Previously on "The Watchful Eye"...

I went to go see the Wards' old nanny this morning,

and she told me that she's being watched all the time.

I just need to know if I'm safe working for this family.

Mom asked me to write a letter

to the parole board on her behalf.

If she gets paroled, I can get out of this shit hole.

I found cameras all over Matthew's apartment.

Wish we could spy on them.

Roman was gonna bring it up, but I was on my way.

He had Arturo rush it.

Uh, Arturo never rushes anything.

Thank you.

Searched all the common areas, and nothing.

No gems, no clues.

This place is starting to push me to the edge.

Jocelyn tells Alistair that she suspects

that Winthrop stole her treasure.

I want to thank everyone for coming here today.

My name is Otis Winthrop the Third.

And I am the CEO of this Greybourne Corporation.

We are so proud that Matthew Ward and his firm

have become an official Greybourne subsidiary.

Why is Daddy talking to Mommy's friend?

Mommy's friend?

Okay.

Hold it steady. You got it?

- Yeah. I got it. - Okay.

Now, we're gonna go on the count of three, okay?

- Yeah. - One, two, three.

? Happy birthday to you ?

? Happy birthday to you ?

- ? Happy birthday, dear... ? - ? Happy birthday, dear Mommy ?

? Happy birthday to you ?

Make a wish, Mommy.

I wish for birthday hugs.

Oh, go on. Get up there. Go on.

Come here. Oh! I love you. I love you. I love you.

I love you, Mommy.

Happy birthday, Al.

Sorry I can't get out of this meeting.

It's fine.

That's what I love about birthdays...

They're just regular days

but with extra sparkle for the birthday person.

For everyone else, it's just a Tuesday.

Jasper and I have big plans.

Oh, well, let me guess.

Um, same thing you did last year and the year before that...

- Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. - ... and the year before that

and the year before that?

Yeah.

You excited?

Mwah.

Which one is your favorite?

Um...

That tiny, fast one.

Ooh! There he goes.

So, were they really alive before the dinosaurs?

Uh-huh. Isn't that crazy?

Hey, Jas, see if you can find

eight tiny, fast jellyfish, okay?

I'll be right over here for a second.

Okay, Mommy.

Hey.

What are you doing here?

Came to wish you happy birthday.

And to see where things were at with what we talked about.

I haven't had a chance to say anything yet.

Come on. You said you'd talk to him.

I'm trying.

Okay, well, can you try a little harder?

It's family, Scott. They're complicated.

Yeah, I know, but you're not like them.

I'll keep trying.

Yeah.

Okay.

Who was that?

Him? Oh, just a friend of Mommy's.

Did you just say that's Mommy's friend?

Yeah.

Come on. Let's go play Legos in your room.

Hey. Elena?

I'll be right in.

Okay.

Hey. This is Detective Macedo.

This is our nanny, Elena Santos.

Yeah. Yeah, we met the night of the incident.

It's nice to see you again.

Likewise. Is everything okay?

Yeah, I was just asking Mr. Ward a few questions

about the deceased, Mr. Malo.

Oh, I thought the case was closed.

Tying up a few loose ends.

Oh, it wasn't ruled an accident?

Wanted to see if anyone might've been having any problems with him,

see if anyone suspected foul play,

just any details that might've slipped through the cracks.

Uh, you sure I can't get you coffee, anything like that?

Uh, that'd be great, but I-I should get going.

I'll show you out, Detective.

Whatever you need.

Take care.

Great place, by the way.

Thanks.

Trying to scare me?

You trying to remind me that you can flash your badge

and go anywhere you want?

You've been spending a lot of time with this guy.

Just thought I'd get a look at him for myself.

You jealous?

No.

Matthew is Jasper's dad.

I can't avoid him. This was your idea.

Is there anything you want to tell me?

Anything you think I should know?

No.

You come here again, and you'll regret it.

Hey. You heading out?

No. No, it's just me.

Good to see you again, Detective.

Yeah. Have a nice day.

That was a slick move.

You coming to see me?

Uh, no. I'm going to see Darcy.

Brought her this.

- What is it? - It's a necklace.

I saw it, and it made me think of her.

Wow. A necklace.

Bold move.

Wait, is it... is it too much?

I just think at the beginning of something,

it's good to not come on too strong.

Play a little hard to get.

But I'm not hard to get.

I'm extremely easy to get.

That's why you're playing hard to get.

It's a game. You play it.

Just let her fight for you a little.

It'll work. I promise.

And give her the necklace on her birthday.

Hey, you okay?

Sorry if that was triggering for you.

It's fine. He was just doing his job.

Speaking of which, I didn't know you were working so closely

with Otis Winthrop on this project.

If you're asking if it's his signature on the checks, then yeah.

You know him?

He runs the Greybourne Corporation, right?

Don't they call him "The Bulldozer"?

'Cause he buys cheap land to develop

and then he prices people out of their own neighborhoods.

Every developer in Manhattan

gets accused of corruption at some point.

Okay. So everyone's doing it?

You know, it's not easy getting funding for these projects.

I-I mean, if it wasn't for my connection to the Greybournes,

none of this happens, and that's just the reality.

Besides, Otis is family.

His granddad is Mrs. Ivey's uncle or something.

It's a whole twisted family tree there.

You know, there is, um...

there is something else I wanted to talk to you about.

Tomorrow is... Allie's birthday.

- Oh. - And between all the books I read

and the people I talked to,

no one seems to be able to tell me...

exactly how to handle it with Jasper.

There's probably no right way.

Exactly.

I just... I just want it to be like any other day.

Let me know how I can help.

Honestly, just you being here is help enough.

Hey. What you building?

Hagrid's cottage.

Ah.

"These bloody Muggles

and their bloody normal lives.

Don't tell anyone I told you that, Harry."

You sound like Elmo.

Ah.

Hey, that guy that was here, you said your mom knew him?

Yeah. He's her friend.

They would go places sometimes.

So you saw them together more than once?

Do more Hagrid.

But so many people look alike in this big city.

Are you sure it was him?

Yeah, he's Mommy's policeman friend.

Hey.

Hi.

I didn't know you were coming over.

Did you send me a text or something?

I wanted to say I'm sorry for blowing up on you earlier.

Yeah, it's okay.

I just was caught off guard, you know?

Mm-hmm.

I'm sorry, too.

I just never want you to worry about me being over there or Matthew.

And I know you were just doing it out of love, but...

Come here.

I just... I miss this, you know?

Yeah. I miss it, too.

I miss being here.

And laying here.

Doing this.

And this.

Oh. Good morning, Elena.

Morning.

All right. Here you go.

Some cr�me fra�che.

Oh. And a little sprig of mint.

Mmm! Mwah.

Oh.

Special crepes* for a special day.

Well, I have to race to a meeting,

but maybe Elena would like some crepes?

You're working today?

It's just a regular Tuesday, Tor.

Um, you're right.

Wouldn't want them to go to waste.

- Elena. - Oh.

Thank you. Looks delicious.

Okay, so Jasper has tennis at 10:00

and then back here for your math tutor

and then out again for a playdate

with Athena and Coriolanus.

Are those children or novels?

You'll have to ask their parents.

Mwah. Love you, buddy.

Wait, Dad.

Yeah, pal?

Today is Wednesday, not Tuesday.

You're absolutely right. Okay, go on.

- I'll see you later. - Okay. Bye, Dad.

Mm.

I can get that.

I-I am just trying to control one small thing

in a universe of chaos, okay?

Copy that.

Thank you.

What's up?

Today's my mom's birthday.

I know. I heard.

I wasn't sure if you wanted to talk about it,

but you want to talk about it?

We would always go to the aquarium on her birthday.

That must've been really cool.

You know, I remember for my dad's birthday,

my brother and I would go to a Mets game,

and we would eat so many hot dogs

and have so much cotton candy,

and then we would be so sick, but it was so worth it.

Me and my dad would always get a confetti cupcake

from Leo and Lucy's,

and then we would put a candle in it for breakfast.

For breakfast? A cupcake?

What?! That's my kind of breakfast.

You know, we could still do those things.

We could still go get a cupcake

and go to the aquarium and celebrate your mom.

But only if you want.

My dad doesn't like going to the aquarium anymore.

How about you think about what you want to do and you tell me.

Anything you want.

We can go play hide-and-go-seek.

Last time, you couldn't even find me.

I was in the best spot in the whole building.

Yeah, I remember. Where was that, anyway?

What do you got stashed there? Pirates' treasure?

You got diamonds and rubies in there?

Gold?

I promised my mom I would never, ever tell anyone.

It was our secret spot.

Was it in the attic?

I said I wouldn't tell.

You know what? You're right.

It's good to have a secret.

Race you to get ice cream?

Hmm. I thought I heard someone out here.

I have the afternoon off.

You want to catch a movie or something?

What I wouldn't give to be in a freezing-cold theater

and eat my weight in popcorn.

- Mm-hmm. - But I can't.

It's Allie's birthday.

How's Jasper?

He said he and his mom used to share this confetti cupcake

from Baked by Leo and Lucy every year on her birthday.

And I really want to grab him one,

but there's no way I can make it all the way downtown

to that bakery in time for his Mandarin lesson.

Would you be able to get some for me?

Um...

Only if you have time.

And I would owe you a thousand cupcakes.

What would I do with a thousand cupcakes?

I will go, but you have to answer one question first.

Anything.

The guy in the elevator.

Was that a question?

I saw you at the bar with him the other night.

Who is he?

He's a guy I've been seeing.

You have a boyfriend and you didn't say anything?

It's gotten kind of complicated

since I came to the Greybourne,

and he's keeping a really big secret from me,

and I'm struggling with it.

Well, secrets are poison, Elena.

You got to talk to him.

I'd almost rather not know right now.

I just want to focus on making this day

a little easier for Jasper.

I'm off. Operation Cupcake.

Bless you.

Talk him him.

Jasper?

Yes.

Oh, I assure you, I'm very aware.

And that being said, a little gratitude goes a long way.

- Have you seen... - Shh.

Okay. That is all I'm asking.

Thank you.

Honey, you are looking at one fantastic husband.

You want to ask why he's so fantastic?

Can it wait?

I-I don't know where I put that blue peacock purse.

You have 50 handbags, Tory. Just choose another one.

I don't want another one. I want that one.

It was Allie's.

That's a little morbid, isn't it?

Can you just help me look?

Mrs. Ivey's apartment? You really think it's in there?

I-I searched everywhere else that made sense,

and we have to find this ruby, Roman.

If my mom gets out of jail and gets to my brother

and ruins his life like she tried to ruin mine...

Now we have a way in.

It's right here, under these stairs.

But it's not on this floor plan.

You think someone else knows about it?

Somebody does.

I don't know if it was Mrs. Ivey or not,

but I was in the stairway, someone opened the door

and was standing right there.

Oh, dude, I would have lost it if Mrs. Ivey came for me.

Alistair used to live in Mrs. Ivey's apartment,

so Jocelyn must have used these stairs

as a secret passageway to each other so no one would know.

Mrs. Ivey is the only tenant

who doesn't have a spare key at the front desk.

It's like she lives in a fortress.

And you only build a fortress if you have something to protect.

Let me see.

Hello?

Oh, great, you're back. Are you ready to go?

- Go where? - The cemetery.

We're all going together. As a family.

I... I thought I sent an e-mail.

Yeah, you did. I didn't respond.

Which I thought was a very nice way of declining.

It's Allie's birthday, Matthew.

Now, Tory, I'm very much aware of what today is.

Thank you.

But there is zero chance of me dragging my son

back to the place where he watched them

put his mother in the ground.

I'm sorry, but I disagree with your approach.

I think what Jasper...

what we all need is closure.

Well, you thought wrong.

So do we still have to go?

Yes, Dick, we still have to go.

Hey.

Sorry.

I know it's rough what you guys are going through.

I guess it's all part of it, right?

All right, what's your take? Am I wrong here?

I don't want to overstep.

No, come on. I value your opinion.

Honestly.

I don't think Tory has bad intentions.

I think everyone has different ways of grieving

and remembering someone they love,

and they're different, but they're not wrong.

Right, so how come I have to default to her way of grieving?

Well, you don't, but for what it's worth,

when my dad passed away...

Your dad?

Wait, you lost your father, too?

Yeah. A while back.

He took his own life.

Like Allie.

And my mom found any possible distraction,

anything so she didn't have to feel the pain.

She just shoved all her feelings down,

and that made it really hard for me and my brother to cope.

She should have helped us through it,

but she was same as you.

She didn't know what to do, so she did nothing.

I don't know if you can see this, Matthew,

but Tory's not okay.

But at least she's acknowledging her pain.

Hey, saved you a spot.

Thank you for meeting me.

Of course. You kidding me?

I was staring at a blank screen.

Writer's block sucks.

So why are we getting cupcakes?

Elena asked me to pick some up.

They are for Jasper.

How come Elena couldn't get them herself?

She needed the help. I had the afternoon free.

You are a nicer person than I am.

Maybe I'm just a sucker.

Did you know she has a boyfriend?

- Who, Elena? - Yeah.

No.

It's weird, right?

All this time and she didn't mention it?

Some people are super private.

I have this thing where I meet people

who are sneaky and elusive,

and I find them intriguing because I like the challenge,

but I always end up giving more than I get.

You're one of those people.

What do you mean?

You need everyone to like you at all times,

even if it means you're left... holding the cupcake.

And you don't want people to like you?

I want the people I like to like me.

Sure.

Elena, she's nice, but something about her just feels off.

Look, if you want to get her cupcakes, that's fine,

but I'm hearing that you know you have a problem,

so it's on you to solve it.

Okay. Tough love with Kim Stewart.

I am not meaning to be harsh.

It's just I've been in your position before.

I know you can't change the way other people behave.

You can only change the way you behave.

You're an amazing person,

and you deserve to surround yourself

with people who are gonna treat you that way, you know?

I know.

Hi.

- Look who it is. The love guru. - The what?

I use that word ironically,

as you're obviously not a guru.

You know the definition of the word "backfire"?

- Your plan. - What plan? What happened?

I took your advice, and now Darcy's pissed at me.

I ignored her texts like you said,

and n-now she thinks I'm rude?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I didn't say ignore her, be rude.

I just said play it cool.

What's the difference?

The difference is somewhere in between answering her texts

and giving her a necklace.

You know what?

Don't listen to a damn thing I say,

'cause I clearly don't know what I'm doing.

Great.

Next time, keep your free advice to yourself.

I feel bad about keeping you from your writing day.

I don't think you're really keeping me from much.

Are you really blocked, or are you just procrastinating?

What's the difference?

Okay, I guess

I just have doubts that anyone would want to read

any book that I would want to write.

I want to read your book.

How does someone like you exist

in this crazy, messed-up world?

Oh.

I am just as crazy and messed up as everyone else.

I'm just exceptionally cute, so you don't really notice.

Mm.

Mm-hmm.

Um, you got a little frosting.

Can I?

Please.

There.

Perfect.

Ah. You guys are the best.

Thank you.

Ginny, I will return this favor in spades someday.

Yes, you will.

Okay, I'm gonna go.

It's my writing day.

Hey.

Mind if I sit?

Go ahead.

Thanks for meeting me.

When Allie and I were little,

we used to hang out here every day after school...

talk about everything.

What we wanted to be when we grew up,

who we'd marry, how many kids we'd have.

This is where she told me that the two of you were together.

That's when I knew you and I were really over.

Whatever we were.

Well, if memory serves,

the reason we couldn't be anything

is because you were with Otis.

We all have our regrets.

Anyway...

We came here after we buried our parents.

We felt so alone, but

at least we had each other.

And we were sitting right here when she told me

that she was pregnant with Jasper,

and suddenly, just like that, we...

we felt hope for the future again.

And now I'm here alone.

And I-I am so angry.

I-I-I'm sorry, but I am. I-I am so angry.

I-I am angry at her for leaving Jasper,

for... for leaving you.

For leaving me.

Look, I'm angry, too, and I'm overwhelmed.

I cannot let it out or it will consume me.

Ah.

Look at us.

- We're a mess. - Hmm.

Look. Come here.

At least we're a together mess.

Hmm.

The tiny, fast one is my favorite.

Oh, she's so cute.

Did you know that jellyfish produce their own light?

They do?

Just like you.

Is that a confetti cupcake from Leo and Lucy's?

- Dad! - Hi, buddy.

Oh, hey.

Okay, come on.

You know what?

We have to be very quiet, okay?

Because I don't think we're supposed to have food in here.

It scares the jellyfishes.

Careful.

Okay, ready?

? Happy birthday to you ?

? Happy birthday to you ?

? Happy birthday, dear... ?

? Mommy ?

? Happy birthday to you ?

Go ahead. Make a wish.

Yeah! Come here.

Oh, good job, good job, good job.

Oh! Hold the elevator!

Oh, hey, Dick.

Hi, honey. How was your run?

Oh. I'm sure it pales in comparison

to whatever you three got up to.

Oh, we weren't up to much of anything.

Well, whatever it was, looks like you had a great time.

So nice you could be together.

And we got Chinese food.

Yum! Did you happen to get your uncle some pork lo mein?

Uh, I was just gonna have an egg roll

and then grab dinner with you.

Oh, I want to have Chinese food with Matthew and Jasper.

If they don't mind sharing.

Yeah. Plenty of spicy Szechuan shrimp for everybody.

Ah, well, in that case, I'll have to pass,

unless you want to watch me go into anaphylactic shock.

I'm deathly allergic to shellfish, so...

Did not know that.

Well, how could you?

Why don't we go to Nicola's?

No shrimp.

My treat.

Well, we do have something to celebrate.

What's that?

That, uh, call I was on earlier?

It was with your old pal Otis.

Trip? Why would he...

What did he have to say?

He wants to sit down with me.

About what?

Filling a seat on the Greybourne board.

- He said that? - Mm-hmm.

I spoke to him.

I-I made my case the way I told you.

- Mm. - And he said he wants to discuss it with me

next week at the Save New York gala.

Huh.

I thought this was something that you wanted for me.

For us.

We'll finally get to have a say in what happens in the company,

not to mention this building that we live in.

Yes. Yes, I know.

And... And you're right.

I-I'm just...

surprised.

You're surprised that he'd want me?

No.

No, that's... that's not what I meant.

I...

I am really happy for you.

I am.

See? Silver lining to everything,

even days like today.

Hmm?

Let's go grab that dinner.

And that's the end of Round 7.

Hey. You're back. Before I woke up...

What's this?

- You know her. - Where'd you find that?

You know Allie this entire time and you said nothing.

Elena, this...

- Were you sleeping with her? - What?

Were you trying to break up their marriage

so that you could get the money?

Is... Is that really what you think?

I don't know what I think.

I know that you're a liar.

Are you trying to set me up for a fall?

Huh? Is any of this real?

Do you even love me?

You came into my life.

You took advantage of my grief.

You know what was happening with my family,

and I fell for you.

Elena, I promise you, that is not how things happened.

Then tell me, how did they happen?

How is it that you have Allie's coroner's report

hidden in your apartment?

Did you kill her?

What?

- Did you kill her? - No!

No, I didn't kill her. God, no.

You really think I'd be capable of doing something like that?

- I don't know what you're capable of. - Hey, come on. Listen.

Whatever it is you think you know,

I promise you, that is not the case, okay?

- I didn't do any of those things. - Then tell me the truth.

Or I'm gonna walk out that door and I'm never coming back.

Okay. Hey, hey. Listen. Okay, so you were right, okay?

I knew Allie.

And she was special to me.

She was my cousin.

Your cousin?

Yeah. She was my cousin.

So... So, technically, I'm also a Greybourne.

What?

My grandmother had this huge falling out

with her brother back in the day.

Everyone hired lawyers. Threats were made.

As a result, my entire side of the family

was removed from the family trust, okay?

We were just cut out from everything.

So why doesn't anyone recognize you?

Because... Because they don't even know I exist.

They haven't seen my mom since she was a baby,

and they don't know about the miserable,

bitter person that she's become.

She spent her entire life feeling like she was robbed,

and nobody's ever been able to make things right for her.

I need to fix that.

Allie was trying to help me.

So then why didn't you just tell me this in the beginning?

Because the last person I told wound up dead.

That was Allie.

So, yeah, when I saw you at the police station

and I heard your story,

I knew you could probably help me.

And, yeah, I wanted to take advantage of the fact

that you already had your own personal vendetta

against the Greybourne family, okay?

I admit that.

But, hey, since that day, I have completely fallen for you.

Okay, I love you. You know that.

I hope that you know that.

But that's it. That... That...

This is my secret, okay? That's it.

You can do with it whatever you want,

but on my end, this is it.

There's no more holding back.

I just wish you would've told me.

Yeah, well, I should've done a lot of things.

Well, if we're coming clean...

... there's something I haven't told you about.

I didn't say anything earlier because I wasn't exactly sure what it is.

I still don't know what it is,

but I know Alistair was up to something.

Yeah? What makes you think it was Alistair?

I'll show you.

Okay, so what am I looking at?

This isn't... This isn't right.

This isn't real.

This whole room.

I was just in here, and there was...

there was a table here...

and there were chairs,

and there was a... there was a painting of Alistair right here,

and there were paintings of all of his cronies,

and this was... this was used

as some kind of meeting room, I'm sure of it.

There was... Over here, there was...

there was a wallpaper with these flowers,

and there were, like, these eyes hidden in the flowers.

No.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

There was... There was a compartment here,

and this is where I found the box of letters.

And it was... it was all here.

I-I swear.

I... It was all here.

I'm sure of it.

Please don't look at me like that.

Please.

I'm telling the truth.

It was all here.

Just tell me that you believe me.

It was all here.

Yeah, I believe you.

Oh, no. Teo.
