Paradise

Used to stand here all day,

just hoping for a glimpse of Elvis.

But today, we get to go inside and see how the king lived.

In 1957, a 22-year-old Elvis Presley

gave his parents $100,000

and charged them with finding a farmhouse-like property

with enough space around it to ensure his privacy.

Three months later, Elvis's parents found Graceland.

Welcome to the iconic Jungle Room.

Hey, did you hear the news that a bus full of Elvis impersonators

actually crashed on their way to an Elvis convention?

He'd sometimes spend weeks on end here in the TV room.

Elvis also spent a lot of time in his bedroom upstairs.

But unfortunately, there are still areas of the house

that are off-limits except to family.

So, unless you're Priscilla in disguise...

- You get my Pringles? - Yeah, I got 'em.

Hmm. They change anything on the tour?

They changed the Jungle Room joke.

Here, take 'em with food, please.

Oh.

You. I asked for sour cream and onion.

Yeah, well, I like salt and vinegar.

Guess you do.

Need anything else?

Annie, what was the new joke, huh?

A group of Elvis impersonators crashed.

- Mm-hmm. - They were all shook up.

I'll see you later. Don't forget your pills.

Mom, I'm back.

Mom?

Are you awake?

Mom?

Mom!

She was the first in her family to step foot outside the county,

attending the University of Tennessee, and later, Duke Medical School.

Sadly, her mental health caused her to retreat

from her once-promising path...

Um, just, um...

patient's had a persistent cough since April.

Um, no history of, um, smoking or any lung issues.

Patient's likely, um...

I think I'd... I'd r-recommend

that he, um...

Oh, I see here that the patient is on ACE inhibitors

for hypertension, which can cause a dry cough.

Let's talk to your team about switching meds.

That's right.

Annie, why don't you take the next one?

Okay.

- Hello. - Hi.

Uh, my name is Annie Clay.

I'm a third-year medical student working with Dr. Talcott today.

- Okay. - What seems to be the problem?

Yeah, I have this intense pain in my lower leg,

uh, like a cramp, but much, much worse.

Is this due to any trauma, like a physical injury?

- Do you mind if I... - No. Yeah. Oh.

Um, no, I, uh, uh, was at work,

and, um, I was sitting at my desk, and all of a sudden, it just...

- Yeah. - Um...

Uh, I...

I'm gonna recommend, um...

It... I... w-we should get you tested for deep vein thrombosis.

It's, um, if... you might be at risk

if you're sedentary for long periods of time.

And, um...

we could get you an ultrasound and put you on...

Annie? Annie!

- Someone get a gurney. - Anticoagulants.

Pinch your breath. Lie down.

- I'm okay, I'm okay. - Okay.

Excuse me?

Hello?

Ma'am? Excuse me?

Sorry, but, uh, we not having any more visitors today.

Okay... Okay.

I'm Gayle Edwards. I'm Graceland Security.

You can't park here.

Okay. Okay.

- You okay, kid? - No, I'm not.

No, I, uh...

I just dropped out of medical school.

I have no family and no job,

and I don't know what I'm gonna do, and I don't even know why I'm here.

I just drove here, and I...

I will move my car.

You know what?

The old-ass tour guides here keep droppin' dead.

You know anything about Elvis?

Too much.

Why?

Alright, welcome.

In 1957, Elvis Presley gave his parents $100,000

to find him a farmhouse-like property

with enough space around it to ensure his privacy.

To protect the privacy of his home,

Elvis installed a security wall as well as a two-way mirror

at the top of his stairs so he could see who was in his house.

To this day, the upper levels remain off-limits.

And did you hear about the bus of Elvis impersonators

that actually crashed on its way to an Elvis convention?

No? Well, luckily, no one was injured,

but we did hear they were all shook up.

Alright.

We're not gonna get in trouble?

No, no, nobody knows.

Isn't it beautiful?

Wow.

It's like my Graceland paradise.

You know, I bet we could see parts of the river from here.

- For real? - Mm-hmm. Let me adjust the latitude.

Oh, yep, there. And parts of Arkansas.

Look.

Wow. How'd you get so smart, kid?

Man!

Hi, guys.

You're my favorite, but don't tell any of them.

That's between you and me, okay?

Oh!

Regardless of whose home Graceland actually was,

it's the place that Elvis Presley felt the safest in the world.

Annie!

What is going on? Ev... Why...

- Have you seen the news? - No.

Three hours ago,

what scientists are calling a massive mega caldera,

- or super volcano... - I said we're leaving.

I don't give a fuck about getting a refund.

No, I know. You're right, I'm sorry.

What is that?

Oh, my God! Get away from the edge!

Get away from the edge! Get away from the edge!

I would say we played a fucking role...

America, I know you're aware of the situation we now face...

Gayle, look at me. You need to go across the street

to the visitor center and get everything you can.

Clothing, candles, food that doesn't need to be refrigerated.

- Whatever you can carry. - Okay, are you serious right now?

- Yes! - I mean, where am I supposed

- to put all that? - The basement, the TV room.

- Okay. Okay, okay. Move, move, move! - Go. Go, go, go.

You're not thinking about this correctly.

- It's not a wave... - I'm telling you this

so that you can make decisions based on where you wanna be right now

and who you wanna be with.

This position that I have held, I didn't always want it.

Most certainly didn't always like it.

But it has... it's provided me access

to people all over this country.

And one thing has constantly struck me as true.

That despite all the ugliness in our world...

despite our tendency to focus on the grotesque...

and the conflict, despite all of that...

you... you are inherently decent.

Oh, Jesus!

Okay, I got a shit ton of stuff from the restaurant.

- Can you help me unload the cart? - Take that.

- Uh, okay. - Okay. I'll go get everything.

Ooh.

- Careful, careful. - Ooh, this is killing my back.

Okay. You can do this, Gayle.

Oh!

Ahh!

Oh, shit! Oh, God.

Oh, you guys. I'm so sorry,

but it's not safe here for you anymore.

Go. Go.

Go!

Annie.

Holy shit.

We don't have much time.

If you are in a metropolitan area,

get to a fallout shelter or underground as you can.

Oh, my God, come on.

Gayle!

Gayle!

Ah! Mm!

Ooh. Mm-mm.

How's the... how's the leg this morning?

- Not good. - 'Kay, scale of one to 10,

- how's the pain? - Seventy-four.

Alright, I'll check it.

Let me see.

So, even though I reset the bone, we need to...

Yeah, I'm concerned about the infection.

We need to keep the wound and the stitches clean.

Why are the batteries still not working?

I don't know.

You supposed to be the smart one.

I'm the hot one. Oh!

Breathe. Take a deep breath.

I'm the hot one. You're the smart one.

We should go up on the roof.

- Mm. - See what's happening.

- No, we can't expose ourselves. - No.

I'm pretty sure, had there been a nuclear explosion,

we would've heard it.

Oh!

Bomb?
