Ringer s01e16 Episode Script

My name is Bridgette.
I witnessed a murder.
Just get up on the stand and tell the judge what you saw and we'll protect you you don't get it.
Bodaway wants me dead, I'm dead.
I ran to my sister Siobhan for help.
Siobhan killed herself, and I assumed her identity.
It was so easy.
I saw a way out, and I took it.
They all think that I'm her.
Two of the six investors we landed last month have pulled out.
If we don't score someone big enough to cover those losses, you know what that could mean.
This is Tyler Barrett.
I have reason to believe there might be some Less-than-scrupulous activity going on in my company.
Martin/charles is running a Ponzi scheme.
I still don't think Andrew's the one behind it.
You've worked with Olivia forever, and to find out that she's been betraying you all this time The Ponzi scheme wasn't Olivia's idea.
It was mine.
(Car horn honks) (Knocking) What are these for? How about for being a jealous douche bag when I saw your brother on the computer? Or for not getting to see you sooner? Make it back to Paris finally, and I get stuck at a stupid conference in Rome.
It doesn't matter.
They're beautiful.
Thank you.
So you've, uh, been to the doctor, and everything is okay? Yeah, everything's fine.
(Sighs) Well, we have a lot to figure out.
Can't be hiding out with a baby.
That's why we need to take care of Andrew.
Did you bring the data you got from martin/charles? Those documents show a rate of return that's so steady, it's impossible.
It's suspicious, but it's not a smoking gun.
Do you have the reports that you got from Andrew's home computer? These numbers are completely different.
Are you sure? I'm pretty sure.
I had them on a flash drive.
Well, then we have all the proof we need.
Maybe we should just go to the authorities? Tyler, it's too soon.
I have to protect myself.
How does turning in Andrew hurt you? I'm his wife.
The second this comes to light, they'll freeze all of his assets.
I'll be left with nothing.
I'll get a new job.
I'll support us.
I wish it was that simple.
You don't understand what Andrew's capable of.
I know this is a lot, and if it's too much, and you want to leave, I'll understand.
Siobhan, all I want is for us to be together, to be a family.
Then can you trust me a little bit longer? You know, I completely forgot that I put the flash drive in the hotel safe downstairs.
It can wait till tomorrow.
Tonight is gonna be just about us.
The three of us.
(Car horn honking) What do you mean you're buying the Ponzi scheme? Everything points to Olivia.
She handles the details, but it was all my idea.
Why? We made a series of bad investments.
It wasn't enough to cover expenses, so I used money from new investors to pay out existing ones.
It was only supposed to be temporary.
But then, the economy collapsed, and more investors demanded payouts, and we got in over our heads.
But I've started a high-frequency trading program using computers to outsmart the market.
We can use the extra profit to dig ourselves out of this hole.
Look, I'm so sorry, Siobhan.
I hoped that I'd never have to tell you this.
And that's why when you came to me before with your suspicions about martin/charles, I told you that you didn't know what you were talking about.
When I came to you before? The way things were between us, I was afraid you were gonna turn me in.
But now, look, I can't lie to you any I need some time.
(line ringing) Lanfair: S.
E.
C.
Lanfair.
Mr.
lanfair, it's Tyler Barrett.
I got the proof I promised you that martin/charles is corrupt.
Let me take a look.
I'll e-mail you a link to a secure ftp site, and we What I've got is damning enough to take down the entire company.
You're not seeing anything until I'm guaranteed immunity.
No promises until we see something.
I really thought Olivia was behind the Ponzi scheme.
She's a conniving bitch.
Andrew? (Sighs) Everything at martin/charles is a lie.
And everything in this house is paid for with stolen money.
Where's Andrew now? Work, I guess.
He stayed in the guest room last night.
Thank God Catherine took Juliet to canyon ranch, so at least she's not here for any of this.
I know you never trusted Andrew, so I guess now you have your proof.
Honestly, I'm a little surprised you're judging him so harshly, given your own situation.
I had to pretend to be Siobhan.
Now I can't make things right.
It it's exactly how Andrew is feeling.
God, I am such a hypocrite.
And he took such a big leap of faith in telling me.
He lied to Siobhan, but he couldn't lie to me.
Wait.
Siobhan confronted Andrew? Apparently.
If the truth about martin/charles gets out, Andrew's finished.
Maybe he took steps to protect himself.
Are you saying that you think that Andrew is behind the hit on Siobhan? No! And besides, the last clue that we found was the footprints in Siobhan's office; They were woman's footprints.
They could have been Olivia's.
Andrew confessed.
You don't kill to protect a secret you just told someone.
Andrew is not capable of murdering anyone.
Yesterday you were convinced he would never run a Ponzi scheme.
Your feelings are clouding your judgment! The way I see it, you have two choices: Testify against bodaway or leave and make a clean start somewhere new.
But you can't stay here where it's more dangerous than what you left behind! You think Andrew might kill me, but I know bodaway will.
There's no way I can go back to my old life, and I am not running again.
Don't do this, bridge! We both wanted to give Andrew the benefit of the doubt before.
But this is your life at stake.
You think that I don't know that?! But come on, Malcolm! I have lived in this house under the same roof with Andrew Andrew Martin may be a liar hey, he might be a crook but he's not a murderer.
And if you can't accept that, then I'm sorry, I think you should leave.
(Elevator bell dings, door opens) (Phone ringing) Man: FBI Denver field office.
Welcome to the bodaway Macawi task force.
Torrance.
I was told to report here.
I didn't know I'd be reporting to you.
but your best lead was the Shaylene Briggs murder.
Now that Jimmy Kemper's confessed, the R.
D.
want to try a different tactic.
Kemper's confession's bogus.
I got a witness who saw Macawi kill Shaylene Briggs.
Oh, bridget Kelly? If she's so willing to testify, why do you spend 50 grand of the bureau's money chasing her, only to come back empty-handed? We're doing things my way now, Vic.
I'm mounting a joint task force with the ATF.
We're going after Macawi for cigarette trafficking.
(Chuckles) Hey, you think I didn't try that angle? I know Macawi.
It's not gonna work.
Maybe I know a different side of him.
When it comes to Macawi, your focus is a little, uh Distorted.
How are you gonna build a case when you can't even get your basics straight, huh? This guy here, Nathan purdue? Not a bookie.
Clarence Rudy? Guy barely knows Macawi.
He's a wannabe.
You got me, Vic.
There are some mistakes on this board.
Like this one Bridget Kelly? She's no longer part of this case.
(Pulsating music playing) Has anyone ever told you you have amazing eyes? (Chuckles) Uh-huh, once or twice.
Mm.
So, you, uh, want me to rock your world? Thanks, but I'm good.
Whatever.
(Woman laughing) So, what'll it be, Vic? Hmm? A little lap dance? Maybe the champagne court? You know why I'm here, Shaylene.
Hmm I thought you might surprise me.
You know, I was her age when I started d.
Supposed to be temporary just to earn enough money to get my real estate license.
(Laughs) That was ten years ago.
It's not too late to make a change.
Maybe even get that real estate license.
Wow.
The money's that good, huh? Mm.
What you're asking me to do It's dangerous, right? Look, I'm not going to lie.
It's bodaway Macawi, so yeah, there's risk involved, but I give you my word, I'll do everything I can to keep you safe.
I don't get it.
Why me? I've watched you.
Mm.
I see the way you look at people.
You're good at sizing them up, figuring them out.
Haven't figured you out yet.
Oh, that's exactly how I like it.
(Laughing) All right.
I'm in.
You're going to get a job at Macawi's strip club club caged.
Malcolm: I probably shouldn't be here right now, but things at martin/charles aren't what they seem.
But you know that, right? That's why you brought Siobhan the box.
You wanted her to know the truth.
Uh what are you talking about? Siobhan confronted Andrew.
And I think he'll do anything to keep his secret from getting out maybe even hurt Siobhan.
All right, that is just That is crazy.
And even if it's true, why why are you coming to me, Malcolm? Siobhan told me about the affair.
Don't worry.
I'm not interested in telling anyone.
Okay, if you know about the affair, then you also know that it is over.
Whatever happened between you and Siobhan, I know you loved her once.
You can't want her dead.
No, of course I don't.
You know what Andrew is doing at martin/charles and what he's capable of.
You're the only other person that knows the truth.
If you talk to Siobhan and tell her you think he might hurt her, maybe you can convince her to put some distance between herself and Andrew.
That's all I want.
You told Siobhan the truth? Why on earth would you do that? Oh, never mind.
I can't take any more of your lovesick drivel.
Calm down, Olivia.
I explained we're using HFT to change things.
Oh, please.
Even Siobhan's not stupid enough to believe that.
Don't patronize me.
Do you know how many ni I've laid awake trying to figure out a way that martin/charles doesn't ultimately collapse? There is no palatable exit strategy.
One day, it will fall apart.
But if we keep there is no palatable going with HFT, at least we can give our investors something when that happens.
And what about us? When the end comes, I plan to be on a beach far away with plenty of cash.
I will not let your wife ruin that for me.
(Cell phone chimes) Look, a few months ago, that was my plan, too, but now I don't care where I am as long as I'm with Siobhan.
Even if you're sharing a jail cell? You may be sure of Siobhan right now, but not so long ago, we were taking much more drastic measures.
I'm aware of our history, but things are different now.
We're not ready for the nuclear option.
Nice to see you, Mrs.
Martin.
Is everything okay? Yeah.
Is Andrew available? He's just finishing up a meeting.
Would you like to wait in his office? Yeah.
Um, I will.
Thank you.
(Cell phone chimes) Will you turn that damn thing off? Got a source inside the S.
E.
C.
Last week, he told me we had a mole inside theisranch.
He just found out who.
Last week, he told me Tyler Barrett.
Tyler? I mean, what could he possibly know? We've only just promoted him.
What did he give them? Nothing of consequence as of yet.
I'll get Tyler on the first plane to New York, find out exactly what he knows, who he's spoken to.
I don't care what it takes.
Make sure Tyler doesn't talk.
Malcolm, you should have heard the way they were talking.
It was like they would do anything to keep Tyler quiet.
Malcolm: Remind me who Tyler is.
Bridget: He worked at martin/charles in Paris.
Tyler and Siobhan knew each other intimately.
I didn't realize I was sleeping with the boss's wife.
Excuse me? How many guys was your sister sleeping with? Too many.
But this one knew about the Ponzi scheme.
Maybe that's how Siobhan found out about it.
Maybe he told her.
Who knows? He might have some answers.
Look, uh What we were talking about earlier, I I still don't believe that Andrew would hurt me.
But the way they were talking about Tyler, I I'm I'm packing up.
I'm going to stay at a hotel for a few days.
You don't know how relieved I am to hear that.
You want me to track down Tyler? I'm already on it.
Hey, Mr.
lanfair.
It's Tyler Barrett.
Uh, martin/charles booked me on the next flight to New York.
Uh, they wouldn't tell me why, but I think I need to go.
I don't want to make them suspicious.
I'll call you when I can.
I didn't mean to scare you.
Claudine told me you stopped by, but when I got back to my office, you were gone.
Yeah, I completely forgot I, um Had an appointment across town.
Ah.
Are you leaving? Just for a few days.
Siobhan, please talk to me.
Don't go.
I'll stay in the guest bedroom for as long as you want.
I just don't feel comfortable here right now.
You don't feel comfortable? What do you think I'll do? No, it's not I didn't meant it like that.
I I just I have some things that I I need to figure out.
What things? Siobhan, I hope you know, if what I told you gets out, it'll affect you as well we've both spent money from martin/charles.
That's not what this is about.
I just need a little time.
(Phone ringing) (Chuckles) Hey.
I was just thinking about you.
Siobhan: I need your help.
The flash drive that I took from Andrew Tyler stole it.
I thought he was helping you.
I think he might be getting cold feet.
I found out he's going to New York.
I don't know if he's going to the authorities or to Andrew or what.
We have to control the way that information gets out.
I need you to get it back.
Okay.
Any idea how? Well, I assume he's going to be staying at the soho diamond.
That's where martin/charles puts everyone.
Break into his room, pickpocket him I don't care.
Just get it back.
Oh, take it easy.
Take it easy.
I'll get it back.
One more thing.
I need you to keep bridget away from Tyler.
(Laughs) Okay.
Well, what are the chances that their paths will cross? I'm not leaving anything to chance.
They met once before, and it almost ruined everything.
Well, I have some news that might cheer you up.
Malcolm came by today.
What did he want? He wanted to talk about bridget.
Apparently, Andrew has a secret that he needs to protect.
So I guess that bridget knows about the Ponzi scheme, right? That's That's what you wanted.
That's good.
But, um He was also worried about what Andrew would do to protect himself.
He said that he thinks He thinks bridget's life is in danger.
That's not so good.
Malcolm is getting way too close to the truth.
And we can't have him around to protect bridget.
(Sighs) We need Malcolm gone.
(Phone ringing) Andrew Martin's office.
Hey, claudine.
It's Siobhan.
I have a quick question for you.
Andrew mentioned that Tyler Barrett was coming into town.
We had such a nice dinner last time; I was thinking I would arrange another one.
Oh, I'm happy to make a reservation.
Oh, no, no, no.
I don't want to bother you.
I-I don't mind doing it.
I just need to know where he's staying.
The soho diamond, arriving tomorrow at noon.
Perfect.
Thank you.
How long you been with the ATF, Conroy? Going on two years now.
So what'd you do to get put in the doghouse? Come on.
Surveilling delivery trucks is a crap detail.
Torrance is showing us who's boss.
I worked with torrance in Cheyenne.
He's got great instincts.
Ah.
What the hell happened? You're 40 minutes late.
I'm sorry.
Bodaway wanted a dance.
I like it when you get jealous.
Jealous? You think I? That man's a psychopath.
I don't like how close you are to him.
It's not safe.
Well, not to point fingers, Vic, but I only took this job because of you.
I know.
I know.
That's when you were just another informant.
Oh, yeah? And what am I now? I want you to quit.
I have something to tell you.
You want me to quit? Whoa, whoa, what were you gonna say? No, no.
What is this about? Quitting? I'm sick of being worried about you.
I want you to quit.
Tonight.
Come on, we'll hit the road, we'll just start over.
Together.
Well, what about your career? Who cares about my career? You're more important than my career.
I know you say that But-but then you're gonna regret it if you throw it all away for me, and I don't That's not how I want our life together to start.
Look, you said that we're closer than anyone's ever been to busting bodaway.
Let me go back tomorrow.
He's having a party in the basement; Usually no girls allowed.
But he's asked bridget and me to dance.
Bridget, too? Yes.
At least you know the risk, but your friend Let us do this.
If we back out It might make bodaway suspicious.
You know that.
One more time.
Then you're done.
Okay.
That's fine by me.
What was it you wanted to tell me? Oh It'll keep.
Oh, come on.
Don't worry.
It's nothing bad.
(Laughing): It's not! It's not bad.
Receptionist: Good morning, martin/charles.
May I help you? Give us a moment.
I brought in an outside firm to examine our security system.
Did you know someone entered three incorrect passwords in a row into your computer last month? No.
Did they get in? Not here, but we should, uh, check your home system just to be sure.
Andrew Did Siobhan tell you how she found out about the Ponzi scheme? She's had suspicions for a while.
But you're not seriously suggesting that my wife hacked our system? No.
I know who did.
Malcolm ward.
But you said he didn't get anything.
Well, I was wrong.
Malcolm was good at covering his tracks.
It's taken the techs all morning, but they've discovered he accessed a number of files.
Including a certain algorithm on my desktop.
(Sighs) So you think that Malcolm found evidence against us and told Siobhan? Well, it makes sense, doesn't it? I just heard from my source.
Tyler Barrett has promised the S.
E.
C.
Iron-clad proof of wrongdoing at martin/charles.
I'm off to deal with him right now.
While I'm gone, I trust you'll consider our other situation.
Because while Siobhan's Affection for you might be enough to win her cooperation, what's motivating Malcolm to keep silent? (Phone ringing) Hello? Siobhan: Malcolm, it's me.
Bridge? Why's your number blocked? Siobhan: How dare you talk to Henry about me? You completely betrayed my trust! Who the hell do you think you are? Bridget, calm down.
I was concerned.
After our fight, I wasn't sure Siobhan: But you told Henry about our fight? Why not just tell him I'm bridget? I would never do that! I only went to Henry because he knew the truth about martin/charles and Andrew.
I'm trying to protect you.
Siobhan: Spare me.
I spent months trying to get Henry out of my life, and now you bring him back? At the same time you're trying to poison me against Andrew.
You hate the fact that I have relationships that you're not a part of.
Bridget, if you really think that, then you don't know me at all.
I know you're jealous.
You're trying to destroy the life that I've made for myself here.
What the hell has gotten into you? Please tell me you're not using.
Siobhan: You would love that, wouldn't you? You get off on saving me.
Well, I hate to tell you, but I'm more lucid than I've ever been.
Look, Malcolm, I don't need to be rescued any more, so Go find someone else to save.
We're done.
(Elevator bell dings) I sent the information you requested on Malcolm ward to your phone.
Did my wife call? Not today.
Yesterday, but she called for me.
She had some questions about Tyler Barrett.
Tyler? Why would she ask about him? She wanted to arrange a dinner for the three of you.
Did I do something wrong? No.
Just tell me everything she said.
She wanted to know what hotel Tyler was staying in, and I told her he was at the soho diamond.
(Elevator bell dings) oh, oh, baby I all my life I've been searching for love I love you.
I love you, too.
mourning for love giving everything I know Siobhan oh, oh, oh baby will you marry me? Again? Yes.
when you touch me baby (Cell phone ringing) Mr.
lanfair, finally.
I've been calling, I'm in New York, and Lanfair: Can you come straight to my office? I was impressed enough by what you sent me to sign off on immunity, so bring me everything.
And don't worry You're bulletproof.
(Elevator bell dings) Siobhan.
Henry, what are you doing here? Uh I have to go.
(Grunts in protest) What the hell are you doing? What am I doing? What are (Laughs) You're the one who's in my hotel.
You don't remember? We used to hang out all the time.
I couldn't get any work done.
So I would sneak off here to write, and you Would swear to stay away, but you never could.
And when you would show up (Laughs) So forgive me.
When I saw you, I guess I hoped that you were here to see me.
(Sighs) Henry I know.
I get it.
You and Andrew, you're the perfect couple.
Nothing can come between you two.
I wish it were that simple.
I-I really have to go.
Tyler: Taxi! Get in.
Now.
First of all, you're fired.
But I was Don't interrupt.
You've been accessing proprietary martin/charles data.
Look, if you'd just let me explain Don't insult me by lying, Tyler.
It's obvious what you're up to: Taking what you think you know to the S.
E.
C.
Everett lanfair said you'd be "bulletproof," correct? It is very convenient that we've just made you our director of European operations, don't you think? If this company goes down, you'll be implicated, and Mr.
lanfair won't lift a finger to help.
And Tyler You're way too pretty to go to jail.
I think you'd better give me those files now, don't you think? Is that everything? Yeah.
For your sake, you'd better be telling me the truth.
Mind explaining this? Well, this is one of the liquor stores we went to yesterday.
We were spot-checking cigarette seals.
You had me wait in the car while you talked to the clerk.
You waited in the car? You're supposed to keep an eye on him.
Jimmy Kemper took me to this store a few times.
He was a regular.
That's his car, parked outside the store Shaylene Briggs was murdered.
Club caged is a good There's no way Kemper could've gotten there in time to kill her.
What the hell is wrong with you? I mean, Kemper puts a gun to your head, and all you can think about is how to clear him of murder? Uh I-I'm trying to make sure that Macawi pays for the murder that bridget Kelly saw him commit.
Now, I know you could care less about the truth, but that's why I do this job.
Well I heard you did it 'cause you like, uh Banging strippers.
Think it's that easy to get rid of me, huh? Well, maybe you don't understand the stakes, but I do, okay? Macawi kills people.
Good people, who don't deserve what he does.
The day he's rotting in a cell that's when I'm gonna stop chasing him.
(Sighs softly) These the, uh, these the remains? Dismembered? Another rock Springs special, yeah.
You don't have to do this, you know.
We can use dental records.
I-I need to see her.
Yeah, that's, uh, that's Shaylene Briggs.
You knew her? She, uh, she was my C.
I.
Sh-she went, she went to a, uh a party at Macawi's two days ago.
She just never checked in afterward.
(Sniffles) Just, uh do what you can for her, please.
You know, sh-she doesn't have any family.
Hey, agent Machado? I doubt if this matters to your case, but she was four weeks pregnant.
What was it you wanted to tell me? Oh it'll keep.
Oh, come on.
No, don't worry.
It's nothing bad.
(Dialing) (Line ringing) Tyler, what's going on? I screwed up, Siobhan.
What did you do? I-I went to the S.
E.
C.
What were you thinking? I was thinking about us.
I mean, we've been collecting all this evidence against martin/charles why not use it? Then we'd be free to start our life as a family.
But none of that matters any more.
Olivia got to me first.
She knew everything.
Tell me, does Olivia know about you and me in Paris? No.
I don't think so.
But she knew everything else.
She has someone inside the S.
E.
C.
What are we gonna do, Siobhan? Here we are, right back where we started.
Thank you.
Cabbie: Something wrong, lady? Just turn the meter on, but don't drive.
(Cell phone rings) Andrew (Recorded): It's me.
I'm not sure what to say to you.
I know this has been a problem of my own making, and I have no right to defend myself, but I wasn't the only one keeping secrets, was I? I know you've been in contact with Tyler Barrett.
Siobhan, if the truth gets out, I will lose everything my company, my friends, my daughter.
I won't let you destroy my life.
I'm so sorry, Siobhan.
I I should've trusted you.
Olivia and Andrew are very dangerous people.
Now you see what I'm up against.
Just tell me, how did you leave things with Olivia? I gave her the files I showed you, but not the flash drive.
Good.
Don't let that flash drive out of your sight.
And get on the first flight back to Paris.
(Door opens) (Door closes) What the hell are you doing here? you broke into the fabric as a stranger, lafaye (elevator bell dings) and there your heart was taken from you .
Mr.
Jennings? Housekeeping.
(Lock beeps) you have the blood of intuition with a name that branded you and the familiar unfamiliar would be the only thing you knew (elevator bell dings) lafaye LA, LA, LA lafaye Tyler? (Sirens wailing) (Tires screeching) Just drive.
Yes, ma'am.
(Cell phone ringing) Yeah.
Malcolm: Agent Machado? It's Malcolm ward.
Malcolm.
H-how can I help you? (Line ringing) Malcolm (Recorded): You've reached Malcolm ward.
Please leave a message at the tone.
(Beep) Malcolm, it's me.
I found Tyler.
He's dead.
I made an anonymous call to the police.
I've decided to press charges against bodaway Macawi for kidnapping me.
That's, uh, that's great.
Uh, can I ask you what changed your mind? Because last time we spoke, you wouldn't even admit you'd been abducted.
I realized the only reason bridget went on the run was because of bodaway.
Whatever kind of life she's living now, wherever she is, I can't imagine it's what she's planned for herself.
If bridget doesn't feel like she can testify, I will.
Once bodaway's in jail, maybe she'll finally feel like she can return to her old life.
Um, uh I'm gonna take care of you.
Okay? I want you to go straight to the FBI field office in New York, I want you to wait there, and I'll be on the next flight out.
Okay.
And, Malcolm, thank you.
controlling minds you hold the mirror to everybody else Malcolm, I think you were right.
I think Andrew and Olivia might be capable of murder.
(Cell phone beeping) trying to forgive your crimes everyone changes in time I hope he changes (knock on door) this time.
