Short filmTranscript
00:00:02Hmm...
00:00:03Becca, it's midnight.
00:00:04And you're still writing, I know.
00:00:07Listen, I sold your spec script to a producer.
00:00:09He wants changes.
00:00:10What kind of changes?
00:00:12Happy ending.
00:00:13He says tragedy doesn't sell.
00:00:15It's a murder mystery.
00:00:17Someone has to die.
00:00:18Then kill the villain, not the heroine.
00:00:21Call me tomorrow.
00:00:27Everyone's an editor.
00:00:31Done.
00:00:32Silent billionaire kills his fiancΓ©e.
00:00:35No one suspects him.
00:00:37Perfect.
00:00:40I wish I could live inside your world.
00:00:43Just one week.
00:00:45Just to see if I got it right.
00:00:56What the...
00:01:14No, no.
00:01:16No way.
00:01:17This is...
00:01:18This is my script.
00:01:20The engagement.
00:01:22The penthouse.
00:01:23The silent fiancΓ©e.
00:01:25I wrote all of this.
00:01:36Must have been a nightmare.
00:01:46I have seven days.
00:01:48And I'm the only one who knows how the ends.
00:01:58In my script, he's a killer.
00:02:00But right now, he just looks like a guy who's really boring with his coffee.
00:02:06So, what's on your schedule today?
00:02:15I'm the only one who knows how the ends are.
00:02:19I'm the only one who knows how the ends are.
00:02:20Just curious.
00:02:21I might drop by later.
00:02:24He doesn't believe me.
00:02:26He never does.
00:02:27But I'm going anyway.
00:02:36in the script the victim is found at three o'clock i have 13 minutes
00:02:47yeah i smell gas strong like really strong you should send someone
00:02:54i already called 9-1-1 you should wait outside now who are you someone who doesn't want to die

00:03:09one down six to go
00:03:20i don't know what you're
00:03:34how
00:03:36i got lucky
00:03:39he spoke he spoke to me and i lied to his face
00:03:46seven days one down five to go
00:03:55did you hear that assistant almost died yesterday and guess who called 9-1-1 sloan harper the same
00:04:00sloan harper who's engaged to sebastian sterling the guy who never talks the one and only some
00:04:05people are saying she knew it was gonna happen like before it happened that's creepy what's
00:04:09creepier is that her fiance's family had some old feud with the vances like 15 years ago
00:04:13something about kidnapping kidnapping i didn't write that what are they talking about
00:04:21i didn't write this someone else did someone's been in my computer
00:04:34sebastian what happened to your mother
00:04:39i'm sorry
00:04:41what are you i'm not i can't explain not yet
00:04:50he knows i'm going to try to stop it but he doesn't know how
00:05:06what do you want someone else knows the future and they're playing a game with me
00:05:10tomorrow i stop the second murder then i find whoever's been in my computer
00:05:28if it's nothing why hide it
00:05:31my past i grew up in brooklyn my grandmother raised me there's nothing to know
00:05:39isabella vance the victim or maybe not just a victim that tattoo i wrote it into my script
00:05:46for a villain but i didn't write it for isabella someone changed that too
00:05:53you didn't want me to come but you didn't stop me
00:05:58and you're not
00:06:02time to check the brakes
00:06:14black sedan license vance one flat tire the owner doesn't know yet just send someone
00:06:21i'm fine just car sick
00:06:29his vehicle reportedly suffered a mechanical failure but a tow truck's early arrival may have prevented a
00:06:33tragedy police are investigating possible tampering
00:06:36i couldn't let him die
00:06:40because if he died they would blame you
00:06:53thank you
00:06:55you don't have to thank me
00:06:57i know
00:06:59who cut the brake line who tampered with my script that tattoo isabella vance who is she really
00:07:16you asked me to dig into the vance sterling history i found something 15 years ago vance
00:07:22industry and sterling group signed a settlement agreement the details are sealed but there's a
00:07:26clause that's been partially redacted it says in the event of default by sterling the vance family
00:07:29reserves the right to personal scenes accountability from sebastian sterling personal accountability what
00:07:34is that could be anything financial legal or criminal so if someone wanted to destroy
00:07:39sebastian they could engineer a default and then claim he's accountable that's the theory but he benefits
00:07:45isabella's mother elaine vance she's a lawyer she would have known how to write this clause
00:07:50she's been vance attorney for 20 years
00:07:57it's them it's always been them
00:08:02sloan harper you've been someone who's been reading your script who is this the real one
00:08:06the one before all the changes what do you want to warn you or threaten you whichever you prefer
00:08:11get to the point you think you're saving people but every time you intervene the story changes
00:08:15and the next death becomes harder to prevent what are you saying i'm saying you won't save them all
00:08:21and in the end you'll be the one who pays
00:08:25what was that someone who knows too much
00:08:31you're scared yes of what
00:08:39of losing you
00:08:41i didn't plan this i didn't write this but here we are
00:08:52it's done the brakes were cut i know i watched but she called a tow truck
00:08:57he's alive i'm aware she's proving to be resourceful what's the next move the engagement
00:09:02party we don't touch her until then let her think she's winning when she falls he falls with her
00:09:09that's the beauty of love that makes you vulnerable
00:09:17i traced elaine vance's financial records for the past 15 years some accounts in the caveman's not in her name
00:09:21but the money flows to her can you connect her to the kidnapping not directly but she was sterling's personal
00:09:25attorney she resigned one week before the kidnapping then she joined vance group
00:09:28the timing is too perfect she knew it was going to happen maybe she planned it but why what's the
00:09:34motive
00:09:35this personal accountability clause if sterling group defaults the vance's can go after sebastian
00:09:38after the kidnapping sterling's wife disappears the company falls into chaos and the vance's sign this agreement
00:09:43so elaine engineered the kidnapping to control sterling
00:09:45not just control extortion
00:09:46every step the breaks the murders the framing it was all her plan
00:09:49there's a problem
00:09:50the murder details in the script elaine couldn't have written those some of them
00:09:52only i knew
00:09:53you think she has an accomplice
00:09:54someone hacked me has been copying my files
00:09:56that person is the real prophet elaine is just the executor
00:10:08no if they see bodyguards they'll move fast i go see her warn her but i can't tell her the
00:10:12truth her heart can't take it
00:10:16you're too recognizable that face gets noticed everywhere
00:10:21you're joking at a time like this
00:10:23he's the man the world calls cold
00:10:25but what he remembers is how to make me smile

00:18:14in the script
00:18:16isabella is poisoned at the party
00:18:18but the killer isn't sebastian
00:18:19it's elaine

00:18:22why kill her own daughter
00:18:23because isabella knows too much
00:18:26she's a liability
00:18:27elaine wants control of sterling group

00:18:31you make elaine expose herself

00:29:01your mother won't live much longer
00:29:06he's lying
00:29:07i'll find her
00:29:10what will happen to me
00:29:11if you testify against your mother and kendrick
00:29:13you might get a reduced sentence
00:29:14Why should I help you?
00:29:16Not helping me, helping yourself.
00:29:17Your mother was gonna have you killed at this party to silence you.
00:29:20I dismantled the bomb.
00:29:30Your mother will be found.
00:29:32The FBI has already sent a team to Austria.
00:29:35For what?
00:29:36For finding my voice.
00:29:39That was your own voice.
00:29:40I just kept listening.
00:29:42One battle won, but the war isn't over.
00:29:56She's asking for you.
00:29:59For me?
00:30:00She says she won't talk unless you're there.
00:30:11You won.
00:30:13But you didn't beat Kendrick.
00:30:16There's someone behind him.
00:30:19Who?
00:30:21You think a retired judge could access Swiss clinics?
00:30:24Bride detectives control Sterling Group for 15 years?
00:30:27It's just a pawn.
00:30:30Who's the player?
00:30:32I don't know the name.
00:30:35Only the codon.
00:30:36The bishop.
00:30:38The bishop.
00:30:39In chess, the bishop moves diagonally.
00:30:41It never attacks head on.
00:30:43Always from the side.
00:30:44Does Kendrick know who the bishop is?
00:30:45He won't say.
00:30:47He's more afraid of that person than of going to prison.
00:30:50I'm done.
00:30:51But you can keep digging, as long as you're not afraid to die.
00:30:54I'm not afraid to die.
00:30:56I'm afraid of dying without finding the truth.
00:30:59Bishop.
00:31:00Chess.
00:31:00Could be a code name for someone inside the legal system.
00:31:03Kendrick was a judge.
00:31:04Elaine was a lawyer.
00:31:06Their common ground is the legal system.
00:31:09Could the bishop be in the legal system too?
00:31:16Who?
00:31:21Clarence Whitston.
00:31:23Federal High Court judge.
00:31:24He and Kendrick were law school classmates.
00:31:27Whitston's wife is Katherine Sterling's cousin.
00:31:31Family.
00:31:32That's the real bishop.
00:31:33He's been hiding in the safest place possible, the courthouse.
00:31:38We can't investigate him directly.
00:31:40He's a federal judge.
00:31:42Immunity.
00:31:42But we can investigate his money.
00:31:45Find Whitman's financial records.
00:31:47Especially any transfers between him and Kendrick.
00:31:49That requires a court order.
00:31:51We already have one court.
00:31:53The court of public opinion.
00:31:56I have a bigger story for you.
00:31:58A federal judge involved in kidnapping.
00:32:01Money laundering.
00:32:02Attempted murder.
00:32:04Interested?
00:32:05I'll be there in 30 minutes.
00:32:11If we can't bring him down.
00:32:15At least we can show the world who he is.
00:32:22Former Vance Industries legal counsel, Elaine Vance, and retired judge, Edmund Kendrick, have been arrested for kidnapping, money lumbering, and
00:32:32other charges.
00:32:42We're famous.
00:32:49Better than missing.
00:32:53The FBI found my mother.
00:32:57When?
00:32:59Why didn't you say anything?
00:33:01This afternoon.
00:33:03She's in Austria.
00:33:04Alpine sanctuary.
00:33:07Alive.
00:33:09Weak.
00:33:10But alive.
00:33:13That's wonderful.
00:33:15That's wonderful.
00:33:23Catherine Sterling, we're from the FBI.
00:33:25We're here to take you home.
00:33:28Sebastian.
00:33:30Is he alright?
00:33:31He's fine.
00:33:32He's engaged.
00:33:34Her name is Sloane Harper.
00:33:36She helped us find you.
00:33:40Has he spoken?
00:33:43Yes.
00:33:45because of Mrs. Hartman.
00:33:47I want to see them.
00:33:48Arrangements are being made.
00:33:59You used to sit on my lap and tell me a story.
00:34:03Before.
00:34:05I remember.
00:34:06And then one day, you stopped talking.
00:34:12I blamed myself.
00:34:14No.
00:34:15I blamed myself.
00:34:17I heard you being taken.
00:34:19I didn't scream loud enough.
00:34:21You were a child.
00:34:23A child can't stop armed men.
00:34:27But I could have...
00:34:28You could have died, and I would have lost you forever.
00:34:31Your silence kept you alive.
00:34:33That's not weakness.
00:34:35That's survival.
00:34:39And now you're speaking.
00:34:42For her.
00:34:43For yourself.
00:34:45I'm proud of you.
00:34:53You're Sloanen?
00:34:55Yes.
00:34:57Thank you for finding me.
00:34:59Thank you for making him speak.
00:35:03He wanted to speak.
00:35:07I just stayed with him.
00:35:11Your father would be so proud to see you now.
00:35:18He didn't know the truth.
00:35:20He knew.
00:35:22Before he died, he knew.
00:35:24He told me not to tell you.
00:35:28He knew you would need to research.
00:35:31He knew you would destroy yourself.
00:35:36He knew you would destroy yourself.
00:35:36He chose silence to keep you alive.
00:35:42you haven't disappointed him
00:35:47you found love
00:35:49you found your voice
00:35:52that's enough

00:55:49but I heard the mechanics
00:55:51say the brakes were cut
00:55:53cleanly
00:55:54it's the king
00:55:55he's sending a message
00:55:56then we answer
00:55:59Marcus
00:56:00find every connection
00:56:01Edward Sterling had
00:56:02every business partner
00:56:02every rival
00:56:03everyone who might want to
00:56:04sit in that empty chair
00:56:05you're angry
00:56:07yes
00:56:07good
00:56:08use it
00:56:09Edward Sterling
00:56:10had three major partners
00:56:12one is dead
00:56:13one is in prison
00:56:14the third
00:56:15is a ghost
00:56:16no records after 1990
00:56:18a ghost?
00:56:19someone who erased himself
00:56:20but I found a trail
00:56:21he moved money
00:56:21through a series of shell companies
00:56:23the last transaction
00:56:23was last week
00:56:24where?
00:56:25to a bank in Liebenstein
00:56:25and from there
00:56:26to a private account
00:56:28in Switzerland
00:56:28under the name
00:56:29M. Sterling
00:56:30M. Sterling
00:56:31Margaret?
00:56:32or someone using her name
00:56:33but Margaret is in prison
00:56:34so either she has a partner outside
00:56:36or the king is not Margaret
00:56:37then who?
00:56:39what if Edward didn't start
00:56:41the organization alone?
00:56:42what if there was a third person?
00:56:43there's no record of a third
00:56:44then we make a record
00:56:45we flush him out
00:56:46how?
00:56:47we announce that we've found
00:56:48Edward's second box
00:56:49that we know the king's identity
00:56:50and we wait
00:56:51that's dangerous
00:56:52everything about this
00:56:53has been dangerous
00:56:54do it
00:56:55you've been through so much
00:56:56what's next for you?
00:56:58we're going to find the person
00:56:59who calls himself the king
00:57:02and we're going to
00:57:02bring him down
00:57:03do you know who he is?
00:57:06we have evidence

00:57:11they're bluffing
00:57:12are you sure?
00:57:14they have the second box
00:57:14was empty except for a photo
00:57:15then why are they so confident?
00:57:17because they want us
00:57:18to make a mistake
00:57:18then we don't make a mistake
00:57:20we end this
00:57:21quietly

00:57:45she's gone
00:57:47the king broke her out
00:57:48why?

00:57:52who knows who he is
00:57:53and now he has him
00:57:57the game
00:57:57has changed

00:59:37they're watching us
00:59:38making sure we stay put
00:59:39we're waiting for reinforcements
00:59:41they know we're here
00:59:42but they're not moving yet
00:59:44why?
00:59:46because they're waiting for something
00:59:47or someone
00:59:48the king wants us to find him
00:59:50but on his terms
00:59:53can't sleep
00:59:55too much on my mind
01:00:00I never told you about the night I was taken
01:00:03I was alone
01:00:04Sebastian was at school
01:00:06your mother
01:00:07Helen was supposed to pick me up
01:00:09but she never came
01:00:10my mother?
01:00:11she was working with me
01:00:13trying to expose the organization
01:00:15that's why they took me
01:00:17to silence her
01:00:19my mother was fighting
01:00:21she was braver than any of us
01:00:24she died trying to bring them down
01:00:26how do you know she died?
01:00:29Margaret told her
01:00:31in the clinic
01:00:32she came to gloat
01:00:33your mother loved you
01:00:35she hid you with Margaret
01:00:36because she thought Margaret would protect you
01:00:39she didn't know Margaret was already one of them
01:00:43then I'll finish what she started
01:00:45for her
01:00:46for you
01:00:47for Sebastian
01:00:55the coordinates point to solid mountain
01:00:58no visible structure
01:01:04that's the point
01:01:05it's underground
01:01:09there's something down there
01:01:10big
01:01:15explosives ready
01:01:16do it
01:01:20it's time
01:01:21be careful
01:01:21it's too quiet
01:01:31they knew we were coming
01:01:33they always do
01:01:39they've been watching us the whole time
01:01:41Margaret really was his partner
01:01:42she wasn't just his partner
01:01:46she was the one who built this place
01:01:48downloading everything
01:01:49might take a few minutes
01:01:53we triggered something
01:01:59they were waiting for us
01:02:02then we fight through
01:02:10they're falling back to a lower level
01:02:11we got everything
01:02:12let's go
01:02:15they'd rather destroy it than let us have it
01:02:17but we already have it
01:02:18when we find out who the king is
01:02:20tonight
01:02:31congratulations
01:02:32you found my castle
01:02:33but the king is not a place
01:02:35the king is an idea
01:02:37you want to know who I am
01:02:39but knowing won't save you
01:02:41it will only make you a target
01:02:44that's it?
01:02:44a riddle?
01:02:48there's more
01:02:49financial records
01:02:50communications
01:02:51member lists
01:02:53wait
01:02:54go back
01:02:56they listed him as deceased
01:02:58why?
01:02:59maybe they think he's dead to them
01:03:01or they faked his death
01:03:03or the king is someone else
01:03:05pretending to be Kendrick
01:03:13the king is playing with us
01:03:16then we stopped playing his game
01:03:18how?
01:03:19he changed the rules
01:03:21what are you doing?
01:03:22sending a message
01:03:22to every name on that list
01:03:25the king is dead
01:03:26long live the truth
01:03:29that's bold
01:03:30that's the point
01:03:40you slept?
01:03:43no
01:03:46any responses?
01:03:49three
01:03:50two threats

01:04:01of course it is
01:04:04I'm going
01:04:06I know
01:04:11you're not gonna stop me?
01:04:13would it work?
01:04:15no
01:04:18then I'll be outside
01:04:20with a sniper rifle
01:04:23fair enough
01:04:24you're going to meet him?
01:04:26yes
01:04:28he'll try to kill you
01:04:30probably
01:04:32and you're still going?
01:04:34he has Margaret
01:04:35he has answers
01:04:37I need both
01:04:37your mother would be proud of you
01:04:39but she'd also be terrified
01:04:41I'm not my mother
01:04:43I won't disappear
01:04:44no
01:04:45you won't
01:04:46because you have Sebastian
01:04:48and you have something
01:04:49my daughter never had
01:04:51a chance to fight back
01:04:56I know you're in there
01:04:58you came
01:04:59where's the king?
01:05:02he's here
01:05:08you faked your death
01:05:11the king doesn't die
01:05:13he only changes his face
01:05:14you've been very persistent
01:05:16Sloane
01:05:17more persistent than anyone expected
01:05:20what do you want?
01:05:21the same thing you do
01:05:23an end to this
01:05:24then end it
01:05:26surrender
01:05:29I didn't mean that kind of end
01:05:33you have two choices
01:05:35join us
01:05:35or disappear like your mother
01:05:40there's a third choice
01:05:42and what's that?
01:05:50she brought friends
01:06:01never
01:06:06are you hurt?
01:06:07no
01:06:08but they're getting away
01:06:09let them
01:06:10we have the church
01:06:12we have witnesses
01:06:13we have recordings
01:06:16you recorded everything?
01:06:18Marcus's idea
01:06:22they won't get far
01:06:24no
01:06:25they won't
01:06:33we have Kendrick's last known location
01:06:36he's heading towards the Italian border
01:06:38Margaret is with him
01:06:39then cut him off
01:06:41we're trying
01:06:42but he has resources
01:06:44private planes
01:06:46safe houses
01:06:47he could be anywhere
01:06:48he'll go to ground
01:06:49somewhere familiar
01:06:50somewhere he feels safe
01:06:51like where?
01:06:52his family's estate
01:06:53in Austria
01:06:55I'll coordinate with Austrian police
01:06:57you're sure?
01:06:58I would hide there
01:06:59it's remote
01:07:00hard to find
01:07:01easy to defend
01:07:02then let's go
01:07:05how many guards?
01:07:07at least a dozen
01:07:09maybe more inside
01:07:11we need a distraction
01:07:12the power grid
01:07:14if we cut it
01:07:15they'll come out to check
01:07:17do it
01:07:29she's here
01:07:30I can feel her
01:07:31then kill her
01:07:32now
01:07:34two guards at the door
01:07:35one on the balcony
01:07:38I'll take the balcony
01:07:39no
01:07:39I will
01:07:43who's there?
01:07:46me
01:07:49you just don't know when to quit
01:07:52neither do you
01:07:56going somewhere?
01:07:58you won't shoot
01:07:59you won't shoot an old woman
01:08:01watch me
01:08:15it's over
01:08:17is it?
01:08:18you still don't know
01:08:19who the king is
01:08:20do you?
01:08:21I know it's you
01:08:23the king is a title
01:08:24and I was never the king
01:08:33there's someone else
01:08:36who is the king?
01:08:39you really want to know?
01:08:41that's why I'm here
01:08:45then look in the mirror
01:08:46the king is an idea
01:08:48Sloan
01:08:48anyone can be king
01:08:49you
01:08:50me
01:08:50Sebastian
01:08:51even that dead mother
01:08:52of yours
01:08:52the point isn't who sits
01:08:54on the throne
01:08:54it's that the throne exists
01:08:56you're saying the organization
01:08:57has no leader?
01:08:58I'm saying the leader
01:08:59is whoever holds the power
01:09:00and power shifts
01:09:01Margaret founded it
01:09:02Edward funded it
01:09:03I executed it
01:09:04but the king?
01:09:05there is no king
01:09:06there's only the game
01:09:07then I'll end the game
01:09:09you can't
01:09:10because as long as people
01:09:11want power
01:09:12the game continues
01:09:17what did he say?
01:09:18there is no king
01:09:20but anyone can be king
01:09:22then we make sure
01:09:23no one ever wants to
01:09:25we change the game
01:09:33come to say goodbye?
01:09:35come to ask one question
01:09:38what?
01:09:39why did you do it?
01:09:41not the organization
01:09:43not the power
01:09:44why did you raise me
01:09:45if you were just going to
01:09:46destroy me?
01:09:47because you were the only thing
01:09:48left of her
01:09:48of my daughter
01:09:50I loved Heli
01:09:51more than anything
01:09:52when she died
01:09:53I hated myself
01:09:54and I hated you
01:09:55for looking like her
01:09:56so I raised you
01:09:57to be strong
01:09:57to survive
01:09:58I told myself
01:09:59I could destroy you
01:10:00but I couldn't
01:10:01I never could
01:10:01you had a strange way
01:10:02of showing love
01:10:03I didn't know
01:10:04any other way
01:10:08I'm sorry
01:10:09I don't forgive you
01:10:13but I understand
01:10:15alright
01:10:16no
01:10:17but I will be
01:10:19where to?
01:10:21home
01:10:27what now?
01:10:28now we live
01:10:31we've spent so long
01:10:32fighting
01:10:32I want to spend
01:10:33the rest of my time
01:10:34loving
01:10:35that sounds like
01:10:36a plan
01:10:40do you think
01:10:40we'll ever be
01:10:41completely safe?
01:10:42no
01:10:43but we'll be together
01:10:46that's enough
01:10:55some stories
01:10:56are just too hard
01:10:58to tell
01:10:58but too important
01:10:59to forget
01:11:01writing again?
01:11:02always
01:11:04what's the next story?
01:11:06ours
01:11:06but with a happy ending
01:11:07I like happy endings
01:11:09then let's go live one
01:11:18the game isn't over
01:11:19it's just changed boards
01:11:23checkmate Mrs. Harper
01:11:24but the next game
01:11:26is mine
01:11:33we've identified
01:11:34most of the organization's members
01:11:35some are in custody
01:11:36some have fled
01:11:37but one name keeps appearing
01:11:39a code name
01:11:40ghost
01:11:41ghost
01:11:41we already caught Margaret
01:11:42this is different
01:11:43the ghost appears
01:11:44in communications
01:11:45dating back to before
01:11:45Margaret was born
01:11:46whoever this is
01:11:47they've been pulling
01:11:47strings for decades
01:11:48Edward started the organization
01:11:50with someone
01:11:50not Margaret
01:11:51someone older
01:11:52the Sterling family archives
01:11:53this photo was taken
01:11:54in 1923
01:11:55Edward Sterling is here
01:11:56as a child
01:11:57next to him
01:11:57an older man
01:11:58labeled the founder
01:11:59who is he?
01:12:00no records
01:12:01but he has descendants
01:12:02one of them might still be alive
01:12:06you're back
01:12:08I need to know about the ghost
01:12:13you don't want to go there
01:12:14I didn't want to be in this fight at all
01:12:17but here I am
01:12:18the ghost is not a person
01:12:20it's a bloodline
01:12:20the Sterling family had a secret
01:12:22they weren't the only ones in power
01:12:23there was another family
01:12:24older
01:12:25richer
01:12:25they called themselves
01:12:26keepers of what?
01:12:27of the throne
01:12:27the king's throne
01:12:28every generation
01:12:29one keeper sits as the king
01:12:30Edward was supposed to be a keeper
01:12:31but he rebelled
01:12:32he tried to dismantle the system
01:12:34that's why they took Catherine
01:12:36that's why they killed Helen
01:12:36to remind him
01:12:37he really controlled everything
01:12:38the king is still out there
01:12:40the king is always out there
01:12:41it's a title
01:12:42he passes from parent to child
01:12:44and the current king
01:12:46is someone very close to you
01:12:48thanks, Lona
01:12:49who has been watching you
01:12:50your entire life
01:12:51who had access to everything
01:12:52who could manipulate everyone
01:12:53no
01:12:55she's dead
01:12:58is she?
01:13:02good luck
01:13:03the king is a bloodline
01:13:05and they've been watching me
01:13:06my whole life
01:13:09who?
01:13:11he said someone close to me
01:13:13the only person who fits
01:13:15is Margaret
01:13:15but she's in prison
01:13:16or someone pretending to be her
01:13:18I overheard
01:13:19there's something I never told you
01:13:25Margaret had a twin sister
01:13:26she died young
01:13:27or so everyone thought
01:13:28but before she died
01:13:29she had a child
01:13:29a son
01:13:30where is he now?
01:13:31I don't know
01:13:32but your mother once said
01:13:32that Margaret wasn't
01:13:33the only one we should fear
01:13:34the king is Margaret's nephew
01:13:35he's been hiding in plain sight
01:13:37then we find him
01:13:37Margaret's sister
01:13:38Eleanor
01:13:39she died in 1955
01:13:40officially
01:13:40but her son Charles
01:13:42emigrated to the United States
01:13:43in 1970
01:13:44he changed his name
01:13:45became a lawyer
01:13:46a very powerful lawyer
01:13:47Harold Finch
01:13:49Finch was witness and's mentor
01:13:50he retired years ago
01:13:51lives in seclusion
01:13:52where?
01:13:54upstate New York
01:13:55a private estate
01:13:58then we pay him a visit
01:14:02no guards

01:14:31that was Margaret list
01:14:32undying
01:14:33you're just as guilty

01:16:02he faked his death
01:16:04he's been hiding in plain sight

01:16:13natural causes
01:16:14he knew
01:16:15he gave us the key
01:16:16and then he killed himself
01:16:17or someone killed him
01:16:18the body is being examined
01:16:19but if he was the last king
01:16:21then maybe it's over
01:16:22no

01:18:04Sloane?
01:18:05I brought coffee
01:18:14she's alive

01:19:20then let's begin
01:19:22we are receiving reports

01:19:56I was dead
01:19:57but she couldn't kill me
01:19:58she locked me away
01:20:00in a facility in Austria
01:20:02the same one
01:20:03where they kept Catherine
01:20:04I never knew

01:20:44the king
01:20:45the real king
01:20:46is still out there
01:20:47Margaret was just a pop
01:20:48Finch was just a figurehead
01:20:49the king is the one
01:20:50who controls the money
01:20:51and that person
01:20:52has not been caught
01:20:52who is it?
01:20:53I don't know
01:20:55but I know where to find out
01:20:57this is an address

01:20:59it's where the king's
01:21:00accountants meet
01:21:03we'll go
