Revenge (2011–2015): Season 1, Episode 3 - Betrayal - full transcript

With unexpected assistance from her new ally, Nolan, Emily makes it her mission to destroy the political and professional life of the district attorney who convicted her father. Victoria very privately grieves the loss of her only true love while plotting to confirm her suspicions about Emily's past. Meanwhile, Daniel exposes a side of himself that Emily finds impossible to resist.

Previously on "revenge"...

Daddy!

When I was a child, my father was
framed for a crime he didn't commit.

You're making a mistake!

Amanda!

Amanda Clarke
no longer exists.

Before he died, he left
a road map for revenge

that led me to the people
who destroyed our lives.

Why are you so interested
in this girl?

Because she's interested
in my son.

Stay away from Charlotte.



What do you think you're doing,
bringing Jack here?

It's nice to see you again.

Dad!

I want you
to start following her.

Something's not right here.

Freeze! Don't move!

FBI!

Let me go!
Show me your hands!

Stop resisting!

Let go!
Hands up!

Check the upstairs!

Amanda Clarke.

How long
did you really think

you could fool me?



You must be as stupid
as your father.

Get on the ground!

Sammy.

What are you doing here?

Hmm?

What's that? What's this?

You're such a good boy.

Oh, good boy.

Good boy.

Ciao, Margaret.
How's Italy?

Weren't you on the landmark
preservation committee

last winter
with Michael Davis?

Yes, just before
he split with Lydia.

Come on.

Do you remember
a lovely young woman

by the name of Emily Thorne?

She paid obscenely
for the Davis cottage next door,

and you know how I can be
about that kind of thing.

Mm-hmm.

No, I don't want
to keep you. You run.

All right, darling. Bye.

* The ancient streets
so crowded *

I made you breakfast.

* And narrow *

No. Uh, I'm not hungry.

* Up, up, high *

You gotta eat, Declan.

* The air tonight *

Did you get any sleep?

Barely. Uh...

You know, every time
I drifted off...

Dad was there.

And I'd get up

to tell you the good news.

*

I stayed up till dawn...

Looking over dad's will.

The stowaway's
all ours now.

And he didn't want a funeral.

He just wanted us
to scatter his ashes at sea.

You know the last thing
dad heard

was me calling him a loser?

We both had a lot of fights
with dad.

He knows you didn't mean it.

Yeah, I did mean it.

* Out there... *

Scatter him without me.

* Halo of the skyline *

* my guardian angel *

* looks down upon me *

* Fall tonight *

* sweet Paris rain *

Morning.

Hey.

I found this old-timer
at my door last night.

Oh, wow.

I didn't even realize
he was gone.

I'm a little distracted.

My dad just passed away

from a heart attack.

Oh, my God.

Yeah.

That's awful.

Is this him?

I lost my dad suddenly, too.

I'm so sorry.

I appreciate it.

Let me, uh, let me
make you some breakfast.

Oh.
It's the least I can do.

No, I-I would...
I would love to, um...

But I have this thing that
I have to go do, so...

Maybe next time.

Yeah.

Take care of yourself.

Yeah.

You, too.

Okay.

* somebody needs to tell me *

* what I'm supposed to do *

* Say that I'm not supposed *

* to be in love with you *

What the hell
are you doing here?

Risking death to prove
I'm still into you

and reminding you,
you should still be into me.

You are so full of yourself.

Come on. I could've broken
my neck climbing up here.

The least you could do
is put on a bikini

and come watch me
play volleyball.

Get down.

Charlotte,
it's 11:00.

Yeah, mom.
Happens twice a day.

Well, my meeting's starting
right now,

and it'd be nice
if you would put on

one of the dresses I bought you
and made an appearance.

Sorry.
I already made plans.

Outgrow this, please,
I beg of you.

Oh, and you might want
to let Adam know

that the drainpipe
he scurried up

is in full view
of the conservatory.

* And I'm the only one *

Good morning, Adam.

Believed in you *

Morning, Mrs. Grayson.

And in keeping
with your husband's image,

we're planning a sort of
upscale barbecue.

A-are you sure the courtyard

can hold a hundred guests
plus media?

I mean, the senator
loves his media.

Mm. I know how much
he covets the spotlight,

but I promise you, there's
enough room for everyone.

And if Victoria says
"don't worry,"

you can take that
to the bank. Mm.

Speak of the devil.
Senator Kingsly.

Thank you.

How was the golf game?

Daniel spanked
us old-timers.

Ah, lucky round.

Steve, are we done here?
'Cause I'd like

to get back to the hotel
for a shower.

You should stay here.

Oh, no. We'd...
we'd hate to impose.

Nonsense. That's why
we built this home.

Isn't that right,
Victoria?

Well, all right, then.
Perfect.

All right.

All right. I'll send
for your bags. And here.

I took another pass
at your candidacy speech.

Thanks, Steve.

Mrs. Grayson,
I'm so sorry I'm late.

Hey.
Hi.

I know you were counting
on some of my ideas.

Well, we've already
just wrapped, Ms. Thorne.

We managed to get it
under control without you.

Emily Thorne.

It's nice to see you again,
senator Kingsly.

What a small world.

Conrad, Victoria, why didn't you
tell me you knew Emily?

Well, we've only just met.

How do you two
know each other?

Ms. Thorne was
a senior volunteer

in my first campaign.

And what was the name
of the organization

you believe David Clarke
was laundering money for?

The same Americon initiative
that claimed responsibility

for blowing up flight 197
last summer?

Did you come here to help me
finish what I started?

Well, I'm a big believer
in finishing what you start.

Then you have to stay
for dinner.

Well, it's summer
in the Hamptons.

I can't believe the young lady
doesn't already have plans.

Actually, she does.

With me.

Well, there you have it.

Excuse me.

Moments ago,

a jury found
terrorist conspirator

David Clarke
guilty on all counts.

The case,

spearheaded by
federal prosecutor Tom Kingsly,

was a big win for both
the United States

and the young attorney.

Rumors are circulating

that a political career is
in the not-too-distant future

for Kingsly.

Well, well, well.

If it isn't the Thorne
in everyone's side.

To what do I owe the pleasure?

Is it possible to hack
a computer tablet

to run
a powerpoint presentation?

Possible for you
or possible for me?

Can you do it or not?

With both hands
tied behind my back

if you tell me why.

You don't need to know why.

Fine.

Get me the tablet's
IP address

and I'll make it so you can run
whatever program you want.

I already sent it.
Check your in-box.

You're welcome, Mary Sunshine.

Today I am just grateful

that justice prevailed

and that this terrible man
has been held accountable

for his crimes
against the American people.

As for the future,
I have always planned

to serve my country

however and wherever
it needs me most.

Do you like
the necklace?

What woman wouldn't?

I'm just curious
as to why

you're angrier today
than you were yesterday.

Because yesterday,
I didn't have a house

full of unwanted guests.

Wear the teal.

Fine. You don't like
Tom's politics.

Oh, I couldn't care less
about his politics.

It's him I don't like.

Well, he's done more for us
than we'll ever

be able to do for him.

How could I ever forget?

Come on.

This will all be over
before you know it,

and then...

We can go to Paris
for a few days, you know?

Whatever you like.

I want to make this right.

Then you never should've slept
with my best friend.

Just a second.

Hi.

Hey.
Oh, you look lovely.

Thank you.
You're punctual.

Is that a bad thing?

No, not at all.
I'll just grab my stuff.

All set.

Well, aren't you
full of surprises?

What can I say?
I live alone.

We should
go shooting sometime.

We definitely should.

Shall we?

We shall.

My dad always said

that an empty bar
is a sad bar.

He'd be happy to see
you all here today.

He might not
have wanted a funeral,

but he didn't say anything
about a wake,

so, everybody, drink up.

To Carl Porter.

To Carl Porter.

And, uh, in honor of
Jack and Declan's father,

next round's on me.

You didn't have to do that.
You didn't even know my dad.

No, but...

Obviously, he's
a... he's a good guy...

all these people
drinking here to honor him.

When my dad bites it, people
will be drinking to celebrate.

What can I get for you,
man?

Uh, you know to make
a Malibu Bay Breeze?

I do.

I would strongly advise
against it.

It's more of a whiskey
and beer crowd.

Well...

When in Rome...

*

Ah, hey, sporty.

Whose fist
did you walk into?

Oh, some rich jerkwad.

There's a lot of 'em around
this time of year.

You, uh, planning on
getting even?

Considering
I'm half the guy's size

with half the friends,

no.

Violence is only one way
to take someone down.

That's what I've been saying.

The family values crowd
would eat that up.

Well, then here's to
family values.

And the passage
of the Kingsly finance bill.

When I'm reelected,

it's my first order
of business.

All this talk of politics.

Believe me,
I'm used to it.

What a lovely necklace,
Victoria.

Thank you.

Excuse me.

I'm expecting an e-mail
from the majority leader.

It'll just...

I'm sorry.

Steve, please come with me.

Excuse me.

Oh, man.
You've gotta be kidding me.

Find out
where this came from.

Now.

Everything all right,
senator?

* was looking for
his mother *

Welcome to Tuscany.

Thank you.

What is this place?
Looks interesting.

It's an Italian steak house.
Ashley turned me on to it.

Red leather booths
and everything.

Too old-school?
Not at all.

Just...
Would've guessed you

more Sushi bar
than steak house.

The bloodier the better.

Could you excuse me
for a second?

Yeah.

Excuse me.

Hi. Um, I'm at that table
over there in the middle,

and I don't have
a steak knife.

I'm sorry.
I'll bring you one.

Okay. Thanks.

Hey, can we get a bottle
of sparkling water, please?

What the hell
are you doing here?

Patrick, I-I had no idea...

I'm...

Whoa. Wait here. Patrick.

Patrick, stop.

Stop! Patrick!

Patrick.

Look, I know how pissed
you are, okay?

And you have every right
to be.

But you have no idea

how sorry I am about
everything that happened.

You happened, Grayson.

And if you were man enough

to take responsibility
for what you did,

you wouldn't be apologizing
to me.

You'd be apologizing
to my sister.

It's a video of you
walking into a building.

What's the big deal?

You've got another one.

I gather that's not
your niece.

What on earth
is going on here?

Oh, more politics,
I'm afraid.

Ah. Trouble with
the majority leader?

I didn't want
to bore you with this.

David Clarke is innocent,
and I can prove it.

Tell the judge and have him
call back the jury.

They're already
in deliberations.

And now you're telling me,
you committed perjury?

Don't believe her.
She's in love with him.

What the hell
is going on here?

What's going on here is,
you've just argued

an airtight case against
the most hated man in America

and when the jury convicts him,

you're gonna be
an instant national hero.

Your political future, Tom,
is wide open,

and you have
a powerful supporter in me.

Now if you decide
to listen to my wife,

who's foolishly fallen
in love with that monster,

you're gonna throw
all that away.

It's your call.

What's the crisis?

There is no crisis.

Just a little situation.

Frank.

Victoria.

You and Diane go ahead
and finish dinner without us.

It might
take a little while.

Rest assured, we're gonna
take care of it.

Don't you always?

Thanks.

I'm... I'm sorry
you had to see that.

But in a way, I'm also
glad it happened.

You have a right to know
what you're getting into.

Well, what am I
getting into?

I mean, who was that guy?

Patrick Munello.

I dated his sister
last summer.

Her name's Sara.

So you break
the sister's heart,

and then big brother
breaks your car?

Actually, I broke her spine.

Oh, my God.

She wasn't paralyzed,
thank God, but, you know,

it's still a struggle
for her.

How did that happen?

My mom, as you know,
has a lot of expectations.

Her son dating
a cocktail waitress

from Portsmouth

not one of them.

So towards the end
of the summer,

my mom
made her feelings public

at one of her parties.

And I took off with Sara,
drunk.

Wrapped my car
around a utility pole,

and... they had to
cut us both out.

So where is she now?

Still in rehab
last I heard.

I haven't spoken to her
since that night.

My parents covered
Sara's medical bills

and set her up
so she wouldn't have to worry,

paid a judge off
to keep me out of jail,

and in return, I had to swear
I'd never see her again.

It sounds like
you regret that now.

Every day.

Do you think
I'm a bad person?

I think...

People who make mistakes
should own up to them.

You should go talk to her.

Tell her what you're
telling me now.

When did the affair end?

February,
but on good terms.

I don't believe
she'd be behind this.

Then it can be managed.

If it comes out,
you both deny it.

Candidates survive
this sort of thing all the time.

You're not telling us
the whole story.

Shortly before
we decided to move on,

Erin got pregnant.

We talked about it, and she
decided not to have the baby.

I sent her the money
to take care of it.

You know the senator's
politics on the issue.

If it gets out,
he's done.

More importantly, my wife
would be devastated.

Well, then we have to make it
so that it doesn't get out.

*

Every bait and tackle shop

needs a web site, brother.

Uh, hey, uh, Jack, could...

could we get another round
over here?

I'm uploading this gentleman
into the 21st century.

The only thing I'm uploading
is you into a cab.

No, that's okay.
You know what?

I'll throw my bike in the trunk
and I can drive him home.

All right.

Thanks, friend.

Yeah.

This is a cool place.

Be it ever so humble...

What do I owe you for this
random act of kindness?

And I never carry cash,
by the way.

Man, I don't want
your money.

Um...

Maybe you could tell me
what you meant earlier.

You know, about, uh...

Ways to get even.

An emerging specialty
of mine.

Allow me.

Mm. What's the guy's name
who trashed your face?

Adam something.

He's a friend
of Charlotte Grayson's.

Watch and learn,
grasshopper.

Adam Connor?

Yeah.

I just accessed
his webcam, and...

Now you're free to record
his most...

intimate moments,

and use them as you will.

Charlotte Grayson.

And it seems
we have struck gold

our first time out.

Yeah, um, she had nothing
to do with it, right?

Whatever you say.

Can I borrow that?

Keep it.

It's yours.

Thanks.

"The night after Kingsly

"presented his
closing arguments,

Victoria managed to get
a note to me."

"My dear David,

"I am so horrified
by what's happened to you,

"and I know
how betrayed you feel.

"I can't tell you everything
in a letter,

"but I'm going to Kingsly
in the morning

"with evidence
that will exonerate you.

"By this time tomorrow,

"the judge will have
declared a mistrial,

"and this nightmare will be
behind you,

"behind both of us.

Forgive me."

"Whatever
Victoria said to Kingsly,

"it didn't change his mind.

"After only one day
of deliberations,

"the jury convicted me
on all counts.

"With friends
like the Graysons,

Kingsly will probably
wind up president someday."

No, no, no, no, no.

The large arrangements go
on the bar,

and the smaller ones
go on the table.

Has anyone seen
the AV guy?

Is everything
under control?

Absolutely.

Good. I want to check
the seating arrangements.

Hmm.

Did I make a mistake?

Oh, no, no. I'm just
always changing my mind.

Okay.

Thank you.
You're welcome.

Please tell me
you're the AV guy.

I wish I could.

Tyler Barrol,

Daniel's roommate
at Harvard.

Now I see why he comes home
for the summer.

Tyler.

Well, it's finally nice to put
a face to the name.

You must be Charlotte.

Oh.

You're cute.

Daniel didn't mention
that you were coming.

Oh, total impulse. I hope it's
not too much of an intrusion.

Well, he took off
early this morning,

God knows where,

but you're perfectly welcome

to make yourself at home
at the pool house if you wish.

Thank you, Mrs. Grayson.

Would you be a dear,
and show him the way?

Of course.

I'm sorry, but I didn't
catch your name.

I didn't give it to you.

Mm.

The pool house is that way,
next to the pool.

* And someday she might *

* wave him good-bye *

* from a twist
in the faraway sky *

Hey.

Hey.

Just, uh, yeah, just
leave those right there.

Your tips from last night
are in that envelope.

Nolan was extra generous.

Yeah, tell me about it.
He gave me, uh...

He gave me a laptop
for driving him home.

He's big
into buying friends.

He's got the money.
He might as well use it.

Hey, listen, I was, um,

I was thinking of
closing up early and...

I'm gonna go
pick up dad's ashes.

You should come with me.

No, no.
I already told you, no.

Look...

I don't get it, man.

Dad broke his back for
both of us his entire life,

and he loved you,
Declan.

You already made one mistake
you're gonna regret

for the rest of your life.

Do you have to make it two?
You know what?

Just 'cause he's dead
doesn't make you my father.

You have a minute?

I do.

Aren't you busy cleaning up
after the senator?

Daniel went to see Sara
at the rehab center today.

He knows he's forbidden.

Why I thought
you might like to know.

Strange thing...

Is that Emily drove him.

What is this girl up to?

You really don't trust her,
do you?

Trust is the one luxury
I cannot afford.

I think she's the reason
that Michael left Lydia.

And I intend to prove it
tonight at the fund-raiser.

How?

By putting Emily
next to him.

One look
at the two of them together,

and I'll know.

Clearly, someone has to
step in

before my son makes
another mistake.

Is it done?

This is some of my
best work, if I do say so.

Uploading the program to
the good senator's tablet...

Now.

The second he opens
that God-awful speech,

the program will initiate.

You better be right.

I thought you were
in Italy for the summer.

I was, but my parents were
all over me about my resume.

I gotta get serious
about an internship.

Well, in the meantime,
you're welcome

to crash here for a bit.

You sure your parents
won't mind?

His parents
won't mind at all.

But it's nice of you
to ask.

Thanks, Mrs. Grayson.

Daniel, a word?

Uh, I'll go see

if your party planner
needs a hand.

Her name's Ashley,
in case you were wondering.

You broke our agreement.

You went to see
that girl Sara.

How do you know that?

Well, at least
you're not denying it.

I went to apologize, mom.

Something I should've done
a long time ago.

And for what it's worth,
she wasn't exactly forgiving,

so... at least now
I can move on.

With Emily Thorne?

You got a problem
with her, too?

At least you know
she's not a gold digger.

The only thing
we know for sure

is that you're a bad judge
of women.

I'm asking you
to take it slow

till we know more
about her.

No one's ever gonna be
good enough for you, are they?

Nonsense. I want you
to be happy.

Oh, like you and dad?

It's for your own protection.

*

*

Daniel tells me you're
at the top of the class.

You play golf?

Uh, yeah, well, I've been
giving it my all, sir.

I can certainly put you in touch
with a good pro. Emily.

You look stunning.

Thank you, Mr. Grayson.

Hello, Emily.

Mrs. Grayson. Have either
of you seen Daniel?

Oh, I'm sure
he's around somewhere.

Have you met his roommate
from Harvard?

Tyler.

Nice to meet you.
Pleasure.

That's a beautiful dress,
Charlotte.

It's total Kate Middleton.

Oh, what could be wrong
with that?

Excuse me.

* and in the background,
baby *

What are you
doing here, Nolan?

Evening, kitten.

As you know,
I'm a big contributor

to the good senator's
campaign.

I just thought
I'd show up and...

See what I'm contributing to.

Ahh.

The fun police.

*

Is he bothering you
again?

Like a swarm of gnats.

So what'd you think
of Daniel's friend Tyler?

I think you're
clearly interested.

Why should you get to have
all the fun?

Hey. Could we take a walk?

Yeah.
Is everything okay?

Yeah.
I'll see you in a bit.

Hello again...

Ashley.

Hello.

*

Where are you?

I'm dying over here.

I'm not big on politics.

Adam, these are
the sacrifices you make

when you're trying
to win someone back.

Call me as soon
as it's over.

*

Mmm.

Ohh.

So what's up?

You didn't happen to mention
to anyone about Sara?

No, not at all. Why?

I swear, my mom's
having me followed.

What? That is...
that's so creepy.

Listen, I'm sorry
if I overstepped or...

no, no, no.
I'm glad that you did.

It was the right thing
to do.

You know, seeing Sara again
made me realize that

I have to start taking
control of my life again,

standing up to my parents.

Well, in that case,
I'm glad I could help.

Look...

No matter what happens
between us,

or what my mother
says or does,

and if me and you last
a week, a year, ten years,

forever...

I'll always be honest
with you.

Next to Candace and Bob,
over there.

Okay.
Have a wonderful time.

Michael.

Oh.

Oh. Well,
how fit you look.

Thanks. I, uh, finally
got back to the gym.

Victoria, I was surprised
to get your call.

I figured
Lydia had successfully

poisoned the well
with you.

Our divorce has really
brought out the worst in her.

Well, it's brought out
the worst in both our spouses,

I'm afraid, but...

It's water under the bridge,
right?

Right.
Mm-hmm.

Lydia isn't here,
is she?

Heavens no.

Okay.

But there are
a good number of people

that I know are going to be
thrilled to see you.

As a matter of fact,
I've seated you next to someone

I believe you know very well.

Michael...

You remember Emily?

You do look familiar?

Wait.

You were on the landmark
preservation committee together.

That's right. Of course.
It's good to see you.

And Emily bought
your beach house.

Yes, I did.

Emily Thorne.
Right, of course.

There you are.

Hey. I got lost coming
back from the bathroom.

Cameron, hi.

Emily. Wow.

It's been ages.

I'm sorry.
We haven't been introduced.

Oh, I'm sorry.
Victoria, Cameron Lang.

She's, uh... my plus one.

Cameron also worked on
the preservation committee.

Technically, Emily was the one
who introduced us.

Did she now?

I'd like to introduce you
to a man

I've been proud to call
my friend

for the past 15 years.

He's a man who represents

everything this country
should be...

honorable, passionate,

and conservative.

Please welcome
senator Tom Kingsly.

Thank you, Conrad.

And thank you, Victoria,

for hosting this
auspicious event at your home.

What's going on?

I don't know.

Oh, my God.

I, uh...

I came here tonight
to announce

that I will not be seeking
reelection this fall...

As I am retiring
from public life.

I'll see to it your
contributions are returned.

I'm very sorry.

She claims that you
invited her, senator.

That's a lie.

Where is she?

With security.

She said you've been
texting and e-mailing her

for the past month,

wiring money
to take care of the baby,

even told her
you'd leave your wife.

Then she said you sent her
a red dress and a plane ticket

to be here tonight.

That doesn't make any sense.

What does she stand to gain
by forcing my resignation?

Your opponent
could've paid her.

Or a jealous staffer with
access to your correspondence

could've set
the whole thing up.

What? That's insane.

Tom, I have dedicated
my entire career to you.

Tom. What's going on?

Oh, you have no idea how much
work I put into this event.

I'm so sorry.

But it was a really great
party, considering.

Speaking of parties...

Believe me, I would like
to hammer all of those,

but I have a major mess
to clean up.

Rain check?

Count on it.

*

What about
you two lovebirds?

Oh, no. Don't tell me
you're gonna bail on me, too.

You know
I don't drink anymore.

Oh, come on.

I mean, after tonight,
you can make an exception.

I-I don't think so.

But look on the bright side...
you can party all summer,

and I'll be
your designated driver.

Yeah? Well, then let's
get started. Where to?

Actually, I'm exhausted,
but you guys go.

Have fun.

You sure?

Mm-hmm.
Okay.

See you soon.

Night.

Let's talk.

Drive safely now.

Well, I'm stunned.

You never can tell
with people, can you?

Indeed.

Good night, Emily.

Good night, Mrs. Grayson.

Actually...

Would you mind terribly

if I started
calling you Victoria?

Of course.

Then good night,
Victoria.

Go away, Nolan.

I have to know.
How did you do it?

How'd you get your hands
on a sex tape?

I bought the building
that his mistress lives in.

As part of the renovations,
I had cameras installed.

Uh... wow.

That's commitment.

Uh, and now?

I release the videos
to the press.

Why?

You already got
what you wanted.

You destroyed a man's career.

I want to destroy
his life.

If he had done
the right thing,

he would've saved my father.

He chose not to

so down he goes.

Along with his family.

You scare me.

Good.

Hey.

Uh, check out that sunset.

Only thing missing
is you.

Call me sometime.

Okay. Uh...

Ciao.

Again?

I'm so sorry.

Maybe he's trying
to tell me something.

Maybe he's...
Worried about you

after what happened
to your father.

Maybe, yeah.

I wish you could've met him.

It's his final request.

Where's your brother?

Didn't show.

I'm on my own.

Well, not entirely.

Yeah.

The "Amanda"?

Yeah.
Sammy named her.

Thanks for bringing him
back to me...

Again.

Sammy.

Come on. Come on.

For the innocent,

the past may hold a reward.

But for the treacherous...

It's only a matter of time
before the past delivers

what they truly deserve.

The Kingslys have decided

to avoid the spotlight
for the time being.

That's probably best.

You should know that
I located the IP address

all those e-mails came from.

Unfortunately,
it's a little late.

The damage has
already been done.

They came from right here.

My laptop?

Well, I sure as hell
didn't do it.

Not you.

Someone with real motive

and access.

Mm.

I got you something.

I love them.

Hey.

Hey.

You promise me,
when you wear them,

that you think of me.

Let me see.

God, you're so beautiful.
