I don't know her name,

She helped Pete

run a con on Lance

to get back some money he stole.

- What?

- It's too long and complicated.

Anyway, I heard her say

she has a bookstore

on Bleecker in the Village.

Gonna find her,

gonna make her tell us

what Maggie and Pete

are really up to.

Grandpa and Sam lied to me.

Lied about what?

What happened to Mom and Dad,

the accident.

They told me that

they were hit by some drunk,

but Taylor said that

the police report

didn't mention

the guy was drunk.

And then they said, "Well,

maybe the cop made a mistake,"

but I could tell

they were lying.

Well, my guess is that

your grandpa and Sam

were drunk themselves.

The man who k*lled

Lila and Danny

may or may not have been drunk,

but he was a drunk.

Jacques Reynard.

His family came down from Quebec

a few generations back.

Strong Catholics. Good people.

Until Jacques.

Pardon my French,

but he was a mean m*therf*cker.
