David Estes: Saul, I want you to do the interrogation.

Saul Berenson: With all due respect, David, I think Carrie should do it.

David Estes: Are you sure Carrie is emotionally stable enough for this?

Saul Berenson: What makes you think she’s not?

David Estes: Well, just look at her!

[ reveal Carrie spazzing out ]

Saul Berenson: David, is it because she’s a woman?

David Estes: No, it’s because she’s washing down pills with white wine.

David Estes: Sorry, Saul, I can’t do it.

Carrie Mathison: What’s going on here, David? Are you guys talking about me? Were you talking about me? Oh, hi, Brody! Are you leaving your wife for me? I’m just kidding… ah ah ah, ha ha…

Saul Berenson: Listen, Carrie, for some reason, David doesn’t want you to do the interrogation.

Carrie Mathison: No! David, no, no! David, no, no! David, no, no, no!

Saul Berenson: She makes some good points, David.

Carrie Mathison: And do what?

Saul Berenson: Would you like to pin some pictures to that corkboard?

Carrie Mathison: Yes, I would really like that! [ she retreats to the corkboard ]

Nicolas Brody: That’s a secret that only everyone knows!

David Estes: Well, this couldn’t get any worse…

[ suddenly, Brody’s daughter enters, brooding ]

Saul Berenson: Oh no, Brody’s daughter.

Dana Brody: Dad? Dad, are you here? Dad? Dad? Dad, are you here?

David Estes: How’d she walk into a CIA facility?

Saul Berenson: She just shows up places.

Dana Brody: [ standing next to Carrie ] Dad, who is this? When are you coming home, Dad?

Carrie Mathison: Hi Dana, I’m Carrie! I’m your new mommy!

Dana Brody: Dad, no!

Nicolas Brody: Carrie, enough! You leave me and my family alone, do you understand?

[ suddenly, Carrie starts really freaking out, her face all over the place ]

David Estes: Oh no, this isn’t good: there goes the chin!

Saul Berenson: She’s having one of her jazz freak-outs.

David Estes: Just look at her, it’s like she makes her mouth turn fully upside down! Her eyes seem to be looking five directions at once! It’s like her whole face is chewing gum!

Saul Berenson: She’s a rock, David, nothing gets to her.

Carrie Mathison: David, David, Glavid, Ron!

Saul Berenson: She’s the best in the biz.

David Estes: No, I made my decision: Carrie is not doing the interrogation.

Saul Berenson: Let me tell you something one of only ten rabbis once told me. Sometimes, wisdom is found in the craziest people.

David Estes: What?! Okay, you convinced me. Carrie can go with it.

Nicolas Brody: She’s already in there, and she’s already having sex with him.

[ reveal Carrie making out with the suspect, as Dana enters [

[ cut to Narrator standing atop the city ]

Narrator: The island of Manhattan! full of life AND history! And mystery!

[ bouncy music starts to play ]

Narrator: [ singing ]
“There’s legend in this city and this legend is a man
Who he is and where he comes from, it is hard to understand.
He’s a creature like no other and his name is Mokiki
He wanders cross the island doing just one thing:”

[ cut to Mokiki standing in the street ]

Narrator: [ singing ] “Mokiki does the Sloppy Swish.”

[ in the street, Mokiki does his Sloppy Swish as unsuspecting pedestrians watch with great confusion ]

[ a girl passes Mokiki in the subway and watches him with great awe ]

Narrator:
“He’ll hypnotize you!”

[ spirals surround her and appear in her eyes ]

Narrator: [ singing ]
“Mokiki roams the street, he appears without a sound
He does his Sloppy Swish, ???
What is the Sloppy Swish? It’s a move that is outrageous
You try it, you may like it, because it is CONTAGIOUS!

[ the girl spies on Mokiki from behind a brick wall ]

[ Mokiki intrudes on other people in the streert and in the park ]

Narrator: [ singing ]
“Mokiki does the Sloppy Swish
He does not respect personal space!
Mokiki does the Sloppy Swish
He’s most likely carrying diseases!

Some say he comes from Norway, some say he is a spirit
His police report will tell the truth, if you wish to hear it.
His real name’s Thomas Furke, used to be a lab test dummy
Submitting to experiments to make a little money.
He lives in a wine bottle submarine, and his best friend is a glove
But one question that I have: Can Mokiki fall in love?”

[ the girl sits next to Mokiki at a park bench ]

Girl: Forgive this intrusion, but… I think you’re magnificent. Tell me your secrets, please? You can trust me.

[ Mokiki leans over as if to kiss her, but instead spews green liquid at her face ]

Narrator: [ singing ]
“Mokiki does the Sloppy Swish
His venom’s a side effect from his experiments!
Mokiki does the Sloppy Swish
It makes his dance LITERALLY contagious!”

[ the girl transforms into a female Mokiki look-alike ]

Narrator: [ singing ]
“Mokiki does the Sloppy Swish
Everybdoy’s doing it!
Mokiki does the Sloppy Swish
They’re starting a family!

It’s a really stupid dance… created by a crazy person.”

Mr. Calender: Is it two people?

Detective Nance: Oh, my God! Alright! Oh, my God… okay.

Mr. Calender: No, wait a minute! Is this like a “Sixth Sense” thing, where it turns out he’s alive and we’re all dead?

[ Dan begins to rub his hands all over the dead man’s face and tap his chest like a set of drums ]

Detective Nance: No! No! I kind of wish we were all dead right now. Okay? KLook, I’m gonna level with you 100%, alright? We’re 100% SURE that THIS is your brother! All we need from you is a simple comfirmation! It can be a “YES!” It can be a “NOT!” It can be a positive-sounding GRUNT! Just tell us something we can do to make this happen!

Mr. Calender: Maybe you can pull… pull the sheet back, and I’ll just run through a few guesses real fast.

Detective Nance: No, it dosn’t WORK like that, Sir!

Coroner: [ chuckling ] I kinda want to see what he’s gonna say!

Detective Nance: Okay, fine! Fine! Okay, ready! Let’s do it! Pull it back, here we go! [ Dan covers the body ] Ready? And… GO!!

[ Dan pulls the sheet to reveal the body ]

Mr. Calender: Lucy Lui!

Detective Nance: No!!

[ Dan covers the body, then pulls the sheet ]

Mr. Calender: American Dream?

Detective Nance: That’s clever — but NO!

[ Dan covers the body, then pulls the sheet ]

Mr. Calender: Wait — can he guess who I am first?

Detective Nance: NO!! What are you TALKING about?!

Mr. Calender: Oh, my God! It’s JFK! WE SOLVED IT!! [ he throws his arms in the air ]

Detective Nance: Okay! Alright! Look! It is NOT JFK! Alright?

Mr. Calender: [ pointing to Dan ] It’s his brother!

Coroner: [ looking down ] Dennis?

Detective Nance: WHY would you think that’s your brother?

Coroner: I don’t know!

Mr. Calender: Morris Day and The Time?

Detective Nance: You think THIS man is Morris Day and the ENTIRE band… The Time?!

Mr. Calender: Maybe it’s just Morris and a couple of the guys…?

Detective Nance: Okay! This hasn’t been very much help! Thank you very much…

Mr. Calender: I-I-I just figured it out! It’s so simple!

Detective Nance: What?

Mr. Calender: Maybe my dead brother has bene insude all of us the entire time.

Detective Nance: No! Dude, we’re NOT looking for a MORAL! Okay? I think we’re done here, alright? Is there anyone else — ANYONE else here in the family that can I.D. this person?

Mr. Calender: Yeah, my brother. [ he taps the body ] Hey, Bro!

[ suddenly, the dead man rises ]

Brother: Yeah, man?

Detective Nance: What the…?!

[ Dan tries to look surprised ]

Mr. Calender: These guys want you to do something. They’ll explain it. I don’t get it.

Brother: Yeah, okay. I’ll see you at home, Bro!

Mr. Calender: Okay, see you later. [ he walks off ]

[ Nance looks curiously at Dan ]

Coroner: He said he was dead!

Detective Nance: He said he was dead?!

Coroner: He said he was dead!

Detective Nance: How does that work?

Brother: Ohhhh, I got it! I’m Yao Ming!

Detective Nance: No! No, you’re not! No, you’re not!

[ he lies the man back on the gurney and covers the shet over his head ]
