NICK; My father worked as a lawyer for the richest family in New York,
until his plane went down in Long Island Sound.
He left me his biggest client, the Darlings.
Tripp, the empire builder.
You're gonna have to start trusting me sometime.
NICK; Letitia, the sophisticated socialite.
Your father was my great Iove.
NICK; Brian, the man of God.
I Iied to my wife and daughters Iast night.
I toId them that you were an orphan.
I want you and that boy out of this house
untiI I figure out what to do.
NICK; Patrick, the principled politician.
You have to get your house in order.
NICK; Karen, the professional divorc¨Ĥe.
Using the chapeI for your fourth marriage
wouId just be insuIting to the rest of the marrying pubIic.
Karen, do not caII me on the home phone number.
I'II aIways Iove you, too.
NICK; And Jeremy and Juliet...
-Oh, my God! -...the well-behaved twins.
I've been thinking IateIy, and I shouId get a job, right?
NICK; My father was working for someone else.
You shouId come work for me, finish what your father started.
TRIPP; You getting anything out of that
Better Manhattan Conference so far, Nick?
NICK; It's interesting. A bunch of billionaires talk about
how much real estate they own in the city.
TRIPP; Well, it's pretty small potatoes, really.
Reason people come here is for The Game.
NICK; The Game?
TRIPP; The Game. A high-stakes poker game.
-DEALER: CaII. -It's been going on for about 40 years,
20 million just to get in.
Simon Elder is gonna be there this year.
First time.
WeII, I guess now's the time
to take this baby to the next IeveI.
-ReaIIy? -TRIPP: Yeah.
And from what I heard, it was Dutch got him invited into The Game.
WouId've been one of the Iast things your dad did.
I guess Mr. EIder didn't bring that up when he had dinner with you, did he?
No, he never mentioned it.
He had time to accuse me of murdering my best friend,
but he didn't get around to teIIing you
what he and my best friend were actuaIIy up to.
-I think it was more than poker. -I do, too.
WeII, The Game is not for another two days,
so Iet us get back to the party.
KAREN; Hi, Nick.
-Hey, Karen. -HeIIo.
-WeII, thank you for not avoiding me. -I haven't been avoiding you.
Oh, don't fib. You've been a IittIe distant since ItaIy.
WeII, it hasn't been intentionaI.
Okay.
-Hey, baby. -Hi.
Freddy.
-Did you ask about the thing? -Oh, right. Yes. We need a favor.
Freddy and I have been so overwheImed with wedding pIanning
that we need you to go down to city haII
and get our marriage Iicense.
You know, do some of that Iawyer magic.
You have to sign the Iicense in person, Karen.
-They haven't changed that Iaw yet? -No, not yet.
Not even for reguIar customers?
Seems Iike there ought to be some sort of reward, or fringe benefit,
-or something, right? -Sorry.
You want a cupcake?
I aIready had three at MagnoIia with JuIiet, but okay.
-That where you two were? -Yeah.
She taIked about NataIie Kimpton for hours.
-What a sIut. -Hey. Don't use that word.
What time you want me at your office tomorrow? 6:00? 5:00?
-9:00's fine. -Banker's hours. Okay.
-Are you ready for this? -Ready? I am drooIing.
I'm gonna be a member of the working cIass.
-I'm gonna make Dad proud. -See you then.
When Patrick was introduced to GeraId Ford...
Just before he took over the presidency.
...he had some words of advice for the man.
I Iove this story. Patrick!
TeII Larry what you said to Gerry Ford.
You teII him, Dad.
That was your proud moment, not mine.
He said, ''Restore dignity to the White House, sir.''
He was eight years oId.
Dignity.
Yowza!
(PANTING )
That was a goId-medaI performance.
(CHUCKLING )
Thanks.
What's the matter, baby?
Sometimes it... Sometimes it's just kind of depressing.
The onIy thing intimate that ever takes pIace between us
happens in hoteI rooms and Iimousines, never in pubIic.
Doing what we just did in pubIic is iIIegaI in most states.
I hate being a secret.
I know.
Hey, you want to go back to Vermont? We can, you know, take a weekend.
Going to Vermont is just another giant secret.
-I'm married and running for Senate. -I can't heIp how I feeI, Pat.
We've never even stood in the street and kissed.
Just kissed.
-See? -See? This isn't so bad.
Did you ever think maybe this is why I don't want to do it? Hmm?
Because it's hard to feeI free with you,
and then not want to feeI that way aII the time.
God! You are gonna be President someday.
-Oh, yeah. -You aIways know just what to say.
MAN: Hey, Patrick!
-Take a Iook over here, sweetie! Yeah! -PATRICK: Get down!
MAN: Oh, yeah! Thanks a Iot, sucker!
Son of a bitch! Get over here!
What are you gonna do, Nick?
That photo gets out, Dad's gonna crucify me.
WeII, with aII due respect, Pat,
you shouId have thought about that before making a spectacIe.
She's tired of being a secret, okay?
Then she shouId go out with somebody who isn't married,
and who isn't running for the Senate, and who isn't a DarIing.
That doesn't make it right for peopIe
to staIk their feIIow human beings with cameras.
I mean, if everything everybody did was captured on fiIm,
none of us wouId Iook Iike very good peopIe, right?
Look, Pat, I'm sure some creep is gonna try and seII us the negatives
or the memory card for a miIIion doIIars any day now.
Any day is too Iate.
Detective Larrabee on two.
Okay. Look, we're just gonna have to sit back and wait.
Hang on a second. HeIIo?
I'm just caIIing to Iet you know that the NTSB Report
on your dad's pIane crash came in today.
-What did it say? -That the poIice?
It's cIean. No evidence of fouI pIay. No tampering whatsoever.
Run of the mill engine failure.
-Okay. -Is it about the photos?
No!
I don't know what to say, Mr. George. I'm sorry your father's gone.
I know how badIy you wanted to hoId someone responsibIe
for this horribIe accident, but that's just what it was, an accident.
And accidents happen.
Yeah. Yeah, they do. Thank you.
You want some coffee?
No.
A bageI? A bear cIaw?
I'm okay, thank you.
-Anything? -No. I just...
I guess I'm trying to figure out what I'm supposed to do,
now that I don't have to find out who kiIIed my dad.
Maybe you shouId just start missing him?
(DOOR OPENS )
Sorry I'm Iate. It's 9:00 somewhere, dude.
Time for work.
Okay, DarIing Luxury HoteIs.
Your famiIy owns 23 properties in the U.S.
and 32 throughout Europe and Asia.
HoteI rooms are onIy good for one thing, Nick.
SmeIIs Iike troubIe.
(NICK READING )
It wouId kiII me to be that cIose to the IimeIight and not be a part of it.
I'm sorry. I pass.
DarIing Farms.
I Iike the crazy boots, but, come on, dude.
Cows, they're scary.
DarIing PharmaceuticaIs.
Let's skip this one.
DarIing DeveIopments. 23 office towers,
62 apartment buiIdings, 1 0,000 residents.
Can I be, Iike, the janitor or something? Like the fix-it guy?
WeII, what exactIy can you fix?
Okay. That's a good point.
Jeremy, I'II teII you what.
Why don't we start with what you're good at?
WeII, I've aIways had this uncanny abiIity to just chiII.
You know, Iike, I can be sitting in a chair, and it's 2:00.
Next thing I know, boom! 4:00.
So zoning out, that's your speciaI skiII?
-I can drive a car. -That's not a speciaI skiII.
Oh, it is the way I drive.
Oh, God. I always forget how long this takes.
(RAPPIN G) Bureaucracy Just another name for mediocrity
Baby, you're gonna need to stop that.
CLERK: Karen DarIing.
That's me!
-Hey, it's you! How nice to see you! -Nice to see you again, Miss DarIing.
-Is this number three? Four? -Four.
But he's number one in my heart.
Of course he is. Uh-oh.
''Uh-oh.''
-Is there a probIem? -UnfortunateIy, yes.
PoIyandry's iIIegaI in New York State.
-What did you just caII me? -Freddy, reIax.
What did you just caII him?
Miss DarIing, you're stiII married.
-To whom? -Your Iast husband, Sebastian FIeet.
No, we were divorced, Iike, three years ago.
He never signed the papers.
You're gonna need to take care of this.
-CLERK: PauI CotIey! -Baby?
No. CIark, teII Patrick the drive-through window is cIosed.
Ma'am, if you couId just get in the car. PIease? It's important.
CARMELITA: So, what do you want?
Here.
-What are these? -Pictures.
You hired that photographer?
I've tried and tried to make it cIear to Patrick
just how much he stands to Iose
by maintaining this aIIiance, but to no avaiI. None.
So I find myseIf compeIIed to reIy upon your good judgment
and the support of
this sadIy necessary object Iesson.
How Iong do you think it wiII be before Paddy's opponent sends
someone after the two of you to document this embarrassment?
How Iong, honestIy, do you think this can endure?
I've thought the same thing.
(SIGHS )
There's a cashier's check in this enveIope
for considerabIy more money than you wiII require to reIocate.
Anywhere. And beIieve me, no one knows better than I do
that money is coId comfort in the absence of Iove.
So it is with the utmost compassion
and goodwiII
that I appeaI to whatever genuine feeIings
you have for my son, and impIore you to Iet him go.
This Iiaison is impossibIe.
Mr. DarIing. Tripp?
Tripp.
I am a Iiving, breathing testament to the fact that nothing,
and I mean nothing, is impossibIe.
I'm gonna do you the favor of not teIIing Patrick
we had this conversation,
because he wouId be terribIy hurt.
And that's the Iast thing I want.
I see where Patrick gets his good Iooks.
So, I'd manage the whoIe structure?
No, you'd be working here.
-Parking cars. -Right.
You start at the bottom, common-man styIe. I forgot about that.
And you'II be working for this man.
Lou Mack, I want you to meet Jeremy DarIing.
-HeIIo, Lou. I recognize you. -I was your doorman for eight years.
You were! I didn't recognize you without the epauIets.
Lou is my boss. I Iove it. FuII circIe.
Does everyone get a cIipboard?
(PHONE RINGING )
-Nick George. -Nick, it's Simon Elder.
You know, your dad got me into this crazy poker game tomorrow.
Yeah, Tripp toId me.
PersonaIIy, I think this whoIe thing is distastefuI.
A bunch of puffed-up peacocks, gambIing away peopIe's homes
and offices as if Iife were no more than...
-NICK: A card game? -Yeah. Right.
But sometimes a IittIe distastefuI behavior is necessary.
NICK: Your point being?
WeII, there's a reason Dutch made this happen for me.
We had a pIan.
You know, when Robert Moses redesigned New York City
for the automobiIe, a Iot of good came from his work.
-And a Iot of bad. -I agree.
He made this whoIe city much more unIivabIe.
I envision a new Manhattan, with cIeaner air,
better pubIic transportation.
And your dad,
your dad was going to heIp make my vision a reaIity.
I see.
So, what do you want from me?
At some point, the stakes for the game tomorrow wiII get so high
that cash wiII no Ionger be enough.
ReaI estate wiII become the new currency.
And what I want from you is very simpIe.
Convince Tripp to throw DarIing PIaza into the pot.
What part does an 80-year-oId, 1 5-story buiIding pIay
-in the revitaIization of New York City? -Don't worry about that, Nick.
You just get that piece of Iand in the pot,
and I wiII win that hand.
What do you say?
I don't think so.
I'm not sure Tripp wouId go for it,
and, frankIy, I don't know if you're teIIing me the truth.
-About? -About my father.
That's fair.
I heard you got the cIean NTSB report on your dad's pIane crash.
You shouId know that report was doctored
Iong before the poIice ever got it.
-ReaIIy? -It's a fake.
A fake?
Now, if you reaIIy want to find out who kiIIed your dad, you do this for me.
And I'II get the reaI report for you. Just think about it, okay?
Okay?
AII right, Tobey Iooked at me, he's freaking out.
I said, ''Man, you have no choice. You have to be Spidey.''
I taught him this action.
(MAKES SQUIRTING NOISE)
The rest is movie history.
I got this one.

Hey, JuIes, you wiII not beIieve the girI whose car I'm parking.
-Be carefuI. -No need. I'm a vehicuIar ninja.
I'm taIking about your heart. You are on the rebound.
I'm just parking her car.
Do you know where your binocuIars are?
Little Brian needs them for polo.
( CRASHIN G)
Jeremy? Jeremy?
Nick, I need you to come with me.
WeII, Karen, if I go with you, then your ex is gonna want
-to have his Iawyer come with him... -Never bring a Iawyer
-if you don't have to. -ExactIy. Just go get divorced.
No, but, Nick, I can't face him aIone.
-You know Sebastian. -No, Karen, I don't.
Hey, Daisy, where are the rest of the reaI estate fiIes?
Which ones? DarIing PIaza, DarIing FinanciaI Center, the hoteIs?
AII of them. I need aII of them.
(PHONE RINGING )
-AII right, so, Sebastian... -Yes. Sebastian FIeet.
WorId-renowned anthropoIogist?
People's Sexiest Man AIive?
In the anthropoIogy category, yes.
-He's got a pretty incredibIe heinie. -I know.
Thank you for that, Daisy.
He's got a hoId on me, Nick.
It's magnetic. It's eIectric. It's sexuaI.
-I get it, Karen. -I wiII eat him aIive.
You're getting married in three months!
-I know! -So exercise a IittIe seIf-controI.
What if I can't?
What if I cheat on Freddy, and he... And, oh, God... And he dumps me?
WeII, that sex tape you made
-with his caddy didn't seem to faze him. -Oh, I know!
But, Sebastian and I, we were married.
-He activates my yoni. -Karen, I'm not coming.
Fine. Okay. Yeah, don't.
But Ietting me risk ruining my marriage to Freddy
sure makes it seem Iike you want me free for you,
and that's seIfish.
Thanks, Nick.
PATRICK: If Nick doesn't find these pictures, I'm screwed.
Come on, Nick, Nick, Nick...
(PHONE RIN GIN G)
Nick's not answering.
-Patrick, you need to reIax. -ReIax?
The story couId break any second. My whoIe Iife couId go up in fIames.
You want me to reIax?
The story's not gonna break.
How couId you be so sure?
-Are you insane? -I want what's best for you.
Oh, so you wanna buy off the woman that I Iove, behind my back?
You do not know yourseIf weII enough to manage...
I don't need to know myseIf, Dad! I know you!
When are you gonna get it through your thick skuII
that you can't controI me anymore?
Patrick, when your UncIe Kenneth was taken from us,
your destiny was seaIed.
It is my deepest, most heartfeIt beIief
that a moment is coming in history when you, Patrick, you,
wiII pIay an important roIe in the unfoIding mystery
of human freedom.
That's what poIitics is.
That's what you need to be a part of. Freedom.
Not Iicense.
And you shouId know that she promised me
that she wouId not teII you about this.
I'm gIad that she did.
No, Patrick. You don't understand.
She Iied to me.
She Iies. She can't be trusted.
''She''? You're the one that's not to be trusted! You know what? We're done!
-Patrick. -You're sick, Dad. You are unweII.
I am tired of it aII. The money, the advice, the support.
AII of it. We are done.
I mean it.
JEREMY: What do you guys think?
I think you're screwed, man.
Man, I knew I shouId have Iearned how to fix stuff!
Whoa, whoa. Hey, hey! Hey, hey, hey! Don't worry, man.
-Hey... -Don't worry, man.
At Ieast they can't fire you, right?
I got it.
MAN: Hey, Jeremy! Where you going, dude?
I know how to fix it!
Sorry about the wait. I just wanted to get it washed for you.
Oh, that's so sweet. No tip. Maybe next time.
How did you get it fixed in 30 minutes?
Bought her a new car, changed the pIates.
When's the Iunch break?
-No, no. -This one?
-No, no. I hate that. -I don't know. Mustard?
Oh, Nick. CouId I have a word with you?
No, no. I Iike red, but we're not doing a monsoon wedding.
I need you to keep an eye on Tripp at the aII-important game.
Okay.
He gets very competitive with that crowd.
He'd never admit it, but he does.
If someone puts him up to a dare, he'II take it.
He wiII not waIk away from a bet.
So, I need you to make sure that he... WeII, he doesn't make a fooI of himseIf.
Has he done that before?
-See this finger? -Yes.
Upon this finger do you see the most vaIuabIe emeraId
in the worId?
He Iost it Iast year at The Game.
I'II keep an eye on him.
(THANKING IN FRENCH)
-You got the deeds? -Right here.
It's gonna be a reaI good game.
What did you round up for me to bet with?
Foundry's bringing haIf of HarIem.
MostIy just what you taIked about, the buiIding on Fifth
and a few smaIIer hoteIs. DarIing PIaza. Listen now, Tripp,
-I know that since we're... -Hang on. Hang on.
DarIing PIaza?
No. No, no, no.
DarIing PIaza was our first home in Manhattan.
It was a gift. Letitia's father gave it to me.
Patrick and Karen were born there.
I wouIdn't seII it, Iet aIone risk it on a game of cards.
Tripp, the fact that it's that important to you
couId be usefuI as a bIuff.
Nick, what's going on? I said DarIing PIaza's off the tabIe.
It's off the tabIe. I don't understand. What's got into you?

We'll sit down for a while And let the evening...

-You were showering? -No.
Can you sign these, pIease?
They put these sweet IittIe stickies on here,
so you know just where to put your John Han... Hancock.
You Iook beautifuI. As aIways.
Sign, pIease? Just sign these.
I'm not sure what went wrong here, Karen.
I signed those the first time around.
-You did? -Mmm-hmm.
I gave them to that, what, guy from the NetherIands.
NetherIands? Oh, you mean Dutch?
You signed them, and you gave them to Dutch?
Yeah, that guy. No probIem. I'II sign them again.
Do you want to come in, have a drink?
Warm you a IittIe cocoa tea from Peru. It's quite reIaxing.
See, I see what you're doing here.
I'm not doing anything, Karen,
besides asking my wife to come in and make herseIf comfortabIe.
Come in.
Have some tea.
-Oh, you Iost your toweI. -No. It tastes better naked.

We'll raise our ready hands

I guess I shouId sign these now, huh?
Hey. Oh, you're finaIIy marrying Nick George, huh?
Yeah, Nick. Wait. No. No.
No, no, no, no. Not Nick.
What are you taIking about? His name's aII over this thing.
Yeah, because Nick's my Iawyer. I'm marrying Freddy. He's a goIfer.
Oh...
So, you're gonna do it aII over again to somebody eIse.
Do what?
Nothing. You just be happy.
Sebastian, we were happy.
-Why didn't it work out with us? -Oh, come on. I was never around.
I was aIways out somewhere, eating psychogenic pIants
or doing rituaI circumcisions.
Right. That's right.
Even when I was here, I was never Nick.
That was part of it.
There you go.
It was nice being married to you.
And it was nice being married to you, too, Karen.
It reaIIy was.

There's no reason to bet the farm, Tripp.
You're out of Iine, Nick.
Maybe, but I can't advise staking your most profitabIe buiIding.
I toId you not even to bring the damn deed to the boat.

-WouId you just trust me, Tripp? -Nick...
Trust me.
Just trust me.
Come on, DarIing. Pony up.

-TeII me you didn't. -I didn't.
-I didn't! -You are unbeIievabIe.
He wasn't going to sign otherwise. I had to.
How do you expect to make a fresh start with Freddy
if you're stiII sIeeping
-with your ex-husband? -He wasn't my ex-husband

-We were technicaIIy stiII married. -Karen, your behavior...
Is what it is. Fine.
I wouIdn't have had to go over there and behave at aII if it wasn't for you.
And what does that mean?
-Dutch never fiIed the papers. -And how is that my fauIt?
Why, I'm sure when he was supposed to be fiIing them, he was in some hoteI,
doing to you what Sebastian just did to me.
Don't be disgusting.
-I'm not the one who's disgusting. -Look, I know what you think of me.
But don't you think it kiIIs me to see you making

-Putting three peopIe in your marriage. -Mother, I divorced Sebastian.

-And a watch? He can't even teII time. -He asked for it, you jerk!
He onIy wanted a Patek PhiIippe 'cause that's what you wear.
I've been just trying to make him feeI Iike part of the famiIy.
I Iove hanging out with him,
but you're the one he's aIways taIking about.
I don't have time for this.
(SCOFFING ) You don't have time for him!
WeII, Iook who's back in her brand new ride.
Oh, this is a sign.
HeIIo. WeIcome back.
(THANKING IN SPANISH)
Can I taIk to you for a second?
-Sure. -Okay.
I'm just gonna come right out and say this.
This isn't your car.
-I just drove it from home. -Oh, I know,
but that is... That is your car.
-Then whose car is this? -This is a rentaI.
I was gonna switch it after I got the other one fixed,
but, you know, it feIt wrong to do, in the interest of fuII discIosure,
'cause I'm in this phase in my Iife
where I'm kind of seeking consequences, and...
Do you want to taIk to my boss?
No, it's okay.
You toId the truth. That's enough.
As Iong as you fix my car today.
-No probIem. Thank you. -Okay.
Can I buy you dinner sometime?
That's sweet.
But you're not my type. Sorry.
Why did you say you rented it?
Why didn't you just teII her you bought the car?
I didn't want her to know.
Know what? That you're Jeremy DarIing?
That's the uItimate cIoser, man.
Yeah, I know.
I thought I toId you to keep an eye on my husband.
-Look, things got a IittIe out of hand. -A IittIe?
You Iet him gambIe away the one buiIding of ours
that actuaIIy meant something to me.
Your father never wouId have done that.
But, Letitia, I'm not my father. And that's, you know, a good thing.
-He was far from perfect. -I know that.
But he protected me. He protected aII of us from
Tripp's whims.
It was a comfort, and I miss it. That's aII.
-I'm sorry. -No, no. You're right to push back.
You know,
your father and I, it's funny, we aIways feIt
that we were sacrificing so much.
But I guess everybody was, knowingIy or unknowingIy.
We were aII having something stoIen from us.
You know, I reaIIy don't know who's in controI anymore, or what.
For Tripp to have gambIed away that buiIding...
WeII, it mustn't mean as much to him as it once did.
And that's not your fauIt. It's mine.
(SIGHS )
NICK: I came as soon as I couId. Hope I didn't keep you waiting.
Are you gonna miss this pIace?
I am, actuaIIy. A IittIe bit.
I shouIdn't, you know? Sitting BuII said,
''The Iove of possession is a disease with them.''
With us. And it is. He was right.
So I try to see that my ownership of Iand and property
is part of a Iarger, creative project,
and I have tried not to
be attached.
It's done.
How's Jeremy doing?
Good. He's working for DarIing Parking.
You know why I asked you to waIk him around the company, don't you?
I assume to get him a job.
No.
I wanted you to see aII the aspects of the company
that you are going to run one day.
Now, it's not anything we have to taIk about right now. I just
wanted you to know that, that's what my wish is.
So,
when are you gonna meet with Simon EIder
and get that NTSB report?
Tonight.
Tonight?
Thank you, Tripp,
for Ietting this pIace go.
DarIing PIaza was our first home in Manhattan.
I wouIdn't seII it, Iet aIone risk it on a game of cards.
Tripp, the fact that it's so important to you
couId be usefuI as a bIuff.
Nick, what's going on? I said DarIing PIaza's off the tabIe.
It's off the tabIe. I don't understand. What's got into you?
(SIGHS )
Simon EIder toId me
that if I couId get this property in The Game,
that he wouId get me the reaI NTSB report on Dad's pIane.
He said the originaI one had been doctored.
-And you beIieve him? -I do.
I'm not sure why, but I do.
But why DarIing PIaza?
You know, he didn't reaIIy say. Just that it's part of some pIan.
How do we know that he isn't somehow the one responsibIe
for doctoring the NTSB report?
How do we know he wasn't impIicated in the crash?
He may be,
but if I can get him to trust me, I'II have a way in.
And having someone with inside access to Simon EIder
wouId not be bad for DarIing Enterprises,
especiaIIy if he thinks that you and I are at odds with one another.
You and me, at odds?
-Okay. -You in?
Let's do it.
I Iove you, Nicky.
I want to find out who kiIIed Dutch just as much as you do, maybe more.
I toId you I wouId do everything it took.
-There you go. -BRIAN JR.: Thanks, Katherine.
Oh, and can I have some vaniIIa ice cream?
KATHERINE: Okay.
Things are gonna be changing around here, buddy.
-Like what? -Like Iess time with Aunt JuIiet,
more time with me.
-ReaIIy? -Yeah.
But don't Iook so happy about it.
No more watches, no more fancy cIothes.
Just some good, oId-fashioned, father-son time.
What happens during good, oId-fashioned, father-son time?
I don't know yet. I never had any.
You couId teach me backgammon.
Whoa, whoa. Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Let me show you something. See,
you cut a hoIe in the center of the stack,
otherwise you onIy get syrup on the top pancake.
It's a speciaI syrup distribution method
I deveIoped in the seminary.
Oh.
-It's cooI, huh? -Yeah. Thanks, Dad.
We'II start with backgammon tomorrow.
Okay.
SIMON: Thanks for your heIp on the poker game.
-You're weIcome. -Your father wouId be proud.
I'II take your word for that.
This is what Dutch and I were working on,
a whoIe new vision for the city.
Those gIass buiIdings? Transparent soIar paneIs.
I'm gIad you're now a part of it.
Me, too.
WeII, you didn't come down here just to see my dream for Manhattan.
I'd Iike to see that report, yes.
No probIem.
HeIIo, Mr. George.
You had the deaIer?
There are two reports.
The correct NTSB report
which states your dad's crash was indeed caused
by fouI pIay, and the maintenance report
that says onIy one mechanic worked on the pIane.
It appears a man named Norman ExIey was responsibIe.
You've heard of him?
Yeah.
And I guess he Iied to me.
Go to the poIice, Nick.
There's pIenty of evidence for them to Iook into.
-Thank you, Simon. -No probIem. Thank you.
We'II definiteIy be in touch.
Your next appointment is here.
Send him in.
-Simon, gIad we can finaIIy do this. -It's been a Iong time coming.
-I'II say. -PIease.
LETITIA: Thank you. See you tomorrow. Bye.
KAREN: Oh, wait, wait, wait. Where are they going?
Those were sampIes, dear.
We're not keeping them for three months.
Mommy. Mommy.
Freddy and I are moving the wedding up.
-ReaIIy? -Yeah. WeII, why wait?
The time, she is a-ripe.
AII right. Come on, baby.
Are you sure about this after everything that's happened?
Yeah. Yeah, you were right.
I don't want three peopIe in my marriage.
I want to move forward now.
I have to.
You can't deny this is pretty strong evidence.
It is.
It proves ExIey tampered with the pIane.
He kiIIed my father.
You're right.
I'm just sorry we can't arrest him and ask him why.
Why not?
Norman ExIey was found dead in his apartment this morning.
MAN; ( SIN GIN G) In the air the questions hang
Will we get to do something
Who we gonna end up being
How we gonna end up feeling
What you gonna spend your free life on?
