Please, help me!

My husband's having a heart attack.

Please send someone.

Ask him to lay down.

Richard, darling, please stand still.

We're going to do CPR. Are you right next to him?

He's walking away from me.

Oh, my God! He just fell.

Sorry, ma'am, I can't understand you.

I need you to take a deep breath.

Please send somebody!

Oh, what do I do? What do I do?

Oh, my God!

Help me, please!

Verity, do you remember... Louise.

She used to be Dad's secretary.

Oh! Yeah. Hi.

Verity, it's been too long.

I guess.

This is my son, Eric.

Hello.

Hi.

So, Louise and Dad got married about a week ago.

What?

Must be hard for you to understand,

but we were so in love.

We were so happy.

She was with him when it happened.

Now he's gone.

It was his heart.

I didn't know that he was having any heart problems, did you?

Not having you in his life just hurt him.

I can't. This has been a long day.

- Are you okay, Mom? - It's just I need to lay down.

Okay.

Hopefully Cara has done

whatever she's doing in the bedroom.

It was lovely meeting you, Verity.

Thanks for everything, Jonathan. Really, truly.

- Yeah. - One step at a time, Mom.

Slower, slower.

Okay.

Oh, God!

Did you know about any of this?

Nope.

They still keep the vodka in the library?

- Yep. - Oh, thank God!

Okay. So, what do you want?

Just give me a water. It's two in the afternoon.

Mmm.

Well, what do you think of our new stepmom?

- Are we calling her that? - That's what she is.

Eww! Okay.

So, she likes sleeping up in Mom and Dad's room.

Eric's in the blue room.

I don't trust her.

- Who gets married in secret? - I'm sorry.

I kind of thought you just got engaged in secret.

It's not a secret!

ask me how I'm doing, care about...

You can call me!

Seriously, what do you want to drink?

You haven't changed at all.

Neither have you.

our father became the executor of her will.

Who becomes the executor now?

I do. Well, obviously,

you'll both continue to receive the allowance

that you've been getting up till now.

You will each come into your half share of the trust

as stipulated by your mother.

And how much was that?

About 10 million dollars.

in giving everything that he had to Louise.

He knew you both were very well taken care of.

And I want you both to know

I don't know. They're rowdy.

Oh, God! Help! Help!

Wait a minute. Is that...

Is that Jonathan?

What? Oh, my God!

- Jonathan! - Jonathan!

Jonathan!

Jonathan!

Jonathan!

Call... Call 9-1-1!

Jonathan!

And you can't swim?

No. No. I... I never learned how.

I mean, this is my first time even on a boat.

Oh, all right.

I'm going to get your name and phone number.

If you think of anything else, please notify us.

Verity. Oh, I'm so sorry, honey.

Oh, I loved Jonathan so much

regardless of the way he treated me.

He's such a special young man.

Please just go away.

- Come here, baby. - Oh, God!

If there's anything that I can do.

He's dead.

Do you want some chardonnay?

No, I'm sorry, Jeanette.

I am with a very difficult client.

I'll try to finish up and be home soon.

Promise.

No, no, no don't.

No need to wait up.

So, I'm a demanding client now?

Of course not. I had to tell her something.

What a terrible, terrible thing.

Well, you have to admit,

with Jonathan out of the picture,

things are running more smoothly now.

There's still Verity.

Oh, she's the least of our concerns.

She's a drunk.

She'll be penniless and we'll be gone

before she's sober enough to realize it.

But, Gary Sims...

What about him?

He's disgusting.

He's been following me around like a mad dog.

You mean, this guy is out here right now?

But I had an idea, Eugene.

You did?

Yeah.

Private investigator scum like him,

they tend to have a lot of enemies.

Hey.

Hey.

Funeral is Saturday.

How are things with you?

I don't even care anymore.

You know, like, I know that it is not Eric's fault but...

It's not your fault either.

Obviously.

It's been hitting me.

He's just...

Gone.

He's not coming back.

Yeah.

I feel like I kinda gotta watch my step

'cause it's like death runs in this family.

Did John tell you about the guy, what he found out?

What guy? What?

The investigator guy called him,

and he got all upset and wanted to talk to you.

So let's call him.

You guys want to go out,

get a bite to eat or something?

Maybe a drink?

You know what, I... I'm okay.

I'm okay tonight.

Raincheck?

Sure.

Okay.

In politics today,

the election is probably going to be a close race.

Now, I don't mean to sound cynical,

but I wonder if all these promises...

And in business,

the stock market fell through the floor today.

No one seems to know where it's heading.

Chances are we're in for another ride tomorrow,

and in entertainment today...

What? No!

Six kids, all under the tender age of 10.

They all play instruments and sing.

They don't even know the capital of their country...

Hi, Mr. Sims. This is Verity Hawkins

calling you for, like, the seventh time.

I'm sorry, can you just...

Give me a call back when you get this message?

Please? Thank you.

- Is that... - Yeah, that is.

Um...

Verity, April, what are you poor dears doin' here?

Mrs. traybol, hi.

It was just so terrible about Jonathan.

Your family has just suffered so much.

If you need anything, you just tell me.

Are you here to see Gary Sims, too?

Yes, as a matter of fact, I am.

Well, he's not here.

Well, that's just great.

He promised me pictures,

and he hasn't been returning my calls.

I'm divorcing Eugene.

- Oh, I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.

I'm not.

He's cheating on me.

Oh!

With your father's widow, no less!

With Louise?

Before they were married,

I suspected that they were carryin' on an affair.

I would show you the pictures

if I could get this man on the phone.

Some people have no professional ethic, I swear.

So, Jonathan actually had a reason to be suspicious.

Best I could do on short notice.

They should be good, though, unless you do something stupid.

Thanks.

How you plannin' on gettin' through the border?

Well, the border,

it's, uh, it's not really part of the plan.

Really?

I just gave you two passports.

I think we're, uh, just gonna hit the road.

Really? So, hop in a car and drive.

- Yeah. - Well, now you got me worried.

You see, what if there's roadblocks,

checkpoints lookin' for you?

- Any chance of that? - Well, maybe.

Well, maybe if they catch you, they come lookin' for me.

Yeah. Yeah, I know.

Well, uh... ahem...

how would, uh, how would you do it?

I figure I would take a sweet little cruise down the river.

And I would probably take that ferry over there,

take the ferry over to the cruise ship,

get me a nice little cabin on the cruise ship,

play shuffleboard and bingo as I float to freedom.

That's how I'd do it.

I, uh, I'll keep that in mind.

Thinner than that.

You have to cut it thinner, let me show you.

Like this. Like that and that.

See? This thin? Okay?

Oh, hi. I hope you have a big appetite.

Actually, I've lost my appetite.

Louise, you are no longer welcome in this house.

Let me finish that for you, Miss Louise.

What did you just say?

You're sleeping with Eugene.

My father's been dead barely a week.

My personal life is my business

and you have no right to dictate how I live it.

No, I don't have a right dictating how you live it,

but I do have a right dictating where you live it,

and you will not be living it here.

So, you can kindly pack your bags

and be out of here by morning.

Okay.

I'm sorry, I can't, I can't, I can't.

I can't take this. I can't. I'm sorry.

I'm putting this house up for sale.

I'm putting everything on the auction block.

I'm selling it piece by piece.

I... I... let's just be done with this, please.

Verity?

You okay?

You know, I hate it when people ask me that question.

Look at me. Are you okay?

I'm great!

I am absolutely great!

You know, I just kicked your mother out.

I wasn't aware of that.

Yeah.

Look, I get it, okay? She's crazy.

You want me gone?

Okay, just say the word and I'm out like that.

You know what? It actually doesn't matter because I am leaving tomorrow

because there is nothing left for me here.

Well, I get it.

Well... okay.

I guess the whole thing's kaput, huh?

I was just...

I was just hoping that we could spend

a little bit more time together, you know?

It's just that I... I've had a really long week,

and I just would really, really like to be alone right now, okay?

- Alone? - Okay, okay?

Take care of yourself, Verity.

The things I do for love.

Are you really selling the house?

Auctioning it.

But it was important to Jonathan.

He wanted to keep it in the family.

Well, it's not important to me.

So, you just ignore his final wishes?

And stay here? There's nothing for me here.

What about your family?

My family is gone.

It not like there was much of a family to begin with.

You know what,

I didn't come here for some kind of a reunion.

I came here for the exact same thing

that everybody else did... money. That's it.

Poor little rich girl.

Has anyone ever told you that you're selfish?

Yes, yes. Often.

And to my face.

And you're okay with that?

Yes. I am.

Before he died,

Jonathan said he really regretted losing touch with you.

But I guess that wasn't such a bad thing after all.

I'm going through his things, see if there was anything

that he wouldn't want to go to auction.

Okay.

Yeah.

I am selfish and I'm sorry.

And I always thought that he would be here

when I figured it out.

He's not...

He was supposed to still be here.

Me, I'm the 15th place.

Jonathan's phone would have the P.I.'s message on it, right?

Yes.

Well, do you know his password?

Uh...

Yeah.

Uh, hi, Jonathan. This is Gary.

I got the toxicology report from the lab.

This medication Cara pulled,

in large doses it can mimic the symptoms of heart attack.

I spoke to the doctor whose name is on that bottle.

He did not write that prescription.

So, I tracked down the security cam tapes from the pharmacy

where it was filled, and it's her.

I believe Louise forged the scrip

and then filled it herself. So, lots to discuss.

There's definitely enough here to open a legit investigation,

which I will put in motion in the morning.

Give me a call as soon as you can.

You got it?

Ha.
