Windfall s01e13 Episode Script

Priceless

Previously on Windfall: Fourth floor? Yeah.
How'd you know? It's Your hotel.
Right? In the will.
£¿£¿Right.
It's your baby.
The Chinese government prefers to place our children with married persons.
You have to prove that you can provide a stable, loving environment by yourself.
( whispering ): I lied about the lottery ticket.
I said Kimberly's ticket was mine when it wasn't.
If you want somebody to trust you, don't start by telling them a lie.
I at least deserve a chance to make you believe in me.
Receipts.
For the donations I made to three charities yesterday.
All I have left now is what I have with you.
Peter, I'm so sorry.
I do love you.
And I love this family.
And don't we owe it to them? See if we can fix this? You owe me nearly five million.
Get out.
Not until I get my cut.
Hey, police! No! ( heart monitor beeping ) You have the right to remain silent.
Anything can and will be used against you in a court of law.
One second I'm begging a guard for antibiotics and the next we're just walking out of here.
You must be a very good lawyer.
I wish I could take the credit.
I told you they got 48 hours to charge you and let you go.
With Tally telling everybody I killed Zoe, I figured I was fried.
Yeah, well, they've got other evidence, and it's way more damning.
Wait.
Evidence against who? DAVE: Look, I wish I'd been around to help.
Like I said, I got busy.
What the hell is this? ld be your office, Dave.
-What's going on -David Park? Yeah.
We'd like to ask you some questions down at the precinct in connection with the death of Zoe Reida.
Here you go.
You gotta be kidding me.
Zoe's money in his office? Yeah.
There was some kind of leak.
Plumbing.
Not a tip.
And if you have any idea how that money got there, -now is not the time to discuss it.
-Falsone.
You know, it's funny how things work out.
And you say Tally did it.
She says you did it.
If you have something to say to my client, say it to me.
KATE: Come on.
This isn't over.
KIMBERLY:Come on, baby! Hey, how are the party plans coming? Oh, good, good.
Um, you know, I said to Ethan, "Picture-perfect birthday.
"If you can have whatever you want, UMPIRE: Foul ball! what would it be?" And, um, he said, "I want my dad.
" Ooh.
KIMBERLY: Poor Ethan.
I, uh, I didn't think he was in your life.
Well, he hasn't been for a long time, but turns out Ethan has been e-mailing him for weeks ever since I got him his own computer.
( cell phone ringing ) Whoo-hoo! ( ringing continues ) Oh, my God.
Let's go! Oh, my God.
What's wrong? Oh, my God, Kimberly, it's a text from the adoption agency.
Okay.
Am I reading it right? "Congratulations.
"Your daughter is available for your adoption.
" "Pack your bags for China ASAP.
" You read it right, Beth.
UMPIRE: Strike three.
You're out! Whoa, oh, yes! BETH: Ye-Ye He's really late, huh? We've got the hour.
We can wait.
Sorry I'm late.
This is my husband.
Jack Singerman.
Peter Schaeffer.
Have a seat.
So, I should tell you that a basic tenet of marriage counseling is that when there are children involved, we like to keep the family together.
But in my experience, couples come to counseling wanting one of two things: to make it work or to get out.
And it becomes clear pretty quickly.
Peter, why don't you start? ( school bell rings ) All right, all right, all right, all right.
I'll see you I'll see you guys later.
STUDENT: Hey, man, isn't that your wife? Is that, uh the paternity test? I didn't realize we'd get the results so soon.
I thought you were going to call me.
I think better not to use the phone.
Better do this in your face.
Wow, I guess this is it.
Okay, I'm ready.
What's it say? I don't know.
I do not open it.
I don't understand why.
DAMIEN: Is that Razmik? What's he doing here? I come to say good-bye, Damien.
Razmik propose to me.
He divorce American wife.
No, wait a minute, I He needs her to stay in the country.
No.
We're going back to Russia to raise my child.
to be with family.
But you said he's not the father.
Is not.
Razmik know this.
But he say there, we can be family.
You know, everyone be happy.
Is good, no? Here.
Open or not open is up to you.
I think maybe is better you don't know.
Have fun with Frankie.
Be young.
Trust me:is all over too soon.
Hey, thanks for waiting for me.
You sure you don't want any coffee? I'm okay.
How are you? I mean, how's that how's that bike factory doing? Is everything okay? No.
That-that's not important.
Of course it is.
I was late because this morning when I told Violet that you were taking her out of piano lesson, she had a complete meltdown.
She's angry.
She blamed you bause you're you're the one who's not in the house right now.
I'm just saying we got a lot of work to do.
I'll, I'll do anything.
I will.
I wasn't late today to jerk you around.
To punish you.
Look, I wouldn't be here if I didn't if I hadn't always wanted you ever since high school even when you were with Cameron.
I hate being here 20 years later feeling like you're still his.
I'm my own person, Peter.
And I'm choosing to be with you again if you'll have me if you're willing to try? Okay.
I'll try.
Thank you Michael.
How long have you worked here? Good to see you, too, Kimberly.
Six weeks.
Still just part-time.
Just filling in when they need me.
Well, were you gonna tell us? This is, like, ten minutes from our house.
Last time I saw you, you and the judge made it real clear: Stay away from Ethan.
Come on, Michael, you know that was just about getting child support.
What about now? Hmm? After you won all that money, did you even think to pick up the phone and say, "Come on by.
"I don't need to punish you anymore.
Come see your son.
" I didn't know where you were.
Did you look? Look, Michael, just If you're going to be in Ethan's life, I'm going to need you to follow some ground rules, all right? Be consistent.
Don't be there and then suddenly not be.
You know what? I've heard all this before.
Wait, Michael.
I'm not trying to Listen, just come to Ethan's birthday party, okay? He really wants you there.
And I'll, I'll, e-mail you the details.
You know what, don't bother.
You got me all figured out.
I'll just let him down again, right? Michael! SUNNY: Hey, Peter, about the race, Colin's trailing, so I'm going to France, and I thought you should, too.
Well, I've got my own battles to fight right here.
The board? Yeah.
When the race is done.
It looks like so are we.
We'll just start another company.
Sunny, I'm working on my marriage.
Huh.
Okay.
Wait.
I just didn't want you to think that what happened between us was just Sex.
Really nice sex.
Or a surprise.
'Cause I thought about it.
I thought about you for a long time.
You know, that one night cost me $19 million.
Are you sorry you gave it back? I did it because I wanted you to respect me.
Maybe even think of me as the kind of person you'd like to be with.
All things being different did I at least accomplish that? Yeah.
Then it was worth it.
DAMIEN: So of course, I opened it.
I mean, what kind of guy sits there and doesn't open the envelope? You think I shouldn't have opened it, don't you? I'm not saying that.
She wants to raise my kid, Frankie.
My kid, in Russia.
That's, like, far, far away.
They've got nuclear fallout, a bad mafia, apparently no regulations on what cousins can or can't do with each other.
I'm gonna ask her to stay and raise my child here.
You think I'm making a mistake.
No.
I don't.
You know what? Just just say it.
You want me to let her go.
Damien, I don't know what I want, okay? I'm just scared my mom, who's getting here any minute, will change her mind about moving back.
You have no idea how hard it was to convince her to leave New York.
Maybe I should just let Galina leave, raise my kid there.
Don't do that for me.
You need to do the right thing for you, whatever that is.
Hey.
Hey.
Um, there's some chili on the stove and a lot more in the freezer.
I made that lemon chicken that you like.
Maybe for dinner, or well, it'll all keep.
Looks to me like we have enough for a few weeks.
Um, thanks for letting me spend time with the girls here, but I should go.
No, you know what, Nina? Stay.
Hang out for a little while.
I really want to, but the therapist said it was fine for us to take turns with the girls at the house, but all of us being here together, right now, could confuse them.
Yeah, well, um how 'bout tonight, after therapy? We still have the sitter, we could, uh, go grab a bite, someplace nice.
Okay, sure.
Oh, I almost forgot.
A courier brought this.
It's from Cameron.
It says he's signing over all his shares in the company to me.
Wow.
Everything? ah.
I guess, uh, guilt is a great motivator.
ADDIE: Just to be clear, Damien's green-card- Russian-ex-wife is pregnant with their now bastard unborn child who he thinks it would be a good idea to be a teenage father to, and he wants your blessing in all of this? Mom, you're making it sound much worse than it is.
Okay, well then why don't you tell me how to make that sound better.
Thank God I'm back here is all I can say.
Oh, this must be from the realtor.
She's showing us houses tomorrow.
You might want to come along.
( gasps ): Oh.
What? Nothing.
What is it, Mom? It's from your father.
Did you guys make up? "You took everything from me, and treated me like" Like what? He doesn't finish.
Frankie, don't Oh, my God.
Yes, yes.
It's a lovely box of dog poo.
What? Mom, that is so creepy.
Frankie, your father is a very unstable man.
I don't want you to go anywhere near him, do you understand me? ( knocking ) Sean, it's Tally.
Oh, my God.
Does it hurt? Yeah.
Bullets make a hole in your body on their way to killing you.
Maybe you didn't know that.
Maybe that's why you left me lying in my own blood.
Sean, I got scared.
Yeah, it's scary watching somebody maybe die, isn't it? But you already knew that.
I knew that that guy the motel manager was calling the cops and that they'd get you to a hospital.
Yeah, and then straight to jail.
Yeah, but you got away.
Where'd you go? No, Tally, no.
Where did you go? Where did you go with the money that somehow ended up in Dave Park's office? I had to be free to help you.
To help us.
So, by what? By framing Park for a murder that you committed after you already told him I did it.
I was buying time.
And, Sean, we needed it.
I had to, I While I was driving away from the motel, I ran a red light.
And the cop ran my license and they grilled me.
I had to tell them something.
I could be on death row because of you.
You are out because of me.
And I don't have a dime of that lottery money.
It was all in the bag in Park's office and the cops have it now.
I fell in love with you when it looked like you didn't have anything, and Zoe's money was gone.
You think I give a damn about the lottery? It has a way of changing people.
Look what it's done to you.
You framed an innocent man, Tally.
Park's never going to jail.
You don't know that.
You do.
He's a shark, and it's just one piece of evidence.
It's just enough to clear you.
It's ove Sean.
Let it be over.
Aw The orphanage only had these three pictures, but isn't she amazing? Yeah, she is.
When do you get her? I go to Beijing in a day and a half.
Wow.
Yeah.
What, are you going alone? I'll ask Kimberly, or hire a nanny.
Whatever it takes.
Wow, Beth.
Well, thank you for showing me this.
It mean a lot.
Actually, um it's not the only reason I'm here.
I need you to sign the divorce papers.
Um, I'm working with another agency now and the papers need to be filed with the court before I can adopt.
I know it seems really weird and so fast, but No, it's it's okay.
You know, Beth, um, I'm really happy for you.
You know, moving on.
Thanks.
I'm happy, too.
ETHAN: Mom, I know it's my birthday and we're about to go to my party, so what's the big surprise? Hold on.
KIDS: Surprise! Ta-da! ( cheering, chattering ) Wow! Happy birthday, baby.
Are you ready for some batting practice? Okay, but I'm not ry good.
Honey, listen.
You are gonna love this, I swear.
And there's somebody here who might even improve your game.
Dad? Did Dad come? Um well, no, baby.
Daddy couldn't make it.
But Dave Winfield did.
That is not Dave Winfield.
Hall of Famer Dave Winfield? Dad's all-time favorite player? Happy birthday, Ethan.
Yes, that's him.
Go.
Go say hi.
DAMIEN: Okay, I've been doing a little bit of research on the Internet, okay? And did you know that the infant mortality rate in Russia is two and a half times worse than it is here, and we're not even that good.
Damien, stop.
It's bad luck to even think about it.
No, plus there's violence, poor education, low per-capita income.
Turns out li not so perfect in your country, either.
Galina, here I can help you.
You can't help us there? What is it you want, Damien? I want you to stay.
I already talked to my dad.
He'll release some of my money to buy you a house to live in.
You know, nothing crazy, but, you know, someplace that's safe, nice and close.
Why matter so much for baby to be here? I want him to have the best, that's all.
But in Russia, this child will have a father.
A father? Razmik? Come on, Galina.
This is no answer, Damien.
What will baby have here? He'll have me.
I want to be in his life.
Please let me.
Come on, Peter, hit it out of the park! Hi, Kimberly.
Hey.
Michael.
The party started an hour ago.
I know.
I been in and out of here, like, five times trying to work up the nerve.
The nerve? Why? Look at this place.
Look what you did for him.
Yeah, okay, well why do you think I had to do all this? I mean, it took a stadium and a batting session with Dave Winfield to make him forget that weren't coming.
Wait a minute.
Did you say Dave Winfield? ( cheering ) Come on, baby! Go! Safe! What are you talking about? I tagged him.
Mom, ump said I was safe.
You calling your old man a liar? Daddy! Daddy! You came! Look, Mom, Daddy came.
Hey.
Hey.
I got a call from the alarm company.
Don't worry, I went through the whole house.
Just a breeze blew open a window in back.
I gave them your cell number 'cause, uh, all they had was mine Right, I'm sorry.
Thank you.
Oh, um guess I should give you this.
Yeah, you know, I was just, uh coming by to pick up some things.
I'm actually staying with my parents.
It's more of a transitional thing, I hope, because 'Cause you're getting back with Peter.
We're trying, if he can forgive me.
What about you? What do you want? As long as there's a chance to keep my family together Wait, Cameron.
I wanted this.
This house, our life.
I wanted you to kiss me that first night, when we bought the ticket.
I wanted to know that you loved me and I want you to know that I love you.
I think I probably always will.
That's how all this started.
Me thinking if you only knew how I felt it'd be okay, be easier.
Now it's something we both have to live with.
Hey, what's up, girlfriend? WALKER: Hey, Frankie.
Don't ask.
It's Too late.
Which do you want me to start with? My parents' divorce, or my dad's disintegrating sanity, or my boyfriend's pregnant ex-wife? Which I swore I'd stop saying.
Come on.
( dance music playing ) Well, you made the right call.
Forget all your troubles with some folks who rock at forgetting.
What troubles? That's my girl.
Sean, I think we should get away from here for a little while.
Not disappear just put some distance between us and everything that's happened.
So we don't have to see Park hang for something he didn't do? Tally, did you, um did you get a ticket when you ran that red light? When they pulled you over, and dragged you in for questioning? You didn't just go into the station and tell them that I did it, when it looked like it was either you or me.
Sean, no.
And then, what? I don't know, maybe figure out a way to frame Park later? 'Cause, Tally, I have seen you with your back to the wall a few times now, and you always save yourself.
What are you doing? What is that? It's a hundred grand.
Give or take.
Now, they're mostly large bills, so you're gonna have to pick the towns, the banks.
Big cities are best.
You want me to run? No, I want you to stay.
Okay? I want you to tell the police what really happened.
I want you to tell them it was an accident, that Zoe fell down the stairs, okay? Trust that I'll stay by you.
I'll get you the best lawyers money can buy.
I'm done running, I'm done lying.
You murdered someone.
You framed an innocent man.
Park is so far from innocent.
I know.
But he did not murder anyone.
Neither did I.
It was an accident.
The longer you wait, the worse this is going to look.
Covering this thing up, you have made a thousand mistakes, but one of those things will trip you up.
I'm gonna be back in an hour.
I hope to God you're still here.
MARRIAGE COUNSELOR: It takes time to rebuild trust and familiarity.
NINA: if they saw me living with my parents, then it wouldn't seem so foreign and I wouldn't seem so far away.
I checked your cell phone bill.
What? I don't know why, except that it was so easy.
There were days when you were on the phone with him four or five times.
This was months ago.
And maybe you were sleeping with him, then No, I wasn't, I swear.
Okay, maybe you weren't.
But how long have you wanted to be with him? I married you.
I want you.
You want what we had, Nina.
That is gone.
I'm different now.
I've changed.
So many things have happened since we won that money.
The bike business-- that was my dream.
And I made it happen.
Even though I might lose it now, I feel like I lived a life.
And where were you? Hiding in another part of the house, or in your car, on the cell phone to Cameron.
You're never going to forgive me.
I'll try.
I swear I will.
But I don't want to be married to you.
DAMIEN: Didn't see you at school.
Thought I'd check in, see if you were okay.
Yeah, I'm fine, just tired.
I kind of stayed out late last night.
With who? Your mother? No, um just this girl Miranda and her brother and some other guys.
This brother have a name? Walker.
Walker Keyton.
His father owns the hotel.
Really? What's this, uh, Walker guy look like? Okay, don't tell me you're jealous, 'cause I'm not the one getting cozy with my pregnant ex-wife.
Kind of why I got you this.
Open it.
What is it? It's a promise ring.
To say I'm committed to you, pretty much no matter what.
Like a pre-engagement engagement ring? Yeah.
I-I can't wear that, Damien.
I don't even know how I feel right now.
What did you want me to do, Frankie? Let Galina walk away and never see my child? I think of you having a kid with another woman-- a family-- and it's so huge.
I just I don't know, Damien.
Um, I'm just gonna leave this here for you, in casyou change your mind.
I want you to know I didn't know what to do about that baby.
But you and me-- I've never been so sure about anything in my life.
What do you want, Park? Don't tell me you're throwing yourself a pity party because your girlfriend ran away.
It's all over the news, buddy.
You know, I'd thank you, but I really didn't appreciate the money being planted in my office.
Was that your handiwork or hers? I think you should go.
The detective on the case implied you did me a favor.
She's their #1 suspect now.
Yep, happy days for you.
Now leave.
Yeah, in a minute.
I'm here to help, really.
With Tally wanted for her murder, Zoe's money, your winnings, is going back into probate.
Now, the estate's going to argue that Tally had no right to any of it, which means she had no right to gift it to you.
Wait.
Then what happens to it? Maybe Zoe's parents get it, maybe the state or the lotto commission.
Either way, you'll have to give back all your winnings.
Wait, so then all this was for what, for nothing? Well, that's just perfect.
No, no, wait a second.
I can help you stash a few million.
The court would write it off A few millionalready spent, ??but of 20.
s to be hidden well.
??A few millin So, get to the part about your fee.
That's always you at your saddest.
Hundred thousand.
$200,000 depending on what kind of strings we need to pull.
Okay.
You know, you're like a broken record that keeps on getting marked down.
I tell you what's sad, Sean.
Giving a pile of money to a bunch of people who don't deserve it and who have absolutely no clue what to do with it.
That's the real crime in all of this.
Thank you.
Did your wife notice it was gone? I told her I'd taken for cleaning.
It was a bad lie for a good reason.
Because you love him? Go on.
Admit.
It's not just for baby, it's for you.
He's a good man.
And now he's your man.
I don't know.
He has a girl.
Be patient.
Everybody will get what they deserve.
I'm taking some of the girls' toys over to my parents.
Maybe it'll help with the transition.
I hope that's okay.
How long have you been in love with him? Peter, please, let's not do this.
No, I'm not asking to torture you.
I'm asking because I love you.
If you could do it and you thought I wouldn't hate you, and you'd still have the love of your children, would you want to be with Cameron? Yes.
Then you should be with him.
( phone ringing ) Sean, tick-tock, time's a-running out, my friend.
I thought about your offer.
Meet me at Lincoln and 31st.
You kidding? I don't go to that part of town.
Two hours.
I'll see you there.
( womang,voices clamoring ) SUNNY: Come on, Colin You can do this.
Come on.
WOMAN: Go, go! Come on, Colin! Faster, faster, faster! Go, go, go! Come on, Colin! You can do it! Come on! What are you doing, Sunny? Watching the Tour De Rhone.
Well, I couldn't help notice some of the other employees are packing up their stuff.
You sure you want to be here to the bitter end? Peter, Colin's closing in on the lead.
He's actually still in it.
What? You know how pathetic your father is to me, right? How miserably grub-like I find him, especially when it comes to money, right? Yeah, you're pretty up-front about that, Mom.
Thanks.
Well, it's gotten worse.
I'm not sure I can hear this.
Did you know he lost his job? Really? Yeah, I went to see him about the package he sent, and his office was empty.
They even have a restraining order against him.
I guess I'm not the only one in his "Turd of the Month Club.
" Well, Mom, what if he's really not okay? What is this? Did Damien ask you to marry him? No, Mom, give that back! Well, what does the note say? It's just a promise ring, that's all.
What? Aren't you going to tell me that I'm too young and he's too irresponsible, and that all men are just like dad, so I should just check myself into the convent or whatever? No.
He's nothing like your dad.
Your father was willing to give up anything for money.
And Damien? Well, he's willing to give up anything for you.
Hell, he already has.
Come on! Go! Come on, Colin! Whoa! Yes! Ah! We did it! We did it! We did it! Oh, my Orders are going to start pouring in.
You can pay your vendors! Everyone keeps their jobs! You are going to be rich, rich, richer than you can possibly imagine! And we did it! We didn't just win it, we earned it.
What? Too greedy? ( Sunny laughing ) ( doorbell rings ) ( gate opening ) Can I help you? Hi.
Yeah.
I'm looking for Cameron.
Oh, yeah, I've seen you around.
Well, he's out of town.
He asked me to keep an eye on the house.
I think he's going to be gone for a while.
Oh, okay.
He just left a half hour ago.
If you went to the airport, you could probably catch him.
Thanks.
WOMAN ( over P.
A.
): Flight #79 with nonstop service to Hong Kong, is now boarding.
Passengers needing special assistance I'm sorry.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Pardon me.
Cameron? Beth.
What are you doing here? I-I know I have no right to even ask, but I want to go with you to China.
What? Will you just hear me out? Beth, you were right.
I keep turning to the past for something I missed out on; things-things that I'll never get back.
Like with my dad.
And Nina.
I don't know, maybe, but Well, I look at you, and the choice you're making, and it's all about the future and about a belief that life could be good.
You know? Good enough to share.
And I'm not asking you to share it with me.
Okay, maybe just a little bit of it.
So you want to come to China? To do what? WOMAN ( over P.
A.
): Flight 324, nonstop to Beijing, is now boarding.
Beth, you're going to need some help, aren't you? You said to me when we were married that I was never there for you.
let me be there for you now Stop it! Help! Sean, where the hell are you? SEAN ( over phone ): You were right.
The mistake me, Zoe, and Tally made was we turned our lives upside down trying to hang onto something that we didn't deserve.
Maybe we should have just held on to each other and just let go of the money.
