The Girlfriend Experience (2016–…): Season 2, Episode 11 - Episode #2.11 - full transcript
FEMALE NARRATOR:
Previously on
The Girlfriend Experience...
It's over between us.
I don't want to see you anymore.
You don't love me?
No.
I don't believe you.
SHAW:
A.P. are gonna run a story
about my dropping
the investigation
in return for the donation.
They are saying that
I personally requested
the donation.
Where the fuck
did that come from?
Who leaked it? Was it you?
I need you to find out
as much information as you can.
If he's going
to give her money
what he wants in return.
I can't do that.
Yes, you can.
Please don't go.
- All right.
- Please...
- Please.
- Get away from me!
[ crying ]
I'm begging you!

RECEPTIONIST:

Darya Esford, please.

DARYA'S ASSISTANT:
Darya Esford's office.
Can I speak to Darya, please?
DARYA'S ASSISTANT:
Who's calling?
Anna Garner.
[ indistinct chatter ]
Erica Myles
did Attorney General Shaw
personally solicit you
for a campaign contribution
in return for him dropping
the investigation
into Crescent Health?
Firstly, Mr. Shaw did not
drop the investigation.
His office determined
there was no basis for one.
Second, there's
absolutely no connection
between the two events.
Right To Action made
a donation to a super PAC
supporting Attorney
General Shaw's re-election
simply because we think
he's done an outstanding job
and will continue
to serve the people of Maryland
with integrity.
But did he personally
solicit the donation from you?
I have no further comments
at this time. Thank you.
NEWS REPORTER #2:
Is it true that you met
with Attorney General Shaw
in his office
three days before he decided
not to investigate
Crescent Health?
Please contact my staff
for any further comments.
NEWS REPORTER #2:
Is it true?
What did you discuss
in that meeting?
9 Independence,
between First and New Jersey.
[ engine revving ]
I don't see the problem.
So what if Shaw dropped the case
because you paid him off?
Bribery isn't the problem.
It wasn't bribery.
Doesn't matter.
Call it what you want.
Government is the problem.
Government and its
ever-expanding regulation
is the biggest obstacle
to the free market
and my ability to make money.
So, if bribery helps destroy
people's faith in the government
I'm all in favor.
You don't have to worry
about me. You have my support.
I'm glad to hear it.
So, Erica tells me
you're an escort.
You must meet a lot
of interesting people.
For the most part.
You know, Erica showed me
a video of you blowing some guy
and him coming all over you.
Erica couldn't understand
how you could get on your knees
and debase yourself
but...kinda turned me on.
Are you in love with her?
Maybe, at one point.
Near the beginning
of our relationship
I was infatuated with her.
She had the kind of career
and success that I wanted.
So, that was a major turn-on.
But when I realized
how dependent she is
it passed pretty quickly.
To be honest, I find
her clinginess repulsive.
But she's been helpful
along the way.
She introduced me
to a lot of people
opened a lot of doors.
So, kept her around.
Now I just like to see
how far I can push her
and how she reacts.
So you don't live with her?
No.
She'd like to move in,
but...I have no interest.
- Can I see it?
- What, my apartment?
Sure.
[ door unlocking ]
[ footsteps approaching ]
[ door shuts ]
Feel free to look around.
Do you want a glass of wine?
No, I'm fine, thanks.
Are you sure?
I'm gonna have one.
[ glass clinking ]
Are you okay?
Sure you're okay?
I know it must be hard for you.
What are you doing?
You know exactly what I'm doing.
I don't know
what she sees in you.
What?
And this is coming from you?
I'll let myself out.
[ cell phone buzzing ]
Hello?
ASSISTANT:
May I speak
with Erica Myles, please?
Speaking.
ASSISTANT:
This is the office of
US District Attorney
John Larkin.
Mr. Larkin would like
to meet with you
regarding Right To Action's
relationship
with Attorney General Shaw.
Does tomorrow at 1:00
work for you?
Call my office,
my assistant will set it.
Who shall I ask for?
Sandra Fuchs.
So, I see they're
going after Shaw.
Yeah.
Larkin's office called this
afternoon. He wants to meet.
That can't be good.
I'm not overly concerned.
The donation was made
after Shaw announced
he wasn't going to investigate.
Larkin can't touch me.
It'll blow over.
How about you?
How was your day?
I had lunch with Anna.
What?
Yeah, she called me
at work on Tuesday
and asked to get together.
I think your break-up
hit her pretty hard.
She's obviously
still in love with you.
- Did she say that?
- She didn't have to.
It's clear
just from lookin' at her.
What did she want?
She wanted to know
about our relationship.
How we met, how we get along...
Stuff like that.
I think she's pretty torn up
and is trying to figure out
why you left her.
I brought her here afterwards.
She wanted to see
our love nest.
What do you mean,
you brought her here? Why?
I just told you, she's torn up
and probably punishing herself.
There was a moment
where she was staring at my bed
obviously thinking
about us fucking.
But I felt bad for her
so I tried to comfort her.
She's really very beautiful.
I can see why you were
so attracted to her.
You slept with her, didn't you?
I was really taken with her.
Why are you leaving?
We're just talking and I'm just
trying to be honest with you.
Would you prefer I lied?
Fuck you!
[ slurps ]
ERICA:
I heard that you
slept with Darya.
And you say you want a family?
You fucking piece of shit.
[ door unlocks ]
Here, come sit beside me.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
[ glass clinking ]
[ slurping ]
You're sexy.
I missed you.
I missed you too.
[ breathing heavily ]
[ moaning ]
[ moaning ]
LARKIN:
Do you really
expect us to believe
there was no quid pro quo here?
You can believe what you want.
You met with Attorney
General Shaw in his office
three days before
he dropped the investigation.
He didn't drop
the investigation.
His office determined
there was no basis for one.
Did Shaw ask you
for a contribution
in return for not pursuing
an investigation?
Why don't you just tell me
what you have?
Why don't you
answer the question?
Let me make this easy for you.
There are only two people
in the entire world
who know what was said
in that office
and you're not one of them.
Are we done?
[ knocking ]
Say whatever you want.
I need you.
Forgive me.
Don't touch me!
I never loved you. I just wanted
to see your reaction.
What are you saying?
You know exactly
what I'm saying.
It's over.
B-but you told me
that you cared about me.
You said I mean
everything to you.
You heard
what you wanted to hear.
Please don't...
Please don't. Please.
Please. Please don't.
[ crying ]
Please love me.
We can make it work.
Don't get hysterical again.
It's boring.
I'm sick of you
and all your feelings.
You're everything to me,
you're a part of me.
You're part of me,
you're an actual part of me.
I can't let you go. I love you.
Please, don't leave me.
I'm begging you.
Please don't leave me--
- You're a fucking leech!
- Please, I'm begging you.
Get off of me!
Get the fuck off of me!
[ sobbing ]
Get out of my apartment.
Get out!
I hope one day, you fall in love
and you aren't loved back.
I hope you're rejected
the way you rejected me.
And I hope that your heart
gets ripped out
and that you wanna die
the way I wanna die.
[ sobbing ]
[ grunts ]
[ bottle clinking ]
[ liquid pouring ]
Oh, fu...
[ crying ]
[ knocking ]
- Where's Erica?
- She hasn't come in yet.
MARDIAN:
It's 11:30, when did you
last hear from her?
Yesterday afternoon,
around 3:00.
Find out what's going on.
[ doorbell rings ]
Erica?
Just in time,
I need some more vodka.
My wallet.
Take some money from my wallet.
Get me my wallet.
It's in my pants.
What are you doing?
Get me some vodka.
Hey!
I'm fucking talking to you!
Can you not...fucking hear me?
You fucking useless...
piece of shit.
Get me my wallet, please.
Get me my...wallet...please.
I'm gonna help you up, okay?
I want some...
I want some vodka.
Okay, come on.
[ grunts ]
Sit down.
Okay. Can you take off
your underwear?
Leave them on. It's okay.
[ Erica sniffs ]
[ water running ]
- Are you ready?
- What?
Here we go.
One moment, please.
- Morning.
- Good morning.
[ beeps ]
- Good morning.
- Morning.
Come in.
I rescheduled
your conference call
with Lessing for 3 p.m.
this afternoon
and Baines can't meet
until next week.
Thank you. Um...
I'm sorry
if I embarrassed you yesterday.
It's not the most comfortable
thing I've had to do lately.
Please don't tell anyone
that you saw me that way.
I won't. Don't worry.
Thank you.
Did...Jim ask about me?
Yeah. I just told him
you weren't feeling well.
Left it at that.
- Thank you.
- Sure.
Anything else? Do you want
some more coffee or something?
No, I'm fine.
I still got this one.
Okay.
[ door closes ]
*
ERICA:
It's a waste of money.
Gerring's numbers aren't there.
I just don't see it.
[ knock on door ]
Hang on a second.
- What is it?
- It's important.
ERICA:
I'm gonna have
to call you back, David.
Thanks. What?
SANDRA:
I was looking
at the wire transfer
from Peter Koscielny.
What about it?
Koscielny set up A4 Trust,
a shell company
to make the transfer,
but ownership changed hands
three days before
the wire was made.
And a new company,
Citizens First
now controls A4.
I searched
for registration information
for Citizens First
but it's based in Toronto.
Show me.
Here.
Does any of this
make sense to you?
No.
But this isn't good.
Citizens First is owned
by S.L.C. Holdings
a shell company
also registered in Toronto
which in turn is a 100%
owned by Martin Hoban
a Canadian businessman
who's the majority shareholder
of Hoban Industries,
which is privately held
and Canada's eighth
largest company by revenue.
Hoban Industries' core
businesses are in the oil
and gas sectors,
primarily fossil fuel extraction
and refining and distribution
of petrochemicals.
What's Hoban's connection
to Koscielny?
CIPC Capital has stakes
in several of Hoban's businesses
including a minority position
in Hoban Industries.
Are you in business with Hoban?
Of course not.
That would be illegal.

[ elevator door opens ]
[ knock on door ]
[ door opens ]
How did your meeting
with Cusick go?
I want you to delete
any correspondence
between Koscielny and Chiesurin.
Everything, e-mails,
texts, phone logs...
Any record of us meeting.
What's going on?
No. Just do it.
What about the financial
records? You can't delete them.
The less they can access,
the better.
Who are they?
Never mind. Just do it.
Right now. Please.
And keep this between us, okay?
Of course.
[ door shuts ]

[ door opens ]
Hey.
Have you seen Erica?
I think she went
to the restroom.
Can you tell her I need
to speak with her about Baines?
- Sure.
- Thanks.
