The Lying Game (2011–2013): Season 2, Episode 7 - Regrets Only - full transcript

A few months ago, I
discovered I had a twin sister.

And then she asked me to take her place,

keep the secret, find our real mother

and try to stay alive.

Put yourself in my shoes.

How long could you keep up the lying game?

Rebecca was protecting the secret
that she was your birth mother.

That's why Derek was killed...

to make sure that the truth stay hidden.

If anyone found out that you know

about me and Sutton, your
life could be in danger.



I'll keep your secret, Emma.

I thought you and I had that thing...

- Mads, we do.
- No!

I could use a night off. Come in.

- Good night, Kristin.
- I need

to make her think that I'm Sutton.

Maybe she would reveal something.

You drive me all around,

keeping me from the formal.

You two and your schemes.

- I'm really with Thayer now.
- I really know.

I was going through your
father's finances, and...

he was taking some withdrawals,

adding up to $20,000.



Did you just say $20,000?

Yeah, that's what they
found at Derek's house.

Ted was being blackmailed by Derek.

Ted killed Derek.

Why don't we split this wine

and talk till the sun comes up?

Deal.

I promised that I'll get
you through this, and I will.

Morning.

Hi.

Last night was...

It was... everything I hoped for.

I'm really glad it was with you.

I wish we could spend
the whole day together,

not even get out of bed.

Or... there's actually this
place I want to take you to.

I'm sorry. Of course.

You're thinking about the
other part of last night.

Yeah.

There's just got to be
some sort of explanation.

If Ted is my real father...

I can't believe he would kill someone.

Maybe he wouldn't.

We can't jump to conclusions yet.

I need to talk to Alec.

He said that once he got out of jail,

he would tell me more.

I mean, maybe he knows something.

You can't trust him
though. You can't trust him.

What?

I just think I need to...

explain to Ethan...

at least...

why we didn't go through with the plan.

Or...

you don't.

Maybe you just shouldn't
tell Ethan anything.

Keep this between us.

You should've used

one of these for a pillow.

I couldn't, really.

You were kind of hogging
'em all over there,

spun yourself a little towel web.

Well, I guess I saw my opportunity

- while you were busy doing weird cowboy impressions.
- Whoa. Whoa.

- Clint Eastwood is not a weird cowboy.
- Whatever.

Got to admit, I never thought
one of my best heart-to-hearts

would be with Ethan Whitehorse.

Maybe we don't need to tell the
guys at school about that, okay?

I'm serious.

You helped me realize I need to...

hear Jordan out and give
him a chance to explain.

I think he's a good guy.

Yeah.

And what about Emma?

You said things didn't
end so well last night.

Mm. You said a lot of things.

That's... probably just the wine talking.

Uh...

we should probably get out of here.

Yeehaw.

Uh... um...

Ethan.

Remember?

Didn't expect to see you here this early.

I was kind of thinking the same thing.

What happened last night?

Hmm?

Uh... w... well... uh...

With Rebecca.

Sutton shows up, you ditch the whole plan.

Sutton.

Oh. H... hey, Dr. Mercer, we...

Your mother is either looking for you

or will be soon. Come
on, I'm taking you home.

- No, that's okay. I have my car.
- Well, then I think you better get going.

Talk about this later.

Lucky for you.

He's cooler than most dads.

I need to talk to you. I have,
like, a million questions.

Okay, just keep it down.

I don't want to wake Mom.

So, I was freaking out

when you didn't come home last night.

Why didn't you confront Rebecca? I thought

you were positive that she was your mother

and that Sutton knew about it.

I was.

I... I am.

So do you not think Rebecca...

killed Derek?

Or that Sutton's helping cover it up?

Sutton showed up.

She blew it for us.

What do we do now?

I don't know.

I... have a couple of
things I need to figure out.

Like...

how you feel about
spending the night with...

Thayer.

Hmm. We...

- slept together.
- O-M-G!

Sit down and tell me

every detail right now.

Well, not every detail. Gross.

Was it everything you imagined?

'Cause mine was totally
in a squatter house.

It was everything I imagined.

That was you on the way to Coachella

talking about losing it, right?

Mm-hmm.

You thought it would be with Ethan.

Things change.

And Thayer made it...

he made it the perfect night for me.

For us.

Good.

You deserve to be happy.

After all that stuff with Ethan.

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

I'm just so glad it's all in the past.

Hey.

- Hey.
- You said that you wanted to explain...

your situation?

Why you went with Laurel to the formal?

So...

explain.

Rebecca made me take her. Okay?

Why would she do that?
And why would you say yes?

What a beautiful morning.

Or maybe it was just

a great night. I don't know.

Wow.

I love hearing my wife so chipper.

Hi, Alec. You were up late.

I was out shooting pool
with the boys. Yeah, you were

passed out when I got home. Yes, well,

chaperoning can be exhausting.

I'll bet.

Hey, Jordan. I got a 4:00

tee time today. Why don't you join me?

We can get to know each
other a little better.

You know what?

Um...

I'm sure he's got a busy day...

schoolwork. Maybe another time.

Actually, I'm free today. That'd be fun.

Great.

See you out there.

Got to warn you... I'm, uh...

I'm no duffer.

Sutton.

Look. About last night...

How could you not tell me

Rebecca is our birth mother?

Did you hear Laurel and I talking?

She knows that we're twins?

What did you tell her?

She's my sister.

- I should be the one to tell her.
- Oh, yeah?

But you didn't. And you
know what? I'm pretty sure

that you're keeping things from me, too.

Searching for our birth mother

is where this all started. It's what

brought us together, Emma.

Drop the act.

You knew about Rebecca.

I didn't. And now I can't even go

and throw my arms around her

because you guys think she's

some killer. And what?

I'm helping her cover it up?

Sutton. If you're so sure

that Rebecca killed Derek,

why didn't you confront her last night?

Okay, look.

I'm really sorry about last night,

everything that happened... tricking you

and screwing things up with Ethan.

Oh, I bet you are.

No, I am.

I really hope that you and
Ethan can make things work.

Why? So you can stop second-guessing

your feelings for Thayer?

I love Thayer.

I've never been happier in my life.

Well, I hope that's true, because if not,

you just gave it up to the wrong guy.

Oh, you're being awfully quiet.

I'm guessing that, uh,

the Flipside Formal of
yours didn't go so well.

Good guess.

Hey, Theresa. Hey.

Hey. I thought we were
having our flowers delivered.

You know we're gonna need
more than that, don't you?

Actually, Derek's mother
brought them by my office.

Apparently, someone's been leaving

flowers at Derek's grave.

Every week or so.

Why'd she give 'em to you?

I guess she trusts us because
we're investigating that money.

But she started thinking
a... and looking back and...

She doesn't know who's been leaving 'em?

No, and she's suspicious.

She asked his girlfriend,

- she asked his friends...
- Okay, well, what...

what are you thinking?

Maybe the guilty conscience of a killer.

We have to stake out that cemetery.

What... Theresa.

Our wedding's in two
days... rehearsal dinner

- tomorrow night, you know?
- Hey, listen,

I'm not saying that we should call it off.

I just...

I have a feeling about this.

I'm really hoping it's not cold feet.

You're not getting cold
feet now on me, okay?

Listen to me. There is
nothing that I want more...

than to be...

Mrs. Dan Whitehorse.

But we could be onto something here.

Can't we do both?

Sure.

I mean, we're a team now, right?

Mmm.

Look, I shouldn't have
fallen into their trap.

I'm sorry, but they did
kidnap me for a reason.

Yes, they think we're working together.

Well, I think it might
be more than that. I...

I think they...

maybe know something
about you that I don't?

What are you suggesting?

I don't know.

I mean, you play all these
games with everyone else.

How do I know you're not
keeping things from me?

You're not everyone else.

You're my daughter.

I would never lie to you.

And I'd hope you'd never
keep anything from me.

Never.

Good, because we are so
close to fulfilling our plan.

Ted and I danced last night,
and we were just one twirl,

one dip away from kissing.

Really?

We are so close

to getting our family back together again.

Hey, you have a second?

I got lots of seconds... Emma.

What's up?

Okay, you said when you got out of jail,

you would tell me more, so...

Yeah, I thought things were gonna be

a little different by now.

Look, I know Rebecca's my birth mother,

and I'm pretty sure Ted is my father.

I think Derek was blackmailing him.

Why?

Because Kristin found $20,000
missing from their accounts.

That's the same amount of money

- that was found at Derek's house, right?
- Yes.

Which means Ted knew about us,

and he was the one that split us up.

My own father was the
reason that I ended up

in foster care.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. No, no, no.

Ted didn't split anybody up.

Ted doesn't even know Sutton has a twin.

How do you know that?

Look, you're right.

Ted is your father.

But he's not a killer.

You know that.

Okay, well, then, you...
you-you went afterwards...

Me, me, me, what?

In case you didn't hear, I was exonerated.

I'm close with your father, but that's...

That's it, all right? Please.

I wouldn't kill for him.

Well, what does Kristin know?

Nothing.

We need to keep it that way.

Can't tell her a thing.

It would break her heart.

Fine, but how am I going to find out... ?

You're not. Just leave it to me.

Okay? The safest thing you can do right now

is just stay out of it.

This is a murder investigation, okay?

So, I thought we agreed that
you weren't going to go to him?

We didn't agree, and I
probably should have told you,

but I know how you feel about him.

Emma, it's not about how I feel anymore.

Look, Thayer, he told me that it was true.

Ted's my father.

- Oh, my God.
- But he's not a killer.

Okay.

I just need answers.

Yeah, we all do.

I'll see you later.

Okay.

What are you doing here? I thought...

I thought you had a golf game to get to?

Can't I stop and tell a
woman she looks beautiful

now that she's finally smiling?

I...

I have to change for
tennis with Sutton, and...

I don't understand what's going on.

I thought last night
you... you were going to...

I was.

It took everything I had not to.

Kristin, I'm not going to make a move

until I know it's what you want.

You need to do something
to make yourself happy.

Just for once.

Mads.

Hey, I'm glad I ran into you. Uh...

Look, about last night...

Laurel told me. Rebecca's
your birth mother.

Yeah, but that's not...

Look, I don't even want to
know what you guys were up to.

Look, I'm really sorry
that we didn't include you.

Well, my night turned out fine.

Oh. So, you and Jordan?

No.

I'm gonna go grab a bite.

I'll see you later.

Hi.

Come on, let's talk.

You tell me what happened last night.

I can't.

No?

Oh, I get it.

It's you and Thayer now, right?

You spend the night with him,

tell him everything, leave me in the dark?

Ethan, come on. It's not like that.

Well, that's sure what it seems like.

I mean, I broke up with
Sutton for you... again.

I've trusted you, I did
everything you asked me to,

and none of it matters.

You know... you know what?

Maybe you and Sutton aren't
that different after all.

Maybe that's what it is.

How can you say that?

I care about you so much, you have no idea.

You're right. I don't.

I'm tired of wishing I did.

Please?

No.

I'm not doing this anymore.

Emma?

What's wrong?

Something happen with Sutton?

No. It's just...

Thayer?

I thought what happened
with him was a good thing.

So did I.

But why do I keep thinking about Ethan?

I don't know.

I mean... he obviously
still has feelings for you.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have
turned on Sutton at the formal.

But... Thayer's really sweet, so...

Yeah, he's... he's sweet.

That's why I slept with him.

Hmm.

Oh, you need to be honest with him.

And yourself... before somebody gets hurt.

Good putt.

Don't sweat it, kid.

The important thing is,
you accepted the invite.

A lot of people find me intimidating,

although I have no idea why.

I see no reason to be intimidated.

Maybe it's because you're
a little more ballsy

than most guys interested in my daughter.

Yeah, that's right. I knew.

Which is why I was a little surprised

at your last-minute decision

to invite Laurel Mercer to the formal.

- I'm a last minute kind of guy.
- Really?

Or maybe it wasn't your idea at all.

Maybe it was Rebecca's.

I know about your past.

Your bad boy days in L.A.

Mama had to bail you out
more than once, didn't she?

You don't know what you're talking about.

Why don't you enlighten me?

'Cause I sure would love to know.

If you're in trouble with Rebecca,

if she's got you under her thumb,

I can help you out.

Think about it.

When you're ready to talk, I'm all ears.

Hey, I've been looking for you.

I want to finish our
conversation about Rebecca.

- Why? So you can go tell your dad?
- My dad?

- I didn't tell him anything.
- Then how'd he know

Rebecca made me take Laurel to formal, huh?

I have no idea, Jordan.

I swear.

I didn't know who to talk to.

Last call!

What? What are you talking about?

Your wife kissed my husband.

Where did you hear that?

I saw it... right here

today at the club, actually.

I'm so sorry.

This affects me, too.

I promise, I couldn't lie
about something like this.

Maybe this is just what
we needed, some time alone.

Yeah.

I think you're right.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine. I just...

I've got a lot on my mind.

No. I get it.

- It's been a crazy couple of days.
- Mm-hmm.

The stuff with Ted.

Are you sure that's what this is about?

It's not about us?

No.

No.

Promise.

So, I told him that

I saw them kissing with my own eyes,

and it was the truth. It
was like a dream come true.

So, you hate Kristin so much

that you don't care that she's
getting close to a killer?

Well... no,

that's not what I'm saying.

But you still think
Alec killed Derek, right?

Well, of course. I mean,

who else wanted to protect the
secret of the twins so badly

they'd kill for it?

Well...

you.

So you really think I
could be capable of... ?

I don't know what to think,

because Alec was let off,

so, some people obviously
think he's innocent.

And I'm not one of them.

I know in my heart that he killed Derek.

How do you know that? How are you so sure?

Because, I mean, splitting
up you and Emma...

it's horrifying.

I still can't comprehend
why he would do that.

So you think that Alec
would actually kill somebody

just so nobody finds
out that he split us up?

It's the only explanation that makes sense.

Ted, Kristin, even Mads and Thayer...

they would never forgive
him if they knew it.

Not to mention, he's the D.A.

He would lose his whole life.

Somebody still framed him, though.

Well, I... I may have gone a little too far

with making sure that he actually paid

for his crime this time.

What did you do?

Look, I am not the only one out there

that wants to see Alec go down.

Someone sent me the photograph

of Alec with the murder weapon,

and the tire iron just showed up

in my bedroom with a note on it, saying...

"Thought you could use this," so... I did.

So you're telling me you framed Alec,

but... but now there's just
someone out there pulling strings

like some... what, uber-villain?

Or uber... hero.

This is crazy... I am trusting
you, I am lying to Emma,

- I have lost Ethan...
- But not much longer, okay?

I-I'm just this close with Ted, okay?

I will tell him everything, and then...

we can tell Emma.

I got your text.

What, are we burying a body or...

digging one up?

Did you kiss my wife?

Yes, I did.

You bastard!

You're supposed to be my friend.

I'm the one who tried to help you.

Yeah, 17 years ago.

It was the best thing
anybody ever did for you.

So, Rebecca comes to you,
tells you she's pregnant,

doesn't want me to know.

And I made sure you did, didn't I?

So you could adopt Sutton
without Kristin or Rebecca

- knowing about it.
- Which is just as stupid now as it was then.

It gave you a beautiful family.

Which you're trying to destroy!

And I get it, I get it.

Oh, I complain, you go to Kristin,
tell her all about it, huh?

- Is that it?
- That doesn't make any sense.

She'd be just as upset with
me as she would be with you.

- I have to come clean.
- Oh, no.

- I have to come clean.
- No, no, that's not a good idea.

You don't want to do that.

And nail your coffin shut from the inside?

I think you're trying to keep this
thing buried. You're doing everything

you can to make sure it
stays that way, aren't you?

What the hell is that supposed to mean?

You made a mess out of Kristin.

Somebody's got to take care of her.

And that's exactly what I intend to do.

I thought I heard something.

Sorry.

Are you okay?

Couldn't sleep.

Did something happen with Ethan?

I... I never heard how the formal went.

Um, it's not about Ethan.

I'm actually with...

Thayer now.

Really?

Yeah.

It's just a lot of crazy
stuff that happened.

I understand this, I do.

I... I want to try and help.

I know you read that journal, and...

this thing with Alec
goes back to high school,

and like you with Ethan and Thayer,

I always knew my life
could go one of two ways.

But you chose Dad.

Because you trusted him, right?

Well, I used to.

I tried to deny my feelings for Alec

because they were scary, but
I can't deny they were also...

they were exciting, too.

- Mom...
- Alec was never

the right choice, he never fit this image

of how my life, my perfect
life was supposed to be,

and look what happened...
it just blew up anyway.

I'm so tired of caring about
what other people think,

trying to be a good girl.

I... I'm sorry, I know you
love your father, but...

my wish for you is that

you not worry about getting it right

and just go after what is real.

Damn, I'm hungry; how about you?

I'm fine.

I could call in some, uh... pizza.

Stop it.

I have to fit into

a wedding dress in... in 36 hours.

Yeah, you know, speaking
of which, what do you say

we forget about all this for, I don't know,

Mm. 37 hours, just...
just until we're married.

Then after that, if you want,

we can spend our entire
honeymoon staking out this place?

You would do that for me?

Sure, absolutely.

I want to solve this case, too.

I know how important it is to you.

It's just...

I got Alec off, and we still
haven't found the killer.

- So until we do...
- I know. It's just...

we let stuff like this
come between us before...

and I don't want to let that happen again.

That's why I have to solve this.

So we can put everything
with Alec behind us

- and we can just start our life again.
- And we will.

But just promise me,

for the next two days...
it's just you and me.

Okay.

Okay. Deal.

Come on.

Kristin?

- Ted?
- Kristin.

What the hell are you doing?

You can't just keep letting yourself

- in here like that.
- What the hell are you doing kissing Alec?

- Who told you that?
- Yeah, stop,

this isn't high school, even though that's

- exactly how you're acting.
- How dare you!

After everything...

God, I am so sick of
your sanctimonious crap

about something that happened 17 years ago!

I'm not talking about that.

I hired an accountant to go through

our bank records, just so I'd know

what to expect.

They found the money: $20,000.

Either you are a drug
addict, you're gambling,

or you are having another affair,

which I can understand... you need the cash

- for the motels...
- I'm not having an affair.

I don't care!

I've been carrying these
in my purse for a while.

Since before therapy.

I thought maybe...

I kept hoping...

but the truth is, I'm done.

The marriage is over.

Because of Alec?

No.

Because of me.

Mom?

Honey...

Sweetie...

- Honey...
- Get away from me.

Hey. Sorry about the other night, man.

Plan kind of went bust.

I know you're in the dark now.

That's fine by me.

Good. 'Cause, you know,

Emma's in a real fragile place right now.

She doesn't really...
she doesn't really want

a lot of people in her hair.

- Trust me, I'm not in her hair.
- Okay.

I just hope it doesn't bother you
knowing that she trusts me instead of you.

So that's what this is about?

Yeah.

But you're not bothered, right?

Just forget I mentioned it.

Oh, but you did.

Well, then my mistake.

Well, I guess mine was

letting Emma talk me into this.

No, yours was thinking you can screw her
sister and still get her to take you back.

Is that a touchy subject?

You better get used to that pain.

That's how it's gonna feel
when Emma dumps your ass.

Hey. Hey.

Um... I just wanted to
apologize for last night.

My head was just...

What happened?

I... I just...

I got into a fight with Ethan.

I think he's pissed that we're together.

But we've been together for a while now.

I... if he was pissed,

he...

Did you tell him that we slept together?

No. No, of course not.

Okay? But would it really be
that big of a deal even if I did?

- Why do you care so much if he knows?
- Because it's...

it's private and it's between us

and it... it was...

It...

I can't talk about this.

Emma, come on.

Emma.

Before Laurel begins, I'd
like to say a few words.

Mostly, I want to say how
proud I am of my brother...

for not settling,

for biding his time...

letting Theresa come crawling back.

No. Um...

It's an amazing thing...

to find love you thought you lost.

You know, you got to... you
got to grab it while you can

and hold on tight...

realize...

what you want... before it's too late.

So, uh, everyone,

please join me,

raise a bottle, or can.

To Dan and Theresa,

long may you love.

Hear, hear!

Are you okay?

- Mm.
- Oh...

Laurel, what's going on?

My parents are getting a divorce.

Sutton and I...

Emma and I... tried,

but...

I shouldn't even be telling you this,

but I'm just so sick of all the secrets.

Wait, wh... what are you talking about?

My mom said something
about kissing your dad.

My... dad is married to Rebecca.

Yes. And that's only the beginning

of my problems with this whole thing.

Has he...

said anything, or are he and Rebecca...

I have no idea.

Well... good news for you:

if Alec and Rebecca get divorced,

then Jordan won't be
your stepbrother anymore,

and you'll be free to date
the hottest guy in town.

Laurel...

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I... I...

There you are.

You disappeared on me.

- I... I'm feeling a little woozy.
- Yeah?

Pregnant?

Hmm. Wouldn't that be something?

- Yes.
- Yeah.

- Mm-hmm.
- No. I called a cab.

- You sure? I'll take you home.
- No, please. Uh...

Stay enjoy yourself.

Have fun. In fact...

the cab's here now.

Right.

- I'll, uh, see you.
- Okay.

Hey.

I want you to know

that I really did not tell my dad

about you and Rebecca and Laurel.

I would never do that.

I really like you.

And I thought you liked me, too.

I did.

I do.

I just...

What did my dad say?

'Cause I've kind of
been all over the place,

not trusting him, and
then trusting him again,

but now I'm starting to think

that that was a mistake because Laurel...

It wasn't a mistake.

You should trust him,
'cause he offered to help me.

With what? Rebecca?

What does she have over you?

She came along after my mom left.

Some stuff had...

my family got torn apart.

I started getting into trouble.

She helped my dad.

She helped me.

That's why I thought I could trust her, but

now she's using what I did against me.

She threatened me to tell my dad,

not to mention the police,
if I don't do what she asks.

And what does she ask you to do?

I can't, Mads.

I've already said too much.

I don't want to lose you.

I don't.

But you have to be okay with
me not telling you about this.

Why?

Is there... ?

I mean, my God, what does she make you... ?

Mads...

- You know what? Forget it.
- No.

Wait. I'm sorry.

Me, too.

Call me crazy,

but this is supposed to be

the most important night of our lives.

- And it is.
- But...

you can't stop thinking about that case.

What if we're missing it right now?

Rebecca left early.

Did you see that?

What if she's at Derek's grave right now?

Theresa, you promised me two days.

We're so close to getting answers,

and the answers are at the cemetery.

Thank you.

Hey, it was a nice job.

Thanks.

I hope you guys have a
great wedding tomorrow.

Yeah. Well, apparently,

it is the best man's responsibility

to take care of the bill.

Oh. So...

Here you go.

I'll give you the friends and family rate.

- Really?
- Yeah.

All right, thanks.

Listen, um... I really loved your speech.

It kind of busted me up because...

things with my parents are sort of...

busted.

Oh. I'm sorry. That sucks.

Yeah.

I don't know. So many things
have been going wrong lately

that I... I feel like I should be

doing my part to... I
don't know... make sure

something goes right.

Emma would kill me if she...

I mean, 'cause she's...
she's with Thayer now.

- I mean, she's totally with Thayer. Like...
- Laurel?

Just talk.

She's not over you.

Not by a long shot.

Come on.

I talked to her yesterday at the club.

If you really meant what
you said in your speech

about...

going after what you
want and not letting go...

you should go after Emma.

You know that I can get
a little... obsessed.

Oh, I know.

It was such a good
night. I didn't mean to...

Theresa, stop. I love you.

You don't have to apologize to me.

Okay. Well, how about I just...

I just marry you instead?

Oh.

Oh, come on, stay with me.

- No.
- Please?

No!

No! No. It's bad luck
for the bride and groom

to see each other before the wedding.

Yeah, all right.

Thank you for saying yes.

Thank you for asking.

Mmm.

All right, go.

See you at the altar.

Yeah.

Wow. I never thought
she would do this to you.

I'm so sorry.

Is there anything I can do, Ted?

I want a night like thones we had in L.A.

Just... it can't be like this, okay?

It has to be for the
right reasons this time.

Okay.

Okay, so much has happened, and...

and I've... I've done things.

I've done things, too.

Some day I'll tell you everything.

Rebecca's probably asleep.
Said she wasn't feeling well.

Honey, I, uh...

I saw you and Jordan
talking earlier at the party.

Looked kind of intense. Everything okay?

Yeah. Everything's great.

Yeah?

Look, Dad, I really can't tell you.

That's cool. I get it.

I just want you to know, I
care about him, too, and...

if there's anything bothering you,

you can always come and talk to me.

Jordan just did some stuff in the past.

- What kind of stuff?
- I don't know.

But what's scary is,

whatever Rebecca is making
him do because of it.

- Dad, I know she's your wife...
- It's okay.

Look, honey, we all do things
we regret from time to time.

Mm-hmm.

Well, I'm going to head up.

Okay.

Good night.

Good night.

- What are you doing here?
- Thayer's calling.

You want to answer it?

Look, can this wait?

'Cause it's been a really hard night.

Kristin is filing for
divorce, Laurel's devastated.

So why isn't Thayer here with you?

It... I told you, it's
been a really crazy night.

All right, listen,

you tell me right now if I'm wrong,

but I think you know you made
a mistake choosing Thayer.

- Ethan...
- Don't shut me out.

Okay, and don't try to talk yourself

into this just because he's
some kind of safe choice.

- What Thayer and I have...
- Is not what we had.

And you know it.

You don't know what's going on.

I promise you that it is not...

You deny it all you want.

You know I'm right.

You and me...

we're everything.

Theresa Lopez.

Hi. It's Sutton Mercer. The real one.

Look, I know you're Alec's attorney,

and you've protected him in the past.

I have some startling
things you may want to know.

Okay.

Can you meet me, tonight?

I can't do this over the phone.

Yeah, of course.

Uh... give me an hour.

Meet me at the diner off of Route 1?

Yeah, I'll see you there.
