BIRDS CHIRPING

I'm heading out today.

Our neighbour Christina runs a place on the island.

She's giving me a tour.

Really?

Yeah, it's a resort-type thing called Genesis.

You know, yoga and meditation, that sort of thing.

FARID: That's really great, Jo.

That's... so great. I'm glad you're doing that.

Calm down. It's just a tour.

SHE GASPS

What?

Nothing.

What?

You seem good today.

SHE SIGHS I like it here.

Yeah?

Thank you.

Christina's invited us over for dinner tonight.

Is that OK?

You can see their house. It's wild.

Yeah, that sounds nice.

Oh.

My aunt's sending me a package.

Just some stuff I left behind at my mom's.

What kind of stuff?

I don't know.

A couple of shirts, a hat, a box of odds and ends.

Just text me when it gets here, yeah?

Ah, I'm thinking of heading out today too.

Where are you going?

Farmer's Market.

Morning. How'd you sleep?

What's this?

Breakfast.

For who?

Hop in.

I thought we were talking.

It's 25 minutes away, there's plenty of time to talk.

FARID: Rather talk here.

PASTOR: You were gonna give me a chance.

Wasn't that the deal?

Come on.

TRUCK DOOR CLOSING

I don't bite.

CHRISTINA: It was a year before I got off my meds,

and I had just returned from shamanic training in Peru,

and I am utterly weightless.

And I found myself staring out at this beautiful desert vista,

surrounded by open-minded, kind people,

with this overflowing desire to befriend my trauma.

And I thought to myself,

everyone should have access to this feeling.

It would change the world.

Is it free?

No, God, no. No!

Neil and I spent a fortune on this place.

He did all the financing.

He owned several nightclubs in Toronto

before he gave up coke and needed a fresh start.

Yeah, we were haemorrhaging money for a while,

and it was hard, but we never gave up.

And now, our investors want us to open a sister site in Baja.

Oh, hello, darling. Hey.

We are helping her with her end-of-life transition.

- Oh. - Yeah.

I thought this was just...

I don't know, like, a wellness retreat.

- It's a centre for healing. - Oh.

See, we use different modalities,

depending on the individual, which basically compresses

years of therapy into several weeks.

And we also pride ourselves on offering

a cutting-edge medical clinic

that provides full blood work and custom treatment plans.

We grow all of our own food on site,

with a strict protocol to cleanse the system of toxins.

The saunas and ice baths are open 24-7 for...

self-guided work, and this...

is the hub.

It's where our team leads more of our...

programmed healing efforts, both group and individual.

HARMONIZED VOCALIZING

Tibetan pulsing.

It's a somatic group therapy

that loosens trauma stored in the body.

Come.

Tatiana, this is Jo.

Jo.

Hello.

PERCUSSIVE ELECTRONIC MUSIC PLAYING

Hi.

Welcome to Genesis.

Thank you.

It's so...

uh... wow.

- Do you like the music? - Mmm.

Our international DJs curate the playlist

in solfeggio frequency - the healing resonance.

Oh.

Everything is designed in a frequency

to regulate the nervous system.

Jo isn't staying with us, but I would really love

for her to partake in some of our treatments.

I'll make you a file.

Thanks.

SCREAMING

Oh, it's primal scream therapy with Diego.

I'll get you in. You'll die... and be reborn.

Um, can I get something to drink?

TATIANA: Of course! Help yourself!

Oh, the tea is micro-dosed.

Highly recommend.

It'll help.

COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYING ON RADIO

Where are we going?

Eagle Ridge. It's a little community

tucked away on the back side of the island.

Addicts mostly, people down on their luck.

What do you do there?

I give them my time.

If they agree to come to church?

They don't have to, but I encourage it.

Getting out of a community of only addicts is...

it's important. I mean, these are kids whose families

gave up on them long ago.

Church is there to show them there's another option,

whenever they're ready to do the work.

What can I say? I'm a sucker for second chances.

Beth Danvers, she's been missing for six months.

That's right.

What can you tell me about her?

I didn't kill her, if that's what you're getting at.

It's a fair guess, I'd say.

There's 12,000 people on this island, Farid.

Wish I could, but I can't know them all.

RADIO: # It might be The music in my head

# I got free reign And you're still not here... #

Hello, Kat.

Breakfast.

Your wife make it or you?

It was all Claudia.

- Give me a hand. - Who's he?

PASTOR: That's Farid.

He's cute.

He's taken.

Taylor!

Taylor! Breakfast!

MAN GROANS

- Pastor C, you don't give up. - Pancakes, man, chocolate chip.

- Not hungry. - Oh, take one.

No, man. I got 40 containers in the fridge.

Time for a new fridge.

Karen!

Who are you?

I'm Farid.

TAYLOR: Farid?

You two meet on Christian Mingle?

He's not my type.

How long's he been doing outreach for?

Outreach?

Sorry, that's not what I...

Yeah, comes by every couple of days. I don't know.

As far as I know, he's always been around.

What's your take on this guy?

TAYLOR: I don't know. Mostly just talks to us.

Actually listens to what we have to say.

Tries to get us clean.

Do you think he can help you?

If I don't OD first.

Hey! Ready to go?

Yeah.

CAR APPROACHING IN DISTANCE

CAR DOOR CLOSING

Jo, I'm back.

CHRISTINA: Uh-uh. Guess.

JO: Three years. - Eight.

I'm basically a cougar.

But it's OK because it's his kink.

It's not my kink. Stop saying that.

I just like mature women, smart women.

His last girlfriend was 50.

- Christina... - Kink.

NEIL: We met at a Touchstone Forum.

- Ah. - What's that?

It's a transformative learning programme...

CHRISTINA: Ugh. - Blue-sky thinking.

Shifting your ability to manifest your best life.

- It's a cult. It's a cult. - It's not a cult.

It's not a cult.

It is a pyramid scheme, though. THEY LAUGH

Yeah. But it gave us Genesis.

Yeah.

Yeah, if we hadn't have taken the workshop,

I would probably still be teaching yoga

and this one would have ended up... I don't know,

dancing shirtless for tips at one of his clubs,

Well, we don't all have Daddy's money.

CHUCKLING

CHRISTINA: So, um, how did you two meet?

Uh, film school, Montreal.

But you make podcasts now.

It's cheaper than movies.

We've listened to your show. It's very dark.

You're an excellent storyteller, Farid.

Thank you. Yeah.

But, uh, the reason it's so successful

is because of the sounds, and that's all thanks to Jo.

She's an incredible Foley artist.

CHRISTINA: Yeah, the sound effects were terrifying.

That's my favourite compliment.

But it got cancelled, yeah?

I thought I saw an article.

Yeah, but that's OK. We could use the break.

CHRISTINA: Hmm. I mean, the market is so saturated,

I imagine it's hard to compete.

Dessert?

Let me help.

No, no, no, it's OK. It's his job.

Thank you for preparing the food, Neil.

It was over the top.

Thank you.

Do you mind?

JO: Uh, no.

Hey, I'm so sorry to hear about your employee.

Uh, Beth?

Thank you.

Yeah, it's been hard.

Who's this?

A woman went missing off the island six months ago.

It was a big deal. They still haven't found her.

She worked at Genesis for how long?

JO: She worked for you?

CHRISTINA: Yeah. - That's horrible.

FARID: Were you close?

We weren't, no.

FARID: How many staff do you have?

That's a strange question.

Is it?

Uh, 13.

FARID: Wow, you must really feel the loss.

Farid finds it hard to leave his podcast hat at home.

- I'm just curious. - It's OK, I don't mind.

JO: We don't want to dredge up anything painful for you two.

It's not painful, it's OK.

- Well, she could be dead. JO: Farid...

- She's not. FARID: How can you be so sure?

Because she's not missing. She's alive and well.

Homemade lavender and bee pollen ice cream.

It's a well-known secret at Genesis.

The last we heard, she was in Toronto,

hiding from her overbearing parents.

We're just happy she's alive and well.

What the fuck?

Her mother thinks she's dead. She's devastated.

How do you know that?

I bumped into her in town.

Look, she should know that her daughter is alive,

so should the police.

Do you think this is a game?

Farid, maybe this isn't our place.

No, it's OK. Why does this upset you so much, Farid?

Aren't you in the business of helping people?

CHRISTINA: We are.

So, do you see how hypocritical you're being?

Are you in the business of helping people?

- In part, yeah. CHRISTINA: Why?

HE SCOFFS

Why do I want to help people?

CHRISTINA: Yes, why? - Because I'm a good person.

- Because you help people? FARID: At least I try.

Just like you helped the Chaffeys?

Cos correct me if I'm wrong,

you make money off of people's stories, yes?

Regardless if you help them or not?

And you don't? Look at this fucking house.

- Farid... - I'm not ashamed of it at all.

I love money. We work hard and we deserve to get paid.

So, $8,000 a week to give cancer patients

carrot juice and false hope? - Farid, shut up.

You're not a better person than us

because you make less money, Farid.

You dig up trauma for notoriety and a chance at another season.

- I'm not doing this. Fuck you. JO: Hey!

We're just having a conversation, Farid.

Thank you, Neil, for a lovely dinner.

Jo, I'd like to go.

- Can we go, please? - She doesn't want to go.

- Excuse me, I'm not talking to you. - Easy, man.

FARID: Come on, Jo.

CHRISTINA: You're making her uncomfortable.

NEIL: Why don't give her some space? - Jo!

Can you just go?

DOOR CLOSES

CHRISTINA: It's OK.

JO: I'm sorry about Farid.

CHRISTINA: Well, no, I think I went a little far.

I'm sorry too.

He's just overwhelmed -

I mean, the podcast and... my illness.

Can I ask you something?

How much of you being sick

is people just convincing you that you are?

I mean putting you on pharmaceuticals

that dim your light and then denying your experience of it?

I don't know. I had an ex that did not want me to get better.

He didn't understand me and that meant he couldn't own me.

Men need to be needed and they need to possess.

Farid saved my life.

It's really sad he's made you believe that.

Have you ever taken mushrooms?

Does this morning's tea count?

Not quite. Nope.

Now, this... is real medicine.

I don't want to go backwards.

You won't.

Hey. You won't.

Can I have some?

Are you sure?

- Mm-hmm. - Yeah.

Good?

- Weird. - Good.

Because we're going swimming.

- Now? - Yes.

I didn't bring my suit.

It's the full moon ceremony, so get ready.

Come on.

Get naked! - OK.

What? She's just a new friend I may be able to help.

What's wrong with that? - NEIL: Christina...

I didn't ask you to get involved. Stop.

NEIL: Is this a do-over? It doesn't work like that.

CHRISTINA: Shh. Please, Neil.
