previously on "six degrees"...
so how is roy holding up?
Cold feet?
No,he's been completely calm about the whole thing.
You guys are so perfect!
You're not really gonna marry her,are you?
Of course I am. I love her.
what do you keep in that box?
Things that are special to me.
I have a key.
Who has the other one?
My brother eric.
how well do you know mae?
There's some people looking for her.
You don't want any part of that.
What's going on?
Just be honest with me?
I don't want to talk about it.
halloween...
you gotta love it.
It's a day when even the average clark kent can say to hell with his boring identity and become a man of steel.
Everybody loves halloween.
It's a day when you can bring out the kid in you...
or the sex kitten.
The hardest part is deciding just who you wanna be.
But one thing about this city- whether it's halloween or not,some people are always wearing a mask.
you said you wanted to know.
Where'd you get this?
Look,you drive around,you meet all sorts of people,they tell you all sorts of things.
Yeah,but what'd they tell you about mae?
Somebody's looking for her.
And I hear that there's a nice payday involved for whoever finds her.
You mean like a bounty?
Wait. Who exactly is looking for her?
Look,I don't know,all right? I didn't ask.
I didn't want to get involved.
There's a rumor that it might be some guys out of denver or ksas city or something.
Come on,damian. You're gonna have to do better than that.
You're missing the point,carlos.
These are some bad people she's mixed up with.
I don't want to have anything to do with them.
Neither do you.
Hey,I found you a tiara.
I wanna be the king.
Yeah.
Next year,if you gain 200 pounds.
What are you gonna be?
I don't know.
What do you think?
It's fun to dress up.
Yeah. You get to be someone else,at least for a day.
You could be a superhero.
You think I could pull it off?
Try it on.
Yeah. Wait here for me.
Okay.
Hey!Hey,you can't come in here.
Get out of here. Are you..
hey,it's okay. It's me.
Eric!Oh,my god!
Hey,kid.
Hey.
You look good.
I am.
Oh,hold on just a- is that the little girl?
Yeah.
Who would've thought? My little sister playing mary poppins.
What are you doing here? What-you didn't even call me.
I know.
Is everything okay?
Look,I don't want you to panic. It's all gonna be okay,but... they found me.
When?
Two nights ago in clearwater.
Well,how did you know it was them?
A car parked in front of the place I was crashing at had colorado plates.
I didn't even stop. I just walked by.
So they're not following you.
I don't know. I don't think so.
But we can't take the chance.
We gotta go.
This was always the plan- to get as far away as fast as we could.
I know. I just-I didn't expect it to be today.
Well,it is.
All right. Well,how quick can you get packed?
I don't have much.
And the box?
I'll get it.
I,uh...
I gotta quit my job.
No,you don'T.
No one needs to know anything.
Just get packed and meet me at the grant hotel on 38th street.
What do you think,two hours?
All right.
It's gonna be okay.
Okay.
All right.
Hey,danny.
Could you run this photo through the national database for me?
Missing person?
Uh,missing person,runaway,or it could be a fugitive. I don't know.
All I know is she might have started in denver or kansas city.
Okay. That's something. I'll check open cases,widen the search from there.
Thanks.

Drama Name Season X Episode X
Yep,that's everything.
Roy is officially gone.
Not a trace,not even a single hair is left of that lying,cheating son of a bitch.
Armani?
Honey,you should really give some of these things to the salvation army.
I did.
I donated virtually everything.
But all these choice things,the things he really loved- the cds,the rugby shirts,his professor tweed...
those get trashed.
I would burn them if I had time,but I don'T. So... on with my life.
I think we should book you a spa day.
I'm fine.
I'm sure that you will be,but it just- it takes time to get over these things.
Yeah,I don't have time.
I don't have time for self-pity,and I don't have time for a seaweed wrap.
I've got this huge client-sponsored halloween party tonight,and I've got to get to work.
You should come.
To work?
To the party.
It'll be fun.
Two single girls out on the town.
I haven't been a single girl in 12 years.
It'll be fun. It's halloween.
No,I don't- I don't have a costume.
Dig in your closet. I'm sure you'll find something.
Uh...
please.
Today is really gonna suck for me,and everyone at work is just gonna be looking at me with that- that-that...
yeah. That look.
Yeah,I hate that look.
And by tonight,it would just be really nice to have a friend there.
OK.I think I can ask claire to take eliza trick-or-treating.
Thanks.
Okay.
Will you come on?
You are shooting the cormorant campaign. You have to go.
You're right.
I owe them everything.
Will you come on?
It's halloween. It's the best holiday of the entire year.
It's not a holiday. It's a pagan ritual.
All right,you're really gonna make me go dressed as one of casanova's courtesans without a casanova?
Come on.
That's a sassy image- the lonely courtesan.
Oh.
Ooh.
I promised max that I would hit the streets with him.
Fine.
Why don't we do both?
I will go with you. I will keep you company.
It'll be so much fun. And then we can go to the party together afterwards. Please.
You want to go trick-or-treating with a middle-aged parental unit and his prepubescent charge?
Mm-hmm.
I like those little bite-sized candies.
I'm sure you do.
I do.
I...
yes.
Kind of want this to be A... parent-child situation.
Mm. -You know?
He's just starting to see me as a father and not a miscreant.
No,it's okay. I get it,actually.
I think it's really great that you're doing it.
Thank you.
Mm-hmm.
You can come meet me after.
Please.
Please!
You're so...
all right,fine.
But you cannot fault me for trying.
Where are you going?
I have to go get some more stuff for my costume.
Mm-hmm.
All right.
Are you feeling okay?
I have a little bit of a headache.
Please tell me you have some aspirin somewhere.
I do in the,uh,kitchen cabinet.
That's a fine place for it.
All right.
See you later. Have fun.
boo.
Boo!
Hey.
Oh,boy.
You're a real-life fairy princess.
ah!Who's the fairest one of all?
What are you supposed to be,mommy?
Well,I was going for the morton salt girl,but I think I look ridiculous,so...
are you ready?
Actually,sweetie,I have been invited to a grown-up party,and my friend really needs me to be there.
So I was wondering if you would mind too terribly if claire took you to trick-or-treat with mandy?
And you could have a sleepover.
Yay!
I'd love to,but I have- I have plans tonight.
Maybe I could drop you off first.
Yeah!
Okay,why don't you get your stuff? -Okay.
It's a family... um- first trick-or-treater.
I'll get it,and you keep working on your costume.
Carlos.
You were born mary alice edwards,colorado springs,august 29th,1984,but you go by mae.
I know who you are.
whatever you think you know about me,you're wrong.
Really?
So you're not wanted for questioning as a material witness in a murder?
What,are you interrogating me now?
I'm trying to help you.
There are people after you,very dangerous people.
Carlos- what?
Just-just tell me the truth for once.
Why do you even care?
Because I do,okay?
Look,there's something between us.
I feel it.
And I know you're in trouble.
So just let me help you.
You're a public defender,carlos.
The kind of trouble I'm in- it's a whole different league.
I have a friend.
I- I met him in law school.
Great.
No,listen to me. He works at the justice department.
They deal with the fbi all the time. i can call him after
no!Do not do that!
Just can you- can you please- can you find something else to do with your time?
Because you asking questions- you're gonna cause more trouble for me than you can possibly imagine.
And that thing between us...
I'm sorry,I don't- I don't feel it.
Right.
Okay.
Have a nice life.
whitney.
Oh,my god. You look so gorgeous today.
I'm fine.
I,uh,ordered your favorite sandwich from balthazar.
I'm okay,melanie.
Of course.
I know. that's what I told everyone.
but I mean,you must be wrecked.
I don't know how you got out of bed.
You're so amazing.
Did the conference call with cormorant start?
It's about to. They're holding for you.
Okay,let's go.
She was supposed to be on her honeymoon this week.
I can't believe she'd even show up for work.
It's one thing to get cheated on,but to have it all over the papers?
it's "kill me please" awful.
"Hit me with a bus" awful.
"Kick me in the ribs" awful!
Whitney?
Oh,my god.
I am so sorry.
oh,please.
It's no big deal.
Trust me.
Okay?
The way I look at it,I dodged a bullet.
So...
can we talk about the guest list now,or do we need to dish about k-fed and britney first?
You're gonna have so much fun.
Can't you come trick-or-treating with me and mandy?
I'm sorry,sweetie,but like I explained,I have to be somewhere.
Besides,you'll have more fun with your friends than with your nanny.
You're not really my nanny.
Oh.
You're like my sister.
All right. Your mom's gonna pick you up in the morning,okay?
Will you help me sort my candy when I get home?
Promise?
Yeah,of course.
Can I get a hug?
Mm.
Okay.
You have fun,okay?
Okay,bye.
Bye.
what do you think,pumpkin?
Ooh,that is smokin'.
Yes,and I was thinking you could be my big,strong merman.
Mm...
nope.
Nuh-unh.
There's nothing manly about some dude in fins.
I'm sorry,baby. It's just not sexy.
Anyway,I gotta work.
Oh,come on.
You've been working nonstop.
Besides,you always work the holidays.
Drivers work holidays.
I mean,holidays is like money in the bank.
Hmm. It's kind of a waste,don't you think?
Me swimming in the sea all by myself.
I just hate to be wasteful.
Sorry.
What about this?
Ah...
you'd make a great clown.
Yes. Great idea. I don't think so.
Come on. It'd be hilarious.
Yeah,I know. I like clowns. Clowns are some of my best friends.
But I'm not really a costume kind of guy. You know what I mean?
Okay.
Uh... but maybe I could go for something a little more...
subtle. Oh,yes. This is me.
This is me!
where've you put my peg leg?
Where've you hidden my peg leg?
Where on the boat- oh,my god.
What's the meaning of this headlessness?
what? -Nothing.
I'm the most embarrassing father in the world,right?
You just seem happy.
Ah. Oh. Hmm.
Let's see what we can do about that.
what's your dad dressed as?
Himself with one eye.
Think parrot.
your dad's cool.
Yeah.
Next victim.
trick or treat. Trick or treat.
Hi. Happy halloween.
Hey,you go to cranley,right?
Yeah.
Yeah,so does my daughter.
All right,guys.
thank you. -Have fun.
Dad.
Let's go.
Yes. Let's go,dad. Let's go.
Aah!
oh,look.
A giant...
fruit...
getable.
Fruigetable...
fruigetable... you all right?
Yeah,no,I'm all right. I'm just a little...
I don't know what I am.
I'm okay.
You don't look okay.
Uh...
maybe I'm coming down with A...
I don't want to ruin your halloween. Maybe you should go ahead with your,uh,friends.
No. No,I want to stay with you.
Huh?
I want to stay with you.
Okay.
Let's just...
you know what?
I'm gonna... oh,my god.
Dad,are you all right?
Yeah,I'm okay. You know what?
Uh...
just,uh,press 9-1-1 on that.
Okay,max?
I'm okay.
Oh,my god.
Just tell them where we are.
You know what street we're on?
Yeah.
Hello?
I need an ambulance.
Yeah,there's something wrong with my dad.
your dad was sweating?
Yeah,a lot.
Yeah,but,no,I feel better,though,now.
I'm doing much better,okay?
Let's give your dad a little air.
Why?
I'm okay,max.
You have a little too much halloween fun?
What do you mean?
What are you on?
Speed?
Acid?P.C.P.X?
Um,I'm not on anything.
Your heart's pounding,your pupils are the size of bowling balls and you're fondling my stethoscope.
Uh,well... I'm,uh...
what did you take today?
I took a couple of aspirins this morning.
Look,pal,best thing for you to do is go home.
Can one of these other parents take your kid?
Uh,yeah.
Hey,max!
Come here for a second.
Come here,come here,come here.
I,uh,they're very nice.
I have a little touch of the flu or something.
I'm sorry. So I think you should,uh,um.
why don't you go ahead with clay and his dad,and,uh,I will call you later,okay?
Okay.
Hey,listen.
You are- you are like...
a gift to me.
You're like a magnificent gift.
When I look at you,I see my eyes in your eyes,and your hands are like my hands,and I am so proud of you.
Sometimes I am actually exploding with pride.
Um,okay,dad.
Now you're embarrassing me.
Okay.
I'll see you later.
All right. I'll see you later. Okay.
Good,good,good,good.
Thank you.
I'm on ecstasy.
whitney crane.
Hey,it's laura.
Hey,you.
I think I finally found my costume.
So...
what are you wearing?
I got,uh,jennifer beals in "flashdance.
" I used to be kind of a hot dancer.
Why don't you go as a sexy librarian?
There really are no sexy librarians.
It's only in porn.
How are you holding up?
You still got your game face on?
I did until a delivery guy...
delivered a big wedding present.
Oh,god,that's awful.
It's from roy's uncle in france.
He's got an estate in reims.
Probably a case of champagne.
Oh...
roy and I spent a week there about three years ago.
I don't think we wore clothes the whole time. We just chilled,you know?
Ate and drank and slept.
Why don't you send that back?
Yeah,I guess.
It's really good stuff,though.
you know,maybe I'll just give it to the assistants,and I'll save a bottle for us for after the party.
How about that?
That sounds great.
If I could just find something to wear...
happy halloween.
Yeah,you,too.
So why no mask?
I mean,somebody's bound to recognize you,mae.
It's all right.
Special agent ian williams with the fbi.
You got the wrong person,mister.
I don't think so.
Have you seen your brother?
Did you know they found him?
I know a lot about you,mae,and about eric.
The fbi has been investigating benjin logan for quite some time.
Scary guy.
But I don't have to tell you that,do I?
That's why you're running.
And after what your brother did to his brother...
that was self-defense.
Okay.
Now we're getting somewhere.
Help us and we can help you,both of you.
I don't need help from anybody.
Bring eric in.
His life depends on it.
Come on,mae.
How much longer do you think the two of you can last out here on your own?
Eric will show up looking for you.
He doesn't have anyone else.
And when he does,do yourselves a favor.
Call me.
Where the hell have you been?
The fbi is looking for you.
What?
How do you know?
Because they found me.
And they know what you did,eric.
Well,I didn't have a choice. He-he was never gonna let you go. I-I did it-
I know,for me. I know,I know. And it is all my fault. I know.
Because if I would have just listened to you,I would never would have been involved with the logans.
We wouldn't be looking over our shoulder for the rest of our lives.
Well,we're together now.
All right?That's what's important.
There's something I want you to do.
What?
I want you to turn yourself in.
Are you crazy?
No. They said they can help us.
You'll make a deal.
And spend the rest of my life in jail?
No,eric,listen.
They're- mae,it's not an option.
Look,just because some random guy with a badge tells you he can help us doesn't mean jack.
You know the logans better than anyone.
Their connections?
They can find me wherever I am.
And what about you?Who's gonna protect you if I turn myself in?
I don't want to live like this anymore,eric.
Listen to me.
We need to stick to the plan.
Run.
Eric,I have friends here,people that really care about me.
And I care about them.
I have a life here.
And what are these friends of yours gonna think when they find out who you really are?
You think this lads gonna let you live in her house with her daughter when she finds out who you are?
Who i was.
Mae,trust me.
We've made it on our own this far.
Haven't we?
okay.
Okay. I-I gotta go get the box. I didn't have time to get it before.
Let's go then.
No. I'm sure the fbi is staking the house out.
All right.
We'll meet in front of penn station in an hour.
Mae,we're gonna be okay.
Okay.
I'm coming!I'm coming!
Hi!How are you?
You roofied me.
Wait,what?
What are you talking about?
The aspirin that's supposed to be aspirin...
is not aspirin.
Oh,my god.
Who puts their ecstasy tablets in aspirin bottles?
Raise your hand.
My ex-roommate did. I am so sorry
your ex-roommate?- Yeah,no,she was a crazy partier. Listen,I'm gonna get you some orange juice.
I'm gonna get you through this. We're gonna get through this? -Yes. I will get you through this.
You're gonna help me through this? -Yes!
I had to lie to my son tonight.
I had to lie to him while we were trick-or-treating.
That was after he had to call an ambulance for me because I thought I was having some kind of event.
I had to lie,which I promised him I would never do,while I was tripping on ecstasy.
Can you help me through that?
Okay,I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
This is why we can't see each other,you see?
What? -No. Why?
Because 25 year olds put their hallucinogens in their analgesic bottles.
But it was an accident!
I don't care!I can't afford another accident,anya.
It wasn't even mine!
It doesn't matter if it's yours or your friend's or your phantom roommate or the dealer's or the model'S.
I can't- I can't do it anymore.
What kind of person do you think I am?
Someone I shouldn't be going out with.
when you come down from this,and you feel like you want to talk to me- you know,you,like,actually really want to talk to me,you can just call me.
let me guess.
Uh...
betty boop.
Flapper. Roaring '20s.
Ah,that's nice.
Yeah.
Oh,man. My girlfriend loves halloween.
Matter of fact,she's going to the exact same party I'm taking you to.
I'm sure she'd rather I was there with her,but you know how that goes.
A brother's gotta work.
Yeah,I'm actually trying to work,too,if you don't mind.
I'm sorry.
I'm just a little overwhelmed.
I understand.
I'll just drive.
Hi.
What I said before- I'm sorry- carlos.
Listen to me...
please.
There's someone after me.
There is.
I thought if I could pretend to be someone else that it might go away,but it didn'T.
Why didn't you just tell me?
Because I'm not exactly proud of who I was,and the last thing I wanted to do was bring it down on anyone else- not you,not laura,eliza.
But now,uh,I don't know what to do.
I just-I don't- my brother's in trouble.
And this sounds crazy,but the fbi came to me.
Yeah,I know.
What?
I told you I had a friend.
I called h... to protect you.
Have you ever even...
um...
when I was eliza's age,my mom took off.
And then when my dad died,my brother eric took care of me.
And he did the best he could,you know?But I was 15 and...
I got kind of lost.
I thought I was in love with this guy,and eric tried to warn me about him and about his family,that they were into some stuff.
What kind of stuff?
Drugs.
Meth,mostly.
They built a business,covered three states.
And john- that was his name?
Yeah...
john.
He didn't just own that.
He basically thought he owned me.
He wouldn't let me out of his sight,and when I tried to leave...
a few times...
he got very...
angry,you could say.
My brother eric got me out of there,and we've been running ever since.
And...
I just want to stop.
I- I just want to stop.
I don't know how.
thank you.
There you are!
You look fantastic.
What are you?
I'm me 15 years ago at a misfits concert.
it's the last time I can remember being totally single.
It's great!
This is a phenomenal party.
Thanks.
How are you doing?You holding up?
Yeah,I'm holding up,really.
But I have about a thousand things I have to go check on. Are you gonna be okay?
Yeah. I-I can mingle.
I can do that. Okay.
But don't forget about me,okay?
I won'T.I won'T.
Okay.
Hey,you gotta get more drinks on these,okay?
Steven!
Hi.
What...
whitney,hey.
Yeah.
You look quite beautiful.
Thank you. And you're a james bond villain?
I'm a man with no depth perception.
Okay,listen,there's a lot of clients here I think you should meet,so maybe we could take a loop- I'd love to schmooze,but I'm looking for someone.
Okay. -All right. -Okay.
i love you blue hawaii.
thank you. Thank you very much.
laura.
Elvis...
presley.
Right.
What's your real name?
Elvis aaron presley.
Uh,I salute your commitment to halloween,but I was just wondering what your coworkers call you when you walk into work in the morning...
assuming that you have a job.
kenny lopatnick.
It's nice to meet you,kenny.
hey.
Well,hey. What are you doing here?
Trying to score some aspirin.
This is my element.
In the recent past,I would have been here before you.
I would have brought my own supplies. I would have carried on into the morning.
How are you feeling?
Painfully stable.
I'm just sorry. I'm just so.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Listen to me.
Those pills would have found me if they were buried underneath your floorboard.
Okay,um...
I'm a 46-year-old alcoholic and drug addict with almost as many demons as there are in this particularenue.
Just being here among them is a huge temptation. You know what I mean?
Mm-hmm.
Which is frightening.
Well,then why did you come?
There's one temptation here I can't resist.
I'm gonna kiss you now. How would that be?
All right.
watch out.
For what?
This.
Oh,god.
It's easy.
hey!
I was looking for you.
You're missing all the fun.
I was downstairs dancing with richard nixon.
He was surprisingly nimble.
What?
That guy's outfit.
He's wearing roy's jacket.
Oh,my god.
Are you okay?
Yeah,yeah. I'm just gonna go check on something,okay?
O- okay.
What you gotta do is get a certain...
well,uh...
yeah,man,let me catch up with you,all right?
sorry,I didn't know you wanted to leave so early.
Hey,you-you okay?
Yeah,I'm fine.
no,I'm not fine.
I just ran out of that club because of a tweed jacket.
A stupid tweed jacket.
I never liked it in the first place,but it's got sentimental value because he had it on when I first met him.
hey,hey,hey,hey,hey.
Here,take a tissue.
Oh,god.
I just wanted to get through today.
Save my breakdown until tomorrow.
That is so me.
I scheduled my own breakdown.
Who does that?
Just keep it together.
Always in control.
You said you had a girlfriend?
Yeah.
Yeah,sure do.
You faithful to her?
Are you kidding me?
I love her to death. I treat her like gold.
You should be with her tonight.
I know,but...
you know,I'm on the clock,so...
tell you what. Park the car.
Bill the next four hours to ralston P.R
You go in and find her.
Here...
happy halloween.
What...
thank you.
Thank you.
There you are. You got the box?
Yeah,I got it.
Come on,let's go.
You all right?
Yeah,I'm- eric edwards,fbi.
Move him back. you're under arrest.
whoa,whoa,whoa!Easy come on,eric.
Be careful with him. Don't hurt him.
Get him moving. T him moving.
What'd you do?
I feel like this is our best chance. Please,please trust me.
How could you do this to me?
Don't hurt him!
You did the right thing.
Then why do I feel so sick to my stomach?
Look,you couldn't go with him,okay?
And-and you couldn't let him run alone.
At least this way you know he's protected from the logans,and if you both cooperate- you're sure they're gonna cut him a deal?
Yes.
After what you told me,I'm positive he has a reasonable claim for self-defense.
I'm gonna stay on top of this,okay?
I promise.
Okay.
Look,I'm here for you...
whatever you need.
oh!You made it!
yeah!
They almost weren't gonna let me in because I didn't have a costume.
Really?
But get this- huh?
Yeah. Yeah. "Men in black.
" Okay.
But what happened to your client?
Mm,get this. She is paying me to hang with my girl.
are you sure you don't mind staying?
I love a good pagan ritual.
You know that about me.
you are home
How was the party?
