00:04Guys, this glow is not a filter, your girl just got the most incredible Hydro Facial.
00:09Don't forget to tell them about the business meeting disguised as self-care on Dani said
00:14secure the bag and the skin.
00:16Efficiency is everything when you're building an empire, darlings.
00:20Night-night.
00:23We were so relaxed during our facials, we chose a model for the print campaign without
00:28even trying.
00:29Dinner is definitely in order, and the club just switched up its seasonal menu.
00:35Pants here, duck is back?
00:36Say less, I'm in.
00:38Chills.
00:39You know it, but I'm surprised you don't have plans with your Puerto Rican prince tonight.
00:44Since Bill's working late, so is he.
00:46Tomas swears pulling an all-nighter will convince Bill to fast-track him to party.
00:52Actually, you two go on ahead.
00:53Mom, are you sure?
00:54Absolutely.
00:55There's someone I need to see tonight.
00:57Congratulations!
01:02That's what I get for not following through if you were back at the hospital.
01:05You were trying to give me a heads up.
01:07I really didn't try to tell you.
01:09This is no big deal.
01:11We're all grown, right?
01:13And it's no different than us running into each other at work.
01:16And Ted and I had coffee earlier and agreed to put our differences aside.
01:21You did?
01:22We moved on.
01:23We moved on.
01:23Besides, I'm too focused on this beautiful woman.
01:26This is her first time as my dinner guest and I plan on making it an evening to remember.
01:35I am sure you will have a wonderful time.
01:39Oh, I already am.
01:41Well, we are having a special evening of our own, one we should probably get back to.
01:47Well, don't mind us.
01:49Our table is over here.
01:53Peonies?
01:54My favorite flower.
01:56And don't forget the bottle of the club's best champagne.
02:00You outdid yourself.
02:02Shall we?
02:03You first, beautiful.
02:10You know the best part about your dinner date?
02:15Anticipating what happens after dessert.
02:17Oh, my God.
02:19Hey.
02:20...
02:46있naire Tbilda Yardley?
02:48Rough draft for the Bonafide Clement Wright argument and the Lynette Weiss case.
02:58You think you can get it dismissed with this argument?
03:01It's worth a shot. Lynette's work performance was so exemplary, so beyond reproach.
03:07She genuinely believed her bosses were rewarding her with a bonus.
03:10Remind you of anyone?
03:13But you know this didn't have to hit my desk tonight.
03:16Crossing the finish line early makes room for the next race.
03:18Yeah, and burning the candle at both ends leaves you burnt out.
03:21I'm ready to burn into ash if it finally gets me to partner.
03:26Much to learn, you still have young Padawan.
03:29I've already warned you, Tomas, I prefer my partners have lives outside these walls.
03:33My niece chose to build a life with you. Don't be the fool who takes that for granted.
03:38I won't. I know exactly how lucky I am to be with Kat.
03:43But riddle me this, Bill.
03:45Riddle me.
03:46If balance is the mark of a great attorney, why are you here not home with your wife?
03:52Breathe, girl. Whatever it is, we'll figure it out.
03:55How can I?
03:58After receiving something like that in my inbox.
04:03Research, corporate filings. Lynette, these are just standard associate rates.
04:07I don't have that kind of bread.
04:09And I can't afford for Lomas to stop fighting my case.
04:16Look, you asked for my blessing and I gave it, but I don't control the billing department.
04:22But the man you married to does.
04:25You can't brush me off this time.
04:30Lance, what are you doing here?
04:31I had to show you how serious this is.
04:34Maybe now you won't be so damn cavalier about ruining my marriage.
04:47Ooh-wee. These menu items.
04:51Don't let the fancy words intimidate you.
04:54Too late. You're not a price in sight.
04:58Yeah, that's the game with these establishments.
05:00You know, no numbers means, uh, no rules.
05:04And, uh, the cost of the food isn't the point.
05:07It's the indulgences.
05:09Oh.
05:09Well, indulge, I shall.
05:13Hmm.
05:14Hmm.
05:16Hmm.
05:17I really am enjoying myself, Ted.
05:20No, I aim to please.
05:24Talk to me, Shanice.
05:27Okay, this might sound a bit lame, but I feel like, kind of like Cinderella.
05:35And that's a bad thing?
05:37Well, normally, no.
05:38But then I remember my Prince Charming just finalized a divorce.
05:43And once you bounce back and I've helped you get your groove again, I go back to pumpkins and price
05:52tags.
05:52Well, first of all, Cinderella cannot compete with you.
05:57Mm-hmm.
05:58She's not half as intellectually stimulating, nor quick-witted, or sharp.
06:04Mm-hmm.
06:05And she for damn sure don't have these curves.
06:07Mm-hmm.
06:09See that unapologetic attitude?
06:13You're so much more to me than just a rebound.
06:15You've pulled joy back into my life when I thought I had buried it six feet under with my marriage.
06:23You're telling me to relax and enjoy.
06:26Yes.
06:28And yes, you have every right to be guarded.
06:31My life is messy, and some days I barely know how I'm going to handle it.
06:35But what I do know is that you have made my days brighter.
06:39Mm-hmm.
06:40I'm the Cinderella.
06:42And I couldn't be happier.
06:46Well, you handled that like an absolute queen.
06:49Stayed regal and composed, as you always do.
06:53Ted is a well-dressed distraction from my past.
06:57I'm focused on the handsome man sitting in front of me.
07:01The one who keeps giving me impure thoughts.
07:04Mm.
07:05You tell.
07:06My mind keeps replaying a certain kiss you gave me.
07:10It was slow and sweet.
07:13Had me standing there forgetting my own name.
07:16Unquiring minds want to know, do those intrusive thoughts go any further than a kiss?
07:23They just might.
07:25Mm.
07:26Good.
07:28Because I intend for the next kiss to not leave you standing at all.
07:34Chief Hawthorne.
07:35Come to test your luck?
07:37Nice try, but I'm here on official duty.
07:40Oh.
07:40Well, then I'll put away the Cuban cigars and cancel those dancing girls.
07:46I'm kidding.
07:48We're in full compliance here.
07:50Probably the cleanest operation in the DMV.
07:53David, I'm more concerned about your other stream of income.
07:57You want to narrow that down for me?
07:59Red market blood plasma.
08:01Human blood?
08:03I know I've been known to bleed people dry, but I never took that literally.
08:10I hope that's true for the both of us sakes.
08:14Why would you think I would even be in that?
08:17This ring is disciplined, it's profitable, and nearly invisible.
08:24They've got your word.
08:27Yeah, because my son talked me into letting him go undercover.
08:34Joy, he wants to infiltrate this ring selling illegal plasma and build an airtight case against anyone remotely involved.
08:43And I'm glad I'm not involved.
08:45If you haven't even breathed in the direction of this, I need to know.
08:48I want me to protect you from my son.
08:51Or this guy.
08:54Or him from you.
08:58Hey, I rushed out of the house as soon as you summoned me.
09:02I didn't expect my mother and father-in-law to be here, though.
09:05They seem to be more interested in their dates than us.
09:08I hope you slipping out didn't cause any drama with Martin and the kids.
09:12No.
09:12Between my husband's campaign and my daughter's debutante prep, I'm basically background noise.
09:17I doubt they even noticed.
09:18Well, for what it's worth, I appreciate you, Smitty.
09:22Aw, thanks.
09:24I'm just glad you took my tip about the plasma ring seriously.
09:28So, what did the chief say when you laid it out for him?
09:31After some serious arm twisting, he finally came around.
09:35Meaning?
09:36That's who I wanted to meet.
09:37The blood plasma ring is now an active investigation.
09:41And get this.
09:42He's actually gonna let me go undercover.
09:44I am very happy to hear that.
09:45This can change everything for me.
09:47I mean, this could be the case that finally takes me out from under my pop shadow.
09:50And to say thanks, drinks on me.
09:54Okay.
09:55Um, I'll have a vodka soda, please.
10:00You know, there is a better way that you can thank me.
10:05Smitty, you have to let me in on this case.
10:09The firm's business office could set up a payment plan.
10:12What?
10:15That requires actual income.
10:18I'm screwed.
10:23Unless I think there's something drastic.
10:25Drastic?
10:27How?
10:29Hmm.
10:30I'm sure I'll figure out something.
10:32Okay.
10:33Okay.
10:34The firm does take on a limited number of pro bono cases each year.
10:38I could talk Bill into making your case.
10:41One of them.
10:42Ah!
10:46I knew you had my back.
10:48Ah!
10:55Lance, I understand you're upset.
10:58I love my wife.
10:59I won't lose her.
11:01Who says you are?
11:02Sometimes a companion is just what a relationship needs.
11:06Most of Heart Attach's clients are looking to spice up their marriages, not end them.
11:09Everyone knows your marriage is seasoned with an entire bottle of Old Bay.
11:14But maybe all that extra spice is what drove poor Doug to drink himself into an early grave.
11:21Well, I refuse to go down that way.
11:23So, when Lolly tries to book another escort, you are going to turn her down.
11:33I'll do no such thing.
11:36You know, I'm thoroughly confused, Counselor.
11:39You see, I thought that you were looking to make partner and not the unemployment line.
11:46I didn't mean to overstep.
11:47You could have fooled me.
11:48I was merely making a point on how intrusive it is when personal and professional lines get blurred.
11:55I'd rather be judged solely on my work.
11:59I couldn't care less what you want, Navarro.
12:01This is my firm, I set the standard, and I'll use whatever metrics I damn well please.
12:05Got it?
12:08I'll be at my office, boss.
12:20Oh, Danny, what are you...
12:23We never properly celebrated the great news about our daughter's health.
12:27Well, don't you have your boy tour for that?
12:29Where's he?
12:30He is in a photo shoot in New York.
12:35Besides, there is no one else in the world who shares the same belief I do.
12:43Oh, no.
12:46The chicken and the plantains with the buttery rolls, what?
12:49From that Cubano spot you love.
12:52Oh, Daddy.
12:55You know, Hayley would have a stroke of her own if she saw me eating that.
12:58Promise.
13:01Daddy, you didn't have to do this.
13:03I know.
13:09Thank you for helping me find my water bottle.
13:11I'm just all over the place today.
13:13I was starving before, but now I'm in the mood for alcohol.
13:17Well, if you're itching to go play house with Dr. Bae, I won't take it personally.
13:22Would it make me an awful person if I said I wasn't?
13:26Another fight?
13:28Chels, I thought y'all were good.
13:30We were.
13:30We went out to toast being both variant and drama free, but only one of those held up.
13:35I, um...
13:37I ran into my old dealer from my modeling days.
13:42And you popped a pill.
13:44One of those pills?
13:46In front of Madison, girl, what were you thinking?
13:48I wasn't!
13:49But the way she grilled me afterwards, all judgmental, it triggered the hell out of me, Kat.
13:54It reminded me of when Mama Jordana used to police my every move.
13:58Well, when you put it like that, it is kind of messed up.
14:03Like, when did my girlfriend suddenly become my mother?
14:07My marriage is in shambles because of you.
14:11I'd argue your bedroom skills are to blame.
14:14Or tragic lack thereof.
14:16Maybe if you spent half as much time learning your wife's body as you do polishing your driver...
14:21What?
14:24Let go of me.
14:25Not until you listen to reason.
14:32Where I'm from, men who forget their manners regret it fast.
14:44You alright?
14:45The fool didn't hurt you, did he?
14:47Not as much as I hurt his pride.
14:50For the last time, Elon, I traffic in vices, not veins.
14:55So you're an ethical outlaw now.
14:59You know, I seen that same poker face right before you wiped me out.
15:07Talk.
15:08While calling a few favors from City Hall and fast-track those inspections on this so-called fully compliant establishment
15:18of yours.
15:20In four...
15:21In four...
15:23Three...
15:24Two...
15:25Oh, put the damn phone away.
15:28Alright, the truth is I've heard whispers about this blood plasma thing.
15:34Run by a guy that likes to call himself the Impaler.
15:37Make of that what you will.
15:40Yeah.
15:40Operates in and out of the DMV.
15:44Alright.
15:45You got anything else?
15:48Only that you should warn Jacob about what he's walking into.
15:53I've never met the guy.
15:54Keeps a low profile.
15:57But from what I hear, he is not to be underestimated.
16:02Smitty, there's no way I can...
16:04This is the kind of story I've been hungry for since I got back into reporting.
16:08Yeah, I had that influencer scandal and a couple exposes.
16:11But nothing with teeth.
16:12Nothing like this.
16:13This matters, Jacob.
16:15Yeah, and now it's officially under police review.
16:20So you're shutting me out?
16:22I gave you the lead.
16:23No, you gave me a tip.
16:25That doesn't mean you can just walk in here and play Sherlock because you stumbled on something useful.
16:29Stumble?
16:30Don't insult me.
16:31I'm trying to protect you.
16:33You and I both want to bring these criminals down before they kill a hell of a lot of people.
16:38You and I, we made a great team when we were looking into Malone's corruption.
16:42Yeah, until we didn't.
16:43But those were extenuating circumstances. They won't come into play here.
16:48And admit it, without my connections...
16:50I'll still solve this case.
16:51Yes, but how much time will you lose?
16:54If you and I work together, we can dish out real justice and gain some respect while we're at it.
16:59I'm sorry, Smitty.
17:03The answer's no.
17:06Well, I'm glad you want to be more than Mr. Occasional.
17:11You're the first man in a long time I suspect may be worth investing in.
17:17But trust me, when it comes to you, my interest rate is very, very high.
17:23Hi.
17:28Do you know what I am suddenly craving?
17:31What's that?
17:32Oysters.
17:33For their aphrodisiac quality?
17:35I was thinking that...
17:42Everything okay?
17:43I was thinking that oysters are overrated.
17:47And if you want a proper aphrodisiac, we should go back to my place.
18:06Did you see Carlton and Nicole make that grand exit?
18:10I hope our little moment didn't make them uncomfortable.
18:13So what if we did?
18:14Ted...
18:15We have nothing to be ashamed of.
18:20Not yet, anyway.
18:22But the night's too young.
18:24Hmm.
18:25Sounds like you have something specific in mind.
18:29Just a little intimate exploration.
18:32No waiters.
18:34No witnesses.
18:35Then what are we still doing here, huh?
18:44See you later, Uncle Ted.
18:52Mm, you just missed your dad.
18:54Looks like he's thriving in his post-divorce era.
18:57In the same room as my mother?
19:00Ugh.
19:01Well, can we not unpack my family's mess right now?
19:04Your relationship drama is much more binge-worthy.
19:07Well, I'm glad someone's entertained.
19:09For real.
19:11You're not gonna break up with Madison, are you?
19:13God, no.
19:14I'm in love with her.
19:15Well, you know I love your wild and spontaneous side.
19:22But Madison's never seen that version of you.
19:24You went full soft girl the minute you started dating her.
19:29Maybe falling in love made me suppress parts of myself.
19:33I was so focused on being the perfect partner,
19:36I think I lost sight of being authentically me.
19:40I don't know.
19:44What are you thinking about?
19:46A cop and a journalist walk in a bar.
19:49Is this the start of a bad joke?
19:52No.
19:53Our brother-in-laws.
19:55I saw them at the bar and I think they're up to something.
19:59This is about the danger.
20:01I'm not some rando off the street.
20:03I know how to stay safe.
20:05And would Martin want you anywhere near this?
20:07So we're pulling the Martin card now?
20:09No, but you're the anchor for your family, Smitty.
20:12If anything were to happen to you, I wouldn't be able to face Naomi or Martin.
20:15Or any of the Duprees, let alone Samantha and Tyrell.
20:18I'm not your responsibility, Jacob.
20:22And honestly, I don't need your approval.
20:25And what's that supposed to mean?
20:29I'm sorry, but I am investigating this with or without you.
20:34Thanks for coming to my rescue.
20:36Not that I couldn't have handled that misogynistic, arrogant moron on my own.
20:41It never hurts to have a little backup.
20:43Knowing what you meant to Doug and what the two of you did for me,
20:47I know he would have wanted me to look out for you.
20:50Still doesn't feel real sometimes.
20:52Him being gone.
20:55I think you've got to get going.
21:00Take care, Randy.
21:03You too, Vanessa.
21:16Hey, Haley.
21:17Eating solo again?
21:20I'm well used to being a legal widow by now.
21:23I assume you're refilling another all-nighter?
21:27Lynette's case.
21:28Finally making some headway.
21:30We appreciate your diligence more than you know.
21:33Thanks.
21:34I just wish your husband was part of that we.
21:38Are you kidding?
21:40Bill sings your praises all the time.
21:42Then why is he suddenly discouraging me from working late?
21:45He keeps telling me to go out and get a life while he's holed up in his office, neglecting his
21:50own.
21:52He's testing you.
21:54You think?
21:55Yep. Seeing if you'll take the easy way out.
21:58You should go back to work. Prove him wrong.
22:01That's probably it.
22:06Thanks for the perspective.
22:07I owe you.
22:13Yeah, the guy grabbed Vanessa's arm and wouldn't let go.
22:16I had to step in before things got ugly.
22:19Well, but the same son of a bitch that's been calling her.
22:23Intimidation from a distance didn't work, so we made an appearance.
22:26I gave the guy a strong warning.
22:28If you need me, I can send him a stronger message.
22:31Just say the word.
22:31I appreciate the offer, but this just got personal.
22:40You were pretty quiet on the ride over.
22:44Everything okay?
22:46I'm sorry, Carlton.
22:50What's wrong?
22:54When we left the club, I got hit with this wave and I realized I haven't been with anybody but
23:00Ted in decades.
23:06Nicole, look at me.
23:11We don't have to rush anything tonight.
23:15Forever.
23:17We can just sit here, talk, drink wine, discuss your patience, my lousy putting stroke.
23:26Even if you wanted me to leave right now.
23:29After spending the evening with you, I will walk out of here completely satisfied.
23:34Well, there's a problem with that, Carlton.
23:39I won't be satisfied.
23:42Not even close.
23:52Make yourself comfortable.
23:54I will fix us some cocktails.
23:58Okay, you've been living in this hotel long enough.
24:00At least hang up a picture or something.
24:03Oh, is my face that enticing to you?
24:07Boy, stop.
24:09I mean, you don't get tired of these plain old walls.
24:12Nothing has changed since the last time I've been here.
24:14Ah, see? That's where you're wrong.
24:17There's a whole lot different now.
24:19Oh yeah? Like what?
24:20Well, you came here before as friends and bringing me cheesecake and we eat pizza and we watch TV.
24:33And now, we're here on a date.
24:41And the TV isn't even turned on.
24:45But I am.
25:01I'm here now, cuz. Talk to me.
25:05Man, Lynette just cried me a whole river about how she can't afford her legal bill.
25:10Did she ask you for money?
25:12We didn't get that far.
25:13As soon as she mentioned getting desperate, I got spooked.
25:16Next thing I know, I offer to make the whole thing disappear.
25:20So you made the right call?
25:23I think so.
25:24Hell yeah.
25:25You need to do whatever it takes to keep that woman quiet.
25:29And your eyes on the ten million dollar prize waiting for us when Bill meets his maker.
25:35I just hate it's taking so long.
25:38I'm worried my marriage has an expiration date.
25:41Well, you need to do whatever it takes to get your husband's attention back on you.
25:46And give your specialty time to work its magic.
25:53I wish it was possible to go back in time.
25:56Yeah, back to when?
25:57Back when we were married?
25:58Oh, no.
26:00You're welcome.
26:01No, not that far.
26:02Just a couple months before mother was diagnosed.
26:05Before I learned I had inherited this defective gene.
26:08Thank God the girls are okay.
26:10Mm-hmm.
26:11But now that we know that, I get to worry about the big C coming for me.
26:18Well, I think cancer should be afraid of your crazy ass.
26:21I mean, you're the most stubborn, relentless she-devil that I've ever encountered.
26:26Come on, Danny, you don't back down from anything.
26:28If cancer wasn't intimidated by Anita Dupree, what hope do I have?
26:35You're armed with information.
26:37I know, I know.
26:38And because I'm high risk, the doctors can monitor me closely, catch it early, blah, blah, blah.
26:44I've heard that song and dance and honestly doesn't make it any easier.
26:49I know, but I read up on it.
26:52And treatment for early stage breast cancer has a high success rate.
26:56I mean, come on, you can beat this thing, Danny.
26:58If it even ever comes to that.
27:00But at what cost?
27:02Surgery leaves scars.
27:04I wouldn't be the same woman.
27:07And as shallow as it sounds, I've always known that I'm beautiful.
27:12It's why photographers fought over me and designers begged me to wear their creations.
27:18It's also why my husband fell in love with me.
27:21Come on, Danny.
27:23You're talking about Andre here.
27:25He sees the world through the lens of beauty.
27:29So what happens if he looks at me and...
27:33I've lost more than my health.
27:40Seriously, you think you can do this on your own?
27:43I didn't build a career taking no as a final answer, so why start now?
27:49Listen, if anything leaks to the press too early, the U.S. Attorney's Office starts sweating about prejudiced jurors and
27:55it compromises the whole case. I can't have that.
27:57Good thing I'm doing this story freelance. No editor or deadline pressure. Nothing goes public until we say so.
28:05Until I say so.
28:07Fair enough.
28:08So, what do you say?
28:10Partners?
28:16Okay, so who fired up the signal flare that propelled you to leave the house, Smitty?
28:20It wasn't me. Smitty and I just bumped into each other here.
28:23At the gym.
28:25Right.
28:26Interesting.
28:28Where are your gym bags? Or water bottles?
28:32You left them in the locker room.
28:34Oh, and the handshake?
28:37Wait, you haven't seen our signature in-law greeting?
28:41What?
28:49Oh, okay. Yeah, that was cute.
28:52Yep, and as much as I'm enjoying this family bonding, I've got to get home to Naomi, so...
28:55Yeah, and I have to go check Samantha and Tyrell's homework before it gets too late, so...
29:00See you later.
29:03Same normal to me.
29:11Mmm.
29:13As normal as a vodka soda after a workout?
29:18Hmm.
29:20I come bearing peach cobbler.
29:22I even waited for it to come fresh out of the oven.
29:25Since I know how much you love your desserts.
29:30What's this?
29:31Oh, nothing.
29:34I was a klutz earlier.
29:36I banged my arm on the car door.
29:39The way you move in those heels, you couldn't pass for a klutz if you tried.
29:44So why don't you stop covering for the bastard who did this, and tell me what happened.
30:01You satisfied now?
30:03Not even close.
30:05I guess I'll have to try a little harder.
30:07I didn't feel hard.
30:09But break it down more.
30:11Cause you're like...
30:36I can't get enough of you.
30:39Well, talk is cheap.
30:41Now it's time to prove it.
30:44Challenge accepted.
30:522
30:52Make it feel all right.
31:01Light it up your life till it's all in flames.
31:06Better than you ever could.
31:14Look, I may not be fond of the man, excuse me, the boy, but even I have to admit that
31:20Andre doesn't strike me as the kind of snake that would abandon a woman facing cancer.
31:25Well, you are an expert on snakes who would leave their wife, so I'll trust your personal
31:31assessment on that.
31:32And you're right, Andre wouldn't leave.
31:36He would say all the right things and do all the right things, and eventually pity would
31:41replace his desire.
31:43I don't think I could survive being looked at like that.
31:46Well, I think that you're underestimating him and yourself.
31:50Our connection was always physical.
31:52If that goes, what do I have to offer?
31:55What?
31:56I mean, come on, Danny.
31:58What, do you think your beauty was only ever skin deep?
32:02Come on.
32:03I mean, I know firsthand the many attractive things about you.
32:07You think I could rock a shaved head?
32:09Yeah.
32:10Yeah, I do.
32:11Grace Jones may have set the trend, but you'd redefine it and still be the most captivating
32:16woman in any room.
32:18You burn bright, Danny.
32:21You do.
32:21You always have.
32:23And nothing, no man, no illness, no power on this earth will ever dim that light.
32:30You hear me?
32:48If you're looking to put on the brakes, now is the moment.
32:53Is that what it looks like I want?
33:09I guess we've already had a picnic on the carpet.
33:12Might as well find out what other types of fun we can have down here.
33:15Well, let's see just how creative we can get.
33:17Hmm.
33:31The only way you would know Lance grabbed me is if Randy ran his mouth.
33:34He called me the second he pulled the guy off you.
33:37It wasn't that intense.
33:39The man marked you.
33:41Thank God Randy was there.
33:43I had it under control.
33:45The hell you did.
33:47Lance just surprised me.
33:48I thought he was your typical pissed off husband needing to blow off steam and that
33:52he got it out of his system over the phone.
33:54Why he did what he did doesn't interest me.
33:57Why you did what you did does.
34:00What exactly did I do?
34:01You lied to me.
34:02To my face.
34:03Without hesitation.
34:04Because I know how possessive and protective you get.
34:07He just grabbed my arm and for the last time I had it handled.
34:12And you shouldn't have to handle it at all.
34:15That's my point.
34:17And this is exactly the reason why I didn't want you involved in any aspect of my businesses.
34:26Do you know how bad it hurts to watch my so-called devoted cousin play protective of Vanessa
34:31while leaving his own flesh and blood out in the cold?
34:34Huh?
34:35Woman, you are talking out of the side of your neck.
34:37You were just sitting here.
34:38Yeah, sitting here worried about how long it's taking this con to pay off.
34:42I'm doing my part.
34:44Who got you those fake IDs?
34:46The blood for your phony miscarriage?
34:49The tasteless, odorless, deadly potion?
34:53Did all that just fall out of the sky?
34:54Okay, so you tossed me a few crumbs, but it's still my neck out here on the line.
34:59Crumbs?
35:00Yeah.
35:01I did everything you asked me to do and it still ain't enough.
35:05If you want a real piece of this payout, you're gonna need to do more.
35:09Like what?
35:10I double-check Bill's life insurance policy.
35:13Whether he drops dead from heart failure or foul play, your girl still gets paid as long as no one
35:21can trace it back to me or anyone I'm tied to.
35:24You can't get impatient.
35:26Okay, this can't look even slightly suspicious.
35:30Or insurance won't cut the check and law enforcement will be all over it.
35:34Hmm.
35:36Well, it's a good thing you know how to get away with murder.
35:39Because if my tea doesn't hurry up and put Bill in the ground, you will.
35:51No, we have to stop.
35:53No, we were reminiscing about the past just like we always do and this meant nothing.
35:58And Haley definitely cannot know.
35:59Yeah, yeah, of course.
36:00It just stays between us.
36:02Okay.
36:03Okay.
36:03Okay.
36:33Okay.
36:37Okay.
36:46Okay.
36:47You
