it was just all talk.

I never believed in any way that he was

involved in her so-called accident.

Accident?

Okay, okay, okay. The story is that she hit her head

on the bathtub.

Sam, baby.

And Dr. Kaplan came and he tried to revive

her.

That's where he found her. I never knew the details.

Nobody did.

But your aunt, Patricia,

she was sure that it was your father did it.

- The cremation was quick.

- She was cremated?

Yeah, it was a quick viewing and the cremation.

- I guess you didn't know that.

- No, I did not know that.

Look, where can I find Dr. Kaplan?

Woh, last I heard he was in a nursing home...

with dementia.

Sam... Sam! Hey Sam!

But wait. Wouldn't the doctor know the truth?

I mean wouldn't he know if there were foul play?

Sam, Dr. Kaplan pronounced her dead in the bathtub.

I mean this man was the coroner in this town for 30 years,

well respected...

and he was absolutely sure that your mom

had been dead quite a while.

- And?

- And Jack was drunk all the time.

He was drunk that night.

So really, nobody knows what the hell happened.

- She died in the bathtub?

- Yes.

No... no, I remember...

My mother was in bed when she died.

When the dictor said she was gone, she was in bed.

- I may have been young, but I remember...

- No, no, no, you're wrong.

You don't know anything about that night.

I'm telling you.

You don't.

Jack?

Thought I heard you come in.

I made dinner for you, I was kind of hoping

that you will come home.

I had dinner with my boss and his

family tonight. Hey, are the windows secure?

I'll check for you. Boss?

I didn't know you had a job here.

Yeah. I work for Lucas Drake.

Lucas Drake?

Competitor, our enemy.

Oh, sweetie, my God, that thief!

He... he's a fraud, he even ran for Senator.

I mean you sold the funeral firm more than ten years

ago and I needed a job.

Huh... sure. Sure.

Of course, honey.

Really pretty pajamas.

I was just worried about you.

You know, being out in the dark, so late.

Yeah, I'm tired and I want to go to bed.

- Good night, baby.

- Good night.

Sleep tight.

Love you.

Hey? Hey!

- Hello, can I help you?

- Yeah, we gonna see Mr. Drake.

- He knows we are coming.

- I'm sorry. What are your names?

Good morning, I'm Benny Dawson.

This is my nephew, Liam, and you are?

- I'm Samantha.

- Samantha. It's nice to meet you.

- I'll let Mr. Drake know that you're here.

- You do that. He's expecting us.

Gentlemen. Good morning.

And good morning to you.

Who's driving? I'm not driving.

- I'm going for lunch.

- Oh, er... you have an appointment with the Rodrigues family in 20 minutes.

- You handle it. Okay?

I apologise if we upset your schedule too much.
