00:00:03The Medically Assisted Death Sequence
00:00:04Mrs. 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.
00:00:15I hope Hell's willing to take me. That way, when you reach Heaven, we'll never have to see each other
00:00:21again.
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!
00:00:51All that we asked is that you tell one little lie in court for Gloria.
00:00:58And you couldn't even do that!
00:01:02Mom, stop!
00:01:04Don't blame Celeste.
00:01:06Gloria 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.
00:01:21I 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.
00:01:39She'll be out no time.
00:01:41I'll apologize to Gloria. I'll make it up to her when she gets out. I promise.
00:01:46Mr. Black. I'm so sorry. There's been an incident. Your sister Gloria Black was attacked.
00:01:53What?
00:02:05She had just arrived. We don't know why the other inmates attacked her.
00:02:09By the time we got to her, it was too late.
00:02:14She didn't make it.
00:02:16Oh, my God. I'll let you kill my daughter.
00:02:20I should have hired better liars.
00:02:22Oh, God.
00:02:26Mom. Dad.
00:02:28I 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.
00:02:50Don'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.
00:03:04For 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. She'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.
00:03:30I'm not Abby, by Byron's side.
00:03:33She's exactly what Celeste used to be when she was young.
00:03:37Keeping her around is just torture for her.
00:03:44Byron, your wife is here.
00:03:52Ignore her.
00:03:52Ignore her.
00:03:52You know that you're the most important person to me, honey.
00:03:58Why?
00:03:59Why 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?
00:04:24Why 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.
00:04:36Let me explain.
00:04:37It was Abby.
00:04:38It's okay.
00:04:38It's okay.
00:04:39Please.
00:04:40Please don't blame her.
00:04:41I'm not hurt.
00:04:42I just 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.
00:05:03Byron, why don't you come upstairs?
00:05:07I want some private time to thank you properly.
00:05:11Sure.
00:05:13I'll come with.
00:05:18Byron.
00:05:24Byron.
00:05:40Byron, my dress, it's still damp, and it's really cold, and it's clinging to me.
00:05:47Can 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 gonna get sick. Let's go.
00:06:04What are you waiting for? Do you expect me to help you up?
00:06:08Get up on your own. Clean this mess up.
00:06:16What was I even hoping for?
00:06:19The Byron who loved me died that night, too.
00:06:23Watching your own husband walk away with another woman? That is beyond humiliating.
00:06:29If it were me, I'd find an ocean and jump in. I'd as well be dead.
00:06:34Oh, come on.
00:06:43That's the fourth time this week.
00:06:48I've just been collapsing like that for no reason.
00:06:55Oh, my God.
00:07:05I'm sorry to tell you, Celeste. You've been diagnosed with ALS, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. We need to start treatment immediately.
00:07:44How long do I have?
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. Do 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. You 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.
00:08:27Your body is too weak. Terminate the pregnancy.
00:08:32I can't give up on this baby. The 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. I'm not good enough for you.
00:08:51I'm just an orphan you took in.
00:08:54After graduation, I'll move out. I promise.
00:08:58Don't say that. I don't care what she thinks.
00:09:01I'm not letting anyone take you away from me.
00:09:03This 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.
00:09:25Look 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.
00:09:43Forever.
00:09:53Byron.
00:09:55Stop.
00:09:55You'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.
00:10:40We aren't using anything.
00:10:43What if I get pregnant?
00:10:44Then we'll 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 her 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 for 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.
00:12:32Gloria.
00:12:36I never meant for you to die.
00:12:39I thought you'd be out of prison soon.
00:12:41But instead, I brought nothing but pain to 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.
00:13:34And then she stopped me.
00:13:36Byron, you have to know.
00:13:38I would never do this.
00:13:40Gloria must be in so much pain.
00:13:42How fucking dare you.
00:13:44How 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?
00:13:53Gloria.
00:14:01Please, trust me.
00:14:05The Byron we gave you this purpose wouldn't trust me.
00:14:10I used to choose you. Every time. And that's why my baby sister is dead.
00:14:24You have no idea how much I regret giving you this.
00:14:28Byron.
00:14:38Celeste.
00:14:41Oh, Byron. My ankle. It really hurts. Take me to the hospital and I'll call someone to clean this grave
00:14:50up.
00:14:55Clean Gloria's grave. If you have an ounce of conscience left.
00:14:59My stomach. It hurts. Something's wrong.
00:15:07Byron. Please.
00:15:09You may develop difficulty breathing and gradually lose the ability to speak.
00:15:14My voice. God. Not now.
00:15:19Please. 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. Byron, don't betray Gloria again.
00:15:39Stay here. Clean Gloria's grave. And then beg her for forgiveness.
00:15:51My baby. Please. Hang on.
00:15:57Sweetheart. Don't leave me.
00:16:02The patient has ALS and has suffered a miscarriage. We need to perform emergency dilation in CiroCast now.
00:16:22Celeste, I'm so sorry for your loss.
00:16:25I'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, you have not reached that point with you.
00:16:43I'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.
00:17:10Honey.
00:17:15Baby.
00:17:16Why don't you just divorce her already and marry me?
00:17:20Let'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.
00:17:36All 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.
00:18:00Celeste, 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.
00:18:22The 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.
00:19:24You 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, my God.
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 it.
00:21:02You stupid, stupid dog.
00:21:05Don't you know who's in charge?
00:21:09In this house, anyone who treats them less nicely is done for.
00:21:15You've been a 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, Bella.
00:21:36Bella.
00:21:38Oh, my God.
00:21:39Oh, Bella.
00:21:41Oh, Bella.
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.
00:21:55You 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.
00:22:16You 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.
00:22:57Don't make me throw up.
00:22:59You are nothing.
00:23:01Less than nothing.
00:23:02And the only reason that you are still around
00:23:05is because I'm not done making you suffer.
00:23:07This house.
00:23:09The home I cherished more than my own life.
00:23:12Everything 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.
00:23:22Mom, take Bella to the vet now.
00:23:23Mom, take Bella to the vet now.
00:23:27Mom, 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.
00:23:51Very soon.
00:23:59Goodbye, home.
00:24:01Or good.
00:24:04Goodbye, Byron.
00:24:06May our paths never cross again.
00:24:09Not in this life.
00:24:12And not in whatever comes after.
00:24:18Mrs. Black, once you take the medication,
00:24:21the medically assisted death sequence will begin.
00:24:24I've never been more sure.
00:24:27I 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,
00:24:44we'll never have to see each other again.
00:24:51Will you mourn me when I'm gone?
00:24:54Why am I asking?
00:24:56You are nothing.
00:24:57You won't.
00:24:58Less than nothing.
00:24:59You let me die in your heart five years ago.
00:25:15Patience, Celeste 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.
00:25:35I'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.
00:25:51Nobody by her side.
00:25:53We need to contact her next of kin
00:25:54so they can arrange to collect her body.
00:25:56Hey, to us,
00:25:57the sad,
00:25:58the lonely,
00:26:00the unfortunate bastards
00:26:01that don't have anyone to sit in their laps, right?
00:26:03We got here for ourselves.
00:26:07I really don't get it.
00:26:09If you hate Celeste so much,
00:26:10why don't you just divorce her?
00:26:12Marry this fine woman instead.
00:26:16Let's be clear.
00:26:18My marriage
00:26:19is not up for discussion.
00:26:21There will only ever be one
00:26:23Mrs. Black.
00:26:25And that's Celeste
00:26:27Rowan
00:26:28Black.
00:26:33Byron Black?
00:26:34Hello, Mr. Black.
00:26:35This is the Assistant Death Center
00:26:37calling to inform you
00:26:38of the passing of Celeste Black.
00:26:41You can arrange to pick up her remains.
00:26:43I'm sorry.
00:26:45Collect Celeste remains?
00:26:48Collect Celeste remains?
00:26:50Celeste Black named you
00:26:52as her next of kin.
00:26:53Your wife was a voluntary patient
00:26:54at 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
00:27:14I need you to sign.
00:27:21Byron, you okay?
00:27:22Is everything alright
00:27:22with 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?
00:27:42Celeste?
00:27:43Celeste!
00:27:44Where are you, Celeste?
00:27:47Answer me!

00:28:12This is your room.
00:28:14Celeste has a room
00:28:15in the maid quarters.
00:28:17Celeste isn't here anymore.
00:28:21Byron,
00:28:22please,
00:28:23you're scaring me.
00:28:24You can get the fuck

00:28:29where you belong.
00:28:30Got it?
00:28:31You lost your privilege
00:28:32of being Mrs. Black
00:28:33when you killed
00:28:33Gloria!
00:28:35Remember,
00:28:35you are nothing!
00:28:37Byron,
00:28:38this is so cruel.
00:28:41Go on.
00:28:42I don't want to see your ass
00:28:43help you ever again!
00:28:50Celeste hasn't shared a room
00:28:51with you
00:28:52in five years.
00:28:53Remember,
00:28:54you kicked her out.
00:28:55If you still
00:28:57need to talk to her,
00:28:58you can look for her
00:28:59in the morning, okay?
00:29:00Yeah,
00:29:01I kicked her out.
00:29:02She's in the maid's quarters.
00:29:04That's where she is.
00:29:05She can't go anywhere else.
00:29:07Yeah.
00:29:08Yeah,
00:29:08she can't go anywhere else.
00:29:10She has no money,
00:29:11no friends,
00:29:12no family.
00:29:13Without you,
00:29:14she won't survive.
00:29:19Byron,
00:29:20please,
00:29:21save me.
00:29:23Celeste,
00:29:25where are you?

00:29:52Byron,
00:29:55it hurts.
00:29:59please,
00:30:01help me.
00:30:02Are you Kurt?
00:30:04Byron.
00:30:06Sorry,
00:30:07I couldn't save our baby.
00:30:09When I'm gone,
00:30:10when we're gone,
00:30:12promise me
00:30:13that you'll be happy.
00:30:15What?
00:30:15Celeste,

00:30:18Celeste,

00:30:19please,
00:30:20you can't leave me,
00:30:21please.
00:30:22Celeste!
00:30:27Good morning,
00:30:28my love.
00:30:29I have news.
00:30:32I'm pregnant.
00:30:33Really?
00:30:43They're not still leaving.
00:30:48Celeste,
00:30:48where are you?
00:30:55Where's Celeste?
00:30:56I haven't seen
00:30:57that nasty little trollop
00:30:58in days.
00:30:59Clearly,
00:31:00she doesn't have
00:31:00a shred of decency
00:31:02or responsibility.
00:31:03Maybe she thought
00:31:04her life was just
00:31:05too hard
00:31:06and ran off.
00:31:09No,
00:31:10she can't.
00:31:11She can't leave me.
00:31:12The number you have reached
00:31:13is no longer in service.
00:31:15Please check the number
00:31:16and try again.
00:31:17Damn it,
00:31:17where is she?
00:31:18You don't think
00:31:19she's still mad at me,
00:31:21do you?
00:31:22Because I called her out
00:31:24for mistreating Bella.
00:31:25I was just trying
00:31:27to protect the doggy.
00:31:28Should I apologize?
00:31:30Ah,
00:31:31absolutely not.
00:31:32That bitch is the one
00:31:33who should be apologizing.
00:31:34Maybe she did run off
00:31:36and then I never have
00:31:37to see her pathetic,
00:31:38weasley little face again.
00:31:42What?
00:31:43Hold pressure.
00:31:43Ben,
00:31:44Ben.
00:31:44I need my meds.
00:31:45Dad?
00:31:46Dad.
00:31:47Anna,
00:31:47bring my dad's medication now.
00:31:50Anna,
00:31:51bring my dad's medication now.
00:32:01Anna,
00:32:01do you want to explain
00:32:02where the hell you were?
00:32:03Don't you know
00:32:04how important
00:32:04my father's medication
00:32:05is for him?
00:32:06I'm sorry,
00:32:07Mr. Black.
00:32:08Usually,
00:32:09Mrs. Black,
00:32:10I mean,
00:32:11Celeste,
00:32:12usually makes sure
00:32:13the elder Mr. Black
00:32:14has his pills.
00:32:16I love this.
00:32:17I have your pills,
00:32:18sir.
00:32:19Can't you see
00:32:20I'm trying to eat
00:32:21my breakfast?
00:32:22You're spoiling my mood.
00:32:24Just looking at her
00:32:25makes me lose
00:32:26my appetite.
00:32:27Sir,
00:32:28you really need to take
00:32:29this with your meal.
00:32:30Mm-hmm.
00:32:32And what about Celeste?
00:32:34You know,
00:32:35why isn't she doing
00:32:36her job?
00:32:37Skipping work,
00:32:37huh?
00:32:38Sir,
00:32:39I'm sorry to tell you,
00:32:40but Celeste
00:32:41hasn't been here
00:32:42for a week.
00:32:43Gone?
00:32:44What?
00:32:44Who?
00:32:45Who allowed her
00:32:46to do that?
00:32:47Where the fuck
00:32:47is Celeste?
00:32:51Where did she go?
00:32:54Maybe at the doctor?
00:32:57She hasn't been
00:32:57feeling well lately,
00:32:59bawling a lot,
00:33:00dropping things.
00:33:05Celeste,
00:33:06are you sick?
00:33:09She's sick.
00:33:12I thought with her
00:33:14being so sick
00:33:15you would have known.
00:33:17Byron.
00:33:28Is she sick?
00:33:29Or is this
00:33:29another way
00:33:30for her to
00:33:31humiliate me?
00:33:34Always fallen.
00:33:36So sick.
00:33:37But,
00:33:37see.
00:33:42Looks like someone
00:33:43forgot their house keys.
00:33:47But if I find out
00:33:49that she got you
00:33:51to lie for her,
00:33:52you'll regret it.
00:33:56Better have a good
00:33:57reason for disappearing.

00:45:11I didn't see.
00:45:12What the hell is this?
00:45:14I'm sorry, sir, but I don't know what you mean.
00:45:19This is all part of her plan.
00:45:21It's just a massive game of chess.
00:45:23Celeste, I'm not falling for it.
00:45:26I'm not falling for it.
00:45:27You better never come back.
00:45:34What the hell happened in the tree?
00:45:37When did that happen?
00:45:40What the hell happened in the tree?
00:45:42When did that happen?
00:45:44I'm sorry, sir.
00:45:45I don't know.
00:45:45How?
00:45:46When did it die?
00:45:47I don't really know.
00:45:50Mrs. Black, Celeste, cared for that tree.
00:45:53The gardener said there was something wrong with the roots.
00:45:56It's been two years.
00:45:58The tree hasn't grown a bit.
00:46:00Maybe.
00:46:01It's waiting on you to grow a little bit, too.
00:46:05Well, maybe we should spend more time trying.
00:46:24You are going to be the best mother in the entire world, and I guarantee you are going
00:46:31to be just as beautiful, even with a little baby bump.
00:46:36I love you, Celeste.
00:46:38I always will.
00:46:40I love you, too.
00:46:42I just remembered.
00:46:44The last time I saw her, she was carrying a box and a shovel.
00:46:50I asked her what she was doing with them, and she said it wasn't important.
00:47:03Who told you to touch that tree?
00:47:06Mr. Black.
00:47:07Sir, the tree's dead.
00:47:08I see that.
00:47:10What happened?
00:47:10Uh, well, sir, it looks like someone tried to dig around the roots and probably damage
00:47:17them.
00:47:18The last time I saw her, she was carrying a box and a shovel.
00:47:24Out of my way.
00:47:25Go.
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.
00:48:20I need to find you.
00:48:30Dr. Lee.
00:48:32Dr. Lee treated Celeste.
00:48:40Who are you?
00:48:42Did you help?
00:48:45Did you treat Celeste Black?
00:48:49Celeste Black?
00:48:50Yes, I remember her.
00:48:53She 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.
00:49:09The 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.
00:49:33But 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.
00:50:07She refused.
00:50:09She lost the baby anyway.
00:50:13She lost the baby anyway.
00:50:16She was broken and 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.
00:50:55She'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.
00:51:09Fuck your condolences.
00:51:12You were bribed.
00:51:13Huh?
00:51:13She 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.
00:51:39Step 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.
00:51:49Don't make the fuck you.
00:51:50Right now.
00:51:51Tell me where she is.
00:51:54My wife.
00:51:55She 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.
00:52:07You're all in on it.
00:52:08All of you.
00:52:09It'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 and pretend that you're grieving?
00:52:56Where were you when your wife sat in that cold chair, alone, getting her terminal diagnosis?
00:53:05Where were you again when your wife's body was dipped in day by day and she still came in for
00:53:12her ALS checkup, alone?
00:53:15Where the hell were you when she had her miscarriage, 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, you were not there for any of it.
00:53:34Not a single time.
00:53:38So tell me, what right do you have to be here and play the I love her card now?
00:53:51I love her.
00:53:53Get him out of my sight.
00:53:56Take him to the police.
00:54:06Black, you'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, she's gone.
00:54:17I can't find my wife.
00:54:19Your wife is missing?
00:54:21Mm-hmm.
00:54:23Let'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, Celeste.
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?
00:54:55You're lying.
00:54:57You're lying.
00:54:58You'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.
00:55:16He's totally losing it.
00:55:19Crying.
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!
00:55:39She'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.
00:56:05Please.
00:56:05Please come home.
00:56:13Boss, I'm here.
00:56:15Everything's been taken care of.
00:56:17Post a 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.
00:56:29Just tear this city apart.
00:56:31Find Celeste dead or alive.
00:56:36I want to see her with my own two eyes.
00:57:11Celeste?
00:57:15Celeste?
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.
00:57:44You're such a cutie pie.
00:57:49You're my sir.
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.
00:58:25I'm going to bring her back.
00:58:32I'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.
00:58:52After 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.
00:59:14I'm getting worse.
00:59:16Exactly.
00:59:17And that disloyal little bitch, she 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 and that your mom has everything she needs.
00:59:33Because I'll take care of them.
00:59:36And I'll take care of you.
00:59:38Jesus Christ, have you guys all lost your minds?
00:59:41I'm married.
00:59:43To Celeste.
00:59:44I still am.
00:59:45I always will be.
00:59:47Do not invite another woman into my house.
00:59:50Cannot believe you.
00:59:51How 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.
01:00:06I knew she was plotting something with her little disappearance.
01:00:11Boss.
01:00:12The doctors.
01:00:14Police.
01:00:15The staff at the assisted death center.
01:00:18None of them are actors.
01:00:19No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:00:21None of them lied.
01:00:22No, Chris, this isn't happening.
01:00:25It's all real.
01:00:26I'm so sorry, boss, but Celeste is...
01:00:30No, 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.
01:00:41How can she be dead?
01:00:42She 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.
01:01:01Or she could have your baby.
01:01:03She chose your child.
01:01:07That day at the cemetery, she miscarried, and 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.
01:01:20She arranged for her assisted death at the center.
01:01:24The procedure is...
01:01:26It's done.
01:01:27She's gone.
01:01:31You...
01:01:31You...
01:01:32You...
01:01:32You helped her deceive me.
01:01:34Oh, boss.
01:01:34Boss, 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.
01:01:52Abby is the one who poured red paint on Gloria's grain.
01:01:56Abby is the one who hurt Bella.
01:02:02You're a goddamn liar.
01:02:06Why are you...
01:02:09Why are you protecting her now?
01:02:19Don't you all see?
01:02:21I 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 Senate.
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.
01:03:06I, 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.
01:03:29I ran the names of every rival.
01:03:32Every enemy you have.
01:03:34Nothing.
01:03:36And then I looked up Abby.
01:03:41Abby paid for Gloria to be beaten to death.
01:03:54That's, that's, honey, that'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.
01:04:01That'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.
01:04:31Well, you were so eager to help me after Gloria died.
01:04:39I abandoned her.
01:04:42I punished her.
01:04:45I broke her all for something that she didn't do.
01:04:51I don't, I only did, I only did, because I love you.
01:04:56Shut up with that disgusting crap!
01:04:58Don't stop!
01:05:00You're gonna kill her!
01:05:01Stop!
01:05:07Please, forgive me.
01:05:10You love me right.
01:05:11I can give you everything you've ever wanted.
01:05:15Please.
01:05:16I never loved you, not for a second.
01:05:20You, right now, I want to kill you!
01:05:24Bosh!
01:05:25Bosh, 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.
01:05:33No, Byron.
01:05:34Byron, you can't do this.
01:05:35No, you can't.
01:05:37Please.
01:05:37Please don't call the police.
01:05:39You love me.
01:05:40You love me.
01:05:41You do.
01:05:42Remember 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.
01:05:50I 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.
01:06:00Everyone 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.
01:06:25You, every 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?
01:06:37You'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.
01:06:52No, that, that, that, that, that is, 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.
01:07:06And 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, I did everything, everything to make you abandon her.
01:07:24I thought that once Gloria died, that, that you would, 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.
01:07:34And 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, oh 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 because 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.
01:08:20But I'm not the reason Celeste is dead.
01:08:25You are everything that she loved.
01:08:28You destroyed.
01:08:30Your baby.
01:08:32You killed it.
01:08:34You told yourself that you hated her.
01:08:37But oh, 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.
01:09:08I'll find her.
01:09:09And I will make her forgive me.
01:09:12I have to.
01:09:13I will make her forgive you.
01:10:10I will make her forgive you.
01:10:42I will make her forgive you.
01:10:48She's just mad at you.
01:10:51She'll forgive you like she always does.
01:10:54You'll show her.
01:11:00Celeste!
01:11:04Ariel, open up!
01:11:07Leave now or I will call the police.
01:11:10Leave 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!
01:11:21Come on, you're still my wife!
01:11:23She's still your wife. Why don't you know where she is?
01:11:26I fucked up. I fucked up bad.
01:11:28I just... 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 Celeste out of the maid quarters.
01:11:40I'll do anything that she wants, whatever she wants.
01:11:42Please, please, Ariel, just...
01:11:43You can't!
01:11:45You can't! Don't you get that, you stupid, pathetic asshole!
01:11:48You can't make it up to her.
01:11:50Not ever.
01:11:52She's dead.
01:11:58And you and your family drove her to it.
01:12:03That was a joke.
01:12:04The joke's over.
01:12:06Ariel, I...
01:12:07I can't get any more.
01:12:09Please, 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...
01:12:19I shouldn't have.
01:12:23Celeste!
01:12:24Celeste!
01:12:25Celeste!
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.
01:13:37Celeste wanted to make sure that not even your souls could ever be reunited.
01:13:41Now get out!
01:13:58Please tell me what she is.
01:14:00Just 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?

01:23:32Son, you have to stop this. Celeste is gone. There is nothing you can do to bring her back.
01:23:39You've got to take care of yourself, son.
01:23:49Celeste left this for you.
01:24:02They were up to me and I let you rot before you saw it. But it was her final request.
01:24:08For you to read her last words. Her last wishes.
01:24:16I've given you your life back, Byron. We're even now. I hope hell's willing to take me. That way, when
01:24:24you reach heaven, we'll never have to see each other again.
01:24:28Don't grieve for me. I've given you exactly what you wished for. My absence from your life.
01:24:37I choose to end my life with dignity. But you're not dead yet, and you should live with dignity.
01:24:43If you ever had a single scrap of love for me, please honor my last wishes.
01:24:50Live, Byron. Breathe.
01:24:53We are only granted one life on this earth. And it's up to us to live each moment of it
01:24:59the best we can.
01:25:01If we're lucky, we get to spend those moments with the person we love.
01:25:07I love you, Celeste. I will always love you.
01:25:18I will always love you.
01:25:28And she wanted me to give you this gift.
01:25:32I love you.
01:25:41She fixed it.
01:25:47Can you guys give me a moment?
01:25:49Alone.
01:25:51Alone.
01:26:08Alone.
01:26:20Alone.
01:26:51I saw this.
01:26:57I got your letter, and the necklace I broke, and you fixed it.
01:27:09You were always a better person than me.
01:27:12You always knew how to make the best in things, and that was one of my favorite qualities of
01:27:21yours.
01:27:22We were so happy, and it's my fault that it all went wrong, and you were right to tell
01:27:29the 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, and 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.
01:28:10And whatever heaven has to offer, you deserve it.
01:28:12You deserve it all and more.
01:28:15If one of us has to go to hell for this, let it be me.
01:28:25You deserve it all.
01:28:30So, keep thinking, and mine can go to hell.
01:28:55You
