All language subtitles for My Two Husbands

Rusty, this is Maureen Thomas.

I'm at the parking
lot near that bar

you wanted to meet at,
and you're not here.

Call me ASAP, please. [sighs]

[Gunman] Hey!

Eliza should be here any moment.

It's gonna be fine. You'll see.

Wish I had your confidence
in this situation.

[Dane] Eliza's not a child
anymore, and this is my life.

And you are a big part
of it now, Brooke.

Hi.

Would you happen to have a place

to keep this for
me during dinner?

-Yeah.
-Thank you.

There she is.

-[chuckles] Hi, sweetheart.
-[Eliza] Hi, Dad! [chuckles]

-[Eliza] I missed you.
-[Dane] I missed you too.

Look at my beautiful daughter.

Hey, Eliza!

[Dane] You remember Brooke?

Hi.

It's good to see you again.

Good to see you too.

I'm sorry I'm late. I
got held up in customs.

But at least I had time to ship

everything over
except my carry on.

Oh, right, how, how
was Switzerland?

It was Switzerland.

And um, and how long is it
until you get your masters?

One more semester till my MBA.

And then maybe my
daughter will finally

join us at the family business.

[Waiter] Something to drink?

Vodka tonic, please.

[Dane]
You look so beautiful tonight.

What's that?

That is the news I
needed to tell you.

Brooke and I eloped
last week in Vegas.

You did what?

Brooke made me the
happiest man in the world

and became my wife.

Well, she sure didn't
waste any time, did she?

Dad, Mom has only been
dead for six months.

Honey, your mom and I were
divorced for five years.

You went off and married
a flight attendant

who's young enough
to be your daughter!

Eliza!

[brooding music]

-[Dane] Be right back.
-Okay.

[Dane] Eliza!

Eliza, hold on!

Dad, save it.

Eliza, hold, we
need to talk about--

[Eliza] There's nothing
to talk about, okay?

Eliza, let, let me explain.

You haven't known this
girl eight, nine months?

Eliza, slow down. You're not
even giving her a chance.

Watch out!

[Eliza yells]
[brakes squeal and car impacts]

Eliza!

[sirens wailing]

[doctors chattering]

[Dane] Here you go.

[Brooke] Thanks.

Doctor said she's fine.

[Brooke sighs]

She's just a bit banged up.

This is all my fault.

It was just an accident, Dane.

If I would've
picked a better time

and place to tell her--

I called Carly and
told her what happened.

I'm afraid my sister-in-law
wasn't exactly thrilled

at our big announcement either.

We should check on her.

You know, why don't
you go in by yourself?

I, I, I think you
guys should talk.

-Yeah?
-[Brooke] Yeah.

Okay. Be out in a bit.

Okay.

[Brooke sighs]

[machine beeping]

[door knocking]

I really don't wanna
talk to you right now.

[Dane] What were you thinking,

running out of the
restaurant like that?

So this is all my fault?

You could have been killed!

Probably would've made
your new wife happy.

That's not fair, Eliza.

Brooke has done nothing to
earn this hostility from you.

If you just get to know her--

I don't--

I don't wanna get
to know her, Dad.

Do you know how
much that hurt me?

That you ran off and got married

and didn't say a
word to me about it?

I'm sorry, I should have
spoken to you first.

You know, Mom didn't
approve of her either.

[Dane] I know.

Eliza!

Aunt Carly!

[Carly] You okay?

[Eliza] Yeah.

How did this happen?

It was just a freak accident.
She's lucky it wasn't worse.

I'll give you two a few minutes.

Eliza, sweetie, talk to me!

I mean, what do you think
of this instant marriage?

Your parents haven't been
together for a really long time.

My sister had moved on.

[Eliza] Okay, but they were
still best friends.

Mom did not trust Brooke.

Maybe we should give Brooke
the benefit of the doubt,

though, for your dad's sake.

Why don't you get some rest?
We can talk about it later.

Okay.

[brooding music]

[Carly] Love you.

[door closes]

[brooding music continues]

[dog barking]

[Brooke] Thanks.

I am going to head
upstairs; I'm beat.

Okay, I'm gonna make some
tea first. Do you want any?

No, I'm good, thanks.

-Okay.
-See you upstairs.

All right, I'll see you in bed.

[mysterious music]

[mysterious music continues]

[birds chirping]

[Dane] Well,
look who's up early!

Good morning, beautiful.

Good morning.

I am gonna stop by the hospital,

thank you, on the
way to the office

and see if they're ready
to discharge Eliza.

If so, I'll bring
her back myself.

[Brooke] Oh, good. I hope
she's doing okay.

Um, you're not gonna like this.

Uh-oh.

Scheduling just switched
me to a four-day trip.

They're just really short on
flight attendants this month.

Sweetie, there's no reason
why you need to keep flying.

[Brooke] I know. That's not
the point though.

You know I love my job
and I love traveling.

Well, now you can
travel as a passenger.

[Brooke chuckles]

Plus, if we're gonna start
our own family one day--

We are going to
start our own family,

but we've only been
married a week.

I want at least a year to
enjoy each other as a couple!

I also need a little bit
more time to win over Eliza.

I love that about you.

And I know my daughter can
be a tough nut to crack.

But with what happened
to her mother,

she's gonna need all the love

and support we can
give her right now.

Love you.

-Talk to you later.
-See ya.

[mysterious music]

Oh, Eliza, you're,
you're, you're here!

It is my home, remember?

Oh, of course!

Your father just
went to the hospital

to see if he could
bring you back.

[Eliza]
I texted him. Took a ride share.

[Brooke] Well, I'm, I'm glad
you're feeling better.

I mean, you gave
us quite a scare!

Oh, I was just about
to head out on a trip.

Um, I'll be gone a few days.

Okay. Don't let
me keep you then.

But maybe when I get back,

we could go to lunch or
go shopping or something?

Sounds like fun.

You know, I'd appreciate it

if you didn't use that
tone with me, Eliza.

I'm just trying to get
to know you better,

you know, become friends.

"Friends", huh?

All right, well, um,
I'm gonna head out,

but I hope eventually you'll
realize that I'm not a threat.

I'm just trying to
love your father

for the amazing man that he is.

Whatever, Brooke.

[tense music]

[tense music continues]

[tools whirring]

[Cherry] Hey.

[Stefan] Hey.

I just checked with
the electrician.

He's gonna take a look at the
wiring in the women's room

again to see why the
power keeps going out.

At least the security cameras
are finally up and working.

Think we're still on track
to open in three weeks?

We don't have a choice.

I need this place to
start making cash.

So, I have a question for you.

Yeah?

I'd love to pick up a
serving shift here or there

if there's an opening
in the future?

I could really use the tips.

Yeah, sure. We can do
that soon, I promise.

Thanks, Stefan.

So, when's the wife
get back to town?

Soon.

You must get lonely being
by yourself at home so much.

[phone ringing]

I'll get it.

[curious music]

Freed Nightclub.

[Caller] Stefan, please.

Sure. It's for you.

[curious music continues]

This is Stefan.

[Caller] Where's the
money? You're past due.

I told you I would have the
money by the end of the week.

I'm good for it. I just--

[Caller] No more
excuses, Stefan.

Get me the money
or I shut you down.

-I hear you.
-[Caller] Pay in full

pronto, you get it?

-I got it.
-[Caller] Good.

[crickets chirping]

-[keyboard clacking]
-[curious music]

[Dane] There you are!

Dad. Gosh, you scared me.

I brought your favorite
Thai for dinner.

Oh, that's okay. I'm meeting
up with Aunt Carly soon.

What are you working on?

Um, I'm just researching
some companies

that I'm interested in
working for after grad school.

Yeah, I don't understand
why you don't just

come work for me at
the family business!

Dad, we have been over this.

I wanna spread my wings.
Do some things on my own.

Mom wanted that for me too.

Look, I- I know how tough

these last few months
have been on you,

but I think you're being
a little unfair to Brooke,

and frankly, to me, too.

What are you trying to say?

Can't you just extend Brooke
an olive branch for me?

Dad, you met this
woman in a hotel bar,

and then the next thing I know,

you're seriously
dating her, and then--

Oh my gosh, she's
not pregnant, is she?

No, she's not pregnant.

But we have talked about,

perhaps,

expanding our family one day.

[gloomy music]

It's your life.

Eliza!

[sullen music]

[Carly] Eliza, what is it?

Have you, um, have
you heard anything

from the police lately?

Any new leads?

No.

They seem pretty certain it
was just a mugging gone bad.

It just makes zero
sense, Aunt Carly,

why my mother would've been
out there to begin with.

Why don't the two of us
go down to the station

and talk to the detective
in person, okay?

[tense music]

Sure.

[Brooke on com] As we get close
to landing in Charlotte,

I want to remind
you to stay seated

until the aircraft has
come to a complete stop.

If you have a connecting flight,

be sure to check the
displays inside the terminal

for the most up-to-date
departure times.

[tools whirring]

[gentle music]

Um, hey, Cherry. Is Stefan here?

He's upstairs.

Okay. I'm gonna leave
this here, okay?

[tools whirring]

[Stefan] Yeah, I think these two
are the most important.

We need to take care of
those pretty quickly.

-[Foreman] Okay.
-Thank you.

[sighs] That layover hotel
was awful last night.

Did you get it?

Of course.

The ex-wife sure
had expensive taste.

[Stefan] Wow, very nice.

You always come
through for me, baby.

Well, of course. You're
my favorite husband.

Mm.

[tense music]

[Brooke chuckles]

This place is
definitely sketchy.

[Star]
Ah, I've hung out at worse.

[chuckles] You and your
penchant for bad boys!

What?

I can't help it if I like 'em

a little rough around the edges.

[Eliza chuckles]

[Eliza] Down the street,
there's a parking lot.

That's where my
mom was murdered.

Oh my gosh.

Babe, is it really a good idea
for us to be here right now?

I have to find out what
happened to my mom.

What if someone in that
bar knows something

that the police haven't
even discovered yet?

Wouldn't they have
uncovered that by now?

You really think the
people coming here

are super eager to talk to cops?

Point taken.

But with two young women
looking to have a good time,

people's lips might loosen.

Okay then. So let's do this.

Come on.

[upbeat music]

[upbeat music continues]

[Star] Lotta old people here.

[brooding music]

[Star] Hmm.

Hi, how are you?

[Gus] Hey. Can I help you
two beautiful ladies?

Why, yes, you can !

What can I get for you?

[Star] I'll have a--

[dog barking]

[sighs] I really
missed you, babe.

I missed you too.

[curious music]

What's wrong?

I just--

Are you developing
feelings for him?

No, no, of course not.

You know it's me and you, baby.

You've got to keep your
eye on the big prize

because without that money--

I know, I know.

And between converting that
old church into a nightclub--

Which was a great
idea, by the way.

And with all the renovations

and hiccups along the way,

even I didn't see it
costing this much.

Just have to hang in.

[Brooke] It's just harder than I
thought it was gonna be.

I mean, I feel like I'm cheating
on you when I'm with him.

Don't you worry about that.

I know you're doing
this all for me.

Yeah, well, Eliza,

she's not going to make it
easy or pleasant for us.

She looks like a
little spoiled brat.

People like her have been
given every advantage

and they don't
appreciate any of it.

Just stick to the plan.

Be sweet as pie to the old man

and this next year will zoom by.

Okay.

[Stefan] Good night.

[Gus] Haven't seen you
ladies here before.

Well, let's just say we
like to mix things up.

Sometimes our side of town
can get a little mundane.

[upbeat music]

[Eliza] Um, isn't this the place
near that parking lot

where that rich lady
died a few months back?

I-I saw it in the
news. It's awful.

[Patron] Can I get another beer?

Give me a sec.

Eliza, you have to play it cool.

You're about as
subtle as a 1970s

neon green polyester pantsuit.

Don't scare him off!

Fine. But I'm telling
you, he knows something.

I can feel it, Star,

and I am not gonna stop
until I find out what it is.

[tense music]

[phone keys clacking]

[phone beeps]

[Dane]
Look, Carly, even though

Maureen and I had been
divorced for years, I still--

[Carly]
Cared about her a lot. I know.

Frankly, I was always impressed

how your relationship
progressed into

such good friends
after the divorce.

We did it for Eliza.

I wanted to let you know

that I'm gonna set
up another meeting

with the detective on Maureen's
case for Eliza and me.

Why?

[Carly] I think Eliza needs
to hear one more time,

we may never know
exactly what Maureen

was doing at that
location when she died.

Maybe. I hope it helps.

I certainly didn't help things

the way I handled
the Brooke situation.

[gentle music]

We haven't talked about it
since Maureen's passing,

but we were planning--

[Dane] To tell Eliza the truth
about her birth.

And then Maureen
died, yeah, I know.

We should have told her earlier,

but we kept putting it
off again and again.

Maureen was always
convinced that Eliza

would have a meltdown
if she knew the truth,

but I think she was just afraid

that their relationship
might suffer as a result.

And now with
everything going on,

I'm not sure this is
the right time either.

Have you told Brooke?

Well, we can't put off
telling Eliza much longer.

I know.

[gentle music continues]

Well, that led to nowhere.

I'm sorry, hon,
but I don't think

anyone knows anything in there.

It was almost six months ago.

[Flo] Hey!

Uh, can we help you?

I might have some
information for you,

for the right price.

[Flo] I heard you asking
questions about that woman

that got murdered
in the parking lot.

Why are you interested?

If you know anything
about what happened

that night, please tell me.

[Flo] Maybe I might've
seen something.

[Star] Come on, Eliza, she's
just trying to scam you.

[Eliza] Wait a minute, I wanna
hear what she has to say.

[Flo] Not now.

Put your number in it
and I'll call later.

How do I know you're
not just working me?

That woman who died, I saw

someone I know following
her that night.

[Eliza] Who?

Did you tell the police?

No, I can't afford
to be on their radar!

I'll text you a meeting place
and a price. Bring cash.

Great, okay.

[phone keys clacking]

I'll be in touch.

Let's get outta here. Come on.

[tense music]

[Flo] What the--?

You need to be careful who
you're talking to, Flo,

or something bad
might happen to you

like this!

[knife stabbing]
[Flo yells]

[Flo gasping]

[tense music]

[tense music continues]

-[phone rings]
-[gentle music]

Hey, what's up?

[Gus] I found a
place that'll work.

Should be completely abandoned.

I'm gonna have her
meet me there tonight.

Do you know what
needs to be done?

Yes, I know what
needs to be done.

I always do. [sighs]

[Carly] Wait up!

[Eliza] It's ridiculous
that we have to

badger these people
to do their jobs.

[Carly] Hey, slow down!

I truly believe the police
are doing the best they can.

They just don't
have a lot to go on.

Why aren't you
angrier about this?

Are you suggesting I
don't wanna find out

why my own sister died?

Okay, well, it seems
like I'm the only one

who's trying to get
real answers here.

[phone dings]

[tense music]

Is something wrong?

No, it's just Star.

[Stefan] I told you not to
worry about the money.

I have this taken care of.

I'll bring it over now.

Thanks, baby.

This money from the necklace
is really going to help.

What would I do without you?

[chuckles]

I just wish--

[curious music]

What?

I don't know, Stefan,
it's getting really hard

to maintain this
relationship with Dane.

I mean, no matter
what we agreed on,

I still feel like I'm
betraying our marriage.

I don't know, maybe we should--

You're doing all of
this for us, sweetie.

It's because of your sacrifices

that we'll finally have
everything we've dreamed of

and never thought we'd have.

But how do you handle knowing
I'm in another man's bed?

Because

I know it means nothing to you.

I'm the one who has your heart.

Mr. Corporate Raider
has no claim on that.

Let me know when you land.

[Brooke sighs]

[phone beeps]

-[phone beeps]
-[tense music]

The detective
assured me they would

let us know if they
got a new lead,

which you would know
if you hadn't run out.

Okay, I am sorry I ran
out of the meeting.

I just couldn't sit there
and listen to that detective

say the same thing
over and over again.

I am frustrated. They are
not being proactive enough.

I know. I understand.

They're still investigating.

Come here.

Let's go.

Okay.

[Eliza sighs]

[phone ringing]

Come on, Star. Pick up, pick up.

[Star Voicemail] You've reached
Star. Leave me a message.

[phone beeps]

Star, that woman from
the bar contacted me.

She wants to meet at a park
tonight outside the city at 11.

I think I'm gonna go.

Call me, please?

[phone clicks]

-[door creaks]
-[suspenseful music]

[Eliza sighs]

[suspenseful music continues]

[lock beeps]

[suspenseful music continues]

What are you doing, Eliza?

Dad!

Sorry, I-I thought you'd
gone up for the night.

Oh, I came down for a snack

and I thought I heard
somebody in here.

Well, I was just
gonna use your laptop.

Mine ran outta battery,
so it's charging.

Well, you wanna join
me in the kitchen?

I have an amazing
cheesecake in the fridge.

I'd love to, but I am
meeting Star for a drink.

Rain check?

Sure. But you're gonna
go out this late?

Dad, it's 10. It's hardly late.

[Eliza]
Don't wait up, okay?

Just be safe, okay?

Of course. I love you.

I love you too.

[Star on phone]
Eliza, please don't go.

It'll be okay. I
know what I'm doing.

[Star] You've got to be
careful with this woman.

Who knows what her
real agenda is?

I have to find out
what she knows, Star.

[Star] And if it's a scam?

Well, I gotta give it a shot.

Okay, you know what?
Text me the address.

I'm gonna meet you
there. No arguments.

Fine.

[gentle music]

[groans] Hey, you're here.

The overnight I was supposed
to work got canceled,

so I decided to come home early.

Oh, you are a sight for
sore eyes. Come here.

Let me take a shower first.
It's been a really long day.

Hurry up. Can't wait
to have you next to me.

I know, me too. One sec.

[Dane sighs]

-[Brooke whimpers]
-[tense music]

[Brooke sighs]

[tense music continues]

[phone clicks]

[phone keys clacking]

[tense music continues]

-[door knocks]
-[Brooke gasps]

[Brooke] One second!

Hey.

I can't sleep, so I'm going
downstairs to watch TV.

Wanna come?

Uh. Yeah, I'll be right down.

Okay.

[tense music]

[Brooke sighs]

[phone rings]

Yeah?

Are you sure about this?
You've covered all your bases?

Have I ever let you down?

I just want to make sure
we stay on the same page.

[Gus] She's here. Gotta go.

Don't screw this up.

[tense music continues]

[tense music continues]

[tense music continues]

Hey! What's going on?

Got here as fast as I could.

Hey.

You two were at the--

[Star] Green Lizard
bar last night.

What a coincidence, running
into you tonight here.

I live near the park.

Usually go for a run
at night when I can.

What are you two
doing in these parts?

-Um--
-Um,

We are meeting with a friend.

We're supposed to go
on this night hike.

Apparently there's, like,
really good trails around here.

You don't really look
dressed for a hike.

Uh...

I told you that we were not

wearing the right
clothes for this.

Right, she, she did.

We're really new to
the whole hiking thing.

Okay.

Well, you two ladies
enjoy your hike.

Hope to see you around again
though. You know where I work.

See ya!

Okay, that was super weird.

Yeah, more than just a little.

[grim music]

[phone beeps]

[phone keys clacking]

[phone dings]

-Oh, hey, it's her.
-Oh?

"Had to leave. Saw you
had someone with you.

You weren't supposed to do that.

Will text later.
Do not contact me."

Gosh, Star!

Okay, so what are
you gonna do now?

I have no idea.

[birds chirping]

-[Brooke groans]
-[tense music]

Mrs. Thomas, are you okay?

Oh, Mildred, you scared me.
I didn't hear you come in.

I'm sorry. You don't
look like you feel well.

Can I get you anything?

Oh, no, I-I'm fine.

I think I just picked
up a bug while flying.

[Mildred] Well, let me know if I
can fix you any breakfast.

Hey, what about some ginger tea?

Yeah, sure, thank you.

You're up early. Thought
you were off today.

[Brooke] Yeah, I am.

She isn't feeling well.

Really? Are you okay?

Oh, no, I'm, I'm fine.

It's probably just a virus I
picked up traveling. [chuckles]

Do you want me to
call the doctor?

No, no, I'm, I'm fine.

Okay. Love you.

[tense music]

[tense music continues]

[Brooke] Oh, Carly!

Morning.

This is a surprise.

Sorry, I know it's early, I
just came by to see Eliza.

Oh, um, I don't think
she's come down yet.

Do you mind if I
just head upstairs?

She's expecting me, actually.

Oh, sure, of course, come on in.

Um, I actually was
just about to, um--

Head out?

Right. See you later.

Mm-hm.

[curious music]

[door knocks]

Come in.

I'm shocked you're up
and about this early.

Did you sleep at all last night?

Insomnia.

Sweetie, what's going on?

Okay, don't get mad, but--

Oh, I hate to ask.
Where's this going?

[curious music]

I kind of did something a
little crazy last night.

[Phone voice] Family Tree DNA
Labs. How may I help you?

Hi, I called about
paternity testing.

I was wondering if you
could do a rush job?

[Lab Worker] Yes, we can.
Do you have a sample?

Um, uh, yes, I have some
hair from my hairbrush.

Will that work?

[Lab Employee]
Yes, that'll be fine.

Okay, great. Thanks.

I can't believe you tried to
meet up with shady people.

What were you thinking?

Look, I know, but--

[Carly]
No, you don't know.

Do you realize how devastating

this would be for your father,

for me, if something
happened to you?

I know, Aunt Carly, I'm sorry.

But I had to do it.

Even if there was
the slightest chance

something could come of it.

You have to start thinking
before you act, Eliza.

[Stefan] If you don't mind
breaking down those boxes

before you go?

Thanks.

[tools whirring]

[Cherry] Hey.

Hey.

Anything I can help
you with right now?

[sighs] Maybe, if
you can confirm those

DJ interviews tomorrow for me.

You got it.

Hey, I was wondering if

you might have some time
later this afternoon

for that private
training session?

[chuckles] Uh, yeah.

I'll have to double
check my schedule,

but I think I have an open slot
in about an hour, actually.

-[phone ringing]
-Great. [chuckles]

I need to get this.

Okay. See you later. [chuckles]

[tense music]

And just when were you
planning to update me?

[Gus] I had to abort the plan.

Look, I'm skipping town before
things spiral out of control.

I'm out.

[phone clicks]

[phone clicks]

[Stefan sighs]

[Mildred] Dammit!

Mildred? You okay?

I lost my contact. I think
it fell in the trash can.

Oh, let's go and help her.
[both chuckle]

[trash rustling]

What's that in your hand?

[Mildred]
I'm sorry, I-I was just looking.

[ominous music]

He said they weren't planning on

having any kids right now.

Eliza.

I didn't mean to pry, I--

It's okay, Mildred.

Brooke-really didn't
waste any time, did she?

I have another contact
in my purse anyway.

Why don't I just go
ahead and go get that?

Dad lied to me!

Eliza!

Eliza, just take some
breaths before you--

Aunt Carly, not now!

[Brooke]
What? What's going on?

Guess this is one way to

cement yourself into
my father's life.

When were you and my dad
planning on telling me

about the newest
addition to the family?

No, no, he doesn't know
yet! I-I-I haven't told him!

What? Why not?

I just took that
test last night.

I-I-I haven't found
the right time yet.

This is none of our
business, Eliza.

I disagree.

Please, can you just
keep this to yourself

before I find the right
time to talk to Dane?

Please.

Why should I?

Because it's not
your story to tell.

Why don't we give
Brooke some space?

Okay.

Mom.

[tense music]

[Brooke sighs]

[phone keys clacking]

[phone beeps]

Hey, you.

Why don't you have
that cup of coffee

and then go take a bath?

I want my dad to be happy.

I know.

I just don't trust
her, Aunt Carly.

This happened too fast!

It's your dad's
life to live, Eliza.

That's what matters most.

Back to last night,

did that mystery woman
you were supposed to meet

tell you anything beforehand?

No, other than someone was

following Mom that
night at the bar.

And we still don't know why
she went to that part of town.

Huh.

And I swear, something was
off with that Brooke woman.

She knows I'm onto her.

I have even thought about hiring

a PI to look into
her. [chuckles]

Hmm.

What?

Your mom, she--

She what? Tell me.

Before she died, she
said she might hire

a private investigator
to look into Brooke.

I wonder if she ever did.

Oh my gosh.

[Carly] What is it?

I went through some
of Mom's paperwork

in her office after she died,

and I found a business
card for a PI.

I didn't think much
of it at the time

because she always
ran background checks

on new investors for her
real estate holding company.

But maybe there was more to it.

Do you remember the name
of the investigator?

No. No, I don't.

I still have some of her
paperwork in boxes in my attic.

[brooding music]

[Eliza] This is the place.

That's him.

Well, since he didn't
answer the phone,

maybe this will work.

[door knocking]

[Jane] Can I help you?

[Carly] We were
hoping to speak to a

Mr. Rusty Snyder, please.

[Eliza] I think my mom may have
been a client of his,

but we wanted to--

I am, was, Rusty's
assistant. I'm Jane.

I hate to tell you this, but
Rusty died just a few days ago.

I need to finish up a call.

If you'd like to come in and
wait, you're welcome to do so.

[tense music]

Well, I'm glad you're
feeling better.

I was worried about
you all morning.

[Brooke sighs]

What's on your mind?

Well, I need to
tell you something.

I really wanted to wait until
tonight, but Eliza found out,

and I know that there's
only a matter of time

before she tells you first.

What's wrong?

Well, nothing per
se, it's just, um,

I'm pregnant.

You, you're pregnant? Really?

Yeah, I took a home test,
and a doctor confirmed it.

[laughs] That's amazing!

You're happy?

Happy? I'm over
the moon! [laughs]

I missed so much of
Eliza's growing up,

building up my company.

This is my chance
to do it right!

And I promise you, I
won't let you down.

[Brooke chuckles]

[phone beeps]

Oh, sorry, it's scheduling.

I think they probably want
me to take another shift.

What?

No, no, I thought I had you
for at least another night?

Um, yeah, but
remember I told you

they're really short staffed?

Yeah.

I-I need you to promise
me something, Brooke.

Yes?

Now that we have
a baby on the way,

I need you to think about
cutting back your work hours.

I don't want you under
any additional stress.

Let me pamper you
during this pregnancy.

[chuckles] Okay,
I'll think about it.

Why are you so good to me?

I don't know.

Maybe because I love
you and you deserve it.

[both chuckling]

[Jane] I tried to get Rusty
to cut back on fried

and processed foods, but
that man couldn't turn down

a chili dog if his
life depended on it!

Turns out it did.

He had a heart attack
on the first day

of his vacation in The
Bahamas with his wife.

I'm sorry to hear that.

[Jane] Now I'm just
breaking down the office.

Packing boxes.

Is there any way
you could tell us

if he was working for my mom?

No, I'm sorry, that
would be confidential.

But if your mom
were to come in--

[Eliza] She can't. She passed
away six months ago.

[Jane] Oh, I'm so sorry.

[phone rings]

[Carly] Excuse me.

It's the office.
Let me take this.

-[Eliza] Okay.
-Excuse me.

[Carly] Hi, what's up?

I realize that you're not
supposed to tell us anything,

but my mom, Maureen
Thomas, was murdered.

Oh dear.

[Eliza] We're trying to put
the pieces together

about what was going
on before she died.

And I believe she
may have hired Rusty

to investigate my
dad's girlfriend.

[pen scribbling]

Please, if you
find out anything,

will you let me know?

[Dane] Drive you home?

[Brooke] Uh, no, it's okay. You
need to get back to the office.

You sure?

Yeah, it's fine,
I'll take a car.

You've got precious
cargo in there!

[chuckles] I'll be fine.

You really are
excited, aren't you?

Of course I'm excited.

You made me the happiest
man in the world.

You treat me so well. Better
than anybody ever has.

I love you, and I'll
see you tonight.

[Brooke chuckles]

[Brooke sighs]

[phone beeps]

[papers rustling]

[Jane] Hmm.

[intriguing music]

[intriguing music continues]

[Eliza] Star, I feel like
I'm just hitting

one dead end after another.

And now Brooke is pregnant! God.

Babe, I'm worried about you.

What are you talking about?

Being obsessed with
your new stepmommy?

It's not good. Your
mom was a great woman.

She wanted you to move on
with your life and be happy.

And I know that,

but I cannot just forget
what happened to her.

Of course not, but you have
to live your life also.

[Eliza sighs]

[Brooke sighs]

-[phone rings]
-[ominous music]

[Brooke clears throat]

Hey.

[Stefan] Haven't heard
from you in a while.

Um, yeah, I'm, I'm
just about to leave.

I-I picked up a trip
to Austin tonight.

Something's up. I can
hear it in your voice.

[Brooke] No, no, it's just...

There's just a lot
going on right now.

Are you feeling guilty
about our plan again?

No, no, it's just, um,

it's just a little harder than
I thought it was gonna be.

Well, you need to pull
yourself together.

Now's not the time to be
slacking off. We're so close.

And I need you to find
a way to get another

10 grand within
a couple of days.

Wait, what? How?

I don't know. Just do it, okay?

If you don't, I'm going to
be behind on a loan payment.

I gotta go. I got
another delivery.

Wait, I... [sighs]

-[phone clicks]
-[tense music]

[crickets chirping]

Thanks for coming over.

I've been doing a
lot of thinking,

and I think it's past time
we do the right thing.

Are you saying what I
think you're saying?

I have a new child
coming into this world,

and Eliza is bound to
feel thrown off by that.

If we're not
upfront with her now

and she finds out that--

I'm her birth mother.

[Dane] She's probably
gonna be real hurt.

We need to take control
of the situation.

[Carly] I agree.

Birth mother?

Eliza!

We didn't hear you come in.

This is a joke, right?

You're not really my
birth mother, are you?

[Dane]
Eliza, please, just take a seat

and give us some time
to explain things.

"Explain"?

How could you two lie to me
about something like this?

Eliza!

Please! Eliza!

Wait! Eliza, please.

Just, please.

Eliza, let me in so
I can explain myself.

I don't wanna hear anything
you have to say right now.

I want you to understand
what happened.

I was only 16 years old.

My first boyfriend had just
broken things off with me,

and I found out I was
pregnant with you.

The ex-boyfriend,
he was older and

he didn't want anything to
do with me when he found out.

Your mother, she came
to me with an idea.

Your father and her
had been married

for a few years at that point,

and the doctors said Maureen

would never be able to conceive.

It seemed like the
answer for all of us.

You've got two parents
who absolutely adored you,

and I still got to
watch you grow up

and be part of your life.

And neither of you thought
to tell me this much sooner?

I am 26 years old!

How could you keep
this a secret so long?

Your mom was always concerned

that that would change
our family dynamic.

And I agreed.

And so we just kept putting
it off for way too long.

I-I know that now.

[Carly] And we all agreed to
tell you earlier this year,

but then Maureen died,

and of course, that
was so hard on us all

that we didn't wanna burden you

with this too at the same time.

[Dane] I'm sorry, honey.

We were just doing what we
thought was best for you.

By lying to me all these years?

You know, you must be thrilled
to have a child on the way

that's biologically yours.

[Carly]
Eliza, that is not fair!

[Eliza] I gotta get outta here.

[brooding music]

[brooding music continues]

You've grown up so fast.

I swear it was just yesterday
we brought you home.

You know how much
I love you, Eliza.

I'd never want that to change.

-[Eliza sobbing]
-[phone rings]

I don't wanna talk
to you right now.

[Jane] Is this Eliza?

Yes. Who's this?

This is Jane in Rusty
Schneider's office.

Um, hi.

I'm about to leave Rusty's
office for the last time,

and I may have forgotten a file

that you'd find
helpful on my old desk,

and I might forget to lock the
door behind me when I leave.

Understand?

Yes. Yes, I do.

I hope whatever's in this file

will lead you to some peace.

You take care, Eliza.

Thank you.

[tense music]

"Brooke Summers
wed Stefan Griffin

in Charlotte three years ago.

Mr. Griffin is
currently in the process

of opening a

Searching for

Checking nearby states.

Will speak to client about

[phone clicks]

[phone keys clacking]

[phone beeps]

[tense music continues]

[airplane engine roars]

[crickets chirping]

[Brooke sighs]

Stefan?

Hey, Stefan, are you up?

[Stefan] Brooke? I thought you
were flying to Austin tonight.

Yeah, I-I was, but
the connecting flight

got canceled, so I came home.

Can you please come down here?

We need to talk, it's serious.

[Cherry] Stefan, where
are you? Come back to bed.

Is someone here?

Look, it's just that I, uh...

[gasps] Brooke!

Oh my God. You didn't!

Cherry, you should go.
I'll call you later.

Is this some kind of joke?

Honey, I'm no joke.

Can you please leave?

What?

Look, baby, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean for
this to happen, okay?

You were gone and I was lonely,

and we were doing
lunch together,

and then one thing
led to another.

How could you do
this to me? What?

Just let me explain, okay?

I quit.

[Brooke groans]

Are you okay?

I'm pregnant with Dane's child,

and this changes everything!

[tense music]

[dramatic music]

Are you sure? Did
you see a doctor?

I-I have to get away from here.

I have to get away from you!

Meaning?

I'm gonna tell Dane
the truth and just

let the chips fall
where they may.

I'm leaving you, Stefan.

Do you think I'll allow that

after all this riding on
this prenup settlement?

Maybe this baby is
actually for the best?

What?

[Stefan] I mean, a divorce
settlement is one thing,

but this kid will
tie you to that man

for the rest of his life.

That could be worth millions.

What is wrong with
you? Are you insane?

How did I get myself in this
mess in the first place?

[Brooke sighs]

Oh, it's too late, Brooke.

We're in too deep with our
plan. This is happening.

What are you gonna
do to stop me?

Do you really think
Dane's ex-wife

died by some "mugging-gone-
bad" outside a random bar?

What are you saying?

Gus works part-time at the bar

near where she was killed.

I had him follow
her when you told me

she might cause trouble.

Hey.

[gun fires]

[Stefan] Gus knew that she
had met with a PI,

so he bought a burner phone

and sent her a text
message posing as the PI.

He said he had shocking
information about you

and that she should meet
him at the parking lot

down the street from
the Green Lizard bar.

No.

Yeah, Gus took a
little break from work

when he knew she was
supposed to arrive.

He followed her
and he killed her,

took her purse and made
it look like a robbery,

all so that we could eventually

have everything we ever wanted.

You had Gus murder her?

I-- [gasping]

I couldn't let her destroy
everything we'd set in motion.

It was the only option.

[Brooke whimpers]

You're not going anywhere

until I get the
money I worked for.

We're still in this together.

If I go down, you go down.

The police will never believe

you weren't part
of this whole plan.

You'll have that
baby behind bars.

[tense music]

She's still not back yet.
Should I go looking for her?

I have been calling her nonstop.

Star doesn't know
what's going on either,

but Eliza texted
her and told her

she's going out
of town for a bit.

I hope she's all right.

And I hope we haven't lost her.

[Carly] I'll find her.
I'll call you later.

Thanks.

[brooding music continues]

[phone beeps]

[phone keys clacking]

[phone beeps]

[birds chirping]

[ominous music]

Cheer up, honey. You're
carrying our golden ticket now.

We're going to be set for life.

Please don't make
me do this, Stefan.

I-I-It's not too late!

You should call the
old man this morning.

Tell him how much you love him

and how excited you are
about the new bundle of joy.

Maybe ask for some more money

so you can buy some
things for the baby.

Yeah, yeah, I need
more cash, ASAP.

And don't even think
about double-crossing me.

You know what? Call him now.

I want to listen
on speaker phone.

[tense music]

[Brooke sighs]

[phone clicks]

[phone keys clacking]

[phone rings]

Hey, sweetheart. You in Austin?

Hi. Yeah, Austin, yeah.

You okay? You sound strange.

No, I-I'm fine.

It was just a long, busy flight.

Well, I hope you're
taking care of yourself.

I am. Um, I love you.

I love you too. I can't
wait for you to come home.

Hey, um, I was wondering, is
there any way that you could

transfer some money
into our shared account?

Um, I know it's early
in the pregnancy,

I just, I just
saw some furniture

that I might wanna
get for the nursery.

Honey, of course.

Just call Dan in accounting
and tell him what you need.

Actually, ask for a little
extra so you have access

to whatever you need
for you and the baby.

And I have some
news about Eliza.

Oh? What, what is it?

She knows Carly is
her birth mother.

Oh. How did she take it?

I thought, I thought
you guys decided

to wait a little bit
longer to tell her.

Yeah, we didn't tell
her. She just overheard.

She stormed out of the house,

and then we found
out she left town.

Listen, honey, I'm about
to head into a meeting.

Can I call you later?

Um, yeah, yeah, I-I'll
talk to you later.

[Dane] Okay, that sounds
great. I love you, sweetheart.

I love you too.

[phone disconnects]

See? That wasn't
so hard, was it?

I have to go check and
see what the contractor

finished yesterday at the club.

Don't let me down, Brooke.

You know what's at stake.

[Brooke whimpers]

[brooding music]

[brooding music continues]

Star, hon, thank you so
much for meeting with me.

Of course. I'm just as worried
about Eliza as you are.

I just wish I knew
where she was.

Well, when she
texted me last night,

the only thing she said was
that she was going out of town.

Star, do you know something?

[sighs] I know
where she is, yeah.

What? How?

I thought you said
she didn't tell you!

Well, she didn't,
but about a year ago,

we set up trackers in
each other's phones.

The idea is when
we go out to party,

one is always able to find
the other, for safety reasons.

Well, where is she?

Well, I've been tracking her
location since last night,

and she went to Charlotte.

Charlotte? What's there?

I don't know, but she
was at a hotel there.

And now it looks like
she's at a nightclub there?

I need you to send
me that address.

I need to fly to Charlotte
as soon as I can,

and I need you to continue
to track Eliza for me.

[engine rumbling]

[brooding music]

[phone clicks]

[brooding music continues]

[brooding music continues]

Here we go.

[tense music]

[brooding music]

[Eliza sighs]

[brooding music continues]

[door closes]

Hello? Is anybody here?

[ominous music]

[Brooke sighs]

Dane, I-I have some
things to tell you

which are gonna be
really hard to hear,

but you deserve
to know the truth.

And once you hear them,

you might never wanna
see me again. [sniffs]

[Stefan]
Hi. Can I help you?

Um, hi. Are you Stefan?

The one and only.

Awesome.

I recently read an interview

on social media
about the new place.

I was wondering if I
could get some information

on renting it out
for a private event.

It's for my friend's
25th birthday

and it would just be
the perfect venue.

I'd be happy to talk
to you about it.

We don't open for
a few weeks though.

Oh, that's okay.

It's, um, it's not for a
few more months anyway.

Let me show you the rates.

I just hope one day you can
forgive me. I'm so sorry.

[Brooke sniffs]

[Brooke sighs]

[Stefan]
These are the options.

There's also a 10%
discount if you

pay the whole fee up
front before the event.

Uh, that's great! [chuckles]

So, are you from around here?

Few years now.

Hmm.

[suspenseful music]

If you'd like to come
with me downstairs,

there's a awesome space

that would be perfect
for your party.

[chuckles] Um...

[Stefan] It's very unique.

You won't find it
anywhere else in the city.

Okay, lead the way then!

[suspenseful music continues]

Ladies first.

[Eliza chuckles]

[Eliza sighs]

I think you will find this place

more than suitable for
you and your guests.

I like it already.

Just take a right here.

It's just right down here.

Here we go. You're
going to love it.

-[shoves]
-Hey!

Hey, what the hell
are you doing?

I'm only going to ask this once.

Why are you here, Eliza?

So you know who I am?

You're damn right I do.

Are you married to Brooke?

How did you figure all this out?

My mom hired a PI
before she died.

Whatever you and
Brooke have going on,

you're not gonna
get away with it!

My dad--

Played right into our hands.

But you see, Eliza,
it's a shame, you know?

Because you're never
going to leave here alive.

But thank you, because now

I can get more cash
from your dear, old dad.

[dramatic music]

Wait, wait, let me
out, let me out!

Wait! Let me out!

Help! Help!

Open the door! Please,
Stefan, you can't do this!

[knocking]

Help, please! Please let me out!

[phone beeps]

Help!

[tense music]

[phone dings]

[tense music continues]

Please! Please help!

[distant sirens]

[Star] Carly? Where are you?

[Carly]
Hey, Star. I'm in Charlotte.

I barely made that
flight, but I did it.

Where is Eliza now?

She's still at that nightclub.

I mean, online, it says
it's not even open yet,

so what is she doing there?

Very good question.

Okay, I got the address.
I'm headed there now.

[Star] Okay.

[suspenseful music]

[suspenseful music continues]

Okay, okay.

[eerie music]

[phone dings]

[Brooke] Dane, I have some
things to tell you that

are gonna be hard to hear,

but you deserve
to know the truth.

And after you hear them, you
might never wanna see me again.

[brooding music]

And that's how I let
my husband, Stefan,

talk me into tricking
you into marrying me,

and eventually, us divorcing

so I could get a
large settlement.

I'm so sorry. I'm so ashamed.

You've been nothing
but wonderful to me.

Which is why by the
time you watch this,

I will have recorded
Stefan's confession

into being behind the
killing of Maureen.

And then after
that, I'll move away

and try to find a fresh
start in our child.

[whimpers] I know
it's a lot to ask,

but I hope one day
you can forgive me.

[phone rings]

[Brooke voicemail] Hi, it's
Brooke. Just leave me a message.

-[phone beeps]
-Brooke, it's me.

Call me! Please!

Stefan, are you here?

[Brooke gasps]

[Stefan]
We have an issue. A big one!

Why, what's happening?

[Stefan] I've got
Eliza locked up

downstairs in the storage room.

-Yeah.
-What?

Yeah, unfortunately for
her, she tied me to you

and showed up here unexpectedly.

Well, what are we gonna do?

[Stefan]
There's no other option,

so we're going to
hold her for ransom.

Then when we get the money,
we're going to kill her.

[ominous music]

[Brooke gasps]

We'll take video of
her for proof of life.

And you need to make sure

Daddy Dearest doesn't
call the cops!

[phone dings]

Who the hell is that?

It's Carly, it's, it's
Eliza's birth mom.

[Stefan]
What? Get outta here!

[Brooke] All right.

[tense music]

[Stefan] It's open!

[Carly] Hello? Hi.

How can I help you?

I'm looking for a young woman.

Her name is Eliza. I
think she might be here.

Help, somebody help!

Eliza, Eliza, it's Brooke.

-Brooke?
-Okay, I'm gonna

get you out of there, you
just need to be quiet, okay?

[Eliza] Brooke, what have you
and that psycho

done to my family?

I knew there was
something off with you

-the whole time!
-[Brooke] Eliza, stop!

Carly is upstairs.

-What?
-Okay?

And Stefan is gonna hurt her
if we don't do something.

Okay, okay, okay.

Okay?

Do you mind if I
show you a photo? Um.

Maybe she was here earlier?

Make it quick.

[phone beeps]

Nope.

[Carly] Are you positive you
haven't seen her?

Maybe she left her
phone by accident.

[Stefan] Sorry,
I can't help you.

We're not even open
for business yet.

As you can see, we're still
setting things up around here.

Um, when do you plan on opening
this space? It's amazing.

-[ominous music]
-[Stefan] In a few weeks.

[Carly] Well, I-I
can't wait to see it.

Um, we really need some
new venues around here,

for the young people, I mean.

[wrench clangs]

[Carly screams]

Eliza!

Aunt Carly!

-Are you okay?
-Yeah.

Oh my. I'm here, sweetheart.

[Eliza] Thank you, Brooke.

[Carly] Everything's
gonna be all right.

[gentle music]

[Eliza] Rebecca's in
a good mood today.

[Carly] You excited
to see your mommy?

[Dane] Yes, she is.

[Carly] Hi.

[Eliza] Aw, she's the cutest.

[Dane] That's
Daddy's little girl.

[gentle music continues]

[gentle music continues]

[Dane chuckles]

[Eliza] There she is.

Be nice, Eliza.

There's your mom.

Thank you so much for
letting me stop by.

You should be thanking my dad

for getting you out of prison
on parole in just a year.

Yes. Thank you, Dane.

I hope your family can
finally find some peace

now that Stefan
has been sentenced

and Gus caught and
on trial for murder.

How's she doing?

Oh, Rebecca is just fine.

Eliza's turned out to be
quite the doting big sister.

[Brooke]
Oh, I'm so glad. Can I hold her?

Yeah. Come on, baby.

[Brooke]
Come on, Rebecca.

Hi! Oh, hi!

Oh!

I know I can't make
up for what happened,

but I'm determined to
make a fresh start,

be the mom that she
really deserves.

I hope you mean it.

I swear, I do.

Thank you for taking
such good care of her.

Of course. I'm her dad.

We're all gonna look
out for her as a family.

And that includes you, Brooke.

You gonna join us? Carly's
put out an amazing spread.

[Brooke] Oh?

I'll make you a plate.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

I-I really, I can't tell you
how much this means to me.

Hi! Hi.

[Carly] Rebecca's always hungry.

[Dane] I think so too.

[Brooke] Hmm.
