"How does a broke man hire an assassin?" "There's lots of people who might have wanted Clete dead, from people he did business with to that sweet little wife of his." "His wife?" "Yeah, have you seen the poor lady?" "Stitched up like Frankenstein." "You're referring to Mrs. Reed's plastic surgery?" "Old Clete had sent her out to get carved on every time the fancy struck."

"She didn't want me to call her by her husband's last name, just her first name..." "Nan." "You know that's just being friendly, right?" "If I hated my husband enough to have him killed," "I wouldn't want to be killed by his last name either." "I'll remember that." "She wanted the details of how he died, and then she imagined it like she wanted to live it." "If her marriage was that bad..." "I never understand why people don't just leave."

"(Sighs) That's a diversion." "Your eyes went down, so I know it's something you don't wanna talk about." "I don't wanna talk about it." "You think my brother's..."

"I spoke to your husband's ex business partner, Kirk Denby." "Oh, Kirk?" "He's a..." "he's a bankrupt alcoholic." "He said your husband abused you, emotionally and physically." "Abu... well, that..." "That's a terrible thing to say about a man who's dead." "Kirk Denby... he's the one who hated Clete." "He did." "But he didn't have money to hire a professional assassin." "Nan, did your husband abuse you in any way?" "Well, we fought sometimes." "I mean, who doesn't?" "I was looking at those photos." "Your breasts got bigger during your marriage." "That... that is vulgar." "How... are my breasts in any way related to a murder investigation?" "And now they're smaller again." "You had your implants removed the same day your husband was murdered." "(Sighs) Is that something he would have approved of?" "Clete and I discussed the surgery." "I decided to have the implants removed because they caused me pain." "You've had a lot of that in your life, haven't you?" "People snap, Nan, especially when they feel trapped and afraid." " Well, what does that have to do with me?" " I hope nothing." "I know she ordered the hit." "You know it, or you got one of those feelings in your gut?" "(Sighs) He forced his wife to have surgery, repeatedly." "She went from a 32B to a 36E." "Disgusting." "Well, depends on the hips, really." "(Slaps side)" "According to his ex business partner, the guy was a sadistic monster." "You see a 7/8 wrench down there?" "(Huffs) Thing is, Mrs. Reed never had more than $400 in her account. (Tools clatter)" "Her husband controlled the money, too." "Well, $400 ain't buying you a professional assassin." " You're talking 25K at least." " I know." "But maybe she secretly squirreled away some cash." "What, and buried it in the backyard?" "If I find the money and follow it, I can find the hit man as well." "(Sighs) My guess... (Tools clatter)" "He's long gone." "A lady can still hope." "Lady wanna go up on the plane?" " No." " Why not?" " How do I know it's fixed?" " Are you questioning my skills right now?" " Look." "She's good and solid." " Yeah, but is he?" "(Chuckles) In the right hands." "(Laughs) Don't you trust me?" "(Starts engine)" "(Engine rumbling)" "♪" "(Engine revving)" "I, um, I really don't wanna talk to you." " It's my job to be persistent." " Do I, uh, need to contact my attorney?" " Do you need one?" " No." "No, no, no." "I have nothing to hide, Ranger Parker, so..." " Come in." " Thank you, and it's Molly. (Door closes)" "Molly." "Are you moving?" "Yes." "I'm originally from Connecticut, so I'm going back." "I may ask you to stick around." " Because I'm a suspect?" " Yes, ma'am." "I don't lie to people, Nan, and I'm trained to know when people are lying to me." "So you think that by saying that, you're gonna get me to confess to a crime that I didn't commit?" "I think you're lying when you say you loved your husband." "(Mouth full) No training can tell you what is in a person's heart." "Did you know that every time I mention your husband, you cross your arms or touch some part of your body, maybe to reassure yourself that it's yours and not his anymore?" "I've just lost the only man that I've ever been with." "So..." "Maybe I cross my arms because I'm alone and... it reassures me." "I know what kind of man your husband was, Nan." "I know he controlled your body and how he controlled your finances and kept you on a very tight budget despite his success." "You should look around." "I mean, does it look like I've been living in distress for 22 years?" "(Chuckles)" "Is this your collection?" "My husband's." "He collected native American artifacts." " Comanche?" " Um, I'm not sure." "It's something our interior designer helped Clete acquire." " Who's your interior designer?" " Jennifer Jennings." "Why?" "Just conversation." "Uh-huh." "Thank you for your time." "(Bicycle bell dings) Yes, I love this one." "Very rare." "1840-ish." " Beautiful, isn't it?" " Be prettier if it were real." " Come again?" " The vase is fake." "It was fired in a kiln, not dried in the sun." "I know a fair amount about comanche pottery." "I was obsessed with comanches as a kid." "Seeing as your last name is Parker." "Yes, ma'am." "My family goes back to Cynthia Anne and the first settlers of West Texas." "Isn't that interesting?" "The vase is real." "I got it from a dealer in Dallas for $35,000." "Hang on." "(Button clicks)" "Sherry, can you please pull the invoices for the Reed job?" "Of course." "(Click)" "I'll get you the bill of sale and the paperwork to authenticate it." "Did you come here because you thought I cheated a client?" "Actually, no." "I came here to confirm you hadn't. (Door opens)" " Oh." " (Sherry) There you go." "Thank you." "(Footsteps depart, door closes)" "There you go." " Thank you." " Sure." "(Molly) That's your money trail." "That vase was sold at auction 6 weeks ago for $31,000, co-signed by an anonymous seller, who had to be Nan Reed." " Navajo?" " Comanche." "Clete Reed bought that vase for his collection." "Nan replaced it with a fake and sold the original to pay for a hit man." "Easy as apple pie." " Why do you always eat my food?" " (Mouth full) I have motive." " I have money." " But no proof." "(Dish clatters)" " I wanna put a tap on her phone." " You're nowhere near probable cause." "You know how these deals go down." "Half up-front, half on completion." " Maybe she'll contact the hit man." " Fine." "Surveil her." "I'm gonna get 'em both, Lieutenant..." "Nan Reed and the hit man." "Right after you get me another slice of pie." "♪" "I had... one bite." "♪" "(Doorbell dings)" "(Indistinct conversations)" "(Car alarm chirps)" "Whatcha doin', Nan?" "(Camera shutter clicking)" "(Camera shutter clicking)" "(Camera shutter clicking)" "Where you goin'?" "That was fast." "Hello, handsome." "(Camera shutter clicking)" "Bingo." "(Car door closes)" "Sir?" "Can I have a word?" "Texas Ranger." "I need you to hand me the bag." "(Gunshot, horn blares)" "Nan, you're going to jail for commissioning your husband's murder." "Why, because I was in the same park as... as a man who got shot?" "Because I have a photo of you tossing this bag of cash into a trash can right before the man who was shot picked it up." "The assassin who killed your husband killed the middleman because he could identify him." "Assassin?" "Middleman?" "I'm a housewife." "You're a victim of abuse, and your attorney will use that as a mitigating circumstance when the state asks for the death penalty." "You're not in Connecticut anymore, Nan." "It's time you tell me everything you know." "(Turns doorknob) Molly..." "Please, wait." "Don't leave." "(Door closes)" "I-I couldn't..." "I couldn't take it anymore, you know?" "I just..." "I tried, and I... and I thought that if I did everything that my husband wanted, if I... if I had the surgeries, if I..." "if I stayed thin and young-looking, then his hatred for me would go away." "But it never did." "I disgusted my own husband, and then one day" "I just started hating myself the same way that Clete hated me, and I put my head down." "I didn't look up again." "Then what happened?" "What made you hire a hit man?" "I didn't... decide..." "To hire a hit man." "The devil came up from hell one day and found me." "Sat down beside me at a juice bar and told me he could put an end to all my suffering." "That was the man at the park?" "He knew all about my marriage, the surgeries, the fits, the beatings." " How could he know that?" " I don't know." "No name, no number..." "He was just an answer to my prayers." "Told me it would cost me $30,000 to have Clete killed and I could meet him down at a coffee shop downtown when I was ready." "And I didn't do anything at first." " But then..." " Something happened?" "Maybe almost nothing?" "And all the pain came pouring out?" "I know what that feels like, Nan." "What was it?" "He threw away my girl scout cookies." "The next day, I put that vase up for sale." "Nice job, Ranger." "After 22 years of trying to make a wicked man happy, she finally snapped." "Sent him to hell." "Police tossed the apartment of the dead bag man." "(Rustle) No leads to who he was working for, but they did find this." "Frequent customer card from the coffee shop where he did his business with Nan Reed." "He's a regular." "Stamped nine times." "Tenth cup is free." "He had other clients." "You're for real?" "I thought all rangers were dudes." " Have you seen that man?" " Yeah." "A few times." "He used to come in and chat up women." " Like this one?" " She was one." " She was sad." "Sorta shy." " Who else?" "They all looked the same to me..." "Middle-aged, defeated, desperate." "Do you know any of their names?" "One." "She was more confident than your girl in the picture." " Had a lot more..." "Going on." " You're a real Dr. Freud." "I understand women." "Maybe that's why they like me so much." "She asked me to give her a call, but I'm taken." "At least until someone better comes along." "♪" "(Sitar music playing in distance)" "(Birds chirping)" "(Gasps) Ow!" "(Laughs)" "Hello?" "Ow." "Hello?" "I'm Ranger Parker." "I'm here to speak to Maggie Tanner." "You got her." "What can I do for ya?" "I'd like to speak to you for a few minutes about your husband's unfortunate passing." " My husband's right here." " The one before." "Bobby Dean was much older..." "I think about 32 years." " You think?" " Well, he always lied about his age." "(Ice cubes rattling) Not that I cared." "Old is old, and rich is rich." "(Tea pouring, ice rattling) Our marriage was contractual." "He wanted pretty on his arm." "I wanted money on my finger." "But then he died." "Yes, he did." "Heart stopped, I guess." "He tipped off his fishing boat." "He had his nitro pills with him." "Just didn't get one under his tongue before the ticker blew up." "They never did find Bobby Dean's body, did they?" " No, not yet." " It's been three years?" "Well, it'll turn up eventually." "Won't be pretty." "(Ice cubes rattle)" "(Tea pouring)" "Do you know this man?" "(Dog barking in distance)" "Uh... nope." "Don't know him." "Should I?" "I have a witness who says he met you at a coffee shop." " The Texas Grind?" " The Texas Grind?" "Well, now I like men, but I gotta tell ya," "I forget them as easily as I meet them, that is until one sticks, like Andy." " Can I get you a bite to eat?" " No, no." "I'm good." "You sure?" "(Knife slicing)" "But if you don't mind, who's your designer?" " House or clothes?" " House." "That's a beautiful screen." "That's Jennifer Jennings." "She got that for me." "I can get you her number if you like." "No, actually, I know exactly where to find her." "Well, you give Jenny-Jen a big ol' hug for me." "Oh, I will." "And I'm gonna dredge the river and find your husband's body and make sure the coroner finds a clear cause of death, just in case there was foul play involved." "(Door opens)" "(Molly) It's turning out to be a pretty good day." "Well, you sound happy." "I've got a lead on my case, and tomorrow Jake Colton will no longer be my husband." "Are you sure you wanna give up the perks of being a senator's wife?" " I don't wanna be anybody's wife." " Oh, so you're that girl." "I'm working on a case where the husband forced his wife to have four tummy tucks." "Not exactly in a wedding bell mood." "(Chuckles)" "(Cell phone beeps)" "How long have you been an interior designer?" "It's always been a passion." "But it didn't become a business until after your husband was murdered." "(Huffs) And here I was, thinking you needed advice on curtains." "(Chuckles) He was mugged in an alley." "Is that correct?" "Stabbed in the heart with a hunting knife." " Dramatic." " No witnesses, nobody ever arrested?" "(Swallows) Yes." "It was a tragedy." "Your husband was killed in an alley behind a hotel where he rented a room several times a week?" "We lived way outside of town." "Sometimes Nick stayed in Austin on business." "Your husband was killed just after 3:00 in the afternoon." "If I had to guess, he had a lunch meeting at the hotel." "Actually, he rented a room and then ordered from room service a $200 bottle of champagne." "Marriages can be so complicated, Ranger Parker." "How about yours?" "You're married to Senator Colton, isn't that right?" "Separated." "Oh, yes." "I heard the divorce is contentious." " Now how would you know that?" " I decorate for some politicians." "People talk, especially when you're in their homes." "You do have a good supply of clients, don't you?" "After my husband died, I never felt the call to remarry." "I built a business instead." "Could've gone back to Missouri, where you were born on a farm." "Clearly, that's not a question." "Your father was an outdoorsman, a hunter..." "Skilled." "He taught you." "(Click)" "We've spoken for several minutes now, and I'm still not sure of the purpose of your visit." "Does the D.P.S. office need a redo?" "(Chuckles) No, we could never afford you." " Well, I am rather expensive." " Yeah." "Yeah, my guess..." "about 30 grand a job." "Mm, that would be on the low end." "My level of expertise does not come cheaply." "Bobby Dean Tanner..." "Fell off his boat." "Clete Reed..." "Throat slashed." "Jason Noonan suffered a grand mal seizure, even though he had no former neurological issues." "And you..." "You redecorated all their houses." "Maybe they die when they get my bill." "(Bird calling in distance, crickets chirping)" "(Dog barking in distance)" "(Door opens)" "I couldn't understand how the middleman knew so much about the lives of these women, but now it makes sense." "Women talk to their decorators." "She was in their homes and got inside their minds." "(Wine pouring) But now I'm inside hers." "She'd be stupid to try and kill anybody else while I'm watching." " A lot of unhappy people out there, huh?" " Yeah, I was one of 'em." "Come on." "Give me that backstory now." "(Sighs)" "Nope." "No, that I won't do." " I won't bring Jake into our life." " It's not about him." "It's about me, understanding that part of your past." "It means something to me." "(Sighs) Why?" "At some point, it'd be nice to be trusted." " I trust you. (Chuckles)" " Yeah. (Clears throat)" "Try me." "See if I run." "(Kisses)" "(Sighs)" "Oh, you are so gonna wish you didn't walk out on that limb." "(Moans softly)" " Go on..." " Get in my plane." " That was a cheap trick." " Said you trusted me." " Anything else." " Anything?" "(Gavel bangs)" "(Man) All rise." "(Chairs scrape floor)" "Superior Court for the State of Texas, county of Travis, the honorable Judge Walter Garrity presiding." "(Lowered voice) I don't believe it." "He's a friend of Jake's." "(Lowered voice) Everybody's a friend of Jake's." "Be seated." "Senator Colton..." "Ranger Parker." "Nice to see you again." "Now I have before me your petition for divorce." "Yes, your Honor, the couple's been separated for nearly a year." "Their differences are irreconcilable." " Senator, you feel the same?" " No, judge, I don't." "I believe there's hope." "I'm a very hopeful person." "Well, it does take two to be irreconcilable, doesn't it?" "Sort of like takes two not to tango?" "I thought we were here to just sign the final papers." "Now, Ranger Parker, marriage is an institution highly valued by the state, the community, not to mention the Church, and if there is a hope of saving any marriage, we all share a duty to make that attempt." "This marriage is over." "I am the judge here, Ranger Parker, and it ain't over till I say it's over." "Now I'm gonna put this petition on hold until you can undergo a course in marriage counseling." " Your Honor..." " Wasn't that clear?" "Thank you, Judge." "We'll give it our best shot." "(Huffs)" "Why are you doing this?" "(Door closes)" "Uh, excuse me, fellas." "I..." " Why are you doing this?" " Easy." "Careful." "Because I believe our marriage is worth fighting for." "You don't control me." "You don't have that right anymore." "If you really wanted out, you would've already told the world what you think happened." "What happened?" "That the good and honorable Senator beat his wife?" " Molly..." " Sign the damn papers!" "Just a few counseling sessions." "(Sighs)" "Your lawyer has to fight this, and if he can't, we need to get you a new one." "Yeah, for a thousand dollars an hour." "(Door opens and closes) No wonder women hire hit men." "I'll kill that son of a bitch for free... (Kisses)" "If I could find my damn rifle." "You seen my varmint gun?" " In the tack room." " No." "Don't forget you have to take Lu to swim practice tonight." "Ohh." " D-don't tell me." "Don't..." " Baby, I'm sorry." " I can't." " You're busy again?" "(Sighs) You need to tell me what is going on right now," " ...and I want the truth." " I have to go into town." " Why?" "(Huffs)" " What is this?" "The Mexican Inquisition?" "I need parts, okay?" "The irrigation system in the back pasture is all messed up." "I need to fix it, that's all." "And after the sun sets is the only time the stores are open?" "Don't do that, Molls." "I'm not one of your suspects." "Fine." "Go." "I'll take Lu." "It's a pleasure to spend time with my children." "(Lulu) Why don't you wanna swim, daddy?"
