Fear Itself (2008–2009): Season 1, Episode 10 - Chance - full transcript
Chance Miller is a down-on-his-luck guy whose luck goes even worse when he finds himself dealing with his evil doppelganger.
Is everything all right?
Yeah.
Phew.
The landlord said today's it.
We're 3 months behind.
I know.
And you can tell him
that he will have
his money tomorrow.
You got the job?
Uh, no.
Um, but you remember that deal
that I was talkin'
about with Ronnie?
Yeah, the bookie.
Yeah.
But it... it's
different this time.
Look... Look, this is
a good thing, okay?
This is going to give us
the money that we need
to start our own place.
What happened to the job?
Anybody can go and get
a regular job, Jackie.
I'm going to make
more this afternoon
than I would make
in six months
selling copy toner.
And plus, this is a sure thing.
I don't want
a sure thing, Chance.
I just... I want you.
I want us.
And you will have it.
Today.
I promise.
I got to go.
I'm going to be late for work.
We'll celebrate
this evening, okay?
Come on.
Are you kiddin' me?
You cannot be serious.
Markham Antiques.
Hi, uh, Walter?
Who... who's this?
Um, it... it's me, uh,
it's Chance Wilson.
Chance?
Yeah, um, from the party.
Remember? You told me
to come here at 5:00,
and it's... I mean,
it's just 10 to 5:00 now.
Look, I'm closing up early.
Can we talk after the holidays?
Well, I've got the vase
that we talked about.
I'm... I'm right here,
I'm out front right now.
What vase?
The one you told me about.
You know, from...
From Ray Hoffman.
Hello?
Hello?
Chance?
Sure, I remember you now.
My office is back here.
You had a lady
with you, didn't you?
Beautiful, as I recall.
Oh, that's
my girlfriend, Jackie.
Pretty, ain't it?
Yeah.
Guy from Montreal
found it in his
grandmother's attic.
16th century Italian
painted gilt wood.
Mirror's worthless,
but the frame,
to the right buyer,
worth five figures.
Wow.
But don't tell the guy
in Montreal that.
What you got?
Um, well, there it is,
there's the piece.
Ah.
Nice, beautiful markings.
Nice craftsmanship.
Yeah, that's what
I thought when I saw it.
♪♪
Oh, hold on.
I'll give you 5,000 for it.
Five?
Well, that's...
That's significantly
different than
what you said before.
Oh, it's a beautiful piece.
At first glance, it looks like
it's from the Congee period,
which would make it 1600s,
but this one's from
a much later period.
Same coloring.
See this marking right here?
That means it's from the 1800s.
Common mistake.
I'd be lucky to get,
uh, six, seven grand
for it at auction.
Which is pretty good,
if you ask me,
for a damn flower vase.
But wait.
Can we back up a little bit?
Um, see,
you promised me
a... a certain price
if I was able to get it cheap
without letting Hoffman
know that you were...
Hoffman?
Yeah, Ray Hoffman.
He's the guy that...
That owned the vase.
You introduced me to him.
You can tell him what I said.
No, I... I don't think
that you understand.
Look, I'll be happy
to tell him myself.
You got his phone number?
I'll call him.
No, I'll call him.
Just give me one second.
Sorry, the number
you have reached
is not in service.
Please check the number
and dial again.
Look, just so we're clear,
This... This is the vase.
This is the one that Ray bought
at Charles and Sons
in London two years ago,
that's the one.
What do I do for a living, huh?
I know antiques.
If this was from
the Congee period,
it'd be a very desirable piece.
Look, come back on Monday,
I'll give you
a check, all right?
Well, actually Tuesday,
I won't be back till Tuesday.
But come back on Tuesday,
I'll give you $5,000.
You got my word.
Come on, look, I got to pack.
My wife's gonna kill me,
I'm going away for the weekend.
No, I need what you promised me.
We made a deal.
A deal?
You said that you
were going to give me
$45,000 for it.
I did? When?
At the party last month.
Look, we had a conversation,
but I'd hardly say
that was a deal, man.
No, no, no.
I put everything
that I had into that vase
because of what you told me.
You didn't, did you?
So what'd you pay him, 10, 15?
20?
Oh, man.
That's got to hurt, man.
We were at the party, okay?
You and I were talking,
you were talking
about rare finds.
And you said that
you had seen one
at Ray's apartment, and that...
That even he didn't realize
how valuable it was.
So I went there,
I went to his apartment
the next day.
And he gave me a price,
and I talked him down
just like you told me to do.
I didn't mention your name.
I said that I was
the private collector.
I did everything you said to do.
So? You got it.
Congratulations.
But, oops.
Yeah, I saw it,
but from a distance.
Should have done your homework.
Should have checked for
the marking on the bottom.
I didn't know about
a mark on the bottom.
Well, who's fault is that?
Wow.
Huh.
No, I... I get it now.
Get what?
So this whole thing...
You and him are in it together.
Me and Hoffman?
I should have
thought of that one.
This whole thing
is a con, isn't it?
You're making
some tall accusations.
You better watch
what you're saying.
You see, the thing is,
I know you have it.
Have what?
The cash.
You see, the people that
brought me to the party
said that you always
keep large sums of cash
here in your office
because you're always
doing these back room,
under the table deals,
just like this one,
in cash.
So that's what
this is all about?
It's what everything is about.
Fine.
For your trouble.
No. No, no.
I need what you promised me.
Chance, go home.
Figure it out.
You want to play in this game,
you got to be smart.
So you got screwed.
Weren't you trying
to screw somebody else?
You come marching in here
all outraged,
you know, making accusations.
Grow up.
Get out of here. I'm busy.
Chance.
Don't forget your vase.
What the f...
Pathetic.
What, are you going to
bash my head in now, too?
No.
No, that... that was an accident.
He... he fell.
Really?
God,
because that... that doesn't
look like an accident.
Whoo.
Looks like the son of a bitch
finally got what he deserved.
Nicely done.
You want a smoke?
No.
Got a little bit of a mess here.
Want some help?
No, I don't... I don't
want your help.
Suit yourself.
Hey, where are you going?
Aah!
Oh, stop, stop, stop,
stop, stop, stop.
Shh. Shh.
Oh, no.
No, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, shut up.
Stop.
Oh, crap.
Shut up.
Oh, shut up.
Aah.
Hello?
Prima security.
I see you just had
a fire detector go off.
Um, yeah, no, I, uh...
It's okay, I took care of it.
Are you sure everything's okay?
Yeah.
Yeah, everything's fine.
What's the security password?
Security password?
Should I send
somebody out there?
No. Um,
no, no, no need.
The password, sir.
Um, is it...
Is it... is it antiques?
I'm sorry, sir.
Um, how about cigarette?
That is not
the correct password.
Look, I, uh,
I just started
working here, so I...
Would you put someone on
who knows the password?
Uh, yeah, I'm the only one
here right now.
Hello?
Hello?
Hello?
Oh, no.
Oh.
Ugh.
Anybody in there?
Hello? Anybody?
This is unit 17.
Maybe we ought to call
P.D. in on this.
Hold on that.
Hi.
You had a smoke detector go off?
Uh, yeah.
Um, it was just a cigarette.
I dropped a cigarette.
It's fine, though.
Anybody else in there?
You're worried about
the password thing, aren't you?
I don't know.
Am I?
See, look, here's the thing.
I just started working here,
and, um, the owner,
he... he... he left
for the weekend,
for the holiday, you know.
And before he left,
he didn't tell me
anything about an alarm
or a password, or anything.
Mind if I come in?
Well, I was... I was...
Was just locking up, actually.
It was just a cigarette
that I dropped,
and there's...
There's no need to.
Sorry.
Standard company policy.
Right.
Yeah, come on in.
You want to get the lights?
Um,
actually, the switch is...
It's broken.
You know, like I said,
I was just locking up,
and I was going to come back
on, um, Tuesday.
Why don't you show me
where the detector is?
Yeah.
It's, uh, it's right back there.
So you sell antiques, huh?
Yeah, obv... obviously.
Yeah, my wife's
into all that stuff.
What's that show,
the one where people
bring all their old crap
out of their attics and stuff?
She watches it all the time.
Never met a garage sale
she didn't like.
Keeps thinking
she's gonna hit it big
one of these days,
find some plate or dish
or something
worth a million bucks.
Got anything in here worth that?
Well, maybe...
Maybe not a million,
but there's a few things.
The smoke detector's
back in here.
It's busted in here, too?
Uh-huh.
Where is it?
It's, uh,
that's... that's where it was,
right up there.
Well, there it is.
Oh, you took it down.
I can, uh, put it back up
for you. Where is it?
No, I, uh,
I threw it away.
I'm probably just going
to go get a new one,
because, uh,
it's been going off
a lot lately.
Well, they never told me that.
I'd better call the office.
They might be having a problem
with your electrical...
No. No, no, don't do that.
I don't have time
to deal with it
right now, so, I just...
You know, I appreciate
you coming out here,
I just, um, come back
after the holiday,
bring your wife,
and I'll give her a good deal
on something here
at the store, huh?
Serious?
Sure.
All right.
What's that?
Holy... did you see that?
Where were you?
Where did you go?
I was looking for you.
So now you want my help?
No.
No, I don't need your help.
You know, that was...
That was pretty brutal,
back there, that thing
with the rent-a-cop.
What, you... you saw that?
Oh, yeah.
You want a drink?
No.
You were just about
to leave, too.
Ugh.
Jackie needs...
You really think that
that's a good idea?
I mean, you got two dead bodies.
I mean, your fingerprints
are everywhere.
Not to mention the money...
The money that tight-ass
conned you out of.
I mean, I bet he's got
at least that much
laying around here somewhere.
No, I need... I need to clean up.
Didn't he say something
about, uh, what was it,
him and his wife
going away on vacation.
He said,
that "if I don't start
packing soon, she'll kill me."
that's ironic.
But it also means
she'll be here any minute.
What exactly are you going to do
with these bodies?
I don't know.
Put them in the basement
or something.
Are you sure about that?
How long do you think
before the wife
notices the smell?
By then, I will be long gone.
I just need to get out of here
so that there's nothing
that links me to this place.
Didn't you call the store
on your cell phone?
Just go, go.
All right.
Hold it, hold it, hold it.
Okay.
All right.
Okay.
All right.
Come on, we got to hurry.
You know, this whole thing
was a hustle.
No, he made me a promise.
You kiddin' me?
That's all B.S.
The two of them
were in on it together
from the get-go.
Yeah, I don't understand that.
Could you please
explain it to me?
Because Hoffman
got you 20 grand,
or should I say the 20 grand
that you scrounged together
between the bank,
your neighbor and the bookie.
And do you really think
that it was just a coincidence
that his phone
was out of service?
Come on. You're not
that stupid, are you?
But how did they know
they were gonna
get away with it?
Because they're con-men,
that's what they do.
They prey on suckers
like you, Chance.
You... you walk into that party
with the stench of desperation.
They could smell it
all over you.
No, because
he offered me $5,000.
Even if you took it,
he'd still pocket 15 grand.
Not bad, if you ask me.
Ooh.
Don't want to leave
these guys laying around.
Ah.
Hey.
Hi, it's me.
Where are you?
I'm still here. I'm just,
you know, finishing up the deal.
It's 7:00.
Yeah.
I know. I just,
uh, everything's
going a little longer
than I thought.
Is everything okay?
Yeah.
Everything's fine,
just like I told you.
Um, did... did you get the money?
Yeah.
Well, that's so exciting.
I know, isn't it great?
Listen, I should...
I should probably go, okay?
Ok, well, I have Monday off,
so I was thinking we could
go away together.
You know, just you and me.
Good.
That's a great idea.
But can we talk about it
when I get home?
Yeah, yeah.
Okay. I can't wait.
Love you.
Okay.
Was that Jackie?
So what are you going
to tell her now?
I don't know.
I'll think of something.
- Ooh.
- Walter?
Honey?
That'd be the wife.
Walter?
You in here?
Hmm.
You need more time.
You need time to find the money.
And you need time
to get out of here.
Walter?
I mean, really,
when you think about it,
there's no way around it.
Where are you?
You're going to have
to get rid of her.
No.
No. This whole thing
wasn't supposed to happen.
It was an accident.
The whole thing was a mistake.
I know.
But now you got to finish
what you started.
Look, Chance.
It's time for you
to take what you deserve.
I will not be your excuse.
It's not an excuse.
What are your other options?
You think you can
go back home empty-handed?
What are you going
to tell your landlord?
Or even better yet,
what are you going
to tell Jackie?
How do you think
she's going to respond
when you come home one more time
telling her that you
screwed it all up?
Huh?
You promised her.
It's got to be tough
always being the nice guy, huh?
You just need to realize
that the reason why
people walk all over you
is just because
they know they can.
Could you please stop?
I know that it must
be hard to hear, okay?
But I'm the only one that cares.
You need to get this done.
Find that money
and get your life
back on the track
that you deserve.
Look, this is
your one opportunity.
And if you don't take it,
that's it, it's over.
You do realize that, don't you?
Well can't I... can't I
just talk to her?
I mean, can't I force her
to tell me where the money is?
I mean, I don't really
have to kill her, do I?
You wouldn't make it two blocks
before she's on the phone
screaming to 9-1-1.
But I don't want
to kill a woman.
For 32 years,
I have been watching your life
spiral out of control.
Opportunity after opportunity
has been handed to you
while you've done nothing
but piss it away.
I'm not like you.
Yeah, I know.
That's the problem.
Walter?
Is that you?
I said no.
Jackie?
Jackie, are you home?
Hey, baby, it's me.
I just ran out to the store.
I'll be back in,
like, half an hour.
We're going to celebrate.
Well, the landlord
said today's it.
We're 3 months behind.
It's different this time.
This is a sure thing.
I don't want
a sure thing, Chance.
I just... I want you.
I want us.
And you will have it.
Today.
I promise.
We'll celebrate this evening.
I promise.
Chance, are you here?
Are you here?
Chance?
Yeah, I'm in the bedroom.
Okay, wait there,
I've got a surprise for you.
Okay.
Nice.
Wow.
45,000.
We should do this again.
Indeed.
All right, you have a good trip.
All right, see you man.
All right, all right.
Ah!
I really came through
for us this time, babe.
Everything's going
to be perfect.
Chance, what...
What?
What have... What have you done?
Oh, no!
Did you see that?
No, no!
No!
No, please don't!
No, please!
Oh, my God!
I'm sorry!
I'm so sorry!
No, don't!
No, not her! No!
Not her! No!
Aah!
Stop!
Shh!
Stop!
Let me see your hands.
Put your hands up.
I said put your hands up.
Beat her to death.
They said he ripped
her head off.
Watch your head.
He seemed like such a nice guy.
You never know.
You just never know
who you're living next to.
Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
Yeah.
Phew.
The landlord said today's it.
We're 3 months behind.
I know.
And you can tell him
that he will have
his money tomorrow.
You got the job?
Uh, no.
Um, but you remember that deal
that I was talkin'
about with Ronnie?
Yeah, the bookie.
Yeah.
But it... it's
different this time.
Look... Look, this is

a sure thing, Chance.
I just... I want you.
I want us.
And you will have it.
Today.
I promise.
I got to go.
I'm going to be late for work.
We'll celebrate
this evening, okay?
Come on.
Are you kiddin' me?
You cannot be serious.

Is it... is it antiques?
I'm sorry, sir.
Um, how about cigarette?
That is not
the correct password.
Look, I, uh,
I just started
working here, so I...
Would you put someone on
who knows the password?
Uh, yeah, I'm the only one
here right now.
Hello?
Hello?
Hello?
Oh, no.
Oh.
Ugh.
Anybody in there?
Hello? Anybody?
This is unit 17.
Maybe we ought to call
P.D. in on this.
Hold on that.
Hi.
You had a smoke detector go off?
Uh, yeah.
Um, it was just a cigarette.
I dropped a cigarette.
It's fine, though.
Anybody else in there?
You're worried about
the password thing, aren't you?
I don't know.
Am I?
See, look, here's the thing.
I just started working here,
and, um, the owner,
he... he... he left
for the weekend,
for the holiday, you know.
And before he left,
he didn't tell me
anything about an alarm
or a password, or anything.
Mind if I come in?
Well, I was... I was...
Was just locking up, actually.
It was just a cigarette
that I dropped,
and there's...
There's no need to.
Sorry.
Standard company policy.
Right.
Yeah, come on in.
You want to get the lights?
Um,
actually, the switch is...
It's broken.
You know, like I said,
I was just locking up,
and I was going to come back
on, um, Tuesday.
Why don't you show me
where the detector is?
Yeah.
It's, uh, it's right back there.
So you sell antiques, huh?
Yeah, obv... obviously.
Yeah, my wife's
into all that stuff.
What's that show,
the one where people
bring all their old crap
out of their attics and stuff?
She watches it all the time.
Never met a garage sale
she didn't like.
Keeps thinking
she's gonna hit it big
one of these days,
find some plate or dish
or something
worth a million bucks.
Got anything in here worth that?
Well, maybe...
Maybe not a million,
but there's a few things.
The smoke detector's
back in here.
It's busted in here, too?
Uh-huh.
Where is it?
It's, uh,
that's... that's where it was,
right up there.
Well, there it is.
Oh, you took it down.
I can, uh, put it back up
for you. Where is it?
No, I, uh,
I threw it away.
I'm probably just going
to go get a new one,
because, uh,
it's been going off
a lot lately.
Well, they never told me that.
I'd better call the office.
They might be having a problem
with your electrical...
No. No, no, don't do that.
I don't have time
to deal with it
right now, so, I just...
You know, I appreciate
you coming out here,
I just, um, come back
after the holiday,
bring your wife,
and I'll give her a good deal
on something here
at the store, huh?
Serious?
Sure.
All right.
What's that?
Holy... did you see that?
Where were you?
Where did you go?
I was looking for you.
So now you want my help?
No.
No, I don't need your help.
You know, that was...
That was pretty brutal,
back there, that thing
with the rent-a-cop.
What, you... you saw that?
Oh, yeah.
You want a drink?
No.
You were just about
to leave, too.
Ugh.
Jackie needs...
You really think that
that's a good idea?
I mean, you got two dead bodies.
I mean, your fingerprints
are everywhere.
Not to mention the money...
The money that tight-ass
conned you out of.
I mean, I bet he's got
at least that much
laying around here somewhere.
No, I need... I need to clean up.
Didn't he say something
about, uh, what was it,
him and his wife
going away on vacation.
He said,
that "if I don't start
packing soon, she'll kill me."
that's ironic.
But it also means
she'll be here any minute.
What exactly are you going to do
with these bodies?
I don't know.
Put them in the basement
or something.
Are you sure about that?
How long do you think
before the wife
notices the smell?
By then, I will be long gone.
I just need to get out of here
so that there's nothing
that links me to this place.
Didn't you call the store
on your cell phone?
Just go, go.
All right.
Hold it, hold it, hold it.
Okay.
All right.
Okay.
All right.
Come on, we got to hurry.
You know, this whole thing
was a hustle.
No, he made me a promise.
You kiddin' me?
That's all B.S.
The two of them
were in on it together
from the get-go.
Yeah, I don't understand that.
Could you please
explain it to me?
Because Hoffman
got you 20 grand,
or should I say the 20 grand
that you scrounged together
between the bank,
your neighbor and the bookie.
And do you really think
that it was just a coincidence
that his phone
was out of service?
Come on. You're not
that stupid, are you?
But how did they know
they were gonna
get away with it?
Because they're con-men,
that's what they do.
They prey on suckers
like you, Chance.
You... you walk into that party
with the stench of desperation.
They could smell it
all over you.
No, because
he offered me $5,000.
Even if you took it,
he'd still pocket 15 grand.
Not bad, if you ask me.
Ooh.
Don't want to leave
these guys laying around.
Ah.
Hey.
Hi, it's me.
Where are you?
I'm still here. I'm just,
you know, finishing up the deal.
It's 7:00.
Yeah.
I know. I just,
uh, everything's
going a little longer
than I thought.
Is everything okay?
Yeah.
Everything's fine,
just like I told you.
Um, did... did you get the money?
Yeah.
Well, that's so exciting.
I know, isn't it great?
Listen, I should...
I should probably go, okay?
Ok, well, I have Monday off,
so I was thinking we could
go away together.
You know, just you and me.
Good.
That's a great idea.
But can we talk about it
when I get home?
Yeah, yeah.
Okay. I can't wait.
Love you.
Okay.
Was that Jackie?
So what are you going
to tell her now?
I don't know.
I'll think of something.
- Ooh.
- Walter?
Honey?
That'd be the wife.
Walter?
You in here?
Hmm.
You need more time.
You need time to find the money.
And you need time
to get out of here.
Walter?
I mean, really,
when you think about it,
there's no way around it.
Where are you?
You're going to have
to get rid of her.
No.
No. This whole thing
wasn't supposed to happen.
It was an accident.
The whole thing was a mistake.
I know.
But now you got to finish
what you started.
Look, Chance.
It's time for you
to take what you deserve.
I will not be your excuse.
It's not an excuse.
What are your other options?
You think you can
go back home empty-handed?
What are you going
to tell your landlord?
Or even better yet,
what are you going
to tell Jackie?
How do you think
she's going to respond
when you come home one more time
telling her that you
screwed it all up?
Huh?
You promised her.
It's got to be tough
always being the nice guy, huh?
You just need to realize
that the reason why
people walk all over you
is just because
they know they can.
Could you please stop?
I know that it must
be hard to hear, okay?
But I'm the only one that cares.
You need to get this done.
Find that money
and get your life
back on the track
that you deserve.
Look, this is
your one opportunity.
And if you don't take it,
that's it, it's over.
You do realize that, don't you?
Well can't I... can't I
just talk to her?
I mean, can't I force her
to tell me where the money is?
I mean, I don't really
have to kill her, do I?
You wouldn't make it two blocks
before she's on the phone
screaming to 9-1-1.
But I don't want
to kill a woman.
For 32 years,
I have been watching your life
spiral out of control.
Opportunity after opportunity
has been handed to you
while you've done nothing
but piss it away.
I'm not like you.
Yeah, I know.
That's the problem.
Walter?
Is that you?
I said no.
Jackie?
Jackie, are you home?
Hey, baby, it's me.
I just ran out to the store.
I'll be back in,
like, half an hour.
We're going to celebrate.
Well, the landlord
said today's it.
We're 3 months behind.
It's different this time.
This is a sure thing.
I don't want
a sure thing, Chance.
I just... I want you.
I want us.
And you will have it.
Today.
I promise.
We'll celebrate this evening.
I promise.
Chance, are you here?
Are you here?
Chance?
Yeah, I'm in the bedroom.
Okay, wait there,
I've got a surprise for you.
Okay.
Nice.
Wow.
45,000.
We should do this again.
Indeed.
All right, you have a good trip.
All right, see you man.
All right, all right.
Ah!
I really came through
for us this time, babe.
Everything's going
to be perfect.
Chance, what...
What?
What have... What have you done?
Oh, no!
Did you see that?
No, no!
No!
No, please don't!
No, please!
Oh, my God!
I'm sorry!
I'm so sorry!
No, don't!
No, not her! No!
Not her! No!
Aah!
Stop!
Shh!
Stop!
Let me see your hands.
Put your hands up.
I said put your hands up.
Beat her to death.
They said he ripped
her head off.
Watch your head.
He seemed like such a nice guy.
You never know.
You just never know
who you're living next to.
Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
