Revenge (2011–2015): Season 3, Episode 14 - Payback - full transcript

Previously on Revenge...

- You set me up!
- I'm sorry.

[ Gunshots ]

I know it was you, Daniel.
I'm not going anywhere.

- We can build a future together.
- This is my future.

You're ending this with me?

I thought I could avenge
my father's death by myself, but I can't.

I need you to help me.

Conrad is suing Voulez for libel.

I'm willing to drop my suit
just as soon as you fire my son.

- If you think we're going to cave to your threats--
- I'll do it.



Jimmy Brennan?
Heard of him?

If I'm to believe what's in this police report,
he may also go by "Dad."

- What did Jimmy Brennan do to you?
- He kisses me.

When I try to pull away,
he pushes my face into the concrete.

I was expecting to see
the former governor's wife.

I'm the first Mrs. Grayson.

- Are you okay?
- Since my head injury,

I'm getting a little dizzy
sometimes.

You were marvelous last night,
Mrs. Grayson.

Emily: Of all the weapons
we take into battle,

there is none more powerful
than the mind.

It holds
our instincts and our training

and allows us to distinguish
friend from foe,

love from hate.



Dr. Sturman: Hold
perfectly still, Mrs. Grayson.

But if that weapon is unsound,

it is by no means disarmed.

For the mind is all the more
dangerous when damaged.

And there's no guarantee

that it won't choose itself
as its next victim.

Dr. Sturman: Physically,
you've recovered beyond expectation.

With regard
to your head trauma,

there are no permanent
neurological problems evident.

However,
there is a bit of swelling

between the frontal
and the left temporal lobes.

Would that explain

the pounding in my ears,
the blackouts?

I'm not a neurologist, Emily.

But the lab
forwarded the results to one.

He'll have a better analysis
for you tomorrow.

And until then,
what do I do? I...

I could be a risk to myself,
to others.

Given your state of mind,

maybe talking with someone
would help.

At the least,
it may help you remember what happened.

Because you still can't recall anything,
right?

Conrad: I'm glad to see
I am still welcome.

I thought you'd have
changed the locks by now.

Well, I have more important
things on my mind

than your departure, Conrad.

As have I while I've been
staying at the South Fork.

I can only imagine
what you've been up to.

Aside from having our son fired
for your amusement, I mean.

Actually...

I've come to care
about my new venture.

And, so that I may
approach it with a clear mind,

I wanted to pop by in anticipation of
convening our attorneys

to cement our divorce tomorrow.

Oh, I assume, as always,
my house will be

the first thing
you'll fight me over.

Why infringe on the
beautiful memories of our first divorce

by retreading the same duels
during our second one?

Mrs. Grayson,

there's been a fire
at the gallery.

Margaux: I still don't think
we should have let ourselves in.

Ah, the realtor was late.

Besides, I needed to
check for security issues.

Using break-in skills
I was unaware of.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Oh, my account manager
just quit.

That's the third person
to leave

since they heard of
Conrad's maneuver.

Do not say
"I told you so."

I'm taking
the wait-and-see approach.

That's what I did when Conrad bought
into the bar last year.

This is just to hurt Daniel.
Not me.

All right, look.

No more Conrad talk.
[ Chuckles ]

I don't want to bring in
bad mojo right off the bat,

'cause...
[ Breathes deeply ]

I think this
might be the place.

But you've only seen
two houses.

I know, but my dad said that
when you're looking,

the first one you like
is the one you should buy.

Though...

Are you sure
you'd want to live here?

I know it's nowhere near
what you're accustomed to.

I came here to start a new life

and to leave the one
I'd grown accustomed to in France far behind.

Since it's my birthday tomorrow

and you probably forgot again,

I decided I'd just
tell you what to get me.

Okay, guilty as charged.

So you name it, and it's yours.

I was rejected
from the design institute.

I thought I had a shot,
but I guess they thought I lacked experience.

So I was hoping you could
find something for me at Voulez.

You want my job?

[ Chuckles ]
'Cause it's available.

Seems there's no end
to Dad's insecurity.

He got me fired and
took my stake in the magazine.

I'm so sorry, Daniel.

At least
use it to your advantage.

I guarantee he'll flex
his sagging muscles to help you.

But you know what?

I'd rather spend my time

throwing you
an epic birthday party.

You can't pull all that together
in one day.

You deserve it, Sis.

After all,

seems pretty clear it's

me and you against the world.

What happened?

I came here
last night to work,

try to deal with what you told me,
and I, uh...

Well, I got so upset that I,
uh...

This is my fault.
I'm sorry.

No. No, no, no.
It's my fault.

You should go, though, all right?
Let me deal with this.

No.
We're in this together.

Wow.

Somebody really did a number
on this place, huh?

[ Sighs ]

I'm Jimmy Brennan,
the contractor you called.

I don't know
how you heard about me.

It must've been good, right?

Revenge S03E58
"Payback"

Hey.

Are those Aiden's?

Where's he going?

Wherever he tells my jet
to take him.

Is he here?

Since I knew
you were coming over,

I told him to scram.

I didn't want to confuse
an already confusing situation.

Did you want to
say goodbye to him?

[ Sighs ]
No. It's probably best this way,

especially since I don't know
what I'm doing half the time.

Which brings us to
why you wanted

twelve hours of South Fork
security-cam footage.

Okay.

Here you are on the phone.

Any idea
who you were talking to?

[ Emily sighs ]
No.

Well, I bet Conrad does.

[ Keyboard clacks ]

Picks up in the hallway.

You go in.

Conrad leaves.

[ Keyboard clacks ]

At least he was a gentleman.

He didn't come back
till 7:00.

When I woke up.

What is going on with you, Ems?

Blackouts?
Colluding with Conrad?

My C.A.T. scan
showed swelling.

When that goes down,
I'm sure whatever this is will stop.

Yeah, but is that
what the doctor told you

or what you wanted to hear?

She's sending my results
to a specialist.

Maybe you should
talk to a therapist.

You know I can't risk
telling a stranger the truth.

Yeah, but isn't that a risk
you're already taking?

I have survived on my own
this long.

Trust me.
I can handle it.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

You sure about that?

Who do you know in Los Angeles?

- Hello?
- Emily? Stevie Grayson.

- It's nice to talk to you again.
- Yeah?

I'm in town,
and I'm ready to process your divorce.

[ Sighs ]

I begged you
to leave well enough alone.

Yeah, that was before
you told me what happened --

Before you told me that
you were forced to sacrifice me,

move across the ocean
to stay away from that guy.

And I spent my life
building a world

to escape what he did.

And now he is in our space.

- I should never have told you what happened.
- Why?

So I wouldn't find out
what a monster he was?

Or that I'm a child of rape?
[ Inhales sharply ]

- I'm gonna kill him.
- Patrick.

Please...
Don't do anything.

If I lost you
because of that man...

You are the one good thing

that came out of
the worst time of my life.

It's why I hold you so dear.

Now, I want you to
fire that man now.

Jimmy: All right. Okay.
All right. Got it.

Daniel:
Charlotte loves his music.

You really think
you can get him?

For Daniel Grayson,
I'll clone him if I have to.

[ Chuckles ]

Ah, there she is.

Larissa,
this is my wife, Emily.

Daniel's told me
everything you've been through.

You're lucky to have
such a strong man by your side.

- You have no idea.
- Oh, I might.

He's pulling out all the stops
for this birthday party.

For Charlotte?

That's nice of you, Daniel.

I do all I can
for the people I love.

I'm gonna go check out
where the band should set up.

Okay. All right.

I heard you, uh --
you didn't come home last night.

I'm surprised you care,

especially
after you man-handled me.

Something I know you'll regret.

No, the only thing I'll regret
is my marriage to you.

Conrad: Because publishing
my memoirs in serial form

will only help
to increase our circulation.

And with my pedigree,
I can guarantee

that Mr. LeMarchal will see us
as something far more

than a curiosity
which lies an ocean away.

Wouldn't you agree, Margaux?

I need to speak
to Conrad alone.

Now.

You have no right holding
a creative meeting without me.

Oh, I can't help it if you're house hunting
while I'm settling in.

I run things around here.

And not my father,
as you seem to be implying.

You are absolutely correct.

He controls
an international media empire.

Mm-hmm, which is why
you're wasting your time

hoping he'll
care about this magazine.

Or maybe you just don't know
how to get his attention.

- Emily?
- Yes.

- Stevie Grayson.
- Nice to meet you.

I thought it best that we meet
someplace out of the way.

- Let's take a booth.
- Yeah.

I always like hiding out
in this Stowaway.

I knew we'd get along great.
I used to come here years ago.

- Well, thank you for coming again.
- You kidding?

I've handled
over a thousand divorces.

Nothing compares
to a Grayson man.

Only they could get me
to cross the country for a kindred spirit.

So, down to business.

Do you want to stick with
the terms you suggested

on the phone last night?

[ Inhales deeply ]
Well, um,

now that you've had the night
to sleep on it, I, well --

I think I'd rather
get your opinion.

Obviously,

Daniel cheating
in your residence

is grounds for annulment --
slam dunk.

[ Inhales deeply ]

You know, I --
[ Sighs ]

I don't know
if I can go through with this.

Daniel and I --
yes, we've been having a hard time.

But...
Maybe I'm overreacting.

You know,
I think we could work it out.

Really?

Last night,
you were convinced otherwise.

In fact,
you went as far to say that

you were also
in love with someone else.

No. It's just Daniel.

Okay.

You can tell me
whatever you want.

That look in your eyes...
Is a look of love,

and not for
the man you married.

[ Heartbeat pounding ]
[ Sighs ]

[ Breathing heavily ]

I can't lose you.

Not to my plan or to Niko.

No, Emily.

Emily.
You can't do this now.

What is wrong with you?
Let go!

[ Panting ]

Look, I have to go.

If you want to have
a sensible conversation...

I'll call you from London,
but this isn't happening.

Have you been told
where we're going?

[ Grunts ]

[ Grunts ]

What the hell are you doing,
Niko?

Avenging my father,

like I said I would.

You didn't think
I'd find this

under your bed?

Speechless?

That's funny, Aiden.

Because you knew
exactly what to say

when you showed up in Japan.

And when you tried to
send me to Russia

to kill someone
for a crime you committed.

I can't believe I nursed

my father's murderer
back to health.

I didn't murder him.

We fought like warriors.
He attacked me, and I defended.

A death was inevitable.

I wanted to tell you,
and one day, I would have.

But you had to
help Emily first.

That was the code
your father taught us.

- We go where we're needed.
- Oh, I'm counting on it.

I left her a clue

just to see if she was really
as good as he claimed.

And when she shows up here
to save you,

I'm gonna kill her.

What?

You took someone I love

on this spot.

You can watch
while I do the same.

We'll tell him $5,000 a month
in child support,

another $5,000 in alimony,
and --

[ Knock on door ]

Know what? Uh...
I am back tomorrow. Just sit tight.

[ Chuckles ]

I should have known
you were behind this, Conrad.

So I assume Emily's
whole divorce story was a sham?

Oh, no. No.
Quite the contrary.

Emily would be wise
to rid herself of my son.

That said...
I am glad you've come,

especially as we're neighbors.
[ Chuckles ]

You're living in a hotel?

Yeah, while Emily's chosen

to not follow through
with her inevitable divorce,

that hasn't stopped me
from proceeding with my own.

And are you planning on
treating Victoria

as horribly as you did me?

Actually, that's why I'm here.

You know, I regret the way
I handled things back then

and would like this chance
to make my sincere amends.

Hmm.

You know,
I want you to read this.

I believe it makes ample
restitution for my misdeeds...

With the added benefit
of giving Victoria

- her overdue comeuppance.
- Hmm.

[ Chuckles ]
There was a period in my life

when I would have
wanted nothing more.

But there's one problem.

I'm happy now.

Oh, well...

Why don't you give that time?

That always changes.

Yeah, most of my crew's
on another job.

But I couldn't
pass up the chance

to slap Grayson
on my client list.

Yeah.

[ Sighs ]

Hey, you got the power cut?

Uh... There you go.
You're all safe.

So, you accidentally
lit the blaze, huh?

Yeah, thanks for reminding me.

Yeah, don't beat yourself up.

Life's a bitch
if you live with regret.

Yeah, well,
you seem like the kind of guy

who can just move past stuff.

Are you kidding?

There's a ton of crap
I wish I'd done differently.

- Like what?
- Well, being a better husband.

Being a better father
to the boy I see

two days a month.

You, uh...
Just got the one?

Yeah.

Well, no, actually.

You want to talk regret --

back in the day
when I lived in the Bronx,

I found out I had another one.

Found out, huh?

Must have been
living the single life.

Hardly.
I wanted to be with his mother.

But she basically
hid the pregnancy from me.

Just about killed me
when I saw her

pushing that stroller
down Lexington.

Really?

Jimmy: I mean, how would you feel
if you suddenly realized

that there's this part of you
out there somewhere

that you never got to know?

It's a damn shame.

Yeah. Yeah. I know.
It is.

But you didn't hire me
to hear my life story.

It's just my long-winded way
of telling you

that I can get this all fixed up
and no one's worse for the wear.

Yeah, no.
I guess you're right.

You know, sometimes it's better
just to move past stuff.

And if I do my job right,

you'll forget
anything bad ever happened.

Stevie Grayson?

If that's
what you still call yourself.

It is, Victoria.

How are you?

Well, it seems
I'm condemned to revisit

the horrors of my past,
if you must know.

I'm sorry you see me that way,

especially since
the last time we spoke,

you were on my husband's arm.

[ Chuckles ]
I'm surprised you remember that at all,

considering
your level of inebriation.

[ Chuckles ]

But before I'm subjected
to similar verbal assault,

please excuse me --
It's my daughter's birthday.

Oh, the one fathered by David Clarke,
right?

You certainly have
made paternity quite a hobby.

Why are you here, Stevie?
For payback?

Because you still seem
as out of sorts

as you were
all those years ago.

You won, Victoria.
Isn't that enough?

Though I guess
you're still trying to take

what I already have.

Hm.

Nolan: Emily.
[ Footsteps approach ]

Ems.

Hey.

It happened again, didn't it?

I got worried
when I didn't hear from you.

It just never occurred to me

that you'd come home, I guess.

The question is,
where were you before this?

I, um...

I remember
being at the Stowaway.

With Conrad's first wife?

Emily, that was yesterday.

Do you even remember
what you talked about?

Uh...

Apparently when I called her,

not only
did I ask for a divorce,

but I almost
told her about Aiden.

Phew.

So, blackout Em
speaks the truth?

I'm aware of that, Nolan.

And are you aware that

you are living with the enemy

in a place where the truth
could cost you your life?

[ Sighs ]

Maybe your mind just wants to
throw in the towel, Ems.

[ Heartbeat pounding ]
[ Breathing heavily ]

Ems!

Together: [ Distorted ]
♪ Happy Birthday to you... ♪

♪ Happy Birthday to you... ♪

♪ Happy Birthday,
dear Charlotte... ♪

♪ Happy Birthday to you! ♪

[ Cheers and applause ]

♪ Make no mistake,
these are animal urges... ♪

♪ Make no mistake,
these are animal urges... ♪

♪ Make no mistake,
make no mistake... ♪

[ Music continues ]

Nolan,
call me as soon as you get this.

Well,
Daniel threw a beautiful party.

I can't believe Charlotte's 19.

A birthday
brings to mind many things.

For a parent,
it stirs up memories

of a day blessed by a miracle.

A joyful gift
cherished for years to come.

Sadly, it's an experience
you'll never have.

Which makes me wonder --

who were your parents?

Where did you come from?

And why are you still here?

Oh, I would be honored

to help you find an internship.

The magazine
needs more can-do spirits.

Thanks, Dad.
I'll make you proud.

Emily: A job at Voulez?

What a wonderful idea,
Charlotte.

And one I told you,
like, 30 minutes ago,

when you got here.

Of course. Sorry.

And at the risk
of repeating myself,

kudos to you for taking

my recommendation
to call my ex-wife.

Have you spoken to her?

I'm just curious to hear
how she reacted to your plan.

I remain optimistic.

You should know that
if at any moment

you feel unsafe
around my son again,

I've told them to
keep that suite

at the South Fork
on reserve for you.

I'm fine.
But thank you, Conrad.

All right.

Really?

Okay, that's good to know.

Thanks for the info.

Please.

Hear me out.

Why would I want to listen
to someone who fired me?

Your father forced my hand.

If he had moved forward
with his lawsuit,

the magazine would have folded.

I'm trying to save it...

- For both of us.
- Yeah, well, both of us

are no longer there to fight for it,
are we?

That's why I wanted to see you.

What do you know of
Conrad's relationship to my father?

Probably the same as you.

A while back, your dad had
some investments at Grayson Global.

But they haven't
been in touch in years.

Then what would he want
with Pascal's attention now?

I don't know.

But he's certainly forming
a lot of new partnerships.

One in particular
I plan to get to the bottom of.

Keep in touch.

[ Laughs ]

Jimmy: Very nice.

- I want to be, yeah.
- You gonna live there?

Charlotte, your friends
were asking for you on the veranda.

- Oh. Nice meeting you, Mr. Brennan.
- And a Happy Birthday to you.

You're the spitting image
of your mom.

[ Chuckles ]

I didn't mean to
crash your party.

I just need your approval on these
paint chips your son selected.

Oh, well,
I'm afraid that he and I

are going to have to
discuss his choices.

No problem.
It can wait.

[ Inhales deeply ]

[ Sighs ]

I... couldn't help
but notice

you staring at me just like that
in the gallery.

I beg your pardon?

Woman:
It's time to open presents!

Well, it took me till now
to pick up on it.

Come on, everyone!

I understand. I mean,
you're the ex-governor's wife.

You have to
keep up appearances.

I respect that.

You're mistaken,
Mr. Brennan.

Maybe I am.

But I don't think so.

Excuse me.

I have guests to attend to.

Go.

Make your little girl's dreams
come true.

Good night.

- Put it away.
- Nolan: Calm down. Talk to me.

Always
hiding behind technology,

afraid that everyone will find out
what a freak you really are.

I said put it away!

[ Breathes deeply ]

And that's when
you hulked out on my cell.

I hope that's
the only thing I broke.

[ Chuckles ]
Other than my ego?

Look, thankfully,

my phone
bore the brunt of your wrath

because you made it
terrifyingly clear

that you did not
want to be followed

when I tried to stop you
from going back into the lion's den.

I'm so sorry, Nolan.

I can't believe
I said those things to you.

I can handle it.

What I can't handle
is you flying without a net.

I mean, do you even know
what Conrad's master plan is?

Not yet.

Oh, God, I wish I could just

keep you locked up here
until the full moon passes.

I do have my guest room back.

[ Sighs ]

Aiden certainly
left enough crap here.

You think he would've mastered
the art of packing at this point.

Though my pilot said
he never showed up, so...

I don't know. You think
maybe he's coming back for it?

Was this in his room?

Yeah. Why?

It goes with Takeda's sword.

I was the only one
who had this.

You do things that aren't you
during these blackouts.

What if you planted it
for Niko to find?

And if she did,
she knows that Aiden killed her father.

[ Sighs ]

I've got to go.

Aiden.

Aiden.

Okay.

I'm gonna get you out of here.

[ Breathing heavily ]

I knew you'd come.

Let him go, Niko.

Not gonna happen.

He's guilty of too many things.

Like killing my father,

lying to me about it,

choosing a failure over me.

- You're out of your league.
- You're out of practice,

even if we were both trained
by the same great man.

But only one of us
was his favorite.

[ Both grunting ]

Aiden: Emily, no!

She doesn't deserve to die.

[ Breathing heavily ]

Emily. No.

You have every right
to want to see me dead,

but killing me or Emily
won't give you the peace you're after.

I loved you...

And you betrayed me

- and my father.
- No.

Your father
died by his own code.

Don't let the same
happen to you.

Please, Niko.
Go.

Can I get you
anything else?

Once upon a time,

you all made the best sidecars.

- Which means you knew my father.
- Mm-hmm.

Well, those were his specialty.

So, I can't promise
that I've got his skills,

- but I'm happy to try for a loyal customer.
- I'm fine, thanks.

I just wanted to stop by for old times' sake
before leaving town.

Okay.

Is that your boy?

Yeah. It's Carl.

Named for my dad, actually.

Great smile.

Stevie Grayson.

Jack...
Porter, obviously.

So you're Conrad's first wife,
huh?

We all make mistakes, right?

[ Chuckles softly ]

At least you were smart enough
to leave him behind.

Spoken like
someone who knows him.

I wish I didn't.
[Chuckles]

He's just caused
a lot of problems for my family.

How so?

It's long story.

I'll save it
for next time you're in town.

Hey.

Looks like it's time
to get the little man to bed.

All right. Come on.

- Babysitter: Bye, Carl!
- Thanks so much.

Sure.
No problem.

It was nice to meet you,
Stevie.

You, too, Jack.

[ Speed-dialing ]

Rachel, it's me.

Cancel my flight back to L.A.

And get me
Conrad Grayson's cell number.

You deliberately defied me!

Continuing to employ that man,

after I specifically
asked you to fire him!

I know what you told me, all right?
I couldn't do it.

- You have to do it.
- No, actually, I don't have to.

And after listening to him,
uh --

Maybe he's not a monster anymore, okay?
He's got regrets.

He's got things in life
he wishes he had done differently.

Why are you choosing to
hurt me in this way?

I'm not, Mom. I'm --

I'm choosing to
get to know him a little better.

There is nothing left to know.

He came to my home this evening --
my house.

He made advances toward me.

And I saw in him
the same heinous man

who drew me in
all those years ago.

It is me who's suffering, Patrick.
Not him, like you wanted.

Jimmy: Like you wanted?

Forgot my tool belt.

Look, Jimmy, we --
we should talk.

It's a little too late
for that.

I can't believe
I didn't figure it out sooner.

Vicky Harper.

Been a long time.

And you must be
the kid that she stole from me.

Quite the happy family reunion,
huh?

Hey, kid.

Did your dear mom ever mention to you
how she used me back then?

How she
took advantage of my help

to get what she needed
out of life.

And how did she thank me?

By giving you away.

I was 15 years old,

and I was looking for
someone to trust,

and you preyed on that.
You raped me.

You knocked on my door that night.
We had a drink. We hung out.

You said you were
feeling adventurous --

that you wanted me
down in that basement.

[ Crying ]
Oh, you bastard!

- Don't you dare walk away from me.
- No! Keep your hands off me!

Get your hands off her!

[ Both grunting ]

Oh, my God.

Oh, God.

We need to call an ambulance.

[ Breathing heavily ]

And he pushes my face
into the cold concrete,

and he whispers,
"relax, honey."

Relax, honey.

[ Weakly ]
Help me.

Relax, honey.

I'm fine, Emily.
You can go.

- Aiden --
- I don't want to hear it.

I guess I should be thanking you
for saving my life...

But I wouldn't have been in jeopardy
if you hadn't have planted that sword.

- Do you hate me that much?
- Of course I don't.

Then why do it?

I don't know.

But what I did...

[ Sighs ]
That wasn't me.

I've been blacking out.

Are you seriously gonna blame this
on some kind of mental break?

You think I wanted you dead?

It's like whatever...
state I was in,

I could see our reality.

I'm never gonna
give up my plan.

I can't give you a family,
a normal life.

So...
[ Sniffles ]

I don't know.
Maybe I was trying to push you away.

So why show up yesterday

and throw yourself at me,

looking for
some kind of reconciliation?

Or is that news to you, too?

And just so you know,

I never needed
any of those things.

I just needed you.

But you never gave me a choice,
Emily.

Get help...

Before you do something else
you'll regret.

My party was a blast, Daniel.

Sadly, no potential boyfriends,

but, still, thank you.

[ Chuckles ]
Stay single, Charlotte.

Life's far easier that way.

I think Emily's out to get me.

A bellhop at the South Fork
told me

that she and Dad are
working together on something.

Why would she trust him
when his mistress shot her?

I'm not sure.

But, uh...

They got close
when he thought he was dying.

And -- and you know he always
wanted me to marry Emily.

Listen, I need you to
help me with something.

What do you want me to do?

Voulez is Dad's
new base of operations.

Okay?
Now that you're working there,

find out all you can
about what he's up to.

All right? Like I said,
it's just you and me now.

The police called
with an update.

The coroner said that Jimmy died
from massive blood loss

following
a fall from his ladder.

He ruled it an accident.

Right, it's... an accident.

We're not guilty of anything,
Patrick.

What you did,
you did to protect me.

Yeah.

But still...

Standing there tonight,
watching my father die...

What is wrong with us?

We're victims of our world.

Of men like Jimmy Brennan.

But this dark chapter
in our lives is finally over,

and we can move on.

I don't know if I can.

Please sign it as you agreed.

I've had a long night
and would like some solitude in my home.

Well, there may be
a slight wrinkle.

What game are you playing now?

Sorry I'm late, Conrad.

How low you must have stooped

to put this one
on your legal team.

Oh, she's not
joining my legal team.

She's merely here to impart
some pertinent information.

Copies of
the Grayson manor property deed.

It turns out that the land was actually
purchased by Conrad

before our divorce was final.

And while I may not have
gotten much money in the split,

I did get all undeveloped
real-estate holdings.

This house belongs to me.

And I will fight you
until my last breath.

Let's hope that's sooner
rather than later.

But until then,
I own this place.

And I want you out
by the end of the week.

Homeless...

At your age, Victoria --
What a pity.

And you.

You're an idiot if you think
this makes us partners.

You wreak havoc
in the lives of others,

and that is about to
catch up to you.

Nolan: Doctor's still out
on your psychosis?

She called.

The anomaly in my scan
isn't causing the blackouts.

Well... I've been
worried sick about you.

And then, uh...

Something occurred to me
about your past.

- Someone, actually.
- Nolan...

Look, you have to
face the possibility.

[ Sighs ]
I know.

My mother.

She was your age when

she had her first break,
wasn't she?

When she tried to drown me.

[ Inhales deeply, sighs ]

If nothing ever worked
for her...

What hope is there for me?

Don't do that to yourself.

- There are people here to help.
- Who I'm driving away.

I lashed out at you.
I jeopardized Aiden's life.

I'm starting to go after
the wrong people, Nolan.

[ Breathing shakily ]

What am I gonna do?

[ Sighs ]

Okay.

Great, thanks.

I just need the loan approved,

and then I can make the offer
on the house.

What?

The guy says I should have it
in a couple days.

[ Chuckles ]

Oh, but then I won't be here
to celebrate with you.

I know.

I'll bring you something
for the house back from Paris.

You sure
you know what you're doing?

I have to force my father
to see me.

That's the only way
he'll hear me about Conrad.

- All right.
- I'll call you when I land.

Okay.

- Bye.
- Bye.

You can't get enough
of the old place, can you?

I'd actually like to hear

the stories you alluded to
last night.

About Conrad?

Um...

It's not really
any of your business.

Actually, it is.

Why?

Because, Jack...

I'm your mother.
