Man: Come back!

You're making a mistake!

Girl: [Grunts]

[Chime]

Skyler: Dad's in the car.

Hope: [Sighs]

Okay, I'm coming.

Skyler: Why do you
guys take so long?

Hope: You're the one we're
usually waiting on, Skyler.

Skyler: Okay, but this
time it's important.

Valerie: Church is
always important, Mija.

Skyler: Then why
are we always late?

Valerie: We're
not gonna be late.

Hope!

What is this?

We're going to church,
not a nightclub.

Hijole.

And stop texting all the time.

You're gonna grow
horns on your neck.

Hope: I'm not gonna
grow horns on my neck.

It's true.

I read an article about it.

Having your neck like this all
the time makes you grow horns.

Hope: Mom.

Skyler: Mom says Hope's
gonna grow a horn.

Garrett: I'm sure
she is, sweetie.

You know we had to
be on time today.

Valerie: We're here.

We're going.

Garrett: It's Skylar's big day.

We're gonna be late.

Valerie: You're the
one still talking.

Hope: Can I drive?

Garrett: We gotta go, honey.

Hope: No, but I know
where we're going.

I know where all
the stoplights are.

Garrett: Well, maybe if
you came down when I asked.

Come on, let's go.

Choir: ♪ I've got the joy, joy,
joy, joy down in my heart ♪

♪ Where? ♪

♪ Down in my heart to stay ♪

♪ And I'm so happy,
so very happy ♪

♪ I've got the love of Jesus in
my heart, down in my heart ♪

Nan: Sorry, I'm late.

Valerie: It's okay,
they're just starting.

Garrett: Shh.

Choir: ♪ I've got the love
of Jesus in my heart ♪

Priest: For if you forgive other
people when they sin against you,

your Heavenly Father
will also forgive you.

But if you do not forgive
others their sins,

your Father will not
forgive your sins.

Now, we know that God's free gift
of forgiveness is provided...

Valerie: Hope.

Priest: ...Christ's
death on the cross.

And yet here we're
told that we have

the responsibility
to forgive others...

Garrett: What?

Priest: ...as well.

Now, sometimes that can
be rather hard to...

Garrett: Can we not do
this in church, please?

Hope: I'm still listening.

Garrett: It's disrespectful.

Come on.

Hope: At least I'm not sleeping.

Priest: ...when they
harm the family.

Garrett: [Sighs]

Priest: It's hard to
forgive in times like these.

Garrett: Mom.

Priest: We find later
in the New Testament...

Garrett: Mom!

Priest: ...where the
apostle Paul says this.

Nan: What?

Priest: Let all bitterness and
wrath and anger and clamor...

Garrett: Off.

Now.

Priest: ...along
with all malice.

Be kind to one another,
tenderhearted,

forgiving one another, as
God in Christ forgave you.

Nan: Oh.

Bye, gals.

Hope: Time to go.

Nan: What are you doing?

Hope: Remember, we're telling
them I'm staying at a friend's.

Nan: Right.

Valerie: Okay.

What is this?

Out with it.

Hope: Go ahead, Nan.

Nan: Well, I'm supposed to
ask if it would be all right

for Hope to stay the
night with me tonight.

Valerie: Really?

And this is something
that you want?

Nan: Yes.

Oh, yeah.

It was my idea.

Hope: Mm-hmm.

Nan: At least that's
what I'm supposed to say.

Hope: Nana!

But for real, can I go?

I asked her about it, and
she said it would be fine.

Valerie: Hope, it's a
school day tomorrow.

Hope: She said
she'd drop me off.

Nan: Yeah.

Hope: Please.

You said you wanted me to get
to know my abuelita better.

Garrett: Don't be
late for school.

And if your nana
doesn't wake up on time,

doesn't mean you
can just skip it.

Hope: I'll be there.

I promise.

Nan: Well, we're parked
up this way, I think.

Hope: All right.

We're gonna go.

Bye.

Garrett: Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Don't forget to share
your location with me.

Hope: I'm gonna be at Nan's.

Garrett: We have a rule.

You wanna go or not?

Thank you, Hope.

Hope: Bye, Dad.

[Music]

[Chime]

Nan: This is so nice.

I love getting to spend
some time with you.

Hope: Me too, Nana.

Nan: Oh, um...

Just make a noise or something
if I fall asleep, okay?

[Laughter]

Hope: Will do.

[Music on TV]

[Man talking on TV]

Hope: Nan?

[Chime]

[Door opens]

Hope: Trevor?

Trevor: Oh, jeez.

I'm sorry.

I was on my phone.

I didn't see you walk up.

[Chuckles]

Kind of scared me, honestly.

Hope: Oh.

Sorry about that.

Trevor: No worries.

Wow.

You look great.

Hope: Thanks.

You look good, too.

Trevor: Here, I
can get the door.

Does it feel weird?

Talking in real life?

Hope: Yeah.

I'm not gonna lie, it
does feel a little weird.

Trevor: We've just been
texting for so long,

I feel like I already
know you so well.

Hope: Yeah.

Well, real life's
a lot more fun.

Trevor: Amen to that.

[Laughs]

Hope: So, what's the
plan for tonight?

How do you feel about surprises?

Hope: I've got to be
home in a couple hours.

I'm down for anything that, you
know, doesn't take all night.

Trevor: I'll keep that in mind.

So, tell me the truth.

What do your parents think?

Hope: Honestly?

Trevor: You haven't told them?

Hope: Mm-mm.

Trevor: Wow, Hope.

You really set me
up to be a bad boy.

Hope: No, I just...

I don't want them asking a
bunch of questions and stuff.

Trevor: Don't they see
you texting me, though?

Hope: You're on
my phone as Haley.

Trevor: Wow.

Haley, huh?

Hope: Yeah.

Trevor: I wish I'd changed
your name on my phone

to Bill or something.

[Laughs]

Hope: Haley and Bill.

It's kind of cute, honestly.

Trevor: Let's get
our names changed.

Hope: Yeah, for real.

[Laughs]

[Ball hitting pins]

Trevor: Woo!

One point for Bill.

Hope: I'm so bad at this.

Trevor: Maybe this will make
you feel a little bit better.

Hope: Oh, wow.

Trevor: I'm sorry I don't
have one of those cool boxes.

Hope: No, it's OK.

It's really nice.

Trevor: Yeah.

I know it's only our first date,

but since we're already doing all
the other first date cliches...

Hope: Esperanza.

It's lovely.

Trevor: It's Hope in Spanish.

Hope: I know.

I speak Spanish.

Trevor: Right, right, right.

Well, vamonos, let's try it on.

Hope: Ok.

Trevor: It's kind of hard
to get the clasp open.

Hope: Do you want me to do it?

Trevor: No, I got it.

I just don't see why they
don't make these things

for human hands.

Matt: Ma'am, is this
creep hitting on you?

Trevor: Oh.

Matt: Good to see you, Trevor.

Trevor: Matt, what
are you doing here?

Matt: I'm just hanging out with
Iris and a couple of the guys.

Y'all should come join us.

Trevor: Oh, we're
actually on a date.

Matt: Oh, shoot.

My bad.

Sorry, ma'am.

Hope: No, it's OK.

You two catch up.

I'm going to go to the bathroom

and see if I can
get this thing on.

Trevor: All right.

Don't run off now.

Hope: [Laughs] I won't.

Fabian: Oh, pardon
me, I'm so sorry.

Hope: No worries.

Fabian: Here you go.

It's a pretty necklace.

What's it mean?

Hope: Hope, in Spanish.

It's my name.

Fabian: Good to meet you, Hope.

Happy bowling.

Hope: Thanks.

Iris: That's a pretty necklace.

Hope: Thanks.

Iris: Did Trevor
give that to you?

Hope: Uh, yeah.

How do you know Trevor?

Iris: We go to the
same high school.

Hope: Oh.

Iris: How'd you all meet?

Hope: We met online.

We had our mutual
friend, and he...

Iris: DM'd you?

Hope: Yeah.

But we've been texting
for a couple months, so...

Iris: Well, consider
yourself lucky.

A lot of girls at our school are
really trying to lock that down.

Don't move too slow.

Hope: Okay.

Trevor: All right, man,
I'll see you later.

Matt: See you, dude.

It was good to meet you, Haley.

Trevor: It's Hope, dude.

Matt: My bad.

Trevor: Here.

I got us a couple sodas.

Let's go for round two.

I think you really got
a chance this time.

That was actually really good.

Hope: I know.

Trevor: I'm impressed
at this point.

You alright?

Hope: Yeah.

I think I just got used to
walking in bowling shoes.

[Laughs]

[Engine starts]

Trevor: So, what next?

Should we keep this party going?

Hope: I should probably
be getting home.

Trevor: Oh, come on.

I'm sure your grandma's
still passed out.

We could go get ice cream.

Hope: I kind of
feel a little sick.

Trevor: You need some water?

Hope: Yeah.

Trevor: Oh, shoot.

I thought I had some.

Uh...

Hey, I'm gonna pull
over real quick, ok?

Here, I'm gonna
run in real quick.

I'll be right back.

Hope: Why'd you
park so far away?

Trevor: I gotta get my steps in.

I'll see you in a sec.

[Music]

Hope: [Gasps]

No!

[Screaming]

Man: Hey!

Hey!

[Phone ringing]

Garrett: Mom?

What do you mean?

[Muffled speaking]

[Buzzing]

[Breathing heavy]

[Grunting]

[Music]

Skyler: Hope, come on.

Let's go.

[Laughter]

Hope: Where am I?

Man: [Clears his throat]

Hey.

How are you?

You know what? I
found a picture.

I think you'll like this one.

Hope: [Gasps]

Man: Look.

It's your family.

There's your mom.

There's your dad.

And your sister, Skyler.

You know how I got this picture?

I took it myself.

I know where they live.

So, if you do something
we don't like...

I'm going to hurt them.

Her first, then her, then
him last, so he can watch.

But we don't want to do that,
and we won't have to do that...

if you just do your job.

OK?

Do you understand?

Good.

Good.

OK.

You go get changed, and
I'm going to wait outside.

Hey.

I really don't want
to hurt your family...

or you.

So, just be good.

Please?

Thank you.

[Music]

Woman: Here, take one of these.

I'm trying to help,
you little brat.

[Gasping]

[Crying]

Man: Hey.

Look at me.

Your name is Blaze.

Now say it.

Hope: My name is Blaze.

Man: Say it again.

Hope: My name is Blaze.

Man: Very good.

Good.

Now you're going
to go with Queenie,

and you're going to do
whatever she tells you to do.

You understand?

Good.

[Knocking]

Man: Hello.

Come on in.

[Music]

Man: I know you're feeling
a lot of things right now,

but it does get
better and easier.

You just keep following
my directions,

and I will give you
whatever you need,

whenever you need it, okay?

All right, come on,
keep looking at me.

Come on, right here.

All right.

All right, here we go.

It's all better now.

You're gonna be fine.

You're doing great.

Detective: And she
was there on the couch

when you fell asleep, ma'am?

Nan: Yes.

Yes, right there.

Detective: Okay.

Ma'am, to clarify, that
was the last interaction

you had with Hope
before she disappeared.

Okay.

Now, we didn't find any
signs of forced entry.

So, is there any reason that
you could think of as to

maybe why Hope would have
left her phone on purpose?

Garrett: She knows I
look at her location.

Detective: Now, is there
any reason that Hope

would have wanted to hide
her location from you?

Garrett: I don't know.

Valerie: You think
Hope left on purpose?

Detective: I'll get to that.

Now, do you know a friend
of Hope's named Haley?

Valerie: Haley?

No, we don't know Haley.

Detective: Okay.

Well, we made an attempt
to speak with Haley

using the phone number
in Hope's contact,

but the number was
recently disconnected.

Garrett: Disconnected
by this Haley?

Detective: That's correct.

Which means that more than
likely, whoever this Haley is,

they don't want to be found.

Valerie: And you think
Hope went with her?

Detective: It's hard
to say for certain.

But disconnecting
your phone number

the day after a disappearance
is suspicious behavior

to say the least.

Now, I want to be very clear
about what we're dealing with here.

It's entirely possible that hope
is just a runaway teenager.

I mean, it happens, even if you
wouldn't expect it from her.

But the fact that
somebody else is involved

and has since gone
off the radar,

it means that we can't rule out
the possibility of an abduction.

[Music]

Garrett: So what do we do?

Detective: Me and my
team will continue

to conduct an extensive search,

and we will keep you updated
throughout the process.

You know, if you
have any questions

or if you think of anything
at all that might help,

please do not hesitate
to call me, ok?

Garrett: Ok.

Detective: Hey, I
know this is hard,

but I promise we are going
to do everything in our power

to find your daughter.

Nan: Thank you, Detective.

[Music]

Man: Hey.

I thought you were
a little hungry.

So, uh, would you
like anything else?

Hope: Can I call my parents?

Just to tell them that
I'm alive, that's it.

I promise.

Man: We talked
about this before.

This is your new home.

Your old life is dead.

And complaining about it
really just makes us upset.

And no, you can't call
your parents, okay?

We are your parents now.

We tell you what
to do, you do it.

And if you don't,
you'll pay for it.

Ok?

Maybe you'll eat later.

Get your dress out of the
suitcase and meet me upstairs.

[Tray crashes]

Don't make me wait.

[Music]

Garrett: Sir.

Sir?

If you could.

Have you seen my daughter?

Sir. Please.

Please.

If you see this girl,

please call the
number right there.

If you see this girl, please
call the number right there.

Call the number right there
if you happen to see her.

Thank you.

Sir.

Fabian: Are you
that girl's mother?

Valerie: Yes.

Have you seen her?

Fabian: OK, Sunday night, right?

Detective: It would have
been sometime after nine.

Fabian: OK, I'm going
to scrub through here.

This is 9:15.

If you see anything,
let me know.

Detective: Wait, wait.

Back up.

There.

Fabian: Oh yeah, there she is.

Detective: This guy.

Let's see if you can find
a better view of his face.

Stop.

Huh.

Does he look like
a Haley to you?

Do you recognize
either of these boys?

Garrett: No.

Valerie: Who are they?

Detective: Well, we're not sure.

From the security footage,

we can see Hope and this guy
walk into the bowling alley

about 20 minutes after
the last text from Haley.

And about 20 minutes after
that, this guy shows up.

Now, the last footage we have
of them is at 9:53 PM, right?

Hope and this guy here
walk back to a car.

Hope stumbles on the way.

Now, based on the
way she was walking

compared to when she came in,

we believe she may
have been intoxicated.

Valerie: How?

Do they not card at
the bowling alley?

Detective: It's possible that
her date bought her a drink.

Garrett: No.

She knows better than that.

Hope wouldn't get
drunk with a stranger.

Detective: Regardless, this
is the last known footage

we have of your daughter,

which means that at least
up until this moment,

she left on purpose.

Now, the reason she
didn't come home

has something to
do with this man.

Garrett: So, can you
use that to ID him,

take him in for questioning?

Detective: I wish
it were that simple.

The plates on the
car he was driving

came up for a stolen vehicle
reported a few months ago.

We don't know his name, and
the footage isn't clear enough

for our facial
recognition software

to find any direct matches.

We're gonna keep searching.

I just...

I want you to be prepared
for this investigation

to take some time.

Garrett: We don't have time.

Our daughter is gone.

The longer you take, the
more she could be anywhere.

Detective: I agree.

Garrett: Then find them.

Do your job.

Detective: We're doing
everything we can

to find your daughter.

We are.

I wish I could say more.

Valerie: Garrett?

Detective: This is a good lead.

All right, we are closer
than we were yesterday,

and we are going
to keep searching.

I'm not giving up.

Valerie: Detective.

Detective: [Sighs]

Man: Go get the car.

Hey.

Gotta get going, come on.

You like the room?

Well, you can have that room,

but you gotta earn it.

Come on.

[Music]

[Knocking]

Man: It'll work for now.

[Knocking]

[Claps]

Attagirl.

I hope you like strawberry.

It was a big night.

I tell you, you deserved it.

Queen: What do you say?

Hope: Thank you.

[Engine starts]

[Chimes]

[Vomits]

[Coughs]

Man: Oh, come on.

It's my car.

Queen: Get out, you stupid pig.

[Grunts]

Man: This stuff is
all over the place.

Queen: You're gonna
clean this up.

Man: Hey, you're
gonna clean it up.

Go to the back, get some
wipes, and clean that up.

Queen: I'm not cleaning this up.

Man: Hey, what did I just say?

Huh?

Queen: I'm gonna kill you
for this, you little slut.

[Music]

[Twig breaks]

[Panting]

Man: Hey, where is she?

Queen: What?

Man: Blaze...

Where is she?

Blaze!

Queen: Blaze!

Man: You're making a mistake!

Queen: Get back here, now!

[Branch breaks]

Valerie: [Grunts]

[Panting]

[Crying]

[Panting]

[Grunts]

No!

No!

Someone help me!

Man: Shut up.

Hope: Get off of me!

No!

No!

No!

Man: You want me to
hurt your family?

That what you want?

Hope: No.

No, please.

Man: How about I hurt your
sister the way I hurt you?

Hope: No, please, I promise.

Man: I didn't hear you.

Hope: No, no, please, I promise.

Man: Promise what?

Hope: I promise I...

Man: Promise me what?

Hope: I'm sorry.

I won't ever do it again!

Man: I didn't hear you!

Hope: I promise I
won't ever do it again.

[Crying]

Please.

[Music]

[Crying]

Pastor: It's hard to believe
that it's been a year

since Hope disappeared.

How do you hold on to faith
in the midst of such pain?

Where do you find the
strength to continue on,

knowing that all is
not as it should be?

It's in times like these
that we must fight despair

and hold on to the truth,

the truth that there
is nowhere you can go,

there is nowhere too far,

that God's love cannot
still reach you.

That's why we're here tonight.

We believe that Hope
can still be found,

and we will not stop praying
until that day happens.

So, will you please
stand with me tonight,

and let's go to
the Lord in prayer.

Heavenly Father, we lift
up hope to you tonight.

And God, wherever she is,

we know that, God, you
can still save her.

And we pray, God, that you will.

And we pray, God, that you
will bring her back home.

Man: Blaze?

Jewel.

Jewel, Blaze.

Jewel: Hey.

Hope: Hey.

Man: Jewel's going to be
staying with us for a while.

Hope: Oh.

Did you want me to
leave that open?

No, she's not
staying down there.

Her room is across from yours.

So, please make
her feel welcome.

[Inaudible speaking]

Girl: Oh my goodness.

Woman: Hey there.

Looks like someone's
excited to meet you.

Girl: Can I pet her?

Woman: Of course.

Girl: What's her name?

Woman: Take a guess.

Girl: Um, Samantha.

Woman: You're right!

Wow.

How'd you guess that?

Girl: She just looks
like a Samantha.

Woman: You must be
really good with animals.

Do you want to meet Samantha's
brothers and sisters?

Girl: You have more puppies?

Woman: I've got a
whole litter full.

My friend is over
with them right now.

You want to go see them?

Girl: Okay.

Woman: Go ahead.

[Music]

[Puppies barking and squealing]

Trevor: Hey.

Girl: Where are the puppies?

[Screaming]

[Screaming]

Man: Take her downstairs.

Girl: I can't see.

Man: Hey, shut up.

I said shut up.

Girl: Please, I wanna go home.

[Screaming]

Man: Did you not
hear what I said?

Girl: No!

Man: Quiet.

Girl: [Screams]

[Typing]

[Ringing]

Detective: Detective
Romero speaking.

Detective: So, Mr. Haynes,

I understand you turned
yourself in to Officer Lewis.

Man: Did he tell you why?

Detective: You were
looking for protection

in exchange for information
about this girl right here.

Did you kidnap her?

Matt: I helped.

Detective: Where did these kids
go, the ones you kidnapped?

Matt: All over.

I don't work in that
part of the business.

I just set the traps,
help with credibility.

Sometimes I drove.

Not anymore.

Detective: What inspired
the change of heart?

Matt: She was just so young.

I...

I can't do it anymore.

I don't know.

Detective: Do you
recognize this girl?

Matt: Yeah.

Detective: I have surveillance
footage placing you and her

at a bowling alley over a year
ago with this man right here.

And did you kidnap her
like you did with Tiffany?

I, uh, didn't know
that was her name.

Detective: Yeah.

Did you know this girl's name?

Matt: Mmm.

Detective: Well,
her name's Hope.

She's 16 years old.

Now that...

is still a kid, Mr. Haynes.

Hey, look at me.

I need everything that you know.

Where are these girls?

Matt: I don't know.

They take them.

Detective: Who takes them?

I need names!

Matt: They all use fake names.

I don't know who any
of them are, really.

Detective: I don't think this
is enough for me to help you.

Why are you wasting my time?

Matt: Look, I don't know
where the girls are.

Once they're gone, they're gone.

I don't know where they go.

But I know him.

And I can tell you where he is.

Jewel: You want some?

Hope: Yeah.

Thank you.

Jewel: [Sniffs]

[Sniff]

So, what's your deal?

Hope: My deal?

Jewel: Yeah.

How long you been in this dump?

Hope: Oh.

I don't really know.

A while.

It's really hard to keep track.

Jewel: Yeah.

Yeah, no kidding.

Hope: How'd you end up here?

Jewel: Queen knows my ex.

He used to be the
one getting me jobs.

Then he kicked me out.

Literally.

Left a bruise this
big on my stomach.

Hope: Sorry to hear that.

Jewel: Yeah, he's a real catch.

And then, Queen picked me up
off the street, hooked me up,

told me she could
get me some jobs

if I pay her back
for all of this.

Hope: So, you came
here by choice?

Jewel: It's not like I had
a lot of other options.

Hope: How old do
you think she is?

Girl down there?

Jewel: I don't ask questions.

[Music]

Hope: What is it?

Skyler: I had a nightmare.

Tiffany: [Crying]

Mom?

Is that you?

No, please!

No, please!

Come back!

Come back!

I wanna go home!

I wanna go home!

Please!

Come back!

I wanna go home!

Pastor: I shall not want.

He makes me lie down
in green pastures.

He leads me beside
the quiet water.

He restores my soul.

He guides me along the
path of righteousness

for his name's sake.

[Buzzing]

[Door shuts]

Garrett: Thank you.

They found the guy, the
one from bowling alley.

[Muffled speaking]

[Sirens]

Valerie: What about Hope?

Garrett: They're still
questioning him.

They...

They don't have any
specific information yet.

They're...

working on it.

Valerie: It's OK.

Garrett: Oh, I want to
get my hands on him.

Valerie: I understand.

I do.

Garrett: No, Val,
I wanna kill him!

I'm sorry, Val.

Valerie: I know.

Garrett: I'm sorry.

I just want her back.

Just want my baby back.

[Music]

Man: Yeah.

What?

Understood.

We're leaving.

Hope: I'm not dressed.

Man: You don't need to be.

[Music]

Tiffany: What's happening?

Hope: I don't know.

[Inaudible speaking]

Tiffany: What's happening?

Man: Shut up and move.

[Inaudible speaking]

Tiffany: [Screaming]

No!

[Screaming]

Queen: Come on, you next.

Jewel: Where are you taking us?

Queen: I told you
not to ask questions.

Jewel: [Grunts]

Hope: [Breathing heavy]

Man: Count it.

Let me know how much is in it.

[Engine starts]

I think it's just gonna be
the two of us for a while.

One of my contacts
just got busted.

So, we have to move
somewhere else.

And, uh...

Queen?

She's gonna be all right, okay?

We'll see each other soon.

Hope: Ok.

Man: [Whistling]

[Music]

Garrett: [Sighs]

Garrett: That's right.

Dad tax.

How are you doing over there?

Let me get a little
of that burger.

Waitress: Good morning.

What can I get you
all started with?

Man: Good morning.

I will have a two
o'clock breakfast.

Some coffee, please.

Waitress: You bet.

Man: Thank you.

Waitress: And for you, sweetie?

Hope: Oh.

Waitress: It's okay.

I can come back if
you're not ready.

Hope: It's okay.

I'll have...

the same thing.

Waitress: Perfect,
I'll get those put in

and be right back
with some coffee.

Man: [Clears his throat]

So, what do you think?

Hope: About what?

Man: Being out.

Ordering your own food.

Nice, huh?

You can have this more often.

Hope: Okay.

Man: I don't know
if you noticed,

but I let Queenie
live her own life.

And she came into my
life just like Jewel

came to those other
people last night.

And it was almost
five years ago.

Do you know what
the difference is?

It's trust.

I trust Queen.

And the girls that I trust
tend to do very well.

Don't you agree?

Hope: Yes, sir.

Man: I know I've grown to trust
you in the last year and a half.

I mean, it took a little time,
but I think we're getting there.

You stopped trying to run away.

You moved to a nicer room.

And you did your job
without complaining.

Hell, look at you now.

We're eating in public.

Do you see how this kind
of works in your favor?

Hope: I do.

Man: And the more I trust you,

the better your
life is going to be.

How does that sound?

Hope: Good.

Man: Ah.

Attagirl.

[Chuckles]

I'll be back.

Oh, wow, look at that.

Girl: Thank you.

Man: You're welcome.

Hope she's okay.

[Music]

[Bell rings]

Waitress: Here you go, hon.

Two hot coffees.

Cream and sugar right
there on the table, okay?

Your food should be out shortly.

Hope: Okay, thank you.

[Music]

Hope: Why are we stopping here?

I need to know that
you're honest with me.

Hope: Okay.

Man: Did you ask for help?

Hope: What?

Man: Huh?

You're playing stupid with me?

The cops in the diner.

Did you say anything?

Hope: No! Man: No?

Huh?

Are you lying to me?

Hope: No, I didn't say
anything, I promise.

I'm not lying.

I trusted you.

Hope: I didn't say--

Man: This is how you repay me?

Hope: I didn't say
anything, I swear.

Man: You looked at them.

I swear-- you
looked at them.

Hope: I didn't.

I didn't look at them.

Man: You're lucky.

Maybe they didn't
pick up on it, okay?

Because obviously, they
would have been here by now.

I hate when you make me do this.

I just...

Why does it have to be this way?

Why can't you just
learn the lesson?

Hope: I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to look at them.

I kept my head down.

[Music]

Man: Ok.

All right.

I guess we got lucky this time.

All right.

Let's go.

[Starts engine]

Hope: Do you have any tissues?

Man: We'll get some inside.

I'm gonna go in and get a few
things for the new place.

Okay?

All you need to remember
is just stay by me.

And don't do anything stupid.

You understand?

[Music]

Hope: I have to go
to the bathroom.

Man: Hold it.

Go when we get home.

Hope: I can't.

It's...

an emergency.

Man: K, make it quick.

[Chuckles]

[Winces]

Woman: Are you okay, sweetheart?

Hope: What?

Woman: Are you okay?

Hope: [Crying]

Operator: 911, what's
your emergency?

[Music]

Hope: [Crying]

Operator: All units, respond
to Summit Square Mall.

Officer: 10-4.

[Sirens]

Officer: Hey, wait!

Man: Blaze!

Blaze!

Officer: Freeze!

Operator: Missing
juvenile located.

Female.

[Siren]

16 years old.

Hispanic.

Last seen...

Officer: Hey, stop!

Stop him!

[Sirens]

[Music]

Officer: Drop your weapon!

Drop your weapon!

On the ground, now!

Drop your weapon!

Get up!

I got him.

Officer: Don't move.

Officer: You have the
right to remain silent.

[Phone ringing]

Garrett: Yeah.

[Crying]

[Buzzing]

[Door slams]

Detective: Ahem.

Hope: [Breathing heavy]

Man: Look at me.

I said look at me.

Keep your mouth shut and
remember what I told you.

Hope: [Screams]

Man: Or Skyler's next.

Come on.

Nurse: Hope, look at me.

It's okay.

[Sirens]

Officer: Police! Search warrant!

Officer: Search warrant!

On the ground!

On the ground!

On your knees!

Hands behind your back!

Hands behind your back!

Stop resisting!

Stop moving!

[Music]

[Crying]

Garrett: So, uh, think she might
be stable enough to come home?

Doctor: In my personal opinion,

I don't believe home is
the best place for her.

Right away.

We don't know the full extent
of what she's been through,

but in cases like this,
the physical recovery

is just the beginning
of the healing process.

I can recommend a number
of Stage 2 facilities

where she can begin the
emotional recovery that she needs.

Valerie: We have been talking
to a counselor at our church,

so she can have a few
meetings when she comes home.

Doctor: With respect, I believe
what your daughter needs

is inpatient psychological care.

Garrett: Inpatient?

No, our daughter is coming home.

Doctor: I understand
why you want to do that.

But ignoring this next step
could leave her susceptible

to trauma responses
and a relapse.

Maybe.

Garrett: No.

No.

We're not checking
her in somewhere.

I am not letting her
out of my sight again.

Oh, someone say lunch?

That looks pretty
good, actually.

Doctor: In case you
change your mind.

Valerie: Thank you.

[Music]

Hope: Can we go home?

[Children playing]

[Door shuts]

Garrett: Everything
should be pretty much

just the way you remembered it.

And of course, we put
fresh sheets on the bed

as soon as we heard you were
stable enough to come home.

Sorry.

It's...

It's been a...

a while.

[Sighs]

It sure is great having
you home, though.

Hope: I'm sorry.

Garrett: It's okay, honey.

If you need anything,
just let us know, okay?

Tiffany: Mom.

Is that you?

Skyler: Hope, are you okay?

Dinner's ready.

[Music]

Valerie: It's so nice of the
Johnson's to cook dinner for us.

And it's good too.

Hope, do you like it?

Hope: Mm-hmm.

Valerie: They were asking if
they could swing by the house

and check in on you sometime.

Thinking maybe this
weekend, if you're feeling--

Garrett: I don't know, honey.

I don't think anybody should
be coming over anytime soon.

Valerie: Well, it's not anybody.

Johnson's are basically family.

[Chuckles]

Garrett: No, no, no, no.

My hope is if she's here,
she's getting some rest.

Valerie: Yeah.

She will be here.

Just think it might help her
get things back to normal.

Garrett: I know what
you're saying, honey.

I'm just saying maybe
if we let her get...

Hope: What about Nan?

Can we have Nan over?

[Music]

[Crying]

Valerie: I've been
praying for you every day

for the past two years.

I know God will get
you through this.

Did I say something wrong?

Hope; No.

It's fine.

Valerie: I'm sure it
can be hard for you

to still believe in God after
what you've gone through.

Hope: Yeah.

Valerie: But I
know he loves you.

And I know he can help you get
through this if you trust him.

There's a song that says, "God
is our refuge and strength,

always ready to help
in times of trouble.

He is with you now, and
he has always been hope.”

Hope: Doesn't feel like it.

And a Bible verse is not
what I need right now.

Valerie: I'm sorry, Hope.

I wish I knew the
right things to say.

Hope: It's fine.

Thanks.

It's nice to just
talk to you again.

Valerie: I love you, Hope.

Whenever you feel
like talking...

I'm here.

And if you don't
feel like talking...

I'm still here.

[Music on Tv]

Valerie: I brought
you some food, mija?

[Music gets louder]

[Buzzing]

Queen: Stop moving.

Hope: [Breathing heavy]

Garrett: Hey, hey, honey.

Shh.

Hope: No!

Get away from me!

[Crying]

[Music]

Valerie: She's not
doing well, Garrett.

Garrett: I know.

Valerie: I think we should
take her doctor's advice.

She's not gonna get the
care she needs here.

Garrett: We can see
if her therapist

can do more days a week...

however many it takes.

Valerie: We need to do
what's best for her.

Garrett: No, Val.

I am not checking her into some
group home across the state.

She can get what she needs
and still come home at night.

Valerie: Is that what she
needs or what you need?

[Music]

Garrett: We just got her back.

Valerie: She's not back.

Hope, there's something we
want to talk to you about.

Garrett: Your doctor
told us about a place

where girls that have been
through what you've been through

can get the recovery they need.

Valerie: We called them earlier,

and they seem like
lovely people.

I think you could be happy
there if you wanted to go.

Hope: How long would
I be going away for?

Valerie: As long as you need.

Garrett: It's completely
up to you, honey.

You don't have to go.

And if you don't like it there,
you can come back any time.

Valerei: It's your decision.

Hope, we want you to
get the care you need.

And we feel like you may not
be getting that with just us.

Hope: I wanna go.

Garrett: Are you sure?

Hope: Yeah, I do.

[Music]

[Inauble speaking]

Jennifer: Great, great.

And you must be Garrett.

So, nice to finally
meet you in person.

I'm Jennifer.

I'm one of the counselors here.

Garrett: Hi, Jennifer.

Jennifer: So, Hope,
when you're ready,

I can help you get settled in.

You have everything you need?

Hope: Yeah, I think so.

Jennifer: Great.

Valerie: Come here.

Jennifer: Can I grab
that bag for you?

Garrett: Oh, yeah, sure.

Thank you.

Jennifer: Of
course. My pleasure.

Valerie: I love you, Hope.

Call me anytime.

Hope: I love you, too, Mom.

Garrett: I love you, honey.

Let's go, sweetie.

[Chatter]

Jennifer: Hey, Hope,
room's over this way.

So, we normally host
about a dozen girls here,

but at the moment,
we only have nine.

Which means you get to
choose your own room.

You want more floor
space or bigger windows?

Hope: Bigger windows.

Jennifer: That's a good choice.

We try to set it up so that
everybody has their own room.

Sometimes we have to double up.

But you'll pretty much have
this space all to yourself.

Feel free to move things
around if you need.

Hope: No, this is...

perfect.

Thank you.

[Horse neighs]

Jennifer: You like horses?

Hope: Yeah, I do.

Jennifer: Yeah.

They were a big help for me,
too, when I first got here.

Hope: You stayed here too?

Jennifer: I did.

Yeah.

I was a guest here
for about two years.

And then, when I felt like I got
to a place I was ready for it,

I joined their
mentorship program,

and I started working
on my counseling degree.

I just wanted to help people the
way that they helped me here.

Hope: Two years.

Sounds like a long time.

Jennifer: Maybe it was.

But it was worth
every minute for me.

Hope: Do you think that's how
long it's going to take for me?

I don't think anyone's
on a timeline.

I think everybody's different.

What care looks like for
you might be different

with the care that
somebody else might need.

What matters is
that you are here,

and you are welcome to stay here

for as long as you
need, Hope, OK?

Do you want to go see him?

Hope: Yeah.

Jennifer: Yeah?

OK, come on.

We'll finish the
tour on the way.

Hope: OK.

Jennifer: It's not going to take
you long to make friends here.

A lot of our activities, like
gardening, for instance,

give you an opportunity to get
to know some of the girls here.

And if you want to be alone,

there's plenty of
time for that too, OK?

We do have about 10 acres of land
here with this beautiful lake,

a bunch of hiking trails in
the back that you can explore.

We do incorporate daily
exercise into our routine,

but don't worry,
there is a lot of time

to rest and relax afterwards.

Oh, hi girls.

How are you?

I didn't get a chance to
say hello this morning.

[Music]

You know, that swing
is pretty popular

with a lot of our residents.

It is very therapeutic if you
ever want to give it a shot.

Hope: Yeah, that sounds nice.

Jennifer: Yeah?

What are we waiting for?

It's horse time.

Here, take one of these.

You know, I like to think
he enjoys saying hello,

but I think it's
just the carrots.

Hope: You might be right.

[Laughs]

Jennifer: So...

How do you know Kylee?

I noticed the two of you seemed
to recognize each other earlier.

Hope: Yeah.

She stayed with me for a bit
at the place I used to be.

Jennifer: Are you going to be
OK having her around here, too?

Hope: I think so.

I'm just glad she got out.

Last time I saw her, she
wasn't in a good situation.

Jennifer: I'm sure
you weren't either.

Hope: Yeah.

So, all the girls
here, are they...

I mean, have they
all gone through,

you know, what I went through?

Jennifer: Everyone's experience
is unique to them...

but, yeah.

In a general sense...

They've all had similar
experiences to you.

Hope: And it works.

You feel okay now,
even after everything?

Jennifer: Yeah.

I do.

I mean, it has not been
easy getting to this place,

but I can tell you there are
three things that got me here.

Counseling, Ok.

Then, a great community.

And finally, a personal
relationship with Jesus.

OK, but I promise
you, it's no pressure.

You do not have to be a
Christian to stay here.

And we don't act like
believing in Jesus

is going to fix
everything right away.

But if you ever have any
questions about Him...

I'm here.

Hope: Thank you.

Jennifer: Well.

It's almost dinner time.

So, I'm going to go
help get things set up.

But feel free to hang out
here as long as you need.

Hope: OK.

Jennifer: I'm really
glad that you're here.

Kylee: Hey.

Hope: Hey.

When did you get here?

Kylee: About a week
or so, I guess.

It's kind of hard to keep track.

Hope: Yeah.

I get that.

Kylee: Glad you got out.

Hope: Yeah, you too.

How'd you ended up here?

Bishop gave the cops
a tip about Queen.

When they found
her, they found me.

I don't know why I
thought I could trust her.

Hindsight's 20/20,
though, right?

Hope: Yeah.

Kylee: And I didn't really
have anywhere else to go.

The doctor's told
me about this place.

It seemed nice.

There's a...

a lot of Jesus talk, but...

it is nice.

Hope: I'm kind of relieved
to see a familiar face.

Kylee: Yeah, same.

Hope: Do you want to go for a
walk or something before dinner?

Kylee: Yeah.

I'd like that.

[Music]

[Alarm beeping]

Naomi: Hey.

Hope: Hey.

Naomi: I'm Naomi.

What's your name?

Hope: I'm Blaze.

Hope.

My name is Hope.

Naomi: Nice to meet you, Hope.

Are you excited for yoga?

Kylee: Hey.

Girl: I've never done it before,
so I'm a little nervous.

Naomi: I think you'll be fine.

Hope: Me too.

[Music]

Instructor: One,
two, three, four.

Stand up.

Instructor: We've got
a new batch in today.

Everyone grab a pair of
gloves and pick a plant.

That's a good one.

[Chuckles]

[Horses neighing]

Jennifer: So...

first couple days here,
what do you think?

Hope: It's different,
that's for sure.

Jennifer: Okay.

Well, different good
or different bad?

Hope: Different good.

I think.

I've been really busy,

so I haven't really
had time to process it.

Jennifer: Well, that's the idea.

You want to stay
busy with these,

so you're less busy with this.

But we obviously
want to make time...

to focus on this as well, hence
why you and I are here together.

Hope: Do I just
talk about anything?

Jennifer: Yeah.

You can talk about whatever
you want to talk about.

Hope: Um...

I'm sorry, I don't really know
where to start or what to say.

Jennifer: OK, well, what's
been on your mind today?

Um, I found the prayer
room last night.

Jennifer: Okay.

What'd you think about it?

Hope: I don't know.

There were a lot of Bible
verses taped around and...

I mean, some of them were nice.

But...

there was one that kind
of bothered me, honestly.

Jennifer: Okay, you
remember what it said?

Hope: Yeah, it was
something like...

If you forgive other people
when they sin against you,

God will also forgive you.

Jennier: Right.

What was it about the
verse that bothered you?

Hope: All of it.

I mean, I understand the idea.

I know in church,

they say you're supposed
to forgive people, but...

is this saying that God won't
forgive us if we don't?

Jennifer: That's a
challenging question.

Well, if that were the case,
how would you feel about it?

Hope: I think that
would be unfair.

Also, I thought the
whole point of Jesus

was that God is
supposed to love us

regardless of what we've done.

I mean, isn't that what
everyone's been saying here?

Jennifer: No, you're right.

The grace that we receive
from Jesus is free.

It's a gift.

You don't have to earn it.

But if you accept it, He'll
separate you from your past,

and He'll make you a new person.

Hope: OK, but that's not
what this other verse said.

The verse in the prayer
closet made it seem like

you have to forgive in
order to be forgiven.

Jennifer: OK.

Well...

how do you feel about forgiving
the people who hurt you?

Hope: I don't think...

That's...

That's not going to happen.

What they did was unforgivable.

They should go to prison,
all of them, forever.

They shouldn't be allowed
to hurt anyone ever again.

Jennifer: I agree with you.

And they should be
brought to justice,

and hopefully they will.

But what is it that makes
their actions unforgivable?

Hope: They're criminals.

Bad, horrible people.

They took everything from me.

I used to be...

normal.

I had a normal
family, a normal life,

and they took that from me.

They took that from me,
and I'll never get it back.

All the girls I used to know,

they're graduating high school,

and picking out colleges
and going out with boys,

normal boys.

And what do I get?

I'm an addict.

I'm a dropout.

I'm a whore.

I didn't get to choose
anything in my life.

Everything just happened,
and I just had to take it.

Now I can't sleep.

I can't breathe.

I can't talk to my family.

I can't let my dad touch me.

And it's because
they did this to me.

I didn't get a choice.

I didn't get a choice
about anything.

I didn't choose to do drugs.

I didn't choose to let people
buy me out for a night.

I didn't choose to leave
behind everything in my life

that was good.

It was them who did this to me.

And I am never going to
forgive them for that, ever.

I can't.

Jennifer: Hope, I am
so sorry for the things

that you went through.

Thank you for
sharing that with me.

Sounds like a heavy
burden to carry.

Hope: Yeah, it is.

Jennifer: Those words that
you use to describe yourself,

would you use words like
that to describe someone

who isn't using drugs,

who's not being
taken advantage of,

and who's free from the people
who were holding her captive?

Hope: No.

I probably wouldn't.

Jennifer: Okay.

What kind of words would you use
to describe someone like that?

[Music]

Hope: Victim.

Jennifer: Okay.

Hope: Former victim.

Jennifer: Anything else?

Hope: Survivor.

Jennifer: Okay, me gusta.

How would you describe
a survivor, Hope?

Hope: I don't know.

Strong.

Brave.

All the things I'm
not, basically.

Jennifer: You don't think
you're strong or brave?

Hope: Look at me.

Jennifer: I am.

And I have to say, Hope,

I'm going to have to
respectfully disagree with you.

You are right.

You did not have a choice in the
things that happened to you.

You are forgetting you did
something incredibly brave.

You asked for help.

So, don't trap
yourself in the words

that they would
have used for you.

Use new words...

True words...

Your words.

Hope: [Crying]

How can I do that when all
I hear are their words?

Jennifer: That is why
we are here, okay?

When those old words
come into your head,

we're gonna challenge
them with new ones.

[Music]

When you think of
an alternative word,

I want you to write
it down and tell me.

Any luck?

Hope: Yeah, I came up with one.

Jennifer: I'd love to hear it.

Hope: Safe.

Jennifer: Safe.

I like that.

Why safe?

Hope: Some nights...

No.

[Panting]

...I keep feeling like I'm in
danger, like I'm all alone,

and that the people
I used to live with

are going to come get me.

They're not.

I'm not in danger.

They can't get me,
even if they tried.

And I'm not alone.

I'm safe.

I'm actually safe.

Jennifer: I really like what
you've come up with so far.

Did you think of any
new ones this week?

Hope: Yeah.

Healing.

Jennifer: Oh.

I like that.

Why'd you pick healing?

Hope: Lately, I keep
thinking I'm a mess,

I'm broken, I'm unfixable.

But I don't think that's true.

I'm not doing great, exactly.

But I'm getting there.

I'm healing like everyone else.

And if this place really works,
then I'm going to keep healing.

Jennifer: What else?

Hope: Hopeful.

Jennifer: What does
hopeful mean to you?

It means that you think things
might end up being okay,

that tomorrow's going to
be better than yesterday.

Jennifer: And would you say
you've been feeling hopeful lately?

Hope: Sometimes.

Yeah.

Sometimes.

Jennifer: Sometimes is good.

We'll take sometimes.

Great job, Hope.

[Music]

Instructor: OK, girls,
let's roll them out, OK?

Get them flat.

And once you're finished with
that, we'll add our toppings,

and then we'll put
them in the oven, OK?

You're working on it.

Push it a little more.

I mean, get it flat.

Yeah.

Do you have any siblings?

Hope: Yeah, I have a sister.

Instructor: Oh, me too.

[Chuckles]

She's probably almost
twice your age,

but I still call her
my little sister.

Some things you just never lose.

Hope: [Gasps]

[Muffled speaking]

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to.

Man: [Chuckles]

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Instructor: Look at me, honey.

Look at me.

[Speaking normally]
It's just a dish.

It's OK.

You're OK.

Man: [Chuckling]

Instructor: It made a loud
noise, but you're safe here.

You're OK.

OK.

I'll go clean it up.

[Music]

Hope: [Screaming]

No!

No!

I'm safe.

Someone help me!

[Screaming]

[Panting]

Kylee: What brought it back?

For me, it's the quiet.

It's too quiet here.

I need noise to stop thinking.

Here.

Come here.

You're okay.

You're okay.

Hope: Just...

Just a moment.

It's gonna pass, right?

Kylee: Yeah, that's what I
keep telling myself, too.

[Music]

Hope: No.

No.

No, please.

No, stop.

Stop.

No.

Kylee: Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hope.

Hey.

Hey.

Hope: Hey.

What's happening?

Why are you dressed?

Kylee: I'm leaving.

Hope: What?

Why?

Kylee: I, um, I've been texting
this guy from back home.

He's cool.

He's not like Bishop, or
my ex, or the other guys.

Um, and he said I
could stay with him.

But you could come
too, if you want.

Hope: No, I don't want
to go stay with some guy.

And you shouldn't go either.

What if he's not
who he says he is?

Kylee: He's fine.

I mean, we grew up together.

And he's...

He's a dealer.

So, you know.

Hope: Kylee, you were in a bad
place when you were an addict.

We both were.

Why would you want
to go back to that?

Kylee: Aren't we supposed
to be feeling better?

Isn't that the whole
point of this place?

Hope: Yes, but healing is a
process, not an event, okay?

It takes time.

Kylee: It takes time, yeah.

Yeah, that's what
they keep saying.

But I've been here for a month.

I'm not feeling better.

So, what am I supposed to do?

Hope: I think...

You should just stick
it out a little longer.

It'll be worth it.

You just have to keep trying.

Kylee: Is it worth it?

I mean, you had a full-fledged
panic attack today.

I had five this week.

Did you feel that
when you were using?

Hope: Things were
a lot worse before.

Kylee: Yeah.

Sometimes I felt good.

I can't remember the
last time I felt good.

Hope: You're going to.

Okay, yes, I had a bad day, but
I'm going to have better ones.

And you will, too.

We can have good days together.

Come on, don't go back.

Not back to that.

Kylee: I'll sleep on it.

Hope: No, hey.

Say you'll stay.

Please.

Kylee: Okay.

I'm gonna go back to bed now.

Since apparently I'm staying.

It means more exercise
in the morning.

Hope: Don't go back.

Stay and hang out with me.

I wasn't really sleeping either.

Kylee: You don't think less of
me for wanting to leave, do you?

Hope: I don't.

I promise.

Kylee: Ok.

I guess I'd be
staying up anyways.

Hope: Okay.

Do you want me to
braid your hair?

Kylee: [Muffled
speaking] This is...

this is a good story, actually.

So, this is when I
was, uh-- [inaudible]

[Normal speaking] They
had to call animal control

to get the alligator
out of the water.

[Music]

[Birds chirping]

Kylee: Hope.

I'm sorry to leave like this,

but I wanted to
spare you the tears.

It's better this way.

I'm glad this place seems
to be working for you.

I wish it was for me too.

I hope you find all the healing
you've been looking for.

I hope I find it too.

Hope: Kylee's gone.

She ran away.

Jennifer: Violet, can you
please give me a moment, okay?

Ok, Hope.

I am so sorry.

Hope: She's going to
meet with some guy.

He's a dealer.

She's not safe.

We have to go after her.

Jennifer: I understand, but
this was Kylee's choice.

Hope: What?

Jennifer: She checked
out this morning.

Administration told
me when I came in.

Hope: And they let her go?

Wait, why didn't
anyone stop her?

Jennifer: Hope, this
place isn't a prison.

People can leave when
they want to leave.

We just hope that they leave
when they're ready to.

Hope: She's not ready.

She's going back
to the exact thing

that got her here
in the first place.

How can we just let this happen?

Jennifer: Listen, I wish
that she hadn't left either.

But maybe after I am
done with this session,

you and I can talk
about it together.

Hope: No, I don't
want to talk about it.

Talking isn't going to help her.

Talking isn't going
to do anything.

Jennifer: I need you to listen
to me and take a deep breath.

I just--

Hope.

[Music]

[Door shuts]

Jennifer: Hope.

Can I join you?

[Sighs]

So, since we're officially
not in a session together,

may I share something with you?

Hope: Okay.

Jennifer: So, when I was here,

I came really close
to leaving, too.

Those first three months, I
mean, they were the worst.

And your body's still going
through the withdrawals,

your brain is still
going through the PTSD.

And some people...

they start yearning for the
medicine and not the healing,

and they think
they're gonna find it

where they found it before.

I am so glad that I stayed.

I'm so glad that you stayed.

It breaks my heart
that Kylee left.

I wish I could say
she was the first.

But she's not.

And every time one of our girls
leaves before they're ready,

it hurts just as much as
it did the first time.

Hope: I thought the
hurting was going to stop.

And now, Kylee's gone,
and I just feel so angry.

Jennifer: Are you
feeling angry at Kylee?

Hope: No.

I'm not angry at her.

I'm angry at them...

The people that put us here.

We got away, but
they keep winning.

If I'm having a bad
day, they show up.

If I can't sleep, they show up.

And now, Kylee's gone, and they
are going to be real for her.

Again.

Not them specifically,
sure, but people like them.

And they are going to take
what they want from her again.

These people keep
winning, and I just...

I hate them so much.

Jennifer: I get that.

No, I do.

I get that.

All right?

I used to hate them, too.

Hope: What made you stop?

Jennifer: Time.

Look.

It helps.

Hope, I mean, everybody
heals in their own way.

I can't say that's what's gonna
work for you, but it did for me.

Eventually...

I forgave them.

Hope: How?

Jennifer: Look, I...

I never thought
that I would ever

be able to forgive
my traffickers...

after what they put me through.

But forgiveness,
in this case, Hope,

it has nothing to do with them.

It's about you, what
you're storing in here.

Look, when we're hurt, we hold
all of that hurt in our hearts.

Okay, that's normal.

We all do that.

But when we can forgive...

we can start to release all
of that anger, and that pain,

and that grief that's been
keeping us from moving on.

We can let go of the way the
past has given our life meaning.

We can finally be free.

Hope: But how do I do
that when I keep feeling

the way that I'm feeling?

How do I forgive...

when I completely shut down
every time I think about them.

Jennifer: You're
still processing, OK?

That is OK.

Keep processing.

Maybe while you're working
through those feelings,

maybe there's something
that you can store

in place of the thing that
you want to let go of.

Hope: Like what?

Jennifer: I don't know.

It's your heart.

You get to choose.

[Music]

Valerie: If you ever feel like
reading again, start here.

The Lord is my shepherd.

I shall not want.

He makes me lie down
in green pastures.

He leads me beside still waters.

Garrett: He restores my soul.

[Phone buzzing]

He leads me in paths
of righteousness

for his name's sake.

Jennifer.

Even though I walk through the
valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil.

Hope: For you are with me.

Your rod and your
staff, they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.

You anoint my head with oil.

My cup overflows.

Surely goodness and mercy

shall follow me all
the days of my life,

and I shall dwell in the
house of the Lord forever.

[Music]

[Crying]

Hope: God, I forgive them.

[Crying]

Jennifer: Are you ready?

Just go slow, just be careful.

Here we go.

I baptize you in the
name of the Father,

and the Son, and
the Holy Spirit.

[Music]

[Cheering]

Yes!

I'm so proud of you!

Oh, I'm so proud of you!

[Cheering & Laughter]

[Door opens]

Hope: [Laughing]

Natalie: "Still Hope” is based
on the powerful, true stories

of two young women with the
courage to survive the horrors

of trafficking and brave
the road to recovery.

I hope this film
serves as a reminder

there is light in the darkness,
true freedom and forgiveness,

and there's always hope.

It is estimated that more than
27 million women, children,

and men are being
exploited right now,

having been trafficked
so others can profit

from their work or their bodies.

These advocates who offer
comprehensive long-term care,

are well equipped
to honor, lift up,

and guide those who are
ready to receive support.

Your voice matters.

Your support matters.

I encourage you to
join in this important

and courageous work of healing.

We need your help.

So, please, take out
your phone right now,

scan the QR code on the screen,

or you can visit
stillhopeproject.com

to learn more about how
you can get involved.

All proceeds and donations
generated from this film

will support organizations
and ministries

leading the fight to
eradicate trafficking

and bring hope to the
survivors through aftercare.

Darkness thrives in silence,

but your voice can be the
light that sets someone free.

It's up to you and me to remind
others that there is still hope.
