00:30The one he gave my mom the night he proposed
00:32Drops it into the fire
00:34The flames didn't hesitate
00:35Neither did she
00:37The next morning, my father throws a wedding
00:39Bigger than the one he gave my mom
00:41Every mafia family on the East Coast
00:44Here to watch him crown his mistress
00:46Halfway through dinner
00:47The screen behind the head table turns on by itself
00:51It's my mother
00:51Naked, seven men taking turns
00:53I lunge at the screen
00:55Trying to block it with my body
00:57Turn it off! Turn it off!
00:59Some are filming, some point at the men on screen
01:01Naming them out loud like it's a party game
01:03My father's face goes purple
01:06You like showing off, Isabella?
01:08Someone, take her to the room
01:10I scream, I claw
01:12The housekeeper drags me out
01:13While my mother is hauled the other way
01:16The guest's laughter follows me down the hall
01:18Once a woman's been in the room
01:19She doesn't walk right again
01:21Generous of the dawn, sharing his own wife
01:23A Moralby princess
01:25Bet she moans prettier than club girls
01:27The housekeeper locks me in my bedroom
01:29I sit on the floor
01:30What's the room?
01:32The worst thing this family does to a woman
01:34I don't sleep
01:35By noon, they let me see her
01:38The smell hits me first
01:39Blood
01:40Sweat
01:40Strangers
01:41My mother's eyes are open
01:43Not blinking
01:44Under the thin nightgown
01:45Every inch of her skin is bruised black
01:47Mama!
01:49I turn to scream for the doctor
01:51The door swings open first
01:52My father walks in with Bianca
01:54Bianca makes a tiny gagging sound
01:57And covers her nose
01:58My father looks at my mother
01:59Like she's a stain on the carpet
02:00Isabella
02:01Drop the axe
02:03I gave orders
02:04Nobody actually touched you
02:06Stop performing
02:08I open my mouth to scream
02:09But my mother's hand grips my wrist
02:11Hard
02:12She pulls divorce papers from under her pillow
02:14Already signed
02:15Sign them, Dante
02:16I don't want anything
02:18I just want clear
02:21Don't be stupid, Bella
02:22Your father's dead
02:23Your brother's dead
02:25Where would you even go?
02:27I stare at him
02:28So he remembers
02:30He remembers Uncle Raphael took six bullets
02:32Covering his retreats in the Northern War
02:36That his body is still buried under a warehouse floor in Buffalo
02:41He remembers my grandfather put a gun to his own temple
02:44In front of the commission
02:45Just to force them to back my father up
02:47He remembers the day he married her
02:49Swearing on his blood
02:50I, Dante Marchetti
02:51Will protect Isabella Moray until the day I die
02:54One wife
02:54One love
02:55No exceptions
02:57Until the day I die
02:58Turned out to be three years
03:01Three years in
03:02He came home from a job with Bianca
03:04Said she'd saved his life
03:06Said my mother needed to be understanding
03:08My mother grew tulips
03:10Bianca said the pollen made her sneeze
03:12He tore up every flower by the roots
03:15My mother got pregnant with my baby brother
03:17Bianca said
03:18Something bad would happen to her if the baby was born
03:21That night
03:22My father forced the pills down my mom's throat
03:25My mom bled through her dress onto the rug
03:28Screamed for six hours
03:30He was three rooms away
03:32Listening to Bianca sing
03:33That was the night I understood
03:35My father who used to lift me onto his shoulders to watch fireworks
03:38Was already dead
03:39Like he's afraid she'll say divorce again
03:42My father snatches the papers and throws them in the fire
03:44Then he command
03:46Tonight I'm taking Bianca to the commission gala
03:49Give her your Bulgari set
03:50No
03:51That's my grandmother's
03:52Nobody touches it
03:53Bianca's tears slide down on cue
03:55She's good
03:56I'll give her that
03:57Dante, I'm sorry
03:58I'm not worthy of Moretti heirlooms
04:00Just let them laugh at me
04:01I'm used to it
04:02My father's face turns to stone
04:04This is how you raised our daughter, Isabella?
04:06No respect for Bianca?
04:09Maybe Cleo should move in with Bianca
04:11Learn some manners
04:12My mother's face goes white
04:14She pushes herself upright
04:15Putting her body between me and him
04:17Take the jewelry
04:18All of it
04:19Don't touch my daughter
04:20Bianca's mouth twitches
04:22Half a second of triumph
04:23I see it
04:24Then she wipes her tears
04:26Dante, I'm scared I'll embarrass you tonight
04:29What if Isabella came as my maid?
04:31The Don's wife
04:32As a maid
04:33To his mistress
04:34In front of every family on the East Coast
04:36My father doesn't hesitate
04:38Done
04:38That one word is colder than the knife
04:43I watch my mother change into a grey servant's dress
04:46Every inch of her back is bruised black
04:49I'm crying before I know it
04:51She wipes my face with her thumb
04:53Presses a small gold cross into my palm
04:56Cleo
04:57When I'm gone, fly to LA
04:59Find Luca Moretti
05:00Show him the cross
05:01He'll keep you safe
05:03I know him
05:05The Don of the West Coast
05:07He spoiled me rotten when I was a kid
05:09Until he and my father started hating each other
05:12Nobody ever said why
05:14I close my fist around it
05:15The edges cut my palm
05:16God, my mom fought
05:18When Bianca first arrived
05:20My mother put her in an apartment across town
05:22My father made her walk barefoot in a silk robe
05:24To bring Bianca back herself
05:26After Bianca made my mom lose the baby
05:28Mom came at Bianca with a kitchen knife
05:30My father swore he'd dig up my grandmother's body and dump it if mom touched Bianca again
05:34Three days ago
05:35Someone leaked Bianca's old stripper videos to half the families on the coast
05:39My father decided my mom did it
05:41That night
05:41He locked her in the basement with a dozen men
05:44Let them have her till morning
05:46After that night
05:47Mom stopped fighting
05:49I choke on a sob
05:51Mom
05:53Bianca isn't done with us
05:54At the gala
05:55She makes a show of it
05:56Snaps her fingers at my mother to refill her champagne
05:59Drops a napkin and waits
06:01Smiling
06:02Until my mother kneels to pick it up
06:04Every woman in the room watches
06:05When Bianca's had enough
06:07She walks us out to the gardens
06:09A pond
06:09No witnesses
06:10She flicks one of her diamond earrings into the water
06:13Go get it
06:14You're my maid tonight to Miss Isabella
06:17Go
06:17Get it
06:18My mom looks at her for one long quiet second
06:21A ring won't change what you are, Bianca
06:23You're a mistress
06:24You'll die a mistress
06:29Get the fuck away from her
06:31You little bitch
06:33My mother yanks me into her arms
06:35Bianca's nails rake down my mother's throat instead
06:38And my mother's eyes flash with something I haven't seen in three years
06:42The old Moretti fire
06:43Bianca steps right back into her face
06:45Sneers
06:46All bark Isabella
06:47No bite
06:48Then she turns to me
06:50Smiling
06:53Fine
06:53You don't get the earring
06:55But Cleo's marriage contract is on Dante's desk right now
06:59Want me to recommend the Falcone Man?
07:01Or the Romano Ear?
07:03The Falcone Man is 43
07:05On his fourth wife
07:07The Romano Air is 19
07:09Beat a maid to death last summer for serving cold coffee
07:12I'll get the earling
07:13The water is freezing
07:15She walks down the stone steps fully dressed
07:18Her lips go blue in two minutes
07:22Mama!
07:23Bianca slaps me
07:24Hard
07:25Then backhand
07:25Shut your mouth
07:27You spoiled little
07:28What is going on?
07:29Bianca reacts in a hearty
07:30She grabs my hand
07:31Drives my palm into her own chest
07:33And throws herself backward into the pond
07:35Dante is in the water
07:37Before his jacket is off
07:38He hauls Bianca out
07:39Cradled like glass
07:40My mother is 20 feet away
07:42Drowning
07:43My father didn't even look
07:46Don't let her hit me again
07:47Cleo please
07:49I didn't touch you
07:50She hit me first
07:51And she made my mother get in the water for an earring
07:54Dante looks at my mother instead
07:56Bruised
07:56Half drowned
07:57Lips blue
07:58A waiter
07:59Not family
08:00Not blood
08:00Just a kid trying to keep his job
08:02Jumps in and drags her to the edge just now
08:04For one second
08:05Something flickers behind his eyes
08:07Then Bianca sobs against him
08:09I admit it
08:10I slapped Cleo
08:11Because she called me a bitch
08:12Said I spread my legs for every man
08:15And insulted my dead mother
08:16I was nobody before you Dante
08:18But I have pride
08:19I'd rather drown than be treated like that
08:21Enough
08:21Take Cleo to the basement
08:2220 with the belt
08:24No
08:25My mother throws herself in front of me
08:27She's mine
08:28Whatever she did
08:30Do it to me
08:31Dante looks down at her
08:33Cold as hell
08:3340
08:36The basement
08:37Concrete floor
08:38One bare bulb
08:40My mother kneels
08:41All I can hear is heavy breathing
08:43And the crack of leather through air
08:45Please
08:46She's my mom
08:47Please stop
08:47By the end
08:48She coughs up blood
08:49And collapses face down on the concrete
08:51I drag her back to her room
08:53Pay the family doctor double
08:55To come at midnight
08:55And I pass out beside her before dawn
08:57I wake up because someone is in the room
08:59Dante
09:00He kneels beside the bed
09:01Lifts the back of her nightgown
09:03With hands that are actually shaking
09:04A tear lands on her shoulder blade
09:07He cleans the wounds himself
09:09Bella
09:10Why do you have to be so stubborn?
09:12Bianca's a good girl
09:13She saved my life
09:15You don't know what she did for me
09:17Just let her give me a baby
09:18Then I'll send her away
09:19You and me and Cleo
09:21Back to before
09:22I shut my eyes quietly
09:23There is no before
09:28The next morning
09:28My mother makes me cinnamon rolls
09:30She shouldn't even be standing
09:32But she smiles
09:33Calm
09:33Almost peaceful
09:34That's when I know
09:35This is the last morning
09:36I pick up the roll
09:39Try to smile back
09:40So she doesn't see me breaking
09:43The door slams open so hard
09:45That he just screamed
09:46Dante
09:47Three men behind him
09:48He flips the table
09:49Plates shattered
09:50One of his men steps on the rolls
09:51Like trash
09:52You poisoned her
09:53You bitch!
09:55Two strides
09:56His hand closes around my mother's throat
09:58Slams her against the wall
10:00Her face goes purple in three seconds
10:02Mama!
10:03I lunge
10:04One of his men
10:04Hits me across the face
10:06I slam into the wall
10:07Where's the antidote, Isabella?
10:09I don't know what you're talking about
10:12I haven't been near her in weeks
10:13He throws her across the floor
10:15Like she's nothing
10:16Take them both to the rooftop
10:17The whole family's gonna hear this
10:20The rooftop is packed
10:22When they drag us out
10:23Bianca waits in the middle
10:24Arms covered in bleeding welts
10:26She sees my mother
10:27And crumbles to her knees
10:29Isabella, please!
10:30I'll leave her!
10:31Don't kill me!
10:32Dante gathers her up like glass
10:34Then turns on my mother
10:35Backhands her
10:36Tell me what you gave her
10:38My mother spits blood
10:39Pushes up on one elbow
10:41I haven't been near her in weeks, Dante
10:44Your boys keep me locked in
10:46Ask them
10:48Bianca buries her face in his shoulder
10:51She poisoned me, Dante
10:52Look at my skin
10:55Last night she dragged me up here
10:57Told me to jump or pack
10:59And never come back
11:00The rooftop goes silent
11:02My mother laughs
11:04It's an awful sound
11:05You wanna know where she got the rash, Dante?
11:08Ask her how many men she spread her legs for at those clubs
11:11That's not poison
11:12That's disease
11:14Bianca shrieks
11:15Dante drives his boot into my mother's ribs
11:18She folds in half
11:19The antidote
11:20Now!
11:21Kick me to death
11:22I still won't have one to give you
11:25Dante straightens
11:27You did this to yourself, Isabella
11:29Take Cleo to the room
11:31My mother's head snaps up
11:32Dante!
11:33She's your daughter!
11:34She's a brat who needs to learn her place
11:35She's still my blood
11:37Even if my men ruin her tonight
11:39I'll keep her fed
11:40Move
11:41Two men grab my arms
11:42Start dragging me to the door
11:44I scream
11:44Then my mother throws her body over mine
11:47Tears them off me
11:50I'll give you the antidote
11:52I'll give you anything
11:53Don't touch her!
11:56Dante raises a hand
11:58The men freeze
11:59My mother takes my hand
12:00Her fingers are ice
12:01Cleo, baby
12:02Do you trust me?
12:04Always, Mama
12:05Always!
12:06She squeezes my hand once
12:08The last light in her eyes goes out
12:10The next moment
12:11She wraps her arms around me
12:12Tightly
12:15And jumps
12:19Isabella!
12:20Behind us
12:21He's screaming
12:22The wind takes my breath
12:23The sky tilts
12:24My mother twists in the air
12:25Her body under mine
12:26Her back to the ground
12:28Arms locked around me like a cage
12:30Her last word breathed into my hair
12:34Live
12:35I don't lose consciousness
12:37I wish I did
12:38My mother's body takes all of it
12:41The spine
12:41The ribs
12:42The skull
12:42On the courtyard stone
12:48Blood spreads out from under her
12:50Soaks her dress
12:51Footsteps stumbling down
12:52Dante
12:53He shoves me aside
12:54Hard enough to skin my elbow on the stone
12:55His face drains of color
12:57No
12:58No, no!
12:59Isabella, get up!
13:02He's shaking her
13:03Her head flops to the side
13:06I'll send Bianca away
13:08Tonight
13:08I'll never look at her again
13:11Get up
13:15The dawn of the Marchetti family
13:17On his knees in his wife's blood
13:18Sobbing like a child
13:20I'm sorry
13:21I should have listened
13:22Bella
13:22I should have listened
13:24But my mother doesn't move
13:25She will never move again
13:28Bianca comes down on a man's arm
13:30Kneels beside my mother
13:32Squeezes out two perfect tears
13:35Isabella
13:36How could you?
13:37The corner of her mouth twitches up
13:39I see it
13:39Then she sways backward into the man's arms
13:42Eyes rolling
13:43Voice feather soft
13:44The poison
13:45I can't feel my heart
13:47Dante drops my mother's hand like it burned him
13:49He scoops Bianca up
13:50She melts into his chest with a tiny whimper
13:52Get the doctor
13:53Now!
13:54He's already moving toward the cars
13:56Then he stops
13:56Turns back
13:57Looks at his dead wife on the stone
13:59Bury her
13:59And then he's gone
14:01Completely
14:01I push myself off the ground
14:03Slowly
14:03Everything hurts
14:04My ankle won't take weight
14:06The staff stands a few steps back
14:08Nobody comes to help
14:10Nobody dares
14:12I kneel beside my mother
14:15Slide my arms under her shoulders and knees
14:18She weighs almost nothing
14:19I walk
14:20Blood soaks through my dress
14:21Runs down my arms
14:23I can taste it in my mouth
14:24Past the staff
14:25Past Dante's men
14:26Past the front gate of the Marchetti estate
14:28Mama
14:29I'll live
14:30And every single person who took you from me
14:32Dante
14:33Bianca
14:34Every man who walked out of your bedroom that night
14:36Is going to pay
14:37With interest
14:40Three years go by
14:41The commission's annual gala comes around again
14:439.15 sharp
14:44I walk into the gala on Luca Moretti's arm
14:46Emerald green dress
14:48Hair up
14:48Mama's gold cross hidden against my skin
14:50The whole room turns
14:52Isn't that the Marchetti girl?
14:54No, that's Moretti's daughter
14:57Adopted
14:57Out of L.A.
14:58She looks just like
15:00Don't say it
15:01At the head table
15:02A whiskey glass shatters on marble
15:03I turn my head
15:04Dante is on his feet
15:05Three years has hollowed him out
15:07His suit hangs off his shoulders
15:08Gray at the temples
15:10His eyes used to be the most dangerous thing in any room
15:13Now they look dead
15:14He sees me
15:15Cleo
15:15He doesn't care that everyone is watching
15:17He crosses the ballroom and stops three feet away
15:19I look at him with polite confusion
15:21Good evening, Don Marchetti
15:22Dante's whole body shakes
15:24Cleo, baby
15:25It's daddy
15:26I let my brow furrow
15:27Sir
15:28I'm sorry
15:29Three years ago I fell and hit my head
15:31I don't remember anything from before
15:33I pause for a second
15:34Are you really my father?
15:39Yes
15:41I'm your father
15:42He's crying
15:43The Don of the Marchetti family
15:44Crying in front of everyone
15:45You hate peanuts
15:46One bite and you swell up like a balloon
15:49Your mother used to make you cinnamon rolls
15:50Every Sunday
15:51I make my eyes well up
15:53Make my lips tremble
15:54Take one shaking step forward
15:56And I'm in his arms
15:57Sobbing into his chest
15:58Choking out the word he wants to boast
16:00Daddy
16:01Dante locks his arms around me and breaks
16:05You're home, baby
16:08You're home
16:10He doesn't see the hate in my eyes
16:12He takes me home that night himself
16:15The master bedroom has been kept exactly the way my mother left it
16:18A six-foot oil painting of her above the fireplace
16:21She's smiling
16:22She looks like spring
16:23Her dress is still in the wardrobe
16:24Her perfume still on the vanity
16:26Three years of guilt
16:27Frozen in this room
16:28This was your mother's room
16:30It belongs to you now
16:32Yes, father
16:33After that, the gifts start
16:35Jewelry
16:36Clothes
16:36Cars
16:37Money
16:38Anything I look at twice
16:39He buys
16:40Dante is trying to buy back three years
16:42And the more he spends on me
16:43The faster someone breaks
16:46The door swings open without a knock
16:48While I'm sitting at my mother's vanity
16:50Bianca
16:50Eight months pregnant
16:51One hand on the small of her back
16:53The other braced on the doorframe
16:55She looks around the room
16:56At the gifts piled in the corner
16:57At my mother's painting on the wall
16:59Her face goes white
17:00Then turns to me
17:01Looks down at me like I'm something she's scraped off her shoe
17:04Drop the act
17:05You fooled Dante
17:07You don't fool me
17:09You don't have memory loss
17:12I turn slowly
17:13Tilt my head
17:14So what if I don't?
17:15My father feels guilty
17:17Whatever I say, he believes
17:19And you?
17:21Three years in, still his mistress
17:23That's all you're ever gonna be
17:24The word mistress lands like a slap
17:27You little bitch
17:28Who do you think you're talking to?
17:32She swings on me
17:33I catch her wrist mid-air
17:35Twist
17:35Then I slap her across the face hard
17:39Her cheek goes red and swollen in a heartbeat
17:42You hit me?
17:44How dare you someone?
17:47Somebody!
17:48Then I see Dante at the doorway across the courtyard
17:54Bianca sees Dante across the courtyard too
17:56Her eyes light up
17:57She starts to crumple the same way she crumpled three years ago at the pond
18:01I smile and grab her elbow
18:02Lean in
18:03My lips an inch from her ear
18:04If you're gonna put on a show, Bianca, put on the whole show
18:11Then I kick the back of her knee and shove her in
18:13The slash hits half the courtyard
18:15Bianca's flailing, screaming
18:16The second I see the cloud of red blooming around her thighs
18:19I know it's working
18:20My baby!
18:22Dante!
18:23My baby!
18:24The staff comes running
18:26Two of them haul her out and lay her on the stone
18:28She's clutching her stomach, sobbing like a world is ending
18:33She pushed me in on purpose
18:35Our baby is dead
18:36She didn't make her pay!
18:39Dante is across the courtyard in seconds
18:40He looks at Bianca
18:42At the blood
18:42At me
18:43His face goes from horror to fury
18:45To something darker
18:46All in a couple of seconds
18:49I did it
18:50I don't make him ask
18:51Dante's jaw locks
18:52Why?
18:55She insulted my mother
18:58She said mom was a bad luck bitch
19:00She said mom deserved it
19:01She said she was glad she's dead
19:03I lift my eyes to him
19:05Punish me however you want
19:06But I'm not sorry
19:07Let the tears come
19:08But I don't let them fall
19:09Dante looks at me
19:10At my mother's eyes
19:11In my face
19:12At the way I stand my ground
19:13Exactly the way Isabella Moretti did for 15 years in this house
19:17The rage drains out of him
19:19Three days
19:20House arrest
19:21You stay in your mother's rooms
19:23Dante no!
19:24She killed our baby!
19:26Three days?
19:26That's it?
19:27He looks at her
19:28You insulted my wife
19:30Not another word
19:32For the first time in three years
19:33He looks at her like she's nothing
19:35I bow my head
19:37So they don't see me smirking
19:41Three days later
19:42The second the door unlocks
19:43I walk straight to Bianca's room
19:45The smell hits me from down the hall
19:47It's the exact same smell as my mother's room
19:49Three years ago
19:52Bianca's on the bed
19:53Half a corpse
19:55Gray skin
19:55Greasy hair
19:56Pills everywhere
19:58She sees me
19:59Her eyes go red
20:00Hurls a pillow
20:01You little bitch!
20:02How dare you come in here!
20:04I dodge it easily
20:06You're looking a lot like my mother
20:08In her last days, Bianca
20:10Her body shakes
20:11Her voice comes out a rasp
20:13I should have killed you three years ago!
20:16Should have finished you when I had the chance!
20:18You think this is over?
20:20I killed your mother!
20:21I can kill you too!
20:23I smile, slow
20:24I reach into my sleeve
20:25And pull out a small brown vial
20:27Hold it up between two fingers
20:28Let it catch the light
20:29Recognize this, Bianca
20:32Her face changes
20:33Her pupils shrink
20:35Swallow it
20:36Skin breaks out in welts
20:38You cough up blood
20:39Looks just like poisoning wears off in a day
20:41No real damage
20:42I take a step closer to the bed
20:43Three years ago
20:45You took one of these
20:46You made my father think
20:48My mother poisoned you
20:49You drove her
20:50Her to jump
20:54Bianca stares at me
20:55She lifts her chin
20:56So what?
20:58Isabella's dead?
21:00Rotting for three years
21:01What are you gonna do about it now?
21:02Then a footstep behind the door
21:04To the next room
21:04Dante steps through
21:05His face is grey
21:07Bianca sees him
21:08The color drains out of her
21:09So fast she sways
21:10She throws herself off the bed
21:11On her knees
21:12Grabbing at his pants
21:13Dante!
21:14Listen to me!
21:15She's lying!
21:16She put the vial in my hand
21:18She made me say it!
21:20His backhand snaps her head sideways
21:22Dante is shaking
21:23Like a man who just realized
21:25He killed the wrong person
21:26You faked it
21:27You faked the poison
21:29You let me put my own wife
21:32On that rooftop
21:33You let me
21:34Can't finish
21:35Get her out of my sight
21:39The men come in
21:40Bianca is screaming
21:40Flawing at the floor
21:41Leading streaks of blood
21:42On the marble
21:43The men drag her out
21:44By the way
21:46Dante!
21:48I love you!
21:49I'll do anything!
21:50I'm sorry!
21:51I'm sorry!
21:52I'm sorry!
21:52The door slams
21:53Dante turns to face me
21:55His eyes are bloodshot
21:56His mouth is trembling
21:59You never lost your memory
22:01Did you?
22:02No
22:03I don't blink
22:04From the day she went off that rooftop
22:07I haven't forgotten a single thing
22:10I take a step toward him
22:11I came back for one reason
22:14To make every single one of you pay
22:16For what you did to her
22:18He stares at me
22:20Then he closes his eyes
22:21Let's out a long broken breath
22:23He doesn't say a word
22:24Just turns and walks out
22:29I'm alone in the room
22:30That used to be my mother's
22:32I walk to her painting
22:33Above the fireplace
22:34Look up at her
22:35Not yet, mama
22:36Not even close
22:39Her smile is the same one
22:40I grew up with
22:41Gentle
22:42Warm
22:43And her eyes meet mine
22:45Quiet
22:45Patient
22:46Like she's still here
22:47Cheering me on
22:48At sunrise
22:49A pimp pulls up
22:50To the Marchetti gates
22:51In a black van
22:52He doesn't even come inside
22:54The men bring Bianca out in chains
22:56Throw her in the back
22:57Shut the door
23:02I used the authority
23:03Dante had just signed over to me
23:08Passed sentence on Bianca myself
23:10Then sent word to every family
23:12On the east coast
23:13Bianca Costa is on the list
23:15You hide her
23:16You're at war with the Morettis
23:17The only place left for her
23:19Is the same back room
23:20She crawled out of 15 years ago
23:21This time
23:22She's not crawling out
23:23The news gets to Dante
23:24By mid-morning
23:25He's standing in front of my mother's portrait
23:27When his man brings him the report
23:30He doesn't speak
23:31He just nods once
23:34That's the only answer I get
23:37After that
23:38He goes cold on me
23:39He stops coming to my rooms
23:42We cross paths in the hall
23:43And he barely speaks
23:46But I keep doing what I've been doing
23:49He comes home late
23:50I have hot milk waiting in his study
23:52He works past midnight
23:53I send up cinnamon rolls
23:57He takes them every time
23:59He never says a word
24:02Then my birthday comes
24:03I don't go to his study that day
24:05By evening
24:06He cracks
24:08Asks a maid where I am
24:10She tells him I'm sick in bed
24:12He's at my door in five minutes
24:16I'm propped against the pillows
24:18Pale
24:18Looking at the windowsill
24:21How bad is it?
24:22His voice is rough
24:23Worried almost
24:24I turn to look at him
24:26I just
24:27Let tears fill my eyes
24:29And keep them in
24:29I miss mom today
24:33He follows my eyes
24:34A small vase
24:35A handful of white tulips
24:36Freshly cut
24:37Her favorite
24:38Something in his face cracks
24:40It's your birthday
24:42Tell me what you want, Cleo
24:43Anything
24:46I just want to have dinner with you tonight
24:49Like we used to
24:52He's quiet for a long second
24:54Okay
24:58I drag myself out of bed
25:00And cook him dinner
25:01Every dish mom used to make
25:03Pasta
25:04Roast chicken with lemon
25:05The cinnamon rolls
25:06I sit across from him at the long table
25:08That used to seat three
25:12I pour him whiskey and start talking
25:17Remind him how mom used to chill a whole watermelon in the fridge all day in summer
25:21Waiting for us to come in from the pool
25:25Dante pours himself another whiskey
25:28Then another
25:30Then another
25:32By the fourth glass, his eyes are wet
25:36By the sixth, he's not really hearing me anymore
25:38He folds his arms on the table
25:40Puts his head down
25:41His shoulders start to shake
25:44I'm sorry
25:45I'm so sorry
25:49I shouldn't have believed her
25:50I shouldn't have hurt you
25:52I shouldn't have let it go that far
25:57Cleo, baby
25:58I wasn't a good father
26:00I know
26:00But I'll do better
26:02I swear
26:03Can you
26:05Can you forgive me?
26:08I let out a small laugh
26:09No warmth in it
26:10Dad
26:12You don't really think a few tears wipe it all clean, do you?
26:15His head snaps up
26:17Then what do I have to do?
26:19Tell me
26:20I'll do it
26:22You can go down there and tell her yourself
26:25For half a second, he doesn't get it
26:27Then his face changes
26:29His hand goes to his chest
26:30A wet, choking cough rips out of him
26:33And a stream of black blood splashes onto the white linen
26:37He stares at me
26:39Eyes wide
26:39He gets it now
26:40He really gets it
26:42You destroyed the Moreci family for a whore
26:44You drove my mother off that rooftop
26:47Now you pay
26:53Dante's shaking
26:54Tries to speak
26:55Pops up more black
26:56All over his shirt
26:57All over the table
26:58I stand up and walk to the doors
26:59Pull them open
27:00Luca Moretti is standing on the front steps
27:03A handful of his men behind him
27:04His eyes hold mine for one long second
27:07Then he looks past me
27:08Into the house
27:09Toward the dining room where Dante is dying alone
27:11She'd be proud of you tonight, Cleo
27:13I step aside
27:15Luca's men move past me into the house
27:17Fast, quiet
27:19Outside, the Marchetti guards don't raise their guns
27:22They've already chosen their side
27:23Tony, Dante's underboss, has been on my payroll for two years
27:27By morning, I'll be the new Don
27:29I walk out to the gardens
27:31The white tulips are blooming
27:32Dante tore them up 15 years ago
27:34After mom died, he planted them all back himself
27:37Too late
27:37For a second, I think I see her standing there
27:40A pale dress, smiling at me
27:42Mama, we don't have to hurt anymore
27:47Anyway, I just need to ask herCH
27:47&s
