[Lena] Isn't she...

Isn't mother always right?

[stage knife clicks]

Do you want this role?

-Too much? -[Dory] "Too much?"

The fact that you don't know, that concerns me.

You're the actor. You're supposed to know.

[sighs]

Have they confirmed the table-read yet?

I'm waiting for a call.

So, it could still fall through?

[Dory] Lena,

are you sleeping?

[sighs]

I'm fine.

No, you're not fine.

It's been a decade since you had a real role.

[Lena] That's my fault?

You were the one who gave me those auditions.

Those were the only auditions I could get you.

I want the old Lena back.

This is about your life.

[Dory] The life you were supposed to have

before all that mess happened.

This is Bogdanovich.

This is the role that changes everything.

Do you get that?

[gasps]

I want you to call Dr. Hecht.

[Lena] No, no, no. We've been all through this.

-I don't need any help. -[Dory] I do.

I'll always be your friend, Lena.

But if you wanna keep me as your agent,

you'll call him.

[sighs]

Are you serious?

Listen. If you're not gonna try, why should I?

The reading is in four weeks. Don't blow it.

[retreating footsteps]

[utensils clinking]

It's my birthday.

Did you say something?

Your hearing aid.

I said it's my birthday.

We don't celebrate birthdays, Tess.

It's against the rules.

-But you said you'd tell me. -Tell you what?

You know what.

And you know what you have to do

in order to get that information.

[sighs]

Please stop.

Today is my birthday.

And you promised you'd tell me.

[inhales sharply]

What do you want me to tell you, Tess?

[Ken] That you were left for dead

because nobody wanted you?

That's not true.

No one cared for you except for me and mother.

What else do you need to know?

I wanna know who my real mother is!

[Ken] You know where to go to find that answer.

And you know what you need to do to get the combination.

You are a big girl now.

Maybe you're ready to learn how the real world works.

What are you doing?

[Ken] Don't worry.

We're not really brother and sister.

[Tess] No, Ken.

-[Ken] It's okay, Tess. -[Tess] No.

[Tess] No, no, Ken.

No, stop, stop, stop.

Get out! Ow!

No, Ken, please.

Ken, stop. Stop!

[Marc breathes deeply]

[cell phone rings]

Oh, hey, Dory.

[Dory] Confirmed.

You'll be reading with Bogdanovich himself.

Oh, my god.

[Dory] Do you know who Gia Fontaine is?

Sure.

[Dory] I'm sending her to your class.

Run your sides with her.

She has some real credits. And her dad's worth knowing.

Okay.

Hey, Dory.

Thanks. Thanks a lot.

-I mean it. -[Dory] Sure.

[sighs]

[overlapping dialogue]

[Lena] Everybody, I wanna introduce you

to a special guest we have today.

Please welcome her, Gia Fontaine.

[applause]

[clears throat] Right.

The "not-so-cute" meet between mother and daughter.

Is it okay if I improvise?

-Do you know the scene? -I can already feel it.

But if you don't know what to feel...

Don't worry, I'm Method.

Oh.

Got it.

[Lena] She's not as good as she thinks she is.

You're jealous.

[scoffs] Don't be a bitch.

I'm an agent.

And right now, you're being upstaged by a newbie.

Thanks.

Get your head in the game.

[indistinct chatter]

The audition Dory mentioned.

I know it's important to her, is it important to you?

Um, yeah.

I mean, I've been...

waiting for a part like this my entire career.

If you can call what I've had a career.

But the nightmares are getting worse.

[Dr. Hecht] And it all started when your baby was stillborn.

Sixteen years ago?

Yeah.

-You wanna tell me about it? -[Lena] What's there to say?

Fetal abruption. The baby died.

[Dr. Hecht] That's very clinical.

What happened to the child?

I'm, I'm sorry I don't know what you mean.

She...

She was stillborn.

Did you donate her body, cremate it, have it buried?

[sighs]

Yeah, the hospital had her buried.

[Dr. Hecht] Where?

I don't know exactly.

You've never been to the grave?

No. And I don't really see why that matters.

I mean...

I thought your job was to make me feel better.

Making you feel better isn't my job, Lena.

[Dr. Hecht] It's yours.

We like causes, Lena.

[Dr. Hecht] That's why we have God and Satan, and...

the Tooth Fairy.

They give us a narrative that help us

make sense out of things that just don't make sense.

It's what your subconscious has done.

It's not rocket science.

[inhales sharply]

It's just guilt.

The more you repress it, the worse it gets.

So, what am I supposed to do? Just...

Let it out and it'll get better?

You'll never get better,

unless you get some closure.

[Dr. Hecht] That will get you by but you were right,

it won't fix you.

[sniffs]

What will?

Find out where your daughter was buried.

Visit her grave.

Cry. Be angry.

Be sad.

I'm sorry for wasting your time, Doctor.

Lena.

Despite what people think,

funerals aren't actually for the dead.

[Dr. Hecht] You know that, right?

Yeah.

You have to let yourself grieve, Lena.

[somber music]

[somber music continues]

Did you find the record number?

I'm so sorry, Ms. O'Neil.

I'm not sure where the mix up happened,

but there are no burial records.

What? What do you mean?

Well, here's the file, but there's nothing in it

besides a specimen record.

Specimen?

They accompany all donations.

[secretary] You must have had her body donated.

No.

I absolutely did not.

Are you sure?

I mean, you said you weren't feeling well.

Postpartum is more than just not feeling well.

I'm sorry. I just...

I need to find her.

Where would she be if she wasn't buried?

The hospital used to have a lab in the basement.

It's being renovated right now,

but a lot of the specimen are still there.

Ma'am, where are you going? Ma'am?

I searched all of the records myself.

I found nothing to corroborate your claim.

I'm sorry.

You're lying, Doctor Ince.

Ms. O'Neil, you need to calm down.

You've had yourself a scare.

I wanna know where her body is.

Your hospital told me that she was buried.

And then she said that you put her in a jar.

I'd say I'm pretty calm considering.

Ms. O'Neil. Is this the first time

you've been in to inquire after her?

How long has it been? Sixteen years?

How dare you.

You will find my daughter's body,

or I will sue you.

[phone rings]

[traffic noise]

[elevator dings]

Yes.

Yes, honey. I know it's late, I'm, I'm on my way, bye.

Christ.

Are you Doctor Ince?

Uh, yes. Can I help you?

-I'm looking for my mother. -[Dr. Ince] Okay.

Does she work here?

[Dr. Ince] What is this?

[Tess] You were the doctor, right?

Is this a joke?

Did she send you?

Who?

Give me a break. I don't have time for this.

-Do you know her name? -[crackling]

Of course, I know her name.

I wasted two hours looking at her records today.

What is it?

[crackling]

I'm calling security.

[suspenseful music]

-[crackling] -[Dr. Ince gasps]

[explodes]

I did that.

[glass shatters]

And that.

What do you want?

I want my mother's name.

Lena.

Lena O'Neil.

Who are you?

I'm the girl you left for dead.

[suspenseful music]

You left me, Doctor.

That's not what doctors are supposed to do.

You left me to die.

But I didn't die.

I suffered.

And now, it's your turn.

[overlapping dialogue]

[Marc] So, um, what did they say?

The whole system completely fused.

Like it was hit by a power surge.

That's it?

We have a witness who claims

she saw the deceased being threatened.

Threatened by who?

Her name is Lena O'Neil, and she threatened to sue him.

Can you describe her for me?

You can Google her. She used to be an actress.

Oh. Lena O'Neil.

[tranquil music]

[door opens]

Hey, there.

Are you here for the class?

-Class? -Yeah, the acting class.

Are you one of my girls from the YWCA program?

Don't be shy. I'm Lena. What's your name, honey?

I'm Tess.

Tess.

Well, that's a very pretty name.

Come on in. I don't bite.

Okay, everybody, pair up. Let's do some scene work.

You guys. You guys, I mean, ladies.

And you too.

And let's see, we have an odd number,

so you don't have a partner.

Uh, let's try something with you,

follow me.

[indistinct chatter]

[Lena] Okay, open your eyes.

So, we'll be doing a scene

from Ford McCallan's The High Road.

Do you know it?

-No. -[Lena] Really?

Okay. Well, the setup is, um...

Go like this.

[Lena] Your dad, who you loved very, very much,

has just died.

And I,

your mother, has come back for the funeral.

Now, you are my daughter,

but, you haven't seen me

since I left...

about ten years ago.

And you're kind of...

acting out a little bit.

Got it?

Go like this.

-[smacks] -[Lena] Oh, you look beautiful.

[Lena] You're such a big girl now.

How long has it been?

How can you not know?

Oh, keep your eyes on me if you can, okay?

Oh.

[Lena] Where were we? Um...

Oh, yeah.

I'm sorry, kid.

I'm not a kid.

I'm 16.

I'm sorry about Daddy.

No, you're not. He, he hated you.

And so do I.

You don't mean that.

I do.

You hurt him.

Honey.

And you hurt me.

I'm not your honey.

Okay? Mommies aren't supposed to hurt their babies.

That's not what mommies do.

I know that now,

but...

I was 19.

Barely older than you are. And...

I wasn't ready to be a mother. I wasn't...

ready to be needed.

What was wrong with me?

Nothing was wrong with you.

Nothing.

Wait, wait, what are you doing?

You were everything to me.

I don't know what was wrong with me. I let you go, and I...

I shouldn't have done that. [sobbing]

I'm so sorry. Please forgive me.

-[Lena] Please, please, please. -Stop, stop, stop!

[Tess] What are you doing?

[applause and cheers]

[applause continues]

Wow.

[Lena] Hey. Great work today, really.

Bye.

Oh, um...

You. [sighs]

Wow, you really helped me today.

[exhales sharply]

I have to go.

Will you come back?

Do you want me to?

You unlocked something in me today.

Something real.

Something that's been buried for a very long time.

I'd love to work on the scenes with you.

You could come to class,

I wouldn't charge you, and then...

Maybe I could help you

with something you're working on.

How does that sound?

I'm not an actress.

Tess?

[Lena] Please, just...

Just think about it.

Ms. O'Neil? Detective Marc Fox, LAPD.

[Marc] You got a minute?

Oh, my god.

I was just at the hospital. We had an argument.

Did you?

Well, it was a misunderstanding.

About what?

I, um...

I was looking for my daughter's body.

[sighs]

I'm sorry for your loss.

It was a long time ago.

I hope I didn't upset you.

No, it's okay. It's just been a...

really emotional day. Uh, is there anything else?

No. That's it.

Thank you for your time, Ms. O'Neil.

Uh...

Ms. O'Neil.

You were really good in Little Big Town.

Oh.

You saw it?

[Lena] That was years ago.

My daughter really liked theater.

Did she grow out of it?

A lot of kids do.

You could say that.

Thank you.

-[thunder rumbling] -[rain patters]

[Lena screaming]

[Lena continues screaming]

Congratulations Lena.

It's a girl.

[eerie music]

[panting]

[sighs]

[exhales sharply]

[tranquil music]

[car horn honking]

[whooshing]

Yes, hello. Um, I'm looking for a cemetery

that did burials for St. Anthony's Hospital?

Late 2000.

Oh.

Well, I don't suppose you have a list of cemeteries that did.

Really? Great. Okay. Let me give you my e-mail.

[doorbell rings]

It's lon@actorsstudio.com.

Right. Thank you, bye.

Oh, hi Tess.

Do you like my shirt?

I got it on Melrose.

I do.

It looks just like the one I wore in Dead By Dawn.

[chuckles] Come on in.

You can have a seat right here. Yeah.

I thought I was supposed to be reading with Lena.

Oh, I'm sure she'll be done in a moment.

Go over. Nudge her.

Hi, Lena. I can't wait to run these lines with you.

Um. Maybe we can do it later.

Later?

Yeah, because right now, I'm gonna run them with Tess.

You're welcome to listen if you want to.

I have to go.

[door closes]

Don't worry about that.

Just look for page five,

and then, you can start the scene.

Don't start, Dory.

You act?

Yeah, she does. She, um...

You do theater. Right?

Oh, theater.

Can I talk to you? Now.

Sorry, I'll be right back.

You snubbed Gia for that?

Jesus, be nice.

Tess and I had a great session yesterday.

I mean, breakthrough level.

She helped me find the truth of that character.

Your reading is in two weeks with Bogdanovich.

You need to start being honest with yourself.

What does that even mean?

That means you just ran lines with an amateur.

And the reason why it felt so good

is because she sucked more than you.

You know, you don't care about the work.

I mean you don't.

You're just like every other Hollywood type.

I'm your agent.

And if you wanna keep me that way,

you're gonna follow me out,

and you're gonna beg Gia to fit you into her schedule.

[door opens]

I'm ready.

For what?

To play the part. Your daughter.

[exhales sharply] Oh. I'm sorry.

Listen, um...

Why don't we do it later?

I think I have to deal with this.

No. You said we would.

And we will. I promise.

You're better than that lady.

[exhales sharply]

No, Tess.

I'm not.

[door opens, closes]

[Dory] No, Dennis, I know you're home.

What you need to do is send Lena a card.

An apology card with a bouquet.

You're welcome.

No, thank you. All right, bye.

But that's...

[electrician] It's a car battery, yeah.

It's not connected to any mains.

So it's like the electricity was forced into it

from somewhere else.

-From where? -[electrician] You tell me.

[Officer Hope] Marc!

Lena O'Neil just arrived. She's down on P1.

Thanks for your help. I'll follow up with you later.

Right.

-[water trickling] -[Lena sobbing]

[exhales sharply] Thank you.

I'm sorry about your agent, Ms. O'Neil.

She was my friend.

Do you know how this happened?

Not actually.

[sniffles]

Can you think of anyone that was mad at her though?

I've seen her argue with hundreds of people.

I'm talking about something more recent.

Somebody she threatened or threatened her?

[Marc] Maybe someone new to the mix?

Well, the last one I saw was, um...

this new girl in my acting class.

What's her name?

[Lena] Tess, but she's harmless.

You have a surname?

Stern, I think.

Tess Stern?

[Lena] Yeah, but it couldn't be her.

She's, uh, barely out of ninth grade.

Anyone else you can think of?

No.

I'm sorry about your friend.

Thank you.

Lena, you have to finish what you started.

For yourself.

[Dr. Hecht] And for Dory.

Finish it, Lena.

[sniffles]

[birds chirping]

-[lock clicks] -[keys jangle]

Oh. We were just about to close, ma'am

Please.

I just need to get this done.

Are you okay?

Yeah. I, I won't take long. I promise.

Well, based on the number you gave me,

the plot should be right around here.

Oh, great.

The plot numbers are sequential,

so if you have the right number you should be able to find it.

Okay, thank you.

[leaves rustling]

[Lena] Damn.

[Marc] Lena.

[Lena] Are you following me?

More like stalking, right?

Is that funny?

We've been tracking you since your agent died.

Today was my turn.

Oh...

I see.

Just out of curiosity, what are you looking for here?

My daughter.

What happened?

I, um...

I fell in love with an actor

that I was working on a movie with.

And I got pregnant.

And he was into it.

Until his next film and his new co-star.

You had an abortion?

[Lena] No. But...

I wanted her.

I mean, I thought I did.

But then the time came and, um...

They told me she was breach.

They suggested that I have a C-section.

But I...

I didn't want the scar.

[Lena inhales sharply]

She had the cord wrapped around her neck.

She never made it out of the birth canal.

That's not your fault.

Sure it is. It's...

It's all my fault. All of it.

[scoffs] So unprofessional.

I guess that's why she never made it.

She did make it.

Haven't you seen any of her films?

B-movie trash.

Well, she has an audition

with Peter Bogdanovich next week.

Peter Bogdanovich is a good friend of my dad's.

I'll make sure to let him know how unreliable she is.

Lena, what numbers have you got in the row back there?

This one's 2530.

And what number are we looking for?

2512.

Because I got 2511 and 2513, but there's no 2512.

Where is she?

[Marc] Lena, take it easy.

You know I got a friend

who locates the heirs to family estates.

We'll find her. I promise.

-[cell phone buzzes] -Oh, shoot!

But I don't wanna take an Uber.

[Gia's mom] Gia, I told you I'm busy.

Hello?

Hello?

[crackling]

-Are you following me? -[Tess] No.

You're following me back to Lena's house to apologize.

Apologize for what?

For being a stuck-up bitch.

Out of my way, Tess.

[Officer Hope] We got another incident.

-541 Bronson. -I'm on my way.

[Lena] There's a lot of blood, but...

None of the scratches are too deep.

I feel safe with you.

Good.

[gasps]

Sorry.

[sniffs]

[gasps] Are you going?

[Lena] No, no, no. I'm not going anywhere.

I'm just gonna clean up the towels, okay?

[water trickling]

What is this?

Don't you know?

Where did you get it!?

[Tess] It's mine.

No, it's not yours.

This is the record number for my daughter.

This is the date she was born.

[Tess] I know.

It was on me when I was taken from the hospital.

What are you talking about?

It says that I was stillborn, but I, I wasn't.

What do you mean weren't?

The doctor made a mistake.

No, no.

He didn't. She, she was dead. I saw her.

[breathing heavily]

The man who took me worked at the morgue.

And he said that I was abandoned.

[Tess] That you had left me at the hospital

and I didn't believe him,

because I knew my real mother would never do that to me.

It isn't possible.

It is.

You can't be her!

I am! That toe tag was on me...

when, when I was born with that date!

I have to be your daughter.

I have to be.

[sniffles]

Okay, honey.

[indistinct chatter on radio]

[police speaking indistinctly]

[Officer Hope] Hey, Marc!

We got a video from the restaurant.

[suspenseful music]

[suspenseful music continues]

Is that the girl we're looking for?

Yeah. That's her.

[eerie music]

[Officer Hope] What the hell?

How did that happen?

[somber music]

[cell phone ringing]

[sniffs]

Hello?

Lena, it's Marc. I think we found something.

[Lena] I know.

The girl that you're looking for,

I know who she is. She's my daughter.

-What did you say? -[Lena] She had a toe tag.

It has her number on it. It has the hospital.

It has the date.

It was on her when she was taken from the morgue.

That's why we couldn't find her, because she's not dead.

Where is she? Is she there?

Yeah. Yeah, she's here with me now.

Listen to me very carefully.

It's Tess.

[Marc] We think she might be involved

-with the death of your age-- -[phone cuts out]

Lena? Lena!

[Lena] That's weird.

[Tess] Who were you talking to?

No one.

[Lena] I'm gonna get your room ready.

[thunder rumbling]

[engine rumbles, stops]

[crickets chirping]

[thunder rumbling]

[doorknob rattling]

[suspenseful music]

[thunder rumbling]

[rustling]

[doorknob rattles]

[clicks]

[clangs]

[Lena] Why don't you rest in here for a while.

And if you need anything, just give me a shout.

I'll be just downstairs.

-Thank you. -[Lena] Sure.

[lock clicks]

[thunder rumbling]

[door closes]

[suspenseful music]

[breathes deeply]

[Lena] Marc?

[Marc] Where is she?

She's upstairs. In the bedroom.

I want you to wait for me outside.

-It's not safe here. -Marc, she's my daughter.

Put that gun down!

Doctor Ince, Dory Rider, Gia Fontaine.

She killed all of them.

She's 16 years old.

You didn't raise her.

I saw the people that did. They created a monster, Lena.

-Oh, no. I don't believe you. -[Marc] Listen to me.

You have no idea what she's capable of.

What does that even mean?

[gasps]

[Marc] She can manipulate electricity.

I saw it with my own eyes.

Anything electric is a weapon to her.

That's how she killed those other people.

And that's how she'll kill you if you don't get out.

[doorknob clicking]

[crackling]

[Marc] Where are the power mains?

[Lena] In the basement at the back of the house.

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna shut them down.

[Tess] Mom? Are you there?

[thunder rumbling]

You're not gonna leave me again, are you?

Gonna stay right here.

He's trying to turn you against me.

I mean, you know that, right?

He's just trying to help.

[suspenseful music]

[clanks]

I don't need help.

I just need you!

I need you too.

-You're lying! -[Lena] I'm not.

[electricity crackling]

I'm not lying.

You're trying to leave me again. And you promised you wouldn't.

-[zapping] -[Marc grunts]

[glass shatters]

[Lena gasps]

What are you doing?

[thunder rumbling]

He was getting in our way, Mother.

-You're not my daughter. -[Tess] Don't say that.

No, you're not.

Stop!

[Tess] There's nowhere to go!

You can't leave me!

Not again!

[suspenseful music]

[suspenseful music continues]

It didn't have to be like this, Mother.

If you had just done what you were supposed to do.

If you had just acted like a mother was supposed to act.

None of this would have happened.

[crackling]

[Tess] You left me to die.

But I didn't.

I suffered.

And now...

It's your turn.

[glass shatters]

[Tess grunts]

-You did this to me! -[Lena grunts]

You did this!

[choking]

[eerie music]

[Lena gasping]

-[glass shatters] -[crackling]

Stop right there!

[choking]

I said stop!

[choking]

[eerie music]

[gunshots]

[tense music]

[Tess grunting]

-[crackles] -[glass shatters]

[gasps]

[panting]

Oh.

[softly] Tess.

[breathing heavily]

[Lena sobbing]

[sobbing]

[Lena crying]

[crying continues]

[birds chirping]

I wish things had been different.

And if she'd grown up with me, maybe they would have been.

But you didn't have a choice.

You know that, right?

[screams]

[screaming continues]

[gasps]

[panting]

[Bogdanovich] And cut! End slate.

[assistant] Scene 575 Take 6.

How was that?

You were terrific, Lena. Terrific.

All right, boys, print that.

Let's go on to the next scene.

Thank you, darling.

[sighs]

[inhales sharply]

[eerie music]
