Patrick Campbell could be one of our biggest scores.

The numbers aren't good. They are amazing.

Not in a million years, Max.

Oh, yes, you most definitely will.

The payoff is huge.

What's the payoff?

We get to live.

If you ever go to the police or try to find me, everyone in the world will know what's inside that folder.

I bet whatever's in your folder is way worse than what's in mine.

I have literally no idea what you're talking about.

Yeah, me neither.

Ready to go?

We were never going to run.

You need to stop saying "we."

Rules of the game, Sal.

You broke 'em. Maxie.

This is your ex-wife.

Your shape-shifting, money-stealing, professional con artist ex-wife, and mine, and his.

Guys, we need a Maddie code.

No alone time.

No contacting her on our own.

All: No sex.

Why don't you just tell me what you want?

You stole our money. Yeah, that's right.

You can't just take people's money.

You didn't just steal our money.

You took... our dignity.

Wrong. No one can take that from you unless you give it to them.

Anything else?

Yeah, you at least owe us some answers.

I don't have any answers.

Well, you haven't heard the questions yet.

Let me guess.

How could I do this to you? Right?

Or better yet, "Why me?" Yeah, exactly, why us?

Because it's my job.

It's what I do.

And because you let me.

Um... [chuckles]

Okay, we're willing to cut you a deal.

A deal. Mm-hmm.

There's no deal to be made because there is no money.

Uh, what about everything you stole from us?

It's gone.

It's gone? Yep.

What, it's just gone?

That's right. Okay, bullshit.

We're entitled to the truth.

You want the truth? Yeah.

And we're not leaving until we get it.

Okay.

Here's your truth.

You are in way, way over your heads, okay?

He's going to k*ll me in a very slow, painful way.

Who are you talking about?

What, you think I do what I do all by myself?

All right, so, here's what's gonna happen.

I'm going to get up, and I'm gonna walk out that door, and then each of you are going to turn around and go back to your lives because if you don't, then I'm quite literally a dead person.

And then all of you are not far behind.

There's your truth.

What just happened?

Ava... get out, let me out! What are you...

Maddie, wait!

Oh, God. Okay, he'll get her.

He'll bring her.

Maddie! I don't feel so good.

Jesus, Ezra, why haven't you been answering your phone?

Dad had a heart att*ck.

What?

I-Is he okay?

We don't... We don't know, man.

You just... You need to come home.

Mom is... It's rough here, man.

Just get home now.

You have the post-party blues?

Mm, no.

I don't think I'm any wiser.

Mm, I think you're a lot wiser than you know.

Thank you.

Really, thank you

for the party, the fireworks, everything.

You're amazing.

And I'm not even done yet.

I mean, you didn't think I was gonna really let your birthday pass without giving you an actual gift, did you?

Patrick. Hold on. Give me one second.

We... ugh. One second.

I would like you to open this, please, madam.

Oh, my God, you have done enough.

Yeah, I thought this weekend, I'd take you for a little getaway, unless, of course, you don't wanna go. [chuckles]

Wait, wait, don't you even wanna know where we're going?

No, no, no, anywhere that's away with you is exactly where I wanna be.

Hey, I'm so sorry about your dad.

But you know this isn't over.

Oh, maybe, or maybe we just have to accept that we're not getting what we came here to get.

We don't even know what we came here to get, so there's no reason to think we can't still get it, right?

You know, what's scary is that I'm starting to understand your logic.

Max said that Cece was in actual trouble, like v*olence, death.

[sighs] He's a con artist.

He was lying.

What if he wasn't?

Look, she chose this life, all right?

Patrick didn't.

He's a good guy. He's fine.

Whatever, it doesn't... Let me ask you something.

What if somebody could've come to you after you met Cece but before she totally screwed up your life and could've done something, could've stopped it, huh?

Just, what if someone tries to hurt her?

Or us?

I mean, I really think you should call Ezra before you...

I don't need Ezra's permission, okay?

I'm going.

You can stay here, or you can come with me.

Ugh, you can't leave. All right, watch me.

We're a team or whatever. All right?

Always forward, never back. That doesn't even apply in this case if you... Wait, Richie!
