We need home court advantage, which is you in the safe house

and him thinking you're alone.

Hamlin: You two are soulless.

I'm going to dedicate my life to making sure

that everybody knows the truth.

How?

Howard.

Howard, you need to leave.

There's really no need to --

I never turned on you. I didn't. Never!

I only worked for you in the desert.

I was on your side the whole time.Shhhh.

♪

I don't care.

You two.

[Chuckling] God.

You two and your mouths.

Dios mío.

Now. You listen.

My car's downstairs.

Press the clicker, and you'll find it.

This is where you are going.

Don't speed, don't weave,

don't cut anyone off. Just, you know, drive nice.

From here, at this hour, I'd take Forty East.

Get off at Carlisle. Take the third left.

The rest, I drew a little map for you on the back.

It's not hard.

So, big white brick house with a solid black door.

You can't miss it. It's right at the end of the T.

Park a little down the street, not out in front.

It's a quiet neighborhood, so you'll have plenty of options.

Stating the obvious here, maybe, but turn the car off, right?

So in the glove compartment, I left you a present.

There's a camera. And there's a gun.

And you're gonna need both.

A gun?Yeah, yeah, yeah, but don't worry.

I mean, it's -- it's very easy.

It's a revolver. It's already loaded, no safety.

It's idiot-proof.

So you go up to that house,

you walk right up to that black door.

Don't run, just be casual, like a stroll, you know?

Keep the gun somewhere behind you where they can't see it.

You ring the bell. You count to three.

You step back.

They look through the peephole, you're as innocent as can be.

Door opens, you point and you shoot.

And you keep on pulling that trigger until it's empty.

Simple.

Y-You want me to --

I know, I know,

you're a lawyer and not a killer.

But, look, you can do this, okay?

This guy? He's a housecat.

Black, medium height. Short hair. Glasses.

He kinda looks like a librarian.

But don't be fooled.

Even a housecat can scratch.

So, that's it.

Hard part's over. Now you pull out the camera.

Same principle as the gun, point and shoot.

Take a picture, one where I can see the face.

Clearly.

And then you bring it back here,

where me and Mrs. Goodman will be waiting for you.

And then you're done!

I'd say it's about a twenty minute drive over there,

twenty minutes back.

Maybe ten minutes to do the job...

Let's call it an hour all together.

So, you're back here in an hour or...

Send her.

What?She should do it.

Jimmy.

Why her?

[Whispering] Don't do this.

Don't do this.This guy, the, uh -- the housecat.

[Sniffles]Jimmy, please.

He looks through his peephole in the middle of the night.

And he sees me?

[Breathing shakily]"Who's this asshole?

What's he doing here?" Maybe -- Maybe he gets his gun.

Maybe he calls the cops.

Either way, that door stays shut.

Mnh-mnh.But. He sees a woman?

Mnh-mnh. No.She looks like she's in distress.

Maybe her car broke down.Mnh-mnh.

Phew. I mean, you'd open the door for her, wouldn't you?

Stop. Stop.

Yeah, but... she's really clever.

How do I know she's gonna stick to the plan?

She will.No, no, no, no.

No, no. No cops.

You know she will. No.

Look, this doesn't even make any sense.

I-I've, uh -- I've never shot a gun before.

I've never even held one.Like I have?

Jimmy, what are you doing?

You know she's the best choice.

No, I'm not! I-I-I can't!

I can't do it. She can do it.

You know she can do it.No, Jimmy.

I'll stay. Stop.You know I'm right!

Just stop. Just stop it.Listen --

Shut up! Shut up!Oh, my God. Okay, fine, yeah. Her.

Whatever. Give her the keys.

Give her the address. Let's go.

[Breathing heavily]

Don't. Don't.

You gotta go.

[Crying] No.

No, don't. Don't.

Mr. Fring!

I just walked through the door.

I'm not running late, am I?

Gus: No, Lyle. Punctual as always.

Oh, okay. Good. Uh, what can I do for you, sir?

I won't be in today, I'm sorry to say.

In fact, you won't be seeing me all week.

I've been called out of town. Family emergency.

Oh, no. I'm -- I'm so sorry.

Uh, is there anything I can do?

Do you need a ride to the airport?

Nothing like that.

I need you to act as store manager in my stead.

Unfortunately, at this late date,

this will require you to both open and close

today and tomorrow.

Sure. Yes. I can do that.

Would you be able to set next week's schedule

by close tomorrow?

I like to give the employees time to prepare.

I'll take care of it. Don't give it a thought.

I will adjust your pay for the extra hours upon my return.

I hope that that is acceptable.

Of course. Not a problem.

Uh, if there's anything else I can do,

like anything at all, just please let me know.

I know I have nothing to worry about.

The restaurant is in your capable hands.

Well, safe travels, Mr. Fring.

Goodbye, Lyle.

He's not coming.No. But he said he was.

He told me --You understand me.

He is not coming back.

Let's sit.

Sit.

Alright, here's what's gonna happen.

In a few days, Howard Hamlin's car will be found.

Several states away, by the water.

The odometer will have rolled

to the exact number of miles it took to get there.

There will be cocaine in the upholstery.

That's the story you were setting up for this guy, yeah?

They'll call it a suicide,

hoping the body will come washing up.

It never will.

At some point, you're gonna hear about it --

someone calls you, someone at the courthouse mentions it.

The moment that happens, you call the cops.

His car was here for hours last night --

good chance somebody noticed it.

That means you are the last people to see him alive.

Cops are gonna wanna hear from you.

You tell the cops you saw him. He came here.

Seemed like maybe he was chemically altered.

Didn't make a lick of sense.

Then he left. That's all you know.

You keep telling the lie that you've been telling.

Now, Ms. Wexler tells me she has court at ten.

What's on your docket?

Hey. Listen.

Where do you need to be?

Uh...office. My office.

Clients start showing up around nine-thirty.

Oh, my car's gone.

No. It's on the way home.

You'll have it when you need it.

So, you two are gonna go about your day.

Normal. Same as ever.

Today, you're Meryl Streep and Laurence Olivier.

No staring into space.

Nothing out of the ordinary. You cover.

Anybody talks to you,

it's just another day that ends in "y," that's all.

When you get home, we'll be gone

and everything will be back the way it was.

Now, I need to impress upon you --

none of this ever happened.

None of it.

Understand?

Say it out loud. I need to hear it.

We understand.

It never happened.

Alright, I'm gonna go out there and you're gonna get ready.

Before I shut that door,

is there anything you need from the other room?

Toiletries? Clothes? Anything to start your day?

No.

We're set.
