00:12:29I'm Tanya, her daughter.
00:12:33Christine!
00:12:38Tanya.
00:12:48Hi, Mom.
00:12:50I missed you.
00:12:51You know you can't be here.
00:12:54Mom, we haven't talked since you left.
00:12:57I'm not supposed to be talking to you.
00:13:00I could get in real trouble, Tanya, like with judges.
00:13:03Jail trouble.
00:13:04And you're gonna get in so much trouble for running away.
00:13:07Mom, I know.
00:13:09No.
00:13:10Tanya, no.
00:13:12Look, if you pretend that you were never here, then we don't have to tell the courts.
00:13:18Okay?
00:13:19Yep.
00:13:20Hey.
00:13:21Hey.
00:13:22Hey.
00:13:23Dad.
00:13:24Hey.
00:13:25Hey!
00:13:26Hey.
00:13:28Hey!
00:13:29Hey!
00:13:32I don't know.
00:14:02Tanya, what are you doing here?
00:14:21Come on.
00:14:22Come on.
00:14:28I'm sorry.
00:14:29Please don't be mad.
00:14:30I just...
00:14:31You said your parents wouldn't be home, so I thought I'd be okay.
00:14:33Oh, of course it's okay.
00:14:35It's just no one, and I mean no one ever.
00:14:37Not my parents, the neighbors.
00:14:39No one can know you're here unless I'm the one that tells them, okay?
00:14:43They wouldn't understand, and you could get into trouble.
00:14:48Okay.
00:14:48I mean it, but as long as no one knows, yeah, you could stay here.
00:14:56That sucks things didn't work out with your mom.
00:15:07I just thought...
00:15:10Hey.
00:15:13Doesn't that just mean this is the best place for you?
00:15:18Right here with me?
00:15:21Yeah.
00:15:21Why don't you just stay here tonight?
00:15:29As long as you're quiet, my parents will never know you're here.
00:15:34It's not like anybody's gonna be out looking for you anyway.
00:15:37You're not taking me to school?
00:15:58Nope.
00:15:59You're done with that.
00:16:01You can stay here during the day with Judy.
00:16:03Be my friend.
00:16:04We can trust her.
00:16:07There she is.
00:16:09So pretty.
00:16:10Just like you.
00:16:11That's what Tom says.
00:16:13He started calling me TC because I'm totally cute.
00:16:16It'd be hard not to notice.
00:16:19He seems to think you're a great gal.
00:16:21I think he's great too.
00:16:24He's really nice.
00:16:25And he listens to me.
00:16:27And he doesn't give me detention when I skip class or when I'm smoking.
00:16:31He'll just sit there and talk to me and give me presents.
00:16:36And I don't even mind his facial hair when we kiss anymore.
00:16:40You kiss.
00:16:41Sometimes.
00:16:42Sometimes other stuff.
00:16:46I'm saving myself though.
00:16:47I'm still a virgin.
00:16:49I'm only 14.
00:16:50We're not like that.
00:16:51That's good, honey.
00:16:53But you're staying with him?
00:16:54He's like my boyfriend.
00:16:58He's the only one who wants me around.
00:17:01What about your parents?
00:17:04My foster parents couldn't tell you anything about me other than I'm a screw up.
00:17:08And I'm not allowed to see my mom.
00:17:13Not allowed?
00:17:15By the courts.
00:17:15Tom gave me the bus fare to go see her, but she turned me away.
00:17:21Just try your mom one more time, honey.
00:17:24This time, be sure to tell her exactly what you told me.
00:17:41Hi, you've reached Christine.
00:17:43Please leave a message.
00:17:44Hi, you've reached Christine.
00:17:49Please leave a message.
00:17:51Please leave a message.
00:17:57You're stupid to think she'd answer.
00:17:58No, honey, not stupid.
00:18:00You couldn't know if she'd answer.
00:18:02Lock this.
00:18:03Hi, Tom.
00:18:04Hello, ladies.
00:18:05Give us a little privacy, huh?
00:18:15Thanks.
00:18:19Oh, T.C.
00:18:21Finally.
00:18:22I get you all to myself.
00:18:27Tom, I...
00:18:27No, no, no, no.
00:18:31You won't be upset.
00:18:33Drink up.
00:18:34I...
00:18:35I don't want...
00:18:36Hey, hey.
00:18:38This will make it better.
00:18:39Whatever's got you like this, okay?
00:18:42Drink.
00:18:42Huh?
00:18:55Tom, I'm not ready for that.
00:18:57You don't get to hold out on me anymore.
00:19:01You have to do whatever I say.
00:19:03Hey, what are you doing all the way over there?
00:19:24Come here.
00:19:25Come here.
00:19:25You really were a virgin after all, huh?
00:19:39Well, you're mine now.
00:19:42Now and forever.
00:19:47Good morning.
00:19:49You staying here today?
00:19:51Sure are.
00:19:53Okay.
00:19:55We can figure out a schedule for yours and mine for the week later.
00:20:00Right.
00:20:01So Tanya's always protected.
00:20:03Okay.
00:20:10As long as you're quiet in my room,
00:20:13here with Judy,
00:20:15you'll be safe.
00:20:16What's wrong?
00:20:35Shh.
00:20:36I swear I thought I saw a neighbor in her window.
00:20:39I...
00:20:39I was, um...
00:21:03Hey, hey, hey, shh, shh, shh, game's on.
00:21:05You talk all you want to Judy's tomorrow.
00:21:09Daniel, put this right back in again.
00:21:11We're done.
00:21:11Racking you down behind the center.
00:21:13God damn it.
00:21:13You're right.
00:21:15You're right.
00:21:17Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:21:33What?
00:21:33They did?
00:21:37What did they say?
00:21:39Now just wait.
00:21:41Okay.
00:21:42Okay, that's fine.
00:21:43You just...
00:21:44You're not gonna break, are you?
00:21:47I said, are you?
00:21:49Good.
00:21:50Goodbye.
00:21:50Goodbye.
00:21:51That was Judy.
00:22:12Why?
00:22:14What's going on?
00:22:15Those child services people were triggered from you missing school, traced you to Judy's.
00:22:23It's not safe for you to go there anymore.
00:22:26Do they know about you?
00:22:29No.
00:22:31No, no, they don't have any idea about you and me.
00:22:35You're safe here.
00:22:36Here.
00:22:43You can stay here.
00:22:46You can have the whole place to yourself during the day, time to miss me.
00:22:50You just have to remember not to make any noise.
00:22:53Whenever I leave, you lock that door behind me and you don't open it unless you know for sure it's me.
00:22:58I don't know.
00:23:03Tanya, this is the only way you can be safe.
00:23:08Promise that you'll stay here with me.
00:23:11It won't be forever.
00:23:15Promise.
00:23:18I promise.
00:23:18I promise.
00:23:28You'll be good today.
00:23:52Shh.
00:23:58You'll be good.
00:24:28Runs in the family, I guess.
00:24:38What are you doing?
00:24:39I thought I told you to be quiet.
00:24:40Have you been like this all day?
00:24:42You have to go to the bathroom.
00:24:44Hold it.
00:24:45My parents are upstairs.
00:24:47They'll hear you.
00:24:47I can't.
00:24:48Not anymore.
00:24:49Do not move.
00:24:51If I hear you, I swear.
00:24:55And they live on our family.
00:24:58Here.
00:25:06All yours.
00:25:28Hey.
00:25:36I got you a present.
00:25:39Every time we make love, I want you to write it down in here.
00:25:44What?
00:25:45What kind it was, how many times, and for you, too.
00:25:52Don't leave that out.
00:25:53All right.
00:25:56Let's go.
00:25:57Come with me.
00:25:58I can't leave.
00:26:10Why do you always seem to disappear when it's my soul that I want to watch?
00:26:14You can go while I shower, but don't flush.
00:26:23Can I shower?
00:26:25It's going to take too long, but I'll bring you back down later tonight when it's safe.
00:26:29All right.
00:26:59You did really good, not talking downstairs, T.C.
00:27:07But you gotta remember, no making any noise up here.
00:27:12My parents find out you'll have to leave, but you got no place to go.
00:27:18I mean, they're not gonna waste another foster family on you.
00:27:29I can only protect you if you stay here, and you stay quiet.
00:27:34You'll be like a princess in a castle tower.
00:27:38You only open the door for me.

00:29:40If he could even have a pop-up, he'd push her under the third.
00:29:46Rez looking to find a home just left the center from the next home.
00:29:50Eat up. Don't get too skinny.
00:29:5315 games by zero. Coming up on two years of the team now.
00:29:56Wind up, here's the pitch. Fastball misses. Just goes low.
00:29:59Count his team on home. Daniels hedging off the face.
00:30:14Hello.
00:30:16Yeah.
00:30:20Yeah, I... I don't know what to tell you. I don't even know your daughter.
00:30:26Uh-huh.
00:30:27Yeah, I'm sorry. Okay. Bye-bye.
00:30:42It's your mom.
00:30:43You placed a toll call to me a while back. It showed up on her bill.
00:30:51Does she think I'm here?
00:30:53She didn't even ask about you.
00:31:05She only called because she was upset about the money.
00:31:08She didn't ask about me. At all.
00:31:19She doesn't give a damn what happened to you.
00:31:21She doesn't give a damn what happened to you.
00:31:22She doesn't give a damn what happened to you.
00:31:30What happened to you?
00:32:31Have you got everything?
00:32:49It's you who forgets things.
00:32:53Oh, is that so? That's not what I remember.
00:32:56Come on, Flora.
00:32:58You'd forget your head if it wasn't attached.
00:33:13What did I tell you?
00:33:15I don't, Danny.
00:33:16Yeah.
00:33:21That's good.
00:33:23What do you mean?
00:33:24That's good.
00:33:25I don't know.
00:33:32Quiet.
00:33:32Let's go silent.
00:33:45Come on.
00:33:49Come on.
00:33:53Do not move.
00:33:55Do not make a sound.
00:33:56Oh, good evening, Lieutenant.
00:34:06Hey there.
00:34:07Just need a moment of your time, sir.
00:34:08Sure.
00:34:09We're looking for a girl.
00:34:10Tanya Nicole Cash.
00:34:11She's been missing for about nine months now.
00:34:13Do you know anything about her disappearance?
00:34:15Honestly, I don't really know anything about her.
00:34:18Do you think I could take a quick look around inside?
00:34:20I look after my elderly parents, and they're already upstairs asleep.
00:34:24And it'd be terrible to wake them up with all this nonsense, you know?
00:34:28Yeah, no worries.
00:34:29You have a good night.
00:34:31You too.
00:34:41Dumb cop.
00:34:44Sorry about that, pretty kitty.
00:34:46But you're safe now.
00:34:48A cop wouldn't come here for no reason.
00:34:52That was just some old bitty in the neighborhood being nosy.
00:34:58You don't have anything to worry about.
00:35:04Come on.
00:35:28You don't have time to worry about her.
00:35:30Hey.
00:35:58Hey.
00:36:08What's that?
00:36:10I'm really grateful to you for taking me in.
00:36:13And I don't know where I go, but I can't do this anymore.
00:36:18If you ever leave me, I will kill you.
00:36:28I love you.
00:36:34I love you.
00:36:38Oh, my God.
00:37:08Hey, Kitty.
00:37:35Thought I ought to get something sweet for my girl.
00:37:38Sweet as you are, soon you're going to be smelling sweet, too.
00:37:53Your parents are at a church meeting?
00:37:54Leave in a few minutes. I'll run your bath for you as soon as they do.
00:37:59I know how much bath time means to you.
00:38:03And you know I love to see you sitting pretty.
00:38:05Hey.
00:38:14So I was thinking, maybe some nights I could sneak out to the back porch?
00:38:20You know you can't, T.C.
00:38:22But hey, I promise I'm going to get us a place of our own one day.
00:38:34It won't be like this forever.
00:38:35It won't be like this forever.
00:38:36It won't be like this forever.
00:38:37It won't be like this forever.
00:38:38Now, when we get back from church, you're going to have to hide out in the closet until I come with you out.
00:39:06Why?
00:39:11Well, it's Christmas Eve.
00:39:14We leave our doors open so everyone can come in and grab their presents.
00:39:17It's tradition.
00:39:18And since you're just my present, obviously no one else can see you.
00:39:28So you just hang out in there.
00:39:32But, uh...
00:39:33You want to ruin my family's tradition?
00:39:36No, I...
00:39:36What if they start asking questions?
00:39:38If you want us to get found, I'll get both of us in a lot of trouble.
00:39:41Don't be stupid.
00:39:41I'm sorry.
00:39:44That's better.
00:39:46No, I love you.
00:39:48I'm sorry.
00:39:49I love you.
00:39:52I don't know.
00:40:05I won't know.

00:46:20Go, go, go, go, go, go.
00:46:44Was that about?
00:46:51I think Judy's just being a woman thought you ought to come talk it out.
00:46:56Talk what out?
00:46:58She just wanted to know if I was still with you.
00:47:01I said you were long gone.
00:47:14I said you were long gone.
00:47:44I was thinking maybe you could sneak me out into the porch some nights.
00:47:57Daniel.
00:47:58It's just it can get so hot up here and it'd be really nice to feel the breeze.
00:48:07You are 18 now.
00:48:10Those clothes.
00:48:14Maybe you should go shopping.
00:48:21Now this Sunday my parents are going to the early mass so they can attend the seniors meetup afterward.
00:48:28That means you're going to have at least two and a half hours.
00:48:31You will be back in this yard by 1 p.m. at the latest.
00:48:34You go through the backyard, cross through the alley onto Evans.
00:48:40Where is that?
00:48:43You really are only good for being pretty, aren't you?
00:48:46That's what the map is for.
00:48:49Now at Evans the bus stop is on your right.
00:48:50The bus you want to be on runs at 1108.
00:48:53So hurry, but do not run.
00:48:56Now you take the bus one stop.
00:48:58One stop?
00:49:00Couldn't I just walk?
00:49:03No one can know you're from here, idiot.
00:49:06Now you get off the bus and you cross through the parking lot on your left.
00:49:11The store is there under the big white church.
00:49:14Do you understand?
00:49:18Yes, I understand.
00:49:21Now.
00:49:23Now I know you're not smart enough to do this on your own, Tanya.
00:49:27If you tell anybody who you are, if you are even one minute late.
00:49:32If I find you, I'll kill you.
00:49:33I'll kill you.
00:50:03Are you all right, dear?
00:50:31I'll kill you.
00:50:32I'll kill you.
00:50:32I'll kill you.
00:51:32We'll figure it out then.
00:51:36Your mom didn't come with you?
00:51:42Want to try a new style, maybe?
00:51:46Let's see if we can find something you like.
00:51:47It was $39.11 with tax.
00:52:01There's the change.
00:52:02Your old clothes aren't here.
00:52:04Something on me.
00:52:07You're welcome.
00:52:08You look great.
00:52:09Ah, that fine-looking man is my husband, Tony.
00:52:14He runs a little grocery down the way, and he likes to come bother me when he doesn't have any customers.
00:52:20I'm not allowed to miss my wife.
00:52:22Of course you are.
00:52:23Oh, beautiful.
00:52:23If you really want to see what this street has to offer, you just come on over to Tony's.
00:52:29I can't, Noah.
00:52:31Is she okay?
00:52:38I don't know.
00:52:51Hey.
00:52:51You did great, T.C.
00:53:02Exactly like I said.
00:53:04Did you spend all my money?
00:53:10Oh.
00:53:11Really good.
00:53:13Conscientious with my money, followed my instructions.
00:53:17Maybe we make this a thing.
00:53:19A thing?
00:53:21Looks like you can handle going out every once in a while.
00:53:24As long as you keep being good.
00:53:27I will.
00:53:28I'll be good.
00:53:30Well, I know you will.
00:53:32And I promise I'll like your new clothes just as much as you do.
00:53:37Now let's get them off you.
00:53:46I'll be good.
00:54:16I'll be good.
00:54:46I'll be good.
00:55:16It's by the church.
00:55:17It's the same bus, same instruction, same rules.
00:55:22Get yourself something sweet.
00:55:26For me, too.
00:55:27All right, let's go.
00:55:33Let's go.
00:55:34Let's go.
00:55:35Let's go.
00:55:36Let's go.
00:55:36Let's go.
00:55:38Hey there, you looking for something in particular?
00:56:08You don't have to help me, I'm sorry.
00:56:10Ah, hey, nothing to apologize about.
00:56:13That's what I'm here for.
00:56:34I see you're a lady of excellent taste.
00:56:37No, no, I mean it.
00:56:44I sometimes sneak these home myself.
00:56:49Oh, was it, was it the hat?
00:56:53It's the orange, right?
00:56:58My wife says I look good in it.
00:57:00It's nice.
00:57:02Oh, have a good day.
00:57:06Oh, have a good day.
00:57:17Come again soon.
00:57:19Cheers.
00:57:22Cheers.
00:57:26Cheers.
00:57:37Cheers.
00:57:38I don't know.
00:58:08Is it time to go already?
00:58:20No. No, you're not going out today. Shopping trip's canceled.
00:58:25Did I do something?
00:58:26Not everything is about you, dummy.
00:58:29Mom, can you come down here, please?
00:58:31I gotta go.
00:58:38Okay, Mom, what did the doctor say?
00:59:01Your father is on the decline, they said.
00:59:04Well, Tom, I hope his coughing could get some medicine and, you know, fine.
00:59:13I'll be fine.
00:59:14I'll be fine, Lauren.
00:59:15It's the third Thursday of the month.
00:59:20I know.
00:59:22I understand why I haven't been allowed out. I understand.
00:59:26Dad's too sick to go to meetings anymore.
00:59:28They're only going to be leaving the house together to go to doctor's appointments from now on.
00:59:32Maybe I can buy you some time then.
00:59:34But there are no more shopping trips, okay? Doctors are expensive.
00:59:37I understand, but I...
00:59:41Hey.
00:59:44This isn't going to be forever, I promise.
00:59:46I'm going to talk to the lawyer and we're going to get a place.
00:59:48You've been saying that for eight years.
00:59:59Tanya?
00:59:59Tanya?
01:00:03What?
01:00:05Will you marry me?
01:00:13Yes.
01:00:22Hello, totally cute, pretty, pretty kitty.
01:00:25Why is she kissing me?
01:00:27I said drink.
01:00:32This one has a lot of good in it.
01:00:34My friends are so jealous.
01:00:51We are making great work of it, TC.
01:00:57Huh?
01:01:21Where do you think you're going?
01:01:25Nowhere.
01:01:26Pretty ladies for my pretty lady.
01:01:43Pick something out of there, I'll get it for you like I always do.
01:01:46I don't want this.
01:01:47What?
01:01:48Your dad's just getting sicker.
01:01:50They never leave the house anymore.
01:01:52Can't they know about me now?
01:01:53You promised it wouldn't be like this forever.
01:01:56Can't they know about you?
01:02:07Mom could use a helper around the house.
01:02:09We'll call you Nicky.
01:02:15It'll be just like your shopping trips, only bigger.
01:02:19You're going to have to do exactly what I say, but once you do, you can live in the house
01:02:22and out in the world as my girlfriend, Nicky.
01:02:25Isn't Nicky a little too close to my middle name?
01:02:28Nobody cares about your middle name.
01:02:29Nobody cares about you.
01:02:31Not after all this time.
01:02:32And I'm going to do this for you because I love you.
01:02:37Now, it won't be right away.
01:02:39I'll have to lay the groundwork with them.
01:02:41Let them know I got a new girlfriend.
01:02:42Things are starting to get serious.
01:02:43We're going to have to wait until they both leave the house together.
01:02:45But then you can have everything that you ever wanted.
01:02:49We're going to have to wait until they leave the house together.
01:03:19It's time.
01:03:40What happens if they don't like me?
01:03:42I'm in charge in this house.
01:03:43I like you.
01:03:45Should I say anything, or...?
01:03:47Just let me do the talking.
01:03:48Let me handle everything.
01:03:50You'll be fine.
01:03:52That weird noise the car was making seems to stop.
01:04:02Mom?
01:04:03Dad?
01:04:04This is my girlfriend, Nicky.
01:04:07Hi.
01:04:08It's a pleasure to meet you, Nicky.
01:04:12It is.
01:04:13We appreciate you offering to help us around here.
01:04:27Hey.
01:04:28You did great.
01:04:30Nothing was off.
01:04:32They didn't sense anything about you, just that you seem like a nice girl.
01:04:35You're going to be a great help to Mom.
01:04:37Mom, the best part of it is, you don't have anything to complain about anymore.
01:04:45You're good.
01:04:58I love you.
01:05:01See you, son.
01:05:06Sit down with us, dear.
01:05:07Have something to eat.
01:05:10Thanks, Mrs. House.
01:05:11Would you like some toast?
01:05:13I'm not hungry.
01:05:16You don't eat much, do you?
01:05:18Skinny little thing like you.
01:05:20I'm sure you're just watching your figure.
01:05:23Maybe you could learn something, Florence.
01:05:25Look who's talking.
01:05:27What do you do for work?
01:05:29Look, um, I don't have a job right now.
01:05:35That's why Tom thought it would be a good idea for me to come in and help you guys out around here.
01:05:40Of course.
01:05:46If you guys are done, I can wash your dishes for you.
01:05:48Okay.
01:05:59At least she has good table manners.
01:06:08Just shut it and run it.
01:06:15What?
01:06:17I don't know how to run it.
01:06:19What kind of a grown woman doesn't know how to run a dishwasher?
01:06:23But you know how to go to the store?
01:06:26Yes, I do.
01:06:26Start there, then.
01:06:33Hello there.
01:06:36Good to have you back.
01:06:38You remember me?
01:06:40Ah, sure.
01:06:41I always remember a kind customer.
01:06:45Oh, thank you.
01:06:47Maybe we see you around a little more often, then?
01:06:51I think so.
01:06:56Hi, Mrs. Hose.
01:07:10What are you doing next?
01:07:12I could iron.
01:07:13You?
01:07:14Iron?
01:07:15You don't know how to iron.
01:07:17Do you?
01:07:19I do.
01:07:20Yeah, just as I thought.
01:07:23Tom.
01:07:24What are you doing with this girl?
01:07:28Mom.
01:07:29Don't mum me.
01:07:31She's good for nothing but being pretty.
01:07:33She's completely useless.
01:07:35I thought I raised you better than that, Tom.
01:07:37Just get out of her face.
01:07:41I'll handle it.
01:07:41I'll handle it.
01:07:42I don't know.
01:08:12Hi.
01:08:20You're very welcome, if you'd like to take that step all the way in.
01:08:24I couldn't. I'm not dressed appropriately for church.
01:08:28Ah, it's not Sunday. God won't mind.
01:08:31But if you'd rather come back another time, that's also fine.
01:08:34We have services some afternoons, too.
01:08:37Okay.
01:08:42Where have you been?
01:08:47Where have you been?
01:08:49I was walking and in church, and that's it. That's all.
01:08:52I didn't know where you were. I didn't know when you were going to be back. None of that is allowed.
01:08:57You may be Nikki outside, but not with me.
01:09:00I own you.
01:09:01I trained you for me.
01:09:03When I'm here, I expect you to be here taking care of me, or else.
01:09:08Is that too complicated?
01:09:09Do I need to keep you to the house?
01:09:11What was that?
01:09:12No.
01:09:13I'll be good. I'll be here when you're here.
01:09:16Get upstairs.
01:09:17Get upstairs.
01:09:17You and your makeup.
01:09:36I gotta go.
01:09:38Here's your allowance.
01:09:40Don't go doing something stupid and lose it.
01:10:15It's my time for now.
01:10:24That's fine.
01:10:24Gotta try that one on.
01:10:26I will.
01:10:28Oh, hot, hon.
01:10:30I know you like to look around by yourself these days.
01:10:33Don't worry about Kath here.
01:10:35You need anything from me, just come right over and ask.
01:10:38I, uh, I actually do.
01:10:40I'm looking for something nice for church.
01:10:42Oh.
01:10:44We're gonna have to clean up our act around a real church car, Kath.
01:10:47I'm sorry.
01:10:49Oh, oh, no, hon.
01:10:50I'm sorry.
01:10:50That was a joke.
01:10:52The best of God's people judge, not lest they be judged.
01:10:55Right?
01:10:56That's more like it.
01:11:21Kiss.
01:11:27Glad to see you're remembering the rules.
01:11:33Why don't you put the TV by the bed?
01:11:35We'll watch a little before dinner.
01:11:55It's always nice that you want to help.
01:12:24But we like your company just fine without the unpaid labor.
01:12:29Oh, plus seeing you have a good time with us makes us younger and hipper, right?
01:12:33Yeah, well...
01:12:34I know.
01:12:37What time is it?
01:12:39It's 2.35 or so.
01:12:42I'm sorry.
01:12:43I have to go.
01:12:44Well, who decided to show up?
01:12:54Tom, I'm the...
01:12:55What?
01:12:55No!
01:12:56Gus.
01:12:57What are you gonna say?
01:12:59What excuse do you think you could have for breaking my rules?
01:13:02I...
01:13:02Maybe you're off to that goddamn church again.
01:13:04Not my family's, but the one you think you can choose for yourself.
01:13:07You disobey me.
01:13:09You betray me when I am the one person who loves you.
01:13:14Now, since you're clearly stupid enough to ruin your life, I'm gonna make sure you understand
01:13:17just how much you need me.
01:13:25Now, I hope you can figure out a way to earn this back before you run out of tampons.
01:13:31Tom.
01:13:31Something interesting on that shelf I should know about.
01:13:48Been there a while.
01:13:53I'm out of money.
01:13:55And I need it to take care of myself, and...
01:13:58I don't know what I'm gonna do to fix it.
01:13:59Nicky.
01:14:02It's that bad.
01:14:03You know, Anja and I will take care of you.
01:14:06You're here most of the time anyway.
01:14:08Why don't you come work for me?
01:14:10I'll make it official.
01:14:12W-2s and everything.
01:14:13I couldn't work for you.
01:14:15Why not?
01:14:17I...
01:14:17I wouldn't be good at it.
01:14:18I'm not smart enough.
01:14:21You do not need a degree to learn to stock shelves.
01:14:24You're plenty smart to me.
01:14:26What's really going on here?
01:14:29It's fine, Tony.
01:14:31I really appreciate it.
01:14:32I really, really appreciate it.
01:14:34But I just...
01:14:35I'm sure my boyfriend will give me my allowance back soon, and...
01:14:38And he wouldn't let me get a job anyway, so it's...
01:14:41Hold on.
01:14:41Hold that thought.
01:14:42Hey there, Lieutenant.
01:14:44Hey there, Tony.
01:14:45What do you say?
01:14:46You still looking for a winner?
01:14:48Oh, what a draft choice.
01:14:50Yeah.
01:14:50It's gonna be amazing.
01:14:51How was the day?
01:14:52Not too bad.
01:14:53How's yours?
01:14:54Oh, great.
01:14:55It's me.
01:14:56You're letting me know.
01:14:57But hey, I cross me, kid.
01:15:00Yeah.
01:15:00Can I get a pack of cigarettes?
01:15:02Oh, yeah.
01:15:02Red's okay?
01:15:03Yeah, no worries.
01:15:13There you go.
01:15:16Think Sidney's gonna be that good?
01:15:17Talk to that jeweler I told you about today.
01:15:23I was thinking princess cut for my princess.
01:15:26I gotta look at all the options, of course.
01:15:28We're gonna have the best for your engagement ring.
01:15:31We both know there's not gonna be a ring.
01:15:35Are you calling me a liar?
01:15:38What?
01:15:40Of course not.
01:15:41Calling me a liar and you're talking back?
01:15:43Oh, you worthless piece of shit.
01:15:46How dare you question me?
01:15:47Everything I do, I do for you.
01:15:49I saved your life and you still question me?
01:15:51How are you so stupid?
01:15:53Good for nothing but being pretty.
01:15:58In fact...
01:16:01Get on that bed.
01:16:03Get on that bed.
01:16:13Have a good time, baby.
01:16:17Yeah, it won't be too late.
01:16:18Yes.
01:16:18Kiss the girls for me.
01:16:19Not too much sugar for a bed.
01:16:21Yeah, I got it.
01:16:22I got it.
01:16:23Hey, hon.
01:16:26Still not allowed to have a job?
01:16:30You know, I just don't get it.
01:16:33Your boyfriend's that school security guard, right?
01:16:35One who lives a few blocks away?
01:16:38You know, I see you in that window
01:16:39and I think,
01:16:40what's she possibly doing with him?
01:16:43You deserve better.
01:16:45You've got to take control of your life.
01:16:48That's not my life.
01:16:50What do you mean?
01:16:51What?
01:16:53I'm sorry.
01:16:54I'm sorry.
01:16:57Nikki!
01:16:57Nikki!
01:17:09Nikki!
01:17:35With her,
01:17:36I'm sorry.
01:17:36Oh, my God.
01:18:06Hey.
01:18:13Listen, I'm sorry about yesterday.
01:18:16I shouldn't have said what I did, and I definitely shouldn't have pushed.
01:18:23My name isn't Nikki.
01:18:25What?
01:18:26My name is Tanya Cash, and I'm a missing person.
01:18:30It's real. You can look it up on the missing person database or whatever it is.
01:18:35Please.
01:18:37Okay. Okay, we can do that.
01:18:42T-A-N-Y-A-K-A-C-H.
01:18:53Oh, my God.
01:18:55Have you been with him this whole time?
01:18:58Yes.
01:18:59Do you have anywhere else to go?
01:19:01I can't go anywhere else. I have to go back.
01:19:03No, you don't.
01:19:04I do.
01:19:04Nick, Tanya.
01:19:05I have to go back.
01:19:07I don't know what he'll do if I don't.
01:19:09But just until the police come, okay?
01:19:12I don't think they'll care.
01:19:13No, Tanya, they will care.
01:19:16If you're going to go back, I need you to be as normal as possible.
01:19:19But here.
01:19:22I'm going to put my number in this phone.
01:19:23If anything happens, if he does anything, you press this button and you'll call me, okay?
01:19:34I have to go back now.
01:19:36Tanya.
01:19:36Did you close the damn door?
01:19:58I did.
01:19:59Good.
01:19:59Where were you?
01:20:06I was at Bible study.
01:20:07Sorry I'm late.
01:20:09I'll grab some laundry and I'll start on chores.
01:20:13Fine.
01:20:14Kiss.
01:20:15Kiss.
01:20:15Kiss.
01:20:16Kiss.

01:20:42Kiss.
01:20:43Kiss.
01:20:44Kiss.
01:20:45I guess you're in no state to make dinner.
01:20:52But you'll be eating it, won't you?
01:20:55No, I don't think I will be.
01:20:58With me.
01:21:00Go, go, go.
01:21:04Are you Tanya Nicole Cash?
01:21:06Yes, I am.
01:21:07Where is he?
01:21:08Freeze!
01:21:08Whoa, whoa, whoa!
01:21:09What's going on?
01:21:10Somebody tell me, please don't move.
01:21:11What's happening?
01:21:12What?
01:21:12It's over.
01:21:13Sit down.
01:21:14I'll hate you.
01:21:15Sit and shut up.
01:21:17You can't just come into my house and bully my son around.
01:21:21Ma'am, your son has been holding this young lady for 10 years now,
01:21:24since she was 14 years old.
01:21:26Your son is going to be placed under arrest.
01:21:28Do you have anything to say about that?
01:21:30Stay with me.
01:21:34If you'd like to get your things now.
01:21:36Yeah.
01:21:38Once she's clear, pop them.
01:21:40A-
01:21:44I-
01:22:01I...
01:22:02I a-
01:22:03I'm...
01:22:03I'm...
01:22:03All right, here she comes.
01:22:19Keep a hold of her.
01:22:21Easy.
01:22:25Can I just say something to Daniel, please?
01:22:27You can't do this, you bitch!
01:22:29Tell them who I am to you!
01:22:33Judas!
01:23:03I'll be right back.
01:23:33I don't know.
01:24:03I don't know.
01:24:08Dania.
01:24:09Hey, Mom.
01:24:10Hey.
01:24:12Well, you're smiling even more than usual.
01:24:15You gonna tell me why or do I have to wait?
01:24:17It's official.
01:24:19I got mine to Edie.
01:24:20You're smart girl.
01:24:22So proud of you.
01:24:23Come on, we gotta go celebrate.
01:24:25We can celebrate later.
01:24:26Can't be late for this.
01:24:33Ben, what she's been able to accomplish, I just, I couldn't be prouder.
01:24:47That's wonderful, Christine.
01:24:49And Tanya.
01:24:50I'd like to take the moment to praise you both for being so dedicated to this work.
01:24:54Coming every week, even when it's hard.
01:24:56Merry Christmas.
01:25:07Oh, you guys came.
01:25:10Of course.
01:25:10Are you kidding?
01:25:12We wouldn't miss this.
01:25:14Go on.
01:25:15Go sing us into the spirit.
01:25:17Merry Christmas.
01:25:18Oh, Merry Christmas.
01:25:19Hi.
