She's my daughter!
You don't even know what that means!
This is true, isn't it?
What, darling?
I'm Vivian's daughter.
Darling, Mia, darling. Mia, Mia, please don't go.
- Kyle. - Where to?
Anywhere.
What was that about?
Just saying good-bye.
Terrible thing, Vivian's death.
Bobby, how long has it been?
Don't you ever come near my family, ever again.
Do you wanna know what it feels like
to have the world think you're a murderer?
If you didn't kill anybody,
conscience should be clear.
It is clear, isn't it, Eddie?
So when we're old and gray,
we can remember how young and hot we were.
No!
Okay, go back. Run it again.
What's this, the ATM camera?
Yeah. We get a lot more stuff
after he gets hit, from the phones.
- Wanna see? - Yeah.
Much as I love watching this guy's melon
get split over and over again,
I can't tell one grainy blob from the other.
I mean, what are we doing here?
Hey, I just got this stuff.
Edward's here. I just know it.
He knew Ben was in custody, and Joanna said
he got a phone call at the cotillion and he left.
The guy's not stupid enough to come here by himself.
Merry Christmas in a tuxedo.
Freeze this frame. Freeze it!
Mm-hmm. What's up, Eddie?
Joanna was right.
Edward must've put a tail on Ben.
Good to see you, man.
Samantha, please.
I'm sorry. I... I have to move around.
Ben is dead, and your sister.
How can you just sit there?
Well, I guess I just learned it's better not to panic.
Why didn't you just stay at the cotillion?
They're gonna come after me.
Go to them first. Go to the police
and show them the files you found.
We don't know what they prove.
It has to be why Vivian died.
I need my bow.
Please.
Hey, honey. How's pancakes sound, huh?
Just because we can't see what's on it
doesn't mean somebody else can't tell.
I need new skates.
We just bought those.
Coach says they give me weak posture.
- What's wrong, mommy? - Nothing.
I... I was just thinking about how much I like your daddy.
Who's that?
Maybe it's a mormon.
Hey, you guys, help me with breakfast, huh?
All right, you get the eggs.
You get the milk,
and we'll get you ready for practice.
Your sister is missing.
Can we please just focus on that?
We hired that P.I. we discussed.
Mia was not kidnapped.
She found out her sister was her mother
and she freaked out.
Vivian was not her mother.
- And whose decision was that? - Excuse me?
This conversation does not involve you.
- Vivian was my best friend. - Really?
You haven't spoken to her since you had braces.
Joanna, all of this happened after you left.
You didn't see how upset Vivian was.
She wanted to get rid of the baby.
Yes, not that I have to explain myself
to you, Joanna, but I know how important
family was to Robert.
And so I stayed with Vivian,
and we agreed on the arrangement.
The one where you took her baby as your own?
Do you have any idea what Sofia sacrificed?
What people thought?
Probably the same thing I did until I found out the truth.
You were forced to marry your secretary
- 'cause you knocked her up. - That's enough, Julian!
Who's the father?
Have you no concept of boundaries?
You're a guest in this house, for God's sake!
The father is out of the picture.
What does that mean?
Is he dead?
Did you pay him off?
We all know how Vivian was.
It could have been anyone.
That is the end of it.
Vivian was what, 16?
She dated that guy Cameron,
and then the one with the earring, Brett.
Who else?
You knew everyone she dated.
How old is he?
I don't know. 40?
Gross.
No, it's not like that.
We talk about music and drink montrachet.
It's intellectual.
Where'd you get that?
It's his signature thing.
How smooth is that?
Just tell us!
Why do there have to be so many secrets?
It doesn't matter who it is!
Because it was your best friend.
That's why you don't speak anymore.
You shut your mouth.
You were supposed to protect her!
She was a child!
That's enough!
You say one more word and I will kill you.
It's Dwight Haverstock, isn't it?
- synced and corrected by chamallow - - www.addic7ed.com -
That was a long drive.
I haven't been to Ocean City in years.
Oh, crap. The code is "Claire."
Whose place is this again?
My friend's.
Well, her parents', Claire and Gary.
They only come here on Claire's birthday,
hence the uncrackable alarm code.
Hey... you okay?
Every family has its issues, right?
We can talk about it.
Or not talk about it?
Break a few windows, set some stuff on fire.
Think I just wanna take a shower.
Uh, I'll scrounge up some food
and we can hang out here until you're ready to go back.
I'm never going back.
Forgot about our secret knock.
No, you didn't.
What are you doing?
Well, I just dropped a nuclear bomb
on your family.
So now I'm just hiding out.
I'm glad you said it.
I think Sofia's gonna kill me.
I swear, I thought all the veins
in her neck were gonna burst.
Vivian told me about Mia before she died.
She didn't tell me about Haverstock,
but she told me she was Mia's mom.
That's why we fought.
She was gonna take Mia away.
Does Sofia know that?
I don't know, but if she did,
she would've gone ballistic.
Mia is everything to her.
I gotta go out.
You might wanna
lock this door behind me on the way out.
So are you going to arrest me or what?
Come on, Edward, you were 50 feet away.
I don't think you used your mind to push him.
And I hope to God you didn't go there to watch.
So what were you doing there?
Maybe you had second thoughts.
Maybe you were just there by coincidence.
Or maybe you were really trying to help him.
That's a theory.
Look.
It's gonna be you.
People want it to be you.
You already got away with murder once, allegedly.
But if it's not you,
then you need to smarten up real fast, man.
Four people know about the Lyritrol cover-up.
Three of 'em are already dead.
By my count, you're next.
So you think they were murdered
because of a drug at our company?
Don't you?
Mexico, Thailand.
Vivian says over 20 people have died.
I'd hoped the days of your sister
being a problem were behind us.
Thank you for bringing this to me, Edward.
I'll take it from here.
Are you protecting somebody from your family?
'Cause I'm having a hard time believing
any one of them will go to prison for you.
I'm sorry.
I don't have any answers for you.
Have you looked into who posted his bail?
I'll get on that.
In case you wise up.
Agent Moreno.
I appreciate that Vivian has you in her corner.
Right.
Farrell. Double "R," double "L".
- New York license 579FH1. - Right.
- I mean, I can try. - Thanks, Gabe.
- I owe you one. - All right.
Don't you dare take that tone with me.
We're in the middle of a family emergency.
My daughter is missing.
Fine. Fine!
I'll be there in an hour.
Where are you going?
An early spin class.
If I get any more wound up,
we won't have any stemware left.
Let me get rayburn to drive you.
No. I'll be fine.
I promise.
Hurry home.
Will she ever forgive us?
I don't know.
Ok.
- You ready? - Yeah.
- You're not gonna believe this. - What?
Pick something.
- Oh, my God. - Right?
No, everything in here is a violent taste crime.
Well, you can't hide out in a ball gown.
Ugh.
All right. I'll pick for you.
Uh, this?
Wow.
All right. Well, then I get to pick for you.
Hey, I'm not the one dressed like a princess.
Hey, rules are rules, man.
Okay.
Thanks. Oh, here, wait.
Really?
Thank you.
Should we call someone and,
well, tell them that you're okay?
No, I don't wanna talk to any of them again, ever.
Well, don't you have questions?
Yeah, I have, like, a million questions, but...
Oh, I don't know that there are any answers
that are gonna make me feel better.
What if they, uh...
you know, what if they make me feel worse?
Well, what about your dad,
your biological one?
Oh, my God.
I hadn't even thought about that.
Oh, it could be anybody.
What if it's, like, Luke Perry or Bill Clinton?
I mean, I loved Vivian, but she really got around.
No, I can't even... I can't think about that.
All right, all right. Uh, kittens, rainbows,
and sunshine.
- Forget about it. - Okay.
You almost ready over there?
- Yeah. - Ready?
One, two, three.
I feel like I'm seeing you for the first time.
I know.
- So what now? - I don't know.
What would Claire and Gary do?
I don't know.
Eat lobster, antique,
make useless crap out of driftwood.
Sounds perfect.
Shall we, Claire darling?
I'd love to, Gary dear.
Wonderful.
Haverstock?
Dwight Haverstock had sex with our sister?
The word is raped. She was 16.
He was in his 40s.
Oh, my God.
How could this have happened?
It happened because we were away
and didn't pay attention.
And dad and Sofia are, like,
world-class liars.
Vivian deserved better.
Well, a lot happened to Vivian
that she didn't deserve.
Let's go kick his ass.
Julian, he's a U.S. Senator.
You can't just go after him with a baseball bat.
Why didn't dad handle this?
- It doesn't make any sense to me. - I don't care.
I don't understand anything dad does anymore.
I'm gonna go to Haverstock's.
I'm gonna lose my temper, see what happens.
Yeah, I'm sure he'll be terrified.
I was hoping you'd come with me,
but I guess you're just gonna sit here
on your ass and do nothing for a change, again.
- Yeah? - Got your message.
- Where is she now? - Harlem.
Damn it, Joanna, she might see you.
I can't believe I have to remind you that I'm a cop.
We wanted to know who posted the 50 grand and bail.
I see Sofia with a magic closet full of cash,
- I follow her. - It doesn't make sense.
As far as we know, she didn't know who Ben was.
But maybe she did.
She's going in. She's going in.
I think this is the meet. I'm gonna stay on her.
No. Stay put. I'll be there soon.
Just don't be a dummy.
I heard he was up.
You don't know what you're talking about.
I'm in the insurance business.
This is what I talk about.
Ask him!
Don't you go in there, Joanna.
Larry!
My ferret got loose. Larry!
Has your door been open? Because he slides right in.
You never even see him. Larry!
Whatever you forgot, you don't need.
You can buy another one.
Just do not go back inside.
Are you crazy? I don't care about no ferret!
He bites. Last time he got loose,
he was hiding underneath someone's covers
and he bit the guy in the berries, ten stitches.
So can I please come in and look?
They're gonna kick me out if I don't find him.
Larry!
Oh, yeah, mami.
- No hablo. - No, no, no.
What I'm saying is, all this right here?
This is nice, real nice, you know what I mean?
You can't bring that all around here
and not get some appreciation.
- You know what I mean? - Thank you.
So you work out? Hm?
'Cause me and you, we could work up
a little sweat together.
It'd be a lot of fun, you know what I'm saying?
Don't push it.
You sure about that?
Yo, we could have a lot of fun, me and you.
It's gonna be like that?
Come on, baby.
You don't need to do that to me.
You just move in?
Um, what's a ferret, anyways?
It's a big rat.
Is that rat in here or not?
Wait. Did you hear that?
What?
Oh, I thought I heard something.
Maybe I should just check the apartment underneath you.
If I find it...
I'm killin' it.
You'd be doing me a favor.
I tried to hold her off as long as I could.
Did she see you?
I don't think she saw me.
- Think or you know? - I'm clear.
Sure as hell better hope so.
Remember that thief that we busted
who was casing apartments
using the stupid ferret story?
Chrissee with two "E" s?
- Uh-huh. - Okay.
I'm impressed.
Yeah, well, the bigger the lie,
- the more people buy it. - Thanks.
The guy had no furniture in his apartment.
Tracks on his arms.
"Teo Agresar."
I'll run him through the system.
He might be the guy who supplied
the heroin that killed Vivian.
Mm.
But you still want it to be Edward.
Look, that dog doesn't wanna hunt, right?
Ben made a call from a pay phone
on the night he posted bail.
I got Gabe dumping the phones on pearl street,
but I'm bettin' it's not Edward.
Well, Julian told me that Ben and Vivian
were gonna take Mia away.
If Sofia knew about that,
that's definitely a motive.
Maybe this whole thing isn't a drug conspiracy.
Maybe it's really just about a mother
trying to protect her family.
Is it possible that the evil stepmother did it?
Yeah, it's possible,
just like it's possible if anyone else did.
You're using a tone with me.
I know you asked Gabe to help you find Mia.
She can get into a lot of trouble on her own.
Plus, I don't feel great about
Sofia or Robert getting to her first.
How are you gonna explain how you found her?
You don't know what happened back then.
I can't just leave her to these people.
I owe this to Vivian.
What you owe Vivian is solving her murder.
We're getting somewhere here, okay?
Just stay out of the Mia thing.
Okay.
Yeah.
- Here you go. - Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
Gary dear?
You know what would be marvy with that lobster?
I'm all out of cash.
Although I'm sure we've got some wine
back at our ridiculously huge vacation house.
Who said anything about cash?
I thought you were trying to avoid attention.
Yeah, well, maybe now I wanna go on a crime spree.
Come on, it'll be fun.
Yeah, until you get busted and they call your parents.
I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
I just don't wanna see you get in any trouble.
Well, I was kinda born into it, remember?
Yeah, yeah. I'll load the bike.
- Hi. - Hey... hey, excuse me.
Excuse me! H...
Somebody call the police.
Is Julian with you?
He left before we could talk.
I need to ask you about Vivian,
about the day I told you
she had information on Lyritrol.
We'll discuss this later,
after we find Julian and Mia.
Hey, it's Mia.
Leave me a message, or not.
He went to see Haverstock.
Stupid, impulsive...
He has a right to answers.
Not to this.
Get me the boy.
I know about Vivian.
Now, my father may not have the balls to expose you.
I do.
You really don't want to threaten me like that.
Actually, I really do.
Are you a little bit curious
why your father never had the "balls" to expose me?
You're very good with words, by the way.
I didn't know about Haverstock
until right before Mia was born.
Vivian and I had a fight, and she just said it.
Told me how he got her drunk,
gave her pills.
He was my best friend.
I went straight to his house.
I wanted to kill him.
Your father breaks down my door.
He says he's going to destroy me.
Imagine how I felt,
my best friend calling me a monster.
Do you hear yourself right now?
You raped his daughter!
That's what you think.
And I know that's what your father thinks.
But I cared for Vivian, deeply.
If you spin this into a love story,
I'm gonna break your fingers.
You're angry.
Whoa, you're a good brother...
almost two decades later.
Do you remember,
after Vivian was cloistered away,
your brother got into a bit of a situation?
Went to a party, slept with a girl.
Next morning, she was dead.
Kimberly Yaeger.
Mm. Oh, of course you remember.
You were at the same party, weren't you?
Edward was never charged 'cause that morning
he called your father who called me.
I was willing to risk my career
to tidy things up.
"To tidy things up."
You were the District Attorney.
You didn't go after him.
That. Oh, and also there was
a crucial piece of evidence that was never found.
What murder weapon?
How many times have we had this conversation?
You've never said a word!
He was supposed to destroy it.
That day, he sent a guy to help us.
He found a golf club near the body.
Haverstock kept it as insurance.
He lied to me.
What do you care if he has it, huh?
Tell me. Why?
Say it, dad.
Why does it matter?
Because...
it has her blood and your fingerprints.
Do you know you can't charge
statutory rape after five years,
but you can charge somebody with murder
for as long as it remains unsolved.
So you said you would release the golf club
if dad ever came after you?
What could I do?
I had to protect myself.
How could I choose between my children?
I couldn't risk you spending
the rest of your life in prison!
Is that it?
Is that all of it?
You gonna tell me in five years
that there's another body
or that you kept her heart in the basement?
Don't be ridiculous.
I only wanted to protect you!
Vivian shouldn't have been punished for what I did!
You make these decisions for the family,
and all you do is make things worse!
I did what I thought was right.
You have no idea what's right!
And no one should get away with murder.
All I ever did was care for your family.
And what did I get?
I lost a woman I loved,
my only child,
and my best friend.
You're gonna pay for this.
- That's really good. - It's really good.
I don't care what people say, Gary dear,
screw caps are the future.
Did you find this in the pantry?
Mm-hmm. You were right.
There's a ton of 'em there.
That was a lie.
No kidding.
I don't know why I stole it.
I don't know what I would do if my family did that to me.
It pisses me off.
It's mostly that they kept it from me, you know?
I could have gone my whole life without knowing.
I think that's the part that bothers me the most.
I am sorry.
I'm sorry I dragged you into all this.
Hey, if you hadn't, I would never have found out
how good I look in plaid.
It's like a blessing.
That's what I'm saying.
So are we...
Yeah. Okay?
Yeah.
Hello?
I got a hit on that kid Kyle's bike plate in Ocean City.
Wanted on a shoplifting charge.
- Yes! - Gets worse.
Turns out boyfriend's got a record.
Could get into some real trouble.
Can you get them to hold back
until I get there, find Mia?
- I can try. - Good.
Wait. I thought will told you
not to do me any more favors.
Yeah, well, cop to cop,
sometimes he needs to be reminded
he's not the total boss of me.
Thanks, Gabe.
Where are you running off to?
Uh, the P.I. just called the house, and I answered.
They think Mia's in Ocean City.
Um, her friend Chloe has a house there.
I think I have her address in my phone.
- Let's go find her. - Wait, wait, wait.
Maybe it's better I just stay out of the whole thing.
Please, Joanna.
She'll listen to you.
Okay.
Where'd he take you this time?
Nowhere.
I just wanna go to sleep.
I'm tired.
That is no fair. We have a deal.
I cover for you, and you spill all the dirt.
We screwed, okay?
Now, would you please stop acting like a child
and go to sleep?
Sorry.
It might be important.
Can you get that for me?
Yeah, definitely don't want that call.
Joanna Padget's phone.
Who is this?
This is Julian Bowers.
You're "stupid," I presume?
Hi. Sorry.
What the hell is he doing answering your phone?
I don't know. What's up?
Well, I ran your guy, Teo Agresar,
and you were right. He's got quite a drug history.
Heroin, especially.
Except it got him sent to prison for two years.
He just got out.
So if Sofia did kill Vivian,
he didn't help.
What about the bag of money?
The payoff could still be for Ben.
I'll take a closer look at the footage,
see if I can spot him.
In the meantime, you keep
a close eye on Sofia.
That's gonna be kind of a problem
because I'm leaving town for a bit.
With Julian.
I'm sorry.
Well, I hope when you find her,
it's worth it.
Drive safe.
Your boyfriend pissed?
He's not my boyfriend.
Liar.
Why won't she call?
She will. Give her time.
No. The longer it is,
the more I see her head filling up
with every wrong idea.
And God knows where that degenerate
on a motorcycle has taken her.
I never should have let her keep seeing him.
If I could just talk to her,
bring her home.
No.
We need to do it differently this time.
We can't make that choice for her.
What if she doesn't come home?
What if she hates me forever?
Sofia, I watched you raise that girl.
She loves you.
We have to trust her.
We can't control them anymore,
otherwise this table will always be empty.
Okay.
But I need you to agree on something in return.
Nope. Too much.
Ah, it's unbelievable.
Do I have a chip or something?
Listen, your parents don't know where you are yet.
You mean my grandparents?
Why don't you get dressed, and we'll talk about it?
How are you?
About what you'd expect.
I'm so sorry.
That's gonna wear thin real fast.
Everyone is just so sorry.
Could we just talk about something else, please?
So you like this guy?
No, I was trading sex for gas money.
You use protection?
Yeah, oh, my God. Yes, we...
This conversation is actually worse.
Is this your superpower or something?
Just leave me alone, okay?
No, you know what? Not okay.
I'm gonna ask questions,
I'm gonna keep sticking my nose in,
and I'm basically gonna be a pain in your ass.
You know why? Hey.
'Cause I didn't pay attention to Vivian when it mattered.
I'm not gonna make the same mistake with you.
Well, I'm not going back to that house.
Good. You can stay with Julian.
Vivian spent most of her life trying to get out.
I'm starting to understand why.
Come back with us.
Okay.
Do you know what this is about, sir?
You're in possession of stolen property.
Stolen property? I don't have any stolen property.
The wine, sir, the wine.
Look, it was just a stupid prank, okay?
I... I'll pay for the wine.
Just let me talk to the shop owner.
You got no idea the trouble you're in.
Transporting a minor across state lines,
shoplifting, home invasion.
And with your record, you're looking at five years.
Now turn around.
Deputy... I wonder if I might
have a word with that young man.
Come on.
Sure thing, Senator.
You can stay here as long as you want to.
The guest towels are, uh...
- They're... - I'll find 'em.
Where are the guest towels?
Wow, it's late.
I'll call you tomorrow.
- Okay. - Okay.
You know, you can stay, if you want.
We have plenty of room.
I should probably get back.
What about Sofia's neck veins?
I'll be okay.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Uh, you're welcome.
What?
Nothing.
Just going to get some towels.
Oh, my God.
This is still here from new years.
Those sparklers.
Vivian always loved a sense of occasion.
You know, I can't think about her now,
even the really great stuff, without thinking,
"she was your mom the whole time,
and she never said anything."
It's like I have to lose her all over again.
She was gonna tell you.
Awesome. Yeah.
Right before she went off with her boyfriend
to start a new life with a new baby.
And she was gonna take you with her.
She was serious about it.
Oh.
Um, do you know who my father is?
No.
Okay. Good night.
Thank you for finding Mia.
You're welcome.
How is she?
She's strong.
I know what you must think of me.
Everyone has their opinions,
whether they know the whole story or not.
I cared about Vivian.
I tried to love her.
She didn't always make it easy.
No.
No, she didn't.
I had no idea what I was getting into
when I agreed to raise Mia.
I only knew that I loved Robert.
I never expected to fall in love
with this little girl,
but I loved her fiercely.
She had a happy life.
She loved me.
Do you believe that?
Yes.
I don't think you do.
I don't think you care...
how I feel, or if my life is torn apart.
It's time for you to leave this house.
I've spoken to Robert.
And he agrees.
Of course.
Hey, what's going on?
I want you to take the girls
and move to California, like you planned.
What? No.
You can't be here with me.
Yes, I can.
Whatever happens next, I wanna be here.
I killed her.
Kimberly Yaeger.
What... happened with your father?
Where is this coming from?
My father covered it up.
I should've gone to prison.
Instead, I got to marry you.
I got to be father of our girls.
I got to have a life that I didn't deserve.
And I'm...
I'm so grateful, but he covered it up,
like he's covering this up.
And the FBI and the police can try,
but I'm the only person that can end this.
I have to stop my father.
And you can't be here when I do.
Go to California.
Yeah, I know. You were right.
I was a dummy and it got me
kicked out of the house.
But, will, I still have a job at Bowers.
We can still do this.
You need a place to stay?
No, I'm good.
I know I messed up.
But I don't want you to worry.
I have a plan "B".
You're moving in with him.
Offer's still open to stay here?
Absolutely.
