there, huh?

- Huh?

- The... You...

Oh, they sure did.

PAUL:

My uncle had a cat,

used to scratch him

like that.

They can get real ornery, huh?

You have a cat?

Yeah, I have a cat.

I'll show you where

orientation is on the map.

Follow me.

I'll get you guys

settled in, huh?

Let me take that

for you.

Oh, it's okay.

I got it.

- No, please. I insist.

- I... I got...

Could you put that

under my...?

- That's it.

- You okay?

Uh-huh.

[SIGHS]

Come on,

you guys.

So are-are you

an actress?

Yeah, I-I used to be.

[CHUCKLING]

Yeah.

Your photo here looks

like one of those headshots.

It's an old one.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Gotcha.

Boy, it's been a long time

since I've seen the water.

MAN:

Hey-o.

What's up, Jersey?

They picked him

off that dick-licker story?

Heh, heh.

- What's up, man? Hey.

- Hey.

So, uh, check this out.

She really wanted

to come here, right?

- And I'm... I'm trying to be a good dude...

- Sure.

[LAUGHING] but what the f***

was up with that contract?

Kind of freaked me

the f*** out.

[LAUGHING] Yeah, no, it did

that to me too, but...

[WOMAN SCREAMING]

[CONTINUES SCREAMING]

Come on, let it out.

What?

[YELLING]

Let it out, out, out!

[SCREAMING]

[ALL SCREAMING]

It feels good to get

that out, doesn't it?

Mmm. Thank you so much.

And welcome.

My name is Lily.

Now, I know you must be

starving from your trip

so let's get started

right away.

Fredericks is handing each

of you your own cleansing kit.

Each kit contains

four drinks,

which you must consume

by the end of the day.

Now, each of these drinks

is specifically

formulated for each of you,

so don't drink anyone else's

by mistake.

After you've completed

your four-course cleanse

you'll find additional

nutritional supplement

in your cabinets

for the rest of your stay.

No outside food.

It's prohibited.

Oh, whoa.

[COUGHS, SPITS]

That tastes

like an a**hole.

What? Baby, I thought

you said this is about

being open,

being honest, right?

Getting rid of all

the bad stuff, right?

Yes, it is, Eric.

And thank you

for your candor.

But you must know that

these drinks are very powerful,

and while they may seem

like a bitter pill to swallow,

I can assure you that

I completed the course myself.

And the anxiety

and sadness that I felt

was replaced by...

humility, a clear mind

and an open heart.

[SLURPING]

LILY:

Good. Good, Paul. Good.

[GROANING]

[GROANS]

F***.

Fredericks here has been

cleansing for some time too.

We're hoping he completes

the course with all of you.

And now,

without further ado...

a message

from Ken Roberts.

ROBERTS [ON RECORDING]:

Hello, everyone.

Congratulations on being

one of the chosen few
