Ep 230 Script

230

lyr and erka looking up at farrah’s olf apartment.

L: well…there it is.

E: i wont lie, i thought being in Murder territory would be…scarier? more…murder-y?

L: dont worry, im sure it’ll live up to your expectations if we’re caught. hurry up.

(fly to farrah’s apt. balcony. try sliding door)

E: it’s unlocked? maybe the neighbourhood IS safer than we’d thought.

L: shh. doesn’t look like anyone’s home. c’mon.

(enter scra’s old room. sheets rumpled. lyr sees red feather behind pillow, picks it up)

L: does this look…familiar to you?

E: it’s one of that Osprey’s feathers! I’d recognize it anywhere.

L: what, because you couldnt stop staring at him after he saved you that one time?

E: (blush) yes, obviously. but what’s it doing here?

L: Cedoc did always seem like there was more going on with him…behind that vacant, hillbilly expression.

E: hey, he was hot at least.

L: if you say so.

E: there’s a door here.

L: the bathroom,maybe?

(opens, revealing farrah’s lab)

E:...not a bathroom.

L: Looks like some sort of…workshop? whatever it used to be, it’s been cleared out pretty well.

E: ‘cept for this. this was…addressed to someone at The Roost? L.A?

L: Lars Amplo.

E: you think? I’m sure there are others it could be also -

L: he’s the one who led me to the res in the first place. I’d say it’s a pretty strong chance it’s him. Was Farrah in league with him the whole time -

(e opens box with L.A. on. see burner phones and cameras..)

E: oh shi -

L: just - what’s going ON here?

(cyras and tiraa enter the doorway, blocking them in)

C: that’s what we’d like to know, too.

E: w-we were just -

C: trespassing.

L: looking for a friend.

C: Lila…or Farrah?

L: Farrah.

C: (smirks with disdain) if you’re from The Roost, you’re no friend of hers.

(tiraa pokes head around)

T: Esmerlion? Keeler? What the flock are you two doing here?

E: Tiraa?! where’ve you BEEN? The news is saying you ran off from your wedding with a - …Murder…Boss… (steps away from cyras, realising who he is)

C: (lip twitches) I’m not a Boss anymore, don’t worry.

(girls are still wary)

T: (frowns) Why’re you here looking for a Sparrow? Wait - this isn;t the same Sparrow who somehow attended the Roost last year, is it? I heard something happened between you all and that Kestrel, and then the Sparrow went missing?

L: I’m…trying to find her. to…apologise for it all.

C: and that compelled you to enter Murder territory?

L: …i have a lot to make up for. i know it’s reckless, i dont even know if she’s still alive -

C: she was alive, last I saw of her a bit over a month ago. but why would you suspect she wouldnt be…unless you’re aware of what happened to her?

(Lyr looks away, guilty)

C: (lip twitch) you’re the one who sold her out, aren’t you? and now, a year later, the guilt has finally caught up with you. you’re seeking her out to see if she’s alive, so you can put your own conscience to rest.

L: I’m looking for her to apologise -

C: she wouldn’t want it, i can tell you that much. i can also tell you that she’s not here, you should leave before my patience wears out.

L: (looks at box of tech) …i know…who she was making this for. i’m looking for her to apologise…but I’m also looking for them, too.

C: what do you want with the Resistance?

L: i need to get in touch with them. I have information for them.

C: why?

L: …because once the questions start being asked, you can’t ignore the answers.

(cyras looks at tiraa who raises eyebrow)

C: we’re going to meet with them. you can come…but you better hope whatever you have for them is worth their time, or you won’t be leaving their hideout again.

L: i want to be useful to them.

C: they’ll be the judge of that. (picks up box and walks out. see dove watching as they fly off)

reamer pouring over brek’s dad’s research, hair a mess, eyebags.

R: Mother…grandmother…just what have you gotten this family into? (flashback to ky’s dad asking about his dad) …I’ve respected your wishes to not ask about him…but i think now’s the time for answers.
