[intense music playing]
[dramatic music playing]
[woman sobbing]
Please.
-Please don't. [sobbing]
-[Roy] Shh, shh.
I'm sorry.
Please don't do this.
[sighs] It's too late
for that, come on.
Make it out to cash.
Please don't do this.
Cash.
[Roy] Come on.
Yeah.
[engine revving]
You took way too long in there.
You were babying them.
Worked.
It's fine. Just keep driving.
[tense music playing]
[siren wailing]
Fuck. Drive!
[engine rumbling]
Go!
[car horn honking]
Yes, faster, go!

Keep going faster!
Okay. Fuck, look!
[car horn honking]
-Yes!
-[both laughing]
Woo!
[siren wailing]
[gentle music playing]
[both moaning, panting]
Fuckin' A, you--
Fuck.
-Oh, my God.
-[both chuckling]
[suspenseful music playing]
Cheers, my love.
Cheers. [chuckles]
Mm.
Now go get ready.
We have an exciting day planned.
These parties
are getting exhausting.
Okay, well...
We have been
here before, Conrad.
You are going to enjoy yourself.
This party
is going to be amazing.
And it certainly
won't be the last,
so snap out of it and get ready.
I really don't have
the energy for this.
I don't know.
I think you might have...
a little bit of energy
left inside of you.
Am I correct, Mr. Stirling?
-Uh-huh.
-[both chuckling]
[Mitch] I beg your pardon,
Mrs. Stirling.
Preparations for this evening
are complete.
Your guests
will be arriving in a few hours.
How wonderful.
Thank you, Mitchell.
My pleasure, ma'am.
[TV show playing]
[reporter]
...the 20-year-old male.
The male who opened fire
at the Umpqua Community College
was killed,
according to Douglas County
Sheriff John Hamlin.
The New York Times has reported
that there have been more
than 40 school shootings
in 2015 alone.
President Obama
spoke about...
Do you think
he bought this for her?
What?
The necklace.
I don't know.
He stole it, probably.
Yeah, probably right.
The kind of shit
they got away with.
Think they got
what they deserved in the end.
You didn't have to shoot her.
I didn't.
-You did.
-[woman screaming]
[gunshot popping]
[laughs]
-You're cold.
-I'm an orphan.
The shit those people
did to those kids is just--
it's way too close to home.
You ever look for them?
Who?
Your, you know...
birth parents?
From what I know,
my mother's likely dead
and my father is probably
in, like, Mexico or some shit.
You never thought about, like...
finding him?
Well, even if they are alive,
the assholes gave me up.
They clearly
don't want to be found,
and I don't want to find them.
[sighs]
[reporter] Yesterday,
after a brief car chase,
two suspects, a man and woman,
both in their early 20s,
managed to evade police,
leaving behind
what authorities are uncovering
as a gruesome crime scene.
After years of reports
on child labor exploitation
and countless ties
to missing teens,
it seems that the authorities
have enough evidence
to prosecute
Amy and Mark Bronson.
Reporting live.
Who would do such a thing?
It's a true tragedy.
[dramatic music playing]
[TV show playing]
Fuck!
Shit, okay,
you didn't have to kill them!
That was stupid!
Look at what you did!
What I did?
You took forever in there,
and somebody obviously
called the cops on us.
What do we do now?
What's that?
This is how we get out of this.
I've been saving this one
for the right time,
and, well,
now there's no more time.
We'll hit them the same way
we've done our other jobs,
only the scale's
a little bit bigger,
but so is the payout.
And then we can disappear.
Who are they?
I used to work in their mansion.
They're fuck-off rich.
And I know for a fact
they have a couple million
in bearer bonds.
-What's a bearer bond?
-Bearer bond?
It's an unregistered
piece of paper
with a dollar amount on it.
Now, that dollar amount
belongs to whoever
holds it in their hands.
Get it?
But aren't there names on it?
Don't we need, like, ID
to cash that out or some shit?
We can't just go to the bank
and take out the money, can we?
No.
There are no names on it.
It belongs to whoever
holds it in their hands.
Literally.
So, what then?
We'll be in and out
in an hour, I promise.
And once we get that money...
you and me are gone for good.
[indistinct chatter]
Oh, we are so ex-- excited
to get the two of you
to join us!
Wouldn't miss it for the world.
My God.
[Barbara] I never get bored
of walking through this house.
You two really have
something special here.
[George] Indeed.
[all laughing]
-Oh, look at this.
-Wow.
-[Ethel clears throat]
-[Conrad sighs]
[intense music playing]
[engine humming]
Cheers,
to our truly wonderful family.
[Ethel chuckles]
Well, Eth, how on earth does one
follow such illustrious words?
-I do not know.
-Oh, well, one doesn't.
-Oh.
-[all laughing]
[suspenseful music playing]
Well, as you all know,
when it comes to matters
of public speaking,
I am a short
and sweet type of guy.
And in matters of the bedroom,
I think
Barbara can attest to that.
[clears throat]
Behave yourself, Conny.
[all chuckling nervously]
We've accomplished a lot.
Except for that business
up in Canada, right, Conrad?
[groans] Disastrous.
Never again.
They have no idea
what they're doing up there.
[George chuckles]
Ah, Conrad, and my dear Ethel,
cheers to you both
for being such wonderful friends
for such a long time.
And cheers to another
25 years of business together.
-[Ethel exclaims]
-We love you both dearly.
-That's it?
-Hmm?
"We love you both dearly."
Is that the best
you can come up with?
[Ethel clears throat]
What if this is the last time
we see each other?
That's all you've got?
[laughs] I'm messing with you.
[all laughing nervously]
You're-- you're always
such a cinch to wind up.
Oh, come on, it was too easy.
Cheers, to my good old friends.
Another 25 years.
Uh, oh.
Barbara, I simply adore
that nail color on you.
Perfectly complements
the shape of your fingers.
Oh, thank you, Ethel. [chuckles]
I just got them done yesterday
at this lovely place downtown.
We could go sometime.
-Yes.
-[both chuckling]
Conny,
this champagne is divine.
I was waiting for
the right occasion to open it.
So please, drink,
drink, drink, drink.
If I don't eat something soon,
I'm gonna die.
-[all laughing]
-Well, you are in luck. [laughs]
Mitch, would you bring
the hors d'oeuvres?
-[Barbara] Oh.
-I could use a top up, Mitchie.
Doesn't get much right,
but his cooking almost makes up
for his stupidity.
I think with the meal tonight,
we will sample
the Chateau Megantic,
the Cab Merlot.
Of course, ma'am.
Wonderful choice.

[dramatic music playing]
[insects chirping]
[Orchid] Okay,
this is close enough.
You ready?
Born ready.
[Orchid chuckles]
No, no, no, not now.
No. [chuckling]
After everything,
right, because--
We won't be back for days.
I love you.
I know.
[knocking on window]
Remember why I hate the country.
Roll down in the window.
[clears throat]
Hi.
Hello.
Everything all right?
Oh, yeah, we're good. Thanks.
Car problems or, um...
This old thing? No.
Um, she just needs
a minute to cool off.
-She's a little temperamental.
-[all chuckling]
Well, I can take a look
just to be sure.
-Oh, no, that's okay.
-No, I don't mind.
You know, just open it up
and see what's going on.
Yeah, it's really--
Bill here is
a regular hobby mechanic,
well, at least he thinks he is.
Oh, oh, come on, Bill.
I'm sure these two lovely people
have better things
to do with their time
than to watch you
poking around at their engine
until you finally admit
you have no idea
what's going on under there.
[Bill laughs]
Well, if you change your mind,
we're just up the road
to the right.
You can't miss it.
There's a--
there's a fork in the road,
Stirlings are on the left,
we're on the right.
Thank you.
-[engine revving]
-Oh, look at that.
[laughs] Ah, you're right.
Sometimes a little timeout's
all you need.
-You have a lovely day.
-[Bill sighs]
Come on, Bill.
[Orchid clears throat]
[dramatic music playing]
[scoffing]
There's a car in the driveway.
They must be home.
[Orchid] Perfect.
Let's go around back,
get in through the basement,
then make our way
through their house
until we find the safe.
Got it.
Right. Got it.
[laughing]
And then he paid
the Mexican police.
This-- no, this part's true.
He paid the Mexis
100 bucks each,
so that we could keep
the marijuana,
and then they smoked it with us.
[all laughing]
And it was the most fantastic.
Those-- those--
those Mexicans really know
how to grow good weed.
-[all laughing]
-[Ethel] Oh.
To be young. [chuckles]
Dinner's served.
Oh, wow. It looks delicious.
Hmm.
Mitch, be a dear
and tell our guests
what we're having.
Of course.
Tonight,
you'll be enjoying roast quail
with a truffle palm puree,
red wine demi-glace,
and a medley
of seasonal root vegetables,
sauteed in butter,
garlic, and white wine.
Roast quail
from our own property, no less.
Caught this morning, sir.
Mitch is an excellent marksman.
Oh. [chuckles]
It looks magnificent.
Well, Mitch
is an absolute magician
in that kitchen. [chuckles]
So, everyone, let's enjoy.
[chuckles] We are so grateful
to have such wonderful friends.
George, so thankful
that we've been able to have
so many memories
with you and Barbara
over the years.
So, let's enjoy
this phenomenal feast
and have...
another unforgettable
evening together.
[intense music playing]
[Roy snorts]
Rich people
and their fancy wines.
We should have a bottle or two
on our way out. [laughs]
We're here for something
a little more important
than wine.
[muffled chatter]
[Orchid sighs]
Did you know
that they're having a party?
-No. Did you?
-How would I know?
Relax, babe. It's fine.
We can handle
a few extra people.
Right.
Well, let's go, then.
I don't think we're going
to find a safe in here...
but I could get used to this.
Shh! Shut up.
[exhales]
[muffled chatter]
[panting]
That's why you deserve
to eat fucking garbage.
What's wrong with you?
[breathing heavily]
Don't-- don't--
don't give a fuck.
Don't give me that look.
[panting]
Orchid.
What is it?
Nothing. Nothing.
Just-- just a stupid butler.
It's fine. Let's go.
We need to get upstairs.
[suspenseful music playing]
[muffled laughter]
[George] Where was I?
I can't put my finger on it.
[Barbara] Uh, Mexico, no?
[overlapping chatter]

[paper rustling]
[lock clicking]
[Roy sighs]
[Roy grunting]
[Roy sighs]
Definitely something
going on in this room.
-Hey.
-[Orchid gasps]
-[Orchid panting]
-What? What is it?
-What's going on with you?
-Nothing.
It's fine.
I'm fine.
There's nothing in this room.
Did you even hear me?
Everything's locked down
in this room.
The paintings,
the closet, everything.
They're hiding something
in here for sure.
Orchid, come here.
Let's just keep moving, okay?
[suspenseful music playing]
How you doing, George?
Everything's fine.
[mutters] Everything's great.
[clears throat]
[George blows]
-[Conrad laughs]
-What?
That...
[hypnotic music playing]
That wine... [laughs]
...really is something.
What year
did you say it was?
[Conrad laughs]
I didn't. [laughs]
George, uh...
[Barbara groans]
There's one.
[George] Uh...
Conrad...
Barbara?
There's two. [laughs]
Mm.
[glass shattering]
Okay, you're concerning me.
Oh, how lovely.
Mitch. Perfect timing.
Would you mind
showing our guests to the room?
Yes, ma'am.
-[sighs] Here.
-[pills clattering]
Take this.
Sweetie,
I'm hardly in the mood. [sighs]
It's not that kind.
This will enhance your mood.
Oh, the happy pill.
[chuckles] The happy pill.
[Ethel squeaking]
[suspenseful music playing]
Did you open the door
to our bedroom?
-What?
-[Ethel groans]
[alarm beeping]
[door creaks open]
Anything?
Yeah. These.
A lot of them.
Where'd you find this?
Over there.
[dramatic music playing]
Are you not at all curious
why they have these?
It doesn't alarm you
just a little?
Doesn't matter.
Let's find the safe.

I don't hear anyone anymore.
Where the fuck are they?
They should be awake any minute.
This is my favorite part.
I know, Mitch.
[chuckles]
So, who's first?
Hmm? Any preferences?
Well, I, for one, would like
to see Barbara go first.
-[Ethel chuckles]
-[Conrad] Neither.
Can't do it, Eth.
Excuse me?
Look, the happy pill
is kicking in.
I feel good.
Look, I don't have
the stomach for it.
Not tonight, anyway.
No.
No, Conrad.
You don't get to pull this shit.
Not right now.
[intense music playing]
Hey, get the--
What the hell is wrong with you?
Get-- Orchid,
get the fuck back here!
What the fuck?
What the--
what the hell is wrong with you?
Hey, Orchid, get back here!
Don't you walk away,
you little bitch!
[Orchid sobbing]

I don't like this.
No safe. No people.
Nothing to go on.
Let's just sit tight somewhere
and wait for them to show up.
-No.
-What--
What if they're onto us?
Don't you think they're onto us?
-No.
-Well-- well, what if they are?
This-- this doesn't feel right.
Look...
you and I both know
that what makes or breaks us
is confidence.
Do you have it or not?
I think
it's having a plan, Orchid.
What?
What makes or breaks us
is having a plan.
We do have a plan.
Find the Stirlings.
Make them bend to our will
and take us to the safe.
[intriguing music playing]
[Conrad sighs]
Would you please sit down
and stop pacing, my love?
I would if I could.
Blue pill, remember?
[George groaning in pain]
Conny...
there's something
definitely wrong with that wine.
[Ethel laughs]
Why-- why am I tied up?
-[Barbara groaning]
-What's-- what's going on?
[Barbara] Oh, Jesus Christ.
-[Mitch laughing]
-Ooh.
Wait, what?
What-- what is going on?
George? What?
Okay. [laughs nervously]
Conrad. I get it.
I get it.
You got us again. [laughs]
I realize now
that my, uh, comment
regarding that business
up in Canada
was a little in- propos.
[chuckles] Okay?
So I, uh-- I apologize.
I just-- untie us
and let's go back
to wherever we were.
Unfortunately,
that's not going to happen.
[chuckles] No.
See, you two...
you're never
getting out of this room.
[Barbara whimpering]
[Barbara groaning in effort]
Let us out of here right now.
[Ethel]
Barbara, honey, calm down
and listen to me, okay?
[Barbara groaning in effort]
Barbara, you are going
to lay nice and still.
And be nice and quiet, okay?
-[Barbara panting]
-Or...
I'm going to jab this into you
in the most painful way
that I can think.
This is not--
not an open door policy here.
You're in
when I tell you you're in.
[suspenseful music playing]
You had-- you had nothing.
You look like a princess.

This is a fast-acting neurotoxin
that causes
rapid muscular paralysis.
In less than 20 seconds,
you won't be able to move,
but you'll feel everything.
Why are you doing this?
What did we do to you?
It's not you, Barbara.
You didn't do anything. It's--
It's us. It's what we do.
Puttin' us--
you sick, demented fuck.
Is this all because of
what happened to Ethel and I?
Conny,
that was over a decade ago.
-[Barbara] What?
-What? What's he talking about?
I have no idea.
Words of a desperate man.
You really are fucked up,
you know that, Ethel?
Oh, well, that's no way
to talk to a lady.
-That's what you call yourself?
-Hey, manners, Georgie.
Go fuck yourself, Conrad.
Excuse me. Ma'am.
[Conrad] Who would that be?
More importantly, what are
they doing in our house?
Interesting.
Looks as though
we're being robbed.
-Checked the wrong house.
-[chuckles] They sure did.
And you two,
don't even bother screaming.
No one will ever hear you.
[chuckles] Mitch, darling,
would you mind
tending to our new guests?
-My pleasure, ma'am.
-Mm. Wonderful.
[Roy] Well, looks like
the party's over.
[dramatic music playing]
This is really starting to
rub me the wrong way, Orchid.
You're acting weird.
This house is weird.
People are magically gone.
Everything about this
is not right.
Hello?
Hello?
[Conrad]
You are such an idiot.
That's a $300 bottle of wine.
[Orchid] I promise you,
I-- I didn't mean to.
It was an accident.
Clean it the fuck up.
I want it--
I want that floor perfect.
Honestly, what's wrong with you?
How stupid can you be?
I asked you a question.
How stupid can you be?
I'm sorry, I'm trying.
Yeah, every time you try,
something gets broken.
Hello?
Hello?
-Sorry.
-Hello?
Sorry, this house is just, um...
just starting to get to me.
-That's all.
-It's more than that.
There's more going on here
that you're not telling me.
[Orchid sniffles]
Let's just keep moving, okay?
[intense music playing]

[painting creaking]
[painting creaking]
You want to go back
on the streets, huh?

Well, hon. [clears throat]
-[plier clicking]
-Let's get started.
-Mm. Hold on, Conny.
-What?
I think
we should wait for Mitch.
Yeah, why would we do that?
Why would we wait for Mitch?
Well, this is his favorite part.
He just mentioned he'd like
to be here, that's all.
-[Conrad] Oh, did he now?
-[Ethel] Yes.
Well, he's currently dealing
with, uh, our guests upstairs.
Yes, I'm aware of that.
But I think
if we start without him,
it might hurt his feelings.
Who gives a fuck
about his feelings?
The guy's an idiot.
I do.
-[Conrad] I can see that.
-And he's not an idiot.
He thinks
you can milk a chicken, Eth.
-[laughs] Milk a chicken.
-Mm-hmm.
Well, maybe you could have
a little more
compassion, Conny.
The guy has had
a really tough go.
[Conrad] Is that what you call
what you've got here for him,
some compassion?
[laughs] Let's not go there.
Jealousy is
a very unbecoming quality.
You think I don't hear
the little whispering exchanges?
I wasn't born yesterday.
Well, you're certainly
acting like you were.
[thudding]
Getting a refill.
[Ethel] A re-what?
We're kind of in the middle
of something here,
you alcoholic.
Relax, sweetheart.
I'm not going anywhere.
Fine.
I'll do it myself.
[sighs] Very sorry
you two had to witness that.
Behavior is downright
objectionable at times.
His fits of jealousy he gets in
when he drinks are...
so unwarranted.
What did I do with...
Needle. I had it right here.
I knew I did.
[door creaking]
[alarm beeping]
-Check the cupboards.
-[Roy] Yeah.
Where the fuck could they be?
We cleared upstairs.
Cleared down here.
Outside?
No, they've got to be here.
[sighs]
They could have gone past us.
Are you going to tell me
what's really going on?
This is not like any other job
I've ever done before.
Ever.
What's the deal with you
and this house?
With the Stirlings?
It's complicated.
Used to work
in this house for years.
There's just a few bad memories
popping up, that's all.
But it doesn't change
anything.
Okay?
We're gonna find them,
and we're gonna get
what we came for.
-[Roy screams]
-[gunshots banging]
How did that--
Oh, dear.
Bitch.
Atta girl.
Barbara, the tool!
[Roy breathing heavily]
-You okay?
-No.
How bad is it?
He got me pretty good.
Who the fuck was that asshole?
That was Mitch, their servant.
No, no.
That guy's more than a butler.
Okay, come on, let's go.
-Come on, let's--
-Wait, George.
What?
We've got to do
something about her.
Well, you want to kill her?
I mean, I wouldn't mind.
I'm in.
You know, actually, what?
I think you should do it.
I mean-- if you're comfortable
with it.
Oh, obviously I do.
[sighs]
But I'm not sure that I can.
-Oh, me neither.
-[Barbara sighs]
Ah.
[slurring] Mitchie, my boy.
You dealt with
our uninvited guests?
Almost, sir.
Hey, you, uh,
you have a little...
wound there. [laughs]
I need a refill.
[clears throat]
Can I ask you a question?
Now's not the time, sir.
Oh, cut the sir shit, Mitch.
Please, you needn't placate me
any further.
I like to think
we're both honorable men.
Well, I like to think I am.
You...
the jury's still out
on that one.
Oh, Ethel.
She certainly has
an effect on people.
One that
I'm not entirely immune to.
The way she looks at you...
her demeanor, her outwardness.
She has the uncanny ability
to make one feel like they are
the center of the universe.
More importantly,
the center of her universe.
At any moment.
It's like a drug.
And see,
once you've had that, Mitchie,
once you've...
been inside that with her,
like a child yearning
for its mother's love,
you realize
you can't live without it.
You see, Mitch?
A feeling like that
can stay with a man...
for a very, very long time.
It can make a man do...
all kinds of fucked up things.
But I wager
you're well aware of that.
Now's hardly the time, sir.
-Okay. Just a sec.
-What?
Conrad is up there somewhere.
Listen, that ball-less prick.
He's three sheets to the wind.
-I'm not worried about him.
-Hmm.
-[both] The butler.
-Precisely.
That droopy-eyed bastard
is up there.
But listen,
if anything happens to me,
just get out and run.
Just run and don't stop.
-All right?
-Mhm.
A woman like Ethel and a man...
like me...
are diametric.
We aren't simply connected.
We travel through each other.
We are each other.
Yeah, sure.
You may be younger,
and stronger...
maybe even have
a harder cock.
Well, may-- well, maybe.
I mean, I could...
Eh.
But you will never take
what I have.
Our plan was to kill you.
[Conrad laughs]
A lot of that going around.
And then what?
Shall I venture a guess
what the plan might be?
Surely a man of your...
immense mental fortitude
has worked it all out
to the very last detail.
So enlighten me...
robot. [laughs]
Thank you
for everything you've done
for me, Mr. Stirling.
I'll try to make this as quick
and painless as possible.
[door beeping]
[door creaks open]
[both grunting]
[Barbara] Help!
Help!
Help!
Help!
Help!
Help!
Help!
[screams] Help!
Help!
Help!
Who the fuck was that?
[Ethel gasping]
Well, I guess
we're halfway there, huh?
Yep, finally got
George to shut up.
Oh, if you're looking for Mitch,
he went that way.
You guys can make another plan.
Huh.
Hmm.
Looks like you're gonna
need another refill.
Hello?
Anybody home?
Honey, come on.
Ooh.
Oh, my.
What the heck happened to you?
Okay.
Let's take a look around,
shall we?
Jesus, Conny.
You really made a mess.
Well, looks like
someone had a party without us.
Oh, come on.
I would have been
here in a heartbeat.
They should have invited us.
This was like
a classic Stirling feast,
and we missed out on it.
Relax, Bill.
Look, bookshelf.
What the fuck?
Come look at this.
-Wait, that's...
-Bill and Judy.
The neighbors.
Baby, we really
need to get
the fuck out of here right now.
I'm not done here yet.
We need the money.
No, the money
is not gonna be worth it
if we don't get
the fuck out of here.
This is a lost cause.
Let's leave.
I can't risk losing you.
Can you risk losing me?
-No.
-Then let's go.
We'll lie low.
We'll find a job.
We'll-- we'll--
we'll make it work, all right?
Because, broke or not,
being together
is all that really matters
to me, okay?
I can't.
How soon before we run out
of money and we're caught?
This is our only way out.
This money changes everything.
Is it?
Is it even about
the money anymore?
Hmm, Orchid?
Look at this place.
Why the fuck are we here
in this sick, twisted house?
Don't you trust me?
There she is.
What are you two doing here?
I took care of
your pretty friend for you.
Barbara.
Ah, see? It all works out.
That's two.
Yeah, and your little butler's
seen better days, too.
He was there a second ago.
[Roy] You need to explain this.
I've never seen that before,
I swear.
Clearly, the Stirlings
are just a bit more
than former employees to you.
Tell me what's going on.
Now.
Look,
like everyone we go after,
we pick
people that deserve it, right?
Well...
The Stirlings took me in
when I had nowhere to go, okay?
They gave me a job
when I needed it most.
I-- I mean, it was...
it was a dream at first.
I was off the streets, and...
getting to live
this elegant life.
I mean-- I mean,
I still had to work, but...
just being able
to see a place like this
and over-the-top lifestyle
I'd never seen before.
It was surreal.
And then reality set in.
I started to see...
the dark side of the Stirlings.
Ethel was manipulative.
Couldn't really be
bothered to give me
the time of day, but Conrad...
Conrad was the worst of the two.
Yeah.
He abused me in so many ways.
He was like a shadow, like,
following me everywhere I went.
He was relentless.
I tried to tell Ethel.
It's okay. It's okay.
[Orchid sobbing]
Look. We got this.
We'll do this.
It's-- it's okay.
Conrad...
is gonna get
exactly what he deserves.
I'm gonna make sure of it, okay?
Don't worry.
-Okay?
-I love you.
Mitchell! Mitchell!
Oh!
No. No, no, no.
No!
No. No. No, no, no, no.
Come on.
Come on, baby. [sobbing]
Uh, Ethel, he's just hired help.
-You don't know the half of it.
-[Ethel] Oh, no.
He was-- I need him.
Don't fucking move!
Drop your weapons.
Our guests!
Shut the fuck up, old man.
A-and who might you be?
These are literally
the two people
we just met outside, Bill.
Yeah, I know, Judy. Jesus.
Shut up.
Or what, sweetheart?
[Judy] Jesus!
[Bill muttering in pain]
Now...
we've had enough
of this bullshit for one night.
You...
Take me to the safe.
[Ethel] It is you.
Oh. You came back.
I never thought
I'd see you again.
What on heaven's earth
are you talking about?
It's Orchid.
She-- she came back.
Yeah. Yes. Yes.
I mean, how could I forget?
You were always
Ethel's favorite.
How are you, sweetheart?
Oh, God, she's robbing you,
you drunk idiot.
Get up. We're going for a walk.
And if I say no?
I'll cut
your fucking fingers off.
You're familiar with that,
aren't you?
Let's go.
Stay here.
Keep an eye on that psycho.
Go. Move.
And you.
How might you know my Orchid?
I will happily expedite
this evening myself
if you don't shut the fuck up.
Calm down, son. Calm down.
No more talking.
Is that clear?
I-- is that a trick question?
Oh, God! Okay. Okay.
Oh, oh, God, that hurt.
Hey, can I ask you
something, Orchid?
Shoot.
Why on earth are you robbing us?
After all we've done for you?
That's why I'm here.
Everything you did to me.
Ethel has been dreaming about
seeing you again.
You just disappeared.
You broke her heart.
You know, you're the one orphan
that she really
treated differently.
And now you're here.
So put the gun down.
The safe.
We could have
a proper drink and catch up.
You're...
You might be
just what we're looking for.
Oh, yeah?
We can just laugh and catch up
about the good old times?
Well.
You and Ethel
will have nothing to laugh about
after tonight.
[laughs] Okay.
Sure, I'm no saint.
And Ethel, yeah,
she's become a bit more extreme
over the years.
And you know, we've grown apart.
Hell, I don't think
she's been faithful to me
for the 30 years
we've been married.
And Lord knows,
I've had my dalliances.
But look,
you don't need to do this.
Orchid, you're more like us
than you realize.
If you had come to us,
we could have talked
things through.
I mean,
this is a little extreme,
you gotta admit, even for you.
I've always loved you.
Always.
I think you should know that.
[breathing shakily]
That wasn't love.
You were always my favorite
of Ethel's little ones.
It's-- it's hard work,
isn't it, Orchid?
Yeah. It really is.
Tell Ms. Stirling
that I biked into town
and I got those fresh herbs
she was asking about.
Perfect.
Uh...
How was-- how was your...
[clears throat] ...ride?
Uh, fine.
Yeah, everything's fine.
Well, you're in great shape...
-[young Orchid chuckles]
-...Orchid.
Thanks.
Um, I-- I should get going.
I have plans in the city,
I'll be back on Sunday.
What are your big plans?
Got a hot date
with a virile young man?
Ah, you've
grown up so much.
You've, uh...
you've developed
into a fine young woman.
Um...
-I should-- I should go.
-Oh, yeah...
sweetheart.
Good night.
[Bill sucks teeth and groans]
Oh, yeah.
Well...
Cheers, fuckers.
So, Ethel...
What's with your boy toy?
Shut up, Bill.
You know, sweetie,
you don't have to do this.
Can the sweetie shit.
Okay?
It's too bad
your boy toy's done for.
I was hoping to kill him myself.
[snickering]
Shut the fuck up.
[Conrad] Say a word...
and it'll be your last breath.
I really enjoyed
having you around.
You're going to hell, Conrad.
I should've gotten rid
of you like the rest of them.
-Oh, you liked our adventures.
-[Orchid exclaims]
[both grunting]
[screams]
That...
is the only adventure
I'll ever enjoy with you.
Holy shit.
We're almost done here.
Deal with them.
No.
Conrad. [sobs]
Oh.
Oh, Conny.
He got what he deserved.
Where's the safe?
Get up!
Where's the safe?
[Ethel chuckles softly]
You know,
it really is incredible.
seeing the woman
you have blossomed into.
You don't need to do this.
No, I can make
all this go away. [laughs]
There's plenty of money,
trust me.
I can help you.
I came to you for help before.
I trusted you.
You didn't even give me
the time of day.
I need to talk to you.
It's, um, it's about Conrad.
What's the matter?
Um...
I don't...
I don't want to be near Conrad.
I can't be around Conrad.
And...
he...
-he, in the bedr--
-Look.
Orchid, I'm sure it was nothing.
You know, you...
you need to
learn to be an adult.
You can't let men
control your emotions like this.
Look at you. You're a mess.
-N-- no. No, but...
-Enough.
Orchid.
Now, Conrad can be unpleasant
sometimes,
but he is harmless.
So be a big girl.
And learn how to control men.
Better now than later.
Open the safe.
I never wanted you to leave.
I was heartbroken when you left.
But you're here now.
Open the safe.
I wish I never gave you up.
It's a mistake I've had to
live with my whole life.
You didn't give me up.
I left.
[button beeps]
So...
tell us, Roy.
How long have you and Little
Miss Sociopath been an item?
I bet once you get
those cheap clothes off of her
and clean her up,
she's got quite a figure.
-I can tell those things.
-[Judy] Bill.
You are such an asshole, Bill.
You always have been.
You were singing
a different tune last year
at the Stirlings' party.
I think we agreed that
whatever happens here,
stays here.
Hmm.
Roy...
Roy the boy toy.
You have any idea
who these people are?
Do you have any idea
how deep this thing goes?
You and your murderous minx.
You have no idea how deep
this twisted
little rabbit hole goes.
Bill.
Hmm. No, no, no, no.
I think this little shit
should know who he's robbing.
Do you have any idea
who the Stirlings are,
and who they're connected to?
That's enough, Bill.
The richer and older they are,
the more fucked up they are.
You should remember that, Roy.
You think you're in charge here.
You think you're going to
get away with this?
You have no idea, son.
None.
[Judy] Sit down, Bill.
Go to hell, Judy.
I knew this would happen.
Yeah, we never
should have started fucking.
Ethel was the best I ever had.
And I'm haunted with it
every night I lie besides you.
Look, I don't care
how many of you fucked
that crazy old hag, all right?
She dies tonight.
Along with the rest of you.
Twenty-one nine two...
Wait.
Wait, that's my...
that's my birthday.
Your birthday.
No. Oh, fuck.
It was a mistake.
I-- I never wanted
to be a mother.
I left your father,
I left the city, and I...
Is...
Is he...
Is that my-- is that my father?
-No.
-Oh.
Oh.
No, your father passed away
shortly after I left.
Married Conrad
a few years later.
Why didn't--
why didn't you tell me
when I came to work for you?
I was here.
I wanted to tell you.
I wanted to, I just...
The moment was never right,
and then you left
before I could.
I left because of Conrad.
There were...
Did he...
Did he do something to you?
Did he do something to me?
Yeah, Mom.
Yeah, he did something to me.
He did a lot of things to me.
You were supposed to protect me,
you were my mom.
And I'm so sorry.
I am so sorry, baby girl,
but I am here now.
It's all gonna be okay.
Hey.
You know,
I found your secret room.
Good.
People shouldn't do
those kind of things.
We do.
We do, look at you.
-You're just like me.
-Oh!
Everything's gonna be okay.
I'm sorry, Mom.
[Judy] Relax, Bill.
Of all the women
to be involved with,
of all the women
to be involved with
and I get stuck with you.
Bill, calm down.
Sit down,
I'm not gonna say it again.
Bill, you're
embarrassing yourself.
Sit down.
Oh, fuck you, fuck you,
fuck you.
[gunshot bangs]
I'm not a good person.
But I won't be like you.
We're gonna have
what we came for.
We're gonna
start a life together.
A real life.
[Orchid sobs]
