoma.
And it was frightening,
and it was disturbing,
and it was beautiful.

very seriously, okay,
because the greatest lesson I
learned in that entire time...
is that you can't fight a war
alone.

We got to get these on and get
out of here as soon as possible.

I'm Dory's boyfriend.
Oh, hi.

going together?

at your breasts.

looking at my breasts.

looking at your breasts.

when she said they're after you?
Who knows?
I mean, she's psychotic.
You know, she said
she knew stuff about Chantal.
Obviously, she didn't.
She just made it all up.
But, I, like,
I wanted to believe it,
'cause I, like, wanted it
to be real or something.
I should go to the hospital,

I could be hurt, and I
probably don't know it.
You know what I mean?
Could be

No, she's just --

she's alive.
