"Previously on Damages." "Josh Reston." "I just got a job reporting crime at the Manhattan Observer." "The warmth all lie behind these walls." "And you two are..." "Having a baby." "How much would it take for you to walk away?" "I want you to cut off any communication with Ellen." "Whatever Ellen told you, she was covering up for me." "When you left, I thought you were getting out of the business." "This is my job, Dad." "The Tobins are clients." "There's money." "And I want in." "Your mother said you were helping transfer money to a charity?" "Yes." "Do you remember anything about that form?" "I signed it so many times, but it was just a bunch of numbers." "How would you feel about going back down to Antigua?" "Tessa Marchetti doesn't know anything and she's on your side." "You're sure of that, how?" "Your father has supported Tessa her whole life." "She's a problem." "You have to intervene." "Joe needs to know Tessa is his daughter." " Did you tell him?" " Yes." "Joe's going to leave Tessa alone." "No, please, no." "You had no choice." "Ms Hewes?" "Ms Hewes?" "Yeah." "Judge Reilly is here to see you." "I'm very sorry to hear about Tessa Marchetti." "Our investigator was killed with her." "The cleaning staff at the hotel found them." "We're obviously getting close to the money, Your Honour." "If you take us off this case now, all the progress we've made would be for nothing." "I reviewed your brief." "You believe Miss Marchetti was transferring funds from a bank in Antigua to a charity in the US." "That's how the Tobins were laundering their money." "I'm going to let you see this through." "Thank you, Your Honour." "I promise you, you will not regret that decision." "I hope so, Mr Shayes." "Patty, can I talk to you alone?" "Of course." "All right, thank you very much." "I recently received some information about Mr Shayes." "I assume you didn't know about this." "I had no idea." "So the judge knows I was invested with Tobin." "Yeah." "You can't keep your finances secret any more." "Why didn't you tell me?" "I don't know, I don't know, Patty." "So, what's the next step here?" "You know what you need to do." "Your father never wanted anything to happen to Tessa Marchetti." "You lied to Mr Emanuel." "You told him I was on board with this." " The girl was going to turn us in." " How do you know that?" "Because she was found down there with a bodyguard and the account number for the charity." "With the girl gone, how do you plan to keep moving the money?" "You think of that?" "We've put enough into the charity for now, okay?" "We'll start again when Emanuel finds another courier." "You should have cleared all this with me." "I warned you about Tessa Marchetti, and you did not listen." "You're an old man in over his head, just like my father." "You shut your mouth and have some respect." "You shut your mouth!" "I call the shots now, okay?" "You don't like the way I'm running things, feel free to turn me into the authorities." "You didn't tell him, did you?" "Hello, Lenny." "Why didn't you tell him, Marilyn?" "You are obviously upset, but who is it that we're talking about?" "Please do not lie to me." "If you had told Joe that Tessa was his daughter, she'd still be alive." "Why didn't you tell him?" "I don't understand." "Of course you don't understand." "You don't have a family of your own, Lenny." "You don't have children." "Vodka, rocks." "You know what I have to do." "Don't tell him, Lenny." "What's the point now?" "So Patty gave us the evidence we need to arrest Carol Tobin." " That's good news." " And you're going to prosecute her with me." " You're not firing me?" " Doesn't look that way." "Why not?" "'Cause I like to win, and your instincts, despite being completely unethical, may be an asset." "Thank you." "Yeah, besides, when I made the deal with Patty for Carol Tobin, she made me promise to keep you on." "Really?" "So you have her to thank." "You can go now." "But, Ellen, one phone call to the bar association and you're history." "Come in." "Thank you." "Mr DiFolco, nice to see you again." "I'd like to make another withdrawal." "Certainly." "The Fund for Africa's Future, correct?" "That's right." "You know where to sign." "How is Mr Zedeck?" "Very well, thank you." "I would love to meet him in person someday." "As a trustee for the charity, he's a very busy man." "Besides, Mr Zedeck is old-fashioned." "He figures, why do anything yourself when you can send your attorney to do it for you?" "Yeah." "Well, give him my best." " In cash?" " Please." "The usual denominations." "Special delivery." "Thank you." "My regards to Mr Zedeck." "Here." "Well, shoot me dead, then screw me." "Satisfied?" "Long as you keep it coming, your secrets are safe." "You're gonna have to be patient." "Yeah, I got you." "You got to be careful." "Don't tip the mark." "The Tobins are not a mark." "Maybe not for you." "What do you say we bag ourselves a couple of whores?" "My treat." "I'll pass." "You remember the first time I took you?" "I broke you in." "My resignation from the firm." "So you lied to me because you were protecting Tom." "Yes." "I assume you knew he was invested with Tobin?" "Yes, he told me that a while ago." "And you felt it was okay not to mention that to me?" "Tom was in a bad place, and I decided he needed my loyalty more than you did." "One of the reasons I didn't come back and work for you was so I could make my own decisions." "I admire that." "What's gonna happen to Tom now?" "He's resigning for the sake of the case." "What case?" "You don't have one without Tessa Marchetti." "No, I don't." "Maybe it's over." "Maybe I'll never find the money." "That doesn't sound like you." "There's got to be some angle left to play." "I can only think of one." "Turn the Tobins against each other." "Because we won't find the money unless we tear that family apart." "Sorry to show up unannounced." "What are you doing here?" "Jill and I got the chromosomal tests back." "And?" "Flying colours." "Third trimester is a breeze." "Glad to hear that." "I know you were worried before." "You asked me about paternity." "I just want you to be sure." "Well, I am." "They checked the DNA." "Kid's all mine." "I'll send you a copy of the report." "I need you to sign here, Mr Winstone, and here." " He's all yours." " Thank you, Officer." "A bar fight?" "Really?" " The bartender couldn't take a joke." " Yeah, you're a joke." " Keep it up, you're next." "I'll slap you around!" " Shut up!" "Screw up again and we're done, you hear me?" "Donna?" "Hey." "Sorry to get you out of bed." "Well, you know I don't sleep." "I didn't say you were sleeping." "Thanks for the call." "You know, next time it's gonna cost you dinner and a movie." "You got a tip for me?" "You asked me to keep an eye out for anything on the Tobins." "Yeah?" "Well, there was an arrest you may want to look into." "In my efforts to aid the victims of Louis Tobin's historic fraud," "I purposely misled my clients and my colleagues." "I failed to disclose that I, too, had fallen victim to Mr Tobin's crime." "My partner in the firm, Patty Hewes, remained entirely unaware of my financial status." "And in wilfully hiding my agenda from her," "I created a conflict of interest that put my firm and our entire case at risk." "For this, I feel deep shame and regret." "Therefore, effective immediately, I am resigning from the firm, as I recognise it's impossible for me to continue to work alongside those whose trust I so completely violated." "I was happy to hear from you." "I was thinking about our last conversation." "I'm ready to accept your offer." "You've made the right decision, Jill." "I want you to know that this was not easy for me." "I love your son." "Yeah, of course you do." "Burnham." "Is that with an "H"?" "B-U-R-N-H-A-M." "I really believe this is the best thing, for both me and Michael." "$200,000 will buy everyone a lot of happiness." "Make it $500,000." "I'd like to think your son's life is worth at least that much." "And if you want me out of it, that's what it's gonna cost you." "You leave tonight." "You don't even say goodbye." "So, my contact gave me a tip, and I did some research, and I think you might be able to use this." " For what?" " The Tobin case." "Now, I'm going to hold off writing about this for now." "Whatever you and Patty get from it," "I want the inside story." "Thank you." "See, I told you someday we could help each other out." "Albert Wiggins, arrested for drunk and disorderly conduct." "Leonard Winstone bailed him out." "Who's Albert Wiggins?" "He has a record in seven states going back 50 years." "Bank fraud, theft, forgery." "So why is Leonard Winstone representing him?" "Winstone's CV says he graduated from Guilford Law School, but according to the registrar..." "There was no Leonard Winstone who went to Guilford." "No, there was, but he died in a car accident a few weeks after graduation." "So the man who's acting as the Tobins' lawyer is not Leonard Winstone." "Apparently not." "Who is he?" "Turns out Albert Wiggins had a son." "Lester Wiggins." "He was arrested in 1984." "You okay there, Patricia?" "I was always in my father's shadow, so I blamed him for a lot of my problems because I was invisible to the man." "I never had his respect, so I acted out." "I was very self-destructive for a long time." "But now he's dead, and I haven't had a drink since the night he died." "Now that my father's gone, my family needs me to take charge and step in, make" "some tough decisions." "So, in spite of everything that's happened to us," "I'm grateful, in a way." "'Cause it's given me some purpose," "helped me to stay sober." "You shouldn't have kept this from Patty." "I told you." " I had my reasons." " Now you have no salary," " and that's all that was keeping us afloat." " Will you just relax?" "I can handle this." "I'll figure this whole thing out." "And until then?" "What are we supposed to do?" "We keep selling." "I put the townhouse on the market." " What?" " I didn't want to have to argue with you." "That's bullshit!" "I cannot live like this." "Well, we don't have any other choice." "You can ask Patty for help." "Any contact between us can jeopardise her standing with the court." "And you're concerned about her?" "How many hits have you taken for Patty over the years?" " Look, I can handle this." " How?" " I'm fine." " How are you going to handle it?" " Just do what I ask you to do." " No, I am your wife." "Look, I don't have to deal with this right now." " Don't ask any more questions." " No, I am your wife." "You don't want to know." "Will you just shut up for a second and let me fix it, just once?" "I don't want Megan and Charlie to see you like this." "What the hell does that mean?" "It means I don't want you here." "Don't come home tonight." " Deb..." " No!" "Who is it?" "Ellen Parsons." "From the district attorney's office." "I know who you are." "I have something for you." "What's that?" "The truth about your attorney." "What the hell?" "Your whole world is about to collapse." " You need to go, Ms Parsons." " Talk to me, Joe." " Maybe you can still save your family." " Get out." "Is there someone else you can trust?" "Hello." "Mr Winstone." "It's Tom Shayes." "What a surprise." "How are you?" "I've been better." "I saw you on television, Mr Shayes." "I'm sorry about what's happening to you, but I'm not sure why you're calling me." "I'm losing my family, Mr Winstone, my home." "I don't know what to do." "And what do you want from me?" "I'd like to see you, please." "I'd like to talk to you." "I'm afraid that's just not possible." "Ma'am, are you all right?" "You need a doctor?" "Ma'am?" "What are you doing out here all alone?" "Ma'am, you sure you don't need a doctor?" "So Deb kicked you out?" "Yeah." "She wanted me to ask Patty for money." "Where are you going to stay?" "I don't know." "You're welcome to come to my place." "Aren't you seeing some guy?" "I'll just send him home for the night." "I'm okay." "I'll be fine." "Maybe you should go to Patty for help if you think that it might help you keep your family together." "Ask Patty to support my entire extended family?" "You know, this job with Patty," "it was the greatest thing I've ever had in my life, and yet it looks like it might cost me my family." "You want to sign the lease?" "No." "Sure, Joe, that's fine." "I just..." "Why don't I take a look at it first?" "I can come over right now." "Of course." "I have it right here." "I'll bring it with me." "See you there." "Kevin and Rachel are gonna love this, Joe." "Yeah, I hope so." "And don't worry." "You know, the apartment's gonna be purchased through a trust, so the Tobin name won't appear anywhere." "Okay." "Did you bring that thing I asked you for?" "The..." "Yes." "Of course." "It's all here?" "I have something for you." "Open it." "Where did you get this?" "Why does that matter?" "Listen, Joe..." "A long time ago, before I met your father, I made mistakes." "Changing your identity is not a mistake." "Come on. "Lester Wiggins"?" "What kind of name is that?" "Sure, I changed it." "Everything you ever told my family is complete bullshit." " That's not true." " Yeah, it's true." "Your father wasn't in the Air Force." "He wasn't killed in Korea." "He was a criminal." " Joe..." " You weren't raised overseas." " I can explain that." " You're not even a goddamn lawyer." "You're not even a lawyer!" "The Leonard Winstone who graduated from Guilford Law School is dead." "Who the hell are you?" "Someone is clearly trying to discredit me." "Don't you understand that?" "That's not answering my question, you piece of shit." "Who are you?" "Who am I?" "I'm the man who has taken care of your family for almost three decades." "That's who I am." "My father died without even knowing you were a fraud." "You're wrong." "Jesus, I came clean to him years ago, and he didn't care." "That's it." "Good." "Keep lying." "You didn't know your father the way I did." "He trusted me with everything that he kept hidden from you." "Danielle." "The Ponzi scheme." "You told me you didn't even know about the scheme." "Of course I did." "Jesus Christ." "I know this is hard for you, Joe, but he needed me." "He needed a son, and all you did is disappoint him." "He knew he couldn't count on you." "You listen to me." "He trained you so that you would do whatever he wanted you to." "You know what he called you behind your back?" "To make me laugh?" "He said you were his little monkey." "If you ever come near my family again, you're finished." "Ms Hewes, Terry Brooke." "Yeah, I was hoping we could talk again." "Thank you." "I wanted to meet because I'm still trying to figure out the character for the Frobisher film." "How's that going?" "Arthur's got a lot of quirks." "He's an interesting guy to play." "I had an experience, I'd kind of like to get your take on it." "Okay." "Well, I know Arthur wants me to see him as this dark guy, complicated, complex, and maybe he is," "but I can't tell if he's just trying to impress me." "Impress you how?" "Well, the dude was high on coke, so he was either bullshitting me, or he just said a little more than he meant to." "What did he say?" "He said that during your case against him, he hired some guy, and this guy would do anything for him." "Did Mr Frobisher say who he was?" "A cop." "Art said he hired him from some private security firm." "Let me ask." "What do you think the Frobisher character's capable of doing?" "How desperate was this guy?" "I'm not sure what you're asking me." "I don't know." "I guess murder sounds a little too crazy." "He was probably just screwing with me." " He said he murdered someone?" " He was implying something." "Arthur Frobisher is many things, but, no, he is not a killer." "Even at his most desperate?" "I'm sure the character would be more fun, Mr Brooke, but it just isn't true." "That's just what I thought." "The guy is full of shit." "I wasn't expecting to hear back from you." "I hear the Tobins have cast you aside." "Joe Tobin filed papers with the court." "He revoked your authority to represent them." "Mr Shayes, I called you back because I thought we might be able to help each other." "Help each other how?" "What if I said to you I could make you whole again?" "Restore your finances and your reputation?" "In exchange for what?" "Immunity from prosecution." "I know where the Tobin money is." "Can you access it?" "I can get you half of what the Tobins stole from you up front." "When you provide immunity, you'll get the rest." "I'll give you names, account numbers, enough details to put them in prison for the rest of their lives." "You've worked for the Tobin family your whole life." "Why turn on them now?" "Joe Tobin is dangerous." "You can be the hero, Mr Shayes." "You can be the one to bring down the Tobin family when Patty Hewes couldn't." "I'm gonna need the money delivered in cash." "If you can do that, I'll talk to my friend at the D. A.'s office about drawing up your immunity." "If we do this, we have to move quickly before the family figures out what I'm doing." "Okay, take this key to the apartment." "From now on, we meet here." "I own these lofts." "The building's empty." "When the money is ready, I'll contact you." " Yeah?" " There's a Stuart Zedeck here to see you." "Great." "Send him in." "This way, Mr Zedeck." "It is a pleasure to finally meet you." "Likewise." "I'm sure you'll understand, but I will need to see some identification, Mr Zedeck." "Call me Stuart." " Passport okay?" " Great." "Another withdrawal from the charity?" "Please." "What's the foundation doing these days?" "Still working on the project in Tanzania." "Excellent." "Here." "The usual denominations?" "Terrific." "I'll be right back." "I was gonna wait for you to come home, but I was too excited." "Okay, go ahead, open them." "What do you think?" "Whose is this?" "It's yours." "And the apartment that we looked at, I put a down payment on it." "What?" "Yeah, the maid's room can be a nursery, and with the elevator, we don't have to lug a stroller up the stairs." "Are you nuts?" "We can't afford these." "Oh, yes, we can." "How?" "I sold a collection today." "Whose?" "It's a brand-new artist." "We haven't even shown him yet." "I finished the paperwork, and boom." "This is awesome!" "Okay, go ahead, get in, get in." "Terry Brooke approached you with some concerns about Arthur Frobisher?" "Yes, Mr Brooke thinks Frobisher may have hired a police officer to commit a murder." "And you think David Connor was the victim of that murder?" "My fiancé." "Last year, a detective reached out to me saying he had information about David's death." " Detective Rick Messer." " Yeah." "But then he was killed in the line of duty before I ever found out what he knew." "What did Detective Messer tell you?" "He said he was worried there was corruption in the department." "He thought there may have been a cover-up surrounding my fiancé's murder." "Well, I pulled everything the department had on Messer, his entire history with the NYPD." "It's a list of his partners, his commendations, closed cases, cases he was still working on." "What, Ellen?" "Messer's former partner." "I know this guy." "His name is Wes Krulik." "Record your message after the tone." "Wes, it's Ellen." "I don't know where you are or if this number still works, but I need to talk to you." "Mr Shayes." "The first instalment." "Now, prove yourself to me." "I spoke to my friend." "I can get you immunity." "Good." "Ellen, it's Tom." "We're in business." "Tom got this from Leonard Winstone?" "Yes." "They made a deal." "What kind of deal?" "Tom was the one who leaked to the judge that he was invested with the Tobins." "He set up his own resignation?" "He wanted the world to think that he had cut ties with you so he could make a deal with Winstone." "And it worked." "Winstone's agreed to turn against the Tobins." "Yeah, I'm staying at a hotel tonight." "Yeah." "Don't worry about me, Megan." "I love you, too." "Good night." "Did you know Tom was planning on approaching Winstone?" "Yes." "But he was protecting you." "If it failed, he wanted to take the fall alone." "Tommy." "Geez, man, what are you doing here?" "What were you doing meeting with that guy from Thanksgiving?" "That was nothing." "It was just, you know..." "Don't worry about that." "It's cold out there." "Well, stay here, stay here." "It's fine." "Thanks, Tommy." "I would think you'd be impressed with him, Patty." "Tom's gonna win us this case."
