Blindly in Love (2025)

[bunniefuu]

(film camera clicks)

(upbeat electronic music)

(somber music)

[Gabi] No, Travis, we're through.

- I just wanna talk.

- We did, we're done.

No I'm actually talk.

You don't answer my text,

you don't answer my calls.

You don't get it.

I don't get what?

I love you.

(somber music)

We 're supposed to be

together. Together, you and me.

[Gabi] I don't wanna

be with you anymore.

[Travis] Okay, give me an explanation.

Give me an explanation why?

If not another guy. Then why?

I told you.

I just don't wanna be with you.

It's suffocating and it's too much.

That's it.

(somber music)

(door beeps)

Hey, there she is, my lunch date.

(suspenseful music)

Travis, don't!

(gentle music)

Money or women?

Travis.

What, what?

Money or women?

Women, Tito, women.

Well that explains why

you're three in on a Wednesday.

Hold on.

You like this one?

It's on the house.

But if you want something

better, you know, I

Doesn't that cause blindness?

Well, I don't, probably.

In that case, I will

take something stronger.

And a Coke.

Okay, all right, all right.

So tell Uncle Tito about her.

What is there to tell? I

mean, there is no her anymore.

And we were together, oh boy,

about three, four, no, five,

five months we were together.

[Tito] Five months, that's it?

Almost six.

[Tito] Six. Okay.

I was gonna propose.

What, no, oh.

After five?

After five months?

You don't know something in five months.

That's a fricking horrible idea.

Are you serious?

Good horrible idea

or a bad horrible idea?

Oh, bad, very, very bad, oh.

- It's not even that bad.

- [Tito] Ugh.

But what about you?

What brings you here to this old place

like this on a Wednesday?

Old place, what?

This is Tito's, okay?

This is personality, this is ambiance.

This is an establishment, my friend.

Established in 1908.

Well, I'm at this

establishment to meet a friend

that I haven't seen in a very long time.

I got really lucky to get out tonight,

but let's see how long that lasts.

Congratulations on your escape.

And what can I get you then?

I will do a vodka tonic, if

that is not too stereotypical

for a middle aged white woman.

And a tequila shot on the side, please.

All right, coming right up.

Thank you.

One vodka tonic.

Thank you.

One shot of tequila.

Thank you very much, thank you.

And now it's a party.

Well, you still have a few

more drinks to catch up on this

with this guy on a Wednesday.

Woman trouble?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Something like that.

Figured.

Well, who needs the self-esteem

of a good relationship?

To tequila.

(Debra coughs)

I'll do another one, please,

and he'll have one too.

Okay.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Cheers.

(Debra coughs)

So what do you do?

Video production.

Really?

Don't look so impressed,

currently, I'm doing a series

of videos on the immaculate

city of Royal Oak.

And look at me, living the dream.

I had a dream of being an actress once.

Lived in LA, shot a

whole scene for a movie,

and they cut it.

What happened?

It didn't advance

the story, I guess, oh.

I'm gonna move a seat closer

and invade your space if that's okay.

Its fine.

I mean, why did you leave?

Why'd you leave LA?

Just life, I guess.

Life.

Well, I mean, you

should have kept doing it.

I can tell you got the

screen presence for it.

Yeah, right, at my age?

Age.

Come on.

And you're beautiful,

I'd put you in my movie.

An actual movie, that's

not like the other thing.

I'm not a Harvey Weinstein.

I'm sorry.

That was too much.

No, you're fine.

You're sweet.

You're clearly drunk.

Shame on the girl who broke your heart.

Yeah, well, she's not here anymore.

So you're filming a movie?

Well, writing the script.

Actually, it's really just ideas on paper.

But I can picture you as the lead.

What's it about?

What's it about?

There's a protagonist and the journey

and the journey's still being written.

It's fine.

I'm sure I am too old and haggard

for you to actually put me in your movie.

Okay, come on.

You are not old or haggard.

You're beautiful, deserve to

be seen on the big screen.

Says the guy who's like four drinks in

in a poorly lit bar.

I can't keep my eyes off you.

(door creaks)

That's my friend.

Friendship that is probably

older than you are.

Older than 27?

Close.

I'm Debra.

I am 40.

Travis.

40's not old.

You are closer to my daughter's age.

I'll see you around.

(gentle music)

These are like 100 for bucks.

It's a thank you present.

You know what would be an

even better thank you present?

Something more creative than 10 videos

of talking heads and cuts to slides.

(Jessica sighs)

You okay, Jessica?

You look tired.

Hunter and his buddies

kept me up all night.

Hunter and his buddies.

What was last night's

wild conspiracy theory?

Rehashing chemtrails with

some 5G birds, I don't know.

They're crazy.

(Travis chuckles)

This is a joke, right?

I wish.

You know, I think they

actually think birds are real

only because you can eat them.

(Travis chuckles)

I tell you what, I'll get you

some noise canceling

headphones for Christmas.

Or I could just move in with you.

Kennedy Automotive wants more info.

Tell you what, call

Kennedy Automotive back.

Let them know that I will be

able to get them the proposal

as soon as I actually have time to do it.

Hurry up, it's money.

My soul is crying for help.

You're good at it.

Look, it's a referral.

Just do it.

In other world news, Jessica.

I went out last night.

And?

And, and I met somebody.

Seriously?

Cut me some slack, all right?

I went in there originally

wanting to get drunk,

but then here she comes,

just strutting on then

looking all beautiful.

What's her name?

Debra.

Did you hook up?

No.

- Kissed?

- No.

- Did you get her number?

- No, no.

Does she exist? (Laughs)

How much did you have to drink?

Quite a bit. Tito had to

take my keys and cut me off.

I'm not gonna tell you how

to live your life, Travis,

but you fall so hard for girls.

I'm a hopeless romantic.

What can I say?

Every time you get your heart broken,

you go into this deep depression

and go all Howard Hughes

in the editing suite.

Well, if I didn't

have this editing suite,

I probably would've been

dove off the deep end by now.

Don't you think?

I mean, come on.

I was in love.

You're always in love.

And it's never reciprocal.

Even with Gabi.

I could tell two months before it ended

that she was trying to

find a way to escape.

But hey, I hope this

Debra chick works out.

Don't air quote me.

She exists, she's real.

I didn't drink that much to black out.

Give me some credit.

That's the thing about blacking out.

You don't know when you blacked out.

Write the damn proposal.

Sure thing, mom.

Anything else?

(thunder booms)

Hi.

Hey.

Closing up for the night?

I have this issue where

if I don't force myself

to leave my dreaded

office/editing suite/office,

I'll never get any sleep.

I asked Tito where I could find you.

I hope that's not too stalkerish.

It's the right amount of stalkerish.

What are you editing?

You wanna see?

Well, that would require you going back

into the dreaded

office/editing suite/office.

I willing to take the risk if you are.

(thunder booms)

So these are all my project files.

This is what makes up and consumes

the better half of my day.

Now this one right here,

this is a CTV spot.

Okay.

What is a CTV spot?

A CTV spot is a commercial

for, you know, for streaming.

Okay.

Here, I'll let you see this one,

because it's not horrible.

(gentle music)

This is good.

Travis, it's really good.

I mean, it's about as

artistic as doing taxes.

No, you shouldn't sell yourself short.

You're clearly good at what you do.

If anything, you should be in Hollywood

and I should be spending $10 to see a film

by Travis Gorman in the theaters.

I told you, you should

have stayed in LA.

You are a good actress.

No, I'm serious.

This is your calling.

I just can't get over

how beautiful you are.

Travis, I am old.

I have wrinkles.

I've had a kid and my body looks like it.

There's no way that someone your age

that looks like you do is

gonna think that I'm beautiful.

Okay, well, 13 years is nothing.

You really are beautiful.

Is this your play?

My play?

Mm-hmm.

Seduce an older, desperate woman.

Bring her to your office,

show off your skillset.

Go in for a home run.

But you came to me, remember?

Maybe you wanted me to go for a home run.

(gentle music)

I think that's first base.

(gentle music)

We don't even know each other.

We could stop.

(gentle music)

(upbeat music)

(bar goers laugh)

(upbeat music)

And that's why the American government

wants me to pay an extra

$12 for a hunting license.

It's crap.

I'm telling you, America

just wants more money

to spend on themselves.

You know that they decide to all salaries.

I think that we, the people,

should determine what they make.

(upbeat music)

You ever been in a fight before?

No.

You fought Lenny Freeman

in the seventh grade.

Okay, that wasn't even a real fight.

That was so long ago.

You punched him in the face.

You fretting about punching a guy

named Lenny in the face?

Man, anybody named Lenny deserves

to be punched in the face.

What can I say?

He was, he was asking for it.

He was going after his girl.

Little Lenny the woman stealer, huh?

(phone buzzes)

Way to go, Lenny.

(phone buzzes)

Yeah, look who it is.

You should take it.

Take it.

Yeah, that probably something important

or probably more disappointing news.

Excuse me.

He is such a workaholic.

I'd rather be an

alcoholic than a workaholic.

At least I'll be happy.

(upbeat music)

(Travis coughs)

Marty.

How you doing?

Good to hear from you.

No, no, I got a second, I can talk.

How can I help you?

Yep.

I see.

I'm sorry, what?

Okay.

I tell you what Marty,

I will give you a call tomorrow morning.

We can schedule a conference call

and we can discuss any possible deadlines

and a new action plan moving forward.

How's that sound?

Sounds good, all right, perfect.

Okay, I'll touch base with you later.

All right, good talking

to you. Have a good night.

(Travis sighs)

No, honestly, Marty, I really

think that me and Jessica

are perfectly capable of

running a two-man team.

But you know, if you really want to kick

an additional 500 into the budget,

that'll just buy you an

extra 60 minutes of B-rolls.

That way you can have

a much more complete,

much more flush production.

Again, it's up to you.

(knuckles rap)

Let me call you back, Marty.

(Travis sighs)

[Debra] Hi.

[Travis] Hello.

I know that I owe you an explanation.

I'm married.

Look, I know it's a

horrible thing that I did.

I just, you were so nice to me

and I haven't felt that

appreciated in a really long time.

So I couldn't help it.

I just feel this connection with you.

Okay, but if that's really the case,

then why didn't you say

anything before, Debra?

You're a married woman.

We're not off to a good start.

I know.

I never thought that I

would be unfaithful, I just

What's the issue?

I feel trapped, okay?

I hate my life and I

hate my life with him.

I honestly, I wish I could get out of

this marriage, but I can't.

Please don't hate me?

I don't hate you, Debra, okay?

I don't.

But I also can't just

be your cry for help.

Yeah, I know.

I mean, you are married, okay?

You're married.

Married.

How far would you really think

we were gonna get with this?

It can't be that bad, can it?

If I ever dared to pursue a divorce,

he would make sure that I got nothing.

This wasn't a cry for help.

It's a cry for attention and for intimacy.

Okay, but if you're

getting all that from me,

then what do you still

need to get from him?

My savings is his savings.

My house is his house.

If I leave, I have nothing.

I have no money, no place to live.

I haven't had a career ambition

since there were flip phones.

My only chance of escape is if he dies.

It's my only chance at

freedom and so I'm trapped.

Do you know what the

life expectancy age is?

70 something, right?

Van is 52, which means I

have 25 more years with him.

25 years.

That's basically your entire life.

Do you know what it's like

to have someone in your life

that you wish would die

just so that you could live?

And how it feels to even think

about something like that?

Okay, let's back up for a second.

I want a life again.

Okay, and I hear that, I do.

But there's gotta be

something in his marriage

that's still worth fighting for.

I don't need therapy, Travis.

Okay, but indulge me and

answer me just one question.

When did it all get bad?

Probably the very beginning.

I was young when we met.

It was on a short film.

He wrote and of course he directed.

I starred in it.

We got together and I got pregnant.

I was 21 at the time.

He was not a good writer and

was an even worse director.

When Olive was one, he decided

that we should move back here.

It slowly became a struggle

and then it got bad

and then it got worse.

My 20s weren't spent

going out and having fun.

It was PTA meetings and soccer practice

and doing my husband's laundry

and staying in so that he could go out.

You're my breath of fresh air.

(somber music)

She won't leave him.

Hates her husband, but she

won't f*cking leave him.

Listen, let me tell you about this guy

I met in college before Hunter.

Surprise, surprise, you

didn't meet Hunter in college?

Please.

The closest Hunter ever gets to college

is betting on brackets

and obsessing over a team

for a school he never went to.

Right, right, right.

Sounds like Hunter.

His name was...

It doesn't matter.

Anyways, we went on a couple dates,

screwed around, and that's it.

Sometimes relationships last 60 years,

sometimes 60 hours, 60 minutes.

Hell, sometimes 60 seconds.

But you have fun and you call it a day.

Look, I understand it

must be so easy for you

to just call it a day, but

I can't, Jessica, I can't.

Crazy as it sounds, I might actually

be falling for this woman.

Why?

Do you have some sort of savior complex?

I don't know, Jessica,

I don't know, okay?

I want that romance, that real love.

You know, the stuff that

you see in the movies.

It doesn't exist.

Not even in the movies.

"Titanic," Jack dies in the water.

"Casablanca," Ilsa gets

on the plane, Travis.

I sympathize with this

woman's crappy marriage,

Lord knows I hate mine, but

this is not a drama you want.

I can't comprehend people

that feel a certain

way about their partner

and yet still choose to

stay in their relationship.

Why don't you just leave him?

It's so easy to suggest it.

You know, he said I'd regret

it if I ever left him.

Regret it?

What, he implying that

he'd do something to you?

Honestly, I don't know what him

or his friends are capable of.

I can't trust him anymore.

Look, I appreciate that

perspective, Jessica, I do.

And just hear me out for a second.

You ever met someone that just

touched you deeply in ways

that you never thought possible?

And then the whole day, these

intrusive thoughts about

what your life could be

like with that person

just run rampart through your brain?

Are you high?

She's married.

Don't get involved any

more than you already are.

How would you feel if you found out

you were being cheated on?

How would you react?

(somber music)

Stupid.

Stupid.

Let's do it.

I want to see you.

(phone buzzes)

Hey.

[Debra] Van is making me go

to a dinner with his friends.

So your husband's name is Van.

Isn't that like Swedish or something?

[Debra] Travis.

Just say you can't go.

[Debra] It doesn't work like that.

It's part of the deal we

make when we say our vows.

This is the life that I'm trapped in.

Well, I mean, you could

just pretend to be sick.

[Debra] And then what, not

be here when he comes home?

Travis, this is starting to get risky.

If he discovers my infidelity,

he'll be humiliated

and humiliation leads to irrationality.

He would k*ll me if he found out.

Debra, I

[Debra] He's coming, I have to go.

Debra.

I don't know when I'll

be home, and don't wait up.

This is what you're

gonna be doing tonight?

Go out, call friends.

If you need some extra cash,

I can give you an advance

on your allowance.

I can't just call someone on

a moment's notice to go out.

It doesn't work like that.

I'm 40, not 21.

Maybe this is why you

don't have any friends.

It doesn't hurt to try.

I don't have any friends

because you won't let me see them

without making it into some huge ordeal.

Didn't you go out last week?

Yeah, and you called three times.

You showed up at the bar.

You practically carried me out of there.

We should go to my father's

cottage, thinking next week.

Sure.

We can get a few rounds in.

If you don't play, you

won't get any better.

I've never been good.

Because you never tried.

You always criticize me and

say that I'm taking too long.

I'm trying to help you.

I wanna get some fishing in too.

You can go shopping.

Peter's going.

I want me to spend the whole

time with him and Stella.

I hate the smell when

you get home from fishing.

I just thought it would be a great idea

getting drunk and stoned by

the bonfire near the lake.

Golfing, nature.

You said it'd be nice

for us to get away,

and then you just...

Sorry for trying.

Enjoy your story.

(upbeat music)

Oh yeah.

Now this is the party.

This is exactly what I need.

Don't you look about as happy as a pig

rolling around in sh*t.

What's this little fufu

concoction you got there?

It's a tequila sunrise.

A tequila sunrise.

Hey, I got a tequila sunrise too.

It's in my pants. (Laughs)

I'm gonna sit right here.

No, no, please do.

It's sanitized for your convenience.

You're welcome.

Where's Jessica?

How should I know?

Yo, barkeep!

Let me get like a Jack and Coke.

Thank you.

Hey, T, look.

Man indicted on assassination attempt.

Nice.

Man pays nearly $7,500 to an

assassin to m*rder his spouse

and make it look like a

kidnapping and robbery gone wrong.

That is some Hillary

type sh*t right there.

But you know, well, you gotta

get a good deal on that.

I know a couple nefarious

types that'll do it

for like, two, three.

Well wouldn't you wanna know why?

Oh, I already know why.

Man hates wife, wants out the marriage,

and instead of hiring a

lawyer, hires an assassin.

Probably cost less too, I'ma be real.

It's crazy 'cause I just didn't think

this kind of stuff actually happened.

All those crime shows that you watch

and you still living in La La Land.

Man, stuff like this happens all the time.

Like, there was this one story, right?

Patty Smith got a bunch of high schoolers

to k*ll her husband.

The problem, she got a

bunch of high schoolers

to k*ll her husband.

A bunch of 16-year-olds.

They talk, they brag and she got caught.

Right.

Yeah, seriously.

Oh yeah, true story.

Made a movie, two movies about it.

Mm-hmm.

The lesson, don't hire 16-year-olds

to do a m*rder on somebody.

So would you do it?

Granted if someone paid you.

Man, I have k*lled plenty of animals.

See, k*lling is easy.

The challenge with k*lling people though

is that they like to fight back.

I see a deer catch me in the blind.

They see me, first instinct is run.

I tell you, T.

People get k*lled all the time

and they never find the murderers.

Just a little common knowledge.

I had a client once.

He was a very, you know, clean cut,

straight laced kind of dude.

He ordered white milk on

our first lunch meeting.

Anyway, I finished his assignment

and then the day came, he was

supposed to drop off a check.

Never showed.

I figured, okay, write it off in taxes.

Then I turn on the TV the next day.

You know what it says on the news?

There he is gunned down

by police in the shootout.

As it turns out he was wanted

for the m*rder of his wife.

Not everyone gets away with it.

So you didn't get the check.

(cheerful music)

Act one, scene one.

Exterior, nighttime.

Woodsy wood area.

Then there's a k*ll

(knuckles rap)

(cheerful music)

Okay.

Hello to you too.

I can't stay away.

I think about you all the time.

Listen Debra.

You make me feel like I matter.

Travis, please don't reject me.

You ever feel like you

shouldn't do something,

but you just can't seem to stop?

I know exactly what you mean.

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)

Hey.

What are you thinking about?

What's on your mind?

I just hate going to his father's cabin.

There's a huge opioid problem up there

and cottages get broken into all the time.

Simple solution, just say you can't go.

Tell him go have a boys'

trip or some crap like that.

No, he doesn't trust me not to go.

I guess maybe if I said I

was going to my sister's

in Columbus, he'd probably let me do that.

What's the issue?

Do you think you're gonna cheat on him?

Stop.

I love you, Debra.

And I love you too, Travis.

And I wish that I could be

with you more than anything.

Maybe he'll have a heart attack

or fall down the stairs or something.

God, I shouldn't say stuff like that.

You know, if things were different,

I'd take you back to Hollywood.

Follow our dreams.

Yeah, right.

I'd be cast as like the neighbor's mom

on some cheesy sitcom.

Nah, you are a leading lady.

You know that movie idea

I was telling you about?

The one with the protagonist

going on a journey.

Mm-mm, and still being written?

Mm.

Well, look, I've been

adding more to it lately

and I've been thinking

about actually making it.

Starring Y-O-U.

What's it about?

What's it about?

Okay, see, it's about this

k*ller who gets out of prison

and one day he decides to go after

the woman that put him there.

But you don't see the k*ller

for most of the movie.

It's suspense, you know, think of it like,

think of it like "Jaws"

meets a serial k*ller.

Combination of creature slasher.

I would've taken you

for more of a rom-com guy

than serial k*ller.

That sounds dark and you wanna make it.

Yeah.

I mean, I've got all the equipment.

I've got my leading lady.

You're too much.

I'm serious.

And so Hollywood's the dream.

Absolutely.

You're going with me.

I'd love to go back,

give it another shot.

To not have to struggle.

To have half a million dollars

and just focus on my dream.

What are you talking about?

Van's insurance policy.

It's a $500,000 life insurance policy.

A half a million?

We could leave here together.

You and me.

You could make your movie.

We could have a life.

But I guess I'll just go

to his daddy's cabin instead.

You know, a few years

ago, one of his buddies

came home from dinner with his family,

discovered that their whole

house had just been ransacked.

Somebody broke in while they were gone,

went through everything, went

through the medicine cabinets,

snatched the electronics.

What if they had been

home when that happened?

Like what if that happens

to me and I'm home alone?

Look, don't say things like that.

But I mean, someone could just walk

through the front door.

k*ll me, sh**t me dead.

Debra, stop.

That'd get me out of this marriage.

Dreams of Hollywood

and dreams of being free.

Dreams of being with you.

(phone buzzes)

You have to go?

Yeah.

It's time to wake up.

(phone buzzes)

(g*ns bang)

(table cracks) JESSICA!

You know, I think I pay

you too much for what you do.

I do more than you think.

Do you remember Lacey Brennan?

Lacey, Lacey, Lacey Brennan.

High School, right?

Yeah.

I saw her last night.

And?

She's single.

No.

Oh, come on.

Jessica. I'm seeing somebody.

Well, this someone's not married.

Well, this someone's in love.

Travis, drop the old lady.

She's not old.

Older lady.

I can't believe you're still seeing her.

Yes, yes, Jessica, we're in love.

We've been seeing each other,

we've been, and guess what?

We're gonna live happily ever after.

Do you hear yourself?

What about her husband?

Is he cool with this?

Who cares?

You're delusional if

you think you're in love.

The only thing that you can love

in that short amount of time is a dog.

Are they at least separated?

No.

He's a little bit of a control freak.

She can't just pack up

and leave, all right?

He's mean to her, he's a*usive.

I can see you're not happy,

so nothing that I say matters right now.

What's the plan here, Travis?

Let her keep cheating until he finds out?

What if he's a nutcase?

What if he comes after you?

Because if he is as

controlling as you say he is,

that means that his wife is his property.

And that means that he

will do whatever it takes

to protect his property.

Look, hate break it to you, big sis,

but I am not going anywhere

from this woman no time soon.

Well it doesn't sound like he is either.

Look, Travis, I get it, you're an idiot.

But you need to end this.

Let her go.

(gentle music)

(gentle music continues)

You cannot show those

pictures to anyone.

What's gonna happen if I do?

Don't worry, I won't

show nobody the photos.

Can I ask you a question?

Sure, ask me anything.

Have you told anyone about us?

I might have mentioned

it to my sister, Jessica.

Really?

I mean, come on Debra, that's my sister.

She's been there my whole life.

She's like my best friend.

I mean, I tell her everything.

I can't lie to her.

Can I ask you a question?

Hold on.

What does she think?

Well, honest truth, I mean,

she thinks it's a bad idea

that I'm seeing a married woman.

And worst case scenario, what

if your husband finds out?

But back to my question.

Where do you see us down the road?

I don't, I don't know.

Well, Debra, I honestly think

it's time you and Van got a divorce.

I know, but

Let me finish, let me say it.

Like I want us to have a

future and a life together,

and just somewhere at

the end of that, married.

I mean, is that too much to

ask? Like I don't understand.

Like if you're really as

crazy about me as you say,

then shouldn't you want the same thing?

Hello?

Travis, I'm 13 years older than you.

Okay, he's 12 years older than you.

Yeah, but at some

point, I'm gonna slow down

and you're gonna get bored of me.

You're gonna start wondering

why you're spending

all your good years with some old lady.

You are not some old

lady, Debra, like you...

Me and you got a good thing going here

and I can't get this with nobody else.

(phone buzzes)

Van.

Wow.

Can we not do this right now, Van?

'Cause I'm out with Tabitha.

I'm doing what you

mentioned I should be doing.

Why would I have to tell you that?

Are you my parole officer?

Okay, Van.

Yeah, I'll stop and get it

so we have it for the trip.

And he hung up, didn't he?

Yeah, well, I mean, we hung up.

That's what I mean.

It's no goodbye, no be safe.

No I love you.

Well, no, that would

require actually showing

that you care about another person.

It's transactional, it's

not a show of affection.

If this is how you

feel about your husband,

then why stay married?

You don't understand.

I don't want to go home.

(somber music)

Where are you going?

The kitchen.

Refill this.

Are you happy?

That's a loaded question.

I say I'm happy, you don't believe me.

Or there's a follow-up question

that somehow entraps me.

Entraps you.

Or I say I'm not happy and

we get into a fight about it.

We have a good arrangement here.

Little more ice too.

(somber music)

Travis, man, what exactly

are you asking me to do?

Look, I'm not saying

it's you specifically

that needs to do this.

I'm just saying that if it

comes to it, if all else fails,

maybe you know someone that can.

So you love her, huh?

I do, I really do.

But the problem is, get

this, you're gonna love this.

She's married to this rich liberal type.

That means he probably don't got a g*n.

He's supposed to be alone this weekend.

She's going out of state to

visit her sister in Columbus.

Mm.

Look, I love her more than anything.

And I got a good thing going with her.

But in order for that to

continue, her husband needs to go.

That's sweet.

You know, love can make

people do many things.

Crazy things.

My question is,

why won't you?

Me?

No, no, no, no, no, no.

It can't be me.

But you can be the one

to pay someone to do it.

Hmm.

See, you know, in a lot of

ways, that's much more sinister.

All I want to do is set her free.

And the price of freedom?

How much are you willing to pay someone

to m*rder your girlfriend's husband?

2,000.

How about three?

So you know someone.

Are you willing to pay?

And if the answer is yes?

Then I know someone.

(Hunter laughs)

Hey man, I gotta say.

I didn't think you was this kind of dude.

See, I thought you was

more of a sip wine cooler

and Zoom call your therapist kind of dude.

Just make sure whoever

you get to do this

is smart with this execution.

A smart assassin.

That's a great idea, Travis.

I'm not playing with you, Hunter.

Whoever does this, they cannot get caught.

I'm gonna go ahead and write that down.

After you m*rder the

guy, don't get caught.

Are you serious, man, for real?

Really? Really?

I watch a lot of crime shows, okay?

Where the k*ller always messes up, okay?

There's always DNA, there's

evidence, forensics comes in.

The court case is a mess.

Travis.

I got this covered.

I know what I'm doing.

This, this ain't punching

little Lenny in the nose.

You get me?

(door creaks)

Whoa Woah

What the hell did you

ask my husband to do?

How do you know she's

not just using you, huh?

How do you know she's not

just feeding you lies?

Jessica, I don't know what else to do.

I don't know what I'm supposed to do.

Not this!

How'd you find out anyway?

Hunter isn't the type to keep a secret.

Especially when he's had a few.

Travis, he seriously think

about k*lling another person.

You're not gonna go

to the police, are you?

No.

Not because I shouldn't, because I should.

If you were anybody else, I

would get your a*s locked up.

But Hunter's not gonna do it.

I'm gonna go home, I'm gonna

tell him you were just kidding.

And that you were just

blowing off some steam.

Blowing off steam, right.

Right?

Look, Jessica, all I

was trying to do was just

No.

Gosh, you're such an idiot.

When did you become so stupid?

I don't know, Jessica, I don't know.

People do stupid things when

they're blindly in love.

Open your g*dd*mn eyes!

Okay.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I don't know what I was thinking.

You weren't.

You don't really think he

would've done it, do you?

It's Hunter.

Hunter is never in his right mind.

So for the right price,

he'd do just about anything.

When I had this conversation

with your husband,

he seemed like he really knew

what he was talking about.

I know.

He's a real character.

Man, I wish he was

this person when we met

'cause I would've dumped his a*s.

Man, if you know anyone

wanting to k*ll him,

just let me know.

Keep my ears open.

Excited?

Yeah, sure.

Beats staying around here.

Mm-hmm.

(somber music)

How's it going?

(somber music)

How's Columbus?

(somber music)

Okay.

Did I do something wrong?

(somber music)

Okay.

Anyways, I miss you.

(somber music)

Model, there we go.

Show them what Debra was

like when she was in LA.

[Debra] I mean, someone could just

walk through the front door,

k*ll me, sh**t me dead.

[Travis] Debra, stop.

[Debra] That'd get me

out of this marriage.

Dreams of Hollywood and

dreams of being free.

Dreams of being with you.

(somber music)

Hey, where you going?

I gotta clear my head.

(eerie music)

(eerie music continues)

(clock ticks)

(decoration thuds)

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

(tense music)

(Van pants)

(fist thuds)

(Van pants)

(Van groans)

(fist thuds)

(Van groans)

(fist thuds)

(Van pants)

No, please.

I'll give you anything.

No, no, please.

Please, no, no, no.

(g*n bangs)

(clock ticks)

(g*n bangs)

(clock ticks)

(g*n bangs)

(somber music)

Ma'am, are you sure there's

nobody we can call for you?

This is the man that

m*rder*d your husband.

Does he look familiar?

No, I have no idea who that is.

His name is Hunter Keplar.

Does that name ring a bell?

No.

Mr. Keplar resides in

the city just south of you.

Looks like he specifically came here today

to m*rder you and your husband.

Do you know why he'd want to do that?

No, I have no clue.

I don't know much about

my husband anymore.

We kind of live separate lives.

Does anybody know that you

guys came up here tonight?

I mean, I'm sure he bragged

to everyone in the office

that he was coming up here

and I know he had some friends

we were supposed to see

while we're here, but

But anyone that would...

No, no one comes to mind.

(somber music)

Are you sure?

Oh, god.

Okay.

Oh my.

(Jessica sighs)

Hey, you okay?

What's wrong?

It's Hunter.

He's dead.

He's dead?

How? What happened, Jessica?

He was shot.

Shot?

I didn't think he would get k*lled.

I just thought he'd get arrested.

What are you saying?

Hunter was k*lled trying to k*ll

your girlfriend's husband.

Okay, I need an explanation.

Right now, Jessica, start talking.

I didn't wanna get you in trouble.

I just needed to get rid of Hunter.

What do you mean get rid of Hunter?

Have you seen him lately?

He's unbearable.

It's like he's gone on this rabbit hole

of conspiracy theories and

he's never come back out.

I never gave Hunter any money.

I did.

I got the money out of our safe.

I didn't think he'd actually do it.

I told him you gave me an

envelope and I gave it to him.

He said he was gonna go out

of town to his bud's farm.

I used the Find A Friend

app, and I saw him there.

I thought the worst that

would happen is that

he try and he'd go to prison.

What the hell is wrong with you?

Why would you do that?

Weren't you just going off the other day

about the same damn thing?

You're gonna ruin everything

we built if you get caught.

There were never any

withdrawals from your account,

nothing to incriminate you.

He even left the envelope

on the nightstand.

I put it back in the safe.

There's nothing tying you to this.

It seemed like a good

opportunity to get rid of him

and maybe give you a

chance with this lady.

Van k*lled Hunter in his own house.

Clearly this would be self-defense.

No.

Van's dead.

Hunter k*lled him.

So who the hell k*lled Hunter?

Van's wife.

No.

No, no.

Debra's in Columbus,

out of state visiting her sister.

Maybe it was Van's mistress.

You know, he was a cheater.

Right.

I can't stand people who

cheat on their spouses.

What are you doing?

Well, my girlfriend's

husband was just k*lled,

so I should probably text her

and check on her, that means, right?

And say what?

As far as you know, none

of this has happened.

All you know is that my husband was k*lled

in a botched home invasion.

Wait for her to call you

and then think very hard

about what you're gonna say.

(tense music)

I guess if the police

start asking questions,

I could say that I had

an affair with Debra

and that Hunter was fascinated

with Van's lifestyle.

'Cause Hunter's crazy.

He did it all on his own.

Right, he saw an opportunity.

Yeah.

You expect for them to buy into this?

I hope so.

God, I'm glad you didn't

use that weapon on me.

Did you f*cking use me, Jessica?

I solved two problems at the same time.

But Travis, I swear, I didn't

know he was gonna do it.

I just wanted him to get

arrested so I had time to leave.

You could have always left him.

Could I?

Hunter is not the man he used to be,

and he wouldn't have thought

twice about k*lling me.

Ask Van if my fears are justified.

Earth to Travis.

What?

Need another?

No.

No thank you.

[Tito] All right.

Hey, Tito.

Yeah, yeah.

How do you know when

you've been ghosted?

I think having to ask

yourself that question

kind of gives you the

answer you don't want.

Yeah, that's kind of

what I was afraid of.

You called her?

No.

Text?

Yeah, a week ago.

And that's why I'm asking you

'cause I'm not sure if it's a good idea

if I should keep reaching out or not.

I would, I would.

I'd send her one more text.

And if nothing comes back,

it's time to cut her loose, man.

Yeah.

Done.

Well?

What'd you text?

Oh.

Okay, all right.

I said.

I said that I hope you're

doing okay and that I miss you.

Ever the romantic, Travis.

Well, I gotta test the waters.

Good luck, my friend.

Her husband died.

What?

He was m*rder*d.

Oh.

So we were having an affair.

But it was so more than that.

So the woman you were

screwing around with

had a husband and he was k*lled.

It's a little bit more

complicated than that.

Do I look like I'm a lawyer to you?

What, you had me fooled.

There's no such thing as

bartender-customer privilege, okay?

Tito, you think I had

something to do with it?

A woman you were screwing around with

was married and her

husband was k*lled, okay?

I'm just trying to

cover my a*s here, okay?

Tito

Before you drop another

bombshell sentence like that again.

Tito, it's not like that.

I didn't k*ll anyone.

Are you a suspect?

No.

They know who did it.

Well, well, then.

Maybe she's just getting

her affairs in order,

or, well, yeah,

not affairs like that,

you know what I mean.

Okay, so what do I do?

If I was you, I'd give

her some space, Travis.

A lot of space.

(thunder booms)

(phone dings)

(thunder booms)

(thunder booms)

Travis Gorman.

I don't know why this Hunter guy

k*lled my husband, detective,

but he's related to Travis.

It's his brother-in-law.

So Travis Gorman, like Gorman?

Gorman?

G-O-R-M-A-N?

Mm-hmm.

Okay.

And who's this Travis guy?

I admit that I was not a faithful wife.

I strayed once.

Just once.

I met Travis at a bar and we hit it off.

Are you married, detective?

Yes, ma'am.

22 years.

And you love her?

Oh yeah.

Well, I don't know about your love life,

but Van hasn't touched me in years.

For that, I was somewhat grateful.

When I met Travis, I just felt a spark,

something that I hadn't

felt in a long, long time.

It was an affair, detective, a mistake.

So you believe Travis

is involved with this?

I don't know.

If so, what would be his motivation?

Love.

Travis loves me.

He told me he would do

anything to be with me.

I just, I didn't think

he'd literally do anything.

But Ms. Davis, we know that.

Hunter's the one that k*lled your husband.

[Debra] Mm, he must

have got Hunter to do it.

Now why would Hunter do that?

People usually just don't go

and convince their brother-in-laws

to k*ll people and they go with it, right?

Mm-hmm.

So what would Hunter possibly gain

by k*lling your husband?

Huh, money?

Detective, Travis knew about.

Van's life insurance policy.

He kills Van for us to be together.

He gets both love and money.

What, Ms. Davis?

He really does love me.

He would do anything.

And the last time you talked to her?

Last time I spoke to Debra was,

I believe about a week ago.

I just wanted to check in on her

to see if she was doing okay.

Nothing else, that's all.

You love her?

Still?

Still? Yes.

So she hasn't been in

contact in about a week.

You don't think she's subtly saying

Detective, I'm a hopeless romantic.

What can I say?

Right.

Travis, what would you do with $1 million?

$1 million?

Yeah, $1 million.

Oh, I could do a lot with $1 million.

I mean, I could pay off some

debts, upgrade my equipment.

I mean, maybe sh**t something

a little more exciting, like a film.

You know, Debra was an actress from LA.

I'd make her a star.

But what about you, detective?

I'm sure there's a plethora

of things that you can upgrade

if you had $1 million at your disposal.

Van Davis had a $1

million insurance policy.

That surprises you?

She told me it was only half a million.

So you knew there was an insurance policy.

I mean, she might have mentioned it.

Travis, I know you personally

didn't k*ll Van Davis,

but you have motive to

possibly hire somebody,

maybe like a brother-in-law,

fancied firearms.

Okay, but I didn't.

Look at me.

Why would I do anything like that?

It's not like I get any of

the insurance money, you know?

But Debra does.

And you were seeing her.

With Van Davis out of the picture,

you guys can be together with $1 million.

Detective.

I don't care about the money.

Would it had been nice, absolutely.

She was afraid to divorce her husband

because she was scared she was

gonna be left with nothing.

But I told her that she

could make a clean break.

She needs nothing from him.

All her needs, wants and desires,

anything she could ask

for would be on my behalf.

That is all.

So you and Hunter never talked about this.

Well, not in a serious way.

We entertained a light conversation

about it in the bar once

because we saw something on TV.

How much money do

you think it would take

for Hunter to k*ll somebody?

Are we talking 2,000, 5,000?

What are we talking about here?

What's the number?

I don't know because I

never talked to him about it.

You know, that guy on TV,

you know he paid someone

$7,500 to m*rder his spouse.

It's quite a bit of money.

It's quite a bit of money.

Let's look back here.

So, you know, as a hopeless

romantic, as you stated,

that do anything to get her

out of that relationship,

take care of her, and

write this big budget film.

Bring her as an actress.

You know, this $1 million you could get,

I mean, I believe you'd do anything

for the one that you love.

Well, let's take a step back.

So Hunter, your brother-in-law,

gets k*lled by this woman,

Debra, that you have an affair with,

and you don't see

anything wrong with that?

Stop.

Debra k*lled Hunter?

Who do you think k*lled Hunter?

Debra was in Ohio visiting her sister.

I mean, I knew that a woman k*lled Hunter,

but I thought maybe it

was Van's side piece.

Right?

Debra k*lled Hunter.

(tense music)

[Jessica] You didn't tell

him what I told you, right?

I told the detective

that we saw a story on TV

about a husband who hired an

assassin to m*rder his spouse.

I did not once say that

me and Hunter entertained

a serious conversation

about murdering Van.

Why don't you call a lawyer?

I didn't think I needed to, Jessica.

I'm not guilty.

Oh, right, because only

guilty people need lawyers.

All right, all right, just let me think.

Yes, yes, let's do that.

Let's think.

That's good idea.

It sounds like a setup.

A setup?

Okay, let's make it make sense.

She just strolled on into Tito's one day,

looked at me and said, "Hey, I can seduce

this poor little schmuck and

get him to m*rder my husband."

Well?

Well, I didn't wanna get anyone k*lled.

Travis, they're trying

to tie this all together.

Listen, if the police approach me again,

I will take the fall.

No!

Jessica, listen to me.

This is my mess.

It's my situation.

I got Van k*lled.

Look, you were right.

I should have never gotten involved

with a married woman in the first place,

and I did not listen.

You'll go to jail.

Oh well, hopefully I don't

fall blindly in love in there.

That's not funny.

(phone buzzes)

Oh, look at that.

Kennedy Automotive calling

probably to reject the proposal.

That's the spirit.

Yeah, I way overbid.

This probably isn't even gonna happen.

I was gonna say

something when I saw that.

Why?

I don't know.

Maybe another ad about

another d*uche bag car salesman

smiling into the camera rambling about,

"Model year car pickups, must go,"

was a little too soul-sucking.

You love that stuff.

Not this stuff.

Travis Gorman. What can I do you for?

No, I got a second, I can talk.

Uh-huh.

I see.

No, no, no, thank you.

I am thrilled about this.

I will be expecting an email

with all of the paperwork.

All right.

Talk to you soon.

Okay.

[Jessica] That was fast.

Yeah, Kennedy Automotive

accepted our proposal.

The proposal, 150,000

for the fiscal year.

Yeah, I guess apparently

they're sending over

the paperwork as we speak.

Well, don't be so happy about it.

$77,000?

It's a $1 million policy.

Last year, he took out a

loan against the principal.

What does that mean?

It's like a loan, but except the bank.

The individual can borrow money

from their life insurance policy

and pay it back in installments

like any other loan.

And he did this?

Why?

I mean, I had no idea that he did this.

I can't say.

You're our lawyer.

Not his lawyer.

You're our lawyer.

Look, Van is dead.

Whatever he may or may not have done,

he doesn't have to answer for it anymore.

It was a payoff.

And he would've paid it off eventually

if he lived to be another 20 years.

Just tell me.

Van had an affair

with a woman from Akron.

She got pregnant and she

threatened to reveal everything.

So he gave her $1 million

so it would all go away.

Such a noble thing to do.

Well he thought if he hadn't done it,

that it would ruin his

part of the business,

his marriage, everything.

He thought it was the right thing to do.

The right thing being

cheating on his wife

or impregnating his mistress

or pilfering his life insurance policy?

Maybe the right thing

to do is the wrong phrase.

There goes any shred of guilt

that I felt about my infidelities.

So $77,000?

Well, minus a few nominal

administrative expenses on our end.

There's other financial considerations.

I'm assuming you know

about the second mortgage.

Come and visit the

beautiful downtown area

and experience all of the...

Crap.

Damn it.

Hey.

Can we talk?

I don't know where to begin.

Okay, then.

Let me start.

Did you actually love me

or were you just using me?

Did I love you?

That's a fair question.

I never stopped, that's why I'm here.

With you, it felt like the movies

where the two leads fall in love

and live happily ever after.

What do you want from me?

I don't want anything from you

other than to spend the

rest of my life with you.

Look, my husband died

and I didn't expect it.

I didn't know how to handle it

and I just needed some time.

You saved me. Travis.

I love you.

No.

What?

Debra, I've mulled on this for a minute.

I've wondered, what would I say?

What would I even feel if I saw you again?

And now that you're here,

I don't feel anything.

My husband died.

I was nearly attacked.

I'm sorry if I didn't rush

right over here to see you.

What would that have looked like anyway?

Why was that such a hard thing to say?

'Cause you know what it

seems like, and it seems like

you got your million-dollar

insurance check

and that you didn't need me anymore.

You don't actually believe that, do you?

You shot him.

He shot my husband.

You told me you were

gonna be at your sister's.

Yeah, and plans change.

I told you what Van was like.

You know, it almost seems

like you were gonna k*ll me

after I k*lled him.

Once upon a time, I met a man in a bar

who gave me the time of day.

And he made me feel things

that I hadn't felt in a very long time.

I was trapped and he saved me.

Okay.

And here I was thinking

that you actually meant

the things that you said to me.

That you love me.

I did love you, once.

But not anymore, Debra.

I don't believe you.

You saved me.

I realized what you did

for me and you still do.

You still love me.

You'll see.

(tense music)

I do miss him a little.

No, I don't.

I was just used to him being around.

Hey, well look, if you get bored,

you know you're always more than welcome

to roll with me, all right?

I'm always down for Tito's.

I don't know, I'm thinking

somewhere a little more social.

(phone dings)

g*dd*mn.

Jeez.

I swear it's been nonstop

with this woman all last week.

Yesterday it was 11 times.

Today it's eight.

(phone dings)

Nine.

That doesn't include DMs, text messages.

This woman is out of control.

Uh-uh, and this literally gone from.

Hallmark to "Fatal Attraction" real quick.

What does it say?

"Apparently you're not interested.

Sorry to bother you."

Seriously?

That's not at all what it says.

Here's what it really says.

"Answer my calls.

I won't be ignored.

You won't ever ignore me again, Travis."

And then she sent like

three exclamation points

and a long paragraph.

Uh-uh, and that's literally

Glenn Close right there.

Look, I don't know what it is,

but it's like lately I've

just been getting this feeling

like somebody's watching me.

Like I went to the grocery store yesterday

and I swear she was there.

Like I saw her for a split second

and then she just disappeared like Batman.

You right.

People never shop at grocery stores.

Okay, how about this?

When I went to my car, I seen one

that was identical to

hers and it just sped off.

Yeah, cars never drive in a parking lot.

Jessica, will you

please take me seriously?

What am I supposed to do,

get a restraining order?

I mean, it wouldn't hurt,

but it's not gonna stop her.

But hey, at least if they find you

chopped up in the woods,

they know who did it.

Think you funny?

Yeah, I do.

(phone buzzes)

Oh my god.

She's calling again.

Okay, don't piss her off.

Look, you crazy psychotic b*tch.

You better stop calling my

brother or so help me God

me and you gonna have a real problem.

[Debra] Jessica.

That wasn't nice.

That wasn't nice at all.

(phone beeps)

Feel better?

No.

We gonna go home and

change 'cause we going out.

I'm sick of this b*tch ruining my mood.

I need a drink.

How do you think I feel?

You're not the one that's

gotta deal with her.

(tense music)

(upbeat music)

Let's dance.

No, dance?

Please, have you seen me dance?

Exactly, I need a good laugh.

(phone dings)

Ugh, what is she saying?

Well, apparently, according to her,

I will never find anyone that loves me

like she does in here.

Wait, she knows where you are?

Yep.

At your six.

My six?

She's cute.

Jessica, this woman's

really freaking me out.

I don't know what I'm supposed to do.

I don't know.

You got all the answers.

No, I don't.

And this is really becoming a buzzkill.

You wanna just get out of here?

Yeah.

(upbeat music)

(Jessica laughs)

Oh.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey, Gabi.

Hey.

Do you mind if we talk for a second?

Just give me 60 seconds.

I won't be weird, I promise.

Hey, I'm gonna head out.

It was so good seeing you, Gabi.

[Gabi] It was good seeing you too.

Text me, all right?

Yep.

What?

I owe you an apology.

Look, I understand looking

back how I came off,

you know, it's very off-putting,

it's negative and it

Travis, you came to my job.

You scared me.

Like, what was that?

I know, and I get it, trust me.

I understand, I'm not saying

anything I did was right.

I'm not trying to justify anything I did.

It's just when you really love some...

When you feel as strongly about somebody

the way I felt for you, you

tend to miss over things.

And you just create red flags.

You don't realize that you're actually

causing more harm than you are good.

And for that, I'm sorry.

I am sorry.

Thank you for that.

You're welcome.

I'd offer to buy you a drink,

but I get the impression

you just wanna put

all of this behind you.

Yeah, I do.

All right.

So I'll see you around?

Walk with me.

I'm this way.

Travis.

One drink.

My roommates gonna be so pissed

when she finds out why I was out so late.

Hey, look.

Real fast.

Look, I had fun and it

was good to see you.

It was.

But if you want things to go any further,

I'm not gonna be the one calling

and texting and hitting you up.

You gotta reach out to me.

And what if I don't?

Well, if you don't, then that's okay.

And what if I do?

If you do, then that is fine too.

Oh, quick thing.

Last time I saw you, who was that

that came into your job?

Ryan? The DoorDash guy?

Yeah, you did too much.

All right.

Have a good night.

Good night, Travis.

Get home safe.

You too.

(g*n clanks)

Oh my god, oh my god.

Get out.

What do you want?

You can have my car.

I don't want your car.

Travis is mine.

You can have Travis, please.

I saw that look in your eye.

[Gabi] What look?

I know that look in your eye.

What look? We're just friends.

He's mine!

You can have him, please.

Go.

Go where?

[Debra] Open it.

In the trunk?

[Debra] Get in.

Okay.

Please.

Please don't k*ll me.

You can have him, please.

Honey.

I know.

Please.

Please don't hurt me.

Please.

(Gabi pants)

(tense music)

Travis.

Got a minute?

Detective.

What brings you by?

Gabrielle Boyce.

Ex-girlfriend of yours, right?

Yes.

When's the last time you seen her?

I believe the last time I seen Gabi

was two nights ago at the club.

Have you talked to her since?

Honestly, detective, I don't think

she wants anything to do with me.

To reconcile things 'cause

we had a falling out

the last time we were in person,

I told her if she wants to see me again,

she's more than happy to hit me up.

But you know how these things go.

I'm probably never gonna

hear from that girl again.

Do you know where she's at?

I have no idea, detective.

Now if you'll excuse me,

I would like to use the

bathroom and get on with my day.

Just hold on one second.

We can continue this in

there if you want to.

Travis, last time she was

seen, she was seen with you.

Well, have you talked to Debra Davis?

Now why would I talk to Debra Davis?

Because she was there.

This woman, she keeps stalking me,

harassing me, following me around.

She would not leave me alone.

- The last time we talked,

you were in love with this Debra Davis.

That was then, things changed.

I want nothing to do with this woman.

Mr. Gorman.

You have a lawyer?

Do I need one?

You probably should have a number.

We'll be talking.

(phone buzzes)

Jesus, Debra, this is ridiculous.

Third time today.

Look, Debra, you need to stop calling.

[Jessica] Help me!

[Debra] For your sister's sake,

you'll want to come see me.

(phone beeps)

Wait, wait.

Hello, hello? Jessica!

(knuckles rap)

Hey babe.

How are you?

What, what, what?

Where's my sister, Debra?

Where's Jessica? Where'd you put her?

What'd you mean?

Hello?

Hey, I just opened a bottle of wine.

It's perfect timing.

Where's my sister, Debra?

You know, I don't know.

We haven't been seeing her in a while.

Let's host her for brunch soon.

Debra, where is my sister?

I-

Jessica!

[Debra] I can make

that frittata that you

Jessica.

[Debra] Loved.

[Travis] Hello?

Jessica.

We can get coffee from

that place down the street.

Where did you put my sister?

Jessica?

I just came in here.

What are you doing?

Where's my sister, Debra?

Where is she?

Where'd you put my sister, Debra?

Where is she, where is she?

Hello?

[Debra] Travis.

What?

(bat thuds)

(eerie music)

Hey there, sexy.

What?

(Travis grunts)

Where's Jessica?

What'd you do with her?

That's a great question.

Here, check this out.

[Jessica] You better

stop calling my brother

or so help me God

- I recorded that.

- No, no, no.

[Jessica] Real problem.

And then just some light editing.

(Travis grunts)

(Travis sighs)

What do you want from me?

Whoa, whoa.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

You're not really gonna sh**t me, are you?

Well, I don't want to sh**t you.

Travis, I love you.

You had my husband k*lled,

but then you abandoned me.

You needed my money

until you got your own.

That is not how you treat

someone that you love.

You rejected me and I

hate feeling rejected,

even more than I hate feeling trapped.

So here's what I'm thinking.

Travis Gorman breaks into my home

to try to finish what his

brother-in-law just couldn't do.

And just like Hunter?

Just like Hunter, you fail to.

You're not thinking straight.

You're not thinking clearly.

I tried to tell you so

many times that I loved you,

that we belong together.

But I suppose it's just like

what you said to me, right?

Love is blind.

It makes you act a little

irrational sometimes.

I did, I did.

I really meant it, I really did.

I really fell for you, Debra.

I meant everything I said,

Oh Travis, you're so sweet.

And I felt things with you

that I hadn't felt in a decade.

But that freedom just led to another trap.

Why won't you help me be free?

You don't have to k*ll me.

You don't have to k*ll me.

You don't, just let me go.

You don't have to do this.

Don't you see?

It has to end this way.

All the great love stories, they don't end

with a happily ever after.

Romeo and Juliet, Jack and

Rose, Christian and Satine.

It's the Hollywood dream.

Wait, okay, just,

wait, no, no, Debra, Debra, Debra!

(g*n bangs)

(Travis screams)

Now I'm going to untie you

and sh**t you one last

time, the fatal shot.

Hey Debra.

I love you.

I don't believe you anymore.

(phone dings)

Oh, look who it is.

Big sis is here.

Don't, don't.

Make one noise and she'll

end up worse than you.

Jessica.

Have you seen my brother?

No, I haven't seen him in a while.

Is there anything else

that I can help you with?

If you see him, you call me.

Of course.

I really hope you find him.

Bye-bye now.

(Travis groans)

(chair clanks)

(Travis breathes heavily)

(Travis groans)

Travis.

Sweetheart, what are you doing?

Give me that, give me that.

You are just being so silly.

So you can still be the savior.

Your sister, she's fine.

Unlike that club hoe that you

were with the other night.

What'd you do to Gabi?

Oh, Gabi.

Was that her name?

Wrong place at wrong time, I suppose.

You k*lled her.

You're supposed to love me.

Not someone like her.

(car horn beeping)

Travis.

Travis.

(Travis screams)

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

(Travis screams)

Is she hurting you?

(car horn beeping)

We gotta get outta here.

- How'd you get in here?

The egress window.

I gotta get you out of here.

No, no, no, no.

She's got a g*n.

I don't care, I'm not leaving you.

(car horn beeping)

She's coming, she's coming, go.

Go, hide.

(Travis groans)

Just go.

Stand up.

Stand up!

(Travis groans)

(Travis groans)

Last chance.

It's not too late.

Dreams of Hollywood.

Dreams of being free.

Dreams of being together.

What do you say?

They're just dreams.

(eerie music)

(bat thuds)

Jessica, no!

No.

She's not worth it.

My brother's the nice one.

I didn't get that gene!

(fist thuds)

Well, I guess you could

say you two have met now.

Jessica, Debra.

Debra, Jessica.

We gotta explain that.

Explain what?

Bye-bye, Debra.

We won't miss you.

Hey, chill on her.

She's been through enough.

You lucky I found you.

You weren't at the office.

No phone calls, nothing.

So thank God for.

Find A Friend.

- Find A Friend, yep.

Appreciate you calling.

Thank you for arresting

that psycho b*tch.

And my condolences.

Thank you, but my husband

wasn't the man he used to be.

The man I married died a long time ago.

Hey Travis, we found Gabi's car.

Did you?

Well, she just confessed to me

that she actually k*lled Gabi.

Well, it's under investigation.

We're gonna compare the

principle when we get him in.

Been a pleasure.

Thank you.

Thank you for everything.

Most definitely.

You know, all this,

maybe you should write a movie about it.

Who will believe this?

Right.

I'll send Detective Brody

over to get a statement.

Thank you, detective.

Yeah, whatever.

Thanks for saving my black a*s.

You're welcome.

But just promise me one thing.

What?

You won't put me

through this sh*t again.

Well, trust me, I'm done.

Look, I'm just gonna

finish writing my script

and then I'm gonna go

and actually film it.

And you, little miss,

as sole employee of

Travis Gorman Productions,

it is your job to make

sure I am not distracted,

I'm kept focused, or I'm docking your pay.

- Shut up.

- Ow.

What?

[Detective Brody] Travis Gorman?

Yes.

Are you ready to give your statement?

I am now.

I'm Travis, by the way.

Detective Brody.

Detective Brody.

Nice to meet you.

Oh, hell no.
