Revenge (2011–2015): Season 2, Episode 13 - Union - full transcript

Previously on "revenge"...

(helen) if you attempt
to alert daniel

To our resurgent relationship,

Your son will be removed

Permanently.

There is $50,000
for your signature

And a swift departure.

(nate) my father...
he almost had the waterfront

In the palm of his hand.

All we need is the stowaway,

And we can regain that foothold
that he once had.



Ashley, could you please
close the door?

You can't do

Anything against the ryans.

They will hurt you.

Padma referred to carrion
as a program.

I never told her that.

(helen) remember
what's at stake for you

If you don't find
the carrion program.

(beep)
aiden, what happened?

(man) it's done.

They made it look like
an overdose.

If there's a chance
that my sister's alive,

Then I'm gonna find her.

And if she is dead,
then this is on you.



Aiden. Aiden!

I, amanda clarke,
take you, jack porter,

To be my husband...

In the presence
of our best man sammy.

(david) amanda?

Wow.
What is going on here?

It looks like you're
preparing one fancy event.
(chuckles)

What are these
pipe cleaners?

They're wedding rings,
silly.

Oh. (laughs)
(laughs)

These are very nice rings.

So who is the lucky guy?
(whimpering)

Ah, jack.

Hey, mr. Clarke.

Well, uh, I think
you're just in time.

For what?

(emily) in it's purest form,

A union becomes part of
our very essence.

But when that bond is broken...

Our essence
is forever changed.

(rhythmic knock on door)

Officiant certificate...
check.

Bridal bouquet...ordered.
Wedding cake...on hold.

(inhales deeply) who knew
"officiant" was french

For "wedding bitch"?

Hey.

You okay?

(sighs) any news
on aiden's whereabouts?

Well, not since la la land.

Seems he's taken a page
from your manual

On how to disappear
without a trace.

You don't think

He'd go after the initiative
on his own?

They just murdered
his sister.

At this point,
I don't know what he'll do.

Anything on padma?

Oh, no communication
there yet either,

But believe me,

I've got eyes and ears
all over that one.

If they make contact,
I'll know.

Whatever you do,
you cannot let padma know

That you're on to her.

I won't.

Look, I know this isn't
exactly the...

Happy ending you envisioned
for you and jack...

(inhales deeply)

(exhales) all that matters
is that he's happy.

Ems...

There's no shame in admitting

That your feelings
about this marriage are...

Complicated at the least.

I meant what I said.

I'm happy that things
are going jack's way.

He deserves it.

And...

Amanda does, too.

I don't know if I'd call
conrad grayson

Commandeering
half of the stowaway

"things going great
for jack."

What are you talking about?

Amanda didn't tell you?

Tell her what?

Uh-oh.
Uh... (chuckles)

Methinks I'll let
you two work this out

Sans moi.

See you at the altar,
mandy.

(amanda) what?

A casino right here.

Condos with a bay view
right over there.

It's atlantic city
but in half the time.

Yeah, and what about
the marshland to the east?

I'm hearing we may have a fight
on our hands with rezoning.

Once you announce
your gubernatorial plans,

Those on the city council
will be eager

To earn favor with
new york's next governor.

And for the ones
who do cause problems,

There are ways
to handle them, too.

It might be best if you left
the negotiations to us.

Hey, don't talk to me

Like I'm some kind
of schoolkid, sweetheart.

I brought you this opportunity.
I am not getting pushed out.

We're fully aware
of your contribution thus far

And in no way seek to minimize
your role in the project.

A rising tide
lifts all boats.

Why wouldn't you ask me
for help?

Jack insisted we keep it
inside the family.

I had to honor that.

And so you went
to conrad?

Amanda, whatever you need jack
to believe about you,

Charlotte is not your sister

The graysons were
and always will be the enemy.

(sighs)

Take this to the bank
and get a cashier's check

For whatever amount
you owe him,

Plus interest,
for his trouble.

Jack won't take
your money.

Make him.

Amanda, trust me. The graysons
always have a hidden agenda.

(huffs)

Thank you.

(declan) oh, my god.
You actually shaved.

(carl crying)

I figured,
if I was ever gonna...

Uh-oh. Feeding time.

I'll do it.
You got the diaper.

(crying continues)

Okay. His, uh, his bottles
are in the fridge.

I'll warm it up.

(crying continues)

#

You guys really got this
whole parenting thing down.

Oh, that compliment
sounds like

It's got a favor
attached to it.

Guilty as charged.

I, um... (clears throat)

#

I was hoping
you and charlotte

Could look after carl
for a few days.

Yeah, man.
We got you covered.

Does this mean you're actually
gonna do something fun?

(laughs) I know.

It's been... Pretty heavy
around here lately.

But... I feel like
ever since

We got out from under
the ryans,

I'm just...
I-I can breathe again.

And I want to do
something nice for her.

(exhales)

You're up later
than usual.

Daniel, must we continue

With this endless display
of animosity?

I don't know how much longer
I can weather this.

Emily came clean about
how you manipulated her

Into spying on me.
It's pathetic.

The fact that she agreed
to my proposition

Should call her own motives
into question.

Oh, say what
you want about emily,

But at least
she had the courage

To tell me the truth,

Which is more than I can say
about you.

(telephone ringing in distance)
lock the door behind you.

(panting)

(lock turns, keys jangle)

Aiden.

Where the hell
have you been?

Emily's been worried sick.

I know you helped intercept

The video
of my sister's death.

Yes.

And I couldn't be
more sorry.

Call it up.

Run the video.

(beep)

What can you tell me
about this file

Well, what are we looking for?
Anything.

All right.

Anything. Anything that
leads me to who filmed it.

Well, this is the file's
structural metadata.

Embedded in its intel,
bit rate, format...

(clicks keyboard keys)

Date of creation.

(whispers) six years ago.

Six years ago?

Crowley led me to believe
this was...

This was filmed
three days ago.

She lied.
That's what they do.

See, there was nothing
you or emily could've done

To prevent this.

It had already happened.

And emily is no more to blame
in this than you are.

Is there any way to determine
where it was filmed?

All right. Uh...

Yeah, there. See that?
An electric meter. So what?

Each one is embedded
with a serial number

Unique to its location.

(keys clicking)
if I can just enhance
the image enough

And you have...you have
the enhancement program?

We can hack the power company's
records, find...

Yes. Yes, yes, yes.
Then run
the enhancement program.

Look, why don't we
call emily...
No.

Tell her you have a lead...
no. No, I don't...
I don't want emily involved.

Aiden...
just run the program!

(keys clicking)

I tracked the electrical meter
from the video

To a condemned
apartment building

In jersey city.

Did he say what he was
expecting to find?

I don't even think
he knows.

To get clues as to
who killed her, I guess.

Or irrefutable proof
that she's actually dead.

The initiative has him
second-guessing everything.

Aiden's not the only one.

What did the initiative want
with a teenage girl?

Their father
was the real target.

Aiden's dad was
a baggage handler at heathrow.

He loaded the bomb
on to flight 197.

Colleen was never
heard from again.

Do you think
there's a possibility

That the initiative is doing
the same thing to padma?

Maybe they got
to her family, too.

I don't know,
but right now

All I care about
is finding aiden.

In the meantime,
I need you to hack into

The jersey city
police system.

Cross-check all jane does
from six years ago

With colleen's description.

(daniel) helen, I need to go
on record here.

Switching funds
out of the european markets

We're comfortable
with the short-term losses.

Daniel, our final plans
are much grander in scope.

Algiers, bahrain, tunisia...

These are
all highly volatile regions

With unregulated
banking systems.

Which is precisely why

We are investing
in their infrastructure.

These emerging governments

Need the financial backing
of western companies

To facilitate reform.

Fine. I'll execute
the purchase orders

Once I'm at the office.

(beep)

(door closes)

(david)
they set me up, victoria.

Angola, libya...I wouldn't
even know who to contact there.

Someone made it look like
I moved money

For the people
that blew up the plane.

But I swear to you,
I didn't do this.

David, the evidence tells
a completely different story,

And even if
what you're saying is true,

I wouldn't know how to begin
to help you.

I know. I know.

And I shouldn't be
putting you in this position.

It's just...

I really have no one else
to turn to.

The whole world is...
Against me.

Victoria, are you there?

(voice breaking)
I'm sorry, david.

There's nothing
I can do for you.

Please don't call me again.

(thunderclap)

(breath quavering)

#

Hi.

Hey.

Mm.

#

What's this?

It's a little spot
I found in nantucket.

I was thinking we could
take the boat,

Sail it out,
stay a couple nights...

Alone.

Still got
one working credit card.

It's time we start enjoying
our lives a little more.

I already got dec on board
to take care of carl.

What do you say?

How about "I love you"?

And, um...

I've got a gift
of my own.

#

Why do you have a check
from emily?

And why are there
so many zeroes?

She wants us to convert it
to a cashier's check

And buy back the bar
from conrad.

I thought we agreed to keep
the grayson deal between us.

I know.

But she found out.
You know emily.

I don't want to be in debt
to any of my friends.

You'd rather be in debt
to your enemies?

(sighs)

I get it, jack.
You're proud.

You want to solve
your own problems,

And look...

I'm partially responsible
for us being here.

But we have to keep in mind
what they're capable of.

Do I have to remind you
what happened last time?

I almost lost you.

So why not let emily
help us get rid of them...

Forever?

#

(door rattles)

Conrad, a word.

Victoria, do you mind?

We're actually in the middle
of things...

And fully clothed.
How refreshing.

Perhaps it'd be best
if you gave us

A moment of privacy.
(chuckles)

I need a copy
of every transaction

You ever made on behalf of
the initiative in the '90s,

The same ones
that the government used

To convict david clarke.

You know,
if I remember correctly,

You long ago requested
to remain ignorant

Of all those
tedious little details.

Would you care to explain
the about-face?

I overheard
a phone conversation

Between daniel
and helen crowley.

And I think it...
you think it's begun.

Yes.

And if he follows
their orders...

He'll be culpable...

Of whatever catastrophe
they're about to unleash.

Now unfortunately, my son
no longer listens to me,

Let alone trusts
a word I have to say.

But faced with hard evidence,
perhaps he can be convinced.

Now do you have
the documents or not?

(door creaks)

Aiden?

If you're here
to talk me out of this,

I'm not interested.

I'm not.

How can I talk you
out of anything

If I don't know
what you're thinking?

If that video was made
six years ago,

And not three days
like helen said,

Then maybe it was
never even real at all.

Maybe they staged
the whole damn thing.

I want to believe it, too,
aiden.

But you don't.

I didn't come here to fight.

I came here to help.

Then help me.

The video was made
right here.

This is the closest I've been
to her since she was taken.

I was 12.

I never saw her again.

(cell phone rings)

(ring)

It's nolan.
(ring)

He's been looking into
coroner reports...
(ring)

From 2007.

(ring)

Hey.

Ems, I've got some bad news.

(woman) mr. Grayson.
(conrad) yes.

There's a jack porter
here to see you.

Jack,
what a pleasant surprise.

There's, uh, some extra
in there for you

For your trouble.

I'm no tycoon,

But I figure it's not bad
for one week's investment.

I appreciate the offer,
but, um,

I can't accept this.

I don't understand.

We... We agreed that
once I paid off the loan,

I'd get back full ownership
of the bar.

That was the deal,
right?

The deal's changed, jack.

(sighs)

Have a look.

What the hell is all this?

These plans represent
a revitalized vision

Of the waterfront property.

I don't know about you,
but I think the community

Has far outgrown
its antiquated,

Albeit charming,
blue-collar mystique.

I think you're forgetting
that I still own half my bar,

And I'm not selling if that's
what you expect me to do.

Jack, I'm afraid

You don't fully grasp
your current inexorable station,

So allow me
to educate you.

As we speak,
the bank is reassessing

Your financial viability
as a mortgage holder,

And I think we both know
that you fail to meet

Even the most lenient
threshold

Now this assessment is going
to trigger an assumption clause,

Allowing me to absorb your debt
and own the bar outright.

Let me educate you
about a few things.

You either accept
my very generous offer...

Or I will fight you
every step of the way.

I will drag you
through court.

I will get every quaint
blue-collar buddy of mine

To block every bulldozer
you throw at that waterfront.

And I swear to god...

I will make you wish you never
heard the word "montauk."

As I suspected,
you are a man of principle.

And I look forward
to demonstrating

What a man of means
is truly capable of.

Good-bye, jack.

(indistinct conversations)

They're pulling
the coroner's files

From archives.

It'll take a few minutes.

(cell phone rings)

(ring)

(sighs)

(ring)

Is it daniel?

Aiden, he doesn't matter
right now.

He matters more than ever.

He's our link to the initiative.
Take the call.

(ring, beep)

Daniel, hi.

I was starting to think
you were avoiding my calls.

(beeps)
um, no, no.

It's just been
one of those days, you know?

Anything I can do to help?

No. Um...

My accountant
from my foundation

Had me tied up all day,
that's all.

Got it. I won't keep you.

It's just that we haven't talked
since the other night.

And I...

Hope I didn't give
the impression

I was angry with you.

The truth is,
I appreciated your honesty.

Not everyone would be
so understanding.

Well, learning
how to forgive and forget

Is practically
a survival technique

In my family.

I'll...I'll let you get back
to your charity.

I'll see you
back in the hamptons.

Yeah.

Bye, daniel.

(beep)

(exhales)

(jack) grayson doesn't
just want the stowaway, dec.

He wants
the whole damn seaboard.

Well, who cares
what he wants?

We still own half the bar,
right?

We're gonna fight him.
We'll lose.

He's got an army of lawyers
and...and political friends.

(scoffs) I'm telling you,

I don't even think
it's worth the fight.

Did you tell amanda
about this yet?

No.

And neither will you.

The one thing I can stop
the graysons from doing

Is ruining our wedding.

After everything amanda's
been through in her life,

She deserves to be happy,

Even if it's just
for this one day.

#

Here you go, ms. Thorne.

(indistinct conversations)

That's her.

That's my sister.

You were right.

(telephone ringing in distance)
you wanted to see me?

You mind closing the doors?

(ring)

Padma, I know you must think
that I've been avoiding you.

You're not wrong.

I'm not an idiot.

I don't think
you're an idiot at all.

I think you are...

Something else entirely.

People have been

Lining up to use me

Since I made the cover
of "wired" at 22, so...

I'm not interested
in your money, nolan.

No, no, no.

I think you are after
something else

Far more valuable

And dangerous.

Now... (clears throat)

I know the what.

I just can't figure out

(whispers) the why.

So...

How's your father doing
these days?

What?

Well, I ran a diagnostic

Of all
your nolcorp communications,

And up until a month ago,

You two
were talking every day.

Then suddenly nothing.

What happened?

You've been spying on me?

Hey, careful who you're
calling black, little kettle.

I am taking a huge risk
right now,

Going against
the better judgment

Of someone I trust
a lot more than you,

Because my feelings
for you...

Defy logic.

And I'm gonna ask you
one last time...

What happened
to your father?

I'm telling you...

Everything's fine.

Emily?

Are you here?

(beep)

You're selling your share
of the stowaway back to jack,

Now.

Well, as I explained
to your fiance,

My share's not for sale.

You couldn't be
more wrong about that.

It'll work
because he trusts me.

(gordon)
how can you be so sure?

That's impossible.

Because I know david's
deepest secret.

Where did you get this?
The wife he had
before we met...

That's not important.
The fact that I have it is.

The one who died in 1990?

So it has been you
all this time.

I haven't even begun
to make you

And your family suffer
for what they've done.

(closes laptop)

So...

This is how it's gonna go.

You get your sorry ass
back to the stowaway

And tell jack that
at the second look,

The numbers
no longer make sense to you

Or that you've had
a change of heart

Or whatever lie it is
you need to tell him.

As long as when
you walk out of that bar,

Jack is once again
the sole owner

Of the one thing his father
was able to leave his sons.

And after you've apologized

And wished him well...

You never,

Ever utter
the name porter again,

Or I promise, I will take
a wrecking ball to every bit

Of this pathetic excuse
for a life you've chosen.

(door opens)

(door closes, keypad beeps)

(phone rings)

You've reached nate.
You know what to do.

(flips papers)
(beep)

(sniffs) mr. Ryan, uh, yes,
it's, uh, conrad grayson.

I'm afraid our plan
to revitalize montauk

Has, uh,
run into a bit of a snag.

C-can you meet me at the harbor?

Thank you.

Colleen deserved better
than this.

Aiden, I'm so sorry.

I am gonna track them down

And put a bullet
in each one of their heads.

That's not the way.
You know that.

They'll just kill you, too.

You don't understand,
do you?

Everything I've done,
all my training,

Was to save my sister.

I've failed her.

Just because you
couldn't save colleen,

It doesn't mean...

That you can't honor her.

You know, we just have to
approach this

With a clear head.

Well, I'm sorry if I'm not
as cold and calculated as you.

I can't just turn my feelings
on and off

At the flick of a switch.

Is that what you think?

That I don't feel?

(voice breaking)
that I don't miss my father

Every single day?

That I don't mourn the life
that I could have had?

But that's why people
like you and me fight.

Because it gives us
something to live for

When everything else
has been taken away.

I thought
you understood that.

I thought we shared that.

(breathing heavily)

We can do this together,
aiden.

Don't go.

Aiden, don't leave me
alone in this.

Aiden.

(sniffles)

With my signature here,

The bar is yours,
mr. Porter.

#

I don't get it.

What changed?

Well, it turns out
the coastal commission

Caught a whiff
of our intentions

And threatened to keep us
in the courts for years.

So how about you simply
thank me

And I leave
this establishment forever?

How about you just leave?

With pleasure.

#

A month ago,
my mother called to tell me

My father had left
for a business trip

And that she hadn't heard
from him for three days.

As soon as I hung up
the phone with her,

I was contacted at the office
by a woman

Who told me
they were holding him

And that he'd be safe

As long as I did
what they told me to.

Not that I'd expect you
to believe any of this.

Well, let's just say

For now I do.

So...

What was next?

At first,
just to get close to you.

Which you did.

And then?

They wanted me
to locate a code

For a program you'd written
called carrion.

How did they know
it even existed?

I don't know.

I don't even know
what it does.

Well, let's just say,
in the wrong hands,

Carrion would have millions
of innocent people wishing

I'd never taken intro
to computers in fourth grade.

Lucky for humanity,

I gave you
an incomplete version of it.

So you knew all along?

Nolan,

You have to know

That through
this whole nightmare...

My feelings for you...

They're all real.

And I want to believe that.

I do.

I just...

Need to think.

About whether
you're going to help me...

Or leave me?

(daniel)
guys, crowley isn't asking

For an analysis of the metrics.

She understands the volatility
of these markets.

Now I asked you
to execute the purchase order,

So do it already.

(clatters)

(sighs)

If you execute this deal, you're
going to come to regret it

For the rest of your life,
however short it will be.

What's this?

Just read it, daniel.

Your client...
helen crowley...

She represents
the initiative.

And they have planned for you
what they did to us

All those years ago

When your father inadvertently
helped down flight 197.

Now if you go down the road
with these people,

You're not only
endangering yourself,

But everyone
that you care for,

Including emily thorne.

(sighs)

Why didn't you tell me
the truth?

Because they made threats
against your life,

Forcing my silence.

And they will make good
on these threats

If they ever find out
we've spoken.

Well, if I don't make that
transaction she's requested,

Helen's gonna suspect
something's wrong.

Your father and I have
a compilation of evidence

That should neutralize
helen crowley

And the initiative.

We just need time

To extract our complicity
from the equation.

It's essential
that you play along

And do exactly
what she says.

(helen) yes, I'm watching.

No, uh...

I'll deal with this.

(beep)

(nolan) we join here

On this beautiful day

To celebrate the union
of our dear friends

Jack porter...

And amanda clarke,

Two people
who found true love,

Trust, and friendship

In a world
that rarely makes that easy.

(david) amanda, honey?

Are you coming or not?

(giggles)
patience, please.

(wagner's "bridal chorus
from 'lohengrin'" playing)

Oh, that's...

(whimpers)
(laughs)

(chuckles)

#

(nolan) may I have the rings,
please?

You guys remembered the rings,
right?

Yeah.

Oh, my god.

You kept it?

This just goes to show

How long this was coming.

When we were kids, amanda and I
actually acted out this day.

She made me this ring
out of a pipe cleaner,

And she insisted...
(laughs)

That I wear a bow tie...

Which looked
a little something like this.

(chuckles)

What I remember...

Is a feeling I didn't have
a word for yet.

But when I was old enough
to recognize it as love,

You were gone.

But that feeling
stayed with me.

(voice breaking) you were
always in my heart.

(sniffles)

(clears throat)

Amanda...

With this ring...

You'll be in my life
forever.

Jack porter...

You are the most...

(voice breaking)
incredible person I know...

(sniffles)

The most... Kind

And loving...

And generous.

(sniffles)

I would say I don't
deserve you...

But if you've taught me
one thing, it's that...

Everyone deserves love...

And hope...

And security. (sniffles)

(crying) without you

I wouldn't
have any of these things.

With you,
my life is complete.

With this ring...

I promise to cherish you...

(sniffles) and to honor you
from this day forward

Until the end of time.

Ah-ah-ah. Almost there.

(chuckles)

And now by the power
vested in me,

I hereby pronounce you
husband and wife.

You may now kiss the bride.

(laughs)
(camera shutter clicks)

(jack and amanda kiss)

(amanda sniffles)

(jack laughs)

(nate) wait. Wait.
Hold on a second.

24 hours ago,
you were talking like

This was a done deal,
and now you're walking away

Because of
some regulatory hurdles?

Unfortunately,
there are times

When the other side
possesses leverage,

Which, shall we say,
rendered the fight too costly.

"other side"? Who?

Hey.
(closes door)

We're not talking about
the porters, are we?

(sighs deeply)

Okay, look,

Let's say
somebody was able to remove

This leverage
you're talking about.

Is the deal back on?

As it stands, mr. Ryan,

That's
a purely hypothetical question.

We never had
this conversation.

(opens door)

(grunts)

(closes door)

(cell phone alert chimes)

(beep)

(beep, auto-dials)

(cell phone buzzes)

(beep)

Hey, you.
(emily) hey.

Sorry I didn't
call you back sooner.

Uh, I had
jack and amanda's wedding.

Oh, was that today?

I-I had no idea.
(chuckles)

Guess I'm a little
out of touch these days.

Well, you are running
a major investment firm.

It's not exactly last summer.

No, it's not, is it?

Not at all.

Are you okay?

Look, I don't...I don't want
to force this.

And if it's not happening
for us right now,

Maybe we should take that
as a sign.

Uh... (huffs)

Daniel, where is this
coming from?

I've just been thinking,
and...

I just don't feel like
it's the right time

For us to rekindle things.

You know, it's been
a hell of a summer,

And I've got a lot
on my plate at work.

I just think it's best

That we wait for the dust
to settle a bit.

I-I don't know
what to say.

There's nothing to say.

Not right now anyway.

I'll see you around,
all right?

(beep)

(beep)
(exhales)

Mm.

(camera shutter clicks)

(amanda) aww.
(jack) yep.

See you soon, buddy.

You be a good little sleeper
for these guys.

Have a good time. Go.

Bye, baby. Mwah.

(kisses)

You, uh,
you ready to sail...

Mrs. Porter?

God, I like the sound
of that.

(laughs)

(whispers) careful.

Smile,
mr. And mrs. Porter.

(blows kiss)
got it.

Bon voyage.

(camera shutter clicks)
bye!

(motor rumbling)

Conrad, is that you?

No, victoria.

The house is empty.

It's just us.

I thought

You above all people

Would have known better
than to test our resolve.

How the hell
did you get in here?

Did I not make it
abundantly clear

There would be
deadly repercussions

For warning daniel
against us?

If you do anything to harm him,
I swear that I will...

You'll what,

Neutralize me?

That's right.

We heard everything.

So unless you hand over

Whatever evidence you claim
to possess,

Daniel will soon receive
a call

Asking to meet me
for a drink.

Only when he gets downstairs,

His regular driver
will have taken the night off,

And you will never
see your boy again.

You monster.

Takes one to know one, hmm?

You know, it'll be
almost a shame

When I finally
have to dispense with you.

Oh, well...

First things first, huh?

The evidence.

Or shall we make
that call to daniel?

It's in the pool house.

Show me.

(sets down glass)

The safe
is behind that mirror.

Okay, that's enough.

I'll take it from here.

The combination, please.

1...
(beep)

2...
(beep)

6-7-3.

(four beeps)

(clank)

It's empty.

This isn't.

(inhales deeply) well...

Clearly you are a woman
of many qualities,

Some of which I have

Regrettably underestimated.

Stop right there.

You're making
a very big mistake.

The mistake was yours,

The moment you put a target
on my son's head.

It's over, helen.

Why don't you just
put the gun down, hmm?

You're not gonna kill me.

Victoria, you wept
for 20 years

Over a man you betrayed.

I hardly think
you have it in you

To kill a person
in cold blood.

(grunts)

(thuds)

(cell phone rings)

(ring)

(ring)

(beep)

This is daniel.

(victoria)
listen to me carefully, daniel.

The next two words
out of your mouth need to be,

"hello, helen."

Your life depends on it.

Hello, helen.

Say you're sorry
I couldn't make it,

But that you'll be happy
to reschedule for tomorrow.

Well, I'm sorry
to hear about that.

Yeah, yeah, breakfast works
just fine for me.

Now leave the office.

Do not take the car service.

And I'll explain everything
to you when you get home.

What the hell is going on?

What was
that phone call about?

Helen crowley
came to see me.

She was here?
What...what did she say?

She said she was
going to kill you.

Oh, my god.

You're safe now. She's not
going to harm you any longer.

(clatter)

(liquid pouring)

You know what this
reminds me of?

Hmm?

(exhales)

We had our first kiss
on this boat.

That's right.

(clinks)

Except, um...

You were
a little bit closer.

Oh, yeah?

Mm-hmm.

(exhales)

(sniffles) like this?

Mm. A little bit closer.

How's this?

Perfect.

Um...
(carl fussing)

I can't find
carl's pacifiers anywhere.

I think I left them
on the boat

Along with my laptop.

Well, mine's working
just fine.

We'll have these uploaded
to photo-share by midnight.

Do you think it's okay
if we call and ask 'em

Where they keep
the extra pacifiers?

(fussing continues)
do phones even work

Out there
in the middle of the ocean?

Yeah,
the ship to shore does.

I'm just gonna see
if he answers.

Does no one answer
a phone anymore?

Amanda clarke stopped by
earlier today.

It seems we have

A rather extraordinary problem
on our hands.

I'll go first.

What on earth
have you done?

(aiden) I'm sorry
I walked away from you.

I needed time to think.

I won't allow myself
to become another casualty

Of these people.

My sister deserves better,

As do you.

They will still pay,
but...

On our terms.

I lost daniel.

Then we'll find
another way.

You know, you were right...

About everything
you said yesterday,

Except one thing.

What's that?

You're not alone
in this,

And you never will be.

We're drawn to form
a union with others...

An abiding drive to connect,

To love...

To belong.

In a perfect union,

We find the strength
we cannot find in ourselves.

(declan) jack?

Hey, jack.
Come in, it's dec.
(static crackling)

But the strength of the union
cannot be known...

(declan) jack, look,
I know you're...

(static crackles)

Until it is tested.
