Previously on "The Cleaning Lady"...

I asked you not to involve the FBI.

Mom, he kidnapped Luca.

Why do you keep defending him?

What do you think you're doing, huh?

I said, he's asleep. Just leave...

Let go!

Marco!

What happened to Marco was an accident.

We're not gonna let anything happen to our family.

The Cortez case was only taken away from me

because of a technicality.

Sleeping with a CI is not a technicality.

My lawyer says the judge can be easily swayed,

so you should be out by next week.

Judge Tuckerson. He's corrupt as hell.

We got to stop the bribe before it happens.

I need to get the hell out of here.

Arman cut a deal with the feds.

He's your rat.

Now that I have so many friends looking out for me,

I know who I can trust

and who I cannot.

Everything in the bin, please.

- Thank you. - Ma'am, over here.

Arms out.

You're all set.

Phone number two.

Look what they did to you.

What Hayak did.

He sent two guys.

And if I don't get out of here,

he'll send more to finish the job.

Alright, we may have shut down the Crypto account,

but it's no time for a victory lap.

Keep your eyes on Nadia Morales.

Make sure she doesn't tap into funds

that they've got squirreled away that we don't know about

to bribe the judge.

Oh, there she is.

Miss ASAC Russo, tell me

that Judge Tuckerson got moved off the case.

Our friends in Public Corruption got a different idea.

If Morales finds money for the payoff,

they want it to change hands.

No. We can't can't that chance.

If Judge Tuckerson doesn't get his bribe,

Morales rots in prison. Done.

Not up to you, Miller.

If we catch Tuckerson red-handed,

a lot more guys like Arman will stay behind bars.

Alright.

Well, let's just see how it plays out.

Stay on 'em, guys.

So, um, you know, once...

Once we seal the deal on this case...

No.

You don't even know what I have to say.

Come on, Russo.

I know the Cortez case better than anyone.

Well, as long as Maya's in with Cortez, you won't be.

Katherine, just get me back in long enough to get her out.

We owe her that.

I owe her that.

You know in good conscience

I can't put you back on that case,

but hopefully for me, that'll soon be someone else's problem.

Yeah, that's right. Still can't believe you're leaving me.

To run Miami, of all places.

The promotion's not a done deal, so don't screw it up for me.

Oh, whoa. Would you look at that?

Our boy Morales is back on his feet.

He already has a visitor.

And how's Luca doing?

He doesn't quite understand.

He keeps asking for his dad,

so I have to explain it all over again.

How are you holding up?

I feel like I failed everyone.

Hey, don't blame yourself.

The setback in my case had to do with a lot of factors.

We don't have a lot of time to regroup.

So we have to figure this out now.

I spoke to your team.

You did?

You still have a good case,

but they have to borrow to pay the higher fees.

Borrow from... From who?

Someone she knows.

I told her not to do that.

She said it's the only option with the time you have left.

It's the worst option.

Time's up, Morales. Say your goodbyes.

Just let her do what she needs to do,

and be careful in here.

That's not how you survive.

Here you go.

It's kind of an odd place to be

when you're about to bury your husband.

Are you following me?

No. No.

Just got a message that Arman had a visitor.

Thought I'd see what's up.

I mean, I know that you had nothing to do

with your husband's death,

but the first suspect is always the spouse,

especially those who have friends with reach,

even in prison.

I don't know what you think he's been doing,

but Arman was almost beaten to death.

And you let that happen.

Thony, hey, I can't help it

if the bad guys take each other out.

Listen, Thony, I mean it.

Doesn't look good, you being here.

I'm here because Arman saved my son's life,

and he deserved to know that he's safe.

If you want to follow me, I'm on my way to the airport

to pick up Marco's parents for the funeral.

No parking.

Unattended vehicles will be towed.

I just wish Marco wasn't the reason

Nanay and Tatay are finally gonna be able to see my kids.

Tatay's gonna have lots of questions. Lots of them.

We just have to stick to the story, Fi.

Marco's wallet was emptied out.

It looked like he was mugged.

Even that sounds awful to say.

I know.

There they are.

Andito kami. Tay.

Ay.

Hello! Look who's here!

Lolo! Lola!

Whoa, look at you!

You've gotten so big!

Oh. Mwah.

Jazmine. Such a beauty you are.

Ah. And Chris.

You're a young man already.

Oh. Ah, good boy, good boy.

Here. Let me... Let me get your suitcases.

You guys will be sleeping in Mom's room, so...

- We brought some things. - Ooh!

Let me show you.

We weren't sure if the boys

had something to wear for the funeral.

We brought something.

Yeah, Marco was a little taller than you,

but it'll be okay, huh? It'll be fine.

I'll get it.

- Hello. - Thony De La Rosa?

Yes, may I help you?

Detective Lana Flores.

I'm in charge of the investigation

of the death of Marco De La Rosa.

I have some questions for you about you and your husband.

Um, yes, of course.

But, um, my family just arrived from the Philippines.

Maybe we could talk about this another time.

If this is about my son, I want to speak with her.

I want to know what the police are doing

to find who killed my son.

So, you and Marco were separated?

Well, only because, uh, I had to bring Luca here

for a bone marrow transplant.

But then, when he came here, why were he and Luca at a motel

instead of here with you?

We had an argument.

Um, Marco was angry, so he took Luca.

And that's when you put out the APB?

Mm-hmm.

Wh... What is an APB?

It's an alert to inform police to look for someone.

You tried to get Marco arrested?

No. I-I-I was just trying to find Luca.

He was a good father. He would never hurt his son.

- I know. - Jacinto, tama na.

Did you think he was endangering your son?

No. He was just upset.

Maybe I should come back at another time?

Yes, please. Let me see you out.

Tingnan mo ang ginawa mo.

Don't wait too long to call.

Thank you.

I'll call you soon.

If she had come back to Manila when he asked,

he would still be alive.

If... If she had not called the police,

he would be alive!

My son would be alive if it were not for you!

Tay...

Don't over-think it.

Roulette is purely a game of luck.

Like when we first met.

Robert.

Nadia.

As stunning as ever.

Please, don't let me stop you.

I'm not here to play games, Robert.

- I'm just here to talk about... - A loan.

I know.

But wouldn't you rather receive a gift?

A gift?

Place your bet.

If you win,

I'll give you the money you need.

I need $1.6 million.

You sure you want to make that bet?

Always.

The whole point of having a lot of money

is that you can play however you want

with whomever you want.

No more bets.

Big money, big money, come on!

It was so close.

Let's sit down for a drink, talk about what you need.

Scotch?

It's the Sherry Oak 25.

You remembered.

My mind is like a steel trap.

For everything.

Thank you for considering the loan, Robert.

We know it's a lot, but we have collateral.

Arman's vintage 1970 DeVille,

the Caddy he just bought last year...

I can't pretend those interest me.

And there's also the house.

I want a piece of the gun business.

I hear it was quite lucrative

before Armando landed behind bars.

I-I can't speak for my husband.

Yet here you are, negotiating his loan.

And let me guess... the cash to buy his freedom?

Can't imagine him choosing to stay behind bars

over sharing a piece of the pie.

Good.

I'll be in touch as soon as the funds are ready.

Rat.

You better watch out.

Snitches get stitches.

They say never judge a man by his first round,

but, man, you took the crown, homey.

Sit.

You know, a lot of us didn't think

you were gonna walk out of there.

Lotta these fools, they lost a lot of good wagers on you.

But we're impressed.

- What do you want? - Tu, hermano.

We can always use someone like you in our crew.

And what are you offering?

Protection.

You know we like to take care of our own, que no?

And word is, your boy,

he's gonna make another move on you again.

Soon.

Then it's not protection I want.

It's Hayak.

One more.

Mommy, I'm full.

- Really? - Yes.

Okay.

Go brush your teeth then.

No. Not till he finishes his plate.

We don't force him to eat when he's not hungry anymore.

Because you spoil him.

I think I know what's best for my son.

Do you?

Jacinto. Jacinto...

You're all done here.

Jaz, can you help Luca get to bed, please?

Sure.

Come on, Luca.

What kind of PJs do you want? Spaceships or dinosaurs?

Dinosaurs.

What kind of wife puts an APB on her husband?

Marco shouldn't have taken Luca.

Everything I did, I did for my son.

Then why not come back to Manila when the transplant was done?

If Marco took Luca, there must be good reason!

No, Tatay, it's not Thony's fault.

Marco was a gambling addict, and you know it.

Okay, when he came to Vegas, it got out of control.

He even stole the money Thony saved to save Luca's life.

Marco was not at the motel because of Thony.

He was running from people he owed money to.

Marco started gambling because she drove him to it.

Oh, he made his own decisions.

No.

You made him feel like he was not enough.

But he was.

My son was enough!

That's why we're going to honor his wishes.

Marco did not want his son to grow up Tago ng Tago.

We're taking Luca back to the Philippines with us.

- You can't do that. - Mm-hmm.

How can you agree to this?

Luca belongs in Manila.

- I am his mother. - This is why

- Marco turned out like this. - Marco wanted this.

Because of him! You spoiled him, everything! It's...

Shut up! Everyone, stop!

They're not taking Luca.

They have no right.

They're just upset. I...

I shouldn't have said anything about Marco's gambling.

No. They made their decision before they even got here,

with Marco just blaming me for taking Luca all those months.

Luca wants Chris to tuck him in,

but I can't find him anywhere.

Come on, Chris.

Where are you?

Chris.

Chris.

Chris, are you okay?

Hey. Are you okay?

- Chris... - Yes, yes.

Anak, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry you had to sit through that,

but you gotta come home, alright?

- No. - Come on.

You lied, Mom.

Uncle Marco didn't die because of his gambling.

He died because of me.

- No. - Yes.

It's not your fault.

Everything I said about Marco was true.

He was an addict. His gambling hurt all of us.

Nothing we do now can change what he did

or what happened. Okay?

All that matters now is... is protecting you.

I should just turn myself in.

No.

No. You can't do that. Okay?

You can... Hey, hey, hey, look at me.

You can never tell anyone about this ever.

You understand that, huh?

Come on.

Means we just keep lying, right?

To everyone.

I know his schedule.

Who protects him. How he thinks.

You tell me where and when, we'll take care of him, homes.

No, I'll take care of Hayak.

I just need him alone.

He conducts business at the laundry.

Isolate him there.

Yeah, we can make that happen,

but that kind of service,

it's gonna require more than your canteen money.

What do you need?

Yo, I got a girl and a baby on the outside.

Diapers ain't cheap, you feel me?

Understood.

I'll have my wife send out a payment to your girl.

Yeah, alright.

Yo, uh, Arman...

you sure you ready for this now?

I'm ready.

No, I don't like it. It's itchy.

Come here, my love.

Lolo and Lola brought this Barong especially for you.

Don't you want to look nice for Daddy's service?

Yeah?

No, I just want Daddy.

Luca, please.

Sandali, sandali.

You know, Luca,

this Barong is very special.

Your Tatay wore it

the day that Tita Fi was baptized.

He picked it himself,

said it was for "Fi Fi" day.

Now you can wear it

for Tatay's day, okay?

Okay, Lolo.

We've got a problem.

The Feds have been watching me all morning,

so I can't meet Kamdar to get the money to the judge.

You have to.

I can't.

We're about to leave for my husband's funeral.

And you're gonna handle it

so I don't have to go to my husband's funeral.

Fi, I need you to cover for me.

What? Where the hell are you going?

Just one last thing.

Please.

Seriously?

Now? Come on, Thony.

I really don't know what it is about you and this guy,

but you're about to bury your husband.

You didn't see what Hayak did to him.

Please.

Just one thing, and I'll meet you there.

Just tell them I-I went for flowers or something.

Fine, but, hey, you have less than an hour.

Don't be late.

Hey. Hey, whoa, whoa,

whoa, whoa. Maya, Maya, look. I just want to...

- I just want to talk. - No, Garrett. You can't be here.

Why? What's wrong?

Are you... Are you safe?

What do you want, Garrett?

I heard you're dealing for Cortez now.

How the hell did that happen?

Well, you pushed me, pushing me closer and closer to him,

and, what, now you have a problem with it?

Come on, Garrett. What'd you expect?

You disappeared over a year ago.

No word, no explanation.

- No, no, I'm sorry, Maya. - No.

You don't just get to show up out of the blue and say that.

I had no choice, Maya.

They pulled me off the case.

Yeah.

'Cause that's all I was to you.

Another case, right?

That's not true.

I'm here because I want to help you.

You know, if you need money or a place to go...

No, you know what I don't need is your sympathy

and your stupid apologies.

I'm fine without you,

better off, honestly.

Expecting someone?

Can you just go?

That's what you're good at, right?

Come here. Look at me.

Hey, look at me. Just tell me what's going on.

- Uh, just don't... - Hey.

Okay, no, I'm sorry, alright? I'm sorry.

Wait, you're sleeping with him now?

Cortez?

You gotta be kidding.

Huh?

You know he's dangerous.

Maya, you know this.

Don't come back.

- Yeah? - We've been tailing Nadia all morning,

and she just left the bank that holds the deed to her house.

Alright. It's on.

I'm here to see Mr. Kamdar.

Mrs. Morales sent me.

I believe she called.

This way.

Yeah?

Mr. Kamdar.

You checked she wasn't wired?

Not yet.

Okay.

I've got it.

I've never cared very much for last-minute changes.

Where's Nadia?

She was being watched.

That's why s-she sent me instead.

You understand I don't trust anyone I don't know.

So I'd like you to do something for me.

Strip.

Don't worry. They can't see in.

Let me help.

What exactly is your relationship to Nadia?

I-I work for them as a cleaning lady.

Sometimes, they send me to do other things.

That's a lot of responsibility

for a maid.

No one pays attention to the cleaning lady.

It's clean.

Thank you for indulging me.

Please get dressed.

Don't ever bring anyone back here

without checking them first.

Oh, dear.

Look at this mess.

But you're a cleaning lady, aren't you?

How long would it take to clean that up?

Uh, n-n...

I'm kidding.

You're not dressed to clean.

I'll get you Nadia's money, and then

you're free to go.

You remind me of him.

So handsome.

So smart.

He was such a good boy.

Hey, uh, Chris?

Why don't you go help your sister

finish setting up inside, huh?

No. You stay here with me

to greet the guests, Anak, huh?

Hey.

Where's Thony?

She just went to go get some flowers.

Now?

I'm sure she'll be back in a minute.

Uh, uh, there's Samentha.

I'm just gonna thank her for the food.

Couple of stitches popped.

That's all.

Butterfly closure oughta do it.

I think I'm gonna need a bigger bandage.

Blood seeped through the last one.

No need for that. This'll help.

Can I get hands over here, stat?

Alright, I got her.

Nadia's rolling in now.

My bet, she's got the bribe in her bag.

You got eyes on Judge Tuckerson?

Judge is in his usual spot, usual time.

And that is why I like to stay unpredictable.

No one can pin me down.

Unfortunately, neither could your wife.

Ouch.

Alright, team's in place.

And here we go.

Bonjour, madame Morales. Comment allez vous ?

Je vais bien, merci. Et vous ?

Très bien. Un moment, s'il vous plaît.

And the maitre d' is heading

towards Judge Tuckerson now.

What the hell?

What? What's going on?

Talk to me, Russo. You there?

- Do not get out of your car. - Why?

It looks like he's bringing her a takeout bag.

She's coming back out.

It's a bust.

Voilà, madame.

- Merci. Au revoir. - Au revoir.

Wait a minute. So th... This wasn't a hand-off of the bribe?

No.

They knew we were watching.

It was a decoy.

Alright, it still could be happening somewhere else.

Mr. Stephens?

I'll take care of these. Thank you.

Thank you.

Oh, my God. You made it. Everybody's been asking for you.

Yeah, I-I'm sorry I couldn't get here sooner.

I-It's okay. You're here now.

It's time, Thony.

Judge Tuckerson.

You sure no one saw you or followed you here?

All clear, Your Honor.

It's all here.

Thank you.

I'm sorry, my man.

I really didn't want it to go down like this.

But in this house, highest bidder wins.

As I always said,

if you want things done right, do it yourself.

It doesn't have to go on like this, Hayak.

You and I can both walk out of here alive.

Too late for that.

It won't be long now.

Your heart will seize, and it'll be done.

I always loved you more than my own son.

Luca's asking for you.

Again.

I-I can't do this right now.

Just... Just... Just get Auntie T or something.

He doesn't want his mom right now. He wants you.

Come on, Chris. He just lost his dad,

and you're the closest thing he has to that,

so whatever you're feeling right now,

it can't be worse than Luca.

Nay.

I'm sorry I said those things about Marco's gambling.

I-I didn't want that to be your last memory of him.

Your Tatay and I made...

a lot of mistakes raising the two of you.

We spoiled Marco, but...

that doesn't mean we love you less.

We just thought that you were stronger.

It didn't mean I didn't need you, Nanay.

I know.

But look what you've done.

Coming here,

raising two kids

in a new country, alone.

You're a good mom.

I understand why Thony and Luca would like to stay with you.

But your Tatay, he...

He has other ideas.

I know you think you know what's best for your son.

I used to feel that, too.

But when you bury a child...

you feel like you failed them.

It's something

most parents never want to imagine.

I understand,

because I had to face that possibility every day, Tatay,

and that's why I did what I did to save Luca.

That was necessary, I know.

And now Marco will live on in Luca.

But you see, that boy

is the only thing I have left of my son.

Yes. But he's not your son.

He's mine.

And we are making a life here with Fiona and the kids.

The prayer for the dead asks God

to help the soul of Marco De La Rosa

for whom we make this novena.

Let us kneel.

We entrust our son to your mercy.

Please forgive his sins,

especially those that are unconfessed.

May your perpetual light shine upon him.

Now he is freed, through your blood on the cross,

through the blows to your face,

and through the crown of your thorns that pierced your head,

deliver him from all evil,

from the rigor of injustice,

from the torment of conscience,

and from all darkness.

Welcome him into Paradise,

where there will be no more sorrow,

no more weeping or pain.

Give him the blessings of the life to come

as he enters into the kingdom of peace and light.
