- Hi, I'm Maya.
- And I'm Joyce.
- And we're hosting a watch party for Amazon Prime Video's
new series, "The Wilds".
- And today we'll be watching the pilot episode with you.
- The show is about a group of teenage girls
who get stranded on an island.
- Oh my gosh, I'm so happy that that's not us.
- I know, same.
♪ I am a fading light ♪
- Joyce, I heard that we have a special guest.
- Yes, it's Fatin whose played by Sophia Ali.
Oh my God.
- Welcome to the party.
- Hey guys, excited to be here.
- Sophia, tell us about this show.
- So in this episode that you're about to watch
it's a bunch of girls
who don't know each other getting on a plane,
and then we crash land on an island.
- Sophia, could you tell us where this show was filmed
so we can go there?
- We filmed this show in New Zealand.
We filmed part of it in Piha Beach
and it was so beautiful,
my first time in New Zealand.
I would live there forever.
- Okay, girl, please tell us
about your most favorite moment filming.
- As a cast, we got really close,
just like having these like really smart, empowered women
around you all of the time.
But there was this small island called Waiheke
right off of like the shore of Auckland
and it was a wine island
and there was just all of these wineries all over the place.
And we would take a ferry,
it was just like a 40 minute ferry from Auckland
and just spend the day there and get wine drunk together.
- So we're gonna check in with you
at the end of the episode, but we gotta go.
We gotta go get this party started.
- All right, bye, enjoy.
We'll check in with you after you watched the episode.
- These girls must be stuck on a deserted island,
but we are not.
- So we'll be sharing our reactions on screen,
but you can share your reactions in the comments below.
- So let's finally watch the episode.
- Early this morning, we made contact with your parents.
We'll travel them here as quickly as possible.
And the quarantine order will be lifted soon,
not just for you, but for all the victims,
at which point, you'll be free to see each other.
Just to be clear,
our primary goal is to conduct an investigation.
There's a lot of haze surrounding your circumstances
that we just want to clarify.
And I cannot stress this enough,
but this is just a conversation.
That's all.
- She looks like she's been through some stuff.
- This is my colleague, Agent Young.
He's gonna be running point on this.
He's the investigator in charge, brass tax guy, if you will,
but me, I'm here for you, Leah,
to make sure you feel safe.
As a trauma specialist that is my sole and sacred duty.
You thirsty?
Would you like something to drink?
Let's see, I didn't know what you liked
so we got a grab bag here.
Is anything calling your name?
(dark music)
- Oh, oh, oh. - I used to drink these
all the time. - What was that?
Who was that? - Good, great, that's great.
Don't hesitate to ask for seconds, thirds
or anything at all really.
After all you've been through,
we want you to feel as comfortable as possible.
- What have the others told you?
- Nothing as of yet.
You're the first that's when we brought in.
- So then you don't know what I've been through, do you?
You're just assuming trauma.
You're just assuming it was a living hell.
- Okay Leah, no one is assuming anything.
- Sorry, look, I don't,
I don't mean to say that what happened wasn't traumatic.
Obviously it was traumatic
to end up where we did in the middle of nowhere,
completely cut off from the lives we left behind.
That brings us to the real question, doesn't it?
What was so (bleep) great about the lives we left behind?
Because here's what I remember of all that.
I remember not being enough.
I remember wanting to be more.
I remember the dark moods,
the violent moods,
moods that nobody had any patience for.
And then there was the brutal social scene,
which some girls could just glide through
like they belonged everywhere.
And there you were just trying to belong somewhere.
I remember the ridiculous expectations they had for us,
like we were supposed to be these golden gods 24/7.
(upbeat music)
♪ You have declared your consent ♪
♪ May the Lord fill you both with blessings ♪
- Locked, locked, fuck.
- [Leah] I remember the responsibilities.
Heavy burdens meant for adults forced on us before our time.
Responsibilities that made you think,
yeah, this is definitely (bleep)
with my healthy development right now.
- Poor baby. - Oy.
- [Leah] And don't get me started
on the impossible problem of sex.
If you were terrified of it,
which you had every reason to be,
you'd be deemed a frigid chastity bitch.
But if you were somehow unafraid,
like if it was just naturally your thing,
- Ooh, there's our girl, Joyce.
- Yeah, that's our boo.
- Then God help you,
the world is a dangerous place for a sexually evolved girl.
And on top of all that, there was this new feeling,
this sick, ugly feeling
of wanting to love and to be loved back,
which never ends well.
(crying) (upbeat music)
So if we're talking about what happened out there,
then yeah, there was trauma,
but being a teenage girl in normal ass America,
that was the real living hell.
- Okay, that's a fire scene.
To be a teenage girl in normal ass America,
that was a real living hell.
Period, put that in a book and send it.
- Hello? - A statement.
- Anybody?
(crying)

(ominous music)
- Tell us what you know about the Dawn of Eve.
- [Leah] The retreat was my mother's idea.
She thought it would be like therapeutic.
- Did you have a chance to look through the activities?
You know, they-
- But maybe they were just scared of me.
My dad had started looking at me
like I was radioactive.
- Private plane, honey, direct to the big island.
If that doesn't boost you out of your funk,
I don't know what will.
- Please don't refer to my emotional devastation
as a funk.
- Leah, I know you're recovering from some kind of breakup
and I know you're not wild about this trip,
but your father and I,
we're kind of a loss for how we can help.
- [Father] We're really trying to here, Leah.
(mysterious music)
- Hey, hey.
Are you all right?
Hey, what are you saying?
(Jeanette mumbling)
- Pink, is that your ringtone?
- Pink.
- Hey, hey, hey, stay with me.
- Jeanette, that was her name I found out later.
And she was the only one who'd come alone.
The rest of us came in pairs.
There was Toni and Martha,
best friends from Minnesota,
the Texans, Dot and Shelby.
There was Rachel from New York and her sister Nora,
and Fatin, of all people, from my school.
But like I said,
none of this sunk in until later,
not faces, not names, not the ridiculous welcome video.
- Right now, hundreds of girls just like yourselves
are aboard charters just like this one
are on route to our retreat in Kona, Hawaii
for a long weekend of female-centric learning and growth.
The Dawn of Eve literally waits for no man.
- [Leah] I was somewhere else
trying to disappear into those pages
where it all began.
- Do you know there is a vegan drum circle
on the south lawn?
I mean seriously?
Be a vegan or be someone who does drum circles, not both.
Everyone is just too (bleep) interesting around here.
I've got like interesting fatigue.
- Is that what you hang out with me?
I'm so bland, it gives you a chance to recharge?
I get it.
My hair is all one color.
I'm a virgin that still drinks dairy milk.
Shit, I really am boring.
Actually by being the most norm core person here
you've low key turned the tables.
You've become the freakiest freak of all.
Well, either you or Fatin, the truly basic bitch.
- [Leah] Why does she even go here?
- You seriously don't know?
Fatin is a cello virtuoso.
She's like a shoo-in at Julliard.
You don't have to read that book, you know?
Mrs. Wolf only assigned it
'cause Galanis used to go here.
It's shameless alumni promotion.
God, have you read chapter six yet?
A 12 page description of the wallpaper in a waiting room.
- Yeah, but I,
I think the waiting room was like a metaphor though
for how stuck she felt.
- You can tell him yourself,
he's coming next week,
some kind of school-wide literary event
(dark music)
- So in the interest of bringing us all together,
I'd like to propose a little icebreaker.
- Oh, like never have I ever?
- That game's a little much.
- I know.
So here's how it works.
One person says something they've never done
and if you have done it, you have to drink alcohol.
- That game's a little intense,
like for people who don't know each other real well.
So how about we just pair off,
pow wow with your partner for a sec,
and then afterwards you can introduce her to the rest of us.
- This white girl said pow wow.
- So?
- So it's not her word.
You should be triggered.
- Okay, I'm not though.
- Why am I always fighting your battles for you?
- I don't know because you like fighting.
- Okay, guess I'll have to play matchmaker.
You can come with me.
(groans)
Right about here.
Okay, and it looks like we'll need one little group of three
or you can just sit this one out.
All right, Shelby and you are?
- Martha.
- Martha, it's a pleasure.
Okay so let me tell you a bit about me.
Okay, I do real.
I do family, I do Jesus, I do pageants
and I'm doing this conference to offset the pageants.
Some colleges might see them as retrograde
when it comes to female empowerment.
Has anyone ever told you
you have the most drop dead gorgeous eyes?
- Hey, I've got a question about your shirt.
- I've got a few questions about your cargo pants.
- Yeah well I'm not a lesbian.
Sorry to disappoint. I just like storage.
But I see shirts like yours everywhere,
shirts that have like a lot of attitude.
- So what's your question then?
- I guess just why are they a thing?
- Um because they're super cute and super hilarious.
- I just think it's kind of funny
you wearing that to a feminist retreat
because your shirt is literally telling women
get out of your face.
- Whatever, I don't even get feminism.
I get called a girly girl like it's a bad thing.
So I'm double the amount of girl
and somehow that's not feminist.
It's ridiculous.
Hello.
Oh, thank you so much.
This looks delicious.
- Thanks dude.
- So you play basketball?
- Yeah, I used to.
I cut from the team for unsportsmanlike conduct.
This bitch from the other team kept fouling me
so I pissed in my hand and I threw it at her.
- Were you good?
- Hell yeah, I was a beast on the court.
- People who waste their talent, get on my nerves.
If I missed even one meet
based off of some foolishness on my part
I'd never forgive myself.
- What are you doing?
- I have an app that turns my phone into a digital scale.
- Also, I have two pugs, Coco and Jacks.
They're from the same litter, but they're like so different.
So what kind of music do you listen to?
- I don't really know, everything I guess.
- You know, what's funny?
I always say I'm into rap and hip hop,
but the other day I was going through my Spotify history
and guess who I listened to most?
Pink
It was like a wake-up call for me.
Honestly, we should all be checking our play count.
You can't hide from your play count
and my play count says I like Pink.
(giggles)
- Who do you keep looking at?
- My sister.
- So have you been listening to me at all?
- You're from San Francisco.
You hate being homeschooled.
You work at your family's restaurant.
You collect erasers.
You have two pugs named Coco and Jacks
and you're existentially prepared
to admit that you like Pink.
- No boys aren't really into me.
- At least none that you know of.
- I've got a pretty good lay of the land.
It's just none, period.
- Well, all you need is one good one.
Andrew, uh, he is such a keeper.
For our anniversary, he bought me an actual star
like in the sky and he named it after me.
- Shelby sorry, I think you have cake in your teeth.
- Would you excuse me?
Thanks.
(sad music)
(plane shaking) (alarms beeping)
- It's hard to talk about this part.
- Of course, that must have been terrifying.
- No.
It was embarrassing.
The thought did cross my mind
this could be my final moment alive.
How do you think I spent it?
- Oh no, no, no, no, no, - I didn't reach out
for comfort. - Here it goes.
- [Leah] I didn't cry.
I didn't shut everything out.
I didn't like carpe diem or anything.
I didn't indulge.
I took no measures to protect myself.
I didn't pray for my mortal soul.
Here's what I did.
I sat in my (bleep) love puddle
and thought about a guy.
- The world knows him
as the 2013 National Book Award winner,
but to me you'll only ever be the little (bleep)
who sat at the back of my class making paperclip chains
and ignoring every word I said.
Please welcome Jeffrey Galanis.
- I should say in hindsight
that the paperclip chains that she's referring to
probably had more artistic merit
than anything else I was turning in in her class.
Anyway, I thought that we would start with the reading.
"Carrie's wish was simple,
for something to finally happen to her,
something that would add color
to the bland desert of her life.
And that's what it was. - Hey Ian,
I'm supposed to take Jeff back to his hotel after
but I'm up to my God damn eyeballs in AP prep.
Can you give him a lift?
- Wait like Jeffrey?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- [Ian] I would but my brother-
- I'll do it.
- Oh God, thanks, you're a lifesaver.
- [Jeffrey] "They used to jump rope together
till Angelina tripped doing double dutch
and broke three of her teeth."
(grunting)
- If you were bleeding internally
your heart rate would be shot.
I think you're just a little roughed up.
(mumbling)
(laughing) (gentle music)
- Hey look, we're gonna be okay.
We're gonna be okay.
- All right, help me out with the timeline here.
About how long had you been out there at that point?
- I don't know.
- Two, three hours?
I'm just trying to pin down when the crash occurred.
- I honestly don't know.
- From the crash till when you spotted the shoreline,
you can't give me a ballpark estimate?
- Look I don't mean to be difficult.
- It's just that part at the beginning, it's all blur
and not just for me.
After the plane went down,
we all had this blank in our memories,
even the ones that came to on the island.
- Martha!
Marty!
(throwing up) - Oh no, the chocolate cake.
- Oh and now she throwing it up.
Oh God boy boy.
- Marty!
- You got to get up and move around, all right?
You're in shock.
- They made me come.
I'm not supposed to be here.
- Who, like your parents?
Well, if it makes you feel any better,
they're probably feeling pretty shitty right now
like crushing guilt.
Hey you win.
Well kind of, not really.
(crying) (sad music)
You got a little bit of.
(crying) (sad music)
- Rachel, are you okay?
Is this helping?
Because if it is, I won't stop you.
- You think I'm doing this shit on purpose?
- No.
- Because it couldn't be motion sickness
or the fact that we just woke up
in a (bleep) nightmare, right, Nora?
- I was just asking Rachel.
- No, you weren't.
You were treating me like a child like you always do.
I mean, that's why we're here,
right? - That's not true,
it's not true.
- Yes it is.
You got it in your head that you need to protect me
and now we're here.
When you ran your mouth off to mom and dad,
what did you tell them, Nora?
Nora, what did you-
- Just that I was worried about you
and maybe you needed a break.
- Great, great (bleep) break, right?
(bleep)
- Shelby!
Shelby!
(mysterious music)
(grunting)
My ankle.
Bad, it's bad, isn't it?
- No it just needs a little TLC, okay?
- [Leah] Sometimes you collide with a person
and you get this feeling
that they might become important to you.
Maybe it's from a look or an act of kindness
or maybe you just like the way your world feels
when they're in it.
- I'm really sorry, by the way,
if this is way out of your way.
I would have called an Uber or a Lyft or whatever.
Just I am a person who has chosen not to own a smartphone.
- That's like a whole thing?
- Okay, a few years ago I lost my iPhone
and so I had to revert to this old flip phone
and then I don't know,
I started kind of like the Luddite image
that I was projecting with it so much
that I just kind of stuck with it and you know,
yes, it is admittedly an affectation.
- So do you want to listen to music?
- Yeah, you uh?
- There's an aux cord in the glove compartment.
- Oh shit, CDs.
- Oh God don't, those are really old.
There's no reflection of who I am.
- No, no, no, it's not judgment from me, trust me.
And I'm dying to know what's on Awesome Summer Mix.
- I didn't name that.
- And Pink, oh my God, I love Pink.
Like I feel like she's got like
this amazing anarchic quality to her.
- Yeah, she's kind of eternal.
Your hotel's just right up here.
- Oh, that was fast.
- Hey I don't know if you're hungry, but
if you haven't eaten, we could get some food.
(mysterious music)
(yelling)
- Hey, I see you, I see you.
Hey, hey, hey!
All right, I got her.
- Is there anybody else out there?
Wait, did you see anybody?
- No, I didn't see anybody.
- Martha!
(mysterious music)
Marty!
That's the last time you go swimming.
- I'm okay, I'm fine seriously.
Shelby's been amazing.
- What the (bleep) are you wearing?
- [Rachel] She's not breathing.
She's not breathing.
You're pumping like double time.
- There's no such thing as too fast, only too slow.
- Actually compressions can be too fast
if they're not deep enough.
- Dude, slow down.
- Oh, ease up Dottie, you're going way too fast.
- Okay help.
If you're such experts, somebody else tap in.
- Okay yeah.
- Who knows CPR?
- So it turned out everyone had a working knowledge of CPR?
- That's weird, isn't it?
That every single one of us knew how?
Is that important for you for your purposes or whatever?
- Honestly, it could be.
Anything could be irrelevant at this point.
- Which is why it's crucial
that you give us this full picture account,
of the flight, of the others,
what you were doing on that plane to begin with.
(dark music)
- I feel like I should be asking you about your book.
- No.
- I have to write an essay on it so I'd love your help.
- Okay, let me first ask you what'd you think of it?
- I loved it.
I really did.
But at the end, like it got a little weird,
like it got a little sentimental I think.
I'm really sorry, I didn't need to say that.
- That's okay.
The truth is like sometimes at a certain point
it feels like it's like impossible
to get honest feedback out of anybody
so I appreciate it, thank you.
It's very kind of you.
This is fun.
We should do this again sometime
if that's not like- - With a child?
- Totally unwelcome or whatever
- She's in high school, sir.
- Can you even enter contacts into this thing
or is it just for selling drugs?
- Oh, you're being funny?
Oh sorry, it was a joke.
- I'm gonna let you behind the curtain a little bit.
If a girl really likes someone,
she won't put their name in her phone.
Your crush is like sacred.
You can't just file them in your contacts
between your cousin and your chem lab partner,
that would make him common.
So you learn his number,
every contour of every digit.
You carve those little hieroglyphs on your heart.
So you basically sleep walk the rest of your life
waiting for dispatches from that magic number.
And then there's the pivotal text.
It will probably come around midnight
and it will change everything.
(sad music)
- You're awake.
- Hi.
You made it.
- Yeah, I did.
(dark music)
- I'm sorry.
- You have nothing to be sorry for.
- No, you don't understand.
I'm so sorry.
(dark music)
- Hey, does anyone have a phone?
- Don't you think we would have said something if we did?
- Not even sure how many bars we'd get out here.
- I'm just trying to think of lifelines, all right?
If they're gonna find us, we can't be stupid.
- We should make a big ass help sign
like in that movie "28 Days Later".
- What do you think happened to the flight attendant guy?
- We should be looking through suitcases, finding phones.
We can't just-
- Listen, listen, listen, y'all.
It's the 21st century, okay, they will find us,
but in the meantime, we got to keep track of our resources.
Eight Cokes.
Right now, that's all we got to drink, just eight of these.
Okay, but don't worry
because if God brought us to it,
God will bring us through it.
- You know the whole Jesus saves thing isn't like literally.
He's not gonna jet pack down and pull us out of here.
- No Toni, if the Lord saves those who save themselves,
which is why I'm gonna take a look in the woods,
see if there's some fresh water.
Maybe you should come with.
- Hard pass.
- Shelby, here.
If you're really going, you got to take these.
- You are so generous.
- You know what?
Maybe I will go.
Make sure Christ doesn't lead your ass
into a (bleep) sink hole.
- Guys.
- [Girl] What the hell, Dot?
- I'm sorry.
Look, I was saving her ass okay?
- [Girl] It got real wet.
You honestly think the sand will dry it out?
- I read an article on the internet
about alternatives to rice in a bag.
Sand was mentioned.
- Yeah well good enough for me.
- [Shelby] Keep your ears peeled.
You'll hear moving water before you see it.
- How come you know all this?
- This may surprise you,
but I'm not just some delicate indoor princess.
Okay, I go hunting with my dad all the time.
- So you do one hardcore thing?
That doesn't mean you're not mostly an indoor princess.
How many pillows do you have on your bed?
I bet you've got one of those mega beds
with like 50 pillows.
Your maid, Lupe, she's got to keep taking them off
and putting them back on
and it's making her want to off herself.
Am I right?
You know I'm right.
- Yeah well I've also shot down a 10 point buck,
snapped his neck to finish the job
and butchered him in the field all myself.
God built us to contain multitudes, Toni.
Now turn around 'cause I have to pee.
Plug your ears.
Plug your ears are or I'll have to sing.

- Oh, you've got to be kidding me.
- [Leah] It didn't happen consciously
but I was finally starting to notice the others.
Like Martha, how every creature meant something to her
or Nora, how she always knew you were looking at her
and how her smile could mean a million different things.
The veil of obsession was lifting.
The world I had narrowed down to one
was starting to repopulate.
- There's no one better place to grow into yourself.
What does grow into yourself even mean?
It sounds gross like an ingrown hair.
- I didn't think it'd be so chilly.
- I know.
I'm not sure we're anywhere near Hawaii.
- This is yours, right?
- [Leah] But just like that,
the veil fell again and he was all there was.

- Hi. - Hi.
Can I come in?
- Oh yeah, yeah.
- This is so nice.
- Yeah, it's not bad.
- You have three outlets over there.
- Yeah, I asked for one more and then they said no.

Oh come on.
- I'll do you one better, I'll annotate it for you.
- [Leah] With a nice enough boyfriend,
maybe a bed covered in rose pedals.
- Dear Leah,
- I'm not sure what I imagined before him.
I guess I thought it would be just like the rest of my life
just sort of unremarkable,
maybe at a party or on an old couch
in somebody's damp basement,
lots of condom fumbling and apologies.
If you had told me it would happen the way it did,
I would have told you to get the (bleep) out.
I like watching you do ordinary things.
Makes you seem more real.
You are right?
Like not you, like this is real?
- Are you, you're asking about my feelings or?
Yes.
Oh my God, yes.
- That makes 16.
Why do you think we're only finding diets?
- Anything with real sugar would sink,
sugar being heavier than water.
- How long can the nine of us survive on 16 Cokes?
- Depends on the weather, how hot it gets.
A week and a half maybe.
- You're smart, huh?
- I just read a lot.
- Books, man, can't get into 'em.
- Try having an elite athlete as your sibling.
You do a lot of sitting
on planes, in gyms, in the stands,
reading will happen.
- But like your phone's right there
and TV, TV's, so good.
You know what?
They said like graphic novels
would be like the gateway drug to books.
And like I tried 'em.
Apart from the pictures, they were pretty shit.
Ah shit, I stabbed my (bleep) toe.
(grunting)
Yeah, of course it's hers that would show up.
It was heavy as shit.
(dark music)
- I bet we'll get rich once they find us,
suing for damages or whatever,
not that your ass needs the money.
- Shh, keep listening for water.
- I'm so sick of looking at your (bleep) ponytail.
I feel like it thinks it's better than me.
- Then how 'bout you go in front?
- Fine.
Lord, in your mercy,
grant us water so that we may drink.
Lord, in your mercy-
- Weren't you just telling me to shut up and listen?
- Different.
When you pray, God opens her senses.
- God's such a joke.
Don't you know he's just a brainwashing tool
designed to enslave the masses?
- Even if he were just a brainwashing tool,
do you ever think maybe your brain could use a good
scrub?
- (bleep) off.
- Lord, in your mercy, grant us water so that we may drink.
Lord, in your mercy, grant us (yelling)
- (bleep) Shelby.
(grunting)
Shit, I swear, I didn't mean to.
- It's all right.

- Go ahead and go on back.
I will too, but you should get a head start.
I'd really rather walk alone.
(dark music)
- Look, we found more Diet Coke of course,
because you know sugar sinks and then pants for you
so that your legs aren't cold.
- Thank you. - Not a bad haul,
but not great either.
But wait, there's more.
Huh?
You get a mini and you get a mini and you get a mini.
- Hey, you guys partying without me.
- [Martha] You're back.
Do you find any water?
- No.
- Where's Shelby?
Shelby.
- Yeah, she's right there.
- Your head.
- Oh, it's fine.
Ran smack into a tree if you can believe.
Very silly of me.
- Hey!
Hey, the phone's working.
It's working.
Listen, we have to be strategic.
We only have one bar and almost zero battery life left.
Every second counts.
- May I just say I am ready to make the call?
Okay my aunt is a 911 operator-
- No, 911 is out.
It doesn't work in every country
and we don't even know where we are.
So if we're closer to like Japan, 911 is useless.
- Japan's emergency number is 119.
- Look, we only have to get in contact with one person.
So I want you all to have someone in mind,
make sure you know their number
and make sure they love you enough
to be waiting by the phone right now.
Okay?
- Of course there's only one number I knew by heart.
Hey, I had to tell my parents you were an Uber.
What are you doing here?
I thought the San Jose reading didn't end in,
are you okay?
- September 5th.
September 5th is your birthday
when you turned 17.
- Oh my gosh. - How did-
(bleep)
- What? - This is serious.
- Okay somebody- - She's 16?
- Somebody sent me
a copy of your birth certificate
in certified mail and that means that somebody knows.
- Wait, what? - Somebody's watching or,
and that's like some other level of,
you have to get out of the car.
- Just give me a second.
Just let me explain. - Leah, you got to
get out of the car.
You lied to me.
You're a child and you lied to me.
(ominous music)
- [Rachel] You're not calling mom and dad?
- They're in Morocco, they probably don't even know yet.
I'm calling coach. - No, not her.
I'm calling dad's cell. - No stop.
- They're not gonna answer, they're out of the country.
- You just need to call coach.
You can't call her.
(dial tone beeping)
- Great job.
- Did you dial it right?
- Of course I did.
- Do you mind?
If I know Dave and Joe Beth Goodkin,
they're piecing holes in the carpet right now.
(dial tone beeping)
Well that's just strange.
Let me real quick try my boyfriend.
- Don't bother, Andrew's probably dick deep
in Krista Finley by now.
- Oh, okay.
- Go Marty.
(mysterious music)
(dial tone beeping)
- It didn't work.
Do you want to try?
It's your phone.
- No I'm good.
- Here.
As much as I hate the idea of calling those assholes-
(group mumbling over each other)
- Why didn't your mom pick up?
- Hey, are you all right?
- Sorry.
(sad music)
- It's ringing.
(sad music) (phone ringing)
- Guys.
- (bleep) It's dead.
- She's dead.
(sad music)
- I don't get why we have to bury her.
They're gonna come for us soon,
then we'll have to dig her right back up.
- It's only temporary,
just to keep the animals away.
- Shouldn't somebody say a few words?
- Sounds like you're volunteering.
- I am an ordained youth minister.
- Lord, thank you,
for the gift of Jeanette.
We didn't know her real well,
but she had a really bright spirit
and because she was made in your image,
we can be sure that she was beautiful.
Amen.
- [Girls] Amen.

- I'm gonna swim out to the plane tomorrow
see if I can find anything.
Might be a radio or call box or something.
- I'll come with you
- How's your stuff so dry?
- My parents got me this water tight
thousand dollar suitcase for this trip.
They thought it would like sweeten the deal.
(bleep)
Sorry.
- Thank you.
- Hey, let me get one.
This is my rock bottom.
- So would it be crazy if I suggested a little icebreaker?
Never have I ever feels right.
- All right, only if you go first.
None of those bullshit lightweight answers,
give us the real.
- Fine, never have I ever
had vaginal penetrative intercourse.
- So that's why your boyfriend's a cheat?
- [Shelby] He's not a cheat.
- Glad I'm not the only one.
I would've felt so stupid.
- Get out of here.
It takes guts to save yourself, you know that?
- Alright, never have I ever had a threesome.
With two guys, not two girl
on my period.
- I mean I'm not a freak.
(laughing)
- All right, I got one.
Never have I ever thrown my own piss at someone.
- Drink up, Toni.
- With pride (bleep).
(girls laughing)
(soft music)
- So who'd you (bleep)?
I mean I always thought you were some weird art prude but
I saw you drink, I know you've had sex.
So who was it?
- Him.
- Damn, I had no idea you were such a bad bitch.
- Well in your defense, we've never really talked before so-
- True story.
So was it hot?
- Yeah.
Yeah, but maybe in like a burning building kind of way,
like probably really good I get out.
- Shit, that's poetic.
Well at least your first time guy's face
is on the back of a book.
My first time was with a (bleep) grocery bagger
at Smart and Final.
God, I loved him.
I loved him.
- You seem tired.
We can be done for the day.
The doctors really need you to rest.
- A burning building.
- I'm sorry.
- A burning building.
I hadn't made it out, I wasn't even close.
There's something I
I haven't - What?
- Told anyone this before.
That night in the dark,
I was the only one who heard it.
(phone ringing)
a ringing (phone ringing)
buried where no one thought to look.
(phone ringing)
I didn't know why she had kept it from us.
(phone ringing)
(breathing heavily)
(mysterious music)
I thought I had evolved,
that the day had somehow made me stronger just a little,
just enough.
What a (bleep) delusion.
(phone ringing)
- And she chose to call him
and his stupid flip phone?
- Hello?
- Jeff.
- Leah, are you calling me from an unknown number
so that I'll pick up?
Because if you are that's really (bleep) up.
That is really, that is really, you have to stop calling me.
Don't text me.
Do you understand that?
I don't want to talk to you anymore.
It's over.
I'm so-
- [Young] So you never told the others
you made outside contact that night?
- What would I have said?
That I was too strung out on the sound of his voice
to send up an SOS?
Did he, did he reach out?
After the news broke, did he,
did he call anyone to say he'd heard from me?
- The authorities fielded a lot of calls
from a lot of worried parties.
- Did he care enough to do anything?
Anything, anything at all?
- Leah, how 'bout you take a deep breath?
- Answer my question.
It is the only one I have.
It is,
I just want to know if he tried for me.
(sad music)
Pathetic, I can say, no,
I expected more for me too.
Remember this when you see the others,
when you try to figure this out,
there is no crazy,
there's only damage.
And when you go looking for what caused it,
don't waste your time on that Island.
It'll get you (bleep) nowhere.
- I've been trying to reach you.
(phone beeping)
- Which one?
- Jeanette.
Can we even proceed?
I mean without her assistance on the ground-
- We have another operative.
Have you located her?
- Yeah.
- Is she still intact?
- Yeah, she's-
- Tell me exactly what happened.
- We're still piecing it together.
It looks like there was some mishandling
by the transition team.
- And you cut her phone?
- Of course.
- And you're absolutely sure she's dead?
- This was about three hours ago.
(mysterious music)
- In the group?
Oh my gosh. - What?
- Those bitches.

- Why, what, why, how
and what's that lady getting up to right now?
Someone call up Sophia.
- Yeah, Sophia, Sophia, ring, ring, ring.
Hello, Sophia.
- Why?
- I'm scared but excited, scared excited.
Okay, let's get Sophia back in here
and let's figure out what's going on.
- Sophia, oh my gosh,
that was a great first episode.
Can you please explain what that crazy plot twist was?
- I can't tell you in depth what happens,
but it's pretty crazy,
you got to keep watching to see.
- So did you have to keep this episode a secret?
Was it hard not telling anybody about this?
- Yeah, I mean, we shot this a year ago,
I don't even know, it's been awhile.
So I obviously was naturally very excited
about the specific content of the show
and wanting to share it with my friends and family.
And it was difficult to sort of just like keep it
at its like skeleton premise.
- There is a decent amount of action in this episode.
Did you guys have to train for your roles?
- We did some water training
where you're like put in a tank,
see how long we could hold our breath.
In some of the scenes where we were fighting,
we did rehearse those,
we choreographed them.
But for the most part, no.
There a lot of times where we were just thrown
into these like crazy scenarios
and it really upped the stakes for us as actors,
you know, made it so much more real 'cause it was.
- Could you describe your character for the audience?
- Fatin is so undoubtedly herself.
She is promiscuous and girly
and it was cool for me to play this character.
She is very much into how she looks.
- How similar are you to your character?
Was it tough to play them?
Was it easy?
- I relate to Fatin in a way that any teenage girl
or someone who was a teenage girl would relate to Fatin.
She struggles so much with her family dynamic,
especially coming from a Muslim family.
And I'm half Pakistani, half white American
and my dad's family is Muslim
and you know, I was exposed to that,
but I did have more of a option with
what I was able to believe
and Fatin didn't really have that
and I think that she struggled a lot with
that sort of control.
And I think a lot of teenagers do, you know?
We question our parents and then they tell us what to do
and we question them more because we just want independence.
- So what's in store for the rest of the season?
Why should the audience binge "The Wilds"?

anything, watch the show.
