I have absolutely no clue what you guys are talking about with the apartment wrangler. I guess I wasn't paying a lot of attention when I watched in at 1 am on saturday.
Patty gives Tom a manila envelope and he says "are you sure you want to do this?" and she says yes. You then see Tom sitting at an outdoor cafe table with a guy, and Tom tells him to do what he does, but to "go easy". The other guy says that Patty has used his company before and he knows exactly what she wants.
At this point we're all thinking he's supposed to dig into Ellen's life or her fiance's life, or maybe plant evidence to discredit her, or who knows what.
Then Patty gives Ellen the keys to a new apartment and when they show up at the apartment, the guy who lets them in to look around (the "apartment wrangler") is the guy Tom gave the envelope to.
So, now we're wondering what that was all about: it seems too much for that guy to just be Patty's real estate agent who found the apartment. One suggestion made here that seems very reasonable to me is that he bugged the apartment before handing it over to Ellen and her fiance.
