Original subtitles

Previously on Diggstown.

Aunt Rolanda, this is the friend I told you about.

Avery's going to take care of this.

We've got you.

The crown is pushing for 10 years on this.

10 years?

If you take the plea deal, this ends today.

10 years.

If she pleads guilty,

that's all anyone at home's gonna remember.

- Marcie. - Rolanda!

The system let her down and,

I should have been there for you.

Not the system.

Rolanda!

Us.

The RCMP raided M&M two days ago.

All of the files involving Ezra Elvins

have been placed under seal.

What did you tell Avery?

That you requested information on the shareholders

and that I gave it to you.

Let's discuss the case that's gonna make your career.

Yep, the whole thing.

There you go.

Yeah.

Do you have any squid left?

I'm sorry, we sold the last one.

That'll be 28.99.

You can tap when you're ready.

I have to take this, it's my Aunt Maria.

- Lonnie. - Where have you been?

- It's a zoo in here. - Forget that.

You know the lockbox I keep under the binder

beneath the fish counter?

I see it.

Okay, you know the mug you gave me?

There's a key to the lockbox in there.

I need you to open it.

Excuse me.

Just...

- Come on, Tanya. - Doing it.

Come on! Tanya.

Is this what you're looking for?

Do you have it? Come on!

- Is that Lonnie? - Tanya!

Tell him he's cooked, so are you.

- Tanya! - Wha...?

Tanya! - What's going on?

They're here. The police are here to see ya.

- What? No. - Tanya!

- What? No. - Nothing to see here, folks.

- Kathy? - We'll get this taken care of,

and we'll be right with you.

Oh my gosh, are they arresting her?

She's always so nice.

Let's go.

My husband and I own five markets around the city.

It's a good business.

And when did you notice inventory was missing?

Well Ron, that's my husband,

he was off having back surgery,

and I was busy with the Spring Garden and Herring Cove stores,

so it wasn't until he was back on his feet

that I got a chance to look at the books.

And what did you notice?

That Lonnie Thibodeau and his little side piece there

were stealing from me.

How so?

Usually with seafood you can expect 30% waste,

but 60?

Lonnie and Tanya were robbing us blind.

Thank you, Mrs. Biers.

One second counsel.

Okay, forgive me,

why do I have pleadings in two different names?

Who is Tomeslav Axel Ivanovich?

Your Honour, Tomeslav

is Ms. Ivanova's birth name.

And what's the name on the original charging document?

The information was made out

in Ms Ivanova's birth name, Your Honour.

My client's in the midst

of legally changing her name.

But right now I am sitting in a proceeding

with a defendant who "on paper" doesn't exist.

So for the sake of avoiding

administrative snafus down the line,

let's use your name as stated in the information.

Tomeslav, what is that, Russian?

Let's adjourn.

We'll reconvene Wednesday morning.

All rise.

Tay, they're trying to turn us against each other.

Stay strong, baby.

They don't know us.

Hey, Mr Thibodeau, don't talk to my client.

It's just you and me, baby.

Remember, I had your back

- when no one else did. - Hey!

We stick together, we're gonna make it through this,

- all right? - That's enough.

Let's go.

We're close to making the insider trading charges

- on the Anderson... - Just forget Anderson,

Poesy, I want Ezra Elvin's

for Clarke Media.

That son of a bitch stole my friend

Julia Clarke's company right out from under her.

He convinced 11 right thinking individuals

to vote her out of her own company.

Well considering what she went through last year,

Elvins does not get to walk away from that.

Well I didn't realize this was personal.

Personal?

Like your relationship with Ms. Diggs.

Is that why she hasn't been subpoenaed yet?

With all do respect, Deputy Minster Ross,

allow me to build my case.

You are dragging your feet.

Bring her in, question her.

I've already talked to her, she insists

- she has... - Have her insist under oath.

I don't think that's the best course...

I think you're not thinking

with the right part of your anatomy.

I'm sorry?

I'm well aware of your history with Ms. Diggs.

If you're uncomfortable, just say so.

That Carol, what's her last name, Chan?

She's always struck me as a climber.

Certainly she would appreciate the opportunities

that Minister Schachter and I are offering you.

There's no need for that Mrs. Ross.

I'll file the necessary paperwork

for the subpoena this afternoon.

Ambition rewards.

I know you made Dad send me an invite

to the dumb banquet.

Oh come on, it'll be fun.

No it won't, I hate those things!

I hate getting dressed up.

So do you.

What's it for anyway?

Well it says right here,

Businessman of the Year Award.

Oh my God, he'll love that.

There's a Business Woman Award too, right?

I don't think so.

I'm kidding.

Obviously there isn't.

I'm almost finished my article.

- Oh, the one on? - Felix Guattari.

I'm writing about the impact of 21st century globalism

on what he calls the "three ecologies."

Is that the environment?

No.

Anyway, the article's taking forever,

because I have to keep backing everything up

every five minutes.

Oh no, are you having computer problems?

No, I told you.

Okay...

That's the guy in my building

who's spying on me, okay?

He signed for these books that I ordered,

and then he personally delivered them to my apartment.

Ah, that sounds like maybe he was just being helpful.

No, he's trying to steal my research.

I recognize him from the philosophy department.

He's always lurking, you know,

saying "Hi", asking me questions.

You don't believe me.

I recognize that look.

I'm taking my meds, okay?

I believe you,

and if this guy's a problem we'll deal with it,

but if this is stressing you out so much,

maybe we should have Dr. Burgess

prescribe you something, okay?

Fine, yeah.

Whatever you say, boss.

Am I allowed to have more coffee?

Of course.

? NuhNuh, nuh, nuhnuh ?

? I bet you wasn't ready for it ?

? I bet you wasn't ready for it ?

? I bet you wasn't ready for it ?

What?

Let's go!

Come on!

He's crazy!

Who is that guy?

Come on, you don't know "E"?

Nah, I don't know "E".

If he's so famous, what's he doing at The Seahorse?

- He's from here. - Ah.

I can't believe you never heard of...

Is that?

Hey, Alexa!

Oh hey!

- Oh, sit down. - Do you know her?

Yeah, it's Marcie's sister, Alexa.

Hey!

- Hey. - Reg, hey.

I need a drink, I've been dealing

all day with people who don't know

their asses from their elbows.

Jesus!

Hey, Keith's and a shot of Captain's, please.

Marcie's sister?

I didn't know she had more than one.

Two actually.

Alexa's the youngest.

Marcie's sister, where?

Over there by "E".

Who the hell's "E"?

Hi Sam.

Pam, the police are at my door.

Whoa! Slow down.

They're saying they have to take me into custody.

Where are they taking you?

The station.

Oh my God, Sam, are you okay?

Why is she wearing a spit mask?

Take that off of her.

- When she calms down. - I am calm!

Are you?

I'll fix this.

Sir, that's Samantha MacLean.

I am Pamela MacLean.

I'm her sister and I'll also

be acting as her lawyer.

She has mental health issues.

- And we called the mobile mental health unit. - I didn't do anything wrong.

Meantime, your sister here is being detained

on suspicion of assault with a weapon.

They were nail scissors!

I barely scratched him!

Can I talk to her?

Hey, hey, it's okay,

- you're all right. - What's going on?

- Pam, who are those people? - Hey.

They're gonna take you to the hospital.

Pam, don't let them take me.

They'll take you to the hospital,

I'll call Dr Burgess, and we're gonna

come get you first thing in the morning, okay?

It's gonna be okay,

- I promise. - No, nooooo!

- Noooo! - Step this way.

Charmaine.

Thanks for coming in.

Is this Lavinia's girl?

My god she's grown.

Aren't you a little heart breaker?

Figured I'd be hearing from you.

Ernest, you heard he's back calling himself "E".

Geez, I can't believe somebody scooped me.

This is great news though,

we can reopen Lavinia's case,

get her home.

Reggie, Lavinia passed.

In prison.

She just ran afoul of the wrong person.

But she was gonna get out in six months,

I-I made a note on my phone.

I feel ya.

And now,

Ernest is trying to get sole custody of my baby girl.

I ran into that loud mouth

mother of his about a month ago,

and I knew as soon as she saw Rochelle

she was going to try to stir up some garbage.

The only thing that boy ever had

going for himself was his looks.

No.

He leaves the mother of his child

to take his drug possession rap,

and now that she's dead, he wants sole custody!

No.

No way.

Hello?

I heard a rumour you were in town.

- How you doing? - I'm good.

Wow, this place is nice.

A lot nicer than the place we grew up in.

Well you should see the house now.

A lot nicer without us kids wrecking the place.

You talk to Mom?

Daddy knows I'm here.

You know you're wrong, right?

I don't wanna hear it.

Yeah, Mom and I don't have anything to say to each other.

You've nothing to say to each other.

You ran off with some old guy

and then when Mommy tried to bring you home,

you basically gave her the middle finger.

Do you want me to leave?

- I'm just saying. - Marce.

Can we not talk about them?

I came here to see you.

- I'm late for a meeting. - Ah.

Mind if I hang out here for a bit?

Mi casa, su casa.

Okay.

Jake.

Good morning, Marcie.

You're going to be subpoenaed,

in the Crown's case against Ezra Elvins.

- I don't know... - What do they have on you?

You're being really presumptuous.

We know you've been calling to ask about

the status of the prosecutor's case against Tessa.

Yeah, where is Tessa?

She's probably being interviewed

by Avery Mueller and the cops as we speak.

Tessa can't protect you here.

You're their errand boy now, Jake?

Is that what you've come to tell me?

Forget about Tessa.

No one at M&M is coming to your rescue.

You're on your own.

Get a good lawyer, Marcie.

You and I both know,

Tanya Ivanova is innocent.

We have a good case.

$100,000 was stolen

over the 18 months she worked in the store.

Police found $5000 worth of luxury items in her home.

Which all came from Lonnie.

Listen, if your client is willing

to testify against Thibodeau

I can offer six months,

18 months probation.

Thanks.

I'll take it to her.

- If you come near him again. - No!

No! RV!

- Hey, what are you doing? - Listen.

He wants a real woman, he doesn't want

- something like you. - Get out of here, right now.

- Tanya - SHERRY: Bitch deserved it.

- Let's go. - Oh Tanya.

Thank you, Aunt Maria.

We need to call the cops.

No police.

Then we need to tell the prosecutor about this.

Tell them what?

That the wife of the man

I've been sleeping with attacked me.

They probably all believe I'm getting what I deserve.

What about what he's done to your life?

You lost your job, your apartment.

He's painting you out to be some thieving side chick

while he protects his good name.

Tanya, the Crown's offering you six months,

18 months probation.

You don't get it, do you?

He can have all that,

my dignity, my respect,

everything I've worked my whole life for,

and I'd still love him.

I... love him.

And I won't betray him.

Hi Dr Burgess, it's Pam, Sam's sister.

Yes, the other twin.

Listen, did you get a call last night

about Sam being admitted to the NS?

Sorry, I...

I don't understand what you're saying.

Who signed her out?

Hey Carol, I spoke to my client...

No prize for second place.

What are you talking about?

Josh Renton, Mr. Thibodeau's lawyer, called me.

He's cooperating.

Cooperating?

He's the perpetrator.

That's not his story.

See you in court.

Where is she?

Your sister agreed to go to Maplehurst.

You put her in an institution?

I saved her from going to jail,

is what I did.

It's part of a deal to get the charges dropped.

Oh of course it was.

How convenient.

You've wanted to have her committed for years.

Sam has a condition.

Oh my god.

You can't even say the word.

It's not a condition, Dad.

It's schizophrenia and hers

is manageable with the right treatment

and family support.

Look, I don't have time for this tantrum right now.

See ya tonight at the party.

I'm not going to that.

Family support works both ways, Pam.

I expect to see you there.

At first she made it sound like it would be nothing,

you know, a couple of hundred here,

another hundred there.

I just never expected everything

to get so out of hand.

So Miss Ivanova was the one who...

For clarity, please refer to the defendant

as Tomeslav or the defendant.

At what point did the defendant escalate her operation?

It was almost immediate.

The stealing was like a high for her.

She got off on it.

Why are you doing this?

- I thought you loved me. - Settle.

How could he love a thing like you?

Who are you?

I'm his wife.

Mrs. Thibodeau,

apologize to Tomeslav

or leave my courtroom.

I won't.

Escort Ms. Thibodeau

- I'm out. - out of the courtroom.

I'm out!

Ms. Chan, continue with the witness.

I have no more at this time, Your Honour.

Ms. Diggs.

Can you read the dates,

on these ledger entries please?

April 20th, April 21st, April 22nd.

And can you read this line

from the store's official timesheet?

April 20th to May 5th, Tanya Ivanova, sick leave.

How is it possible my client made these entries

when she was home sick on these dates?

Well she made those entries when she got back.

Under your direction.

Objection, speculation.

Sustained.

Okay, we'll break for lunch, back at two p.m.

All rise.

This is a joke.

Asking for sole custody,

of a child he's never even met.

No judge will take that seriously.

My client's a national success story.

He just signed a multi-million dollar contract

and purchased a home in Portland Estates.

He's ready to commit to raising his daughter.

He's a drug dealer who left his pregnant girlfriend

to do his time.

I'm sorry to bring this up, Ms. Noils but,

you're living in social housing

on long-term disability.

- I don't think the court... - You...

You're not worth a hair on her ass.

Less than that.

And you wanna go to family court,

and compare this one, who didn't even show up,

to Lavinia's funeral,

with a loving, dedicated grandmother

who's a model citizen?

Good luck with that.

You know the rights of the father

outweigh those of the grandparents.

So, I don't need luck.

So, Avery's trying to use you

to build a case against Ezra Elvins?

I'm guessing yes.

Do you have anything to be worried about?

Ezra Elvins gave me 100 shares in Clarke Media

the day that he took over the business.

Were those shares part of some quid pro quo?

What if...

What if I gave him confidential...

Stop!

Stop talking.

For the time being, I'll be your lawyer.

- Colleen... - It's okay.

Besides being my favourite employee,

you're also my girlfriend's sister.

What the hell.

Thank you.

How long have you been married,

to your wife, Sherry Thibodeau?

15 years.

And Ms. Ivanova's your first affair?

I'm not the kind of guy to step out.

But...

I never met anyone... like that.

I didn't understand what I was getting into.

I really regret everything.

Regret the whole, criminal enterprise?

- Objection. - Sustained.

Let's be clear.

You're testifying today because you cut a deal, yeah?

No ma'am, I'm here just to tell the truth.

The truth about your exploitation

of your employee, Ms. Ivanova,

and your attempt,

to frame her for your crimes.

Exploited?

Tanya was taking advantage of me.

Isn't it true that your salary is $68,500 a year?

Yeah.

And you drive a Lincoln Navigator?

Yeah.

And last year,

you took your family on holidays to Mont Tremblant,

Cancun and Disney World.

Yeah.

And yet, Ms. Ivanova,

the alleged mastermind in this scheme,

who worked 38 hours a week at $12 an hour,

and lived in a bachelor apartment in Fairview

went where?

- Nowhere. - Ms. Diggs.

If Tanya is running the operation,

show me the money.

Ms Diggs,

maybe all that hair

is interfering with your hearing.

- Excuse me, Your Honour. - When I'm talking,

you're not, and I was talking.

Less testifying, please.

Mr. Thibodeau,

did you know that 14 months ago

Ms. Ivanova had surgery for breast augmentation

at a cost of $12,400?

Yeah, she got a pair of fun bags.

I'd like to direct the court's attention

to Defence Exhibit A21.

Mr. Thibodeau,

please read the text message exchange

between you and Ms. Ivanova.

"Tanya, I know we said round,"

"but now I'm thinking teardrop."

"Lonnie, up to you, I like both."

Fair to say you knew about the "fun bags",

'cause you hand picked them?

Aren't you gonna object?

Answer the question, Mr. Thibodeau.

Yeah, I put in my two cents.

'Cause you wanted your lady to look her best, right?

It wasn't like that.

No?

Are in love with Ms. Ivanova?

No, I never loved her.

You were just using her affections for you,

so that you can manipulate her

into taking the fall for you.

No, it wasn't like that.

No?

Sounds like it.

No further questions.

- You gotta stop. - What?

You're not notified when your clients die.

Candace, you don't understand,

Lavinia Shepherd was one of the good ones.

Innocent and that guy took advantage of her,

and I couldn't help her.

Dammit.

Four years, it'd go by like that.

I told her do the time, it'll be okay and...

And you were wrong.

And now

there's a good chance that

Charmaine is going to lose her granddaughter

because the courts favour the biological parent

over the grandparent.

Only Regan Thompson is going to stop

focusing on what he didn't do,

and start doing what he does best,

kicking ass.

Hey, go easy on the Regan stuff, huh?

I met Lonnie many times.

And did you ever suspect

that he was engaged in criminal activity?

Never, he was such a gentleman.

And he was also very generous with Tanya?

He spent a fortune on her.

So much she felt bad about it.

Thank you.

You said the defendant felt bad,

about Mr Thibodeau's generosity.

What do you base that on?

Well it was too much.

Tanya wondered how

he could afford to give her so much.

He seemed like such a good man.

Wondered because she knew the money

came from illegal sources?

Oh no, she didn't know that for sure.

Objection, hearsay.

It's allowed.

So the defendant suspected Mr. Thibodeau

was buying her gifts

with the proceeds of stolen goods,

and she still accepted those gifts.

Please answer, Ms. Ivanova.

Yes.

What's wrong? Was that bad?

Your aunt just testified you're an accessory to theft.

Colleen's gummies, I'm tellin'.

Oh come on Reg, I've had a rough day.

Still in trial with that seafood stealing case?

Who the hell steals seafood?

Oh, you'd be surprised how lucrative it is.

If only I could just track the money.

Ah, real estate's always a good idea.

Oh trust me, I looked.

Land registration says his house is in his wife's name,

but the mortgage seemed to be held

in a numbered holding company.

Wait a second.

Thank you for coming Mrs. Thibodeau,

we just want to clarify a few issues

around your husband's case.

What's she doing here?

Your husband's already

thrown one woman under the bus,

I'm just curious to see if...

You'll be next.

You know something,

I shouldn't have come here without my lawyers.

I simply have a few questions

about Lonnie's financial situation.

Now this is your corporation, correct?

And as primary shareholder,

you deposit money into the account.

Yeah, so?

So if the amounts you deposited match the ledger,

you'll be charged too.

Charged with what?

Theft, money laundering, conspiracy,

- obstruction of justice. - Marcie.

Mrs. Thibodeau, none of that needs to happen

provided you're willing to testify against your husband,

and give up any monies currently held by the corporation

that are the proceeds of crime.

My money? No, no I don't agree to that.

Are you sure that's your best move, Mrs. Thibodeau?

I know what you're doing,

you're using me to get that

home-wrecking little bitch out of jail.

- And if you think... - Mrs. Thibodeau,

you don't seem to understand,

we have enough to charge you and make it stick.

Now you're here being offered a walk

because I'm feeling generous.

Once you walk out that door, my generosity expires.

What are you doing?

Do not touch me!

Sherry Thibodeau, I am placing you under arrest.

Are you serious?

Are you serious?

So, what do we do about Tanya

in light of this new evidence?

Six months, one year probation,

$50,000 restitution order.

No restitution order,

I just gave you Lonnie's actual crime partner.

I mean,

they were laundering their money,

through a numbered company in the wife's name, come on.

If Tanya pleads guilty as an accessory,

then we have a deal.

- No jail. - Fine.

I think we're done here.

Mmhmm.

So, I hear I'm about to be subpoenaed.

Not sure who you would have heard that from.

Well, despite present company,

I actually still have friends.

Marcie, I gave you a chance to come clean.

I told you my communication with Ezra Elvins

was confidential and/or privileged.

Only if it's related to work conducted at the firm.

You met with Leah

and she accessed Clarke Media's information on M&M's database,

the same day that Ezra Elvin started meeting

with company shareholders.

Look Marcie, the charge is theft

with a purpose of industrial espionage.

You come clean, we can make a deal.

You testify against Elvins in return for immunity.

And disbarment.

I'll never work as a lawyer again.

Is that what you want?

I'm sure you'll do whatever you need to do, Avery.

You always do.

I'm gonna give the underserved kids of this community

a start that I never had.

We're gonna rebuild parks just like this one

in communities all around the city.

Now remember what I said, you've got this.

Because every kid deserves a great start.

Thanks.

- What's she doing? - Oh you are slick.

Hey, hey!

You're supposed to have this handled.

My name is Charmaine Noils,

and this here...

Is my daughter, Lavinia, that baby's mother.

But my girl was unlucky enough,

to fall in with this guy,

- a drug dealer! - Let me handle this.

Who was willing to let the mother of his child

go to jail for getting caught with his drugs.

And now him and his hot shot lawyers

are trying to steal my grandbaby from me,

and I plan on fighting this

with every last breath in my body.

Publicity stunt gone wrong for...

Oh boy.

Hey, hey, let me take care of this.

So, a lawyer that I work with,

he's trying to stop him from getting custody.

E as a parent? Okay, that's a joke.

He should definitely not be raising a kid.

Well...

Man it would help,

if someone just actually said that on record.

Oh I see what you're doing here,

playing the big sister,

do-the-right-thing guilt trip.

No, no, no, no, no, no judgement,

no judgement, it's totally up to you.

Um...

I'm gonna send you his number,

his name's Reggie Thompson, and you know...

In case you change your mind.

I hate you.

I love you.

Marcie Diggs?

Ah, yes?

I'm Officer Lonsdale, Canada Border Services Agency.

Do you know where your client Tomeslav Ivanovich is?

We have a removal order.

I'm sorry but I-I don't understand.

Her case has nothing to do with Border Services.

Ivanovich is not a Canadian citizen,

and as such his or her criminal conviction

makes her subject to immediate deportation.

We need to jump on this fast.

Tanya's removal order says

that she needs to be out of the country

within two weeks.

We need to get her a hearing with Immigration Refugee...

Hold up, this isn't your case anymore.

The file was approved for theft,

- not an immigration issue. - So put me on it!

I don't think now's the time for you or me

to be playing fast and loose with the rules.

Fine, if not me then put someone else on it.

I'm sorry.

I'm trying to do the right thing here.

It is crucial to make the argument

now that Tanya's being deported back to Russia

that this is a human rights issue.

Hate crimes against members of

the LGBTQ+ community have soared,

and we're going to allow the government

to send her back to a country

she doesn't even remember?

One where she faces a possible death sentence?

Come on, Colleen.

All right.

Get Tanya to come in, I'll see what I can do.

Thank you.

My boss is willing

to help me with this deportation order,

you just have to be willing to come in.

No, I could end up in a holding centre.

We're treated like garbage in those places.

I'd be better off on the run.

Tanya, if you run,

you will not be able to work.

You will be constantly looking over your shoulder

wondering when Border Services

is going to come knocking at your door.

I should have never gotten involved with Lonnie.

Tanya.

Promise me that you will at least...

Come in and hear me out.

I have a witness who's willing to testify

that your client is abusive, volatile,

addicted to cocaine,

and in no way fit to have custody of a child.

Yo, that's garbage, who's saying this?

Doesn't prove anything.

So if I asked the cops to go to your hotel room,

they won't find a, oh a bag of coke in your mini-bar?

You know, the thing that struck me about Lavinia the most

when she first came to me, was her loyalty to you.

Even when she was in jail,

she always thought you were going to show up.

It wasn't until after they took away her baby

that she accepted the truth,

that you're a liar and a coward!

It takes a hell of a lot more than sperm to be a father.

Hold on, hold on, wait, wait, wait.

E, let me handle this.

Ms. Cavari, what's to handle?

He relinquishes all parental rights to Lavinia's daughter,

or these photos

get filed with the court to contest your play for custody.

What are we looking at here if my client came forward

and admitted that the drugs in his ex-girlfriend's car

two years ago were his?

Six months.

If his lawyer's any good.

I'm good.

Hey, we can use this.

The new album drops in three months.

Think of the street cred if you're inside.

Let's do it.

Time to go.

Pleasure doing business.

Thank you, Reggie.

Ah, just a soda water please.

I'll have another.

Another round guys?

Ezra Elvins.

Why are you protecting him?

I'm not protecting him!

I was fighting for a young man's life.

He helped me do that.

You know what, whatever.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Marcie, there will be no subpoena.

The charges against Mr. Elvins

were dismissed this afternoon,

and Leah Paul's statement and affidavit just disappeared.

I made sure of that.

I don't even...

I don't even know if I can trust you anymore,

or are you just up to your old tricks?

What was it that you'd say?

I've got your back. I got you, boo.

But you ain't got nothin'.

Really?

Every time, that's what this is about, right?

It's always about Rolanda.

Yes.

It's always about Rolanda.

The one person that I cared about

more than anything in this world,

killed herself because you,

talked her into a plea,

for a crime she didn't even commit, but...

What was it, it was too

inconvenient for your career.

You don't even understand

- what you're talking about. - Really?

- No! - Then tell me.

Okay, stop telling me I didn't fight for Rolanda.

She was facing consecutive sentences,

20 counts of sexual abuse.

The Crown was pushing for 10 years.

She would have became an old woman in prison,

and I got them to basically let her walk,

so stop telling me I didn't fight for her!

I warned you.

I warned you that that plea would make her a pariah,

but you know what, everything that's happened

happened, okay?

It's just you and me.

So tell me the truth.

Community Services.

They wanted Rolanda's story off the front page.

A couple of the partners, including your idol Tessa,

they came to me.

They said that Justice was going to come in with a good deal.

So...

- Marcie, if I knew... - No.

- I warned you. - But if I knew, Marcie.

I thought this was the best result for Rolanda.

I thought I was doing right by her,

and I know the system is rigged.

But Marcie, if I knew...

After she died, I kept seeing her.

Board room, Rolanda.

Lunch room, Rolanda.

At the end of the night when I'm going home,

I'm seeing Rolanda.

Marcie, I am sorry.

I didn't hear you.

I knew.

I just...

I didn't realize how much I needed to hear you say that.

Ah, damn, um...

Marcie, I gotta go.

I gotta go.

Same one will do.

Okay, thanks.

Mrs. Ross.

Wasn't expecting to see you here.

Colm and I go way back.

You look very nice in your suit,

very "master of the universe".

Too bad you're going back into the secretarial pool.

I'm sorry?

There's no reason to be sorry,

I understand completely.

Ms. Diggs is quite...

Well she's something.

You realize you risked your entire career for nothing.

The police will bring Ms. Diggs in for questioning,

and this all starts anew,

only with somebody who values opportunity.

Mrs. Ross, you do that,

and I'll hold a press conference

to explain how the Minister of Justice

is using my office

to carry out personal grudges.

I always knew you had it in you.

See you inside.

And those are only a few of the many causes

that have benefited from Colm's generosity over the years.

This is a man that can run an empire like one big family.

And that is why we are very lucky tonight

to have Colm MacLean's very own daughter

here to present the award.

Pam, will you come up?

This is such bullshit.

In case you forgot your copy.

You all know my father,

Colm MacLean,

as a leader who has helped many of you thrive in your own ventures.

He is also one of the most innovative

businessmen in Eastern Canada.

And we all know what "innovative entrepreneur" means, right?

It means, ruthless, cut throat capitalist.

It's true.

My father's very successful because he's sharp.

He is decisive.

He is unsentimental to a fault, you might say.

He is a man who needs to win no matter what the cost,

and I should know because he treats his family the same way.

In the MacLean household,

it was always survival of the fittest,

and if you don't "fit",

if you are someone like my sister Samantha,

for instance, who suffers from schizophrenia

and is a constant source of embarrassment for my father,

if you don't fit...

If you don't fit,

he sends you away to an institution.

If you don't fit,

you don't get to be paraded around all

you beautiful people like some show dog.

If you don't fit,

you don't have to paste a smile on your face

for the pictures.

Who knew Sam was the lucky one?

Holy crap, MacLean.

- What the hell was that? - The truth.

And it felt really good.

You want to have a drink?

Um, where do you wanna go?

Do you have anything at your place?

Yeah.

Yeah let's go.

Thank you.

You may want to hold that cab.

What's going on?

You're out.

I've packed all of your clothes,

toiletries and personal items.

If you're concerned anything is missing,

call this number.

My dad's lawyer?

Marcie.

Tanya.

I knew you would show.

I just came to say goodbye,

and to thank you.

We can fight them.

If I learned anything from Lonnie,

it's that I'm better than being some man's secret.

You can't undo the past,

but I can control my future,

and I'm gonna be happy.

Friendship.

Take care, Marcie.
