Lake success. 40 years after it was first founded, this small midwestern town still lives up

to its logic of a lifetime.

We have Susie! I see this! Susie, hurry up!

Hey, okay! Mel, I have got two turnt vapors and a chem test tomorrow.

It's the paparennial prosperity as dude and Deccaran kins, the billion dollar pharmaceutical

business established by Peesto and Atkins.

It's found her and still it's CEO.

Wow, you look so old.

Would you expect, since we haven't seen him since you were a kid?

The bi-rumas of a terminal illness which has left him a recluse in Rich Haven, the family's massive mansion overlooking Lake Succes.

They can't just say he likes his privacy, they have to lie and say he's sick.

Last week we spoke to Decker Atkins, the devoted only daughter of the dying tycoon.

All I can say is I have assumed my father's duties at Decker Atkins, which as you know is also my name.

The company and I have so much in common.

It's a bond I've always shared with my father who's been grooming me to take over.

Decker's is only daughter.

What does that make me?

Come on, Susie.

You know those shows, they don't get the facts straight?

That's not what hurts.

My father's dying, Mel, and I find out on TV.

Like you said, it might not be true.

Then why didn't Decker just say that it wasn't?

You saw she avoided the question.

I try not to care, but you stole my father.

Shouldn't I talk to him before it's too late?

Of course she should, Susie.

Here, give it a try.

Maybe this time he'll take your call.

I'm not calling, Mel.

I'm going.

I'm going to go to the next flight back to Lake Success.

And so it goes into this idyllic small town where one very special family runs a billion dollar business.

Turn that trash off.

I'm calling something dark.

How do they know I'm on my way out?

They don't, and you're not.

Come on, you've always been honest with me.

Don't change on me now.

Am I going to pull through this or not?

Do I really need to tell you what you already know?

How you feeling, Father?

Well, I'm dying here, Decker.

How do you think I feel?

Well, you're looking better.

I look hard for you.

How's business?

That's what I came to tell you.

I've got some interesting news.

I've submitted Vital A for FDA approval.

You're going to test Vital A on humans?

I spent 25 years developing that drug.

I never got anywhere near where you are.

What kind of trick you got up your sleeve?

No trick. Just work.

You didn't name me Decker Atkins for nothing.

You should try to live up to the name.

How do you think, Doc?

Does my daughter deserve to run my business?

She seems to think so.

I know so.

I'm late for meeting.

I'll be back soon.

I love you, Father.

Bye, Decker.

Looks like I rate the silent treatment.

Well, Decker's tough.

After all, she's my daughter.

Well, I could never understand this.

Why is she a wife?

Well?

Soon.

He looks just off.

What does the doctor say?

My husband hasn't left that room all morning.

It's so close I can taste it.

Decker Atkins will finally run Decker Atkins.

According to the will, I just drew up for him.

That is indeed the case for you and your brother

who my doubt will waive his rights.

My brother couldn't run a fever, let alone a company.

I'll buy him out. He always needs money.

Diana, you startled me.

I beg your pardon, Decker. I didn't intend to.

I know. I'm just so upset about Father. My nerves are shot.

Well, all we can do is hope for the best.

Believe me, I do.

Well, I know you're here to see Father, so please go on in.

We were just leaving anyway.

See what I mean?

Diana Wesley is a spy.

She's the housekeeper, Decker.

Besides, she's been at Ridgehaven since before you were born.

I don't care. When he goes, so does she.

Do you remember the first day you came to Ridgehaven?

May 16th, 1960.

I brought along all my hours.

And he said, are you the Mr.

Zondiana Wesley? The children's doomed, I.

I was terrified.

Of America?

Of you.

I'm a here I was, a teenager from Oxfordshire.

Suddenly working in Lake Success.

I'm surprised I didn't flee the very first day.

No. Avoiding in his shoes, no way to solve it.

Then maybe you should contact Susie and Stu.

In 1960, you would not have saw that.

I don't mean to be important, and I just thought that maybe you'd like to see them.

After all these years, what gave you that idea?

Oh, I said, yeah, okay.

A family reunion around the dying man's bed, huh?

Please, sir.

Well, that's not going to happen.

Is there just fine where they are?

All right, then.

As you wish.

I suppose what you wish.

About Susie and Stu?

Yeah.

I'm afraid so.

I'd like nothing more than to see them come back here.

Don't move!

Get out! Get out!

Get out! Get out!

Get out! Get out!

Get out!

Get out! Get out!

No way, Susie. I won't go.

I'm not going back to Lake Success.

You don't want to see Dad.

He doesn't want to see me.

Or you, Susie, and I know you know it.

Stu, do you really believe he just doesn't care?

Last time I saw him, I was six years old.

What else should I believe?

Stu, listen.

I saw on TV that Dad's sick.

Sure he is.

Sick of us.

Look, he's still our father, and he still pays the bills.

That doesn't buy love.

At least not mine.

If he is sick, then I'm sorry.

But if he wanted us with him, he'd pick up the bill.

Like I said, he's still our father.

Listen, Stu, I can't force you.

I just want you here there with me.

Please.

And they say I'm stubborn.

So what time's our flight?

We're going to go.

Penny, for your thoughts.

It was more than that.

So are you.

Well, I thank you, Rowan.

Speaking of money, how should Dad do it?

I don't know.

Didn't see him today.

I'm sorry.

He was asleep when I went to work, and then I came straight here.

You're certainly taking things for granted, aren't we, Rowan?

Why should I worry? I'm his son.

You and two others.

Adam is a rehab. Stu is 16.

Besides, even if the old man does leave him some money,

there'll still be plenty for me.

Us.

Us. Me means us, Jude. You know that.

Maybe I do, but no one else does. Not your father and not your wife.

Oh, Judy, come on. Not again, huh?

In leg success, there are two sides of town.

Yours and mine, and the two never mix, at least not in marriage.

We're right here together.

Isn't that enough?

No. I want it legal, and I want it soon.

I'm sick of pretending we're strangers. Rowan, you're mine.

I want your whole family to know it.

You know, damn well, that's not an option.

If I divorce Corinne, I've got to pay alimony.

Why should I share all that money with her?

Well, whatever there is, you better get soon.

So I'm sick and tired of working for a living.

I don't plan to do it much longer.

What a coincidence. Neither do I.

God, your kid's sister is sure growing up.

Growing up and getting out.

Saving my money to send Jenny to college.

My only option was Secretarian School.

But working for Tucker Reed has been an education in itself.

I'll do what you say, baby.

I don't want to lose you.

And I don't want to sleep my way to the middle.

We're going all the way.

Where do you want to go?

Where do you want to go?

Mr. Parrish?

Mr. Parrish?

You went to Decoracans?

What did they say?

I said your dismissal was due to non-performance.

Non-performance? My record there was perfect.

I mean, I also declined to make a settlement.

I don't care about a settlement. I just want my job back.

17 years there. I mean something.

And where else can I go to work in this town?

A man's name means nothing if he's fired from Decoracans.

Come on, Hector, you really believe that?

You sure done a good job of brainwashing you?

Don't worry. I'm already thinking about our next step.

My only step is to take care of Tanya. She's 16. I've got to support her.

I wish I knew why. Why they would treat me this way?

I guess that's what you get for putting trust in a person.

Not a person.

Corporation.

There's a big difference between the two.

I know, Mr. Parrish.

But in the old man's day, we were all taken care of.

I could just talk to him. I'm sure he'd listen.

I'm sure he wouldn't.

Not with his family running into interference for him.

Maybe you're right, but I wish he knew.

I'd like to think someone there still has a heart.

Since you flew me first class, does that mean I can't complain?

It'd better.

Not that you have anything to complain about.

What, you're already regret being back at Lake Success?

I guess it won't be so harsh to see the old man.

And besides, I got some things to say that I want him to hear.

I assume no one minds if we all discuss business.

And you might as well put in some work today.

I told you, Decker, I had to go pick up the Porsche myself.

Pardon me. I didn't catch your name.

Judy, Grayson. Mr. Reed's assistant.

Pleasure, Miss Grayson. Welcome to Ridge Haven.

Sorry, I'm late. I've been sitting upstairs.

No one let me know that we were ready to eat.

Here, Corinne. Let me help you.

Thank you, Martin. I hope you're amazing.

The manners rub off on my husband.

Excuse me, Corinne, but can we please get started?

Now, about all this fall out of the media about father.

Now what?

I was just asking Rowan if he felt his father should be here.

I mean, even though he is ill, Mr. Atkins is still in charge of the company.

So thoughtful of you to express your concern.

But I think I'm fully capable of carrying out my father's wishes.

Now, is there anything else or can I continue?

I'm not sure.

Thanks, Martin.

Wow. This is even bigger than I remembered.

At least you remember it.

Stewie, all of a sudden, I am incredibly nervous.

After dragging me all the way here, come on. Let's go in.

Well, that's settled. If the press contacts any of us, we all know what to say.

Refer all reporters to you.

Isn't that the best way to present a unified front?

What about your sister and brother?

You know, Susie and Stu.

I don't see what they have to do with all this.

I don't know. It's just that they're his children, too.

Maybe I could call and let them know.

Those two haven't been here since they were in diapers.

What could they possibly know that would interest the press?

They won't talk anyway. After what happened with their mother, they'd be too ashamed.

What did happen with their mother? Do we even know?

Do we even care? This isn't important and we're way off the subject.

So back to what I was saying before.

I beg your pardon.

Is it father? What's happened?

It's all right. He's holding fast.

We have some guests you might wish to greet.

At this hour, who?

Hi, everybody.

So, I guess this is kind of a family reunion?

Susie?

And Stu?

Dad, I am so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

I'm so glad to see you.

sterereams empty on desk.

They're room break.

They're waiting for you.

We need to chase something.

There's a tomato in this

brown, if they want a smokechant.

They're looking to do it.

It's 6 or 8.

I work so much...

Oh.

If they attend,

Thank you.

Hi there.

If I didn't know better, I'd swear I'd just heard my second wife.

Well, you know what they say. Like mother like daughter.

I hope not, Suzy Atkins. You're sick more than mine.

Oh, so you'd think it'd be better if she was more like you.

Peace taught the fourth. My name's Aixon.

I don't know what do I owe this unexpected visit.

Suzy saw on TV that you were sick. Don't ask me why, but she still cares.

We both do.

Suzy was just scared to show it dead.

Well, I don't blame her.

You think someone ogher and heartless and cruel.

Let me tell you something.

When your mother, um, when she went away, the sight of both of you was, uh,

not to be more than I could bear, and I thought, well, it would be better if you left like success.

Yeah, better for you. Not us.

That's the way you see it.

I don't agree.

The two of you don't know what this town is really like.

Mr. Atkins, my name is Hector Torres.

I had to see you.

I'll call security.

I'm sorry about this, sir, but I had no choice.

They won't put my calls through. I had no choice.

Help me, sir. Help me get my job back.

I don't know anything about this.

I know, sir. That's why I'm here.

You never would have done this to one of your workers, and I'm getting scared of what they might do next.

There. There he is.

Forgive me, sir. I got it. I met no harm.

Call for backup. Please, sir. Give me my job back. I'll do anything you want.

I am sorry, father. Who was that?

It looks like we're going to need more security.

Does this sort of stuff happen a lot around here?

Not mind. I didn't know.

Well, I don't know who he was, but I've heard the old story.

People think they're entitled to less work and more pay.

I didn't seem to be with that guy. I was saying.

Well, that's what he meant. Trust me. I know.

I think we've had enough excitement for one night.

Would you excuse us, please? He needs to sleep.

Oh, but we just got here. Can't we stay just a few minutes longer?

I'm sorry.

That's okay.

We'll see him tomorrow.

We will.

Of course, too.

Good night, Addie.

It's good to be home.

Well, after ignoring your existence for all these years,

they certainly showed up at an opportune time.

Oh, what are you driving at?

Nothing.

I just find it interesting that they're suddenly here.

Well, it is interesting, Decker, if that's how you say it.

On the other hand, maybe just maybe their motives are pure.

Sure. Just like their mothers.

Night, Father. Sleep well.

Do you need anything before I retire for the night?

No.

Yes. Get me that soul bono lawyer over in town with Henry Fleming.

You don't want Tucker Reed?

No, Reed and I lips Henry Fleming.

I may be down, but I'm not out, not yet.

I'll be down rough when I die until I make some changes are in here.

I've tried everything, Henry, but this tour has claims going nowhere fast.

And I take a Tucker Reed refuses to settle.

Can't even get him to return my phone calls.

I don't blame the guy. He's a corporate guard dog.

Truth is, Decker Atkins just doesn't care.

Well, I could have told you that when you took on this case.

Although I've never had any direct dealings with him in the past.

Hey, you did all you could.

Based on what I knew, I don't think I heard the entire story.

Something tells me Hector Torres knows more than he's saying.

Well, you're his attorney. You're on his side. Why would he keep secrets from you?

My client's a company man. You wouldn't say anything to jeopardize his job.

They already fired him.

And he's still too scared to tell me.

So now he's in jail for breaking into rich haven.

And I'm on my way to paying him out.

That must be him now. Who else would call this lady?

Hello? Yes, this is Henry Fleming.

Who?

Yes.

Ah, yes, I will.

All right then. Goodbye.

Henry, is everything all right?

I have no idea.

All I know is that was rich haven calling.

Oh, man, Atkins wants to see me.

You're a person.

Jenny?

Jenny Grayson?

I know you can hear me. Get back here.

Chill out, Louie. I'm on my way.

Table three still hasn't ordered. I already told you they don't want food. They want my phone number.

You say that about every guy that walks in here?

I say that because most times it's true.

Jenny, I mean it.

So tell me, Tonya Torres, the straight A student, what part of the country contains the richest men?

Anywhere but here, unless his name that gets.

That's it, Jenny. This time you're fired.

You already fired me, Tonya.

Hey, Jenny, this time you're fired.

You already fired me twice tonight.

Hi, I'm Jenny, your friendly helper at Burger Heaven.

Yeah, she's here. Hold on, I'll get her.

Who's on the phone?

The police.

For you.

Where's my daughter? Is Tonya okay?

Tonya's fine.

Death sergeant called her and she called me. So she's not with you?

She wanted to be on the matter staying at home.

Thank you for that.

I'm shamed enough already.

But to have her see me here, the more lucky old man actors decline their press charges,

otherwise you'd be a lot more than ashamed. I don't know what happened.

I just had to see him.

The old man was my only hope.

But there's something I want to tell me.

Something that has to do with this case?

I don't think so.

I don't know.

Sounds to me like two different answers.

Please, please, Mr. Parish, I just want my job back.

Well, if and when you feel like talking, I want you to know I'm ready to listen.

Is this an overactive? We will fight until we win.

There's something Counselor, when I'm with you, I almost believe it.

Dad! Dad!

Oh, Tonya, I don't know what I was thinking. I'm sorry.

It's all right, Dad. I understand.

Now where are we going?

I was checking out the East Wing.

Wait, I remember this.

No, I don't.

You know, Stu, whatever Dad did to us, at least we had each other.

After Mom left, he was all alone.

Hold it.

This looks familiar.

Come on.

I'm sorry.

I feel like I walked into King Tut's tomb.

This is it, Stu.

This was a room.

Who? Mom?

You don't remember the round bed with the white canopy?

Come on, Stu. I was two years old.

This was her dressing table.

Where she used to brush my hair every night before I went to bed.

It's your favorite perfume.

It's as strong as it always was.

Mom, sure wasn't subtle. I had to say that.

I wonder if she ever loved us.

They're so transparent.

It's clear why they're here.

Well, it won't fool Father. He's onto them, I can tell.

I don't see what there is to be onto.

What does seem like regular kids?

You're so nighting, Father.

Don't you see what they're doing?

They want a fat trust fund for after Father's gone.

Well, if it's up to me, they won't get a cent.

I'll say this for you, Dicker.

You are always-owned business.

I think, you, Martin. What a sweet thing to say.

Yo, Suzy, check this out.

Stu, that's Mom's scrapbook. Leave it alone.

Why?

Come on, Suzy. You know all this stuff.

Why can't I know about my own mom?

Honey Potts Atkins.

Her real name was Harriet, but everybody called her honey.

That was her stage name. Honey Potts.

That's her as a kid and her family's washed up.

They were so poor they didn't have plumbing.

God, look at that.

This rod in real of 1966.

It's her as a showgirl in Las Vegas.

They made a lead dancer after one week at work.

I can see why.

Checking out Mom's a babe.

That's me.

I wish I wrote something.

Like mother, like daughter.

It's just like I told Dad today.

The man in my life.

She went dad side by side.

How healthy he looks.

Honey Ditch's husband.

Next showgirl takes some money and runs.

Atkins opts for early retirement.

Devastated tycoon recluse in which haven't.

This doesn't make sense.

I mean mom dumps dad, but her scrapbooks go on.

Who put this stuff in a mentor she left?

Who do you think?

The Mr. ordered this room kept exactly as your mother left it.

So he still loves Mom.

And that's why you won't discuss her.

She broke his heart.

What more is there to say?

I'm not sure.

Are you sure you don't mind taking Tonya back to work?

Of course not Hector. It's on my way.

All right then.

You take care Tonya. I'll see you at home.

Okay dad.

Thanks again Mr. Parrish.

For everything. Anytime Hector.

I wish I could do more.

Damn.

No!

You know what caused the accident?

It's hard to tell with the shape it's in.

You plan of a wife or a family?

Only a daughter.

She just turned 16.

I'd better give her a call for some report.

How do you say?

If you don't mind.

Be my guest.

Sure isn't something I look forward to.

Yeah.

Decker?

Susie. What a surprise.

I hope I'm not disturbing you.

Of course not. Come on in.

Wow.

This is great.

I hired one of those New York decorators.

I need the proper atmosphere to do such high stress work.

So, what can I do for you? Me? Nothing.

I was just on my way to the clinic so I thought I'd stop off and see Dad's company.

The clinic? Why the clinic?

To Seattle?

I didn't know until I got here that he's in rehab.

For the third time I hastened to add, so I don't expect much.

I think he's hopeless.

Well, that's hard to believe.

But that's why I want to see him.

Anyway, I was hoping that maybe afterwards we could go out to lunch.

Lunch? With you?

That sounds so fun.

But I've got an FDA official in.

All the way from Washington.

I understand.

It's just the...well, resistors.

And I want to spend some time with you before I go back to school.

And you will, I promise.

Just consider this a rain check before everything.

They're right.

Hey!

Why did you fire Hector Torres?

How dare you barge into my office like this? Get security.

Now.

Come on, throw me out, but at least I'll know why.

My client didn't. And now he's dead.

We need someone up here.

Hector Torres?

The employee you fired without any due cause?

For your information, I didn't fire anyone.

Well, somebody did. And I want to know why.

Isn't all that between you and your client?

He wouldn't tell me.

For some reason, he was too scared.

Seems the only one he trusts around here was your old man.

And was the last time that bastard helped anybody.

Don't you talk like that about father?

I'll talk about him any way that I want.

It's about time someone in Lake Success did.

This isn't over. Not even close.

I won't let you forget Hector Torres.

Well, this seems to happen a lot around here.

See what I go through running this place?

Lastly, I'd be quick to Suzanne Atkins, my youngest daughter,

and P. Stuart Atkins IV, my youngest son.

The sum of two million dollars each to be held in trust

until their 25th birthdays.

Wow.

Oh, excuse me, Mr. Reed.

It's just that so much money.

Well, from the Atkins fortune, that's a mere drop in a bucket.

If he'd left them any less, they'd contest his will.

Please go on.

With Tucker Reed Esquire as Soul Trustee.

This sum does not derive from my Decker Atkins holdings

and is wholly exempt from company business.

Does that mean they get it no matter what happens?

Very good, Miss Grayson. You're learning fast.

So, in a way, Susie and Stu are more financially secure

than Decker, Willan, or Adam.

In a way.

But, on the other hand,

the current value of our client's company

is estimated at two billion dollars.

Does that make you happy?

Just more confused.

But if I have to type it, I may as well understand it.

And I wonder what it's like to have so much money.

I'm sure glad I don't.

Life is so much simpler, don't you think?

I think, Miss Grayson, that we've gotten off the subject.

Of course. I'm sorry.

And, by the way, you were gone for two hours at lunchtime today.

I know. My dentist kept me waiting for 45 minutes.

That's before he began to drill.

I say, well, then I suggest you schedule all future fillings

for after office hours.

All right, Mr. Reed.

I will.

I don't believe it. Susie.

Oh, it's great to see you.

It's been a long, long time, you know.

And I've been here for most of you.

I didn't know, Adam.

If I had, I'd have come sooner.

It's better that he didn't.

If I had, I'd have come sooner.

It's better that he didn't.

If I had, I'd have to see the family and fall off the way.

Even with the sister who idolized you.

Especially with her.

What happened?

Why?

Well, if I knew why, I wouldn't still be here.

But this place feels a lot better than home.

No, you don't really mean that.

Oh, yes, I do.

Lake Success is a beautiful place.

I wouldn't know anybody who would argue with that.

But it's like they say, you know,

beauty is only skin deep.

And around here, the uglyness is just underneath.

And take it you're talking about our family?

Why else do you think I end up here?

Here they protect me from Rowan and Decker.

The only thing that does that,

when I'm out, is getting high.

Listen, Susie.

I don't know why you're back.

But I want you to go.

I want you to leave town before it's too late.

Adam, you know why I'm here.

Dad's sick.

He's dying.

Before it's over, you ought to see him.

In case you didn't notice, this isn't a hotel.

I can't just walk out.

Yes, you can't. I already asked.

If I sign you out, they let you leave.

I don't think Dad'd be such a smart idea.

Adam, I know how you feel.

But he's still your father.

Just don't take a stand now that you'll regret later.

Mr. Atkins, it's been an honor.

Thanks, Fleming.

Mm-mm.

Hello, Pat.

Adam, all of your back.

Just now that I'm day past, thanks to Susie.

She wanted to make sure I got here to see.

Well, all the way things are going.

It's a good thing she did.

So, um...

We were always different.

I'm decoring wrong.

Just for that reason alone, I should have paid more attention.

It's not your fault. I never fit in.

Well, look what you had to go through because of it.

I know it's not my fault, but I could have helped.

Your life was your company. I always knew that.

Knowing and forgiving are two different things.

Listen, whatever happens, don't let Rowan and Decker bully you, okay?

And will you try to take care of Susie and Stu?

They couldn't need you.

No, it needs me, Pat.

I promise.

You'll pop, I promise.

One nice question.

And please, you gotta tell the truth.

Do you love me?

I'm laying here, dying at my own son's house to ask.

I don't know what else to say. I'm... I'm sorry.

Right.

So, Adam sounds like he's pretty cool.

Yeah, I just Toucito style.

He has no self-esteem.

Stu.

Not like this other guy I saw today.

What other guy?

Some lawyer in town.

I don't know his name.

He barched into Deckard's office.

He made this big scene.

And you should have heard the way he talked about Dad.

Excuse me?

Diana, what is it?

His dad?

It's time.

Honey.

Where's my honey girl?

Oh, you hated her guts, didn't you, Deckard?

You were so jealous you wanted me all of yourself.

Father, you don't mean that.

Of course he doesn't.

My sudden I do, he is naked in a grass.

I think I don't know where you spend your work days.

Poor man's ass mind.

Speak for yourself, he makes perfect sense to me.

Damn right, I do.

I still got the power to, whether you like it or not.

I can keep right on the wheel doing it after I'm gone.

Don't believe that?

Deckard, wait and see.

You're not the only lawyer in Lake's success.

Oh, it looks like the funds just getting started.

Too bad I'm not going to be around and enjoy it.

Come on, Dad, don't talk like that.

We love you.

We always have.

I know you too.

That's why I did one of it.

I'm sorry, I don't understand.

You will.

I'm so old, eh?

Knock him dead, kiddo.

I could use the company.

LAUGHTER

Get the money, come on in.

Don't do that.

Excuse me?

I'm sorry, it's just, you look familiar.

I know Decker Atkins's office. You were there. I remember now.

So, uh, you work for her, huh?

That must be fun. I mean, I've run into witches before, but Decker Atkins is in a class by herself.

I don't work for her. She's not my boss. She's my sister.

Wait a minute. You're Susie Atkins?

I didn't know. I'm... I'm sorry.

Well, I tell you, are you hated him?

What do you mean I never said that?

Why did you break? Are we standing right there? When was the last time that bastard ever helped anybody?

I don't believe it. I wasn't for work.

And insult for insult. And don't you dare smile. It's not at all funny.

It's also not that simple. You don't understand why.

No, you don't understand.

My father died last night, okay? I don't need this.

Besides, you've already got some big case against his company. Why don't you just let that keep you busy and leave me alone?

Let's hear it, Henry. Let's hear what transpired with you and the late Mr. Atkins.

Well, it's like I told you we did some business before we died.

Just you two.

Hmm.

And it must have been something. If I really believed it, I'd retire right now.

You mind, Tony? I'm really racing the clock here.

My God, you really aren't working for that.

Not them. Him. And it isn't at all like what you must think.

Tell me, Tucker, what did he mean? What was all that talk about having the power?

Who knows? The old man was dying. He was delirious.

Only at times. Maybe back to his old hateful self.

Well, that's over. It's my time at last.

The Donut Caron Black Silk is better. And bring it up a little. I am warning my father. Not my kneecaps.

But ma'am, at our fitting, last month, you specifically requested that...

I have a press conference in two hours. Have it altered by then? No excuses.

And I don't want you blabbing about how long we've been fitting for this funeral.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

As we were saying, it is your time now. You can do whatever you want.

Well, the first thing I want is for you to fire that girl.

What girl?

You know that cheap little townie that works in your office.

Judy Grace and what for?

She's after Rowan. I can tell.

And since he can't keep his trousers up, the last thing we need now is a family scandal.

Come on, Decker. She's only a secretary. Besides, she works like a dog.

Funny. She doesn't look like one. Fire her tucker. End of discussion.

Decker, I hope I'm not intruding, but I really need to talk.

Look, it's obvious we were never one big happy family, but now the dad's gone.

I think we should try to be closer. I mean, I know it won't happen overnight, but that doesn't mean it won't ever happen.

How much do you want? Excuse me?

You heard me, Susie. How much do you want?

Oh, don't play dumb for my sake. I've never been fooled. I've been onto your strategy right from the start.

Decker, I don't skip the sisterly act. Let's just get down to business.

How much will it take for the two of you to get lost?

You sound like you hate me. Hate you.

Don't fly to yourself, Susie. You're not that important.

Will two million dollars be sufficient?

Decker, we're sisters. And I'm not for sale.

Three million? It's my final offer.

If that's not enough, I'll see you in court.

Martin? I'm not sure disturbing you.

Of course not, Corinne. Come in.

All these years, and I've never seen your lab. Is this where you make all those marvelous discoveries?

Oh, well, I have a full staff of research scientists. We all work together on company business.

Speaking of business, I was just wondering... Actually, I wasn't wondering. It's why I came to see you.

Martin, I want to have a child.

Congratulations. I wasn't aware your condition had changed.

It hasn't. Isn't there something you could try on me? Some new drug you're still researching?

If we were, I could hardly prescribe it to you. And since we're not, I strongly urge you to see a doctor.

I already have lots of doctors. They all say the same thing. Childbirth could be fatal. But I don't care. I still want to try.

I know you don't understand how I feel. You're wrong. I do. I want children.

Unfortunately, my wife doesn't.

Maybe one day she'll change her mind. I think motherhood would be good for Decker.

Corinne, I'm not your physician, so I can't advise you. And ultimately, the decision is yours.

But since this does involve your husband, I think you ought to discuss it with him.

I want to, but Rowan's just devastated by his father's death. I can't even get him away from the office.

He's just burying his grief in his work.

Come on, Judy, please. I can't stand it, baby.

You can throw yourself, Rowan. You don't have a choice. Don't call me baby. That's not my name.

Well, what about it?

I told you. The funeral service is for family only.

When I'm your wife, I will be family. Meanwhile, we can wise up Corinne so she gets a clue and files for divorce.

Dreamage. She'll never divorce me. I couldn't afford it if she did.

What about all your inheritance?

I told you. I don't want to share it.

Not even with me?

Only with you.

Just make sure you don't forget it.

Hey.

You'll be a good boy and screwed up the bad door. I don't want Jenny to know you were here.

Goodbye, Rowan. I'll see you at the funeral service.

Judy, I don't hide me. What are you doing home in the middle of the day?

I can ask you the same question.

Cutting school for the fourth time this month? I think that's any way to get into college.

I need school. All I want is to snag a rich guy.

Just like you did.

What did I tell you?

All right. I'm sorry. What did I tell you?

Knowledge is power.

Knowledge is power.

That's right. And without money, it's our only weapon.

Well, we're only other weapons.

Jenny, you know why I'm doing this, don't you?

You have too much potential to end up like me.

What's wrong with you? Nothing. $50 million couldn't fix.

So you're gonna marry Rowan Atkins?

Really, Judy?

Only if necessary. He makes me sick.

Bitch.

So, you find what you're looking for?

I don't know what I'm looking for.

Police report says it happened by accident. All I can say is it makes me wonder.

Sounds to me like you wonder too much.

Maybe this time there's less than meets the eye, huh?

Maybe.

It still makes me wonder.

Waitress?

Waitress?

Hello, ma'am. How may I help you?

By bringing my meal sometime before Christmas.

I ordered it over 35 minutes ago.

I'm really sorry. I'll see what I can do.

Tonya, what are you doing there?

What do you think?

But your dad, you know.

It's later today.

My shirt can't afford a mis-shift.

Anyway, I have to keep working. If I just sit around, I'll lose my mind.

Someone just had a table 12. That's your station. I'll take care of the counter.

Hi, I'm Jenny, your friendly helper at Burger Heaven.

No way. I don't believe it.

I don't believe it. They make you say that to work in this place.

Are you here to eat or just to harass me?

Just wanted a burger.

Unless there's another specialty of the house.

Tonya will be your waitress today. She takes care of the creep suit coming here.

It's a perfect fit. Thank you for bringing the tailor up here.

Where did you find this dress anyway?

As a matter of fact, it belonged to your mother.

You know, she should be here at this funeral.

And she should be wearing this dress. That may be.

But it looks very well on you.

You know, Susie, I have been here since before you were born.

And I'm still an outsider.

Oh, Diana, don't say that. You've always been a part of this family.

To you, perhaps. To others? I think they'd be happy to see me go.

Well, it's not gonna happen. I won't allow it.

I'm not gonna be here.

I'm not gonna be here.

I'm not gonna be here.

Well, it's not gonna happen. I won't allow it.

That's what I want to tell you. Neither will I.

I won't leave you or still, like my mother did.

That wasn't my point tonight, I wish to judge.

Rest assured that I will be here for as long as you need me.

Diana, thank you for that.

For this. For everything.

Know something, Tanya. This is great.

The best and like success, they say.

You lived here long?

All my life. But I'm moving soon.

Really? Why?

Money troubles. My father just died.

Seriously?

So did my...

If that's really true, you don't look very sorry.

About my old man? Hardly knew him.

And what I did know, I didn't much like.

And I guess he wasn't so bad though, but before that he kept us away at school, so me and my sisters stuck together.

We were all each other had, you know.

Yeah, that's how it was with me and my dad.

Wait a minute. Your father just died?

I know who you are.

Do me a favor, Tanya. Don't pass it on.

Look on your face makes me feel like a freak.

Look, I'm sorry, it's just my dad worked to deck your act against all my life.

It didn't work out and I just feel sort of weird being around you right now.

I hope you understand.

Sure.

Oh my God.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Looks like that loser at Table 12 is leaving.

He was nice and he wasn't a loser.

Take it from me. That guy is from nothing.

I hope he didn't stiff you and not pay for dinner.

Yes?

Good afternoon. I'm here for the funeral service.

Who's that?

I'll handle this Charles.

It's all right.

Why are you here?

To pay my last respects to Mr. Atkins.

Where should I put this?

Put it back on. You're leaving right now.

My brother already has a wife.

So we both know what that makes you.

Oh. Who told you?

You're about you and Rowan?

You're not the first town he's taken up with.

And I know his type.

Cheap, vulgar, flashy and conniving.

Well, in case you don't know it, Rowan's crazy about me, which means Corinne's days are numbered.

I'll be family sooner than you think.

You actually think Rowan will marry you.

Oh, I don't think.

I know. And so does he.

There he is now. See for yourself.

Rowan?

Rowan?

Would you please tell your sister that I was invited to the funeral?

It's all right. She knows all about us.

I'm sorry, Miss Grayson.

The funeral service is for family only.

What? Rowan?

I think it's best if you leave right now.

I don't believe this. You want me to leave? You heard him out.

Get out before I throw you out.

You just did.

We'll see who comes crawling back.

Congratulations, Rowan.

You're starting to sound like the man of the family.

Thanks, Decker. So are you.

Today, we mourn a singular man.

Peace to it at use the third.

Devoted husband of first wife, Elizabeth Decker Atkins.

And second wife, Harriet Honeypotts Atkins.

Loving father of Rowan, Decker, and Adam Atkins.

And last, but by no means least, Suzanne Atkins

and Pease Stewart Atkins the fourth.

Known to you as Susie and Stu.

Barely I say unto you,

he that loveth his life shall lose it.

And he that hated his life in this world

shall keep it unto life eternal.

For no man's life is lived without meaning.

And we must all, in times of trouble, turn to our maker.

Beque escattent pake, hactor torres.

For now and forever, Pease Stewart Atkins will have his family,

who will cherish his memory and find strength in each other.

This, of course, is his greatest legacy.

A unified family with the gift of love.

Who's that? He's here for Diana. What's going on?

I know that guy, Henry Fleming.

He's got a tiny office in town, pro boner work,

the hand of mouth types.

Mike Endolance is Mrs. Goldman.

Don't call me that.

I was born Decker Atkins and that's still my name.

Decker Atkins.

After years of suing your company, we finally meet in person.

Is that why you're crashing my father's funeral?

I wouldn't do that. I'm here as a guest.

Should we tell her why I was invited?

I believe she'd want to know.

What are you two talking about?

We're talking people about a last will in Testament.

The one your father drafted on the last day of his life.

Anyone like to know what it says?

I don't believe it.

I don't believe it.

I don't believe it.

I do not believe that father wrote a new will on the same day that he died.

Neither did I. What he hired me to do it.

That's impossible.

Excuse me, Mr. Fleming. I wasn't aware you represented my father.

I didn't. Never met him until that last day.

I see. So you've never done any legal work for father,

and then he just hires you to write a new will.

He said he didn't trust his present lawyer. That's outrageous.

The man's been my client since I passed the bar.

Now you come in here and disrupt his funeral, claiming to possess some secret document.

It's no secret. We can watch it whenever you want.

What? What do you mean what?

All this paperwork's just notarized proof.

The actual will is in my vault.

Recorded on video cassette. What? He left it on tape?

You've got to be kidding.

I thought perhaps we could all watch it together.

I am busy this evening, house tomorrow night.

Don't be coy, counselor. Obviously we are available.

Fine. I'll meet you here at 8 p.m.

My sympathies to you all.

A video, Will. Why didn't I know about this?

Why didn't you know about this?

That's a moot point. There is no way on earth that this alleged will is bound.

Indeed there is. I was a witness.

I should have known you'd be behind this, bullying and deceiving a helpless old man.

When in his life was the mister ever helpless.

He arranged it himself and then summoned me.

I was just present to watch him on camera.

I do so look forward to his video debut.

Until then, good day.

If she's a sole witness, then it's our word against hers.

No it isn't Rowan. I was there too.

You were a witness?

Why don't you tell me?

I was going to. You've just been working so hard I didn't want to bother you.

All right, Corinne, I get the message.

And I suggest we all prepare examples of the old man's mental incompetence.

Mental incompetence?

You left it all to science. I'll admire him more than ever.

Now isn't that noble? Will you live in your lab when we run out of money?

For once I agree with Rowan.

I think we should all review father's behavior at the end of his life

and the mental decay that caused it.

I'll see you all tomorrow when we see this will.

I want Susie and Stu gone by then.

Hi.

Hi. Let me guess.

They're all still down there haggling away.

I met this girl, Tonya Torres.

Hmm.

What?

Nothing.

Actor Torres is the man who broke in here.

And after he left he was killed in an accident.

So that's her father. Tonya said he just died.

I don't know Susie, it seemed so unfair.

What?

Everything that's happened to her.

I mean, now she's got to drop out of school because her father had no money

when he died.

I don't know the guy's story.

Stu, he was trying to shake down decker Atkins.

I met his lawyer, that obnoxious Tony Parish.

Tonya's dad didn't act like a black manler.

He just seemed desperate to get his job back.

I'm sure he was by the time we saw him.

And I'm sure that was only part of the story.

I mean, I don't know.

Maybe Hector Torres was fired for no reason.

But that's something we'll never know for sure.

Why the hell hasn't he called me?

If I said wrong, I was going to the funeral.

Well, he still could have called to apologize.

Besides, I want to find out what happened at the service.

Maybe he's too sad to talk.

About his father, he hated his guts.

Listen to this.

Also in town for the private funeral service are Atkins two children from his second marriage.

Suzy Atkins and P. Stuart Atkins the fourth.

Now to his family is Stu.

Stu Atkins?

You can tell me about him.

There's nothing to tell. He's only 16.

So am I. But I won't be forever.

Neither will he.

Jenny, don't even joke about it.

Who's joking?

You are going to an Ivy League college.

If you fall in love later, fine.

And if I don't, you'll end up like me.

Which is not going to happen.

I can't stand it.

I'm calling Rich Haven.

Judy, I wouldn't. You will ever have to.

Hello, Rich Haven. Can't be Rowan Atkins.

Well, wake him up.

Jiddy Grayson's calling.

Jiddy, you're crazy.

I'm ringing his room.

Decker.

Try again Rowan.

No, I don't think I will.

What?

Do you know who this is?

Do I care?

Rowan, I don't know what's wrong with you,

but you better have an explanation.

I heard you today.

I heard you tell your sister I made you sick.

What? Rowan, I have to say those things around Jenny.

Otherwise she'll get the wrong idea and she'll try to...

How do you so, Guy, like you use me?

You don't want that. Neither do I.

I make you sick, Judy.

Well, here's your medicine, baby.

What is it? What happened?

He hung up on me.

He hung up on me.

Rowan Atkins did?

Why? He heard what I told you.

That he makes me sick.

He was here when you said it.

I told him to leave. Obviously he didn't.

Oh, how dare he eavesdrop on my private conversations.

What are you gonna do?

Nothing. He'll come back. He always has and he always will.

I don't know, Judy. He never hung up on you before.

He wouldn't have dared.

Maybe now's a good time for me to meet Stu Atkins.

Oh, just kidding.

God.

Who was that calling so late?

Wrong number.

And the switchboard put it through?

I'll tell Diana tomorrow this new private operator is just not.

Just not working out.

Corinne, I'm exhausted.

Maybe you should see Martin Goldman.

About what? Being tired from my father's funeral?

I'm serious, honey. We haven't made love in months.

I'm sure he has medicine to help.

I don't need help. I just need some rest.

Is that too much to ask?

Of course it isn't. But I can't have a baby without your help.

You can't have a baby because you might die if you do.

Why won't you believe that?

I don't care. I'll take that risk.

Well, I won't.

Corinne, I love you too much to lose you.

Why won't you believe it?

I want to.

I know how you feel.

I can't sleep myself.

Try counting sheep.

I can't. I'm too busy wondering how to help Tonya Torres.

Look, I'm sorry about what happened to her dad, okay?

But you cannot keep on talking.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

You're okay, but you cannot keep on harassing my family.

I'm not harassing them.

I'm harassing you.

Me?

Why?

I need your help, Suzy.

Your father's company kept a file on Hector Torres.

It's still standard policy for all employees.

I need that file.

I was hoping you could get it for me.

I'm sorry, but I don't see how I can.

Or why I should.

All right, then. I'll show you.

Get in.

What?

You heard me. Get in.

I don't know this neighborhood.

Where are we going?

The failed side of Lake Success.

I don't know this neighborhood.

Where are we going?

The failed side of Lake Success.

You wanted a reason?

Get up.

Yes?

It's okay. It's me.

Mr. Parsh.

I'm sorry, Tonya. I know it's late, but there's someone here I want you to meet.

This is...

I know who she is.

Can you spare a few minutes?

You're here. Come in.

Please sit down.

Can I get you something?

No. No, I'm fine. Thanks.

This place is nice.

You don't have to say that. I'm leaving soon.

Why are you here?

I don't really know.

I brought her, Tonya. To see how you're doing.

Why?

Do you think she really cares what happens to me?

I do care, Tonya. I just wish there was something I could do to help.

Then get Decker Atkins to pay its debts.

Make them pay a settlement for firing Hector Torres.

Tony, what makes you think they're going to listen to me?

Your last name for starters?

What an Atkins wants, an Atkins gets.

Not this Atkins.

First of all, Decker despises me.

Second, Rowan has no say in the matter. He only does what she tells him to do.

If I had some money, I wouldn't have to move, and I could stay in school.

You're dropping out?

What else can I do? I have to work.

Tonya, I don't know what to say.

Can a person apologize on behalf of her family?

Not really.

But thank you, brother, for being a big tipper.

And thanks for trying, Mr. Parrish.

Bye.

Bye, Tonya.

Take care of yourself.

If I don't, who else will?

I'll be back.

I'll be back.

I'll be back.

I'll be back.

I'll be back.

I'll be back.

Want me to drive you off in Reghaven?

Fine, Tonya.

Take me home.

Right now, I'm ashamed to see that.

Hey, Tonya.

Talking to me?

Sorry for asking, but, uh, for last night, I didn't expect it.

No, neither did I, but you made your point.

So what's in Hector Torres' file?

Hopefully, proof he was fired for no reason.

And maybe even more than that.

Hector, I'm sorry.

Man, maybe even more than that.

Hector seemed frightened.

Of what? I don't know. He wouldn't tell me, but I was hoping his file might

contain more information, or at least a lead to get me started.

All right, Tony.

I'm gonna try and help you.

What do your sister have to say about that?

I don't know, and I don't care.

I'm doing this for Tonya.

And to teach you a lesson, this time in Atkins will help somebody.

I'm not a contest.

Nobody wins.

I know.

It's just...

It's not easy losing faith in your family, no matter how awful some of them are.

I'm sorry, Susie.

Really?

Listen, are you free for dinner, Tonya?

I bet you've never been to Burgerhead.

Great local choleraan within my modest budget.

I would like to, but I can't. I'm going back to school.

My flight leaves this afternoon.

Then we'll take a rain check.

How long will you be gone?

For good.

There's nothing left from me like success.

I guess you're right.

Get out now while they're going still good.

I sure hate to see you, but come with them.

Yes, Mr. Reed?

Ms. Grayson, come in.

Decker Atkins called this morning with most disturbing piece of news.

She said that you went to Ridgehaven for the funeral service.

Yes, Mr. Reed, I did.

You see, ever since I was a child, I've... I've been to the funeral service.

I've been to the funeral service.

Yes, Mr. Reed, I did.

You see, ever since I was a child, I've idolized Mr. Atkins, and when he died, well...

I just had to go up there and pay my last respects.

Surely you realized the service was private?

To be honest, I never considered it.

I have no excuse. Just a lot of embarrassment.

If I upset Decker Atkins, I feel even worse.

Ms. Grayson, the Decker Atkins Corporation is our only client.

So while I sympathize with you, sorrow, I cannot condone your conduct.

What you did was unforgivable.

I'm going to let you go.

You're firing me?

You said yourself you have no excuse.

One last question.

How do you think the Bar Association will take it when I tell him how Tucker Reed betrayed the trust of his only client?

What are you talking about?

I'm talking, you pompous ass, about how you showed the old man's will to his own daughter.

Which is a breach of ethics and grounds for disbarment.

That's a lie.

Besides, you can't prove it.

Maybe not.

But I can sure raise a stink about how you do business.

The last thing you need now is a breath of scandal.

Especially while you're waiting for the old man's new will.

What do you want?

Here's the deal.

Not only am I not fired, but from now on, you're going to treat me with a lot more respect.

My offer is final.

Take it or leave it.

The way it looks now, we both may be out of work.

With Henry Fleming and his video will, don't be surprised if Decker Atkins belongs to Save the Wales.

We'll see soon enough.

And we'll see it together.

Because when you go to Richhaven to watch that will, you're going to take me along.

I can't do that.

What would they say?

Miss Grayson, you're not even a paralegal.

Why, Mr. Reed?

Is that a promotion?

Ahh.

Come in.

I signed a housemate to do that for you.

We're not the royal family.

I can pack my own suitcase.

As you wish.

But you're not due to leave until tomorrow anyway.

Diana, I changed my reservation.

My flight leaves today at five.

So soon, Susie?

You're leaving before the reading of your father's will?

I forgot about that.

Well, I guess I have to miss it.

Do you think that's wise?

I mean, after all, you are an heir.

Whatever you left me I can find out on the phone.

And I refuse to watch them fight about who gets his money.

It makes me want to give it all away.

Well, that would solve several pressing problems.

It's not for me to say, but you should stay.

For no other reason than to honor your father.

Diana, do you really think you would care?

I just don't think it's that big a deal.

Not yet, it isn't.

But please, would you stay anyway?

For the first time, Susie, I'm asking you a favor.

Have you ever been to Burger Heaven?

Remember, this will be strictly a finale.

So just sit still and bear.

It's all going our way.

It's better.

I see you here on another family visit.

Did she play Florence Nightingale and sign you out again?

Sorry, sister.

I signed my own day pass out.

All right, then, show time.

Before we begin, I want to understood that P. Stuart Atkins III

taped this will to avoid any lawsuit contesting it,

which, to be honest, he anticipated in advance.

You so you all know that he knew it.

We're not on trial. Just play the tape.

Certainly, Mrs. Goldman.

It's Decker Atkins.

Decker Atkins.

Testing one through three.

Eh.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

It's a little tricky.

Eh.

Okay.

Ready for me to be close up, Mr. DeMille.

Now, my first witness is Mrs. Rowan Atkins.

Hey.

Don't you stand there and say something?

Hello.

Goodbye.

I'm sorry, Rowan.

I look like a fool.

My future's in the balance.

Who cares how you look?

Oh, Diana Westley is my other witness.

And she won't appear on camera.

I think her signature will be good enough.

This is a travesty.

A dining-o man who's lost his mind is making a home video,

not legitimate will.

Oh, you sit down, Tucker. I can't see.

Now, before we get to the good stuff,

I want to make sure this scene.

Decker, you a Tucker.

My lawyer and my daughter are already plotting,

so there's no need to separate them now, is it?

You're right. The man's out of his mind.

Turn it off.

Of course she's going to deny it,

but she lies for her living.

But I know it's a truth, and that's all that matters.

Now, let's put Rowan with Tucker's secretary.

I take one looking, you'll know who I go on, girl.

He's sitting with my son.

I can't pipe fate, Rowan. Besides, it's what he wants.

It's not what I want.

Don't listen to him, baby. They're both insane.

Corinne and Diana stay right by the door.

You might need an escape by the time this is through.

Now, Susan's two, stay right where you are,

because I'll bet you're together already.

Now, first, a mundane matter.

Diana Wesley will remain in charge of her javen.

Running the household as she sees fit and a warning decker

don't even think it.

Diane stays rent-free for as long as she blazes.

I can't stand it. It's like he's reading my mind.

Now, what other warning?

About that name, Vital-A drug.

Now, that was my pet project for 25 years,

and at that time, all I wanted was to finally perfect it.

Now, I can see that some things are not meant to be,

and I have come to suspect that Vital-A is among them.

How? Nitty-gritty.

I know damn well how each one of you feels.

And for those of you who think that I was a lousy father,

well, most of you were lousy children.

But all that's beside the point.

Whatever problems we may have had,

decker-agans must endure past my lifetime.

I did not build it up to die with me.

Now, it's your company, and its fate is going to be in your hands.

Treat this lightly, and you stand to lose whatever inheritance

you might have.

But don't expect anything, anything, if you oppose my wishes.

Now, with this in mind, I thought long and hard about how to do it.

Who could be trusted with decker-agans?

And it wasn't easy.

But this much is obvious.

My daughter, decker, lives for the company.

My son, Rowan, lives off the company,

and my son, Adam, lives in the company, Clinic,

which is as much my failing as it is his.

Which leaves the final man of the family, my namesake son, Stowe.

But you remind me of me, but you're only 16.

As for your sister,

Sizzie, you've got the brains and the guts just like your mother got lesser.

Even if she did break my heart.

In other words, Sizzie, you'll go what it takes.

And that's why I'm going to leave everything entirely in your hands.

No!

No!

Oh, my God.

Tucker, can't you do something? Do something!

Larger, broader, this is my will, and I want it quiet.

Henry Fleming has got all the details.

I don't know if you want to make any trouble, just bear this in mind.

Sizzie is not just my daughter.

She is the best man for the job.

No matter what happens, that's still the truth.

God save decorations and like success.

And just remember this.

I love you, Sizzie.

I love you.

I heard the news.

But I wasn't surprised.

You know what they say.

Well, that's thicker than water.

So tell me, Sizzie Atkins.

What happens now?

You

You

You
