Filthy Rich (2020) s01e10 Episode Script

1
Blessed is the one
who reads aloud
the words of this prophecy.
Eugene was in the
middle of all of this.
For the time is near.
As you all know,
in just under four short months,
we're launching Sunny Club.
A great sign appeared.
A woman cloaked in the sun
with the moon under her feet
and a crown of twelve
stars on her head.
She was pregnant.
And the dragon stood
before thee as she gave birth.
Howard!
But her child was
caught up to God.
I'm ready, my Lord.
And the woman fled
into the wilderness.
We're millionaires now.
But as for the murderers
I left a man to die alone.
- Fornicators.
- I wanna be there for you.
Sorcerers.
Forgive me, for I have s
Idolaters
If you take me down for Eugene,
I will take your son with me.
And all the liars
I helped my brother die.
Their place shall be in the lake
that burns with fire.
Let the unrighteous
I'm getting married.
Continue to be unrighteous.
And the holy
continue to be holy.
Welcome home, son.
- Behold.
- Hello, Ginger.
I am coming soon.
Revelation 22:12.
In your name I pray, amen.
Margaret?
What are you doing in here?
I guess I'm kinda sad.
I'm the cook's daughter.
I'll never have what those
girls downstairs have.
Come with me.
This was my dress
when I first came out.
Wow.
Why should rich
girls have all the fun?
Three, two, one!
And Sunny Club is live!
My goodness.
At this very moment,
products that you
can feel good about
are on their way to you.
We couldn't have
gotten here without you.
Let's take a moment
to remember those who
are no longer with us.
Our reverend, Paul.
He was a truly honorable man.
And of course,
our dear Eugene.
May he be looking
down on us from Heaven.
Be proud of what God has done.
What God has done.
We should be happy for her.
Sunny Club. Network.
Greed.
That's all just
part of my past life.
Beware of practicing your
righteousness before men,
to be noticed by them.
Otherwise, you have no
reward with your father.
Antonio and Jason
were up there with her.
You should have been too.
It's Mark now.
Somehow, boys
who couldn't even
calculate a percentage
of Monroe Unlimited
a few months ago
ended up with ownership stakes.
Money ruins people.
I'm happy to be rid of it.
Well, if that's the case,
there's 25 years of unpaid
child support I could use.
Um, give us a second, Daddy.
Take it easy on him.
Eugene provided
for Eric and Rose.
Now Antonio and Mark
own half his company.
What did you get?
I thought you loved him.
All the years I was drunk.
He chose to come home to us.
And we're gonna
keep him with us.
At least for another
couple of days.
I still don't understand why
you're protecting
Margaret and Rose.
I care about them.
Those line the foyer.
And I want one every five feet.
Hey, you two. You
save that for later.
She's still getting
used to the idea
that we're not actually related.
Now you go upstairs and
you make yourself gorgeous.
I have things under control.
I really appreciate how cool
you've been about everything.
Well, to be honest, I'm
still getting used to the idea
of my daughter marrying a fraud.
But we can't afford another
scandal, can we, sweetie?
And my experience with liars
is that you'll never
get to know the worst.
Besides, my Rosy loves you.
And I love her.
You stay in line,
or I will haul you off to
jail at a moment's notice.
Nothing is going to ruin my
daughter's perfect wedding day.
Not even her groom.
I've played three
rounds of golf this week,
and I'm going down to
Grand Isle in the morning
to look at a house.
You on a beach?
Five acres of beach.
I've never seen you out
of a suit and tie before.
You're a workaholic.
Well, not anymore.
Launching Sunny Club
has set me up
for four or five lifetimes.
I'm just gonna sit
back and cash checks.
What happened to
you and Margaret?
I always planned
to retire early.
Why? Has she said
anything about me?
Lord, y'all had sex?
Margaret and I crossed
some lines with each other
that should not
have been crossed.
Well
the most powerful
Christian woman in America
is getting calls from every
lobbyist in Washington.
Wall Street vultures are
wooing her to go public.
She needs you.
That woman doesn't need anybody.
As our new board of directors
you'll have important
responsibilities.
Antonio, I would like you
to oversee Praise-Per-View.
And Mark, you're going
to run the fraud division
because, well, it
takes one to know one.
Did Franklin okay this
new board of yours?
Franklin has moved on.
When? Why?
Boys, would you excuse us?
We need Franklin, okay?
'Cause Antonia and
whatever the hell his name is,
they don't know the first
thing about our business.
Antonio can be managed,
and soon Mark will be too.
I knew you were taking
this marriage too well.
If Rose marries Mark,
his 31% is still in the family.
Honestly, I never
thought about it like that.
"I never thought
about it like that."
Is there anything you can't
turn to your advantage?
I've done my due
diligence on Mark.
I'm protecting Rose
just like I protected you.
Come on, Momma!
Do you think I like any of this?
I don't know what the
hell you think anymore.
I had to swaddle her.
She's gonna claw her
eyes out with those tiny nails.
Come here.
You'll feel better when
you get some sleep.
Sh-shh.
When I close my
eyes, it's all I see.
My brother's body.
All that blood.
What kind of animal
leaves a man to die like that?
- Eric!
- Sh-sh-sh.
How's the service coming?
You can finally use
your Liberty degree.
You're truly crazy to do this.
Eric, don't spoil this.
Just because your marriage
is understandably
going down the toilet.
And I actually have
momma's blessing.
Momma's only going
along with this charade
to keep Veronica's
shares in the family.
She taught us right from wrong
but only when it's convenient.
Wait. Where are you going?
Don't be a little bitch, Eric!
I gave Margaret her moment.
Now I think it's time for me
to reconnect with my family.
I mean, beyond
you and your mother.
I understand.
Excuse me. I've gotta take this.
It's Rose.
Hey, where are you?
It's a pysch ward in here.
I need someone sane.
I'm just dealing with
your wedding present.
Wedding?
Um, I'll see you
later. I gotta go.
Wedding?
Okay.
Rose is getting married
to Mark
today.
Why didn't you tell me?
'Cause if you show up,
everyone will remember it
as the day that Eugene
Monreaux rose from the dead,
not the day that Rose
Monreaux married
I should be walking
her down the aisle.
Remember what you
said about attention.
I can't carry this
around with me.
The burden's too much.
My parents raised me right.
They did.
Follow God's laws,
you'll be rewarded.
Break God's laws,
you will be punished.
What if you break God's laws,
and you are still rewarded?
Right? What if you
get richer and richer
and richer and richer?
Then nothing matters.
Right? Nothing matters.
I can't live in a world
where God is a joke.
Sign the confession,
and He won't be.
I'll be right back.
Jeez.
We were going to pick you up,
but thanks for saving us a trip.
So, bro, you're
finally settling down?
- Yeah.
- How does it feel?
It's like my goofy
mind is finally sane.
I recommend it.
You must've been drowning
in chicks after that fight.
Nah, there's somebody I like.
Piece of advice, we're
men of means now.
I mean, I'm lucky. I met
Rose before I was rich,
but there's a lot of
gold diggers out there.
- Hey, Sparkles.
- Hi!
What up?
So I saw you guys on TV.
You both looked
very, very handsome.
Yeah, Margaret
dragged us up there.
- Where were you?
- It was for shareholders only.
Here you go.
To Ginger, who
always had our backs.
And still does.
Can you imagine if we just took
that first deal and went home?
We wouldn't be here
if it weren't for you.
Let's be honest.
If it weren't for the
women in your lives,
Veronica, Yopi,
you two would still be broke.
So here's to the women
who made it possible.
Cheers.
I want to give her
some of my shares.
She's really smart.
She should be on the board, too.
Sweetie, you don't have to
feel guilty about being wealthy.
There's gonna be people
coming into your life now,
and, well, they just don't
have the best intentions.
Ginger has always had
my best interests at heart.
And so have I.
The board will stay
exactly how it is.
Time for rehearsal, everyone!
Do we really have
to practice this?
I've been walking up and
down these steps my whole life.
Not in heels with nerves.
It can be challenging.
You trust me.
Mark, you stand right here.
And Maid of Honor,
you're gonna be here.
And here and I
guess I'll be Eric
since, well, he's
nowhere to be found.
I will never forget the night
that I descended that staircase
to dance with your daddy.
It was the night of
my debutante ball.
Eugene, he was
waiting down below,
and he stretched
out his hand to me
with a look that said I was
the only woman in the world.
A few months later, I became
Mrs. Eugene Monreaux.
Cut the strings.
So you married
Eugene a few months
after your debutante ball?
- How old was he?
- Well, I don't know.
23, 24.
It was a different time.
And I was proud to be chosen.
Where do we go from here?
Heaven, I hope.
I mean where are you
going to live, Eugene?
And are you
planning to take back
your place at the network?
I am free of earthly
possessions.
You may want to
burden Ginger with them.
I am trying to guide
my child into the light,
and all you can
talk about is money?
I don't want her to
make my mistake.
You can't waltz in
here after 25 years
and expect her
to think like you.
You're right.
Wait.
Ginger said not to leave.
I need to do right
by my daughters.
This whole time,
you've been a cop.
FBI, actually.
Well, well, if you're alive,
then you got nothing on me.
Except a written confession.
Attempted murder.
Fleeing the scene of a crime.
That's entrapment.
You planned this.
Just because you weren't
successful at committing
a crime doesn't mean
there was no crime.
A wire?
- You're crazy.
- You know, a hunch tells me
that when you looked
at my crime board,
you zeroed in on the
people that you knew.
Reverend, his pals, family
My brother-in-law's dead.
My uncles are out
of the business.
Those were the
devils that you knew.
The devils you don't know,
they're far more dangerous.
The 1820 isn't finished.
Over the years, they've
grown increasingly international.
And in light of your mother's
new position of influence,
they're gonna
make a play for her.
We need to know what they want.
You can do what you want to me,
but I'm not spying on my family.
You got 24 hours
to think it over.
Why don't you take a
hard look at your family
and ask yourself,
"Are they worth that
little girl growing up
without her daddy?"
You still hide your keys
under that fake rock.
- Are you a ghost?
- No.
But I need you to
make me alive again.
Thanks for fixing
Margaret up with that dress.
She'll remember this
night for the rest of her life.
She is so lovely.
Mr. Eugene is past marrying age.
He needs a girl who adores him,
who will treat him
like the prince he is,
a woman of faith.
Proverbs 31, "A wife of
noble character who can find
she's worth far
more than rubies."
We all want what's best
for our children, don't we?
- Amen to that.
- Ellie!
Monique! Franklin!
Sit. Sit down.
Who else knows about you?
Just Ginger.
And Tina.
Look, I don't know what
you're expecting, Gene.
But you're not just
gonna stroll back home.
Life's moved on,
people have changed,
Sunny Club launched beyond
our wildest dreams without you.
But I need you to
prepare Margaret.
For the shock?
Or for you to try to take
control of the company?
My soul is clean. I've
given up worldly things.
But there is other
business I need done.
I fear it might upset her.
Why come to me?
Because you're the one
I could always count on.
Well, my goodness.
Who taught you to set a table?
No judgments. I grew
up eating off sporks.
Did you play those
violins for Antonio,
guilting him about
his good fortune?
His good fortune is in
large part thanks to me.
I offered you a stake
in our company, a job.
You walked away.
The boys walked away, too.
And yet somehow
they're on the board
making major decisions
they're unqualified to make.
They have the only
qualifications that matter.
- Testicles?
- Ears.
They listen to me.
- But you never have.
- I have listened.
In the last week, I could've
blown up Sunny Club
any time I wanted.
I didn't, because I
care about this family.
Is this another one of
those petulant bluffs?
I assure you it isn't.
You should just be grateful
that you still have a seat
at our dinner table, Ginger.
Because you will never
have a seat on our board.
Get in, old man.
- Luke?
- Shh.
Southern women are
groomed for marriage.
It's like this whole
fairytale thing.
And this is not how any
of it is supposed to go.
And I am fine with it.
Well, except for the part
about getting married
on a plantation,
I'd say you're doing
a pretty good job
of breaking southern tradition.
It's a camp.
Honey, it's a plantation.
I think the only thing
that I am really sad about
is that Daddy isn't here.
Jason saw him.
Jason, our actual brother,
not the one I'm marrying.
He told Mark that when
he was unconscious,
Daddy came to him,
and
ever since Mark told me that,
I've been praying that Daddy's
spirit would visit me, too.
Prayer is powerful.
Rose
Hey, Franklin.
Your father came to see
me. You knew he was alive.
- I did.
- Ask him if he's coming.
We'll discuss the stupidity
of you not telling me later.
I understand.
Let me talk to him.
Hey, Franklin, I know
that you and Momma did it.
I was in the house that night.
You guys were totally loud.
I'm fine with it.
Now, I love you.
I love you, too, kid.
Will you please come?
I can't do that.
But you have a
beautiful day, Rose.
Beautiful.
Not easy to stay
dead in New Orleans.
When you said you
wanted to testify,
I took you
literally, as in court.
Powerful people you
can help put away.
I will do my part.
Now, it's dangerous.
But we're prepared to
offer you witness protection.
New location, new identity.
Fresh start. Isn't that
what you wanted?
Reverend did me a favor when
he took my plane out of the sky.
Made me see my higher purpose.
I won't need
protection. I have God.
Where you going, Eugene?
I have a wedding to get to.
We take ourwe take our vows.
We take our wedding
we take our wedding
We take our wedding
vows from Corinthians.
Chapter 13. "Love is patient.
Love is kind."
Yeah, right.
"It is not rude. It is
not easily angered.
Keeps no record of wrongs."
Rachel, hey.
Hey, can I talk to you?
Hey, I'm so sorry
about Reverend Paul.
Your wife must be devastated.
- Hey!
- I didn't know you'd be here.
She was moping around the hotel.
I brought her as my date.
- What's up, buddy?
- Hey.
Why don't you two
cuties get us some drinks?
- Yeah.
- Sure.
If you love her
you'll let her move on.
That's the dress you were gonna
wear to my wedding with Brett.
We may be rich, but I'm thrifty.
And besides, it's stunning.
No! I don't want you to wear it.
Fine.
I will wear something else.
Momma, look at me.
I know what happened
between you and Franklin,
and I am okay with it.
And for what it's worth,
if you were to move on
everyone would understand.
Sweetie, can I wear one of
your designs to the wedding?
No questions asked?
No questions asked.
Love is in the air.
Did you see Antonio
talking to Rachel?
Wowie, that's an interesting
choice for Mother of the Bride.
Well, as a parent,
you learn the
meaning of sacrifice.
Please try to be
festive for your sister.
Becky asked me for a divorce.
Cheated on me.
That's what we
do in this family,
cheat on each other.
I know how
hurtful that is, I do.
You raised us
to live such a charmed life.
Without any regrets.
But now, I can't
help but find myself
repeating over and
over and over again
If I had known then
what I know now.
You go splash some
cold water on your face,
and you do your sister proud.
Okay, Mom.
Hey, Sleepy-head.
It's about to start.
I had the craziest dream.
I ran away from all this.
Look, I have a
house guest right now,
but he'll be leaving soon.
You can come stay with me.
It was you?
Out of all the
people in the world
it's you.
Eric.
Eric.
You don't understand.
It's more complicated than that.
Complicated?
We're our father's children.
Eric.
Sweetie, you're
the Maid of Honor.
You best take your place.
Rose?
Come in.
My baby girl.
Well
You are a vision.
I
I hope I'm not
breaking your heart.
Momma
We had to vet Mark
for the business,
and I was gonna
keep this to myself.
No, whatever's in that
thing, I am marrying Mark.
I love him.
I just don't want you
to be me, Sweetie.
I know how much you love him.
But I want you to
go into this marriage
with both eyes.
I'm so sorry, Eric.
My wife is sleeping
with my sister,
and my brother is
hitting on my girlfriend.
I think I'm the sorry one.
Everyone, please go home!
- Ro?
- Pretend that you never knew me.
Rouh
You killed him twice, Mark.
You were high
and crashed the car.
I mean, you put him in
a coma in the first place.
I didn't lie.
I told you everything
from the heart.
I just didn't use the words.
You said it was euthanasia.
It was. I
I mean, this is manslaughter.
It was before the euthanasia.
The truth is simple, Mark.
You want the simple truth?
Me and your brother, we
sold weed on the streets.
We lived crazy, and
things happened.
And the crash was
one of those things.
And if you want to hear about it
I really don't.
You're right. I don't, either.
It's just so not my world.
Yeah, I knew that.
And that's why I went home.
Then I let you
drag me back here.
I trusted you with my life.
I'm glad that I did.
'Cause I love you, Rose.
Real love.
Stop it.
I mean, don't Christians
have redemptions?
We could just get
out of here, you know?
We'll get married at city
hall or wherever you want.
I justl know this can work.
I need to think
about my life, Mark.
I can wait.
Don't.
I did not see that coming.
I thought they were in love.
Love doesn't mean anything.
Just ask Rachel.
Where is she?
She went home with my mom.
You gonna do her?
I think I will.
Hey, can you guys
stop being little bitches?
You can both go to hell.
Jank-ass rainbow girl.
Stop it.
Hey, you know your
mother's a whore?
You want to go?
- You want to go?
- Yeah, let's go.
- Stop it.
- And the fact
What, you sat
there the other night
trying to make
me all feel better
about cheating on my wife?
You should've pleased
your wife a little bit better.
I said I'm sorry.
If either of us hurt
you, it was by accident.
Accidents? Accidents.
Nah, you are the accidents.
You and you,
you're the accident.
You're the accident.
You're all the accidents.
Eric, chill, or you're
gonna regret this tomorrow.
I'm gonna regret this.
I'm gonna regret this.
Antonio said I'm
gonna regret this.
- Yeah, you are.
- Okay!
- I'm gonna regret something.
- Okay.
What am I gonna regret,
buddy? Am I gonna regret this?
Hey! Cut it out.
What, regret this? You
came here to destroy me,
so destroy me. Come on, man.
Brother, you don't
want to do this.
Brother?
Hey, cut it out, man!
What is your problem?
No, no, no, no.
Stop, stop, stop,
stop, stop, stop.
- Guys, stop it.
- What's up, homie?
What's up? What's up?
Stop it! Antonio!
Stop it! Hey!
- Just stop it!
- What's good, homie?
- Just kill me!
- What's good?
Antonio!
- Kill me.
- No.
- Kill me.
- Stop it.
Kill me!
Son, stop!
Your brother's blood cries
out to me form the ground.
Now stop.
What are you doing here?
See to your brother.
My God.
Hey. Hey.
Hey, get up.
Maybe I didn't
make myself clear.
You have no business here.
I didn't come here for you.
I had to do something
you won't like,
or even understand at first.
But I did it to
protect the business.
I don't need your protection.
I don't need anyone's.
Total chaos is coming.
Margaret
Eugene is
Rose?
Rose!
Margaret.
Eugene.
Eugene and three of
his friends jumped him.
Left my son in a
pool of his own blood.
Eugene wouldn't.
Eugene would.
And I want justice!
Whatno need to
make a fuss, Monique.
Eugene will never go
to jail. You know that.
If we keep this between us,
I'll see to it that Franklin
won't ever have to
work in this house.
Think about it.
I have to get back to the party.
This is your opportunity.
Can't do better than that.
You want me to throw
away my son's dignity?
For an opportunity?
Yes. And hope they
thank us for it later.
Where the hell have you been?
God sent me on
a spiritual quest,
a crooked path that led me home.
And there were no phones
on this crooked path?
I was guided by your mother
and my mother and
Franklin's mother and
then I resurrected
my son in Colorado,
if only briefly.
You must be exhausted.
Dying would've been easier
than what I've been through.
What you've been through?
Really?
You let your wife and
children think you were dead,
while everything we held
sacred turned out to be a lie.
You're shameless.
You should be crawling to me
like a two-legged
dog in a ditch.
Being rich makes
you filthy, Margaret,
and I was very, very rich.
And you're even richer
now, Eugene, thanks to me.
I have given up material things.
Says the man in
white tie and tails.
I'm dressed for a wedding
out of respect for the bride.
Why would he do that to us?
He's sick.
It's all just so sick.
I mean, why would he show up?
Just out of the blue like this?
This family is nuts. I don't
even know what to say.
I begged him to
wait one more day.
Just one more,
and let it be about
you and Mark.
What do you mean you begged him?
You knew my father was alive?
How long? How long you know?
Not long at all. I was just
My God. I am his daughter!
I had a right to know!
I'm his daughter, too.
You all had decades with
him. I just wanted a little time.
We all would've wanted that.
- Shut up.
- He was my father.
He was just your sperm donor.
We're done.
Was any of it ever love?
Of course, it was.
You were my jewel, but we
We were a love built
on blood and treasure.
If you don't want our business,
then why are you here?
I made amends to my sons.
I opened Eric's eyes,
and I saved him from
a life of corruption.
I saved Antonio's son from
the clutches of a madman.
I breathed life into Jason.
But I have failed my girls.
Now, I wanted to walk
Rose down the aisle,
but I'm too late.
I tried to make a
new life for Ginger.
A life she thought she
wanted, but she is more like you
than either of you
are willing to admit.
And I realized there
was only one thing
that would satisfy her.
My ownership stake
in Monreaux Unlimited.
No, I didn't ask him, Margaret.
I swear.
But it is what you
wanted, darling,
more than anything.
And so now you will have to
seek salvation on your own.
It's your turn to
be tested by God.
You're insane.
No, I am clear.
God saved me so
that I may do right
by all six of my children.
Six?
Eugene?
You came back for us.
I was just a child.
My child has led me home.
You are a monster.
No.
I am just a humble sinner.
A humble sinner born again.
Never set foot in
this house again.
Y'all can have the business,
but this house is mine.
It is the precious cornerstone
of a sure foundation
for my child,
for a new life.
Get out of this house.
Everyone, out! Now!
The sins of the father
will not be the sins of the son.
My father's returned,
and I need to protect
my mother at any cost.
I'm your guy.
Wire me up.
Rot in hell.
How am I gonna explain this?
You let the old south burn.
So something new can rise.
