Surface - Season 1 Edit

A bit.

A few times.

A flash I had.

A glass of water, please.

A guy who spent his whole life drinking, until he drowned.

A hundo says he's let go by the end of the meeting.

A life I thought was pretty damn good.

A little different than your place, huh?

A lot?

A man pushed you from the boat.

A man pushed you from the ferry.

A Peloton? Oh, my God!

Absolutely.

Actually, an essential element of being undercover is not telling anyone.

Actually, it was my idea.

After your accident…

All right, can you go in here?

All right, forget about this shit. End it with her.

All right, listen to me. I get the job's tough.

All right. I'm in a garden, flowers

All right. There. All right.

All suicides gotta get cleared for foul play.

All that other stuff, me, you…

Always so much work at these work parties.

Amex, Chase, everything.

And a calendar full of lunches, but the whole thing feels hollow.

And a lifetime? Please.

And any clinician that tells you otherwise is a hack.

And before that?

And doctors, they all said the same thing.

And even if I did, I never would have discussed it with him.

And everyone around me is walking around as though nothing's changed.

And he had to get rid of the one person who knew what he did.

And I don't know how to come out the other side on this one. And

And I seem to be missing some.

And if she's in danger, she can call 911.

And it seemed like those things meant a lot to you.

And it was a stupid fucking mistake.

And now you're using them against me.

And our marriage?

And our underwriting team also found you have second mortgages taken out

And out you came in a huff.

And so we didn't.

And swore me to secrecy.

And that the past doesn't exist.

And the investigation at the firm, I'm sure that's not helping.

And the water.

And there I was, just standing outside, minding my own business,

And toward the end, you weren't as careful.

And we were strolling down Maiden Lane,

And what does seeing that man mean to you?

And what kind of situation is that?

And what was "us"?

And you are hungover.

And you are?

And you better not fucking leave me hanging.

And you did it in the most intense, deliberate way possible.

And you have no idea how hard it is to get a compliment from her.

And you kept insisting it was something else.

And you know how they run through your medical history and all that?

And you told me you knew a spot where there were better ones.

And you tripped right in front of Chanel.

And you're saying you didn't really know me at all.

And,

And, maybe, if I had been there

And…

And… you know what?

Another way to avoid taking responsibility for your own actions.

Anything that comes back before that moment, you can't trust.

Anything to do with the fact that you were sleeping with his wife?

Anyway, I took you in for the X ray. And then by the time they put the cast on,

Anyway, I wouldn't put too much stock in it.

Anyway, two more days. Love you, Soph.

Apparently something had really pissed you off.

Are you able to tell what's going on inside my head?

Are you following me?

Are you here to ride?

Are you kidding? You nailed it.

Are you okay?

Are you sure you want to do this? 'Cause I'll be just as happy staying here.

Attempted homicide I need you to follow up on.

Babe?

Babe?

Back end of a double. I'm a zombie.

Because I wanted to forget it.

Because it felt like a second chance.

Big chunk of the firm's money went out, and now it's unaccounted for.

Boring, actually. Slow day.

Breathe.

Bringing up more questions than answers.

Burner phone?

But continuing to deny your own agency in this…

But do you remember me?

But don't you think knowing what really happened

But every little bit gets me closer to being whole.

But for the rest of us, it's everywhere.

But how can I move on

But I am gonna need a favor from you though,

But I don't know who that is. What she's like.

But I don't want you to take it the wrong way.

But I guess your phone is just way more interesting.

But I had got caught in the rain,

But I have reason to believe the husband lied about his alibi.

But I know he loves you.

But I know this whole thing has nothing to do with you.

But I never, in a million years, thought

But I thought I could make it right before anyone found out.

But I was just going through all of our travel receipts,

But I'm better now.

But I'm not a victim.

But if it is?

But if it's important to you…

But investments reported don't match our books.

But it's a chance I've got to take.

But not the kind that are gonna blow your fucking cover,

But not you.

But we Hey, look, we can cancel if you want.

But you always took the time to connect with the patients. Hear their stories.

But you just gotta tell me what the fuck is going on.

But you know something.

But, even if you did, I wouldn't have judged you.

But… I'm a fantastic dancer.

By how much?

Call me if you can. I need your help.

Call me if you can. I need your help.

Can I ask you a question now?

Can I ask you something?

Can I bring you a glass of wine?

Can I get you anything?

Can I hear it?

Can I help you?

Can you keep going?

Can't believe you showed.

Caroline, what are you doing here?

Code is… "2448."

Come on, boy. Let's go.

Come on, James.

Come on. I know you're psyched to have the night off.

Come with me.

Coming home for the first time.

Complicated?

Considering I know next to nothing about you.

Costs more than me and you make in a week.

Could be.

Couldn't sleep.

Date of the incident?

Did I come here a lot?

Did I say anything strange?

Did I say I was asking?

Did it?

Did James ask you to check up on me?

Did James think I was having an affair too?

Did she?

Did you get all the of the paperwork I sent over?

Did you just believe the story people have been selling you?

Did you see the shirt I just cut off her?

Didn't feel like you.

Didn't you guys get married here?

Do you know what it feels like to not remember anything?

Do you mind? And then I'm all yours.

Do you really wanna do that?

Do you remember when I told you about the ictus,

Do you still have it?

Do you still think it's necessary?

Do you think it could be helpful?

Do you think that's possible?

Do you think this is possible?

Do you want to speak with her? There's no Officer Baden at this precinct.

Do you?

Don't even worry about it, man. It's all good.

Don't get the blowouts wet kind of friends.

Don't look.

Don't tell James about this, all right?

Don't worry about it.

Dude, you okay?

Ellis.

Embezzlement is serious jail time. I mean, right?

Enjoy.

Everyone's acting like I'm supposed to be happy with a walk in closet

Everywhere he's been for the last six months.

Exactly. That's what I don't understand.

Excuse me?

Excuse me.

Excuse me. Hi, sorry to bother you.

February 11, day before your accident.

February 12th.

Fine.

Fine.

First day back at the hospital. You nervous?

Five.

For me, it's all… a blur.

Forgot to update their paperwork.

From every company we've invested in this year.

From the pier. I didn't answer.

From your other job.

Fuck!

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fucking bored rich people.

Get back on that boat, Sophie.

Get him a water.

Get out of the road.

Get over here. Come on.

Get the full protection of the SFPD at her service.

Gloria. How you doing? When's that surgery?

Go ahead.

Go ahead. I want to help.

Go find a new life without me. This one just isn't mine.

Gonna run a bath.

Good, thanks.

Good.

Good.

Good. I know this sounds crazy, but…

Good. You always did.

Got it.

Gotta go.

GPS records from his car, day of the accident.

GPS records.

Great. There's no drugs involved.

Guy at the front desk.

Had it in the back.

Hannah says I'm making progress,

Hannah thought a change of scenery might be good for me.

Have a drink. Relax.

Have you lost weight?

Have you thought about what I said?

Have you told James how you feel?

Haven't had one of those in a while.

He doesn't even know who you are.

He has cameras everywhere. He's paranoid about something.

He has these… expectations.

He hasn't driven long enough.

He jumped off a boat into the river.

He lied about his alibi, red flag. The rest's just circumstantial.

He might have used his personal Amex.

He needs to tell me, but on his own terms.

He started asking weird questions.

He tends to let things slide off his back.

He walked off just now, but…

He walked off just now, but…

He was loyal and stable and devoted.

He was never in Portland.

He's been drinking too much, staying late at work.

He's just got this way of making everyone trust him.

He's not telling you everything.

Here.

Here. Eat it while it's hot.

Hey, are there stables around here?

Hey, babe.

Hey, buddy. We got that meeting.

Hey, can I get one more?

Hey, hey, look at me. Look at me.

Hey, I I know we haven't spoken in a while.

Hey, I I know we haven't spoken in a while.

Hey, I know the investigator's picking on you.

Hey, I put a little extra in there for your mom's surgery.

Hey, look, you're a pro.

Hey, Soph. What's up?

Hey, what happened to no phones?

Hey, you want me to drop you at the hospital?

Hey, you want to get takeout from that Korean place on Geary tonight?

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey. Bro, what

Hey. I'm proud of you for doing this.

Hey. Let me take that.

Hi, this is James Ellis.

Hi.

Hi.

Hi. Yes, I was just about to call you.

His kids go there. They're cute. You'd like them.

His name is Thomas Baden. May I speak with him, please?

His wife went overboard on a ferry. It was ruled an attempted suicide,

Hold on. Let me check.

Holy shit, Shawn Pareksh is here.

Honestly,

How about a drink? You want some champagne?

How about we just get a drink?

How did one night turn into all this?

How did we even meet?

How long was I in the ICU?

How much trouble could someone be getting in here?

How often did you come?

How was it?

How was the hospital?

How was the neurofeedback?

How you holding up?

However fucked up I might be, I don't want to die.

However painful it may be.

I already poured it.

I am ready now.

I am so glad you decided to come back, Sophie.

I am so sorry to bug you with this,

I am so sorry.

I bet it's one of fucking Todd's clients.

I better get going.

I can tell.

I can't help but wonder if the man you saw

I can't just disappear. We have to do this right.

I can't just leave with you. You don't get it.

I can't say.

I can't spend a week with the same guy, never mind five months.

I can't talk right now.

I can't trust anyone.

I can't, I can't…

I can't.

I couldn't even tell him what happened today.

I did a hypnotherapy session with Hannah yesterday.

I did mention one thing.

I didn't realize how many secrets my marriage was hiding.

I didn't realize the police were involved.

I didn't realize you felt so isolated.

I didn't think you were ready.

I didn't want to spend another night without you.

I don't know how when there are millions of dollars missing.

I don't know what happens after today, after I cross the sea alone.

I don't know, man.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know. Do you?

I don't know. I feel like I'm going crazy.

I don't know. I feel like I'm going crazy.

I don't know. Trying to relax.

I don't really know how to answer that.

I don't think I've ever heard you describe a session as good before.

I don't think so.

I don't think you're going to like what I have to say.

I don't understand why you keep putting yourself through it, is all.

I feel awful saying it, but…

I feel like I've been stuck in a rut lately.

I figured you wouldn't be up for it.

I forget the name, but he said he goes every year.

I found the invitation.

I fuck I fucked up.

I fucked up, man.

I got a call that my wife was in critical condition,

I got a good feeling about this deal.

I got it. I got it.

I guess I just didn't really know how.

I guess that's a hard thing to do,

I guess…

I had a brain injury, and I got put under a fucking conservatorship.

I had the dream again last night.

I had to file for conservatorship.

I hate this place.

I have no idea.

I have to face my fears someday, right?

I have to finish this deal. It shouldn't take more than an hour.

I have you down for this afternoon. 5:00 p.m.

I haven't been anywhere in months.

I jumped, that's it.

I just I lost track of time.

I just I was with James.

I just I was with James.

I just don't feel a connection. That's all.

I just don't think that now is the right time.

I just feel like we're both tired, you know?

I just need some sleep, that's all.

I just want to feel like I belong.

I just wondered…

I know it is,

I know it isn't our usual time, but something came up.

I know it sounds random,

I know it's late. It's been a long day and I just got back to the hotel.

I know you heard me and James on the phone.

I know you're not a cop.

I know.

I know.

I know.

I know.

I know.

I know. I wanted you to know I was there, just in case.

I left you something by the record player. Take a look.

I love it.

I love you.

I mean, being married is nice and all, but the whole thing's a little monotonous.

I mean, I get it.

I mean, I just I thought we were past this.

I mean, I'm always too aggressive, but this guy,

I mean, is it is it working?

I mean, it's such a silly story really.

I mean, lawyers have to get involved. The whole thing, it's

I mean, some start up run by a 25 year old living on Mountain Dew

I mean, that must be really scary.

I mean, you haven't spent a night away from home since the accident.

I mean, you know, we move so much capital in and out.

I must've said something.

I need another drink.

I need to talk to you about something.

I need you to know something.

I never forgot that. It's my daughter's name.

I paid, like, $1,600 for this box.

I ran a red light trying to get back to you.

I really don't want to bother James with this.

I really need that job. I make good tips over there.

I rode a horse.

I said that?

I said the drinks in there looked pretty good,

I saw Hannah today.

I saw him.

I saw the texts between us.

I saw you leave the gallery.

I saw you, camping outside my house. Following me.

I second guess every decision I make

I should go.

I spent that first night holding your hand.

I talked to her today.

I think I just found what I was looking for.

I think I might have done it before.

I think I'll stroll. It's such a nice day.

I think it took me a year or two before you really gave me the time of day.

I think it was a conference?

I think it was four or five months ago.

I think it's hard to take responsibility for a decision you don't remember making.

I thought about what you said, looking inward.

I thought I might do a girls' trip with Caroline.

I thought we agreed to put that behind us.

I thought you'd be bored, so I brought booze.

I told you to leave me alone.

I tried to buy something online today, actually.

I understand if James is stressed.

I wait at the same light,

I wanna tell you something

I want to thank you all for everything you do. All of you…

I wanted to take a walk anyway.

I was a bit out of sorts.

I was at this doctor's appointment the other day

I was expecting a phone call from you guys.

I was halfway there when they called and said you'd woken up.

I was just praying that I would make it back home before you died

I was locked out of the accounts.

I was revisiting the trauma.

I was riding a horse.

I was talking about the movie, obviously.

I was trying to do the right thing.

I was wondering if I could speak with an officer who was assigned

I was younger. A teenager, maybe.

I was your friend.

I was… just doing some work.

I wasn't. I was at the pizza joint up the block.

I will leave you to it.

I wish James could do that.

I would have gotten the fuck out a long time ago, but

I wouldn't

I'd like to be honest with you, Sophie.

I'd love that.

I'll be fine.

I'll be okay.

I'll call her back later.

I'll call in the order.

I'll get this one. You got the last one.

I'll go check on him. Sorry again.

I'll see you tonight.

I'll send the car to pick you up, okay?

I'll tell you everything I know.

I'm asking you.

I'm calling to follow up on my loan application.

I'm doing everything I can to keep you safe.

I'm fine now.

I'm fine, thanks.

I'm fine.

I'm fine.

I'm glad that you're relaxing.

I'm gonna Wait, I'm gonna grab another drink.

I'm here to help, okay?

I'm James Ellis. You're with Cyprus, right?

I'm just annoyed, you know?

I'm just going to excuse myself.

I'm just gonna find the ladies' room.

I'm just gonna go check on him.

I'm just not used to seeing you in something so daring.

I'm just so happy you're okay.

I'm married.

I'm more relaxed here than I've ever been with him.

I'm not really hungry after all.

I'm not sure I know how to answer that.

I'm not trying to get back to that.

I'm Officer Thomas Baden. I was assigned to your case.

I'm so fucking sorry

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. Do I know you?

I'm sorry. You need the code.

I'm sure you guys want to talk business, anyway.

I'm talking to all the employees. Partners on down.

I'm the case. No one knows about this except me and you.

I'm undercover. Narcotics.

I've been meaning to get some new things

I've been meaning to tell you.

I've been there. I know how welcome distractions can be,

I've got that dinner thing with Caroline.

I've got these two deals hanging over my head.

I've known you too long. Don't do that shit.

I've left out.

I've really been trying hard to do that.

If anything happened.

If he did know, what would he have done about it?

If I could just get back that one moment.

If I had been in your life, then it wouldn't have happened.

If I'm being honest, it's been really difficult lately.

If me jumping out of a cab on the freeway

If my life was so perfect, why did I try to end it?

If this is about what I said to your boss, I was just joking.

If you catch my drift.

Imagine yourself in a garden. Flowers. Birds chirping.

In England?

In my professional opinion, it'll be good for both of you.

In public. At a work party.

In the middle of the street, outta nowhere,

In their estimation, you're too leveraged at this time.

Internal auditing department has found a major discrepancy.

Intuition? About what?

Is it affecting Harrison as well?

Is just a manifestation of your subconscious.

Is she gonna be okay?

Is she?

Is that everything?

Is that not… something we do?

Is that the second bottle or the third?

Is the worst thing that driver's seen in San Francisco,

Is this about the investigation?

Is this the same woman who showed up at the station, asking for you?

Isn't there something else we can try? Some experimental treatment

It all just seemed like a story about someone else.

It could bring the whole company down.

It could help with these panic attacks. I could get you in.

It doesn't matter anymore. It never did, okay?

It doesn't sound like it has anything to do with the case you're working on.

It just makes sense.

It looks like things are going well over there.

It only disempowers you.

It really suits you.

It sounds perfect.

It was a coast guard rescue about five months ago.

It was a suicide attempt.

It was an attempted homicide. She's still in danger.

It was good.

It was probably just late reporting.

It was the shittiest day of my life.

It's a healthy number of zeros we're off here.

It's a little more complicated than that.

It's a mess.

It's a standard procedure in a situation like ours.

It's a two hour flight, James. I'll be okay.

It's a work thing. We should show our faces, right?

It's all mental and physiological,

It's all there. GPS coordinates, dates, times.

It's been a long time.

It's been a tricky transition back to normal life.

It's been five months, James. You can't babysit me forever.

It's dead up here. Go get a coffee. I'll watch the desk.

It's just a lot to process.

It's just right up these stairs.

It's like a shoulder dance.

It's like I've woken up in someone else's life

It's more like a visual representation of activity.

It's natural for details to come back, especially around the trauma.

It's no big deal. No one's ever gonna see it but us.

It's no problem.

It's not always so fucking clear what that is these days.

It's not easy to unravel.

It's okay.

It's on my way.

It's over.

It's personal.

It's probably just Mr. Greene wanting more juice.

It's shitting everywhere.

It's so beautiful.

It's so nice to see you looking so good. A real fresh start.

It's Sophie.

It's the first memory you have.

It's there.

It's usually the person who's closest to the victim that's responsible.

It's weird going to bed without you. I hate it.

It's worth it.

James bought a plane ticket to Portland.

James do something?

James fucking Wiseman is on pace for a triple double.

James was a half a mile from the pier that day.

James, I'm telling you. We have to get our stories straight here.

James. Sophie. You made it.

Jesus, fuck.

Jesus, Sophie. Didn't you see that call light going off?

Jesus.

Jesus.

Julio. Julio. Julio.

Just an overnight thing.

Just be who we are now. But that past is real.

Just breathe.

Just get out of there and call me right away.

Just in case we decide to have a little repeat performance today.

Just leave it.

Just let me make it up to you. Tonight. First round on me.

Just pack up and leave, write him a note?

Just pull over, please.

Just putting the pieces together.

Just some guy wanted directions.

Just the two of us somewhere warm.

Just the two of us.

Lately, I've been having memories.

Leave a message.

Leave me alone.

Left on Fremont Street, yeah? Thanks.

Lennox House. It's a private club.

Let me out.

Let's go.

Let's just be who we are now.

Let's revisit the last time you experienced a trigger.

Let's say you're right.

Let's try this.

Like, you just decided to ride a horse?

Like, you preferred hearing other people's stories.

Listen, I…

Listen, I'm sorry it didn't work out. Have a good night, Mr. Ellis.

Listen, you were saying all kinds of crazy things.

Long night?

Look I've…

Look at me. It's okay.

Look, he's not who you think he is, okay?

Look, I don't have all the answers, and I don't know the full story. So

Look, I just need you to know that this was his idea.

Look, I know you just want to pretend the past didn't happen.

Look, I've seen people do a lot worse for a lot less.

Look, if he starts to suspect something or you get a weird feeling,

Look, it was an honest mistake.

Look, it's not like that, okay?

Look, let's just forget about it and have a drink.

Look, whatever happened,

Love you.

MacKenzie Isen. Brought on to conduct the internal investigation.

Make sure she gets it, all right?

Make the same right turn every single day.

Maybe I just need a change of scenery.

Maybe it is just a story about someone else.

Maybe that's easier for you than for me.

Maybe we should go riding later.

Maybe we should've.

Maybe you don't.

Maybe you have it?

Maybe you need to stop being so afraid of them.

Maybe you resented him?

Maybe you'd be okay.

Maybe you're right.

Maybe, can you send it to me?

Maybe. Can't hurt, right?

Maybe… I was pushed.

Me and James.

Me too.

Meaning, we had secrets?

Medical, financial, or stuff like that.

Members only club. Lennox House.

Memories?

Millions of dollars missing.

Millions.

Miranda.

More than anything.

More than capable.

Mostly by yourself.

Motorcycle.

Move on from this.

My

My life is far from perfect.

My whole life basically takes place in this house or in therapy.

My wife, she was in an accident not so long ago.

Nah. There's nothing here puts him at the scene.

Nearly crashed the car, actually.

Needed your driver's license number.

Neurofeedback therapy isn't going to replace

New ones. Things I haven't seen before.

Next stop, Civic Center. Civic Center is the next stop.

Nice to meet you.

Nice! We're up by three.

No hard proof.

No idea.

No, I

No, I don't. You should ask him.

No, I'm a big girl. I can handle it.

No, it isn't.

No, it was a conference. Yeah, I go every year.

No, it's nothing, really.

No, of course not.

No, there was an opportunity, and I trusted the wrong person.

No, this is good.

No, we think we know, based on what we think happened.

No, you being here is what's gonna get me killed.

No, you called me… that morning.

No, you don't get it. She's been acting weird, James.

No, you're not listening. She's remembering things.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No. I was in Portland, working.

No. That's not what I'm saying. I'm… just saying, you didn't…

No. That's not what I'm saying. Just… every marriage has issues.

Nobody likes you. You're very pretty.

Not exactly gonna run into your friends on this side of town, right?

Not exactly.

Not for a while.

Not if I got to wait around all day for my supply.

Not in Portland.

Not sure what it was.

Not, like, hobbies and shit. More like intuition.

Now close your eyes.

Now that I'm getting out of the house more, you know.

Now that the investigation is focusing on his department,

Now the basics.

Now, take me back.

Of course you were.

Of course, I have no memory of it at all.

Of course.

Of course.

Oh, come on! Are you serious?

Oh, fuck!

Oh, fuck.

Oh, fuck. I'm sorry.

Oh, God. I'm so sorry.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. Sophie, you look great.

Oh, my God. Thank God! Where have you been?

Oh, my God. These nouveau riche types.

Oh, my God. What the fuck's with you lately?

Oh, no. I mean, um

Oh, yeah, I'm serious.

Oh, yeah. And where'd you get those?

Okay, be right back.

Okay, but that doesn't mean that

Okay, bye.

Okay, good.

Okay, great.

Okay, I never thought that James was perfect.
