00:00:03Mrs. Black, once you take the medication, the medically assisted death sequence will begin.
00:00:09I've given you your life back, Byron. We're even now. I hope hell's willing to take me.
00:00:17That way, when you reach heaven, we'll never have to see each other again.
00:00:22Will you mourn me when I'm gone? Why am I asking? You won't.
00:00:27You don't even care that I'm sick. You let me die in your heart five years ago.
00:00:40On the day of the accident, Gloria had been drinking for hours, and she was driving drunk.
00:00:49You ungrateful little bitch! All that we asked is that you tell one little lie in court.
00:00:57For Gloria. And you couldn't even do that!
00:01:02Mom, stop! Don't blame Celeste. Gloria drove drunk. She killed someone. That's on her.
00:01:10And you know that Celeste's parents died by a drunk driver.
00:01:14How could you ask her to lie in court?
00:01:17My baby girl is going to be behind bars for three years.
00:01:22I never meant to hurt Gloria, but that kid was 18.
00:01:26I couldn't... I just couldn't lie.
00:01:29Don't worry. We've already paid the victim's family.
00:01:32Millions in compensation. They agreed to sign the letter of settlement.
00:01:35We'll just talk to Gloria today.
00:01:38Tell her to keep her head down.
00:01:39I should be out in all time.
00:01:41I'll apologize to Gloria.
00:01:42I'll make it up to her when she gets out. I promise.
00:01:46Mr. Black.
00:01:48I'm so sorry. There's been an incident.
00:01:51Your sister, Gloria Black, was attacked.
00:01:53What?
00:02:05She had just arrived.
00:02:07We don't know why the other inmates attacked her.
00:02:10By the time we got to her, it was too late.
00:02:14She didn't make it.
00:02:17Oh, my God.
00:02:18Celeste, you killed my daughter.
00:02:20I should have hired better liars.
00:02:22Oh, God.
00:02:26Mom, Dad, I swear, every single person who had a hand on Gloria's death will pay.
00:02:38Including you.
00:02:40The day Gloria died in her cell was the day I was sentenced to my own personal hell.
00:02:48Gloria, don't blame me.
00:02:51Your death was the only way I could have Byron.
00:02:56Since the day Gloria died, my marriage to Byron has been nothing more than an empty shell.
00:03:03For the past five years, the only reason I'm allowed to stay in this house is to atone for destroying
00:03:11his family.
00:03:13That's her.
00:03:14That's her.
00:03:14She's the reason why Byron's baby sister is dead.
00:03:17Why doesn't Byron just divorce her already?
00:03:19How can you stand to look at that face every single day?
00:03:22She practically killed Gloria herself.
00:03:25Divorce?
00:03:26Look at her.
00:03:27She's barely alive, even now.
00:03:30And that Abby, by Byron's side, she's exactly what Celeste used to be when she was young.
00:03:36So, keeping her around is just torture for her.
00:03:45Byron, your wife is here.
00:03:51Ignore her.
00:03:52You know that you're the most important person to me, honey.
00:03:58Why, why can't I feel my hand properly?
00:04:02Byron, I just brought you some wine.
00:04:04Don't you know how to provide proper service?
00:04:06Hand the glass to Abby, properly.
00:04:12What's wrong with me?
00:04:13Why is this hand shaking, too?
00:04:24Celeste, why would you do this to me?
00:04:26Do you really hate alcohol that much?
00:04:29Or do you just plan on destroying every woman's life who walks in here, who just wants to have a
00:04:33drink?
00:04:34I didn't spill it.
00:04:35Byron, please, let me explain.
00:04:37It was Abby.
00:04:38It's okay.
00:04:39It's okay.
00:04:39Please, please don't blame her.
00:04:41I'm not hurt.
00:04:42I just, I feel really bad about the dress.
00:04:45You gave it to me, and I really loved it.
00:04:47I'm sorry.
00:04:49Hey.
00:04:51Old things are meant to be replaced.
00:04:53And I was already planning on giving you a new custom gown tonight.
00:04:57Why don't you go upstairs and change into it?
00:04:59Oh, my God.
00:05:00Oh, my God.
00:05:01I love surprises.
00:05:04Byron, why don't you come upstairs?
00:05:07I want some private time to thank you properly.
00:05:12Sure.
00:05:13I'll come with.
00:05:18Byron.
00:05:40Byron, my dress, it's still damp, and it's really cold, and it's clinging to me.
00:05:46Can we please, please just go upstairs?
00:05:52She's the one who tore this family into pieces.
00:05:56She doesn't deserve sympathy.
00:05:59You're going to get sick.
00:06:01Let's go.
00:06:05What are you waiting for?
00:06:06Do you expect me to help you up?
00:06:08Get up on your own.
00:06:09Clean this mess up.
00:06:16What was I even hoping for?
00:06:19The Byron who loved me died that night, too.
00:06:24Watching your own husband walk away with another woman?
00:06:26That is beyond humiliating.
00:06:29If it were me, I'd find an ocean and jump in.
00:06:31I'd as well be dead.
00:06:34Oh, come on.
00:06:44That's the fourth time this week.
00:06:48I've just been collapsing like that for no reason.
00:06:57Why do my limbs feel so weak?
00:07:05I'm sorry to tell you, Celeste.
00:07:07You've been diagnosed with ALS, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
00:07:13We need to start treatment immediately.
00:07:16How long do I have?
00:07:17If you keep up with treatment, you could live another five to ten years.
00:07:23But there's something you need to know.
00:07:27You're pregnant about three months along.
00:07:32You need to make a decision, Celeste, whether to continue with pregnancy or to start treatment.
00:07:39Your body is already extremely weak from the pregnancy.
00:07:43I strongly recommend terminating it.
00:07:47If you continue, you won't be able to undergo ALS treatment at all.
00:07:52Even if your baby survives, you won't.
00:07:55Do you understand?
00:07:57My baby might be the last gift heaven ever gives me.
00:08:02I want this baby more than anything I've ever wanted.
00:08:05If you refuse treatment, your condition will progress.
00:08:09You will start losing control of your muscles.
00:08:12You won't be able to walk.
00:08:14You won't be able to speak.
00:08:16Eventually, it will feel like your mind is trapped inside a body that no longer moves.
00:08:24I'm refusing treatment.
00:08:28Your body is too weak.
00:08:30Terminate the pregnancy.
00:08:32I can't give up on this baby.
00:08:34The same way I can't stop loving Byron.
00:08:38Even if he hates me now, he's the man who held my whole youth in his hands.
00:08:43The man who used to shield me.
00:08:46Byron, don't fight your mom.
00:08:49She's right.
00:08:49I'm not good enough for you.
00:08:51I'm just an orphan you took in.
00:08:54After graduation, I'll move out.
00:08:57I promise.
00:08:58Don't say that.
00:08:59I don't care what she thinks.
00:09:01I'm not letting anyone take you away from me.
00:09:04This isn't some stupid rebellion.
00:09:06I love you.
00:09:12Happy 18th birthday.
00:09:14I made it for you.
00:09:16I actually pieced it together all by myself.
00:09:19One by one.
00:09:22Pearls are made from pain.
00:09:24Look at them.
00:09:26They still shine.
00:09:27And so will we.
00:09:30Always.
00:09:32I promise.
00:09:34I will stand in between you and the world.
00:09:38Forever.
00:09:40Forever.
00:09:54Byron.
00:09:55Stop.
00:09:56You're drunk.
00:09:56You don't know what you're doing.
00:09:58I know exactly what I'm doing.
00:10:01I'm not Abby.
00:10:02I know exactly who you are.
00:10:04Now shut your mouth.
00:10:06Why do you keep doing this to me?
00:10:09Because I hate that I still love you.
00:10:12Because I still want you.
00:10:13Because you owe me.
00:10:20I owe you.
00:10:40We aren't using anything.
00:10:43What if I get pregnant?
00:10:44I will have the most perfect baby.
00:10:46Hopefully a girl.
00:10:48I know she'll be just as beautiful.
00:10:50As perfect as a mother.
00:10:57What if I got pregnant?
00:10:59Would you even want this child?
00:11:03We won't.
00:11:05People like you and me don't deserve a joy like that.
00:11:09You and me.
00:11:11We're in this hell together.
00:11:15Byron.
00:11:16There was a time when you couldn't wait for us to have a baby.
00:11:20But that time is gone now.
00:11:22Just like your love for me.
00:11:26Over the past month, without treatment, it's gotten worse faster than I imagined.
00:11:32My arms, my legs, heavier every day.
00:11:35And sometimes, even breathing feels hard.
00:11:38But at least I can still speak.
00:11:40For now.
00:11:41This is it, ma'am.
00:11:43As you can see, the name's already engraved.
00:11:45We'll just need the death date.
00:11:47If I'm going to die, at least I can choose where I end.
00:11:51I just hope that one day, you'll come to my funeral, Byron.
00:11:56May I ask your relation to the deceased?
00:12:01Am I really starting to lose my voice?
00:12:07This plot is for me.
00:12:13It'll be perfect.
00:12:17May I please have a private moment?
00:12:20Of course.
00:12:33Gloria.
00:12:36I never meant for you to die.
00:12:39I thought you'd be out of prison soon.
00:12:42But instead, I brought nothing but pain
00:12:45to your entire family.
00:12:47Byron.
00:12:50My husband, he...
00:12:54despises me.
00:12:56Maybe that is my crush.
00:13:05What are you doing?
00:13:10No matter what I do, Byron still won't let you go.
00:13:13Fine.
00:13:14Then I'll use Gloria one more time.
00:13:17Celeste!
00:13:18Stop it!
00:13:19Why are you doing this, Gloria?
00:13:21Celeste, why are you here?
00:13:25What did you do?
00:13:31I tried to stop her from ruining Gloria's grave, and then she shoved me.
00:13:36Byron, you have to know, I would never do this.
00:13:40Gloria must be in so much pain.
00:13:42How fucking dare you!
00:13:44On Gloria's memorial day!
00:13:46Do you hate her that much?
00:13:47I didn't do it.
00:13:49It was Abbey.
00:13:50I didn't do anything.
00:13:51Why would I want to hurt Gloria?
00:14:01Please, trust me.
00:14:05The firing we gave you to this place wouldn't trust in me.
00:14:10I used to choose you.
00:14:13Every time.
00:14:15And that's why my baby sister is dead.
00:14:24You have no idea how much I regret giving you this.
00:14:28Okay, Byron.
00:14:38Celeste.
00:14:42Oh, Byron.
00:14:43My ankle.
00:14:45It really hurts.
00:14:46Take me to the hospital.
00:14:47And I'll call someone to clean this grave up.
00:14:54Queen Gloria's grave, if you have an ounce of conscience left.
00:14:59My stomach.
00:15:00It hurts.
00:15:02Something's wrong.
00:15:08Please.
00:15:09You may develop difficulty breathing, and gradually lose the ability to speak.
00:15:14My voice.
00:15:16God.
00:15:16Not now.
00:15:20Please, save our baby.
00:15:24You're standing at your sister's gravesite, and seeing the person who killed her cry.
00:15:29That still breaks you.
00:15:31Byron, don't betray Gloria again.
00:15:39Stay here.
00:15:40Clean Gloria's grave.
00:15:42And then beg her for forgiveness.
00:15:51My baby.
00:15:54Please.
00:15:55Hang on.
00:15:57Sweetheart.
00:15:59Don't leave me.
00:16:02Almost here.
00:16:09Patient has ALS, and has suffered a miscarriage.
00:16:13We need to perform emergency dilation and serotonous now.
00:16:21Celeste.
00:16:22I'm so sorry for your loss.
00:16:25But now, I believe we can move forward with treatment.
00:16:29Dr. Lee, how long does it usually take for someone to get approved for an assisted death?
00:16:40Celeste.
00:16:41You have not reached that point with you.
00:16:44I'm starting to lose my voice.
00:16:48I don't want to live like this.
00:16:52It's so much pain.
00:16:55It would take at least three months to complete the approval process.
00:16:59And then another week to finalize the arrangements.
00:17:02Three months.
00:17:03That's enough time to end everything with Byron.
00:17:10Hi.
00:17:15Baby.
00:17:16Why don't you just divorce her already and marry me?
00:17:19Hmm?
00:17:21Let's get one thing straight.
00:17:22You're only in this house to make Celeste suffer.
00:17:26You got it?
00:17:26Don't get any ideas about taking her place.
00:17:29Do you understand?
00:17:32My request for an assisted death passed the committee.
00:17:35All that's left is Byron's informed consent.
00:17:39In seven days, all of this will be over.
00:17:43Byron, maybe my death will let you finally forgive me.
00:17:47And if it doesn't, at least let my death be the final closure to everything between us.
00:17:55Come in.
00:17:59Celeste, just you wait.
00:18:02I'll have you thrown out of this house for good.
00:18:16What do you want?
00:18:17I have something I need you to sign.
00:18:20What is it?
00:18:21The landscaping contract.
00:18:23The termite control needs to be renewed.
00:18:34Are you hiding something from me?
00:18:38Are you hiding something from me?
00:18:41It's the standard landscaping contract.
00:18:44Just sign the form already.
00:18:47I mean, she is the most devoted maid this house has ever seen.
00:19:05My dear husband, I've served my sentence in the prison you built for me.
00:19:10My debt to you is finished.
00:19:13I don't owe you another thing.
00:19:18It's so tiny.
00:19:20Will we ever get to see its leaves turn red?
00:19:23Of course we will.
00:19:25You and I are going to be here together forever.
00:19:26And one day, even our kids will run around here collecting its red leaves.
00:19:38Baby, it's my fault I couldn't protect you.
00:19:42It's all my fault.
00:19:47Friend, please take care of my baby.
00:19:52Baby, don't be afraid.
00:19:56Mama will be there with you soon.
00:19:59Byron, I caused your sister's death and murdered your love for me.
00:20:05Now, I am bearing the proof of our love.
00:20:09Our baby.
00:20:11The life we created together.
00:20:14In five days, I'll be gone from your life forever.
00:20:19Bella.
00:20:20Hi.
00:20:22Come here, Bella.
00:20:24Gloria's darling, Bella.
00:20:26You're the only one in the house who forgives me.
00:20:30What are you doing with the dog?
00:20:33Isn't it bad enough that you killed her owner?
00:20:36Now you're trying to hurt this poor puppy.
00:20:39Oh, man.
00:20:41What?
00:20:42Wait.
00:20:43Don't hurt her.
00:20:44Bella is Gloria's dog.
00:20:46You don't deserve her, you bitch.
00:20:50Stop.
00:20:51No, leave her alone.
00:20:52Stop.
00:21:02You stupid, stupid dog.
00:21:05Don't you know who's in charge?
00:21:09In this house, anyone who treats him less nicely is done for.
00:21:15Even the damn dog.
00:21:18Stop.
00:21:19Please don't hurt her.
00:21:21What is going on in here?
00:21:27What is going on in here?
00:21:32Oh, my God.
00:21:33Bella.
00:21:34Oh, my God.
00:21:39Oh, Bella.
00:21:41Oh, Bella.
00:21:42I'm so sorry.
00:21:46Oh, Byron, Byron, Byron.
00:21:48It was the last she killed Bella.
00:21:51By the time I got here, it was too late.
00:21:56You filthy little bitch.
00:21:58You took the last good thing we had of our daughter.
00:22:01I didn't.
00:22:02No.
00:22:04No.
00:22:05He said Gloria ruined her life.
00:22:08And that she hated Bella.
00:22:11And that Bella reminded her of Gloria.
00:22:13And she was going to get rid of her.
00:22:16No.
00:22:16You monster.
00:22:18Why don't you just die?
00:22:28Byron, please.
00:22:30Defend me.
00:22:32Save me.
00:22:33Please.
00:22:34For once.
00:22:41Oh, Bella, Bella, Bella.
00:22:43I'm so sorry.
00:22:45I should have stopped her.
00:22:47I should have.
00:22:48I swear on my name as your wife.
00:22:52I would never hurt Bella.
00:22:56My wife told me to grow up.
00:22:59You are nothing.
00:23:01Less than nothing.
00:23:02And the only reason that you are still around is because I'm not done making you suffer.
00:23:07This house, the home I cherished more than my own life, everything I've done to honor you as your wife,
00:23:16means nothing.
00:23:18Less than nothing.
00:23:20Mom, take Bella to the vet now.
00:23:39Your medically assisted death procedure is in three days.
00:23:43Your final confirmation is required.
00:23:48Just like you'll want, I'll be dead soon.
00:23:52Very soon.
00:23:59Goodbye, home.
00:24:02Or good.
00:24:04Goodbye, Byron.
00:24:06May our paths never cross again.
00:24:10Not in this life.
00:24:12And not in whatever comes after.
00:24:18Mrs. Black, once you take the medication, the medically assisted death sequence will begin.
00:24:24I've never been more sure.
00:24:26I will stand in between you and the world forever.
00:24:32I've given you your life back.
00:24:34Byron, we're even now.
00:24:38I hope hell's willing to take me.
00:24:41That way, when you reach heaven, we'll never have to see each other again.
00:24:51Will you mourn me when I'm gone?
00:24:54Why am I asking?
00:24:55You are nothing.
00:24:57You won't.
00:24:58Less than nothing.
00:25:00You let me die in your heart five years ago.
00:25:03Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting.
00:25:15Patients lost black.
00:25:17Affirm deceased.
00:25:19Time of death, 325.
00:25:22December 2nd, 2026.
00:25:25Age 30.
00:25:34That's it, I'm out.
00:25:36Byron, you've wiped me out again.
00:25:38You've been winning all night.
00:25:39Looks like Abby really is your lucky star.
00:25:44Poor woman.
00:25:47All alone right to the very end.
00:25:50No family.
00:25:51No body by her side.
00:25:53We need to contact her next of kin so they can arrange to collect her body.
00:25:56Hey, to us, the sad, the lonely, the unfortunate bastards that don't have anyone to sit in their laps, right?
00:26:03We got to cheer for ourselves.
00:26:07I really don't get it.
00:26:09If you hate Celeste so much, why don't you just divorce her?
00:26:12Marry this fine woman instead.
00:26:16Let's be clear.
00:26:18My marriage is not up for discussion.
00:26:22There will only ever be one Mrs. Black.
00:26:25And that's Celeste Rowan Black.
00:26:33Byron Black?
00:26:34Hello, Mr. Black.
00:26:35This is the Assistant Death Center calling to inform me of the passing of Celeste Black.
00:26:41You can arrange to pick up her remains.
00:26:43I'm sorry.
00:26:45Collect Celeste's remains?
00:26:48Collect Celeste's remains?
00:26:50Celeste Black named you as her next of kin.
00:26:53Your wife was a voluntary patient at the Assistant Death Center.
00:26:55The process has now been completed.
00:26:57You can pick up her remains.
00:26:58You gotta be fucking with me.
00:27:00Who is this?
00:27:01You piece of shit.
00:27:02I don't got time for your games.
00:27:05Myron, baby, what's wrong?
00:27:08Nothing.
00:27:13I have something I need you to sign.
00:27:21Byron, you okay?
00:27:22Is everything all right with the business?
00:27:23Someone's just fucking with me.
00:27:25It can't be she.
00:27:26It can't be.
00:27:29I might be drunk.
00:27:31I'm gonna go home.
00:27:34Byron, where are you going?
00:27:41Celeste?
00:27:43Celeste!
00:27:44Where are you, Celeste?
00:27:47Answer me!
00:27:49Where are you?
00:27:52Celeste, if you don't answer me, I'm gonna lose my temper!
00:28:03Byron, Byron, Byron, Baby!
00:28:04Baby, what's wrong with you?
00:28:06Where's Celeste?
00:28:07Where is she?
00:28:08Where did she go?
00:28:10Baby, don't you remember?
00:28:12This is your room.
00:28:14Celeste has a room in the meat quarters.
00:28:17Celeste isn't here anymore.
00:28:21Byron, please.
00:28:23You're scaring me.
00:28:24If you can get the fuck out of here
00:28:27and get your ass in the maids' quarters where you belong!
00:28:30Got it?
00:28:31You lost your privilege of being Mrs. Black when you killed Gloria!
00:28:35Remember, you are nothing!
00:28:37Byron, this is so cruel.
00:28:41Go on.
00:28:42I don't want to see your ass help you ever again!
00:28:50Celeste hasn't shared a room with you in five years.
00:28:53Remember, you kicked her out.
00:28:55If you still need to talk to her, you can look for her in the morning, okay?
00:29:00Yeah, I kicked her out.
00:29:02She's in the maids' quarters.
00:29:04That's where she is.
00:29:05She can't go anywhere else.
00:29:07Yeah.
00:29:08Yeah, she can't go anywhere else.
00:29:10She has no money, no friends, no family.
00:29:14Without you, she won't survive.

00:46:44the last time
00:46:45I saw her
00:46:46she was carrying
00:46:47a box
00:46:48and a shovel
00:46:50I asked her
00:46:51what she was doing
00:46:52with them
00:46:53and she said
00:46:54it wasn't important
00:47:03who told you
00:47:04to touch that tree
00:47:06Mr. Black
00:47:06sir
00:47:07the tree's dead
00:47:08I see that
00:47:09what happened
00:47:10well sir
00:47:12it looks like
00:47:14someone tried
00:47:14to dig around
00:47:15the roots
00:47:16and probably
00:47:17damage them
00:47:17the last time
00:47:19I saw her
00:47:19she was carrying
00:47:21a box
00:47:22and a shovel
00:47:24out of my way
00:47:25and the next time
00:47:26I saw her
00:47:29I saw her
00:47:31and she said
00:47:52she said
00:47:54was
00:48:00Celeste was pregnant?
00:48:13Where are you, Celeste?
00:48:16I need to find you.
00:48:18I need to find you.
00:48:30Dr. Lee, Dr. Lee treated Celeste.
00:48:40Who are you?
00:48:42Did you help?
00:48:46Did you treat Celeste Black?
00:48:49Celeste Black?
00:48:51Yes, I remember her.
00:48:52She left a strong impression on me.
00:48:56The one with ALS who insisted on carrying on her pregnancy.
00:49:04The day she lost her baby, cried so hard.
00:49:10The entire hallway can hear her.
00:49:20She was really pregnant?
00:49:25For that baby, she was willing to risk everything, including her life.
00:49:31But your body is already extremely weak from the pregnancy.
00:49:37I strongly recommend terminating it.
00:49:40If you continue, you won't be able to undergo ALS treatment at all.
00:49:45Even if your baby survives, you won't.
00:49:50Do you understand?
00:49:54I want this baby more than anything I've ever wanted.
00:50:01I've advised her many times to terminate it and start treatment.
00:50:07When she refused.
00:50:09She lost the baby anyway.
00:50:13She lost the baby anyway.
00:50:16She was broken.
00:50:18And opted for assisted death.
00:50:23So you're saying she died for the baby.
00:50:28She refused treatment to carry the child.
00:50:32I've never met a patient with a more positive attitude.
00:50:38We all thought she would carry it to term.
00:50:41It was tragic.
00:50:47You're lying.
00:50:50You're a liar.
00:50:51Why would she risk her life for a kid?
00:50:55She's not.
00:50:56She's not.
00:50:56She's not that stupid.
00:50:59She's not.
00:51:00She's not.
00:51:01She's not that stupid.
00:51:02Calm down, Mr. Black.
00:51:03Please.
00:51:04I understand you're in pain.
00:51:08Please accept my condolences.
00:51:10Fuck your condolences.
00:51:11You were bribed, huh?
00:51:14She bribed you?
00:51:15Yeah, she fucking bribed you.
00:51:17How much?
00:51:19Here.
00:51:21I will pay you double to tell me where the fuck she is!
00:51:27Calm down, please.
00:51:29Mr. Black, you signed the family consent form for her assisted death.
00:51:34I didn't sign no damn fucking form!
00:51:40Stop back or I'll call security!
00:51:42Tell me where she is right now.
00:51:43Where are you hiding her?
00:51:45Cold violent.
00:51:46Right in my office.
00:51:47I need security now.
00:51:49I'll make the fuck go right now.
00:51:51Tell me where she is!
00:51:54My wife, she wouldn't leave me.
00:51:56She's not dead.
00:51:58You all are a bunch of fucking liars.
00:52:01Why are you helping her?
00:52:02Why?
00:52:03Tell me where she is.
00:52:06Why?
00:52:07You're all in on it.
00:52:09All of you, it's all part of your plan.
00:52:11How could I not know that my own wife has ALS?
00:52:16How did I not know that she was pregnant?
00:52:18How could she not tell me that?
00:52:21You all are fucking lying to me!
00:52:24Poor guy.
00:52:25His wife must have been so sick.
00:52:28He's out of his mind.
00:52:29Can you blame him?
00:52:31It sounds like his wife signed up for assistive death and didn't tell him about it.
00:52:36Any man would lose his mind about that.
00:52:39Right.
00:52:43Honestly, I don't even know who you're trying to impress with this little show.
00:52:48What right do you have to burst in here and treat me like this?
00:52:51And pretend that you're grieving?
00:52:56Where were you when your wife sat in that cold chair?
00:53:01Alone.
00:53:02Getting her terminal diagnosis.
00:53:05Where were you again?
00:53:07When your wife's body was still in day by day and she still came in for her ALS checkup alone.
00:53:15Where the hell were you when she had her mascara covered in blood and had to be rushed in for
00:53:24emergency D&C surgery?
00:53:26Never mind.
00:53:28I'll tell you.
00:53:30You were not there for any of it.
00:53:34Not a single time.
00:53:38So tell me, what right do you have?
00:53:42To be here and play the I love her card now?
00:53:51I love her.
00:53:54Get him out of my sight.
00:53:57Take him to the police.
00:54:06Mr. Black.
00:54:08You've been charged with disorderly conduct at the hospital.
00:54:12Why were you threatening the doctor?
00:54:14My wife.
00:54:15My wife.
00:54:16She's gone.
00:54:17I can't find my wife.
00:54:19Your wife is missing?
00:54:22Let's start with the name.
00:54:24Celeste Black.
00:54:26She's been missing for days.
00:54:29I need your help.
00:54:31I need your help.
00:54:33Black.
00:54:34Celeste.
00:54:36Found her.
00:54:42She's dead.
00:54:43It says so right here.
00:54:47She had a medically assisted suicide due to terminal ALS.
00:54:51Right here, see?
00:54:56You're lying.
00:54:57You're lying.
00:54:58You're lying.
00:54:58You're lying.
00:54:59You're lying to me, aren't you?
00:55:00I'm sorry.
00:55:06Look at this douchebag.
00:55:09So his wife's dead.
00:55:12So what?
00:55:14Big deal.
00:55:16Oh, he's losing it.
00:55:20Crying.
00:55:21Making a scene.
00:55:24Seriously, what's the big deal?
00:55:36Enough!
00:55:37Get down!
00:55:38Get down!
00:55:39She's not dead!
00:55:40She's not!
00:55:40She can't be dead!
00:55:42She can't be dead!
00:55:43You don't want to do this, man.
00:55:45You don't want to do this.
00:55:47I'm sorry.
00:55:48I'm sorry, Celeste.
00:55:50I'm sorry.
00:55:52I was wrong.
00:55:53Please come home.
00:55:56Please come home.
00:55:58I don't need anything else.
00:56:00I just need you to come home.
00:56:02Please.
00:56:04Please come home.
00:56:13Boss, I'm here.
00:56:15Everything's been taken care of.
00:56:17Posted bail for you.
00:56:18Let's go home.
00:56:21You haven't slept in days.
00:56:24I know you want to find Celeste,
00:56:26but you need to get home and get some rest.
00:56:29Take this city apart.
00:56:31Find Celeste.
00:56:33Dead.
00:56:34Or alive.
00:56:36I want to see her with my own two eyes.
00:57:10I want to see her with my own two eyes.
00:57:16Celeste?
00:57:32Who's my good little girl?
00:57:34You are.
00:57:35You are.
00:57:37Fine, I get it.
00:57:39No wonder Bella likes her more than anyone.
00:57:41Except me.
00:57:43You're such a cutie pie.
00:57:49Alyssa.
00:57:52Oh.
00:58:06The number you dialed is not in service.
00:58:14I'm going to bring her back.
00:58:17I promise you.
00:58:21I'm going to find her.
00:58:23I'm going to do whatever it takes.
00:58:26I'm going to bring her back.
00:58:34Hello.
00:58:35Welcome to your new home.
00:58:38What are you doing here, Abby?
00:58:40What's with all the luggage?
00:58:41Well, I told her to come.
00:58:43Now that we're rid of that horrible, deceitful Celeste,
00:58:47it's time for you, Byron, to do the right thing
00:58:49and make Abby your wife.
00:58:51After all, she is beautiful and has exquisite taste.
00:58:56And more importantly, we can count on her to take care of your father and I.
00:59:01Yes, yes.
00:59:02You're very right.
00:59:04Celeste went too far this time, disappearing without an excuse.
00:59:08Doesn't give a damn about making sure I got my meds on time.
00:59:15I'm getting worse.
00:59:16Exactly.
00:59:17And that disloyal little bitch,
00:59:20she caused problems with our family from the very beginning.
00:59:24It's much better that she's gone.
00:59:26Some good riddance.
00:59:28Baby, baby, I'll make sure your dad gets his meds
00:59:31and that your mom has everything she needs.
00:59:34I'll take care of them.
00:59:36And I'll take care of you.
00:59:39Jesus Christ, have you guys all lost your minds?
00:59:41I'm married to Celeste.
00:59:44I still am.
00:59:45I always will be.
00:59:47Do not invite another woman into my house.
00:59:50I cannot believe you.
00:59:52How can you speak to your mother that way?
00:59:55I have news about Celeste.
00:59:57Great.
00:59:58Finally, where is she?
01:00:01Great.
01:00:02Finally, where is she?
01:00:04Oh, I knew it.
01:00:07I knew she was plotting something with her little disappearance.
01:00:12Boss, the doctors, the police, the staff at the assisted death center.
01:00:18None of them are actors.
01:00:20No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:00:22None of them lied.
01:00:23No, Chris, this isn't happening.
01:00:25It's all real.
01:00:27I'm so sorry, boss, but Celeste is...
01:00:30No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:00:33She's dead.
01:00:35No, Chris, you're wrong.
01:00:38You're wrong.
01:00:40You're wrong.
01:00:41Well, how can she be dead?
01:00:43She never even had the sniffles.
01:00:45She was never sick, ever.
01:00:47How can she be dead?
01:00:48Six months ago, Celeste was diagnosed with late-stage ALS.
01:00:52At the same time, she discovered she was pregnant.
01:00:55She had a choice, boss.
01:00:56She could get the treatment that would have extended her life a few years, at least.
01:01:02Or she could have your baby.
01:01:03She chose your child.
01:01:07That day at the cemetery, she miscarried.
01:01:10And by that time, it was too late to start treatment.
01:01:14She was already too far gone.
01:01:17So she decided to leave this world with dignity.
01:01:21She arranged for her assisted death at the center.
01:01:24The procedure is...
01:01:27It's done.
01:01:27She's gone.
01:01:31You...
01:01:31You helped her to see for me.
01:01:33Boss, boss, I would never lie to you.
01:01:37Besides that, during my investigation, I pulled the cemetery security footage.
01:01:44And I recovered the home surveillance that Abby deleted.
01:01:48Abby has been framing Celeste for years.
01:01:51Abby is the one who poured red paint on Gloria's grave.
01:01:57Abby is the one who hurt Bella.
01:02:02You're a goddamn liar.
01:02:06Why are you protecting her now?
01:02:19Don't you all see?
01:02:22I bet they've been sleeping together.
01:02:25That's why he's protecting her.
01:02:27Why else would he be protecting her?
01:02:29Really?
01:02:29Here.
01:02:31Take a look.
01:02:32Celeste never did anything.
01:02:35Abby did.
01:02:37And that day that Abby hurt Bella, Celeste begged you to believe her.
01:02:42But you didn't.
01:02:44And that was the day she confirmed her appointment with the center.
01:02:50You filthy little bitch!
01:02:52You took the last good thing we had of our daughter.
01:02:55Byron, please defend me.
01:02:59See me.
01:03:01Please, for once.
01:03:07I, I, I, you, you have to let me explain.
01:03:10Shut up.
01:03:10I've got hours of footage and also testimony from household staff.
01:03:14And it all confirms the truth.
01:03:17Abby has been responsible for every bad deed that you have blamed Celeste for.
01:03:21And that's when I decided to dig deeper.
01:03:24Boss, you told me to find out why Gloria was killed the day she went in.
01:03:28I ran the names of every rival, every enemy you have, nothing.
01:03:36And then I looked up Abby.
01:03:41Abby paid for Gloria to be beaten to death.
01:03:54That's funny.
01:03:55That's, that's, that's a lie.
01:03:57That's a lie.
01:03:57He's making this up.
01:03:59Please.
01:04:00Please, Byron.
01:04:02That's a lie.
01:04:02He's making this up.
01:04:04Please.
01:04:05Please, Byron.
01:04:06I have more.
01:04:07Abby sabotaged Gloria's brakes, leading to the crash.
01:04:14I find Gloria Black guilty on all charges.
01:04:23I'm such a fucking idiot.
01:04:27I didn't even question myself.
01:04:31But you were so eager to help me after Gloria died.
01:04:40I abandoned her.
01:04:42I punished her.
01:04:45I broke her all for something that she didn't do.
01:04:51I, I, I only did, I only did.
01:04:54Because I love you.
01:04:56Shut up with that disgusting crap.
01:04:58Abby, stop.
01:05:00You're gonna kill her.
01:05:01Stop.
01:05:02Stop.
01:05:07Please.
01:05:08Forgive me.
01:05:10You love me, right?
01:05:12I can give you everything you ever wanted.
01:05:15Please.
01:05:16I never loved you.
01:05:17Not for a second.
01:05:20You, right now, I want to kill you.
01:05:24Flash.
01:05:25Flash, stop, please.
01:05:26I already called the police.
01:05:28They'll come and get her.
01:05:29Do not ruin your life over her.
01:05:32No, no, Byron.
01:05:34Byron, you can't do this.
01:05:35No, you, you can't.
01:05:37Please, please don't call the police.
01:05:39You love me.
01:05:40You love me.
01:05:41You do.
01:05:42Remember when, when I first saw you.
01:05:45When we first met.
01:05:47Remember when I came to you.
01:05:48I, I just graduated college.
01:05:51I was, I was a new hire.
01:05:52I was, I was nothing.
01:05:54You remembered my name.
01:05:56You pulled me close.
01:05:58You made me your assistant.
01:06:00Listen, everyone said that if you weren't married, you would have married me.
01:06:05You listen carefully.
01:06:07The only woman that I love is Celeste.
01:06:11And the only reason that you got close to me was because of her.
01:06:17And the only reason that you got close to me was because of her.
01:06:21No, no, no, no.
01:06:22That's not true.
01:06:22That's not true.
01:06:23You love me.
01:06:25You do.
01:06:26Every time you looked at me, you were obsessed.
01:06:30When you would stare at my face, it was like, it was like you couldn't get enough.
01:06:34So how can you stand here and say you never loved me?
01:06:38You're just a cheap substitute.
01:06:40You should be grateful.
01:06:41Grateful that your face looks half as good as hers.
01:06:44Because if it didn't, I would kill you right here, right now.
01:06:48Cheap substitute.
01:06:51No, no, that is impossible.
01:06:56How can I be her substitute?
01:06:58Get her out of here.
01:07:00Cancel every credit card I gave her.
01:07:03Terminate the lease on the apartment that I rent and stop funding her accounts.
01:07:08Leave her with nothing.
01:07:11A substitute.
01:07:12A substitute.
01:07:13I don't understand.
01:07:16I did everything, everything to make you abandon her.
01:07:24I thought that once Gloria died that you would just be done with her.
01:07:29That you would divorce her, kick her out.
01:07:31But no, you didn't.
01:07:33So I stayed.
01:07:35And for five years, I stayed right here watching you tear her down over.
01:07:43And over again.
01:07:45All I ever saw was hate.
01:07:48Why didn't you divorce her?
01:07:49Why couldn't you just let her go?
01:07:52Oh my God.
01:07:54How did I not figure this out before?
01:07:56Even when I killed Gloria, you couldn't stop loving Celeste.
01:08:02Because you never hated her.
01:08:04The one that you hated was yourself.
01:08:10So you just couldn't let yourself let her go.
01:08:14So you tortured her.
01:08:17Gloria's blood.
01:08:18It might be on my hands.
01:08:20Fine.
01:08:21But I'm not the reason Celeste is dead.
01:08:25You are everything that she loved.
01:08:28You destroyed.
01:08:30Your baby.
01:08:33You killed it.
01:08:34You told yourself that you hated her.
01:08:37But oh, how she must have hated you.
01:08:43Even at the very end.
01:08:46I bet she cursed your name with her very last breath.
01:09:00Yeah, that's it.
01:09:01She's not dead.
01:09:02This is a prank.
01:09:03This is a prank.
01:09:06And I'm going to fix it.
01:09:07I'm going to find her.
01:09:09I'll find her.
01:09:09And I will make her forgive me.
01:09:12I have to.
01:09:14I have to.
01:09:18I have to.
01:09:20I have to.
01:09:24I have to.
01:09:27I have to.
01:09:30I have to.
01:09:32I have to.
01:09:34I have to.
01:09:36I have to.
01:09:38I have to.
01:09:38I have to.
01:09:39I have to.
01:09:40I have to.
01:09:41I have to.
01:10:48She's just mad at you.
01:10:51She'll forgive you like she always does.
01:10:55You show her.
01:11:00Celeste!
01:11:04Ariel, open up!
01:11:07Leave now or I will call the police.
01:11:11Leave now or I will call the police.
01:11:13I just need to talk to her, please.
01:11:15Ariel, she's not here. Just tell me where she is, please.
01:11:18She's not here.
01:11:20Celeste! I need to talk to you!
01:11:22Come on, you're still my wife!
01:11:23She's still your wife. Why don't you know where she is?
01:11:25I fucked up. I fucked up bad.
01:11:28I just, let me, let me try and make it right with her.
01:11:31You can't.
01:11:33No more games. No more games.
01:11:35I already broke it off with Abby.
01:11:37I'll move. I'll move Celeste out of the maid quarters.
01:11:40I'll do anything that she wants.
01:11:42Whatever she wants, please, Ariel.
01:11:43You can't!
01:11:45You can't! Don't you get that, you stupid, pathetic asshole!
01:11:48No! You can't make it up to her.
01:11:50Not ever.
01:11:52She's dead.
01:11:57She's dead.
01:11:58And you and your family drove her to it.
01:12:03What was the joke?
01:12:04The joke's over.
01:12:06Ariel, I can't get any more police. I need her.
01:12:10Well, you should have thought about that before you drove her to her death.
01:12:13I was wrong.
01:12:15I didn't...
01:12:16I...
01:12:17I didn't want to.
01:12:18I...
01:12:19I...
01:12:20I shouldn't have.
01:12:23Celeste!
01:12:24Celeste!
01:12:26Celeste!
01:12:26But...
01:12:27But forgive me, please!
01:12:29We can make this right.
01:12:31We can, I swear.
01:12:32We can fix it together.
01:12:34I'll do whatever you want, please.
01:12:36Just let me show you in person, please.
01:12:40How many times do I have to say this before you just fucking listen to me?
01:12:44You can't fix this.
01:12:46You are never going to fix this because my best friend is dead.
01:12:55She came to me in despair.
01:12:58She was begging for help.
01:13:00She wept in my arms as she told me about her baby that she lost.
01:13:04Your baby, Byron.
01:13:05The baby that you didn't want.
01:13:14This is the last gift Celeste wanted me to give you.
01:13:20Even in her last hours on this earth, she thought of you.
01:13:25She wanted to be free of you, Byron.
01:13:28Celeste wanted to make sure that this divorce would be the absolute end of the two of you.
01:13:33Not just in this life, but in any life that might come after.
01:13:37She wanted to make sure that not even your souls could ever be reunited.
01:13:57Please tell me where she is.
01:14:00I just need to see her one last time.
01:14:02Stop putting on this axe pretending you loved her.
01:14:05You didn't love her.
01:14:06You were with another woman when she died, weren't you?
01:14:11Ariel, I have a voice.
01:14:12Please, please, please, Ariel, please.
01:14:15Ariel.
01:14:18Please, I need to see her.
01:14:19I need to see her one more time.
01:14:21I need to see her one more time.
01:14:55Boss, you need to get yourself under control.
01:14:59I have news about Celeste.
01:15:04I find out where Ariel Hendricks took her body.
01:15:08Quiet Rest Cemetery.
01:15:10Same place where your family has their plots.
01:15:30Sir, can I help you?
01:15:32I'm looking for a grave.
01:15:33My condolences, sir.
01:15:35If you tell me the name, I can help you find it.
01:15:36She's my one.
01:15:40I can take you.
01:15:41Let's go this way.
01:16:02Doc, I can't.
01:16:03I can't take this anymore.
01:16:08Doc, I can't.
01:16:10I can't take this anymore.
01:16:15I remember her.
01:16:17She came here to purchase her own grave.
01:16:20She was so sad because she knew she was going to die.
01:16:25She chose her own grave.
01:16:32It's so close to the dream.
01:16:35But it's so far away.
01:16:37It was raining that day.
01:16:39Just like today.
01:16:41It's true.
01:16:41I remember.
01:16:43I had to call the ambulance.
01:16:45She was this scaring.
01:16:46There was so much blood.
01:16:47I thought you might die right there.
01:16:56It was the same day that she begged me.
01:17:02She begged me to help her and I off the way.
01:17:07I'm such a fucking idiot.
01:17:09I killed my child.
01:17:12As if with my own two hands.
01:17:15That's why you can't forgive me.
01:17:17You choose to die.
01:17:21Rather than deceive me ever again.
01:17:25Sir, you're fairly unwell.
01:17:27Let me take you to the hospital, okay?
01:17:30When was she buried?
01:17:32You're her husband and you don't know?
01:17:36Her funeral's tomorrow.
01:17:38She hasn't been buried.
01:17:44I can't.
01:17:45I can't.
01:17:46It's like, I get it.
01:17:47I totally get it now.
01:17:49She's just punishing me.
01:17:51Right?
01:17:52Right?
01:17:53And she staged her whole funeral.
01:17:54A fake funeral.
01:17:56It's to prank me.
01:17:57She's just in hiding.
01:17:58She's throwing a tantrum.
01:18:00It's all fake.
01:18:02Sir, you need to calm down.
01:18:04No, no, no, no.

01:26:30I don't know.
01:26:56Celeste, I got your letter and the necklace I broke.
01:27:07You fixed it.
01:27:09You were always a better person than me.
01:27:12You always knew how to make the best in things.
01:27:18And that was one of my favorite qualities of yours.
01:27:22We were so happy.
01:27:23And it's my fault that it all went wrong.
01:27:27And you were right to tell the truth about Gloria.
01:27:32That was one of my favorite things about you.
01:27:35The day we got married, I promised you that I would always love you.
01:27:40And I meant that.
01:27:42And I meant that.
01:27:45You probably don't believe me because I betrayed you.
01:27:49I'm so sorry.
01:27:52I will pay for it forever.
01:28:02I know you didn't want to see me ever again.
01:28:05I don't blame you.
01:28:07But you were always an angel, Celeste.
01:28:10If whatever heaven has to offer, you deserve it.
01:28:13You deserve it all and more.
01:28:15If one of us has to go to hell for this,
01:28:24Let it be me.
01:28:25Let it be me.
01:28:26Let it be me.
01:28:27Let it be me.
01:28:28Let it be me.
01:28:53Let it be me.
01:28:55You
