Mistresses (US) s03e12 Episode Script

You are being so rude.
And you're being such a bitch! Previously on "Mistresses" I slept with my ex-boyfriend while you were away.
Goodbye, April.
I'm sick again, Karen.
That's Calista's car.
That's her ring! That's Calista! Placing her at the scene of the crime at the time of the murder.
Calista Raines, you are under arrest for the murder of Luca Raines.
I'm out, right? It's happening? Joss, I-I'm sorry.
You're, uh, being charged with co-conspiracy.
They think you did it together.
In a shocking, new development in the Luca Raines murder case, fashion designer Calista Raines has been charged with conspiracy to commit murder.
Police have accused Ms.
Raines of conspiring with friend and business associate Josslyn Carver, who was previously solely charged in connection with the Harry.
Have you seen the news? Just now.
How is this happening? I thought that video of Calista was supposed to get Joss out.
Didn't David promise yeah, I'm calling the bastard right now.
- Call me after you talk to him.
- Okay.
Will do.
Bye.
You said that we didn't have to dress up for this.
We don't.
Should we go? Yeah.
You didn't have to come here.
You're not doing this alone.
Oh, good.
You brought a friend.
Hi.
I don't understand what happened.
She was doing so well.
As you know, when you came into the picture, Vivian's aplastic anemia had all but destroyed her bone marrow.
She was barely kicking along.
And the stem cells that you gave her helped her body to grow new marrow, which was responsible for that burst of health and energy that you saw.
But, as I'm sure Vivian has told you Okay.
Um, during our check-up last week, I noticed a rash on her back.
I ran some tests.
What did you find? My body's rejecting your cells, Karen.
It's graft versus host.
It's a common hazard with transplants.
Vivian? Please look at me.
We will fix this.
You'll be fine.
So, what's the plan? Up her cyclosporine? And put her on prednisone, yeah.
And what stage is she in? This is actually what I called you in to discuss.
Since your immune system's been so compromised by the anemia, you could move through the stages fairly quickly.
Well, that's just speculative, right? I got your liver-function tests back this morning.
They, uh, showed an elevation in the alkaline phosphatase concentration.
In English, please? Your liver is starting to fail.
Vivian, you're on the verge of grade 2.
How long do I have? We're not there yet.
What about a liver transplant? I mean, with blood this unhealthy, that's that's just simply not an option.
How long, Dr.
Jenkins? I don't know.
You know what I can't stand more than cruelty? Incompetence.
There I am at this hearing, watching you fail miserably - Calista - at persuading these polyester-wearing pituitary cases that their ridiculous theory is, indeed, ridiculous.
It wasn't the forum to argue.
They read the charge.
We entered a plea.
It's still "not guilty," right? Or or did that change while I was getting strip-searched by Mr.
wonderful back there? Of course it's still "not guilty.
" So, what do they think that that Joss held the gun and I pulled the trigger? No, that Joss pulled the trigger but you manipulated her into doing so and then left her to take the rap.
So, what does that mean for me? In a conspiracy charge, you could both end up with the same amount of time, regardless of who fired the gun.
Neither of us fired the gun! Keep your voice down, Calista.
The only conspiracy there was was to frame him for cheating.
That is it.
I want to speak to the police.
Okay? That's it.
You know what? I want to tell the police the truth.
I will back up everything that Joss said.
You have lost all credibility.
You've lied to the police.
You paid off an alibi.
Any corroboration of Joss' statement at this point would be seen as you retrofitting a story to to suit you.
So, find the gun, then.
Find the gun, and it'll have the murderer's prints on it, and they will not be mine.
You've got an entire police force searching for that weapon to no avail, might I add.
Putting me on that task is a complete waste of our time.
How about finding the person in the video pretending to be me? Is that a complete waste of our time? I'm re-checking Eva's alibi and the alibis of Luca's other mistresses.
I've even checked every car-rental place in Southern California for someone who may have rented a range rover identical to yours.
- And? - Unfortunately, nothing.
Then check neighboring states.
Check Alaska, for all I care.
Do something, Patty.
That's not my car.
You don't believe me, do you? If you don't believe me, you can get the hell out of here.
That's time, ladies.
Obviously, we wanted Calista's arrest to exonerate you, and I'm sorry that that didn't happen, but I talked to the D.
A.
, and they want Calista most for this murder for two reasons.
Uh, because she's evil, and she deserves it? One she's a public figure, and they don't want to be accused of unfair leniency, and two they see her as the puppeteer who was pulling your strings.
Okay, good.
So, what does this mean? The D.
A.
is offering you a plea deal.
Plea deal okay.
So, if you admit to shooting Luca and testify against Calista, you'll get a reduced sentence of 10 to 12 years.
If I admit to hold on.
What? - No, I - I agree.
Wait.
I-I don't even think that I just said a full word.
What are you talking about? You said no, and I concur.
You are not taking the deal.
I'm required by law to bring you every offer, but I'm not letting you plead guilty to a crime that you didn't commit.
I mean, anything less than "not guilty" is unacceptable.
Okay.
Even if we have to appeal and appeal.
So, we have 48 hours to respond, but, obviously, this is clear.
I mean, we're gonna find another way to give them Calista.
Okay.
Okay? And I mean, I-if we don't, how how many years could I get if if this thing goes to trial? Joss please, just David, I I need to know, okay? This is a process, and you have to be patient with it, but I have to say, I'm hopeful about you two.
In one session alone, I saw a positive shift in your interaction.
Anything you'd like to add before we end? Lucy, would you mind if I talked to your mom alone for a sec? Sure.
There are some magazines outside.
Okay.
What is it? Oh, God.
I'm a terrible mother.
Why do you say that? I slapped my child! Lucy heard your apology and forgave you.
I promised myself I would do it different than my parents.
You are doing it differently.
One misstep doesn't invalidate years of good parenting.
Well, lately, it seems like all I've been making are missteps.
Not from where I sit.
Well, you just met me.
Was it a misstep to bring Scotty and Marc into Lucy's life? She clearly loves having them in the family.
She loves taking care of Scotty.
It makes her feel like a part of her father's still with her.
And you saw how she smiled when she talked about Marc.
He's brought her a lot of joy and made her feel less alone.
And that happened because you were selfless enough to step way outside your comfort zone and let those people in.
They have been good for her.
What about for you? No, it's not Larry David.
It's Harry Davis calling for David.
Don't put me on hold again.
April broke up with Blair dropped him like the 180 pounds of deadweight that he was.
Yeah, voice-mail is fine.
Thank you.
David, it's Harry again.
Call me back please.
Unbelievable.
Joss didn't get out? Oh, God.
I'm sorry, man.
Have you seen her yet? They won't let me till this afternoon, and her lawyer's not returning my calls.
- I'm going out of my mind.
- It's okay.
Just take a breath.
I feel like ripping someone's head off! I-I know, I know.
Just Look, if you're seeing her today, you can't show up looking like you do.
Why? What do you mean? How do I look? Terrified.
All I'm saying is, it might scare her, so just just be positive, hopeful.
That's the best thing you can do for her right now.
Yeah.
Thanks, mate.
Hey, man, you should seize the day.
- What's that? - April.
Tell her how you feel.
She could be taken from you tomorrow.
Why do they keep giving us these frickin' hash browns for breakfast? They shouldn't be giving us frozen like, real crap.
Hey.
I thought you got out.
Didn't you hear? Calista and I are co-conspirators.
Oh, shoot.
- Tough break.
- Yeah.
Well hey.
Don't cry.
Not in the yard.
Tears to a mean girl's like blood to a shark.
Listen.
You think you J.
Lo, bitch? Oh, God.
How you gonna go to fashion week now?! Is she coming over here? Joss.
Uh I see you've made friends.
Just say the word.
She's a big girl.
She can talk for herself.
I have nothing to say to you.
Joss, can I just speak to you in private, please? Don't you dare touch me.
Come on.
You heard her, Project Runway.
There are experimental trials.
The N.
I.
H.
does miraculous stuff in this field.
In the meantime, we'll search for a new platelet donor.
Oh, come on, Karen.
It took us three years to find you.
Well, with me, Dr.
Jenkins, and Alec on the case, there's no way we're not going to make this better.
But you heard what she said.
We need to minimize the stress on your body and check you into the hospital tonight.
I'm not going in tonight.
Well, Alec will insist.
He doesn't know that I'm sick.
What the hell's going on? He's receiving his physician of the year award from the American Society of Cardiology, and there is a black-tie gala tomorrow night.
While he'd never admit it, this award means the world to him.
Vivian you know him.
If I tell him now, he'll Blow off the award and jump into savior mode.
I'd never forgive myself.
He won't forgive you for not telling him.
I will.
I will.
After tomorrow.
Vivian I don't know that It is a lifetime of his work being honored.
Karen Let him have this moment.
Do you love me? You know that I do.
Then let me have one last night of happiness before I go into that hospital maybe for good.
I'm begging you, Karen.
Please.
Thanks for coming.
Oh! Marc.
Why are you here? Well, I heard about Joss, and, uh, well, despite all that stupid stuff I said last week about surviving on the inside, I found this website where actual inmates said what really helped them the most was having some of their favorite magazines and books around a juicy novel or two to get their mind off things, and I figured that you'd be seeing her soon, so You're a good man, Marc.
Uh, hey, uh Do you know the Griswolds? What? They're playing the Troubadour next Saturday, and I thought maybe If you'd want to go? Oh, okay.
That sounds like fun.
A little distraction might be nice.
Okay.
So, it'll just be, uh, you and me Together at a show.
You want to invite more people, that's fine.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh, that's weird.
It's Dana from next door.
Hello? I'll be right there.
Thanks.
There's a strange man in our backyard.
I'll drive.
I'll be back.
Okay, this all looks terrific, Phil.
Thanks, mate.
Oh, wait and if we're running low on the hamachi, do the ceviche as a special, okay? I got it under control.
You go see Joss.
And don't give this place a second thought.
Harry Davis, I've been trying to reach you all morning.
Sorry.
I've been a bit, uh, preoccupied.
I'm actually just on my way out.
This will just take a sec.
I got you a meeting with Dispirito.
- Rocco? - Yeah.
The Rocco Dispirito? He's choosing two up-and-coming chefs to develop a cookbook and web series with, and I got you on the short list.
Not the reaction I was expecting.
Look, I don't need a hug, but a grunt of gratitude would be nice.
Yeah.
No, of course.
Thank you.
This is about the kiss.
Damn frickin' kiss.
No.
No, no, no.
I-I-it threw me for like - I made it weird.
- It's fine.
No, it's not.
Look, it was an impulse.
I don't follow them often.
And it's so okay you don't feel the same way.
Ari you're uncomfortable.
Maybe we should think about transferring you to another agent.
T-that is not necessary at seriously, Harry, I believe in you and think you could be a very important client for us.
I don't want to do anything to jeopardize that.
I'll still cover the Dispirito meeting.
Here's some articles to brush up on.
Oh.
We'll talk.
Okay.
This is Ari.
We should call the police.
Shh.
Stay back.
Hello? Lock's not busted.
Everything's still here.
I'll check the yard.
Whoa! Whoa, buddy! Who the hell are you?! - He's with me! - Yeah.
- Miranda? - Mom's home! Hey, little bro.
Whew.
How you doing? Fine.
What are you doing here? Oh, well, we picked Scotty up early from school.
We used his key to get in.
April, his room is adorable.
Thank you.
That's a, uh, great piece of grass you got back there, too.
I see that you're not suffering from the drought.
I'm sorry who are you? Oh! T-this is my boyfriend Ron.
Howdy.
Ron Friedman.
I've heard so much about you both.
Wish I could say the same.
You never mentioned him on the phone, and we talked about a lot.
Well we met a week ago on the cruise.
Yeah, but it feels like we've known each other for years.
He was one of my highest rollers.
And she, uh she was my lucky charm.
Ohh.
So, the ship is docked for a week.
I thought I would come see my little man.
Oh.
She means Scotty.
IGot that.
Well, I see you've already found a snack, Ron.
Why don't I make us all some iced tea? - Sure.
- Great.
- That's great.
- Come on.
Hey, it's me.
I'm sorry I didn't pick up earlier.
I was at the doctor's with Vivian.
Anyway, about Joss I called David, and he was cagey with me.
Do you know what's going on? I'm not on the roster to see her until Thursday.
I'd love to go together uh Call me back when you can, sweetie.
Karen.
Hi, Alec.
Look I-I would've called, but this isn't The kind of thing you say on the phone.
When you told me you were pregnant, I didn't react well.
I was well, my typical self when my better self was required.
It was a lot to process in the moment.
Really, it's my father was a bastard.
Distant, demanding, impossible to please.
I'm a lot like him.
Well, no, that that doesn't mean that you'll be the same kind of father he was.
Well, with two moms like you and Vivian how bad could I screw the kid up? Alec, I don't I don't just just say you're open to talking about it us helping you with the baby.
Vivian's been trying to cover it, but she's been so sad lately.
A-and I know it's because of this.
Just think about it? Okay.
Oh, uh, Karen? If you're free tomorrow night Uh, I'm getting this thing silly A.
S.
C.
Gala.
Anyway, everyone I care about will be there.
Wouldn't feel right without you.
Who wore it best? Not your skanky ass.
- Look at this.
- Oh, that's nasty.
That is wrong on so many different levels.
Mnh-mnh.
Mnh-mnh.
- Hey, Blondie.
- Hey.
You don't look so hot.
Have a sucker.
Thanks.
Where'd you get all this stuff? Hey, uh Hey, Roz, can I speak to Joss? Roz, no Sorry, honey.
I got a sweet tooth.
Buying friends in prison why am I not shocked? Look, I just want to talk to you.
Screw off, Calista.
Look, I just I want to talk to you.
Whatever.
- Whoa! - Ohhh! Ohhh! You freakin' kidding me?! Been waiting to do that for a long time now.
You've been wanting to push me? Oh, hell no! Let's go.
What? That's all you got?! Hey! Hey! Break it up! Carver! Break it up! Hey! Hey! Back it up! You can't put me in here with her.
Thanks, Lisa.
You planned this? I just needed to talk to you.
You can't give her those, you know.
The guard out there agreed I could have them on the table while we talked to just, you know, make it nice for her for a minute.
Hey, she knows I'm here, right? She was called.
Wait! Guard, please! Can you put me in any other cell? Please? You can't change rooms.
This isn't the four seasons.
You think this is funny? No.
I think we're in deep.
And I think the only people that can help us get out is us.
Forget about the lawyers and the police that can't even find the frickin' gun.
I think if you and I put our heads together, we can figure out who might've killed him if we go over every detail of that night.
Then maybe, uh, it will spark something.
What I just how delusional are you, really? I'm not talking to you about anything.
You're the reason that I'm in here.
What did you tell them that I was some murderous, psycho lesbian? Really? Joss, you came after me.
You went after my past, trying to make it look like I was a killer.
You had to know I would protect myself.
And anyway, they had a case against you long before that because you opened your mouth.
I had no intention of hurting you none.
You were my closest friend.
Look at me.
You know me.
No, you know what? You know what I know, Calista? I know that you are ruled by blinding narcissism and selfishness and deceit.
Do you realize that all the people that are in your life are paid to be there so that you can have all the control? And you are incapable of real friendship.
A-and you know what? I-I-I hope that you rot in hell.
I didn't want to control you.
I gave you that job 'cause I believed in you.
That that's it.
And I-I wanted you close because I really loved you.
I-I'm sorry.
Excuse me.
Thank you, love.
Karen.
Oh.
Hi.
These are Alec's parents, Judith and Arthur.
Well, nice to meet you.
I'm Karen.
Karen? The Karen? Is this Stem-cell Karen? Do not embarrass her, mom.
May I give you a hug, dear? Mom.
When Alec told me that he found some stranger with the right blood, I just I-I didn't think that stranger would want to go through all of it.
Well All you have to do is meet her once, and you want to do anything.
Thank you So much.
Well, I should go.
Nice to meet you.
Lucy conked out.
You're stress-eating.
Sure am.
Your sister does that to me, too.
Devoured an entire box of doughnuts the first time she showed up at my door.
Medieval times ended at 8:00.
They should be home by now.
I'm sure everything is fine.
Ron probably just took them out for dessert.
Ron.
What the hell is that? Bringing home some guy she just met when she's got a week to spend with her son? What does she even see in him? Money? No, I'm sure she thinks he's got money, but I'll bet you my R.
V.
That Rolex is fake.
This is so Miranda.
She only picks con men and deadbeats.
No offense.
Mm.
None taken.
Paul was a con man and a deadbeat.
Finally.
Oh.
We thought you'd be sleeping.
He loved it all the horses and it's way past his bedtime.
You should've called.
No one asked you to stay up.
It's only a week.
Maybe less.
Oh, shoot.
Did did I do wrong? Um I'll put Scotty to bed.
Okay, buddy.
Here we go.
We were gonna tell you after we told Scotty.
Uh Ron and I are gonna get married.
She's gonna make me the happiest man in Vegas.
He's got a big house with a pool that Scotty is gonna love.
Yeah.
So you're taking Scotty now.
He's my son.
What, are you crazy? - What is your deal? - What is my deal? Uh, maybe we should sit down.
When were you thinking you were leaving? I know that we are leaving at the end of the week.
Well, shouldn't Scotty finish the school year at least? He is 7.
He'll adjust.
He's been doing really well here.
With all due respect, this is a family matter.
Uh, okay, maybe we should head back to the hotel, hon, and, uh, let everyone sleep on the info, and we can discuss it again in the morning.
There is nothing to discuss.
I've already decided.
This is what's right for my family.
And if my brother can't be happy for me, then he can keep his mouth shut.
Wow.
I really don't get you, Marc.
I mean, you should feel relieved.
You you can finally get out of here, go anywhere.
You're free.
God.
Hey.
Hey.
There she is.
Hey, gorgeous.
Yeah? Really? Yeah, really.
Whew.
This onesie it's it's really your thing.
- Great color.
- Yeah.
You know how hard it is to take your shirt off to pee? - Hi.
- Hey.
Now a few orders of business.
Um Your mum's ship finally docked in, uh, Finland.
That's her number, and I haven't been able to reach David, but - Do we have to talk about this? I - No, I was just gonna say that I have complete faith in him.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
I've looked into him, and he's he's good.
I love you.
I love you.
Now for my plans.
Your Really? Oh, yes, milady.
I have been up to some stuff.
- Boom.
- What what is this? My official offer on the house.
What house? Your house, the house that you loved our house in, you know, Fryman Canyon.
Is this the one with the crap kitchen? Hey, what's a kitchen? What's a kitchen? You're a chef.
Yeah, a chef with a meeting with Rocco Dispirito.
Yeah, I'm making inroads, Joss.
I am moving up.
And we can afford to do construction on this or any other house, for that matter.
Oh, I-I don't know what to say, Harry.
Say that you'll live with me in the great house with the Crap kitchen once you get out, which will be soon, but I-I'm gonna wait for you to decorate it because we both know I am terrible in the decorating department.
Uh, yeah, I just Should we really be talking like this about the future? I Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah.
What am I looking at? A copy of the flight manifest showing that Eva Petrov was en route to Rome during the time of the murder.
Great.
Proves nothing.
She could've had someone kill him.
What about his other whores? Their alibis all checked out, too.
- What about their husbands? - Calista.
And I suppose the rental-car search nothing? I'm sorry.
You're sorry.
There's something else.
Great.
What? Josslyn's lawyer found e-mails you wrote to Luca, saying you wanted to kill him.
That's an expression, Patty.
I've said that to I don't even know how many schmucks, that I wanted to kill them.
Not a great defense.
I'm sorry.
You know what? Stop apologizing and just do your job, okay? I assume you've kept me on as your attorney because of my experience with criminal defense? Mm.
It would behoove you to trust that experience.
Or this next move won't work.
Fine.
What? Well, I've come around to your idea.
I think you should tell the police you and Joss had a plan to set Luca up for the divorce.
Finally.
But then Joss went rogue and murdered him instead.
You freaked out, you fled the scene, which was what was caught on that video, and you lied about it because it looked so bad.
You'll still have to cop to obstruction, but that's only 3 to 5, versus 20 to life, and I will make sure that you get the Martha Stewart-style treatment.
Deals are for fools and guilty people.
They're for people with no better option, and that, dear, is you.
I want my day in court.
I want my day in court.
You put me up on a stand, there's no jury that will convict me of this.
Get character witnesses.
Who? I've gone to all your "friends" in the business, asking them to speak up on your behalf, write a letter of support anything.
No one will touch this with a 10-foot pole.
And you can forget anybody who worked for you.
They're seen as coerced.
So, tell me Who is there? You should've seen him.
He was so hopeful.
He was planning the whole future, you know? He'd waste his whole life waiting for me.
I'm telling you, he would, Roz.
Well, if your lawyer was worth his spit, he should've brought you a deal.
Yeah 10 to 12 if I confess to the crime and say that Calista planned it.
Oh, so, you're gonna take it? My lawyer says I definitely shouldn't.
Well, it ain't his life on the line.
What are you saying that I should confess to a crime that I didn't commit? I'd rot in here till I was like 40.
Look, I'm just saying, think about it for two seconds before you reject it out of hand.
What happens if you lose at trial? Worst-case? Well, life, but That's one heavy roll of the dice, man.
No, but David said we'd appeal and appeal, you know? Okay.
You see Keke over there? She was offered a plea and didn't take it.
She swears from here to Sunday she's innocent, just like you.
She's been appealing for nine years, when the plea would've had her out in five.
She missed her son's whole childhood.
Sometimes you just take the plea because not taking it's worse.
Hey.
Where are the kids? Upstairs.
What are you doing? Ronald Friedman's a surprisingly popular name in Nevada.
Aha.
Here he is.
With his Tommy Bahamas and all of his chins.
Oh, no.
What? Does he have a record? From the Las Vegas Business Chronicle "How Ron Friedman Became Las Vegas' Air-Conditioning Guru.
" He services 40% of the city's hotels? "The king of cool" is loaded.
I'm missing something.
Why is this bad? Because now I know Miranda's gonna go through with it the wedding, moving Scotty.
April, just this marriage is doomed to fail.
Maybe she'll surprise us.
Maybe Miranda can finally turn things around.
Look, I wouldn't want to marry Ron.
But he seems nice enough.
"Nice enough"? And he'll provide the security that your sister clearly wants.
I mean I understand her impulse.
Uh, her impulse to what? To not struggle, not worry, be taken care of.
At what price? And to teach that to Scotty that it's okay to just marry some stranger for money? Come on.
What about love? You know? I mean, she threatens to kill him in several e-mails.
Here And again right here.
That's just the way Calista talks.
Her defense will likely argue that, but the ability to use her own words against her at a trial that's a step in the right direction.
The more doubt that we can cast on her David, I want to talk about the deal.
Uh, w-we took the deal off the table.
No, you took the deal off the table before we could properly discuss it, so I want you to level with me, okay? Not tell me what you think I want to hear or just the truth.
If we reject this plea and we go to trial, what are my chances? The case against you is strong.
And if it were anyone else I would advise them to take the deal.
So, why shouldn't I, then? Well, for one thing, you'll be quite compelling on the stand.
You have a goodness, uh, likability, a messy sort of innocence that can't be taught.
And I believe a jury will recognize you couldn't possibly have done this.
That's it? Of course that's not it.
They have no murder weapon, but Calista has I can't believe that we're gonna throw all my chips down on on, what, my "messy goodness"? - David, I - Joss, l-listen to me.
You know what? No, stop.
I'm sorry.
II really I need to be realistic right now, okay, David? And I know that you have killed yourself on this case, and I am so grateful, a-and but Look, despite your best intentions, I have just been given the worst-case scenario time after time, and I really feel like if things keep going this way and we reject the plea and then we lose at trial I'm gonna be in here for the rest of my life.
Do you understand that? If you lost, we would appeal, Joss.
David, I would like you to take the deal.
Joss I am strenuously advising David! Take the deal.
Mom? Mom.
Mom! M No, mom, just tell dad to hit "cancel ride.
" I told you I was picking you up.
You look absolutely gorgeous.
Thank you for coming.
I wouldn't miss it.
Vivian's in the bedroom.
You think you could get her to hustle? Yeah, n-no, no, mom.
No, yeah, no, I'm here.
Knock, knock.
Aww.
I knew you'd come.
Did Alec tell you to hurry me along? We're not even close to being late.
It won't stop shaking.
May I? Last time we did this, it was under Very different circumstances.
I'm worried about the rash.
I don't think the makeup's enough.
What if Alec notices? That's the beauty of black it goes with everything.
Thank you for letting me have tonight.
Now, let's finish you up before Alec has a fit.
And how about this room, huh? Yep.
This is great.
Wow.
My girlfriend will love this view.
I-I don't think she's seen it at night.
Is that right? When's she coming back from her trip? Hmm? Uh yeah.
I don't know.
Every time she's set to come home, she finds another corner of the globe she has to see.
Wish I had the freedom to travel.
And this converted garage could be her office, you know? H-her business is only gonna grow, so she'll need her own space.
And you you said the seller's willing to put that wall back up in the master, yeah? Oh, yeah.
Great, 'cause Joss will definitely want a second bedroom up there for guests.
And maybe a baby someday, hmm? Oh.
I-I-I'm sorry.
That was - It's all right - I know eventually, she, um Yeah, she wants to be a mother.
Then maybe she'd better get back to you and get started, then, huh? You never know how long these things can take.
Gosh, you know, I envy you just at the beginning of things.
Two people planning a life, all the time in the world.
Oh.
Sorry.
Hello? You want to talk? Let's talk.
Would you like, uh, some coffee? No, I'm fine.
Marc, what's this about? It's about Scotty.
I already told you Please just let me say this.
I think you should reconsider and let Scotty finish the school year here.
I can look after him.
They're more than welcome to keep living here.
And this way, you can give the whole Vegas thing a test run before you move Scotty out there.
Oh, a test run? So you don't think Ron and I are gonna last.
I think that you and Ron don't really know each other.
Well, I don't care what you think.
What about what Scotty thinks? 'Cause I know for a fact he's happy here.
He's bonded with his teacher, Mrs.
Watson, and he's getting great reports, and he's got a little best buddy down the street, and he plays with him every day.
And he's got you for a good-time pal? He has real roots here.
Oh.
Says the mobile-home moocher.
I mean, when was the last time you stayed anywhere for more than four months? What do you know about roots? Let alone parenting.
He knows a lot, Miranda.
He has been a father to Scotty a great one.
Just please stay out of this, April.
This is my house, and I'm talking.
He reads to Scotty every night.
He makes his breakfast every morning.
He packs his lunches with cute, little notes to remind him that he's loved.
He bathes him.
He dresses him.
He takes him to the zoo every weekend.
He takes him to school every morning.
He moves his schedule around so that he can be here when Scotty gets home.
Your brother has stepped up.
Is that right? Yeah.
Was he stepping up when he fell off the wagon two weeks ago? What? Wow.
Hi, mom.
It's me.
Hi.
Oh, no, no, mom, please don't cry, because then I'll cry, and there's really no reason to.
No, I'm okay.
Oh, yeah, yeah, I have I have an excellent lawyer.
Mm-hmm.
No, I haven't heard from Savi.
Yeah, I-I'm sure she will, too.
Yeah.
I love you, too.
Uh, l-listen, mom, I um I just need to talk to you because I, uh I made a decision, and and I need you to, um J-just be supportive and because I know you probably won't understand, okay? I'm gonna be in here for a while, mom.
Only 20 minutes left on the Carver deal.
Do you want me to get Santos on the phone to accept? Limo's here! You are so beautiful.
Do you have your speech? Right here.
- Your throat lozenges? - I got those, too.
Reading glasses? Yes.
All good.
Have everything.
Okay.
Well, let's go.
In a minute.
Vivian! Call 911! Vivian! My friend just collapsed.
District attorney? Please begin.
State your name.
Calista Raines.
And confirm for the record that you are willfully speaking to me without your attorney present.
That's correct.
All right, Ms.
Raines.
How would you like to revise your statement? Uh I-I killed my husband alone.
Josslyn Carver had nothing to do with it.
