All language subtitles for en_Our Mothers Secret Affair 2024

Hey!

Don't move! The police
are on their way.

Who are you?

Well. I guess I'm your sister.

Blonde: I'm telling
you for the last time,

I'm her sister!

My parents have been
lying to me for years.

Officer: Just calm down.

I need you to
explain a few things.

My mother and father,
they got into a fight,

worse than usual.

And I could hear
her screaming at him

from the bedroom

that I wasn't
really her daughter.

She was screaming her
name over and over again.

Diana. Her.

Officer: So how did you
track this woman down?

I looked... on the
adoption records.

Mom?

Blonde: That's my dad.

Just all of you stay here, OK?

What's going on?

Uh, Troy Boyle?

Yeah. How's my daughter?

Oh, she seems fine

but she's giving us
a pretty wild story.

Right.

Troy?

- Hi.
- Hi.

Oh, boy.

Francine, Kasey.

The first thing I need
you to know is I never

wanted you to find out
this way. I would never

have put either of
you through this.

I gave birth to Kasey,
and Troy was the father.

How is that even possible?

Kasey: He had an
affair with her.

My mom never forgave him for it.

Sweetheart, that's not true.

Elle and I, we were unhappy,

but we were able to work
through our problems.

Yeah, that worked out real well.

Kasey, your mom...

She's not my mother!
That's my mother!

Fran: Kasey! Calm
down, OK, please!

Oh, honey.

We agreed that Diana
would have you,

and Elle and I would
be your parents.

Diana was having some
problems of her own

at the time and she just

wasn't able to take care of you.

And Elle can't have
children of her own.

And that was always
an issue between us.

Diana: I knew if Elle had a
baby, it would make her happy

and maybe that would
save Troy's marriage.

I wanted to make amends.

And then after, I knew I
wanted a chid of my own.

So that's why I had you,
honey with your father.

It was for all
the right reasons.

Mom. I know that you
probably meant well,

but she's right.

You've been keeping this
from us since we were born.

I know.

It was a condition of
the adoption agreement.

I legally couldn't say anything.

But... we're family.

And maybe that's
what's important.

I know it doesn't
excuse anything.

I just hope you can
both forgive us.

Hey.

Yeah, I know it's late.

It went later than we thought.

And then Eddie tried to take
all the cash for himself.

No, it wasn't a problem.

Somebody should've told
him not to bring a knife

to a gunfight.

Getting another call.
See you on the next one.

Hey.

I'm glad you called.

When can I see you?

Yeah? Whatever you want,
you know that I'm in.

Just send me a picture of her
so I know her when I see her.

OK.

Mom, I don't wanna be lectured.

It was only a matter
of time before Kasey

found out the truth.

But this was the worse way
this could've happened.

You could lose your
daughter, and your husband.

Mother, I just...

Yeah, she's right, I mean

we've gotta do
something about it.

Jake, you just calm down.

Your sister needs my counsel.

Elle, come and see
me for breakfast

tomorrow morning. We'll
discuss what to do.

All right.

It's bad. This is bad.

I mean, we've
gotta do something.

This needs to be
handled delicately.

I will not have
you running around

like some loose cannon.
Do I make myself clear?

What? So I'm just
supposed to let

Diana Parker walk all over my
big sister like it's nothing?

What the hell are
we supposed to do?

You need to concern
yourself with

getting back on your feet.

Now the only reason
you are out of prison

right now is because
of the letters I sent

to the state.

Look, I'm grateful for
everything you've done

for me, Mother. But if
Diana steals Troy away

from Elle again, she might
not come back from it.

I mean, it practically
killed her before!

I am aware of that.

But while you live
under this roof,

you will mind me, Jake.

Will that be all, Gloria?

Yes, Andrew.

And thank you for
the wonderful dinner.

We'll see you tomorrow.

You're very welcome.

Come here.

You are my children,

and I would do anything for you.

I will see to your
sister's protection.

I promise.

Don't think you are excused

from your actions
tonight, young lady!

We will be having a long talk.

I can't wait.

You will not speak
to me in that voice!

You can go to hell, Mother!

So, how was Diana?

It was surreal,

and I could've
used your support.

I don't think me being
there would've helped.

Kasey wants to run
away to that woman.

She's looking for the truth.

And that gives her a right

to curse me like that?

Of course not, but we both knew

that this was gonna happen.

We should've told her
about Diana years ago.

I told you I wasn't ready.

And it festered and
we argued for months,

and this is what happened.

Wow. Thank you. Thank you.

Elle, I know you're scared, OK?

And this seems like
a big mess right now.

Troy, can you please
just tell me the truth?

Please just tell me,

do you still have
feelings for Diana?

Do you still love
her? Just tell me!

I don't think I ever loved her.

And certainly not
the way I love you.

What happened with Diana,
it was so long ago.

Mom? Did you ever
tell Dad about Kasey?

I did, but only
after he got sick.

I wanted him to know the
truth before he was gone.

I know this all happened
before I was born,

But... she's my
half-sister, my big sister.

We, we could've
grown up together!

Honestly, I was ashamed.

And I know this
sounds like excuses,

but I truly thought I
was doing the right thing

at the time giving her up.

- Mom...
- Come here.

I just need some time
to think about this.

We both do.

Thank you, Andrew.

Thank you.

Please, give us an
hour, then draw my bath.

Of course.

So where's Jake? I
thought he'd be here.

He's at the garage this morning.

If he doesn't keep his job,

his parole could be revoked.

But right now, we
need to focus on you.

Troy said he wouldn't
leave me for Diana.

And you believe that?

He cheated on you
with that woman.

You're raising her child!

Mother!

And now, Kasey's
become a teenager.

And she's rebelling, just
like you did with me.

When Kasey was little,

she used to idolize
me, remember?

Hm.

But it all went bad.

And Troy, he somehow always
seems to take her side.

This is a precarious situation.

You stand to lose way too much.

With Diana back, she could
take everything from you.

I don't think I could bear that.

I promise, I won't
let her, Elle.

I have already taken steps.

What steps?

It's better if you don't
know, at least for now.

I will protect our
family, and our future.

That is what's important.

Hey, nice shot!
You're pretty good.

Thanks. I haven't seen
you around here before.

Oh, I just moved
here for college.

I'm Lynda, with a Y.

I'm Fran, with an F. Mm.

Oh! Hm. You're a funny one.

Hey, do you feel
like some one on one?

Don: All right, the
road trip's all set up.

We're meeting seventeen
investors in Europe

and another two have
been added to Italy.

If we don't make this
150 million dollars,

we are sunk.

Look, I got a lot of
stuff going on at home

and this thing with
Diana is just...

Troy. Seriously?
You're the only guy

who can pull off these meetings.

It all hinges on
you being there.

I'm doing the best
that I can. All right?

But my marriage is on the rocks.

Yeah, well, whose fault is that?

I don't like where this
conversation is going,

so I will see you tomorrow.

Your problems are becoming
my problems, Troy.

You need to get your
head on straight.

The whole future of the
company depends on this.

I know what's at stake, Don.

Hey. It's me.

Can I see you?

No, Don. I told you
not to call me anymore.

Please respect my wishes.

So why come all the way
to Philly for school?

Ah, my mom moved here.
I go wherever she goes.

Family loyalty is
this big thing for me.

That's admirable.
- Mm.

Not everyone feels that way.

Anyways, I should
probably get going.

I have something I need
to do on the way home.

But it was nice to
meet you, Lynda,

and hope to see you again soon.

- Yeah, cool.
- OK.

Hey, uh, friend me if you want.

My user name on
Pix is Radgirl95.

Of course it is. See ya.
- Bye.

Hey! How'd you
know where I live?

Well, there's this fun
and semi-informative thing

called the World Wide Web.
Maybe you've heard of it.

I have heard of it. Let's sit.

OK.

I was kinda shocked to find out

that we live this
close to one another.

Mom teaches on the
other side of town,

and I go to school there too so

guess that's why we never met.

So that explains why
she has summers off.

What do you mean?

Uh, OK, um, might
as well tell you.

Um, a few days before
I went into your house,

I was watching you guys,
and I was just wondering

why she was home
all the time. So.

Fran: That's Peg. She's my
mom's sister, your aunt.

Wow! She's beautiful.

You'll have to meet
her sometime because,

well, technically she's
your family now too.

But anyways, I
have to get going.

Going to meet your
boyfriend or something?

No. I had a
boyfriend, Peter, but

he turned out to
be disappointing.

He hurt you?

He cheated with my best friend,

well, former best friend.

I've been finding
it kind of hard

to trust people lately.

Sorry. Hey, I'm no
stranger to disappointment.

This is to be continued.

OK. But I think that
probably depends

on our parents.

Hey! Some chance is better
than no chance, right?

Bye, Sis.

Bye.
- Bye.

Diana: I don't know what
I'll do without you, Peg.

You're a good woman, Diana.

What is it?

Troy. Seeing him again,
all those emotions.

You still in love with him?

I don't know what I feel.

It's been so many years
since we've seen each other.

It's just... It's complicated.

You'll know what to do
when the time comes.

Jake! What are you doing here?

I just wanna talk. But you
wouldn't let me in so...

What? You're gonna
call 9-1-1, really?

Relax, all right.
I come in peace.

The last time we spoke
was anything but peaceful.

You told me if I messed
with your family again,

you'd kill me.

Yeah. It was a long time ago.

K, I was a dumb kid, did
a lot of dumb things,

got myself into trouble,
but... there's something

that I learned when
I went to prison.

You know, like
there's other ways

that you can deal
with... problems.

You have come to
my house uninvited,

and I would like you to leave.

I have nothing to say to you.

Then I'll say it. My sister
is Kasey's mother, not you.

All right, you may have
given birth to that girl,

but Elle raised her.

I mean, she practically
went insane when she found

out you were pregnant
with Troy's kid.

So for her sake, and now
that I think about it,

maybe yours too.

I'm gonna ask you
nicely, respectfully.

Leave our family in peace.

I said leave.

Leave!

See you.

911. What's your emergency?

Kasey: You shouldn't drink.

It never ends well.

You're my daughter.

You don't get to
pass judgement on me.

I am not your
daughter. I never was.

Kasey, it's hard
enough without...

Without what? The truth?

You never told me I was adopted!

Kasey, will you please
just listen to me?

When you're a mom,
you always think

that there will be
time for these things.

You put it off. You
hold onto every moment,

hoping that it'll last
forever, and then,

then your little
girl's a teenager

and it just gets so complicated.

You cannot blame me for this.

Honey, I'm not blaming anyone.

I'm just trying to
tell you I'm sorry.

OK.

I'm trying to tell
you that I love you.

No.

Gloria: The police woke me up
asking questions about you.

Did you go to Diana's house?

Of course I didn't.

Do not lie to me, Jake!

She reported your
intrusion to the law.

You really scared
her, apparently.

Have you been drinking?

Oh, my God! Jake!

You have a hearing
in just over a month.

If you keep messing up,

I won't be able to
help you anymore,

and we won't be able
to help each other.

Please, tell me you understand.

Yeah. Yeah, of
course I understand.

Now, we need to get
our story straight.

Tell me everything
that happened tonight,

in detail, and no
more lying, please.

Hey, Hon. Can I come in?

Well, uh...

I just had a conversation
with your mother,

and she told me about the
fight you had last night.

Please leave me alone.

You all lied to me.

You know, I remember when
you were a little girl,

you had nightmares all the time.

You were so afraid of the dark.

I was afraid of everything.

Your mother would
come into your room

and sit up with you
all night, every night.

It was so important for her
to know that you felt safe.

I get why you're saying
all this, but it just...

Just hear me out, OK?

I know that a lot of
mothers and daughters

go to war at your age.

But you need to know
that we love you;

We've always loved
you, we always will.

You are my flesh
and blood, Kasey.

But Elle chose to be your
mother with all her heart.

And you need to know
that we will protect you

from everything that
you're afraid of.

I promise.

It's gonna be OK.

It's OK.

Elle! Hi! It's been a long time.

Yes, it has.

Uh, please, come in.

Your daughter looks lovely.

You must be very proud of her.

You should be very proud too.

I heard you've done an
amazing job with Kasey.

I don't think I've done
that much good at all.

I fear I've driven
her away from me

and now she's seeking you
out. And Troy, he's...

Elle, if you're worried
about Troy and I,

what happened between
us was a long time ago.

That's what he said.

He claims he doesn't have
any feelings for you,

but I know that can't be true.

There are all kinds of feelings,

but I would never again
try to take what is yours.

You did it before.
- I know.

I was foolish. But,
but in the end,

you got something
beautiful out of it

because of what happened.

So I'm supposed
to say thank you?

No. I'm sorry. I did not mean...

Do you have any idea
what it was like for me

when my husband told me
that you were pregnant

with his child when I
couldn't even have one?

I'm sorry.

Sorry for raising my voice.

Kasey's your daughter, not mine.

And as for everything
going on, I honestly think

she's just trying to
find a piece of herself

that was missing.

We can't blame our girls
for wanting to be sisters.

They're inheriting a
legacy that we gave them

for better or worse.

I would die for my
family, for my daughter,

and I know you would too, Elle.

But I just ask that
we remember that it's,

it's not about what
we believe is ours,

but the futures of those girls

that we would do
anything to protect.

Hi. I hope I'm not
interrupting something.

Hi, honey. Um, this is
Kasey's mother, Elle.

It's nice to meet you.

I should be going.

Uh, it was nice to meet you too.

Well, that was awkward.

Honey, I don't know what's
gonna happen with all this,

but I just want you to
know I am trying my best

to make peace.

Can we talk about it?

Mom, I don't...

Sorry. It's just Lynda.

Oh, your new basketball buddy?

Yeah.

Well, I'd love to meet
her, if that's all right.

Why don't you invite her

to our little dinner
party tonight?

Mom, why are you making peace

by inviting my new friends?

No. I, I just thought
it would be nice

for you to have her over.

OK.

Gloria: I don't know when
I went wrong with Jake.

He could've had such
a better future.

You gave him everything for
him to be great in life.

You have nothing
to feel guilty for.

I wish Harry was still alive.

Jake was so close to his dad.

And Elle was such a good girl.

She never deserved what
her husband did to her.

And I am so afraid

it's all going to blow
up in her face again.

Elle can be strong, but
a divorce will leave her

with nothing to live for.

It's not your fault.
You've been a good mother.

And good to me.

If you hadn't used
your connections

with that hospital, my
daughter might not even

be alive right now.

I believe we must always
stand by our family.

You've been with me
a long time, Andrew.

That means you're family too.

Thank you.

Hey.

I miss you.

I know we can't have
contact right now but...

Yeah. I understand.

I have good news though.

I'm in, and I know
exactly what to do.

I'm only giving
you five minutes.

Nice to see you too, Elle.

Look, we managed to get
through a whole year

without anyone
knowing what happened,

so let's please try
to keep it that way.

It was one kiss at
a cocktail party.

We were both lonely; It's
not like we had an affair.

You cyber-stalked me
for a month after that.

Yeah, well, that was then.

And that's not the problem.
Troy's the problem.

He's about to blow off
our fundraiser road trip

and destroy the company.

I need you to talk
some sense into him.

Don, I've got my
own problems. I...

If this deal doesn't happen,

all of our livelihoods
go up in smoke.

Everything ends, Elle.

And if you don't
help me fix this,

I may be forced to
do something radical.

I don't like threats.
- Yeah, well, neither do I,

but I'm gonna do what it takes.

The wheels are already in
motion so... fair warning.

Good bye, Don. Don't
ever call me again.

Peg: I'm gonna keep
you on bread duty.

Let's just add a touch
of parmesan cheese,

a little bit more,
before we serve, OK?

Hello!
- Hi.

You must be Lynda.

Guilty as charged.

Come on in.

Look who I found.

Hi.

Hi.

Diana: And that's my sister, Peg

behind all that spaghetti sauce.

Hello.

Hi, Peg.

This is, uh, actually her party.

It's kind of a going-away thing.

I'm getting on a plane
for Hawaii tomorrow.

Three weeks of
surf and sunshine.

My friend Megan
is letting me use

her timeshare condo there.

Oh, cool. I'm totally jealous.

OK, well, everyone, before
it gets cold, let's go eat.

Whoo! Mmm.

Hey.

Wanna talk?

Yeah.

Great. So, Troy, I,
uh, I talked with Don.

Oh.

He, he actually wanted
me to talk to you

about the road trip.

Look, I don't think I
should go away right now,

not when things are
so bad with Kasey.

Well, actually,
maybe some time apart

is exactly what we need.

And he seemed really worried.

Ha! Look, I could care
less what Don wants.

He made a move on you.

And I dealt with it.

But you know how
hot-headed he gets.

I don't know. I think he's
gonna do something foolish.

Like what?

Please, Troy, will you just

will you just go on the trip?

Your business
needs the investors

and it'll be good for all of us.

Just... think it over?

So, Honey, Fran tells
me you're from Austin.

Yeah.

You don't have a Texas accent.

Oh, no, neither do my parents.

It's kind of a myth
that we all sound like

chicken-fried steak. So...

Oh, the Magnolia Café
there is wonderful.

Sorry. What?

Oh, it's that, uh, famous
breakfast restaurant

near the capital?

I went there when I
visited a friend once.

I've never been.
- Oh.

And you grew up in
Austin? Interesting.

Fran: God, Peg,
give her a break.

Oh, I am just asking this
intriguing young lady

to tell us a bit
more about herself.

Well, I can tell you that
I don't like pancakes.

Could you direct me to
the nearest ladies' room?

Yes. It's just down
the hall through there.

OK.

Diana: So, Fran,
how old is Lynda?

Fran: Uh, not sure,

But she's going to college here.

Oh! I'm gonna be right back.

What are you doing in here?

Lynda: I just needed a
second away from everyone.

I get panic attacks sometimes.

Oh. Well, I hope
you're OK, honey.

It's a nice ride, huh?

Helped Diana pick
out the colour.

Yeah, it's awesome. I like cars.

Yeah.

Well, I'm sorry if we
seemed nosey earlier.

I know how stressful it can be

meeting a roomful of new people.

Yeah.

Yeah. OK.

Ah, what a shame! Diana was
never good at housekeeping.

Litter everywhere
but in the trashcan.

And that's that.

Well, thank you for all
your kind hospitality.

Any time.

Drive safe.

Yeah.

Bye.

See ya.
- Bye.

So, Peg, did I sense some
distrust of our new friend?

I haven't made up my mind yet.

She's very... interesting.

Anyway, I'd better get
going myself. So...

It's still early.

I know and I have
to be on a plane

in less than eight hours, OK?

I'll see you when
I get back. OK?

Oh!

You two, hm? Take care
of each other, OK?

OK.

All right. Love you.

I love you.
- Love you.

Bye.

Have fun.
- I will.

Bye.

Hey. I think I messed up.
The aunt saw something.

It could definitely be
a problem if she puts

two and two together
after the accident.

I'm at her place right now.

OK. Done.

Hello, Jake. Did you
pick up my prescription?

I forgot. I'm sorry.

I had a lot to do at
the garage. I'm sorry.

I know there's something
else going on with you.

Nothing's going on. I, I just...

I know you feel you must
protect your sister.

We both feel that.

But I have set things in motion

that will take
care of everything.

You need to trust me on this.

If someone's in here,

I advise you come out now.

Oh!

Agh!

You're a good woman, Peg.

You don't deserve this. You just

saw too much.

Honey, we're out of milk.

I'm gonna make a quick run
to the store before bed.

Oh, let me, please?

You only have your
learner's permit.

I have to go with you.

Come on, Mom.

Please?

OK.

But come right back.
And no hot rodding.

As If I would dream of it.

What the hell? What's
wrong with my brakes?

No.

Oh, my God!

No, no! No! No!

Fern: I feel so stupid.

Well, you were very lucky.

It could've been much worse.

Troy texted, says he
wants to bring Kasey over

in the morning.

I'd really like that.

Come here.

Kasey: We're so glad you're OK.

Fran: Yeah. They said
I was really lucky.

The car is pretty
busted, though.

Thank you both for coming.

Uh, Elle sends her best.

Oh, sweetheart. Uh, Troy,

why don't we give
the girls a minute?

Uh, would you mind
if we had a chat?

No, not at all. See ya.

Gloria: Thank goodness
nobody was killed.

Elle: Yeah, I just
feel like it's a sign.

You know, Kasey
really wants us t

o bring our families together.

I'm thinking maybe that's
not such a bad idea.

Is Jake there with you?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm here.

I was thinking
Diana's car, you think

maybe you could help fix it
as a show of our support?

I'll think about it.

Please do, Jake.

I'll talk to you tomorrow. Bye.

How are things going?

We need to step this up.

Diana: I've been thinking
a lot about the past.

I remember when we first met.

I think collided would
be more accurate.

There we were exchanging
insurance info

and my car was total led.

Ah, I was so angry.
I couldn't believe it

when a brand-new Toyota
showed up in my driveway

the next day.

I nearly killed you.

I mean, it was the
least I could do.

And who would think

we'd get along so
well after that?

When Elle caught us
together, I was so ashamed.

And then her brother showed
up making all those threats

and I just, I wrote
the whole thing off

as a mistake and then.
Suddenly I was pregnant.

I'd like to think we're
different people now but...

I don't know if we
ever stop ruminating

over certain decisions.

Do you regret what happened?

No. No, it was
good. We were good.

And maybe it's selfish,
but it just kinda seemed

like you and I made
sense at the time.

And I still feel
connected to you

but in a different
way, you know?

Me too.

Whatever happens, I could
never be the other woman

ever again, but we have
the tie that binds.

Kasey will always be
the beautiful thing

that we made together.

She will.

Kasey: So... things have
pretty much scorched earth

with my mom. I just...

I never know what to say to her.

We always seem to rub
each other the wrong way,

no matter what.

Yeah. The adults in this clan,

they kinda failed
us, didn't they?

Maybe we're supposed
to be the adults now.

And we have to figure
out this whole big mess.

I know, right?

Well, when we're
together, you and me,

this whole thing
feels a lot easier,

you know, with a big sister.

Yeah.

Troy: So it's all good now?

Well, it's been a bit
tense between Jake and I,

but he says he'll have my
car fixed in a few days,

and they even gave me a rental.

Um, I'm sorry you had
to go through all this.

How you holding up?

I just feel so responsible.

But I'll be OK. We all will.

Thank you for checking in.

You're welcome, Diana. Hope
to see you and Fran soon.

Bye, Troy.
- Bye-bye.

Hey.
- Hey.

So everything's OK?

Yes. But it's not
OK with you, is it?

Sorry. It's just...

It's just strange, you
talking to that woman.

I wanna make peace; I
really do. I just...

I know.

I can't help thinking.

Thinking what?

That this brings
Diana closer to us?

Look, I'm ashamed
for feeling this way,

but I... I can't
help it. I'm sorry.

Elle. I married you because
you see the best in people,

and that's what made you
say yes to raising Kasey.

She has all of your
best qualities,

and she's brilliant.

Ah, dammit. Uh.

Great timing, man.

Don: You haven't
been to the office

and it's battle
stations over here.

Yeah, well, I told
you I need time.

We don't have time.

The road trip's been set
up. We start in Italy.

If we don't, the
company's finished.

We lose everything.

Be on a plane to
Europe tomorrow.

I'm serious.

If you can't take
charge of your own life,

I'll take charge of it for you.

Oh, right, yeah, like you
took charge of my wife.

She told you about it, huh?

Yeah, she did, a long time ago.

But we're all adults
now, right, Don? Bye.

Peg phone greeting: Hey,
kids. I'm out saving

the world, so leave a message.

Hey, Peg. It's Diana.

It's, um, it's been a
bit of a rough time here.

I was hoping we could chat.

Uh, listen. Could you
please let me know

if you got checked
into Megan's condo OK?

I just wanna make
sure you're all right.

Hey. Listen, uh,

I just wanna say
there's no hard feelings

and I'll have your car
fixed up good as new.

No charge.

Well. Uh, thank you.

Give my best to your daughter.

I will.

Lynda: I think messing with
their car was a mistake.

No, listen. These people,
they're not stupid.

They're gonna figure
it out sooner or later.

They're gonna figure out

that we're working
together. It's...

Look, you know that I would
do anything for this but.

OK. I'll take care of it.

Mom? Are you OK?

Yeah. Yeah. I'm just, uh,

I'm a little worried that
Peg never called me back.

She sent this response
to my text but it just,

it doesn't sound like her.

There's no jokes or anything.

Huh. I tried calling
her friend from work,

the one whose condo she's using,

but she didn't pick up.

A lot of people ignore numbers

they don't recognize.

Yeah. Well, Peg left
her co-worker's address

in town. It's not that far.

Maybe I'll just drive over there

and see if she's heard anything.

I can't stop thinking
about the accident.

It should've been
me. I'm so sorry.

Don't talk like that.

It's like you said; None
of us saw that coming.

I love you, honey.

I know, Mom.

Where you going, Diana?

Unfriendly voice:
Yes? Who is it?

Uh, it's Diana Parker.

Hi. Uh, I, I tried calling
earlier a few times.

I'm Peg Bannister's sister.

Oh, I-sorry. I
didn't get your call.

I've been home sick all
day. I turned off my phone.

Ah, I don't mean to intrude.

Um, I won't bother you.
I was just wondering

if you'd heard from Peg.

No, I haven't.

Oh! In fact, I don't
think she checked in

to my timeshares,

at least that's what my
people over there said.

Anyway, I thought she
cancelled her trip.

She, she never
checked in at all?

Look, we both know Peg, OK?

She probably met
a guy and went off

on some romantic
adventure or something.

I have to admit that does
kinda sound like Peg.

Uh, anyway, thank you
so much for your time.

Good luck.

Peg: Hey, kids.

I'm out saving the world,
so leave a message.

OK, Peg. I'm officially
freaking out.

You never checked
in at the condo?

Can you please just
text me or call me

and let me know
what's happening?

Ah!

Oh, my God! Thank you!

Oh, my God! Mom, are you OK?

I'll be fine. I, I wasn't hurt.

Well, should I call someone?

Are you sure you're OK?

No. You just stay put.

I'll be home soon and
then we can chat more.

Did you see his face?
Do you know who it was?

No. It, it just
happened so fast.

Listen, I need to check
if the police have

any more questions for me, OK?

Mom?
- Yes, sweetie.

I love you.

I love you too, honey, so much.

She's fine. She's spooked.

Kasey: It's weird.

First the car; Now this.

Do they know what went
wrong with the engine?

Not yet, hopefully soon.

I need to blow off some steam.

Go shoot some hoops with Lynda.

You wanna meet us at the park?

I have some stuff to
do here right now,

but soon, OK? I wanna see you.

Yeah, me too.

OK, tough girl. Be
careful out there.

OK. Bye.

Mom! Are you OK?

Oh, yeah. I got a text from Peg.

Apparently, she stayed with
another friend out there,

so I was worried for nothing.

But are you OK?

Maybe I'm a little
in shock still.

They say when something
like that happens,

your whole life flashes
before your eyes.

And did it?

Not really.

I'm gonna go to the
park. Is that OK?

Come here first.

What is it?

This is a copy of a
lawsuit that your mother

is serving Diana with.

Did you know
anything about this?

No! What?

Yeah. She's claiming
that Diana broke

the original agreement in
the NDA and she's suing

to keep her away
from you and Kasey.

No, I can't believe this.

I never told my
mother to do this.

Well, we have to fix it
and you need to call her.

Well, I don't know
if I can fix it.

I don't know if I can stop her.

Honey, you have
to! This is nuts.

I gotta get on a plane
this afternoon with Don,

which is the absolute last thing

I wanna be doing right
now. But if I don't go,

who knows what happens
to the company.

I know. OK. I'm gonna
call her right away.

I'm sorry, Troy.
I really thought

that we were working
all of this out.

I don't know why she did this.

Hey, it's not your fault, OK?

We're gonna fix it. Come
here. We're gonna fix it.

I love you.

I love you too.

So, she got jumped? Did
she see the guy's face?

Did she give the police a
description or something?

No. He, uh, he got away clean.

Look, I'd rather not
think about it right now.

OK. Focus on me.

Concentrate on
getting the ball, OK?

OK. You're too tall.

It's not about size; It's
about style. Come on.

Lynda: Nice!

Yeah.

Uh, well, it's getting late
so I should probably go.

OK. Hey, uh, grab your stuff.

I'll give you a ride.

OK.

Oh! Um, here. I gotta
get this. It's school.

OK.

What?

Yeah, I'm with her now.

OK.

OK. Here. Sorry about that.

That place is gonna
be the death of me.

Yeah.

Gloria: Elle, listen to me.

Elle: No, mother. You do
not understand how I feel

and you need to back off!

How did you feel before
when this all happened?

Your world was shattered.
You ended up in therapy.

Don't you see? I am
protecting our family.

That's not the kind of
protection that I want,

so just stop!

I'll call you soon.

OK. Hey, I'm right here for you.

Thanks.

Kasey, there you are.
Can we talk, please?

Um, sure.

Honey, I want you to know
that your grandmother

is starting some
trouble with Diana.

What kind of trouble?

She's suing her on what
she says is my behalf,

but I'm not going along with it.

Wait. You're OK with
Diana being in our lives?

I know it's what you
and Francine want.

Mom. I've never wanted
Diana to be my mother.

I just, I just. I wanted
to know where I came from.

That's all.

Well, maybe there's a
lesson there for all of us.

Maybe Diana should
be your mother also.

She gave birth to you.

She was noble enough
to let us raise you.

That means she's a good woman.

We're so lucky to all be
together, both families.

Ah, I love you.

Um, hello?

Hey. I just got copied on
your lawsuit from Gloria.

Please tell me you're not
going along with this, Troy.

Ha. Of course not.

I talked to my lawyer about it

and he thinks the case
is flimsy at best.

I'm going to Europe for
two weeks, leaving tonight,

but I have my best
people working on it

so don't worry.
We're gonna fix this.

I wanna trust you but...

Diana, talk to me.

All of the things that
have been happening,

the car wreck, the mugging,

what if they're all connected?

You think Gloria might have
something to do with it?

Anything is possible
but, I mean,

I'm more concerned
about her son, Jake.

It could've been him that
attacked me the other night.

What do you wanna do about it?

I'm not sure. Just get in
touch when you're back, OK?

All right. Talk to you soon..

Bye.

No word from Diana.
A bit surprised.

I told you it wouldn't work.

We need action,
not legal papers.

Calm down. This is
just the beginning.

I'm making a run to
the grocery store.

Oh, good. I'll text
you if I can think

of anything else we need.

I'm taking a nap. Please,
don't do anything foolish.

Kasey: It could just
be a big coincidence.

But that sure does
look like the pearl

from Peg's necklace.

The thing is, what was
it doing in Lynda's car?

Could she have
stolen it somehow?

I mean, how long have you
really known this girl?

Not long. But maybe it's
worth looking deeper into?

What do you have in mind?

Well, for starters, we have
to keep this to ourselves.

Mom's already upset enough
and I don't wanna worry her

more until we know for sure.

But if we do find
real proof, then...

How can I help?

I'm not sure yet, but
I'll let you know.

Whatever happens,

I think I need to
check out Peg's house.

OK. Uh, I can look into
Lynda's social media

while you do that. Do you
have a last name on her?

You know what? I
never even asked.

But her Pix handle
is Radgirl-95,

so maybe that's a start.

Hello, Lynda.

Hi, Dad.

We need to talk.

Lynda: I still
remember that night

when I was seven, what
Mom tried to do to me.

I just-I can see it so clearly.

She's dead and gone.

You saved my life from her.

But I owe Gloria too for
getting me to the hospital

after all that.

You used to say,

"All those who suffer
deserve happiness."

I remember, and I also
said that a daughter's love

is a man's greatest reward.

Gloria Krauss is our reward

for having gone
through all that.

One day, we'll be a
real family, all of us.

I'll marry her, perhaps.

I feel we're growing
closer all the time.

Good.

But we must save her daughter.

Diana Parker must die so
that Elle doesn't suffer,

and that no one
can be the wiser,

not Gloria, not anyone.

How are we gonna do
it? Another mugging?

It must seem like a natural
death, a heart attack.

Understand?

Yeah.

Can I count on you?

Of course.

You took a life for me
and I'll do the same.

Good.

I won't fail you again.

I won't stop until
it's done. I promise.

Diana: I don't like
you coming home

when it's dark
outside! I would prefer

if you would just
stay home tonight.

I just wanna go to the movies.

I understand that,
but I am worried.

Too many strange things
have been happening.

So we're just supposed
to hide at home forever?

No. Look, I know I'm
being overcautious.

But could you just humour
your mother, please?

All right. I'll stay home, Mom.

Francine, I see that
look on your face.

Hm.

Elle: Hey, honey. Still awake?

Yeah. Just thinking.

What ya thinking about?

I'm not supposed to tell.
Fran told me not to.

Oh! Keeping secrets with your
little sister already, huh?

That's kinda sweet.

I didn't know you
knew Lynda Tisdale.

She's a friend of Fran's.

Small world.

Uh, what do you mean?

Checking in again, Mother?

It's late. You're still at work?

Yeah. Working on Diana's car.

There's something funny
about the engine though.

It looks like it might've
been tampered with.

You mean

someone might've caused
the accident to happen.

Maybe. Gotta get a
little more dirty

to find out for
sure. I'll be late.

This is shocking.

Please let me know what
else you find. I love you.

Love you too, Mom.

Hey. What's up? I just
got to Aunt Peg's.

Have you gone it yet?

Like have you found
anything weird?

Not yet.

What's wrong?

I just found out
that Lynda is related

to my grandmother's caretaker.

Like, that's his daughter.

How the hell did
you find that out?

My mom just told me.

I've met Andrew
lots of times but

I never knew that
was his daughter.

Anyways. But I think
it's just a coincidence,

but she gave me her last name

and I'm looking
into her right now.

She told me she moved
here with her mom.

She lied. I'm going
into the house.

Just stay on the line,
OK? I'm starting to get

a really bad feeling about this.

OK. Peg gave me a key
for emergencies so...

I guess this qualifies.

My daughter called just now.

Uh, she needs some
help at her house.

Uh, would you be OK by yourself

for an hour or two?

It's no problem.

Please, tell her hello.
It's been far too long.

Yes, it has been.

I know Lynda's had a hard time

and she's a very private
person, but I would love it

if she could meet my
granddaughter someday.

I think they would
get along well.

Yes, I do too. That
would be lovely.

I am devoted to you,
Gloria, and this family.

I hope you know that.

Yes, of course.
Thank you, Andrew.

We think you're
very special also.

Thank you.

Kasey: Find anything?

No, but I'll check
Peg's bedroom.

Honey, I'm gonna
make a little snack.

Are you hungry?

Honey?

Oh, my God.

What is it?

I just looked up Lynda in
the public data search.

Fran. She has a criminal record.

No way.

Arrested for assault, twice.

Fran?

Do you want something to eat?

Fran: I'll check the basement.

Oh, God.

Are you there?

Oh, my God!

Fran, talk to me!

I found more pearls.

They match.

Something must've
happened to Peg,

right here in this house.

Kasey, I, I have
to call you back.

Oh, thank God! Are you OK?

Where are you?

I'm fine, Mom.
I'm at Aunt Peg's.

What? Why?

Look, it's a long story,
but Kasey and I think

that Lynda might've
done something to Peg.

Lynda? Your new friend?
Why would she...

You know what, honey,
just stay there.

I'm gonna come get
you, OK? Don't move.

I'll call a ride share.

I'm gonna be back
in ten minutes.

OK. Hurry back. I love you.

I love you too, Mom.

Jake. Why are you
calling so late?

I, um, I found something
in your fuel tank.

Traces of bleach.

Bleach? What does that mean?

It means somebody has it
in for you, Diana. Look.

Has anyone been to your
house that you don't trust?

You mean besides you?

Diana, I'm sorry for all that,

I am, but this is serious.

Oh.

Oh what?

Uh, Fran just told
me something that

might tie into this. I
have to call you back.

Yeah. Yeah, OK.

There is an explanation
for all this.

Andrew, what the hell
are you talking about?

What are you even doing here?

I came to put my cards on
the table, so to speak.

I know you're like me, Jake.

You're devoted to your
sister and your mother.

You love them dearly, as do I.

So I hope you'll hear
what I have to say.

Driver, take Band
Avenue. It's faster.

Jake: So you're saying it's
been you this whole time?

Your daughter fixed the
car. She attacked Diana.

Diana's a ruiner. She'll
seduce Troy all over again.

And he'll leave Elle
and that'll destroy her.

I can't let that happen.
You can't let that happen.

So I'm supposed
to cover this up?

Let you get away with
attempted murder?

You're gonna have to see that

my way is the only way.

You gotta be out of
your mind if you think

I'm gonna go through with this.

Don't be a fool, Jake.

Is that a threat?

No. I just can't let
the truth come out.

I have my own family to protect.

After tonight, it won't matter.

What happens tonight?

Hey. You've reached
Diana Parker.

Please leave your
message. Thanks.

Diana, call me back.

There's something messed up
you need to know about now.

Just please call me back.

I'm gonna call my sister too.

Oh, my God.

Detective: The victim was
found in a shallow grave

in a wooded area near
a construction site,

meaning someone was in a hurry.

Did you get that ID for me yet?

Peggy Bannister. OK.
I'll inform the family.

Elle: Wait.

What are you saying?

Andrew's been trying
to kill Diana?

That's insane!

Listen. I know how it sounds.

You gotta trust me.

He said there's something
happening tonight.

O K, you're only a few
minutes away from the house.

You gotta get to Diana now.

I'll be there as soon as I can.

Just don't take any chances.

OK, OK. I'm leaving right now.

And I'm coming with you, Mom.

There's more you need to know.

OK.

Drive faster. Something
bad's about to happen.

I know it!

Calm down. It's gonna be OK.

Phone? Dammit.

Lynda, what are you doing?

Oh, my God!

Mom!

Don't move!

I'm gonna walk right out of here

and you're never
gonna see me again.

And don't you dare
try and follow me.

Hey! Hey! Wait. Stop.
Just give me one second.

The car went dead because
of something you did?

It was meant for me, wasn't it?

And you did
something to Peg too!

What did you do to Peg?

What did you do?

I found this in your car.

She knew too much.

You killed her?

And your mother is a monster.

She's trying to
destroy our family.

That's why she has to pay.

I know your father
made you do this,

Andrew Tisdale, but, but why?

It doesn't matter!
It's what he wants!

Stop! Lynda, I called
9-1-1. It's over, Lynda!

Screw you!

Is everyone OK?

I think we will be.

Diana: Yeah. All right!

Here we go.

So Kasey and I decided to
apply to the same college.

Troy: Kasey will
be all settled in

when you become a freshman.

Yeah, so I'll know all the
ropes when she shows up.

Good point!
- Mm-hm.

Perks of having a big sister.

Totally.

Hey, you OK?

You've just been
quiet all morning.

I-I'm sorry.

I've just been
thinking about Mother.

She's still having
a really hard time

with everything that happened.

She feels like she failed

by letting Andrew
into our lives.

But we were lucky. We still are.

That's what Peg would've said.

Elle: Diana, thank you so much.

For everything you've given me.

All right. Well, let's
cheers to us, guys.

Yes!

Cheers!

All of us!

I have a really good joke.
