00:00:00Satsang with Mooji
00:01:00Baby, it's okay, you're dreaming.
00:01:30Come on, sweetheart, we've got to go.
00:01:53I'm going to miss my flight.
00:01:54Okay, you seem tense, you didn't have that dream again, did you?
00:01:57No.
00:02:00I'm just anxious about the meeting.
00:02:04I've got to make this guy talk, or else my story sucks, Griff will never buy it, and
00:02:08there goes my internship.
00:02:09Just be firm, don't let him intimidate you.
00:02:11It's easier said than done, the guy's tough.
00:02:13You know intimidation is not exactly my strong suit.
00:02:16Hey, you're smart, kiddo.
00:02:18I know you can do it.
00:02:19Come on.
00:02:23All right, remember, nerves are stealing.
00:02:37I'll try.
00:02:38Don't try, just do it.
00:02:43Be a good girl, honey.
00:02:44I'm going, I'm going.
00:03:08We're proceeding to taxi onto the runway, and this time we ask you to fasten your seat
00:03:24with the next pair to take off.
00:03:38Hi.
00:03:39Hello.
00:03:39How are you?
00:03:40I'm fine.
00:03:42Looks like it's going to be a short flight.
00:03:45Not short enough, as far as I'm concerned.
00:03:47They never give us enough leg space.
00:03:50You're right about that.
00:03:52So what brings you to San Francisco?
00:03:53A story on a city bigwig who's been implicated in a huge sex scandal.
00:03:57How exciting.
00:03:59Who do you write for?
00:04:00We're a magazine.
00:04:01Great articles.
00:04:02You live in L.A.?
00:04:03Yeah.
00:04:04Do you?
00:04:05I now spend most of my time up north.
00:04:07We have a home in Napa Valley.
00:04:09I love the weather.
00:04:11I have space to think, ride my horses.
00:04:15It's so hard to focus in L.A.
00:04:17My husband, though, he prefers the house and by the beach.
00:04:21God, it must be beautiful, though, right now.
00:04:23Storybook green, right?
00:04:26I went to Catholic boarding school up there.
00:04:28Nothing but green pastures and cows.
00:04:31Oh, we replaced the milk with the wine, darling, a long time ago.
00:04:35How funny.
00:04:36I went to Catholic boarding school myself.
00:04:38You didn't.
00:04:39You know, my husband always teases me.
00:04:43He says that that's why I'm so screwed up.
00:04:46Four years without boys.
00:04:47My husband would agree.
00:04:49And you know what?
00:04:51They're probably right.
00:04:52Your electronic parking card shows you didn't check out of the garage until midnight that night.
00:05:04Sometimes I work late.
00:05:06Well, can you tell me why Beverly was at your office the night of the rape?
00:05:08She wasn't at my office.
00:05:11I saw her waiting at the bus stop, out of my window.
00:05:13That was never in the police report.
00:05:15There was never a bus scheduled for that line that night.
00:05:18How could you have been waiting for a bus that was never scheduled?
00:05:21I'm going to try to say this in a nice way.
00:05:24About something that could get extremely ugly.
00:05:27It would be very wise of you not to proceed with your inquiries.
00:05:33Good.
00:05:34And we agree.
00:05:35There is no storm.
00:05:37You'll excuse me, Miss Barton.
00:05:47Taxi?
00:06:04I have a reservation for Mrs. Barton, please.
00:06:13Elizabeth?
00:06:14Oh, my God.
00:06:15What are you doing here?
00:06:16My flight was canceled.
00:06:18The fog.
00:06:19Mine, too.
00:06:19Isn't this crazy?
00:06:21Bob, this is the woman I was telling you about.
00:06:23You met on the way out.
00:06:24Pleasure.
00:06:26Nice to meet you.
00:06:27Join us for a nightcap?
00:06:30Oh, come on.
00:06:31Live a little dangerously.
00:06:32It'll be fun.
00:06:34Why not?
00:06:42Excuse me.
00:06:48I didn't realize your husband was joining you up here.
00:06:51Bob?
00:06:51Oh, he's not my husband.
00:06:56Oh, come on, darling.
00:06:57Don't say you didn't figure it out.
00:06:58Writers always figure it out.
00:07:00Wouldn't you say, Bob?
00:07:01You're interested in character, aren't you?
00:07:03Oh, yeah.
00:07:05And I'm interested in dessert.
00:07:08Real decadent.
00:07:10And sweet.
00:07:11So, what are you going to do to me tonight?
00:07:29That's kind of a strange question, because when you see it, you'll probably...
00:07:33Good night.
00:07:36Good night.
00:07:36I'll call you back in L.A.

00:11:16i disagree i think it works bull
00:11:18it's very obvious that you backed off elizabeth you should have dug in you should have nailed that
00:11:26lawyer man right there at the end you should have just confronted him and taken him down
00:11:32no guts no story
00:11:35the thing is the thing is your wife's on two

00:12:31my sauce came out great
00:12:43any reaction to the story no
00:12:48actually yes he said he didn't like it
00:12:55griff
00:12:59what'd he say he told me not to give up my day job
00:13:10happy now it's not the end of the world lizzie
00:13:13maybe not for you
00:13:26maybe not for you
00:13:30hello
00:13:49hello is this this is an san francisco last week
00:13:53yeah sure how are you good i just called to say hi i see how you were doing i really enjoyed our time
00:14:01together so did i it was fun so how is everything great how's bob oh behaving himself though not with
00:14:10me and i've been really curious about something i mean i know that it's none of my business so feel free to
00:14:15tell me to shut up at any time but i have to ask have there been others like bob god no
00:14:22never what do you think i mean i can't actually believe i'm doing something like this
00:14:27never in my wildest dreams
00:14:29i wasn't looking you understand it just happened
00:14:31is it serious i don't know i'm confused you know i come from a very sheltered protected background
00:14:39oh god i can't believe i'm telling you all this
00:14:42she tries to resist but the chemistry's too good it's like some weird kind of fate but of course she's
00:14:48torn with that nagging guilt she's a good girl and good girls don't indulge in affairs she married too
00:14:54soon she didn't sow any wild oats hey i know a lot of women who married number one and they're doing
00:14:59just fine this isn't about right or wrong it's about her reactions to what's going on the drama the
00:15:05deceit the guilt the self-loathing but then there's the raw passion the thrill the whole crushing experience
00:15:12i think that's what the special issue is about sexual discovery this is a woman in transition coming
00:15:19out of her cocoon what's the school anatomy of an affair a first timer the virgin adulteress
00:15:30the virgin adulteress
00:15:42a virgin adulteress
00:15:43that's good very good maybe even excellent
00:15:55catholic girl goes astray but not too far very nice but elizabeth the terrain infidelity
00:16:03adulterous sexual activity isn't that foreign territory for you you may need a passport
00:16:08i think i can handle it you do yes i do well i hope so for your sake because if you don't have
00:16:16a rough draft in two weeks you may want to consider a new source of employment put that cigarette out
00:16:25look just do the best you can and don't worry about it okay i loved your presentation you were so
00:16:30great yeah yeah how'd you get that woman to open up i don't know it's weird it's almost like she wants to
00:16:36do you believe it's possible to have an affair and not have it affect your marriage i don't know i
00:16:42mean she seems to think so and she's living it god laura she seems so free i don't believe it i mean
00:16:48it's bad karma you put that kind of energy out there and it's bound to come back and hurt you
00:16:53you know you should call my psychic calia she's so in tune yeah yeah i'm serious
00:16:59i don't know but you know it sounds a little kinky kinky yeah why is it okay for a man to have
00:17:09an affair and a woman has an affair and it's kinky well maybe i don't want you getting any ideas
00:17:17this is not about me lizzie don't start that again i told you i haven't been with anybody else since we've
00:17:23been married god you're so insecure i wasn't talking about you i was talking about her you know it would
00:17:33be really nice if you were a little supportive from time to time don't taste it needs garlic
00:17:43it's probably her now here stir my sauce hello why don't you tell me how you met
00:17:53this is great anne i can't believe how much we covered look let's meet at the beach tomorrow
00:18:03i'll see you then oh god yes i'm so nervous so where did it finally happen the miramar on santa monica
00:18:15yes we got a room at the hotel we had lunch sent up with champagne it was absolutely divine he was so
00:18:22sweet and adoring and the sex it was amazingly great god i don't mean to be so blunt but i never
00:18:28had sex like that i just didn't know it existed so it was like you mean there's this
00:18:36you know the sweetest thing he sent a bouquet of roses to the house with a card the next day
00:18:41this is just so strange remember how you were telling me about how you first met bob staring at
00:18:51the movies and having coffee afterwards and now making love for the first time at the miramar and
00:18:57getting roses and a note later it's almost exactly like it happened with eric and i
00:19:03no you're serious yes
00:19:08i think it's time we had that fabulous bottle of wine that we brought
00:19:18here you go either you and i are incredibly alike or that's an awfully bizarre coincidence
00:19:24cheers two coincidences coincidences beth i hate to say this but i've decided to like it screwing
00:19:39someone else besides my husband this is just so hard to believe darling look you and i were the good
00:19:46girls prim and proper married the first man we slept with love and happiness forever after but that was
00:19:53then this is now and i'd like to think that i'm a bit of a late bloomer and that i have a whole lot
00:19:59of experience ahead of me i can do absolutely anything with him do you know how great that is
00:20:04to be like that with someone whenever you want whatever fantasy you want you make it sound so amazing
00:20:10eric makes me feel like a woman that's good like a sexy woman sexy
00:20:27sure whatever that means do you play games well well we used to eric can be passionate
00:20:35i could go home dressed up and i know it would drive him crazy eric can take me in his arms and
00:20:41make love to me for hours and i know he really appreciates me eric and i are what are you doing
00:20:48what's gotten into you do you like it lizzie i don't need that to find you attractive
00:21:09i told you i'm perfectly happy with eric all right admit it you're curious you don't even have your
00:21:14tape recorder on you're asking me all this stuff now because you want to know not professionally
00:21:20personally i thought this was going to be about sex but it's not it's about disobedience and empowerment
00:21:28to disobey the rules others made us live by and living with what works for us for me but tell me
00:21:35truthfully you don't feel guilty making love to bob you can live with yourself
00:21:41truthfully there's no dirty feeling no sense of betrayal
00:21:50it's not living with myself it's living for myself and as for betrayal
00:21:56my husband forged that one a long time ago he's chosen to get disinvolved so i get involved elsewhere
00:22:05look having an affair is having an affair you go you do it and then you go home everything stays
00:22:11exactly the same imagine that you met someone new handsome as hell and just looking at it made you
00:22:19hot and circumstance made it so you could go to bed together
00:22:26yes you could no one would know you could do it in your life would stay exactly as it is
00:22:33yes you could do it and love every minute of it i couldn't i wouldn't
00:22:46but what if you could
00:22:59do
00:23:13Hi, we're not home. Leave a message.

00:29:59So like I'm in this, you know, total funk.
00:30:02The acting is like completely back burner.
00:30:04I'm like Bill Holden in Sunset Boulevard, right?
00:30:07And I'm in New York doing my usual Saturday night at the Pierre Bar.
00:30:11The night man floats me a double Cointreau because he knows I like the French stuff, you know, impresses the ladies or whatever.
00:30:18Says he's got a guy from L.A. who wants to meet me.
00:30:21It's a hush-hush thing, but he smells money, right?
00:30:24So right away, I mean, you know, I'm interested.
00:30:27Anyway, listen to this, by the way.
00:30:29Bob, the newcomer from New York with a haunting presence, turns in a truly inspiring performance.
00:30:37Cool.
00:30:38So that's all.
00:30:39Anyway, so I meet the dude.
00:30:41Which is what I call him, the dude, right?
00:30:44And he lays out the gig for me.
00:30:46Which is all I gotta do is I have to initiate an affair with this broad, right?
00:30:51But he's gonna give me all the particulars that I need to, like, properly seduce her.
00:30:55No shit.
00:30:56Seriously.
00:30:57I mean, he's giving me all the accoutrements.
00:30:59I'm talking a car, upgraded threads, everything, right?
00:31:02So he shows me a picture, because that's important.
00:31:03I gotta see what she looks like, right?
00:31:05And she looks good.
00:31:05I mean, she's almost a babe.
00:31:06It's like, you know, I mean, she's a little bit sedate looking around thinking, this is
00:31:10no problem.
00:31:11Totally doable, nailable thing.
00:31:13Plus he got you the lead in the play, right?
00:31:15God, I love this city.
00:31:18Cockroached a budding star in two months.
00:31:20Mm-hmm.
00:31:20What sort of extension are we talking about?
00:31:32Maybe just a week.
00:31:35You're in trouble, aren't you?
00:31:36No.
00:31:38Then let's have it.
00:31:39Look, I just need a few days to verify some things that she told me.
00:31:43Don't try to bullshit me.
00:31:45What's the real reason?
00:31:46I need to nail my ending.
00:31:48That's all you had to say, Elizabeth.
00:31:53I'll give you one week, because I respect your honesty.
00:31:57Elizabeth.
00:32:00Which one of these would you go with?
00:32:16Pussy.
00:32:18That's our choice.
00:32:25So why didn't you tell me you're an actor?
00:32:29Well, because whenever you say that, people think you're a flake.
00:32:33Especially if you're not famous.
00:32:35What's on your mind?
00:32:37Well, I was interviewing Anne for this story I'm doing, and now she's disappeared off the
00:32:42face of the earth.
00:32:44Tell me about the salad.
00:32:45What does that have to do with me?
00:32:47I mean, because if you think I can hook you up with her, you're wrong.
00:32:51Anything personal would really help?
00:32:53No, I see.
00:32:54Anne was...
00:32:54She was real good at keeping her life extra private.
00:32:57So are you saying that you're having a relationship with a woman and you don't know the first thing
00:33:03about her?
00:33:03How is that possible?
00:33:05No, I'm not saying that at all.
00:33:06I know plenty.
00:33:07I know all kinds of things.
00:33:09I know, like, uh, what her favorite foreplay is.
00:33:14I know how she trembles just before she comes.
00:33:18See, I know lots of things about her.
00:33:19Pretty private stuff.
00:33:20Just not stuff that's right for you or for your little interview.
00:33:22How about her husband?
00:33:23Did she ever mention him?
00:33:24Maybe where he works?
00:33:26What he does for a living?
00:33:27Nope.
00:33:27Wouldn't have a clue.
00:33:28I'm sure she told you, really.
00:33:29It was no strings attached.
00:33:30Maybe she just, you know, had her fill and thought, enough's enough.
00:33:35Hmm.
00:33:35The last time I spoke to her, she told me that she was falling in love with you.
00:33:40She sounded very excited.
00:33:44It's bullshit, okay?
00:33:46She was in love with her husband, not me.
00:33:49She had great sex with me.
00:33:51It wasn't love.
00:33:53I think she knows the difference.
00:33:55Well, she's wrong.
00:33:57She didn't sound wrong.
00:33:59Anne could sound in a lot of ways, okay?
00:34:01She was very practiced in the art of deception.
00:34:03I have a feeling you're not bad at it yourself.
00:34:08Only when I'm paid to be.
00:34:10I'm an actor.
00:34:17That's nice.
00:34:19She made quite a point of a Catholic boarding school that she went to.
00:34:23Graduated at the top of her class.
00:34:25What's so funny?
00:34:26A Catholic boarding school at the top of her class?
00:34:28Come on.
00:34:29No, no, no, no.
00:34:31Anne didn't finish high school.
00:34:32Are you sure?
00:34:35I'm positive.
00:34:35I'm positive.
00:34:35I don't know.
00:35:05I don't know.
00:35:35I don't know.
00:36:05I don't know.
00:36:06I don't know.
00:36:07Please.
00:36:08Enough.
00:36:09Enough.
00:36:10Enough.
00:36:11Save.
00:36:12What are you trying to save?
00:36:17I figured it out.
00:36:19God, you scared the hell out of me.
00:36:24What are you doing here?
00:36:25How did you know where I live?
00:36:27It wasn't hard to find.
00:36:30What did you figure out?
00:36:33Something about Ann?
00:36:35No.
00:36:36About you.
00:36:37See?
00:36:38First, I thought to myself, what is this nice, happily married woman doing writing about extramarital
00:36:48affairs?
00:36:49It doesn't add up.
00:36:50I get paid to be interested.
00:36:53I don't buy it.
00:36:54This isn't about Ann or her affairs.
00:36:58This is about you.
00:36:59The portrait of the writer emerging from darkness.
00:37:02It's ridiculous.
00:37:03Is it?
00:37:04You're not looking for Ann.
00:37:05You're trying to find yourself.
00:37:06Look, you don't know anything about me.
00:37:07Yeah?
00:37:08Indulge me.
00:37:09I mean, you have taken great care to hide your life inside this narrow little comfort zone here.
00:37:24It is so obvious what kind of world you've created for yourself.
00:37:29You are not the successful writer that you should be.
00:37:32Why is that?
00:37:34Because trying to protect ourselves doesn't work.
00:37:37It never does.
00:37:38Life is not about trying to be safe and comfortable.
00:37:42Life is about one thing.
00:37:43It's about living.
00:37:44To be truly alive.
00:37:46Isn't that what you want?
00:37:48To finally be free?
00:37:50I understand that.
00:37:53You see?
00:37:54I get it.
00:37:55I get you.
00:37:57And he doesn't.
00:37:59Does he?
00:38:00Your husband, I mean.
00:38:02Of course he doesn't.
00:38:04Because he is not like us.
00:38:06He's not an artist.
00:38:09Sometimes I get so scared.
00:38:12I know you do.
00:38:14But it's calling you.
00:38:16And you've got to follow your heart.
00:38:18Because you don't want to live with regrets, do you?
00:38:23Hmm?
00:38:24No.
00:38:25Hello?
00:38:26Me.
00:38:27I got the Bigelow account.
00:38:28That's great, honey.

00:39:37this sounds dangerous time to back off i can't back off i have to do this i know you probably
00:39:44wouldn't understand try me life is not about being safe it's not about pretending it's about
00:39:50seeing things for what they really are like not pretending we're not having problems with our
00:39:54marriage and then i didn't find a book in the closet from another woman obviously a relationship you

00:51:38Yeah, I'm gonna fax through the rap sheet on this guy.
00:51:39He's a seasoned criminal with several felonies on his record.
00:51:41You should be real careful around him.

00:51:55Eric, where are you?
00:52:23Where are you?
00:52:25Where are you?
00:52:30San Francisco Hilton.
00:52:32Eric Barton, please.
00:52:33He checked out this morning.
00:52:35What do you mean, he checked out?
00:52:37Are you sure?
00:52:38Yes, positive.
00:52:39Okay.
00:52:43He checked out.
00:52:48Where are you when I need you?
00:52:49Where the fuck are you?
00:52:53The fuck is mine!
00:52:55The fuck is mine!
00:52:56Hi.
00:53:20Hey.
00:53:20Can you help me?
00:53:22Sure.
00:53:23A friend of mine may have purchased something here.
00:53:25Can you make any sense of this?
00:53:27I can make out a false name, Jennifer.
00:53:29But that's about it.
00:53:30Last name is too smart.
00:53:32Well, is there any other source where it might be?
00:53:35Not on the first-time buyer.
00:53:37Nice-looking lady, though.
00:53:39Great legs.
00:53:41Can you tell what she bought?
00:53:44Sunny 8mm video camera with an automatic timer.
00:53:48She wanted that.
00:53:49For the camera?
00:53:50Sure.
00:53:50Security, surveillance, kinky stuff in the bedroom.
00:53:55No, just kidding.
00:53:56She didn't seem the type.
00:53:57He did.
00:53:58He?
00:53:58Yeah, the guy with her.
00:54:00Tall, dark, kind of Italian.
00:54:02Passing himself off as an actor.
00:54:05Great excuse not to work if you ask me.
00:54:08Funny, I just called.
00:54:09His order is ready.
00:54:11What order?
00:54:12Made some dupes for him.
00:54:13Copies of a video.
00:54:15It was a rush order, I guess.
00:54:17Something important.
00:54:18I get it for you, but it's not here.
00:54:21We found it out.
00:54:22He's picking it up directly from the lab downtown.
00:54:30Tell them I sent you.
00:54:34Hey, come back anytime.
00:54:35I'll get you a deal on a video.
00:54:37Honestly, I don't see one decent photograph of the whole bunch.
00:54:49Well, I'll tell you what.
00:54:52Please, just one more day.
00:54:53I'm on to something, I swear.
00:54:55Hold on a second.
00:54:57Elizabeth, I need real proof.
00:54:59I'm getting it.
00:55:02Well, leave it here.
00:55:03I'll give it a read.
00:55:04Meet me across the street at 530 and leave your cell phone number.
00:55:06No, not you.
00:55:09Well, honestly, just the thought of looking at him again makes me nauseous.
00:55:13Forget about it.
00:55:13I'm pulling you off the project.
00:55:36Griff, Elizabeth.
00:55:50I'm on to something.
00:55:53I'm going to be late for our 530, but I'll be there.
00:56:15I've got to have the guts to know you're ending, Beth.
00:56:17I've got to have the guts to know you're ending, Beth.
00:56:18Okay.
00:56:19Okay.
00:56:19Okay.
00:56:19Okay.
00:56:19Okay.
00:56:19Okay.
00:56:19Okay.
00:56:20Okay.
00:56:20Okay.
00:56:21Okay.
00:56:21Okay.
00:56:21Okay.
00:56:22Okay.
00:56:22Okay.
00:56:53I think that this changes it.
00:57:07No way.
00:57:10Hey, I fulfilled my end of the deal, man.
00:57:13You can't just decide that now.
00:57:15I'm not going to let you do this.
00:57:20Hey, fuck you, man.
00:57:21We had a deal.
00:57:24The girl is fine.
00:57:27Listen, I'm watching this thing right now.
00:57:30Listen, I've got the original and I've got the only copies, okay?
00:57:34So what's it going to be?
00:57:35Look, if she becomes a problem, I'll take care of her personally.
00:57:41Uh, I'm going to call you right back.
00:57:47Hey!
00:57:47Elizabeth!
00:57:50Elizabeth!
00:57:51Ada!
00:57:51Elizabeth!
00:57:51Let's go.
00:58:21Look out!
00:58:30Mom?
00:58:51Elizabeth, God, are you all right?
00:59:04My story just got bigger.
00:59:06The woman I've been looking for, I think she's dead.
00:59:08Yeah, my God, are you all right?
00:59:12I'll check in later.
00:59:14Nailing the ending of your story does not mean the end of you, Elizabeth.
00:59:17Do you have proof?
00:59:19I'm this close.
00:59:21I'm gone, child.
00:59:27What have you gotten yourself into?
00:59:30Lizzie?
00:59:31Honey, where are you?
00:59:33Lizzie?
00:59:33Is he at the theater yet?
00:59:44He's scheduled to go on tonight, but he isn't here yet.
00:59:58Lizzie, I've got to get that tape.
01:00:00I know that's what Ann was trying to say on my answer.
01:00:02How do you know he has it?
01:00:04Because I snuck over to this place earlier and I saw him watching it.
01:00:06Lori, I've got to get in there, get it, and get out.
01:00:08You're in way over your head on this.
01:00:10You should be careful.
01:00:11I know.
01:00:12But like Griff says, no guts, no story.
01:00:15Lori, I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:17If he shows up here, just make sure he doesn't leave.
01:00:23Be careful.
01:00:25I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:28I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:30I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:32I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:33I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:34I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:35I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:36I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:37I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:38I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:39I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:40I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:41I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:42I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:43I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:44I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:45I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:46I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:48I need you to buy me some time.
01:00:49Okay, thanks. See you later.
01:01:19Bob?
01:01:26Dude, I must...
01:01:44No.
01:02:14No.
01:02:44Eric.
01:03:14Oh, my God.
01:03:26Oh, come on, pick up.
01:03:39Pick up.
01:03:40Griff.
01:03:41You're not going to believe what I've just seen.
01:03:46What's wrong?
01:03:47Are you all right?
01:03:49Elizabeth, what's wrong?
01:03:51Elizabeth, where are you?
01:03:53Oh, shit.
01:03:54He's still here.
01:03:56He's here.
01:03:57Who?
01:03:58Pick me up at the market on Ocean.
01:04:00Please hurry.
01:04:02ghost.
01:04:07Oh.
01:04:08Oh.
01:04:09Oh.
01:04:10You're out.
01:04:11Oh.
01:04:12Oh.
01:04:13Oh.
01:04:14Oh.
01:04:15Oh, my God.
01:04:45You're not going to believe this video, what's on it, what I saw tonight.
01:04:58Have you spoken to anyone else about this?
01:05:00No one. I mean, I haven't had time. I just came from there.
01:05:02Where?
01:05:03Bob's.
01:05:04Bob?
01:05:05Bob was murdered tonight by, oh, my God.
01:05:08Oh, my God, by, I think, Eric, but I don't know.
01:05:10I mean, it just happened so fast.
01:05:12Murdered?
01:05:12Well, just relax a little bit. I'll take you somewhere where you'll be safe.
01:05:25Are you all right?
01:05:29Where are we going?
01:05:31I just have to make a little detail. I hope you don't mind.
01:05:34Well, where are you taking me?
01:05:42I'll have a little surprise for you, Elizabeth.
01:05:46Did I ever tell you that I hate surprises?
01:05:49You can run, but you surely cannot hide.
01:06:04What is destined to be, shall be.
01:06:08Please, my love.
01:06:24What is it?
01:06:25It's for you.
01:06:26I can't.
01:06:27Oh, I think you can.
01:06:29I think we can.
01:06:31Can what?
01:06:32Can do whatever we want.
01:06:34Whatever you want, Elizabeth.
01:06:36We think we know life.
01:06:37We think we know people, but we don't know anything.
01:06:40The only thing I am certain of is my loving you.
01:06:43I never realized I was capable of so much love.
01:06:46Nor of doing what I have unfortunately done.
01:06:48What circumstances have forced me to do.
01:06:50Ann was an exceptionally gifted woman at making people believe what she wanted them to believe.
01:07:00Everyone thought she was such a devoted wife.
01:07:03Wave?
01:07:04Oh, don't worry about that, Elizabeth.
01:07:06The hate in our marriage stemmed from something much more substantial than mere infidelity.
01:07:10She wanted to destroy me.
01:07:11She wanted to destroy all my dreams once she realized that I was no longer in love with her.
01:07:16And she would have taken everything from me.
01:07:18She was as manipulating and cold-blooded as they come.
01:07:22She was peeled as a man.
01:07:24But let's not dwell on the morbid.
01:07:26Would you like to have some strawberries?
01:07:31Please.
01:07:34Our life together would be rather extraordinary from now on.
01:07:37Together we will conquer the literary world.
01:07:41For starters, a five-year contract with a magazine starting at a 650 level.
01:07:46Car, of your choice, of course.
01:07:48How would you like to have a house in Malibu and a penthouse in New York City and a table of your own at Elaine's?
01:07:54You go to all the best places.
01:07:56You and I will travel the world together.
01:07:59Right.
01:08:00Anything your heart desires, you will have.
01:08:06Have you forgotten that I have a husband?
01:08:08Oh yes, a husband that started this whole dirty thing.
01:08:12The husband that cheated, the husband that lied.
01:08:14The husband that didn't believe in your dreams, just cared about your paycheck, didn't give a damn about you and your life.
01:08:20Yes, your husband.
01:08:21Yes, your husband.
01:08:24I've been considering this.
01:08:31Your precious husband.
01:08:33How will you explain, Anne?
01:08:47Apparently, Anne and her lover are on an extended vacation in Barbados.
01:08:52Probably will not be returning, and that, of course, would devastate me, but I will carry on.
01:09:00What about Bob?
01:09:02Sometimes a man's checkered past catches up with him, which requires a hasty departure, usually to a faraway foreign country.
01:09:09You certainly have thought of everything.
01:09:14Yes, I have.
01:09:17Let's say I've edited down to a walkable piece.
01:09:23The bottom line, Elizabeth, is I love you.
01:09:27I know the lifestyle that you want, and I can give you everything you want.
01:09:32There is, however, one thing I must insist upon.
01:09:37We take care of Eric.
01:09:39Take care of?
01:09:40We'll do it together.
01:09:42That will seal our bond of love.
01:09:50I hope you don't mind.
01:09:52I've invited a friend of yours.
01:09:55Eric, thank you for joining us.
01:09:58Please.
01:10:00I'm sure you know the young lady on the staff journalist.
01:10:04Please have said.
01:10:05So you actually made the big time, aren't you, Miss Staff Writer?
01:10:10Oh, yes.
01:10:12Elizabeth is destined for big things indeed.
01:10:17Congratulations, honey.
01:10:18Yes.
01:10:19I was just telling Elizabeth about the apartment.
01:10:21Fascinating story of how I came about finding this place.
01:10:26I thought this place was Anne's.
01:10:28So did Anne.
01:10:29Little did she know she was sublimed from me.
01:10:31Eric, I believe you know my wife, Anne.
01:10:33Do you not?
01:10:33Uh, possibly.
01:10:39Oh, possibly.
01:10:40Honey, I thought for sure you and my wife were having an affair.
01:10:46All right.
01:10:49Lizzie, this guy's out of his mind.
01:10:51Let's get out of here.
01:10:54Now, does that help refresh your memory?
01:11:03Remember those long, lingering afternoons at the Miramar Hotel with my wife?
01:11:09Or do you need to sit down and collect your thoughts?
01:11:12Put your pathetic ass in this chair.
01:11:21What is this bullshit?
01:11:22I don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
01:11:24See, he doesn't know anything.
01:11:28He doesn't.
01:11:33Zip it A, Anne's diary.
01:11:37You may read a few passages.
01:11:38It's August 19th, just several months ago.
01:11:43Eric made such a funny joke today about that nitwit wife of his, the writer.
01:11:48The joke was, was she more inexperienced at making love or writing?
01:11:54God, did we laugh.
01:11:56You're lying.
01:11:57I never said that.
01:11:58It's all right here.
01:11:59No!
01:12:00No, you're lying.
01:12:01He's lying.
01:12:02Is this lying?
01:12:07All right.
01:12:08It happened before we met, I swear.
01:12:13Is that being a devoted husband, Eric?
01:12:16I think it's disgusting.
01:12:18Making fun of your lovely wife's dreams.
01:12:21I knew.
01:12:23I knew all along.
01:12:28All right.
01:12:28I had just about enough out of you, you fucking psycho.
01:12:33God!
01:12:34Death!
01:12:34The hell is wrong with this man?
01:12:42Why do people not believe when someone has a gun, they will use it?
01:12:46I have your wife and a gun, and I will use the gun again.
01:12:50You okay?
01:12:51I'm sorry.
01:12:52You okay?
01:12:52Get the gun!
01:12:53Get the gun!
01:12:53Get the gun!
01:12:55Get the gun!
01:12:56Get the gun!
01:12:59Get the gun!
01:13:01Honey? Honey, you okay?
01:13:19Oh, God.
01:13:21Oh, fuck.
01:13:31Oh, my God.
01:13:32My dad.
01:13:36Is he dead?
01:13:54I'm a writer now, a successful single writer.
01:13:58Eric and I tried to work it out, but it was obvious there was nothing left to work out.
01:14:03Of course, Griff wasn't dead.
01:14:05Two weeks ago, I heard that he'd escaped from the sanitarium.
01:14:09They told me that he said that he lived only for me, and it's funny because I almost envy that.
01:14:14I wish I felt that way about someone.
01:14:16Who knows? Maybe someday I will.
01:14:20Great book.
01:14:27Thanks for coming.
01:14:32And yes, I am writing another one.
01:14:36This is exciting. The turnout is so great.
01:14:39I'm so proud of you, Lizzie.
01:14:41I'll get you some water.
01:14:42Okay.
01:14:42Congratulations, Elizabeth.
01:14:46You've been able to satisfy a lot of people's fantasy.
01:14:50How's that?
01:14:52You shot the boss.
01:14:54Oh.
01:14:56I'd love to take you to dinner. I'm in town for a couple of days.
01:15:00I don't think so.
01:15:02It's pressed towards killing me.
01:15:04Thanks for the offer.
01:15:11Now that is one good-looking man.
01:15:14Why didn't you accept?
01:15:16Laurie, I'm not interested in anything casual.
01:15:20And even the most innocent little affair can end in disaster.
01:15:25I suppose you're right.
01:15:32You can run, but you surely cannot hide.
01:15:39I'm sorry.
01:15:41Are you all right? What happened?
01:15:43Yeah, I'm fine.
01:15:46Can I sign that for you?
01:15:48Yes, please.
01:15:49Please.
01:15:49Please.
01:15:49Please.
01:15:49Please.
01:15:49Please.
01:15:50Please.
01:15:50Please.
01:15:51Please.
01:15:51Please.
01:15:52Please.
01:15:52Please.
01:15:53Please.
01:15:53Please.
01:15:53Please.
01:15:54Please.
01:15:56There you go.
01:16:06What is destined to be, shall be.
01:16:25you
01:16:55you
01:17:25you
01:17:55you
01:18:25you
