Windfall s01e07 Episode Script

Changing Partners

Previously on Windfall.
I slept with someone at a seminar in Italy.
God.
I married someone I barely know.
- You lied to me about everything.
- No, not true.
You're married, Damien.
Go back home to your wife.
- I want a divorce.
- I'm on it, Damien.
- I'm going to buy it.
- You're going to run a restaurant? What do you think? Let's get out of here.
Let's go home.
Our real home? You better believe it.
The only time I feel okay is when I'm holding on to you.
Did you know that Zoe had a will? The money goes to her sister Tally.
It's your money, Sean.
You guys made a deal about the lottery money, and the least I can do is honor it.
Are you happy? I guess it's only a million less than I should have, but same with you.
So it's a secret that's only for you and me.
You must think I'm blind.
At least we're done pretending it's about some girl in Italy.
Do you throw a marriage away after one mistake? I don't know.
Hi, this is Cameron.
Leave a message.
- What do I push? - Press the five.
My old cell phone was so much more easy.
- Yeah, but this one's better.
- Hey, look at you and the gadgets.
It's me.
Um I'm stopping by the house later to pick up some things.
I'd appreciate it if you could be somewhere else.
Peter, look at me signing a contract, a business contract.
Okay, last one.
This one basically says how big a share you just bought in the company with your investment.
Well, it seems like a lot to pay for only 12%, but okay! Congratulations.
- You are now a partner.
- Thank you.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
Hey.
What's so important you can't shake your new partner's hand? I just got an e-mail from a friend on the bike racing circuit.
Colin Evett dropped his sponsor.
Are you serious? What's his ranking now? Oh, he's, you know, competing at a World Cup level.
Domestically, he's in the top ten.
If we even had a chance at signing him Where is he? He trains in Belgium.
Danielle, get on the phone, check out flights to Brussels.
Of course, I'm on it.
What are you gonna need to pitch him? I don't know.
He's done this before.
He's gonna want a full presentation, you know, business plan Where's that slide show we put together? Can we really do? We're also gonna have to pack up a laptop.
Do you know where you keep the projector? Are you guys talking about today? 'Cause I can't do this.
I'm not ready, I'm not packed.
You want to get scooped by Bianchi because you don't have spare underwear? Buy some clothes when you get there.
He's right, Peter.
We sign Colin, we'd be set.
Okay.
All right.
Uh you know what? Give me the plans for the touring bike.
We don't want him to think we're some one-trick starp-- and I'm gonna need artwork and specs on all our bikes.
Brought you an office warming gift from me and the girls.
What's going on? Sunny.
What are you doing here? She was an assistant here.
I mean, like me, she doesn't want to see everyone lose their jobs.
And you think that's the only reason she invested? Whats that supposed to mean? Peter, she gave your name at the hospital when she got shot, like you were her imaginary boyfriend or something.
Nina You know, it's bad enough that that woman's investing the money that she stole from everyone as if it were hers.
I know that we need to talk about this, okay? I do.
But I have to go.
I got an idea; why don't you come with me? - To Belgium? - Mm-hmm.
- Today? - Why not? We'll stay at a great hotel.
Okay? Look, we'll eat, we'll eat gourmet food.
Huh? I don't know.
Nina, I need your support, okay? With the pitch, everything, I just What better place for us to figure everything out? I'm sorry, I just It's too much, you know, on too short notice for me or the girls.
I just can't.
Can't believe you got all this stuff.
Well, it's rich people food.
Come on, we're gonna be millionaires once the will's settled.
We want to try and make something good of this money, right? Well, feeling bad about it doesn't seem to be helping anybody, that's for sure.
Um, here, I got this for you.
A newspaper? We have to pick out a new car for you.
Or did you think you'd buy back your old truck? No, actually, I was thinking of maybe getting a motorcycle.
They're dangerous.
Get hurt, and I'll punch you.
Did you hear that? It sounded like the door.
Sean, what the hell just happened? You heard the door close.
Somebody was in the apartment.
The whole time that we were No.
Maybe it was just a draft or we didn't close the door all the way.
No, I don't think so.
Neither do you.
It's me.
Um I'm stopping by the house later to pick up some things.
I'd appreciate it if you could be somewhere else.
On my way to the airport.
You don't happen to know any Belgian phrases, would you? - Got any last-minute advice? - Oh, you're gonna do great.
- You okay? - Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.
- What's going on? - Nothing.
Come on, get into it.
Beth walked out on me last night.
I think for good.
How's that for a pep talk? Is Is there anything that I can do? Yeah, yeah.
- Go sign Colin Evett.
- No, no, I Hey, come on, we're good.
Really, I'm fine.
Go.
Frankie.
Hi.
What are you, what are you doing here? I thought you were in New York.
I am.
We are.
Um I'm just home with my mom because she's putting the house on the market.
Right.
We need packing tape.
Oh, well, let me help you find some.
No, that's okay.
You know, I left my wallet back home anyway.
Well, I've got money.
I know, Damien.
Who could forget that? Frankie, wait! Wait, stop.
I screwed up.
You told me that.
No, in New York, I know.
But I screwed up here, right here.
This is where we met.
Or at least talked the first time.
And it was so stupid, but it was so, it was so great.
I should've just married you.
What?! Instead of Galina.
She was in the car that day, waiting for me.
We were on our way to Florida, so I could collect the money.
We just met.
- Yeah, same with me and Galina.
- Okay, know what? You might want to stop saying her name.
Right, sorry.
I'm I'll stop.
Doesn't it seem like fate or something that we're here again? You don't trust me, I know.
But can't you trust that? I don't know.
Okay, give me one chance, one date.
Okay? If you can't stand being around me after that, go back to New York, and I'll never bother you again.
Probably.
I'll try not to.
Okay.
Okay.
I don't even know-- what do they speak, Belgian? Belgian is not a language.
Your limo is waiting for you downstairs and, remember, I put the remote in the side pocket here.
You know, this isn't going to go well.
I goto run this PowerPoint thing-- I cannot understand the language that I'm not going to be speaking.
- Then take me.
- What? Yeah, I'll come with you.
When I was Barry's secretary, I traveled with him on all his marketing trips; I pretty much did everything for him.
Peter, I can really help you.
And, remember, I want this trip to work just as much as you do.
- I don't know, Sunny.
- Is it because of Nina? Of course not, I Look, it's not that I It's not that I think that you can't do it on your own, because I think that you can do anything.
But if there's any support that I can give you, anything that you need.
You're right.
Yeah, you you should come.
Well I'll call the airline from the car.
I just need a nanny a few hours a week.
You know, to let me do some errands, and maybe a few things with my husband.
How much? Uh You're the agency, you tell me.
I got to call you back.
- Mommy! - What happened? Violet? We were playing.
And I fell.
Okay, well, let me see, sweetie.
Oh, God Okay, both of you, listen to me.
We're going to take a ride in the car right now, okay? And I need your best behavior, do you understand? Mm-hmm.
Okay, sweetie.
Okay, hold it tight.
Come on, Daisy.
Nina, I'm sorry, you know he's leaving for Brussels today.
Yeah, I know that, Danielle, I'm asking has he already taken off? He was supposed to get on his plane half an hour ago.
Do you want me to try his cell just in case? No, I already did that.
Look, can you just give me a minute, I have to talk to a nurse.
Excuse me, I need someone to look at my daughter.
She cut her head very badly.
Ma'am, can you register her, please? What's going on? It's Nina.
She's at the hospital.
One of the girls got hurt.
Hand me the phone.
Let me talk to her.
Nina? It's Cameron.
What's happening? Can't I just register later? I really need someone to look at her right now.
It won't stop bleeding.
If I can just see a doctor.
- Nina, can you hear me? - Mommy, I don't like this! Nina? Nina? Look, ma'am, I'm sorry, but you'll have to wait.
If she calls back, tell her I'm on my way.
The in-room treatments for clients who appreciate privacy-- VIPs and the like-- are just as good as the hotel's spa.
Now, for a full-body replenishment, our clients swear by the thermal body wrap of imported Austrian moor mud and silky Ukrainian wheat stalks.
Well, I've got nowhere to go and money to burn, so just give me anything you have that'll make me feel like a new person whose husband doesn't cheat.
Colin, thanks for meeting with us today, I think you're really going to like our bikes.
You see here that we molded our carbon fiber components.
Cuts down the weight of the stems and stays by 300 grams.
We've been looking for somebody smaller to partner with.
A nimbler company.
More flexible.
We were thinking that maybe we could get pictures of you guys training for Flanders on our bikes, and, you know, let the press know that you're thinking about switching Yeah, we're not in the Tour of Flanders.
We withdrew.
You pulled out of Flanders.
Why? Colin's exhausted.
He did France, Benelux and Lombardia with hardly a break in between.
He's got tendonitis, might need a procedure.
Right.
Well This, uh this may not be the best time to make a deal.
Thank you for seeing me, though.
And, Colin it was an honor to meet you.
I wish the best of luck with your season.
What the hell just happened? I thought we almost had them.
Colin.
He's doping.
Taking some kind of performance-enhancing drug.
I don't understand.
How does skipping a race tell you that? His body needs time to process the chemical.
Otherwise, he'll test positive next time they look at his blood.
You don't pull out of a race like Flanders, especially with the kind of streak he's been on.
I'll tell you something: he didn't dump his sponsor, they dumped him.
Okay, well, you know what? If you can figure that out, then so will the other sponsors, and no one will want to sign with him.
That means we can go back in there and make whatever deal we want.
- Yeah, with a racer that does drugs? - With a racer who's winning.
Peter, you said it yourself-- doping happens all the time.
So? So, did you start this business to make money or to clean up the sport of bike racing? It's not right, Sunny.
Well, neither is letting this company fail, okay? And you and I are not the only ones who will lose, if that happens.
Wow.
Yeah, no kidding.
Well, I meant that was fast.
Oh, right.
Come in.
Uh, the concierge saw you coming through the lobby, I told him to give me a heads-up.
There's Wow, there's, um there's a lot of food here.
I wasn't sure what you'd like.
Are Are we just going to stay here? Oh, no, no.
I have this, like, whole thing planned.
Um, I just got this in case you were hungry.
I actually got us dinner reservations at this great Japanese place downtown.
And it's right next to auditorium, which is good 'cause I got us front-row tickets to this concert.
- You like The Rapture, right? - Um, yeah.
Yeah.
I was thinking maybe we could swing by the park, hit the rowboats.
Unless you think that's corny, 'cause That's kind of corny, right? No, it's great.
It's sweet, it's - A lot, right? - Uh It's too much? What's wrong? Nothing.
I'm just That's her room, right? Um Galina's? It's mine.
It's part of mine.
But that's where she was staying? Yeah, I just, you know, totally forgot to cancel it, or close it.
Whatever.
Oh.
Okay.
Um, Frankie She's totally out of my life.
I know.
But You're gonna see her again.
I mean, you have to, you're married to her.
I can't help wondering if what happened in there or there won't happen again.
Do you have to wrap her up? Mommy, I can't move.
I don't like this! Excuse me, but do you really have to do that? She's a good girl, she'll hold still, if you just ask her.
Ma'am, I'm sorry, we have to.
If she moves while the doctor is suturing, we'll be here all day.
Mommy! Well, how long is she going to have to stay like this? I mean, we've been here for over an hour.
Any minute, ma'am.
Please be patient-- we're a little bit overrun today.
Let me down.
I want to get down.
Daisy, enough! I'm sorry, sweetie, I just need you stay still for mommy, okay? Just stay still.
Hey, hi, girls, Oh, Violet, look at you.
Let me see, let me see.
Wow, that's a real klonker, huh? Yeah, you're going to be just fine.
Okay? Daisy.
Come on, get over here.
You have to give Uncle Cameron a hug.
Don't hold out on me.
That a girl.
Okay, you think you could do something for me? You think you could draw a picture for your sister to make her feel better? - Okay! - Okay.
Here you go.
Which pen do you want? Thank you.
Yeah, I just got whatever I could from the office.
They've been keeping us waiting forever, Cameron.
Okay, okay.
What's going on here? They're short-handed, and it's their way of keeping her still for the stitches-- if they ever get around to doing them.
Mommy, can't you please let me out? Please? Can you hang on just another second, sweetie? Just another second.
You know what, this is crazy.
Cameron Excuse me, Doctor.
Doctor? Yeah, I can see you're busy, but there's a little girl here, she really needs to be seen.
Please, could you help us? - This is Dr.
Karogozian.
- Hi, sorry about the delay.
Okay, let's do this.
I need a suture kit.
You want me to take her out of here? - No, could you please stay? - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Daisy? Let me see, let me see.
What have you got there? Okay, sweetheart? Two-tailed tiger? Wow.
Think we can do another one? Let's do another one, okay? Cameron? Thank you.
Why do you need a divorce if marriage is phoney-baloney? Because I Wait.
Where did you learn that phrase? My cousin Razmik.
He is not real cousin.
He is cousin of my cousin, and he knows a lot of American things.
I sleep on his couch.
So, you, uh you got yourself settled Is okay, is good.
Is not same, but better life than home.
Damien, if you divorce me, I must leave country.
Well, I mean, for now, I I enter country illegally through Canada.
I can never come back.
Be my husband.
Two years.
All you have to do is nothing to give me new life.
And the money? I will pay you back, all of it-- over over time.
Damien, please? I don't care about the money, okay? All I want is my freedom.
America.
Land of free.
You see, we're the same.
What the hell? You having me followed now? That's okay, honey.
We'll take it from here.
What were you doing in Zoe's apartment? I haven't been in Zoe'apartment since she went missing.
More to the point, what were you doing there? Come on, sit down.
Really? Oh, you didn't send someone to break in, huh? I don't know what you're talking about.
No, no.
Searching for what? Maybe, uh, papers Zoe signed, maybe her signature, maybe something to make up that phony document about our deal? We don't need the document anymore.
Tally's giving you the money.
And you're giving half to me or going to jail.
You understand that, right? Yeah, yeah, I got that.
So what's the problem? She's still giving you the money, isn't she? You didn't get so close to her, she got sick of you now? No, it's all working out.
The only person feeling sick about it is me.
I got to tell you.
Lot of people worried what this town'd be like packed full of new millionaires.
Mmm.
It's better.
Maggie, my divorce attorney, Rodney Calhoun.
- Hi.
My restaurant.
- Nice.
- I hope you love it.
- Thanks.
So tell me, what happens to me if I divorce Galina? Well, odds are you'll lose control of your winnings.
Your parents have already petitioned the court to overturn your emancipated status and put your money in a trust.
They did? When? Shortly after Galina was charged as an accomplice to murder.
- She was totally innocent.
- You said she was a thief.
She's more of a a scavenger.
Look, it doesn't matter what she did.
It's not my fault.
I barely knew her when we got married.
Damien, your parents argue the marriage was a fraud, and the money's a corrupting influence.
You can maybe see their point? What about Galina? If we divorce, will she get deported? She could get a job.
If her employer swore that only she had the skills needed.
Maybe you are worth $400 an hour.
Hey.
You're still here.
Want to take a spin? No.
Actually, I wanted to talk to you alone.
I don't think your manager would like what I have to say.
Then I probably won't, either.
Look, if you could just give me two minutes of your time, and if you don't think that what I'm saying's in your best interest, then I'm gone.
Colin, I want to do business with you.
But you got to be able to assure me that you're not doing drugs.
- I don't need this.
- You know what? I I kind of think that you do, you know, because those sponsors Look, they're gonna figure it out, just like we did.
Nobody's gonna want to take a chance on a doper, and those that do-- they They're gonna expect you to win.
In return for the risk that they are taking, you are gonna have to keep doping.
Eventually you'll get caught.
Most people do.
And when that happens, this all goes away: Sponsorship, money, fans your name.
I still haven't heard what you're offering, besides this lecture that I don't need.
Come race with me clean.
You can lose a few.
I won't mind.
'Cause I'll be in business with a guy who's helping to clean up this sport.
And I believe you'll win.
Here you go, sweetie.
Okay.
Cameron, thank you.
How they doing? They didn't even wake up when I put their pajamas on.
Hope you don't mind me digging around the kitchen.
Wasn't sure what you needed.
You're really good with those girls.
Are you kidding? You were great.
I bet it's from being the oldest in your family, right? Oldest of five maniacs.
I remember when you used to run around with your brothers and sisters, playing staircase toboggan.
Yep.
That's why I'm so good in emergency rooms.
All those crazy games you used to make up.
What? I remember you, too.
Oh God, I hope not.
All I did was fight with my sisters.
No, not like that.
Just your face.
Like when you were laughing just now.
It was like I was seeing you at 17.
- Simpler times, right? - Yeah.
God, I have to call to Peter.
I I still haven't gotten through to him yet.
He should be in his room by now.
Yeah, I better get going anyway.
Right.
Beth's probably wondering where you are.
Yeah.
So? Did they call? Have you heard anything yet? Well, they sent this.
"Please forward all contracts and related paperwork over to us for legal review.
Congratulations from all of us.
We look forward to working with you.
" Oh, my God.
You did it! We have to celebrate! Sunny, we both did it.
There's no way that I would have gone back over there without you talking me into it.
I've never seen you like you were today.
Bossy? Demanding? No, no, no.
Uh gutsy.
You know, strategic.
Very businesslike.
Hmm.
Well I had to quit high school to work to support my mom and my grandmother.
I was planning on going to business school, you know? Be Martha Stewart or something.
Anyway To us and this company.
- I'll drink to that.
- Okay.
I just I just can't believe this! I mean, we flew to Europe to make a deal, and we nailed it! We nailed it.
- Sunny Whoa.
Whoa.
- Oh, my God.
I'm sorry.
I'm such a klutz.
That's okay.
Don't worry about it.
No, no.
Um, here I can get it.
I'm so sorry.
Oh.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Hello.
Nina, hi.
Hey Is she okay? N uh Are you okay? Yeah.
You know, um, I was in a meeting.
I had my phone turned off, but, uh, I'm back in the room now.
Well, are you sure? Okay, then, you know what? Can, uh can I call you back? Okay.
All right.
Is everything okay? Yeah, my daughter Violet-- she fell and, uh, she had to get a few stitches, but she's-she's gonna be okay.
I feel like I should take that earlier flight back, though.
I'll, uh I'll see you at home.
Your wife doesn't know I'm here, does she? I mean, that's why you lied to her.
There just wasn't time before we took off.
But she's not going to be very happy when she finds out.
That's not true.
She's just, uh - Jealous? - Uh It's fine.
I understand.
I would be, too.
Thank you for everything.
I'll see you back home.
Got to go.
Oh I'm sorry.
I thought you said in your message you were going to come earlier.
I did.
I wanted to see you.
I spent the whole day at the hotel trying to wash away what happened, but I don't think I can without knowing the truth.
The whole truth, not just what I've assumed.
I need to know if you've been with her.
I'm asking did you sleep with Nina? No.
Kiss her? Hold her hand? Tell her you love her? Cameron, don't make me go go down a list.
No.
No.
No.
'Cause even if you did, you can't tell me she didn't invite it somehow.
She didn't, Beth.
We didn't.
Then how could you let me go? Beth, you were so angry I know you had a right to be No.
But I can't help but wonder where this is coming from.
What do you mean? I have a right to know.
Oh, God.
You're wondering if I'm pregnant.
Yes.
Yes, of course I am.
It was the right time.
It couldn't have been a worse time.
And you warned me.
You knew even then.
I'm not pregnant.
Are you sure? Cameron, you don't need to worry.
I'm sorry.
Are you? Beth, I want you to have every happiness.
Except the happiness I had being married to you.
That's not an option anymore, is it? Not right now.
I think we should stop.
It's a nice spot.
Yeah.
Whats the plan? Are we gonna bungee jump? I'm gonna do it.
I'm gonna divorce Galina.
Okay Wow.
Why? So I can be with you without freaking you out.
So I can live my life without freaking out about being tied, legally, to someone I'm not sure I know.
But your money So how are you going to live? I'll get by.
But that hotel costs a fortune.
You're going home.
I can't ask you to do this.
You didn't.
You didn't.
Wait, but if you're broke and I'm in New York, how are we gonna see each other? I'll hitchhike, I'll hop a train, I'll do whatever it takes.
No.
I'll find my way back here.
I don't I don't want you living on a plane.
I won't.
I'll be back to stay.
Tally, did you finish going over Zoe's will with Park? - Sean? - We have to talk.
What's going on? That lawyer, Park, didn't just set up the offshore accounts for Zoe, okay? He's the guy that bought off the witnesses and got me off the murder charge.
Yeah, I figured that.
Zoe thought it would get rid of Jeremy-- he was blackmailing me.
But all it did was give Park the same power, only he's worse.
I don't understand-- he was threatening you? The witnesses could recant their stories.
I'd go to jail.
But wouldn't he, for perjury or something? Look, I've been around this whole blackmailing track before, okay? What I would risk, what they would risk-- but what I will not risk is you.
What are you saying? I'm saying you shouldn't be around me anymore.
I think that's my decision to make.
I'm not gonna give you the chance to make the wrong one.
I'm leaving.
I'm not coming back.
What about the money? It's almost $20 million.
If you want to give me some, fine, okay, great, I could use it, but don't do it thinking we have any kind of future, because we don't.
Well, you're not gone yet, right? Yeah? Then do one last thing for me.
So, um, I feel like I owe you for everything you've done for me.
Even though I'm kinda undoing it all now.
Damien, please don't divorce I think I found a way for you to stay in the country.
Okay.
Um all you need is a job, and I got you one, at Maggie's restaurant.
Maggie? Who is Maggie? She's one of the lottery winners.
You you met her at all those house parties.
Um have you ever have you ever waitressed? Uh, many times.
Okay, so you'll, um, you'll get the paperwork and if the INS comes around, all you need to prove is that you have a special talent, something that no American she could have hired could do.
Besides marrying for money.
Marrying for money it's its own skill.
Mommy, Daddy's home! Oh How are you? - Daddy, I fell.
- I know.
And I got stitches.
They're disgusting.
- Sounds cool.
- Want to see them? Sure.
When we change your bandage, okay? Daisy did a drawing-- I'll show you.
Okay, go on up.
You know what? Walk, okay? I'll be right up.
Hey.
Hey.
You okay? What? I barely recognize you.
Look at you.
So polished.
Accomplished.
Which I know you are because I called the office and they told me the news.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, congratulations.
Mm, I'll tell you, signing Evett was such a it was a coup.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
Yeah, it was, but I I feel really bad that I wasn't here.
You know, I'm sorry you had to go through that alone.
I wasn't alone.
I, um, Cameron Cameron overheard when I was talking to Danielle and came down to help.
- Oh, that's great.
- Yeah.
Yeah, um Listen, by the way, I, um, kind of needed some help, too.
I didn't say anything about it earlier, but, Sunny came to Belgium.
Oh.
Okay.
That's it? Well, you needed a hand, and I couldn't be there, so What did Cameron say about Beth? Was he upset? Upset upset about what? He didn't tell you she left him? Wow.
Mm.
You know, the's just so much going on with the girls, I guess it just didn't come up.
- Hey, Cameron.
Hi.
- Hi.
Hi.
No Beth tonight? Uh, no.
No, not tonight.
But the place is great.
- Thank you.
- Yeah.
And I don't know what this is, but I love it.
- Good.
Enjoy.
- Thanks.
And tell Beth I said hello.
So I just sign these papers and you release Zoe's funds? Your funds, Miss Reida.
I just need you to review the executor fees, billable hours, and the withdrawals taken out of the account.
