Infidelity Can Be Fatal (2023)

[bunniefuu]

What am I supposed to do now?

I'm sorry, Mrs. Cutler.

I know these are hard to see.

20 years of marriage.
20. Thrown away for what?

A cheap fling?

I have leave him now, I
mean... I have to leave him.

Now, Mrs. Cutler, that's...
That's really not for us to say.

Well, what do your
other clients do?

Some people leave,
some people stay.

Everybody reacts differently.

The main thing right
now, Mrs. Cutler,

is that you have
all the information,

which means you
have all the power.

Power? Do I look
like I have power?

Just because you're hurt
doesn't mean you're powerless.

You're armed with
everything you need

to make an informed decision.

So you hold all the cards.

I just knew that he was
messing around behind my back.

I knew it. But now
that I know for sure...

I just feel so worthless.

You are not worthless.

Hey, you were smart
enough to come in here

and ask a question you maybe
didn't want the answer to.

But you did it.

And that takes
guts. And strength.

And yes, being betrayed
by somebody you love,

somebody you thought
you knew; that hurts.

But that is not on you.

That is on him.

It is always on them.

Men cheat;

they break promises, but
now, you get to decide,

is this a man that you
can learn to trust again?

Or do you move on,
knowing what you know now?

You stand in that power

and you make that
decision for yourself.

You're right. I've
done nothing wrong.

No, you didn't.

Never take the fall for
someone else's wrongdoing.

I have a lot to think about.

Thank you.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

You've been helpful.

- 10 bucks says she stays.
- Nah.

She's gonna bleed him dry.

- Lucy Thompson?
- Who's asking?

My name is Clive Cassel.
You came highly recommended.

Yes, Mr. Cassel. I believe

I spoke to your
assistant. That's right.

What can I do for
you, Mr. Cassel?

- Please, call me Clive.
- What can I do for you, Clive?

I think my wife is
having an affair

and I would need
your help proving it.

It's not always the
man who cheats...

Of course.

Uh, please, have a seat.

August, aren't you
going to join us?

No, I've got an
interview to get to.

You can bring me
up to speed later.

Sure.

Can I get you a coffee?

Please.

Adriana was my
interior designer.

We met shortly after I
sold my first start-up.

We've been together just
under eight years now.

The first six,
happy. The rest...

Well, I'm here, aren't I?

It was the closest I'd ever
come to love at first sight.

And now, she's got me wondering

whether she ever
loved me at all.

A lot of people wonder that

when they suspect their
spouse is cheating.

Right.

So, what initially made
you question her fidelity?

Oh, the usual stuff, I guess.

Gradually, throughout the years,

I could sense her pulling away.

I know I can take some
of the blame for that,

I travel a lot for work
and she's always busy too.

It's hard to find
time to be together.

But when we do make the
time, it's... different.

Different how?

Well, for starters,
we stopped having sex.

And she became difficult
to get a hold of,

screening my calls,

she started having private
conversations behind closed doors.

She never used to do that.

She's an interior designer.

What could possibly
be so confidential?

Do you need me to continue?

No. From the sounds of it,
you're completely justified

in feeling the way
you do. Oh, thanks.

It's nice to know I'm
not losing my mind.

You're not. In my experience,

it's always best to
trust your instincts.

Well, it'll be a relief to
finally get to the bottom of this.

Whatever the truth is.

I understand.

So, how does this work? Do
I have to sign something?

Uh, do you have any
questions for me?

Am I the first investigator
you've met with?

No. I met with Rudy
Davis last week.

- Oh, Rudy. How'd that go?
- He's a hack.

- Wasn't gonna say.
- I've done my research.

I've explored a few
other options and...

I want you.

What makes you so sure?

Let's just say I'm
trusting my instincts.

I'll have August
send over a contract

and we'll go from there.

Wonderful. Thank you.

- Hey, Cami.
- Happy almost birthday.

Do you have to remind me?

What would you do without me?

Not have a birthday
party, for starters.

Oh, don't be such
a party pooper!

This is your 35th! We have
to do something special.

I've kind of invited
someone I want you to meet.

You know I don't do setups.

Look, sweetie, I know
you don't trust anyone.

I get it. You're exposed
to a lot of bad guys

doing what you do every day.

But, not everybody cheats.

I mean, just look
at Charles and I.

If you just let someone
in, just for once,

maybe you can be
as happy as we are.

How bad could it be?

If I'm wrong, I will
leave you alone.

No more setups.

Hello? You there?

Alright, fine. You
can invite him.

Yes!

But if he turns out

to be another dud,
you leave me alone?

Scout's honor.

- I'll see you Friday.
- Love you!

Love you too.

- Who you texting?
- Just Lucy.

You ever meet Adriana or
Clive Cassel at the CATC ball?

Not that I know of, why?

Must be for a case or something.

Uh, I got to get to work.

Hey.

I love you. Love you, too.

Hey! Uh, just my
usual. And uh,

a round for my friends.

I can't believe it,
she's wearing a dress.

Nice. I should set you up
on blind dates more often.

No, you shouldn't.
This was so much work.

- Can you grab...?
- Yeah.

- Happy Birthday!
- Happy Birthday, Lucy.

You guys!

I love them! These
will come in handy!

Thank you both so much.

So, tell me about
Mr. Wonderful. What? Remi?

Well, he's... He's...

He's wonderful.

Unless you're already
spoken for, that is.

I'm pretty sure he's kind
of the monogamous type.

Oh, that is August,
my new associate,

wishing me a happy birthday.

He has been a lifesaver,

I honestly don't know how
I did anything without him.

Thank you.

Well, cheers.

To best friends. Thank
you guys for doing this.

- We love you, Lucy.
- Cheers.

So, seriously, tell
me about this guy.

What's wrong with
him? Why is he single?

Well, I occasionally snore,

casually drink and I may
have a slight shoe fetish.

Uh, well, those look like
regular old shoes to me.

I like her.

Remi.

- Lucy.
- Nice to meet you.

Well, there it is,
ladies and gentlemen.

Love at first slight.

Hey, I'm just really glad the two
of you got off on the right foot!

- Ugh!
- Wow.

- Yeah.
- What?

Well, what do you think?

He's nice, right? He likes you,
he asked me for your number.

I will admit, I had a good time.

So, you gonna see him again?

Charles can 100 % vouch for him.

- Cami, I don't know.
- Take a chance!

Life is full of unknowns, but
risks like this are worth taking!

Lucy, how many times
do I have to tell you

they are not all bad
guys? Okay! Fine!

If you stop badgering me, then
I'll go out with him again.

Now wasn't that easy?

Your chariot awaits.

Ladies...

Thank you.

Sorry, boss. Didn't
mean to scare you.

- That lunch?
- Yeah.

- Then, I won't fire you.
- Thanks.

If you need anything else,
I'll be at the office.

Thank you!

Where are you going?

And who might you be?

Surprise!

Thank you for meeting me.

Of course.

What are you drinking?

Uh, I really shouldn't.

I'm charging you by
the hour, remember?

Uh... Manhattan.

On me.

Thanks.

So, uh...

Sorry to say I've been
tailing Adriana for a week

and I have nothing
to show for it.

Oh?

There's no suspicious activity.

Her phone log is clean,

she goes to and
from work most days,

consultations, a
homecoming party...

I don't know what to tell you.

I don't think you
need to keep me on.

Well, I appreciate your honesty.

Thanks.

But, I want you to stay on.

You would?

She's up to something.

You've only been on
the case for a week.

I'm sure if you stay on
longer, something will come up.

Call it intuition.

You really don't trust her.

Well, a wise woman once told
me to follow my instincts.

Typical.

Someone you know?

No.

Turns out, I don't
know him at all.

And what does that mean?

You don't want to know.

Try me.

Okay. Um... We met last week.

Thought he was interested.

Well, for what it's worth,
he's obviously an idiot.

Thank you. But I'm the idiot.

I let my friend convince
me to let my guard down

despite my better
judgement, I did.

Serves me right.

No one deserves to be deceived.

I know that better than anyone.

Look at what I do.

Right.

So, what got you
into all of this?

Private investigating?

Well...

My dad left when I was little.

Ran off with his secretary,
believe it or not.

Blindsided my mom,
left her with nothing.

Just seemed like the
best way to make sure

it didn't happen
to someone else.

- So, it's personal.
- Yeah.

That and I always thought
I had k*ller instincts.

Until now, that is.

Oh hey, don't let this guy
make you doubt yourself.

We all misjudge people
once in a while.

I should have known better.

This is why I don't date.

Ever?

I always saw trust
as a weakness.

That's a little harsh,
don't you think?

This coming from the guy who
asked me to follow his wife?

I'm sorry. That
was uncalled for.

No, don't apologize,
you're right.

Well, I should get going.
Thank you for the drink.

- Stay.
- I really shouldn't.

Don't make me eat alone.

So, you don't eat alone.

What's that about?

Oh I didn't say I don't.

I just prefer not to.

What? Is that so
hard to believe?

I don't know, I
just had you down

as the independent type of guy.

Oh no, you've got me all wrong.

Total codependent.

- Really?
- I'm kidding.

Though, I'm starting to think
no one is as independent as you.

How do you figure?

You live alone, you
don't date ever,

you see trust as a weakness.

Okay. Point taken.

But come on, there must
be someone you can trust.

Cami.

We've been best
friends since college.

She's been by my side
despite my... intensity.

Through thick and
thin, no matter what.

For years it was me and
Cami against the world.

Was?

She married her husband
Charles a few years back.

Charles?

And how do we feel
about Charles?

At first, I had my doubts,
as you can imagine.

But he's actually become
a really good friend.

And they're great together.

They're like the perfect couple.

If there's anyone who
could convince me that...

Never mind. What?

No, it's nothing. It's stupid.

- Come on, say it.
- No. Really.

You know I won't let up.

You are shockingly persistent.

I was just gonna say,

if there's anybody who could
make me believe in true love,

it would be them.

That was even sappier out loud.

I think it's nice.

I'm starting to think you're more
of a romantic than you let on.

You're sure it was him?

- Positive.
- Damn, Luce. I'm sorry.

I totally misjudged him.
Yeah well, I did too.

I'm just glad it ended before
it even started, you know?

What were you doing at
The Waverley, anyway?

I was meeting a client.

At The Waverley? Fancy.

Yeah, well, he insisted.
Actually, he um...

He made me feel better
about the whole thing.

We had dinner,
talked. It was nice.

Having dinner with a client?

I never would've
thought I'd see the day.

Like I said, he insisted.

Hey, Luce.

Cami mentioned a
Cassel the other day,

is that the client?

His name is Clive.

I don't know, there's
like something about him.

I just feel like
I can talk to him.

Are you sure this is
a good idea, Lucy?

Fraternizing with a client?

He's obviously
going through a lot.

Maybe you should just
move away from this one.

What are you talking
about? A job's a job!

They just had dinner.
What's the big deal?

He's a married man, Cami.

What do you even know
about this guy anyway?

She's a professional, babe.

She's done her due diligence.

Right, Luce?

Obviously.

Look, I gotta get ready work.
I'll talk to you guys later.

Bye.

What?

I really don't think
it's a good idea.

She knows what she's doing.

You're right.

Okay.

Love you.

Oh, hey, I've got
that meeting tonight.

So I'm gonna be
home late. Okay?

- Yup. Love you too.
- Bye.

Have a good day!

Good work everyone.
Keep it up.

Let's go! Let's go! Train
hard, let's go! Again!

Alright, let's go, come on.

Hard, let's go.
Come on, train hard.

Cross, jab, cross, jab. Come on!

Cross, jab, cross, jab.

One, two, three, four!
Good, keep going.

Come on, come on!

Hey, Clive, you
made it. Come in.

- Sorry I'm late.
- It's all good.

Alright, let's go.

Come on, guys, let's go!

Come on, guys.
Let's keep training!

Let's go, let's go, come on!

Train hard, let's go, come on!

Ten more, come on!

Next combination.

Let's go, Lucy! Come on, hard!
Come on! Don't slack off.

Come on! 10 more! 10 more!

Let's go!

Okay, listen up,
time to pair up.

Try and team up with someone you
haven't worked with yet, okay?

Let's go, find somebody.

Let's go, come on,
don't waste time.

Hey!

So what do you say? Partners?

- Sure.
- Alright.

Jab, cross! Again,
two more times.

Jab, cross. Let's
go, let's go!

Okay, next combo,
Lucy, next combo.

Right cross, left
hook, right cross.

Don't give up,
come on, everybody!

Come on, I see you slacking
back there, come on!

Get your a*s in gear,
let's go, come on, guys!

There it is, yeah, you got it.

That's quite the
right hook you've got.

It comes in handy.

You'd be surprised the
number of unsavory characters

I've had to use it on.

I don't doubt it.

I've never seen you
here before. New hobby?

That obvious, huh?

You held your own.

Yeah, well, I'm thinking
about investing in the studio.

So, figured I'd
come check it out.

And?

I can definitely see the appeal.

Well, I should get going.

I don't want my employer
to think I'm slacking off.

Yeah. Of course.

Nice running into
you, Lucy Thompson.

Have a good night. Thank you.

I know you're following me.

I don't want to hear it,

I know Clive put you up to this.

You're not the first person he's
hired to chase me around town.

He's not who you think he is.

I'd be careful if I were you.

Dean Calvet plus one, bar.

Clive. Hi.

Hi. I hope I'm not
calling too early.

No, not at all. I'm
actually at the office.

Wow. The reviews
online weren't kidding

when they said you
were dedicated.

I was going to see if
you wanted a coffee.

Yeah, actually,
that would be great.

Um, there's been a
development with your wife,

I'm just not sure
what it is yet.

Do you know a Dean Calvet?

Uh, no. Why?

She had dinner with
him last night.

I was hoping maybe
you knew who he was.

No. I've never heard
that name before.

I've got a couple photos.

Maybe you could come
by and identify him?

Absolutely. I'll be by shortly

with your coffee
and take a look.

Great.

They didn't so much
as kiss goodbye.

So they're definitely not
romantically involved,

but she did hand him an envelope
right before he got in the Uber.

So you're right, there's
something going on,

I just don't know
what it is yet.

Well, I don't
recognize him, but...

What happened
after the envelope?

He just got in the Uber and
then I followed her home.

What? So, you
were at my place?

Yeah.

Why?

Did you see me?

Yeah.

She came in, went
straight to the kitchen,

kissed you. That's
when I left.

Lucy...

Nothing happened.

It doesn't matter.
She's your wife.

We're not in love anymore.

Then why do you care if
she's having an affair?

Why don't you just leave her?

It's not that simple.

I need to prove she's cheating

or else she'll fight me for
everything in the divorce.

So, it's about the money.

It was...

But it's not anymore.

What's it about?

Lucy... it's about you.

I think you should go.

Yeah.

Right. I'm sorry.

- No. I'm sorry.
- It's just...

I've never felt this
way about anyone.

Clive, I...

What?

I can't cross this line.

I understand.

I'll go.

I'll let you know if I find
anything else about your wife.

Yeah.

Lucy!

Sorry I'm late.

The line-up at the
coffee bar was nuts.

Damn hipsters!

I'm in here. Come on in.

Oh, Mr. Cassel, good morning.

I'd have brought you a coffee
if I knew you were here.

Clive brought coffee.

I got some pictures
of this guy last night

and Clive was kind enough
to drop by last minute.

Thanks, August. I really
do need to get going.

- Thanks for coming by.
- Not a problem.

- You okay?
- Yeah, I'm good.

Dean Calvet. Got these photos

of him with Adriana
Cassel last night.

I need you to help me figure
out how they know each other.

Okay. I'll do some digging.

Ah!

Okay, you ready? Come
on, let's go! Jab!

Double jab! Good, okay.

Ready? Let's go,
fast! Right hand

Duck! Here we go again!

Ah!

- I'm so sorry!
- What's wrong with you?!

I was distracted, I'm
sorry. Are you okay?

Yeah, it's okay.

Alright, everyone,
let's switch partners.

Come on, let's go!

Charles?

Charles!

Luce! Hey.

What are you doing here?

I just finished boxing.

Why are you on
this side of town?

Oh, I'm just meeting
a potential client.

- Here?
- Yeah. He insisted.

He owns a couple
of these places.

Ah, an underground
gambling ring leader.

Say no more. Yeah.

That's why they pay
me the big bucks.

- Well, I won't keep you.
- Nice seeing you.

Hey, Luce?

Would you just mind not
telling Cami about this?

You know how she worries.

- Sure. Okay.
- Great.

Hey!

I just don't think this is something
John Cutler would be capable of.

Yeah, me neither, just
doesn't fit the profile.

Well, then, it leaves us
with Dimitri Alexander.

What's his story?

Last I checked,
Dimitri was in jail.

Okay. What happened?

I put him there.

This was years ago when
I was doing surveillance

for the police department.

They had me tailing him for
weeks to gather evidence

against him in a
drug-related incident.

Turns out he wasn't
just into drugs.

He had a thing for
beating his wife.

I testified against him. Put
him away for a long time.

Well, interesting.

What?

Well, it says here Dimitri Alexander
was let out on parole last week.

- Are you kidding me?
- No.

Wait a minute, where you going?
I'm going to El Caballito.

That's the bar he used to run

his business out of. Hold on.

I'm not leaving
this to the cops.

They couldn't put him
away without me last time.

I'm not trusting
them to do it now.

Okay, Lucy, sit down. Please.

Listen, just leave
this to me, alright?

Take the day. I will
go through the files,

I'll come up with
some questions.

It's not gonna get us
anywhere if you go over there

and get hurt by a
violent wife-beater

who has a personal
vendetta against you.

You're right.

Now, go home, take the day.
You've been through a lot.

I can't go home.

I've got to get back
to the Cassel case.

Adriana's supposed to be going out
of town with her sister tonight

and I still don't
know who that guy was

she went out for dinner
with the other night.

Lucy, breathe.

I'm sure Clive will understand

if you take one
day for yourself.

Who's there?

It's Clive.

Hi.

What are you doing here?

I just needed to see you.

You alright?

Hey...

I don't know what to do.

I don't even feel safe
in my own home anymore.

It's completely understandable.

Someone breaks into your house

and with this Dimitri
guy out there...

Yeah.

And then, there's
the nightmares.

I feel like I'm losing my mind.

You're not losing
your mind, Lucy.

Hey. Look at me.

You're being
personally targeted.

This is stressful and scary

and this guy is
obviously deranged.

Something like this would
be enough to rattle anyone.

So what do I do?

You could get out of
town for a few days.

At least until August gets some
information out of this guy.

So what, just... up and leave?

What about your wife?
What about the case?

You know, Adriana is out
of town with her sister

for the next few days.

Or so she says.

This could be our smoking g*n.

Don't you want to know
where she's really going?

She's going to Vale to see
her sister and her nieces.

She goes every year, she'll be
posting about it all weekend.

Yeah, but...

You can take a break
from the case, Lucy.

Seriously.

It can wait.

Well... Where
would we even go?

Trust me.

August, hi.

I'm just calling to let you
know that Dimitri no longer

runs his business
out of El Caballito.

- Damn.
- No, no, it's okay.

I've managed to find
where his new front is.

It's a nightclub
called The Blue Grotto.

I'm gonna pay him a
visit later tonight.

Nice work.

I should come with you.

No, no. It's better
if I go alone.

He doesn't know who I am

and he won't know I'm
connected to you in any way.

Right. Okay, well, be careful.

Yeah. Of course.

I, uh... I should let you know

I'm gonna be out of town
for the next few days.

Oh. That sounds great.

That should be good for you.

Yeah. At least until you get
something out of Dimitri.

Yeah. Couldn't agree
more. Where you heading?

A cabin in Meadowbrooke.

Nice. You're renting?

No, it's... it's a friend's.

Nice friend.

I've heard there's some pretty
fancy cottages out that way.

Yeah. For sure.

You okay?

All things considered?

Yeah. I'm good.

Alright. Enjoy the
countryside. And...

I'll give you a call
after I talk to Dimitri.

Sounds good.

Everything okay?

Yeah. I don't know...

I just feel like he knows
I'm hiding something.

Well, I wouldn't
worry about him.

You're the boss.

If he finds out, he'll
just have to deal with it.

This is amazing.

Thanks.

It's been in my family
for generations.

Oh, it's one of my
favorite places.

Thank you for bringing me here.

- Name?
- Hey. No.

I'm not on your list.
I'm here to see Dimitri.

No one gets in if
they're not on the list.

I'm one of his
business partners.

He's expecting me.

Yeah, well, Dimitri
is not here right now.

Oh yeah?

Why don't you let me go inside
and have a look for myself?

Like I said, no one gets in
if they're not on the list.

Right.

Dimitri.

I need to talk to you.

Damn!

Hmm.

So, what do you think?

Oh, I'm sorry.

You're obviously still
a little on edge.

Well, why don't I put on a fire

and you can pour us some wine?

- That sounds great.
- Okay.

I'm sorry.

What?

I'm just looking at you.

Oh, my God. That smile is
gonna be the death of me.

What is it about you?

What do you mean?

I never let my guard down.

But around you...

I know I just met you.

I don't know, it
just feels like...

Like an instinct?

Yeah.

Come on, Dimitri.

I know you're down there.

What do you want, man?

I just wanna talk to you.

What do you wanna know?

Where were you the
night of April 27th?

Let me phrase it another way.

Did you break into
Lucy Thompson's house?

Yeah.

Why?

I was paid by some
guy to mess with her.

That b*tch ruined my life,
seemed like a win-win.

Someone paid you to
break into her house?

Yeah, some guy named
Clive, gave me 10 grand,

said it was time for the
hunter to become the hunted

or some crap like
that. Clive...

Hey!

Who are you?

Who the hell are you?

Lucy, pick up the phone.

Hi, you've reached
Lucy Thompson...

Lucy, pick up the phone!

Please leave a detailed
message and I'll get back...

Meadowbrooke?

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

How are you feeling?

I'm feeling a lot better.

This place has that effect.

I think you have that effect.

Do I?

Coffee?

Thanks.

I'll be right back.

Come on.

- There you are.
- Hey.

Ooh.

Didn't mean to sneak up on
you. Everything okay down here?

No! August left me a voicemail

and I can't check it
because I have no signal.

Yeah, the reception
here is pretty awful.

I don't know what to do.

This could be important.
It could be about Dimitri.

I shouldn't have come
here. Oh, hey, hey.

It's a good thing you came.

You needed this. Remember?

I need to get back to the city.

I know where we can
get a signal. Come on.

Try now.

Two bars.

That should do it.

You don't have to wait for
me if you don't want to.

No, I'll wait.

I want to know what he said.

What did he say?

Lucy, hey! Hey!

Lucy, what did he say? Lucy!

Just talk to me! It was you!

You paid Dimitri. I can't
believe I trusted you.

I've never even met Dimitri.
Lucy, stop! I love you.

Oh, my God.

No!

Oh, my God!

Lucy!

What did you do?

Come on.

Thanks.

What's going on?

Self-defense. They're
not gonna hold me.

Great, then come on.
Let's get out of here.

So... you were sleeping
with the client.

I'm sorry. I'm just trying
to make sense of all this.

It was stupid, I know.

I can't talk about it right now.

Okay.

Thank you... for warning me.

Who knows what would have happened
if I'd stayed there with him.

Hey.

We're in this together.

Lucy, where the hell were you?

I tried calling.

Thank you for being there.

Of course. Get some rest.

Uh, August, this is
my best friend Cami.

It's nice to finally meet you!

Pleasure to meet you.

I should go.

Call me if you need anything.

I will.

What's going on?

Clive's dead.

What?!

It was an accident.

I was defending myself.

He wasn't who I
thought he was at all.

I was at his cabin.

He was the one
behind the break-in.

He was after me the whole time.

Oh, honey.

Let's get you inside.

Come on.

So, what happens next?

I don't know.

But right now, we drink.

Hey.

What's going on? You okay?

I'm fine.

I'm sorry. You don't need
to hear this right now.

Cami, something is
clearly bothering you.

Talk to me.

You've just been
through so much.

Now is not the time. I'm
here for you, always.

What's going on?

It's Charles.

What about him?

I just...

I think I might
need to hire you.

You think Charles is cheating?

Where is this coming from?

He's been acting differently.

Going out to see clients, coming
home at five in the morning.

I never know where he is.

His job has always been
demanding, though, right?

Not like this.

These past few weeks, he's
been totally withdrawn.

He can't even look at
me, let alone touch me.

The other day, he came
home blackout drunk

with a busted lip.

I think he might be
gambling now. I just...

I don't know what to believe.

When was that?

Thursday, I think. Why?

Okay, I'm gonna
tell you something

and I need you to understand

that it did not seem like
a big deal at the time.

What do you...

What do you mean?
What are you saying?

I saw Charles in the Slaphouse
District on Thursday.

You what?

He said he was meeting a client.

He asked me not to say anything.

So you listened to Charles
over telling your best friend?

He said he didn't
want you to worry.

I had no idea.

Lucy, this is huge!

How could you not
have said anything?

I didn't think there
was anything to say.

Obviously, I was wrong.

This might explain his behavior
for the last few weeks.

Cami, I'm sorry.

I have to go.

Hey. Let's figure
this out together.

Honestly, Lucy, I think
you've done enough.

Lucy, talk to me! It was you!

You paid Dimitri. I can't
believe I trusted you.

I've never even met Dimitri.
Lucy, stop! I love you.

No!

Lucy... I wasn't
expecting you today.

I need to figure out what
the hell is going on.

Okay, he hires you
to follow his wife,

so he has tabs on
you at all times,

then, he seduces you,

then hires Dimitri
to terrorize you.

Yeah. I've been going
over it again and again.

And I just keep
asking myself "why".

I think it all goes back
to this sick obsession.

It's clear that he had
this fixation with you.

Yeah. But he had me.

Yeah. Not until
after the break-in.

He kept insisting that he'd
never seen Dimitri in his life.

Hey, it's perfectly normal
to second-guess yourself

after such a traumatic event.

But, Lucy, you did
what you had to do.

Who knows what he
might have done to you?

I don't know.

The more I replay it in my mind,

the more I think he just
was genuinely confused.

Like, he had no idea about
the break-in or any of it.

Yeah, well, the only
way to prove that

would be to ask Dimitri.

August, there's a lot
that's not adding up.

Dimitri is the only one that
can answer these questions.

Okay, you're the boss.

I'm going with you.

Good.

Nice place.

Yeah, you should've
been here last week.

What are you looking at?

Nothing.

Huh, great.

You know him?

Yeah. Let's just say that.

Well, look who it is.

Yeah, good to see you.

I should have known you
two were working together.

- Hi, Dimitri.
- What do you want?

I need to tell me who hired
you to break into my house.

I already told this guy.

His name was Clive.

You mean this guy, Clive?

What do I get for
ID'ing this person?

Why should I help you?

If you don't cooperate,
I press charges

and you get sent away
again, for a very long time.

I've never seen
this guy in my life.

- You're sure?
- Positive.

The Clive I met was shorter...
Trying to grow a moustache.

Leave me alone.

It doesn't make any sense.

It's... It's just
not adding up.

Hang on a sec.

Lucy! You okay?

I'll be right out.

What have you done?

I k*lled him.

I k*lled the wrong guy.

You thought you were in danger.

Anyone else would have
done the same thing.

He was in love with me

and I k*lled him.

How could I have gotten
everything so wrong?

Wait a minute.

Maybe you were supposed to.

Hear me out.

Whoever got Dimitri to
break into your house

knew you were going to
find out it was Clive,

and then that you
would confront him.

You think Adriana would
have wanted him dead?

He was a very wealthy man.

People do bad things for
money. Really bad things.

Got any pings on that guy
she went out for dinner with

the other night? None.

What was the description of
that guy Dimitri actually met?

Can you see if there's
anything there?

- Alright. Will do.
- I'm gonna go to The Regent.

That's where he was staying.
See if I can get any info there.

Okay and I'll go to Adriana's,
see if I find anything.

- Be careful.
- Yeah, you too.

Lucy?

Lucy!

Lucy saw you with him.

We'll deal with her later.

Did you get the passports?

You are now...

Vanessa Armando.

Do you think I can pull it off?

Did you... drain
all of his accounts?

Now that Clive is dead,
it all belongs to us.

Did you use the routing
number that Dean set up?

Right... the routing number.

Adriana, that one's
untraceable, right?

We cannot leave until the
funds are in that account.

I'm sorry! I put the
funds in my account.

I didn't think it would
matter. Well, it does!

You want people to
be able to find us?

What's your password?

I think someone's out there.

Adriana, your password.

Want some more wine?

Of course.

To us.

To us.

I love you so much.

I cannot wait to start this
next chapter of our lives.

Together.

Finally free, without
Cami or Clive.

Just you and me, together.

Yeah, I don't think
that's gonna happen.

What?

He's changed all his passwords.

After everything I've
been through to get here.

The strings I pulled!
Clive is dead!

Don't lie to yourself.
You wanted him gone.

If he would've
found out about us,

he would have left
you with nothing.

The money.

What are you doing?

I'm stopping the funds transfer.

Hey. I can't let you do that.

This isn't your money, Charles.

What did you do?

But I love you.

Oh no. No, no, no.

Hi, you've reached Lucy Thompson
of Thompson Investigations.

Please leave a detailed message
and I'll get back to you shortly.

It's me!

I'm sorry I overreacted
the other day.

I should not have blamed you
for what Charles has done.

It turns out he was hiding a
lot more from me than I thought.

I'm kicking him out!

I love you. Call me back.

Lucy. Hey!

Lucy!

Lucy!

Damn it!

August! It was
Charles and Adriana.

I think he k*lled her.
Call me when you get this.

Cami!

I'm here.

Okay. Hey... Hey, listen.

I just watched
Charles k*ll Adriana.

- What are you talking about?
- He wants to k*ll me now.

Let's go. Lucy!

Cami. Get out!

- What?! No...
- Get out!

Cami, no, I can explain.

Don't listen to
Lucy, she's crazy.

I know you're cheating
on me, Charles.

And the gambling?
I know we're broke!

You are the reason
Clive is dead!

No. Lucy is trying
to tear us apart.

She's always been
jealous of what we have!

You're a m*rder*r
and I need you to get

the hell out of my house
and out of my life.

Get out! This is
all your fault!

No, Charles. This
is your fault!

You're going to prison!

Don't listen to her. Just
don't listen to her, okay?

I came back. Look at
this life we have, huh?

I did this to protect
that. I did it all for you.

You're insane.

You don't understand,

Cami, look.

Look, just forget
everything. Alright? Yeah?

I solved our money problems.

Okay? We can be happy
together. I love you.

Okay, Charles... It's over.

Charles, wait!

Stop!

911, what is your emergency?

Listen to me, listen to me.

You came back. That's
all that matters.

Hey, hey! You did what
you had to do for us.

Look at me. I see
that now. Okay?

Alright, baby?

For better for worse, right?

Yeah.

Lucy! Lucy!

Ah!

You're okay.

Hey, it's okay.

This guy was fast.
I was out of breath.

I've got news! They love it.

Uh... Who loves what?

- The publisher?
- They literally want to buy

the rights to your story after
reading the first twenty pages.

Lucy, this book is
going to be huge.

- Seriously?
- Yeah. Our story is incredible.

People are going
to want to hear it.

This is so exciting.

How is the rest of
the book coming?

It's going really well.

It's been cathartic putting
it all down on paper.

So, wait, what happens now?

Well, the publishers are
going to send over a contract

and all you have to do is sign!

You are going to love
the deal I got you.

I don't doubt that.
You're a shark.

I am, aren't I?

So I'll see you
for dinner tonight?

You know it. Are
you coming, August?

Of course. I'll be there.

Amazing. Love you.

Love you.

Wow. Lucy, congratulations!

Yeah, she thinks we've
really got something here.

Yeah, so do I. And I, for
one, can't wait to read it.

I have a feeling we're
about to get very busy.

Yeah. I think so!

Ready to dive in, partner?

I will do you proud,
Lucy Thompson.

I know you will.
Now, go back to work.
