All language subtitles for 2017 - A Deadly Affair

Wait.

Wait.

Wait, stop, stop.

Mary, come on. Oh, my God.

I cannot believe I just did that.

You didn't do anything.

Trevor, I'm married.

Everybody makes mistakes.

Okay.

Where's your husband right now?

Not here.

You're never ready. It's none of your
business.

Mary, you deserve someone who's going to
cherish you, who'll be there for you.

Everybody makes mistakes.

I was lonely.

We had too much to drink.

We're really good friends, but Trevor,
we've got to be honest about this.

Don't tell Susan.

Trevor.

I know that you may feel bad about this,
like it's unfair to Charlie, but

it's almost 2 a .m.

At least part of you has to wonder,
where's he?

Who's he with right now?

Hello?

Hey. All right. I didn't mean to wake
you.

Where were you?

Working on the house.

You were supposed to come home for
dinner.

I'm sorry. I got hung up.

I was going to jump in the shower.

Do you know what today is?

Thursday.

It's our anniversary, Charlie.

Why didn't you... It was supposed to be
a surprise.

I made you dinner and then we were
gonna... Hey, let's heat it up.

Right now, come on. I'm sure it's still
good.

Right? You couldn't have eaten all of
it.

No.

I... Susan came over and had dinner with
me.

Susan came over, did she?

Yeah.

I need some company.

Charlie, what happened to your back?

What do you mean?

These scratches.

You know, I was sliding on my back under
the new cabinets, and I guess a couple

of the screws aren't flush.

A screw did that?

Yeah, it works like it's a dangerous
place.

Hey.

I'm sorry that I missed dinner.

Let me make it up to you.

I'll make dinner tomorrow.

Whatever you want.

The food will not be as good.

But the company will be better than
Susan, right?

Susan.

Better than Susan.

Spirit fishing?

Search and rescue operation.

Lost food.

Just leave it.

Uh -oh.

Yeah, I know. And it's the last bottle.

Enough, Russ.

Fifty minutes left on the meatloaf.

Yeah, so I'll be back in ten.

Hey, Charlie, really.

Hey.

An anniversary dinner might not.

Need to be on your anniversary.

But it does need a bottle of fine wine.

For a fine woman.

Huh?

I'll be back before you can say spoon
soup.

Oh, Mary.

Don't you look lovely? What are you
doing here?

There you are.

We were grabbing some wine for dinner,
and I thought, Charlie, and I thought,

why not share both?

Just the two of us? Yeah, they were.

Ooh,

one bottle of wine for each of us.

I smell some lowered inhibitions.

It's unbelievable.

I mean, that's two wrecks in two weeks.

So anyway, her car's in the shop first,
and until then, my car's hers.

Wow, that's rough.

Can you guys imagine me driving
Charlie's truck?

No. No.

What an interesting reading choice,
Mary.

Well, I hand the classics to the kids
all day, so I figured I would give

a refresher, too.

You have high school girls reading Kate
Chopin.

Charlie, do you know what your wife is
reading about?

Can't say I do.

You must have a hard time getting
married then.

You can't say I do?

I'm just not much of a reader.

How can you say that? You don't read. I
don't really see the point.

Just for me. The point is to broaden
your horizons.

You know, you escape your life for a
little bit.

Right? I mean, that's why I read and
write.

Well, I like my life.

So why would I want to escape it?

Mary, you get what I'm saying, right?

I'm not much of a reader either.

You're a lawyer.

You read.

Mostly traffic citations and wine
labels.

Great year.

To being together.

God knows we've all had too many lonely
nights lately.

Susan has been having an affair with her
work.

For the last few nights, I've been home
alone with no car, no company.

At least you have your reading.

And writing. So, Susan, are you working
last night, too?

Really hard case.

Thank you, guys. It was lovely.

Are you sure you don't want to kill it
off, Nick?

I couldn't. You guys enjoy. I insist.

Good night. Oh, by the way, I need my
car, Mom.

You and Susan had dinner last night?

No.

So?

I got pissed.

So I threw it in the trash.

And then I felt stupid, so... You lied.

Charlie?

I'm really sorry I lied to you.

It was really stupid.

And I feel...

You

go.

You too.

Oh, make sure you pay attention to the
beginning. There's a lot of hidden clues

in there.

You must be in Miss Keegan's class. No,
ma 'am. Just curious.

Enjoy.

Hey. Who is that?

My neighbor.

Did he say something to you?

No. Just curious.

He's cute.

Are you hungry?

Well, he's married, Crystal.

But what are you doing here?

Hi, Alice. Just thought we could catch
up.

I don't know the last time I saw you
outside of school.

Is Charlie around?

No, he's at the site. Nice.

Have you been out there lately?

Not much.

You know you can tell me anything,
right?

Are you guys okay?

Yes, everything's fine.

You, uh, you want some tequila?

He's never home anymore.

I mean, he stops in for food and
clothes, but...

Like he's a goat.

But you know how he is.

He just gets focused on stuff and... He
missed our anniversary.

He made dinner and everything.

You could have called me.

I would have come over if you were
alone, I mean.

He told you, didn't he?

Everybody makes mistakes.

That's what... I just kept out feeling
like there's something

wrong.

Like maybe there's somebody else.

Are you saying... Are you having an
affair?

What?

No, I was talking about Charlie.

I... Sorry.

Pay no attention to me. That's just
Akilah talking.

Mary, you can tell me.

We're just going through a rough patch.
All couples go through it.

Perfectly normal.

Right?

I think if your instincts are telling
you something isn't right... Maybe it's

time you both clear the air.

You're right, I will.

Hey, I was just about to call you.

Charlie?

Charlie? Charlie?

Charlie, what the hell?

Charlie?

Good. Fantastic.

Listen, I'm glad they got the daughter,
but they shouldn't have gotten there by

themselves.

All right, gotta go.

What are we looking at?

Looks like they fled around back.

Looks like a single stab wound to the
back.

Have you thought of a murder weapon?

Not yet.

Where's the wife?

In front.

Ms. Saunders, Detective Brady Malone.

Think you'd be able to answer a few
questions for me?

You

told

Deputy Davies that you'd gotten a phone
call.

What can you tell me about that?

It was from Charlie.

Or at least I think it was.

When I answered there, Richard.

Breathing?

Breathing. Heavy breathing.

It frightened me.

Did you think the person breathing could
be Charlie?

Maybe.

The reception hearers.

Did he sound like he was in trouble?

You've been drinking tonight?

No.

Well, I had a drink earlier with my
sister -in -law.

It was just one.

One and a half, maybe.

I'm sorry.

It's a very unique wedding band.

Thank you.

My husband had them made for us.

Here's one just like it.

Did he wear his every day?

Yes, of course.

Why? I'm sure it's nothing.

But right now he isn't.

What do you mean?

He was just old enough that I viewed him
as kind of a parent.

Except I didn't have to worry about him
telling on me or anything.

It doesn't feel right.

Burying him without it.

My brother was kind.

And he was gentle.

A truly creative soul.

And he was loyal.

So loyal.

And that just isn't fair.

Keep watching over me, Charlie.

I still need you.

I should have talked about the little
owl.

His nickname for you?

You know, I met him working at the
dentist's office.

Right, right. He knocked his front teeth
out.

Construction accident.

Yeah.

He didn't have insurance then, so... He
spent hours just sitting in the waiting

room.

I was in charge of answering the phones.

And, as you can imagine, a lot of people
who call the dentist aren't speaking

very clearly, so...

He just sat there listening to me for
hours, say, over and over again.

Who?

It's funny.

And if he's up there somewhere,
listening to my thoughts, he's hearing

exact same thing.

Because I need to know who did this.

Who did this?

I know, Mary.

I know.

I'm going to pay my respects.

Mary. No, Trevor.

I can't stand seeing you in pain like
this.

Please don't push me away. Not now.
Don't make me.

How have you been holding up?

We're all here for you.

Anything you need, we'll get through
this as a family. Thank you.

It's good to look at you.

She will be.

You know how close they were.

Mrs. Saunders, I'm Trevor.

So sorry for your loss.

Charlie was a very good friend of mine.

I don't recall him mentioning your name.

Well, he was a social butterfly, even if
he seemed quiet.

I guess there's a lot I didn't know.
Excuse me?

You're lucky my mother is here.

I would never embarrass Charlie in front
of her.

What do you mean?

I saw you.

I know what you did.

He isn't even in the ground, and here
you are standing next to that guy.

He didn't... Crystal, what are you
talking about?

Did you do it? Did you... Did you kill
him?

No. You're lying.

I know you're...

He was a good man, Mary.

And he deserved better than this.

He deserved better than you.

Don't make me do this.

Don't make me tell.

What was that about?

Thought after a week she might calm down
But

well she can be stubborn

Does she really think I did it

I think she just wants an answer Have
you heard anything new

from the police nothing

Crystal's just confused.

She'll come around.

I hope so.

By the way, did you find the... Oh, oh,
yes.

Of course, it's right over here.

Good morning, Miss Holmes.

If you don't mind, I'd like to ask you a
few questions.

We were able to recover most of the
information on Charlie's cell phone.

He wasn't texting someone named
Cassandra, was he? Cassandra Jane?

Not that I'm aware of. Well, because she
was at his funeral and I went to her

website. Mary, trust me.

We are exploring every possibility.

Now, his last two text messages to
you... I'm sorry. Please don't be mad.

Yeah. But he couldn't have sent them.

I didn't receive them until after he
was... Oh.

Turns out they were sent several minutes
before you received them. Bad

reception.

If it was Charlie, you have any idea
what they could have been in reference

Did you fight that day?

Have a disagreement of any kind that he
might need to apologize for?

No.

You and Charlie having difficulties?

Difficulties? In your marriage.

No. Why would... No, just... Him not
wearing his wedding band and all.

You know, maybe it'd be better if we
can... You got a warrant?

Well? Just exploring every possibility.

Yeah, maybe you should possibly start by
finding the murder weapon instead of

torturing the mourning widow.

I'll be in touch.

Okay, thanks.

Steak. A good cut.

My lasagna didn't kill you, neither will
Beth.

Thank you.

Has he been asking a lot of questions
like that?

Mind if I come in?

I'm

not really

hungry. You look like the walking dead.

Eat it.

I guess I haven't done the best job at
taking care of myself.

Well, that ends starting today.

And also, I don't want you talking to
anyone without a lawyer.

If he calls you, come get me. Susan, you
do traffic law. I'm a criminal defense

attorney, and yes, that includes
contesting violations and citations.

mary let me help you i know that they
seem like harmless questions

you're a suspect but i found charlie i'm
the one who called the

police most murders are committed by a
spouse or a significant other the police

know this you've been in their crosshair
since day one what am i supposed to do

whatever it is you normally do

Well, there was this woman at the
funeral I've never seen before.

Maybe I could find out. No, Mary,
whatever you normally do, the only way

with death is by living life.

Mary! Oh, hi.

Poor thing.

How are you?

Hi, Lizzie. I'm just taking it day by
day.

Well, I just want you to know that we
were all behind you.

Thank you.

And don't you pay any mind to what
people are saying about you, okay?

Mary.

Didn't expect to see you back so soon.

Do you have a minute?

Sure, of course.

I was hoping to talk to you about
scheduling my return to work.

Well, when were you thinking?

I was thinking tomorrow.

Look, there's no need to rush back.
You've been through a terrible ordeal.

We all understand.

If you need more time to grieve, I want
you to take it.

What I need is to get back to work.

I can't be in that house alone anymore.

It's too hard.

Okay.

We'll make it happen.

Thank you.

Uh, if it gets too much, you'll let me
know, okay?

I missed you Who do you want? You Who?

Only you

Good afternoon.

Screws and bolts hardware.

How may I help you today?

Yes.

Is this Cassandra James?

No, ma 'am. She's not in today, but if
you're looking for tools... Do you know

when she's going to be back?

Not for a while, I'm afraid.

Oh, really?

Why? She had a bunch of vacation time
saved up.

Cacked it in all last week.

I guess sometimes you just have to get
away from it all.

Yeah, I guess so.

You know people at the DMV, right?

So you can get information on people,
like addresses?

I might know a guy.

Why do you want this girl's address?

I think Charlie was having an affair.

Really?

I'm not sure.

I don't have proof.

But there were signs.

What do you mean?

He was distant.

And I know he was busy at work, but it
felt like he was keeping something from

me. Do you have anything concrete?

Did you see anything the night before he
died?

He came home with scratches on his back,
and they looked like they were, you

know... Did you tell the police this?

No.

I mean, it looks bad, right?

I think my husband is having an affair,
and then he winds up dead.

Well, it doesn't look good.

You think that this girl and Charlie
were having an affair?

This is Cassandra James.

I first saw her at the funeral.

No one knew who she was, and when she
saw me, she ran away before I could talk

to her.

So I did a little research, and I found
out that she worked at the hardware

store that Charlie went to.

I mean, this girl is half our age.

If she was Charlie's mistress, do you
really want to know now?

If this girl was being Charlie, it'd be
tough.

She could be our best lead in finding
out who killed him.

Do you really think that she would tell
you if something's going on?

Trust me, Susan.

I'll be able to tell.

And you said that the police think I'm a
suspect.

Maybe it's time we give them another
one.

Well, you better not start going through
old yearbooks next. I'm only doing this

once.

Daryl. Hi.

Yeah, it's Susan.

Can you run a plate for me?

Okay, thanks, Daryl.

I really should be going with you.

I'll be okay.

Be careful.

And if you find out anything, anything
at all, promise that you'll tell me.

I will.

Hi. Excuse me, do you know, um...

Oh.

Can I help you? Hi.

Cassandra, um... You don't know me. I'm
Charlie Thunder's wife.

I saw you at Charlie's funeral.

How did you know my husband?

I work at Screws and Bolts.

Charlie came in a lot while he was
working at the house on the beach.

He told you about the beach house?

Sure.

Did he take you there? I wouldn't be any
use on site. I just work at the

counter. I'm asking if he took you there
socially.

How close were you to my husband?

I told you he was a customer I knew and
had liked.

Sounds like he was more than that.

He died and all of a sudden you have to
go on extended leave from work?

That doesn't sound like just a customer.

Cass, where's my wallet?

Just a second.

Look, the only thing going on between
your husband and me was a display case

drill bits, okay?

I'm sorry. I didn't realize you had a
boyfriend.

I have a husband and a honeymoon to get
packed for, so... I guess I misread the

situation.

You're wrong about Charlie.

He never hit on me.

Not like the other customers.

Jesus, Cass!

You had yourself a winner.

Sorry.

Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.

How did you get in here?

Make this for you?

Trevor.

There's an owl.

That's what he used to call you, right?

Why is that?

Did you used to keep him up all night?

What do you want?

I left messages.

I've been busy.

Why are you so mad at me?

Because I asked you to give me space.

And here you are in my house.

You're in pain. I get it. But pushing
people away is not the answer.

I want to be here for you.

You can't be. I have to be.

Mary, we're friends.

I care for you. I haven't shown it. No.

You've shown it.

And now my memory of his final days.

Will always be. You're just as guilty as
I am.

You kicked me back, Mary.

You should go.

Why?

Because you're not Charlie.

And you never will be.

Exactly.

Get out of my house, Trevor.

You need time.

I understand.

I do.

Just... Mary... He's gone.

But he was gone a long time before that.

I was there for you.

I still am.

Just don't lose what you've still got.

Any other signs of foul play?

I don't think so. I don't know. Not that
I can really see.

You leave that window open?

I don't know. I don't remember.

You better have a warrant. You have
absolutely no right to be inside of this

house tonight.

What's going on?

Somebody was in my house.

I'm okay. I'm just a little freaked out.

If you like, I can arrange for a hotel
if you don't feel comfortable here. No,

you're staying with us.

I couldn't. No, he's right. You
shouldn't be here alone.

When Trevor's tied up writing, it'll
just be the two of us.

This is great.

Are you sure this is all right?

And that Trevor won't mind?

Well, he's not here, so he's not allowed
to mind.

Where is he, by the way?

Who knows where he goes?

Coffee shops, bars.

Hard to say.

He's been spending a lot of late nights
just writing away.

I'd give him a hard time, but that'd be
hypocritical.

You okay?

Yeah.

It's been a long day. Well, relax.

You're with friends now.

Have some wine, take a hot shower, and
get some sleep.

I've gotten into you.

Wait, stop.

Good morning.

I heard we had a house guest.

Yeah, I had some trouble last night.

Well, like I said, you can count on me.

Anna, you feeling better?

Yes.

Thanks again for everything.

Well, the bed is yours for as long as
you want it. Right, Trevor?

Of course.

I appreciate that.

I'm going to get going.

I'm going to be late for work.

returning oh this is a good one did you
enjoy it very much okay you're all set

thank you did you kill your husband

you're all set

Crystal, you've got a lot of nerves
showing your face here. What are you

people?

I haven't been telling people anything.

They see you hiding behind your lawyer
friend.

It's thick.

The wife of the guy who what?

Crystal, you know me. You have known me
for years.

Do you really think I'm capable of
murder?

I thought I knew you.

Listen, can we just go talk about this
somewhere?

You can ask me any questions you have.

You know, I loved him, too.

Will your lawyer friend be there? Just
you and me.

All right.

Did you find something?

No.

I just have a few questions for Mrs.

For Ms. Saunders.

Well, I will leave you to it then. No,
no.

This won't take long.

Right?

Well, that depends on you.

Care to step inside?

You sure you don't want your lawyer
here?

No, I'm fine.

But like she said, why are you here and
not out searching for a suspect or the

murder weapon?

Funny you mention that.

Found that at the scene.

It was in a shed out back.

Look familiar?

At Screws and Bolts, they sell all kinds
of hunting.

I found traces of dry blood on the
blade.

Lab results came back as a match for
Charlie's DNA.

Oh.

Okay.

So maybe you touched it for
fingerprints.

Oh, we did.

And we found yours.

That's impossible.

You have to believe me, I...

I think I need my lawyer.

Can I have a glass of water?

They didn't give you one at the station?

Actually, do you have any wine?

If I'm going to help you, I need you to
listen to me.

I told you not to talk to them without
representation.

I didn't know about the knife.

I'm just telling the truth.

Well, right now, the truth could be the
worst thing that you could tell them.

What do you mean?

I need you to be honest with me.

I have been.

Look.

Your marriage was on the rocks. Maybe
you thought that he was cheating on you.

Sometimes people do things in the heat
of the moment, and if they blindside us

with information like that and I don't
know it, I can't protect you.

So if there's something that you're not
telling me, I need to know now.

I didn't kill Charlie.

I didn't!

But you thought that he was cheating on
you? No.

Let's talk about knives.

What about traffic cams?

What about them?

Are there any near the beach house?

Like maybe near the crossroads?

Huh.

Why didn't I think of that?

I'll look into it. How many times did
you go to the beach house?

A few.

Did you ever bring Charlie dinner there?
Like maybe a steak and you left a knife

there afterwards?

Maybe you did. No one will buy that.

They'll buy whatever I sell them.

I'm persuasive.

What if the person who broke into my
house stole the steak knife and

it at the crime scene?

If that's the case, then where's the
real weapon?

And what motive would somebody possibly
have for doing that?

Oh, you're home early.

Got a lot done, but anxious to get home.

Hope I'm not interrupting anything.

No. Grab a plate and join us. That looks
great.

Any news on Charlie?

No.

It's just crazy. I can't imagine how
anybody would think that you'd get it.

What is wrong with the world?

I think I'm going to bed.

Really? Yeah.

I'll see you in the morning.

What's that about?

I have no idea.

Those are cute.

You care to be.

I don't mean to.

I just came to see if you wanted
anything. If there's anything I could do

you.

No.

Good.

You seem a little tense, that's all.

And what kind of host would I be if I
didn't make sure all your needs were

Well, you changed your mind.

Red?

You wanted to see me?

Yes. Can I talk to you for a moment?

Sure.

Everything okay?

Look, I know you want to get back to
your familiar schedule, but I'm just not

sure it's the right thing after all.

I don't understand. Where is this coming
from?

Well, there have been some complaints.

from parents concerning the influence
your situation may have on the students.

My situation?

The, uh, events surrounding your
husband's death.

It's Crystal.

She's just upset about the whole thing.

We all are, but she's just confused.

I also know the police have questioned
you and, uh, well, I'm afraid I'm going

to have to...

Place you on indefinite leave.

Please, no.

Look, I'm sorry, Mary, but my hands are
tied.

I have lost everything. I cannot lose
this too.

Look, there's a school board meeting
tonight.

If you like, why don't you stop by? I'll
give you some time to complete your

case.

Thank you.

Now, if you don't mind, I'll walk you to
the parking lot.

All I'm saying is, we've got to crack
down on security here.

I'm so glad you're here.

I want you to know I signed that
petition, but only under duress.

Petition?

Yeah.

The one to get you fired.

I'll take that under consideration.

All right, then. At this time, I'd like
to offer the floor to Mary Saunders.

First of all, I would like to thank all
of you for giving me the chance to

address you directly.

I know there have been a lot of
questions.

This morning I learned that I was
suspended from my position as school

librarian, that some of you may have
some reservations about me

or may have heard some things that you
found disturbing.

I would like to clear all of that up.

You guys know me.

Doug, I have known you since, what,
third grade?

Darlene, we have worked together for 11
years.

I am still that same person.

I can promise you that.

With me, what you see is what you get.

You...

After everything that I've done for you,
this is how you repay me?

By sleeping with my husband?

I didn't. I swear.

He came home and he started packing his
bags.

He said that the two of you are in love
and that this is a new beginning.

That's not true. That's not true. I
swear that's not true. Nothing is ever

with you, Mary.

I'm sorry, Charlie.

I hope you know that.

Thanks for coming.

Well, I gotta admit, I was a little
surprised when you called.

Trevor Gates, your lawyer's husband.

Yes. And why are you just sharing it
now?

I was embarrassed.

And honestly, I didn't think that Trevor
was capable of doing something like

this. But now you do.

He's been acting really weird.

And you know when my house was broken
into and that owl was broken?

He commented on that owl earlier that
same day.

Again, Mary.

I've got to ask, why you didn't come
forward with this information sooner?

I was advised not to. By Susan Gates?

Have you ever stopped to consider that
maybe the wife of the man that you're

sleeping with might not have your best
interest in mind?

I told you I didn't sleep with him. So
what?

It sounds like she thinks you did. Why
would you...

You heard about the school board
meeting.

But then you already knew about Trevor.

Word gets around.

And I find it interesting that you
waited till the day after the news broke

mention any of this to me.

But you'll still talk to him?

Every possibility.

I'll talk to him.

a criminal charge, including any traffic
violations, please direct your calls to

my office.

Otherwise, go ahead and leave a message
after the tone.

Hey.

It's Mary.

I know you said you never want to see me
again, and honestly, I can't blame you.

I really screwed up, and I'm so sorry.

I'm trying really hard to make it right.

But I'm just so scared.

I could really use my friend right now.

Please call me.

Hey.

I'm really sorry I didn't come sooner.

Things have been really bad.

God, I miss you so much.

I don't know what to do.

I lost you.

Lost everyone.

There's nobody left.

That's not true.

I'm sorry.

I'll go.

You don't have to.

I didn't think you'd want to see me.

Why not?

Because... Because of what happened.

Crystal told you, right?

Sorry. This may sound unmotherly, but
your relationship with my son is between

you and him.

I still view you as family.

I hope for you to find out about this
now.

And Crystal... Crystal already knew.

But... But it only happened once.

And nothing really happened.

I mean, yeah, we kissed, but that was
it.

It was just a mistake.

It's okay.

Susan was taking Trevor's car, so he was
cooped up at the house, and he couldn't

ride there, so he would come over and...

Charlie was always gone, so we became
close.

We're just his friends.

And then Charlie missed our anniversary,
and it was just a mistake.

I remember the first time he met you.

I'd never seen him so happy.

He said he'd found the girl he was going
to marry.

Well, he had just broken his front teeth
and he was high on painkillers.

Maybe.

But they were off.

And his love for you never did.

And I can tell that your love never wore
off either.

I really loved him.

I know.

Do you think Crystal believes that?

Maybe you should tell her.

I've tried.

Maybe you should try again.

Susan.

I got your message.

Thank you so much for calling me back.

I want you to know I didn't mean for any
of this to happen.

What I did was awful.

But I want our friendship to stay alive,
no matter what.

The cops came by earlier looking for
Trevor.

I know.

They found out about everything.

That's actually one of the things I
wanted to clear up with you.

But Mary, it wasn't him.

I know. I just thought... You were
right.

There was a traffic camera near the
beach house. Did he get anything?

I'm sending you the picture right now. I
want to go to the beach house right

away and see what else the cops might
have missed. Of course.

I'll meet you there.

I visited Charlie today.

You should visit him sometime.

Mary was there.

Not alone, I bet.

She was.

And she told me all about her fling.

No point keeping it a secret anymore, is
there?

Sounds like nothing really happened.

He just came by a lot.

Charlie's lying in the ground.

Mary is lying while standing right on
top of him.

You don't know that, Crystal.

I saw them, Mom.

Mary said it.

He just came by her house, and only to
write.

Mary says a lot, but I saw them.

And they weren't writing, and they
weren't at home. They were at the beach

house.

The beach house?

Yes. Why didn't you say anything?

Because you always said that their
relationship was their business.

So instead of talking to Charlie about
it, I talked to Mary.

I encouraged her to talk to him. I
thought they could work through it.

You don't think I give her the benefit
of the doubt?

Well, I did.

And look what happened.

Crystal, you can't blame yourself.

Yes, I can.

I know you'd come by eventually.

I was waiting for you.

What are you doing here?

Don't you know?

I did.

I left my wife.

I told her everything.

I never asked you to do that, Trevor.
Because you're a good person.

And just like me, you're just a victim
of bad timing. You just married the

wrong person.

I gave...

Susan, my soul.

It wasn't enough for her.

She's cold.

Mary, she is.

And frankly, so is Charlie.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have
said that.

That's just the thing, though, about me
is that I don't hold back.

I'm not like Susan.

I go after what I want.

And I don't want to be with you.

I don't want to be with you.

That's not what you said that night.

When you brought me into your bedroom.
That night was a mistake.

We were drinking. You invited me over.

You offered me wine.

You told me, leave your writing at home.

I mean, you were warm and you were kind.
I just needed someone.

And you don't have? We were friends.

What happened between us wasn't friends.

What happened between us was passion.

Nothing happened.

Nothing will happen.

Ever.

Yes, it will.

No. This is not one of your stories.

Trevor, you don't get to write the
ending.

I gave up my home.

My wife.

I did everything for you. And this is
how you treat me? You let me on.

Made me fall in love with you.

You're no better than Susan.

Just... They're just playing games with
people's emotions.

No, of course not. You don't get to do
that.

You don't get to take me into your
bedroom and then cast me aside like...

God. Are you okay? Are you okay? Can you
hear me? Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm fine. Let me go.

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

I just... I just... I can't control
myself when I'm around you. I... If you

just... Just give me a chance, I could
make you so... I could just please give

me a chance, please. Where were you?
With you, always with you. No.

The night that Charlie was killed.

Where were you?

You think that I killed Charlie?

That is rich.

No, no, no, no, no.

No, I didn't.

I didn't kill your precious Charlie. I
didn't have to.

I already had you. You know that.

It is just like you to stab him in the
back.

Let me go.

It's all you've ever done has hurt me.

Just beginning to see you for the lying,
manipulative one that you are.

I can't believe I ever thought that you
were worthy of my love.

Susan, it's right about you.

Oh, that was out of character.

He just snapped.

Yes, he did.

Are you okay?

I'm okay.

I just need to get some water or
something.

If you're looking for this, then you're
even dumber than I thought.

Did he hurt you?

He grabbed me.

I thought he was going to kill me.

Oh, my God.

Maybe he did kill Charlie.

But what about Crystal?

I guess I was wrong.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I thought I knew what was best, but I
was wrong.

Like always.

And I thought you knew what was best.

You never told on me.

Never told on me for anything.

Thank you for coming.

I was hoping we could talk about my
state. Are you going to tell the truth

time or what?

See, last time we spoke, you said you
didn't know anything.

But ever since then, all I keep hearing
are stories that you found Mary or you

saw her in the act.

I didn't...

actually see them at the beach house,
but... But I heard somebody inside,

and they were... They were having... You
know.

I thought it was them.

What did you see?

I saw a car.

I don't understand.

It had to be him.

The traffic camera. Well, maybe she saw
something.

You should call her and see if she can
meet us.

Okay. I'm married.

Hopefully this will all be over soon.

The call keeps dropping.

Do you want to call the police while I
do this?

Sure. Okay.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Are

you

okay?

Did you get through to Crystal?

I really wish he hadn't found that.

It was you?

Did you get through to Crystal?

I sent her a text message. She's on her
way.

You're a terrible liar, Mary. I really
wish you had, though. It would save me

some trouble later.

Why?

Why, Crystal?

Because she saw too much.

You know, it's funny. I thought that it
was you outside the house that night.

And I was so impressed with how well you
kept it together at dinner. But, no, I

was wrong again.

Wrong nosy female relative.

Thanks for the traffic cam tip, though.

Real sloppy of me.

You and Charlie? Don't insult me by
acting surprised. You knew that he was

much for you to handle.

Bookworm.

You killed him.

After the first time?

He wanted out.

But you know Charlie. He was never very
good with words.

His actions said otherwise.

Until I showed up at your little dinner.

Now that was the last straw.

He was really going to leave.

You're a murderer.

No.

No, you are.

And I made sure of that, though you
certainly helped.

See, after Trevor convinced you to put a
kitchen knife in your husband's back,

you got cold feet.

But he was blackmailing you.

So you decided to take care of that
here.

But before Trevor died, he was able to
inflict one mortal wound.

You took the knife.

Yes, I did.

And thanks for making it so difficult.

If you just left me alone for five
minutes in your kitchen, I wouldn't have

to break your precious little owl.

I trusted you.

Now, these are pretty ironic words
coming from a woman who slept with my

husband. I never slept with him. Oh,
wait.

Really? Never.

Well, you weren't missing much.

husband.

Everybody makes mistakes.

Wait, think about this.

You'll never get away with it. Have you
not been paying attention?

I thought this through. I figured it all
out. It's a storybook ending. I would

think that if anyone would appreciate
that, you would, bookworm. Oh, and by

way, that was his real nickname for you,
not Little Owl. Please, it doesn't have

to be like this.

I won't tell anybody.

Well, that sounds like the ending of one
of Trevor's books, and there's a reason

that they don't sell.

Too many loose ends.

It's a shame that Crystal couldn't join
us.

But still, I'll make sure it's nice and
tidy.

Crystal wants to know if you can chat.

Should I tell her that you're
unavailable, or maybe that...

Police only have one suspect, Mary.

They'll make the evidence fit the crime.

Can't crawl away from me, Bricorne.

I liked you once.

And a part of me wishes I could just
shoot you in the face.

But no.

A suicide won't do.

It needs to look like you had time to
bleed out after you killed Trevor.

And then Crystal found you.

And maybe I'll save the suicide for her.

I really am sorry.

I hear that gut shots are terribly
painful.

Please, thank you for begging.

I really appreciate them.

Perfect timing.

Maybe it doesn't have to be a suicide
after all.

My lover's killed by the same blade.

Now that's a storybook ending.

Police! Drop your weapon!

Do it!

Don't marry me.

No.

No.

I don't think I will.

Anything you say, Cannon, will be

held against you in the court of law.

You have the right to an attorney. I am
an attorney.

Whatever, lady.

Yes, sir.

Yeah, forensics has it now.

Seems she stashed the knife in a paint
can and then fled.

Yeah, that was my mistake.

I'm going to have to call you back.

Thank you, guys.

You saved my life.

How did you know where I was?

You weren't at home.

Just exploring every possibility, right?

Funny you mention that.

I think I found your murder weapon.

And our murderer, from the looks of it.

You may have a few more court dates
coming up soon.

If so, I suggest finding better
representation.

Is that your version of an apology?

No.

Sorry you had to go through this, Mary.

And I'm sorry we didn't trust you.

It's okay.

Everybody makes mistakes.

If you need a place to stay, we can
arrange that.

Maybe an actual hotel this time.

It's okay.

Lady?

Are you sure it's okay if I stay with
you?

Yeah.

You can take Charlie's old room.

I figure it's yours now anyway.

Anytime you need it.

Thanks.

You know he really loved you, right?

And so do I.

I'm so sorry, Mary.

Okay.

Everybody. Oh, my God. Enough of that.

Let's just go home.
