"Previously on "666 Park Avenue"" "Hello Sasha." "I missed you dad." "I missed you too." "What did you do to me damn it?" "My computer freezes, the pencils break, my mind goes blank." "You write when you're with me." "You know you want me." " Take her downstairs." " No." "No!" "It was 1927." "My name was Libby Griffith." "I was in her body." "Help!" "It's no acident that I came here, is it?" " No!" " Help me." "Mm." "How'd you sleep?" "Not well." "As you could imagine." "Mm-hmm." "What do you have up your sleeve?" "Why is it so important I stick around this morning?" "Soon all will be revealed." "Gavin, you know I hate surprises." "You hate when people are late." "You hate traffic." "You hate when I put the empty milk container back in the fridge." "But you most certainly do not hate surprises." "You know I love you, I would do anything for you?" "Of course I do." "Like everything else, we will get through this together." "Hey." "Hey." "What you looking at?" " Frank Sullivan." " No comment." "Uh, Frank Sullivan the, uh, city councilman, right?" "Yeah." "Not for long." "Look." "He just got busted sleeping with his 18-year-old intern." "Sounds like a great guy." "What's that look for?" "Well, you know the Dorans' party tonight?" "Mm-hmm." "It's a little bit more than a party." "It's a fund-raiser." "For what?" "Gavin wants to announce my run for Sullivan's council seat." "When did this happen?" "Well, he called while you were out." "I guess he said there's, you know, gonna be pressure on him to resign, and when he does, there's gonna be a special election." "Oh, well, when would that be?" "A few months." "Maybe sooner." "Oh, my God, Henry." "That's great." "Things are gonna change." "Things already are changing." "Hey, you seem great." "You seem back to your old self." "You mean... for someone who spent two days in the nuthouse?" "Yes, for a crazy person, you seem great." "I love you, Henry." "And I won't let anything come between us, ever." "You ready?" "Thank you." "Does she know I'm coming?" "Your mother's emotions on this will be complex." "I'm not sure even she knows what to expect." "And my first priority is protecting her." "I thought you said that she wanted to see me." "Well, she does." "But more than that, I believe she needs to see you." "She has questions that she deserves answers to." "Are you happy I'm back?" "Of course." "I'm sorry." "I'm sure you are." "Well, whatever I have to do to make things right..." "I want to." "Let's just see how this goes with your mother, and then we'll take it from there." "All right?" "All right." "Sasha?" "I'm sure you both have a lot to talk about." "666 Park Avenue 01x10 The Comfort of Death" "What do you think of this one?" "I still like the first one better." "It's got more depth, better color saturation." "Yeah, so do I." "Here." "Put this one in there." "I can't believe Olivia did this for you." "A hookup with an editor from "Elle"... she is so generous." "I didn't even ask her." "She just walked up to me in the lobby, handed me the woman's card, like that." "So amazing." "Tell him I-I won't do it." "Hey, what was that about?" "You know that producer I'm waiting to hear from?" "He loved my play." "That sounds great, right?" "I wasn't finished." "He loved the play, but he wants me to change the ending or he's not interested, which means a major rewrite." "Brian, wait." "Sweetie, are you gonna consider it?" "I mean, you have to at least consider it, right?" "You should listen to Louise." "This is a great opportunity." "Sweetie, is it a big change?" "Any change is a big change." "Uh, you don't understand what I have to go through." "I'm gonna go for a walk." "Brian." "It's two bedrooms, two baths." "The last tenant was here forever." "So we can finally get its true market value." "Spruce it up..." "Top to bottom." "Uh, what happened to the... the previous tenant?" "She was old." "Same thing that happens to all old people." "She moved to Florida." "Thank you." "Did you ever meet Maris?" "Uh, no." "No, never, uh, never had the pleasure." "Wonderful woman." "You would've loved her." "Maybe you can take out this wall." "Open up the kitchen..." "And restore some of the old lighting fixtures." "But I'll leave all that... up to you." "Right." "Sorry." "I-I was just thinking, it would be great if we could refinish the floors, but that could be costly." "Mm." "$200,000?" "Mm-hmm." "Work your magic." "So you decided to just..." "Walk out of our lives?" "Let us think you were dead?" "Do you know how selfish that was?" "I was mad and driving reckless." "And I just... lost control." "The car exploded." "I was sitting on the side of the road when it came to me that I could just... disappear... and all my problems would be gone." "Whose body is in the car?" "Who... who did we bury?" "My friend..." "Maria." "She got trapped in the car." "I tried to get her out." "But I couldn't." "Look, I am not proud of what I've done." "But I do know one thing, that all of the decisions that I have made have led me here, back to you." "I'm sorry... mom." "Why, Sasha?" "I still don't understand why you left." "I found out about the Drake and the kind of man that dad really was." "And I was confused and scared." "And I just wanted to hurt dad." "I wanted to hurt you both." "I'm sorry." "Well, you're back." "We have a chance to start over." "I should get writing." "♪ Will it make you love me more?" "♪" "Did you always want to be a writer?" "Yeah." "♪ If I pack up it's impressive you never gave up." "Most people just fold, cash out, move on to the next game." "♪ Can I still" "Good for you." "♪ Be the queen" "This is just an arrangement." "♪ To your king?" "An understanding." "Nothing more." "You... you get that, right?" "I was just making conversation." "It won't happen again." "I'm sorry." "That... that was a terrible thing to say." "I just..." "I'm sorry." "What about you?" "What was your dream?" "I'm here about the apartment." "Sure." "Uh, it's $10,000 a month, and I'm gonna need first, last, and a security deposit." "I'm not sure I can cover that on a cop's salary." "Thanks for coming." "Did you have any luck finding where Maris disappeared to?" "Not yet." "Got, uh, someone down at the precinct looking into it, though." "I'll keep on it." "That's where you saw Libby?" "Yeah." "Look at this." "Okay." "She drew this on the mirror." "And then I found the same symbol all over this page." "See?" "Huh." "I think she's trying to tell me, the answers are in this book." "Yeah, but the answers to what?" "The day Libby was sacrificed, the Drake changed." "I felt it when I was in her body." "A darkness descended over this place." "And... her spirit, I guess... became trapped here." "And I think she wants me to set her free." "What's the journal say?" "That's just it." "After Libby died," "Peter Kramer's journal makes no sense." "It's... it's in gibberish." "Maybe it's a code." "You think that's something you could figure out?" "Well, all these old secret societies did have their own language, like, uh, the Freemasons, Skull  Bones." "And this could be the code for the Order of the Dragon." "Maybe we can find a scholar." "Someone who specializes in secret languages." "If there was another descendant of the Order of the Dragon... maybe the key to understanding all of this was passed down to them." "Martin." "Mr. Sullivan, what can I do for you?" "Drop the choir boy act." "New York's hero my ass." " I know it was you..." " Hey!" "and your people behind the leak." "You think I don't hear things, that you got your sights set on my job?" "Well, I'm not just gonna lie down and take it while you ride in and save the day." "Slow down." "The first I heard about it was this morning." "You destroyed my family." "I hope you're happy." "I think you need to walk away." "Right now." "You've been biting your tongue ever since she came back." "What is going on?" "Do you think she's the same girl who left us?" "She just needs guidance, her father's steady hand." "Gavin, she's so full of potential." "Potential to do what exactly?" "Well, I don't know if you can see it, but... she's a lot like you." "You just need to give her a chance." "I don't want to see you get hurt again." "We know better than anybody that the things you want the most come at a price." "Promise me you'll try to make this work." "You have my word." "This is it." "All it needs is a moat and a couple of gargoyles." "Well, what did you expect, a craftsman?" "This guy was from the Order of the Dragon." "Oh." "Your boyfriend doesn't know you're here with me, does he?" "You know I can't talk to Henry about any of this stuff." "I..." "I'm just trying to protect him." "I didn't mean anything by it." "Just..." "I was just asking." "Can I help you?" "Are you Eunice Moore?" "Yes." "Well, hi." "I'm Detective Hayden Cooper." "Do you mind if we come in for a moment?" "We'd like to ask you a few questions." "Uh, so Harlan Moore was your great-grandfather?" "And this was his house?" "I inherited it from my father when he passed." "It's been in our family for four generations." "Do you know why Harlan's name is still on the deed?" "No." "Have you ever seen, uh, this symbol?" "No." "I-I've been doing some research into the history of the Drake, the building in the city where your great-grandfather used to live." "And I-I came across this book." "Now some of it's in a code." "The man who wrote it was a member of the Order of the Dragon, like your great-grandfather." "Have you ever heard of the Order of the Dragon?" "No." "I'm sorry." "Uh, would it be all right if I used your bathroom?" "First door on the right." "Thank you." "I'll be right back." "Do you have any more pictures of your great-grandfather I can take a look at?" "No." "No." "Please, no!" "No!" "Shut her up." "No!" "Are you Harlan Moore?" "I've been waiting for you." "Closer." "How old are you?" "117." "I'm cursed to suffer in this prison, this rotting body..." "The comfort of death..." "Just beyond my reach." "How is that even possible?" "How are you still alive?" "You already know the answer." "The Drake." "I..." "I found Peter Kramer's journal." "Some of it's in a code." "Can you read it?" "Of course." "I developed the code." "This... this phrase right here, they use it over and over again." "What does it say?" ""I've found the door."" "The door?" "What door?" "There was a young woman..." "Libby Griffith, my grandmother's babysitter." "What about her?" "Open the door, and Libby will be free of the Drake." "Where is it?" "In the heart of the Drake." "That's where you'll find it." "Laurel." "Hey." "Thank you for seeing me so quickly." "Of course." "I gotta run to a meeting uptown." "What's going on?" "Frank Sullivan paid me a visit today." "More like he assaulted me outside of my office." "He blamed me for leaking the information about his affair." "Did you?" "No." "But I think I know who did." "Gavin Doran." "You think he'd do that?" "I don't know." "I just have this feeling, uh..." "And I do not want to be tied to this scandal for the rest of my career." "Well, Henry, you need a thick skin." "Politics is a dirty business." "If you're gonna get involved, you better have a good reason." "Do you?" "Yeah, my father was the union rep for his company." "He drove trucks, like big long-haul rigs, down to Texas, and he always told me this..." "he always said..." ""The people who benefit from the system" ""can't be expected to change it." ""It's the little guys who need to raise their voices and be heard."" "He stood up for other people, for what was right." "For him, it was like his duty, and..." "I just want to be as good a man as he was." "Listen, this guy Sullivan was cheating with his 18-year-old staffer while his wife was getting chemo." "He deserves what he's getting." " You think so?" " Yes." "Don't let him stand in the way of your dreams." "Hello, Alexis." "What can I do for you?" "I can't keep hurting Louise and Brian anymore." "She's helped me so much, and we've become so close." "We have a deal." "If it wasn't for me, you'd still be rolling around in that wheelchair." "Do you remember that night" "I came to see you at the hospital?" "Some driver left you lying on the side of the road to die." "But I was there for you." "Do you remember what you said to me that night?" "That I would do anything to walk again." "Welcome to anything." "And trust me, you shouldn't feel too bad for Louise." "She has a few dark secrets of her own, just like everybody else." "Why?" "Why are you doing this to them?" "That's my concern." "So what's it gonna be?" "Shall I go get the wheelchair?" "No." "I'll do it." "Good girl." "It would be a shame to let those legs go to waste." "Hey, hey, hey." "Slow down." "What the hell happened?" "What was up there?" "Harlan Moore." "Alive?" "Well, he was a minute ago." "That would make him... 117." "How is that possible?" "No idea." "Well, what did he have to say?" "I have to find a door to let Libby out." "Well, the problem with opening doors..." "You never know who's gonna walk through them." "Ah!" ""A shining light in a city of shadows."" "Use the force, Jane." "Lost." "No." "Don't worry." "I'll see you whenever you get there." "Your meeting is more important than the party." "Love you, too." "Bye." "So Brian is meeting with that producer, and they loved his rewrite on the ending." "I don't know." "I think I have a good feeling about this." "That's great news." "It's only sparkling cider." "Oh." "We have to celebrate." "You are so good to me." "To Brian." "To Brian." "Baby, I'm not sure I can do this." "Well, this guy Sullivan sounds like a total lunatic." "You didn't do anything wrong." "I'm just scared" "I'm gonna recognize myself less and less." "I mean, life is about the choices we make, right?" "I just want to make the right ones." "You will." "Okay." "Go with me here." "Okay." "Heads, you do it." "Tails, you don't." "We're gonna decide our whole future on a coin flip?" "Look, Henry, if it's this hard to decide, maybe it's not the right time." "There will be other opportunities." "Let's wait and do this right." "Great." "What about Gavin?" "Well..." "What about the party?" "Well, we'll just tell him "thanks, but no thanks."" "He'll understand." "You're sure about that?" "Henry, Gavin adores you." "I'm sure he just wants what's best." "Yeah?" "We'll do it together." "Hello, Sasha." "Where's your mother?" "She's getting ready for the party." "Has she informed you of our desire to keep your identity a secret?" "As long as you're back...." "You'll remain Laurel." "Of course." "Whatever you think is best." "You've made your mother very happy." "Henry came to see me today." "He thinks you're behind the Sullivan leak." "And what did you tell him?" "I told him that I didn't think you were capable of something like that." "He trusts me, you know?" "I could be very helpful with him." "Be a daughter to your mother." "But you're to stay away from Henry." "What I've got going with him is far too important, and you nearly destroyed it once already." "I apologized for that." "I know, and I appreciate it." "I was just hoping to find some common ground." "Our common ground is your mother." "You respect that, you and I will be fine." "But if you hurt her again... we're gonna have a problem." "Well, look who decided to show up." "Uh, Jane, you remember Laurel, right?" "Yes, of course." "Hi." "Uh, have you seen Gavin?" "Not yet." "He's bound to make an entrance soon." "Henry." "I am so excited for you." "You are gonna do great things." "Olivia, I don't think you've met my publicist..." "Laurel Harris." "Oh, our paths might have crossed once or twice." "I love that dress." "Thanks." "My mom helped me pick it out." "Uh, would you excuse me for a moment?" "I'll be right back." "I..." "Brian." "Hey." "Have, uh, have you seen Lou?" "Um, she was over there somewhere talking to the woman from "Elle."" "What happened at your meeting?" "They're gonna produce my play." "That's great." "They went crazy over the changes." "Is she wasted?" "She was really nervous about meeting this editor." "Maybe it got the better of her." "You're wasted." "What the hell are you doing, huh?" "I thought you weren't gonna use again." "You just blew a great opportunity." "Let me take care of her." "You should stay here for Henry." "I'll take her upstairs." "I, uh..." "What are you doing here?" "Well, I was worried." "I hadn't heard from you." "I tried calling, but..." "I know." "Uh..." "That's probably not such a good idea." "It puts me in an awkward position with Henry." "From now on, if I need you," "I'll call you." "Fair enough." "Sorry." "That was harsh." "No." "No." "Forget it." "Don't you have, uh, cop things to do?" "Not at the moment." "But thanks for asking." "Why are you being so helpful?" "I told you." "It's my job." "Right." "Nothing's gonna happen between us, ever." "Okay." "You love Henry." "I get it." "Thanks for checking up on me." "I don't know what's wrong with me." "I took one aspirin before we left the house." "But maybe it wasn't an aspirin?" "I am so sorry." "What do you have to be sorry for?" "I'm the one that should be sorry." "I'm going to make everything all right." "Mm." "Just lay down." "Can I tell you something?" "Of course." "Back when I was using," "I was driving home from the club..." "Out of my mind." "It was January 19th." "It haunts me." "Do you remember that night" "I came to see you at the hospital?" "It was dark." "And I dropped my cigarette." "And when I reached down for it..." "I swerved off the road." "Oh, and I hit something." "Some driver left you on the side of the road to die." "I always said it was a dog." "At least that's what I told everybody when they asked." "But I was lying to myself." "'Cause the truth was too painful." "Lex..." "I never told anybody this." "I think I hit somebody." "But I just kept driving." "So what can I do for you, Henry?" "I'll get right to it." "Frank Sullivan approached me on the street and accused me of being behind the leak." "Was it you?" "Yes." "Gavin." "Henry," "Frank Sullivan was going down." "I just quickened the fall." "I understand that, Gavin." "I just wanted to do things differently." "Well, I'm sorry if I disappointed you." "I know you put a lot into tonight, but I'm..." "I'm not sure I can be party to this." "Henry." "Politics is about opportunity." "Gavin has presented you with an excellent one, regardless of how it came about." "What, are you two ganging up on me now?" "We have something in common..." "Your best interests." "Someone's gonna take that seat, Henry." "It's not how you got it." "It's what you do with it." "That's what will define you." "Look, I understand what's at stake here." "And walking away from this will not be easy, but..." "Then don't." "If you're plan is to wait for something to come along that isn't tainted, good luck." "This is New York politics." "It's filled with men like Sullivan." "What it needs is a man like you." "Someone..." "As a good a man as your father was." "Ladies and gentlemen, if I could have your attention." "I would like to introduce the next city councilman from the 53rd district..." "Henry Martin." "♪ A new sensation" "♪ a new sensation" "Oh, this is just the beginning, Jane." "You know, Henry could be mayor one day." "♪ Dream, baby, dream" "Kind of took me by surprise up there." "What changed your mind?" "Well, I would've talked to you about it if you didn't disappear." "I lost my phone." "I..." "I thought I left it in the apartment." "You know you can't keep lying to him." "What are you doing here?" "You tell me." "I-I don't want this." "I want Henry." "It's your dream." "You can do anything you want." "Ah!" "Oh!" "She did it." "You know," "I'm dying for a steak." "Do we have a steak?"
