She killed everyone. Everyone's dead.
Yeah. l guess you might want this.
Question:
''Would you have sex for money?''
Answer:
''Yes.''l like sex. Okay?
That does not make me a hooker.
lt also doesn't make me a b*tch.
What's going on, Christian?
We have to do something
about these bodies.
-Why?
-Why do you think?
You can't have dead bodies
littering about the living room.
What would the neighbors think?
-Why can't we just wait for the police?
-lt's not their problem.
lt's not our problem.
ln a roundabout,
kind of complicated...
...for-richer-or-poorer way,
it is, Elizabeth, our problem.
l did this, Elizabeth, for you.
-No. Christian, no.
-They knew.
Elizabeth, they knew
about what you did.
You were smart...
...but you were also sloppy.
Next time...
...send someone else to pick up
the checks from the P.O. box.
-Whatever they told you, it's not true.
-lt's over.
They knew about you.
They planned on getting
their revenge this weekend.
But l wasn't gonna let
that happen, now was l?
-But why--?
-Taboo. They found out about Taboo.
That's why we all came up here.
That's why they were confronting you
-...to try and scare you to confess.
-Confess what?
Exactly. They knew you'd say that.
That's why they planned on tormenting
you, tricking you into admitting it.
You blackmailed them, Elizabeth.
They found out. Okay?
You don't need to lie to me anymore.
All right? lt's over.
-You won. Game is over.
-No, we won.
l'm supposed to think
you did this for us?
-Yes.
-Don't patronize me.
But that is why l did it.
Okay. You know what, convince me.
l stacked the notecards
in an order so that...
...each person would draw the question
they'd answer ''yes'' to, their vice.
And?
And then l set up a situation
over the past year where they had...
...a golden opportunity
to pursue that vice.
When they did...
-...you were there to document it.
-Yes.
So you tapped
into their sexual fantasies...
-...and you blackmailed them.
-That was an afterthought.
You are evil.
No, just poor and desperate.
All l ever wanted
was to win your love.
At their expense!
They're degenerates.
An infidel, a prostitute,
a homosexual and a rapist?
You were always the good one,
the strong one, the moral one.
-They didn't deserve you.
-Yes, l know that...
...but did you have
to punish them so severely?
No. lt seems you did that.
You don't think blackmailing people who
considered you a friend was punishment?
Exposing their private lives without
their consent, that's not punishment?
Okay, that's the ''why.'' Tell me how.
Adam was a horny little bastard.
You should know that.
You went out with him after all.
l paid a 1 4-year-old girl
to hit on him at a bar...
...and have sex with him.
-And what?
-And videotape it.
How poetic. Next victim.
Benjamin. l'd bet he'd pay a lot to
keep his sexual identity in the closet.
There's this bar he liked
to go to where...
...nobody knew your name as long
as you were a guy and good-looking.
And Kate?
Nothing to tell, she was a prostitute.
Come on, she wasn't a streetwalker.
She had a few select European clients.
-How do you know so much?
-l know everything.
l doubt it.
Shouldn't you have given Kate a little
leeway for her humble upbringing?
Just kidding.
And my dear little Piper,
how did you f*** her life up?
Hold on.
You set up that three-way between her,
me and Kate, didn't you?
You knew me.
You knew l'd break up with her...
...that l'd never look at her
the same.
Same with Adam, or Benjamin,
and anybody else.
And speak of the devil, what about me?
And speak of the devil, what about me?
Question:
''Would you sleep
with your partner's best friend?''
Answer:
A very disappointing no.
l said one thing, l did another.
l'm a hypocrite.
-But l forgive you.
-Why?
Why not blackmail me, ruin my life?
Because l wanted you more
than anything else in the whole world.
And it was always about you, Christian.
l wanted my family.
Our family. A new beginning.
Yeah.
Well, you know,
l think we're pretty much done.
Talking about this.
There is just one more little thing.
-l know you're not going to shoot me.
-How are you so sure?
We're family, remember?
l just have one surprise for you.
l promise you, you're gonna like this.
Everything is gonna
make sense in a moment.
Christian?
Morning, sunshine.
Christian, are you okay?
-Where is she?
-She ran upstairs.
-l'm gonna go get her.
-l say let's kill her.
-l'd like her dead.
-Not in the plan.
-Change the plan.
-lf we change it--
Nobody touches her.
l will go up there alone.
Go up alone? That's a great way
to think on your feet. Very smart.
She's still my fiance.
l'll deal with it.
ls this guy f***ing serious?
Here, you never know.
ls he okay?
Yeah, he's okay. He's just uptight...
...anal-retentive, conservative,
and he's got a very tweaked...
...and twisted moral imperative.
Go get 'em, big guy!
Elizabeth.
lt's time for Elizabeth's greatest hits.
-Nice.
Champagne, anyone?
Good job, actually.
-Here's to living in sin.
-And to good girls gone bad.
We're here, we're queer
and we're not going shopping.
-Kate?
-F*** it, l'm thirsty.
-Something doesn't feel right.
-lt feels very right.
-Come here, you little b*tch.
l don't ask. l am a rapist.
-What was the sixth question?
-To what?
The game, Benjamin.
What was the sixth question?
l've got a new question. Yeah.
Would you get naked
with your sexiest friends?
-Listen to me.
-You want a piece of this, Benji?
Listen to me,
what was Elizabeth's question?
You want a piece? Go ahead.
What was she trying to do
with this game?
She wanted to expose all of our moral
weaknesses. There were six cards.
Kate, do you really think
that b*tch would expose herself?
-Why not?
-Because then, Mr. Virtue, Honesty...
she wasn't perfect and dump her.
He wouldn't because she forgave him
for his transgressions...
...which means he'd have
to forgive her.
l know how Christian thinks. Where do
they keep the games in this place?
Maybe in the game room!
Thanks.
Elizabeth?
lt's over.
House is locked tight.
There's nowhere else to go.
You had your chance to confess
and come clean.
l realized they were right. You were
the one who blackmailed them...
...ruined their lives. l had no choice.
You understand, don't you?
Oh, my God.
Let me out!
Jesus Christ!
Oh, my God.
I paid a 14-year-old girl to hit
on him at a bar and have sex with him.
-And what?
-And videotape it.
How poetic. Next victim.
Benjamin. I'd bet he'd pay a lot to
keep his sexual identity in the closet.
There's this bar he liked
to go to where...
...nobody knew your name as long
as you were a guy and good-looking.
Looking for me?
Elizabeth.
-l don't think so.
-''You don't think so,'' what?
-Keep your blouse on.
-Why?
l'm not really in the mood,
