00:00:00Good night.
00:00:00Good to see you.
00:00:01Hey.
00:00:02Good to see you.
00:00:05Martha, I'm praying for a successful hip surgery next week.
00:00:09Okay, now don't you worry.
00:00:10Thank you, Pastor Caleb.
00:00:11That means so much.
00:00:14Thank you, Jen.
00:00:14Aw, great to see you, Martha.
00:00:17Hey, good to see you.
00:00:18Good to see you.
00:00:20Alex, thank you for calling Mr. Thompson.
00:00:22Of course, it's my pleasure.
00:00:26Nice to see you, Phyllis.
00:00:30Thanks.
00:00:33You too?
00:00:34Yeah.
00:00:40Hi, honey.
00:00:42What was wrong with Phyllis today?
00:00:44She seemed so distant.
00:00:45Is everything okay with her?
00:00:46I believe so.
00:00:47Okay.
00:00:49Jen, did you get the thanks that I sent you
00:00:51about the importance of folic acid for pregnant women?
00:00:54I did.
00:00:55I did.
00:00:55I'm just looking out for my future grandchild.
00:00:58When are we going to tell everyone?
00:01:00Once we're past the first trimester.
00:01:02I'm so excited.
00:01:04I can't wait.
00:01:05I'm safe, please.
00:01:06I love you.
00:01:09I have to grab some stuff from my office,
00:01:11but I'll lock up and see you back home.
00:01:13Mm-hmm.
00:01:13I've got to run to the drugstore.
00:01:26But it's so late.
00:01:28Don't tell my mom,
00:01:29but the chicken gave me terrible heartburn.
00:01:33You need anything?
00:01:34No, I'm okay.
00:01:36Let's hurry back.
00:01:37I'll be long.
00:01:38I'll be long.
00:01:38I'll be long.
00:01:39I'll be long.
00:01:39I'll be long.
00:01:40I'll be long.
00:01:40I'll be long.
00:01:41I'll be long.
00:01:41I'll be long.
00:01:42I'll be long.
00:01:42I'll be long.
00:01:42I'll be long.
00:01:43I'll be long.
00:01:43I'll be long.

00:01:47I'll be long.
00:01:48I'll be long.
00:01:48I'll be long.
00:01:49I'll be long.
00:01:50I can't believe it.
00:02:16What are you doing here?
00:02:20Oh!
00:02:22No!
00:02:23No!
00:02:24Oh!
00:02:50I can't believe we're really doing this, finally starting our own fashion line.
00:03:03Between your marketing skills and your designs, we're gonna set the scene on fire.
00:03:08Yeah, baby!
00:03:10Nicole, you have been working for years to get to this point.
00:03:14You've designed for others long enough.
00:03:17Now is your time.
00:03:19Well, nothing like a divorce to really kick you in the butt and get you moving.
00:03:24So are you excited to see your cousin this summer?
00:03:28Oh, yeah.
00:03:29Amanda and I have both been so busy the last few years, we've barely seen each other.
00:03:33Hey, you should come visit.
00:03:34It's only a two-hour flight.
00:03:36Well, you might be able to get away from John and the kids for a long weekend.
00:03:41Sit by the lake, soak in some sun.
00:03:46That sounds so good right now.
00:03:47I know, right?
00:03:48Yeah, we can talk about business.
00:03:50Oh, sure.
00:03:51Hey, to you and me.
00:03:53To me and you.
00:03:55To new adventures.
00:04:23Never forget how much I love you.
00:04:38My love, you're all I think of every minute of every day.
00:04:44And I swear to you I'm leaving her.
00:04:47We need to finally be honest with everyone.
00:04:50She's going to be furious, but we'll weather that storm together.
00:04:54Always XOXO.
00:04:57Hmm.
00:04:59Wonder who left this behind.
00:05:12Hey there.
00:05:14Oh, I'm sorry.
00:05:15We don't mean to interrupt.
00:05:16Oh, no problem.
00:05:17I was just unloading some stuff.
00:05:19Uh, I'm Caleb.
00:05:20This is my wife, Jen.
00:05:21Hi.
00:05:22We live not far from here.
00:05:23Just a block down.
00:05:24Oh, Nicole, I'll be pleased to meet you.
00:05:26Hi.
00:05:27I'm just renting the place for a little summer getaway.
00:05:29My cousin Amanda and her husband Tom live next door.
00:05:32Oh, yeah.
00:05:33We know Tom and Amanda.
00:05:34It's a small town.
00:05:36Well, I'm a pastor at Faith of Hearts.
00:05:38It's the local ministry.
00:05:39He's also the coach at the high school, too.
00:05:41Oh, Amanda's a part of the congregation,
00:05:43so we all know each other pretty well.
00:05:45Oh, great.
00:05:46So, where are you from?
00:05:47Uh, New York City.
00:05:48How exciting.
00:05:49Well, this place is pretty quiet.
00:05:51A big change from New York, I bet.
00:05:53Well, you should join Amanda one Sunday for a circus.
00:05:57Yeah, maybe.
00:05:59Well, anyway, well, let's get back to it.
00:06:01But, hey, we are just so excited to see somebody finally moving into the house.
00:06:05It was empty for, what, six months now?
00:06:07Yeah, it really seemed like it.
00:06:10Oh, I found a love letter left behind in a closet.
00:06:14Really?
00:06:15Love letter?
00:06:16I mean, I assume you knew who lived there before me.
00:06:18You did?
00:06:19Yeah.
00:06:20Uh, my friend Phyllis lived here.
00:06:23Yeah, Phyllis passed away a few months ago.
00:06:26Oh.
00:06:27Oh, God.
00:06:28Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:06:29I didn't realize.
00:06:30Really?
00:06:31Maybe the letter belonged to her?
00:06:32Well, actually, three or four different families lived in this house over the past decade,
00:06:37so I guess any one of them could have left it behind.
00:06:40Who knows?
00:06:41Anyway, please don't hesitate to reach out if you need anything at all.
00:06:45We're neighbors now.
00:06:46Yes, please.
00:06:48Will do.
00:06:49And really, though, you should think about joining us one weekend for a service.
00:06:51We're non-denominational, and we're open to everybody.
00:06:54I will definitely consider it.
00:06:56No pressure.
00:06:57Bye.
00:06:58We'll see you on.
00:07:02Your mom's here.
00:07:14Yeah.
00:07:15Looks like she probably let herself in without asking.
00:07:18Again.
00:07:19I know, sweetie.
00:07:20She's been stopping by a lot.
00:07:22I think she's just lonely since Dad's passing.
00:07:24I completely sympathize.
00:07:25I just wish she'd call first.
00:07:29There we go.
00:07:30Nice and hot.
00:07:32Mom, you really didn't need to do all of that.
00:07:37Really, you didn't, Daddy.
00:07:39Nonsense.
00:07:40You two are always so busy, and I have nothing but time on my hands these days.
00:07:45I sauteed extra vegetables for you to have tomorrow.
00:07:51I worry that you don't eat healthy enough.
00:07:54I noticed that someone was moving into Phyllis's old house.
00:07:57Yeah.
00:07:58A nice lady.
00:07:59I think she's only here for the summer.
00:08:01She's a cousin of Amanda from church.
00:08:05I can't believe it's been almost six months since Phyllis passed away.
00:08:09I still can't wrap my head around what happened to her.
00:08:13I'm gonna take a shower.
00:08:15Is she okay?
00:08:20Yeah, I think it's just hard to see somebody moving into her best friend's house.
00:08:26Phyllis was always so full of life.
00:08:28And for Jen to be the one to find her body, I mean, that's...
00:08:32It's horrible.
00:08:33Pull yourself together.
00:08:34I'm worried about Jen.
00:08:47I think just between the miscarriage and Phyllis dying, it's just...
00:08:52Yeah.
00:08:53Jen's been through so much.
00:08:58But...
00:09:02At least she has you to lean on.
00:09:04Uh...
00:09:05Hey!
00:09:06Guys, how are you?
00:09:07How's the move in going?
00:09:08Almost done, finally.
00:09:11Where are you two at now?
00:09:12Hey, guys, how are you?
00:09:29How's the move-in going?
00:09:30Almost done, finally.
00:09:32Where are you two at now?
00:09:34Oh, my God.
00:09:34We have had so many delays.
00:09:37It has completely rerouted us all the way through Chicago.
00:09:39So we're just stuck here until our next flight.
00:09:41Ugh, I bet Hawaii was amazing, though.
00:09:43Can't wait to see pictures.
00:09:45It was eventful.
00:09:47You?
00:09:48Ugh, I can't wait to see you.
00:09:50It feels like it's been forever.
00:09:52All right, I'm going to have to go find Tom.
00:09:54He wandered off somewhere.
00:09:57Bye, safe.
00:09:58Remember to freeze your leftovers before you go to sleep.
00:10:13Yes, yes, yes.
00:10:18Mom.
00:10:19What is it, sweetie?
00:10:20I need you to do me a favor.
00:10:22Anything.
00:10:23Can you maybe just call next time before coming over?
00:10:28Did Jen say something?
00:10:29I was just trying to give you guys a nice dinner because you work so hard.
00:10:33And we appreciate it.
00:10:35And we love you.
00:10:36We do.
00:10:38Okay.
00:10:40No more surprise visits.
00:10:42Promise.
00:10:45Hey, I can, I can tell you.
00:11:02Got it.
00:11:02Hey, guys.
00:11:03Nicole.
00:11:04Hey.
00:11:06I'm so excited we get to be neighbors.
00:11:08Yeah, right?
00:11:09And this place is amazing.
00:11:10Thanks again for telling me about it.
00:11:12Hey, Tom.
00:11:13Hey, Nicole.
00:11:14Hey.
00:11:14Hey, Nicole.
00:11:15I'm going to take the bags inside.
00:11:18Let us know if you need it, eh?
00:11:19Will do.
00:11:23Everything okay?
00:11:25Yeah.
00:11:26You know, travel is just really stressful with the crowds, and we have that delay.
00:11:31Sure.
00:11:32Yeah.
00:11:32Well, the vibe here is exactly what I needed.
00:11:35Oh, good.
00:11:36The summers here are so gorgeous, but I'm not going to lie, it took me a bit to get used
00:11:41to the change of pace around here.
00:11:43Everybody is super friendly, though.
00:11:45Yeah, I met Caleb and Jen from down the street earlier.
00:11:48Yeah, Caleb is actually the pastor at a church I go to.
00:11:52Yeah, that's what he said.
00:11:54The community there is pretty welcoming, and Caleb is in Pat to look at.
00:11:58Yeah, I couldn't help but notice.
00:12:02It's good to see you.
00:12:04All right.
00:12:06Have a good night.
00:12:07Okay.
00:12:08Night, neighbor.
00:12:08Bye.
00:12:14You know, you could have been a little nicer to Nicole.
00:12:18Why did you insist on taking this trip if you weren't really serious about rebuilding things
00:12:22between us?
00:12:22Tom, what are you talking about?
00:12:24Of course I'm...
00:12:24If you can't even tell me the name of the guy you were having an affair with, I don't
00:12:28know what there is to talk about.
00:12:33I'm beat.
00:12:35I'll be in the guest room.
00:12:36I'll be in the guest room.
00:12:36I'll be in the guest room.
00:13:06I'll be in the guest room.
00:13:36Morning, neighbor.
00:13:56Morning, neighbor.
00:13:57You're not too shabby, huh?
00:13:59Yeah, certainly not New York.
00:14:00Oh, I'm so glad you're here.
00:14:05You're right. It is so beautiful here.
00:14:07Isn't it?
00:14:09Oh, how are you liking the new place?
00:14:12Do you have enough time to concentrate on your new fashion line?
00:14:15Yeah, I think it's going to be perfect.
00:14:17I really needed to get away from the city to get my creativity flowing for this new collection.
00:14:25What was the deal with the woman who lived there before me?
00:14:28Caleb said she died.
00:14:29Yeah, it was Phyllis. It was really sad.
00:14:33She was an active member in the congregation, and she was murdered outside of a drugstore one night.
00:14:39Oh, my God.
00:14:40They never caught who did it, though.
00:14:42They said it was wrong place, wrong time, mugging gone bad.
00:14:47It rocked the whole community.
00:14:50Yeah, I can imagine.
00:14:52That house stood vacant, though.
00:14:54Until you.
00:14:57I'm really happy you're here, though.
00:14:59What is it?
00:15:09It's Tom and I.
00:15:11Our marriage is kind of on the rocks right now, and we went to Hawaii to try to patch things up.
00:15:18Oh, I had no idea. I'm so sorry.
00:15:24It's fine. It's my fault anyways.
00:15:26How do you mean?
00:15:26You promise you won't judge?
00:15:31Promise.
00:15:35So, um...
00:15:36Remember when I told you a while ago that I had a crush on someone?
00:15:43Oh, yeah.
00:15:44Didn't sound like anything serious, though.
00:15:45That's developed into a relationship.
00:15:53Didn't last very long, but, uh, I was just so guilty that I confessed everything to Tom.
00:15:58I didn't tell him who it was with, though.
00:16:02But Tom just won't stop.
00:16:05I just feel really horrible about the whole thing.
00:16:07Listen, all marriages go through their ups and downs.
00:16:13I mean, I know I went through something similar with my marriage to Jack.
00:16:16We just weren't the same people anymore, but...
00:16:20Sometimes I wonder if I should have tried harder to fix it.
00:16:24So if there's even a little part of you that feels that way, you gotta do everything you can.
00:16:30So when you look back, you'll at least know you gave it your best shot.
00:16:34That's what I intend to do.
00:16:37Good.
00:16:42Well, I am actually on my way to a church fundraising meeting later this afternoon, if you want to tag along.
00:16:52I don't know.
00:16:53Oh, come on! I want to show you off.
00:16:56You're my cool fashion designer cousin.
00:16:58Well, when you put it like that, how could I say no?
00:17:01Yes.
00:17:02All right, let's go.
00:17:03Okay.
00:17:05How about we grab lunch before?
00:17:06On me.
00:17:08Deal.
00:17:08Got our mail at the post office.
00:17:30Here's the power bill.
00:17:31Oh, I don't understand.
00:17:38It just keeps going up and up.
00:17:43Maybe we could do more outreach into the community.
00:17:46Numbers haven't been this low.
00:17:47Don't you think I understand that, Jen?
00:17:51I didn't mean to upset you.
00:17:53No.
00:17:55Hey, wait.
00:17:58What?
00:18:02I'm sorry.
00:18:03I'm just...
00:18:04I'm trying to balance my job at school and the church.
00:18:07I know you feel pressure to keep your dad's legacy going, but maybe we could just move to a smaller location.
00:18:13No, I can't do that.
00:18:15My mom is counting on me to grow my dad's legacy here at this church.
00:18:19We just have to find a way to grow the fellowship again.
00:18:29You know, it's been a few months since the miscarriage.
00:18:33We said we'd try again when...
00:18:35Now's not a good time for that conversation, okay?
00:18:37But we'll talk about it later.
00:18:40When?
00:18:41I don't know when.
00:18:42The summer.
00:18:44Later.
00:18:47I have to get to practice.
00:18:49I'll be back in a few hours.
00:18:55Yes, some of my lifelong friends I've made by coming here.
00:18:59All right, well, as your actual lifelong friend, I'm a little offended.
00:19:03Afternoon!
00:19:04Hi, Hattie.
00:19:05How's it going?
00:19:06This is my cousin, Nicole, the one I was telling you about, who's going to stay with us for the summer.
00:19:11The fashion designer.
00:19:12Mm-hmm.
00:19:12Yeah.
00:19:13I'm Alex.
00:19:14Nicole, nice to meet you.
00:19:14I'm also the church's treasurer.
00:19:17Oh.
00:19:17It's a good group here.
00:19:19Well, we're certainly pleased that you'll be joining us, Nicole.
00:19:22My son, Caleb, is the pastor.
00:19:24Oh, yes, I met him.
00:19:25I live a few doors down.
00:19:27Come on inside.
00:19:27Oh, okay.
00:19:28I made fresh coffee.
00:19:28All right.
00:19:29So how have you been?
00:19:31I'm good.
00:19:31How's that?
00:19:32Oh, he's good.
00:19:33He's just working a lot lately.
00:19:35Nicole, I'm so happy to see you.
00:19:37Oh, well, I'm not sure I have much to contribute.
00:19:40I'm just tagging along with Amanda.
00:19:42Everybody's contributions are appreciated.
00:19:45But what I really need help with is talking to the businesses that gave us gift certificates
00:19:50for previous fundraisers.
00:19:53Nicole.
00:19:56I guess I could maybe help with that.
00:19:59Wonderful.
00:20:01I'm here for one.
00:20:02I apologize.
00:20:03My esthetician was running behind.
00:20:05Have to keep up with my monthly facials.
00:20:08Well, do we have a newcomer?
00:20:11Lacey, this is Nicole, Amanda's cousin.
00:20:14Nicole, this is Lacey Hamilton.
00:20:16I am literally the chairperson of the welcoming committee at the church.
00:20:19We are so pleased to have you.
00:20:22Thanks.
00:20:24Sorry.
00:20:25Sorry I'm late, everyone.
00:20:26Well, son, I see you didn't have time to change or shower.
00:20:30I apologize.
00:20:31Practice ran late.
00:20:32And I didn't want to keep you all waiting.
00:20:34You're fine, man.
00:20:35You're fine.
00:20:36Oh, Nicole.
00:20:38Delighted to see you here.
00:20:40Um, that would be my doing.
00:20:43All right.
00:20:45Let's jump in.
00:20:47Okay.
00:20:48After reviewing our upcoming annual budget...
00:20:58This is our shortfall.
00:21:00We really need to raise this at the fundraiser, if at all possible.
00:21:05Mm-hmm.
00:21:05Uh, really, we're at a critical point in our finances if we want to be able to maintain
00:21:11the ministry at this location.
00:21:12I'm sure with Caleb's leadership, we'll be able to find a path forward.
00:21:16After all, he is getting the Community Leader of the Year award from the city.
00:21:21Mm-hmm.
00:21:21Ooh.
00:21:22Not that my mom is at all biased.
00:21:24See, I thought that was pretty good today.
00:21:31Yeah.
00:21:32I just wanted to thank you again for indulging me.
00:21:34Of course.
00:21:35All right, I'm gonna get myself home and finish setting up my design room before I crash tonight.
00:21:39Okay, well, me and Alex, we should grab lunch sometime, because he is a riot.
00:21:44It was nice to meet you, Nicole.
00:21:45Oh, you too.
00:21:45Oh, she is certainly...
00:21:50She's, uh, definitely something.
00:21:52You know, she divorced her husband last year, and word is she and Caleb were kind of an item
00:21:59in college.
00:22:00Oh.
00:22:00The way she openly flirts with him is just so obvious.
00:22:05It makes meetings like that pretty awkward.
00:22:08Well, for Jen especially, I bet.
00:22:10Well, she donates a lot of money to the church, so there you go.
00:22:14Ah.
00:22:15Just behind me is the location of the death of Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe.
00:22:32Turn.
00:22:32Turn around.
00:22:32I don't know.
00:23:02I don't know.
00:23:329-1-1, what is your emergency?
00:23:54Yes, there's someone in my house.
00:24:03Where have you been, Caleb?
00:24:05Hey, you're up.
00:24:09I couldn't sleep. I went for a walk.
00:24:13At 2 a.m.?
00:24:14Do you think I'm some kind of idiot?
00:24:18Who is it this time, Caleb?
00:24:22You're being paranoid, Jen.
00:24:25I won't let you hurt me again.
00:24:28Do you understand?
00:24:29I'm going to bed.
00:24:34I know.
00:24:35I'm going to bed.
00:24:36What did you learn today?
00:24:36Oh, look.
00:24:37What?
00:25:00Did the police leave?
00:25:09Yeah.
00:25:10No signs of a break-in.
00:25:12Feel kind of silly for calling them now, but...
00:25:15I don't know.
00:25:15I guess it was just some sort of weird noise outside or something.
00:25:19God, it really sounded like it was inside the house.
00:25:22It totally freaked me out.
00:25:24Do you want me to stay here with you tonight?
00:25:26No.
00:25:26No, I'm fine.
00:25:28I'm just getting used to the new place.
00:25:30That's all.
00:25:46You needed that run.
00:25:48Like you needed that walk last night?
00:25:53Caleb, you know you have a closet and it has clothes in it.
00:25:59What are you talking about?
00:26:00It's hot outside.
00:26:02I just think that...
00:26:05Yeah, never mind.
00:26:07What?
00:26:08Say it.
00:26:10You like the attention.
00:26:12You want people to look at you.
00:26:13Oh, don't be ridiculous.
00:26:14I just don't think it's appropriate for a pastor and a local high school coach to...
00:26:20To what?
00:26:20To what?
00:26:21To want to try and stay fit?
00:26:24I gotta get to church and the school.
00:26:26I would suggest in the meantime, maybe not letting your overactive imagination get the best of you.
00:26:31Hey, Nicole.
00:26:42So I was thinking, why don't you come visit the weekend of the 6th?
00:26:46Oh, that would be perfect.
00:26:48John's gonna take the kids on a camping trip that weekend.
00:26:50Oh, good luck, John.
00:26:53We can talk about the logistics of our business launch face-to-face, darling.
00:26:58Sounds good.
00:26:59So how's it been spending time with your cousin?
00:27:02It's been nice.
00:27:04You know.
00:27:05I am worried about Amanda, though.
00:27:07Her marriage is going through a rough patch.
00:27:10Oh.
00:27:12That's weird.
00:27:13What?
00:27:15Nothing.
00:27:15I...
00:27:15I found this letter when I moved in, and I thought I'd put it on my table, but I don't see it.
00:27:21I want to talk about it, Amanda.
00:27:22I've had enough...
00:27:22Oh, God.
00:27:23Speaking of, Amanda, I've got to call you back today.
00:27:25God, please, I want to work on this with you.
00:27:26You know what?
00:27:27If you want to have an actual conversation, let me know.
00:27:30Tom, don't do anything stupid, okay?
00:27:33Tom!
00:27:33Tom!
00:27:52Hmm.
00:28:02Caleb.
00:28:04Amanda.
00:28:05What are you doing here?
00:28:11I'm sorry.
00:28:12I couldn't keep us a secret from Tom any longer.
00:28:19Um...
00:28:19Uh, what?
00:28:22What have you told him, exactly?
00:28:30That I cheated on him.
00:28:32But I didn't say with who.
00:28:34Look, I had to.
00:28:36Tom's not going to stop until he finds out the truth.
00:28:38Damn it.
00:28:39Amanda, why would you say anything to him?
00:28:41Because it was killing me.
00:28:44I had to.
00:28:46What about you?
00:28:47Don't you always preach about the need to unburden yourself and live your truth?
00:28:53Sweetheart, we need to be careful here, okay?
00:28:57If this gets out, it'll destroy us, it'll destroy the church.
00:29:03We need to find a way forward for all of us.
00:29:07What happened between us?
00:29:11It wasn't right.
00:29:13We both needed something emotionally that we weren't getting from our spouses.
00:29:16And we will pray to God for forgiveness and for clarity on what to do next.
00:29:26At least give us time to do that.
00:29:32Okay.
00:29:34Okay.
00:29:34Okay.
00:29:35Amanda, what's wrong?
00:29:50Are you okay?
00:29:51I really need to talk to you.
00:29:53Of course.
00:29:54Just come on in.
00:29:56Okay.
00:29:58I'm scared to tell you everything because I'm just worried of what you're going to think about me.
00:30:01Hey, come on.
00:30:02I'm not going to judge you.
00:30:03Oh, this is a doozy.
00:30:10So, um, the man that I was having an affair with is Caleb, the pastor.
00:30:19Oh.
00:30:21Can't say I saw that coming.
00:30:25Caleb, I got your text.
00:30:29What did you want to talk about?
00:30:31And why did it need to be here?
00:30:33I've been praying for guidance on how to tell you this.
00:30:41What did you do now, Caleb?
00:30:44It may be coming to light soon, so we need to prepare.
00:30:48Tom and I hit our seven-year hurdle, and I started going to him for counseling.
00:30:55And then one night, he kissed me.
00:30:59You went to him as your pastor for guidance.
00:31:04He took advantage of you.
00:31:07That's such a breach of trust.
00:31:09That is wrong on so many levels.
00:31:11Yeah, but I kissed him back.
00:31:13You cheated again, didn't you?
00:31:15As if sleeping with Phyllis, my best friend, wasn't enough.
00:31:24Yeah.
00:31:26I knew about that, too.
00:31:28I'm not stupid, Caleb.
00:31:33I can see what's right in front of me.
00:31:35And then he and I carried on for a few weeks until one day he just pulled back with no explanation or reason.
00:31:44I just feel so used.
00:31:46Was it Amanda?
00:31:48I noticed her whole body language changed around you months ago.
00:31:53And the worst part about this whole thing is that I have to keep going to those meetings.
00:31:59Because Caleb said that if I stop going, it's going to look suspicious.
00:32:03What a pig.
00:32:06And I chose to ignore it.
00:32:09And I prayed that you would find your way back to me.
00:32:15But how many times are you going to tear my heart apart?
00:32:20How many?
00:32:21I'm sick, Jen.
00:32:26I have a problem with other women.
00:32:28And I need help.
00:32:30I know I need help.
00:32:31I can't get better without you.
00:32:34Do you hear yourself?
00:32:37Yeah.
00:32:40When we married, we made a promise to God.
00:32:43Don't touch me.
00:32:44Through sickness and health.
00:32:49I'm nothing without you.
00:32:52I don't have any reason to live.
00:33:01Thank you for listening to me.
00:33:15But I, um...
00:33:16I think I need to be alone right now.
00:33:20Are you sure?
00:33:23Yeah.
00:33:23Tom is out of town for work.
00:33:28And I just...
00:33:29I need to figure out what I'm going to do next.
00:33:34Okay.
00:33:36Call me if you need anything.
00:33:3824-7.
00:33:39Okay?
00:33:40Okay.
00:33:43Whew.
00:33:45Come here.
00:33:46Oh, thank you.
00:33:52Caleb?
00:33:54Lacey?
00:33:56How long you been there?
00:33:57I came in through the back to drop off some donations for the fundraiser.
00:34:00And what did you hear exactly?
00:34:02All of it.
00:34:05I have to say, Caleb, I'm very worried about what will happen to our church.
00:34:09That we worked so hard to build.
00:34:10If and when this gets out.
00:34:16And with your upcoming award reception,
00:34:18a scandal like this would be impossible to recover from.
00:34:25I see.
00:34:27I need you to keep this to yourself.
00:34:30And allow Jen and me time to heal.
00:34:34I won't say anything, Caleb.
00:34:35Because...
00:34:39You must know,
00:34:42I'm still in love with you.
00:34:44Since we were in college.
00:34:47Even the whole time I was married,
00:34:49it's always been you for me.
00:34:52It's the whole reason I joined the church to begin with.
00:34:55Was to get closer to you again.
00:34:57I see.
00:34:58Caleb,
00:34:59why can't you see I'm the only woman that can truly make you happy?
00:35:03What are you talking about?
00:35:06I'll keep what I know to myself.
00:35:08As long as you
00:35:10start to make your way back
00:35:12to me.
00:35:15I can save you from your shameful past actions.
00:35:19I know what a man like you needs to be happy.
00:35:23We can't.
00:35:24Oh, yes.
00:35:26We can.
00:35:26I need for you
00:35:29to make love to me
00:35:31right here
00:35:33and now.
00:35:35Let's go.
00:35:43Uh-huh.
00:35:44Subtitle viejoz
00:35:48Spirul

00:36:01ZPN
00:36:02Oh, my God.
00:36:32Oh, my God.
00:37:02Tom, I didn't realize you were back in town.
00:37:10Yeah, I drove back early.
00:37:14I got here about 30 minutes ago.
00:37:16Is there something I can help you with?
00:37:19Have you seen Amanda?
00:37:20No.
00:37:21She's not in the house, but her car's here.
00:37:23You know, I've tried calling.
00:37:25I've tried texting.
00:37:27Nothing.
00:37:29That's odd.
00:37:31Yeah.
00:37:31I've got a really bad feeling about this.
00:37:36I just...
00:37:37Something feels off.
00:37:39Maybe she's just out walking by the lake.
00:37:41I mean, she told me she does that sometimes.
00:37:42It's 6 a.m.?
00:37:43Let's just go out there and see if she's there.
00:37:51Okay, yeah.
00:37:52Okay.
00:37:52Just give me five minutes.
00:37:54Come on inside.
00:38:09Good morning.
00:38:12You were out late again last night.
00:38:15Where were you?
00:38:16I was at the church.
00:38:18Figured I'd give you some space.
00:38:21Have you thought any more about what we talked about?
00:38:25You make it sound like I'm trying to decide what we're going to have for dinner tonight.
00:38:33I'm going to be sick.
00:38:34Jen.
00:38:41Amanda!
00:38:42Amanda!
00:38:46Amanda!
00:38:50Amanda!
00:38:50Oh, my God.
00:39:04Oh, no.
00:39:05Amanda!
00:39:06No!
00:39:07What?
00:39:08Oh, my God.
00:39:09Oh, my God.
00:39:10Oh, my God.
00:39:20That's it.
00:39:23Nice job.
00:39:24See you at the station.
00:39:28Mr. Barrington.
00:39:30My name is Detective Chandler.
00:39:32I am sorry about your wife.
00:39:36And you are?
00:39:37I'm Nicole Alday.
00:39:39I'm Amanda's cousin.
00:39:41I'm renting the house next door for the summer.
00:39:43We, uh, we found her together.
00:39:48Hmm.
00:39:49Sir, when was the last time you spoke with your wife?
00:39:53I got a text from her last night saying she was going to bed.
00:39:59And you?
00:40:01Uh, she came over to my house yesterday around maybe 5 p.m.
00:40:06And we talked for a bit.
00:40:12Sir, we're trying to figure out exactly what happened to your wife.
00:40:17She fell down the stairs.
00:40:19Right?
00:40:22Yes, sir.
00:40:22She did.
00:40:24But there's some possible inconsistencies with the wounds we found.
00:40:35Inconsistencies?
00:40:37What?
00:40:38You're saying you think there might have been some kind of foul play?
00:40:42I'm just saying we're exploring all possibilities.
00:40:51Do you know of anyone who would have wanted to hurt your wife?
00:40:55What?
00:40:57No.
00:40:59No, Amanda was...
00:41:01No.
00:41:06No, I don't.
00:41:06No.
00:41:07No.
00:41:17All right.
00:41:18We are going to need you to...
00:41:20come down to the station later.
00:41:24And when you're there, I'd like to ask you some more questions, if that's all right.
00:41:30Okay.
00:41:31I'll show myself out.
00:41:40Detective.
00:41:42There's something else that I think you should know, but I hope it's unrelated.
00:41:48I hope it's unrelated.
00:41:50Okay.
00:41:51I didn't want to say it in front of Tom, but Amanda had been having an affair with a man
00:41:58named Caleb Whitley.
00:42:01He's the pastor at her church.
00:42:02And, um, I don't think it ended particularly well.
00:42:12Thank you for telling me that.
00:42:14I appreciate it.
00:42:17Anything else?
00:42:19No.
00:42:20No, that just seemed like something that you should probably know.
00:42:24Look, I'm really hoping what happened to your cousin was an accident.
00:42:31But right now, we can't rule anything out.
00:42:33Do you understand that?
00:42:41If you think of anything else, call me.
00:42:54I'm looking for Caleb Whitley.
00:43:20I'm his wife.
00:43:22I'm Detective Chandler.
00:43:23Is your husband home?
00:43:25Um, he's at work.
00:43:27Is there something I can do for you?
00:43:30Um, one of your neighbors and parishioner, Amanda Barrington, she was found dead earlier
00:43:36this morning.
00:43:40That's horrible.
00:43:43Would you mind calling your husband and having him come down to the station and answer a few
00:43:46questions?
00:43:48Okay.
00:43:49It'd be great if you could come down as well.
00:43:51We're just trying to get to know anybody who knew Ms. Barrington from church.
00:43:56Um, I'll call Caleb now.
00:43:59Hey.
00:44:11How's my favorite medical examiner?
00:44:13Business is booming.
00:44:14Did you have a chance to look at that body yet?
00:44:17Just finished my initial examination.
00:44:19And you're right.
00:44:21There's definitely two points of trauma to the skull.
00:44:25That might have happened in the fall, but gods of her hitting the exact same rock twice
00:44:28with that much force.
00:44:29Yeah, I know.
00:44:31Let's keep the scene locked off.
00:44:33I want to get out there and dig around a little bit.
00:44:35You got it, doc.
00:44:36Let me know what you find, all right?
00:44:38Yep.
00:44:39Babe, I'm so sorry.
00:44:42Where are you now?
00:44:43Uh, I'm back home.
00:44:45I just left Tom.
00:44:47He said he wanted to be alone for a while.
00:44:50God, it's just all so awful.
00:44:55I hope it was an accident.
00:44:57But that detective definitely implied that it could have been done on purpose.
00:45:04If someone did this to her deliberately, I'm not going to stop until they're brought to
00:45:09justice.
00:45:09We did get a hold of your husband.
00:45:17He is coming in.
00:45:22Thank you for that.
00:45:23Sure.
00:45:24So, tell me about your husband's relationship with Mrs. Barrington.
00:45:31Oh, uh, well, she was a parishioner at our church, so, of course, he knew her.
00:45:36There was another parishioner from your church.
00:45:37Um, Phyllis Anderson, didn't she also turn up dead about seven months ago?
00:45:44Um, that was a robbery gone wrong, though.
00:45:52How did your husband get along with Mrs. Anderson?
00:45:54Good to see you, Phyllis.
00:45:58Thanks.
00:45:59Caleb did his best to get to know all the people at our church.
00:46:05How about you?
00:46:07Did you get along with both women?
00:46:09Hi.
00:46:10Hi.
00:46:11Of course I did.
00:46:13Do you know of anyone, anyone at all, who would have had ill will towards her?
00:46:18Her to Amanda.
00:46:19But, I can't imagine my animal would want to do that.
00:46:23Although.
00:46:27Yes?
00:46:28I suspect her and her husband were having problems.
00:46:31I drove by her house the other day and saw her arguing with him.
00:46:34Seemed pretty heated.
00:46:35Oh, I can't say enough good things about Caleb.
00:46:41He helped me out last year during my time of need.
00:46:46In what way?
00:46:48Pastoral counseling during my divorce.
00:46:51He really got deep with me.
00:46:53Dealt with some things that needed to be handled.
00:46:56In fact, I was with him most of the night, planning an upcoming church fundraiser.
00:47:05Look, I just want to know what happened to my wife.
00:47:09Oh, my God.
00:47:10Oh, my God.
00:47:17Mr. Barrington, were you having issues in your marriage?
00:47:19If you can't even tell me the name of the guy you were having an affair with,
00:47:22I don't know what there is to talk about.
00:47:24Amanda had an affair.
00:47:27She wouldn't tell me who with.
00:47:29I imagine that would make you very angry.
00:47:35Wasn't happy about it.
00:47:39Sorry, do I need a lawyer?
00:47:41I don't know.
00:47:42Do you?
00:47:44I'm expecting the autopsy results in about three days.
00:47:47That's going to let me know whether this was an accident or something else.
00:47:52Mr. Barrington.
00:47:55Don't.
00:47:56Are you sure you don't know who was sleeping with your wife?
00:48:05I would like to talk to my lawyer.
00:48:07Thank you, Pastor, for coming in.
00:48:10Of course.
00:48:13I was devastated when I heard what happened to Amanda.
00:48:18She was just an incredible person.
00:48:22We're planning a small memorial for her at the church tomorrow.
00:48:25I see.
00:48:28May I ask where you were last night?
00:48:30Uh, I was at the church.
00:48:32Damn it.
00:48:33Amanda, why would you say anything to him?
00:48:36I had to.
00:48:37Planning for an upcoming fundraiser.
00:48:40Alone?
00:48:41No.
00:48:42I was with Lacey.
00:48:43She's another one of the parishioners.
00:48:45Lacey?
00:48:47How long have you been standing there?
00:48:48I came in through the back to drop off some donations for the fundraiser.
00:48:52And what did you hear exactly?
00:48:54All of it.
00:48:56Pastor, were you having an affair with Amanda Barrington?
00:49:00Amanda had been having an affair.
00:49:04I'm sorry?
00:49:05With a man named Caleb Whitley.
00:49:08He's the pastor at her church.
00:49:10Is that something someone said?
00:49:11I don't think it ended particularly well.
00:49:15Excuse me.
00:49:17But nothing could be further from the truth.
00:49:32I'm so sorry about Amanda.
00:49:36I was just talking to the detective.
00:49:38I know.
00:49:39Caleb.
00:49:39Uh, what are you talking about?
00:49:43Amanda told me about the affair.
00:49:45I told the detective, too.
00:49:47Thought he might be interested in that little piece of information.
00:49:49Nicole, your cousin?
00:49:52She was going through a lot, personally.
00:49:56Now, she might have been confused, or she could have been...
00:50:00You can save the concerned pastor routine.
00:50:02Amanda wouldn't lie about something like that.
00:50:05Not to me.
00:50:06Where were you the night she died?
00:50:08Nowhere near, Amanda.
00:50:13I was planning a fundraiser with Lacey.
00:50:16Excuse me if I'm not buying what you're selling.
00:50:18You better hope her death has proved an accident.
00:50:22I'm watching you, Caleb.
00:50:26Amanda and I always had each other's backs.
00:50:28I'm not going to abandon her now.
00:50:50I am so upset.
00:50:52I just couldn't believe it about poor Amanda.
00:50:56I mean, first Phyllis, now this.
00:50:57What are you doing here, Hattie?
00:50:58I came to check on Caleb to see how he's handling it.
00:51:01Well, obviously, his car isn't here.
00:51:03He's down at the police station with the detective on the case.
00:51:06Caleb was having another affair.
00:51:08What are you talking about?
00:51:09With Amanda.
00:51:11He confessed it to me weeks ago.
00:51:12He swore to me after Phyllis he wouldn't stray again.
00:51:16Yeah.
00:51:16Don't act surprised, Hattie.
00:51:19These women, they just throw themselves at him.
00:51:22He's so handsome.
00:51:23Stop making excuses.
00:51:25I can't do this anymore.
00:51:27What are you talking about?
00:51:29You think about this.
00:51:31Remember your vows.
00:51:34You only worry about the church, its legacy, and what people think.
00:51:39You don't care about the reality of the situation, or who Caleb hurts.
00:51:46Get off my property, Hattie.
00:51:47Get off my property, Hattie.
00:52:17Caleb.
00:52:23Did you tell the detective everything I told you?
00:52:26That we were together last night?
00:52:28Of course.
00:52:29I told them everything you told me to say.
00:52:31Word for word.
00:52:32What exactly did you tell them?
00:52:35Well, I told them how we were working on the plans for the fundraiser.
00:52:40How amazingly kind you are, of course.
00:52:42I didn't mention anything about you having sex with her, or me.
00:52:46Hmm.
00:52:47I don't see why you're so concerned about having an alibi anyway.
00:52:50It's not like you'd ever do anything to hurt Amanda, right?
00:52:54Well, I'm gonna need you to do something for me now.
00:52:58What?
00:52:59Start laying the groundwork to eventually leave Jen, and then be with me again.
00:53:05So simple, Caleb.
00:53:07Hmm.
00:53:08Simple?
00:53:09Why are you making this so complicated?
00:53:11Well, find a way to make the divorce look like Jen's fault.
00:53:14The whole church will sympathize with you.
00:53:16They follow you, not her.
00:53:17Can't you see?
00:53:21We're meant to be together.
00:53:23It's destiny.
00:53:26You're insane.
00:53:28Hmm.
00:53:29No.
00:53:31I'm a woman in love.
00:53:32Taylor.
00:53:54Taylor.
00:53:57I'm so glad you're here.
00:54:00Of course, hon.
00:54:00Where else would I be?
00:54:03Come on.
00:54:06Are you sure you even want to stay here anymore after everything that has happened?
00:54:10Come back to New York, Nicole.
00:54:13Be with your friends.
00:54:15I really feel like I gotta be here for Tom right now.
00:54:21How's he holding up?
00:54:24Devastated.
00:54:26I mean, I know their marriage was going through some dark times, but I can tell he really loved her.
00:54:31You don't think he had anything to do with it, do you?
00:54:37No.
00:54:38No, I don't think so.
00:54:42Although there was this woman, Phyllis, who lived here before I did.
00:54:46She got murdered six months ago.
00:54:50Wait.
00:54:52You don't think they're connected, do you?
00:54:55I don't know.
00:54:57They're having a memorial service tomorrow at the church for Amanda.
00:55:01Are we going?
00:55:03For sure.
00:55:04I want to see how everybody's acting.
00:55:07Especially that pig of a pastor.

00:55:55They have changed our family for the better.
00:55:59They chose to love us.
00:56:00They didn't have to.
00:56:01They chose us.

00:56:57Bye-bye.
00:56:58God, help me.
00:57:21Thank you for being here, everyone.
00:57:25We come together in times of joy,
00:57:28and in times of sadness.
00:57:35This is a time of sadness.
00:57:44Amanda was a bright light among us.
00:57:48Her warm, loving spirit was...
00:57:54She, uh...
00:57:57Amanda was...
00:57:59I'm sorry.
00:58:01She, uh...
00:58:03Amanda...
00:58:05It's a difficult time for our entire congregation, including me.
00:58:12Amanda meant a lot.
00:58:18She meant a lot to all of us.
00:58:23Alex, thank you for coming.
00:58:25Of course.
00:58:26Still in shock.
00:58:28Yeah, we all are.
00:58:30Thank you, Pastor Caleb.
00:58:31We all needed to be reminded of God's love, especially today.
00:58:38Yeah.
00:58:46Tom, if there's anything we can do, I'm here, okay?
00:58:51Thank you, Caleb, for, uh...
00:58:55Thanks for this.
00:59:04Detective, thank you for coming.
00:59:06My pleasure.
00:59:07I've got this feeling I'm going to be coming around a lot in the coming days.
00:59:09You look so handsome today.
00:59:20As always.
00:59:28Excuse me.
00:59:29Where are you going?
00:59:29I don't feel well.
00:59:35Something's wrong with Jim.
00:59:36I'm not, Mother.
00:59:39Mom?
00:59:49Can you drive?
00:59:51I'm going to stay here and talk to the pastor.
00:59:54Are you sure?
00:59:55We can wait.
00:59:56Yeah, no, it's not far.
00:59:58I'll walk.
00:59:59I'm sure.
01:00:09Keep it together, Caleb.
01:00:25Who is it?
01:00:26It's Nicole.
01:00:27Nicole, how can I help you?
01:00:40You might want to shut the door.
01:00:44Okay.
01:00:50Again, I was sorry.
01:00:52No, just stop.
01:00:53Stop it.
01:00:53I've known men like you, Caleb.
01:00:58Good looking.
01:01:00Charming.
01:01:01Everything on the outside looks good.
01:01:03But on the inside, you're a narcissist who cares only about his public image.
01:01:10Mm-hmm.
01:01:11I don't trust you, Caleb.
01:01:13No?
01:01:14I don't trust your ministry.
01:01:16Let me ask you this.
01:01:20What kind of pastor sleeps around on his wife?
01:01:25Paceless lies.
01:01:28You know, I've been thinking about that letter.
01:01:30The one that Phyllis probably left behind.
01:01:32The one that mysteriously vanished from my house not long after I told you about it.
01:01:37I bet it was you that wandered into my house the other night and took it.
01:01:42Ridiculous.
01:01:43Are you having an affair with her, too?
01:01:45Hm.
01:01:46You have a very active imagination.
01:01:49Do I?
01:01:50Died under mysterious circumstances.
01:01:53That's what they said about Phyllis, too, right?
01:01:56I will not rest until I find out exactly what happened to Amanda.
01:02:03And I pray for that resolution as well.
01:02:07Somehow I doubt that.
01:02:11Have a nice day.
01:02:12Home as soon as I can.
01:02:35Love you.
01:02:36Love you.
01:02:36Everything okay?
01:02:43Not really.
01:02:45John's come down with the flu, and apparently the kids are running amok.
01:02:49Do you need to go home?
01:02:51I'm sorry, Nicole.
01:02:53It's fine.
01:02:54You go be with your family.
01:02:56I'll be okay.
01:02:57Promise.
01:02:57The good news is, I talked to our investors about giving us a few extra weeks to present
01:03:04our collection.
01:03:05And?
01:03:07They were fine with it.
01:03:09I told them about Amanda and everything that's happened.
01:03:14That's a relief.
01:03:19Nicole?
01:03:19I just, I can't stop thinking about that love letter I found.
01:03:24If Caleb really was having an affair with Phyllis, and she also died mysteriously, just like
01:03:30Amanda, I wonder if Caleb's handwriting would have matched the writing on that note.
01:03:36And if it does, maybe he's the one who broke in here to retrieve it.
01:03:41Wait.
01:03:42So, if you saw a copy of the pastor's handwriting, do you think that you would be able to match
01:03:54it to the note by memory?
01:03:58Yeah.
01:03:59Yeah, I think so.
01:04:00It was pretty distinctive.
01:04:03You've just given me an idea.
01:04:12Mom?
01:04:20What are you doing here?
01:04:23I've been struggling with how we should handle this situation.
01:04:30Okay.
01:04:32Uh, are you going to tell me what's going on, or just keep me in suspense?
01:04:38Today's the day you're presented with your Community Leader of the Year Award.
01:04:45Yes, I remember.
01:04:48Do you want to get to the point, Mother?
01:04:50You're obviously upset.
01:04:52You've been very careless, Caleb.
01:04:56Just like your father could be.
01:04:58I had to clean up his messes, too.
01:05:03Meaning?
01:05:04I know about the affair with Amanda.
01:05:08I notice everything.
01:05:12I see the signs.
01:05:14I became an expert, after all.
01:05:17Mom, it's not...
01:05:18No.
01:05:18I was the one that convinced Jen to stay.
01:05:22After you seduced Phyllis, her best friend.
01:05:26I was trying to save you.
01:05:28Your marriage, the church.
01:05:30But you didn't learn your lesson, obviously.
01:05:33I overheard Nicole confront you.
01:05:36I have this under control.
01:05:39I will not let you destroy the ministry or our family's name.
01:05:46I will not allow it.
01:05:49Do you understand me?
01:05:50So keep your pants set while I go take care of all of this.
01:06:00Look, I know you want to know what happened to Amanda.
01:06:18But promise me that you'll be careful, Nicole.
01:06:23Please.
01:06:23I hear what you're saying, and I promise you I will watch my back.
01:06:29But I gotta find out if Caleb's handwriting is a match to that note.
01:06:34Okay.
01:06:40Travel safe, okay?
01:06:42Okay.
01:06:42Nicole.
01:07:02Hey, Tom.
01:07:03Hi.
01:07:04I was just headed to that reception at the church, but I wanted to check in on you first.
01:07:11See how you're holding up.
01:07:13Mean anything?
01:07:15Uh, no.
01:07:17No, thanks.
01:07:17I'm, uh, I think I just need some more time to myself.
01:07:23Reached over for Amanda in bed this morning.
01:07:25Hey, why don't we go out to dinner tonight?
01:07:30You and me.
01:07:32I think it'll do us both some good to get out.
01:07:35What do you say?
01:07:38I don't know.
01:07:39Can I, uh, can I let you know?
01:07:42Yeah, of course.
01:07:44Okay.
01:07:45Yeah.
01:07:48Nicole.
01:07:50Yeah?
01:07:50Yeah.
01:07:53I really appreciate all your support here.
01:07:56And Amanda, she...
01:08:01Amanda really loved you.
01:08:05She really loved you.
