We're gonna get your family a new house.

Look like y'all had a good last day of school.

Yes, ma'am. - Mm-hmm. Homework?

No. - Carleigh, guess what?

What's so funny?

All right, stop all that foolishness.

Let's get in the house. You know your chores,

and they need to be done today. Laugh at that.

I didn't get to finish my news.

That's all right. You can tell me.

- But I already told you. No whining.

- Come in. - Okay.

I really wish I could take her.

We understand, Mr. Matthews.

Sometimes these things just happen.

Liberty, baby?

I have somebody here I want you to meet.

Hello, Liberty. I'm Mrs. Baker.

I'm here to take you to your new home.

I'm not going with you.

Grandpa?

Baby...

because of my condition,

the state won't let me take you.

Liberty, I'm taking you to a home

where there's kids your age,

until I can find you a permanent home.

Now?

Yes, now.

She's taking their deaths and all of this extremely well.

Yes.

She has the strength that my daughter had.

Liberty, you're really gonna like your new home.

I liked my old home.

What was that?

Nothing.

- Oh, my God! I forgot! - Forgot what?

I've gotta exchange these girls.

- What? Exchange? - Is exchange what I said?

Then exchange is what I meant.

Kids, get up. You go upstairs and pack.

Get dressed!

This just in from the Crescent House.

We have a new girl coming. That's all I know right now.

Ms. Kay says she forgot.

Get dressed! Now!

Is anybody home?

Oh, hi!

You must be Liberty!

Liberty, this is your house mother.

You can call me Mom.

Okay. Well, come in.

Um...

Sorry about that.

All right, let me introduce you to my other children.

- This is Carleigh. - How you do?

This is her adorable little brother, Kyle.

This is Haven. She's our wiz kid.

Wiz kid?

This is Michael.

- Hello, my love. Okay.

Kids. No...

All right, next we have Lailah and Daisy. They're sisters.

You aren't coming from another foster home, are you?

- Does she talk? - Yes.

She's just tired and shy, I'm sure.

Daisy, did you have something to say to Liberty?

I pledge of allegiance to the flag

of the United States of America.

And we're good.

But what about Mr. Pierce?

Who? - Mr. Pierce?

Yeah, Mr. Pierce.

He is our part-time associate.

How you guys doing? Liberty, right?

Welcome to Crescent House.

We're good?

Liberty, Ms. Kay is gonna take really good care of you, okay?

It's gonna be great. I'll take it from here.

Okay. You're taking this one with you.

Okay.

You? All right.

We're good?

Is everything okay?

You know, you can talk to me.

Come in.

Oh, Ms. Baker. Come in.

This place kind of smells stinkin' weird.

Kind of like corn chips.

This is my little assistant, Rose.

Take a seat.

Okay. I'm sure that wasn't easy.

The child has family. Living family.

Old or not, we should've kept them together,

but... what is done is done.

Listen, you have a job to do and so do I.

And while I'm here, it's my job to make sure

the children are placed in the best situation possible.

You've seen her grandparents.

A child can't live in a nursing home.

While you're here?

It sounds like you're already leaving.

I see it time and time again.

Young, hotshot lawyers like you

do your bid working for the state in family law,

only to go work for a private law firm

after a couple of years.

These cases, these kids,

they deserve more than to be your stepping stone.

You don't know anything about me, Mrs. Baker,

or my story.

I'm sorry. I've got to take this.

Reena Jeffcoat.

In 20 minutes?

Uh, yeah, I just-- I wasn't prepared for

such a fast turnaround.

No, no, no worries. I'll make it work.

Okay. Bye-bye.

Yes!

Good morning.

Excuse me.

That should do it.

- How can I help you? - Hi, I'm Mrs. Jeffcoat.

- I'm here for an interview. - Uh, yes.

Mrs. Jeffcoat here for Dr. Evans.

I'm sorry, I wasn't aware I was gonna be meet--

Is that gonna be a problem?

Well, no, I just-- - Good. Follow me.

They'll be with you shortly.

Oh-kay.

Thank you.

Do you know Diane Hyatt?

The Hyatts?

Do you?

Yes, of course.

Mrs. Hyatt was rated

Forbes West Coast Businesswoman of the Year.

Yeah. You know your stuff.

I knew you would.

We are now the attorneys of record for Diane Hyatt.

All things Diane Hyatt,

including her high-profile divorce.

Wait. The Hyatts...

Vegas's number-one power couple is getting a divorce?

We're filing the paperwork Friday

from this office.

And that is why we need you.

Look, I'm sorry.

Even with the utmost confidence in my abilities,

I'm not sure I can help you with such a high-profile case.

As you know, our office is out of Los Angeles.

And the Vegas office, it's been doing well,

but we need someone homegrown.

We need someone local who really knows the courts here.

Mrs. Hyatt insisted that we'd have someone local.

Ms. Hyatt and Mr. Hyatt have a daughter.

Her name is Hillary.

And Mr. Hyatt is going to be filing

for joint or full custody.

So we need you.

We need someone that can prove that he is an unfit dad.

Based on your file...

you can make something like that happen.

I've read your whole file.

While working as a state attorney,

you've tried over 100 family cases.

In a third of those cases,

the parent or the guardian was deemed unfit.

No, those were legitimate situations

where the child was better off in a group home

under the state's care.

Ah, well...

I-- I understand.

I'm not accusing you of anything.

All I'm saying is,

if anyone were to know someone was unfit...

it would be you.

What are you making a year?

50,000? 60,000?

Hmm. About that?

250,000 a year.

Full benefits, company car, entertainment stipend.

If everything goes well,

we are looking to make you...

a junior partner here at the Vegas office.

Wow. That's, like, a dream come true.

Seriously.

Take the day and think about it.

You don't have to let me know anything soon.

Well, but when do I need to let you know by?

I'm filing the paperwork Friday at 4:00 p.m.

So you have until then.

Let me know.

Thank you.

This would be a great opportunity for our family.

And you always said the state's office

was a stepping stone for a private sector.

I don't-- It-- it really is a no-brainer.

I just-- I don't even know why I'm asking.

Hey, we've saved and done what we said we were gonna do.

Everything is going according to plan.

Yeah. I just--

Mrs. Baker said something to me today,

and I don't know why, it just rubbed me wrong.

Mrs. Baker's been working in foster care and adoption

too long.

Can't let her pessimism affect you.

And that's the thing. She wasn't even being pessimistic.

Just, she had this sense of, like--

What is it?

Hope.

We are back to Live with Daisy, and it's me, Daisy.

We are live on location at the Crescent House

with our new roomie, Liberty.

Yes, that's her real name.

Let's go talk to her.

So, Liberty, tell people about yourself.

I think she's mute.

- Like a TV? No.

She's referring to the obsolete term of "mute,"

dealing with those who suffer from a condition

that caused them to not be able to speak.

You know who that was,

my friends. "Know-it-all" Haven.

Introducing Liberty. What's your last name?

Jackson.

Not mute, just quiet.

Wow, you've got so many hearts.

Look. They love you.

Liberty. Liberty!

Do you mind?

Oh! Liberty.

Thank goodness you're all right.

You! Take All Right, get out.

I need to utilize the facilities.

Good morning, good morning.

Where's Ms. Kay at?

Where's your guys' breakfast?

It's all right. I'll make you guys something.

'Cause you know what they say.

It's the first day of summer vacay!

We cannot have another summer like last year.

- What happened last year? - Oh, now you wanna talk?

My mama said if I wanna know something,

I have to ask.

Your mom's not here.

She made me study. Can you imagine?

All summer, studying. It was torture.

Listen, before she comes, we have--

"She" has a name.

What y'all down here whispering about, anyway?

We don't want a summer like last year. Last year--

Oh. Down here talking about me

bright and early on this summer day.

Be a shame if you couldn't enjoy it.

We do have plans today, though.

- Really? What are they? - They are most interesting.

- Tell us. - Chores!

- Ugh! Fun...

Come on.

Yeah, it's summer cleanup day.

We got somebody coming to see the house.

Hey!

Breakfast is served.

What's wrong? You guys don't like pancakes?

What's wrong?

Hey, Kyle. I'm getting ready to roll, you wanna go?

- Yes! Let's go.

How come he gets to go all the time?

Because he's little. Are you little?

- Well, no. - Then clean up.

- Okay. - I'll get you tomorrow.

No, he won't, but that was a cute moment.

- Oh, hi, Mrs. Baker. Hi.

This is Timmy, my little assistant for today.

Hi, Timmy. - Hi.

What are you reading?

It's called Weird but True.

Did you know it's physically impossible

for pigs to look up into the sky?

Because they have no neck.

I did not know that.

Did you get a chance to look at the Liberty file?

Um, I thought that file was closed.

- At least on my end. - It is.

Liberty is now at the group home.

Okay, so what's the problem?

It's just one of the girls that I picked up,

Deyja, she didn't have the best things to say

about the group home and its conditions.

Okay, Ms. Kay's is rated number one in Vegas.

So are we really gonna go off the opinion of one kid?

Well, if you would have been there,

you would have felt what I felt,

that something just isn't right.

Okay. I don't know what you want me to do about it.

I make the recommendations with the court.

You handle all the in-between 'cause you're the case worker.

I was just hoping for some support from the state's office

while I look into what's going on at 423 Crescent Street.

- What did you say?

If I'm to make some allegation of impropriety,

- it would be nice to have some-- - No, no, no, I heard that.

But the address. You said Crescent Street?

Did you not read any of the paperwork?

That's the home!

You know what, forget it. Let's go.

Oh...

Mrs. Jeffcoat.

Yeah, I'll be there in a second.

Okay.

Ms. Terry, you wanted to see me?

Oh, yes. Come on in.

So, I heard the private sector has been calling.

Yeah, but I'm not sure on what I'm gonna do yet.

But of course, when I do, I'll let you know.

You know, this isn't my first rodeo.

It happens every few years.

We get a bright shining star like you,

and some private law firm,

with money that we couldn't even afford,

comes calling.

Yeah, but it's not about the money for me.

I really did-- I do care about these kids.

I know you do, Reena.

This industry, your connection with your story

is the reason why I fought so hard

for you to be in this business.

So, what are they offering you?

Excuse me? No.

I think it's a bit inappropriate to talk about salary.

Oh, 200?

You're worth 225 or 250.

I've been offered twice as much before.

So why are you still here?

Well, some things you just can't put a price on.

Mmm.

Thank you for the coffee.

Of course. You seem stressed lately.

Yeah, I just don't know why it's so hard

for me to make my decision.

Honestly,

I'll support whatever makes you happy.

I mean, the money would be great,

but we're doing just fine with what we got, too.

I mean, who wants to vacation in Paris and Milan?

Yeah. I guess you're right.

Reena. Just checking in.

We're filing the paperwork in a few days

and I need to know where you stand.

Uh, yes. I accept.

- I-- I wanna join the team. - Perfect.

I'll send the messenger over to collect

the contract by the end of the day.

- Can't wait. - Me, too.

I don't like the new girl.

She just got here.

Why is she so quiet?

- Nothing to say? That's so weird.

So you like the weird girl now?

I don't have a reason not to like her.

I cannot live like this!

Can you pick this up before

you-know-who comes in asking what all that noise was?

- She's not coming here. - And how do you know that?

Because she's showing people the house.

What people?

So, this outdoor furniture is just like the indoor furniture.

If you love it, you can have it.

Mmm. How many bedrooms was it again?

- Three. - Ah.

Okay. When can it be available?

Um, as soon as you can pay me.

Kids, come down here now.

And if your clothes are dirty, change them.

I don't know how to say this, so I might as well just say it.

Um...

I'm closing Crescent House.

- Yes, Haven. - You're selling it, correct?

- Yes. - Are you buying a new one?

- Yes, Haven. - Great. I'll go pack my things.

She's not taking us with her.

- What? - You get two points.

She's right. You kids aren't coming with me.

Heard this before.

What happens to us?

They split us up.

Send us to different families or group homes, and that's that.

Look, you kids are nice kids.

Might even say I kind of like you.

But the money you're bringing in,

it's not cutting it.

I'm gonna sell this house. I'm going to Mexico.

I'm gonna lay on the beach. Don't worry about me.

Typical.

Watch your mouth.

Why? You're splitting us up anyway.

I just got here.

Look, sometimes they keep us all together, so...

it may not be that bad.

It's going to be okay, Liberty.

You're being really nice to her.

- So? - Why?

Someone was nice to you once, too.

You don't have to pretend to be nice to me.

We're not gonna be here much longer anyways.

You believed her, didn't you?

What? - That you can call her "Mom"?

Yeah.

Where's your mother and father?

Oh, you don't have a mother or father?

Newsflash, none of us do.

Why are you here?

They died.

Your mother and father died?

Yeah. My grandparents couldn't keep me.

So Mrs. Baker brought me here.

Now I have to leave here?

Our parents died too.

It was a long time ago, though.

And we've been living here ever since.

It's not that bad once you get used to it.

Guess I'll never find out.

- Michael, can you help me? - Anything for you, Liberty.

It's Daisy, live.

We just got some bad news here at the Crescent House.

But there's something much more exciting going on.

As soon as I find out what up, I'll tell you.

But let's watch this together.

What is it? - I don't know.

I found it earlier and I forgot about it.

- What were you doing in here? - Cleaning.

I think we should take this into our room.

Haven is right. This could be top-secret.

I'll be back.

Are you gonna open it?

- What's taking you so long? - Stop, Carleigh.

What's that?

It was written in 1999.

That was, like...

- 25 years ago. - Whoa.

That's a lot of years, guys.

- It is. Are you gonna read it?

Yeah.

"To whoever gets this..."

...I have to leave this house

because my parents said so.

I love this house and I'll never forget about it.

In school we learned about time capsules,

and they said when you make one,

a piece of you will always stay there.

I am also leaving a map of my favorite places in the city,

just in case I never get to go back to them.

Each place has a piece of me.

And maybe whoever you are will have a piece of me too.

"Happy birthday to me. Karina H."

What's that?

I wonder what it means.

- You don't know what a map is? - That's not what I mean.

What if it is like a scavenger hunt?

What's a scattenger hunt?

Uh, like an Easter egg hunt in the backyard.

Oh. We don't need a map for that.

- You think? - What if it is?

What if Karina H. is showing us something,

and at the end, we find, like, a-- a treasure or something.

That sounds dirty. No thanks.

This map has seven places highlighted.

It's not too far off.

The letter says nothing about a scavenger hunt.

But look at it.

It keeps mentioning pieces of herself.

- Pieces! Things! - She has a point.

What if the pieces of her lead us to her?

And why do we wanna see some old lady?

She loves this house. Maybe she'll come back.

And kick us out? We're already getting kicked out.

This is dumb.

Haven.

I think we should try.

- Try what? - To follow the signs.

And what if it leads to nothing?

But what if it does?

I want to try.

I don't care, but it would be amazing.

I can get another 1,000 followers from this.

Lailah, we've already lost. What else do we have to lose?

I wanna go!

Lailah?

Sure beats cleaning for the next 30 days.

I still think this is stupid.

Okay, so this is the plan...

It's summer. Ms. Kay isn't waking up before 9:00.

We need to leave before then.

Me and Car will make the snacks.

Haven, Liberty, and Daisy pack the essentials in the backpack.

Once all that is done, we need to leave quietly.

- Ahh!

Up early, I see.

We're going on a scattenger hunt.

- Scattenger? - Scavenger.

Ah, that makes more sense. Where's Ms. Kay at?

Asleep. - I figured.

Have you guys eaten breakfast already?

Yeah. - Yeah, we made it delicious.

- No, we didn't. Bro.

Well, okay, so since you guys already ate breakfast

and you haven't, Kyle, how about me and you go to,

let's say... IHOP?

We'll let the big kids handle the adventure.

That sounds like a great idea.

Aw, man. I wanted to go find the gold, too.

It's all right. We'll find our own gold, how about that?

All right, you guys be safe.

Make sure you take care of each other, all right?

Okay. - All right. See you guys.

- Bye, Kyle. All right.

This is Reena Jeffcoat,

an expert with Nevada family law.

She will be handling all of the custody aspects

of the divorce.

Tell me about yourself, Reena.

Uh, well, I grew up in Vegas.

Uh, my family home is actually not too far from here.

When I was ten, my dad got really sick.

My mom died shortly after that.

I ended up going to a group home.

But fast forward, and now I'm in family law.

I love that.

Not the stuff about your parents,

but that you're from Vegas.

You don't meet too many of us natives anymore.

Tell me about your favorite memory growing up here.

Uh, there's so many. Um...

I'd have to say the Vegas sign

was probably one of my favorite things as a kid.

Me and my dad would...

That part-- that part doesn't matter.

But I am very excited to join the case.

I like her. I like her a lot.

Dr. Evans, you sure have added

a wonderful new person to the team.

Now, Reena, in a few days,

a lot of eyes will be on you.

Is that something you're comfortable with?

Once the press gets a hold of the divorce

of one of Vegas's power couples,

everyone is going to want to know who is representing me.

Uh, yes, they have made me aware

of the eyes that are gonna be on the case,

but I'm ready for this new phase and this beginning.

It has to be here somewhere.

This is where it told us to come.

We need to find a piece of Karina H.

Yeah...

- Well, I'm gonna go look. - Yeah! Let's.

Ew.

- What are you doing? - Looking.

Whatever.

It's your girl Daisy.

We're out here, y'all, with a scavenger hunt.

We're trying to find the mysterious Karina H.

Oh, Haven thinks she found something.

Let's go see what she has to say.

Where did she find this?

Well, where would kids be?

- The playground? - Exactly.

There's no way.

If this sign is circled on the map...

then this is a clue from Karina.

So you want me to believe that that paper

has been in the same spot for, like, 25-- 25 years?

It is.

The sign's on the map?

Wow.

Wow! That-- that could be anything.

Great work, team.

We found our first clue.

Wow. This is crazy.

I'll be back. Crescent Gang out.

This could just be a coincidence,

but I think we should go to the sign first.

I agree.

Daisy, I like that.

- What? -"The Crescent Gang."

Oh. I made it up on the fly. That's our adventure name.

The Crescent Gang.

- The Crescent Gang. - The Crescent Gang.

The Crescent Gang.

I made it up, by the way.

The Crescent Gang.

The Crescent Gang.

- Two, three. Crescent Gang! Crescent Gang!

Surprise! What?

- What? You guys! Congratulations.

Ah, thank you. Here you go.

Cheers!

- There you go. - We're gonna miss you so much.

Thank you, thank you.

Okay, speech. Give us a speech.

- Speech, speech! - Come on.

We're not gonna see you for a while.

- I hate speeches. - Oh, come on.

You got this.

I just wanna say thank you to all of you for coming to work

and all of your hard work

and your friendships over the last four years.

And family court is not the easiest

or a particularly joyous field,

but coming to work with all of you

has definitely made it a whole lot easier.

Aww.

I'm definitely gonna carry all of you in my heart,

and I really am sad that I'm leaving.

Until we meet again.

Until we meet again.

All right, everyone. Please, let's go.

Oh, gosh. Come on, Mrs. Terry! Stop.

Well, this is supposed to be a happy occasion.

Can I at least get a "congratulations"?

Congratulations.

Look, I'm gonna pass down

all the information about the group home

and have my replacement handle it, okay?

Whatever helps you sleep at night.

What's your problem?

What is so bad about me trying to live my life?

I'm sorry I don't wanna be stuck here for 40 years like you.

That's where our perspectives differ.

I'm not stuck here by any means.

I-- I choose to be here every day.

And that's something I can be proud of.

Compared to someone like you,

who goes wherever the wind blows,

who has no loyalty or commitment to a city

you claim to love so much.

Okay. Well, you don't know anything about me.

Or my story, because I was just like Liberty, okay?

- Parents gone,

grandparents unable to take care of me.

Ended up in a group home. And look at me.

I turned out fine.

- Did you? - Did I what?

Did you turn out fine?

Sure, you have a nice family, a nice job.

But what does that matter if this isn't working?

Congratulations on your success.

I wish you the best.

This is not real grass, y'all.

Ain't no way these place has look this good for 25 years.

You never know. We can't just give up when we found a clue.

- We didn't find a clue. Come on, guys.

There isn't anything for us to find here.

- Guys! Come on, Michael.

How do you spell "Karina"?

K-A-R-I-N-A.

H?

Guys, I think you wanna come and take a look at this.

Gosh, gosh, gosh.

What? - Bonanza General Store?

Seriously? This is really happening.

You found our next clue!

It's circled.

It's here. We're going to find her!

We need to search every inch of this place.

Check every door and every window.

We can't afford to overlook any area.

- Nothing? - Nothing.

There has to be something, right?

We had to believe at a certain point, this would end.

We lied to ourselves.

Why would this lady even wanna help us, anyways?

It was worth a try to stay together.

We don't even know you.

Where would we go to see the top of this building?

Why?

Well...

look at the circle.

It's close, but something's telling me that it's higher,

so we'll be able to see what we need to see.

We need your help! We're downtown Las Vegas.

We need to find something that's high enough

to see the top of the building.

Escalators?

Genius.

You heard her. You're a genius.

Thank you for your help. I'll be back.

Crescent Gang out!

This is too far.

We can't see the top of the building.

But it was circled.

We are looking dumber and dumber.

Where's your imagination?

- I lost it. - Do you need help finding it?

- This place is really beautiful. Yeah.

I mean, part of the beauty of being up here

is we can see all the... mountains!

We can see all the mountains!

We didn't need to see the top of the building.

We needed to see the top of the mountains.

Do you understand what she's saying?

Because I don't understand what she's saying.

Yeah, we can see the mountains from anywhere.

No, not like this.

We're higher, so we can see all around.

I think we broke her.

Red Rock.

Red Rock?

That's what this is.

We're figuring it out, y'all. We are really figuring it out.

We can't get to Red Rock alone.

- Sure can't. - I have an idea.

Carleigh, go find your brother and keep him quiet.

Hey! Been out on the town, I see.

And we have chores here.

Did you find the gold--

- Gold? Gold? - Yeah.

Kids were out looking for gold on a scavenger hunt.

Oh, so you knew this?

- Yeah. - And you didn't tell me?

- I mean, I must've forgot. - Okay.

- Chores and all. - Ah, there's still chores to do,

and I expect them to be done.

Cute little smile. Smile on upstairs.

Now, what is it y'all want me to do?

Take us to Red Rock.

- In what? Your car.

Y'all are not gonna fit in my car.

We actually can if we leave Daisy and Kyle here.

Daisy and Kyle? When did I become one of the little kids?

I'm not little. I'm six.

Mr. Pierce, we really think we're onto something.

And if we find Karina H., maybe she can help us.

Does it really mean that much to y'all?

Yes.

All right.

Let me get my keys.

Hey, easy on the car!

Do you mind?

Look for something pointing us at something

- out here in the desert. What did you say?

I said, look for something

pointing us at something out here in the desert.

What you say?

I found it!

Without my carbon dating kit, I can only assume,

but these papers both seem to be showing

an aging of 20-plus years.

- How old are you again? - Nine.

- That's it? - Yes.

And how do you know about this carbon dating

and how old they are?

Doesn't everybody know?

I don't.

You're not the wiz kid, either.

Clearly.

Let's go. Bonnie Springs is only nine miles away.

Wait, this looks closed.

25 years is a long time, guys.

I mean, things change.

And you guys know more about it than you did before,

so don't be so hard on yourselves.

But we're so close!

I told y'all!

Shut up, Carleigh. We were close.

But we were so close.

We found all the pieces of her.

- There's one more circle. - That's the house, Michael.

We already found all the stuff there.

- What?

- What happened? - What do you think?

- No gold? - No gold, buddy.

We will never know.

It's Daisy, live, with an update.

We didn't complete the scavenger hunt.

We don't even know who Karina H. is.

This is the one time I don't have anything to say.

Crescent Gang out.

- Six. - Ooh!

No-- Okay.

- Why do you do that? - Yeah.

Had y'all been home all day,

these chores would be done!

Where are the other ones?

That's my cue.

Liberty, are you okay?

The last circle.

Ugh!

- Is the coast clear? - For what?

We found something.

What are you waiting for?

What if it isn't from Karina H.?

And what if it is?

Where's your imagination?

Wait!

What?

"You found me. You found my map.

"And I led you to my--

"to my favorite place, my house.

"I told you before, I am really going to miss this place.

"And since you found this,

"nothing will make me happier than to meet a person

"who loves this house just as much as I do.

"I would love to see it again.

"Please let me know if it's okay to come visit.

"Karina Holloway, 555-8536."

We did it.! We did it!

We found Karina H. Come on, girls.

One, two, three.

Crescent Gang out.

Daisy, you asleep?

No. Haven, you asleep?

No. Liberty, you asleep?

- No, how could I sleep? I know.

Nobody gonna ask if I'm asleep?

Why? You didn't believe in Karina H.,

so why would you be excited that we found her?

Carleigh, you asleep?

- Yes.

What is all that noise in there?

Nothing.

All right, now!

You had your fun for the day.

Now, take y'all hind parts to bed!

Yes.

Tomorrow we're going to find her. I promise.

Hi, Mrs. Jeffcoat. Um, I'm here to drop off

a gift from the partners.

- Oh. - One sec.

- Here you go. Thank you.

Enjoy, and congratulations.

So you're in the big leagues now, huh?

I-- I guess so.

Good afternoon, everyone.

In today's mediation, we will attempt

to settle matters of the divorce proceeding

in private mediation

with hopes that we can settle this divorce private--

Give her everything.

Excuse me?

Diane, you can have it all.

The money, the houses, the cars, the businesses.

Just don't take away Hillary. Please!

Mr. Hyatt, this is wildly inappropriate.

Don't say anything.

I'm a good dad and you know it.

I'm not taking your daughter away.

Los Angeles is less than an hour away.

You know as well as I do that her primary home

and caregiver should be me.

Mr. Hyatt...

due to the nature of your job

and how much you travel for work,

as well as your long hours,

it just doesn't make sense for you to be

the stable primary caregiver of your daughter.

Exactly. Should she be raised by your assistant?

I've never missed a single soccer game.

I've been to every PTO meeting.

But it would require

a significant amount of restructuring

in your day-to-day life

for any court to grant you full or even 50-50 custody.

I've had enough of this. See you in court, Diane.

Well, that went well.

Great job today, Reena.

You really brought it home.

Put the pressure on 'em.

Right. Uh...

I mean, it kind of sounds like

he'd be willing to do what needed to be done

where joint custody would be fair

and also kind of makes sense, right?

Well, should we be advising Mrs. Hyatt of that?

Girl,

divorce is not about being fair.

You should get that out of your head right now.

This is about winning

and taking as much from your opponent as you can.

- Great job today. - Thanks.

Read the phone number to me again.

- 555-8536. - Thank you.

How old do you think she is now?

- Old. Yeah, like 30.

Really old.

She is actually probably closer to 35.

I'm gathering that she was about nine or ten

when she moved away from here.

25 years makes her 35.

- Old. - Old.

Is that her address right now?

- Yes. - And how do you know that's her?

I know it's her because the probability of

more than one Karina Holloway living at the same address,

moving more than five times to the same area,

and then returning to the same area is less than 1%.

What?

Don't worry about it. It's her.

Like, we can go to this address right now,

and she'll be there?

Yes.

Maybe we shouldn't do that. Not without calling first.

- Her phone number. - You really are a genius.

I know.

Hello?

- Uh, is this Karina H.? - Uh, yes.

- What? - Yeah.

You just had her on the phone.

We just wanted to make sure it was her, right?

And y'all call me dumb.

So, what do we do now?

Well, we have an address and we have a phone number.

- We go meet Karina H. - Exactly.

It's going to be across the street.

This is it.

Whoa.

This is really nice.

She definitely isn't one of us.

- Maybe she's a doctor. - Or an actress.

I wonder if she got a daughter.

- What are you doing? - No point in wasting time.

No more clothes or outfits, but--

Mr. Hyatt, you cannot be here.

I did some research on you.

You're from Vegas, just like me.

I'm a busy man,

but I make time for my daughter always.

I took her to my favorite places as a child.

Sunset Park, old convenience stores.

Honey Buns and pop.

Please.

Don't take her away from me,

the only home she's ever known.

Mr. Hyatt, you're not supposed to be here.

I'm sorry.

Hello. Can I help you?

Are you selling something?

Marry me.

Are you Karina H.?

I am. And who are you?

My name is Liberty.

This is Daisy, Michael, Carleigh, Lailah, and Haven.

Okay...

We live in your old house, on Crescent Avenue.

We found your old time capsule

in the closet of our house mother's room.

See?

And we took the map that you had,

and we went to all the places on it.

Except for the ranch. It was closed.

But then we found your last letter in the fake rock.

In this letter, you told us to find you

and invite you to the house we love just as much as you.

I got you, baby.

That's not the only reason why we came.

So there's more?

We were wondering if you could save the house.

Well, what's going on with the house?

Well, Ms. Kay, she's the woman that owns it.

And our house mother.

She's tired of taking care of us, so she sold it.

And in some days,

Child Services will come and split me and my brother up.

Okay, and what are you saying

that I'm supposed to do about that?

But you said you loved that house.

Yeah, and I was a kid.

But love doesn't go away.

You said you wanted to come back, you said--

Listen, kid, these letters you found,

I wrote when I was ten years old.

And I'm a grown woman now with my own house.

I don't know you, and I don't know how you found me,

which is slightly scary.

But bottom line is, I can't help you, kid.

Karina H., please! - Ms. Reena.

- Did you call me today? - That was me.

I'm only gonna tell you kids this once.

Don't contact me, and don't come back here.

Leave it alone, Carleigh.

This is all your fault.

What?

You got our hopes up.

You made us go searching for that woman.

You made us believe that she was actually gonna save us.

You made us look stupid.

- I-- I didn't. - You did.

What?

I believed in you because you believed in Karina H.

We followed her trails and her signs.

For nothing.

Now they're probably gonna split me and my brother up

- because of you. - What about Lailah and Daisy?

You didn't think about them.

All you were thinking about was yourself.

I didn't-- I didn't sell the house.

I'm not the reason.

Why did you even come here?

Ever since you arrived, she didn't want us anymore.

- Get out. - What?

Get out!

Liberty. Again?

Honey, if you wanna stay in the bathroom,

you should've said that.

Come on, get up.

Go on downstairs and find your friends.

I got an announcement to make.

You know I gotta get in here.

What's up? What happened?

Why's everybody just sitting here like this?

What's going on?

Oh, good, you're here. Sit down. It's for all of you.

I got great news!

We got a new buyer for the house!

Nothing. Okay. Even better news,

they want the house by the end of next week.

Next week? What am I supposed to do?

So glad you asked.

Your last day here is next Friday.

What about the kids, Kay?

If you wanna discuss this,

my office hours are between nine and five.

- It's ten. Okay.

I just didn't wanna do this in front of their faces.

No, they need to know what's going on.

They need to know what's gonna happen to them.

They're not new to this. This is not their first rodeo.

Well, I mean, it is for this one.

Yes, Miss Liberty and justice for all.

What happens to us next Friday?

Okay, so the people who dropped you off,

they're gonna come back and pick you up,

and then they're gonna drop you off somewhere that's not here.

Yeah, me and you need to talk in your office.

Okay. Is this about your pay?

I could pay through the month.

I don't wanna leave again.

Come on, Daisy. Let's start packing.

I'd rather be doing chores.

- Hey, Pa. You up? - Hey, baby girl.

I'm up.

You got my sweets?

No, they confiscated 'em at the door.

I'm sorry.

They just don't want me to be happy here, I'm telling you.

But why you look so down?

I don't know. This new job.

I saw you on the TV in that high-powered suit.

Looking sharp as ever, huh?

Yeah, I-- I don't know.

Eh?

What is it, baby girl?

I don't know. It is a lot of money.

And it is a good opportunity.

I could be a junior partner in less than a year.

The Vegas branch.

Junior partner is good.

Very.

Sounds like everything you've ever wanted.

Isn't it?

Why am I not happy?

Like, why do I feel like I didn't make the right decision?

Girl...

you didn't seem to like the last job you had either.

But maybe law isn't for you.

I'm sorry I couldn't take care of you before mom died.

No, Dad. No, it's okay.

Fought the courts like crazy to prove

I can be a fit and capable father.

Even selling the house on Crescent Street,

the one we loved so much, to pay for all the lawyers.

But as much as my mind wanted to take care of you...

my body and sickness said otherwise.

Sorry I couldn't be there for you

when you needed me to be.

You wanna hear something crazy?

A group of kids came to my door

and they said they followed our scavenger hunt,

and it led 'em all the way to my doorstep.

Can you believe that?

It's been 25 years.

- You got to be kidding. - No.

Uh-uh.

Yeah.

I remember you begging me

to take you all over Vegas to leave them clues.

- Mm-hmm. Hmm.

25 years.

Can't believe it's lasted a lifetime.

Well, Dad,

you always told me everything happens for a reason.

I hope you gave them a heck of a prize for finding you.

I got to go, Dad.

I'll be back.

- You're coming back? Yeah.

Wait!

Let me get out this bed.

Bright and early, I see.

I'm afraid I have to remove myself from the team.

Uh, Reena, let's talk about this in my office.

I'm sorry, but I don't have time. This has to happen now.

Karina, think about your future here.

Yes, and I have. And I'm making the choice

to going back to working for the state,

because there's a group of children

who need me more than you do.

Mrs. Hyatt, you have an ex-husband

who honestly loves your daughter.

And coming from a place where children are ripped from

the only home they've ever known daily...

you should consider yourself

and your daughter extremely lucky.

No one knows what tomorrow may bring,

and there's children in the system

who know that better than anybody else.

So I implore you to do the right thing

and allow your ex-husband to spend as much time

with your daughter as he wants.

I'm sorry, but I have to go.

All checked in. Where are your case, workers?

I got a flight to catch.

Finally!

Hey, what you doing here?

I came so at least these kids know

that somebody cares about 'em.

Aww, that's so cute. You wanna take them with you?

All right, here we go!

Hey, who's caseworker are you?

Mmm, funny thing, I'm nobody's.

Okay, then, who are you?

I'm the new owner of this house.

It's just like I remember it.

Remember it? - Yes, remember it.

I grew up in this house.

Oh, honey, this house ain't that old.

Cute.

- Ms. Liberty. - Ms. Karina?

Karina? Hold up. I didn't sell this house

to no Karina. I don't know what kind of game--

I bought the Smiths out.

Oh.

So how you know Liberty, hmm?

I got a visit from these children last week.

These kids? - Mm-hmm. These kids.

The gold. Gold?

What gold?

You know, when the kids showed up

to my doorstep last week, I honestly didn't even remember

what they were talking about.

It's been 25 years since I've seen that letter.

What letter? The scavenger hunt.

You know, I had to sit down with myself

and remember what it felt like to be a kid,

and I realized how rude I was to these kids

who shared that same feelings that I once did.

And I didn't know how to make it up to them.

The only thing that I could think of

was to honor their request.

Request?

Yes. The kids asked me to save the house.

Well, you may be able to save this house,

but these kids are out of here.

Mmm, right. That's another thing.

I'm an attorney, and this house is zoned

and listed as a home for youth, and I will not be changing that.

- You must be Mr. Pierce. - I am.

How would you like to run this house?

I heard that you're on the market for a new job.

I'd like that.

Well, the social workers are on the way for these kids, so--

I can assure you they're not.

And I owe each and every one of you an apology.

Especially you, Liberty.

You may have asked me to save this house,

but you've done more for me than I could have ever done for you.

And thank you for reminding me of what's important.

- So we aren't leaving? - Nope.

And you're not gonna split me and my brother up?

- Nope. - And we're not gonna move?

Nope.

We should apologize too.

To who?

- Liberty. - What happened?

We haven't been the best friends we could.

I was wrong.

This wasn't your fault. It was never your fault.

I was just afraid I was gonna lose my brother.

It's okay. I was scared too.

Don't you have a flight to catch?

Uh, yeah.

Okay. Uh, I think you can go. I think we can handle it.

Bye!
