Dangerous Lies

- You're late again, Charlie. - Sorry, Dwight. It was my alarm.

Last time. I mean it. Katie!

If you want to be the busboy, you have to be on time. Your hear me?

Here you go.

Hey?

Sleeping Beauty.

Sorry.

It's all right.

Rough day?

Yeah.

What are you studying?

Nothing. Just contemporary sociological theory and empirical corporate analysis.

Sounds like fun.

You know, when it comes to corporate empirical analysis,

the jokes just kinda write themselves.

That's what you'd think.

Can I get you anything else?

Adam.

Honey.

- No. - My break's over.

- No. - Yes.

- No. - Come on.

- No! - Dwight's gonna come looking for me.

- You gotta stop working nights. - I know.

It's all they've got.

We just have to keep our heads above water until you finish school.

It's not exactly what I had in mind when we got married.

We made it this far. Right?

We just have to see it through.

Once you graduate school, find a great job,

I'll go back to grad school.

And I can support you in a manner in which you deserve.

You'd better.

How did I get so lucky?

I love you.

I love you too.

Okay, let's go. Dwight's gonna pitch a fit.

- All right. - Out the door.

I'm going.

Come on, you.

- Where's the rest of it? - There is no more money.

- You have all the money. - Give me the goddamned money!

Shut the hell up!

Shut up or you're dead people!

- Don't mess with me! - I got nothing else!

I'm gonna put a cap in your ass old man! Do not mess with me!

- Don't shoot somebody else. - Yeah, well she's next!

- Please, we don't need trouble. - Want me to do it?

I'll do it right now! I'll do you all. Right now!

- Nobody else gotta get hurt. - Then give me the money man!

You don't have to hurt anybody else. Take the money.

- Hey, I told you. Shut up! - There is no more money!

Shut up!

I'm done with you, you hear me?

- I'm done with both of you! - I'm begging you!

- Better pray old man! - Give him all the money!

I'll do it right now! You hear me? Do not mess with me old man!

A customer is being called a hero

after preventing a robbery at the Smile Diner

in South Chicago on Saturday night.

While the good Samaritan is uninjured,

busboy Charles Sturley was shot and died at the scene.

Raymond Gaskin has been charged and is now in custody at Chicago Memorial,

recovering from wounds sustained in the fight.

Smile Diner remains closed at this time.

In other news, the culprits of the diamond heist that occurred...

Morning, Leonard.

No new message.

Thank you, Katie.

My father planted that tree on the day I was born,

eighty-eight years ago.

It's beautiful.

When I was a boy,

people would say my mother had a green thumb.

Our garden was quite the show place.

Look at it now.

I hired a fellow once to clean it up.

This was a couple of years ago.

Nice young man.

Ethan something, I think.

What happened to him?

I don't know.

He worked for a few weeks and then stopped coming.

Never saw him again.

Listen to me!

- I sound like some silly old man. - No!

And today is our anniversary.

- What? - Yes. Four months ago today,

the agency sent you to my door,

my new caretaker, companion, and friend.

And friend.

Come on.

It's time to take your medication.

They're gonna schedule the last round of interviews in a couple weeks.

Couple of weeks?

It's a big company. Gotta jump through a lot of hoops.

But... that kind of job, you know, they have their own way of doing things.

- I can't really push them. - No, I know, I'm just...

I'm a little stressed right now.

You got another call from the student loan people today.

God, they never quit.

Well, you stopped taking classes so we have to start paying off the loans.

Otherwise, they'll turn it over to a collection agency.

- I know, yeah, I'm gonna call tomorrow. - Great. And maybe you can call

the credit card people while you're at it too.

And the rep with our health insurance.

Okay, Katie, I get it. I'll figure something out, all right?

Don't worry.

I'm gonna get started on the dishes.

- Katie. - Don't tell me not to worry.

I'm sorry.

We're in serious trouble, Adam.

- We need to get some money coming in soon. - I'll find something.

You've been saying that for months.

It doesn't do us any good for me to take some minimum wage job.

That's why I quit school, so that I can find something that pays enough.

We can start chipping away at our debt. I just need a little bit more time.

We don't have any more time, Adam.

- Here, let me help you. - No, it's fine. I've got it.

I've got it, Adam. Adam!

I'll clean it up.

Why don't you ever listen to me?

Why did you go in there?

I begged you, Adam.

He could have killed you.

I could have lost you. Can you imagine how that would have felt?

Never...

holding you again, never hearing your voice.

Nothing's right anymore.

Babe, it's been four months.

No.

No, I'm sorry. It's... No.

Where are you going?

Out.

Who's there?

Leonard.

Oh, it's you.

Katie.

- What are you doing out here? - I thought you were asleep.

I just... came here to think.

What are you doing with that?

I thought I heard someone in the house again.

- Again? - I hear them walking

and when I come down, they're always gone.

There's no one in the house.

Here.

Are you all right?

Why didn't you tell me you had troubles with money?

Oh, it's... not your problem.

- How much do you need? - Leonard, no.

We're friends, aren't we?

We are.

Well, then let me help you.

- I've got a little money set aside. - I could never do that.

A young couple starting out.

The world is complicated enough. You shouldn't have to worry about money.

It comes with the territory.

But to be in love,

maybe have a family one day, grow old together.

These are wonderful things.

Things I wanted when I was a young man.

And it would be nice to think, that in some small way,

I made a difference to someone.

Maybe to you and your young man.

He needs a job.

I'll tell Leonard you're here.

It'll be fine.

Just talk to him.

Okay.

Lorazepam, point five milligrams.

Yes.

I can pick it up after five probably...

Local tycoons who built it...

Thank you. Bye.

...so they could get their family away from the smell of the stock yards.

But their children grew up and...

- Hi, how are you doing? - Hi.

So sorry to bother you. My name is Mickey Hayden.

Real estate agent.

Believe me, I know how this is gonna sound, okay,

but I have this new client, just got transferred to the city for work.

He's got a big family, couple of dogs, the whole nine yards.

It's adorable. Anyway, he's looking for just the right home.

And yesterday, he was driving through the neighborhood here,

took one look at this amazing house...

Oh, this house isn't for sale.
