Look, about that...

186
00:09:36,401 --> 00:09:38,142
Listen. You don't owe me
an explanation.

187
00:09:38,186 --> 00:09:40,623
Whatever's going on
between you and that guy,

it's none of my business.

Why do you think there's a guy?

190
00:09:44,714 --> 00:09:46,760
Well, for starters,
you were in a disguise,

191
00:09:46,803 --> 00:09:48,152
and it ain't Halloween.

192
00:09:50,154 --> 00:09:51,634
Okay, yeah, there's a guy.

193
00:09:51,678 --> 00:09:53,375
But it's a complicated.

194
00:09:53,418 --> 00:09:55,029
Is it?

'cause you don't.

197
00:09:59,642 --> 00:10:00,774
You're right.

198
00:10:00,817 --> 00:10:03,080
I don't get why
a smart girl like you

199
00:10:03,124 --> 00:10:05,605
would let some jerk
humiliate her.

200

to learn the truth behind her
husband's mysterious collection.

there was a simple explanation.

We need to talk.

They're mementos.

Things that once belonged

People who are now dead.

If they were alive,
I wouldn't need mementos.

263
00:14:16,420 --> 00:14:18,596
If they're
just harmless keepsakes,

264
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,250
then why do you hide them
in the attic?

265
00:14:20,294 --> 00:14:21,773
You're very emotional.

00:14:21,817 --> 00:14:23,210
Well, of course I'm emotional.

Your friend Maisie Moran.

So I looked up her address.

But it was too late for a chat.

for you.

a perfectly logical explanation

284
00:15:03,859 --> 00:15:05,295
And now would be

dreadful thoughts

be true.

00:15:22,182 --> 00:15:24,271

What happened last night?

295
00:15:31,713 --> 00:15:33,541
She deserved a beautiful death,

296
00:15:33,584 --> 00:15:35,935
and I made sure she got one.

297
00:15:37,197 --> 00:15:38,807
You made sure?

00:15:38,850 --> 00:15:40,374
It's why I was there.

I use in my practice.

You put her to sleep?

305
00:15:56,390 --> 00:15:58,827

of so much suffering.

00:18:32,241 --> 00:18:33,721
You know I'd never hurt you.

366
00:18:33,764 --> 00:18:35,201
I'm not afraid you'll hurt me.

367
00:18:35,244 --> 00:18:36,680
I'm afraid you'll helpme.

368
00:18:36,724 --> 00:18:39,118
-No. No. [screams]
-Alma...

369
00:18:39,161 --> 00:18:40,945
[panting]

370
00:18:42,208 --> 00:18:43,252
Back up.

371
00:18:43,296 --> 00:18:44,471
Get back.

372
00:18:48,388 --> 00:18:51,173
-Alma?
-[Alma groans]

373
00:18:51,217 --> 00:18:52,696
[car door closes, engine starts]

374
00:19:04,752 --> 00:19:07,276
Scooter, I've been thinking.

375
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,018
How'd you like
to come live with me?

376
00:19:10,061 --> 00:19:12,368
You mean shack up?

377
00:19:12,412 --> 00:19:13,935
Well, what about Carlo?

378
00:19:13,978 --> 00:19:17,199
His bitch of a daughter is
taking him back home to Texas.

379
00:19:17,243 --> 00:19:18,461
Oh, swell.

380
00:19:18,505 --> 00:19:19,984
When should I start packing?

381
00:19:20,028 --> 00:19:21,856
Today, if you'd like.

382
00:19:21,899 --> 00:19:24,641
But since I'm still married,

383
00:19:24,685 --> 00:19:26,774
we'll need a cover story
to explain you being there.

384
00:19:26,817 --> 00:19:27,992
Oh, right.

385
00:19:28,036 --> 00:19:30,908
So we don't scandalize
the Garden Club.

386
00:19:30,952 --> 00:19:32,301
[chuckles] Exactly.

387
00:19:32,345 --> 00:19:34,738
So we'll tell people
you're my chauffeur.

388
00:19:36,653 --> 00:19:38,177
-A chauffeur?
-Mm-hmm.

389
00:19:38,220 --> 00:19:39,352
But I'm an actor.

390
00:19:39,395 --> 00:19:40,788
Mm.

391
00:19:40,831 --> 00:19:43,312
Okay, an aspiring actor.

392
00:19:43,356 --> 00:19:45,749
And I'm an aspiring widow.

393
00:19:45,793 --> 00:19:47,795
So while we wait
for our dreams to come true,

394
00:19:47,838 --> 00:19:49,318
you'll stay in my guesthouse.

395
00:19:49,362 --> 00:19:52,234
Trust me, it beats this pigsty.

396
00:19:52,278 --> 00:19:54,584
That woman who cleans for you
isn't just old, she's blind.

397
00:19:57,021 --> 00:19:59,285
I never said
I have a cleaning lady.

398
00:19:59,328 --> 00:20:00,938
[chuckles]

399
00:20:00,982 --> 00:20:02,592
Oh, you must have.

400
00:20:02,636 --> 00:20:04,551
How else could I know about her?

401
00:20:08,816 --> 00:20:10,513
You know what?

402
00:20:12,341 --> 00:20:14,169
Let's leave things how they are.

403
00:20:14,213 --> 00:20:16,563
I want you as my lover,
not my boss.

404
00:20:16,606 --> 00:20:19,043
Oh, for God's sake,
it's temporary.

405
00:20:19,087 --> 00:20:21,742
Carlo is inches from death.

406
00:20:21,785 --> 00:20:23,047
And once I have his money,

407
00:20:23,091 --> 00:20:25,224
we can spend it on anything
you'd like.

408
00:20:25,267 --> 00:20:27,443
Travel, parties.

409
00:20:27,487 --> 00:20:29,750
Give up my freedom
for a few shindigs?

410
00:20:29,793 --> 00:20:30,838
Pasadena.

411
00:20:30,881 --> 00:20:34,624
I will have millions of dollars.

412
00:20:34,668 --> 00:20:36,496
And...

413
00:20:36,539 --> 00:20:39,629
there might even be enough
to finance a film...

414
00:20:39,673 --> 00:20:42,806
starring my former chauffeur.

415
00:20:43,938 --> 00:20:45,244
Are you serious?

416
00:20:45,287 --> 00:20:48,856
Of course I am,
my beautiful boy.

417
00:20:48,899 --> 00:20:50,684
Now, what do you say?

418
00:20:50,727 --> 00:20:52,120
I say...

419
00:20:52,163 --> 00:20:55,297
car's all gassed up,
Mrs. Castillo.

420
00:20:55,341 --> 00:20:56,559
Where to?

421
00:20:56,603 --> 00:20:58,561
Paradise.

422
00:20:58,605 --> 00:20:59,997
And step on it.

423
00:21:09,746 --> 00:21:11,792
Alma Fillcot?

424
00:21:11,835 --> 00:21:13,097
Rita.

425
00:21:13,141 --> 00:21:14,751
What are you doing here?

426
00:21:14,795 --> 00:21:17,580
Oh, I was just around the block,
interviewing a new chauffeur.

427
00:21:17,624 --> 00:21:20,453
Uh, so,
Grace phoned me last night.

428
00:21:20,496 --> 00:21:22,237
She went on and on about you.

429
00:21:23,586 --> 00:21:24,761
She did?

430
00:21:24,805 --> 00:21:27,547
Yes.
She said you were very sweet.

431
00:21:27,590 --> 00:21:29,375
You returned some old trinket?

432
00:21:29,418 --> 00:21:32,116
Yes, her-her cameo.

433
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,206
Anyway, she's very grateful,

434
00:21:35,250 --> 00:21:38,122
and she wants to nominate you
for the open spot in the club.

435
00:21:38,166 --> 00:21:40,473
Oh, my God.

436
00:21:41,735 --> 00:21:43,693
I just didn't think
I'd ever be nominated.

437
00:21:43,737 --> 00:21:45,434
[laughing]

438
00:21:45,478 --> 00:21:46,653
No one did.

439
00:21:46,696 --> 00:21:49,177
But you now have Grace
on your side.

440
00:21:49,220 --> 00:21:51,353
So, good for you.

441
00:21:51,397 --> 00:21:53,921
Do you really think
I have a chance?

442
00:21:53,964 --> 00:21:55,705
Maybe.

443
00:21:55,749 --> 00:21:57,968
Ada Coy was my first choice,
but...

444
00:21:59,013 --> 00:22:00,449
Well, her husband
was just caught

445
00:22:00,493 --> 00:22:02,277
embezzling money from his bank.

446
00:22:02,321 --> 00:22:04,584
Obviously,
we can't admit someone

447
00:22:04,627 --> 00:22:05,802
whose husband might be arrested.

448
00:22:07,978 --> 00:22:09,632
Oh.

449
00:22:11,112 --> 00:22:12,287
Wh-Why not?

450
00:22:13,767 --> 00:22:16,509
The Elysian Park Garden Club
has a sterling reputation.

451
00:22:16,552 --> 00:22:19,642
We can't be associated
with a public scandal.

452
00:22:19,686 --> 00:22:21,035
Right.

453
00:22:21,078 --> 00:22:22,645
That would be awkward.

454
00:22:24,430 --> 00:22:27,824
What if she didn't know
what her husband had done?

455
00:22:27,868 --> 00:22:29,652
Oh. She's his wife.

456
00:22:29,696 --> 00:22:30,871
She should have known.

457
00:22:32,916 --> 00:22:33,874
Poor Ada.

458
00:22:33,917 --> 00:22:35,049
I know.

459
00:22:35,092 --> 00:22:37,094
She'll probably
have to leave town.

460
00:22:37,138 --> 00:22:40,533
No one decent will want to have
a thing to do with her now.

461
00:22:40,576 --> 00:22:42,709
It's not fair.

462
00:22:42,752 --> 00:22:45,712
But the good news is,
now you have a shot.

463
00:22:45,755 --> 00:22:47,104
Someone will call you soon

464
00:22:47,148 --> 00:22:48,802
to set up a date
for your interview.

465
00:22:48,845 --> 00:22:50,281
Oh, and, um,

466
00:22:50,325 --> 00:22:52,588
when that day comes, Alma,

467
00:22:52,632 --> 00:22:54,721
speaking as a friend...

468
00:22:54,764 --> 00:22:56,331
Yes?

469
00:22:56,375 --> 00:22:58,333
Don't wear that.

470
00:23:17,613 --> 00:23:19,876
Are you crazy? You can't
move this kid in here.

471
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:21,269
Oh. Lots of women have drivers.

472
00:23:21,312 --> 00:23:22,836
Middle-aged men with a gut.

473
00:23:22,879 --> 00:23:25,404
If you move a gorgeous young kid
in here, people will talk.

474
00:23:26,796 --> 00:23:29,190
Well, I'll just... I'll tell
everyone he's an actor

475
00:23:29,233 --> 00:23:31,279
and I'm only moving him in
so I can mentor him.

476
00:23:31,322 --> 00:23:32,541
People won't talk then.

477
00:23:32,585 --> 00:23:33,542
No, they'll laugh.

478
00:23:33,586 --> 00:23:34,543
[doorbell rings]

479
00:23:34,587 --> 00:23:35,805
That must be Scooter now.

480
00:23:35,849 --> 00:23:37,067
His name is Scooter?

481
00:23:37,111 --> 00:23:38,460
[sighs]
I know.

482
00:23:38,504 --> 00:23:40,462
I begged him to change it.

483
00:23:45,467 --> 00:23:46,773
Catherine?

484
00:23:46,816 --> 00:23:48,209
What are you doing here?

485
00:23:48,252 --> 00:23:49,993
Oh, I brought you a present.

486
00:23:50,037 --> 00:23:51,604
Your husband.

487
00:23:51,647 --> 00:23:53,693
Come on, Papa.

488
00:23:53,736 --> 00:23:55,477
Home sweet home.

489
00:23:55,521 --> 00:23:58,741
But you said he was going
to live with you in Texas.

490
00:23:58,785 --> 00:24:00,613
And when I saw how happy
that made you,

491
00:24:00,656 --> 00:24:02,310
I knew I'd made a mistake.

492
00:24:02,353 --> 00:24:04,617
Then it occurred to me
that I can live here,

493
00:24:04,660 --> 00:24:05,748
look after Papa,

494
00:24:05,792 --> 00:24:07,750
and keep an eye on you, as well.

495
00:24:07,794 --> 00:24:10,144
Isabel, you can use the elevator

496
00:24:10,187 --> 00:24:12,189
to take my father
up to his room.

497
00:24:12,233 --> 00:24:13,930
Isabel, no.

498
00:24:13,974 --> 00:24:15,192
Carlo is not staying.

499
00:24:15,236 --> 00:24:16,803
Father pays for your salary.

500
00:24:16,846 --> 00:24:18,544
Not her.

501
00:24:18,587 --> 00:24:20,023
Yes, Miss Castillo.

502
00:24:20,067 --> 00:24:22,504
-Sorry, Mrs. Castillo.
-[scoffs]

503
00:24:23,549 --> 00:24:25,812
You. You... [grunts]

504
00:24:25,855 --> 00:24:29,642
This is my home, Catherine,
and I want you to leave.

505
00:24:29,685 --> 00:24:33,515
My father's name is on the deed,
so what you want is irrelevant.

506
00:24:33,559 --> 00:24:35,343
Wheel Papa to the window,
Isabel.

507
00:24:35,386 --> 00:24:37,084
He likes looking at the flowers.

508
00:24:37,127 --> 00:24:39,216
[stammers] This is insane.

509
00:24:39,260 --> 00:24:41,697
He needs better care
than we can give him here.

510
00:24:41,741 --> 00:24:45,179
You seem awfully eager
to get him out of your hair.

511
00:24:45,222 --> 00:24:48,312
Do you have some gigolo
waiting in the wings?

512
00:24:48,356 --> 00:24:51,490
[scoffs] How dare you
question my fidelity?

513
00:24:51,533 --> 00:24:52,621
Yoo-hoo!

514
00:24:52,665 --> 00:24:54,231
Anyone home?

515
00:24:54,275 --> 00:24:56,190
Excuse me.

516
00:24:58,235 --> 00:24:59,454
What the hell's going on?

517
00:24:59,498 --> 00:25:00,542
You have to leave now.

518
00:25:00,586 --> 00:25:02,152
CATHERINE:
Rita, where are you?

519
00:25:02,196 --> 00:25:03,327
Oh, crap.

520
00:25:03,371 --> 00:25:05,025
-Give me this.
-Hey. What are you doing?

521
00:25:05,068 --> 00:25:06,896
-Shh. Give me this.
-What?

522
00:25:08,594 --> 00:25:09,986
Who is this?

523
00:25:10,030 --> 00:25:12,119
Oh, for Christ's sake,
Catherine.

524
00:25:12,162 --> 00:25:14,382
It's just my dry cleaner.

525
00:25:14,425 --> 00:25:16,602
I-I hope you haven't lost
any more buttons.

526
00:25:16,645 --> 00:25:18,952
Isabel.

527
00:25:18,995 --> 00:25:20,170
Put these dresses away.

528
00:25:21,998 --> 00:25:23,696
Well, what are you waiting for?

529
00:25:23,739 --> 00:25:25,088
Oh, did I forget a tip?

530
00:25:25,132 --> 00:25:26,612
There.

531
00:25:26,655 --> 00:25:28,309
Off you go.

532
00:25:28,352 --> 00:25:30,572
Aw. Thanks, Mrs. Castillo.

533
00:25:30,616 --> 00:25:32,618
See you later.

534
00:25:35,534 --> 00:25:36,883
Hmm.

535
00:25:39,581 --> 00:25:41,888
I can't believe
you just did that.

536
00:25:43,063 --> 00:25:44,325
Did what?

537
00:25:44,368 --> 00:25:46,327
You tipped him a whole dollar.

538
00:25:46,370 --> 00:25:48,590
If that's how you're spending
Papa's money,

539
00:25:48,634 --> 00:25:50,287
it's a good thing I'm here.

540
00:25:50,331 --> 00:25:52,246
[scoffs] What I spend
is none of your business.

541
00:25:52,289 --> 00:25:55,815
Oh, but everything you do
is my business now.

542
00:25:55,858 --> 00:25:58,426
Morally and legally.

543
00:25:58,469 --> 00:26:01,995
And if I find legal grounds to
sue for divorce on his behalf,

544

00:45:41,564 --> 00:45:43,131
Bertram...

905
00:45:43,175 --> 00:45:45,220
I think she's dead.

906
00:45:47,788 --> 00:45:49,703
Oh, Mrs. Yost.

907
00:45:49,747 --> 00:45:52,184
Well, I guess we'll have to call
the police now.

908
00:45:52,227 --> 00:45:54,577
Wait. Wait! Wait!
Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait.

909
00:45:54,621 --> 00:45:55,927
Wait? What for?

910
00:45:57,798 --> 00:46:00,453
If the police come,
then what will we tell them?

911
00:46:00,496 --> 00:46:03,021
Well, the truth. She was
eavesdropping and she fell.

912
00:46:03,064 --> 00:46:05,414
Why was she eavesdropping?

913
00:46:05,458 --> 00:46:09,201
They're going to want to know
what was going on in our house

914
00:46:09,244 --> 00:46:12,465
lurid enough
to make a 70-year-old woman

915
00:46:12,508 --> 00:46:13,727
climb a trellis.

916
00:46:15,511 --> 00:46:17,383
There's going to be
so many questions.

917
00:46:17,426 --> 00:46:18,993
Rumors.

918
00:46:19,037 --> 00:46:20,690
All over town.

919
00:46:21,735 --> 00:46:23,476
And after all
of your crimes, Bertram.

920
00:46:23,519 --> 00:46:26,261
Crimes which even I
was able to uncover.

921
00:46:26,305 --> 00:46:29,656
Do we dare invite
that kind of scrutiny?

922
00:46:29,699 --> 00:46:31,179
What choice do we have?

923
00:46:35,531 --> 00:46:38,621
Alma. Alma.
