"And Noah couldn't let people know what Edward's dad was doing and shine too much light on his fund." "The only way to keep the Ponzi scheme going was keep those documents secret." "Yeah, he killed a man to do it." "Are you bringing Noah in?" "We went to his office, he wasn't there." "We're gonna try his estate, and see if we can find him." "Don't, he's right here." "♪ ♪" "[Tires squeal]" "Jane:" "Maura?" "Maura?" "!" "Are you all right?" "[Panting]" "I'm all right." "I'm all right." "The documents are all..." "all over the floor." " Where are you?" " Winchester Road, just a couple of miles south of Edward's estate." "We're close." "All right, sit tight." "We'll be right there." "[Car door closes]" "♪ ♪" "He's got a gun." "[Whispers] He's got a gun!" "Maura!" "Hang on!" "[Tires squeal]" "Stop right there!" "I want those documents!" "You shoot..." "You shoot me, and they go right over the edge with me." "You'll never have time to retrieve them before the police get here." "You're right." "We can make a deal." "A deal?" "Yeah, a mutually beneficial arrangement between two reasonable people." "What do you have in mind?" "You give me the documents, and I let you walk." "In order for an agreement like that to work, there has to be trust between the parties involved." "What do you need me to do?" "Make me understand how a smart man gets involved in a Ponzi scheme." "What difference does it make?" "It will help me judge just how desperate you are." "Why do you care?" "Desperate people can't be trusted." "And we agreed that we need to trust each other." "People with my kind of money are never desperate." "We can buy our way out of anything." "Until you meet someone as rich as you." "Trust me, you're not as rich as me." "I was talking about Edward and his father." "You couldn't buy them." "And now I don't have to." "You have the last set of documents." "So my plan is simple..." "I either buy you or I kill you." "There's no other way out for you." "Or for you." "And there's no way I would ever make that kind of a deal." "It's over, Noah." "[Sighs] You've forced my hand." "At least I'll be able to run." "Put the gun down." "Very slowly." "I don't want to shoot you, but I will." "Oh, we wouldn't want to scratch this beauty." "[Panting]" "Where did you come from?" "Well, those shotguns have hair triggers." "We parked around the corner, figured the element of surprise was important." "Surprise." "[Sighs]" "You all right?" "I am now." "[Sighs]" "[Elevator bell dings]" "Where's my mom?" "Oh, she's downstairs, grabbing a cup of coffee." "She'll be right up." "Why are you smiling?" "Because we really hit it off." "[Elevator bell dings]" "How is that possible?" " Hey." " Hey." "Oh, so did you go with the dark roast?" "Mm-hmm." "It's great with the hazelnut cream." "I really love that." " It is, yeah." "Yeah." " Yeah, right?" "Okay, what's going on here?" "I don't know what you're talking about, dear." "You're both standing here like it was fun and games." "Because we had a great time." "There is no way he could have stood up to your interrogation and come out with that smile on his face." "I didn't interrogate him." "We just had a lovely chat." "Yeah, she's right." "It was nice, yeah." "Why didn't you ask him all the crazy-ass questions you asked all of my other boyfriends?" "Simple." "I liked this one right off the bat." "Now, I wasn't crazy about the relationship deception you two pulled, but..." "I figured it was all your idea." "Mm-hmm." "[Laughs]" "Hey, how about we all go out to dinner, huh?" "That sounds good." "Nina?" "Yeah, I'd like that." "Frankie, would you get my coat?" " It's on my chair." " Sure." "[Laughs]" "You know I love you, right?" "Mm-hmm." "But if you screw up this relationship," "I will come down on you like a pack of hungry wolves." "I was about to say the same thing to you, sweetheart." "We good?" "We're great." "Great." "Okay, so I'm thinking Vitello's." "♪ ♪" "I think that bump on your head has altered your thinking." "Uh, no, I'm serious." "I think my mother actually likes you." "Tolerates is a more accurate description." "[Chuckles]" "All right." "Who would have thought that we would end up here after all these years?" "Life is unpredictable." "Yeah." "I'll say." "So are you ready to come inside?" "Are we really gonna do this, Maura?" "It's been a long time." "I don't think we have a choice." "[Laughs]" "All right." " Hi." " Hi!" " Hey!" " The happy couple!" "[Laughter]" "Oh, gosh!" "Look at this cake!" "Jane:" "I know." "Ma went all out." "Thank you." "Oh, sure." "So what do we do now?" "Well, we can't have cake until you sign the divorce papers, and... and I want cake." " Yeah." " Cake." "All:" "Cake, cake, cake, cake, cake, cake!" "Sign 'em, Maura." "Ladies first." "[Laughs] Okay." "Frankie:" "All right." "And by the powers not vested in me," "I pronounce you happily divorced." "[All cheering]" "Who knew a divorce party could be so much fun?" "[Laughs]" "Let's never have one, okay?" "Okay." "Mmm." "Ooh." "All right, you have to tell us all about Maura's wild years." " Come on." " Ooh." "Did she ever tell you about the time she tried out to be a professional female wrestler?" "You're kidding me." "WWF was in town." "It was her opportunity to protest gender inequality in popular culture." "I have to take notes." "No, seriously." "She came up with a name." "Oh?" "Maura the Mauler." "She had a costume." "What?" "!" "You're so right." "This is the best way to celebrate a divorce." "Well, you know, I figure a divorce should be as much fun as the wedding." "Thank you for throwing the party." "Yeah, sure." "It's not every day that your best friend gets divorced." "[Sighs] Um..." "You've decided to take the job, haven't you?" "Yes, I have." "I think it's the right thing to do." "I'm proud of you." "Really?" "Yeah, I know change is hard." "And it's scary to face the unknown, but we have more to do in our lives." "Yeah." "Thanks for supporting me." "That's what best friends do." "Here's to change." "To change." "And maybe collared shirts." "No!" "No, God, no!" "That is never gonna happen ...not even at the Bureau." "Oh, but here's some good news." "Uh, the employee discount at the FBI in the gift shop... 25% off." "[Gasps]" "[Laughs]" "You know I can't resist a sale." "Mm-hmm."
