Midnight, Texas

Previously on "Midnight, Texas."

Bad things keep happening to Bobo

because our family is cursed.

The kind of dark magic that I warned you about.

As long as Bobo loves me, he's gonna die.

It's over.

My dad, he wasn't there when I was a kid.

The last person I let myself rely on was my stepmother.

- You're not turning. - I went to see Kai.

He cured me. I have to go.

It's time for me to leave Midnight.

How you holding up?

Creek and I have been through worse.

I didn't know that you just had a break up.

Oh, it's more of a... a break than a break up.

Well, I just thought because she moved away...

I think you and I should get those drinks.

It's a date.

"Rev, her name is Mary. Please help her."

Okay, Mary. Okay.

Wait, wait, wait. Hold on.

You were driving around the country in that old RV

with your dead grandma inside? Doesn't everyone?

No.

I'm glad we're finally having those drinks.

Ah, I can't thank you enough for cleansing the hotel.

Hmm.

You gotta lick it first. The salt.

- Mmm. - Ah.

You all right?

Oh, I was just thinking how much I needed this.

- The tequila? - A night out.

With someone who is actually interested

in what I had to say.

- Wanna talk about it? - Look, don't get me wrong.

Kai's a good man.

But he's just got a demanding career.

And he's away a lot.

With a bunch of young, impressionable women.

- Lyric and Sequoia. - Yeah, to name a few.

It just makes me wonder what they're doing

when they're away working. Yeah, that's gotta be hard.

Well, no relationship is perfect, huh?

- I'll drink to that. - Yeah, me, too.

Whoo!

You wanna talk about Creek?

Um, there's nothing to talk about, really.

Midnight wasn't for her. Hmm.

But is it for you?

When people like me find a place like this,

we tend to stay.

Well, we're lucky to have you.

Yeah, well...

Um, hey. What's going on?

You need to get to the church now.

- Where's Chuy? - Paris.

Uh, Texas. At "Nail-A-Palooza."

Hey, Fij, we need to talk.

Oh, really, it's not a good time.

Oh. Oh, my God.

What happened?

Well, I... I'm sorry to crash.

I just thought maybe I could help.

Did something attack her?

I believe it happened in childbirth.

Well, maybe her ghost can tell us something.

Nothing.

There's ligature marks on her wrist.

- From what? - Looks like shackles.

What about that burn mark on her arm?

Scars. My guess is a stun gun.

So she was being held captive?

Why come here?

She was looking for the Rev.

Any idea how he knew her?

No, but I can tell you the child's name.

Mary.

What... I'm confused.

What the hell is she?

Hey, sweetie. Can we have a little talk?

Yeah?

She wants to feed. On what?

Meat.

I think we know why that woman was looking for the Rev.

Violent child birth, carnivore...

Growling, accelerated growth...

She's a were-tiger.

You really think it's safe bringing a were-tiger

into our home? She's just a toddler.

She's harmless, at least until the next full moon.

And that's weeks away.

It doesn't freak you out that she grew three years

in three minutes? It stops at 18.

Oh.

What is she doing here?

It takes a village.

Where's the rest of the villagers?

They are trying to track down where the mother came from.

Joe is trying to track down the Rev.

Manfred and Patience are searching the truck.

Least I could do was take the night shift.

Yeah, but that's another thing.

Why did Manfred bring Patience with him?

Why does that bother you?

Uh, for one, her name's Patience.

I don't trust her. Fiji did a spell.

Her intentions are good.

Uh, when did you become so paternal?

We never talked about it before because we never had to.

But in my previous life, I wanted kids.

You ever think about it? Lem, my dad abandoned me.

And my stepmom pimped me out to support her pill addiction.

So, no, I haven't really felt warm and fuzzy about family.

I understand, but having a child

has a way of healing the past.

Yeah.

That is a hard no.

So you dumped the big lug but you didn't tell him

the real reason.

If I told him that it was a family curse,

he wouldn't stop loving me, which means with or without me,

he... he'd be...

A dead man walking.

Exactly.

So this way he'll suffer some heartbreak now.

But he'll still be alive.

Eventually move on.

So much for moving on.

Go home, Bobo.

Not until I get some answers.

One minute we're moving in together,

next minute you're breaking up with me?

It doesn't make any sense.

I told you Aunt Mildred said we're not meant to be together.

That... that is ridiculous.

Hey, if this has something to do with my...

My string of bad luck...

we could figure it out together.

We're soul mates.

Please don't give up on me, Fij.

I'm sorry, Bobo. It's over.

Well, I'm never giving up on you.

Looks like you're gonna need a new plan.

Any chance you have a crowbar?

Uh, yeah.

We've got one in the storage room.

Uh, there's nothing inside her glove box.

Because this isn't her truck.

The ignition's hotwired.

I think she stole it to escape.

Well, a trapped woman will do desperate things.

Think this is Mary's dad?

Well, if it is, maybe he's still out there.

What was this poor woman running from?

Let's go find the bitch.

Come on.

Here. Yeah?

Oh, yeah. That's...

Really... Okay. Whoo!

Look. Yeah.

Your new best friend. Okay.

Oh, Lem.

I'm trying to get some sleep.

Oh.

Well, I'm trying to keep my sanity.

Just try and do your best until sundown.

I won't make it till sundown.

You don't understand.

This place is a pigsty and, I mean,

she's all over the place. And then there's the questions.

She treats me like I'm Siri.

Olivia, She barely knows how to talk.

Not so much.

See, she's been watching cartoons all day,

and apparently she absorbs language as fast as she grows.

Yeah.

Lem?

Lem?

Lem! We're out of meat.

Holy...

Can I change?

It's too small.

And I hate purple.

- Here. - I don't like that.

Well, you can put this on or you can stay in that shirt.

Your choice.

Good choice.

Why am I growing so fast?

Uh, it's complicated.

Why?

- Because. - Because isn't an answer.

Oh, my God.

Olivia, where's my real mom?

Look, kid, I'm not gonna sugar coat this for you.

Your mom's gone.

Which means that you have to grow up.

Fast. Did you have to grow up fast?

Yeah, but for different reasons.

- What reasons? - It doesn't matter.
