Nice digs! We have an interview. Henry Martin, Jane Van Veen. For the Manager position Mr. Doran likes to approve every tenant himself. obviously whatever you guys said won him over. she's how we get Henry. You and I are the same; we come from nothing. We have to fight and claw to get what we want in this world. It seems that Councilman Sullivan has had some transgressions. his seat may be coming vacant. Keep Henry away from the man with the compass tattoo. As it happened, Nona. You knew Henry was in danger? I found something else. I think you might be interested. -A little girl. Who is she? -That's you. You're a child of the Drake too. Hey, honey, come meet my new assistant. Brian, this is Alexis. What you screwed is my assistant. Please, we can fix this. I will kill you too I Oh my God, I killed her! Henry, I don't feel safe here. Do you understand? I'm scared. If I were you, I would do whatever I could to keep Jane right here. Will you marry me? Uh, yes! Did you not tell your father? He doesn't want to be in my life, Henry. in case you change your mind. You're the only father she's got. This place is Evil and you're in danger by being here. I think the gray one conveys maturity and experience, things that I'm a little short on at the moment. Well I think it looks just as good as the other two that you've already tried on. Yeah, well, today's my first day, I want to dress to impress. The candidate for city council, Henry Martin. Enjoy it, but don't obsess over it. Well, obsessing is my nature, babe, that's why I have everything perfectly organized. and I will start enjoying it once the election's over. and I find my lucky socks. Have you seen my socks with the little blue devils on them? Hmm, should be in your perfectly organized socks drawer. Yeah, well they're not. and this is bad because I wore them when I passed the bar I wore them when we got this apartment. I wore them when you said yes to marry You don't need your socks to get lucky, councilman. I think I can carve out ten minutes for my favorite constituent How? If you want my vote, Mr. Martin, I think you're going to have to give me twenty We're killers We're not. That blond on the floor would say otherwise. My Mom's gonna freak when she sees me in cuffs. We can not go to jail. Our lives are over. My Mom's gonna freak when she sees me in cuffs. We can not go to jail. Our lives are over. She was crazy, Lou. Not only did Alexis come here to kill you, but she played us against each other to do it. Not only did Alexis come here to kill you, but she played us against each other to do it. Now why should we have to pay for the hand that she forced us to play? Because we played it, Brian. The cards on the table look horrible for us. Your affair, my hit and run We have to call the police, we don't have any other choice. Of course, we have a choice. Nobody ever has to know about what happened. Is it your family? Yes, the Yeah, the baby is my daughter, Jane. I came to town for her engagement party. Blink of an eye, right? Yeah. Same thing with my own two. Blink of an eye, right? Yeah. Same thing with my own two. That's my wife, Catherine. The sweetest soul there was and the worst cooking. I know I haven't made the best choices over the years, but Catherine and then Jane. I never knew how lucky I was. Luck changes, huh? Yeah, Catherine died unexpectedly. How'd you lose her? You know It's the strangest thing Catherine drowned right in her own bathtub. Help S01E13 Lazarus Good morning, Mr. D. -Good morning, Tony. Patrick Corey in 2D, has moved out of the building. I'm going to need you to help Jane turn the place over for leasing, OK? I'm going to need you to help Jane turn the place over for leasing, OK? Yeah, no problem. Mr. Corey wasn't with us very long, huh? Longer than you might think. Truth be told, I'm not too upset he's gone. Longer than you might think. Truth be told, I'm not too upset he's gone. Why is that? I didn't care much for Mr. Corey's charms. I didn't care very much for it either. Good morning, Jane. Oh, good morning, Gavin. Thank you again for the party last night. It was wonderful. No champagne hangover? Oh, not too bad. I didn't get a chance to talk to your father. I couldn't help but notice that he left rather abruptly. Yeah, it's sort of a complicated situation. I don't mean to pry. -No, no It's, just, that I'm off to get some coffee now try and sort through some things. Don't let me keep you. -Thanks, Gavin. Wow, your name looks good up there. Yeah, thank you. They're going to put you to work already? Oh yeah, fetching coffee somehow counts as credit for my government class. So And here I thought you weren't into in politics. Oh, I care a lot about the future. I just want to thank you all for being here and being a part of this We're here to fight a good fight. Clean, fair, and with integrity. And we're going to do great things for Manhattan's 53rd district. Well, that's it, I guess. I promise you I will get better at speeches. And now let's get to work. Mr. Martin, I'm Earl. If there's anything you need, let me know. Well, Earl, thank you. You are the exact candidate this city needs. Thank you. - You're welcome. Great, now we have to do is win this thing.. I don't understand much about politics, but I got a good feeling. Yes, good morning, tell me. There are too many things to explain about what happened. You wouldn't understand. I already know that I'm connected to the Drake. I discovered that my grandmother grew up there. And now I find out that you and Mom lived there when I was a baby It can't just be a coincidence, it has to mean something. I don't know what that is, Jane. Well, you can't just drop into my life and tell me I'm in danger there. I already know that I'm in danger there. There has to be a bigger reason And why I came back to the place where it all began. So, Dad, tell me. Why did I come to the Drake? You and your Mom asked that question too. That's what drove her over the cliff.. What do you mean? When you were just a baby, I thought she was having some kind of a breakdown. there was the stress of moving to a new city or something. But then, I realized, The Drake has changed her, Jane. I couldn't bear to see that happen to you too. For all those years I tought maybe a handful of letters, a couple of phone calls. a couple of visits Dad is there a reason why you left me? I was trying to protect you. From what? From the truth. But the fact that you're now living in that terrible place means I failed. Yes? - Sure. Henry? Mr. Doran sent for you? Well, Mr. Polumbo, that is a very generous sum. Well, thank you sir, I appreciate it. All right. Bye bye. A "generous sum"; sounds promising. $ 10 But Mr. Polumbo is 88 years old and now a proud supporter. You have a gift for connecting with people, Henry. I just hope you get the opportunity to do so. That's why we're going to win this election. I couldn't help but otice your rival candidates all took shots at our disgraced city councilman but not you. Yes, I don't think I need to knock down Sullivan or anyone else to show people who I am. Yes, I don't think I need to knock down Sullivan or anyone else to show people who I am. Yeah, I suppose that's one way of looking at it. What's the other way? That you tacitly approve his behavior. Gavin, of course not! Well, I know that. But as they say in politics, if you're not against it, then you must be for it. "Vote for integrity." The high perch. Expect a lot of people to try to knock you off.. Let them try. Henry, I have no doubt you can be a great politician. I just worry that the high road won't get you there. One, two There's no way we're going to get away with this. Lou, we incinerate the clothes we're wearing. We bleach the floor. we put the fireplace poker in the oven, we destroy any DNA evidence I mean, what else are we missing? A heavy dose of sanity? Hey. We're going to do OK. I promise. Alright? -Yes. Alright. OK. What do we do in the basement? The boiler room. Come on! What was it you wanted to talk with us about, Jane? I mean no disrespect but why have you never mentioned that I lived in the building before? We had no idea you were the same little girl we used to see being taken for walks in Central Park. When you interviewed with us you had a completely different name than your mother and father. So you had no idea? Not until last night when we saw Nate at the party. Forgive us, Jane. We wanted to say something, but we didn't think your engagement party was the right time to bring up such a traumatic topic. What do you mean "traumatic"? What is it that you're not telling me? There are things you don't know. about your mother's death. I know she drowned when I was a baby, she was swimming in a lake. No, Jane It happened in her apartment, at the Drake. No. The accident happened at my family's lake house in Indiana. I'm afraid not, Jane. And it wasn't an accident. What do you mean it wasn't an accident? They couldn't prove it, but the police believe that she was murdered. Murdered? And it pains me to tell you but the prime suspect in her death was your father. This is a bad idea, Brian. hiding Alexis's body down here in the basement. Lou, there's no way that we're going to get out of this building without getting seen alright? and besides, no one comes down here anyway. And what do we do after we wall her up, huh? Then what? We go upstairs. We put this whole thing behind us. Nobody gets away with ***. Nobody, nobody gets away with ***. Yes, they do. All the time. We're going to wake up tomorrow morning but we're going to pretend like none of this, none of this happened. Are we going to be able to do that with a clear conscience? because we both know that none of this would have happened if it hadn't been for her. I just want us to be who we were before she came into our lives. Me too. I never thanked you for saving my life. We saved each other, Lou. They all pretty much say the same thing; My mother drowned when she was in the bathtub. She didn't fall, didn't hit her head The only logical explanation, left is *** It just to say it and dumping you with relatives and dropping out of your life. Kind of smells like guilt. Why come back now? I don't know. Let's say it was ***. Shouldn't we be asking why he did it? This article says my father killed my mother because she was having an affair. You were eight months old when she died. I mean between nursing and changing diapers, she was also cheating on her husband? Alright. I better get back. First day of my internship and I'm AWOL for two hours. Not good. What? Something happened to me this morning when I was in the bathtub. OK, that's a quickie. It was before I knew about any of this stuff. Anyway my foot got tangled in the chain to the drain stopper and I I slipped under the water. You slipped? I felt like I was being pulled under; I couldn't sit up; I thought I was going to drown The Drake killed your mother then tried to kill you? I don't think so; when I was under the water, I saw someone watching me. A man. Who? I don't know, by the time I could finally sit up I He was gone, You know the Drake drew you here from 1000 miles away I mean your grandmother's ghost showed you pieces from your family's past. I can't help but wonder if your mother is trying to show you something too. That my father killed her? Or who really did. How are you doing? I'm Henry Martin I running for city council in the special election, There you go. Thank you. You got them all fooled, Martin. They think you're a good man. Have a nice day, Mr. Sullivan. Not bad mouthing me in the press. Great, mister. I've done nothing to you. Leave me alone. Right, "Mister Right Place Right Time." A real opportunist. Which means deep down we're exactly the same. Hey, Henry? Take a good look. Just look what you got to look for. You been drinking? Yeah. Irish Whiskey. But I get the feeling your crowd's more the single malt type? You slept with a staffer. You ruined your career and your marriage; and that's on you.. That's not on me. -That's right. Just keep telling them you're different But we all end up with blood on our hands. I'll tell you a secret, Henry, The blood ends up being your own. I love you. I love you too. You two look like you're working things out. We're trying, Mr. Doran You have a relationship worth fighting for. I admire it. Oh, Louise, it looks like you lost an earring. Oh, God, we will not did you see what happened to Alexis Brian! Think Lou, When was the last time you saw it? To be honest I wasn't really focused on my earrings for the past couple of hours Maybe you left it at Patrick's apt. like the other one. Oh wow, really? That's how you're going to do it? Because I'm pretty sure your affair didn't help us find marital bliss.. Yup, you're right. I'm sorry. But you & I, we have to stick together otherwise this whole thing falls apart. So why don't we just think this through? I can't go back in the basement. We've done everything we could to cover our tracks. All right, we can't risk having something so small unravel us. We've got to go back down there. Did you kill her? Don't ask me that, Jane. No. The conversation that you've been running from my entire life, we are having it right now. Yeah, I guess we are. The papers said that she was having an affair. Had an affair; it was over. So when that, that's why you killed her. Absolutely not. Absolutely not. We got passed it. She broke it off and I convinced her to leave New York so we start all over together. Just two new parents with our baby girl. So why did the police suspect you? Because there was no sign of forced entry. The doors were locked when I got home. Okay? And the cops figured that I was the only one that could've gotten in. I did not kill your mother! Listen, come here Come here! Listen, I was trying to help your mother. Help her how?! Dad, what is so hard to tell me? Jane, your mom was delusional. OK. She was fixated on the Drake. She said the place was full of secret rooms, she started hallucinating. The building was talking to her. OK? It was showing her things. I had to get her out of there before she went crazy. And I failed. What if she wasn't crazy? Dad, there are strange things in that building. I've seen them too. Jane, you need to leave the Drake. No, no, no, you do you'll die there like your mother did. I'm telling you. -I can't Listen to me! -No, you listen to me! Jane You have not been a father to me since the day I was born. And threatening me is not the way to start. Do you understand? Hey! Is there a problem? No, no So just, stay out of my life, OK? Do you understand? I'll take that whiskey now.. Jane? Jane, are you here? Sullivan! What are you doing here? You can't wash it off, Henry. Look at what they make you give. They take, they take, until there is nothing left you're hurt, let me help you. -You've already helped enough. Henry! Yeah, what's up? Oh my God, you gotta see this Stunning news, as disgraced NYC councilman Frank Sullivan was found dead in his upper East side apartment. According to police, Mr. Sullivan apparently died of a self-inflicted gun shot wound. Law enforcement sources say Mr. Sullivan's neighbor saw him enter his apartment alone before hearing a single gunshot Responding police officers forced entry into the home and made the gruesome discovery. This is Henry. -Hello, Henry. Gavin, what's going on? One of the first rules of politics is being able to admit when you've made a mistake, and I made one. You heard about Sullivan? While every other candidate was kicking him you took the high road. And it appears to have paid off. It began after an anonymous source leaked information to the press about his affair Sullivan's life was already falling apart.. He didn't need me pointing out what the entire city already knew Not to sound too ghoulish but I expect that your noble intentions will pay dividends at the polls. Like I said Henry, you're a born politician. Gavin, this wasn't calculated. Of course it wasn't. Stop by for a drink later if you like. I'll be up. Sure. This is insane, I can't believe we're doing this. Nothing else connects us to her except your earring. I thought you said nobody would find her body down here. We can't have anything come back to us, alright? Your earrings are going to be in here, I know it. It has to be I will need some peace for longer. Give me the light. What the hell. What? Brian, what? Brian! Look! Where's your body? I don't know. Alexis is with me. I believe this is yours. Nasty business, what happened. She tried to kill me, OK? It was self-defense We didn't have a choice - Yes Brian, once told me that you would give anything to be back on top. I have good news. Your play is going to be a great success. But I'm afraid you won't be celebrating I don't understand. Louise, ever since that night you hit Alexis with your car you've been living on borrowed time. What do you mean? I mean I own you, Both of you. And I'm terminating the lease. Gavin. -Gavin, wait Wait! It's time to settle up. Gavin! Gavin Please! Gavin, get us out of here! Gavin! No! -Gavin! There's no seal. Brian, I'm scared At least we're together, right, Lou? I'll never let you go Whoa. Hey Frank, what are you doing here? I told you to stay away from me! Dad! If you're seeing things like your mother, then you are in danger. I'm not going to let this place take you like it did her. OK, alright, you've been drinking and you're not making sense. Why don't you come back - I'm not leaving here without you! Do you hear me? Dad, why do you have a gun? I can't let you stay I can't, it's not safe; this place will kill you just like it did your beautiful mother. I couldn't save her then, but I know how to save you. Please let me just call Henry Please You can call Henry from the road. We're leaving. You're hurting me. You way you're looking at me is breaking my heart. How do you expect me to look at you? The day you were born was the happiest day of my life. You and your mother you were everything to me. Hey I know I haven't been any kind of proper father to you, I know. I wasn't there for the homework and the to watch the dance recitals, but I'm here now and I'm going to protect you. And even if it means that you will never talk to me again, At least, I'll know that you're safe. Dad, please, let's just go somewhere and talk about this. Why are we going up? -I don't know. What are we doing here, Gavin? The doorman alerted me from the lobby. I brought you up here so that we could talk like gentlemen. Jane, no! Well, Nate. It appears that circumstances have changed. Nate. Put down the gun. This doesn't have to end like it did with Catherine. I didn't kill my wife! Dad, please, let's just talk about this I didn't kill my wife! Dad, please, let's just talk about this I didn't kill your mother. I swear on her soul that I didn't. You were a blackout drunk. Do you even remember what happened that night? If I blacked out or not, I would never have harmed Catherine And, yet here you are waving a gun at your own daughter. Ironic or predictable?? Come on, Jane, let's get out of here. Jane? Jane? Jane? Nate, put down the gun before you shoot somebody. I can't, it wont let me. Do you hear how that sounds? Nate, you need help. Dad, please It's going to be OK. Just give me the gun. I'm trying, I can't move my arm. Jane? -Henry, just stay back! Nate, what the hell are you doing? -Dad, don't! Sorry, I can't stop it! Henry! Oh, my God Oh, my God, you're going to be OK Help him, please! Look at me, you're gonna be OK alright? No, no, stay with me, baby, stay with me. I didn't shoot him. Dad, help him! Henry. No, no, keep looking at me, look at me Dad! Oh, my God! The lobby is out of order, Mr. McKenny We're going to basement. Help him, please. There's something I have to tell you first. -Henry is dying! You need to know the truth about the Drake. You need to know why you're here. Why am I here? You're here because I loved your mother very much. She had a special connection with the Drake. It seems to run in the family. The affair, it was you? She betrayed me, Jane. What was I supposed to do? I couldn't let her take you away from me. You killed her because of me? Nate McKenny is not your father. No. No! Catherine knew. I think Nate suspected. He stole you away in the middle of the night hid you with relatives. I hoped with all my heart that I would see you again, to be reunited with my daughter And then one day, you came home. I can save Henry. Please. Please, I'll do anything. You have to understand, Jane, there is a price to pay for the thing we want the most. ONE YEAR LATER "Author of theater and his wife disappeared."
