- 0:09Put the bag on the table.
- 0:12>> Why?
- 0:13>> My grandmother's diamonds, the whole
- 0:15set. $3.2 million.
- 0:17The appraiser opened that case at 4:00,
- 0:19empty.
- 0:23One name on today's vault log, yours.
- 0:261:40, your code, and the camera has you
- 0:29going in.
- 0:32>> I told you at breakfast.
- 0:35I went down for the 2019 appraisal file
- 0:37for my audit at the quarterly meeting. I
- 0:40filed the request with the foundation
- 0:41office on Monday.
- 0:46On appraisal day, the security tech
- 0:48always comes in first to check the case
- 0:50sensors.
- 0:51So, where's his name?
- 0:53>> Kenny came on Tuesday, sweetheart.
- 0:56Not today.
- 1:03>> This came at 6:00.
- 1:04No name.
- 1:05>> Dante. She's your wife. I'm sure there's
- 1:08an explanation.
- 1:17Are you asking me if I stole them?
- 1:26That's my answer.
- 1:39Search the bag, Dante. You won't find
- 1:40your wife in it.
- 1:43>> Julia.
- 1:44>> Clause nine. You signed it.
- 1:47>> Boss,
- 1:48the off-site backup on the vault. Give
- 1:50me 48 hours and I'll have the footage.
- 1:53>> You put in the second cameras, Dante?
- 1:57>> That photo says he picks up tonight.
- 1:59Once those stones leave the city,
- 2:00they're gone.
- 2:03Sal,
- 2:05search it.
- 2:12>> Go ahead, Sal. It's not on you.
- 2:18How's the wrist, Tony?
- 2:19>> Better, ma'am. Thank you.
- 2:31>> What is that?
- 2:39That's Vincent's watch.
- 2:41Dante, that's your father's watch.
- 2:43>> That watch has been in my desk drawer
- 2:45for 30 years.
- 2:49>> Boss,
- 2:51it's running.
- 2:57Repair ticket, watch shop on 47th
- 3:00Street, dated today.
- 3:04Year one, let it run, signed J.
- 3:09Sunday's your anniversary, boss.
- 3:13>> 47th Street.
- 3:15>> Well,
- 3:16that explains the photo. It doesn't
- 3:18explain the vault.
- 3:32Maybe it's upstairs, in her closet.
- 3:38Should I take off my shoes, too, Marisa?
- 3:40You've waited a whole year for tonight.
- 3:42Enjoy it.
- 3:44I'm protecting this family.
- 3:47Then I guess I'm the only one protecting
- 3:48it from you.
- 3:49>> Enough, Julia.
- 4:04What are you doing?
- 4:06>> The earrings, our first Christmas.
- 4:12The bracelet, your birthday.
- 4:17And this one you put on me yourself
- 4:19the night you finally kissed me.
- 4:24Everything you might think I took,
- 4:26you can have [music] it back.
- 4:27>> Julia,
- 4:28stop.
- 4:30You don't have to do
- 4:31>> two of your men search your wife
- 4:34in her own front hall.
- 4:40The car,
- 4:41our wedding present.
- 4:46This one was always yours.
- 4:48I just wanted it to run again.
- 4:55My lawyer will send the separation
- 4:56papers.
- 4:58>> You're not leaving tonight.
- 5:01>> Are you going to stop me?
- 5:14I never wanted your diamonds, Dante.
- 5:16I wanted a husband who'd believe me
- 5:18before the proof came in,
- 5:20even for 48 hours.
- 5:35>> She'll cool off by morning.
- 5:40>> Go home, Marissa. Now.
- 5:47Still warm.
- 6:05Ms. Hayes,
- 6:06I need 10 minutes.
- 6:11>> You're parked in a bus stop. If you need
- 6:1310 minutes, call my office and make an
- 6:14appointment.
- 6:17>> Do you know who I am?
- 6:20>> I do.
- 6:21That's why I'm surprised nobody ever
- 6:22showed you how a calendar works.
- 6:33Somebody is moving money out of your
- 6:35family's foundation
- 6:36through a string of companies that don't
- 6:38look connected.
- 6:39One of them is called Harbor Line.
- 6:44And whoever's doing it will make sure
- 6:46the blame lands on whoever found it.
- 6:51>> And who found it?
- 6:53>> Me.
- 6:58>> My grandfather wrote a rule into the
- 7:00trust.
- 7:02Nobody runs it unless they're married.
- 7:05My aunt's people are already counting
- 7:06votes.
- 7:08>> So you need a wife.
- 7:11>> Marry me
- 7:12and you get every ledger in that trust.
- 7:15Your own money,
- 7:16your own work.
- 7:20>> I don't marry men so I can check their
- 7:21books.
- 7:26>> Then get to know me first.
- 7:29>> [snorts]
- 7:35>> Clause nine.
- 7:36If either one of us stops respecting the
- 7:38other, the other one can walk. No
- 7:41explanation ordered.
- 7:44>> Done.
- 7:50>> Nervous, Mr. Caruso?
- 7:53>> No.
- 7:54>> You're about to break my finger.
- 7:56>> [laughter]
- 8:02>> Hold still. This is an inspection.
- 8:10Why doesn't it run?
- 8:17>> I was 11.
- 8:19My mother emptied the safe in the middle
- 8:21of the night and left.
- 8:24My father stopped that watch the minute
- 8:25she walked out.
- 8:28He told me, "People always take
- 8:30something when they leave. Go count the
- 8:32safe."
- 8:36>> Not everybody takes something.
- 8:44Put a second set of cameras on the
- 8:45vault.
- 8:46Use a company outside the family.
- 8:48Don't tell your aunt.
- 8:50And tell me when it's done.
- 8:53>> Sal will handle it.
- 9:04>> [panting and gasps]
- 9:06>> Sal Greco has an off-site backup on the
- 9:08vault.
- 9:10>> Off-site?
- 9:11You told me there was one system, one.
- 9:15>> One is all I knew about.
- 9:16>> [sighs and gasps]
- 9:18>> Then I'm on tape.
- 9:19I'm on tape walking in there.
- 9:23>> Then by the time anyone watches it,
- 9:25you won't be in New York.
- 9:28Cash.
- 9:29A train to Philadelphia tonight. And
- 9:31don't call your mother.
- 9:37>> What about the stones?
- 9:39>> They're exactly where they've been since
- 9:412:00.
- 9:45Home.
- 9:52>> Is the card in your name, ma'am?
- 9:55>> It's the only thing in my wallet that
- 9:56is.
- 10:19>> Julia Hayes, you used to live upstairs.
- 10:22Is it still empty?
- 10:23>> Still empty, still ugly.
- 10:26>> I'll take it.
- 10:39>> You walked out of a house on Staten
- 10:40Island last night.
- 10:42And you're doing homework?
- 10:45>> I don't leave a job half done.
- 10:51>> [sighs]
- 11:02>> This is Julia Hayes. My final audit of
- 11:04the Caruso Trust is in your inbox. After
- 11:07my first report, Harbor Line switched
- 11:09registered agents. That's why your trail
- 11:11went cold.
- 11:13But the new agent isn't new.
- 11:15It's in the foundation's own 2019 file,
- 11:17hired by Marisa.
- 11:20Last page.
- 11:33>> Mrs. Caruso,
- 11:35we're just here to keep you safe.
- 11:38>> Tell Mr. Caruso, if he wants me safe, he
- 11:41can start by leaving me alone.
- 11:46>> Pull them back.
- 11:49>> Want me to send a different car?
- 11:56>> No.
- 12:01>> 48 hours, boss. The off-site footage
- 12:03just came in.
- 12:092:09.
- 12:10Kenny Platt with his toolbox.
- 12:142:16, he's out.
- 12:17His swipe's off the log and on our main
- 12:19system, those 7 minutes are gone.
- 12:22He cut himself out.
- 12:24>> Marissa said Kenny came on Tuesday.
- 12:27Who put in his work order? The
- 12:29foundation office.
- 12:31Marissa's office.
- 12:34Find Kenny.
- 12:38>> Kenny's apartment is cleaned out.
- 12:41Phone's off. His mother says he left
- 12:43Thursday night.
- 12:45And the guy holding Kenny's markers says
- 12:4860 grand got paid off a week ago Friday.
- 12:51One wire.
- 12:52>> From who?
- 12:53>> Harbor Line Holdings. Delaware.
- 13:06She told me the blame would land on
- 13:07whoever found it and she's the one who
- 13:09blame on whoever
- 13:10>> found it.
- 13:11And she's the one who told me to put in
- 13:13the second set of cameras.
- 13:15A thief doesn't ask you for more
- 13:17cameras.
- 13:22One year today.
- 13:26>> You've reached Julia. Leave a message.
- 13:31>> Julia, I was wrong.
- 13:34And I'm going to make sure everybody
- 13:35knows it, not just you.
- 13:38You don't have to call back.
- 13:46>> Harbor Line rents a storage unit in Red
- 13:48Ridge. Want me to take a couple of guys
- 13:50and open it up?
- 13:52>> No.
- 13:53Give the footage, the wire, and her
- 13:56report to Ridgeway.
- 13:58Tell them this time I'm not asking to
- 14:00keep it in the family.
- 14:13>> This family has had a painful month.
- 14:15So, let's keep it simple.
- 14:18I'll keep running the trust until
- 14:19Dante's home life is settled.
- 14:27>> Before anybody votes, you should know
- 14:29what I did.
- 14:32I accused my wife of stealing.
- 14:36I had her searched in our front hall, in
- 14:38front of my own men.
- 14:41I let a photograph talk louder than she
- 14:43did.
- 14:45Julia stole nothing.
- 14:47I was wrong.
- 14:48>> Dante, come on. That's between you and
- 14:51your wife.
- 14:52>> It stopped being private when I did it
- 14:54in front of the people who work for this
- 14:55family.
- 15:042:09 Kenny Platt walks into the vault.
- 15:09Harbor Line paid off his gambling debt,
- 15:1260 grand.
- 15:15And my wife's report 14 months ago, page
- 15:18three, she circled Harbor Line.
- 15:26The night after your wife left, she sent
- 15:28us her final audit. It traced Harbor
- 15:31Line to one director of the foundation.
- 15:35You, Marisa.
- 15:40We sent it to the DA with your footage.
- 15:42Last Tuesday, the DA's office opened
- 15:45Harbor Line storage unit in Red Hook
- 15:46with a warrant.
- 15:48Your grandmother's set was there.
- 15:50Every piece. And a second set of books.
- 15:54$11 million skimmed over nine years.
- 15:58Money meant for the women's shelter and
- 16:00the children's ward.
- 16:05Harbor Line also paid a private
- 16:06investigator.
- 16:08His reports were in that unit.
- 16:10He knew your wife would be on 47th
- 16:11Street that Thursday.
- 16:14And on Monday, you saw her vault
- 16:16request.
- 16:18So, you booked the appraiser and Kenny
- 16:20for the same afternoon.
- 16:24>> A gambler got greedy, Dante.
- 16:27Bring him in. Let him look me in the
- 16:29eye.
- 16:30>> Wherever he is, the money came out of
- 16:33your company.
- 16:34And that night, you told me Kenny came
- 16:36on Tuesday.
- 16:40>> Your father,
- 16:42I held this family together for 30 years
- 16:45while your father drank and you bloodied
- 16:47your hands on the docks. She was never
- 16:50one of us.
- 16:53>> You're right.
- 16:54She was the only one of us watching the
- 16:56books.
- 16:58>> She's gone, Dante.
- 16:59They always leave.
- 17:04>> When my mother left, she took everything
- 17:06in the safe.
- 17:08When my wife left,
- 17:10she left everything on the table.
- 17:14I should have known the difference that
- 17:15night.
- 17:23As of tonight,
- 17:25Marisa is out of this trust.
- 17:27And nobody in this family calls the DA
- 17:29for her.
- 17:33>> You'd hand your own blood to a
- 17:34prosecutor?
- 17:36>> I handed my wife to two bodyguards. This
- 17:39is the least I owe her.
- 17:43>> Marisa, it's time.
- 17:45>> [sighs]
- 17:52>> That leaves the vote.
- 17:54Who runs the trust?
- 17:55>> Bring in somebody from outside. Not me.
- 17:58Nobody named Caruso.
- 18:12>> Mrs. Caruso, I didn't want a lawyer
- 18:14bringing you this.
- 18:23>> Yesterday he stood up in front of the
- 18:25whole family and said he was wrong.
- 18:2922 years I worked for his father.
- 18:33I never once heard a Caruso say those
- 18:35words.
- 18:37And he gave up the seat.
- 18:39Told him to bring in an outsider.
- 18:44>> He married me for that seat.
- 18:47>> I know.
- 18:49>> [snorts]
- 18:53>> I was more afraid of trusting you than
- 18:55of losing you.
- 18:57I got the price wrong.
- 19:06>> Want me to tell him anything?
- 19:09>> Tell him I read it.
- 19:15>> Tony says the wrist is all healed. He
- 19:17wanted you to know.
- 19:19>> Tell him to wear the brace when he lifts
- 19:21things. He never does.
- 19:335 minutes.
- 19:36You can say it from there.
- 19:41They froze everything. The house, the
- 19:42foundation.
- 19:44The DA wants me. Dante listens to you.
- 19:48Tell him to keep this inside the family.
- 19:51>> You told my husband I was a thief.
- 19:55>> I was protecting my interests.
- 19:58>> You broke up my marriage.
- 20:00>> It already had cracks in it.
- 20:02>> It did.
- 20:03And you stuck your fingers in and
- 20:04pulled.
- 20:09>> If you don't help me, you will never set
- 20:11foot in that house again.
- 20:17>> When I walked out of that house, I
- 20:19didn't take a thing.
- 20:21All I ever wanted in it was respect.
- 20:24You think a locked door scares me?
- 20:31Good night, Marisa. We're closed.
- 20:41>> The guy watching Marisa so she doesn't
- 20:43run says she went to the bookshop
- 20:44tonight.
- 20:46Get two guys over to
- 20:52>> What did Julia do?
- 20:54>> Showed her the door.
- 21:02>> It's been 3 months. She sent the
- 21:04settlement back all but a third.
- 21:08For 1 year of auditing your trust.
- 21:12>> That third she earned.
- 21:13Don't send her anything else.
- 21:19>> Boss. We found Kenny. He's in
- 21:22Philadelphia.
- 21:26He'll talk to the DA.
- 21:28But he's terrified of the people who
- 21:29moved Marisa's money. And he doesn't
- 21:31trust cops. One condition.
- 21:34>> Which is?
- 21:36>> You. In person.
- 21:38Your word that nobody touches him. And
- 21:41you hand him to the DA yourself.
- 21:47The DA's people can take him in August.
- 21:50At our pier in Red Hook.
- 21:53I can take a few guys and do it.
- 21:58>> He asked for my word, Sal. Not yours.
- 22:02I'm the one who brought the DA into
- 22:03this. I'll walk him through it myself.
- 22:06>> Boss.
- 22:07>> I'm going.
- 22:13>> Mrs. Caruso.
- 22:15I'm sorry to call you.
- 22:16He's been hurt.
- 22:18>> How bad?
- 22:19>> His shoulder.
- 22:20He's awake. St. Agnes.
- 22:23>> What happened?
- 22:24>> Red Hook.
- 22:26He was handing Kenny to the D.A.
- 22:28Marissa's people came at the car.
- 22:31He got in front of Kenny.
- 22:33>> [sighs and gasps]
- 22:35>> Was anyone else hurt?
- 22:36>> Tony.
- 22:37Cuts and bruises. He's okay.
- 22:40Kenny doesn't have a scratch.
- 22:42The D.A.'s got him.
- 22:46>> I have to go.
- 22:53>> [snorts]
- 22:56>> Sal said you were hurt.
- 22:58>> It's nothing.
- 23:01>> That bandage is the size of a pizza box.
- 23:04>> I've had worse.
- 23:06>> That's not as comforting as you think it
- 23:07is.
- 23:10You do exactly what the doctor says.
- 23:12>> Okay.
- 23:14>> Since when do you say okay that fast?
- 23:19>> Since I figured out that when I argue
- 23:20with you, I'm usually the one who's
- 23:22wrong.
- 23:26>> I didn't come because I forgive you.
- 23:28>> I know.
- 23:31I miss you.
- 23:33>> Missing me doesn't change what happened.
- 23:36>> No.
- 23:37It doesn't.
- 23:39>> You made me a stranger in my own front
- 23:41hall.
- 23:42>> Yes.
- 23:45>> You looked at me like I was going to rob
- 23:47you?
- 23:49>> Yes.
- 23:52>> You believed a photograph over the woman
- 23:53standing right in front of you.
- 23:57>> Yes.
- 24:01>> I don't know if I can ever trust you
- 24:03again.
- 24:05>> Then don't promise me you will.
- 24:08Just let me spend the rest of my life
- 24:10proving your trust matters more than my
- 24:12pride.
- 24:14>> [snorts]
- 24:28>> Will I see you again?
- 24:32>> I don't know.
- 24:36>> Thank you for not lying to me.
- 24:43>> You drove over a bridge to bring me
- 24:45coffee?
- 24:46>> Yes.
- 24:47>> That's an expensive delivery.
- 24:51>> I was hoping you'd let me sit down for a
- 24:52minute.
- 25:00>> It's been 6 months.
- 25:02>> 6 months and 4 days.
- 25:04>> How's the shoulder?
- 25:05>> Stiff when it rains. Tony's back at
- 25:07work. He wears the brace now.
- 25:11>> Good.
- 25:12>> And Kenny testified in front of the
- 25:14grand jury last week.
- 25:16Marissa's been indicted.
- 25:25It's not a gift.
- 25:32Every right the pre-nup gave me over
- 25:33your money, your work, your home,
- 25:36signed away.
- 25:38If you ever come back,
- 25:40that's your choice.
- 25:43It has nothing to do with the trust
- 25:44anymore.
- 25:49I used to think if I loved you,
- 25:52my job was to make sure you could never
- 25:54leave.
- 25:57Loving you doesn't give me the right to
- 25:58keep you.
- 26:02>> And if I never come back?
- 26:06>> Then I hope you have a life that makes
- 26:07you happy.
- 26:13>> I miss you, too.
- 26:14That doesn't mean I'm ready.
- 26:16>> I know.
- 26:21>> [snorts]
- 26:22>> Thursday.
- 26:23Dinner.
- 26:24And none of your men at the next table.
- 26:28>> Deal.
- 26:32First snow.
- 26:35>> White roses, not jewelry.
- 26:38>> From the flower shop on the corner.
- 26:40Same as the ones you carried at our
- 26:41wedding.
- 26:47>> The night I left, I was 11 blocks down
- 26:49the road before I remembered I'd given
- 26:51you back the car.
- 26:54>> I sat in my study with that ring till
- 26:56the sun came up.
- 26:59>> You almost lost me.
- 27:02>> I know.
- 27:07>> I love you.
- 27:08But I will never be a woman who stays
- 27:10because she's scared to leave.
- 27:13>> I don't want you to be.
- 27:16>> If we do this again, it has to be
- 27:17different.
- 27:19>> It will be.
- 27:20Not because I promise,
- 27:22because I'll choose it again every day.
- 27:40>> One year since I walked out of your
- 27:41house.
- 27:42>> And two since [music] we stood here.
- 27:48I kept it.
- 27:52Every night I looked at it and asked
- 27:53myself how I could be so sure about
- 27:56everything else
- 27:57and not about the one person who
- 27:59mattered most.
- 28:02I don't deserve another [music] chance
- 28:03just because I want one.
- 28:07>> No.
- 28:08You don't.
- 28:11But you worked for it.
- 28:13>> Marry me again.
