SARA?
BED BY 8:00, OKAY, JANEY?
WE ALREADY DROPPED TWO CHARGES AND KNOCKED A YEAR
OFF THE DAMN SENTENCE.
WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?
THE SHOW IS OVER! PUT ANOTHER ONE ON.
DON'T LET HIM TALK YOU INTO ANO-- SARA.
ONE. LOOK, IF I DON'T HAVE A DEAL
ON MY DESK BY 8:00 A.M. TOMORROW,
I WILL MAKE SURE THE JURY HANGS HIS ASS.
SORRY.
WHAT'S THIS?
GOT YOU A TIE FOR TONIGHT.
WENT TO THAT PLACE YOU LIKED AND TALKED TO THE LADY.
YEAH, RIGHT, IT'S GREAT. I MEAN, IT'S--I DON'T KNOW
IF IT'LL BE GOOD FOR TONIGHT, THOUGH.
I GOTTA A LOOK ON MESSAGE.
I GOT ALL THESE PEOPLE COMING TO YOUR SHOW--
GOVERNOR'S GUY, CONGRESSWOMAN.
YOU OKAY?
JUST NERVOUS.
SAW KENDRA TODAY.
I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE THEY'RE GETTING DIVORCED.
UH, THAT WAS KIND OF A TRAIN WRECK FROM THE GET-GO.
THEY SEEMED REALLY IN LOVE WHEN WE FIRST MET THEM.
DID THEY, THOUGH? I MEAN, JEFF--
THAT GUY'S A JERK.
AND KENDRA--SHE ISN'T EXACTLY A WALK IN THE PARK, EITHER.
STILL, AFTER TEN YEARS,
HOW DOES A MARRIAGE JUST BLOW UP LIKE THAT?
SOMEONE LIGHTS A MATCH.
AH. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
ENJOY.
YOU MADE ME LOOK PUGNACIOUS.
OH, IT WAS YOUR IDEA, MR. KARSTEN.
YES, WELL, THANK YOU IN ANY CASE.
YOU'RE WELCOME.
MAY I INTRODUCE MY SON,
THATCHER ALEXANDER KARSTEN II? HI. HI.
"T.J." IS FINE.
NICE TO MEET YOU, T.J.
COME ON, T.J. LET'S GET YOU SOMETHING TO DRINK.
WOW! THATCHER KARSTEN CAME.
WHY WOULDN'T HE?
BUSY MAN.
BETWEEN MERGERS, THE ACQUISITIONS,
IMPENDING LAWSUITS.
IT'S NOT LIKE YOU GET RICH IN CHICAGO REAL ESTATE
WITHOUT THROWING A FEW SHARP ELBOWS.
ALDERMAN'S HERE. I GOTTA GO KISS THE RING.
OH, NO, PLEASE STAY.
I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH SMALL TALK I HAVE LEFT IN ME.
YOU... WILL BE GREAT.
PRETTY CHILLY WITHOUT A COAT.
I NEEDED SOME AIR. IT'S QUITE A CROWD.
YOU FROM THE GALLERY?
YEAH.
WHAT BRINGS YOU TO THE OPENING?
UH, MY BOSS ASKED ME TO COME.
TWISTED YOUR ARM.
UH, THIS STUFF'S NOT MY THING. I, UH...
HERE.
OH, NO, REALLY. IT'S...
NO, REALLY. YOU'RE--YOU'RE SHIVERING.
THANK YOU. YEAH.
WHAT'S NOT YOUR THING?
OH, ART.
I'M MORE INTO THE, YOU KNOW, REAL LIFE STUFF--
WHERE YOU CAN SEE AND HOLD ONTO, TOUCH.
YOU KNOW, I...
TO ME, THAT'S WHAT MATTERS IN LIFE,
NOT--NOT HOW PEOPLE DREAM IT.
YOU PREFER REALISM.
AND WILL FERRELL MOVIES.
THERE'S, UH, SOME PHOTOGRAPHY IN THERE, TOO.
IT'S KIND OF REAL.
I'VE, UM, I'VE HEARD IT'S NOT TOO BAD.
OH, NO, YOU'RE--YOU'RE NOT THE ARTIST, ARE YOU?
IT'S A GROUP SHOW. I'M ONE OF THEM.
SHOULD I EAT MY SHOE NOW?
SCOTCH AND SODA, TWIST.
COMING UP.
THANK YOU. YES, SIR.
...FRAMING, THE ANGLE, THE EXPOSURE,
TRYING TO CONVEY SOMETHING,
LIKE AN IMAGE THAT YOU SEE IN YOUR MIND'S EYE
OR... THE WAY THAT YOU... DREAM IT.
YOU DO, YOU MEAN-- DREAM IT.
YOU ARE THE ARTIST.
OKAY, THE WAY I DREAM IT.
NOT A BAD VIEW.
IT'S--YOU CAN ALMOST SEE THE LAKE FROM HERE.
I LOVE THE WATER. I MISS THE WATER.
WHEN THAT WOULD HAPPEN,
MY SISTER AND I USED TO SAY, "DIAMOND ROSE."
"DIAMOND ROSE"? I THOUGHT IT WAS "JINX."
ANYWAY, YOU WERE SAYING?
OH, I-I GREW UP ON THE WATER,
IMAGINING I'D END UP A WRECK DIVER,
SEARCHING FOR LOST GOLD AT THE BOTTOM OF LAKE MICHIGAN.
IT'S CRAZY.
SO YOU NEVER FOUND YOUR TREASURE.
STILL LOOKING, I GUESS.
YOU LIVE HERE, BUT YOU SPEND YOUR LIFE RUSHING AROUND.
YOU FORGET HOW CLOSE IT IS--
WATER AND THE OPEN SPACE.
YOU LOSE SIGHT OF THINGS.
YOU DO, YOU MEAN.
THANK YOU.
I SHOULD GET BACK INSIDE.
GOOD LUCK WITH THE SHOW.
GOOD LUCK DIVING FOR WRECKS.
THANK YOU SO--THANK YOU. IT'S AMAZING.
MY BEAUTIFUL ARTISTE.
I LOVE THE LANDSCAPES IN THE EAST WING. OHH!
-- Captions by VITAC --
YEAH. IT'S ALMOST A MILLION BUCKS.
IT'S A COMPANY CALLED MULTINATIONAL BUILDERS' CORP.
YEAH.
UH... YEAH. JUST GET INTO FORENSICS ON THAT.
ALL RIGHT.
TAXI!
HEY. HEY.
SMALL WORLD. SORRY.
WHAT-- WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
UH... THE GALLERY REFERRED ME.
I-I NEEDED TO GET A PHOTO FRAMED.
I THOUGHT YOU WEREN'T INTO THAT STUFF.
WELL, I-I SAW ONE THAT CHANGED MY MIND.
IT'S YOURS...
WOW. IN FACT.
YOU BOUGHT THAT?
I STOLE IT. CAT BURGLAR TYPE THING.
YOU KNOW, SNUCK IN LATE AT NIGHT.
IT WASN'T EVEN IN THE SHOW.
YEAH, THEY SHOWED ME THE SECRET ARTSY STASH
IN THE BACK ROOM.
YOU KNOW, I HAVE THIS FRAMING GUY
WHO'S REALLY GOOD.
I'LL TELL HIM HOW I WANT IT MATTED, FRAMED ALL PER
"ARTIST'S" INSTRUCTIONS, AND BEST PART IS,
IT'LL COST YOU EXACTLY NOTHING.
SOUNDS LIKE AN OFFER I CAN'T REFUSE.
GOOD. I'LL... I'LL LET YOU KNOW WHEN IT'S DONE.
YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL.
I MEAN... IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
THE--THE PHOTO'S...
UH... HERE. YOU--YOU MIGHT NEED THIS.
RIGHT. UH... "JACK McALLISTER."
AND YOU ARE SARA HANLEY.
AH. NICE TO MEET YOU.
Y-YEAH.
ALL RIGHT. BYE.
WELL, THE KITCHEN IN THE RESTAURANT
FLOODED AGAIN.
THEY SAID IT'S GONNA COST $4,000 TO FIX,
BUT I DON'T KNOW. I JUST FEEL LIKE I SHOULD REALLY REDO IT.
BUT THEN THAT'S GONNA BE 10 GRAND,
PLUSH I HAVE TO SHUT DOWN FOR THREE WEEKS.
WHY DON'T YOU LET ME ASK YOUR DAD FOR A LITTLE HELP?
I'M SURE HE WON'T MIND.
YEAH. OF COURSE HE WON'T MIND.
HE LOANS ME MONEY TO RESCUE THIS BUSINESS
THAT HE NEVER WANTED ME TO START,
AND THEN HE CONTROLS ME THE WAY HE CONTROLS EVERYBODY ELSE.
I'M SORRY.
I DIDN'T... I DIDN'T MEAN...
YOU KNOW I JUST WANT THIS CAFE TO BE MINE
WITH NO STRINGS ATTACHED.
WELL, YOU'RE A KARSTEN. THERE ARE STRINGS. I KNOW THAT,
BUT THE WAY HE MAKES HIS MONEY, THE WAY HE DOES BUSINESS--
IF YOU THINK ALL THAT DIDN'T CONTRIBUTE TO MY MOTHER AND--
KAREN DIED OF A STROKE A DECADE AGO.
EASE UP ON HIM ALREADY. IT WAS EIGHT YEARS AGO.
W-WHY DO YOU ALWAYS DEFEND HIM LIKE THAT?
BECAUSE I WORK FOR HIM.
BECAUSE I ALLOW MYSELF TO APPRECIATE ALL HE'S DONE FOR US
IN A WAY THAT YOU NEVER WILL.
BYE, MOM. BYE, DAD. I'VE GOT AN EARLY BAND PRACTICE.
HEY, I NEED 10 BUCKS FOR THE TEAM PHOTO.
WAIT A MINUTE. WHAT ABOUT BREAKFAST? I JUST MADE EGGS.
I HAD A POWER SHAKE. I'M OFF PROTEIN. BYE.
HOW ABOUT A KISS? MM.
HAVE A GOOD DAY, BY DEAR PAPá!
GOD, DADDY'S GIRL. SO LAME.
BYE.
UH, MOM?
OKAY, OKAY. MOM.
OKAY. I HAVE TO GO.
OKAY, ALL RIGHT. MWAH!
YOU GUYS HAVE FUN AT THE AQUARIUM. WE WILL.
THANK YOU FOR TAKING HIM, JANEY. OF COURSE.
BYE! BYE, MOM.
BYE. YOU REALLY LIKED KARSTEN,
HUH?
HE DIDN'T SEEM LIKE A BAD GUY.
WELL, THE REALLY RICH ONES NEVER DO.
BY THE WAY, WHO WAS THAT MAN OUT ON THE BALCONY?
HE LOOKED FAMILIAR.
HELLO?
SO CONSTRUCTIONS'S ON SCHEDULE FOR A 2014 COMPLETION.
I HAD ACCOUNTING DO A BREAKDOWN OF MATERIAL COSTS.
WE'RE A LITTLE OVER.
BUT NOTHING TOO WORRISOME, RIGHT, JACK?
I'M GLAD IT ALL SEEMS IN ORDER.
YOU ALWAYS DO A GOOD JOB FOR ME, LOU.
WELL, DOES THIS MEAN HE GETS BEARS TICKETS?
'CAUSE UNCLE LOU ALWAYS TAKES ME WITH HIM
WHEN YOU GIVE HIM BEARS TICKETS.
THAT'S RIGHT. THERE IS ONE OTHER THING, LOU.
A SMALL DISCREPANCY.
THAT'S GREAT NEWS. I'LL SEE YOU SOON. ALL RIGHT.
HEY. MM-HMM?
REMEMBER WHEN WE FIRST MOVED IN?
WE HAD MORNINGS LIKE THIS ALL THE TIME?
THERE'S BEEN NUMEROUS UNSPECIFIED PAYMENTS
TO A COMPANY CALLED
MULTINATIONAL BUILDERS' CORPORATION.
WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THAT?
I'M NOT FAMILIAR WITH IT.
WE HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO TRACK IT DOWN.
MAYBE THAT PARTNER OF YOURS CAN CLARIFY IT?
WHAT'S HIS NAME? PERKINS?
I MEAN, HOW MUCH ARE WE TALKING ABOUT HERE?
OH. LET'S NOT QUIBBLE OVER NUMBERS, LOU.
JUST FIND OUT WHO THIS UNKNOWN RECIPIENT
OF OUR LARGESSE HAPPENS TO BE.
THAT'S ALL.
WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT, THATCH? I MEAN...
COME ON. JACK.
ARE YOU SUGGESTING I-- HE'S NOT SUGGESTING ANYTHING, LOU.
WE'RE JUST TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS.
I'LL, UH, TALK TO PERKINS.
HE'S LYING. I CAN SEE IT IN HIS EYES.
LET'S NOT GET AHEAD OF OURSELVES, THATCHER.
UNCLE LOU IS FAMILY. EXACTLY.
AND WHAT'S MORE SACRED THAN THAT?
I MISS THIS.
ME, TOO.
WHEN I WAS YOUNG,
I USED TO WORK FOR THIS GUY ON THE SOUTH SIDE--
FRANKIE MALINSKY.
HE HAD A RULE YOU COULD LIVE BY.
YOU, UH, YOU NEVER SAID WHO HE WAS--
THE MAN ON THE BALCONY.
I... I DIDN'T GET HIS NAME.
FRANKIE USED TO SAY...
"AFTER THE FIRST BETRAYAL,
THERE IS NO OTHER."
AND FOOD REVIEWS IS DOING A PIECE
ON THE TOP TEN SUSHI JOINTS IN CHICAGO,
SO WE NEED SOME GREAT FISH SHOTS. SARA?
SORRY? UNLESS YOU HAVE A MERCURY PROBLEM,
IT'S ALL YOURS. SALMON, TUNA, SQUID. GO FOR IT.
YOU MENTIONED THAT THE MAGAZINE
WAS GONNA BE BRANCHING OUT INTO FEATURES
WITH A LITTLE MORE EDGE.
I'D LIKE TO DO THAT-- SOMETHING MORE COMPELLING.
WELL, ON WHAT TOPIC? WHAT MOVES YOU?
I HAVE A FEW THINGS THAT I'M WORKING ON.
HOW ABOUT OBSESSION?
A PREOCCUPATION, A FIXATION WITH SOMETHING?
I'M FAMILIAR WITH THE TERM.
I THINK YOU REMEMBER A CERTAIN FRENCH PUBLISHER
WHO HAD ME SLACK-JAWED FOR A MONTH.
OH, YES. JEAN-CLAUDE.
WELL, HOW ABOUT A SERIES OF SHOTS OF PEOPLE
CAUGHT UP IN THINGS THEY CAN'T CONTROL?
CHANGES HOW THEY LIVE THEIR LIFE, WHO THEY ARE.
WORK IT UP FOR ME.
BUT JUST MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE A PERFUME AD, OKAY?
OOH. JEAN-CLAUDE.
MMM-MMM-MMM.
LOU'S RIPPING ME OFF, JACK.
I CAN FEEL IT.
IT DOESN'T HELP TO KEEP OBSESSING OVER IT.
I'M NOT OBSESSING. I'M BEING VIGILANT,
WHICH, BY THE WAY, IS WHAT I PAY YOU TO BE.
OKAY, BUT LET'S NOT RUSH TO ANY JUDGMENT HERE.
LET'S JUST BE PRUDENT.
HE'S RIGHT, POP.
WE SHOULD BE PRUDENT.
DO YOU REMEMBER WHY WE BAILED OUT LOU SO MANY TIMES?
GAVE HIM ALL THOSE CHANCES TO MAKE SOMETHING OF HIMSELF?
BECAUSE HE'S KAREN'S BROTHER.
TO DO THIS NOW, TO BETRAY ME LIKE THIS...
WE DON'T KNOW THAT.
MAYBE UNCLE LOU COULD EXPLAIN...
STAY OUT OF IT, T.J.
JACK McALLISTER.
Oh, hi. It's Sara... Hanley.
SARA. HI.
HOW ARE YA?
GOOD. YOUR PRINT IS DONE.
I work over at the Pierpont Building
if you'd like to pick it up.
SURE. UH... WILL YOU BE THERE?
I could, uh, I could buy you lunch as a thank you.
ACTUALLY, I HAVE TO CATCH A TRAIN.
I'M ON MY WAY OUT OF TOWN
for a job.
PERFECT, UH, MY OFFICE IS RIGHT BY UNION STATION.
WELL... I'M--I'M IN A BIT OF A RUSH, SO...
We could meet there.
YOU KNOW, REAL QUICK, LIKE A DRUG DEAL.
I HOPE IT WASN'T TOO MUCH TROUBLE.
NO, IT'S FINE.
IT'S JUST, UH, I'M WEIRD ABOUT CROWDS.
AGORAPHOBIA?
THEY--THEY SAY IT'S A FEAR OF CONNECTION.
OH. WOW. FREE ANALYSIS.
UH, HERE YOU ARE. OH, THANK YOU.
AN EXPRESSION OF MY APPRECIATION.
IT'S, UH, DOUGHNUT HOLES FROM LOU MITCHELL'S.
OH, THANKS.
WELL, WHERE YOU HEADED?
UM... DUNE ACRES TO SHOOT FISH.
WELL, THAT'S NOT VERY SPORTSMANLIKE.
YOU EVER HEARD OF CATCH AND RELEASE?
OH, SUSHI. UH, I'M THE "ARTIST," RIGHT?
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HOW YOU'RE GONNA TURN SUSHI INTO ART.
WHY DO I GET THE FEELING
THAT YOU'RE ALWAYS PLAYING SOME SORT OF GAME WITH ME?
OH, I GUESS I'M JUST FUN LIKE THAT.
OR MAYBE YOU'RE JUST USED TO HIDING
BEHIND SOME CLEVER, CHARMING REMARK,
AND YOU KNOW WHAT THAT SOUNDS LIKE?
FEAR OF CONNECTION.
THIS IS THE FINAL CALL
FOR PASSENGERS BOARDING TRAIN NUMBER 5 FOR DUNE ACRES.
PLEASE PROCEED TO GATE NUMBER 3.
WELL, THERE'S MY TRAIN, SO, UH, ENJOY THE PHOTO.
...DEPARTING FOR NEW YORK'S PENN STATION IN TEN MINUTES.
PLEASE PROCEED TO THE LOWER LEVEL TRACK 8.
THAT TABLE'S A LITTLE WARPED.
UH, SEEMS FINE TO ME.
SO WHAT DID YOU COME SEE ME ABOUT?
ONE OF YOUR GIRLFRIENDS GIVING YOU PROBLEMS AGAIN?
HA! NO.
NO, THAT WAS BRANDY,
BUT THAT GUY DOESN'T BOTHER HER ANYMORE.
YOU FIXED THAT.
IT'S POP, JACK. HE'S NOT RIGHT.
YOU MEAN ABOUT UNCLE LOU.
HE WAS THE SAME WAY AFTER THE ACCIDENT.
HE WAS SAD AND, LIKE, MAD AT THE SAME TIME,
LIKE THERE WAS SOMETHING ON FIRE INSIDE HIM.
THAT WAS DIFFERENT,
AND HE WAS WORRIED ABOUT YOU.
YOU WERE, TOO, RIGHT? YOU WERE WORRIED.
WE WERE ALL WORRIED THAT YOU WOULDN'T...
GET BETTER.
BUT I DID.
I GOT BETTER,
'CAUSE YOU SAVED ME. YOU PULLED ME OUT OF THE WATER.
YEAH, YEAH, I GOT YOU OUT.
MAN, JACK.
WE REALLY HAD SOME GOOD TIMES BACK THEN, DIDN'T WE?
JUST DOING WHATEVER WE WANTED TO DO.
I MEAN, WE WERE REALLY FREE THEN, RIGHT?
YEAH.
EVERYBODY GROWS UP, BUDDY.
YEAH.
YOU DROPPED YOUR SCARF!
IT GETS COLD!
YOU CAME ALL THE WAY HERE FOR THAT?
NOT ONLY...
YOU WHETTED MY APPETITE FOR SOME FRESH LAKE AIR.
YOU KNOW, RELIVING MY DAYS OF YORE.
DIVING FOR BURIED TREASURE?
THERE'S GOLD OUT THERE. I'M SURE OF IT.
IF YOU WANNA JOIN ME, YOU'RE WELCOME.
I MEAN, NO PRESSURE, THOUGH. I-I CAN GO ALONE!
ALL ABOARD!
1, 2, 3, 4, 5. BET YOU CAN'T BEAT THAT.
I'M NOT EVEN GONNA TRY. IT'S... UH, WOW.
MY FAMILY USED TO GO OUT ON A LITTLE FISHING BOAT
DOWN THE SHORE A BIT, EVERY SATURDAY.
AND YOU WERE YOUNG WHEN THEY DIED?
YEAH, YEAH.
BUT THEN I GOT LUCKY.
YOU KNOW, MY--MY FATHER'S BOSS AND HIS WIFE--
THEY TOOK ME IN. THEY RAISED ME,
SENT ME TO COLLEGE, LAW SCHOOL.
AND YOUR WIFE? HOW DID YOU MEET HER?
ELAINE IS THEIR DAUGHTER.
SHE'S A BIT OLDER, SO BEFORE LONG,
SHE WENT OFF TO COLLEGE.
WHEN SHE CAME BACK, I WAS 19,
WORKING FOR THE FAMILY COMPANY.
SOMETHING JUST HAPPENED.
GO ON. TRY.
ALL RIGHT.
EIGHT, NINE.
TWO, YOU CHEAT.
YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS.
DINNER'S ON ME.
(crackling
POP?
YOU GOING TO THE CLUB?
THAT BRANDY'S ON TONIGHT.
ARE YOU GOING TO THAT THING WITH UNCLE LOU?
I WAS, BUT THEN I THOUGHT, WHY?
I COULD STAY HOME TONIGHT, KEEP YOU COMPANY.
NO. GO OUT. GO TO THE CLUB. HAVE SOME FUN.
I GOT THAT NEW GAME ON Xbox, "RACCOON CITY"--
I'M NOT A CHILD, T.J.
JUST GO.
COME HERE.
YOU'RE A GOOD BOY, T.J., AND A GOOD SON.
YOUR MOTHER WOULD BE PROUD OF YOU.
COULD I HELP, POP?
I COULD FIND OUT ABOUT UNCLE LOU.
I COULD FIX EVERYTHING. YOU CAN'T.
BUT YOU SAID-- NEVER MIND WHAT I SAID.
I COULD DO IT. I SWEAR. T.J., STOP.
PLEASE.
JUST... STOP.
KNOW YOUR LIMITATIONS.
I TRY TO DO EVERYTHING RIGHT, YOU KNOW?
NEVER DRANK, NEVER SMOKED.
NEVER DATED, REALLY.
YOU WERE THE GOOD GIRL.
WENT TO COLLEGE, MET DREW.
EVERYBODY LOVED HIM, AND IT WAS PERFECT.
MY DAD FINALLY GOT TO DANCE AT A WEDDING.
THAT SOUNDS PRETTY SPECIAL.
YEAH, YEAH, IT WAS.
WE SHOULD GET THE CHECK. LET'S GET THE CHECK.
WHAT WAS IT? UM, "DIAMOND ROSE."
YEAH.
"DIAMOND ROSE."
YOU KNOW, THE BALCONY THE OTHER NIGHT,
THE PHOTO SHOP...
THAT WAS JUST A COINCIDENCE, RIGHT?
LIKE A QUIRK OF FATE. IT DIDN'T MEAN ANYTHING.
YOU KNOW, THAT'S WHAT I KEEP TELLING MYSELF.
YOU KNOW WHAT YOU SAID AT THE TRAIN STATION
ABOUT CONNECTING?
IT'S TRUE. I...
I-I-IT'S--IT'S ALWAYS BEEN HARD FOR ME.
BUT YOU MAKE ME WANNA CONNECT.
WHEN I SEE YOU, I GET THIS FEELING, THIS...
THIS SPARK THAT...
YOU'VE NEVER FELT BEFORE.
I WANT TO.
DO YOU?
YES.
I KNOW, BUT IT'S NICE...
UNCLE LOU! AUNT CONNIE!
OH, GOD.
WHAT IS HE DOING HERE?
BEATS ME. I THOUGHT THATCHER WAS COMING.
I WANTED TO SPEAK TO YOU. I-I JUST...
POP'S SAD.
HE'S NOT THE SAME. I WANT YOU TO FIX IT, UNCLE LOU.
IT'LL ALL WORK OUT, T.J. DON'T YOU WORRY.
I AM WORRIED. I'M DAMN WORRIED!
OKAY, GO INSIDE, PLEASE. I'LL BE THERE IN A MINUTE. I...
BYE, AUNT CONNIE.
LET'S TALK OVER HERE, SON.
DON'T. I'M SORRY. I...
HEY.
Is this a bad time?
UM... NO, NOT TOO BAD.
YEAH, WE CAN'T FIND THE BOOK
THE MAGIC BEDTIME BOOK.
Yeah.
IT'S THE ONE ABOUT THE GIRAFFE, AND IT'S ON--
IT'S ON THE SHELF.
OR IF NOT, IT'S ON THE CHAIR OR--OR BEHIND THE CHAIR
'CAUSE IT ALWAYS FALLS BEHIND THE CHAIR.
AH, THERE IT IS. I GOT IT. ALL RIGHT.
OKAY. GOOD.
Mommy? Wait. Can I talk to Mommy?
YES, BABY.
NIGHT, MOMMY. I LOVE YOU.
LOVE YOU, TOO, BABY.
Bye.
AND IT'S NOT UNTIL THE GIRAFFE HEARS HIS OWN SONG--
IN THE TREES, IN THE SKY--
THAT HE'S FINALLY ABLE TO DANCE.
SO IT WASN'T JUST HIS FREAKISHLY LONG LEGS
THAT WERE THE PROBLEM?
HAVE YOU, UH...
HAVE YOU EVER...
I'VE NEVER EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT IT.
HEY, MAN! IT'S RIGHT THERE!
NORTH CENTRAL LINE SERVICE
TO VERNON HILLS WITH STOPS AT RIVER GROVE...
I TOLD YOU NOT TO SEE HIM! YOU IDIOT!
WHY DID YOU GO THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE?
WHY DIDN'T YOU GO TO THE CLUB?!
DAMN IT, T.J.!
THATCHER! HOW COULD YOU BE SO STUPID?!
TAKE IT EASY. WHAT HAPPENED?
GO ON. TELL HIM. TELL HIM!
I WENT TO SEE UNCLE LOU. I-I WANTED--
OH, SPIT IT OUT. YOU WANTED TO DO WHAT?
I WANTED TO HELP FIX IT!
IT'S OKAY, T.J.
IT'S OKAY. NO, JACK, IT'S NOT OKAY.
LOU'S DEAD.
I ASKED IF HE BETRAYED US, AND HE--HE GOT MAD,
AND HE PUSHED ME.
AND WE FOUGHT. HE FELL INTO THE WATER,
AND I CLIMBED OUT AND I PULLED HIM OUT,
AND THEN HE STARTED YELLING AT ME,
SAYING MEAN THINGS, AND HE CALLED ME STUPID,
AND HE--HE SAID I WAS RETARDED.
THE COPS PULLED LOU OUT OF THE RIVER
WITH TWO BULLETS IN HIM.
WHERE'S THE GUN, T.J.?
I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING BAD.
GO GET CLEANED UP.
GO ON. GO TO BED.
I JUST WANTED TO HELP...
LIKE YOU DO, JACK. LIKE A SON'S SUPPOSED TO.
SAY NOTHING...
TO ANYONE.
YOU UNDERSTAND?
NOBODY MUST KNOW THAT T.J.'s INVOLVED IN THIS, JACK,
NOT EVEN ELAINE.
WE HAVE TO MAKE THIS ALL GO AWAY.
IF HE GOES TO PRISON...
HE'LL NEVER SURVIVE.
WE CUT A DEAL ON THE HUTCHERSON CASE,
AND I'VE GOT A STAY ON MY CORRUPTION HEARING,
SO IF YOU NEED ME TO JUMP IN AT ALL--
THINK WE'LL BE OKAY. HEY.
HEY. UH... HONEY. I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE HERE.
SARA, NICE TO SEE YOU.
HEY, LARRY.
COMING TO THE RETIREMENT PARTY?
WOULDN'T MISS IT.
GUESS I'M GONNA HAVE TO FIND A HOBBY.
I THOUGHT WE MIGHT HAVE COFFEE.
CAN'T. I GOT A MEETING,
AND THEN I HAVE AN EARLY LUNCH WITH THE ALDERMAN,
AND HE WANTS TO DISCUSS MY POLITICAL FUTURE.
WELL, H-HOW ABOUT NOW? JUST FOR FIVE MINUTES.
I JUST FEEL BAD THAT I GOT HOME SO LATE LAST NIGHT.
I WISH THAT I COULD, BABE. I DO.
I JUST-- EVERYONE'S WAITING,
AND I'LL BE HOME FOR OLLIE'S BEDTIME, ALL RIGHT?
WE'LL TALK THEN?
OKAY?
CONSTANCE, I-I'M SO SORRY.
WE ALL ARE.
UH, CAN I, UH, CAN I COME IN?
UH... M-MY SISTER'S HERE. I'M...
I'M STILL PROCESSING EVERYTHING.
OF COURSE.
LOOK, THATCHER WILL TAKE CARE OF ALL THE FUNERAL EXPENSES
AND WHATEVER YOU NEED.
DID--DID HE SEND YOU HERE TO TELL ME THAT?
YEAH.
AND ALSO, T.J. SAYS HE SAW YOU LAST NIGHT.
UH, I'VE ALWAYS LOVED THAT BOY, JACK.
WE BOTH DID.
I CAN'T IMAGINE HE WOULD--
HE DIDN'T. I KNOW HE DIDN'T.
BE PATIENT.
I'M SURE THE POLICE WILL FIND A GUN AND A SUSPECT.
AND IN THE MEANTIME,
LET'S NOT MENTION T.J., YOU KNOW?
IT'S ONLY GONNA COMPLICATE THINGS.
LOU AND I...
WOULD NEVER TURN ON THIS FAMILY.
NEVER...
UNLESS THEY TURNED ON US FIRST.
THAT'S NOT WHAT HAPPENED, CONNIE.
IT WAS A BUSINESS SITUATION. IT WAS GETTING WORKED OUT.
DON'T PUNISH T.J. JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE ANGRY AT THATCHER.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONDOLENCES.
HEY. I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR YOU COME IN.
WHAT'S THAT DOING HERE?
YOUR ASSISTANT MESSENGERED IT OVER.
I WAS THINKING OF HANGING IT AT THE OFFICE.
IT LOOKS GOOD HERE.
WELL, THAT'S NOT WHAT I GOT IT FOR.
I GOT IT FOR THE OFFICE, OKAY?
AND WHY'D YOU HANG IT UP WITHOUT EVEN ASKING ME?
I'M SORRY.
ANY MORE WORD ON LOU?
THEY HAVEN'T FOUND ANYTHING YET.
NO MURDER WEAPON, NO SUSPECT, NOTHING.
GOD, WE'RE ALWAYS RUNNING. RIGHT?
BOTH OF US.
I MISS YOU.
COMING TO BED?
SOON.
OKAY.
BABY, YOU AWAKE?
HELLO?
Sara, it's Jack.
ARE YOU... ALL RIGHT?
MY LIFE--IT'S-- IT'S SO SMALL SOMETIMES,
EVERYTHING IN IT.
BUT WITH YOU...
WITH YOU, IT STARTED TO FEEL--
THE--I DON'T KNOW THE WORD.
MAGNITUDE.
I...
I STARTED TO FEEL THE MAGNITUDE OF THINGS
IN A WAY I-I NEVER DID.
I STARTED TO FEEL LIKE I COULD IMAGINE MY LIFE
NOT THE WAY IT IS BUT...
THE WAY YOU DREAM IT.
THIS--THIS CAN'T HAPPEN.
NO, IT CAN'T.
I JUST COULDN'T LEAVE IT THE WAY IT WAS AT THE STATION.
IT JUST DIDN'T SEEM RIGHT. SO I-I CAME HERE.
I'M--I'M GLAD.
I'VE BEEN WONDERING IF YOU WERE FEELING LIKE I WAS
OR ANYTHING LIKE IT, 'CAUSE THEN MAYBE--
MAYBE I WOULDN'T FEEL SO...
OUT OF CONTROL AND CRAZY.
YOU KNOW, IT WAS SO GREAT GETTING TO KNOW YOU,
SPENDING TIME WITH YOU.
I WON'T FORGET IT.
I-I SHOULD GO.
TAKE CARE, OKAY?
HEY, THIS IS SARA. LEAVE A MESSAGE. THANKS.
Hey, baby. You there? No?
I wanna take you out to dinner tonight.
Had a good day. I'll tell you about it later.
Okay. Call me.
I NEED YOU HERE NOW, JACK. THE COPS JUST SHOWED UP.
I SENT T.J. TO THE CLUB, BUT I CAN'T STALL THEM FOR LONG.
MR. KARSTEN. HOW DO YOU DO?
I'M DETECTIVE BIRNBAUM.
THIS IS MY PARTNER, DETECTIVE CASILLAS.
NICE TO MEET YOU.
PLEASE.
MAY I OFFER YOU A SCOTCH?
DO YOU KNOW WHY WE'RE HERE, SIR?
I IMAGINE IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH LOU MROZAK.
IT'S BEEN A TERRIBLE SHOCK FOR MY WHOLE FAMILY.
YOUR SON T.J.'s BEEN IDENTIFIED AS A PERSON OF INTEREST.
AS A SUSPECT?
THAT'S ABSURD.
T.J. LOVED HIS UNCLE.
JUST WANNA TALK TO HIM, SIR. IS HE HOME?
NOT AT THE MOMENT, NO.
I'M NOT SURE WHERE HE IS.
I SUPPOSE I COULD TRACK HIM DOWN
IF IT WAS REALLY NECESSARY.
IT'S NECESSARY.
I SHOULDN'T HAVE GONE THERE. EASY, T.J.
I-I SHOULDN'T HAVE. WHY DID I GO THERE? JUST TELL ME.
JUST CALM DOWN.
I DIDN'T MEAN IT.
WHAT HAPPENED?
I CAN'T SAY. I-I CAN'T.
MNH-MNH. IT'S ME, BABE. IT'S BRANDY.
YOU CAN TELL ME ANYTHING.
YOU'RE LATE, MOMMY.
HEY, BABY.
HEY. OH.
YEAH. I... WHERE'S JANEY?
SHE LEFT. DAD'S HERE.
HE'S HAPPY. HE BROUGHT WINE.
HEY.
WHERE WERE YOU?
AT MY STUDIO.
THERE WAS NO ANSWER.
OH, I MUST HAVE LEFT THE RINGER OFF.
OH, YEAH. I EXCHANGED IT.
WENT BACK AND GOT SOMETHING BETTER.
IT'S NICE, RIGHT?
SOMETHING GOING ON?
YES.
I WAS GOING TO TAKE YOU OUT TO DINNER.
BUT IT WAS GETTING LATE, SO I TOLD JANEY TO GO HOME.
WE'LL JUST... WE'LL CELEBRATE AS A FAMILY.
CELEBRATE WHAT?
THE CASE THAT IS GONNA GET ME
ON THE FRONT PAGE OF EVERY PAPER IN ILLINOIS.
I NAIL THIS ONE, I GET BUMPED UP TO STATE'S ATTORNEY
AFTER ABRAMS RETIRES, AND THEN WE ARE OFF AND RUNNING.
I MEAN, MAYOR. SENATOR.
OBAMA DID IT. RAHM EMANUEL DID IT.
WE CAN, TOO.
WHAT KIND OF CASE?
MURDER.
ACTUALLY, INVOLVES YOUR FAVORITE PHOTO SUBJECT.
HIS BROTHER-IN-LAW FOUND DEAD LAST NIGHT,
FACEDOWN IN THE RIVER, TWO BULLETS IN HIM.
KARSTEN'S SON IS THE PRIME SUSPECT.
REALLY? I MET HIM. HE WAS AT THE GALLERY.
THE KARSTENS-- THEY HAVE TIES
TO CORRUPTION SCHEMES, TO BRIBERY,
ORGANIZED CRIME. IT'S WAY MORE THAN I REALIZED.
WHO'S THIS?
McALLISTER.
JACK McALLISTER. HE'S KARSTEN'S IN-HOUSE COUNSEL.
HE'S GONNA BE THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY AGAINST ME.
I'M GONNA CRUCIFY HIM.
HUH.
I'M GONNA GO MAKE DINNER.
GREAT.
