These guys earn their living exposing...
1:03:02
all kinds of exotic schemes
to defraud and rob people.

1:03:05
Sometimes they start thinking,
" Hey, I'm on the inside.
I know why these schemes fail.

1:03:08
I won't make the same mistakes. "
1:03:10
You're saying he's cracked
from so many years of hard work?

1:03:14
He's a driven man.
Had a terrible marital experience.

1:03:19
Turned him off women, except for
the little no-threat secretaries...

1:03:22
and barflies he picks up.
1:03:24
Crushed when he caught
his wife cheating.

1:03:27
He's feeling older
and looks around and says,

1:03:29
" Hey, maybe it's time
I get mine and get out. "

1:03:32
Guy named Peterson
a couple of years ago tried the same.

1:03:34
Of course, he's a houseguest
at Sing Sing these days.

1:03:37
Well, I'm sure you know him
better than I do.

1:03:40
It'll resolve itself.
1:03:43
Um, Betty Ann, I spoke with Caroline.
1:03:48
- You did?
- I told her I wanted my freedom.

1:03:53
- Really?
- Isn't that fabulous?

1:03:56
It's surprising.
1:03:58
I thought you'd be
knocked off your feet.

1:04:00
Well, I mean, it was last night.
1:04:03
- It's sort of like a roller coaster.
- Forget about last night.

1:04:05
I knew I'd made a mistake
the minute I left your apartment.

1:04:08
What did she say?
1:04:10
I think she sensed
we'd been drifting apart.

1:04:13
she was very poised.
1:04:15
Said if I was sure
that's what I wanted, uh--

1:04:19
- Thank you.
- I'll have another one of these, please.

1:04:21
Sure.
1:04:23
You're certainly not as euphoric
as I'd imagined.

1:04:26
Well, you can't expect me to just
change gears and turn on a dime.

1:04:32
- Have you changed your mind?
- Mmm.

1:04:35
- No.
- You haven't met someone else, have you?

1:04:38
No, no, I haven't.
1:04:49
I don't understand, fellas.
What-- What's going on? What'd I do?

1:04:53
Yes, those are the ones.
They were in his bookcase.

1:04:57
He bets every day, and, uh,
and he usually loses.
