Hi, Melanie. Hi, Mrs. Winchester. So nice to meet you.

Please call me Nina. I've got some tea for us and a charcuterie board.

Is it too early for meat and cheese?

You know that's what they have for breakfast in Europe.

Wow.

I'm just going to say I think you might be overqualified for this job with all

this experience and a college degree. No, I know.

I just realise I really enjoy being a housemate. You do? For the right families,

of course. Okay. What brought you back to New York?

I missed it. Well, I really love New England,

but I miss being in the city.

But you know this is a live-in position, right?

I mentioned that in the ad tonight.

Oh yeah. No, of course. Yes. Yes. Oh God. Okay. I miss being near the city.

Not actually in the city. It's a little crazy.

Yes. I fully agree with you. Okay. So the job is mostly organising,

cleaning, like cooking if you're up for that. Oh, absolutely. I love to cook.

Amazing. And then you would be helping me with my daughter. She's Cecilia Cece.

She's seven years old and ... Oh, she's amazing. Well, I.

Can't wait to meet her.

Oh, good. Okay.

Would you like a grand tour so you can see what you're getting yourself into?

Sure. And the kitchen. My husband, Andrew,

designed this entire house soup to nuts. He's an architect? No,

he's in tech, but he pays incredible attention to every detail. Now,

these steps are kind of nuts. I know.

Andrew says I'm totally going to kill myself one day on these. Such a clutz.

I should just draw my chalk at one on the bottom to get it over with.

So there's another set of stairs on the other side of the house that are less

googen behind me. If you're into that.

Wow. It's basically Andrew's man cave,

but you are welcome to use it anytime you want. Of course.

You'd be part of the family,

which also means that you would definitely have to listen to his TED Talk about

how Barry Lyndon is a misunderstood masterpiece.

This is the upper living room.

Which we barely ever use, to be honest.

I'm sure even. Need a housekeeper?

Well, actually I'm expecting,

so I'm not going to have quite so much time to keep everything so perfect,

but don't tell Andrew because it's very early and I want to be sure

before I tell him.

Yeah, congrats.

Thank you. This is Cece's room.

Andrew even made a little miniature version of our house for her.

Isn't that sweet?

So the laundry room is in the basement,

then that would be your bathroom and you would be upstairs.

You're going to think it's a little bit small, but it's.

Got a lot of privacy and we figured that that was the most important thing.

Lots of light though. You can make it your own,

of course. You can hang posters and bring in potted plants.

You can blast your music as loud as you want because we cannot hear you

downstairs. What do you think? It's perfect. Okay, good.

When? Well, I'm still interviewing, but I'm hoping to make a decision soon.

There you go. Oh no, you don't have to do that. Oh no, I insist.

You spend your energy and your time and your gas money to be here. Please.

I appreciate it. I have a really good feeling about this, Millie. I do.

Me too. Okay. I'll be in touch.

She won't be in touch. When's the last time I'll ever set foot in that house?

One background check and she'll see that everything on that resume is a total

lie. I don't even wear glasses.

Just trying to look legit. So stupid.

Can I get a job application? There you go. Thanks.

I knew she wouldn't call. Why'd I even think I had a shot at that job? Well,

I at least got $20 out of it. I don't know what I'm going to do.

Pull.

It down. Can't sleep here.

I'm so sorry.

I was driving from my mom's house and I don't really sleepy and I pulled over to

take a nap. I'm sorry. This is her actually. Do you mind if I take it?

She's probably freaking out.

Don't text and drive.

I won't. I promise. Hello?

Hi, may I speak to Millie? This is her cheat.

This is Nina Winchester. I'm calling to offer you the job. I mean,

if you're still available, you've probably got a million people.

No. I mean, yes, yes. I would love to. When would you like me to start?

Oh my goodness. As soon as possible.

Well, what about this afternoon?

You know what? That would be great.

Great. Anyway, got to run. Bye, Millie. Yes.

Hey. Hey, I'm Millie.

Do you work for the Winchesters? I'm trying to get in,

but I don't know the code.

Nina? Nina, it's Millie.

Nina?

Millie?

Welcome. Hi. Sorry. I meant to leave the gate open.

Do you need me to help you bring in your stuff from your car?

Oh no, this is it.

Great. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. I put the rest of it in the storage and in. Okay. Well,

that's great. I'm going to put these up in your room. Listen,

I need to write a PTA speech that has to be a barn murner.

So I'm going to be stuck in my office,

but the cleaning supplies are in this closet over there. And oh,

you're not wearing your glasses.

Oh, I don't wear them all the time. Contacts. Oh.

Yeah, you look better without them. Yeah. Okay.

I'll be upstairs. This is going to be.

Fun, Millie.

I was thinking crazy.

No shoes on the furniture.

Hey. Hi. You must be Cece.

I'm Millie.

Hello.

Okay. Hi. You met Millie. Hi, baby.

Millie's going to be living with us and she's going to be helping with the

cooking and the cleaning. And you know what?

She might even play candy lamb with you if you ask her with a pretty please.

She's going to live with us.

Yes. Andrew, I.

Told you that. I said she was going to be living in the guest room in the attic.

Isn't this place look incredible? Look at it.

Thank you.

Well, Millie, welcome.

Thank you.

Are you hungry?

I'm sure we can turn this dinner for three and do a dinner for four.

No, I'm probably just going to go upstairs and get all settled in. You.

Sure? If.

You don't mind, I'll just come down afterwards and tidy up. Yeah, get settled.

Take your time. We're so happy that you're here. You.

Just let us have to change your mind.

Thanks.

You ordered for the wrong Italian place again.

Knock log.

Hi. That window doesn't open, sadly,

but there's a lot of ventilation in this room,

so you should never get stuffy in here. I got you some dinner. Andrew,

always over orders. I put some water.

In the mini fridge. You see that? Yeah. I really don't want to be a pain,

but if it is possible to try and get the window open,

it'd be nice to get some fresh air in here.

Yeah, I agree. That's a great idea. I will talk to the handyman about that.

Oh, cool. Is that the guy that's down in the yard?

No, that's Enzo. He's the round skier.

Nevermind him. And then if I could just get a key for the deadbolt. Oh my God.

Yes. The deadbolt. That's so creepy.

This used to be.

Andrew's storage closet for his files. Okay, but oh my God.

Closed window. Deadbolt.

What kind of monsters are we?

Yeah.

I will sort that out. Oh, before I forget, this is for you.

It's present. Also,

I saw that your phone was just really ancient and I wanted you to have that

because I uploaded the credit card onto it so you can use it at the grocery

store and for gas. I'll take good care of it.

Thank you.

Honestly, I'm so happy that you hear this.

Thanks. Can I give you a hug?

Oh.

Thank you, Millie. Thank you. Okay.

Let me know if you need anything else.

Nina. Where are they? We're what?

My PTA notes from the meeting tonight.

They were right here on the counter and now they're not here. Where are they?

I didn't see any notes. Bullshit. Where are they?

Nina shirt notes. Hey, what's going on? Really?

Threw away my notes for the meeting tonight. Where are they?

Nina, why don't we go check your office?

I have to get up and do a speech in front of everybody, and now I have nothing.

What?

Do you have a copy on your computer?

I wrote them my hand.

Oh, fuck. I always think better when I write my hand with my fiance.

Come here. Come here. It's okay.

Just take a deep breath. Breathe, breathe.

Breathe.

Breathe.

Here's the plan. I am going to take Cece to school and you,

you are going to take a hot shower. You're going to have a nice long breakfast,

and then you have all day to work on your speech,

and you can still make it to the salon for a touch.

You'll have just enough time to get your rich done.

I love you so much. I love you.

I love you.

You need to be more careful next time.

You've ruined my entire day.

I'm sorry.

I am so sorry.

Don't worry about it. I don't know what's been going on with her lately.

She's been on a real emotional rollercoaster.

Oh, it's probably the mercury and retrograde.

Didn't beg you for the star chart type.

Guilty.

Let me help you clean up. It's fucking nice. No.

No, no, no, no. I got it. I got it. You go get ready.

I don't want you to be late for Suzie.

Thank you.

Tomorrow will be better. It'll be better, I promise.

Okay.

Yeah. Cece, let's hit the road.

What are you doing here?

I work here. What are you doing here?

You.

Got sweetie from me.

I don't really fit in very well with those other PTA moms.

I guess I didn't realise how stressed it'd been. It's.

Probably just all the new hormones making you go crazy.

I wouldn't say anything to Andrew. Get out.

I have to shower and you're going to handle dinner later. Okay.

It smells amazing. It's.

Chicken.

Piccata. Oh, I picked this up for Cece.

Oh, these are fantastic. She's going to love these.

Someone did not get her snack today and she has a very hungry little bell right

now. Why don't you get her started and I'll be right back down.

Hey, Cece. How's Class?

Would you like juice or water?

Juice, but this glass is dirty. Really?

I just took it out of the dishwasher. Juice is a privilege,

not something you drink out of a dirty glass. Of course not.

This looks amazing. Doesn't it CC? Way better than dinosaur nuggets.

Hey, Millie. Why don't you grab a play sitting and join us?

No, I already ate.

Oh, we insist. Don't wait, Cece.

I hope you guys like it.

Come in.

Hey. Hey. Sorry to bother you.

Got something for you. Cici insisted.

She's so sweet.

Yeah.

You.

Can tell me.

No, no, no, no, no. Absolutely fucking not.

I want you to feel safe here. I too.

Through your door as requested. Thanks.

So how was last night by Pandrea? Good.

I made.

Chicken picada. He's a dream, his name.

He pretends to like everything I make him, even if he ates it.

That's a lot of bacon, Millie. You're trying to kill us.

Where are you going?

I have Saturday off. Isn't that what we talked about?

No, I can't spare you today.

I missed my hair salon appointment because you threw away my notes.

Remember? I have a meeting that I can't miss.

You have a meeting? What's the meeting for?

If I could just have a couple hours off and I'll come by. Millie,

absolutely not. Baby? I can't have you west. See her?

It's okay. She can go.

But Andy, it's your day off.

I know, exactly. And that's why we're going to go to the park. Fly this kite.

We might not wait to fly, right? We're doing donuts, we're doing kites,

and we're doing ballet. Go. Take your time.

Hi, mama. Bye, baby.

Have fun.

Thanks.

Hey, how are you doing? I'm good.

Still writing in your journal? Yeah. Do you want to read it? God, no.

I have enough shit to read as it is. So you left the job at Charlie's.

Well, this housekeeping job just sort of fell into my lap and it's live-in,

so I'm saving a fortune on rent.

Okay. That's good.

I have my new address here and phone number.

The family is really amazing. I feel lucky.

Must make meeting you people a little tough though,

having to live with a family. I mean, you would think that right,

but I have already met a tonne of really cool nannies.

Any nannies in there? Are you asking me about my love life, Pam?

If I know how Tinder works or if I'm horn dogging all over great neck because I

haven't gotten late in 10 years?

No. I'm just saying human connections are important. Definitely.

But hold on to this job, Millie, and the living situation.

You'll need both or you'll be back at Bedford serving the five years left on

your sentence. And I don't like that for you.

I don't like that for me either.

Hi, Nina. I'm just- I need you to pick up Cece from ballet class, 1:45,

and don't be late.

Okay. Where is it, Nina?

I like close.

Fuck. Tom, do you rank.

And birthday and open to the left, but behind you?

Excellent and close to first. Fabulous class today. Thank you.

Let's let me know back. Great job.

Hi, who are you looking for? Cece. It's Cecilia Worchester.

Are you Nina's new girl? Yes. Hi, I'm Lily. Hi.

Hi. Cece. Hey, I'm here to pick you up.

I'm spending the night at Emma's. We arranged it weeks ago.

She has all her things. Oh, no, no, no.

Nina just called me and asked me to pick her up,

so she probably changed her mind. Oh. Okay. Let me check.

Nina. Hi, it's Patrice. Your girl is here.

She's insisting she needs to pick up Cece.

I know. I know. No, it's no problem at all.

It's impossible to find reliable help. Oh, would you like to confirm?

Have fun. We figured it out.

Okay. Take care. Bye. Well, they really are beautiful.

So happy we'll be able to use them. Mother.

Winchester. Well, the pattern is vintage, of.

Course. Millie.

I told you Cece was having a sleepover tonight.

There was no need to make a scene.

This is how you allow the help to dress in your home?

This is Andrew's mother, Mrs. Winchester. She's downsizing,

so she has brought us her mother's china. Yes. Is it lovely?

Isn't it?

Yes. I know. Andrew loves these dishes.

I want you to put them somewhere safe because Nina's likely to

trip over herself and smash them all to pieces.

Guilty as charged.

Andrew.

Mother.

Oh, Andrew. Where's your.

Tie? I know. I am too casual. I'm sorry. Your hair is fabulous.

Thank you, dog.

Not a rude insight. Is that what I think it is?

Yes, it is.

Can't wait to eat off of those plates.

Family heirlooms.

So happy it's back.

Me too.

This fucking window.

Pishes are still in the same. Yeah, I know. I'm kind of letting.

Them soak. They've been soaking for three days.

Luck, luck, luck, ding. Luck, luck, luck, luck, luck. Oh,

I want everybody going out. I'm going to ask you one day.

I'm going to.

Go on to hear the patch. Are you all right? Family.

Feud.

I'm so sorry. I couldn't get some sick.

Get out of your way. No, sit. Come on. Please stay.

I love this show.

Me too. I've only ever seen the Steve Harvey one.

Really?

Yeah.

Oh, this is classic. This is Richard Dawson. Fashion icon. An OG.

Yeah. He has some spectacular sideburns. It.

Sure does. Man, my family would have killed on this show.

They are absolute vultures, especially my mother. What about you?

Your parents are the game people.

We don't really keep in touch anymore.

I'm sorry. That's got to be hard.

Not really, no. I mean, even if we were, they probably wouldn't be into this.

Kind of like the opposite of fun.

I'll tell you what. You could be on our team.

Be me and you. And Nina and my mom.

Nina's parents don't make the cut.

They died when she was a kid.

It's awful. Yeah.

It's a crazy story, actually. They died in a house fire.

No one knows how it was started. Nina made it out. Her parents didn't.

For a long time, the police actually thought that she ...

Can you imagine living with that in your entire life?

That'd be terrible. What would be terrible?

There she is. Hey.

Name a cartoon bird.

What are you doing up?

What do you mean? I can say the same about you.

I'm watching Family Feud.

At 2:00 AM. You.

Want to get on this? Some dawson? I want to get some Dawson on you?

No, I'm good. Maybe it's 2:00 AM.

Okay. I'm going to go to bed. Let me know how it ends.

Goodnight.

I'll be right up.

Okay. Cartoon bird little Katie?

Three answers remaining.

It's late. I should probably get some sleep.

This isn't working. What? This isn't working.

So I'm going to need you to pack your stuff and leave first thing in the morning

before Cece wakes up so she doesn't get upset. No, Nina.

I didn't think anyone was going to be down here.

You told me I could use the screening room.

I'm going to need the phone back as well. Please, Nina.

I will do anything to make it up to you, I promise.

Can you just give me one more chance?

Fine. One week. Okay.

But you're going to have to dress appropriately around the house from now on.

Yeah.

Of course. I'm sorry.

Oh, Millie.

Stay the fuck away from my husband.

And so my nanny's going on and on about her dead dog.

And I don't mean to be in the ITC age.

But since when did I become a canine grief counsellor? Meanwhile,

Emma is late for school. I'm missing yoga. Yoga.

Means to me. It's everything. That's so unfortunate. Thank you.

Well, we are going to be looking for a nanny soon. Oh,

I know Nina, you're pregnant. I knew it. No, not yet.

We are making a plan.

We've been going to see this incredible fertility specialist in the city. Cool.

Andrew insists on sparing no expense. Of course. So yeah.

That's wonderful.

Yeah. We will find you the most fantastic nanny, I promise. Absolutely. Oh,

this is.

Cece's paediatrician. I will be right back. Oh.

Fill her tea.

Oh my God, I'm so sorry. I really thought she was pregnant. No,

you were all thinking it. I mean, have you seen her skin? God,

and how about those roots? My God,

do you think she would take better care of herself for Andrew?

He's so fucking hot. And especially because they have an airtight prenup. Okay.

You know she did not have a dime when they got married.

She'll be sleeping on the street if she doesn't get her shit together. Cece,

would he get custody considering? Of course. After what she did.

How many months she spent in that awful psych ward? Nine. Nine. Nine.

Nine months. I mean, good Lord. I do not know how he puts up with her.

Because he is a saint. He's a hot saint.

Hot Saint Andrew. What it is?

Oh, we're just talking spring fundraiser. Please.

Save us with a theme.

Idea. Stop marking.

Those women were right about one thing.

Andrew was definitely a saint for Stanley by Nina.

I can't believe she lied about being pregnant.

Everything she's told me is a lie. It wasn't the hormones making her crazy.

She actually is crazy. Poor Andrew. As soon as I save up enough money,

I am out of here.

Today wasn't a total disaster. Oh.

Thank you.

I'm going to need you to watch Cece next Saturday.

Andrew and I have an appointment in the city and I know it's your day off,

but I trust that it won't be a problem. Oh.

We'll have fun. Good.

Fucking.

Psychosis.

Hey, Lexi. It's Millie. Listen.

I really need to make some extra money so I can quit this job.

Do you think you could ask your husband if I could get a job at the warehouse?

I'll do anything. I'll clean. I'll send boxes. I'll scrub toilets.

I just really need to get out of here. You're leaving? What?

No, no, no. I'm going to make you lunch.

What are you in the mid for?

A bologna sandwich.

Okay. But you said you needed to get out of this place on the phone just now.

No, you misheard me.

One baloney sandwich come on right up. So

how's school this week? Learn anything fun or interesting?

It's school. It's not fun or interesting.

What about boys? Got any crushes?

No. How would you ask me that? I am just trying to make some small talk.

Forget it. I'm not hungry anyway.

You don't have to be my friend, you know. It's not part of your job. Well,

I'd like to be. Why? Because I like you.

No, you don't.

Do you want juice or water? Juice, please. Don't spill.

Juice is a privilege. I won't. Did you go to the salon today?

Yes.

You look very nice.

Thank you. Cici, would you like some dinosaur chicken nuggets and ketchup?

Ketchup.

Makes an ass. Yes, it does.

Cece, where did you find this troll? Were you in my room?

Cice, this troll is very special to me. I don't want you going into my room.

Do you understand? You need to stay out of the attic. So do you.

Hey, Cece. Can you go play in your bedroom for a little bit, please?

What.

Happened?

Premature ovarian insufficiency. We've been trying for years.

At least now we know.

Sorry.

Man, I've just always wanted a lot of kids. I got my whole soccer team full.

Nina and I were only children like you.

At least you have Cece. Of.

Course. Of course.

I know it sounds selfish. I love Cece.

I've just always wanted a child of my own Nina.

I didn't realise. Oh.

Cece is ... She's absolutely my daughter.

She's just not my biological daughter.

You're an amazing dad.

Fuck. I just really don't know how she's going to take this.

She's been so fragile lately.

I really don't think that she can handle the disappointment.

She is you. I don't think that I am enough.

Hello?

Andrew, are you okay? What?

Andrew, are you okay? What?

You overheard those PTA cunts saying that I'm crazy,

that I don't deserve my husband, that I belong in a nut house.

Andrew?

Let go with this.

Wrap this around.

In. Alive and well.

I cleaned up the mess from last night. Sorry,

I wasn't honest about the baby.

I guess I was trying to manifest

or something. It's okay. I get it.

I don't know how I'm going to face Andra's mother.

Anyway,

I realise I need to stop holding onto things and just start fresh.

So these are practically brand new and I want you to have them.

I can't.

No, seriously,

these are going to be thrown in a bin at goodwill.This look amazing on you.

Millie, take it. Thanks. Well,

Andrew took Cece did pancakes so you don't really have to worry about breakfast

this morning, but I do need a favour.

I need you to look into tickets for a musical called Showdown.

Andrew's been dying to see it and I want to do something to

make it up to him. Sure. This Saturday.

If you can manage and an overnight at a high-end hotel,

splurge on a suite, something romantic,

and Cece will be at a friend's house. I'll arrange for her to

be out of the house and you can just have the weekend to yourself.

That sounds great. I'll see what I can do.

You're a lifesaver, Millie. I don't know what I'd do without you.

You're with the Winchesters, right? Yeah. I'm with the latents.

Suzanne.

Right. Cici's not that good,

is she? Don't worry. No one gives her any shit.

Not after everything she's been through. What do you mean?

Seriously? Almost like a mom shit.

I know she spent some time in a psych warrant, but ...

Nina Winchester tried to drown her kid in a bathtub.

What? Yeah. It's like all the.

PTA bitches talk about. When Cici was a baby,

Nina threw her in a tub of running water,

then tried to off herself by swallowing a shit.

Tonne of pills. Luckily,

her husband got freaked out when he couldn't get ahold of her,

then called the police for a wellness check. It's like.

Fucked up, right? Great job, dancer. Thank you.

Let's get our belongings.

Your car smells like feet. Thank you.

Hey. What do you know about this family?

Sorry, no English.

Oh, bullshit.

I know you shouldn't be here.

Why? Leave him alone.

You've done business.

Talking ends up. What is this?

They're the Broadway tickets and the hotel reservation. For.

Saturday? Yeah. But why would I have you book tickets

for the day that I'm driving CC to arts camp in DC? Why would I do that?

I don't know what you did. No, I didn't. And I.

Assume that these are non-refundable now at this point. Nina,

I did what you asked me to do. Fine. They're going to come out of your paycheck.

And I'm so sorry about that,

but it was your mistake and you're going to have to cover the fee. Nina,

I can't afford that. I don't care. It was your mistake.

You're going to cover it. Nina, that's more than I have saved.

Hey. Hello.

Hi.

Just about clean out the floors, otherwise I want to get you more.

What's wrong?

Millie booked tickets for a non-refundable weekend for us that we can't

even use, and she's going to have to pay for it. Sorry.

No, she doesn't. That's okay.

We'll just call the credit card company and have her reversed. I.

Don't think that's a thing.

That is a thing. That's a thing. You don't have to pay for anything.

Thank you.

I'm sorry.

Sweetheart.

All this stuff for a week. I don't want her to get homesick.

Okay. Sorry. Shit. Okay. Sorry.

I am so sorry. I usually get dressed before I come out.

No, it's really my fault. I was actually just ...

I was coming to confess something to you.

I wanted to let you know that I could get the tickets refunded.

Shit.

Yeah.

So I think you should take them and go to the show with a friend and stay in

the room, charge whatever you want. Room service. I want you to enjoy yourself.

That is really nice of you, but

I don't have anyone I can.

Bring. You got to have somebody.

I wish I did, but I don't.

Okay. Well, how about you and I go?

We can come back tonight.

I can sweeten the deal a little bit, throwing a sliced pizza,

maybe a hot apple cider.

I'll just tell Nina that I exchanged the tickets and I can take her next.

Week. No, I can't have you do that.

Come on. We could both use the night out. I know we could. Why not? I mean,

it's supposed to be a great show.

Okay.

Great. We're going.

Cinnamon.

I'm your kid.

Great.

Dress.

Don't work. You try to push me out by just fun mom.

Thanks for coming.

I live the green breath to keep me out.

I'm hungry. Yeah, I'm.

Hungry. I could eat.

Yes? Yeah. Isn't pizza a part of this deal? Yeah.

It was.

Yeah? Yeah.

You know what? I got a better idea.

Holy shit, that was amazing.

It was, wasn't it?

Yeah.

Yeah.

This place is really fancy.

It's charming in an old New York kind of way. Yeah.

I don't really know what I should order.

Why would we just get one of everything? Everything? Everything.

We can't.

Do that. Yeah, we can.

You like my chinnies?

I guess. I don't know. I.

Guess we'll find out.

Yeah.

It's a new adventures.

Cheers.

I mean, you're funny. You're caring. You're great with kids.

I just don't understand why you're cleaning people's houses.

You should be out there living your best life.

And have you ever thought about what you want to do with your time on this

earth?

I don't know. No, not really.

Why not?

What about you? Are you living your best life doing ...

I don't even know what you do.

I run a data processing company that my father left me. Basically,

I get paid a lot of money to do really boring shit. Gotcha. I mean,

all I've ever really wanted to do is to be a husband and a father, honestly.

That's really sweet.

What about you? Do you want kids?

Yeah. Someday. The right person,

of course.

I mean, I feel like I won the lottery with Nina,

and I should feel like I'm living my best life. I bet.

You're not.

I love my wife. I really do.

I just feel like she's angry all the time and I don't know why.

I feel like every conversation we have is in a tirade.

It makes you feel any better same. I mean.

She used to be so different.

She was loving and she was kind and she was generous.

She was affectionate. All I want to do is make her happy.

And I genuinely don't know how.

Andrew, it's not you. I actually noticed that. I'm sorry. No, it's okay.

I mean, I see the way that she treats you in it. I hate it.

I hate it. I feel like I'm letting you down.

You're not.

But you sure there's a dance floor in there.

You win for dancing?

Should we hit it?

Yeah. Let's dance.

Will your eyes return to mind?

Will all day start to shine?

It was winter. Now let's move right.

Let the birds see.

I don't suppose you feel sober to have to drive us home.

I don't really know.

I think we got a problem.

And you're all set. They're not joining, but they're on the same floor.

Shut my phone's done.

Oh.

There you go. Thank you. Of course. Have a great day.

Thank you.

I'll see you in the morning. Goodnight.

Do not blow up your life.

Oh, shit.

I know. Hey,

what's wrong?

She doesn't mean it. I'll talk to her.

Andrew, she does.

Millie, come here.

She wants to destroy my life and I don't know why.

No, she doesn't. I will talk to her.

I know you think that I can do better, but I need this job. I can't lose it.

I do not want to go back.

Go back where?

You're not going to lose your job. Everything is going to be okay.

I promise you. Okay? Don't cry.

It's okay. I'm.

Okay.

Only oncece would pull me twice.

He's coming home early. So you have to be here home.

Is she going? Okay.

This is going to sound really cheesy,

but I didn't think anybody could look so beautiful in the morning.

Nina.

Can't ever know.

And this can't her happen again.

I really wish things were different. I wish I would've met you before.

Me too. Are you okay?

Yeah.

Nina.

Nina. I'm going to go get changed.

I'll start making lunch just in case she comes by.

Fuck it.

Hello? Anybody home?

Welcome home. Thank you. Lunch is almost ready. Oh,

boy. Hi.

Hey, sweetheart. Hi.

What are you doing?

I was just fixing the drain in the upstairs. Yo guys' bathroom.

It's a bit clogged.

I knew you would try to do that. I said the plumber's coming on Tuesday.

No, I know. I was just feeling extra manly today.

Okay. Yeah.

How's the trip? How's easy?

She's good. Listen,

I'm very sorry about last night. It was a very long drive.

I was very tired. I do not sleep well in hotels, turns out.

And I should not be left alone with my phone. So lesson learned,

it's a new day. Please accept my apologies.

Yeah, it's okay.

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. It's okay.

Let's get some food in here. Yeah. Yeah. All right.

This looks fantastic.

Yes.

Millie.

How was your night off?

My best friend Lexi took me to Peter Lever.

She had a gift certificate. It was really nice. Had a lot of sides.

I don't really eat meat. This looks incredible. So thank you.

I don't know why, but my keys just never turn out. I've been meaning to ask you,

did you learn how to cook while you were in prison?

You knew she was in prison for 10 years before she came to work with us.

Right?

I think it's brave making a new start in a

new town. I'm glad that we could be a part of your journey.

Oh.

We need a restock of all of Cece's favourites before she gets home.

You haven't really been keeping up with that. And could you ... Sorry.

Could you use my car for running errands from now on until you can save up to

get something nicer?

I'm afraid yours is becoming an unwelcome topic of conversation. There you go.

You know what I mean?

You okay? Yeah.

I had it all wrong. Nina was never one of those women just going with her gut.

She knew. The whole fucking time she knew I needed this job and couldn't leave,

no matter how shitty she made my life.

What kind of bitch does something like that?

Hello, Millie. Hi. Set the newest phone.

What do you think of that camera? It's pretty great, right?

I wouldn't know. I only use it for work. Well, still, you're very trusting.

What do you mean?

Pumpkin.

Most of the nannies won't take the phone because they don't want every text,

every call, every place you go tracked. But I mean, you have nothing to hide,

so.

Good for you.

And that's when I realised that Nina knew everything.

Living Callaway.

Yeah?

Hands against the car, please. What? What? Side hands against the car. Oh,

what did I do? This car's been reported stolen. What? No.

No, this is my boss's car.

Thank you.

Sorry.

Sorry to tell you the truth about prison.

I was in high school and it was a mistake and-.

You don't have to explain anything. The past is in the past.

Andrew, she knows. I know.

Nina. Nina, come down here.

What the hell.

Kind of stunt was that?

I know you took her to the city.

I know you used the hotel room and I know that you

fucked her.

You're imagining things again. Oh,

of course.

I am.

I imagine your parole officer's going to be really interested to know that you

no longer have a job

or a place to live and that you stole thousands of dollars

worth of my clothes out of my closet.

You told.

Me that I could take them. You said you didn't want them anymore.

And off to prison, you'll come. Enough.

Nina, I don't know who you are.

And quite frankly, your cruelty.

It makes me sick. And I'm sorry, Nina, but I would like you.

I would like you to leave.

What? I can't sit here and watch you destroy this poor girl's life.

I won't allow it. Please leave my house.

Our house. It's my house. This is our house.

My house. You can't do that.

No.

Please.

Leave now.

Should I compacting your things? What?

Should I cut backing your things?

Bug you.

How are we doing?

I need you to know that it's not your fault. This was a long time coming. Okay.

Why about CC? Don't worry. I'm talking to my lawyers tomorrow.

I'm going to get her back here. Make sure she's safe.

Start looking for a new job.

What are you talking about?

My parole comes with conditions.

I haven't felt this way about somebody in a very long time, possibly ever.

And I really want to help you out. I want to help you out any way I can.

I want you to stay here with me. I want that too.

Got me in stock here.

Wow, that's the A plus oral hygiene.

Beauty. Yes, power. A smile.

Is it sword?

That's my mom's favourite quote. She is obsessed with this smile.

It's very cheesy. Yeah.

What do you want? Really? Are you okay? Fuck.

What happened?

Trying to do breakfast and bed,

and then I saw the creepy groundskeeper guy just starting at me through the

window.

I don't know if that asshole. Hang. Hey, come here.

Get you a shit and get out of here. Okay? We don't need you anymore.

You're fired. Fired. Got that?

Fuck that guy, right? Never said when you wanted him around so much.

Could never stand him.

I'm sorry. It's your mom's good china.

It's okay. I don't want you to worry about cleaning or cooking

or anything like that.

You can touch my air.

Don't throw any of these out. Okay?

Yeah.

I got a plate guy. It's real good at putting them back together.

I'm sorry.

It's okay. You learn.

Welcome home. Hey. Hi.

Plates are still dirty.

I want to cut myself washing them.

Oh.

Yeah.

I don't want that.

Dinner smells really good. It.

Does, doesn't? Yeah.

What.

Do you say we put a pen in dinner for a little bit?

Sure. Yeah? Yeah.

How do you feel about champagne?

I mean, are we still used there?

Yeah. I'd be hyperbatic.

Bubbles. Bubbles.

Ready?

Cheers. Cheers.

What do you think? You like it? It's really bubble.

Andrew?

Andrew, I'm stuck.

Andrew, can you open the door? Andrew, can you hear me?

Can you let me out?

I will. Just not yet.

What do you mean? Are you talking about Andrew? Let me know. Andrew, come on.

Is this a game?

I wish it was.

What? What are you talking about? Andrew opened the door.

Andrew. Open the door.

Andrew. Andrew loving out of here.

Oh my God, that's Gazelle out of here.

Dear Cece. If you're reading this,

I'm either dead or you just turned 18. Either way,

I needed you to know that your mother was a fucking idiot.

Full stop.

What do you expect from a girl whose parents died when she was eight and spent

the rest of her childhood in shitty foster homes? I did not,

as Andrew likes to insinuate,

have anything to do with that fire that killed them.

I love my parents more than anything in the world, and for a long time,

I wish I'd gone right up with them, but I didn't.

So I had to keep living. Abandonment issues,

trust issues, self-esteem issues? I filled the whole bingo cart.

I'm not sure if it was a miracle or just dumb luck that I survived my childhood,

but I eventually scholarshipped my way into law school and I

almost made it to the other side,

almost. But there was that married professor who knocked me up.

He didn't want anything to do with us.

Sometimes I think about that law degree I bailed on whether it would've made a

difference in the end. Nina,

get in here with the gravy spreadsheets. Come in.

Is there a way I can give someone for her money? Will.

You ask yourself, will this arbitration ever end? There they are. Hey.

Jesus Christ, Nina.

Go clean yourself up. God. Sorry.

The.

Fuck? Right?

It's amazing what you'll trade away for the sweet relief of health insurance and

childcare.

And it was that exact moment.

He came into my life. Hi.

I'm so sorry about Lynch. The guy can give her an asshole.

That's why he's my lawyer.

Yeah.

Are you okay?

No, I'm sorry. Yeah, I'm okay.

I just feel really bad about what happened, and I'd love to take you to lunch.

Oh.

You don't have to do that.

I want to.

At the time, I thought he was so goddamn charming, humble,

handsome, a million dollar smile.

Hey, I was thinking maybe we could go out sometime. My mother loves children.

She could babysit, but of course your daughter could come with us.

I would love that.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It took him six days to get in my pants and six weeks to propose.

Honestly, I would've said yes halfway through that first fucking lunch.

How was I supposed to resist a night in shining armour?

The house should have been a tip off. Storybook kingdom,

he built some mysterious fiance named Kathy who jilted him.

I should have asked what happened to her, but I didn't. Her loss, I thought.

Wow. Something smells amazing. What is that?

I think what you're smelling is the vanilla cardamom that coffee cake I just

made and you're going to be like.

Anything. Oh, I'd love to be. I hate to break it to you, sweetheart,

but your roots are making a break for.

It. Well, good news.

I just made a salon appointment with Mark and he's going to beat it back in

today.

I love Mark for that.

Hi. I'm so sorry I'm late. Oh, that's okay.

Is that by that Thai place you like? Let me make you a cocktail.

There she.

Is. Hi. Hi. Hi.

With someone's silly goose and forget to get their roots done.

I got caught in the park with CCA before I dropped her off at Lance. I'm sorry.

I'm going to reschedule. I get this stuff on the table.

Hey, before you do that, you think you can give me a hand with something?

What?

I have this last minute meeting with the board and there's these notes.

I cannot seem to find them. I think they're upstairs in the storage room. Right.

Now? Yeah.

Can you give me a hand?

You know it.

Thank you.

I'll go to the light on you.

Be right up.

Okay.

Babe, there's no files in here.

I know. Babe.

Andy. Andy? I'm here.

Andy, it's locked.

I am very disappointed, Nina.

What the fuck are you talking about?

Your hair is a privilege and it needs to be cared for.

My hair?

Are you aware of how embarrassing it is to have your wife walking around town

with her roots showing?

I'm going to make another appointment. I told you.

I need you to be better. For the both of us, I really do.

Andy, I'm going to get my fucking roots fixed, okay?

But you can let me out of the room now, please.

I will. Just not yet.

I need you to understand that there are consequences to your actions.

What are you fucking talking about?

I have an envelope, which I will be sliding under the door.

Now listen very carefully, please.

I need you to pluck 100 hairs

from your scalp with the roots intact. What? Nita?

I need to see those follicles.

Okay, babe. You got me. That was good.

You got me. Please let me out.

Once you've done that,

please put them back in the envelope and slide it under the door,

and then we can discuss your freedom.

Andy. This isn't funny. Andy.

I'm not doing this anymore. Please let me out of the fucking room.

I'm so sorry. Andy.

And I love you so much.

Babe. Babe. Andy.

Andy. Sit down. And my please.

Fuck.

Who was this man I married? What had I done

to deserve this? No food.

Three tiny bottles of water.

The only bathroom was a bucket in the closet.

I thought back to when it was just me and you, Cece.

I had no idea how good we had it.

Even if we were constantly on the brink of financial disaster.

Now, what choice did I have but to obey this fucker

if I ever wanted to see you again?

Andrew. I did everything that you asked me to do.

Can you let me out, please?

One of the strands didn't have a father cold. So you have to start again.

What? Andrew. Andrew, please.

Please be more careful this time.

Andrew.

Please. Andrew, please. Andrew.

No.

Oh.

This was for your own good. If you'd let me,

I can help you become a better person.

DC.

Oh, baby. I come here. Come here.

If I were the police, maybe I would've thought the same thing,

that I had drugged and tried to drown my baby,

that I had swallowed a bottle of pills and tried to off myself too.

No one would believe my husband was a cruel, sadistic monster.

How could a man that handsome, that successful,

that well love be anything but a saint?

There's nothing in that attic except boxes and papers, Nina.

When you're having delusions, they can feel very real, even when they're not.

While they pumped me full of antipsychotics, antidepressants,

all I could think about was you.

After nine months,

I realised the only way to get back to you was to admit what I'd

done so I fell on my knees, confessed everything,

and begged for my freedom.

We're going to be so.

Happy, Zena. It's always your father rules.

But by that time, I understood I'd never be free.

No matter how hard I tried to prove I was the happiest,

most perfect wife in the entire world,

Andrew had convinced all those adoring shit for brain vipers

that I was crazy, dangerous, unfit to raise my own daughter.

And he was crowned husband of the year for sticking by his unhinged wife.

Of course, he wanted his own baby,

but there was no way I was going to let him plant his evil seed in me.

I snuck away to the city, got an IUD,

the same doctor I eventually blackmailed to lie and tell Andrew that I was

fresh out of eggs. Anything was an excuse to lock me up,

leaving the lights on. When you spilled your juice at the breakfast table,

and anytime I fought back,

he made sure to remind me that he held all the cards.

Enzo was my only connection to the outside world, the only one who believed me.

He tried to help us escape. He got us fake passports,

but Andrew found them in my drawer and back to the institution I went.

Every asset was in his name. I had no money, no credit, no family, no friends.

I was a psych ward frequent flyer with zero chance of custody.

If I tried to run,

Andrew would hunt me down and drag his back and everyone would call him a hero.

I was trapped.

There was no chance in hell he would ever let me leave the marriage alive.

And if I died, what would become of you? What had I done,

bringing this man into your life?

And then it dawned on me. Andrew did have a weakness.

His need to be adored.

So I started making a plan.

You went away again. I.

Know. And now I'm back. Andrew found the passports.

Look, I know a guy you could help.

I think that would only make things worse for me.

I could help you.

You need to stay out of this as it was.

To me carefully. All right.

I lost a sister to a man like Andrew and I will not let this happen again.

So now you go, you back your back. You take Sissy and you leave right now.

I will take care of Andrew.

No. Andrew is going to leave me.

How?

Willie was exactly Andrew's type, pretty, smart, blonde,

all alone in the world, someone he'd want to save.

Disowned by her parents, fired from her last job, broke, no friends,

living in her car,

and the crown jewel out on parole after serving 10 years

of a 15 year sentence and not for drugs or drug driving or some other teen

bullshit. She was in prison for murder.

My plan was to hire a pretty girl to replace me.

But once I met Millie, I came up with a better plan.

Anzo begged me to find another way to leave Millie out of all this,

but I knew it was the only way I could truly be free from Andrew.

I made him promise not to interfere. It was her or it was Cece and me.

He reluctantly agreed, but said he would stay to keep an eye on her.

Part of me hopes you'll never read this, but if you do,

I'm glad you know the whole story now.

I just needed you to know I wasn't a bad person.

Hiring Millie was the only way I could keep you safe and set us both free,

if we get lucky enough to make it all the way to free.

And I figured if anyone could take care of this situation, it was her.

Millie. Millie, please stop. Please.

Open the dryer.

I can't do that.

Why not?

What? I will. Just not yet.

What the fuck do you want?

It's irreplaceable, Millie.

What?

My grandmother, she brought this china all the way from London.

And my mother ...

She served every single holiday meal on it with not so much as a single chip.

And then you drop it like a careless

child. You drop it. And on top of that,

you don't even clean it.

It was an accident, Andrew.

Family heirlooms are a privilege, Millie.

And now one of mine is in 21 pieces and you didn't even

clean it. Look out of your fucking psychopath.

I will let you out, but first you need to atone.

So what you're going to do is you're going to take this piece right here in my

hand and you're going to carve 21 lines into your stomach,

one for every piece that you fucking broke.

Once you've done that, we can discuss your freedom.

If you don't do it properly, you are just going to have to do it again,

so I suggest you do it right the first time.

Your fucking dreams.

And I need these to be long and deep cuts. Oh,

and please slide the piece under the door when you're done. I'll be watching.

Andrew.

Andrew.

Andrew.

It's pretty clear now that Nina knew everything about me from the moment I

walked through her door. It's funny.

The boy I went to prison for was a lot like Andrew. Stupid rich,

good looking, adored by everyone, a saint.

I didn't mean to kill him, but I'm not sorry I did. Lily,

what did you do? Oh my God, what did you do?

I was trying to do a good thing, but my roommate denied everything.

I don't know why. Everyone believed the rich kids,

not the scholarship charity case, even my parents.

The only option was to take a plea deal, manslaughter, 15 years.

I made parole after 10. It wasn't a smooth transition into the real world.

I guess I don't handle creeps very well. Keep your hands on.

This Charlie fucking freak. Nina was looking for an escape hatch.

I was it. Good for her, I guess.

Now I'm the butterfly in the box.

All of those years I persisted. I survived.

I fought back. But in the end,

there's only one way out for girls like me.

Surrender and hope for the best.

Andrew, I did it. Andrew, you can let me out now.

I had two days left. I know.

But we have to go. Where?

We are going to find somewhere new to live. Just the two of us.

We're free.

What? What?

What about Millie?

Millie's going to stay with Daddy.

I think we should take her with us.

Millie can take care of herself.

Good morning, Sleepyan. How are you?

Okay.

I really do want a life with you. I really do.

You just need to learn that there's consequences to your actions.

Just think about it.

You'll have everything you've ever wanted. An education,

financial stability, beautiful home,

family. This is not what you want.

I do want this thing.

So I.

Just not with you asshole.

Good. Good day. Go on.

Come here.

Over the fucking door. No.

I'm going to call the cops and you're going to rot in fucking praise.

Open the fucking door.

Fuck. Let me out.

I need.

A fucking sandwich. Open the door.

Let me the fuck out. Watch.

Millie?

Millie. Millie, you there?

I'm here.

I'm so sorry, Millie. I really fucked up.

I did a really terrible thing.

I have such a bad temper sometimes. But I want to be better.

I know I can be better. I want you to help me be better.

I need someone to help me. You opened this door, please.

I'm so thirsty. Can you please open the door so I can get some water? I will.

You will?

Yeah.

Just not yet.

I want you to do something for me first.

What do you need me to do?

I need you to pull out your front tooth.

What?

I think it would be good for you to be without that smile that makes all the

bitches in the neighbourhood just fall under your fucking toxic

spell

to be without that smile that your mother loves so much.

Billy, I'm not doing that.

I thought you said she wanted my help and I was here offering it to you,

but if you don't want it, I'll go.

You're out of your fucking mind. I'm not pulling my tooth out.

No, Andrew, I've been kind of locked up in a room and the idea of consequences

has been on my mind.

Okay. What if I

sweeten the pot? You know the teapot.

What are you doing?

Mother and Chester's heirloom dishes are really,

really fucking nice. Mary, stop it.

Millie, stop. These cups, they're like little doll cups, Andrew.

Millie, stop it right.

Now. Stop it right now. Milly. Stop it.

Susie would've loved to drink juice out of these.

Millie, please stop it. Stop it, stop it.

Millie. What the gravy bowl? I fucking love gravy.

I had no idea they made these. Please, Millie. Millie, Billy, stop it right now.

Please stop. Stop. Millie, please. Little plates just ricking.

Stop it right there. Millie, what do you want? I'll give you anything.

If you want fucking Mighty, I'll give you money. I hope your plate.

Guy is really fucking good. What the fuck? You what? Okay,

so we're bargaining now. That's a really good sign, but what I want you to do,

Andrew, is pull out your fucking tooth.

I'm going to fucking kill you.

Not if I kill you first.

Fuck you.

Sunita didn't tell you why I was in prison, huh?

I was in prison for murder.

What are you doing? Billy.

What are you doing? Billy. Millie.

Millie?

Okay. Okay.

Okay. Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. Okay. Okay. Hey,

I'll do it. I'll do it. Okay, wait.

I want to watch.

Okay.

Put some elbow grease into it.

I did it. Lift me up.

Slide.

It under the door.

Here.

Please let me out.

Come back in the morning.

What? No, Millie, come back.

No Millie. Let me out. Let me out.

He wants to step into my shoes.

Or have the Coke flavour my umbrella with arsenic.

What are the objections that I live to see?

James' chronicle. Die and spa looking around.

Deemed the look on the Frenchman's faces on 23 Rampage.

Who is the man who has done this?

Hey, it's Nina. You okay? I'm going to get you out of here.

Nina, what the fuck are you doing? I miss you so much.

You knew she'd do this to me. Thank you.

Are you going to do Millie?

Millie. Motherfuck. Millie.

Millie. Come on, baby. Come on, Millie.

Ah, what the fuck? Millie.

Millie. Come on, Millie.

Come on, baby. Millie.

Lilia. Return to mine.

Will you come the fuck out, Millie? Come on, baby.

I need you, Millie. Millie. Millie, get the fuck out of there.

Millie, this is so fucking Mark.

Millie's young.

So he came back for nothing.

Yes, I did. Yeah.

Sorry.

Goodness.

I fucked up. Really bad. Yeah.

I can admit when I'm wrong, you know that.

Just sweep this under the rug and weed.

Start fresh. Pretend like this didn't happen, please.

I'm sorry. I still love you.

I mean, you're still just a

cute helpless secretary I saw sitting there in that office.

You're leaky boobs.

You were so cute. And I just try to help you.

I just try to help you bring

that baby into the world with no hope of the future at all.

What are you going to do out there? You can't, Nina.

You can't find this? I.

Might.

At this age, I don't think so, babe.

One call and Millie is back in prison rotting away.

One week on your own and you will be begging me

to take you back. So just, just stay.

Please. Just stay.

Sweetheart.

Everything.

You have is a lie.

Your daddy just handed you your career. Your child isn't even really yours.

You have a wife who fucking hates you and all these years I've been watching you

dance around like a fucking clown just to get a little tiny semblance of

affection from your cunt mother. And you know what? I almost feel sorry for you.

But I'd rather be dead.

Then spend another day with you, your fucking monster.

It would be my pleasure.

Pleasure's all high.

What are you doing?

He fell trying to change a light bulb. You know how he was.

Everything had to be perfect.

Run. Don't come back.

You didn't come, I didn't.

No one's going to believe that he fell changing a light bulb, Mina.

I guess we're going to find out.

Go.

You didn't deserve any of this.

Neither did you.

Actions have consequences, Andrew.

Enzo, it's done. I'm going to need your help.

Cleaning up. This must be quite a shock.

You said you just returned home this evening after visiting your daughter at

camp and your housekeeper had the week off. That's right. Yeah.

Do you have any idea why your husband might have decided to change a light bulb

in the middle of the night?

I guess he liked things to be a certain way.

Everything perfect.

He had quite a deep cut on his neck.

"You don't normally see that from a fall.

""I actually knew your husband a little bit." He was engaged in my sister.

Kathleen. Kathy.

Eight years ago, she showed up at my doorstep in the middle middle of the night,

and she was never the same after that.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Must have been quite a violent fall, lots of impact.

Skin breaks, bones break,

teeth break.

Seems to me this is just one of those freak household accidents.

Sometimes bad things happen to good people.

We gather here today to mourn the tragic passing of Andrew Winchester,

devoted son, dedicated husband and father,

respected business leader, and true pillar of the community.

His untimely death has left us all with a sense of shock that such a

vital and caring man could suddenly be taken from us.

We struggle in these times to understand God's plan

and it is natural to question God's power in times of grief,

but we must never lose our faith in God's love. Thank.

You for coming. Thank you. Hi.

Nina. I'm so sorry. Now,

are you sure you're still going to sell the house?

What are you going to do with yourselves all the way out in California? Oh,

I think we'll manage. I'm so sorry about your son.

What a terrible accident. He had a beautiful smile, didn't he?

Oh, best. You know,

they told me he was missing a tooth when they found him.

My God. Oh my God. Yeah. Did you know that?

Did you? That a tooth was calm.

If you don't take care of your teeth,

you lose the privilege of having them because teeth

are a privilege.

My condolences take good care.

This is how you allow her to dress for her father's funeral.

Hey.

Excuse me.

I told you to run.

Can't run.

Or parole, remember?

Make a life for yourself.

Wow.

Well, tell me about yourself really. Well,

I definitely didn't plan on being a housemate.

Sort of just fell into my lap and I realised I really enjoy it.

We're the right families, of course.

Nina Winchester recommended you very highly.

She suggested you, actually.

This is when Chester was a pleasure to work for her.

I have to warn you.

My husband is a

hard man.

To please.

So do you think you can help? When would you like me to start?

Why does it feel so good?
