00:10:56,031 --> 00:10:57,113
Has it been that long?
185
00:10:58,992 --> 00:11:00,116
Mm.
186
00:11:00,243 --> 00:11:01,618

189

- Now we're not strangers anymore.
- Right.
190
00:11:07,626 --> 00:11:09,668
Um, you're a... a writer?
191
00:11:11,296 --> 00:11:14,130
Yeah. There is a method
to this madness.
192
00:11:16,301 --> 00:11:18,385
And what do you do?
193
00:11:20,305 --> 00:11:22,180
Ah. Photographer.
194
00:11:22,307 --> 00:11:23,932
Yeah.
That makes sense.
195
00:11:24,059 --> 00:11:26,101
That's why you're gone
all the time.
196
00:11:26,228 --> 00:11:27,310
Yeah.
197
00:11:28,563 --> 00:11:29,062
I get sent to New York
a lot on assignment.
198
00:11:29,189 --> 00:11:30,189
Oh.
199
00:11:31,149 --> 00:11:31,815
And what do you shoot
in New York?
200
00:11:31,942 --> 00:11:33,108
Fashion?
201
00:11:33,235 --> 00:11:35,235
Sometimes, yeah.
202
00:11:35,362 --> 00:11:36,922
I actually had
a client over last night.
203
00:11:37,030 --> 00:11:38,446
We did a test shoot.
204
00:11:38,573 --> 00:11:39,614
Oh.
205
00:11:39,741 --> 00:11:41,157
Client.

00:11:41,284 --> 00:11:42,325
Hm.
207

Your, um...
208
00:11:44,037 --> 00:11:45,787
your boyfriend's not
around tonight.
209
00:11:46,998 --> 00:11:48,540
Ex-boyfriend.
210
00:11:48,667 --> 00:11:49,667
Oh.
211
00:11:51,211 --> 00:11:52,252
I'm sorry.
212
00:11:52,379 --> 00:11:53,503
I didn't mean to...
213
00:11:53,630 --> 00:11:56,297
No, that's okay.
214
00:11:56,425 --> 00:11:58,883
What's, uh, what's
your... your genre?
215
00:11:59,928 --> 00:12:01,219
Romance.
216
00:12:01,346 --> 00:12:02,512
Mostly.
217
00:12:02,639 --> 00:12:05,473
You know, fantasy
versus reality.
218
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:06,600
Oh.
219
00:12:09,354 --> 00:12:11,187

222
00:12:13,525 --> 00:12:15,066
How do you focus this?
223
00:12:15,193 --> 00:12:17,569
- Let me show you.
- Okay. Sorry.
224
00:12:17,696 --> 00:12:19,571
To set up focus, you want it...
225
00:12:19,698 --> 00:12:21,072
- close like that.
- Oh, hey!
226
00:12:21,199 --> 00:12:23,700
- Like that.
- Sneaky!
227
00:12:23,827 --> 00:12:27,036
And see, that is why I don't
want to work in fashion forever.
228
00:12:27,164 --> 00:12:29,330
'Cause it's all
about appearances.
229
00:12:29,458 --> 00:12:31,958
That's the opposite
of why I love photography.
230
00:12:33,295 --> 00:12:35,462
And so why do
you love photography?
231
00:12:36,965 --> 00:12:38,131
'Cause it's a journey.
232
00:12:40,010 --> 00:12:41,384
And you're searching for that...
233
00:12:43,138 --> 00:12:45,555
that one perfect moment.
234
00:12:45,682 --> 00:12:48,308
And then you can
capture it forever.
235
00:12:48,435 --> 00:12:50,477
You try to find the real moment
236
00:12:50,604 --> 00:12:53,271
and I try to create it.
237
00:12:53,398 --> 00:12:55,565
I mean, that's...
That's what writing is.
238
00:12:55,692 --> 00:12:57,817
You choose the words
239
00:12:57,944 --> 00:13:02,572
so carefully and give
the characters emotions
240
00:13:02,699 --> 00:13:06,367
and create this whole world.
241
00:13:08,455 --> 00:13:09,496
Hm.
242
00:13:10,499 --> 00:13:12,248
One real moment.
243
00:13:12,375 --> 00:13:14,542
I search for it
and you create it.
244

00:13:20,091 --> 00:13:21,883

- Oh, shi...
246

- Oh...
- I'm gonna go to the bathroom.
247
00:13:24,137 --> 00:13:25,637
- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.
248
00:13:30,811 --> 00:13:31,893
Hey.
249
00:13:32,020 --> 00:13:34,187
- Lucas Wheeler?
- Yeah, that's me.
250
00:13:34,314 --> 00:13:35,355
This it?
251
00:13:38,151 --> 00:13:40,944
Change it or for
a new set of keys?
252
00:13:41,071 --> 00:13:42,904
I just need one key.
253
00:13:43,031 --> 00:13:45,949
[Nora V.O.] The stranger
emerged from the darkness.
254
00:13:46,076 --> 00:13:47,617
His rough, vulnerable power
255
00:13:47,744 --> 00:13:49,285
drew her closer
to the red light.
256
00:13:49,412 --> 00:13:52,539
They lingered,
sharing a charged moment.
257
00:13:52,665 --> 00:13:55,165
She looked upon his face
with new wisdom.
258
00:13:55,293 --> 00:13:57,961
Cassandra was determined
to discover something in him
259
00:13:58,088 --> 00:14:00,004
no one had ever seen.

Bye.

[Nora V.O.] This time was
different for Cassandra.

Her body was alive,
burning, satisfied.
278
00:16:06,257 --> 00:16:09,717
She moved forward,
confident and in control.
279
00:16:14,516 --> 00:16:15,974
It was in this moment that
280
00:16:16,101 --> 00:16:18,434
Cassandra set her sights
on something new
281
00:16:19,646 --> 00:16:22,105

this inspiration.

Thank you. Thank you.
560
00:33:34,430 --> 00:33:36,304
Frankly, Margaret,
I'm tired of seeing
561
00:33:36,432 --> 00:33:39,433
women surprised
by their own sexuality.
562
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:43,228
Somewhere along the way,
we convinced ourselves
563
00:33:43,355 --> 00:33:46,481
that female fantasies are
more about what men want
564
00:33:46,608 --> 00:33:47,691
than what women want.
565
00:33:47,818 --> 00:33:49,860
We've lost control
of our own fantasies,
566
00:33:49,987 --> 00:33:51,153
and it has to change.
567
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,614
I mean, women can be
heroic and ruthless
568
00:33:54,742 --> 00:33:58,702
and courageous and kind,
and yes, sexual.
569
00:33:58,829 --> 00:34:01,621
We have to stop projecting
these dangerous ideals
570
00:34:01,749 --> 00:34:04,624
of being a certain weight
and looking a certain way.
571
00:34:04,752 --> 00:34:06,376
I mean, we didn't invent
these ideals
572
00:34:06,503 --> 00:34:08,085
and we certainly
don't value them,
573
00:34:08,213 --> 00:34:09,588

to live them?
574
00:34:10,924 --> 00:34:11,924

All right, I'll see you soon.
732
00:46:14,272 --> 00:46:15,272
[sighs]
733
00:46:18,067 --> 00:46:19,984
This pacing is all off.
734
00:46:22,447 --> 00:46:23,654
[sighs]
735
00:46:26,493 --> 00:46:28,659
No gallery for me tonight.
736
00:46:29,871 --> 00:46:31,037
Sorry, Lucas.
737
00:46:39,547 --> 00:46:40,963
[knocking]
738
00:46:44,302 --> 00:46:45,343
[groans]
739
00:46:48,097 --> 00:46:49,097
Oh...
740
00:46:50,058 --> 00:46:51,724
[knocking continues]
741
00:47:22,799 --> 00:47:24,215
Have anything to say to me?
742
00:47:25,844 --> 00:47:27,802
Oh, how was the show?
743
00:47:27,929 --> 00:47:29,428
How was the show?
744
00:47:31,182 --> 00:47:32,348
Where were you?
745
00:47:35,228 --> 00:47:36,894
I was here.
746
00:47:37,021 --> 00:47:38,604
Working. I told you.
747
00:47:40,149 --> 00:47:41,315
No.
748
00:47:42,819 --> 00:47:44,652
You told me you'd come.
749
00:47:46,197 --> 00:47:47,363
And I was waiting for you.
750
00:47:47,490 --> 00:47:50,992
I am always waiting for you.
751
00:47:52,537 --> 00:47:55,788
Lucas, I... I'm... I don't... I...
752
00:47:57,625 --> 00:47:59,834
I'm sorry.
I was working.
753
00:47:59,961 --> 00:48:01,669
I gave up a job.
754
00:48:02,964 --> 00:48:04,046
To be here with you.
755
00:48:05,842 --> 00:48:08,259
I didn't know you did that.
756
00:48:09,345 --> 00:48:12,013
I didn't ask you to do that.
757
00:48:12,140 --> 00:48:13,973
I'd give up anything for you.
758
00:48:18,021 --> 00:48:19,562
Listen, Lucas...
759
00:48:20,899 --> 00:48:24,066
our time together
has been great,
760
00:48:24,193 --> 00:48:29,488
but I'm really focused on
my writing right now, you know?
761
00:48:29,616 --> 00:48:30,865
And I... I'm sorry.
762
00:48:30,992 --> 00:48:34,493
I don't have time for,
like, a real relationship.
763
00:48:34,621 --> 00:48:37,121
I thought that
we talked about that.
764
00:48:37,290 --> 00:48:38,290
[sighs]
765
00:48:38,416 --> 00:48:40,207
We have so much fun.
766
00:48:40,335 --> 00:48:41,335
"Fun"?
767
00:48:43,296 --> 00:48:44,378
So...
768
00:48:45,506 --> 00:48:49,342
you had your fun
and now it's over.
769
00:48:49,969 --> 00:48:51,177
No. I... I'm...
770
00:48:51,304 --> 00:48:52,803
Is this part of your fantasy?
771
00:48:54,724 --> 00:48:56,076
Where you meet guys,
fall in love with them,
772
00:48:56,100 --> 00:48:57,786
and then you get off
by treating them like shit?
773
00:48:57,810 --> 00:48:59,268
No.
774
00:49:00,939 --> 00:49:03,731
You came to my room in the
middle of the night, yes or no?
775
00:49:04,817 --> 00:49:06,275
- Yes or no?
- You know what?
776
00:49:06,486 --> 00:49:07,726
Lucas, I think you should leave.
777
00:49:10,949 --> 00:49:11,739
Okay?
778
00:49:11,866 --> 00:49:13,616
I think you should leave now.
779
00:49:18,456 --> 00:49:19,705
No writer's block tonight?
780
00:49:22,710 --> 00:49:23,793
I thought I was your muse.
781
00:49:29,175 --> 00:49:30,175
You know what?
782
00:49:32,220 --> 00:49:33,427
You're mine too.
783
00:49:36,474 --> 00:49:38,599
I'm not willing to
let you go just yet.
784
00:49:43,815 --> 00:49:44,815
Leave.
785
00:49:46,359 --> 00:49:47,441
Now!
786
00:50:14,012 --> 00:50:15,012
[clattering]
787
00:50:19,350 --> 00:50:20,350
[grunting]
788
00:50:23,521 --> 00:50:24,770
You're sure?
789
00:50:24,897 --> 00:50:26,617
Yeah, it was like
he was a different person.
790
00:50:26,733 --> 00:50:30,151
He was freaking out,
breaking things.
791
00:50:30,278 --> 00:50:31,569
It was really scary.
792
00:50:31,696 --> 00:50:33,029
Hm.
793
00:50:33,489 --> 00:50:35,281
Well, I hate to play
devil's advocate,
794
00:50:35,408 --> 00:50:37,199
but you did just dump the guy.
795
00:50:37,368 --> 00:50:38,868
What are you talking about?
796
00:50:40,246 --> 00:50:41,412
You broke his heart
797
00:50:41,539 --> 00:50:43,748
and he went home
and tore up his bedroom.
798
00:50:43,916 --> 00:50:46,667
You can't blame the guy
because you can actually
799
00:50:46,794 --> 00:50:47,794
see into his bedroom.
800
00:50:50,006 --> 00:50:51,297
You remember back in grad school
801
00:50:51,424 --> 00:50:52,840
when Melissa cut me loose?
802
00:50:53,134 --> 00:50:57,803
I put my fist through a wall
and I screamed in the street
803
00:50:57,930 --> 00:51:00,556
and I got drunk every night
for, like, a week.
804
00:51:01,017 --> 00:51:02,391
This was different.
805
00:51:02,602 --> 00:51:06,062
It was like he wanted
me to see him.
806
00:51:07,315 --> 00:51:09,857
But isn't that your little game?
807
00:51:09,984 --> 00:51:12,568
Like, you guys watch
each other through the window?
808
00:51:12,695 --> 00:51:13,736
Maybe he's still playing.
809
00:51:15,990 --> 00:51:17,656
Well, it's not fun anymore.
810
00:51:17,784 --> 00:51:21,368
And I have the biggest meeting
of my career tomorrow.
811
00:51:21,496 --> 00:51:24,163
I mean today in five hours.
812
00:51:24,290 --> 00:51:25,664
[scoffs]
813
00:51:25,917 --> 00:51:27,374
Well, get some rest.
814
00:51:27,502 --> 00:51:30,002
- [sighs]
- I'll crash on the couch.
815
00:51:30,379 --> 00:51:33,881
And tomorrow, we'll work out
your escape plan, and...
816
00:51:34,217 --> 00:51:35,611
I'll wait till then
to say, "I told you so,"
817
00:51:35,635 --> 00:51:37,315
about the whole dating
your neighbor thing.
818
00:51:38,554 --> 00:51:40,012
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
819
00:51:58,741 --> 00:52:00,241
[Nora] Come on, Scotty!
We'll be late!
820
00:52:00,409 --> 00:52:01,649
[Scotty]
I'm comin', I'm comin'.
821
00:52:15,424 --> 00:52:17,007
- Thank you for staying over.
- Yeah.
822
00:52:17,135 --> 00:52:19,321
You know, just tell me when you
make your pile of sexy money.
823
00:52:19,345 --> 00:52:21,804
I'm not sure the money itself
will actually be sexy.
824
00:52:21,973 --> 00:52:22,973
Oh, it will.
825
00:52:28,729 --> 00:52:29,770
Good luck with Margaret.
826
00:52:31,107 --> 00:52:32,940
- You'll do great.
- Thanks, Scotty.
827
00:52:33,151 --> 00:52:34,483
- Bye.
- I love you.
828
00:53:15,526 --> 00:53:15,983
[grunts]
829
00:53:16,110 --> 00:53:17,818
[groans]
830
00:53:17,945 --> 00:53:18,945
[groans]
831
00:53:21,032 --> 00:53:23,010
[Receptionist] Ms. Nichols,
Margaret will see you now.
832
00:53:23,034 --> 00:53:24,074
Thank you.
833
00:53:26,329 --> 00:53:27,661
- [grunts]
- [groans]
834
00:53:30,708 --> 00:53:32,458
Brilliant. Really brilliant.
835
00:53:32,585 --> 00:53:36,045
I love the exploration
of that fine line
836
00:53:36,172 --> 00:53:38,255
between obsession
and inspiration.
837
00:53:38,382 --> 00:53:40,841
Thank you, Margaret.
That means so much.
838
00:53:40,968 --> 00:53:43,010
And Cassandra as
the sexual aggressor...
839
00:53:44,472 --> 00:53:46,013
so smart.
840
00:53:46,140 --> 00:53:48,140
I can't wait to see how it ends.
841
00:53:48,267 --> 00:53:50,476
I do need you to
incorporate those notes
842
00:53:50,645 --> 00:53:52,853
that I e-mailed you
in the next draft,
843
00:53:53,189 --> 00:53:54,669
which I'm gonna have
by Friday, right?
844
00:53:56,067 --> 00:53:57,107
Friday.
845
00:53:58,361 --> 00:53:59,777
No problem.
846
00:53:59,904 --> 00:54:03,864
Who knew erotic thriller
was really your genre?
847
00:54:04,992 --> 00:54:07,660
Hey, best friend!
Great news!
848
00:54:07,787 --> 00:54:09,745
[Karen] Nora, get down
to County Hospital.
849
00:54:09,872 --> 00:54:11,330
What happened?
850
00:54:11,457 --> 00:54:13,165
[Woman on PA]
Dr. Landry...
851
00:54:13,292 --> 00:54:14,500
Karen, how is he?
852
00:54:14,627 --> 00:54:16,210
I... I don't know.
853
00:54:16,337 --> 00:54:18,837
I... I couldn't go anywhere.
I couldn't.
854
00:54:18,965 --> 00:54:21,173
Ladies, we need to
run some tests.
855
00:54:21,300 --> 00:54:22,591
Visiting hours are over.
856
00:54:24,011 --> 00:54:24,510
[Man on PA] Paging Doctor Maria.
Doctor Maria...
857
00:54:24,637 --> 00:54:25,928
Oh, my God.
858
00:54:26,180 --> 00:54:26,971
I... I just saw him.
859
00:54:27,098 --> 00:54:28,555
He stayed over last night.
860
00:54:29,976 --> 00:54:31,016
[groans]
861
00:54:31,143 --> 00:54:32,184
[Both]
Scotty?
862
00:54:32,311 --> 00:54:33,352
Are you okay?
863
00:54:34,689 --> 00:54:36,772
- [groans]
- He'll be okay.
864
00:54:36,899 --> 00:54:38,065
He's Scotty.
865
00:54:38,192 --> 00:54:39,503
[Woman on PA]
Paging Monica Sabrina...
866
00:54:39,527 --> 00:54:41,007
When's the last time
you ate anything?
867
00:54:41,195 --> 00:54:43,320
There's a ramen place
two blocks over.
868
00:54:45,700 --> 00:54:46,900
Scotty loves that ramen place.
869
00:54:48,995 --> 00:54:51,036
Rest. We'll be back soon.
870
00:54:52,331 --> 00:54:53,414
Come on, let's go.
871
00:54:53,541 --> 00:54:54,941
There's nothing we can
do right now.
872
00:54:56,419 --> 00:54:57,751
[Man on PA]
Oncology...
873
00:55:05,803 --> 00:55:07,636
- Hey!
- Hey.
874
00:55:07,763 --> 00:55:09,263
Nora, please! I...
875
00:55:10,933 --> 00:55:12,057
Please, I...
876
00:55:13,519 --> 00:55:15,394
I just want to apologize.
877
00:55:15,521 --> 00:55:18,772
Look, I was way out of line
last night, and, um...
878
00:55:20,026 --> 00:55:21,026
I'm sorry.
879
00:55:23,446 --> 00:55:24,528
Can I come in?
880
00:55:27,033 --> 00:55:31,118
I don't think that's
such a good idea, Lucas.
881
00:55:32,330 --> 00:55:33,996
I have a lot going on right now
882
00:55:34,123 --> 00:55:35,873
and my friend's in the hospital.
883
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:37,708
Somebody I know?
884
00:55:39,003 --> 00:55:40,127
I don't think so.
885
00:55:45,051 --> 00:55:46,342
What the hell is this?
886
00:55:48,220 --> 00:55:49,928
Don't you want to open it?
887
00:55:50,056 --> 00:55:51,056
What?
888
00:55:55,603 --> 00:55:56,763
I think you're gonna love it.
889
00:56:00,358 --> 00:56:01,982
How did you get in here, Lucas?
890
00:56:04,904 --> 00:56:06,195
You left the door unlocked.
891
00:56:10,618 --> 00:56:12,368
I feel terrible...
892
00:56:12,495 --> 00:56:13,994
about yesterday.
893
00:56:15,164 --> 00:56:16,914
But I saw this...
894
00:56:17,041 --> 00:56:18,582
and I thought of you.
895
00:56:21,587 --> 00:56:22,961
It's from the '30s.
896
00:56:24,215 --> 00:56:26,048
It still works. Try it.
897
00:56:39,355 --> 00:56:40,396
What is this?
898
00:56:41,774 --> 00:56:43,273
It's from the other day.
899
00:56:43,442 --> 00:56:45,025
When you were with your friend.
900
00:56:47,822 --> 00:56:49,196
You followed me?
901
00:56:53,285 --> 00:56:54,451
Are you mad?
902
00:56:57,540 --> 00:56:59,498
Look, Nora, we had a fight.
903
00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:02,084
But I'm sorry.
904
00:57:03,295 --> 00:57:04,586
You need to forgive me.
905
00:57:09,009 --> 00:57:13,762
This... this is over.
906
00:57:13,889 --> 00:57:16,390
Don't ruin this, Nora.
907
00:57:16,517 --> 00:57:18,308
You know...
908
00:57:18,436 --> 00:57:19,436
[sighs]
909
00:57:20,688 --> 00:57:22,855
I just... I can't right now.
910
00:57:24,775 --> 00:57:27,734
I'm just... I'm tired.
911
00:57:34,869 --> 00:57:36,118
Well, what about your novel?
912
00:57:37,746 --> 00:57:38,996

01:12:09,200 --> 01:12:10,366
That is Maureen Gallagher
1093
01:12:10,493 --> 01:12:12,910
and she's been missing for weeks
and he knew her.
1094

Sir?
1095
01:12:17,041 --> 01:12:19,584
Maureen was one
of my models, yeah.
1096

Are you aware she's been
reported missing?

Yes, of course.

you want to see

this particular photograph?
1101
01:12:31,764 --> 01:12:35,266
He was obsessed with her
and I think that he had
1102
01:12:35,477 --> 01:12:38,269
something to do
with her disappearance.

why don't you

the station with us?
1106
01:12:43,234 --> 01:12:45,151

- Yes?

Maureen eloped

and was found
in Riverside today.
1122

Turns out it was a runaway case.

didn't approve of the guy.

Oh, my God.
1126
01:13:49,925 --> 01:13:51,843
Yeah, turns out Lucas is
just some broody creep,
1127
01:13:52,137 --> 01:13:52,927
not a murderer.
1128
01:13:53,054 --> 01:13:54,134
He did know Maureen though.
1129
01:13:55,389 --> 01:13:55,680
