00:00:00I love you.
00:00:44Breakfast at five.
00:00:46Okay, Daddy.
00:00:54I'm going to steal one of these.
00:00:56Want some more eggs?
00:00:58No, thanks.
00:01:00Mrs. Ellis showed us this year's Citizenship Award.
00:01:02It's a medal.
00:01:03It's really big.
00:01:05Like the Olympics.
00:01:06Really?
00:01:07Well, not that big.
00:01:09It's pretty big.
00:01:11I'm going to win it.
00:01:12It wouldn't surprise me a bit if you did.
00:01:15Let's give another person who exemplifies St. Alden's values.
00:01:18Faith, honesty, grace, and compassion.
00:01:21I just don't want you to be disappointed if you don't win it.
00:01:24When are you having another date?
00:01:26Why?
00:01:27Does it bother you when I date?
00:01:29No.
00:01:30Why would it bother me?
00:01:31Hey.
00:01:32Hey, Anangela.
00:01:33Hey.
00:01:34Hey, honey bear.
00:01:36I found your gal.
00:01:37Em and I were just talking about me dating.
00:01:39Not a date.
00:01:40I found you a nanny.
00:01:41Wasn't that the assignment?
00:01:42I mean, new babysitter.
00:01:44I know you don't need a new nanny.
00:01:45I don't need a new babysitter either.
00:01:47Stupid.
00:01:48She's still upset about Miss Levia.
00:01:51You should babysit me, Anangela.
00:01:53It would be an honor, my queen, but I think my patients might object.
00:01:56Don't worry, Em.
00:01:57We're going to find you someone you like.
00:01:59Oh, she also says she's going to win another award this semester.
00:02:04She's got drive.
00:02:05You should be thrilled.
00:02:07Right, Emma?
00:02:09Emma.
00:02:12There's a dead cat in the fountain.
00:02:31Don't be sad.
00:02:33Probably happened very fast.
00:02:35I don't think it felt a thing.
00:03:07Calm down, everyone.
00:03:09I guarantee you it's more afraid of you than you are of it.
00:03:12Emma Grossman.
00:03:36Thank you, Emma.
00:03:37You're welcome, Mrs. Ellis.
00:03:42Yeah, it sounds good.
00:03:45How did you do that?
00:03:47We have a nest in our backyard.
00:03:49The dad says wasps only attack when they feel threatened.
00:03:53It's nature, Milo.
00:04:00I hope you're not allergic to dust.
00:04:02This probably isn't the best place in the house to have a meeting, but I'm on a deadline.
00:04:06No worries.
00:04:07Do you make everything here?
00:04:09No, hardly anything anymore.
00:04:10I have two factories going, but this is where it all began.
00:04:14Cool.
00:04:16Cool.
00:04:17So, tell me about you.
00:04:19Your resume says you were a professional snowboarder.
00:04:22Yep.
00:04:22Right up until I blew up my ACL.
00:04:24I hate to hear that.
00:04:25It's for the best.
00:04:26It's for the best.
00:04:27I still hit it hard.
00:04:27I just try to avoid the dangerous stuff.
00:04:32Sure.
00:04:32So, you've been a nanny for five years?
00:04:35That's right.
00:04:35You seem to like it?
00:04:36I love kids.
00:04:38There's no BS.
00:04:39They're not complicated.
00:04:40If they're sad, they cry.
00:04:41If they're happy, they laugh.
00:04:42It's refreshing.
00:04:43So, is there anything else I need to know?
00:04:44Your references all seem to love you.
00:04:47I make a mean grilled cheese.
00:04:48You want to know the secret ingredients?
00:04:50Sure.
00:04:50Pickles and mustard.
00:04:52Boom.
00:04:52Done.
00:04:56Well, can you start next week?
00:04:58Emma's about to begin her spring break.
00:05:00Sure.
00:05:00I can start whenever you need.
00:05:01Mr. Grossman, here are the Stiegel plants, and you have a materials call in five minutes.
00:05:10Is there anything else?
00:05:11Nope.
00:05:14Is there anything you want to ask me?
00:05:16What's your daughter like?
00:05:19Emma is very focused.
00:05:23She's a normal little girl, but she can be very focused.
00:05:26I don't know how else to say it.
00:05:28She's smart.
00:05:29Straight A's.
00:05:30Never gets into trouble.
00:05:33Loves hot chocolate.
00:05:34My kind of girl.
00:05:35Mine too.
00:05:36And your wife?
00:05:37Should I meet with her too?
00:05:39She died just after Emma was born.
00:05:41I'm so sorry.
00:05:43Thanks.
00:05:44So it's just the two of us?
00:05:47And we manage.
00:05:52Well, I guess I will see you next week.
00:05:56Looking forward to it.
00:06:03Your watch is sick, right?
00:06:06I got it for my birthday.
00:06:07I got a lot for my birthday, too.
00:06:09I don't want to be aware of it.
00:06:10I got a lot for my birthday.
00:06:12Be careful, Sarah.
00:06:13You're it.
00:06:14Check this out.
00:06:15Watch out.
00:06:16Oh, my God.
00:06:19Katie, are you all right?
00:06:21You okay?
00:06:22You're right.
00:06:22Let's go over there.
00:06:23We have been bomb.
00:06:24I'm so sorry.
00:06:25Didn't mean to hurt you.
00:06:26Here.
00:06:27Let me help you all.
00:06:28I'm so cute.
00:06:30I'm so sorry.
00:06:31Heads up.
00:06:33No red roses.
00:06:34Who's it? You stole it. Let's go.
00:06:37Awesome.
00:06:39We're here.
00:06:40Oh my God.
00:07:03You look like a movie star.
00:07:06Don't make me late, Dad.
00:07:08I won't.
00:07:43I won't.
00:07:46I won't.
00:07:47I won't.
00:07:50I won't.
00:07:52I won't.
00:07:54I won't.
00:07:54I won't.
00:07:55I won't.
00:07:55I won't.
00:07:57I won't.
00:07:58I won't.
00:07:58I won't.
00:07:59I won't.
00:07:59I won't.
00:08:04Nice to see you, Milo.
00:08:05Thanks.
00:08:06He has been counting down the days.
00:08:08Oh, tell me about it.
00:08:10And now, our final award, the St. Alden Citizenship Medallion.
00:08:15Every year, we honor someone of character,
00:08:19someone who truly embodies the values that this school was founded on.
00:08:23This year, I am proud to award the St. Alden Citizenship Medallion
00:08:28to Milo Curtis.
00:08:47Here you go, Milo.
00:08:50Good job.
00:08:51Thanks.
00:08:59Wow.
00:09:01I'm sorry I missed our parent-teacher conference.
00:09:03I had a big installation in the city.
00:09:05No worries.
00:09:06We can reschedule.
00:09:07How is Emma doing?
00:09:08I mean, not to put you on the spot.
00:09:10Right.
00:09:11She's fine.
00:09:12She's, um...
00:09:14I have to say, I've never met anyone quite like her in my 20 years of teaching.
00:09:19Why does this sound like a bad thing?
00:09:21No.
00:09:21I didn't mean that in any fashion at all.
00:09:24Emma's never had one mark against her, and she's one of our top students.
00:09:27She can be a real leader when she wants to be.
00:09:29But?
00:09:31Emma lives in her own particular world.
00:09:33And I'm sure it isn't anything like the world that you and I live in.
00:09:36I mean, she has many remarkable qualities that are great in a child.
00:09:40Her courage is most unusual.
00:09:43She's almost without any physical fear.
00:09:47And she really knows how to come across when she has to.
00:09:50She can be an actress, I bet.
00:09:51Please.
00:09:52Not an actress.
00:09:54All right.
00:09:54Mrs. Ellis?
00:09:55Hi.
00:09:55Excuse me.
00:09:56Sure.
00:09:56Mm-hmm.
00:10:03I'm proud of you, honey bear.
00:10:04I know you're disappointed.
00:10:05That medal's mine.
00:10:07I deserve it.
00:10:09Milo can't even talk in front of the class.
00:10:10Emma.
00:10:12Everybody has something special to offer.
00:10:15Milo's a good kid.
00:10:16Yeah.
00:10:17Well, he's an awful public speaker.
00:10:19And he can't spell.
00:10:20Emma.
00:10:24You're right.
00:10:26I'm sorry.
00:10:28Milo's my friend.
00:10:30I'm really happy he got it.
00:10:38I'm sorry.
00:10:42I'm sorry.
00:10:44I'm sorry.
00:10:44I'm sorry.
00:10:45I'm sorry.
00:10:45I'm sorry.
00:10:45I'm sorry.
00:10:46I'm sorry.
00:10:46I'm sorry.
00:10:46I'm sorry.
00:10:48I'm sorry.
00:10:49I'm sorry.
00:10:50I'm sorry.
00:10:51I'm sorry.
00:10:51I'm sorry.
00:10:51I'm sorry.
00:10:51I'm sorry.
00:10:52I'm sorry.
00:10:52I'm sorry.
00:10:54I'm sorry.
00:10:56I'm sorry.
00:10:57I'm sorry.
00:10:59I'm sorry.
00:11:02I'm sorry.
00:11:03I'm sorry.
00:11:32We should go back now.
00:11:44Emma, what's wrong?
00:11:48What do you want?
00:11:54I think you know.
00:12:08One, two, three.
00:12:10Oh, it's good.
00:12:10I'll email it to you.
00:12:12Hey, Dad.
00:12:13Can we get going?
00:12:14Sure.
00:12:15Has anyone seen Milo?
00:12:16I haven't seen him.
00:12:17Emma, have you seen him?
00:12:18Um, the last place I saw him was by the bonfire.
00:12:23Help!
00:12:24Help!
00:12:25Help!
00:12:27Alice, please come!
00:12:46Oh, my God!
00:12:47It's just Milo!
00:12:50Milo!
00:12:51Milo!
00:12:52Come on, come on, baby!
00:12:53Breathe!
00:12:54Somebody do something!
00:12:56Call 911!
00:12:58Milo!
00:12:59Come on, Milo.
00:13:00Come on, Milo.
00:13:02Come on, Milo.
00:13:02Come on, Milo.
00:13:03Come on, Milo.
00:13:03Come on, Milo.
00:13:04Come on, Milo.
00:13:05Milo?
00:13:05Yes, please hurry.
00:13:06Yeah.
00:13:06Help him.
00:13:08Somebody help us!
00:13:11That poor kid.
00:13:14He was lying down on the rocks for hours before they came and took him away.
00:13:18It's horrible.
00:13:21How is she?
00:13:23It's okay.
00:13:25I think she's in shock.
00:13:27I think we all are.
00:13:28She's up there only.
00:13:30I'm sure we'll hit her later.
00:13:32Yes, I'm sure it will.
00:14:07Come on.
00:14:08Good morning, Dad.
00:14:09Morning, Dad.
00:14:11You want some cereal?
00:14:12There's just enough left.
00:14:14No, I'm okay, thanks.
00:14:17How are you feeling?
00:14:18I'm alright.
00:14:21I hope it doesn't rain today.
00:14:23I met about yesterday.
00:14:25You must be pretty sad, right?
00:14:27If you want to talk about it, I'm here for you.
00:14:31Yeah.
00:14:33Do you need someone to talk to?
00:14:37I don't really think there's anything to talk about.
00:14:49Give her time. Kids process differently.
00:14:52Don't make her feel so conscious.
00:14:54You're probably right.
00:14:56She's just so strong, you know?
00:14:58I mean, even her teachers are talking about it.
00:15:01Just hope she can...
00:15:04Take some time.
00:15:06Feel.
00:15:08Look who's here.
00:15:11Great job, by the way.
00:15:13She seems perfect.
00:15:14Miller said she was great with Sam.
00:15:15Professional headhunter, that's me.
00:15:17You're gonna finally take my friend Leslie off.
00:15:19You are relentless.
00:15:20Yes, I will call her.
00:15:21Hey there.
00:15:22Let's get this party started.
00:15:33Washer, dryer, obviously.
00:15:35Wow, this place is amazing.
00:15:37Thanks.
00:15:38It was a fixer-upper my wife and I bought right before Emma was born.
00:15:41Is this your wife?
00:15:43Oh, yeah.
00:15:44That was, um, our Christmas card one year.
00:15:48There she is. Emma, this is Chloe. Chloe, this is Emma.
00:15:52Hi, Emma.
00:15:53It's very nice to meet you.
00:15:54I like your necklace.
00:15:56Do you want to see my medals?
00:15:58We have to finish the tour first.
00:16:00Anyway, emergency number's here.
00:16:02All the keys go in that, uh, little place there.
00:16:06Um, fire extinguishers under the sink.
00:16:08We have a couple upstairs in the bedrooms.
00:16:42I want to watch a movie.
00:16:44The wind was blowing a window open.
00:16:47I'll be down in a minute.
00:17:22Amber!
00:17:28I don't get it. This is stupid.
00:17:32What's stupid?
00:17:34Shirley Temple.
00:17:37The woman was the United States ambassador.
00:17:40I can't imagine she was very stupid.
00:17:44I meant the movie.
00:17:51When's my dad coming home?
00:17:53Soon. He has a meeting.
00:17:56So are you sad about the kid that drowned?
00:17:59I don't think it matters if I'm sad. He's dead anyway.
00:18:04Besides, my dad said you don't feel anything when you drown.
00:18:08You're all warm and fuzzy, aren't you?
00:18:11So what are you into? Music? Horses?
00:18:15I'm into everything.
00:18:17What's the deal with your dad? Got a girlfriend?
00:18:20No. Why?
00:18:22Just asking, no biggie.
00:18:27I had one for a while. I didn't like her.
00:18:31So he dumped her? Yep.
00:18:35You're sort of something else, aren't you?
00:18:37And you're sort of a thief.
00:18:39Excuse me?
00:18:42And you're smart.
00:18:43Saw you take the pills from my dad's bedroom.
00:18:47But not enough for my dad to notice.
00:18:52Don't worry.
00:18:54I won't tell.
00:18:57I think I'm gonna stay up past my bedtime tonight.
00:19:01Now go and get me some ice cream.
00:19:05You little bitch.
00:19:13Bring me a couple of cookies while you're at it.
00:19:16You're so okay.
00:19:16I don't know.
00:19:18You're so okay.
00:19:34You're so okay.
00:19:54I'm so sorry. Thank you.
00:19:58Thanks for coming.
00:20:00Hi, Emma.
00:20:06Oh, don't ask me how I am. I don't want to lie to you.
00:20:09It was a beautiful service.
00:20:12You had a good last day.
00:20:14A really good last day. I mean, he's never won anything before, and he was so proud of that medal.
00:20:20I just wish I knew where it was.
00:20:23You don't have the medal?
00:20:25Well, I think maybe it sunk to the bottom.
00:20:29Is there anything I can do for you?
00:20:30If you have any pictures of that day, I'd like them.
00:20:33There's pictures of him playing happy.
00:20:37It really does help.
00:20:45I don't know.
00:20:45I don't know.
00:20:53I don't know.
00:20:54I don't know.
00:20:54I don't know.
00:20:54I don't know.
00:20:55I don't know.
00:20:55I don't know.
00:20:55I don't know.
00:20:56I don't know.
00:20:56I don't know.
00:20:56I don't know.
00:20:56I don't know.
00:20:57I don't know.
00:20:57I don't know.
00:20:57I don't know.
00:20:57I don't know.
00:20:57I don't know.
00:20:58I don't know.
00:20:59I don't know.
00:21:00I don't know.
00:21:02I don't know.
00:21:02I don't know.
00:21:04I don't know.
00:21:08I don't know.
00:21:21Dad?
00:21:23What are you doing in my room?
00:21:25Just picking up a little.
00:21:26It is picked up.
00:21:28It's always picked up.
00:21:33Anything else?
00:21:36No.
00:22:10It is picked up.
00:22:15It's always picked up.
00:22:19Believe me, nothing like this has ever happened in our 95-year history.
00:22:23And we're using every resource we have to make sure that it never happens again.
00:22:26But there is a legal issue that we have to contend with.
00:22:29Sure.
00:22:30We're reaching out to all the parents to gather whatever information we can.
00:22:34Well, okay, I don't really understand.
00:22:36So this is an insurance thing, or?
00:22:38Well, that's one component, yes.
00:22:41Well, what did happen?
00:22:42No one's given anybody an update.
00:22:44How did Milo fall off that cliff?
00:22:46That's what we're going to find out.
00:22:48Are the police involved?
00:22:50We're not at liberty to share that.
00:22:53Obviously, if and when the authorities are involved, we may share that information with the families.
00:22:58Some families.
00:22:59Excuse me, but is there something you're not telling me?
00:23:02Please don't misunderstand.
00:23:03We're just trying to get to the facts.
00:23:05But if Emma heard or saw something, we need to know.
00:23:09That boy couldn't swim, and he was afraid of water.
00:23:12Why was he out on the rocks?
00:23:14You little shit.
00:23:16Any information would be helpful, as it seems.
00:23:18Emma was the last to see the boy.
00:23:21I'm sorry?
00:23:23At least three people saw her near the rocks.
00:23:26No, we're not saying Emma did anything wrong.
00:23:28Well, I should hope not.
00:23:29Listen, I'd be very careful what you insinuate.
00:23:34Emma?
00:23:35Emma?
00:23:36Emma!
00:23:38What happened?
00:23:40Are you okay?
00:23:41We'll show ourselves out.
00:23:43Yeah, sure.
00:23:44Bye.
00:23:45Let me see this arm.
00:23:47Let me see this.
00:23:47All right, let's get you cleaned up.
00:23:49Okay?
00:23:50You were lucky you didn't cut yourself worse, honey bear.
00:23:53I'm sorry, Daddy.
00:23:55It's okay.
00:23:56Accidents happen.
00:24:00Do you know when Mrs. Ellis was here?
00:24:03It was about Milo, I bet.
00:24:07Is there anything you want to tell me about that day?
00:24:11Anything at all?
00:24:13Nope.
00:24:15You're sure?
00:24:16You weren't ever out on that rock face, were you?
00:24:19No.
00:24:20Mrs. Ellis says you were.
00:24:23She's lying.
00:24:25Honey, why would Mrs. Ellis lie?
00:24:28Because she hates me.
00:24:32She never liked me.
00:24:34I don't know why.
00:24:38How would she say that?
00:24:40Honey, I don't know what's going on.
00:24:42I'm just...
00:24:42I'm just worried about you.
00:24:44I'm sorry, Daddy.
00:24:46I don't mean to get upset.
00:24:48I'm just sad about Milo.
00:24:55You want me to read to you?
00:24:57I'm not really in the mood.
00:24:59Okay.
00:25:02Daddy?
00:25:05Would you give me for a basket of kisses?
00:25:09A basket of hugs.
00:25:18No, no.
00:25:20No.
00:25:22No.
00:25:23I don't know.
00:26:08Hi.
00:26:12Sorry, I was just checking on you and Emma.
00:26:17And we're out of milk.
00:26:36Hey.
00:26:38I'm sorry.
00:26:39I didn't mean to startle you last night.
00:26:40I probably could have waited to do the market list.
00:26:42Yeah.
00:26:45So what's up?
00:26:46Hey, do you mind if I smoke in here?
00:26:48I would never do it around Emma, but out here, I thought.
00:26:52Maybe.
00:26:54You see everything against that wall?
00:26:56It's all flammable.
00:26:57So no, I don't think this is the best place for a smoking area.
00:27:00Ah.
00:27:01Got it.
00:27:02So how can I help you?
00:27:03Emma's arm seems good.
00:27:05I'm sorry.
00:27:05I should have been paying closer attention to her.
00:27:07I was with her one minute, and when I turned around, she was gone.
00:27:11Yeah.
00:27:12I understand.
00:27:13Stuff happens.
00:27:14Stuff happens.
00:27:16Hell yeah, it does.
00:27:21So, let me ask you.
00:27:24How are things with you and Emma?
00:27:26Everything okay?
00:27:27Oh, she's great.
00:27:28Such a cool kid.
00:27:29It's good to hear.
00:27:30She's so fun and smart and funny.
00:27:36I never would have thought of Emma as funny.
00:27:38Oh, not in a weird way.
00:27:39She's funny like, I don't know, like different.
00:27:43In a good way.
00:27:45Most girls her age are pretty lame.
00:27:47Purple leggings and princess posters everywhere.
00:27:48But Emma is like, a lady, you know?
00:27:54I do know.
00:27:55Oh, I was looking at more pictures of your wife.
00:27:58She was pretty hot.
00:28:01Yes, she was.
00:28:08Gotta get rid of these wasps.
00:28:12Well, I'd better get back to Emma.
00:28:14She wants to go on the scooter.
00:28:15Great.
00:28:16Anyway, I love my job here.
00:28:19I just wanted you to know.
00:28:22I appreciate that.
00:28:24I'm sure Emma does as well.
00:28:26Yeah.
00:28:27We love each other.
00:28:34Your dad thinks you have major issues, Curly Sue.
00:28:37What do you mean?
00:28:38He knows what's up.
00:28:40He was grilling me about you.
00:28:41What'd he ask?
00:28:43Wouldn't you like to know?
00:28:44Don't worry, I told him how great you are.
00:28:46I got you, girl.
00:28:48Just don't mess with me.
00:28:53Why is Mrs. Ellis at Milo's?
00:28:56You must be shitting bricks.
00:28:58Gross.
00:28:59Why did you say something like that?
00:29:01Because they're closing in on you now, babe.
00:29:02Building their case.
00:29:04What do you mean?
00:29:06One day the police will get involved and you'll have to complain about what you did to Milo.
00:29:09I didn't do anything to Milo.
00:29:11Sure you didn't.
00:29:12Anyway, you'll see.
00:29:14You better get your story straight or you're going to get busted.
00:29:32Yeah, I'd be worried, too, if I were you.
00:29:34I'm not worried about anything.
00:29:37You're just being a bitch.
00:29:40Look, I don't know what you did to that kid on the rocks, but I know it wasn't good.
00:29:45And I know you're lying to everybody.
00:29:47And you're still from my dad's room.
00:29:49Well, I guess we both have secrets to keep for each other, don't we?
00:29:52My dad says it's not good to keep secrets.
00:29:54You see something, you should tell.
00:29:59You threatening me, honey bear?
00:30:05Do you know what they do to kids that go to jail?
00:30:07Not really.
00:30:09Well, if it's something like stealing or hurting someone, you get sent to a hospital where kids
00:30:14yell and scream and cut themselves.
00:30:17You never get out.
00:30:19But if it's something really bad, like maybe if someone dies, you get sent to the electric
00:30:26chair.
00:30:28You're silly.
00:30:29Wait, nobody would put a kid in the electric chair.
00:30:32Sure they do.
00:30:33Do you know what happens in the electric chair?
00:30:36It cooks you.
00:30:37Your skin crackles and shrivels like when we make bacon in the morning.
00:30:42I don't believe you.
00:30:43A kid wouldn't even fit in that big chair.
00:30:45They have a special one for kids.
00:30:46Stephen painted pink and they put pee-pee pads underneath it for when you piss yourself.
00:30:51God, you're disgusting.
00:30:53Google it.
00:31:05Emma?
00:31:11Emma?
00:31:19Emma?
00:31:21Emma?
00:31:22Emma, you out there?
00:31:26Emma?
00:31:27Emma?
00:31:27Emma?
00:31:27Emma?
00:31:28Emma?
00:31:35Emma?
00:31:37Emma?
00:31:40Emma?
00:31:41Emma?
00:31:41Emma?
00:31:42Emma?
00:31:46TIRROR
00:31:52TIRROR
00:31:54I don't know.
00:32:49I don't know.
00:33:15I don't know.
00:33:26I don't know.
00:33:34I don't know.
00:33:36I don't know.
00:34:23I don't know.
00:34:25I don't know.
00:34:26I don't know.
00:34:29I don't know.
00:34:55I don't know.
00:34:58I don't know.
00:35:16I don't know.
00:35:16What's your hand?
00:35:17Nothing.
00:35:18I don't know.
00:35:33I don't know.
00:35:34I don't know.
00:35:55I don't know.
00:35:59I don't know.
00:36:09You went to Emma alone.
00:36:11What did you think?
00:36:14Emma?
00:36:17How did Milo Curtis' medal get under your bed?
00:36:20I don't know how it got there.
00:36:23How should I know how it got there?
00:36:28Um, were you ever at any time out on that rock face?
00:36:36Yes, Daddy. I went there once.
00:36:38So Mrs. Ellis wasn't lying when she said you were there?
00:36:43I guess she wasn't lying. Yes, Daddy.
00:36:48Were you with Milo?
00:36:53For a minute.
00:36:58And what happened?
00:37:04Emma!
00:37:07This is very serious, and I can't help you if I don't know the truth.
00:37:15Milo and I were playing a game we made up.
00:37:18It was kind of like Capture the Flag, but with his medal instead.
00:37:23I won, so Milo gave me his medal to wear.
00:37:28So he gave you the medal out on the rock?
00:37:31No. I got it.
00:37:33Later on.
00:37:35I don't know where Milo went after that.
00:37:41Emma.
00:37:43Do you know Mrs. Curtis has been looking for this?
00:37:46She wanted to bury Milo with it.
00:37:49I'm stupid.
00:37:51Milo wouldn't even know if he was buried with it or not.
00:38:01Daddy?
00:38:03What's wrong?
00:38:04Where are you going?
00:38:05Thanks.
00:38:09I just need some air.
00:38:17Hey, Ange, it's me.
00:38:18Listen, I need the name of a good child psychiatrist for Emma.
00:38:22There's nothing urgent.
00:38:23There's nothing urgent.
00:38:23I just think that she needs someone to talk to.
00:38:25Okay, I have to turn it first.
00:38:27Oh, okay.
00:38:28Good, thanks.
00:38:29Um, I'll call you back.
00:38:58Listen.
00:39:05Mr. and Mrs. Grossman, there's something wrong with your daughter.
00:39:09I'm sorry.
00:39:32I think I saw something in the fountain.
00:39:41Who did this?
00:39:55Pretty happy with yourself, aren't ya?
00:39:58What do you mean?
00:39:59You know exactly what I mean.
00:40:00Nope.
00:40:02I really don't.
00:40:04Oh.
00:40:05You mad I shitboxed you with Milo's medal?
00:40:07It's so gross.
00:40:09Eat your eggs.
00:40:10I feel bad for you.
00:40:12I wouldn't want to go do this.
00:40:13And I don't want to.
00:40:16I wouldn't say anything.
00:40:18Nothing good can come of this for you.
00:40:20Forgot who I was dealing with.
00:40:22You'll be just fine.
00:40:24You little psycho.
00:40:26Emma?
00:40:28We have to go.
00:40:34It's good to see you, Emma.
00:40:36Anytime I see one of Milo's classmates, it reminds me of how many friends he had and what a good
00:40:41person he was.
00:40:43How's your school break going?
00:40:45Fine, thank you.
00:40:47Mrs. Curtis, we have something that we want to give to you.
00:40:59Where did you find that?
00:41:03Apparently Milo let Emma wear it for a while, and then when he didn't come back, she kept it.
00:41:14She knows it was wrong and she wants to apologize. Isn't that right, Emma?
00:41:17That's right.
00:41:19I'm very sorry.
00:41:21I'm very sorry.
00:41:21I shouldn't have kept it.
00:41:24I don't understand. Milo gave it to you to where? Why?
00:41:27It was a game.
00:41:28I was going to give it back.
00:41:31But he...
00:41:33You never saw him again.
00:41:40Well, I don't know what to say.
00:41:45I'm glad you brought it back to me.
00:41:50This whole day is...
00:41:53I'm still in shock about Mrs. Ellis.
00:41:55I'm sorry?
00:41:58She's dead.
00:41:59She rolled her car on Glenvale Avenue, and she was just here talking about Milo.
00:42:05I didn't know.
00:42:07I'm really sad, Daddy.
00:42:10Mrs. Ellis was my favorite teacher.
00:42:15Do we know how it happened?
00:42:17On the TV, it said there was a wasp's nest in her car.
00:42:21It was a science project or something, and she was stung.
00:42:23I don't know. It doesn't make any sense to me.
00:42:25Daddy, I'm not feeling well.
00:42:27Can we go home?
00:42:28Sure.
00:42:33So...
00:42:33Now we don't have to talk about Milo ever again, right?
00:42:37You gonna run, Daddy?
00:42:39Chloe and I are baking cupcakes today.
00:42:55Hey.
00:42:57Nice and easy saiyan.
00:43:00La Forma!
00:43:23Your
00:43:25We've got to leave soon for our doctor's appointment.
00:43:28I'll be ready.
00:43:30Daddy, I was thinking.
00:43:33You're right.
00:43:34I think something good will come of this.
00:43:38I hope so.
00:43:55Emma, I have some magazines on the table you might like while you wait.
00:43:59I'm just going to have a little chat with your dad, if that's okay.
00:44:02Of course, Dr. March.
00:44:14So, how can I help you and Emma?
00:44:18I don't know.
00:44:21Well, what is your primary concern?
00:44:28Emma has always been different.
00:44:30Very, very much in a good way.
00:44:33But also, there's a coldness.
00:44:40I don't know how to say it.
00:44:43A lack of emotion.
00:44:45I mean, she has emotions.
00:44:46But she'll have surprise and all that.
00:44:48But it could be...
00:44:57She's lying.
00:45:00I don't trust her anymore.
00:45:03Well, it's very common for children her age to lie.
00:45:07Most kids struggle with their emotions.
00:45:11They very often don't know how or what they should be feeling at any point in time.
00:45:18It can be very taxing on a parent.
00:45:22Mr. Grossman, everyone thinks their issues are bigger than they are.
00:45:27More unique?
00:45:30Obviously, there are the rare cases, and I've had them, of real psychological illness.
00:45:39Anyway, I'm looking forward to talking to Emma.
00:45:53So, I'm not the kind of doctor who operates on people or things like that.
00:45:58I'm what's called a...
00:45:59You're a shrink.
00:46:02Well, you know that term.
00:46:04I watch intervention.
00:46:06Oh, yes.
00:46:09Well, I'm a psychiatrist, which is a fancy word for someone to talk to who can help you sort things
00:46:16out.
00:46:17I don't really need anything sorted out.
00:46:20Really?
00:46:22Well, why is that?
00:46:24I mean, most people have something that they would like to be different.
00:46:30I don't.
00:46:32Oh, I see.
00:46:35I understand that your friend Milo recently passed away.
00:46:42That's right.
00:46:45How did that make you feel?
00:46:50Pretty sad, I bet.
00:46:52I cried for two days.
00:46:57Oh, yeah.
00:46:59I understand.
00:47:02Was that the first time someone you knew died?
00:47:10No.
00:47:17Oh.
00:47:18I see.
00:47:21Dr. March.
00:47:23Why do people get so upset when people die?
00:47:27Is it gonna happen to everyone sooner or later?
00:47:29Hmm.
00:47:30It's a great question, Emma.
00:47:32We all do know it's inevitable.
00:47:34And we grieve anyway.
00:47:37You know, to feel or to have empathy for others.
00:47:41This...
00:47:42This...
00:47:42What it means to be human.
00:47:46You have an amazing ability to express yourself.
00:47:50Thank you for sharing.
00:47:52What do you say, know that they're a baby?
00:47:54Ha, ha, ha, ha!
00:47:55That's so funny.
00:47:57Emma.
00:47:58I'm going to tell you a secret.
00:48:00I did the exact same things as you when I was your age.
00:48:09Well, you two seem to have really hit it off.
00:48:12Oh, we had a great talk. Didn't we, Emma?
00:48:15Yes. Daddy, can I go outside?
00:48:18Sure.
00:48:20Mr. Grossman, I have seen thousands of kids in my practice.
00:48:25And Emma seems 100% perfectly average.
00:48:30In fact, I told her she reminds me of myself.
00:48:50When I was out, when I was down
00:48:53Somebody told me something
00:48:55It was simple, but I follow it till the day
00:49:07Hey there.
00:49:09Hey.
00:49:10How'd the appointment go?
00:49:12Fine.
00:49:16Emma's up in her room.
00:49:19Well, I guess I better put on some clothes.
00:49:22Head up there.
00:49:23I hope you don't mind me taking advantage of the sun.
00:49:26No, you gotta take advantage of it.
00:49:32Gotta take advantage.
00:49:34Yep.
00:49:46Don't you have any friends?
00:49:48What do you care?
00:49:51Clearly everyone thinks you're mental.
00:49:53Whenever, Chloe.
00:49:54Now that everyone knows you stole that dead kid's medal,
00:49:56it's just a matter of time.
00:49:59A matter of time until what?
00:50:01Until they find out what you did to him.
00:50:03I don't know what you're talking about.
00:50:05Maybe you'll end up in the little pink chair.
00:50:10I'm gonna have my dad get rid of you.
00:50:12Go for it.
00:50:13He won't do it.
00:50:15Your dad and I understand each other.
00:50:20You can give me that psycho stare all you want,
00:50:21but the fact is this.
00:50:22Your dad's a dilf.
00:50:24D-I-L-F.
00:50:26Okay?
00:50:27And he's single.
00:50:28And he was totally just scoping me out.
00:50:30You wouldn't mind if he and I hooked up, would you?
00:50:33The poor guy needs a release.
00:50:35Let me just look at him.
00:50:37Stay away from my dad.
00:50:42Or what?
00:50:46Wouldn't I make a good step, Mom?
00:50:50You don't scare me, little girl.
00:50:52I don't care if you stood there
00:50:54and watched that little kid drown,
00:50:56or even if you pushed him in.
00:50:58Where I come from,
00:50:59a spoiled little princess like you,
00:51:01ain't nothing.
00:51:03Believe me.
00:51:05It's not nice to threaten people.
00:51:08But you and me,
00:51:09we're not nice.
00:51:12Are we?
00:51:14Are we?
00:51:36Oh, honey, you scared me.
00:51:38Do you like Chloe?
00:51:40Wait, what?
00:51:41She said that you like her.
00:51:43That you...
00:51:45understand each other.
00:51:48She said she could be my stepmother someday.
00:51:50Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:51:51Wait.
00:51:51Hold on a second.
00:51:52First of all,
00:51:53that would never happen.
00:51:54And why would she say something like that?
00:51:57You tell me.
00:51:57Emma.
00:52:00I don't want a stepmother.
00:52:02Ever.
00:52:08Everything's gonna be okay.
00:52:09I have a meeting,
00:52:11but I hope you'll be home early.
00:52:12Okay?
00:52:13And we'll talk.
00:52:14Great.
00:52:15I'll wait up.
00:52:18Have fun on your date.
00:52:20So you never remarried?
00:52:22Nope.
00:52:23Like playing the field that much, huh?
00:52:25Yeah, I love it.
00:52:26It's so fulfilling.
00:52:28I mean, you know,
00:52:29especially raising a young girl.
00:52:39Grant.
00:52:46When I first opened the store,
00:52:48I had about four months.
00:52:50I was really worried,
00:52:51but then business picked up,
00:52:53and it's been really good for six years now.
00:52:56Emma?
00:53:18Damn it, Emma.
00:53:30Emma?
00:53:32Emma?
00:53:35Emma?
00:54:01Emma!
00:54:03Emma, let me out of here!
00:54:04This isn't funny!
00:54:06Emma!
00:54:09Emma!
00:54:33Emma!
00:54:38Emma!
00:54:58Emma!
00:55:01Emma!
00:55:06Emma!
00:55:10Emma!
00:55:12I have a nine-year-old daughter.
00:55:13Her name is Emma.
00:55:13She's here with her nanny.
00:55:14Sir, your daughter is fine.
00:55:16She's in the house with one of my deputies.
00:55:18Now, unfortunately, this has been a terrible accident.
00:55:20The nanny, Chloe, was in the work shed when the fire broke out.
00:55:29I think she's in shock.
00:55:31It hasn't told us much, but apparently the young woman would sneak a smoke in the work shed.
00:55:59It's okay, Daddy.
00:56:02Nothing happened to me.
00:56:19Emma, I know you're awake.
00:56:35I think we're in trouble.
00:56:40I think we're both in very big trouble.
00:56:44And we need to talk and I need you to tell me the truth.
00:56:52I'm your father.
00:56:52Mother, I love you.
00:56:54I'm going to do anything I can to help you.
00:57:06You hurt Milo, didn't you?
00:57:15Didn't you?
00:57:18He was going to tell him that I took his medal.
00:57:24I didn't mean to hurt him.
00:57:28But when I pushed him, he fell.
00:57:35He kept on yelling and yelling that he couldn't swim.
00:57:40I didn't believe him.
00:57:43He always over-exaggerated.
00:57:47After a while, he stopped yelling and I couldn't see him anymore.
00:57:55I'm so sorry, Daddy.
00:57:57I didn't want to get into trouble.
00:58:00I won't do it again.
00:58:09And Mrs. Levia, your first nanny, what happened to her?
00:58:16She should have never grabbed my arm.
00:58:20So I kicked her and she fell down the stairs.
00:58:27I didn't do anything wrong.
00:58:30She's the adult.
00:58:32She should have protected herself better.
00:58:37Like Mrs. Ellison of wasps.
00:58:42And tonight, what did you do to Chloe?
00:58:48Emma!
00:58:50The sheriff will get to the bottom of this eventually, so don't give me the bullshit story.
00:58:53You said bullshit.
00:58:54Emma, do you know what could happen to you?
00:58:58Do you?
00:59:01What could happen to us?
00:59:05Yes, Daddy.
00:59:07They're going to take me and they're going to put me in the little chair,
00:59:10the little pink electric chair.
00:59:13I really don't want to go there.
00:59:16I don't want to be myself.
00:59:18Emma, what are you talking about?
00:59:20Chloe said to you about Milo and one day everyone would.
00:59:26She said they were going to take me to this little electric chair they put kids in.
00:59:31She told me she was going to be my stepmother.
00:59:34Emma, calm down.
00:59:35I don't want a stepmother!
00:59:38Ever!
00:59:42She stole pills from your room.
00:59:46I watched.
00:59:48She fooled you.
00:59:51You weren't going to do anything about it.
00:59:54God bless me!
00:59:59So you did.
01:00:02Isn't that right?

01:05:04oh
01:05:18Fuck!
01:05:40Aren't you going to answer?
01:06:17The killing started with a family pet, but as Timothy grew, so did his crimes.
01:06:23Dr. Michalowicz, an expert on violent child sociopaths, explains.
01:06:28The violence seems to be inside them, buried like a bad thief.
01:06:33Eventually it grows, and once it starts, it doesn't seem to stop.
01:06:40Emma!
01:06:43I don't like you sneaking around like that.
01:06:46How long were you standing there?
01:06:50Were you snooping on me?
01:06:53Think you were snooping on me?
01:06:58I told you.
01:07:00I didn't do anything wrong.
01:07:03I would never hurt anyone for no reason.
01:07:07I would never ever do that.
01:07:11You think I would?
01:07:14Are you daddy?
01:07:18I don't know anymore.
01:07:22That makes me sad.
01:07:24Let's go.
01:09:53Why?
01:09:58Why would you do that to me?
01:10:03I'm the only person you have.
01:10:05No.
01:10:07If something happened to you, I'd live without Angela.
01:10:12At least she thinks I'm nice.
01:10:16Oh, my God.
01:10:20Oh, my God.
01:10:36Oh, my God.
01:10:43Oh, my God.
01:10:43Oh, my God.
01:10:59Oh, my God.
01:11:03Oh, my God.
01:11:15And leave the bottle
01:11:20Cause I can see
01:11:22No ending in sight
01:11:31This fight
01:11:33The war that I wage
01:11:35With the back of my mind
01:11:41Just pour me something
01:11:45And keep it coming
01:11:47Through the night
01:11:51Cause I
01:11:55Am terrified
01:12:21I don't know why
01:12:29But I don't wanna think
01:12:33This whiskey does me right
01:12:37Grips me tighter
01:12:40Than any lover
01:12:42Has tried
01:12:45I brought you your favorite
01:12:48Can I have whipped cream on it?
01:12:51Sure
01:13:14Do you wanna read together, daddy?
01:13:18I don't think so
01:13:20I think you should just sleep
01:13:25Will you sit with me
01:13:26Until I fall asleep?
01:13:31Sure, honey bear
01:13:51The doctors told your mommy that
01:13:54If she didn't take her medicine
01:13:56She might die
01:13:59And she said
01:14:01Only if you can promise me
01:14:02That it won't hurt my baby
01:14:05She always did whatever she wanted to do
01:14:07No matter what the cost
01:14:12You remind me of her
01:14:18Do you know where we're gonna go yet?
01:14:19Do you know where we're gonna go yet?
01:14:23Yes
01:14:26Somewhere safe
01:14:41I love you, daddy
01:14:45I love you too, honey bear
01:14:51Angela
01:14:51She tried to kill me
01:14:52She turned on all the gas in the house
01:14:54David, what you're saying doesn't make any sense
01:14:57You're talking about Emma
01:14:58No, you don't understand
01:14:59She's nine years old
01:15:02Nine year olds don't kill people
01:15:04Listen to yourself
01:15:07You need help
01:15:08Let me come get you
01:15:09She needs help
01:15:10But I'm not going to let them take her away
01:15:12She's not gonna live the rest of her life in some institution
01:15:15Or prison
01:15:19I'm her father
01:15:22I have to protect her
01:15:26And I have protected her
01:15:30I'm so sorry, Angela
01:15:32I am so deeply
01:15:34Sorry
01:15:35But there is no other way
01:15:36And I have thought about every other option
01:15:38Because
01:15:41She'll do it again
01:15:43David
01:15:44David, wait
01:15:46What have you done?
01:15:49It's done
01:15:55No.
01:15:57I'm sorry
01:16:18I Don't want to see her
01:16:20I don't know
01:16:20If you go
01:16:20Night-night, Daddy.
01:16:36You're alive.
01:16:38Yes, Daddy.
01:16:39I didn't drink the hot chocolate you made for me.
01:16:41You did.
01:16:43When I switched them.
01:16:599-1-1, what's the emergency?
01:17:04Help me!
01:17:05My dad's trying to kill me!

01:18:26What the hell's going on?
01:18:27Help!
01:18:29He's trying to kill me!
01:18:30Don't listen to her.
01:18:32She's not right.
01:18:33There's something wrong with her.
01:18:34Put down the gun.
01:18:35I have to do this.
01:18:38Please.
01:18:39I have to protect her from herself.
01:18:42They're coming for her.
01:18:44I will not let you hurt that girl.
01:18:47That's just the problem.
01:18:49Nothing hurts her.
01:18:52Forgive me.
01:18:58Hey, Mind.
01:19:01I have to do it.
01:19:04Yes, I'll help her.
01:19:07Stop it.
01:19:13Help.
01:19:17Okay.
01:19:22Let's die!
01:19:23Oh, no.
01:19:45You're going to shoot that little girl, no question.
01:19:49Just wish I got your son.
01:19:59I'm so sorry.
01:20:02Was Daddy sick?
01:20:04Yes.
01:20:05Yes, I think so.
01:20:09I think your Daddy was sick.
01:20:15Everything's going to be okay.
01:20:18Angela, let me go home.
01:20:21I'm going to have ice cream.
01:20:27You can have whatever you want.
01:20:53I'm going to have fun.
01:20:53I'm going to have food for you.
01:21:02I'm going to have water.
01:21:02I'm going to have fun at the implementation of bastion.
01:21:02You
