WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN US
THE OTHER DAY,

THAT WAS A MISTAKE.
-IT WAS?

I WANT YOU TO MEET
MY DEAR FRIEND,

PASTOR MAXINE PATTERSON.

I NEED TO BE ON MY OWN.

GET OFF OF MY PROPERTY.

WE LIVE.
WE LIVE RIGHT NOW.

THIS CASE GOES TO TRIAL,
SHE'LL GET LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE.

YOU MAY FIND YOURSELF
ON TRIAL, TOO.

THE DA IS OFFERING
YOU A DEAL.

PLEAD GUILTY, SECOND-DEGREE
MURDER, YOU GET 20 YEARS.

-I CAN'T GO TO PRISON.
-WHAT? ARE YOU QUITTING?

I STAYED
BECAUSE I LIKED YOU,

BUT NOW I LIKE YOU
A LOT MORE THAN JUST LIKE.

IT'S FOR THE BEST.

IS IT TRUE YOU INVESTED
SOME LARGE SUM

OF MONEY
WITH ROCHELLE?

DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH THAT?

-I DON'T TRUST HER.
-YOU'RE MAKING MONEY ALREADY.

ARE YOU USING ME?
-NO.

BECAUSE THAT'S
WHAT IT SEEMS LIKE.

I'LL NEVER
DOUBT YOU AGAIN.

I KNOW YOU HAD AN AFFAIR
WITH LIONEL.

EVERY THING YOU LET HAPPEN
UNDER THIS ROOF.

STOP BLAMING EVERYONE ELSE,
ESPECIALLY ME.

MY DAD CALLED YOU A FEW TIMES.
HE HAS PANCREATIC CANCER.

James: YOU KNOW WHAT BROKE
THE HEART OF JESUS?

IT WAS THE BETRAYAL
OF A FRIEND.

I AM SO SORRY.

James: HERE ARE
THE DIVORCE PAPERS.

WHY DID YOU
SIGN THEM, JAMES?

BECAUSE I KNOW I HAVE NO RIGHT
TO THIS MARRIAGE.

PERHAPS I NEVER DID.

HOW IS YOUR TRIFLING ASS GOING
TO LIE TO ME IN GOD'S OWN HOUSE?

HOW?
-WHAT DID SHE TELL YOU?

WHAT DID WHO TELL ME,
JACOB, HUH?

NOTHING HAPPENED,
KERISSA.

REALLY? BECAUSE I JUST
GOT OFF THE PHONE

WITH THAT GOLD-PLATED HUSSY,
WHO, BY THE WAY,

IS THREE EGYPTIAN-COTTON SHEETS
TO THE WIND

AT 4:00 P.M.
ON A WEEKDAY,

AND SHE SAID,
"IT WAS JUST A KISS."

SO WHAT WAS IT, NOTHING,

A KISS, OR WHAT?

IT WAS JUST A KISS!

OH, SO NOW IT JUST WENT FROM
NOTHING TO JUST A KISS?

STOP LYING TO ME,
JACOB!

I'M NOT LYING.
OKAY?

IT WAS JUST A KISS,
AND IT WAS A NOTHING KISS

BECAUSE I SHUT IT DOWN.

I TOLD HER, "I DON'T PLAY LIKE
THAT ANYMORE. I'M FAITHFUL."

YOU'RE FAITHFUL?

YOU'RE JUST FAITHFUL
TO YOURSELF, JACOB.

THAT'S WHY ZORA LEFT.

MAYBE WINKIE AND I
SHOULD GO, TOO.

ALL RIGHT NOW.
WATCH THAT.

THE MAN IS SUPPOSED TO BE
THE TENTPOLE OF THE FAMILY,

THE STRONG TOWER
THAT HOLDS IT UP!

YOU'RE JUST A TWIG!

I'M THE PROBLEM, RIGHT?

YOU'RE NOT EVEN A TWIG.

YOU'RE JUST A PUDDLE,

A PUDDLE OF NEED AND DESIRE
AND BAD IDEAS AND...

HOW COULD YOU DO THIS
TO ME AGAIN?

I TRUSTED YOU.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR, DOOR OPENS ]

WHAT IS IT, JOSEPH?
NO, I'LL COME BACK, TRULY.

JOSEPH, PLEASE JUST COME IN
AND SAY WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY.

IT'S ABOUT THE ACCOUNT.

OH, I TALKED WITH THE WOMAN
WHO WAS HANDLING THE BOOKS,

AND SHE DOESN'T
SEEM TO KNOW.

I DON'T THINK
SHE DID ANYTHING.

THEN SOMEONE DID,
VERY MUCH SO.

MEANING WHAT?

OVER $200,000 WAS DEPOSITED

THEN WITHDRAWN, BUT I CAN'T SEEM
