Maya Ruiz. Tell me about her.
177
00:07:15,652 --> 00:07:17,741
Who?
The girl you've
been threatening.
178
00:07:17,785 --> 00:07:19,264
I don't know
what you're talking about.
179
00:07:19,308 --> 00:07:22,703
[grunts]
Oh, strike one.
180
00:07:22,746 --> 00:07:24,966
You remember now?
181
00:07:25,009 --> 00:07:26,750
"Don't make me ruin you?"
182
00:07:26,794 --> 00:07:28,273
And making
threatening calls?
183
00:07:28,317 --> 00:07:30,928
That's not what you think ...ght. Strike two.
184
00:07:32,495 --> 00:07:34,541
You running out of time,
and like you told Maya,
185
00:07:34,584 --> 00:07:37,065
"Clock is ticking."
So you ready to sing...
186
00:07:37,108 --> 00:07:38,283
soprano?
187
00:07:38,327 --> 00:07:39,981
Okay.
188
00:07:42,897 --> 00:07:45,334
Seriously, it was nothing.
189
00:07:45,377 --> 00:07:46,422
Maya was...
190
00:07:46,466 --> 00:07:48,119
She needed
some extra money,
191
00:07:48,163 --> 00:07:49,904
She was writing my papers
for me.
192
00:07:49,947 --> 00:07:51,253
Why the texts?
193
00:07:51,296 --> 00:07:53,385
She missed a deadline
on an essay.
194
00:07:53,429 --> 00:07:54,909
I was gonna get an incomplete,
195
00:07:54,952 --> 00:07:56,432
lose my eligibility.
196
00:07:56,476 --> 00:07:58,434
So I sent those
as, uh, motivation.
197
00:07:58,478 --> 00:08:00,262
But that's it.
198
00:08:00,305 --> 00:08:02,569
And I didn't call her.
We were good.
199
00:08:02,612 --> 00:08:05,876
She gave me the paper
the night before last.
200
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,443
But it was weird.
201
00:08:07,487 --> 00:08:09,924
She wanted to meet late,
and she looked a wreck.
202
00:08:09,967 --> 00:08:11,403
Said she'd been
injured in a fall.
203
00:08:11,447 --> 00:08:12,753
That's why she needed the pills.
204
00:08:12,796 --> 00:08:14,972
-Hold on. What pills?
-Oxy.
205
00:08:15,016 --> 00:08:16,931
Instead of cash payment,
Maya wanted pills.
206
00:08:16,974 --> 00:08:19,803
How many? How many pills?
207
00:08:19,847 --> 00:08:21,675
Maybe 20?
208
00:08:21,718 --> 00:08:23,328
[tires screech]
209
00:08:23,372 --> 00:08:25,069
[pounding on door]
210
00:08:26,070 --> 00:08:27,332
-Hey.
-I've been calling.
211
00:08:27,376 --> 00:08:28,508
-Where's Maya?
-She's napping.
212
00:08:32,642 --> 00:08:33,600
Maya?
213
00:08:33,643 --> 00:08:35,515
Maya.
214
00:08:35,558 --> 00:08:36,951
Call an ambulance.
215
00:08:36,994 --> 00:08:37,995
Maya? Wake up.
Hey! Stay with me.
216
00:08:45,263 --> 00:08:47,396
[monitor beeping steadily]
217
00:08:58,015 --> 00:09:00,496
[line ringing]
218
00:09:00,540 --> 00:09:02,498
Hey, it's Delilah.
Leave a message.
219
00:09:02,542 --> 00:09:04,805
[beeps]
Hey, it's Mom.
220
00:09:04,848 --> 00:09:07,851
I just wanted to, um, say...
221
00:09:09,810 --> 00:09:11,072
Hey.
222
00:09:17,034 --> 00:09:19,123
She's still not talking.
223
00:09:19,167 --> 00:09:21,996
And the only thing she said was
that we should have let her die.
224
00:09:22,039 --> 00:09:25,042
Oh, tranquilo, papi.
225
00:09:25,086 --> 00:09:27,262
-Tranquilo.
-Remember how you told me
226
00:09:27,305 --> 00:09:29,177
how Maya used
to keep you strong?
227
00:09:29,220 --> 00:09:32,615
Now it's time for you
to be her lifeline
228
00:09:32,659 --> 00:09:33,747
while I figure this thing out.
229
00:09:33,790 --> 00:09:35,618
Okay?
230
00:09:35,662 --> 00:09:37,577
I know. I know.
231
00:09:39,056 --> 00:09:41,102
[phone ringing]
232
00:09:43,060 --> 00:09:44,714
Harry, what'd you find out?
233
00:09:44,758 --> 00:09:46,455
HARRY:
This is from outside
of Maya's building
234
00:09:46,498 --> 00:09:48,936
the night she ran in there
like she was being chased.
235
00:09:48,979 --> 00:09:51,025
Who's the guy?
236
00:09:51,068 --> 00:09:52,679
HARRY:
Identified him
as one Zev Petrus.
237
00:09:52,722 --> 00:09:54,028
Technically, I identified him.
238
00:09:54,071 --> 00:09:55,420
Hmm, technically
I didn't specify.
239
00:09:55,464 --> 00:09:57,379
He's an ex-cop
turned P.I. fixer.
240
00:09:57,422 --> 00:09:58,989
He's shown up at my bar
a few times
241
00:09:59,033 --> 00:10:00,556
tailing spouses,
digging for dirt.
242
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,732
I've had to throw him out
more than once.
243
00:10:02,776 --> 00:10:06,649
He specializes in dirty laundry
and celebrity divorces.
244
00:10:06,693 --> 00:10:08,216
Sounds like a real scumbag.
245
00:10:08,259 --> 00:10:10,087
Yeah, well,
he's an effective scumbag.
246
00:10:10,131 --> 00:10:12,742
An expensive scumbag. Known
for his ability to intimidate.
247
00:10:12,786 --> 00:10:14,657
Hiring him to threaten
a college kid
248
00:10:14,701 --> 00:10:16,877
is like using a battering ram
to get through a screen door.
249
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,314
Okay, so who brought in
-the big guns?
-I don't know.
250
00:10:19,357 --> 00:10:21,055
But as a bottom-feeding
dumpster diver,
251
00:10:21,098 --> 00:10:22,883
he's, uh, he's been known
to, uh,
252
00:10:22,926 --> 00:10:24,711
do opposition research
for political candidates.
253
00:10:24,754 --> 00:10:26,930
Didn't you say that Maya
was interning at a campaign?
254
00:10:26,974 --> 00:10:28,889
Yeah. Sinead Keller.
255
00:10:28,932 --> 00:10:30,325
Sinead Keller? Really?
256
00:10:30,368 --> 00:10:31,413
Girl crush?
257
00:10:31,456 --> 00:10:32,849
A little bit.
258
00:10:32,893 --> 00:10:34,677
They say that she's super smart,
progressive.
259
00:10:34,721 --> 00:10:36,331
Like, the "real deal."
260
00:10:36,374 --> 00:10:37,985
Yeah, and it's
a pretty high-stakes
261
00:10:38,028 --> 00:10:39,290
race for mayor this year.
262
00:10:39,334 --> 00:10:41,075
Tons of money pouring in
from both sides.
263
00:10:41,118 --> 00:10:42,206
Maybe this has to do with that?
264
00:10:42,250 --> 00:10:43,947
For Maya to attempt suicide?
265
00:10:43,991 --> 00:10:46,210
From all accounts, this
Zev Petrus guy makes Pellicano
266
00:10:46,254 --> 00:10:47,908
look like, I don't know,
Mr. Rogers.
267
00:10:47,951 --> 00:10:49,953
Who knows what he did
to threaten her?
268
00:10:49,997 --> 00:10:53,304
Well, sounds like someone
I'm gonna enjoy speaking to.
269
00:10:53,348 --> 00:10:55,655
And I can check out
Sinead's campaign offices.
270
00:10:55,698 --> 00:10:58,135
See if anyone there knew that
Maya was getting threatened.
271
00:10:58,179 --> 00:11:00,094
Or if he was threatening
anyone else there.
272
00:11:00,137 --> 00:11:02,444
Plus it'll give me a chance to
see what all the hype is about.
273
00:11:02,487 --> 00:11:04,620
MAN:
So coffee's this way.
274
00:11:04,664 --> 00:11:06,448
Bathrooms that way.
275
00:11:06,491 --> 00:11:09,625
Uh, the Wi-Fi password
is KellerCan2021.
276
00:11:09,669 --> 00:11:11,453
You know, Maya
said this office had
277
00:11:11,496 --> 00:11:13,194
a great vibe.
She was right.
278
00:11:13,237 --> 00:11:15,413
-Oh, my God, Maya recruited you.
-Yeah.
279
00:11:15,457 --> 00:11:17,198
She's such a star.
280
00:11:17,241 --> 00:11:18,765
The higher-ups love her.
281
00:11:18,808 --> 00:11:20,375
-Really?
-Especially Sinead.
282
00:11:20,418 --> 00:11:21,550
Maya is definitely
283
00:11:21,593 --> 00:11:24,292
the golden girl
around here.
284
00:11:24,335 --> 00:11:25,859
Good morning, team.
How we doing?[woman shushing]
285
00:11:25,902 --> 00:11:27,295
-Okay, quick, quick.
-She's talking, she's talking.
286
00:11:27,338 --> 00:11:29,297
I know you're busy.
But Elijah just gave me
287
00:11:29,340 --> 00:11:31,212
some news and I want you
to hear it first.
288
00:11:31,255 --> 00:11:34,737
New polls give us
a three-point lead.
289
00:11:34,781 --> 00:11:36,391
[cheering, applause]
290
00:11:36,434 --> 00:11:38,567
I've run a lot of campaigns
291
00:11:38,610 --> 00:11:40,351
in my career, I've worked
292
00:11:40,395 --> 00:11:41,744
with a lot
of incredible candidates...
293
00:11:41,788 --> 00:11:43,485
-Queenmaker!
-Queenmaker!
294
00:11:43,528 --> 00:11:47,054
But never with someone
who has the tremendous vision
295
00:11:47,097 --> 00:11:49,012
or potential
for greatness
296
00:11:49,056 --> 00:11:51,493
that this woman has.[cheering, applause]
297
00:11:51,536 --> 00:11:53,843
If I am the first woman
298
00:11:53,887 --> 00:11:56,498
to become mayor
of this beautiful,
299
00:11:56,541 --> 00:11:59,980
imperfect city,
it will be you guys
300
00:12:00,023 --> 00:12:02,939
-who made history, not me.
-WOMAN: Yeah!
301
00:12:04,201 --> 00:12:05,812
Hey, you're new right?
302
00:12:05,855 --> 00:12:08,075
-What's your name?
-Me? I'm... Mel.
303
00:12:08,118 --> 00:12:09,163
Hey, Mel?
304
00:12:09,206 --> 00:12:11,339
Want to go
make history?
305
00:12:11,382 --> 00:12:12,732
-Hey, Mel.
-Yes?
306
00:12:12,775 --> 00:12:13,689
Who can?
307
00:12:13,733 --> 00:12:15,386
I-I know.
308
00:12:15,430 --> 00:12:16,518
It's Keller can.
309
00:12:16,561 --> 00:12:18,520
-Who can?!
-ALL: Keller can!
310
00:12:18,563 --> 00:12:20,609
Keller can![cheering, whooping]
311
00:12:23,743 --> 00:12:25,788
Hey, yeah, hey, do me a favor.
312
00:12:25,832 --> 00:12:27,790
Show her those photos
I just sent over
313
00:12:27,834 --> 00:12:29,705
and ask if she wants
to press assault charges.
314
00:12:29,749 --> 00:12:31,925
ROBYN:
Hello, Petrus.
315
00:12:31,968 --> 00:12:33,753
I'm gonna have
to call you back.
316
00:12:33,796 --> 00:12:35,276
Who the hell are you?
317
00:12:35,319 --> 00:12:37,844
That depends on how you
answer my questions.
318
00:12:37,887 --> 00:12:39,715
You do know
that trespassing is illegal?
319
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:41,630
Well, so is wiretapping.
320
00:12:41,673 --> 00:12:44,198
I like to refer to it as, uh...
321
00:12:44,241 --> 00:12:46,113
bringing back the party line.
322
00:12:46,156 --> 00:12:48,332
Party line?
323
00:12:48,376 --> 00:12:51,031
If you're old enough
to remember the party line,
324
00:12:51,074 --> 00:12:53,816
then that means you are
too old to be chasing
325
00:12:53,860 --> 00:12:55,252
college girls.
326
00:12:55,296 --> 00:12:56,384
Maya Ruiz.
327
00:12:56,427 --> 00:12:57,951
Why'd you threaten her?
328
00:12:57,994 --> 00:13:00,562
To get dirt
on her boss Sinead Keller?
329
00:13:00,605 --> 00:13:02,172
You got it backward.
330
00:13:02,216 --> 00:13:04,174
I wasn't hired
to get dirt on Sinead.
331
00:13:04,218 --> 00:13:06,089
I was hired to protect her.
332
00:13:06,133 --> 00:13:07,308
[scoffs]
From who?
333
00:13:07,351 --> 00:13:09,397
Maya Ruiz.
334
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:10,964
See, someone's been
giving information
335
00:13:11,007 --> 00:13:12,226
to the rival campaign.
336
00:13:12,269 --> 00:13:14,054
Your girl Maya?
337
00:13:14,097 --> 00:13:16,317
She had a meeting
over there last week.
338
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:17,840
I'm just trying to find out why.
339
00:13:17,884 --> 00:13:19,581
But far be it from me
to threaten a girl.
340
00:13:19,624 --> 00:13:22,497
[exhales] Now why is it
that I don't believe you?
341
00:13:22,540 --> 00:13:25,239
I could pinkie swear.
342
00:13:25,282 --> 00:13:28,329
The question is whose campaign
do you work for?
343
00:13:29,896 --> 00:13:31,941
The underdogs.
344
00:13:36,816 --> 00:13:39,253
[door opens]
345
00:13:39,296 --> 00:13:40,907
[door closes]
346
00:13:40,950 --> 00:13:43,518
Hey. I think we got a problem.
347
00:13:44,475 --> 00:13:47,217
Robyn, I am telling you
I would actually
348
00:13:47,261 --> 00:13:48,349
go door-to-door for this woman.
349
00:13:48,392 --> 00:13:49,916
I get it. I get why Maya
350
00:13:49,959 --> 00:13:51,613
would work so hard for her.
351
00:13:51,656 --> 00:13:53,615
Then why was she meeting
with Sinead's opponent?
352
00:13:53,658 --> 00:13:55,182
-You're kidding.
-Nope.
353
00:13:55,225 --> 00:13:57,140
Petrus said she was
passing info to the enemy,
354
00:13:57,184 --> 00:13:58,707
but I'm not buying it.
355
00:13:58,750 --> 00:14:00,274
Something else is going on.
I'm pretty sure
356
00:14:00,317 --> 00:14:02,102
it has to do with the campaign.
357
00:14:02,145 --> 00:14:03,799
But everyone here loves Maya.
358
00:14:03,843 --> 00:14:05,975
[scoffs]
359
00:14:06,019 --> 00:14:07,934
Actually, not everyone.
360
00:14:07,977 --> 00:14:10,066
Let me call you back.
361
00:14:10,110 --> 00:14:11,807
[phone rings]
362
00:14:11,851 --> 00:14:13,330
Hey, baby.
363
00:14:13,374 --> 00:14:15,637
-Are you okay?
-Yes. Why?
364
00:14:15,680 --> 00:14:17,639
I don't know, your voicemail
this morning was all
365
00:14:17,682 --> 00:14:18,814
weird and intense.
366
00:14:18,858 --> 00:14:20,772
I just said hey.
367
00:14:20,816 --> 00:14:22,949
[laughs]
Did you think "hey"
368
00:14:22,992 --> 00:14:25,081
was code for something?
369
00:14:26,169 --> 00:14:28,084
Okay. Well, as long as you're
370
00:14:28,128 --> 00:14:30,173
not in the hospital dying,
I got to go.
371
00:14:30,217 --> 00:14:32,697
Well, remind me not to make you
my one call from jail.
372
00:14:34,351 --> 00:14:36,832
Okay, my mom won't be back
for a while
373
00:14:36,876 --> 00:14:39,008
and my aunt's out on
errands, so we are now
374
00:14:39,052 --> 00:14:41,054
-in a grown-up free zone.
-Did she say we could hang
375
00:14:41,097 --> 00:14:42,490
-tomorrow?
-Yeah, she did.
376
00:14:42,533 --> 00:14:44,231
She just needed
to make me suffer first.
377
00:14:44,274 --> 00:14:45,928
Since she quit
her job, it's like
378
00:14:45,972 --> 00:14:48,235
my social life is
her favorite hobby.
379
00:14:48,278 --> 00:14:51,238
You know, I was doing fine
without the micromanaging. Ooh!
380
00:14:51,281 --> 00:14:53,022
Try this one on,
Nicki.
381
00:14:53,066 --> 00:14:54,937
Before my mom died
I felt that way, too,
382
00:14:54,981 --> 00:14:57,635
but... I miss her lectures.
383
00:14:57,679 --> 00:14:59,028
God, that was so dumb.
384
00:14:59,072 --> 00:15:00,856
I wasn't thinking
about your mom.
385
00:15:00,900 --> 00:15:02,379
Don't trip.
386
00:15:02,423 --> 00:15:03,990
This is nice.
387
00:15:04,033 --> 00:15:05,730
You sure
you don't want it anymore?
388
00:15:05,774 --> 00:15:07,515
Nah. I've worn it, like,
a million times.
389
00:15:07,558 --> 00:15:10,866
I just wish I had more
to remember her by.
390
00:15:10,910 --> 00:15:12,999
She left me
a necklace.
391
00:15:13,042 --> 00:15:14,739
Gold, with a little heart.
392
00:15:14,783 --> 00:15:16,611
But Jason took it.
393
00:15:16,654 --> 00:15:18,787
Girl, I thought
-you dropped his ass.
-I did.
394
00:15:18,830 --> 00:15:20,397
Soon as I got out.
395
00:15:20,441 --> 00:15:22,399
But he kept all my stuff
and he's holding it hostage.
396
00:15:22,443 --> 00:15:24,358
All I want is
the necklace, but...
397
00:15:24,401 --> 00:15:26,969
he's telling me he'll only give
it back if we get back together.
398
00:15:27,013 --> 00:15:28,536
Are you serious?
399
00:15:28,579 --> 00:15:29,972
No. We're getting
that necklace back.
400
00:15:30,016 --> 00:15:32,105
Del, it's not a big deal.
401
00:15:32,148 --> 00:15:33,976
It's a huge deal.
It's messed up.
402
00:15:34,020 --> 00:15:35,151
Look, we've got the whole day
tomorrow, that's what we're
403
00:15:35,195 --> 00:15:37,197
doing with it.
404
00:15:40,591 --> 00:15:43,116
I spoke to an intern
who was not a Maya fan.
405
00:15:43,159 --> 00:15:44,856
She said that all the attention
Maya was getting
406
00:15:44,900 --> 00:15:46,902
from the higher-ups
was going to her head.
407
00:15:46,946 --> 00:15:50,253
And that last week, she borrowed
the campaign car without asking
408
00:15:50,297 --> 00:15:51,820
and was gone
for a couple of hours.
409
00:15:51,863 --> 00:15:53,604
Do we know where?
410
00:15:53,648 --> 00:15:56,085
I checked the car's GPS
for that day and the address
411
00:15:56,129 --> 00:15:58,392
matched an apartment building
in Jersey City.
412
00:15:58,435 --> 00:16:00,394
She was there
for over three hours.
413
00:16:00,437 --> 00:16:01,961
Any idea who she was visiting?
414
00:16:02,004 --> 00:16:03,440
Well, according
to the browser history
415
00:16:03,484 --> 00:16:05,225
of the computer
she used at work,
416
00:16:05,268 --> 00:16:07,836
the address matched a search
she ran on a woman named
417
00:16:07,879 --> 00:16:10,317
-Patty Romero.
-Who's Patty Romero?
418
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,232
That's the weird thing--
her public records go back
419
00:16:12,275 --> 00:16:14,451
two years. Before that,
it's like she didn't exist.
420
00:16:14,495 --> 00:16:15,626
Send me the address.
421
00:16:15,670 --> 00:16:16,932
[knocking]
422
00:16:16,976 --> 00:16:19,761
Patty Romero?
423
00:16:19,804 --> 00:16:21,676
I'm a friend of Maya Ruiz.
424
00:16:21,719 --> 00:16:23,852
Really? Because a good friend
would tell her to drop it.
425
00:16:23,895 --> 00:16:27,247
-Drop what?
-Yeah, you guys are
clearly very close.
426
00:16:27,290 --> 00:16:28,900
She attempted suicide.
427
00:16:30,119 --> 00:16:31,860
Suicide?
428
00:16:38,649 --> 00:16:41,174
It wasn't my job to protect her.
429
00:16:41,217 --> 00:16:43,393
No one can. Not while they're
protecting that bastard.
430
00:16:43,437 --> 00:16:44,786
Who?
431
00:16:44,829 --> 00:16:46,701
The moment
I saw Maya at the door,
432
00:16:46,744 --> 00:16:48,355
I knew what happened to her.
433
00:16:48,398 --> 00:16:51,140
Big, brown eyes, dark hair--
we could be sisters.
434
00:16:51,184 --> 00:16:53,142
-Just his type.
-Whose type?
435
00:16:53,186 --> 00:16:55,579
The Queenmaker,
God's gift to women candidates--
436
00:16:55,623 --> 00:16:57,190
Elijah Reade.
437
00:16:57,233 --> 00:16:58,539
He assaulted you?
438
00:16:58,582 --> 00:17:00,106
No.
439
00:17:00,149 --> 00:17:02,195
He raped me.
440
00:17:09,854 --> 00:17:11,204
[sighs]
441
00:17:13,684 --> 00:17:15,469
You have to understand.
442
00:17:15,512 --> 00:17:18,080
Elijah is New York politics.
443
00:17:18,124 --> 00:17:19,386
He's the whole ball game.
444
00:17:19,429 --> 00:17:21,344
When he hired me
five years ago,
445
00:17:21,388 --> 00:17:24,347
it wasn't just getting
a job, it was like...
446
00:17:24,391 --> 00:17:28,134
like he gift-wrapped me
a future.
447
00:17:28,177 --> 00:17:31,659
I didn't report the rape because
I was afraid to lose all that.
448
00:17:31,702 --> 00:17:33,574
-He knew what he was doing.
-Yeah.
449
00:17:33,617 --> 00:17:35,315
Because then he fired me anyway.
450
00:17:35,358 --> 00:17:36,968
I told him
I would sue,
451
00:17:37,012 --> 00:17:39,319
and got threatened
with the greatest hits.
452
00:17:39,362 --> 00:17:42,148
I'd never work again
in this town if I said anything,
453
00:17:42,191 --> 00:17:44,324
no one would ever believe me...
454
00:17:44,367 --> 00:17:47,849
Finally, they got me to sign
an NDA, take a settlement.
455
00:17:47,892 --> 00:17:50,112
It was tons of money, but...
456
00:17:50,156 --> 00:17:51,853
not enough.
457
00:17:51,896 --> 00:17:54,638
Considering that
when I signed that document,
458
00:17:54,682 --> 00:17:57,424
my truth...
459
00:17:57,467 --> 00:18:00,166
my pain,
legally belonged to him.
460
00:18:00,209 --> 00:18:03,517
I couldn't stay quiet,
so I tweeted
461
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,737
that I was sexually assaulted
by a political consultant.
462
00:18:06,781 --> 00:18:07,695
That was brave.
463
00:18:07,738 --> 00:18:09,392
It was stupid.
464
00:18:09,436 --> 00:18:12,178
Because my old colleagues
came forward to defend him.
465
00:18:12,221 --> 00:18:14,397
People I thought
were friends.
466
00:18:14,441 --> 00:18:17,226
Said I was a disgruntled
employee using
467
00:18:17,270 --> 00:18:18,749
the #MeToo movement
468
00:18:18,793 --> 00:18:21,187
to take down
a good man.
469
00:18:21,230 --> 00:18:23,058
I was torn apart in the press.
470
00:18:23,102 --> 00:18:24,886
Blackballed from politics.
471
00:18:24,929 --> 00:18:27,889
Had to move and change my name
because of the harassment.
472
00:18:27,932 --> 00:18:31,066
I didn't try to end
my life, but...
473
00:18:31,110 --> 00:18:32,763
my life ended.
474
00:18:32,807 --> 00:18:34,287
Patty...
Sarah.
475
00:18:34,330 --> 00:18:36,202
My real name is Sarah.
476
00:18:36,245 --> 00:18:38,291
Nice to meet you, Sarah.
477
00:18:40,423 --> 00:18:43,600
Sarah, did you ever deal
with a Zev Petrus?
478
00:18:43,644 --> 00:18:46,037
When they were pressuring me
to take the money,
479
00:18:46,081 --> 00:18:47,387
Petrus was
480
00:18:47,430 --> 00:18:49,084
the one trashing
my reputation,
481
00:18:49,128 --> 00:18:50,825
destroying me
publicly.
482
00:18:50,868 --> 00:18:52,653
I couldn't even
go to the cops.
483
00:18:52,696 --> 00:18:55,743
Petrus told me about another
woman who tried in 2011,
484
00:18:55,786 --> 00:18:57,397
and they did nothing.
485
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,574
That's why I told
Maya to give up.
486
00:19:00,617 --> 00:19:02,750
Because either
you live in silence,
487
00:19:02,793 --> 00:19:05,231
or they make you wish
you were dead.
488
00:19:05,274 --> 00:19:06,754
Shouldn't have to be that way.
489
00:19:06,797 --> 00:19:08,669
You see another option?
490
00:19:08,712 --> 00:19:10,410
Yeah.
491
00:19:10,453 --> 00:19:13,108
Make them wish they were dead.
492
00:19:13,152 --> 00:19:15,589
[distant siren wailing]
493
00:19:15,632 --> 00:19:17,765
I talked to Sarah.
494
00:19:17,808 --> 00:19:20,811
Maya,
I'm not a college counselor.
495
00:19:20,855 --> 00:19:23,074
But I am someone who can help.
496
00:19:24,293 --> 00:19:26,687
I want to go after Elijah Reade.
497
00:19:26,730 --> 00:19:28,471
To bury him.
498
00:19:28,515 --> 00:19:30,604
But I want to know
I have your permission.
499
00:19:30,647 --> 00:19:32,954
Either way,
I promise I have your back.
500
00:19:32,997 --> 00:19:35,652
So can you hang
in there?
501
00:19:35,696 --> 00:19:38,177
Stay with us while we do this.
502
00:19:41,397 --> 00:19:44,357
Let's see how you do first.
503
00:19:48,187 --> 00:19:50,145
[door opens]
504
00:19:50,189 --> 00:19:52,016
[door closes]
505
00:19:52,060 --> 00:19:54,976
MEL:
Elijah Reade-- over his
30-something-year career
506
00:19:55,019 --> 00:19:56,456
in politics,
he's become one of the most
507
00:19:56,499 --> 00:19:58,153
sought-after strategists
in the city.
508
00:19:58,197 --> 00:19:59,981
You bag him,
you bag the election.
509
00:20:00,024 --> 00:20:02,636
So he's a golden goose
for political candidates.
510
00:20:02,679 --> 00:20:05,682
MEL: Yeah, the guy never
loses, and he has a history
511
00:20:05,726 --> 00:20:07,510
of supporting female
candidates.
512
00:20:07,554 --> 00:20:10,557
He's a wolf
in feminist clothes.
513
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,342
Reputation alone makes him
the perfect predator.
514
00:20:13,386 --> 00:20:16,345
Serial predator--
I mean, I'd bet money on it.
515
00:20:16,389 --> 00:20:17,825
I've met the guy.
Everybody loves him.
516
00:20:17,868 --> 00:20:19,479
I think he's been
getting away with this
517
00:20:19,522 --> 00:20:21,263
for a very long time.
518
00:20:21,307 --> 00:20:23,222
Which means there
are other victims out there.
519
00:20:23,265 --> 00:20:25,746
It's no wonder Maya's been
meeting with other campaigns.
520
00:20:25,789 --> 00:20:27,356
She was trying
to get away from the guy.
521
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,228
Patty mentioned
there was another woman
522
00:20:29,271 --> 00:20:31,273
back in 2011
who went to the cops.
523
00:20:31,317 --> 00:20:33,101
Nothing happened.
524
00:20:33,144 --> 00:20:35,799
See, this is why women don't
report these kinds of crimes.
525
00:20:35,843 --> 00:20:37,627
It takes everything that
you have to come forward,
526
00:20:37,671 --> 00:20:39,629
and then everybody doubts you.
527
00:20:43,633 --> 00:20:45,374
Not this time.
528
00:20:45,418 --> 00:20:46,984
This guy's going down.
529
00:20:47,028 --> 00:20:49,335
But first we have to break
the dam of silence.
530
00:20:49,378 --> 00:20:51,424
We have to break
his machine of fear.
531
00:20:51,467 --> 00:20:52,947
Let's start
with the woman back in 2011.
532
00:20:52,990 --> 00:20:54,253
See what happened there.
533
00:20:54,296 --> 00:20:56,211
NYPD cases from 2011
weren't digitized.
534
00:20:56,255 --> 00:20:57,604
They were still
filling out forms,
535
00:20:57,647 --> 00:20:58,953
hiding them in some basement
somewhere,
536
00:20:58,996 --> 00:21:00,433
hoping the pipes didn't burst.
537
00:21:00,476 --> 00:21:02,043
I don't think
I'm your guy for this.
538
00:21:02,086 --> 00:21:04,393
Well, good thing
I got another guy.
539
00:21:04,437 --> 00:21:07,309
-You all right?
-Mm-hmm.
540
00:21:08,441 --> 00:21:09,877
[phone buzzing]
Detective Dante.
541
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:11,574
Detective Dante, this is
542
00:21:11,618 --> 00:21:13,359
Detective Grisham
from the 118th.
543
00:21:13,402 --> 00:21:15,883
Funny, I thought
they disbanded the 118th.
544
00:21:15,926 --> 00:21:17,232
Huh.
545
00:21:17,276 --> 00:21:18,886
No wonder it's so quiet here.
546
00:21:18,929 --> 00:21:20,975
Listen, I need you to pull
a file for me.
547
00:21:21,018 --> 00:21:23,978
It's about Elijah Reade
back in 2011.
548
00:21:24,021 --> 00:21:25,109
Why would I do that?
549
00:21:25,153 --> 00:21:26,589
Because you like me.
550
00:21:26,633 --> 00:21:28,374
How can I like you
when I hardly know you,
551
00:21:28,417 --> 00:21:29,636
Detective Grisham?
552
00:21:29,679 --> 00:21:31,246
You're not
the only detective here.
553
00:21:31,290 --> 00:21:33,074
You know I can hear you
smiling, right?
554
00:21:33,117 --> 00:21:35,381
Come on, you know what?
555
00:21:35,424 --> 00:21:37,470
I wouldn't ask if it wasn't
for a good cause.
556
00:21:37,513 --> 00:21:38,906
What's the case?
557
00:21:38,949 --> 00:21:40,647
You tell me.
558
00:21:46,348 --> 00:21:48,089
Isn't this breaking
and entering?
559
00:21:48,132 --> 00:21:49,090
Okay, you used to live here.
560
00:21:49,133 --> 00:21:50,483
You still have a key.
561
00:21:50,526 --> 00:21:52,572
It's not breaking,
it's just entering.
562
00:21:52,615 --> 00:21:54,182
Maybe on your side of town.
563
00:21:54,225 --> 00:21:55,662
Nicki.
564
00:21:55,705 --> 00:21:57,228
He stole an heirloom
of your dead mother's
565
00:21:57,272 --> 00:21:58,926
to extort you for sex,
and you want to argue
566
00:21:58,969 --> 00:22:00,449
about putting a key
in a door?
567
00:22:02,146 --> 00:22:04,366
Okay, they're out. Let's go.
568
00:22:06,890 --> 00:22:09,197
DANTE:
Okay, I found the file.
569
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,460
A woman accused Elijah Reade
of sexual assault.
570
00:22:11,504 --> 00:22:14,768
A case was opened, but before
any real work could be done,
571
00:22:14,811 --> 00:22:16,291
she withdrew the complaint.
572
00:22:16,335 --> 00:22:17,771
Because someone got to her.
573
00:22:17,814 --> 00:22:19,512
Who was the detective
on the case?
574
00:22:19,555 --> 00:22:21,427
Zev Petrus. Huh.
575
00:22:21,470 --> 00:22:23,211
You sound like you know him.
576
00:22:23,254 --> 00:22:24,952
What have you found?
577
00:22:24,995 --> 00:22:26,649
Other women he silenced.
578
00:22:26,693 --> 00:22:28,521
This victim, what was her name?
579
00:22:28,564 --> 00:22:30,174
That's not something I'm gonna
give you without her consent.
580
00:22:30,218 --> 00:22:31,437
I figured as much.
581
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:32,916
Thanks for your help,
Detective.
582
00:22:35,919 --> 00:22:37,921
So, it's 2011.
583
00:22:37,965 --> 00:22:40,533
Petrus is a cop
looking into Elijah for rape.
584
00:22:40,576 --> 00:22:43,405
And Petrus has a bank account
where his conscience should be,
585
00:22:43,449 --> 00:22:44,928
so Elijah backs up
the Brink's truck
586
00:22:44,972 --> 00:22:46,452
and makes the case go away.
587
00:22:46,495 --> 00:22:48,062
Petrus quits the force
588
00:22:48,105 --> 00:22:49,977
and, uh, goes on Elijah's
payroll full-time.
589
00:22:50,020 --> 00:22:52,153
And the women get bullied
into silence.
590
00:22:52,196 --> 00:22:53,633
It's not right.
591
00:22:53,676 --> 00:22:55,156
We need to talk to this woman,
see if she's willing
592
00:22:55,199 --> 00:22:57,332
to get justice with us now,
with our help.
593
00:22:57,376 --> 00:22:59,378
Well, how we gonna do that?
We don't even have her name.
594
00:22:59,421 --> 00:23:01,205
I don't think
we're gonna need it.
595
00:23:04,165 --> 00:23:06,167
Oh. Maya?
596
00:23:06,210 --> 00:23:08,169
Hi, I'm Laura Foley.
597
00:23:08,212 --> 00:23:10,084
I work
with Sinead's campaign.
598
00:23:10,127 --> 00:23:11,433
May I come in?
599
00:23:11,477 --> 00:23:12,521
Sure, please.
600
00:23:12,565 --> 00:23:14,305
Nice to meet you.
601
00:23:14,349 --> 00:23:15,655
I won't stay long.
602
00:23:15,698 --> 00:23:17,831
We at the campaign just heard
what happened.
603
00:23:17,874 --> 00:23:19,223
I'm just here
as a messenger
604
00:23:19,267 --> 00:23:21,835
to offer her
the campaign's full support.
605
00:23:21,878 --> 00:23:24,011
In fact,
we would be more than happy
606
00:23:24,054 --> 00:23:25,578
to cover your hospital bill.
607
00:23:25,621 --> 00:23:27,101
That's very generous.
608
00:23:27,144 --> 00:23:29,059
Of course,
we would just want Maya
609
00:23:29,103 --> 00:23:30,452
to sign a little paperwork,
610
00:23:30,496 --> 00:23:32,193
out of respect
for her privacy.
611
00:23:32,236 --> 00:23:33,499
You understand.
612
00:23:33,542 --> 00:23:35,109
Would be an enormous help.
613
00:23:35,152 --> 00:23:37,416
Elijah insisted.
614
00:23:39,548 --> 00:23:41,202
Thank you.
We'll think about it.
615
00:23:41,245 --> 00:23:42,943
Just let us know.
616
00:23:42,986 --> 00:23:44,988
And feel better, Maya.
617
00:23:50,864 --> 00:23:52,561
Maya?
618
00:23:52,605 --> 00:23:54,084
what's to think about?
619
00:23:54,128 --> 00:23:55,869
Don't get me wrong,
620
00:23:55,912 --> 00:23:58,045
your health is the only thing
that matters to me, but...
621
00:23:58,088 --> 00:24:00,003
you know we need the money.
622
00:24:01,570 --> 00:24:03,790
Dad, I have to tell you
something.
623
00:24:11,014 --> 00:24:12,973
I knew you wouldn't
let it go.
624
00:24:14,409 --> 00:24:15,715
You followed me?
625
00:24:15,758 --> 00:24:17,412
Well, I heard
the way Petrus' name
626
00:24:17,456 --> 00:24:18,892
got stuck in your throat.
627
00:24:18,935 --> 00:24:20,415
There's history there.
628
00:24:20,459 --> 00:24:22,243
You knew
he sandbagged the case,
629
00:24:22,286 --> 00:24:23,505
So you're here to make it right.
630
00:24:23,549 --> 00:24:25,420
Maybe I am,
631
00:24:25,464 --> 00:24:27,727
but I'm not about to do it
with you.
632
00:24:27,770 --> 00:24:29,729
[whistle blowing]
633
00:24:29,772 --> 00:24:31,818
[children shouting]
634
00:24:39,521 --> 00:24:41,262
You don't have to tell me
who she is.
635
00:24:41,305 --> 00:24:42,524
I already know.
636
00:24:42,568 --> 00:24:44,613
Elijah has a type.
637
00:24:44,657 --> 00:24:46,528
You're doing great, Evan!
638
00:24:49,879 --> 00:24:51,577
Look, I... I get it.
639
00:24:51,620 --> 00:24:53,187
You want to play by the rules.
640
00:24:53,230 --> 00:24:55,058
But what's the point
641
00:24:55,102 --> 00:24:58,845
if people like Elijah
and Petrus rig the game?
642
00:24:59,889 --> 00:25:01,848
How many other victims?
643
00:25:03,153 --> 00:25:04,938
At least two.
644
00:25:04,981 --> 00:25:06,679
I'm guessing a lot more.
645
00:25:07,636 --> 00:25:09,508
I take lead.
646
00:25:11,161 --> 00:25:12,815
MAN:
There you go, there you go!
647
00:25:12,859 --> 00:25:14,513
Your boy's got real skill.
648
00:25:15,601 --> 00:25:16,863
Explosive, too.
649
00:25:16,906 --> 00:25:18,604
I'm Detective Dante.
This is...
650
00:25:18,647 --> 00:25:20,040
an associate.
651
00:25:20,997 --> 00:25:22,956
I can't be seen talking to you.
652
00:25:22,999 --> 00:25:24,784
Because someone warned
you to stay quiet?
653
00:25:24,827 --> 00:25:26,612
Like they did in 2011?
654
00:25:26,655 --> 00:25:27,874
Was it Petrus?
655
00:25:28,875 --> 00:25:30,441
My husband doesn't even know,
656
00:25:30,485 --> 00:25:32,313
and I've never said a word
to anyone else.
657
00:25:32,356 --> 00:25:33,967
Look, I understand.
658
00:25:34,010 --> 00:25:35,664
You don't want to talk about it.
659
00:25:35,708 --> 00:25:37,144
I can't talk about it.
660
00:25:37,187 --> 00:25:38,537
I signed an NDA,
took a settlement
661
00:25:38,580 --> 00:25:40,974
because I had no other option.
662
00:25:41,017 --> 00:25:42,802
Because no one would listen.
663
00:25:42,845 --> 00:25:45,195
The way you were treated
when you told your story...
664
00:25:45,239 --> 00:25:46,806
that never should have happened.
665
00:25:46,849 --> 00:25:49,199
Let us reopen your case.
We can protect you.
666
00:25:49,243 --> 00:25:51,027
There are others.
Women like you.
667
00:25:51,071 --> 00:25:52,899
Yeah? Are they talking?
668
00:25:54,857 --> 00:25:56,076
Then neither am I.
669
00:25:58,034 --> 00:25:59,645
It's like going up
against the mafia.
670
00:26:00,820 --> 00:26:03,039
Can't make a case when
no one's willing to talk.
671
00:26:03,083 --> 00:26:04,432
So, you still want to play
by the rules?
672
00:26:04,475 --> 00:26:06,086
More so.
673
00:26:06,129 --> 00:26:08,175
Because Zev Petrus is
what you get when you don't.
674
00:26:08,218 --> 00:26:10,656
Wiretapping, intimidation...
675
00:26:10,699 --> 00:26:13,267
He's the reason these women
have to live with their abuse.
676
00:26:13,310 --> 00:26:15,530
He may have left the force,
but he's still a dirty cop
677
00:26:15,574 --> 00:26:17,488
in a more expensive suit.
678
00:26:17,532 --> 00:26:19,795
Only I could never prove it.
679
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,364
You know the reason I knew you
would come here and talk to her
680
00:26:23,407 --> 00:26:26,019
is because you act
according to your nature.
681
00:26:26,976 --> 00:26:28,587
Nudge Petrus.
682
00:26:28,630 --> 00:26:30,284
He'll do the same.
683
00:26:33,635 --> 00:26:35,637
[phone rings]
684
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:40,773
Maya? You okay?
685
00:26:40,816 --> 00:26:42,949
I shouldn't have told him.
I shouldn't have told him.
686
00:26:42,992 --> 00:26:44,864
Your dad?
What, he didn't believe you?
687
00:26:44,907 --> 00:26:46,866
No, no, he did,
and now he's gone.
688
00:26:46,909 --> 00:26:49,259
And he's gonna kill Elijah,
and it's all my fault.
689
00:26:56,658 --> 00:26:57,920
ROBYN:
Talk to me, Harry.
690
00:26:57,964 --> 00:26:59,400
[over speakerphone]:
Found Elijah.
691
00:26:59,443 --> 00:27:00,662
Social media puts him
at the campaign headquarters.
692
00:27:00,706 --> 00:27:02,098
Damn it!
693
00:27:02,142 --> 00:27:03,709
He's got a head start on me.
694
00:27:03,752 --> 00:27:06,450
Come on, Joseph, don't do this.
695
00:27:06,494 --> 00:27:08,278
[phone rings]
696
00:27:08,322 --> 00:27:10,019
Aunt Vi.
697
00:27:10,063 --> 00:27:11,630
Not a great time.
698
00:27:11,673 --> 00:27:14,110
Dee and Nicki got caught
for breaking and entering.
699
00:27:14,154 --> 00:27:16,547
They ran from the cops,
Dee got away,
700
00:27:16,591 --> 00:27:18,332
but Nicki got arrested.
701
00:27:18,375 --> 00:27:19,550
Arrested?
702
00:27:19,594 --> 00:27:21,204
I told you Nicki was a bad idea.
703
00:27:21,248 --> 00:27:22,902
I shouldn't have said yes
to her.

00:37:22,892 --> 00:37:24,503
Oh, from the very start.
883
00:37:24,546 --> 00:37:26,461
You know, my mother
was a staunch feminist,
884
00:37:26,505 --> 00:37:28,594
and I've always
felt it critical
885
00:37:28,637 --> 00:37:32,685
to support and
empower women.
886
00:37:32,728 --> 00:37:34,991
Sinead is one of many.
887
00:37:35,035 --> 00:37:36,950
But there was always
something special about her.
888
00:37:36,993 --> 00:37:39,126
She's-she's passionate.
889
00:37:39,169 --> 00:37:41,520
[laughs]:
Empathetic. Brilliant.
890
00:37:41,563 --> 00:37:44,697
I'm just, I'm just glad to be
a small part of her story.
891
00:37:44,740 --> 00:37:46,438
[laughs softly]
892
00:37:46,481 --> 00:37:49,441
Well-- Right. Uh...
893
00:37:49,484 --> 00:37:51,051
What was it
you used to call me?
894
00:37:51,094 --> 00:37:52,444
My stallion.
895
00:37:52,487 --> 00:37:54,750
Because I knew how
far you could go.
896
00:37:56,665 --> 00:37:59,189
[clears throat]
Yeah.
897
00:37:59,233 --> 00:38:00,756
It's a nice story.
898
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:02,845
I've been telling it
to myself for 20 years.
899
00:38:02,889 --> 00:38:05,718
But you left out a few parts.[chuckles]
900
00:38:05,761 --> 00:38:08,198
Like the part when I was 19
901
00:38:08,242 --> 00:38:11,201
and my boss got me drunk
and slept with me.
902
00:38:11,245 --> 00:38:12,986
[crew and audience murmuring]
903
00:38:13,029 --> 00:38:14,814
She's...
904
00:38:14,857 --> 00:38:15,989
[clears throat]
905
00:38:16,032 --> 00:38:17,730
I'm sorry,
the campaign has been,
906
00:38:17,773 --> 00:38:20,167
uh, exhausting.
907
00:38:20,210 --> 00:38:21,908
And the candidate's
running on fumes ...feel fine.
908
00:38:21,951 --> 00:38:23,823
That is quite an allegation.
909
00:38:23,866 --> 00:38:26,304
And that's-that's all it is.
910
00:38:26,347 --> 00:38:28,915
And even if it were true--
which I want to be clear,
911
00:38:28,958 --> 00:38:32,353
it is not--
it would have been 20 years ago.
912
00:38:32,397 --> 00:38:36,139
And it's been a good 20
years for you, Sinead.
913
00:38:36,183 --> 00:38:37,837
I know.
914
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,361
And people will judge me
for that.
915
00:38:40,405 --> 00:38:44,104
Might even mean
the end of my campaign.
916
00:38:44,147 --> 00:38:47,586
They'll say I knew,
that I enabled your abuse.
917
00:38:49,544 --> 00:38:50,980
Because it didn't stop with me,
did it?
918
00:38:57,944 --> 00:39:00,729
23 women, 23 NDAs.
919
00:39:00,773 --> 00:39:03,515
You didn't empower these
women, you violated them.
920
00:39:03,558 --> 00:39:05,734
And you
silenced them.
921
00:39:05,778 --> 00:39:07,954
How do you think your mother
would feel about that?
922
00:39:10,304 --> 00:39:11,958
Don't get too excited.
923
00:39:12,001 --> 00:39:13,438
The women's names
have been redacted,
924
00:39:13,481 --> 00:39:15,091
but the amounts he paid
them haven't been.
925
00:39:15,135 --> 00:39:18,225
The truth is, I didn't know
about these victims.
926
00:39:18,268 --> 00:39:20,401
But I know about them now.
927
00:39:21,707 --> 00:39:23,752
And if any of you choose
to speak out...
928
00:39:25,711 --> 00:39:28,366
...I will stand with you.
929
00:39:29,454 --> 00:39:31,325
I will fight for you.
930
00:39:33,283 --> 00:39:35,329
I will believe you.
931
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:45,992
You okay?
932
00:39:47,602 --> 00:39:49,430
Sinead offered me my job back.
933
00:39:49,474 --> 00:39:51,171
A promotion, actually.
934
00:39:52,172 --> 00:39:53,434
That's great.
935
00:39:54,783 --> 00:39:57,438
How do I go back to my life?
936
00:39:57,482 --> 00:40:01,964
What happened
doesn't define you, Maya.
937
00:40:02,008 --> 00:40:05,925
It's just one page
in a very, very long book.
938
00:40:05,968 --> 00:40:07,579
And you
939
00:40:07,622 --> 00:40:09,668
get to write your
next chapter.
940
00:40:23,508 --> 00:40:25,858
DANTE:
Make sure you get
that USB over here.
941
00:40:25,901 --> 00:40:30,515
I admire the initiative, Junior,
but you need a warrant for this.
942
00:40:30,558 --> 00:40:32,691
You mean like this one?
943
00:40:33,822 --> 00:40:35,215
You know,
944
00:40:35,258 --> 00:40:37,304
old as you've gotten, Petrus,
945
00:40:37,347 --> 00:40:40,220
you still take a nice picture.
946
00:40:40,263 --> 00:40:42,309
That jawline don't quit.
947
00:40:42,352 --> 00:40:44,703
In fact, I got
a few good ones last night.
948
00:40:44,746 --> 00:40:47,488
Here's you running straight
to Elijah after we talked.
949
00:40:47,532 --> 00:40:49,142
You two must have been
pretty nervous
950
00:40:49,185 --> 00:40:51,492
with so many people
asking questions,
951
00:40:51,536 --> 00:40:53,494
because here's you
breaking into Maya's house
952
00:40:53,538 --> 00:40:57,324
right after that, doing what
you do best, playing dirty.
953
00:40:57,367 --> 00:40:59,848
Didn't get an angle on you
putting the bugs in the house
954
00:40:59,892 --> 00:41:02,677
and tapping their phones,
but don't worry.
955
00:41:02,721 --> 00:41:05,550
We found them all the same.
956
00:41:05,593 --> 00:41:08,291
[indistinct radio chatter]
957
00:41:09,684 --> 00:41:10,903
Watch your head.
958
00:41:18,693 --> 00:41:21,174
Feels good.
959
00:41:21,217 --> 00:41:23,176
I can see it
in your walk.
960
00:41:23,219 --> 00:41:25,178
Guess I owe you one.
961
00:41:25,221 --> 00:41:27,920
I think I'll take you up on that
right now.
962
00:41:29,661 --> 00:41:31,924
What do you have in mind?
963
00:41:36,145 --> 00:41:37,886
Nicki.
964
00:41:37,930 --> 00:41:40,759
If there's ever trouble,
call me.
965
00:41:57,253 --> 00:42:00,343
Mom? You're not
gonna believe it.
966
00:42:00,387 --> 00:42:02,345
I just got a call from Nicki.
They let her out. [chuckles]
967
00:42:02,389 --> 00:42:04,347
ROBYN [over phone]:
That's great news, babe.
968
00:42:04,391 --> 00:42:08,134
Do you want to maybe invite her
over for dinner on Sunday?
969
00:42:09,135 --> 00:42:10,745
Really?
970
00:42:10,789 --> 00:42:13,095
Uh, yeah, yeah.
I think Nicki would like that.
971
00:42:13,139 --> 00:42:15,184
[chuckles]
972
00:42:17,970 --> 00:42:19,580
Check it out.
973
00:42:19,624 --> 00:42:22,540
Since the interview,
17 women have come forward.
974
00:42:22,583 --> 00:42:23,932
AG's pressing charges,
975
00:42:23,976 --> 00:42:26,152
Twitter says Elijah
has been arrested.
976
00:42:26,195 --> 00:42:29,590
And there is a massive
civil suit brewing.
977
00:42:29,634 --> 00:42:32,593
It's always nice when a dirtbag
gets buried alive, isn't it?
978
00:42:32,637 --> 00:42:34,595
Wish that happened to my dude.
979
00:42:34,639 --> 00:42:36,423
Where'd he end up?
980
00:42:36,466 --> 00:42:38,512
Who knows and who cares?
981
00:42:38,556 --> 00:42:39,948
Look at my life.
982
00:42:39,992 --> 00:42:41,994
I was done
with that years ago.
983
00:42:48,261 --> 00:42:51,264
He's living in a studio
apartment in Pahrump, Nevada.
984
00:42:51,307 --> 00:42:53,614
I screw with his credit
every once in a while,
985
00:42:53,658 --> 00:42:56,182
and the poor guy keeps
having his identity stolen.
986
00:42:56,225 --> 00:42:57,792
[chuckles]
987
00:42:57,836 --> 00:42:59,620
[whispers]:
Nobody messes with my lady.
988
00:42:59,664 --> 00:43:01,796
That's right, Harry.
