I would be lost without you.
- Our love is my light in the darkness.
- Oh! (Laughs) (Alexis) We have a special connection, Brian.
What if everything that's happened between us is a lot simpler than we thought? - What do you mean? - What if it's love? Is it too late to take you up on that drink? It's never too late for a drink.

Um, anyway, the reason I was calling So I reached out to a friend who works for the FBI.
Okay, he has access to to one of these computers that can crack codes.
Now if you wanted me to, I could send him the journal I actually, uh, I-I already figured it out.
Oh, you did? When did that happen? Uh, Harlan Moore gave me the code.
Harlan Moore? Uh, he's now living at the Drake under the name Patrick Corey, and he looks about 35 years old.
I know it sounds crazy, but it's definitely him.
Okay, l-l-let's come back to that one.
Yeah.
(Exhales) Um, what about the journal? Oh.
Well, I haven't translated all of it yet, but one word keeps coming up over and over again, though.
Um, conspiratii.
Conspiratii? Okay, never heard of it.
Uh, it's Romanian.
It means "conspiracy.
" Um, Peter Kramer was convinced the conspiratii were trying to kill him because of his dealings with the occult.
I googled it a couple times, found nothing, but What? (Sighs) I'm I didn't come here to talk about this stuff.
Whatever this is between us, Cooper, it has to end.
You know, I'm engaged to Henry now.
I'm hiding enough from him as it is.
I You know, I-I can't keep meeting you like this behind his back.
I'm sorry.
Right.
I get it.
Well, I'm gonna Yeah.

Thank you for believing me.

(Chuckles) Uh, Jane? I'm here if you need anything.
You know that, right? I know.
(Door opens, bell jingles) It's not here.
Keep looking.
(Front door unlocks) (Sighs (clicks switch) Oh, my God.
Hang up the phone, Ms.
Van Veen.
Where's the journal? (Gasps) W-what? Peter Kramer's journal.
Where is it? (Cocks gun) Uh Here.
Just take it and leave.
Okay? Apologies for the mess.

Just, uh, reorganizing stuff.
Sweetheart (Sighs) Do you remember how we said we were gonna keep the engagement our little secret for a few days? (Clears throat) You told Olivia.
It was an accident.
(Laughs) Henry, you managed to keep a secret for all of 11 hours.
Jane, she helped me pick out the ring, all right? She knew it was coming at some point.
And I've been smiling all day.
And what is she cooking up now that she knows? A little engagement party.
Henry, no.
I'm not gonna become one of those bridezillas - who throws a million parties for herself.
- You're not a bridezilla.
No party.
Okay? (Whispers) - Yeah.
- Thank you.
Hey, um (Clears throat) Are are you gonna tell your father? He doesn't want to be in my life, Henry.
Of course he does.
Okay, well, why haven't I heard from him since our dinner three years ago? (Exhales) Ow.
Mornin', doll.
You ready for round four? Oh, no.
Oh, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no.
What's eatin' ya? Was last night not fantastic? I'm married.
You said the old boy was stepping out on you.
It seems like your marriage is over.
Let go of me.
Have it your way, doll.
You'll be back.
(Door opens and closes) (Bell dings) Hey, Brian.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Not right now.
Louise didn't come home last night, a-and I don't know where she is.
I haven't seen her.
She did text me, though.
Huh? (Beep) She knows.
Yep.
I gotta find her.
I-I have to explain.
Explain what? That you fell out of love? That you're with me now? I'm not with you.
You were last night.
Last night I was mad at my wife, and it shouldn't have happened.
W-when are you gonna get it? Louise is no good for you.
She makes you miserable.
Look, I gotta know that she's okay.
If you see her, call me.
(Knock on door) (Jane) I need to talk to you.
Do come on in, doll.
(Closes door) (Sighs) What can I do for you? Two men broke into my apartment today and stole the journal.
I want it back.
What, you think I put them up to it? - Yeah.
(Clicks tongue) - Come now, Jane.
Why would I give you the code to the journal if I didn't want you to have it? Because you knew you were gonna steal it already.
Well, feel free to look around.
(Singsongy) It's not here.
Harlan, what's in that room? Nothing you need to know about.
(Glass clinks) Just a (Sets down glass) Small garden of medicinal plants.
Right.
Well, that is grounds for eviction, not to mention illegal.
Which is why I keep it locked, so Nosy Nellies don't get inside.
Well, thanks for your help.
Tell me, Jane, from what you translated in the journal, anything interesting? No, just that Peter Kramer was losing his mind.
No mention of the Conspiratii? Who who were they? Hard to say.
They're very old.
I know that.
Origins in 16th Vatican politics.
You know, they tried to destroy our Order of the Dragon in 1929.
Why did they want to do that? Mm.
Peace on earth, goodwill towards men.
You know, all that jazz.
Supposedly they have spies everywhere.
One of them could even be spying on you.
What You mean they still exist? Maybe.
Maybe not.
But if I were wondering who stole the journal, I'd ask myself the obvious question.
Well, other than me, who else knew you had it? (Door opens) I don't like people who trespass.
Who is he? My old friends.
The Conspiratii.
I want you to find them.
Get rid of him.
(The Symphonies' "That's What Love Will Do" playing) (Door bell jingles) I thought you said you didn't want to meet like this anymore.
Is that why two men broke into my apartment and stole the journal? What? Wait.
Who stole it? I don't know.
But it was right after I saw you yesterday.
You think I stole it? It wasn't Nona, it wasn't Harlan Moore, and you're the only other person who knows about it.
I didn't take the journal.
Just be honest with me, Cooper.
Who are you? You know who I am.
Now come on.
You're being a little paranoid.
Am I? Or have I finally figured out why you've been helping me this whole time? You're one of them.
I'm what? Who? The The Conspiratii? Jane, that's ridiculous.
Is it? I'm gonna go.
If someone broke into your apartment, I'll stop by later and make a report.
(Door bell jingles) (Door creaks) Can I help you, ma'am? Yes.
I'd like to see Detective Cooper, please.
There's no one here by that name.
What address are you looking for? Hayden Cooper.
I'd like to see him now.
I'm gonna ask you to leave.
Who are you people? What kind of company is Elysian Fields? (Telephone rings) (Ring) (Ring) (Hangs up receiver) Someone would like to see you.
Okay.
Who? Follow me, please.
Henry, you are wasting your breath.
The invitations are out, I already called the caterer and the florist and my favorite piano man.
This engagement party is happening.
I know.
Just Jane's not much of a party person.
Oh, I know that.
I knew she'd say no.
It was up to you to get her to say yes.
I tried, really.
I Mm.
Let me go back to the hoop on that one.
Thank you.
Oh, and there's, uh, there's someone I'd like to add to the list, if if it's okay with you.
Jane's father.
Oh, I-I thought you said he wasn't in her life anymore.
Well, I'm gonna try and fix that.
He lives in Pennsylvania.
Sure.
I'll make room for him.
Great.
Thank you.
Oh, and someone I know won't be making it Laurel Harris.
I got an e-mail.
She got a job in San Francisco and she's already gone.
I'll make a note.
All right.
Thank you.
(Pushes button) (Bell dings, door opens) (Door opens) Who are you? Cooper, what the hell is going on? I'll explain everything, I promise.
Look, I'm sorry about all this.
All they were supposed to do was get in and photograph the journal, not steal it.
What is this place? E-elysian fields? Well, we're Kind of like a private club.
The name's from Greek mythology.
The Elysian Fields were the home of those favored by the gods, those judged worthy to stand against darkness.
The Conspiratii.
Is that what this is? You are one of them.
We haven't used that name in over 50 years.
Eunice Moore? Nice to see you again, Jane.
W-wait.
I-I don't understand.
Is is Harlan a part of this? My great-grandfather, the abomination? He's a dangerous man, which is why we have to stop him.
You've been lying to me from the start.
Why should I trust you? Because if you don't, your fate is sealed.
You will die.
(Pills rattle) Lou? Where have you been? I've been worried out of my mind.
I've been with a friend downtown.
What's what's with the suitcase? Hey, hey, hey.
Talk to me.
Just let me go.
Look, I know I screwed up.
(Scoffs) No, what you screwed is my assistant.
And I wanna make it up to you.
Please, we can fix this.
(Whispers) I don't think we can.
Look, we just have to stop moving away from each other.
Lou, stay.
All right? We can fix this.
Brian, I-I want to, but how can I trust you after this? Just give me a chance to prove myself, okay? Found these tangled in the sheets this morning.
Is this the husband? Lucky man.
(Scoffs) You are unbelievable.
Brian, wait, wait, wait.
Brian.
Brian, wait! (Whispers) Oh, God.
Brian, please! (Door closes) Something I said? Sorry, buddy.
We don't work on German cars here.
Henry? Hey, Nate.
(Chuckles) It's been a while.
Oh! My God.
(Chuckles) Look at you, all grown up.
Where's Jane? Is she okay? Oh, she's fine.
She's fine.
She's She's great, actually.
Uh, it's kinda why I'm here.
Your daughter and I are engaged.
(Chuckles) (Laughs) Well Well, congratulations.
I'm happy for you.
Well, I know it's old-fashioned, but I was kind of hoping for your blessing.
A little late for that, ain't it? Well, I would've asked you sooner, but you're kind of hard to track down.
Fair enough.
Hey, uh, it's cold out here.
You wanna come inside? Yeah.
Well, we, uh, moved to New York at the end of last year, and it's it's been going really well.
That much was obvious when you pulled up in that car.
Oh, no, that's, uh, that's not mine.
I'm I borrowed it from a friend.
Yeah? Wow.
That's a generous friend.
Uh, well, he and his wife are throwing us an engagement party tomorrow night, and I know it would mean a lot to Jane if you showed up.
Yeah.
I don't think so.
I'm, uh I'm sorry.
I got, uh, I got stuff going on, you know.
She still loves you, Nate.
You're the only father she's got.
Why don't you want to be in her life? She deserves better than me.
She deserves everything, and that includes seeing her dad again.
You know how her mom died? Uh Jane told me it was some sort of accident, that she she drowned? It wasn't an accident.
It was my fault.
Catherine and I had argued, and I went out.
I took a walk to cool off.
And when I came back, I heard little Jane crying in her crib.
And I found Catherine underwater, in her bathtub.
The police said that somebody had broken into the apartment.
(Whispers) Nate, I'm sorry.
I never should've left her alone.
I never should've run out on her like that.
(Breathing heavily) I was a wreck after that.
I was in no shape to raise a kid.
I figured You know, Jane was better off if I stay away.
You know, let her try and live a normal life.
She looks just like her mother.
You know that? Spittin' image.
I'm glad she's marrying a good man.
You take good care of her, Henry.
You hear? I will.
Um Look, the details are in the invitation, in case you change your mind.
Give her my love, will ya? Yeah.
Thanks for the coffee.
(Door opens and closes) The Conspiratii began in 1542, when a group of cardinals plotted to overthrow the Pope.
They believed Satan himself had taken control of the papacy.
Eventually, the conspiracy was discovered, and the cardinals were executed before they could stop him.
But one priest escaped.
He reformed the group in secret, and since then, we have continued his mission.
(Teacup clatters) What is it that you want me to do? We need to know what Harlan is doing.
You're the manager.
Is there anything you can tell us? One of his bedrooms has a padlock on the door.
We need to know what's behind that door, Jane.
I'll see what I can find out.
(Sighs) (Door creaks) Hey, listen, um, sorry about lying to you.
We gonna be okay? We're fine.
I'm just a little, uh, a little embarrassed, you know.
I-I thought you were hanging around because Uh (Chuckles) I was just doing my job.
(Siren wailing in distance) Eunice answer your questions? Some.
Uh, she confirmed my suspicions about Harlan Moore.
He's definitely hiding something.
I'm gonna find out what.
The guy's a killer.
I want you to be careful.
Eunice said that you were sworn to protect me.
So what am I worried about? Just promise me you won't do anything stupid.
Scout's honor.
(Chuckles) (Chuckles) (Engine starts) (Bell dings) (Whistling) (Harlan continues whistling) (Clicks switch (door creaks) (Jane grunts) (Clank) (Clicks switch) (Camera shutter clicks) (Loud electric humming) Ow.
(Humming continues) (Gasps) (Humming continues) What did you find? This Detective Cooper he has been at the Drake three times in the last week, always to see Jane.
He's one of them.
The Conspiratii.
You want me to kill him? No.
I'll handle Detective Cooper myself.
I wanna go on the record as saying that I'm officially against this party.
Uh, noted.
But I wager that you will shed at least one or two tears by the end of the night.
They introduce us as Mr.
and Mrs.
Henry Martin, and I go to pieces? Could happen.
Mm.
(Chuckles) What? Did you go and see my father yesterday? Tony mentioned that you borrowed Gavin's car, and you were gone all day, it seemed.
Easy math.
Are you mad? (Whispers) No.
No, I'm not mad.
How was he? He was good.
I invited him to the party.
Uh He's not coming, is he? Jane, I-I didn't want you to be disappointed.
No.
No.
Why should he start being a father now? But you should've told me what you were doing.
I would've saved you the trouble.
I-I'm sorry.
I wanted to try.
I know.
It's why I love you.
(Chuckles) Now come on.
You ready to do this? Ready to celebrate spending the rest of my life with you? Uh (Groans) Let's go.
(Both lLaugh) (Cell phone vibrating) (Door opens) She's not answering her phone.
Wait a few minutes, try again.
Harlan Moore may be planning to kill Jane, just like he sacrificed Libby 90 years ago.
You don't know what Harlan is planning, not for sure.
Jane said her blood activated the mosaic.
I have to protect her.
If you go there, you're not coming back.
Cooper! (Door creaks) (Bell dings) (Indistinct conversations) - Gavin, thank you.
Thank you again.
- Congratulations.
- Mwah! Mwah! Hey, congrats.
- Thank you so much for this.
- Gavin.
Thank you for having us.
- Jane.
Mmm.
Oh.
(Laughs) Oh, guys, hi! - Thank you so much for coming.
- You look lovely.
Hey.
Hello.
Hi.
Good to see you.
(Laughs) Well, hello there, doll.
Mr.
Corey.
Uh, we weren't expecting you.
Pardon my, uh, impudence.
I wasn't invited.
But a shindig like this? I couldn't resist.
Well, um, we're happy you could make it.
You know, my own wife died 40 years ago.
Oh.
Uh Now there was a lady.
Not independent like you girls today.
She she knew her place.
(Indistinct conversations) (Olivia) Jane? Uh, sorry to steal the guest of honor.
(Clears throat) I need some Jane time.
(Chuckles) I am so thrilled for you and Henry.
Oh, every mother dreams of all the things she'll do with her daughter and celebrate, throw parties together.
I-I know we haven't known each other for a long time, but you and Henry mean so much to Gavin and me.
Olivia, thank you for for everything.
Oh.
(Chuckles) So are you happy? Well, I definitely think I'm gonna lose that wager.
(Laughs) (Kisses) May I cut in? (Voice breaks) Dad? (Labored breathing) Mm.
(Inhales deeply) (Exhales deeply) What the hell? (Clears throat) What's wrong with me? Louise.
Not feeling well? (Smack) Uhh! (Panting) Oh, my God.
(Slurring) What did you do to me? I just put a small dose of anesthetic in your water.
Hard not being in control of your own body, isn't it? What are you talking about? Remember you told me about that night when you were drunk and you ran over that dog, but you later realized it might've been a person? Mm! (Whimpers) (Crying) That was me.
I didn't know.
I didn't know.
Alexis, I didn't know.
I'm so sorry.
(Panting) No! Someone help me! Hey! She's trying to kill me! Stop! What are you doing?! (Brian and Alexis grunting) Let let go! (Knife clanks) Let go of me! I will kill you, too.
I swear.
Uhh! (Knife clanks) (Clatters) (Sobbing) Is she dead? (Sobbing) I think so.
Oh, my God.
I killed her.
Lou, we gotta calm down and think about our options here.
What options, Brian? I just killed my husband's mistress.
It was in self-defense.
God, I have a record Drugs, assault.
The police are never gonna believe me.
She attacked you with a knife! A knife from our kitchen! They're gonna think I invited her over and then attacked her.
What if they give me a drug test? We'll tell them that she drugged you.
This is payback.
This is karma in a big, bad, bitchy way.
What are you talking about? I I-I can't do this, Brian.
I can't do this.
There's gonna police and a trial.
No police.
No trial.
We deal with this ourselves, you and me.
We're gonna get rid of the body.
Jane? Jane? Hello, Detective Cooper.
I think it's time we talked.
Where's Jane? Celebrating her engagement.
It's time to put down the torch, don't you think? You're the one who's behind all this.
The Drake.
You have no idea.
(Gavin) You see, your people and I had an arrangement.
They don't interfere with the Drake, and I let them continue to exist.
(Silenced gunshots) Someone broke the deal.
Yeah, well, I don't play by those rules.
Stop acting like you're in some Western.
Put the gun down.
(Chambers bullet) (Loud electric humming) (Gun clatters) (Gasping and groaning) I never liked westerns.
You know why? The good guy always wins.
(Silenced gunshot) (Humming continues) (Strained voice) Jane Is not your concern.
(Silenced gunshot) (Clatters) Harlan Moore (Choking) Is dead.
For years.
No.
Here In the Drake.
(Humming subsides) (Whoosh) Ohh.
(Breathing heavily) Explain.
Patrick Corey not his real name.
Well, I do appreciate you telling me that.
It doesn't, however, change your fate.
Although I give you my word on one thing Jane will be protected.
You son of a (Whoosh) Aah! Uhh! (Gasping) Aah! Aah! No! No! No! No! No! (Inhales deeply) (Exhales deeply) I'm happy for you, kiddo.
Henry's a good man.
Thanks.
(Indistinct conversations) Dad, why did you come here tonight? I just wanted to see how you were doing.
I've seen you twice in ten years.
Henry said that you weren't coming, and th and then you just show up? You can be honest with me.
Okay.
(Breathes deeply) I, uh I saw the address on the invitation.
Of all the places to live in Manhattan, you wound up at the Drake.
(Lowered voice) I couldn't believe it.
I needed to warn you.
I've been here before, haven't I? When I was a child.
You were a baby.
We lived here you, me, and your mom.
Before she died.
I-I wish I could explain this more, Jane.
I can't.
All I know is that this place is evil, and you're in danger by being here.
How? Please.
Don't just come into my life and and turn everything upside down and not explain to me why.
You need to leave the Drake tonight.
No.
N-not until you tell me the truth.
Dad.
I'm sorry, Jane.
I can't.
Dad, please.
You shouldn't have come here.
(Unlocks door) (Clicks switch) I like what you've done with the place.
(Laughs) My God, Gavin.
What the hell are you doing here? You almost gave me a heart attack.
That must be quite a risk for a man your age.
You're, what 117 now? What are you doing in my building, Harlan? (Sets down glass) Just, uh Feeling nostalgic for the old days.
Though I have to say, you really let the Drake go.
Well, that's to be expected, I suppose.
Your generation never had any respect for the old gods.
Your old gods failed you, which is how I took the Drake from you in the first place.
Well, the tide is changing again, old boy.
I'm taking her off you hands.
Sorry if I'm not ready to step aside.
Let me help you.
(Whoosh) Oh, I've learned a few things since you stole the Drake from me.
I've been watching the way you operate, bargaining for souls like some sort of cheap sideshow magician.
It's embarrassing.
You're a disgrace to the legacy of the Drake.
(Olivia) Harlan.
Let him go.
(Box whooshing) Lovely Olivia.
To what do I owe the pleasure? Olivia, what are you doing? This is the heart of the Drake, the source of all its power.
Take it.
Just let Gavin go.
Set it down.
(Whooshing continues) Now let Gavin go.
All in due time, my dear.
(Opens latch) All in due time.
(Heart beating) (Whispers) It's beautiful.
(Grunts) (Screaming) (Sighs) Enjoy your new home, Harlan.
I missed your father before he left.
Uh, yeah.
I guess, uh, I guess he had a long ride home.
(Watch clatters) Was it good to see him? Yeah.
Jane.
(Breathes deeply) Are you okay? You know, Henry You're the one constant in my life.
You've always been there for me.
And I always will be.
Come on.
Get ready for bed.
Jane!
