Search Party

Come on.

Pick up, pick up, pick up, pick up, pick up.

Hey, guys, this is Portia.

I'm probably on set, 'cause I'm a working actor.

Please leave me a message.

Hey, Portia. Uh, this is Drew Gardner.

Look, Dory didn't come home last night,

and I'm not sure where she's at.

If you know where she is or anything of that nature,

please just give me a call back.

Elliott Goss.

You're probably still asleep or something --

I'm starting to get really worried.

Please call me when you wake up.

Hello, who is this?

Uh, hi. Um, this is Drew Gardner.

Is Dory there with you?

D-Dory, quick. Put on your clothes.

Your boyfriend is catching on to us.

Hey, is she there? Is this for real?

Dude, calm down.

Uh, I don't mean to put this on you or anything like that,

but Dory didn't come home last night,

and I don't know where she is, and I just, um, I feel like

she's fully missing and I'm kind of freaking out.

Yeah, I'm sure she's fine.

She's not fine, Julian.

I'm telling you she's not fine. -Whoa, whoa.

All I'm saying is if a girl doesn't come home,

she spent the night somewhere.

Um...

Wait, you think that she's cheating on me?

You think she's cheating on you.

That's why you called me.

You ignorant bitch. You let me die?

Lorraine. No.

I didn't mean to.

I'm dead, Dory. Dead. Okay?

And you know I didn't jump in front of that train.

You know that they pushed me.

Chantal!

Oh, Dory. Why didn't you save Lorraine?

Now we're all gonna die.

You know that they're gonna push you, too.

You know they're gonna kill you.

Who? Who's gonna kill me?

Who?! Who?!!

Hey, sleepyhead.

H-how long have I been out?

Uh, since, like, tape 3 of about 5,000.

Look at this. What is that?

I don't even know how to Google this crap.

I can't believe you saw Chantal at this shit hole.

I wish you would have woken me up.

Yeah, I figured you needed the shuteye.

-What time is it? -It's late.

Oh, shit. Shit, shit, shit.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. -What's the matter?

Shit.

Uh, I-I just have to go.

-What? -I have to go.

No, you don't have to go.

Yes, I do. I have to.

Wait a sec. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

Hey, hey. -Yeah.

I want to tell you something here.

Now, I know we're looking for Chantal,

and we're gonna find her,

but I'm also very, very, very happy that I found you.

-Huh? -Yeah.

I just got to get my bag.

Yeah, great.

Agnes Cho.

What?

It's Agnes fucking Cho.

So I need some advice really quick.

I accidentally passed out at Keith's last night

and woke up to, like, 5,000 texts from Drew.

But Drew hasn't been texting you, right?

He, uh, he called. I was asleep.

Okay, so I was thinking of writing like,

"Hey, sorry I didn't call last night.

Lorraine died."

No, no, no, no, no. Don't apologize.

Okay, say you were with me and, um, okay.

You know how you can spend the night

at the Natural History Museum?

Say you were at one of those sleepovers

and your phone died. Easy, boom.

What do I tell him when he asks

why I didn't tell him something earlier about it?

Just say you did tell him and he wasn't listening.

Will that work? It's so obviously a lie.

Dory, if you believe it, he'll believe it.

Dory, Jesus.

What the...? What, you're not missing?

What? Why would I be missing?

Okay. I'm sorry.

Where have you been all night?

At the museum with Elliott.

What are you talking about, Dory?

Drew, I told you.

I was gonna spend the night

at the Natural History Museum with Elliott.

You did?

Yeah.

You really -- you don't remember?

No. I don't remember that. No.

I told you at dinner the other night.

God, I guess you just weren't listening.

I guess, yeah.

I guess I wasn't listening.

Wait, Dory, why didn't you answer any of my texts?

Oh, my phone. It just died.

Oh, your phone -- your phone died.

Jesus, Dory. I was so worried about you.

Okay, I was freaking out.

I called everybody we know.

What if something happened to you?

I didn't know.

Well, nothing did. Look, I'm okay.

Why didn't you just call me?

I'm sorry. My phone died, okay? Okay.

But look, I just -- I was where I said I'd be, right?

Yeah.

Hey, where's your sleeping bag?

What?

I mean, so you went to the museum.

I mean, wouldn't you bring a sleeping bag?

Oh, no.

We just kind of, like, curled up, you know?

It was kind of uncomfortable, actually, but...

Okay, why would you do that?

I mean, we have sleeping bags here.

Why wouldn't you use one of those?

Do you want to go to the zoo with me?

What?!

I think Agnes Cho knows something about Chantal,

so I'm gonna go over there and ask her some questions.

Dory, no!

I would -- I thought you were done with this stuff!

Okay, I don't understand.

Why don't I know anything

that's happening around here anymore?

I know you asked me to stop,

and I said I would, but I can't.

I'm too close to finding her, Drew.

So I'm gonna go to the zoo.

And I really hope you'll come with me.

I'm not gonna let you go to the zoo alone,

so I'm gonna go. -Great.

But, hey, I'm not in a good mood.

I'd really like that.

Hey, Dor?

I'm really glad you're not missing.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I have you on tape, Agnes.

It wasn't me.

Hey, do you mind if I feed the little guy something,

like a banana or something?

-No! -Okay, yeah.

Agnes, Chantal is in danger.

Do you understand? Her life is in danger.

$5,000.

What are you talking about?

I'll tell you where Chantal is if you give me $5,000.

-Whoa. -It's not for me!

It's for these magnificent creatures,

some of whom will die

unless they receive pricey medicines

and acupuncture treatments

that the stupid zoo board won't authorize.

Right. Of course.

I mean, that's so sad, Agnes.

That is so sad. It is, but, I mean, $5,000?

You know what I -- I mean, c-could you just --

could you just tell me?

Please? Just tell me.

If you're as serious about this as you say you are,

you'll cooperate.

Fine.

Drew: Dory, where are we gonna get $5,000?

I don't know, but I'm not letting

some basic bitch slow me down.

You guys know how I'm, like, a really good friend.

-You're a great friend. -You are.

Um, you know, I mean, Portia, how many times have I had

to, you know, FedEx your birth control?

Remember that one time in Tulum?

Oh, my God. Yes.

Ugh, concierge would not pull out.

Right. And Elliott, you know,

it's been a hard week and I haven't left your side, right?

Yeah.

Even after, you know, we discovered

that you'd been bold-faced lying to us for years

about overcoming a terminal illness that you never had.

-For sure, yeah. -Mm.

So I need your guys' help.

-Of course! -Absolutely, Dory.
