- We've got money, Joe.
- How much money? Enough for generations.
Your father's going to go to jail.
You're my priority now.
We never invested with Louis Tobin.
We gave our money to Leverett, and Leverett gave it to Tobin.
We've lost everything.
I especially want to thank my sister, Ellen.
Even though I've got three years on her, - Ellie's always been my big sister.
- Carrie.
- Do you know Danielle Marchetti? - No.
Your father purchased $14,000 worth of clothes for Miss Marchetti.
Were you sleeping with her? - Patty will never find her.
- Where is she? - Hello, Danielle.
- Get out.
- Did he throw money at you right - Get out! Danielle Marchetti applied for an expedited passport.
So, Joe must have tipped off his father that we're onto her.
If we don't find Marchetti, she's going to be able to travel tonight.
Danielle? Danielle? Danielle? No, no, no, no.
Danielle! Danielle? - Are you Marchetti? - What? What? I'm picking up a Danielle Marchetti.
- Daniel, actually.
Yeah, that's That's me.
- You're heading to Farmingdale Airport? - Farmingdale? Right.
- I know I'm a little early.
I just figured since your flight's international Yes.
I'm sorry.
- You got luggage inside? - I do.
Just I'm sorry.
I think someone screwed up.
This is embarrassing.
I was gonna drive myself.
My assistant didn't call? - Give you a call? - No one called.
I'm sorry.
Sometimes she's She gets - It's a real trek out here, you know? - I understand that.
- Next time you're gonna get charged for it.
- Okay.
I appreciate it.
Thank you.
Do we know what airport Danielle Marchetti's flying out of? No.
The State Department checked for us.
She's not scheduled on any private or commercial flight leaving tonight from the tristate area.
What about the address she used on her passport application? It was bogus, but the health club where she worked is still open.
I spoke to the manager.
He's going to let me check her file.
Good.
Even if we figure out what airport she's leaving from, we don't have the authority to keep her in the country.
Just find her.
I'll worry about the rest.
- Is the plane on time? - I'm afraid not.
There's been a slight delay.
Weather over the Gulf.
- What's the new departure time? - It's scheduled for 11:08 p.
m.
Jesus.
That's four hours from now.
- I know, but it's the best we can do.
- You arrange everything else? Yes, sir.
And customs won't be a problem.
Neither you nor Miss Marchetti are on the flight manifest.
Let me know if anything else comes up.
We gotta fly her out tonight.
I am so sorry about that, Janine.
No, Mrs Tobin warned me when she gave me your number.
"He's a busy man.
" And I have been I've been wanting to meet you for so long.
Well, Marilyn's wonderful.
They They don't let Mrs Tobin come in the salon any more, so I go to her.
And I'm happy to do it.
You know, she really got a bad rap, what with her husband and all of that.
She sure did.
- You are a lawyer? - I am.
- Wow.
How is that? - Do you ever feel blessed? I do.
I do.
Absolutely.
I have a lot of great friends down at the salon.
Well, that's how I feel about the law.
- Heading out? - Dinner with my family.
- An evening with Gary and Deniece.
- My sister's coming from Oregon.
- Triple whammy.
- No, it's great.
I get to meet my niece.
- That's right! You're an aunt now.
- Crazy, huh? Is what's- his-name coming? The husband.
No.
Thank God.
He's stuck at work.
His boss wouldn't let him off.
- Sounds like a party.
Rock it out.
- You gonna hold down the fort? Yeah, someone's got to.
This Tobin case is never gonna end.
- Have a blast.
- Thank you.
- See what I mean? - I do.
It's very effervescent.
Wait, is that Is that a word? - Yes! - Is that Okay.
It certainly is a word.
Darn it.
I'm Last one, Janine.
Sorry.
Okay, this is a client, so I'll be a minute.
Just take your time, 'cause I would hate to stand - in the way of justice.
- One second.
Hey, Joe, what's up? Wait.
Tell me where you are.
- Patty.
- Ellen.
- What are you doing here? - Seeing your boss.
- You're leaving early.
- I'm going to Jersey.
Parsons family dinner.
The name you gave Tom turned out to be significant.
- Have you subpoenaed her? - Trying to.
She's not very keen on being found.
But thank you.
- And if you ever need anything - No.
It was a one-off.
Tom came to me and I was happy to help, but that's it for me in the Tobin case.
Are you sure you don't want to stick around? I think this witness is trying to flee the country.
It could be an exciting night.
I bet, but I have a train to catch, so Right, right, right, of course.
Family.
Your top priority.
I'm sorry, I'm running a little late.
Well, it's almost 7:30.
I know.
I'm trying to find a witness who may be fleeing the country.
Doesn't Patty have anyone else who can do that? No, I don't want anyone else doing it.
It's too important.
Well, my parents are gonna be here any minute, and I thought we were gonna tell them together.
We will.
Look, I'm the one who got your parents to invest with Tobin.
I want to be the one to explain it to them.
You really think this witness could help your case? It's the best lead that we have right now.
All right, babe.
Do what you have to do.
Look, have dinner with your folks.
I promise you I'll be there by dessert.
We'll tell them together.
What happened? I hit you with my car.
Yeah, I was looking for my cat.
Yeah.
Put this on your face.
How long was I out? I don't know.
Just a little while.
My head hurts.
I called for help, so don't worry.
My whole side is sore.
- What time is it? - Why, you have someplace to be? Stay down.
Jesus, Joe, what's going on? - Where is she? - In the other room.
What are you doing here? Did you know my father was sleeping with Danielle Marchetti? - No.
- Did you, Lenny? No.
He told me after you confronted him.
I'm sorry.
Why is he putting her on an aeroplane tonight? All he said was he didn't want Patty Hewes questioning her.
Then Danielle must know about the money.
Jesus Christ! Could he be that goddamn stupid? To put his whole family's future in her hands? Her? Joe, I'm as much in the dark as you are.
But she is in there, and we need to decide what to do with her.
We don't have a choice.
If she knows about the money, - we get her out of the country.
- I think we have to do that.
- Patty? - Curtis.
I was asked to wait.
You're off to a fundraiser? - A wake, actually.
My great-uncle.
- I'm sorry.
- Man was a prick, but thanks.
- I'm afraid this is urgent.
Danielle Marchetti.
She used to be the receptionist at Louis Tobin's health club.
Your people questioned her a couple of months ago.
And? Well, she and Tobin may have been having an affair, but that's not the exciting part.
You think she might be involved in the fraud? Yes.
I also think she's trying to flee the country tonight.
Sheryl, can you track down Judge Reilly's cell number for me? - You have a flight number? - Not yet.
So, you'll talk to Reilly? Yeah.
We'll need a warrant to detain Marchetti.
What do you have on her? This is nothing.
Patty, you're asking me to detain her without evidence? I'm asking you to prevent a person of interest from fleeing the country.
Based on a hunch? You're the court-appointed trustee.
There are rules.
I know you're not used to that.
This woman could prove critical to our case.
If you let her slip through our hands, we'll both regret it.
Well, then get me something real.
I'm sorry.
I can't detain her without cause.
- She's beautiful.
- She's perfect.
Here you go.
- Did you pump? - No, it's organic formula.
Charlotte loves it.
You're not breastfeeding? She had trouble latching on at first, and my nipples got all cracked, so - Whoa, whoa, whoa! Not at my table.
- Your father's squeamish.
I'm not squeamish.
I'm eating.
And I gotta tell you, formula's no good.
It's fine.
I looked it up online.
There's nothing wrong with formula.
I'm telling you girls, when you were babies, your mother never would've dreamed of it.
Say, whatever happened to that guy you were seeing - with the cowboy name? - Wes.
- That ended a few months back.
- We never even got to meet him.
It's not a big deal.
I don't even know what he's doing any more.
I'm sorry that Eddie couldn't make it.
I was looking forward to seeing him.
Yeah, he really wanted to make the trip, but, you know, just bad timing.
League semi-finals.
You know how Eddie is and his sports.
- Bowling's not a sport.
- I thought you said he was working.
- I did? - Yeah.
Well, who can keep track of these things? Nice priorities.
Bowling over family.
Danielle stopped working at the health club a few months ago, but she had a forwarding address that she wants her last cheque to be sent to.
I'm heading there now.
All right.
Where did you get with the D.
A.
's office? Nowhere.
Curtis Gates is determined to play by the rules, so unless we find her first, Danielle Marchetti is free to leave the country.
All right, I'll be in touch.
You remember Lenny.
Barely.
It's been a while.
I'm sorry this happened, and I know you've been shaken up, but we need to know if you're onboard with Louis' plan.
We know about your flight.
- I need to see a doctor.
- I've already arranged one.
He's on his way.
Okay.
If he says I'm safe to fly, then I'll go.
Your father wants me on that plane.
And you give my father anything he wants, don't you? - Where are you going? - I need some air.
- Hey, what happened to your wake? - He'll still be dead at the funeral.
- Did you find anything? - No, and I have been through everything we've got on Marchetti.
Who did the interview with her at the health club? I did, a month and a half ago.
I got the transcript right here.
I don't like Patty knowing something that we don't.
Boss, I'm telling you, I talked to Marchetti.
There is nothing in here.
Well, then why does Patty want me to detain her? I don't know.
Maybe she's wrong.
- Or maybe she's keeping evidence from us.
- Just give me that.
Danielle Marchetti? Miss Marchetti? - Can I help you? - You live around here? Yeah, across the street.
I'm looking for a Danielle Marchetti.
I think she lives here.
Danielle? Yeah, sure.
Terrific girl.
She helps my wife with the shopping once in a while.
- When was the last time you saw her? - Well, I can't say for sure.
She in some kind of trouble? No, I just I just wanted to talk to her.
- Well, I'll be sure to tell her.
- Great.
Thank you.
- Good night.
- Good night.
Hey, Patty.
I'm at Danielle Marchetti's.
There's a car in the driveway, but no one seems to be home.
Call me when you get this.
Hey, Deb.
No, I haven't been able to find her.
I don't think traffic's gonna be a problem.
Just tell your mom and dad I'm on my way.
Leonard, you still here? - Thank you for coming.
- Some guy was snooping around out there.
Tom Shayes.
He works for Patty Hewes.
- Did he see you? - No.
He's gone now.
Good.
This way, Dr Brandt.
Patient's in here.
Just relax.
- That hurt? - Yeah.
- What do you think? - How did this happen? She fell on the stairs.
What What does it matter? Can she fly, Karl? - Looking for something? - Someone.
- Having any luck? - No.
That's why I need you.
- Can you stick around here for a while? - I have no plans.
What do you have in mind? I'll tell you later.
I have to make a phone call first.
She's definitely sustained a concussion.
I'm a little worried that her rib may be broken.
Karl, we need to know if she can fly.
If this were any other patient, I'd say get her to a hospital, but if it's necessary - What time's the flight? - 11:00.
Observe her until then.
And make sure her speech remains lucid.
Now, if she seems to start to slur her words or seems a little light-headed, or if that nausea gets any worse, you need to get her right to a hospital.
Karl, we can't thank you enough.
Thank you.
- Are you okay? You look a little - I'm fine.
- Leonard Winstone speaking.
- This is Patty Hewes.
What a pleasant surprise.
But perhaps I could call you back first thing tomorrow? I know about Danielle Marchetti.
I'm not familiar with that name.
Then you won't mind if I leak her affair with Louis Tobin to the press.
- Miss Hewes.
- I'm waiting for you in my office.
In 30 minutes, everything I've got gets released to the Post.
- What? - I have to meet Patty Hewes.
What does she want? She's threatening to release your father's affair to the press.
This is Danielle Marchetti.
We spoke a while back.
I think that we need to talk again.
Please call me.
I'll stay here and watch her.
- You okay doing that? - Why wouldn't I be? All right, well, then meet me at Farmingdale Airport, hangar 6.
Flight's at 11:08, okay? - You find anything? - No.
You? Why the hell do you think I'm asking you? Call your wife.
Tell her you're not coming home tonight.
Yeah, I'm not married.
Jesus.
How long have I worked here? - Dad, where does this go? - That one? No idea.
Ask your mother.
You know, you're looking good, kid.
You seem happier than usual.
Thanks, Dad.
- Hey, Mom, where does this go? - I'll put it away, honey.
I never meant to hurt you.
You asked when it started.
I'll tell you if you still want to know.
Was it when you were still with me? Yes.
- When? - About a year before you went into rehab.
I'm sorry, Joe.
You were a wreck.
So you dump me, and you start with my father.
I don't know what you want me to say.
Joe.
- It wasn't what you think.
- You don't know what I think.
- He did it for you, you know.
- What? You were a wreck, so he did it.
- What? Did what? - He was only on and off.
So he did it.
I don't want to wreck any more.
- So you start with my father.
- Danielle.
What are you talking about? - He wrecked it on and off.
- Danielle? Just say what you want me to say.
Shit.
I thought you should see this.
What is it? My statement to the press about Danielle Marchetti.
It's very well written.
- But I don't think you want to do this.
- Why not? Because not one word of that is true.
- Tell me where she is.
- I couldn't even tell you who she is.
I'm trying to do you a favour, Mr Winstone.
The choice is yours.
Either deal with this privately tonight, or explain to your clients in the morning why you let the whole world know that Louis Tobin was screwing a towel girl half his age.
I wonder what option Mrs Tobin would prefer? I appreciate the courtesy call, but I'm not worried about Marilyn.
- No? - I'm just worried about the truth.
And that woman has nothing to do with the Tobins.
Well, then it's my mistake.
I'm sorry for getting you all the way down here for nothing.
Hello? - How's the girl? - I don't Something's wrong.
Her nose is bleeding, she can't finish sentences.
It could be a subdural hematoma.
Bleeding in the brain.
Well, what happens if she flies? Fly? She can't fly.
You need to get her to a hospital.
- You hear me? - Yes.
Joe, you put her on that plane and she will die.
I understand.
- Yeah? - This is Chris Sharp from the district attorney's office.
I'm returning Miss Marchetti's call.
Well, that's weird.
A guy answered and he hung up.
Next time keep your damn cell phone on you.
Okay? What'd the doctor say? He said you need to stay hydrated, and not to take any aspirin, but it's nothing to worry about.
Okay, good.
You're good to go.
Yeah.
Hey.
Sorry I'm late.
- Hello, Tom.
- Hi, Ginny.
- Art.
- Hi.
Hi.
Sorry.
Thank you.
Get yourself the steak frites.
It's delicious.
- I had the halibut.
Not a fan.
- I'm actually I'm not very hungry.
Tom and I really just wanted to talk to you guys.
Your husband's been running around all day.
Let the man eat.
No, no, no, I'm I'm fine.
I'm sorry, I just need one more minute.
I'll be right back.
Patty? Yeah.
They were still in the house.
Look, write this down.
It's a licence plate number.
N-Z-E-4-7-4-5.
Did you ever think when you were up here making out with Mike Delvecchio that you would be changing diapers someday? God, no.
What's going on, Carrie? What do you mean? Downstairs, with the envelope.
Mom looked like she was crying.
Did something happen with Eddie? - I'm sure it's temporary.
- What's temporary? What did he do? He left me three weeks ago, and I haven't heard from him since.
Why didn't you tell me? 'Cause I just I didn't want to bother you, you know? You have too much on your plate already.
Don't be silly, let me help.
Don't ask Mom for money.
They can't afford it.
How much do you need? - No.
You know what? Ellen, I can't.
- It is not a problem.
Truly.
I'll write you a cheque.
Thank you.
Are you gonna stay here? Just till I get on my feet.
- Does Dad know? - No.
No.
And he's gonna freak out.
You know he's going to blame me.
I just I can't take that right now, Ellen.
I just don't I don't want to be yelled at.
I know, I know, but you're gonna have to tell him soon.
I was going to in the morning.
Can you Can you stay? I just really don't want to do this alone.
I really want to be there for you, I do, I I have to work.
I know.
You know what? I totally understand.
It's okay.
Do you know how long the flight will be? We can ask when we get there, okay? - You look like your dad right now.
- Stop talking, please.
How do I know you? Your voice sounds so familiar.
Just rest, okay? So, what is it you want to talk about, Tom? You two look tense.
Look, there's no good way to say this, but I want to tell you before you got your next financial statements.
Financial statements? What's this about? I screwed up.
Jesus, one day in this house and your crap's in every single room! You and Eddie want to be slobs, fine.
Do it in your house, not mine! - Gary, I don't think she's a slob.
- I said I'm sorry.
I didn't even put this stuff here, Mom did.
- Don't you blame your mother! - Dad, stop it! I think she gets it.
Are you ready to leave, honey? We can take you to the train.
No, Ma, I think I'm gonna stay the night.
Well, how wonderful.
Our two girls under the same roof.
Fine with me.
One less trip to the station.
Gary, honey.
It's gonna be okay.
- How far away are you? - I'm 10 minutes from the airport.
We found her.
She's on the way to the airport.
We have a licence plate number.
I told you, Patty, we're not gonna detain her without cause.
- We have cause.
- What is it? He's driving with a broken taillight.
Shit.
Shit.
- How are you? - Licence and registration.
- Is there a problem? - Your taillight's busted.
I'm sorry.
- What's wrong with her? - She's She's ill.
I was actually just taking her to the hospital.
Really? 'Cause the hospital's a mile back.
- You just passed it.
- Really? She's not coming.
I thought I'd get here to stop her myself, but it turns out I didn't have to.
The police pulled her over.
Actually, they pulled Joe Tobin over.
Danielle Marchetti was unconscious in the backseat.
Gee, that all sounds terrific, but I have no idea what you're talking about.
It took me a while to find the airport she was flying out of, but I figured it out.
And surprise, surprise, I find you here.
Yeah, I'm off for a weekend in the Bahamas.
Care to join? Danielle's in the hospital, in case you're wondering.
What happened, Mr Winstone? Joe told the police she fell? Patty, listen, before you issue the press release - There's no press release.
There never was.
- I see.
You had me followed.
That's how you found the airport.
- I'm impressed.
- Tonight's been educational.
I always knew the Tobins were hiding something.
Now I know you're helping them do it.
My colleague's already served Danielle with a subpoena, so I got what I wanted.
Good night, Mr Winstone.
Here's a cheque.
Thanks, Ellie.
There's a t-shirt and stuff upstairs, if you want to borrow it.
- Find everything you need? - Yeah.
Remember this? I do.
Look at you two.
Were we not adorable? I'll be right back.
Hey, Patty, it's Ellen.
I was just wondering.
Did you find that witness?
