(1) INT. GREYBOURNE SOCIAL HOUSE – COCKTAIL AREA – NIGHT
Otis: He overstepped. He has to know his place. This is a problem that’s easily gotten rid of. I don’t even know why we’re discussing it. Make it go away.

Dick: I’ll be right back. I’m gonna go have a cigar with the gents.

Otis: Big night for your husband. I hope it goes according to plan.

(3) INT. GREYBOURNE SOCIAL HOUSE – BALLROOM – NIGHT
Otis: Matthew Ward. I can’t tell who anyone is with these masks on. But I guess that’s the point. You need a theme.
Matthew: Otis, it’s good to see you. You excuse me?
Otis: Oh, no, no, no, no, no. (chuckles) Come with me.

(4) INT. GREYBOURNE SOCIAL HOUSE – BALLROOM – NIGHT
Matthew: I didn’t ask to be on the board for the building. I didn’t ask for any of this.
Otis: I don’t care about your feelings, Matthew. I just want to know if I have your vote.
Matthew: Well, I haven’t decided yet.
Otis: What can I do to help you decide?
Matthew: You can’t. See, I’m gonna make the decision that’s best for my son. Wouldn’t mind getting the hell away from this whole arrangement, if you want to know the truth. I don’t like what we’re doing.
Otis: Matthew, it’s like the old song says. You can check out, but you can never leave.

(5) INT. GREYBOURNE SOCIAL HOUSE – BALLROOM – NIGHT
Otis: (Otis taps microphone) Excuse me. May I have your attention? Friends of the Greybourne Foundation, nothing brings me greater joy than to celebrate one of my favorite people, Mrs. Charlotte Greybourne Ivey. (Applause) And I am especially proud to do it here in this property, which the Greybourne Corporation purchased despite many obstacles. Greybourne Corporation gets things done. (Applause) And now it is my distinct pleasure to introduce our guest of honor, Charlotte Ivey. (Applause) (Suspenseful music plays)
Mrs. Ivey: Thank you, Otis.
Matthew: Where’s Dick?
Tory: I don’t know.
Mrs. Ivey: I always say you’re never too old to want your father to be proud of you. My father, Alistair Greybourne, died young, but I have kept his legacy alive by honoring the Greybourne name. My work for the Save New York Foundation has given me a platform to celebrate my father and the city we all love. Thank you. (Applause)

Ginny: It has been a while since I’ve stalked someone’s apartment. Is James even in there?
Alex: Where else would he be? It’s not like he has a job. Or replies to any of my texts or answers any phone calls.
Ginny: Okay, so what’s the point of this, then, if we’re obviously cutting him out of our lives.
Alex: I want the unvarnished truth. Satisfy my inner Agatha Christie.
Ginny: Well, there he is. Go get your truth.
[They watch as James meets with Otis, who hands over a fat envelope]
Alex: Okay, that looks an awful lot like an envelope full of cash. Who’s that guy?
Ginny: I don’t know about cash. but that is definitely Otis Winthrop the Third.
Alex: From the gala?
Ginny: Mrs. Chan’s brother.
Alex: Well, does James work for him?

Elena: Did you talk to him?
Ginny: No, but we saw him with Otis Winthrop.
Alex: The third. Not the old guy. He was giving him an envelope full of cash.
Elena: Like some gangster?
