Him and Megan got into a huge fight earlier

Okay...

So...

it was Antonia Hablanis moving her listing

to Livingston‐Kent.

And the Kims have decided not to list with us because, uh...

Nice one!

The answer, uh,

You were a normal kid.

And if you weren't,

I'd've loved you every bit as much as I did.

Your mother probably still would have left us.

Wasn't you, Luke.

It wasn't even me.

It was her.

‐ She said I was a disappointment and a failure.

‐ Now, that doesn't sound like her.

I knew her, Luke.

I knew her in the good times

and, God, they were good.

I loved her a long time.

Long after she left us.

Can't say for sure I ever stopped.

We're good at the fundamentals. Marketing. Sales. Staging.

They account for most of the time and aggravation.

Okay.

We're a guitar

and a sheet cake away from being a support group.

Luke has a lot on his mind.

‐ Hey, y'all. Let's make this quick.

Just got off the phone with a Lisa Neal in New York.

She got our name from Tessa Green.

‐ Word of mouth. The best advertising.

‐ Ms. Neal's aunt Nellie recently passed away.

They didn't know each other; last living relative

type of thing. Anyway, she wants us to clean up the place

and liquidate it for the estate.

‐ Natural causes?

‐ Sounds like it. She was almost 90.

‐ Natural causes sounds like a nice change of pace.

‐ So, I grew up in the neighborhood.

When I was a kid,

I used to make some extra money mowing their lawn.

I never met Ms. Neal ‐‐

she never went outside as far as I know ‐‐

and I'd always find a couple of bucks stuck to the mailbox

with a clothespin.

Years later I found out it was my dad putting out money for me.

Felt sorry for the lady.

‐ Your father sounds like a fine man.

‐ He was.

Anyway, it is a nice,

normal place and I'm going to make it my project

for the next couple of days.

‐ We can hire people.

‐ I just need to be busy with something.

I have a feeling this house is going to be pretty heinous

on the inside, so have Shelley Disposal

deliver a dumpster, would you?

Pass my calls along to Susan, okay?

I will check in once in a while.

‐ Nanny‐cam?

‐ Some technologies require no improvement.

‐ So, I dug into this nice, normal Neal house.

It's built by Nellie's parents back in the 50's.

She would have been about 16 then.

She inherited the place just a few months later

when her parents died in a freak accident.

‐ I become apprehensive when the words

"freak" and "accident" are used concurrently.

‐ Yeah.

I tracked down the police report.

They each fell out of two different attic windows

at the same time.

‐ Wow. And what are the odds?

‐ Over the years, police have taken multiple complaints:

garbage, weeds, varmints, et cetera.

Social services registered seven visits

in the last three years.

All attempts to remove Ms. Neal from the house

failed.

‐ 'Til she got the big remove.

‐ Yeah.

Face up on the porch.

It was the first time anyone can remember seeing her outside.

‐ This seems like information Luke should know.

‐ He's turned his phone off.

That's the thing.

I don't know!

I woke up in the library.

It was a mess, just like this.

Someone was in the house!

No, I don't think he's capable

of this kind of irrational crime of passion.
