EVE: So, down this way is the bathroom,

which I would like everyone to use.

I don't want semi-strangers using

my master bedroom bathroom.

This is a new parent dinner for third grade parents

and my husband and I are some of the new parents.

We want to make an impression. [whispering]: We don't want

to start a party war, if you know what I mean.

[laughing]: Parents just get so competitive.

No problem. Absolutely.

Now, I was thinking of putting the bar out here on the patio

because that'll force people to mingle, right?LEE: Yeah, I agree.

That way, everyone has to go all the way through your house

and see everyone if they want to get a drink.

That's what I was thinking. Anna!

Oh. [speaking Spanish]

Wait. Am I going to have to rent heaters for the patio?[doorbell rings, phone chimes]

Anna!

ANNA: Hmm?Delivery.

But, renting heaters would be worth it

because it would keep people out of the house. Right?

Now, how much setup time do you need?

And you guys oversee everything, right?

'Cause I'd rather not have to do anything.

Mrs. Eve?

I-I didn't mean to scare you.

Oh, sorry, I was just-- in another world, there.

Good night. Thank you for everything.

We'll see you tomorrow.

Can-can I ask... eh, you a question?

Yes, sure. Is everything okay?

Yes. Yes.

Well, my grandson, we want him to go to the charter school.

Matheson Charter?Yes.

But my daughter does not live in that district.

Wait... You have a grandson?

How did I not know this?

Look at him.

He's adorable.

Daniel.

Well, how can I help Daniel?

Well...

Can we use your address

as his home address?

You do live in the school district.

I don't want you to get in any trouble, Mrs. Eve.

Daniel was born here. He's legal.

I will work your party or anything for free.

I would owe you so much.

You don't owe me anything.

Of course you can use our address.

You're part of our family, Anna.

Daniel should go to any school he wants.

It was an absolute nightmare.

They just walked in through the front door, guns out,

"You cannot walk into my house and do this."

You said that?Of course I did.

Anna's part of our family.

So brave.

It's so awful.

I'm so sorry, Eve.

I gotta say though,

these people know the risks when they come here.

What can you do?

I mean, it's unfortunate and everything,

but it is illegal, right?

Gretchen.You know what I mean.

So what happens now?

I don't know.

We have no idea where they took Anna.

Bill hired an attorney and they can't find her.

Her family hasn't heard either.

I just... I can't believe this is happening to her.

GRETCHEN: The thing is, too, is that

the next person you find is just going to have the same problems.

STACEY: Right? [chuckles]

Lucy came to us and wanted health insurance.

And we're like, "Do you watch the news?"

Legal Americans can't get health insurance.

I know. Lete wanted to pay taxes.

I said, "If you want to be a real American,

you try to get out of paying taxes."Right?

CONSTANCE: They just don't know how things like that are not helping them.

GRETCHEN: Mm.

My credit cards were declined.

Oh.

Oh, well, that...

[chuckles] that must be it.

It has to be identity theft.

Someone hacked your credit cards,

and now these...

people think that you're a, uh...

a terrorist.

William...

I told Anna she could use our address

so she could get her grandson into Matheson Charter School.

Could that be the reason

why we're here?

Maybe Anna's kids are into something

we don't know about.Well, I-I...

I have to think this is just a bizarre misunderstanding.

At some point, we're gonna talk to someone

who will tell us the deal, and we can explain ourselves,

and, um... we're gonna go home.

Okay? And then

it'll just be a great story for Gretchen and Stacey.

Hey.

Where are our children?

[sighs]: Ah... Martin.

Well, there it is.

Mr. Martin, finance manager,

and, Mrs. Martin, you are a stay-at-home mom.

Can you tell us why we're being detained?

Yes. Uh, you've been married six years,

and your daughters are eight years old?

Do we need an attorney?

This isn't really a... an attorney thing.

This is America.

[chuckles softly]

Okay, I'm just... I'm just curious.

Does this have anything to do with...

[whispers]: Matheson Charter School?

You tell me.

No.

No, no, no. You brought her in here. Okay.

I told our housekeeper, Anna Fuentes,

she could use our address

so her grandson could go to Matheson Charter.

I did it. So...

whatever we need to do to make things right,

we'll do it.

A donation to Matheson

or...

wherever...

we'll do that.

Are you suggesting a financial inducement

to your release?

Uh...

That is a shame, because...

[chuckles] this has nothing to do

with Mrs. Fuentes at all.

Well, what does it have to do with?

We have a right to know why we're here.

[lock buzzes]That's best not to discuss

in front of the children.

Mom!Hey!

WILLIAM: Hey, come on, come on.

[whispers]: Okay?

I owe you an apology.

That is the problem with government these days.

Inefficiency. The inefficiency is astounding.

There really was no reason to drag all of you down here today.

[chuckles]: Forget it. I'm just saying, forget it.

No harm, no foul.We'll just show ourselves out the door.

Just how-how exactly do we get out of here?

No, no, no, no, I'm sorry, you misunderstand.

you, Jackie and Isabelle

will be released momentarily.

Eve will remain with us

a bit longer

Five years ago, this dimension in which you and I exist

was infiltrated by one of our neighboring dimensions.

[alarm blares]During that initial exchange,

we learned that this was not, indeed,

the first time contact had been made

between these two dimensions.

That 30 years ago, a caravan from that dimension

had crossed over into ours.

These pilgrims risked everything

in the hopes of finding a better dimension.

A better future.

A dimension where

the sky was blue.

Now...

we learned that this other dimension

was a lesser dimension.

That these pilgrims

were diluting the natural evolution

of our lives as we know it.

And what if I told you that the apparatus

you find yourself in can be used

to record a pilgrim's biometric response to a range

of stimuli from that neighboring dimension?

That it is the only truly accurate way
