- [Narrator] Previously on "A House Divided."
- Just do what I'm asking you to do, just one past.
Come on, clean it up.
- I gotta Cam on board.
Can't keep it from my mama.
Thin ice as it is. - You seem to have lost touch
with the ideals. - Ready to put in that work?
- I'm ready for whatever.
- Values. - Keep your boots on.
- The heritage of your homeland.
- You had to eat yours and everybody else's too.
[Cam grunting] [Cam yelling]
- I may be able to help you.
But I'm going to need some assurances from you.
- I need that money. - They're playing you.
They ain't gonna give you shit.
You're lucky they don't try to kill you
to cover any of this up. - I got the codes.
- That was a little too easy.
Something's not right.
[explosive blasting]
- Still have work to do.
Carissa still gotta go.
- Have you seen Dante? - No.
- [Stephanie] Summer's gotta go and my cousin.
- I'm not here to hurt you.
If I was, you would already be dead.
- I wanna spill blood.
- Just say the word.
[lively seductive music]
- Come on, open it up, [indistinct].
Come here.
I got something for you.
Come here.
Got your two favorite things.
I got pussy and I got [indistinct]
So, come get it.
Bring that ass over here.

- Carissa.
- You ready to put that work in?
- Well, just make sure I'm taken care of
and I'll take care of whatever you need.
- Put your fucking boots on.

[phone ringing continues]
- I know it's you, eyeball.
My Eileen.
You know you brought it on yourself.
There can only be one heir, it has to be done.
Somebody didn't do their job.
- You outta your mind, Brittany?
No, are you outta your fucking mind?
- Cam, come on, this is like two transactions.
You acting like he a damn kingpin.
He's not. - After everything
my family's been through,
after everything they're still going through,
you ask me to do this.
- I really need this.
I'm the mother of your child and this concerns your child.
- How does it involve my child exactly?
In, in, in what way?
Is it me laundering money for some criminal?
And you won't even tell me why.
Is that how?
Do you have any idea what the implications of this are?
Do you? - Look.
If you don't help me, we could be in serious danger.
- We?
I don't even know these people.
- You don't get it.
Me is we.
We are forever connected.
Intertwined forever.
What did you do?
[menacing musical sting]
It's not anything I can speak of.
[man screaming]
I made some mistakes, I'll say that.
I just really need you to help me with this.
He's not gonna go away and it is not gonna be good
if he doesn't get what he wants.
But I got it all taken care of though.
All he has is like a couple of cash food trucks,
couple of strip joints.
Maybe we can clear this up so easy for him.
- Keno was right about you.
He said to never get mixed up with you.
Said there was something about you,
something that scared him.
Couldn't find the words, wasn't congruent,
but he, he knew.
I didn't listen, I got
caught up in everything that you are.
Wrapped up in your sauce.
And now Keno is not here because of it.
[Brittany snickering]
- Keno.
Keno is gone because Keno was a piece of shit.
Oh yeah.
He tried to have your child aborted.
And he tried to choke me out, yet,
oh we are here once again.
You speaking on him like he was some kinda saint.
When you gonna wake up?
Mm?
When you gonna realize that you were wrong
about Keno? - No.
I wasn't wrong about Keno, I was wrong about you.
And he was right.
And now I'm stuck here with you.
- Stuck? - Yeah.
Stuck.
- I was minding my business, doing my job.
Then you waltz over and stick your dick inside of me.
I was minding my fucking business.
But now you're the victim.
You need to live with your decisions, Mr. Boss Man.
Now, I'm gonna need you to take care of this.
And I need it now.
I'm not about to ask you for no favors.
Not about to beg you.
Or just maybe you can learn it the hard way,
like bitch-ass Keno.
[door shutting]
- So you gonna eat that, or?
- I've been staring at it for the past hour.
- Yes. - Trying to work on
my will power.
Mind exercises.
This plant-based thing can get pretty hard 'cause the body
wants the protein.
- Let me make this easier for you.
My body gets all the protein.
- Yes, it does [chuckles].
- It's cold.
Can we get back to my issues? - Sure.
- You sure? - Whenever you're ready.
- Appreciate it.
I think Dante, I, I'm pretty sure
Dante has either been kidnapped or killed.
And since it wouldn't be easier to kill him,
I'm hoping that it's choice number one.
- Oh, when's the last time you heard from him?
Have you tried to track his cellphone.
He left it at the house.
But he had a burner that he would call me from.
He left his trainer to go talk with Stephanie
to get the codes for the crypto drive,
but something went bad.
Something went really, really bad.
Something doesn't smell right.
It stinks. - Okay.
Well, I'll do some digging.
- I need you to go to the Sanders estate.
Ask some questions.
- I don't think I'll be allowed on that property.
- Do whatever the fuck you gotta do.
Say whatever the fuck you gotta say.
But get me those answers, counselor.
You're the only one I know that can do this discreetly.
But if not, I'm more than happy to do it my way.
- I'll see what I can do.
But I'm not making any promises.
- No, I know, no, no, no.
I want it done, and now.
It's a list of questions.
Get me answers, counselor.
- Brianna Mayfield.
- I have no idea who the hell
you're talking about. - No?
She's the female who is responsible for shooting Torrance.
- Shit. - Mm-hm.
Oh shit, what?
- It ain't good. - Her body
just washed up ashore.
She was suffocated and apparently dumped.
They're processing her body now.
Now I'm your lawyer.
So, it's safe to talk to me.
Now, is there anything else that I need to know?
If there is, you need to tell me.
So I can protect you, Carissa.
Was it Sammy, mm?
Did he do this?
- Yes.
Yeah, he abducted her, but no, it was, it was me.
[Torrance screaming]
That was me.
Breathe.
Another example of the sacrifice I made.
Believing, thinking this was my family.
- This just gets darker and darker every day.
- How much time do we have before they figure out
if they found anything?
- I don't know, depends on the workload, it could be a week,
could be up to six weeks.
It just depends.
- We don't have much time then.
- Did you use your bare hands?
- Yes, yes I did.
I'd do it again without hesitation
to protect whatever I love.
- Okay.
I'll let you know when I have some answers.
In the mean time, we're going to need to get you
into a emergency safe place so we can protect you
and your money.
- Get me those answers, counselor.
- What's the update on the lawsuit?
Nah, no, no, no.
We cannot close a deal on that bank merger officially.
And I want my cut up front, and I want you to leave
enough funds so that Summer could do what she needs to do.
Hey, hey!
Don't make me have to go ballistic on you,
and come down there.
Hate you all blood-sucking lawyers, man,
worse than Mondays, make it happen!
[door opening]
I need something stronger.
[door creaking]
- My father.
You have certainly gone downhill.
I could smell you before I even saw you, you reek.
- How you get in here?
- I hired every single security guard
that works in this place.
Have you ever sent a Christmas gift or a toy to their kids
on their birthdays?
I think not.
I handled all that for you.
No one would dare prevent me from entering my home.
- Yeah well, today they all fired, today.
- Ah you ain't firing nobody.
Just keep swilling 'em back.
Look, I only came here because I need answers.
- I don't owe you no explanations.
You dead to me. - Yeah well,
certainly smell dead, but dead you are not.
Nevertheless, I said I need answers.
And it would behoove you to tell me what I want to know
considering myself, Auntie Mae, and Cameran Jr.
are in control of the majority of the assets of our family.
And, wait for it, the rebirth bank deal will go through.
Your little bandaid lawsuit only caused
a slight delay, Daddy.
- See this cigar, smuggled in ever so discreetly.
It looks good, smells good, but in reality,
it don't belong here.
Just like you, your brother, and Auntie Mae.
And I'm gonna make it my business to get rid of each of you
one by one.
- [Stephanie] I'm gonna ask you this one time.
- What? - Where is my Auntie Mae?
[Cameran laughing]
I know you know, Daddy.
[Cameran laughing]
- Oh, you just don't get it, do you?
[Stephanie chuckling]
- I guess I don't, do I?
So, why don't you let me in on the joke?
And tell me. - Auntie Mae had to learn,
just like all y'all got to learn
who's the boss of this family.
And you don't ever bite the hand that feeds you.
- Say more, Daddy.
And what happens, what happened?
- Rebellious dogs get put to sleep [snickers].
- You wouldn't, you didn't.
What happens if I don't believe you.
- Oh, you, you, you could take it as a souvenir.
Or better yet, reminder.
- Would you be so damn reckless-
- I don't give a fuck!
I'm untouchable.
I'm outside.
- I'll be back, Father.
[Stephanie breathing shallowly]
- You lucky you my daughter.
All y'all lucky!
- Pastor, I don't know why
we keep coming to this marriage councilor crap.
I mean, it don't never work.
She'll never listen. - No, no, no.
See, my brother,
now see that is what the problem is, right there.
See, the Bible says to hear council,
to receive instructions,
so that thou may be wise [indistinct].
There are many devices in a man's heart.
Nevertheless, the council of the Lord,
that shall stand.
- Preacher, what the hell is that supposed to mean?
- Now see.
Love corrects.
Now see, what I am trying to do, is I am trying to help
you save yourself from sending this beautiful woman
gone into the hands of a strong man.
But your stubbornness, that is gonna be your downfall.
- Oh, so it's back to being my fault.
You always taking her side.
What kind of counseling is this anyway?
- Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft.
And stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.
Because thou has rejected the word of the Lord, my God.
He not just your wife, but He, has also rejected thee.
Say the word.
I really wish you would.
- Know what?
You're sick.
I'm outta here. - What is wrong with you?
I'm sorry.
- See y'all at the divorce party.
[phone vibrating]
- Hey, look, I'm gonna need a little bit more time
getting that done.
I'm getting some pushback.
- No, no you ain't got no more fucking time.
I need this shit done now.
Your grandmother is a very lovely lady.
A very lovely lady. - Yo, yo, yo, yo.
Just be cool.
Be cool, I'm gonna figure it out.
Now, if you find that you can't stay patient,
then me and you might find ourselves
on opposite ends of this deal.
- In the Bible it says
there is a time to kill and a time to heal.
- [Dolan] So, it was this guy and another guy?
You saw a big guy?
- Yeah that's him.
Motherfuckers came outta nowhere.
I never seen them before. - How long were they
chasing you?
- How should I know?
All I know is if they weren't, I'd be dead right now.
- Now, the DA says that he's not gonna charge you
as long as you remain cooperative.
So, I'm gonna need you to keep your ears open
and your eyes open.
We have to find out why this guy was following you.
Who sent him.
I believe he may have gotten hired by your family
to protect you.
Now we know why the Nigerians were after you,
but we gotta figure out this part of the puzzle.
- I don't know.
He said something about my sister.
- [Dolan] Sister.
- This shit is fucked up, this shit is so fucked up.
You know who killed Triva yet?
- She was stabbed in the showers.
Where there are no cameras.
No one in the jailhouse is talking.
Whoever did this, she has scared everybody up in the inside.
But don't worry, we're still looking.
Be patient.
You will get justice for your friend.
[Torrance laughing]
- Justice?
That's funny.
You know, all I ever wanted to do was play ball.
Since I was little, that's all I ever knew.
My mom, she never missed a game.
She was always right there court side cheering for me.
My biggest supporter and my biggest fan.
You know that when she died,
it was like this, this huge, dark storm
just took over and engulfed my entire family.
Shit is crazy.
I don't recognize any of these people anymore.
- It was a lot more than a dark storm, son.
And it has effected a lot more families than yours.
But you're doing the right thing.
- The right thing.
Yeah, I really hope so.
I really do.
Have you heard from him, has he reached out?
- Nope.
- Well, when he surfaces again, we will be there.
We got you.
- Right.
We'll see.
Detective Dolan.
[metal scraping]
- [Captive] Help!
Help! - Damn.
- What is this about?
What did I do?
I sold pills on the side but I ain't into no heavy shit.
What is the issue here?
[chain rattling]
- Shut the fuck up.
So we found out that you,
his trainer, was the last one seen with Dante West.
And now, we know y'all had beef.
Over them pills. - It was nothing.
It was a few hundred bucks.
And we squashed it.
[captor cackling]
- Squashed it, squashed it?
Then, ah, why is he missing?
- Missing, I don't know shit about that.
What would I have to do with that?
- That's what I'm trying to find out.
[hits landing]
[captive grunting]
- Are you crazy!
I don't know anything.
- Not convinced. - No.
[captive grunting]
Please.
Let me go. - What, babe?
Let me go, let me go? - Please.
- Let me go, let me go, let me go?
[captive grunting]
Just tell me what happened to Dante.
Tell me. - I don't know.
I don't know, I don't know.
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, please.
Have to believe me, I don't know.
I don't know. - Know what?
I actually do believe you.
But this is just too much fucking fun.
- [Captive] No, no, no, no.
[blow landing]
- Home run, motherfucker.
[somber music] [chain rattling]
[somber music continues]
- Dolan. - Don't you dare tell me
you have the news that I think you have.
- Gonna wanna get yourself
the biggest Taco Tuesday margarita once you hear this.
[Dolan squealing]
- [Dolan] Tell me!
[somber music continues]
[Torrance speaking softly]
- I know if she was here, she would know exactly what to do.
- Don't worry, she's right here with you.
- What would you do.
- I always knew you were different
from your family's reputation.
Your heart, it's different.
You just gotta stand on your own two feet.
- I think I'm falling in love with you.
- You know I've been waiting for you to catch up with me.
- As long as your heart stays pure,
I'll always be right by your side.
Torrance Sanders. - I like that.
[mellow music]
[mellow music continues]
- Well, well, well.
Welcome back, sister.
- Just love it when you boss up on his ass like that.
- Yeah, well sometimes, takes a real man to set the tone.
[mellow music continues]
- Why did you leave me here?
With all these leaches, scoundrels?
You raised a house full of heathens.
- Why, Cameron, just tell me why.
And were is Peter, Cameron?
He was your best friend. - You never listen to me.
You always treated me like I was a failure.
Always pointing out my mistakes.
Always talking about what I could've done better
instead of what I did right.
You drove me away, fuck me once a week,
you pushed me to her.
I'm a alpha male.
- Oh boy, just like always, me, me, me.
The poor victim.
Excuses, excuses.
I hate you for what you did to our family, Cameron Sanders.
You need to get our bank back.
- I'm working on it, moving swiftly.
- Move more swiftly.
- I hate you.
For dying.
- Night, ladies.
Oh, what was that you were asking me?
- You like to make a difference.
- I truly believe I can make a difference in people's lives.
Like, I have my own money.
My platform is pure.
I just wanna do my mother proud.
And bring some honor back to my family's legacy.
Who knows, maybe we can take it all away, take that train
all the way to the Oval Office.
- Hey, whatever you decide to do, I've got your back
all the way to the top. - But good business.
None of my father's shenanigans.
- A toast, to Cameron Sanders, Jr. for congress.
[glass clinking]
[dramatic foreboding music]
- [Narrator] Next time on "A House Divided."
- I figured we could do a little exchange.
- I can take you out in seconds.
- Now is the time for me to serve the people of this state.
[crowd cheering]
- We can start planning to move you to a place
where the food and dancing are good.
I mean, the English, not so much.
- And you can do that?
- He went to the police and he told them
our business. - I have enough money
to bury you and your family so deep,
you'll never see the sun again.
You don't want that, do you?
