School Spirits 1x5

1. Previously on "School Spirits..."

2. I'm never gonna guess his passcode.

3. OK, pens down.

4. So, Claire, what would being homecoming queen mean to you?

5. The only homecoming that matters this year is Maddie's.

6. That's funny, I haven't heard you say two words to her

7. since I've been at this school.

8. Claire, she says she doesn't care about homecoming,

9. and then she cries on camera about Maddie.

10. - Want to take a selfie? - Where'd you get that phone?

11. Was it unlocked? - I know everyone's passcodes.

12. Simon, check his call log.

13. You've reached Claire Zahler.

14. Do me a favor and just text me, OK?

15. Come on.

16. Oh, where are you?

17. Fuck.

18. Ugh!

19. 38.

20. 39. - Can I get off now?

21. No. One more. 40.

22. - OK, I'm getting off. - OK. Yeah, sure.

23. All right, who's next?

24. Charley, you want to ride the pony?

25. Oh, OK.

26. So would that be a microaggression,

27. or is it just full-on macro?

28. I don't know what those things mean.

29. It's a countdown, baby.

30. We got ten hours until the homecoming game.

31. We got to pump it up. Let's go.

32. Oh, we are pumped, Wally.

33. This is what pumped looks like for some of us.

34. Any more pumped and I'll throw up in my hat.

35. Or not.

36. More pumping.

37. All right.

38. Now, is everyone signed up for a prep committee?

39. We still need more help with decorations and refreshments.

40. Where's Maddie?

41. Oh, maybe she walked off during a pony ride.

42. Nobody should be wandering off, Charley.

43. Yeah, he's right.

44. This banner is not gonna paint itself, OK?

45. - I'll go find her. - Oh, no.

46. I'll go. She likes me more.

47. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. OK, if both of you guys go,

48. who's blowing up the balloons?

49. Who is making my crown of sparklers?

50. I added that to give this year a little bit more sizzle.

51. I mean, it's gonna be— OK, sorry.

52. Fine, I will stay

53. and help you blow up your balloons.

54. No one likes a sad pony.

55. Mr. Martin, should I—

56. No. No, no. That's OK.

57. There's lots to do, and we need all hands on deck.

58. Right, Rhonda?

59. Hey.

60. Vote for me. I see the real you.

61. Is she selling mulch?

62. Maybe it's a salad bar.

63. What's with all the rocks?

64. Stop being petty.

65. I think she's really pretty.

66. What?

67. You got to wonder, right?

68. How far Claire's cult will go to impress her.

69. What? You mean like murder someone?

70. Don't look shocked. They live for her approval.

71. Yeah, but you really think they'd kill for it?

72. I mean, they can barely get dressed

73. without consulting Claire first.

74. Fair, but, Maddie, we've been tailing her for a week.

75. We still have no idea how she's connected to Anderson.

76. How were you even friends with her anyway?

77. We were neighbors.

78. You know, it was easy.

79. Then what, she just ditched you one day

80. for these robot sheep?

81. Not exactly.

82. Oh, I can't find it.

83. Where is it?

84. It was a long time ago.

85. Why can't I ever find anything

86. in this fucking house?

87. Mom was having an off day.

88. Who needs all this shit?

89. I can't fucking take it anymore.

90. I just need a little goddamn help.

91. I was 12 years old, and I didn't know

92. how bad things were for Claire at home too.

93. Maddie, please.

94. Maddie, hurry. Come on.

95. Maddie, come on. I can see you.

96. Her parents had been fighting.

97. She was scared, and she needed a place to go.

98. You can't come in.

99. I gotta go.

100. What?

101. Maddie. Maddie, please.

102. But I couldn't help her.

103. I just can't fucking do it anymore.

104. And then what happened?

105. She moved in with her dad for a year.

106. And her mom remarried that rich guy.

107. The one whose face is on all the bus benches?

108. The real estate guy?

109. And when she came back to Split River

110. for middle school, she...

111. looked right through me

112. like I wasn't even there.

113. We never talked after that.

114. Jesus, Maddie.

115. What if she's still holding on to that?

116. I could hear the "Dateline" guy right now.

117. "Childhood wound reopened.

118. The only thing that could heal it, revenge."

119. People hold on to that stuff.

120. Maybe Claire did too.

121. OK, yes.

122. Oh, was it just her backpack?

123. Oh, no. No. No, I understand.

124. Please, uh—yeah, anything.

125. Thank you.

126. They found Maddie's backpack?

127. Where?

128. Deserted house near the old place

129. on the corner of 10th and Lasher.

130. Do you know the house?

131. I've passed it before.

132. I mean, it's always looked empty to me, but—

133. Well, your father thinks that someone's

134. been squatting there.

135. It's Maddie, right?

136. It has to be.

137. Maybe she's scared to come home.

138. Oh.

139. I have so much that I have to do.

140. I just want her to know

141. that everything is gonna be different.

142. Do you want me to finish up with the garage?

143. My free period lasts— - No, no. No. No.

144. No, you've done enough.

145. Just get to school.

146. And thank you.

147. Lip gloss, keys, phone, wallet.

148. More lip gloss, sunglasses.

149. Ooh, mints.

150. Never turn down a mint.

151. On the plus side, there's no murder weapons.

152. Yeah, but there's nothing here.

153. Do we think Mr. Anderson will be chaperoning

154. the dance this year?

155. Can you chaperone wearing an ankle monitor?

156. Maybe if they move the dance to a federal prison.

157. Claire, you OK?

158. Oh, shit. Right.

159. Your parents must be really pissed.

160. Didn't they give, like, a ton of money to the booster club?

161. Yeah, they did.

162. Claire, where are you going?

163. This might be good.

164. Mr. Hartman.

165. - Yes. - Hi.

166. What the fuck has been her deal?

167. You got a minute?

168. For you, I have two. How are you doing, Claire?

169. And what can I do for you?

170. Well, my parents want to know what's going on

171. with Mr. Anderson and the money he stole.

172. Ooh, ouch— let's not toss around

173. toxic words like that.

174. Well, he did steal it, didn't he?

175. I would assure your parents that we have put Mr. Anderson

176. on administrative leave, and the Split River

177. police are investigating.

178. It's been a week.

179. Has he admitted anything?

180. Was he working alone, or did he hint

181. that anyone else was involved?

182. She's fishing.

183. I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation.

184. Yeah, there is.

185. He's a thief.

186. And my parents are gonna lose it

187. if they're dragged into a scandal.

188. That will definitely be the last check

189. they write to this school.

190. - Wow, she is dramatic. - Claire.

191. Claire. Claire. Um—

192. Sorry to cut in.

193. But we need you both back in the gym.

194. They still need help with Wally's banner.

195. Oh, yes. That is right.

196. We were supposed to head back there.

197. I just, like, got sidetracked.

198. Sorry, there were mints. - Right.

199. Well, you've both been gone for hours.

200. There are still people in this school that count on you.

201. Dead people.

202. Since when did you stop majoring in Who Gives a Fuck?

203. We all have to pitch in, pussytoes.

204. I'm sorry. What did she just call me?

205. Yeah.

206. I think it's probably a flower.

207. - OK. - Yeah.

208. Hey, how's that letter to Amelia going?

209. Oh, it's really good. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

210. No, I'm on the 12th draft.

211. And you're telling me now?

212. Well, I just found out myself.

213. Who's your source? Xavier.

214. Simon, we're all on the same side here.

215. What was inside the backpack?

216. They sure it's Maddie's? Did they find a weapon too?

217. Why are you yelling at me?

218. What else is Xavier feeding you?

219. Ask him yourself.

220. - Did you tell him? - She told me.

221. Where is this place?

222. It's an abandoned house on White Oak

223. they're about to tear down.

224. - Who's they? - Claire's stepfather.

225. He owns the whole block. - Yeah, of course he does.

226. Just because he owns the place

227. it doesn't mean she has anything to do with it.

228. You know that. - Right, defend Claire.

229. She's an angel. - That's not what he said.

230. Simon thinks Claire may be connected to what

231. happened to Maddie because—

232. - Because I know things. - Like what?

233. A week ago, you thought I had something

234. to do with this, Simon.

235. Well, maybe I still do.

236. - What's going on with you? - What's going on with you?

237. You take brooding sad boy to Horror Con,

238. suddenly you trust everything that he says?

239. I asked you first, and you said no.

240. Why are you trying so hard to push me away?

241. Did it ever occur to you that I wasn't ready

242. to lose two friends?

243. Nicole, I'm sorry.

244. Nicole, I'm sorry.

245. Nicole.

246. So am I the only one wondering why we couldn't just

247. steal the decorations the school has already made

248. instead of doing this crap ourselves?

249. Well, technically, we did steal from the school.

250. The paint's from the art room.

251. And this helium tank is thanks

252. to a very overeager homecoming committee.

253. Plus, it's also...

254. Kind of a tradition.

255. He's right.

256. Once a year, we're forced to relive Wally's glory days.

257. Hey, at least I had glory.

258. Wait, you died at the homecoming game?

259. Yeah.

260. And my family still shows up for me every year,

261. so I try to show up for them, you know?

262. Wait, you're coming to the game, right?

263. Yeah, but I'm just going to watch the cheerleaders.

264. I think you mean one cheerleader in particular.

265. Excuse me. Can you help me?

266. Is Mrs. Field's classroom on the first floor or—

267. Mom?

268. Thank you.

269. Mr. South?

270. What are you doing down here?

271. I need a key to Mr. Anderson's classroom.

272. No can do. Cops told us keep it locked.

273. Right, but I left my notebook in there.

274. I need to study it for a test.

275. It's only gonna be for a second, Mr. South.

276. No one's gonna know, I promise.

277. I'll know.

278. No, I understand.

279. It's just that notebook was actually my friend's,

280. and it's all I have left.

281. Oh.

282. You got ten minutes.

283. You know they found her backpack.

284. I didn't know that, no.

285. So all the more reason for me to make sure

286. she has everything she needs.

287. Right? - Right.

288. I mean, the last thing I want is for my daughter's absence

289. to affect her college chances.

290. You know, she's applying to Northwestern.

291. I did know that.

292. We used to talk about it, actually.

293. I went there too, and I think that Maddie

294. would really thrive there.

295. Wow.

296. I didn't know that.

297. So did you need help getting her other schoolwork from her—

298. Nope. I got everything.

299. You're my last stop.

300. OK.

301. I know I wasn't—

302. haven't been very involved, you know, in all this stuff.

303. I know I'm not exactly Mother of the Year.

304. Maybe Mother of the Week or Mother of a Couple Days.

305. But I really want to be different for Maddie.

306. I don't know if that makes any sense.

307. No, it does.

308. I think it's great.

309. Mom.

310. You are not gonna believe this.

311. What's wrong?

312. She was here.

313. My mom, just now.

314. And I'm guessing that was a bad thing.

315. Was she—

316. No.

317. She wasn't drunk at all. That's what's weird.

318. She was put together.

319. So—so a good thing then?

320. Maybe.

321. I'm not sure. It just—

322. it's been so long since I've seen her like that,

323. I almost forgot what normal looked like.

324. Well, you want to see something not normal?

325. Take a look at these.

326. What am I looking at?

327. English papers.

328. Claire's English papers.

329. Read that one.

330. "In George Orwell's dystopia, nothing is sacred,

331. not even the privacy of one's own home."

332. OK, it's her paper on "1984."

333. So what? - Now read this one.

334. "In George Orwell's dystopia, nothing is sacred,

335. not even the privacy of one"--

336. I don't understand.

337. That's her paper on "The Scarlet Letter."

338. "Pride and Prejudice."

339. "Lord of the Flies."

340. "And Then There Were None."

341. "Hamlet." They're all the same.

342. She read one book this year but got straight As.

343. So the question is, why?

344. I mean, this is big, right?

345. Yeah, it is.

346. And we should probably look into it,

347. but we can't right now.

348. What? Why?

349. Simon, you didn't see my mom.

350. She was so—

351. and whatever this is, if it comes out,

352. all it means is that the mom I saw in there goes away.

353. You know?

354. Maybe never comes back.

355. So then we just let Claire get away

356. with whatever's going on here?

357. With maybe—maybe playing a part in your death?

358. Simon, it's Claire.

359. You know, she could just pay someone off anyway.

360. And either way, I'm still dead.

361. But maybe if we just put all this on hold...

362. It means my mom can have a life.

363. - Hey. - Oh.

364. Why haven't you answered my texts?

365. Claire, you need to leave right now.

366. What'd you tell the cops?

367. - Go home, Claire. - Tell me.

368. I need to know what you said.

369. I told them the truth.

370. That I took that money to pay off my dad's debt.

371. And that's where I was the night Maddie disappeared,

372. with my father.

373. Is that all right with you?

374. Cool.

375. Can I go?

376. Did you say anything about me?

377. You know what?

378. I don't remember.

379. Go, go, go, go.

380. Yo, a little help?

381. Or not.

382. You mind if I—

383. Don't you have jumping jacks to do or something?

384. Oh, no. I am maxed out.

385. I gotta save myself for the big show.

386. You know?

387. But anyway, what's up with you?

388. How you doing?

389. Oh, shit. Your mom.

390. How'd that go?

391. Well, you know.

392. Happy, sad, weird, but fine.

393. Really?

394. Well, you know, my parents,

395. they've been coming to my games for almost 40 years now.

396. And it is never just fine.

397. Unless we win, of course.

398. Then it's fine.

399. But does your dad do

400. the whole belligerent fan thing?

401. Like, curse at the refs and scream at the coaches?

402. Um...

403. my mom always pushed me

404. to be the best version of myself I could be, you know,

405. on and off the field.

406. - Didn't you die on the field? - Yeah.

407. Yeah, I did.

408. I was right at the five-yard line.

409. And I was running, and then I heard

410. my neck...

411. And it was lights out, but it did not hurt at all.

412. The thing that stings, honestly, is the fact

413. that I didn't die in the end zone.

414. I could have got my mom one more W, you know?

415. That is my cue.

416. Will I see you later?

417. Yeah.

418. All right, it's game time, baby.

419. Whoo!

420. Hello?

421. Hello?

422. Hey!

423. Ladies and gentleman, welcome to Wally Clark

424. Memorial Stadium and Split River High's...

425. Let's go, boys!

426. 67th annual homecoming game!

427. See? It's not so bad, is it?

428. If I thought it would help me cross over,

429. I would go out there and tackle somebody.

430. OK.

431. That's the spirit. I think.

432. - Whoo! - Hey!

433. Ahh!

434. It's game day, baby!

435. Go, Bandits, go!

436. Go, Bandits, go!

437. Claire, thank God you're here.

438. The JV girls are totally ruining the pre-game.

439. I was, like, super worried you wouldn't get here in time—

440. - Well, I'm here. - To yell at them.

441. OK, so just don't worry about it.

442. What are you doing here?

443. Look, man, can you just give me a break?

444. Why are you here?

445. I came to ask Sandra about Maddie's backpack.

446. Well, you could have just asked me.

447. I just went to the house... where they found it.

448. You what?

449. Why would you do that?

450. Because I want answers too, Simon,

451. no matter how hard that is for you to believe.

452. Did you find something?

453. Not something. Someone.

454. You're serious?

455. All right, who was it?

456. I didn't see their face.

457. They flew out of there the second they saw me.

458. Do you think it was Claire?

459. Too hard to tell. Maybe.

460. Honestly, it could have been anyone.

461. Simon.

462. It's so good to see you.

463. Hey, Sandra.

464. Are you here to help?

465. Help with what exactly?

466. Nicole and I are helping Sandra

467. hand out flyers at the game.

468. If these are plastered in enough places,

469. she'll see one and know it's time to come home, right?

470. I mean, she has to.

471. Come on.

472. Let's go.

473. Throw your bike in the truck.

474. What's that all about?

475. What about Charley?

476. I mean, what's he been working on in that notebook all day?

477. Why do I get the sense that everyone's lost focus lately?

478. You keep an eye on her for me, will you?

479. She seems to trust you.

480. I'd just hate for her to backslide

481. and cause anyone else to lose their way.

482. We've come so far.

483. As have you.

484. Yeah.

485. - Yeah? - I can do that.

486. Thank you.

487. Let's go, Split River.

488. Go get them.

489. Thank you, Mr. Ansell.

490. Mwah! I love you. Boom.

491. Boom. Come on. Boom, boom, boom.

492. It is game time, baby.

493. Whoo! - Come on! Move your asses!

494. Hey.

495. You see her?

496. I can run faster than that.

497. That is my mama.

498. She has never missed a game,

499. and she always leaves that empty seat

500. next to her every time.

501. Is it for your dad?

502. No, he stopped coming, like, 15 years ago.

503. I think it's for me.

504. Bring it back.

505. My daughter. She's missing.

506. There. Have you seen her?

507. There you go.

508. Hey, why don't you give me a few more,

509. and I'll put them up in my neighborhood?

510. Oh, thanks.

511. Has anyone heard from him?

512. Mr. Anderson? - No.

513. No, I think his lawyers told him not to talk.

514. All we've heard is that he turned over the money.

515. Thank you.

516. He was always so kind to Maddie.

517. Well, I guess it's true.

518. People can do more than one thing.

519. Well, if he was just stealing money, I don't blame him.

520. This country does not pay teachers enough.

521. - Thanks. - Hey, Ms. Fields?

522. Mm-hmm?

523. Can't they make Mr. Anderson talk?

524. I mean, what if he did have something to do with Maddie?

525. I mean, why she ran away.

526. You know, Nicole, that's really not for us to solve.

527. We're just gonna have to wait and see.

528. Besides, the truth might never come out.

529. I swear, when she's screaming her head off like that,

530. I feel like she can still see me out there.

531. - Maybe she does. - Oh. Eww!

532. Even you just saying that stressed me out.

533. Please tell me both of those are for you.

534. I dare you not to like it.

535. You want to talk about things that stress you out?

536. Hot dogs stress me out.

537. Is it the shape?

538. Whenever my mom was going through a rough patch, um,

539. she mostly cared about what there was to drink.

540. And so I was kind of on my own for dinner.

541. And what does every 13-year-old know how to make?

542. And I got really creative with them.

543. I made frank and beans, hot dog casserole, hot dog omelet.

544. I even once made a hot dog peanut butter and jelly.

545. - Oh, jeez. - Yeah.

546. That's not good.

547. I had no idea about your mom.

548. Kind of rough times.

549. Uh... sorry.

550. Everyone's haunted by something.

551. Well, here's to mama drama, then, huh?

552. Clink.

553. You know, it is really impressive

554. that your mom is still celebrating something

555. that you love.

556. Well, actually, it was my mom's idea

557. that I play football.

558. But you love it, right?

559. Nah, I don't.

560. I mean, I don't mind it.

561. I'm really good at it.

562. But, um, I played it for her.

563. - And you never told her that? - Oh, my God. No way.

564. That would—I—that would— that would break her heart.

565. Wally, you know that you don't

566. have to do what she wants anymore.

567. You can do whatever the hell you want.

568. Yeah.

569. But I don't know if I know how to do that.

570. Is it hard seeing him?

571. It's getting easier.

572. Especially now that I'm 95% sure he didn't kill me.

573. But, um, it is kind of weird seeing him pass out

574. flyers with my face on them.

575. Wait.

576. That's my mom's favorite picture of me.

577. How did Xavier get that photo?

578. This is my daughter.

579. What does it say about me

580. if I'd rather never know what happened to me

581. if it means my mom will stay sober?

582. I mean, what does it say about me that I keep coming

583. back to the field I died on

584. to watch the game that killed me

585. because I think it'll make my mom proud?

586. Maybe my mom holding on to the hope

587. that I might come back some day is enough to keep her going.

588. But you're not.

589. You're not coming back.

590. The number. Thank you.

591. I'm all out.

592. Oh, there's more in that box over there.

593. Well, maybe you've forgotten what we talked about.

594. I absolutely have not.

595. But I'm going to get caught, and so are you

596. if we're not smart about this.

597. Well, maybe you should have thought about that

598. before you stole that money.

599. My parents' money.

600. I am doing everything you ask, OK?

601. Listen, I can't get anything less than an A, OK?

602. It's important.

603. So just do what you said you would do,

604. and your secret will be safe.

605. Got it?

606. Did you guys get it too?

607. Yeah. Why'd they send it to us?

608. Yeah, and who the hell recorded it?

609. Go, Bandits, go.

610. Let's go, 20.

611. Hey, watch 12.

612. Watch 12. Whew.

613. Hey, Wally, what's going on?

614. Mom, you should not be down here.

615. And you shouldn't be on that bench.

616. Where's Dad?

617. He's up there, and he agrees with me, OK?

618. Well, Mom, Coach wants me to rest my knee, so—

619. Well, you know what they say. You can rest when you're dead.

620. Do you want me to talk to him?

621. No. No, don't—don't talk to the—

622. OK, you know, Mom, he said he's gonna

623. put me in later, so you don't have to worry about it.

624. Later doesn't win scholarships, Wally.

625. OK?

626. OK, well, I think he's right.

627. Honey, if Coach was always right,

628. he'd be coaching in the pros

629. and not benching high schoolers.

630. - He's my coach. - You're a star.

631. I'm gonna listen to what he's saying.

632. And he needs to play you.

633. Now you just march over to him

634. and tell him you're fine, all right?

635. Tell him you want back in. And make me proud.

636. Come on, Devils.

637. Come on, Devils!

638. Hey. Hey.

639. We need to talk now.

640. - Uh— - Shh.

641. Watch.

642. I can't get anything less than an A.

643. So just do what you said you would do,

644. and your secret will be safe.

645. If Claire knows about this video

646. and she thinks you took it, that's motive.

647. I'm no better than him.

648. Better than who?

649. What are we talking about?

650. I can't protect my mom by giving up.

651. She has to know I'm not coming home, good or bad.

652. You know, she has to move on.

653. So do I.

654. What do we do now?

655. And you had no idea this was going on?

656. Of course not.

657. All I know is what Simon told us

658. about Mr. Anderson's phone call

659. and the money and the phone shard.

660. Are you sure that's all?

661. What the fuck, Nicole?

662. All I did was take Maddie's phone

663. so I could delete that stupid cheating text.

664. I mean, Claire must have stolen it,

665. swapped it with a blank one.

666. Maybe I should just show this video to my dad.

667. No, you can't do that.

668. He's gonna think you had something to do with it again,

669. and we don't have time to keep clearing your name.

670. Xavier.

671. I think I'm done for tonight.

672. Can we just head home?

673. Are you OK?

674. I think it's too much.

675. I shouldn't have...

676. I just need to go home—

677. now.

678. I can take you, Sandra.

679. Would you?

680. I just need to take care of something.

681. - Everything cool? - Yeah.

682. Just keep me updated. Text me if anything happens.

683. Come on.

684. Hey, Simon, what's up?

685. What are we gonna do about this video?

686. It's about what you have to do.

687. Win back Claire's confidence, and then you crack her.

688. But how am I gonna do that?

689. Simon, tell him to ask her to the homecoming dance.

690. Ask her to the homecoming dance.

691. You're shitting me, right?

692. The girl hates me.

693. After Maddie disappeared, I pushed her away,

694. and it really pissed her off.

695. Claire doesn't want anything to do with me.

696. Apologize. Send her a text.

697. Apologize.

698. Send her a text.

699. What do I say?

700. I'll tell you.

701. I'm gonna try this. I don't think it's gonna work.

702. - I know I hurt you. - I know I hurt you.

703. I feel your sadness, and I'm sorry.

704. I feel your anger, and I deserve that.

705. I feel your sadness, and I'm sorry.

706. I feel your anger, and I—

707. - I deserve that. - I deserve that.

708. I wish I could erase what happened.

709. And if there's anything I can do to make it up to you,

710. I want to try.

711. I wish I could erase what happened.

712. If there's any way I can make it up to you, I want to try.

713. Yeah, hold up, dude. You're going too fast.

714. I miss you.

715. I want to be with you.

716. Go to the homecoming dance with me.

717. I miss you.

718. I want to be with you.

719. Go to the homecoming dance with me.

720. Are you OK?

721. Yeah, man. I'm good.

722. So what now?

723. Send it.

724. Let's go! Come on!

725. Maddie, hey.

726. Hi.

727. I just wanted to thank you.

728. I don't know, I just—I feel—

729. Free. Yeah.

730. You know, I don't think I've ever met anybody

731. like you before.

732. Yeah. Well, same.

733. Yeah.

734. Definitely never been to a football game before.

735. Yeah.

736. Well, I mean, I've—

737. I don't feel like I've ever been able to talk to someone

738. like I can talk to you.

739. Yeah.

740. Tonight was nice.

741. Do you want to go to the dance with me?

742. As friends.

743. You can totally say no, Maddie.

744. I just—you know, it's your first time.

745. I thought maybe I could— you're gonna be there anyway.

746. Sure, Wally.

747. All right, that's— all right, that's, uh, cool.

748. That's really cool.

749. I will—I'll see you at the dance.

750. So hell yeah.

751. All right.

752. Hey.

753. I know this may be a stretch, but I think I know

754. who may have taken that video.

755. When you gave me your keys earlier,

756. was it because there was something

757. you wanted me to know?

758. I don't understand.

759. Did you want me to find something, Mr. South?

760. Simon, if I've got something to say, I say it.

761. But when I came by this morning,

762. you were watching a video, and you hid it from me.

763. And now we get sent this video,

764. and I'm thinking it could be you.

765. Simon, I was hiding it

766. because I didn't want you to get hurt.

767. Ever since they found your friend's blood on the wall,

768. all kinds of looky-loos been coming down here sightseeing.

769. Who would have thought I'd be the number one stop

770. on a haunted tour?

771. I had to document everything for the school district.

772. People wrote things on the wall that were...

773. disrespectful.

774. That was on me.

775. Don't blame yourself.

776. All right?

777. This isn't on you.

778. I'll clean it up.

779. You still need help?

780. Sorry to make you leave early.

781. Oh, no. I don't mind.

782. Pretty sure we were losing anyway.

783. Do you think Maddie will forgive me and come home?

784. I'd like to think we can be forgiven for anything

785. if our heart's in the right place.

786. Can I have a hug?

787. Of course.

788. I needed that.

789. I'll help you get the stuff in the car.

790. Oh, no, no. I got it.

791. You can get in the car.

792. It's OK.

793. Here.

794. Simon.

795. We got bigger things to worry about.

796. Can you ask Mr. South if he knows

797. where this door leads to?

798. How did I not know we had a fallout shelter?

799. Mr. South said it's been here since the Cold War.

800. That it hasn't been used in decades.

801. Wait.

802. We can talk down there.

803. Doesn't that mean that somebody died?

804. Yeah. But who?

805. Where do you think that goes?

806. No idea.

807. But I'm guessing this is how Claire

808. dragged your body out of here.
