Windfall s01e06 Episode Script
White Knights
Previously on Windfall You've seen the gym, the library, the screening room Some people live like this.
Why not us? We should buy it.
We swap out the machinery, build high-end racing bikes like we always said.
Look, we can work out a percentage deal, it's not a problem.
You mean, you would own part of the company? I want in if the door's still open.
What'd I do without you, huh? Hey, do you happen to have a business card by any chance? In case you want to call about anything.
Well, you got the money.
Are you happy? I guess it's only a million less than I should have, but same with you.
I would give everything I have to keep you in my life.
He gave you away for $200,000.
Frankie, I'm not the answer here.
You need to find someone else.
I chose to marry you 'cause I love you.
And I know we're on shaky ground.
But a baby won't help that.
Zoe's dead.
Some Russian confessed to killing Zoe.
- Police! Don't move! - Hands on your head! Don't move! Your wife's being arrested in connection with the death of Zoe Reida.
- Do we need a lawyer? - Damien! Which one of these buttons dims the lights? You got me.
Driveway gate, the espresso machine, the new neighbors I don't know how to work any of them.
This bed, though, huh? It's as big as our old house.
It just feels that way 'cause Violet's not in it, sweetie.
She promised she'd be brave and sleep in her own bed tonight.
Oh, yeah? She's a good girl.
You, on the other hand are a bad girl.
So we're going to do bad things.
Aah! Mommy, it's so loud! It's okay, she just tripped the motion sensor.
Password please.
Oh, God, wait.
It's, uh We have three-- one for the guard gate and, uh Honey, what's the password? Oh, Daisy Daisy! Password accepted.
We'll reset the alarm for you now if you're all right, Mr.
and Mrs.
Schaeffer.
Yeah, we're we're all right.
Is that a person? Can you hear us? Perfectly.
All clear? Yeah, it's all clear.
Okay, girls, everything's fine.
So, um, let's go.
Makes you wonder if they're listening all the time, like, if they could hear Oh.
Sex.
Sex, sex More sex.
Hello? Police say you know the guy who killed Zoe from some coffee shop.
Many Russians.
I say hello, nothing more.
Said he had a list of all the lottery winners.
Probably the same guy that broke into my parents' house.
You give him that address, too? I don't understand.
Galina a murderer was in my parents' house.
What, the money I was giving you wasn't enough? It was plenty, Damien, yes.
You don't believe me? I don't know what to believe anymore.
The lawyer who is free, he say confession is best.
It depends on what the truth is.
He say does not matter.
Confession best.
Is this right? Please Damien, what should I do? Hey.
Uh, black, right? About eight sugars? What are you doing here? You're gonna see him, that Russian guy.
He's going to be in the courtroom, 15 feet away from you.
The man who killed my sister.
And I'm going to be right next to you if you like.
If you think it might help.
It would.
Thank you.
Are you ready? Yeah.
All right, let's go.
- Here you go, ma'am.
- Okay, thanks a lot.
Please raise your arms.
Why don't you just go ahead? I'll meet up with you in a second.
- Oh, I can wait.
- No, it's fine.
Just wait outside the courtroom, I'll find you.
That is some gene pool.
Have you met the mother or, uh you getting there next? What do you want, Park? Well, I was hoping to run into you supporting the grieving sister, protecting your investment.
- What are you talking about? - The money.
Did you know that Zoe had a will? No.
Drafted it herself about a year ago.
She gave it to me to finalize.
Yeah.
Don't you want to know what she did with your half of the money? You said it was in some offshore account that nobody could get at; I remember.
No one but Zoe.
While she was alive.
Now that she's dead, it goes into probate and then it goes to her sister Tally, her sole beneficiary.
You know, if she weren't so pretty, I'd say that you knew that already.
But then again, how could you? She doesn't even know it yet.
Why are you telling me all this? Because it's your money, Sean.
That was the deal, right? Yes, that was the deal.
But I don't have any proof.
Exactly.
So you can present a document outlining the verbal agreement you had with Zoe.
Fake document? The only issue is her signature.
All of which you'll handle, right? For a fee.
- Half of your half.
- Mm.
Go to hell.
Do you know the odds of winning the lottery once? I'm offering you a chance to win it twice.
- Our next date? - Ladies' choice.
I knew it.
You didn't like camping.
I did like camping.
And I liked the Ultimate Frisbee tournament, and I loved the free tour of the brewery.
But The thing is, Doug, I'm a girl.
I like to dress up and smell nice.
Dating a poor guy's getting to be a drag? Why don't you just let me treat? I'll take you to some fruity restaurant, some place that you'll love.
Some place that'll cost a fortune.
It will, Maggie.
When it comes to food, I have very expensive tastes.
Yeah, I don't mean to brag or anything, but I did win the lottery.
Ah, yeah.
Look, I know you can afford it.
I'm just not sure my ego can.
I don't want to be some dead-weight guy you drag around.
Okay, that's totally wrong.
But I kind of love that you think that way.
So let's compromise: you come over tomorrow night, I will cook for you.
You wear something nice.
I will make sure the place smells great.
Okay.
That sounds good.
I surprise Ms.
Reida when I appear at her home, her apartment.
When I break in She starts screaming loudly.
And to stop that screaming, I strangled her.
I can't believe I had to learn at a faculty mixer that you're up for tenure.
Well, it's not like I wasn't going to tell you.
It just literally came up.
Why aren't you more excited? It's tenure, baby.
Eh, it's just I don't know.
I mean, is it fair? What about the lottery? You know, if I accept tenure, it means there's one less spot for someone else who really needs it.
I thought you wanted this.
Plus I'm going to be spending a lot of time with Peter, working on the bike business.
I thought you were just helping him get it set up.
I don't know how things are going to work out, Beth.
So you keep saying.
Here, I'll drive.
No, that's all right.
I only had one glass of wine.
I didn't have any in case I'm pregnant.
Which you don't have to pretend to be happy about, either.
Oh, God, this is amazing.
I haven't checked my watch once to clock how much we're paying the sitter.
Maybe you should.
She charges us an extra two dollars an hour since we won the lottery.
- Nuh-uh.
- It's true.
Uh-oh.
Incoming at three o'clock.
Hey, guys.
If you're looking for your bill, forget it.
Your money's no good here.
Dinner's on me.
Really, Sunny? Both burgers? Well, after what you both did for me, taking me in when I left the hospital, and now, what you're doing with that new bike business Your husband's a hero in this town.
Peter, isn't that Gary from the plant? Hey, Gary! Come on over and join us.
Oh, no.
You guys are busy, man.
Come on over.
What's the matter? What's the matter? Listen, Peter, I heard you been crunching numbers to find out how much you can save by laying us all off.
Is it true? Where did you hear that? Janine's mom.
She's the company bookkeeper.
Said she got orders straight from the new owners.
That is not possible.
Yeah, well, tell that to your partner, pal.
Look under the picture.
"When asked about layoffs, co-owner Cameron Walsh said he"- quote "couldn't make any guarantees.
" Nobody's losing their jobs, okay? This doesn't mean anything.
I don't know, Peter.
Maybe you just ought to save that for the bankers, you know? I know who I can trust.
I'm sorry, man.
I keep dreaming about Zoe.
Come in.
I'm gonna get you something to drink.
You want some water? No.
Don't go.
This is the only time I feel okay.
When I'm holding on.
Yes, you are.
You're doing good.
You're holding on.
To you.
Tally I don't want to feel this way anymore.
Tally, this isn't right.
I don't care.
Are you okay? I'm fine.
I got to go.
The sentencing hearing is in an hour.
There's a message.
You know a guy named Dave Park? Dave Park? According to his message, he was Zoe's lawyer.
Yeah, he's, um He's the guy that helped Zoe set up those offshore accounts.
He wants me to meet him.
I'll just squeeze him in between planning a memorial service and sleeping with my dead sister's boyfriend.
Don't do this, okay? It wasn't your fault.
It was mine.
And you didn't even want to.
I did, okay? I did.
I just thought it might be too soon.
You were right.
Hey.
Hey.
Why are you so nice to me? What are you doing? Issuing quotes to the newspaper without talking to me first? What are you talking about? Cameron, we got rumors all over town that we're going to lay off the whole workforce.
Good.
Maybe they'll show us some give when it's time to negotiate pay scales.
Dave, what's going on? I'm a stakeholder, too, Peter.
And I represent half your investors, remember? So, what, you two got together and thought this up before you called the paper? I didn't call them.
They called me.
Peter, relax, okay? We're partners.
No, we're not partners, Cameron.
I'm the majority owner.
My family has everything on the line here.
No one's trying to take your power away, Peter.
What's that supposed to mean? Your investors are watching every move you make, and I'm sure they don't want you using their money to turn this place into a welfare project.
I'm trying to keep people loyal to us.
People that we're going to need.
You need investors.
And if they're worried, you should be, too.
Yeah, how do I find out if someone's been setting accounts up under my name? Well, how about I cancel everything and start over? Uh I married someone I barely know.
Yeah, I know it was stupid.
Thanks.
I got that tip from my dad.
How do I know if somebody's completely ripped me off? I never opened my bank statements.
All right.
Check the signature.
Damn it.
You must be Frankie.
It's the middle of the afternoon.
Why aren't you dressed? My boyfriend dumped me.
- Who are you? - Lou.
Your mother hired me to be your personal bodyguard.
Can we step inside? - Lou, right? - Yeah.
Well, I don't know what my mom told you, but I don't need a bodyguard.
Can you tell me why you answered the door without asking who it was first? I thought you were the delivery guy.
Dead bolt, chain on, use the peephole to check I.
D.
Could you step outside for a sec? I'm 16, Mom.
It's not like I need a baby-sitter.
No, I'm not being difficult.
You're Well, if you're so worried about me being alone, maybe you should come home from Paradise Island.
She wants to talk to you.
Yeah.
Hello.
Yeah.
Well, it's true.
It's true.
Kids can be very difficult.
Uh.
.
yeah.
I'm sure you're doing a great job parenting, Mrs.
McMahon.
It is difficult on your own.
Okay.
Well, we're all set here, so don't you worry.
Bye-bye.
There's no fire escape here, is there? I don't think so.
So we'll barbecue on the roof.
Hello? Violet? Olly olly oxen free! Violet.
- Mommy? - Violet? - Mommy! - Honey, what are you doing? Playing hide-and-seek.
Daisy was supposed to come and find me, but there are too many rooms.
Well, I just saw her playing upstairs in her room.
How long ago? So long ago.
I'm hungry.
- Well, honey, where are you? - In the room that's yellow.
Well, is it a bedroom, a sitting room or a walk-in closet? Um there's shoes.
Mama, are these yours? I don't know, honey.
I can't see.
Just stay put.
I'm coming for you, okay? Okay.
Recognize the handwriting? It was first week.
I thought maybe you're not honest man.
I'm not honest? You lied to me about everything.
No.
Not true.
My family need money.
Not for me.
I swear.
I gave you an extra $10,000.
I would have given you so much more.
How do I know that? Please.
The one time, that is all.
Maybe it was.
Maybe it wasn't.
But it sure as hell is going to be the last time.
Hey.
Am I late? - No, your timing's perfect.
- Oh, good.
You know why that awyer, Park, was trying to get in touch with me? No, no.
I'm inheriting Zoe's money.
All of it.
Really? Wow.
Are Are you? You're kidding me.
You didn't know? I didn't, but, you know, it kind of makes sense.
Yeah, I'm sure it does.
So does your hanging around me, taking care of me and other things.
You knew about the money.
Park told me you'd been asking, how you found him at the courthouse.
Hold on a second.
He found me.
I must have seemed like such an easy mark.
All you had to do was tell me the truth.
You knew about the money.
Tally, I knew you inherited the money, but it's my money.
Zoe and I had an agreement, okay? Do I want my half? Yes.
But that's not what I wanted from you.
I'll never know if that's true, and asking the question makes me sick.
Hey.
Hey, do me a favor.
Close the door, will you? Why did I start this company? I mean, you said it.
Take a vacation.
Live life.
Be free.
Why didn't I listen to you? Because you wanted to challenge yourself.
You wanted to make money about a beginning instead of an end.
The beginning of what, though? With Park and his investors, I got more bosses now than when I worked at the loading dock.
I'm not going to take their money.
I'll put my own money in.
Peter, you're already sunk in millions.
I got more.
Some.
Not a lot.
Enough to carry us.
This is a business venture.
There's no guarantee.
You could lose everything.
I hear that from Nina all the time.
Well, how is she going to feel about this? Make her a nervous wreck.
She doesn't need to know.
There you go.
I thought you were teaching me self-defense? That's what we're doing.
Eat your dog.
It's part of the lesson.
Look over there.
All smiles and sunshine? Now, check them out.
See the attitude, the game faces? They got their armor on, like knights going to battle.
See, in New York, it is always game on.
You don't give anyone your trust until they earn it.
Okay? Okay.
Got it.
With marketing and building design, Peter's on top of it.
But anything to do with the with the workers-- um, benefits, hours, salary-- it's like he stops being the boss, and he goes back to being one of them.
Yeah, well, he's worked with those people for years, and he raised enough money to keep everyone on, didn't he? I'm just saying, stay on top of it, and draw him out, give him some support.
He could use it.
Now I have a, um, a favor to ask you.
Could you tell me this on the phone, Cameron? We don't have to meet to talk about this.
Nina, we're friends.
You asked me to do something for you, I did it.
I mean, what do you think, I'm exaggerating things so I can steal some time with you? I don't know.
You have no idea how hard I work to keep you happy, and keep your marriage together when mine's falling apart.
What do you mean? It's like I'm married, but, but I'm not really Beth's husband.
You know, 'cause I'm thinking about my future with you.
Cameron Cameron, I told you that's not going to happen.
Probably not, but I can't let go of the possibility that it might, and I have to tell her.
Tell her what? About me? She has a right to know that what's missing isn't her.
That there's nothing she could have done and there's nothing she did wrong.
Yeah, but what about what we've done? What have we done? We, we kissed once.
And we met in a park, talked a couple times.
- She doesn't need to know that.
- Yeah, but she will.
And she'll she'll want to know how far things have gone and when.
And you'll either end up with more half-truths or lies.
Or you'll end up telling her everything.
You're worried about your marriage.
Yeah, of course I am.
Cameron, if you want to make a life choice, fine.
But just do it without destroying the people who love you.
Hey, Park, can I talk to you for a second? - Sean, how's it going? - Oh, I think you know.
You lied to Tally about the money.
I said it was hers and that you wanted it.
Well, you do want it, don't you? Yes, but I wasn't hounding you about it.
Let's not get into semantics.
You're here for a reason.
Am I right? I won $20 million and I can't even pay my rent.
You're preaching to the choir, my friend.
I'm on your side.
Well, I don't want you on my side, okay? - Just get me my half.
- I'll draw up the document.
Now, should I date it the day of the win? The day after? Whatever.
Either one works for me.
Now I do, too.
See how easy that was? I made us a tee time for miniature golf tomorrow.
I got to warn you, I'm kind of a prodigy.
Doug, we've been out like every night this week.
Don't you have work? I only work when I feel like it.
That's a great thing about catering.
You know, Doug, you're kind of meeting me at a, um, at a weird time in my life.
I mean, I used to work for a living, you know? I worked a lot.
It was important to me, you know? - You were saying? - Um, this shirt is wet.
I know.
It's drying.
On your guitar? Guitar/drying rack.
Quick, the sauce is peaking.
Taste this.
Wow, that is fantastic.
Madame est servie.
You like it? It's wild.
Only comes through here this time of year.
I had to fight this Moroccan chef for the last filet.
I gave him some couscous.
I can't believe you're only in catering.
You should be working at a five-star restaurant.
Please, the only thing worse than working for some egotistical chef is working for a pretentious restaurant owner.
Okay, so, Doug, I can't help but wonder what is it that you want to do with your life.
I'm doing it.
I'm living my life.
What are you doing? I'm spending money.
Taking a break.
But I kinda do miss working, you know? I miss having a reason to get up out of bed every morning, a place to go.
- A passion.
- Yes, exactly, a passion.
- I have a passion.
- You do? Yeah? Uh, yeah, is, is Frankie home? - Who are you? - Um Hey.
Um, it's okay, Lou.
I know this guy.
Is, is there someplace we could talk? So, uh, I brought you something.
Corn Nuts? I know they're half gone, but I kinda got hungry on the plane.
It doesn't matter.
It's fine.
Yeah, that was weak.
Uh Frankie, I I can't stop thinking about you.
I mean, everything about you.
How we met at the convenience store Okay, you know we go to the same high school, right? We went Right, but I mean, we never, you know, officially met.
But I was around.
I was always around, and you never noticed me.
It was a big school.
And even when you did, when it felt to me like we were the only two people in the world, lottery freaks, I was still invisible.
- That's not true.
- Compared to Galina.
- Frankie - You picked her.
I was right there, and you picked someone else, okay? So I don't get it.
What changed your mind? She, she just wasn't who I thought she was, okay? Look, Frankie, I messed up.
I know that.
It's, it's the money, it's being on my own.
I feel like I'm floating in a bad way.
- Just unattached.
- You're anything but.
You're married, Damien.
Go back home to your wife.
That's good.
Keep your arm around.
You going to be okay? Honestly? I don't know.
It gets easier with practice.
Lou, you're killing me.
Come on.
Come on.
You got it.
You're going to sink it.
Whoa! Lou, you were right.
I feel much better.
I'm just worried about all the money we're putting into this business.
- You don't trust me.
- That's not true, Peter.
You cannot have it both ways, Nina.
You don't get to be the supportive wife and second-guess every decision I make.
You make it sound like I don't have any faith in you.
It's not just that.
You know, all these fights lately.
Your mood toward me, toward everything.
What mood? You haven't been happy, really happy, since we won.
Now, why would? Peter, I'm not unhappy.
I was thrilled when we won.
You're being weird.
Not just to me, everybody.
I mean, Cameron, Beth.
I thought you'd be happy when we won.
That way they could stay in town.
I'm not giving our money away to all the guys down at the factory.
We need a cash infusion, and I am looking for it.
- I'm not a fool.
- I never said you were.
You said everything but.
- Hey.
- Great set, man.
Wow.
That set was epic.
Mm-hmm.
What'd you think? You hated it.
I didn't hate it.
Come on, Maggie.
What? Okay, when I was a little girl, I wanted to be a fairy princess when I grew up.
And then one day my mother pointed out to me that I was always the one to take care of the pets when they were sick.
It's like I had a gift.
But the universe had to give me a little nudge.
I'm a nurse because I was always a nurse.
Well, you're not a nurse anymore.
You're a millionaire.
Okay, Doug, the point is, is that I feel like you and food, you're like this magic thing and you're missing it because it's just right underneath your nose.
You really thought we were that bad? No, I just think that your cooking is that good.
Hi.
Look what I found.
- My dissertation.
- Uh-huh.
What are you reading that for? Well, I'm a little biased, but, um, I'd give you tenure.
- Beth, I turned it down.
- 'Cause of the lottery? I did it to protect you us from embarrassment.
I'm sorry, Beth.
I can't tell you how sorry I am.
Say it.
I slept with someone at a seminar in Italy.
She was a grad student.
- Oh, God.
- Beth No.
That girl in all the pictures? That girl in all the group photos? The one with the long, curly hair? "Who's that, Cameron?" "Oh, it's no one, Beth.
" "The weather sucks, Beth.
Don't bother coming, Beth"! 'Cause I was an associate professor and she was a grad student A married associate professor.
It was wrong on so many levels.
She pressing some kind of charges? No.
So this would never have come out.
I wanted you to know that what's wrong in our marriage isn't you.
It's me.
I screwed up.
What you're telling me-- what you're saying you did-- could destroy us.
Do you realize that? Yeah, I do.
Where are the girls? Daisy's upstairs playing, and Violet's out riding her bike.
This thing is so high-tech.
Can I just get a regular cup of coffee? Mr.
and Mrs.
Schaeffer, we need you at the security kiosk.
We have your daughter in custody.
She was riding outside of approved cycling areas.
You're kidding, right? She's eight years old.
I'm going to need you to initial here.
Also here, here and here.
You sure this is enough? Maybe you want to fingerprint her.
Parents get upset sometimes when we take their children in.
But please know, we do it for everyone's good.
Their safety, your liability.
There's a lot of high-net-worth individuals driving their cars in this area.
Yeah, thanks.
No jail time, just a severe warning.
No laughing, no playing and no running.
I'm sorry I'm a criminal.
Honey, don't be sorry.
You didn't do anything wrong.
This place is wrong.
It's making us do things, say things.
That aren't us? Let's get out of here.
Let's go home.
- What do you mean? - Move back.
You mean to our real home? - Better believe it.
- Yes.
Yay, we're going home! Thank you.
Where you going? To the gym.
Did you get any sleep? About 5 minutes worth.
Beth where are we? Do you throw a marriage away after one night? One mistake? I don't know.
Something you forgot? I just wanna talk.
Can I come in? Yeah.
So I guess Park got in toucch with you, huh? He did before I flew to Wisconsin for Zoe's memorial service.
I told you that.
I didn't realize that you were doing the services so fast.
I should have told you.
Maybe you would have liked to be there.
Or maybe not.
My parents released like a thousand doves, it was so cheesy.
I kept thinking "this is not what Zoe would have wanted".
I don't just mean these stupid bibrds, I mean me sleeping with you.
If she were here, it wouldn't have happened.
I don't think that it matters.
But her word does.
You guys made a deal about the lottery money.
The least I can do is honor it.
instead of punishing you for thinking maybe you're using me.
- Tally, that's not what - Just don't, okay? I'm not gonna change my mind so you don't need to give it to me.
Okay.
So what are you gonna do now? Buy a car, travel, do charity, whatever it is millionaires do.
I just hope something good comes of all that.
Maybe something already has.
What is this? So, um What do you think? what are we doing here? I'm gonna buy it.
You're gonna run a restaurant? No.
You are.
I mean, you know, if you want the job.
You'd be my boss? More like partners.
I mean, I don't know anything about the restaurant industry.
But I'm just trying to get involved with something again like a job or a business.
So partners but it's all your money and every choice I'd have to run by you? I guess.
Every step of the way? Every day? We'd be in constant contact? I mean if we wanted to be.
You're my attorney, I don't care about my emancipated minor status.
I wanna divorce.
I understand but I seriously think you should No, as soon as humanly possible, okay? I want Galina out of my life.
Okay, fine, she's out of your life.
Did you know she's out of jail? You bought her off? I didn't have to.
The guy that killed that poor girl turns out he didn't know Galina.
Just overheard her talking and Talking about what? The lottery winners.
Bragging about how proud she was to be married to one.
I don't understand.
Neither did he.
Seems they were some translation problems when the cops were questioning him.
- What are you loooking for? - Galina.
Galina's innocent.
She's in the clear.
She brought her clothes back.
Anyway, we'll get started on those papers first thing tomorrow.
- Maybe she's coming back.
- "I thank for everything.
" No, she's gone.
Come on, Peter, you saved our jobs, just admit it.
Listen, I'm gonna say who it is so you guys just quit asking.
Yeah, because it's him.
Peter came up with the extra cash.
Admit it, you're the white knight.
He is definitely not me, okay? I found an investor.
Well, he'd better get that place up and running because if my wife can't stand it if I'm on vacation paid or otherwise.
I should have never doubted you, buddy.
I'm gonna get a soda.
Do you want something? No, I'm good.
Thanks.
Hey.
Hey.
How's everything going? I don't know.
But don't worry.
whatever happened between us, I'm leaving you out of it.
I don't know what to say.
I do.
Congratulations.
For what? For helping him help everyone.
He did this all on his own.
Despite me.
I never knew a guy with so many friends.
He deserves it.
So do you.
- I don't know.
- I do.
I always did.
Nina, you don't have Cameron, you just said it, he could have anyone as a best friend.
He picked you.
I thought that we were gonna tell everybody that I'm the What's it called? Yeah, the white knight.
Yeah, the mystery investor babe.
Me.
Shouldn't everyone know? I'll make an announcement when the time is right.
I promise.
Okay.
So it's a secret then, right? A secret that's only for you and me.
Hey.
I'm still working on the document.
Relax.
You'll get your money.
Forget it, I don't need it.
The sister is giving you the money.
Wow.
For a guy who says he doesn't want anything, you sure got a way of getting what you want.
I'll give you a 100K for the effort.
You're kidding, right? No, the deal is still the same, it's 50/50.
Unless you want those witnesses in Buffalo to start changing their testimony.
Wait, hold on a sec.
Are you blackmailing me? The blackmailer.
Wow, crime is insidious, isn't it? You're gonna flip witnesses that you bought? And you think I'm gonna go down without taking you with me? You're gonna get disbarred.
Worse than that I suspect.
We'll both end up in prison slinging mac and cheese in the cafetaria.
Or you can give me the money, we both win.
You think about it.
You must think I'm blind.
I'm not.
I just didn't see it.
Since the lottery, I've been talking about houses and babies.
Things married people want.
You wanted that ticket to buy used freedom.
Beth, I want us to be happy.
I thought we were.
Even ths morning wondering if our marriage was worth saving.
Like I had a choice.
When you've already made yours.
Beth, don't do this.
That's the biggest lie of all.
You want me to do this.
That's why you told me about the affair.
Beth Pull the car over.
Come on, it's late and it's dark.
Pull the car over.
Beth, I don't know what to say.
Just to be clear, so I don't wake up tomorrow or 15 years from now thinking I was nuts.
I want you to say it to me.
- Beth - Not my name.
Hers.
Nina.
At least, we're done pretending it's about some girl in Italy.
No, just Beth, wait a minute.
Why not us? We should buy it.
We swap out the machinery, build high-end racing bikes like we always said.
Look, we can work out a percentage deal, it's not a problem.
You mean, you would own part of the company? I want in if the door's still open.
What'd I do without you, huh? Hey, do you happen to have a business card by any chance? In case you want to call about anything.
Well, you got the money.
Are you happy? I guess it's only a million less than I should have, but same with you.
I would give everything I have to keep you in my life.
He gave you away for $200,000.
Frankie, I'm not the answer here.
You need to find someone else.
I chose to marry you 'cause I love you.
And I know we're on shaky ground.
But a baby won't help that.
Zoe's dead.
Some Russian confessed to killing Zoe.
- Police! Don't move! - Hands on your head! Don't move! Your wife's being arrested in connection with the death of Zoe Reida.
- Do we need a lawyer? - Damien! Which one of these buttons dims the lights? You got me.
Driveway gate, the espresso machine, the new neighbors I don't know how to work any of them.
This bed, though, huh? It's as big as our old house.
It just feels that way 'cause Violet's not in it, sweetie.
She promised she'd be brave and sleep in her own bed tonight.
Oh, yeah? She's a good girl.
You, on the other hand are a bad girl.
So we're going to do bad things.
Aah! Mommy, it's so loud! It's okay, she just tripped the motion sensor.
Password please.
Oh, God, wait.
It's, uh We have three-- one for the guard gate and, uh Honey, what's the password? Oh, Daisy Daisy! Password accepted.
We'll reset the alarm for you now if you're all right, Mr.
and Mrs.
Schaeffer.
Yeah, we're we're all right.
Is that a person? Can you hear us? Perfectly.
All clear? Yeah, it's all clear.
Okay, girls, everything's fine.
So, um, let's go.
Makes you wonder if they're listening all the time, like, if they could hear Oh.
Sex.
Sex, sex More sex.
Hello? Police say you know the guy who killed Zoe from some coffee shop.
Many Russians.
I say hello, nothing more.
Said he had a list of all the lottery winners.
Probably the same guy that broke into my parents' house.
You give him that address, too? I don't understand.
Galina a murderer was in my parents' house.
What, the money I was giving you wasn't enough? It was plenty, Damien, yes.
You don't believe me? I don't know what to believe anymore.
The lawyer who is free, he say confession is best.
It depends on what the truth is.
He say does not matter.
Confession best.
Is this right? Please Damien, what should I do? Hey.
Uh, black, right? About eight sugars? What are you doing here? You're gonna see him, that Russian guy.
He's going to be in the courtroom, 15 feet away from you.
The man who killed my sister.
And I'm going to be right next to you if you like.
If you think it might help.
It would.
Thank you.
Are you ready? Yeah.
All right, let's go.
- Here you go, ma'am.
- Okay, thanks a lot.
Please raise your arms.
Why don't you just go ahead? I'll meet up with you in a second.
- Oh, I can wait.
- No, it's fine.
Just wait outside the courtroom, I'll find you.
That is some gene pool.
Have you met the mother or, uh you getting there next? What do you want, Park? Well, I was hoping to run into you supporting the grieving sister, protecting your investment.
- What are you talking about? - The money.
Did you know that Zoe had a will? No.
Drafted it herself about a year ago.
She gave it to me to finalize.
Yeah.
Don't you want to know what she did with your half of the money? You said it was in some offshore account that nobody could get at; I remember.
No one but Zoe.
While she was alive.
Now that she's dead, it goes into probate and then it goes to her sister Tally, her sole beneficiary.
You know, if she weren't so pretty, I'd say that you knew that already.
But then again, how could you? She doesn't even know it yet.
Why are you telling me all this? Because it's your money, Sean.
That was the deal, right? Yes, that was the deal.
But I don't have any proof.
Exactly.
So you can present a document outlining the verbal agreement you had with Zoe.
Fake document? The only issue is her signature.
All of which you'll handle, right? For a fee.
- Half of your half.
- Mm.
Go to hell.
Do you know the odds of winning the lottery once? I'm offering you a chance to win it twice.
- Our next date? - Ladies' choice.
I knew it.
You didn't like camping.
I did like camping.
And I liked the Ultimate Frisbee tournament, and I loved the free tour of the brewery.
But The thing is, Doug, I'm a girl.
I like to dress up and smell nice.
Dating a poor guy's getting to be a drag? Why don't you just let me treat? I'll take you to some fruity restaurant, some place that you'll love.
Some place that'll cost a fortune.
It will, Maggie.
When it comes to food, I have very expensive tastes.
Yeah, I don't mean to brag or anything, but I did win the lottery.
Ah, yeah.
Look, I know you can afford it.
I'm just not sure my ego can.
I don't want to be some dead-weight guy you drag around.
Okay, that's totally wrong.
But I kind of love that you think that way.
So let's compromise: you come over tomorrow night, I will cook for you.
You wear something nice.
I will make sure the place smells great.
Okay.
That sounds good.
I surprise Ms.
Reida when I appear at her home, her apartment.
When I break in She starts screaming loudly.
And to stop that screaming, I strangled her.
I can't believe I had to learn at a faculty mixer that you're up for tenure.
Well, it's not like I wasn't going to tell you.
It just literally came up.
Why aren't you more excited? It's tenure, baby.
Eh, it's just I don't know.
I mean, is it fair? What about the lottery? You know, if I accept tenure, it means there's one less spot for someone else who really needs it.
I thought you wanted this.
Plus I'm going to be spending a lot of time with Peter, working on the bike business.
I thought you were just helping him get it set up.
I don't know how things are going to work out, Beth.
So you keep saying.
Here, I'll drive.
No, that's all right.
I only had one glass of wine.
I didn't have any in case I'm pregnant.
Which you don't have to pretend to be happy about, either.
Oh, God, this is amazing.
I haven't checked my watch once to clock how much we're paying the sitter.
Maybe you should.
She charges us an extra two dollars an hour since we won the lottery.
- Nuh-uh.
- It's true.
Uh-oh.
Incoming at three o'clock.
Hey, guys.
If you're looking for your bill, forget it.
Your money's no good here.
Dinner's on me.
Really, Sunny? Both burgers? Well, after what you both did for me, taking me in when I left the hospital, and now, what you're doing with that new bike business Your husband's a hero in this town.
Peter, isn't that Gary from the plant? Hey, Gary! Come on over and join us.
Oh, no.
You guys are busy, man.
Come on over.
What's the matter? What's the matter? Listen, Peter, I heard you been crunching numbers to find out how much you can save by laying us all off.
Is it true? Where did you hear that? Janine's mom.
She's the company bookkeeper.
Said she got orders straight from the new owners.
That is not possible.
Yeah, well, tell that to your partner, pal.
Look under the picture.
"When asked about layoffs, co-owner Cameron Walsh said he"- quote "couldn't make any guarantees.
" Nobody's losing their jobs, okay? This doesn't mean anything.
I don't know, Peter.
Maybe you just ought to save that for the bankers, you know? I know who I can trust.
I'm sorry, man.
I keep dreaming about Zoe.
Come in.
I'm gonna get you something to drink.
You want some water? No.
Don't go.
This is the only time I feel okay.
When I'm holding on.
Yes, you are.
You're doing good.
You're holding on.
To you.
Tally I don't want to feel this way anymore.
Tally, this isn't right.
I don't care.
Are you okay? I'm fine.
I got to go.
The sentencing hearing is in an hour.
There's a message.
You know a guy named Dave Park? Dave Park? According to his message, he was Zoe's lawyer.
Yeah, he's, um He's the guy that helped Zoe set up those offshore accounts.
He wants me to meet him.
I'll just squeeze him in between planning a memorial service and sleeping with my dead sister's boyfriend.
Don't do this, okay? It wasn't your fault.
It was mine.
And you didn't even want to.
I did, okay? I did.
I just thought it might be too soon.
You were right.
Hey.
Hey.
Why are you so nice to me? What are you doing? Issuing quotes to the newspaper without talking to me first? What are you talking about? Cameron, we got rumors all over town that we're going to lay off the whole workforce.
Good.
Maybe they'll show us some give when it's time to negotiate pay scales.
Dave, what's going on? I'm a stakeholder, too, Peter.
And I represent half your investors, remember? So, what, you two got together and thought this up before you called the paper? I didn't call them.
They called me.
Peter, relax, okay? We're partners.
No, we're not partners, Cameron.
I'm the majority owner.
My family has everything on the line here.
No one's trying to take your power away, Peter.
What's that supposed to mean? Your investors are watching every move you make, and I'm sure they don't want you using their money to turn this place into a welfare project.
I'm trying to keep people loyal to us.
People that we're going to need.
You need investors.
And if they're worried, you should be, too.
Yeah, how do I find out if someone's been setting accounts up under my name? Well, how about I cancel everything and start over? Uh I married someone I barely know.
Yeah, I know it was stupid.
Thanks.
I got that tip from my dad.
How do I know if somebody's completely ripped me off? I never opened my bank statements.
All right.
Check the signature.
Damn it.
You must be Frankie.
It's the middle of the afternoon.
Why aren't you dressed? My boyfriend dumped me.
- Who are you? - Lou.
Your mother hired me to be your personal bodyguard.
Can we step inside? - Lou, right? - Yeah.
Well, I don't know what my mom told you, but I don't need a bodyguard.
Can you tell me why you answered the door without asking who it was first? I thought you were the delivery guy.
Dead bolt, chain on, use the peephole to check I.
D.
Could you step outside for a sec? I'm 16, Mom.
It's not like I need a baby-sitter.
No, I'm not being difficult.
You're Well, if you're so worried about me being alone, maybe you should come home from Paradise Island.
She wants to talk to you.
Yeah.
Hello.
Yeah.
Well, it's true.
It's true.
Kids can be very difficult.
Uh.
.
yeah.
I'm sure you're doing a great job parenting, Mrs.
McMahon.
It is difficult on your own.
Okay.
Well, we're all set here, so don't you worry.
Bye-bye.
There's no fire escape here, is there? I don't think so.
So we'll barbecue on the roof.
Hello? Violet? Olly olly oxen free! Violet.
- Mommy? - Violet? - Mommy! - Honey, what are you doing? Playing hide-and-seek.
Daisy was supposed to come and find me, but there are too many rooms.
Well, I just saw her playing upstairs in her room.
How long ago? So long ago.
I'm hungry.
- Well, honey, where are you? - In the room that's yellow.
Well, is it a bedroom, a sitting room or a walk-in closet? Um there's shoes.
Mama, are these yours? I don't know, honey.
I can't see.
Just stay put.
I'm coming for you, okay? Okay.
Recognize the handwriting? It was first week.
I thought maybe you're not honest man.
I'm not honest? You lied to me about everything.
No.
Not true.
My family need money.
Not for me.
I swear.
I gave you an extra $10,000.
I would have given you so much more.
How do I know that? Please.
The one time, that is all.
Maybe it was.
Maybe it wasn't.
But it sure as hell is going to be the last time.
Hey.
Am I late? - No, your timing's perfect.
- Oh, good.
You know why that awyer, Park, was trying to get in touch with me? No, no.
I'm inheriting Zoe's money.
All of it.
Really? Wow.
Are Are you? You're kidding me.
You didn't know? I didn't, but, you know, it kind of makes sense.
Yeah, I'm sure it does.
So does your hanging around me, taking care of me and other things.
You knew about the money.
Park told me you'd been asking, how you found him at the courthouse.
Hold on a second.
He found me.
I must have seemed like such an easy mark.
All you had to do was tell me the truth.
You knew about the money.
Tally, I knew you inherited the money, but it's my money.
Zoe and I had an agreement, okay? Do I want my half? Yes.
But that's not what I wanted from you.
I'll never know if that's true, and asking the question makes me sick.
Hey.
Hey, do me a favor.
Close the door, will you? Why did I start this company? I mean, you said it.
Take a vacation.
Live life.
Be free.
Why didn't I listen to you? Because you wanted to challenge yourself.
You wanted to make money about a beginning instead of an end.
The beginning of what, though? With Park and his investors, I got more bosses now than when I worked at the loading dock.
I'm not going to take their money.
I'll put my own money in.
Peter, you're already sunk in millions.
I got more.
Some.
Not a lot.
Enough to carry us.
This is a business venture.
There's no guarantee.
You could lose everything.
I hear that from Nina all the time.
Well, how is she going to feel about this? Make her a nervous wreck.
She doesn't need to know.
There you go.
I thought you were teaching me self-defense? That's what we're doing.
Eat your dog.
It's part of the lesson.
Look over there.
All smiles and sunshine? Now, check them out.
See the attitude, the game faces? They got their armor on, like knights going to battle.
See, in New York, it is always game on.
You don't give anyone your trust until they earn it.
Okay? Okay.
Got it.
With marketing and building design, Peter's on top of it.
But anything to do with the with the workers-- um, benefits, hours, salary-- it's like he stops being the boss, and he goes back to being one of them.
Yeah, well, he's worked with those people for years, and he raised enough money to keep everyone on, didn't he? I'm just saying, stay on top of it, and draw him out, give him some support.
He could use it.
Now I have a, um, a favor to ask you.
Could you tell me this on the phone, Cameron? We don't have to meet to talk about this.
Nina, we're friends.
You asked me to do something for you, I did it.
I mean, what do you think, I'm exaggerating things so I can steal some time with you? I don't know.
You have no idea how hard I work to keep you happy, and keep your marriage together when mine's falling apart.
What do you mean? It's like I'm married, but, but I'm not really Beth's husband.
You know, 'cause I'm thinking about my future with you.
Cameron Cameron, I told you that's not going to happen.
Probably not, but I can't let go of the possibility that it might, and I have to tell her.
Tell her what? About me? She has a right to know that what's missing isn't her.
That there's nothing she could have done and there's nothing she did wrong.
Yeah, but what about what we've done? What have we done? We, we kissed once.
And we met in a park, talked a couple times.
- She doesn't need to know that.
- Yeah, but she will.
And she'll she'll want to know how far things have gone and when.
And you'll either end up with more half-truths or lies.
Or you'll end up telling her everything.
You're worried about your marriage.
Yeah, of course I am.
Cameron, if you want to make a life choice, fine.
But just do it without destroying the people who love you.
Hey, Park, can I talk to you for a second? - Sean, how's it going? - Oh, I think you know.
You lied to Tally about the money.
I said it was hers and that you wanted it.
Well, you do want it, don't you? Yes, but I wasn't hounding you about it.
Let's not get into semantics.
You're here for a reason.
Am I right? I won $20 million and I can't even pay my rent.
You're preaching to the choir, my friend.
I'm on your side.
Well, I don't want you on my side, okay? - Just get me my half.
- I'll draw up the document.
Now, should I date it the day of the win? The day after? Whatever.
Either one works for me.
Now I do, too.
See how easy that was? I made us a tee time for miniature golf tomorrow.
I got to warn you, I'm kind of a prodigy.
Doug, we've been out like every night this week.
Don't you have work? I only work when I feel like it.
That's a great thing about catering.
You know, Doug, you're kind of meeting me at a, um, at a weird time in my life.
I mean, I used to work for a living, you know? I worked a lot.
It was important to me, you know? - You were saying? - Um, this shirt is wet.
I know.
It's drying.
On your guitar? Guitar/drying rack.
Quick, the sauce is peaking.
Taste this.
Wow, that is fantastic.
Madame est servie.
You like it? It's wild.
Only comes through here this time of year.
I had to fight this Moroccan chef for the last filet.
I gave him some couscous.
I can't believe you're only in catering.
You should be working at a five-star restaurant.
Please, the only thing worse than working for some egotistical chef is working for a pretentious restaurant owner.
Okay, so, Doug, I can't help but wonder what is it that you want to do with your life.
I'm doing it.
I'm living my life.
What are you doing? I'm spending money.
Taking a break.
But I kinda do miss working, you know? I miss having a reason to get up out of bed every morning, a place to go.
- A passion.
- Yes, exactly, a passion.
- I have a passion.
- You do? Yeah? Uh, yeah, is, is Frankie home? - Who are you? - Um Hey.
Um, it's okay, Lou.
I know this guy.
Is, is there someplace we could talk? So, uh, I brought you something.
Corn Nuts? I know they're half gone, but I kinda got hungry on the plane.
It doesn't matter.
It's fine.
Yeah, that was weak.
Uh Frankie, I I can't stop thinking about you.
I mean, everything about you.
How we met at the convenience store Okay, you know we go to the same high school, right? We went Right, but I mean, we never, you know, officially met.
But I was around.
I was always around, and you never noticed me.
It was a big school.
And even when you did, when it felt to me like we were the only two people in the world, lottery freaks, I was still invisible.
- That's not true.
- Compared to Galina.
- Frankie - You picked her.
I was right there, and you picked someone else, okay? So I don't get it.
What changed your mind? She, she just wasn't who I thought she was, okay? Look, Frankie, I messed up.
I know that.
It's, it's the money, it's being on my own.
I feel like I'm floating in a bad way.
- Just unattached.
- You're anything but.
You're married, Damien.
Go back home to your wife.
That's good.
Keep your arm around.
You going to be okay? Honestly? I don't know.
It gets easier with practice.
Lou, you're killing me.
Come on.
Come on.
You got it.
You're going to sink it.
Whoa! Lou, you were right.
I feel much better.
I'm just worried about all the money we're putting into this business.
- You don't trust me.
- That's not true, Peter.
You cannot have it both ways, Nina.
You don't get to be the supportive wife and second-guess every decision I make.
You make it sound like I don't have any faith in you.
It's not just that.
You know, all these fights lately.
Your mood toward me, toward everything.
What mood? You haven't been happy, really happy, since we won.
Now, why would? Peter, I'm not unhappy.
I was thrilled when we won.
You're being weird.
Not just to me, everybody.
I mean, Cameron, Beth.
I thought you'd be happy when we won.
That way they could stay in town.
I'm not giving our money away to all the guys down at the factory.
We need a cash infusion, and I am looking for it.
- I'm not a fool.
- I never said you were.
You said everything but.
- Hey.
- Great set, man.
Wow.
That set was epic.
Mm-hmm.
What'd you think? You hated it.
I didn't hate it.
Come on, Maggie.
What? Okay, when I was a little girl, I wanted to be a fairy princess when I grew up.
And then one day my mother pointed out to me that I was always the one to take care of the pets when they were sick.
It's like I had a gift.
But the universe had to give me a little nudge.
I'm a nurse because I was always a nurse.
Well, you're not a nurse anymore.
You're a millionaire.
Okay, Doug, the point is, is that I feel like you and food, you're like this magic thing and you're missing it because it's just right underneath your nose.
You really thought we were that bad? No, I just think that your cooking is that good.
Hi.
Look what I found.
- My dissertation.
- Uh-huh.
What are you reading that for? Well, I'm a little biased, but, um, I'd give you tenure.
- Beth, I turned it down.
- 'Cause of the lottery? I did it to protect you us from embarrassment.
I'm sorry, Beth.
I can't tell you how sorry I am.
Say it.
I slept with someone at a seminar in Italy.
She was a grad student.
- Oh, God.
- Beth No.
That girl in all the pictures? That girl in all the group photos? The one with the long, curly hair? "Who's that, Cameron?" "Oh, it's no one, Beth.
" "The weather sucks, Beth.
Don't bother coming, Beth"! 'Cause I was an associate professor and she was a grad student A married associate professor.
It was wrong on so many levels.
She pressing some kind of charges? No.
So this would never have come out.
I wanted you to know that what's wrong in our marriage isn't you.
It's me.
I screwed up.
What you're telling me-- what you're saying you did-- could destroy us.
Do you realize that? Yeah, I do.
Where are the girls? Daisy's upstairs playing, and Violet's out riding her bike.
This thing is so high-tech.
Can I just get a regular cup of coffee? Mr.
and Mrs.
Schaeffer, we need you at the security kiosk.
We have your daughter in custody.
She was riding outside of approved cycling areas.
You're kidding, right? She's eight years old.
I'm going to need you to initial here.
Also here, here and here.
You sure this is enough? Maybe you want to fingerprint her.
Parents get upset sometimes when we take their children in.
But please know, we do it for everyone's good.
Their safety, your liability.
There's a lot of high-net-worth individuals driving their cars in this area.
Yeah, thanks.
No jail time, just a severe warning.
No laughing, no playing and no running.
I'm sorry I'm a criminal.
Honey, don't be sorry.
You didn't do anything wrong.
This place is wrong.
It's making us do things, say things.
That aren't us? Let's get out of here.
Let's go home.
- What do you mean? - Move back.
You mean to our real home? - Better believe it.
- Yes.
Yay, we're going home! Thank you.
Where you going? To the gym.
Did you get any sleep? About 5 minutes worth.
Beth where are we? Do you throw a marriage away after one night? One mistake? I don't know.
Something you forgot? I just wanna talk.
Can I come in? Yeah.
So I guess Park got in toucch with you, huh? He did before I flew to Wisconsin for Zoe's memorial service.
I told you that.
I didn't realize that you were doing the services so fast.
I should have told you.
Maybe you would have liked to be there.
Or maybe not.
My parents released like a thousand doves, it was so cheesy.
I kept thinking "this is not what Zoe would have wanted".
I don't just mean these stupid bibrds, I mean me sleeping with you.
If she were here, it wouldn't have happened.
I don't think that it matters.
But her word does.
You guys made a deal about the lottery money.
The least I can do is honor it.
instead of punishing you for thinking maybe you're using me.
- Tally, that's not what - Just don't, okay? I'm not gonna change my mind so you don't need to give it to me.
Okay.
So what are you gonna do now? Buy a car, travel, do charity, whatever it is millionaires do.
I just hope something good comes of all that.
Maybe something already has.
What is this? So, um What do you think? what are we doing here? I'm gonna buy it.
You're gonna run a restaurant? No.
You are.
I mean, you know, if you want the job.
You'd be my boss? More like partners.
I mean, I don't know anything about the restaurant industry.
But I'm just trying to get involved with something again like a job or a business.
So partners but it's all your money and every choice I'd have to run by you? I guess.
Every step of the way? Every day? We'd be in constant contact? I mean if we wanted to be.
You're my attorney, I don't care about my emancipated minor status.
I wanna divorce.
I understand but I seriously think you should No, as soon as humanly possible, okay? I want Galina out of my life.
Okay, fine, she's out of your life.
Did you know she's out of jail? You bought her off? I didn't have to.
The guy that killed that poor girl turns out he didn't know Galina.
Just overheard her talking and Talking about what? The lottery winners.
Bragging about how proud she was to be married to one.
I don't understand.
Neither did he.
Seems they were some translation problems when the cops were questioning him.
- What are you loooking for? - Galina.
Galina's innocent.
She's in the clear.
She brought her clothes back.
Anyway, we'll get started on those papers first thing tomorrow.
- Maybe she's coming back.
- "I thank for everything.
" No, she's gone.
Come on, Peter, you saved our jobs, just admit it.
Listen, I'm gonna say who it is so you guys just quit asking.
Yeah, because it's him.
Peter came up with the extra cash.
Admit it, you're the white knight.
He is definitely not me, okay? I found an investor.
Well, he'd better get that place up and running because if my wife can't stand it if I'm on vacation paid or otherwise.
I should have never doubted you, buddy.
I'm gonna get a soda.
Do you want something? No, I'm good.
Thanks.
Hey.
Hey.
How's everything going? I don't know.
But don't worry.
whatever happened between us, I'm leaving you out of it.
I don't know what to say.
I do.
Congratulations.
For what? For helping him help everyone.
He did this all on his own.
Despite me.
I never knew a guy with so many friends.
He deserves it.
So do you.
- I don't know.
- I do.
I always did.
Nina, you don't have Cameron, you just said it, he could have anyone as a best friend.
He picked you.
I thought that we were gonna tell everybody that I'm the What's it called? Yeah, the white knight.
Yeah, the mystery investor babe.
Me.
Shouldn't everyone know? I'll make an announcement when the time is right.
I promise.
Okay.
So it's a secret then, right? A secret that's only for you and me.
Hey.
I'm still working on the document.
Relax.
You'll get your money.
Forget it, I don't need it.
The sister is giving you the money.
Wow.
For a guy who says he doesn't want anything, you sure got a way of getting what you want.
I'll give you a 100K for the effort.
You're kidding, right? No, the deal is still the same, it's 50/50.
Unless you want those witnesses in Buffalo to start changing their testimony.
Wait, hold on a sec.
Are you blackmailing me? The blackmailer.
Wow, crime is insidious, isn't it? You're gonna flip witnesses that you bought? And you think I'm gonna go down without taking you with me? You're gonna get disbarred.
Worse than that I suspect.
We'll both end up in prison slinging mac and cheese in the cafetaria.
Or you can give me the money, we both win.
You think about it.
You must think I'm blind.
I'm not.
I just didn't see it.
Since the lottery, I've been talking about houses and babies.
Things married people want.
You wanted that ticket to buy used freedom.
Beth, I want us to be happy.
I thought we were.
Even ths morning wondering if our marriage was worth saving.
Like I had a choice.
When you've already made yours.
Beth, don't do this.
That's the biggest lie of all.
You want me to do this.
That's why you told me about the affair.
Beth Pull the car over.
Come on, it's late and it's dark.
Pull the car over.
Beth, I don't know what to say.
Just to be clear, so I don't wake up tomorrow or 15 years from now thinking I was nuts.
I want you to say it to me.
- Beth - Not my name.
Hers.
Nina.
At least, we're done pretending it's about some girl in Italy.
No, just Beth, wait a minute.
