Nate Ford.

Aah!

You know,
you could have --

Called first?

Yes, Mr. Ford.

I could have called first.

Chaz... put it away.

My name is Walt --

Whitman Wellesley IV.

Well-funded, on the board

of several corporations,
foundations.

I know who you are.

Good.

Then you know exactly
what's at risk

if you refuse
to help me.

Let me be very clear
about something.

I help people who have
nowhere else to go.

I help them
against people like you.

Thanks for coming.

But you must...

help me.

- Uh...
- I'm gonna...

- Maybe...
- I'm gonna go get Sophie.

Sophie, yeah.

My wife
has been kidnapped.

Missing
for four days now.

- But there's been no ransom.
- Not a word.

She's just... gone.

You poor man.

She's been missing
for four days,

and there's no evidence
of foul play.

The FBI has given up
on the case.

That's why you're here.
She left you, Wellesley.

- Nate, that's a bit harsh.
- What?

No, it isn't. Lacey would
never deliberately...

I know exactly
what this looks like.

Rich man marries
a woman half his age,

gets just what
he deserves, but --

- She was special.
- Is.

I was married
for 37 years.

My sons are grown --
grandkids, too.

When Dot died --
my first wife --

I was... bereft.

For two years, I just...
went through the motions.

I was just waiting
till I... stopped.

And then you met Lacey
and fell in love.

She changed me.

Restored me.

If you say so.

Whatever you want...

it's yours.

Just... find my wife.

Please.

I can find your wife.

But you're gonna have
to do something for me --

a favor, in the future.

You have power, influence --
something I might find useful.

Done.

The rich and powerful
take what they want.

We steal it back for you.

Sometimes, bad guys
make the best good guys.

We provide...

Go ahead, say it.
Go ahead.

- I-I'm just saying he loves her.
- Saying what? Oh, come on.

Men like that treat people
like possessions.

- You should know that.
- Oh, just because he's rich

doesn't mean he's heartless.

- Of all people, you're actually --
- He was wrecked.

- No, wrecked. I mean --
- You don't have a romantic bone in your body.

- Oh.
- Oh, really?

And you're one
to laugh.

You don't even bother
to learn their names.

They're just waitress,
nurse, stewardess.

First of all, it's
flight attendant, all right?

They don't like
being called stewardess.

And, second,
I know their names.

You guys having
a three-way?

- What?
- What?

Three-way fight?

All right, guys.

Walt Whitman Wellesley IV.

Now, he does look

like every other soulless CEO
we've taken down before,

but to be honest, this guy
gave away more dollars last year

than Bill and Melinda Gates.

He comes from old money.

I'm talking like "his ancestors
invested in IBM

while coming over
on the Mayflower" old.

Okay. Now, what about
the lovely wife, Lacey?

Lovely?
She ain't lovely.

Lacey Beaumont --
she met her future husband

at a charity function
in the Hamptons.

But get this --
she bought old boy

at one of those
bachelor auctions.

They get married
less than a month later.

See?
Love at first sight.

Yeah, or she wanted
to get hitched

before the background check
went through.

Yeah, thank you. Okay. So she's
been missing for four days.

What can you tell me
about that time period?

Well, there's
no activity

on the credit cards
or the bank accounts,

but going back to...

Got a lot of cash withdrawals,
over $2 million-plus,

all transferred to the same account.
Find me that bank.

Bank's in the Hamptons,
but...

Oh, that account was emptied
and closed four days ago.

All right, all right, all right.
She's a grifter.

But it doesn't mean that Wellesley's
feelings aren't genuine.

Oh, come on.

Look, guys,
sweetheart scams like this

usually take, what,
six months, right, to pull off?

This is
a land-speed record.

Here's a list
of other wealthy men

who married within a month
of meeting their spouses.

That's a lot
of mysterious accidents.

And they each seem to have met
at one of these functions.

Well, that's
Lacey's pattern.

Yeah, well, it looks like Lacey might
be a black widow. I'm just saying.

Yeah, she may not
have killed Wellesley,

but she's out there,
spinning her web.

Mm-hmm.

Now, there's
another charity function

tomorrow
in the Hamptons.

Same deal --
live and silent auctions,

real high-end vendors.

And when you compare it
to your others...

Everybody, pack your bags.
We're going to a party.

Let's go steal
a sweetheart.

No? A widow.

- Unh-unh.
- No? Spider?

Spider.

Lacey will have changed
her name and appearance --

different hair,
colored contacts.

More than that -- if she's
as good as we think she is,

then she can change
her skin type with makeup,

her body shape with clothing,
create a whole new person.

Parker, any luck?

No matches
on Hardison's software yet.

Ooh. Sparkly.

Parker, no burgling.

But these jewels --

they're just asking
to be taken.

Ladies and gentlemen,

our annual bachelor auction
is about to begin!

I know, I know. You're excited.

Now let's dig deep
into those unallocated funds.

Remember, it's for charity.

Steak dinner to whoever gets
the highest bid?

I'm in.

All right ladies.

Are we ready
for our next bachelor?

Lacey should be among
the high bidders.

Parker and I will drive the bids
higher by countering.

Eliot, pick a bidder
and maintain eye contact.

Paying attention to one
will cement the bid

and put all the others off.

Yeah, I got it.

Then let's meet Austin, Texas,
native Jackson Cooper!

Austin, Texas?

Did you write that?

All right.

Now, not only is Jackson
the founder of Baren Oil,

he also led
the underwater team

that capped the well
in the Gulf.

Oh, yes.

So we are gonna start
this auction off at $1,000.

Do I hear $1,000?

$1,000 right away.
Very good.

$1,500.
Looking for $1,500.

in the front.

Looking for $3,500.
Come on, ladies, don't be shy.

Do I have $4,000?

Thank you, Sophie.

We got $10,000 right here.

That's $10,000 going once.
$10,000 going twice.

And sold to this lovely lady
up front.

Enchanté.

- Ooh. French.
- Photo for the society page?

You want to take
a picture?

- Ooh.
- I got you.

Ooh. Klutz.

Parker, any luck?

Got photos of every girl
Lacey's age. Still no match.

Ooh. Lovely.

That's right, ladies.

Let's give it up
for our last eligible bachelor,

Mr. Steven Melching.

Come on, Steven.

Steven comes to us

straight from his compound
in Silicon Valley.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

So, we're gonna start
this auction off at $1,000.

$1,000 from the enthusiastic
lady in the front.

We're looking for $1,500.

$1,500 up back there. $1,500.
Looking for $2,000.

$2,000, thank you.
Looking for $2,500.

Going for --
$2,500 over there.

- $3,000. Looking for $3,000.
- Ooh.

$3,000 right here.
$3,500 over here.

- Thank you.
- Parker.

Looking for $4,000.

Parker, Parker.

- Parker, put your hand up.
- Looking for $4,000, anybody.

You -- you --

- You better bid.
- Anyone.

What? I'm up. It's up.
Just watch her.

Keep your eyes on her.
There's a steak.

Mmm.
Steak for you.

$4,000 right there.
There we go.

$4,000. $4,500, anyone?
Anyone?

$4,500 right here.
Looking for $5,000.

Where's $5,000?
Do I hear $5,000, anyone?

Anyone, $5,000?
$6,000, right here.

$6,000. $6,500 right here.

- Ooh!
- $7,000. $7,000. Thank you.

$7,500 up front here.

$8,000 in the back there.
Looking for $8,500.

$8,500 right --

Ladies and gentlemen,
we have a bid for $15,000.

Ooh!

You say $15,000?

I'm gonna say sold
right here!

- Well done, brother.
- I'll be damned.

- How you doing?
- Hi!

I'm getting me a steak dinner.
Steak-umms.

Remember when women
had dignity?

Ah, yes.

Mystery and allure, too --

things of the past,
I'm afraid.

I'm Meredith.

Ah. Lady Charlotte Prentice.

- Oh, duchess, may I, for the society page?
- Of course.

Oh, well, I -- I should, uh,
go take a photo

of the highest bidder
with her prize.

Nice meeting you.

You bid $15,000? Wow.

That sure is a lot.

- May I?
- You sure? $15,000?

- Oh!
- Whoa.

Oh. They're all klutzes.

- Oh.
- Excuse me.

- Thank you. You're so strong.
- Oh.

Wait.
They're all klutzes.

She tripped, too.
That's odd.

You have...
the bluest eyes.

What?

- Ohh!
- Ohh!

Hey. How you doing?
You okay?

I'm -- I'm so sorry.
I-I just wasn't looking.

Ah, looks like the working girl
could use a drink.

Working girl?

I'm sorry. I-I didn't mean it
like that. I was...

50-year-old balmoor. Mmm.

Yes, it is, indeed.
Cask strength.

You know,
you're a lousy vendor.

You could have saved
a lot of money diluting this

without anyone
the wiser.

Money's not
one of my worries.

Really?

Outrageous.

Hmm?

A lovely lady like you
going thirsty.

- Oh.
- Unacceptable.

- Oh?
- Champagne?

Look at that.

Lady Charlotte Prentice.

Oscar San Guillermo.

I organize these fundraisers
for the local charities.

Not a fan?

Oh, it's not that.
I just --

I know, I know.
It's a little over the top,

but separating all these
rich people from their money

for a good cause --
that's forgivable, isn't it?

I'd say.

To old friends
and new.

Ha.

Ooh.

Your eyes are so deep.

E-excuse me one moment,
please. Sorry.

Everyone, listen up.

This technique, the staring --
it's called soul-gazing.

Just two minutes of it can
create real feelings of love.

- Ooh!
- It's oaky.

Nate, the tripping,
the soul-gazing --

it's every seduction technique
in the book.

They're all on script --
every single one of them.

So true.

That's right.

Not bad.

The women --
they're all grifters.

We came here looking
for one Lacey.

We stumbled across
an entire ring of Laceys.

No wonder the meet-to-marry time
is so quick.

Anyone would be
susceptible to this.

It's like an assembly line
of grift.

I have never tried that.

- Oh, I'm gonna get you -- okay.
- Thanks.

Sophie, okay.
I can't talk right now.

You got to take point,
okay,

and try to get us
some information.

Parker?

Huh?

Are you up
to doing some lifts?

Oh, goody.

Just phones.
We're only gonna clone them.

- Fine.
- I'll meet you in the lobby in five minutes.

Guys, distract the women.
Get close to them.

Create some heat.

- How'd you swing that?
- Yeah.

Y-you know...

Let me get to know you
real quick.

- All right...
- Oh. Oh, yeah.

- Yeah.
- All right.

Okay.

Just very, very...

Let me
tell you something.

I own a vineyard
in the south of France.

Nate, no names,
no addresses,

nothing to lead us
to Lacey,

and all the calls
are from today.

Yeah, not even GPS.
They're burners.

It's definitely a ring.

Let's think about this.

Every ring has a leader,
someone calling the shots.

And to grift
on this scale,

that leader's
gonna be here to supervise.

I know I would.

You know, these women sometimes
kill their marks.

I know,
but first things first --

we need to find out
who that leader is.

Nate, we need
a disruption,

give us a chance
to see how they interact.

- Just a second. Be right back.
- Mm.

I mean, it could
give us a clue.

Parker, pick a fight
with Hardison's date.

- Yeah.
- Yeah, sure.

Are you kidding me?

Parker! He didn't mean
a literal fight.

He meant
start an argument.

What?!

Hey! He said distract her,
not beat her ass.

- What are you --
- Let's go, miss.

You gonna stand there and let
her get her ass whupped?

Where's your
new lady friend?

Come here, sweetie.
That was terrible.

I can't believe
she did that here.

Nice job of flushing out
the leader.

Meredith's the ring leader.
I should have seen that.

The camera's the perfect cover for
watching her girls in action.

And she's gonna have files.

We find those,
we take down the ring.

- And Lacey.
- Yeah.

I'm thinking
a Hohe Minne variant.

I like your thinking.

You're not a society
photographer, are you?

And you're not a purveyor
of fine spirits.

Hey, why don't we think of this
as a happy accident?

You didn't know
we were gonna be here.

We didn't know
you were gonna be here.

All right? But there's plenty
to go around. Come on.

- You want to partner up?
- Not a bad idea.

You know, you're obviously great
with the gentlemen,

and we can handle
the ladies, so... win-win.

I don't know you
or what you're capable of.

Listen, you might be queen
of the Hamptons,

but I have fleeced
more divorcées and widows

than you could shake
a stick at, huh?

That's me, okay?
Yeah.

So, uh, I could get any lady
I want -- anyone.

Prove it.

Here's your coat, ma'am.

No, um...
that's not mine.

Mine's a-a silk shawl.

I'm Meredith.

Oh. Lady Charlotte Prentice.

- Oh, duchess, may I, for the society page?
- Of course.

That woman at coat check --
she's a real duchess.

You get her to go out with you
within the next 24 hours,

I'll watch you work
and make a determination.

No time
like the present.

Duchess.

Huh.

Now, at least have
a drink with me.

Oh, thank you.

Gonna have to try a bit harder
than that.

Looks like someone got
a head start.

Tomorrow,
call that number.

Once you've made your move,
I'll be there.

Eliot, I want you
to follow Sophie.

Hardison, you track Meredith.

They went out the east door,
both of them. Now.

All right,
Lacey's in the system

because she was
reported missing,

but the others are not.

So I think if...

Uh...

All right, all right.

Listen, next time,
I promise,

I'll use the word "argument"
instead of "fight."

- Promise.
- Okay.

- Hey.
- Hey.

So...

I-I lost Meredith's town car,
but I hacked the GPS.

Assuming that she keeps files,

they're probably at her home
or her office, if she uses one.

We find those records,
we could take down

Meredith, Lacey,
and the whole ring.

Now, based
on recurrence of location

and calculating
duration of stay,

according to time codes,
I have for you two addresses.

Okay, Parker, listen.

Tomorrow, while I'm running
the Hohe Minne scam,

I want you to check out
these addresses.

What's a Hohe Minne?

Oh, German --
means "high courtly love."

In the middle ages,

a knight would
undergo challenges

to prove himself worthy
of a noblewoman's love.

Sure seems like a lot of work.
I'm just saying.

Hey, man, why do you have
Sophie's comm muted?

Don't you want to hear
how she's doing?

- That's funny.
- Uh, not really.

What?

Sophie's real laugh.

- Mm.
- Oh, I get it.

She's not the noblewoman.
She's the challenge.

Hmm?

Oh! Awake! I'm awake.

That was...

kind of a long time there.

Well, San Guillermo
asked me out.

I had to make it
look real.

If I had turned him down,

Meredith might have suspected
that I was in your crew,

or she could have had
someone watching me

from the moment she picked me
out as your mark.

Anyway, Oscar gives you
some healthy competition...

- Oscar?
- Helps sell the con.

What? Are you jealous?

Hmm?
Just a little bit?

Hmm?

I was busy.

What's with all this laughing and
stuff that was going on?

What, mm? Busy listening in
on comms, I hope.

No, but I -- you were --

You had that kind of like "ha."

Getting a few tips and ideas
from Oscar?

What ideas?

Well,
ideas about romance

and setting the mood

and seduction
and compliments

and... mm, dating stuff.

Okay. First of all, I know
how to do all that stuff.

I know what all that's about.
And I know how to date.

I've dated before, Sophie.
I -- it's how we --

No. I mean, we haven't
defined what we are.

But we're
definitely not dating.

- Okay, but --
- Listen, you want to get close to Meredith,

then you don't have to actually,
you know, seduce me.

You just have
to convince her

that you're capable of seducing
me, make it believable.

Okay. Here's what --
here's what we're gonna do.

We're gonna set up a --
a meet cute, all right?

And, um -- and I'm gonna
start by saying, "hey" --

No, Nate, Nate, Nate.
No, no, no, no, no.

- You can't script this. No.
- What? Why not?

I -- well, if -- if I know
what your approach is,

then my reactions --
they're not gonna be genuine.

No, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no.

It has to be a real date,

and you, my friend,

have to be very...

very...

charming.

Ah.

- How do you get this --
- Mnh-mnh-mnh-mnh-mnh-mnh-mnh.

No. I'm sorry.

I have to get
my beauty sleep.

I have a very hot date
with Oscar tomorrow.

Tick, tock.

All right, this emcee guy's
name's Oscar San Guillermo.

No priors.

He picked Sophie up
at 7:20,

and they went to
a, uh...

Swank Bar on Third.

He had two mojitos.

She had a 2008 Pouilly-Fuissé.
What?

Did you get the name
of the restaurant?

- I just said it was Swank.
- Why do you have to editorialize?

They left Swank at 8:15.

They went to a place
called La Dolce Vita.

They got seated immediately,
which is pretty outstanding,

considering it's a two-week wait
just to get in there.

At 11:30, they left.

They scheduled a brunch, and he
brought her straight home.

That's the end.

Reservations today are
at La Chateau Lyon.

Oh, geez.
It's La Châtillon.

Châtillon.

Three-star Michelin rating.

It's got a solid 29 Zagat.

I mean, this San Gui, he's
got -- he's got good taste, man.

San Gui?

Yeah, short
for San Guillermo.

He prefers it to Oscar.

Ahh. What a day.

Yes. What a day.

Sometimes it's fun to kick a man
when he's down. We set?

Oh, sure, right.

Speaking of which, did you
ever find that steak place?

- The bet's off.
- What you mean the bet's off?

The second that we found out they
were grifters, the bet's off.

That doesn't count.
You didn't set --

Page 189, rule number 7
in the bro handbook.

What? There wasn't no rules.
You didn't set any rules.

The bet is off
in a situation where --

- I'll be damned if it's off.
- All right, then!

I'll make you some prime rib
when this is over.

Bone in, well-done?

- Well-done, bone in.
- All right.

Man, I love it when restaurants
get all corporatey on me.

Hacking into La Châtillon's reservation
and employee schedule list

was a morceau
of gâteau.

We are in.

All right, man,
work starts in an hour.

You are the sous chef.

I am the sommelier visiting
from the South African winery.

- Sommelier?
- Sommelier.

- Again?
- Yes.

Do you want me to teach you
about the wines again?

That's just hurtful.

Just -- just making
assumptions and presumptions

that I don't know what I'm --

Yes, I need you to teach me
about the wines again, yes.

Oh.

Your sommelier will be with you
shortly to pour the malbec.

- Enjoy.
- Thank you.

So lovely.

- Bon appétit.
- Thank you.

You look like you're
enjoying yourself.

I assume this little gift
is from you, Meredith.

That's a two-way
transmitter.

I can hear
everything you say

and everything she says,
so no cheating.

Now impress me.

Will you be having one of
the brunch selections, sir?

I will.
Flight of reds, please.

Have you changed
your mind?

No, no! No, no.

I was just wondering, also,
if I could maybe get

a five-letter word
from you

for "makes one's hair
stand on end."

It's...

La Châtillon does not have
words on the menu, sir.

Enjoy.

You seem a little
distracted.

Oh.

Hello. Hello.

This is the Argentine malbec.

It is characterized

by its intense fruity flavor
and deep plum color,

while it does not have

tan-tan-tan...

T-tannic -- tannic structure.

Tannic structure
of a French malbec...

Whose texture
is more plush,

they have been known to show
a similar aging potential.

You didn't even say
the whole thing, Hardison.

Hey, come here. Stop.

That's -- no. No, go.

Put -- sprinkle some sea salt.
Just a little salt.

Guys, the first address --
it's a marina.

I can't search every boat
for Meredith's files.

I'm heading
to the second address.

Parker,
we're counting on you.

The whole date side of this con
can go either way.

Enjoy.

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh.

Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm so -- I'm so sorry.

- Oh, my gosh.
- No, it's all right.

Oh, that's a good idea. That works.
That works. I've tried that.

- No, no, no. That's enough. Enough.
- Let me -- let me take this.

- May I --
- Let me --

I said enough!

You've done enough.
Thank you.

Sorry.

I...

Uh, excuse me, duchess.

I, uh... think
I'll be a while.

Stay right there.

I -- I...

Ugh!
What an idiot.

- Allow me.
- Thank you, sir.

Oh. Thank you.

I'm so embarrassed.

I, um -- I didn't... prepare
for this situation.

Yeah, it's all right.

I don't often get to play
the white knight.

Gus McAvoy,
distributor.

Oh. Scottish?

Eh, on my father's
father's side.

Oh. Please, join me.

Oh, thank you very much.

Lady Charlotte Prentice.

Lady Charlotte Prentice.
That's lovely.

Tease.

Excuse me?

Five-letter word,
makes your hair stand up.

Oh, right.
Well, look at that.

It's the key
to the whole thing.

Listen, would you like to,
um... get some dessert?

There's this wonderful
Italian-ice place

down by the water.

I hear it puts
La Châtillon's sorbet to shame.

Sounds good.

Yeah?

Nice hook.

Now let's see
if you can land her.

Hey, brother,
here's a $20, man.

Can you play something
romantic?

Something to kind of
mix it up a little?

He's one of yours.
Very nice. Setting the mood.

All right, Parker,

you got
that second address yet?

Yeah, I'm in.

There's not much here.

No wall safe.

I'll check the computer
and the hard-copy files.

Let's just sit
right over here.

Oh.

That was a mistake.

The ice plus the shade
will give her a chill.

Game over.
Nice meeting you.

Oh, here,
let me, uh...

Clever boy. Always thinking
ahead, aren't you?

Eliot, there's nothing here.
It's just a front.

There's not even a computer
to hook up to the monitor.

Hang on a second.
There's a portrait.

It's Lacey.

She signed it, "thanks for
everything. Heart, Julie."

But...

facial-recognition app
confirms it's her.

Eliot, that is
our first solid lead.

Look, if Lacey signed
that photo, she's touched it.

That's my thinking, too.
Parker, grab the photo.

We might be able to tell
something from it.

- We're close to being done here.
- Yeah, I got it.

It still only says, "thanks
for everything. Heart, Julie."

Oh.

Ah. Here you go.

Hey, it's best
to keep the ball

right in front of you,
always.

Sweet.

How did you arrange that?

Did you ever play catch
with your father?

Nah. No.

No, we went to, uh, Fenway
pretty much every year,

went to a lot of games.

He loved baseball.

You had that, at least.

We sat there in the stands
with our gloves,

waiting for a foul ball.

Then he was just --
wasn't Jimmy.

You know, he was --
he was my dad.

I mean, he didn't give me much,
but he --

he gave me that.

Well, it can't have been all bad
if he passed on his passion,

even if that passion's
for a sport

that's not quite cricket.

- Cricket?
- What? I know my cricket.

Give me a batsman,
a couple of balls,

and... you'll see
if I can't outstump him.

You really are
beautiful.

Hmm.

- Let's go.
- Mm-hmm.

Okay. Meredith is
off comms. Parker?

I'm here.
Is Sophie ready?

Eliot, Hardison, we need
to analyze that portrait.

Meet me at the car.
Time to get a move on.

I thought that's what you
have been doing.

Listen.

I picked you.

I didn't pick the others.

Hardison, Parker, Eliot --
I picked you.

All right?

I am impressed.

Oh.

Seems we have terms
to discuss.

A new partnership
to celebrate.

Excellent.
Uh... where should we meet?

My car's
just right over --

Get in.

Okay.

Looks like Meredith's town car
is headed for the marina.

I can track the GPS,
but Nate's still off comms.

I don't like it. This woman's
left a lot of bodies in the road.

Yeah, but Nate's not a mark.
No, it's perfect.

He gets close to Meredith,
gets access to her files,

- while we all --
- Get all "CSI" on the picture.

Yeah.

Try that one.

No.

Try that one.

It's Lacey.

Okay, it matches
a Christine Valada.

Now, look, it says
Lacey/Christine's address

is just a few minutes
from here.

It's Sunday.
I bet she's home.

Yeah. Let's pay Christine Valada
a visit, shall we?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Parker, slow down!

Parker!

So, come on, 75/25 --
that your best offer?

Take it or leave it.

Yeah, well, you know, you put it
like that, I'm all-in.

This is it.

Nice boat.

It was my late husband's.

Permission
to come aboard.

Granted.

This is not
what I expected.

Me neither.

Hello? Hello?

Hi, there.

Hi.

Hi. Christine Valada?

Yes, that's me.
What can I do for you?

Also Lacey Beaumont Wellesley?

No.

I didn't -- please!

I didn't contact him,
I swear.

Oh, please.

Please tell me
you haven't hurt Walt.

We're not here
to hurt anybody.

We're here to find you.
Wellesley sent us.

Don't you think
we should get a photo

to commemorate
this momentous occasion?

Plenty of time
for that later.

Ho!

Now, I have a feeling
that you know

as much about your champagne
as you do your whiskey.

I find it useful
to be conversant.

Ah, yes.

I suppose it would be
remiss of me not to mention

that I already have
a partner.

San Gui. Yes, I hear you
prefer that to Oscar.

Yeah.

Well, well.

So, you told Meredith
you were done.

You wanted out.

Once I'd sent her
$2 million,

I -- I figured she'd allow me
to go my own way.

You underestimated
her greed.

I underestimated
her fear.

My falling in love
with a mark

meant she could
no longer trust me.

Oh. She thought you were gonna
tell your husband everything.

If I so much
as contacted Walt,

he'd meet with
some terrible accident.

Just like
her late husbands did.

She was right.

I would have
told him the truth.

I just hadn't gotten up
the courage yet.

Do you let them
hate the real you

or love the fake you?

You're saying
you didn't know anything

about her killing these guys
going in.

No.

I didn't put it
all together

until they threatened me
with Walt.

I'd never have joined her crew
if I'd known.

Hand them over.

What...

There you go.

What?

Oh.

There.
Here we are.

Guys, we have
a mayday situation.

Nate's comm just went online
and off again.

His GPS is dead, too.

You FBI?

No. No, no.
I'm not a -- I'm not a fed.

I'm a thief.

Thought if I could get close
enough to your files,

I could maybe, you know,
use your marks

or one or two of your girls
to start my own scheme.

His last-known coordinates
were the marina.

Yeah, and I still never solved
the waterproofing problem.

Look, the comms still go out
when they're submerged in water.

Parker, you're with me.

As good as you are,

you're not nearly as good
as you think you are.

It's obvious you don't have
what it takes to do what I do.

What -- what is it, exactly,
you think I'm lacking?

Ruthlessness.

You're far too vulnerable
and open.

I've watched you
with the duchess.

You're half in love
with her already,

falling prey to
the very techniques you employ.

Hey, you mean
falling in love.

There's no such thing
as love.

Sorry, buddy.

Olly olly oxen free.

Oh, you're good.

So I've been told.

I never suspected you at all,
not for a moment.

Of course not.

As good as you are,

you're not nearly as good
as you think you are.

I destroyed his ear bud
before I said that.

How did you...

I heard you go over.

If not you, then wh--

Yeah.

Come on.

Fisticuffs? Really?

All right.

Let's go.

What do you want, 50/50?
60/40?

I wasn't lying when I said
I was after your records.

I'll never give them up.

Ah.

But you already have.

As good as you are,

you're not nearly as good
as you think you are.

Okay, good. It's there.
It's all there.

All the data --
I'm e-mailing it now to Nate.

Right now, all your details
are being sent

to every rich and powerful mark
you have on file.

Oh, and your fingerprints --

already been forwarded
to the authorities,

just in case they want
to look into the deaths

of all those
late husbands.

If I were you,
I'd start running.

Now.

Ha!

Shall we?

Thank you.

Mmm!

Let's get out
of here.

True love does exist.

May it always prevail.

- Hear, hear.
- Slainte.

Looking
for a Miss Devereaux.

Mm. That's me.

And a Parker.

Ooh. Ooh. These ones?

Yeah. That's for you.

- There you are.
- Thanks.

I take it all back.

Mwah. Every word.

- You are romantic.
- Ooh.

Oh. They're beautiful.

It eats flies.

Huh. A plant
that does something.

That's nice.
Thanks.

Should I feed it mice,
like a snake?

Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- They're my favorite.
- It's got teeth.

Smell.

Uh, they smell nice?

It doesn't
really smell.

I don't recognize
this number,

which means you shouldn't be
talking to me.

A call to arms, Mr. Ford.

In my dealings,

I've discovered an innocent
who's been wronged.

An engineer's invention
was stolen

by a corporation.

If you and your team
acquire the patent,

you can prove the company
owes him millions.

You make a few investments
ahead of time,

bet against
our opponents.

A finder's fee.
You punish. I profit.

Well, it sounds tempting,
Latimer, I'll give you that.

Something I want,
no downside.

Problem is,
I've made that offer

a hundred times
to a hundred marks.

I know a con
when I spin one.

No, thanks.

We could have been friends,
Mr. Ford.

I don't need any friends,
Latimer.

Ah.

He wouldn't take the job.

You do that, it's war.

Well, war it is, then.
