Riviera (2017–…): Season 2, Episode 7 - Bloodlines - full transcript
Nico drops a bombshell as he sets his sights on the Clios empire. Meanwhile, Georgina learns that Noah isn't all he seems.
Welcome to Underland!
Raoul.
Georgina will probably
hate it. They all will.
- Did you target me?
- No.
I think you're trying to
remember the moment we met;
and decide if I was playing you or not.
I just want something in my
life that isn't built on lies.
Adam is dead.
I killed him.
This is your father.
What if I told you
that Constantine is still alive?
No!
I've done some things
that I'm not proud of
since you 'died'.
Some things you shouldn't forgive.
How does it feel
to know that your first
born son was murdered
by Georgina?
Georgina is there no way
that we can find to fix this.
Don't you understand what
losing you did to me?
I would have lived
in a tin shack with you.
- Is it serious with Noah?
- I don't know.
I didn't think you would
be around to ask me that.
Georgina?
Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you.
No, not at all, I was just
lost in thought.
When are you off?
Well, I'm leaving the
staff behind to pack up.
It was killing me.
His personal things?
You know everywhere I look
there's another little heartbreak;
a scribbled note,
his nerdy little glasses.
You know,
I cried for two hours yesterday when
the police told me
that lovely little lapel pin
I bought for his birthday
wasn't among his effects.
I burned most of Constantine's
things myself, I was so messed up.
At least we have our precious memories.
Raoul Kabala:
my heart,
my life,
my soul.
No shadow will ever be dark enough
to dim your beautiful flame.
I summon the love of
our friends in this room
to help me give thanks
for your magic light.
It was beautiful.
Does this mean you'll
be in the US for good?
I can't stomach it here,
knowing the police have given up.
Such a shame you're
moving back to Miami.
Their failure was a
disgrace and nothing less.
You now it doesn't get easier.
I find I'm becoming worryingly immune.
The choir was extraordinary.
Yes, I've, I've always loved that song.
It makes you treasure
those you have around you.
It's a shame Noah
couldn't be here with you.
I'm beginning to think art
attracts loathsome bastards.
Present company excluded, of course.
We overheard Raoul's dealer from
Cologne discussing when to cash in.
Yeah, his work has tripled in
value, did you know that?
That's the art world
for you, unfortunately.
Let's try and focus on Raoul shall we?
And let the vultures get on with it.
_
_
_
_
_
_
Come in.
_
_
Your car's ready, Mr. Carter.
Yeah, thanks.
Hello!
I don't need to ask how you're doing.
You don't look so great yourself.
My kids used to gather
here with their friends.
Pool parties and barbecues,
drunk teenagers throwing
up in the planters.
I used to nag them about the mess.
You never met Adam.
He was no saint,
but he had this
intensity, this charisma
I need hardly point out
that he took after me.
How long are you planning
to stew in a hotel?
I just can't face her.
So, I've rented a Ferrari,
and I'm gonna drive through the hills
to distract myself.
Like a,...
Like a proper grown-up would.
Can I call shotgun?
Sure.
It's almost as if he
was never really here.
And we must convince
ourselves that he wasn't.
Everything
must go back to the way it was.
You can't command me to
un-know what I already know.
It's a betrayal of Daphne
to let this hang between us.
The secret.
Do you understand?
So this is the last time
we will ever mention it.
For your sister.
Of course.
Look, I'm very attracted to you too.
Excuse me?
There is obviously a lot of
complicated shit going on
in your life right now
I plan to charm you
into helping me with something.
It's about a painting.
Wow, it looks amazing.
I'm gonna have Noah come
over and take a look.
Are the authentication papers ready?
It makes for pretty harrowing
reading, I'm afraid.
The swastika stamp's real.
Philip Walker, your
friend's grandfather,
was given the Vermeer as a thank you
from the Gestapo for his
loyal service to the Reich.
It hasn't seen the
light of day since then.
It looks like
Noah will have to share his haul though.
The restitution team have flagged
that a cousin of Noah's
filed a claim to the
Vermeer some years ago,
should it ever be found.
I mean, I'm assuming that
this cousin is legit.
I've been dying to see it.
And you.
Show me.
It looks more amazing than
I could ever have imagined.
We got it cleaned and
restored and authenticated.
The Nazi restitution
board's very grateful
for your tenacity in tracking it down.
Your cousin's really grateful too.
Your cousin, Odile, in Quebec?
You know she's had a claim registered
on this painting for years.
I'm not aware of a cousin.
Strange cos she's aware of you.
Well then, I'm glad
to have been of help.
Well, I'm sure that she'd
wanna thank you in person.
What's the time difference there
maybe we should give her a call.
I, I don't know what your issue is...
My issue
is that I think you've been lying to me.
Again?
Please. I'm not staying for this.
Well, if you're not lying to
me, then stay and explain.
Tell me I've misunderstood.
Tell me that your cousin's a
fraud and that I lack trust,
because at least that
part would be true!
Tell me you haven't been
playing me this whole time.
Because your cousin Odile
thinks that you're dead.
My real name is Daniel Attali.
I met Noah Levy in the army.
We fought together,
we trusted each other.
He was my friend.
And your friend, Noah,
never mentioned a cousin Odile?
I don't think he knew about her.
Or he didn't wanna share.
He wasn't like that.
Naomi and Pawel were his grandparents.
We were always going to go
after the painting together.
It was the plan for after the army.
I said I'd help.
But he was killed by a sniper.
So, you decided to pursue the Vermeer
out of some sort of loyalty
to your brother in arms?
Yes.
That's noble.
Are you sure it wasn't the twenty
million dollars the painting's worth?
I mean I get it, you had to
be him, in order to collect.
Believe it or not, we don't all
live to fill our bank accounts.
That's not fair.
I wanted to fulfil one of his dreams.
Ok,
but why use your friend's
identity with me?
What do you have some dark secret
that you're trying to cover up?
Do you?
It takes a liar to know a liar.
And there's something you've
kept locked inside you
since the day we met.
We've played around it, Georgina.
And you've found me out, but you?
You're unreachable.
Whatever you think of me,
I'm not going to apologise for
sticking a gun in that Nazi's face.
I hope Lacroix rots in prison.
I'm proud I put him there,
and I'm proud the Vermeer's
back in safe hands.
To me, that's worth all
the money in the world.
I stood at my sister's grave with
Georgina when her dad passed.
It was plain and pleasant, like this.
The ugly secrets were all there.
Maybe I'm partly to blame.
I was fun Uncle Jeff one minute,
parent to a grieving kid the next.
What did I know?
I lied to her about her mother,
I lied about how shit life could be
cos I just wanted her to have
good times for once.
Nico!
Can we talk?
Ok.
I can't help wondering,
I knew him so briefly, what was he like?
Constantine was charming
and very generous.
He was also controlling,
and secretive and dangerous.
He was extraordinary. I thought.
What's that Gloria Steinem quote?
'The truth will set you free,
but first it'll piss you off'.
Yeah.
Little of an underestimation
in my case, but...
Well, the point is I'm
done being pissed off.
Here come with me.
This is the only room of
his that I didn't clean out.
You can come on in.
Take your time.
I can't quite get used to 'Daniel'.
You're leaving?
What do you want?
Ok.
I over-reacted.
But I've been lied to way
too many times in the past.
And yeah, I wasn't
totally open with you.
But I didn't even know
who you were, right, so
why don't we just scratch that and...
- Move on.
- I'm married.
What?
You need the truth. I'm married
and we have a little girl,
Clemence.
They're back home in Israel and
they've been very patient with me.
Ok.
Does your wife
know about us?
Look, I hope you get to find some peace
from whatever is that's haunting you.
You know nothing about me.
Exactly.
We were perfect for each other.
Hi Jeff, it's me.
I was thinking I could really do
with hearing your voice right now.
Then I realised
that's incredibly selfish
especially after
everything that's happened
and what you must think of me.
Anyway, you're probably floating
in the Caribbean right now,
with the future Mrs. Carter number five.
So, I'll leave you to it.
I love you.
I like it, I think it's gonna work.
- Ok.
- Ok!
Brilliant, I'll catch up with you soon.
- Thank you.
- Good.
Fields full of grapes
for wine you can't drink,
it's nothing short of masochistic.
Oh wow, you've come all
the way here to point that out.
I can't,...
I can't bear the
distance between us all.
It's not making anyone happy.
Yeah, well what did
you expect? I told you,
your timing sucks.
Then let me fix it.
Come to the house, we'll
have dinner like we used to.
Yeah, yeah, I'll speak
talk to Ada, but she's
busy starring in her own tragedy,
thanks to that Eltham twat.
Maybe she wouldn't've needed
such distractions if we
pulled together as a family.
Look, if you're serious
about mending things,
you can't ignore the tension between
you and Georgina. I mean, it's...
You should be impressed I can
bring myself to speak to that
self-righteous preacher at all
I'm staying out of it,
don't want to know.
Will you help me?
Yes!
There's tea in the drawing room.
Shall we?
I've erm,
well I thought you should know,
I've decided to sell the
Fort to Georgina Clios.
What's brought this on?
Well, she wants a permanent
home for her collection,
and I need to release some funds,
if I'm going to stay
here all year round.
Which is what I've decided.
Since I'm not going away now.
It's what I need.
But you said it yourself
'everything must stay as it was'.
For Daphne? Remember?
Yes, yes, yes I know.
But she's married, now,
and Henry's gone.
I have to make a life for myself.
Do you understand?
Here you are.
- What are you two talking about?
- Oh God, Daphne.
I do wish you'd stop
sneaking about the place.
All I do, seemingly, is lurk about
pissing her off.
But you do it so brilliantly.
Gold medal for me then.
She can hardly look me
in the eye at the moment.
I suppose she's told you about her plan
stay on here.
Well, if that's what she wants, hmm?
Yeah.
Maybe I'll sail off
somewhere lovely with Raafi.
Leave her to it.
But I should be lonely without you.
You come and visit
or...
Find yourself a wife
now that you've stopped
corrupting that little Clios girl.
Do you ever wish that
there were more of us?
Elthams, I mean.
I think the world has enough on
its plate with us two, don't you?
Probably.
Hannah love, can I get a coffee?
Thanks.
Thank you for coming to meet me.
I know you're a busy
man so I appreciate it.
Not at all. I was
intrigued by your message.
So, what is it you wanna discuss,
'away from the house
and face to face'?
- I'm actually after a bit of advice.
- Ok.
But I'm really hoping that we can,
you know, count on your
discretion, it's a family matter.
I don't keep things from
my wife, bear that in mind.
I need a lawyer,
and I know your guys are the best.
Are you ok?
I just need a specialist in probate.
Hey.
Ada and I are going to a
barbecue later at mum's.
- Oh, sounds fun.
- We'd like you to join.
Mum want you to come.
I doubt that.
She wants to make peace.
Is that so hard to believe?
Your mum usually has an ulterior motive,
I'm just not up for it.
I'm not defending her,
but it's the closest I've
seen her come to an apology.
Just think about it.
Hey so, I was thinking.
I wasn't exactly the ideal parent,
and you sure as hell
weren't the typical kid, but
we're all we had.
So how about I stick
around a little longer,
and we figure out
how it all got so bad.
What do you say?
I knew there was something off about him
right from the first time I met him.
I even checked his wallet.
Yeah. He said.
He's just as fucked up as I am,
when it comes down to it. But...
He has someone to go back home to.
You don't get to do what I did
and walk off into the sunset.
I don't know if I'll ever come
to terms with what you did.
But I am here to try to
help you live with it.
There's something else I need to
tell you before you promise me that.
I thought Irina was his first love?
Yeah, so did she.
But it turns out
Constantine and Cassandra
were teenage sweethearts.
He was up there all along,
fighting for his life
with her by his side.
I ended up face to face with
the man I thought I had buried
and before I even got my head
- around that, he was dead...
- God all over again.
It's all like some fucked up nightmare.
And I can't tell Christos,
Irina, Adriana any of it,
it would destroy them.
I'm trapped by my secrets.
I can't make this any
easier for you. I'm sorry.
And I'm not asking you to.
This was Constantine's escape plan?
Yeah.
You got a light?
Don't let it burn!
- Do the back as well.
- Hey, Christos?
Why is it that men get so alpha
when there's a barbecue around?
Ma, you wouldn't be that
way if it were an omelette.
Sorry when did you
last make an omelette?
Darling, I haven't cracked
an egg since the seventies.
Hey, Georgie!
Hi!
Jeff,
what've you been up to?
You know, croupier, yada yada.
Ok pal,
cool your heels,
we're about to get busy.
Come with me.
We need to find a way to move forward.
We have to trust each other.
No more making unilateral decisions, ok?
It was your unilateral decision
that brought us to this
place, let's not forget.
I know.
And I am sorry.
But there's no going back now.
We don't have to like each other.
But mutual consideration is essential.
For the sake of the
children I have left.
I'm working on it.
What about you?
Hello, darling. Help yourself.
Daphne's having a Kir, but I'm
sticking to Chablis.
What is it?
Nico came to see me earlier.
I think...
Cassandra, I think if there's
any way you can manage it,
that this would be best coming from you.
This is gonna be good for us, Daph.
You'll see.
You should have told me.
I wanted to know what our options were.
I spoke to Raafi and he said...
Oh God, don't think
that I didn't notice how you
used Raafi in all of this.
- Daphne
- Oh, you made it obvious,
and then you went and you hid.
And as ever, I was the last to know.
Daphne I...
I, I literally think my
head's gonna explode.
Listen, listen, look at me ok?
You need to stop with this.
Stop thinking emotionally and
start thinking rationally.
Ok?
Dad wasn't my father, Nico.
- I am fucking emotional.
- Enough.
Let's go.
Let's go home.
What was it like growing
up as an only child?
Oh, I don't, I don't really think that
I was one after I moved in with Jeff.
I, we used to play these
practical jokes on each other.
Oh my God, do you remember that?
Yeah, I do.
She once forged my lottery ticket.
And I thought I won
thirty million bucks.
So, I went down to the
place and I was mortified.
I almost had a heart attack.
I mean I felt bad for like a second.
Nico!
I'm sorry to barge in unannounced.
I went to Carmella and your
housekeeper said you were here.
Look I really, really don't
wanna spoil your dinner,
it's actually my hope that your
presence might improve
things eventually.
Sorry, have you got something
to say or have you just...
Listen,
there's no easy way to say this.
Constantine Clios is
my biological father.
If this is your idea of a joke,
then I think there's something
seriously wrong with you.
It's no joke,
my mother assures me that
Constantine and herself
were sweethearts
long before he met you, Irina.
- This is bullshit.
- No, it's not bullshit.
The blood test'll prove it.
- We're brothers, Christos.
- I think you should leave.
Yeah, I think you need...
Wait, everyone just calm down.
Nico, I don't think
this is the right time.
Yeah, I understand that. I was pretty
perplexed at first too, but now...
- Yeah, thank you...
- I'm actually really excited.
I'm the eldest son in
a whole new family.
- You need to...
- Ok, let it sink in,
and we'll talk when
you've had a chance, yeah?
Now do you see?
What's wrong with him?
Hey!
We agreed.
You came to my house and
said you needed closure.
Constantine robbed me of my father.
He took my mother and my girlfriend,
my very sense of self.
Am I supposed to just sit
back and let everyone else
profit from his violation?
I think not.
You know what?
Maybe I'll give you guys
a couple of minutes.
I mean, it's obvious isn't
it, he's after money.
Yeah, well you know what those
English aristocrats are like
with their crumbling
houses, all wealth and no
cash.
I believe him.
Well that's just ridiculous.
- Christos.
- How can you believe a word that
comes out of that guy's mouth?
Why would he lie about
something like that?
Because he's
spoilt and arrogant
and desperate to be the
centre of attention, that's why.
If he is lying, he wouldn't've
offered to take a test.
This is absurd.
Yeah, I mean, it's...
It's completely absurd.
What is it you're saying,
that Adriana's been
sleeping with her brother?
- It's not true.
- Exactly.
Even if it's true,
how could she have known?
No, it's not true, he's not my brother!
Stop! Just stop!
Constantine is not my dad.
What?
What did you...
Negrescu's my dad.
Hey, I gotta say,
I thought I'd heard it all.
Who does that?
What does he think he's
gonna gain by ambushing us?
Control, I dunno.
Look, the guy's an egomaniac.
After what happened with Constantine,
I really thought I could trust him.
Yeah, his work has tripled in value.
Did you know that?
That lovely little lapel pin
I bought for his birthday,
wasn't among his effects...
The whole show was geared
towards his suicide.
I take it this isn't a social call.
You're really enjoying this, aren't you?
The chaos that you cause.
You get off on it.
We're not so different
you and I, Georgina.
I admire you,
I really do. You're one of the
few people I actually do admire.
What did you take from
Constantine's room?
Nothing.
What did you do to Constantine
when you were alone with him?
What are you implying?
You killed him, didn't you?
I think it's fair to say that
my mother killed Constantine,
keeping him locked up in
that foetid little room
when he should've been
in intensive care.
But let's not split hairs.
Why did you kill Raoul?
Constantine and Raoul.
If that were true,
I'd be some sort of evil genius,
wouldn't you say?
Getting away with double murder
while the police flounder
about like backward bed-wetters.
You're not getting away with it, Nico.
I'm coming after you.
Coming after me, with what?
Don't be so pedestrian.
You're wearing Raoul's lapel pin.
This?
It's beautiful, isn't it?
Dime a dozen on Jermyn Street,
but don't let me spoil your fun.
You're a psychopath.
Now that is interesting.
Prove it.
Raoul.
Georgina will probably
hate it. They all will.
- Did you target me?
- No.
I think you're trying to
remember the moment we met;
and decide if I was playing you or not.
I just want something in my
life that isn't built on lies.
Adam is dead.
I killed him.
This is your father.
What if I told you
that Constantine is still alive?
No!
I've done some things
that I'm not proud of
since you 'died'.
Some things you shouldn't forgive.
How does it feel
to know that your first
born son was murdered
by Georgina?
Georgina is there no way
that we can find to fix this.
Don't you understand what
losing you did to me?
I would have lived
in a tin shack with you.
- Is it serious with Noah?
- I don't know.
I didn't think you would
be around to ask me that.
Georgina?
Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you.
No, not at all, I was just
lost in thought.
When are you off?
Well, I'm leaving the
staff behind to pack up.
It was killing me.
His personal things?
You know everywhere I look
there's another little heartbreak;
a scribbled note,
his nerdy little glasses.
You know,
I cried for two hours yesterday when
the police told me
that lovely little lapel pin

I burned most of Constantine's
things myself, I was so messed up.
At least we have our precious memories.

So, you decided to pursue the Vermeer
out of some sort of loyalty
to your brother in arms?
Yes.
That's noble.
Are you sure it wasn't the twenty
million dollars the painting's worth?
I mean I get it, you had to
be him, in order to collect.
Believe it or not, we don't all
live to fill our bank accounts.
That's not fair.
I wanted to fulfil one of his dreams.
Ok,
but why use your friend's
identity with me?
What do you have some dark secret
that you're trying to cover up?
Do you?
It takes a liar to know a liar.
And there's something you've
kept locked inside you
since the day we met.
We've played around it, Georgina.
And you've found me out, but you?
You're unreachable.
Whatever you think of me,
I'm not going to apologise for
sticking a gun in that Nazi's face.
I hope Lacroix rots in prison.
I'm proud I put him there,
and I'm proud the Vermeer's
back in safe hands.
To me, that's worth all
the money in the world.
I stood at my sister's grave with
Georgina when her dad passed.
It was plain and pleasant, like this.
The ugly secrets were all there.
Maybe I'm partly to blame.
I was fun Uncle Jeff one minute,
parent to a grieving kid the next.
What did I know?
I lied to her about her mother,
I lied about how shit life could be
cos I just wanted her to have
good times for once.
Nico!
Can we talk?
Ok.
I can't help wondering,
I knew him so briefly, what was he like?
Constantine was charming
and very generous.
He was also controlling,
and secretive and dangerous.
He was extraordinary. I thought.
What's that Gloria Steinem quote?
'The truth will set you free,
but first it'll piss you off'.
Yeah.
Little of an underestimation
in my case, but...
Well, the point is I'm
done being pissed off.
Here come with me.
This is the only room of
his that I didn't clean out.
You can come on in.
Take your time.
I can't quite get used to 'Daniel'.
You're leaving?
What do you want?
Ok.
I over-reacted.
But I've been lied to way
too many times in the past.
And yeah, I wasn't
totally open with you.
But I didn't even know
who you were, right, so
why don't we just scratch that and...
- Move on.
- I'm married.
What?
You need the truth. I'm married
and we have a little girl,
Clemence.
They're back home in Israel and
they've been very patient with me.
Ok.
Does your wife
know about us?
Look, I hope you get to find some peace
from whatever is that's haunting you.
You know nothing about me.
Exactly.
We were perfect for each other.
Hi Jeff, it's me.
I was thinking I could really do
with hearing your voice right now.
Then I realised
that's incredibly selfish
especially after
everything that's happened
and what you must think of me.
Anyway, you're probably floating
in the Caribbean right now,
with the future Mrs. Carter number five.
So, I'll leave you to it.
I love you.
I like it, I think it's gonna work.
- Ok.
- Ok!
Brilliant, I'll catch up with you soon.
- Thank you.
- Good.
Fields full of grapes
for wine you can't drink,
it's nothing short of masochistic.
Oh wow, you've come all
the way here to point that out.
I can't,...
I can't bear the
distance between us all.
It's not making anyone happy.
Yeah, well what did
you expect? I told you,
your timing sucks.
Then let me fix it.
Come to the house, we'll
have dinner like we used to.
Yeah, yeah, I'll speak
talk to Ada, but she's
busy starring in her own tragedy,
thanks to that Eltham twat.
Maybe she wouldn't've needed
such distractions if we
pulled together as a family.
Look, if you're serious
about mending things,
you can't ignore the tension between
you and Georgina. I mean, it's...
You should be impressed I can
bring myself to speak to that
self-righteous preacher at all
I'm staying out of it,
don't want to know.
Will you help me?
Yes!
There's tea in the drawing room.
Shall we?
I've erm,
well I thought you should know,
I've decided to sell the
Fort to Georgina Clios.
What's brought this on?
Well, she wants a permanent
home for her collection,
and I need to release some funds,
if I'm going to stay
here all year round.
Which is what I've decided.
Since I'm not going away now.
It's what I need.
But you said it yourself
'everything must stay as it was'.
For Daphne? Remember?
Yes, yes, yes I know.
But she's married, now,
and Henry's gone.
I have to make a life for myself.
Do you understand?
Here you are.
- What are you two talking about?
- Oh God, Daphne.
I do wish you'd stop
sneaking about the place.
All I do, seemingly, is lurk about
pissing her off.
But you do it so brilliantly.
Gold medal for me then.
She can hardly look me
in the eye at the moment.
I suppose she's told you about her plan
stay on here.
Well, if that's what she wants, hmm?
Yeah.
Maybe I'll sail off
somewhere lovely with Raafi.
Leave her to it.
But I should be lonely without you.
You come and visit
or...
Find yourself a wife
now that you've stopped
corrupting that little Clios girl.
Do you ever wish that
there were more of us?
Elthams, I mean.
I think the world has enough on
its plate with us two, don't you?
Probably.
Hannah love, can I get a coffee?
Thanks.
Thank you for coming to meet me.
I know you're a busy
man so I appreciate it.
Not at all. I was
intrigued by your message.
So, what is it you wanna discuss,
'away from the house
and face to face'?
- I'm actually after a bit of advice.
- Ok.
But I'm really hoping that we can,
you know, count on your
discretion, it's a family matter.
I don't keep things from
my wife, bear that in mind.
I need a lawyer,
and I know your guys are the best.
Are you ok?
I just need a specialist in probate.
Hey.
Ada and I are going to a
barbecue later at mum's.
- Oh, sounds fun.
- We'd like you to join.
Mum want you to come.
I doubt that.
She wants to make peace.
Is that so hard to believe?
Your mum usually has an ulterior motive,
I'm just not up for it.
I'm not defending her,
but it's the closest I've
seen her come to an apology.
Just think about it.
Hey so, I was thinking.
I wasn't exactly the ideal parent,
and you sure as hell
weren't the typical kid, but
we're all we had.
So how about I stick
around a little longer,
and we figure out
how it all got so bad.
What do you say?
I knew there was something off about him
right from the first time I met him.
I even checked his wallet.
Yeah. He said.
He's just as fucked up as I am,
when it comes down to it. But...
He has someone to go back home to.
You don't get to do what I did
and walk off into the sunset.
I don't know if I'll ever come
to terms with what you did.
But I am here to try to
help you live with it.
There's something else I need to
tell you before you promise me that.
I thought Irina was his first love?
Yeah, so did she.
But it turns out
Constantine and Cassandra
were teenage sweethearts.
He was up there all along,
fighting for his life
with her by his side.
I ended up face to face with
the man I thought I had buried
and before I even got my head
- around that, he was dead...
- God all over again.
It's all like some fucked up nightmare.
And I can't tell Christos,
Irina, Adriana any of it,
it would destroy them.
I'm trapped by my secrets.
I can't make this any
easier for you. I'm sorry.
And I'm not asking you to.
This was Constantine's escape plan?
Yeah.
You got a light?
Don't let it burn!
- Do the back as well.
- Hey, Christos?
Why is it that men get so alpha
when there's a barbecue around?
Ma, you wouldn't be that
way if it were an omelette.
Sorry when did you
last make an omelette?
Darling, I haven't cracked
an egg since the seventies.
Hey, Georgie!
Hi!
Jeff,
what've you been up to?
You know, croupier, yada yada.
Ok pal,
cool your heels,
we're about to get busy.
Come with me.
We need to find a way to move forward.
We have to trust each other.
No more making unilateral decisions, ok?
It was your unilateral decision
that brought us to this
place, let's not forget.
I know.
And I am sorry.
But there's no going back now.
We don't have to like each other.
But mutual consideration is essential.
For the sake of the
children I have left.
I'm working on it.
What about you?
Hello, darling. Help yourself.
Daphne's having a Kir, but I'm
sticking to Chablis.
What is it?
Nico came to see me earlier.
I think...
Cassandra, I think if there's
any way you can manage it,
that this would be best coming from you.
This is gonna be good for us, Daph.
You'll see.
You should have told me.
I wanted to know what our options were.
I spoke to Raafi and he said...
Oh God, don't think
that I didn't notice how you
used Raafi in all of this.
- Daphne
- Oh, you made it obvious,
and then you went and you hid.
And as ever, I was the last to know.
Daphne I...
I, I literally think my
head's gonna explode.
Listen, listen, look at me ok?
You need to stop with this.
Stop thinking emotionally and
start thinking rationally.
Ok?
Dad wasn't my father, Nico.
- I am fucking emotional.
- Enough.
Let's go.
Let's go home.
What was it like growing
up as an only child?
Oh, I don't, I don't really think that
I was one after I moved in with Jeff.
I, we used to play these
practical jokes on each other.
Oh my God, do you remember that?
Yeah, I do.
She once forged my lottery ticket.
And I thought I won
thirty million bucks.
So, I went down to the
place and I was mortified.
I almost had a heart attack.
I mean I felt bad for like a second.
Nico!
I'm sorry to barge in unannounced.
I went to Carmella and your
housekeeper said you were here.
Look I really, really don't
wanna spoil your dinner,
it's actually my hope that your
presence might improve
things eventually.
Sorry, have you got something
to say or have you just...
Listen,
there's no easy way to say this.
Constantine Clios is
my biological father.
If this is your idea of a joke,
then I think there's something
seriously wrong with you.
It's no joke,
my mother assures me that
Constantine and herself
were sweethearts
long before he met you, Irina.
- This is bullshit.
- No, it's not bullshit.
The blood test'll prove it.
- We're brothers, Christos.
- I think you should leave.
Yeah, I think you need...
Wait, everyone just calm down.
Nico, I don't think
this is the right time.
Yeah, I understand that. I was pretty
perplexed at first too, but now...
- Yeah, thank you...
- I'm actually really excited.
I'm the eldest son in
a whole new family.
- You need to...
- Ok, let it sink in,
and we'll talk when
you've had a chance, yeah?
Now do you see?
What's wrong with him?
Hey!
We agreed.
You came to my house and
said you needed closure.
Constantine robbed me of my father.
He took my mother and my girlfriend,
my very sense of self.
Am I supposed to just sit
back and let everyone else
profit from his violation?
I think not.
You know what?
Maybe I'll give you guys
a couple of minutes.
I mean, it's obvious isn't
it, he's after money.
Yeah, well you know what those
English aristocrats are like
with their crumbling
houses, all wealth and no
cash.
I believe him.
Well that's just ridiculous.
- Christos.
- How can you believe a word that
comes out of that guy's mouth?
Why would he lie about
something like that?
Because he's
spoilt and arrogant
and desperate to be the
centre of attention, that's why.
If he is lying, he wouldn't've
offered to take a test.
This is absurd.
Yeah, I mean, it's...
It's completely absurd.
What is it you're saying,
that Adriana's been
sleeping with her brother?
- It's not true.
- Exactly.
Even if it's true,
how could she have known?
No, it's not true, he's not my brother!
Stop! Just stop!
Constantine is not my dad.
What?
What did you...
Negrescu's my dad.
Hey, I gotta say,
I thought I'd heard it all.
Who does that?
What does he think he's
gonna gain by ambushing us?
Control, I dunno.
Look, the guy's an egomaniac.
After what happened with Constantine,
I really thought I could trust him.
Yeah, his work has tripled in value.
Did you know that?
That lovely little lapel pin
I bought for his birthday,
wasn't among his effects...
The whole show was geared
towards his suicide.
I take it this isn't a social call.
You're really enjoying this, aren't you?
The chaos that you cause.
You get off on it.
We're not so different
you and I, Georgina.
I admire you,
I really do. You're one of the
few people I actually do admire.
What did you take from
Constantine's room?
Nothing.
What did you do to Constantine
when you were alone with him?
What are you implying?
You killed him, didn't you?
I think it's fair to say that
my mother killed Constantine,
keeping him locked up in
that foetid little room
when he should've been
in intensive care.
But let's not split hairs.
Why did you kill Raoul?
Constantine and Raoul.
If that were true,
I'd be some sort of evil genius,
wouldn't you say?
Getting away with double murder
while the police flounder
about like backward bed-wetters.
You're not getting away with it, Nico.
I'm coming after you.
Coming after me, with what?
Don't be so pedestrian.
You're wearing Raoul's lapel pin.
This?
It's beautiful, isn't it?
Dime a dozen on Jermyn Street,
but don't let me spoil your fun.
You're a psychopath.
Now that is interesting.
Prove it.
