This Thursday, the tip

of the U.S. trading day.

Tuesday, March 22 and
here are the top stories

that we're following
for you this hour.

All eyes are on Live Talk.

The sound of the studio-

- I gotta go to New
York today for a meeting

and then I should
be back by dinner.

- You need me to drop
you off at the airport?

You know I still
gotta go that way



to drop Sam off to school.

- Mm, no that's okay.

I have William taking me.

Besides, I need to discuss
a few things with him.

- Is everything okay?

- Yeah, everything's fine.

But we're going public next week

and I need everybody
to be on the same page.

- You're going where in public?

- We're making it so
that people can buy stock

into our company, son.

- Stock?

Yeah. Stock.

- Now you gotta explain the
stock market to an 11 year old.

Good luck.

- Mom, I'm not dumb.

- Nobody's calling
you dumb, baby.

I'm just saying even I don't
understand the ins and outs

of the stock market.

- Wait, so you're telling me
if you go to the supermarket,

you can go there
to buy our company?

- See what you done started?

Look you two better get
going before you be late.

- Mom, you know,
I can't be late.

I have to beat Sean there

because he's gonna
try to sit by Kim

and he knows that's
my girlfriend.

- Young man, you do
not have a girlfriend.

- Hold on. Is she cute?

- I don't give a
damn if she's cute.

He's too young for a girlfriend.

- Really? She has
to be my girlfriend.

She brings me candy every day

and she only brings
candy to her boyfriend.

- And she brings candy?

Yeah you better hurry
up and get him to school

before Sean gets there.

My son will always
have the cute girl.

Besides, I got the cute girl.

- What am I gonna
do with you two?

- Just love us.

Come on, Mom. Let's go.

- Okay, kiddo. Look.

Let me know when you
make it to the airport.

I'll text you when
I leave the gym.

- Okay.

- Love you. - Love you.

- What is that smell?

- Cologne.

- Where did you get that from?

- From your room.

How much did you use?

- Not a lot.

- Sammy. Baby, you
used the whole bottle.

- Well, I smell good, don't I?

- You do, but you used too much.

- Good because I
really do like her.

- Well, if you like her, she
must be a really good girl.

- She's a woman.

- Oh okay. A woman?

Wait.

Is that her?

Yes.

Oh, she's pretty.

- I know because
she's my girlfriend.

- Okay.
- I love you, Sam.

- I love you too.

- Hey Sam.

Hey.

- What am I gon'
do with that kid?

Great. New trainer.

This is not how I imagine my
day going, but you know what?

I'm not 'bout to
use this as a excuse

for me not to go
to the gym.

- You got two meetings soon
as you touch down in New York.

- Who's the first meeting with?

You ready
for this? Fox Business.

- Hm.

That's funny.

They're the ones
who said Live Talk

wouldn't be around that long

and that Facebook
was gon' kill us.

- Yeah well they're
kissing your ass now,

singing all your praises.

Adam, what are you doing? We
gotta prep you for this man.

- I'm fine. I can talk
about this in my sleep.

- What's more
important than this?

- It's a lot of things more
important, mainly my wife.

I had to send her some flowers.

- Yikes. I get it. I apologize.

Take a look at this.

- Mm.

Let's say we should make a
little bit over $17,000,000,000

in the first quarter.

Now them Facebook numbers.

man, but it was the team.

- You put the team
together, Adam.

It's got everything
to do with you.

- Well, I appreciate that.

Look, I'll be back
later on tonight

so I'll see you tomorrow?

- See you then.

- Oh, you mean Lisa?

- Yeah.

- Okay. That's her
brother over there, Malik.

Malik! Can you come over
here? She's looking for you.

- Hey, how you doing?

girl in the park.

- Okay.

I trust you.

- Good. Come on.

Come on.

Rotate. There you go.

- Ooh. That's what
I need right there.

I feel like I worked
out my whole body.

You got a show. You a singer?

- Artist?
- What type of artist?

- You know, paint, draw.

- I'd love to see some
of your work sometime.

- So that mean you wanna
come to my show, then?

- I can't. My husband
is out of town.

- Understandable.
Maybe next time.

- Yeah, but I still
wanna support.

How much are your tickets?

- Look,

I don't want your support.

Hold on to these.

- Nah, I can't do
that. I wanna pay.

How much are the tickets?

- Look.

Just hold on to 'em. Never
know. Things might switch up.

Um, I'll see you in
a couple of days?

- Is Lisa coming back?

- Nah, she's taking a break.

- Is everything okay with her?

- Yeah, she's good.

She just need to take
care of business she said.

And I gotta stay
in shape, right?

- Yeah. You do.

I'll see you in
a couple of days.

- Yeah. I'll see you
in a couple days.

- This looks out. You
should be very pleased.

That's a secure bright future
for my wife and my son.

- How are they doing anyway?

You know my wife was just asking

about Jaclyn this morning.

She wanted me to you
give both you're welcome.

- Sure will.

Are you sure?

- What's wrong?

- Feds is looking into
one of my top people.

- Which one?

William.

- They're investigating William
McConnell Lee? For what?

- For trying to give
my top competitors

inside trade information

so they could take my
company away from me.

- That son of a bitch.

I gotta get on this

right now.
- No, I'ma handle this.

Come on Rich. Let's go.

- Wait Adam. It's my job.
I'm supposed to protect you.

- Like I said, I'ma
handle this, all of this.

- Adam, please. If you need
anything, call me, okay?

- I appreciate that, but
I got this. Thanks though.

Man, I just knew something
wasn't right with him.

Look I need you to stop all
his access to my company.

- Already done.

- 'Lieve I trusted him.

Ain't even see this shit comin'.

Man, this has been
one hell of a day.

- Yeah well let's get
back to the airport.

- Don't forget to carry the one.

- Okay, look at this.

- I think you got
it. Good job, Sammy.

- Good job, Sam.

Looks like somebody's
gonna be an accountant

when they get older.

- I don't wanna be a accountant.

I wanna run Daddy's company.

- Well, you know what? I think
that'll be very possible.

- Today at Playground
Gallery in Detroit,

artist Malik Brown will
have his work on display.

Brown is viewed as one of the
hottest up and coming artists

of his generation.

Let's take a look.

- You think you can
watch him for me tonight?

- Yeah. That's not
gon' be a problem.

I was gon' stop by my mom house,

but I'll call and let her
know I'm going straight home

from here.

- Okay. Can you tell
Ms. Debra I said hey?

Mm hm.

- I'm 'bout to go
upstairs and get dressed.

I'ma order y'all a pizza.

- I want all the meats on it.

- Mkay.

- Hello?

- Hey, you sound like
you in a good mood.

- I wouldn't say that.

I'm just getting dressed,
about to head to this art show.

- Well, that sounds
cool. Whose is it?

- Uh, Malik Brown. Lisa
gave me a ticket to go.

- Hm. Well, I just landed.
I can meet you up there.

- Well, she really only
gave me one ticket.

I can wait for you though

when you get here and
then we can go together.

- Mm, nah that's okay.
You go 'head. Have fun.

I'ma just grab something
to eat on the way home.

- I ordered Sam a pizza
with all the meats on it.

- Oh, okay. I could have that.

Well I'll see you
when you get home.

- Yes you will. I love you.

- I love you with
all of my heart.

- And that's what
I'm supposed to do.

- You do. I'll see you tonight.

- All right.

Mom?

- Yeah, baby?

- Why did you name me
Samuel and not Cameron?

I like Cameron.

- Because you're
named after my father.

- I wish my name was Cameron.

Well,
when you get older

and you decide you want
people to call you Cameron,

you can do that.

- I'm gonna start now.

- That's fine, Sam.

- My name is Cameron.

- Okay, Sam.

- Cameron.

- Alright. Okay, Cameron.

I'ma see you later. Okay?
- Okay.

- Make sure you save
your dad some pizza.

- Okay. I will.

- Oh.

Can you make sure he
save him some pizza?

- Okay. I will.

- Okay.

- Have fun.

All right.

- Hello.

- Hey. Good to see you here.

It's beautiful.

- Hopefully this is
gonna continue to grow.

But let's go ahead
and get started.

- Sure.

- Excuse me, everyone.

Uh, if I can get your attention.

Um, first off, I'd
like to thank everyone

for coming tonight.

Uh, today's a very
big day for me, um,

because, uh, honestly I never

thought I would be
selling something that

people actually wanted to buy.

Um,

this the first piece I painted
after losing my brother.

Uh, so for me, this is
a very special piece,

um, but I'm actually
ready to see it in a home

that's gonna love
it, uh, because, uh,

every time I look at it,
I just get emotional.

So with that being said, Mike,
can we start the bidding?

- All right. Thank
you all for coming.

Are we ready to bid big?

- Yeah.

- Yes. All right. We're gonna
get the bid started at $5,000.

Do we have $5,000?

$5,000.

$5,500?

$5,500.

$6,000?

$6,500?

Okay, I'm gonna go
ahead and say $10,000.

Do we have $10,000?
$15,000? Do we have $16,000?

- $50,000.

- $50,000? Do we
have $60,000 anyone?

- $100,000.

- $100,000.

$110,000?

Anyone? Going once.

Going twice.

Sold to the lady in the
black leather jacket.

Congratulations.

- What are you doing?

- Buying a painting.

- I know that, but
you got $100,000?

- Yeah, I think you're worth it.

- Thank you.

- Here's the check.

- Oh, thank you.

And what address would
you like us to ship to?

- The one on the check is fine.

- Thank you so much, Miss Hewer.

- Thank you.

- Jaclyn.

Where you going?

- I'm 'bout to go home.

Thank you for the tickets
though. I really appreciated it.

- Look, I know I
thanked you already,

but I really have
to thank you again.

Sh. Sh. Sh. Sh.

- Hey, hun. You okay?

- Yeah. I-I'm on
my way home now.

I just, I just got in the car.

- Okay, good.

I love you.

- Okay. I love you too.

- Who's that?

- My husband and I
gotta go. You gotta go.

- Hey.

How was it?

- How was what?

- The art show?

- Oh, it was good. You know,
it ended up being a auction?

- Mm.

- Mm hm and I
bought us something.

- Huh, okay. Well I
can't wait to see it.

- And I can't wait
for you to see it.

I'm 'bout to take a bath.

- All right.

Well, I should be finished
by the time you get out.

- Malik.

Malik.

Mm.

Malik.

What are you doing?

You have a good husband.

- Hey, what's wrong?

Nothing.

- Then why are you crying?
Is everything okay?

- As long as I got you,

everything will always be okay.

God, what did I just do?

- So you really telling
me I can't fire him?

- No, it's better if you
let the feds handle him.

So how long do I
gotta act like I like him?

- Just long enough for the
government to do their job.

In the meantime, I'll have
a man on him 24 hours a day.

- Can't believe he'd put my
company in jeopardy like this.

He was really gon' try and
take my company from me.

And I was a damn
good boss to him.

- Everything's gonna work
out, all right? I promise.

Excuse me.

- Hey.

- Hey.

Wait, damn. Isn't
it your birthday?

- Yes, it is.

- Honey, did you get
what we discussed?

- You talking about
the birthday gift?

- Yes, the gift.

- Course I did.

Sam? - Yes, Mom?

- Give Miss Debra
her birthday gift.

No way.

Nah huh.

Y'all bought me a house?

Uh, why would y'all
do this? Oh my God.

- Because we love you.

- Baby, I love you too, but
y'all I can't take this.

- Yes, you can. You
can and you will.

Look. You've been with
us for a long time now.

Your daughter's been
like a big sister to Sam.

Y'all practically
helped us raise him.

Look, we would've went crazy
without the two of you.

So you gon' take that
house and you gon' love it

because it's yours.

- Uh, y'all are the best.

Uh, I don't know how
I'll ever repay y'all.

- By enjoying your new house.

- Oh, I sure am. I love this.

Well, I forgot about...

Um, there's a Mrs.
Washington here to see you.

- Send her in.

- Okay. Come on, baby.

Why you didn't tell me y'all
bought me a house, huh?

- Where you going looking
like a supermarket?

- Well I'm going shopping

and then me and Kelly
are going to go to lunch.

- Mm hm.

- But I won't be gone long.

- Mm.

You smelling good.
What's that you got on?

- Kimberly New York.

- Well, it smells amazing.

- Thank you.

I can come back.

- I'm sorry.

My husband never misses a chance

to show me how important
I am to him.

- Yeah, I'm sorry.

I just never want her
to leave me sometimes.

I'm sorry. Are you married?

- I was, but, um,

my husband died from
cancer six months ago.

- I'm sorry to hear that.

- I am too, but

this is good.

Always show her
that you love her

and tell her as
often as you can.

If I have any regret is that
I didn't tell my husband

more often that I love him.

- Well, he does a
great job at that.

But I'm not gon' hold y'all up.

I gotta get going 'cause I
don't wanna have Kelly waiting.

- All right. I'll see you later.

Well,

I am Adam Hewer and this
is my associate Rich Steed.

You can have a seat.

- I am Maria Washington.

- It's nice to meet you.

Boss, I'm gonna
go take care of that.

- Okay. Have a seat.

- Well, I am glad to
finally meet you in person.

You are the talk

of the tech community.
- Thank you.

- And you did it all without
any Silicon Valley money.

- Hm.

Yeah, well, I took my buyout
that I made from my last job

and I developed Live Talk.

I knew that if I bet on me,
the world would love it.

- But why didn't you take
the Google and Facebook money

when they came with an
open unlimited checkbook?

- Simple.

If they wanted it that bad,
why shouldn't I keep it?

- Can you explain that?

- Look, I came from nothing.

My mother had me and my brother

and we basically had
to share clothes.

We knew nothing about
generational wealth.

We knew check to check.

So when they came to me

with what most people
might consider enough,

I knew that it wasn't.

And it was at that
moment that I realized

that somebody had
to come to them

with that same offer they
making me and they said no.

And now they're the ones
that's making the offers.

Wouldn't you wanna be the
ones making the offers,

Miss Washington?

- That is powerful.

So,

tell me how the name
Live Talk came about.

- Well,

I got my ideas from...

Malik!

- Who is it?

- It's me, Jas. I mean, Jac.

- I didn't think you
was gon' really come.

- I didn't think I would
be here until I got here.

- It's crazy, man.

I really couldn't, um, sleep

without thinking
about you last night.

- I know the feeling. I couldn't
sleep last night either.

Thought about you too.

- So how long have
you been married?

- I don't wanna talk
about my husband.

So can we talk about
something else?

- And I think it's
important we talk about him.

- And I don't. So let's
just change the subject.

Why?

- Because I love my
husband and he's a good man

and I love my son,

but it's just something missing.

And it's something about you.

- What about me?

- I'm just comfortable
when I'm with you.

Like when we was at the gym

and you had your
hands all on me.

I didn't want you
to stop touching me.

I really wanted you
to kiss me right there

in the middle of that gym.

- Well, why didn't you kiss me?

- Because I'm married and
I'm wrong for being here.

I gotta go.
- Wait. Where you going?

- Home.

- You right where you should be.

Well,

all you have to do

is what I say do.

Nothing more, nothing less.

I want you to be mines.

- She's still not answering, eh?

- Hey.

- Hey, I've been calling you.

- I know.

Me and Kelly went...

We got massages and facials.

- Well, I was a little worried.

It's not like you to
not answer your phone.

- Adam, I said I went
and got a massage.

- Is everything okay?

- Yeah. I'm all right.

I'll see you when
I get home, okay?

- Yeah. Okay.

Jax?

Yeah?

- I love you.

- Yeah, me too.

- Where you going?

I'm going home.

- Man, you right where you
supposed to be, man. Lay down.

- No, I should be at
home with my family.

You know I've been married
to my husband for 12 years

and I've never cheated on him?

- What you telling me that for?

- Because I'm not some hoe.

- Who you trying to
convince? Me or yourself?

- Fuck you!

- Wait. I don't even
mean it like that.

- Nah, fuck you!
And I mean that!

- Calm down, man. I don't
even mean it like that.

Jaclyn!

Jax!

Fuck man.

Damn.

I can't believe
this is happening Jax.

What the fuck?

Like

what are you doing?

Fuck.

God.

Hello?

- Hey, is that you? - What?

What you talking about?

On the
street? Is that you?

- Oh girl. Yeah. I done
caught a flat on my tire.

- Okay. We got you.
- We 'bout to pull up on you.

- All right.

Your jack and
spare in the trunk?

- Yep. - All right.

Give me about five
minutes. I got you.

- Girl, why you looking so
stressed? It's just a flat tire.

- Girl, I wish it
was just a flat tire.

- What's going on?

- Can I ask you a question?

- Yeah. What's up?

- How long y'all
two been married?

- God.

15 long,

hard,

stressful, but beautiful years.

- You never thought
you made a mistake?

Like you married
the wrong person?

- Yeah. Three days a week.

But the other four show me
that I made the right choice.

Why? Why? What's up?

- You ever thought
about cheating on him?

Thought
about? I did. I know.

I just...

At that moment,

the other guy made feel like
he was giving me something

that I needed, but
girl, he wasn't shit.

- What you mean?

- I mean, any man that
messes with a married woman

does not want you.

And the moment you
leave your husband,

you realize you didn't
have shit in common

with this guy other than sex.

- But what happens when
everything just get boring?

Like when you want your
husband to fuck you?

- Then fuck him.

Girl, put on a porno and tell
his ass to do what he sees.

- Girl, I guess.

- Look, Jax.

We all have these phases
where we want something new

where we feel like we can
do better than what we have.

But girl, you don't
wanna make that mistake.

When Mark found out I cheated
on him, it killed him.

It took me years to prove
to him he was all I needed.

You hear me?

You don't wanna hurt the
man you love like that.

If this is something you're
seriously thinking about,

don't,

okay?

- All right.

- Jax, I'm serious.

- Okay.

- All right.

- All done. You good.

- Thank you. Look, I owe
both of y'all dinner.

- You know he can eat.

- Oh, I know. But
what about you?

- Well, I have this
little two piece

I'm tryna squeeze into so
I'ma take a rain check.

- Girl, I hear you.

But look, Trina,
I really, really,

really appreciate you.
- Girl, stop thanking me.

You know you're
family. Cut it out.

You just tell that
little sexy cook of yours

I want my favorite, the pasta.

- No he ain't sexy.

- Babe, you know,
you're all I want.

I just want his food and I
want your.

- Baby you a freak.

- Your little freak.

- I'll see y'all two later.
- Bye girl.

- Thank you.
- You have a good day.

- These are really pretty.

Thank you.

- I'm just looking for
something small, lil' key chain.

How much is this?

You're in
luck. That's only $3.

- Can I get it?

- Absolutely.

Why are you
acting like this?

Kiss on me right now
here and look at you.

I feel
like I'm losing my woman.

Stop it.

Stop what?

I'm not an ochre.

Coya, I love you.

Not now.

- Girl, pick up the phone.

- Hello?

- Hey baby. What's
up? What you doing?

- Nothing. I just had a flat
tire, but it's fixed now.

What's up with you
Ma? How's Daddy?

- Well, not much. And
you know your Dad.

He just being your Dad,
acting like a old man.

- Ma, can I ask you something
and you not judge me?

You okay?

- Yeah. I'm good. I
just need some advice.

- All right. I'm listening.

- You ever felt like you
and Daddy's relationship

just reached it's peak?

- All the time, but
then I find another way

to take it to another level.

- So you never thought
about leaving him,

even after all the
times he cheated?

You didn't feel
short on the bills?

You never just
wanted to just leave?

- Now. I didn't say that.

I wanted to leave 1,000 times,

but I realized it's
nothing out there.

And before I start a
relationship with somebody new,

I might as well
work on this one.

- You know what? You right.

I need to work on
fixing my relationship

before I do something
I'm gon' regret.

- I think that would
be a good idea.

And like I said, I just
called to check on you.

- Hey Ma, I'm thankful that
I still got you in my life.

I really love you.

- I love you more baby.

Now, you go and you make
your marriage better, okay?

You can have him take

Okay. Come with me.

painting for $100,000.

'Preciate that.

Oo, that's a
nice tip.

Hey Rich. How you doing?

rain check for ya.

- Debra, are you

And I'm not taking a
rain check from you.

- I guess so.

Mm.

So you get a chance to see
Sammy's little girlfriend?

Jax.

- I'm sorry baby. Were

- Are you happy?

- What is happy?

I mean like really what is it?

We got a lot of money.
We have nice cars.

Our son is healthy
and extremely happy,

but what are we doing?

- Well, I live for you and Sam.

I mean, what else you
want me to do Jax?

Because for you, I
will do anything.

- I got you something.

- You did?

- Yeah. It's not
nothing really big.

It's just something to
tell you that I'm sorry.

- And I love it.

- And I love you.

Malik.

- Hm.

Mm.

What you 'bout to do?

- Got a few errands to run.

- Oh yeah. That picture
you bought came.

- Really?

Mm hm.

- Great. What did you think?

- I didn't look at it.

- Why? I bought it for you.

- Really?

So you spent $100,000
on a picture for me

from a artist I
never even heard of?

- Well, nobody knew
who Van Gogh was

before he became Van Gogh.

- Good point.

- Well, do you wanna see it?

Sure.

- All right. Just
gimme a second.

I'll come back and show you.

- All right.

Hmph.

So what you think?

- Actually, I think I see why
you bought it. I like this.

What's the artist name?

You really like it?

Yes. I like this.

- Um, Malik Brown.

- Hm. What else do he got?
I think I wanna meet him.

- Meet him?

I really don't know how to
get in contact with him,

but I can get his info for you.

But I know you like it.

- That's because you
know me very well.

You know I love
you and Sam, right?

- And we love you
too, very much,

but I gotta hurry up.

I gotta get ready to go.

- So,

right now I have the
power to let you buy 30%

of the shares of Live Talk.

After that, you can buy the
ones from 15 other investors

who have between 21 and 25%,

putting you at
roughly 51 to 55%,

and complete control
of the company.

- Are you sure you
can make this happen?

It just seem like a lot of
moving parts with this deal.

- Moving parts is
what I do best.

Yes, I'm sure. I'm willing
to bet my life on it.

- How much are you talking?

Exactly how much would
you need from me?

- Well, now we're talking.

$10,000,000 and I will make
you the most powerful woman

of your time.

- Bitch.

- Excuse me?

- Sorry. Sorry.

I see a friend of mine's
wife in here. He's not here.

She's doing the things she
should be doing with him

with another guy.

- I see. I was about to say.

Well, it doesn't seem like she's
a good wife to your friend.

- Loyalty is everything.

- I agree. Are you loyal?

- Yes I am, loyal to the most
important person in the world.

- And who would
that be? Your wife?

Cassandra,
I like your style.

Myself.

I'm loyal to me.

You see, I understand that
the one thing you can bet on

is that a person will always
do what's best for them.

- And is that why
you're doing this deal?

You're doing what's
best for you?

- I'm doing what any
good business man

would do to feed his family.

- Okay.

I'm in.

Where would you like for
me to send the money?

- I will send that to you
in an hour. Thank you.

- Sounds good.

By the way, are you gonna tell
your friend about his wife?

- Like I said,

a person's always gonna
do what's best for them.

She's just doing
what's best for her.

- I hear that, but
we'll be talking soon.

- Thank you.

You won't regret this.

- I hope not.

Remember, you bet your life
you could get this done, right?

- Right.

- This is Rich Steed.

- Hey, it's Cassandra.
Here's the deal.

I'm supposed to
send him $10,000,000

when he texts me
where to send it.

- Okay, perfect.

Let me know when he sends
you the wire information.

He's our first
meeting this morning

and I'm on my way to
pick up Adam right now.

- He's really a self
righteous son of a bitch.

- Yes. That he is.

Just keep me posted about the
wire information, all right?

- Okay. Thanks. I'll wait
for your text to send it.

- How you doing, Rich?

- Good, sir. How you
doing this morning?

- Cool, I guess.

- Can I ask you something?

- Yeah. Go 'head.

- You believe in
love at first sight?

- I don't know about that
one. Why you asked me that?

- 'Cause

felt like second I saw you, I
knew you was the one for me.

- You know I really didn't
sleep that well last night.

- No? How come? What's been
going on with you, man?

You should be happy.

Company's about to go public,

literally making you one
of the richest people

on the planet.

- Yeah. Well money
isn't everything, Rich.

The more that I live, the more
I realize that Sammy and Jax

are the reason I
smile, not the money.

- How many women are
you sleeping with?

- Why you asked me that?

- 'Cause we're having
unprotected sex

and I don't wanna take
nothing home to my husband.

- You the one cheating
on your husband.

You shouldn't have
been asking me

about how many people I'm with.

I should be asking you about
how many people you with.

- I ain't mean it like that.

- What you mean it like then?

- I'm just saying

I really like you.

And I know I can't ask you
not to see other women,

but I'll just wish you wouldn't.

- Look. Let's not talk about
other people when we together.

I'm not gon' ask you
about your husband.

And I would love it if
you just don't ask me

about other women.

Let's just enjoy
each other time.

- Okay.

I'll play by your rules.

I'm scared that I
like you too much.

Look.

I promise not to
break your heart

if you promise not
to break mines.

- And I promise to protect
yours with everything in me.

- Good.

- Listen, uh, back
to business here.

Sandra met with
William this morning.

- Okay and?

- Told her $10,000,000.

- Really?

All of my life's work is only
worth $10,000,000 to him?

Wow.

- Well, he's your first
meeting this morning.

She's not gonna send him
anything until we tell her to.

- Good.

I'll take it from there.

- She just sent the
wire information.

- Okay. Let her know we gon'
be with him in 20 minutes.

And you gonna let her know
when to send the money.

- All right. You got it.

You know, I can't
help but wonder why

a man that is getting everything

would cross the person
that has done everything

to make their lives better.

- Because men don't wanna
say another man helped them,

but real men know that you
won't get nowhere in life

without the help
from another person.

I learned so much from
the people before me

and I have no problem with
giving people their credit.

- Excuse me, Adam.
William is here.

- Send him in.

Hey, text her and tell
her to send the money.

- You got it.

- Hey, Hey. Hey.

How you doing?

- I'm good. And you?

- I'm well. Thank you.

How's Jaclyn and Sam doing?

- They good.

- Great.

Great. Glad you and
the family are well.

Are you?

- Yes. Yes. I am.

- Rich can you take yourself
and Yolanda to a early lunch?

- I'd rather not.

- Leave

now.

So do you really care
how my family is doing?

- Yeah, of course. Why
would you even ask that?

- Because I saw
the way you smiled

when you just got
that text message.

You care to share?

- Share what?

- What made you smile
so much in your text.

- No. I'd rather not.

- Why?

- Because it's my
phone and it's private.

- Come on, man. It's
not that damn private.

- Adam, it was a
text from my wife.

- Really? I never thought
your wife was that damn funny.

- What the hell is
that supposed to mean?

- It means you a
lying ass bitch.

- Who the fuck are
you talking to?

- A lying ass bitch.

I wanna say son of a bitch,

but your parents ain't got
nothing to do with this.

Do you even know what I did
before I got into computers?

- No.

Why?

- Because I think
if you did know,

you wouldn't be trying
to fucking play me.

See it's niggas like you

that go to those fancy
schools and get y'all degrees

that will never understand me.

- What the hell are
you talking about?

- You think you better than me

and that's sad

because I had your back.

I'm the one that
gave you a chance

and you crossed me.
- I never crossed-

- Man watch who you talking
to! I don't work for you!

Now what the hell was so
funny that made you smile

in your text message?!

- Jesus Adam. My wife
sent me a naked picture.

- Nigga stop lying!

Your wife body ain't
even that goddamn bad.

- Watch it.

- Be honest.

It was that $10,000,000
that Cassandra just sent you

wasn't it?

- I can, I can explain
that, all right?

I'm... You a, you a bitch?

A lying ass bitch?

Man I hate the fact
that I even trusted you.

So was that
$10,000,000 worth it?

- No, it's not about
the money, Adam.

It's about the power
and I wanted it.

Let me go. I can't breathe.

- Oh, you wanna fucking breathe?

You don't care if
my fucking kids ate.

I should fucking beat the
life out you right now.

But you ain't even
worth it. What?!

Speak.

- Get off. - What's good?

- So I'ma ask you again. Was
that $10,000,000 worth it?

- No. Of course not. - No?

But it was when you thought
it was gon' help her

take my company away
from me wasn't it?

I should take your life.

- I'll give her the money back.

I swear to God-

- I don't want you to do shit,

but to get the fuck
outta my building

'fore I kill yo weak ass.

- But listen, I can get-

- But nothing! Get
the fuck out! Now!

- So this is it?

- Wait really?

Just know I'm not gon' rest
until I make your life hell.

So matter of fact, I think I'm
gon' rest real good tonight.

What's that
supposed to mean, Adam?

- Check your accounts. Check
all three of your accounts.

- What are you even talking...

Where's all my money,
Adam? Where's all my money?

- Yo' money?

Oh, that $10,000,000
is back in my account

and that $300,000 in change,

oh, that's going to Cassandra

and you, you going to jail.

Your wife is gonna leave you

and your kids are
gonna hate you.

- Leave my kids-

- I don't give a fuck if
them little bitches starve!

And you lucky I don't
want your ugly ass wife

or that bitch would
belong to me too.

- Wake up! Your own wife
don't even belong to you.

Your boss has lost
his damn mind.

- Really?

From where I'm standing,

it looks like you're the
one that's lost their mind.

Ah, just in time.

- What the hell? - These

two gentlemen would love to

have you work with them.
- The hell is going on, Rich?

- Insider trading, asshole.

- Is there anything
you want me to do?

- Yeah, have William's
office cleant up?

You have
reached the voice mailbox of...

- You okay?

- Yeah. Yeah. I'll be fine.

I gotta grab my
jacket. I'll be back.

- Remember you have a meeting
in an hour with the lawyers.

- Hey, how you doing, sir?

- Hey, I'ma drive myself. You
go ahead up to the office.

- You know I can't do that.

You gotta have me and Rich
with you at all times.

- Look Carlton, the
security is not for me.

It's for the people that think

they might do something
to me, all right?

I'm good. Go 'head.

- Please, boss.

- Carlton, I said I'm
good. Go ahead all right?

- Baby!

Baby!

Malik, where you at?

- What the fuck?

- Fuck.

Shit.

Fuck.

- Who the fuck are you?

- Malik, who is this woman?

- Malik, who the
fuck is this bitch?

Who is this woman?

- I'm his wife bitch.

- Your wife?

Yeah.

- But it's not, it's
not what it looks like.

- Oh it's not what
it looks like?

It looks like you in here

not giving a fuck about
our family, Malik.

Jas.

Really?

Jas!

Jas!

- Don't touch me.

- Jasmine, what are you doing?

- Don't touch me! What am I
doing? What are you doing?

- Man, where is you going?

- I'm going home
to our two kids.

You know the ones that
look just like you,

the ones that you haven't
spent any time with

because you're busy working.

Bae!

Jas, let me talk to you.

Bae!

Jas!

Jas!

Jas!

Jas!

- Was it worth it? What?
Don't look so surprised.

- Um.

- What, my wife?

What you covering up for?
I already seen you naked.

- I'm not.

- So was it worth it?

- No.

- Why Jax?

- I don't know.

- Why did you do it?

- Because,

'cause I'm a damn fool.

- I'm glad you know
you a goddamn fool!

Ain't nobody gon' ever
love you the way I do!

What about Sam?

What about the
last past 10 years?

You gon' throw that away
over a piece of dick?!

- It wasn't like that.

- So this where you was fucking?

This where you been meeting him?

This where you was
sucking his dick?

You did suck his dick, right?

Answer me! Did you
suck his dick?!

- Yes.

Hey man, what
the fuck is you doing

in my crib, man?

Hey, don't I know you?

No, you don't know me.

- Man, I do know you.

What the fuck is you
doing in my house, man?

- You like fucking men's wives?

What? You at a loss for words?

- Baby, wake up please.

Baby, wake up please.

Baby, can you wake up?

This I swear I didn't mean
for this shit to happen.

Please wake up.

- Put your hands up!

I said put your

hands up!
- I didn't do this shit, man.

I didn't do this!

- I said, put your hands up.

I didn't do this
man! I didn't do this!

- What did you just do?

Man, what was you thinking?!

What you gon' tell Sam?

Why did you have to
make me do this?!

Why did you mess around on
me?! I wasn't good enough?!

- Hello?

Boss. You
missed your meeting.

Is everything all right?

- Meet me at the house.

Well, what
about the meeting?

- Just meet me at
the house! Please!

- Okay.
- Okay. I'll be there.

So
you really gon' sit there

and act like you
didn't kill that woman?

- I didn't! I told you
I didn't touch her.

- So why in the hell
your neighbors tell us

they heard you two arguing, huh?

They heard you say
you would kill her.

- I would never say that, man.

I'm a artist. I
don't hurt people.

- Wait so you don't kill people?

No!

- So dead people just tend to
find their way into your home?

I'm gonna assume that
that's not her blood

on you too, right?

- Look it is. But I
didn't put it there.

Right.

- Look, my partner
doesn't believe you

because you were the
only person there alive.

- No I wasn't. It was a
man. It was a man there.

- A man? You gotta
give us more than that.

Otherwise you fucking yourself.

How did he look?

- Like a man.

- Just admit that
you did this shit

so I can go home to my husband.

- Look,

he had to be around
35 to 40 years.

- Okay. And how tall
was this mystery man?

- I don't know, like 5'10
", 5'11". I don't know.

- Get the fuck outta here.

- It was just confirmed.

- Do you realize
you just murdered

one of Michigan's most
wealthiest people?

- Reed, what are you
talking about? Fill me in.

- The dead woman
is Jaclyn Hewer.

- Get the hell outta here.

Did you know you were banging

one of the richest
women in Michigan?

- Yeah. I guess.

- You guess? You guess?

Ni-

I'll be right back.
Johnson, come with me.

Maybe Mr. Brown here can
come up with the truth

by the time we come back.

- Look, I am telling the
truth. Okay? I loved her.

Man I-

Me and her didn't
have no problems.

- You loved her?

Aw, you loved her,
but you had a wife.

So like I said,

you let us know when you
ready to tell me the truth.

Let's go.

Man I don't believe
anything that...

I don't believe
anything he's saying.

He killed that
woman in cold blood.

Now we gotta find out why.

- Well, what if he didn't do it?

- What? You must be
off your meds again.

'Cause if he didn't do it,

why is all that
blood on him, huh?

If he didn't do it,

why was there so many
calls about the fight

between them two?

Come on Johnson. Please
explain all of this to me.

- You're my partner.

If I have all the answers,
you will have 'em as well.

My gut is telling me that
man did not kill that woman.

- Yeah well I think
your gut is wrong.

- He said another
man was there, right?

- Right.

- All I'm saying is maybe
we should look into that.

See if there's any truth to it.

- Okay. Well let's go question
him about the husband then.

- What in the hell
happened to you?

- I killed my wife.

- You what?

Wait, wait. Hold on. Hold
on. W-w-what happened?

- I caught her at
some dude house

and I lost it.

Damn, I fucking lost it,
man. I killed my wife.

Hey. Hey.

- Man, what was I thinking?

- Get yourself together
first. All right?

Carlton, take the car.

Have it cleaned from top
to bottom. All right?

Make sure you switch the
plates. Okay? Come on.

We gotta get you inside and
get you out of them clothes.

Get a bag.

Put everything that you're
wearing inside that bag.

Oh and I'll take care of it.

What'd you kill her with?

- Did anybody see you?

- Only dude she was fucking.

Anybody else?

- No. I parked around the
corner. He the only person I saw.

- You got the address
on you? Let me get it.

- All right.

I'm gonna go check
the place out,

make sure there aren't
any cameras there, okay?

- Rich, what am I gon' tell Sam?

- You don't have to
say anything, okay?

You can't let anybody know
that you know that she's dead.

All right?

Now the cops and Sam are
both gonna be here soon

and you have to put on the
best goddamn performance

of your life today.

You understand me?

- Yeah. I understand.

- Let's go inside and get
you out of them clothes.

Mr. Brown,

how long have you been
seeing Jaclyn Hewer?

- A few weeks.

- Were you two having
a sexual relationship?

- Yeah.

- And how did your
wife feel about that?

- Look, that's what I've
been trying to tell y'all.

My wife walked in on us, okay?

I went chasing after
her. We got to arguing.

That's what the neighbors heard.

When I came back
in the building,

I saw a man dripping
in blood.

When he left, I ran in
there trying to save her,

But she was already gone.

Can
you describe that man?

- Look, he was
like 5'10 " 5'11".

Bald head.

Looks like he wear
suits all the time.

Lil' preppy looking dude.

Um,

that's him!

That's the dude that rubbed
blood on me. That's him!

- So he wiped blood on you?

- Yes! That's what I've
been trying to tell y'all.

- Okay. We'll be back.

We have to get a warrant now

before he destroys
all the evidence.

- I guess your gut was right.

- Let's go.

- Officer Williams.

- How we doing today, Rich?

- I'm okay. How's that
new daughter of yours?

- Oh, beautiful man. The
wife couldn't be happier.

- That's...

- Could've used a boy though.

- Ah, couldn't we all, huh?

Now you know what
they say though?

It is never too early
to start a college.

- I can't argue with that.

- Have yourself a
good night, Williams.

- You too.

- Look around. This
place is a mess.

But what's one
thing you don't see?

I don't know. What?

- Fingerprints, all this
blood, not a fingerprint,

a boot print anywhere.

- You are absolutely right.

- He killed her and he thinks
he's getting away with it.

- He had to make a mistake.
There is no perfect murder.

- Look, I'm telling you I
didn't do it. All right?

It's the dude that's
on TV. All right?

He was coming outta my
building, shirt bloody.

His eyes had fire in it,
man. He was gon' kill me.

The only reason he
ain't let that gun off

'cause he knew it
would've been a wrap.

Everybody would've seen him.

- So are there any
cameras in the building?

Hey. I need you to
go over to Malik's.

Take a look around the building

and tell me if there
are any cameras

that would've caught
the other guy running.

Police, we have a warrant

to search the home and SUV.

Can I help you?

- We have a warrant to search
the home. Excuse me, miss.

- Mr. Hewer!

Where is Adam Hewer?

- He's upstairs. Mr. Hewer!

- What's going on? And why the
hell are y'all in my house?

- I'm Detective Reed. This is
my partner, Detective Johnson.

Can we talk somewhere private?

- What's going on?

- Let's talk please.

- Yeah. Okay. In here.

- Dad is everything okay?

- Yeah. Everything is okay, son.

Debra, can you take
him upstairs for me?

- Yes sir. Come on baby.

- Right this way.

So what's going on?

You got all these
police in my house,

scaring the hell outta my son.

I hope y'all got a hell
of a explanation for this.

Where's your wife?

- I don't know. She
should be here soon. Why?

- When and where did
you last see her?

- I don't know! Why?!
What's going on?!

- I'm the one asking
the questions.

- No you in my house.

So y'all need to tell
me what's going on.

- Sorry to inform you,
your wife's body was found.

She was murdered.

- What?

That's not true.

- Mr. Hewer, gonna need
you to get off your phone.

- I'm calling my wife!

- Sir, I just told
you she's dead.

- Baby, pick up.

Baby,

pick up.

- Mr. Hewer, she's dead.

- No my fucking
wife is not dead!

Shut the hell up!

- Mr. Hewer, what's,
what's going on?

Mr. Hewer, what's wrong?

- Baby pick up.

- Mr. Hewer, I told
you she's dead.

- No!

She's not!

- I'm sorry, Mr. Hewer.

- What the...

- Mr. Hewer. Mr Hewer!

Mr. Hewer, it's gon' be okay.

Just breathe. God
got you covered.

- What am I gon' tell Sam?

- You gon' tell him that
his mother loved him

and that she's in heaven, okay?

Come on. We gotta get
back to the police.

- Okay.

Who did this to my wife?

- Well, right now we
have someone in custody.

Who?

- We can't give you
that information.

However, this person
said you were there.

- What? - What?

- And also said you were the
one who killed your wife.

- Man, that's crazy.
How's that even possible?

- Where were you this afternoon?

- I don't know what
you talking about.

- Why don't you write down
everywhere you've been today?

- How about I call my lawyer
and y'all could deal with him?

- How 'bout we arrest yo' ass
for the murder of your wife?

- Are you crazy? I wouldn't
kill my wife! I love my wife!

She's my everything!

- Well, did you know
that your everything

was seeing another man?

- Yes.

We had a open relationship.

- Hm. Do you have a girlfriend?

- Yes he does.

And Mrs. Hewer knew about
it so why would he kill her?

- Are you the one seeing him?

- Goodness no.

- What are they doing
with my clothes?

- Detective?

- We're taking 'em. Now what
car did you drive today?

- The Tahoe. Why?

- Hm. Take the Tahoe too.

- Yes ma'am. - Thanks.

- Look, I don't think I
should say anything else

to y'all until my
lawyer gets here.

Am I under arrest?

'Cause if not, I'm
done talking to y'all.

- Well you not under arrest,

but we are taking all
of them cars out there.

- I don't care about none of
that. I just want my wife back!

- I hear you.

We all good here?

- I think so. Okay.
Let's wrap it up.

Mr. Hewer, we will be in touch.

- Yeah. Okay.

- You did it. Didn't you?

- Excuse me?

- You killed your wife,
didn't you? It's all over you.

You murdered your wife
and I'm gonna prove it.

- I don't got nothing
else to say to you

until my lawyer gets here.

- I wouldn't expect anything
less. I'll see you soon.

- You get in touch with my wife?

- Yes,

I did.

And to say that she's
angry is an understatement.

- I'm sitting here facing murder

while the woman I really love
is out there dying slowly.

- Look,

I get it.

And I understand,
but I gotta ask,

did you do it?

- Really? I really gotta
answer that question?

- Yes, because I
need you to assure me

that I'm fighting for the
life of an innocent man.

- That son of a bitch
did it. I just know it

- Now you see what I
mean? The gut never lies.

- How do we prove it?

- We have to see if the
clothes come back clean

along with the vehicle.

If he really did it,

he wouldn't have had time
to clean everything up

and get rid of his clothes.

We do know one of
'em murdered her,

but if we have the wrong one,

the other one's gonna
have ample enough time

to clean up all his mistakes.

- Let's go.

- Excuse me.

- Excuse me? Is that
one of the Hewer cars?

- Yes. Why?

- Because if it is,
we need to seize it.

- Oh. Have at it. Nice catch.

- Hm.

- Let's go.

- Captain's gonna have
our heads for this.

- Hey son. Can I talk
to you for a minute?

- Yes. What's wrong?

- I really don't know
how to tell you this.

- Tell me what?

- It's about your mom.

- Dad, you're scaring me.

Yeah. I'm
scared to tell you.

- Tell me what?

- God called your
mom home today.

- Wait, what do you mean?

- Your mom is in heaven
son. She died today.

- What happened?

Look, I don't know.

But, son I promise you
everything is gonna be okay.

And I promise you that I'm
gon' be here for you. Okay?

- Dad, I don't know what
I'm gonna do without her.

I'm gonna miss her.

She's still gon' be here son

right here in your heart.

And whenever you need to
talk to her, you just talk.

She's in heaven, son.
She gon' hear you.

It's okay.

Great.

Now the whole world knows
that you're here for murder.

- What are my kids gon think?
Mom about to throw a fit.

Seriously?

You worried about your
mommy having a fit?

Malik, you got
much bigger things

to worry about than
that right now.

This is your life.

- I know that! The hell
I'm even talking about?

- Look, I'm just
simply trying to say

that we have to find
some kind of proof

that you didn't do this.

- Look. Ask my wife.
I was with her.

All right? We got
into a argument.

I chased her out
of the building.

When I came back in,
Jaclyn was already dead.

I keep telling all y'all the
same story. Nobody listening.

I'm only guilty of
two things here.

- Yeah and what's that?

- Cheating on my wife and
sleeping with a married woman.

- Me and my kids just
watched the fucking news

and my husband is
here for murder?

He didn't kill nobody!

- Ma'am calm down. What's
your husband's name?

- His name is Malik
Brown. He's an artist.

He's supposed to have
killed some rich bitch.

He didn't kill that bitch.

She was still alive when he
chased me outta his studio.

- Okay, well the detectives
working that case

aren't here right now, but
if you wanna have a seat,

I'll find out when
they're back, okay?

- Look, give me
your wife's address.

Because at this point,

she may be the only person
that could help you.

- Wouldn't hold your breath.

- Malik, look, she loves you

and I'm sure she
wouldn't wanna see you

go to prison for a
murder you didn't do.

Look, just sit tight and
let me take care of this.

Excuse me. Are you Mrs. Brown?

- And who are you?

- I'm Patrice Gatz. I believe
I'm your husband's lawyer.

- Malik?

- Yes. I was actually on
my way over to your house.

- I'm here trying to figure out

why the fuck my husband is
being charged with murder.

My house is a fucking zoo.
My kids is distraught.

My phone won't stop ringing.
My husband did not kill anyone!

- Okay. Can you hold on
a second for me, please?

Excuse me?

Yes?

I'm Patrice
Gatz, Malik Brown's attorney.

Is there somewhere that
I can speak to his wife

in private please?

- Oh yes ma'am. I
can take you there.

- Thank you.

Miss Brown, come with me please.

- All right. Truck is clean.

Everything is all good fellas.

- Are you sure? I mean, I
know there was a lot blood.

I don't know what I'ma do
without her. What's the plan?

- You gotta get
yourself together, boss.

Everything is taken care of.

- That's what we're here for.

To protect you and the company.

- Look, I appreciate
that fellas,

but I seen all those crime shows

and I know it's no such
thing as a perfect murder.

- Ah, but there is such
thing as a perfect cover up.

Hm. Speaking of which,
how did you find her?

- We share locations. I
always knew where she was.

- Damn.

Did you take any calls?

- What?

- Did you take any calls or use
the internet for any reason?

- I used the map app.

- Fuck man.

- Right? All right.

Gimme your phone. Use your
work phone, all right?

If anybody asks,
Jax had your phone.

- But I have my
phone up until now.

What do I say when
they ask me about that?

- Nothing. Nothing at all.
You say nothing to nobody.

- Won't that make
me look guilty?

- You already look guilty.
Have you seen the news?

They said she was messing
around with her lover

and all of a sudden,
she ended up dead.

Now they tryna blame
her billionaire husband.

- I can't believe this.

Sam is gonna hate me if he
think I hurt his mother.

- That's why we gon' make sure

that motherfucker
take the blame for it.

- Listen, these charges

that they have against
Malik are serious.

So is there anything that
you know that could help him?

I mean anything?

- Yes, that man that
was on the news,

he is the one that did this.

I seen him leaving Malik's
studio with a blue shirt on

and it was bloody and he
had something in his hand

and he was also, he was crying.

And then I seen him
hop into a black truck.

And now I'm being
told that Malik

is 'bout to be charged for
the murder of his wife?

I just, I don't understand,
like Malik wouldn't kill anyone.

- And are you willing to
write this out in a statement?

- Hell yeah, I am.

I love Malik and
yes, he hurt me,

but I still love my husband.

- Good. You know, I'll
be right back. Okay?

- Man, I still can't believe
she was really cheating on you.

Are you okay?

- No, I'm not okay!
I'm fucked up!

And the bad part is

I love her so much.

Why she messed around on
me? What was it about him?

- Look, boss,

you don't need to be thinking

about that kind of stuff
right now, all right?

Go get yourself some rest.

We'll meet you in the
morning, okay? Let's go.

- I'ma get no sleep tonight.

- So you mean to tell me

you saw Adam Hewer
in a bloody outfit?

- Yes, I seen that
clown in a bloody outfit

and he was crying.

- You're Malik's wife.
Why should we believe you?

- Why should you believe me?
Because I have it on my phone.

- Show me.

- Here.

The fuck?

- Was that him?

- Yeah. That's that nigga.
- Damn.

I mean, you know it's him,

but you can't
really see his face.

Damn it. - I told you

it was a gut call.

That son of a bitch
took his wife's life.

Mrs. Brown, thank you.

- Thank me?

So are y'all gonna
let my husband

outta that fucking jail cell?

- I can't,

but I am gonna
check the evidence

to make sure none of
her blood shows up.

- But y'all see
that it's not Malik.

- But you don't see his face.

We can know it's him, but
with no concrete proof,

our hands are tied.

It's nothing we can do.

- No. What y'all can do
is let my husband out.

- Now calm down.

- Calm down?

- Now you want us to
let him go, right?

But he has her blood all over
him, so it's not that easy.

- Y'all two see this is
clearly some bullshit.

- Nah.

What's some bullshit is he
had a dead woman in his place.

That's the thing
that's some bullshit.

Furthermore, I feel bad for
him, but we're doing our job.

We're doing everything we can

to make sure the right
person pays for this.

- Make sure you two do
y'all fucking job right.

Do you hear me?
Get outta my way.

- Mom, I'm so sorry, mom.

- You son of a bitch.

I know you killed my daughter
and I'm gon' prove it

if it's the last thing I do.

- Can we come in?

- Look, I told you two
everything yesterday.

- We just have a
few more questions.

- Come in.

How can I help you?

- You know Mr. Hewer
murdered his wife.

So why are you covering for him?

- I'm not covering for anybody.

Matter of fact, I don't
have a reason to lie to you.

- Looks to me like
you're moving.

- I am.

The Hewers bought me a home so
I'm moving in and unpacking.

- Look, we know
you're lying to us

and you will go to jail for it.

Is that what you really want?

Do you really wanna
go to jail for a man

who murdered his own
wife in cold blood?

- Look, I told you all I know.

And what I know is that man
did not murder his wife.

So if you two can excuse
me, I got things to do.

- How long have you
worked for them?

- Why?

- Because is this him?

You know it's him
'cause he murdered her.

He killed her and now
there's an innocent man

in jail right now, worried
that he's gonna do time

for her death.
- I told you he was at home.

- He murdered her. Now
stop lying for him.

- He was with my daughter.

- Your daughter? - Yes.

- Yeah. Okay.

- Look, she works for them.

- And what's your
daughter's name?

- Nikki Sloan.

- Where is she now?

- She's at the Hewers'.
She's their nanny.

She's the woman he's
been sleeping with.

And before you even ask, yes,
Mrs. Hewer knew all about it.

Matter of fact, they've been
together numerous of times.

- You know what? You the worst
mother I ever met in my life.

'Cause you know he killed
her and you covering for him.

- It's time for you to go.

- Hello?

- Hey babe. Who, who,
who you there with?

- Nobody, Ma. What's going on?

Listen, baby.

Adam actually killed Jaclyn.

- Oh my God.

What the fuck?

He's downstairs talking
to his lawyer right now.

You want me to take Sammy
and go to the police?

No.

I want you to fuck him.

- What?

- Matter of fact, I need
you to make him your man.

- Are you crazy?

I'm not doing that.

- Oh yes, you are gon' do it.

Baby, that man is 'bout
to be a billionaire.

Baby he could change
our lives forever

and we will never have
another opportunity like this.

- I'm hungry. Can you
make me something to eat?

- Mama, I am not doing that.

- Baby, we will lose
everything we have.

Okay? If that man goes to jail.

Now he just may beat this
case, but he may go to jail.

Nikki, we know how much
that man love his wife.

He was the best husband to her.

We talked about it all
the time, but baby,

we will never have
another opportunity

for this man to change
our world, okay?

- Look, I gotta make him
something to eat real quick.

I'll call you back in a minute.

- Nikki, you don't want
that baby growing up

without his parents, right?

And besides, you
can't even have kids.

- Why would you bring
that up right now?

- Because we will never
have this chance again.

And this is your opportunity
to have the world.

Baby, a good man,
a beautiful home,

and a son that you
can raise to be great.

- Mom, I gotta go. I call
you back in a minute.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

The fuck?

- Did you kill her?

- No.

Looking at
the three of you guys,

I think you're lying.

I think you did and I have
to have complete honesty

or I can't help you.

In fact, I won't help
you if you lie to me.

- Look, he's one of the
only lawyers I trust

in this area, all right?

- Yeah, I did it.

- All right. Now we're talking.

We gotta get you
an airtight alibi.

What did you tell the detectives
when you talked to 'em?

- I didn't.

- Good

and here's the thing.

The police have
to charge somebody

with murdering your wife.

Right now, the news
is going crazy.

I mean, it's the top
story in the country.

From here on out, you don't
say anything to anyone,

especially the police.

And that goes for all of you.

I'm the only one that'll
have any contact with 'em.

That's gonna cost you about
$500,000 if this goes to trial.

- Well hopefully I don't
even have to go to trial.

- Right. Exactly.

So just let us know
whatever you need us to do.

And I'll take care of it.

- I will.

- Come with me.

- Just a minute!

Hello, can I help you?

We're
here to see Mr. Hewer.

- Well, he's actually
in a meeting right now.

- I don't give a damn.
You tell him we're here.

- What the hell is going on now?

This is starting
to be harassment.

- I'm representing
Mr. Hewer right now.

Anything you say to him has
to be done in my presence.

Understood?

- Yes sir. But you here now.

So I just need one
thing answered.

Mr. Hewer, where were you
when your wife was murdered?

- You don't have to answer that.

- Look. He was with me
at my place, making love.

That's where we always at.

- So you just gon' lie for him?

Your mother put you up
to this, didn't she?

- No, I would never do
that. I actually love him.

- On your way.

If they come back, let me know.

- Will do.

Thank you.

- Nah don't thank
me. Thank my mama.

And most of all, thank your son,

'cause I'll do anything
for that little boy.

- Look, I swear I'ma
do right by him.

- No you gon' do right by all
of us and you bet not hurt me.

- Consider it done.

- You know she's lying, right?

- There's nothing we can do
about it. You have to let it go.

All the evidence is
pointing at Mr. Brown.

I guess that's karma,
his punishment,

for sleeping with
that man's wife.

- Still not right.

- Malik Brown,

you have been accused of
the murder of Jaclyn Hewer.

How do you plead?

- I didn't do it.
I didn't kill her.

- Miss Gatz, please get
your client under control.

- Calm down. My
apologies, your honor.

My client pleads not guilty.

- People of the state,
how are you on bail?

- Mr. Brown beat his
mistress to death

because she was leaving
him and telling his wife.

- That bitch lying!
I didn't do that!

- Mrs. Gatz, please
inform your client

he is not at a backyard
barbecue at his mama's house.

This is a courtroom,
my courtroom.

And if he doesn't get
his self under control,

I will have him hog
tied and muzzled.

- Again, my
apologies, your honor.

- Mrs. Fields, please continue.

- Thank you, your honor.

We're asking for
bail of $1,000,000.

- That is crazy.

Your honor, Mr. Brown does
not have that kind of money.

- That's the point.

Mr. Brown, your bail
is set at $1,000,000.

- Fuck you.

- Well, that's something you
won't be doing for a while.

At least not with women.
Court's adjourned.

- I did it.

All
right. Now we talkin'.

We gotta get you
an airtight alibi.

- 911.
- What's your emergency?

- I know who killed my
mother, Jaclyn Hewer.

This is her son, Samuel
Hewer. I have video evidence.
