The Partner

Patrick tells Sandy to meet Eva again at a beach house in Perdido. She has evidence against Benny Aricia. Meanwhile, the FBI is still interrogating Stephano. Sandy has informed them of Eva’s role in the story and the abduction of her father. Stephano tries to deny all knowledge, but the FBI pressures him into telling the truth. He admits he is looking for Eva and tells the truth when he says he doesn’t know where she is. They tell him to leave Eva alone.

At the beach house, Eva reveals to Sandy that the Aricia claim about Platt & Rockland was false from the beginning. Patrick has assembled boxes of documents and tapes to prove it. Aricia, with help from Patrick’s firm and from Senator Nye, planned his own heist. Patrick noticed the behavior of the senior partners changing. He found out about Aricia and started collecting information. Platt & Rockland already had a reputation for false billing. Benny submitted his own falsified bills making it appear that they were authorized by the parent company. Patrick has audiotapes of Benny and the partners talking about it.
