All language subtitles for God Friended Me s02e11_English

- Previously on
"God Friended Me"...

- Miles Finer?
- That's right.

- I got a friend request

from someone calling themselves

God on Facebook,

and they sent me your name.

- I have been doing this
for a very long time--

- Yes, and now it's my turn.

I'm not sure I'm going

to be helping Friend
Suggestions anymore.

I've decided to go back
to Chicago.

- I am ready to be your wife
as soon as possible.

- The God Account brought
you two together to test you,

to make sure you would
sacrifice love

to prove your worth.

- We can't let the God Account

come between us.

- It didn't.

Miles, you did.

You chose the God Account
over me.

That's why I need to walk away
from the God Account

and from you.

I love you,
but it's over.

- If I can figure out who's
behind the God Account

then maybe I can convince them

to find someone else
to take over,

and when they do,

Cara and I can be together.

- Miles?

I just got back into town.

The Friend Suggestions,
they're not picked at random.

I found a connect connection
between all of them.

[dramatic music]

[door opening]
- Okay.

You said you have a lead on
who's behind the God Account.

I'm all ears.
- Do you wanna call Cara first?

She's gonna wanna hear this.

- Uh, actually,
if it's about the God Account,

I think she'll pass.

- What are you talking about?

- Well, Cara and I broke up.

- I'm sorry, Miles.

What happened?

- It's a very long story,

but if I can track down
who's behind the God Account

and tell them to find
a replacement,

we can be together.

- Wait, you wanna give it away?

- Yes.
- Are you serious?

- Yeah.

Are you interested

in reclaiming the job?

- Absolutely not.

- You didn't even think
about it, Joy.

- I didn't need to.

I stopped getting
Friend Suggestions

when I decided to go back
to Chicago

because the God Account knew
that being a public defender

is what I'm supposed
to be doing with my life.

However, I can help you
find out who's behind it all.

- I'm listening.

- I came to town to
interview a witness

for a fraud case involving
a company

called New York Sun Insurance.

During discovery
they turned over a list

of thousands of clients,

and when I was scanning it,

I recognized a few names.

- Like who?

- Every single one
of your Friend Suggestions

from John Dove and Cara
to Miguel Solano

are clients of New York Sun.

- That's how the God Account

is choosing
your Friend Suggestions.

It's actually genius.

- What do you mean?

- Well, insurance companies,

they know everything about you,

from health records to hobbies.

- He's right.

Whoever's accessing

New York Sun's database,

there's a good chance

they could be behind
the God Account.

- This is the lead
I've been looking for.

We find them;
I get my answers;

I walk away.

♪

- The wedding's on?
When did this happen?

- Last night when I surprised
Trish at the Blue Danube.

- Congratulations!

- Okay, so now we need
to set a new date.

- Actually, we already have.

What are you two doing
this weekend?

[laughs]
- This weekend?

- Yeah.

We'll be walking down
the aisle

at Harlem Episcopal,

reception's gonna be

at Trish's farm house,

and I gotta go 'cause I got

a ton of things to do,

including coming up with

a very reduced guest list.

Oh, and--and please tell
Rakesh and Cara

that they are
of course welcome.

- Yeah, I'll--I'll
let them know.

- Thanks.
- Mm-hmm.

- I'll see you.

[distant pop music playing]

[door closing]

- Why didn't you tell him
about Cara?

- Because I don't want
to bother him

with my breakup drama.

- Have you heard from her?

- No, I haven't.

- How are you doing?

- I can't imagine her not being
in my life, Ali.

[dramatic music]

But thankfully I have a way
to fix things.

- What do you mean?

- I might have a way
to track down

who's behind the God Account,

and if I can find them
then I'm gonna tell them

to give it to someone else.

- But it means so much to you.

I mean, even you can't deny
that you are a different person

ever since the God Account
came into your life.

I mean, it's changed you,
Miles, for the better.

- Yes, it's changed me,
but so did Cara.

- Then you need
to tell her that.

Make sure she's on board

so you're not doing this
for nothing.

- So how are you doing
now that Paul's gone?

- I know we're lucky he only
got a year sentence,

but a year feels so far away.

- Look, I'm here for you,
whatever you need.

- Thank you, sweetheart.

On a brighter note,

got an interview
for an open nurse's position

at the hospital
where I used to work.

- Wait, I didn't realize
you were thinking

about going back to work.

- I have been but now that
Paul's assets are frozen,

I gotta do something.

- If only the God Account
had sent us his name earlier,

you wouldn't be
in this position.

- Paul made his choice,
God Account or no.

[dramatic music]

Have you talked to Miles?

- No, not since
the other night.

- Are you sure you two
can't work this out?

- I don't see how.

I can't be a part
of the God Account

after what it did
to our family,

and I can't ask Miles
to walk away.

It's not like there's
a third option.

- Cara, I know you.

You've always been a fighter,

so why aren't you fighting
for Miles?

- Because this is a fight
that I know I can't win.

♪

- So New York Sun suffered
a major security breach,

but I couldn't really find
anything about it online,

but I did find this.

♪

- What are we looking at,
exactly?

- Oh, I'm sorry.

Um, that is a backdoor

that whoever created
the breach left behind

so they could secretly
access client files

at New York Sun at any time.

- So whoever set it up could be
behind the God Account?

- Precisely, and it shouldn't
really take me that long

to trace it back
to whoever created it.

It was my father's watch.

There's a picture of my family.

Those are my parents,

Listen, Miles.

If this Cara is the woman that
you're supposed to be with,

Mm?

You just have
to have some faith.

- After everything that
you have been through,

how can you still have
so much faith?

- I get that question a lot,

but, well, I mean,
the truth is,

uh, my faith was shaken
after the war.

In fact, uh,
I did lose it for a bit,

but it's like, uh, Bob Dylan.

- Uh, excuse me?
- Bob Dylan.

First he's Jewish,
then he's not,

have sent us your name

if we couldn't help you.

- Help?
How?

Without that watch,

we can't track down

what happened to Rose.

The only thing he would say

was the buyer came
from out-of-state.

Most likely a collector.

gonna give up.

All I'm asking is that
you don't give up, either.

We've seen some
pretty amazing things

happen to people

[dramatic music]

When I escaped that train
from Auschwitz,

I remember
I was walking for days

when this family that
was in hiding

found me and took me in,

and they told me
if I had faith,

that my sister was still alive

and that I would see her again,

as they had faith
that they would survive

and make it to America,

They did,
and they took me with them.

For 75 years, I've never
forgotten that lesson.

Why should I forget it now?

- Even if the watch
has been sold,

the most important thing
is the chain of custody.

Maybe we can see if Berkley's
will show it to us.

- We need to find a way
to compel them to turn it over.

- Well, why shouldn't we
just tell them the truth?

That it was my father's watch,

no matter who owned it
after the Holocaust.

- The Holocaust.

[tense music]

- There are residents
at Mount Gardens

who drift off just like that.

- The Holocaust Expropriated
Recovery Act.

It allows people
to claim ownership

over items that were lost
or stolen during the Holocaust.

- Good.
So how do we do that?

- I need you to swear
in an affidavit

stating the watch
belonged to your father.

- Yeah, I can do that.

- Without any corroboration,

it probably won't be enough
to gain ownership,

is to look at
the chain of custody,

it might work.

It means you two
can be together.

- In theory, yes,

but we've never really
gotten close

to finding out
who's behind this,

and even if we did,

I mean, there's no reason
that they would just

let him walk away.

- Isn't it worth
trying to find out?

- If I go down this road again

and it doesn't work out,

my heart would be broken twice,

I could take that.

is all about.

Oh, honey, I understand.

Believe me, I do.

I spent a big part
of my life avoiding pain,

if you do that,

the best parts of life
will pass you by.

Reaching out to me,

you risked heartbreak
all over again.

I'm here regarding

our meeting was at 4:00.

I thought the same thing.

You wouldn't happen to have

You're more than welcome

you could introduce me

His expertise would be

very beneficial to my case.

Mr. Jeffries splits his time

He's in Connecticut today.

New York Sun

is Berkley's Auction House.

to my meeting.

- Just one final question.

I couldn't help but notice

you're in partnership
with Berkley's.

What exactly do you guys
do with them?

- We handle
the consignment insurance

for all the items they sell.
Funny you should ask.

The reason I stepped out
was an out-of-town client

who just flew in to pick up

a high-end antique
from Berkley's.

to be an 1885 Pierre Reno
pocket watch, would it?

that you won
at auction yesterday.

We were wondering
if you might

consider dropping your bid

so we could buy
the watch instead?

- I'm sorry
but I can't do that.

- Please,
it's incredibly important.

That watch
was a family heirloom,

for it for 75 years.

Served in Vietnam,

more specifically,
7th Cavalry Regiment,

5th Battalion.

have been at the center

the God Account brought
us back together.

Seems like a very
personal thing to do.

Can you think of a reason
why he would do that?

I saved his life.

It was one of my last days
in Vietnam.

My unit was getting ready
to evacuate

when we were ambushed.

Most of the troops
were already gone,

so we retreated
into the jungle.

Figured we'd wait it out
until air support showed up.

Finally found cover
when I realized

Alphonse wasn't with us.

It was almost dark.
It was pouring rain.

I knew I had to go back.

I searched for several hours,

and by some miracle,

I found him
wounded, but alive.

- Maybe this is his way
of returning the favor.

I mean, Dad, all I'm asking
is for you to introduce us.

I will drive up to Connecticut

and meet him
if that's what it takes.

- Well, that won't
be necessary.

Alphonse is coming
to the wedding.

He'll be here in a few days.
