The Cleaning Lady (2021–…): Season 2, Episode 7 - Truth or Consequences - full transcript

Previously on "The
Cleaning Lady"...

Get your things and go!

I saw you.

Riding off with her arms
wrapped around her...

Nadia, Nadia, Kamdar is a
threat to us and you know it.

There is no more us!

We found some videos.

If Marco had an
altercation that night,

it may have been recorded.

Can I speak to Detective Flores?

Go ahead and sign in.



I'll let her know you're here.

It was an accident. You
need to forgive yourself.

What if I can't?

You said there
was somebody here to see me?

Chris De La Rosa?

We can give you Robert Kamdar.

He's a loan shark who funds
criminal organizations in Vegas,

and he's in business
with Cortés.

My guy is just outside of Vegas.

I'll be in touch once
I reach those meds.

She stays.

You can go get the product.

When my man confirms receipt,

I'll send this one on her way.



I don't know what
kind of game you're playing,

but it's over if Julian
realizes who you really are.

It kind of looks like you
two are already old friends.

We can convince
Kamdar to introduce us

to this distributor
and sell our drugs.

Just go. I'll say
you grabbed the gun.

Maya? What is this?

So you set up a sting,
take them both down.

It's over, Julian.
Just let me go.

He didn't have a gun.

I-I couldn't let him get to you.

Garrett saved us.

Wait, you're not
taking our meds?

These drugs are only authorized

to be used in a
deal with Cortés.

So until we figure things out,

they'll be held
in FBI possession.

We've got nothing now.

Nothing to show Kamdar.

He's going to think that
we have something to do

with Cortés being killed.

I know, Thony.

I can't do this
anymore. I need out.

Look, I know, Thony, but
there is no way out, not yet.

We have to see this through.

We'll do it together.

Remember, we keep things simple.

Yeah, after we lost Cortés,
went to Bosco, got the drugs,

but he didn't reach out
to complete the deal.

And now we need a new buyer.

Thony, Arman.

Do come in.

This involves you both.

This is Nick.

He was Cortés's right hand.

I don't know whether you heard,

but after your meeting,
the FBI stormed in.

They killed Cortés, but
they didn't seize any drugs.

Is that correct?

No, no, we have the drugs.

Whatever happened must've
happened after we left.

Fortunately, you went there
either, were you, Nick?

No. I wasn't.

Well, you know what they say.
There's no smoke without fire.

And when there's a fire,

the rats will scurry
off to safety.

You didn't scurry off
the ship, did you, Nick?

Robert, come on.

Our crew's been
doing this for years.

It could only have been Maya.

Or these two.

Yes, his new business partners.

That seems most likely.

How do we know you
didn't set us up?

You're the one that
hooked us up with Cortés.

Next thing you know,
there's a raid.

We did what you asked us to do.

You've known Nadia
and I for years.

I've known Nadia for years.

You and I are just getting
to know each other.

But I don't know
anything about her.

Well, maybe I do
know a few things.

Thony lives with
her sister-in-law,

her niece, nephew, and
her little boy, Luca.

All very cozy in a little house

just a few kilometers from here.

Listen, we don't
work for the FBI,

and I'm not working with
someone who threatens my family.

We don't have to do
business with you.

You've made some
very good points.

Robert! Robert, I'm not a rat!

I-I swear, Robert! Nick...
Nick, keep it down.

Keep it down.

I can't think with that
noise you're making.

I have someone else who
will buy the drugs from you.

But this time, the deal
will be made on my terms.

Prove to me my
doubts are unfounded,

or you're as worthless
to me as this man.

No. No, no.

No, Robert. Robert.

Robert, please!

Robert! Robert!

Robert!

Well, go on, then.

You have a business to
run and a debt to pay.

Let's go home.
I... I need to...

I need to go home. Thony.

He threatened my family, Arman.

Thony, I need you to tell me

exactly what happened
at Cortés's compound.

I told you.

G-Garrett shot Cortés

because he was going to kill us.

What? Us who? Who,
you and Cortés's girl?

Why does Garrett care
so much about this girl?

Thony.

Thony, anything you hold
back endangers us both.

Look, she was
Garrett's informant.

I don't know. They...
They had an affair.

He wanted... He wanted her out.

By using us?

Thony, why the hell
didn't you tell me

this was personal for Garrett?

You realize what this means?

We don't know anything
about this Maya.

She could rat us out to Kamdar.

She didn't say
anything to Cortés.

She would not.

We need to cover our
bases, get ahead of this.

Let's go. I'll talk
to Garrett, okay?

Not without me, you don't.

He got us into this mess.
He can get us out of it.

Think it's this way.

Do you really think
I'm safe here?

I mean, if Kamdar thinks I'm
the one who got Julian killed,

he's going to come after me.

It was clearly an FBI raid.

Yeah, that he thinks I set up.

He's going to think
I'm the rat, Garrett.

Don't you get it?

He's not just
going to let me go.

Which is why you're
here. Alright?

This is a fully
protected safe house.

I've got an agent
coming to check on you.

She can stay with you.

This is temporary.

Is it?

I mean, I'm no
longer Maya Campbell.

I'm never going to see my
friends or my family again.

Isn't that what the witness
protection program is?

I am no longer me.

It's... Yeah.

I know. It's just crazy.

Listen, it won't be forever.

Alright? I promise you.

Just need to make
sure that you're safe.

Don't leave. Okay.

If you need anything,
you call me.

Alright?

Thank you.

Yeah.

How's Maya? She okay?

She's safe, yeah.

I didn't thank you
for what you did.

I could have wound up in
a six by nine for that.

Cortés would have killed us.

Everyone knows that.

Listen, I had to tell
Arman about Maya.

She used to be your informant.

Damn it, Thony.

I had to.

Arman, Arman, hey, Arman,
stop, stop it, stop, stop!

Arman, stop!

Do you realize the danger
you just put us in?!

Whose idea was it to
storm in and shoot Cortés

in the middle of a deal?
You touch me again,

I will break your
little pretty face.

Okay, alright, guys,
stop it! Both of you.

Because of that little
stunt you pulled,

you just signed
our death warrant.

Kamdar killed Nick Chambers.

Now he's on a rampage
trying to smoke out anyone

who might have
tipped off the FBI.

And right now it's
just us and your Maya.

Okay.

There's a way out.

We can do another drug deal

with a buyer that
Kamdar has lined up.

If we prove our worth, it
might buy us some time.

But we need the drugs
back to do the deal.

No, no.

They're out of my hands now.

No, you did this.

You get them back.

Otherwise, we're
as good as dead.

He threatened my family.

I mean, he... He
called Luca by name.

He knows where I live.

So if you don't get
the drugs back now,

we're all dead.

Come on,
Chris, play with me.

Ah, sorry, buddy, algebra
teacher piled it on today, so...

Okay.

Jaz, please?

I can't. I got homework, too.

I want homework.

Wait, wait, say that again
so I can videotape it

and show it to you
in a few years.

Go. You want homework?

Mommy, can I to school tomorrow?

Uh, not yet, but soon.

Hey, hey, enjoy
it while you can, okay?

But you said once I get better.

I know. I just, uh...

I just want you to
be safe, my love.

Mwah!

Hey, uh, Jaz, can you get some
homework for Luca, please?

Hey, Luca, I'll give
you some homework.

Let's go find your crayons.

Yeah!

Thony, what's wrong?

We need to pack overnight bags

for you and the
kids just in case.

Just in case what?

What's going on?

I can't go into it right now.

Please don't panic, Fi.

Packing "just in case" bags

sounds exactly like
a reason to panic.

Come on, Thony,
you can't ask me to do this

and not tell me what's going on.

I need to do something tonight.

When I leave, lock the
door and don't answer it

unless you know who it is.

Okay, seriously, you're
freaking me out now.

Keep the outside lights
on. Not the inside.

And keep your phone
with you just in case

I need to call you.

Fine.

But you can't keep me
in the dark forever.

Mommy, I can't find Turtle.

Okay, well, let's go
find him together.

Robert, I made my last
rounds on the floor,

and now I'm leaving for the day.

Somewhere nicer
you prefer to be?

I'm going to La Habana.

Oh, I see.

We talked about this,
Robert, and I was very clear

that if I worked for you,
I would set my own hours.

Don't get snippy.

You just seem in
such a rush to leave.

Is everything alright?

Well, no.

I'm just trying to stop
La Habana from sinking.

I'm throwing a party tonight
to attract new members.

A party and you
didn't invite me?

I'm so very hurt.

You shouldn't keep
things from me, Nadia.

We're closer than that.

You can come to the party
if you want, Robert.

I wasn't talking
about the party.

I was referring to yesterday's
unfortunate events.

Arman didn't tell you
Cortés was killed?

The FBI raid?

None of it?

Hm.

You really don't know.

I haven't seen
Arman in a few days.

Trouble in paradise?

My relationship with Arman is
none of your business and...

Don't do this, Robert.

I hate when you get paranoid
like this, so just stop it.

Whatever business
you have with Arman

has nothing to do with me.

Nadia?

If you want to increase
membership at La Habana,

I could join.

I'll bring a few people in.

That'd be great.

Thank you.

Please bring a date.

Garrett, what are you doing?

Cortés's right-hand man,
Nick Chambers, deceased.

Kamdar had him killed

right in front of
Thony and Arman today.

We need to release the drugs

or they're both going
to end up dead, too.

Those meds were only approved
for an exchange with Cortés.

Has Kamdar lined
up a new buyer yet?

Yeah, I don't know who,

but he's giving them a
time and a place to meet.

They need to be ready
for when that happens.

I need something more
definitive than that.

We don't have time for that.

Look, Maya's terrified and
Kamdar's coming after her.

And Thony and Arman have
been accused of being rats.

If they don't regain
his trust, it's on us.

And if we want her help
in taking down Kamdar,

we need her alive.

You didn't think to tell me
you're throwing an event?

You didn't think to tell me

that Cortés was killed
at your drug deal

because of an FBI raid?

Did Thony have
something to do with it?

Nadia, we weren't there.

It happened after we left.

What did he say?

It's what he didn't say.

He's angry.

And how bad is it?

It's Robert.

Just... Just tell
me what happened.

I...

It's best if you don't know.

It's him.

He wants to see me now.

Be careful.

And cut Thony loose.

She's going to get you killed.

Transaction's on for tonight.

But the buyer's a
little skittish.

Wants to make sure it's
in a safe location.

Yeah, we can arrange that.

You don't have to.

I already have.

La Habana?

Why not?

You get to show up
to your own party.

The buyer gets to meet you
and Thony on your own turf.

And if the Feds do
decide to pay us a visit,

it's your place, your drugs,

and you'll be holding the baby.

Arman.

Thony, did you get the meds?

I-I told Garrett I'll
call him when it's set up.

Which is now. Get
a hold of him.

We're meeting the buyer
at La Habana tonight.

La Habana? You're sure?

It was Kamdar's call.
He wants it there.

He doesn't trust us.

Thony, just get the meds
or we'll be screwed.

Okay, I'll call Garrett now.

Fi?

Here you go.

If you don't hear from
me when La Habana closes,

you should go.

Thony, please tell
me what's going on.

I need to know what to
look for, what to expect.

These are my kids
to protect, too.

Hi, Chris.

Detective Lana Flores.

You came by the station
to speak with me?

May we come in? Fiona: No.

Chris, don't let them in.

No, don't let them in.

Mom, what's going on?

Um, Jaz, keep Luca back, please.

Detective Flores,
what's going on?

I need you and Chris to
come into the station

for questioning.

We have new evidence in the
murder of Marco De La Rosa.

Are we under arrest?

Depends on how this goes.

They... They can't do take
us without lawyers, can they?

Right now we're just
talking about questions.

But if you feel
like you need one...

No, we don't. We haven't
done anything wrong.

Good. Then you and
Chris can come with me.

No!

No, you can't do this, okay?

Chris is a minor. You
can't take him without me.

Mom.

Mom.

Call Garrett.

We're right behind you.

Nadia.

You remember Yvette?

And Bianca?

Yes, I do.

It's going to be a
great night, I can see.

We could walk down memory lane.

We'll see where
the night takes us.

You want a cigar?

Why don't you pick
one out for me

and take the girls with you?

Sure. Come on, girls.

Where's Thony?

Excuse me.

She'll be here shortly.

I see your buyer's here.

It's a very crowded room.

How did you spot him?

Robert, I've been doing
this for a very long time.

In the Vegas night scene,
there's only a few types.

Educate me.

The tourists.

We do our best to keep them out.

The new money.

Never pass up free
booze or food.

And the decadent criminal,
where everything bores them.

That's the category
your buyer falls into.

He's sitting right behind
us with his two men.

And which category
do I fall into?

Well, you're a sociopath,
but you already know that.

But you and I have
something in common, Robert.

We know the power of money.

La Habana's not just a
place for gorgeous women

and Cuban cigars.

It's a place where
million-dollar deals are made.

So why don't you just
make the introduction

and we can get this going?

When your better half gets
here with the product,

they'll be ready
to meet you both.

Thony, where the hell are you?

So what
is it you wanted to tell me?

Do you know who
killed your uncle?

No. He... He just
wanted answers.

I asked your son.

Uh, no, no.

I...

I just, uh...

Yeah, I-I-I just wanted answers.

Then why did you leave the
precinct before talking to me?

Because he's scared.

Why? Did someone threaten you?

What? No.

No, it... it's because I'm...

I'm undocumented
and... And he...

He wanted to protect me.

Who else are you
protecting, Chris?

What? Uh...

Give us the room.

Okay, good.

I need to meet
Arman at La Habana.

You're not going anywhere
until you stop lying to me.

Sit.

If you're withholding
information,

it's called obstruction.

And you will be arrested.

He's not withholding anything!

Enough.

You're in here as a courtesy.

Step outside.

No.

N-No, he... he's not even 16.

In the state of Nevada,

it's legal to question a
minor without a parent.

Now, tell me. Did
you kill Marco?

No.

Did you get Arman to kill Marco?

Garrett, come on, I
am not a murderer.

But you were there, the night
that he was killed, huh?

Yeah, after you called me.

Okay.

Well, then how do you
explain this, huh?

I know
this is hard, Chris,

but maybe you can help me out.

That's your Aunt
Thony, isn't it?

That's you. And
that's a time stamp.

Which proves that you were there
at the time of Marco's death.

Are you saying this isn't her?

No, no, uh...

I-I-I-It's her.

It's...

You know, when I
confirmed your husband's death,

I had to gear up to call you.

To find the words to
break the news gently.

But all that time, you
used me, manipulated me.

So that's it? That's...
That's your new evidence?

Sure as hell is.

What do you think Chris
is going to say about it?

That's Auntie Thony.

But she didn't... she didn't...

I want to speak to a lawyer.

You help Chris cover this up?

No.

No.

I did it.

I killed Marco.

Garrett, you need to
get me out of this.

You're in no place
to make demands.

You need to tell me the truth.

It was an accident.

Marco called me to
go to the motel.

I just tried to
reach out to Luca.

And he grabbed me
and I pushed him.

You pushed him?

That's it?

Yeah.

We were right at the
top of the stairs.

Marco just fell.

He just fell.

You're lying.

Again.

You didn't kill him. But
you know who did, don't you?

Come on, Thony.

Who are you protecting,
huh? What, Arman?

Look at me.

If you didn't do this, you
cannot take the fall for it.

I need you.

Maya needs you.

We need to take down Kamdar.

Then do something about this!

I protected you when
you shot Cortés.

Now it's your turn
to protect me.

Oh, so that's it?

What, I just tell the
federal powers that be

that my C.I. committed murder
but to get her out anyway?

Hmm?

Is that not what your
little badge is for?

You want to get Kamdar?

You want to protect Maya?

Then you get me out of here.

Because otherwise more
people are going to die

and that's going to be on you!

Auntie T, I-I-I... I
didn't say anything.

Good. Good.

Hey, you're free to go, Chris.
Just wait for us outside.

Come on.

What's going on here?

I got a call from the AUSA.

Thony De La Rosa
needs to be released.

That's right.

She's an important
asset in a federal case.

So that's it?

You're just going to let
her get away with it?

I didn't kill my husband.

I made a mistake by not
calling when I found him,

but I was just scared.

I... I didn't want to
get arrested or deported.

I-I... I'm sorry.

I know I should not have lied.

People run when they're scared.

You know that.
That's all this was.

So unless you want to
deal with the AUSA,

Thony and her family
will be released.

Now.

Come on.

But...

Thank you.

The hell? We'll talk later.

Mommy!

Oh, my God, Thony, you okay?

Yeah.

I'm alright.

I just have to go do something.

What? Now?

It's okay.

Everything's over, right?

Agent Miller's going
to take you home.

Yeah.

You're
going to be okay.

Yeah.

Love you.

Where's she going?

So, an agent's going to meet you
out back with the meds, okay?

Okay. Could you...

Could you please stay
with them until it's done?

I got them.

Thank you. Alright.

It's been over an hour.

Where is she?

She had a hold-up.

She'll be here with
the product soon.

Robert... Nadia,
please, not now.

You're right. Not now.

Because this is a party.

And whatever you
need Arman to do,

it can wait until
tomorrow, right?

Come on, enjoy
yourself a little.

Come smoke a cigar
with me and the girls.

Nadia, will you tell the girls

that I'll see them
back at the house?

Thony, I never thought you'd
keep me waiting like this.

I apologize, Robert.

I'm not interested in excuses.

Is the product
here? Of course.

The truck is downstairs in
the loading... loading dock.

Gentlemen, ready to take
the party elsewhere?

All there.

Pleasure doing
business with you.

Next time, don't
keep us waiting.

Thank you.

You'll get your cut at
the appropriate time.

What the hell are you doing?

Hey!

Chris, Jaz, help Luca into bed.

I'll be right in.

Are you going to tell me
what the hell's going on?

Where did Thony go?

Don't worry. She's okay.

She's... She's just
doing something for me.

She wasn't acting like
everything was okay.

What are you making her do now?

Look, Fiona, you know I
can't talk about this.

She'll be fine.

When is this going to end, huh?

Haven't you put
her through enough?

Like, what is wrong with you?

What's going on?
Is Auntie T okay?

Chris, get back in your room.

No, I just need... Get
back to your room now.

No, I just need to know if she's
in trouble. Get back to your room!

I just need to know if
she's still in trouble.

Is she still with the police? No,
hey, she's going to be okay, Chris.

No, she's not, okay?

They... They think she
did it, but she didn't.

Please! No! I...

Chris, no.

Okay?

Please.

Please don't.

I did it.

What are you talking about?

I pushed him down the stairs.

I-I-I-I didn't mean it,
but he grabbed me, and...

Chris, please stop.

Please.

I didn't... I didn't
mean to push so hard.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I-I was just trying
to get to Luca.

That's all.

Garrett, it was an accident.

Please just don't bring him in.

Hmm?

Okay, hey.

Look at me.

Look at me. Let's
just take this inside.

Okay? Come on.

Look, I get why you
all tried to hide it.

The law can be tricky,

especially for people
in your circumstances.

But from what you told me,
it wasn't your fault, Chris.

It wasn't?

It was an accident.

You didn't intend any harm.

And since Marco
grabbed you first,

one could say it was,
uh, well, self-defense.

I'm not going to bring you in.

Your family's been
through enough.

Now it's time you put
all this behind you.

Hey, Robert, what the
hell is this about?

We did everything you asked for.

We delivered for you.

You did. But I
still have some concerns.

Thony, Arman, meet
Maya Campbell,

Cortés's girl.

Scooped up from
an FBI safe house.

She's a rat.

Now, either you two
are also rats...

or you're people I can trust.

Let's find out, shall
we?

Go on. Prove your loyalty.

I'm not going to do that.

You can kill me if you want,

but I'm not going
to shoot this girl.

Well, actually you will
because it's the only way

you and Thony walk
out of here alive.

No.

Very well.

Your time is up.

What's it going to be?

Don't do it.

Arman, no.

One.

Don't.

Don't listen to this.

Two!

Don't listen to this.

So what's it going to be, Arman?

Arman.

Arman.

No.

Three!

Everything go okay?

It's done. We're in.

That's a relief.

Thank you for
watching my family.

Of course.

No.

Katherine.

Garrett.

Is it her? Stay back.

Is it Maya?

Is it Maya?

I'm so sorry, Garrett.
