Previously on
The Booth at the End.

You make
things happen. Like magic.

There's something you need?

I want to hear God again.

I offer you
a task. You do the task.

You get what you want.

I think I want my son to live.

What do I have to do?

You're going
to have to rob a bank.

I want you to help someone.

Help a kid.

I'll bring it
to Andy's this weekend.

You built the bomb?

So where's the money?

Detective, you didn't do it.

Do you make
everyone who comes to you

Hurt someone?

Only some.

You need some more water?

No, thanks.

Are you a writer?

No, not really.

It's just I see
you in here every day.

Just... Just working.

What do you do? You a reporter?

Is that why you're always
talking to people, taking notes?

It's private, actually.

Then why do you do it in here?

- Is there a problem?
- Should I talk to the manager?

I don't get it.

I did it. I was holding
him in a storage unit, tied up,

Like you said.

Did he know when
you went back for him what

You were going to do?

He must have.

His eyes were wide,
started struggling.

He saw me.

He started screaming
through the gag.

What was he
saying. Could you tell?

He was innocent.

You said he was
charged with the murder of

His girlfriend and her mother?

Yeah.

But he was a suspect, not...

Not convicted.

He killed his
girlfriend and her mother.

But he wasn't convicted.

He was guilty... enough.

I drove him out of town,
someplace out of the way.

What was that like?

It was a drive.

A man tied up
in your back seat as you

Drove him to his execution.

He was kicking
against the back of my

Seat the whole way.

I found the spot, I dug a
grave, I shot him, buried him.

So what's next?

Answer your phone.

Yeah?

Mm... mm.

They got a lead on the
guy who robbed the bank.

He'll have the
money you want, you know?

How did you do that?

I didn't. You did.

If I do what you
ask, I'll hear God again, yes?

Yes.

So, what is it?

What do I have to do
to hear God again?

Become pregnant.

I can't.

Technically, you can.

I can't.

You mean, you mustn't.

However, if you do, you
will hear God again.

What do
you mean, become pregnant?

You must be with a man...

I'll be kicked out of my order.

That's not my concern.

It's a concern to me.

These are the terms.

And I'll hear God again?

Just as you did in years past.

Yes.

Yes.

Are there any other conditions?

Only that you
tell me the details.

I found someone, a shut-in.

He hasn't been
outside in 10 years.

How did you find him?

I volunteered for this
sort of Meals On Wheels thing.

They do deliveries to the
elderly and people who

Can't go out, and people
like Ron who don't want

To go out.

What's he... What's he like?

He's kind of friendly.

He's got pictures on his
walls, you know, photographs.

Of what?

People. Just people...

Out in the world.
He's got "agrow"...

Agoraphobia.

That's it. He's
just not used to people.

It took me awhile, but I got
him to start talking to me.

We got some money...
Enough to keep the

Restaurant open this month.

That's good news.

His friend died
Left us some money.

I mean, it's terrible
that this happened,

But it's good, you know?

Did his friend die
because of what I'm doing?

Hmm?

Because I've started...

I don't know.

You have to know.

I don't know.

Look, Melody, you can
stop whenever you want.

Things might even get
better on their own.

But this way it's sure, right?

If I do this thing, then my
dad gets all the money he needs?

Yes.

Okay, I'll go back.

I'll get Ron to leave his
apartment, like you asked.

How will you do that?

You said that he has
a clinical condition.

I don't know.

Do you think I can do it?

I don't think
I've ever given a task to

Anyone that they couldn't do.

I told them I was a gardener.

A gardener?

Yeah, and I got
some tools and went up and

Down the street
introducing myself.

To be near the girl?

Mmm.

To protect the girl.

And one of the families,
they hired me to work,

So I'll be working
there in the mornings.

But not the girl's house.

Well, I can see
her house from where I work,

So I keep an eye on her.

And, uh, what
about when she's at school?

I applied for a
job there, too, as a janitor.

You're really jumping into this.

I haven't had
a job in a long time.

I never would have tried
to be a janitor, but...

Unless I was trying to get
something that I wanted.

Protect the girl,
get the centerfold.

Good to have a focus.

Mm... mm.

You can only get what
you imagine you can get.

What do you mean, Willem?

Just, in watching this family,

The girl and her
parents, the father,

He seems to have this
really strong vision of

Live, a good life.

You have a vision, huh?

Some girl from a centerfold.

That isn't what you want?

It's all I can imagine.

Do I need a weapon?

A weapon.

You said to protect her,

From somebody, I guess.

I didn't say anything like that.

You don't say anything.

This is how you get off, huh?

You can stop any
time you want, Willem.

Nah.

I wanted to show you something.

A gun.

For the robbery.

Where'd you get it?

My stepbrother has a cousin.

Your first gun.

Yeah.

What's it feel like, holding it?

Like leaving the
neighborhood on a weekend night.

You don't know the rules.
Anything might happen.

Have you fired it yet?

- I took some classes.
- It's scary, but good.

Will it be loaded
when you do the robbery?

Why?

'Cause if it's
loaded, someone might get shot.

And if it's not loaded,
no one can get shot.

I think I will load it,

To make it feel
more real, right?

If I'm going to do this thing.

Is that what you think?

H-huh.

How'd it go?

He got away

Who?

The guy who robbed the bank.

But you got the money.

You said you wanted the money

I wanted the guy.

You said you wanted the money.

I wanted the money to find

The guy who robbed the bank.

You weren't precise.

Where is he?

I have no idea.

The hell you don't.

I don't.

You know things.

I - don't know this.

What happened?

I told you, he got away.

Tell me the details, Detective.

My partner got a tip...
That call I got the other day.

He went in the front
door, I took the back.

The kid... the thief
slipped out a window.

I gave a chase, he got away...

Left the money from the heist.

The thief was a child?

Nah.

You said he was a kid.

26, whatever. Just...

Why are you lying to me?

I'm not lying.

Who is he... to you?

Nah. No more
games. Just tell me.

Detective, I don't know.

Then how the hell
did I end up with the money?

I killed that guy,
I got the money.

'Cause that's how it works.

Who is he to you?

I already killed a guy for you.

You want more?

Just make me a deal.

Tell me what to do.

Let us be clear
about this, Detective.

You murdered a man for you.

He was a dirtbag!

So you said, but
you still killed him in

Exchange for what you wanted.

My kid is none of your business.

Well, then we've
got nothing left to talk about.

I placed it.

You did?

Finished it,
and I put it in at Andy's,

The coffee shop.

You're having second thoughts.

I saw those
families, children playing.

I put the bomb on
wheelies, you know?

The wheelie thing... cart?

The hand cart?

It's small, in a suitcase.

And, uh, mostly
metal shards, heavy.

It'll do the most damage.

For a moment, I imagined
I saw it... the metal

Cutting through those people.

And then I thought, "Who
am I to take the lives of"

"These people just because
I want my husband back?"

Well, the choice is
always yours to proceed or not.

And then I
thought, "Who am I not to?"

How many people kill
others one way or another

"For things they want?"

So, I'll go back to Andy's
this weekend when it's

Most crowded to be sure to
kill the number of people

You said I was supposed to kill.

I just want you to be ready.

I will have my husband back.

Simon, how are you?

I'm fine.

Have you been reconsidering?

I have an offer.

I am willing to give up
my success as a painter...

That's not the
offer that's on the table.

Just hear me out
plea... I don't have to

Sell my paintings anymore.

I just want to look
at my work and know.

And that can happen,

But the offer is the same
as it was three months ago.

Become a father.

I told you three months ago,

That's not what I do.

You don't have to be good at it.

I can't.

You can ignore
the child if you wish,

But in order to become the
kind of painter you want

To become, this is what
you must do... father a child.

There's someone
watching the girl.

The girl I'm supposed to kill.

I'm sure.

There's a man. I've seen
him around the neighborhood.

He's the gardener.

Gardener?

I know, it sounds
crazy, but I'm supposed

To kill a little girl
to save my son's life.

I have spent so much time
explaining to myself why

It's better off she die.

And now, I think there's
someone watching over her.

Can I choose another child?

No.

Yes, I can.

No, you can't.

Another child.

What one
begins, one must finish.

Those are the rules.

Someone is watching her!

Just because
a client finds a task

Difficult doesn't mean he
gets to change the task.

What if he knows?

Did you tell someone about me?

I've told no-one about you.

I have spent so
much time watching her,

Watching how her
parents treat her.

How they tug her hand
every time they want her

To follow along, how they
smack her cheek every time

She says something
they don't like.

They snap at her.

Do they do this often?

They do it enough.

They do it enough,
and I think to myself,

"She'd be better off dead."

James, right
now, what are you feeling?

Anger, because
I can't get my way.

But you can.

It may be complicated,
but you can.

How you doing today?

Fine, thanks.

Do you want some more hot water?

Yeah, please.

Is there something
I can help you with?

No.

Then I'm going
to get back to work.

You're like a
therapist or something, right?

Am I?

Well... I've watched you.

You listen to people,
the people that show up

And talk to you.

I don't know, I guess I
just wanted to say I think

It's great, how you care
so much what people say.

That's all.

You said I was
supposed to come visit

You and tell you how it's going?

Yes, yes, please.

Well, I've got to
say it's not going very well.

Which part?

All of it. Dating.

It's not something that I
ever really thought about.

You're actually
trying to date people?

Because the task only
required that you...

I get pregnant?

Yeah.

Well, it can't just be anybody.

Well, it could.

No, no.

If I'm gonna do this, I
want it to be with someone

I could want to be with.

Where are you
going to meet people?

I tried bars.

It's like Mass with too
much wine and everyone

Praying to get laid.

If you can really
let me hear Him,

Just let me hear Him.

- No.
- I can't do anything.

You have to do it,
what we agreed upon.

Don't make me.

I'm not.

I took a vow.

So keep it or break it and lie.

Get pregnant, have a child,

Give the child away,
return to your former life.

No one has to know.

There are options.

But it would be my child.

I met her.

Who?

The woman.

The woman?

The woman, the
one I'm doing this for

From the magazine. Her.

You met her?

I was getting coffee,

And she was on line
right behind me.

I didn't recognize her at first,

But then some guy started
talking to her and I

Overheard her say she
was in town at a club.

A club?

A strip club.

She seemed really friendly.

It's just like you said.

If I started doing the
thing, I'd see proof.

It's cause of this, isn't it?

It's 'cause I'm doing the deal.

Most likely.

You don't know?

It's not something I control.

What do you mean?

I control less than you think.

So it just sort of happens?

If you watch over
and protect the little girl,

You get the woman.
That's how it works.

So, wait, so,
you're the middle man?

The man in the middle?

So who's on the
other side of you?
