Help!

Help! Somebody!

That scared the living
crap out of me.

Meryl Streep that girl was not.
Who's Meryl Streep?

Oh, Zoe, she's like Katie
Holmes to our parents, okay?

So, what's next, ladies?

I have to go home.

No. Yeah, make that
a block from home.

I can't have another close
encounter with my parents.

They think I'm home in bed.

Were you kids in bed
at a reasonable hour?

I stayed up till 10:00.

After 9:00,
Rhett was fast asleep.

Who's driving these monsters?

I will. Nicki's selling coffee at
school and I promised I'd help her.

Hmm.

I know, it sucks.

Do not say "sucks." Say
"disappoints" or "bites."

I don't need a lunch. I can walk
across the street with Tash.

And have pizza three days in a row?
I think not.

That's really good.

The proportions are perfect,

but are you drawing what
you're really seeing?

The simplest thing
is the hardest.

To see what's really
right in front of you.

Hey, so what mad fun
is on for tonight?

Oh, I am so grounded.

I got busted by my 'rents
sneaking back inside last night.

Damn, girl,
how'd you manage that?

My dad set the motion detector.

It seems like our parents are getting
paranoid about us in their old age.

Mine still trust me.

It's beautiful.

Well, it hasn't been a bad
couple of decades, considering.

For me? Better than the
first two without you.

To 20 years of you and me.

And to our children,
safe at home.

Cool, you lost them!

Totally macho
Mustang boys, too boot.

Boo-yah! We struck
a blow for sisterhood.

That's the only "blow"
you know, sister.

Diss.

So what's the rave
scene this weekend?

Full Moon Underground.

I've been hearing San Bernardino.
Probably Saturday.

I'm gonna tell my mom I'm staying
over at your house, okay, Tash?

I cannot believe you can
still work that old scam.

What can I say? My 'rents
are just adorably clueless.

So, I'll bring the glowsticks
if somebody else buys the gas.

Oh, that's such a good idea.
Nice try, beams.

Rest up, it's gonna be one
hell of a weekend. Bye, Tasha.

Don't let the bedbugs bite.

Hasta.

All right.

Hasta.

Now they call the cops on me.

Hello?

Hello?

I'm sorry I'm late.

Ruby Baker?

Yeah, I'm Ruby.

And, you know, whatever
they said, I'm not missing.

I just went out.

Your parents were
in a car accident.

Are they okay?

Ruby, why don't you
have a seat, hon?

Are they okay?

My partner's gonna help
you to have a seat.

Ruby.
I can sit down myself!

I understand.
I said, are they okay?

Relax. I need you to relax.
Why won't you answer me?

We're here to help you.

You're gonna be okay.
Relax.

Ruby?

Ruby! Ruby!

She will be okay.
Get her pulse.

Can you hear me, Ruby?

They are as asleep.

In the morning they are
like grass which groweth up.

In the morning, it
flourisheth and groweth up.

In the evening, it is
cut down and withereth.

For we are consumed
by thine anger,

and by thy wrath
are we troubled.

Thou hast set our
iniquities before thee,

our secret sins in the
light of thy countenance.

For all our days are
passed away in thy wrath.

We spend our years
as a tale that is told,

so teach us to number our days.

So that we may apply
our hearts into wisdom.

I think Rhett Baker wants
to come up and say something.

Rhett?

I just…

I…

I just wanna say…

I…

I just…

It's okay.

I didn't work with Dave and
Grace or see them every day,

but I knew them
both for ten years,

and I'm sure if they
could hear all this…

Well, Grace would do her
dismissive little giggle.

You know the one.

And Dave would mutter
an expletive deleted.

They would just hate to be
remembered as anything but ordinary.

Which is exactly what they were.

Anything but ordinary.

But they will live on

through their children
and in all our hearts.

Ruby?

Do you remember me?

I'm your Uncle Jack,
your mom's brother.

I'll go wait by the car, okay?

Look, I just want you to know if
there's anything that you need,

anything I can do…

I don't mean in the next few
weeks or months, I mean anytime.

How come I haven't seen you in,
like, I don't know, ten years?

Have you even met
my brother Rhett?

Of course I have.

I haven't seen either
of you in years, but,

first of all, I live pretty
far away, in Chicago.

Then how are you gonna help us?

I don't know.

There's the phone,
there's e-mail.

You and my mom never did
write each other though.

That's true.

You know, Ruby, as siblings get older,
sometimes they go their separate ways.

I know you and Rhett
are close now.

No, we're not.

Discounting DNA, we
have nothing in common.

I used to feel that
way about your mom.

It's not true.

I used to think that
when things slowed down,

I'd take a month off
and come out here,

and get to know you
and your brother

and Grace again.

It's nice to see you again. I'm
sorry things didn't work out.

I'll call you later, okay?

Okay.

Ruby?

Hi.

I'm Alvin Begleiter.

Hi.

I'm so sorry.

I'm your…

Was your parents' estate lawyer.

I helped them plan their wills,

what it is that they wanted
to do with their money and…

Well, actually the most
important issue right now,

is who's going to be taking care of you.
You and Rhett.

I'm assuming that you know
the Glasses, correct?

They were my next-door neighbors.
I've known them my whole life.

That's good, because I
know that your parents

chose them after a great
deal of consideration.

You know,
there's something else.

Your parents were
extremely thrifty,

and with your mom's share
of the inheritance,

your dad's life insurance,

there's more than enough for you and
Rhett for the rest of your lives.

Well, then, obviously
you don't know Rhett.

That's good.
I like that.

I'm gonna give you one of my cards.
I don't expect any trouble.

But if you have any concerns,

any problems,

I'm an estate lawyer, but I'm also
what they call a trust lawyer.

And I wanna be someone
you can trust.

You call me, okay?

Okay.

Mr. Glass.

Ruby.

Thank you.

My mom and dad would have
really loved that speech.

They would have loved it.
Come here.

That's good.

We're gonna get through this.

We're gonna get through
it together, okay?

Oh, Ruby.

You're in good hands.

Hey!

You guys ready for Malibu?

It'll be a big change,
we won't lie.

But it's not
the worst place either.

Cool!
Is this your car?

You in there already?

My company's, on loan for today.

Sweet.

This place is huge.

Hey, Rubes, check out this view.

Yeah, it's pretty amazing.

Cool!
A meteorite.

It's art.
It's art, Rhett.

Terry, give them the grand tour.

Stall them while
I order some dinner.

Let's get the lay of the land.

So, master suite.

Home gym.

Home theater.

Sweet.

It's like you never
have to leave home.

Oh, if only.

This is Vicki. She
comes in most days.

Hello.

This is your room.

It's just temporary
quarters, of course.

Well, you unpack, get settled,

and I'll meet you
in the kitchen.

We're sharing a room?

If you even glance at me when I'm
changing for bed, you are so busted.

Okay, we have a little calamari,

we have a little risotto with
portabella mushrooms. Mmm!

And a little green salad
with some Swiss chard.

Do you have any Garfield?

What is that?

It's crap in a can.

If it's crap, how
come you eat it?

Come on, kids.
Try the calamari.

Isn't that squid?

Honey, tonight…

I'll call Domino's.

Thank you.

Can't you just turn
and face the wall?

Who are you, the Blair Witch?

No, I'm worse. Can you just
face the goddamn wall?

Turn that stupid thing off.

Honey, there's public school,
and then there's public school.

Trust me, there won't
be any Bloods or Crips.

I'm not scared of
getting gunned down.

Ruby, you're a great kid.
You're gonna have…

It's not about being great or not great.
It's about being…

New?

Middle-of-the-year new.

Look, there's a little saying that we
teach to the patients in the pain ward.

This too shall pass.

This too shall pass.

This too shall pass.

Hi. Why don't you just
take a seat in the back?

We have a new addition.

Would you introduce
yourself, Miss Baker?

You just did.

Hi.

I'm Ruby Baker.

I used to go to Shady Lane.
That's in the Valley.

That's not my choice, it was
just an accident of birth.

So how come you moved here now?

That's another accident.

Let's all make Ruby
feel welcome.

Thanks for the lift, Vicki.

Sweet!

I can't believe it.
I can't believe it!

Neither can I. Like one of those
isn't noisy and obnoxious enough.

No, Rubes, because you can't play
Pokemon Snap on Playstation.

But you can play Ape Escape,
but you can't on N-64.

Mom and Dad would
totally just freak out.

Don't talk about Mom and Dad.

I haven't even seen, like,
one girl with blue-black hair.

And all the guys spend all
day surfing and swimming,

that whole bizarre physical
culture of sun-worshipping.

Well, that sounds fairly hot.

So, anyway, I was crazy
checking my pager all day,

'cause I figured you'd
call, and you didn't.

I was just dying to call you at lunch but
the cell phones are banned at the school.

And, like, the kids
just don't care.

You know, they just can't see that
they've lost their civil liberties.

Probably 'cause they
have so much sunstroke,

they're, like,
permanently wasted.

Ruby?

I got us an assortment of
different things this time.

Some cold pastas, some salads.

Ruby, I really think that you would
be well served by a better attitude.

It's…

It's okay.
I don't mind take-out.

I know that you guys are busy. It's not
like it's from Wendy's or anything.

I'm speaking about your attitude
toward your new school.

My attitude?

I overheard your conversation.

You were listening in
on my call?

No, I was trying to get a line
out, but that's beside the point.

The point is, you need
those kids to like you.

Otherwise you're just going to
isolate yourself, sabotage yourself.

You're going to have
a miserable time.

Okay, I get it.

I learned something.

Ruby?

Ruby.

Wake up.

I'm awake.

Wake up.

Mommy?

Mommy?

My God, you scared
the crap out of me.

Well, I heard noises.

I thought it was a
burglar or a coyote.

I'm not used to having kids
in the house.

Come here.

Thank you.

You gotta be freezing.

So no more 3:00 a.m. swims,
okay?

With all the glass,
you can hear everything.

I gotta start setting
the alarm at night.

Are you coming?

Though drunk-driving
among California teens

has been steadily decreasing,
we can still do better.

As these images starkly attest,

alcohol remains the number one drug
problem among young people today.

This year, more than 20%
of teenage drivers…

So, how was your first
day of driver's ed?

Fine, I guess.

They still show those
gruesome movies?

Honey, those were the dark ages.

I'm sure they have more enlightened ways
of teaching kids today, don't they?

May I be excused?

Stupid kid-proof
piece of crap.

Ruby?

Was it awful?

I mean, the driving class?

I can just imagine.

No, it's…

I have my period.

Oh.

Well, come with me.

Thank you.

Four out of five
doctors recommend.

This cramp, too, shall pass.

I'll turn it off just as soon
as I get to a safe point.

It's cool.
I don't care.

It's kind of relaxing.

Erin! Get out of there!

What were you doing in the
bathroom? Tell me the truth!

What are you implying
with that question?

You tell me.

No, I'm not going to answer you.
Good night.

What the hell were you doing?

Getting ready for bed.
I'm tired.

Watch your language.
There's kids in the house.

Don't play games with me, Erin.

Don't play games with me. You know
exactly what I'm talking about.

I'm too tired to even guess
what you're picking at.

I am sick of your accusations.

Tired? Is that what
you call it now?

How many times have I asked…

I've done everything
you've asked me to do.

So help me…

Ruby?
Hi, I'm Hannah.

Hi.
Hi.

So, there's this rumor you were on
academic probation at your old school.

Cut to the chase, huh?

I was, and then I had sex with the dean of
students, and he took it off my record.

Oh, not really.

I was supposed to be at my friend
Tasha's house one Saturday night

doing an essay on the Yalta conference,
and went to this rave instead.

Come Sunday, I was totally fried and
downloaded this thing off the Net.

Tuesday, I was busted.

Hannah!

Hey!
I gotta go.

Bye.

Hey, what are you doing?

Hey, Ruby.

There's a premiere in Westwood,

and my company's driving
a bunch of people.

I gotta stop by and make sure everything's
running smooth. You wanna come?

Well, I have homework tonight. Probably
three more hours. Pretty heavy, so…

That's perfect.

So, are we going to catch the tail end of
the movie or go straight to the party?

Actually,
the hell with Westwood.

If my drivers can't
handle a lousy premiere…

Evening, sir.

Mud pie for the lady,
Ketel One, rocks, for me.

Great.

Thank you.

That party'd be a mob scene.

What I really want
to do is talk to you.

- Here you are.
- Thank you.

I remember when you guys
moved down the block,

what, 11 years ago?

It was funny.

I noticed the furniture
as they brought it in.

Erin noticed
there was a little girl.

But you were upset.

I guess about
moving cross-country.

You wouldn't say a word.

Just hugged this plastic doll
against your little chest.

Malibu Barbie, I think it was.

Prophetic, huh?

I think you
mean "pathetic."

No, no, no.

I guess you moved on years ago.

From what?

From hugging plastic dolls.

I should hope so.

Last night, when you
two were fighting,

it had nothing to
do with us, right?

No, no, no, no, no.

Married people sometimes like to

push each other's buttons
just because they can.

It's another form of intimacy. A
lower form, but nothing serious.

There's one thing I haven't
told you about Erin.

It can be lonely
living with her.

But that's my cross to bear.
Not yours.

I think it's past
my bedtime, Terry.

Of course it is.

Let's get you to bed.

Terry.

You're not wearing
your shoulder belt.

Hey. Try not to
make too much noise.

I'm sure Rhett
and Erin are asleep.

Okay?

Hamlet senses something's
wrong right under his nose,

that he alone can set right.

I want two pages next
Friday on what he means,

and whether he succeeds.

Mr. Begleiter,
before my parents…

Um…

Did they ever talk to you about finding
different guardians for Rhett and me?

Different from the Glasses?

Mmm-mmm.

Well, I think
that they wanted to.

They talked about that with you?

No.

But my parents weren't nearly as
friendly with them after they moved.

Well, Ruby, the Glasses
aren't your parents.

They're never gonna
be your parents.

But if Erin or Terry
has done anything…

We sleep in one room,
Rhett and me.

Well, that's not ideal.

And then, the other night, we were
alone in Terry's car, and he…

What? What'd he do?

He just put my seat belt on.

But the way he leaned across
me, it wasn't… It just…

And I felt…

I know it sounds stupid.

But… And then I walked in
and Erin was shooting up.

I saw her holding a needle.

Anyway, she looked really baked.

Ruby.

Ruby, try and understand this.

The accident, in effect,

orphaned you and your brother.

So, if this doesn't work
out with the Glasses,

you have no place to go.

You're gonna become
wards of the state.

And I'm not trying to scare you.

I'm just telling you
the facts of life.

I drove halfway here from
Malibu with the housekeeper,

and then I hitchhiked the rest of
the way, and I was really scared.

But I kept telling myself, once I
made it, you'd help me and Rhett.

When we met, you said you
were somebody I could trust.

Okay.

All right.

I believe you, and I know
who to get in touch with.

It's not gonna be easy. I can't
promise you any results.

But I can promise you that
I will look into this.

You have my word on that.

Thank you.

When we spoke
after the funeral…

Mmm-hmm?
Uh…

You had said that… We
had more than enough.

Mmm-hmm.

How much would that be, exactly?

Well, that's really a question
for the trust officer

over at the LA Federal Bank.

But between us?

Four million dollars.

So you can see, you're
financially very secure.

Yeah.

Now why don't you run on home
and do me one more favor?

No hitchhiking.

This is out, okay?
Yes, sir.

Yeah, Alvin Begleiter calling.

I just had a real disturbing
visit from Ruby Baker.

Rhett, why don't you
leave that now?

Go and do some homework.

I have a bunch
of homework to do, too.

Stay a minute, would you?

What you walked in on
last night isn't what you think.

Erin suffers from diabetes.

I've kept that private.

It's not something I want
to worry you or Rhett about.

The disease is under control.

So what you saw last night

was Erin giving herself her
nightly insulin injection.

It must've been a
shock to walk in on.

One more thing.

Terry tells me that…

You got a little skittish
with him last night.

That makes us feel sad.

We want you to trust us, Ruby.

We need your trust.

I know I overreacted.
I'm sorry.

There are still some things that I
need to get used to around here.

We all do.

We're all under stress.

I'm gonna go begin
my Hamlet paper.

Well, hey, if you need
any help, let me know.

That'd be great.

That's fine, and now you're
gonna put the car in park…

And step out.
Mmm-hmm.

And Ruby, you're going to
get behind the wheel next.

You can apply a little
more gas, Ruby.

I'm sorry, I'm a
real bad driver.

There aren't any bad drivers,
just inexperienced ones.

Now take a breath, Ruby. Let's
start driving back again.

No, Mr. Robinson, I'm
sorry, he's not in right now,

but I'll have him call you
back as soon as he can.

Hi. Uh…

I'm Ruby Baker.
I'm, uh, Terry's…

I know who you are, Ruby.

Okay, cool.

Uh…

I stopped by to catch a ride
home from Terry when he's ready.

He's having a powwow
with some people right now,

but if you want to wait, there's
a really nice lounge behind me.

Okay, thank you.

Glass Transit.
How may I help you?

Any available service
technician, please come to the office.

May I have
the phone number please?

Okay, is he arriving
at 8:00 p.m…

So, what's going on, Terry?

Oh, the usual.

But not to worry, fellas. It's
nothing that can't be handled.

Mr. Glass,
we had a payment plan.

The dates arrive,
the money doesn't.

About that payment plan,
in the cold light of day,

I would have to
call it unrealistic.

You proposed that plan.
Yeah, I know. I know.

It's not dishonesty.
You gotta give me that.

What is it, Terry,
if not dishonesty?

Naive optimism.

But then again, I'm
an optimist by nature.

That's how I succeed in
business, by betting on myself.

I'll be right with you.

Where is the money
we loaned you, Mr. Glass?

You're not listening.
The money will be…

Don't say "will be," always say
"is," as in "the money is…"

Yeah.

Can I help you?

Whose car is this?

Hell if I know. Just
showed up one day.

One day when?

Uh, I don't know,
a few months ago.

We used to have a car
kind of like this.

You know, you really
shouldn't be back here.

Ruby!

Ruby!

What happened before was nothing.
It was just a business glitch.

Hope you didn't get freaked.

People get very weird
about money.

I didn't mean to, uh,
just show up like that.

You know, I waited for
Vicki, and she never came.

Yeah, we had to let Vicki go.

Erin was coming for you, but she
got held up at the hospital.

Wait, back up. You
had to let Vicki go?

Yeah, we had to. She drove you
somewhere without anyone's permission.

Just to Santa Monica, to the
promenade, to hang out with some kids.

Mmm-hmm.

How did you know
that she drove me?

How did we know?

It's our job to know.

Did you have a hard
day at work, Erin?

Oh, it was fine,
Ruby, thank you.

Hamlet.

Don't you hate how he
can't make up his mind?

Mmm-hmm.

To be, not be, not,
not be, be, be, not.

My father drove a Saab.

Terry!

Thank you.

You know, finishing my paper.

Ah, that would be wrong.

Ruby?
Yeah?

Would you mind coming with me?

Sure.

Ruby Baker?

I'm Nancy Ryan. I'm an inspector with
the Department of Social Services.

Your estate lawyer let us know that you may
have some problems with your guardians.

Is that right?

Ruby, please relax
and be open with me.

Everything said here
stays private, okay?

So,

you're 16, and your
brother is 11.

And you're currently
sharing a bedroom.

Yeah, for now.

And,

you saw Erin Glass
injecting herself?

They said she has diabetes.

Diabetes? Okay, I'm gonna
double-check that.

You're writing down
everything I say,

so that now it's gonna
be in writing twice.

My word's still not
gonna count for shit

next to Terry Glass
and Dr. Glass, right?

Which is why, when we're done,
I'm gonna phone the Glasses

and ask them to meet me at their
home so that I can verify everything

with my own eyes.

Okay?
But…

Then how am I gonna live with them
if they know that I told on 'em?

Do you want to live with them?

Sometimes things are fine.

Last night, Terry helped
me with something,

but maybe that was just to keep
me happy, keep my mouth shut.

I know this is scary for you,
but you don't have to worry.

In a situation like this,
we tell the guardians

that we're performing
a routine site inspection.

If it's still in progress
when you get home,

you just act like we've
never met or spoken.

You have no idea why I'm there.
Okay?

Ms. Ryan, this is my
husband, Terry Glass.

Hello.
Hello.

Is this really necessary in
the middle of a business day?

I mean, 15 minutes notice?

We're gonna get this done as
quickly as possible, Mr. Glass.

Feels like an intrusion.
Let's get it over with.

- May I…
- Of course.

It looks like only one
child sleeps in here.

Yes, Rhett.
Rhett, yes.

And the girl, Ruby,
she has her own room?

Of course.
She's 16.

Nice accommodations.

I think the kids are home.
Would you like to meet them?

Yes, I would.
Just to say hi.

Oh, but first, Dr. Glass,
may I look upstairs?

I know this is awkward,
but it's also important.

It's a matter of child safety, just
ensuring there's nothing dangerous

in easy reach
of an 11-year-old.

"Humulin L and U."

Diabetes. I'm type one,
insulin dependent.

And we have it totally
under control.

It would appear that you do.

There's the two best
kids in the world.

Hi. You must be Rhett.
I'm Nancy Ryan.

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

So, Rhett, how do you
spend your evenings?

Well, when I finish
my homework, I read.

And you must be Ruby. You
have a very nice room.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

You've made a wonderful
home for these children.

Thank you, Dr. Glass.
Thank you.

Oh.

We'll see you out.

You read?

You lie.

Guess who I learned from?

Good-bye now.

Why don't we order
some dinner, hon?

So, how do you
like your new room?

It couldn't have come
at a better time.

Come on, Mr. Begleiter.

Hello?

So sorry to disturb you at
your home at this late hour.

But I found myself wide awake and
wondering, "Where's the money?"

Well, you might as well know.
Six months ago, I took on a partner,

a silent partner. And,

it just recently
came to my attention

that the little son of
a bitch was skimming cash.

You lost me. What does this all
have to do with our little loan?

I'm waiting, Mr. Glass.

Mr. Glass,
you still there?

Yeah.

He was charging a whole host
of personal expenses to the company.

Guess what, Terry.

Whenever I want to hear a
heartbreaking human interest story,

I can watch the local news.

Meanwhile, your next payment is
due tomorrow, close of business.

Do you fully understand me,
Mr. Glass?

Mr. Glass?

Yeah, I'm here.

And I'm seeking full restitution
from my silent partner.

Plus, I found a whole
new source of equity.

My big, new personal piggy bank.

So you can expect another 30
grand from me right off the bat.

That barely covers the interest.

You need to start paying off
the principal, my friend.

Of course, but the point is that I need
some more time. Not a lot more time.

A week at the most.
A week at the most?

We'll give you two days, as a
favor, because we like you,

and because we'd hate for you
to come home tomorrow night

and find your beautiful house
burned down with your wife inside.

Yeah?

"I could a tale unfold whose lightest
word would harrow up thy soul,"

"freeze thy young blood,"

"make thy two eyes, like stars,
start from their spheres"

"and each particular
hair to stand on end."

"If thou didst ever
thy dear father love,"

"revenge his foul and
most unnatural murder."

"Murder most foul…"

"But this most foul,
strange, and unnatural."

Begleiter, Tepper and Brice.

Hello, this is Ruby Baker
for Mr. Begleiter, please.

One moment, please.

Hello, Ruby.
Did you get my e-mail?

No, 'cause Terry trashed
my AOL account.

Or maybe the bill just didn't get
paid in the confusion of your move.

Whatever. Did you find
out about the BMW?

Right, the BMW.

Yeah, it was registered
to a business, G.T.I.

Glass Transit, Incorporated.

Terry's company.

So now don't you get it?

Ruby, please come with me.

I think I have to
call you back later.

Bye-bye.

This is Miss Bassett,
our vice principal.

Ruby, the paper that you
turned in to Mr. Kim,

that was your work,
nobody helped you?

No.

Not even Harold Bloom?

The phrase "Hamlet's
dance of contraries"

didn't sound like
one of my students.

I found it and other sentences and
phrases in Mr. Bloom's recent book,

Shakespeare:
The Invention Of The Human.

We were told there's already one case
of plagiarism on your school record.

Do you understand why we have to take
decisive action in a situation like this?

You were told?

By who?

That is hardly the issue
here, young lady.

This sort of cheating has
to have real consequences.

We've already spoken
to your guardians.

Of course you have.

And frankly, we're not sure whether
you can continue at this school.

Well?

Why don't you ask Terry?

Or maybe it's time you started taking
some personal responsibility, Ruby.

Yeah, maybe it's time.

Hi, you've reached Jack Avery.

I'm out of the country, but I'll be
checking my machine occasionally,

so leave a message.

Come on, Rhett. Wake up.
Oh…

Shh, don't make a sound, okay? I'm
gonna get you dressed. We're gonna go.

Where? With who?
Away with me.

Hey, quit it.
You're looking.

Right, like there's
something to see.

It's raining. I was sleeping.
I don't wanna go.

Yes, you do, it's
gonna be really fun.

They're giving away free Dragon
Ball Z tapes at Blockbuster

and we can get in line real
early and avoid the rush.

Really?

Whoa!

Close the door.

What if they find out?

I'll take the blame, okay?
Just get in the car.

You don't know what
you're doing, huh?

You wanna slow down a little?

One thing I learned
from Terry, buckle up.

Whoa! Rubes, Terry's
gonna kill you!

Maybe so.

Turn that off.

Turn that shit off!

Look out!

You almost creamed that guy.

That's right.
Now turn it off!

I wanna go back.

We're not going back.

What do you mean,
"We're not going back"?

That's what I said, genius.
Figure it out.

We have to go back! You tricked me into
this, and now I'm gonna get in trouble.

No, they tricked you,
the Glasses.

What do you mean?
Did not. They were sleeping.

What I mean is they were gonna send me
away to the middle of goddamn nowhere,

so I couldn't be any more trouble, and
you'd just stay home with Terry and Erin.

I like Terry. I like Erin.

No, you like all the shiny shit
that they blinded you with,

so you couldn't see what
was right under your nose.

They made you lie to that social worker.
She could've helped us.

I didn't know that she was a social
worker, okay? All I knew was…

That you didn't want to be separated
from your beloved Nintendo.

They bought you off.

Where are you taking us?

I don't know yet. The point
was just to get away.

Crap.

Just don't say anything stupid.

The highway is closed
from here to Sunset.

There's a mud slide. You're gonna
have to use Malibu Canyon or…

Can I see your driver's
license, Miss?

My driver's license?

And your registration, too,
please.

It's over there
in all of my stuff.

I think I saw it over here.

I'm gonna have to ask you
to pull onto the shoulder

and step out of the car, please.

Officer!

These are my kids.

Terry Glass, Glass Transit.

The limos we loaned you for
last year's parade? Oh, yeah!

How are you?

Rhett, you poor baby,
come with me. It's okay.

We have a little behavioral problem
back at the old homestead.

She's going through a really
hard time right now, sweetheart.

God only knows what's
going on in her mind.

Well, you know,
teenage girl stuff.

Gotcha. Good luck.

Move over, hon.

You can turn around right here.
Thanks.

Don't you have anything
to say to me?

You killed my parents.

That's not just insane,
it's hurtful.

You were obviously threatened
by your business associates.

I saw it.

Like Erin said to me the other
day, "We need your trust, Ruby."

You need my trust, for sure.
Four million dollars' worth.

I got a thriving business. My
wife is a successful doctor.

I got a big, new…
New personal piggy bank!

That's just words out of context.
Just words.

What about your BMW my dad
was driving that night?

And what about it?

For your parents' anniversary,
I lent them a beamer

so Dave wouldn't have to drive Grace
around in that dinky old Saab,

which I hammered
out and repainted.

No good deed
goes unpunished, huh?

Because in your trashy teenage
mind, you twisted that into…

What do you think? I what? Cut the
steering linkage? Stripped the brakes?

Yeah.

It's understandable. It's
basic psychology, you know?

'Cause you don't wanna blame
your dad for what happened.

The fact that he had too much
booze in him that night.

Then you'd have to ask
yourself why your mom and dad

were hitting the bottle so hard.

Whose bad behavior had
driven them to drink?

Get this straight, Ruby.

You and Rhett are mine.

Now I suggest you forget your lurid,
adolescent female fantasies and start…

Help! Help!

Let go, you bastard!
Better calm down, little girl.

Help!

Ow!

What's happening out there?

Your sister is having a tantrum, honey.
Come on.

Come back to bed.

No! Let me go!

Get off!

Let go!

Now listen hard, Ruby.

Anything happens to you, we got
Rhett for seven more years

and all we need is
one surviving child.

Erin!

Erin, stop him, please!
Please!

Erin!

Erin, please come help me.
Please!

He's not gonna hurt you, I promise.
Please! Shh.

No! Erin, please,
no! Erin, no! No!

Thank you for being
such a good listener.

You'll feel better now, Ruby.

Rest, relax.

Now where to, ladies?
I vote the mall.

Hey, wait, timeout. Has
anyone heard from Ruby?

Me? Not for a month.

Same. Won't even
answer my e-mails.

What up with Little Miss Malibu?

Too busy bodysurfing
for her old gal pals?

Well, then, we are
too busy for her.

Hello?

Where is the rest
of our money, Mr. Glass?

You're just not
gonna believe this.

The bank mailed me a check,
but with the wrong zip code.

Some incompetent jerk at the bank
inverted the last two digits.

So basically I
will need another…

Next in line.

We gotta expand the house.
A wing for the kids.

Sir.

Our little boy is getting
bigger and bigger every day.

Of course, the girl's a teen. I don't know
if you've got any kids of your own…

Anyway, construction costs
in Malibu are off the charts,

and I'm estimating a
quarter million, minimum.

Well, we'll need to see blueprints, Mr.
Glass. There's an approval process.

Well, you can't get blueprints
without an architect,

and my architect is looking for
cash down payment. He's in demand.

I believe we advanced you

$30,000 for that purpose
just last month.

But that was for a room, Ted.

Before I realized
I needed a wing.

And isn't it a general
principle of a guardianship

to keep the
children comfortable?

Here's the trust document.

It authorizes me to use trust
money to enlarge the house.

And isn't it also
a general principle

that the guardians aren't
supposed to suffer economically

in the fulfillment
of their obligations?

Mr. Glass…

I'm paying two tuitions
at the Westcott School.

I'm employing
a full-time nanny.

These kids are seeing top therapists
to help them deal with a tragedy.

I'm planning family trips
to broaden their horizons,

and it's like a root canal every
time I need reimbursement.

Where did you get that?

I thought you faxed
it to us last week.

Which is why I'm surprised
to hear you say

you have both children
enrolled at Westcott.

Did I say Westcott?

We changed our minds about Westcott.
It's too glitzy.

Listen, we gotta do what's
best for the children.

Isn't that the truth?

Thank you for waiting, Doctor.
I can take your order now.

Yes, I need five dozen
10 cc syringes fentanyl,

and I need two dozen
20 cc syringes Demerol.

We sent up 60 of fentanyl
on Monday, Doctor.

Yes, but as I noted
in the chart,

I had to double the PC infusion
rate of Demerol in six patients.

Dr. Glass?

Deidre, I'll be right with you.

I'm on the phone
with the pharmacy.

Dr. Wise wants to
see you in his office.

The medical director.

Wake up, Ruby.

Sleeping beauty.

All you do is sleep.

It scares me.

So you're losing
your medical license.

That's wonderful.

I have a sickness.
Yeah.

It's called self-pity.

Complicated by being born
without a freaking backbone.

So I'm weak, am I?

Maybe I am.

But at least I'm not hopelessly
greedy and reckless,

borrowing a million dollars from
some loan sharks and Tarzana and…

Which I would've
paid off by now!

We had a good thing going until you
stuck your hand in the cookie jar.

A good thing?
You son of a bitch!

I was a doctor.

Yeah, but you turned
yourself into a junkie.

Not until you did what you did.

Where were you when I did it?

Right.

I saw an opportunity, Erin.

I saw an opportunity,
and I grabbed it

because I had what you didn't.

I had the nerve, the will.

Since nobody was giving me a
second chance, I just took it.

I'm not doing this anymore.

Listen, it's already done.

What this is about is containing
the damage, you understand?

Good.

You know we're gonna have
to get rid of the girl.

Speaking of which,
we're dry, aren't we?

We've got nothing to
take care of Ruby with,

so I guess I have to go
out and get something.

And if I can't find
drugs in LA…

Hi.

Wave at the camera,
Ruby. Wave at the camera.

They can't catch me.

Come in the water, Erin!

Wait for me!
I'm coming, too!

Okay.

Spin me, Erin! Faster!
Whoo!

Rhett.
Rhett, move away.

Erin!

It took some doing, but finally I
found some pharmaceutical morphine.

Erin?

God, not now.

Erin.

Erin!

1875 Montego Canyon.

Well, I thought
you'd want to know.

Ruby?

Honey?

Terry needs to sit down
and talk to you kids.

Shh.

You kids are a handful,
you know that?

Where's your sister, eh?
Where's your damn sister?

Let go off of me!

This is where I should've
put you from day one.

Ah.

What's happening?

He just pulled out the Jag.

He just walked
back in the house.

Okay, just keep working.

He's sleeping.

He fell asleep. There's gonna
be a change of plans, okay?

Why would he do that?

He's bombed! He's finished
off a bottle of vodka.

Look, it's right there
on the floor.

I think I see what's
really right in front of me.

Begleiter, what's going on?

Mr. Glass, you ought to have
your wife take a look at that.

She's not at home.

You know, I called your office and
they said that you'd be at home.

I kept calling here and nobody
answered, so here I am.

The bank has blocked
your guardianship account,

pending an investigation.

The trust officer,

he believes there's malfeasance.

The sons of bitches.
Mr. Glass,

I went out on a hell
of a limb for you.

I warned you about the girl's
claims, about her e-mails,

about her accusations because I trusted
you and the Bakers trusted you.

But if you've been lying, then
the courts are going to step in,

and if these children are taken
from you, they have no place to go.

He thought he was helping us.

Mr. Glass,
where are the children?

At their music lessons.
Their piano lessons.

You just watch. Next, I'll
have to buy them a Steinway,

and the chintzy bastards at the bank will
say, "Can't they learn to play the kazoo?"

No.

That's my Testarossa.

No, that's our Testarossa.

You see, until we get our money
back, it's our Testarossa, Terry.

So you planned to skip town this morning?
Leave us in a lurch, buddy boy?

That's nuts. Where'd you
get an idea like that?

Well, your wife was kind enough
to call us this morning,

give us a little heads-up.

My wife?
Uh-huh.

So before you leave town, how
about repaying the entire loan

in one lump cash sum?

That son of a bitch
doesn't have our money.

What's going on, Terry?

Ask him.

Your silent partner?

Bastard robbed me blind.

Oh, my God. I'm leaving.
No, no, no, no, no.

You're not going anywhere.
Really?

Yeah, I think we're
entitled to an explanation.

From me?
Mmm-hmm.

I have absolutely nothing
to do with this.

Nobody listens anymore.

You happy, Terry?
Feel good about that?

Damn it, Terry,
you're a troublemaker.

I guess that took
care of the problem.

No, no, no, come on. We're gonna
discuss this in the car. Come on.

There's nothing to discuss.

Terry, just walk like a man
out to the Jag, all right?

That was the whole problem,
you've dealt with it.

The rest is pure profit.

Just not the Jag, okay?
The Volvo.

Wait here for one minute, okay?

Nice little drive in our car.
No, not in there!

No, not in there!
No! Not in there!

I don't even have the
keys to the damn car.

Don't sweat it, Terry, we've got
all the keys to all the cars.

Take the Volvo,
not the Jag, huh?

Let's go! Hey, let's go!

Okay! You win,
you win, you win!

You win?
It's over, okay?

But just please take the Volvo.
Okay?

You're making this difficult, Terry.
Whatever.

Take the Volvo. Brand loyalty.
I like that, Ter.

Oh, that little bitch.

You know, you're
some kind of joker.

We're gonna take the Jaguar.
No!

Hey, you haven't been to our Tarzana
office, have you, Mr. Glass?

We even got a handball
court and a sauna.

And way in the back we have
this, uh, special room.

Totally soundproof.

What the…

What the fuck!

What'd you do to this car?
What'd you do to this car?

Hi. You guys
need some help?

Yes.

Got everything under control?

Yeah, we got it covered, thanks.

Terry.

You two kids stay in the car.

5-L-1-10, I have a possible TC over
the side. Southbound, Malibu Canyon.

- I'll be out to investigate.
- Copy that.

5-L-1-10, I have a rollover
TC with one fatality.

I'm gonna need two
backup units. 10-4.

Ruby!

It's okay.

Ruby, go!

Drive!

Where's the stupid key?

It's okay.

Quick, get us outta here!
Let's go!

Come on, find them!

Ruby!

Need your help.

He's getting closer, Ruby!
I got 'em!

He's getting closer!

Drive, drive, drive!

Why are you stopping?
Get us outta here!

It's okay, honey!

Buckle up!
What are you doing?

Buckle up!

It's all forgiven.

Ruby, what are you doing?

You two okay? Go back
and wait by my car.

Things will get
easier from here on.

They already have.

Let's go home.
