Transcript

(Musical montage of the lab and the process)

Spencer: (Pops out from the side of the camera) Welcome to our makeshift lab. It's our little refuge away from The Order. We're trying to create a serum to help Bree using the blood sample that Daniel got last week. This place actually belongs to my friend Ira Cronenberg...well, it's actually his dad's, um, they're going to turn this into an office building. But you know what it used to be? (Turns to Taylor, who has been working in the background) Tell 'em, Taylor.

Taylor: A morgue.

Spencer: (Sniffs the air) Do I smell rotting flesh?

(Taylor rolls her eyes in the background. Cuts to musical montage of the lab and the process)

Taylor: (Frustrated) Spencer, it's not working. It's still white.

Spencer: (VO) Uhm...Might've done something wrong. It's okay. (Cut shot of Spencer) Quick refresher, zinc oxide is thermochromic, so in its crystalline form, when heated, it goes from white to yellow and then back to white again once cooled down. So it should be yellow by now.

Taylor: Maybe I grinded up the wrong sample.

(Spencer dipped his finger in the powder)

Spencer: (VO) You idiot!

Taylor: (Worried) What? What did I do?

Spencer: (VO) I'm just kidding. It's calcium, no big deal. (Laughs)

(Cut shot to Spencer talking directly to the camera)

Spencer: It's strange, trying to save someone you never met.

(Cut shot to Taylor)

Spencer: (VO) Taylor, tell me a little bit more about Bree. I mean, what was she like?

Taylor: (Contemplates for a moment and shakes her head) I-I don't know. I mean, I-I wish I knew her better. They were in Texas for, like, a week, but we spent maybe an afternoon with them. She was really nice.

Spencer: That's it?

Taylor: (Sighs) Well, Daniel and Jonas obviously care a lot about her, so there has to be something special about her that they're willing to sacrifice so much for.

(Camera pans to Spencer)

Spencer: Yeah, my dad too. Man, I hope what we're doing here works.

(Cut shot to Taylor, who is now holding the camera)

Taylor: Spencer decided to take over for me for a little bit because he felt like I wasn't using all the necessary safety precautions. (Rolls her eyes) He's getting a little bit paranoid.

Spencer: (Looking into a microscope) Hey, I'm not the only paranoid one here. After last night, we should all be on our toes.

Taylor: (VO) Yeah, Alex's video creeped us all out.

Spencer: (Looking around) Wait. What was that?

Taylor: What was what?

Spencer: That sound. (Gets up from the stool)

Taylor: (Whispers) What?

Spencer: (Puts his ear to the door) Maybe it's a Watcher. (Holds in his laughter)

Taylor: That's not even funny, Spencer.

Spencer: Seriously, I'm not paranoid. Paranoia is when you think you're being followed, but you're not. We, on the other hand, are legitimately being followed.

Taylor: Okay. So if we're not paranoid, then what are we?

Spencer: Surviving?

Taylor: (quietly) That's deep, Spence.

Notes

• Spencer and Taylor's flirtatious attitudes have waned noticeably in this video.
