Give me a minute, okay?
Mrs. Urich?
Um... I'm Karen.
Karen Page. I don't know if Ben ever...
Karen, yes.
He talked about you all the time.
He did?
He thought you were something else.
The way you wouldn't let go until you got to the truth.
He admired that.
We never got around to having kids,
too busy with this or that, but...
if we had, I think he would have wanted one like you.
Mrs. Urich, I...
I think it's my fault...
what happened to Ben.
I pushed him into a story that he didn't want...
Ben Urich never got pushed into doing anything he didn't want to do.
He was a reporter.
That's what he lived for.
And he passed doing what he loved...
what he had to do.
We should be getting back.
It was nice to meet you, Karen.
Is there... Is there anything that you need?
- Anything at all that I... - No.
Ben's taken care of all that.
He took out a policy years back when that river water story turned ugly.
He always took care of me.
Still is.
How you holding up?
Like a good Catholic boy.
That bad, huh?
He was a good man.
And he's gone...
because I haven't stopped what's happening to this city.
Can't put that on yourself, Matthew.
You've done everything you can.
A lot you probably shouldn't have.
And here we are.
He just stood there, like he was his friend.
Like he had nothing to do with what happened.
I thought Ben said he didn't have any evidence
Ellison was taking money from Fisk.
No, but it makes sense. I mean, it explains...
Do you know what makes this worse?
Foggy.
Didn't even show up.
You said he left a message.
Yeah, he left a message...
saying he had something more important to do than come to Ben's funeral.
Come on, he wouldn't say that.
Yeah, well, it's what he meant.
It's my fault, Karen...
all of this with Foggy.
No, everyone shares the blame in a relationship.
That's... just the way that it works.
No, not always.
Why don't you go home, get some rest, huh?
I can't.
Every time I close my eyes, I see...
What if he finds out that I...
That I was with Ben...
at Saint Benezet.
What if he finds out that I spoke to his mother too?
If that happens, we will deal with it.
How?
I mean, the news barely mentioned what happened to Ben
because Fisk pays off the media.
And the police haven't arrested anyone for it
because Fisk pays them off, too.
Foggy was right.
How do you stop someone like that, someone who has so much?
It just means he has more to lose.
- He's gonna find out what I did. - No.
He's going to find out, and he's gonna come after me
just like he came after Ben.
I told you I would keep you safe, Karen...
when he came after you over Union Allied. That hasn't changed.
Everyone that's taken money from him,
everyone that's helped him tear this city apart...
they're all gonna get what's coming to them...
along with Wilson Fisk.
Wilson?
You should be in bed.
I was calling for you.
I'm sorry, I...
I didn't hear you.
Anything interesting?
Just a transfer of funds.
Wesley made the arrangements for me to get you out of the country.
- You know I won't leave without you. - I'm not asking.
I'm just reviewing them, and then I'll move the funds back.
Is everything all right?
It's just the numbers, I...
I'll have Leland take a look at them...
well, just to make sure.
Senator Cherryh's cleared the last of the zoning hurdles...
after squeezing us for another extra 10%.
Bright side, you'll be able to build whatever you want on your properties now.
Everyone's been paid off, everyone's on board.
But we will need to find a replacement for Gao's heroin trade.
Without it,
we might have some off-the-books cash flow issues down the road.
What's the word on what happened with her?
Looks like she's in the wind.
Wouldn't have expected it, but maybe she's not the ally we thought she was.
Mmm, maybe she's not.
What's this?
I asked Wesley to transfer funds for me the night before we found him.
I thought financials was my job.
Yes, that's why I wanted you to have a look at these.
There seem to be some irregularities with my accounts.
Of course there are. I move money around all the time.
It's a shell game to keep the SEC off our backs, it's nothing.
Your hand's shaking.
'Cause it's freezing out here.
Then why are you sweating, Leland?
All right, okay, Jesus.
I figured you'd find out sooner or later.
What's a guy gonna do?
Wesley found out, didn't he?
He confronted you...
and you shot him.
I have no idea what happened to Wesley. I wasn't a part of that.
But you had something to do with the benefit, didn't you?
You and Gao?
She's gone, you're stealing from me.
It's not what you think.
You tried to kill me.
The poisonings at the benefit
were just to make it look like someone was trying to get at you.
But you were never the target.
Vanessa?
Do you blame us?
Just look at what's happened since you took up with her.
You've been distracted, emotional, erratic.
We just wanted to nudge you back on track.
But...
obviously that went south, so...
we will be parting ways...
and I'll be taking half your assets with me.
You think that I would let you walk away after what you've done?
That's exactly what you're gonna do,
because I have Detective Hoffman.
Hoffman never left the city after he murdered his partner in the hospital.
I scooped him up, squirreled him away for a rainy day.
If I don't check in every 24 hours...
Hoffman gets dropped off to the Feds...
tells them all the shit he's been up to.
Hoffman, he's...
he's a frightened little worm.
He would never risk going against me.
Ten million buys a lot of courage.
He thinks he's going into witness protection,
get the money on the other side.
Now, I know you'll get to him before he cashes in,
but by then the damage will already have been done...
and everything you've been fighting so hard for will come tumbling down.
Yeah, but you would get caught up in that as well.
I've spent my entire life...
hiding assets overseas for pricks like you.
My son and I will be just another transaction,
disappearing into the tax-exempt ether.
But I'm a fair sort.
That's why I'm only taking half your money.
You go your way, I go mine.
Not what I'd call win-win...
but it's as close as we're gonna get with this.
So...
we on the same page?
I, uh...
No...
I don't think we are.
You hurt her!
Wait, wait!
You hurt Vanessa!
Sweep the city.
Find Hoffman and put a bullet in his head.
How'd you know I was here?
Known about your outlet for a while.
I didn't say anything because I thought it had something to do with your dad.
Now I know better.
Thought you'd be out punching people in the head, or whatever you do.
I was. Paid Ben's editor a visit.
- Ellison? - Yeah.
Karen thinks he's working for Fisk.
Did he talk?
No, never got close.
Wife and kid picked him up outside the office.
Try it again tomorrow night.
Looking like you have some anger issues. Wanna talk about it?
You're not my priest, Foggy...
who you might have met if you'd shown up for Ben's funeral.
Karen upset?
I told her this was my fault...
all of this between you and me.
I just nodded.
You could tell that, right?
Yeah, I could tell.
