There's something in it I need.

Help me get it back

you were never heard from again.

I have the $ million.

[LAUGHS] That's a nice try.

- Only Paige knew the code.
- She's an amateur!

Once I had the pages,
I was able to brute-force it.

DONNO: Right hand or... Hear me out...

[GRUNTS] ...left hand?

You know what, Donno?

Let's hear what he has to say.

The money's in a secure account.

If anything happens to me,
if you k*ll me,

no one gets a bloody thing!

DONNO: [GROANS] Mouthy.

[SNIFFLES]

Okay. What do you want?

I made a move against your
bosses that went very badly.

[BREATHES SHARPLY]

And I need protection.

Eight- or four-pound sledge?

Now, both of them have their advantages.

Donno.

We're listening now.

I have a plan that could be
very mutually beneficial.

Mm. And how would that work?

I give you a much larger slice
of the pie...

and you keep me safe.

Good job with your statement, Mom.

It's gonna help me make a solid case.

Anything to see those lunatic
murderers get what they deserve.

[CHUCKLES]

Now I understand how...

putting bad guys in jail
has some appeal.

[CHUCKLES]

- Good.
- [HANDCUFFS CLICK]

Then you'll understand why
I can't just let you walk away.

You would really put me in jail
after everything we just went through?

What we went through was because of you.

But it did mean something to me, Mom.

Let's just call it a start.

We don't get to cherry-pick
the rule of law. Sorry.

Come with me, Ms. Cessna.

Wait. Wait, wait.

What the hell else is there to say?

[TELEPHONE RINGS IN DISTANCE]

Sometimes you really
disappoint me, Jenny Bear.

Right back at ya.

And I love you, too.

If tonight's the night you're
gonna leave me all alone

[FOOTSTEPS APPROACH, CHAIR SLIDES]

Was wondering if you'd show.

[SUNNY SCOFFS]

No Cassie Dewell. Just your mama.

What are you doing here?

I need you to tell me
what you told that girl.

That's between me and her.

Oh, that's the way it's gonna be, huh?

You choose Cassie Dewell
over your own family?

Yeah, I am.

You're the one who made the choice...

All those years ago,
when you chose to hide the truth

about my own brother.

I was trying to protect you.

I don't believe you for a second.

♪♪

Your dad started drinking again.

When you leave me,
don't leave me no letter

On my bed

And I think he might've done
a bad thing.

I'm sure you'll figure out
a way to fix it.

Are better left unsaid

I mean...

anything can be buried
under enough lies.

Right, Mom?

I treated you real kind

I'm done.

Don't you walk away from me!

Cormac!

I can catch the train

[DOOR OPENS]

Cormac!

[DOOR CLOSES]

You know your dad's not gonna
let anything happen to you guys.

I know that.

[SIGHS] Can we talk
about something else, please?

You mean like how bad
this coffee is? Ugh!

I'm sorry.

At home, we have a machine.
I just push a button.

Mm, okay, well, there's
a place down the street

that makes a special latte with nutmeg.

- Mm-mmm!
- Ew! No!

- Mmm.
- Pumpkin, fine. Nutmeg, no.

Oh, okay. Well, here...
I'll need a receipt.

- Did you just...
- Yeah, and get whatever you want.

I was planning on it.

- Mm-hmm.
- [CHUCKLES]

[BREATHES DEEPLY]

- Okay.
- What is it?

- I just talked to Cormac.
- Uh-huh.

I'm gonna go meet up with Jenny,
bring Sunny in, get some answers.

Okay.

[EXHALES HEAVILY]

- WOMAN: Here you go.
- Thanks.

[DOOR OPENS]

If this where she's gonna die

- Mmm! [CHUCKLES]
- I love nutmeg, too, Emily.

Do I know you?

Nope. Just a fellow spice lover.

[CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY]
Yeah. Uh, not really.

And she knows every one

How do you know my name?

Living all her life here

Has put her to the test

Oh. [CHUCKLES]

Right.

'Cause when everybody
knows your name

Okay.

Have a nice day.
