Mom became.

I got it.

You're kidding.

No. Full scholarship.

Oh.

Oh, honey.

I am so proud of you.

Your dad would have been really

proud of you, too. You know that.

Okay, well, now all you have to do

is keep up your grades till the end

of the year and, you know,

stay out of trouble.

Great motivational speech, Mom

saying it to the girl who's never

gotten a detention.

Something tells me I'll be all

right.

Yeah, well, speaking of not getting

a detention, you get your back to

school, and I will pick you up after

tryouts, okay? Okay.

Oh, by the way, did you figure out

that cloud storage thing?

Hmm? No, I am still having a

major senior tech moment, and the

cloud is not letting me sign in.

Okay, well, just use my cloud.

I got plenty of storage.

I'll text you the password.

You're not afraid.

I'm going to snoop your secrets.

Just don't tell the FBI.

Love you. I love you, too.

Congratulations.

Thanks, Bob.

Damn it.

That's.

You okay?

Yeah. It's just that guy almost hit

me back there.

Jerk.

Did you see who it was?

Was it a student?

I didn't see He was young, and

that was a very flashy car for a

student.

Huh.

I'm Luis Clench.

Hi, I'm Frida.

Oh, I know who you are.

Frida Westword.

We're very excited that a famous

writer has moved to Sweet Meadow.

I wouldn't go that far.

But how are you liking

it here so far?

It's.

It's great.

Yeah, I thought it was going to be

really overwhelming, but everyone's

been very welcoming.

Well, except that guy.

Not so much, huh?

Louise Clench. Ah, you're the coach

of the girls volleyball team.

My daughter Jade is trying out for

your team today.

I don't want to brag, but she was

the star at her last school.

I mean, it was a small school, but

still, she was really, really good,

and I.

She's doing fantastic.

Okay, I'm just about to head back.

And why don't you join me?

I will introduce you to a bunch of

people whose names you will forget

immediately.

Okay.

Sounds good.

It all up.

Know, I

guess Swing. Stick it

well.

You like your

hair?

Yeah, I

can

feel it.

So it's just you and your mom?

Oh, yeah.

My dad died a couple of years ago.

Oh. Sorry.

I didn't mean to pry.

Oh, no, no, it's fine.

It's been kind of tough, but

my mom and I are really close now.

We talk about everything to each

other, which is cool.

Really?

Even about, like, guys and stuff.

Oh, that is so not my priority

this year.

Oh, nice bracelet, Diane.

Yeah.

Q Thanks.

Jay.

Congratulations and welcome to the

volleyball team.

Thank you.

Listen, we have a tournament coming

up, and I'm throwing you in, so you

better start practicing.

Yeah, practice makes perfect.

Except I'll be out partying.

Not so.

Yes, sir. No.

So

you see what I have to put up with

this?

I'm a terrible person.

So he's.

Thank you so much for everything.

Why don't you come over for dinner

sometime?

That would be wonderful.

Thank you.

Great.

Oh 810.

You should join us for this surprise

Saturday thing that we do, if that's

cool, Mom.

Yes, absolutely.

What's up?

It's sort of a tradition.

You'll see.

We will pick you up at seven.

I'm so proud of you.

So what's surprise.

Saturday?

Oh, it's been our tradition for

years.

Yeah. Each week one of us chooses

a special Saturday surprise activity

and could be an open air

play in the park.

Nature walk or barbecue.

Watching our favorite rom com.

It's got to be a surprise.

I mean, one time my mom and I took a

class learning how to pick locks.

That's kind of random.

Hey, it was research.

I don't think that anybody actually

does that.

Yes, they do. The character in my

book had to do a break in, so I

wanted to know exactly how it's

done.

So anyway, there's only one

rule.

It has to be cheat.

Which is why I chose this

place. And also, the chowder is

to die for. Am I right?

It was really good.

Yeah.

Mrs. Westwood.

Oh, please, Frieda.

Right.

I wanted to ask, why do

you write about crime and

that stuff?

I like to write books that could

maybe help people.

You know, by writing about

crime. I can highlight how

women can become unwitting victims

targets of crime.

You know, show them what to

look for, what the warning signs

are, so they don't make decisions

that could maybe ruin their lives.

Oh. Oh.

Thank you.

All right.

Choo choo choo choo choo.

Great.

Sorry. Were you, uh.

Did you want to say something?

No, I'm good.

Thanks, Mom.

Yeah, Thanks.

Oh, you're.

Welcome.

Okay?

I'm fine. I just lost concentration

for my.

I got it.

And.

Okay. All right. All right.

This calls for celebration party at

my place next Saturday.

Yes.

But I can go. Right, Mom?

What about surprise Saturday?

It's sort of our thing.

But maybe we can miss one week.

You know, you can have a cozy night

and keep writing your book.

I.

I don't know. I don't know how

I feel about you. Run your party.

I'm sorry.

Can you please let Mother hand here,

know that the party's going to be

totally safe.

For you to.

The party will be strictly

supervised.

Besides, what's life without a

little adventure? The girls just.

Won. Yes, they

are.

Okay, fine, fine.

Look, you're the best I know.

Are we still on for dinner tonight?

Absolutely. Great.

Do you want me to bring anything?

No. No, I've got it all

completely figured out.

Yeah.

I'll bring something.

Great.

Thanks.

Let's go.

Yeah.

Dan, did you need a ride home

tonight? I need to clear my

head. Oh, okay.

That's a really great game.

See you.

More.

I'm going to need a new outfit for

the party.

Do you think I could get my birthday

gift in advance?

We'll see.

But why not just say yes?

You know, you're going to.

Like I said, We'll see.

Louise. Hi.

As promised, here is my

contribution.

Hey.

Come in.

Dinner's almost ready.

That was great.

Frida. Thank you.

And this wine is to die

for.

Well, you have great wines in this

region.

Seriously, That tissue board.

Do you cook a lot at home?

You must.

I do. More and more now.

Yeah, I was.

Mason's getting older and

asserting her independence and her

menu preferences.

Sometimes my fried chicken is

the only way to her heart.

I hear you on that one.

Raising a teenager is just so

complicated.

You know, I thought toddlers were

tough.

Though. At least they pretend to

listen.

Right.

And what's the.

What's the story with Mason's dad,

if you don't mind me asking?

Oh,

he left us

when Mason was just a baby.

I'm sorry.

That must have been hard.

Yeah, it was tough.

Very tough.

I met another guy later,

and he was

much younger.

Scandalous.

Safe to say it was a huge mistake.

I tried to make it work, but

in the end, we had to split.

It was a decade ago, and we move

on.

What about you?

Is Jade's father still in the

picture?

Uh, actually, he

passed a couple

of years ago.

Yeah, this is. This is still also

new for me.

For us.

And to top it all off, I just found

out that my book sales

are tanking and my publisher has

dropped me.

And with no money coming in,

I could lose the

I could lose the house.

And I'm trying to protect Jade from

it all.

I feel

awful, obviously,

because we just got here and

Jade is finally,

finally settling in.

You know.

And I don't want to ruin it.

After everything.

Sorry.

I don't know why I'm unloading on

you like this. I

just gave you my whole life.

You're you're really a great

listener.

We all need someone to tell our

troubles to write.

So, Mom, that new outfit

for the party?

I said no.

Well, if I recall accurately, you

said will see.

I said no and I mean no.

And I'm busy. Please.

Fine.

I was just asking.

Kept your part of the deal.

You know.

I've done everything in.

You look really nice.

Okay. Well, have a good time.

Thanks.

I love you.

We'll

explain again.

Thank

you, guys.

Hey,

have you seen Cotton?

By the way, she seemed a little bit

stressed out after the tournament.

She's been answering my texts.

No, I don't know where she is.

She's also up soon, honey.

Make a grand entrance.

Talk of the town.

Yeah, that sounds like ten.

What's up with you?

Oh, nothing. I just

feel a little self-conscious in this

old outfit.

You look great, girl. Don't worry

about it.

What's really bothering you?

I want to be really weird lately.

Fun fact moms are always weird.

And, you know, I'm just.

I'm going to go for a walk.

I'll be right back.

Okay. Whatever.

Hey.

Hey, yourself.

Have drinks?

I'm good, thanks.

No problem.

I'm Rick, by the way.

Jade.

Jade.

A very precious stone.

It's a beautiful name for a

beautiful girl.

Wow.

And on that high note.

Have a nice life.

Hey, you can't leave yet.

I mean, we've only just started a

bond.

Sorry, but you're not my type.

What is your type?

Not you.

Maybe try a rom com lines on someone

else.

Hey, Mom.

Hey, honey.

I just. I just wanted to say

I hope you are having a really good

time.

Are you checking up on me?

No.

No, I'm not.

I'm just.

Have you met anybody new there?

Nope. Just the usual crowd.

I got to go.

Bye.

Okay.

I.

Like those.

Sleepless in Seattle is kind of the

greatest.

Part of me.

Sleepless in Seattle.

The best rom com ever.

The best rom com ever was actually.

Say anything.

That's the one where John Cusack

holds a vintage boombox thing

outside a room. Right.

You know it.

I am at one with the classics.

Oh,

Mom, it's dear.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Hi. This is free to anyone.

Please leave a message when

you get this. Can you come and pick

me up right away?

Tense dead.

Just come and get me, please.

I can run you home if you like.

No, I'm fine, thank you.

Hi. This is free to Westword.

Please leave a message.

Okay, fine.

Over there.

You.

All right.

Yeah, this is fine.

Damn their earnings.

Penny, I am so sorry it took me this

long. I lost myself.

I'll come and get you right now.

Okay?

Oh, no, no, don't bother.

I've, um.

I've got a ride home with another

Frenchman.

I'll be answered.

By.

What?

Nothing.

Thanks.

Can I see you again?

Well, thanks for the ride, but I'm

really not interested.

What do the police say?

They're treating Tan's death as a

homicide.

Oh, my gosh.

Do they have any idea who did it?

They said they can't disclose any

further information at this time,

just that they're following

every lead.

So the person who did it is still

out there.

I quote, It's a matter of

urgent investigation for the

department.

Okay.

Mom, are you okay?

Kilkenny. Everything's fine.

I'm just.

I'm just sad. About ten.

Listen, I.

I don't want you going out at night

anymore, okay?

I. I can't stop living my life.

Listen, I'm not grounding you.

Did you say grounded?

Well, I'm not ten anymore.

We need to be careful.

There is a killer out there.

We can't stay here forever, Mom.

I need to keep you safe.

Whatever it takes.

Okay?

It's final.

Okay. I guess I'll just go

back and study then.

Hi, this is free to

Westword. I was wondering if I could

speak with the bank manager, please.

And.

For.

Wait.

Wait.

Mom?

Yes, sweetheart.

I'm going to go to bed early

tonight. Okay?

I got to wrap it up.

Maybe another night.

I'm too tired.

Oh, okay.

Bye, honey. Love you.

God, I love you.

What?

You are hard to get a hold of.

What should that tell you?

I'm kind of into you.

Okay, I get it.

I get it.

You're probably a straight-A

student. That's your whole future

lined up college career.

The perfect daughter.

What's your point?

You think you're better?

Well, no.

Of course you do.

You don't know anything about me.

But you already think that I'm not

good enough for you.

Well, you're right. I don't know

anything about you.

You're just.

Someone gave me away when I needed

it.

So you owe me.

All right.

You know, they say the best way to

get to know someone is over dinner.

Well.

No.

Come on.

I'm glad you two are enjoying the

meal. If there's anything else you

need, don't hesitate to ask.

It's not a problem because

I'm the older.

Sure.

Thanks.

So I hear you're

the new girl in town.

How do you like Sweet Meadow?

I'm good.

You know, good people.

Do you think I stay?

I mean, I hope so.

I like it here.

My mom's not too interested in me

getting out of the house recently.

You know, ever since

Tannen was murdered.

How's your dad feel about that?

It's actually just my mom

and I.

My dad died a couple of years ago.

Sorry.

I guess I can sort of relate.

My parents split up when I was

young.

It was rough growing up with that.

My mom. She was kind.

Sweet how moms are

meant to be supportive.

What's your dad like?

My dad, he

had a different idea of what it

meant to be a man.

He was a hard one to please.

Nothing was ever good enough for

him.

He wanted me to be

stronger or tougher.

Alpha male type, you know.

And I could just never understand

why, even if they were different,

why couldn't they just love each

other?

And they just love me to.

How hard could that be?

Right.

What

brought?

I just happened.

We took advantage of the situation.

You're crazy.

Hi.

Hi. Mrs. Westwood or Frieda.

Jade, I know you're having dinner

with your mom tonight to celebrate

your birthday, but I was thinking

you could come over later for a

sleepover.

Oh. So down.

If that's all right, Frieda.

Come on, Mom.

Please say yes.

I'm sorry.

I'm just not all that comfortable

with her being out right now.

I hope you understand.

Fine.

See what I mean? It is maximum

security in there.

Maybe you can get time off for good

behavior.

Or I just go full on Shawshank

Redemption.

The Miss Clincher.

Do you have a moment?

It's sort of confidential.

Of course. Jade, how can I help?

So I met this boy.

But I know that my mom totally won't

approve of him.

How do you know?

Why don't you tell her?

She might surprise you.

Oh, no.

No way.

Tan dying has turned my mom into

some sort of jailer.

Now I'm not even allowed to go out.

But.

I really want to see him again.

I remember when I was a teenager.

I was always sneaking

out without my parents knowledge.

So you think I should go and see him

again?

Well, I didn't say that,

but there is the saying.

Love laughs at locksmiths.

So you think I should go for it?

Absolutely not.

Just stay safe and be sensible.

I promise.

Thank you.

And we never had this conversation.

No.

Of course not.

And not a word to my mom.

Right.

I'll keep your secret if you keep

mine.

Happy birthday to

you. Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday

to you.

What's the matter?

Oh, nothing. Nope.

It's all great.

Okay. Well, hello.

Make-A-Wish.

Make a.

Wish. Make a wish.

Did you make one?

I did.

I have got the motherlode

lined up. Top rated rom coms

of all time.

I'm actually feeling a bit ass

tonight. I think I'm going to up for

an early night.

Oh, no.

Do you need anything?

No. Just good night's sleep.

Oh, okay.

Happy birthday.

Oh!

Oh, my God.

It's gorgeous.

Nothing less than you deserve.

What is it?

Nothing.

It's my mom.

I don't think she's here.

Not like that.

Just.

She's become this sort of like

chaperon guard.

It's like she just wants me to stay

her little girl.

The whole thing is just.

It's driving me insane.

Plus.

She's got money problems

like big money

problems.

I think we're going to lose the

house.

I want to help her, but she's

shutting me out and

I feel like she's betraying

me.

You know, portraying everything that

we mean to each other.

It's.

I might have a solution.

How is this going to help with my

mom's?

Hey.

So I've set up a double date for us

at the mini golf.

They're super cute enough

anyway.

Lisa Yes.

I. You know what?

I've got to study.

You always have to study.

You can't take one night off.

You tell me if there's something

going on. Right.

Going on. Like what?

I've been watching you.

Uh huh. And what have you been

watching?

You know, secrets, Miles.

Anything. No one's looking.

You're general sense of.

I think you have a boy in your life.

And I think you're making things up.

Right.

It's my mom.

Hey, Mom.

Hey, sweetheart.

I was just thinking we missed the

last one.

So, shall we do surprise

Saturday tonight?

Oh, you know what?

I'm going to mini golf with

Mason after practice.

Oh, okay.

Another time, then?

Yeah.

I'd offer to share the recipe, but

I'm guessing that's not why you're

here.

No,

it's.

It's Jade.

I feel like she's slipping away

from me.

Teenagers will be teenagers.

You know how they are.

They need to distance themselves

from their parents to find their

own way in the world.

I know that, but

this feels different.

I think she's sneaking out at night.

I mean, I hear these noises, and I.

I go and check, and there's nothing

but I.

I think

you're worrying too much.

Why don't you just talk to her about

it?

Because I'm afraid she won't tell me

the truth.

So I found this app.

You can. You can install it on your

own phone, and it somehow

links to another person's

phone, and it tracks

them.

Track another person's phone

without their knowing.

And you want to do this to James?

Great idea.

If you never wanted to speak to

again to that spying.

I know you're invading her privacy.

So it's a bad idea.

Yes.

It's a huge breach of trust,

and you'd never get that back.

I'm really worried.

Okay.

I know. What's up? It's up.

Then find another way.

I think you're right. I think I am

completely overreacting.

I just have to my mind

these days, he's just

teenagers.

Teenagers?

Just the average Saturday night.

It is for these type of people.

I can't do this.

Sure you can.

You belong with this crowd.

You deserve everything they have.

It's not right.

These people have more money than

they know how to spend.

We need some cash to get your mom

out of a jam.

This will help make the world a

little bit better.

Look, everything

these people got.

It's insured.

I'm pretty sure they'll end up

exaggerating their claims so they

can twist as much out of the

insurance company as possible.

That's how the rich are.

Sure.

You look amazing.

Just walk in like you belong.

But

I want

to be

clear. You were doing.

Yes,

of course, I had discussed

with

her.

I was just.

We're not.

Can I help you?

Oh.

Oh, my goodness.

I'm so clumsy.

Um, I was just looking

for the washer.

Okay.

Worse things have happened.

I'll get someone to clear it up.

Down the hall on your right.

Thank you.

Did you get them?

Incredible.

Nice.

I can almost taste the money.

Fantastic job, Jade.

Really good.

Thanks.

You know, I had to ditch the date.

I think he spent a little bit too

much time studying.

And not enough time having fun.

Yeah, I'm just trying to

focus on that scholarship.

Hey, sweetheart. How was school?

Oh, same old, same old.

Anything happening?

Oh, it's just school, you know.

It's in relation

to the homicide of teenagers.

The police say they are actively

searching for a vehicle of this

type. Police are asking that anyone

who saw a similar vehicle.

Until they catch whoever did this.

I still don't want you going out

without supervision. A great,

great

promise.

Promise.

Good.

I'm trusting you on this.

And I said, Fine.

I'm just going to go shower.

Party.

Insert number of the target device.

Bring the target device close to

your own phone.

Install secret tracker on this

device.

Congratulations.

You have successfully installed

secret tracker on the target device.

You know.

Mom, you do realize it's not

Saturday, right?

I know. You just want to just spend

some time together.

Besides, I didn't feel like cooking.

The food here is way better anyways.

Actually, I.

I felt like celebrating.

I got some great news from the bank

today. A big

deposit.

I think it was a late fee from a

publisher.

Their accounting department is

having some issues.

Oh, we're

having some money problems before.

Uh, no, no,

of course not.

So, how's the book going?

It is virtually writing itself.

Great.

So I've been I've been

hanging out with Luis a little bit

more, and she's becoming a good

friend.

How are you getting on with Mason?

I'm fine.

And how is school?

It's fine.

And how are your applications going

out there?

They're okay, I guess.

Now, about your essay,

about the time Bigfoot came to Sweet

Meadow and eight.

Your mother in the middle of the

night.

I was listening, Mom.

Good for me.

And will you take me for a full.

Run of that? Supposed to mean.

Nothing.

You know what? I'm actually not

hungry anymore.

I think we should get this to go.

We. Please get this.

Thank you. Thanks.

Don't be rude.

Thank you. I'm sorry about that.

What has gotten into you?

Nothing. I'm just not hungry

anymore.

Thanks so much.

Philip. My mom's become a stranger

to me.

Here.

Maybe this will make you feel

better.

And our next score's going to be

huge.

No, I'm done.

I don't want to take any more risks.

I've already solved my mom's

problems. Enough is enough.

I don't want to keep playing her.

She's lied to you more

than once.

Yeah, but that's not the same.

Why don't we just.

Why don't we go away together?

As in running away?

Are you kidding?

Why not?

Well, what's life without a little

adventure?

You know, you, me,

the open road, No problems.

Someone reminded me recently.

You're only young once.

We'll look at you, miss.

Living her life to the fullest.

Okay, listen up.

I've got someone.

Some people are counting on me

and I can't let them down.

So I just. I need you to do this

next job for me, all right?

Can't be that serious.

What sort of world do you think

you've stepped into?

This isn't some sort of fairy tale.

This is business.

Understand?

You're doing the next job.

Okay?

And maybe we can work something out.

I don't know. It's not what I want.

Can you. Can you just drive me home?

Welcome, Justine.

The director.

Do you wish to track the target

device?

Yes or no?

Yeah, we're on track for the big

one.

I'm noting as regular rounds

goes, like a clockwork dummy.

But no, she'll be fine.

I told you.

I said she'll be fine.

And I mean it.

It's not like the others.

She'll cause us no problems.

That's a promise.

You need to concentrate, Jade.

It's showing in your game.

So I say someone's been working too

hard.

What do you mean?

You told me you were studying.

You lied to me.

I bet all this sleep deprivation is

linked to a certain boy in a fancy

car.

Why didn't you just tell me?

It's complicated.

I need to keep it a secret.

Right. So complicated and secret

that you can't even tell your mom.

I thought you said everything with

her.

I used to.

Maybe I should spell.

Don't you dare.

Why not?

What's the deal with this guy,

anyway? Is he like a drug dealer or

something?

Keep it quiet, okay?

You're going to ruin everything.

Like I care.

You're the one that's been lying.

You have to live with the consequences.

She.

Hello.

Hello, Mrs. Westwood.

This is Principal Edwards.

Hi, Principal Edwards.

Is everything okay?

Is Jade okay?

No.

Well, not exactly.

How was practice?

It's fine.

I need to talk to you.

But what I guess what I learned

today.

Surprised me.

Well, your grades are falling

through the floor. You're falling

asleep in class.

You want to tell me what's going on?

Okay. No, you do not get to play the

silent game with me, Jade.

Come on. Is it a boy?

Are you doing drugs?

Are you sneaking out at night?

Okay, you know what? You want to

play this? Whatever you're doing

right now.

I am changing the rules to this

game. Okay? You are officially

grounded, and I am taking away your

allowance.

You know, it's so little, I barely

would have noticed.

What is this?

Who gave this to you?

I don't have to tell you anything.

Excuse me.

Yes, you do.

Especially when you've been lying to

me.

Oh, like you never lie to me.

I am always honest with you, Jade.

Oh, really?

What about your writer's block?

The problems with the bank.

What about us losing the house?

I kept quiet to protect you.

And it's such a great job you did of

that. I had to solve it.

Me?

I mean,

yo.

What is this?

How did you pay for this?

That's mine. Give it.

Back. Get your hands back.

Where is this?

The money that was deposited into my

account.

That was you.

Oh, my God.

Hey, some rich

man's plaything.

I can't believe I'm hearing this.

You know me at all.

I don't know anymore.

Who is Rick Flynn?

God is your sugar daddy.

He's 90.

He is.

19.

But he can afford to buy you

expensive jewelry and live the high

life.

He is clearly doing something

illegal.

Why does everybody keep saying that?

So enlighten me.

Enlighten me.

Change.

What does he get from you?

In return.

He likes me and I like him.

Jade.

He is toxic.

You know, stop getting in my

personal space and stop suffocating

me.

Okay, Jade.

Here for us.

To leave photos.

Oh, no.

I didn't know.

Let's.

Cave.

When I see

her.

Okay. Yeah. Like a 19 year old

boy in your zero social media

presence.

Such a loving mother.

Be a real shame if I need to give

her a visit. Tell her about what

you've been doing.

What if your school principal learns

about your activities

and your dear, sweet mom.

Go to prison for stealing the

proceeds of crime?

Who are you?

What do you want?

Just remember, I'm watching you

keep playing the game.

Everything's going to be all right.

Okay?

Good.

Okay. What is going on?

I mean, really, That could threaten

me. Threaten my mom.

I'm sorry. Okay.

I let slip that you were thinking of

quitting? Okay.

Yeah.

You must have overreacted.

Huh?

Look, I told you.

I said this is about business.

It's about money.

And more money. That's the game.

You're deep in this game, and you

just. You have to play it, okay?

I don't have a choice.

Neither do you.

Learn to live with it.

Okay.

So do the next drop.

And then we go away together.

And then we go away.

Promise.

Promise.

Do you think they're going to recognize

me from the time we, you know,

dine and bashed?

Trust me, the way you look now, no

one's going to think you and that

girl were the same.

It's like.

Can I help you with something?

I.

I was looking for the bathroom.

In my office.

Have you ever heard of

Internet challenges?

I think it's the kind of thing young

people do, although the specifics

elude me.

Well, this was mine today.

Wow. I did not expect that.

Oh, good

luck with your chocolates.

Get out of here.

Oh, I done.

We're done.

Okay, Let's go tonight.

Let's go.

I have a message after

the beep.

Jade, it is your mother.

Where are you?

I have called Mason.

I have I.

Call me.

Welcome to the tracker.

Do you wish to track the target

device?

Yes or no?

Current location is Red Pine.

Sorry. This device has lost

signal. It may be out of range or

turn off.

What is this place?

Welcome to your new home.

Well, temporary.

I don't really.

You all know Mrs. Westwood, Jade's

mom. She has something important

to ask you.

Jade has run off with a boy.

And I think he might be trouble

You.

And by travel, I mean

and with the law.

Crime. Something bad.

And I am worried about her.

I'm really worried about her safety.

So I am

I am here to ask you from the bottom

of my heart if.

If you have seen her, if

you know where she is.

Have any of you heard from her?

Sorry.

Does the name Ric Flynn

mean anything to any of you?

Sorry.

I'm.

If you see her, please call that

number.

How can I give you this?

Thank you. Call the number if you

see her. Have you seen her, by any

chance?

Can I give you this?

That's my daughter. If you see her.

Could you call, please?

Thank you.

Rick, we've been here for over

a day.

I thought that you said the

restaurant was going to be our last

hole.

Yes,

but that job hasn't happened yet.

And then they've got to sell and

stuff. So

I've got to wait for the pay day.

So that's why we're here,

to wait for a cash delivery from the

people that we're running away from.

Unbelievable.

How long?

How much longer do we need to be

here, Rick?

Things aren't as simple as I may

have made out.

Meaning?

Associates are just.

They're not altogether happy about

us cutting ties and

running off into the sunset.

The problem is, you

and me, we've been successful.

And when something's been a success,

those people want it to keep on

being a success,

and they'll do anything to maintain

that success.

I said I was out and I meant it.

You said you were out, and I thought

you meant it, too.

I did.

I still do.

Okay, so what's the problem?

There are circumstances you just

don't know about.

All right, so tell me about them.

Jade, you

don't do what these people want.

You might end up in a ditch

somewhere.

Well. Well, then we need to leave.

Never mind the money. We need to get

out of here.

It'd be dead within days.

No, no, no, I'm. I'm leaving.

We need to go to the police.

You'll go to prison?

That's better than being dead.

Come on.

And I can't let you do that.

I can't do that to them.

What hole did they have over you?

Why do I have to do everything they

say?

Do they mean more to you than I do?

Of course not.

I just need to see this last job

until the end.

And then I can convince them to let

us leave.

Okay, fine.

I'll stay, but

I'm going to go to bed.

Are you?

He might have a business.

Hey, hey, hey.

Go away.

Hey,

look, I'm sorry,

okay? It's just there's just

a lot going on right now, and

sometimes I just. I mess up.

You lie to me.

I didn't lie to you, okay?

I didn't tell you the full truth.

You were so my mom.

Look, I'm only trying to protect

you, okay? That's all.

Yeah, that's exactly what she said.

Look, we're going to be here for a

while.

I actually don't have any reception

on my cell phone.

Yeah, we're.

We're in a bit of a dead zone for

cell reception.

Only the landline works.

Great.

Speak of the devil.

Yeah.

I'll be right over.

Rick, what happened?

I think.

What's going on?

What? What?

Nothing.

What are you doing?

Stop it.

Sorry. Okay.

What are you doing?

I'll be back soon.

Well, Rick.

Rick.

Oh, good. You're awake.

You've sustained a nasty blow.

Had us worried quite a bit.

Do you remember what happened?

I was attacked.

I don't.

I remember.

Her. I remember a mask.

I don't.

I remember the details.

How long you've been out for?

12 hours.

You have a serious concussion.

I have to go.

No, not such a great idea.

We'll keep you in tonight as a

precaution and then discharge you

tomorrow. Okay?

I'll just go ask the doctor if he.

Can give you something to help you

sleep.

Last known location is Pitchfork

Ranch and Red Pine Hills.

Mr. Cratchit.

Ten miles.

What's.

What do you think you're doing?

Discharging myself.

That's a bad idea.

My daughter is in danger.

I'll get the doctor to write you a

prescription for some painkillers.

It's hard.

You got it.

How.

It's.

Right.

Stop.

Stop!

Stop now.

Are you stupid?

What are you doing?

No, no, no, no.

Are you still stuck

inside of.

Stuck?

Stuck.

It's kind of tough.

There is.

Just give us a minute, okay?

Okay.

What if you call.

That a dead body?

I'm an accessory to murder now.

Do you realize that?

What were you thinking?

I know you're upset.

Upset?

I've just had a gun shoved in my

face. This isn't some robbery

where the insurance takes care of

everything. This is murder.

Supposed to be an easy job.

The owner wasn't even meant to be

there. You just showed up

out of nowhere.

But you had no choice but to have no

choice.

That's your argument.

He had no choice.

I can't believe it. You're as bad as

that stuck out there.

All right, that's enough.

You come out, me

and you.

You stay right here.

You understand?

Yeah. Yes.

Let's go.

Let's go.

What?

Why do I have to come all the way up

here to clean up your mess.

Mrs. Clench?

What? You shut it.

Get out.

Both of you.

I will stay.

It's called.

What's going on?

Hey.

Pollyanna.

You've come to the end of the line.

You can either stay on this side

and continue working for us

or you can cross the line.

And

you're. You're a monster.

Just Mason know about

this. Is she involved, too?

Of course not.

I would never put my daughter in

harm's way.

How could you do this kind of thing?

Manipulating people,

breaking the law like this.

What about participating in the

occasional robbery to help

bail out Mummy?

Kidnaping, murder.

Does that mean nothing to you?

You are

18 years old and you think you know

how the world works.

Life is far more complicated

than you could ever imagine.

I still know right from wrong.

Do you?

That man is

Dave Butcher.

When Mason's father left, he took

everything.

And we had very little to begin

with.

I worked tried

to go back to school.

At my age,

I did everything short of begging.

And then I met Butcher.

And he became my second husband.

I didn't have a lot of options.

And when we couldn't tolerate each

other any longer, I kicked him out.

When Mason turned 16,

Butcher came back.

He'd hatched a plan to use

my beautiful daughter

as a Trojan horse.

To gain access to wealthy houses

in case them.

Sound familiar?

Threaten to take my son away.

So I came up with a compromise

to recruit other girls.

As Trojan horses.

Inmates would never know anything

about it.

So. But you and I became partners.

And that's what I've been doing for

the past two years.

I didn't want anything to

happen to those girls, and I don't

want anything to happen to you.

But I would do anything.

Anything

to protect Mason and give

her the life she deserves.

If it's you or my daughter,

there's no contest.

You could have gone to the police.

So could you.

But you didn't.

Because you wanted something,

didn't you?

But you are.

Davison says

that's

how.

Just short of.

So that was a deal.

No, I know. Okay.

I have had enough of that, so

I.

Just let her go.

Hey, look, look, I can control her,

okay? I mean, she.

She won't say anything.

I mean, will you?

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

I would go to person too.

Why would I say anything?

I am this sweet slut.

This could be like the last two

girls.

I mean, they wanted out what I

do to them, and I pretend

we were you.

No.

Please, Please.

This chance.

Please.

Oh, no, no.

You're weak and you're unreliable.

Can't you?

She's different.

Oh, yeah, she different.

What are you going to do?

You're going to turn your back on

your blood, your family.

Shut up! Shut up!

No, I don't think so.

I'm sorry.

What?

Sorry.

He's sorry.

I'm sorry, too.

I'm sorry, Dad.

Can money.

Get them out of here,

please.

Hey. Hey. What are

you doing?

Good.

Like.

Full.

J.

J.

Maybe.

They use the word bestseller.

Not bad.

Oh, such high praises.

I like it.

Think it makes you look distinguished.

I was hoping for

windswept or intriguing.

I wouldn't go that far.

So I.

I've picked a place.

I want to go to college.

You have where?

UCLA.

Los Angeles.

Hey, Mom.

What's life without a little

adventure?
