"No one is gonna find her." "True." "Now she's only missing." "No one is gonna see her for 500 years." "What more do they want?" "What more do they want?" "Did you just ask me that?" "They want a body, that's what they want." "This is angelica Vita we're talking about here." "Her disappearance is the biggest vanishing act since, what, Howard Hughes?" "people are gonna want some answers." "And after one look at that will you are gonna be suspect number one, my friend." "Yeah, that's not good." "VITA PROPERTY" "Good afternoon."

"She had cancer." "people with cancer call doctors." "Dr. Ortus is not an oncologist." "He's a cryogenics expert." "Two days before he arrived, she filed 10 different trusts in the Cook islands." "AII funded with exactly the same amount of money, $24.2 million." "Contents are sealed, but we know they have the same executor." "Petros Dimitrios." "He's a Greek national, Iong-time confidante." "Dimitrios personally runs seven of her largest companies." "namely in tourism, hotels and shipping." "Three days after her disappearance, one of these trusts transferred $1 million to a company in switzerland known as endless Horizon."

" You got people?" "What does that mean?" " What are you, my echo?" "I have." "That's nice, you have people." "talk to your people." " Why are we here?" "What are we doing here?" " Let me get this straight." "If my sister turns 40 before we can get her declared legally dead I don't get a cent?" "technically, yeah." "That's pretty much how it works." "But that's why you're gonna hire me, you see?" "We'II start with the 250 grand from your hoIy-water deal there as a retainer." "Ten percent of the estate." "Oh, yeah." "Look at that one." "Look at that one." "Yes!" "Oh, when it's transferred into your name, of course." " That's what I'm talking about." " get a hearing." "Consider it done." "You know, maybe you're a lefty." "Aaron RossdaIe actually completed brief before it was due." " What's next?" " An interview with the L.A. Sun, no less." "Oh, not the Stanton case." "No." "Your favorite case of all." "You." "The L.A. Sun wants to interview me, about me?" "There are people out there who think you should be the new DA." "Hm." "I don't wanna talk to a reporter today." "I think you'II wanna talk to this reporter." "And why is that?" "She's smart and beautiful and read by 16 million voters." "Oh, no." "No, no." "You haven't gone on a date since I started here." "What constitutes a date?" "She'II be here at 3 p.m. today." "You're fired." "How cute is this?" "It has Ieggings." "Ruched Ieggings." "Heh, heh, heh." "So you're gonna go off and do your very first interview and you're not even gonna tell me who it is?" "Just some prosecutor that wants to be DA." " Not Aaron RossdaIe." " Yeah." "He's like the AttiIa the Hun of lawyers." "That guy would get Santa claus 15 to 20 for breaking and entering." "Oh, come on." "He's not that bad." " Is he?" " Did You even do any research on this guy?" "He has a 98 percent conviction rate." "The highest of any other prosecutor in the history of L.A. County." "And since he's joined the DA's office the crime rate has decreased by 40 percent with the murder rate being three times lower than before he arrived." "Yeah, well, the fun rate has dropped to zero." "well, there's two sides to every story." "Look, all you really need to know is that his daddy ran for governor about 10 years ago and lost." "Ever since then, he and mommy dearest have been trying to get junior into the seat daddy couldn't win." "plus he's cute." "What?" "alice, we've been down this road before, sister." "Okay, that was kind of out of line." "I am a professional." "God help you." "What?" "Your critics say you're too aggressive in your prosecutions." "Oh, boy, here we go." "In fact, criminals you've convicted average 25 percent more jail time than other criminals convicted of similar charges." "How do you respond to that?" "well, it depends on your perspective." "Is it with the criminal or is it with the victim?" "I'm with the victim." "You asked for and achieved life in prison for Victor Ramirez for stealing $150." "Mr. Ramirez did steal $150." "He also beat and tortured 80-year-oId AIfonso and Maria BIanco in their own home." "You see, we as a society have to make a choice." "Are we gonna tolerate this kind of garbage or are we gonna send a message?" "Victor Ramirez got that message." "And the people of Los angeles are better off for it." "What about Mrs. Ramirez and their children?" "Mr. Ramirez made a choice." "His children will have to do the same." "One bad choice?" "No second chances?" "Depends on the choice." " You like her." " Yeah, sit down." "Get a dozen roses to that address before she gets there." "I'II take you and Roger to dinner anywhere you wanna go." "Oh, you really like her." "Just get the flowers." "A dozen roses?" "welcome to politics." "Oh, I think he's sweet." " So Is arsenic." " Oh." " Hi, baby." " You're not gonna call him, are you?" "I already did." "alice." "Hey, this isn't a game." "And that would be him." "Yeah." "Don't be mad." "I gotta" "So you must think I'm really gonna make you look bad." "I don't care what you make me look like, I want you to go on a date with me." "Do not go on a date with him." "Can't go out on a date until the story comes out." " Okay, fine." "When does it print?" " Wednesday." "AII right." "How about Thursday night?" "Yeah." "Thursday night sounds amazing." " Perfect." " Okay." "Hey, you're being ridiculous, he's a really nice guy." "SIX MONTHS LATER" "I didn't ask for this, you know?" "It wasn't like I woke up this morning and said:" ""Today, I will go out and have an affair."" "I mean, all just never understood me, you know?" "This place can be the land of the lost where you can go to forget, or to be forgotten." "The problem is that while you can be forgotten you can never forget." "I didn't sign up for a baby." "Do me a favor." "Can you sign this?" "Is this for your wife or your girlfriend?" "Go home to your family." "You could've signed that, you know." " i could do a Iot of things." " And yet you don't." "Why is that?" "I don't know." "isolation feels good when we're hurting." "Pain is an intimate emotion one you don't wanna share or even expose." "Reach out."

"An acute manifestation of my subconscious has transferred into hallucination." "Mexico." "A little far off of our jurisdiction, don't you think?" "It's all right here." "The yacht's in her name and he's living on it." "Look at the phone records." "They never spoke until a month before her disappearance." "Now he's living on her yacht." "She is not dead." "So she was frozen." "That is not a homicide." "Look, if we can prove that Ortus is taking money from one of Vita's companies then we got a conspiracy to your fraud." "We get Ortus, we find angelica." "That's huge." "Just need a search warrant." "We'II take it to the DA's office." "If there's this much money involved, there's a conspiracy." "Let's take a look at the brother." "He's got a motive." "You're the boss." "until you become DA and then you'II be too big for us little people." "Don't hold your breath." "You got my vote." "elizabeth, you're too good to me." " There Is one thing." " You know what?" "Save it." "Got my parents' anniversary tonight, gotta pick up alice at 7." "It's about alice." "You know what?" "Don't tell me." "You're destined to be DA, you know that." "After that the mayor, the mayor or the governor after that, who knows?" "But the one thing that can keep you from where you wanna be is a scandal." "Let's get something straight." "I haven't done anything." "If there are gonna be skeletons in your closet make sure the bones are yours." "I'm sorry." "I'II get her." "Thanks, Joanne." "I've got the good news this time." "I'm pregnant." "I didn't sign up for a baby." "It's okay." "It's okay." "Sorry I'm late." "It was a crazy day at work." "Wow, you look so handsome." "What's wrong?" " You know what?" "Let's go inside." " No." "It's your parents' anniversary." "We're gonna be late." "No." "I have never been inside." "Not once." "Is it that big of a deal?" "Is it that big of a deal..." "Good night." "...that you have a daughter that you never told me about?" "Yes, alice." "It is that big of a deal." "Get in the car." "Get in the car." "So, what's the problem?" "I can't help thinking she's still in love with him." "Spenser was not a man to her." "He was an object." "A graven image hung on the wall and worshipped." "What is it that really bothers you?" "That she worshipped him or that she didn't worship you?" "I don't know." "Hi there." "Is your father home?" "How'd you even get past the gate?" "Your father gave me the code." " Tori, that's enough." " Whatever." "Let's talk in the studio." " Your daughter's a charmer." " Right." "This is a great shot of your son." "Mr. and Mrs. Evans your son has suffered severe head trauma from the accident."

"I told you, go ahead." "I'II get you next time." "AII right." "Next time." "He won't always care what you think." "You know that, right?" "The Jews have a word called Sabbath." "The idea is that one day a week we take rest from everything else so that we can focus on what really matters." "We lost him." "I'm so sorry." "In time, darkness will give way." "And then you must live." "Live like you've never lived before." "I was told that you're the guy and for the money I'm paying you you better be the guy." "Trevor, what can I do to make a miracle happen for you?" "I was going through his stuff, I found this raw footage." "It's his last song." "On and on" "On and on" " Oh this Is good." "Yeah, it's good." " this Is really good." " Make it a hit." "I've wanted to tell you." "What is the point of talking, huh?" "What is the point?" "Thirty-five years ago today my parents stood at the altar of a tiny church in Mount BetheI, Texas." "HONNOR THY FATHER AND MOTHER" "And it was there that they heard these words." "Love is patient, love is kind." "Not jealous or boastful or rude." "So you're fighting." "It's not what is said." "It's what's not." "I'm curious." "How could she say anything that would change her past?" "She can't." "It does not demand its own way." "It's not irritable." "And it keeps no record of being wrong." "although my sister Eva never really saw it that way." "Some people are just easier to love than others." "Fair enough." "Fair enough." "Fair enough." "It does not rejoice in injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out." "Love never gives up." "It never loses faith." "It's always hopeful." "And it endures every circumstance." "You did it, Mom and Dad." "You lived it." "Every word." "congratulations." "I Iove you both." "Hear, hear." " I Iove you, son." "You've been staring at her all night." "And you haven't said a word." "Evie, you wouldn't understand." "Aaron, I'm divorced." "believe me, I'II understand." "Not this time." "My one regret is that I didn't give Scott another chance." "You know, he hurt me, and I was done." "That was it." "He deserved it." "Maybe but I'II never get a 35th wedding anniversary, will I?" "What would your father do if he were in your shoes with your mother?" "alice is not my mother." "No but your mother's been wrong and your father forgave her." "This is different." "How?" "Because it's you?" "Some people don't have the freedom to forgive." "Freedom?" "So you're a slave?" "I have a duty to the public I serve." "Right." "The politician." "The lawyer." "You can't love by the letter of the Iaw." "Are you a good man?" "I think so." "Are you a compassionate man?" "Yes." "Words are like scissors" "I'm sorry." "No." "Do you love her?" "Yes."

"Their father shouIdn't have cut him out of the will in the first place." "This whole mess has gotten way too dirty." "I say we wash our hands of it and move on to real criminals." "I can't do that." "No, you can't, can you?" "And why is that?" "They think that they're entitled." "entitled?" "Or is it that you believe that Ortus killed your wife?" "Oh, come on, Jake." "How can I send detectives in the field if I don't know everything about them?" "She was in grad school." "She was offered a thousand dollars to participate in an experiment with doctor Richard Ortus." "he told her that it was an experiment in cryogenic anesthesia using the freezing of tissue to assist in surgery." "He said they just freeze a little bit of her arm and bring her right back." "Easy money." "She said we could never afford to have a honeymoon and now we can." "And I never saw her again." "I'm sorry." "He covered his tracks, but I know he killed her."

"he certainly wasn't a married man." "he was my hero." "A man who saved my Iife." "It wasn't about taking away what he had." "It was about having a piece of this man all to myself if only for a moment." "I don't know what to say." "Things got out of control." "But suddenly, it all stopped." "Do I have to tell her everything?" "What does she deserve?" "Everything." "how do you feel?" "hollow." "We always feel empty when we've poured everything out." "Sin is a word from archery."
