Mosaic (2018) s01e05 Episode Script

1 Sir, I need you to put your hands up where I can see them.
Joel freakin' Hurley, here in Salt Lake, Utah.
Never thought I'd see you here again.
You'll go on the record saying that you were with Joel from ten o'clock New Year's Eve? I picked him up at midnight.
I'm trying to figure out why he would lie about who he was with.
I told them the truth about that night.
That you and I were not at the movies.
They found a body.
I need you guys off the property now.
This is about me, trying to do my job.
Don't make me an idiot for going to bat for you.
Jaycee said you owed her money.
I thought you said you could not get anybody to talk to you? Why did you come back here? Don't you talk to me that way! It's just really important that the truth was out there.
The T-shirt was found with the body.
And there's bleach, which means there was an attempt at a cover-up, along with blood and paint.
Maybe to wipe it off the wall? Yeah, until they realized it was futile.
Then they just threw it in that tarp that we found the body rolled up in.
And what about the blood on it? Yeah, I think it's hers.
We're gonna run tests.
We're gonna do a full DNA spectrum on the shirt.
And there's this.
I have no idea what it is.
It was found jammed into a fold of skin in the lower abdomen.
Secondary murder weapon? Nah, it was just it's thin plastic.
Um, it could've been used to jam the body down in the hole we found it in, or it could be nothing.
- Did you photograph these? - Yeah, I'll email them to you.
- Thank you.
- All right.
You know, if you want my opinion, I think this whole thing started out as an accident.
Yeah.
A fall that's an accident a punch less of an accident and then there is what I would like to call a whole list of unprofessional concussive events.
I'm sorry, unprofessional? Oh, yeah.
Smack here, failed choking attempt.
Oh, and then a more final, more conclusive concussive event to the left side of the face and head.
Indicating a right-handed person, right? Yeah, between 180 and 220.
It's always amazing to me how you can figure that out.
And an existentialist and a Gemini.
- Sorry, what? - I just made that up.
Mike.
What the eff? What, you didn't hear? No.
20 minutes ago, this guy comes completely out of the woodwork.
Says he used to be partners with Eric Neill.
Oh, yeah, tied him to a whole bunch of cases in the past.
Like grifter stuff.
Yeah, there was, like, a retarded girl with a huge trust fund.
Same MO as the Olivia Lake murder case.
This is bull.
Oh, no, no, he had some good stories.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
It's bull that this is happening now.
Nothing just comes out of the blue.
- Nate? Hey, Natey.
- Hi.
Hon, this is not a good time.
There's something I wanna talk to you about.
I've been thinking Seriously, they just dragged someone out of the woodwork for me to deal with now.
- Nate.
- What? That's what this is about.
I saw it.
Someone is playing dirty.
I know, I know.
Someone wants me off the Joel trail and back onto the Eric trail Okay, well, this is my thought.
If you wanted, do the same.
What? Leak something, chum the waters.
- No! - See what Joel does.
I'm never gonna do that! That is it's unethical.
It's dishonest and it's bad police work.
Unless it proves you're right.
Then behind every door upstairs they're gonna be calling you a genius.
No, sorry, that's not gonna happen.
Let them bang pans and flash lights all over Eric.
Thank you for the suggestion, which I'm very surprised at, but I'm not gonna do that.
I love you, but I'm not gonna do that.
- Excuse me.
- Okay.
Oh, there he is! Detective Henry, your thoughts on Casey Delacroix.
Who is he and why is this coming out now? Have no comment on an ongoing investigation.
- Excuse me.
- So it is an investigation? - No.
- Has it been reopened? - Pete.
- Does Casey Delacroix raise doubts or confirm your feelings about Eric Neill? Pete, nothing has changed.
In fact, I ask all of you to respect the memory of the victim, Olivia Lake.
Detective, you were part of the investigation four years ago.
Are you reopening this case? Let me restate, I am not reopening the case.
We're hearing that Eric Neill has a similar criminal history to that of the case of Olivia Lake.
Eric Neill's previous record has nothing to do with the current situation.
What's your plan now going forward? Guys, come on! The story is not about me.
In fact, there is no story.
- I have nothing to say.
- Has the body This is not about me, guys.
Come on.
Come on, guys! Come on, Pete, seriously! You know me.
You know that I don't talk to the press, even when there is something to say.
I have no comment.
Please.
Thank you.
I'll run you over.
Detective! but when you are through up on the hill, call me, period.
I have a question about Alan, period.
Won't take long, period.
Hey, Joel.
Just checking in.
Give a call when you can.
Hello? To accept a collect call from the Utah Department of Corrections, please press 1.
To know - Hello? - Pet, it's bullshit.
Somebody's paying him to talk.
I know him.
He wouldn't talk unless someone was paying him.
- Are you there? Petra? - What's going on? Okay, him and me worked together, but only a few times.
He doesn't know me, and nothing he's saying can be trusted.
Who is Eloise Brand? This trust fund girl Casey knew from some boarding school where he worked.
It was 12 years ago, and she was totally messed up and She fell in love with you, she put you into her will, and then she died like Olivia.
No, not like Olivia, and not till six months after, and she OD'd.
And not only did nobody press charges, there never were charges, 'cause nobody ever even once suspected me of anything ever.
Why am I finding out now? - 'Cause I didn't think it was anything.
- Eric.
I didn't wanna lose you, Pet.
You're all I have.
You're the only one who's ever believed me, believed in me.
What else don't I know? I promise that is all.
That's all you and Casey did? That, which had no charges, and Olivia.
And one other time a couple years before Olivia, we had an idea to convince all these Summit people to fund this bullshit dig for silver.
Anyways, long story, but we made a run at a few people and none of them bought.
Wait, you were in Summit before? Yes, just to talk to some people, but it went nowhere.
- Which people? - I don't know.
A few down the hill, a few up the hill.
The O'Connors? They were one, yes.
Why? Why? Pet, you there? Why do you ask? Is that how you met Olivia? I met Olivia through an incoming call a year later.
- From? - An attorney named Cliff Jones.
Cliff Jones? Who the fuck is Cliff Jones? He represented some rich European lady who wanted to buy Olivia's land, but Olivia wouldn't sell it.
Okay, why? I don't know, she was attached to it.
No, why did he call you? No idea.
You have no idea why of all people he called you? I didn't ask.
But you told your lawyer about Cliff Jones? Of course I did.
She said he didn't exist.
And anyways, that doesn't matter for this.
What matters for this is whoever is paying Casey wants me to stay in here.
And if you find who's paying Casey, you will find the person Olivia was talking about on that call, the person she was actually afraid of.
Shit, my time is up.
Come later.
Come see me.
Shit! Detective Henry.
- I assume that you got my - Duces tecum? Yeah.
Was it a joke? 'Cause I found it strikingly unfunny.
I'm not sure I understand.
You're asking me for a subpoena on a case that's not only closed, but is, in fact, solved because you're interested in widening the search for someone who's already been apprehended? Look, all I'm trying to do is my job I know.
Your former boss told me.
You're scratching a four-year itch based on a hunch, rooted in a feeling with the aid of an associate who let me see if I get this right is the sister of the person who confessed to the crime.
Well, the thing is Eric Neill never confessed.
Oh, come on, Detective.
- Give me a break! - It was an Alford plea.
He never admitted guilt.
I'm sorry, did I not see some new state mandate requiring a law school refresher course on a decision that I helped fashion - That's not what I - which, if you really if you really want me to be honest, was too light for a genuinely dangerous individual.
You might wanna trust me on this, Detective.
There are things about him.
So, here's what I have to say about your subpoena.
The next time you come to my office for help on a case that's actually active, I want you to remember this moment right here and the words coming out of my mouth right now as the reason why Dick Andreesen seemingly, inexplicably, and certainly assholishly said no.
Good luck, Detective.
Please close the door on your way out.
- Okay.
- Oh, and, Detective? Not really any of my concern, but the choices you make, the sides you pick they have consequences.
They sure do.
Good day Dick.
You happy now? Actually, uh, I'm angry now.
A more appropriate response would be fear.
This is a political town.
I just got called in to talk sense to you.
Dick Andreesen based his entire campaign on the successful conviction of Eric Neill.
- Speaking of political towns - What the fuck is that supposed to mean? It means check your source, Alan.
He doesn't want us re-examining any of this.
The source? The source, I'll remind you, was us.
Dick Andreesen and his whole team went on what we supplied.
No.
They went on what you supplied.
- We supplied.
- You s Okay, you were the one who was racing to nail Eric Neill.
You were the one who caved under pressure.
What pressure, Alan? I have no idea.
But let me ask you this who backed your new business? - What are you suggesting? - I don't know, man.
I hadn't honestly thought - Hey, hey, hey.
- about it till just now.
No one backed my business.
I was hired because my clients trust me.
You were hired by the same people who backed Dick Andreesen.
- How dare you?! - At the same time, by the way.
Why? No idea.
Are they connected? Honestly, I hadn't thought about that one either, but why was everyone so fast to convict Eric Neill? Because he committed a murder.
Maybe.
You know what? Probably.
But I don't know, though.
Yeah, well, you'd better know or else what I'm witnessing right now is somebody very quickly unraveling his career.
My career is fine.
Is it? Huh.
I don't know.
Maybe you're right.
And in that case, you know what, I'll eat my words.
But either way, I better go find out, because my job, my career, is to see that justice is served, not just that security is maintained.
Okay, just breathe.
Breathe.
It sounds like everything you said is correct.
Breathe.
I'd say maybe maybe the first part.
Yeah, yeah.
You know, maybe the "security is maintained" thing was a little harsh, but screw it, it's true.
Yeah, it is true, right? It is true, right? Right? - Oh - Yes, yes, honey.
And I totally planned none of it.
It's just as I was as I was going, I was starting I was starting to get on a roll.
And the words just started coming out, you know? Why did Alan suddenly get that new job, huh? Why? Do you know who his clients are? Do you know who his clients are? You know who his clients are? They're the O'Connors, the Kazmarskys, the Rileys, the Loutts, the Weeds.
And they are all the same people who supported Dick Andreesen.
Why? Why?! Oh.
Oh, the hush of heaven holds my heart today.
The hush of heaven holds my heart today.
- The hush of heaven holds my heart - Shh, shh, shh.
Sorry, sorry.
I was getting riled again.
I know, I know.
Can you drive? Honey? Can you drive? Absolutely.
- Okay.
- Absolutely, I can drive.
Oh.
Thank you.
Thank you, Melissa.
Okay, babe.
Don't worry.
- I love you.
- I love you, too.
Tom, what can I dig you out of? Have you seen any of this stuff? Yeah, just watching it now.
Huh, kooky stuff.
It's kooky.
Um Listen, I'm feeling a little behind the eight ball here.
The family calling and asking what's true, what's not.
There's no urgency with this whatsoever, but I just I'd love to get filled in on whatever gossip or, honestly, even genuine news that flies across your transom.
Sure, Tom.
Let me see what I can do.
Anything in particular you're looking for? Uh, yeah, it'd just be nice to know where this is all headed.
I see.
Sure, you bet.
Let me see what I can dig up.
Thanks, buddy.
I appreciate it.
Mm-hmm.
as the frozen body of Olivia Lake along with a T-shirt found buried with the body was discovered.
Sources say the shirt was torn and appeared almost tie-dyed, which our in-house forensics expert Mark Chamberlin says might mean it was used to try and bleach away the blood.
Also found this mysterious blue piece of plastic that might have been used in the murder itself or perhaps also in the disposal of the body, which sources connected with the lab say it was found wedged into the skin of Olivia Lake's rib cage.
In another new, bizarre twist, a man named Casey Delacroix reached out to KSL-5 and told us some very strange information.
In-room dining.
How can I help you? - Hello, room service? - Yes, sir.
Yeah, hi.
Can you have somebody please come up and remove the liquor from my minibar? Absolutely, sir.
Not a problem.
I'll have someone come right up.
That's room 304? Yeah, 304.
Thank you.
No problem, sir.
Right away.
Hello? Hello, I'm looking for Joel Hurley.
Come on, man.
Look, I'm dealing with a lot of stuff right now.
I feel super weird about this.
Like I'm condemning the guy all of a sudden.
Dude, yesterday, all you wanted to do was talk about the lie.
Yeah, but that was getting something off my chest.
This is putting something on my chest.
Frank! It was his right hand.
It was red and swollen and there was, like, a crack, okay, like, at the knuckle.
- You're certain of this? - Yeah.
I saw it when I was pulling up, and I was like, "Dude, that's your drawing hand.
What happened?" What did he say? He and Laura got into a fight.
He said he punched a wall.
She was acting all self-righteous.
You know how she can get.
Actually, I don't know her to be that way, no.
Yeah, well, trust me, underneath all that sweetness anyways, that's why he went with the girl, okay? - So the story goes.
- Uh Hey, Joel.
What's up, buddy? - Yeah, hey, Nate.
- I'm not here.
Some Cameron info for ya.
A lead, I think.
- Really? - Yeah.
- Okay.
- So, there was someone who actually tried to fence Olivia's drawing that was stolen from the safe, and I have the guy's email address.
- Here, I'll give it to you.
- You have his email address? - Yeah.
- Uh, well, great.
I wanna take that down.
Pen and paper, please.
- You ready? - Sure, yeah.
Okay, it's ray.
breslin@jnet.
Ray.
breslin - B-R-E-S - L-I-N.
- L-I-N@ - Yeah, @jnet.
jnet.
Okay, cool.
- Yeah.
- I will look into that.
Thank you.
Yeah, you're welcome.
You're welcome.
Hey, um, are you okay? You doing all right? Yeah.
Yeah, good.
Great.
No, it's just 'cause, uh, you sounded a little, uh, off earlier.
No, I'm good.
I'm good.
Uh, how about you? Me? No, I'm I'm good.
- I'm I'm all good.
- Yeah? - You doing okay? - Yeah.
- Yep, yeah.
- Hey, any new news? Nope.
No, uh no news.
- Nope.
- Hey, I gotta, uh I gotta check in with Laura here, so.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Hey, tell her I said, "Hi.
" Okay, bye.
- So you still want the minibar - Yeah! I don't understand.
When? I would say the next possible flight.
There's one out of MSY that gets you in at 6:00, puts you in Summit by 6:45.
Nate, you need to tell me what's happening.
I talked to him five minutes ago.
He said nothing.
Um only thing I can tell you is, uh you you really should be here, Laura.
I know this is maybe making it more difficult, but for Joel's sake, you can't talk to him until you and I speak in person.
How serious is this? Did did he do something? We'll talk when you get here, okay? Okay, bye.
Hey.
You okay? I need to go to Summit.
Now? Joel's in some kind of trouble, I think.
Nate, a friend of ours, a cop he won't tell me anything until I get there.
And he says that I shouldn't talk to Joel until he and I speak.
Shit, babe.
I'm sorry.
Oh He's fictional.
What do you mean he's fictional? He is a character from a movie.
Ray Breslin is Stallone's character from "Escape Plan.
" What what about the email? The email is registered to Cameron Morgan.
We knew where he was on December 31st.
- Yeah.
- Excuse me, Detective, someone named Petra Neill says she's been trying to reach you.
Tell her I've been getting her texts and she needs to stop trying to call me.
In fact, you can tell mm-hmm.
Hi.
We can't talk.
We never should have started talking.
Listen, this is big-picture thing.
When this is over, maybe, but until then, you must stop trying to reach me.
I'm sorry.
She doesn't get through again.
- Um, you're gonna hate this.
- Why? Turn on Channel 6.
Can I get some volume? quoting sources now who say two items were found with the body a T-shirt badly worn away by bleach and a small, blue plastic triangle that might have been used to bury the body.
Oh, gosh darn it! It didn't start out as a murder.
- I think it escalated.
- Mike! - A passion thing.
- It wasn't me.
Then who the heck was it? And what are you doing here? - I have friends here.
- He wanted some information.
I didn't think it'd be a big deal giving it to him.
Oh, Alan.
I just got here! I had no way to leak that.
See, I've been thinking about it, and I think it was someone from transport or IT.
I can't believe this.
I can't freaking believe this.
It's bad enough we got Andreesen digging up Casey freakin' Delacroix now! - We don't know he did that.
- Then who else could it be? Who else even has that information? Who else doesn't want Eric Neill appealing? Find out who leaked this.
- Nate, Nate - Wait, don't.
Hold on.
I got an idea.
Nate, Nate, you got a minute? Actually, Alan, I don't.
So, how do they know all this? It's all about carbon dioxide levels.
And they're thinking it was attempted strangulation, followed by the blunt force trauma to the jaw? My guy there's pretty convinced it was a rush job.
Accidental.
By an amateur.
She was upset.
Maybe somebody tried to stop her.
There were bits from the floor, cleaning solution resin or something in her nails.
Bruises on the knee, which means, you know scraping the ground, crawling.
Which means she fell.
Probably tried to get away.
- She was kicked.
- Hmm.
Fell back, perhaps.
Got up.
Strangled.
That didn't work.
And then the punch.
By a right-handed person.
They can tell that for sure? Oh, fairly certain.
It's incredible what they can do now.
Oh.
Eric Neill? - Is left-handed.
- Hmm.
And so that was what Oh, no.
It was a hammer.
Two or three, maybe four blows.
- Eesh.
- Yeah.
So how are you with all this? What do you mean? Well, personally What? Well, you you had that thing with her a while ago.
I'm fine.
Why? No, no.
No.
- Is that clouding anything for you? - No.
No, that We were a brief thing about a dozen years ago.
I mean, hell, you know, it was upsetting seeing her come out of the ground.
But after a few minutes, it was all line-of-work stuff.
Well, that's good to know.
Hmm.
Oh, hey, listen.
Um I've been hearing some concerns from some of the neighbors.
It's funny, some of them are two miles away.
We call them neighbors.
About all the activity on our property on everyone's properties.
So, I just wanted to give you a heads up so you're not surprised when you see some new faces around here for a little while.
I'm sorry, new faces? We've got an operation in Atlanta.
They're lending us some of their team.
I don't want to bore you with it.
Dave Dorenzo will give you a call.
He just landed.
He'll download you.
He's got your number.
And and I'm too, uh Hold tight.
We'll let the frenzy on the hill play itself out.
Let's take it as it comes.
It's all good.
Morgan.
Hey, Morgan! Who's that? Who's that on TV? That guy looks like your dad.
That really good-looking, big, tall, strapping, handsome, talented young man looks like your dad talking about his job on TV! It was you? - What? - Who leaked it.
- What? - Nate.
So what are you talking about? Yes, it was me! You should've seen me! I was all like, "Pete, you know me.
I don't talk to no press.
" And then I dropped a card right in his pocket and I winked at him.
And it worked, right? Yeah, he's taking me to dinner next Saturday.
Yes, it worked! Thank you so much! You are a genius.
As soon as the story dropped, Joel is, like, boom, activated.
I got Roberts following him.
I'm waiting to hear the full report.
- Holy crud.
- I know, right? Yeah.
Mmm, I gotta go.
She's landing.
So, did Joel know he did it and he's just been lying? I I could not tell you.
But freaking Andreesen, if he wants to start a war with Nate Henry he better be prepared to get a taste of his own medicine.
I just don't understand why Andreesen cares that much about Eric Neill staying under.
It's his job.
It's embarrassment.
What if he got it wrong? You should have heard the way that he talked to me.
He's gonna regret it, and Alan is, and the whole political mountain-hillside, ginormous cabal, baby.
Sorry, is that a bit too big, too fast thinking? - Little bit? Little bit? - Mmm.
Little bit.
Okay.
Okay, take it down a notch.
All will be revealed.
All will be revealed in due time.
Good-bye, my boy.
Mm-wah! - I love you.
- If it makes any sense, say hi.
I will.
Thank you.
Yo, Roberts, how How far? Okay, okay, we still have time.
Okay, what the hell is going on? Hi.
Good to see you again.
I'm I'm looking for Horacio.
Do you know where he'd be right about now? Uh, right now he'd be at the Millers' house.
- The Millers? - You know Splendid Valley Road up to the left? I think so.
Splendid Valley, just stay on and take a left to go out, yeah? - Yes, uh-huh.
- All right.
Great to see you again.
Thank you.
Hey! Hi, Horacio.
Uh, really weird question about an insurance form I might have left in the truck.
Mind if I take a look? - Okay.
- Gracias.
Got it, thanks! Another trash can.
No you're missing your chance, man.
There's a gas station.
You passed four gas stations.
Just pull over.
Just pull over, man.
Just pull over.
Just pull over! - Just pull over, Joel.
- Okay, all right.
- Just pull over.
- Okay, I will! There's a gas station.
Just pull over, Joel! Shut up.
Shut up.
Shut up.
Shut up.
I'm doing it.
He's not looking.
I can't imagine what you're dealing with right now.
I need you to know that I didn't get into this to try and take down a friend.
It's okay, Nate.
I'm not guessing at this.
I mean, these are facts.
- This happened.
- It's okay, Nate.
- Speaker? - Yeah.
- Hi, Joel.
- Hey, babe, hey.
I've been trying to reach you for, like, two hours.
Oh, sorry, I had my phone turned off for a thing.
Never mind.
Hey, on the night, that night, what was our fight about? What night? I'm sorry, that night Olivia died.
New Year's Eve.
Do you remember our fight? Uh, yes.
Why? Did I hit a wall? I don't know, Joel.
I left.
You might have.
You you said you did, and so maybe you did, but but I honestly don't know.
Did I do that a lot, hit things? When you drank.
You know this.
- I can't talk right now, Joel.
- But on the night Back to that night, what what did we fight about? We fought about Olivia.
Hello? Did I say why? She said things to you.
What things? Mean things.
I don't know.
Does it matter? I have to go, Joel.
- Wait, what? Why? - I need I need to go.
I'm sorry.
Laura, what did she say to me? I I don't know, you know.
She wanted to square up.
I gotta go, Joel.
I'll see you soon.
I'm sorry.
I don't understand! Are you mad at Olivia or are you mad at me? By the way you're patronizing me, I can't tell the fucking difference! How is this patronizing?! We said we'd make changes in the new year.
- And it's New Year! - Eve! It's still the old year! All I said is I'm sick of things that only lead to dead ends.
Oh, because I'm a dead end? - I told you I don't want her - Oh, so you hate her, but apparently you agree with her! You know what? I'm done with this.
Oh, yeah, and you're done with me.
Jesus, what did she say to you that's got you acting like this? You know what? I'm going to Melissa's.
She invited us, I'm going.
You do whatever.
Fine, just get the fuck out! Fuck you, Joel.
I'll show you mine if you'll show me yours.
I'm sorry? Drawings, jeez.
You'll really look at my stuff? Sure.
You any good? You'll see.
Martini coming up.
Over the rocks, double.
I'm really surprised.
You've hit a wall, Joel.
There's really only two ways to go either up and over it, which I don't really see happening, or back it up and go another direction.
- Joel! Hey, - Huh? I've been trying to reach you.
What? Uh, sorry.
Um, some personal home.
I need to talk to you.
It's important.
I, um I actually don't know how to say this.
Um, when we met, when I came to Louisiana, I, um I wasn't direct with you.
I was dishonest, actually.
I, um yes, I was hoping to find something to to reopen Eric's case, but in truth Shit, it's Horacio.
I have to take this.
Don't go anywhere, please.
Please don't go.
¿Hola? - When? - She just got in a little while ago.
When I called, you were? Did you We've been discussing various things.
Mostly, how you guys left Summit.
Sobriety, the blackouts, debts.
Can I talk to you? Hey, hey.
Here's what I wanna do now I wanna go into the hallway with you for a moment.
Laura's gonna stay here.
Then you and her can have a heart-to-heart.
Come on.
Joel.
Just gonna say a few things that I know and a few things I'd like to find out about.
Ray Breslin is Sylvester Stallone's character in "Escape Plan.
" Joel, you seem to be a bit preoccupied.
Are you listening to me? What? Ray.
breslin@jnet.
Oh, yeah, then that'd be Cameron.
Yeah, yeah.
Maybe.
Sure, he, um he tried to fence the drawings.
But guess where he was on New Year's Eve.
He was in jail in Tucson.
Parole violation.
Anyhow I got out of a meeting with forensics today.
I got a copy of the report for you.
You can read it if you want later.
Maybe it'll help jog something.
The short of it? Olivia was hit on the jaw on the left side of her face by somebody who's right-handed.
I don't know if you know this, but Eric Neill is left-handed.
Your right hand was bruised, red, and swollen, both when Tia picked you up at midnight 11:57, to be exact and the next morning when Frank got you in town.
But listen, that's that's the least of it.
We had someone following you today, man.
As soon as you saw the information about what was found with the body, you left the hotel.
You went to Marcellus County.
That's where the gardener, Horacio, lives.
He's the guy you sold the truck to after the murder.
After Horacio you went to a gas station on I-80.
We've got guys headed down to the gas station now.
I've instructed them to check the Dumpsters.
You wanna tell me what they're gonna find, or should I hear it from them? So, what happens now? Now I go back to my office and I write up a warrant.
And I go to the prosecutor first thing in the morning, and when he signs it and I do believe that he will sign it then I talk to Judge Warren in chambers and I tell her what I'm telling you now.
And she approves it.
Joel, then I come back to this hotel room and you and Laura are gonna have to decide how to play this.
I remember what Olivia and I were arguing about.
She said I owed her money and I said, "It's not fair.
" And then I think I told her she wasn't honest.
And she said to me that I'll never make it as a as an artist.
And that the only reason I was on the farm was because she wanted to fuck me.
So I went to you.
You asked me what was wrong and I said some stuff.
And I seem to remember you siding with her.
Only about the fact she wanted to fuck you.
And I don't remember anything after that.
It's funny, I was like, "Joel loves that truck.
Why does he wanna sell it so fast? He doesn't care what Horacio pays for it, he just wants it sold.
Suddenly, Joel's the guy who wants to leave town when I've been telling him I wanna leave for, like, a year?" I have memories from before and from after, and I'm I'm starting to get some from in between, I think.
Did you go to the movies with Frank? No.
Were you with someone else? No.
But I thought I was, and I'm so sorry.
I don't understand.
You thought you were with someone else? I thought I did sleep with someone.
And I thought I was helping you by not telling you.
But I was afraid, 'cause you're such a good person.
- Joel, don't.
- You moved to Louisiana for me.
- With you! - No, but you didn't wanna go.
Not not there.
And you've been a rock and and a sponsor and a friend - and a partner.
- Please don't! That's why I wanted to leave Summit.
That's why I wanted to put it behind, and and it's been killing me a little bit every day since then.
And for one second yesterday, I I was so relieved to find out that I didn't cheat on you.
But I I don't remember that night.
I don't remember what happened, and I thought I did, and now it's just all a blank.
And when anybody tells me what might have happened, I start to see it like it did, and I don't know if it's real or if I'm having these images because they said them to me.
But I I do know that I hated my life.
And I know I was angry, and I mean, I was a ski instructor, then a bartender, then a groundskeeper/I-don't- even-know-what-the-fuck-I-was.
And and I lived in a barn.
What does your gut tell you? I don't know.
What does your soul tell you? That I need to think, or I don't know, maybe not think.
The messed-up thing, Joel? I still believe you're a good man.
Whatever that means.
I believe you are going to do the right thing.
I know what I have to do.
