[intense music]

Are you ready for me?

You look great.

It's all about
how fabulous you are,

So it should be super easy.

So, how's your love life?

Completely uneventful.

Oh, come on.

Charly huxton's love life
uneventful?

You were voted
model of the year twice.

Three times, actually.

You're the co-founder and ceo
of your own fashion line.

You're single,
you're gorgeous.

You're not dating anybody?

I'm not going there.

Dylan tanner?

What about him?

He's one of the biggest
movie stars on the planet

And you married him.

We all make mistakes.

[laughs]

I'm glad to see you have
a sense of humor about it.

You've been divorced
for 14 months.

Yes.

And in the process,
completely reinvented yourself

As a business mogul.

Do you ever wake up and think,

"ah, what a difference
a year makes"?

Honestly, no.

I've completely moved on
and I couldn't be happier.

Now, singular sportswear
went public last month

And became one of the hottest
stocks on wall street.

Now, some say that you owe
your company's success

To the publicity of your breakup
with dylan.

Are they right or wrong?

[mellow music]

I'd say I was doing quite well
before dylan came along.

I'm sorry, you know
I have to ask this.

The producers push me
to ask these questions,

So I'm gonna do it
one more time.

The question
on everyone's mind is,

Is there a new man
in your life?

What do you say?

Well, you can ask me
the same thing a million times.

No comment.

[sighs]

All right.

You win this time,

But next time, I am gonna
get that out of you.

Mm, we'll see.

[laughs, cell phone rings]

That was great, thank you.

[charly]
before you ask, it went fine.

So she didn't want to know
who you were dating?

Of course she did.

A woman can't run
a fortune 500 company

Without a man by her side.

Lucky for you,
there isn't one.

Ha, your sarcasm is duly noted.

Anyway, you're all I need,
partner.

-So what's up?
-What's up

Is that godfrey
was just in my office

On a tirade about how you've
been overruling him again.

He's our lead designer,
not you.

Godfrey's a prima donna
and we pay him way too much.

Do you even know
how much he's being paid?

I try to stay focused
on the big picture.

The details are your department,
thank goodness.

Look, I hired godfrey
because I believe in his ideas.

I'm also the one with
the fashion design background,

Not you.

Look, when we started
the company,

We decided that I would be
the face of the brand.

Now if you or the board
has a problem

With the way I do things,
you can force me out.

Not while you control 51%.

Oh, that's right,
I forgot.

Hey, we're a team,
you know that.

Look, all kidding aside,

You need to make peace
with him

And you need to do it today.

Fine, I'll pucker up
and kiss his ass

When I get back to the office.

I promise.

[lark]
thank you.

-Lunch later?
-Ah, we'll see.

I've got a lot on my plate.

Well, I hope not too much.

You're my rock, lark.

[soft music]

Don't I know it.

[intense music]

[sighs]

Too blue, too red.

Too--I rejected this design
last week.

Yes, ms. Huxton,
but, uh, godfrey said--

Godfrey works for me,
not the other way around.

Where is he?

He's, uh, he's...

Mindy, breathe.

You're my assistant,

That means you have permission
to speak clearly.

He's in your office.

[soft, tense music]

[typing]

What do you think
you're doing in my office?

And that's my computer.

-I'm so sorry.
-I had to check a file.

And you gave him my password?

I didn't, I just unlocked it
for him.

He said you'd be okay with it.

Do I look like I'm okay with it?

[godfrey chuckles]

I don't know why
you're laughing.

She's not the only one

Who's gonna have to dust off
that résumé.

You can't fire me
without just cause.

Without cause?

You just threw every rule
we have about privacy

And workplace boundaries
out the window.

Oh, you want to talk to me
about boundaries?

That's rich.

What was I supposed to do,

Just sit back and let you ruin
months of work?

I had to make sure you're not
altering more of my designs

-Behind my back.
-Oh, please.

You are lucky all I'm doing
is firing you,

Now get out!

You'll be hearing
from my lawyer.

When you said dust off
that résumé,

Did you mean mine too?

Yes, yours too.

[soft music]

[sighs]

[soft, tense music]

[handcuffs locking]

Okay, guys, and cut.

That's a cut for today.

Okay, guys, we're gonna be
back in five, back in five.

Talent, get some rest.

Get some water, guys.
Great job.

Okay, I'll play.

[giggles]

What's that all about, vargas?

He's gonna run lines with her.

Is she an actress?
I don't recognize her.

[chuckles]

She's an extra,

But I think she's about
to get a speaking role.

[soft music]

-Wow.
-Hey.

We just work for the guy, right?

We don't ask questions.

[intense music]

[sighs]

We need to talk.

He comes back over my dead body.

I understand why you got rid
of the intern, but godfrey?

The board's not gonna like this.

Are you serious?

The only thing
that would have been worse

Is if they'd been screwing
on my desk.

You should have discussed it
with me first.

You're right.
Mea culpa.

Oh, no, no, you don't get
out of it that easily.

Admit it, you wanted to go
in a different direction

And this was
the perfect excuse.

Where is this coming from
all of a sudden?

All of a sudden?

You've been fighting me
on every major decision

For a year now.

-I'm on your side, you know.
-That is so not true.

Yes, it is.

I am the co-founder
of this company.

And yet you make me feel

Like I'm just another one
of your flunkies.

That's ridiculous.

Why are you taking this
so personally?

What godfrey did was
unforgivable and you know it.

He was going through all my
personal messages and emails.

Now I don't mean
to sound harsh,

But can you please
just do your job

And find somebody else?

[soft, tense music]

[employee]
graph b shows our earnings
over the last quarter.

As you can see,
the be singular campaign

Is still generating strong
sales and awareness for us

Across all major demographics
and product lines.

And when does
the new campaign drop?

It'll be in major markets
by the end of the month.

Good, the sooner the better.

Wait, this month?

I thought we agreed
on christmas.

I decided to move it up.

You decided?
But we're a team.

We need to build
on this momentum, lark.

We discussed it and there's
no reason to wait.

We did not discuss it.

Come on, we all knew
what you would say.

You're saying it now.

[lark scoffs]

So my opinion doesn't count,
is that it?

You'll just pat me
on the head

And do whatever
you want anyway?

No.

You know what, um,
it's been a crazy morning,

We're all a little tired.

Why don't we just table
this conversation

Until after lunch, okay?

[soft, tense music]

About time one of us
gets out of here.

I've been here since 5:00 a.M.

So have I.

Okay.

So how do you want
to handle this?

Rock, paper, scissors.

Rock, paper, scissors again?

Okay.

How 'bout we, uh,
flip a coin, like adults?

Because I know you probably
don't have one

After getting cleaned out
at the poker table last night.

That's funny.

[laughs]

Rock every single time.

Gotta learn to be
less predictable, my friend.

I might be predictable,

But at least I can buy
my own drinks.

How many times
have you bet everything

On some crazy longshot, huh?

What can I say, jonny-boy?

When I'm in, I'm all in.

For the record,
you owe me one.

[chuckles]

Hey, it's not my fault.

Gambling is a disease,

And I'm a sick, sick man, jonny.

See you tomorrow, vargas.

[soft, tense music]

[woman]
help, help!

Somebody help me!

[sinister music]

[harvey]
what the hell do you want?

[jonathan]
no one takes advantage
of a woman on my watch.

[grunting, panting]

[soft, tense music]

Get control your friend.

You're done, buddy.

I think you just lost your job.

No worries.

I was plannin'
on quittin' anyway.

I just hope
it doesn't cost me mine.

[harvey]
jonathan makepeace,
get in my office right now.

[crickets chirring]

[soft, tense music]

And graph b shows our earnings
over the last quarter.

And as you can see,
the be singular campaign

Is still generating
strong sales and awareness

Across all major demographics
and product lines.

[speaking continues, distorts]

[sensual music]

[soft music]

[laughs softly]

[peeling tape]

[soft, tense music]

Oh my god.

[sinister music]

That's what was in the box.

Charming.

All right, false alarm,
everybody.

-Back to work.
-You all heard her.

Back to work?

Seriously?
That was a death threat, charly.

Not the first one.

No, it's not.
That doesn't bother you?

I'm a public figure.

A few ruffled feathers
are the cost of doing business.

A few ruffled--
okay, look.

You may think you're invincible,
but you're not.

I set up
an emergency board meeting.

I want you safe.

[soft music]

Everyone is in agreement.

We are very concerned
about your safety.

Well, I'm not.

I'll be okay.

I don't think you appreciate
the gravity of this situation.

Of course I do.

You're worried
that some whacko

Is gonna drop a safe
on my head.

Well, that's not gonna happen.

And nine times out of ten,
these are empty threats.

There are other factors
to consider.

-Like what?
-If something happens to you,

What happens
to our stock price?

I'm aware.

There it is, the bottom line.

This is a business,
in case you'd forgotten.

It's my life.

What do you expect me to do,

Hide out in my house like
I'm some kind of prisoner?

We want you to hire a bodyguard.

[laughs]

[soft, tense music]

You're--you're serious.

I appreciate the concern,

But I don't think
it's necessary.

A bodyguard and a few changes
to your routine,

Just until the police
finish their investigation.

That's not a lot to ask.

I refuse to be intimidated
by this nut, whoever he is.

Now if you'll excuse me,
I've got a big day tomorrow.

[birds chirping]

[soft music]

[tense music]

[dialing cell phone]

[phone rings]

[dispatcher]
9-1-1, what's your emergency?

Hi.
This is charly huxton.

There's a man underneath my car.

I think he might be
planting a bomb.

[dispatcher]
why do you think he's planting
a bomb, ma'am?

Because I received
a death threat last week.

[dispatcher]
ms. Huxton, can you give us
your location?

Yeah, 528-22 loma verde.

[dispatcher]
5-2-8-2-2 l-o-m-a v-e-r-d-e?

Is that correct, ma'am?

-Ma'am?
-Wait.

I don't see him anymore.

Oh no.

-I forgot--
-forgot to lock your front--

[screams, sprays]

-Oh!
-I got him.

-What's happening?
-Send the police.

-What the hell? The police?
-Yes, the police.

You're not going anywhere
until they get here.

[dispatcher]
ms. Huxton, please describe
what's happening.

Ms. Huxton, I think there's been
a misunderstanding.

Nice try.
I saw you under my car.

I know what you were doing.

If you move,
I will spray you again.

I was making sure no one
tampered with your brakes.

-What?
-I'm jonathan makepeace.

-I'm your new bodyguard.
-I don't have a bodyguard.

[jonathan groans]

You do now.
Lark embridge hired me.

She didn't tell you?

She failed to mention it.

Do you have id
or something?

Uh, yeah.

Here.

Yeah.

[dispatcher]
a patrol car is on the way.

Wait, wait.
I'm fine.

It was a mistake, I'm sorry.

[dispatcher]
what about the man
under your car?

He's my bodyguard, I guess.

[jonathan groans]

-Are you okay?
-No.

Do you have some water?

Oh yeah, the sink's that way.

Sorry, I didn't expect anybody.

I just gotta rinse this eye.

[soft, tense music]

[sighs]

[cell phone ringing]

-Hello?
-Lark.

Don't you ever do something
like that behind my back again.

I know you care,
but this was way overboard.

I wish I didn't have to,

But you were being even more
unreasonable than usual.

That's a matter of opinion.

I'm sorry.

Look, just give him a chance.

One week,
that's all we're asking.

48 hours.

And he better not get in my way.

Goodbye.

[sighs]

I, uh...

Suppose I owe you an apology.

No, no, no,
it's my fault, really.

I should have called ahead,

Let you know
I was coming out here.

I'm sorry.

[jonathan clears his throat]

First time
with that stuff though.

Yeah, first time for everything.

[clears throat]

I'm just glad it expired
so long ago.

It burns.

I bet.

-Good aim though.
-Yeah, I thought so.

[soft, tense music]

Look, I understand
that you're not excited

-About this arrangement, but--
-that's an understatement.

But we're gonna have
to work together.

Temporarily.

-What are you doing?
-Driving you. The keys?

Are you kidding me?

Look, this isn't gonna work
unless you let me do my job.

Well, you're a bodyguard,
not a chauffer.

If you want to protect me,
protect me.

But I'll take care
of the driving.

Fine.

[charly sighs]

What are you waiting for?

You to fasten your seatbelt.

[seatbelt glides, clicks]

[engine starts]

Thank you.

If we're gonna be spending
a lot of time together,

We should probably get to know
each other better.

Well, I got the impression
you wanted to get this done

As quickly as possible.

Well, you obviously
haven't heard.

[she sighs]

I am not happy unless everyone
around me is miserable.

So...

Ever taken a bullet
for a client?

Does that matter?

Well, I--I just want
to make sure my employees

Are taking their jobs
just as seriously as I am.

Look, once I commit to someone,
I commit.

Really?

I didn't mean it that way.

Well, I should hope not.

You'd better keep
your mind on the job

If you want to work for me.

Lark told me exactly
what to expect,

So, it'll be all right.

That I expect my team
to stay focused?

Among other things.

Oh, really?

Like what?

Come on, I want to know
exactly what she said.

Look, I'm not getting in
the middle of some cat fight

Between a couple
of one-percenters.

One-percenters?

You see us as bank accounts,
is that it?

All I'm gonna say
is I've seen how ugly

You kind of people can play,
and I don't want any part of it.

Starts by reading too much
ayn rand when you're in college.

Ooh, now the claws come out.

Just so you know,
rand was more lark's jam.

I was more into vonnegut.

Really? Me too.

[soft music]

[vehicle approaching]

What are we doing here?

This won't take long.

Stay in the car.

You really want to test me
on this?

It'll take 15 minutes, tops.

Stay.

[soft, tense music]

[indistinct chatter]

She asked about
the payment plan today.

I told her
it was taken care of,

But I don't think
she believed me.

-Thank you.
-Don't thank me.

It's a wonderful thing
you're doing, ms. Huxton.

Uh, listen,
I have to get to work,

But if they need anything,
you let me know, all right?

Of course.

Like I said,
15 minutes on the dot.

Who else knows?

About what?

Cancer.

You followed me?

Look, I don't technically
work for you.

I work for the board.

I just don't want to get blamed
if you suddenly drop dead.

[charly sighs]

Your concern for my health
is touching,

But I'm fine, I promise.

Sounds good.

I lost my mom to leukemia
when I was 15.

Wouldn't wish it
on my worst enemy.

I'm so sorry.

That... Must have been terrible.

All I'm saying is,

If you're going through
something

And you need someone
to talk to...

I'm your man.

I can't imagine
going through that,

But this isn't...

[sighs]

This is a personal matter.

I just--I can't talk about it.

Is that okay?

Yeah.

[sighs]
okay.

Well, I've got a busy day today,

So I would
really appreciate it

If you could just
keep a low profile.

You won't even know I'm there.

[engine starts]

[bright music]

I'm gonna need the code
to the gate out there.

By all means.
Make yourself at home.

How many do you own?

How many what?

Homes.

This is it.

Really?

You're worth
millions of dollars.

Don't get me wrong,
the view's amazing,

But it seems a little, uh...

Quaint?

-Yeah.
-Yeah.

I like the energy.

Which reminds me,
how did you make it

Past the front gate
this morning?

I bribed the guard.

See how easy it is
for someone to get to you?

I'll call the hoa
in the morning

And have him fired
immediately.

-Already done.
-Wow.

I have to admit,
I'm impressed.

Why? Because I take my job
as serious as you take yours?

Well, this has been
very educational,

But I am feeling
quite secure now,

So, if we're all done here...

Uh, yeah, I think I've seen
everything I need to see.

[soft music]

-Uh, have a good night.
-You too.

[door opens]

[door closes]

[soft, tense music]

-Dr. Dankoff?
-Can I help you?

Um, jonathan makepeace.

I work private security
for charly huxton.

I just wondered
if I could ask you

A few questions
about her treatment?

Her treatment?

Ms. Huxton isn't undergoing
any treatment,

At least not here.

So her cancer
is in remission then?

As far as I know, ms. Huxton
has never had cancer,

But even if she had, I wouldn't
be at liberty to discuss it.

So if you'll excuse me--

So, what was she doing here
this morning?

Who was she here to see?

I'm sorry, mr. Makepeace.

That's right.

But you'll have to ask her
that question.

[crickets chirring]

Beautiful, baby, I need you
to work with me, okay?

[sighs]

If you can just...

If you could just do
what I want you to do.

[cell phone alerts]

[typing]

[typing]

[dramatic music]

[typing]

[soft, tense music]

Mm.

Yeah, I've got the selects
with me right now.

I'm heading over.

We can take a look
at everything.

Oh!

[liquid spills]

-You okay?
-Uh, yeah.

-Here's your coffee.
-Thanks.

And don't do that to me again.

-Do what?
-You ditched me.

I didn't ditch you.

Yes, you did.
No one knew where you were.

Tell me something.

Am I here
to make your job easier,

Or is it the other way around?

Men's room's that way.

I'll grab you something to wear.

[soft, sinister music]

[knocks]

You decent?

[jonathan]
yeah, come on in.

I got you a men's large.

[sensual music]

That was fast.

I'm impressed.

Don't be, uh,
it's what we do around here.

Yep, these should work.

Yeah.

-Something wrong?
-Um, no.

Of course not.

I'll get these
cleaned for you

And get them
right back to you.

Thanks.

[sighs]

Charly.

Hey, listen to this.

Marine corps sergeant
jonathan makepeace

Is being called a hero
after saving three young women

From a suicide bomber.

Sergeant makepeace identified
the attacker as a threat

And used his body to shield
the women from the blast.

He's in stable condition
recovering from severe burns

To his right leg.

-Wow.
-He makes quite an impression,

Doesn't he?

He seems competent enough.

Not to mention
easy on the eyes.

Oh yeah? I hadn't noticed.

Really?

Well, if it weren't for our
strict sexual harassment policy,

I'd be all over that.

[phone ringing]

Yes?

[heavy breathing]

Hello?

[man's voice]
I'm gonna enjoy
watching you die.

[dramatic music]

He's in the building.

[dial tone beeping]

Wait, don't touch that.

I told you we needed
to take this seriously.

You were right.

[phone ringing]

Nobody saw anything,

And if they did
they're not saying.

Well, maybe we should just
fire the entire floor.

Let's not overreact.

We'll call the police,
check the cctv footage.

I'll get right on it.

In the meantime, you should take
the rest of the day off.

Are you sure
that's necessary?

I am.

Mr. Makepeace, would you please
escort ms. Huxton home?

Yes, ma'am.

Look.

For what it's worth...

I know I've been
taking you for granted

These past few months

And I'm sorry.

[soft music]

I'll make it up to you,
I promise.

[vehicle engine whirring]

About earlier
in the bathroom, I...

Forget it, forget it.

I just--I didn't mean
to embarrass you.

Don't worry, you didn't.

[soft music]

Apology accepted.

Does it hurt?

Only when I walk.

Nah, I'm just kidding.

The doctor told me
I lost so much nerve tissue

That he could stab me
with a knife,

I wouldn't feel a thing.

Not trying to test that out
any time soon though.

Look, 10-to-1, this is
just a disgruntled employee

But if it's not...

Who else might want
to see you dead?

[sighs]

You don't get to where I am
without stepping on a few toes,

But I can't believe someone
would hate me this much.

I did hear some drama
about a designer you fired.

Godfrey?

No, he doesn't have
the intestinal fortitude

For something like that.

What about a former husband?

You know, the media blew that
way out of proportion.

Dylan and I are just fine.

You sure?

Nobody holds a grudge
like an ex.

Speaking from experience?

Yeah.

I am.

That's why I like to keep
my love life simple.

No expectations,
no complications.

No one gets hurt.

Yeah, I feel exactly
the same way.

Is that why, uh...

[clears throat]

Captain hollywood
was your last relationship?

Who says he was?

-The internet.
-The internet.

That unimpeachable source.

Well, I will have you know

That I have dated plenty
of people since then.

Define plenty.

What, do you think I'm lying?

I think you're just
not telling the truth

Or you're stretching it--

Why is that so hard
to believe?

I'm no shrink, but...

If I were to guess,

After your marriage
fell apart

In front of the whole world,

You got scared and stopped
letting people in.

You think I'm scared
to put myself out there?

Let's just drop the subject.

No, no, we're not gonna drop it.

Why does everyone
seem to think

That I don't know
what I want?

When's the last time
you were on a date?

That's irrelevant.

How is that irrelevant?

Pull over.

-No.
-I said pull over.

-We're almost home.
-No, pull over now.

[soft music]

How's that for scared?

Doesn't prove anything.

[tense music]

What, you think I just go around
kissing all of my employees?

No, I think you were just trying
to win an argument.

Wow, you really are full
of yourself, aren't you?

Where are you going?

Home.

Like you said,
we're almost there, right?

Will you just wait a minute?

Just leave me alone.

Are--are you crying?

No, I'm not crying.

I'm a ceo for god's sake.

Yeah, sure,
the sun is in your eye.

Now you're making fun of me?

No, no, not--not at all,
not at all.

Look, I'm sorry for baiting you
back there.

It's just
something about you...

Brings it out of me.

Which is what exactly?

Sure you won't freak out?

[soft, tense music]

[tense music]

Tell me what you really think.

The truth.

[engine revving]

[tires screech]

[gunfire]

[tires screech]

Charly.

Charly.

Charly, can you hear me?

Lark, I'm fine.

No, the doctor said
it's not a concussion.

I really don't want to talk
about this right now.

I'll see you tomorrow, okay?

Bye.

All clear.

[soft music]

[sighs]

You should probably
get some rest.

I'm--I'm too wired
to sleep.

Where are you gonna be?

I got a pillow in the car.

-I'll be fine.
-You just saved my life.

I'm not gonna let you
sleep in the car.

Come on, get comfortable.

You hungry?

Uh, yeah, yeah.

I could eat.

I could get some takeout.

There's a great thai place
just down the street.

Yeah, yeah, that sounds great.

You know, we never actually
finished our conversation.

You were gonna tell me
what you really think.

Complete honesty, remember?

Yeah.

I remember.

I'm still waiting.

Okay.

I think that you act like

A tough-as-nails
master of the universe

Because you don't really
want people to know

How much you care.

And I get it, you know.

In the business world,
that can be seen as a weakness.

Not a shrink, huh?

Look.

I know you're not sick.

I know you were at the hospital
to see someone,

But you have no living family.

So, who were you there to see?

His name's ryan.

He has osteosarcoma,
bone cancer.

His mom is actually
an employee with us.

But she made one little mistake
on a form

And our hmo
won't cover his treatment.

And you're paying for it.

-Does his mother know?
-No.

And I want it
to stay that way.

That's very generous.

It's the right thing to do.

And I can afford it, so...

I bet sometimes
you feel all alone.

[laughs]

Please.

First I'm oppressed,
now I'm lonely.

You know,
that's the ultimate cliché

Of the powerful,
successful woman.

You know, charly...

You can deny it
all you want, but...

Still, you did kiss me.

[laughs]

You know, just because
I had a moment of weakness

Doesn't mean
I'm some lovesick maiden

Desperate for a man
to sweep me off my feet.

It's okay.

I get it.

I'm lonely too.

Now, wait a second. If you think
we're anything alike,

You must be out of your mind.

[traffic whirring]

[soft, tense music]

Tell me what happened.

He was her bodyguard.

You mean the one I hired

Specifically because
he's a screw-up?

Son of a bitch
nearly shot me.

He hit your car.

I was in the car!
I don't know why the hell

You had to hire him
in the first place.

Why do you think?

To give our shareholders
the appearance of due diligence

And to deflect suspicion.

[godfrey]
maybe from you. What about me?

You were wearing the mask?

Yes, and sunglasses.

It's only a matter of time.
They're gonna figure it out.

The security footage
from the office has been erased,

And the car can't be traced back
to either of us.

You need to relax.

Oh, that is so easy
for you to say.

I was almost killed.

Look, I did what you asked,

And now I want
what you promised.

The money, the promotion,
the stock options, all of it.

How do you know how to do that?

I watch a lot
of those crime-scene shows.

Well, then you know

The people always get caught.

Because they make
stupid mistakes.

I'm smarter than that.

Good luck with that.

Forget the money. I'm out.

No amount of money
is worth this.

I'm gonna go home,
drink an entire bottle

Of wild turkey, and try
to forget this ever happened.

Before you go,
I need your help with something.

Oh my god! What?

Bullets can be matched to
the gun that fired them.

In this case,
mr. Makepeace's weapon.

It's like a unique fingerprint.

No two are the same.

Yeah, so?

Now, this firearm
is quite similar

To the one carried
by mr. Makepeace.

[gunshot]

[gasping]

[dramatic music]

So I want to be sure
the bullet they dig out of you

Is from his gun, not this one.

[mellow music]

What's going on?

Everyone's acting
like somebody died.

I take it you haven't heard.

Heard what?

Godfrey's been murdered.

[solemn music]

[bright music]

[reporter]
and in the case
of godfrey lewis,

Fashion designer
found shot downtown,

The police have declined
to comment.

Oh my god, that's it,
that's the car.

-What car?
-The one that tried to run us

Off the road,
I remember that bumper sticker.

Are you saying godfrey
tried to kill you?

I can't believe it either.

I mean, he was a pain in my ass,
but, come on.

Maybe someone put him up to it.

Why would someone do that?

And who would kill him?

Could be the same person.

You know,
you two might have been

The last people
to see him alive.

I bet the cops
are gonna want to know

Where you two were last night.

[tense music]

-We are not sleeping together.
-It's just strictly business.

Glad to hear it,

Because the optics
wouldn't be good.

Our ceo violating her own
sexual harassment policy?

[footsteps approaching]

[police radio chatter]

Charly huxton?

Jonathan makepeace?

-Yes.
-That's right.

Detectives romero and baylor,

Metro homicide.

We need to ask you
some questions

About the murder
of godfrey lewis.

-Okay.
-Mr. Makepeace,

We have a warrant
to run an examination

On your firearm.

Is he a suspect?

Actually, ma'am, you both are.

Slow.

[evidence bag crinkling]

Is there a place
where we can talk in private?

[sighs]

[clearing throat]

So, after giving your statements
to the officer on the scene,

You went back to your house?

-Yes.
-Alone?

No, uh... Jonathan was with me.

[soft music]

And he was with you all night?

Yeah, we were together
all night.

Can anyone else
corroborate that?

Probably not.

No one saw us come in.

[tense music]

These are transcripts recovered

From the victim's phone.

As you can see,

They appear to be from you.

The language gets
very, uh, colorful.

No, I didn't write these texts.

You threatened to kill him
more than once.

-They're not even from my phone.
-No, they came from this one.

We found it in your desk drawer.

And before you object,
we had a warrant.

But it's a burner.

No contract, no fees.

[chuckling]

Completely anonymous.

Ballistic report just came back.

The bullet that killed mr. Lewis
in the parking lot last night

And the bullets that were fired
into the stolen sedan

Earlier today
all came from your gun.

How do you explain that?

Why would I do that?

Why would I go
to some parking lot

In the middle of the night
to meet with this person

That I'd never even heard of
until two hours ago?

And then, what, execute him?

Because he threatened
ms. Huxton,

Your employer-turned-lover,
that's why.

Ms. Embridge confirmed
your affair not ten minutes ago.

Look, the person
who was trying to run us down

Was wearing a ski mask.

We had no clue who it was

Until we saw his car
on the news this morning.

So you said in your report
about the drive-by.

I read it, but there was no mask
found on that scene.

It says your previous employer

Recently filed
an assault charge against you.

It seems you have a history
of using excessive force

When you feel
a woman's being threatened.

You know what I think?

I think ms. Huxton

Recognized godfrey lewis

When he tried to run her over

And ordered you to take him out,

And you just couldn't say no,

Could you, lover boy?

That's not what happened!

Did you hire mr. Makepeace
to kill godfrey lewis?

-No!
-Then why are you covering

For him killing godfrey lewis?

[dramatic music]

That's what happened. Stand up.

Stand up!

Charly huxton,
I'm officially charging you

With obstruction
until we can figure out

What your involvement is
with the death of godfrey lewis.

This is ridiculous.

We didn't have anything
to do with this.

Please stand up,
turn around,

Put your hands
behind your back.

Turn around, face the wall.

[music intensifying]

Put your hands up.

[smacking]

[intense music]

Oh my god!

Jonathan, what are you doing?

Wait!

Damn!

[groans]

Man, I wish I was young again.
You all right?

-Come on, let's go.
-Stop, stop!

Damn it!

[phone beeping]

[phone dialing]

This is lark embridge
from singular sportswear.

I think I've got
a story for you.

[engine revving]

Why are we running?

We can fight this in court.

Somebody's definitely
setting us up, for sure.

Okay, but who?

I don't know.

Who has access
to your office drawer?

Who knows godfrey well enough
to send him after us?

Who has the most to gain by
getting you out of the picture?

I don't know.

-Are we almost ready?
-Yes, let's go.

Ms. Embridge,
your former employee,

Godfrey lewis,
was murdered this morning.

Do you have any comment?

Godfrey was
a very talented designer,

But charly made it difficult
for him to do his job.

Like many highly successful
people in the public eye,

She doesn't believe
the rules apply to her.

Do you believe
the police theory

That ms. Huxton
ordered mr. Makepeace

To kill godfrey lewis?

[soft music]

[phone chimes]

All I know is that... Charly
is a deeply manipulative person

Who's used to getting
her own way.

What the hell?

[phone clattering]

Hey, that phone cost me $2,000!

Do you want the cops
to track us?

Oh my god,
why would she say that?

Greed can make people do
all sorts of things.

Do you think
she's behind all of this?

Okay, let's say lark
wants me dead.

Why would she hire godfrey,
a fashion designer, to do it?

I mean, what does she expect,
him to stab me to death

With a pair
of knitting needles?

I don't think she hired godfrey
to kill you.

-What do you mean?
-She hired him to scare us.

She wanted to give us
a reason to go after him.

Now, you hired me as your
bodyguard to take him out.

Her plan worked perfectly.

Well, I have more money
than her.

I still say
we can fight it in court.

You're being naive.

This isn't about you
against her.

This is about... Us
against a major corporation

That'll stop at nothing
to protect their brand.

This only ends one way,
unless...

Unless what?

Unless we figure out a way
to beat her at her own game.

Where are we going?

Someplace the cops
can't find us.

You can be
a little more specific.

Name's vargas.

We served together.
He owes me one.

[birds chirping]

So... Let me get this straight.

I've been seeing you guys
all over the news.

Cops like you for murder,

And you want to hide out
at my place.

That's right.

-No.
-Well, vargas, you owe me.

And how do you figure that,
jonny?

That bar in manila,
remember that?

Those airborne guys
woulda tore you apart

If I hadn't stepped in.

-Good times.
-Oh, yeah.

But, you see, that, uh,
little stunt you pulled

On that movie set,
well, that got us both fired.

So, as far as I'm concerned,
we're even.

[drinking]

I'll pay you.

Yeah, you just gonna run
down to an atm

-And make a withdrawal?
-Well, when all this is over,

I'll make sure you're
well compensated.

Okay, and when's that gonna be?

Just give me a rough timeline.

-This is a dead end.
-Hold on.

You're a gambling man,
right, vargas?

You play the odds.

If this pays off,
you're set for life.

If not, you can tell the cops
we held a gun to your head.

Two hundred thousand
once we get out of this.

Tell me one thing.

Did you do it?

-No.
-Then who did?

My former partner,
lark embridge.

Hm, some partner.

[soft music]

Look, we just need
a place to crash

For a couple of days,
then we'll be out of your hair.

[sighs]

This better be worth it, jonny.

I gotta get her car
off the street.

Put it in the garage.

Thank you.

[pouring]

[birds chirping]

You know, you don't have
to do this.

I want to.

Oh, it looks like it hurts.

Does that sting?

No, I've had much worse.

You're lucky that cop
didn't shoot you.

Yeah, well, it wouldn't
have been the first time.

When you were deployed, did...

Did you ever kill anybody?

Not that I know of.

-But I thought you...
-In combat,

I wasn't really focused
on the enemy.

I was more concerned
with bringing

The guys I was with
back home alive.

I guess that's why
I became a bodyguard.

You know...
If you hadn't let me

Have my way
with you last night...

Yeah?

We wouldn't be in this mess.

[chuckles]

You're one hell
of a trouble-maker,

Charly huxton.

So I've heard.

[phone ringing]

[phone beeps, he sighs]

Stavros, my man.

[news reporter]
tonight in breaking news...

No, but you know
I'm good for it.

[news reporter]
...Accused of murder.

Stands to lose billions?

Uh, no. No, no.

I... I don't have it yet.

But I'm working on it,
look, just...

Just give me till Monday, okay?

I will pay you double.

Just, look,
you will not regret this, okay?

[dreary music]

Hello? Stavros?

-You good?
-Yeah, yeah.

I just got a call
about some possible work,

So I'm gonna go check it out.

You two, just make yourselves
at home, all right?

[ominous music]

[splashing]

[mellow music]

There you are.

[water bubbling]

I guess we had the same idea.

You sure do know
how to find the right spots.

It's my job.

Charly?

Yeah?

You know I'm not interested
in you for your money, right?

Good, because after this...

I might not have any.

[laughing]

[ominous music]

This better be worth
the drive over here.

Don't worry, it is.

I know where they are.

So you said on the phone.

If you're just gonna
repeat yourself,

You can do it
on someone else's time.

Okay. Let's talk money first.

I'm willing to pay
a finder's fee

For this information,
providing it's solid.

Two hundred thousand, cash.

[laughing]

What is so funny?

That is chump change
for someone like you.

Hell, I bet you made a mint
just in the last couple days

Short-selling
your company's stock.

Come on.

[tense music]

One hundred thousand.

And I want more
than just information.
