Thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule.
Thank you, Dave. It's always a pleasure.

I have to say, I'm really impressed with the fact
that you have no negative ads in this campaign.

Dr. Floyd Beasley,

He'll be taking your calls at 555-0198,

This is a self-help book?
Yes.
It's for coping with addictions

Super.
Let's see what our first caller has to say.
Mary from Covington, you're on the air.
Yep, hi.
I'm curious, shouldn't sex addiction
be called orgasm addiction?
Well, no, not necessarily, Mary,
because just like there's many different kinds of drugs,
there's many different kinds of sex.
Well, I understand that, doctor,
but different drugs do different things.

You're on the air. You claim to be a sex addict?
Yeah, I got to have sex several times a day,
preferably with as many partners as possible.

is a very important reality in today's society.

to fabricated afflictions.

And you know what?
It's working.
No, look, if they wanted to screw you,
they would have taken this information public by now.
This person knew your wife was cheating on you
and they found a discreet way to tell you and prove it to you.
So it definitely counts as cheating
even though it's with...
I don't know, the same gender?
What the hell do I know?
But isn't two women every man's fantasy?
Maybe it's not cheating if they invite you to join them.
And life's supposed to be about the journey,
not the destination, right?
That'd be a hell of a ride.
Yeah, well, see, that's...
Kind of the thing.
Wait. You're kidding.
I mean, I was when I said that.
When I was 18,
I couldn't get that thought out of my head, and now,
if i...
if I don't go through with this,
does that make me gutless?
Unadventurous?
I think it just makes you human.
[alarm blares]
[panting]
[gasps]
[panting]
Sorry I'm late, dude.
Traffic was totally un-mellow.
Have a seat.
Check this out.
Wow.
This looks great.
Look, whit.
I talked to Kevin this morning
about the sunday graveyard shift.
Oh, really?
It's not gonna happen.
What?
Why?
These things take time.
Time?
I'm 27.
You got your first break when you were 21.
That puts me, like, six years behind schedule.
I got lucky.
If Terry hadn't retired, who knows when...
but you're never gonna retire.
Maybe you should think about another station,
maybe even another market.
You're young. You're single. You could go anywhere.
What exactly did you tell Kevin anyway?
Now, wait a minute, whit.
You submarined me, didn't you?
What?
Whack!
Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome the Sean voight band.

Hey.
What the hell was that?
That was for you.
Come on, give it up for the Sean voight band.
[engine turns over]
[engine rumbling]
I don't want to end up like Bob Lentz.
The guy leads a respectable life
then gets condemned by one scathing rumor.
Yeah, it's a terrible thing.
He denied it.
No one believed him.
So whether or not he did anything wrong
becomes irrelevant.
Someone knows about you, Susan.
I never followed you.
Someone tipped me off.
Not possible.
Someone knows about you.
So a rumor will start eventually,
and it'll spread quickly because it's a sizzler.
It'll likely destroy my credibility
just like Bob Lentz.
So if I'm destined
to be convicted of a crime I didn't commit,
why not go ahead and commit the crime?
When?
You decide.
[chuckles]
Sunday night
out at the house.
Oh, you hate that place.
Yeah, I really want you to feel comfortable.
Thank you.
What the hell did you do with $5,000 in cash?
[sighs]
It was for the guys
in the band for the show on friday.
I don't even understand what difference does it make?
I mean, considering how much money's in the account.
Sean, I thought you were getting paid to play.
There never even was a promoter, was there?
No.
I put the show on for a girl.
Melody?
Yeah.
Well...
Did it work?
[chuckles softly]
Yeah, it did.
Well, she's a nice young lady.
Great set of home wreckers.

Hello?
- David, it's melody. - Hey.
Hey.
I'm thinking about taking a vacation,
maybe Europe.
Oh, that's amazing.
So much history, so many different cultures.
Mm-hmm.
I'm just dying to go to Paris,
Madrid, Rome...
you better send me a postcard.
You get enough mail as it is.
[chuckles]
I think we've seen the last of the notes.
Really?
Why do you say that?
I got the message.
I'm gonna do whatever it takes to save my marriage.
Life's about the journey, right?
[stammers] Yeah.
Um...
So what about you?
I mean, will that make you happy?
There's no "i" in "team."
Right.
But there are two in "integrity."
[laughs]
You are a mess.
[chuckles]
Yeah, you don't know the half of it.
[sighs]
I majored in French;
I have never been to France.
I love animals; I have no pets.
I sell pharmaceuticals,
and I think our society is over-medicated.
Hey, melody.
And I divorced my husband
for having an affair, and now i...
you know what? Um...
I should go home,
which, of course, isn't really home.
It's another friggin' motel room,
because I own a house but I don't live in it.
- Melody, hey, take it easy. - Sorry.
- No. - Sorry.
It's okay.
Yeah.
You're amongst friends.
Melody, would you like some more ice cream?
[Melody laughs]
- Aren't you the best? - I'm sorry.

[panting]
Get out.
What are you gonna do, shock me?
Why are you following me?
I'm not following you.
I'm just checking up on you.
[panting]
I get paid to check up on you, melody.
[engine turns over] - What?
[engine revs and tires squeal]
How do you know my name?
[gasps]
Ugh!
I think the only thing that Bob was really guilty of
was not fully appreciating the gifts
that life had bestowed on him.
He leaves a great deal behind:
A loving wife,
four wonderful children.
They are his legacy.
And as a tribute to his memory,
I would encourage all of you to reflect on your legacy.
What would you like to leave behind?
How would you like to be remembered?
What will you pass on
to future generations?
[stark bagpipe music]

So we're still on for tonight?
Yeah.
Are you all right with that?
Yeah, sure.
9:00, right?
Perfect.
Do I need to bring anything?
Just yourself.
- Hi. - Hi, sweetie.
How are you? - I'm okay.
Sorry I didn't answer the phone last night.
I was beat.
That's okay.
What's in the bag?
A proposal.
[groans]
Oh, no. [chuckles]
Bad choice of words.
Wait. What is it?
Sean.
Just open it.
It's not what you think, I promise.
[chuckles]
Okay.
Oh.
Thanks.
[clears throat]
Uh...
Look inside that one.
Oh, my god.
But these are for tomorrow.
Yes, they are.
That way, if you say yes,
you won't have time to change your mind.
I can't.
I mean, I can't accept this.
It's too much.
Sure you can.
No strings attached.
I gave you both tickets 'cause I want you to go
even if you don't want to go with me.
[chuckles]
Oh, um...
Can I have an hour to think about it?
Okay.
Can I buy you dinner? - No.
[both laugh] Go away.
All right.
I'll see you in an hour.
Okay.
[laughs lightly]
[sighs]

Whit?
Hey, whit.
Anybody home?
[knocks]
I talked to Kevin this morning
about the sunday graveyard shift.
Oh, really?
It's not gonna happen.
What?
Why?
I don't know.
Don't you think it's odd that he knows about
all the places I've always wanted to go?
Well, maybe he likes you.
It sounds like he listens to you too.
But it's just... I don't remember
telling him about those things.
Well, maybe I did.
Do you like him?
Yes.
I mean, he's cute.
He's creative.
He's persistent.
Then what's the problem?
I don't trust him.
Trust
comes with time.
My advice?
Go.
If you are holding out for something better,
it might not ever happen.
And if it doesn't,
you're gonna kick yourself
for not having done this when you had the chance.
On January, 26, 1985,
Bob snakeskin was killed when his car veered off the road
and plummeted into a 400-foot ravine.
His reaction time was slowed
due to the fact that he was eating a pizza.
He was trying to save a little time.
Now he's dead.
Friends, don't let friends drive hungry.
[cell phone rings]
Hello.
Yes.
Yes, I'll go
with you.
Excellent.
[chuckles]
Look, it shouldn't take me too long to pack.
We are gonna have the best time.
I know.
It's gonna be amazing.
[car door slams and echoes in phone]
Hello.
Melody?
Hello?
[car door slams and echoes in phone]
You still there?
[gasps]
Melody?
Don't move.
Damn it.
I forgot to give you this.
Just stop it, Sean.
What?
How long have you been spying on me?
Spying? [chuckles]
[stammers] I came in the wrong entrance.
And I saw you over here, and I wanted to give you this.
Guess I could have waited till tomorrow.
There is no tomorrow, Sean.
What?
Oh, no. You said... you just said yes.
No, what I said was no, Sean,
two weeks ago.
Listen to me.
Will you wait... will you just listen to me?
I'm not a stalker,
I promise.
I followed you once,
to the ice cream place.
You know what? And I saw you with David Dailey.
Is that what this is about for you: David Dailey?
There's nothing going on between us, Sean.
And you know what?
It's none of your business anyway.
Don't tell me it's none of my business, okay?
He's been after you from the day you met,
and he's not the Saint you think he is.
What are you...
[stammers and chuckles]
Just stay away from me, Sean.
Just listen to me one second.
Please, leave me alone!
Don't touch me.
You're making a big mistake, melody.
[engine turns over]
Here's to Louisville.
[engine revs]
[tires squeal]
Oh, no. Come on.
You have got to be kidding me.
Hi, Kevin. It's David Dailey.
Listen, I'm calling about whit Harrington.
I think you should give the kid a chance.
[phone ringing]
[whispering] Come on. Come on, come on, come on.

Nice.

Thud! [glass shatters]
Clang!
[rain pattering]
David.
You're early.
I wanted to surprise you.
Mission accomplished.
[thunder rumbling]
911 emergency response.
Yes, hi.
I'd like to report a person who might be in danger.
His name is David Dailey.
He lives off of Boone trail road.
What is your relationship with Mr. Dailey?
- Hello? - [garbled speech]
Hello?
We haven't been properly introduced.
Hi. I'm Lindsay.
Lindsay.
David.
Charmed.
Let's get you out of these clothes.
Come on.
Um... [chuckles]
Oh.
She'll tell us what to do.
No, who are you?
I already told you that.
Why her?
I'll do anything for Sarah.
I love her.
Love. [chuckles]
Do you love me, Susan?
Of course I do.
All this talk about saving our marriage,
you never once mentioned the word "love."
'Cause we don't need to.
Actually, we do.
At least I do.
You're just nervous, David, come on.
Ever since we met, you called the shots:
Where to go, what to do,
who to know, where to live.
And you know, you always sound great saying it.
You sound right.
Even when you're wrong, you sound right.
But this, whatever this is,
this isn't something you're sharing with me.
You know, I said I'd do whatever it takes to save our marriage,
and I just realized it's not worth saving.
Tell me what you need. I'll do whatever you want.
I want you to leave, both of you,
now.
We agreed to stay together.
We agreed to forsake all others.
Are you suggesting we get a divorce?
I'm not suggesting.
I'm insisting.
[sighs]
[rain pattering and thunder rumbling]
[thunder crashes]
[rain pouring and thunder rumbling]
Please think about this.
The power's out.
You'll have to open the door manually.
I could help you with that.
[rain pattering and thunder rumbling]
[tires squealing]
[thunder crashes]
[rain pattering and thunder rumbling]
Dailey, get out here!
I'm gonna kick your ass!
[indistinct shouting]
[high-pitched electronic whine]
[rain pattering and thunder rumbling]
Sean, put the gun down.
You don't tell me what to do, melody.
Smack!
[zapping and grunting]
Ugh!
[sliding rumble]
Crash!
Oh!
Whit!
[moaning]
What are you doing here?
Sorry to bust in on you, dude,
I was working on a surprise for you, man.
Yeah, I bet you were.
Oh, my god.
What are you doing?
Just sit and breathe.
I wasn't gonna shoot him, melody.
I was just trying to scare him.
You?
Everybody's got to retire sometime.
You son of a [...].
Smack! Ooh!
Crash!
This should put an end to that.
Love, grace, might, respect, and finally hope.
Things that you, Dave,
are gonna lose.
I'll see to it personally.
What do you want from me, melody, huh?
I mean, I'm trying to give you everything.
You... look at me, and look at him.
I have.
Just go to Europe, Sean.
Stay awhile.
Good-bye, Sean.
This scandal will define you.
Oh, yeah.
It will be your legacy.
Pop!
It worked that way with Bob Lentz too, right?
Very good, Dave.
Actually, I brought Lentz down with a lie.
I'm bringing you down
with something infinitely more powerful:
The truth.
Why'd you go after him?
He didn't flunk me.
He molested me.
He made me [...].
That's why.
He... i never meant for the guy to off himself.
You're bluffing.
Yeah.
But I had you going there for a second, didn't I?
[knock at door]
[thunder crashes]
That would be melody.
I believe she's here to clean up my mess.
I should leave you two alone.
Your taste in women, Dave,
much to be desired.
Much.
[knocking at door]
David!
Are you in there?
Put the guns down.
Sorry.
Okay.
But can you open up? I'm soaked.
What are you doing here, melody?
It's a long story.
I doubt you'll believe it.
What do you want?
For starters, getting out of the rain.
Okay. Sorry.
Here it is.
Here.
"The wicked is snared
in the work of his own hands."
[rain pattering and thunder rumbling]
Crazy bastard.
I tried to help him.
It's okay.
I mean, you know who it is now.
It's finished. - Yeah.
What happened in there tonight?
Nothing.
You didn't go through with it?
It's over.
What are you gonna do?
Get divorced,
quit my job before they fire me,
declare bankruptcy,
move to Cleveland.
Cleveland?
It's been a long time since I've been alone.
I'm kind of looking forward to it.
You're a terrible liar.
[chuckles softly]
[siren wails]
Louisville police are searching

He's being sought for questioning
