Murphy's Law
1 Now, for the last time, get out of my house.
There he is.
My guy! Where you been, man? I've been worried about you.
[Thurston groans.]
I hope you've been having fun with my money.
It's a nice bonus to discover what a fortune you'd saved up.
I'm done, Seb.
I want out.
Have you been skimming from my take all this time, huh? Just take the savings.
Just take the savings and just let us go.
[chuckles.]
Ah, right.
You're, uh, you're moving to California, right? - Huh? - Uh-huh.
Uh, where the sun always shines and the waves wash your troubles away.
All right? Huh? 'Cause life's problems don't exist in the golden state.
There's just you and Gavin and sweet mother ocean.
There is no out, buddy.
You have a mess on your hands.
Where'd you come from? Gavin.
Evie says she's watching you.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey, man.
Hey.
You okay? Gavin, what happened? [Sebastian.]
Go on the Talley Way.
Circle around the house.
Cut through the forest.
No.
No, Seb.
I settled everything with her already.
If we do anything else to her, she's Pal, I'm not doing a thing.
But, Seb, she's dangerous.
Well, like your grandpa used to say, "Dead dogs got no bite.
" That's definitely true for that mean son of a bitch.
You tempted? You got two rounds.
Hey, Gavin.
They teach you this stuff in school, huh? Cause and effect.
Murphy's Law.
The hand of fate.
These are the ways of the world.
Seb People are gonna get ideas.
Yeah.
No shit, Sherlock.
You're gonna hang around, make it look like they're the victims of the Kings Point killer.
And if you should happen to get caught Well, ladies and gentlemen, who do we have here? The sadistic pervert himself.
And let me make something clear to you that I made clear for your pops.
You will take the heat.
I'm Murphy's Law.
I'm the hand of fate.
Isn't that right, King? You know your brother's probably the single most important person in my life.
Show Thurston what I'll do.
