Women Who Kill Page #3

Synopsis: Commitment phobic Morgan and her ex-girlfriend Jean are locally famous true crime podcasters obsessed with female serial killers. There's a chance they may still have feelings for each other, but co-dependence takes a back seat when Morgan meets the mysterious Simone during her Food Coop shift. Blinded by infatuation, Morgan quickly signs up for the relationship, ignoring warnings from friends that her new love interest is practically a stranger. When Jean shows Morgan proof that Simone may not be who she says she is, Morgan accuses Jean of trying to ruin the best thing that's ever happened to her. But as she and Simone move into commitment territory, Morgan starts to notice red flags -- maybe Jean was right and Simone isn't as perfect as Morgan's made her out to be. Morgan and Jean investigate Simone as if she were a subject of their podcast, they uncover disturbing clues -- a death at the Food Coop, a missing friend, a murder weapon -- leading them to suspect her not only of mystery,

name and you slept with her?

I didn't know your first

name, and I slept with you.

Yes, you did.

You just thought it

was pronounced "Zhon."

Jean, she's not yours to Google.

Come, Google with me.

I don't want to.

It's like the first step

in a serious relationship.

Seriously, stop.

Ooh.

Kay.

You like her.

Don't make fun of me.

You're just being sensitive.

No, I'm genuinely curious.

Well, I don't want

to share this, Ok?

I want something that's mine.

Ok.

Fine.

I won't take any

interest in your life.

Thank you.

Love was when I had my hands

wrapped around their necks.

Sorry.

My hand slipped.

Let's go, lips!

Let's go, lips!

Yeah, lips.

Flick those dirty beans

until they're clean.

Man, this team's

killing it this season.

Strike.

Eye on the ball, Jones.

Keep that energy up, ladies.

Let's go pitcher.

You got this.

You got this.

You got to get a

key so she'll break.

Stop f***ing with your phone.

Ball.

You got this.

Play the first.

It's my crime

blotter app, actually.

Then actually stop f***ing

with your crime blotter app

through your phone.

I haven't see you

in months, dude.

A girl can clock out a minute.

It hasn't been months.

I met Simone 49 days ago.

Out.

- Motherf***er.

Good job, pitcher.

Way to go.

49 days?

What is she, an infant?

Yeah, t.

Good hop there, t.

All right.

Out.

I mean, she's pretty and sh*t,

but that b*tch has secrets.

You've never even had a

real conversation with her.

I don't have to.

I know her type.

And she's the type that's

gone in three months.

Why is everybody

so unhappy for me?

I didn't treat you like

this when you met Kim.

That's because when

I met Kim, I didn't

pretend you didn't exist.

Ball.

Sorry.

I just miss you.

I'm sorry too.

You got it.

I'll make more of an effort, Ok?

Maybe we can all

have dinner together.

Let's go, pitcher.

Yeah, I'll cook meat.

Well, if you could have

some vegetarian options.

- Yeah, lips.

Yeah.

Woo!

Pound that p*ssy, ladies.

Pound it.

I was really annoyed with

what she was just talking about.

Wow, you're beautiful.

Oh, thanks.

Do you know what

else is beautiful?

Um...

Compost.

Would you smile

if I were to tell

you that the earth machine can

compost pretty much anything?

Oh, there's a smile.

All right, but we have

to get serious, Ok?

- Ok.

- The future is dirt.

And you have to...

Wait.

Allison?

Allison, it's me.

Candice.

So you hit your head?

I was on the rooftop farm.

I slipped.

I"m going to

have you put those away.

Dispatcher:
EMTs want

to know if we need a stretcher.

You're late.

You want a stretcher?

You're supposed

to be five minutes early.

Oh, I think your clock's fast.

My phone...

Or maybe your clock's just

wound a little too tight.

Copy.

- Morgan, phones.

- What?

I was supposed to show Simone...

I'll show her.

Our victim is on the move,

heading out to you now.

Receiving victim.

Copy.

Attention all members,

there's been another

accident in the urban farm.

Please be advised

that the area is

off-limits until further notice.

I repeat, the urban farm will

be closed until further notice.

This is where we

keep all the backup files.

Everyone who's been a member

since 1973 is in here.

Seems like a waste of paper.

Yeah, well, systems

go down, Simone.

And when our system

goes down and all

the information on

the computer is lost,

guess what's going to save us?

Grace's files.

Go to the orange tab

and take out a file.

Hold it.

Hold it, please.

And you cross-reference

it on the iPad.

If she's still a member, she

goes back into the drawer.

But if she's no longer a

member, she's inactive.

She goes into the shredder.

Got it?

Focus.

I need two volunteers

for the super-clean shift.

I've already fulfilled

my super-clean requirement.

Come on.

If I don't get two

volunteers in the next hour,

I got to do it myself.

And I already opened

and close that day.

Sorry, Darren, I can't deep

clean at 4:
00 in the morning.

It's just that I trust

you, Morgan because you

don't break the rules.

For example, you wouldn't

have stolen anybody's

personal information, would you?

I was going to put it back.

It's all good.

I'll take care of that for you.

You just got to fill this out.

This is blackmail.

It's cool.

You can go back to key

foods if you want to.

I'm fine with that.

No, no, no, fine.

Give me the form.

Her too.

Simone?

Thank you, Morgan.

You did the right thing.

I'm such a coward.

What?

Why?

I signed us up for

a super-clean shift.

Darren pressured me.

And you volunteered me too?

Well, I had to.

You can't let

that place own you.

Well, what's the alternative?

Not to shop there.

No, that's not an alternative.

Simone.

I need to talk to

you, Simone Ellis.

Grace, we're done.

The co-op's closed.

No, that's fine.

Go ahead.

Call you later.

But I got us tickets to

"juice my cold-pressed body."

Yeah, I'll meet you there.

Sorry.

What happened?

Everything Ok?

- Yeah, why?

You seemed a little

out of it tonight.

Oh.

What was burning?

I think you should

move in with me.

Oh.

Coming?

You don't think it's too soon?

I don't think in those terms.

What terms?

Just terms.

It's just everything's

so good now.

I don't want to force anything.

Simone?

You know me, don't you?

I think so.

You do.

And I know you.

So don't complicate it with

all the things you don't know.

Ok, let's do it.

Really?

Yeah.

See you later.

I'm really happy.

Me too.

Morgan, Morgan.

Jean?

Did you follow us?

Are you Ok?

I'm fine.

Sorry, I haven't answered

your calls or texts.

I just...

No, I mean about grace.

What about grace?

Another accident?

Jesus, that f***ing farm.

You saw her that day, right?

That was your shift.

Your memory is disturbing.

Well, we share calendars.

Oh, sh*t.

We should fix that.

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

And you have to

promise me not to get mad.

I cannot promise you that.

Why?

Because you always make me mad.

Ok, fine.

Promise that you won't

storm out of the room.

Jean, just ask me the question.

Ok.

All right.

Did Simone and grace get along?

No one got along with grace.

I mean, did they argue?

What are you...

When your shift ended, did

you and Simone leave together?

Yes.

But she...

What?

She went back in

to talk to grace.

But she met me later that

night at the art gallery.

Simone Ellis isn't Simone Ellis.

She changed her name

when she was 18.

You made a binder.

Yeah, when I googled her

real name, Allison Walker.

Wait, Allison?

Yeah, why?

Morgan, Walker.

Here, listen.

March 13, 2015.

This is tape 2, Josephine "the

clipper" Walker interview.

Josephine, we started

talking about regret.

Do you regret anything?

Josephine:
I regret what

this has done to the

people who've survived it.

The families of the victims?

Their families, my family.

You mean your daughter, ally?

She used to be ally.

I don't know what

happened to her.

When was
