FunTranscript
00:00My husband had spent six months fighting a rival family for territory along the Gulf Coast.
00:05When he came home, a heavily pregnant young woman was at his side.
00:09I asked him over and over,
00:10Is the baby yours?
00:12He dropped to his knees at my feet in front of the entire family.
00:15But all he said was,
00:16I'm sorry, I can't tell you.
00:17After six months of family war, my husband, Rafe DeLuca, finally came home alive.
00:23Twelve black sedans rolled into the estate one after another.
00:26I stood on the steps of the main house with Sam in my arms.
00:29A car door opened, Rafe stepped out, helping a young woman whose belly was already showing.
00:34My expression hardened all around me.
00:37The wives of the capos who had come to welcome the dawn home broke into shocked whispers.
00:41The moment Rafe saw me, his gaze flickered away.
00:44Nora, let me explain.
00:46I gave a cold laugh, turned around, and walked away.
00:49Sam looked at his father, then at the woman beside him.
00:52Mommy, who's that lady next to Daddy?
00:54You don't have a Daddy. Your Daddy's dead.
00:56A commotion broke out behind me.
00:58Rafe hurried after us, his dress shoes striking sharply against the pavement.
01:02He cut in front of me, and in full view of every capo, every capo's wife, and every soldier in
01:08the family dropped straight to his knees.
01:10Nora, let me explain.
01:12I shifted Sam to my other arm and looked down at Rafe.
01:15We hadn't seen each other in six months.
01:17I never imagined this was how we'd meet again.
01:20Go ahead. I'm listening.
01:21The young woman came over, too.
01:23She stopped beside Rafe, both hands protectively cupping her stomach.
01:28Donna, my name is Lily. Lily Carter.
01:31The Caruso family attacked the town where I live.
01:33My whole family was killed.
01:35Don DeLucco got me out of a safe house.
01:37Whose baby is it?
01:39Lily lowered her head and said nothing.
01:41I turned back to Rafe.
01:42He knelt there with his head bowed and his hands braced on his knees,
01:45as if someone had ripped the spine out of him.
01:48I asked you whose baby it is.
01:51Don't ask. I really can't tell you.
01:53A gasp suddenly came from the crowd.
01:54Bianca DeLuca, Rafe's mother, raised her voice.
01:58Her belly's already that big.
01:59Do you really have to ask? Isn't it obvious?
02:02Sounding almost excited, I crouched down with Sam in my arms.
02:06Rafe, I'm only going to ask you three things.
02:10Rafe's Adam's apple bobbed.
02:12First, is the baby yours?
02:17Second, what exactly happened between you and her on the Gulf Coast?
02:22Third, before you brought her home,
02:24did you ever think about how you were going to tell me?
02:27I did. I just never figured out how to say it.
02:30I laughed once, then I stood and hitched Sam higher in my arms.
02:34Sam wrapped both little arms around my neck
02:36and buried his face against my shoulder.
02:38I stepped around Rafe, still kneeling on the ground,
02:40and headed for the main house.
02:41Yes. Bianca spoke to the Capo's wives beside her,
02:44not quite loudly enough to be called shouting,
02:47but more than loudly enough for me to hear.
02:50Who does she think she is acting like that?
02:52My son spent six months fighting enemies out there.
02:57So what if you brought a woman home?
02:59Adana can't afford to be this jealous.
03:01My steps paused.
03:02I didn't look back until I had reached the top of the stairs.
03:05Rafe was still kneeling where I'd left him,
03:07his knees seemingly nailed to the ground.
03:10Lily was still there too, looking down at him.
03:12Get up.
03:13You're the Don.
03:15How can you kneel to that woman?
03:17She's not worth it.
03:18I carried Sam into the main house.
03:20He leaned close to my ear and whispered,
03:22Mommy, why won't Daddy get up?
03:25Because Mommy hasn't told him you can.
03:26Oh. Who's that lady?
03:28I kicked the bedroom door open,
03:30set Sam down,
03:31then crouched so we were eye to eye.
03:32Your father brought her back with him.
03:35Starting today, she's living here with us.
03:37Then whose baby is in her tummy?
03:39Good question, kid.
03:41Mommy would like to know too.
03:43That afternoon,
03:44Vincent Marino personally delivered the paperwork for Lily's stay.
03:47Vincent was the DeLuca family's consigliere.
03:50The paperwork stated that Lily was under the Don's personal protection
03:53and would stay temporarily at the estate.
03:56Without the Don's permission,
03:58no one was allowed to look into her background.
04:00The paperwork had barely landed on my desk
04:02when Bianca arrived with several capos' wives.
04:05They didn't even knock before coming upstairs.
04:08Bianca pushed open the door to Sam's room
04:10and walked around inside.
04:13This room is perfect.
04:14It's bright and airy,
04:16just what a pregnant woman needs.
04:17I pulled Sam to my side
04:19and leaned against the doorframe,
04:20watching her.
04:22Mrs. DeLuca, this is Sam's room.
04:27So move the boy somewhere else.
04:28What's the big deal?
04:29She's pregnant.
04:30Is it really so much to ask that he give up a room for her?
04:33Before I could answer,
04:34a voice came from behind me.
04:36Lily stood in the hallway,
04:37holding a canvas duffel bag.
04:39Ma'am, I can stay anywhere.
04:40Please don't make things difficult for the Donna.
04:43All I need is a bed.
04:45Bianca grabbed Lily's hand
04:47and pulled her to her side.
04:48The way she did it,
04:49anyone would have thought
04:50she was protecting her own daughter.
04:54What are you scared of?
04:55I'm here.
04:56Rafe brought you home.
04:58You think the DeLuca family
04:59is going to leave you sleeping in the street?
05:01The other women nodded along.
05:03One capo's wife even tried to lecture me.
05:06Nora, you're the Donna.
05:08You need to be more generous.
05:10Since you're so generous,
05:11why don't you take Lily home with you?
05:13She shut her mouth.
05:15That night,
05:16the estate held a welcome home dinner.
05:18Rafe came over carrying three plates
05:20and carefully set them in front of Sam
05:22and me.
05:23I sat down with Sam.
05:24I had barely picked up my fork
05:26when Lily approached with her own plate.
05:27She didn't dare sit beside me.
05:29She just stood across the table,
05:31looking at me expectantly.
05:32Sam glanced at her,
05:34then at me,
05:34and tugged lightly on my sleeve.
05:36I looked up at her but said nothing.
05:38Only then did she sit,
05:39stiff and awkward,
05:40keeping her head down
05:41as she ate in silence.
05:42Bianca came over with her plate.
05:44She dropped into the seat next to Lily
05:46and placed a large piece of stewed meat
05:47on Lily's plate.
05:49Eat more.
05:50You're eating for two now.
05:52My fork paused.
05:53Rafe sat across from me,
05:54watching me cautiously.
05:56I ignored him
05:57and kept cutting Sam's meat.
05:58Bianca smiled at Lily again.
06:00Rafe was a big, strong boy
06:02even when he was little.
06:03This baby will probably take after him too.
06:05I finished my meal calmly
06:07and set my napkin on the table.
06:09As I passed Rafe,
06:10I tossed out one word.
06:13Outside.
06:15There was a stretch of stone wall
06:17behind the estate's private chapel.
06:19I shoved him back against it.
06:21Is the baby yours or not?
06:23Rafe leaned against the wall
06:24with his head down,
06:25refusing to meet my eyes.
06:26After a long silence,
06:27he said,
06:28Give me a little more time.
06:29How much time?
06:30Didn't you see how your mother
06:31moked me today?
06:32Are you deaf or are you blind?
06:34If Lily is your mistress,
06:36then say it to my face.
06:37I'll step aside
06:38and let you have each other.
06:40He went silent again.
06:41I turned and walked away.
06:43Early the next morning,
06:44I went to the soldiers
06:45who had returned from the fighting
06:46with Rafe and asked about Lily.
06:48One soldier's expression
06:49changed instantly.
06:51Donna, don't ask.
06:52The Don gave a direct order.
06:53Please don't push a pregnant woman
06:55into a corner.
06:55With that,
06:56they turned and left.
06:57I stood in the garden,
06:58the sun beating down so fiercely
07:00that my scalp prickled from the heat.
07:02Then someone called my name from behind.
07:04Donna.
07:05I turned and saw Gabriel,
07:06one of Rafe's most trusted men.
07:11Gabriel pulled me into the shade
07:12and lowered his voice.
07:13Donna,
07:14the day Lily arrived in New Orleans,
07:16the first place she went
07:18was the Don's office.
07:19When we came out of the meeting room later,
07:21she was already sitting in the Don's car.
07:23You know the Don isn't that kind of man.
07:25Just give him a little more time.
07:26Please don't assume the worst.
07:27I looked at him without saying anything.
07:29He seemed to realize
07:30there was no reasonable way
07:31not to assume the worst.
07:32He gave me an awkward smile and left.
07:34Back in my room,
07:35I opened the safe
07:36and pulled out the letters Rafe
07:38had sent me from the Gulf Coast
07:39over the past six months.
07:41There were eight in total.
07:43The first three were completely normal.
07:45Starting with the fourth,
07:46his tone changed.
07:47Looking back now,
07:48that must have been
07:49when something happened.
07:50Sam ran in
07:51and leaned against my knees,
07:53tipping his face up at me.
07:54Mommy,
07:55what are you reading?
07:57Some old debts.
07:58Within days,
08:00people in the family
08:00had started calling me
08:01a jealous bitch behind my back.
08:03One afternoon,
08:04I passed the storage room
08:05behind the chapel.
08:06Several Capo's wives
08:07were inside sorting donations
08:09for a charity sale,
08:10talking animatedly.
08:11The Don spent six months
08:13fighting a war.
08:14So what if he has a mistress?
08:15Who does she think she is?
08:17Glaring at everyone all day?
08:19That poor girl is pregnant
08:21and has already been through enough.
08:23And Nora acts like
08:24she wants to throw her out
08:25on the street.
08:26I pushed the door open.
08:27The room went silent instantly.
08:29The three women each grabbed a box
08:31and hurried out.
08:33Lily,
08:33on the other hand,
08:34kept her head down
08:35and stayed out of trouble.
08:36She helped with whatever work
08:37she could around the estate.
08:39Whenever she saw me
08:40walking past with Sam,
08:42she lowered her head
08:42and called me Donna,
08:44always careful and respectful.
08:46Several of the older women
08:47at the estate
08:48praised her for being
08:49so well-mannered
08:50and spoke about her
08:51with obvious affection.
08:52Once,
08:53Bianca took Lily's hand
08:54right in front of me
08:55and said,
08:55Good girl,
08:56don't be afraid.
08:58No one here
08:58is going to bully you.
08:59I tried asking Lily
09:00directly once.
09:01That day,
09:02she was in the kitchen
09:03arranging washed fruit
09:04on a plate.
09:05I walked over
09:06and helped her sort it.
09:07She looked up at me
09:08and her eyes brightened.
09:09The more I looked
09:09at those clear,
09:10bright eyes,
09:11the more confused I became.
09:13Lily didn't look at me
09:14the way a mistress
09:14looked at a wife.
09:15Lily, where are you from?
09:18A small town near the Gulf Coast.
09:20What were your parents' names?
09:23They died a long time ago.
09:24How did you meet Rafe?
09:30I asked again,
09:31more softly.
09:32Lily,
09:33is the baby
09:34you're carrying Rafe's?
09:36All the color
09:37drained from her face
09:38as if she'd been shot
09:39point-blank.
09:40Donna,
09:41just tell me the truth.
09:42Tears rushed into her eyes.
09:44One hand covered her stomach
09:45while the other
09:46braced against the edge
09:47of the sink.
09:48Donna,
09:48are you going to force me
09:49to leave?
09:49Then she clutched her belly
09:50and hurried out of the kitchen.
09:52She couldn't move quickly
09:53and Bianca happened
09:54to see her rushing out.
09:55I stood there,
09:56stunned.
09:57That afternoon,
09:58Bianca showed up
09:58at my bedroom door
09:59with several Capo's wives.
10:01The four of them
10:01stood in a row
10:02like debt collectors.
10:03She's pregnant
10:04and you still made her cry.
10:06What exactly
10:06are you trying to do?
10:07Sam stood beside my leg,
10:09hugging my knee.
10:09I pulled him behind me.
10:11If you're so worried
10:12about her,
10:13Mrs. DeLula,
10:14then move her
10:14into the room
10:15next to yours
10:15and take care
10:16of her yourself.
10:17Otherwise,
10:18stop gossiping
10:19and keep your mouth shut.
10:20Before any of them
10:20could answer,
10:21I shut the door.
10:22At the end of the month,
10:23the family held
10:24a charity committee meeting.
10:25Bianca stood at the head
10:26of the long table
10:27to speak.
10:28Near the end,
10:29her tone suddenly shifted.
10:30Some women are so consumed
10:32by jealousy
10:33that they forget
10:33the family entirely.
10:35A real Donna
10:36should never make life
10:37difficult for a homeless
10:38pregnant woman,
10:39much less make herself
10:40a laughing stock
10:40in front of the whole family.
10:42My back went rigid
10:43and I started to stand.
10:44Under the table,
10:45Rafe grabbed my wrist
10:46and held me in place.
10:47I tried to pull away,
10:48but he wouldn't let go.
10:49I turned toward him.
10:50Let go.
10:51Not now.
10:52She's accusing me
10:53in front of everyone.
10:54I know.
10:55You know and you're still
10:56stopping me
10:56from defending myself?
10:58His hand didn't move.
10:59Anger burned through me.
11:00The moment the meeting ended,
11:02I went straight
11:02to the records room
11:03Vincent managed.
11:05I want to see Lily's file.
11:07I'm sorry, Donna.
11:09The file has been sealed.
11:10The Don also gave
11:12strict orders
11:12that not a single detail
11:13about Lily is to be disclosed.
11:15Who handled Lily's file?
11:20Don Salvador.
11:21Don Salvatore DeLuca,
11:23Rafe's father
11:23and the former head
11:24of the family,
11:25had stepped down
11:25three years earlier.
11:27He no longer involved himself
11:28in the family's
11:29day-to-day affairs
11:29and only stepped in
11:30when something serious happened.
11:32I turned and left
11:33the records room
11:33to find him.
11:34When Don Salvatore saw me,
11:36a conflicted look
11:36crossed his face.
11:37Nora, take my advice.
11:39Let this go.
11:40Stop making things
11:41difficult for her.
11:43I clenched my teeth.
11:45I hated letting it go
11:46but I turned
11:46and left anyway.
11:47I had just reached
11:48the estate gates
11:49when my brother Jake's
11:50car came tearing through them.
11:51He was the heir
11:52to the Valenti family
11:53and before I married Rafe,
11:55he'd always been the one
11:56who spoiled me most.
11:57The car hadn't even
11:58come to a full stop
11:59before he shoved
12:00the door open
12:01and jumped out.
12:02He rolled up his sleeves,
12:03veins standing out
12:04on his arms,
12:05his face dark with fury.
12:07Nora, just wait here.
12:08I'm going inside
12:09to kill Rafe right now.
12:10He pulled out a gun,
12:11looking ready
12:11to murder someone.
12:13Not yet.
12:14First, I need you
12:15to investigate someone for me.
12:17Who?
12:18Lily Carter,
12:19everything about her.
12:20Three days.
12:21I'll have an answer
12:22for you in three days.
12:23Three days later,
12:24Jake came back
12:25the moment I saw him
12:26walk through the front doors
12:27of the main house.
12:28I knew something was wrong,
12:29his head was down.
12:30His shoulders slumped,
12:32all his usual fire gone.
12:33He walked into the living room,
12:35dropped into a chair,
12:36picked up a glass,
12:37and drained half of it.
12:38Then he said nothing.
12:39I had a servant
12:40take Sam out to the garden
12:41and sat across from Jake.
13:07Jake.
13:12He walked in,
13:13saw Rafe standing
13:14at the foot of the stairs,
13:15strode straight over,
13:16and slapped him
13:17across the face.
13:18Every guard nearby
13:19reached for a gun at once.
13:21Rafe lifted one hand.
13:22They all lowered
13:23their weapons again.
13:24He stood there
13:25without dodging.
13:26Papa.
13:27Don't call me Papa.
13:28What did you promise
13:29in front of both families?
13:31On the day you married
13:32my daughter?
13:32I remember.
13:33If that baby is yours,
13:35then as of tonight,
13:36the alliance between the Valti
13:38and DeLuca families
13:38is over.
13:39Let's talk in the study.
13:41My father and mother
13:42followed Rafe inside.
13:43The doors and windows
13:44were shut.
13:45All I could hear
13:46was my father's voice
13:47rising louder and louder.
13:49Then the room
13:49suddenly went quiet.
13:51A long time later,
13:52the door opened.
13:52My mother came out first.
13:55Take your mother's advice.
13:56Let this go.
13:58Do it for the child.
14:00My head buzzed.
14:01They had gone into
14:02that study one way
14:03and come out
14:03completely changed.
14:05What the hell
14:05had Rafe told them?
14:07Why should I let it go?
14:09You haven't even asked me
14:10what happened
14:10and you're already
14:11telling me to let it go?
14:13Because dropping this
14:14is best for everyone,
14:15especially you and Sam.
14:17I stared at her.
14:18Her eyes were firm.
14:19Then I looked at my father.
14:21He stood by the window
14:22with his back to me
14:23and the hand holding his gun
14:24was still trembling.
14:26If none of you will tell me,
14:28I'll find out myself.
14:29Enough!
14:30Stop investigating.
14:33I'm asking you one last time.
14:35Is the baby yours?
14:37I can't tell you.
14:39Fine.
14:41That night,
14:42after everyone left,
14:43Rafe stood outside my door.
14:44I didn't let him in.
14:45I held Sam and cried
14:46for a long time,
14:47tears dripping onto
14:48the back of his neck.
14:49Sam turned around.
14:50He was only four.
14:52He lifted his sleeve
14:52and wiped my face.
14:54Mommy.
14:55Yeah?
14:56Let's leave together.
14:58This place is bad.
14:59It makes Mommy sad.
15:01Mommy isn't happy here.
15:05That night,
15:06I packed one travel bag.
15:07I only took our documents,
15:09a few changes of clothes,
15:10and Sam's favorite storybook.
15:13At two in the morning,
15:14I carried Sam
15:15to the estate's side gate.
15:16A guard stopped me.
15:19Donna,
15:19the Don said no one
15:20is allowed to leave
15:20for the time being.
15:21I raised my hand
15:22and let him see
15:23the obsidian ring clearly.
15:24What?
15:25You listen when the Don speaks,
15:27but when the Donna gives an order,
15:30suddenly it means nothing?
15:32The guard's face changed.
15:33He lowered his head
15:34and opened the iron gate.
15:36The night wind
15:36slipped down my collar
15:37and I shivered from the cold.
15:39Mommy,
15:39where are we going?
15:41Away from here first.
15:42The next morning,
15:43Rafe came back from the port.
15:46Nora?
15:47No one answered.
15:48A sense of dread
15:48tightened in Rafe's chest.
15:50He pushed hard on the door.
15:51It swung open.
15:52The bed was cold.
15:53As if no one had slept
15:55in it all night,
15:55the closet stood open
15:56and half empty.
15:59Sam's pillow
16:00and storybook
16:01were gone too.
16:02His face slowly draining of color.
16:04At that moment,
16:05he finally understood.
16:06I had taken our son
16:07and left.
16:07Nora!
16:09How could you do something
16:10this reckless?
16:11The father of Lily's baby is...
16:14He stopped.
16:15His expression changed.
16:17Then Rafe swallowed the words
16:18that had almost escaped
16:19and spun toward the door shouting,
16:21Lock down every exit!
16:23Rafe turned all of the city
16:24upside down looking for me.
16:26He took a group of men
16:27to the bus station first,
16:29showing my photo
16:30to ticket agents one by one.
16:31Someone said
16:32they'd seen me carrying Sam
16:33onto a bus headed downtown.
16:36He rushed into the city
16:38and searched every hotel
16:39and rental apartment
16:40along the route.
16:43Vincent took two teams
16:44to the airport
16:45and the docks
16:46and pulled every piece
16:47of surveillance footage
16:48they could access.
16:49They searched all day
16:50and found nothing.
16:51That night,
16:52Rafe sat in the station
16:53waiting room
16:54and didn't leave
16:55until morning.
16:55He kept the obsidian ring
16:57clenched in his fist,
16:59the one I'd dropped
17:00after leaving the estate.
17:01By dawn,
17:02its edge had dug
17:02a bloody groove
17:03into his palm.
17:04The estate was in chaos too.
17:07What respectable Donna
17:09sneaks out in the middle
17:10of the night
17:10with the air?
17:12Her husband spent
17:13six months fighting a war
17:15and she can't even tolerate
17:16one woman in the house.
17:17If she has the nerve to leave,
17:19she can forget about my son
17:20getting down on his knees
17:21to beg her to come back.
17:24He's the Don of this family.
17:26She doesn't care
17:27how much she humiliates
17:28her husband.
17:29The words had barely
17:30left her mouth
17:30when an ebony cane
17:31tapped lightly
17:32against the floor
17:33at the doorway.
17:34Don Salvatore stood there
17:35leaning on his cane.
17:36The chapel storage room
17:38fell silent instantly.
17:40He had been retired
17:41for three years
17:42and rarely spoke
17:43unless necessary.
17:44None of the women
17:45expected him to appear
17:46in person.
17:47Nora is Rafe's wife.
17:49She's your daughter-in-law.
17:51Aren't you ashamed
17:52of standing here
17:53gossiping about her
17:54every day?
17:55She's the one being petty.
17:56So what if the Don
17:57has a mistress?
17:58What do you know?
18:00Bianca didn't dare
18:01say another word.
18:02Don Salvatore
18:03said nothing more.
18:04He turned and slowly
18:05walked away with his cane.
18:08Then again
18:09the sound fading
18:09farther and farther away.
18:11That afternoon
18:12Don Salvatore
18:13personally went
18:14to Rafe's study.
18:15When he came out
18:15his expression was grim.
18:18Don Salvatore
18:20Don't address me
18:21as Don.
18:22I mishandled this.
18:24Nora never should
18:25have been kept
18:25in the dark.
18:27Jake searched
18:28for me for two days.
18:29When he finally
18:30found Sam and me
18:31at a cheap hotel
18:31on the west side
18:32of the city
18:33I was sharpening
18:34Sam's crayons.
18:35Sam lay over the table
18:36drawing a picture
18:37of an adult
18:37holding a child's hand.
18:40Uncle Jake.
18:45Jake sat across from me
18:46pulled a black envelope
18:47from inside his coat
18:48and slid it across the table.
18:50I opened it.
18:51Inside was a death certificate
18:52name.
18:53Michael Doyle
18:54dot of death.
18:55One week before
18:56Rafe returned to New Orleans.
18:58A photograph was clipped
19:00behind the certificate.
19:01In it an unfamiliar man
19:02stood behind Lily.
19:04One hand resting
19:05on her still flat stomach
19:06while the other
19:06held a tiny pair
19:07of baby shoes
19:08still in their packaging.
19:09They were both smiling.
19:10Who is this?
19:12Michael Doyle.
19:13Rafe's head of security
19:14and one of the DeLucco
19:15family's most important associates.
19:17He wasn't a made man
19:18but he'd worked for Rafe
19:19for nine years
19:20and saved his life twice.
19:22Jake pulled another
19:23piece of paper
19:23from his pocket.
19:24This one stained with blood.
19:26Don, I'm leaving Lily
19:27and the baby with you.
19:28Don't let Caruso find them.
19:30Michael.
19:30I clenched the paper
19:31in my hand.
19:32The baby's Michael's?
19:35Yes.
19:36After Caruso
19:37attacked the port
19:38Michael had been
19:39investigating the mole
19:40inside the family.
19:42In the final ambush
19:43he took two bullets
19:45for Rafe
19:45and killed the Caruso heir.
19:48He didn't survive the night.
19:52Michael and Lily
19:53never made their
19:53relationship public.
19:55Caruso only knew
19:56he'd left behind
19:56a pregnant woman.
19:57They didn't know
19:58who she was.
19:59They put the word out
20:00that they intended
20:01to wipe out
20:01Michael's bloodline too.
20:03No wonder
20:03she'd looked at me
20:04that way in the kitchen.
20:05No wonder
20:06she'd looked so deeply hurt
20:08when she burst into tears.
20:09She hadn't come
20:10to steal my husband.
20:11She simply couldn't say
20:12the name of the man
20:12she loved who had died.
20:14Why did Rafe let everyone
20:15think the baby was his?
20:17Because there was still
20:18a mole inside
20:18the DeLuca family.
20:19As long as he didn't deny it
20:21everyone would assume
20:22Lily was the Don's woman.
20:24No one would dare
20:24keep digging into her.
20:26Only after they found
20:26the mole
20:27and eliminated
20:28the killers Caruso
20:29left behind
20:29could the truth come out.
20:32Why didn't you
20:33tell me before?
20:36Rafe didn't tell me.
20:37I found it out myself.
20:40What about mom and dad?
20:41Dad went after him
20:42with a gun.
20:43The two families
20:44almost went to war.
20:45Rafe had no choice
20:45but to tell him
20:46and make him swear
20:46on the honor
20:47of the Vlati family
20:48that he would
20:48keep it secret.
20:49So you were allowed
20:50to investigate.
20:51Dad was allowed
20:51to point a gun at him
20:52and force the truth
20:53out of him.
20:54Vincent and Don Salvatore
20:55knew from the beginning
20:55and the one person
20:56who had the greatest right
20:57to know the truth
20:58was the one all of you
20:59decided to lie to.
21:00No, Rafe didn't betray you.
21:01He just couldn't tell you.
21:02You should forgive him.
21:04Couldn't tell me?
21:05Forgive him?
21:06I can understand
21:07why he couldn't tell me
21:08who Michael was.
21:09I can understand
21:10why he couldn't tell me
21:10he was hunting a mole
21:11but he couldn't even tell me
21:12in private that the baby
21:13wasn't his.
21:15Do any of you understand
21:16how much the truth
21:17mattered?
21:17Who was the one
21:18people pointed at
21:19and insulted for two months?
21:20Who was the one
21:21Rafe's mother told
21:22to give up her son's room
21:23to a pregnant woman
21:24who tried to stand up
21:25and defend herself
21:26only to have her husband
21:27physically hold her down?
21:28Did any of you ever
21:29think about how humiliated
21:30I was and now you
21:31want me to forgive him?
21:32Dream on.
21:33Get out.
21:33I don't want to see you
21:34right now.
21:38Nor.
21:39If you don't leave
21:39I'll take Sam
21:40and switch hotels
21:41right now.
21:47Rafe hasn't slept
21:48in two days.
21:49He seemed to sleep
21:50just fine during the
21:51two months
21:51everyone was insulting me.
21:53Jake said nothing else.
21:54I slammed the door
21:55in his face.
21:57That night
21:57after Sam fell asleep
21:58a crayon was still
21:59clutched in his hand.
22:01I gently pulled it free
22:02and picked up
22:02the picture he'd drawn.
22:04There were only
22:04two people in it.
22:05Sam and me.
22:06Two little figures
22:07one big and one small
22:09holding hands
22:09beneath the sun.
22:11I'd asked him
22:11where his father was.
22:13He'd said daddy
22:13was very far away.
22:15I folded the picture
22:15turned off the light
22:16and lay down.
22:19The next morning
22:20I checked out
22:21of the hotel.
22:22I didn't go back
22:22to the DeLuca estate
22:23and I didn't return
22:24to the Valenti home either.
22:26I sent Sam
22:26to stay with my mother
22:27for a while
22:28and went alone
22:28to the north shore
22:29of Lake Pontchartrain.
22:31There was a private
22:31physical rehabilitation
22:32center there
22:33called Harbor House.
22:35My grandmother
22:35had left it to me.
22:36After I got married
22:37I handed it over
22:38to professional management
22:39and hadn't been back
22:40in six years.
22:41Mrs. Coleman
22:42the director
22:43was in her 50s
22:44finished going through
22:45the past few years
22:46of accounts
22:46then looked up at me.
22:48What brought you back
22:48all of a sudden?
22:50My husband has passed away.
22:52I told her
22:52my husband was dead.
22:54Mrs. Coleman
22:54didn't ask any more questions.
22:56She pushed a ring of keys
22:58across the desk.
22:59There's only enough money
23:00left to keep us running
23:00for two months.
23:01The East Wing leaks
23:03the kitchen owes money
23:04to suppliers
23:04and we're short
23:05six caregivers.
23:07Where do we start?
23:09With the unpaid wages.
23:12Working at Harbor House
23:13wasn't easy.
23:14I got to the office
23:15at six every morning.
23:16During the day
23:16I went through the books
23:17called contractors
23:18interviewed staff
23:20and helped on the wards
23:21whenever we were shorthanded.
23:22Call bells rang non-stop.
23:24Carts rattled through the halls.
23:25Patients pressed
23:26their call buttons.
23:27Relatives argued
23:28and nurses called for help.
23:29The noise never stopped.
23:31The first week
23:31I got three blisters
23:33on my hands
23:33moving supplies.
23:34Covered them with gauze
23:35and kept working.
23:36By the second week
23:37the blisters
23:38had turned into calluses.
23:39I sold several pieces
23:41of my personal jewelry
23:42and used the money
23:43to cover the back pay owed
23:44to 27 employees.
23:46When my father found out
23:48he called me.
23:49The Volante family
23:51isn't short on money.
23:52I know.
23:53Then why are you
23:54selling your own things?
23:57Because Harbor House
23:58is mine.
24:00The other end of the line
24:01was silent for a long time.
24:03You're really not coming back?
24:05No.
24:06My father hung up.
24:12At the end of the month
24:13Mrs. Coleman
24:14slid a piece of paper
24:15with an address
24:16across my desk.
24:17It was the apartment
24:18I'd asked her
24:18to help me find.
24:19It was right across
24:20from the rehab center.
24:22One bedroom,
24:23one living room
24:23and a small balcony.
24:25I signed the lease
24:25that afternoon.
24:26That weekend
24:27I went back to Galveston
24:28to pick up Sam.
24:29My parents were waiting
24:30in front of the estate.
24:31When my father saw me
24:32his lips moved.
24:33What happened
24:34to your hands?
24:36Moving supplies.
24:38The next day
24:39as I was leaving
24:40my mother caught my sleeve.
24:41You're really not
24:41going back to Rafe?
24:44No.
24:45He came by the day
24:46before yesterday.
24:47He's lost a lot of weight.
24:48Every single one of them
24:49had helped keep
24:50the truth from me.
24:51None of them
24:51had the right to talk me
24:52into reconciling with him.
24:54No one at the DeLuca estate
24:55knew where I'd gone.
24:57They only knew
24:57that Rafe returned
24:58to the main house
24:59less and less.
25:00He spent his days
25:01at the port,
25:02slept in his study
25:03at night
25:03and barely spoke
25:04to anyone
25:05even during meals.
25:05Vincent tried
25:06to talk to him once.
25:08Rafe shut the door
25:09in his face.
25:09Lily wasn't doing
25:10well either.
25:11One evening,
25:12she was carrying
25:13a plate of dessert
25:14toward the dining room
25:15when her legs
25:16suddenly gave out
25:16beneath her.
25:17The plate shattered,
25:19cream splattering
25:19across the floor.
25:21After examining her,
25:22the doctor said
25:23she was malnourished.
25:24Her blood pressure
25:25was dangerously low
25:26and the pregnancy
25:27was at serious risk.
25:28If things continued
25:29like this,
25:30she could lose the baby.
25:32When Bianca went
25:32to see her,
25:33she brought a basket
25:34of fruit.
25:35Lily leaned against
25:36the headboard,
25:37her face as white
25:37as the sheets.
25:38Bianca sat for a while
25:40before finally asking
25:41the question she'd been
25:42holding in for two months.
25:43Lily, tell me the truth.
25:45Whose baby are you carrying?
25:48Lily didn't take
25:49the fruit Bianca offered her.
25:51If the baby isn't Rafe's,
25:52why didn't you say so?
25:53The Don saved me.
25:56I can't ruin his plan.
25:59What about Nora?
26:01Every single day
26:02I wanted to tell her.
26:04When Bianca returned
26:05from the clinic,
26:05she ran into Don Salvatore
26:07in the hallway.
26:08Salvador.
26:09Don Salvatore stood
26:10in front of her
26:10for a long moment.
26:11Bianca,
26:12when you married me
26:13I told you one thing.
26:15Do you remember it?
26:16Bianca answered nervously.
26:18I remember.
26:19You said a Delina woman
26:20either helps
26:21hold the family together
26:22or knows when
26:23to keep her mouth shut.
26:24For the past two months
26:25you've done neither.
26:27You humiliated
26:28your own daughter-in-law
26:28over a girl
26:29whose background
26:30you didn't even know.
26:31I didn't know.
26:32Then that was even more reason
26:33to keep your mouth shut.
26:37Nora is the only person
26:38in this house
26:39who hasn't done
26:40a single thing wrong
26:41from beginning to end.
26:42Go ask Vincent.
26:44Once you have,
26:45think very carefully
26:46about what you're
26:46going to do next.
26:47By the time Bianca
26:48left the hallway
26:49her legs were shaking.
26:50She went straight
26:51to Vincent's office.
26:52Lily's baby
26:53isn't Rafe's, is it?
26:54Vincent closed the file
26:55in front of him
26:56and didn't answer.
26:58Then whose baby is it?
27:00There are still things
27:00I can't tell you.
27:02Think about it yourself.
27:04If the baby really
27:05was the Dons,
27:06why did every man
27:06who came back
27:07from the Gulf Coast
27:08protect Lily
27:08yet not one of them
27:09congratulate him?
27:11A living person's pride
27:12will never matter more
27:13than protecting
27:14the child of a dead man.
27:18Michael's belongings
27:19were returned to the estate.
27:21The package wasn't large.
27:22It was a metal box
27:23recovered from
27:24the burned warehouse.
27:25Rafe opened it.
27:26Inside were a neatly
27:26folded black suit,
27:28an old watch,
27:29a bill folded in half,
27:30and a letter
27:31that had never been sent.
27:32Lily's name was written
27:33on the envelope.
27:34Rafe opened the letter.
27:35If I don't make it back,
27:37tell my child
27:37his father didn't run away.
27:39I died trying to come home.
27:41Rafe took the letter
27:42to Vincent's study
27:43that two of them
27:44shut the door
27:44and stayed inside
27:45all afternoon.
27:47Vincent took apart
27:47the old watch
27:48and found a tiny
27:49folded ledger page
27:50hidden inside the casing.
27:52It listed several
27:53DeLuca shipments
27:54whose schedules
27:54had been leaked.
27:55The same initials
27:57were written beside
27:57every entry
27:58CG Carlo Greco,
28:00a capo responsible
28:01for coordinating
28:02the DeLuca port operations.
28:04That night,
28:05Carlo was caught
28:05while trying to
28:06leave New Orleans.
28:07He was dragged
28:08into the basement,
28:09still shouting
28:10that he'd served
28:10the DeLuca family
28:11for 20 years.
28:13Were you the one
28:13who sold our movements
28:14to Caruso
28:15before those attacks?
28:16Carlo stopped shouting.
28:18Using the addresses
28:19he gave up,
28:20DeLuca men found
28:21the last group
28:21of Carusas
28:22still hiding in the city.
28:24Before dawn,
28:25the threat was gone.
28:26The next morning,
28:28Don Salvatore
28:29ordered Vincent
28:29to summon every
28:30core member of the family
28:31to the private chapel.
28:33It wasn't a family meeting.
28:34It was a formal
28:35family tribunal
28:36presided over
28:37by Don Salvatore himself.
28:39The chapel was packed,
28:41Bianca sat in the front row.
28:42The women who had
28:43insulted me
28:44sat behind her.
28:45Rafe stood beside the altar
28:46instead of taking
28:47the Don's seat.
28:48That chair had been left
28:49for Don Salvatore.
28:51Don Salvatore walked
28:52slowly toward the altar,
28:53leaning on his ebony cane.
28:55He had been retired
28:56for three years.
28:57This was the first time
28:58in three years
28:59that he had sat
28:59in that old chair.
29:01I've been retired
29:02for three years.
29:04Today,
29:04I'm stepping into
29:06family business
29:06one more time.
29:07because this time
29:09the family owes
29:10a debt
29:10to one dead man
29:12and justice
29:13to one woman.
29:16He looked at Bianca,
29:17then at the Capos' wives
29:19seated behind her.
29:21Vincent walked
29:22to the long table
29:23and placed
29:24three things on it.
29:25Michael's cufflinks,
29:26the farewell letter
29:27he'd written to Lily,
29:28and the bloodstained note
29:29entrusting Lily
29:30and the baby to Rafe.
29:31Michael Doyle
29:32was not a made man.
29:33For nine years,
29:34he carried out
29:3527 operations
29:36for the DeLuca family
29:37and saved my son's life
29:39twice.
29:40The last time,
29:41he didn't come home alive.
29:47If I don't make it back,
29:49tell my child
29:50his father didn't run away.
29:52I died trying to come home.
29:55The woman the Don
29:56brought back
29:56from the Gulf Coast
29:57was not his mistress.
29:59She was the fiance
30:00of a man
30:00who died
30:01for the DeLuca family,
30:02and she was carrying
30:04his child.
30:05The handkerchief
30:06slipped from Bianca's hand.
30:11Until Carlo was caught
30:13and the killers
30:13were eliminated,
30:15anyone learning
30:15the child's identity
30:16would have put Lily
30:17and the baby
30:18in mortal danger.
30:19That's why the Don
30:20couldn't explain publicly.
30:25I was the one
30:26who ordered everyone
30:27to believe Lily
30:28was my woman.
30:29I take responsibility
30:30for every consequence.
30:34over the past two months,
30:36several people
30:37in this house
30:37said ugly things
30:38to the Donna's face.
30:40I won't name names.
30:42If you were one of them,
30:43stand up!
30:44After a long time,
30:45two Capo's wives
30:46stood first.
30:48We're sorry.
30:49We were wrong.
30:50Then four more stood.
30:51Then five.
30:53Bianca was the last.
30:55She slowly rose
30:56from the front row
30:56and turned to face
30:57the entire chapel.
30:58I'm Rafe's mother.
31:00I tried to force Nora
31:02to give Lily
31:02her son's room.
31:05I humiliated her
31:06in public
31:07at the charity
31:07committee meeting.
31:10Everyone in this house
31:11who spoke badly
31:12about Nora
31:12followed my lead.
31:14I was wrong.
31:17Don Salvatore
31:18watched her in silence
31:19for a long time.
31:20Tell Nora that.
31:22Not us.
31:25After the tribunal ended,
31:26Bianca didn't leave
31:27right away.
31:28She stood for a long time
31:29staring at the empty seat
31:31reserved for the Donna
31:31beside the altar
31:32as tears kept slipping
31:33down her cheeks.
31:35Three days later,
31:36she wrote me a letter by hand.
31:37She wrote that
31:38if I was willing to come back,
31:39she would move out
31:40of the main house
31:41and hand over
31:42the estate keys,
31:43along with everything
31:44that belonged to the Donna.
31:46If I still couldn't forgive her,
31:48she would come kneel
31:49before me herself.
31:50By the end of the letter,
31:51the ink had bled
31:53across the page.
31:54Gabriel came to Harbor House
31:55with two men.
31:56At the time,
31:57I was pushing a cart
31:58of clean sheets
31:59toward the inpatient wing.
32:00Mrs. Coleman called me twice
32:02from the end of the hallway
32:03before I heard her.
32:04I handed the cart
32:04to a caregiver
32:05and went outside.
32:08Donna, two days ago,
32:10Don Salvatore
32:10personally presided
32:11over a family tribunal
32:12in the chapel
32:13and explained everything.
32:15Michael saved the Don's life.
32:16Lily and the baby
32:17were both entrusted
32:18to him by Michael.
32:19Bianca and the others
32:19were all there.
32:20Don Salvatore
32:21ordered Bianca
32:21to apologize
32:22to you herself.
32:25I opened Bianca's letter,
32:27read it,
32:27then folded it again.
32:28She said that
32:29if you'd come back,
32:29she'd move out.
32:31And she said
32:32if you want her to kneel,
32:33she'll come and kneel
32:34before you herself.
32:36Tell her she doesn't
32:37need to kneel.
32:40Then when are you
32:41coming back to the estate?
32:42I never said
32:43I was going back.
32:44But the baby
32:45isn't the Don's.
32:46I know.
32:48The Don never
32:49touched Lily either.
32:50I know.
32:50Then why?
32:54Because my shift
32:55isn't over yet.
32:58That night,
32:59I went back to the
32:59DeLuca estate
33:00not to move back in
33:01to collect what I'd left behind.
33:03A winter coat,
33:04two pairs of shoes,
33:05and a photo album.
33:06On the last page
33:07was a picture of the three of us
33:08standing in front of the estate
33:10before Rafe left
33:11for the Gulf Coast
33:12to fight the rival family.
33:13Sam sat on Rafe's shoulders,
33:15grinning wide enough
33:16to show a row of tiny teeth.
33:18I stood beside them,
33:20straightening Rafe's collar.
33:21My lips were parted
33:22as if I were still speaking.
33:23I was probably telling him
33:25to come home safe.
33:26I closed the album
33:27and placed it in the cardboard box.
33:29As I stepped outside,
33:30I ran into Bianca.
33:31The moment she saw the box
33:33in my arms,
33:33she went rigid
33:34at the foot of the stairs.
33:36Nora,
33:37I got your letter.
33:39Stay tonight.
33:42If you don't want to see me,
33:43I'll move into the West House
33:44right now.
33:45The main house is yours.
33:47So is your place as Donna.
33:49Mrs. DeLuca,
33:50I'm not staying away
33:51because I'm still angry with you.
33:53Then why?
33:54Everyone here calls me Donna,
33:56but when something actually happened,
33:58not one person treated me
33:59like the Donna.
34:01You expected me to accept a woman
34:03who might have been carrying
34:04my husband's child?
34:06Rafe told me to keep quiet.
34:09Everyone else stood there
34:10and watched me be humiliated.
34:13Now that the truth is out,
34:14you all think that
34:15if you give me back
34:16the room and the ring,
34:18everything can go back
34:19to the way it was.
34:23Nora, I'm sorry.
34:25I accept your apology,
34:27but I'm not coming back.
