Please don't do this.
I don't want this life.
David--
We're done.
He called off the engagement?
Maybe we went too far.
Do you regret what we did?
Closer...
- Cocoa. - We will be together...
just you and I...
...together.
Katie, it's me.
- Get out of here! - Katie, please!
Get away from me, Gregory, or I will call the police.
Nothing would make me happier than to help take down Arthur Frobisher.
Thank you for meeting with us again, Mr. Moore.
I know it's frustrating,
but there is simply no proof that Frobisher did anything wrong.
But you think he did.
Who doesn't?
Dumping his stock, accounting irregularities--
I really wish I could be more helpful.
In the meantime,
if you want to talk strategy, I'm at your disposal.
- There was one other thing. - Sure.
We were wondering about one of Frobisher's shareholders.
Does this name mean anything to you?
Gregory Malina. Doesn't ring a bell.
But let me make some calls. I'll see what I can find.
If there's one thing Frobisher is good at, it's tying up loose ends.
All right, I'll see you soon, okay?
Jeez!
- David. - Lila.
You rescheduled your rotation, and I almost missed you.
That would have sucked.
Is everything okay, or...?
I sold the defibrillator. And you were amazingly helpful.
- Good. - Which is why
I'm going to take you to dinner... as a thank you.
- It's a little Italian place on the-- - Lila.
I'm sorry, I've gotta pass on that.
Why?
You know why.
It's just dinner.
It is notjust dinner, and you know that.
Look...
your grandfather was sick.
I was the doctor who was trying to help him.
It's very common for emotions to get mixed up.
My emotions aren't mixed up.
Lila, we have talked about this.
I'm not available.
- Malina owned Frobisher stock? - I don't know what you're talking about.
Is there anything you didn't do for that kid?
- Gregory worked for me. That's all. - Save it, Ray.
I wouldn't give a shit about your pathetic schoolgirl crush--
- Watch yourself! - but I'm not gonna let your bullshit
take me down.
Malina emptied his bank account.
He's back in the States. Did you know that?
What do you want from me?
I want you on my team.
I don't understand.
I don't like you, Ray,
but I realized an amazing thing on the way over here:
You're not my problem-- Arthur is.
- I have a duty to-- - Patty Hewes is a balls-hair away
from breaking this thing wide open...
so I'm gonna do what you couldn't.
And what is that?
Put an end to this thing.
The SEC's been a dead end so far.
But Mr. Moore is looking into Gregory Malina's stock sale.
Good....
because Gregory's back in play.
What'd you find?
When Frobisher told Larry Popler that Gregory Malina was alive...
he was telling the truth.
A flight manifest?
The day Gregory disappeared he was booked on a plane to Mexico City.
That's out of the reach of the court.
There was no sign of him until he used his credit card yesterday.
He rented a car about 40 miles north of the border,
in Alamogordo.
Any idea why he'd come back?
When is the last time you spoke to Katie?
Not since she went back home.
That could be it. He felt bad about setting her up.
He tried to call her after he burned her as a witness.
Get in touch with her.
I got one of these in the mail, too. You goin' to this thing?
The gala for the Blind Justice Project?
No, I am not.
Says Patty Hewes is giving the keynote speech.
Could be interesting.
Art, don't even think about it. You're not going.
- Nancy. Good to see you. - Good to see you.
- This is Art. - Thank you for coming in.
Pleasure.
- Please. - Yeah, let's sit down there.
All right.
So, Ray says you're the best out there at...
what, preparing a witness?
I hope I can help.
Good.
So...
what exactly are we gonna do?
Do you ever sing around the house, maybe in the shower?
- Nope. - Oh, come on.
I hum.
This exercise will help you relax.
You want to look for a way in, not a way out.
I'd do a lot better with Simon and Garfunkel.
You can do whatever you want.
But you're gonna have to look comfortable
answering Patty's questions about corporate malfeasance,
about accounting irregularities,
and about why you stole the life savings of 5,000 people.
That might be easier than singing.
All right.
Go for it.
Yes, Mom, I'm fine.
I wish you were here with us.
- How's Montreal? - Great, but I left my video camera.
Yeah, I know, Dad left a message you left it behind.
He didn't give me an address. Where do you want me to send it?
Hold on, Mom. That's your phone.
Go ahead, dear.
- Hello? - Katie?
It's Ellen.
I've been trying--
Shit.
Ms. Parsons?
Ms. Parsons.
Mr. Moore.
Please, get in.
Look, I want to help you.
I wasted years of my life going after Frobisher,
and my hands were tied every step of the way.
Why?
Why? Because the man has friends in high places.
But I know things--
information that we couldn't use in the government case
that would be invaluable to Patty Hewes in a civil trial.
Like what?
I sit on boards, Ms. Parsons. I advise political campaigns.
I will not go public.
If you call me as a witness, I'll lie.
Mr. Moore--
Frobisher is a powerful man.
You want my help?
That's the deal.
Talk to your boss.
But for now...
start by looking into Arlington.
I have bad news.
What?
It's confirmed.
What is?
You've lost your mind.
- Your keys. - How is that possible?
You must have had a psychotic break.
You know what you need?
A weekend at the beach.
- The Hamptons. - You serious?
Tom told me about a great place.
I think if we don't get away I may lose you forever.
You were aware of these accounting strategies?
Yes, absolutely.
And these were the SPVs that you had created?
Yes, although I think in our country
the more popular term
- would be SPE. - SPE?
That's right, SPE-- Special Purpose Entity.
And are these SPEs commonly incorporated
toward illegitimate ends?
- No. - The hiding of debt, for example.
No, and I'd say...
Do you have a question, or are you just trying to ruin our concentration?
Neither. George Moore came to see me last night.
...isolate financial risk...
Where?
Outside my apartment.
He met with you alone?
He wants to help us-- off the record.
- How? - Arlington. He told me to look into it.
1983. Arlington, Virginia.
Some girl was killed in a car crash.
It was Frobisher's car.
- It was 25 years go. It's old news. - There were conflicting accounts.
But the official police report backed Frobisher's story
that the girl was driving.
Yeah, it did, but I ran a history,
and in the last 25 years the girl's family
went from living in a trailer park to being the biggest land owner in Arlington.
So you think Frobisher's paying people off.
He screws up, he buys silence. Katie, Gregory--it's Frobisher's MO.
That won't help us in the deposition unless we can back it up.
I want to meet with Moore again--
push him further, work the relationship.
All right.
- I'll go with you. - Wrong move, Tom.
He approached Ellen alone. That's the way he wants it.
Just hear me out. Please.
- Operator, how may I help you? - Penston Police Department.
There's a warrant out for my arrest.
Yes, it's an emergency.
You talk to the police, they're gonna send me back to New York
and Frobisher will kill me.
I'm not running anymore. You can do whatever you want.
You tell me one lie and I will cut your dick off.
- Ms. Parsons? - Yes?
I'm sorry to bother you, but we really need to talk.
I'm sorry, what is this in reference to?
Your fiance.
What about him?
I think we're gonna want to talk privately.
Everything that happened to you was my fault.
The only reason why you got involved was because
I brought you to the condo that night.
Ray Fiske gave me a thousand shares of Frobisher stock
to go down to Florida, rent the condo in my name.
What for?
At the time I had no idea.
I didn't ask. It was a lot of money. I was broke.
But it turns out that Frobisher was going to meet with
- some guy from the government. - Who?
I--I can't tell you that.
It would put you at too much risk. Trust me.
But this whole thing started because he thought that you saw him.
- But I didn't. - I told them that,
but they didn't believe me.
So they just try to buy me off with a restaurant.
They kept postponing it.
They had to keep you quiet during the government trial.
And what about you? How long have you been on their payroll?
A few weeks after Florida
they hooked me up with ajob with a consulting firm.
- And who was the guy in the limo? - I have no idea.
Once you started talking to Patty, they just needed to burn you as a witness.
So they gave you Luke Richards' name to set me up.
- They used us both. - And we let them.
These guys...have all the power.
And they're convinced everyone's out to get them.
How do you know David, Miss--?
DiMeo. Lila DiMeo.
I met him at the hospital. He was treating my grandfather.
And what exactly can I help you with?
God, I'm a terrible liar.
I'm not here about David.
Then why are you here?
I'm here about you. David doesn't love you anymore.
Excuse me?
Who are you?
I must seem crazy, but I thought you should know--
I've been sleeping with him.
- I think you better leave. - There's no point in getting mad.
You need to leave.
We can't change how we feel.
What are you doing?
- Front desk. - Security.
Fifth floor, Hewes and Associates.
- Which office? - Ellen Parsons' office.
- Hold a moment. - I feel sorry for you.
- Would you like us to send someone? - Right away. Thank you.
You didn't deserve this.
Why weren't you at my arraignment?
I tried.
I tried, but with everything that's been going on...
- Ellen. - What?
What happened with you and Patty?
I know that you're not telling me everything.
He called off the engagement?
Maybe we went too far.
Do you regret what we did?
So, there's bourbon in the kitchen. And remember to walk Cory.
Where can I reach you?
I'll be at the beach house. Tom has the number.
The storm cleared Montauk,
- should be a perfect weekend. - Thank you, Perry.
Ellen...
everything's gonna be all right.
That's insane. She is crazy.
Who is she?
Her name is Lila DiMeo.
She's lying. We did not sleep together.
She said that you treated her grandfather.
Yeah. I did.
I--I met her at the hospital.
But then her grandfather was released.
- And did you see her after that? - No.
Yes. No--ye--
Yes or no?
She had this medical equipment that she wanted to sell,
so I took a look at it for her.
What?
Well, she--
she asked me to price a defibrillator for her.
Where?
- At...her apartment. - So you were at her apartment?
What the hell were you doing at her apartment?
I just--I gave her a price, and that's it. Nothing happened.
Then why are you so uncomfortable?
Because I feel like you're accusing me of something.
A woman came into my office today and told me she was sleeping with you.
Listen to me.
I hardly know her. Clearly, the woman is nuts.
Stay away from her... and tell her to stay away from me.
Patty Hewes knows about Arlington.
- How in hell does she-- - I told her associate.
Jesus!
The last thing Arthur wants is for that shit to come out in the deposition.
That is a mighty risky game you're playing.
Relax. Arlington's all his.
You and I have nothing to do with it.
And when that asshole finds out that Patty Hewes knows about it,
he'll have to settle.
Just shut up and play your part.
- Ms. Hewes-- - Chin.
I was stunned when I learned--
Elbows off the table.
Miss Hewes, I was stunned when I learned
that the accounting firm had defrauded my company.
Don't blink when you say that.
You were stunned?
Why is that?
I mean, you cashed out just in time.
You walked away with millions.
I gave that company everything I had.
And I failed...
my employees...
my family...
I failed pretty much everyone who ever believed in me.
Bullshit.
Stop making speeches. You're trying too hard.
Bullshit?
Don't you tell me "bullshit."
You have no idea what I've been through.
Art...this is why she's here.
Don't tell me "bullshit."
People expect a CEO to be strong.
They see too much of the soft side...
looks like an act.
You've gotta be heartfelt without sounding like a pussy.
Now, you think you can do that?
All right.
All right, fair enough.
Let's do this again.
Since when does the SEC investigate car accidents?
I'm not going to give you everything.
Cindy Lambert died in a car crash in 1983.
Frobisher said he wasn't driving,
and the Lambert family backed him up.
Now they're very rich.
Is that so?
So I'm guessing the Lambert family was given Frobisher stock.
If the SEC knew this, why didn't they use it in the criminal trial?
Thejudge excluded it on relevance.
We were going after Frobisher for insider trading and accounting fraud.
What are you getting out of this?
I tried to take Frobisher down and I failed.
I still wantjustice.
If you did, you'd go public. I think you have other reasons.
What happened between you two, Mr. Moore?
Did Frobisher block your political career?
Blackball you from his country club?
Sleep with your wife?
You have the truth.
Now use it against him.
Patty Hewes doesn't like surprises or hidden agendas.
I better not find out you have one.
Why did you tell me that you were married?
That was their idea-- so you wouldn't tell anyone about us.
And after Florida...
when you helped me with all of that stuff...
was that all a part of the set-up too?
No. That was me.
Look, this is gonna sound crazy--
I know what I did to you, Katie...
is unforgivable.
But I liked you.
I've always liked you.
When I was in Mexico hiding, I thought...
I just--
I just wanted to see you again.
I thought...
...maybe if we spoke, if I--
if I could just explain things,
then maybe we could just...
You ruined my life.
- Hello. - Hey.
It's me.
I know I shouldn't be calling.
I just wanted to say I realize...
I was wrong back then.
Well...
you were?
Yeah.
To let you...
expect more from me...
The last time I saw you, you told me
it was too late to change.
It's not.
You can change.
And you can withdraw from the case, Ray.
Cut those guys off. All they do is hurt people.
It's not that simple.
It is. You're not like them.
I know you want to do the right thing.
I'm sorry, Gregory.
For everything.
Take care, Ray.
The hotel's totally booked.
I don't where we can go on such short notice.
This is your first weekend off in, what?
Forever.
So ask for the beach house.
Ask who?
Patty.
No thanks.
Mr. Moore insists on total anonymity.
We'll never get him to testify. I question the guy's motives.
That's all right.
If we can confirm that the Lambert family was given Frobisher stock,
we can use it against Frobisher in the deposition.
- Good. - Anything else?
Yeah.
Ellen wants to use your beach house.
No. I--
She wants to go away for the weekend.
Be my guest.
- Thank you, but I couldn't possibly. - It's just sitting there empty.
And I have the gala this weekend.
Well, okay. Thank you.
Get the keys from Uncle Pete.
I've been trying to reach Patty.
She won't call me back.
Go to the beach house.
I will, I will. But Ellen--
Go to the beach house, Tom.
Patty...
it's me again.
You need to call me back.
Patty?
Tommy. Didn't hear you coming.
Have you seen Patty?
I was gonna ask you.
I need the keys to the beach house.
My name is Gregory Malina.
I've made this tape because right now...
I don't trust anyone...
and I want to make sure my story gets out.
In 2002, I met Ray Fiske.
I didn't know it at the time, but he was Arthur Frobisher's lawyer.
Shortly after, Mr. Fiske sent me down to Florida to help set up a meeting.
I didn't know what this meeting was about,
but I know that Arthur Frobisher was in contact with
a member of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The name of that member is...
George Moore.
- Keys to the castle, m'lady. - Thanks, Pete.
- And your chariot. - What's this?
Patty heard you're renting a car, and she insists that you take hers.
Thank you.
What's the matter, boy? Need to go out?
You were right about Lila DiMeo. She's nuts.
What do you mean?
I did a background on her.
She got kicked out of college for stalking her professor,
and since then she's had three restraining orders put on her.
Jesus.
Stay away from her, David.
Good boy, Cocoa.
Come on, boy.
Cocoa. Cocoa.
Stay.
Gregory?
Oh, my God.
Holy shit.
Gregory?
It's done.
It was Katie Connor's area code.
You were right.
Good.
Wow.
Oh, my God.
- This is amazing. - I can't believe this.
Come here.
Cool.
Arlington? She's gonna dredge up that shit?
I thought we had it sealed.
Patty's people came to me.
They know the family owns stock.
Patty's gonna say you paid 'em off.
I don't give a shit.
I'll handle it.
Arlington, Katie Connor, Gregory Malina--
let her depose me.
- We're going to trial, Ray. - No, we're not.
It's not even relevant.
That was 25 years ago-- it has nothing to do with this trial.
If Patty gets it into the deposition, she'll undermine your credibility.
The burden of proof's lower in a civil trial.
Fact is, she'll use it to establish an M.O.
She'll say it proves you have a history of buying off witnesses.
You got to settle.
He's right. - I heard him, George.
What are you gonna do?
When the Blind Justice Project
asked me to present this award tonight to Richard LaMontaigne,
I didn't know what to say.
Not because I was flattered,
but because I didn't even know who he was.
So I Googled him.
You might be surprised to learn that Richie, in his youth,
won three ATV motocross championships.
I mean, I was--
until I realized I had spelled his name wrong.
How is it that a woman who's argued cases before the Supreme Court
hates to give a speech in public?
There are nine people on the Supreme Court,
and only six are awake on any given day.
Excuse me. May I?
- Okay. - Thank you.
Patty Hewes.
Shall we?
I caught you on TV last week.
You don't like me very much, do you?
Why would you say that?
Well, why should you? You don't really know me.
So that's why you're here.
I'm here... because I'm willing to negotiate.
There's nothing to negotiate. This isn't about money.
Oh, no, no, of course not.
I know you don't give a shit aboutjustice, Patty,
so what do you want?
I want you disgraced.
I want history to erase your every achievement.
I want you to feel the disgust in your children's eyes
when they look on you in shame.
Well...
this has been lovely.
It's rude to abandon a girl on the dance floor.
The song's over, Patty.
Almost as bad as abandoning a girl in a burning car.
All right.
Let's get this over with, shall we?
Three hundred million.
Must have been horrible--
her face smashed clear though the windshield.
Four hundred and fifty million.
Blood everywhere,
gasoline, searing heat.
I'm told you never forget the smell of burning flesh.
Eight hundred and fifty million. That's my final offer.
Did she shout out your name when she died?
"Arthur!"
Arthur.
Coffee's ready.
Or do you just want to call it a night?
No.
No. Sorry.
No, I want you to keep playing Patty Hewes.
Patty?
Patty, it's me again.
Where the hell are you?
