All Her Fault – S01E03 – Episode 3 | Transcript

[dramatic music]

♪♪

I don’t know where my son is.

♪♪

My name is Esther, and I’m here with your friend.

Now, do you have the right number for Jenny?

Yeah, I mean, I can…

I can send her the parent contact list again.

Another nanny picked Milo up from school.

Her name is Carrie Finch.

She works for another mom, Jenny Kaminski.

Hold on.

So her real name isn’t even Carrie Finch?

No, I’m afraid not.

Her driver’s license is fraudulent.

Any change in Carrie’s schedule lately?

She did ask for a day off, like, two weeks ago.

This is Colin. He’s my best friend and business partner.

Mar.

Hi.

Fuck. It’s work.

It’s the Philips account, and I don’t have the bandwidth to deal with it right now, and I…

You know what? I’ll, um…

I’ll handle the Philips account.

Thank you.

So what’s next?

Press conference. [sniffs] And we could get a ransom call.

♪♪

Miss Irvine, did you contact a publishing house late last night?

Couldn’t the current debt of your firm be offset by what you might stand to gain?

Thank you all for coming.

One question.

What if he never…

He’s my son!

I thought I had it under control.

I called the reporter and tried to pay him off, you know, to kill the story.

I was wrong. I’m sorry.

I love you and Milo so much.

Sometimes I feel like I’m gonna explode.

We found Carrie Finch’s nanny car abandoned out here. Well, Vernon Hills is in the middle of nowhere. It’s the kind of place where someone has to pick you up.

Carrie Finch isn’t working alone.

Miss Garcia, you told us that you’ve never spoken to Carrie Finch. No. She was always with Jacob. He likes to climb, and she didn’t want him to fall.

Where would Jacob fall from?

A playground.

A lot of the nannies take their kids there to play, and there’s a milkshake place nearby.

The kids love it.

♪♪

Jacob has “mall shakes.”

He means malted milkshakes.

I just didn’t correct him because I thought it was cute.

But Carrie would get them for him.

From where?

It’s from this place by the park that the kids go to.

It’s called Mo’s Malted Milkshakes.

Ana’s credit card statement for the card we gave her to use with Milo?

Purchase at Mo’s Malted Milkshakes.

Ana and Carrie were friends. He’s my son!

♪♪

[knocking]

Remember how we practiced hiding?

[crying]

[suspenseful music]

♪♪

Hey.

The police found Ana?

No. No.

They went around to her apartment, and she’s not there.

Her car is gone, and they keep calling her, and she’s not answering.

I’m gonna go home, but call me if you need anything.

Both: Thanks.

Thanks, Jenny.

♪♪

Ana lied to us.

Yeah.

She was at the milkshake place every Tuesday buying milkshakes with Carrie.

How could they have not known each other?

Mm.

She lied.

Why?

I don’t know.

♪♪

Where are Lia and Brian?

She’s taking him back to his place.

Took a painkiller, so he’s a little dizzy.

♪♪

[kissing]

I believed her.

Mm. I did too.

[doorbell rings]

♪♪

Hi.

Ana.

Can I come in?

Mmhmm. Come in.

♪♪

Want to have a seat?

[text swooshes]

I saw that press conference.

I’m sorry that people think this of you.

I know you would never do that.

You love Milo.

Mm. Yeah.

I do know Carrie Finch.

I’m so sorry I didn’t say anything before, but I was afraid I would get into trouble.

But I don’t know where Milo is, I swear to you.

I swear.

Mm.

Uh, what can you tell us about Carrie?

She was nice, I thought.

So you talked?

OK, what did you… what’d you talk about?

The families that we work for, what they’re like, who does what, the rules in the house.

This is what all the nannies talk about.

Carrie told me about her family, and I talked about mine.

OK, what did you tell her about our family?

That you’re a very happy family and that Milo is very loved and…

Ana…

We need to know the details.

I’m sure you talked about more than that.

I… I said…

[sighs]

I told her that Milo lives in a very big house and that you both work with people’s money, and sometimes it’s millions of dollars.

She asked about vacations too.

OK.

When you leave town and where you go.

And she asked about the home, if there was an alarm.

Oh, my God.

OK.

[clears throat] OK.

So Carrie was very interested in our money.

I didn’t know it meant anything.

She ask any other questions?

She wanted to know what kind of food Milo likes and his bedtime routine.

She wanted to know more and more about him.

She… she liked to spend time with him, get to know him.

Spend time with him how, exactly?

Like when she’s working as a nanny, like after school or something?

One time, it wasn’t when she was working.

We met in the city once.

When was this?

What happened, Ana?

She was with someone.

I didn’t think about it at the time, but now I think that she wanted them to meet Milo.

♪♪

[crying] It was a man.

Oh, my God.

OK.

I’m sorry.

OK.

OK. [doorbell rings]

♪♪

The police are here.

You called the police?

I’ll get in trouble.

You should be grateful that they’re here.

[siren wailing]

So you and Carrie… well, is it fair to say you’re friends?

Kind of.

Friends at work.

And you two talked about Milo a fair bit.

Is that right?

[tense music]

Yes, sir.

So we understand that Carrie had a man with her at some point when she was with Milo.

[sighs]

She um… she said he was just there, like a coincidence, but now I don’t think that’s true.

Can you walk us through it, tell us everything that happened that day?

[crowd cheering]

It was the marathon. Peter was running, and Marissa and Milo were going to cheer him on, and Marissa wanted me to come.

♪♪

Can you see Daddy?

Can you see him?

Yeah!

You can? Where?

You know what? OK.

Uh, can you, uh, wait with him for a second?

I’m just gonna go…

I’ll be back in a second.

Yeah.

You want to go on my shoulders?

Whoo!

Yeah?

Can you see him?

Whoo!

So about a week before, I told Carrie we were all going and that I would be watching Milo.

So she said she might come too.

And she said, maybe I’ll see you there.

And I laughed, because there’s so many people, you know.

Then she texted me that morning to ask where we were standing.

So I told her.

And she showed up?

[tense music]

♪♪

She texted me…

[notification chimes]

Saying that she was by the food trucks, very close, and we could come say hi, so we did.

You want to go see Carrie?

Yeah.

Yeah?

OK, let’s go.

Can we go get a snack?

We’re gonna go find Carrie, OK?

Careful.

I want a corn dog.

There she is.

Can you say hi?

Hi.

Hey, how are ya? [laughs] I got you a bottle.

Do you want to get a juice?

Yeah.

Can I get one apple juice, please?

Thank you.

♪♪

We got a juice, and we… we walked back to the riverside, same spot.

Um, that birthday party next week, is it on Thursday?

I haven’t put it in my phone.

I think so.

I’m not sure.

Let me check.

And I realized I forgot my phone.

You had it at the food truck.

So Carrie told me I should go hurry and find it before someone took it, and she would stay with Milo and watch his dad run by.

I left him there with her.

♪♪

My phone was still there.

It was fine.

Oh, my God.

So I went back to where Carrie and Milo were standing. But when I got there…

♪♪

When I got there…

♪♪

[crowd cheering]

She was arguing with a man. He left just as I came back. I asked her who the man was.

Um, he’s just a friend.

She said he was just a friend.

I gotta go, but I’ll catch you later, OK?

♪♪

I didn’t ask any more questions.

Can you describe him for us?

[sighs] No. I’m sorry.

I didn’t see his face.

He turned so fast.

What did you see?

Anything on him, his… his clothes?

Jeans and a flannel shirt.

Orange, I think, or red.

He was wearing a hoodie.

I’m sorry.

I… that’s all I saw.

Mm.

Do you think this man has Milo?

[dramatic music]

♪♪

[doorbell rings]

♪♪

Is this man an accomplice?

We can’t say for sure, but we’d like to ask you both a few questions, if we may.

Yeah, of course.

Sure.

How well do you remember the Chicago Marathon?

Uh…

It was the day that this man allegedly met Milo.

Wait, why the marathon?

Well, one possibility is, if you want something to go unnoticed, a marathon is a loud, distracting event.

I’m sorry, what went unnoticed?

What… what happened?

Did he do something to Milo?

Did he hurt Milo?

All Ana witnessed was a small interaction.

She never saw him touch Milo at all.

Do either of you remember anything unusual from that day, any strange conversations?

No.

I spoke to some other runners, but it was nothing unusual.

Mrs. Irvine?

No.

No.

Excuse me.

I’m sorry. Excuse me.

♪♪

We’ll continue with our investigation and keep you updated on any…

What is happening with the investigation exactly?

Please.

It helps to hear it.

Two police officers were sent to Mo’s Malted Milkshakes to speak to every employee to see if anybody remembers Carrie Finch and can tell us anything worthwhile and are checking all available CCTV in public areas to see if we can get a better image of her face.

The abandoned vehicle that we found yesterday has been sent to vehicle forensics, and the tire tracks and the mud are being analyzed as well.

I can only imagine how difficult this must be for both of you, but please know that there’s not a single thing we won’t do to bring Milo back home.

Yeah.

[somber music]

♪♪

I don’t understand.

Well, Ana’s going to come with us on Saturday to the marathon, and then we can all cheer on Daddy together.

But I don’t want Ana there.

[laughs] Oh. No. Hey.

What? You love Ana.

What’s this about?

Milo, tell me.

Whenever Ana comes, it means you go to work.

[crowd cheering]

[dramatic music] Hi.

Marissa. Yeah.

Great to see you again.

I, uh… my husband’s in the race, so I’m just…

I’m looking for him, but I wanted to come over and say hi because I know that Colin spoke to you about what next year looks like.

But for us, we’re, uh… we’re thinking like…

♪♪

Mar?

[sobbing]

OK.

♪♪

What’s going on?

Hey.

OK.

Uh, I…

I had a client that I knew was gonna be in the race, and I wanted to talk to them about work without Milo.

♪♪

And so that’s why I asked Ana to be there, so I could…

So I could work.

And if I hadn’t have done that, then Milo would…

Oh.

I’m sorry.

Hey.

No.

Hey, hey.

I’m sorry. I…

Hey, hey.

Hey.

It’s… it’s all my fault.

That’s not true.

It’s…

Listen to me.

Please, no.

Please, just no.

Please just hate me. Hate me.

It would be so much easier for you to hate me.

Mar, I’m not gonna hate you.

Stop being nice to me, please.

Mar, listen to me.

I’m never gonna hate you.

Hey, hey.

I love you.

That’s not how this works.

Come on.

It’s not how we work.

This, OK?

It’s how we work.

[ominous music]

♪♪

Hey, when you went to Bishop’s Academy, you got all of Milo’s things, right?

Yes, sir.

Did you happen to pick up any drawings, stuff like that?

Uh, yeah, right over here.

[suspenseful music]

♪♪

What’s up?

So the man is at the marathon to meet Milo, but we don’t know why.

Get to know him?

I don’t know. Make friends?

Maybe, but he bolts when Ana comes back with her phone.

Why?

I wouldn’t want Ana to describe me to the police.

What if he knew Ana would recognize him right then and there?

What, you think this guy is someone the Irvines know?

I think sometimes finance people get themselves in trouble, and the Irvines have a lot of friends in finance.

When Carrie picked up Milo from school, my thought here is, what if she interacted with someone or said something as they left, right?

So if HQ is here, right, then we could set up three teams of volunteers canvassing the area, circling here, here, and here.

Mmhmm. OK, great.

I think we should have the biggest team go through Seymour.

Right.

It’s the most amount of houses, and it’ll take the longest.

You’re right. Yeah.

OK. Yeah.

Great. OK.

And you know, everything will be set up by 3:00.

Mmhmm.

Hey, thank you for doing this.

Yeah.

Yeah, I mean, it’s… you know, I feel like it’s the least I could do.

Colin, don’t do the thing.

You had a gambling problem.

I went into business with you.

You’re so grateful.

I am grateful.

OK, well, it’s dumb.

OK?

Just…

[phone ringing]

Hello?

Colin, I sent you an email. I didn’t know if you had time to read it?

No, no, sorry.

Uh, there’s just a lot going on right now.

It’s about the Philips account. The funds still aren’t there, and the client’s asking about it.

Trust me.

OK, I’ll let them know.

Hey, Brendan, what’s up?

Are you at the office?

Yeah, but you’re not gonna like this.

They cancel the pitch?

No, no, but they’ve moved it back an hour.

What?

Yeah, it’s at 2:00 now. I’m sorry.

God, I have to pick up Jacob at 3:00.

I’ll never make it back.

OK.

Uh, OK, I… I’m happy to…

No, no, no.

I’m not missing this.

So you’ll just tell him that we’ll both be there at 2:00.

OK, great. Great, great, great.

OK, that’s lunch.

Remember, guys, tomorrow’s balloon rocket day.

Newton’s third law in action.

It’s a rocket, guys.

[phone ringing]

Hey, hon’.

I’m sorry.

About what?

Oh, I thought you were calling about what’s online.

Oh, God. What is it?

It’s a picture you’re tagged in. You’re with some friends, a lot of birthday presents all over the table at a bar.

I think that was, like, two years ago.

What’s the problem?

Well, there was a lot of wine.

♪♪

Oh, right.

OK, yeah.

Too drunk to notice that my nanny’s a psycho.

[chuckles] That’s some of it.

What’s the rest of it?

Basically that you have a nanny so you can go out and party, and that your job is kind of a joke.

Look, honey, it’s total bullshit. People online are idiots. They got nothing better to do.

I have to focus right now.

That’s why I’m calling.

The Lee Logan pitch moved from 1:00 to 2:00.

Oh, shoot.

That’s kind of…

It’s annoying. I know you have [indistinct] tonight, but can you cancel it and pick Jacob up?

Yeah.

Yeah, sure.

Come on.

It’s not the end of the world.

I know how long you’ve been after this guy.

My God, thank you.

I gotta say, you’re the only person I know who wants a promotion where there isn’t any more actual money.

Yeah, but it’s prestige.

Prestige, more work, no additional compensation.

Yeah, should be the slogan for publishing.

Thank you, Richie.

OK.

Just give me a minute.

American Saints.

Yeah.

That’s it.

OK, I’m done.

Lee, this is Jenny Kaminski, head of marketing at Blackhorn, and Brendan Hill, her VP.

Blackhorn, the independent publisher.

Mr. Logan, it’s a pleasure to finally meet you.

I’d hold judgment if I were you.

I’m notoriously hard on publishing execs.

[chuckles]

So is today about a pitch?

Yes, it is.

I’m guessing that’s arty cover mockups, right?

I don’t need to see that stuff.

I saw a bunch of that in your report.

Oh, I didn’t know that you had…

Oh, I passed it on.

I hope that was all right.

Of course.

I just know how busy you are, so I didn’t expect that you’d have taken a look already.

Yeah, I did.

So I get your point.

Go younger.

Here’s what the ads could look like.

Here’s a sample spend of marketing, et cetera, et cetera.

I’ll give it some consideration.

[keys clacking]

OK. Thank you.

Yeah, thank you.

Um, sorry.

Um…

I just have to ask one question.

You said a sample spend of marketing.

What did you mean?

From your report.

I don’t have a sample spend of the marketing in my report.

Yeah, you do. You all do.

Probably some assistant put it in there without you even… look, don’t take this the wrong way, OK?

You’re not the first marketing team that’s tried to get me to switch publishing houses.

You all come in here with lofty goals.

But at the end of the day, I can’t jump ship because of some bullshit ideas.

Somebody has to make the actual numbers work.

I did.

I’m sorry?

What’s in my report is your actual 2024 marketing spend revamped with our strategy, and it’s within budget.

I wouldn’t stand in front of you with hypotheticals.

Maybe I should have the courage to throw around bullshit ideas or have an assistant do my work for me.

I’d have more time to sleep.

But I don’t.

I do the actual work myself.

It’s who I am.

Sleep’s overrated.

Yeah, I remember.

How would you go about doing that on a larger scale?

How large?

The Chicago Marathon.

The Chicago Marathon’s a million people, maybe a million and a half.

We got clear images of who we’re looking for?

Yeah.

It’s the Irvine case.

Mom, Dad, and Milo were there, plus the nanny.

Dad was in the race.

But what I’m after is an image of the man who was around them.

I need a time and location to even start.

Riverside, near Adams.

Nanny estimates between 11:00 and noon.

That’s still a big window.

You said the dad was in the race?

Yeah. Why?

This site logs all the runners’ times… when they start, when they finish, when they hit the checkpoints.

This him?

Yeah.

Hey.

Thanks, buddy.

I was not expecting that.

You recognized me earlier, didn’t you?

It’s OK.

I know my face is out there now.

It’s trash gossip from bored people who have no lives.

I wish it were true. [laughs] The only reason I needed a nanny was to go out and party.

That’d be a lot easier than the actual truth… which is I don’t know how I’m supposed to function without someone to help me, but the thought of hiring another nanny right now, how am I… how am I supposed to do that, you know?

[tense music]

So after you tag anything like marathon, running, Chicago, stuff like that, and you filter those images by location, you get this.

Each of these is a picture taken that day.

But it’ll be over.

And then I’ll take Milo to the zoo again.

And you really didn’t need to walk to all these houses with me.

I walked to all these houses with you because sometimes I want to be actual help, not just symbolic.

Yeah.

I thought they would say that it was staged.

I was prepared to hear that.

Anyone who would believe something that sick needs to be online to say it.

Most people know that’s not the truth, and they just want to help.

They don’t want to be near me.

I can see that.

They… they feel bad for me, but they don’t want to talk to me.

They want to get away, and I think that’s because…

I think they think that he’s gone.

I don’t think that.

Thank you.

I really don’t.

I swear to you, even my deepest, darkest thoughts, they’re not that.

Hey.

I’m so sorry.

Where have you been?

I’m sorry.

I’m gonna leave you two.

OK.

Thanks for today.

Yeah, no problem.

Where were you?

You were supposed to be with me, and we were gonna do that together.

I know, I…

I just, I drove.

Well, then what? What happened?

Why…

And I…

I just pulled over, and I… I started crying, and I couldn’t stop, and I, um…

I thought I had to get it together before I came back, and I couldn’t, and I… I just…

I couldn’t.

It’s OK.

I’m sorry.

[tense music] It’s OK.

It’s OK.

I understand.

Nobody knows anything.

Everyone was questioned, and nobody saw anything.

It’s been three days.

There’s no ransom, which means… if no one wants money, then they aren’t planning on returning him, which means he’s… which means he’s not close by.

Hi, Alex.

Well, congratulations, Jenny.

Lee Logan is coming to Blackhorn.

[laughs]

What?

You made the numbers work. He liked that.

But there’s more.

He wants you to take on his back catalog.

Well, we were only pitching his next title.

His back catalog…

Is massive, I know. I know. Listen, Lee is pretty much his own floating economy, and now that’s coming your way.

You and your husband go pop some champagne.

[uplifting music]

Thank you. Thank you.

You’re welcome. Take it easy.

Honey, I would have done the same thing.

Then why do I feel like shit?

Well, because that’s the way it is with Sam.

We feel like shit sometimes.

It doesn’t mean we’re actually shit.

All he wanted was for me to get a rock out of his shoe for him. But he… he couldn’t tell me.

I mean, he can’t communicate with us, Case.

I mean, all we can do every day is guess.

You’re a great mom.

He loves you to pieces.

Look, he’s already forgotten.

I can hear him in the background.

He’s laughing.

Thank you, honey.

[muffled laughter]

I, uh… I’ll come home as soon as I can, OK?

Love you.

Can you bring that picture up again?

Look at that.

I was thinking it was just a reflection, right?

Probably. It was a sunny day.

Sun catches a window just right.

Yeah, but it’s not a window.

It’s a rooftop.

Why is someone on a rooftop during a marathon?

A tiny, single point of reflective glass.

It’s a camera.

Elevated angle.

Geotags would have been much further out.

That’s why it didn’t come up.

Hi.

How are ya?

Done.

Just done.

Oh, no. What happened?

Oh, just a fight on everything.

Dinner, bath, pajamas, books.

I’m sorry.

I didn’t mean for the evening to be so unpleasant.

Pitch go OK?

We got him.

We got Lee Logan.

Great.

[line ringing] Hi, Colin.

Hey.

Sorry, it took me a sec.

I had to think something through.

Sure. Whose trust is it?

To anyone who may have seen or heard something, every bit of information is crucial as the hunt for Milo Irvine continues.

I got one.

It’s on a photography forum.

Who are you?

Local authorities have reiterated the importance of coordinated efforts and praised volunteers for their dedication and cooperation. But the community remains hopeful that Milo will be reunited with his parents in time for his sixth birthday.
