You're making it hard to focus.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I can't wait.
I need a nibble now.

I'm worried my proportions are off.
Oh.
Well, they feel perfect to me.
[whispers] What if Eve comes back in?
[whispers] I locked the door.
Oh my God, that's so premeditated.
I like to plan ahead.
I want to make hot oven mitt love to my wife.
Okay...

Nice swing, Maggie.
I think I'm in the bunker.
Better grab your beach towel, Maggie.
Looks like you're spending the afternoon in the sand.
It happens when you don't take a mulligan
on every shot.
No one expects you to get all the fine points of the game.
We all know you didn't grow up playing in...
where was it again, Missouri?
Mississippi.
[laughs]
Geography.
Anyhow, looks like you're going to be on this hole a while.
Mind if we play through?
Actually, I do mind.
I've got to get going since the GGA luncheon is next weekend.
Maybe you forgot since you're not hosting it this year.
I have tons to do.
Oh, don't overthink it, Mags.
A couple cases of Chardonnay and everyone will be happy.
Keep those clubs away from me.
[doorknob rattles]
Seriously.
[knocking]
Oh, uh...
Hey, Eve.
Hey, Dad.
Uh, the pool party ended so early?
Uh, no.
I was...
[phone vibrates]
I was just cold.
What's the matter honey, you sick?
No, I'm fine Mom, really.
Did you have fun?
Actually, yeah.
I met this really cool sophomore girl from NYU
and she invited me to an orientation party there.
A party in New York?
Yeah, I need to check out the social scene.
You haven't even gotten in yet.
I know, in case I do.
You're not going to a party in New York alone.
It'll be fine, I'll stay with the girls.
There's gonna be other freshmen there.
Eve, you're not going to NYU.
Get that idea out of your head.
Why not?
Because it's 3,000 miles away.
USC is right here, okay?
It's a real college campus, and...
Football games and...
Woah, have you met me?
If I have to go to another kegger and watch frat boys
flexing in their cars, I would rather kill myself.
Hey, don't say that!!!
Don't get sucked in.
She's just being dramatic, she'll get over it.
Yeah, but maybe we should just let her go.
You're always in New York for work,
you can check in on her.
I'm in New York enough to know that Eve's not ready for it.
There's like a thousand bars in a four-block radius around NYU.
Yeah, well you and I both know you only need one bar
if you're gonna have a problem.
She's looking a little thin.
Do you think she's backsliding?
I think we oughta keep an eye on it,
and that'll be easier if she's closer to home.
[phone vibrates]
Sorry, I... I have to...

Hey. Yes.
[whispers] You don't understand.

It's fine, I'll handle it.
I'll handle it.

Loving the in-home styling, Mags.
We can relax, have some champagne.
Ah, fills the nights when the hubby's away.
Besides, salons can be so "Real Housewife-y."
I'm happy to pay extra
to not have Ruthie Dunbar gossip about my extensions.
I mean, I'm trying, but all she sees is a grasping hick
who grew up in a double-wide.
But I will get my chance to play through with this luncheon.
[light knocking]
Mom?
Not now, Buck.
But Dad's not here, I need help with my math quiz.
This is my time, Buck.
Your dad will be home tomorrow.
And close the door please.
Thanks sweetie.
Mags.
Chill.
It's going to be beautiful.
Kids, your father's home.

Hi, honey, I missed you.
Hey hon.

How was your trip?
A few issues, nothing I couldn't handle.
Oh, nice hair.
Hey Dad!

Kourtney.
Hello?
Hi Kourtney.
Hi, Sophie Hathaway from Oceanside Essence.
Checking in to see how you're enjoying your starter kit.
Okay.
We decided not to use it.
Okay, well if you change your mind,

No, thank you, Kourtney.
Mom...
Mom.
I got in... to NYU!
[screaming excitedly]
[laughing]
Oh!
This is amazing.
So, can I go to New York for the orientation party?
It's this weekend, Mom.
Eve, you heard what your dad said.
Yeah, but I hadn't gotten in then.
You really wanna go?
Yes, and it's only for the weekend,
and I feel like I deserve a reward
after all the hard work it took.
The SATs, the ACTs, and I found a cheap ticket.
Okay, all right, Madame Debate Team.
All right.
I'll tell your dad.
[squeals] Thank you, thank you...
I love you too.
Mwah.
Thank you.
[exhales]
[whispers] Yes, I understand that.
But we had this conversation.
I told you this kind of business...
I'm waiting to show you something.
How long are you gonna be in your office?
Uh, yeah, just a sec.
[whispers] Look, I'm getting the money.

I just, I need a little more time.
[phone vibrates]
[whispers] I'm getting the money.
Mark Hathaway, leave a message.
Mark, Honey.
I let Eve go to New York.
It really means a lot to her and I hope you're not mad.
No, that won't be necessary.
I will be in LA next week.
You'll get your money.
Okay.
Fine. Yes.
Yes. I will.
Fine.
Finally, come look.
The party planner sent me a picture.
Ho!
What's the budget on this thing?
My budget is whatever it takes to make Ruthie Dunbar
feel like a loser, and raise money for at-risk teens.
Okay, yes, both good causes.
But um, do we need all this?
You've been travelling constantly,
I know that means a lot of sales.
Nobody can resist you.
Maggie?
Yes?
You know there's nothing I wouldn't give
for you and the kids, but we need to cut back.
No, not for this month.
This is too important.
The GGA luncheon's gonna be held at our house.
I'm hosting.
This is a really big first for us.
Yes sir, that's right.
That means you're gonna be
right there beside me eating lunch. Got it?
Got it.
Did that taste like collagen?
Eh, a little bit.
[laughs]
No, I'm sorry.
My... my head is in my work.
I'm about as sexy as an adjustable
standing desk right now.
I'm gonna put it in your planner
'cause we're getting close to two months.
Well, I'm glad you're on top of it.
Someone has to be on top of someone.

This is the property?
Yes, this is the property.

Does that make you the real wife,
because you made the real dinners?
FYI, he liked Super Suppers because it was zero points.
He was dieting?
He scanned every barcode.
Well, maybe he just felt more comfortable with me
indulging his appetite.
Well, maybe he felt more comfortable with me
indulging his neurotic need to be under 185 pounds.
But he liked his bourbon, I'm guessing that didn't change.
He didn't drink with me.
I find it hard to believe that Mark could be married
to somebody he couldn't drink with.
I had some problems with alcohol
and it was because of him
or thanks to him that I found the will to quit.
That's it... you don't want to hear this,
it's too much information.
TMI is the foundation of our relationship, so...
Go ahead.
My first husband died suddenly.
He was hit by a car on his bike.
Eve was just a baby, and... and I was a baby too,
and I went from having a family to being incredibly lonely.
So, I started drinking all the time.
Just sipping booze out of my water bottle all day.
One day I went to the beach with, uh, Eve,
and my water bottle, and I passed out in the chair.
And I woke up to screams and people shouting, and...
Eve was being carried away by a riptide.
Oh my God, that's terrible.
And I was too drunk to swim out after her.
I just saw her little head bobbing until she disappeared.
Until this surfer dude pulled her to shore.
And I will never forget the image of the most handsome guy
dripping wet in his pink bathing suit with whales on them,
handing me back my daughter.
Mark rescued Eve.
Yep.
Then he saved me.
I bought him those trunks with the whales.
It's so good that we're... that we're airing it out,
that we're processing it, you know?
Because maybe this'll help us move into a new chapter.
I... I like the old chapter,
the one where I had a husband and was rich.
Really, did you?
Because you look possessed.
I think I look pretty.
The dog is cute.
[sighs]
I'm itchy in here.
Could you do a pastel omelet?
Pastel?
What's that made out of, Easter eggs?
[sighs]
Never mind.
Could I get a pair over easy on a raft with two logs?
You got it.
And for you?
I'm good, thank you.
What the heck is that?
On toast with sausages.
My mother waitressed at a place like this her whole life,
so I speak diner.
We're short right now, hon, if you wanna apply.
No thanks.
This is the fate I spent my life escaping.
My mother was a miserable person.
She hated her job, she hated her life,
and frankly, she hated me.
And I've been scared of becoming her my whole life.
So Mark saved you too, huh?
Yeah, I guess he did.
And in return, I built him a beautiful life,
gorgeous house, two great kids,
and this is what I have to show for it, so.
You have to go back to Greenwich with the kids.
Grace is going to be at school.
She doesn't, she doesn't want to talk to me anymore.
And Buck, I mean, I'm sure he doesn't want
to move with me into some dump.
I mean, where would I take him anyway?
Why didn't they take your house, too?
I don't have a house.
I have a rent controlled cottage in LA.
What about the cabin?
You could live in the cabin.
You live in the cabin.
I would live in the cabin.
I think the cabin has a lot of potential.
But I... no, I have to be in LA with Eve for her treatment.
And I have enough for a few months now.
Thanks to you.

Give me a double order
of chicken fried special for takeout, please.
Sorry, 86 on the chicken.
What, you're out?
We still got fish sticks.
My table doesn't want fish sticks.
Maggie, every Tuesday, at the end of your shift,
you ask for a takeout of chicken.
There's no one in your section.
I know it's for you.
So do you still have chicken, or not?
We do, but I'd like to hear you say it.
Say what exactly?
You like my specials.
I'd like to get into his specials.
You've been working here for a couple months now,
and you've never said anything nice.
That's why you get the tiniest of tips.
Enough.
You need to learn to be nice.
You can't admit that you like anything here.
But you do.
You love my cooking.
It's fried chicken, it's not going to get a Michelin star.
Which you're not getting till you say something.
Okay, God, I, I, I like your handwriting
on the specials board.
It's... optimistic how your Gs go up.
Thank you.
So does that mean you'll have a drink with me?
[sighs]
You look like you could use one.
Quinn, I look like the mother of a high school student
and a college student
who's got loans bigger than the national debt
who doesn't talk to me anymore,
and I don't have time for a drink.
Got that, thus the urgent need for the takeout box
of fried chicken, which you're not getting till you say yes.
Plus, look, I don't have a bikini wax,
a pedicure, a roots touch-up, or underwear that doesn't come
from a big box store, all of which are required for me
to have a drink with a man.
Even with you.
All right if I take that as a yes...
Or not?

I'm sorry, Sylvie, I... I'm sorry I didn't, uh...
I don't have anywhere else to go.
Uh... I'm in trouble.
[phone ringing]
Hello?
[whispers] Maggie, he's here.
Who?
Mark.
Mark? What is he doing there?
He looks terrible.
He looks like he hasn't taken a shower in days, he's...
Sylvie, you have to call the police.
[whispers] I'm terrified.
I don't know if I can.
Sylvie, dial 911.
You cannot let him hide out in your house.
If you let him stay there, you'll be an accomplice.
Yeah, but if I call the police, then I'm gonna be the one
responsible for putting him in prison.
I will dial... I will dial 911.
What is your address?
Okay.
1421 Brenwick Avenue.
Okay, is that Venice? Sylvie?
Shit, he just bolted.
Are you sure?
Yeah. I am.
What do you think he wanted?
I don't know.
Yeah, I, I've, I, I, I, I gotta go, okay?
Sylvie, wait!
Sylvie.
You can't stay here, Mark.
Why would you even come back after what you did?
What, did you think that I just... would just take you in?
I don't want to drag you into this, Sylvie.
That's why I've been on the street.
Stop it, stop it, stop it, okay?!
I just, I just got off the phone with Maggie.
What?
Yes.
We became friends
After you disappeared.
And I know everything.
I'm so sorry.
I never meant to cause any of you all this pain.
I did everything I did just so we could afford to be together.
What?
You lied to me.
I know.
You know? No, you don't know.
You lied.
Our entire relationship, you lied to me.
No, you... you have to go.
[phone ringing]
Hi, this is Sylvie.
Please leave a message...
Something's wrong.
You have a warrant against you.
I could go to jail, who's going to take care of Eve?
Have you ever once thought about how this is even affecting her?
Just one night.
And if you, if you help me get to New York,
then I can arrange everything.
I will take care of you and Eve.
I will make everything okay.
How could you possibly make it all okay after what you've done?
I trusted you with my whole heart.
You were my whole life.
I wanted to tell you so many times...
[cries]
Oh, but I was in too deep.
I... I married too young, I...
you have to believe that I loved you.
I mean you can't pretend to have this life that we've got.
You can stay for one night on the couch.
I hate you for what you did to us,
and I hate... I hate missing you.

Hi, this is...
S'up, buttercup?
Problems?
No. Nothing.

Not yet, but I'm working on it.

You owe me.
Thanks.
♪
[knocking at door]
Maggie?
What are you doing here?
Buck went to see Grace for the weekend,
so I used up my old miles and took the first flight out.
You know, I wanted to come
and make sure you were okay, after last night.
That's great...
And to be here, you know, in case he comes back.
You didn't have to do that, it wasn't necessary.
Oh, you know what they say about rats.
They follow their old trails
until you plug up those holes.
Nice place. It's adorable.
[whispers] Sylvie, am I interrupting?
Did you get some last night, sister?
Maggie.
This is so screwed up on so many levels.
Maggie, this is not what it looks like.
He slept on the couch.
I knew something was off when we spoke on the phone last night.
You know, I was actually worried about you.
I thought maybe he was intimidating you.
So I got here very early this morning,
and that's when I saw him in the window.
And you.
Like the perfect couple.
I mean, I couldn't believe it, so I just...
sat there, debating.
Debating what?
If I should call the cops.
No, you're not gonna do that, Maggie, there's not...
I'm not talking to you, son of a bitch.
Or did you forget who I am?
I'm not Sylvie, I'm the other one,
the one who'll never forgive you.
Ever.
What did you think I was gonna do, Mark?
Did you even think about the fact that you left us
with nothing?
No money, no clue, no concern for any of the damage
and humiliation you created?
We couldn't even buy groceries.
And all this time, I'm thinking, why?
Why? Why would you do that?
And I know why.
'Cause you didn't have the balls to look me in the face
and tell me you were screwing this hemp doormat.
Excuse me?
Shut up!
[police sirens]
Oh, my God.
You called the cops.
Well, so much for debating.
I guess you're not the only actor in the family.
Mr. Hathaway.
You have elected to not have representation.
But you have a statement?
Yes, Your Honour.
I, uh, I'm not here to defend myself.
I'm guilty.
I'm looking for leniency from the court.
I would also like the court to recognize
that I have been a devoted father,
and supported these two families with a full heart.
I met my first wife when I was very young,
and I made a terrible mistake.
What are you mad at me for?
You didn't even apologize.
[scoffs]
I have nothing to apologize for.
How about for harbouring our fugitive husband,
or lying to me, or... or betraying me?
I didn't tell you, because I knew you would do
exactly what you did.
And now he's gone for I don't know how long.
Does that make you happy?
Yes. That's where he belongs.
Well, it doesn't make me happy.
That's because you're a broken person, Sylvie.
That's why Mark scooped you up in the first place,
because you're low hanging fruit to feed his giant ego.
And you, Maggie? What... what are you?
You are shallow. You are vindictive.
And all you care about is revenge.
He should pay for what he did.
He screwed over everyone he ever met, or screwed.
Because you pressured him!
You needed to whitewash all that trailer park.
It was never enough.
I shared my money with you after you took my whole life.
My husband, my house, my kids.
Oh, I don't think I get the credit for that, Maggie.
I think you did a pretty good job
of losing your kids yourself.
And your daughter ended up in that clinic
because she had such a strong, supportive mother
she felt that she could count on?
Don't go there.
Or because her mother is an emotional cripple
who let her only daughter drown
and used her pathetic story to steal my husband.
I don't know how you can even live with yourself.
[toilet flushes]
Mark Hathaway, please rise.
You have been found guilty of three counts of embezzlement,
grand larceny, and fraud.
And sentenced to two years.

I... I don't want to be with him anymore.
Wait, what? I get that.
But he could come back and visit sometime.
I don't... I don't think that's a good idea.

What is he gonna do without anyone?
This is not about his problems anymore.
It's not.
It's about you and me.

Wait.
Maggie?
Can you stay?
[whispers] Sylvie, I'm so sorry.
No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
But you need to know
that I didn't sleep with Mark that night.
When he went to prison
I was hanging on by a thread.
Because there's always been this void.
When my husband died, I filled it with booze,
and then... when I stopped drinking,
I filled it with Mark.
And I wasn't going to let you take that away from me.
And when Eve ran away...
I swear that if she makes it, that I will show her...
I will show her that she's enough.
That we are enough.
Hey, there's something that I want to tell you.
Remember that Mark left those files at the cabin
about his business?
Yeah.
So, I did a self-taught accounting class,
and I learned how to analyze those invoices
and bank statements, and you know what?
What?
There's money missing.
What? How so?
In his profit and loss statements,
he claims that the company was operating in a deficit,
but that's not true.
A year ago, you couldn't read a credit card statement.
I think Mark was making a profit.
He was making all these cash payments to a Hayden Shipping.
Hayden is my maiden name.
Buck! How'd you get here?
I... took the bus.
Hi.
How is she?
We don't know yet.
Hey, sweetie.
How much profit?
$3 million twenty-seven thousand give or take.
What?
Yes.
Mrs. Hathaway.
Yes?
Eve's awake.
You can go see her now.
But she's had renal failure.
She's going to need dialysis, and she's going to need it soon.
Hey. Hi, baby.
Where's Dad?
Is he here?
He's not here, but we're gonna get you better.
We're going to get you on dialysis.
Dad didn't show.
What?
She talked to Dad.
When?
She visited him in jail before he got out.
They were supposed to meet.
Where?
I don't know.
[weakly] The cabin.
He said he'd take me on vacation at his cabin.
But he's not coming, Mom.
You're right.
He's a liar.
Shh, it's okay.
You don't worry about that.
You just get better, okay?
I really want to get better, Mom.
I know you do.
I can't afford dialysis, so if there's money,
we need to find it now.
I know.
Right before Mark got arrested,
he told me that he would take care of me
when he got back from New York, so maybe...
maybe that money is at the cabin.
Where no feds could ever find it
because the cabin was under my name.
We should get out there before he does.
I can't. I have to stay with Eve.
I'll stay with her.
I can take care of my sister.
You think we beat him here?
I think we did.
Woah.
This looks a hell of a lot better than it did before.
I call it Roche Bobois meets hillbilly.
I don't know where the money is.
I mean, I've scrubbed every corner and cabinet of this place,
and the only thing green I've seen is mold.
I just, I don't think the money's here.
It could be anywhere.
I mean, it could be in an offshore account,
if it even exists.
Why would he come back here?
I don't know, but if he does,
we could always zip tie him to the bed
and torture him until he tells us where the money is.
[sighs]
That's so tempting.
[laughs]
So tempting.
I have something to tell you.
I'm scared to ask. What is it?
I got some.
What?
That hunky cook from the diner?
Yeah.
We had hot, unwaxed hipster sex.
What?
And it was spectacular.
What is hipster sex?
That's amazing.
Don't act so surprised.
I... I'm not surprised,
I just, I just thought you were hung up on your old life.
I mean, you won't even get rid of that creepy painting.
I hate that painting too.
I hate it.
I mean, I look insane.
Finally, you admit it.
You look a million times better.
Why in God's name did I even keep this painting?
'Cause you liked the old chapter
where you were rich and you had a husband.
[sighs]
Okay, what are you doing?
I am ending this chapter.
[gasps]
[laughs] Oh, my God!
Let me try.
Please, please let me try!
Okay.
Ahh!
Get her, get her!
Oh...
What is it?
Oh my God.
What is it?
Oh my God! What is that?
[screaming and laughing]
The money was there!
Oh my God!
I've never seen so much money.
Look at all this money!
We're loaded!
We're rich!
You were right!
[screaming excitedly]
Mark?
Maggie?
Sylvie?
Uh, you... you live here?
No house, remember?
What are you doing here?
Same boat.
You know, I just needed somewhere to gather my thoughts,
take a breath, figure out what's next.
There was a painting in that room.
Um, where is it?
Oh, the portrait?
I thought that was very sweet that you had kept it,
but I... I took it down.
Oh... No, I... I like it, Maggie.
I still like it.
Where is it?
I burnt it.
What?
You did what?
Cut the crap, Mark.
We found the money.
It's a little over $3 million.
I think it's fair that we divide it in three ways.
But then who pays for what?
Are we splitting Eve's treatment?
Yeah, or...
College tuitions?
Or are you just gonna pay for those?
Shouldn't I have a say?
Since I'm the one that earned the money?
You? You earned it?
No, you stole it, Mark.
You're a thief.
You take and you take.
And you take.
[bag rustles]
Could you help me with this?
Gladly.
To be honest, it doesn't seem fair that I'm paying for half,
out of my one third.
Ooh, you should've thought of that
before you decided to have two wives.
What she said,
because you really should be paying for all of it.
You know what?
Forget it.
You're not getting a penny.
You're lucky we didn't call your parole officer.
I guess I'm a pretty lucky guy.
Not so lucky.
You get the couch.
C'mon, c'mon.
[knocking]
Can't start the car without this.
Oh, you lied again.
[laughs]
You are so predictable.
You... you are.
I mean, did... did you even care about Eve?
Of course I do.
I have every intention of paying for her...
You always have the best intentions,
until you do the worst imaginable thing.
You send me the bill, I will pay for everything,
I swear.
Oh, sure.
[laughs]
You... you are never gonna change.
Come with me.
You know I love you.
You are my real wife.
Consider that a divorce.
We're making the decisions now, and we're doling out the scraps.
You can't just take all the money.
This is for your ticket to who-the-hell-cares.
And this, this is for your year's rent.
And this is for the time you think of calling us
for money or anything else.
That's your going away money, forever.
If you go away in the next 90 seconds.
Or else what?
Or else I call the cops.
You're going away, and it's our decision this time.
