I'm in a wide open space and standing

Corrigan, 84971.

You can go.

It's always quiet through my ceiling.

The roof comes in and crashes in a daze.

I'm in a wide open space.

It's freezing.

You'll never get to Heaven with a smile on your face from me.

Hey, Corrigan.

We got a message for you.

What message?

Your mommy called.

She said she was sorry she couldn't make it.

She had to go to work.

Get in.

Yeah!

So how was it?

It was beautiful, Dennis.

I'm thinking about going back next year.

Who's car is this?

Oh, and I got you a job if you want one.

- Same place as me. - Nah.

I'm good, man.

I got plans.

What plans?

Venezuela.

I met this guy inside, and he's telling me

all about this oil rig.

So I figured, you know, I get my a passport, a little cash,

and a ticket out of here.

All I need is a start.

Oh yeah.

Where do you get starts from?

Is it yours, Leo?

The car?

It's stolen.

Yeah.

You picked me up in a fucking stolen car, Leo, Dennis.

Are you kidding me?

I feel a little bit of a crash and dash coming on.

What are you doing, Leo?

Stop the car.

Hey!

Pull over!

Stop the fucking car!

Go right in.

Leo, pull over.

I want to tell you that I'm feeling closer.

I can't see.

Leo, pull over.

Oh shit.

Woohoo!

Come on, boys.

Let's get some booze.

Yeah.

Party.

Come on.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Come on, man.

Nathan.

Time to party.

Nathan, hold on.

Wait up.

Stop the truck.

Wait.

No.

No.

Hey, Leo.

What are you doing?

Put it away.

Put that fucking shit away.

Look out!

All right.

What are you carrying for?

I didn't hit anyone.

Don't be such a dink.

Are you kidding me, Leo.

I just got out of fucking jail.

Six months for ripping off a few cars.

Big deal.

Don't ever, ever do that to me again.

You hear me?

It ain't like it used to be, honey.

It never was.

Smoke a joint.

Let's go, Dennis.

Justice, ladies and gentlemen of the jury.

Justice.

What is it?

And what is it worth?

In a libel case like this we have to put a value on it.

Though of course, it's not just about money and never has been.

There's a speech I remember being made

to learn by heart at school.

Time to find a new assistant.

Are you sure that's the quotation?

You left it on your chair.

That's not what you tell Mr. Crane.

It's Shakespeare.

"Who steals my purse steals trash."

Tis something, nothing.

Twas mine, tis his, and has been slave to thousands.

But he that steals my good name robs me

"of that which not enriches him and makes me poor indeed."

He's the senior partner in the firm,

which means after me he's the most

important person you'll meet.

Remember the way.

You'll be doing this a lot when he's got a gig on.

I saw him on the news last night

talking about the Russell case.

Should end today.

Crane hasn't got a hope.

All Selena is going to be getting is his bill.

Selena Russell was bankrupt in every sense

after that newspaper article appeared.

It finished her career.

And as you've heard, she can't get on a plane.

She can't go into a restaurant without people thinking... no,

believing that she's nothing better

than a common prostitute.

Is that justice?

No.

It's a human crime.

And for what was this crime committed?

A tabloid newspaper article, 22nd

read on the nation's toilet. Is that justice?

My client's reputation is her career.

And her career is her life.

And her life is in ruins.

I ask you a final time.

Is that justice?

Well, if not, you tell me how much is it worth?

Where's is that little shit, Miles?

His ass is fired.

I'm sorry, Mr. Crane.

I got to be honest with you, she lost it.

You're a fortunate man, Miles.

I remembered it, just.

How in the hell did you win this one?

Got lucky with the weather.

Here's your fan mail, sweetheart.

I got to get back to work.

Always do.

One is a parking ticket.

- Thanks, Aunt Maddy. - Yeah.

Thanks, Mom.

It was great.

What's that?

My birth certificate.

What do you want that for?

I told you, Mom.

I'm getting my passport.

You're not serious about that oil rig thing.

Yeah. You tell him.

It's a stupid idea.

Hey, you could still rip off cars during the weekend.

Nathan.

Give it to me.

I'll get your passport for you.

Nope.

You lost the last one.

Let's go.

It's a good thing I have time to clean up.

Hey.

What's up?

Ma.

Nathan, I...

Ma, please don't lie to me anymore.

I met your...

I mean Martin.

When I was pregnant with you.

How come you never told me?

I mean I wasted my whole life listening to you.

It was your mother's decision.

My whole life, you've been telling me what to do.

I adopted you.

I gave you everything you wanted.

Criticizing me.

Preaching to me.

You ungrateful...

You never loved me.

But you know what, you're not my father, and I'm glad.

You know I never felt like I belonged here with him.

But I might have a family somewhere.

Your family is here.

Half of it.

His name is Callum Crane.

He was a law student.

Does he know about me?

I never told him.

Why not?

He was very ambitious.

He wouldn't have wanted to be held back by us.

Yeah.

But maybe if you had told him things

would have been different.

Not necessarily better.

He's not the answer to your problems, Nathan.

He won't want to know you.

Better.

Fashion model Selena Russell left the city

courtroom this afternoon considerably

richer than when she went in.

$2 million is one of the largest libel settlements

ever rewarded in this kind of case

and is a personal victory against all the odds for Callum

Crane, one of the country's leading

criminal defense attorneys.

And in other news tonight, a fire broke out down...

All right.

That's the last bottle.

I have to get up next week.

Will they appeal?

I would if I were them.

In fact, I may even suggest it.

One day, Callum, you're a genius for getting the guilty

off and winning undeserving lowlifes vast sums of money

will be punished, I hope.

I bet I make federal judge before you.

You're a devious, amoral hypocrite.

Exactly.

Give Natalie my love.

She prefers diamonds.

How is she?

Who knows?

She's asleep when I leave, and asleep when I get back.

For all I know, she never gets up.

See you tomorrow.

Drive carelessly.

You scared me.

I'm sorry.

What are you doing here?

Having a great night out with my friends, Mr. Crane.

What are you doing here?

This is my first day.

And Miles said he was breaking me in.

Leave it.

I'll give you a ride home.

Are you sure, Mr. Crane?

You can call me sir.

So what do you want to drink?

I'm buying.

Drink.

Whiskey sour, double.

So what about you?

You don't want to be one of our secretaries your whole life.

I don't want to be one of your secretaries at all.

So what do you want?

An easy job which pays very well with absolutely

no skill or education required.

Such as?

Miles'.

Well, I think I'm well overqualified.

Are you married?

I'm really not sure.

Are you?

What do you think?

I never think unless I'm paid.

Are you trying to get me drunk, Mr. Crane, sir?

No.

Why not?

Do you mind if we sit down?

I'd rather watch you fall over.

I thought the idea was to get me drunk.

I know.

What are you trying to do, take advantage of me?

I haven't decided yet.

I think the milk is bad.

Shit.

I'm sorry.

I think this is a terrible idea.

No.

Why?

You are married.

You're drunk.

You're my boss.

You take your pick.

You want to.

I don't want to.

Not anymore.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

Sophie.

Sophie.

You OK?

So sorry.

I'm so drunk.

Leave.

Just leave.

Callum, is that you?

No.

Shut up!

How dare you speak to Faith like that?

She's practicing.

Why isn't she at school?

Why aren't you at work?

I'm not going in for a while.

I'm taking a vacation.

Well, I'll be glad to help you pack.

What is wrong with you, Callum?

Anyone would have thought you lost that case.

Yeah.

You're going to have to go in sometime, Sophie.

I'm thinking about getting another job.

It took you months to get that one.

You can still go to the police.

I don't want to talk about it.

Tell me to do something then.

Tell me his name, and I'll report him.

I keep going over how it happened.

I led him on, Tan.

I'm so stupid.

You said no, and no means no.

Don't let that bastard get away with it.

Your ex-husband's here.

- What does he want? - Damn.

He's early.

Faith, Amy, daddy's here.

We're coming.

Let him in.

Would you, Callum?

And don't mention work.

And why not?

He got fired this week along with half the agency.

Giles.

Hello.

So how's work?

- Natalie didn't tell you. - No.

What?

Daddy.

- Hey. - Daddy.

It's so good to see you.

Pick me up.

Can we go for ice cream?

- So how's my little princess? - No.

Let's go swimming.

Oh, Callum, someone called Miles phoned.

He said you have to go to the office immediately.

- Let's stay up real late. - Dad.

- Dad. - Why?

What else did he say?

Faith.

So what's this urgent problem I had to come in for?

You've got a meeting with the CEO of Trans Pacific,

starting -

three quarters of an hour ago.

Where is he?

On the conference room ceiling.

Thank you, Miles.

Look.

About the other night...

I'll take the stairs.

I'm a little unhappy, Miles.

The efficiency in the office, the atmosphere,

would you say that it's all it used to be?

No.

No.

I was wondering, and that new secretary...

Sophie?

What do you think?

Difficult to say.

I'm not so sure either.

Obviously, it's completely your decision.

You think maybe she's -

Well, like I said, it's completely up to you.

I thought may...

you and she were -

No.

No.

Right.

I just wanted to get your opinion.

Fired?

Yeah.

You're still on your trial period.

No warning necessary.

Why?

What did I do?

Call in next week to pick up your paycheck,

and clear your desk.

- What do you want? - What do I want?

Harassed, propositioned, raped, and fired in my first week.

What more could I possibly want?

Exactly what I've given you, a fresh start.

You know how bad I could make things for you?

How?

You don't have a chance of proving anything.

And since the other night, you've been let go,

so any fuss you make now is going

to look like cheap revenge.

Plus you're getting a month's pay, which is very generous.

If I were your lawyer, I'd really have to advise

against taking any action.

I'm glad we could talk.

No.

No.

He isn't.

Hold on.

He just came in.

What are all those cars doing outside.

You've totally forgotten, haven't you?

Forgotten what?

Most of them are your friends.

God.

Who's this?

The Department of Justice.

Have you been a naughty boy, Callum?

Hello.

What has two thumbs, is French, and loves a blow job?

Moi.

Callum, are you all right?

No.

I'm a federal judge.

A judge?

You made federal judge.

I... I don't believe it.

Neither do I.

Somebody down there likes me.

To you.

Do you ever look at the sky and think

there must be something up there controlling our destiny?

No.

Neither do I.

So what happens now?

I finish this bottle and fall over.

Then, next week, I get sworn in and start

controlling other people's destinies.

It's a funny life.

It's all happened so quickly.

One minute, you're a drunk earning millions of dollars

a year lying to judges.

And the next minute, you're the judge.

Not exactly how I would have put it.

The amazing thing is I've actually got away with it.

Gotten away with what?

Oh, everything.

Leo, answer that, will you?

Leo.

Leo.

Dennis, I'm going into the city.

I'm going to try to find my dad.

That won't take long.

Yeah.

I got his work address, you know.

So it's a start. Listen.

Tell my mom I'm like, sick or something.

You are.

By the way, I...

I borrowed Leo's car.

That was nice of him.

Well, I was hoping you could break it to him.

You know, sort of sort of gently.

Nathan!

Hey.

Excuse me...

Tell Leo we're looking for him.

Tanya.

He's not picking up.

Well, we're going to be late for the open house.

Hey, Tan.

Can you do me a favor and pick up my paycheck for me

at the law office?

Sure.

When?

They're expecting you.

OK.

Well, where are you going?

To see a man about a job.

What job?

His.

I agree.

It's looking good.

I wonder who that is.

Excuse me.

Yeah.

Hi.

I'm looking for -

I'm looking for Mr. Crane.

Mr. Crane doesn't work here anymore.

Oh.

Well, can I get his home address of where he lives?

He's a federal judge for Christ's sake.

I'm not giving anyone his address.

Yes.

Look, sir.

This is really important.

So is this.

A paycheck for who?

Sophie Lennon.

Yes, send her to accounting.

Look.

If it's that urgent, he'll be in tomorrow evening.

You can come back then.

Hello.

Oh, hi, Conor.

No.

Oh, which house?

Oh.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Sir, are you OK?

What?

- Are you OK? - Oh yeah.

Yeah.

I'm fine.

Just...

Thank god.

Is it OK?

- Nope. - Oh god.

Your car.

My insurance.

Oh god.

I have to call the police.

Oh no, no, no, no.

I don't want to...

I don't want to bother the cops.

I mean unless you do.

But your car.

Don't worry about it.

It's a... it's a wreck.

I'm not going to claim.

You mean it?

- Yeah. - Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

I... I'll give you a ride.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

Wherever you were going.

All right.

I was - actually heading down to Mexico.

Excuse me?

Yeah.

It's the first day of my vacation.

I was driving down to Mexico.

Oh no.

What have I done?

- Is that true? - Complete lie.

I was going for a drink.

It's been a long day.

OK.

But I'm buying.

Congratulations, Callum.

- Thanks. - Callum.

Tom.

Well done.

Thanks.

Hey.

Hello, Joyce.

Behave yourself.

Judge.

Well done, Callum.

Glad to have you with us.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer person.

So this horse walks into a bar,

and the bartender says, what's with the long face?

I'm sorry you got stuck with this one, sweetheart.

Shall I take over?

I hope you can stand the drop in income.

I'm sending the children out to work.

That'll be the stripper gram.

That would be typical bad taste

like all of your jokes.

What's wrong with them?

They're terrible.

But they kinda grow on you though.

Stop.

How is everything?

Yeah.

Fine.

You?

You know ever since our little chat,

I assumed there was nothing I could do.

You being a lawyer and paid a fortune for twisting the truth.

Like you said, it was your word against mine.

While you were a lawyer.

Then it occurred to me.

Now you're a judge, I don't have to prove anything.

All I have to do is make an accusation,

and you're finished.

Take some free legal advice.

Be very careful how you handle this.

Do you have any idea what you'll have to go through?

Do you really want to do that to yourself?

No.

But I will unless you resign.

I'm not vindictive.

You can go back to lying for a living for all I care.

But the thought of you being a judge

on a rape case or something.

Sophie, you're upset, and that's entirely understandable.

But I know the system, and I've seen what it can do to people.

And believe me, the only real way

to get over this painful misunderstanding

is to let it go.

Otherwise, it will take over your whole life.

And I just can't see the point of that.

Can't you?

Look.

I know it's difficult being out of work.

If there's anything more that I can give you...

I didn't come here to bargain with you.

You raped me.

And if I haven't read by the end of the week

that you've resigned, I'm going to the police and the papers.

I'll see myself out.

So I got 12 months for first offense.

I got six for good behavior.

Yeah.

That must have been just awful in court.

It was. It was.

I mean I saw my whole life flash in front of me,

and I wasn't even in it.

What do you want?

Zucchini?

I don't think I want another father

that doesn't want to know.

I didn't expect him to be so different.

What do you mean?

Well, the offices, and...

I don't know.

He just... he's from a complete different world.

And besides, I don't even know if I'm the sort of son

that I'd want.

Here.

Sophie.

This is Nathan.

I destroyed his car tonight.

Got a minute, Tan?

Who the hell is that?

I bumped into him when I picked up your paycheck.

- And? - OK.

I like him.

So if you can keep your hands off.

I'll force myself.

He's come here to look for his dad,

so I said that he could stay for a little while.

Where?

On the couch.

Unless I get lucky.

Oh, Jesus, Tanya.

You got to be kidding me.

Oh, he's the sweetest guy.

He wouldn't hurt a fly.

No.

This is our apartment.

You don't tell me who can stay and who can't.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

So there you are.

Where did you disappear to last night?

I was worried.

It's funny.

You want something so much.

Your whole life you think about it.

You plan for it.

And then when you get it, it's like when

you were a kid opening this big present

and finding something really disappointing inside.

That didn't happen in my family.

I think what I was trying to say was it doesn't

feel right being a judge.

What are you talking about?

How would you feel if I resigned?

Are you serious?

Why?

And do what?

You can't practice as a lawyer again.

You've accepted a federal judgeship.

Well, I don't know.

I'll think of something.

You'll think of something?

I think you've finally lost your mind.

You want to give up everything we've worked for, and for what?

To do something you'll think of?

Jesus!

This is insane.

Hey, man.

Where's your wallet?

You deaf, man?

I said your wallet.

Stay where you are.

I'm calling the police.

Get in.

You OK?

Yeah.

That was very impressive back there.

Yeah.

Well, it takes practice.

So you often assault people in parking garages?

No.

And what did I do to deserve your help?

Nothing.

Nothing at all actually.

What do you do?

It varies, I guess.

OK.

You're clear here.

This is where you're getting out.

You don't like the police, do you?

Why?

When'd you get out?

What?

Prison.

You ask a lot of questions, don't you?

Just one more.

You want to make a lot of money?

Hey.

Hey.

How'd it go?

Did you see him?

Well, what was he like?

What did he do?

What happened?

You know what, I didn't really tell him about me yet.

Why not?

I don't know.

It didn't seem right, you know.

But I'm seeing him again on Thursday.

He told me something about a job.

A job?

Yeah.

I figured, you know, you do it well, that's the perfect time

to tell him, you know.

Get on his good side sort of thing.

I don't know.

It was... it was weird.

You know, I'm sitting there.

I'm staring at him, and I'm thinking this is my dad, right.

But it just didn't feel like he was.

Well, turn my back for two minutes.

Nathan, this is Conor.

Conor works with me.

Oh, hey.

Listen.

Is it OK if I stick around till Thursday?

Yeah.

Oh, for Christ's sake.

Oh, darling.

This is so sudden.

I'm cooking Sophie dinner tonight to cheer her up.

There's only enough for two.

Get it?

Don't move.

I want to remember you like this always.

I've just been for an interview.

What happened?

I burst into tears.

Tears?

Is that good?

I mean because I haven't...

I haven't been on too many interviews myself.

Listen.

Why don't you - why don't you let me buy you dinner?

Sorry.

Tanya has arranged for Conor to cook me dinner or something.

Well, where?

I mean there's no one up in the apartment.

I've been trying to get in for an hour.

Really?

Yeah.

Maybe he's called it off.

Dinner then?

So are you and Tanya?

No.

No, no, no.

Are you gonna be?

Why do you ask?

Like I said, I'm nosy.

Well, I... I don't know.

I'm not much of a judge of women.

You sound like someone who's had his heart broken.

Actually, it's my ribs mostly.

You know, modern women...

they're very physical.

How long have you know Tanya for?

Since seventh grade.

She's the best person I've ever met.

You have no idea how lucky you are that she likes you.

It's a good thing I called and made reservations?

My keys are stuck in my sleeve.

Oh.

All right.

Hey, Tan.

Sophie, that is so incredibly selfish.

I'm sorry.

This is my fault. I shouldn't have -

I'm tired.

See you in the morning.

You are so busted.

Yeah.

I guess I should get back into the hallway

before someone else bags it.

You've been promoted to sofa.

Nathan, can you get that?

Hello.

CALLUM CRANE: Sophie, please.

It's for you.

Who is it?

Who is this?

Just tell her it's urgent.

Hey, he says it's urgent.

Hello.

Sophie, it's Callum Crane.

I just wanted to talk.

I didn't have time to apologize properly the other night.

You caught me off guard I'm afraid.

I didn't react well.

Fuck you.

I thought you were meeting your dad.

I am.

Tonight.

Do I look good?

- You think? - Yeah.

You'll do.

So where's Sophie?

Look, Tan.

About last night, nothing...

Why do you like her?

I'm just curious.

Why do men find her so attractive?

I can't... I don't...

Never mind.

Just be careful tonight, Nathan.

Sometimes, people can turn out to be

a really big disappointment.

There's something I want to say.

Say it later.

For now, I want you to listen.

I got a problem.

I'm successful.

I got money, reputation, a large house, a good family,

but I got a problem.

And the problem is blackmail.

A woman with whom I had a brief sexual association

is taking advantage of my position,

and I can no longer meet her demands.

In spite of my attempts to reason with her,

she's threatening to destroy my career and my family

by revealing it all to the press.

So why can't you go to the police?

Because that's no guarantee of keeping the story quiet,

and because destroying somebody's life

isn't necessarily illegal.

It's not a solution.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

No.

I don't.

If the woman disappeared, so would the problem.

Why are you telling me this?

Because I believe you can help me.

Why me?

Because I think you need the money.

I think you're capable, and you have

absolutely no connection whatsoever with me,

the woman, or the problem.

I got one day left before she carries out her threat.

In the envelope is a photograph along with her name

and address.

$5,000 in untraceable cash with a guarantee for another 25

afterwards.

If you don't want it, I'm sure you know

somebody out there who does.

You're gonna trust me with this?

I could spend this and never see you again.

I don't have any alternative.

If you don't help me, I'm dead.

It's as simple as that.

That's it.

Open the envelope, Nathan.

You don't believe him, do you?

Of course, I do.

He's a judge.

Blood's thicker than water.

He wants someone killed, Nathan.

I know. I know.

I know.

So why did you take the envelope then?

You going to do it then?

Nope.

So take the money and run.

Listen. He trusts me.

OK.

I mean he'd never see me again.

- He won't even know I existed. - Let's do it.

Oh, shut up, Leo.

I'm in a world of shit. $30 grand would get me out.

If we don't do it, someone else will.

Oh, come on.

He just got out of the slammer 10 minutes ago.

You know, cars are one thing, but...

Maybe it'd be good.

You know, this woman.

You know, to do...

to do justice.

- Oh, we don't know that. - Look.

He's my dad. OK.

I can't do nothing.

Open the envelope, Nathan.

Oh, fuck. Shut up.

Look.

We're not going to the police, and we're

not going to warn the woman, because we

don't know what happened.

Do nothing.

Say nothing.

I say open it.

Don't worry about your conscience.

I'll do it.

He'd never even know.

Besides, it'd make up for my car.

You're thinking too much.

Don't fuck around.

Come on.

Relax.

Hey.

Nathan.

Nathan.

What are you doing?

I don't want it, Leo.

That's money, Nathan.

It's a way out.

No! No!

God!

I don't want it.

I don't want it.

You fucking idiot!

And next up at KWX morning classics,

news and rush hour traffic.

All after the weather with Mitch Gregson.

A little cool outside, Brenda, today.

We got winds coming up at southwest

5 to 15 miles per hour.

This afternoon, it's going to clear up,

and we are going to have sunny weather about 65, 70 degrees

today.

But the clouds are going to come back in tonight.

And we may see some precipitation.

So make sure to have your umbrellas near...

No jobs?

I'm looking for resignations, not jobs.

What?

Hello.

Hello.

Who was it?

No one.

Tan, I have something to tell you.

Who was it?

Just a name.

When is the deadline?

Yesterday.

The day before.

It doesn't matter.

He won't resign.

He's called my bluff.

Bastard.

And I don't think I can go through with it.

Sophie, I don't think that you want my advice.

I think you just want me to tell you

that you did the right thing.

Go on then.

Sophie, you did the right thing.

I've probably given the guy a hell of a scare.

The worst week of his life.

Still less than he deserves.

I bet he didn't believe I'd do it anyway.

He said I don't have to go through any more shit.

Bitch.

Bitch!

You're just the bitch.

What's this for?

Now I know there's something wrong.

When have you ever needed a reason to drink?

It's probably my turn to apologize.

I've been very tense recently, and I know I've

been difficult to live with.

What was it?

A situation at work, which I handled very badly.

What situation?

It doesn't matter anymore, because the problem's gone away

and so has my solution for it.

I just don't understand you sometimes.

I should go.

Therapy.

Couldn't you miss the shrink for once?

It's boring, I know, but it's

very good for our marriage.

I think he's having an affair.

I don't.

Or a breakdown then.

Something is just not right.

Leo.

You must've been looking for us everywhere.

This Sophie is so gorgeous, and smart, and funny.

What I don't get is what she sees in you.

You know what.

I don't know if she sees anything in me.

That's why I'm going back to find out.

It's like you've got this weird compulsion

of getting your heart broken.

You know what you should try sometime

is going for a woman who is actually interested in you.

And what makes you such a great expert in romance?

Well, the one advantage of women

never wanting to go out with you,

you can stay very objective.

I can see things you can't.

- Yeah? - Yep.

All right.

Here's... here's Sophie's number in case

you can't get a hold of me.

And I guess this is it.

- Take care of yourself, Nathan. - Be good.

You too.

$5,000 isn't enough.

Benny, I'm going to get the rest tomorrow.

Today.

I'm doing a job, big job.

Benny, please.

I thought...

that I was over you.

But it's true.

Oh, it's true.

Sing along, Leo.

Benny, I swear.

Sing it.

But darling,

what can I do?

Louder Leo.

But I don't know, honey.

And I don't know if...

Benny, please.

Sing it!

Crying over you.

Crying over you.

And...

Benny.

Man, I'm cry...

Crying.

Last chance.

Don't disappoint me.

OK.

OK.

OK.

Crying over you.

Hey, Leo.

What's going on?

Just a little singsong with Benny.

Thankfully, he's not killing me till tomorrow.

Did you give him the 5 thou?

You're not going to do it.

Leo.

I'm dead if don't, Dennis.

What do I care about some bitch?

Think about it.

- She's a bad chick. - Come on, Leo.

No!

I need this money.

Hi.

We're not in right now, so leave us a message after the noise.

Hello.

Th-this is a message for Nathan.

If this is the right number, can he call... call Dennis at home?

I-it's an emergency.

Give a little space my friend.

A child of God is walking.

Took a little power trip when he should have..

What did my brother mean by "wait a while

and let's just see"?

Ma'am.

Yeah.

Hi.

I'm here for number 10, but they're not in right now.

I was wondering if you could -

could you let me in please.

- Mrs. Gilbert? - Yeah.

Yeah. That's her.

Mrs. Gilbert.

Ma'am.

She usually gets home in about half an hour.

I'd like to wait for her inside.

Tough.

Hi, Sophie honey.

It's Mom. Call me.

Th-this is a message for Nathan.

If this is the right number, could he call...

call Dennis at home.

I-it's an emergency.

Hello.

Nathan?

Where are you?

Just got back.

I'm about 10 minutes away.

I'm near some bus stop.

Listen.

Can I come over?

I'm sorry.

I'm tired.

It's been a long day.

A Dennis called.

Soph... Sophie.

He said it was an emergency.

He wants you to call him.

Sophie, wait. Listen.

If you're close by,

could you please drop off the front door

keys through the mailbox?

Oh, Christ.

Nathan, I got to go.

Sophie.

Hey, Sophie.

Fuck.

What?

Excuse me, ma'am.

I'm still waiting out here for Mrs. Gilbert.

I was wondering, are you sure?

Could you just let me in to wait please.

Yeah. I'm sure.

Ma'am, I'm -

I'm still waiting.

There's a bar on the next block.

- Why don't you wait there? - Yeah.

I know that, but I want to come in now.

Dennis.

Leo found the envelope, the money, the photo.

Nathan, he's gonna do it.

Nathan, do you hear me?

What am I supposed to do about it?

Sophie doesn't want to see me again.

I got $10 in my pocket.

I got no place to stay, and frankly, I don't give a shit.

Well, you would if it was your Sophie getting smoked.

What do you mean my Sophie?

All I'm saying is you should look at it like that.

What are you talking about, Sophie?

The woman's name is Sophie.

- That's all. - Sophie what?

There, you see?

Dennis, come on.

Lennon.

Same as John.

Dennis.

A-and Yoko.

Are you making this up? No.

I'm not.

I mean... I mean that's what this...

that's the name.

Shit.

Come on. Come on.

Come on.

Hello.

- I - don't believe I got you at home.

Hi, Mom.

Fuck!

Why don't you leave him?

SOPHIE'S MOM: I can't.

Fuck!

You don't have to tell me.

Then, tell me.

All right.

You shouldn't have told me.

Honey, what should I do?

No, Mom.

Mom, I got to go.

What? You have a date?

No. I'm taking a bath.

Honey.

looking for someone..

Everyone's looking for somebody to feel the same.

Everybody's looking for someone...

Yeah.

Yeah.

- You OK? - Yes.

Yeah.

OK.

All right.

We got to get you out of here.

Why?

I'm not kidding, Sophie.

It's not safe for you here.

What?

What are you doing?

You know him, don't you?

Callum Crane, you know him.

Callum Crane.

- You know. - What?

Just tell me the truth. OK, Sophie.

Just... just tell me the truth.

What's it to you?

You screwed him, didn't you?

You screwed him, and you wanted money.

Who told you that?

Sophie, listen to me.

Don't touch.

Sophie, just tell me the truth please.

Then tell me it isn't true.

OK.

Just tell me something.

Just fucking go.

It's true, isn't it?

Get out!

Just tell me the truth.

Fucking get out.

- Fuck you! - Sophie.

Listen, listen.

Wait... wait a second.

Open the door.

Sophie!

Hey! Look.

I'm sorry. It's not safe for you.

You got to open the door. Please.

Open the fucking door, Sophie.

Sophie, I'm sorry.

Sophie!

Listen. I'm going to be outside.

OK.

Don't open the door if anybody asks.

All right.

Sophie, please.

Come on.

Fuck!

Fuck.

Hi, bitch.

You are a bitch.

You're a bitch.

Oh shit.

Bitch!

Here it comes.

Sophie!

You don't mind?

She's your sister.

Of course, she can stay.

Why do you sound so surprised?

You refer to her as the Anti-Christ, Callum.

And I've personally heard you telling her it's

lucky to fly in thunderstorms.

Excuse me.

- I'm in a good mood. - Yay.

Did Faith tell you she got into drama school?

So my check passed the audition?

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Oh.

I'm - expecting friends.

You finally bought some.

That's nice.

Let's go get some candy.

You see the news this morning?

- I wasn't in it, was I? - No.

Well then.

You remember that secretary we had recently,

the difficult one that Miles fired.

- What's she done? - Nothing.

She was battered to death in her apartment last night.

Oh god.

That's terrible.

Do they know who did it?

The cops?

Are you kidding?

They need a diagram to put spaghetti on a plate.

They're appealing to witnesses.

Any possible leads.

In other words...

Shouting and screaming.

And he kept hammering on the door,

but she wouldn't let him in.

I wouldn't have either.

Have you seen him before?

I first saw him about a week ago maybe.

He started sleeping out in the corridor there.

I didn't like to say anything.

Like I said, he... he looked kind of rough.

Do you know his name?

Nathan.

Nathan Corrigan.

He's been sniffing around Sophie for a while now,

but she never wanted anything to do with him.

It doesn't surprise me what he's done.

Doesn't surprise me at all.

Open up.

- Wait up. - Open it up.

- Wait up. - Come on.

I'm coming.

Hold on.

Now!

Where is he?

Where the fuck is he, Dennis?

I don't know.

Now.

Tell me!

I don't know.

I don't know.

Now!

You tell him I want the rest of my money or his dad's name.

I don't care which.

You understand?

Good.

Thanks.

You can't keep doing this.

You think I don't know that.

Why don't you tell Leo where Crane is

and let him get on with it?

Because Leo ain't getting a fucking

thing for killing Sophie. That's why.

Fine. All right.

What do we do about this?

I got her killed, man.

It wasn't deliberate.

That's between Leo and Crane.

Doesn't matter.

Will you forget all that?

There's no shit you're not in right now.

You hand yourself in, and they'll nail you.

You don't, and they'll find you.

You can't give up your dad or Leo

without giving yourself up too.

And even if you tried, they're both

going to finger you anyway.

Give me a drag.

So what do you think?

What do you think I'll get for telling the truth?

15 years for conspiracy to murder probably.

I don't even know why she was killed.

What does that matter now?

That's the only thing that matters now.

Hello.

Let's meet.

I didn't think anything was going to happen.

I need some time.

Tonight.

I don't have all the money.

I said tonight at the docks.

12 o'clock.

Why'd you want her killed?

We shouldn't be meeting.

Your face is all over the news.

How inconvenient for you.

You don't look happy.

Why aren't you happy?

- You got caught. - Yeah.

Yeah. I was, and I didn't even do it.

Why'd you want her killed?

I mean is anything you told me true?

Take the money and get out of the country.

I want the truth.

It doesn't matter now.

It does to me.

Yeah.

She wanted to tear my life apart.

You think I did this for fun?

I want to know everything.

Tell me everything.

You're in trouble.

Take the money.

Oh, "you're."

You see, now, I prefer "we."

It's much more comforting, all that togetherness.

There's nothing between us.

That was the whole point.

Goodbye.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And if you weren't my father, well then

you'd get away home free.

What?

May 1975.

Sonic's made it to the playoffs for the first time ever,

and you get laid by a school senior named Madeline Tanner.

One night, and here I am.

Here we are.

And that's what I wanted to say to you, but I got scared.

You stupid... stupid little shit.

Tanya.

I need your help.

Tanya, wait, wait, wait.

Listen to me. Listen to me.

I didn't do it.

Tanya, it wasn't me.

Tanya, listen to me.

I didn't do it.

Hey.

Give me one good reason why I should trust you.

There aren't any.

Let's celebrate.

Right.

Anything in particular?

I'm a father.

I suppose when you think about it,

it's surprising it doesn't happen more often.

I mean, the number of times that people stumble into bed

with complete strangers and never

see them again, especially you.

Yeah.

It's amazing.

At the time you never recognize those tiny, tiny moments which

change your life so completely.

But it makes you appreciate other things.

Natalie.

And how little time there is for everything.

And you, I suppose.

Thanks for listening, Brent.

I'll go bore somebody else now.

What is this place?

It's a rental property.

They don't move in until tomorrow afternoon.

You'll be safe tonight.

Why don't you go to the police?

My prints are all over the apartment.

Tan, I got a record.

For stealing cars.

I told you.

I don't trust them.

Oh, so you don't trust them, but I have to trust you.

Is that it?

I'm scared, Nathan.

Poor Sophie.

Poor Sophie.

It was just so much.

She didn't deserve this.

It never would have worked between you.

Anyway, your timing was off.

She'd just broken up with someone.

And she was getting over that, and she lost her job.

And before that...

What?

Before that she was...

Tanya?

She was raped.

I don't know his name.

Someone from the office, a lawyer.

She was ashamed.

She didn't think that she could prove it,

so she didn't want to go to the police.

That won't help poor Sophie now.

You're not telling me the whole truth, are you?

Well, what happened?

I know that you didn't kill Sophie.

But you're not telling me everything.

I don't want to see you again until you do.

I'm the judge now.

You raped her, didn't you?

What's it to you?

Tell me!

I regret what happened.

It's a little late for that now, isn't it?

Why'd you want her dead?

She didn't report you.

She told me she would.

Aren't you sorry?

I said I'm sorry.

You can't do it, can you?

What?

You don't think I will.

You think I won't?

You think I care anymore?

Goodbye, Dad.

From now on you'll do everything that I say.

Now, I've addressed this envelope to the DA's office,

and we'll send this tape unless you find me a place to hide,

a passport, and a way out of the country.

So you got until tomorrow.

Who actually killed her?

What does that matter?

This guy Leo.

He used to be a friend of mine.

Well, it's all yours.

Doesn't it bother you at all?

Look.

I feel as bad about it as you do.

It's just not worth it anymore.

I can't see where it's going.

It's not going anywhere.

It's an affair, not a bus.

For God's sake, Brent.

He really needs me at the moment.

I don't know why.

Of course, you never do with him, but he does.

How was therapy?

Exhausting.

Maybe I should introduce myself.

I'm Nathan's father.

Who's Leo?

I want to know where Nathan is.

He's safe.

And if you want him to stay that way,

you'll tell me where I can find Leo.

Last time I heard, he was looking for you.

Then help him out.

I'll be at the Queens Hotel.

It won't be easy.

He's had to disappear, you know.

These real heavy people are after him.

I'm sure you can get him the message.

It's open.

I believe you've been looking for me.

Yeah.

I want the rest of my money.

I gave it to Nathan.

What?

The $25,000.

He told me you two had an arrangement.

No! No!

No!

He did not!

I'll kill him.

I will.

I don't think he understands about business.

Maybe you should just talk to him yourself.

You know where he is?

Seems I'm not the only one that wants you dead, Leo.

Who is he?

The guy that told me to wait here for you.

I'd be interested to know.

Well, you should have chosen your friends more carefully.

Jesus.

You scared the shit out of me.

Come on.

Where we going?

You took the tape.

I want it back.

We'll get into that later.

No. No.

No. Now.

I'm not giving you a choice.

Running away is never an option.

All you can do is trust me.

You got to be kidding me.

All right.

Say nothing.

I'm going to need 48 hours.

Say nothing to who?

What are you talking about?

Cross the bridge to the plaza.

When the phone rings, answer it.

Nathan Corrigan, this is the police.

Place your hands behind your head.

Get down!

Get down now!

Drop the bag.

On your knees.

Drop the bag.

Do it!

On your knees!

Callum, what are these doing here?

They're yours.

I know they're mine, but what are they doing down here?

I was hoping you'd fill them with your things

and take them away along with your children.

If your mother can't fit you in tonight,

please find a hotel and I'll reimburse your expenses

as part of the settlement.

What are you talking about?

What settlement?

The divorce settlement.

Or will you be staying with Brent?

It would be cheaper.

I'd appreciate it if you'd be gone by the time I get back.

You get a confession yet?

We won't need one, sir.

We've got enough forensics and circumstantial to nail

him dead.

Keep at him. I'll call the DA.

We'll charge him in the morning.

Phone call, detective.

Apparently, it's urgent.

Caller says he can identify the real killer, sir.

He says it wasn't Corrigan.

I know it sounds strange.

It all started with the photo that Nathan

brought back of Sophie.

The moment Leo saw it.

He was just obsessed.

He... he couldn't stop talking about her, saying he was...

he was a... he was going to meet this girl and that...

and that she was too good for Nathan.

And... and that how romantic and perfect

it was going to be when he met her for the first time.

He was totally unreal about the whole thing.

I don't know.

Personally, I... I think he was going really weird.

He had had a lot of trouble, and these pretty heav...

Go back.

You're losing the story.

Go back to the beginning.

Come on.

You have to know this.

They're going to go over it, and over it, and over it.

So let's start again from the beginning.

Why didn't you tell us all of this before?

When I found the stuff, the gun and the photo,

and I realized what he had done, I was scared.

I mean I was really scared.

You didn't know him.

He would have killed me.

And anyway, he was a friend since high school.

Didn't seem right.

But then when I heard he was dead,

it didn't seem to matter anymore.

Leo Kilpatrick, on bail for possession, GTA,

assault. I won't bother you with the psychiatric evaluations.

They're taller than my son.

Forensics say the killer was almost certainly

Kilpatrick, not Corrigan.

Blood under the victim's nails was Kilpatrick's.

Plus fingerprints on the gun and photo, which Corrigan

doesn't have.

Plus positive ID of Kilpatrick's motorcycle

outside the house on the night.

What did Tacoma PD say about the explosion?

Gang killing, drug-related.

They weren't surprised.

Very convenient for Corrigan.

It's all too neat.

Yeah.

Well, the people who could tell us what really happened

are all dead.

Shall we get an extension, or let him go?

Corrigan.

- I'm OK, Ma. - I know.

I know.

Hey.

How you doing, man?

Good.

Come here.

I'm sorry.

So we'll go home now.

Actually, Ma, I got to go talk to someone first.

Is that it?

I could have you sent away, you know.

You, Dennis, Crane, all of you.

I suppose you just expect me to forgive you.

You know, I don't know if I forgive myself.

Why tell me now?

You said you wouldn't see me again

unless I told you the truth.

So what am I suppose to say?

"Don't worry about it.

It could happen to anyone.

Let's go get a pizza?"

It doesn't happen like that.

You know what.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have come.

I'm sorry.

Nathan, maybe you should

give me your phone number.

You know, in case I want to call you later and yell at you

some more.

There are few crimes more heinous than that

of rape, and you've shown little or no remorse for the distress

that you've caused an innocent woman.

I hope that 10 years in prison will give

you time to change your mind.

Take him away.

Message one.

It's me.

I - I don't know why I wanted to call really.

I guess just to say goodbye.

And to ask you a question.

How will you ever be able to live with yourself?

1:00 AM, Monday.

Message two.

I sentence you to life.

Hi.

I followed your instructions.

I'm at my mother's.

Maybe we can talk.

Anyway, there's food in the fridge.

And habit, I suppose, but I mailed

that letter on your desk, the one to the DA's office.
