Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I didn't choose to be this way, a loner always seeking the story unfold around me, fixating
00:00:27on the details, creating a what-happened, a who-does-what circumstance.
00:00:35It is who I am.
00:00:38Always been and always will be a writer.
00:00:57I am who I am because I am who I am because I am who I am because I am who I am because
00:01:25I am who I am because I am who I am because I am who I am because I am who I am because
00:01:55I am who I am because I am who I am because I am who I am because I am who I am because

00:05:30I am because I am who I am because I am who I am because I am who I am because I am who I am because
00:05:31I am who I am.
00:05:50I hope you don't mind, honey.
00:06:00I invited her.
00:06:07Happy fucking anniversary, Isabel.
00:06:27Blake, I don't think we've formally met.
00:06:51You are exquisite.
00:06:56We have met before, at the cafe.
00:06:59I served you and your husband.
00:07:04Are you sure you want me here?
00:07:07Is this some kind of joke?
00:07:08Cecile, why don't you join us for our anniversary?
00:07:13Yes, Cecile.
00:07:15Please do.
00:07:16The sun is going to keep getting hotter, so when you put your suit on, you should cover
00:07:44up.
00:07:45You know, it's true what George says about you.
00:07:51You're the most beautiful girl I've seen with him.
00:07:57Ever since I saw you at the cafe, I've been absolutely mesmerized by you.
00:08:05It's an illusion, my dear.
00:08:10He tends to like them in their prime.
00:08:13They're probably not as sweet as you, though.
00:08:16They?
00:08:17Well, of course.
00:08:18You didn't think that you were his only, did you?
00:08:25George seems like the kind of man that can handle more than one woman.
00:08:28If that's what suits him.
00:08:30Then who am I to judge what he does in his spare time?
00:08:34He'd be perfect if not for his needs.
00:08:39Do you enjoy sleeping with him?
00:08:44I do prefer older men.
00:08:54After ten years of marriage, you tend to get a sense of what your man likes.
00:09:02If this trip goes according to my plan, maybe I'll like you, too.
00:09:10I think you already do.
00:09:15George, is it too soon?
00:09:18Too soon for what?
00:09:22My wife likes to drink.
00:09:27I know that phrase like the back of my hand.
00:09:30Well, George, in honor of our young guest, let's grab the champagne.
00:09:37Oh, don't worry about it, darling.
00:09:39When you're out here, time doesn't exist.
00:09:42You can do anything, be anyone you want.
00:09:46Because without time, then it never really happened.
00:09:54Are you going to let him go?
00:09:56Nope.
00:09:58It's Thursday, gotta get more information from each of them.
00:10:02Certainly not till we run some tests.
00:10:05Right, the saw.
00:10:08Not only that, look at him.
00:10:10Our young addict just got his blood drawn this morning.
00:10:14Oh, the kid already admitted to that.
00:10:17Just being thorough.
00:10:21I wonder which one did it.
00:10:23This one.
00:10:31I'm old school.
00:10:34This is Detective Kenny Park, K-E-N-N-Y, P-A-R-K,
00:10:38badge number 817-A334, on November 17th, 2015.
00:10:43I am interviewing Isabelle Boulanger.
00:10:46Why don't you just tell me what happened?
00:10:51I'm just his casual weekend friend.
00:10:55The kind that usually has consequences if you're not discreet.
00:10:58Aren't you concerned about being out on the ocean with a jealous wife?
00:11:03I've been in worse situations.
00:11:09Do you think George and Isabelle,
00:11:13and maybe even Blake, have done this sort of thing before?
00:11:18Is it a game to them?
00:11:22I don't really think about it, Detective Park.
00:11:25People come and go.
00:11:28I'm not invested.
00:11:34These two, they seem awfully in sync.
00:11:39Their mannerisms, their tone, their creepishly similar looks.
00:11:45Come on.
00:11:47Cecile and Isabelle?
00:11:49Isabelle's honest.
00:11:51There's something trustworthy about her.
00:11:54And this guy, he has this gorgeous wife.
00:11:57And what, this sex toy on the side,
00:12:00or whatever the fuck they've been saying?
00:12:03Well, let's call this for what it is.
00:12:05Some kinky, eyes wide shut sort of thing,
00:12:08and a fight between some jealous bitch
00:12:11who may or may not be a closeted lesbian.
00:12:14I'm going to take him and knock this fucker out.
00:12:18He falls over the side of the boat and the rest is history.
00:12:21Now, you want my personal opinion?
00:12:24They're all covering for this as a trio.
00:12:28Where did you go, George?
00:12:32What happened?
00:12:35Talk to me.
00:12:38They killed him, Park.
00:12:41This is a story of betrayal, adultery,
00:12:44mind-fucking games, sex and money.
00:12:54Is it really, though?
00:12:57I mean, on the surface, yeah.
00:13:00It is.
00:13:03There's always more.
00:13:06Why have Blake and Cecile there?
00:13:09What's the point?
00:13:25So I guess you're used to being alone.
00:13:28Are you lonely, Cecile?
00:13:31I may be young, but...
00:13:34I've already learned that life is lonely, Detective.
00:13:42Are you happy now, George?
00:13:48When are you going to sleep with her?
00:13:54Relax, Isabel.
00:13:57It's not always about you and what you think people ought to do.
00:14:00I get it.
00:14:03Stop telling me to relax, George.
00:14:06God, show me a goddamn emotion.
00:14:09You know, something, anything.
00:14:11Sometimes you are just so fucking detached.
00:14:15Honey, I have a book to write, and you know what that entails.
00:14:19This wasn't supposed to be a weekend for your writing.
00:14:22This is our ten-year anniversary. This is about us.
00:14:25And apparently, Cecile.
00:14:28Okay, look, I get it. I'm sorry.
00:14:31Just remember these ideas pay for our lifestyle.
00:14:36You just want control.
00:14:39And for us to be grateful for the things that you give us.
00:14:42But everything comes attached to an expectation.
00:14:45Honey...
00:14:47Do you like having everyone need you? Is that it?
00:14:50Why don't you go take a seat upstairs, okay?
00:14:54I get it. I'll stop.
00:14:57Okay. I get it. I'll stop.
00:15:15What's that?
00:15:17It's a fisherman's buoy.
00:15:20Helps the fishermen mark where their nets are.
00:15:23But, uh, it's also so that I don't hit them.
00:15:28Are they always like this?
00:15:32Not usually.
00:15:34I think it might be, uh...
00:15:37Me?
00:15:40I get it.
00:15:44So he's writing a book, then?
00:15:47He always has a book to write.
00:15:51I didn't know he was a writer.
00:15:54Have you read any of his books? Any good?
00:15:58Well, I'm always in them.
00:16:01One form or another.
00:16:05George likes to put people in situations...
00:16:08and then see how things play out.
00:16:12I guess four people on the sailboat makes the bill.
00:16:17Speak of the devil.
00:16:23It's Hemingway.
00:16:25I'll read it as soon as I get to the beach.
00:16:28Seagulls.
00:16:47A seagull in the water.
00:16:50Yes, it's going to be his best one yet, isn't it, George?
00:16:55Now, who needs a drink like I do?
00:16:59Here, have a glass.
00:17:13Scavengers.
00:17:16They take things.
00:17:19They wait when the moment strikes.
00:17:21They fight for whatever's available to them.
00:17:32If you'd have told me I'd be sipping champagne...
00:17:36on a sailboat across the Pacific Riviera...
00:17:41with a beautiful woman...
00:17:43I would have thought I'd died in contact.
00:17:46We have a lot to talk about.
00:17:53So, George is an author.
00:17:57When I met him...
00:17:59I was drawn to his strength, his...
00:18:03unpredictability.
00:18:06He's the kind of man that can own you with a look.
00:18:11Control.
00:18:14Manipulation.
00:18:18And this is attractive to you, yes?
00:18:22The man that plays with each of you.
00:18:25Like you're a pawn in his mental game of chess.
00:18:30I like games.
00:18:33I like playing them and I like being in them.
00:18:41Do you like role-playing, detective?
00:18:49I'm married, ma'am.
00:18:52I like to avoid games.
00:18:58The spirit of choice.
00:19:01What people do and why they do it.
00:19:04If, in fact, they had to make a decision in the moment...
00:19:08if motivated, would they react?
00:19:12Would they hesitate?
00:19:17Is this yours?
00:19:24I was wearing it.
00:19:26Isabel asked me to.
00:19:29To cover you up?
00:19:33Or to dress me up like a doll.
00:19:37It's George's blood.
00:20:08You're the sober one on this boat trip.
00:20:11Nineteen months.
00:20:15Just curious.
00:20:17How does one get heroin on a boat?
00:20:22By bringing it.
00:20:28To each his own.
00:20:32I screwed up.
00:20:37Have some coffee.
00:20:45Do you honestly believe...
00:20:48after coming down from heroin...
00:20:51that I'm still alive?
00:20:54I don't know.
00:20:58After coming down from heroin...
00:21:02then I'd want a cup of coffee.
00:21:07Blake, what happened out there?
00:21:13As you get older, you come to realize...
00:21:16that meaning is what gets you out of bed in the morning.
00:21:20To catch a fish.
00:21:22Not just a fish. The biggest fish.
00:21:25And that was the old man's purpose.
00:21:30What happens when you catch that fish?
00:21:34I don't know.
00:21:36See, Blake, that's the point.
00:21:39Life's not black and white. If it was, we'd have no purpose.
00:21:42We need uncertainty.
00:21:44We need something to need.
00:21:46To possess.
00:21:48To give reason to all this...
00:21:51this beauty.
00:21:54Nothingness that surrounds you and I.
00:21:58Context. Right.
00:22:02And once the fisherman gets it, the shark comes along...
00:22:05and devours the old man's catch.
00:22:08The universe correcting itself.
00:22:11The old man's purpose.
00:22:13Spend your whole life learning to accept a lack of control.
00:22:19Irony.
00:22:21The basis by which all art exists.
00:22:29Some bullshit that was.
00:22:32Blake.
00:22:35I need to understand the day.
00:22:38Why George has disappeared.
00:22:40Not his philosophy, nor his little parenting anecdotes.
00:22:45In order to give you a goddamn understanding...
00:22:50you have to know the background of how it all happened.
00:23:08Sorry.
00:23:10Please.
00:23:13Please. Proceed.
00:23:16Anything involving George cannot be easily explained.
00:23:21He's unpredictable, unreasonable...
00:23:26yet completely logical and without any emotion.
00:23:31Like a genius.
00:23:36Or a sociopath.
00:23:43Let me paint you a Rembrandt.
00:23:47Time spent with George is like time spent with a master.
00:23:53On one side, you feel for the guy.
00:23:57On the other hand...
00:23:59is it some brilliantly woven manipulation of your emotions?
00:24:05Is this the compass?
00:24:07It is.
00:24:09It's quite nice.
00:24:12Is it?
00:24:14It's broken.
00:24:16I can see that.
00:24:23What about George are you protecting?
00:24:27Why do you think I'm protecting George?
00:24:31Why do you think I'm protecting George?
00:24:34Because you just said he was your master.
00:24:37You misinterpreted.
00:24:39He isn't my master.
00:24:41Nobody is.
00:24:43I needed a place to live, and George took me in.
00:24:47He gives me what I need, and I give him what he needs.
00:24:51Simple as that.
00:24:54He's my friend.
00:24:57But I'm not protecting anybody but myself, detective.
00:25:02If he's gone...
00:25:05do you get his boat?
00:25:09You think that I would help Isabel offer her husband...
00:25:12and then get to keep his boat?
00:25:15What's my endgame...
00:25:17if I was stupid enough to do something like that?
00:25:21Only someone who truly hated being controlled...
00:25:24could find that kind of motivation.
00:25:28Maybe it was you.
00:25:31Maybe it was Isabel.
00:25:35Maybe it was you and Isabel.
00:25:39I'm my own master. I had nothing to gain.
00:25:44Each day I wake up and I try to survive.
00:25:47George gave me more than enough, and I would never take from him.
00:25:52At least not without his giving.
00:25:56I know you're an addict. I know you relapsed.
00:25:59And I'm sorry.
00:26:01But I have got two women in the other room and a man who's disappeared.
00:26:08So you have got to give me something to work with here.
00:26:15You want something to work with?
00:26:18I didn't do the heroin that's in my system.
00:26:28I don't know how it got there.
00:26:30I went to bed sober.
00:26:32Then I woke up like this.
00:26:34It was definitely mine.
00:26:37But it was around my neck when I went to bed.
00:26:43How's that for something?
00:26:46You know what I love about this compass?
00:26:50It's perfect to its design.
00:26:53There was a problem and a man came up with an idea to solve that problem and this is it.
00:26:59Now it can be a paperweight or a doorstop.
00:27:05But that's not what it's meant to be. It's not what it's designed to be.
00:27:09But what it does best is show us the way.
00:27:15That's simple.
00:27:19But it has value.
00:27:35What were you boys doing downstairs for so long?
00:27:38Organizing the cabin and packing for the beach.
00:27:41I showed Blake what you got me for our second anniversary.
00:27:51I bought this for George when we went to Morocco.
00:27:53I sat in a flea market for three hours while he tried to talk the price down.
00:27:57Practically stole it from that poor little man.
00:28:00He was a third generation fisherman.
00:28:02Got it off his grandfather's boat.
00:28:05He hated boat source.
00:28:07Practically doing him a favor.
00:28:09Right.
00:28:15Don't worry.
00:28:16She likes to do this to me.
00:28:19She likes to see me beg.
00:28:21This time I'm really going to do it, George.
00:28:26It's not worth it, Isabel.
00:28:33But it's so much fun, though.
00:28:36Hey guys, Riach Bay is coming right past that cove.
00:28:39We should anchor soon.
00:28:46RIACH BAY
00:28:51This wasn't the first time we'd gone to Three Arch Bay.
00:28:56We've become very familiar with the area.
00:29:01And we knew which times to enjoy the beach privately with no other boats.
00:29:08Took the smaller boat to shore.
00:29:12And had a perfect day.
00:29:16RIACH BAY
00:29:26The thing about Three Arch Bay is it's secluded.
00:29:32You can climb the rocks.
00:29:35Scale the hill.
00:29:38Traverse the underwater coral.
00:29:42It's the type of place you'd expect a couple like George and Isabel to go to.
00:29:49It's heaven on earth.
00:29:53George and I walked along the beach.
00:29:57Talked about life, art, and the idea of finding peace.
00:30:02Which was something that we talked about often.
00:30:06Cecile and Isabel remained on the beach, continuing to drink champagne,
00:30:11while bathing under the sun.
00:30:19Everybody was getting along.
00:30:35RIACH BAY
00:31:05RIACH BAY
00:31:35RIACH BAY
00:31:54This place. How can you stand it?
00:31:59It's just so beautiful.
00:32:02I'm used to living out of a suitcase.
00:32:05Ever since I was a kid.
00:32:08All alone.
00:32:11Along the way I got comfortable.
00:32:15Wondering.
00:32:17Knowing that...
00:32:20It's just me.
00:32:22Just me.
00:32:24Alone.
00:32:32When I was your age I left home.
00:32:36Abusive father.
00:32:38An emotionally unavailable mother.
00:32:42In a wild nature I just had to explore.
00:32:45That's how I met George.
00:32:48At first he scared me.
00:32:52He was the first man I couldn't resist.
00:32:55I knew I was going to marry him.
00:32:58I needed something to ground me.
00:33:01Someone who made me feel safe.
00:33:04Someone who made me feel less alone.
00:33:07But now I've come to learn.
00:33:10Sometimes it's better not to feel safe.
00:33:18Leave him.
00:33:22Look.
00:33:25Look.
00:33:29Something I took from my mother before I left home.
00:33:40This isn't right. You...
00:33:43You don't know me.
00:33:45The day before I left home I was on a train.
00:33:50I looked out the window.
00:33:54There were sunflower fields as far as the eye could see.
00:34:02Come on.
00:34:04Let's go play in the water.
00:34:16I swear I can do it five times.
00:34:20Like this.
00:34:23It doesn't work for me like that.
00:34:26Can you hear that?
00:34:28What?
00:34:29Seriously, you can't hear that?
00:34:31What is it?
00:34:32It's a whole orchestra of violins playing just for you.
00:34:35There you go.
00:34:36That's real funny, George.
00:34:37No, I'm serious.
00:34:38Hey, guys, guys, come back.
00:34:39He wants you to play for him.
00:34:40Seriously, he does.
00:34:41George.
00:34:42Come back.
00:34:43What?
00:34:44The joke is already getting old.
00:34:45I don't need anybody's sympathy.
00:34:52The girls look like they're having a good time.
00:35:06Have you ever been to the sandcastle, Blake?
00:35:10Of course.
00:35:12I mean a sandcastle.
00:35:14With a moat and a labyrinth of tunnels and...
00:35:20And a maze to protect your queen.
00:35:23I'd have to find a queen first.
00:35:26Those, too.
00:35:28They're dangerous.
00:35:32Why would you say that?
00:35:35You know, when I was seven years old,
00:35:38I saw the most beautiful girl I'd ever come across.
00:35:42So naturally, I ran to the store
00:35:45and I got her a $12 diamond necklace.
00:35:48I wrote the most professing poem.
00:35:51I even pulled down two flowers from my mother's garden.
00:35:56So when I saw her next, I gave her all those things,
00:35:59the gift, the poem, and the flower.
00:36:03What happened?
00:36:06They tore the poem to pieces.
00:36:09They ripped the necklace apart.
00:36:12And the flowers, well, they, uh...
00:36:15They were already dead by the time I got them to her.
00:36:21Things don't get better, Blake.
00:36:24They just get bigger.
00:36:29I bet I could do it six times. Hold on.
00:36:45♪
00:37:16Enjoying the day?
00:37:19I am.
00:37:21I love it here.
00:37:24I can relate.
00:37:33Do you want to talk about it?
00:37:38Do you still love him?
00:37:42Do you still love him?
00:37:45I ask myself that every day.
00:37:49And?
00:37:52And I'll let you know if I come up with an answer.
00:37:57♪
00:38:08He really believes in me.
00:38:11Maybe he has to believe in something.
00:38:16One day,
00:38:19I want to have a girl like you
00:38:23and a boat like that.
00:38:26My own quaint.
00:38:29Build a sandcastle for you.
00:38:43What do you think of Isabel?
00:38:46I think she's exquisite.
00:38:49Do you feel self-conscious?
00:38:51I just want you to be happy.
00:38:54I don't know why you'd choose me instead.
00:38:58Why'd I have to choose? Why can't I have both of you?
00:39:02And there's Blake, too.
00:39:05Well, everyone likes having a pet.
00:39:08Come on, George. You don't always have to be so...
00:39:11I'm just messing with you, OK?
00:39:13I'm just playing. I like Blake. He's a good kid.
00:39:16You know, I'm teaching him how to be a man.
00:39:20What makes a man a man?
00:39:23A woman.
00:39:26Or two.
00:39:46Hey!
00:39:51Where's my journal?
00:39:53I didn't bring it.
00:39:55Why not?
00:39:57You asked me to pack up stuff for a picnic.
00:40:00I didn't think it included your journal.
00:40:03George, let it go.
00:40:07It's none of your business.
00:40:10I'll go get it.
00:40:15Forget it.
00:40:19Forget it.
00:40:21I'm done at the beach. I'm going for a swim.
00:40:33He's in a rare form today.
00:40:40George got upset about his journal, leaves,
00:40:44swims back to the boat.
00:40:47What time would you say that was?
00:40:50Four o'clock.
00:40:52You sure?
00:40:54I'm sure.
00:40:56Anyone who spends days at sea can look at the sun and know the time.
00:41:03So George would often leave mid-afternoon.
00:41:06This wasn't our first trip.
00:41:08One gets quite familiar with patterns.
00:41:11What happened next?
00:41:14Bill and I went for a hike to sober up.
00:41:18And Blake?
00:41:20He stayed at the beach to read the book George gave him.
00:41:25With George leaving so often,
00:41:28were you ever concerned about him just one day disappearing?
00:41:36If we do find him,
00:41:39would you be disappointed if he were dead?
00:41:44You still love your husband, Isabel?
00:42:15Let me tell you a story, detective.
00:42:22Every morning a man wakes up.
00:42:25He makes a bowl of oatmeal for his wife.
00:42:29He cuts up a banana and puts it on top.
00:42:33He puts it on her bedside table.
00:42:37She wakes up.
00:42:40She finds a gesture kind and loving.
00:42:43But after a month, she starts to hate it.
00:42:47She feels obligated.
00:42:50The thing is, she hates bananas.
00:42:54So one evening, she tells her husband,
00:42:58When you make my breakfast in the morning, could you add strawberries?
00:43:03And he smiles and goes to bed.
00:43:06She wakes up, looks at her bedside table.
00:43:10There's a bowl of freshly made oatmeal.
00:43:15And what do you think is on top?
00:43:19Bananas.
00:43:22So you asked me if I love my husband,
00:43:25and the answer is yes and no,
00:43:28because he thinks he gives me what I need,
00:43:30but I asked for fucking strawberries.
00:43:35Now, women are complicated.
00:43:38We like being loved.
00:43:41We need to be touched.
00:43:44But sometimes we need something more.
00:43:48We need to be heard.
00:43:51We need to laugh.
00:43:57George is a beautiful man,
00:44:02and he has great intentions for the most part.
00:44:07He's very broken.
00:44:12Of course I would be devastated.
00:44:32You okay?
00:44:38She wants full custody.
00:44:42Well, that seems pretty harsh.
00:44:45I work too much.
00:44:48I'm sorry.
00:44:51I'm sorry.
00:44:54I'm sorry.
00:44:57I'm sorry.
00:45:01And the alcohol?
00:45:04No, I haven't had a job in four weeks.
00:45:10That's a good start.
00:45:13What do you think about that kid?
00:45:16Well, the addict.
00:45:18I think he's broken.
00:45:21He's broken, agree.
00:45:24But does that make a young man guilty of murder?
00:45:29Maybe he snapped.
00:45:32The question is why.
00:45:35What about the English girl?
00:45:38There was something about her.
00:45:40In her eyes, something mysterious.
00:45:42She almost seemed like she was too innocent.
00:45:44She was like a young girl trying to find her way.
00:45:47Wrong place, wrong time, wrong company.
00:45:50On the flip side, what about George?
00:45:53I mean, what if he's the one in charge, in control?
00:45:56It was his boat. He separated himself.
00:46:00Four people alone.
00:46:04A jealous wife.
00:46:07A man who presumably wants what his mentor has.
00:46:11A young English courtesan and George.
00:46:19I love it.
00:46:21I love these people.
00:46:24Sir?
00:46:26There's a man here. He's a fisherman.
00:46:28He needs to speak with you.
00:46:30They found something in the ocean they think you should see.
00:46:55Anyone hungry?
00:46:58Yeah. I'll get everything ready.
00:47:05I'll help.
00:47:08You guys run along. I'll help George set the table.
00:47:13You need some water. You're drunk.
00:47:17Fuck you, George.
00:47:24Fuck you.
00:47:55Mmm.
00:48:02This quinoa salad is amazing, Blake.
00:48:05Yeah. You've come a long way from burning those steaks, that's for sure.
00:48:09That was one time.
00:48:16So, how often do you go sailing?
00:48:19Oh. Well...
00:48:23What is it, honey?
00:48:25Whenever you have to get some writing done, we spend the weekend at sea?
00:48:29Hmm?
00:48:31Don't let her fool you.
00:48:33We got the boat so we could get away.
00:48:36I promised Isabelle I'd buy her a home in the middle of nowhere, but...
00:48:40for now, this will have to do.
00:48:42So this just happens to be one of the weekends when you're working?
00:48:48Honey, it's not the time nor the place, okay?
00:48:51When is it ever the time or the place to call you out on your megalomania bullshit, George?
00:48:55Enough, Isabelle.
00:48:57Fuck you. I hate this boat.
00:49:00And I'm sick of all your unfulfilled promises.
00:49:02I said that's enough!
00:49:06Yes, Master.
00:49:08May I remind you I didn't force that fucking ring on your finger, okay?
00:49:13You gladly accepted it because you had no other choices.
00:49:17You know, in fact, none of you would have shit without me.
00:49:22So if ever any of you express anything other than gratitude,
00:49:26I'll fucking throw you overboard. Do you understand me?
00:49:30All of you want freedom, yet here you are resenting me
00:49:34as if I'm taking it from you.
00:49:38Is this not freedom enough, huh?
00:49:42Huh?
00:49:47Sorry, excuse me.
00:50:17You the fisherman?
00:50:46I'm a captain.
00:50:49Captain. I'm Detective Park.
00:50:52What do you have for me?
00:50:54Lost and found wanted this, but I insisted a detective look at it.
00:51:11Have a seat, Captain.
00:51:27So what brings you here?
00:51:29You're on the boat.
00:51:31No, silly.
00:51:34America.
00:51:36California.
00:51:38Kuna Beach.
00:51:40George and Isabelle.
00:51:44What brings you here, Mike?
00:51:48I'm just trying to find my way.
00:51:53Pick up a thing or two from the Boulangers.
00:51:57They have the type of life that I see in magazines.
00:52:02Do they?
00:52:07At least on the surface.
00:52:12That's why I like you.
00:52:15Underneath all the layers of crap.
00:52:21You're pure.
00:52:24That's gotta be the nicest insult I've ever gotten.
00:52:32You never answered my question.
00:52:41I love the black sky.
00:52:45The little white dots. It's massive.
00:52:49They're so insignificant.
00:52:52We have no idea what's really out there.
00:52:58It's heroin.
00:53:05You are heroin.
00:53:09Is...
00:53:12You know, it's like the guy who keeps a gun in his safety deposit box.
00:53:19That's his way out.
00:53:25This is my way out.
00:53:30I don't expect to relapse.
00:53:34I don't expect to stay sober.
00:53:42I saw you watching Isabelle and I on the beach.
00:53:50It's okay.
00:53:53I don't mind.
00:54:07I got a routine. I checked my pots in order.
00:54:11The day before yesterday was Tuesday.
00:54:14I was checking my first pot and I saw on my third buoy that there was a boat anchored.
00:54:20And so I figured I'll just check that pot on the way back.
00:54:23And when I came back, the boat was still there.
00:54:27So I figured I'll just check that pot next time I'm out.
00:54:33Sometimes it's best to just let a pot soak.
00:54:37So you found this then today?
00:54:39Yeah.
00:54:41It's protocol to regard the buoys we have at sea.
00:54:47That boat either didn't know what it was doing or it had no regard for my business dealings.
00:54:54I found that book this morning in my lobster pot.
00:55:00In my lobster pot.
00:55:06Well, I appreciate you bringing it in.
00:55:10I brought it in, detective, because it's so perfectly preserved in a watertight bag.
00:55:16It wanted to be found.
00:55:21I've seen this before.
00:55:24This is one of the story plots from his last book.
00:55:28I'm sure you could find three more of those if you ask around the docks, detective.
00:55:35If one is found, you can bet it was George and his big plan.
00:55:42It has his signature all over it.
00:55:47Do you help your husband with his writing, Mrs. Boulanger?
00:55:51Every once in a while, George would get stuck.
00:55:55Get writer's block.
00:55:57Gets too close to it.
00:56:00He told me once it was like walking through fog.
00:56:03Whichever direction you go, however fast you try, it's just white.
00:56:11He would get to his last page and just start from scratch.
00:56:17Throw his book out.
00:56:20I hated that about him.
00:56:23Do you have any idea what that can do to a man?
00:56:28I'm more curious about what that might do to his wife.
00:56:34Do you think I killed my husband?
00:56:44I think something's happened to your husband.
00:56:47And I'm trying to figure out what that something is.
00:56:50So how can you sit here all day long and just stare daggers at me?
00:56:55I'm trying to help you.
00:56:57And you're telling me, after he disappeared, that this is all some part of a master plan by George Boulanger?
00:57:05What I am saying is that if there was a fisherman, and I mean if,
00:57:11then George would know that it was on this man's route.
00:57:15He would study the patterns, the protocols, and he wouldn't ever allow our boat to be anchored there.
00:57:21George doesn't do anything, and I mean anything without forethought.
00:57:29George came back from his swim. He seemed very determined, almost manic.
00:57:35The first time, in having spent time with him, I was actually concerned.
00:57:42He was always so calm.
00:57:46There was a change in him.
00:58:02George came back like he had a plan, a mission.
00:58:11There was something very, very off about him.
00:58:17I thought he might hurt Isabel.
00:58:20Perhaps he'd had enough of her drinking.
00:58:24Or maybe he was going to hurt Cecile and me.
00:58:29He'd had a rough childhood.
00:58:31From what I gathered, he had it in him.
00:58:36Feet on the dead or injured, they have a job to do.
00:58:41They purge the earth of garbage.
00:58:45If you look at the abyss long enough, the abyss looks back at you.
00:58:50Nietzsche.
00:58:53If you look at the abyss long enough, the abyss looks back at you.
00:59:03Every once in a while, George would get stuck.
00:59:06And he would get to his last page and start from scratch.
00:59:12I hated that about him.
00:59:14Anything involving George cannot be easily explained.
00:59:19He's unpredictable, yet completely logical.
00:59:24Control. Manipulation.
00:59:28To be honest, I like games.
00:59:35Without any emotion.
00:59:38Everyone likes having a pet.
00:59:40She calls scavenge.
00:59:42Like a genius. Or a sociopath.
00:59:46She calls scavenge.
00:59:48There was a big bang downstairs in the cabin like someone fell.
00:59:54It got really uncomfortable really quickly.
00:59:57And we were on a boat in the middle of the water.
01:00:00What was he going to do?
01:00:03Most people live a lie. I strive for truth.
01:00:14People live a lie.
01:00:17I am truth.
01:00:20What did they do to you?
01:00:24Lab results for the blood on the shawl.
01:00:28Matches Blake's. Not George's.
01:00:31Nothing on the boat matches George's. It's clean as a whistle.
01:00:34Okay. What about the spot on the boat?
01:00:38Blake.
01:00:41George.
01:00:50What the hell happened to you, George?
01:01:04How did your blood get on the shawl?
01:01:08I guess Isabel was really drunk.
01:01:11After George got back from his swim, he went down into the cabin.
01:01:16Cecile and I stayed on the deck.
01:01:19We heard some commotion. George raised his voice.
01:01:23And there was a loud bang.
01:01:25I got up to go check it out.
01:01:28But by the time that I got to the front end of the cabin,
01:01:32I got hit square in the head.
01:01:36And I must have passed out.
01:01:39Because the next thing I know, I'm waking up bloody,
01:01:43with that shawl around my head and Cecile over me.
01:01:47That's the last thing I remember.
01:01:50I tried to intervene, but George told me to mind my own business.
01:01:54Blake was lying on the floor, bleeding,
01:01:57and Isabel was drunk and she was visibly scared.
01:02:02When I came back from his swim, I found a bottle.
01:02:06He accused me of being drunk.
01:02:09He told me I should go to bed.
01:02:11I hate it when he babies me.
01:02:14I stumbled. I hit my head.
01:02:17And he started to scream.
01:02:19At that point, I reached for something.
01:02:23The compass, maybe.
01:02:28That's the last thing that I remember.
01:02:34George got back to the boat.
01:02:36I noticed Cecile and Blake together at the front of the boat
01:02:39realized he was losing control.
01:02:41Down to drunk Isabel.
01:02:43Tried to put Isabel to bed.
01:02:45She resisted.
01:02:47Someone threw a compass, or not.
01:02:51And Blake got his one way or another.
01:02:56So the shawl and the journal are useless.
01:02:58The compass is just ridiculous.
01:03:00And all we've got are three alibis that all add up.
01:03:06Yeah, this is Bailey.
01:03:18Accounts have all been drained.
01:03:21When?
01:03:22That night, all of the money was transferred
01:03:24into Mrs. Grunlage's accounts.
01:03:27Offshore, untraceable.
01:03:37Okay, we need to get creative.
01:03:40Start thinking like writer would.
01:03:42What grounds us? What is our foundation?
01:03:44George is obviously the foundation.
01:03:46Okay, let's start once again.
01:03:48They wake up. George says good morning.
01:03:51He gives her some flowers, yadda, yadda, yadda.
01:03:53What else? What did George do?
01:03:55He makes a call.
01:03:57Gives a call log. Check his credit card statements.
01:03:59Was she a cosigner on his accounts?
01:04:02Yeah, tell him I need a week.
01:04:04Just need to work out the final details.
01:04:06She'll be good. It's certainly unconventional.
01:04:09George doesn't do anything,
01:04:11and I mean anything,
01:04:14without forethought.
01:04:18Maybe find the money wired.
01:04:20Isabel wouldn't be that obvious.
01:04:25It's so perfectly preserved in a watertight bag.
01:04:29Fisherman.
01:04:31When was the wire made exactly?
01:04:33Was it timed?
01:04:35Who sent it?
01:04:37Why go on a trip with your wife
01:04:39if you're planning on taking off?
01:04:41Maybe he hasn't made his decision yet.
01:04:43Really?
01:04:45Can't rule it out, Bailey.
01:04:47Then what are you thinking?
01:04:49Maybe this is much broader.
01:04:51Okay, you get to the boat,
01:04:53so she'll cast off, and then...
01:04:55It's a beautiful day to sail,
01:04:57except there's a fight below deck between George and Isabel.
01:04:59It's not always about you
01:05:01and what you think people ought to do.
01:05:03Relax, Isabel. What were they really fighting about?
01:05:05Was she mad at him because he wanted to leave?
01:05:07Or was this whole thing a stage performance?
01:05:09I mean, was their marriage really on the rocks anyway?
01:05:11I mean, what if she kills him,
01:05:13throws him over because she's sick of it?
01:05:15The pressure, the writer's block, the bullshit,
01:05:17the unfulfilled promises.
01:05:19I'll try and buy it. Next.
01:05:21The, uh, the compass toss.
01:05:23It's Blake.
01:05:25Look, Blake would do anything for George, or Isabel.
01:05:27And Cecile.
01:05:29She was born to this whole thing to be the one final piece.
01:05:31Is she their alibi?
01:05:33Then there's the beach.
01:05:35All was fine, then George decides to write?
01:05:37He found inspiration, or was this all a part of his plan?
01:05:39So he contacts the fishermen
01:05:41to hand off the journal.
01:05:43He knows that that way, if he disappears,
01:05:45he's got the journal as a good clue.
01:05:47If Isabel's telling the truth,
01:05:49then he did do this on his own.
01:05:53Blake said he never does anything without a plan, right?
01:05:55He staged everything.
01:05:57He is or was a writer, after all.
01:05:59But I don't buy it.
01:06:01They killed him, they throw him overboard.
01:06:03And everything we've heard,
01:06:05all of these stories, they're just that.
01:06:07Just a string of stories.
01:06:09Well-conceived, mind you, but conceived nevertheless.
01:06:11By our three witnesses.
01:06:13Fuck.
01:06:17Our case file should be called
01:06:19The Disappearance of George,
01:06:21with the hands of Cecile, Blake, and Isabel.
01:06:23So if, and I mean if,
01:06:25they did do it,
01:06:27then we have to consider that they're all lying to us.
01:06:31Okay?
01:06:33Let's have one more chat with him.
01:06:41It's a beautiful necklace.
01:06:45Thanks.
01:06:47It's been in my family a long time.
01:06:49My mother gave it to me before she left.
01:06:51She said it reminded her
01:06:53of being wild and free.
01:06:57Take me through the last part of the night
01:06:59one more time.
01:07:01And the last thing you saw.
01:07:03Blake had a...
01:07:05present.
01:07:07And the last thing you saw.
01:07:09Blake had a...
01:07:11pretty nasty cut.
01:07:13I went back to check on Isabel and
01:07:15she asked me to lay in bed with her.
01:07:17I...
01:07:19crawled into bed and held her.
01:07:23The last thing I remember...
01:07:25George standing at the cabin
01:07:27watching us.
01:07:29He was just watching you?
01:07:31What about the morning?
01:07:33Isabel woke me up. She told me that George was gone.
01:07:35We were hoping that he was out on the dinghy
01:07:37or that he'd gone to the beach for a swim.
01:07:39That's it?
01:07:41Yeah.
01:07:43That's the last thing I remember.
01:07:45If George were to disappear
01:07:47would he do it like this?
01:07:51He's refined.
01:07:53There's too many mistakes.
01:07:57I don't know what happened out there but
01:07:59would he just
01:08:01leave us?
01:08:03No.
01:08:05Not his style.
01:08:07You seem to know George pretty well, Blake.
01:08:11More so than his wife and his girlfriend.
01:08:15Have you ever heard
01:08:17of the trials
01:08:19and death of Socrates?
01:08:23Socrates believed
01:08:25that he was the smartest man in the world.
01:08:29The prosecutor asked,
01:08:31Socrates said,
01:08:33I know I am the smartest man in the world
01:08:37because I know
01:08:39that I know nothing.
01:08:43What's the last thing you saw, Blake?
01:08:45George standing over me.
01:08:47And?
01:08:49That's it.
01:08:51Tell me what you remember from this morning.
01:08:55I woke up with a terrible headache, of course.
01:08:57And I went outside
01:08:59to get some fresh air on my face.
01:09:03I noticed Blake passed out.
01:09:07He had his heroin necklace crushed open.
01:09:09There was a bandage on his head.
01:09:11I looked around for George.
01:09:13He was nowhere.
01:09:15I waited up on the deck for him
01:09:17for about an hour or so.
01:09:21I thought maybe he would
01:09:23pop up out of the water
01:09:25like he always did before.
01:09:27But he never did.
01:09:31So I woke up Cecile
01:09:33to help me look for him
01:09:35on the beach or
01:09:37in the water.
01:09:39But he was gone.
01:09:45So we called Harbor Patrol.
01:09:47He's just disappeared.
01:09:49We woke up and he was gone.
01:09:51He's just disappeared.
01:09:53We woke up and he was gone.
01:09:55George has disappeared before.
01:10:01This time's different.
01:10:05He's done this before, yes.
01:10:09But never quite like this.
01:10:13Thank you, Isabel.
01:10:17You're free to leave.
01:10:19One more thing, Detective.
01:10:21If I know George the way I do,
01:10:23then he'll show up
01:10:25in one form or another.
01:10:29George likes to put people in situations
01:10:31and then see how things play out.
01:10:37I guess four people on a sailboat
01:10:39fits the bill.
01:10:43If you'd have told me I'd be
01:10:45sipping champagne on a sailboat
01:10:47with a beautiful woman,
01:10:49I would have thought I'd died of contentment.
01:10:55You just want control.
01:11:05We have a lot to talk about.
01:11:13One day, I want to have a girl like you.
01:11:15And a boat like that.
01:11:19Irony.
01:11:21A basis by which all art exists.
01:11:25George doesn't do anything.
01:11:27And I mean anything without forethought.
01:11:29That's just not his nature.
01:11:33If this trip goes according to my plan,
01:11:35maybe I'll like you, too.
01:11:39I've already learned that life is lonely,
01:11:41Detective.
01:11:43You misinterpreted it.
01:11:45I'm just his casual weekend friend.
01:11:47He isn't my master.
01:11:49Nobody is.
01:11:53We need uncertainty.
01:11:55We need something to need.
01:11:57To possess.
01:11:59To give reason to all this
01:12:01nothingness that surrounds you and I.
01:12:13Cheers.
01:12:21Yeah?
01:12:23Is it working?
01:12:25Check your email.
01:12:27Why?
01:12:29Just checking.
01:12:31Okay, I'm looking at them right now.
01:12:33There's two things worth noting.
01:12:35What are they?
01:12:37First, the attachment in his email.
01:12:39I want you to listen to it.
01:12:41It's a voice memo recorded from his phone
01:12:43and it's dated at 10.36 p.m.
01:12:47You're kidding.
01:12:49What's the second thing?
01:12:51The phone call he made that morning
01:12:53was to J&E Publishing.
01:12:55We're getting a transcript now.
01:12:57But I can tell you this.
01:12:59It was about the delivery of the next novel.
01:13:01The publisher demanded it.
01:13:03Okay.
01:13:09Thank you, Bailey.
01:13:11Good work.
01:13:13Okay.
01:13:23Testing. Testing. One, two, three.
01:13:27Isabelle, are you okay?
01:13:29You think she's gonna throw me overboard?
01:13:31He could hear us right now.
01:13:33I will throw his ass overboard.
01:13:35Blake, what are you thinking?
01:13:37You can't want to do this on our campus.
01:13:39Let's take it back.
01:13:41You know what? I have an idea.
01:13:43We should get rid of him.
01:13:45No.
01:13:47We could. What of all three of us?
01:13:49What of we three?
01:13:51No.
01:13:53I'd leave him if I could.
01:13:55I feel trapped.
01:13:57I could kill him.
01:13:59There's a possibility.
01:14:01I don't know.
01:14:03We're not gonna kill him. We shouldn't be talking about this.
01:14:05I know you think about it, too.
01:14:07I know, yes, but I just...
01:14:09I just...
01:14:11You don't agree with this, do you?
01:14:13Do you?
01:14:15Look, he's...
01:14:17He's like a father to me.
01:14:19Blake, can you help?
01:14:21No. No.
01:14:23You can have the boat.
01:14:25I'm not doing this.
01:14:29Blake.
01:14:31Blake.
01:14:33Blake.
01:14:35Fine.
01:14:37I'll do it.
01:14:39Well, I mean,
01:14:41if he's getting the boat and you're getting the money,
01:14:43what's left for me?
01:14:45I'll give you the world.
01:14:47I just...
01:14:49I don't even know what I want.
01:14:51How are we gonna do that?
01:14:53We don't know where he is.
01:14:55Just do it here.
01:14:57Oh, here he comes.
01:15:09Hey.
01:15:11When you get in tomorrow morning,
01:15:13I'm gonna need you to double-check if there's a Captain Cody
01:15:15on file at the Dana Point Harbor, okay?
01:15:21I think I figured it out.
01:15:27Okay.
01:15:47When I begin a new story,
01:15:49I start with choosing a location.
01:15:51It must have a compelling
01:15:53and suggestive component to it.
01:15:55Time and space need to be defined
01:15:57by its own unique characteristics.
01:16:01I didn't choose to be this way.
01:16:05It is who I am.
01:16:07Always been
01:16:09and always will be.
01:16:17I am
01:16:19a writer.
01:16:21Moving from place to place.
01:16:25Shifting from idea to new idea.
01:16:35Looking for my next book.
