00:00 God, I've missed you.
00:02 I've missed you, too.
00:04 Maybe in the morning I'll make you my special Blackberry Brie omelet.
00:10 I would love that.
00:12 And then maybe I could take you shopping.
00:15 Can't you ignore it?
00:22 I give her a year, she gives us everything.
00:28 She gives us everything.
00:30 Oh, God.
00:41 What's wrong?
00:43 I mean, I hit a break in the...
00:45 Ben, someone bust through the window downstairs by the pool.
00:50 Okay, and the police are on their way?
00:52 Yes, but I need you. I'm all right. Don't worry.
00:55 Okay, good. I'll be there as fast as I can.
00:58 It's fine. Just go.
01:03 Let me know everything's okay.
01:08 Will do.
01:09 The police say it was an attempted smash and grab.
01:16 They ran off when they realized I was home.
01:19 I guess I was really lucky.
01:23 I'll get a broom and a dustpan.
01:25 You know, I was thinking maybe you could stay the night tonight in the guest bedroom.
01:29 Well, I... I gotta...
01:32 I don't feel safe.
01:34 Yeah, it probably wouldn't make sense to go home and come back.
01:42 What a relief.
01:44 You never think I'm gonna have a drink.
01:48 Settle my nerves. You want one?
01:51 No, thanks. Just want to clean up and go to sleep.
01:54 You know, I was thinking...
01:58 The police are right. My security system's old and it's on the fritz.
02:03 I want someone out here first thing.
02:07 Sure, I'll get on it.
02:08 But then that means I'm gonna have strange men in my house during the day and what about at night?
02:14 We'll get the window replaced and the locks changed.
02:16 Yeah, but the security system's probably not gonna be in place then.
02:20 Then we can hire private security until they're finished.
02:22 And have strangers in my house.
02:27 You know, I'm not gonna be able to sleep.
02:30 I want somebody that I'm comfortable with.
02:36 Somebody that I can be myself around.
02:39 Somebody that I can trust.
02:42 You want me to live here while the security system goes in?
02:44 Well, I can't think of a better solution. Can you?
02:49 Yeah.
02:50 Look, this is my house and I need to feel safe and in order to do that...
02:54 I need you.
02:57 Please?
02:59 Oh yeah, we can do a lot in here.
03:07 We can insulate it, make it soundproof.
03:09 A safe room with all the amenities you're used to having. Not some closet.
03:14 Shit.
03:16 Who is it?
03:18 Callie, but we can talk later.
03:20 Please, go ahead.
03:22 Thanks.
03:24 Hey, Callie.
03:26 This all sounds really good, but can I get some additional features?
03:30 What were you thinking? You've already asked for the works.
03:32 Well, these are features that only I want to know about.
03:36 Can you do something like that?
03:38 I'm here to serve my client, not my client's assistant.
03:42 Oh, and the longer this takes, the better.
03:47 You're moving in with her?
03:49 Just on a temporary basis. Just until the work's finished, which won't be long.
03:54 What do you even know about the break-in at this point?
03:58 This whole thing just feels convenient.
04:04 Callie, please. Look, I'm sorry I ran out, okay?
04:08 I'll call you back when I know more. Bye.
