"Previously on damages:" "Josh Reston." "Just got a job reporting crime at the Manhattan observer." "This is a nice place." "What did you think of Alex Benjamin?" "She's just what you're looking for." "I'm glad you like her." "Patty just called and she hired me." "Tobin would've needed someone he trusted to conduct his business in the Caribbean." "Mr. Zedeck, my father told me about the money." " I need proof you can produce." " What kind of proof?" "Carol, I am really sorry for your family." "Ms. Marchetti?" "The initial M.E report on Danielle Marchetti." "She died of heart failure." "Same as Louis Tobin." "There's got to be a connection between the two." "Tell me the truth about Danielle Marchetti." "Louis had a child with her." "Yes." "I think I know who the Tobins used to move money into the Caribbean." "Danielle Marchetti's daughter." "Hello." "I woke you up." "W... what time is it?" "It's almost 4:00." "I thought you'd be asleep." "I was about to leave a message." "You're okay?" "Is everything okay?" "I'm having a few friends over for dinner on Thursday." "Hoping you could join." "Thursday night?" "Yeah." "Yeah, sure." "It's okay." "Good." "Go back to sleep." "Everything okay?" "Yeah, everything's fine." "Ms. Marchetti." "Welcome." "Nice to see you, Mary." "I'll take you back for your deposit." "Excuse me, sir." "Is the girl a friend of yours?" "What girl?" "Ah, I must have been mistaken." "Is there something I can help you with?" "No, I'm doing great." "Ah, sorry for asking, sir, but do you have an account here at the Royal Antiguan Bank?" "No, I'm meeting someone here." "We're going sightseeing." "Well, sir, I'm afraid if you don't have an account with us, I'm going to have to ask you to wait outside." "Oh." "No problem." "Maybe you can, uh, help me with this." "If I head over to the Chesterton dockyard, where's the best place to see the regatta?" "Well, uh, this is a bank, sir." "Uh, perhaps you should check with your hotel concierge." "My apologies." "I'll, uh, I'll wait outside." "What's the matter?" "You don't seem yourself." "Uh, my mother passed away." "Oh, dear." "I'm so sorry." "Thank you." "You know where to sign." "Okay." "You sure you don't want to count it?" "It's always all there." "I'm so sorry about your mother." "How many branches of the Royal Antiguan Bank are there?" "Only the one." "And Tessa Marchetti didn't visit any other banks?" "That's right." "She must have an account at R.A.B." "They clearly know her over there." "Now we have the name of a bank." "It's a start." "Do you want me to head back to New York?" "No, stay down there." "See if you can get Tessa to talk." "Okay." "Yes, my friend." "I have your list right here." "One of the names you requested that I watch out for turned up." "Which one is it?" "Thomas Shayes." "Oh, son of a bitch." "Customs confirmed that he entered the country and has yet to leave us." "He needs to be watched." "Can you do that?" "Anything you ask I can make possible, Mr. Zedeck." "Good." "Let me know what he's doing." "No need to worry." "You have yourself a good day now, my friend." "Yeah, yeah." "You, too." "Goddamn it!" "Here's the list of possessions your office seized from the Tobin family's home." "I filed an injunction with judge Reilly to prevent you from auctioning off any item marked in red." "Marilyn Tobin actually believes she has a right to keep her chippendale desk?" "Absolutely." "The desk, the clocks, the mink coat." "Every item on that list belonged to Marilyn's mother." "I didn't take you for a hunter." "Excuse me?" "Or maybe you fancy yourself more as a warrior." "African art is one of Marilyn's many passions." "Having confiscated most of it, I suspect you knew that." "You let Mrs. Tobin do your decorating?" "She enjoys it." "Well..." "Judge Reilly is not gonna stop me from selling any of these." "But while I'm here..." "I want to offer you a deal." "My clients aren't guilty of anything." "They're not interested in a deal." "I'm not talking about your clients." "I'm talking about you." "There's still time for you to walk away from this case, before it destroys what's left of your reputation." "That's very gracious of you." "But I'm not worried." "So after 27 years, you're entirely loyal to the Tobins." "You probably think you're like family to them." "Other than my loyalties, Patty, is there anything else you'd like to discuss?" "You're not a Tobin, Mr. Winstone." "Keep acting like a Tobin... and I'll punish you like one." "It's open." "Hello?" "Ellen?" "Come in." "I'm sorry, am I early?" "Early for what?" "For, uh, the dinner party." "You called and invited me." "No, that's for tomorrow." "Tomorrow night." "Friday." "But you said Thursday." "Did I?" "I..." "I don't think so." "Hi, Ellen." "Oh." "Hi." "You remember Alex." "Yeah, of course." "Nice to see you." "I'm told that you were very helpful with her interview process." "I'm glad to hear that." "I'm, uh, just bringing Alex up to speed on the Tobin case." "I'd invite you to join..." "No, no." "You're talking shop." "Sorry about the mix-up." "My mistake." "So same time tomorrow night then?" "We'll see." "Is this the bottle you asked for?" "That's perfect." "I like Ellen." "You must miss having her around." "Let's have some wine." "Thanks for coming in, Ms. Parsons." "I was hoping you could help me with..." "you know, clear up a few details." "Do you... do you recognize this handbag?" "Yeah, I, uh, I had one just like it." "'Cause we, uh, we found this... inside it." "So, I mean, I have to think this is yours." "Right?" "I guess so." "I want you to tell me how this... bag ended up bloody in... in... in a homeless man's shopping cart." "I..." "I couldn't say." "Huntley why not?" "Because it was stolen." "You were talking in your sleep last night." "Really?" "What was I saying?" "Well, I couldn't really understand." "You were mumbling." "But, uh, do you remember the dream?" "No, I don't think I had one." "So did you find anything out on Alex Benjamin?" "Ah, just the basics." "You know, she was born in the UK, came to the States to go to Princeton, graduated Yale law." "Hmm." "So she's a idiot." "Uh, yeah." "But, uh..." "Why do you want to know about this girl?" "I'm just curious." "I like Alex." "You're not jealous that she's working for Patty?" "No, not at all." "She deserves it." "She's very talented." "In fact, I was wondering if you could write an article on her." "What kind of article?" "Like a personal interest piece on a rising star in the legal world." "Yeah?" "Joe, it's me." "Hey." "Sorry." "I thought we were meeting in an hour." "No." "You know, I'm sorry, I have to cancel." "Everything okay?" "I'm going out of town." "An old friend's sick." "Who's that?" "Just... someone from law school." "How long will you be gone?" "Just a day." "Okay." "I'm sorry." "I hope everything works out." "Yeah." "Me, too." "So I'm on my cell phone if you need anything, okay?" " You all right?" " Yeah." "All right." "Okay." "Tessa Marchetti?" "Yes." "Hi, I'm Tom Shayes." "I'm an attorney handling the Tobin case." "I'm working with the trustee's office in New York." "I'm sorry, I don't know anything about that." "Well, good, then I won't take up too much of your time." "I, um, I understand that your mother passed away recently." "I'm sorry to hear that." "Thank you." "I'm afraid it's my job to ask you a few questions." "Do you mind if I sit?" "Yes." "I saw you go into a bank and I, um..." "Just curious what kind of business you have there." "Why?" "Look, Tessa, I could subpoena you, but I don't want to have to do that." "I think it would be easier on both of us if you just talk to me now." "Okay." "I get my paycheck from the airlines." "I walk in, I sit down, I sign some documents, they give me my money." "Very fascinating stuff." "Documents?" "What kind of documents?" "I get my money in." "U.S. dollars, so I have to sign documents." "It's protocol." "How many documents do you sign?" "What difference does that make?" "Might be important." "Just try and think." "I don't know..." "Three." "I think three." "Tessa, one last thing." "Are you a citizen of Antigua?" "I was born here, but I have dual citizenship." "Am I in trouble?" "Not if you keep telling the truth." "Thank you." "Why me?" "Well, I've been following the Tobin case." "And I heard that you were just hired by Patty Hewes." "That's right." "Congratulations by the way." "Thank you." "So I was hoping to write a feature on a young lawyer on the rise." "As long as you don't ask me anything about" "Patty or the Tobin case." "Oh, absolutely." "Okay, then." "Do you mind if I record this?" "Hey, give us a minute, would you?" "Want a drink, Joe?" "Not right now." "Thanks." "Did you give your mother that sable yet?" "I will do that." "And, uh... thank you for the money." "Ah, so you trust me now." "You said there was a problem." "You know about Antigua?" "The bank, yeah." "It was in the information my father left." "Well, I have a contact down there and he said that Patty Hewes sent her partner on a little trip to the Caribbean." "How does Patty Hewes know about Antigua?" "I have to tell you something, Joe." "Ben." "Sure thing." "Your father used a courier to help move the money." "Yeah?" "Who did he use?" "Someone he could trust." "Family." "I'm..." "I don't understand you." "Your father had a daughter, Joe, with Danielle Marchetti." "What?" "I'm sorry to be the one to tell you, but it's true." "I guess Patty Hewes, uh... found out about her." "How?" "How did she find out?" "Someone must have told her." "Do you have any idea who?" "I don't think Tessa Marchetti is aware of what she's actually doing." "What documents is she signing?" "She says they're for cashing her paychecks into U.S. dollars." "Is she right?" "Well, only two forms are required for that transaction." "She says she... she signs three each week." "They're using the third form to move money." "I think she may be signing something she doesn't understand." "I'll bring this information to Judge Reilly." "See if he can pressure the Antiguan government to give us access to her account." "Tom, we're making progress." "Thank you." "So what's up?" "Well, I wanted to warn you actually." "Warn me?" "About what?" "A writer from The Observer sent me an article on you." "He wanted a quote from me about working for Patty in my first year." "Did you read it?" "Yeah, it's great." "Very flattering." "I love what you say about law school versus the real world." "So what's the problem?" "Patty." "She'll hate it." "She doesn't want her attorneys promoting themselves." "Says it shines a negative light on the firm." "Got it." "I should stop the piece." "Well, I hope you don't mind, but I already tried." "I asked the journalist, but he said he's going to run it anyway." "What should I do?" "Get in front of the situation." "Take it to Patty, and tell her you made a mistake." "It'll be fine." "Trust me." "Pretty terrific, huh?" "What?" "The birds." "Can I help you, sir?" "Yes." "Um..." "I'm, uh, here to see Barbara Wiggins." "One moment please." "Wouldn't want to miss her birthday." "Oh, um..." "You know, actually, uh..." "What's your name, sir?" "Leonard Winstone." "Mr. Winstone, would you mind stepping to the door." "Okay." "I find it's always best to discuss these things privately." "What things?" "I'm sorry, I don't know what we're talking about." "Well, um, the fact is that..." "I'm sorry to be the one to inform you, but Barbara Wiggins passed away." "When?" "Almost five months ago." "I don't understand." "Why wasn't I notified if it was five months ago?" "Well, it says here that her husband, Mr. Albert Wiggins, asked to make the arrangements, and he took care of everything." "Mr. Wiggins did?" "Yes, um..." "Mr. Wiggins saw to all the particulars." "I see." "Well..." "I'm sure dying in your care was a blessing." "Hey." "Hey." "All right, um, so we have both Louis Tobin and" "Danielle Marchetti dying of potassium overdoses." "But we still can't find any definitive link between the deaths." "Who's the last family member to see Louis the night he died?" "Joe." "What do you think, Joe helped his father commit suicide?" "If he did, he might also have something to do with." "Danielle's death." "All right, so let's bring him down here and question him." "No, I don't want to give him time to prepare a response." "Be better to catch him off guard and see how he reacts." "Sure you don't want one, honey?" "No, mom, and you shouldn't either." "You're losing weight, Carol." "Screw depression." "At lunch, I want to see you eat something." "I'm going down to get some cigarettes." "Do you need anything?" "No, thanks." "Now is not a good time for you to fall apart on me." "I'll meet you at the lobby." "What?" "Did you talk to Patty Hewes?" "I'm worried about Carol." "You need to take it easier on her, mom." "I asked you a question." "Yes, I talked to Ms. Hewes." "So what?" "Did you tell her about the daughter that dad had with Danielle?" "There's no point in protecting your father anymore." "Yes, there is." "Open it." "What is this?" "The tip of the iceberg." "What do you mean?" "Dad had a plan to take care of us." "Before he died, he hid some money." "How much?" "A lot of money, mom." "We're going to be okay, understand?" "But I promise you, as soon as this case is done," "I'm gonna take everyone on a real vacation, okay." "But, honey, I gotta go, all right?" "All right, I love you, and I'll speak to you later." "Bye-bye." "I want to talk to you about miss Tessa Marchetti." "At the bank, I could see you have an interest in her." "Yes, I do." "You will never get the information you need from the institution." "I know about your country's privacy laws." "I can help you circumvent that problem." "I can get access to her account." "In exchange for what?" "This is my daughter." "Hmm." "She's an angel, but she's very sick." "I'm sorry to hear that." "My wife and I lack resources to seek treats abroad." "In exchange for visas to the U.S., I can get you what you need." "I see." "I realize it is an unusual request." "I hope I have not offended you in anyway." "No, no, no." "I'll see what I can do." "I would be most grateful." "But sir, please, don't come back to the bank." "If you need to reach me, call this number." "Joe Tobin?" "I'm Ellen Parsons." "I work for the district attorney." "How'd you find me?" "Know your hotel's across the street." "Well, talk to my lawyer, ok?" "It's personal." "I thought you should know the actual cause of your father's death." "It was a heart attack." "I read the coroner's report." "Well, we have reason to believe it was a suicide, most likely caused by elevated levels of potassium, the same chemical used in lethal injections." "Listen, uh, miss.." "Parsons." "Miss Parsons, um, I was the one who found his body, okay?" "There were no... uh... chemicals." "He was an old man with a bad heart under too much stress." "I'm sorry." "You're probably right." "That makes sense." " But that doesn't explain Danielle Marchetti." " What about her?" "She also died of a heart attack from a potassium overdose." "I don't know anything about it." "So..." "Well, then..." "I'll let you enjoy your dinner." "We're all set." "I was able to secure three visas for your contact." "Great." "You make any progress with the judge?" "No, his people are having a tough time trying to find an official in Antigua we can trust." " I don't doubt it." " There is a man in the finance ministry who's been cooperative in the past." "So we're trying to reach out to him." "If I can meet with him while I'm down here, I should do that." "I'll let you know if we can arrange something." "Heading home?" "Or do you have time for one more customer?" "Sir, I'm sorry." "The bank is closed." "You know who I am?" "Yes, I think so." "Good." "I have one quick question about a recent transaction." "What kind of transaction?" "Between yourself and an American." "Look who's here." "If it ain't prince shit." "Welcome home." "Why didn't you tell me she died?" "Oh, you know about that?" "I went to visit her." "You think I wasn't gonna find out?" "Why didn't you tell me?" "Why the hell would I do that?" "You never gave a shit about your mother anyway." "Grab that trash, will ya?" "You've been cashing those checks I sent for her." "That money was for mom, not you!" "You calling me a thief?" "That's exactly what I'm calling you!" "You open your trap again, you little prick, and we're gonna have problems." "Go for it, dad." "I am right here." "I seen you on TV, defending that family." "Hiding their crimes, huh?" "It's almost funny." "You're a bigger fraud than they are." "You're gonna get that money back to me." "No, actually, I'm not." "You're gonna keep those checks coming." "In fact, let's double 'em up." "Why would I possibly do that?" "Because I got a big mouth, Mr. Winstone." "What's that family gonna do when they find out you've been lying to them all these years?" "You ever wonder that?" "What?" "Forensics came back on the girl's stolen bag." "And?" "We've got an I.D. on a partial fingerprint." "Whose is it?" "There's only one match in the system." "Dates back to 1984." "Guy was a small-time grifter, a petty thief by the name of Lester Wiggins." "And the blood, was it Wiggins' as well?" "No way to tell." "DNA database doesn't go back that far." "Okay, well, I guess you better find this... this Lester Winnows." ""Wiggins."" "Just find him." "Righty-o." "Toodle-oo." "Very complimentary." "It was wrong for me to grant the interview." "I should have asked you first." "Yes." "You should have." "Sorry." "So what... have we learned here?" "That I've got a big mouth." "And if someone flatters you, you have a hard time keeping it shut." "The journalist's name is Josh Reston?" "Yes." "Do you know him?" "No." "Never met him before." "How do you think he found you?" "Uh, he heard you hired me and called." "Just like that, out of the blue?" "Yeah, I g... guess so." "Am I missing something?" "Do yourself a favor." "Don't talk to strangers." " Mr. Simmons." " Yeah?" "Hi." "I'm, uh, Ellen Parsons from the DA's office." "I know the, uh, police have already spoken with you." "Thank you for agreeing to meet with me." "No problem." "I was real sorry about Ms. Marchetti." "I mean, God, it was a shock, you know?" "Yeah." "You were working the day she died." "I was hoping you might remember if anyone visited her." "Well..." "I'm a doorman, I remember faces." "That's my job." "So that man there, did he... enter or leave the building that day?" "That's Joe Tobin, right?" "I recognized him from the papers." "He came by, but it was a couple days before." "He wasn't there at all that day?" "No." " Are you sure?" " Positive." "Who's this?" "That's Joe's sister, Carol." "Why do you ask?" "Because she was there." "Oh, you want the Tobins in jail?" "Uh, well, that's very decisive of you, Jim, but we have a little problem... there's no evidence the family knew anything about the fraud." "Well, if you want to fire me, fire me, but until then, cut the bullshit and quit questioning my professional integrity." "I didn't mean to interrupt." "You know who that was?" " District attorney?" " Yeah." "I have the best conviction record on his staff, but the man has the memory of a second grader." "So, if I don't put a Tobin in jail, be out on my ass by this summer." "I know we've spoken about this before, but I really think Patty Hewes would be a useful ally." "You've been here less than a year." "You really want to dictate strategy?" "No." "I'm sorry." "Why don't you forget about Patty Hewes." "You work for me now." "And over here, we prosecute criminals." "We don't bill by the hour." "I just think Patty has a good chance of getting the victims their money back." "You really don't get it." "I don't give a shit about the victims' money." "My job is to prove the Tobins are guilty." "You understand?" "Perfectly." "Okay, good." "Now, what did you get from the doorman?" "Please tell me a Tobin had something to do with Danielle Marchetti's death." "I didn't get anything." "I'm sorry." "I've arranged the visas." "If you get me your family's information, I can have them tomorrow." "Thank you." " I won't be needing them." " Why not?" "I'm afraid I cannot help you with the information you requested." "You've been threatened." " Threatened?" " No." "I've reconsidered." "What about your sick daughter?" "She's feeling much better." " No, she's not." " I'm sorry." "I cannot help you." "Take my advice, sir." "Stop asking questions." "Leave this island." "Yes, I knew that your father had a daughter with Danielle." "He didn't want the family to know, so I respected his wishes." "You can't keep these things from me, Lenny." "It was something that your father... or I will cut you out of the whole thing." "The money." "The... the family." "All of it." "You understand?" "I understand." "Something else." "I was approached by some woman in the DA's office." "They're looking into Danielle's death." "Let Zedeck know I want to meet." "I'll call him." "Okay, good." "How's your friend?" "Okay?" "Yeah, doing much better." "Thanks for asking." "Okay." "Sorry about the confusion the other night." "No problem." "So, Josh reston is back in town?" "I didn't know." "You had him interview Alex for a piece you knew I wouldn't like." "And then you sent Alex to apologize." "Why would I do that?" "To show me that you could get to her." "You're upset that I replaced you." "I think Alex is great." "She's very excited about working at the firm." "So, you're not upset that I replaced you?" "Patty..." "You hired someone." "You didn't replace me." "Anyway, Alex Benjamin isn't why I'm here." "I have some information." "What kind of information?" "I think Carol Tobin may have killed Danielle Marchetti." "Why do you say that?" "Danielle's doorman told me that Carol visited her the day she died." "What does your boss think?" "I haven't told him." "So, why are you telling me?" "Because Gates is only interested in making arrests." "But if you can get to Carol, you can use her as leverage to find the Tobins' money." "Maybe." "I think it's time we worked together on this." "I thought that you had moved on." "The case is what matters, Patty." "I want you to find that money." "Your contact's name is Horatio Emanuel." "Thank you, Your Honor." "You'll see he worked in the country's financial services regulatory commission for over a decade." "If anyone down there knows how Louis Tobin set up his accounts and started moving money, it's Mr. Emanuel." "I appreciate the trouble you went through to vet him." "May I advise you here, Patty?" "See him in person." "Word is a lot of people have a lot to protect down there." "I think he'll speak more freely face-to-face." "Sir, we respect your country's need to protect the identity of account holders." "But as a friend of the U.S. government, I'm sure you recognize the importance we place on locating Louis." "Tobin's funds." "Of course." "And it is an honor to have you both visiting." "How may I be of assistance?" "We need access to this bank account." "I will do everything possible to provide you what you need." "In the meantime, enjoy your stay on the island." "Cheers."
