Short filmTranscript
00:00:02Hmm...
00:00:03Becca, it's midnight.
00:00:04And you're still writing, I know.
00:00:07Listen, I sold your spec script to a producer.
00:00:09He wants changes.
00:00:10What kind of changes?
00:00:12Happy ending.
00:00:13He says tragedy doesn't sell.
00:00:15It's a murder mystery.
00:00:17Someone has to die.
00:00:18Then kill the villain, not the heroine.
00:00:21Call me tomorrow.
00:00:27Everyone's an editor.
00:00:31Done.
00:00:32Silent billionaire kills his fiancΓ©e.
00:00:35No one suspects him.
00:00:37Perfect.
00:00:40I wish I could live inside your world.
00:00:43Just one week.
00:00:45Just to see if I got it right.
00:00:56What the...
00:01:14No, no.
00:01:16No way.
00:01:17This is...
00:01:18This is my script.
00:01:20The engagement.
00:01:22The penthouse.
00:01:23The silent fiancΓ©e.
00:01:25I wrote all of this.
00:01:36Must have been a nightmare.
00:01:46I have seven days.
00:01:48And I'm the only one who knows how the ends.
00:01:58In my script, he's a killer.
00:02:00But right now, he just looks like a guy who's really boring with his coffee.
00:02:06So, what's on your schedule today?
00:02:15Where?
00:02:19Just curious.
00:02:20I might drop by later.
00:02:24He doesn't believe me.
00:02:26He never does.
00:02:27But I'm going anyway.
00:02:36in the script the victim is found at three o'clock i have 13 minutes
00:02:47yeah i smell gas strong like really strong you should send someone
00:02:54i already called 9-1-1 you should wait outside now who are you someone who doesn't want to die

00:03:20i don't know what you're
00:03:34how
00:03:36i got lucky
00:03:39he spoke he spoke to me and i lied to his face
00:03:46seven days one down five to go
00:03:55did you hear that assistant almost died yesterday and guess who called 9-1-1 sloan harper the same
00:04:00sloan harper who's engaged to sebastian sterling the guy who never talks the one and only some
00:04:05people are saying she knew it was gonna happen like before it happened that's creepy what's
00:04:09creepier is that her fiance's family had some old feud with the vances like 15 years ago
00:04:13something about kidnapping kidnapping i didn't write that what are they talking about
00:04:21i didn't write this someone else did someone's been in my computer
00:04:34sebastian what happened to your mother
00:04:39i'm sorry
00:04:41what are you i'm not i can't explain not yet
00:04:50he knows i'm going to try to stop it but he doesn't know how
00:05:06what do you want someone else knows the future and they're playing a game with me
00:05:10tomorrow i stop the second murder then i find whoever's been in my computer
00:05:28if it's nothing why hide it
00:05:31my past i grew up in brooklyn my grandmother raised me there's nothing to know
00:05:39isabella vance the victim or maybe not just a victim that tattoo i wrote it into my script
00:05:46for a villain but i didn't write it for isabella someone changed that too
00:05:53you didn't want me to come but you didn't stop me
00:05:58and you're not
00:06:02time to check the brakes
00:06:14black sedan license vance one flat tire the owner doesn't know yet just send someone
00:06:21i'm fine just car sick
00:06:29his vehicle reportedly suffered a mechanical failure but a tow truck's early arrival may have prevented a
00:06:33tragedy police are investigating possible tampering
00:06:36i couldn't let him die
00:06:40because if he died they would blame you
00:06:53thank you
00:06:55you don't have to thank me
00:06:57i know
00:06:59who cut the brake line who tampered with my script that tattoo isabella vance who is she really
00:07:16you asked me to dig into the vance sterling history i found something 15 years ago vance
00:07:22industry and sterling group signed a settlement agreement the details are sealed but there's a
00:07:26clause that's been partially redacted it says in the event of default by sterling the vance family
00:07:29reserves the right to personal scenes accountability from sebastian sterling personal accountability what
00:07:34is that could be anything financial legal or criminal so if someone wanted to destroy
00:07:39sebastian they could engineer a default and then claim he's accountable that's the theory but he benefits
00:07:45isabella's mother elaine vance she's a lawyer she would have known how to write this clause
00:07:50she's been vance attorney for 20 years
00:07:57it's them it's always been them
00:08:02sloan harper you've been someone who's been reading your script who is this the real one
00:08:06the one before all the changes what do you want to warn you or threaten you whichever you prefer
00:08:11get to the point you think you're saving people but every time you intervene the story changes
00:08:15and the next death becomes harder to prevent what are you saying i'm saying you won't save them all
00:08:21and in the end you'll be the one who pays
00:08:25what was that someone who knows too much
00:08:31you're scared yes of what
00:08:39of losing you
00:08:41i didn't plan this i didn't write this but here we are
00:08:52it's done the brakes were cut i know i watched but she called a tow truck
00:08:57he's alive i'm aware she's proving to be resourceful what's the next move the engagement
00:09:02party we don't touch her until then let her think she's winning when she falls he falls with her
00:09:09that's the beauty of love that makes you vulnerable
00:09:17i traced elaine vance's financial records for the past 15 years some accounts in the caveman's not in her name
00:09:21but the money flows to her can you connect her to the kidnapping not directly but she was sterling's personal
00:09:25attorney she resigned one week before the kidnapping then she joined vance group
00:09:28the timing is too perfect she knew it was going to happen maybe she planned it but why what's the
00:09:34motive
00:09:35this personal accountability clause if sterling group defaults the vance's can go after sebastian
00:09:38after the kidnapping sterling's wife disappears the company falls into chaos and the vance's sign this agreement
00:09:43so elaine engineered the kidnapping to control sterling
00:09:45not just control extortion
00:09:46every step the breaks the murders the framing it was all her plan
00:09:49there's a problem
00:09:50the murder details in the script elaine couldn't have written those some of them
00:09:52only i knew
00:09:53you think she has an accomplice
00:09:54someone hacked me has been copying my files
00:09:56that person is the real prophet elaine is just the executor
00:10:08no if they see bodyguards they'll move fast i go see her warn her but i can't tell her the
00:10:12truth her heart can't take it
00:10:16you're too recognizable that face gets noticed everywhere
00:10:21you're joking at a time like this
00:10:23he's the man the world calls cold
00:10:25but what he remembers is how to make me smile

00:18:14in the script
00:18:16isabella is poisoned at the party
00:18:18but the killer isn't sebastian
00:18:19it's elaine
00:18:20she wants to kill her own daughter and frame sebastian
00:18:22why kill her own daughter
00:18:23because isabella knows too much
00:18:26she's a liability
00:18:27elaine wants control of sterling group

00:18:31you make elaine expose herself

00:28:54i wrote a script
00:28:54you stole it and changed the enemy
00:28:57but you forgot
00:28:58the original author always knows how the real ending is
00:29:01your mother won't live much longer
00:29:06he's lying
00:29:07we'll find her
00:29:10what will happen to me
00:29:11if you testify against your mother and kendrick
00:29:13you might get a reduced sentence
00:29:14why should i help you
00:29:16Not helping me, helping yourself.
00:29:17Your mother was going to have you killed at this party to silence you.
00:29:20I dismantled the bomb.
00:29:30Your mother will be found.
00:29:32The FBI has already sent a team to Austria.
00:29:35For what?
00:29:36For finding my voice.
00:29:39That was your own voice.
00:29:40I just kept listening.
00:29:43One battle won, but the war isn't over.
00:29:56She's asking for you.
00:29:59For me?
00:30:00She says she won't talk unless you're there.
00:30:12You won.
00:30:14But you didn't beat Kendrick.
00:30:16There's someone behind him.
00:30:19Who?
00:30:21You think a retired judge could access Swiss clinics?
00:30:25Bride detectives control Sterling Group for 15 years?
00:30:27It's just a pawn.
00:30:30Who's the player?
00:30:32I don't know the name.
00:30:35Only the codon.
00:30:36The bishop.
00:30:38The bishop.
00:30:39The bishop.
00:30:39In chess, the bishop moves diagonally.
00:30:41It never attacks head on.
00:30:43Always from the side.
00:30:44Does Kendrick know who the bishop is?
00:30:45He won't say.
00:30:47He's more afraid of that person than of going to prison.
00:30:50I'm done.
00:30:51But you can keep digging.
00:30:52As long as you're not afraid to die.
00:30:54I'm not afraid to die.
00:30:56I'm afraid of dying without finding the truth.
00:30:59Bishop Chess.
00:31:00Could be a code name for someone inside the legal system?
00:31:03Kendrick was a judge.
00:31:05Elaine was a lawyer.
00:31:06Their common ground is the legal system.
00:31:09Could the bishop be in the legal system too?
00:31:16Who?
00:31:21Clarence Whitston, federal high court judge.
00:31:24He and Kendrick were law school classmates.
00:31:27Whitston's wife is Catherine Sterling's cousin.
00:31:31Family.
00:31:32That's the real bishop.
00:31:33He's been hiding in the safest place possible, the courthouse.
00:31:38We can't investigate him directly.
00:31:40He's a federal judge.
00:31:42Immunity.
00:31:42But we can investigate his money.
00:31:45Find Whitman's financial records.
00:31:47Especially any transfers between him and Kendrick.
00:31:49That requires a court order.
00:31:51We already have one court.
00:31:53The court of public opinion.
00:31:56I have a bigger story for you.
00:31:58A federal judge involved in kidnapping, money laundering, attempted murder.
00:32:04Interested?
00:32:05I'll be there in 30 minutes.
00:32:12If we can't bring him down, at least we can show the world who he is.
00:32:22Former Vance Industries legal counsel, Elaine Vance, and retired judge, Edmund Kendrick, have been arrested for kidnapping, money laundering, and
00:32:32other charges.
00:32:33Police are investigating whether others might have been arrested for murder.
00:32:42We're famous.
00:32:49Better than missing.
00:32:53The FBI found my mother.
00:32:57When?
00:32:59Why didn't you say anything?
00:33:01This afternoon.
00:33:02She's in Austria.
00:33:04Alpine sanctuary.
00:33:08Alive.
00:33:09Weak, but alive.
00:33:23Catherine Sterling, we're from the FBI.
00:33:25We're here to take you home.
00:33:28Sebastian.
00:33:30Is he alright?
00:33:31He's fine.
00:33:32He's engaged.
00:33:34Her name is Sloane Harper.
00:33:36She helped us find you.
00:33:41Has he spoken?
00:33:43Yes.
00:33:45Because of Mrs. Harper.
00:33:47I want to see them.
00:33:48Arrangements are being made.
00:33:59You used to sit on my lap and tell me a story.
00:34:03Before.
00:34:05I remember.
00:34:06And then one day, you stopped talking.
00:34:12I blamed myself.
00:34:14No.
00:34:15I blamed myself.
00:34:17I heard you being taken.
00:34:19I didn't scream loud enough.
00:34:21You were a child.
00:34:23A child can't stop armed men.
00:34:27But I could have...
00:34:28You could have died, and I would have lost you forever.
00:34:31Your silence kept you alive.
00:34:33That's not weakness.
00:34:34That's survival.
00:34:39And now you're speaking for her.
00:34:43For yourself.
00:34:45I'm proud of you.
00:34:53You're Sloanen?
00:34:55Yes.
00:34:57Thank you for finding me.
00:34:59Thank you for making him speak.
00:35:03He wanted to speak.
00:35:07I just stayed with him.
00:35:11Your father would be so proud to see you now.
00:35:18He didn't know the truth.
00:35:20He didn't know the truth.
00:35:22Before he died, he knew.
00:35:24He told me not to tell you.
00:35:28He knew you would seek revenge.
00:35:31He knew you would destroy yourself.
00:35:35So he chose silence to keep you alive.
00:35:42You haven't disappointed him.
00:35:47You found love.
00:35:49You found your voice.
00:35:52That's enough.
00:35:56You two are going to get married?
00:36:02We haven't decided yet.
00:36:04Then I've decided for you.
00:36:07You must get married.
00:36:09I want to live to see that day.
00:36:17Your mother is strong.
00:36:23Like you.
00:36:25I'm not strong.
00:36:27I just didn't have a choice.
00:36:29There are always choices.
00:36:32You chose the hardest path.
00:36:35You chose to save me.
00:36:42You saved me, too.
00:36:44In the script, no one managed to disappear.
00:36:46But you kept me here.
00:36:53I'm not a script.
00:36:55What?
00:36:57You're not.
00:36:58In a script.
00:37:00You're.
00:37:01In my life.
00:37:15Can't sleep?
00:37:17Too much has happened.
00:37:20Sit down.
00:37:21I need to tell you something.
00:37:24About your mother.
00:37:26Your mother, Helen, was my husband's sister.
00:37:31She was my best friend.
00:37:33She was Edward Sterling's daughter.
00:37:36Your grandfather.
00:37:36That means you and Sebastian are cousins.
00:37:41So Sebastian is my cousin?
00:37:43Yes.
00:37:44Your mother was his aunt.
00:37:46You're his first cousin.
00:37:49But blood doesn't matter.
00:37:51What matters is she entrusted you to me.
00:37:55And then I was kidnapped.
00:37:58So you ended up with your grandmother.
00:38:02Is my mother still alive?
00:38:05I don't know.
00:38:07But your grandmother said she's dead.
00:38:12Then I'll find the truth.
00:38:15Not for her.
00:38:16For myself.
00:38:17You and Sebastian.
00:38:19Blood or not.
00:38:21You belong together.
00:38:22Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
00:38:32Cousins.
00:38:34Cousins.
00:38:38Doesn't change anything.
00:38:42No.
00:38:42It doesn't.
00:38:49Breaking news.
00:38:51Judge Clarence Witsmatt has announced his retirement.
00:38:54He denies all charges.
00:38:55Calls the investigation a witch hunt.
00:38:57He's retiring?
00:38:59He hasn't even been indicted.
00:39:01The FBI says there's not enough evidence.
00:39:03Witsner has a very good legal team.
00:39:07He's hiding.
00:39:09No.
00:39:10He's preparing a counterattack.
00:39:12My husband left a diary before he died.
00:39:17He said if I ever came back to give it to Sebastian.
00:39:23Where is it?
00:39:25In my room.
00:39:26The bottom drawer.
00:39:31Mother.
00:39:32Did you ever see his body?
00:39:33What?
00:39:34After the plane crash.
00:39:35Did you identify him?
00:39:36Your father's attorney handled everything.
00:39:38He said the body was too badly burned for an open casket.
00:39:41I never saw him.
00:39:42Who was the attorney?
00:39:45Edmund Kendrick.
00:39:47We never confirmed he was dead.
00:39:49That's something to keep in mind.
00:40:00The king.
00:40:02Who is the king?
00:40:03Marcus, can you trace any mention of the king in the financial records?
00:40:07Already on it.
00:40:09I'll have something by tonight.
00:40:15We're getting married.
00:40:20That's not a question.
00:40:22No.
00:40:23It's a decision.
00:40:26When?
00:40:27Soon.
00:40:28Before the king makes his next one.
00:40:34Then, we plan a wedding.
00:40:37And a takedown.
00:40:39Both.
00:40:47Catherine.
00:40:49You look thin.
00:40:51You look old.
00:40:54I only have one question.
00:40:57Why?
00:41:03Power.
00:41:04Money.
00:41:05Your father wouldn't let me join the Sterling Board.
00:41:08That's it?
00:41:09Your father ruined my career.
00:41:11I would have been chief justice.
00:41:12But he wrote a letter to the judicial committee, said I lack judicial temperament.
00:41:17That letter cost me the promotion.
00:41:18So I spent 15 years, piece by piece, destroying his family.
00:41:23So you locked up his daughter, turned his son mute, and bled his company dry.
00:41:29You were an accident.
00:41:31You weren't supposed to be in this story.
00:41:33The story wasn't yours to write.
00:41:35You stole my script and tried to change the ending.
00:41:38The ending hasn't been written yet.
00:41:40Your husband begged me to spare you.
00:41:42I agreed.
00:41:44But I never agreed to spare your son.
00:41:57He's lying.
00:41:58He can't hurt us anymore.
00:42:04My father knew it was Whitman.
00:42:09He chose silence to protect you.
00:42:13If he had fought back, maybe mother wouldn't have.
00:42:18Maybe.
00:42:19Or maybe more people would have died.
00:42:21Your father made the choice he thought was right.
00:42:23If I had spoken then, maybe...
00:42:25You were 12 years old.
00:42:27You heard your mother being taken.
00:42:28You were terrified.
00:42:29That wasn't your fault.
00:42:31You're speaking now.
00:42:32That's enough.
00:42:33I've been waiting for this all day.
00:42:42Still writing?
00:42:44Writing the ending.
00:42:47How do you want it to end?
00:42:52A wedding.
00:42:54And at the wedding, we expose Whitman's crimes.
00:42:57Not with violence.
00:42:58With the truth.
00:43:01Whose wedding?
00:43:05Ours.
00:43:11No.
00:43:13I'm informing you.
00:43:19Yes.
00:43:22This is our story now.
00:43:27And I get to write the ending.
00:43:38I found something.
00:43:40Sterling Group's old records.
00:43:41Sebastian's grandfather, Edward Sterling, had a private safe deposit box in Switzerland.
00:43:46It was never opened after his death.
00:43:48Where in Switzerland?
00:43:49Zurich.
00:43:50A private bank that doesn't ask questions.
00:43:52That's the problem.
00:43:53The bank requires a key and a personal code.
00:43:55The code might be in the diary.
00:43:58371.
00:43:59That could be the box number.
00:44:01Not we.
00:44:02You and me.
00:44:03Marcus stays with your mother.
00:44:04Be careful.
00:44:05If the king finds out, you're going there.
00:44:12How may I help you?
00:44:14We need to open safe deposit box 371.
00:44:17It belonged to Edward Sterling.
00:44:20Please follow me.
00:44:28Your key, please.
00:44:38Sebastian.
00:44:39If you are reading this, I am gone.
00:44:41I know who took your mother.
00:44:43I know who controls the organization.
00:44:44But I cannot tell you because that person will kill you.
00:44:47Forgive my cowardice.
00:44:48The USB drive contains everything.
00:44:49Accounts, transfers, recordings.
00:44:50Give to someone you trust and live.
00:44:52Your father wasn't a coward.
00:44:54He was protecting you.
00:45:06Captain Sterling must disappear, not kill him.
00:45:09That invites investigation.
00:45:11Send her to Switzerland.
00:45:12Lock her away.
00:45:13What about Sebastian?
00:45:15He's a child.
00:45:15He doesn't speak.
00:45:16No one will listen to him.
00:45:18What if he does speak?
00:45:20Then make sure he never speaks again.
00:45:22That's enough to arrest Whitney.
00:45:25But he's already retired.
00:45:27Retired doesn't mean immune.
00:45:30We have new evidence.
00:45:31Enough to put Whitman away for life.
00:45:33I'll send a team to pick it up.
00:45:35Your father spent 15 years gathering this.
00:45:39Now we finish what he started.
00:45:40Together.
00:45:42Whitman will be arrested tomorrow.
00:45:45And after?
00:45:46After we planned the wedding.
00:45:49You really want to marry me?
00:45:51Knowing that I'm...
00:45:54Damaged?
00:45:55Everyone's damaged.
00:45:57You just wear yours on the inside.
00:46:00And I like the inside.
00:46:02Then yes.
00:46:04Wedding.
00:46:05And then?
00:46:06What about the king?
00:46:08One thing at a time.
00:46:19Judge Whitman, do you have any comment?
00:46:28He's asked to speak with you, Miss Harper.
00:46:31Me?
00:46:32Alone.
00:46:33No.
00:46:38It's all right.
00:46:39He can't hurt me.
00:46:43You think you've won.
00:46:45I think justice is finally happening.
00:46:51Justice.
00:46:53That's a fairytale of children.
00:46:55Why did you want to see me?
00:47:01To tell you the truth about your mother, Helen Sterling wasn't just Edward's daughter.
00:47:06She was the first person who tried to expose the organization, and she paid for it.
00:47:09You killed her.
00:47:14Margaret, the woman you call grandmother is not your grandmother.
00:47:19She's the woman who stole you.
00:47:21Your real grandmother died years ago.
00:47:24Margaret is the ghost.
00:47:27The ghost?
00:47:28The one who gives orders.
00:47:31The bishop is me.
00:47:33But the ghost is above the ghost.
00:47:38She founded the organization, Edward Sterling.
00:47:41And when he tried to leave, she destroyed him.
00:47:44Why are you telling me this?
00:47:49Because she's going to kill you, Sloane.
00:47:51And I want you to know who before you die.
00:47:57Good luck.
00:48:04What did he say?
00:48:05That my grandmother is not my grandmother.
00:48:09That she's the head of the organization.
00:48:13And she's going to kill me.
00:48:15Then we stop her first.
00:48:17Whitman says the ghost is Margaret.
00:48:20The woman I've been calling grandmother my whole life.
00:48:25Margaret was your mother's nanny.
00:48:28Your real grandmother died when your mother was 16.
00:48:32Margaret stayed on.
00:48:34She must have taken your mother's identity.
00:48:37And then, then yours.
00:48:39So the woman in Brooklyn's is an imposter.
00:48:42She's been watching Sloane since childhood.
00:48:44She's been waiting for me to become useful.
00:48:46Or dangerous.
00:48:51The one you call grandmother is not your grandmother.
00:48:54She's going to kill you, Sloane.
00:48:56Then we stop her first.
00:48:58She's been waiting for me to become useful.
00:49:00Or dangerous.
00:49:01How do we prove it?
00:49:03We don't.
00:49:04We let her prove it herself.
00:49:10Grandma.
00:49:11I need to see you.
00:49:12Tonight.
00:49:13Alone.
00:49:14Of course, dear.
00:49:15I'll make tea.
00:49:17She'll come.
00:49:19And I'll be ready.
00:49:20I'm coming with you.
00:49:21No.
00:49:22She said alone.
00:49:23If she sees you, she won't show her hand.
00:49:26Then I'll be close.
00:49:28Very close.
00:49:29Very close.
00:49:29Very close.
00:49:35You look tired, dear.
00:49:37I've had a lot on my mind.
00:49:38Sit.
00:49:39Tell me.
00:49:42I know who you are.
00:49:47What do you mean?
00:49:50You're not my grandmother.
00:49:52You're the ghost.
00:49:53You founded the organization with Edward Sterling.
00:49:56You've been controlling everything for decades.
00:50:03I wondered when you'd figure it out.
00:50:08You're smarter than your mother.
00:50:10She never figured it out.
00:50:13What did you do to her?
00:50:17I loved her.
00:50:18But she betrayed me.
00:50:20She married a man I didn't approve of.
00:50:22She wanted to leave the organization.
00:50:25So I made her leave.
00:50:27Permanently.
00:50:29You killed your own daughter.
00:50:32I killed a traitor.
00:50:34There's a difference.
00:50:36You have two choices, Sloane.
00:50:39Join me or disappear like your mother.
00:50:44There's a third choice.
00:50:46What's that?
00:50:48I bring you down.
00:50:49With what evidence?
00:50:50Whitman is in jail.
00:50:52Kendrick won't talk.
00:50:54Elaine is broken.
00:50:55You have nothing on me.
00:50:57I have your confession.
00:50:59You recorded me?
00:51:01Every word.
00:51:07Margaret Harper, you are under arrest.
00:51:15This isn't over.
00:51:17It is for you.
00:51:21You did it.
00:51:25You did it.
00:51:41Do you, Sebastian, take Sloane to be your wife?
00:51:44I do.
00:51:48And you, Sloane?
00:51:50I do.
00:51:52I pronounce you husband and wife.
00:52:02To my son and new daughter.
00:52:08Happy?
00:52:09Happy?
00:52:10More than I ever thought possibly.
00:52:27Come to gloat.
00:52:30Come to say goodbye.
00:52:33You think this is over.
00:52:35It's not.
00:52:38The king is still out there.
00:52:40Then I'll find him.
00:52:43He'll find you first.
00:52:50All right?
00:52:51No.
00:52:53But I will be.
00:52:55Together.
00:52:56Together.
00:53:10This is nice.
00:53:12We deserve it.
00:53:17You've come a long way from typing on your phone.
00:53:20You've come a long way from eating contracts.
00:53:23That was a good move.
00:53:27It was insane.
00:53:29Insane works.
00:53:37Sebastian.
00:53:43The king.
00:53:44Your grandfather had a box under that name?
00:53:48Or someone else did.
00:53:49We have to go.
00:53:50We're on our honeymoon.
00:53:52The king won't wait.
00:53:54You're impossible.
00:53:56You married me anyway.
00:53:57Geneva.
00:53:58Tomorrow morning.
00:54:01This box is under a different protocol.
00:54:03Only the account holder can open it.
00:54:04The account holder is dead.
00:54:06Then the box remains sealed.
00:54:08I'm sorry.
00:54:09The protocol requires a blood sample for DNA verification.
00:54:12Fine.
00:54:12Take the sample.
00:54:16The DNA matches.
00:54:17You may open the box.
00:54:30M.
00:54:31M.
00:54:32Margaret.
00:54:33Your grandfather started the organization with her.
00:54:36And why is she in prison and he's dead?
00:54:38Because she betrayed him.
00:54:39She took over.
00:54:42the king is empty no it means the king can be anyone who sits in the chair
00:54:53you're thinking i'm thinking that we've only scratched the surface
00:54:57then we keep scratching you're not scared of what of what we might find i spent 15 years afraid to
00:55:06speak i'm not spending the rest of my life afraid to know the truth i love you i know you're
00:55:15supposed
00:55:15to say it back i love you too what's wrong it's katherine she's been taken to the hospital
00:55:31what happened a car accident but it wasn't an accident someone cut her brake lines we're coming
00:55:38home now i'm fine just a few broken ribs who did this i didn't see but i heard the mechanics
00:55:51say
00:55:51the brakes were cut cleanly it's the king he's sending a message then we answer
00:56:00marcus find every connection edward sterling had every business partner every rival everyone who
00:56:04might want to sit in that empty chair you're angry yes good use it edward sterling had three major
00:56:11partners one is dead one is in prison the third is a ghost no records after 1990 a ghost someone
00:56:19who erased himself but i found a trail he moved money through a series of shell companies the last
00:56:23transaction was last week where to a bank in libenstein and from there to a private account
00:56:28in switzerland under the name m sterling m sterling margaret or someone using her name but margaret is
00:56:34in prison so either she has a partner outside or the king is not margaret then who what if edward
00:56:40didn't start the organization alone what if there was a third person there's no record of a third then
00:56:44we make a record we flush him out how we announce that we found edward's second box that we know
00:56:50the
00:56:50king's identity and we wait that's dangerous everything about this has been dangerous do it
