Put the money in the bag.

Good girl, Rochelle.

Big day for Rochelle.

These are the things you miss when you don't let your mother drive you to

school anymore.

Hmm.

That don't sound like a good hmm.

Well... Your blood pressure is still high, Calvin.

That low-sodium, low-sugar diet we have you on doesn't seem to be working.

Well, I could have told you that, Laura.

That stuff can barely be called food.

Now I've got high blood pressure and I'm still miserable. Have you been keeping

up with those blood pressure self-checks I asked you to do?

Logging them in a journal?

Of course I have.

Oh, good. Let's take a look.

Well, see, I've been doing them like I said, but I don't quite exactly know

where they are at the moment.

Let's see if we can find him.

It ain't in there.

Calvin.

Would you believe I'm holding those for a friend?

Calvin, I am not trying to be the bad guy here. I'm trying to keep you around

a little longer.

Oh, hell, I know you are.

Hold the wastebasket for me.

Oh, well, now you're just trying to be cruel.

All right, all right.

We can't have you being too miserable now, can we?

That wouldn't be good for your health either.

My girl.

Get it in.

Yeah.

Good job, Hannah.

All right, ladies, settle down. Settle in, settle in. Hey, settle.

Thank you.

Great hustle out there today.

Big game this week, Northridge High.

Hannah, want to come up here and remind them what they're up against, Captain?

Yeah!

Okay.

Our record is better, but this is a rivalry game.

They're gonna come in here with something to prove. They're gonna be

tough, and they're gonna be mean, and they're gonna try to use every dirty

little trick they know to try to throw us off our game. But their dirty little

tricks aren't gonna be enough, because we're going to absolutely kick their

asses.

What are you still doing here? School ended like half an hour ago. I had a

makeup chem lab, and I figured I'd wait for you.

Okay, well, come on. I gotta go home.

Okay.

Hey, you want to come over to my house? My parents are gone and my dad forgot to

mark the level on the road. I can't tonight.

I gotta get home.

I'll see you tomorrow, okay?

At least let me ride with you if you're gonna go down that creepy road.

It's not creepy, it's a shortcut.

Laura? Hey, you gotta hear this.

What? Due to ongoing funding issues with the county, we unfortunately will be

forced to reduce the hours of all staff members.

I'm barely making it as it is.

Anna just started applying to colleges.

Rochelle is going to crap out any day.

You know, Alejandro might need some extra help at the shop.

Really? I'm sure he's going to be happy to give you the hours.

It's terrible hours, but it's something.

Monica, that would be really amazing. Of course.

i'll talk to him tonight thank you

My lucky shin guards.

Ew. They smell.

Like victory.

I have something to show you.

Is that what I think it is?

Oh, Anna.

I'm so sorry. I know you had your heart set on getting into Westbridge.

Wait, I thought a small letter meant bad news.

Just open it, Mom.

My baby is going to Westbridge?

I know. The money. No, stop!

This is a big day.

You worked your butt off.

Let me take care of the rest of it. You sure?

Seriously. I am your mom. You gotta let me mom.

I'm going to Westbridge.

You're going to Westbridge!

Let's go celebrate.

So, what does Max think about you going to Westbridge?

He doesn't exactly know I applied. Anna Grace.

I know. He just has his little heart set on the two of us going to HRCC.

Ah.

So his next question is, what does that mean for us?

Exactly. And I don't know.

Max is sweet, but he's also just such a high school boy.

Like most high school boys are.

I don't really want to talk about it right now.

Fair enough.

Okay. Mom is butting out.

But there's obviously something else on your mind.

Yeah.

Dad.

What about him?

I don't know.

Like, I should be excited to tell him, but it just makes me so anxious.

He'll immediately assume I just want money from him. No, he'll think I want

money.

We both know there are always strings attached with him.

I'm just like, why can't he just be a dad?

You know?

Like, I get it, you have a whole new life now, but I still exist, right?

Yes, of course you exist, Anna.

I gave up trying to figure out your father a long time ago.

You're absolutely right. He should want to just be a dad.

I don't think he knows how.

I mean, does he not like me?

Hey, no.

That is not what's going on here.

And he doesn't like himself.

I think we remind him of a past that he wants to forget.

But that's on him.

His choices that he can't live with.

Sometimes I want to forget that part of my past, too.

But without that past, I wouldn't have you.

And you make it worth it.

Look, I know this doesn't...

Make up for all that's missing, but I want you to know that I got you.

Okay?

And I, for one, am very excited to help send you to Westbridge.

You just remember all that I've done for you when it's time to put your mother

and her old folks home.

Mom.

I'm serious.

You're going to take care of me, right?

I will.

Promise? Yes. Okay.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Whoa, Rochelle, what's going on?

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

Come on. Come on.

Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.

Well, that doesn't look too good.

Right. Not the best time for a joke.

We'll call all the clubs. Have them tweet to a mechanic I know.

He's fair. I think it's too late for that.

Ugh.

Hey, Laura.

Are you okay?

Did we get a new car?

It's a loaner, just for the week. Rochelle finally crapped out.

Can we afford another car?

Don't worry.

You won't be able to help me with my tuition, will you? Hey, stop.

Look, between your scholarship and the financial aid, I will come up with the

rest.

And have money for a new car?

A used car.

A very cheap used car.

You sure?

Yes. Now get out of here and let me shop.

At least get something cool.

Used, cheap, and cool.

I got it.

Aaron.

You know a lot had to happen for me to actually call you.

No, it's not.

I thought you might actually want to be involved right now in this exciting time

in your daughter's life.

You know, like make up for lost time.

Of course it's expensive.

It's college.

And a good one, too.

Our daughter got into one of the best colleges in the country.

And after the mess you left us in, I thought you might...

Bend over backwards to make sure she can actually go.

But that's not the kind of dad you are, now is it?

Consider yourself lucky that I am not taking you back to court to renegotiate

child support.

After all those consulting fees that you're bringing down these days, I guess

no bad deed goes unrewarded, huh?

Wow.

You know what?

I'm done trying.

All I will say...

is that one day you're going to realize you do not get a second chance to be the

dad that anna deserves i hope you can live with yourself

mom

i've been thinking

Maybe it does make sense for me to go to community college.

At least for two years.

I mean, Westbridge accepts junior transfers, so... Maybe this will be

better. I mean, it'll give me time to figure out what I want to major in.

You sound like such a grown-up.

But you're not a grown-up.

Not yet.

I'm so sorry I'm putting you in this position.

In the morning.

I'm going to go to the bank and apply for a loan.

Big game today, huh?

Yeah, it's like Judgment Day for Northridge.

Anna, about the game.

You can't come.

You know I need all the hours I can get right now.

Alejandro needs help with inventory at the store, so I think I should probably

just go over there when I finish at the home.

It's fine.

I get it. Are you sure?

Yeah, it's fine.

Well, give him hell for me.

Yeah, we're gonna crush him.

You guys did so good today. It was such a good game. Dude, that play, you guys

crushed it today.

Hey, nice hit, dude.

Good game.

Thank you.

Hey, Nicole.

Hey, Max.

You destroyed them.

Thanks. Yeah, where's your mom at?

She had to work.

I can't believe she missed that game.

Wait.

Here she is right now.

Do you have any plans right now?

Actually, the girls are going out to celebrate, so I think I'm going to go

with them. Okay, yeah.

Totally.

See you later, though?

Yeah.

of Harmony Ridge.

UW-Madison is going to be such a game changer.

Victoria said it's like a non-stop party there.

Isn't out-of-state tuition like crazy expensive though? Says the team captain

with the athletic scholarship.

It doesn't cover everything.

Yeah, but that's what parents are for, right?

I mean, my dad's just going to cover all of that.

Oh, get this.

For getting in, he's going to get me a car.

Thank you.

Hello? Hello?

That's a beautiful jacket.

-1

-1, what's your emergency?

There's a guy.

I think he's dead.

Okay, miss. What's your name?

Um, Anna.

Okay, Anna. What's your location?

I was just biking down the mill service road.

Um, his truck was just parked here.

He's bleeding.

He's cold.

Anna, can I have you checked to be sure he's not breathing?

You still with me?

I'm sorry. I'm just... I'm scared.

He's not breathing. I really think he's dead.

All right. I'm gonna have you stay on the phone with me. I've got police and

medical on their way.

Okay. Just stay right there, okay?

Hello?

Hello?

Oh, yes, this is she.

What?

Uh, yes, of course. I'll be there right away.

Oh, my God.

I'm so sorry. I've got to go. It's Anna.

Wait, but... Ma'am, ma'am, it's your friend, and you can't get by. No, this

is my daughter.

Hey, hey, hey, hey. Anna!

Oh, my God. Oh, baby.

Oh.

Are you okay?

Excuse me.

Ma'am. Yes. Are you her mother? Yes.

Laura Kingman.

Detective Blevins, Harmony Ridge PD. Anna, I'm going to have a conversation

with your mother over here. Is that okay?

Sure. Can you follow me over here, please?

The body your daughter found robbed First National Bank today.

What? He was shot on the way out. He probably came over here to lay low and

ended up bleeding out.

Oh, my God. Anna didn't get there in time to save him, but...

She let us know there was a bunch of cash in the truck.

It was from the robbery.

We got the guard who shot him at the station for an interview. I'm going to

head there and get started. Do we know who our John Doe is?

We do not.

But I know he took one to the gut, though.

That is a terrible way to die, is long and slow.

Sorry. Is she the one who found him?

Yeah.

Anna, this is her mother, Laura Kingman.

Hi. I'm Detective Wilkes.

Robbery unit.

Is she okay?

I don't know.

She must have been terrified.

You want to join me for the interview?

No, you're good. I'm going to stay here and finish up.

I'll catch you later.

Okay, let's get you back to your daughter.

It's been a long night.

All right, Anna.

Hey, Anna, I'm going to let you go home with your mom, okay?

I'm going to give you my card.

If you need anything, seriously, feel free to give me a call, okay? Thank you.

Take care.

Night.

Are you ready?

Let's go home.

Okay.

Okay, yeah.

I brought you some tea.

How you doing?

Fine.

Fine.

I can only imagine how you're feeling.

You need anything?

Anna.

Yeah, sorry.

I don't know. I think I'm just really tired.

Okay. Well, try to get some sleep.

I'm fine.

Seriously. Yeah, but you saw a dead guy.

A shot dead guy.

Was he all, like, bloody?

I want to go back there.

What?

Don't you want to see where it happened?

Yeah.

This is definitely blood.

Is this where his car was where you found him?

Yeah.

I'm sorry. It's probably hard being back.

Why don't we get out of here?

It's not about the dead body, Max.

What is it?

I did something stupid, Max.

You left your bag here?

What are you doing? Are you crazy? You stole stolen money? I'm going to give it

back. I promise. I have to. Say what? You helped yourself to a lot of cash?

Oops.

What am I going to tell my mom?

We shouldn't be here.

Let's go.

Anna, come on.

How much is in here?

$10,000.

$10,000.

I just wanted to take enough to help my mom.

And now I'm stuck.

What do I gotta do?

You can keep it here.

Here? Max, I couldn't ask you. You're not asking.

It's my idea.

Just for a little while.

Until I can figure something out.

Yeah. I got you. Okay.

Thank you.

Can you come in here for a second?

Yeah.

You okay?

What's up?

I just got a call from Detective Blevins.

They want to give you an award for good citizenship for returning the money. An

award? But I didn't do anything.

Well, it's probably just PR for the department, but there will be a

ceremony, and you get your picture in the paper, and maybe there's some

scholarship money. Is there?

I didn't say, but maybe.

Do I have to?

Yes. This is a big deal.

And when have you ever been one to shy away from recognition?

Fine. Oh, and I made another decision.

Your future is far more important than my transportation situation, so I'm not

going to get a car right now. I'll just take the bus for a while.

It's only temporary.

How temporary?

As in, not forever.

I will make it work.

And then one day when you are rich and successful, you can buy me a Lamborghini

or something else equally impractical.

It'll be fine.

Oh my God, I forgot to tell you. I actually got another scholarship.

Really? When?

I found out yesterday.

But with everything going on, you know.

Well, that's great. How much?

$10,000.

Crazy, right? Yeah, they're going to pay it directly to Westbridge.

Anna, that's incredible.

Yeah. So.

You don't have to worry as much.

Well, I told you everything was going to work out.

I'm going to go finish some homework, okay?

You know, not just anyone could have resisted a temptation windfall like

this, but Anna.

You did the right thing. You brought a quick close to a violent day in Harmony

Ridge. And I know that we can be cynical about today's youth, but it's citizens

like Anna Kingman that remind me that the world is in good hands.

On behalf of the Harmony Ridge Police Department, thank you, Anna.

Hey, you okay?

Yeah, just didn't get a lot of sleep last night. Well, you're famous.

An award?

An article?

Such a fraud.

Why can't they just leave me alone?

Well, they'll definitely write another one once you get caught.

Thanks.

Hey, I'm kidding. I'm kidding.

Hey, you're not gonna get caught.

Have you thought about what you're gonna do with the money?

I don't know.

You don't know?

That's what I said, isn't it?

Why do you care anyway?

Why do I care?

Maybe because the money's in my house.

You volunteered. Yeah, and it's a pretty nice thing to do, right? So why don't we

let me in on your thought process?

You're right. I'm sorry.

I just need you to hold on to it for a little longer.

Okay.

But don't you think someone's gonna start looking for it eventually?

Who? The bank robber's dead.

Okay, sure, but the bank has got to know how much money was stolen, right?

I don't know.

Maybe he spent the money after he robbed the bank.

Okay, yeah, sure. Sometime in between getting shot and bleeding out to death,

he spent $10,000.

Sure, yeah. That makes sense. And what if he had accomplices?

Max!

Stop.

What are you trying to do to me? I'm asking the questions you would normally

ask. Well, you don't have to worry about it.

It's my problem to deal with. Right.

The money's just sitting in my closet right now, but sure, not my problem to

deal with.

You're right, okay?

I'm sorry.

Honestly, I didn't think this all through, and I have no idea what I'm

gonna do.

I don't have to pay my tuition for a couple months, so I'll just figure it

out.

What?

Nothing.

You're right.

You'll figure it out.

Good afternoon, ma'am.

Hi, can I help you?

I'm Detective Wilkes.

We met briefly the other night.

Oh, right.

Sorry.

How can I help you?

I was hoping to tie up some loose ends with this whole robbery situation.

I was wondering if I could ask your daughter a few questions.

Anna, questions about what?

Just confirming her statement, crossing T's, dotting I's, you know, all that.

You know, she's been through a lot.

She's honestly really traumatized. And I am sensitive to that.

Maybe just a couple quick questions and then I'll clear out of here.

Is she home?

No, she's not.

Well, why don't I leave my card?

And whenever it's convenient for you all, you can get in touch with me. I'll

come back. We can knock this out.

Actually, I had a few questions for you as well.

For me?

Well, you were in the bank that day.

Was I?

Yeah, the CCTV footage shows that you were in the bank right before the

robbery occurred.

Maybe so. I wasn't aware.

Do you know this man?

No, I've never seen him.

Not even at the bank that day?

I don't think so.

What were you doing there again?

I was applying for a loan.

A loan?

For how much?

$10,000?

What does that matter?

What is this?

Do I need a lawyer or something? Do you feel like you need one?

Look, like I said, I'm just tying up loose ends.

Chief says my bedside manner could use some work.

What's the word?

Overzealous.

Anyway, hang on to my card and, you know, if you can think of anything, just

call me.

You have a nice day now.

So what did that detective want?

Nothing. Just a couple questions to close out the case.

You told him I wasn't home.

Well... I figured I would let you decide if you wanted to answer any more

questions about that night.

Not really.

I kind of just want to put it behind me.

Okay, let's do it then.

I'll start dinner.

Anna!

Hey! I've been calling.

Sorry, I didn't hear you. Dinner's ready.

Okay, I'll be out soon.

Look. I know all this attention feels like a lot. If you want to talk to

somebody about it... I'm good.

Like with a counselor or a therapist, maybe?

Mom, just stop.

Okay.

Just wanted to offer.

How you doing today, Calvin?

Either my taste buds are dying out, or the food's getting worse.

It can't be that bad.

It's the same old food, just with a little less butter and salt.

Yeah, same old food, from bad to worse.

How about I distract you with a little lunchtime reading?

No. That's your Anna? That's her.

Wow, what do you know about that? Anna the hero.

Yeah.

She certainly doesn't feel like one, though.

Hmm? She says she's fine, but I don't know. I feel like it's messing with her.

Yeah, seeing a dead body ain't no easy thing.

I saw my first dead body during the war.

He was supposed to be my enemy, but still, it was a person, my age,

dead right in front of me.

It must be horrible for poor Anna.

Oh.

Does your dad still have that room?

Yeah.

Let's go to your house.

Okay. Come on.

Okay. Hey, slow down.

Slow down.

Hey, I think you're good.

Hey, honey, do your mom a favor.

Will you take the chicken out of the freezer for dinner?

Hey, I put a water on the nightstand for you.

What happened?

You pounded like a bunch of rum and then almost immediately passed out. What time

is it?

Crap, Max. Why didn't you wake me up?

I don't know. You seemed like you needed sleep.

Damn it, Max.

How is this my fault?

Are you just getting home?

Where have you been?

Studying at Max's.

Have you been drinking?

No.

Anna, you smell like booze.

Fine.

Caught me.

I drank a little bit.

What the hell is going on with you? Nothing is going on with me. Ever since

that night? Ever since that night.

What?

Okay, I know something awful.

Yeah, it was awful. I saw a dead guy covered in blood.

It's messed up.

And it's messed up that my mother is interrogating me. Okay, I am not

interrogating you. I am just trying to... It's too late to help.

You could have helped by being able to pay for my college like a normal mom.

Hey, that is not fair.

And that does not have anything to do... It has everything to do with everything!

My life is ruined.

Oh, I'm sorry that you think I ruined your life.

Look, I know you have been through things that no child should go through,

but that does not give you the right- You're not listening to me!

It's not about you.

It's about me.

And I'm tired of being perfect little Anna who always rolls with the punches

and never complains.

Maybe I'm not mature.

And maybe I'm not a good person.

But you don't understand.

You'll never-

understand. So stop trying and leave me the hell alone.

How you feeling?

My head feels better.

My pride, not so much.

I didn't know you partied like that.

Max, delete that! No way, this belongs in a museum.

Let's go.

Is that the car?

The one that's been following you? It doesn't matter, let's just go home. Nah,

forget that.

Max, no!

Hey, you!

What the hell do you think you're doing?

Guess that takes care of that.

Whoa, are you okay?

Yeah, I just... I need a second to breathe.

Okay.

Hey.

Hi.

The doctor said you had a panic attack.

I'm so sorry about last night.

I didn't mean any of the stuff I said. I'm so sorry. Oh, don't be embarrassed.

You were right.

I just keep messing everything up. Hey, I'm the one who's sorry.

I never should have made you do that stupid press conference.

Anna, you've been through so much lately.

And you're handling it all so well.

It's like we can't catch a break.

It's just not fair.

Anna, I mean this from the bottom of my heart.

I wish more than anything that I was able to give you a better life.

Mom, you've given me a great life.

I promise you, I will do everything in my power to give you the future that you

deserve.

I love you.

I love you too.

Mom?

Uh-huh?

I need to tell you something.

Okay, what's up?

The reason I've been acting so weird lately, it's not just because of what I

saw that night.

What do you mean?

It's because of what I did.

What you did?

I took some of the money that was in that truck.

Before the police got there, I took some of the money out of the robbery back.

$10,000.

There's no extra scholarship.

Oh, Anna, please tell me that this isn't true.

There was just so much money in there and things were so tough with college

and the car.

I only took what we needed.

Anna, how could you have done something like this? Do you have any idea how much

trouble you're going to be in if anyone finds out?

I think they already know.

And I think that's why the detective was here the other day.

And I'm pretty sure the police have been following me.

What?

Look, I know it was a very stupid thing to do.

And I know I'm going to prison for it.

I just want to get it over with. I deserve it.

I'm just like Dad, aren't I?

Anna, hey, you are nothing like your father, okay?

He didn't care who he hurt or what kind of collateral damage he left behind.

Just the fact that we are having this conversation means that you do.

Okay?

No.

That doesn't mean I'm not incredibly angry at you right now, but no one is

going to prison.

I'll just... I'll call that detective.

We'll let him know what happened. We'll return the money and we'll put this

behind us. No, you still have it, right?

Yeah, of course, but it's at Max's.

Okay, well, I'll drive you there right now.

Text him. What? Let him know we're coming. Come on, now.

Okay, go get the money. I'll wait here.

Detective Wilkes. Hi, this is Laura Kingman.

You came to my house the other day.

I have some information for you. That's great news.

Could I come by the station tomorrow morning?

Probably better if I come to you. Why don't I come by first thing in the

morning tomorrow?

Um, okay.

Sure. Great.

See you then.

So, you're just going to give it back?

I have to. I mean, I can't really handle all the skill. I'd be surprised if I

don't end up in jail.

Are you sure you want to do that?

I don't really have a choice.

Okay, wait. Let me take it back and give it to them. I can do it anonymously. Say

I found it somewhere. It's too late. I already told my mom.

I took it to help pay for college, but it just made everything worse.

College?

But HRCC doesn't cost $10,000. It's like $10 a unit.

I'm sorry, Max.

For what?

I'm not going to community college.

I'm going to Westbridge.

Westbridge?

But that's in Chicago.

I know it is. I thought we had a plan.

You had a plan. It's not mine.

And you were planning to tell me when.

Not today, obviously, but here we are.

Well, what about us?

Oh, my God, Max. Us is like the furthest thing from my mind right now.

I can't believe you didn't tell me.

Why do you even want to be with me anyway?

I'm not a good person. I'm a criminal. Yeah, and I'm your accomplice.

Stop being so nice to me.

You should be mad at me.

Did that make you feel better?

I can't do this right now. I gotta go.

Wait, no, no, no. You can't just give it back to them.

I understand the temptation.

There was so much more than this.

Hey, you're doing the right thing.

Is Anna here?

No, she's not.

I see.

I don't know how to say this, but Anna took some of the robbery money the other

night. But just because I told her to.

You told her to take the money?

You were right. I was at the bank that day.

I knew they were going to deny my loan. So when she found the truck, she called

me and I told her to take some of it.

She didn't want to.

And she never would have done this on her own.

I promise.

Here it is.

It's all there.

And obviously I will take whatever punishment is coming to me.

But please, leave Anna out of it.

It's not her fault.

Okay.

Good.

So, what happens now? I'm new to all this. Nothing.

Nothing. You're all set.

You're all set. Until next week.

Next week.

Yeah, think of this as a down payment. A down payment, but that's all the money

that we took.

There was a million dollars in that truck, Laura.

I'm sorry.

What is happening right now? That's what's sitting in an evidence locker

because of you and your daughter.

You were in on the robbery.

Yeah. Glad you called.

After high school, you kind of fell off the map.

Thought maybe you'd go to the NFL.

Kept looking for your name in the papers.

Thought so, too.

Had a scholarship.

Lots of hype.

And then, during a scrimmage, not even during a game, boom,

fractured vertebra.

Damn. Yeah, couldn't play at all.

Lost my scholarship, left school, a bunch of surgeries that were supposed to

help, but just made things worse.

Couldn't keep a job.

Had to make do other ways.

Sorry to hear that.

Yeah.

But other than that, I'm great.

It's not like it's not great to hear from you. I mean...

I just wonder why now.

After everything that happened, I figured you didn't want anything to do

with me.

It wasn't about that.

It's just everything went downhill really fast, and I was just kind of

lost.

Yeah, but why now? I heard from some guys that you might be running some

action up here.

Some action?

Is that true?

These guys, you meet them making money these other ways you're talking about?

Jim, I'm a cop.

You're right.

This was a mistake.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hey.

I didn't say no.

And you're gonna pay me every penny I'm owed.

Or the police might suddenly find out that you were in on that robbery, along

with young Anna.

You're blackmailing me?

Add on the homicide charges for the body in the truck, seeing as the death

occurred in the commission of a felony, and neither of you will ever see the

outside world again.

What's to stop me from driving to the station right now and telling them

everything you just told me?

Yeah, you could, but good luck getting them to believe you.

You know, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Does it, Laura?

I read your files.

All those prison visits to your ex.

You ready to do that one all over again?

Just with your daughter this time? No!

Stop. Stop. Fine.

I will pay you whatever you want.

I thought you might.

It's not like I have a million dollars just lying around.

Well, you'll pay me in installments.

Every week.

And if you miss a payment, Laura, there will be consequences.

See you next week.

Mom? In the kitchen.

So? Um, it's done.

I returned the money, and it's being returned to the bank.

What's gonna happen to me?

Nothing.

Nothing? No consequences? That doesn't make any sense. Anna, I told you I would

take care of it, so I did.

Okay?

Okay.

What's happening with you?

Um, nothing.

Bull.

Usually you keep me entertained.

But you've been so quiet, I'm about to fall asleep sitting up.

What's wrong?

I'm not gonna lie, that is a bad situation.

But you've got a good kid.

You've got a good mom.

And you're both just trying to make something wrong right.

You need to take care of yourself with this detective.

Blackmailers don't go away easy.

Laura, you okay? Sorry, I thought it might be Anna.

We regret you are denied for the loan.

Hi, yes, I'd like to inquire about withdrawing money early from my IRA.

Yes, I am aware that there is a penalty.

How long does it take?

Three or four weeks.

I don't have three or four weeks for this process.

Yes, I have already applied for a personal loan. Thank you.

Okay, fine.

I don't have it yet.

Period. Working on it. Period.

Need more time.

Hey. Hey.

I just wanted to say that I'm really sorry about the other night.

Yeah, don't worry about it, okay?

No.

I've been under a lot of stress lately.

All of it my doing.

But that doesn't excuse the way I treated you. I should have been more

honest with you about school.

And it was selfish.

I've been really selfish lately, and it's not fair to you.

You're always there for me.

And even if I do something so incredibly stupid, you still try to do whatever you

can to make sure I'm always helped and protected.

So, I just wanted to say thank you, and I'm sorry.

It's okay, you know, and I actually think it's awesome that you got into

Westbridge. That's, like, really hard to do.

I mean, yeah, I'm still a little bummed, but I'm also really stoked for you.

Thanks. Are we good?

I'm good.

But what about us? You know, with you going... I don't know what's going to

happen, Max.

But let's not try to decide that right now.

I just kind of want things to go back to the way they were. With me being, like,

nicer and more considerate, of course.

Yeah, I'd like that.

Good morning,

Calvin.

Calvin?

Hey, Calvin.

Calvin.

Hey, are you okay?

Calvin, wake up.

Calvin, Calvin, wake up.

Oh, my God.

They're on their way.

Calvin, stay with me. Stay with me. They're on their way.

Crash part. Step.

Laura, would you mind joining us? I'm still dealing with the Calvin situation.

Can it wait?

Miss Kingman, I'm Detective Wilkes. How are you today?

Heard about the code blue?

Everything okay?

You know, we hear about incidents like this all the time.

Caretakers harming.

even killing their patients for money.

Insurance fraud.

What? No, like I said, we've had no reports of anything like that happening

here. Not yet, you mean.

Laura, your husband went to prison for fraud some years ago.

Didn't he?

Fraud? No, that is not how it went. Mr.

Adamo, something about that tells me that's news to you.

Laura, did you not disclose that information to your employer?

It was my ex-husband, and I had nothing to do with it. Seems like important.

considering you have such intimate access to a vulnerable population.

And did you really not know?

He didn't tell you where the money was coming from?

Sorry.

What exactly are you accusing her of?

Just covering every lead that we have. I see someone with a connection to fraud.

Hey, maybe where there's smoke, there's fire.

Maybe not.

Well, I think I have everything that I need.

Thank you for your time.

You all have a nice day.

I'm so sorry.

For what?

What? Sorry for what?

Um... Just that he's not doing well.

Laura, you've always been a good employee, okay? But you have to help me

understand what's going on here.

Look, a long time ago, like more than ten years, my

husband got involved with an investment firm that was actually a Ponzi scheme.

Or it started out legit, but it turned out to be a Ponzi scheme. Either way,

Aaron was right at the center of it.

And he and a few others went to prison.

We lost everything.

But I divorced him.

And ever since, I have been trying to scrape together some semblance of life

for me and Anna.

That's horrible.

And the most important thing, Dimitri, is that I had no idea.

what he was doing he was lying to me and as soon as i found out i was gone and

the fbi cleared me and the sec cleared me and i've done everything in my power

to put that awful past behind me laura i believe you and i'm

sorry you went through that i know who you are and so do the residents

But even the implications of something improper could have serious consequences

and impact.

Dimitri, you know that the residents of this facility mean everything to me. I

would never do anything to harm them.

And I want to believe that.

But given everything that's happened today, I want you to go home.

I'm going to need to think about this.

I have the money for you.

Here. Hold on there.

Get in.

This is everything I have.

My entire life savings.

Good.

Good. Now you're only a week behind.

What? No.

You were late with that payment, so I'm doubling it as a penalty.

That's not how this works. I decide how this works.

I set the terms.

I'm changing them. But I don't have any more money. That is everything I have.

That's my problem.

I am so tired of weak men trying to push me around.

Look, I'm sorry my daughter got between you and your big score.

The second your partner got shot, that money was gone.

And that's not on her, and that's not on me.

We'll just have to see how hard this weak man can push.

Maybe your daughter or your friends need to find out.

Get out of my car.

Is everything okay?

Yeah, just a long day at work.

Is there anything I can do to help?

Nope, just...

Glad it is over.

Me too.

And I'm glad everything's starting to feel normal again.

Well, it smells good in here.

Dinner's on the stove.

I made turkey tacos. I thought maybe we could chill and watch a movie.

Let's do that.

Okay, so it was a good day. I know.

What do you think?

But you know what? I want to get more of those little kind of like a floral

thing. More? Yeah, yeah. Like a girliest.

Oh, my God!

You're sleeping with my girl? Oh, no!

Stay away from Laura.

Stop!

Please! Please! Oh, my God! She's mine!

No! Oh, my God!

Please! Oh, my God!

It's Monica.

I'll text you.

monica oh my god i'm so sorry it was just it

was so terrible he just kept hitting him over and over and who

could have done something like this

have you been seeing

somebody new lately seeing someone like dating

It's just that... This guy, he was... He was yelling that you and

Alejandro were sleeping together.

What? Monica, no.

It's just that... He just said something like, stay away from Laura.

She's mine.

I don't know.

Monica, did you get a look at this guy?

No. No. He was, uh...

He was wearing a mask and everything just happened so fast.

What are we going to do, Laura?

What are we going to do? Hey, he is going to be okay.

Detective Wilkes, please.

Thank you, officer.

Miss Kingman, how can I help you?

I'd like to file a police report.

Robbery, harassment, assault with a deadly weapon.

Sure you want to do that?

What are you going to do?

Shoot me right here in the police station?

You are not untouchable.

Far from it.

Look, I don't care what happens to me, but you hurt people that I care about.

So this ends now.

You got everything you're gonna get from me. Now's the time to walk away.

Stay the hell away from me and my family.

Calvin, I am so sorry.

Don't go blaming yourself.

Besides thinking I was gonna die, you don't have to worry about me sneaking

candy anymore.

Anna Kingman, your mother has been in an accident.

Is she okay?

We're gonna find out when we get to the hospital. I'm here to take you to the

hospital, okay? Okay.

Wait, you're the guy that's been following me. Shut up.

Give me the phone. Get in the car.

Please take me to my mom. Yeah, well, maybe we can do that as long as you

behave yourself.

Where is she?

How long did you wait?

What? How long did you wait to call 911?

When you arrived on the scene, he wasn't dead, was he? He was dead, I swear. He

wasn't dead.

You could have helped him, but you didn't.

You didn't. You were too concerned with taking that money, weren't you?

And now he's dead because of you.

That's not true. He was dead, I swear. Stop it, stop it, stop it. Shut up!

That money

was supposed to start a new life for us.

Now that future is in the moor.

I didn't... You didn't!

suffer.

They will all suffer.

You didn't care about him.

No, no, no, no, no. You just cared about what you wanted.

If he were alive, I would have helped him.

What is this place?

You're gonna stay here for a little bit.

But don't worry.

Don't you worry.

Be reunited with your mom real soon

I'd like to confess to a crime.

What's the thing about playing chicken?

The car always wins.

Oh, my God.

Oh, Anna. Oh, my God. Are you okay?

I'm fine. Did he hurt you?

May the two of you take a seat, please?

Detective Wilkes has been under internal affairs investigation for a while now.

I didn't believe it when I first heard about it, but he has been increasingly

erratic and unstable lately.

So you believe us?

I believe you.

Plus, it corroborates with the information that we have that...

The deceased individual Anna found, and him knew each other.

Yeah, it seemed like they were, like, together or something.

It was personal.

So, what happens now?

Well, he is a dangerous man.

So we need to be careful.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Can't you just arrest him?

I said I believed you. I didn't say I had any proof.

And we don't know where he is.

What? He found out that he was a suspect.

And took off.

And then came after me.

Seems like it.

Well, that didn't work.

He's running out of options.

Why doesn't he just run?

Well, maybe he will.

If he's smart.

He's desperate.

He's more likely to be erratic. And he seems to be fixated on the two of you.

So this is how the two of you are going to help me get the proof that I need to

take him down. So we'd be the bait?

No way.

I am not putting Anna in harm's way again.

That is not up to you.

Taking that money was a serious crime, a felony, in fact.

So if you don't want to cooperate, I can assure the both of you that you will

both be charged with this crime.

And there's something else, too. Either of you know Max Loomis?

That's Anna's boyfriend.

He's been hurt, Anna.

No.

I have to see him. No, Max is safe where he's at.

No one's going to get him, but... Look, the only way we're going to keep Wilkes

from doing this to anyone else is to take him down as soon as possible.

Okay?

Mom, it's okay.

We can do this.

Van, I want you to listen to me.

If anything happens, anything, I don't want you to hesitate.

I want you to run.

I'm not just gonna leave you. You run.

Okay?

Okay.

Okay.

I'm gonna call him.

Just answer it.

Hello? You were right.

I'm not untouchable.

What do you want?

I want to congratulate you.

Everything's falling apart.

You win.

Come on.

Anna told me you lost someone that you care about.

Jim. She said his name was Jim?

No.

We stick to the plan.

Can't be anywhere near there if it goes south.

You're back.

I'll be fine.

I'll pop a pill tomorrow morning.

And besides, thanks to you, I'll have the shotgun. Listen to me.

Go in there.

You get the money, you get out, and you get gone.

They'll put me in charge of the case.

I'll handle everything from there. What if they don't? I'm the lead detective of

the robbery unit.

They will.

I'll throw up some smoke and mirrors and I'll meet you in Mexico.

Look, we'll get you all fixed up.

We'll spend the rest of our lives with a margarita in one hand and a cohiba in

the other.

You put it like that, you make it sound downright easy.

Well, we always made a good team.

Back then, it's not like I didn't want to. I know.

I know.

It just wasn't the right time.

And you were right.

Yeah.

But now, it feels like a chance.

I am sorry.

And I wish I had never put Anna in a situation where she felt she had to make

the choice that she did.

But I can promise you she never would have let someone die.

I'm truly moved by your sympathies.

Feels when your plans don't work out Your daughter and you are the reason

that those plans didn't work out Listen, I have made a lot of mistakes.

Yeah. Well, I guess I've made my fair share of mistakes, too

What kind of mistakes I'm the reason he's dead

You never should have been in there alone The bank robbery?

Is that why Jim was there and not you?

It seemed like a good plan.

He does the dirty work, I do the cleanup.

How the hell was I supposed to know there'd be a fourth security guard on

shift?

And then he'd be trigger happy.

And you blame yourself?

Yeah.

I blame myself.

I really liked this house.

Take the door.

He's at home.

I'm gonna miss it.

But there's really only one way out of this now.

Goodbye, Laura.

No, Detective Wilkes.

You don't have to do this. There is another way out.

There has to be.

Detective Wilkes?

Hello?

Hello, Wilkes.

Dispatch, do we have an update?

Negative.

Repeat?

Negative. There's no one here.

No. I don't think there is a way out of this.

But... I don't really feel like going out alone.

All units suspect at large. I need additional patrols at Mount Whitney.

But when I said I'd really miss this house...

I didn't mean mine.

Mom, run!

Stop.

Shots fired, shots fired. I need all units report to 228 Mount Windy. I

repeat, shots fired.

Told you I didn't want to die alone Please

no

It's

over now one more shot and you bleed out

Nothing left but to watch you die.

But your daughter knows all about that, doesn't she?

She did not let him die.

I don't care.

Because I'll feel better knowing that somebody paid for it.

Now, I'm going to wake Anna up so she can learn good and young.

What is it? That one?

Was for Max.

This one's for my mom.

Police department!

Help, sir!

That's all the way clear.

We need help. My mom's been shot.

Over here. Yeah, I'm good.

It's okay.

Just breathe.

All right, I got you, Blevins. Don't worry. You're going home.

Okay. We got another one hit over here.

Where'd she hit at?

Right shoulder.

All right, just hold short pressure. I got to take this.

Yes, sir.

Watch your step.

Hold on, man. We got ENTs coming, okay?

Yes.

We got ENTs coming as well.

Hey, nice shot.

It's not funny.

Well, it is orange.

You know, I'm very proud of you for taking all of this in stride. It could

have been worse.

I'm not saying you getting shot was a good thing, but Levins did feel bad for

that. Well, she should.

And it helped with recommending leniency.

So I'm happy doing community service. With nothing on my record, I'll take it.

And it's not just the community service. You are being a real trooper about not

getting to go to Westbridge this fall. So I go to HRCC a couple years.

I'll get my basics out of the way and transfer.

And it doesn't hurt that Max is going, huh?

Speaking of...

Hey, Max.

Hey, Miss Gay.

How's your shoulder? It's doing great, thank you. Yeah.

You ready?

You know you don't have to do this with me.

Well, I did hide the money, so... True.

Okay, you two, get out of here.

Bye, Miss Gay.

Wait up.

I love you.

Bye.
