[rain falling]

[thunder rumbles]

[child] I've been told I suck at storytelling.

That my stories are all over the place.

But what am I supposed to do? Not tell them?

[bell ringing]

[child] They're my stories.

[children gasping]

[exhales sharply]

Get him!

[breathing heavily]

[inhales sharply] I know you're in there!

Last chance.

[groans]

[sighs]

Toast, Ben.

You are toast.

[grunts]

Leonard?

Where's Ben?

- [students chattering] - [bell rings]

- [parent 1] You have his social? - [receptionist] I do.

- [parent 1] Anything else? - [receptionist] We're all set.

- [parent 1] You have my number. - [receptionist] I do.

- [parent 1] Okay. Thank you. - [receptionist] You're welcome.

- Nice to meet you. - You too.

- Bye. - Have a good day. Bye.

Hey. Hey. Hi. We're all set.

You call me, you text me for anything. You're gonna have the best day.

I love you. Yes. Okay.

Oh, Kenny, can you keep an eye out for this young man? He's new here.

Yeah, um-- I'm Kenny.

Ben.

- Max's... Oh. - Yeah.

Cool, uh, camera.

[Ben] Look, I know how these sorts of things are supposed to go.

Origin stories always kinda feel the same.

Except for mine.

In my case, things always felt so overwhelming.

[students chattering]

- [Kenny] No. He was just being himself. - Just Jason being Jason.

[chuckles] That's funny.

[Ben] There never seem to be simple answers or easy fixes.

I feel like I'm always asking myself, "Is this what I'm supposed to do?"

"Is this who I'm supposed to be?"

"Is this me?"

[parent 1] Ben?

Ben?

How was your first day?

[groans, grunts]

Good.

[parent 1] Good?

It was fine.

How about you, Max? How was your day?

- [Max] Strange. - [parent 2] Strange?

[clicks tongue] Uh, surprising.

[parent 1] I am intrigued.

[parent 2] Did you keep an eye out for Ben like we talked about?

Um, can we play a game?

- [parent 2] A game? You didn't answer. - Yeah. Two truths and a lie.

- [parent 2] Max? - Know how to play?

- It's in the title, isn't it? - [Max] So, yes?

Hang on. I don't know how.

You share three things about yourself, only one of them isn't true.

- It's an ice-breaker. - [parent 1] Great. Let's try.

Yeah. It's a good way to see if someone's telling the truth.

Uh, do you wanna go first?

- I-I'm okay. - [parent 2] All right. Why don't I go?

I was born and raised right here in Boatright.

I thought you were born in New Jersey?

I was.

- That was the lie. - [parents chuckle]

- [parent 1] Sorry, still learning. - [parent 2] Mm-hmm.

- Do you wanna give it a try, Ben? - Why do I have to go next?

Okay. Whatever, I'll go.

Um, let's see.

I used to be best friends with Danielle Cooper

before she decided

every boy in the world was more important than our friendship.

[snorts]

- [Max] Dad, stop. - Sorry.

Number two, we go to Arturos every year for my birthday,

even though I hate it, because my mom loves it.

Uh, and number three,

I was in a big fight at school today and everybody was talking about it.

- Wait! You were in a fight? - [Dad] Hold on.

One of those things is not true.

- [parent 1] Arturos? - No, that's Julia's thing.

The fight.

Yeah. That was the lie.

I mean, there was a fight at school today, it just didn't involve me.

[clock ticking]

[phone chimes]

[sighs]

[door opens]

[sighs]

- What are you doing? - [gasps]

Uh... [sighs] ...I-- I-- I couldn't sleep.

So, I-- Guess I-- I thought that--

I-- I don't know what I thought.

Yeah. Okay. [chuckles] Your story kinda sucks.

[Ben] Why are you up?

I heard your mom's voice through the wall. It's weird.

Weird how?

She's not my mom.

Why didn't you tell her what happened?

Because she's happy. I didn't want to mess that up.

Here. Listen.

["Laura Palmer" playing]

What do you think?

It's fine, I guess.

Okay. Who do you listen to then?

What, you don't have, like, a go-to?

[both sigh]

[clicks tongue]

Look, I get it, okay?

You're in a new house, at a new school, and it's a lot.

[breathes deeply]

I have this, like, rule where, when something big happens...

Boom! I reinvent.

Like, uh, when they got engaged, I went purple,

and then after the wedding, pink.

It may seem small but you gotta figure out what you wanna do, who you wanna be.

[clock ticking]

Who do I wanna be?

[sighs]

- Breakfast! Ben! Max! - [Max] Heard you.

Hey, Max. You don't wanna wait for Ben?

[scoffs]

[door opens, closes]

I didn't realize we were having anyone over.

- Did Ben let you in? - [Dad] Oh.

Why-- Why are you looking at me like that?

[Dad] Wha--

You're friends with Max, yeah?

[Ben as Kenny] Friends?

- How'd you get in the house? - I live here.

Mom?

Ben?

Mom!

- Ben? Where are you? - Mom, I'm right here!

Hey, if this is some kind of joke, it's not funny, okay?

It's-- It's not a joke.

- He's not in his room. - Call his cell.

- [Mom] I'm calling. - [Dad] Hey!

- [phone ringing] - Last chance to come clean.

W-What's wrong with everyone?

I found his phone.

Hey, Ben!

All right. That's it. I'm calling Darren.

Darren, it's Phil. We're having a little bit of an issue...

- What the-- - ...over here with Ben, Liz's kid.

[panting]

[panting]

Oh, no.

[panting continues]

Where's Max? Where's Max?

[students chatter]

Max!

[pants] Max, wait.

Hey. What's up, Kenny?

It's me, Ben, your brother.

Ha-ha, hilarious.

I'm serious. Something happened last night and I woke up like this.

[sighs] Shut up, Kenny.

And you might consider changing out of your pajamas.

Maybe our conversation triggered something.

The whole reinvention thing.

You said I could be whoever I wanted. Here I am.

You expect me to believe that?

- It's the truth. - It's the worst story ever.

It is. But then you said my stories suck last night too.

Please.

Max. I need you to believe me.

- Fine. I believe you, Kenny. - Max, please!

I used to think you were nice, but clearly...

I was wrong.

- [Max sighs] How? How did you-- - I don't know. But do you believe me?

- [bell rings] - [exhales deeply]

You can't go back in there. Not wearing that.

- Not looking like-- - Him?

Yeah.

Wait! Where are you going?

If I don't show up, then my dad gets a call and we both get in trouble.

Just, um, find some place to hide and I'll text you when I can, okay?

[breathes shakily] I don't have my phone.

[sighs] Can I trust you with this?

[sighs]

Here's the passcode. Don't show.

- I promise. - [Max sighs]

- Nice look, Walker. - [child laughs] Yeah.

[breathes deeply]

- [footsteps approaching] - Anything?

No. No, but listen, it's too soon to know anything, okay?

- [inhales sharply] - I know.

- What can I do? - I don't know.

He's not responding. I don't know.

Okay. Maybe Max knows something. [breathes sharply]

[phone chimes]

[sighs] This isn't your phone.

What? She says--

"I'm fine"?

What does that even mean, Max?

Oh, no. [inhales sharply]

You know what? This is ridi-- I'm-- I'm calling her.

[phone ringing]

- [ringing continues] - [slams]

- Why isn't she answering? - I don't know. [sighs]

Okay. You know what? I'm done.

- Honey, wait! - No.

Maybe I should drive.

- Hey, Max. - Hey, Kenny. Hi.

- How's your brother? - Step-- Stepbrother.

Um, he's, uh-- he's not himself today. [chuckles]

[teacher] All right, let's get started here.

[tires screech]

[breathes heavily]

- [Elizabeth] Babe. - [Phil] I'm coming.

- Babe, come on. - I'm coming. I'm coming.

- [Elizabeth] Why isn't she answering? - [Phil] I don't know.

I don't know. Here we go. [breathing heavily]

[Elizabeth] Max!

- Wanna try her phone again? - She's not answering.

- [Phil] Max! - Where is she? Wha--

- Max! - Max!

- Where is he? - I-I-- I don't know.

- [sighs] - Then why did you text us?

[breathes deeply]

Max, is there something you're not telling us?

[door opens]

[police radio chatter]

- Hey. - Hey.

- I'm guessing you didn't find him. - Nothing yet.

- Thanks for coming. - [sighs] No problem.

- Hi. - Hey. [inhales deeply] Uh...

[whispering] I'm sorry.

- You got a photo I can get out? - Yeah, absolutely.

He's here somewhere.

Kiddo, listen, I know we're in new territory here,

- but anytime Liz texts, or I text you... - [officer] Send it to me.

- ...text us. That's all you have to do. - Phil, maybe we head back to your place.

Figure out what he was wearing, where he might be going.

- Okay. - Okay.

- [officer] Send it to me. - I did.

Max! Hey, come on. Let's go.

[stammers] Can't I just go back to class?

What? No, Max. He's family.

Come on.

Typically, we don't consider someone missing for 24 hours.

- So I don't want you to worry. - Not to worry?

Um, wha-- what about his dad?

He's not in the picture.

[thunder rumbling]

[breathing heavily]

[sighs, breathing heavily]

It's gonna rain.

Whoa.

You can't go home looking like him, and we both know you're not Kenny.

[Ben as Kenny] Who are you?

Carter.

Sit.

Out of curiosity, what is it you think is happening?

I don't know what I think. Maybe I made a wish or something.

This wasn't a wish, Ben.

Things are never going back to the way they were.

H-How is that possible?

- Why does it rain? - I don't know.

- Guess. - [Ben as Kenny] I don't know.

It's the accumulation of precipitation.

Okay, great. [scoffs] Clears it all up.

Water, air, all of it builds and builds and builds over time,

and then one day, boom! Rain.

[thunder rumbling]

You're not alone, Ben.

This didn't just happen today.

It's been happening your entire life.

All you've experienced, all you've gone through

has been building up until you reached a breaking point.

It had to get out.

New house, new family, new school and yesterday, the locker room.

- How do you know so much about me? - I was once like you are now,

and I know that it's not easy to be calm when you've found something going on.

You're still young. That's your fault.

There's so much you have to go through.

See? All good.

Do me a favor.

Next time, remind yourself you've done nothing wrong.

You're okay. Things will get better.

Wait, next time?

[thunderclap]

[rumbling continues]

Hey.

In my gut, I knew something wasn't right.

[sighs]

Yesterday, th-the fight at school... [inhales sharply]

Ben.

You were happy and he just didn't wanna mess that up.

[thunderclap]

[groans]

[gasps, breathes deeply]

[breathing heavily]

[Ben] Where am I? [breathing heavily]

[tires screech]

Ben? Ben Vasani?

[music playing on radio]

Been driving around for hours.

You know your folks are worried sick about you, right?

What's with the pajamas?

I saw a kid earlier in the park wearing pajamas, sitting by himself.

By himself?

Yeah. Why?

["Father and Son" continues playing]

[Elizabeth] Ben! Ben!

[Ben] Mom.

[gasps, exhales deeply]

- [Elizabeth] Ben. - Yeah.

I know you wanna know what happened and I don't wanna lie.

- [Elizabeth] Then don't. - At least give us a try, Ben.

Do you have any idea how scared we were?

- I never meant to scare you guys-- - But you did.

Instead of coming to me, you just disappeared.

But that's the thing, I-I didn't just disappear, I--

Guys, isn't it obvious?

He woke up as someone else and we've all had to deal with it.

[Phil] Max, please.

I'm just saying, at least he's not making up some, like, crazy story, right?

That's gotta count for something.

Well-- Well, there's a difference between not lying and being honest.

The fight.

[Elizabeth] And the camera.

I know. We'll fix it.

[sighs]

[Ben] Right, her phone.

- [Ben gasps] - Boo.

Are you gonna make a habit out of scaring me?

[Max] I might.

[inhales sharply] So, how'd you...

Not a clue.

So, I know that, like, sometimes I can come on a little strong...

- It doesn't matter. - Yeah, i-it does.

I'm sorry, were you-- Was that an apology just now?

- No, I think I'm good. [chuckles] Night. - Night.
