Lie to Me
All S1

S1 E15Unfinished Business

But we can't actually charge him with depraved heart. We'd have to be able to prove he knew those women were gonna commit suicide.

He knew. When he asked how he could have known those women were gonna jump, his eyebrows went up. Eyebrows up means you know the answer to your own question.

His eyebrows went up? Did he also click his heels three times? That's not evidence. We need evidence.

(Vital information on a case is leaked to the SEC. Gillian suspects Eli of leaking it.)

It was very convenient for you.

Why would I lie about this, Gillian? This job means everything to me. You think I wanna lose it?

You're deflecting. Did you leak it?

Of course not.

Okay. (she walks back to her desk)

'Okay,' you believe me or 'okay' I'm not showing any signs of lying?

(without looking at him) Get back to work.

(Eli calls Ria into an empty room.)

Yeah, what is it?

It's about the case I'm working on with Foster.

I heard the Feds found out about the daughter.

I called Justice and told them about Carolyn Holland.

What? No, no, no. No, no, no. You're not telling me this. (Eli nods) You lied to Foster? You stopped those people from getting their money back, their retirements?

We cannot let people like Carolyn Holland get away with this.

Are you out of your mind?! Why did you tell me this?

(looking away) I had to tell somebody.

Why me?

I don't trust anybody else.

You shouldn't trust me, either. They didn't catch you?

I took a sedative to relax my face. And I know--

I don't believe this. You gotta tell them. It's the only chance you have of not getting fired.

What? No! They won't find out.

(leans in to stress) Lightmen will.

(They look at each other for a few seconds before Ria walks out and leaves Eli alone in the room.)

(hold up the film of Louise Mason) Hey, you saw this earlier, right?

The psych patient?

Yeah.

Yeah, just for a second.

Yeah.

(Cal walks into his inner room in his office. Ria follows him.)

Did you see the agony she was hiding?

Yeah. I'm sorry.

Never be sorry for something you see.

(she moves closer to Cal) Did you know her well? (she looks at his face) She wasn't a patient, was she? She was something... more. Who was she?

(Cal pushes her away from him without saying a word. They look at each other for a few seconds.)

Get some sleep, all right?

(She nods and leaves.)

(Cal has set up the projector and the film of Louise Mason up in Emily's room.)

I want to show you something.

(Emily sits down in a chair while Cal starts the projector.)

Oh, where's the popcorn?

(Cal sits down beside her.)

What is this?

(The film begins to play.)

(finally understanding, she leans forward in her seat) Is it Grandma?

(staring at the film sadly) Yeah, yeah, it is.

(looking from the images on the wall to her father) You've never shown this to me before.

No. (he finally looks at Emily) There's something I want to tell you, Em.

(Emily looks at his face, then to the film, beginning to understand, while Cal continues to look at Emily.)

(Lots of people are shouting at each other. Suddenly feedback from a megaphone pierces the area.)

KWKevin Warren

What the hell is that?

(talking into the megaphone) Hello? Is this thing on?

KWKevin Warren

Who the hell are you?

I've got an early meeting tomorrow that I need you and Loker to take on your own.

Did you find Dr. Lightman?

FEMA confirmed he's at the disaster site. I'm heading out there now while there's still one or two people he hasn't had time to alienate. (She walks off)

Better drive fast.

Long and short is, I'm about to ask my girlfriend, Nadia, to marry me.

Oh, Mazel Tov. It's a good thing you're starting young. It took my dad five times to get it right. Affair, alcohol, green card problems... affair.

(Eli and Ria turn down a client's offer for a job.)

But, thanks for coming in. Your website is incredibly useful for reconnecting with girls who rejected me in middle school.

(Loker looks at the amount on the check and his jaw drops.)

That's the microexpression for 'holy crap.'

KWKevin Warren

My men need engineers and rescue workers, not a couple of freakshow shrinks pointing fingers.

(pointing to Gillian standing next to him) She's the shrink, I'm the freakshow. I'm sorry. We normally wear labels.

(Cal and Gillian provoke a response from someone they are interviewing by staging an argument which culminates in Gillian slapping Cal across the face. Later, as they're walking away...)

You almost didn't sell it. I'm going to have to hit you harder next time.

You know, you take a little bit too much pleasure in that one.

(Gillian smiles.)

(Gillian's phone rings.)

(to Cal) It's Loker. Give me a second. (talking on the phone) Yeah? Take it. Yeah. Yeah. (hangs up)

What was that, a job?

Want to tell me what it is?

(shakes her head 'no') I don't need your permission to take on a case.

That depends on the case, doesn't it, really?

(strongly) It'll be fine. I promise.

That usually means I'm getting screwed.

Usually.
