Original subtitles

Her name was Yasmin Davis.

I recognize her from town.

She died from a gunshot wound to the chest.

Call the mayor. He should be informed right away.

You got it, detective.

Hi, babe.

Hey, you. I just wanted to make sure you got into Rivertown OK.

I just made it to Andrea's Cafe.

Good. Well, uh, I miss you already.

The house feels empty without you.

I miss you too. But three weeks will go by fast.

I'm so excited to see Andrea! I missed her in Philadelphia.

Yeah! How long has it been?

Four years now since she's moved back.

Well, I will let you head in. But text me later, OK?

Bye!

Andrea!

Grace, you made it!

Oh, it's so good to see you!

This place is beautiful!

It's even better than in the pictures!

Thank you! Here, sit down.

- How are you? Was the drive OK? - It's great.

- Uh, let me order you a coffee. - Oh, thanks.

Uh, hey! Can we get her a coffee, please?

Thank you.

Thank you so much for getting me this job with Alex Turner.

It came at the perfect time.

No problem. I'm just glad it worked out.

I still can't believe he became Mayor.

Have you talked to Alex since high school?

Not at all.

I haven't seen him since he graduated,

and he was a few years ahead of us.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Oh, there he is now.

God, he looks stressed.

I would not want to be in his shoes right now.

Why? What do you mean?

Do you remember Craig Davis from school?

Yeah. He lived a few blocks over from me.

His sister Yasmin was found dead in the woods

on the outskirts of town.

- Oh, my God. That's terrible. - Yeah, I know.

And she was working with Alex in the mayor's office.

She was really well-liked.

How long ago did they find her?

About four months ago. But they still haven't arrested anyone.

I mean, people want answers.

Things like that just don't happen here.

Hey. Alex.

The regular?

Yes, please. That'd be great..

Grace. Wonderful to see you.

You too.

- It's been a long time. - Yeah!

I'm looking forward to meeting Emily and Andy in person.

They're looking forward to it as well.

They liked you a lot when you guys Facetimed.

I feel like we've done a thousand interviews

for a permanent nanny.

Um, Emily's very protective of Andy.

And so she's very careful who she lets close to him.

Well, that's awesome. I'm happy to help.

I'm sorry. My phone's been blowing up nonstop lately.

Oh. Emily can't pick up Andy from school today.

I'm gonna call my mom and see if she...

Why don't I pick him up?

That's why I'm here, right?

I mean...

It's no trouble at all. Seriously.

I can pick up Andy and I'll just unpack later when he's in bed.

That'd be an amazing help. Thank you.

Thanks, Andrea.

You're welcome.

Uh, look, I've gotta run.

Here are your housekeys.

I'll have our housekeeper, Louise, give you a call

with the details about Andy's school.

I've already added you to the pickup list.

But call me or Louise if you have any trouble.

Got it.

Right. I'll see you tonight.

Great. Thanks.

Thank you, Andrea.

Bye!

See! I told you! It's gonna be great.

- Gonna be great. - Yeah!

Wow. Your house is gorgeous, Andy.

It's all right.

It's a little more than all right,

Oh, my God!

When are Mom and Dad gonna be home?

I'm not sure exactly.

They should be home in time for dinner, though.

Wanna see my rock collection?

Sure.

Not so fast.

Hi, Grandma.

You must be the temporary nanny?

Yes. I'm Grace.

Grace Clarkson, right?

Well, Grace Anderson now.

I'm Vivian, Alex's mother.

It's good to meet you.

I remember your parents.

We sold their house when they moved to Philadelphia.

Oh! Small world.

And you need to work on your school project;

your presentation is right around the corner.

How far along are you?

I haven't started.

Why don't I help out? I'm a third-grade teacher.

So I'm a pro.

Why don't we come up with something together? Hm? Yeah?

So, you used to be a teacher?

I still am! But I'm a writer too,

so I'm gonna focus on that for now.

So, you need a school project, huh?

Well, it should be something fun.

What are you interested in? Volcanos? Space?

Colin! Can we have pizza for dinner tonight?

I will see what I can whip up.

Hi, I'm Colin. House chef.

Hi, I'm Grace.

Nice to meet you.

You too.

Mhm.

So, you like pizza, huh?

You know, I went to Rome a few years ago.

Best pizza of my life.

I'm Italian like my dad. That's why we love pizza.

That's awesome!

Hey, maybe you can do your project on your ancestry.

I could help you and we make a whole family tree.

I do it with my students in school every year.

We could even get a mail-in DNA test,

so you know what percentage Italian you are!

Cool!

Oh, I didn't see you there.

Oh, is that a family tree? How fun!

You must be Louise.

It's nice to finally meet you.

Yes. Lovely to have you here.

You know, Andy's been struggling a little

since our last nanny left.

It'll be good to get him back into a routine again.

Yeah.

Alex called to let me know that he and Emily

are on their way home. Dinner's about to be served.

Perfect. Andy's just washing his hands.

We'll meet in the dining room.

Great.

So where do you usually sit?

I usually sit there. Dad sits there, Mom sits there

and Grandma sits there.

Guess I'll sit here!

That's a great point.

So we agree. He's on the invite list.

Yes.

Hi, Grace, nice to finally meet you in person.

Andrea had nothing but lovely things to say about you.

We're so glad she suggested you for the job.

Blast from the past!

I'm happy to be here.

Hello!

Hey, it's me.

How's everything going?

It's really great.

Andy is awesome and Emily is so sweet.

We're all getting along really well here.

I'm glad. I finally have someone on the inside.

What do you mean?

The Turners are really secretive.

I've always been curious about what goes on

behind closed doors.

You are so nosey. I'm not going to spy on them for you.

Anyways, everyone else in the house seems really nice.

I think I'll like it here.

Good. You should come by the cafe tomorrow.

I will! I'll stop by after I drop Andy off at school.

Perfect. I'll see you then.

Bye!

Grace.

How you settling in?

You scared me.

Sorry, I was just sneaking out for a smoke.

It's no problem.

Andy's a great kid, huh?

Yeah. He's a little shy, but he'll warm up.

How long have you been working here?

About six months.

Any tips while I'm here?

Yes. Don't get on Vivian's bad side.

Yeah. She doesn't seem very... warm.

Yeah. Well, don't take it the wrong way.

She's just like that. Alex would never admit it,

but Vivian's the one who calls the shots around here.

Hm! Good to know. Thanks.

No problem.

Thought you forgot about me for a second there.

It took longer than expected, dropping off Andy

because I was introducing myself to the teaching staff.

No problem. Here's your coffee.

That's why you're amazing.

I know. How was your first night at the Turners?

I want the tea.

It was good. Everyone's really nice. I was surprised.

You're working at the Turners' house? Since when?

Sorry, who are you?

I was Andy's nanny. Up until a couple weeks ago anyways.

Looks like it didn't take them long to replace me.

Victoria, you're the one who quit.

Grace hasn't done anything wrong.

Yeah, I didn't mean to step on anyone's toes.

You must have had to pull a lot of strings

to get hired into that household.

I'm not sure what you're getting at.

They needed a nanny and I'm here to help.

Yeah, sure.

Victoria, I think you need to give Grace a break.

What the hell was that? People are staring.

Don't take it personally.

Well, if she's so upset that I'm working there,

why did she quit in the first place?

She hasn't really been herself lately.

She's going through a hard time.

Why?

Yasmin was Victoria's best friend.

Oh.

- Oh! Hello, Grace. - Hi, Emily.

How are you enjoying being back in your hometown?

It feels good.

So, you're not missing home too much?

Not too much. I do miss James though.

But he has a meeting in a town close by,

so I'll see him when he passes through.

James is your husband, I suppose?

Yes! Sorry. Yes.

James Anderson.

I don't think you would know him. He's from Philadelphia.

It's not like Rivertown where everybody knows everybody.

I certainly don't miss that aspect of a small town.

What do you mean? Did something happen?

Not really. I just, um...

I just ran into your ex-nanny, Victoria?

Yeah. She seemed upset and things got a little tense.

People were staring.

I'm sorry. This town is full of gossip, so rumors will spread.

But they'll die down eventually.

Everyone is just a little on edge right now,

after what happened to Yasmin.

Especially Victoria.

If you don't mind me asking, why did Victoria quit?

Well, she wasn't with us a long time.

About six months or so?

It was her first nannying job and she ultimately decided

that it wasn't for her.

I understand that. Everyone deserves to discover

what they're truly passionate about.

Yes! Oh.

I'm sorry. I have to run.

Oh! Alex and I are working late tonight

so I gave Colin the night off. I hope you don't mind?

That's all right. Andy and I can order in.

Great. I'll see you later.

Hey!

What's going on?

I think I dreamed that someone was hiding in the shed.

It felt so real that I was scared to get my soccer ball.

Oh, no! You should have asked me.

You're heading out early today.

Yeah. I promised Andy we'd go play in the park before school.

Are you feeling any better?

Pardon?

Louise mentioned that you weren't feeling well last night.

Yes, right. Much better.

That's great. Well, I'd better get going.

Andy's waiting on me. I'll see you later.

Andy! Andy, what's wrong?

OK. All right. Just stay there. Stay there. It's OK.

Andy? Andy!

Where is he? Andy!

Emily!

It's OK. He's all right.

Are you OK, honey?

Grace! We got here as soon as we could.

What... what happened? Do we know who it is?

No, I didn't get a good look at them but...

Andy was the one who found her.

Just stay here, OK?

Grace, you poor thing. You must be so traumatized.

Dad's here. It's OK, OK? Dad's right here.

Just stay with the police; I'll be right back, OK?

The body's been identified.

It's Ms. Victoria Maynard.

No. No, no, no, no. It can't be.

How'd this happen?

We won't know exactly until we run some tests, but...

It seems that she slipped on some stones

getting out of her kayak and hit her head.

It's a tragic accident.

This is...this is unbelievable.

It's awful.

I'm taking Andy home. I'll stay with him.

Emily, I need you in the office.

The press is gonna be all over this.

No. I need to be with our son. He needs me more.

Of course. You're right. I'm sorry.

Grace, you can have the day off.

Um, is there anything we can do for you?

No. I...I'd rather stay busy, honestly.

OK.

Can I help out at the office today instead?

Um...

Uh, sure. I could use all the support I could get.

Emily, why don't you take my truck?

I need to speak with the detective

and Grace can drive you to town.

OK.

Excuse me.

Oh! Got the file here.

So, let's cross-reference from what we have.

Emily asked me to drop off your car.

Why aren't you with your family right now?

- Come on. - Shame on you.

I want to be home, but it's not an option right now.

Andy found Victoria's body this morning. He needs his dad.

Don't you think it kills me that I can't be with him?

I have a responsibility to this town.

First Yasmin, now Victoria.

What happened to Yasmin was terrible.

But it happened months ago.

And the sheriff is nowhere closer to solving it.

Add another death and the town is gonna want answers.

What happened to Victoria is very sad, of course.

But the girl fell.

Shouldn't have anything to do with you spending time

with your family when they need you.

Mom, wait!

Grace!

Hi, Andrea.

You look exhausted.

I was at the office all day with Alex.

The whole town's in an uproar. We had to turn off the phones.

I mean, can you blame them? People are scared.

To think we just saw Victoria yesterday.

Colin?

He's not supposed to be working at the Turners.

Looks like he's headed towards Victoria's house.

Why would he be going there?

Andrea.

Andrea, what are you doing?

Following him.

Are you sure you wanna do that?

Yes.

OK, well, I'm coming.

There he is! Is that Victoria's house?

Yeah. Why the hell is he going into her place?

And how does he have a key?

I don't know but he has no business going in there.

Did you see Colin this morning?

No. Emily gave him the night off,

so he didn't sleep at the Turners.

I don't know when he got home.

Stop it. The girl is dead.

Show some respect!

Goodnight.

Sorry.

It's been a long day for everyone.

Was she talking about Victoria?

Vivian was never fond of her.

And we just received more troubling news.

What happened?

Victoria was pregnant.

Hey Colin, do you have any...

Morning.

Oh, Hi, Louise.

I was just gonna ask Colin for breakfast to go for Andy.

Did you want a coffee?

I'm all right.

Yeah.

Where's Colin?

He's... unwell.

He insisted on working,

but I convinced him to sleep in this morning.

I don't mind helping out while he rests.

Is it about Victoria?

She didn't work here long but...

it was still a shock to hear what happened.

Of course. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Victoria and Colin were close.

He was an absolute mess yesterday.

Is there anything I can do to help?

No. Thank you. Also, it's best not to mention it to him,

especially with the news of her pregnancy.

Do you think he could have been the father?

Like I said, they were close.

Hello, Detective.

Yes, I'll be at the Turners all night.

All right; that's no problem. I'll see you later.

You could have at least given me a heads up,

instead of leaving me blindsided and looking foolish!

It was nothing, Emily!

Victoria and I kept in touch after she quit. You knew this!

What I didn't know was that you made plans to meet her

the very moment she ends up being found dead.

She wanted to discuss her new career plans.

OK? I was helping her.

But then I got scheduled on a conference call

in the morning so I had to reschedule.

That conference call was cancelled, Alex.

So you could've been literally anywhere!

I did not see Victoria. I swear to you!

First Yasmin, now Victoria.

Hey. Victoria's death was an accident.

That's what they said this morning in the paper.

This is nothing like what happened to Yasmin.

But Yasmin's killer is still out there.

This is just really scary, Alex.

Come here. It's gonna be OK. OK?

I...I gotta go back to the office.

Are you OK?

Oh! Yes. I'm fine.

Is Andy at Mark's house?

Yeah. I'm gonna pick him up in a few hours.

I'm sorry. It's my husband; I can call him back later.

When did you say he was getting into town again?

Tomorrow night. I'm meeting up

with him the next day before his flight.

I know it must be hard losing Victoria so suddenly.

So, if there's anything I can do...

anything at all, please let me know.

Thank you.

And he looked up to the sky and said...

"Goodnight, sky! Goodnight, stars."

And then he went to sleep in his favorite new place.

In the treehouse they built in the back yard.

The end.

I love when we come up with stories like this.

Yeah, and you're really good at it too.

Hey, guess what came in the mail today.

Your DNA test. So we can keep working

on your family tree project. What do you think?

Cool. And do you promise you'll come to my presentation?

Promise. Cross my heart and hope to die.

I'm here if you want to talk about anything.

What's going on right now is really hard.

I wish Victoria could come to my presentation. I miss her.

That's completely natural when someone passes.

Especially so suddenly.

It's OK to miss her. It's part of the mourning process.

Mom, Dad, Colin, Louise.

But Grandma was mean to her sometimes.

Maybe that's why she quit.

Hey, babe.

It's so good to hear your voice. How are you?

I'm good. I'm good. I just finished my day.

Headed home. How are things on your end?

Grace?

Mm. I'm fine. I'm just...I'm waiting for a detective

to come over because a girl's body was found in the park.

Well actually, I...I found her.

Oh, God! Are you OK?

Yeah. It was awful. And I had just seen her in town.

Wow. Um. Uh...can I do anything? Um...

I'm worried about you, hon.

You know you get panic attacks when you're stressed.

Maybe I'll reschedule my meetings.

Uh, I can leave sooner, I...

No, no. I...I'm gonna be so busy with Andy.

And the Turners are still having this event

tomorrow night. So let's just stick to our plan.

OK. I'll be in town around midnight then. Hey, uh, give...

give me a call after you speak to the detective, OK?

I will. Bye.

Bye, honey.

Grace, did you know Detective Crossman was coming here?

Victoria's death was an accident.

Yeah. I...I mean, I was there when Andy discovered the body

so I'll answer any questions

that will help the investigation.

I can't deal with this right now.

Colin, I saw you last night. What were you...

I'll be in the kitchen if anyone needs me.

Hello, Detective.

Ms. Anderson.

You still have time to talk?

Yes. Absolutely.

Thank you for being so cooperative.

There's something else you should know.

I saw something last night. I was with my friend, Andrea,

and we saw Colin entering Victoria's house. He had a key.

Interesting.

Is he here currently?

Yes.

Hello, Detective. Grace.

Mr. Mayor, I was hoping I could speak with Mr. Marshall.

Would you be so kind as to get him for me?

Regarding Victoria? Her death has been ruled an accident.

Why all the interrogations?

Right now, my focus is on the investigation.

I'm talking to anyone who knew Victoria.

I understand.

Is there any news with the Yasmin Davis case?

Yes. In fact, the department will be issuing a statement

in tomorrow's paper.

Are you able to tell us now

so I know what to expect tomorrow at the office?

It seems Ms. Maynard was receiving

threatening texts leading up to her murder.

So you're saying...

We have reason to suspect that Ms. Maynard

died under suspicious circumstances.

Just like Yasmin Davis.

Grace. All done with the detective?

Yeah. He's with Colin now.

You should go talk to Alex. I think he's in his office.

And you were here working every night this week.

No, I was, uh...I was off on Monday.

Where were you then?

I was with Victoria.

Grace?

Come in.

I just wanted to check in on you.

Alex told me what the detective said.

This is insane. There's a killer on the loose.

It's just easy to be a bit paranoid.

It's such a small town.

The last thing I want is for you to feel uncomfortable.

So, if you don't want to stay...

No, no. I think I just need some rest. It's OK.

I understand.

To think Victoria's death may not have been an accident

is... it's shocking.

I'm actually really worried about how Colin's

gonna take this news.

Louise mentioned that they were close.

I think they may have been involved romantically.

Really?

Well, they never told me anything, but I always

suspected something was going on between them.

And then I just overheard the detective talking with Colin.

And he said that he was with Victoria

the night before she died.

Oh, no. To lose someone you love. That must be unbearable.

This isn't the first time for Colin either. The poor thing.

What do you mean?

Yasmin.

She and Colin used to date.

They weren't together when she...you know.

But they had just gone through a terrible breakup.

And it didn't end particularly well.

So you're saying that both of Colin's ex-girlfriends

have ended up dead?

I'd better go...

Have a good night, Grace.

You too.

Andrea, it's Grace. I have just had a wild night.

I found out some personal details about Colin's life.

Call me back when you can.

Hey, Colin. I just wanna grab some coffee.

Is there any fresh...

What'd you say?

Grace?

I'm just gonna grab a coffee.

No. It's fine.

I'll take care of it.

Hey!

I need help.

That was fast!

Here, I'll set you up.

Looking sharp, little man!

What's that?

It's a DNA testing kit for my family tree project.

Cool stuff!

I assure you, Ms. Maynard. We are doing everything we can.

She did not tell me much about her personal life,

so I don't know if she had a boyfriend. I'm sorry.

Yes, Ms. Maynard. As soon as I hear something I'll call you.

Victoria's mother won't stop calling.

I don't know what she wants me to say.

Well, can you blame her? Her daughter was pregnant.

And they can't identify a DNA match for the baby.

Victoria was living with a huge secret.

Maybe we should call off the event tonight.

The timing doesn't seem right.

And the re-election won't happen for a while.

No. People need your leadership now more than ever.

Have you noticed how upset Colin is?

We're all upset, Emily.

Will the results come on time?

My friend Michael works at the lab.

So I'll ask him to rush the results for us.

All right.

My project's gonna be the best.

Colin, are you gonna come watch my presentation?

You really think I'd miss something that important?

Of course I'll be there.

Let's go back upstairs.

You can hang out with Louise while I get ready.

Detective Crossman.

Hi, Detective. Have you found out who's been texting me?

It's likely it came from a burner phone,

so the number isn't traceable.

However, we were able to track the texts

to a cell tower in North Rivertown.

OK. What does that mean?

Being able to track the cell tower allowed us to trace a

three-mile radius from where the text was sent.

The radius includes the main strip in town

as well as the Turner residence.

So you're saying that the text could have come

from someone inside the house?

It is a possibility.

Women are just not safe in this town right now.

So what I suggest is when you lock up at night,

you have someone escort you.

Oh, Lucy, hi. So good to see you.

So you're saying that the texts could've come

from someone inside the house.

It is a possibility.

Grace! There you are.

Is everything OK?

Yeah.

I just need some air.

What's goin' on?

Nothing. I'm fine. I just need a moment alone.

Oh, shoot. That's the timer for the chicken.

Look, if you're not fussed about getting back

to the crowd, do you mind going to the utility room

and grabbing me a box of wine?

OK, sure.

Uh, just...remember to prop the door open.

It locks from the inside.

Right.

Cool. Thanks.

Uh, I'm still in here!

Hello? Is anybody there? I'm locked inside.

I...I can't get out!

I'm locked inside! Please! Somebody!

Somebody...

Hey.

How you feelin'?

I'm OK. A bit embarrassed.

Panic attacks are nothing to be ashamed of.

The door shut, and I panicked.

It felt like the walls were closing in on me

and I couldn't breathe.

It was like time was standing still

but.I was stuck in there.

Hey, hey! You're safe now.

Glad they called me when they did. I was on my way into town.

I'm gonna cancel my flight, stay here with you...

No, James! That meeting is so important for your career.

You're important to me too. You're my priority.

If I'm gonna go I'd have to leave really soon.

Just...I don't know.

Go to that meeting, James. I promise I'm OK.

OK. You sure?

Yes.

The Turners had any luck getting a new nanny?

No. And Louise has been doing so many interviews.

Louise! Oh, my God, how is she? It's all so vague.

I can barely remember.

But they were putting her onto a stretcher?

Louise fell down the stairs

when you were in the utility room.

She didn't make it.

I'm so sorry.

Oh, no.

What is going on with this family?

Would you consider coming home a little earlier?

Yes, I would.

But I need to make sure that Andy's all right first.

Will you bring me by the Turners?

Thanks for calling. We're absolutely devastated.

Yes. Emily is planning a memorial service next week.

OK. Take care.

This week's been a nightmare.

I can't believe Louise is gone.

Yeah.

Did she, did she say anything when you found her?

Like I said, she was unresponsive.

Yeah. Right. I'm sorry.

Did you, um...

did you hear anything from the hospital about Grace?

No news.

Grace! It's good to see you! Are you...are you doing OK?

Yeah, I'm OK. I heard about Louise.

Yeah. We're all still in shock. She was part of the family.

I'm so sorry, Alex.

And this is bad timing.

But I'd prefer to talk to you about it now.

I promised my husband I'd consider going back

to Philadelphia a little sooner than I thought.

It's OK. I understand.

You've been an incredible help, and we can't thank you enough.

I haven't decided anything yet. I know Andy has lost so much.

Victoria, and now Louise.

Whatever you decide.

We're happy to have you for as long as you can stay.

I know Andy's really taken a liking to you.

Yeah, so, um...just keep me posted and we'll make it work.

I will. Thank you.

OK. I've gotta run. I'll see you later.

Please try to get some rest, OK?

I told Colin to take the rest of the day off

so please do the same.

Emily is with Andy. It's just a...a sad day for all of us.

Thank you, Alex.

OK. Take care.

Grace! Oh, what...what a relief to see you. I'm so sorry.

If I didn't ask you to get the box of wine,

none of this would've happened.

I just came in to get tea. I didn't think you'd be in here.

It's nice to have you back.

Thanks.

I still feel terrible.

I mean, you were shaking like a leaf, struggling to breathe.

I...I thought you were gonna pass out

or maybe something worse.

Yes! The last thing this town needs is another accident.

Isn't that right, Colin?

I'd watch your back if I were you.

Andrea, everything is in a mess.

It was already getting so tense inside the house.

And now with Louise gone?

God, poor Louise.

What a sad way to go.

I just parked. I'll be inside in a sec.

OK.

Grace, wait up!

Colin! What the hell?

You asked me why I was at Victoria's that night.

You still wanna know?

Yes.

We were friends. I cared a lot about her.

But she was hiding something from me.

She kept saying, uh, she was stressed about finding work.

But I know that wasn't it.

Yes. Because she was pregnant. Maybe that was it!

Yeah. Um...maybe that was part of it.

But she was getting texts and hiding her phone.

I have Yasmin's old keychain, and it has Victoria's housekeys

so I went to her house to see if I could find anything.

I know it was stupid.

Did you find something?

Nothing that stood out.

So you two were just friends?

That's not what everyone seems to think, Colin.

Grace, I'm telling you we were friends. That's it.

Everybody at the house got along really well with her.

Emily and Alex, they wanted to see her succeed,

even though they were sad to see her go.

We were all sad. Except Vivian.

I have to go, Colin.

Hey, can I get you a tea or something?

I think Colin just followed me here.

He just cornered me outside.

What did he say?

That him and Victoria were just friends.

Oh. Wow.

I know what happened last night is blurry.

But I could've sworn I propped that door open

when I went into the utility room.

What if somebody locked me in there on purpose?

You think it could've been another warning

for you to leave town?

Exactly.

And who do you think sent me here in the first place?

Grace!

Thanks for listening tonight.

It's really too bad you're thinking of leaving.

I like having you around.

Grace! Open up! Let me in!

I'm coming.

Oh, Grace. Thank God I got you on time.

You need to leave.

Vivian, slow down. What's going on?

You're in danger. You need to leave right now.

Wait, why? What are you talking about.

I heard Colin talking on the phone.

He admitted to locking you in the utility room.

He's dangerous.

OK, we need to call the sheriff's office.

Let's go to the station. I'll drive you.

I'll meet you in the foyer.

Wait!

Vivian!

Vivian?

Grace.

What are you doing awake?

I was just, um...

...couldn't sleep. I was just going to get some tea.

I'll do it for you.

Just ordered this new herbal one you'll like.

No, that's OK. I'd prefer to go alone.

You're not going anywhere, Grace.

Grace!

You should've taken my warnings seriously

and gone back to Philadelphia, like I told you.

I'll go back. I won't tell anyone anything, I swear!

It's too late now.

Emily!

Alex!

Stop yelling!

It's just you and I now.

No one's home.

No. No, no, no, no, no!

Grace!

Grace! Wake up!

You have nightmares too, huh?

Yeah.

Yeah, that one felt really real.

What's going on? Why are you awake?

I was having trouble sleeping.

I was gonna get a glass of water

when I heard you making weird noises in your sleep.

Well, how do you feel about a bedtime snack?

Colin makes homemade cereal for me sometimes. It's the best.

He's been a bit different ever since Victoria died.

He's doing his best, but...

it's hard when you lose someone you care about.

They never seemed like very good friends.

But they did text a lot.

How do you know that?

Colin never told me about it.

But I go onto his laptop sometimes to play games,

and I'd see the notifications pop up.

I never read them though. I'm not that nosy.

Has Colin given you permission to use his laptop?

Duh!

He made his password my birthday so I could remember.

But nobody knows I get up really early sometimes

to play in his room when he's not home.

I almost got caught last week, though.

It was a close call.

But she never saw me in Colin's room.

Eat your cereal.

Vivian.

Grace. You scared me.

What are you doing in here?

Well, I'm tired of everyone pretending

that Colin isn't dangerous.

He's hiding something. And I'm gonna find out what.

You're a smart girl, Grace.

I'm sure you've had the same questions about Colin

that I've had.

I just wanted to check on something.

Andy's birthday is December 7th, right?

Yes.

Oh, my God!

What did you find?

Colin was in love with Victoria. He lied to me.

Victoria warned him to back off and accuses him

of having sent threatening texts with a blocked number.

Clearly, Victoria was afraid of him. And now she's dead.

And so is Yasmin. It can't be a coincidence

that both of these women were killed.

The detective said that maybe Victoria's death

wasn't an accident.

Are Emily or Alex home?

Grace. How are you doing? Alex mentioned that you might be

leaving a little earlier than planned,

but we've all gotten so used to having you around.

I need to talk to you about Colin.

What about me?

You were in love with Victoria.

You lied to me.

Grace, I don't know what you're talking about.

I found text messages between Colin and Victoria.

He's confessing his love to her

and she's begging him to stay away from her.

She said she's with someone else.

And she knows that he's sending her threatening texts

from a blocked number.

How did you see these texts?

They're on his laptop.

Why were you going through my stuff?

Colin. Is that true?

I'd never hurt Victoria. I loved her.

I was worried about her.

Grace, why were you going through Colin's belongings?

I don't know. I had a hunch, and I followed it, OK?

Vivian was there too.

You two had no business being in my room.

And it's a good thing I did.

I found this hidden in your room.

Oh, my God!

A gun! You have a gun in my house!

That is not mine. I've never seen it before in my life!

It was in a box under your bed.

Yasmin. Yasmin was shot. That's how she died, right?

This...this is insane. That's not mine.

I wasn't even town the night she got killed.

Stop.

You're not going anywhere, Colin.

Vivian, are you mad? Put the gun away!

Detective Crossman will be here soon. Just put it down.

He'll know what to do.

Keep it from here.

We're taking Colin in for questioning.

You're not gonna arrest him?

There isn't enough evidence to detain him at this time.

The gun does match the type used against Yasmin Davis.

But we're gonna have to run some tests before we know

for sure if it's the exact one or not.

And are you charging him with the murder of Victoria too?

Well, let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Both deaths are ongoing investigations.

We're preparing a warrant to search Mr. Marshall's room.

But I'll keep you posted.

Detective, I think he really could've been the one

to lock me in the utility room that night. He's dangerous.

Three women have died. And they were all close to Colin.

Now we find out he's hiding a gun.

What else is he hiding?

I assure you; we are all over this.

I'll get in touch once we secure the warrant.

Of course.

Thank you, Detective.

I have to call Alex right away.

Yeah.

What is it?

Andy's DNA results are in. He'll be excited.

I have to go pick him up. I'll be back soon, OK?

Hey.

I just overheard someone say they saw Colin

at the sheriff's office. Is it true?

Vivian found a gun in his room.

Quit the Turners last night.

He's staying at a friend's house.

I almost forgot. Andy's DNA results came in.

Mm.

What is it?

Andy's results. It says there's zero percent Italian lineage.

That doesn't make any sense. Alex's whole family is Italian.

It's like a point of pride for him.

Yeah, I know.

I heard Mom and Dad saying you may have to go home earlier.

I told them that I'm thinking about it.

If you do end up staying, there's this cool rock exhibit

opening at the museum in a few weeks. Wanna go together?

Yeah. Of course.

Louise said she'd take me, but...

Hey. I'll take you.

And if I'm not working as your nanny,

I'll just drive down for the day.

I can bring James too. You'll like him. He's a cool guy.

Mom! Look at my family tree!

Oh! It's absolutely wonderful.

You're so creative.

I think it's time for your bedtime, though.

Huh, honey? Yeah?

OK!

Night, sweetie!

Goodnight!

Goodnight, Andy! See you tomorrow.

30 percent Italian?

Oh, yeah. We ordered a mail-in DNA test.

Oh, wow.

You didn't need parental approval

for that kind of thing?

Of course. I had Alex sign some paperwork for me.

Mm.

This is really so beautiful.

I love seeing how we all connect.

And these mail-in tests, they're 100 percent accurate?

Oh, absolutely.

Family is the most important thing in the world to me.

Andy and Alex are my everything.

Emily, I...

It's so sweet to see how proud Andy is

of his Italian heritage.

It just ...it warms my heart.

I'm gonna go up to bed too.

Grace, wait.

I just wanted to say, um...

...this whole thing with Colin.

I'm so sorry to have put you in danger with him in the house.

I would never have expected him to own a gun

or to send those threatening texts.

But it was my job to create a safe space for you here.

And I failed.

Oh, it's OK. It's not your fault.

You're sweet.

We're all gonna be so sad to lose you.

And James? Is um...is he still in town?

No. Not anymore.

Goodnight, Emily.

Goodnight.

I figured you could use another coffee.

Thank you.

Any news on what happened to Victoria?

Well, the sheriff isn't saying much. It's...it's a nightmare.

And all eyes are on Colin.

Just how could he have done something like this?

I thought I knew him. I guess we were wrong.

The town is angry.

But it'll all blow over once Colin is arrested.

It's early.

He must have some news.

Hello, Detective.

Please tell me you have some good news.

Good and bad.

We've confirmed that the gun found in Colin's room

was in fact the same gun used to murder Yasmin Davis.

Oh, my God!

Wow.

And I wanted to let you know that Colin is no longer

considered a suspect in the Yasmin Davis case.

His alibi on the night of the murder is airtight.

But Vivian found the gun in his room,

so he must be involved somehow, right?

The only prints found on the gun are Vivian's.

It's been a very long day, and the jetlag is killing me.

But the meeting went very well.

Hm. That makes me happy to hear.

Oh, just a second.

Are these yours?

They smell terrible! Humidity and lake water.

They must be Victoria's.

She oftentimes changed in the shed after kayaking.

She had this horrible habit of leaving wet clothes

in a pile on the floor.

Sorry about that.

It's all right.

How are you holding up? I'm worried about you.

I'm all right.

I'm going to Andrea's after dinner tonight.

That's nice. I'm glad she's there for you.

Yeah. I've been thinking. It's been calmer at the house lately.

I haven't received any other texts

since the incident in the utility room.

I think I'll come back home

just after Louise's memorial next week.

All right. Well, I'll head to Rivertown then.

And we can make the road trip back together.

What do you think?

I would love that.

Me too.

OK. I'll let you get back to your writing.

OK. Bye.

Nothing from Michael?

No. It's so weird. He usually texts me back right away.

Do you think he could've just made a mistake

with the results?

Who knows?

He's probably just busy.

I'm just anxious to hear back. I hate that I lied to Andy.

Yeah.

I should get back. It's getting late.

Well, thanks so much for coming by. It was good to see you.

I needed a night out of the house.

Night!

Leave Rivertown and never come back.

I'm not going to warn you again.

No! Who are you?

No! Get away!

Andy.

Andy. Wake up.

Oh, it's OK.

You OK? Do you wanna talk about it?

I keep having the same nightmare over and over

about someone hiding in the shed outside.

I saw someone in there before.

So it feels real. But in my dream, they have no face.

You know what helps nightmares? Hot chocolate!

Oh, yeah.

With marshmallows?

OK, Mr. Andy!

One hot chocolate with marshmallows coming right up!

Hi, Vivian.

Oh. I didn't think anyone else was up.

Yeah, Andy just had a nightmare and he's a bit shaken up.

So I thought I'd make him a hot chocolate.

Poor thing. Can't escape his nightmares.

But I don't think hot chocolate is the best cure.

Why are you up?

Oh. It seems I can never get some sleep.

I just came down to get a cup of tea.

Is it true you'll be leaving town sooner than expected?

Yes.

Two young girls receiving threatening texts are now dead.

I wouldn't stay either.

I'll miss you.

What did the sheriff say about the note on your car?

I dropped it off to him this morning.

I'm waiting to hear back from Detective Crossman.

Are you sure you're doing all right?

No. No, I'm not all right!

I can't shake this feeling that somebody is watching me.

Yasmin and Victoria were both receiving sketchy texts

and they...they died.

I can't stay here any longer.

I decided I'm going home tomorrow.

I think that's the right decision.

Now what am I gonna tell Andy? Hm?

I don't wanna do this to him.

But with everything that's going on.

He'll be OK. You can come visit.

What are you up to the rest of the day?

I will start packing.

I've got the night off because Andy's going

to a sleepover after school. So...

I have to take this!

Hey! Michael. Thanks for getting back to me.

Are you at work?

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Slow down. What are you talking about?

I'm listening.

No! That can't be right, Michael! No!

Grace?

I asked Michael to run a check on Andy's relatives.

OK.

Alex isn't Andy's biological father.

His real father is... James!

James!

Andy!

But how would James and Emily even know each other?

I don't know. I need to...I need to call him right now.

Yeah, of course.

Hey you!

James, we have to talk.

Grace? Did something else happen?

Is everything all right?

I just got a call from Michael.

Yeah?

Andy's DNA results came back.

And I thought that something was wrong,

so I had him double-check.

You were in the system. And you came back as a match.

Wait, what? That's gotta be a mistake. What do you mean?

You tell me. You had an affair with Emily Turner?

Um...

Emily Turner. Uh...

Uh, yes!

Do you remember I told you about that client

that I was intimate with?

And you felt guilty because she was married?

Grace, I'm...I'm so sorry.

This...this was, like, ten years ago.

Before you and I were ever together.

If I had connected the dots, I would've said something sooner.

I know...I know.

But I need some time to process all of this.

Yeah. I understand.

I'll call you later.

OK.

It's true.

Grace!

I'm so sorry.

I don't even know what to say. I just...I can't believe it.

I know.

James has a son.

Why don't we just sit down and talk that through,

because that's a lot to process.

Wait!

Wait.

So ten years ago, like, right before Emily got pregnant

with Andy, she had an affair with James?

So she obviously knows that Andy might not be Alex's son

and that James could be.

Does Emily know James is your husband?

Well, I've said his name in front of her multiple times.

And there are photos of us on the internet so she must know.

Emily certainly doesn't want Alex to find out

about her affair.

That's what I'm thinking.

Me being back here in Rivertown, it scared her.

And now, I'm a threat to exposing her secret.

Are you thinking that Emily sent you those texts

to leave town so that Alex doesn't learn about her affair?

Because that would be insane.

Well, it's possible!

I keep trying to connect what happened to Yasmin and Victoria

to these sketchy texts.

But what if I'm looking in the wrong direction?

Emily wanting you far from Rivertown

makes sense to me now.

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna confront her.

Emily, can I talk to you a minute?

Of course. Let's sit down.

Is anyone else home?

No. Vivian's at the office with Alex.

OK. Good. Because I need to talk to you about something.

It's about Andy.

I came across something while we were working

on his family tree project.

Yes?

I know what happened between you and James.

I have no idea what you're referring to.

Emily, please. I know you had an affair ten years ago.

Right before you got pregnant with Andy.

It was a very, very long time ago.

So let's just leave it in the past where it belongs.

And I would. But as you must've feared...

Alex isn't Andy's biological father.

His real father is James.

No! No. No, no. That can't be possible!

I saw Andy's project.

You told him that he's 30 percent Italian.

I lied. I'm sorry.

I didn't know how to handle the situation.

No, this can't be happening. Alex is his father!

His DNA matches James.

I had my friend check at a lab this afternoon.

DNA doesn't lie.

It was just one night.

I mean, of course I knew there was a chance

that Alex might not be his father but...

Alex will be crushed. I can't tell him.

He can never know. No one can know.

It's too late.

I already told James.

You can't keep this secret, Emily.

I—I don't know what to do.

I can't tell him that Andy isn't his son.

This is gonna completely destroy our lives.

Emily! I know it's difficult.

You should never have come back to Rivertown!

That sounds familiar.

I know you've been sending me texts

pressuring me to leave Rivertown.

You have no idea what you've done.

What?

I won't let you destroy my family.

Not after all I've done to protect it.

Why would I destroy your family? I love Andy.

I'm gonna give you some time to work this out.

No, you should've left when I warned you.

Now you're not going anywhere!

That's the jacket Vivian found.

They smell terrible. Humidity and lake water.

It all makes sense now.

Victoria was kayaking. You must've been wet,

So you went to the shed to change.

Vivian said the jacket and the shoes smelled like lake water.

And Andy.

He was scared to get his ball from the shed

the morning we found Victoria.

And he said he saw you entering your bedroom.

Like, surprisingly early that same morning.

It's you.

It's you that Andy saw in the shed that morning.

That's why he's been having this reoccurring nightmare

ever since. And Victoria didn't fall, did she?

You think you're so clever.

But you don't know the first thing about me.

You don't know what I've had to do.

You don't know what I've had to do to protect my family!

Don't you dare call anyone! Put the phone down!

OK.

OK.

This whole time I was suspecting Colin...

You did this.

I had no choice. They were gonna ruin my family.

How could you?

I'm not the bad person here.

It was Alex. He was the one sleeping around.

With who?

Yasmin found out about his affair with Victoria

and threatened to expose him. So, I had to get rid of her.

And then I thought that Victoria would disappear

once she quit. But Alex was keeping her around.

His little affair was gonna destroy our reputations

and tear our family apart.

They both got what they deserved.

And you knew Colin was connected to both of them,

so you tried to frame him by putting the gun in his room.

I thought that once Yasmin was out of the picture

that we could be a family again.

But with Victoria still lingering,

the nightmare just...it wouldn't end!

What am I supposed to do?

How could I explain a pregnancy when everybody knows,

I don't have a boyfriend?

You're gonna have to quit your job here.

What? Alex, I need the money!

Just...listen. Give your notice to Emily tomorrow.

OK, you know the property on Main Street?

You always wanted to open up a bookshop. Now's your chance.

You can start your own business, and I'll help you

every step of the way.

You think you can buy me? Just like that?

It's your dream, is it not? And I'll cover everything.

And if anyone asks, you met a guy from out of town. OK?

No! Come on, Alex. I'm not doing that.

Look, I have no problem quitting my job right away,

but I will not lie to my child.

OK.

You don't have to hurt anyone else, Emily.

Everything was fine until you came into town.

I had it all under control.

What have I ever done to you?

You brought James here!

The second I realized you were married to him,

I knew I needed to act quickly.

If Alex ever found out about my affair,

he'd leave me with nothing.

And now to find out that James is Andy's father?

It's over for me.

And you're to blame!

So, not only have you been sending me threatening texts,

but you locked me in the utility closet?

For what? Just to scare me? And Louise? You killed Louise!

I regret having to do that.

But she saw too much. I couldn't risk it.

I'm still in here!

Hello?

Hello?

Is anyone there?

Hello? I...Is anybody there?

She knew something was off. And then she heard you screaming.

And I can tell by the look on her face that she knew

I locked you in, so I had no choice.

I want you out of my life. For good.

My secrets...

...end with you!

Oh, my God!

Emily. Let me up. No! Emily, stop. Emily!

Emily, no! Emily! Don't! Emily, don't! Please stop!

Emily, no! Emily!

Emily! What are you doing?

Don't you dare look at me like I'm the crazy one!

I've been busy cleaning up your mess!

Emily!

Please. Think about what you're doing.

This is not gonna end well for you. Please.

Andy needs his mother.

Just drop the knife.

Please.

This wasn't how it was supposed to go.

This was never meant to happen!

911. What is your emergency?

Please send a car to 1413 Blackhorse Court.

No!

Let's see it!

It feels so good being back in Rivertown

without all the stress of Emily's trial.

Yeah. Yeah, the last year has been a real rollercoaster.

Look who it is!

Andy!

It's so good to see you!

Hey, bud.

Hey!

Hey. Thanks for inviting us to the play today.

It was all Andy's idea.

I'm glad you made the drive down.

Of course.

How're you two doing?

We're really great.

We're really great.

Grace, are you...?

Yes! I'm pregnant.

Yeah! I'm gonna be a big brother!

Andy. This is for you.

You wrote it? Is it the treehouse from our story?

Yes, it is.

You were my inspiration for it,

so I wanted you to see it first.

Thanks! I can't wait to read it to my little brother.

Well, it could also be a little sister.

It could be both!

Hey. We still have time before the play.

I'm gonna hold the book while you play in the park. Yeah?

All right.

Wait up, Andy!
