666 Park Avenue

Previously on 666 Park Avenue...

Hello, Sasha.

I missed you, dad.

I missed you, too.

What did you do to me, damn it?

My computer freezes. The pencils break.

My mind goes blank.

You write when you're with me.

You know you want me.

- Take her downstairs. - No! No!

It was 1927.

My name was Libby Griffith.

I was in her body. Help!

It's no accident that I came here, is it?

Help me.

How'd you sleep?

Not well.

As you could imagine.

What do you have up your sleeve?

Why is it so important I stick around this morning?

Soon all will be revealed.

Gavin, you know I hate surprises.

You hate when people are late.

You hate traffic.

You hate when I put the empty milk container

back in the fridge.

But you most certainly do not hate surprises.

You know I love you, I would do anything for you?

Of course I do.

Like everything else, we will get through this together.

Hey.

Hey.

- What you looking at? - Frank Sullivan.

No comment.

Uh, frank Sullivan the, uh, city councilman, right?

Yeah. Not for long. Look.

He just got busted sleeping with his 18-year-old intern.

Sounds like a great guy.

What's that look for?

Well, you know the dorans' party tonight?

It's a little bit more than a party.

It's a fund-raiser.

For what?

Gavin wants to announce

My run for Sullivan's council seat.

When did this happen?

Well, he called while you were out.

I guess he said there's, you know,

Gonna be pressure on him to resign,

And when he does, there's gonna be a special election.

Oh, well, when would that be?

A few months. Maybe sooner.

Oh, my god, Henry. That's great.

Things are gonna change.

Things already are changing.

Hey, you seem great.

You seem back to your old self.

You mean...

For someone who spent two days in the nuthouse?

Yes, for a crazy person, you seem great.

I love you, Henry.

And I won't let anything come between us,

Ever.

You ready?

Thank you.

Does she know I'm coming?

Your mother's emotions on this will be complex.

I'm not sure even she knows what to expect.

And my first priority is protecting her.

I thought you said that she wanted to see me.

Well, she does.

But more than that, I believe she needs to see you.

She has questions that she deserves answers to.

Are you happy I'm back?

Of course.

I'm sorry.

I'm sure you are.

Well, whatever I have to do to make things right...

I want to.

Let's just see how this goes with your mother,

And then we'll take it from there.

All right?

All right.

Sasha?

I'm sure you both have a lot to talk about.

Episode 1x10: The Comfort Of Death

What do you think of this one?

I still like the first one better.

It's got more depth, better color saturation.

Yeah, so do I.

Here. Put this one in there.

I can't believe olivia did this for you.

A hookup with an editor from "elle"...

She is so generous.

I didn't even ask her.

She just walked up to me in the lobby,

Handed me the woman's card, like that.

So amazing.

Tell him I-I won't do it.

Hey, what's that about?

You know that producer I'm waiting to hear from?

He loved my play.

That sounds great, right?

I wasn't finished. He loved the play,

But he wants me to change the ending

Or he's not interested,

Which means a major rewrite.

Brian, wait.

Are you gonna consider it?

I mean, you have to at least consider it, right?

You should listen to louise.

This is a great opportunity.

Sweetie, is it a big change?

Any change is a big change.

Uh, you don't understand what I have to go through.

I'm gonna go for a walk.

Brian.

It's two bedrooms, two baths.

The last tenant was here forever.

So we can finally get its true market value.

Spruce it up...

Top to bottom.

Uh, what happened to the... the previous tenant?

She was old.

Same thing that happens to all old people.

She moved to florida.

Thank you.

Did you ever meet Maris?

Uh, no. No, never, uh, never had the pleasure.

Wonderful woman. You would've loved her.

Maybe you can take out this wall.

Open up the kitchen...

And restore some of the old lighting fixtures.

But I'll leave all that...

Up to you.

Right. Sorry. I-I was just thinking,

It would be great if we could refinish the floors,

But that could be costly.

$200,000?

Work your magic.

So you decided to just...

Walk out of our lives?

Let us think you were dead?

Do you know how selfish that was?

I was mad

And driving reckless.

And I just...

Lost control.

The car exploded.

I was sitting on the side of the road

When it came to me that I could just...

Disappear...

And all my problems would be gone.

Whose body is in the car?

Who... who did we bury?

My friend...

Maria.

She got trapped in the car.

I tried to get her out.

But I couldn't.

Look, I am not proud of what I've done.

But I do know one thing,

That all of the decisions that I have made

Have led me here,

Back to you.

I'm sorry...

Mom.

Why, Sasha?

I still don't understand why you left.

I found out about the drake

And the kind of man that dad really was.

And I was confused

And scared.

And I just wanted to hurt dad.

I wanted to hurt you both.

I'm sorry.

Well, you're back.

We have a chance to start over.

I should get writing.

Did you always want to be a writer?

Yeah.

It's impressive you never gave up.

Most people just fold, cash out,

Move on to the next game.

Good for you.

This is just an arrangement.

An understanding.

Nothing more.

You... You get that, right?

I was just making conversation.

It won't happen again.

I'm sorry. That...

That was a terrible thing to say.

I just...

I'm sorry.

What about you?

What was your dream?

I'm here about the apartment.

Sure. Uh, it's $10,000 a month,

And I'm gonna need first, last, and a security deposit.
