We're sorry. You have reached
a number that has been disconnected.
Do you know anywhere to stay around here?
Sorry.
Hello? Hello?
Destiny? If this is you, please come home. Hello!
I don't speak Spanish.
Get off me!
Get off me! Get off me!
Are you okay?
Come with us.
Just come check it out.
A hot meal, a shower, a good night's sleep.
Well, what is this, like, a cult?
We don't use that word.
And if it's not for you, you can totally leave.
No strings, I swear.

Alex? Alex?
Hey, Alex, it's breakfast.
Your mom's been calling for you.
Ah, I'm sorry.
I haven't seen you play this in a long while.
It's what I used to play with her.
Well, maybe I could step in.
Ah, no offense, Dad, but she was a lot better than you.
- Mom's cooking. - Don't sound so surprised.
I made pancakes, your favorite.
I'm good with juice. Thanks.
Look, the special food, being extra nice to me,
you guys don't have to do all this.
Alex, it's time.
At first we gave you space.
But two years?
You spend all your time alone.
I like hanging out with myself.
Okay, how many people can say that?
Plus, college isn't too far into the future.
I'll just... I'll make new friends then.
The kids that know you when you're young...
no one will ever know you like that again.
Don't give up on that.
- On them. - Right.
'Cause you've done such a great job
keeping in touch with your old friends from the 'hood.
Well, I have a lot of things I need to do today,
like prepare for court,
and the PRIDE meeting we are hosting tonight.
- Don't remind me. - You guys do realize
that it's a volunteer charity organization, right, not the mob?
Could get out if you wanted to.
Maybe give some other rich people
the opportunity for a tax write-off.
This school we're building is gonna do a lot of good
for kids less fortunate than you.
It's from your father's so-called 'hood. I have to take this.
Just think about it, all right?
Those friends of yours are probably feeling
the exact same way you are today.
Actually, they're doing just fine.
Or maybe they're better at hiding what's really going on.

The door to Amy's room was opened.
Tina, what's going on?
- Mom. - What are you doing in here?
Borrowing some tights. Mine had a hole.
I'm leaving.
You know the rules.
- If Amy was here, she'd let me... - But Amy is not here.
So what does it matter if I take her tights?
Mom... I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to...
It was an accident. I can fix it.
Just go.

Breakfast ready.
Is he in there?
He is.
Hey, Dad.
Hi. Big win last night against Harvard-Westlake.
- Mm. - Sorry you weren't there to see it.
Me too, son. Heard you played great.
Though I also heard...
you got a "C" in Spanish.
I'm definitely gonna try harder.
If you were really afraid of me...
you'd be getting an "A."
Thank you.
Thanks.
It is the simplest gift you can give,
and yet the most powerful...
to let someone know...
"Hey. I see you."
And that power is yours to offer.
Because that gift is a smile.
Let us close by reading together the words that my father,
David Ellerh, first wrote.
"Light fills a dark room."
Look, I have to go. Phil wants to meet up.
Agent-actor check-in.
If he wants to meet me in person,
must be good news.
- Okay. Bye, sweetie. - Bye, Dad.
- Thank you so much for coming. - Thank you.
- Have a blessed day. - Thanks.
Oh, hey, sorry, can I talk to you for a second?
- Sure. - I have to go to school,
but I need you to sign this.
It's a permission slip for the trip to San Francisco,
the Art Institute.
- This is for tonight? - Yeah.
Honey, out of the question.
The Vanity Fair article. The writer's bringing a photographer.
I need you to be there.
You're the millennial face of the church.
Yeah, but can't I do it another time?
Just this once? I mean, you didn't even ask me.
It's like you assume I'll do whatever you want.
Karolina, there's a lot going on right now.
Yeah, and there's lot going on with me too,
not that you would even notice.
You okay?
No. I feel really weird.
Oh, Molly, sweetie, we had this talk.
Menstruation's a blessing, not a curse.
You just do your breathing exercises
and drink the chamomile tea I put in your thermos.
If that doesn't work,
go to the bathroom and give yourself an orgasm.
Mom, seriously?
The oxytocins are a natural pain reliever.
- It is good advice. - I'm putting in my earbuds now.
- Listen to Mom. - Dance squad tryouts are today.
Dance squad is just cheerleading without pom-poms.
You're just reinforcing hegemonic masculinity
while marginalizing women's identity.
Sure, but I love the outfits.
Oh, and Gert, your new meds are in your backpack.
Fewer side effects than the Lexapro,
and not so much with the constipation.
Oh, are you a little bit backed-up, Gert? I have some bran bars.
- Oh, yeah. - Let me tell ya, Dad is on the regular.
- Don't you want your...? - Bye, Dale. Bye, Stacey.
- ...bran bars? Goodbye, sweetie! - Love you!
- Bye! - Love you!
Yeah, tell all your friends. Everyone's welcome.
Hey, do you want to join my new club?
Tell all your friends. Everyone's welcome.
Hey, Chase, I was thinking, do you want to join my new club?
Hey, loser.
Tragic.
Hope you have a beautiful day.
Can't believe you were ever friends with her.
Hey, Mom, thinking of having
a little get-together tonight at the house.
- Is that cool? - Tonight?
Yeah, I figured like old times.
You know, when parents have their annual PRIDE meeting
while we all hang out and make fun of you all behind your backs.
So that's what went down.
I mean, who knows if they'll even say yes.
Well, you won't know unless you take a chance.
Tonight's fine. We'd love to see the kids.
Need me to do anything?
- Uh, keep the liquor cabinet unlocked? - Nice try.
Okay, how about pizza and sodas for seven?
- Six. - Alex.
It's okay, Mom, I got this.
I hope you're right about this not being a big deal.
We used to do it all the time with the kids in the house.
Besides, they're teenagers.
The last thing they're interested in is what their parents are doing.
We're ready.
Tonight, another becomes eternal.
We hear so much lip service about women's empowerment,
as if women aren't already powerful,
but, I mean, do you ever hear anyone talking about masculine authority?
Of course not! Because it's already baked into the concept, am I right?
My point is that the system needs to be dismantled,
which is why I'm starting a new club on campus,
undermining the patriarchy.
We can celebrate our self-worth while taking down the man!
I only need four members for the club
to be officially recognized by the school, so...
Gert has prepared some literature,
so just raise your hand if you're interested,
and she will sign you up.
You have until the bell for first period.
Any other announcements?
Whoa, are those the, uh,
God, what did you call them, handblasters?
It's so cool you're still working on it.
Handblasters? No, these would be bionic prosthetics
using myoelectric sensors.
I'm calling them Fist...
Wait, why am I even talking to you?
Actually, I was talking to you.
I was thinking that maybe you might want
to get together tonight, just all of us, like we used to.
Seriously, Wilder? You think I'll come over
to hang out like we're still friends?
- Just keep your voice down. - Wait, you're joking. He's joking, right?
That is what I expected you to say, Gert,
which is why I was hoping
that if I could get Chase on board first and...
Oh, right, because I totally make all my decisions based
off of what some roided-out jockstrap has to say.
Hey! I've got opinions.
Right, about what flavored protein powder to use, right?
And we really admire you for it.
Classic Gert, you see?
This kind of delightful banter
is why I think we should all get together
and hang out at my place tonight.
You're having people over tonight?
Why, are you interested?
Oh, no, I'm sorry, I can't. I have a church thing.
You could just come by after that.
It doesn't have to interfere with your religion.
Religion, is that what we're calling it now?
What I believe in is positive and life-affirming,
and it doesn't allow me to be cut down by some miserable loser.
Oh, think she was referring to you, Wilder!
But you do realize that no institution
has been as oppressive to women as organized religion.
Except my mother runs my church.
You call yourself a feminist, Gert,
yet no one cuts down other women more than you do.
Not all of them, no, just the ones who walk around with fake smiles
- pretending to be happy all the time. - Okay, guys...
At least I'm trying. When was the last time you took a shower?
Okay, because having shiny hair
somehow gives you moral authority!
Also, yesterday.
Yo, Chase. Let's roll.
- I gotta go. - 'Cause of these guys?
You used to make fun of kids like them.
Yeah, and now we make fun of kids like you.
And you wanted us all to hang out?
Not for me...
for her.
♪ We gon' make you lose control ♪
Thank you, Hanna, that was awesome.
Um, next we have Molly Hernandez.
Sorry, um, I have some bad cramps.
Okay, why don't you go to the meditation center
and breathe through the pain? Or the nurses' office.
We can reschedule this.
Next!
I'm just saying if there's any way you can find it
in your heart, just to reconsider this grade.
I don't grade with my heart. I use my head and a red pen.
But in the case of your test, I might've needed two.
Oh, sick burn, Señor Walter!
Much respect!
Sir, look, I know I've been messing up.
I want to change. I just need a little help.
Let me re-take the midterm, do a project for extra credit...
- Try studying next time. - Sir, please, I can't get a "C."
Look, I appreciate your new enthusiasm for learning,
but there's nothing I can do.
Señor Walter is such a dick, right?
I mean, doesn't he realize that this is
an elite Westside private school,
and if one of his overprivileged students wants his grade changed,
- it's gonna happen. - How long were you listening?
Just long enough to realize you need help.
My dad's just really on my ass.
I can't ask him to pay for a tutor.
You could ask me.
What, to pay for my tutor?
No, I could help you learn Spanish.
I could tutor you.
You'd really do that?
Sure, yeah. I mean, obviously you're in dire need of saving,
and given my mastery of the foreign tongue,
it would be selfish of me to not share it with you.
My skills, not my tongue.
That sounds like Spanish to me.
Tonight? I'll pay for the coffee?
I'll drink it.
Yo. So Brando's cousin's promoting at some downtown party tonight.
He told me to invite whoever, no IDs needed.
Bro, we're so going.
- Tonight, huh? - Yeah.
There she is!
Check out the freak show!
Hey, Nico, I've been wanting to talk to you all day.
Actually, it's been longer than that,
a lot longer.
Maybe you heard... hopefully you didn't...
that I wanted to get everybody back together.
Just it turns out I'm the only one that feels that way.
And I know that it can't be like it was, but the truth...
I miss you guys.
Okay...
The real, real truth?
I miss you, Nico.

You?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I think it's just allergies or something.
Is it just me, or is there, like, an impossible amount of pollen in the air?
Think I read that somewhere.
Not enough bees or some shit.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I think that's gotta be it.
If you want a tutorial, check YouTube.
Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to stare.
It's just that you know that you don't need all that, Nico.
You don't have to hide who you really are.
Some people hide behind makeup...
others behind a smile.
It's still hiding.
See?
Here you go.
It will take a moment for the meds to kick in.
How long is a moment?
Have you talked to your mom?
- Does she have these same issues? - I don't know. I'm adopted.
Well, your birth mother made a very brave choice.
Oh, it wasn't a choice. My parents died in a fire.
The Yorkes are really nice, though.
Stacey's very knowledgeable about herbs and breathing and stuff.
It's just none of it's working.
Well, that's why we have modern medicine.
I'll be right back.
Aah!
Everything okay in there?
Yeah... I feel way better, actually.
There are so many young members of our congregation
inspired by our message,
and not just because we have cool free jewelry.
The day that you get your bracelet
is one that you'll never forget,
unless you're me...
I kind of feel like I was born with mine.
It's funny, I've actually never taken it off.
Karolina, hi. I don't mean to interrupt.
I just wanted to tell Ms. Dean how grateful I am
for everything that her mother's done for me.
Thanks. That's wonderful.
Yeah, my parents weren't there for me.
My life was one big rebellion.
Just drama and chaos, and...
I'm sorry. What am I doing?
Just giving my testimonial.
You're really lucky to have your mom.
I'm sorry, can you guys just give me just one... one second. Sorry.
Tell me about it.
Okay. Do you believe that one person
can step into your life and change...
Oh, no, not about my mom. Rebelling.
What's it like?
Hello?
Dale? Stacey?
You got this. Okay, you got this one.
I got this.
Okay...
Okay, start small.
Come on, bend!
Come on.
Yeah!
Yes!
Yeah! I did it!
Hey, Janet, have you done
something different with your hair?
Thank you for noticing, Robert.
Forgive me if I'm too busy changing the world
to notice that your bangs have grown out.
Every year, the Yorkeses bring
that same disgusting cheese wheel.
I mean, seriously, who makes their own brie?
I liked it.
Smell your fingers.
- Hey, Tina. - Smells good!
My WizPhone isn't downloading my mail.
Can you take a look?
Little below my paygrade, Stacey.
I'm the CEO, not tech support.
We fixed that glitch in the new update.
Let me just download...
Oh, yeah, if you could just make sure
that her music library is backed up.
She has got every tasty Phish bootleg
going back to Burlington '92.
If you haven't heard Trey's 14-minute guitar solo on "Sample in a Jar,"
- you've not heard music. - Oh, yeah.
I will never understand how they were allowed into PRIDE.
Everyone's here for a reason.
Indeed.
Hey!
Yes! Boom, boom, boom, Sugar Ray!
Knockdown in the eighth!
Man, every time I come here, I am blown away.
You are killing it in the real estate game.
- Made some sound investments. - Oh, come on, you're being modest.
You done good from the 'hood, my brother!
That is probably not something I'm allowed to say.
- Wouldn't recommend it. - Noted.
Let's get started.
Before we begin, a toast
to the good work of the PRIDE Foundation.
I'm proud to announce we've surpassed
our fundraising goals in record time.
- To PRIDE. - To PRIDE.
Hey, Alex, you're home.
What's up, buddy?
Thought you were inviting your friends over tonight.
Everything's set up for you.
Yeah, I invited them over, all of them,
and as you can see, it went really well,
so I will be out back eating my way through pizza for six.
If it's any consolation,
Nico's never been the same, either.
We know how hard this must be for you both, especially tonight.
- To PRIDE. - To PRIDE.

Hey, guys. Here you go. More food.
- Hello? - Something weird's going on at the house.
Can you get me, please? I don't want to be here.
Where are we supposed to go?
I don't care, just not here!
- Close the door, bro. - What the...?
Get away from her!
Hey! Hey! Hey!
You're dead!
Chase? What happened?
I'm getting you out of here.
How you feeling?
I'm totally fine now.
It was so weird.
The last thing I remember were these lights.
They were really beautiful.
Yeah. Yeah, it's called drugs.
Clearly, you took some strong shit.
Okay, this is yours.
If you want to go home, I can get my own ride.
No, I don't want to be alone,
and I definitely don't want to go home.
Anywhere but there.

Okay, how about suggestions,
then, just anything you guys...
What are you doing? That was her chair.
Sit wherever you want. She's gone.
This is too weird.
Maybe we just don't work without her.
Yeah. I'm outta here.
No, come on, guys!
Listen, we can't blame Amy
for the fact that we don't hang out anymore.
Fine. I blame you.
You didn't come to the funeral!
Everyone grieves in their own way.
At funerals with their friends.
Yeah, who would ever do that,
not show up when a friend is expecting them?
I'm just saying, Wilder not showing up
was the first crack in the wall.
That wall was always coming down.
We were friends because our parents were friends.
We were just kids. We were always gonna grow apart.
Plus, it's kind of hard to stay friends with someone
when all they care about is being the perfect church girl.
Better than the insufferable social justice warrior.
- Or a dumb jock. - Yeah, or Molly.
I've got nothing against you. You're really nice.
What about me?
Nico...
Whatever I am now, it's not Amy.
Sorry to let you all down.
What? No, come on. Nobody's thinking that.
Great party, Alex. Thanks for all the pizza and sadness.
Yeah, for once I agree with Chase.
What are we doing here?
We'd all moved on. We were doing fine.
No, none of us is fine,
and I, for one, am sick of pretending that I am.
We need to sit together and talk this through.
Fine. Then I'm gonna need some alcohol.
What? Hey...
Where are you going?
As I recall, your dad keeps a bottle
of Pappy Van Winkle's in his study.
I've been sipping on it since I was 13.
Yeah, but they're in there now, having their meeting!
Hey, Alex, can I ask you a question?
Yeah.
You still never told me
why you didn't come to the funeral.
I guess what difference does it make?
It wouldn't bring her back.
Thanks for doing this... tonight.
For me.
Hey, Alex!
You can take the stick out of your ass now. They're gone.
- Don't touch anything, okay? - Too late!
Dad says there's no reason to be in here when he's not.
Why is my mom's purse here?
Where are they?
I don't know, and I don't care.
All right, he must've moved the good stuff.
This'll do.
Bourbon on the rocks, shaken, not stirred.
I don't think so.
Hey.
Hey, look, I'm sorry about tonight.
Clearly you got a better offer.
It's not like that.
Look, I was a total douche, okay, and...
I don't know, maybe we can try again.
That means no.
Wow, you really do need a tutor.
And she needs a lime.
And a coaster.
What the...?
Holy shit, what just happened?
You mean other than a secret passageway opening?
Where does it go?
Bomb shelter?
No, a kick-ass wine cellar, definitely.
In the past when religions are being persecuted,
sometimes believers would build secret temples to worship.
Yeah, but this is Brentwood, not Bethlehem.
This is some Narnia shit.
There's only one way to find out.
Let's do it.
How long has this been under my house?
Longer than your house has been over it.
I'm cold.
Houses in LA, they don't even have basements.
I'm not sure "basement" is the right way
to describe whatever the hell this is.
What is happening?
Shh!
I don't think they can hear us.
There's, like a... a barrier.
What kind of charity meeting is this?
Wait, guys, that's my mom!
Who is she with?
I know that girl!
Okay, the creep factor just went up to, like, 11.
- Molly, you can't unsee this. - Gert!
- What just happened?! - Gert, I wanna see, too!
- Wait, don't! - No!
What the hell was that?
