1
00:00:29,541 --> 00:00:33,833
- Do you recognize this form?
- Yes, it's a CFC, a Consent for Care Form.

2
00:00:33,916 --> 00:00:36,625
Hey, Freddie, no siren, okay? Thanks.

3
00:00:36,708 --> 00:00:38,875
- What purpose does this form serve?
- Um…

4
00:00:39,875 --> 00:00:42,625
It's an agreement between the patients,
the providers, the…

5
00:00:42,708 --> 00:00:44,500
Freddie. Siren.

6
00:00:45,041 --> 00:00:47,958
The patients, the providers, the company.

7
00:00:48,041 --> 00:00:52,083
It lists all the risks and side-effects
associated with the proposed treatment.

8
00:00:52,166 --> 00:00:54,041
Have you ever signed as a witness
on a CFC?

9
00:00:54,125 --> 00:00:55,791
- Yes, I have.
- And is this your signature?

10
00:00:55,875 --> 00:00:57,916
No, it's not.

11
00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:58,958
How about this one?

12
00:01:00,375 --> 00:01:01,500
No.

13
00:01:01,583 --> 00:01:03,458
And so on more forms.

14
00:01:03,541 --> 00:01:06,333
Why might someone forge your signature
on a CFC form?

15
00:01:06,416 --> 00:01:07,708
Objection. Speculation.

16
00:01:09,541 --> 00:01:11,708
Mr. Usher, in your opinion,

17
00:01:11,791 --> 00:01:15,000
what's a likely reason
to forge a signature on a CFC form?

18
00:01:15,083 --> 00:01:18,166
To make it look like the patient
knew the risks

19
00:01:18,250 --> 00:01:21,416
and made an informed decision
to join the trial.

20
00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:26,416
And also to shield the company
from liability.

21
00:01:26,500 --> 00:01:27,583
Jesus, Fred.

22
00:01:29,750 --> 00:01:31,541
Take a time out, yeah?

23
00:01:31,625 --> 00:01:33,583
- Can I get you some more tea?
- I'm fine.

24
00:01:33,666 --> 00:01:36,833
Hey, sweetie. I just put Tammy down.
What is the problem?

25
00:01:36,916 --> 00:01:39,208
We're rehearsing, and he's making noise.

26
00:01:39,291 --> 00:01:40,458
Can you take care of him?

27
00:01:41,166 --> 00:01:44,333
Kids make noise, Roderick.
That's how we know they're working.

28
00:01:45,708 --> 00:01:47,916
Sweetie, why don't you play
in Mommy's room?

29
00:01:52,833 --> 00:01:54,833
So sorry about your rehearsal.

30
00:01:54,916 --> 00:01:56,666
That's really no problem.

31
00:02:00,041 --> 00:02:03,041
I support what you're doing, I really do,

32
00:02:03,125 --> 00:02:05,458
but what about after?

33
00:02:05,541 --> 00:02:08,500
I mean,
with everything that he has turned over,

34
00:02:08,583 --> 00:02:11,041
is it really necessary
going on the record?

35
00:02:12,250 --> 00:02:15,833
Well, the documents aren't forged
unless he points and says,

36
00:02:15,916 --> 00:02:17,958
- "I didn't sign that."
- Mmm.

37
00:02:18,041 --> 00:02:19,875
So, without him, my case is…

38
00:02:21,541 --> 00:02:24,625
You can't blow the whistle
without a whistleblower.

39
00:02:24,708 --> 00:02:27,583
I wish it were otherwise. I truly do.

40
00:02:28,416 --> 00:02:29,500
He'll be fired.

41
00:02:31,416 --> 00:02:32,291
Yes.

42
00:02:33,791 --> 00:02:38,291
I'd like your word that when it's done,
we can count on your help.

43
00:02:38,375 --> 00:02:41,291
- Of course, I mean, in so much as-
- I would like your word.

44
00:02:43,666 --> 00:02:44,625
You have my word.

45
00:02:54,875 --> 00:02:56,833
You boys give them hell.

46
00:02:56,916 --> 00:02:57,750
Okay.

47
00:03:00,250 --> 00:03:01,708
Here's that tea.

48
00:03:05,041 --> 00:03:06,000
You're a lucky man.

49
00:03:06,750 --> 00:03:08,625
Yeah.

50
00:03:11,291 --> 00:03:14,875
What about you? You got some luck at home?

51
00:03:16,833 --> 00:03:19,708
I think so.
I'm never there, so who can say?

52
00:03:19,791 --> 00:03:23,291
Yeah, she puts up with a lot.

53
00:03:26,916 --> 00:03:27,833
So does he.

54
00:03:34,083 --> 00:03:36,000
Both of us lucky in one way, at least.

55
00:03:37,666 --> 00:03:40,416
Got good people at home
who love us anyway.

56
00:03:42,416 --> 00:03:43,625
Let's not let them down.

57
00:03:45,375 --> 00:03:46,833
Let's make this one worth it.

58
00:03:50,250 --> 00:03:52,375
Do you recognize this form?

59
00:03:52,458 --> 00:03:54,666
Yes, that is a Consent For Care form.

60
00:03:55,250 --> 00:03:56,500
<i>Annabel Lee.</i>

61
00:03:56,583 --> 00:03:58,833
You know,
I've thought about it over the years

62
00:03:58,916 --> 00:04:02,250
because I've got a good sense for people.

63
00:04:03,125 --> 00:04:05,708
I ask myself what went wrong.

64
00:04:06,291 --> 00:04:10,291
What malfunctioned with me back then
to make me trust you?

65
00:04:10,833 --> 00:04:13,708
And I figured it out. It was her.

66
00:04:14,541 --> 00:04:16,583
I trusted her, so I trusted you.

67
00:04:16,666 --> 00:04:21,916
I mean, if that woman loved you,

68
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,166
if she trusted you,
fucking fool to lose her the way you did.

69
00:04:26,958 --> 00:04:31,041
Much as I lost after what you did,
and I lost a lot, damn near everything,

70
00:04:32,416 --> 00:04:35,208
it sustained me a bit…

71
00:04:37,625 --> 00:04:40,291
knowing you lost her.

72
00:04:43,041 --> 00:04:47,041
<i>And this was the reason that long ago
In this kingdom by the sea</i>

73
00:04:48,666 --> 00:04:52,541
<i>A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee</i>

74
00:04:52,625 --> 00:04:54,375
You're the fucking wind, Shakespeare.

75
00:04:54,458 --> 00:04:58,083
<i>So that her highborn kinsmen came
Bore her away from me</i>

76
00:04:58,166 --> 00:05:00,166
<i>To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom…</i>

77
00:05:00,250 --> 00:05:01,958
- Oh, shut up.
<i>- …by the sea</i>

78
00:05:02,041 --> 00:05:04,208
Don't you ever get tired
of hearing yourself talk?

79
00:05:04,291 --> 00:05:07,958
Can't imagine how she
hung on so long, frankly.

80
00:05:08,041 --> 00:05:12,916
I say to people all the time,
"There's no such thing as a good Usher."

81
00:05:14,958 --> 00:05:16,958
But there was. One.

82
00:05:19,208 --> 00:05:21,000
Annabel Lee Usher.

83
00:05:22,500 --> 00:05:25,416
The only good Usher,
and you chased her away.

84
00:05:26,333 --> 00:05:29,291
Wrong. My granddaughter, Lenore.

85
00:05:31,208 --> 00:05:32,916
The best of us.

86
00:05:35,333 --> 00:05:37,208
And so like her grandmother too.

87
00:05:39,125 --> 00:05:41,375
All the best of Annabel Lee without…

88
00:05:47,916 --> 00:05:49,166
without the broken heart.

89
00:05:58,666 --> 00:06:00,666
Fuck it.

90
00:06:02,333 --> 00:06:04,583
Uh, I'm glad you liked Annabel…

91
00:06:06,125 --> 00:06:09,791
but she's gone,
she's been gone a long, long time,

92
00:06:09,875 --> 00:06:13,416
and I would be lying if I said
I never wondered

93
00:06:13,500 --> 00:06:16,333
- how the fuck did this happen.
- How the fuck did this happen?

94
00:06:16,416 --> 00:06:20,375
We paid how much for security
standing right outside her fucking door?

95
00:06:20,458 --> 00:06:23,208
And he didn't think to knock
when he heard glass breaking?

96
00:06:23,708 --> 00:06:25,916
What about the launch?
You were in the fucking room.

97
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:27,625
We had ten people.

98
00:06:27,708 --> 00:06:31,083
And not one of them could stop this woman
from leaving the building?

99
00:06:31,166 --> 00:06:34,416
Not one could stop my daughter
from smashing a TV and assaulting my wife?

100
00:06:34,500 --> 00:06:38,916
Not one single person lifted a finger
when she went home and…

101
00:06:40,166 --> 00:06:43,166
The home was secure, I can't explain it.

102
00:06:43,958 --> 00:06:48,458
I had my… my hands on her.

103
00:06:48,541 --> 00:06:52,500
I felt her go apart like cold steam.

104
00:06:52,583 --> 00:06:54,958
Fuck! Stop it. Stop. Stop it! Shut up!

105
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,291
Fuck's sake!

106
00:06:57,875 --> 00:07:00,541
Think like professionals
for a goddamn minute. Please.

107
00:07:03,708 --> 00:07:05,125
The board's making its move.

108
00:07:06,666 --> 00:07:08,083
There's gonna be a vote.

109
00:07:09,416 --> 00:07:11,500
The board is just math.

110
00:07:12,083 --> 00:07:14,750
We've got blackmail material.
Strangle it in the crib.

111
00:07:14,833 --> 00:07:17,250
Oh, it's out of the crib,
it's starting college.

112
00:07:17,333 --> 00:07:21,916
Well, use the good stuff. Emergency.
Break glass. They'll fall in line.

113
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,500
Some. Not all.

114
00:07:23,583 --> 00:07:28,875
Freddie is the swing vote.
Way I see it, he's key to the play.

115
00:07:31,750 --> 00:07:32,916
Get him in here.

116
00:07:41,291 --> 00:07:44,041
<i>- He deserves better, Madeline.
- Hmm.</i>

117
00:07:44,541 --> 00:07:47,583
<i>I'm a realist,
and I agree he is compromised.</i>

118
00:07:48,750 --> 00:07:51,000
<i>But he is a great man.</i>

119
00:07:51,083 --> 00:07:56,000
He has an untreatable, incurable disease
that impairs his judgment.

120
00:07:56,083 --> 00:07:58,041
Right there, that takes him out of play.

121
00:08:00,125 --> 00:08:03,875
I am close, Arthur,
my algorithm project is so close.

122
00:08:03,958 --> 00:08:05,500
Do you know what that means?

123
00:08:05,583 --> 00:08:10,875
We could take this company out of pills,
out of poison, into tech.

124
00:08:10,958 --> 00:08:15,875
AI. Artificial consciousness,
virtual immortality.

125
00:08:15,958 --> 00:08:17,458
You take that to the board.

126
00:08:17,541 --> 00:08:22,875
You tell them that if I'm in the chair,
I take this company into the future,

127
00:08:22,958 --> 00:08:24,708
leave all of this behind us.

128
00:08:24,791 --> 00:08:27,375
The whole rotten legacy
goes out with Roderick,

129
00:08:27,458 --> 00:08:29,708
and we rebrand as a tech company.

130
00:08:29,791 --> 00:08:31,916
I imagine they'd find that appealing.

131
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,166
I imagine they would.

132
00:08:34,958 --> 00:08:36,958
And I imagine this isn't easy for you.

133
00:08:41,250 --> 00:08:43,875
It's the hardest thing
I've ever had to say out loud.

134
00:09:21,791 --> 00:09:22,875
Fred…

135
00:09:25,500 --> 00:09:26,500
Freddie.

136
00:09:28,541 --> 00:09:29,958
You must be feeling it a bit.

137
00:09:34,583 --> 00:09:39,291
Sweetie, you need to stop.

138
00:09:41,875 --> 00:09:44,083
Honey.

139
00:09:44,166 --> 00:09:49,708
No. Honey. Please, no. No. No.

140
00:09:55,625 --> 00:09:57,708
Works so fast, doesn't it?

141
00:10:02,916 --> 00:10:03,958
Oh.

142
00:10:04,041 --> 00:10:07,000
I heard Tamerlane killed herself
with a fireplace poker and,

143
00:10:07,083 --> 00:10:10,958
I swear to God, I can't…
I can't figure out what that means.

144
00:10:11,041 --> 00:10:13,916
I mean, how do you…
How do you even do that?

145
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,500
I knew I wanted to marry you
the first time we met.

146
00:10:25,583 --> 00:10:27,833
Do you remember? At the photoshoot?

147
00:10:28,791 --> 00:10:31,666
You came up to me, and I'd been approached

148
00:10:31,750 --> 00:10:34,541
and chatted up by grifters
and groupies before,

149
00:10:34,625 --> 00:10:37,625
but you smiled and it was so real.

150
00:10:38,833 --> 00:10:40,708
And I asked you why you did it,

151
00:10:40,791 --> 00:10:44,041
and you said that you saw me
standing there alone and you thought,

152
00:10:44,125 --> 00:10:47,750
"That looks like a guy
who could use a friend."

153
00:10:49,166 --> 00:10:50,125
And you were right.

154
00:10:52,166 --> 00:10:53,166
That smile.

155
00:10:54,291 --> 00:10:56,958
The smile stole my heart.

156
00:11:00,666 --> 00:11:03,000
Do you know what the headline was
that morning?

157
00:11:03,083 --> 00:11:05,333
When I took my board seat
from my predecessor?

158
00:11:07,041 --> 00:11:11,166
Business section of <i>The Times.</i>
"From ruthless to toothless."

159
00:11:12,125 --> 00:11:13,291
Is that how you see me?

160
00:11:14,333 --> 00:11:15,333
Toothless?

161
00:11:21,041 --> 00:11:22,041
Yeah.

162
00:11:23,666 --> 00:11:25,333
Yeah, yeah. Oh.

163
00:11:26,250 --> 00:11:29,958
Yeah. Now? Okay. Okay.

164
00:11:31,750 --> 00:11:32,958
It's an emergency.

165
00:11:34,166 --> 00:11:37,041
Dad needs me. I'll be back when I can.

166
00:11:37,125 --> 00:11:38,250
Maybe we'll talk then.

167
00:11:45,916 --> 00:11:47,750
Where did you put your wedding ring?

168
00:11:49,250 --> 00:11:51,875
It wasn't on your hand.
I saw footage from the party.

169
00:11:52,416 --> 00:11:55,791
I got some of your things back.
Your purse, your effects.

170
00:11:55,875 --> 00:11:57,333
Your… Your fucking phone.

171
00:11:58,250 --> 00:12:00,791
But no ring.
Where did you put the ring, Morrie?

172
00:12:03,125 --> 00:12:04,125
Don't move.

173
00:12:07,458 --> 00:12:10,208
- Don't make excuses!
- I am working on it.

174
00:12:10,333 --> 00:12:12,458
Apparently not.
The building is still standing.

175
00:12:12,541 --> 00:12:14,875
I've had other things on my mind, Dad.
Funerals-

176
00:12:14,958 --> 00:12:18,708
I told you, call the Jersey boys,
and get it done.

177
00:12:18,791 --> 00:12:21,666
I will. It's just a building,
I don't know why it matters.

178
00:12:21,750 --> 00:12:23,875
It matters because I have to count on you.

179
00:12:23,958 --> 00:12:26,666
It's a fucking crime scene
with our family's name all over it.

180
00:12:26,750 --> 00:12:28,458
Your brother's blood all over it.

181
00:12:28,541 --> 00:12:31,958
It matters because if I can't count on you
to do the building,

182
00:12:32,041 --> 00:12:34,416
then I can't count on you
for the little things,

183
00:12:34,500 --> 00:12:37,083
which means I can't count on you
for the big things,

184
00:12:37,166 --> 00:12:39,500
and I have to count on you, Freddie.
I have to.

185
00:12:41,041 --> 00:12:43,041
You're it, you see?
You're the fucking swing vote.

186
00:12:43,791 --> 00:12:44,958
The board's swinging?

187
00:12:48,500 --> 00:12:49,625
They haven't called you yet.

188
00:12:56,166 --> 00:12:57,833
This is it, Freddie.

189
00:12:59,583 --> 00:13:02,375
They're all gone,
and it's all about to fall apart.

190
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:05,458
So, I need to count on you.

191
00:13:05,541 --> 00:13:07,625
And when they call, and they will call,

192
00:13:07,708 --> 00:13:10,083
you just don't pick up,
that's the best message.

193
00:13:11,083 --> 00:13:14,750
And if they corner you in the street,
you tell them, "I'm Frederick Usher,

194
00:13:14,833 --> 00:13:18,041
I'm the repository of the hopes and dreams
of a fucking empire."

195
00:13:18,125 --> 00:13:20,333
"So take your
treacherous bullshit elsewhere."

196
00:13:21,750 --> 00:13:22,666
Can you do that?

197
00:13:24,291 --> 00:13:25,250
I can.

198
00:13:38,375 --> 00:13:41,041
<i>I mean, this is a very unpleasant process.</i>

199
00:13:41,125 --> 00:13:43,541
In fact,
for the symptoms you're describing,

200
00:13:43,625 --> 00:13:47,083
your husband would probably say
upping the dose would smooth you over.

201
00:13:48,291 --> 00:13:50,625
Not asking him. I'm asking you.

202
00:13:52,458 --> 00:13:56,625
I'm on what?
Two thousand milligrams of Ligodone a day?

203
00:13:57,500 --> 00:13:59,875
The second highest dose
you've ever heard of is…

204
00:13:59,958 --> 00:14:02,541
- Thirteen hundred.
- Thirteen hundred? Right.

205
00:14:03,958 --> 00:14:06,416
And then this happens
and they want to up it,

206
00:14:06,500 --> 00:14:08,958
and I know you work for Fortunato, I know,

207
00:14:09,041 --> 00:14:11,916
but you're still my doctor, right?

208
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:13,125
Yes, of course.

209
00:14:16,708 --> 00:14:17,791
Do you have kids?

210
00:14:18,625 --> 00:14:19,833
- Yes.
- Stepkids?

211
00:14:20,416 --> 00:14:21,250
Mmm-hmm.

212
00:14:22,958 --> 00:14:24,375
They ever call you a junkie?

213
00:14:27,291 --> 00:14:28,666
No.

214
00:14:30,416 --> 00:14:31,416
Mine did.

215
00:14:33,208 --> 00:14:34,333
They're all gone now.

216
00:14:35,416 --> 00:14:38,125
You watch three coffins
being lowered into the ground,

217
00:14:38,875 --> 00:14:42,000
two more on the way,
and you can't help it.

218
00:14:42,083 --> 00:14:46,750
It just makes you think, you know,
life is so fucking short.

219
00:14:49,958 --> 00:14:52,041
And the thing I keep going back to…

220
00:14:53,083 --> 00:14:57,708
is that Ligodone is more like heroin
than any other drug I've ever been on.

221
00:14:59,375 --> 00:15:03,875
Well, Ligodone has a lower incidence
of addiction if used correctly.

222
00:15:03,958 --> 00:15:06,125
Come on. It's just me and you here.

223
00:15:06,208 --> 00:15:11,791
So, tell me, how do I get off this
perfectly safe, non-addictive drug?

224
00:15:18,125 --> 00:15:20,166
Very, very slowly.

225
00:15:23,208 --> 00:15:24,500
<i>I see.</i>

226
00:15:24,583 --> 00:15:29,750
Yes, well, I am the repository
of the hopes and dreams of an empire,

227
00:15:29,833 --> 00:15:33,208
so I'm happy you're
thinking of the future.

228
00:15:36,416 --> 00:15:37,708
Wow.

229
00:15:38,666 --> 00:15:42,291
It is happening.

230
00:15:49,541 --> 00:15:50,458
Hey, it's Fredso.

231
00:15:50,541 --> 00:15:54,583
Yeah, uh, listen,
I know we're all set for next week,

232
00:15:54,666 --> 00:15:58,041
but things are moving fast here,
and things are happening for me,

233
00:15:58,125 --> 00:16:00,333
and I really need that building
to come down.

234
00:16:00,416 --> 00:16:04,125
I need it done, like, today. Tonight.

235
00:16:04,208 --> 00:16:06,625
Well, I… I don't care about
the fucking blasting permit.

236
00:16:06,708 --> 00:16:09,000
Get me a ball and a fucking crane.

237
00:16:09,666 --> 00:16:13,166
Because I fucking asked you to.
Because I'm the Usher ascendant.

238
00:16:15,708 --> 00:16:17,000
Yeah. No…

239
00:16:17,916 --> 00:16:21,583
The Jersey boys listen to Roderick,
and the Jersey boys listen to me.

240
00:16:22,166 --> 00:16:25,083
Yes, I will be there.
I want to see that building come down.

241
00:16:25,833 --> 00:16:26,666
Okay?

242
00:16:27,458 --> 00:16:29,208
Ha!

243
00:16:29,291 --> 00:16:32,041
Did you hear how fast he changed his tune?

244
00:16:34,250 --> 00:16:35,666
It's amazing.

245
00:16:35,750 --> 00:16:39,541
My whole life, you know,
they won't take me seriously,

246
00:16:39,625 --> 00:16:42,333
and then, suddenly, you're the new CEO…

247
00:16:43,750 --> 00:16:46,833
…and everybody
is fucking so accommodating.

248
00:16:47,833 --> 00:16:51,166
Well, almost everyone.

249
00:16:51,250 --> 00:16:52,583
You, Morrie…

250
00:16:55,416 --> 00:16:58,083
You know one thing
Dad was really big about?

251
00:16:59,291 --> 00:17:01,333
It was a lesson that he taught us all.

252
00:17:01,833 --> 00:17:03,666
One of the first things he taught us.

253
00:17:03,750 --> 00:17:06,041
No! Frederick! No!

254
00:17:06,125 --> 00:17:07,958
If you wanna test a bond…

255
00:17:09,458 --> 00:17:11,333
- No!
- You don't really need to break it.

256
00:17:11,416 --> 00:17:12,500
No!

257
00:17:12,583 --> 00:17:15,125
You just crack it a little.

258
00:17:16,125 --> 00:17:20,375
Now, he put me one rung
higher on the ladder than Tammy

259
00:17:20,458 --> 00:17:22,333
and he sat back and watched.

260
00:17:24,541 --> 00:17:28,333
Cracked, but it didn't break.
It did make it stronger.

261
00:17:31,250 --> 00:17:36,083
Second lesson Dad was big on
was getting your house in order.

262
00:17:39,083 --> 00:17:40,583
You don't have to be a tyrant,

263
00:17:41,333 --> 00:17:44,333
but if you don't want to be
consistently cruel,

264
00:17:44,416 --> 00:17:49,083
then you have to be sufficiently brutal
at least once to establish authority.

265
00:17:57,500 --> 00:17:59,208
Your fucking smile.

266
00:18:02,125 --> 00:18:05,291
I don't want to be consistently cruel,
that's not me.

267
00:18:09,250 --> 00:18:12,916
I won't break our bond.
You already cracked it.

268
00:18:14,083 --> 00:18:16,416
So I've just got to put our house
back in order.

269
00:18:18,458 --> 00:18:21,458
I'll strike one solid blow,
sufficiently brutal.

270
00:18:23,125 --> 00:18:26,541
So, let's do this once.

271
00:18:27,833 --> 00:18:29,083
Let's do it fast.

272
00:18:30,875 --> 00:18:33,875
Let's do it quiet.
And then we can start to heal.

273
00:18:42,416 --> 00:18:43,416
I've gotta go.

274
00:18:44,500 --> 00:18:46,625
I've got another house to put into order.

275
00:18:46,708 --> 00:18:48,208
Oh.

276
00:18:48,291 --> 00:18:51,083
While I'm there, I'll look for your ring.
Maybe it's still there.

277
00:18:51,166 --> 00:18:53,166
If not, I'll get you a new one.

278
00:18:53,250 --> 00:18:55,958
But if I do find it, I'll bring it home.

279
00:18:57,625 --> 00:18:59,666
And if you ever take it off again…

280
00:19:01,291 --> 00:19:04,000
I'll weld it to your fucking finger.

281
00:19:11,291 --> 00:19:12,416
Yeah? You good?

282
00:19:30,875 --> 00:19:32,958
Don't you fucking say that to me, Vinnie.

283
00:19:33,708 --> 00:19:35,958
That ball is gonna swing
at 8:00 p.m. tonight.

284
00:19:36,041 --> 00:19:38,416
That building is coming down
or else I'm gonna…

285
00:19:38,500 --> 00:19:40,250
I'm gonna come over there,

286
00:19:40,333 --> 00:19:43,666
and I'm gonna pull out your fucking teeth
with a pair of pliers.

287
00:19:46,166 --> 00:19:48,458
Dad. Where are you going?

288
00:19:49,125 --> 00:19:50,458
Got some work stuff to do.

289
00:19:51,041 --> 00:19:52,583
Can we talk first?

290
00:19:52,666 --> 00:19:53,666
Sure, peanut.

291
00:19:54,208 --> 00:19:56,625
I found this place. It's fantastic.

292
00:19:56,708 --> 00:19:59,625
Best in the country for burn treatments,
chemical burns.

293
00:19:59,708 --> 00:20:03,166
I mean, they've got top-notch
skin-graft work and everything on campus.

294
00:20:03,791 --> 00:20:07,166
Plus, I talked to one of the doctors.
They said they could take her.

295
00:20:07,250 --> 00:20:09,541
Why the fuck would you do that?

296
00:20:09,625 --> 00:20:13,208
I'm sorry, why the fuck
would you do that, sweetheart?

297
00:20:14,041 --> 00:20:15,500
She'd be better off someplace else.

298
00:20:16,583 --> 00:20:18,250
Lenore, we've talked about this.

299
00:20:20,125 --> 00:20:21,125
Where are they?

300
00:20:21,875 --> 00:20:22,791
Who?

301
00:20:22,875 --> 00:20:26,458
The specialists. The doctors.
Everyone you promised would be here.

302
00:20:26,541 --> 00:20:29,291
When you're at school,
they come here a lot of the time.

303
00:20:29,375 --> 00:20:31,416
- But she is fine.
- I don't believe you.

304
00:20:31,500 --> 00:20:34,416
And you're… You're not right, Dad.

305
00:20:34,500 --> 00:20:36,291
You smell like shit
and you look like shit,

306
00:20:36,375 --> 00:20:37,875
- and you're acting weird.
- Watch it.

307
00:20:38,416 --> 00:20:39,833
Do you know who you're talking to?

308
00:20:39,916 --> 00:20:42,958
Mom is not okay. You are not okay.
None of this is okay.

309
00:20:43,041 --> 00:20:45,750
And I found a place that can
actually take care of her,

310
00:20:45,833 --> 00:20:49,958
- and we can take her there tomorrow.
- I can't do this. You need to stop.

311
00:20:50,041 --> 00:20:52,750
- Stop it, please. Stop! Stop it!
- All you have to do is call.

312
00:20:52,833 --> 00:20:54,083
Stop fucking talking!

313
00:20:54,166 --> 00:20:57,291
If anybody spoke to me like this,
there would be repercussions!

314
00:20:57,375 --> 00:21:00,625
You do not get a free pass
because you're my daughter!

315
00:21:04,583 --> 00:21:06,250
I want to talk to her specialist.

316
00:21:10,750 --> 00:21:12,375
Your mother is resting,

317
00:21:12,458 --> 00:21:14,958
and you will leave her alone
while I'm gone.

318
00:21:15,041 --> 00:21:17,000
And I will deal with you later
when I get back.

319
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,291
Ma? Ma, can you hear me in there?

320
00:21:50,083 --> 00:21:54,833
Look, I've got to tell you, those noises
are starting to really bother me.

321
00:21:55,916 --> 00:21:58,083
- You say that's Madeline.
- It is.

322
00:21:59,083 --> 00:22:01,041
I think we ought to go down
and make sure she's…

323
00:22:01,708 --> 00:22:05,166
- And let me guess. That's Lenore.
- Bingo.

324
00:22:05,250 --> 00:22:07,833
I don't know what you're playing at
with me tonight,

325
00:22:07,916 --> 00:22:11,083
- but I've just about had enough.
- We're almost there, Auggie.

326
00:22:14,625 --> 00:22:17,000
You know what? No.

327
00:22:17,083 --> 00:22:19,833
Uh, please. Sit down.

328
00:22:19,916 --> 00:22:23,833
I'm wondering
why you're dragging this out,

329
00:22:23,916 --> 00:22:26,666
why the cat and mouse,
and I know the answer.

330
00:22:26,750 --> 00:22:29,625
Because you're getting
something out of it.

331
00:22:29,708 --> 00:22:30,750
It's not like that.

332
00:22:30,833 --> 00:22:33,708
And if you're getting something out of it,
whatever it is,

333
00:22:34,291 --> 00:22:36,291
- I don't have to give it to you.
- Please.

334
00:22:36,375 --> 00:22:40,458
Goodnight, Roderick.
And good luck with the dementia.

335
00:22:43,125 --> 00:22:45,041
You'll have me on murder.

336
00:22:47,208 --> 00:22:49,250
That's where we're going.

337
00:22:49,333 --> 00:22:51,333
You'll have me dead to rights on murder.

338
00:22:54,708 --> 00:22:57,416
More than one, actually.

339
00:23:03,875 --> 00:23:07,916
And here's where I stop in my tracks,
slowly return to the chair,

340
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,708
sit down and start the recorder again.

341
00:23:12,083 --> 00:23:15,041
That's what I do now, right Roderick?
In your little script.

342
00:23:15,125 --> 00:23:18,041
I mean, it'd be nice.

343
00:23:18,833 --> 00:23:21,333
But… that's the thing, isn't it?

344
00:23:22,666 --> 00:23:26,333
We've been here before,
you and me, right here. In fact-

345
00:23:37,958 --> 00:23:39,333
You see that too?

346
00:23:40,583 --> 00:23:41,916
You're trying to scare me.

347
00:23:43,625 --> 00:23:44,625
No.

348
00:23:47,083 --> 00:23:48,083
No.

349
00:23:50,750 --> 00:23:53,291
That's Freddie, I expect.

350
00:23:54,500 --> 00:23:58,083
They've been at me all night.
Make sure I get their stories right.

351
00:24:00,708 --> 00:24:04,500
Which is… It's fantastic.

352
00:24:05,583 --> 00:24:08,500
As my personal hell
is being micro-managed.

353
00:24:09,250 --> 00:24:14,791
No, what happens now, see,
is you start talking.

354
00:24:14,875 --> 00:24:19,083
And then all of a sudden
I spot a little hint of Freddie,

355
00:24:19,166 --> 00:24:21,791
but I try to ignore it
because you can't see him,

356
00:24:21,875 --> 00:24:26,125
and then he manages to get
a good jolt in there

357
00:24:26,208 --> 00:24:30,125
for my benefit while you look at me
like I'm insane.

358
00:24:30,208 --> 00:24:31,750
I'm not insane.

359
00:24:31,833 --> 00:24:34,875
And while CADASIL is no picnic,
it certainly isn't this.

360
00:24:38,583 --> 00:24:41,916
No, I'm afraid you're ringside
for my reckoning, old friend.

361
00:24:45,125 --> 00:24:48,458
And any second,
Freddie is going to peek up from…

362
00:24:50,250 --> 00:24:52,416
behind the chair,
and show off his C-section-

363
00:24:52,500 --> 00:24:55,000
Honey!

364
00:24:55,708 --> 00:24:56,708
Hi.

365
00:24:57,416 --> 00:24:58,250
Daddy.

366
00:25:00,958 --> 00:25:01,958
Daddy.

367
00:25:06,708 --> 00:25:07,541
Oh.

368
00:25:17,875 --> 00:25:22,166
We had to come for your big day.
Wanted Freddie to see his daddy be a hero.

369
00:25:42,791 --> 00:25:43,708
Mama.

370
00:25:43,791 --> 00:25:45,916
You guys were gonna stay at home.

371
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,125
I know, but these two thought Daddy
could use a little support.

372
00:25:49,208 --> 00:25:51,541
- Didn't we, Freddie?
- You should've stayed at home.

373
00:25:51,625 --> 00:25:54,541
- Hey! You guys made it.
- Yeah. Wouldn't miss it.

374
00:25:55,291 --> 00:25:56,958
Hey, remember in there,

375
00:25:57,041 --> 00:25:59,500
if you get scared or feel alone,
we are right here, okay?

376
00:25:59,583 --> 00:26:01,625
On the other side of the wall.
We're here with you.

377
00:26:01,708 --> 00:26:04,791
Yeah, why don't you come sit with me?
Let him get to it.

378
00:26:08,750 --> 00:26:09,708
Mmm.

379
00:26:10,583 --> 00:26:12,166
- You ready?
- Yeah.

380
00:26:17,583 --> 00:26:20,375
- You got this?
- Yeah. I got this.

381
00:26:24,291 --> 00:26:27,416
<i>We are on the record at 1:32 p.m.</i>

382
00:26:27,500 --> 00:26:32,666
Today is Thursday, December 20th, 1979.

383
00:26:33,791 --> 00:26:38,375
Mr. Usher, I'd like you to have a look
at Exhibits 2 and 3 here.

384
00:26:38,458 --> 00:26:40,041
Do you recognize that document?

385
00:26:40,125 --> 00:26:41,125
Objection.

386
00:26:41,916 --> 00:26:42,750
Go ahead.

387
00:26:42,833 --> 00:26:45,458
She's going to do that all day,
just getting it on the record.

388
00:26:45,541 --> 00:26:46,625
Doesn't matter with us.

389
00:26:47,166 --> 00:26:51,333
Uh, okay.
Um, it's a consent for care form. A CFC.

390
00:26:51,916 --> 00:26:53,666
And you deal with these routinely?

391
00:26:53,750 --> 00:26:55,708
I do. Since my promotion.

392
00:26:55,791 --> 00:26:57,666
And what purpose does the form serve?

393
00:26:57,750 --> 00:26:58,750
Objection.

394
00:27:00,166 --> 00:27:01,291
Uh…

395
00:27:01,375 --> 00:27:04,875
It… It's an agreement between the patient,
the provider and the company

396
00:27:04,958 --> 00:27:08,625
that lists all risks and side-effects
associated with the proposed treatment.

397
00:27:08,708 --> 00:27:11,000
Anything strike you as unusual
about that document?

398
00:27:11,083 --> 00:27:12,041
Objection.

399
00:27:14,125 --> 00:27:16,333
Not particularly, no.

400
00:27:17,208 --> 00:27:20,208
I mean, just the fact that it's here.
These are confidential.

401
00:27:20,291 --> 00:27:21,833
These are property of the company.

402
00:27:21,916 --> 00:27:26,291
- Nothing at all unusual?
- No, it's pretty standard boilerplate.

403
00:27:26,375 --> 00:27:27,375
Um…

404
00:27:27,458 --> 00:27:29,458
It's unfortunate
we couldn't get a family member

405
00:27:29,541 --> 00:27:32,125
to sign along with the patient,
given their age,

406
00:27:32,208 --> 00:27:35,708
but, as you can see here, it was witnessed
by a representative of the company.

407
00:27:35,791 --> 00:27:37,583
Have you ever signed as a witness
on a CFC?

408
00:27:37,666 --> 00:27:38,541
Yes, I have.

409
00:27:38,625 --> 00:27:41,583
And is this your signature?

410
00:27:43,583 --> 00:27:44,416
Yes, it is.

411
00:27:48,333 --> 00:27:49,541
How about this one?

412
00:27:50,583 --> 00:27:52,541
Yeah. That too. That's mine.

413
00:27:53,125 --> 00:27:57,208
To be clear,
you're telling us that you were aware of

414
00:27:57,291 --> 00:28:00,750
and signed this form on this day?

415
00:28:03,833 --> 00:28:05,041
- Yes.
- Objection.

416
00:28:05,125 --> 00:28:06,666
He's your witness, Pam.

417
00:28:06,750 --> 00:28:07,875
Mr. Usher…

418
00:28:12,666 --> 00:28:17,375
Mr. Usher, did Rufus Griswold at any time
exert any pressure on you,

419
00:28:17,458 --> 00:28:20,083
written or verbal,
to sign or falsify documents?

420
00:28:21,333 --> 00:28:22,166
No.

421
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,458
Has he spoken to you at all
about today's deposition?

422
00:28:25,541 --> 00:28:26,500
Not at all.

423
00:28:26,583 --> 00:28:29,416
Has anyone at Fortunato
spoken to you about today's deposition?

424
00:28:29,500 --> 00:28:30,958
No. Not at all.

425
00:28:33,416 --> 00:28:37,708
Mr. Usher, I will remind you,
you are under oath,

426
00:28:37,791 --> 00:28:41,083
you agreed to appear here today
as a witness for this office.

427
00:28:41,166 --> 00:28:43,000
Yes. Well…

428
00:28:44,583 --> 00:28:45,583
Um…

429
00:28:46,708 --> 00:28:48,916
Your man there wouldn't leave us alone.

430
00:28:49,958 --> 00:28:54,083
He stopped by my home
on multiple occasions pressing this issue.

431
00:28:54,791 --> 00:28:56,833
So, yes, I agreed to appear.

432
00:28:57,750 --> 00:29:00,375
Call me a witness,
call me a representative of the company,

433
00:29:00,458 --> 00:29:03,583
call me whatever you like,
I'd hope by appearing here

434
00:29:03,666 --> 00:29:07,916
and verifying for the record
what I'd said to Mr. Dupin in privacy,

435
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:12,333
that he would do me the kindness
of letting my family be in peace.

436
00:29:13,541 --> 00:29:15,875
Frankly, I didn't want to use this word,

437
00:29:15,958 --> 00:29:19,083
but the treatment of my family
in the name of whatever vendetta

438
00:29:19,166 --> 00:29:23,333
Mr. Dupin has for Rufus Griswold
borders on harassment.

439
00:29:24,208 --> 00:29:25,791
That's what I came here to say.

440
00:29:30,625 --> 00:29:31,625
Auggie.

441
00:29:32,250 --> 00:29:33,083
What's…

442
00:29:33,958 --> 00:29:34,958
Wait…

443
00:29:36,083 --> 00:29:38,000
- What's happening?
- Don't say anything.

444
00:29:38,083 --> 00:29:40,166
- What are they doing?
- Don't say anything.

445
00:29:40,250 --> 00:29:42,833
- Your husband's under arrest for perjury.
- Perjury?

446
00:29:42,916 --> 00:29:44,291
I told you to stay at home.

447
00:29:44,958 --> 00:29:45,791
Roderick!

448
00:29:45,875 --> 00:29:48,500
Don't say a word. Not another word.

449
00:29:48,583 --> 00:29:50,541
Not here. I will meet you at home.

450
00:29:54,625 --> 00:29:56,666
Hi. Madeline Usher.

451
00:29:57,666 --> 00:29:59,666
Do you have a minute? Can we talk?

452
00:30:00,333 --> 00:30:02,875
<i>What the fuck?
You knew this was gonna happen?</i>

453
00:30:02,958 --> 00:30:04,083
Of course.

454
00:30:04,166 --> 00:30:06,750
- My husband is in jail.
- He'll be out before dinner.

455
00:30:06,833 --> 00:30:09,291
You think Fortunato
is going to let him sit there?

456
00:30:09,375 --> 00:30:13,250
As of today he's the most
important employee at that company.

457
00:30:13,333 --> 00:30:15,333
They will have him out
before you can blink.

458
00:30:15,416 --> 00:30:16,541
He's charged with perjury.

459
00:30:16,625 --> 00:30:19,875
And that won't stick either.
He never signed an affidavit.

460
00:30:20,666 --> 00:30:22,791
It's Dupin's word against ours.

461
00:30:22,875 --> 00:30:25,166
What the fuck is wrong with you?

462
00:30:26,458 --> 00:30:29,458
Roderick was gonna do the right thing.
He was gonna be a hero.

463
00:30:29,541 --> 00:30:31,333
That's what I told my children.

464
00:30:31,416 --> 00:30:33,666
He did the right thing,
you fucking simpleton.

465
00:30:34,958 --> 00:30:37,250
The DA's embarrassed,
but he's not an idiot,

466
00:30:37,333 --> 00:30:40,000
and once he's staring down
the whole Fortunato legal machine

467
00:30:40,083 --> 00:30:41,875
without a single witness,

468
00:30:41,958 --> 00:30:44,375
his whole case is just
a handful of stolen documents.

469
00:30:44,458 --> 00:30:45,541
He will fold.

470
00:30:46,125 --> 00:30:47,791
Perjury too. He can't prove it.

471
00:30:48,625 --> 00:30:52,458
Right now, there is one name

472
00:30:52,541 --> 00:30:58,000
on the mind of every board member,
investor and executive at Fortunato.

473
00:31:00,125 --> 00:31:01,125
Roderick Usher.

474
00:31:02,083 --> 00:31:03,541
He is a fucking hero.

475
00:31:04,416 --> 00:31:06,541
You're gonna be swimming in money

476
00:31:06,625 --> 00:31:09,416
and promotions and protections
by lunchtime tomorrow.

477
00:31:09,500 --> 00:31:11,416
You'll be in a new house by Christmas.

478
00:31:11,500 --> 00:31:14,958
You would have been on unemployment
tomorrow if we'd done it your way,

479
00:31:15,041 --> 00:31:18,166
and Fortunato would have sued you
into a fucking crater.

480
00:31:20,958 --> 00:31:21,958
Jesus.

481
00:31:24,166 --> 00:31:25,416
I thought it was an act.

482
00:31:27,166 --> 00:31:30,541
I figured you just played the housewife

483
00:31:30,625 --> 00:31:33,916
so you could keep a roof over your head.

484
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:37,083
Spread your legs or suck his dick
twice a week and you're set.

485
00:31:37,166 --> 00:31:39,291
You never have to work a day in your life.

486
00:31:39,375 --> 00:31:42,166
And I thought, "Good for her,
she found her angle," but…

487
00:31:43,625 --> 00:31:45,791
…this is really you.

488
00:31:47,083 --> 00:31:48,083
Isn't it?

489
00:31:52,291 --> 00:31:54,708
I thought you only existed in the movies.

490
00:32:02,625 --> 00:32:04,000
You are so…

491
00:32:06,625 --> 00:32:08,583
small, Madeline.

492
00:32:13,875 --> 00:32:15,166
Your baby's crying.

493
00:33:27,083 --> 00:33:28,750
All right, I know you're here.

494
00:33:52,750 --> 00:33:53,833
Have a seat.

495
00:33:59,041 --> 00:34:00,458
These aren't for us, technically.

496
00:34:00,541 --> 00:34:03,416
They're for the boys later on,
but I don't think they'll mind.

497
00:34:04,416 --> 00:34:05,375
Please.

498
00:34:06,291 --> 00:34:07,416
Can I get you a drink?

499
00:34:09,166 --> 00:34:10,208
No, thank you.

500
00:34:13,416 --> 00:34:16,666
He's been coming here a lot
over the last few weeks.

501
00:34:17,375 --> 00:34:18,875
Not sure he even knows why.

502
00:34:20,083 --> 00:34:21,708
And you should see the basement.

503
00:34:21,791 --> 00:34:24,833
He's got boxes of stuff down there.

504
00:34:24,916 --> 00:34:25,916
More every day.

505
00:34:27,333 --> 00:34:32,833
He just sits here and he drinks
and he cries sometimes.

506
00:34:34,166 --> 00:34:35,166
Sad to watch.

507
00:34:35,791 --> 00:34:37,958
A man like that reduced to such a cliché.

508
00:34:39,375 --> 00:34:40,833
It really is you.

509
00:34:43,375 --> 00:34:46,000
It's amazing how much I've denied.

510
00:34:47,625 --> 00:34:48,875
But it is you.

511
00:34:50,791 --> 00:34:52,833
And somehow I knew you'd be here.

512
00:34:52,916 --> 00:34:56,416
Well, I left you the address,
don't pat yourself too hard on the back.

513
00:35:00,875 --> 00:35:03,750
Go ahead. Say your piece.

514
00:35:03,833 --> 00:35:05,750
I want to ask you to stop.

515
00:35:06,708 --> 00:35:10,041
Come on. Ask me? That isn't you.

516
00:35:10,125 --> 00:35:12,458
And frankly,
I think you've forgotten what I am.

517
00:35:12,541 --> 00:35:14,458
Fine then. I want to renegotiate.

518
00:35:14,541 --> 00:35:15,750
- You can't.
- Why not?

519
00:35:15,833 --> 00:35:17,916
- The ink is dry.
- For him or for me?

520
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:18,875
Madeline…

521
00:35:18,958 --> 00:35:21,291
Words got us into this,
words can get us out.

522
00:35:21,375 --> 00:35:23,083
You blaming Roderick or rhetoric?

523
00:35:23,166 --> 00:35:25,958
I want new terms,
and I shall have new terms.

524
00:35:26,041 --> 00:35:28,041
Or have you forgotten what I am?

525
00:35:28,125 --> 00:35:32,125
There she is. Ah, there's my Cleopatra.

526
00:35:32,208 --> 00:35:33,625
Everything has a price.

527
00:35:34,166 --> 00:35:36,666
Every negotiation's a point of entry.

528
00:35:36,750 --> 00:35:40,916
Every deal is simply
an expression of will. Mutual will.

529
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,583
We can sort this.

530
00:35:44,375 --> 00:35:45,291
Woman to woman.

531
00:35:45,375 --> 00:35:46,541
I'm not a woman.

532
00:35:46,625 --> 00:35:50,666
You know what I am capable of.
You know what I have done.

533
00:35:50,750 --> 00:35:52,083
You know who I am.

534
00:35:52,166 --> 00:35:55,958
You're a collection of impeccable,
elaborate masks

535
00:35:56,041 --> 00:35:57,916
in orbit of a stunted heart.

536
00:36:06,166 --> 00:36:08,458
That was cruel. I apologize.

537
00:36:10,666 --> 00:36:13,625
There are certain things
one shouldn't have to face in life.

538
00:36:13,708 --> 00:36:15,916
Time enough for self-reflection after.

539
00:36:16,708 --> 00:36:19,625
Yes. I know who you are.

540
00:36:20,875 --> 00:36:21,750
And were.

541
00:36:22,583 --> 00:36:24,166
And who you could have been.

542
00:36:25,041 --> 00:36:29,083
I see all three.
Standing shoulder to shoulder.

543
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,291
And together, they break my heart.

544
00:36:34,958 --> 00:36:36,666
Please. Sit.

545
00:36:49,541 --> 00:36:50,666
I apologize.

546
00:36:53,333 --> 00:36:54,500
Under the bridge.

547
00:36:55,916 --> 00:36:59,791
I was saying,
I know who you are, Madeline.

548
00:36:59,875 --> 00:37:01,583
You're one of my favorites.

549
00:37:02,500 --> 00:37:05,791
And I understand.
You find an adversary, you kill them.

550
00:37:06,333 --> 00:37:09,708
You find a hurdle,
you jump it or dismantle it.

551
00:37:10,458 --> 00:37:13,375
You find a locked door, you pry it open.

552
00:37:16,375 --> 00:37:18,916
Mom? Mom!

553
00:37:25,208 --> 00:37:26,333
<i>This is insane.</i>

554
00:37:28,125 --> 00:37:30,708
- Ludicrous. I won't hear anymore.
- Ludicrous?

555
00:37:30,791 --> 00:37:32,250
I'm talking about getting clean.

556
00:37:32,333 --> 00:37:35,166
Don't be stupid.
Can you imagine what that would look like?

557
00:37:35,916 --> 00:37:39,041
My own wife trying to get off my own drug.
It's a PR nightmare.

558
00:37:39,125 --> 00:37:40,333
I just want to be off it.

559
00:37:45,500 --> 00:37:46,916
Then you'll have no problem.

560
00:37:48,833 --> 00:37:49,791
It's not addictive.

561
00:37:52,041 --> 00:37:53,041
Okay then.

562
00:37:53,666 --> 00:37:54,583
It's not.

563
00:37:55,166 --> 00:37:57,125
But if you try to get off it,

564
00:37:57,875 --> 00:38:01,291
you can expect mood changes
and sleep changes and physical changes,

565
00:38:01,375 --> 00:38:06,666
flu symptoms, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea,
stomach cramping, reduced appetite,

566
00:38:06,750 --> 00:38:10,791
dilated pupils, blurry vision, shivering,

567
00:38:10,875 --> 00:38:13,750
goosebumps, rapid heartbeat,
high blood pressure,

568
00:38:13,833 --> 00:38:18,291
just imagine being so tired
you can't sleep.

569
00:38:18,375 --> 00:38:21,875
So exhausted that you can't relax.

570
00:38:21,958 --> 00:38:26,333
All soaked with feelings
of absolute desperation and dread.

571
00:38:26,416 --> 00:38:29,500
Basically, the closest analogy
I can think of is a fish

572
00:38:29,583 --> 00:38:32,666
being pulled out of water,
only at least the fish gets to die.

573
00:38:32,750 --> 00:38:33,583
I thought-

574
00:38:33,666 --> 00:38:36,541
Some people benefit
from rapid detox methods

575
00:38:36,625 --> 00:38:40,208
like clonidine, naltrexone or rapid
withdrawal under general anesthesia,

576
00:38:40,291 --> 00:38:42,416
but not with your dose.

577
00:38:42,500 --> 00:38:45,416
With your dose,
you've got to take it slow.

578
00:38:45,500 --> 00:38:47,375
10% reduction per month.

579
00:38:47,458 --> 00:38:51,750
You should be right as rain
in, um, three agonizing years.

580
00:38:51,833 --> 00:38:53,916
What the fuck have you done?

581
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,041
Don't play me like that
or did I get you wrong?

582
00:38:56,125 --> 00:38:59,166
Haven't you sucked a few cocks
for a fix before we met?

583
00:38:59,250 --> 00:39:00,958
Or am I confusing you with somebody else?

584
00:39:01,625 --> 00:39:03,250
You're a monster, you know that?

585
00:39:06,041 --> 00:39:07,166
I married a monster.

586
00:39:13,541 --> 00:39:14,583
No, dear.

587
00:39:17,375 --> 00:39:18,791
I'm Victor Frankenstein.

588
00:39:20,791 --> 00:39:21,833
You're the monster.

589
00:39:23,166 --> 00:39:26,958
You are my perfect creation.

590
00:39:27,041 --> 00:39:32,458
What was left of you after that accident
was a corpse on a slab.

591
00:39:32,541 --> 00:39:36,916
And Ligodone was the lightning.
I threw the switch, you sat up and look…

592
00:39:38,750 --> 00:39:39,708
It's alive.

593
00:39:39,791 --> 00:39:40,791
I thought…

594
00:39:42,791 --> 00:39:44,375
I thought that you loved me.

595
00:39:44,458 --> 00:39:48,250
I… You are a miracle.

596
00:39:50,833 --> 00:39:55,500
Your body just… soaks it up.

597
00:39:55,583 --> 00:40:00,000
It's like nothing I've ever seen.
Like my drug is water and you're a flower.

598
00:40:00,083 --> 00:40:05,958
You are the most perfect
and beautiful thing I've ever seen.

599
00:40:07,166 --> 00:40:10,875
You know, a huge part of you is Ligodone.

600
00:40:13,958 --> 00:40:15,541
How could I not marry you?

601
00:40:22,166 --> 00:40:23,208
Three years?

602
00:40:25,666 --> 00:40:26,666
Okay.

603
00:40:27,541 --> 00:40:28,625
I can do three years.

604
00:40:30,125 --> 00:40:34,500
'Cause yeah,
I've had a hard life at times.

605
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:40,041
And I've made mistakes,
but that's what I thought you saw in me.

606
00:40:40,833 --> 00:40:44,208
Because that shit made me fucking strong.

607
00:40:46,250 --> 00:40:52,625
So, I will take three years of hell
over a lifetime with you.

608
00:40:54,416 --> 00:40:55,416
Easy.

609
00:40:58,583 --> 00:41:01,000
You should know there's common ground
between us.

610
00:41:01,750 --> 00:41:04,333
You, your brother and I,
we share something.

611
00:41:05,250 --> 00:41:07,625
I recognized it the moment
I laid eyes on you.

612
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:09,916
Pain.

613
00:41:10,833 --> 00:41:13,416
You might accuse me
of being the broker of suffering.

614
00:41:13,500 --> 00:41:14,916
I could say the same of you.

615
00:41:15,958 --> 00:41:18,166
But I consider myself more its witness.

616
00:41:20,166 --> 00:41:21,458
You're in pain.

617
00:41:22,166 --> 00:41:26,291
You're exhausted. Uncertain. Frightened.

618
00:41:27,041 --> 00:41:31,125
For the first time in years.
I can't take that pain from you.

619
00:41:32,083 --> 00:41:33,916
But I can give you something for it.

620
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:36,125
And it's not a drug.

621
00:41:38,416 --> 00:41:41,500
Years ago, I offered you certainty.

622
00:41:43,125 --> 00:41:45,375
Tonight, clarity.

623
00:41:46,583 --> 00:41:47,791
No strings.

624
00:41:50,125 --> 00:41:51,458
I doubt that.

625
00:41:51,541 --> 00:41:53,541
Your brother,
you know what he would have been?

626
00:41:55,291 --> 00:41:56,458
A poet.

627
00:41:57,750 --> 00:42:01,833
That's where his talent was.
A broke poet, sure.

628
00:42:01,916 --> 00:42:04,333
But frankly, is there another kind?

629
00:42:05,250 --> 00:42:07,000
He and I share that as well.

630
00:42:07,791 --> 00:42:09,375
We both understand that…

631
00:42:10,541 --> 00:42:15,125
language in its highest expression
is musical.

632
00:42:18,791 --> 00:42:19,833
So…

633
00:42:22,250 --> 00:42:24,375
Some clarity for you.

634
00:42:25,875 --> 00:42:30,416
What's a poem, after all,
if not a safe space for a difficult truth.

635
00:42:31,375 --> 00:42:32,458
Here's one.

636
00:42:33,666 --> 00:42:37,708
Came to me when you adorable little things
started building cities.

637
00:42:39,083 --> 00:42:41,250
I call it "The City in the Sea".

638
00:42:43,875 --> 00:42:48,041
<i>Lo! Death has reared himself a throne</i>

639
00:42:48,916 --> 00:42:53,666
<i>In a strange city lying alone</i>

640
00:42:53,750 --> 00:42:55,625
<i>Far down within the dim West</i>

641
00:42:55,708 --> 00:42:58,666
<i>Where the good and the bad
And the worst and the best</i>

642
00:42:58,750 --> 00:43:01,041
<i>Have gone to their eternal rest</i>

643
00:43:02,416 --> 00:43:04,875
<i>No rays from the holy Heaven come down</i>

644
00:43:04,958 --> 00:43:08,500
<i>On the long nighttime of that town</i>

645
00:43:10,166 --> 00:43:13,833
<i>But light from out the lurid sea</i>

646
00:43:13,916 --> 00:43:16,750
<i>Streams up the turrets silently</i>

647
00:43:17,500 --> 00:43:21,041
<i>Up domes, up spires, up kingly halls</i>

648
00:43:21,125 --> 00:43:23,916
<i>Up fanes, up Babylon-like walls</i>

649
00:43:24,583 --> 00:43:27,958
<i>Up shadowy long-forgotten bowers</i>

650
00:43:28,041 --> 00:43:31,333
<i>Of sculptured ivory and stone flowers</i>

651
00:43:32,166 --> 00:43:37,166
<i>Resignedly beneath the sky
The melancholy waters lie</i>

652
00:43:38,041 --> 00:43:39,000
Ah.

653
00:43:39,875 --> 00:43:43,208
<i>But lo, a stir is in the air!</i>

654
00:43:45,291 --> 00:43:48,916
<i>The wave, there is a movement there!</i>

655
00:43:50,250 --> 00:43:53,500
<i>The waves have now a redder glow</i>

656
00:43:53,583 --> 00:43:57,125
<i>The hours are breathing, faint and low</i>

657
00:43:58,083 --> 00:44:01,708
<i>And when, amid no earthly moans</i>

658
00:44:02,541 --> 00:44:07,625
<i>Down, down that town shall settle hence</i>

659
00:44:08,416 --> 00:44:11,958
<i>Hell rising from a thousand thrones</i>

660
00:44:12,708 --> 00:44:15,458
<i>Shall do it reverence</i>

661
00:44:21,250 --> 00:44:24,083
I thought you were offering clarity.

662
00:44:26,708 --> 00:44:29,958
Let it steep a moment. It'll come to you.

663
00:44:44,541 --> 00:44:45,375
Freddie. Hey.

664
00:44:45,458 --> 00:44:48,666
Um, listen, we've got a couple
of small charges in there to help,

665
00:44:48,750 --> 00:44:52,250
but, you know, if we get caught on that,
I will tell them that you insisted.

666
00:44:52,333 --> 00:44:54,916
See, isn't it amazing
what you can accomplish

667
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,625
- when you pull your head out of your ass.
- Yeah.

668
00:44:58,166 --> 00:45:01,000
She's gonna go down,
but it's going to be slow and rough.

669
00:45:01,083 --> 00:45:02,958
- She'll come down?
- Yeah.

670
00:45:03,041 --> 00:45:04,208
Are you ready?

671
00:45:04,291 --> 00:45:05,833
Yes, we're ready to go.

672
00:45:05,916 --> 00:45:07,208
Let me have your radio.

673
00:45:07,291 --> 00:45:09,791
I need five minutes inside,
I have to do something.

674
00:45:09,875 --> 00:45:10,875
Oh, come on, man.

675
00:45:10,958 --> 00:45:13,333
You scrambled us here,
don't keep us waiting.

676
00:45:13,416 --> 00:45:15,375
I need five minutes.

677
00:45:15,458 --> 00:45:18,958
Then I'll give you an all-clear signal
and you can do whatever you do.

678
00:45:19,041 --> 00:45:21,541
Okay? Fuck's sake. Have a little patience.

679
00:45:33,708 --> 00:45:35,208
What a fucking joke.

680
00:45:38,500 --> 00:45:39,958
Should have died here, honey.

681
00:45:41,375 --> 00:45:43,500
Would've made you an honest woman.

682
00:45:44,333 --> 00:45:46,125
Ah.

683
00:45:47,791 --> 00:45:49,416
Ah.

684
00:45:49,500 --> 00:45:52,041
Well, Prospero, my brother…

685
00:45:53,416 --> 00:45:54,958
one last thing to say to you.

686
00:45:56,166 --> 00:45:57,916
Rest in pee, fuck face.

687
00:46:11,333 --> 00:46:12,750
What the fuck!

688
00:46:35,333 --> 00:46:38,833
Oh, honey.
This is embarrassing.

689
00:46:39,958 --> 00:46:42,208
At least close your pants.

690
00:46:42,291 --> 00:46:46,875
Otherwise it's just… Well,
it's humiliating enough, isn't it?

691
00:46:48,833 --> 00:46:50,916
No? Gonna let it fly?

692
00:46:52,458 --> 00:46:53,750
You're the boss, right?

693
00:46:54,833 --> 00:46:56,958
That's the nightshade paralytic.

694
00:46:58,666 --> 00:47:00,833
You got a little carried away back there.

695
00:47:00,916 --> 00:47:02,083
And, strictly speaking,

696
00:47:02,166 --> 00:47:04,750
I try to never intervene
this directly, but…

697
00:47:05,541 --> 00:47:07,791
…the pliers got me thinking.

698
00:47:08,416 --> 00:47:09,333
Fuck it.

699
00:47:17,833 --> 00:47:18,833
Yeah? You good?

700
00:47:19,666 --> 00:47:20,791
More.

701
00:47:25,250 --> 00:47:26,333
More.

702
00:47:27,791 --> 00:47:28,916
More.

703
00:47:35,916 --> 00:47:38,000
Don't you fucking say that to me, Vinnie.

704
00:47:38,708 --> 00:47:40,958
That ball is gonna swing
at 8:00 p.m. tonight.

705
00:47:41,041 --> 00:47:43,458
That building is coming down
or else I'm gonna…

706
00:47:43,958 --> 00:47:45,375
I'm gonna come over there,

707
00:47:46,291 --> 00:47:49,833
and I'm gonna pull out your fucking teeth
with a pair of pliers.

708
00:48:00,541 --> 00:48:04,500
I don't normally like to get my hands
this dirty, but honey, you earned it.

709
00:48:05,875 --> 00:48:08,250
All clear, start the music.

710
00:48:08,958 --> 00:48:10,208
<i>You clear?</i>

711
00:48:10,291 --> 00:48:12,666
The fuck did I say? Swing it.

712
00:48:12,750 --> 00:48:14,875
All ready?

713
00:48:17,125 --> 00:48:18,291
A dentist.

714
00:48:19,416 --> 00:48:20,666
That's the funniest part.

715
00:48:21,541 --> 00:48:23,916
That's what you were gonna be
in the other life.

716
00:48:24,416 --> 00:48:28,041
You would have been a dentist.
And a pretty good one.

717
00:48:29,666 --> 00:48:30,708
And I don't know,

718
00:48:30,791 --> 00:48:36,375
I guess that made what you did
feel worse somehow.

719
00:48:37,875 --> 00:48:39,000
No need to panic.

720
00:48:39,750 --> 00:48:42,583
No need to worry
what's lurking around the corner.

721
00:48:42,666 --> 00:48:45,166
You've been scared your whole life.

722
00:48:45,250 --> 00:48:47,208
And now you get to put that down.

723
00:48:48,541 --> 00:48:53,375
It's here, Frederick.
I'm finally, finally here.

724
00:49:00,666 --> 00:49:04,333
The cool thing is, like,
nobody gets to see this.

725
00:49:05,125 --> 00:49:06,708
From this vantage point anyway.

726
00:49:08,375 --> 00:49:10,291
So, at least try to appreciate that.

727
00:49:26,166 --> 00:49:27,541
That's not good.

728
00:49:44,416 --> 00:49:47,791
You know, I could have done this
just about any way I wanted to.

729
00:49:49,458 --> 00:49:53,208
Could have had a heart attack in your car.
Coke would have teed that up nicely.

730
00:49:54,416 --> 00:49:55,875
Could have been hit by a bus.

731
00:49:58,541 --> 00:50:00,416
But then you had to bring her home.

732
00:50:02,916 --> 00:50:06,375
And you had to grab the pliers.

733
00:50:18,458 --> 00:50:19,458
I'm gonna head out.

734
00:50:20,083 --> 00:50:21,625
I've got an appointment with your dad.

735
00:50:26,750 --> 00:50:28,333
He did you wrong, Freddie.

736
00:50:30,708 --> 00:50:32,916
You only ever wanted to be loved by him.

737
00:50:33,958 --> 00:50:35,958
You only ever wanted his approval.

738
00:50:41,125 --> 00:50:43,791
And it's still no fucking excuse.

739
00:51:50,833 --> 00:51:51,958
Freddie's dead.

740
00:51:54,958 --> 00:51:57,166
That means there's just us left.

741
00:51:57,916 --> 00:52:01,375
You remember the deal.
You remember the terms.

742
00:52:02,541 --> 00:52:03,583
I know you do.

743
00:52:06,708 --> 00:52:09,625
"Into the world together,
out of the world together

744
00:52:09,708 --> 00:52:12,375
or there's no deal," that's what she said.

745
00:52:12,458 --> 00:52:14,375
There is only one way out.

746
00:52:16,500 --> 00:52:18,250
And I think you know that too.

747
00:52:21,458 --> 00:52:22,583
I love you.

748
00:52:24,041 --> 00:52:25,875
More than anyone in the world.

749
00:52:28,333 --> 00:52:31,833
And now I need you to be a hero again.

750
00:52:31,916 --> 00:52:34,750
I need you to be my brother.

751
00:52:34,833 --> 00:52:38,833
We need you… to be our hero.

752
00:52:47,666 --> 00:52:50,375
These are the 80s. Ligodone 80 mill.

753
00:52:50,458 --> 00:52:53,041
And here's the thing,
once you start you can't stop.

754
00:52:53,125 --> 00:52:54,750
You have to take 'em all at once

755
00:52:54,833 --> 00:52:57,250
'cause if you stop it can hurt,
as you well know.

756
00:52:57,333 --> 00:52:59,875
But if you take it fast,
you won't feel it.

757
00:52:59,958 --> 00:53:01,958
Your blood pressure will drop.

758
00:53:02,041 --> 00:53:04,625
And you'll just… just go to sleep.

759
00:53:09,583 --> 00:53:11,541
Um…

760
00:53:11,625 --> 00:53:13,083
No other way?

761
00:53:13,166 --> 00:53:14,333
There's not.

762
00:53:15,208 --> 00:53:19,625
I have run it all down.
Every possible scenario.

763
00:53:19,708 --> 00:53:22,666
You trust me, you have always trusted me.

764
00:53:22,750 --> 00:53:26,125
This is the only one. This is it.

765
00:53:34,541 --> 00:53:36,500
Go ahead. You can do it.

766
00:53:40,583 --> 00:53:43,458
Now, that's a legend.

767
00:53:43,541 --> 00:53:45,666
That's a king.

768
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:49,375
You're saving us all.

769
00:53:54,083 --> 00:53:55,583
You're a legend.

770
00:53:57,583 --> 00:53:58,541
You're a king.

771
00:54:00,708 --> 00:54:02,583
You are saving us all.

772
00:55:33,958 --> 00:55:36,291
Can't let you out that easy.

773
00:55:38,625 --> 00:55:41,458
Hello again, handsome.
