[audio logo] [mysterious music] Freud believed that dreams
were the pathway to the soul. In dreams, social
mores don't exist. They can't prevent you from
acting on your desires. According to Freud's book,
"Interpretation of Dreams"-- Uncle Ray. Christie, what are you doing? Stop. Talk to me. You brought this on yourself
because of what you did. You don't really want this. You're wrong. The only thing I want is this. [gun cocks] [gunshot] But Freud's theory
lost popularity at the beginning of the 1960s. Analysts began to think
that dreams were little more than a series of
random thoughts. But recently, there has been
a resurgence of Freud's theory that dreams represent much more. FRANCINE (ON PHONE):
It's been four weeks. MIRANDA: That long? FRANCINE (ON PHONE): Yeah. Has she contacted
you before this? No. Uh, we're just as surprised as
you were that she called us. FRANCINE (ON PHONE): Well,
when you see her tell her we'd like to hear from her. OK. FRANCINE (ON PHONE):
Thanks a lot. Yeah, all right, Francine. FRANCINE (ON PHONE):
We'll be in touch love. To Doug. FRANCINE (ON PHONE):
OK, take care. We will.
FRANCINE (ON PHONE): Bye. Bye bye. That was Christie's mom? Mm-hmm. [scoffs] What are you doing? What? We're eating in a few minutes. Sorry. Yeah, apparently she
had no idea that Christie was going to call us. They haven't spoken
in the months since Christie moved here. Guess she never
calls her mom back. Well, I always got the sense
I didn't like a stepdad so much. Yeah. Mm, needs pepper. It's right there. Poor girl has been
through so much. It's amazing she got
into Westfield, you know? And that's not easy to do. RAY: No, Christie's
smart, that's for sure. Uh, Haley, don't make
any calls right now. Your mother is about to
put dinner on the table. Not hungry. [phone beeps] Since when is it OK for
a 13-year-old to ignore her father? [music playing] You must be Christie. And that makes you Selene. The one and only. [chuckles] After four months
of chatting with you online, I can't believe I'm actually
meeting you in person. It's almost surreal. New ID and bank
card with money for expenses, all under your
new name, Jennifer Janes. I called the motel and
made a reservation. The address is in there. How did you get all this? Internet. I got the social of a girl
who drowned when she was nine. She'd be your age if she lived. All you need is a social. I got to hand it to you,
you're pretty good at planning in this stuff. Jennifer Janes? I like it. [chuckles] I look like a
Jennifer, don't you think? Look, I got to go. You didn't tell anyone why you
were really coming out here, right? I mean, you said what
I told you to say, that your aunt was dying? Come on, I know
what I'm doing. Don't worry, I didn't tell
anyone about you or the plan. So tomorrow, go ahead
and book the appointment. The number's in there. And remember, payphones
and cyber cafes only. I wrote the address
of the closest one. It's in there too. I'll message you as soon
as I make the appointment. Good. I'll be on chat all day. Any questions? Nope. I love making money. This is going to be fun. [mysterious music] [stinger] Here you go. Merry Christmas, honey. Dad, I. Love it I bought it before
I found out your mom and stepdad are
buying you one too. I like this one so much more. Thank you. [intriguing music] Someone has to
make things right. So I don't see
any problem at all. We can definitely implement
these changes in the east wing and keep it under budget. Absolutely. And we've already
discussed the west wing. So we'll be in touch. - Nice to see you.
- Great work. Thank you. Thank you. I knew we could make the
renovations he wanted and still maintain the integrity
of the building. Yeah, and this place will
look fantastic when we're done. [chuckles] So how are things with Haley? Any better? Ugh, no. If she's not angry about one
thing, it's something else. And then when we
ask her about it, she says we don't understand. Well, that's
typical at her age. [sighs] I think she smiled
once in the last week. When we told her
that Ray's niece Christie was coming to
dinner, that she got halfway excited about. The cooler, older cousin, huh? [scoffs] [both chuckle] Well, maybe Haley will
have someone to relate to. The good news is they do
grow out of the "I hate you and everything is stupid" phase. Just give it a couple of years. Couple of years? God help us all. [birds chirping] [intriguing music] LECTURER: Five more
minutes, everyone. [beeping] Yeah, I'm here. [doorbell chimes] She's here! Christie. [chuckles] Aunt Miranda, hi. Hi. These are for you. How thoughtful. Christie, hi. It's good to see you. Let me take that coat. Haley, your cousin's here. Hey, Christie. Wow! God, you've really grown up
since the last time I saw you. [chuckles] Hey, dinner's almost ready. You want to come in the
kitchen while I finish up? Yeah, sure. [mysterious music] I can't tell you how excited
I was when I got accepted. I know it's just
my first semester, but so far, things
have been great. Haley? Uh, no, thanks. Christie, I spoke
with your mother. She said you two haven't
been very close lately. Mom and I don't see
eye-to-eye on a lot of things. She wanted me to
stay in Baltimore, but dad always wanted me to
come back to Philadelphia to go to school. Well, I'm sure they both just
wanted what's best for you. Most parents do, right? Mom doesn't really understand. I needed to come back here
to put things behind me. It was really hard
when I lost dad. [intriguing music] I mean, you wonder
how much pain someone must be in to want to
leave you like that. At first, I just felt
abandoned by him. Oh, honey, that's natural. You know, when something
like that happens, people tend to feel very angry. Not with me. I-- I didn't feel anger at all. I realized right
away that his suicide had nothing to do with me. You're right. Christie, there was nothing
that you could have done. I'm sorry. Um, would you excuse me? I just-- I think
I need a moment. Um, the bathroom? It's right down the hall. Thanks. [sighs] See? Her mom doesn't
understand either. Haley, it's different. [scoffs mockingly] [mysterious music] Dad, I'm home! The rehearsal got canceled,
the drama teacher was sick. Dad? Dad? [music intensifies] Dad? [sniffles] No. [sobs] Dad, why? Why, dad? You can do this. Miss you, dad. I'm sorry. I just wanted you to know that
I really appreciate you guys inviting me for dinner. We're so happy
you called, sweetie. So Haley, was at your
MP3 player in the hallway? Uh, yeah. I wasn't trying to be nosy. I just noticed it's got the
new Hardwire single on it. It's my favorite song right now. It is? Yeah. Hardwire is this
West Coast band. It's got this cool blend of,
like, hip hop and top '40s, don't you think? Yeah, totally. I did a review of the album
actually for my school newspaper. Really? Yeah. CHRISTIE: Great. [music playing] Thanks for the leftovers. I can't use the kitchen
where I'm staying, so I usually eat cold
cereal every night. Can't use the kitchen? Why is that? Oh, uh, renting a room in this
guy's house, but it's so filthy and it's loud and he has
people over all the time. But I just try to
stay in my room and lock out the
noise and study. Honey, why don't you
find someplace else? Oh, I'd move in a
minute if I could, but it's really
expensive up here. And student housing messed up
and didn't assign me a dorm. Anyway, it's OK. I'm a big girl. I can handle it. Here. Thank you. Christie, uh,
you can have this. They made extra copies because
my review got published. Wow, thanks, Haley. It's awesome you the front page. [chuckles] Guys, thanks again for
having me for dinner. Any time. We hope to see more of you. As for you, we have
to start homework. [soft music] Christie, do mind
my asking, how much are you paying for that room? Uh, $250 a month. Mm. I'll call you tomorrow, see if
we can't work something out. OK, thanks. Thank you. You're welcome. Bye. I'm sure you will, Uncle
Ray, I'm sure you will. [mysterious music] [snoring] Well, we could just pay
the difference so she could get a nicer place or-- I don't know-- we could
invite Christie to move in here for a couple semesters. In here? You think she'd want to? Well, I don't know, but well,
it would help her to save money and it would certainly be a
nicer environment than the one that she's in. Honestly, I think it
would be nice for Haley to have someone like
Christie to talk to. [phone rings] That was fast. [beep] Hello.
RAY (ON PHONE): Hey, Christie. It's Uncle Ray. Hi, Uncle Ray. RAY (ON PHONE):
We've got an idea. Why don't you move in with us? Really?
RAY (ON PHONE): Sure. That's so generous. Yes, yeah, of course. Thank you. RAY (ON PHONE): Tomorrow then? Tomorrow, OK. RAY (ON PHONE): We'll
expect you for dinner. CHRISTIE: Mm-hmm. RAY (ON PHONE):
Looking forward to it. See you soon. Goodnight. Hope you enjoyed your
perfect life, Uncle Ray. It's all about to change. Jennifer Janes? Hi. Right this way. Mom, I'm just saying you
could have consulted me. Haley-- [sighs] you seemed
to really like her last night at dinner. Hanging out with her is
different than living with her. Well, I'm sorry. I guess I should
have asked you first, but I honestly didn't think
that you wouldn't mind. I mind, mom. OK, I'll tell you
what, let's all just go into this with a good
attitude for one semester, OK? Is that something
that you could do? All right. Yes, like I said, everything
looked fine in the examination. But of course, it will
be a couple of weeks before we get the
test results back. Oh, and you wanted,
uh, a prescription for an oral
contraceptive, am I right? Right. [beep] RENEE (ON PHONE): Doctor,
Mrs. Walsh is ready in room 3. Thanks, Renee. Tell her I'll be in
there in a few minutes. RENEE (ON PHONE): OK. [beep] [phone rings] [beep] Hello. It's me. I just finished. I'm at a payphone a block away. CHRISTIE (ON
PHONE): How'd it go? [scoffs] More fun
than Disneyland. You talked to him alone? No, stupid nurse was with
us during the entire exam. But I had some
time in his office afterward when he was
giving me the prescription. Good. I'm moving into their
house this evening, so I'll message you later. Great. Bye. [hangs up] [beep] Hey, Haley. Looks like we're going
to be housemates. It's going to be great. Yeah. Wow, this is great. I wouldn't change a thing. [chuckles] Thank you so much. I-- I really appreciate you and
Uncle Ray letting me stay here. Oh, Christie,
it's our pleasure. [mysterious music] Haley, hurry up. We were late for
last week's lesson. HALEY: Yeah, OK. You have your music? HALEY: Yeah, yeah, let's go. [door closes] [click] Perfect. [typing on keyboard] [beeping] [chatter] [computer chimes] Shes got his
credit card number. God, she is good. Par-Fyum Restaurant,
Tuesday, 8 PM. [typing on keyboard] I know what to do. MIRANDA: Look at that kitten. Oh, no, Miranda, no cats. - Good morning.
- Christie, hey. Morning, Christie. Ooh, I got to get out of here. I got three interviews before
patients start coming at 9:00. CHRISTIE: Uncle Ray-- Yep? Uh, Miranda
mentioned yesterday you were looking
for a receptionist. Maybe I could help. Really? I mean, I had work study in
my senior year of high school in the admin office, and I have
a few mornings and afternoons free this semester. And well, I wouldn't mind a few
extra dollars to help support my caramel latte habit. Well, uh, why not, huh? Yeah. Sure. Great. Could I come by this
afternoon to see the office? Yes, I will tell my head
nurse Renee that you'll be in this afternoon. Now I've really got to go. Bye.
[kiss] Again.
[kiss] - Have a good day.
- Thanks. Bye. See you later. Miranda, is Haley OK
with me staying here? I kind of got the feeling
that she might not be. [sigh] Well, she's been
remote lately, antagonistic. But she's that way about
everything these days. She rarely even talks to us. Yeah, I picked up on that
the other night at dinner. She doesn't understand why she
can't have the freedom to make all her own choices yet. But obviously, she's
not ready for that. MIRANDA: Exactly. Yeah. Not ready? So that's why you invited
her to live with us, so you could sit around and
talk about me behind my back? Haley-- [scoffs] One
dinner and suddenly, you know everything about me? No, no, it's not like that. Whatever. You know what? I shouldn't even
have trusted you. [sighs] Christie,
it's not about you. This is exactly what
I was talking about. Great, just keep talking
about me, why don't you? I'm sick of living with
a family of backstabbers. She'll be OK. So the kitchen's over there. And there is a
cappuccino machine. This is where we keep
the old patient files. The medical supplies are there,
gloves, disposable gowns, that sort of thing. Drugs and controlled
substances are up there. Thank you. Oh, the office supplies,
they're in the copy room. Come on, I'll show you, OK? RICHARD: It's not like
you don't have the money. You just won't give it to me. Ray, come on, if I don't come
up with Christie's tuition, they're going to kick
her out next semester. RAY (ON PHONE): It's the
same old thing, Richard, all the time. Just $5,000. My interview went well today. I'll probably be able to pay
you back in a few months. RAY (ON PHONE): I've
heard that one before. RICHARD: Oh, come on,
that's nothing for you. That's like two days of work. RAY (ON PHONE): I just
can't do it again, Richard. I don't know what
else to do, Ray. You're the only one I know
who has that kind of cash. RAY (ON PHONE): I'm sorry. Fine. Thanks for nothing! [stinger] [keys rattling] [chatter] Can I have a glass
of red wine, please? Yeah, sure. [beeping] [hissing] DAN: It's just not
going to be feasible. Look, Dan, I agree with you. But I'm telling you, when
the new laws go into effect, it's going to change
the quality of research we do in the next five years. DAN I don't know, you know-- [hissing continues] Well, I think that we got
a lot done here tonight. Yeah. It was your money
well spent, huh? [chuckles] Show time. RAY: Good night, guys. Doctor Colton? Yeah. Uh, Jesse? No, no, no, wait,
Jennifer, right? Yeah. Yeah, you were in
my office last week. Mm-hmm. Sid, look, uh, I'll catch
up with you tomorrow, OK? OK. So what a coincidence. You must have heard this
was a good place too. Well, actually, a friend
suggested that we meet here, but he hasn't showed up yet. Hmm, I see. Well, I recommend the calamari. Thank you, doctor. I'll be sure to try it. OK, good night. Man. [beeping] [tone] OPERATOR: Information. Yeah, I need number, the
Auto Club Emergency Service. Well, obviously,
Doctor Colton isn't going to change his own tire. MIRANDA (ON PHONE): Hello. Honey, it's me. I'm still at the restaurant. I'm with Ray Colton. I believe he just called
you about changing a tire. MAN (ON PHONE): All right,
we talked a few minutes ago. Yeah, I thought so. Anyway, you can cancel that. There's someone here who's going
to help us with it right now. I'll call you
when they get here. MIRANDA (ON PHONE): OK, bye. [chatter] [sighs] Flat tire. I'm waiting for the Auto Club. Can I get a coffee, please? BARTENDER: Yes, sir. Your friend still
hasn't shown up? Not yet. He's not answering
his cell phone, so I figured I'd just
wait another 15 minutes. Well, they said it would be
15 minutes for the tire too, so I guess we'll see
who shows up first, huh? [both chuckle] Yeah, well the new
insurance won't kick in for another month, so I have to
wait to get that prescription filled. Well, I tell you what, I've
got samples in my office. If you can come get
them, I can give you a couple of months worth. That should hold you over
until your insurance kicks in. That'd be great. Thanks. You're welcome. [phone rings] Oh, excuse me a sec. Hello? Did he call the
Auto Club again? Well, yes, I'm at the
restaurant right now. CHRISTIE (ON PHONE):
Good, we're all set, so walk out whenever you want. I'm going home before he does. All right, bye. I don't really-- yeah,
you said you'd be here in 15 minutes. That was half an hour ago. MAN (ON PHONE): Sorry,
sir, we're on our way. All right, OK, I'll be here. I'm not going anywhere. Are they coming to fix it? Well, they are now. There was some kind of mix up. I don't know, they thought
I called and canceled. Anyway, they said they'd be
here in about 20 minutes. That was my friend
flaking on dinner. I guess I'll just go home. Oh, that's too bad. Bartender, would you
bring me the check, please, and put hers on my tab? BARTENDER: Coming right up, sir. Thanks. Oh, windy, huh? Mm-hmm. Is this you? Yeah, this is me. Oh, OK. All right, well, um,
thanks for the drink. And, um, I'll come by
the office tomorrow to pick up the samples. All right. Listen, you drive safely, OK? I will. Good night. Good night. [engine starts] TINA (ON PHONE): And then
he said he really wants me to hear his brother's band. So he asked you out? TINA (ON PHONE): Yeah. Can you believe it? And then what happened? TINA (ON PHONE): Well, then he
played me some of their songs on his iPod-- All right, Tina, I'm
going to call you back. TINA (ON PHONE): OK.
- Goodbye. TINA (ON PHONE): Bye. [beep] Hey. These are for you,
an apology gift. Thanks. I think we got off
on the wrong foot. Listen, Haley, you
were right, I shouldn't have talked about to your mom,
and it won't happen again. Can we still be friends? Yeah. OK. [music playing] Stupid. She's such a goody
two-shoes, trying to, like, be my best friend
right after talking about me behind my back. TINA (ON PHONE): She
sounds really creepy. She bought me two new CDs too. TINA (ON PHONE):
Well, that's weird. I know. TINA (ON PHONE): I
hate people like that. I hate people like that too. TINA (ON PHONE): [sighs] Christie. He needed your help. You should have
given him the money! [moans] Oh, my god, it's late. [breathes heavily] No class today. SELENE: Hmm, I like that one. How romantic. Let's enter his credit card. [mysterious music] [door closes] Must be nice to
live like this. This stupid shirt cost more
than my dad's entire wardrobe. [scoffs] God, you make me sick. You are so busted. [phone ringing] [chatter] Excuse me. Hi, can I help you? I'm here to see Doctor Colton. My name is Jennifer. Do you have an appointment? He's expecting me. Sure. [knocking] Come in. Ah, Jennifer, hi. I've got you a couple
of months worth. Pills are nice, but it's
not exactly why I came. I'm sorry, I don't follow. Well, let me spell
it out for you, you're a very successful doctor. You make a lot of money. I want $50,000. Excuse me. [chuckles] You are
going to give me $50,000. And if you don't, I'm
going to tell everyone that you tried to force me to
have sex with you last night. [scoffs] You can't be serious. I was a patient. I overheard from
one of your nurses there might be an opening
for a receptionist position. When I asked you about
it, you suggested we meet for drinks at Par-Fyum
for an informal interview. Oh, that's ridiculous. You called me into your
office after my exam. You told me exactly where
and when to meet you. A lot of people saw
us having drinks. You even picked up the tab. Bartender saw us
leaving together. You walked me to my
car and you told me the job was mine, just so long
as I would prove to you how badly I wanted it. Jennifer, honey,
nobody is going to believe that story, OK? Not in a million years. So take your samples and
get out of my office. I think they will. After all, you did
send me flowers this morning to apologize
for your despicable behavior. They must be on
your credit card. What in the world? Oh, it's incredibly easy to
get credit card information these days. Oh, and then you made up this
silly story about pill samples so you could get me in here to
tell me in person how bad you feel. Get the hell out of my office. Listen, talk to your
insurance company, trust me, they'll settle. Then I'll go away and everything
will go back to normal. You're not bilking me
or my insurance company because I'm going to tell them
exactly what you're up to. Bad idea. You have one week to
come up with the money, otherwise, my story goes public
and your career goes down the toilet. A sex scandal certainly
wouldn't look good for the vise president of
the Medical Association of Philadelphia. [door opens] Oh, I'm sorry. That's all right, Renee. Jennifer was just leaving. This is not OK, Doctor. Is-- is everything all right? What? Uh, yes. Thanks. I can't believe what you
told me about this woman. Miranda, it's insane. So what are we going to do? Quite often, the
insurance company will choose to settle just
to save the legal fees. She wants $50,000,
they'll offer $30,000, save themselves the
40 grand it would cost to prove she's lying. Settle? But she'll just go out and
blackmail somebody else. Probably. But that's ludicrous. You really want to encourage
that kind of behavior? What she's doing is a crime. She needs to be stopped. Believe me, you don't want
to go to court for something like this. These "he said, she said"
cases are hard to prove. I've seen it ruin people's
careers even when they win. Listen, I'm your lawyer
and I'm your friend. My job isn't to save the world. It's to make sure you come out
of this with as few scratches as possible. But what if they don't pay? I mean, there's no
chance of that, right? She is his patient. Well, I'm not so sure. I put in a call to
their legal department. But because she's claiming
it happened in public, they may deny covering it. So what are you saying? If they don't pay, I should? Let's not get
ahead of ourselves. We don't know what the insurance
company is going to do yet. This is so unbelievable. She even bought herself
flowers and charged it to my credit card. DOMINICK: Like she said, it's
not hard to find a credit card number. I should never have sat
there with her, you know? I mean, she was alone. her date didn't show up. I was trying to be nice. Oh, sweetie, there's no
way you could have known. Listen, I know you're worried,
but I'll help you through this. We'll start with the
insurance company. Miranda, this is delicious. Thank you. So did you find
what you needed? Uh, what I needed? You know, what you
were looking for. No, Haley, I don't know
what you're talking about. When you were in my
mom and dad's bedroom. In our room? Yeah, she didn't know I
didn't go to school today. I saw her coming
out of your bedroom. What were you doing in there? Haley-- No, no, it's OK. Um, I was in your
bedroom this morning. Why, Christie? [sighs] I went in there
because I wanted to know what size shirt Uncle Ray wears. Your birthday is coming
up, and-- and I really wanted to get you
something special, you know, thank you for letting
me stay here and everything. [chuckles] It was
supposed to be a surprise. Um, would you excuse me? I'm not really hungry anymore. Of course, Christie. I think I'll go steady
at the library tonight. Thank you. Are you happy with yourself? She was trying to do
something thoughtful, and you made her feel terrible. Mom, I am telling you, there
is something weird about her. Haley, stop it. No, dad, I'm serious. I don't believe for one second
she wanted to get you a gift. Look, I know you're still
upset about overhearing the conversation about you,
but she did not betray you and she doesn't deserve
what you're doing to her. You know what would be great? If once, before I die, you
actually believe me and what I have to say. [sombre music] When it rains, it pours. So the insurance company
hasn't given Dominick an answer yet? He thought they'd have
made a decision by now. I know what he thought. Miranda, I was there, remember? I'm not the enemy, Ray. Yeah, but you keep asking me. You know what I mean? You don't think this is on my
mind every second of every day? Come here. Wait a minute. You're right, I shouldn't
be taking this out on you. I'm sorry. It's OK. [peck] Hi. Hey. Oh, uh, Christie, I wanted
to remember to tell you, um, tonight, Ray
teaches his class and Haley is going to
be at a friend's house and I actually have
a business meeting, so I thought I'd just put
some pasta or something in the refrigerator
for you for dinner. Oh, thanks, but don't
go to any trouble. I, uh-- I actually have a date. Oh. Well, just wanted to
make sure you were OK. Thanks. [music playing] I'm not the one you
need to worry about. Everything's going according to
plan, The guy's a stress case. So the good news is we'll get
our money one way or another. He wants us to be over. Oh, that's terrific. I knew he would. Yeah. Girl, you should
be doing cartwheels. This is the easiest
payday you've ever had. You're right. And I know just the
way to celebrate. I got invited to
a party tonight, and you can be my guest. Ooh, tell me more. CHRISTIE (ON PHONE): A private
party, rich men, free booze. Wealthy man? Count me in. Good. Meet me there at 8:30. Enter through the back,
I'll give you directions. You should write it down. [chatter] Going to lunch? Yeah, Doctor Colton asked me
to pick something up for him. You know, he seems to have a
lot in his mind these days, huh? Yeah. Listen, I'll
see you later, OK? Bye. Goodbye. [mysterious music] RAY: I need those files. ASSISTANT: OK, sure thing. What more information
do they need? I-- I'm not understanding
here, why can't they just give us an answer
one way or the other? It's not that simple. You know nothing ever
happens quickly when it comes to insurance companies. Yeah, I know. I'm just frustrated. I'll call them again tomorrow. RAY (ON PHONE): In the morning? Yeah, first thing. RAY (ON PHONE): Thanks. All right, bye. [knocking] Come in. [door opens] [door closes] Here you go. Thanks. I'm about to take off. Do you need anything else? Do you want me to make
you a latte or something? No, no, I'll get a coffee
when I get to campus. Um, Uncle Ray, is
everything OK with you? Is something really
bad going on? [sighs] Truthfully,
yeah, something pretty bad. Do you want to talk about it? No, there's no
reason to involve you. But I appreciate your concern. OK Goodnight. Goodnight, honey. Guess this is it. [police sirens] Where the hell is this party? [groans] Sorry, Selena, I liked you. If it wasn't for Ray, then
this wouldn't be happening. You thought this
was about money, but it's about something much
more important than that. - Thank you.
- Yeah. [radio chatter] Look at this. The driver's license is fake. Jennifer Janes
isn't a real name. The address didn't
check out either. How long before we know
if her prints are on file? A couple of hours. That prescription that
we found in her purse-- The one that she didn't get
filled for birth control pills? HOGUES: Who's the MD on that? Um, Doctor Ray Colton. 2114 Skylar, suite 600. 2114?
ADAMS: Mm-hmm. Yeah, I think I'll
head over there, see if they have anything else
on her in their patient files. I'll get forensics
to speed things up. Morning, guys. Hey. Did you enjoy your big night? Huh? This one. Your date, how was it? [liquid pours] Oh, it was OK. We had a nice dinner. Oh. Where'd you go? Um, the Harbor House. Oh, it's supposed to be great. Yeah. Oh, better get to class. Bye. Bye. Did you finish? I got to go. Good luck on the test. Love you. [inhales and exhales sharply] Love you too, mom. The doctor isn't in yet,
and I don't have the authority to let you look at
confidential patient files. I could give him a
call if you'd like. Well, that'd be great. Thanks. Sure Doctor
Colton, good morning. RAY: Good morning. Doctor Colton? Yes. Detective John Hogues,
Philadelphia Metro Homicide division. Homicide? Yeah. We believe the body of this
woman we found this morning is one of your patients. I was hoping we could glance
through her patient file. We found a prescription
signed by you and her purse. Oh, my god, that's terrible. Of course, you
can see her files. Who was she? Jennifer Janes. She was a patient of yours. The prescription
was fairly recent. Yes, yes. Uh, Renee-- Yes? Detective Hogues would like
to see Jennifer Janes' patient file. RENEE: Of course. That should only take
a couple of minutes. Thanks. Appreciate your cooperation. You're welcome. Dominick, it's Ray. DOMINICK (ON PHONE): Ray. I put in a call to the insurance
company already this morning. No, Dom, a detective
was just here. That girl was found murdered. What? I don't know any
of the details. He wanted to see
her patient file. Did you see anything to-- RAY (ON PHONE): No, nothing. I didn't know what to say,
that's why I'm calling you. Listen, don't leave
it to them to find out she was blackmailing you. We need to go in
there this afternoon. [chatter] So guess what I found
in her hotel room. Flowers, roses with
an apology card. Apology card from who? Guess. The good, old doctor. Oh, now that's interesting. I just got off the
phone about half an hour ago with, uh, the good
doctor's high-priced lawyer. Seems they want to
come in and talk. Oh, my god, Ray,
this is unbelievable. RAY (ON PHONE):
You're telling me. Do you want me to go to
the police station with you? RAY (ON PHONE): No,
that won't be necessary. Oh. Well, it's good
Dom will be there. RAY (ON PHONE): Yeah,
we'll handle it. Don't worry. All right. You'll call me as
soon as you're done? RAY (ON PHONE): Yeah. Love you. Yeah, I love you too. RAY (ON PHONE): Bye now. So Selene Halverson-- that was her real
name, by the way-- she arranged this whole thing-- the flowers, the
bumping into you at the restaurant, all of this
so she could blackmail you? Yes. She was a professional. Obviously, she had
done this kind of thing many times before. She even told me not to worry,
that the insurance company would pay. But they weren't going to? We never said that. I was still in the process
of working on it last night. But it didn't look good. Like I said, we
were negotiating. Where'd you go last
night after class let out? I went home. What time did you get there? I don't know. About 9. Is there anyone at the
house that can confirm that? No. My daughter was at a friend's. My niece, I think,
was on a date. And my wife was at
a business meeting. That's a bit of a
coincidence, don't you think? I mean, the woman
that's blackmailing you is murdered four blocks from
where you work just after you get out of class, and nobody
knows what time you got home. Yes, I do think that's exactly
what it was, a coincidence. If you think
Doctor Colton could be a suspect in
this case, you're barking up the wrong tree. There were probably lots
of people that wanted to see this young woman dead. Doctor, why did you come in
today to give us a statement? Because I wanted you to
hear it from me exactly what this young woman was up to. Well, doctor, you
don't fit the profile of a-- of a criminal, but, uh,
we wouldn't be doing our jobs if we didn't explore
every possibility. I understand that, detective,
but I didn't kill her. JOURNALIST (ON PHONE): Metro. Hi, yes, I have
some information on an article you ran today. JOURNALIST (ON PHONE): OK. But I'd like to
stay anonymous. JOURNALIST (ON
PHONE): No problem. What is it? About the woman found
dead near the University. JOURNALIST (ON PHONE): Go on. The prime suspect in the
case is Doctor Ray Colton. His office is on Skyler. That's all I can tell you. JOURNALIST (ON PHONE):
Yeah, thanks for the tip. Because of my
connection with Selene, I kept getting the feeling
that I'm their main suspect. Well, I'm sure they just
have to look at anyone she could have possibly
been involved with. And once they get more
information, you'll be cleared. RAY: Well, it's worse
than that, Miranda. If word of this even
leaks out, I'll be ruined. What did the police say? They'd be in touch. [sighs] Christie, we didn't
hear you come in. Sorry to interrupt. [phone rings] I'll get it. [beep] Hello. CARMEN (ON PHONE):
Carmen Simms, Star News, calling for Doctor Colton. Hang on. It's Carmen Simms from the
Philadelphia Star News. What does she want? Just to talk. No, I'm not available. - Oh, OK.
- Thanks. Mm-hmm. Sorry, he's
unavailable right now. See what I mean, Miranda? This is going to get
bad, really, really bad. CHRISTIE: OK. [beep] [hangs up] [rock music playing] Well, hopefully, she'll
move out by winter break. If I'm lucky. Oh, by the way, she
had a date last night at the place your brother works. I wonder if he saw her there. Um, Todd doesn't
have a job right now. I thought he worked
at the Harbor House. Uh, no, not since it closed
down, like, a month ago. Closed down? [scoffs] Guess little Miss
Christie didn't want you to know where she was. [mysterious music] So they're going
to go with the story? DOMINICK (ON PHONE):
I'm afraid so. Dom, is there any way
to keep my name out of it? RAY (ON PHONE): Hang on a sec. [sighs] Sure, I'll hold. You're going to
be here for dinner? No, um, I'm going to
my study group tonight. [phone rings] Hello. JOSH (ON PHONE): Christie? CHRISTIE: Josh, look,
now's not a good time. Hang on. [footsteps] JOSH (ON PHONE): Where are you? Just wait a minute. [door opens] [door closes] [mysterious music] Listen, I appreciate
the call, but I'm fine. JOSH (ON PHONE): Are you sure? No, really, I'm fine. JOSH (ON PHONE): Are you still
having those feelings of rage? Listen to me, Josh, I
am controlling my anger, and I don't need your help! No, no, I don't want to talk
about my uncle again, OK? I wasted enough time
doing that in Baltimore. I have to go. [hangs up] RICHARD: Merry Christmas, honey. CHRISTIE: Oh, dad, I like
this one so much more. Thank you. It's almost done, dad. Good night, dad. Good night, honey. Mom, I didn't want to say
anything in front of dad, but I need to talk to you. It's important, about Christie. Haley, what now? First, she lied to
us about where she was. She didn't go to the
Harbor House on her date because it's closed. Haley, OK, maybe she did lie. Maybe she's got a
perfectly good reason why she doesn't want us to
know where she went for dinner. It's really none
of our business. It gets weirder. Tonight, I heard her
yelling on the phone to some guy named Josh. She told him that she was
controlling her anger. She also said that she didn't
want to talk about dad. She didn't want to
talk about your father? Yes. She told him she'd wasted enough
time doing that in Baltimore. What do you think that means? Are you sure
that's what she said? HALEY: Positive. Look, I know you don't
want to believe me, but nothing has been the
same since she moved in. Mom, you've got to
trust me, please. I'll think about it, OK? OK. Thank you for telling me. [sighs] HALEY: She said that she
was controlling her anger. She also said that she didn't
want to talk about dad. [chatter] So what did her mom say
when you talked to her? Oh, just that
Christie kept to herself when she moved in with them,
and that this guy Josh seemed to be the only person
that she would relate to. She met him at some support
group she used to go to. Why do you think
he'd bring a Ray? You know, I don't
know, and that's what bothers me the most. I wonder if there's some
connection between Christie controlling her anger and Ray. So what are you going to do? Francine gave me
the phone number where she thinks I
can reach this guy, but I haven't called yet. I don't want it getting back to
Christie that I'm checking up on her. I know you're trying
to do the right thing, but what if Haley's right? I mean, it does seem strange. [sighs] I agree. Maybe I'll call him. Can't hurt. Yeah. [phone rings] Excuse me. Research. MIRANDA (ON PHONE): May
I please speak to Josh? This is Josh. MIRANDA (ON PHONE): Do you
remember a girl named Christie Colton? Well, of course,
I remember Christie. I spoke to her yesterday. MIRANDA (ON PHONE):
I'm her aunt Miranda. [mysterious music] Miranda Colton? MIRANDA (ON PHONE): Yes. Your husband was
Richard's brother? MIRANDA (ON PHONE): Yes. I need to ask you
some questions. Uh, well, now's
not a good time, but I do think we need to talk. MIRANDA (ON PHONE): Should
I call you back later? No, I mean, in person. JANET (ON PHONE): Hello. Hey, Janet, it's Miranda. JANET (ON PHONE): Hey. You know, you were
right about calling Josh. In fact, I'm on my
way to Baltimore now. Um, would you mind sending
those drawings in for me? JANET (ON PHONE):
The revised set? Yeah. JANET (ON PHONE):
Sure, no problem. Great, thanks. JANET (ON PHONE): Call me. Yeah, I'll call you later. Christie joined the
support group right after she moved to Baltimore. A group for people who
have lost their parents? Yes. Mine were killed in a
car crash five years ago. Oh, I'm sorry. Thank you. She was very angry about
having to live with her mom and stepdad, and I
felt sorry for her. We sort of became close. You dated? No. I don't think Christie
would ever let anyone get that intimate with her. I always felt that her father's
suicide had more of an impact than anyone ever realized. Anyway, I did what
I could to help her. I don't think I
accomplished much. Towards the end, before she
went back to Philadelphia, she didn't want to have much to
do with me or the group itself. All she wanted to do was chat
on the internet with some girl. A girl? Who? She mentioned her name
once when we sort of fought about it, but I don't remember. I got to admit, I was shocked
when you called and said Christie was staying with you. Why? She hated your husband. She opened up to me
one night and told me how he was to blame for
everything that ever happened with her father. She blamed Ray? I told her she needed
to work through it. But honestly, with
the rage she had, I didn't think it
would ever be possible. Oh, my god. Her hostility just took over
and I couldn't get through to her. I'm sorry, I have to go. Miss Colton-- Thank you. So who we got? Mrs. Henderson. We're running
behind, aren't we? About half an hour. Oh, great. Oh, better go on
in, I'll get this. OK. Hi, honey. Hey, do you have a minute? RAY (ON PHONE): Sorry. No, really, I don't. I was talking to Dominick
for half an hour. I'm really backed
up with my patients. Oh. Is it something important? Uh, no, it's OK, we
can talk when I get home. OK, great, I'll see you then. Look, I'm sorry we're
just crazy today. Thanks for understanding, honey. It's OK. RAY (ON PHONE): Bye. Hey. Do you want to grab a drink? Oh, no, thanks. I told my uncle I'd stay
and finish up the filing. He seemed really stressed. Oh, you can say that again. It seems to get
worse every day, huh? Well, I guess it's
just you guys then. I think I'm going to go home
and take a nice, warm bath. [chuckles] - I'll see you tomorrow, OK?
- Mm-hmm. Bye.
- Bye. [door closes] No, I don't like to
let those symptoms go. Why don't you come
in tomorrow morning, and we will fit you in
after the first appointment? PATIENT (ON PHONE):
OK, that's perfect. All right.
PATIENT (ON PHONE): Good night. See you then. Good night. [hangs up] [sighs] I thought you
could use a latte since it looks like you're
going to be here for a while. Oh, thank you. All I have to do is
get through this stack, and I'm going to
call it a night. By the way, Renee
left a whole list of refills that
need to be approved and a few phone messages
that looked pretty important. Oh, great. OK, well, bring me the calls and
pull the files for the refills. CHRISTIE: OK, sure. Thank you. [mysterious music] The drugs should be
kicking in about now. Sorry about the wait. I had to answer a call. Oh. Are you OK? Yeah, I guess I'm just
more tired than I thought. Well, uh, just
another half hour, and we should be all
finished up here. You know, um, actually, I
think I should go home soon. [phone rings] Hello. JOSH (ON PHONE): Mrs.
Colton, it's Josh. I kept thinking after you
left, and I remember the name of the friend she used to
talk to on the internet. I guess you want to
get in touch with her. Yes, yes, of course. JOSH (ON PHONE):
Her name was Selene. [music intensifies] Mrs Colton? Um, uh, yes, I heard you. Uh, thank you very much, Josh. You look like you're
not feeling well. Let me guess, you're
feeling sluggish and your legs are going numb? Losing motor control? Hmm. that's just what the
internet said when I researched this. See, you took an
awful lot of this. That coffee was so strong, you
probably couldn't taste it. [phone rings] I'll get that. [ringing continues] Miranda. I need to-- Sorry, but you won't be
talking to her anytime soon. RAY (ON VOICEMAIL): Please
leave a message after the tone. [beeping] Ray, hi, it's me. Um, call me on my cell as
soon as you get this, OK? I'm going to try
you at the office. [groans] CHRISTIE: Chest pains? [moans] That's to be expected. [phone rings] We'll let that go to voicemail. [dialing tone] Pick up. Pick up. RENEE (ON VOICEMAIL):
Doctor Colton is not available right now. Please leave your name and-- [hangs up] [phone rings] [beep] Hello. Haley, it's mom. Is your dad back yet? No, but I talked to him
when I got back from school. He said that he and Christie
were going to stay late at the office. What? Um, OK, uh, if you
speak with him, tell him to call me
on my cell right away. I don't understand. Let me explain it to you. You see, I figured this would
be the best way for a doctor to kill himself. At least this way, you can still
have an open casket funeral, something my dad never had. Oh, my god, Christie, why? Why? You're asking me, why? How about because it's
been two years 10 months and 6 days since my father sat
in our kitchen, loaded his gun, and blew his brains
out because of you? Me? [phone rings] [groans] No, no, no, no, no, this is
the end of the line for you, Ray. I know what happened. I know what you did. When my dad needed help,
financial help so that he could support me, you said no. [coughing] You wouldn't loan money
to your own brother. It wasn't his
fault. He got fired. He couldn't get another job! He did everything that he could
to make sure that I was OK, so that I didn't have
to change schools again, so that there was
food on our table. You didn't even care. Christie-- He came to you for help and
you turned your back on him. He lost everything, and
you didn't do a damn thing about it. But that is not true. Christie, you don't
know the whole story. Like hell, I don't. He never asked for help
from anyone except for you. You're the reason he's gone. [honking] Move, move! [breathing heavily] Christie, listen to
me for a second-- How does it feel to have your
whole life taken away from you? Your career? Your reputation? Your dad, when he lost his
job, he came to me for money. You shut up. I gave it to him. CHRISTIE: No, I don't
want to hear this. $10,000. You're a liar. Over the next 18 months,
I gave him another $20,000. Dad never had that money! Christie, he did. He never gave it to you. Come on, man, I need it. I gave you 10
grand two months ago. Where is it? Christie's tuition. That's a lie. What did you do with the money? Look, I just thought if I
could make it last longer, I wouldn't have to come to you. Oh, stop lying. I didn't think the Eagles
could cover the spread. You gambled it. It was a fluke, Ray. I should have won. You know I can predict
this kind of thing. God's sake,
Richard, just enough. Look, if I don't come up
with Christie's tuition, they're going to kick her out. And I'm two months
behind on the house. [inhales and exhales sharply] OK, listen, I will go to
Christie's school on Monday and pay her tuition myself. Also, I want your
mortgage statements to start coming here. I'll write the bank a
check for what's past due. No, Ray, please, just
write me a check now and I'll take care
of everything. I'll help you take care
of your family, Richard, but I'm not giving you
another dime, not ever. You don't trust me. I'm your brother. That's right, you're my
brother, and I don't trust you. Richard, this gambling obsession
is destroying your life. Now we have got to get
you some real help. I knew I shouldn't
have come here. Getting all high and mighty,
telling me that I need help? We're not all as
lucky as you, Ray. Richard-- RICHARD: Go to hell! RAY (VOICEOVER): That was
two days before he committed suicide. No. No, you're lying. Dad would have never gambled
away the money that we needed. [groans] My brother-- he was very sick,
but he loved you. [thrilling music] [tires screeching] Christie, Christie,
I need your help. The Dilantenol-- I know what it will do. You're going to fall asleep. And then 20 or 30 minutes
after that, your heart will beat for the last time. And then this will all be over. Because you didn't help
him, that's why he left me. Dear Miranda and Haley, you
know how much I love you both. I didn't mean to hurt you. Please forgive me. [door opens] Ray? Ray, are you here? [gasps] [moans] Miranda? It's OK. It's all over. He's already dead. There's nothing else
that you can do. He went peacefully,
which is more mercy than he showed his brother. I didn't want you to
come here and see this. I wanted-- I wanted Haley
to have at least one parent survive. [thrilling music] No! It's his fault. Ray. CHRISTIE: Miranda! Please! Miranda, listen to
me, it's his fault! Miranda, he's a
selfish, greedy bastard. [knocking on door] [dialing] It was his fault
that he left me. MIRANDA: Yes, I need the police
and paramedics at 2114 Skylar suite 600. My niece poisoned my
husband with Dilan-- Dilantenol. Yes, he's unconscious. I don't know. Uh, he's still breathing,
but I can't wake him up. [sobs] MIRANDA: Yes, she's outside
the door in the hallway. She's got a knife. Yes, yes, she tried
to kill me too. Hurry, please. Why did you leave me? I stayed with you when
everybody left you. I stayed! [sobs] They're coming. CHRISTIE: I stayed. Christie! Dad, you left me all alone. [moans and sobs] I have no idea how this works. [chuckles] I'll show you. You'll learn, it's easy. RICHARD: OK. [typing on keyboard] [scoffs] Now you try. Ooh, I screwed that up. It's OK, daddy. I know exactly what you mean. You're the best. [kiss] You're the only one
that stands by me. What would I do without you? [soft music] RAY: Haley, your mother and
I are very proud of you. I can't wait to
see what this is. I can't believe you
guys got me this. MIRANDA: [chuckles] We promised we would if
you kept your grades up. Happy birthday, sweetie. Thanks, mom. It fits. Thanks, mom. Thank, dad. Happy birthday sweet heart. Love you sweet heart. I love you guys. Happy birthday. [chuckles] [theme music]
