I'm not saying that at all. I'm sure he's sad.
That's probably why he's acting out.

so I don't have to pay him alimony?
I'm practically giving them a motive,
plus I will be crucified in the press.
Yeah, but it -- but -- but nothing.
I already gave them my story. I can't change it now.
Okay, so where exactly does that leave me?
Why did you tell them the truth?
I'm sorry! I've never been in a situation like this before!
We need to get you a lawyer.
We need to get you a good lawyer.
I will pay for everything.
I don't want you to pay for a lawyer for me, calista.
I want you to be my friend.
Look, they have nothing on you.
You have no motive.
You were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Yeah, but they think that I'm lying. Do you understand?
And you refusing to tell the truth
makes me look like I'm lying.
I understand that,
but do you understand that I have no choice?
No, you do have a choice. You absolutely have a choice.
I know it makes things harder for you, but --
I am not going down for this
because you're too stupid to keep your mouth shut.
Oh, don't. I didn't mean it like that.
I can help you.
I don't want your help.
[ Scoffs ] [ Door closes ]
[ Engine starts ]
Alec: Stop. Stop.
God, you're the one that got us into this mess.
Vivian: Got you into this mess? Yes!
That -- that's what we're going with? Yes!
I didn't know you were an unwilling participant
in this relationship.
Wow! I cannot believe you went to her without me.
I -- don't you do that to her. This is not Karen's fault.
I went to her because I knew
that she and I could have a measured conversation,
whereas I knew you would immediately become defensive.
I'm not defensive. I'm angry.
I understand why you're upset.
And for the record, i wouldn't be angry
if you'd at least come to me first.
Aren't I at least owed that?
But you were the one who made the decision to lie to me.
Stop! Everyone, stop!
[ Sighs ] It doesn't matter how this all came out.
What matters is how we deal with things moving forward.
Exactly.
We need to establish some rules
so no one ever gets hurt like this again.
Good idea. Honestly, I think i was more upset about the fact
that you both felt the need to keep this from me.
That makes perfect sense.
I'm sorry. What in the hell are you two talking about?
I had sex with another woman when you were out of town,
and the only thing you're mad about is I didn't tell you?
Do you know how insane that sounds?
You've been having sex with another woman for weeks, Ali.
That's obviously not the issue.
Well, I think it is. It is for me.
I can't do this anymore.
Ali... No, I'm done.
It's too much.
I'm scared.
Karen, you know how much i care about you,
and obviously I'm very attracted to you.
But, Vivian, you are my wife.
I chose you to spend the rest of my life with.
And I'm worried the longer we stay in this,
whatever this is,
everything we have may fall apart.
I think we've been falling apart for a while, Ali.
That's not true.
Before Karen came into our lives,
you and I were practically roommates.
We both know a marriage can't survive the way we were.
Without Karen,
I'm not sure it won't go back to being the same.
Oh, I'm betting on us.
I think we can find our way back.
At least...I wanna try.
Don't you?
Karen...
No, Vivian.

[ Sighs deeply ]
You know, I'm proud of you.
For what?
Keeping up your end of the bargain.

Hey. You're bloody late.
I had a night.
Did ya? [ Laughs ]
All right, let's hear it.
Unfortunately, it wasn't exactly the night I was hoping for,
but, uh, she did... [ Inhales deeply ]
Ask me to give you her number.
No.
Yeah.
Oh, mate. Sorry.
Oh, these things happen.
You know I would never go there, right?
Oh, it doesn't matter. It's not so much about her.
It's...It's more the fact that you were right.
Really? What was I right about?
The other day, when you called me a loser.
What are you talking about? I never called you a loser.
I had to use your apartment to get laid.
I mean, that's the basic definition of loser.
[ Magazine thuds ]
[ Sighs ] I mean, the point is,
why would April ever go for a guy like me?
I got nothing.
Come on, mate. You got plenty --
what? Wait a minute.
[ Tools clink ]
Pretty sure you said you didn't have feelings for April.
Even if I did, it doesn't matter.
She's all about that Blair guy.
And why shouldn't she be? He's got everything figured out.
He takes her to nice dinners and whatever.
He's much more her speed.
Not if he's a douche.
Yeah, well, maybe he's not.
Maybe I'm just jealous, you know? Who knows?
Okay.
You're being way too hard on yourself here, mate.
Come on. Just relax.
Have a beer.

And the way she turned it all around,
it was literally genius.
I was up all night long,
thinking that I did the wrong thing,
that maybe me telling the truth was a mistake.
That's crazy. It -- it is crazy.
But that's what crazy people are good at --
making you feel like you're the crazy one.
Well, we knew about the plan. We can corroborate your story.
Yeah, oh, my best friends corroborating my story.
I don't think that's gonna fly.
Was there anyone else who knew?
No, i only told you guys.
I can't imagine she told anyone.
Although there -- there was the guy
who installed the camera.
We were both there when he did it.
He could at least verify that much.
Well, maybe that's enough to cast some doubt
on calista's version of things. What company did you use?
Oh! I...I don't know. It was one of her guys.
Do you remember anything?
A business card? A logo on his shirt?
No, i-i -- nothing. I don't even remember what he looked like.
A credit card would show the transaction.
You could subpoena those records.
She always pays in cash. I'm so screwed!
What kind of a person does something like this?
People with cluster b personality disorder.
Please don't shrink out on me right now, Karen. In English.
It's a form of narcissism.
People who are excessively preoccupied
with power, prestige, and vanity
can become mentally unable to see
the destructive damage they're causing to themselves or others.
So, what? She's some kind of sociopath?
Technically, no.
Oh, my god! She's totally a sociopath.
Well, you know what else sociopaths do? Kill people.
Wait. I did not say -- no, I'm saying that.
What if calista is the killer?
No, you guys, it totally makes sense.
I mean, it makes absolute sense.
She hated Luca. She really hated him.
He was gonna take everything from her in the divorce.
If that's not a motive, i don't know what is.
Joss... And then that night?
Guys, I was texting her and texting her
to see if we got everything that we needed on the camera,
and she just never responded.
What? What do you mean? I texted her a few times,
and she didn't write back. And then... [ Slaps palm ]
The lights went out.
Oh, my god.
What if she was in the house the whole time?
What if the reason that she didn't write me back
was because she was too busy cutting the power,
getting ready to kill Luca?
Do you really think she's capable of that?
I don't know. I really don't know.
