It's Meg, right? Do you still talk?
Meg AbbottYes.
Where's Laurie?
Meg AbbottI don't know.
Is she OK?
Meg AbbottI don't know.
I'm the only person that gives a shit about you people, and you won't even tell me where my wife is?
Meg AbbottShe's not your wife anymore.
Meg AbbottThis is hard, huh? Not knowing what's gonna happen. You must be curious about what I'm gonna do when we get to Texas. Are you, Tom? 'Cause it's pretty fucking amazing what I'm gonna do.
Why'd you fuck me? I know why you poured gasoline on me. I know why you threatened me, to try to send a message to my mom. But why did you fuck me?
...
Meg AbbottTo get you pregnant.
What?
Meg AbbottI wanted to get you pregnant. That's why I fucked you, Tom.
I can't get over it.
Meg AbbottWhat?
Well, seeing you here in Texas. What? It's pretty amazing, don't you think?
Meg AbbottNot really. I mean, if we were just anywhere, it would be a coincidence, but we're here in Miracle. I think we both came here for the same reason.
What reason is that?
Meg AbbottBecause this place is safe.
Now that you've left the Remnant.
Meg Abbott'’': Exactly. It was really hard to get away, you know, because they're everywhere. But I started to think to myself, there must be somewhere that the Guilty Remnant wouldn't work, you know? Wouldn't work? Right, because in order to get someone to join them, that person needs be in pain. And the people on the other side of that bridge, Matt, they were spared. They're just not suffering like the rest of us are.
You know, Megan, I don't think you're being entirely honest with me.
Meg AbbottYou think I'd lie to a priest?
Today is the anniversary, isn't it?
Meg AbbottOf the Departure? No, I believe that's tomorrow.
Not the Departure. Your mother's death. You do remember attacking me in Mapleton? I was outside your house handing out fliers with your mother's photo on them. I know it was cruel. I'm sorry for digging into your life like that, but I was doing everything I could to make you feel again.
Meg AbbottI had forgotten that.
Well, then I apologize for being your living reminder.
Meg AbbottCan I ask you something?
Sure.
Meg AbbottWhat you waiting for?
I'm sorry?
Meg AbbottYou and all these people out here, you're so close. It's right there. Just over the bridge. You want it, but you're not doing anything to get it. So what are you waiting for? You want me to tell you?
Yes.
Meg AbbottYou're waiting for me.
