00:00:03You
00:00:58Pick up Nicolette.
00:01:00Please pick up.
00:01:06No!
00:01:13No!
00:01:14No!
00:01:16No!
00:01:18No!
00:01:20No! No!
00:01:23No!
00:01:24Get in the car, Brooke.
00:01:25No.
00:01:38Let's go.
00:01:40You got her?
00:01:41Yeah.
00:01:42But she was on the phone with this girl, Nicolette.
00:01:44Who's got the phone?
00:01:46I have Brooke's phone.
00:01:47Good.
00:01:48We'll use it to track the other girl and see what she's up to.
00:01:50Keep me posted.
00:02:06Excuse me.
00:02:07Have you seen this girl?
00:02:10If you do, can you contact that number at the bottom?
00:02:30Hi there.
00:02:31Um, have you seen this girl?
00:02:33Okay, she's a really good friend of mine.
00:02:35Her name's Brooke Summers.
00:02:36If you happen to see her, then can you please contact this number at the bottom?
00:02:39Um, thank you.
00:02:42Hi.
00:02:43Um, I was just wondering if you've seen this girl.
00:02:46She's been missing for a couple days.
00:02:50Sorry to interrupt.
00:02:51Have you seen this girl?
00:02:53She's a really good friend of mine.
00:02:55She's been missing for a couple days.
00:02:56If you happen to see her, can you just contact me?
00:02:58Her name is Brooke Summers.
00:03:00Where are you now?
00:03:01I've been tracking the girl she was trying to call.
00:03:03Good.
00:03:03And you found her?
00:03:04She's actively looking for Brooke.
00:03:06We can't have her mess with the plan.
00:03:08You need to stop this.
00:03:09I understand what needs to be done.
00:03:21Sorry, I didn't see you.
00:03:32Oh, uh, have you seen this girl?
00:03:40Uh, no.
00:03:41Sorry.
00:04:01You think this is it?
00:04:02Finally?
00:04:03I think we have a good shot.
00:04:05I mean, that had to be morning sickness.
00:04:09It's time.
00:04:16Maybe it was just that bad Thai food from last night.
00:04:20Yeah.
00:04:21Mark, wait.
00:04:23Let's talk about this.
00:04:25It's my fault.
00:04:27We both know it.
00:04:28Hey.
00:04:29It's no one's fault.
00:04:36So, how do you feel about finally starting your new dream job?
00:04:40I'm kind of anxious about having to start in the middle of the school year.
00:04:44Look.
00:04:46Don't stress.
00:04:48You're gonna be amazing.
00:05:12Callie, you talked to Nicolette today?
00:05:14She's not answering my texts and she's supposed to be home by now.
00:05:17No, maybe she stayed late at school for tutoring though?
00:05:20The school called.
00:05:21She was absent for most of the day.
00:05:25As soon as you hear from Nicolette, tell her I want to speak with her.
00:05:43Nicolette.
00:05:45Nicolette.
00:05:46Nicolette, sweetie.
00:05:47We talked about this.
00:05:48You can't skip school.
00:05:50You're gonna end up getting a suspension if you do.
00:05:52I'm not gonna stop until I find out what happened to Brooke.
00:05:55I don't care what it takes.
00:05:56If you miss class again, unexcused, the principal is going to be on the phone with me.
00:06:02As long as you live here, I'm responsible for you.
00:06:08Okay.
00:06:18I still feel so guilty that I missed her call, Vanessa.
00:06:23I can't shake the feeling that something horrible's happened to Brooke.
00:06:27Brooke has never given up on me since we were 12.
00:06:31I'm not gonna give up on her.
00:06:33She's been gone for three days.
00:06:35Well, then she'll probably turn up any time now.
00:06:38Remember when she disappeared from the group home?
00:06:39Only to find out she ran off with Trent to be at his family's place in Idaho.
00:06:43We were worried over nothing.
00:06:44I know, but this time it just feels different.
00:06:47Maybe Trey caught up with her as soon as she got here.
00:06:49I mean, she's, well, nine months pregnant by now.
00:06:52Where would she go?
00:07:00You okay?
00:07:04Yeah.
00:07:06I'm fine.
00:07:07It's nothing.
00:07:09Let's just go inside.
00:07:11So Sandy, you ready for this?
00:07:12As ready as I'll ever be, Madeline.
00:07:14Are you regretting this change of career yet?
00:07:16Mr. Days is an accountant.
00:07:20What's this?
00:07:23Oh, Brooke Summers was a student who disappeared months ago.
00:07:26Some of the students had put those up.
00:07:28But then the girl calls her friends after three weeks
00:07:30to let them know that she actually ran off with a boyfriend.
00:07:34Such a shame.
00:07:35Brooke had lots of potential.
00:07:39Everyone take a seat, please.
00:07:47Oh, tardy on the new teacher's first day, I see.
00:07:50Yeah, sorry.
00:07:51Traffic.
00:07:52You know how it is.
00:07:54Jake Hamilton.
00:07:55Here.
00:07:58Welcome, everyone.
00:08:00I'm Ms. Redling.
00:08:01I'll be taking over for Ms. Jenkins' 11th grade English classes.
00:08:06I assume everyone kept up with the readings assigned by Ms. Jenkins before she left
00:08:11and are ready to talk about Fitzgerald's classic, The Great Gatsby.
00:08:17Who can tell me the name of the narrator of the novel?
00:08:27In the back?
00:08:31What's your name?
00:08:33It's Nicolette.
00:08:35Well, Nicolette, you know the school's policy on cell phones in class.
00:08:38Correct?
00:08:41Phone, please.
00:08:42You can get it at the end of the day in the office.
00:08:45And I'll be right back.
00:08:52I will.
00:08:56I will.
00:08:58I will.
00:08:58Oh, God.
00:09:00I will.
00:09:02I will.
00:09:06I will.
00:09:07You can get it.
00:09:25There you are.
00:09:27You missed our entire first class.
00:09:29Yeah, okay, lady.
00:09:30I've got bigger fish to fry.
00:09:32Are you okay?
00:09:34You don't look well.
00:09:35Is it a stomach bug or the flu?
00:09:37Don't worry about it.
00:09:39Or is it something else?
00:09:44Can I get you anything?
00:09:45Can you leave me alone?
00:09:48I'll be back this afternoon for the nurse.
00:09:50Your stuff is still in the classroom on my desk.
00:09:52Okay.
00:09:53I'll go get it.
00:10:15Please.
00:10:16The baby's coming.
00:10:18I need you to keep breathing, honey.
00:10:19Not yet, okay?
00:10:22I changed my mind.
00:10:24I want to keep my baby.
00:10:26That is not an option, Brooke.
00:10:28Not now.
00:10:29You made an agreement.
00:10:31I'll go to the police.
00:10:32I'll tell them what you do here.
00:10:50Excuse me, Nicolette.
00:10:53What do you want this time?
00:10:54Are you feeling any better?
00:10:55I'm fine.
00:10:57It's none of your business.
00:10:59Go be a good doer somewhere else.
00:11:02Nicolette.
00:11:03If you need someone to talk to you about your possible situation, I'm here.
00:11:11Listen, Miss Suburbia.
00:11:14I highly doubt you have any clue of what I'm going through right now.
00:11:25That one can be a challenge.
00:11:27Smart, but not focused, to say the least.
00:11:29Kind of like I was at her age.
00:11:31No, and she's the one whose friend went missing, too.
00:11:33There's always a lot going on with her.
00:11:35So don't take it personally.
00:11:53Where's my baby?
00:11:56Please don't do this.
00:11:58The boss has already given her to a new couple.
00:12:06I don't want your money.
00:12:08Just my baby.
00:12:10I should have never come back here.
00:12:12You are going to dig yourself into a grave, young lady,
00:12:15if you don't get into line.
00:12:18You hear me?
00:12:33So what are you going to do if you are pregnant?
00:12:35I don't know.
00:12:37I thought that we were careful.
00:12:39Famous last words, man.
00:12:41Nothing in this world is 100%.
00:12:43When we first broke, now maybe you.
00:12:45I might just stay celibate until I'm 40.
00:12:49I mean, I don't know what I'm going to do.
00:12:52I finally had, like, a plan.
00:12:55Go to nursing school.
00:12:57Have a life of my own, finally.
00:13:01Is it, uh...
00:13:02Jake's?
00:13:04Yeah.
00:13:06And he's barely talked to me since.
00:13:08Yeah.
00:13:09Oh.
00:13:11Speaking of.
00:13:12I'm going to go talk to him.
00:13:13I'll be back.
00:13:15Jake.
00:13:16Jake, I need to talk to you.
00:13:18I didn't think we had anything else to talk about, Nicole.
00:13:20I haven't seen someone else now.
00:13:21I know.
00:13:21I heard the gossip.
00:13:22You're dating that new girl from the pricey private school uptown, right?
00:13:27Listen, it's nothing against you.
00:13:29It's just...
00:13:30Things just didn't work out.
00:13:33Do you want to know why I was sick this morning in class?
00:13:37I don't care.
00:13:37It's not my business.
00:13:46No, you're...
00:13:46You're lying, right?
00:13:49You're joking.
00:13:51Well, I don't know yet.
00:13:53But if I am...
00:13:57Well, you're lying.
00:13:59I don't have time for this.
00:14:21You need to eat and hydrate if you're going to get your energy back.
00:14:26The boss says she'll buy you a bus ticket to Los Angeles.
00:14:29Isn't that nice?
00:14:31You know, you can take that money that she gave you and start over with a brand new life.
00:14:38She even knows someone who can give a job to a young, pretty girl like yourself.
00:14:47You have no idea how lucky you really are.
00:15:01Please, can you get it for me?
00:15:04I don't have the strength.
00:15:18Brock!
00:15:21Brock!
00:15:23Brock!
00:15:25Brock!
00:15:33Come back here!
00:16:01Where the hell's the girl?
00:16:02She escaped.
00:16:03She took my phone.
00:16:06Where'd she go?
00:16:07I don't know.
00:16:08Give me your phone.
00:16:09I can track mine if she tries to use it.
00:16:22I can't believe you're still here.
00:16:24It's almost seven.
00:16:25I'm just trying to get as much prep work done as I can.
00:16:29Get out of here.
00:16:30The rest can wait till tomorrow.
00:16:31I promise.
00:16:33Good night.
00:16:45You're still here?
00:16:48School ended hours ago.
00:16:49Great observation, Sherlock.
00:16:52Well, the nurse isn't here by now.
00:16:54Yeah, I know.
00:16:55The office told me that she had to come by to drop something off before the school locked up at
00:17:00the end of the day.
00:17:02I probably shouldn't do this.
00:17:06But I have a master key.
00:17:08I have a master key.
00:17:33You're in luck.
00:17:34Here you go.
00:17:36She keeps it just under the counter.
00:17:38I'm sure she won't mind if you take one.
00:17:40Why are you helping me?
00:17:42Look, I know we don't know each other very well.
00:17:44No, you don't know me at all.
00:17:46I remember what it's like to be a teen.
00:17:50Spare me.
00:17:51I hate it when adults say that they remember what it was like when they were my age.
00:17:55When you have no idea what I've been through.
00:18:03Look, I appreciate everything that you've done for me, okay?
00:18:08It's just I can take it from here.
00:18:13Nicolette.
00:18:42Are you okay?
00:18:46I took a pregnancy test and it's positive.
00:18:53I might have some insight into your situation, you know.
00:18:56How?
00:18:59I got pregnant when I was 16.
00:19:04Really?
00:19:06It's true.
00:19:07I just finished my sophomore year and my boyfriend and I, well, we weren't careful.
00:19:16And my parents, well, let's just say they were not thrilled.
00:19:22They were worried about keeping up appearances because of my father's job.
00:19:27So they sent me across the country to live with my grandparents.
00:19:30Told everybody I was studying in Europe.
00:19:36I put the baby up for adoption.
00:19:40I didn't even get a chance to hold her.
00:19:44I couldn't handle it at the time.
00:19:47And then when I came back, my parents and I just never spoke about it.
00:19:52Their relationship has been distant ever since.
00:19:56So I may be Miss Suburbia, but I might have some idea of what you're going through.
00:20:03Maybe.
00:20:08I have to head home.
00:20:13Remember my offer.
00:20:15If you need someone to talk to.
00:20:35Hello?
00:20:35Nicolette, it's me.
00:20:36Oh my God, Brooke?
00:20:38Okay, listen carefully.
00:20:39I don't have much time.
00:20:40There's this woman named Abby.
00:20:41It looks just after me.
00:20:42Every baby is nothing.
00:20:44Okay, meet me at our spot in 20 minutes.
00:20:45Wait, Brooke, where are you?
00:20:47Nicolette!
00:20:49Brooke!
00:20:50This is...
00:20:51This is...
00:20:56This is...
00:21:14Brooke!
00:21:22Brooke!
00:21:23Watch out!
00:21:25Aaaaaaaaah!
00:21:26Aaaaaaah!
00:21:27Aaaaaaah!
00:21:40Aaaaaaah!
00:21:48It's all right.
00:21:58Nicolette.
00:21:59Oh, my God.
00:22:00Are you okay?
00:22:01Hardly.
00:22:03We'll talk more.
00:22:04Give me a call if you remember anything new, day or night, okay?
00:22:08Here's my card.
00:22:16I still can't process all that's happened.
00:22:20I'm Detective Holmes with Homicide.
00:22:23Do you think what happened to Brooke wasn't an accident?
00:22:27According to Nicolette, the car that struck her friend was aiming right for her.
00:22:32Did Nicolette see who was driving?
00:22:35She couldn't recall any identifying features on the driver.
00:22:39We'll be back.
00:22:40She might remember details later.
00:22:48Hey, where you been?
00:22:50Got the history notes from class?
00:23:09Brooke's dead.
00:23:11What?
00:23:31And then, in my fourth period class, two boys decided to fight over the same girl.
00:23:38I swear, so much in this job has nothing to do with actually teaching English.
00:23:45You can do anything you set your mind to.
00:23:48And you've been wanting to teach for years now.
00:23:52You'll start getting a hang of this whole classroom management thing.
00:23:56Well, I hope you're right.
00:23:57I am.
00:24:00You know my student, Nicolette, the one I told you I was worried about?
00:24:03Yeah.
00:24:05Well, it turns out she's pregnant.
00:24:09I actually went into the nurse's office to get her a test.
00:24:13I just hope she talks to me if she needs someone to lean on.
00:24:18She's quite the firecracker.
00:24:21I have some news on my end.
00:24:23What is it?
00:24:25Our UVP at work, Gil, asked me to travel to Charleston for a few weeks.
00:24:32Construction on a new hotel, there's a mess, and he wants me to oversee things, so I have to leave
00:24:36tomorrow morning.
00:24:39A few weeks?
00:24:40Yes, I know I'm not thrilled about it either, but I need Gil on my side if I want to
00:24:45move out.
00:24:47I understand.
00:24:49I'll make it up to you when I come back.
00:24:52I promise.
00:24:55You better.
00:25:03Why couldn't she have just kept her mouth shut?
00:25:07You're lucky I found her at all.
00:25:12Did we really have to kill her?
00:25:22I just can't stop thinking about her.
00:25:26I'm so sorry about Brooke, Nicolette.
00:25:30She was always really nice to me.
00:25:36What could have happened to Brooke's baby, though?
00:25:38Doesn't make any sense.
00:25:48It's Rachel.
00:25:48What does she want now?
00:25:49She just wants to make sure you're okay.
00:25:51She's worried about you.
00:25:53Yeah, it's a little too late, don't you think?
00:26:04Hi, Nicolette.
00:26:06Why don't you have a seat?
00:26:13I can't imagine what you've been through.
00:26:16Brooke was a great girl, and I know you two were close.
00:26:21I want you to know that you can come and talk to me anytime you need to.
00:26:26Stress can take a toll, and I've heard through the grapevine that you've been waking up sick the past few
00:26:32mornings.
00:26:32Do we really have to talk about this now?
00:26:35Because I'm pretty messed up after what I just saw.
00:26:37I know, sweetie, but if you've found yourself in a delicate situation, you can come to me for help.
00:26:45That's why I'm here.
00:26:46No one can help me with this.
00:26:48I have seen a lot in my years here, Nicolette.
00:26:52And I know when the signs are pointing to one of my girls being pregnant,
00:26:58I knew it about Brooke, too.
00:27:02Are you pregnant?
00:27:09Well, if you are, I'd like to introduce you to someone who I think can assist.
00:27:15She's an amazing woman who's worked with girls in the past in a similar dilemma.
00:27:21After you've taken the time to process your grief about Brooke, of course.
00:27:28I'll make it through.
00:27:32I always do.
00:27:45Ah, nothing as fun as an early morning flight.
00:27:49You got everything?
00:27:50Do you remember clean socks?
00:27:51Oh, damn.
00:27:52See, I knew I forgot something.
00:27:55Yes, babe.
00:27:56I remembered clean socks.
00:27:57Well, I had to ask, you know, after that meeting you had in San Francisco where you...
00:28:02Didn't realize I forgot clean socks ten minutes before going to a meeting?
00:28:06Yes.
00:28:06Yes.
00:28:09I'll miss you.
00:28:10I hate leaving you the first week of your new job.
00:28:13I'll be fine.
00:28:15All right.
00:28:23Mark.
00:28:24Yeah.
00:28:26I had a thought on my run.
00:28:29Maybe we can talk to that IVF specialist that your co-worker used.
00:28:32I mean, it's worth a shot just to get some information about it, right?
00:28:37Okay.
00:28:38Um, how about we talk about that when I come back?
00:28:41Okay.
00:29:05I'll be right back.
00:29:09Okay.
00:29:17So, now you want to talk.
00:29:19Look, I just heard about Brooke.
00:29:22Is it true that you saw when she got hit by a car?
00:29:26Yeah.
00:29:28It's true.
00:29:29I'm sorry to hear that.
00:29:33What do you want, Jake?
00:29:36I just have to know, are you...
00:29:38Pregnant?
00:29:40Yeah.
00:29:41I'm pregnant.
00:29:42Please just lower your voice for me.
00:29:44Go to hell, Jake.
00:29:45No.
00:29:47Please.
00:29:49Talk to my mom about you maybe being pregnant.
00:29:53You did.
00:29:54Well, I can't imagine what she said.
00:29:57She's not really a big fan of mine.
00:29:59Right?
00:30:00Sorry that you got the girl from the wrong side of the tracks.
00:30:03Pregnant, rich boy.
00:30:05She wants to make an arrangement.
00:30:07Okay?
00:30:08Just, all you have to do is sign a couple documents that a lawyer draws up and we'll be good.
00:30:12What do you mean?
00:30:13An arrangement?
00:30:17It's money, Nicolette.
00:30:19To do whatever option you want to do.
00:30:24So you really think that throwing money at this situation is going to make things better?
00:30:27It's going to solve things?
00:30:28No, but...
00:30:29This is your kid.
00:30:33Sorry, it's the best I can do right now.
00:30:47According to her social worker, Brooke last lived here five months ago. Is that correct?
00:30:53Yes.
00:30:54From what I understand, she ran off with her boyfriend.
00:30:57I think the girl said his name was Trent.
00:31:01We'll look into her boyfriend.
00:31:04She turned 18.
00:31:07So, there wasn't anything we could do when she left.
00:31:12It's unfortunate, but...
00:31:15Sometimes our girls don't make the best decisions.
00:31:19One thing we didn't expect is we found an envelope with a large amount of cash on her body.
00:31:24Oh, really?
00:31:25We're still unsure how a girl in her situation would have that much cash on her.
00:31:47Nicolette, do you have a second?
00:31:51The girl who died, Brooke.
00:31:55She was your friend, wasn't she?
00:32:00I'm so sorry.
00:32:03Every time I close my eyes, I just see the car heading straight towards Brooke.
00:32:10And between that and having my life upended, finding out that I'm pregnant...
00:32:17I've been living at a depressing group home for two years.
00:32:19What can I do with a child?
00:32:21What do I have to offer it?
00:32:23What about your family?
00:32:26I've never met my dad.
00:32:28And my mom.
00:32:31There were lots of men.
00:32:34She got addicted to prescription pain medication.
00:32:39Then CPS came by once one of the neighbors found out that, um...
00:32:44I'd been spending most of my nights alone.
00:32:48So I had nowhere else to go.
00:32:50It's how I ended up at the group home.
00:32:52I'm so sorry, Nicolette.
00:32:55Someone your age should never have to go through something like that.
00:32:58Yeah, well...
00:32:59It's just my reality.
00:33:05Do, um...
00:33:07Do you ever think about the baby that you put up for adoption?
00:33:12Every day?
00:33:15But I have no doubt I made the right decision for my child.
00:33:20I knew I was not ready to be a mother.
00:33:25Is that what you're thinking for your child?
00:33:26Adoption?
00:33:28Maybe.
00:33:29Can I give you some advice?
00:33:33Take your time with this decision.
00:33:36Okay?
00:33:37Don't rush into it.
00:33:39I probably would have chosen adoption regardless, but...
00:33:42I wish I had taken more time to come to that conclusion.
00:33:47If you ever need to talk about it, or anything...
00:33:51Let me know, okay?
00:33:55Yeah.
00:33:57Thanks for taking the time to talk to me.
00:34:02A lot of adults just see me as a problem that...
00:34:05They need to deal with.
00:34:07I guess that's why I act the way that I do.
00:34:10I mean...
00:34:11Why try to be different or better...
00:34:14If everyone has low expectations for you anyways?
00:34:17Oh, honey.
00:34:19You are a great kid.
00:34:22Who's just in a tough situation.
00:34:24Okay?
00:34:24Don't let it define the rest of your life.
00:34:28My friend...
00:34:29My friend...
00:34:31Brooke...
00:34:31She ran away just after she got pregnant.
00:34:34And then showed up back in town...
00:34:36Five months later...
00:34:38Where she died.
00:34:40What happened to the baby?
00:34:41I don't know.
00:34:43But she definitely wasn't pregnant anymore when I saw her.
00:34:48Let me see your phone.
00:34:51Why?
00:34:52Just trust me.
00:35:01I'm gonna put in my number.
00:35:03You can call me anytime, okay?
00:35:08I hope they find out what happened to your friend.
00:35:15Oh, no.
00:35:16Are you okay?
00:35:22I'm just realizing that, um...
00:35:27Morning sickness happens...
00:35:29It can hit you 24-7.
00:35:33I'll make you a deal.
00:35:36Both the group home and the drugstore are on my way home.
00:35:41If you promise to study for your great Gatsby quiz...
00:35:46I'll bring you something to deal with your morning sickness.
00:35:54Sometimes people just want to be nice, Nicolette.
00:36:14Could I see you in my office, please?
00:36:18Just for a minute.
00:36:23Here she is.
00:36:24Nicolette.
00:36:26I am Abigail.
00:36:27I've so been looking forward to meeting you.
00:36:29And I am really sorry to hear about what happened to your friend.
00:36:34Why don't I give you two some alone time so you can get acquainted?
00:36:38Would that be all right with you, Nicolette?
00:36:44Well, then.
00:36:45I'll be outside.
00:36:47Thank you, Rachel, for this and everything you do for all the girls.
00:36:53Now, Nicolette.
00:36:56Rachel told me that you recently found out you're pregnant.
00:37:00I know that this can be a very scary and unsettling time for you,
00:37:05especially a girl your age.
00:37:08What's her deal?
00:37:11What do you want?
00:37:13I like that.
00:37:15Straight to business.
00:37:17I happen to run one of the most prestigious private adoption agencies in the state.
00:37:23And our prospective parents are amazingly pedigreed.
00:37:27They are highly educated, professional, and very well-off.
00:37:30They're willing to compensate.
00:37:32Are you saying that you want to sell my baby?
00:37:36That would be illegal.
00:37:38But it is quite common and legal.
00:37:40For many parents to pay for the living expenses or to put together a little trust fund for your college
00:37:48expenses.
00:37:48You see, private adoption is not just a loving choice for your baby,
00:37:53but it's a good choice to carve a positive path forward for you.
00:37:58Would you mind if we go over the particulars together?
00:38:06So this is a lot to take in, and I am sure that you will have many questions.
00:38:14I expect that.
00:38:15And that is perfectly normal.
00:38:16Well, this has my cell phone number on it.
00:38:20You can call me anytime.
00:38:22And trust me when I tell you, you are making the best choice when you're considering adoption for your child.
00:38:33How are things going?
00:38:34Well, I think she has a lot to consider, but Nicolette is a smart girl.
00:38:41I don't know.
00:38:42I don't know.
00:38:54Hi!
00:38:56Hi!
00:38:59Here you go.
00:39:02Thanks.
00:39:03It's just some ginger candies that my cousin swore by when she was pregnant.
00:39:07Thanks. This means a lot.
00:39:10It's no big deal. Like I said, this place is on my way.
00:39:13How are you feeling?
00:39:16It's been a lot.
00:39:19A woman from the adoption agency just came by to talk to me.
00:39:22She did?
00:39:23Yeah.
00:39:25May I help you?
00:39:28This is my English teacher, Miss Ridling.
00:39:31She just came by to drop something on me.
00:39:33Well, that was nice of her.
00:39:35This is Rachel. She runs the group home.
00:39:39And this is Abigail. She runs the adoption agency.
00:39:42It's so nice to meet you. It's wonderful to see such a dedicated educator.
00:39:47Nice to meet you, too.
00:39:49Well, I guess I'll be going.
00:39:52Nicolette, we'll talk soon.
00:40:06Is it normal for the manager here to refer girls to a specific adoption agency?
00:40:11I don't know.
00:40:12But, um, I do remember Brooke talking about adoption, but...
00:40:19But what?
00:40:20It was painful for her to talk about her pregnancy.
00:40:24It was the first time where I felt a lot of distance between us.
00:40:28And God, now I really understand what she was going through.
00:40:33I finally had a plan for my life.
00:40:37Kind of wanted to be a nurse. Help people.
00:40:41You still can, Nicolette.
00:40:43It may sound cliche, but it's true.
00:40:47Where there's a will, there's a way.
00:41:00I can't believe this is all we have left of Brooke.
00:41:04It's only because you forgot it.
00:41:10We made this in sixth grade art class together.
00:41:19What is it gonna take for people to actually care about what happens to kids like us?
00:41:29I'm gonna find out what happened to Brooke.
00:41:42You're dead.
00:41:47Claudia's in your office.
00:41:49You need to talk to her.
00:41:51I thought she'd got a plane ticket on her phone.
00:41:53Another problem.
00:41:55We're starting at way too many of those in this city.
00:41:58I want you to start following the Nicolette girl.
00:42:01Find out where she goes.
00:42:02It could be useful information for us in the very near future.
00:42:15Something wrong, Claudia?
00:42:18I only took this job because I desperately needed the cash
00:42:22to help pay for my mother's experimental cancer
00:42:25treatments.
00:42:26But it doesn't always feel right.
00:42:33Keeping some of these girls locked up and...
00:42:36No one is locked up.
00:42:38They are simply detained until they give birth.
00:42:41I know, it's just, uh...
00:42:46It's just a lot.
00:42:48I know.
00:42:52Why don't you go home and get some rest?
00:42:56Everything will look brighter tomorrow.
00:42:58Okay.
00:43:01Okay.
00:43:01Okay.
00:43:14Okay.
00:43:24Okay.
00:43:26Okay.
00:43:28Okay.
00:43:39Okay.
00:43:41Okay.
00:43:42Okay.
00:43:45Okay.
00:43:54Okay.
00:44:00Okay.
00:44:12Hey.
00:44:14Alex, what are you doing?
00:44:15I think you know I'm here, Claudia.
00:44:18I'm just a liability now.
00:44:25There it goes.
00:44:27A message to Brooke's good-for-nothing boyfriend, Trent.
00:44:30I thought you said Trent hasn't been on that site in years.
00:44:33I don't know.
00:44:34It's worth a shot.
00:44:35Maybe he'll log back in.
00:44:36Maybe he has some information on the investigation.
00:44:42I'll see you later.
00:44:43I gotta take care of something.
00:44:51Hey, can I talk to you?
00:44:53Now?
00:44:56Catch you later, man.
00:45:00What's up?
00:45:03I've been thinking about putting the baby up for adoption.
00:45:13Okay.
00:45:19Don't forget to answer the questions at the end of chapter seven, okay?
00:45:22Have a good evening.
00:45:23Somebody did well in their quiz.
00:45:25Uh, yeah.
00:45:27Those ginger candies that you got me for the nausea helped me concentrate and study.
00:45:32Did you think more about the meeting that you had with that lady?
00:45:36Yeah.
00:45:37But, um, I-I don't know yet.
00:45:42Again, take your time with this decision.
00:45:47Would you, um, would you have some time to talk to me about it more?
00:45:52I just-I have some questions about your experience.
00:45:55Sure.
00:45:56Did you want to grab a bite at the diner on Fifth Street?
00:46:00I-I have a teacher meeting now, but I could meet you there at 7.30.
00:46:03My treat.
00:46:04No, it's okay. You don't have to do that.
00:46:05No, no, no. It's no big deal.
00:46:07See you there?
00:46:10Yeah.
00:46:10I'll see you there.
00:46:23How are you, Nicolette?
00:46:25I just wanted to touch base. I know how tough things have been.
00:46:29That's an understatement of the year.
00:46:31Well, we're having your favorite for dinner tonight.
00:46:35Pizza? That should put a smile on your face.
00:46:38I'm actually going out for dinner with someone.
00:46:41And who would that be?
00:46:43I won't be back late, okay?
00:47:01Oh, hey there.
00:47:03Hey, it's such a shame about Brooke Summers.
00:47:06I'm so young, I can't stop thinking about the poor girl.
00:47:08Yeah, I know. It's horrible.
00:47:10Nicolette's been very brave considering how close they were.
00:47:14I just hope they find who did it.
00:47:16Not at all.
00:47:21I can't.
00:47:32I can't do it.
00:47:34You can't have to do it again, come on.
00:47:36I don't know.
00:47:36How do you want to do it?
00:47:36I don't know.
00:48:32Hey, Nicolette, sorry.
00:48:33I'm just running a few minutes late.
00:48:34I'm falling. I'm scared I might have hurt the baby.
00:48:37I'm at the parking lot across from the diner.
00:48:41Stay there. I'm on my way.
00:48:53How's the baby?
00:48:55You're very lucky. The baby is fine.
00:48:58You need to be careful.
00:49:00Since you did have some spotting and cramping, I want to keep you overnight just in case.
00:49:06Was that your mom in here earlier?
00:49:09Oh, no. That's my teacher.
00:49:11She did the right thing in rushing you here.
00:49:20Hey, hon.
00:49:21Hey. I just wanted to check in and see if you were able to get us an appointment with the
00:49:26doctor.
00:49:26Oh. Sorry. I've been a little distracted lately.
00:49:31What's wrong?
00:49:32Well, you know my student, Nicolette, that I told you about?
00:49:35Yeah.
00:49:36Well, she thinks she was being followed and fell as she ran off.
00:49:40I brought her to the hospital, and she's with the doctor now.
00:49:43That's terrible.
00:49:44I know. It is.
00:49:46This poor girl has been through hell the past 48 hours, and I can't shake the feeling that...
00:49:56That...
00:49:56That something bad is going to happen.
00:50:03Nicolette, I got here as fast as I could.
00:50:06Oh, you poor thing.
00:50:07I'm Dr. Gibbs, and you are?
00:50:09I'm Rachel.
00:50:10I manage the group home where Nicolette currently lives.
00:50:13I should be her emergency contact.
00:50:16Oh, Nicolette.
00:50:18You've been through enough as it is.
00:50:20Please talk to the charge nurse so we can get your information.
00:50:25And you need to get some rest, young lady.
00:50:28I'll check on you later.
00:50:34I had just got a call from Abigail from the adoption agency before I got here.
00:50:39I told her what happened, and she wants to come check in on you later.
00:50:44Yeah, I guess.
00:50:53Do you have any news on Nicolette?
00:50:55Yeah.
00:50:56She, uh, she stayed overnight at the hospital.
00:50:59She was convinced someone was following her.
00:51:01I don't know.
00:51:03So many crazy things have been happening lately.
00:51:06What is it?
00:51:08Brooke's boyfriend, Trent, just messaged me.
00:51:10He finally checked the social media app.
00:51:13He's in town, and he wants to meet up.
00:51:24How did this happen to Brooke?
00:51:26Where's my baby?
00:51:28You need to calm down, Trent, if we're going to figure out what happened to Brooke.
00:51:30I can't believe nobody told me what happened to Brooke.
00:51:33Or my baby.
00:51:34Well, what happened between you two?
00:51:36Huh?
00:51:36When was the last time you saw her?
00:51:37What happened in Idaho, Trent?
00:51:39Things were going okay.
00:51:41We just moved in with my parents.
00:51:42I know, it's not perfect.
00:51:45One morning, I wake up, and Brooke's gone.
00:51:47She left a note there saying she went to L.A. to give our baby up for adoption.
00:51:51Los Angeles?
00:51:51Yeah, and like an idiot, I went down there to look for a friend of hers, to bring her back.
00:51:55But she lied to me to throw me off track.
00:51:58Because obviously, she was here.
00:52:01Where are you going?
00:52:02To talk to somebody at that group home.
00:52:03They don't know anything.
00:52:06Trent!
00:52:16Were you able to get some sleep last night?
00:52:19No.
00:52:21Did the doctor come in already?
00:52:23Yeah.
00:52:25Hello, Nicolette.
00:52:27I'm glad you called me.
00:52:28So you're saying someone was following you last night.
00:52:31I...
00:52:33I don't know.
00:52:34But it...
00:52:35It felt like it, though.
00:52:38Would you mind giving us a minute?
00:52:41Wouldn't it help if I stayed here for this?
00:52:44No.
00:52:44I'll be fine.
00:52:47I'll be right outside if you need me.
00:52:54Okay, Nicolette.
00:52:55Let's start at the beginning.
00:52:59Okay.
00:53:06Okay.
00:53:23Abigail, where have you been?
00:53:25I can't take this anymore.
00:53:26Rain it in, Rachel.
00:53:27There's a cop in there with her.
00:53:29I pay you handsomely to keep your cool.
00:53:32Remember that.
00:53:36Was she able to give you any information that might help?
00:53:39She gave me a good number of details.
00:53:41It's important to remember that Nicolette's traumatized by seeing what happened to her friend.
00:53:46So she may have let her imagination get the best of her.
00:53:51However, she was a witness to a possible homicide.
00:53:53So we need to take everything seriously.
00:53:56Well, of course.
00:53:59And you are?
00:54:01I'm Abigail.
00:54:02I'm a friend.
00:54:05Well, please tell Nicolette to contact me if she remembers anything new.
00:54:09Will do.
00:54:10Thank you, detective.
00:54:13What now?
00:54:15I'm going to speak with her.
00:54:16Let me handle it.
00:54:17Have you given any more thought to adoption?
00:54:22Yeah.
00:54:24Um, my teacher helped me understand that it's important to take my time with such a big decision.
00:54:38That's, um, all that I have left of Brooke.
00:54:43Tell you what.
00:54:45How about I order you a rideshare?
00:54:49The car can come and pick you up right here.
00:54:51Stop by the drugstore.
00:54:52Pick up anything you need before you go home.
00:54:56Yeah, I guess that's okay.
00:54:58Um, I think that the doctor said they'll release me a little after seven.
00:55:02Great.
00:55:03I will order you a car for then.
00:55:09Oh, um.
00:55:12It's, um, it's a friend.
00:55:15Oh, I'll let you take that.
00:55:18Thanks.
00:55:26This is, uh, surprise?
00:55:30Yeah, yeah, I just, uh,
00:55:31I wanted to check in and see what you're doing.
00:55:34Yeah, it was an accident.
00:55:36I fell.
00:55:38It's a long story.
00:55:40And?
00:55:41The baby?
00:55:42It's fine.
00:55:43Yeah, they just, um,
00:55:45they just have me here a little longer for observation.
00:55:49Um,
00:55:50I was thinking.
00:55:54The woman from the adoption agency, Loving Arms, just came by to check on me,
00:55:59and I'm still leaning towards the decision of adoption as the best option for the baby.
00:56:07Hey, hey, listen, I never told you this, but, um,
00:56:13my dad's not my birth dad.
00:56:15My mom had a rough, short first marriage, and, well, I was, I was a result of it.
00:56:23My dad adopted me when I was two, and married my mom, but,
00:56:27and don't do me wrong, he's great, but.
00:56:31But what, Jake?
00:56:34Sometimes I just wonder, like,
00:56:37why wasn't I enough for my birth dad to stick around?
00:56:44Nicolette seems to have the address of our birthing rooms written on a piece of paper.
00:56:49I think Claudia gave it to Brooke when she came back to town.
00:56:53What do you think we should do?
00:56:54I need you to come up with a story for why Nicolette won't be returning to the group home tonight.
00:57:01Are you listening to me?
00:57:02Yes.
00:57:03Good.
00:57:05We'll talk soon.
00:57:13Alex.
00:57:14Yeah?
00:57:14It's time to now move locations.
00:57:16Be sure to get our passports ready.
00:57:18Sure.
00:57:19I'll talk to Rachel.
00:57:20Yeah, don't tell Rachel anything.
00:57:25So you the lady who runs this place?
00:57:27Yes, I am.
00:57:29So where's Brooke at?
00:57:35Hey, sweetie.
00:57:36How are things going?
00:57:37Good.
00:57:38How are you doing today?
00:57:39Well, it's been quite the week.
00:57:43How's your student?
00:57:43Well, she's still in the hospital, but I think she's going to be released today, thankfully.
00:57:49Okay.
00:57:49Well, I have some good news that will cheer you up.
00:57:53Really?
00:57:53So I just found out I'm getting this huge bonus thanks to that hotel deal I just closed.
00:57:59That's awesome.
00:58:00We can use the money to pay off...
00:58:02Actually, what do you think about us using that money to pay for IVF treatment?
00:58:11Really?
00:58:11You want to try it?
00:58:14Why not?
00:58:15It's always been the money that held us back.
00:58:18That's great.
00:58:20Let's do it.
00:58:22I'll make an appointment for when you get back.
00:58:24Okay.
00:58:25Bye, babe.
00:58:26Okay.
00:58:27Bye.
00:58:34Once Brooke left the home, we never heard from her again.
00:58:38Yeah, but what about that lady she said was trying to talk her into the adoption?
00:58:42Uh, Abby or Abigail, something like that.
00:58:45She said someone from here connected her to that agency.
00:58:48Maybe that woman knows something about my baby.
00:58:51I have an idea.
00:58:53Why don't you give me your contact information?
00:58:55I'll do some digging on my end, and I'll get back to you by the end of the night.
00:59:01I promise.
00:59:03Bye.
00:59:04You didn't have to come back, you know.
00:59:08I was so worried about you.
00:59:12Those are beautiful.
00:59:14Oh, yeah.
00:59:14It was a gift from Abigail from the adoption agency.
00:59:18Really?
00:59:19She was here?
00:59:20Yeah.
00:59:22That's interesting.
00:59:25Thank you for everything that you did for me last night.
00:59:28I told you.
00:59:29You can count on me.
00:59:34You know, talking to you about your situation
00:59:39has me thinking a lot about what I went through.
00:59:42How so?
00:59:45Remember when I said that my parents didn't talk about my baby when I came home after having her?
00:59:55I think on some level, I knew how much that affected me.
01:00:00How much it made me blame myself for the entire thing.
01:00:04I thought maybe me not being able to conceive now is because of the shame I brought on my upstanding
01:00:13parents.
01:00:13No, you would make an amazing mom.
01:00:17You did the best that you could.
01:00:20Just like I'm trying to do right now.
01:00:23Are you sure you're only 16?
01:00:26Because I was pretty darn wise.
01:00:29I have my moments, I guess.
01:00:34I could stick around and give you a ride home if you want.
01:00:38No, it's okay.
01:00:39You've done enough.
01:00:40I actually, I have a ride share.
01:00:42Okay.
01:00:43Well, if anything changes, you can call me, okay?
01:00:47Will do.
01:01:00Hello?
01:01:01Trent.
01:01:02It's Rachel at the group home.
01:01:05I might have some information about Brooke, but we need to keep it between the two of us for the
01:01:10moment.
01:01:11Yeah, okay.
01:01:12It's very important.
01:01:13Can you do that?
01:01:15Sure, of course.
01:01:16Good.
01:01:18Meet me at 515 Morrison downtown.
01:01:20We have to do this in secret.
01:01:23For Brooke.
01:01:24I'll be there.
01:01:39Fred?
01:01:41Yeah, and you are?
01:01:52I can't concentrate with everything going on.
01:01:55Nicolette was supposed to be back by now.
01:01:56Rachel said she was coming home tonight.
01:02:02I've been here three years, you know?
01:02:05Brooke's not the first girl to disappear from here mysteriously.
01:02:08What do you mean?
01:02:11Never mind.
01:02:12Never mind.
01:02:13Okay.
01:02:23Callie, if you know something, anything, tell me.
01:02:29Please.
01:02:37There's been at least one other girl that they said ran away who was also pregnant.
01:02:43What was her name?
01:02:45Misty.
01:02:47Misty Miller.
01:02:48She lived here two years ago, and then one day I walked in on her.
01:02:53She had an envelope with a lot of cash.
01:02:56A lot.
01:02:57And not soon after, she was just gone.
01:03:01I never found out what happened to her or her baby.
01:03:06But I think Rachel knows something about it.
01:03:09Callie?
01:03:14Callie, do you think you could help Mrs. Hill in the kitchen for dinner?
01:03:19Now, please?
01:03:24Everything okay, Vanessa?
01:03:26Yeah.
01:03:27Yeah.
01:03:38I don't know.
01:04:05Nicolette?
01:04:06Yeah.
01:04:08Have me ride, Hopin'.
01:04:45Why are we stopping?
01:04:53Sorry, one of the tires is actually funny.
01:04:58I'm gonna go check it out.
01:05:10What are you doing?
01:05:11Oh!
01:05:12Hey!
01:05:13Hey!
01:06:03I'm so sorry about this situation Nicolette, but unfortunately you left me with no alternative.
01:06:15Where, where, where am I?
01:06:17What is, what is this place?
01:06:20It's a temporary home until I can make arrangements for more permanent accommodations.
01:06:29A long way from here.
01:06:49Jake, what are you doing here?
01:06:50I came to see Nicolette.
01:06:52Yeah?
01:06:52Just wanted to make sure she's okay.
01:06:54Well, she hasn't come back yet.
01:06:55Even though she texted me last night and said she was on her way.
01:06:58That's weird.
01:06:59Yeah.
01:06:59Where the hell is she?
01:07:01She's bad.
01:07:02I feel it in my bones.
01:07:03But where are you going?
01:07:06I'm trying to track down this other girl.
01:07:07She used to live here and she was pregnant too.
01:07:09Just like broke one day, she wasn't here anymore.
01:07:12It's a long shot, but I think I know where she works.
01:07:14Can I come with you?
01:07:16I guess.
01:07:16I mean, I can drive.
01:07:18Sure.
01:07:19Great.
01:07:20So you can call the hospital too, see if they know anything about Nicolette.
01:07:32Hey, it's Nicolette. Leave a message.
01:07:36Hi Nicolette, it's Ms. Ridling.
01:07:38I just wanted to see how you're feeling today.
01:07:40Send me a message when you get a sec.
01:07:47When I get out of this bed, I swear!
01:07:49Who are you, really?
01:07:52Are you in this with Rachel?
01:07:54She has something to do with Brooke and her baby?
01:07:58Tell me!
01:08:00Brooke tried to back out of an agreement we had
01:08:03and became a complication, that's true.
01:08:06What did you do with her baby?
01:08:08Where is it?
01:08:10Living happily with a wonderful, advantaged couple
01:08:14who paid a handsome price.
01:08:16In fact, I'm certain I'm going to get the same for yours.
01:08:27Hey, do you have a second to chat?
01:08:29I am having a day.
01:08:31I think I like overheated the milk for a cappuccino or something
01:08:35and it exploded everywhere.
01:08:38And I'm going to call you back in about five minutes.
01:08:41Can I help you guys?
01:08:43Are you Misty Miller?
01:08:45Why, who are you two?
01:08:46I live at a path ahead group whom I heard you used to live there too.
01:08:49You were pregnant, but then you left and never came back.
01:08:52I don't know what you're talking about.
01:08:54One of her friends Brooke disappeared and now she's dead.
01:08:57And one of my other friends is pregnant and she just went missing too.
01:09:01We're just worried for her.
01:09:03Look, I'm sorry, I've got nothing to say.
01:09:05Please, okay, anything you say will help.
01:09:06Because we already lost one friend, we can't lose another.
01:09:10Anything, at all.
01:09:16Don't trust Rachel.
01:09:19I needed cash at the time, so I went with it.
01:09:24Be careful of Abigail.
01:09:26You know, Nicolette did mention something about a lady from an adoption center who came by.
01:09:32Is that...?
01:09:33Yeah, Abigail runs the agency that Rachel referred me to.
01:09:37Like I said, I got my cash and I just went on with my business.
01:09:41But I've heard that some of the other girls, they don't have a good experience with her.
01:09:48Please, that is all I can say.
01:09:50I'm begging you, do not come back here and talk to me about this.
01:10:02Hi, I'm looking for Nicolette.
01:10:05Oh, she's not here.
01:10:09Oh, I was just worried about Nicolette when I saw her at the hospital again yesterday.
01:10:13You saw her again at the hospital?
01:10:16Yes.
01:10:17And she said she was coming back here last night and she had a ride scheduled.
01:10:21Well, she didn't come back here.
01:10:25I don't understand, how can you not know where she is?
01:10:28She was supposed to call me to come pick her up.
01:10:30Let me call the hospital again and get more information.
01:10:33And what else can we do?
01:10:35Try not to worry.
01:10:36I'm sure she'll be back any minute.
01:10:37Nicolette has a mind of her own.
01:10:41What are you not telling me?
01:10:43Nicolette told me that you set her up with the contact at the adoption agency.
01:10:48Is that normal protocol for your job?
01:10:51And that woman was here the night I dropped off some things for Nicolette.
01:10:55Perhaps this contact knows where Nicolette is right now.
01:10:59I have no idea what you could possibly be referring to.
01:11:05And I'm going to have to ask you to leave now.
01:11:17Ms. Ridland? What are you doing here?
01:11:20I came to check on Nicolette, but she's not here.
01:11:22Have you talked to her?
01:11:23No. No, not since she told me she was coming home and didn't.
01:11:28That's worrisome.
01:11:30What are you kids doing now?
01:11:32We just met somebody who was pregnant and left the group home of years back.
01:11:35All she would tell us was not to trust Rachel and this woman, Abigail, who she got referred to for
01:11:40adoption options.
01:11:42And Nicolette told me that the name of the agency was Loving Arms.
01:11:45I think I met that woman when I stopped by the other day.
01:11:48And Rachel is hiding something, I'm 100% sure.
01:11:52She's very on edge.
01:11:55Maybe what happened to your friend Brooke and Nicolette are...
01:12:00Are connected.
01:12:01Yeah.
01:12:03Okay, I'm gonna look up the address for this agency and go there in person.
01:12:07I will get this Abigail woman to talk to me.
01:12:10Well, can we do anything now, or...?
01:12:12Why don't you go talk to Detective Holmes about your suspicions?
01:12:16I mean, we don't have anything concrete yet, but maybe we can do some digging into Rachel and this Abigail
01:12:21at the agency.
01:12:23I'm scared for Nicolette now.
01:12:25Maybe we'll get lucky.
01:12:27She'll turn up on her own.
01:12:32Let's find them.
01:12:35What's up?
01:12:51Hi, I'm leaving.
01:12:53I've been driving.
01:12:53I've been driving up for $50,000.
01:13:02You need to eat and stay hydrated.
01:13:04You have a long journey ahead of you.
01:13:05What the hell are you people going to do with me?
01:13:07Calm down.
01:13:09It's important for the baby.
01:13:10It's hard to stay calm when you're strapped to a bed against your will.
01:13:14Don't worry.
01:13:15I'll take care of you.
01:13:20And what are you going to do with me after the baby's born?
01:13:26Eat.
01:13:50Hi.
01:13:52May I help you?
01:13:54Hi.
01:13:55We met at the home where my student Nicolette lives.
01:13:59Yes.
01:14:00Nicolette.
01:14:01What is this concerning?
01:14:03I'm sorry.
01:14:03I'm a little confused as to why you're here.
01:14:05Oh.
01:14:07Nicolette didn't make it back to the home last night from the hospital.
01:14:11Oh.
01:14:12I don't know anything about that.
01:14:16Have you helped set up adoptions for other girls at the agency?
01:14:20Oh, well, a couple.
01:14:22Sometimes young women who need guidance.
01:14:26I am sorry, but I'm going to be late for an appointment.
01:14:31Fine.
01:14:32Thank you for your time.
01:14:51Let's just see where you're headed to next.
01:14:55Alex, listen carefully.
01:14:56We need to move our guests to a new location before our partners come for the pickup.
01:15:00Too many people are asking questions.
01:15:11Why in God's name are you in this part of town?
01:15:17Hi, Mark.
01:15:18Hey, babe.
01:15:19How are things going?
01:15:21Can I call you back later?
01:15:23Everything okay?
01:15:25You sound stressed.
01:15:25No, everything's okay.
01:15:27It's just been a day.
01:15:29I'll call you back later.
01:15:31Okay.
01:15:36Now, you're saying Nicolette never came back to the home from the hospital.
01:15:40Right.
01:15:41I didn't even call the hospital, and the nurse told me that she was released last night.
01:15:45Look, there have been suspicions regarding both your group home manager and the adoption agency.
01:15:51Brooke, Misty, and now Nicolette are all tied to this Abigail person.
01:15:55I'm going to talk to Rachel Medford as soon as possible.
01:15:59Believe me, I want to find out what happened to your friend as badly as you do.
01:16:05Please.
01:16:25What?
01:16:27What?
01:16:38What?
01:17:01What is this place?
01:17:03What the hell?
01:17:04Are you following me?
01:17:06Tell me where Nicolette is.
01:17:15Oh, I'm here.
01:17:31Hi, this is Sandy Ridling.
01:17:33We met yesterday at the hospital.
01:17:35Nicolette's teacher.
01:17:35Yes. Um, something big is happening.
01:17:40Uh, I, I, I'm just, I'm not sure.
01:17:42Mrs. Ridling, take a deep breath and tell me what's happening.
01:17:44Okay.
01:17:45I followed the woman that the girls were sent to as an adoption contact to some run-down location downtown.
01:17:52Wait, what?
01:17:53This woman, Abigail, attacked me when I confronted her, but I pepper sprayed her.
01:17:59I think this is where Nicolette is being held or something.
01:18:03Tell me where you're at exactly.
01:18:04I'm at, uh, 141 State Street.
01:18:08I'm, I'm going to go inside the building to see if I can...
01:18:10Do not go inside anywhere, you hear me?
01:18:12I'm sending help right now.
01:18:14Please hurry.
01:18:17Get cars to 141 State Street, possible 134 in progress.
01:18:21We've got a huge break in the summer's case.
01:18:23We've got a huge break.
01:18:27Yeah.
01:18:42Hit!
01:18:48Ah!
01:18:54Abigail, are you okay?
01:18:56Never mind me, just go in there
01:18:58and stop that woman from getting Nicolette out.
01:19:10Nicolette? Are you here?
01:19:12Yeah, I'm in here!
01:19:21Help, please!
01:19:28Oh, my God.
01:19:31How did you find me?
01:19:32Talk about that later.
01:19:34Okay, we have to get out of here.
01:19:36There are people that are going to come
01:19:38and take me to a different country,
01:19:39like God knows where.
01:19:43Okay, the police are on their way.
01:19:45Are you hurt?
01:19:46I think I'm okay.
01:19:48I'm scared out of my mind.
01:19:51We're going to get you out of here, okay?
01:19:53Okay?
01:19:55Step away from the girl.
01:20:01What is this for?
01:20:04Tape up her hands.
01:20:07I'm not going to do that.
01:20:25I'm not just going to stay here like a sitting duck.
01:20:28I'm not going to pee.
01:20:45I'm not going to be lined up.
01:21:02What's taking you so long?
01:21:03I'm trying, I'm just really nervous.
01:21:11Hurry up!
01:21:13Alex!
01:21:18Come on, come on, let's go!
01:21:28No!
01:21:38This is over.
01:22:11Hey.
01:22:12It's legal and official.
01:22:14We're a big family now, the judge signed off on it.
01:22:18Congrats, I'm really happy for you guys.
01:22:20I still can't believe that I get to call Mark and Sandy my parents.
01:22:23We're the lucky ones.
01:22:24I'll second that.
01:22:27I really appreciate you looking after Michael while we were at the courthouse.
01:22:30It's no problem at all.
01:22:32I mean, I said I wanted to be a part of his life, right?
01:22:36And, well, it took me a while to get acquainted to it, but now I'm all in.
01:22:41Did you tell Jake the other big news?
01:22:45Wait, have you been holding L on me?
01:22:47I've been accepted to the college of my choice,
01:22:51so I'll be heading there in the fall,
01:22:53but I get to stay here at home.
01:22:55That's amazing.
01:22:57So we can just be with our new forever family.
01:23:01And to think, this time last year,
01:23:03we were worried that we wouldn't have a family of our own.
01:23:05And now?
01:23:07We're blessed many times over.
01:23:12Mommy, sweet little boy.
01:23:14Mommy, sweet little boy.
01:23:17Oh, it's Vanessa.
01:23:18I'll be right back.
01:23:22Aw, he's an Angela little dude, isn't he?
01:23:25Hey, I was just gonna call you.
01:23:27How'd it go today?
01:23:31He's so strong.
01:23:33It's official.
01:23:34And you?
01:23:36My aunt's been approved to be my legal guardian.
01:23:39It looks like we're both finally home.
01:23:41I'm so happy for you.
01:23:44I'll call you later.
01:23:50How's everything?
01:23:51She's good?
