00:00:07,485 --> 00:00:10,314
Joan Collins
is not a man in drag.

00:00:10,401 --> 00:00:11,576
How do you know?
3
00:00:11,663 --> 00:00:13,056
You believe everything
you hear.
4
00:00:13,143 --> 00:00:15,493
- I do not.
- What don't you believe?
5
00:00:15,580 --> 00:00:19,454
I don't believe Pop Rocks and
Coke makes your stomach explode.
6
00:00:19,541 --> 00:00:21,760
I don't believe Rock Hudson
has liver cancer.
7
00:00:21,847 --> 00:00:24,372
Face it, honey,
you're gullible.
8
00:00:24,459 --> 00:00:26,069
And a conspiracy nut.
9
00:00:26,156 --> 00:00:28,028
Sticks and stones..
10
00:00:30,813 --> 00:00:32,119
Who killed Kennedy?
11
00:00:34,338 --> 00:00:37,341
Lyndon Johnson
and Fidel Castro.
12
00:00:38,821 --> 00:00:41,171

00:00:41,258 --> 00:00:43,913

Ah, Detective Rush?
32
00:02:05,299 --> 00:02:07,562
I'm Artie Russo. I called.
33
00:02:07,649 --> 00:02:10,130
Oh, have a seat.
34
00:02:10,217 --> 00:02:13,481
Scotty?
Artie Russo.
35
00:02:16,179 --> 00:02:18,181
I'm an AIDS survivor.
36
00:02:18,268 --> 00:02:21,576
I was supposed to be
dead 20 years ago.
37
00:02:21,663 --> 00:02:22,620
Lucky, huh.
38
00:02:22,707 --> 00:02:24,666
I got into an early drug trial.
39
00:02:24,753 --> 00:02:27,190
I was, uh, diagnosed
in 1983
40
00:02:27,277 --> 00:02:29,061
given six months.
41
00:02:29,149 --> 00:02:32,630
Instead, my partner Jeff
was dead in six months.
42
00:02:32,717 --> 00:02:33,979
From AIDS?
43
00:02:34,066 --> 00:02:35,633
Murdered in
Rittenhouse Square.
44
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,026
Strangled.
45
00:02:37,113 --> 00:02:38,288
Were there any suspects?
46
00:02:38,375 --> 00:02:40,116
Yeah. Me.
47
00:02:41,161 --> 00:02:42,118
What was the theory?
48
00:02:42,205 --> 00:02:43,293
That I killed the love
49
00:02:43,380 --> 00:02:44,381
of my life in a rage
50
00:02:44,468 --> 00:02:45,426
because he gave me AIDS.
51
00:02:45,513 --> 00:02:47,645
- Did he?
- No one knows.
52
00:02:47,732 --> 00:02:49,386
In '83 there was no test for it.
53
00:02:49,473 --> 00:02:51,214
You found out you had it
by getting sick.
54
00:02:51,301 --> 00:02:53,173
And, Jeff never did?
55
00:02:53,260 --> 00:02:54,826
No.
56
00:02:54,913 --> 00:02:56,567
'The strange thing is'
57
00:02:56,654 --> 00:02:59,309
I accepted my death coming.
58
00:02:59,396 --> 00:03:01,137
It was Jeff who was in a rage.
59
00:03:01,224 --> 00:03:02,965
Over what?
60
00:03:03,052 --> 00:03:06,316
The dying of the light,
as he put it.
61
00:03:06,403 --> 00:03:09,406
He rage against anything
besides the light?
62
00:03:09,493 --> 00:03:12,366
Government, doctors,
the gay community
63
00:03:12,453 --> 00:03:14,498
the newspapers,
the President.
64
00:03:14,585 --> 00:03:15,673
That's a long list.
65
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,154
And 20 years is a long time.
66
00:03:18,241 --> 00:03:19,677
What brings you in now?
67
00:03:19,764 --> 00:03:20,809
I'm getting married
68
00:03:20,896 --> 00:03:22,637
to my partner of ten years.
69
00:03:24,073 --> 00:03:26,902
But before I do
70
00:03:26,989 --> 00:03:30,993
I want to put an end to any
doubt that I loved Jeff.
71
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,301
You want us to re-open
a cold job for your wedding?
72
00:03:34,388 --> 00:03:36,564
It'd be a nice gift.
73
00:03:36,651 --> 00:03:39,262
This ain't Pottery Barn.
74
00:03:39,349 --> 00:03:42,352
The gift I want is justice.
75
00:03:42,439 --> 00:03:43,440
'We'll read
the job again.'
76
00:03:43,527 --> 00:03:46,835
Maybe um, we'll beat the odds.
77
00:03:46,922 --> 00:03:48,489
Like you did.
78
00:03:48,576 --> 00:03:49,881
Thank you.
79
00:04:23,350 --> 00:04:25,395
When did you first hear?
80
00:04:25,482 --> 00:04:27,484
About AIDS, um..
81
00:04:27,571 --> 00:04:28,833
I guess high school.
82
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,619
I got the talk from
a nun at St. Franny's.
83
00:04:31,706 --> 00:04:33,098
That's something
you don't forget.
84
00:04:35,405 --> 00:04:38,452
Oh, here it is.
Kern, Jeffrey.
85
00:04:38,539 --> 00:04:40,149
When brother Donnelly
died of it..
86
00:04:41,237 --> 00:04:42,760
...it really hit home.
87
00:04:44,458 --> 00:04:47,461
Jeff was 25 in 1983.
88
00:04:47,548 --> 00:04:49,027
Unlucky timing for a gay man.
89
00:04:49,114 --> 00:04:51,639
No warning
what was out there.
90
00:04:51,726 --> 00:04:53,467
Take it upstairs?
91
00:04:58,559 --> 00:05:00,517
Hit with a rock, strangled.
92
00:05:00,604 --> 00:05:02,171
From the front.
Bare hands.
93
00:05:02,258 --> 00:05:03,433
Sounds personal.
94
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:04,739
No robbery, either.
95
00:05:04,826 --> 00:05:06,741
Lab didn't get much
blood to test.
96
00:05:06,828 --> 00:05:08,525
Maybe they were scared
to collect it.
97
00:05:08,612 --> 00:05:10,310
Guys on the scene
knew he was gay?
98
00:05:10,397 --> 00:05:11,659
Earring in his right ear.
99
00:05:11,746 --> 00:05:13,487
You know, lot of unknowns
about AIDS in '83.
100
00:05:13,574 --> 00:05:14,836
Nicky's probably right.
101
00:05:14,923 --> 00:05:15,967
All we have are
a few blood stains
102
00:05:16,054 --> 00:05:17,099
on Jeff's shirt.
103
00:05:17,186 --> 00:05:18,579
Never analyzed.
104
00:05:18,666 --> 00:05:19,710
Well, the lab will know
how to deal with it now
105
00:05:19,797 --> 00:05:21,146
if your victim fought back.
106
00:05:21,233 --> 00:05:22,496
Might be the killer's blood.
107
00:05:22,583 --> 00:05:24,062
Anything else to go on?
108
00:05:24,149 --> 00:05:26,500
You ever hear of the
Benjamin Kern Foundation?
109
00:05:26,587 --> 00:05:30,112
I heard of the Kern Building.
Cool. Big fountain out front.
110
00:05:30,199 --> 00:05:31,983
This is Jeffrey Kern.
111
00:05:32,070 --> 00:05:33,507
The victim was rich.
112
00:05:33,594 --> 00:05:35,030
Might be significant.
113
00:05:35,117 --> 00:05:36,814
Who stood to gain
from Jeff dying?
114
00:05:36,901 --> 00:05:37,989
You got any siblings, Scotty?
115
00:05:38,076 --> 00:05:40,035
Ah, yeah, a brother.
116
00:05:40,122 --> 00:05:41,428
Oh, you got that
117
00:05:41,515 --> 00:05:43,038
and you got the blood.
118
00:05:43,125 --> 00:05:44,735
So where's that cool building?
119
00:05:47,042 --> 00:05:48,652
'Is your dad able to join us?'
120
00:05:48,739 --> 00:05:51,612
He's able, but unwilling.
121
00:05:51,699 --> 00:05:53,004
Got a lot of art.
122
00:05:53,091 --> 00:05:54,702
Beats our wanted posters.
123
00:05:54,789 --> 00:05:59,054
I'd like a wanted poster
with my brother's killer on it.
124
00:05:59,141 --> 00:06:01,099
Never bought Artie as the doer?
125
00:06:01,186 --> 00:06:03,014
No.
126
00:06:03,101 --> 00:06:05,147
And I don't think the cops
knocked themselves out
127
00:06:05,234 --> 00:06:08,106
trying to find the killer
of this low-status, gay kid.
128
00:06:08,193 --> 00:06:09,847
His family was high status.
129
00:06:09,934 --> 00:06:10,892
'Fear of AIDS'
130
00:06:10,979 --> 00:06:12,937
trumped everything in '83.
131
00:06:13,024 --> 00:06:14,548
'The paramedics
left Jeff's body'
132
00:06:14,635 --> 00:06:16,245
in the rain for three hours
133
00:06:16,332 --> 00:06:18,029
'cause they didn't
want to touch him.
134
00:06:18,116 --> 00:06:19,857
Jeff being from
this flush family
135
00:06:19,944 --> 00:06:22,294
kind of makes us look
at money as motive.
136
00:06:22,382 --> 00:06:23,861
He didn't have any money.
137
00:06:23,948 --> 00:06:26,603
My dad disinherited him
a year before he died.
138
00:06:26,690 --> 00:06:28,475
Because he was gay?
139
00:06:28,562 --> 00:06:29,911
Dad couldn't accept it.
140
00:06:29,998 --> 00:06:31,129
'So Jeff being cut off'
141
00:06:31,216 --> 00:06:33,262
then dying left you sole heir
142
00:06:33,349 --> 00:06:35,003
to the family fortune.
143
00:06:35,090 --> 00:06:36,657
I didn't profit from his death.
144
00:06:36,744 --> 00:06:37,875
His half of all that money?
145
00:06:37,962 --> 00:06:39,660
Goes to three charities.
146
00:06:39,747 --> 00:06:42,663
I convinced my dad
to do that much.
147
00:06:42,750 --> 00:06:44,055
You were close
to your brother?
148
00:06:44,142 --> 00:06:46,275
He made me crazy
149
00:06:46,362 --> 00:06:49,887
but he was the kind of guy
you just love anyway.
150
00:06:49,974 --> 00:06:52,324
'My dad adored
him too.'
151
00:06:52,412 --> 00:06:56,633
But their relationship
ended at my engagement party.
152
00:06:58,592 --> 00:07:01,333
- You came.
- I wouldn't miss it.
153
00:07:01,421 --> 00:07:03,423
You're brave.
154
00:07:06,861 --> 00:07:08,471
Look who's here.
155
00:07:08,558 --> 00:07:09,907
I'm so glad.
156
00:07:09,994 --> 00:07:11,996
Congratulations, Ellen.
157
00:07:12,083 --> 00:07:13,998
- 'Where is he?'
- Walking over here.
158
00:07:22,267 --> 00:07:23,660
Do you have
to do this, Jeffrey?
159
00:07:23,747 --> 00:07:25,532
There's the perfect
Kern manners.
160
00:07:25,619 --> 00:07:26,968
Are you making
some kind of point?
161
00:07:27,055 --> 00:07:28,448
I'm attending a family event
162
00:07:28,535 --> 00:07:30,537
with Artie who's part
of my family.
163
00:07:30,624 --> 00:07:33,365
Nice to see you again.
164
00:07:33,453 --> 00:07:34,932
If you want to flaunt
your lifestyle
165
00:07:35,019 --> 00:07:36,673
there's a time, a place.
166
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,545
- When? Where?
- Not at Paul's party.
167
00:07:38,632 --> 00:07:40,329
We don't mind.
168
00:07:42,679 --> 00:07:46,814
I don't want this for you.
169
00:07:46,901 --> 00:07:48,380
If Artie can't stay,
I can't either.

After that, my dad acted

178
00:08:18,062 --> 00:08:19,716
So what'd Jeff do for money?
179
00:08:19,803 --> 00:08:22,240
Worked as a towel boy
at a bathhouse.
180
00:08:22,327 --> 00:08:23,851
To really stick it to Dad.
181
00:08:23,938 --> 00:08:25,287
Didn't last too long, though.
182
00:08:25,374 --> 00:08:27,289
- What happened?
- There was some trouble there.

I...I never knew
the whole story.
184
00:08:29,639 --> 00:08:31,249
Would Artie know the details?
185
00:08:31,336 --> 00:08:32,860
Yeah, probably.
186
00:08:35,471 --> 00:08:38,126
Jeff was supposed to be passing
out towels in that place
187
00:08:38,213 --> 00:08:41,564
instead, he was, uh,
posting warning signs.
188
00:08:41,651 --> 00:08:43,044
About AIDS?
189
00:08:43,131 --> 00:08:44,524
Well that must've gone
over big with the owner.
190
00:08:46,264 --> 00:08:47,875
Artie, they need an answer.
191
00:08:47,962 --> 00:08:49,877
The white chair covers
or the light blue?
192
00:08:49,964 --> 00:08:51,313
Uh, this is Russ.
193
00:08:52,444 --> 00:08:53,533
What do you think?
194
00:08:55,839 --> 00:08:58,189
White goes with a wedding.
195
00:08:59,582 --> 00:09:00,714
I like white, too.
196
00:09:03,281 --> 00:09:06,633
So was Jeff trying
to shut this bathhouse down?
197
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:07,677
Basically.
198
00:09:07,764 --> 00:09:09,070
He have any success?
199
00:09:09,157 --> 00:09:11,072
The fire was pretty effective.
200
00:09:11,159 --> 00:09:12,595
What he burned the place?
201
00:09:12,682 --> 00:09:15,337
He never admitted it, but..
202
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,435
- You could have killed people.
- You're killing people.
203
00:09:26,522 --> 00:09:27,784
This place is a hotbed
of disease.
204
00:09:27,871 --> 00:09:29,481
No one knows how it's spread.
205
00:09:29,569 --> 00:09:31,658
Whoever set this fire
did a public service.
206
00:09:31,745 --> 00:09:33,485
"Whoever", I like that.
207
00:09:33,573 --> 00:09:36,445
- Jeff, what's going on?
- This is my boss, Barney.
208
00:09:36,532 --> 00:09:39,013
- Who has no conscience.
- Let's go home, calm down.
209
00:09:39,100 --> 00:09:40,667
Hey, hey, hey, Jeff.
210
00:09:40,754 --> 00:09:41,755
How are we going to take
care of this, huh?
211
00:09:41,842 --> 00:09:43,670
I didn't do anything.
212
00:09:43,757 --> 00:09:45,497
- I'll have you locked up.
- Hey, let's be reasonable.
213
00:09:45,585 --> 00:09:47,195
Reasonable is you reaching
214
00:09:47,282 --> 00:09:49,719
into your dad's deep pockets
and compensating me.
215
00:09:49,806 --> 00:09:52,504
I don't have a dad anymore.
216
00:09:52,592 --> 00:09:54,202
- You seem rational.
- I am.
217
00:09:54,289 --> 00:09:56,552
Why don't you talk
to your lunatic boyfriend
218
00:09:56,639 --> 00:09:59,250
and stop him,
or I will!
219
00:10:03,298 --> 00:10:05,866
'You ever see Barney
again after that?'
220
00:10:05,953 --> 00:10:08,956
I only hoped he was content
with just firing Jeff
221
00:10:09,043 --> 00:10:11,393
'cause there wasn't
any money to give him.
222
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,091
You float the Barney theory
with detectives in '83?
223
00:10:14,178 --> 00:10:16,572
Gave 'em his name.
224
00:10:16,659 --> 00:10:17,747
Never heard back.
225
00:10:21,533 --> 00:10:24,754
'It was a terrible time.
Terrible.'
226
00:10:24,841 --> 00:10:27,975
'Okay, but through
all the terribleness'
227
00:10:28,062 --> 00:10:29,280
you were raking it in.
228
00:10:29,367 --> 00:10:31,935
Bathhouses were hot in the '80s.
229
00:10:32,022 --> 00:10:33,720
No one knew what
was coming down the pike.
230
00:10:33,807 --> 00:10:35,896
And you made
a couple mill a year.
231
00:10:35,983 --> 00:10:38,159
So you did your research.
232
00:10:38,246 --> 00:10:40,640
'And here comes
this towel boy Jeff'
233
00:10:40,727 --> 00:10:42,076
decides to save the world
234
00:10:42,163 --> 00:10:43,817
by shutting down your
booming business.
235
00:10:43,904 --> 00:10:46,123
It was the turning point,
anyway.
236
00:10:46,210 --> 00:10:48,212
Virus was making
the papers.
237
00:10:48,299 --> 00:10:50,345
AIDS shut down my bathhouse.
238
00:10:50,432 --> 00:10:52,042
But Jeff lit the match.
239
00:10:52,129 --> 00:10:54,915
- Kid was a hothead.
- You a hothead too?
240
00:10:55,002 --> 00:10:56,830
I can be.
241
00:10:56,917 --> 00:10:58,701
The insurance paid
for all my losses.
242
00:10:58,788 --> 00:11:00,834
And Jeff got out
of my sight for good.
243
00:11:00,921 --> 00:11:04,098
This Jeff sounds like he pissed
off every other person he met.
244
00:11:04,185 --> 00:11:05,316
Roughly.
245
00:11:05,403 --> 00:11:06,491
Anyone else around that place
246
00:11:06,578 --> 00:11:08,580
get into it with Jeff?
247
00:11:08,668 --> 00:11:11,627
There was someone
Jeff targeted in particular.
248
00:11:22,682 --> 00:11:23,900
Carlo, we got to talk.
249
00:11:23,987 --> 00:11:26,033
- Talk? No thanks.
- Five minutes.
250
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,644
I thought you said
you just wanted to talk.
251
00:11:30,951 --> 00:11:32,474
All that time you spend
in front of the mirror
252
00:11:32,561 --> 00:11:34,911
I know you've noticed this.
253
00:11:34,998 --> 00:11:36,913
- It's nothing.
- You're sick.
254
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:37,958
I'm fine.
255
00:11:38,045 --> 00:11:39,394
Did you tell that guy
256
00:11:39,481 --> 00:11:40,874
you just had sex with
that you have it?
257
00:11:40,961 --> 00:11:42,005
It's cancer
258
00:11:42,092 --> 00:11:43,964
and cancer's not contagious.
259
00:11:44,051 --> 00:11:46,401
You're purposely
giving it to people?
260
00:11:46,488 --> 00:11:48,795
- You're such a drama queen.
- What are you, a sociopath?
261
00:11:48,882 --> 00:11:54,235
I think you're still upset
that we stopped. You and me.
262
00:11:54,322 --> 00:11:58,195
Carlo, it kills people.
263
00:11:58,282 --> 00:12:00,197
Stay out of my way
264
00:12:00,284 --> 00:12:02,330
and I'll stay out of yours.
265
00:12:10,860 --> 00:12:13,341
Now, Carlo was the prettiest
of them all.
266
00:12:13,428 --> 00:12:15,604
'Literally got by
on his good looks.'
267
00:12:15,691 --> 00:12:18,694
Ah, I thought I saved this.
268
00:12:21,262 --> 00:12:23,525
Jeff made these.
269
00:12:23,612 --> 00:12:25,657
Handed them out
around Queens Village.
270
00:12:27,616 --> 00:12:28,878
I'm seeing a motive.
271
00:12:39,149 --> 00:12:41,151
"Carlo is spreading
the gay cancer
272
00:12:41,238 --> 00:12:44,154
to ten men a night
at Barney's."
273
00:12:44,241 --> 00:12:45,373
Ten a night?
274
00:12:45,460 --> 00:12:47,984
At that pace,
Carlo must be long dead.
275
00:12:48,071 --> 00:12:49,638
Need a last name
to find out.
276
00:12:49,725 --> 00:12:51,596
Barney didn't know it?
277
00:12:51,683 --> 00:12:54,643
Now, this Carlo said some
about when "we stopped."
278
00:12:54,730 --> 00:12:56,776
It sounded like him
and Jeff were together.
279
00:12:56,863 --> 00:12:58,299
Did Artie know that?
280
00:12:58,386 --> 00:13:00,910
And did Artie get
the bug from Jeff, who..
281
00:13:00,997 --> 00:13:02,564
...got it from Carlo?
282
00:13:02,651 --> 00:13:04,566
Sounds like the cops in '83
were on to something.
283
00:13:04,653 --> 00:13:06,698
Better go back
to the bride-to-be.
284
00:13:06,786 --> 00:13:09,919
No, I think, technically,
they're both grooms.
285
00:13:12,879 --> 00:13:15,185
I knew about
Jeff and Carlo.
286
00:13:15,272 --> 00:13:18,841
- And you didn't mind?
- I didn't like it.
287
00:13:18,928 --> 00:13:20,234
But?
288
00:13:20,321 --> 00:13:21,409
You're not gonna find
this palatable.
289
00:13:21,496 --> 00:13:24,107
Consider me warned.
290
00:13:24,194 --> 00:13:25,456
Most gay men
were living out
291
00:13:25,543 --> 00:13:27,328
what a lot
of straight men fantasize.
292
00:13:27,415 --> 00:13:28,633
Which is?
293
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,722
Spouse at home,
affairs on the side.
294
00:13:30,810 --> 00:13:32,028
That was our arrangement, too.
295
00:13:33,725 --> 00:13:36,293
Until I got sick.
296
00:13:36,380 --> 00:13:40,994
♪ Lying in my bed
I hear the clock tick ♪
297
00:13:41,081 --> 00:13:43,692
♪ And think of you ♪
298
00:13:43,779 --> 00:13:48,436
♪ Caught up in circles
confusion ♪
299
00:13:48,523 --> 00:13:50,177
How is he?
300
00:13:50,264 --> 00:13:51,787
He's the same.
301
00:13:53,310 --> 00:13:56,400
He's very brave.
302
00:13:56,487 --> 00:13:59,012
He's sleeping. If you could keep
your voices down.
303
00:13:59,099 --> 00:14:00,578
Sure.
304
00:14:02,406 --> 00:14:05,018
- Hey, Artie.
- Is it my birthday?
305
00:14:05,105 --> 00:14:08,064
It's a metaphor.
Every day is a celebration.
306
00:14:08,151 --> 00:14:11,024
Every day's gonna be
my birthday from now on?
307
00:14:11,111 --> 00:14:13,287
Yes.
308
00:14:13,374 --> 00:14:16,681
We'll be in a never-ending
production of"Our Town"
309
00:14:16,768 --> 00:14:20,816
treasuring every single
moment as we live it.
310
00:14:20,903 --> 00:14:22,557
That's right.
311
00:14:26,343 --> 00:14:27,823
Don't do that.
312
00:14:27,910 --> 00:14:29,694
Stay back.
Don't get this.
313
00:14:34,221 --> 00:14:36,440
I saw Carlo today.
314
00:14:36,527 --> 00:14:39,617
How is the Adonis
of Queens Village?
315
00:14:39,704 --> 00:14:42,533
He can't believe I only
want to be with you.
316
00:14:42,620 --> 00:14:44,840
Neither can I.
317
00:14:44,927 --> 00:14:48,539
Well, it's true.
318
00:14:52,543 --> 00:14:55,851
Jeff left Carlo for me.
319
00:14:55,938 --> 00:14:57,722
Who would've thought?
320
00:14:57,809 --> 00:15:00,160
Carlo getting dumped,
that must've been new to him.
321
00:15:00,247 --> 00:15:01,770
Brand-new.
322
00:15:01,857 --> 00:15:04,164
You think he was dangerous?
323
00:15:04,251 --> 00:15:08,516
I think he purposely infected
hundreds of men in this city.
324
00:15:08,603 --> 00:15:10,083
That's murder, isn't it?
325
00:15:11,998 --> 00:15:14,435
You know his last name?
326
00:15:14,522 --> 00:15:16,132
Fishman.
327
00:15:16,219 --> 00:15:17,829
First name is Melvin.
328
00:15:17,917 --> 00:15:20,397
Carlo is
Melvin Fishman?
329
00:15:20,484 --> 00:15:22,834
He's an Ohio boy.
330
00:15:22,922 --> 00:15:25,489
Reinvented himself when
he moved to the big city.
331
00:15:25,576 --> 00:15:27,056
He alive?
332
00:15:27,143 --> 00:15:30,364
Try South Philly.
333
00:15:30,451 --> 00:15:31,669
Now, how's a guy
like him make it
334
00:15:31,756 --> 00:15:35,543
when so many others don't?
335
00:15:35,630 --> 00:15:39,286
If God was punishing
people for their sins
336
00:15:39,373 --> 00:15:41,941
he had a badly researched list.
337
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,257
I was Melvin for 18 miserable
years in Shaker Heights.
338
00:15:54,344 --> 00:15:56,999
Here... I'm Carlo.
339
00:15:57,086 --> 00:16:00,307
Here, hold Louise.
340
00:16:00,394 --> 00:16:02,483
'Let's talk about
this homicide.'
341
00:16:02,570 --> 00:16:06,269
You want to know
if I murdered Jeff Kern? No.
342
00:16:06,356 --> 00:16:10,056
You had a reputation for playing
roulette with people's health.
343
00:16:10,143 --> 00:16:13,885
This just put me more in demand.
344
00:16:13,973 --> 00:16:17,977
I'm ugly now, and make
money cleaning bird cages
345
00:16:18,064 --> 00:16:20,196
but look at me there.
346
00:16:20,283 --> 00:16:22,111
I was gorgeous.
347
00:16:22,198 --> 00:16:25,462
Nobody cared about
the "he'll kill you" part?
348
00:16:25,549 --> 00:16:27,247
Jeff was seen as a hysteric
349
00:16:27,334 --> 00:16:29,684
like the lady who smashed up
liquor bottles with an axe.
350
00:16:29,771 --> 00:16:30,946
People laughed.
351
00:16:31,033 --> 00:16:32,600
So guys still wanted you?
352
00:16:32,687 --> 00:16:35,124
Jeff was the one who
ended up ostracized.
353
00:16:35,211 --> 00:16:38,345
Even though he was
right in the end.
354
00:16:38,432 --> 00:16:41,609
People don't know
how to act in an emergency.
355
00:16:41,696 --> 00:16:43,959
When AIDS hit the world..
356
00:16:44,046 --> 00:16:46,135
...most of us froze
in disbelief.
357
00:16:46,222 --> 00:16:49,921
- Not Jeff.
- No, he fought.
358
00:16:50,009 --> 00:16:52,620
In ways a lot more
stupid than this.
359
00:16:52,707 --> 00:16:54,709
Like?
360
00:16:54,796 --> 00:16:56,754
Jeff usually hid
his background.
361
00:16:56,841 --> 00:16:58,582
Now he decided to use it.
362
00:16:58,669 --> 00:16:59,670
How?
363
00:16:59,757 --> 00:17:01,194
A fundraising party
364
00:17:01,281 --> 00:17:03,631
for rich, closeted gay men
365
00:17:03,718 --> 00:17:05,546
who wanted to stay that way.
366
00:17:12,161 --> 00:17:14,859
Be sure not to
set off the alarm.
367
00:17:14,946 --> 00:17:16,426
Thanks for helping
me do this.
368
00:17:16,513 --> 00:17:19,734
- Don't tell dad.
- Are you kidding?
369
00:17:19,821 --> 00:17:20,952
You should call him.
370
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:22,389
He should call me.
371
00:17:25,566 --> 00:17:27,916
I'll be in the guest house.
372
00:17:28,003 --> 00:17:32,181
♪ I'm all out of hope ♪
373
00:17:32,268 --> 00:17:35,228
♪ One more bad dream ♪
374
00:17:35,315 --> 00:17:38,144
♪ Could bring a fall ♪
375
00:17:38,231 --> 00:17:41,234
Thirty-seven men have died
in Philadelphia
376
00:17:41,321 --> 00:17:43,975
425 in New York
377
00:17:44,063 --> 00:17:45,586
and the government
is ignoring it.
378
00:17:45,673 --> 00:17:48,502
Ronald Reagan?
Interfere with God's work?
379
00:17:48,589 --> 00:17:50,634
Everyone in this room
has money and clout
380
00:17:50,721 --> 00:17:53,072
so we're the ones
who have to do something.
381
00:17:53,159 --> 00:17:55,117
We could hire a lobbyist.
382
00:17:55,204 --> 00:17:56,249
A doctor, maybe.
383
00:17:56,336 --> 00:17:57,902
Giving money isn't enough.
384
00:17:57,989 --> 00:18:00,644
We have to put ourselves
on the line.
385
00:18:00,731 --> 00:18:03,386
- How do you mean?
- Come out.
386
00:18:03,473 --> 00:18:04,518
Make a joint statement.
387
00:18:04,605 --> 00:18:05,954
We're gay, we're powerful
388
00:18:06,041 --> 00:18:07,608
'and attention
must be paid.'
389
00:18:07,695 --> 00:18:10,393
Your father would love that.
390
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,482
My father will have
to handle it.
391
00:18:12,569 --> 00:18:14,093
If we came out
392
00:18:14,180 --> 00:18:17,008
we'd lose whatever
credibility we might have had.
393
00:18:17,096 --> 00:18:19,707
People are dying.
This is a crisis.
394
00:18:19,794 --> 00:18:21,535
Don't be an alarmist.
395
00:18:21,622 --> 00:18:24,407
There's no cure. No one's
even looking for a cure.
396
00:18:27,018 --> 00:18:30,021
This is a press release,
from everyone in this room.
397
00:18:30,109 --> 00:18:31,458
Are you crazy?
398
00:18:31,545 --> 00:18:33,677
I'm sending it out in a week.
399
00:18:33,764 --> 00:18:35,984
'I'd like your signatures'
400
00:18:36,071 --> 00:18:37,464
but I don't need them.
401
00:18:45,559 --> 00:18:47,387
Jeff was gonna break
the biggest taboo
402
00:18:47,474 --> 00:18:48,605
in the gay world.
403
00:18:48,692 --> 00:18:49,693
Outing.
404
00:18:49,780 --> 00:18:51,086
He had more guts
than brains
405
00:18:51,173 --> 00:18:52,827
threatening those men.
406
00:18:52,914 --> 00:18:55,525
So, who were these guys
who had everything to lose?
407
00:18:55,612 --> 00:18:57,223
You wantmeto out them?
408
00:18:57,310 --> 00:18:58,615
'For a homicide
investigation?'
409
00:18:58,702 --> 00:19:00,182
You bet.
410
00:19:02,184 --> 00:19:04,055
Screw 'em.
411
00:19:04,143 --> 00:19:06,623
What've they done for me lately?
412
00:19:06,710 --> 00:19:08,147
Right, Bobo?
413
00:19:10,366 --> 00:19:13,064
Got a pen?
414
00:19:13,152 --> 00:19:14,718
'Terrence Overton'
415
00:19:14,805 --> 00:19:16,720
president of East Line Bank.
416
00:19:16,807 --> 00:19:19,767
Christopher Duncan, chief
of staff to councilman byers.
417
00:19:19,854 --> 00:19:22,073
Byers. He's right
of Attila the Hun.
418
00:19:22,161 --> 00:19:23,553
Don't ask, don't tell.
419
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,076
Just hide in the log cabin.
420
00:19:25,164 --> 00:19:27,601
Chief of emergency medicine
at Penn General.
421
00:19:27,688 --> 00:19:29,255
Russell Bennet.
422
00:19:29,342 --> 00:19:30,560
Who's that?
423
00:19:32,649 --> 00:19:33,781
Russ.
424
00:19:34,869 --> 00:19:36,436
That's Artie's fiance.
425
00:19:41,745 --> 00:19:45,880
You were at Jeff's party
the week before he was murdered.
426
00:19:45,967 --> 00:19:49,144
- Yes.
- This is unbelievable.
427
00:19:49,231 --> 00:19:51,668
A lot of people in that room
had motive to kill Jeff.
428
00:19:51,755 --> 00:19:54,497
Not me. I've been out
since I was 16.
429
00:19:54,584 --> 00:19:56,107
How could you not tell me this?
430
00:19:56,195 --> 00:19:58,719
It's a time of my life
I'm embarrassed about.
431
00:19:58,806 --> 00:20:01,722
I was a drunk and an addict
who dated older men.
432
00:20:01,809 --> 00:20:03,114
I was there with one.
433
00:20:03,202 --> 00:20:05,639
He have a lot to lose
by being outed?
434
00:20:05,726 --> 00:20:07,467
Only everything.
435
00:20:07,554 --> 00:20:09,512
Who we talking about, Russ?
436
00:20:10,687 --> 00:20:11,819
You better tell them.
437
00:20:11,906 --> 00:20:13,734
You better tell them
every detail.
438
00:20:13,821 --> 00:20:15,083
Iwill.
439
00:20:16,780 --> 00:20:17,999
So?
440
00:20:19,130 --> 00:20:21,568
Carson Finch.
441
00:20:21,655 --> 00:20:24,440
Oh, this just
gets worse and worse.
442
00:20:24,527 --> 00:20:25,789
'Who's that?'
443
00:20:25,876 --> 00:20:27,443
A conservative columnist
for theTimes.
444
00:20:27,530 --> 00:20:29,619
It'd be like finding out
Pat Buchanan was gay.
445
00:20:29,706 --> 00:20:31,360
If I'd been sober
for five minutes
446
00:20:31,447 --> 00:20:34,102
while I was with him, I might
have realized he was the devil.
447
00:20:34,189 --> 00:20:37,061
You think Finch
could have hurt Jeff?
448
00:20:37,148 --> 00:20:39,325
I know he read him
the riot act after the party.
449
00:20:42,763 --> 00:20:44,591
Things don't get done
450
00:20:44,678 --> 00:20:47,333
when you rant and rave
and threaten.
451
00:20:47,420 --> 00:20:49,204
Things get done
quietly.
452
00:20:49,291 --> 00:20:51,641
We'll be dead.
That's quiet.
453
00:20:53,948 --> 00:20:55,254
Russell, I need five minutes.
454
00:20:59,519 --> 00:21:02,435
- Lovely family.
- They're okay.
455
00:21:02,522 --> 00:21:04,611
Powerful, too.
456
00:21:04,698 --> 00:21:06,003
I've never met
your father
457
00:21:06,090 --> 00:21:08,310
but I see his name
everywhere..
458
00:21:08,397 --> 00:21:11,139
...hospitals, libraries.
459
00:21:11,226 --> 00:21:13,359
He's a major donor
in Philadelphia.
460
00:21:13,446 --> 00:21:15,622
I know all that.
461
00:21:15,709 --> 00:21:17,276
You had some people
here tonight
462
00:21:17,363 --> 00:21:21,192
who could bring
his empire crashing down.
463
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,064
Now you're the one threatening.
464
00:21:23,151 --> 00:21:25,458
Just saying.
465
00:21:25,545 --> 00:21:29,026
Even the picturesque
Kern family has dirty secrets.
466
00:21:30,332 --> 00:21:33,596
I grew up here.
I know hardball.
467
00:21:36,643 --> 00:21:38,166
You don't..
468
00:21:38,253 --> 00:21:39,646
...want to play it..
469
00:21:39,733 --> 00:21:41,125
...with me.
470
00:21:49,917 --> 00:21:51,788
Satan himself.
471
00:21:51,875 --> 00:21:54,095
How far would Finch go?
472
00:21:54,182 --> 00:21:56,358
I thought he was content
eviscerating people in print
473
00:21:56,445 --> 00:21:57,968
but who knows?
474
00:22:07,238 --> 00:22:08,892
So is the wedding off?
475
00:22:08,979 --> 00:22:11,025
That's between them.
476
00:22:11,112 --> 00:22:13,114
Mine was honored off
three times.
477
00:22:13,201 --> 00:22:14,855
New police resource.
478
00:22:14,942 --> 00:22:16,683
Yeah? What?
479
00:22:16,770 --> 00:22:21,165
Half the guys on the party list
are now on the AIDS quilt.
480
00:22:21,252 --> 00:22:22,645
'Gone, huh?'
481
00:22:22,732 --> 00:22:23,864
Yeah.
482
00:22:23,951 --> 00:22:26,997
Ain't all Mary's.
Women, kids.
483
00:22:27,084 --> 00:22:30,914
IV drug users, and my niece
being one of 'em.
484
00:22:32,438 --> 00:22:33,743
Hmm.
485
00:22:33,830 --> 00:22:35,484
'Two panels for Jeff Kern.'
486
00:22:35,571 --> 00:22:38,357
One from Artie,
one from his brother.
487
00:22:40,750 --> 00:22:41,969
'Guess where Finch lives?'
488
00:22:43,492 --> 00:22:45,015
Rittenhouse Square.
489
00:22:45,102 --> 00:22:46,365
Near where Jeff ended up.
490
00:22:50,194 --> 00:22:51,413
Jeff Kern was lucky
491
00:22:51,500 --> 00:22:54,285
he lived through
the night of that party.
492
00:22:54,373 --> 00:22:55,896
Highball?
493
00:22:55,983 --> 00:22:58,115
We heard about the threats,
especially from you.
494
00:22:58,202 --> 00:22:59,726
I just warned him.
495
00:22:59,813 --> 00:23:01,641
You hurt me,
I'll hurt you.
496
00:23:01,728 --> 00:23:04,383
Like maybe with a rock
to the face?
497
00:23:04,470 --> 00:23:07,037
- That wasn't necessary.
- Why's that?
498
00:23:07,124 --> 00:23:09,692
Between my friend
at the East Line Bank and I
499
00:23:09,779 --> 00:23:13,043
we had plenty of dirt
on the magnificent Kern family.
500
00:23:13,130 --> 00:23:15,045
And that made Jeff back off?
501
00:23:15,132 --> 00:23:17,439
'Cause he doesn't seem
to be the backing off type.
502
00:23:17,526 --> 00:23:19,702
Who knows what
he would have done.
503
00:23:19,789 --> 00:23:21,922
Maybe he died
before he knew himself.
504
00:23:22,009 --> 00:23:23,793
Or maybe he died
so he couldn't put out
505
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:25,404
that press release.
506
00:23:25,491 --> 00:23:27,188
Maybe.
507
00:23:30,626 --> 00:23:35,501
But I fight
with words, not rocks.
508
00:23:35,588 --> 00:23:37,154
For what it's worth
509
00:23:37,241 --> 00:23:40,767
I never believed that Jeff
died at the hands of a gay man.
510
00:23:40,854 --> 00:23:43,552
Beating him with a rock?
511
00:23:43,639 --> 00:23:45,554
I'd look for a heterosexual.
512
00:23:45,641 --> 00:23:48,427
Got one in particular?
513
00:23:48,514 --> 00:23:50,777
Jeff found out I was gay
because we both had friends
514
00:23:50,864 --> 00:23:53,083
on the AIDS floor
at Penn General.
515
00:23:53,170 --> 00:23:55,172
I saw him there.
516
00:23:55,259 --> 00:23:56,739
Yeah, so?
517
00:23:56,826 --> 00:23:59,089
Artie shared a room
with a boy who had AIDS.
518
00:23:59,176 --> 00:24:02,092
The boy's father was..
519
00:24:02,179 --> 00:24:03,442
...rageful.
520
00:24:08,534 --> 00:24:10,797
Carson Finch?
521
00:24:10,884 --> 00:24:12,842
Jeff? Hello.
522
00:24:12,929 --> 00:24:14,104
Hi.
523
00:24:14,191 --> 00:24:15,236
Sick friend?
524
00:24:17,673 --> 00:24:22,069
♪ Time it needs time ♪
525
00:24:22,156 --> 00:24:23,897
♪ To win back your love again ♪
526
00:24:25,768 --> 00:24:27,248
Can I get you anything?
527
00:24:27,335 --> 00:24:29,119
Food?
528
00:24:29,206 --> 00:24:31,078
You can get me a cure.
529
00:24:31,165 --> 00:24:32,427
I know.
530
00:24:32,514 --> 00:24:33,602
He's dying.
531
00:24:37,867 --> 00:24:39,695
I'm sorry.
532
00:24:39,782 --> 00:24:41,871
Take your hand off me.
533
00:24:41,958 --> 00:24:43,960
Kenny got sick
because of people like you.
534
00:24:44,047 --> 00:24:46,093
- Excuse me?
- He is innocent.
535
00:24:46,180 --> 00:24:48,051
He should be helped
before your friend.
536
00:24:48,138 --> 00:24:50,924
I like to help everyone.
537
00:24:51,011 --> 00:24:53,056
He's eight. Please.
538
00:24:55,537 --> 00:24:58,235
I don't know
if I can help Artie.
539
00:24:58,322 --> 00:24:59,976
Damn you!
540
00:25:02,936 --> 00:25:04,067
'What happened?'
541
00:25:04,154 --> 00:25:05,939
Jeff walked away.
542
00:25:06,026 --> 00:25:08,898
Now, how did this guy think
Jeff could help his son?
543
00:25:08,985 --> 00:25:10,770
I don't know.
544
00:25:10,857 --> 00:25:12,511
'But he knew where
to find Jeff.'
545
00:25:14,077 --> 00:25:16,166
And I know hate when I see it.
546
00:25:25,524 --> 00:25:27,003
We gotta talk to you
about Jeff Kern
547
00:25:27,090 --> 00:25:29,179
'the guy you fought with
at the hospital.'
548
00:25:29,266 --> 00:25:31,530
I don't remember half of what
came out of my mouth that night.
549
00:25:31,617 --> 00:25:35,316
- You threatened him.
- Two weeks later he was killed.
550
00:25:35,403 --> 00:25:37,405
Not by me.
551
00:25:37,492 --> 00:25:39,059
I was angry, yeah.
552
00:25:39,146 --> 00:25:42,105
I thought Kenny got AIDS
from his second-grade teacher.
553
00:25:42,192 --> 00:25:43,933
Now I know it was
the transfusions he had..
554
00:25:44,020 --> 00:25:45,456
...skateboard accident.
555
00:25:45,544 --> 00:25:48,677
Why'd you target Jeff?
556
00:25:48,764 --> 00:25:51,114
It just seemed unfair.
557
00:25:51,201 --> 00:25:53,595
I mean, if there
was some miracle
558
00:25:53,682 --> 00:25:55,989
my kid should get it,
not the gay guy.
559
00:25:56,076 --> 00:25:58,861
What miracle do you mean?
560
00:25:58,948 --> 00:26:01,081
That guy, Jeff,
said he had a way
561
00:26:01,168 --> 00:26:03,083
to get his boyfriend
into a drug trial.
562
00:26:03,170 --> 00:26:05,085
- Maybe save him.
- How?
563
00:26:05,172 --> 00:26:07,914
I don't know, but, uh...they
kept arguing about it
564
00:26:08,001 --> 00:26:11,308
the sick guy saying "It's not
worth it. I accept my death."
565
00:26:11,395 --> 00:26:14,355
I'm thinkin', "You accept
your death? Great!"
566
00:26:14,442 --> 00:26:16,400
Give my kid the drug.
567
00:26:16,487 --> 00:26:19,229
How do you get access
to these drug trials?
568
00:26:19,316 --> 00:26:20,927
Connections, clout.
569
00:26:21,014 --> 00:26:23,538
Know a board member be a
major donor to the hospital.
570
00:26:23,625 --> 00:26:25,192
What hospital you talking about?
571
00:26:25,279 --> 00:26:26,846
Penn General.
572
00:26:26,933 --> 00:26:28,238
They do a lot of research there.
573
00:26:30,023 --> 00:26:32,025
Jeff's father is on
the board of directors
574
00:26:32,112 --> 00:26:33,548
for Pennsylvania General.
575
00:26:33,635 --> 00:26:35,681
Oh, that qualifies
as a major donor.
576
00:26:35,768 --> 00:26:37,073
Has been for years.
577
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:38,684
So Jeff needs Dad to save
578
00:26:38,771 --> 00:26:40,555
Artie's life, potentially.
579
00:26:40,642 --> 00:26:42,426
Only Jeff and Dad are estranged.
580
00:26:42,513 --> 00:26:44,777
But Jeff will do anything.
He and Artie are in love.
581
00:26:44,864 --> 00:26:46,779
Which is why dad will say no.
582
00:26:46,866 --> 00:26:48,476
'That writer, Finch'
583
00:26:48,563 --> 00:26:50,826
told Jeff he had something
that could ruin his dad.
584
00:26:50,913 --> 00:26:52,828
Maybe Jeff asked him
what the dirt was
585
00:26:52,915 --> 00:26:54,917
so he could
throw it at dad himself.
586
00:26:55,004 --> 00:26:57,528
We gotta talk to the old man,
whether he likes it or not.
587
00:26:57,616 --> 00:26:59,356
Do you think
a father would kill his son
588
00:26:59,443 --> 00:27:01,097
to save his business empire?
589
00:27:01,184 --> 00:27:02,969
'Why not?'
590
00:27:03,056 --> 00:27:05,232
Jeff was dead to him already.
591
00:27:21,161 --> 00:27:23,729
Did Jeff come to you for help
before he died, Mr. Kern?
592
00:27:23,816 --> 00:27:25,731
He called.
593
00:27:25,818 --> 00:27:27,950
Asked if we could meet.
594
00:27:28,037 --> 00:27:29,996
Said it was important.
595
00:27:30,083 --> 00:27:32,651
I made him beg.
596
00:27:32,738 --> 00:27:33,869
I was a jerk.
597
00:27:33,956 --> 00:27:35,131
Dad, don't say that.
598
00:27:35,218 --> 00:27:38,091
Sorry it offends you.
599
00:27:38,178 --> 00:27:40,006
Well, what happened
when you two met?
600
00:27:40,093 --> 00:27:41,703
We didn't.
601
00:27:41,790 --> 00:27:43,966
He was murdered
the night before.
602
00:27:44,053 --> 00:27:46,403
So you don't know
what he wanted to talk about?
603
00:27:46,490 --> 00:27:48,579
No, and I never will.
604
00:27:48,667 --> 00:27:51,104
I think Jeff wanted you to help
Artie get into the drug trial
605
00:27:51,191 --> 00:27:52,148
'at Penn General.'
606
00:27:52,235 --> 00:27:55,543
Yes. You've told me.
607
00:27:55,630 --> 00:27:56,718
What would you have said?
608
00:27:56,805 --> 00:27:58,677
I would have said no.
609
00:27:58,764 --> 00:28:00,853
But Artie got
into that trial.
610
00:28:00,940 --> 00:28:02,637
Yes.
611
00:28:02,724 --> 00:28:05,031
After Jeff died, I made sure
612
00:28:05,118 --> 00:28:07,468
'his "friend"'
613
00:28:07,555 --> 00:28:10,166
got a place.
614
00:28:10,253 --> 00:28:11,298
Strange logic.
615
00:28:11,385 --> 00:28:12,952
Well, maybe it was guilt
616
00:28:13,039 --> 00:28:15,345
for something
you did, Mr. Kern?
617
00:28:15,432 --> 00:28:18,653
You have something
to say to me, say it.
618
00:28:18,740 --> 00:28:21,438
Be a man.
619
00:28:21,525 --> 00:28:23,789
Carson Finch had dirt
on your family.
620
00:28:23,876 --> 00:28:25,573
Finch is a dilettante.
621
00:28:25,660 --> 00:28:27,967
Jeff knew what it was, and
was gonna use it against you.
622
00:28:28,054 --> 00:28:30,709
You've got fire, huh?
623
00:28:30,796 --> 00:28:34,843
Just like Jeff did.
624
00:28:34,930 --> 00:28:38,238
What did Finch tell him?
What did he hold over you?
625
00:28:38,325 --> 00:28:42,938
Oh, what could be worse than
what Jeffrey flaunted every day?
626
00:28:43,025 --> 00:28:44,418
- Dad.
- It was unnatural.
627
00:28:44,505 --> 00:28:45,549
Let's not go into that.
628
00:28:45,636 --> 00:28:47,813
Only thing more unnatural
629
00:28:47,900 --> 00:28:50,337
is for a father to bury his son.
630
00:28:53,253 --> 00:28:57,431
Hearing of his death
was the worst day of my life.
631
00:28:59,868 --> 00:29:03,393
- You should go now.
- Yes, go.
632
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,004
You getting Artie
into that trial
633
00:29:05,091 --> 00:29:07,354
'may have saved his life.'
634
00:29:07,441 --> 00:29:09,573
Furthest thing from my mind.
635
00:29:09,660 --> 00:29:12,489
I don't believe you, Mr. Kern.
636
00:29:12,576 --> 00:29:14,143
I think you loved Jeff.
637
00:29:15,884 --> 00:29:18,278
Well..
638
00:29:19,758 --> 00:29:21,760
He was always my favorite.
639
00:29:24,371 --> 00:29:26,460
They both are.
640
00:29:30,551 --> 00:29:32,945
You really think Jeff
would blackmail his own father?
641
00:29:33,032 --> 00:29:35,338
He wasn't shy
about confrontation.
642
00:29:35,425 --> 00:29:37,863
I suppose that's true.
He was a chip off the old block.
643
00:29:37,950 --> 00:29:39,603
You told him you had
something on his family.
644
00:29:39,690 --> 00:29:42,650
- We need to know what it was.
- That's water under the bridge.
645
00:29:42,737 --> 00:29:43,956
'Something
on the foundation?'
646
00:29:44,043 --> 00:29:46,697
- Financial scandal?
- Or personal?
647
00:29:49,222 --> 00:29:51,093
I believe in discretion.
648
00:29:51,180 --> 00:29:54,314
- A man was murdered.
- Bludgeoned, strangled.
649
00:29:54,401 --> 00:29:56,620
'That ain't discreet.'
650
00:29:56,707 --> 00:29:58,709
Do right by this kid, Finch.
651
00:30:13,550 --> 00:30:15,335
Summer of '78.
652
00:30:15,422 --> 00:30:18,033
That's me in the,
uh, swim trunks.
653
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:19,643
Lord have mercy.
654
00:30:20,906 --> 00:30:22,821
These are our
housemates..
655
00:30:22,908 --> 00:30:24,779
...Brian, Doug, and Leonard.
656
00:30:24,866 --> 00:30:26,912
And this man..
657
00:30:26,999 --> 00:30:29,784
...is Leonard's
hot summer romance.
658
00:30:36,356 --> 00:30:38,227
Paul was thinner then.
659
00:30:40,577 --> 00:30:42,797
When I went
to the party that night
660
00:30:42,884 --> 00:30:44,886
I didn't know
he was Jeff's brother.
661
00:30:44,973 --> 00:30:46,235
How'd you find out?
662
00:30:46,322 --> 00:30:48,890
I recognized him
from family photos.
663
00:30:48,977 --> 00:30:51,719
Same swim trunks.
664
00:30:51,806 --> 00:30:53,982
I realized Jeff didn't know.
665
00:30:54,069 --> 00:30:57,290
- So you told him?
- No.
666
00:30:57,377 --> 00:31:00,032
I went outside for a smoke
667
00:31:00,119 --> 00:31:02,948
there was the man himself.
668
00:31:08,997 --> 00:31:10,564
Paul?
669
00:31:10,651 --> 00:31:12,653
Carson Finch.
670
00:31:12,740 --> 00:31:14,481
Of course.
671
00:31:14,568 --> 00:31:16,222
I had no idea you
were Jeff's brother.
672
00:31:17,788 --> 00:31:20,400
Listen, this is..
673
00:31:20,487 --> 00:31:24,360
I'm married now,
and my family doesn't know--
674
00:31:24,447 --> 00:31:26,667
Say no more.
I understand.
675
00:31:27,624 --> 00:31:29,670
I read your column.
676
00:31:29,757 --> 00:31:30,714
You're crazy.
677
00:31:32,542 --> 00:31:34,718
Miss Finch isn't
everyone's cup of tea.
678
00:31:38,809 --> 00:31:40,376
How's Leonard?
679
00:31:40,463 --> 00:31:42,639
I've been thinking
of sending him a card.
680
00:31:43,989 --> 00:31:45,642
Leonard died last year.
681
00:32:20,547 --> 00:32:22,027
Why didn't you tell anyone?
682
00:32:22,114 --> 00:32:23,202
'I didn't believe in outing.'
683
00:32:25,421 --> 00:32:26,988
And then death outed us all.
684
00:32:31,123 --> 00:32:33,081
Paul's worried that
his brother will out him
685
00:32:33,168 --> 00:32:34,517
to their dad
at this meeting.
686
00:32:34,604 --> 00:32:36,606
Which, if dad treats
his kids equally
687
00:32:36,693 --> 00:32:38,652
means Paul
gets disinherited, too.
688
00:32:38,739 --> 00:32:40,393
So he kills Jeff
the night before
689
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:41,785
Ipso facto.
690
00:32:41,872 --> 00:32:44,049
Except we don't got
no factos.
691
00:32:44,136 --> 00:32:45,702
Blood results
were inconclusive.
692
00:32:45,789 --> 00:32:47,226
How come?
693
00:32:47,313 --> 00:32:49,315
Eighty-five percent
match to Jeff's DNA.
694
00:32:49,402 --> 00:32:51,534
The lab's assuming
the sample's degraded.
695
00:32:51,621 --> 00:32:53,928
But there's another explanation
for an almost match.
696
00:32:54,015 --> 00:32:55,190
A sibling.
697
00:32:55,277 --> 00:32:56,626
No, you can't take
that to court.
698
00:32:56,713 --> 00:32:57,976
Now, we need a confession.
699
00:32:58,063 --> 00:33:00,065
He'll lawyer up
in record time, Scotty.
700
00:33:00,152 --> 00:33:02,371
Maybe not.
701
00:33:02,458 --> 00:33:06,767
I think, uh, Paul wants
to tell someone what he did.
702
00:33:06,854 --> 00:33:09,857
He put it on the quilt panel
he made for Jeff.
703
00:33:09,944 --> 00:33:12,120
"He was lost, and is found."
704
00:33:12,207 --> 00:33:13,730
'The Prodigal Son.'
705
00:33:13,817 --> 00:33:15,123
Someone want
to catch me up here?
706
00:33:15,210 --> 00:33:17,343
I, uh, missed all
of Sunday school.
707
00:33:17,430 --> 00:33:19,998
It's a story about
two sons and a father.
708
00:33:20,085 --> 00:33:22,304
One son does everything
to please his father.
709
00:33:22,391 --> 00:33:24,176
- The other one..
- Bad.
710
00:33:24,263 --> 00:33:27,309
Goes off whoring and drinking,
shaming the family.
711
00:33:27,396 --> 00:33:30,051
While the good son
is home working the field.
712
00:33:30,138 --> 00:33:33,141
Then one day the bad son
wants to come back home.
713
00:33:33,228 --> 00:33:35,796
'And the father
instantly forgives him'
714
00:33:35,883 --> 00:33:39,060
welcomes him,
and gives him his fatted calf.
715
00:33:39,147 --> 00:33:40,409
All his stuff.
716
00:33:40,496 --> 00:33:42,890
Which makes
the good, dutiful son
717
00:33:42,977 --> 00:33:45,458
very, very angry.
718
00:33:55,207 --> 00:33:56,425
I have a meeting in ten minutes.
719
00:33:56,512 --> 00:33:57,861
Not today, Paul.
720
00:33:59,602 --> 00:34:00,821
What are you doing?
721
00:34:00,908 --> 00:34:02,997
Telling you a story.
722
00:34:03,084 --> 00:34:05,739
Then we want you
to tell us a story.
723
00:34:05,826 --> 00:34:07,784
Sorry, you're losing me.
724
00:34:07,871 --> 00:34:11,136
"He was lost, and is found."
725
00:34:11,223 --> 00:34:13,094
The Prodigal Son?
726
00:34:18,012 --> 00:34:20,058
Wendy, get Ben Kelton
on the phone.
727
00:34:21,407 --> 00:34:23,583
I think you should talk
to my attorney.
728
00:34:23,670 --> 00:34:26,020
Look at that kingdom.
729
00:34:26,107 --> 00:34:27,369
All yours.
730
00:34:28,718 --> 00:34:30,068
The good son.
731
00:34:30,155 --> 00:34:33,332
You sacrificed for it.
732
00:34:33,419 --> 00:34:35,334
'Gave up your own desires.'
733
00:34:35,421 --> 00:34:36,857
'Did everything right.'
734
00:34:36,944 --> 00:34:38,206
And earned this.
735
00:34:38,293 --> 00:34:40,600
While Jeff went out and played.
736
00:34:40,687 --> 00:34:42,384
'Defied your father.'
737
00:34:42,471 --> 00:34:44,299
I loved my brother.
738
00:34:44,386 --> 00:34:47,172
As long as he was
exiled from the family.
739
00:34:47,259 --> 00:34:50,653
But what if Jeff went
to your dad for help..
740
00:34:50,740 --> 00:34:52,177
...and they made amends?
741
00:34:53,917 --> 00:34:56,616
What if dad
welcomed him home?
742
00:34:58,444 --> 00:35:01,316
Would leave you
on the outside.
743
00:35:01,403 --> 00:35:03,753
You couldn't risk that.
744
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,452
So you made sure
that meeting never happened.
745
00:35:06,539 --> 00:35:09,063
At least, that's the version
Paul likes to tell himself.
746
00:35:09,150 --> 00:35:10,934
- It's cleaner.
- Straighter.
747
00:35:11,021 --> 00:35:13,415
But it was simpler
than that, wasn't it, Paul?
748
00:35:16,244 --> 00:35:17,637
You had a secret.
749
00:35:19,726 --> 00:35:21,380
You were terrified
750
00:35:21,467 --> 00:35:24,252
Jeff would tell dad.
751
00:35:24,339 --> 00:35:25,732
Come on, Paul.
752
00:35:26,950 --> 00:35:28,517
You want to make it right.
753
00:35:30,911 --> 00:35:33,827
You confessed
20 years ago.
754
00:35:36,264 --> 00:35:38,571
'Ben Kelton on the line.'
755
00:35:41,182 --> 00:35:43,750
Tell him..
756
00:35:43,837 --> 00:35:46,056
...I'll call him back.
757
00:35:46,144 --> 00:35:47,232
'Yes, sir.'
758
00:35:51,845 --> 00:35:54,891
I...tried to talk to Jeff.
759
00:35:57,242 --> 00:35:58,286
- Thanks for treating.
- Yeah.
760
00:35:58,373 --> 00:35:59,766
I'm gonnawalk that way
761
00:35:59,853 --> 00:36:02,203
pick up some
mocha-chip for Artie.
762
00:36:02,290 --> 00:36:03,683
I'd like to be at dinner
tomorrow night
763
00:36:03,770 --> 00:36:05,163
with you and Dad.
764
00:36:05,250 --> 00:36:07,556
- I have to do it alone.
- Do what?
765
00:36:07,643 --> 00:36:08,862
Get Artie in the drug trial.
766
00:36:08,949 --> 00:36:10,994
- But how?
- Any way I can.
767
00:36:11,081 --> 00:36:14,259
Beg, bribe, blackmail.
768
00:36:14,346 --> 00:36:16,043
Would that include
ruining my life?
769
00:36:16,130 --> 00:36:18,176
What are you talking about?
770
00:36:25,052 --> 00:36:28,925
You saw me with Finch.
771
00:36:29,012 --> 00:36:32,538
Think I didn't know
you were a closet case?
772
00:36:32,625 --> 00:36:34,496
It was one summer.
773
00:36:38,370 --> 00:36:40,023
Dad can't know.
774
00:36:40,110 --> 00:36:41,503
I would never out you.
775
00:36:41,590 --> 00:36:44,027
You threatened to out
a room full of men.
776
00:36:44,114 --> 00:36:45,768
- They're not my brother.
- I know you.
777
00:36:45,855 --> 00:36:48,554
You can't control yourself
when you want something.
778
00:36:48,641 --> 00:36:49,859
- Don't be crazy.
- He'll piss you off.
779
00:36:49,946 --> 00:36:51,861
You'll do anything
to help Artie.
780
00:36:51,948 --> 00:36:53,341
Paul, I won't hurt you.
781
00:36:53,428 --> 00:36:55,691
You don't want to,
but you will!
782
00:36:55,778 --> 00:36:57,780
- Cool off.
- Me?
783
00:36:57,867 --> 00:37:00,696
- Cool off?
- Go home to your wife.
784
00:37:01,958 --> 00:37:05,135
No. I won't let you.
785
00:37:08,704 --> 00:37:10,532
- Paul!
- No!
786
00:37:10,619 --> 00:37:12,578
