ALLAN AVERY BARBIE BOY CAPTAIN_MASSEY CAROLINE CONCIERGE DOCTOR FRANKENSTEIN HOST INFIRMARY JESSA KEN LENORE MAX PASSENGER PATIENT_ONE PATIENT_TWO PIPPA PORTER TRISTAN VALET VANNA VIVA WAITER WALLA WALLA TRISTAN Lotta new faces this year. AVERY That joke was old the first time you told it. CAPTAIN MASSEY Oh, Lordy. Lotta new everything. Wow. TRISTAN In case of an emergency, you can use your implants as a flotation device. AVERY You are both awful. What's happening here is a disease. It's called body dysmorphia. MAX Ah. The patients for plastic surgery week arrive high on pain meds and sea air. MAX What you guys doing? AVERY The captain and Tristan have this cute, little tradition of mocking people victimized by an industry that exploits them and makes them pay for it. And here comes the exploiter in chief. MAX Who's that? TRISTAN Lenore Laurent. Her husband Maury owns the cruise line. They also own a chain of fancy plastic surgery clinics. She books the ship out every year for her elite clients. TRISTAN They get their work done and come aboard to recover. AVERY But her real motive for this whole thing, Ms. Lenore has a huge lady boner for the Captain. TRISTAN Hmm. TRISTAN CAPTAIN MASSEY She does not have a whatever you said, no. That TRISTAN Huge. LENORE Bobby Massey! CAPTAIN MASSEY Oh. She's spotted me. So big smiles all around. Let's go. LENORE My brawny buccaneer. CAPTAIN MASSEY Lenore Laurent. You get younger every year. LENORE Mmm. Oh, you. CAPTAIN MASSEY LENORE Mister, what did you do to yourself? Hmm? Little Juv derm or Restylane? T, huh? CAPTAIN MASSEY Oh. No. I-- CAPTAIN MASSEY No, no, no. Just a little sunlight, sleep and a little sunscreen. How's Maury? LENORE Mmm. LENORE Ugh. Maury. He's great! As long as he's stuffing his face with cold cuts and white bread. Which he's always doing. CAPTAIN MASSEY LENORE Dear heart, remind me of your name again. Why am I thinking Harvey? It's not Harvey. AVERY It is. My name is Harvey. CAPTAIN MASSEY It's Avery. And she is our very talented nurse practitioner. LENORE Avery. That's right. So pretty, your name that is. I hope we're in a better mood this year, hmm? LENORE My patients, they pay beaucoup bucks. And they expect happy, shiny faces, full of joy and accommodation. VALET Ms. Laurent, can I show you to your suite? LENORE I'm off. LENORE I'm gonna bother you later. CAPTAIN MASSEY CAPTAIN MASSEY Okay. Well, I'll look forward to being bothered. LENORE Let's go. CAPTAIN MASSEY Oh, ah, yes. AVERY I can't do this week again. I can not. It's just so anti-everything. Everything. And against everything I believe in. TRISTAN Wait. Wait. Wait. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. MAX Just imagine this time next year, you're taking your boards, on the way to being a doctor. AVERY Thanks, really. But there's a stack of unsorted compression garments down below calling out for me. I can't stay here anymore. MAX MAX It's him. The real Ken doll. TRISTAN The who? MAX The man who has made himself look like Ken. MAX He has a reality show with Barbie and Skipper and Allan. The whole gang. They've devoted their entire lives to looking like these characters. MAX Cap, come on. The real Ken doll. CAPTAIN MASSEY That I know not this real Ken doll. TRISTAN Son, may I ask you a question? And... And please, take it in the spirit in which it's intended. But are you fluid? MAX No. I'm obsessed. You could call me a fan. I... I just think he's very inspiring. TRISTAN Mmm. TRISTAN Malala is inspiring. That is a man dressed as a plastic toy. MAX No, he is the plastic toy. TRISTAN Well, gents, I've officially seen literally everything now. Nothing more could shock me. I bid the adieu. CAROLINE Hello. I need medical attention. Someone help. TRISTAN No. TRISTAN Please, God. TRISTAN No. It can't be. TRISTAN Mother! CAROLINE My Pom Pom! My Tri Tri! I really do need these things drained. CAROLINE Um. May I steal him for a second? Pretty please. CAPTAIN MASSEY Seems that you are the rightful owner so steal away, Miss CAROLINE Von Dreesen. Caroline to you. TRISTAN Okay. CAPTAIN MASSEY / MAX Pom Pom? CAROLINE How lucky am I? My own concierge nurse. TRISTAN Mmm. TRISTAN I don't know what's worse, Mum. The fact that you got a deep plane facelift and didn't tell me, or the fact that you showed up here, unannounced. CAROLINE I was afraid you'd jump ship. How about this room? Hmm? CAROLINE I told the gal at the check-in, "My son Tristan is a nurse on The Odyssey. I haven't seen him in over two years. I have to come to the middle of the ocean just to see my baby." TRISTAN TRISTAN Mmm. CAROLINE She gave me an upgrade. TRISTAN You know just the strings to pull. CAROLINE Mmm. CONCIERGE Ma'am, we have your ice. But did you mean to order this much? VANNA Yes, yes. Bring it in. CONCIERGE There we go. Oh. Thank you very much. MAIN TITLE DOCTOR ODYSSEY WALLA WAITER Good evening, ladies. Will we be having liquids or solids tonight? PATIENT 1 Liquids. WAITER Fabulous. WAITER Good evening. Liquids or solids? LENORE Excuse me. Excuse me. LENORE What the hell do you think you're wearing? There is a dress code, dear. Did you leave your suitcase at the docks? AVERY No. Just every ounce of my ability to give a damn. CAPTAIN MASSEY What's happening? LENORE Well, as you can see, this person is dressed as a gondolier. CAPTAIN MASSEY Avery. Go change. Talk about it later. LENORE And a smile wouldn't kill you. Hmm? LENORE Your little nurse has it out for me. CAPTAIN MASSEY Oh, no. LENORE This reflects on you, Bobby. CAPTAIN MASSEY It's Robert and no and you owe me a dance. Come on. LENORE Oh. Please. Mistress can take a hell of a lot more than that to get to my good graces. CAPTAIN MASSEY I'm sorry. I'll have a talk with her. LENORE Hmm. Talk? I prefer action. CAPTAIN MASSEY Uh. Well Maybe not so much action too soon. What about Maury? I mean, he is your husband and he's my boss. LENORE So am I. I got two words for you, Bobby. No prenup. If Maury and I go down like the Titanic, I get half. LENORE That includes you, this ship, the whole kit and caboodle. CAPTAIN MASSEY Okay. LENORE Mmm. LENORE PATIENT 2 Oh. Sorry. It was bugging me. WALLA MAX Oh, my God. Sorry. KEN Oh. MAX Oh. Hi. Sorry. I was just introduced to a fascinating new bit of medicine in there. KEN Sounds like you wanna talk about it. MAX No, no. I just I'm still processing. KEN I'm Ken. MAX I know. I am a huge fan. I'm Max, the doctor here on The Odyssey. KEN KEN You're not my usual demographic. MAX KEN I have a doctor question for you. I heard you have some special equipment on board. A cryotherapy chamber. MAX Two of them, actually. Do you wanna see? KEN Yeah. MAX Okay. MAX So, here's our little dabble into cryotherapy. His and hers chambers. KEN Oh. Could it be his and his? I dare you. MAX So you got your pectorals done most recently then? KEN Yep. I built them up with exercise. But added a small custom implant to give the perfect shape. They were the final piece. Statue of David is complete. MAX The statue of Ken. KEN Exactly. MAX You know, I watch your TV show, obviously. And I was always fascinated by how you describe yourself as an artist who has just fully put himself into his work. KEN My mom's motto was, "You can be whatever you wanna be." And I took that quite literally, obviously. What about you? KEN What would you be if you could literally be anything? MAX Hmm. When I was a kid I wanted to be a Chesapeake Bay Retriever. KEN There are communities for that. MAX KEN ON-SCREEN TEXT {on watch screen} REPORT TO INFIRMARY MAX Oh, damn. Trouble incoming. Time for you to v monos, Ken. KEN Copy that. KEN Thank you. MAX VANNA This is my fourth boob job. And nothing like this has ever happened before. AVERY Third time wasn't a charm, huh? LENORE MAX What's your treatment regimen? VANNA Antibiotics. I have an ointment for the incision scars. MAX Nothing for the pain? VANNA They gave me some pills but I don't like to put synthetics in my body. LENORE To ingest synthetics. Understandable, dear. VANNA The only thing that really works anyways is ice. MAX Have you been icing frequently? VANNA Oh. All day. I'd walk around with two buckets full, if I could. MAX Okay, well Um. You have frostbite. MAX Can you run a warm bath? We need to break up the ice crystals, make sure there's no more damage to the tissue. MAX I'm gonna prescribe you a CBD balm for the pain. It's all natural. VANNA Will the skin heal? MAX The redness will go down but unfortunately that's second and third degree frostbite, so the damage to the tissue is permanent. And you are going to experience some blistering. MAX Down the line you maybe able to get a skin graft. But for right now we're just gonna do everything we can to keep you comfortable. LENORE Well, can't we do that now? A... A skin graft, that's not that difficult. AVERY Oh. It's not? A skin graft is not too difficult? MAX Nurse. LENORE Hallway. Now. MAX LENORE This attitude of yours ends right now. You work for me, understand? AVERY My duty is to the patients. And as far as I can see, the health care they really need here is mental health care. I do not work for you. LENORE Well, you got that right, sister. Because you're fired. AVERY WALLA ON-SCREEN TEXT {on book} FRANKENSTEIN PIPPA JESSA Pip, your nose collapsed like London effing bridge, you're lucky they were able to fix it. Doctor said any more cocaine-- PIPPA Yeah, I know what he said, Jessa. I was there. And I'm done with it, really. After this trip. JESSA I ain't messing. You don't do the reading, you won't pass the exam. Simple as that. I won't slip you my answers like I did last time. You are not mugging me off. Absolutely not. PIPPA JESSA Pippa. Your nose, it's falling off your face. PIPPA MAX Hey. You're gonna be okay. In my experience, response time is what matters most in cases like this. JESSA Your experience, noses falling off left and right, are they? MAX I have dealt with other avulsions successfully. JESSA How did it even happen? MAX The filler used in Pippa's recent rhinoplasty has an acetone base. Certain substances, in high concentrations can cause the filler-- JESSA High concentrations. Hear that, Pip? PIPPA Oh, piss off of me stop. MAX ...Can cause the filler to dissolve. Then the acetone leaks out. And it starts to eat away at the surrounding tissue which causes the nasal avulsion. The detachment. MAX Now, okay. Now, what I'm about to put on is only temporary. And don't worry, Lenore has already been in contact with a plastic surgeon in Los Angeles who specializes in these kinds of reattachments. PIPPA PIPPA I look like bloody Phantom of the Opera. MAX It was a Broadway cruise a couple seasons ago. It was the best I could do. JESSA Raided the costume bin, did ya? JESSA You look like Lady Gaga. PIPPA So what you do with me nose then, chuck it in the bin? TRISTAN Thought you were fired. AVERY I am. Still have to finish out the cruise, though. TRISTAN This is fixable. You just have to talk to Lenore. AVERY I just can't do that, Tristan. MAX Hey. How's it going? AVERY Sometimes, we can give them the world. Other times, the best we can give them is their nose in a box. TRISTAN This isn't gonna work. MAX Actually, the olfactory system is incredible regenerative. TRISTAN Not the nose. TRISTAN This campaign against you. I'm not letting you go. I talked to the captain. He's gonna talk to Lenore. AVERY I didn't ask you to do that. I don't want this anymore. This cruise life. It's been a long time coming. This is just the final straw. TRISTAN What about your scholarship? What.. You're just... You're just giving up? AVERY I'm moving on. TRISTAN I can't believe you're doing this to me. AVERY To you? I'm not your mom. I'm not your girlfriend. This is what I need. I'm sorry that you have abandonment mommy issues, but please just don't put that on me. MAX No. I'm not touching that. MAX If I was to just lightly touch it, though, I would say that that was a little harsh. AVERY Great. You too. Now everyone hates me. PIPPA I like you. JESSA PIPPA It looks so good. JESSA That looks amazing. PIPPA Yeah. MAX A little redness and swelling, but nothing outside the range of normal post-operative healing. KEN Okay. So, I just have to be extra careful with myself. With as many surgeries as I've had, sepsis can be a real threat. MAX You were smart to come in, absolutely. MAX But, we'll keep an eye on it throughout the week. And honestly, it's nothing I'm too worried about. KEN MAX Sorry. That hurt? KEN It's fine. You know, plenty of people are fascinated by me, but most of them aren't usually this kind. MAX I don't think I've ever met anyone as authentically themselves as you. And I think that's very cool. KEN Well, I think you're very cool too, Doctor. I'm serious. You see the people in people. You can't help it. You don't know how actually rare a quality that is. MAX VIVA Good morning. Housekeeping. VIVA TRISTAN Keep doing chest compressions. We're almost there. VIVA MAX D-fib. Now. TRISTAN Yeah. MAX TRISTAN Ready. AVERY He's asystolic. There's no rhythm. We can't shock him. MAX MAX Try again. AVERY Still asystolic. TRISTAN I don't have a pulse. MAX Initiate advanced life support measures. TRISTAN Intubation? AVERY Max. DOCTOR His O2 sat crashed. We need to intubate now. AVERY Max. Max. Max. Max. TRISTAN Stop. AVERY He's gone. MAX TRISTAN Time of death, 08:13. AVERY We need to get him downstairs. TRISTAN Code 4178. We need the laundry cart. AVERY MAX Why can't we just use the stretcher? AVERY This isn't a hospital. We can't just waltz through the leisure deck with a dead body. TRISTAN We owe it to the other passengers to have a non-traumatizing, carefree experience. This is how we do it here, Max. MAX What about him? MAX Surely, we owe him more than a bumpy ride under dirty sheets. AVERY It's just to get him downstairs. To the morgue. MAX MAX PASSENGER WALLA MAX Where are we going? AVERY Flower shop. MAX Why are we going to the flower shop? I thought we were going to the morgue. AVERY Because in the event of death, the flower shop is the morgue. TRISTAN This is the largest, noncritical refrigerated space on the ship. TRISTAN Hey, Sadie. TRISTAN When patients pass unexpectedly, we keep them here until we make port. MAX Is this for real? AVERY Yes. In the event of death, we give some of the flowers to the passengers to make space here. You know, lemonade out of lemons. CAPTAIN MASSEY We're not authorized to do a full autopsy. But I need to know, do we have a contagion on our hands? MAX Necrosis. Advanced erythema beyond the surgical sites suggest spreading inflammation. So, no. I don't think so. AVERY Sepsis? MAX It's what he was concerned about when he came to see me. AVERY You couldn't have known it would advance this quickly. MAX CAPTAIN MASSEY We've constructed a paradise here. But never forget, that's all it is. A construction. An illusion. The world is still the world. And all we can do is sail on. I'll call the authorities and notify the next of kin. AVERY I'll handle the death certificate. AVERY He had minor post-operative swelling. You did what you were supposed to do. MAX I'm supposed to not let my patients die in their sleep. CAROLINE I'm heartbroken. Just sick. That poor, poor boy. WALLA CAROLINE CAROLINE I have a surprise for you. Tomorrow, I get these bandages off. And you and me are doing Seabobs. I signed us up. Do you know what that is?. TRISTAN Yeah. I know what Seabobs are. I know what Seabobs-- CAROLINE It's like a jet ski, but you can dive underwater. TRISTAN I have work, Mum. I'm not here on vacation too. CAROLINE Oh, come on. I wanna do something special for you. TRISTAN Do you know what you're doing? It's the same every time that you show up. This love-bombing. Smothering me with affection and then-- then you just disappear for, God knows, how long. CAROLINE My puppy, my Pom Pom, where's this coming from? TRISTAN Do you know why I was always your puppy? Because I thought it was my fault every time that you left. And I was terrified that if I let you out of my sight for one second, I might never see you again. And that-- that hurt. CAROLINE This is not very nice, Tri Tri. You don't know what it is to be hurt. Because my mother was very unfair. She did not love me. TRISTAN Do you see what you're doing? I'm trying to tell you how I feel, and you're making it about yourself. I have real issues. And they screwed me up. I-It's like I crave affection, and you, you got me addicted to it. CAROLINE You cannot say this stuff to me. TRISTAN God, and I crave it specifically from women who don't want me. Why do you think that is? CAROLINE Stop! I can't-- I cannot hear this. Don't you understand? I am your mother, and you are my baby. If I hurt you, then it hurts me even more. TRISTAN CAROLINE My heart, Tris-- TRISTAN Where are you going? CAROLINE I-I-I can't I-I need air. TRISTAN Okay. Right on time. You can go. I'm very used to it by now. TRISTAN Mum? Mother? MAX Follow my finger. Just with your eyes. CAROLINE Pom Pom, call Don and Dr. Tibanye. They'll know what to do. TRISTAN Yeah. TRISTAN I'm telling you, she's fine. She's just doing this because I finally called her out on her crap. She has to deflect. It's one of her tricks. MAX Maybe. But I am worried about those jerking motions. The chorea-like in her head and hands. TRISTAN Well, she's on metoclopramide for nausea after the surgery. Isn't that one of the side effects? MAX It is, but I'd still like to order an MRI. And we should get her medical records. TRISTAN I'll just call up Don and her doctor. Whoever that is. TRISTAN She writes everything down. She's got the memory of a goldfish. MAX Hold on. MAX Look at that. ON-SCREEN TEXT {on pages} Friday Dec 23 Saturday Dec 23 AVERY It's a different handwriting. MAX Yeah. She's losing fine motor control. AVERY What did you say about your mom's memory? MAX We need to order a gene test. CAROLINE What does the "HTT gene expansion" thing mean? TRISTAN It's only found in... in patients with Huntington's disease. CAROLINE Oh. CAROLINE My grandpa Jimmy, your great-grandfather, died of Huntington's. I-I was only ten, but I'll never forget. It was horrible. There's still no cure? TRISTAN TRISTAN Hmm. TRISTAN But, you know, medicine has come a long way since then. CAROLINE How much time do I have left? The truth. TRISTAN With treatment, you can maybe have another ten good years. Maybe more. TRISTAN Max and I'll conference with your doctor back in Monaco. You know, the three of us together will-- will come up with the next steps. You know, medicines and new advances and-- CAROLINE Okay. CAROLINE Thank you. TRISTAN CAROLINE Is that all? TRISTAN Yeah. CAROLINE I promised you Seabobs, and I'm not abandoning that. Our appointment's in half an hour. TRISTAN Mom, this is, um... This is a big thing to process. So you can just take some time-- CAROLINE I know, I know. CAROLINE I know. It's a lot to process. And I'm sure, eventually, it will hit me, and I'll go through all the appropriate emotions. But, right now, all I know is you were right. CAROLINE I have been absent. I have made mistakes. And if I only have ten years left, I'm gonna spend as much of that time as possible making up for them. CAROLINE Now, get your wet suit. TRISTAN Okay. CAROLINE Oh. AVERY How're you holding up? MAX Well, in the last week I've lost a patient and diagnosed another with a terminal illness. So, I'm a little depressed at the moment. AVERY There are things in this world that you can't prevent. MAX I could've done more. AVERY We always could've done more. MAX AVERY Have you never lost a patient before? MAX Plenty. I've been around death a lot. Just not since AVERY Not since you were the patient. MAX He was there with me, you know? Ken. In the hospital. When I first got put into isolation, everybody was bringing me books and movies, you know, like, great literature, great movies. AVERY MAX But as I found myself staring into the abyss of death, I think I had all the profundity that I needed. What I really wanted was trash. Simple, easy, mindless reality television. AVERY AVERY KEN It's going to be iconic. When I was a kid... plastic surgery. MAX Ken's show was on these midday marathons. So it was Ken and his friends and me. It was him, a woman who played Barbie, a Skipper, and a Malibu Ken. MAX And, I mean, in the beginning I thought it was just trash, but as I kept on watching, I just thought it was really human, you know? This guy who was on a journey to discover himself. KEN KEN MAX And as I was laying there, literally not knowing if I was gonna wake up the next day, I found that the questions at the heart of the show really spoke to me. You know, who am I? What do I want? How would I like to be remembered? ON-SCREEN TEXT {on television screen} I'M GONNA STAY A BOY MAX MAX AVERY / MAX TRISTAN TRISTAN Assistance, please. Guys, I have an unresponsive patient! MAX What's going on? TRISTAN TRISTAN I don't know. I found her seizing. No trauma. MAX Okay, we gotta move her. Let's check her incision sites. Move her on three. One, two, three. TRISTAN AVERY Doesn't look like she's been taking those antibiotics. Damn it! MAX Necrotizing fasciitis. Okay, we gotta move fast. Let's get her on a normal saline bolus. Antibiotics. I need vancomycin, loading dose. Clindamycin, 600 every eight hours. And I need a tissue culture. LENORE What the hell is going on? AVERY Out. You cannot be in here. MAX It's a sterilization issue. Wait in my office, please. I'll be with you in five minutes. Thank you. LENORE MAX Avery, let's get that line in. AVERY Okay. MAX LENORE You have to understand. Vanna is not just a patient, she is my personal shopper. Which to me is a relationship that is closer than family. So I would like to know exactly what is going on. MAX MAX The tissue around the implant has become infected. We have to remove that infection or it could spread. LENORE So this-this tissue re-removing business i-is not going to affect her implants? MAX Well, right now our primary concern is her safety and survival. LENORE I understand. I'm not the Wicked Witch of the West, you know? It's just Her aesthetic is an integral part to who she is. MAX There are many different ways we could attack this. Debridement, vacuum-assisted closure, but I gotta be honest with you, any one of them could affect the implant. AVERY So we don't use any one of them. We use all of them. Precision debridement. One layer of skin at a time. Vacuum-assisted closure to remove anything that's missed. MAX What about postoperative spread? AVERY Targeted cryotherapy. We have the machines. If there's any bacteria that's missed, it'll ensure it doesn't spread. It also stimulates collagen growth, which can keep the scarring to a minimum. Help the skin look better, healthier. MAX The tissue removal would have to be incredibly precise. AVERY I can do it. I can. LENORE I'll go with the second opinion. TRISTAN You're gonna pop it. AVERY Next step, vacuum-assisted closure. WALLA CAROLINE I'm so excited to go to port and do a little shopping. TRISTAN You? Never. CAROLINE TRISTAN Mum, do you maybe wanna come to the beach before lunch? I'm gonna be surfing, but there's a-a bar and stuff. CAROLINE Oh, I want to, Pom Pom. I do. But I also want seagrass rugs for every room in the villa. My new besties know a place here where they are cheap, cheap, cheap. So, text me the location. Hmm? Drop me a pin. I'll see you soon. TRISTAN Um... CAROLINE Hi. WALLA TRISTAN Hi. Uh, table for two. HOST Right this way. TRISTAN Thank you. TRISTAN HOST Excuse me. TRISTAN Um, I'm sorry. She's-She's coming in HOST It's just that, uh, I have this couple that's You're welcome to wait at the bar. TRISTAN Uh, yeah. No... so sorry. MAX This seat taken? HOST Is this who you were waiting for? TRISTAN He'll do. HOST Of course. Enjoy. MAX Thank you. TRISTAN MAX Okay. Let me have it. TRISTAN You know what really sucks? Learning a lesson. And you can't ever go back. You can never unsee the thing you've suddenly seen. No more excuses. MAX What have you suddenly seen? TRISTAN I don't know. Maybe that it was never real. I was never in love with Avery to begin with. I-I was infatuated. It's all just part of this stupid pattern. Over and over with women in positions of authority. TRISTAN She always gets me. Yeah, she comes back, right? She promises that she'll never leave. And I know better than to believe her. I do. But I-I thought it'd be different this time. MAX You know, in my experience people do change. They can. But it's rarely when you expect it or when you want it. Or when you need it. MAX I'm really sorry, Tristan. That sucks. TRISTAN MAX Okay, so while we're being grown-up. And since I think I just heard you give me your inherent blessing. Yes? What do you think? Is it a bad idea? TRISTAN Sleeping with a subordinate? Of course it's wrong. It's 2024. Have you been in one of those cryopods for the last five years? But, also, you know, everything isn't black-and-white. Life is it's weird. People meet at work. MAX People meet at work. TRISTAN Look, I guess if you guys think it's real MAX I mean, how serious can it really be? This time next year, she'll either be fired or studying to be a doctor. And once she's done with that TRISTAN God, you'll be in, like, your mid-to-late 60s. TRISTAN Oh, dude. You just started a battle you cannot win. I went to boarding school, do you know that? MAX TRISTAN Let's get some beers. MAX Yeah. TRISTAN Hi. WALLA PORTER Miss. Miss, you forgot your, um PIPPA God, my nose. You're a lifesaver. I don't think they ship these international. Thank you so much. MAX Hey. Any sign of TRISTAN Mommy Dearest? Nope. Well, word is she left at Mazatl n. Caught a flight, didn't even say goodbye. MAX MAX You okay? TRISTAN No. But I will be. TRISTAN How about you, man? Yeah, Avery told me about your connection with Ken. I'm... I'm sorry I made fun of it. MAX MAX Yeah, it's all very abrupt. I don't know where to put it yet. TRISTAN Well, we're three cruises in. We got a few days off. What do you say we, uh... we go to the hotel, order some room service, binge some Archer? MAX TRISTAN And listen, I know it's not closure MAX But it's as good a place as any to start. MAX Thank you. LENORE So, I hear you're applying for our in-house scholarship. AVERY I heard I was headed for the unemployment office. LENORE Oh. Stop. You're not fired, please. That's just one of those things people say, "You're fired." To be catty. LENORE Listen. Dear, the only reason I am sparing you is what you did for my Vanna. She's the only person on Earth who can eyeball my sizes at Chanel at a hundred paces, so thank you. AVERY You're so welcome. LENORE Oh, and as-a-as far as the, uh, scholarship is concerned, you got my recommendation. Which is worth something. MAX MAX When I was in hospital there were weeks and weeks and weeks where the only human contact that I had was through this little window, waving. MAX So watching Ken on TV, watching the whole gang on TV, you were the closest thing that I had to friends. I used to talk to you guys. You know, like, we were all in the room hanging out together. I know that sounds a little crazy, but BARBIE Not at all. It's what a doll is for. To be a friend when there's no one else. ALLAN Ken was living proof. Nobody's born a hero. We make ourselves into the hero that we need. BARBIE I hate to ask this, but could you show us where he is? In his will we were listed as his next of kin, so we need to receive the body and start funeral arrangements. MAX I'm really sorry I couldn't do more. BARBIE A lot of doctors won't even see patients like us. You saw him. That's enough. BARBIE
